• 3:26
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, a lot of times it I never really deemed it a comedy podcast, but of course I'm a comedian, and everybody I've had is comedians.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, but uh third times where like we just naturally say stuff that's funny, yeah, and like with Javi there, I was like, I want to pick his brain this whole time.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_00: And then when we went to break, it's like, yo, bro, when are we gonna get funny?
• 3:48
  SPEAKER_00: I was like, My bad, bro.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_00: I just it's cool to be able to pick your brain and everything because he was dropping some really good knowledge, yeah.
• 3:55
  SPEAKER_00: Um, so shout out to Javi, thank you for coming on the podcast.
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: Ronnie was there as well.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_00: Uh Javi made a comment about Ronnie.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_00: He goes, This is the quietest I've ever heard, Ronnie.
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_00: Because Ronnie, same thing.
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_00: Like, Javi was just dropping so much knowledge on it that uh both of us were just like soaking it in.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_00: Like, cause we're still young in the game.
• 4:14
  SPEAKER_00: I'm only two years and a couple months in.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_00: Uh Ronnie's a year and a half in, um, approaching two years.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_01: So you said two years, you're two years in?
• 4:23
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'm two years in.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: So being able to hear Javi talk about his experience, and he's over a decade in the game.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_00: It's uh it's it's like we we don't have school for comedy.
• 4:35
  SPEAKER_00: So whenever you get somebody that's like a quote unquote teacher that's been in the game and that's been tested through all of it, it's real awesome to be able to hear their stories and learn from it, you know what I mean.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_00: So uh shout out to Javi.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_00: If you want to check out the episode, episode seven, uh, you can look up Chris Linguadio comedy on YouTube.

  SPEAKER_00: Um, it's the That Dude Talks podcast, and it's episode seven with Javi Luna and uh with and Ronnie Fryer.
• 4:58
  SPEAKER_00: We called it a Luniversal Takeover because Javi uh has his own production that he calls Universal.
• 5:05

  SPEAKER_00: Uncle my boy, man.
• 5:08

• 5:11
  SPEAKER_00: He's my uh uh he's my pseudo.
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_00: See, people we have this running gag that Ronnie is not my co-host, yeah, yeah, but he's come out, he's been a guest so many times that he at this point should be.
• 5:24
  SPEAKER_00: But um Sam's already like a pseudo-co-host because he's my audio guy, and he'll if he's not on the podcast, he'll drop like a he has a mic off camera and he'll talk and everything.
• 5:37
  SPEAKER_00: So he's kind of my pseudo-co-host.
• 5:40
  SPEAKER_00: But um, shout out to Uncle Sam, man.
• 5:42
  SPEAKER_00: He's done a lot for the podcast.
• 5:43

  SPEAKER_01: It sounds like that dude's got some chops, man.

  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, Sam uh he and Corinne were part of the roast battle that oh yeah, that uh Joe Hillier's doing at uh the House of Rock, and dude, that that their roast battle Corinne won, but to this day, I think it's the best battle that they've had during that tournament.

  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it was uh I've never done hard drugs, but I feel like this is what people say, like what people say heroin is like.
• 15:48
  SPEAKER_00: They say it's like an over over intensifying feeling.
• 15:52
  SPEAKER_00: The first time that's what com but the first time getting off the stage felt like the first time I made somebody laugh, it was like I need this in my life.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_00: Oh wow.
• 16:01
  SPEAKER_00: Uh I I say that comedy saved my life because it got that dark whenever.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_01: You were super depressed, you were doing it in that hole, like you said.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, and then once I once I started doing this, like got out of that hole.
• 16:16
  SPEAKER_00: No, got that, don't ever, I'm very rarely at home now.
• 16:21
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, as opposed to where I was always wanting to be at home and like met a group of amazing friends, some of some of my closest friends now, because of this.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, yeah.

  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, wow.
• 16:33
  SPEAKER_01: So you dug it.
• 16:34
  SPEAKER_00: That's why that's why I put everything into it.
• 16:36
  SPEAKER_00: That's why I put everything into it because it it saved my life.
• 16:38
  SPEAKER_00: I it deserves for me to put all my all into it.
• 16:41
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, man, for sure.
• 16:43
  SPEAKER_01: Man, that's awesome.
• 16:44
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it makes me think about your podcast, which is what we're talking about next, man.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, it seems like you got your comedy thing going, and you're just like, okay, I'm doing this, and I know I'm gonna keep doing this.
• 16:56
  SPEAKER_01: And it's like you seem it feels like you seem like it seems like you have to you feel like you have to add more things to keep that going.
• 17:02
  SPEAKER_01: Is that is that another reason why you revived the podcast?
• 17:05
  SPEAKER_01: Because you had this podcast.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_00: I had the podcast years ago.
• 17:07
  SPEAKER_00: And the the reason it stopped is because my grandfather passed.
• 17:10
  SPEAKER_00: Oh that's why you stopped doing it.
• 17:12
  SPEAKER_00: That's why I stopped doing it.
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 17:14
  SPEAKER_00: Um the last episode I released of the first iteration of it, I released it literally right when I was leaving to go to Vegas for a trip.
• 17:24
  SPEAKER_00: Came back from Vegas, found out that my grandpa was real sick.
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_00: And then I just like at that point I started, I knew.
• 17:32
  SPEAKER_00: I knew.
• 17:33
  SPEAKER_00: So I started already like spiraling.
• 17:36
  SPEAKER_00: So I was like, I that's what stopped me from doing it.
• 17:40
  SPEAKER_00: But what the podcast is now is what I always dreamed of the podcast be being, because before it was audio only.
• 17:48
  SPEAKER_00: Um I wanted to do video, but I knew that something like this had like I had to invest in like getting a studio or finding a studio, and I didn't know this existed until like here recently.
• 18:02
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 18:02
  SPEAKER_00: So um thank you to Caitlin from the Annex.
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_00: Caitlin Shook, uh, where we record the where we record the podcast, uh, the Annex right down, right down the road.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_00: That dude talks.
• 18:13
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that dude talks podcast.
• 18:14
  SPEAKER_00: We recorded at the annex.
• 18:16
  SPEAKER_00: Um, she provided a space for us to record.
• 18:19
  SPEAKER_00: And once she once I got the green light from her, I told I asked Sam because Sam started doing the audio at Migalito, another comedian's mic.
