• 5:29
  Speaker 2: Have you heard about, this is really cool, the new
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: program that a lot of theaters are adopting where you
• 5:33

• 5:43
  Speaker 2: to see this and this and this.
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: One dude told me, he goes, yeah, sometimes there's little
• 5:49

• 5:51

• 6:07
  Speaker 1: coming out too in july.
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: Yeah spider-man spider-man.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: A brand new day like a new spider-man nice it's
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: funny tom holland's in two in july that are Blockbusters. Yeah.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: It's weird how that happens.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: And it feels like they were working on them at
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: the same time, which, you know, the schedule was like
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: staggered and one took probably like years and one was
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: like a six month.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: Production run or whatever. Yeah. You know, it's funny, too.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: It sucks that we're in that podcast. That podcast is
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: so good. Because we're also talking about stand-up science.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: We still have that.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, because I was thinking about how you're good.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: You're such good insight, too, on stand-up comedy that you have.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: And same with the sketch. Because the way you were
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: talking about how– I'm sorry. I don't even want to
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: say it. I want you to say it. Yeah. No, no.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: That's okay. Help me out. No, because you were talking
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: about how sketch and– because when I first started, people
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: were– it was a battlefield.
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: People are a little judgy about it sometimes. And really,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: they coincide and mingle a lot. And we had talked
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: about the cool thing about stand-up is it's really combining
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: all these things that are prevalent in film, which is
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: when you're doing it, you are the writer, actor, director, editor,
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: producer of show, whatever. And you get to combine all
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: these skills in a live space, which is cool. So
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: they really coincide, and a lot of those skills are,
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: you know, they co-mingle, which is really cool.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and we're also talking, too, like, how, like, you know,
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: your arsenal, like, why wouldn't you want to use all
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: the colors of comedy in order to put out the
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: best product?
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: Right, and there's this tension with improvisers and stand-ups, and
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: I have a theory about this, about why there's that
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: tension between I think that they both want to do
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: what the other does.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: Uh-huh.
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: They're just afraid.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I think it's like, this is just how I feel. Uh,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: so I won't say that. No, I, I kind of,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: I hear it, but I, I hear how they talk
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: about each other and I'm like, you're just jealous. Like you,
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: and a lot of people will be open. They're like,
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: I could never do that. And I'm like, yes, you can.
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: You just are afraid of doing it. And that's okay.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Cause it's like, if you don't have an interest in
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: it or don't want to, that's fine.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: But I think that both can benefit from each other.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think I agree. And I think too, also like,
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: I think with the standup comics, but especially with like the,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: with the, cause the improv, they're like, they don't want
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: to share the shine. Yeah. I find that be, I
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: find that the ego is too big. I don't want,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: there's this stage isn't big enough for both of us
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: type of thing. That's why it's so hard for.
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: There's so much that goes into it. I think sometimes, uh,
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: standups don't want to rely on other people, which is
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: why they chose this form of.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And, They don't even want people to know that
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: they have writers.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: Performing, yeah.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Type shit, yeah.
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: Totally, exactly.
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: It's one of those things.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: And I don't want you to outshine me. If I'm
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: the straight man, what if I don't get recognized? Right.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And it's like, oh. And the comics that can do
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: the straight man, it's like, oh, man, he's great.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: It's so fun to watch. We were talking about David
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: Spade to Chris Farley and how it's amazing to watch
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: Chris Farley, but watching David Spade Just be that person.
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: It takes a good actor to do that, you know?
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: It's that they both make each other work. Without the other,
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: it wouldn't be as impactful, you know?
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: And the thing, too, like, you may not see that
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: person instantly, but over time, you're going to start recognizing that.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: You're going to be like, you know what? Like, yeah,
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: Farley or, like, the other person, that was a loud sound,
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: but if we just, after it all dissipated, this person
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: was still around, and they were still... Now, think about it.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: They're really funny, actually. That is such a good... Look
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: how they're just waiting patiently and then just a good bar. Boom, boom, boom.
• 9:52
  Speaker 2: And they're physically reacting to this other person. They're not
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: even talking, but they're just, you know, they're so inside
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: their character that... they are just physically embodying it. And
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: that's funny in and of itself.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: I love that.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: You're like, oh, I can feel how they're feeling.
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm them. Yeah. I can see myself a lot
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: in them. I could never be that guy. I would
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: love to be that guy.
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: And then you also feel for the heel because you
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: can sometimes.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: Be a heel. And you're like, oh, my God.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Like, I get that pain that they're in.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: It also reminds me of Fight Club. Yeah. Yeah. Right.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: That movie was nuts. 99. I think that came out
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: in 99, too.
