I have a weird relationship with Elon Musk.

When I was in the mental hospital,

I bought his book in, like, a store,

when I was out wandering by myself.

And then I tried to read it, and,

like, I thought I read the whole book,

but, you know, I was insane, so I basically,

I read, like, the first two pages 60 times,

so I knew exactly what kind of, like, octopus he ordered,

how he ate it, why he loves his Tesla so much.

I know everything about the two first pages very well.

And then I saw a Simpsons episode

where Homer became friends with Elon Musk,

so I kinda thought that it was a message to me

that I was Homer, and that me and Elon would become friends.

But we didn't become friends.

And how he's making flamethrowers.

(sighs) Fucked up.

He fucked me up.

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

Surstromming.

I remember when we went to, like, kindergarten,

we would go to this show,

and they would, like, let everyone smell surstromming,

and if you could eat it without vomiting,

then you'd get, like, this prize.

It's horrible, surstromming's horrible.

But it's a delicacy.

Swedish delicacy.

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

We met when I was doing a photo shoot for Calvin Klein,

and he was, like, standing outside,

and then I asked him for a cigarette,

and he gave me a cigarette, and then we smoked,

and then he was like,

Oh, so, do you wanna booze a little at work?

And he brings out this little bottle

and holds it like this, kinda like

some small, like, leopard call, like (growls).

I was like, Ah, no, I'm not trying to,

you know, I'm kinda, I don't wanna booze right now.

You know, I just woke up.

He's like, All right.

And then I was like, fuck, I just

disappointed Charlie Sheen, you know,

like, this is not good, so I was like,

Wait, Charlie, you and me, we should go on a bender soon.

He's like, Yeah, that's my boy, that's my boy.

And then he walks inside and his manager comes out.

She's like, Oh, hi, Yung Lean, how are you?

I'm good.

So, what's Charlie doing here?

Oh, probably his worst film yet.

It's called 9/11, and he's in an elevator the whole time.

(laughs)

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

His music is great, you know.

I won't really stand for his politics.

Not at all.

He kinda took black metal to where

Darkthrone couldn't take it,

to burning churches and killing people,

which is an extreme, but it's what we know

black metal for now, black metal from Scandinavia.

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

Underrated.

You can never have enough meatballs.

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

Yeah, vegans are, it's kinda like,

they just found out that they were, like, socialists

or something, you know?

That's all they wanna talk about.

And they really love it.

Yeah.

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

We have this tradition called Midsummer,

where we make this big, it's actually a uterus

from, like, branches and flowers.

When I was a kid, everyone thought it was a big penis,

'cause it looks like two round things

and a big thing in the middle.

But it's actually a uterus.

And then we celebrate fertilization,

and we dance around the uterus

singing, like, small, happy frogs.

That's the song.

♪ Sma grodorna, sma grodorna ar lustiga att se ♪

Yeah, and then you put, like, flowers under your bed

for, like, good luck to have, yeah, to have sex that night.

And that night, everyone usually goes skinny-dipping,

and nine months after, there's a lot of Swedish babies born.

(drum roll and cymbal clash)

Uh.

Yeah, take a minute for Ingvar Kamprad.

He just died, the creator of IKEA.

It's kind of personal to me, so.

No IKEA questions.

It's too much.

[Off Camera] Sorry.

It's okay, you didn't know.
