Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: It's my first podcast back, too.
- 0:01Speaker 2: Let's go, boys.
- 0:04Speaker 3: Let's go, dude. But yeah, man, this is a crazy run.
- 0:08Speaker 3: Crazy run.
- 0:08Speaker 1: We have Steve Burn on.
- 0:11Speaker 2: Comedian.
- 0:12Speaker 4: Legend.
- 0:12Speaker 1: I can't wait to talk to a lot of stuff. Iconic.
- 0:15Speaker 2: Your boys are one of my comedy heroes. Yeah. Vince Vaughn.
- 0:21Speaker 1: I thought you were going to say Pauly Shore.
- 0:22Speaker 4: That's okay.
- 0:23Speaker 1: Pauly Shore was great.
- 0:24Speaker 3: Did In the Army Now.
- 0:25Speaker 1: Phenomenal movie.
- 0:26Speaker 2: That's right. Phenomenal movie.
- 0:28Speaker 1: Don't you do a podcast as well with Joe? I
- 0:31Speaker 1: do a podcast with Joe Gatto from Practical Jokers.
- 0:35Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 0:35Speaker 1: So I do that. And then I do Comedy Piñata,
- 0:37Speaker 1: which you joined on.
- 0:38Speaker 2: Yes.
- 0:38Speaker 1: And that's just done at Zany's.
- 0:41Speaker 4: We sit in the comedy club and it's just comedians
- 0:44Speaker 4: sitting there watching standup comedy together.
- 0:46Speaker 1: And we break down.
- 0:47Speaker 4: The bits and kind of poke through the holes. And
- 0:49Speaker 4: then we have stories about the comics. So it's really
- 0:52Speaker 4: a fun organic way. Cause I've seen podcasts about like
- 0:56Speaker 4: stunt men breaking down stunts in film or like special
- 0:59Speaker 4: effects artists break down, you know, star Wars and star Trek.
- 1:02Speaker 4: And I've never seen comics breaking down bits of comedy. Um,
- 1:08Speaker 4: So it, for me, even through the process of doing
- 1:11Speaker 4: it made me really appreciate the different gears that different
- 1:14Speaker 4: comics have, you know, whether it's your storyteller slash just
- 1:19Speaker 4: full on entertainer, like Bert Kreischer or like a prolific
- 1:22Speaker 4: joke writer, like Mark Norman. And so you get into
- 1:25Speaker 4: the nuances of everybody's thing. And then you have like,
- 1:28Speaker 4: you know, Swiss army knives. Like I could do a
- 1:30Speaker 4: little bit of everything, but not one thing. Great.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Just a lot of, lot of things good.
- 1:35Speaker 3: Yeah yeah and so what would you rather be just
- 1:36Speaker 3: great at one thing or good at a lot of
- 1:38Speaker 3: things i'd.
- 1:39Speaker 4: Rather be good a lot of things because even when
- 1:41Speaker 4: i'm going to nashville like i go to zany's right
- 1:44Speaker 4: i just do stan i just do crowd work yeah
- 1:47Speaker 4: i just fuck off and do crowd what do you
- 1:49Speaker 4: mean by crowd work crowd work is when you just
- 1:52Speaker 4: go up and you have any material plan and it
- 1:54Speaker 4: just starts with conversations with the audience and you're living
- 1:56Speaker 4: on the wire so my job there is to just
- 1:59Speaker 4: make make them laugh out of nothing and just see
- 2:02Speaker 4: what i can do so it's because I work so
- 2:05Speaker 4: much on crowd work just at Zany's and like when
- 2:06Speaker 4: I'm in New York city, like last night, for example,
- 2:09Speaker 4: at the cell, I just doing crowd work. Now, when
- 2:11Speaker 4: I go and do my regular shows where it's just material,
- 2:16Speaker 4: you could do anything to me and I'm prepared. I
- 2:19Speaker 4: have so many like knives and an arsenal of like
- 2:23Speaker 4: weapons for any such, you drop a glass.
- 2:25Speaker 2: I got a life.
- 2:26Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:26Speaker 1: How do you like prepare for that?
- 2:29Speaker 4: It's just doing it over and over and over again
- 2:31Speaker 4: and putting yourself out there and digging yourself. I mean,
- 2:34Speaker 4: at Zany's, I dug myself into so many horrible holes.
- 2:37Speaker 4: I'm like, how the fuck am I going to get
- 2:39Speaker 4: out of this? And usually it's talking to black people.
- 2:44Speaker 2: He's Asian. He can say that. We're all good. I
- 2:45Speaker 2: don't know what you're talking about.
- 2:48Speaker 4: But he's talking to black people and just... You know,
- 2:52Speaker 4: I'm always like, what's the worst thing I could say
- 2:54Speaker 4: right now? And I say it.
- 2:55Speaker 2: Whoa, you say it.
- 2:57Speaker 4: Well, I'm not dropping, like, the N-word or.
- 2:59Speaker 2: Something like that.
- 2:59Speaker 1: You say the worst thing possible.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Can Asians say the N-word?
- 3:01Speaker 3: Is that, like, an okay thing?
- 3:02Speaker 2: I hear Mexicans say the N-word. I hear Mexicans say
- 3:05Speaker 2: it a lot.
- 3:05Speaker 4: What's that?
- 3:06Speaker 2: Mexicans say it a lot. Well.
- 3:08Speaker 4: yeah they kind of get like a pass right because
- 3:10Speaker 4: it's like they're almost.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Yeah i'm digging myself a hole that i don't even
- 3:13Speaker 3: want to be in right now please.
- 3:14Speaker 1: Like let's get the fuck out of here right.
- 3:16Speaker 3: Now hey i'm fucking treading water right now i'm like

- 3:21Speaker 4: Gonna be doing this almost getting canceled yeah i think
- 3:24Speaker 4: basically it will try.
- 3:24Speaker 3: To get canceled once a week i swear to god
- 3:26Speaker 3: dude are you talking about the last thing the jew thing.
- 3:28Speaker 2: No but that thing too here's the other jews party
- 3:33Speaker 2: party On Twitter.
- 3:36Speaker 3: But even that, like when you posted having your baby
- 3:39Speaker 3: and it was a black.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Baby, like shit like that. Oh, you talking about April Fool's?
- 3:41Speaker 3: Yeah, because I didn't even think about that.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Like, oh, I like the canceling thing.
- 3:44Speaker 3: And then like, you know, Mr. Arnold was like, hey,
- 3:45Speaker 3: he's just trying to do whatever he can to get canceled, huh?
- 3:48Speaker 3: You're like, oh, damn. Will's really trying to do that.
- 3:50Speaker 3: That's crazy.
- 3:51Speaker 1: I thought the baby thing was fucking.
- 3:52Speaker 2: Hilarious.
- 3:53Speaker 1: Yeah, hilarious.
- 3:54Speaker 2: It's when it's going, when it gets outside of like
- 3:57Speaker 2: the audience who kind of knows you and knows how
- 3:59Speaker 2: you joke and stuff like that.
- 4:00Speaker 1: That's when, like, the racial stuff kind of comes in.
- 4:02Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Because one dude literally goes, this is, what did he say, this.
- 4:05Speaker 1: Is white nationalism at work. And it's like, fuck, man,
- 4:07Speaker 1: I'm just. So strong. It's a strong tweet.
- 4:09Speaker 2: Holy fuck.
- 4:09Speaker 1: It's like, yo, bro.
- 4:10Speaker 2: Easy.
- 4:11Speaker 3: Like, I'm not wearing a pillowcase on my head.
- 4:12Speaker 2: Relax.
- 4:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 4:14Speaker 2: Dude, that's fucking.
- 4:15Speaker 1: Here I go again.
- 4:16Speaker 3: Here I go again, digging myself a hole.
- 4:17Speaker 1: Party, party, bro. Dude, she's party, party. Oh, you were saying, yeah, that's,
- 4:22Speaker 1: that Will tweeted that. That he had his baby.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Oh, my.
- 4:26Speaker 3: Dude, my man is fucking hilarious on Twitter. He really
- 4:29Speaker 3: don't miss.
- 4:30Speaker 2: Willa Earline. Born at 6.32 a.m. My wife and I
- 4:34Speaker 2: are literally just laying in bed laughing, everything happening, because
- 4:37Speaker 2: Taylor hits me up. He's like, maybe you sent a
- 4:39Speaker 2: voice thing, or maybe we got on the phone, but
- 4:41Speaker 2: you're like, hey, did you have a kid? No, I
- 4:44Speaker 2: didn't do that.
- 4:44Speaker 1: I knew it was a black baby.
- 4:45Speaker 2: You said you got a.
- 4:47Speaker 1: Whole bunch of people, people legit saying congrats. No, you
- 4:49Speaker 1: didn't see the photo yet. You didn't see the photo yet.
- 4:52Speaker 2: You just, I thought you had heard that something happened.
- 4:55Speaker 2: You're like, am I finding out there's somebody else before
- 4:58Speaker 2: hearing from you? Remember?
- 4:59Speaker 1: Cause you were traveling.
- 5:01Speaker 3: People were saying congratulations to you on Twitter. I didn't
- 5:04Speaker 3: see your tweet. And I remember telling Taylor, I'm like
- 5:06Speaker 3: this motherfucker is so into Twitter now that he didn't
- 5:08Speaker 3: even tell one of his best friends. Like that he
- 5:10Speaker 3: had his child.
- 5:11Speaker 2: But he took the Twitter to tell the world before
- 5:13Speaker 2: he told me.
- 5:13Speaker 1: Like some people are saying congratulations.
- 5:15Speaker 2: I'm like, do you not fuck?
- 5:16Speaker 4: When you feel a good joke, it's like, it's got
- 5:18Speaker 4: to go up now.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Yeah. There you go.
- 5:21Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:21Speaker 3: But go back. So usually you get in the worst
- 5:23Speaker 3: deep waters with black people.
- 5:25Speaker 5: Go on.
- 5:25Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:26Speaker 4: And then I think you feel it. You feel the room.
- 5:29Speaker 4: You feel the air leave the room.
- 5:30Speaker 2: You're like, all right.
- 5:32Speaker 4: Now it's like, it's just a game of Tetris. It's like,
- 5:34Speaker 4: this goes here, this goes here. And you slowly build.
- 5:36Speaker 4: And the key isn't to make the audience laugh. The
- 5:39Speaker 4: key really is to make the individual laugh that you're
- 5:42Speaker 4: in that hole with. Because you're like, oh my God,
- 5:44Speaker 4: did you just say that to me? And it's like-
- 5:46Speaker 4: That's how challenging that moment becomes. So for me, I
- 5:50Speaker 4: love it. I don't know. That's like the new high
- 5:52Speaker 4: for me in comedy because comedy itself, as you witnessed,
- 5:56Speaker 4: to get a laugh is such a high.
- 5:58Speaker 1: It's great, right? The bombs are the fucking worst.
- 6:01Speaker 4: Those pendulum swings when you're first starting, I always tell
- 6:04Speaker 4: people it's like getting Sharpie on your face. when you're,
- 6:08Speaker 4: when you're starting, when you bomb, it's like, it's going
- 6:10Speaker 4: to stay with you for a while, but eventually it's
- 6:12Speaker 4: going to wear off. Right.
- 6:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 6:13Speaker 4: But then you get so used to it. It's like,
- 6:15Speaker 4: fuck bombing is nothing to me. And then you need something.
- 6:19Speaker 4: It's like, you got to cut yourself. Like to feel again.
- 6:22Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 6:23Speaker 4: For me, like the crowd work is like, oh, this
- 6:25Speaker 4: is so fun. It's so reinvigorating. And then when you,
- 6:28Speaker 4: when you break through and get them to all laugh,
- 6:30Speaker 4: but especially you break that person, that's the best feeling
- 6:33Speaker 4: in the world. Along with doing jokes that are challenging and,
- 6:37Speaker 4: and all that other stuff. Like this new hour is
- 6:39Speaker 4: going to be a lot of fun, but, but for me,
- 6:40Speaker 4: I really love crowd work and it's, it's helped me
- 6:42Speaker 4: become a better comic.
- 6:43Speaker 2: Yeah. Sometimes do you ever not get out of the hole?
- 6:46Speaker 4: No.
- 6:47Speaker 2: And it's something that, like, after the night's over, you're
- 6:50Speaker 2: kind of thinking, like, if this happens again, here's, oh,
- 6:52Speaker 2: this would have been funny to say, like, here's how
- 6:54Speaker 2: I can get myself out of it.
- 6:54Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always tough when you're, like, in an argument
- 6:56Speaker 3: with somebody.
- 6:56Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
- 6:56Speaker 3: And they say something to you, and you're, like, whatever,
- 6:58Speaker 3: something back, and then, like, 20 minutes later, you're, like,
- 7:00Speaker 3: I should have said this.
- 7:00Speaker 2: Right, or you're driving home, and you're, like, why did
- 7:02Speaker 2: I react that way? Like, I could have said this.
- 7:04Speaker 2: Or even if it's a joke, if I'm, like, trying
- 7:06Speaker 2: to make somebody, if you're, like, trying to make somebody laugh,
- 7:08Speaker 2: and they're not getting it, and it's just stone-faced, and
- 7:10Speaker 2: maybe one person might laugh, but nobody else laughs, you're, like,
- 7:12Speaker 2: all right. In real life, that's something I need to
- 7:14Speaker 2: work on at night.
- 7:18Speaker 4: But in real life, I get, I get stumped. Yeah.
- 7:20Speaker 4: Which is weird. But on stage, it's just like, I
- 7:23Speaker 4: don't know what happens. Like I can't get, it just like,
- 7:26Speaker 4: even if I get stumped for a second, like you
- 7:27Speaker 4: were saying, don't you ever get stumped? It's like, I'll
- 7:30Speaker 4: put a bookmark in it knowing, okay, use a stock line,
- 7:34Speaker 4: get out of it. But the whole time I'm doing
- 7:36Speaker 4: something else, I'm still thinking about that other one.
- 7:38Speaker 2: I'm going to get back to that.
- 7:38Speaker 1: I'm going to get back to it. I will figure
- 7:40Speaker 1: it out.
- 7:41Speaker 4: And usually something bubbles up over here and I call
- 7:43Speaker 4: it back to over here.
- 7:44Speaker 2: And then I tie those two things together and then
- 7:47Speaker 2: you get the laugh. it's super interesting hearing comics talk
- 7:49Speaker 2: about comedy. Cause it's kind of like when you're an
- 7:51Speaker 2: individual and you don't get to talk to people like you,
- 7:53Speaker 2: like if you're watching the UFC, you look at it
- 7:55Speaker 2: as like, Oh, these are just a couple of brutes
- 7:56Speaker 2: really just going at it.
- 7:57Speaker 3: And then you will start learning like, Oh, these are
- 7:59Speaker 3: technical things. They're doing the half key team. Like they're
- 8:02Speaker 3: playing chess up there. And when it's talking to you,
- 8:04Speaker 3: it's kind of the same thing. Like, i'm over here
- 8:07Speaker 3: sitting here smiling and laughing right but i don't know
- 8:09Speaker 3: that you put all this work into it or whatever
- 8:11Speaker 3: we just think oh this is a funny guy that
- 8:12Speaker 3: comes up.
- 8:12Speaker 2: Here that's a good point because ufc you get to
- 8:14Speaker 2: see all the uh behind the scenes stuff like you
- 8:17Speaker 2: see all the technical side and they talk about like
- 8:18Speaker 2: oh i had him in half guard so i knew
- 8:20Speaker 2: i had to do this like yo they're really.
- 8:21Speaker 4: Thinking about that yeah yeah yeah i look even like
- 8:25Speaker 4: even like roasting like jeff ross the roast master That's
- 8:28Speaker 4: a totally different muscle. It's like, oh, do comedy. Just
- 8:30Speaker 4: go do a roast. It's like, that's a skill set. Like,
- 8:33Speaker 4: that's a real different skill set. Crowd work's a skill set.
- 8:36Speaker 4: One-liners are a skill set. Like, Bert Kreischer's storytelling, that's
- 8:39Speaker 4: a skill set. Not everybody can be that. But when
- 8:42Speaker 4: you can do a little bit of both, that's why
- 8:43Speaker 4: I try to push myself to be a little bit
- 8:45Speaker 4: of both, to be a little more well-rounded.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 8:48Speaker 1: It's the fucking greatest job in the world.
- 8:49Speaker 3: So going back to, like, bombing, when you start bombing, like,
- 8:52Speaker 3: you go to a comedy store or something like that,
- 8:54Speaker 3: and you get on stage, what's worse? Bombing in front
- 8:56Speaker 3: of the crowd or bombing in front of other comics?
- 8:58Speaker 3: When you're first starting.
- 9:00Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 9:01Speaker 3: You're probably thinking to yourself, I want these people to
- 9:03Speaker 3: be my peers.
- 9:04Speaker 2: But I want them... We're all trying to be funny
- 9:07Speaker 2: in a way.
- 9:09Speaker 3: Just like anything, there's different personalities. There's probably some comics
- 9:11Speaker 3: that are like, oh, this guy fucking sucks. And there's
- 9:13Speaker 3: going to be other guys that are super helpful that
- 9:14Speaker 3: want to come to, Hey, you did this and that.
- 9:17Speaker 1: Like, you know what I'm saying? I just love nothing
- 9:18Speaker 1: more than watching other comics bomb.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Really?
- 9:21Speaker 4: The fucking greatest.
- 9:22Speaker 1: Yeah. Cause you're just watching them weasel the way out.
- 9:24Speaker 4: And, and then when you're watching it, it's just like,
- 9:28Speaker 4: it's the fucking best because now you're seeing your friend
- 9:30Speaker 4: in a puzzle. It's like, is he going to solve
- 9:32Speaker 4: the puzzle or not? And when they solve it, it's
- 9:34Speaker 4: the best. But my favorite thing are bomb lines. I
- 9:37Speaker 4: love when somebody's, telling a joke and it sucks and
- 9:40Speaker 4: like carson was the best like the old carson show
- 9:43Speaker 4: literally pull down the boom mic and tap on it
- 9:45Speaker 4: or he'd yeah have a ton of bomb lines and
- 9:47Speaker 4: it's just again another like organic way that the comic's
- 9:51Speaker 4: living in the moment and you're seeing how is this
- 9:55Speaker 4: individual going to get out of that moment of silence
- 9:58Speaker 4: where it just it's so fucking uncomfortable nothing's worse than
- 10:01Speaker 4: that but to get the laugh is the best.
- 10:03Speaker 3: The boom light grab is good that puts everybody back
- 10:05Speaker 3: into back into key like okay we're back in this
- 10:08Speaker 3: thing I feel.
- 10:09Speaker 2: Like blood would just rush to my head and I
- 10:11Speaker 2: wouldn't like know what to do well.
- 10:12Speaker 3: The thing is like you've been up there for five
- 10:14Speaker 3: minutes And some of your.
- 10:15Speaker 2: Jokes are hilarious.
- 10:16Speaker 3: There are a couple like, all right.
- 10:17Speaker 1: But the one that was like, oh, I didn't really land.
- 10:19Speaker 4: That last one.
- 10:20Speaker 2: So it was the last one.
- 10:22Speaker 1: I got or whatever I said.
- 10:24Speaker 2: Yeah, it was. I remember that. You helped him a
- 10:28Speaker 2: lot with that, right? Steve helped me punch up with
- 10:31Speaker 2: several of my jokes. Like I would come up with
- 10:33Speaker 2: the concept. That NBA one was the funniest joke. The
- 10:37Speaker 2: NBA one was you, too, was where the way it
- 10:40Speaker 2: started was definitely, I don't know if it's something that
- 10:42Speaker 2: we set up. That would get you a murky one
- 10:43Speaker 2: of the black people. Yes, it would get you a
- 10:45Speaker 2: murky one of the black people. And then I talked
- 10:46Speaker 2: with Shane Gillis. He was like, let it ride.
- 10:48Speaker 1: That's hilarious.
- 10:49Speaker 2: Bro, Shane is hilarious, bro.
- 10:50Speaker 1: You watch Shane's comedy and you see why he's like,
- 10:52Speaker 1: let it ride.
- 10:52Speaker 4: You're going to ask anybody, is this offensive? Like, Shane
- 10:56Speaker 4: Gillis was like.
- 10:57Speaker 6: fucking let it ride and Burt was trying to come
- 11:01Speaker 6: up with a player because he was like you gotta
- 11:03Speaker 6: personalize it and then when I talked to you that
- 11:05Speaker 6: was like the great way to kind of personalize it
- 11:07Speaker 6: while also like.
- 11:08Speaker 4: Yeah cause you were the person in that joke it
- 11:10Speaker 4: was personalized off of you as opposed to throwing it
- 11:14Speaker 4: to a name cause then all of a sudden you're
- 11:16Speaker 4: you're saying something to somebody who's defenseless, but it's when
- 11:18Speaker 4: it's you, it's like, oh, it's fun.
- 11:21Speaker 1: If you can take the sting off it, it's great.
- 11:22Speaker 4: Like, I'll shit on people the whole show, but then
- 11:26Speaker 4: I'm shitting on me more than anybody. You know, there's
- 11:29Speaker 4: a hot girl in front. It's like, relax, stop giving
- 11:31Speaker 4: me static. I know you saw me pull up here
- 11:33Speaker 4: in a Saturn. It's like all those dumb bomb lines.
- 11:35Speaker 4: Let the audience know I'm no better than anybody here. So,
- 11:39Speaker 4: you know, Asian Elon Musk, all these dumb jokes, you know,
- 11:41Speaker 4: that just... Put myself down, yeah.
- 11:44Speaker 2: That does play. That's funny.
- 11:45Speaker 1: You got that bank account?
- 11:47Speaker 4: No.
- 11:48Speaker 3: You think an Asian Elon Musk would have more money
- 11:49Speaker 3: than Elon Musk, right?
- 11:50Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a really good fucking point.
- 11:52Speaker 7: You know?
- 11:52Speaker 1: Mathematician. You can have that.
- 11:54Speaker 2: That one's for you. You can have it. That one
- 11:56Speaker 2: was free.
- 11:57Speaker 3: The next one must send you an invoice.
- 11:59Speaker 2: It's interesting, too, like, because when I talked to Bert,

- 12:43Speaker 7: No, no, no.
- 12:43Speaker 4: That I'll say. So I'm not shitting on Burt. Obviously, Burt's,
- 12:46Speaker 4: I love Burt. We kind of came up together. Oh,
- 12:48Speaker 4: that's already clipped.
- 12:49Speaker 3: Everything you just said is clipped.
- 12:50Speaker 1: We're not going to clip this part. Clip that out
- 12:52Speaker 1: and then put that out.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Just put that out. And then the retraction of, whoa,
- 12:57Speaker 2: I really like Burt.
- 12:58Speaker 1: You know, as I'm telling Burt.
- 13:00Speaker 4: But Burt is, Burt's an entertainer. Burt loves entertaining. And
- 13:05Speaker 4: the shirt comes off. He is the guy you want
- 13:08Speaker 4: to hang out with on the road. We, we toured
- 13:10Speaker 4: together for two or three years doing this Jamison whiskey tour.
- 13:14Speaker 4: I've never said anything like it. Like he brings a
- 13:16Speaker 4: fucking carnival atmosphere anywhere he goes. So you think it's like,
- 13:20Speaker 4: that's an act. It's like, no, that's him nonstop. He
- 13:23Speaker 4: would get like parlor games going where we'd, we'd be
- 13:26Speaker 4: booze and after shows and we get a crowd of
- 13:29Speaker 4: kids around us and he'd hold two beer steins competing
- 13:32Speaker 4: against somebody. and money on the line. The whole bar
- 13:35Speaker 4: is in on this thing. I remember the first time
- 13:37Speaker 4: I was dating my girlfriend at the time, now my wife.
- 13:42Speaker 4: She's from Minnesota.
- 13:44Speaker 1: She's not used to, like, carny lifestyle, right?
- 13:46Speaker 4: And so she comes to the show in Milwaukee, and.
- 13:50Speaker 1: We're just hanging out at the show. She's like, wow,
- 13:52Speaker 1: that was really fun.
- 13:52Speaker 4: And Billy Gardell was there, who's on Mike and Molly,
- 13:54Speaker 4: and Burt was on it, and I was on it.
- 13:57Speaker 4: And Burt comes busting out of the green room in
- 14:00Speaker 4: a cowboy hat, cowboy boots and butt naked and my
- 14:05Speaker 4: wife's like what the fuck is that And I'm like,
- 14:09Speaker 4: that's Burt.
- 14:09Speaker 2: That's Burt. She goes, is it always like this? I'm like,
- 14:12Speaker 2: with him it is, yeah.
- 14:13Speaker 4: It's always like that with him.
- 14:15Speaker 3: He's just fucking crazy. Did you see the video of
- 14:17Speaker 3: him the other day? He's on stage with a sock
- 14:19Speaker 3: on his penis.
- 14:19Speaker 1: Yeah, goddamn comedy jam, yeah. Is that a normal deal?
- 14:23Speaker 4: Am I talking about something that everyone's doing over there? No,
- 14:26Speaker 4: not everybody does that show on a fucking sock. I
- 14:28Speaker 4: for sure would not, because I'd have ankle socks on mine.
- 14:32Speaker 1: But they get the rubber bands.
- 14:33Speaker 2: They keep it on.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Okay, I was going to say.
- 14:35Speaker 2: When he was moving.
- 14:36Speaker 3: Around, I was like, how's he keeping your sight set
- 14:39Speaker 3: right on that piece? Like, is that thing going to
- 14:40Speaker 3: flop off? You know, because I legit, in my head,
- 14:42Speaker 3: I was like, because when you watch videos, sometimes you
- 14:44Speaker 3: put yourself in the video. Like, what if I did that?
- 14:46Speaker 3: And I'm watching, I'm like, that shit would be off
- 14:47Speaker 3: in a second. I didn't know they were putting rubber
- 14:49Speaker 3: bands on it.
- 14:49Speaker 2: I think Bert put it around his penis end balls
- 14:52Speaker 2: and then rubber banded.
- 14:53Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 14:53Speaker 7: I don't think you heard what Steve said, what his
- 14:55Speaker 7: sock would be. Oh, I'd have an ankle sock.
- 14:57Speaker 2: Yeah. A newborn sock. Oh my God.
- 15:04Speaker 1: I'm new, I'm new, boy.
- 15:05Speaker 4: Baby shoe off the fucking rear view. But Burt is
- 15:08Speaker 4: one of the nicest comics in the business. And from
- 15:12Speaker 4: A to Z, from him struggling at the Boston Comedy
- 15:15Speaker 4: Club and struggling at sets in New York, to like
- 15:17Speaker 4: blowing up right now to being one of the biggest
- 15:19Speaker 4: comics in the country and one of the biggest draws,
- 15:22Speaker 4: there isn't a comic in this industry that doesn't say,
- 15:25Speaker 4: I'm fucking happy. I'm so happy. I mean, everybody's happy
- 15:28Speaker 4: for that dude because he's a grinder, a total grinder.
- 15:31Speaker 4: And One of the most given comics too.
- 15:32Speaker 3: Some of the stories he was telling on this podcast
- 15:34Speaker 3: was wild. How he had to like really check himself
- 15:36Speaker 3: when Segura was getting paid like $ 20, 000 a set or
- 15:38Speaker 3: something like that. He was getting $ 2, 000. He had to
- 15:40Speaker 3: realize like, I got to pick it up or something
- 15:43Speaker 3: like that.
- 15:43Speaker 2: He was doing it as much as he could.
- 15:45Speaker 3: He was jack of all trading. He wasn't just really
- 15:47Speaker 3: honing in on that one craft.
- 15:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 15:49Speaker 3: But he seems like a well-rounded dude.
- 15:51Speaker 1: Which I think, comes back for him, comes back to
- 15:54Speaker 1: him now.
- 15:54Speaker 2: Cause you get to look back at the old stuff
- 15:56Speaker 2: and it's extremely funny.
- 15:57Speaker 1: It's so much to play off.
- 15:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 15:59Speaker 1: Here's like a typical comic, right?
- 16:01Speaker 4: So I'm doing this film, the opening act about like
- 16:03Speaker 4: a comics first time on the road.
- 16:05Speaker 1: I reach out to Bert. Bert doesn't call me back.
- 16:08Speaker 4: Right.
- 16:08Speaker 1: Which is typical of Bert. If you know Bert.
- 16:12Speaker 4: So I just, I'm trying to cast this role as
- 16:14Speaker 4: a cop in this movie. So I text him and
- 16:17Speaker 4: I'm like, Hey man, you have Tom's number and he
- 16:19Speaker 4: gives it back to me. And I call Tom and
- 16:21Speaker 4: I cast Tom in the movie. Now Bert's fucking furious.
- 16:24Speaker 4: What the fuck, man? You cast Tom in the goddamn movie?
- 16:27Speaker 4: I'm like, you didn't fucking call me back. I called you.
- 16:30Speaker 4: You didn't call me back. So I got Tom's. Now
- 16:32Speaker 4: I put Tom in the fucking thing. He's like, it's
- 16:34Speaker 4: fucking bullshit, man. I don't fucking believe you. All this
- 16:37Speaker 4: other stuff. And it becomes this fun runner, right? So
- 16:40Speaker 4: I'm about to do the podcast to promote the film
- 16:43Speaker 4: that Tom's in, right? And he brings it up again.
- 16:45Speaker 4: But before, I knew he was going to bring it up.
- 16:47Speaker 4: So I brought up an email that Vince Vaughn and
- 16:49Speaker 4: Peter Billingsley, the producers, were on. And I said, here's
- 16:51Speaker 4: who I want to cast in the film. You know,
- 16:54Speaker 4: like Sarah Tiana is the secretary and Bert Kreischer is
- 16:57Speaker 4: the cop. They go, they signed off on it. I go, great.
- 16:59Speaker 4: So it's all like dated, everything. I sent it to Bert.
- 17:02Speaker 4: I go, look, I fucking did it. I cast you
- 17:04Speaker 4: in the goddamn thing. You didn't get back to me. So, okay, okay, okay.
- 17:07Speaker 4: I saw it. I saw it.
- 17:08Speaker 1: I saw it.
- 17:09Speaker 2: Okay.
- 17:09Speaker 1: He was actually, he was actually mad that he didn't
- 17:11Speaker 1: get in the movie.
- 17:12Speaker 4: He was pissed.
- 17:13Speaker 2: And then.
- 17:13Speaker 3: I'd be mad if I didn't get in the movie. Oh,
- 17:15Speaker 3: we're missing a phone call?
- 17:15Speaker 2: It'd be tough.
- 17:16Speaker 4: Then he's doing, we had that conversation before. Then he's
- 17:19Speaker 4: in his film, right? Mm-hmm. He's going off to Bulgaria
- 17:22Speaker 4: to film his film.
- 17:23Speaker 1: Congratulations.
- 17:24Speaker 4: So happy for you. Earn this, all this stuff. And
- 17:26Speaker 4: I'm sending him goodwill, whatever. And then I'm thinking, this
- 17:29Speaker 4: piece of shit. He fucking rakes me over the coals
- 17:33Speaker 4: for now. And then he's putting everybody in this bath
- 17:35Speaker 4: sauna scene. I'm like, you piece of fucking shit. You
- 17:37Speaker 4: didn't put me in your fucking movie. And I actually
- 17:40Speaker 4: did cast you. Fuck you, Bert. Is that the camera
- 17:43Speaker 4: right there?
- 17:43Speaker 1: Fuck you. I love you, but yeah.
- 17:46Speaker 2: I love you, but... God damn.
- 17:47Speaker 1: But I'm happy for that dude. I mean, he's a
- 17:50Speaker 1: party everywhere he goes.
- 17:51Speaker 2: He's the best.
- 17:52Speaker 3: Is he by far the most fun to tour with?
- 17:54Speaker 4: Without a doubt.
- 17:55Speaker 2: Really?
- 17:55Speaker 4: The most fun comic. Although I'll say this, I started
- 17:59Speaker 4: working with Joe Gatto from... Bro, he is so funny
- 18:02Speaker 4: in Impractical Jokers. He was of the four, in my opinion,
- 18:05Speaker 4: the most shameless. He did not care, would do anything.
- 18:09Speaker 2: Would do absolutely... Dude, you watch that show? Yeah.
- 18:11Speaker 3: Bro, you rolling laughing watching that show.
- 18:13Speaker 1: We were trying to come up with some of our
- 18:14Speaker 1: bits that we were going to do with.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Tyler Hubbard by just watching Impractical Jokers all day.
- 18:21Speaker 4: Long I remember we did this Nashville comedy festival that
- 18:28Speaker 4: was here and the Jokers were on it and at
- 18:30Speaker 4: the time I had this Sullivan show we were on
- 18:32Speaker 4: it and so we were always hanging out and drinking
- 18:34Speaker 4: together and we were fucking boozing and Joe's on the
- 18:39Speaker 4: other side of this bar I'm on this side we're
- 18:41Speaker 4: all standing up like Colin Jost is there we're singing
- 18:44Speaker 4: Piano Man and then Joe jumps off the center and
- 18:47Speaker 4: starts dancing. He's taking his shirt off and stuff. I'm like, man,
- 18:50Speaker 4: this dude's fucking crazy. He's fucking great. And then I
- 18:53Speaker 4: found out he doesn't drink. I was like, you do
- 18:56Speaker 4: all this shit sober. You're like, you're dancing, doing the
- 18:58Speaker 4: worm with your gut out and stuff. And you don't
- 19:00Speaker 4: have any liquor. He's like, no, I'm like, that's the fucking,
- 19:02Speaker 4: I couldn't get my head around it. So, so he
- 19:05Speaker 4: started to stand up.
- 19:06Speaker 2: He's like, let's go.
- 19:07Speaker 4: He loves gambling. So we go to craps table and
- 19:10Speaker 4: nothing to love. What's that?
- 19:13Speaker 3: It's a thing to love.
- 19:13Speaker 2: Gambling?
- 19:15Speaker 4: He loves it. He loves, loves it. But craps is
- 19:17Speaker 4: the thing. He loves getting a good community around it.
- 19:20Speaker 3: That is a fun time. It's the best social gambling
- 19:23Speaker 3: game you can do.
- 19:23Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so communal, right?
- 19:24Speaker 4: Yes. But he gives you license to, like, have fun
- 19:28Speaker 4: because he's having fun. He's shitting on the dealer, calling
- 19:31Speaker 4: them shit show, senior shit show, miss shit show, like
- 19:35Speaker 4: in a fun, lovable.
- 19:35Speaker 2: Way when he's losing.
- 19:37Speaker 1: And then there was this thing where this kid... would
- 19:40Speaker 1: always roll.
- 19:41Speaker 4: And he'd look at me and we'd make eye contact.
- 19:43Speaker 4: So you kind of like have a little fun. You're
- 19:44Speaker 4: like batting your eyes, you're licking your lips and stuff.
- 19:46Speaker 4: And then he keeps, he keeps winning. I'm like, fuck,
- 19:49Speaker 4: I got to keep up.
- 19:50Speaker 1: In the game.
- 19:50Speaker 4: So like, so he's, he's getting ready to roll. I
- 19:53Speaker 4: sneak up behind him. I go between his legs. I'm
- 19:55Speaker 4: down on the ground between his legs, looking up at
- 19:57Speaker 4: him like this. And he maintains eye contact, rolls it.
- 20:01Speaker 4: Joe hits a horn high aces on it and wins
- 20:04Speaker 4: like 1750. So now I'm like constantly doing shit. And,
- 20:08Speaker 4: You know, his buddy lifts me up. I put my
- 20:11Speaker 4: feet on the fucking craps table, and I'm starting to
- 20:13Speaker 4: finger myself.
- 20:13Speaker 2: And I'm like, ah.
- 20:16Speaker 4: Hey, yo.
- 20:16Speaker 2: This man's diabolical.
- 20:19Speaker 4: And then he hits on the fucking monster bet, and
- 20:22Speaker 4: they're like, oh, my God. Like, it kept going.
- 20:24Speaker 2: What'd you do next? Then I... You guys come in,
- 20:27Speaker 2: and I start jerking them off. I had one guy
- 20:29Speaker 2: up here, two guys over here.
- 20:31Speaker 1: Funny you bring it up.