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: Totally. Yeah.
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: It was like Matrix, Fight Club.
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: Die Hard.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: Die Hard? Oh, with a vengeance? Or no, wait. No.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Die Hard. Which Die Hard?
• 10:37
  Speaker 2: Oh, was that 80s?
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Die Hard was 80s because when Die Hard 3
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: came out during the Oklahoma City bombing, and so that's
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: why it made no money. Tragedy. Yeah, tell me about it.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: That'll tank a movie real quick.
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: When did Jurassic Park come out?
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: That and Cameron Diaz. No, I'm just fucking around.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Don't be mean about my girl cat.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: No, I'm just kidding. What were you going to say?
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: The Mask is also great.
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah. I just recently bought it.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: It's... Oh, what a great.
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: Buying all that social media back up.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Okay, we were talking about how we love, you know,
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: original ideas becoming more and more prevalent and kind of
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: steering away from franchises or reboots. But I... One reboot
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: that I absolutely want to see happen, and it was
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: briefly in, like, talks for a second... is the mask,
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: but with a female protagonist.
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Why did I, I heard about this. Yeah.
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: And I just got dropped, but I want to like,
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: I would love to write that script or I would
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: love to see it happen in general. I just want
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: it to happen because the perspective is different.
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: Who would you cast?
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: Oh my God. Well, because I mean, Ashley Padilla is
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: on my mind.
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: And I think she's going to be like, I think
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: she has what it takes to be that energy, a
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: movie star, comedic movie star. That can also do drama, obviously,
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: like full scale. But I think she would be phenomenal.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: Man, I just think she could carry it. It would
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: take a really unique person to carry it.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: And I like that about how your choice in casting,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: it's more of like... Or I want to do it.
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: I know, right?
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: I want to do it. I want to do the mask.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: For real.
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: But it'd be so much fun. And I just think.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: A female perspective going through that same experience would be just,
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: just that whole, like.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Different treasure chest of memory and, you know, pop culture
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: reference thing. Cause like in, in, in the mask one,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: it's like, it's all of Jim Carrey. It's all Stanley
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Ipkiss is, you know, his, his, all his stuff.
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: And it'd be cool to see, Oh, just taking over
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: like the id running wild and just a woman being
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: fully possessed in that way.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Cause like, I mean, there's like, there's probably little things,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: little references that, that women will probably get from other
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: women to be.
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I could see Steph Tolove doing it too.
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, okay. Okay.
• 13:04
  Speaker 2: Like just being like, it's just somebody who can really
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: kind of go there.
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: With that wild side of just like letting it all go.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Because like, I was like, like, cause I know like,
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: cause you know, when girls were interested in other things
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: and little boys were like in it, because this thing,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: it's like, Oh, there could have probably been, like, this
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: smaller reference to G.I. Joe or just, like, some really
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: off-the-wall character that little boys are into. It's like, oh, no, no, no.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: And there's probably a ton of that that little girls
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: or girls would get into. Totally. Yeah, I'd be like, oh,
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: my God, I thought I was the only one that
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: noticed that about such and such or about that thing.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, that would be so much
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: fun to just find all those things. And then another conversation.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I was like, for real? Like, that's who we got? Like,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: all the time? Yeah. There have been some, especially being
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: married now and being with like my wife, just telling
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: me all these little things that I don't know that
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: I'm not privy to. And I'm like, shut the fuck up.
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: I didn't know women have like this underlining war with
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: each other sometimes while they're out and about. She's like, yeah,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: she's not a girl's girl over there. She's a bitch.
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, what? I could just tell. I could,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: you know, you could just, I was like, really? And
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: I was like, that's crazy. And that, or they speak
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: with the eyes. I didn't know you talk with your eyes.
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: We talk with our eyes. We talk with a lot
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: of things.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah. There's a whole bunch of, I was like, Oh,
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: that's interesting. Yeah. And now I notice, I notice all like,
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: I didn't know about lashes. I didn't know anything about lashes.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: Right. You learn all these things that you never knew before.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Found them in the shower. We're scared the shit out
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: of me. Totally.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: You're like, that's a centipede.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: I'm scared of spiders. I was like, babe, come get it.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: But she looks good, right?
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. No, definitely looks good. It definitely worth all
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: of it. It was just not, I just, I didn't know.
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: It's just new. It's new.
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: And like, that's kind of like how I've been writing lately,
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: especially being in this, you know, that's.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: A wealth of stuff to write about.
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: It's just new and I'm learning and it's like, it's not,
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: I'm not complaining. That's what I want to make sure.
