You know, hey, guys.
He's the head of the bowling league.
We were just talking.
We got the hilarious Eddie Pepitone here.
Yeah, we was just talking.
I never do NPR.
I never get booked for NPR when I'm promoting a special,
but I'm producing the first special I've ever produced,
Dina Hashim's special for Amazon.
Really?
She's hilarious.
It's a great special.
Can I ask you a question?
And hi, Eddie Pepitone.
What does that mean to produce a special?
Seriously.
It just means I help try to sell it.
It doesn't, I mean.
He doesn't really, that's producers, yeah.
Or like, you know, I mean, I watched it and I was like, I'd cut this, I'd cut, but like,
but I said, it's your special and you make it work.
You're going to help try to sell it.
Yeah.
No, it's on Amazon now.
It's out now.
Oh, okay.
Man, he should produce yours.
Well, you had one. Wasn't the last one amazon uh the last one yes that was hilarious by the way that was a great killer
which one the last one yes it was called um for the masses that was a great special i mean it was
uh thank you i still remember i mean a lot of the fucking bits. The one about the, it was like the femdom porn or something.
Some really dark bit.
Now, femdom porn, that's your thing?
I guess.
No, but I know I've seen it.
It was like domination porn.
You said something crazy in one of the bits.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I get a lot of mileage out of bondage pornography.
That's what it was.
That's a great sentence.
No, it's hard to watch it in la because the sun is blaring oh yeah fucking time hard to jerk in the sun it it's just it's a mental
thing it is like you're watching people in hoods they're hung from hooks and outside. It's just beautiful. It's just me.
Birds.
Right.
Right.
People jogging.
And you're like,
what am I doing?
What am I doing?
Indeed.
Mark.
Yeah.
But we,
we are road comics.
So that hotel midday jerk is kind of nice.
The amount I jerk off on the road is,
is it insane?
I'm like,
what is this vacation?
Go on Zoloft.
You'll never jerk off again.
Oh,
really?
I heard you can't't you can't finish it
sucks yeah it it sucks the finish is really difficult oh loft you know it's a bummer i mean
i think we were raised as men oh it's great that you don't come early right right because i used to
come just you know on the phone call with trying to be funny didn't work um but um uh yeah
this one it's tough it's tough to finish really even with a pretty hooker but even with a hot lady
it's uh it's tough yeah it gets a little it you know what's so funny it gets a little pressurized
the other way.
Like instead of like you're thinking of baseball to try not to come,
the famous Woody Allen bit, if you remember.
Sure, great bit.
Where he's like.
Just don't think of Derek Jeter.
What's that?
Fucking hot guy.
Don't think of Derek Jeter is what I said.
He might come.
But he is a Yankee.
All right.
If you heard of the bit, you heard of the bit.
And boy, Woody Allen i it's it's
touchy now but anyway he was touching then we're hot tonight we're hot tonight uh he was like
so i'm thinking of baseball to try and get him and he goes uh so mccovey's up this is all in his head McCovey base hit base hit
I pull a hit
and run
it works
Lanier
gets another base hit
I got first and third
she's already
in the shower
like
that was the punchline
is that
he's so into
the baseball
his stand
his old stand up
was
it still holds up
you know comedy
doesn't age well
it still is great
it does it's it does it's
it's it's it's not topical it's just evergreen jokes yes he's got that great shit my wife tells
me i'm immature uh i was in the bath the other day she came in and sunk my boats yeah you know
he's got a million of them i love i mean bullets over broadway to me is his funniest movie that
movie just kills me dude me fuck what's your favorite line in that movie i got one
i love i love when she's narrating um i think i fucked diane weiss when she when she walks in
don't talk oh that's one of them talk but i love when they say uh you know she said helen sinclair
arrived late but she had a good excuse and she, my pedicurist had a stroke. She landed right on my feet.
They required bandaging.
That's a great fucking joke.
That's like multiple jokes.
He really, like Mel Brooks, who's also like a legend.
By the way, this episode should be called The Celebration of Woody Allen.
Cosby next. But Meloks is the same way they go for joke jokes yes in their
yeah oh yeah god i remember being shot even as a kid just like watching i'd be like holy
shit i cannot believe they're saying were you a prudish kid no i'm kidding
it's just like they didn't make movies like that you're like this is insane right yeah yeah the
n-word is said 800 times that's true and they cut a lot of shit i heard him on fresh air talking