- 20:31Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:33Speaker 4: I got two bottles of water, and as he's doing it,
- 20:36Speaker 4: I'm going like this. And then I go... And I
- 20:39Speaker 4: squirt the water all over me and I'm just drenched
- 20:41Speaker 4: in water. And again, he hits. The kid rolled for
- 20:44Speaker 4: an hour in like five minutes.
- 20:46Speaker 2: No way.
- 20:47Speaker 4: And I was doing all this crazy shit.
- 20:48Speaker 1: I was exhausted. But it's because Gatto was like egging
- 20:51Speaker 1: me on.
- 20:51Speaker 4: And he's that guy that's like so like he pratfalls everywhere.
- 20:55Speaker 4: We're in the airport and he'll walk towards somebody's luggage
- 21:00Speaker 4: and he'll just trip over it. And he'll pick it up.
- 21:02Speaker 4: He's like, oh, I'm so sorry. But he can't get
- 21:04Speaker 4: up either. Like the first two. He's got to wrestle
- 21:07Speaker 4: with the thing. It's nonstop.
- 21:09Speaker 2: No cameras on. He's still doing that. No cameras.
- 21:11Speaker 4: He still does it.
- 21:12Speaker 2: No way.
- 21:14Speaker 4: If there's like stanchions, he'll walk through the stanchion and
- 21:17Speaker 4: get wrapped up in it and pull them both down
- 21:19Speaker 4: and create the biggest bang you've ever heard. People like, oh,
- 21:22Speaker 4: my God, are you OK? Aren't you from Brad? He's like, no,
- 21:25Speaker 4: I'm not that guy. And then he'll just run away.
- 21:26Speaker 4: It's fucking crazy. He'll just run away, dude. That's so funny.
- 21:31Speaker 4: It is really fucking funny.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 21:33Speaker 4: We do a pod together called Two Cool Moms where
- 21:35Speaker 4: we take people's, like, questions and answers.
- 21:38Speaker 2: Jack loves moms.
- 21:39Speaker 3: Jack loves moms, dude. Who else loves moms? The quarterback
- 21:43Speaker 3: for the Jets.
- 21:43Speaker 4: What's his name?
- 21:43Speaker 2: Jack Wilson.
- 21:44Speaker 3: Jack Wilson loves moms.
- 21:46Speaker 1: Pretty much.
- 21:47Speaker 5: I guess I'm the designated mom guy now.
- 21:49Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 21:50Speaker 3: Talked about it last pod. It's crazy because when Jack
- 21:52Speaker 3: first came on.
- 21:52Speaker 1: He was banging in juice boxes.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
- 21:54Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 21:55Speaker 2: Jack.
- 21:57Speaker 3: Jack, when he first came on, we tried to get him, what,
- 21:59Speaker 3: Pothead Jack?
- 22:00Speaker 5: Stoner Jack.
- 22:01Speaker 2: Stoner Jack.
- 22:01Speaker 3: And he was not happy. He's like, guys, my parents,
- 22:04Speaker 3: we can't do that. We bring a MILF lover, and.
- 22:06Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, I can handle that. I can handle
- 22:09Speaker 2: being a MILF lover. Well, there must be, Jeremy, because
- 22:11Speaker 2: it was my career. I wasn't getting paid at the time.
- 22:13Speaker 2: You guys were just calling me Stoner Jack. How long
- 22:14Speaker 2: you had the stash?
- 22:16Speaker 3: A couple years now. He's had that mustard for a
- 22:18Speaker 3: little bit.
- 22:19Speaker 2: Somebody brought up a very good point. Billy off Stranger Things.
- 22:22Speaker 2: I feel like it's a vibe you're going for. Is
- 22:24Speaker 2: that true or false?
- 22:25Speaker 5: It wasn't like my intention, but I can see it
- 22:28Speaker 5: for sure.
- 22:29Speaker 2: You go a little bit longer.
- 22:30Speaker 5: In the show, Billy goes for Mike's mom.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Yeah, that's why. Maybe Jack is doing it.
- 22:38Speaker 4: I'm glad to hear you like moms because you do
- 22:39Speaker 4: look like every other Amber.
- 22:44Speaker 2: Alert.
- 22:48Speaker 3: The first week I watched Titanic with my grandma in theaters.
- 22:50Speaker 1: Did you cry?
- 22:51Speaker 3: Oh, well, no, I didn't cry. I was too young
- 22:53Speaker 3: to feel the emotions of the movie. Ever since when
- 22:55Speaker 3: the boobs came out, it was kind of, the whole
- 22:57Speaker 3: movie was a blur after that, you know? When she said,
- 22:59Speaker 3: paint me like your French girls.
- 23:00Speaker 1: I was like, man, we're done. It's weird to jerk
- 23:01Speaker 1: off in front of your grandma.
- 23:02Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tough.
- 23:03Speaker 7: That was awkward, though.
- 23:04Speaker 2: Those boobs came out, she's sitting right next to you,
- 23:06Speaker 2: she put her hand over my eyes, and I'm like,
- 23:09Speaker 2: get out of.
- 23:09Speaker 1: The way, dude. I feel like that was my first
- 23:11Speaker 1: movie where my parents had to cover my eyes, too.
- 23:12Speaker 2: That was the first pair of boobs I ever saw, and, like,
- 23:14Speaker 2: it changed me. Yeah. In Titanic? Titanic, yeah.
- 23:16Speaker 3: It's still probably a top five movie to me of
- 23:18Speaker 3: all time.
- 23:19Speaker 2: Really? I love that movie.
- 23:20Speaker 1: I saw it.
- 23:22Speaker 3: Fuck, it's been a few years for sure. No, no,
- 23:24Speaker 3: it's been like six months. I watched it during the season.
- 23:26Speaker 3: Maybe after week one. I had a tough week one
- 23:28Speaker 3: and I really just wanted to get emotional.
- 23:29Speaker 2: Before you go to the gym, you get pumped up.
- 23:33Speaker 2: I'm flying with you, Jack.
- 23:34Speaker 1: Dude, you can sing though. You sang a jelly roll.
- 23:37Speaker 2: Thank you for saying that, dude. Is that a bad
- 23:39Speaker 2: thing that he said?
- 23:40Speaker 4: Jelly roll? I was like, oh shit.
- 23:42Speaker 3: Wolfie's like, I've never seen someone go up there and
- 23:44Speaker 3: just give it. In my head, I was like, I'm
- 23:47Speaker 3: about to blow these people away. I have no idea
- 23:50Speaker 3: how it actually went.
- 23:51Speaker 4: Yeah, it was great. I'll tell you, first off, Jelly
- 23:54Speaker 4: Roll could do stand-up. Oh, my God, bro.
- 23:57Speaker 2: He'd be so good.
- 23:59Speaker 1: You can do stand-up. I appreciate that. There's more here.
- 24:03Speaker 4: Knowing you and then hanging with you and then being
- 24:05Speaker 4: on the show, I like, there's a, cause I watched
- 24:09Speaker 4: the clips, this, you guys have more chemistry than some
- 24:12Speaker 4: comics on their podcasts and you could do this.
- 24:15Speaker 1: You could do standup. I'm sure if you wanted to. Well,
- 24:17Speaker 1: you texted me.
- 24:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 24:19Speaker 3: And I was at August 4th.
- 24:20Speaker 4: Cause we're hanging backstage and you, you had said two
- 24:22Speaker 4: or three, two or three funny things in the, in
- 24:24Speaker 4: the green room. I was like, Oh fuck you. You
- 24:26Speaker 4: gotta go into humor. But you, I think what's like
- 24:29Speaker 4: doing this is one thing. but then being on stage
- 24:32Speaker 4: and you have to have like presence, right? You have
- 24:35Speaker 4: to have some semblance of presence, even like somebody like Nate,
- 24:38Speaker 4: who's pretty like dry in terms of his delivery. He
- 24:40Speaker 4: still has a great presence on stage, you know, Jeselnik
- 24:44Speaker 4: incredibly dry. He just gives nothing to the audience, but
- 24:47Speaker 4: he definitely has a different presence than like Chrysler, for example, or,
- 24:51Speaker 4: but you guys both have a great presence. And that
- 24:54Speaker 4: night you did it. I was, I was really blown
- 24:56Speaker 4: away to know that that was the first time you
- 24:58Speaker 4: had been on stage, but then to deliver jokes like
- 25:00Speaker 4: that was fucking great.
- 25:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like you would be really good at that.
- 25:03Speaker 3: Writing and all that. We've talked about it a bunch.
- 25:05Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 25:05Speaker 1: It's funny, dude. Yeah.
- 25:06Speaker 2: It was funny to see it.
- 25:07Speaker 1: Can I do live shows all over the world? Next
- 25:10Speaker 1: to the Ryman, baby.
- 25:12Speaker 2: We're doing the Ryman.
- 25:13Speaker 4: Well, we haven't.
- 25:13Speaker 2: No, no, we haven't. But we are putting... The Ryman said.
- 25:16Speaker 3: We said, hey, we're doing the Ryman X and the
- 25:17Speaker 3: Ryman Twitter, like, sent some eyes, so... You guys are
- 25:20Speaker 3: crushing it. I guess you could say it's in the
- 25:21Speaker 3: word crush, I'm telling you. Yeah, well, I feel like
- 25:22Speaker 3: we could do... We could do, like, go to our spots.
- 25:24Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 25:25Speaker 2: Where we feel like we'd get a crowd and do
- 25:26Speaker 2: a live show, especially for Bust with the Boys.
- 25:27Speaker 3: The live show was a blast, and we did... We
- 25:30Speaker 3: got the live show. Will called me. He said, hey,
- 25:32Speaker 3: do you want to do a live show at Zany's?
- 25:33Speaker 3: And I was like, yeah, sounds good, because you'll... agree
- 25:35Speaker 3: to anything if it's far enough away you don't really
- 25:37Speaker 3: think about it too much right right yeah so it
- 25:39Speaker 3: gets closer and closer and i'm like hey we should
- 25:40Speaker 3: uh i even go to will i'm like we should
- 25:42Speaker 3: probably write a couple things about what we should do
- 25:44Speaker 3: yeah and did not do a fucking thing right didn't
- 25:47Speaker 3: do a thing and there was a couple people from
- 25:49Speaker 3: barstool that came to see the show like hey did
- 25:51Speaker 3: you guys prepare anything like no Not at all.
- 25:53Speaker 2: I sent you because we could never get with Steve
- 25:55Speaker 2: because I was like, Steve wants to sit with us.
- 25:57Speaker 2: That's right. Because he sent the email and I was like, hey,
- 25:59Speaker 2: check out this email. And then, yes, you got to
- 26:01Speaker 2: go to KFC where it's like, all right, they have
- 26:02Speaker 2: a podcast. They're doing a live show.
- 26:04Speaker 3: I made it a huge point to go there because
- 26:06Speaker 3: they asked both of us to come on the show.
- 26:08Speaker 2: Will couldn't. He just had a new baby.
- 26:09Speaker 3: So I was like, I'll go because I really want
- 26:10Speaker 3: to see what the vibe was like on a stage
- 26:13Speaker 3: like that and everything. And once I left there, I
- 26:15Speaker 3: was like, we're going to be just fine. but it
- 26:17Speaker 3: was nerve wracking before, like sitting in that green room.
- 26:19Speaker 2: I was nervous. You were not, you were nervous. Cause
- 26:22Speaker 2: I was nervous about the standup.
- 26:23Speaker 3: So his, his nerve level for the show was like,
- 26:25Speaker 3: we're good. And you got a buddy with you too.
- 26:27Speaker 3: Like there's a, you have a buddy. Like when we're us, like, yeah.
- 26:30Speaker 4: It's so cool to see how supportive you were though
- 26:32Speaker 4: of him. That was really cool.
- 26:34Speaker 3: Cause that's a boy.
- 26:35Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 26:35Speaker 4: But I mean, most comics don't have that. Like you're,
- 26:37Speaker 4: you're kind of going up for the first time and
- 26:39Speaker 4: you're new to the scene. You don't have anybody really there,
- 26:42Speaker 4: but to see how supportive you were beaming about him
- 26:44Speaker 4: and to, It was almost like you scored a touchdown
- 26:47Speaker 4: the way you came into the green room. It was
- 26:49Speaker 4: really cool to see.
- 26:50Speaker 3: I'll tell you.
- 26:51Speaker 2: It's my guy.
- 26:52Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 26:53Speaker 3: That's my guy right there. That's your boy. That was
- 26:56Speaker 3: one of the most fun nights I've had. That was
- 26:57Speaker 3: actually my first time in Zany's.
- 26:59Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
- 26:59Speaker 3: Spending time in there and then being around all y'all.
- 27:01Speaker 3: And after we're all drinking and the place is shut down.
- 27:04Speaker 1: Oh, that was such a good fucking time.
- 27:06Speaker 2: It was a, it was a.
- 27:07Speaker 3: Feeling you're like, man, like it's like living somewhere for
- 27:10Speaker 3: so long. And then you find out there's this whole
- 27:12Speaker 3: new world. That's just as exciting and more fun than
- 27:14Speaker 3: most of the things you usually do on a regular basis.
- 27:16Speaker 3: Instead of going to bars, like go to Zany's. It's
- 27:18Speaker 3: so much fun.
- 27:19Speaker 4: Like, even like last night I was at the comedy
- 27:20Speaker 4: cellar and every time I go, cause now I visit,
- 27:23Speaker 4: you know, I go and pop in and do my,
- 27:25Speaker 4: my sets and the cellar is like the club in
- 27:27Speaker 4: New York, right? You want to be passed there. It's
- 27:29Speaker 4: where everybody goes and meets and you walk in. And
- 27:31Speaker 4: Chris Rock's there. Kevin Hart's there. T.J. Miller's there. Mark
- 27:36Speaker 4: Norman's there. Sam Rill's there. And you just know, all right, T.J.
- 27:39Speaker 4: 's there.
- 27:40Speaker 1: Fuck, now I'm drinking. And, you know, you leave at
- 27:42Speaker 1: five in the morning.
- 27:43Speaker 4: But it's like that communal spot where, you know, you
- 27:46Speaker 4: could walk in with me and next thing you know,
- 27:47Speaker 4: you're sitting at a table with all the best comics
- 27:49Speaker 4: in New York City and you're just having a fucking blast.
- 27:52Speaker 3: Just stuff you couldn't even, you couldn't make up in
- 27:54Speaker 3: your own head as a child.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 27:56Speaker 1: I mean, Kevin's just, just like Mad Dog and me.
- 28:00Speaker 1: And I hadn't seen him in years.
- 28:01Speaker 4: We were just catching up and he's just going on
- 28:03Speaker 4: in this bit and I'm dying laughing. And then you're
- 28:06Speaker 4: watching him and Chris, they're filming a doc at the time.
- 28:09Speaker 4: And then TJ Miller, who's just, I think one of
- 28:12Speaker 4: the like, almost like an Andy Kaufman ask of like
- 28:16Speaker 4: standup comics where he'll just go up and just do
- 28:19Speaker 4: crazy shit outside the box. And he had the comic
- 28:23Speaker 4: before I was to go up after him. So he,
- 28:26Speaker 4: he was doing bits and then he had the MC
- 28:28Speaker 4: come back up and introduce him like two or three
- 28:30Speaker 4: more times. Cause he felt like it wasn't going well.
- 28:33Speaker 4: And then he was doing these bits and it was weird.
- 28:35Speaker 4: And then I said, what you should do is before
- 28:37Speaker 4: he brings me up, you go up again as yourself
- 28:40Speaker 4: when they bring me up.
- 28:41Speaker 1: And then he brought me up as Kevin Hart.
- 28:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 28:43Speaker 4: And so it was, it was fucking great. But that, that,
- 28:46Speaker 4: that club, this is my favorite seller story of all time.
- 28:50Speaker 4: I was just new there, maybe like a year in
- 28:53Speaker 4: and on any given night, anybody could walk through the door.
- 28:56Speaker 4: And so this, I'm maybe two years, a year in
- 29:00Speaker 4: on standup comedy, two years in. So I go in
- 29:02Speaker 4: and Godfrey's hosting and it's a Tuesday night. The cellar's
- 29:05Speaker 4: not the cellar like what it is now, right? Now
- 29:07Speaker 4: it's like a tourist spot and it's packed every night
- 29:09Speaker 4: and there's three different rooms. But then it was just
- 29:12Speaker 4: maybe a hundred people on a Tuesday night. Godfrey goes up.
- 29:16Speaker 4: He's like, ladies and gentlemen, this is why I love
- 29:19Speaker 4: the comedy cellar. You never know who's going to stop
- 29:21Speaker 4: in here tonight. So tonight we've got a special guest.
- 29:23Speaker 4: Ladies and gentlemen, How about it for Rob Williams? Rob
- 29:27Speaker 4: Williams goes up for like 30 minutes and just crushes, crushes, right?
- 29:30Speaker 4: And all the young comics are kind of waiting to
- 29:32Speaker 4: go up and stuff. And then Godfrey goes back up.
- 29:34Speaker 4: He's like, oh my God, you guys, you're never going
- 29:35Speaker 4: to believe this. How about a big round of applause?
- 29:38Speaker 2: Ray Romano.
- 29:38Speaker 4: Now everybody loves Raymond was still on the air. Ray
- 29:40Speaker 4: Romano comes in, place goes bananas. And then Godfrey goes
- 29:43Speaker 4: back up. He's like, guys, this is just one of
- 29:45Speaker 4: those nights. I can't believe I'm saying this, but ladies
- 29:48Speaker 4: and gentlemen, big round of applause. Dave Chappelle, Chappelle walks in.
- 29:51Speaker 4: They're losing their fucking minds.
- 29:52Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 29:52Speaker 1: It's Tuesday. They paid 10 bucks to go in. What
- 29:55Speaker 1: a win back up.
- 29:56Speaker 4: Comics are slowly like leaving. Cause they know the night's
- 29:59Speaker 4: getting longer.
- 29:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 30:00Speaker 4: Goes back up. Ladies and gentlemen, Jerry Seinfeld. Seinfeld comes in.
- 30:05Speaker 4: The fucking place. They're going nuts, right?
- 30:09Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 30:09Speaker 4: Seinfeld comes off. I'm the only one staying now, okay?
- 30:12Speaker 4: Because everybody's gone home now. And Godfrey goes back up.
- 30:16Speaker 4: He's like, Ladies and gentlemen, I can't believe I'm saying this.
- 30:19Speaker 4: I've never seen anything like this. Chris Rock. Chris Rock
- 30:21Speaker 4: goes up, fucking destroys, right? They're giving him a standing ovation.
- 30:25Speaker 3: How long are these sets they're doing?
- 30:26Speaker 4: They're all doing like 20, maybe a half hour. Holy shit,
- 30:29Speaker 4: so we're in there for three and a half hours now. Yeah,
- 30:31Speaker 4: those shows would go from 9 to 2 in the morning.
- 30:33Speaker 2: No way.
- 30:34Speaker 4: I was the only one that stayed left. Godfrey goes
- 30:37Speaker 4: back up. He goes, guys, you're not going to believe this.
- 30:40Speaker 4: I cannot believe I'm saying this. Ladies and gentlemen, Eddie Murphy.
- 30:44Speaker 4: People are fucking standing up, applauding, crying. He goes, just kidding,
- 30:49Speaker 4: Steve Byrne.
- 30:50Speaker 2: No shit. Oh my. So how'd you do?
- 30:54Speaker 4: I fucking bombed.
- 30:55Speaker 6: Oh my God.
- 30:58Speaker 4: I fucking ate a plate of dicks that night because
- 31:00Speaker 4: it was just like that sustainment of excitement and everything
- 31:03Speaker 4: that they had. But as a young comic, again, it's
- 31:05Speaker 4: one of those learning experiences where you're just watching the
- 31:08Speaker 4: best of the best and then going upstairs and hearing
- 31:10Speaker 4: their stories was fucking great.
- 31:12Speaker 3: Now, when you have that much star power around, you're
- 31:14Speaker 3: like new starting out. Is there like what you're allowed
- 31:17Speaker 3: to do and not allowed to do? Like, is there
- 31:18Speaker 3: like an unwritten rule of being able to like, hey,
- 31:20Speaker 3: you can only hang out for this long.
- 31:22Speaker 1: You probably shouldn't.
- 31:22Speaker 3: You don't want to sit there in the room with
- 31:24Speaker 3: everyone and kind of just stick around to be the
- 31:26Speaker 3: guy that sticks around for too long.
- 31:27Speaker 4: Well, at the cellar in particular, it's called the table
- 31:30Speaker 4: and the tables where only past comedians can sit there.
- 31:33Speaker 4: So you get a bunch of comics that come and
- 31:34Speaker 4: they want to be around. So they go off to
- 31:36Speaker 4: the other tables, but the table's the table. So you'd
- 31:39Speaker 4: sit at the table during your sets, but when those
- 31:41Speaker 4: guys come in, you just shut the fuck up and listen.
- 31:43Speaker 2: Really?
- 31:44Speaker 1: Some great stories, yeah.
- 31:45Speaker 2: God, that's awesome. That's incredible. I mean, you've been doing
- 31:48Speaker 2: comedy since 97.
- 31:50Speaker 1: 97, yeah.
- 31:50Speaker 2: 20 plus years now, so it's been a long time. Yeah,
- 31:54Speaker 2: like talk about that grind. I mean, you've been in
- 31:56Speaker 2: it for obviously... fucking it's.
- 31:59Speaker 4: The, it's the best job in the world. But I
- 32:01Speaker 4: think what I, what I like now is like seeing
- 32:04Speaker 4: all my friends hit at different times, right? Like Chrysler, again,
- 32:08Speaker 4: like a grinder that just kept getting passed up. Sebastian,
- 32:11Speaker 4: you know, I mean, the guy's doing what? Eight shows
- 32:14Speaker 4: sold out Madison square garden. And there was a period
- 32:17Speaker 4: of time where nobody wanted anything to do with him,
- 32:19Speaker 4: like nothing to do with him. But we all like,
- 32:22Speaker 4: at the store, we always would have impressions of comics
- 32:25Speaker 4: we loved and Sebastian had this joke. So anytime Sebastian
- 32:29Speaker 4: would be on stage, you know, you'd walk in and
- 32:31Speaker 4: be like, who's on stage? You go, Apple Martini. And
- 32:35Speaker 4: he's like, Oh, that's your way of saying Sebastian, you know?
- 32:37Speaker 4: So it's fun to see like guys hit at different
- 32:40Speaker 4: points that really deserve it. And then there's guys like
- 32:43Speaker 4: Steve Simone that, that don't hit, but you still love watching.
- 32:47Speaker 2: And I don't know.
- 32:47Speaker 4: It's just fun to, to see the growth. And even like,
- 32:51Speaker 4: Guys like Mark Norman and Sam Morrell, Joe List, these
- 32:54Speaker 4: guys in New York City, they're blowing up. It's fun
- 32:56Speaker 4: to see them take the industry within themselves, because before,
- 32:59Speaker 4: you'd have to wait for the anointment of the industry,
- 33:01Speaker 4: Netflix or HBO, to give you your first break. But
- 33:04Speaker 4: now it's like Andrew Schultz, you just release it on
- 33:07Speaker 4: your own platform, and then all the comics get together.
- 33:11Speaker 4: and via social media, blow it the fuck out to
- 33:13Speaker 4: help that individual. And now you're getting 10 million views
- 33:17Speaker 4: on YouTube and monetizing that and making just as much
- 33:19Speaker 4: money and kind of giving a finger to the industry,
- 33:21Speaker 4: which I love that. I can't believe Mark Norman, one
- 33:25Speaker 4: of the most prolific and Sam and Joe, these guys
- 33:28Speaker 4: are all joke writers.
- 33:30Speaker 1: They're craftsmen.
- 33:31Speaker 4: They really take their job seriously. And Netflix passed them up.
- 33:34Speaker 4: And it's like, now they're bigger than they, than, than ever.
- 33:37Speaker 4: They're doing figures and stuff and they deserve it.
- 33:39Speaker 5: Yes.
- 33:40Speaker 1: Because of politics.
- 33:41Speaker 4: I think the industry, you can't take it personally. I'm
- 33:45Speaker 4: sure much like your industry, there's a point where if
- 33:49Speaker 4: you get traded, you can let your emotions get involved,
- 33:53Speaker 4: but there is a business to this at the end
- 33:54Speaker 4: of the day too. And the industry in our business,
- 33:57Speaker 4: they're heat-seeking missiles. They want to go after people that
- 33:59Speaker 4: got a little heat or a little cachet. And every
- 34:01Speaker 4: few years, there's this new individual that comes out, the
- 34:04Speaker 4: industry backs, but But you got to go with the
- 34:08Speaker 4: tried and true, the people that are grinding like Mark
- 34:10Speaker 4: or Sam or Joe or, you know, any of us
- 34:12Speaker 4: when we're younger.
- 34:13Speaker 3: So you're saying, but with the new stuff, you don't
- 34:16Speaker 3: really need the Netflix anymore, huh? Same thing with Chris DiStefano.
- 34:20Speaker 3: He did his stand up and he's like, Netflix can
- 34:23Speaker 3: have it if they want it, blah, blah, blah. And
- 34:24Speaker 3: they ended up coming after He even filmed the thing. They,
- 34:27Speaker 3: everybody turned him down and then he released it on
- 34:28Speaker 3: YouTube or.
- 34:29Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 34:31Speaker 3: Shane Gillis as well. His shit is that stand up.
- 34:33Speaker 3: I thought the Stefano was hilarious too.
- 34:36Speaker 4: And all those guys, they took it upon themselves. And
- 34:38Speaker 4: before they were doing this, like Joe Coy is another
- 34:40Speaker 4: perfect example, right? The guy is blowing up. He's selling
- 34:43Speaker 4: out theaters. The industry wants nothing to do with them.
- 34:46Speaker 4: So he goes out and he's, he's got deep enough pockets.
- 34:48Speaker 4: He says, well, fuck it. I'll just film it myself.
- 34:50Speaker 4: He goes back home to Seattle, gets a big theater.
- 34:53Speaker 4: blows it the fuck out, looks at the credits, goes,
- 34:55Speaker 4: is the DP on that thing?
- 34:56Speaker 1: I'll call him up.
- 34:57Speaker 4: He's the director on that.
- 34:58Speaker 1: I'll call him up.
- 35:00Speaker 4: Gets all the people that worked on the other ones,
- 35:02Speaker 4: puts the sweat equity and money value into it, and
- 35:05Speaker 4: then goes back to it and says, this should be
- 35:08Speaker 4: on it. They go, yeah, fuck, of course, yeah. And
- 35:10Speaker 4: then it goes on, and now he's got a film
- 35:11Speaker 4: with Steven Spielberg. It's like, yeah, he took it, again,
- 35:16Speaker 4: all these guys we're talking about took a gamble on
- 35:18Speaker 4: themselves and took money out of their pocket and put
- 35:21Speaker 4: production value behind the things that they're doing. And now
- 35:24Speaker 4: they're being rewarded for it. And they, they deserve it too.
- 35:26Speaker 4: Cause it's talent meets sweat equity meets commerce. So when you're.
- 35:30Speaker 3: Talking about comics and different styles, storytellers and joke writers,
- 35:34Speaker 3: craftsmen and stuff like that, is there like, kind of
- 35:37Speaker 3: a seasonal thing. Like, people are really into, like, shock
- 35:39Speaker 3: comedy right now, or people are really into storytelling right now,
- 35:42Speaker 3: that maybe the industry gets behind. Like, someone could be
- 35:44Speaker 3: behind Bert Kreischer, and there's, like, a Ralphie May, or
- 35:46Speaker 3: it's like, oh, this dude's just kind of saying whatever.
- 35:47Speaker 4: I think it depends on the voice, right? I mean,
- 35:49Speaker 4: there's different voices for different periods of time, right? Like, Bert,
- 35:52Speaker 4: Bill Burr is, I think, the voice of right now.
- 35:57Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 35:57Speaker 4: You have.
- 35:58Speaker 2: He's Mount Rushmore, isn't he?
- 36:00Speaker 1: I mean, Mount Rushmore.
- 36:03Speaker 4: For me, yeah, I'd probably put him up there, but
- 36:06Speaker 4: I also started with him, so I don't look at
- 36:09Speaker 4: him like everybody else does, you know, where it's like, oh,
- 36:11Speaker 4: my God, it's Bill Burr. It's like, you know, this
- 36:13Speaker 4: is Bill, who we would perform at Dangerfields in front
- 36:17Speaker 4: of 15 people, and he would go on these, you know,
- 36:20Speaker 4: quote-unquote misogynistic.
- 36:21Speaker 1: Kicks, and I would see a 65-year-old woman.
- 36:27Speaker 1: Go and go to strangle Bill Burr.
- 36:29Speaker 2: Little danger field.
- 36:30Speaker 4: She got up and Bill just took the mic stand
- 36:33Speaker 4: and held it in front of him like this. He's like, lady,
- 36:35Speaker 4: you can't do this. You can't do this lady. Cause
- 36:37Speaker 4: there was no security. So Bill's just like holding it
- 36:40Speaker 4: like the crucifix and the exorcist backing her away. And
- 36:43Speaker 4: eventually her husband came and dragged her off. But, but
- 36:46Speaker 4: I mean, Burr is, yeah. I mean, he's definitely the
- 36:50Speaker 4: comic right now. I I'd put him above, uh, chapelle
- 36:53Speaker 4: even i think in terms of just hitting a different
- 36:56Speaker 4: stride and blowing up and being so well received that
- 36:58Speaker 4: he is this lightning rod for comedy right now that
- 37:01Speaker 4: everybody knows and loves him who would be on your
- 37:02Speaker 4: mount rushmore uh carlin prior rock for me i love
- 37:07Speaker 4: chris rock i i i put bill burther yeah yeah
- 37:12Speaker 4: but i i i don't know there's also i don't
- 37:14Speaker 4: know there's so many different factions stand up too so
- 37:16Speaker 4: I know this is like a comedy, a comedian episode.
- 37:19Speaker 4: There's no laughs because I'm talking about the art of comedy.
- 37:22Speaker 2: No, this is awesome.
- 37:23Speaker 1: Yeah, I love this.
- 37:25Speaker 5: I don't know.
- 37:25Speaker 4: There's so many just different gears. I'm reading that book,
- 37:28Speaker 4: Elvis in Vegas, but the book's really about entertainment in Vegas,
- 37:32Speaker 4: how Vegas came to be, and all these great performers
- 37:35Speaker 4: and entertainers that performed out of Vegas. I love Dean Martin.
- 37:40Speaker 4: I love Bob Hope. I love Johnny Carson. I'll watch.
- 37:43Speaker 4: I love Dangerfield. Dangerfield's one of my favorites. And you
- 37:46Speaker 4: could watch a Dangerfield set today and you could put
- 37:49Speaker 4: it in front of, we're all different brackets of ages
- 37:52Speaker 4: and generations.
- 37:53Speaker 2: You could put Dangerfield on right now. Fucking kills. Still kills.
- 37:57Speaker 4: My wife is so ugly. I took her to the
- 37:59Speaker 4: fishing pier. All the fishermen go, oh, what bait you use?
- 38:02Speaker 4: I mean, that's a fucking great joke. It's so quick
- 38:05Speaker 4: and just right there and compact.
- 38:08Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 38:08Speaker 4: I love like that kind of delivery. I love Weekend Update,
- 38:11Speaker 4: watching Colin Jost and Michael Che.
- 38:14Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 38:14Speaker 1: And they got evergreen kind of one-liners.
- 38:16Speaker 3: Have you seen the skit they did where they wrote
- 38:18Speaker 3: each other's jokes?
- 38:19Speaker 1: That's the fucking best. Probably the funniest thing I've ever seen.
- 38:22Speaker 2: Absolutely. It is hilarious.
- 38:23Speaker 4: It's my favorite thing. And they truly don't know. And
- 38:26Speaker 4: Chet loves to bury Jost.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Oh my God.
- 38:29Speaker 2: Kills that man.
- 38:29Speaker 4: But Jost, Jost is such a great writer. People don't know.
- 38:34Speaker 4: That guy was a head writer like in his twenties.
- 38:37Speaker 4: So that's, he came out on the road with me
- 38:39Speaker 4: when he was just writing and for three summers, he
- 38:42Speaker 4: would just come out and we got to know each other.
- 38:44Speaker 4: And that dude is prolific. We just went and did
- 38:47Speaker 4: a run of shows and we woke up at like eight,
- 38:52Speaker 4: golfed all day, hung out with the guys, had dinner
- 38:55Speaker 4: and lunch, you know, and then literally rushed back to
- 38:58Speaker 4: the hotel, shower up, go do the show in front
- 39:01Speaker 4: of 2000 people. And from the night before he had
- 39:03Speaker 4: 15 new minutes, I was like, when did you work
- 39:06Speaker 4: on that? He's like, Oh, it was just in my
- 39:07Speaker 4: head all day. I was like, But to prepare and memorize,
- 39:12Speaker 4: I'd have to sit down and put in a notebook
- 39:15Speaker 4: and write it out. And he just did it on stage.
- 39:17Speaker 2: It was fucking.
- 39:19Speaker 4: And when he would go on the road with me
- 39:20Speaker 4: in his 20s, he would have a new 15 minutes
- 39:23Speaker 4: every night.
- 39:24Speaker 1: I'm not joking. Every night. That's it's unheard of.
- 39:27Speaker 2: That's a gift.
- 39:28Speaker 1: That's how prolific he was.
- 39:29Speaker 2: It really is a gift.
- 39:30Speaker 1: He'd have three newspapers next to him at the pool.
- 39:32Speaker 1: He'd go swimming in the morning.
- 39:33Speaker 4: I remember I was hung over and I'd have to go.
- 39:35Speaker 1: Do morning radio.
- 39:37Speaker 4: That dude, I don't think I, I'm speaking out of school.
- 39:41Speaker 4: He's Harvard educated, good looking, handsome, married to a movie star.
- 39:45Speaker 4: He's the friend I have that shit his pants most
- 39:48Speaker 4: in public.
- 39:49Speaker 5: Really?
- 39:49Speaker 1: You want to hear shit your pants stories?
- 39:51Speaker 5: Yeah, do it.
- 39:51Speaker 4: Talk to Colin Jost. He shit his pants during finals
- 39:54Speaker 4: in Harvard where he's sitting in shit.
- 39:56Speaker 3: Does he have like irritable bowel syndrome or what's the deal?
- 40:00Speaker 2: What's going on with my man?
- 40:00Speaker 1: He's nervous like, I got to release him.
- 40:02Speaker 4: I don't know. He's a nervous shitter. I think he's
- 40:05Speaker 4: lactose intolerant. And we'd go get ice cream. He's like,
- 40:08Speaker 4: this is the gamble I'm willing to take every time
- 40:10Speaker 4: I have ice cream.
- 40:11Speaker 3: Ice cream's really like that, though. Ice cream's a tier
- 40:14Speaker 3: one dessert, in my opinion.
- 40:15Speaker 1: It's out there, dude.
- 40:16Speaker 4: So when I look at him, and he always lays
- 40:19Speaker 4: in shit jokes once every two or three weeks, and
- 40:21Speaker 4: I'm like, I know where this is coming from.
- 40:23Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 40:23Speaker 2: Because he experiences it himself. Is it hard to stay
- 40:27Speaker 2: patient for your time? And I'm not talking like you specifically,
- 40:30Speaker 2: but as you're coming up, staying patient, like you see,
- 40:33Speaker 2: You're growing through your career with all these guys. You
- 40:35Speaker 2: see guys at their moments.
- 40:36Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
- 40:37Speaker 1: You guys see that, too, in your industry.
- 40:40Speaker 4: Oh, for sure.
- 40:41Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely. You're getting rewarded.
- 40:43Speaker 3: It's a little bit different, though, because it's pretty cut
- 40:45Speaker 3: and dry in football. You're either producing or you're not producing.
- 40:49Speaker 3: There is politics when you get to the practice field
- 40:51Speaker 3: and camp. A guy who is undrafted is not going
- 40:54Speaker 3: to have a fair enough shot to a guy who's
- 40:55Speaker 3: a third-round pick or something like that. They're going to
- 40:57Speaker 3: give a guy the edge. But you get on the
- 40:59Speaker 3: field on a Sunday... And your ball, it's like, don't lie. Yeah,
- 41:03Speaker 3: it's cut and dry.
- 41:03Speaker 2: In comedy, it's more like it's a creative space. So
- 41:07Speaker 2: everybody's energy is a little bit different. And there's so
- 41:08Speaker 2: many different styles. Yeah, a lot of different styles. And
- 41:11Speaker 2: it's longer. Like, you've been on the stage since 97.
