When Chris said "Just years of waste" I completely understood.

Ian is a great friend to the island boys. Chris you're the man! I relate to you pretty hard and your humor keeps me laughing on my hardest days. I don't know what Tommy or any of us would do without you.

He's saying the inner monologs of all the 13 year old, first time stoners. The dude took shrooms once and booked a flight to the rockies the next day just to realize hes an idiot. Don't listen to him

These are the 3 unhinged men I need to remind me I'm not the only crazy one on a tumultuous Wednesday such as this

Productivity (or lack thereof) is something I mentally struggle with too. I always think of the Pink Floyd line, “And then one day you find, ten years have got behind you. No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.”

That line always hits me so hard. Also “Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time, plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines, hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.” I am 24. Trying my best to make the most out of these years before I wake up at 30 one day and wonder why I wasted my 20s getting shitfaced and doing blow. Nothing wrong with having some fun but I have been on a nonstop party since I was 13. Started actually focusing on my health and career and relationships like 2 years ago but I’m only really just now getting sort of good at actually paying attention to those things instead of just working really hard at that for a few months and then going back to my old ways. We all got this! Just gotta try to live the best you can and understand there will always be some suffering but if you worry about it all the time then you will constantly suffer. If you accept it you are free to live your life without fear.

stop waiting for someone to tell you what to do...

Chris doesn't realize we all feel like that and that's why we watch the podcast, to escape life and laugh for a little bit.

Wow I just commented the exact same thing almost word for word then scrolled down and see your comment.

These guys are just slow inching closer to their breaking points and it’s A+ content

Chris working his way around the “but” part might be the funniest thing he’s ever done/said…& he’s said a lot of funny thing.

15mins in and I've never related to anyone on a pod more. Chris is on one and I'm here for it!

One of the few pods that we don't have to skip an intro and plugs right off the bat

"White Trash Lighthouse" would be an awesome band name and definitely a T-Shirt idea!!!

Goddamn, I feel Chris's unhinged depression rant so much. If we don't jump off a bridge first I have hope that we can improve.

When I was 30 years old people in my family told me I had depression, I did not believe that or understand that at all because I had fun times and hobbies. Later in my life I realize how obvious it is that I've been living with depression for decades. I believe O'Connor is facing a similar dilemma. He likely has a mild and manageable form of depression and needs to recognize that so it doesn't spiral. Thankfully he has lots of friends and people who care about him in his life. I find him to be so funny and enjoy everything he does. As far as an O'Connor solo podcast, I would like to just see coffee with O'Connor. Where he goes out everyday just for a morning cup of coffee and shares it with us. As simple as that, that will be incredible. Maybe get a photographer. And when people piss him off he can rant about it, or if he's happy he can ponder his happiness. Anyway sorry for the long comment. Love the pod.

the image of oconnies looking out his white trash light house almost made me crash the whip

Ian is such a great genuine guy I feel like he brings out the best in people. Love this!

YEAR OF THE KNIFE ! hell yeah Ian.

Chris doing volunteer work reminds me of Paul Rudd on Rolemodels

Chris’s pause after him saying “the internet got me” is too great

Tommy and Finance are totally gonna bang after this episode. Chris is gonna go to his room and drink and sulk and Ian's head is gonna be banging against the wall in the room next door. 🤣

Dude 5 day sober sponge is sick as fuuuuuck 😂

Hell Yeah! You just got Fidanced! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

"I recorded in a closet and lived in a a attic" 😂😂😂

God damn that rant around the 19min mark had me fucking dieing!!!😂😂 Looking out the window like a spector haaha

"All those virgins...they come geared up." Hysterical.

Cousin Ian is the best, his podcast Bein' Ian is absolutely bonkos it's so fuckin funny. Hope you fellas had a good time over the holidays, congrats on the success of the podcast I've been following ya since day one and loving the show✌️ *Chris I know how you feel dude and I hope you get out of the slump soon. You've got an excellent support group of friends and I hope you don't shy away from leaning on them when you're feeling the monotony of life. Much love dude🙏

Tommy: "You ran a white trash lighthouse." 🤣

Damn do I ever feel O'Connies on this one. Also, Tommy's comment on the gym is spot on.

YEAH BABY NEW FIDANCE!!! LOVE YOU BOYS!!

The most consistently happy part of my week is when I see the Wednesday notification that a new stuff island dropped

I love the energy Ian brings to each and every podcast.

Dude, Chris. Get yourself a pair of new skates, some gloves and a stick. Seriously. I hung up the blades for a few years and when I got back out there it all made sense again.

Ian looks like Squints from sandlot with that hat backwards

i already know this is gonna be a great episode, fuck therapy! im so fucking healed

in madrid spain for new years freaking love these boys. stay up muh guy wherever you are.

Incredible episode! Started out ⛈️with a storm of emotions and ended with the snuggle of a robe. Great episode🙌🏽

needed this ep this week. good shit.