• 18:29
  SPEAKER_00: Um, he has a mic at Tapology.
• 18:32
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, I saw Sam doing the audio there, and he was doing a really good job with that.
• 18:36
  SPEAKER_00: And I asked him, hey, will you be the audio guy on my podcast?
• 18:39
  SPEAKER_00: And once he said yes, and once I got the location, we hit the ground running.
• 18:42
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so it's it's it's been fun, man.
• 18:45
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I like your podcast.
• 18:46
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you.
• 18:47
  SPEAKER_01: I do I listen to I try to listen to every episode, but I at least hear like like 30 minutes of one of them, like that last one with Javi Luna.
• 18:55
  SPEAKER_01: I'm on already, I'm already on the second play of that one.
• 18:59
  SPEAKER_01: Um, but yeah, it's pretty cool that there's other comedian podcasts, right, in town.
• 19:04
  SPEAKER_01: I know uh the Slow Rose.
• 19:07
  SPEAKER_00: Slow Rose, is that the other sports with Rolling?
• 19:09
  SPEAKER_01: The other lady, uh Danielle.
• 19:12
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so baby mama, yeah, baby mama drama, or I can't remember what it was called.
• 19:16
  SPEAKER_01: I think uh sports are rolling, but yours, man, dude, definitely can see potential in it for sure.
• 19:22
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you, man.
• 19:22
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, man.
• 19:23
  SPEAKER_00: That means a lot, especially with like you've been having yours going for almost a hundred episodes now of hearing you say that, that means a lot.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_00: Cause yeah, I that's another thing I wanted to say to you is thank you for constantly reaching out and letting me know, like, hey man, I you're giving me props on what I'm doing, so that that tells me a lot.
• 19:40
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, dude.
• 19:40
  SPEAKER_01: It you could tell, yeah, too.
• 19:42
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I think it's encouraging for people that are just starting out because it seems like you're like, I know I need to do something, I'm gonna do this, and I'm just gonna do it right.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and you're figuring it out along the way, which is a lot of how life works.
• 19:55
  SPEAKER_01: Would you say that?
• 19:56
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I uh I was at a weird point where if I didn't start doing it, I was never gonna start doing it.
• 20:06
  SPEAKER_00: So I was like, let me, I need to figure out how to do the video and audio right.
• 20:11
  SPEAKER_00: And I was like, no, you know what?
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_00: Let me do the first episode.
• 20:14
  SPEAKER_00: And I think it took to like the third episode to where I finally got it.
• 20:17
  SPEAKER_00: It's still not a hundred percent, but now it's like it's a lot, it's it's a lot better than where the first episode was.
• 20:24
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 20:25
  SPEAKER_00: So um, and I take a lot of pride in what I do.
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_00: I take a lot of pride, whether it's like normal life situations, like being an uncle, being uh, or with comedy, delivering packages, delivering packages, uh the podcast, my comedy with everything.
• 20:44
  SPEAKER_00: I try to like I take a lot of pride in what I do.
• 20:47
  SPEAKER_00: I didn't want to half ass any of it.
• 20:49
  SPEAKER_00: And with the podcast, it's the next thing I want to figure out is lighting because I'm so dark and I'm in that corner.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_00: For sure.
• 20:56
  SPEAKER_00: I'm in the dark corner, so I uh the next thing I want to figure out is the lighting.
• 21:00
  SPEAKER_00: But I have a lot of goals with this podcast, yeah, for sure.
• 21:02
  SPEAKER_01: Man, when I uh so I was doing Zoom first, Zoom meetings, yeah, yeah.
• 21:07
  SPEAKER_01: What the first episode in here, bro.
• 21:09
  SPEAKER_01: Once I did the the like the first set of clips and put it on social media, I was getting all kinds of like uh feedback, people I had never heard from in a in a minute.
• 21:17
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, hey dude, what do you got a podcast?
• 21:19
  SPEAKER_01: Wow, you made it this and that.
• 21:20
  SPEAKER_01: I'm like, what are you talking about, dude?
• 21:21
  SPEAKER_01: All I did was go into a studio, yeah, you know, pay pay the fee for it, and that was it.
• 21:26
  SPEAKER_01: And they're thinking I'm like like I made it or whatever, but I so my the perception is like the presence, the package, all that stuff makes it it makes a difference, you know what I mean?
• 21:38
  SPEAKER_01: So you noticing that and changing it along the way, that's big, dude.
• 21:41
  SPEAKER_00: And I was I was under the impression for the longest time that for a podcast to look good, it has to be multi camera.
• 21:54
  SPEAKER_00: Um, because like yours, yours is multi camera, and I really like that a lot.
• 21:57
  SPEAKER_00: The Joe Rogan experience multi-camera.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_00: Cam.
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_00: Um I want there's a lot of uh podcasts that I watch that are multi-cam.
• 22:06
  SPEAKER_00: But I'm a real big fan of Shane Gillis, uh comedian and Matt McCusker.
• 22:12
  SPEAKER_00: They have a podcast called the Man and Shane Secret Podcast.
• 22:16
  SPEAKER_00: The top two biggest comedia uh comedy podcasts in the nation.
• 22:20
  SPEAKER_02: Wow.
• 22:21
  SPEAKER_00: And they have always been a single shot podcast.
• 22:24
  SPEAKER_00: When I first started listening to it, I was audio only.
• 22:28
  SPEAKER_00: And then I started watching it.
• 22:29
  SPEAKER_00: I was like, yo, they figured this out with just a single shot.
• 22:34
  SPEAKER_00: I don't need to do a that's another thing that kind of like discouraged me because I doing editing single shot alone is already a lot.
• 22:42
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 22:43
  SPEAKER_00: And then editing multicam, I was like, that kind of stopped me from doing video for the longest time too.
• 22:48
  SPEAKER_04: Wow.
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_00: But then once I found out, hey, it can look you, there's a way to do it with the single shot, and it doesn't look bad.
• 22:56
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 22:57
  SPEAKER_00: And it I was like, okay, this actually looks really cool.
• 23:00
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, well, not only that, like what's what's bringing people to my long form is the clips.
• 23:05
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I needed I need better.
• 23:08
  SPEAKER_01: But so yeah, like you can have these single shot.
• 23:12
  SPEAKER_01: You say your whole entire thing is single shot.
• 23:14
  SPEAKER_01: You got these clips flipping from one part of the the image to another part of the image.