- 41:13Speaker 2: It's like football is a finite career, like a very
- 41:15Speaker 2: short career.
- 41:16Speaker 4: Yeah, look, I mean, the healthiest way to do it is,
- 41:21Speaker 4: I always got in the mindset of, like, we're all golfing.
- 41:24Speaker 4: I got to concentrate on my game. I can't concentrate
- 41:26Speaker 4: on your game. Your game means.
- 41:27Speaker 1: Nothing to me.
- 41:28Speaker 4: I don't even golf, but that was the, my way
- 41:30Speaker 4: of making it analogous and healthy for myself.
- 41:32Speaker 2: Analogous.
- 41:33Speaker 1: I think the great thing. Hey, Google the hack.
- 41:36Speaker 2: You know what that word means?
- 41:37Speaker 1: I mean, analogy, but just like a bigger way of
- 41:39Speaker 1: saying it.
- 41:39Speaker 2: Thank God.
- 41:40Speaker 1: Hey, I was going to Google that later.
- 41:41Speaker 3: I was going to be in my van trying to
- 41:43Speaker 3: figure out.
- 41:43Speaker 1: Like, let's make it.
- 41:45Speaker 2: Oh.
- 41:46Speaker 4: Guys, I am half Korean.
- 41:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:48Speaker 3: Well, there it is. More waters we can't tread.
- 41:52Speaker 4: Let's talk about porn and you guys will demolish me, okay?
- 41:54Speaker 1: So I'm half Korean, ladies.
- 41:56Speaker 2: My search bar is a little different.
- 41:57Speaker 3: Your search bar is a little different?
- 41:59Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 41:59Speaker 4: But I think like in that industry, it's so easy
- 42:02Speaker 4: to see. But now what the difference was, the industry
- 42:07Speaker 4: would anoint certain individuals. Like Minnie Kaling, for example, right?
- 42:10Speaker 4: She was anointed pretty early on. Ivy League educated and
- 42:14Speaker 4: and just running with a great career. And I'm sure
- 42:17Speaker 4: she works really hard at it, of course. But but
- 42:20Speaker 4: but with comedy, the industry would anoint you based off
- 42:23Speaker 4: a great Tonight Show set. But if the booker didn't
- 42:26Speaker 4: like you, well, you're not getting on and you could
- 42:27Speaker 4: kill on the road. Nowadays, you don't need that shit.
- 42:31Speaker 4: Bird's a perfect example. Like the industry ignored him for years.
- 42:34Speaker 4: He just did a movie with Mark Hamill. I mean,
- 42:36Speaker 4: he did it on his own. Schultz did it on
- 42:39Speaker 4: his own. All these guys are doing it on their own.
- 42:40Speaker 4: Where's the co-MVP of this podcast right now? He's been
- 42:42Speaker 4: brought up a lot today.
- 42:43Speaker 1: Yeah, he has been talked about.
- 42:44Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 42:45Speaker 1: But I mean, I really am.
- 42:47Speaker 4: He's a great beacon of hope for people that are
- 42:49Speaker 4: talented that just got passed over.
- 42:52Speaker 1: And he did it on his own. And for me,
- 42:55Speaker 1: my journey, it's funny.
- 42:57Speaker 4: Over COVID, I watched my hour specials because for five years,
- 43:01Speaker 4: I've been working on this hour that I'm filming here
- 43:03Speaker 4: in Tennessee. I'm filming it Saturday, August 27th at the
- 43:07Speaker 4: Franklin Theater. And for years, everybody said no to me.
- 43:11Speaker 4: Nobody wanted my new hour. Like, nope, you're done. You're
- 43:14Speaker 4: like washed up. I had a sitcom. I had an,
- 43:16Speaker 4: and nobody wanted anything to do with me. And then
- 43:18Speaker 4: I had this film that came out during pandemic, of course,
- 43:21Speaker 4: and it did well, but well enough, right?
- 43:23Speaker 1: But it didn't have like a, an impact.
- 43:25Speaker 4: So I'm just sitting there waiting and waiting for like
- 43:28Speaker 4: a fucking yes. Will somebody say yes to this? And
- 43:30Speaker 4: I thought, okay, I'm thinking I'm gonna have to do
- 43:32Speaker 4: this on my own. But then finally somebody from Amazon
- 43:34Speaker 4: saw it, but it was only because I think I
- 43:36Speaker 4: had the time to go back and be accountable for
- 43:39Speaker 4: my act. I went back and I watched all my
- 43:41Speaker 4: hours and I was like, it was good. That's it.
- 43:44Speaker 4: It was good. It wasn't great.
- 43:47Speaker 3: Like if I were to listen to a podcast of
- 43:48Speaker 3: Will and I's, sometimes I'm like, why are people listening
- 43:51Speaker 3: to this? Like, it's just us hanging out, you know?
- 43:53Speaker 3: So you're going to be a massive critic of your
- 43:55Speaker 3: own self. Like you're just hearing yourself talk and everything.
- 43:57Speaker 4: But you got to be accountable for, I think it's
- 44:00Speaker 4: easy to go, oh, well, fuck it. Or they're racist
- 44:03Speaker 4: or I'm fucking great at this. You can make a
- 44:05Speaker 4: thousand excuses, but if you don't take the time to
- 44:07Speaker 4: look at yourself and go, no, it's just not good enough.
- 44:10Speaker 4: You didn't do well enough. You got to do better.
- 44:12Speaker 4: And so I pushed myself even further and harder and
- 44:16Speaker 4: really wrote and went out to my friends and said,
- 44:18Speaker 4: can you take a look at this?
- 44:19Speaker 1: Can you help me with this?
- 44:20Speaker 4: And, and then going, oh, this is, do you tweak this?
- 44:22Speaker 2: And that'd be fun.
- 44:23Speaker 4: And then it all kind of glums together. And then
- 44:25Speaker 4: after I did this self accountability, look at myself in
- 44:27Speaker 4: the mirror, I go, okay, now take another stab at it.
- 44:30Speaker 4: And I did. And then Amazon said, all right, let's
- 44:33Speaker 4: do it. And it took, that was the hardest.
- 44:37Speaker 2: Yes.
- 44:37Speaker 4: I've ever gotten in this industry. It took so much
- 44:40Speaker 4: fucking rejection. And so whether it hits, whether it doesn't,
- 44:44Speaker 4: I'm just fucking proud that finally, like I did the
- 44:47Speaker 4: work and it paid off and we'll see what happens.
- 44:49Speaker 2: That's awesome. And I like how you said all that
- 44:51Speaker 2: stuff too, with the self accountability aspect.
- 44:53Speaker 1: Cause you're like, yeah, we can come on.
- 44:54Speaker 2: And I feel like we obviously it's sometimes it sucks
- 44:57Speaker 2: to hear our voice over and over. But like with football....
- 45:01Speaker 1: You're right.
- 45:03Speaker 3: You ever hear yourself, like you play something back and
- 45:05Speaker 3: you're like, I sound like that?
- 45:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 45:06Speaker 3: Me, especially. The amount of times I had somebody go to,
- 45:09Speaker 3: I didn't think you'd sound like that because of how
- 45:10Speaker 3: big I am. What a tough life I'm living out here.
- 45:12Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
- 45:14Speaker 2: I like pudding.
- 45:15Speaker 1: I should sound.
- 45:16Speaker 2: Like the dude from the Allstate commercials. That black dude.
- 45:19Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
- 45:20Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 45:20Speaker 2: But I don't.
- 45:22Speaker 3: I sound like a fucking six-year-old.
- 45:23Speaker 2: That's what it is. There's a lot of guys who
- 45:25Speaker 2: would be in denial about their own game. Thinking like,
- 45:27Speaker 2: I'm not sure how I did. Bro, that is the
- 45:28Speaker 2: most annoying shit when people do that. I do that
- 45:30Speaker 2: sometimes though.
- 45:30Speaker 1: It's kind of like the same thing.
- 45:31Speaker 2: Like you go back and actually look at how you
- 45:33Speaker 2: play and then you go and get pure perspective. Like sometimes.
- 45:36Speaker 1: You might be nervous to go get another outside perspective.
- 45:38Speaker 2: That's got to be hard to do. But, like, going
- 45:40Speaker 2: against somebody, hey, actually, do, like, watch this for me.
- 45:43Speaker 2: Check this out for me. Give me your honest feedback. Like,
- 45:45Speaker 2: don't beat around the bush. Like, I think that's... But
- 45:49Speaker 2: isn't there, like, when somebody... You always see this, right?
- 45:51Speaker 4: Somebody has a breakout year, contract year, then they go to, like,
- 45:55Speaker 4: the Yankees, for example, whatever team you want, and they
- 45:58Speaker 4: get this major fucking contract, and then they just don't produce...
- 46:03Speaker 4: is there like a complacency when you hit on a
- 46:06Speaker 4: truly ridiculous amount of money that you see sometimes in athletes?
- 46:09Speaker 3: It takes, it's, it's all dependent on the individual.
- 46:11Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 46:12Speaker 3: Like some guys from going from somewhere, somewhere to somewhere else.
- 46:15Speaker 3: I think a lot of times is depends what position
- 46:17Speaker 3: you play. Like if you're a receiver and you had
- 46:19Speaker 3: all these yards, but they were throwing you the ball
- 46:20Speaker 3: all the time. And then you go to a team
- 46:22Speaker 3: that maybe has more players or something like that. And
- 46:23Speaker 3: you're not as utilizing that offense.
- 46:25Speaker 4: Right.
- 46:25Speaker 3: That might play. And there is a level of complacency
- 46:27Speaker 3: that guys do get when, when it's the, um, this guard,
- 46:31Speaker 3: his name was David DeCastro. He plays for the Steelers.
- 46:34Speaker 3: He got broke off paid one year. And I was,
- 46:37Speaker 3: it was 2016. We're at the pro bowl. And he's like,
- 46:40Speaker 3: these are going to be the next, the hardest five
- 46:42Speaker 3: years of my life. And I'm like, why? It was
- 46:44Speaker 3: because that motivation to get paid is now gone.
- 46:47Speaker 2: You know? So where, where, where else is that chip now?
- 46:49Speaker 3: Where Hainsworth, Albert Hainsworth, but there's probably more guys than
- 46:53Speaker 3: not that don't grind.
- 46:54Speaker 7: Right.
- 46:54Speaker 3: There's gotta be of a level of like, you, you
- 46:56Speaker 3: have to have a different why than money. If your
- 46:59Speaker 3: why is just money, you're not going to succeed to
- 47:01Speaker 3: your ultimate potential.
- 47:03Speaker 4: So this is something I do wonder, because you guys
- 47:06Speaker 4: do this professionally, but does the competitive fire kind of
- 47:10Speaker 4: wane once you become a professional understanding? We're all pros here.
- 47:13Speaker 4: You know, like I'm a huge hockey guy, right? So
- 47:16Speaker 4: you're seeing guys play, and even in the fighting, they
- 47:19Speaker 4: don't want to necessarily really hurt each other.
- 47:21Speaker 2: But the games also evolve so much. Right.
- 47:23Speaker 3: That there's not like these guardians of the ice anymore
- 47:26Speaker 3: where it's like, these dudes are here to play three
- 47:27Speaker 3: minutes and beat the shit out of people.
- 47:29Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
- 47:29Speaker 3: That's a different thing. But what, what I think is
- 47:32Speaker 3: that's so different is, um, in football, it's just hard, dude.
- 47:37Speaker 2: It's competitively.
- 47:38Speaker 3: You're either competitive or you're not right. There's guys that
- 47:40Speaker 3: are ultimately super talented and you can come in at
- 47:42Speaker 3: any time. Well, but like, there's guys that are crazy
- 47:44Speaker 3: talented and are just like, good. And they can turn
- 47:46Speaker 3: on and off whenever they want. Um, Julius peppers is
- 47:48Speaker 3: a guy that reminds me of that. Cause even at
- 47:50Speaker 3: his older age playing against him, um, He looked like
- 47:53Speaker 3: he didn't really care, but then all of a sudden
- 47:54Speaker 3: he'd be like, I'm going to get a sack real quick.
- 47:56Speaker 3: And he'd just go fucking light somebody up because he
- 47:57Speaker 3: just was that good.
- 47:59Speaker 4: Sure, yeah.
- 47:59Speaker 3: And there's guys like Michael Jordan where it doesn't matter.
- 48:01Speaker 3: The cash never mattered to him.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Right.
- 48:02Speaker 3: It was really about like, I need to win and
- 48:04Speaker 3: be the best.
- 48:05Speaker 1: That competitive.
- 48:05Speaker 3: Yeah, LeBron, Kobe, those guys. But that's why you see
- 48:08Speaker 3: those guys transcend up to the top.
- 48:10Speaker 2: Right.
- 48:10Speaker 3: It's because they have that competitive edge. They're fueled by
- 48:13Speaker 3: something else other than the success of what other people say.
- 48:16Speaker 3: or what their peers think about them. They're fueled by
- 48:18Speaker 3: whatever's inside of them.
- 48:19Speaker 1: It's not like fame, money, and everything else. I think
- 48:21Speaker 1: it just all depends on the.
- 48:22Speaker 4: Social media, like with comedy, I hear so many comics go, fuck,
- 48:26Speaker 4: I don't want to do this.
- 48:27Speaker 1: You have to post. You almost have to do a
- 48:29Speaker 1: podcast now.
- 48:30Speaker 4: As a comic, right? And a lot of them just
- 48:32Speaker 4: don't want to do it, right? But professional athletes, I mean,
- 48:37Speaker 4: do you feel that you need to do it?
- 48:38Speaker 2: I just love doing it.
- 48:40Speaker 4: Or is it something like you- For this podcast- For
- 48:43Speaker 4: this podcast, if you were just strictly an athlete without
- 48:45Speaker 4: the podcast, would you be active on it?
- 48:46Speaker 1: Or would you just be like, fuck it, I'm good.
- 48:48Speaker 1: I'm on the field.
- 48:49Speaker 4: I don't have to market myself. But there is still
- 48:51Speaker 4: a marketability for everybody.
- 48:53Speaker 2: Yeah, go ahead. Sorry. I was just going to say, yeah,
- 48:57Speaker 2: like if there was no podcast, like I've always enjoyed
- 48:59Speaker 2: like whether it's making people laugh or showing people, you know,
- 49:04Speaker 2: things that go on. Like, I've always enjoyed that stuff. Like,
- 49:06Speaker 2: I've always goofed around and, like, had fun with it.
- 49:08Speaker 2: So I think I would be doing it no matter what.
- 49:11Speaker 2: But also, like, when you are an athlete, like, seeing
- 49:14Speaker 2: it as, like, you know, NFL stands for not for long. Like,
- 49:16Speaker 2: the average career is 2.8 years. There's only a finite amount.
- 49:20Speaker 2: of time that you're going to have to play this sport. Now,
- 49:22Speaker 2: not everybody's going to cash out and be able to
- 49:24Speaker 2: hit like some huge bag. Like you should do well
- 49:26Speaker 2: if you're in the league for several years, like you
- 49:28Speaker 2: should be well enough to give yourself a cushion for
- 49:30Speaker 2: a couple of years.
- 49:31Speaker 4: But yeah.
- 49:32Speaker 1: Eventually you're going to have to find something to do.
- 49:35Speaker 2: And even people who make a lot of money, like
- 49:37Speaker 2: you're still going to have to have some kind of
- 49:38Speaker 2: curiosity whenever you're done playing.
- 49:40Speaker 4: Sure.
- 49:40Speaker 2: So whenever you do have, like, to me, the way
- 49:43Speaker 2: I look at it, when you do have the shield,
- 49:45Speaker 2: you need to use it as much as you can,
- 49:47Speaker 2: even when you're in, in college, especially with NIL now.
- 49:50Speaker 2: But before the NIL stuff, you have a certain amount
- 49:52Speaker 2: of time to shake as many hands as possible, network
- 49:55Speaker 2: as much as you can. I always say your jokes
- 49:57Speaker 2: are funnier, you're better looking, all this stuff while you're playing.
- 50:01Speaker 2: So you need to take advantage of it. And social
- 50:03Speaker 2: media is a way to build your brand. Whether or
- 50:06Speaker 2: not you have a podcast or anything else, you have
- 50:10Speaker 2: these platforms to kind of maximize the window that you're in.
- 50:14Speaker 2: If you're trying to parlay it into something else, because
- 50:17Speaker 2: whenever it's gone and it's behind you, And so you
- 50:20Speaker 2: weren't doing anything. They don't care about you near as much. Yeah,
- 50:22Speaker 2: people don't know what, the league's not going to take
- 50:24Speaker 2: care of you afterwards. People don't care about you as much.
- 50:25Speaker 2: And everybody's going to like any opportunity you try to
- 50:28Speaker 2: create or make, they're going to be like, oh, you know,
- 50:30Speaker 2: he's kind of trying to get back into something now
- 50:32Speaker 2: that the ball's over. Sure, yeah. So that's how I've
- 50:34Speaker 2: always looked at it. I've always enjoyed it. And now
- 50:36Speaker 2: it's like having this stuff gives me even more.
- 50:38Speaker 7: Of a reason.
- 50:39Speaker 1: How great of a time is it for you guys?
- 50:40Speaker 4: I mean, to have this that you built up and
- 50:43Speaker 4: now you know the track set. like when it does
- 50:47Speaker 4: eventually draw to a close, you have this next venture,
- 50:50Speaker 4: which is so fucking awesome because there's a lot of
- 50:52Speaker 4: comic or a lot of professional athletes I know that
- 50:55Speaker 4: deal with the depression that comes with it, with, you know,
- 50:58Speaker 4: the pivot and change of loss of identity, having a
- 51:02Speaker 4: regimented schedule.
- 51:02Speaker 3: That last one you just said has got to be
- 51:04Speaker 3: probably the biggest one.
- 51:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 51:05Speaker 3: That loss of identity. Because when you play sports, especially
- 51:08Speaker 3: you play football and even hockey, you're a big hockey fan,
- 51:10Speaker 3: like you got to commit to that sport fast and quick,
- 51:12Speaker 3: especially in hockey, but your whole life is that. And
- 51:15Speaker 3: then you got guys who put their head down and grind.
- 51:17Speaker 3: Like before this podcast, I didn't even think about anything
- 51:21Speaker 3: other than football.
- 51:22Speaker 4: Right.
- 51:22Speaker 3: And then once this podcast started, there was a level
- 51:25Speaker 3: of pressure in the back of my head that I
- 51:26Speaker 3: didn't even realize I had where I said, when this
- 51:28Speaker 3: thing started going off, it's like, okay, I know I'm
- 51:30Speaker 3: going to be okay after football.
- 51:31Speaker 2: Sure.
- 51:31Speaker 3: I know I'm going to be all right for whether
- 51:33Speaker 3: it's the identity thing, whether it's what am I going
- 51:36Speaker 3: to do?
- 51:36Speaker 2: Right.
- 51:37Speaker 3: Like, well, how am I going to still like scratch
- 51:38Speaker 3: this itch of being competitive? Whether it's like, you know,
- 51:40Speaker 3: numbers going up and all that, or like some sort
- 51:42Speaker 3: of creative outlet.
- 51:44Speaker 4: Right.
- 51:44Speaker 2: That's definitely.
- 51:45Speaker 3: something that I think guys really struggle with when they're done.
- 51:48Speaker 4: Right, right.
- 51:49Speaker 2: Really hard times. Yeah, because it's like the stuff we
- 51:51Speaker 2: talked about with Eric Wood, like finding that next roller coaster.
- 51:53Speaker 2: Like we've lived our entire lives to play a sport,
- 51:57Speaker 2: like our dream, and we're living out our dream. Yeah.
- 51:59Speaker 2: And it's going to come to a close, and when
- 52:00Speaker 2: it does, it's like, you know, if you're lucky enough
- 52:03Speaker 2: to play to 30, you have hopefully the majority of
- 52:06Speaker 2: your life left. Like what are you going to do?
- 52:09Speaker 2: like do or put your energy into. And I think
- 52:11Speaker 2: guys do struggle because we're put on this pedestal for
- 52:13Speaker 2: our entire lives.
- 52:14Speaker 1: Like our years are built around ourselves.
- 52:16Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 52:17Speaker 2: We're like selfish with our time. And like, because money
- 52:20Speaker 2: is like the factor that says, Hey, I make X amount.
- 52:23Speaker 2: this life should be around me because I'm on TV
- 52:25Speaker 2: every weekend.
- 52:26Speaker 4: Sure.
- 52:26Speaker 2: And then when that's over with, it's not like you
- 52:29Speaker 2: realize like, it's pretty fucking awesome.
- 52:31Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 52:31Speaker 3: It's, it's, it's a dope profession.
- 52:32Speaker 2: Oh yeah. It's a dope ass profession.
- 52:34Speaker 3: Anything like college, dude, college, you're like, you go to
- 52:36Speaker 3: a major university in Nebraska or Michigan. There's a silver
- 52:39Speaker 3: spoon the whole time you're at that school.
- 52:41Speaker 1: I went to Kent state.
- 52:42Speaker 2: I know, I know, I know. That's a big deal
- 52:45Speaker 2: right there. 218 out of 214. There you go. I
- 52:46Speaker 2: got it.
- 52:47Speaker 1: I got the fever. You had the fever, baby.
- 52:50Speaker 3: But when you're there, like you're going and you're, you're
- 52:51Speaker 3: working through all this stuff and your hand is held
- 52:53Speaker 3: the whole time.
- 52:53Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 52:54Speaker 3: I was the guy that grinded on that 2.0. I
- 52:56Speaker 3: would do whatever I could just to keep the 2.0.
- 52:57Speaker 3: Grind it on that 2.0. Grind on that 2.0. I
- 53:00Speaker 3: would literally go and teach you, be like, hey, if
- 53:01Speaker 3: you just change these couple of things, you can get
- 53:02Speaker 3: a B instead of a C.
- 53:03Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 53:04Speaker 2: Why?
- 53:04Speaker 3: I'll just get the c it's i'm passing i'm solid
- 53:06Speaker 3: what do you mean as long as i can play
- 53:10Speaker 3: degrees your degree doesn't say c on it it's this
- 53:14Speaker 3: fucking degree that's right you know and so but when
- 53:16Speaker 3: you're there like you have the academic centers you have
- 53:18Speaker 3: the tutors you have all this stuff.
- 53:20Speaker 2: Can i still play on saturday yeah dude that's the
- 53:22Speaker 2: truth allows me to still play like yeah okay.
- 53:25Speaker 3: Good to go right that means i can play like
- 53:28Speaker 3: yes for the stars I see them.
- 53:29Speaker 2: Yeah, they're nice. It's a beautiful view.
- 53:31Speaker 3: But if you're in the stars, you can't see the stars.
- 53:33Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? Fuck that shit.
- 53:34Speaker 1: I want to look at them, bitches.
- 53:36Speaker 3: That's nice.
- 53:37Speaker 1: That's a joke. 22 hours, I saw plenty of stars, dude.
- 53:39Speaker 4: South Dakota?
- 53:40Speaker 2: All of us laughed.
- 53:41Speaker 1: Yeah, you gotta.
- 53:42Speaker 3: It's... Dude, it's... But it's what it is, dude. You're...
- 53:45Speaker 3: And these guys, like, I was lucky enough to go
- 53:47Speaker 3: play in the NFL. Some of these guys finished college,
- 53:49Speaker 3: and they're like... you're not the man anymore.
- 53:51Speaker 2: It's over.
- 53:52Speaker 1: Yeah. You know?
- 53:53Speaker 3: And it's just, it's finding a way to figure out
- 53:56Speaker 3: not being the man for my people know who you are,
- 53:58Speaker 3: how much money, like how do you feel in yourself?
- 54:00Speaker 3: That same confidence you had when.
- 54:02Speaker 2: You were sure.
- 54:03Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 54:04Speaker 3: Or were, you know, all that. And that was, I
- 54:06Speaker 3: think it's going to be a hard thing for a
- 54:07Speaker 3: lot of guys.
- 54:08Speaker 4: Do you find it alarming that there's more coverage on
- 54:10Speaker 4: football than, national politics.
- 54:13Speaker 1: I think it's better.
- 54:15Speaker 3: I think you should have more coverage on football than politics.
- 54:18Speaker 2: As much coverage as possible.
- 54:20Speaker 3: As much coverage as possible.
- 54:22Speaker 2: The crazy politics is fucking insane.
- 54:24Speaker 3: Every time I turn on my Instagram, it's Biden stuttering
- 54:26Speaker 3: about something and a couple years ago is Trump being
- 54:29Speaker 3: racist about something. It's just like too much.
- 54:30Speaker 1: We know what Taylor's algorithm feeds him. Bro, I just
- 54:34Speaker 1: played both sides. Stop the clip.
- 54:39Speaker 3: It's just too much, dude.
- 54:41Speaker 2: Do you watch the news?
- 54:42Speaker 3: Do you go home and you turn on CNN?
- 54:43Speaker 2: I watch the news.
- 54:47Speaker 1: I do watch both. I do watch both.
- 54:49Speaker 4: So I love to get my January 6th update on
- 54:52Speaker 4: one network and then hear the pro-police update on the
- 54:55Speaker 4: other network. But I love... I love... I.
- 55:00Speaker 1: Just as a comic, I really hope Trump runs again. God.
- 55:03Speaker 4: I fucking love it. It's like a Christmas buffet. That
- 55:06Speaker 4: dude does not stop giving. He's fucking fantastic. Material for days, huh?
- 55:10Speaker 4: Oh my God, I fucking love him. I love everything
- 55:13Speaker 4: about him.
- 55:13Speaker 3: You talk to some of them right wing cats, they're like, well,
- 55:15Speaker 3: you know, Fox is actually owned by the liberals too.
- 55:17Speaker 2: It's just, it's crazy.
- 55:18Speaker 3: This whole world we're living in is like Illuminati type shit.
- 55:21Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah.
- 55:22Speaker 4: I mean, it was so funny how like Elon Musk
- 55:24Speaker 4: is like this golden child and then he's like, I.
- 55:26Speaker 2: Think I might.
- 55:27Speaker 4: A Republican is like, this guy's.
- 55:28Speaker 1: A piece of shit, man.
- 55:29Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 55:30Speaker 4: So I just think it's so fascinating, the pendulum swings
- 55:33Speaker 4: that the media has and everything. But just, like, as
- 55:35Speaker 4: a comedian, I'm strictly speaking as a comedian, I fucking
- 55:39Speaker 4: love Trump. I think he is just absolutely fascinating. He
- 55:42Speaker 4: doesn't give a fuck. He just says whatever he wants.
- 55:44Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 55:45Speaker 4: I mean, the fact that.
- 55:46Speaker 3: Clip the part where he says, I fucking love Trump.
- 55:47Speaker 2: That's it.
- 55:48Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah.
- 55:48Speaker 2: That's all we need. That's all we want.
- 55:51Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 55:51Speaker 1: And hearts around me. Yeah.
- 55:54Speaker 2: But, I mean.
- 55:55Speaker 4: You know, the fact that he.
- 55:56Speaker 1: White Twitter's gonna love this episode this week, boys.
- 55:58Speaker 4: Here they go again.
- 56:00Speaker 1: Here they go again.
- 56:04Speaker 4: Like, when he's asked questions like, what do you think
- 56:07Speaker 4: of Heidi Klum? And he's like, well, sadly, she's no
- 56:10Speaker 4: longer a 10. It's like, that's fucking crazy.
- 56:12Speaker 1: Sadly, she's no longer a 10.
- 56:14Speaker 4: Describe a human being as no longer being a 10. Like,
- 56:18Speaker 4: I'm like, keep those coming.
- 56:19Speaker 5: Oh, dude.
- 56:19Speaker 1: Let me write that down. Yeah, politics are fun. Politics are.
- 56:24Speaker 3: Not for me, dude.
- 56:25Speaker 2: Yeah. Not for me.
- 56:26Speaker 3: Not interested in it.
- 56:28Speaker 1: To me, everybody gets way too emotional. There's too much emotional.
- 56:31Speaker 4: Way too much.
- 56:32Speaker 1: Yeah, the emotional involvement. Listen, I'm just trying to do
- 56:35Speaker 1: my daily stuff.
- 56:38Speaker 3: People say if you don't stand for something, you'll fall
- 56:40Speaker 3: for anything. I say, fuck that, dude. I'll not stand
- 56:43Speaker 3: for anything.
- 56:43Speaker 1: It's the best.
- 56:44Speaker 3: Get along with anybody. You know what I'm saying?
- 56:47Speaker 1: I'll fall for it all.
- 56:49Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll fall for it all.
- 56:50Speaker 3: If I'm around somebody that's a Democrat, so am I, dude.
- 56:53Speaker 3: If I'm around a Republican, so I think Jeff Dye
- 56:55Speaker 3: had a bit about that.
- 56:56Speaker 2: Yeah, he did.
- 56:56Speaker 3: That shit was hilarious.
- 56:58Speaker 2: I mean, for real, though, if people tell me something,
- 56:59Speaker 2: I'm pretty gullible. I'll just be like, oh, shit, for real?
- 57:02Speaker 3: This man is the most gullible man of all time, bro.
- 57:05Speaker 1: I want to talk about how the earth is flat, guys.
- 57:07Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree.
- 57:08Speaker 4: I think like, especially as a comic, I like to
- 57:11Speaker 4: peg both of them. I like to shit on both
- 57:12Speaker 4: of them because comics, I think 85% are predominantly leftists.
- 57:18Speaker 4: And so when I tweet stuff that fills the void
- 57:20Speaker 4: of the right, I get shit on, I get blocked.
- 57:23Speaker 1: I'm like, I hit everybody. You guys know me.
- 57:26Speaker 4: And I had a friend, a good friend, and a
- 57:28Speaker 4: very popular comic, Stop Talking Me, because of all the stuff.
- 57:32Speaker 2: What's his name? We need this.
- 57:36Speaker 1: Go ahead. I'll give you his initials.
- 57:40Speaker 2: No, don't do that. Neil Brennan.
- 57:48Speaker 1: Because of the political thing? Yeah, because he's... Look, he's
- 57:52Speaker 1: definitely pretty lefty.
- 57:53Speaker 4: I still love Neil.
- 57:54Speaker 1: I respect him.
- 57:55Speaker 4: I flew to New York to see his show, but
- 57:57Speaker 4: But he said, I just can't talk to you.
- 57:59Speaker 1: I'm sure at some point I'll see him. I'll hug
- 58:01Speaker 1: him or whatever.
- 58:01Speaker 4: But he basically was bent up because, you know, as
- 58:04Speaker 4: co-creator Chappelle's show, I think you definitely have an in
- 58:08Speaker 4: with a certain community of this nation, right?
- 58:11Speaker 1: People that predominantly vote Democrat. I'll just say that. Black people.
- 58:14Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah.
- 58:15Speaker 1: I'll just say that.
- 58:17Speaker 4: So we were having this debate about January 6th and
- 58:21Speaker 4: BLM riots.
- 58:22Speaker 1: And I think rioting across the board is bad.
- 58:24Speaker 4: And I think writing the Capitol is as bad as
- 58:27Speaker 4: writing city streets and destroying businesses.
- 58:30Speaker 1: And he was like, one is justified. One's not.
- 58:33Speaker 4: And we're going on this, you know, pontification and, and
- 58:36Speaker 4: debate about it.
- 58:37Speaker 1: And he just said, I just can't talk to you anymore.
- 58:40Speaker 4: Cause the last election, I think it culminated because the
- 58:43Speaker 4: last election, I couldn't vote for either candidate.
- 58:45Speaker 1: He said, how do you not pick this over that?
- 58:48Speaker 4: And I was like, I just, I, I'm a lot
- 58:51Speaker 4: more apolitical, but I am very political in certain jokes.
- 58:54Speaker 4: You know what I mean? So I'm not emotionally invested
- 58:57Speaker 4: in politics, but he is. And so for me, I
- 59:00Speaker 4: like to kind of jab a bit more.
- 59:02Speaker 2: I know. That's what I hate, like potentially losing homies
- 59:05Speaker 2: over stuff like that. So I would just rather be like,
- 59:08Speaker 2: you know, they'll say what it is.
- 59:10Speaker 1: Somebody will say whatever they want to say.
- 59:11Speaker 2: And I'm like I don't want to be emotionally invested
- 59:14Speaker 2: In this kind of conversation I want to still hang
- 59:16Speaker 2: out Whoever's sitting next to me might feel a certain
- 59:18Speaker 2: way But I just like stay back From fucking any
- 59:24Speaker 2: of those kinds of conversations Because to me it's not
- 59:26Speaker 2: worth all the like Hey we're literally splitting up friendship
- 59:29Speaker 2: wise over something political.
- 59:31Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 59:32Speaker 4: Unfortunately in my industry, I'd say 95% of the people
- 59:36Speaker 4: I work with are not only left, but really left
- 59:41Speaker 4: in the entertainment industry.
- 59:42Speaker 1: It is a bubble.
- 59:43Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 59:44Speaker 4: That, that people with live within this dome of like
- 59:47Speaker 4: super progressive values. And I I'm pretty progressive, but I'm
- 59:51Speaker 4: not like, I'm not like hardened. Like I believe in
- 59:54Speaker 4: smaller government. I believe, you know, certain things I, yeah.
- 59:57Speaker 4: If you want to get an abortion, I think you should,
- 59:58Speaker 4: you know, So I have a perspective, I think, that's
- 1:00:01Speaker 4: kind of like more middle than most people.
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: But my peers are all pretty extreme.
- 1:00:06Speaker 3: Balance is important in life. So why won't you try
- 1:00:09Speaker 3: to stay balanced in your views as well?
- 1:00:10Speaker 4: I love living here because the city's blue like most,
- 1:00:14Speaker 4: the outskirts are red. And so when you go and
- 1:00:16Speaker 4: perform at Zany's, you get this great hybrid of opinions.
- 1:00:19Speaker 1: And so you could tell these fun jokes.
- 1:00:21Speaker 4: And like one of the jokes, I don't do material
- 1:00:24Speaker 4: on this, but, you know, it was a real experience.
- 1:00:26Speaker 4: Literally the first day I move in, the setup is real,
- 1:00:30Speaker 4: the punch is a joke, right? And the setup is,
- 1:00:33Speaker 4: I was signing a package in this brand new home
- 1:00:36Speaker 4: that I, first day I move in, the UPS driver's like,
- 1:00:38Speaker 4: so where'd you move from?
- 1:00:39Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, Los Angeles. He's like, California.
- 1:00:41Speaker 2: I go, yeah.
- 1:00:42Speaker 1: He goes, hey, will you do me a favor?
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: I go, yeah.
- 1:00:44Speaker 4: He goes, you keep your fucking politics in California. And
- 1:00:49Speaker 4: I was like, holy shit, okay. I'm in the South now.
- 1:00:51Speaker 4: And my joke is, don't worry about a thing, sir.
- 1:00:54Speaker 4: The only thing I brought with me is my black
- 1:00:56Speaker 4: Jewish husband. Yeah.
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: That's the joke, right?
- 1:00:59Speaker 2: Yeah.

- 1:01:05Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm pro vibes, man.

- 1:01:12Speaker 2: That's the truth.
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: Just keep the vibes and we'll all like.
- 1:01:15Speaker 3: People are angry about a lot of stuff. I was
- 1:01:17Speaker 3: up in Canada for a month. They're mad about stuff
- 1:01:19Speaker 3: up there too. Trudeau, they hate him.
- 1:01:21Speaker 2: What are they? What's, what's?

- 1:01:29Speaker 1: What's a fuck Trudeau?
- 1:01:30Speaker 2: Oh, that's a part.
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: Trudeau's like their guy. Okay.
- 1:01:33Speaker 3: Like they're, they're a prime minister.
- 1:01:34Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:01:35Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:01:35Speaker 3: And he's like trying to do a whole bunch of stuff.
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: He came in with good ideas.
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: Allegedly.
- 1:01:39Speaker 3: I don't know, but it seems like people are really
- 1:01:41Speaker 3: not about him. Really not about him.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:01:44Speaker 3: And I'm pretty sure, um, who is the guy who
- 1:01:47Speaker 3: ran Cuba for a little bit?
- 1:01:48Speaker 2: What was his name? Castro.
- 1:01:49Speaker 6: Yes.
