4-28-26 You Think You've Got It Bad - Mr. Wang's Chopstick

You think you got it, Bat.

In this case, we're talking about a 46-year-old in China who's recovering in the hospital after a metal chopstick became stuck in his throat.

And this metal chopstick remained there for eight years.

What?

Doctors were stunned when the 46-year-old man identified only as Mr. Wang.

He came to the hospital complaining of severe throat pain.

Mr. Wang had throat pain.

An Exit Ray revealed a five inch metal chopstick lodged deep in his throat.

This is Mr. Wang with a five inch metal chopstick lodged deep in his throat.

Even more shocking is that Mr. Wang knew exactly what it was.

Eight years with the chopstick and that's a long time to wait to be able to cover the copay.

He's like I know I know what it is.

It's just I just didn't have the money.

I'm here now Yeah, he says at the time he felt choking and pain, but could still breathe That sounds like the condition that RFK has

He said he put up with occasional discomfort and mostly forgetting that the

chopstick was even there I mean

On his, on that side too, like how hard is a guy, a Chinese guy named Wang to understand anyways?

Let alone put a chopstick in his throat and just be like, learn sign language, bro.

I can't, I can't deal.

He said he got through it and they, the doctors found the chopstick could not cause major damage, but warned it could have injured blood vessels surrounding the tissue at any time.

Do you think there was

maybe something erotic?

Going on.

Oh, that led him to, I mean, how do you swallow the whole chopstick?

Well, I

just, I mean, there's some people that have that answer in this audience.

Yeah.

I like to

meet those

people.

They

can't at the No Apologies comedy show.

Come out.

Here's the thing.

If someone's shoving chopsticks down your throat, their throat, I feel like that is a little bit erotic.

I also feel like maybe maybe that's something you could even do for money.

Oh.

You know, there might be a market for that.

There might be.

There's only fans, right?

How about only sticks?

I'd subscribe to only sticks.

Is that the new grinder?

Yeah, it's- No, it's the new only fans.

It's the new app.

You get on there.

There's content.

There's a bunch of wangs shoving- shoving sticks down their throat, right?

Okay.

Yeah.

Introducing Only Sticks, the subscription platform where creators bring you nothing but sticks, drumsticks, chapsticks, selfie sticks, yard sticks.

If it's long and straight, and technically you're not, put a stick in your mouth.

Mmm.

Only sticks.

Why did the-

Von Mauer piano guy show up.

Well, you know, it's

you're looking for

love.

But you're looking for only sticks.

I feel like I'm looking for a Kate Spade purse right now.

I'm looking around Lindale Mall wondering why the entire mall is closed except for this.

Would you like some Chinese food?

They probably have that.

It's that bunch of kiosks, baseball

hats.

Come sit down with Mr. Wang.

He'll show you how to eat with a five inch metal chopstick.

I

love it.

You know,

It'd be, I know that Iowa city and Corville has had a little bit of tough times with, you know, losing the hockey team because they're taking time away.

I wonder if, you know, maybe basketball would be something that they could do there.

They

could, you know, you have the Hawkeye basketball.

When I was out in loss of Vegas, they're trying to get basketball.

Vegas is?

Yeah.

They don't have

it already.

They have.

WNBA, and they've had that for quite some time.

I used to film with the WNBA while I was there.

wasn't locker room footage.

No.

I don't think so.

Hey, it's Tom coming in.

All right, everybody, smile.

Yeah.

No, it was this guy now like pre-Katelyn Clark era.

So they've had WNBA and they've had hockey and now football.

And now they're talking a little bit of soccer, but they're talking NBA.

And I think MLB too.

But NBA, I think is the one.

I think that'll even maybe come to fruition even before baseball.

I

don't know

what yeah, cuz they're building that stadium, but I just I don't know it looks like a mess and I was just there and Yeah,

there's there's places

that the basketball can play they can just you know what I'm saying There's there's there's tons of space they

can upper level a circus circus.

Before I get into the thing I have for you, Russ.