• 23:19
  SPEAKER_01: If there's two people, three people, whatever, yeah, which is on there on the clips, right?
• 23:24
  SPEAKER_01: And then if they like it, then oh uh episode seven, that do talks, boom, YouTube.
• 23:29
  SPEAKER_01: Then there's the whole full version, yeah.
• 23:30
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
• 23:31
  SPEAKER_01: And then it's single shot.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_01: If they're really interested in it, they're lipping to it.
• 23:36
  SPEAKER_00: I need to look more into that because um, yeah, the way y'all do y'all's clips, it's it's awesome.
• 23:43
  SPEAKER_01: Appreciate it, man.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_01: I I mean I'll drop some gems, I do it myself.
• 23:46
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I use Opus Clip.
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, okay.
• 23:49
  SPEAKER_01: But I don't depend solely on it, like I still have to go through there and sift through which clips I want to put out.
• 23:54
  SPEAKER_01: So there's still work you have to put into it.
• 23:56
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, don't like have it, don't rely heavily on the AI or whatever, but it it generates the captions.
• 24:02
  SPEAKER_01: I can put the logo on the corner, I can figure out which which clips I want to put out there and and send them out there, you know.
• 24:08
  SPEAKER_01: But that's what's getting people to the long form version of the podcast.
• 24:11
  SPEAKER_00: Nice.
• 24:11
  SPEAKER_00: I yeah, I definitely need to do that because I was screen recording and then cutting it, and then putting just like widescreen videos.
• 24:23
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, dude, this doesn't look good, yeah.
• 24:25
  SPEAKER_00: But so yeah, I need to look into Opus Clip.
• 24:27
  SPEAKER_00: I've heard some good stuff about it too.
• 24:28
  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, dude, I look into it for you.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_01: That's cool, bro.
• 24:31
  SPEAKER_01: So you got the that the that dude talks podcast.
• 24:33
  SPEAKER_01: Sorry, sorry.
• 24:34
  SPEAKER_01: Um so yeah, so real quick on that, the la I guess the last couple things I asked.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_01: Um, so what's the uh so what's the main goal with with your podcast?
• 24:42
  SPEAKER_01: What what's the main thing?
• 24:44
  SPEAKER_01: Um objective, I guess.
• 24:47
  SPEAKER_00: So I have really big goals with this.
• 24:50
  SPEAKER_00: Um I love the annex and I love that being the home for the podcast, but I don't want it to always be the permanent home.
• 24:59
  SPEAKER_00: Uh once hopefully, if of course it's a big dream, but when it does start generating revenue, if it does generate enough, I do want to get my own studio so I can so I can freely paint it, decorate it, or whatever.
• 25:15
  SPEAKER_00: Do do me.
• 25:17
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
• 25:18
  SPEAKER_00: Have have my have me in this.
• 25:21
  SPEAKER_00: Because like my merch, it's me.
• 25:23
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.

  SPEAKER_00: Uh like everything that like I want it to be me.
• 25:27
  SPEAKER_00: That's cool.
• 25:28
  SPEAKER_00: So I eventually want to get to that.
• 25:30
  SPEAKER_00: Um I want to eventually once uh they start doing shows again down here, because uh for whatever reason shows have been on a hiatus down here.
• 25:40

  SPEAKER_00: It doesn't hurt to throw out and ask, hey, if you're not doing anything during the day, do you want to film my podcast?

  SPEAKER_00: I'm a comedian.
• 28:11
  SPEAKER_00: Of course, I it's cool that people think it's a comedy podcast, but I'm not sure.
• 28:14
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, that's what I was gonna ask.
• 28:15
  SPEAKER_00: I'm not always gonna have just comedians.
• 28:17
  SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna have like I'm I have some of my homies that like are just the homies that I travel with.
• 28:21
  SPEAKER_00: I go, I travel and go just have them on there and shoot the shit.
• 28:24
  SPEAKER_01: You know, and like you know, and I really don't see it as as I want to say I don't see it as competition because you're different.
• 28:33
  SPEAKER_01: You're I'm not you, you're not me.
• 28:34
  SPEAKER_02: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 28:35
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
• 28:36
  SPEAKER_01: You have your story, your the way you do podcasting is different from my the way I do podcasting, and some people won't see it that way.
• 28:42
  SPEAKER_01: They they'll see you as like, oh, he's he's uh I don't want him on my show because he has a podcast like mine.
• 28:48
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
• 28:48
  SPEAKER_01: That's the whole reason why I want you on here.
• 28:50
  SPEAKER_00: They grow each other.
• 28:51
  SPEAKER_00: That's the thing about like that's the thing where competition is or the people that are super competitive.
• 28:58
  SPEAKER_00: I get it, I'm super competitive.
• 29:00
  SPEAKER_00: Of course, I want to be the one of the best comedians out there, I want to have one of the best podcasts out there.
• 29:04
  SPEAKER_00: I'm competitive, but at the same time, don't let the competitive nature stop you from doing stuff because yeah, people that don't know I exist are watching this right now and are gonna, and people that don't know, like my people that I have on social media that may not know right that about your podcast, like we're mutually people are learning about both of us at the same time, and that's how it should be.
• 29:28
  SPEAKER_00: Dude, that's how it should be.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_00: That's should be right, and that's where like people like people have a weird mindset with that, and I'm all about yo, let's all love each other and let's all grow together.
• 29:41
  SPEAKER_00: Let's all like we're there's so much talent in Corpus, not just in comedy, but music and every filmmaking.
• 29:49
  SPEAKER_00: There's so much talent down here that if everybody was open to like working with each other, yeah, corpus itself would grow right in the entertainment side of it for sure, man.
• 30:00
  SPEAKER_00: But you have so many people that hate each other in the background and everything, and like it's just every time somebody is going up, it starts getting brought down, and it's and it's in every industry, and you see it.
• 30:11
  SPEAKER_01: You see, that's why I think it's important to draw the draw a line if you need to like set a boundary, yeah.
• 30:16
  SPEAKER_01: Because some people excuse me, I feel like some people like feel not obligated, but like entitled to come on my podcast.
• 30:25
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and I've had reach people reach out.
• 30:27
  SPEAKER_01: Remember, I send you that video that one person, you know what I mean, that felt a certain way about my podcast, wanted to come on or whatever.