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: Allegedly. He's, The illegitimate son.
- 1:01:52Speaker 1: That's right, yeah. Those are always like the... Those are
- 1:01:54Speaker 1: fun conspiracies.
- 1:01:55Speaker 2: I love conspiracies, dude.
- 1:01:57Speaker 1: I love to go down a rabbit hole.
- 1:01:59Speaker 3: Now, you start talking about Flat Earth. I'll take a
- 1:02:01Speaker 3: stance on that right now.
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: Come on.
- 1:02:03Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
- 1:02:03Speaker 2: That's just crazy. What about Hollow Earth?
- 1:02:05Speaker 5: Who? What about Hollow Earth?
- 1:02:07Speaker 3: Bro, there's too much weight up on here. We're going
- 1:02:09Speaker 3: to fall through.
- 1:02:10Speaker 2: What do you mean?
- 1:02:11Speaker 3: Hollow Earth?
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: He's just asking.
- 1:02:13Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:02:15Speaker 3: I don't know about that. But like, they talk about...
- 1:02:17Speaker 3: Have you seen Loose Change on YouTube? About nine 11.
- 1:02:21Speaker 2: Oh, Oh yeah. It's a crazy deal.
- 1:02:22Speaker 3: Now you sit there and you know, at the end
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: of it, you're like, maybe.
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: Where's the debris and shanks for all that stuff.
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:02:27Speaker 3: It's just a crazy deal. Then the whole idea of
- 1:02:30Speaker 3: the Illuminati, that whole, that there's a bunch of people
- 1:02:32Speaker 3: running the world.
- 1:02:33Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:02:34Speaker 3: That's fucking wild to me. Lizard people, you know, it
- 1:02:37Speaker 3: just kind of gets crazier and crazier as you go.
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: The one I think is always funny. I love watching
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: ancient aliens.
- 1:02:41Speaker 4: And I always thought it was funny how, like, you know,
- 1:02:44Speaker 4: when you see like the great wall of China, it's
- 1:02:46Speaker 4: like the Chinese built that. And, um, When you see
- 1:02:49Speaker 4: something else, it's like, Stonehenge, the British put this here
- 1:02:53Speaker 4: in a denoted time or whatever. And then you see pyramids.
- 1:02:57Speaker 4: It's like, oh yeah, aliens built those. There's no way
- 1:02:59Speaker 4: these dirty brown people could build that shit. Why do
- 1:03:02Speaker 4: you not believe that that's possible? That's fucking crazy to me.
- 1:03:06Speaker 1: But we can all agree.
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: That aliens are real, right?
- 1:03:09Speaker 3: Is that a fact now, that aliens are a real thing?
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: I think it is.
- 1:03:12Speaker 3: Imagine the first podcast with an alien on.
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: We'll have it. While we blow up.
- 1:03:16Speaker 3: While we're having that, I made a call. I made
- 1:03:18Speaker 3: a call, JP. Yeah, hello?
- 1:03:21Speaker 1: Beep, boop, boop, boop. Aliens are real, right? Look, I've
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: always been a believer in UFOs. Not like Tom DeLonge.
- 1:03:28Speaker 4: I heard like, I don't know if I could, I
- 1:03:30Speaker 4: don't know, you guys edit stuff?
- 1:03:32Speaker 2: Yeah, we edit stuff.
- 1:03:33Speaker 1: I heard like Aaron Rodgers.
- 1:03:35Speaker 4: Alien guy?
- 1:03:36Speaker 5: Is he?
- 1:03:36Speaker 4: Yeah, I was talking to a friend.
- 1:03:39Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers?
- 1:03:39Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers is an alien?
- 1:03:41Speaker 4: No, that he's huge into it. I have a buddy
- 1:03:44Speaker 4: who is a comic that's friends with him and hangs out.
- 1:03:48Speaker 2: Joe Rogan?
- 1:03:51Speaker 4: He's like, no, it's not Rogan. But he was saying
- 1:03:54Speaker 4: he's a big alien guy. I was like, oh, shit.
- 1:03:56Speaker 4: I never would have thought that. The more I read
- 1:03:59Speaker 4: about him, the more I'm like, oh, maybe.
- 1:04:01Speaker 2: He's out there.
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm a huge fan of Aaron Rodgers, though.
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: Same, dude.
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: He's a stud.
- 1:04:05Speaker 2: We were playing.
- 1:04:06Speaker 3: I signed my contract and we played the Packers in
- 1:04:09Speaker 3: a preseason game. And it's halftime.
- 1:04:11Speaker 2: I'm jogging in.
- 1:04:12Speaker 3: The locker room and i someone pats me on the
- 1:04:14Speaker 3: ass and says don't spend all that money in one
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: place and i look and it's rogers oh wow never
- 1:04:18Speaker 3: talked to in my life kind of just john gives
- 1:04:19Speaker 3: me a wink keeps going since then i've been a
- 1:04:20Speaker 3: fan it's awesome man since that moment it's.
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: A cool story i can like picture that it's like
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: a commercial it was cool like the mean joe green
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: commercial the coke commercial that's exactly it.
- 1:04:32Speaker 4: Yeah yeah dude i love when him and tomlin had
- 1:04:35Speaker 4: that moment mike tomlin when he gave Mike Tomlin the
- 1:04:38Speaker 4: wink and Tomlin gave him the head nod.
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: Oh, you're talking about when he was on the field? Yeah.
- 1:04:41Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:04:42Speaker 4: I went to Ben's last game, Big Ben's last game
- 1:04:45Speaker 4: in Pittsburgh. That was a pretty cool thing to witness.
- 1:04:47Speaker 1: He's a stud, dude.
- 1:04:48Speaker 4: Just that city just reveres Ben Roethlisberger and just like
- 1:04:52Speaker 4: the outpouring of emotion and it was really cool to see,
- 1:04:55Speaker 4: especially in this day and age, you guys know more
- 1:04:57Speaker 4: than anybody, where you just move around, right? Team to team,
- 1:05:00Speaker 4: but the Rooney stuck by him and stayed with him
- 1:05:02Speaker 4: and he got to retire a stealer.
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: It was pretty cool.
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: If, uh, If him and A.B.
- 1:05:08Speaker 3: And Le'Veon Bell stayed together, you think they could have
- 1:05:11Speaker 3: won it?
- 1:05:11Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:05:13Speaker 1: They would have had two, huh?
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: That's one of those. Damn.
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: What's your take on it?
- 1:05:18Speaker 4: I heard A.B. wants to come back to Pittsburgh, and
- 1:05:21Speaker 4: I was like, that city has... Well, you see Tomlin
- 1:05:23Speaker 4: on Pivot. 136 bridges, and you burned them all.
- 1:05:25Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:05:26Speaker 3: Tomlin was on Pivot, I believe, and he was like, well, listen,
- 1:05:29Speaker 3: we all know that's not happening. I love A.B., blah, blah. Dude,
- 1:05:33Speaker 3: I was with Tomlin... He was the coach of the
- 1:05:36Speaker 3: AFC team in the Pro Bowl. And AB didn't show
- 1:05:38Speaker 3: up to the game until five minutes before the game
- 1:05:40Speaker 3: started after warm-ups. And Tom was there. He's like, yeah,
- 1:05:43Speaker 3: he does this every time. I don't like taking his money.
- 1:05:44Speaker 3: I just have to sometimes.
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: Ah, Jesus Christ.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: But he's like.
- 1:05:47Speaker 3: But like, Tomlin's that dude that... He's the guy, he's
- 1:05:50Speaker 3: the type of coach that can handle those type of personalities.
- 1:05:53Speaker 3: I love that man. I've never played for him. I
- 1:05:55Speaker 3: spent a week with him, and I would run through
- 1:05:57Speaker 3: a wall for that guy. He seems like an awesome,
- 1:05:59Speaker 3: just an awesome dude.
- 1:06:00Speaker 2: You see the kind of respect he has, too, from
- 1:06:02Speaker 2: all the players who play for him.
- 1:06:04Speaker 4: I like in the media how people, you know, there's
- 1:06:06Speaker 4: always like the offshoot rumor mill, like bloggers or whatever.
- 1:06:10Speaker 4: It's like, he's not going anywhere. Roonies are so, I mean,
- 1:06:13Speaker 4: their track record says, you're our guy, you're our guy.
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: Being in a place like that, I heard it was
- 1:06:17Speaker 3: between him and Ken Wisenhunt to get that job.
- 1:06:19Speaker 4: Back in the day oh wow so but that that
- 1:06:23Speaker 4: that organization just from the top they're so nice like
- 1:06:26Speaker 4: rocky blier i've got to know that guy and their
- 1:06:29Speaker 4: alumni is so ingrained with the with going to the
- 1:06:32Speaker 4: games and he's always taking pictures and stuff with people
- 1:06:34Speaker 4: who's just i don't know yeah about that uh that
- 1:06:37Speaker 4: team that market.
- 1:06:38Speaker 3: Yeah that team's cool and the stadium's cool on the
- 1:06:40Speaker 3: three rivers yeah it's just a cool place fun to
- 1:06:43Speaker 3: play what's that song they put in the fourth quarter
- 1:06:47Speaker 3: yeah dude that shit goes off we should have beat
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: them this year.
- 1:06:52Speaker 4: Damn you knew the Steelers were going to hobble if
- 1:06:57Speaker 4: they were going to get into the playoffs they.
- 1:06:59Speaker 3: Really did hobble their ass in there didn't they hobbled
- 1:07:03Speaker 3: you see the DNs come out the rankings 97 for
- 1:07:06Speaker 3: TJ 96 I think so right My man, he got
- 1:07:13Speaker 3: to be at 99, right?
- 1:07:13Speaker 2: The kid's looking for the exact person who rated him
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: a 96 or 97. He says, I want the exact person.
- 1:07:20Speaker 4: What do you think their QB situation is going to be?
- 1:07:22Speaker 4: Because you draft the kid and then you get Trubisky
- 1:07:25Speaker 4: to come in. Do you think Trubisky plays for two
- 1:07:27Speaker 4: years and kind of takes him under his wing?
- 1:07:29Speaker 2: Trubisky probably plays for, I would guess, a year hoping
- 1:07:33Speaker 2: that the first rounder comes along. He was the first rounder, right?
- 1:07:36Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: You're hoping that the first rounder comes along to where
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: you don't have to play him this year?
- 1:07:39Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a tale as old as time for
- 1:07:40Speaker 3: the NFL. Like, you have a guy who's done it.
- 1:07:42Speaker 2: You know he's.
- 1:07:44Speaker 3: Played well in the league.
- 1:07:44Speaker 1: He can win you games.
- 1:07:45Speaker 3: Then you get a guy that you hope can develop
- 1:07:46Speaker 3: to be the guy guy.
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: And I like Trubisky.
- 1:07:49Speaker 2: He's a good dude.
- 1:07:50Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, great dude.
- 1:07:52Speaker 4: What's that?
- 1:07:52Speaker 2: Almost took my wife. Almost took her. Almost took her.
- 1:07:55Speaker 2: But hey, didn't know.
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: Who's laughing now? Yeah, we had to intercept that immediately.
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: Yeah. Me and Will were at the bar, and Will goes,
- 1:08:04Speaker 2: you see this shit?
- 1:08:05Speaker 1: And he's like, chat, chat, chat.
- 1:08:06Speaker 2: Trubisky, handsome dude, too.
- 1:08:08Speaker 3: I thought, oh, it's over for Will.
- 1:08:09Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:08:09Speaker 2: What happened?
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: What did happen exactly?
- 1:08:11Speaker 2: Because all I can think of is not knowing the
- 1:08:14Speaker 2: Bud Light, because they're talking about the.
- 1:08:16Speaker 3: We were sitting there, we were drinking beers with him,
- 1:08:18Speaker 3: and then the three of us are talking, and then
- 1:08:19Speaker 3: somehow he pivots and turns, and Charo was on the
- 1:08:22Speaker 3: other side of him. Charo's got a very distinct laugh.
- 1:08:26Speaker 3: And so you start hearing that laugh happen, and Will,
- 1:08:29Speaker 3: that's me, Will's like... See this shit going?
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: Because Taylor treats us to the Pro Bowl, and we're
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: around all these Pro Bowls, so I'm like, hey, sweetheart,
- 1:08:38Speaker 2: come on now.
- 1:08:39Speaker 1: Keep your eyes right here. Keep your eyes right here.
- 1:08:41Speaker 2: We're in all these big dogs.
- 1:08:44Speaker 3: You're watching like, damn. She might go down tonight. That'd
- 1:08:47Speaker 3: be tough.
- 1:08:47Speaker 2: We just continued to joke about it. Yeah. You had been.
- 1:08:50Speaker 4: You were with her then?
- 1:08:54Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. We were all together.
- 1:08:56Speaker 1: It was like one of those things that was happening.
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: She obviously laughed I immediately go to Taylor and we
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: just become dudes in the entire situation. We don't let
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: her breathe. And we're just like, oh, he's taking her.
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: He's laughing. She took those punches well.
- 1:09:06Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:09:07Speaker 2: He's kind of standing there kind of like, you know,
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: like feeling. He doesn't know us.
- 1:09:11Speaker 3: We're now telling Charo, hey, you're going to let this
- 1:09:13Speaker 3: man try to take you.
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: In front of him. And you can tell he's like
- 1:09:17Speaker 2: holding his beer with two hands like, what the fuck
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: have I gotten myself into?
- 1:09:20Speaker 1: Just being ourselves.
- 1:09:21Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. That was funny. She had food poisoning that night.
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: She deserved it. She was probably gonna do what we
- 1:09:29Speaker 2: thought she was gonna do, but she got sick. The
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: whole relationship.
- 1:09:33Speaker 1: Remember when she also made me take a photo of
- 1:09:36Speaker 1: her and Patrick Mahomes? That's tough.
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: That was fucking tough. This can't become a roast of Charo.
- 1:09:42Speaker 2: We can't be doing this to her. And another thing.
- 1:09:46Speaker 2: Is it true you guys go on the road and
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: there's just....
- 1:09:52Speaker 4: A mass of fucking tens hanging out at the Hilton,
- 1:09:56Speaker 4: just kind of at the bar.
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: You don't see that in Bible study.
- 1:09:58Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 1:10:01Speaker 1: I don't see that in our Bible studies that we get. No, yeah,
- 1:10:03Speaker 1: usually we're at mass.
- 1:10:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:10:04Speaker 1: Because comics is the total opposite.
- 1:10:06Speaker 2: I have not seen that. I have not seen it.
- 1:10:08Speaker 4: What's that? Comics is the total opposite. Like, you guys,
- 1:10:11Speaker 4: it just, like, it doesn't happen like that with comics.
- 1:10:13Speaker 4: You've got to scratch and claw and everything.
- 1:10:17Speaker 1: Who's the Asian that has a stand-up on Netflix? Really funny.
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: Joe Coy.
- 1:10:20Speaker 1: Joe Coy, yes.
- 1:10:22Speaker 3: Weird way to set up that question.
- 1:10:23Speaker 4: Oh, you mean Ali Wong?
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Ali Wong. Yeah. That's who it is. Because
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: they just got a... She just got a divorce with
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: her husband, right?
- 1:10:29Speaker 1: She got a divorce, yeah. But she had a lot
- 1:10:31Speaker 1: of comedy jokes.
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: Like, what is it?
- 1:10:32Speaker 4: Like.
- 1:10:34Speaker 1: What was she calling it? Like comedic pussy?
- 1:10:35Speaker 4: Well, whatever she called it. If I was the, at
- 1:10:38Speaker 4: the time, the husband watching that, do I need to
- 1:10:42Speaker 4: get a divorce attorney?
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: Cause bro iceberg coming.
- 1:10:44Speaker 2: Holy shit.
- 1:10:45Speaker 4: It was like, she's laying out, laying it all out.
- 1:10:47Speaker 1: Very funny. You should watch her a special on Netflix.
- 1:10:50Speaker 2: It's extremely funny, but my wife and I were watching
- 1:10:52Speaker 2: it laughing our asses off, but it's like, man, I
- 1:10:54Speaker 2: wonder if she like runs these jokes by her husband.
- 1:10:56Speaker 2: And there was an article saying that she did run
- 1:10:58Speaker 2: them all by her husband. Her husband was very supportive.
- 1:11:00Speaker 2: They have like X, Y, and Z. A couple months later,
- 1:11:02Speaker 2: they're getting a fucking divorce, bro. Yeah. God, it's tough.
- 1:11:06Speaker 2: It'd be tough to be married to a comic. She
- 1:11:08Speaker 2: did a stand-up where she's pregnant, and then she came
- 1:11:10Speaker 2: out with that stand-up recently.
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: I think she's pretty funny.
- 1:11:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:11:14Speaker 1: Really, really sweet. Really smart. Very talented, obviously, yeah. Yeah.
- 1:11:19Speaker 2: Really funny. Really funny. I have a question.
- 1:11:21Speaker 3: This is just a random question. Being in the game
- 1:11:23Speaker 3: since 97, you saw the rise and fall of Dane Cook.
- 1:11:26Speaker 3: What was the deal with Dane? Because he seems like
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: he's hated in the comic community.
- 1:11:30Speaker 2: Good question.
- 1:11:31Speaker 4: You probably don't know this, but he had a big
- 1:11:34Speaker 4: thing with me. It became like this kind of like.
- 1:11:37Speaker 3: I saw you take a deep breath when I asked
- 1:11:39Speaker 3: that question and I knew we were in for a
- 1:11:40Speaker 3: nice little piece here.
- 1:11:41Speaker 2: So thank you.
- 1:11:44Speaker 4: There was an incident within the comedy community that kind
- 1:11:47Speaker 4: of became a big thing for a while.
- 1:11:49Speaker 1: So I moved to LA in 2004.
- 1:11:52Speaker 4: Dane is blowing the fuck up, right?
- 1:11:54Speaker 1: I mean, he's... Movies, stand-up, good luck, Chuck.
- 1:11:58Speaker 4: And good-looking and just, like, at this place called Dublin's,
- 1:12:02Speaker 4: which was, like, the hot spot in Hollywood. So Tuesdays,
- 1:12:05Speaker 4: you do that. Like, Britney Spears is there. NSYNC's there.
- 1:12:08Speaker 4: Vince Vaughn's there. Cameron Diaz is there. Like, everybody's coming
- 1:12:11Speaker 4: through to watch comics. So you're just like a comic
- 1:12:14Speaker 4: with no credits and you're going up and you're seeing
- 1:12:16Speaker 4: all these faces and they're like the hottest girls in
- 1:12:19Speaker 4: the world are there and comics are getting laid after.
- 1:12:21Speaker 4: It's the fucking greatest show you want to be a
- 1:12:23Speaker 4: part of and Dane's the centerpiece of it all, right?
- 1:12:26Speaker 1: So I moved there. I'm like this new comic from
- 1:12:29Speaker 1: New York City.
- 1:12:29Speaker 4: And I was doing well here and, you know, the
- 1:12:32Speaker 4: word gets out, oh, this new guy from New York,
- 1:12:34Speaker 4: he's pretty fun, he's cool. So I go, I start
- 1:12:37Speaker 4: doing it and it's going great and then I'm not
- 1:12:40Speaker 4: getting booked on that show anymore.
- 1:12:41Speaker 1: And this guy, Jay Davis booked it.
- 1:12:44Speaker 4: And I called Jay. I'm like, well, what's going on?
- 1:12:45Speaker 4: Is something wrong or whatever? He's like, yeah, yeah. Uh,
- 1:12:48Speaker 4: Dane's got an issue with you. He doesn't want you
- 1:12:50Speaker 4: on the shows anymore. I'm like, oh, okay. He doesn't
- 1:12:53Speaker 4: want me on the shows.
- 1:12:54Speaker 2: And I, and he goes, yeah.
- 1:12:55Speaker 4: And so I, now I'm not working at the laugh
- 1:12:57Speaker 4: factory anymore. And I called the laugh factory. They're like,
- 1:13:00Speaker 4: they're like, yeah, we, we can't book you anymore. I go, oh, okay.
- 1:13:04Speaker 4: So then I'm like, well, I'll just call Dane. I mean,
- 1:13:07Speaker 4: I have his number and we're friendly. We have the
- 1:13:08Speaker 4: same manager, right? So I called Dane up and I go, Hey,
- 1:13:12Speaker 4: I heard you have an issue. Do you have an
- 1:13:13Speaker 4: issue with me? He said, yeah.
- 1:13:14Speaker 1: I said, well, why don't I come over to your place?
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: We could talk about it.
- 1:13:17Speaker 4: He goes, sure.
- 1:13:19Speaker 1: So I got my car. I drove over.
- 1:13:21Speaker 4: This has been discussed on Mark Maron's podcast on my end.
- 1:13:24Speaker 4: It's been discussed on Mark Maron's podcast.
- 1:13:26Speaker 1: On his end.
- 1:13:27Speaker 4: He has a version of reality I don't agree with,
- 1:13:32Speaker 4: but essentially what happened is I went over and I said,
- 1:13:35Speaker 4: what's your issue? And he said, he said, I feel
- 1:13:37Speaker 4: like you're stealing my essence.
- 1:13:39Speaker 1: And I was like, what?
- 1:13:41Speaker 4: And he's like, you're, you're taking my essence with you
- 1:13:43Speaker 4: on stage. I'm like, Dane, I work so hard. I'm
- 1:13:45Speaker 4: not trying to be a shittier version of you. Like
- 1:13:49Speaker 4: I work hard in New York city. I work hard here.
- 1:13:51Speaker 4: I'm not trying to be you. He's like, you're, you're,
- 1:13:54Speaker 4: you're doing like me. And I was like, I don't,
- 1:13:56Speaker 4: I don't see it at all.
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: So I think we're going to agree to disagree.
- 1:14:00Speaker 4: And this is when I was like, this is, this
- 1:14:03Speaker 4: was the moment where I was like, Oh boy, I
- 1:14:05Speaker 4: don't know if I'm talking to somebody who's here.
- 1:14:07Speaker 1: And he said, maybe it's not your time to be here.
- 1:14:10Speaker 4: I was like, what do you mean? He's like, he's like,
- 1:14:13Speaker 4: maybe you shouldn't be in Los Angeles now. I'm like,
- 1:14:15Speaker 4: that's weird. I'm just sitting there like taking it and
- 1:14:18Speaker 4: processing what he's saying. And he told me he goes
- 1:14:21Speaker 4: up to the top of the Hollywood Hills. There's these
- 1:14:22Speaker 4: trails you can hike. And he said, he closes his eyes.
- 1:14:26Speaker 4: He puts his hands out and he goes, this is
- 1:14:28Speaker 4: a true story, right?
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: True. He goes, and he goes, he's doing this for
- 1:14:33Speaker 1: like three seconds.
- 1:14:33Speaker 4: He goes, I give this city my energy and this
- 1:14:36Speaker 4: energy is given to me from the city.
- 1:14:39Speaker 1: And I was like, I'm fucking out.
- 1:14:41Speaker 7: No shit.
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: I'm fucking out, man. This dude's lost his fucking plot. 2004, 2005,
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: somewhere in there.
- 1:14:47Speaker 3: So the pinnacle of Dane.
- 1:14:49Speaker 7: Peak.
- 1:14:50Speaker 1: Peak just before the peak.
- 1:14:52Speaker 6: Oh.
- 1:14:52Speaker 4: So peak before the peak, right? And now I'm like, oh,
- 1:14:55Speaker 4: Jesus Christ. So now I go home and I'm not
- 1:14:59Speaker 4: telling everybody. I tell like two of my buddies. I'm like,
- 1:15:02Speaker 4: I had this fucking weird incident with Dane. It was
- 1:15:04Speaker 4: fucking wild. And so I tell one or two friends.
- 1:15:07Speaker 4: the one friend I told is super tight with, with,
- 1:15:09Speaker 4: with Dane, but also fucking loud mouth.
- 1:15:12Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:15:12Speaker 4: So he tells everybody and now everybody's going, Oh, Steve
- 1:15:15Speaker 4: Burns stealing Dane's essence. Right. So it becomes this fucking thing.
- 1:15:19Speaker 4: And now everywhere I go, it's like, don't take my essence.
- 1:15:22Speaker 4: Cause comics are ribbing me like in a fun way
- 1:15:24Speaker 4: and they don't see it. And I don't see it.
- 1:15:27Speaker 3: And, Are you sure they don't see it?
- 1:15:29Speaker 4: Well, I think what, what, what it was was Dane
- 1:15:31Speaker 4: is so energetic, right.
- 1:15:33Speaker 1: And physical.
- 1:15:34Speaker 4: And I was slightly physical, but not to the degree
- 1:15:36Speaker 4: he was. And I was definitely talking about way different things.
- 1:15:39Speaker 4: He's talking about speak and spell and, you know, all
- 1:15:41Speaker 4: this shit. I'm talking about being Korean and Irish, you know,
- 1:15:44Speaker 4: I mean, two completely different things. And, and so this
- 1:15:47Speaker 4: went on for a while and I was, I was
- 1:15:50Speaker 4: basically blocked from going to clubs, um, literally two days
- 1:15:55Speaker 4: after that conversation, my manager, who was his manager dropped
- 1:15:58Speaker 4: me and I go, is this about Dane Barry?
- 1:16:02Speaker 1: He's like, no, it's got nothing to do with it.
- 1:16:03Speaker 1: I go, fuck you.
- 1:16:04Speaker 4: It's about Dane. Just be man enough to tell me
- 1:16:06Speaker 4: it's about Dane. I don't respect you more. And he,
- 1:16:09Speaker 4: and he didn't. So, so I didn't have manager and
- 1:16:11Speaker 4: I didn't have two of the great places to work
- 1:16:14Speaker 4: when you first moved to LA. So it was a
- 1:16:16Speaker 4: tough place to, to work from, but also it was like,
- 1:16:20Speaker 4: you know, it was like, it, I got a little
- 1:16:23Speaker 4: thick skin from the experience too. It sucks because the
- 1:16:25Speaker 4: biggest comic in the country hates you, right? And he's
- 1:16:30Speaker 4: all over LA and the billboards are up and all
- 1:16:32Speaker 4: everybody's listening to or talking about is Dane Cook and
- 1:16:34Speaker 4: he hates me. And it's like, oh, this fucking sucks.
- 1:16:37Speaker 4: And I just moved here like maybe four months in.
- 1:16:39Speaker 3: So what's your mindset then at that point?
- 1:16:41Speaker 4: My mindset is like, well, fuck it.
- 1:16:42Speaker 1: You basically got canceled.
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: He got canceled by Dane.
- 1:16:45Speaker 4: He got canceled by Dane. But I was like, I'm
- 1:16:47Speaker 4: going to outwork this. I'm going to outwork this moment,
- 1:16:50Speaker 4: this situation, work twice as hard. And I did. And
- 1:16:53Speaker 4: I just, I didn't pay it any mind. And then
- 1:16:55Speaker 4: years later, I was with Vince Vaughn at the, at
- 1:16:58Speaker 4: the improv and Dane was there and Dane came over
- 1:17:02Speaker 4: to say hi and sit down at the table.
- 1:17:04Speaker 1: And I'm just sitting there like fucking seething.
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:17:07Speaker 4: Seething like, are you going to fucking say anything?
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: How long ago was this situation you're talking about right now?
- 1:17:12Speaker 4: This situation, maybe six or seven years ago.
- 1:17:15Speaker 3: So this is a.
- 1:17:16Speaker 2: Lot of time. I had not seen him for a
- 1:17:20Speaker 2: long time.
- 1:17:21Speaker 3: And it was, did you have any more situations with
- 1:17:24Speaker 3: him since that conversation you had.
- 1:17:25Speaker 5: At his house?
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: No.
- 1:17:26Speaker 4: The only thing that happened was it was happening to
- 1:17:29Speaker 4: Chris D'Elia.
- 1:17:30Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:17:30Speaker 1: D'Elia was blowing up now.
- 1:17:32Speaker 4: And then D'Elia and I talked about it and I
- 1:17:34Speaker 4: was like, Chris, it happened to me.
- 1:17:36Speaker 1: It's happening to you.
- 1:17:37Speaker 3: So Dane did the same thing to D'Elia.
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: What Dane did was worse to D'Elia. So this is
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: what Dane would do. Dane Cook did the same kind
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: of thing to D'Elia. But this is what Dane would
- 1:17:46Speaker 1: do to, this is what Dane did to D'Elia.
- 1:17:48Speaker 2: When was this?
- 1:17:49Speaker 4: This maybe five or six years ago, right around the
- 1:17:53Speaker 4: same time that I had this talk.
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: So D'Elia is starting to blow up, right? It's his
- 1:17:57Speaker 1: peak before his peak.
- 1:17:59Speaker 4: And what I mean by that is like, everybody knows
- 1:18:01Speaker 4: about him and now something's going to come out. That's big.
- 1:18:03Speaker 4: Like Dane's first movie was going to come out. So,
- 1:18:06Speaker 4: so D'Elia was about to really blow up. So D'Elia
- 1:18:09Speaker 4: is going around making the rounds at the factory and, and,
- 1:18:12Speaker 4: and the stuff and Dane didn't block him. But what
- 1:18:16Speaker 4: he would do is he would find out on the
- 1:18:18Speaker 4: schedule when, when D'Elia is performing at the improv, he's
- 1:18:21Speaker 4: got the eight 55 at the improv. I'm going to
- 1:18:24Speaker 4: show up at eight 40. I'm going to bump him.
- 1:18:26Speaker 4: And he would bump D'Elia and then do 30 minutes
- 1:18:28Speaker 4: before D'Elia. So D'Elia's just sitting there waiting, and he's like, oh, okay,
- 1:18:32Speaker 4: it's fine, I guess. And then he'd go to the
- 1:18:34Speaker 4: Laugh Factory, D'Elia, for his set at 10 o'clock, and
- 1:18:37Speaker 4: then Dane would show up at 9.50 and bump him
- 1:18:39Speaker 4: again and do 30 minutes.
- 1:18:41Speaker 1: So when you do a bump, for example, like a
- 1:18:43Speaker 1: guest set, you're.
- 1:18:44Speaker 4: Doing maybe 15 minutes, because you don't want to be
- 1:18:47Speaker 4: disrespectful to the show or other comedians. Guys like Chappelle, Rock,
- 1:18:51Speaker 4: you know, like even Chris Rock, he'll come in, he'll
- 1:18:53Speaker 4: be respectful. He'll do 20 minutes, he's out. Maybe 30.
- 1:18:56Speaker 4: Chappelle's the exception because everybody loves him. He had a
- 1:18:58Speaker 4: thing with Pauly Shore, right?
- 1:19:00Speaker 1: Who's that?
- 1:19:01Speaker 2: Chappelle. I don't know if he had a thing.
- 1:19:02Speaker 3: He was on for about 30 minutes, something like you're saying.
- 1:19:06Speaker 3: And then one of the comics said something to him
- 1:19:07Speaker 3: and he like snapped back at him. And I think
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: it was to Pauly Shore.
- 1:19:11Speaker 4: Oh, it might've been.
- 1:19:11Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 1:19:12Speaker 4: But look, Dave's the nicest guy in, in, in like
- 1:19:15Speaker 4: one of the nicest guys in comedy.
- 1:19:16Speaker 1: There's no, I've never heard of friction from Dave.
- 1:19:19Speaker 2: Got you.
- 1:19:19Speaker 4: But anyways, so Dane would do that to D'Elia and
- 1:19:21Speaker 4: then it became, it wasn't coincidental. This was happening repeatedly.
- 1:19:26Speaker 4: And so D'Elia was really getting pissed off. But at
- 1:19:29Speaker 4: the same time, it's like, well, what are you going
- 1:19:30Speaker 4: to do about it?
- 1:19:31Speaker 2: Did Dane and D'Elia have any history like similar to
- 1:19:33Speaker 2: how you were? You were kind of with the crew
- 1:19:34Speaker 2: with Dane. So he was just like, he just kind
- 1:19:36Speaker 2: of acts like me, so I don't want you.
- 1:19:37Speaker 1: He's the new young guy.
- 1:19:39Speaker 4: And so I'm going to show him, you know, Dane's alpha, right?
- 1:19:43Speaker 4: He's going to beat his chest and show you who's boss.
- 1:19:46Speaker 4: And so Dane would do that. And so I just said, D'Elia,
- 1:19:49Speaker 4: you're blown up. Now's your time. Just roll with it.
- 1:19:51Speaker 4: Who gives a fuck? You know, he had his time.
- 1:19:54Speaker 4: Yours is now. Just let it roll off your back.
- 1:19:56Speaker 4: And And Chris handled it his own way. And he was,
- 1:19:59Speaker 4: I think the way Chris did it was first class, right?
- 1:20:01Speaker 4: But with Vince and I, we were there, we were talking,
- 1:20:04Speaker 4: and Dane's just making small talk the whole time. And
- 1:20:07Speaker 4: I'm like, this motherfucker, are you going to say anything
- 1:20:09Speaker 4: to me? And he didn't say anything. And this went
- 1:20:12Speaker 4: on for 15, 20, 25 minutes ago. Dane, we should
- 1:20:14Speaker 4: have a talk. He goes, okay. So we get up,
- 1:20:17Speaker 4: we walk around the corner. I go, is there anything
- 1:20:19Speaker 4: you'd like to say?
- 1:20:20Speaker 1: He goes, I am sorry. I'm sorry about that. I go,
- 1:20:23Speaker 1: thank you.
- 1:20:24Speaker 4: That's it.
- 1:20:24Speaker 2: Now we can sit back down. That was it.
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: That was it.
- 1:20:26Speaker 4: And then we talked for like literally a few more
- 1:20:28Speaker 4: minutes after that, we went down, sat down at the
- 1:20:30Speaker 4: table and he basically just copped to it, you know,
- 1:20:33Speaker 4: really quickly. And he was like, yeah. And this was
- 1:20:38Speaker 4: just before the Delia stuff. I think had I known
- 1:20:40Speaker 4: about the Delia stuff at that time, I may would
- 1:20:42Speaker 4: have said something been like, well, why are you doing this?
- 1:20:44Speaker 4: You know, but I'd seen Dane maybe twice since then.
- 1:20:49Speaker 4: And it's always been cordial. The fact is, I respect
- 1:20:52Speaker 4: what Dane did for sure. Nobody did what, what he
- 1:20:57Speaker 4: basically put the blueprint for what everybody's doing now.
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: He was the first to go on social media.
- 1:21:02Speaker 4: He was the first to go to algorithms, uh, via
- 1:21:05Speaker 4: social media, communicate with his fans and really immerse himself
- 1:21:09Speaker 4: in that thing. And he blew the fuck up. Right.
- 1:21:11Speaker 4: And he's going to Madison Square Garden. That was such
- 1:21:14Speaker 4: a unique thing at the time. Comics didn't do the garden.
- 1:21:17Speaker 4: You had to be really special to do that. And
- 1:21:19Speaker 4: he did it. And now Sebastian's doing eight shows.
- 1:21:22Speaker 1: But Dane was kind of like the first since.
- 1:21:25Speaker 4: Steve Martin or Eddie Murphy to do something like that.
- 1:21:29Speaker 4: Why he's hated or why he's not revered or why
- 1:21:33Speaker 4: he doesn't have the legacy maybe he deserves is because
- 1:21:37Speaker 4: I think that he always handled himself in a way
- 1:21:40Speaker 4: where He was very isolating. You know, he kept to
- 1:21:43Speaker 4: his own bubble. Whereas most comics are pretty cool. You
- 1:21:47Speaker 4: come into the comedy club, it doesn't... Like Kevin Hart
- 1:21:49Speaker 4: came in last night. Could he be a dick? Could
- 1:21:51Speaker 4: he have a security guard with him?
- 1:21:53Speaker 2: Of course.
- 1:21:54Speaker 4: Could he just shuttle off on his own and not
- 1:21:56Speaker 4: want to be bothered with anybody? He's earned that right, right?
- 1:21:59Speaker 4: But he comes in, shakes everybody's hands, glad-handing. We're all comics, right?
- 1:22:03Speaker 4: We get the grind. And it's great to see everybody
- 1:22:05Speaker 4: catch up. Dane's never been that guy. He just does
- 1:22:08Speaker 4: his own thing.
- 1:22:09Speaker 2: He's a cat.
- 1:22:10Speaker 4: So.
- 1:22:11Speaker 1: I think that didn't help. Being called a cat?
- 1:22:14Speaker 2: It didn't help him.