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: I want to tell people I'm not complaining. Right. I'm
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: just I'm just learning and it's interesting and it's so funny. Totally. Yeah.
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: Just to live with another person and and have your
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: lives intertwined is is automatically going to be rife with humor.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah. It's all over the place. Like, oh, this is. Yeah.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: And like, I don't mean too much to talk about
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: me too much. I'm sorry.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: No, that's I do. Is your is your wife into comedy?
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: She's not. But she is funny. She's really funny. She
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: helps write. And like, we have a board at the
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: house and we write ideas. And then like, sometimes like
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: she'll have a joke and I've tried it out and
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: she gets really excited about it. And she's like, how
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: did it work? And that's cool. And I'm like, yeah, no,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: she's like, and then she wrote, she does something else too. Like,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: or we'll talk. And then she's like, that's funny. So, okay,
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: here's this. Sorry, I cut you off.
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: This is the, no, no, I'm.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Just going to say this, this, this funny thing about,
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: so the joke that we're, I'm kind of working on
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: that kind of, we kind of developed this because, she's
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: not in sketch, but she's in sketch. Cool. She just
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: will envelop a character and go with it and not stop.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: And I'm the same way. Yeah. And so we kind
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: of like have fun with that. And I go, we
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: can never role play for sex. Yeah. Because no one
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: wants a bright character. I know. I was this close
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: to being pimped out.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: I thought about that. I was like, I don't think
• 16:04
  Speaker 2: that'll work for me because I'm going to go too
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: hard on the bit. Yeah. Like, There's been plenty of
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: sketches on SNL in different places where the characters get
• 16:13
  Speaker 2: into a role play situation and it gets too weird
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: and too real too fast.
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: Which makes it not sexy anymore. And I think that's
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: what it would be. It's just like committing to the
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: bit I don't have a problem with. I can commit
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: to a bit.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah. And that's what I love about her. Yes. I
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: don't care how I look. I just, I need to
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: finish this. Same.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: I relate hard. I'm just like, I'll, I'll, I will
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: go down.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: With the bit. Yeah. I love that. It's so much fun.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: It's so, it's so much fun though. It's so silly.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: And then after we get done, you know, like, like, Oh,
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: that was, that was so funny when you did this,
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: that I was dying and dah, dah, dah, dah. Just
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: being silly and stuff like that. I really liked that.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: It's a fun, fun thing. But, no, also, too, what
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: I was going to say about your stand-up and about
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: how when you first started, because, like you said, you're in,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: what year are you in, actually?
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: I am going on my fifth year, but I've been doing, like,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: comedy-adjacent things for probably, like, close to ten now?
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Maybe, yeah. And right now you're in development of the set. Yeah.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: Were you very, like, are you very, like, worried about
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: time right now?
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: I should be worried more about time.
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: Oh, no, no, no, that's, no, I'm just.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: Oh, do you mean like getting more time?
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, I think I'm... You're like a bitch getting
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: old real quick.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: No, I'm like... I was like, do you mean like
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: on stage? Should I be reeling it in? I'm like, yeah.
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: I should reel it in a little bit. Or pay
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: attention to the clock more. No, I'm pretty good at
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: that too. I just, I'm not like militant about it.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to end it when the, you know,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: within the time when the joke's over, that kind of thing.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: That's not really a thing. But, I think I'm in
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: a place where when somebody asks you, how much time
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: do you have? I don't feel comfortable. I hate that
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: question right now where I'm at because I can technically
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: do quite a bit of time, but do I like it?
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: do I think it all is cohesive? Do I want
• 18:10
  Speaker 2: to use it for every instance? No. So like I'm
• 18:13
  Speaker 2: hovering at probably like 40 to 45, but I, um,
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: am constantly, I'm so hard on myself and I'm always, uh,
• 18:23
  Speaker 2: kind of want more.
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: So I, I never really feel satisfied or I hate
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: answering that question. And that's, I just need to be
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: better at answering the question.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah. No, no. I was just wondering, I know like
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: at sometimes at some points in comedy, you're like, You know,
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: I can do 45, but I'm comfortable at 25. Oh, yeah, yeah. Because, like,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: I wish that I would have spent more time being
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: comfortable in certain slots as opposed to, like, I can
• 18:52
  Speaker 1: do it, but it's, like, I know it's stretching, and
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I know that I'm, like, it's more of a fact, like,
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: when I go on stage, I'm, like, oh, I hope
• 19:01
  Speaker 1: I do well.
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: And I'd rather go on stage, like, oh, I can't
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: wait to get on. Totally.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: That's what I want, too. I want to be in
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: a place where I'm like, from start to finish, I'm solid.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: I'm having fun.