• 30:33
  SPEAKER_01: But I know now coming to a hundred episodes, I need to start setting boundaries and be like, maybe I don't want them on my platform because I have a mission, I have a vision.
• 30:42
  SPEAKER_01: This is where I want my podcast to go, which is basically uplifting people, uplifting people like yourself.
• 30:48
  SPEAKER_00: And then it's also hard to like you don't want to be the bad guy and like tell somebody uh you don't want to tell somebody like you can sit up, just pull that chair, so just move it to the side.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_00: That yellow one or two you feel like the bad guy telling them that they're not like yeah, I feel weird, like I feel weird that if I don't ask somebody, but still you have to, you have to set the boundary because you can't be the nice guy to everybody at the same time, right?
• 31:17
  SPEAKER_00: I'm uh we're gonna get to it at uh at a certain point, but I'm I'm gonna start putting shows on.
• 31:24
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm friends with most of the comedians, right?
• 31:26
  SPEAKER_00: Right, but I'm not gonna put all my friends on there, exactly, bro.
• 31:29
  SPEAKER_00: And how like how do I tell my closest friends, hey, you don't fit on this show or maybe the next show.
• 31:37
  SPEAKER_00: It's like I don't want to be the bad guy, but at the same time, like you're saying you have to set that.
• 31:42
  SPEAKER_00: I don't think you can't have every yeah, you can't have everybody.
• 31:45
  SPEAKER_01: Well, yeah, you're not necessarily the bad guy either.
• 31:47
  SPEAKER_01: You're just you're you're standing for what you you want.
• 31:50
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you know what I mean, and you're just setting a boundary.
• 31:52
  SPEAKER_01: That's all it is, bro.
• 31:53
  SPEAKER_01: And like even in our culture, how's it going?
• 31:56
  SPEAKER_01: Ronnie, right?
• 31:56
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, sir.
• 31:57
  SPEAKER_01: Ronnie, all right, yeah.
• 31:58
  SPEAKER_01: So um, we got Ronnie off to the side, guys.
• 32:01
  SPEAKER_01: He's gonna come in in a minute, talk about their toy drive they got going on.
• 32:04
  SPEAKER_01: But yeah, like our culture, we kind of grow up to where you gotta help family out, yeah, regardless.
• 32:11
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
• 32:11
  SPEAKER_01: But even still at that, dude, people can get abused, little kids can get abused, you know what I mean?
• 32:17
  SPEAKER_01: If you it can get ripped to that point, but it's like we need to grow up and learn that we can we can set boundaries, even if I even if it's our family.
• 32:25
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, like I had to set a broad I had to I had to set a strong bound boundary with my my my biological mother who came into my life as a teenager.
• 32:34
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't know her.
• 32:34
  SPEAKER_01: I had a stepmom, which was my actual mom, until I was you know a late teenager.
• 32:38
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, my mom, my real rom, my real mom started coming around, let us do whatever we wanted.
• 32:42
  SPEAKER_01: We went to go live with mom, my real mom.
• 32:45
  SPEAKER_01: My dad didn't like it.
• 32:46
  SPEAKER_01: I could see why, you know, she let us do what whatever, whatever.
• 32:48
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 32:49
  SPEAKER_01: But eventually it was bad for me because it got to the point where she wasn't respecting my boundaries for so many years.
• 32:56
  SPEAKER_01: And it came to a point when I had kids, like I had to be like, wait, mom, there's a boundary here with my kids.
• 33:02
  SPEAKER_01: And it she didn't care that it was there.
• 33:04
  SPEAKER_01: And I noticed that that had been going on for years.
• 33:06
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's like, dude, could that could have stopped a long time ago, you know.
• 33:09
  SPEAKER_01: Man, you could have all these regrets or whatever.
• 33:11
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but the the setting that boundary, setting those boundaries for especially for people that are closest to you, it's important, dude.
• 33:18
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's important for what you're trying to do.
• 33:20
  SPEAKER_00: And that's and that's the thing with it.
• 33:22
  SPEAKER_00: Like, I have huge goals with this.
• 33:24
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know how where it's gonna go, right?
• 33:27
  SPEAKER_00: But I know who has been in my life.
• 33:33
  SPEAKER_00: My like who's what who the genuine love is coming from, you know what I mean?
• 33:38
  SPEAKER_00: And I've had I I've had like people already be weird, and it's weird.
• 33:43
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, like one of these dudes that I went to high school with that I haven't talked to since high school, that I went to high school with for a year.
• 33:51
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, he hit me up and he's like, Yo, bro, I see you doing big things.
• 33:55
  SPEAKER_00: Like, bro, you don't see what up, what's going on?
• 33:58
  SPEAKER_00: No, you don't.
• 33:59
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, he's like, I see you doing big things, yada yada.
• 34:01
  SPEAKER_00: Don't forget me when I was like, bro, I don't even know who you are now.
• 34:04
  SPEAKER_00: We haven't talked in 15 years.
• 34:06
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, what are you talking about?
• 34:08
  SPEAKER_00: So yeah, yeah, it's you're right.
• 34:11
  SPEAKER_01: You do have to set those back to come out of the woodwork, and it sucks too because you feel like you're you're almost vulnerable in the spotlight to where everybody's still watching.
• 34:19
  SPEAKER_01: You got trolls, bro.
• 34:20
  SPEAKER_01: Like, for me, I mean, it's like, but you still have to maintain and go.
• 34:24
  SPEAKER_00: I think that's the cool thing about like the little cheat code with comedians is if people troll, we can lean into it.
• 34:32
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, a lot of my jokes.
• 34:34
  SPEAKER_00: If anybody for the people that haven't seen me, a lot of the jokes, a lot of my jokes, I'm the butt of the joke.
• 34:38
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, right, right.
• 34:39
  SPEAKER_00: I'm making fun of myself.
• 34:40
  SPEAKER_00: So it's like, yo, if you're gonna troll me, yeah, I'm just gonna use that to my advantage.
• 34:44
  SPEAKER_00: And I'm gonna turn that into oh, dude, that's smart.
• 34:47
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 34:47
  SPEAKER_00: Or if it's like something real good and I think it's funny, shoot, I'm gonna use that in my set.
• 34:51
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'm gonna be like, yo, somebody did yada yada.
• 34:54
  SPEAKER_00: No, that's crazy.
• 34:54
  SPEAKER_01: I didn't even think of it like that.