- 1:22:16Speaker 4: It didn't help him.
- 1:22:16Speaker 3: Well, I heard when Joe was talking about Dane, he
- 1:22:19Speaker 3: said that he was stealing jokes as well. He allegedly
- 1:22:23Speaker 3: stole a bit from Louis C.K.
- 1:22:25Speaker 1: This is why I fucking love comedy. This is why
- 1:22:27Speaker 1: I love comedy.
- 1:22:28Speaker 4: Flash forward eight years ago, okay? There's a debate. between
- 1:22:32Speaker 4: Louis C.K. and Dane Cook about who stole the bit about.
- 1:22:35Speaker 1: An itchy asshole.
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: Oh, what? Yeah.
- 1:22:38Speaker 4: I have an itchy asshole. That was the bit that
- 1:22:40Speaker 4: started this all. And then it became a car thing
- 1:22:43Speaker 4: and something else.
- 1:22:44Speaker 3: There was a bit, the bit I heard was Dane
- 1:22:47Speaker 3: couldn't wait to have a son because then he could
- 1:22:49Speaker 3: name his son whatever he wants.
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: That's exciting.
- 1:22:51Speaker 3: And he went with the letter F. Like he's naming
- 1:22:54Speaker 3: his son F. And then I guess Louis C.K. said, well,
- 1:22:57Speaker 3: I did the same bit five years ago and it
- 1:22:58Speaker 3: was with the R. Or maybe it was flips or
- 1:23:01Speaker 3: something like that. And so I think they actually had
- 1:23:03Speaker 3: to sit down.
- 1:23:04Speaker 4: This is me.
- 1:23:04Speaker 3: This is a fan of watching this stuff on YouTube.
- 1:23:08Speaker 3: But I just see things pop up.
- 1:23:09Speaker 2: They're saying fact.
- 1:23:10Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:23:12Speaker 4: But it's two fucking grown millionaires bitching about an itchy
- 1:23:16Speaker 4: asshole joke, which I find hilarious.
- 1:23:18Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:23:18Speaker 4: You guys are out of your fucking mind.
- 1:23:19Speaker 3: It's got to be so hard not to steal jokes, though.
- 1:23:21Speaker 3: Like when you're talking about being a golfer, focusing on
- 1:23:23Speaker 3: your game.
- 1:23:24Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:23:24Speaker 3: When you watch, when you're around people, you take like
- 1:23:27Speaker 3: we're around each other. I'm taking some from you. You're
- 1:23:29Speaker 3: taking some from me. We're interchanging our energies or whatever
- 1:23:31Speaker 3: you want to call it. I go and do something.
- 1:23:33Speaker 3: A PC is coming with me and vice versa. So
- 1:23:35Speaker 3: like to watch comics like Dane Cook or Louis CK
- 1:23:38Speaker 3: and all that. Like, it's got to be hard not
- 1:23:40Speaker 3: to kind of take somebody's joke, even if it's subconsciously,
- 1:23:44Speaker 3: and moving it around a little bit, having it become yours.
- 1:23:46Speaker 4: I think when you're really doing this professionally and you're
- 1:23:49Speaker 4: at the stand or the cellar every night and you're
- 1:23:51Speaker 4: doing these showcase shows, which is like eight comics a show,
- 1:23:54Speaker 4: you know everybody's set. You know what somebody's working on.
- 1:23:57Speaker 4: Even if you're sitting there waiting to go up, you've
- 1:23:59Speaker 4: heard bits, right? So I think you hear things, and
- 1:24:04Speaker 4: especially we're all different. different little pegs and you know
- 1:24:08Speaker 4: mark norman's voice you know robert kelly's voice rich ross's
- 1:24:11Speaker 4: voice or jim norton's voice and so you it's rare
- 1:24:15Speaker 4: you have somebody doing something that's verbatim that and what
- 1:24:19Speaker 4: usually when it does happen comics pretty much squash it
- 1:24:22Speaker 4: pretty quickly i had something with burr years like when
- 1:24:25Speaker 4: i first started he's like he's like yeah god god
- 1:24:28Speaker 4: do it i don't give a shit because he knew
- 1:24:29Speaker 4: his version was better probably yeah you know And everybody
- 1:24:33Speaker 4: has premises that are similar, but your, your take on
- 1:24:36Speaker 4: the premise should be, should be your own. And it
- 1:24:39Speaker 4: will be different than everybody's got a McDonald's joke or whatever,
- 1:24:42Speaker 4: like in the eighties. Right.
- 1:24:43Speaker 1: But it was, it was way different.
- 1:24:44Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:24:45Speaker 3: With, with Dane's, sorry to cut you off, with Dane,
- 1:24:49Speaker 3: when he started to fall off, do you think him
- 1:24:51Speaker 3: playing the cat to every, all the other comedians kind
- 1:24:53Speaker 3: of was part of the demise of him falling off?
- 1:24:56Speaker 3: From the Hollywood standpoint?
- 1:24:58Speaker 4: I think it was probably a culmination of a bunch
- 1:25:00Speaker 4: of different things. I think he got a generation of
- 1:25:04Speaker 4: kids that loved hearing his take on comedy, right? Which
- 1:25:10Speaker 4: at the time, crushed. But if you look back on
- 1:25:12Speaker 4: it now, it's kind of like, I don't know, it's
- 1:25:15Speaker 4: a little juvenile.
- 1:25:16Speaker 2: It's fun.
- 1:25:17Speaker 4: It's really energetic. But there's no real meat on the
- 1:25:20Speaker 4: bone in terms of like, if you transcribed it, right?
- 1:25:23Speaker 4: You'd be like, all right, well, how is this funny?
- 1:25:26Speaker 4: But if you transcribe somebody like Louis, it's like, oh
- 1:25:28Speaker 4: my God, this is fucking hilarious, right? And I think
- 1:25:31Speaker 4: he was an introduction into a deeper well of comedy.
- 1:25:36Speaker 4: And so he was exposing a bunch of young people
- 1:25:39Speaker 4: to better comedians. And I don't mean that as an
- 1:25:43Speaker 4: insult or slight to Dane, because what he did, he
- 1:25:45Speaker 4: did fucking great. I respect Dane. I respect him as
- 1:25:49Speaker 4: a businessman. I respect him as a comic. And I
- 1:25:51Speaker 4: do think he's due for a resurgence. It's up to him, though,
- 1:25:55Speaker 4: to find the material because people outgrew it. Kind of
- 1:25:58Speaker 4: like you outgrow like a boy band, like young girls.
- 1:26:00Speaker 4: It's like, I like Backstreet. And then they get it
- 1:26:02Speaker 4: in the college. It's like, I like, you know, the
- 1:26:04Speaker 4: Beatles now. And I like the intricacies of the melody
- 1:26:06Speaker 4: or whatever. They'll appreciate. I think Dane was somebody that
- 1:26:09Speaker 4: was good for when you were in a high school
- 1:26:11Speaker 4: or college.
- 1:26:11Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:26:12Speaker 4: Then you get older. It's like you want somebody with
- 1:26:14Speaker 4: a little bit more on the plate.
- 1:26:17Speaker 2: Maybe the best question you've had. Not that like actually
- 1:26:21Speaker 2: best question, but the question that opened up an insane
- 1:26:24Speaker 2: rabbit hole. I had no idea that was going to
- 1:26:26Speaker 2: happen with that.
- 1:26:27Speaker 4: I mean, it's been years. And look, if I saw Dane,
- 1:26:30Speaker 4: I'd go up to, I have no animosity. I don't,
- 1:26:32Speaker 4: I don't carry that negativity.
- 1:26:33Speaker 2: That's very big of you.
- 1:26:34Speaker 4: So far. It's so long ago. I personally, he actually,
- 1:26:39Speaker 4: this is the last time he talked to me. He said, Hey,
- 1:26:41Speaker 4: I'm doing a documentary. I go about what? He goes, me.
- 1:26:45Speaker 1: I go, fuck. Of course.
- 1:26:47Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:26:47Speaker 4: And of course you are. So, uh, He goes, would
- 1:26:50Speaker 4: you be interviewed about that moment in time? I go, look,
- 1:26:53Speaker 4: I'm more than happy to sit down with you, Dane.
- 1:26:56Speaker 4: I'd love to sit down with you. I'm going to
- 1:26:57Speaker 4: tell my side of the story for sure. I just,
- 1:27:00Speaker 4: after having worked on film on my own, I'd like
- 1:27:03Speaker 4: to know the narrative, the final narrative. you and I
- 1:27:06Speaker 4: have differing opinions on what actually happened that day. So
- 1:27:10Speaker 4: I'd want my version to be my version, you know?
- 1:27:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:27:13Speaker 4: I haven't heard back from him, but I totally said,
- 1:27:15Speaker 4: give me the paper. I'll sign it right now.
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: Right.
- 1:27:17Speaker 1: A hundred percent.
- 1:27:17Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:27:18Speaker 3: I haven't heard back from him, but yeah.
- 1:27:19Speaker 1: I mean, that was us. We were the, we were
- 1:27:21Speaker 1: the high school and college kids that loved him.
- 1:27:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:27:23Speaker 3: He was big.
- 1:27:23Speaker 2: He was big for us.
- 1:27:24Speaker 3: I was super into him. middle school and the first
- 1:27:27Speaker 3: couple years of high school.
- 1:27:28Speaker 2: For me, it was high school. You're a year older
- 1:27:30Speaker 2: than me.
- 1:27:30Speaker 1: But who do you guys revere? Maybe it was 8th grade,
- 1:27:32Speaker 1: maybe 9th grade.
- 1:27:34Speaker 5: For me, it was even in middle school and you're,
- 1:27:36Speaker 5: you know, you're a little older.
- 1:27:38Speaker 3: Wait, you were in middle school?
- 1:27:39Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:27:40Speaker 2: Because 2004, I was 13.
- 1:27:41Speaker 5: I have something on my Apple still that was iTunes.
- 1:27:44Speaker 5: It was like the BK Lounge.
- 1:27:46Speaker 3: I was in a retaliation last week.
- 1:27:48Speaker 5: Him saying that he has like a job and he
- 1:27:50Speaker 5: doesn't want to sound like a loser working at Burger King.
- 1:27:52Speaker 5: He's like, I work at the BK Lounge.
- 1:27:54Speaker 2: Right. Yeah.
- 1:27:55Speaker 1: Kool-Aid man.
- 1:27:56Speaker 2: Yeah. He had those pretty big hitters.
- 1:27:58Speaker 3: More of the like 2008 to maybe 10 for me.
- 1:28:04Speaker 3: He had.
- 1:28:06Speaker 1: Three specials.
- 1:28:09Speaker 2: He had three specials.
- 1:28:09Speaker 3: He was Harmful to Swallow, which was the one that
- 1:28:12Speaker 3: put him on the map. Retaliation came out in 2004,
- 1:28:14Speaker 3: which was his big one. And then his final one
- 1:28:17Speaker 3: was called Vicious Circle. No, there was one that he
- 1:28:19Speaker 3: released on Showtime recently. that came out a few years ago.
- 1:28:23Speaker 3: It sounds like they got... Listen, I am... By the way,
- 1:28:26Speaker 3: I'm talking, you can totally tell I'm a huge fan
- 1:28:27Speaker 3: of Dane Cook.
- 1:28:28Speaker 2: I love to stand up.
- 1:28:28Speaker 3: He was a huge reason why I started listening to comedy.
- 1:28:33Speaker 3: I would love to. I'll reach out to him. It
- 1:28:37Speaker 3: sounds like it'd be iffy if you reached out to him.
- 1:28:39Speaker 3: Maybe we should have somebody else do it.
- 1:28:40Speaker 4: That.
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: It would be awesome.
- 1:28:44Speaker 4: If he came on, he's starting to get back out
- 1:28:46Speaker 4: there and starting to do podcasts again.
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: And I think he's trying to get back out there.
- 1:28:50Speaker 4: And from what I hear and what I'm seeing, I
- 1:28:53Speaker 4: think he's putting forth a genuine effort to make inroads.
- 1:28:56Speaker 1: Like, um, Like, look, I'm not speaking at a school.
- 1:29:00Speaker 4: I mean, Louis CK, when I was starting off, I
- 1:29:03Speaker 4: was the young guy at the table with a bunch
- 1:29:05Speaker 4: of young comics. He was kind of like cunty to us.
- 1:29:07Speaker 4: He wouldn't, he was just above it all. And then
- 1:29:10Speaker 4: the shit hit the fan with him. And now he's
- 1:29:12Speaker 4: really cordial and outgoing to all those younger comics pedestal.
- 1:29:16Speaker 4: And so I was like, well, I'm glad he's, he's
- 1:29:19Speaker 4: so talented. I would have loved to have sat down
- 1:29:21Speaker 4: and talk to him. I remember being in DC, but
- 1:29:24Speaker 4: the seller all the time running into him saying, Hey, Louis. And,
- 1:29:27Speaker 4: You know, he's at the cellar all the time filming
- 1:29:29Speaker 4: the show. And where I'm in D.C., walk along the
- 1:29:31Speaker 4: mall and he's running. I'm like, hey, what's up, man?
- 1:29:33Speaker 4: And he didn't even, he just gave me a head pump.
- 1:29:35Speaker 4: And I was like, fuck that dude, man. But I'm
- 1:29:38Speaker 4: glad to see that he kind of recalibrated. And he
- 1:29:41Speaker 4: is cool. There's always a time to do that. I'd
- 1:29:43Speaker 4: love to run into him at some point. Seems like
- 1:29:45Speaker 4: him and Shane are buddies. They did like a three-hour,
- 1:29:47Speaker 4: three-episode thing on presidents.
- 1:29:49Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:29:49Speaker 4: They just released a really, from what I hear, and
- 1:29:52Speaker 4: the trailer looked intriguing, but I love Joe List. Joe List,
- 1:29:55Speaker 4: if you like comics on Twitter, he's one of the best.
- 1:29:57Speaker 4: He's like a great joke writer for Twitter, but he's
- 1:29:59Speaker 4: also a great comic. He and Louis just did a
- 1:30:02Speaker 4: film called Fourth of July that they independently financed and produced,
- 1:30:06Speaker 4: and Louis directed it. And so, obviously, Louis kind of
- 1:30:10Speaker 4: tainted goods in the industry right now, so he's just
- 1:30:13Speaker 4: doing it on his own.
- 1:30:14Speaker 1: So they're doing like this barnyard tour.
- 1:30:16Speaker 4: Kind of going to different cities and screening it and
- 1:30:19Speaker 4: and doing q and a's and shows around it and
- 1:30:22Speaker 4: they're making their money back which is fucking great and
- 1:30:24Speaker 4: again another example we're talking about earlier of comics taking
- 1:30:27Speaker 4: the industry on on their own much like you guys
- 1:30:30Speaker 4: creating your own entertainment hubs you know yeah so i'm
- 1:30:34Speaker 4: glad to see louis doing that i think dane's trying
- 1:30:35Speaker 4: to do that now.
- 1:30:36Speaker 3: Yeah it'd be nice to see i i saw some
- 1:30:38Speaker 3: of dane's stuff before it's very similar energy but he's
- 1:30:41Speaker 3: older so the energy is not as vibrant and it's
- 1:30:43Speaker 3: not as like and he's also like overwhelming.
- 1:30:46Speaker 2: He's like Bigger.
- 1:30:47Speaker 1: He looks different now.
- 1:30:48Speaker 3: Well, I think I got a lot of work done.
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: He got a lot of work done.
- 1:30:51Speaker 2: Yeah. I didn't want to say it.
- 1:30:52Speaker 3: I'd love to have him.
- 1:30:53Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:30:53Speaker 3: I mean, but, uh, Louis CK, the shit hitting the
- 1:30:56Speaker 3: fan with him. Have you heard Pete Davidson's, uh, bit
- 1:30:58Speaker 3: on him?
- 1:30:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:30:59Speaker 1: When he was at SNL.
- 1:31:00Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:31:00Speaker 3: And it kind of goes in line of what you
- 1:31:01Speaker 3: were saying, how he was.
- 1:31:02Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:31:03Speaker 1: Have you heard the bit?
- 1:31:04Speaker 2: He's talking about.
- 1:31:05Speaker 3: How Pete, he was, he was high. Is Pete doing
- 1:31:08Speaker 3: the standup? Pete Davidson's doing the standup. He's high right
- 1:31:10Speaker 3: after SNL and Louis CK hosted SNL. Pete's walking past
- 1:31:14Speaker 3: him and a group of people. go in the elevator,
- 1:31:16Speaker 3: and Louis C.K.
- 1:31:17Speaker 2: Is like, hey, man, smoking all that weed, you're going
- 1:31:19Speaker 2: to smoke your life away, you piece of shit, like,
- 1:31:21Speaker 2: going at him. And he's like, that didn't happen. I'm
- 1:31:24Speaker 2: too high.
- 1:31:24Speaker 1: There's no way that happened.
- 1:31:25Speaker 3: Well, the next day, Lorne Michaels, who started SNL, calls
- 1:31:28Speaker 3: him and brings him into the office. And he's like, hey, like,
- 1:31:31Speaker 3: people used to do coke here, so, like, I don't
- 1:31:33Speaker 3: care if you smoke weed, just, like, kind of don't
- 1:31:34Speaker 3: do it as much.
- 1:31:35Speaker 7: You know?
- 1:31:36Speaker 3: And then I guess like, then the whole bit ends
- 1:31:39Speaker 3: up with him saying, so one day when I woke
- 1:31:41Speaker 3: up and I heard he was jerking off on people,
- 1:31:43Speaker 3: I was ecstatic. Like super happy about it. But it
- 1:31:47Speaker 3: just seems like, I don't know. It seems like that's
- 1:31:50Speaker 3: a thing that he had going on. It's cool to
- 1:31:52Speaker 3: see or hear that he's like kind of being cool
- 1:31:54Speaker 3: with everybody now.
- 1:31:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:31:55Speaker 4: And I think like if you really take like a
- 1:31:57Speaker 4: macro look at like the world of standup comedy after
- 1:32:00Speaker 4: being immersed in it, like a bird's eye perspective, It's
- 1:32:03Speaker 4: like you're seeing this fucking band of misfits, like a
- 1:32:06Speaker 4: bunch of wounded birds. We're not you guys, right? You
- 1:32:09Speaker 4: guys are fucking cool. You're getting laid in high school.
- 1:32:11Speaker 1: I mean, we can be some wounded in some areas.
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: Come on now.
- 1:32:14Speaker 4: But you know what I mean, though?
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: We got demons.
- 1:32:15Speaker 4: There's a psychological reason these nerds are going up and
- 1:32:21Speaker 4: telling jokes. Public speaking is ranked worse.
- 1:32:26Speaker 1: Than death for most people.
- 1:32:28Speaker 2: Like 70% of people would rather die.
- 1:32:30Speaker 1: Yeah, it's wild.
- 1:32:31Speaker 4: Which is crazy. And comics glom onto that. So when you,
- 1:32:34Speaker 4: when you hear about like things with Dane or somebody
- 1:32:38Speaker 4: like with drug issues or somebody like going on a
- 1:32:41Speaker 4: violent spree or whatever in a comedy community, my first
- 1:32:45Speaker 4: thought is always empathy and sympathy because you know, these
- 1:32:49Speaker 4: are not like, a lot of them are just not
- 1:32:51Speaker 4: the most mentally stable people. And there's a reason they
- 1:32:54Speaker 4: do stand up at the end of the day. Like,
- 1:32:56Speaker 4: I feel fortunate. My folks hug me and I feel
- 1:32:58Speaker 4: like pretty normal. But some of the folks I'm even
- 1:33:01Speaker 4: friends with, I'm like, holy shit, like I'm here for
- 1:33:03Speaker 4: you if you need anything.
- 1:33:04Speaker 2: It's tough.
- 1:33:05Speaker 4: And I'm sure in your industry, it's got to be
- 1:33:07Speaker 4: incredibly hard because you're like our minds are our conduit
- 1:33:12Speaker 4: to the audience. But you guys, you're physically that's the
- 1:33:15Speaker 4: conduit to it all.
- 1:33:17Speaker 2: Yes, and there's definitely stuff. A lot of guys come
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: from a lot of broken situations.
- 1:33:21Speaker 3: The cool thing about football is there's guys that grew
- 1:33:23Speaker 3: up at the top, big income households, and there's guys
- 1:33:28Speaker 3: that grew up food stamps and everything in between, too.
- 1:33:31Speaker 3: There's levels of adversity in the NFL.
- 1:33:34Speaker 1: That guys have.
- 1:33:34Speaker 4: It's a conundrum to take, like you said, how many
- 1:33:36Speaker 4: 30 for 30s are on this, broke the whole dock
- 1:33:40Speaker 4: on it, but you're taking an 18-year-old kid and multi-millionaire Like,
- 1:33:45Speaker 4: most comics hit when we're, like, in our 30s or
- 1:33:47Speaker 4: 40s after you put, like... It's like a slow burn.
- 1:33:50Speaker 4: 10,000 hours in Malcolm Gladwell into this. So you kind
- 1:33:53Speaker 4: of have a little more maturity, but that I can't imagine.
- 1:33:56Speaker 4: I mean, being so immature. That's why, like, when social
- 1:33:59Speaker 4: media scours a young kid for a tweet he did
- 1:34:01Speaker 4: when he was 14, it's like, what the fuck is
- 1:34:03Speaker 4: wrong with you?
- 1:34:04Speaker 1: Will's got that coming.
- 1:34:05Speaker 4: That's crazy to me.
- 1:34:06Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: My Daniel Tosh tweets. Oh, dude, you got any Daniel
- 1:34:10Speaker 2: Tosh stories? Why isn't he, like, the greatest? I think he...
- 1:34:15Speaker 2: Of all time. But he does have some, he is
- 1:34:17Speaker 2: talented as hell. Great dude.
- 1:34:20Speaker 1: But I think he, he does his own thing.
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: He just, he's very private. Yeah.
- 1:34:26Speaker 1: Very private. Keeps to himself.
- 1:34:28Speaker 2: It's super nice. Super.
- 1:34:29Speaker 4: I think he's, I think he's a really, it's crazy.
- 1:34:32Speaker 4: He had one of the biggest shows of all time.
- 1:34:34Speaker 4: And then just kind of like, and I don't hear
- 1:34:37Speaker 4: much about him anymore.
- 1:34:38Speaker 2: I don't even know if he works anymore.
- 1:34:40Speaker 3: It kind of just happens to people, right? Like, we
- 1:34:42Speaker 3: keep bringing it up. It happened to Dane.
- 1:34:44Speaker 2: Like, he just all of a sudden vanished. Yeah. Well,
- 1:34:46Speaker 2: maybe they get their bag and then they're just.
- 1:34:48Speaker 5: Yeah, is there a wrong thing? Like, some people are
- 1:34:50Speaker 5: just like, get their nut and just don't want to
- 1:34:52Speaker 5: do anything.
- 1:34:53Speaker 2: Not do anything, but don't want to be in anything.
- 1:34:55Speaker 1: They don't want to be in the spotlight.
- 1:34:56Speaker 3: Well, McAfee talks about it in his show. Pat McAfee says, hey,
- 1:34:59Speaker 3: don't get it twisted. In 10 years, you won't hear
- 1:35:01Speaker 3: from me again.
- 1:35:01Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be gone. I don't know about that, though.
- 1:35:04Speaker 1: I don't take it for that.
- 1:35:05Speaker 4: That's why I love, that's why I respect Chappelle and
- 1:35:10Speaker 4: Chris Rock so much. And like David Spade, there's comics
- 1:35:13Speaker 4: that are working. They're there every night fucking grinding with
- 1:35:18Speaker 4: the notepad going up and telling jokes.
- 1:35:20Speaker 1: It's like, You have a mansion in Jersey, Chris Rock.
- 1:35:22Speaker 1: Why are you here? Because it's in Jersey. He's got
- 1:35:26Speaker 1: to get a shirt back.
- 1:35:27Speaker 2: That's Will Smith.
- 1:35:29Speaker 4: But he's getting in his car, driving out to the cellar,
- 1:35:33Speaker 4: taking it on the chin with some new jokes, and
- 1:35:35Speaker 4: still doing it. It's like, I really, really respect guys
- 1:35:38Speaker 4: like that.
- 1:35:40Speaker 1: Or maybe they're just not satisfied.
- 1:35:41Speaker 3: A goldmine, Chris Rock and Will Smith. That had to
- 1:35:44Speaker 3: be a comedic goldmine right there for all y'all.
- 1:35:46Speaker 4: Every comic had a take on that, but I think
- 1:35:49Speaker 4: I have a different... I think Chris Rock took a
- 1:35:53Speaker 4: slap for Ricky Gervais. I think Ricky Gervais doing those
- 1:35:59Speaker 4: Golden Globes, he shit on those people.
- 1:36:04Speaker 1: Shit on them.
- 1:36:04Speaker 4: He wasn't doing it like Carson did it, or Bob
- 1:36:08Speaker 4: Hope did it, or Steve Martin did it, where there's
- 1:36:10Speaker 4: like a communal.
- 1:36:12Speaker 4: Like before those hosts, they were performers as revered as
- 1:36:16Speaker 4: the people they were celebrating or honoring, right?
- 1:36:19Speaker 2: Or nominating.
- 1:36:20Speaker 4: And now you got an outsider who did a show
- 1:36:22Speaker 4: in England that nobody's heard of. And he's coming in,
- 1:36:25Speaker 4: he's being fucking mean. I love Ricky Gervais. I think
- 1:36:29Speaker 4: he's fucking hilarious. But would I personally make fun of
- 1:36:33Speaker 4: Colin Farrell to his face about substance abuse issues? I
- 1:36:38Speaker 4: wouldn't do that, right? I don't negate a comic ever.
- 1:36:42Speaker 4: You do whatever you want. I'm always for freedom of speech, 100%
- 1:36:45Speaker 4: with comics. But I think he went over the line
- 1:36:49Speaker 4: multiple times against a community that was sitting there just
- 1:36:52Speaker 4: fucking taking it.
- 1:36:53Speaker 1: They couldn't say anything back. And now you got.
- 1:36:56Speaker 4: That moved the yard marker down the line in terms
- 1:36:59Speaker 4: of comedy. Every time you move it down and that
- 1:37:01Speaker 4: becomes a social norm, it's like, oh, now the floodgates
- 1:37:04Speaker 4: go to there. So we can go there now. And
- 1:37:06Speaker 4: so you got Chris Rock going there to a minimal
- 1:37:09Speaker 4: degree and then him just going up and fucking cracking him.
- 1:37:13Speaker 4: Do you think it's fucking nuts?
- 1:37:14Speaker 2: That shit was hilarious. Fucking nuts.
- 1:37:16Speaker 3: That was a wild and a wild, the whole string
- 1:37:19Speaker 3: of events, how Will Smith is smiling and laughing.
- 1:37:21Speaker 2: And then he sees, he looks at his wife and
- 1:37:23Speaker 2: he's like, everyone's trying to figure out it. Was that stage?
- 1:37:27Speaker 2: Was that a fake? Was that, was he in on it?
- 1:37:29Speaker 2: So is Will Smith done?
- 1:37:30Speaker 7: You think?
- 1:37:31Speaker 1: No, I don't think so.
- 1:37:32Speaker 4: I think, I think it's one of those things where
- 1:37:35Speaker 4: the entertainment cycle moves so quick. Now I think he'll
- 1:37:38Speaker 4: be back. I think he's going to lay low for
- 1:37:39Speaker 4: a bit. Um, But my thought was always, can you
- 1:37:42Speaker 4: imagine working on the film G.I. Jane, and then 25
- 1:37:45Speaker 4: years later, finally your film is mentioned at the Oscars?
- 1:37:47Speaker 4: He's like, now this is how it's going to fucking end.
- 1:37:50Speaker 2: No doubt.
- 1:37:50Speaker 4: But I love Chris Rock, and I think you saw
- 1:37:53Speaker 4: every comic band up behind him. I think he's like
- 1:37:57Speaker 4: one of my top five of all time, for sure.
- 1:38:00Speaker 4: And I can't wait to hear. Eventually he'll address it,
- 1:38:03Speaker 4: and it'll be fucking brilliant.
- 1:38:04Speaker 2: I know it will. We could obviously talk to you
- 1:38:07Speaker 2: all day long, but I definitely want you, like one
- 1:38:10Speaker 2: of your boys is Vince Vaughn. Yeah.
- 1:38:12Speaker 4: Tell him, kid.
- 1:38:13Speaker 2: We need some Vince Vaughn. So you think Vince Vaughn
- 1:38:15Speaker 2: would come on the bus?
- 1:38:17Speaker 1: I'll definitely talk to him. I honestly think he'd probably
- 1:38:21Speaker 1: be game.
- 1:38:22Speaker 2: Really?
- 1:38:22Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:38:23Speaker 4: I mean, I had a great experience. Look, I really
- 1:38:26Speaker 4: enjoy your company. And then getting to meet you and
- 1:38:28Speaker 4: getting to know you, I really enjoy you guys. I
- 1:38:30Speaker 4: think again about the vibes he's about the vibes and
- 1:38:33Speaker 4: I think if I told him hey man it's a
- 1:38:35Speaker 4: fucking great thing you'd.
- 1:38:36Speaker 2: Say hey they're trying to vibes they're pro vibes yeah
- 1:38:39Speaker 2: I'm sure we're money out here but like he one
- 1:38:43Speaker 2: of his best pals are our good buddy Derek West
- 1:38:45Speaker 2: one national title of Colorado.
- 1:38:47Speaker 4: And through Derek, Vince is the biggest football fan. He
- 1:38:52Speaker 4: loves football. He loves college football. His dog's name is Buckeye.
- 1:38:56Speaker 1: But if I were to give you a... Disgusting stuff. Oh, sorry.
- 1:39:01Speaker 2: Make for a great pod.
- 1:39:03Speaker 4: A good story. I'll tell you. I grew up... Swingers
- 1:39:07Speaker 4: came out when I was in college. And I loved
- 1:39:11Speaker 4: the NHL when they were playing Sega NHL. And he's
- 1:39:14Speaker 4: making him bleed and all that stuff. And it's fucking hilarious.
- 1:39:16Speaker 4: It's one of my favorite scenes, right? So Vince moves
- 1:39:19Speaker 4: back to Chicago after living in Los Angeles. And I
- 1:39:22Speaker 4: was touring so much, I would go and just stay
- 1:39:23Speaker 4: with him at the Paul Mollet building in Chicago, which
- 1:39:26Speaker 4: is the old Playboy offices.
- 1:39:28Speaker 1: So it's the top two floors. It's a fucking beautiful building.
- 1:39:31Speaker 2: And he has this....
- 1:39:33Speaker 4: I was visiting him so much. He's like, why don't
- 1:39:35Speaker 4: you just move to Chicago? I was like, yeah, I'll
- 1:39:36Speaker 4: just move to Chicago. So my wife and I moved
- 1:39:38Speaker 4: to Chicago.
- 1:39:39Speaker 3: What did your wife think when you came home? Hey, honey,
- 1:39:42Speaker 3: go to Chicago.
- 1:39:42Speaker 1: We're going to Chicago.
- 1:39:43Speaker 4: She was fine with it. So we stayed with Vince
- 1:39:45Speaker 4: for like two months until we find a place. And
- 1:39:48Speaker 4: Vince has this gorgeous movie theater. And our wives would
- 1:39:52Speaker 4: go to bed and we would just stay up till
- 1:39:54Speaker 4: four or five in the.
- 1:39:55Speaker 1: Morning playing NHL. on the PlayStation.
- 1:39:58Speaker 2: I love that.
- 1:39:59Speaker 1: So here's, here's the thing.
- 1:40:01Speaker 4: When you're watching that movie, it's fucking hilarious, right? When
- 1:40:05Speaker 4: you're losing NHL to Vince Vaughn and he's talking, he's
- 1:40:09Speaker 4: saying all those things, but like clever lines, it makes
- 1:40:13Speaker 4: you want to jump out the fucking window.
- 1:40:14Speaker 1: You're like, shut the fuck up. And he's like, no,
- 1:40:16Speaker 1: I'll teach you seriously.
- 1:40:17Speaker 4: I'll, after this game, I'll teach you how to do
- 1:40:19Speaker 4: the things I'm doing because it looks like you need
- 1:40:21Speaker 4: a teacher.
- 1:40:22Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:40:22Speaker 4: And just like shitty things like that. And you're, when
- 1:40:25Speaker 4: you're on the outside, I'm sure it's fucking hilarious, but
- 1:40:27Speaker 4: when you're getting pounded, it's the fucking worst.
- 1:40:30Speaker 1: He's, he's, he's fun, but competitive.
- 1:40:34Speaker 4: And in Chicago, there's this thing called whirly ball. You
- 1:40:36Speaker 4: guys ever heard of it? It's the, it's the best.
- 1:40:38Speaker 4: It's this magnetized basketball court. You get in bumper cars
- 1:40:42Speaker 4: and you get like lacrosse sticks and you, you pass
- 1:40:45Speaker 4: a ball to each other and the net is vertical.
- 1:40:49Speaker 4: So you got to hit this netting and it bounces
- 1:40:51Speaker 4: in the net and it comes out and it releases.
- 1:40:53Speaker 4: It sounds off the score, right? There's a bar there.
- 1:40:55Speaker 4: You're drinking. It's the funnest thing you could ever do.
- 1:40:58Speaker 4: So I got married. We went there the day after
- 1:41:01Speaker 4: my wedding. Me, Vince, all our buddies, a lot of
- 1:41:04Speaker 4: the Blackhawks were playing at 11 o'clock. They were playing
- 1:41:09Speaker 4: at midnight and my team beat Vince's team. So Vince
- 1:41:13Speaker 4: is like, we got to go again. Best out of seven.
- 1:41:14Speaker 4: We got to go again. It's fucking now it's like
- 1:41:18Speaker 4: three in the morning.
- 1:41:18Speaker 2: Is it right here?
- 1:41:19Speaker 4: Right there.
- 1:41:19Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:41:20Speaker 4: That's it.
- 1:41:20Speaker 3: And you have to hit that black thing?
- 1:41:22Speaker 1: You have to hit that black thing. And you're going around.
- 1:41:24Speaker 4: And you can wind up.
- 1:41:26Speaker 1: You can crank somebody. It's fucking fun.
- 1:41:29Speaker 4: Okay? So I win two best out of sevens on
- 1:41:32Speaker 4: my team. He's not happy. It's now 345 in the morning.
- 1:41:38Speaker 4: He's like, we got to go another best of seven.
- 1:41:40Speaker 4: I go, dude, my fucking honeymoon, I'm leaving at six.
- 1:41:44Speaker 2: It's 345.
- 1:41:45Speaker 1: I got to go. He's like, best out of three.
- 1:41:47Speaker 1: I go, oh, fine. Best out of three. We do
- 1:41:49Speaker 1: best out of three.
- 1:41:51Speaker 4: I got home. My wife is on the couch like,
- 1:41:54Speaker 4: what the fuck is wrong with you? I'm like, what?
- 1:41:56Speaker 4: She's like, we're going to be late for the fucking fight.
- 1:41:59Speaker 4: So I almost missed my honeymoon flight because Vince Vaughn
- 1:42:03Speaker 4: wanted to play best out of three in Whirlyball.
- 1:42:07Speaker 2: That game looks unbelievable.
- 1:42:08Speaker 1: That game does look unreal.
- 1:42:09Speaker 3: We got to do a Boston Spring Tour in Northwestern
- 1:42:12Speaker 3: just so we can go do that.
- 1:42:14Speaker 5: Oh, yeah.
- 1:42:15Speaker 4: I'll tell you, he's... Oh, that is rad.
- 1:42:17Speaker 2: You know who played this?
- 1:42:18Speaker 4: Garrett.
- 1:42:19Speaker 2: Yeah, that boy would be out there fucking He's back
- 1:42:23Speaker 2: there twirling that shit He's back there moving his foot
- 1:42:25Speaker 2: We would take those rackets and we'd throw them at
- 1:42:27Speaker 2: each other Like if you had the ball I would
- 1:42:30Speaker 2: fucking zing it and I'd try to hit your hand
- 1:42:32Speaker 2: I mean guys were getting cut and bruised and shit My.
- 1:42:35Speaker 3: One friend cut his nipple How big is the ball?
- 1:42:38Speaker 3: Is it like a lacrosse ball?
- 1:42:40Speaker 1: It's like a wiffle ball almost I feel like they.