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: And I have some flexibility. I have material that I
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: can take in and out. It doesn't have to be there.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: That's ideally where I want to live. And I'm constantly
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: working on getting there. I mean, that's the point, right?
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: That's the best thing, too, because you get off stage
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: and be like, oh, I didn't do four things that
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I wanted. Three or four things? Right. That's awesome. And
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: I had a good time. Totally.
• 19:33
  Speaker 2: And I think... Right now, I have a day job,
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: like a lot of us do. And I'm like, man,
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: I would love just more time to build stuff and
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: to kind of keep expanding, keep expanding.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But that's also fun. Keep finding more pieces of
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: the puzzle. Right. And playing around with it.
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: Totally.
• 19:49
  Speaker 1: Totally.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: Then just like if I ever do a special or,
• 19:53
  Speaker 2: you know, when I do a special, that's a better
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: way to put it. I want to have it be
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: cohesive and a theme and kind of make sense. And
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: so I'm just now starting to look at that and say,
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: what do I want that to look like in the future?
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: What do I want a full headliner set to look like?
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: What do I want that to look like if I
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: do a special? How do I want it to interweave?
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Do I want to tell a story? Do I want to...
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: start leaning into those longer bits a little more, which
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: is kind of the next thing for me is like.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Storyteller? Yeah.
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: How do I make these stories a little bit punchier
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: and do it in a way that feels like myself?
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: And you know, it's fun. Like we were talking about
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: that too, about like the, with the sketch and like
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: how we were talking earlier about how you get to
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: intermingle the sketch, you know, tools and, totally into there.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: So when they do tell the story, like to become
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: the character or to become the cousin or like I
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: was saying, like making inanimate objects, have personalities and just
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: letting them breathe and for sure. And then walk in
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: the fun thing about that too. It's like, I mean,
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: it's the whole idea is so much fun. It doesn't
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: necessarily have to be like, if any, if I can
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: give you any advice, I don't, I haven't seen you
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: do anything like that, but if I can give you
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: any advice on, on standup or like, just like that,
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: it's like, don't, don't, Or any comic. It's great to write,
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: but don't write everything out and not give yourself any
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: room to let it live or breathe.
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: Totally.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: And it's like, yeah, here's the idea, and let's see
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: what happens.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because you're supposed to be funding them to figure
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: it out. Yeah. A lot of comics sometimes will write,
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: and it'll be like a model, and then they just
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: get stuck into this paragraph.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: And that's where I'm trying to really steer... away from
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: and be more comfortable telling stories on stage and kind
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: of taking it back and looking, okay, I can work
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: with this now. And I'm starting to do that. And
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: it's really exciting because I think there's this worry that,
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: you know, you just want to be good. Everybody wants
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: to be good all the time. And so like, yeah,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: I want to get my jokes per minute. I want
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: to tag this as much as possible. Like that's where
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: you're starting. And now I'm thinking, you know, can I
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: just like let myself play during a set? And like, yeah,
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: bomb a little bit and let myself have a little
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: bit of fun and figure out something that's going to
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: be long-term way better than what I'm currently doing.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: It's so funny that you say that. Yeah. Bomb a
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: little bit.
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: I got to let myself bomb a little bit more.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: But that's why people should become, should, should, should be
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: hosts for the long time. Yeah. Because being a host
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: will let you like bomb a little bit, but know
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: that and have the comments like, This didn't go well.
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: You're bombing all the time when you're hosting.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, you know how to get yourself out of
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: a hole after a while. And then on top of that, too,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: if you're such a good host and so good that
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: you know how to get the show out of a
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: hole that you didn't even do. Yeah. Like, that last
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: guy sucked. And you know what? I got to erase that.
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: So let me get back in here and get him
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: out that hole. So you know that you have the
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: confidence that that joke didn't land. But it's OK. Because
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I can get it back.
• 22:56
  Speaker 2: Or this person just made a mess. And now I
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: got to let them know that it's going to be
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: OK from here. And we've got this handled. Like, we're
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: in it together. I'm not leaving you.
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
• 23:05
  Speaker 2: And I do feel like that's something I do well, like,
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: that I have some confidence in is hosting and just saying, like.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I can't wait to see your set. I want to
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: check it out. Like, I'm really excited now. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 23:15
  Speaker 2: But I do like hosting, and I feel like I
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: kind of get siloed in that sometimes because... And I
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: take it.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: I'm really grateful that people feel like they can trust
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: me to do it and say, okay, I got... Like,
• 23:26
  Speaker 2: she's got it. She's not going to let this go
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: off the rails. She's not going to say anything disparaging
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: about anything.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: That matters.