• 34:56
  SPEAKER_01: Say whatever you want.
• 34:57
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so do you feel like you have to use it in my turn it into something good?
• 35:00
  SPEAKER_01: Do you feel like you have to crack on yourself like through like your entire set?
• 35:04
  SPEAKER_00: Uh no, so with me, there's different brands of comedy and whatnot, and there are a lot of people do that that do like current events and stuff, and I don't do a whole bunch of current event jokes, like I'll do one or another, yeah, once in a blue moon, but I feel like current event comedy uh lends its hand to the potential of oh, XYZ happened this week.
• 35:32
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, these two people in two different cities are thinking of the same event.
• 35:37
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, their jokes sound very similar to each other.
• 35:40
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, did they steal it from this?
• 35:41
  SPEAKER_00: But it's like, well, yeah, there's only so much you can say about an event.
• 35:46
  SPEAKER_00: So, like, you know, there I've seen a lot of times, like, oh, so-and-so stole this joke from so-and-so.
• 35:52
  SPEAKER_00: It's like I get on the surface where it looks like that, but when you think about it, it's like, oh, there's only so much you could talk about an event.
• 35:59
  SPEAKER_00: So I a lot of my jokes, it's like personal stuff that I went through because I know nobody else went through my exact situation.
• 36:06
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so nobody can say that I stole my joke from anybody.
• 36:10
  SPEAKER_01: That's crazy, bro.
• 36:11
  SPEAKER_00: Because it's my life, right?
• 36:13
  SPEAKER_00: I did like I have a whole joke about my mom giving me a whole bunch of crazy nicknames throughout my whole life, and every single nickname is a true nickname that she called me throughout, like at different stages of my life.
• 36:26
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, yeah.
• 36:27
  SPEAKER_00: And I know one million percent that's my joke because my mom said every single one of those things when I grew up, you know what I mean?
• 36:34
  SPEAKER_00: So do I feel like it's necessary for me to rag on myself?
• 36:39
  SPEAKER_00: No, but it's easy to it's easy to make fun of myself.
• 36:42
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 36:42
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, because I I grew up on myself.
• 36:44
  SPEAKER_00: Like I've known myself, I've known myself for 33 years, you know what I mean?
• 36:47
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah so I have a lot of stuff to work with with that.
• 36:50
  SPEAKER_00: Uh but a lot of the stuff that I that I say, it's it's shit that people were that bullies were saying to me.
• 36:58
  SPEAKER_00: That like, you know what, I'm gonna turn it into, I'm gonna turn it up and use it in my favor now.
• 37:04
  SPEAKER_00: You know what I mean?
• 37:05
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 37:06
  SPEAKER_00: Uh I have a joke where I say that the kids in the hall where he were making fun of me because I have big titties.
• 37:12
  SPEAKER_00: And now I do I play I play it out.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_04: Wow.
• 37:15
  SPEAKER_00: And like so now I lean into it.
• 37:17
  SPEAKER_00: So do I find like it's necessary to do it?
• 37:20
  SPEAKER_00: No, but there's a lot of stuff that I went through in my life that I can play with.
• 37:24
  SPEAKER_01: And you get a lot of laughs out of it?
• 37:26
  SPEAKER_00: I mean oh yeah.
• 37:28
  SPEAKER_00: Because I think it's a lot, a lot of people went through their own shit.
• 37:33
  SPEAKER_00: They a lot of people like went through their own shit, or hell, bullies are in the crowd, you know what I mean?
• 37:39
  SPEAKER_00: So I get the duality of the people that went through shit.
• 37:43
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, oh, I went through the same thing that he went through, but he's able to make fun of it.
• 37:48
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 37:48
  SPEAKER_00: So he's able to be vulnerable with vulnerable with it, so it's easy to laugh about it.
• 37:53
  SPEAKER_00: Or the bullies that were doing that same shit are just on the surface level, ha, that's funny.
• 37:57
  SPEAKER_00: The fat guy's doing funny, making fun of himself.
• 38:00
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, so it's yeah, yeah.
• 38:01
  SPEAKER_01: Because the bully doesn't want, they don't want to be the the center of it, they don't want to be the ones that look bad or whatever.
• 38:05
  SPEAKER_01: They want you to look bad.
• 38:07
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 38:08
  SPEAKER_00: Um, but I'm I do a little bit of everything too, but a lot of it is self-deprecation, but a lot of it I I'm starting to grow more and more to that's cool, evolve to different stuff as well.
• 38:20
  SPEAKER_01: So yeah, yeah, I guess you learn that as you go.
• 38:23
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that you need to start doing that.
• 38:25
  SPEAKER_00: I'm still figuring this out.
• 38:26
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know what the fuck I'm doing with this.
• 38:27
  SPEAKER_00: Wow, I don't know what I'm doing in comedy.
• 38:29
  SPEAKER_00: Crazy, man.
• 38:29
  SPEAKER_00: But I'm still I'm still learning.
• 38:30
  SPEAKER_01: Well, it seems like you try to soak up too, like from other comedians, like how you know what I mean.
• 38:35
  SPEAKER_01: How do you do this?
• 38:35
  SPEAKER_01: How you do that, whatever.
• 38:37
  SPEAKER_00: I I want this to be my life.
• 38:40
  SPEAKER_00: I want to make something out of this.
• 38:42
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, I'm obsessed with this.
• 38:43
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 38:44
  SPEAKER_00: I'm obsessed with this.
• 38:45
  SPEAKER_00: I love this.
• 38:46
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, I was a fan of comedy before I ever did comedy, so I was already watching specials all the time.
• 38:53
  SPEAKER_00: Now I study specials.
• 38:55
  SPEAKER_02: Oh, dope.
• 38:56
  SPEAKER_00: I hate, I love it, but I hate it at the same time.
• 39:00
  SPEAKER_00: Because like when I go to a comedy show, I can't watch it as a fan anymore.
• 39:05
  SPEAKER_00: Because like when a comedian says a joke, crazy.
• 39:08
  SPEAKER_00: I can't just be like, oh, that was a great joke.
• 39:10
  SPEAKER_00: I'm like, oh, the crowd is laughing because he said this, this, and this.
• 39:15
  SPEAKER_00: When he said this, they reacted this way.
• 39:17
  SPEAKER_00: When he said this, they reacted this way.
• 39:19
  SPEAKER_00: Like now I'm just I I feel like I'm like, I I don't know, like, I just see comedy weird, it's weird now that I do it.
