I am Jason Ellis, author of "The Awesome Guide to Life: How to Get Fit, Get Laid, Get Your Shit Together." Ask me anything.

Hey Jason/Tully/Will/Kevin/Jetta (...and I guess Hardcore)!

Are any of you aware of the part of Reddit dedicated entirely to your show? We'd love to have any or all of you guys come hang out with us.

That goes for any and all EllisFam members too!

Come kick ass at /r/JasonEllisShow!

New to Reddit, and I'm still not entirely clear what's going on here, but thanks, I think.

Dude is it gay to do an AMA?

Yes.

Electro Cock! of the WolfKnives here. Red Dragons! Thank you for telling us all the fucked up shit that has happened to you. You are an open book and fans appreciate it. I was molested when young and never even thought that it had an effect on me or it was worth talking to anyone about hearing you tell everyone about it has kind of let me talk to a few people about it and try to fix me!

Fuck yeah.

Do you still have any desire to come to Florida and help me kill these damn snails?

I'm a little bit over your snails. Sorry.

Do you think Rawdog regrets his giant wolf knife tattoo?

Shit never thought of that. Maybe. If he does, that's unfortunate. Those were fun times.

Ellis;

If you lost your dick in a knife fight; how would it affect your life?

I'd probably become a tranny. You gotta improvise.

[deleted]

Of course. I can do anything.

Why are you so mean to Wilson?

Because he's the link between me and the big bosses. We're the best show on satellite radio, and they don't act like it. So he gets caught in the middle.

First off, I have to say I respect both of your penises. Jason, What in the last five years do you regret the most? Tully, how many times do you bite your tongue and not correct something Jason says?

Ellis: I don't regret anything. There's been bad times, but I've learned from everything that's happened

Are you still getting your own Sirius Channel or did that fall through?

Sooner or later it's going to happen. Right now, I'm focused on taking over the music on the Faction channel. I would say that's one step closer, if that works out. Nothing good is easy.

Long time listener here! just wanna say thanks for doin what you do! Who has been your favorite person/people to have on the show so far and why?

I like Keith Jardine. I know it was just the other day, and maybe because it was unexpected, but he was a cool dude. Rob Corddry is always sweet. Bone Thugs were awesome. I'm sure I'm forgetting a lot of people. (Tully here typing. I'm also drawing a blank.)

Do you have the new Gnarkill CD?

No, I ate it. It tasted better than it sounded.

Any plans for a permanent 3rd seat in the studio, or just roll them in and out as you have been?

Probably keep it this way. Seems to be working pretty good.

If you could leg kick anyone, living or dead, who would it be?

my mom's husband.

Hey Ellismate, big fan. Couple of questions for you.

1) What's different about not having Raw Dog on the show now?

2) Who comes up with the majority of your bits? A lot of them are genius.

3) How do interns get on the show in the first place? Always been curious about it.

4) How fuckin fun is it to do Ellismania?

5) Where can I buy your book(s) online?

Red fuckin dragons Ellis.

1) I no longer come home to find dead penguins on my front lawn.

2) Me and Tully.

3) Will auditions them. Sexually.

4) It's pretty sweet.

5) Amazon etc. Pretty much the same way you buy any other book.

Who wins in a fight between 20 year old Jason Ellis and 40 year old Jason Ellis?

Me.

Hey Wolfmate, out of all your achievements in skateboarding, radio, and music. What would you say your greatest achievement is besides your kids?

The greatest achievement of my life is the radio show. It's ridiculous. It doesn't make any sense. It's like that movie, "Air Bud," where the dog plays basketball. That's how real this is.

[deleted]

Thanks.

Why do you like cumtard so much?

I don't. But he's stupid like us, and he wants it.

[deleted]

No.

Hi Jason! Big fan of the show! Now that you've made multiple bestsellers, are you going to continue writing? What's next for your career?

Also do you really hate The Offspring? They're like my favorite..

edit: beatsellers ha

I think me and Tully will write another book for sure. It's about his mother.

That's cool, man. But yeah, I really don't like them.

If you never did the radio thing, what do you think you would be doing for a job? Other than being awesome?

If I didn't have kids, I would probably be in porn.

If u could take a vacation anywhere, where would u go? 1) with just Katie 2) with your kids

The best place I've ever been is Tavarua, in Fiji. I think it might be the best place on earth. I don't even want to risk it and try anywhere else. I would like to have that whole place to myself and do some Johnny Depp shits.

Do you have any plans for more people for doing stuff with...?

Joanna was great. We'll do that again.

Jason, was it Andy Irons that you had to restrain on that surf trip?

Maybe.

the whiskey videos were a big part of me growing up ! i loved those guys, I got to meet Kearns once and he is crazy, whats your favourite memory from those days ?

Doing a variable kick flip indie dressed as Boozy the Clown. There you go: a non-drinking story from the Whiskey videos.

Thanks for doing this for your fans Ellis!

A few questions:

• Why do you hate Tully so much?

• Which was the better experience for you, being in movies or being on TV?