- 1:42:42Speaker 5: Have like the actual paddles and the ball is like
- 1:42:45Speaker 5: a beach toy.
- 1:42:46Speaker 4: Yeah, it's called trackball is what it's called Okay Um,
- 1:42:50Speaker 4: but it's, it's so fucking fun. It's backing it up, reversing,
- 1:42:53Speaker 4: moving forward. You can get a little speed. And you
- 1:42:55Speaker 4: can drill somebody.
- 1:42:57Speaker 3: Rip around, huh?
- 1:42:58Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:42:58Speaker 3: How fast those little carts go?
- 1:42:59Speaker 4: Those little cars, dude.
- 1:42:59Speaker 3: That's what you're talking about?
- 1:43:00Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:43:00Speaker 1: You don't want the ball.
- 1:43:02Speaker 2: The ball, no.
- 1:43:03Speaker 4: The ball, you can sing.
- 1:43:04Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:43:04Speaker 4: You get hit with that ball. It's kind of like
- 1:43:06Speaker 4: a hardened little plastic ball.
- 1:43:08Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:43:08Speaker 1: It'll ding you up. It'll sting. Yeah, it'll sting, yeah.
- 1:43:11Speaker 2: Whoa, that was tough. Oh, hey. Well, that was a
- 1:43:13Speaker 2: little much. We're friends. Yeah. Fuck. Yeah, that'd be sick, dude,
- 1:43:16Speaker 2: if you came on. I'll tell you what.
- 1:43:17Speaker 3: That'd be fucking pretty all the time.
- 1:43:19Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll talk to him next time. Is Vince,
- 1:43:21Speaker 2: does he ever do stand-up comedy?
- 1:43:23Speaker 1: No, but I'll tell you this.
- 1:43:25Speaker 4: If I have one friend that could go up on
- 1:43:27Speaker 4: stage right now and just do it, it's him. His
- 1:43:30Speaker 4: SNL monologue, he didn't do a monologue. He did crowd work.
- 1:43:33Speaker 7: Really?
- 1:43:33Speaker 4: It was, I think, maybe two or three years ago
- 1:43:35Speaker 4: he did it. And I said, what are you going
- 1:43:37Speaker 4: to do for the monologue? He's like, I don't know.
- 1:43:39Speaker 3: So when you do SNL, they don't help you write
- 1:43:41Speaker 3: your monologue.
- 1:43:42Speaker 2: You do your own monologue. They do.
- 1:43:43Speaker 4: But I think Vince said, I'll just wing it. And
- 1:43:46Speaker 4: you see him and he's talking to the crowd. He's
- 1:43:49Speaker 4: the fastest human being ever. I've ever seen in terms
- 1:43:52Speaker 4: of matriculating and getting to a punchline so quick. And
- 1:43:56Speaker 4: not only that, but hilarious. The other day I was
- 1:44:00Speaker 4: talking to him and I go, I told him something.
- 1:44:03Speaker 4: He goes, he goes, Oh my God, if I was
- 1:44:05Speaker 4: a lawnmower, you just pulled my cord. And I was like,
- 1:44:08Speaker 4: I w I got to write that. Like, you know
- 1:44:10Speaker 4: how long that would take me to come up with that. Great.
- 1:44:12Speaker 4: And he's just being sarcastic and shitty, but he is
- 1:44:16Speaker 4: the funnest, best friend a guy could ever want. Like, literally,
- 1:44:21Speaker 4: I say that all the time to my wife, and
- 1:44:23Speaker 4: that's the way I describe him. The way you see
- 1:44:25Speaker 4: him in the films, that's him. Like, when you're watching
- 1:44:28Speaker 4: old school. That's what you hope, too. Because you say,
- 1:44:31Speaker 4: don't meet your heroes.
- 1:44:32Speaker 3: I'm not saying I have a mural of Vince in
- 1:44:34Speaker 3: my room, but I'm saying when you watch the movies,
- 1:44:36Speaker 3: you sit there and there's a smile on your face
- 1:44:38Speaker 3: the entire time. Meet him, and him be like, you know,
- 1:44:42Speaker 3: treat you off. What a dagger in the heart that
- 1:44:44Speaker 3: would be. What an absolute dagger.
- 1:44:46Speaker 2: No, no, he's for sure. I want to hang out
- 1:44:48Speaker 2: with him so bad. Predators-Blackhawks game?
- 1:44:51Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:44:52Speaker 3: And I was with a guy who is one of
- 1:44:54Speaker 3: the people at CA, and he's like, do you want
- 1:44:56Speaker 3: to meet him? And there was a whole bunch of
- 1:44:57Speaker 3: people clamoring to get to him, and I was like,
- 1:44:59Speaker 3: I just don't think he wants that right now. But
- 1:45:01Speaker 3: I admire him from afar.
- 1:45:02Speaker 4: The minute he found out, if you guys play football,
- 1:45:04Speaker 4: you're off to the races. I mean, he loves football.
- 1:45:07Speaker 2: He's an Ohio State fan.
- 1:45:10Speaker 4: I thought he was Notre Dame He's a big Notre
- 1:45:13Speaker 4: Dame fan He goes to I think at least That's
- 1:45:15Speaker 4: an odd combination.
- 1:45:16Speaker 2: Yeah Great Dueling out Notre Dame I know you want
- 1:45:20Speaker 2: to throw your sword I do want to throw my
- 1:45:22Speaker 2: sword I know what you're talking about And I want
- 1:45:24Speaker 2: to He's sitting there explaining it I'm sitting here just
- 1:45:25Speaker 2: thinking I know Taylor wants to Just kind of.
- 1:45:28Speaker 4: We want to feel the waters Rudy That's why he's
- 1:45:31Speaker 4: in Notre Dame Rudy And then Ohio State Which is.
- 1:45:33Speaker 2: An overrated sports movie Right? A little bit Yeah it
- 1:45:37Speaker 2: is a little bit Really?
- 1:45:39Speaker 4: Really? Yeah.
- 1:45:39Speaker 2: That's tough. Why do you think so? It's just, you know.
- 1:45:44Speaker 3: I mean, I also think, like, Remember the Titans is
- 1:45:45Speaker 3: a touch overrated. But here I go, and I'll finish
- 1:45:48Speaker 3: when I'm talking, you can go too. I think Remember
- 1:45:51Speaker 3: the Titans is overrated because it's so, everyone thinks it's
- 1:45:53Speaker 3: the greatest.
- 1:45:54Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:45:54Speaker 3: And it's a really good movie, but it's been so
- 1:45:56Speaker 3: overplayed now.
- 1:45:56Speaker 2: It's like, we can move on.
- 1:45:58Speaker 3: I'm not a hater.
- 1:45:58Speaker 1: I've never seen a ratio as bad as that tweet.
- 1:46:02Speaker 9: But what is ratio?
- 1:46:04Speaker 3: We'll figure it out. When we do Tear Talk, which
- 1:46:06Speaker 3: we're doing today, which is going to be Best Condiments. No,
- 1:46:08Speaker 3: it's Best Sitcoms.
- 1:46:09Speaker 2: We went over this. Literally went over this.
- 1:46:11Speaker 1: We were doing Best Condiments.
- 1:46:12Speaker 3: And just like that, Jack's fired.
- 1:46:14Speaker 2: Okay.
- 1:46:15Speaker 1: It'd be great for Steve to do Best Sitcoms since
- 1:46:17Speaker 1: he's a comedian.
- 1:46:18Speaker 3: Instead of Condiments.
- 1:46:20Speaker 2: That was JP. Shout out to the boy.
- 1:46:22Speaker 3: Okay, so.
- 1:46:22Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:46:23Speaker 3: What was I saying?
- 1:46:24Speaker 4: Will, help me out.
- 1:46:25Speaker 2: This motherfucker, Rocky.
- 1:46:26Speaker 3: So do you, our tier talks where we like say like,
- 1:46:28Speaker 3: this is the best, whatever. This is the second best.
- 1:46:30Speaker 1: This is the third best.
- 1:46:30Speaker 2: Our opinions.
- 1:46:31Speaker 4: Sure.
- 1:46:32Speaker 3: We usually pick one for each. Will said the entire
- 1:46:35Speaker 3: Rocky series is his tier one for inspirational sports or
- 1:46:39Speaker 3: best sports movies.
- 1:46:40Speaker 4: All of them?
- 1:46:40Speaker 3: All of them.
- 1:46:41Speaker 2: This is crazy. It was seven movies ago. Those ones
- 1:46:43Speaker 2: are my tier one.
- 1:46:44Speaker 1: One through three. You are here to police, Willian.
- 1:46:50Speaker 3: That shit, you let him just ride, didn't you?
- 1:46:52Speaker 2: And he put two football movies in, too.
- 1:46:55Speaker 1: He put Friday Night Lights, which.
- 1:46:58Speaker 3: Is a worse version than Remember the Titans. You know,
- 1:47:01Speaker 3: I'm just, and I talked to Will on the phone.
- 1:47:03Speaker 3: He's not going to, I'm not sure he'll give in,
- 1:47:05Speaker 3: but he did say if he redid it, he'd probably
- 1:47:07Speaker 3: think about taking Friday Night Lights out.
- 1:47:09Speaker 2: Yeah, I would think about switching Friday Night Lights, but
- 1:47:10Speaker 2: that doesn't mean I don't love the movie. It's a
- 1:47:12Speaker 2: great movie.
- 1:47:12Speaker 3: A little overrated, but yeah.
- 1:47:13Speaker 1: I think it's a great movie.
- 1:47:14Speaker 3: Football movies in general, besides Varsity Blues.
- 1:47:17Speaker 5: Radio.
- 1:47:18Speaker 1: Varsity Blues, awesome movie. Varsity Blues.
- 1:47:23Speaker 3: Hey, JP looking back like, well, what's so funny? I'd
- 1:47:31Speaker 3: rather have Mystery Alaska than Miracle. Miracle is unbelievable, but
- 1:47:35Speaker 3: I love Mystery Alaska. The small town vibes. The rangers
- 1:47:39Speaker 3: come in to play them and they tell who's the
- 1:47:42Speaker 3: singer that does the national anthem.
- 1:47:46Speaker 2: For what?
- 1:47:47Speaker 3: For Mystery Alaska And they're playing outside In like the
- 1:47:50Speaker 3: dead of winter In Alaska And he They tell him
- 1:47:53Speaker 3: Hey sing the National Anthem Real slow And all the
- 1:47:55Speaker 3: Rangers guys Are fucking freezing And all the dudes From
- 1:47:58Speaker 3: Alaska Are just totally fine Yeah It's a fantastic movie
- 1:48:01Speaker 3: The scene when they're in the.
- 1:48:02Speaker 2: Hang on though We can agree that Rocky is.
- 1:48:06Speaker 1: A Phenomenal Phenomenal film Have you seen Rocky?
- 1:48:09Speaker 2: I've seen one You never saw it?
- 1:48:12Speaker 3: And I saw the Like the last one I think
- 1:48:14Speaker 3: what I was most I know I'm I think mid
- 1:48:17Speaker 3: or whatever the fuck the kids are saying nowadays when
- 1:48:19Speaker 3: it comes to that.
- 1:48:19Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:48:20Speaker 2: I was most nervous about is you struck me for
- 1:48:22Speaker 2: somebody who hadn't seen them all so.
- 1:48:27Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if you've seen them all or not.
- 1:48:29Speaker 3: You shouldn't have seven movies or three movies in your
- 1:48:32Speaker 3: tier one.
- 1:48:33Speaker 2: Oh, absolutely.
- 1:48:35Speaker 3: If Rocky 1 through 3 is your tier one, then
- 1:48:38Speaker 3: Rocky 1, Rocky 2, Rocky 3, or however you want
- 1:48:40Speaker 3: to order them.
- 1:48:40Speaker 1: Rocky 1, Rocky 3, Rocky 2.
- 1:48:42Speaker 3: Okay, then that would be your tiers.
- 1:48:44Speaker 2: Yeah, I understand.
- 1:48:45Speaker 3: And if that's the case, you're getting.
- 1:48:47Speaker 2: Fucking dummied then. I understand the game. If I'm actually
- 1:48:49Speaker 2: doing the tier talk, it's Rocky 1, Remember the Titans,
- 1:48:52Speaker 2: Friday Night Lights.
- 1:48:52Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:48:54Speaker 2: But you could switch out a Friday Night Lights like,
- 1:48:56Speaker 2: you know, You can think of a fun one like Waterboy,
- 1:48:59Speaker 2: Happy Gilmore.
- 1:49:00Speaker 3: Remember the Titans is like a movie about inequality that
- 1:49:02Speaker 3: involves football.
- 1:49:03Speaker 1: Dude, Remember the Titans is a fucking awesome movie.
- 1:49:05Speaker 3: It's a good film.
- 1:49:06Speaker 2: It single-handedly cured racism.
- 1:49:08Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure it's... Don't. Hey, we got to keep
- 1:49:16Speaker 3: this thing going.
- 1:49:16Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying? I should have canceled. We
- 1:49:19Speaker 2: got to keep this thing going.
- 1:49:21Speaker 1: But dude, Remember the Titans is an awesome movie.
- 1:49:23Speaker 2: It really is. Like, there's a reason it is overplayed.
- 1:49:26Speaker 2: It is extremely popular. It's because it's one of the
- 1:49:28Speaker 2: best sports movies of all time.
- 1:49:31Speaker 3: I didn't get my butterflies going like Goon.
- 1:49:32Speaker 2: Go watch Goon.
- 1:49:33Speaker 1: Dude, Goon is not the most inspirational sports movie of mine.
- 1:49:36Speaker 3: I already explained why it is.
- 1:49:37Speaker 2: I got goosebumps.
- 1:49:38Speaker 3: And also, the thing about Tear Talk is it's literally.
- 1:49:40Speaker 1: Opinions, dude.
- 1:49:41Speaker 3: Whether how right or wrong they are, we have opinions.
- 1:49:44Speaker 2: I get that, but to legitimately say it is my most...
- 1:49:48Speaker 2: I think here's... what you should say. It is my
- 1:49:50Speaker 2: most inspiring sports movie. I don't think it is the
- 1:49:53Speaker 2: most inspiring sports movie. Like if you're actually trying to
- 1:49:55Speaker 2: put it in there and list, because then you have
- 1:49:57Speaker 2: to take into consideration everybody else.
- 1:50:01Speaker 1: Rocky is, is the most realistic.
- 1:50:04Speaker 4: I think in terms of like, he establishes from the
- 1:50:07Speaker 4: get-go you're in a shitty situation he's boxing in a
- 1:50:11Speaker 4: in a church right.
- 1:50:12Speaker 2: Right and he's an enforcer for a mob taking money
- 1:50:15Speaker 2: by the way lying with a big heart yeah with
- 1:50:18Speaker 2: a big heart too which is nice just like i
- 1:50:19Speaker 2: don't know if i can go the distance that's all
- 1:50:21Speaker 2: he wants to know if he and then you set
- 1:50:23Speaker 2: that theme it's it's it's proved at the end but
- 1:50:25Speaker 2: then you have a film done in the 70s where
- 1:50:28Speaker 2: the mobster comes up to rocky sitting in the car.
- 1:50:30Speaker 4: Going hey yo rock I heard you're dating a retard.
- 1:50:33Speaker 4: Why don't you take her to the zoo? I heard
- 1:50:35Speaker 4: retards like Zeus. It's like, what the fuck?
- 1:50:38Speaker 2: Like, that is crazy.
- 1:50:39Speaker 4: Like with the optics of today, looking back on that,
- 1:50:42Speaker 4: like even Slapshot, again, filmed in the seventies, Paul Newman
- 1:50:46Speaker 4: walks into that dive bar in Johnson, Pennsylvania. And the
- 1:50:50Speaker 4: guy who's the grizzled veteran pitcher in major league is
- 1:50:53Speaker 4: sitting at the bar and chain smoking, watching a soap opera,
- 1:50:57Speaker 4: and on the soap opera, the woman is breaking up
- 1:50:59Speaker 4: with the guy, and Paul Newman just taps him on
- 1:51:01Speaker 4: the shoulder, and he's just staring at the screen and goes,
- 1:51:03Speaker 4: what a fucking cunt. It's like, that is fucking insane. Like,
- 1:51:07Speaker 4: that was in a movie. Like, looking back on that shit,
- 1:51:12Speaker 4: you could never do that today.
- 1:51:13Speaker 1: So funny.
- 1:51:14Speaker 2: God.
- 1:51:15Speaker 1: I'll get canceled for that, because.
- 1:51:16Speaker 2: I'm quoting the movie.
- 1:51:17Speaker 3: When you said R, you said R, and then you
- 1:51:20Speaker 3: said it twice.
- 1:51:21Speaker 2: You're gonna go to the top. Yeah. You said R.
- 1:51:23Speaker 3: What if you quoted a movie? Who's the, who's the,
- 1:51:25Speaker 3: who's the comedian? Uh, I think I said Ralphie May.
- 1:51:27Speaker 1: Is that the dude?
- 1:51:28Speaker 3: He's a white dude, right?
- 1:51:29Speaker 2: Big, heavy white guy. Yeah.
- 1:51:31Speaker 4: He was my favorite black female comic. Black female comic.
- 1:51:34Speaker 1: Cause he had this high pitched voice.
- 1:51:36Speaker 3: Dude, he, I was listening to some of his stuff
- 1:51:38Speaker 3: and he says the N word and he says, what he,
- 1:51:41Speaker 3: I'm not going to start into what you were saying.
- 1:51:44Speaker 3: His shit is so like shock value.
- 1:51:47Speaker 2: Funny.
- 1:51:48Speaker 3: He has this whole thing about going to black movie theaters,
- 1:51:49Speaker 3: how he loves black movie theaters and, and he loves
- 1:51:52Speaker 3: watching the previews and he just loves listening to black
- 1:51:54Speaker 3: people in the back like the black girls like oh
- 1:51:56Speaker 3: i'm not ever going norclin you can't catch me going
- 1:51:58Speaker 3: norclin out there with them shocks like i mean he
- 1:52:00Speaker 3: had a whole funny deal about that it is so funny.
- 1:52:03Speaker 4: He's got a whole bit about comic uh lived here
- 1:52:05Speaker 4: in nashville he was one of the first i knew
- 1:52:07Speaker 4: that kind of moved here uh him and madigan um
- 1:52:10Speaker 4: obviously nate's from here or whatever but um but yeah
- 1:52:13Speaker 4: great comic why is everybody moving here I moved here
- 1:52:17Speaker 4: because I got sick. I got sick of the politics
- 1:52:20Speaker 4: and I got sick of California taking advantage of it's
- 1:52:24Speaker 4: the people that live there.
- 1:52:25Speaker 1: You know, big Trump guy, you're.
- 1:52:26Speaker 2: Paying MAGA MAGA.
- 1:52:32Speaker 4: No, I just, it got, it's hyper politicized over there
- 1:52:35Speaker 4: and you're going up into the Hollywood Hills off of
- 1:52:37Speaker 4: Gower off the one-on-one and it's tent city. People like
- 1:52:41Speaker 4: movie stars live up in the Hills and you're going
- 1:52:43Speaker 4: up Gower and They set up wash stations and all
- 1:52:46Speaker 4: this other stuff. And it's just like, the city's not,
- 1:52:48Speaker 4: Hollywood's not the city I moved to when I first
- 1:52:51Speaker 4: moved there.
- 1:52:52Speaker 1: It's awful.
- 1:52:52Speaker 4: And then, especially when you're raising kids there, my property
- 1:52:55Speaker 4: tax is what I pay. Now I can't send my
- 1:52:58Speaker 4: kids to private, to public school because they're shit. So
- 1:53:01Speaker 4: I got to go to private school and to get to, to,
- 1:53:03Speaker 4: into the private school, you got to sign up for
- 1:53:05Speaker 4: a lottery and you hope you get in there. And
- 1:53:07Speaker 4: then if you get in, you're paying college tuition for
- 1:53:10Speaker 4: your kids to fucking crayons in an app.
- 1:53:12Speaker 1: It's fucking crazy.
- 1:53:13Speaker 2: That's a tough deal.
- 1:53:15Speaker 4: L.A.
- 1:53:16Speaker 1: Seems like a tough area.
- 1:53:16Speaker 2: Now, San Diego... Beautiful. I miss San Diego. There's a
- 1:53:19Speaker 2: lot of beautiful parts of California.
- 1:53:20Speaker 1: There is, yeah. Carmel? Shall we do a tier talk?
- 1:53:24Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:53:25Speaker 3: I'm trying to think if there's anything else. What's your
- 1:53:27Speaker 3: vibe on SNL? Like, how the dynamics change? Because I
- 1:53:30Speaker 3: feel like SNL used to be... And this is me
- 1:53:32Speaker 3: shooting from the hip. I really don't know what I'm
- 1:53:33Speaker 3: talking about. But SNL seemed like a place for, like, comedians. That's...
- 1:53:37Speaker 3: If you want to get in the show business, that's
- 1:53:38Speaker 3: where you go. That's where you started.
- 1:53:40Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:53:40Speaker 3: Huge launching pad. Like Will Ferrell, Farley, Rock, all those
- 1:53:44Speaker 3: guys were ripping in there.
- 1:53:46Speaker 2: Belushi.
- 1:53:47Speaker 3: And now with all these things we've talked about, how
- 1:53:49Speaker 3: everyone has a podcast, there's YouTube, there's so many different
- 1:53:51Speaker 3: ways to get yourself out there. Has that taken away
- 1:53:53Speaker 3: from SNL a little bit?
- 1:53:54Speaker 1: You think?
- 1:53:55Speaker 4: I think SNL will always be like a beacon of
- 1:53:58Speaker 4: communal entertainment, right? There's so few things that are communal
- 1:54:01Speaker 4: these days. Sports, thank God, communal. news, a big election
- 1:54:06Speaker 4: is communal SNL still is somewhat relevant in being communal
- 1:54:09Speaker 4: where people will share the clips and stuff. I think
- 1:54:12Speaker 4: my big issue with SNL is that they went from
- 1:54:15Speaker 4: character driven to premise driven. And so characters were the sketches.
- 1:54:21Speaker 4: Now it's all based on a funny premise. Wouldn't it
- 1:54:23Speaker 4: be funny if this happened in this situation? Now the
- 1:54:26Speaker 4: characters got truncated into weekend update. So Jost is just
- 1:54:31Speaker 4: handing the ball to a, to a character. where the
- 1:54:34Speaker 4: characters before the whole sketch was built around the character.
- 1:54:37Speaker 4: I miss that. I miss church lady. I miss all
- 1:54:40Speaker 4: those things.
- 1:54:41Speaker 3: I was the, the B gangsters or whatever they were
- 1:54:43Speaker 3: from a, it was Belushi.
- 1:54:45Speaker 2: And was it Chevy chase was in that? I don't know. Yeah.
- 1:54:50Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:54:50Speaker 4: Belushi was the B yeah. But all the great characters now.
- 1:54:53Speaker 2: And they were just bringing people back over and over
- 1:54:54Speaker 2: and over again. The pepper boy, all that stuff.
- 1:54:56Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 1:54:57Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:54:57Speaker 3: That was awesome.
- 1:54:58Speaker 1: I mean, target lady with Kristen wig.
- 1:55:00Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:55:01Speaker 1: I fucking love those sketches and the Californians, right. Californians.
- 1:55:05Speaker 1: I don't know if they, that sketch would exist today.
- 1:55:07Speaker 4: Cause they'd be, you know, doing a sidebar and update,
- 1:55:10Speaker 4: which that to me is when the show pivoted.
- 1:55:13Speaker 1: Cause for decades it was character driven.
- 1:55:16Speaker 4: And so now even like thinking like Shane was on SNL,
- 1:55:19Speaker 4: it's like, well, what character would he be doing? Like,
- 1:55:22Speaker 4: he doesn't even do impressions. Like what would he be doing?
- 1:55:24Speaker 4: But again, that's why, because it's premise driven.
- 1:55:26Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:55:27Speaker 3: What about MADtv? Was there ever.
- 1:55:32Speaker 2: I loved.
- 1:55:32Speaker 1: I think Will Sasso is one of the most talented.
- 1:55:35Speaker 2: Will Sasso is so fucking funny.
- 1:55:37Speaker 1: I didn't even know Will Sasso from MADtv.
- 1:55:38Speaker 2: I knew Will Sasso from fucking Vine on Instagram.
- 1:55:42Speaker 3: Dude, on MADtv, he's so funny.
- 1:55:44Speaker 2: What was it?
- 1:55:44Speaker 3: Michael McDonald?
- 1:55:45Speaker 2: Was that his name?
- 1:55:46Speaker 4: Who did Stuart?
- 1:55:47Speaker 3: Bro, that Stuart bit was so funny.
- 1:55:49Speaker 1: Oh, great.
- 1:55:50Speaker 4: Bobby Lee... Who I'm friends, I'm not speaking out of
- 1:55:52Speaker 4: school when I tell you this story. He's fucking crazy.
- 1:55:54Speaker 3: That's a zip line, that's a zip line phrase for you.
- 1:55:56Speaker 3: You love, I'm not.
- 1:55:57Speaker 2: Speaking out of school, dude. You know what I'm saying?
- 1:55:59Speaker 3: That, you know, Woody, the Woody doll you pull the line,
- 1:56:01Speaker 3: there's a snake in my boot. Yours would be, I'm
- 1:56:03Speaker 3: not speaking out of school here, you know?
- 1:56:05Speaker 4: Well, Bobby and I have a very complicated relationship. It's
- 1:56:09Speaker 4: a love and hate relationship, but I love him, right?
- 1:56:12Speaker 1: Is there like a competition going on?
- 1:56:13Speaker 2: No, not from, no, not at all. Yeah.
- 1:56:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 1:56:16Speaker 2: We won't say it.
- 1:56:16Speaker 4: Yeah. I toured with Ken Jeong, Bobby Lee, and Kevin Shea.
- 1:56:22Speaker 4: We did this Kim's a Comedy tour. We're in San Francisco.
- 1:56:25Speaker 4: Kim's a Comedy.
- 1:56:26Speaker 2: God damn it, dude.
- 1:56:27Speaker 4: Ken Jeong and Bobby Lee had a rivalry, okay? So
- 1:56:33Speaker 4: Bobby was always the big dog, right? He's on Mad TV.
- 1:56:35Speaker 4: Everybody knows him. I just had a Comedy Central thing.
- 1:56:38Speaker 4: Ken had just been like three lines on The Office,
- 1:56:42Speaker 4: and Ken's trying to break in, right?
- 1:56:43Speaker 1: So now we're doing Kim's a Comedy. We're touring.
- 1:56:46Speaker 4: Ken's in The Hangover. blows the fuck up. And now
- 1:56:50Speaker 4: the pendulum has swung to Ken's side. Now Ken's calling
- 1:56:52Speaker 4: the shots, right? So Ken and Bobby are in San Francisco.
- 1:56:56Speaker 4: The line is outside the door, sold out.
- 1:56:58Speaker 1: It's fucking packed. It's going to be fun.
- 1:57:00Speaker 4: They're fucking screaming at each other. Ken's pissed off, bringing
- 1:57:03Speaker 4: up this thing from years ago. Bobby's going back at
- 1:57:06Speaker 4: him because Bobby's a fucking weasel. And they're just screaming
- 1:57:09Speaker 4: at each other. And Kevin Shea taps me. He's like, dude,
- 1:57:10Speaker 4: you might want to fucking break this up. And I'm like,
- 1:57:14Speaker 4: I'm going to let them go because this would be
- 1:57:15Speaker 4: the cutest fight I've ever seen in my life. It's
- 1:57:17Speaker 4: like a baby puppy and like a manchi chi wrestling.
- 1:57:22Speaker 4: They're both five foot like three.
- 1:57:24Speaker 1: Yeah. Tiny, tiny little human beings.
- 1:57:26Speaker 4: But Bobby, when he was on Mad TV, he was
- 1:57:28Speaker 4: telling me the story about this girl just got hired
- 1:57:32Speaker 4: at Mad TV.
- 1:57:33Speaker 1: And so she's filling out paperwork.
- 1:57:36Speaker 4: And Bobby thinks it would be funny and a good
- 1:57:38Speaker 4: idea to pull up a chair behind her quietly as
- 1:57:42Speaker 4: she's working.
- 1:57:43Speaker 1: Tap her on the shoulder, and as she turns.
- 1:57:45Speaker 4: Around, his ass is in her fucking face, and he
- 1:57:49Speaker 4: farts in her face.
- 1:57:51Speaker 2: Bobby did that?
- 1:57:52Speaker 4: Dear God.
- 1:57:53Speaker 1: Farts at it. She just, she's literally filling out like
- 1:57:55Speaker 1: a W-9, you know?
- 1:57:56Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah.
- 1:57:57Speaker 1: And she farts in the face, and Bobby's.
- 1:57:59Speaker 2: Like, hey, welcome back.
- 1:58:00Speaker 4: She's like, get the fuck away from me.
- 1:58:01Speaker 2: No shit.
- 1:58:03Speaker 4: So flash forward, like lunchtime, Bobby's on the phone with
- 1:58:08Speaker 4: the president of Fox Network, and lawyers going, what happened?
- 1:58:12Speaker 1: And Bobby's like, uh, okay, well.
- 1:58:14Speaker 3: I, oh my God.
- 1:58:16Speaker 2: Dude, that show is so funny. He's, oh my God.
- 1:58:20Speaker 4: But I always loved Bobby on mad TV and, and
- 1:58:23Speaker 4: he had me on there like 300th episode or something. they,
- 1:58:26Speaker 4: they had standup on it. And so Bobby, uh, said,
- 1:58:30Speaker 4: I know a great comic and he got me on it.
- 1:58:31Speaker 4: So it was, why did that show end? What happened there?
- 1:58:35Speaker 4: I think because it's on Fox and they didn't have
- 1:58:38Speaker 4: the consistency with it and they didn't, they never really
- 1:58:41Speaker 4: pushed it either. And it was different.
- 1:58:43Speaker 1: It was, it was very sketch heavy.
- 1:58:44Speaker 4: Um, as opposed to like doing something like update where
- 1:58:49Speaker 4: you had a chance to take a breather and get
- 1:58:51Speaker 4: to know some of the performers, it was just sketch
- 1:58:54Speaker 4: to sketch to sketch. So there was no like, uh,
- 1:58:56Speaker 4: I guess, investment in meeting the character role players because,
- 1:59:00Speaker 4: you know, when you had, and plus you never had
- 1:59:03Speaker 4: like the guest there through the guest, you got to meet,
- 1:59:06Speaker 4: you know, people during their monologues. So the players would
- 1:59:10Speaker 4: come out and run the monologues with them. So you
- 1:59:11Speaker 4: get to know them a bit more too. Mad TV
- 1:59:14Speaker 4: was just sketches. That's it.
- 1:59:16Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:59:16Speaker 4: And they didn't have musical guests that often either to
- 1:59:19Speaker 4: give you incentive to bring in a different broad audience
- 1:59:21Speaker 4: as well. But, I always liked it, but for me,
- 1:59:24Speaker 4: SNL is still, I still revere it.
- 1:59:26Speaker 2: Speaking of like an SNL vibe or a late night
- 1:59:29Speaker 2: show vibe, that's what you're building your premise off for
- 1:59:32Speaker 2: your show that's coming up in a few months.
- 1:59:33Speaker 4: Yeah, when I filmed this hour special, because you guys
- 1:59:35Speaker 4: know there's so many these days, and it's just somebody
- 1:59:38Speaker 4: in front of a curtain for 60 minutes pontificating. It's
- 1:59:41Speaker 4: called The Last Late Night, and it's an homage to
- 1:59:44Speaker 4: the late night talk show format.
- 1:59:45Speaker 1: So I thought, everybody's doing an hour. Do it a
- 1:59:48Speaker 1: little differently.
- 1:59:49Speaker 4: What can you do different in the space that's unique
- 1:59:51Speaker 4: and you're not breaking the mold, but it's still there.
- 1:59:54Speaker 4: So the most, to me, like something really digestible is
- 1:59:57Speaker 4: the late night talk show. If you really think about it,
- 1:59:59Speaker 4: it's three styles of writing. You come out with a monologue.
- 2:00:02Speaker 4: So those are kind of like fun one-liners, right? And
- 2:00:04Speaker 4: they're usually topical. So you do that for 20 minutes.
- 2:00:09Speaker 4: Then you go to panel. When you go to on
- 2:00:10Speaker 4: Colbert or Jimmy Fallon, you sit on the couch, he's
- 2:00:13Speaker 4: behind the desk, and the producers say, okay, give us
- 2:00:16Speaker 4: some stories. So it's really just storytelling. So that's 20 minutes.
- 2:00:21Speaker 4: Then you go to the third act, which is traditional
- 2:00:24Speaker 4: stand-up next to the band. So you do another 20
- 2:00:26Speaker 4: minutes there. So the set is going to look like
- 2:00:28Speaker 4: a talk show. I'll have a band.
- 2:00:30Speaker 1: Everything will feel like a talk show. The intro will
- 2:00:32Speaker 1: feel like a talk show.
- 2:00:33Speaker 4: And even the presentation of the material will be under
- 2:00:37Speaker 4: the umbrella and three-act structure of a talk show. I've
- 2:00:43Speaker 4: never seen anything like it before. And I was like,
- 2:00:45Speaker 4: that's it. Because I saw Neil Brennan's three mics. And
- 2:00:49Speaker 4: he just has three styles of comedy that he's bouncing between.
- 2:00:52Speaker 4: I had seen a comic do that with two mics
- 2:00:55Speaker 4: years ago on the MTV Half Hour Comedy Hour. It
- 2:00:57Speaker 4: was on in like the 90s. But I like Neil's concept,
- 2:01:00Speaker 4: but this is certainly absolutely more visual. And my material
- 2:01:04Speaker 4: is driven towards those things. But it all ties together
- 2:01:08Speaker 4: at the end, too, because there's a message behind it
- 2:01:10Speaker 4: of like the state of political correctness and woke and
- 2:01:14Speaker 4: cancel culture and everything, just as a comic trying to
- 2:01:16Speaker 4: do my part along with Andrew Schultz and Rogan and
- 2:01:19Speaker 4: Chappelle and Shane Gillis and all these comics to push
- 2:01:21Speaker 4: it back to go.
- 2:01:22Speaker 1: This shit's getting out of fucking control.
- 2:01:24Speaker 2: All of it.
- 2:01:24Speaker 1: So, so is there a guest element? Like, especially that, like, no,
- 2:01:28Speaker 1: it'll just be me.
- 2:01:30Speaker 4: Um, buddy. So it's Saturday, August 27th is open.
- 2:01:34Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
- 2:01:34Speaker 4: Theater.
- 2:01:35Speaker 1: You can get tickets. There's, there's a few tickets left
- 2:01:37Speaker 1: and it's filmed right here in Nashville. So it'd be cool. Oh,
- 2:01:39Speaker 1: that's awesome.
- 2:01:39Speaker 2: We're going to get tickets.
- 2:01:40Speaker 4: Yeah. I'll get you guys to, and my buddy Joe
- 2:01:42Speaker 4: Gatto from jokers, he's going to direct it.
- 2:01:43Speaker 2: Hmm. So direct the special, which would be cool. Is
- 2:01:47Speaker 2: there a goal in mind with it? Like, are you
- 2:01:50Speaker 2: trying to become a late night talk show type of guy?
- 2:01:52Speaker 3: No, because he's an outstanding late night guy.
- 2:01:54Speaker 2: He's got a vibe where you can just hang out.
- 2:01:56Speaker 2: You kind of riff.
- 2:01:57Speaker 3: Yeah, you kind of sit there. That's the whole point
- 2:02:00Speaker 3: of a late night. You're sitting with your buddy and
- 2:02:01Speaker 3: you're talking. Look at you.
- 2:02:04Speaker 4: I'm going to trim my pubes here in a second.
- 2:02:07Speaker 1: My toenails.
- 2:02:09Speaker 4: No, I think the format's kind of antiquated, you know?
- 2:02:12Speaker 4: In the 70s and 80s, the variety show was popular.
- 2:02:15Speaker 4: And in the 80s and 90s, that became antiquated. And
- 2:02:18Speaker 4: I think what's happening now with late night talk shows,
- 2:02:20Speaker 4: the relevance of seeing your favorite film stars peel back
- 2:02:24Speaker 4: the curtain, get to know them and hear a story
- 2:02:26Speaker 4: about it.