about another npr reference really npring up a storm npr i was so happy to be on anything npr
when i was doing dina's thing because uh my my itinerary when i have a special coming out it's
like barstool barstool it's like not a lot of npr in's like barstool, barstool. It's like, not a lot of NPR in there, you know? Yeah, yeah.
Oh, barstool sports? Yeah, yeah.
Okay, cool.
No, I don't know anything.
Bart, you know,
you're a big Knick fan, I know that. I am.
You're a New York guy, too.
I'm a big, I was at the Ranger game last night.
Like, I love hockey
and football and baseball,
but the Knicks were so bad for so long, dude.
I just lost.
Are they good now?
They're good.
Okay.
They made the second round of the playoffs last year.
They're solid.
We'll see.
They're a disappointment every fucking year.
What about you?
Are you any of it?
I got the Saints.
They're all disappointment.
They're like the Southern Bills.
Both teams are pretty good.
Well, the Bills are pretty good.
The Bills are pretty good this year, but I like are pretty good. The Bills are pretty good this year.
But I like boxing and UFC.
You what?
I like boxing and UFC.
I prefer more of an individual, like a tennis.
You like one-on-one.
I like one-on-one.
You're like Christopher Lloyd in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest when Nicholson was strangling
Big Nurse.
Do you remember this?
Yeah, yeah.
And Christopher Lloyd was just going to fucking kill her.
Oh, yeah.
Yes.
Fucking kill her.
He's like Martini.
That's a great scene with Nurse Ratched.
And he's trying to kill her.
Yeah, and Christopher Lloyd.
Christopher Lloyd.
Because he liked, like you, the one-on-one combat.
And Martini, how great would it be if Danny DeVito was, and he's a corporate whore, how
great would it be if he was shilling
for jersey mike's as martini as martini like in a hospital garage oh he's good it's good
you know what annoys me so much is there's these uh and i watch them all i'm a fucking
whore for these things but they have those instagram tiktok people who are just like
in their car trying sandwiches and stuff oh that's gotten big it's gotten big dude
like literally whatever joke we post you know doesn't even touch them you know putting dressing
the guy the guy's going like this is perfect he's eating fucking jersey mics oh no he's not he
thinks he's a fucking you know connoisseur yeah he's talking
about it like it's like fine dining you know and he's like he's like dude there's an italian guy
who's great yeah do you know who i'm talking about young meal by coogs what's his name coogs
that skinny guy he looks on yes shit coogs well he's like, I fucked your sister the whole time? That guy? Oh, no, no. This guy goes, here we are at Tuttulio's.
The best.
And you believe him because of the passion behind it.
The best fucking roast beef sandwich.
And he eats it.
And it's just like, okay.
And while I'm watching this from LA going, I'm going to go to Tuttulio's as soon as I
get back to New York.
You know what I mean?
Well, I think we got Guy Fieri to thank for this.
You know, you make fun of diners, drivers, and dives.
I watch it every time it's on.
Do you?
It's just great to put in the background.
Like, it's not good, but he's just like, this is the fucking sandwich.
I'm like, that's the energy I need when I'm in Des Moines.
Yeah, I guess that's what it is.
Is this Nico?
Is that the New York Nico guy?
Oh, that's the dude.
That's the dude.
His name's Meal by Coog.
What's it called? Meal's Mule by Coog. What's it called?
Mule by Coog.
Coog.
I think it was Cougine, which is Italian for cousin or Sicilian.
This fucking guy.
Why in the car?
This guy's going to die at 37, though.
Do you see?
Every fucking thing, he's like, use a little more provolone.
I'm like, dude, you're going to fucking die. It's like, use a little more provolone. I'm like, dude, you're gonna fucking die.
It's just great.
Come on. He seems so authentic to me. Yeah.
That's fun.
But check him out. He is
kind of... He's wearing...
No, but now he's wearing these, like, nice glasses, which –
Oh, he's upgraded.
And he's got this trimmed – like, he's obviously making some money now, right?
That's not cool.
How many views you got up on this puppy?
Yeah.
How many?
I don't know.
I can't tell.
This feels like a –
Look at how many comments.
Wow.
This is a ripoff, though.
This isn't the guy's actual page, I don't think.
Oh, maybe, yeah.
What? How do you know? No, I don't think. Oh, maybe, yeah.
What?
How do you know?
No, I don't know.
Oh, yeah, maybe you're right.
Meals by Cook.
Yeah, but Twitter's not where this shit's from.
2.6 million followers for trying sandwiches. Now, by the way, does it ever get you down, like, that this shit, right, does so much traffic
