Yeah, but it's HIS toilet, you don't shit another's man's turlet to pieces, stink it up, that's so crass, childish. Not having your own ass in order when you leave the house is the sign of a total putz.

This is why I like Ian even when in a difficult situation, he still manages to be a good sport and keep the comedy going and the mood light hearted. I know he's got a wild child personality sometimes but Stav was really going in hard on him.

Ian is a genuinely irritating person.. if you have watched him on any podcast, it's pretty obvious that people do get irritated by him.

[@Menkii]

I think Ian definitely had a point with the donor call, I think the caller seemed like he might be having conflicting thoughts about the arrangement. Because if he truly didn’t care about the child at all, why else would he even think about telling his parents?

[@dremogul]

​@@Menkii he could just be worried about upsetting his parents? It really just depends on if you're assuming he agreed to have no contact. Ian is definitely projecting his own feelings onto the scenario too, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten sensitive towards the end there.

[@zanpakutoman4225]

I don't completely disagree with Stav, on the actual question. But, his donor argument seems very closed minded. I think depending on how involved/detached the donor wants and is allowed to be with the kid, then he probably shouldn't tell his parents at all. If either the kid or donor want to know about each other, have private conversations. Just refer to the kid as a friend's kid if the parents, donor, and kid are all around. There's still a chance something might slip and they'll find out, but the parents definitely have the least involvement with the kid so they'll just have to get over it. But, with how many times Stav has called out people for catching feelings for another person it's kind of wild that he can't believe a donor could feel attached to their biological kid. I don't have kids, but I'm pretty sure it could go either way. I'm sure a lot of people donate and are completely indifferent to the kid(s) lives. But, I could totally believe someone half heartedly donating and then meeting one of the kids they donated for and feeling more emotional than they thought. Especially, if the kid is older or grown and either look more like the donor or share some similar behaviors or opinions. Then it might hit the donor that there's a younger version of them that they haven't been around to see.

[@Kacey90]

@@MenkiiIan was just trying to voice a different(totally valid) opinion, Stav was being overly close minded, annoyed, and rude to him. It was just weird and uncomfortable to witness. He usually has pretty well rounded opinions and views on shit, so idk what in TF was up with the way he was speaking to Ian during that call specifically. I’m glad Eldis spoke up and voiced his point of view. I’m wondering if this was just a bad day for him, if him and Ian have some beef, or if that’s closer to the real Stavvy and the easy going super loveable guy we normally see is more of an act. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@katestimac4210]

re: the Sperm Donor: The agreement wouldn't be as simple as a conversation and a handshake. It would be outlined in a contract that all parties would sign and stipulate the permissible level of contact. It's likely that if he is good friends with the woman, they agreed they wouldn't ban him from ever seeing their child: he would visit on birthdays or other special occasions but have no legal parental rights and not be involved in the day-to-day. Regardless, the child is told how he was conceived and who the donor is. This is pretty common I don't understand what's so confusing.

@@2011fannypack Ian's perspective isn't that weird or absurd, it's actually pretty basic human nature, BUT, anyone who feels that way should absolutely decline to be a direct sperm donor for a friend. I declined the same offer for the same reasons - I didn't trust myself to be able to permanently detach myself from the idea of this being my child, and ultimately that wouldn't be fair to the couple who asked me to donate. Even if this guy does have a bounded-relationship with the child, he needs to keep his conservative old Catholic parents out of this entirely because there is ZERO chance that they are as understanding and chill about it as he is. Decent chance they ruin the mother's fucking life about it.

Sometimes I realize he had a good point way after an argument because I never give him credit for potentially understanding things in a way I haven’t.

[@thatdixierasta]

Agree with Ian at the end there. He doesn't articulate his point the best, but Stavvy completely ignores the concept of biological parents. Many children of adoption, sperm donation, etc grow up wanting to find out more about their biological parents. There is something innately within a lot of people to want to know where they came from. Similarly, I think most people would find it hard to disassociate completely from the situation described here and I'd imagine the caller seems to think his place in that kids life is more than a simple donor if he feels the need to explain it to his parents. None of that negates the fact that the parents that raised you are also your parents.