• This is probably too soon to ask, but any plans for a 3rd book?

I hate Tully because he is a vampire. And because he owes me money.

Movies are mega. But both are fun.

What is your dream pterodactyl?

That's a legitimate question. Rhonda Rousey, Mischa Tate, and...wait...that means three dudes, right?

We're going to your book signing on Friday in HB, CA.. we want to bring you a MEDICATED chocolate bar what's your favorite flavor? Thanks for doing what you do, we love to listen to you everyday at work!

Aren't most chocolates chocolate-flavored?

Thanks, but I don't really eat that stuff.

Any chance of taking the radio show on tour this year? Can't get away from my job to catch EM but would be awesome to see a live show.

Want to. I want to do a Canadian tour with Death! Death! Die! Unfortunately, it's not as easy as it sounds.

What has been your biggest challenge in life?

Huge fan by the way, your show got me through a lot of shit. Red Dragons!

Dealing with the past. Divorce wasn't easy. Well, the second one. The first one was sweet.

Are you guys still planning on coming to alberta this spring?

Want to. People talk. Who knows.

[deleted]

When Benji Madden gave me a birthday cake.

What is the best taco? Why?

El Compadre. Extra crispy pork. They are skilled Mexican craftsmen who have been making tacos for over 100 years, my friend.

Big fan. Been listening since demolition radio.

The show has had a tough time getting and keeping producers. Looking back, do you think there is something you could have done differently to prevent that? I think Jetta is great so far and everyone loves cumtard, I would hate to see you lose those guys.

I didn't know how to hire a producer, and a lot of people had no idea what was in store for them when they worked here. But through trial and error, we figured it out, and I think now everything should be just fine.

A hot girl (a good saintly girl, not a party chick) really likes me. How do I not fuck it up?

Be respectful. Be thoughtful. Don't be a dick. It's not that hard. Be honest. Be faithful.

The advice is really easy. Really the hard part is living it.

Who was your role model growing up?

Chris Miller.

How can I get a chance to fight in the next EllisMania?

Send in a three-minute video of you hitting a heavy bag, whenever we start taking videos for Ellismania 10.

Mr. Ellis, I’d greatly appreciate your advice. I’ve been listening to your show for four years now. You are among the three best people in radio- the others being Dr. Drew Pinski and Adam Carolla. I was hoping to be your intern this past summer (had talked to Will and Tully), until I decided to go to medical school in Texas (instead of California). I have wanted to start a radio show or podcast for a while now- and now have some fellow students to work with; however, I am not sure how to go about formatting my show. I’d like to have something new and original with an edge- but it seems that almost everything has already been done. (Loveline, Howard Stern, Jason Ellis Show) My only skill sets are my medical knowledge and some ability to rant and improvise with comedy. My two main concerns are that I will not have a big enough audience (to field calls) and that the material may get dull or repetitive over time. Do you have any advice for starting my own show? How do you keep your material fresh? Do you think that my medical background would be valuable or worth working into the show format? Thanks for your time and consideration. Both of your books have been great reads! Cheers!

Just throw yourself out there. Believe in yourself. Believe that the world can't get enough of Dr. Shock Jock. And then do it.

Dude is it gay if when I shave my balls I sit in front of a mirror and then when I'm done I masturbate while watching myself in the mirror?

Yes.

Jason, I've listened to your show for years and I have a ton of respect for you as a man, and more importantly, a father. I'm not a "biological" father, only a stepfather to two gorgeous kids that I wouldn't trade for the world. They have only been in my life for a few years (they are now age 6 and 7). Whats the best advice you can give regarding being an awesome father to them? RED DRAGONS

Sounds like you've already got it figure out. Just appreciate the time you have with them.

What would it take to get mike catherwood to be a permanent host on the show?

That's not the craziest thing I've ever heard.

Ellis! What is your favorite Metallica riff of all time?

Master of Puppets.

Whatever happened to Awesome World?

Played out son.

Ellis, after getting my knee scoped I've gotten fat and lazy. Any diet tips that'll help me cheat my way back to fitness faster?

Harden the fuck up. Don't be such a vag.

Ellis, you ever regret the head tattoo?

No.

Ellismate! Long time listener. You guys wished my son Dark Junior a happy birthday last year. I'll try to make it brief:

• 1.) Any ideas on the next Ellismania? I can actually afford to come this time!
• 2.) Any chance you guys are gonna bring back LouTallica Voiceovers?
• 3.) Any sweet, juicy movie roles coming up?

Probably no to 2 & 3.

I unfortunately don't have XM radio anymore, but you were the reason I kept it for so long.

There was a story you told years ago about your daughter bathing and you walked in to POOP EVERYWHERE. Anymore poop stories?

RED DRAGONS.

You'll have to read my new book.

Love the show. It's so hard to come up with a question because you're so candid on the show and in your book and you talk about everything!

What's your favorite thing about Twitter and who's your favorite person to follow?

Forrest Griffin.