The Dark Sponge Rises

This episode features Ian going on an unhinged rant on how people use therapy incorrectly, then him saying “MYOB” mind your own business, classic Fidance 😂

My favorite part about this show is that it gives me an hour to just laugh and not think about life for a little bit. Keep up the good work!

Around 12.45 in to the show is why I love this pod. About this time watch how both Ian and Tommy lean in to actually hear what Cris is saying because they both really care and that's why I feel that this group of guys that moved down to Texas and the other bro's/dawgs , that they are different than other comedians. I know money is the main attraction but with these guys they want you to succeed with them and they don't freaking care if you make more or any of the BS . It feels like they know the money's going to come and the bigger their group is when comedy starts to come back to earth, the better in the long run they all will be. Sorry for the essay and 8 know this is an old pod but this was one of those pods when you get to see " the why" of it all . Thanks for a great podcast. Started watching Gillis stayed for The Shaman but ended up watching Tommy Pope and Cris O'Connell for an hour and loving every second of it . I watch you guys while I'm a work at the Port of Anchorge because it feels SOOOOOO good getting paid to laugh my ass off most of my shift.

I would love to see Chris on the Lex Fridman podcast, I feel like it would be an amazing conversation. He’d meet an intellectual match to get into his analysis of the world. It’d be gold.

Ian is off his rocker it's amazing

Tommy and Ian's joyous hug while standing directly in front of a suicidal O'Connie is simply hilarious.

another slam dunk boiz

This was deep

Chris "im getting goosebumps from the realness" O'Connor

I feel you Chris. I appreciate you speaking honestly

This podcast is great when your down.

Tommy your Wiki is fine. Nothing about your Delaware Job. Angry O'Connor is funny 😂

What an epic cast

Chris do your own pod. damn let this man vent

Met Ian in Austin when he opened for Attell. A gem.

Great episode to listen to while working through the night and pain from a car accident. I needed some PMA.

If I had to guess I think a permanent routine would help being "productive". Starting the day off right gives you momentum to tackle your goals for the day. I bet a lot of comedians struggle with this due to their work schedule. Take Sam Hyde's advice. If your work is as a self employed creative, you would be wise to approach your job in the same way a blue collar worker does

52:00 found this out the hard way on NYE lol. Decided to drink again for the first time in over a year and completely fucked my Sunday up. It was a perfect reminder though why I stopped in the first place.

The way this man has outbursts then the voice impression and high energy. Reminds me of dice in a way lol

Can we revisit the language conversation we had in the first Ian episode ?

29:05 they almost touch tips on that hug 😂😂😂

Alot of anger in this one

Yo, I know Ian's a hardcore fan, so it's not exactly a big deal for him to be wearing a band shirt, but definitely shout out that Year of the Knife tee.

Been listening since the beginning. This is one funny ass podcast

Chris is ready to escape the matrix

The McCuskers vs Stuff Island and Ian in Paintball 👀

Nailed it with the KZread search.

Morning pizza and night pizza 🤣🤣🤣 *The best meds available*

Ian looks like the wild thornberries

Robe Chris made my whole year

Damn, I can't believe how "sober" Ian is with his caffeine and nicotine and crazy textin thumbs! 😆

The pens just blew a 4-0 lead to the shitty Red Wings so I'm totally on O'Connor's vibe right now. Not sure if I'm supposed to use the 2nd or 3rd hole on my belt when I hang myself.

Good stuff!....island

We need O'Connor live from the Closet podcast back

God that Everest bit made me laugh

My bday is New Years Eve as well and it is a shitty day to do a birthday party since people have their own plans. I definitely relate to so much of what he said and am an alcoholic whos life imploded whenever i end up using/drinking.

Does anyone else see Chris as their evil spirit animal?

The ConnMan shitting on himself is my therapy.

50:54 O'Connor looking like a mom on Christmas morning

Shane: Everything you guys are saying is gay. Matt: Yeah, but it's pretty sick.

Fun podcast jeez

Goddammit I fully love Ian now, was already like 3/4ths of the way there but after only 10 minutes into him dropping nothin but hot facts, sheeiiiit

Year of the knife 🔥🔥🔥

Ian’s YOTK shirt is top notch.

Ian still hunting and pecking that keyboard... Swipe like a grown up already

The dawgs!

We need the old ocontacts back baby the first few episodes had me dying. Even if it’s just on the paytch.

Imagine, a huge ass boat.

Shout out Spud Shout out Billy 🌈💵

Shout out Ian. Thank you.

8:13 Tommy🤣

get chris a couple lax sticks and have a toss w him tom

O’ Connie’s pissed the fuck off is my spirit animal

Chris is so lost Ian could easily convince him he’s gay

O'conny is a reeeaal spud in the mud this ep. Holy shit man 🤣 the kid needs a real awakening. Listen to crazy uncle Ian. Maybe listen to some pissed off hardcore music as well, let out that dark irish hate and all that self loathing shit out 😂 lol 🤘👹🤘

All hail Shockwave