and just about the mediocrity of people in general, like what they're attracted
to. What do you think? You're more of a people person than I am. And I think so is Sam, because
Sam is like, oh, I, you know, it's great. It's good energy. I go with the negative.
No, I come at it. I come at it from. That's the way love about you. No, that's the thing.
Right. We got good way to love about you. No, that's your thing.
Right.
We got good energy on your bad energy.
That's right.
Yin and yang.
But I don't think it's healthy for me ultimately.
No, you're clearly healthy.
All right.
But no, I mean, I'm just, I think it's great.
That helps.
But you got to have your voice, you know, that's you, you're authentic.
Yeah. Yeah. I just I just later in life, I've been like, wow, I'm going to die soon.
You know, I don't know how soon I'll make it through this.
You're going to make it way longer than that kid.
That's true. This is your role.
How to get bashed.
All the speeches at the funeral.
Like he would he wouldn't want me to eat this sandwich while I gave this speech.
Oh, that's fucking. That's a semolina roll right there that's fucking that's for you buddy
who had a little diet coke on his grave dc diet coke man i i are you into that shit yeah yeah
it's it's addictive but you can't blame him you got to blame the masses because he's just
seeing what works and and giving them what they want.
Who?
The sandwich kid.
Right, right.
But it's just to me depressing that the worst shit, I mean, that's not the worst, but just people flock to bullshit.
Oh, yeah.
Nothing highbrow.
No. Like, I would love to do a YouTube channel where I'm just talking about, let's say, Rembrandt,
but, like, just little facts that people don't know about Rembrandt.
Like, just make them up, too, that Rembrandt had a deviated septum.
Whatever.
Couldn't get it up.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Don't go blue.
Don't draw people.
Yeah, you're right.
You're right. I'd be like, you know what kind of pencil he used? It wasn't get it up. Yeah. I don't know. Don't go blue. That would draw people. Yeah, you're right. You're right.
I'd be like, you know what kind of pencil he used?
It wasn't a number two.
It was 2.1.
I don't know.
It's like a boring Bob Ross.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
A boring Bob Ross.
Yeah.
It turned out he was a big pussy.
Is that right?
Bob Ross got a lot of pussy.
He had a sex appeal.
He had the hair coming out of the shirt. That's true pussy he had a sex appeal he had the hair
coming out of the shirt
he had a full fro
denim
whoa
is that what happened
is that right
now that's a great tidbit
maybe that would have
happened to the guy
in full metal jacket
if he didn't get his head
blown off
you know
maybe he would have
been a painter
that's right
D'Onofrio didn't fucking off him he blew his own head off, you know? Maybe he would have been a painter. That's right.
D'Onofrio didn't fucking off him. He blew his own head off D'Onofrio.
That was him, yeah.
Yeah, I worked with him, and this isn't to come at you
because I'm sure you have things going on,
but I worked with him in a show called Deadline.
It was on for a heartbeat on ABC,
and he was like a cop or or something and i was like a news
reporter going mr johnson mr johnson you know and that was it did you chat with him at all by the
way this is why i don't tell stories because my stories go no fucking where yeah i know what you
mean you've been a lot of movies i feel like i'll just be watching something i'll be like that's fucking eddie peppertone oh yeah you know old school yeah old school how was
that best whoa that's right dude i just i i was in new york ucb and scott armstrong who co-wrote
it i don't know if you know scott he's a writer and he co-ote it, and he just comes up to me. He was part of the UCB crew. And he goes, hey, would you like to be in a movie with Will Farrell?
This was right before Farrell.
Old school made Farrell.
Yeah.
Like, big.
Like, he was already big from SNL or whatever.
And Roxbury was a movie he was in.
Right.
Roxbury with Catan?
Yeah.
Is Catan still with us? barely he's hanging in there yes for him to be relevant now it's it's a lot isn't it like yeah his big
thing was the disco thing that was no that was a movie colin quinn's in that movie is he yeah
one of my favorite colin quinn has a great cameo in that movie where his whole character just asks, he goes,
did you just grab my ass?
That's all he says the whole movie.
And they're like, no.
No, no one is grabbing your ass.
That's his whole character.
Did he do it more than once in the movie or just once?
No, he's a recurring character.
It's a running gag.
Oh, no, maybe the other guy asked him and he has to say no, but it's good.
It's a good thing.
So what happened in old school?
