  Speaker 1: Yeah, the first one. But you weren't living out here yet.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: You were still in.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: You have a good memory. Florida, yeah.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: I remember meeting you and you were like, I think
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: that you were thinking about moving out here. Yes. And
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: I was like, I hope you do.
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: Oh my... And she's the reason I'm here.
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: We chatted on the patio out in the garden.
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: Holy crap.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: And I was so excited. I was like, he seems
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: super nice. Yeah. I hope you do move out here.
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: Thank you. And I made the move. And I'm excited
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: to be here.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: And... You are a fabulous addition to the Phoenix scene.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Thank you.
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: Truly. I'm not just saying that because we're sitting out
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: front here at Mic Drop in Chandler. But you are.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: You host a really fun show, and you're actually hosting
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: it in like an hour and a half here.
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm excited about it. It's called Be Funny, and
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: it's a comedy spelling bee. Yes. Yeah, super exciting. So
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: what happens is comics spell a word. If they misspell
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: the word, they need to put it in their set.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: It's been really cool. We've been here. We've been at
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Mic Drop for almost a year. We've been running a
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: show for almost a year and a half. So we
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: got to Mic Drop pretty fast, which is exciting.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: And our first viral clip just hit. We just got
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: almost 10 million views across all socials.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah. That's awesome.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: I'm really excited.
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: I noticed that I won one of the Spelling Bees.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: Yes, you did.
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: And I don't know if you've ever shared my clip.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: This is actually a confrontation.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: Oh, I've been set up. I've been bamboozled.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm like, meet me. It's on site, John Boyd.
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: All the footage from all the Spelling Bees will be
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: on YouTube very, very shortly. Okay. I think the hard
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: part for me and what's been great about the scene
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: is meeting that level of quality and excellence.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: And that's what we always strive for. So if it's, like,
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: not perfect, I won't put it out.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Are you saying that my set was not perfect? No, no, no.
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: I think it was perfect. I think the edit that
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: we need to make isn't perfect yet. So it will
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: be there, and I promise you it will be on
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: YouTube soon. YouTube soon.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm very proud of my little spelling bee award.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I do have it up on my shelf with some other, like,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: comedy things. You know, like some comedy albums and some stuff.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: And then I think you told me you got it
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: from like Timu or something. But I was very proud
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: of it. I was like, look at me.
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: You were really good at the spell. What's funny is
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: most comics stink at it. But you were really good
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: and funny. So thank you for doing it.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: It's a very fun show. I feel like everybody has
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: a good time with it. And I can tell you
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: guys have a lot of fun with it.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a blast.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: You have your co-host?
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: Yeah, my co-host, Sean Smith.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: He also, you can tell he's having a good time.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: He's having a blast. Yeah.
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: So during the show, comics, are you doing it tonight
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: where they get to, like, spin the wheel? Yeah. So
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: what are some of the things? Tell people if they
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: haven't checked the show out. Yeah.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: So there are a bunch of things you can do
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: on the wheel. Oh, there's a bunch of things you
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: can do on the wheel. So, like, if you misspell
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: a word, you have to spin the wheel. And then
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: there are various things. So you have to, like, do
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: a confession. You have to spit your game, which, like,
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Tell us your favorite pickup line. You have to spell
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: the word backwards. You have to phone a friend. That's
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: my favorite one. Where you got to call your mom
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: and see if they can help you spell it. It's
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: a lot of fun.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Do you have some favorite moments from the show? I'm
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: sure just like comics trying to spell. Would you say, like,
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: are you guys, when you're looking for words, are you
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: like looking at like, okay, seventh grade reading level? Because
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: some of them are challenging. Some of them for sure
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: are like. not ordinary words.
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we try our hardest to put the most tricky
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: words that we can, because we recognize that comics have
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: a big ego, and also they're dumb, so it's like...
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: So I'm all in for the chaos.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Okay, watch it though, because you've got to do trivia
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: here in a little bit. Oh, well, yeah.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: I'm going to miss every trivia word.
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: I'm going to make you spell the answers, too.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: Ironically enough, I'm the worst speller.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: I was going to ask if you were a good speller.
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, no. I remember in seventh grade, I
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: was one of the first people out of the spelling
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: bee for the word conscious.
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's a tough word, though.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: It's a tricky word, right? But then that just deflated me,