Okay.

Manhattan Matt has something for you.

Russ, you give drugs a good name because you lose your memory more than enough for not doing drugs.

That's

from Manhattan Matt.

I've said it a million times as you age your random access memory gets slower and it takes More time to dig into stuff.

You really know, but you can't access it

Yeah, I mean I used to tell people all the time.

I know everything.

I just have troubles accessing it 4344 on the text line always the best part of my day is the crossover with you two guys, right?

Appreciate that.

Let's hear

According to a new study, the most expensive vacation destination in the country is Russ.

Tell your ride, Colorado.

Wow, came out of nowhere.

No, but think somewhere that could be snowy.

I'm thinking those those wealthy ski resorts have to be the, you know, most expensive vacation areas.

It's not Catskills or New York, right?

No,

well, not the Catskills.

New York does come up there as the second highest location to go for vacation New York City.

Who would vacation in New York City?

That's a horrible place to vacation.

I did.

I enjoyed it.

It was fine.

I mean, I'd go back once, maybe twice.

But that's just to get done the things I wanted to do.

Is Disney World?

No.

Because that's super

expensive.

One of the other places, I mean, the number one place you haven't lived in, but the third most expensive place to vacation is another place you've lived and worked in.

Boston?

No.

San Diego, Santa Barbara.

Santa Barbara.

Okay, yeah.

What?

Why?

Yeah, Santa Barbara is just stupidly expensive.

Okay.

Because Santa Barbara and Montecito are connected.

Montecito is where the Royals live, Oprah, it's it's mega mega millionaire territory.

And Santa Barbara and Montecito are pretty much the same town, but they don't allow us into Montecito.

Are the streets paved with gold?

Pretty much.

Okay.

We still haven't got the number one, though.

Number one.

I

mean, it's going to take a little bit to get there.

Is it a snowy destination?

It can be.

But you don't go there specifically for the snow?

I mean, it's probably not.

Okay.

You go there for the

fresh air.

Is it in Colorado?

No.

Utah?

Go further north.

Further north.

And it's in the United States.

Washington.

Further

north.

Seattle?

Further north.

Well, further north from Seattle is Canada.

Yes, it's attached to Canada.

Alaska.

Anchorage, Alaska.

Oh, come on.

Can you believe that?

I so want to do the summer cruise that goes up to Alaska.

Really?

Yeah.

Because summer weather in Alaska is nice.

Yeah, yeah.

And you get to see all the wildlife and the bears from the safety of a ship.

Hey, look, there's a bear.

Wow, cool.

Is there a point, though, that you would get bored of that particular type of cruise where you're looking out and, you know, you've seen your 15th moose and

look, I'm not.

100% sure, but I think you dock at several places and get off and experience the local culture.

I like it as a photographer.

I would love to take pictures up there.

So you'd pack the entire photography

rig, right?

Yeah, I would.

The big lens.

Yes.

What else

would you bring along?

I would buy some lenses.

If I'm gonna take that kind of trip, I want to get some birds in flight.

And for that, you need some super long lenses.

I would definitely.

And then for scenic shots, super wide angle lenses.

I mean, you gotta bring the whole bag.

You gotta bring the whole

bag.

Is the marine life up there?

There'd be like whales jumping out, do you think?

Yeah, but I have this thing where in life in general, I really don't like to get wet or dirty.

So,

hey, somebody please put that on a shirt.

I don't like to get wet or dirty.

My farming friends know that.

That's our next shirt.

Yeah, whatever.

It'll picture you Waving I don't like to get wet or dirty Russ.

Why they invented long lenses?

I don't know how you went inside the strip club.

Yeah

We're going in Drowning pool bodies and your double shot lunch that ties back to the top five Tuesday today, and that was the top six what metal

debuts of all time.

Debut albums.

I'm gonna play one song from each debut album, the top five greatest debut albums by metal artists of all time.

And the first song that's out the gate, my friends, I will say this one more time.

Wow.

Cool.

Russ is in next.