So, yeah, I just want to tell you um that i that armstrong came up to me said
would you like to be in this movie i was like fuck yeah so i go to la had no idea i was gonna
move to la but they put me up right next to uh venice beach so i was on the water wow you know
and i've been landlocked here you know once you get well as
a new yorker you know i didn't i don't know if you guys do but i don't go on boats here except
the ferry yeah the staten island ferry you know which i did fish off the back a lot of people
don't know you can bring your own chum
but anyway i i go to la and i kind of it was incredible i fucking was hanging out with
vince fawn luke wilson and will farrell yeah the other guys at my level were rob corddry
simon hellberg who became big with the um big bang shit oh yeah and um a guy named rick gonzalez who became a movie star too you know and it was
just incredible hanging with fucking farrell and being right up close watching him do his thing
amazing crazy vince vaughn you're both directed by the same director oh yeah todd phillips yeah
what who very briefly in the joker well you in The Joker? I do stand-up before it goes on.
That was very brief.
Oh, shit.
I have a lot of range.
You what?
I have a lot of range, I assume.
That's cool as fuck that you're with.
How was Vince Vaughn to work with?
Was he cool?
He was very cool to me, but a little crazy.
I remember he was smoking a lot of cigarettes,
and Wilson, Luke, would be like... but a little crazy. I remember he was smoking a lot of cigarettes,
and Wilson, Luke, would be like,
and he kind of is an all-American guy, Wilson.
That's what he looks like anyway,
and he was like, you got to stop it, Vince.
Damn.
He's like this character. And Vince would be like,
and he'd be like, yeah, no, I know, I know.
I met Wilson once on Conan.
We were on Conan together,
and he was so freaking nice.
Very nice.
I had a good set on that one.
He came in the green room after Earth.
Oh, really?
And he was like, I'm going to keep my eye on you.
Oh, that's so cool.
Never saw him ever again.
It was a nice moment.
But he's in the shadows looking at you.
That's right.
That's right.
He was a nice dude, though.
You know, Will Ferrell, such a funny guy, obviously, trained Shakespearean.
No.
And I think that's why he's so funny, because he's so serious in a comedy movie, and that's funny.
That is a great insight.
Yeah, fun.
That is a great insight.
Have you thought about critiquing acting work in general?
Like just a show called let's take a look that's the name of the show when you play clips yeah of like like an old like shelly winters when she was hot
she was i don't know she was hot she was uh to Google. She got fat. She got very fat. Oh, really? That's complacency.
I know it.
Oh, yeah.
Old school was great.
Yeah, what other movies were you in?
You did a ton of stuff.
Let's see.
I was in the Muppet movie.
Oh, really?
Jeff Dunham's?
All right.
Jeff Dunham's?
No.
No.
It was with... who the fuck?
Amy Adams, the red hair, and Jason, he was in How I Met Your Mother.
Oh, Siegel.
Jason Siegel.
He's fun.
And check it out.
There she is.
Wow, she was a bombshell.
She was a bombshell.
Look at that.
Full-figured gal.
A full-figured gal. And it went south on her. Pity she was a bombshell. She was a bombshell. Look at that. Full-figured gal. A full-figured gal.
And it went south on her.
Titties, dude.
Yeah.
Titties for days.
What's that?
Titties for days.
Yeah.
Yeah, beautiful.
Yeah.
And I heard she liked to fool around.
Oh.
You know?
And she would have been, like, look at her.
Yeah.
There's the picture later.
Yeah, wow.
It doesn't go well for, I think, most people don't.
Men age better.
Yeah, we're lucky in that regard.
But we're rough in the young years, I think.
So check it out.
I'm on the set of, there it is, The Muppets.
You're in a ton of shit, dude.
Jesus.
Yeah, I'm on the set of The Muppets.
Terry was another movie, School for Scoundrels.
Oh, yeah.
But The Muppet movie, I did a dance number.
The choreographer, I played a postman.
It was like a cameo.
They would do different people doing little cameos.
And I danced around this town square.
And the choreographer was Mickey Rooney's son.
Jesus.
And he was in yellow face.
He was like, we're going to keep the tradition going.
I don't get that reference.
I laugh, but I don't get it.
Oh, reference to Tiffany's.
He was the Asian guy.
Was he?
Yeah.
He played an Asian guy.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, sorry.
Now I know why those folks got so upset with the Madam Butterfly,
with the Boxer Rebellion particularly.
I mean, his rendition of an Asian guy is pretty wild.
Oh, my God.
There it is.
Boy, and what year was that?
55?
55.
I'm guessing.
Wow. It's in 55. I'm guessing. Wow.
It's in color.
That's amazing.
Oh, yeah.
That kind of stereotype.