- 2:02:26Speaker 1: It's all gone.
- 2:02:27Speaker 4: Like the reverence of it is done because now it's
- 2:02:31Speaker 4: all on your phone. Like somebody from Rotten Tomatoes is
- 2:02:33Speaker 4: talking about Top Gun 2 and they'll get a soundbite
- 2:02:36Speaker 4: of Tom Cruise talking about it. Like, You get people
- 2:02:39Speaker 4: that kind of reinvent it, like James Corden with the
- 2:02:41Speaker 4: late-night karaoke stuff.
- 2:02:43Speaker 1: That was kind of cool.
- 2:02:43Speaker 2: He's cool.
- 2:02:44Speaker 1: But you're still watching it online.
- 2:02:46Speaker 3: They do skits, too, and they play games, Two Truths
- 2:02:47Speaker 3: and a Lie with Jimmy Fallon and stuff like that.
- 2:02:49Speaker 1: He does some fun stuff.
- 2:02:50Speaker 3: I like Jimmy.
- 2:02:52Speaker 2: I think he does a great job.
- 2:02:53Speaker 1: He's a great host. Yeah.
- 2:02:55Speaker 4: He understands that sometimes you get, I don't know, like
- 2:02:57Speaker 4: there's certain hosts that I think more the attention is
- 2:03:02Speaker 4: towards them or they can't wait to make a joke
- 2:03:03Speaker 4: or whatever. That's why.
- 2:03:04Speaker 1: It's kind of centric around them.
- 2:03:06Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, that's why I always thought Carson was the
- 2:03:08Speaker 4: greatest because it didn't matter who got the laugh as
- 2:03:11Speaker 4: long as the show got the laugh.
- 2:03:12Speaker 1: As long as we're all laughing.
- 2:03:15Speaker 2: Pro vibes. Pro vibes.
- 2:03:18Speaker 3: I feel a future Hatter t-shirt coming with that.
- 2:03:20Speaker 2: Pro vibes. Pro vibes. Yeah. Let's go. Yeah. Hear it?
- 2:03:25Speaker 2: Write that down.
- 2:03:25Speaker 1: Shall we do a tear talk? Tear talk. I know
- 2:03:27Speaker 1: this has been a long episode. It's been fucking awesome,
- 2:03:30Speaker 1: by the way.
- 2:03:31Speaker 4: I apologize to like your listeners.
- 2:03:32Speaker 1: It's like, oh, it's a comedian. It's going to be
- 2:03:33Speaker 1: fucking fun.
- 2:03:34Speaker 4: And it's like, it got a lot more serious, but I,
- 2:03:36Speaker 4: sorry about that.
- 2:03:37Speaker 1: I think people appreciate it.
- 2:03:38Speaker 2: Do you feel like being a comedian, you have to
- 2:03:39Speaker 2: be funny all the time?
- 2:03:41Speaker 4: There's times where like, yeah, you feel like I should
- 2:03:43Speaker 4: chime in here. And even like, even when I'm talking,
- 2:03:45Speaker 4: it's like, oh, I could do this trumpet. I could
- 2:03:48Speaker 4: do this bit or I could improv. But like with
- 2:03:50Speaker 4: you guys, it's, it just feels comfortable. So it's been nice.
- 2:03:53Speaker 1: And I think, Shall we get a three-way then?
- 2:03:56Speaker 2: As long as it's.
- 2:03:56Speaker 1: Interesting, I hope the conversation is interesting.
- 2:03:59Speaker 4: There you go.
- 2:04:00Speaker 2: It's a homie bus. Do you know the premise of
- 2:04:02Speaker 2: Tear Talk?
- 2:04:03Speaker 1: We kind of explained it earlier. And we're doing.
- 2:04:17Speaker 2: So tier talk, tiers one through three, obviously your top three.
- 2:04:20Speaker 2: We obviously were arguing about it earlier with the sports movies,
- 2:04:22Speaker 2: but you will start with your tier three and build up.
- 2:04:25Speaker 3: This is a good way to get roasted on the internet.
- 2:04:26Speaker 1: You can choose.
- 2:04:28Speaker 2: Have you seen any of the clips on Instagram or
- 2:04:29Speaker 2: Twitter where you can go follow us at BustinWTV? You
- 2:04:31Speaker 2: said you did.
- 2:04:32Speaker 1: I didn't see the tier talks per se.
- 2:04:34Speaker 2: No. So, yeah. So usually you can say them, but
- 2:04:38Speaker 2: it's usually better if you give some context as to
- 2:04:41Speaker 2: why you're choosing them.
- 2:04:41Speaker 3: And do you follow Bustin with a voice?
- 2:04:43Speaker 2: I do. Yeah.
- 2:04:44Speaker 5: Okay, good.
- 2:04:44Speaker 4: On Instagram. Yeah.
- 2:04:45Speaker 2: Just making sure. Love that. That's huge. Tier three.
- 2:04:48Speaker 3: So you're going to go first.
- 2:04:49Speaker 1: I know it's tough.
- 2:04:50Speaker 2: I can pick from. You can pick whatever you want.
- 2:04:52Speaker 3: This is more like a guideline.
- 2:04:53Speaker 2: Yeah, it's more like a guideline.
- 2:04:55Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:04:55Speaker 2: You've got my tier one on here, though, which is
- 2:04:57Speaker 2: going to get roasted. Hey, never mind.
- 2:05:01Speaker 4: Tier.
- 2:05:01Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no. Never mind.
- 2:05:04Speaker 1: I had a question, but it's already on there. So
- 2:05:05Speaker 1: I go three, two, one.
- 2:05:06Speaker 4: Right.
- 2:05:07Speaker 2: Do I do it in order or do we go three, three, three, two, two, two. No, no.
- 2:05:10Speaker 1: You do an order.
- 2:05:11Speaker 2: We, I mean, it'd be fun. You want to do that?
- 2:05:14Speaker 2: You want to change it up? When I was telling
- 2:05:15Speaker 2: the boys CJ was on, he goes, since I'm sitting
- 2:05:18Speaker 2: in Taylor's seat, I want to go last. I was like,
- 2:05:19Speaker 2: it's funny you brought that up because I was actually
- 2:05:21Speaker 2: going to try and make an argument and say I
- 2:05:23Speaker 2: have earned the right to.
- 2:05:24Speaker 1: Go last since the scoreboard is.
- 2:05:25Speaker 2: I think we can agree.
- 2:05:29Speaker 3: You have more followers than me now, homie. My boy
- 2:05:31Speaker 3: got his followings up. It's been a good glow up
- 2:05:34Speaker 3: here for Willie.
- 2:05:35Speaker 1: That's great.
- 2:05:36Speaker 2: I appreciate it.
- 2:05:38Speaker 1: Like trying to take a comment. I appreciate that.
- 2:05:41Speaker 3: But no, the line's been drawn. And so I will
- 2:05:44Speaker 3: go last.
- 2:05:44Speaker 4: Do you want me to start?
- 2:05:45Speaker 2: You start it.
- 2:05:46Speaker 1: You'll go three.
- 2:05:47Speaker 2: I go three. And then one of you guys go.
- 2:05:49Speaker 2: I'll go.
- 2:05:49Speaker 1: Damn, we're doing three, three, three, three, three.
- 2:05:52Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:05:52Speaker 2: I think that'd be a fun little element.
- 2:05:53Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:05:54Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:05:54Speaker 4: My tier three is Martin.
- 2:05:58Speaker 1: While really trying to get the black community right. I
- 2:06:01Speaker 1: fucking love Martin Lawrence back in the day. Oh my God,
- 2:06:03Speaker 1: that show.
- 2:06:03Speaker 2: I've seen it. Come on now.
- 2:06:04Speaker 1: I had college roommates.
- 2:06:05Speaker 3: They got that mic back there.
- 2:06:06Speaker 1: They were fucking loving it. You guys never watched Martin?
- 2:06:09Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen Martin.
- 2:06:11Speaker 1: Oh my God, his roommates are going animated.
- 2:06:13Speaker 4: I love that show because in anybody else's hands, they
- 2:06:17Speaker 4: would play that straight. He's physically giving every line and over,
- 2:06:21Speaker 4: he's like, Almost like a black Jim Carrey. Like, everything
- 2:06:25Speaker 4: is so much more accentuated. I fucking love it. He
- 2:06:28Speaker 4: just threw every ounce of his body and soul into
- 2:06:31Speaker 4: that show. And everybody else is just pedestrian in it
- 2:06:34Speaker 4: and grounding it.
- 2:06:35Speaker 3: God. I'll tell you, the way you explained that just
- 2:06:37Speaker 3: now kind of fired me up.
- 2:06:38Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:06:38Speaker 2: I like that.
- 2:06:39Speaker 1: I love that show.
- 2:06:40Speaker 3: I love, like, the view you have on this stuff
- 2:06:43Speaker 3: that we wouldn't have because you've been living it.
- 2:06:45Speaker 2: You know?
- 2:06:46Speaker 3: Like, he threw his body into it. He was so eccentric.
- 2:06:48Speaker 2: Everyone was just there to support him while he did it.
- 2:06:50Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, she was funny. You know? He reads
- 2:06:54Speaker 2: and writes and does all the storytelling.
- 2:06:57Speaker 1: Very well spoken. Very well spoken. A lot of big
- 2:06:59Speaker 1: words I gotta Google later. A lot of big words.
- 2:07:01Speaker 1: Who's gonna go from the back?
- 2:07:08Speaker 2: This is your tier one.
- 2:07:10Speaker 1: Okay, my tier one. They each do their tier one
- 2:07:12Speaker 1: and this will be their three.
- 2:07:14Speaker 2: Wait, what?
- 2:07:14Speaker 1: So they all get it? They each give their favorite one.
- 2:07:18Speaker 1: And that is their one.
- 2:07:20Speaker 4: Two, three.
- 2:07:20Speaker 3: Got you. So JP's Okay.
- 2:07:23Speaker 7: Yeah, my tier one is... We mentioned them earlier. Are
- 2:07:27Speaker 7: you going tier one or tier three, too?
- 2:07:29Speaker 4: Huh?
- 2:07:30Speaker 1: Tier one or tier three?
- 2:07:32Speaker 2: Their collective is going to be... Got it.
- 2:07:35Speaker 4: Sorry. No, no.
- 2:07:37Speaker 1: You're going to say tier two or tier one. But
- 2:07:41Speaker 1: that don't make no sense.
- 2:07:42Speaker 2: What is going to be on the graph is going
- 2:07:43Speaker 2: to be.
- 2:07:47Speaker 3: Do we let everybody have their own tiers?
- 2:07:49Speaker 2: Maybe we just leave it up there. The chart would
- 2:07:51Speaker 2: be way too small and too many crap things going on.
- 2:07:54Speaker 1: How about this?
- 2:07:56Speaker 3: They give their tier threes and us as a group
- 2:07:59Speaker 3: picks the best one out of it that makes it
- 2:08:00Speaker 3: on the graph.
- 2:08:01Speaker 2: Oh an element you like that right I love elements
- 2:08:05Speaker 2: yes let's go hey this one if that's on your
- 2:08:13Speaker 2: tier list you're a piece of shit oh no which
- 2:08:17Speaker 2: one that second from the.
- 2:08:19Speaker 3: Bottom I mean, it is like that, but there's only
- 2:08:22Speaker 3: been one season, two seasons.
- 2:08:23Speaker 2: I know. Yeah, you're right.
- 2:08:24Speaker 1: And that's a lot of recency bias going into it.
- 2:08:26Speaker 2: A lot of recency bias. That's a phenomenal show.
- 2:08:28Speaker 3: Because I can name three that's like... There's two seasons, right?
- 2:08:30Speaker 3: I think there's two seasons. There's a third one coming
- 2:08:31Speaker 3: out soon, right? And it's a fire show. But it's
- 2:08:34Speaker 3: so premature.
- 2:08:35Speaker 5: I agree.
- 2:08:36Speaker 1: It's so premature.
- 2:08:36Speaker 4: I agree.
- 2:08:37Speaker 2: Appreciate that, Jack.
- 2:08:38Speaker 1: Hey, how's... Dude, we cannot let Jack be like.
- 2:08:41Speaker 2: Bro, he's owning us right now. He's a teenager, dude.
- 2:08:44Speaker 4: He just.
- 2:08:44Speaker 2: He goes... He don't listen no more. I agree.
- 2:08:47Speaker 3: That's good taylor good job you're developing all right so
- 2:08:51Speaker 3: jp give us your tier three.
- 2:08:53Speaker 7: My tier three is the office and i was late
- 2:08:57Speaker 7: to the office i was always a hater of it
- 2:08:59Speaker 7: like yeah this is kind of this is mid yeah
- 2:09:02Speaker 7: and they're like just watch it i started to watch
- 2:09:04Speaker 7: it you know the characters it's like all right this
- 2:09:06Speaker 7: is this is solid so my tier three is the office.
- 2:09:09Speaker 5: Jackie tier three My tier three would be It's Always
- 2:09:12Speaker 5: Sunny in Philadelphia. Still running to today. Phenomenal cast.
- 2:09:15Speaker 2: Very hilarious. Charlie Dace is the end. We're in the
- 2:09:18Speaker 2: first episode.
- 2:09:19Speaker 1: Is he really?
- 2:09:20Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:09:21Speaker 2: So that one's canceled.
- 2:09:23Speaker 4: My tier three is going to be That 70s Show.
- 2:09:26Speaker 4: I think that one's a sleeper.
- 2:09:28Speaker 2: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:09:32Speaker 1: Sorry, I fucked up.
- 2:09:33Speaker 2: But when you pick, though.
- 2:09:36Speaker 5: Like, let's say Garrett has an incredible tier three. What
- 2:09:38Speaker 5: if it's someone's tier two and that's where.
- 2:09:41Speaker 2: It.
- 2:09:43Speaker 3: Does play a little.
- 2:09:44Speaker 1: Because Garrett's is in my list.
- 2:09:47Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know.
- 2:09:49Speaker 3: Hey, cut out the part where Will says Garrett's is
- 2:09:51Speaker 3: in my list because you don't want people on their
- 2:09:54Speaker 3: seats right now, the edge of their seats.
- 2:09:55Speaker 1: I know, but that reaction that he.
- 2:09:58Speaker 3: I gave, we both gave, yeah.
- 2:09:59Speaker 2: I shouldn't have done that.
- 2:10:00Speaker 3: I shouldn't have done that.
- 2:10:02Speaker 1: I wanted you to... I wanted that to happen.
- 2:10:04Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:10:05Speaker 1: My tier three is, and I hate that I'm piggybacking.
- 2:10:11Speaker 1: You know what?
- 2:10:12Speaker 2: I don't want to piggyback. I'm going to throw an
- 2:10:13Speaker 2: honorable mention to the office. My tier three, you know
- 2:10:17Speaker 2: how I like to get a little wiggle room. My
- 2:10:19Speaker 2: tier three will be friends. I think friends is fucking
- 2:10:22Speaker 2: all time. I loved every season. I binged all of it.
- 2:10:25Speaker 2: I binged it the second time when I was in
- 2:10:28Speaker 2: year three or four and loved every minute of it.
- 2:10:32Speaker 2: I watched their reunion. And to me, like, Taking friends,
- 2:10:36Speaker 2: because they did, what, 10 seasons?
- 2:10:38Speaker 4: I think so, yeah.
- 2:10:39Speaker 2: 10 years of people being best friends. Like, everyone in
- 2:10:42Speaker 2: their world. Like, we go through high school. We think, man,
- 2:10:45Speaker 2: when we're in high school and we're going to hit
- 2:10:46Speaker 2: our careers, we think one day we're all going to
- 2:10:47Speaker 2: come back to our bubble.
- 2:10:48Speaker 4: Right, yeah.
- 2:10:49Speaker 2: See who did what and compare it in the romances
- 2:10:51Speaker 2: that go on. Same with college. Like, the fact that
- 2:10:53Speaker 2: these guys, and that's four years growing up together and
- 2:10:56Speaker 2: four years of high school. But going through 10 years
- 2:10:59Speaker 2: of being like an adult in a show, going back
- 2:11:01Speaker 2: and forth, riffing off each other, figuring each other out,
- 2:11:03Speaker 2: they probably did have romances.
- 2:11:05Speaker 1: Ross and.
- 2:11:06Speaker 2: Rachel. Rachel, yeah, yeah.
- 2:11:08Speaker 1: Fuck, I almost drew a blank right there. I got
- 2:11:10Speaker 1: your back. But their actual romance was a real thing.
- 2:11:12Speaker 2: And for them to come back and do their anniversary
- 2:11:14Speaker 2: and to see that they get to kind of do
- 2:11:16Speaker 2: what everyone kind of thinks about in high school, I
- 2:11:18Speaker 2: think is incredible.
- 2:11:19Speaker 1: So my tier three is going to be friends. Dude,
- 2:11:22Speaker 1: that's a great way to put it.
- 2:11:23Speaker 2: Dude, yes!
- 2:11:24Speaker 3: That was solid. That was solid. I don't like doing
- 2:11:28Speaker 3: it this way.
- 2:11:29Speaker 1: I don't like it.
- 2:11:30Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:11:30Speaker 1: It's, well, you know, fuck, dude.
- 2:11:35Speaker 2: Because there's like five on here. They could really go
- 2:11:37Speaker 2: in any order for me.
- 2:11:38Speaker 4: For sure.
- 2:11:40Speaker 3: At first, I disagreed with Will, but I got to
- 2:11:43Speaker 3: give an honorable mention to the office as well.
- 2:11:46Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:11:47Speaker 3: Dude, this sucks.
- 2:11:49Speaker 2: It's just the camera angle vibes that Office gives and
- 2:11:53Speaker 2: the zoom-ins and.
- 2:11:54Speaker 1: The reacting to the camera, the awareness.
- 2:11:55Speaker 3: You can put it on any time, too, and it's
- 2:11:57Speaker 3: just background. That's really all sitcoms. You can kind of
- 2:11:59Speaker 3: do that with the ones you love.
- 2:12:01Speaker 4: All right.
- 2:12:04Speaker 3: My heart's pounding out of my chest right now.
- 2:12:08Speaker 2: Because... My tier three.
- 2:12:11Speaker 1: This is like a rose ceremony on The Bachelor.
- 2:12:14Speaker 4: You got to insert the drama music, close-ups.
- 2:12:19Speaker 3: I think ours is going to be the same. That's okay.
- 2:12:20Speaker 3: For tier three and two. Bro, my tier three is friends.
- 2:12:27Speaker 3: And there's not a whole lot I can say other
- 2:12:29Speaker 3: than what Will just said. The romances, everybody getting along
- 2:12:33Speaker 3: with each other, everybody's own specific storyline that they were
- 2:12:36Speaker 3: able to go and develop on their own. You fell
- 2:12:37Speaker 3: in love with each of them every single time. Everyone
- 2:12:39Speaker 3: was a big Chandler guy. Then after three or four seasons,
- 2:12:41Speaker 3: you're like, yo, I love Joey too. And then everyone
- 2:12:44Speaker 3: kind of hates on Ross for a little bit, but
- 2:12:45Speaker 3: he's like- Yo, he's got to be there, too. He
- 2:12:48Speaker 3: needs to be there. And then he gets the hottest girl.
- 2:12:51Speaker 3: Then Monica comes in.
- 2:12:52Speaker 2: Oh, my God.
- 2:12:52Speaker 3: Chandler and Monica are now a thing. That's fucking crazy
- 2:12:55Speaker 3: to me. I didn't know that could happen. Now, all
- 2:12:57Speaker 3: of a sudden, Joey's into Rachel, and he doesn't know
- 2:12:59Speaker 3: how to tell Ross. How's Ross going to feel?
- 2:13:01Speaker 2: And the engagement. And his apartment's right across the street.
- 2:13:03Speaker 2: They can see under the window. They can see what's
- 2:13:04Speaker 2: going on. Remember the engagement when she was having the baby,
- 2:13:07Speaker 2: and Joey turns around?
- 2:13:08Speaker 3: Oh, Phoebe's now a surrogate for another family?
- 2:13:11Speaker 2: That's crazy.
- 2:13:12Speaker 4: The coffee shop?
- 2:13:13Speaker 2: The number one hit?
- 2:13:14Speaker 3: The coffee shop is a thing? It is unbelievable, dude.
- 2:13:18Speaker 3: Goosebumps again.
- 2:13:18Speaker 2: Wow.
- 2:13:19Speaker 3: I think Friends is a tier three.
- 2:13:20Speaker 2: You broke it all down. You did.
- 2:13:21Speaker 4: What sounded like a rap.
- 2:13:23Speaker 2: Dude. Oh, my God.
- 2:13:25Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:13:25Speaker 4: That was great, dude. Man.
- 2:13:28Speaker 3: I think our tier twos are going to be the
- 2:13:30Speaker 3: same also.
- 2:13:31Speaker 4: I think.
- 2:13:31Speaker 2: Don't say nothing, though. Don't say nothing.
- 2:13:32Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:13:34Speaker 2: We've been cemented.
- 2:13:34Speaker 4: Tier three.
- 2:13:35Speaker 1: We're good.
- 2:13:38Speaker 2: JP, you're up.
- 2:13:38Speaker 4: All right.
- 2:13:39Speaker 7: My tier two. I think this would have been my
- 2:13:43Speaker 7: tier one if I was older. But my tier two
- 2:13:46Speaker 7: is Seinfeld. I think it's just unreal. That's what they
- 2:13:52Speaker 7: said when it was first. I'm going on record. Is
- 2:13:54Speaker 7: this my camera?
- 2:13:55Speaker 1: I'm on record. I fucking hate him.
- 2:13:57Speaker 2: Oh, you don't like Seinfeld.
- 2:13:58Speaker 1: You actually don't like him.
- 2:13:59Speaker 3: I've heard Seinfeld's a piece though.
- 2:14:01Speaker 2: Oh, wow.
- 2:14:02Speaker 1: Sidebar story? We got a side story? He's just a
- 2:14:05Speaker 1: horrible person.
- 2:14:06Speaker 3: Oh, you see his interview with Larry King when the
- 2:14:08Speaker 3: B movie came out?
- 2:14:09Speaker 4: Just watch that.
- 2:14:09Speaker 3: Just watch that.
- 2:14:10Speaker 2: So you're just saying from watching on the outside in,
- 2:14:12Speaker 2: he's being at the cellar and just seeing him and
- 2:14:14Speaker 2: just like how he just the air about him.
- 2:14:18Speaker 4: It's just like, oh God, what a horrible, you know,
- 2:14:20Speaker 4: like when, when, when the room, when somebody walks in
- 2:14:23Speaker 4: the room and it.
- 2:14:24Speaker 1: Just gets cold.
- 2:14:25Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:14:25Speaker 1: Like that's what it's like for me.
- 2:14:26Speaker 2: I'm like, I did not have fun. Hang, hang.
- 2:14:29Speaker 4: There's no hang.
- 2:14:31Speaker 1: He just floats in with arrogance and then leaves with arrogance.
- 2:14:35Speaker 1: Jerry Seinfeld is on top of the world. Yeah, so
- 2:14:38Speaker 1: you wouldn't do the coffee show?
- 2:14:40Speaker 2: Getting coffee? Oh, yeah. I'd sooner quit comedy and watch...
- 2:14:46Speaker 2: I was never a big Seinfeld guy, but that.
- 2:14:49Speaker 1: I heard that thing's.
- 2:14:50Speaker 2: Good, yeah, but, you know, it's just.
- 2:14:52Speaker 1: But go ahead, continue, JP.
- 2:14:53Speaker 3: Yeah, it's gotta be tough to talk about after that
- 2:14:56Speaker 3: just happened.
- 2:14:56Speaker 7: Facts don't care about your feelings. I separate the person
- 2:14:59Speaker 7: from the show. As a male character, it's weird to hear.
- 2:15:02Speaker 4: Fuck you, dude.
- 2:15:03Speaker 2: That's crazy.
- 2:15:05Speaker 1: So yeah, tier two, Seinfeld. Now they're all going, right?
- 2:15:09Speaker 1: They're all going. So this is Jack's tier two.
- 2:15:11Speaker 5: This is tough, man. My tier two is going to
- 2:15:19Speaker 5: be Arrested Development. This phenomenal show with a lot of
- 2:15:23Speaker 5: the way they... intertwine all the running jokes throughout the seasons.
- 2:15:27Speaker 5: It's very well-written, not just like an easy comedy to
- 2:15:32Speaker 5: be a part of. Once you really get invested, all
- 2:15:35Speaker 5: of the banana stand, I mean, there's so much.
- 2:15:38Speaker 1: If you shut your eyes, you hear Steve-O.
- 2:15:42Speaker 2: Yeah, all kind of.
- 2:15:44Speaker 1: Do people ever tell you you sound like Steve-O?
- 2:15:45Speaker 5: No, but I definitely have that very, like, one of those.
- 2:15:49Speaker 5: You sound like a stoner. Yeah, it's the reason you
- 2:15:52Speaker 5: guys started calling me Stoner Jack.
- 2:15:54Speaker 1: Yeah, which I thought was such a cool nickname and
- 2:15:55Speaker 1: you totally shit on it.
- 2:15:56Speaker 5: Well, yeah, you know, I didn't have a career at
- 2:15:58Speaker 5: the time, so that's pretty.
- 2:16:00Speaker 3: So you go back to being Stunner Jack now? No, I'm...
- 2:16:02Speaker 3: And now you're Milk Hunter Jack.
- 2:16:05Speaker 5: You guys are just trying to destroy my career at
- 2:16:07Speaker 5: all times.
- 2:16:07Speaker 4: That's okay with me. Did I really?
- 2:16:11Speaker 2: No, no, no, no.
- 2:16:12Speaker 1: But I thought of one and it is breaking my heart.
- 2:16:16Speaker 2: That's not your tier three? Yeah. You saw me put
- 2:16:19Speaker 2: my fist down.
- 2:16:19Speaker 1: I know, I'm very upset. I'm very upset about it.
- 2:16:22Speaker 3: Okay, so Arrested Development for Jackie.
- 2:16:25Speaker 2: I'm kind of.
- 2:16:26Speaker 9: Confused if this is a sitcom, but Eastbound and Down
- 2:16:29Speaker 9: is going to be my tier two.
- 2:16:31Speaker 4: Does that count?
- 2:16:32Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 2:16:33Speaker 4: That would be a single cam. Isn't that like an
- 2:16:35Speaker 4: HBO show? I think you would put that in because
- 2:16:37Speaker 4: they're both single cam shows. Okay.
- 2:16:40Speaker 1: It's like on HBO, right?
- 2:16:42Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:16:42Speaker 1: There's Entourage. I mean, sitcom to me, you've got to
- 2:16:44Speaker 1: be on cable television.
- 2:16:45Speaker 2: Entourage isn't considered a comedy, though. Yeah, you're right. That
- 2:16:49Speaker 2: was bad. You know what I'm saying?
- 2:16:50Speaker 1: If you have the HBO channel, it's on TV.
- 2:16:54Speaker 4: If you're rich. The tournament, though? That's why I'm confused.
- 2:16:59Speaker 4: It's 30 minutes.
- 2:17:00Speaker 2: You want to say save?
- 2:17:01Speaker 3: It's got to be 30 minutes or less?
- 2:17:03Speaker 2: Oh.
- 2:17:03Speaker 4: If it is, eastbound and down is one of the
- 2:17:05Speaker 4: funniest things I've ever seen.
- 2:17:06Speaker 2: So it's Righteous Gemstone? That's why I'm like... That's why I.
- 2:17:09Speaker 4: Don't want to get into that area.
- 2:17:11Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I never... Yeah.
- 2:17:15Speaker 2: Here, I think it should be the 30 minutes or less,
- 2:17:18Speaker 2: and it should be on cable television. Where everybody can
- 2:17:19Speaker 2: enjoy it. Yeah, where everybody can enjoy it.
- 2:17:20Speaker 3: You're going to have the channels.
- 2:17:21Speaker 1: Yeah. Okay. Yes.
- 2:17:23Speaker 3: All right, so that's tough. We're going to take it
- 2:17:24Speaker 3: away from you. We're going to take it away from you, Garrett. Oh,
- 2:17:27Speaker 3: Will put his fist down. Do you want us to
- 2:17:30Speaker 3: come back to you?
- 2:17:31Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm going to come back.
- 2:17:32Speaker 2: Okay, that's fair.
- 2:17:32Speaker 5: Stevie?
- 2:17:34Speaker 1: Okay, my tier two.
- 2:17:35Speaker 3: 30 minutes or less, cable TV.
- 2:17:37Speaker 4: My honorable mention, because I think it was Cheers.
- 2:17:41Speaker 1: Because I fucking love Cheers. I can watch that every night.
- 2:17:42Speaker 2: Good one, too, dude. That's a good one, too.
- 2:17:45Speaker 1: Cheers is unbelievable. Oh, dude, Norm.
- 2:17:47Speaker 3: Hey, what do you What did you say Hey Norm
- 2:17:49Speaker 3: what's shaking Two cheeks and a couple of chins Hand
- 2:17:51Speaker 3: me a beer.
- 2:17:52Speaker 4: Yeah Dude Every time he sat down The best Cold
- 2:17:55Speaker 4: open Of that show It was one of the few
- 2:17:58Speaker 4: They ever did outside Norm standing outside And um.
- 2:18:04Speaker 1: And I think Woody Woody comes out And.
- 2:18:06Speaker 4: Uh He's like What are you doing Wait wait wait
- 2:18:08Speaker 4: wait And then this car drives by and honks and
- 2:18:11Speaker 4: Norm waves. He goes, oh, who was that? He's like, ah,
- 2:18:14Speaker 4: it's my wife. It was our anniversary today. And he
- 2:18:17Speaker 4: goes back downstairs. That's the opening.
- 2:18:19Speaker 1: It was fucking brilliant. Yeah, so that's my honorable mention.
- 2:18:21Speaker 4: But my tier two, it's a curveball, but it's the
- 2:18:26Speaker 4: British office. The British office is the greatest single cam
- 2:18:32Speaker 4: show done. It was so popular, it created, it basically
- 2:18:37Speaker 4: gave license to Dirty Rock, Parks and Rec, all of them,
- 2:18:43Speaker 4: they all copied that style. And it was on BBC Two.
- 2:18:48Speaker 4: Ricky Gervais did it on nothing of a budget. The
- 2:18:52Speaker 4: whole stilted camera in the back, they all ripped off
- 2:18:54Speaker 4: of it. The American office, I enjoy, but the British office,
- 2:18:58Speaker 4: nothing will touch it. It's so uncomfortable. It's so fucking great.
- 2:19:02Speaker 4: Ricky Gervais is a genius in that show. If you've
- 2:19:04Speaker 4: never seen it, watch. There are only six episodes a season,
- 2:19:07Speaker 4: by the way. over in England. So there's three seasons.
- 2:19:11Speaker 4: It's like 18 episodes. They, and, and to his point,
- 2:19:14Speaker 4: when he, when he, when he saw Steve Carell get
- 2:19:17Speaker 4: the award at the Emmys, he said, uh, ours was
- 2:19:20Speaker 4: only three seasons and only like 18 episodes.
- 2:19:22Speaker 1: He said, uh, quality over quantity.
- 2:19:25Speaker 4: And I do agree with that sentiment though, because they jammed.
- 2:19:28Speaker 4: That show is so rock solid. There's no fat on
- 2:19:31Speaker 4: those shows. It's great.
- 2:19:32Speaker 2: I am.
- 2:19:34Speaker 3: Now you, the way you put it and had me
- 2:19:36Speaker 3: agree with you a little bit, I don't know how
- 2:19:37Speaker 3: it's going.
- 2:19:37Speaker 2: To be received. It's fine.
- 2:19:39Speaker 4: Because the office is so revered here. You don't have
- 2:19:41Speaker 4: the British office. You don't have the office. You don't
- 2:19:43Speaker 4: have any of those single cam shows that were to
- 2:19:45Speaker 4: Arrested Development.
- 2:19:46Speaker 2: None of it.
- 2:19:47Speaker 1: Unless you have the British office.
- 2:19:48Speaker 2: I love that.
- 2:19:50Speaker 1: I love that you stick your flagpole on the ground.
- 2:19:52Speaker 4: From Christopher Guest because of the mockumentary Spinal Tap was
- 2:19:55Speaker 4: so influential to him. He wanted to make the mockumentary
- 2:19:59Speaker 4: of being in a shitty office in, you know, working
- 2:20:02Speaker 4: class England.
- 2:20:03Speaker 2: That's pretty outstanding. I'm absolutely sick.
- 2:20:08Speaker 1: Bro, I'm sick too because I just thought of two.
- 2:20:10Speaker 2: I'm absolutely sick to my stomach that I can only
- 2:20:13Speaker 2: say two more because I have three, like a true three. Yeah.
- 2:20:17Speaker 1: And the fact that I've already said a tier three
- 2:20:18Speaker 1: and I've said an honorable mention, it's like.
- 2:20:21Speaker 4: My baby girl came to me right away. I know
- 2:20:23Speaker 4: my number one. I know my number one in a minute.
- 2:20:25Speaker 2: I could puke. This might not be well received by
- 2:20:34Speaker 2: you guys, but I would like to ask if I
- 2:20:36Speaker 2: can bump....
- 2:20:39Speaker 1: It's okay if it's no.
- 2:20:40Speaker 2: It's okay. I promise it's okay.
- 2:20:42Speaker 1: Is the ink dry yet? I put my fist down.
- 2:20:46Speaker 7: You did.
- 2:20:46Speaker 2: My hands are literally sweating. I'm so sick.
- 2:20:51Speaker 3: I am lost right now.
- 2:20:53Speaker 1: Here's the deal.
- 2:20:54Speaker 2: We all got to vote. I'll go first. I think
- 2:20:59Speaker 2: that's okay. I really appreciate that. I really do appreciate that.
- 2:21:02Speaker 1: You guys want to start over?
- 2:21:04Speaker 2: No, no, no. For Will to bump his three.
- 2:21:07Speaker 1: For me to knock my three.
- 2:21:09Speaker 3: And he's going to have two honorable mentions now.
- 2:21:11Speaker 1: So will I.
- 2:21:12Speaker 2: I'm such a fucking loser.
- 2:21:21Speaker 1: We will not allow that with you.
- 2:21:23Speaker 4: Why? Then vote against it.
- 2:21:24Speaker 2: We have to vote.
- 2:21:25Speaker 4: We have to vote.
- 2:21:26Speaker 1: You should have done that after they voted. Now they're
- 2:21:28Speaker 1: going to vote against you. I need to bump my three, too.
- 2:21:32Speaker 3: Hey, Jack, you want that Silverado?
- 2:21:33Speaker 2: Come on. All right, all right.
- 2:21:36Speaker 5: I say yes.
- 2:21:37Speaker 2: JP?
- 2:21:38Speaker 1: I would say yeah.
- 2:21:38Speaker 4: Yeah, why not?
- 2:21:39Speaker 2: I appreciate it.
- 2:21:39Speaker 4: Okay, that's two.
- 2:21:42Speaker 2: I say no. I say no. That's good because we
- 2:21:46Speaker 2: got the people on the show. Their votes go up.
- 2:21:49Speaker 4: Oh, really?
- 2:21:50Speaker 2: You guys kind of like double.
- 2:21:51Speaker 3: That's crazy. All Dictator Willie, dude.
- 2:21:54Speaker 2: Dictator Willie. But I agree. Let's go, baby.
- 2:21:58Speaker 3: I want to change mine, too.
- 2:22:01Speaker 2: It benefits me. Let's go. We can't let the prisoners
- 2:22:03Speaker 2: run the yard. You talk crazy about your boys. I
- 2:22:08Speaker 2: saw y'all in Vermont having a great time. I'm like, damn,
- 2:22:10Speaker 2: they're getting relationships.
- 2:22:11Speaker 1: Sounds like it wasn't.
- 2:22:13Speaker 2: Oh, God. All right. So, Willie, give us your two
- 2:22:18Speaker 2: honorable mentions in your tier three. My two honorable mentions, like,
- 2:22:22Speaker 2: I'm sad we had to bump friends. That's what we
- 2:22:25Speaker 2: said about it, too. We really did friends right. Go ahead.
- 2:22:28Speaker 5: Yes.
- 2:22:28Speaker 4: Oh, wow, okay.