Telling a comedian that he's bad at comedy is the most hurtful thing you can possibly do. It doesn't matter whether Ian's good or bad at comedy; this is an atrocious way to treat your guest. The laughter was a thin veneer to hide sadistic bullying. Listen, I'm Greek; I wish Stav wasn't being a jerk, but he was! Also, Ian's definitely funnier than Bert Kreischer. Do you think Stav would ever dare to say that Kreischer isn't funny?

[@patriciad.2636]

Re: sperm donor. There was a previous episode where some guy called in and was plagued with guilt about essentially donating his genes and his progeny now is wondering who his Dad was, has his mannerisms and looks like him. He wanted to tell the kid the truth. I side with Ian on this one in some respects. Stav just doesn't care as much about his own father/son relationship to understand.

[@mikerosa1990]

At 23:42 Stavvy speaks with root beer in his mouth without spitting it out...legend

[@borkborkbork]

Stav clearly has 0 respect for Ian and relentlessly bullies him here. It comes across as mean spirited instead of light hearted ribbing

[@Justcarlosdiaz]

Stav is completely correct about the donor thing.. everything Ian is saying is stuff you discuss BEFORE you donate your sperm to your friend.. if you made an agreement not to be involved, then you absolutely should not be involved. Telling your parents is not smart because they will obviously want to be involved

[@bobslobbins2864]

the premise of Recine's podcast, and the intro, are maybe the funniest podcast concept/intro I've ever heard.

[@emilygalen9057]

Recine has one of the cutest smiles out there it's crazy

[@KrakoaForAll]

There's officially more Stav distributed horizontally across the close-up shot than there is vertically.

[@ADPax10]

Yuri's Jew-Killing Frogs would've definitely been a single-season masterpiece on Adult Swim in the early 2010s. When AI is good enough to make entire television shows from nothing, I'm plugging that in

[@mikkelsmauritzen4590]

Stav needs to stop hating on Ian

[@garrisjones7476]

Dude - there IS a gritty remake of TMNT. It’s called The Last Ronin, and it’s about the only surviving ninja turtle getting revenge for the death of his family.

[@bcrow]

Ian is the fucking man. Guys got a PHD in bringing joy to a room.

[@jmb.....]

Ian Fidance's rapid transformation into Rich Vos is astounding and hilarious

[@kennethrudibaugh]

Ian just does the Dave Chapelle Charlie Murphy shoes on the couch bit for 2 straight hours in front of our very eyes 😂😂

[@UnCleT215]

Stav's Neck has officially dipped below the horizon.. its gone.. Chin to Chest

[@meganlipke556]

First time I’ve ever heard so Stav mad and annoyed. Either they are bffs and he’s just done or he doesn’t like him

[@mattmunny3253]

Yeah Stavvy’s bullying of Ian is getting old - Stav went full intellectual fragility and I agree 100% with Ian…for Stav to completely disregard biology, hormones, human emotions, and connections… while calling Ian basically an idiot arguing semantics was weak. Without giving any credence to the fact that hella adopted children and bio parents want to know eachother. Even sperm bank kids often look up and find their real father, you never know. As a man with no kids, Stav acted the expert with absolutely zero reason. If you have a child out there, if you’re a healthy human with a normal range of emotions, you’ll think about a child you have out there. It may not be “his son” but it’s still his child, always will be…regardless. There will be a connection and it’s equally his right to disclose information to his own family about his actions. Weird take by Stav

[@impossiblegems]

I agree 💯 %

[@emu_warrior]

Yeah Ian says dumb stuff, but Stavvy' is way too much of a bully. He's not making jokes that they are BOTH in on it, he's making nasty jokes to hurt, which is just bullying.

[@JP-yf7hr]

Thank you for standing up for Ian. He needs all the help that he can get

[@SuperBrentendo89]

Dude I just got to this part in the podcast and came to the comments to say something about it. Stav being so ridiculous and stubborn about this while Ian is making perfectly logical and reasonable points.