61.
Way off.
61.
So that wasn't that long ago.
No.
By the way, we have no sense of time.
We think 1961 was forever ago.
Yeah.
It's nothing. 80 years? It's nothing 80 years it's nothing we'll be gone i think we're
going to be gone here comes my negativity bring it on yeah i think this how long do we have dude
really dude before the shit hits the fan in this country i'll give you a number and when i mean
shit hits the fan i mean it'll be violent here.
It will be dangerous just to do anything.
And that'll be in 2027, I believe.
Whoa.
2027.
Just think about here we are now and things are teetering or I think things are teetering already.
Yeah.
You know, I know it's going well for you guys.
And that's what we tend to look at.
Like, hey, I'm in Boise.
You know.
Yeah.
That was my highlight this year.
Boise.
Nice place.
Very clean air.
Yeah.
Nice people.
Clean air.
There's a lot of survivalists there.
Yes. Yes. Nice people. Clean air. There's a lot of survivalists there. Yes.
Yes.
You know?
But 2027, what about the election next year?
Democrats cannot run Biden.
No.
But they will.
They can.
But they will.
I don't know if they will.
They will and they'll lose.
I don't know if they will run him.
And then we're going to get Donnie again.
Well, they say that Gavin News might slide in. Oh, come on.
I bet he runs.
I'm calling it right now.
Yeah.
I don't know if he'll win, but I bet he runs.
Yeah.
I don't think he's got a lot of popularity.
He's got good hair.
He's terrific looking.
Yes, he looks like a newscaster.
He's terrific looking the way a Batman villain is good looking.
Where you're like, yeah, sure, Aaron Eckhart is handsome.
Oh, yeah.
But it's like something, I don't know.
I'm not saying I'm a fan.
I'm just saying I think he's right.
Look at that guy.
He's like a news broadcaster.
Don't Californians hate him, though?
Some do, but he won again.
Mostly.
Mostly.
He recently voted against giving the actors unemployment, like during the strike.
Yeah.
He also passed a law that made test scores easier or lower standards for black kids or whatever.
And I'm like, what are you doing?
Yeah.
That feels weirdly racist.
Yeah.
He's what you call a shit lib.
A shit lib.
So you think your prediction is Trump wins and then it goes down the toilet.
He's polling well.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Totally.
Yeah.
And plus the world, if you're checking out the world.
Did something happen?
Globally.
This is it. And I don't know if you guys are, but I like to come from this point of view on stage, even though a lot of people aren't into it.
That globally, man, it's the oppressor against the oppressed.
And the oppressed are starting to rise up.
And it's just going to be chaos.
Oh, yeah.
You know, the chaos we're witnessing in the Mideast, which I's just going to be chaos oh yeah you know the chaos
we're witnessing in the mid-east which i think is going to grow yeah that war i think is going
to expand you know right yeah it doesn't seem good it's good television but it's brutal
but have you seen is it cake
well that's the dichotomy, right?
And that's the thing I talk about a lot is like, and I'm as guilty as anybody, the distractions.
Like, what the fuck do we care about what's going on in the Mideast when right in our neighborhood, a great macaroon shop just opened up.
And the technology now, the baking technology with macaroons is amazing.
I love a macaroon.
Oh, they melt in your fucking mouth
and you're going to give a shit about what's going on?
Yeah, yeah.
There's a new Indiana Jones coming out.
Is that right?
Well, they just had one, yeah.
They look great.
No, I think it was.
I loved those growing up.
Yeah, everything, they just keep making the same shit.
The same shit.
No one's taking a risk.
You know what I like?
There's a new movie coming out with Natalie Portman.
Have you heard about this movie?
No.
Natalie, because one of the things I got for homework for you guys.
We got a rec.
I was going to say idiots.
You guys is, oh, recommend something.
She's in my top five, by the way.
A new, Todd Haynes.
There it is.
Oh, he's a good director.
Todd Haynes.
He did.
Holy.
Todd Haynes, a gay man.
He did.
He's gay?
That explains.
That explains.
He did a very strange movie.
It's on YouTube or something.
It's on the Carpenters.
And he has Karen Carpenter.
They're just dolls, the whole movie.
And it's about her downfall and bulimia.
I want to watch that.
It's actually really cool.
Check this out.
So you see that guy on the left, Charles Melton?
Okay, so the premise of the movie is Julianne Moore was a teacher and slept with her seventh grade student, which was Charles Melton.
She went to jail.
She gets out of jail,
and she hooks up with him again
because they're soulmates.
Hell yeah.
Natalie Portman is a journalist

