0:00 So exotic dancer did a pole dancing tribute in front of the exhumed remains of the nightclub that she worked at boss who had been dead for 30 years and basically she does this in front of two coffins one of them is the male owner who died 1993 and the others is recently deceased wife who took over for the the club and she wished to have the the lady wished to have her ashes spread with her late husband so they dug him up and then the stripper did this. >> It's so sad. >> What the hell? That's her way of paying tribute? >> Yeah, and these are the two coffins right here. >> Well, are all the attendees stripper? It's not even good. >> Right. >> Damn, it isn't good. >> [laughter] >> But we're spoiled. We're in freaking Vegas, man.

0:50 >> And we had Jumbo's and all that. >> That's how we >> [laughter] >> paying tribute? What the hell? People are ████ crazy. >> Right? And her p████'s out and everything. >> I [snorts] guess it's appropriate. >> You think? >> If there if it was ever >> If it's you know like stuff like that when it's within that world. You know like when when Krumpers do that ████ or ████ dancers go in front of their grandma's coffin and start freestyling. Like that's >> Oh, really? >> I swear to God that's like so cool to them but you know. >> That sounds really funny. >> Hey, to to each their own. >> You know you know people be doing that ████ >> The however you mourn, you know? >> They doing that tears in their eyes and ████ All right. >> I mean I So you think she has tears in her eyes? >> What is Okay, if they're a strip club owners all the attendees are probably tied to that world. >> Definitely. They're regulars. >> Probably really cool for them. Yeah. >> If someone was

1:41 like I don't know like a comedy club owner and then everyone's doing stand-up at their funeral. >> Yeah, a little a little different cuz you're still saying some words, you know? But it's less tasteless I guess is the thing. >> But their whole industry is tasteless. >> That's true. >> Right. Well, no that's not >> Well, what what's not fair about it? Are you Wait, are you talking about experience here? This is where you get yourself in trouble. >> I'm talking about how I go to all the strip clubs and ████ all the ████ >> Oh, come on, we can't say that. That being said though, uh >> [laughter] >> there's also the funniness of like like maybe they have a son who now is the owner of the strip club. Right? It's just like mom and dad are are dead and this to him is really like a good idea. >> It's sick, yeah. >> It's like a really sick idea. >> This is like a Danny McBride character. >> [laughter] >> Right? It's like, "Dude, mom and pop are going to love this." >> Well, have you ever seen

2:31 >> ████ beautiful. >> those funerals where like a motorcycle guy died and then so all the guys lined their bikes up and they just all start revving while they're like crying and ████ You seen that? >> Kind of tight. Kind of tight. >> that's tight? >> that's fire, actually. >> There's like a line though. Like I think once you get to like >> Sexual stuff? >> you're like it's kind of Yeah, like if you're if you're a porn star and then like the main director you warned I mean you worked for passed away, do you >> have live sex in front of his coffin? >> do you do that? >> Let me ask you this. If the guy we're talking about wore shirts like FBI Female Body Inspector all the time and he dies and like the tribute is to have the strippers there, I think that's appropriate. Like that's who that guy was. He's just that kind of cat. >> And she starts rubbing her ████ and then she's like, >> Cuz in Taiwan, don't they hire

3:22 strippers? Remember we did that article where there was a funeral party? Or no, gogo dancers. But they look kind of like strippers. >> Hell yeah. >> Cuz they the the a lot of deceased like it's like a whole thing like have a party when I'm dead. >> Yeah, I mean it's it's it's their world, you know? We don't understand cuz we don't live that world. >> thing. >> It's hilarious though. Like it's like when you go to like a dancer's wedding and then everybody has to like ████ dance a certain way sometimes and it's like, "Okay, imagine a stripper's wedding." You think everybody's going to keep their clothes on the whole time? I don't know. I'm just saying I I could understand. I'm surprised they have their clothes on. >> There's There are some things where it just feels kind of cheesy. Like for example, let's say you go to a MMA fighter's funeral, right? If one guy goes up and starts shadow boxing, "This one's for you, man." >> No, but if they do a fight though. >> They're like, "What the f███?" >> But what if it's his like best fighter and everybody reveres that fighter?