[@haterade5137]

That's just a stav take. He's been woke since cumtown

[@kingofoblivion1822]

I agree with Ian about donating sperm to a friend and seeing that kid day to day knowing that’s your child and you have to pretend that he has no connection to you at all. There would still be in the back of your mind that that’s your child

[@MrFraknak]

It's not your child. You're not raising it. It's biological. The same point applies. You're arguing semantics and not the point.

[@fredko4293]

You’re not even considering the Lesbian friend and what SHE wants. It’s not your place to reconsider years later, sorry. Pretty selfish to turn back on an agreement, you as a donor agreed to what you agreed to.

[@fknutz4400]

What connection does that child have to you? That's not a connection, that's a piece of trivia

[@milosv4142]

@@MrFraknak "semantics" was non-argument. Ian is right. It's not debate whether it's legality or biology that constitutes someone's ownership over child. It's obviously both in different sense, but acting like you would just deny biological aspect while hanging around that kid growing up is delusional. I'm surprised that Mike, having a child, thinks that way. I think child growing will change his mind. It might not be that dude's child, but it's his descendant. Maybe, just maybe Stavy would be chill about it. Maybe I would too. But even if so, I don't think that that's how majority would feel about it, and Ian is not the odd one regarding this issue.

[@patrickzebra9972]

I agree! also don't really see anyone asking what would the child want ? Most people want to know where they come from.

[@ajx16]

I rotate between feeling bad for Ian and then thinking holy shit he is so dumb sometimes

[@doctor86gonzo]

Difference of opinion or perspective isnt dumb. He is a lot more complacent than most of the mic-jockies heavy breathing into their oblivion

[@InspectorButters4]

Ian and Stav have the same thing as Ian and Luis 😂😂😂...... no matter how many times they say "let's get along today", it always ends in arguing and 💩 on each other lol

[@Ray_D_Tutto]

They are all the bottom of the totem pole on their respective podcasts so when they show up on each other's there is this weird dominance thing to see which one is gonna be the punching bag.

[@hudsonburgess6129]

“We don’t have ten minutes for crowd work that goes nowhere” 😂😂😂

[@codyroberts2929]

The god protecting Ian's father from him being gay but was pure Gold!! Hahahah

[@TheWorkOver]

Stav not even willing to let Ian get his opinion across lmao

[@cptghostmaker]

Stav is going to need that toilet paper after shitting on Ian for 2 hours, hilarious.

[@helpis0ntheway]

I love when Ian & Recine are guests on any pod but this one had rolling all the way through. So funny!!

[@JorgeADiaz-gv8wn]

Hell yeah dude the hosts of the Adam Friedland show finally

[@xXxJonnyLavaxXx]

Ian is letting Stav have the upper hand. Fight back with conFIDANCE!

[@brookef217]

We not only get Ian, we get Recine AND the episode is over 2 hours long?? What did we do to deserve such blessings?

[@Logicalization]

Unfortunately Ian is here. But love Mike Recine.

[@cdawg3551]

This is definitely Ian's burner account

[@HardRruben420]

The fact that both Ian and stav share the annoying trait of over talking anyone or on all the calls .

[@theemiester4090]

I like how Stav does not acknowledge that he could potentially be projecting as well. Full respect to Mike Recine for doing his best to make sure the conversation is light hearted

[@brandongibson3444]

Shoes on the couch is while someone is roasting u for disrespecting their house is unhinged.

Being 400 pounds overweight is unhinged

classic Ian Fidance

[@GordonCaledonia]

That bugged the shit out of me, too, that clown wasn't raised right. Odd looking guy, too, like your stereotypical raincoat flasher from 1962.

[@boxesofstuff]

As if using their restroom as a guest is disrespecting their house 😂

[@GordonCaledonia]

@@boxesofstuff In Scotland, shitting in your friend's house is a party-foul. I was shat in my friend's new house and he wasn't happy, it stank up the downstairs turlet. You should always shit at home or a public turlet before you enter a house. If you go to a dinner party and _Dumb and Dumber_ their bathroom, no one might say anything, but you'll forever be., "the guy who shitted and stank up the bathroom." Toilet Etiquette 101.

[@ltsgoyanks]

It's not semantics.. I agree with Ian on this one... can't believe I said that...😂