Wasn't it good?
It's really good.

oh, it's about a bunch of rich fucks in Monterey, California,
beautiful scenery.
I'm like, fuck these people.
And then I watch it. I'm like, fuck these people. And then I watch it.
I'm like, oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It's basically a bunch of Karens.
But the fun thing about those shows is it's basically real estate porn.
So you're like,
it's real estate porn.
That's how I feel about Succession.
You're just like,
I get to look at these fucking sick.
That's true.
I never saw Succession.
Porn has great real estate as well,
even, by the way.
Which one?
Porn.
Just regular porn.
They're like fucking on a stairwell.
I'm like, this is a beautiful home.
That's a beautiful stairwell.
I always look for things in porn like, wow, they don't give you any idea where you are, right?
Yeah.
Every room has to be blank.
Yes.
And I always look for, oh, maybe there'll be like a Jimmy Buffett CD.
Like, get some insight into the homeowner.
Yeah, that's true.
Give me a Frasier box set.
A Frasier box set.
Oh, God.
Oh, there you go.

Here's another sick twist.
Twisted.
I like twisted emotionally.
Hell yeah.
Did you ever hear the movie Damage with Jeremy Irons?
No.

Here's the premise of this one.
Jeremy Irons has like a tense relationship with his son.
And his son's about to get married to juliet binoche right by the way they look so old in these pictures you're pulling up but anyway
his son's about to get married and they have a father-son relationship that's fraught with a lot
of bullshit jeremy juliet binoche and jeremy irons the father get attracted to each other
and the father sleeps with his son's fiancee and that is like that's shakespearean exactly
oh that's hot and i'm watching that just going fuck yes oh yeah well it's really like porn with
good dialogue oh yeah it is it's like It's what a lot of these premises are.
You're just like, we shouldn't be doing this.
You're like, shut up, slut.
Oh, it's a better line.
Right.
Right.
Cinematography, too.