4:14 >> Even if it was like Muhammad Ali or something? >> Would it be appropriate to have a fight though there? Would it be appropriate? >> It would just feel weird. >> Even then, like I think if it fits the theme and that's the community, my gripe is that it's not good. >> Yeah. >> Like It should be the best. >> Like if you had the the MMA guy >> and he's over there, but it's like a really terrible >> Maybe she's their best. You know what I mean? It's >> Like it was a small hole >> Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Like maybe for the one strip club there in like ████ Dayton, Ohio or whatever. >> no other thing. Like like for example, if Conor McGregor passed away, right? I would much rather see a Irish-themed funeral than a MMA-themed funeral. >> you're still talking goat ████ right now. You're still talking about people who are really, really iconically great. We're talking like if that was the best. >> What if you live in a small town and like most of them can't even get up on the pole? >> Holy ████ dude. >> You know what I mean? >> But she's the hottest one. >> And they're like, "She's the hottest

5:04 one. She can get up there." She had Holy ████ she gets up there. >> There's some skill levels that are so low, it's better to just go, "Let's just not do that idea then." You know what I mean? It's It's like a thing where if when you're exhibiting a skill, right? At a very unlikely place, it's almost a must and it has to be a high level. Or else you're just like kind of you're shaming all aspects. Not only the dead people, but your own art itself. You're like, "Watch how bad this is." >> If you're an attendee at this funeral, you prefer it with no dancer or with dancer? >> With dancer. >> With a really good dancer. >> No, this exact one right here. This exact >> Oh, no. I ████ that, dude. I don't want to see whack ████ >> I disagree. As a As a people watcher, this is my dream. >> I'd rather see whack ████ >> Yeah, me too. >> What? >> Yeah. I get I get let down. Like I went to a circus the other day and I was like, "Oh, this is It looked like a bootleg ████ circus." There's

5:55 like some guy on a dirt bike that's going to do a trick. I was like, "Let's go." But I was let down cuz the performances were too good. >> I hate that. >> It was so good. I was like, "This is Cirque level s███." And I find out Cirque people do perform. But it's a It's a s█████ little tent like pitched in a mall parking lot. >> Was it here in Vegas? >> It was in Hawaii. >> Oh, is this the same one that you were at when you posted? >> Yeah. >> And you go to it multiple times? >> It was so good. >> [laughter] >> It was so good. >> I prefer not to have >> Did it say by Cirque du Soleil? >> No, but I I met the circus like organizer, like the owner, and he's exactly how you would imagine a circus ringleader is. >> Hugh Jackman? >> Has a monocle? >> Like a Like a fat mafia boss. >> Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. >> And he likes to talk big and ████ and like super friendly. And but he's a showbiz guy, you know? Like in the movies you think of these guys in the

6:45 '80s like ████ running the show and Yeah, maybe he'd be friends with them, too. >> That's like when I go to If you go to karaoke and somebody sings really well, I just want to boo them. >> That's not karaoke. >> I'm like, "F██████ boo! Get out of here!" >> It's too good. >> Cuz that's not what karaoke's supposed to >> Nobody signed up for that. >> Karaoke's supposed to be fun. >> Yeah, it's supposed to be all inclusive, even. >> Yeah, you're not supposed to go up there and do Boyz II Men and sound exactly >> That's open mic. Open mic is not karaoke. >> Yeah. >> Thank you. >> Right. >> I just don't like that ████ And obviously you're feeding your own ego and ████ >> Okay. Okay, I can understand then if you want the whack uh strip >> I signed up for it. >> I think this is Well, that means this has got to be very karaoke vibe. So like maybe this is just the one that we're seeing the video. If everybody goes up and pays tribute on the same one pole, that's so honorable for him. And imagine every dancer >> strippers, I'm down with that. >> All the employees get give one dance,