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: Or just like I know that shows in good hands.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Or just have a calm demeanor. Like, you know, make
• 23:38
  Speaker 2: sure people feel comfortable and know that it's not about me.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: Because that's the other part of being a host is
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: knowing it's not about you. Like you are here to
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: be a concierge. You're here to like make everybody feel
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: like it's going to be a great time. And sometimes
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: that means biting the bullet. Sometimes that means bombing because
• 23:54
  Speaker 2: you're just taking the hits and you're finding out what's
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: going to work with this audience. Like you might be
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: up there. And your whole set is just about finding
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: where's the baseline for the next people coming up. And
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: getting through it with grace and being like, yeah, we
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: got through it.
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: It's great. Let's keep going. Everything that you learn as
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: a host, it makes you a better headliner because it's
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: all a wax on, wax off. It's all karate kid shit.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: It's crazy because I will see that in people like
• 24:17
  Speaker 2: Paul Verzi, who I've had the pleasure of working with recently.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: He's so phenomenal at making the audience feel taken care
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: of and just saying like, hey, And that's stuff that
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: a host does, too. But he weaves it in and
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: out of his whole headlining set, which is cool. And
• 24:33
  Speaker 2: I want to get there where it's like, okay, I'm
• 24:36
  Speaker 2: checking in with people, but also it's like we're not
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: stopping once we start.
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: Because when you're a host, too, it's like people are
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: coming in and they're ordering. Yep. So they're talking. Yeah.
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: They're not paying attention to you. Totally. And as a headliner.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: They're getting set, they're getting seated.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, as a headliner, they're... you're dealing with the check
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: drop where they're talking to each other.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: True.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: So it's the same thing. I didn't even think about
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: it like that, but that's, yeah, there's all this stuff.
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: That's the same thing that makes you a better headliner
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: because you know how to deal with this part. It
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: comes back this part, but not at the same thing.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: And then same thing. Like, um, uh, even like, uh,
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: what is another, another instance to, like you said to
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: people sitting down or a cold audience that you have to,
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: You have to get a cold audience to understand the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: rhythms on where to be at.
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: Or like, this is the energy level. And when you're
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: bringing out the next person you want, you're like, okay, guys,
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: let's pick it up.
• 25:24
  Speaker 1: And as a headliner, sometimes the room is chaotic, right?
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: And you have to, again, train it. Hey, got to
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: calm down. Totally.
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: Check in with them.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: Be like, hey, guys. Yeah, because it's like, yo, they're
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: drunk now. Yeah. They've been there.
• 25:35
  Speaker 2: We're really excited for this person to come out. I
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: know you're excited. You've had a lot of drinks. We're
• 25:39
  Speaker 2: having a good time.
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: And so let's really give this person our energy and.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Joy.
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Be cool about it.
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, for sure. Be cool. Don't be weird. we're talking
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: about too earlier, like, you know, as a host, you're
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: going to get into, you know, holes because of those things,
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: but you'd be confident and you get yourself out of
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: them and boom. And it comes back again at the
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: end as a host, because for a host, I mean,
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: as a headliner, you're doing the used, it used to
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: be 60 minutes, but now it's 45, a lot of
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: common clothes. Now it's 45. So it's even more, it's cake. Um, but, uh,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: so you're up and you have to change gears of
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: the show. So definitely you'll even put yourself in a hole.
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: Are you, You'll dial it back. So you reset the room.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: And you know how to reset the room and you
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: have the confidence in it because you know you can
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: get yourself out of anything. So it's like, okay, I've
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: learned that as being a host. I know how to
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: do it now as a headliner. It makes it way
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: more smoother. So I always tell people to be a
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: host as long as possible and enjoy it. And it's
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: one of the most important parts of the show.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Totally.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: And people think it's like, oh, it's just, you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 1: but they don't even think you're a comic. It's like,
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: you know, you're a fucking relax. Yeah.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: You're going to be.
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Which is true. Like, like you will do a show
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: and I've done like host sets and sometimes they're longer
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: host sets. And, and so it's like, I can't wait
• 26:55
  Speaker 2: to see you do stand up afterwards. And I'm like, well,
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: that was.
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah. What do you think I was doing? Just hanging
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: out with you guys? Yes, they do. That's, yeah.
• 27:03
  Speaker 2: But that's okay.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: That's the point.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: That's the point.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: So you, it's funny. You have to have that confidence
• 27:07
  Speaker 2: inside yourself. You're like, that's not what this is. Right.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: I did my job then.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: I made the kill. I love stand-up science. Yeah, me too. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: I know. We're all excited. I know. I like talking
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: about it. Okay. Let's do questions. Okay.