prisoner.
The dialogue is a little forced.
It's a little-

I get off at JFK and a huge mural.
That's a moral.
Yeah, that's a moral.
A huge mural of a new Broadway musical called Shucked.
I saw it with the corn.
Oh, my God.
I had a good laugh about that.
That's where we're at.
Yeah, there you go.
Look at this.
My friend is a theater person, and she goes,
I just feel sorry for all the people in that cast.
Because she knows what, just look at them.
Is it a musical?
What is it?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, it's got a kernel of truth.
Did they say that?
I'm just throwing that out there.
You see, you would be great on the team.
No, on the PR team for sure. Oh, yeah yeah you know what i mean yeah yeah yeah yeah you know

And his wife was like, that's so sweet.
He knows you.
See, his wife knows what's up.
Where Gallagher is short, that vision he had.
He's a good actor.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
I haven't heard anything.
He can sing, too.
Really?
He can sing.
He did like Guys and Dolls and shit.
This is a solid cast. You got P lapone and jane curtain holy shit from

little romances that always happen always you know or and the fucking fighting oh and the lighting

Exactly, exactly.
You mean Joe's real name is Arnie?
You know, that kind of thing.
Yeah, and you go in the set designer guy's garage and it's just swastikas and all that stuff.
I'm an alleged human trafficker.
How do they never convince jobs i guess they're people i i always say in job interviews well i'm a people person
and it usually helps me when i when i was looking for work back in the day so why do you want to

Again, I don't want to hurt you.
You know, it was upscale.
Oh, okay.