- 2:22:29Speaker 2: I'm not adding, like, another honorable mention in there. I just,
- 2:22:32Speaker 2: I have my three.
- 2:22:33Speaker 4: Yeah, okay.
- 2:22:34Speaker 2: My tier three is going to take everybody for, everybody's
- 2:22:36Speaker 2: going to be like, huh? But when I really started
- 2:22:39Speaker 2: to fall in love.
- 2:22:41Speaker 1: With the idea of knowing that it was a sitcom.
- 2:22:44Speaker 2: It happened for me in college when I would binge
- 2:22:46Speaker 2: this show because my brother Cody, shout out Cody, all
- 2:22:48Speaker 2: the free shout outs to the little bro, put me
- 2:22:50Speaker 2: on this show. And it is How I Met Your Mother.
- 2:22:54Speaker 2: How I Met Your Mother is one of my favorite
- 2:22:55Speaker 2: shows of all time. I thoroughly enjoyed it. It was
- 2:22:58Speaker 2: one of the first shows I binge watched. I think
- 2:23:02Speaker 2: the pub at the bottom, Will Sasso actually makes an
- 2:23:04Speaker 2: appearance in How I Met Your Mother. But what's the
- 2:23:07Speaker 2: big dog's name from Forgetting Sarah Marshall? Jason Stiegel. Yeah,
- 2:23:11Speaker 2: Jason Stiegel. I love all the characters there. I'm sticking
- 2:23:18Speaker 2: with that. I really love How I Met Your Mother.
- 2:23:19Speaker 2: That is my tier three. Wow, both friends.
- 2:23:21Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:23:21Speaker 3: And it's wild, too, because without friends, How I Met
- 2:23:23Speaker 3: Your Mother is not happening, right?
- 2:23:24Speaker 2: I agree with you. I agree with you.
- 2:23:26Speaker 3: So the premise of YouTube is The Office, so it's
- 2:23:27Speaker 3: kind of the opposite here. I don't hate it, though.
- 2:23:30Speaker 3: I think How I Met Your Mother is a phenomenal film.
- 2:23:32Speaker 3: I'm not mad at you at all.
- 2:23:34Speaker 2: Okay, good deal.
- 2:23:34Speaker 1: I really, I needed that, truthfully.
- 2:23:37Speaker 2: Because mine's going to get shit on. I don't go
- 2:23:39Speaker 2: back and watch Friends for the second time without... Binging
- 2:23:43Speaker 2: How I Met Your Mother Like Friends I would just
- 2:23:45Speaker 2: kind of watch sporadically I never kept up with it
- 2:23:47Speaker 2: to where it was like In sequence or chronological order
- 2:23:51Speaker 2: But when Cody put me on How I Met Your
- 2:23:53Speaker 2: Mother And I watched that all the way through and
- 2:23:54Speaker 2: I fucking loved it That made me go back and
- 2:23:57Speaker 2: watch chronologically The Friends So Friends wouldn't be there without
- 2:24:01Speaker 2: How I Met.
- 2:24:02Speaker 3: Your Mother Now one thing I don't like about How
- 2:24:03Speaker 3: I Met Your Mother Is it's kind of everyone has
- 2:24:05Speaker 3: their own character development But it's really based around Buddy
- 2:24:08Speaker 3: What's that dude's name? The main guy in How Much Mother,
- 2:24:11Speaker 3: since it's your tier three, you should know his name.
- 2:24:12Speaker 3: I know, but I'm more in love with Barney.
- 2:24:14Speaker 2: Yeah, Barney's all time.
- 2:24:15Speaker 1: Barney was a fucking bomb. Barney was all time. You're
- 2:24:17Speaker 1: talking about Ted. Ted.
- 2:24:19Speaker 3: I think Ted was kind of a bitch.
- 2:24:20Speaker 2: God, I thought of that.
- 2:24:20Speaker 3: Because after a couple seasons, you're like, you kind of just.
- 2:24:23Speaker 2: He's kind of like the Ross.
- 2:24:24Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's like... Always shaking me up. He kind
- 2:24:26Speaker 1: of annoyed me after a while.
- 2:24:28Speaker 4: For sure.
- 2:24:28Speaker 3: But I thought Barney kept it going. Jason Stiegel, that's
- 2:24:31Speaker 3: his name, right? Yeah. Stiegel, he did a fantastic job, too.
- 2:24:34Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:24:35Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:24:36Speaker 3: My friends is now bumped and I think yours was
- 2:24:39Speaker 3: more well-received. Mine will not be well-received.
- 2:24:41Speaker 4: Oh, wow.
- 2:24:43Speaker 2: Oh yeah. We need your two. So my tier two
- 2:24:45Speaker 2: is that 70 show. That 70s show was the first
- 2:24:50Speaker 2: show I would literally go home after high school every
- 2:24:52Speaker 2: day and watch it. Didn't matter which one was on.
- 2:24:55Speaker 2: All of the characters there, I loved them. Red Foreman,
- 2:24:57Speaker 2: Eric Foreman, Kelso, Hyde, Jackie. I loved Donna. I loved
- 2:25:03Speaker 2: them all, dude. They'd sit in a circle, understand that
- 2:25:05Speaker 2: they're all getting high, but they're not like, you know,
- 2:25:08Speaker 2: They're implying. Yeah, they're implying.
- 2:25:09Speaker 3: There's a little bit of smoke behind them.
- 2:25:12Speaker 2: But I just, I love, Eric, I'm going to put
- 2:25:14Speaker 2: my foot in your ass, the tough love, just the
- 2:25:16Speaker 2: basement vibe.
- 2:25:16Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:25:17Speaker 1: That 70s show.
- 2:25:17Speaker 3: The mom's an alcoholic.
- 2:25:18Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:25:19Speaker 2: That 70s show is like the first sitcom that I
- 2:25:21Speaker 2: just would watch over and over every day. Phenomenal. Thanks, man.
- 2:25:27Speaker 3: So, my friends is now bumped. Boys, I'm sorry you're
- 2:25:31Speaker 3: being treated the way you have today. Just know, although
- 2:25:33Speaker 3: I agree with Will, I don't agree with how he
- 2:25:34Speaker 3: handled it.
- 2:25:36Speaker 2: My tier three... we good out here boys we're straight
- 2:25:43Speaker 2: you know what i'm saying.
- 2:25:44Speaker 3: I'll get you guys back one of these days uh
- 2:25:47Speaker 3: my tier three has not been seen by a lot
- 2:25:49Speaker 3: of people and i will i've tried to put you
- 2:25:50Speaker 3: on the show so many times i think it's phenomenal
- 2:25:54Speaker 3: the show is one long run-on sentence It's based in Canada.
- 2:25:59Speaker 3: It's a small, tiny town of 5,000 people of Christian, Hicks,
- 2:26:03Speaker 3: hockey players, and skids. The dynamic is unbelievable. And the spinoff,
- 2:26:08Speaker 3: I think I would have put it in my tier talk,
- 2:26:10Speaker 3: but it's only been one season. But it fires me
- 2:26:12Speaker 3: the fuck up. That show is Letterkenny. I think that
- 2:26:16Speaker 3: show is so funny. The chirps, the way people... I
- 2:26:20Speaker 3: fucking love that show. I think it's unreal. And then
- 2:26:25Speaker 3: in that show, which will eventually probably become in my tears,
- 2:26:28Speaker 3: is a show called Shorzy, which is a spinoff of
- 2:26:30Speaker 3: a character on that show. Shorzy's a hockey player. You
- 2:26:32Speaker 3: never see his face. Jared Kizo, who is the writer
- 2:26:36Speaker 3: and director of that show, plays... One of the main
- 2:26:39Speaker 3: characters Who's quote unquote hick He also plays Shorzy who's
- 2:26:43Speaker 3: a hockey player But you never see his face the
- 2:26:45Speaker 3: whole time And all he does is just chirp They
- 2:26:48Speaker 3: made a spinoff where Jerry Kizzo's face is now seen
- 2:26:51Speaker 3: And they're in this shitty place In Canada where they're
- 2:26:54Speaker 3: playing Senior A hockey And it is, buddy if you
- 2:26:57Speaker 3: like hockey You will fucking love this show Taylor.
- 2:27:01Speaker 2: Really does Taylor really tries to put me on it
- 2:27:03Speaker 2: all the time I just haven't taken the time to
- 2:27:04Speaker 2: sit down and watch it It is so genuinely funny
- 2:27:08Speaker 2: I love it.
- 2:27:09Speaker 1: I absolutely love it. Okay, yeah, I'll check it out.
- 2:27:10Speaker 3: Yeah, Letterkenny's great, but you're going to love Shores. It's
- 2:27:12Speaker 3: only six episodes.
- 2:27:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:27:14Speaker 1: They're fast-paced.
- 2:27:15Speaker 2: They move like it's.
- 2:27:16Speaker 1: Going and going and going.
- 2:27:17Speaker 4: Where is it?
- 2:27:18Speaker 2: You can find it on Hulu.
- 2:27:20Speaker 3: Oh, I can't put it in there. It's on Hulu.
- 2:27:22Speaker 2: I was wondering if it was on like.
- 2:27:23Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not on cable. I can't put them in there.
- 2:27:27Speaker 4: Oh.
- 2:27:27Speaker 1: That's crazy. Taylor just intercepted himself.
- 2:27:30Speaker 3: Yeah, I threw the ball and I ran and caught it.
- 2:27:33Speaker 3: That was pretty impressive of me.
- 2:27:35Speaker 2: It's on Hulu.
- 2:27:35Speaker 3: I wish you didn't ask that because then I could
- 2:27:37Speaker 3: have got away with it. It's alright it would have
- 2:27:38Speaker 3: been found out eventually.
- 2:27:39Speaker 2: Maybe you can have that put into Canada where is
- 2:27:41Speaker 2: it seen Crave Crave TV which is their Hulu oh
- 2:27:45Speaker 2: okay I thought it was on like CBC maybe you
- 2:27:47Speaker 2: can put it as your honorable mention and keep them
- 2:27:49Speaker 2: friends where it is just so it gets its love
- 2:27:50Speaker 2: and then you obviously explain it on social media.
- 2:27:53Speaker 3: I'm gonna need that whole Letterkenny thing cut up though

- 2:28:41Speaker 2: fucking day, dude. Two plums for one.
- 2:28:43Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah. That is just so funny.
- 2:28:45Speaker 2: Okay, anyway.
- 2:28:46Speaker 3: That's my tier three.
- 2:28:47Speaker 1: Let the boy watch.
- 2:28:49Speaker 3: My tier two.
- 2:28:51Speaker 2: We're on the same wavelength today. That 70s show.
- 2:28:55Speaker 3: Just like Will, I would come home. That is the
- 2:28:58Speaker 3: first time I fell in love with your celebrity crush.
- 2:29:01Speaker 2: Who's your celebrity crush?
- 2:29:02Speaker 3: Kate Winslow. Winslow or Winslet?
- 2:29:04Speaker 4: Winslow.
- 2:29:05Speaker 3: I know she's on that 70 show from Titanic. The
- 2:29:08Speaker 3: first boobs I saw, she was the first boobs I
- 2:29:10Speaker 3: saw in that really.
- 2:29:10Speaker 1: Whoa.
- 2:29:11Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:29:11Speaker 3: This is what the world's like. That's incredible. The first
- 2:29:14Speaker 3: girl I fell in love with was Jackie.
- 2:29:17Speaker 1: Oh my God.
- 2:29:18Speaker 3: She was unbelievable. Mila Kunis has since then been my
- 2:29:21Speaker 3: celebrity crush. Don't care how old she gets.
- 2:29:23Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:29:23Speaker 3: She's just outstanding in my opinion. I hope I never
- 2:29:25Speaker 3: meet her. I hope I never do.
- 2:29:27Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:29:27Speaker 3: I don't want to get let down.
- 2:29:29Speaker 5: You know?
- 2:29:29Speaker 3: I don't want to be let down.
- 2:29:31Speaker 2: Isn't it fucking awesome that Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher
- 2:29:33Speaker 2: got married?
- 2:29:34Speaker 3: Unbelievable. And I love Ashton Kutcher. I fucking love Ashton Kutcher.
- 2:29:38Speaker 2: The whole dynamic between everybody, it's just, it's outstanding, dude.
- 2:29:43Speaker 3: It's such a great show. That 70s show is my
- 2:29:46Speaker 3: tier two. I'm proud of these. I'm proud of all
- 2:29:49Speaker 3: these right now.
- 2:29:50Speaker 2: What would you want to bump?
- 2:29:55Speaker 4: I'm going to need to bump that 70s show to two.
- 2:29:58Speaker 4: and do three now.
- 2:30:00Speaker 2: Okay. What was your three?
- 2:30:02Speaker 9: Well, it was that 70 show, and then I did
- 2:30:04Speaker 9: Eastbound and Down. Y'all said no for some reason.
- 2:30:06Speaker 2: He said no. He said no.
- 2:30:07Speaker 4: Will said no.
- 2:30:08Speaker 1: What was your tier two the second time around?
- 2:30:10Speaker 4: I haven't done it yet.
- 2:30:11Speaker 2: Okay, okay, okay.
- 2:30:13Speaker 1: Go ahead, Kim.
- 2:30:14Speaker 2: Proceed.
- 2:30:16Speaker 9: All right, so now that I'm bumping that 70 show
- 2:30:18Speaker 9: to two, my tier three is going to be two
- 2:30:20Speaker 9: and a half men.
- 2:30:21Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:30:23Speaker 9: That was one that I felt like I was young
- 2:30:25Speaker 9: and didn't understand, but I've gone back and watched them
- 2:30:27Speaker 9: and it's just, I don't know why, but it makes
- 2:30:29Speaker 9: me laugh so hard. It's a random one, but it's
- 2:30:32Speaker 9: one that like, I didn't really watch a bunch, but
- 2:30:35Speaker 9: it's one of those.
- 2:30:38Speaker 4: All right.
- 2:30:38Speaker 1: All right, boys.
- 2:30:41Speaker 4: All right.
- 2:30:42Speaker 1: The tier one. Now we're at number one.
- 2:30:45Speaker 7: My tier one is Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. They got
- 2:30:50Speaker 7: it all in there, and especially the scene when his
- 2:30:54Speaker 7: dad is going to take him on a trip, and
- 2:30:57Speaker 7: then his dad bails at the last moment, and he's crying.
- 2:30:59Speaker 2: With Uncle Phil. He's like, you know what? I don't
- 2:31:01Speaker 2: need him.
- 2:31:02Speaker 1: I taught myself how to drive, taught myself how to
- 2:31:04Speaker 1: shoot a basketball.
- 2:31:05Speaker 2: The hell with him.
- 2:31:07Speaker 4: Why he don't love me, man?
- 2:31:08Speaker 3: Oh, I teared up just now.
- 2:31:10Speaker 2: Yeah. Year one.
- 2:31:12Speaker 4: Year one.
- 2:31:12Speaker 1: Jazz, Carlton, and Viv.
- 2:31:15Speaker 7: And Viv spoke at our graduation in college as well.
- 2:31:17Speaker 1: So year one, Fresh Prince.
- 2:31:20Speaker 2: That was a good one.
- 2:31:22Speaker 5: To me, the office, though, is God tier, so it
- 2:31:24Speaker 5: doesn't even deserve to be on the list. And I
- 2:31:26Speaker 5: agree with Steve with the U.K. office really setting the
- 2:31:31Speaker 5: playing field for everyone. But I think the office is
- 2:31:33Speaker 5: God tier.
- 2:31:34Speaker 2: You're one right there?
- 2:31:35Speaker 7: No.
- 2:31:35Speaker 1: Don't be talking.
- 2:31:36Speaker 3: Don't you fucking talk like that.
- 2:31:38Speaker 5: But my number one, and this probably won't catch a
- 2:31:41Speaker 5: ton of eyes, but for me, it's Workaholics. Oh my god,
- 2:31:46Speaker 5: I forgot about Workaholics. It's my guilty pleasure show.
- 2:31:50Speaker 2: I put it on.
- 2:31:51Speaker 5: I just throw it on in the background and just
- 2:31:54Speaker 5: let it play. So yeah. Number one, tier one, Workaholics.
- 2:31:58Speaker 1: You're struggling with that one. Damn, bro.
- 2:32:02Speaker 2: I knew this was going to happen.
- 2:32:03Speaker 3: This is why I like to go last.
- 2:32:06Speaker 2: My number one.
- 2:32:07Speaker 1: Is also workaholics.
- 2:32:08Speaker 9: Like, it is, like, where I get my humor, it's just,
- 2:32:12Speaker 9: it's done everything I've needed it to do. And you
- 2:32:16Speaker 9: just put it on repeat. I think I'm on season
- 2:32:19Speaker 9: four again for, like, the 20th time. It's just so good.
- 2:32:24Speaker 2: That's fucking....
- 2:32:26Speaker 3: Obviously, that wasn't received the same way, Garrett, but you know.
- 2:32:29Speaker 3: He just said it, so it was phenomenal picks, boys.
- 2:32:33Speaker 4: I'm a little insulted no one put Sullivan and Son
- 2:32:35Speaker 4: in Any other top three.
- 2:32:39Speaker 2: Is that your tier one?
- 2:32:40Speaker 1: No, no, no.
- 2:32:42Speaker 4: I was on my own show and it's not in
- 2:32:43Speaker 4: my top three. My top one, my tier one, Married
- 2:32:48Speaker 4: with Children. I fucking love Married with Children. And you
- 2:32:51Speaker 4: got to remember at a time, sitcoms were very traditional, right?
- 2:32:56Speaker 4: It was the Cosby show. It was kind of, you know, cheers.
- 2:33:00Speaker 4: But then you got Fox, this brand new network that's
- 2:33:03Speaker 4: coming out and they put this sitcom on where they
- 2:33:06Speaker 4: just said anything they fucking want. That show was almost
- 2:33:09Speaker 4: like the internet before the internet. You have characters saying
- 2:33:12Speaker 4: things that are so outlandish and insulting and making like
- 2:33:17Speaker 4: a mockery caricatures of like, your typical housewife, Peg's constantly smoking.
- 2:33:22Speaker 4: Al Bundy's got his hand in his pants and he
- 2:33:24Speaker 4: just wants to read Biggins or go to Biggins the
- 2:33:28Speaker 4: strip club with his group of guys and the neighbors
- 2:33:31Speaker 4: and they treat their kids like shit and the kids
- 2:33:34Speaker 4: treat their parents like shit. You'd never seen anything like
- 2:33:36Speaker 4: it before. I fucking love that show. And Ed O'Neill
- 2:33:39Speaker 4: in that show is the, I mean, when he's in
- 2:33:41Speaker 4: the shoe store, And, and, and like women are coming out,
- 2:33:45Speaker 4: like big obese women taking their shit. And he's shitting
- 2:33:48Speaker 4: on them and making fun of them. Like, Oh, keep
- 2:33:49Speaker 4: your shoe on, please get out of that. You know,
- 2:33:51Speaker 4: he had so many great lines. I live and die
- 2:33:54Speaker 4: by that show. If that show is ever on, I just,
- 2:33:56Speaker 4: I don't move.
- 2:33:57Speaker 2: I love it.
- 2:33:57Speaker 4: It's great.
- 2:33:58Speaker 2: Yeah. I've never watched it.
- 2:34:00Speaker 4: You've never seen.
- 2:34:00Speaker 2: No, I never have brother. But I love the way
- 2:34:03Speaker 2: you explain it I can listen to you talk about
- 2:34:06Speaker 2: anything The lines in.
- 2:34:09Speaker 4: That show The caricatures Really it's like It's about masculinity
- 2:34:16Speaker 4: Because Al Bundy Is like your typical American male He
- 2:34:20Speaker 4: wants to drink beer His wife annoys him Every time
- 2:34:23Speaker 4: his wife wants sex he's got a line He's like
- 2:34:25Speaker 4: Peg I'd rather do XYZ than have sex with you
- 2:34:28Speaker 4: And his daughter's a whore Christina Ablegate's an absolute whore.
- 2:34:33Speaker 1: Hey, which makes that 70s show a good one, too.
- 2:34:35Speaker 2: The Sister. Yeah, The Sister. Ted Bundy.
- 2:34:38Speaker 4: Not Ted Bundy, but Bud Bundy's always jerking off. There's
- 2:34:42Speaker 4: all these masturbation. It's like, again, like you got it.
- 2:34:44Speaker 4: It's like a time capsule in time. You'd never see
- 2:34:46Speaker 4: anything like it, but they still hold up. If you
- 2:34:50Speaker 4: get a chance, watch an episode in the middle of
- 2:34:53Speaker 4: like their runs. The first season or two, they were
- 2:34:55Speaker 4: still defining their voice as a show. But it is hilarious.
- 2:34:59Speaker 1: Laugh out loud lines. That writer's room must have been like,
- 2:35:03Speaker 1: I don't think they ever were like, oh, you can't
- 2:35:05Speaker 1: do that.
- 2:35:05Speaker 4: That's too far. That's how crazy the lines were on
- 2:35:08Speaker 4: that show.
- 2:35:09Speaker 1: Married with children.
- 2:35:10Speaker 3: Is the dad on that show, is he the grandpa
- 2:35:12Speaker 3: in Modern Family?
- 2:35:13Speaker 7: Yes.
- 2:35:13Speaker 2: Okay, that's okay. And what a great actor.
- 2:35:15Speaker 1: Great show as well, Modern Family. Two totally different characters.
- 2:35:19Speaker 1: He's great.
- 2:35:19Speaker 2: That show's awesome.
- 2:35:20Speaker 3: And the dad in Modern Family is also phenomenal. All-time character.
- 2:35:23Speaker 3: Married with children. You never heard of Married with Children?
- 2:35:26Speaker 2: No, I haven't.
- 2:35:27Speaker 3: Dude, when I was in middle school, when I was
- 2:35:30Speaker 3: in middle school, I got grounded from, not middle school,
- 2:35:32Speaker 3: elementary school. I got grounded from cartoons. I wasn't allowed
- 2:35:35Speaker 3: to watch cartoons. So on channel 51, there was TV Land.
- 2:35:39Speaker 3: And TV Land played all the older ones. So I
- 2:35:42Speaker 3: started watching Cosby Show, Married with Children, all that stuff, dude.
- 2:35:45Speaker 1: It was awesome. Dude, that show came out in 87?
- 2:35:47Speaker 8: 87.
- 2:35:47Speaker 1: It ran for like, I don't know when. Your list
- 2:35:51Speaker 1: might not play well on Twitter, but you might do
- 2:35:53Speaker 1: numbers on Facebook.
- 2:35:54Speaker 4: 47 years old. So I don't, I mean, I, I don't,
- 2:36:02Speaker 4: I own my age.
- 2:36:03Speaker 1: I don't care.
- 2:36:04Speaker 4: At least I'm not great. I love Lucy, you know,
- 2:36:07Speaker 4: happy days.
- 2:36:09Speaker 5: Yeah, dude.
- 2:36:10Speaker 2: So my, my, are you ready? Yeah, I'm ready for my,
- 2:36:13Speaker 2: I've been excited. This was actually the one I thought
- 2:36:15Speaker 2: about because. I watch it so casually, and I think
- 2:36:18Speaker 2: it is timeless.
- 2:36:19Speaker 4: You're getting booked for this?
- 2:36:20Speaker 2: I'm nervous. It's a shout to the Tiger Blood King himself,
- 2:36:24Speaker 2: Charlie Sheen, Two and a Half Men.
- 2:36:26Speaker 1: Number one. Yes.
- 2:36:28Speaker 2: I can watch it. I still watch it. I watch
- 2:36:30Speaker 2: it now. When it's on, I go on Two and
- 2:36:33Speaker 2: a Half Men. It can be background noise. It is
- 2:36:34Speaker 2: my favorite show. I was so sad when they stopped
- 2:36:37Speaker 2: running him or they went into the Ashton Kutcher. I
- 2:36:39Speaker 2: didn't think that Two and a Half Men was that
- 2:36:41Speaker 2: good at all. but the Charlie Sheen Two and a
- 2:36:43Speaker 2: Half Men, dude, is my favorite shit. I would watch it.
- 2:36:47Speaker 1: I think it's timeless.
- 2:36:48Speaker 2: I think I'll watch it forever. As long as they're
- 2:36:49Speaker 2: running them on TV, I'm watching it. Two and a
- 2:36:51Speaker 2: Half Men.
- 2:36:52Speaker 3: Yeah, I was impressed with the way you reacted when
- 2:36:54Speaker 3: Two and a Half Men was brought up.
- 2:36:56Speaker 2: Dude, I was like, when he, because Lil Keegar took
- 2:36:58Speaker 2: a couple from me. I think we know who's making
- 2:37:02Speaker 2: the list. What do you mean?
- 2:37:03Speaker 4: Up there.
- 2:37:04Speaker 3: Because we're taking one, right?
- 2:37:05Speaker 2: Yeah, we're taking one from each for sure.
- 2:37:07Speaker 3: Like, no no no we're taking i thought we're taking

- 2:37:37Speaker 2: yo I could fucking watch TV with this motherfucker yeah
- 2:37:41Speaker 2: I mean I don't really know we would have a
- 2:37:42Speaker 2: great time not saying a word to each other and
- 2:37:45Speaker 2: kind of like looking over each other like you like
- 2:37:47Speaker 2: this too That would be love. I know you got
- 2:37:50Speaker 2: a good friend, too, is when you sit in.
- 2:37:51Speaker 3: A room and just don't even talk.
- 2:37:52Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't have to talk.
- 2:37:53Speaker 3: There's no like, hey, we got to say something to
- 2:37:55Speaker 3: each other. You go and sit there and watch TV,
- 2:37:57Speaker 3: stare at your phones, and you're cool with it. That's
- 2:38:00Speaker 3: a friend right there. Eventually, you're like, I think I'm
- 2:38:03Speaker 3: going to head home.

- 2:38:09Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 2:38:09Speaker 1: Two and a half minutes, though.
- 2:38:11Speaker 2: That's a solid one. You know what I thought of too?
- 2:38:14Speaker 2: I don't think you're going to say it. So I'll just,
- 2:38:15Speaker 2: if I may, I have a third honorable mention. I'm
- 2:38:17Speaker 2: just fucking around. My man is crazy. What I was
- 2:38:20Speaker 2: thinking of is a King of Queens. I really, I
- 2:38:23Speaker 2: always like enjoy that show.
- 2:38:24Speaker 3: It was an enjoyable show. I don't think it was
- 2:38:25Speaker 3: going to make the tears.
- 2:38:26Speaker 2: It wouldn't make the tears.
- 2:38:27Speaker 1: No, but a good, like you kind of grin and right.
- 2:38:31Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:38:31Speaker 1: Let me go see what Kevin James is up to.
- 2:38:33Speaker 1: All right.
- 2:38:35Speaker 2: My tier one.
- 2:38:37Speaker 3: Uh, it got me right here because every single time
- 2:38:40Speaker 3: I would watch a show having some girl, I don't
- 2:38:42Speaker 3: know why, but if I was having some girl problems,
- 2:38:45Speaker 3: if I was going through a breakup or I was
- 2:38:46Speaker 3: just a little down, I would put this show on.
- 2:38:48Speaker 1: I would just watch her for hours.
- 2:38:49Speaker 3: It made me feel so warm and fuzzy watching the
- 2:38:53Speaker 3: trials and tribulations of this young gentleman work through becoming
- 2:38:56Speaker 3: a doctor and going through love, figuring out with people,
- 2:38:59Speaker 3: what are we going to do left and right? I
- 2:39:01Speaker 3: will watch the show whenever it's on. You put it
- 2:39:03Speaker 3: on now and it's a little cheese. It's a little
- 2:39:05Speaker 3: cheesy if you put it on now, but it's so fire.
- 2:39:08Speaker 3: And that show is Scrubs.
- 2:39:10Speaker 2: I think that show is all fucking time.
- 2:39:13Speaker 1: That's my boy Logan's favorite show.
- 2:39:18Speaker 4: Really?
- 2:39:18Speaker 2: I think that show is so good. Brown Bear. My buddy.
- 2:39:22Speaker 3: That's who he's named after. My nickname for him.
- 2:39:25Speaker 2: But anyway.
- 2:39:27Speaker 1: That Brown Bear's on the show of Scrubs?
- 2:39:28Speaker 2: Brown Bear, yes.
- 2:39:30Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:39:30Speaker 5: J.D.
- 2:39:31Speaker 3: Is the main character. His best friend is Brown Bear,
- 2:39:34Speaker 3: who's the, yeah, who's Petey.
- 2:39:36Speaker 2: From Remember the Titans. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 2:39:39Speaker 3: His character is unbelievable. But they just, dude, that's an
- 2:39:42Speaker 3: all-time show. It warms my heart every single time I
- 2:39:45Speaker 3: watch it.
- 2:39:45Speaker 1: I love it.
- 2:39:47Speaker 3: The head doctor, Dr. Cox, his rants going in on J.D.
- 2:39:52Speaker 3: was just all-time. Dude, that guy's so fucking funny. I
- 2:39:55Speaker 3: absolutely love that show.
- 2:39:57Speaker 2: No Golden Girls.
- 2:39:59Speaker 1: Not one mention of Golden Girls.
- 2:40:00Speaker 2: Golden Girls.
- 2:40:01Speaker 1: You ever watch it?
- 2:40:03Speaker 2: I've never actually seen Golden Girls either. Really? Solid.
- 2:40:05Speaker 4: Pretty funny.
- 2:40:06Speaker 2: Holds up.
- 2:40:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 2:40:07Speaker 2: Really?
- 2:40:08Speaker 4: One of the classics that you'll just be flipping through
- 2:40:10Speaker 4: channels and it's on its way.
- 2:40:11Speaker 1: Betty White?
- 2:40:13Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:40:14Speaker 4: Betty White, Bea Arthur.
- 2:40:15Speaker 2: There's a lot of greats out there. A lot of
- 2:40:18Speaker 2: greats out there.
- 2:40:19Speaker 1: That's why it's tiered.
- 2:40:20Speaker 9: The sitcoms, I think, also what helps the sitcom game
- 2:40:24Speaker 9: is their songs. Like that intro song, like every time
- 2:40:27Speaker 9: it comes on, you're like, ooh, like I'm.
- 2:40:29Speaker 1: Not hitting skip.
- 2:40:32Speaker 4: But like the sitcom songs, like the intro songs were
- 2:40:35Speaker 4: just perfect.
- 2:40:36Speaker 2: Hey, I was thinking about God Tier.
- 2:40:38Speaker 3: I think, you know, we put Wedding Crashers at God
- 2:40:40Speaker 3: Tier for our rom-coms. If we all, if our tier
- 2:40:44Speaker 3: ones are all the same, automatic God Tier. And so
- 2:40:46Speaker 3: that one goes, transcends, and then our tier twos become
- 2:40:49Speaker 3: tier ones, tier threes too, and then we get one more.
- 2:40:52Speaker 2: An honorable mention makes it up. How do we figure
- 2:40:54Speaker 2: that out though?
- 2:40:56Speaker 3: If that's how it's God tier, dude.
- 2:40:57Speaker 4: Okay.
- 2:40:57Speaker 2: All right. You know what I'm saying?
- 2:40:58Speaker 3: It would be, but we would all sit here and
- 2:41:00Speaker 3: say best rom-com and we'd all, for us, I don't
- 2:41:03Speaker 3: know what it'd be for you. I love, I don't know.
- 2:41:05Speaker 2: I love Lucy's the sitcom, but you know what I'm saying?
- 2:41:09Speaker 1: You know the joke I'm trying.
- 2:41:10Speaker 3: To present to you right now, but Wedding Crashers was
- 2:41:13Speaker 3: by far number one.
- 2:41:14Speaker 1: I just think it's slick that, so who are we
- 2:41:16Speaker 1: picking back there for the list?
- 2:41:17Speaker 2: My vote would be Garrett. My vote is also Garrett.
- 2:41:19Speaker 2: All right. Settled.
- 2:41:21Speaker 1: Wow, this is the longest I've ever been.
- 2:41:24Speaker 2: On a podcast.
- 2:41:25Speaker 1: This is fucking great.
- 2:41:26Speaker 4: Thank you, guys.
- 2:41:27Speaker 2: How did you feel about the tear talk? Were you
- 2:41:28Speaker 2: getting bored listening to us? No, we were super into it,
- 2:41:31Speaker 2: but I was kind of thinking.
- 2:41:32Speaker 4: What I like hearing is how you break it down.
- 2:41:36Speaker 4: And how you break down... When you did the Friends rant,
- 2:41:38Speaker 4: I was like, oh my god, I bet if you
- 2:41:40Speaker 4: took that sound clip and sent it to somebody that
- 2:41:43Speaker 4: wrote on Friends, they'd be fucking over the moon. It
- 2:41:47Speaker 4: was so fun to see how you broke it down.
- 2:41:49Speaker 4: And then your take on I think your third was
- 2:41:53Speaker 4: really cool.
- 2:41:53Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 2:41:54Speaker 4: It's funny to hear how people perceive the show and
- 2:41:57Speaker 4: what it means to them.
- 2:41:58Speaker 1: You know, I liked it. I had fun.
- 2:42:00Speaker 3: It's a great way to go turn off your brain.
- 2:42:03Speaker 4: Exactly. Yeah.
- 2:42:05Speaker 1: That's a pro vibe.
- 2:42:07Speaker 4: That's why it was funny.
- 2:42:07Speaker 1: I was talking to the guys on Impractical Jokers. That's
- 2:42:09Speaker 1: why their show works.
- 2:42:10Speaker 4: Do you know why?
- 2:42:11Speaker 1: Because their laugh is their laugh track.
- 2:42:13Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 2:42:14Speaker 1: Which I never put together. I was like, that's fucking brilliant.
- 2:42:16Speaker 2: Yeah, it's smart. That show is so damn funny.
- 2:42:18Speaker 3: Now, why did they break up? Are they done doing
- 2:42:20Speaker 3: their thing or?
- 2:42:21Speaker 4: No, three of them are still doing it. Joe just
- 2:42:24Speaker 4: stepped away. I think he's, you know.
- 2:42:26Speaker 1: Seems like we should have Joe on. I could talk
- 2:42:30Speaker 1: to Joe.
- 2:42:30Speaker 3: Sounds like you got a big trifecta ahead of you.
- 2:42:33Speaker 3: Dane Cook, which we'll probably put that in the probably
- 2:42:35Speaker 3: not category. The Vince Vaughn we'll put in the probably category.
- 2:42:39Speaker 3: And then Joe, we'll see how the rest of this
- 2:42:41Speaker 3: conversation goes.
- 2:42:42Speaker 4: If Dane came out here to play, I'm sure he'd
- 2:42:44Speaker 4: do it. Because he's doing a lot more podcasts. Vince,
- 2:42:47Speaker 4: I'm sure I'll talk to him the next day or so.
- 2:42:48Speaker 4: And then Gatto I'll talk to. Just you call and
- 2:42:53Speaker 4: we take the phone and we're like, hey, you want
- 2:42:55Speaker 4: to come on?
- 2:42:57Speaker 2: What's up, sweetheart? Uh-oh. Uh-oh.
- 2:43:02Speaker 1: I'm still sitting on the bus with Steve Byrne, Taylor,
- 2:43:04Speaker 1: and all the boys.
- 2:43:05Speaker 2: We are just now wrapping up. Your boy will be
- 2:43:10Speaker 2: home as fast as possible. We just got done with
- 2:43:16Speaker 2: our tear talk.
- 2:43:16Speaker 1: How's Rue doing? Is Rue being a little nightmare?
- 2:43:18Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 2:43:23Speaker 3: Man, imagine being married to Will, where, like, you think
- 2:43:25Speaker 3: every conversation you have might be, like, recorded or tweeted about.
- 2:43:28Speaker 3: You know, Charles, they're like, yeah, she's being fine. It's
- 2:43:31Speaker 3: not that big of a deal.
- 2:43:32Speaker 2: She legit thinks she's on speakerphone right now.
- 2:43:36Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm, like, sitting here with Steve and Taylor.
- 2:43:37Speaker 2: She's like, okay, you know. Do your thing. Things are great, yeah.
- 2:43:40Speaker 2: Stay as long as you want. She just made a
- 2:43:42Speaker 2: text on the side. Get your ass home. Yeah, you
- 2:43:44Speaker 2: know I was fucking around, right? Oh. Just for the audio.

- 2:44:30Speaker 3: I had a hiccup, not because of the engine, but