• 39:28
  SPEAKER_00: Um I it's it's fun, it's cool.
• 39:31
  SPEAKER_00: I just wish I could enjoy I could enjoy going to shows the way I used to.
• 39:37
  SPEAKER_00: Uh now I I'm just a student of the game.
• 39:39
  SPEAKER_00: Um I soak up everything.
• 39:41
  SPEAKER_00: Wow, man, it's awesome, dude.
• 39:42
  SPEAKER_00: Or when I see somebody bomb, I'm like, that didn't work, so don't do that.
• 39:47
  SPEAKER_00: Don't try that.
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 39:48
  SPEAKER_00: I'm constantly learning, man.
• 39:50
  SPEAKER_00: Especially like I my set, sure, it may have like the same jokes, but I try to do different elements to the same joke.
• 40:00
  SPEAKER_00: Like I try to change it up, word change wording, change verbiage, change facial expressions.
• 40:06
  SPEAKER_00: I like to change it up every so often.
• 40:07
  SPEAKER_01: Do you study like vocabulary?
• 40:09
  SPEAKER_00: Like uh I need to.
• 40:10

  SPEAKER_01: Well, what something that describes something or other?
• 40:18
  SPEAKER_01: But that but that's kind of like comedy too, where you describe certain things and you describe it in a funny way, yeah.
• 40:25
  SPEAKER_01: But that's helpful with your yeah, I guess with your actor or whatever.
• 40:29
  SPEAKER_00: I need to I need to do more of that.
• 40:34
  SPEAKER_01: Do you think do you feel like like comedians do that?
• 40:37
  SPEAKER_01: Like, I guess established comedian, or you know, uh, I don't know.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_00: I know in the rap game, MM did that, where he read the he read the dictionary multiple times.
• 40:47

  SPEAKER_00: Dope.
• 50:14
  SPEAKER_00: We're gonna be bringing the we're gonna use that, yes, sir.

  SPEAKER_01: What so what's it like?
• 50:37
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, so what's it like?
• 50:38
  SPEAKER_01: Uh, I guess doing open mic there.
• 50:41
  SPEAKER_01: Um do you feel like the stage is cool?
• 50:44
  SPEAKER_01: Crowd, the crowd, like the setup, I guess, because you know how some places it's hard to get the crowd's attention.
• 50:49
  SPEAKER_01: I hear y'all talking about riches sometimes.
• 50:51
  SPEAKER_01: How yeah, you know, I mean they're gonna play pool and it's hard to get there.
• 50:57
  SPEAKER_00: Thank you for listening to the podcast.
• 50:59
  SPEAKER_01: You didn't I mean, dude, like I mean, I don't know.
• 51:01
  SPEAKER_01: I feel like it needs to be brought to light, especially for the comedy scene, the local comedy scene, if to have better experiences.
• 51:08
  SPEAKER_00: But uh, but still, like even having those experiences, it's my thing is sure it's a bad experience for us, but it's a terrible experience for the fans.
• 51:17
  SPEAKER_00: Like, my my dad's a huge supporter, and he's a huge comedy fan.
• 51:22
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, he goes to as many of the shows as that he can.
• 51:25
  SPEAKER_00: He won't go to a Richard show after the one that he went to because of the experience that he had.
• 51:30
  SPEAKER_00: He's like, bro, I I didn't even enjoy the show.
• 51:32
  SPEAKER_00: He said every time I heard the the the somebody break, I turned around.
• 51:39
  SPEAKER_00: Like somebody break playing pool.
• 51:41
  SPEAKER_00: It's like okay.
• 51:42
  SPEAKER_01: Back to that thing of drawing a boundary, drawing a line of what you're willing to do or what not willing to do.
• 51:46
  SPEAKER_01: So, you guys got a stage for that?
• 51:47
  SPEAKER_01: You guys built a stage bringing it out.
• 51:49
  SPEAKER_01: Y'all got lighting and stuff like that?
• 51:51
  SPEAKER_01: Lighting on the stage.
• 51:52
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, nice go one, got the chairs, how the chairs are gonna be set up and all that stuff.
• 51:57
  SPEAKER_05: Yeah, we have an idea of uh redoing the room just for the show.
• 52:01
  SPEAKER_05: Yeah, um, and I think the owners are on board.
• 52:03
  SPEAKER_05: So yeah, we're gonna make it to where it's friendly for comedy, yeah.
• 52:07
  SPEAKER_05: So and then good news is when it gets packed out, if you don't show up early enough, there's plenty of room outside in the patio, in the patio, and you can hear everything as well.
• 52:16
  SPEAKER_01: So Steve Bernal, comedy is blowing up actually a bit in corpus.
• 52:20
  SPEAKER_01: I'm loving it.
• 52:21
  SPEAKER_00: I do wanna I do wanna make a comment to that.
• 52:24
  SPEAKER_00: It does say corpus is uh comedy is blowing up a bit in corpus.
• 52:28
  SPEAKER_00: I'm loving it.
• 52:28
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, yes, one million percent.
• 52:31
  SPEAKER_00: I'm very, very, very, very proud of all the freaking comedians in Corpus, man, because cool, everybody is bringing it.
• 52:38
  SPEAKER_04: Nice.
• 52:39
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, we just did a show at Tanks Pisa in San Antonio, and shout out to Ryan Add.
• 52:44
  SPEAKER_00: He's a comedian out of San Antonio that put that together.
• 52:46
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, it was an all-corpus show.
• 52:48
  SPEAKER_00: Oh.
• 52:49
  SPEAKER_00: And he said that there's regulars that go to that show that said that from beginning to end, that that was the funniest show that they had been to at that venue.
• 52:58
  SPEAKER_00: And it was nothing but corpus comedians on it.
• 53:00
  SPEAKER_00: So sh corpus has been all the all the comedians, well, major majority of the comedians, right?
• 53:07
  SPEAKER_00: Right, right, right.
• 53:07
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, they've been grinding and busting their ass and writing a lot of material and writing quality material.
• 53:13
  SPEAKER_00: It's like that iron sharpens iron.
• 53:15
  SPEAKER_00: Yes.
• 53:16
  SPEAKER_00: A lot of you can see the quality in in these comedians' jokes.
• 53:20
  SPEAKER_00: Um, everybody's growing, man, and everybody's hungry, and I love to freaking see it.