7:36 one final dance. I'm like, Yeah, and I'm an attendee. >> Yeah, this funeral's way better than just crying. >> There was um at at the brewery where I used to live, there was a unit that was like um, I think it was all like pole dancers. And these girls had a initiative called like s- um, pole pole dance to save the forest or some ████ Like rainforest >> it. >> benefit whatever. So every time they did one of the art events and all the people would be in the brewery, they would do a showcase and I was like, "Oh, let's see like if they're actually like good." And we go in there, it's like the worst ████ ever. Like you're trying to save the forest with the worst pole dancing? Like it it's like >> Gives me that vibe of like before you can apply your talent, you got to get the ████ talent, man. >> I went to a burlesque show in Hollywood and then like it was the funny people watching stuff where everyone looked like by day they work out Walmart and by night they're going to put on lingerie

8:27 and think they're a star. And then it was funny at first, but then after like the eighth performer, I wanted to vomit. >> Damn, dude. >> Cuz it just I got to cleanse my eyes with something beautiful. Like have you ever s- it's it's almost like being in Skid Row, right? Like after a while you're just seeing so much garbage and like sadness. >> Yeah. >> And then I'm just like, this is like a freak show. At this point, I want to see normal people. But when I see that that's too much. >> Too much. >> Yeah, there's a there's a level of like people watching and you're like, "That was fun." And then you walk away. But then when you see like someone actually believing that they're going to be a star one day is really ████ >> Super fun. >> Yeah. >> Damn. >> Yeah, Jumbo's Do you guys remember Jumbo's Clown Room in in LA? It was like nobody gets nude, but they're all really good in the pole. >> Yeah, they're they're all like alt

9:17 girls, too. >> Yeah, all girls. It it was super sick spot, but like those chicks I mean, they smoked >> Oh, they're smoking her, yeah. >> Well, there's a difference between probably burlesque performer or like somebody who actually performs pole versus like normally she's seen when the guys are drunk, the lights are off, the music's loud, things are strobing. >> Yeah. >> Guys are horny. >> You know what I'm You know what I'm betting it is is my like ████ if I had to guess. I think the weirder the task is the more the people who are good are going to go, "I'm not doing that s███." >> Mhm. >> So, I think like you're pulling from like you know like the most eager to do it are the wackest ones. Cuz they just need They just need to be seen doing it. So, maybe that's your only options if you want to do it at a funeral. >> It's like how Peter Dinklage doesn't want to do ████ stuff anymore even though he's a ████ But like then but like I could hire midgets right now to like like come to my party and like you

10:09 know get on inflatable pool toys and ████ >> But then he's going to discourage that. >> Yeah. [laughter] Yeah, he'll try to take that away. He doesn't want any of them to work. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Can we hire um really fat people? >> Mhm. No. >> Can we hire really tall people? >> I think money talks, man. I think you could do anything with money. >> Right. But but there's always going to be the trash people who will do it and then the indignant people like he's talking about. >> Can you hire skinny really skinny people? >> No, I don't think so. >> Oh, you mean just hire them in general for like entertainment? >> Yeah, just to hang out. >> Like there's a website that's specifically about really skinny people? >> Yeah, like just like cuz you want to hang out with like short, tall, fat, small. >> you just do what he did and just do ████ casting calls. >> There you go. >> Can I replace you guys? >> Uh if you want. Yeah, we're pretty cheap. >> Yeah, you you could probably hire a guy who can remember the passwords to

10:59 everything. >> You could probably get a guy who could like move cameras ████ >> No, cuz after you said ████ I want to see a guy standing where you're sitting and and reporting the news. [laughter] >> I like I would like that a lot. >> Standing where you're sitting. >> I would like that a lot.
