Top Episodes Quotes
- “Now, again, if you've made a certain amount of wealth and don't want to be bothered, fuck it. I know a lot of you guys who are listening to this are way too young to know who Johnny Carson is. He was succeeded by Jay Leno, and then it went to Jimmy Fallon or whatever. When Johnny Carson was done with Hollywood, he was done. He walked away. He said, fuck this.“ by Ben Baller