• 53:24
  SPEAKER_00: If you haven't gone to a show, especially a local show in Corpus Christi, come out to December 6th at the annex, uh, or go out to any show, man, because we've all been busting our butt, man.
• 53:35
  SPEAKER_00: We've all been busting our butt, and everybody's taking pride in what they're doing.
• 53:39
  SPEAKER_00: That's awesome, man.
• 53:40
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, shout out to Steve Bernard for that comment because that is 100% true.
• 53:46
  SPEAKER_00: Uh Corpus is growing out here.
• 53:48
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 53:48
  SPEAKER_00: Apparently, but right before I started, or not too long before I started, there was only a handful of comedians.
• 53:54
  SPEAKER_00: And it's gotten to the point where any given open mic list, there's 22, 23, man.
• 53:58
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, do you so how so I have two questions?
• 54:00
  SPEAKER_01: Like, how do you feel about the old schoolers in town from Corpus?
• 54:04
  SPEAKER_01: And then uh how do you feel like do you feel like it's so many comedians to where you don't have enough time to practice your craft?
• 54:12
  SPEAKER_01: You know what I mean?
• 54:13
  SPEAKER_01: How do you feel about those things?
• 54:16
  SPEAKER_00: So old schoolers, Javi and Danielle are absolutely amazing.
• 54:23
  SPEAKER_00: They've treated me, they welcome me with open arms.
• 54:25
  SPEAKER_00: Not Danielle at first.
• 54:27
  SPEAKER_00: Danielle doesn't welcome anybody with open arms at first, but she's my she's my comedy the man.
• 54:32
  SPEAKER_00: I love Danielle, I love Javi, they've been great.
• 54:35
  SPEAKER_00: Uh Tina, Tina's great, she's real good to talk to.
• 54:39
  SPEAKER_00: Uh there are some old school that pop in every so often, like David Zerman's one of them.
• 54:46
  SPEAKER_00: He's very funny, he's great.
• 54:48
  SPEAKER_00: Um they're just there's some old heads that pop in every so often that are really cool and stuff.
• 55:01
  SPEAKER_00: But um, as far as are there too many comedians?
• 55:07
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 55:08
  SPEAKER_00: And yes, just because there are some mics that have a cap and uh and are really hard, it's kind of hard to say it publicly, too, right?
• 55:18
  SPEAKER_01: Because like, damn, I don't know.
• 55:19
  SPEAKER_00: No, you know, I'm mad that the past two months I haven't made it on Joe Hilliard's mic.
• 55:24
  SPEAKER_01: Yay!
• 55:26
  SPEAKER_00: No, but I get it.
• 55:26
  SPEAKER_00: He he he has a really good process, it's capped at I think 10 or 8, especially with the roast battle right now going on, and he does random draw.
• 55:34
  SPEAKER_00: It's like literally, he does a spinner and everything.
• 55:37
  SPEAKER_00: It it is what it is, it's a luck of the draw, and uh that's where it comes in.
• 55:42
  SPEAKER_00: Where oh crap, if there were only X amount of people, all of us would have gotten on.
• 55:46
  SPEAKER_00: But it's a good problem to have, I think it's a good problem to have because every, like I said, everybody it's iron sharpens iron, and oh shit, XYZ is getting better.
• 55:55
  SPEAKER_00: I need to get better.
• 55:56
  SPEAKER_00: Oh damn, like you don't want to be left behind, you don't want to because all of us, yeah, we're all it's a fun group, but all of us are still wanting to get booked, right?
• 56:05
  SPEAKER_00: And if somebody else is doing better than you, they're gonna get booked.
• 56:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
• 56:09
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 56:10
  SPEAKER_01: So this is your first show.
• 56:11
  SPEAKER_01: Do you feel like you you had to start putting on your own shows?
• 56:15
  SPEAKER_01: Like, is that the the play for a lot of local what do you think, Ronnie?
• 56:18
  SPEAKER_01: For a lot of local comedians.
• 56:20
  SPEAKER_05: Uh, when I first got on the scene, I started putting on my uh my own prosite.
• 56:24
  SPEAKER_05: Six months and Ronnie can put it on.
• 56:25
  SPEAKER_01: Because like you feel like that's the play, or yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.
• 56:28
  SPEAKER_05: I just I want to stage time, and I know you know, sometimes you're not gonna be given it, you know.
• 56:34
  SPEAKER_05: So sometimes, you know, I I put on my own show because I've seen other people putting on shows, so it's just like I can do it, you know.
• 56:40
  SPEAKER_05: I'm I'm capable.
• 56:42
  SPEAKER_05: Um, and uh, you know, you learn from like Danielle, she she basically put me under her wing when I first started producing shows.
• 56:49
  SPEAKER_05: So she taught me the ropes on you know, pay your people to treat your comics good, you know, um, not to have like 10,000 people on the lineups because people, you know, fatigue and whatnot.
• 57:00
  SPEAKER_05: Crowd fatigue, it's a real thing, man.
• 57:02
  SPEAKER_00: And I think we did the opposite with our show.
• 57:04
  SPEAKER_00: I think we have too little comics on it.
• 57:06
  SPEAKER_00: Well, I mean, we may I think we are gonna add one more comedian to it.
• 57:11
  SPEAKER_00: Uh I guess you just want to you won't you're right.
• 57:13
  SPEAKER_00: They having too many, it's sometimes less is more.
• 57:17
  SPEAKER_05: You know, it it uh whenever you have less people, like instead of you know, every eight minutes we change someone out.
• 57:23
  SPEAKER_05: Now we're gonna give you 15 minutes with one person, so now you can invest time and get to another style, and then you know, then once you get done with them, bring out someone new, yeah.
• 57:34
  SPEAKER_05: You know, just like two or three of those versus like oh now we gotta start over for another roller coaster ride sometimes.
• 57:41
  SPEAKER_01: How often do you feel like you need to do shows like throughout the year?
• 57:46
  SPEAKER_00: Me, uh, I want to see how this one goes.
• 57:50
  SPEAKER_00: But another thing with shows is if you do a quality show and my shows aren't always gonna be at the annex and they're not always gonna be free.
• 58:00
  SPEAKER_00: If you I want to set the standard with this first one of quality, and once I I want all of my shows to be a quality one, it eventually starts being a money generating thing.
• 58:11
  SPEAKER_01: People expect quality next time around.