Are you planning on taking over Howard Stern's time slot when he retires or leaves satellite?

Nope.

Hey Ellis! Wolfknives member Unlimited Bread Basket here, do you really plan on going to "The Dungeon" or that BDSM spot in San Fran with Fat Mike?

Not with Fat Mike. But yeah, I would go.

I know you always talk about how much you would like to be on television. As a fan of your radio show, I would love to see you on television doing exactly what you do on the radio. How have your recent pitches gone and could we expect to see you having your own show soon? (Please say HBO, please say HBO...)

I have no idea. I'm supposed to be pitching stuff. The book is blocking everything else out at the moment.

Love the show Ellis, easily the best part of my day!

On the next Death Death Die album, what musician would be a dream come true to work with? (Out side if Metallica, obviously they'd be at the top)

I am not dueting with Danzig, because that would make me look bad.

Eminem or Jay-Z?

Fuck yeah! Love your show, but I have to drive a company car now with no Sirius.

I guess the only question I have for you is if you have completely gotten your shit together now. I know you had been going through a pretty dark time and I just want you to know that I'm rooting for you

Thanks. I've never been better. I'm pretty mentally sound, for me anyway.

First of all thanks for the good times and radio to keep us occupied while blazing in the parking lot of our highschool instead of going to class. Second of all I remember watching the highest acid drop in on guiness world records tv show ages ago, do you wish you were still more involved in the skate scene? Fuck Shawn white.

Wolf knives all the way up in BC Canada mile 0 of the alaska highway. Stay up. Red dragons!

I would like to skateboard again, but I don't miss the skate scene. I'm pretty scene-d out. I just want to be the king of satellite radio, and then play with kids in a big backyard that has a skate park.

Haven't heard monkey news in awhile. When did monkeys stop becoming newsworthy, Jason?

I don't like telling the same jokes over and over. It feels weird and cheesy. That's the main reason I'll never be and standup comedian.

Guys, love the show. Been listening for at least 5 years and I'm pretty sure more. Ellis, you have been a huge inspiration to me. We are nowhere near the same person but I want you to know you're my Jesus. Tully, you've inspired me to be smarter and wittier. You're such a fuck head though and I love you.

I was sad to see Josh go but we all have to go our seperate ways sometimes and you could see it coming in the months leading up to it. Sad but what are you gonna do? Glad you guys have carried on and at first I wasn't sure if I would like the show without him but you guys carried on without missing a beat.

Just wannted to let you know how much your show means to me and us Canadians love you Tully, whether you want it or not.

TL:DR - Ellis, what's the best way to buy weed?

Thanks.

From the legal weed store. If your state doesn't have them yet, you should think about moving.

If you and Tully had never been paired up, who would be your ideal right hand man?

Nobody.

Love the show, man. Have you ever tried to get Phil Anselmo on the show? He's promoting a new album, so no may be a good time to do so. Red dragons, motherfucker.

Yes. So far no luck.

I'm turning 21 this March, and the one thing on my must do list this year is to go to Ellismania. I know it might not be happening in Las Vegas, but if it does, what must I do while I'm there?

Everything.

I showed my girlfriend an "Am I a slut?" segment.. she took it the wrong way.. what did I do wrong? #foreveralone.

You showed her the "Dude am I a Slut?" segment.

Ellis if you had to go back and had skateboarding hasn't been invented yet what would you do instead?

A surfer or a fighter. Something like that.

Do you get any hate mail regarding your radio show?

I don't think anyone sends mail anymore. But hate tweets. Hate Instagrams. Sure.

Oooh, additional question. Preparing for my first MMA fight at the end of 2014, at the age of 34. Any recommendations? My coach is a little woo-woo positive-thinking over-visualizing, and seems to be ignoring things like... diet, and sleep. Not very helpful!

If you're gonna fight at that age, you really want all your ducks in a row. If you're not sure about your coach, I would get another. You can't go into a fight questioning the guy in your corner.

Jason, I just want to say thanks for all the laughs. I've been going through a lot of bullshit lately, and listening every day has helped me say "fuck it." My question for you is, what advice would you give someone looking to get into radio, I've been told hundreds of times I've got a voice for radio, and that I'm pretty funny, but I don't know where to start. Would you or Tully have any advice?

I don't know how to do that either. Tony Hawk got me a job. Sorry.

Is Ellis going to answer any of our questions?

Answering as many as I can. Tully types with three fingers, and he's still way faster than me.

Jason, whats the craziest thing a diehard fan, has ever asked of you?

For money.

When you're working on a book, how does it progress? In spurts of typing/writing or with a set amount of time put aside everyday until you're done. Would you consider fiction or are your other creative outlets enough (DDD and your movies)?

I would consider all options. I think Tully and I could right anything. If we put our twist on it, it will probably not suck.

Writing process is basically I talk a lot, and then Tully shapes it into a book.

Any chance your third book will be a continuation of the first? Less self-help and more autobiography.

There is a chance of that. But there is also a chance that I will never write another autobiography again.