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: so I just never learned how to spell.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: I think I got out of the spelling bee, the
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: word government. I missed the end. Yeah. And I still
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: hate the government. That's the, that's my origin story. It's
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: been bullshit since then. I think that was like fourth grade. Um,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: that's great. Um, So have you seen some good, like,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: meltdowns from comics trying to spell words?
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: I've seen some good meltdowns. Last time at Mic Drop,
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: Chase took his pants off. Chase Harder, he took his
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: pants off. That video is coming soon.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: Is that the viral clip?
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: Because I feel like that.
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: It will be. I feel like that has the opportunity.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: It will be. And one of my favorite comedians locally,
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: his name's Anwar Newton. We did a phone a friend
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: challenge and he called his son. And it was like
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: the cutest thing. And then at the end of it,
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: he says, spell this word so daddy can come home.
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: And it just like broke the room.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: That's so cute.
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know how old his little one is. He
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: talks about his little one. Yeah.
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Like he's a baby.
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: That's adorable. Yeah.
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: It's really cool.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: I love that. So you were here a few years
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: ago as a comic. Yeah. On the festival. And it
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: sounds like you were pretty new to comedy then, right?
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: Because you said you've only been.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: My three-year anniversary is in like two or three weeks.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: So when you were here at Big Pine, you were
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: only like a little bit into... Hell yeah.
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: And that's what I liked about Big Pine because it's
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: open to like the local comedians. So I was able
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: to just like walk in. soak up all the game,
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: talk to a bunch of different comedians, watch all the panels,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: eat food with the comedians. And I think that, in
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: a combination with our conversations, that kind of gave me
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: the confidence to pursue this. And I've been having fun
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: ever since.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: So you were still in Gainesville?
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: Tampa.
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: Tampa, Florida.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was in Tampa. Okay.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: We got a local comic trying to, what's he, he's dancing?
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. He's touching his nipples. It was weird.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: It made me uncomfortable. His name is Jason Santiago.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Yeah. We'll tag him. Yeah. He's on a list somewhere probably.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Is he on the show later or something?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. I think he's just here to
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: touch his nipples around people.
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: It's weird. Are you hoping to check out some of
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: the panels this weekend? Yeah.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: I saw that Nate Jackson is coming, and that's very,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: very exciting. He's one of my favorite comedians.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah. So I want to definitely check that one out.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I missed the one today, but I'm going to be
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: available tomorrow. There's so much good stuff going on. That's
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: one of my favorite things about this is all of that.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: We were talking about it with another comic I read.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: I just saw it was passing by, and she was like,
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: I was at all of them this morning, like, taking notes.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Because there's so much good stuff.
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: Honestly.
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: And people so willing to, like, share information. Yeah.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: And, like, I just like the way that they curate
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: the list of comics. Because I've been to a couple
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: of different festivals, and I've actually been a part of festivals.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: And this, by far, is, like, the most friendly, the
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: best comics. Everybody's cool. Like, I really do enjoy it.
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah. Yeah. Do you want to talk shit about anyone?
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, right now. I'm still trying to get
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: past those different clubs, but not yet. Give me like
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: three more years. Well, that's the people you don't like.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: One thing we can complain about, the heat. It's tough.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: It's tough.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Not as bad as a few years ago, though, when
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: the festival was in September. I felt bad for some
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: traveling comics.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: They were like in real cute. They had their outfits
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: and it was like a hundred.
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: 30 minutes later.
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Just melting like 115 degrees. And I'm like, This

• 8:11
  Speaker 1: went in the bathroom with one sweaty armpit. I'm like,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: this is not a good way to make a good impression.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.

  Speaker 2: I'm going to be honest. I can't name one Indiana Jones.
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: Not one? Not one.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: Like, in my brain, I wanted to say, like, Indiana
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: Jones and the Sorcerer's Stone. But that's like Harry Potter, right?
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: And the Garden of Eden. But Eden, he's not Christian.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: I don't know. And the Sorcerer's Stone. My answer is five.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: That's a really good answer because that's the correct answer. Ding, ding, ding.
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I know I started a little too high. I should
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: have been like, are there three, four, or five? But
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: I was like, who has six movies? Like, Star Wars and....

• 11:40
  Speaker 2: nerd guy, but like... Here we go. I don't know
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: if we count green, but I'm just going to go
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: with the 1993 movie. So that's yellow, black, red, blue, pink.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: I don't... See, that's... The movie had white, but then