• 58:14
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 58:14
  SPEAKER_00: So if I'm gonna be putting money into it, it's eventually gonna come back.
• 58:19
  SPEAKER_00: So that's another reason to do it as well.
• 58:21
  SPEAKER_00: That's cool, man.
• 58:22
  SPEAKER_00: But my thing with that is if I'm gonna book like Davies a bigger name, if I want to book a bigger name, like if I want somebody to see my material and you don't ever really get a chance to see them, that's another way for them to see your material.
• 58:37
  SPEAKER_00: Is well, I'm gonna book them on the show and I'm gonna be on it, so they're gonna see me.
• 58:41
  SPEAKER_01: So that's wait, what are you what are you saying?
• 58:43
  SPEAKER_01: I lost you.
• 58:44
  SPEAKER_01: I'm sorry, I zoned out there for a minute.
• 58:46
  SPEAKER_00: So what'd you say?
• 58:47
  SPEAKER_00: No, so putting on shows gives you an opportunity to like control the lineup.
• 58:52
  SPEAKER_00: And if you don't get an opportunity to work with like these comedians, that's an opportunity to book them on your show and they see to work with those comedians who are right.
• 59:02
  SPEAKER_01: Oh, okay, okay, okay.
• 59:03
  SPEAKER_01: Kind of like a network test style thing.
• 59:04
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 59:05
  SPEAKER_05: For sure, sure.
• 59:06
  SPEAKER_05: I mean, uh, producing the shows and then being on the show sometimes can be a collect a catch-22.
• 59:12
  SPEAKER_05: Um, like for me, uh, sometimes the stress of running and producing the show will take its toll whenever you're doing your actual set because you're so worried about all the moving pieces instead of just oh my 10-15 minutes.
• 59:25
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, wow.
• 59:26
  SPEAKER_00: And that's what I'm gonna figure out because I'm not so I'm gonna be putting the show together, but I'm also gonna host it.
• 59:32
  SPEAKER_00: Probably to start the show off.
• 59:34
  SPEAKER_00: I'm gonna have to keep track of everybody's time.
• 59:37
  SPEAKER_00: Yep.
• 59:38
  SPEAKER_00: Uh, like I think each everybody's gonna do 15 minutes on the show, so I'm gonna have to be timing them.
• 59:43
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, then I'm gonna have to light them.
• 59:45
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, okay.
• 59:45
  SPEAKER_00: Have to go back up, say something about them, and then bring the next one.
• 59:49
  SPEAKER_00: And so this I probably shouldn't have hosted the first show that I'm putting on, and I probably should have let somebody else do it.
• 59:56
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, but I'm a psychopath, so yeah, I do that.
• 1:00:00
  SPEAKER_01: I do that sometimes.
• 1:00:01
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's good, man.
• 1:00:02
  SPEAKER_01: I love hosting.
• 1:00:03
  SPEAKER_00: Hosting is very fun.
• 1:00:04
  SPEAKER_01: Okay, do you feel like that's the play too as a as a local comedian?
• 1:00:07
  SPEAKER_01: Like, you know what I mean?
• 1:00:09
  SPEAKER_01: Like hosting, because it seems like there's you have Ana, Joe Hilliard, who else, uh Tina.
• 1:00:13
  SPEAKER_01: I've I've just I follow you guys on social media.
• 1:00:16
  SPEAKER_05: Migolito, yeah.
• 1:00:17
  SPEAKER_05: Yeah, um, I think I think hosting is the move if you want to uh further your comedy career because now you're getting up the whole night.
• 1:00:25
  SPEAKER_05: You know, you're not just doing five, ten minutes here, and now you're responsible for the crowd.
• 1:00:30
  SPEAKER_05: Because hosting you're not worried about the comics as a host, you're worried about the crowd having a good so now it changes your your mentality instead of like it's like screw the comics if they're not doing good for the like we're about we're worried about the crowd having fun.
• 1:00:43
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, exactly.
• 1:00:44
  SPEAKER_00: You kind of have to like you are you kind of have to be the one that has a finger on the pulse the whole time, and like, oh shoot, the pulse is dying out, they're dying.
• 1:00:55
  SPEAKER_00: I need to do something to bring them back to keep them back alive.
• 1:00:58
  SPEAKER_00: So, like you are constantly having to check the pulse of the show the whole time, dude.
• 1:01:02
  SPEAKER_00: And I think it's a fun thing to have.
• 1:01:05
  SPEAKER_00: Wow, it's a fun responsibility.
• 1:01:07
  SPEAKER_05: Uh the host is like should be either the the first or second funniest comedian on that lineup because they're they're up there the whole night.
• 1:01:15
  SPEAKER_05: Yeah, um, I've had an experience where you know I didn't do so well, and the host, man, he freaking boom brought the room back.
• 1:01:23
  SPEAKER_05: Whoa, and that's so important because sometimes a good host, if someone has a poor performance, the show's done.
• 1:01:30
  SPEAKER_05: Oh, like it's done.
• 1:01:31
  SPEAKER_05: The crowd's out of it, you know.
• 1:01:33
  SPEAKER_01: So I guess the host will so the host would try to make it a little bit softer for the next comedian.
• 1:01:38
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:01:39
  SPEAKER_00: Make it even more soft.
• 1:01:40
  SPEAKER_00: The the host's main job is to make it easier for all the comics.
• 1:01:46
  SPEAKER_00: The last thing you want is for the host to bomb at the beginning and make it an uphill battle for everybody else.
• 1:01:52
  SPEAKER_00: Oh, damn, the host has to start it off hot just so it's super easy for everybody else.
• 1:01:58
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 1:01:58
  SPEAKER_00: Just so it's a great show after that.
• 1:02:00
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:02:01
  SPEAKER_00: Uh yeah, for sure.
• 1:02:03
  SPEAKER_00: And I that's one of the things like I love hosting, and I've gotten the opportunity to do a lot more hosting, but for the longest time, Ronnie was the only one when he was putting shows on, he was the only one booking me to host.
• 1:02:13
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 1:02:13
  SPEAKER_00: And because of Ronnie, I got to got that practice more and more.
• 1:02:16
  SPEAKER_00: And so I think that's one of my strong suits is hosting now.
• 1:02:19
  SPEAKER_00: Wow, that's cool.
• 1:02:20
  SPEAKER_00: I love hosting.
• 1:02:21