And I'm like, I just, I'm a people person.
And the guy looks at me and he goes, come on, man.

Yeah.
You know?
That's the worst.
And I said, but come on, I'm a people.
Yeah, I used to wait tables at this high end place.

And they're like, I'm 19 or whatever.
I'm hungover.
I'm sweating vodka.
And I'm like, ah.
And then you break it.
And then you have to redo it.

My friend put it best.
He said, it sucks to bomb at home.
You know?
Because if you bomb at the club, you go, all right, I'm getting out of here.
And you can wash it off a little at home.
But at home, you just go from there to the couch.
Your wife has seen you.
Yeah.
It's literally like a sex robot versus a live show.
Yes.
It's a real woman.
I feel like a live show is a real woman.
And the Zoom is like fucking a robot or whatever.
I don't, nothing.
Me and my wife have sex now on Zoom.
So that is a good thing for me.

Jeffrey Ross will be strapped to a tank and be like, oh, yeah, tell your face.
A lot of that.
Insulting random.
You've got to keep the morale up.
Yeah, that's true.
Absolutely.
Yeah, there's no funny people in Mad Max or Waterworld.
Nothing.
There's no comics.
Which is why I wasn't crazy about the mad max movies you nailed it for me
no fucking humor at all no comedy escape from new york's got humor that's true like brain and stuff
you got you know you got some weirdos that's true ernest borgnine yeah that's why he brings so much
humor yeah i love that guy but my friend we went and saw flower moon or whatever
the score yeah it's it's fun it's not fun it's it's fun i found it to be the feel-good film of
the holiday season yeah but my point is it didn't have that scorsese humor like casino has a lot of
jokes wolf of wall street has a lot of jokes and a part of this funniness that had no scorsese little uh irony or or you know serious
subject matter man i guess so you know what's scary is to see de niro i didn't see the movie
but i saw a couple of stills of de niro and he looks so serious oh he's great in it but yeah
yeah he's just incredible when he's like, you know, that fucking dead on.
Yes.
Like the movie, which did have humor.
Good.
Was it Goodfellas?
Goodfellas.
Where De Niro was whacking everybody like and they would stop at slow motion.
That meant you're dead.
Remember?
Yeah, right.
Yeah.
Him just smoking a cigarette.
Nah, nah, nah, nah.
That's a fucking cool shot.
Oh, man. Yeah. No, I'm with you. him just smoking a cigarette nah nah nah nah that's a fucking cool ass shot oh man
yeah no
I'm with you
it wasn't
there wasn't enough
like you need a release
of tension when
oh you saw it too
yeah I didn't
I didn't love it
to be honest
is it in the theater
is that where you saw it
Scorsese I go right to it
Tarantino I go right to it
I love Scorsese
who was the other one
Tarantino
me too
me too
I feel like you'd be good
in a Tarantino
I would love to be.
Kate Berlant got in the last one.
I saw that.
She was good.
I wrote her a message.
She was fucking cool.
You did?
Yeah, I was like, I just saw you in a little Hollywood.
Congrats.
Yeah, I should tell her that.
It's been enough time.
You missed the window.
I did miss the window.
Seven years ago.
Well, he's making one more.
No.
The movie critic, right?
That's what it's called?
Oh, yeah.
Tarantino.
Well, you've only got, what, two left?
I think this is it.
This is it?
No, I thought Hollywood Ending was his last one.
No, no, he's got one more.
Oh, I can't wait to see that.
The movie critic, oh, that must be fun.
His movies are horrible.
He can just do whatever he wants, and people will see it.
He's proved to me, too, that DiCaprio and Pitt are way more than just pretty boys.
Oh, yeah.
What fucking great actors do both of those guys are?
Well, I mean, DiCaprio came out of the gate with a special needs kid.
That's true.
What was that?
Gilbert Graves.
Oh, that's right.
Basketball Diaries, he was solid, too.
I didn't see the Jim Carroll thing.
Is that what it was?
I don't know.
I'm sorry.
It's not a Christmas movie.
No, I think I was right.
Basketball Diaries is about all these people.
It's about Jim Carroll.
Yeah, you're right.
Whoa.
His life as a high school basketball star.
47% on Rotten Tea.
Come on.
Bruno Kirby died so young.
Lorraine Bracco was the therapist in that.
Sopranos.
And Goodfellas she was in
movies are great to talk about huh is it because we all it's like a shared yes it's our shared
culture and sports too I guess sports if you're a sports fan is there is there not anything worse
than being in a group of people and a few of them aren't into sports.
Yeah.
And I'm very sensitive to that.
Like a lot of guys will just,
or a lot of people will just fucking keep going
and I'll be like, no, no, Dolores.
Dolores is bored.
Well, they don't like their basketball.
They don't like the women's basketball.
They don't watch it.
Yeah, I like it.
You're the only guy.
That's your number one.
No, it's not.
Basketball?
Oh, yeah, basketball.
Yeah, yeah.
What?
WNBA, I thought you were saying.
No, NBA is my number one.
But I like the WNBA, though.
I do.
Oh, yeah, I can watch that.
Yeah, I just love basketball first but yeah
you're what are you baseball no hockey hockey one and then base yankees and giants the giants are so
bad in football i'm a football tough to wash what they're just it's tough well now they never gave
a chance now it's like watching oh yeah you like the saints now the giants are like
watching just like horrible traffic jam like it's just like i don't even hear about the
giant here but the jets a little and then they got killed the other night the jets tease success
but you know and the aaron rogers thing was like the greatest cocktease how about that how about that the vaccine got him
no but uh you know the giants it was just like they went from like an interesting
playoff team last year to probably the worst team in the league it's pretty
they're really they're really yeah it really and it really hurt me because i was very
up for this year yeah like i need a. When the world is this fucked up,
sports are important.
Sports are huge.
The Rangers, they look like they're going to be
big time cup contenders this year.
They're fucking awesome.
I think when the streamers, these Apples or Amazon,
when they take sports, TV's done.
What else besides news and sports
is getting people to watch TV?
Yeah.
TV is a...
That's true.
Although it is nice to have an escape.
Like, when you turn on Netflix, at least you're not going to see the news.
At least you know...
Oh, yeah.
When you turn on Amazon...
That's true.
You're talking about streamers.
Like, you're talking about network TV is going to be done.
That's what I'm saying, yeah.
2027.
All they have is sports and news.
Yeah.
Actually, when the shit goes down, the news gets very good it goes way up
yeah it's like i'm down here and they're the technology has gotten so good with filming
shit and oh yeah they're on the ground and they're stabbings going on right next to them
and you're like smoking a joint and i order it for instance i order in
you i i love hurricanes you probably don't new orleans but in la to watch a thing go to category
five and when it makes landfall i always make sure i have like a pizza or something you know
what i mean like to watch watch. I get it.
I mean, you see that patio furniture going in Florida
and you're like, hey, all right.
This is good TV.
But I know that people have hurricane parties.
Oh, we had them.
In these fucking zones.
We had them, yeah.
That was a big deal.
School was shut down, so you got after it.
You got after it, yeah.
Sometimes it rained enough,
you get a canoe out there down Main Street, you know?
It was crazy in new york when
the because the fucking subways when they were flooded oh that was oh my god that's the future
that is what i'm talking about with the eco shit cities underwater you know what might be cool is
like you throw on like scuba gear and you just fucking use the train still moves you get on it
could be kind of futuristic yeah i like that's fun. Yeah. I like that.
And New Yorkers are like underwater still pushing to get on the train.
Right.
You get like a little mariachi band still coming on.
Yeah.
And for some reason.
Showtime, showtime, showtime.
And for some reason, the announcements are clearer underwater.
For some reason. That's hilarious. Nobody knows why. I like the announcements are clearer underwater. For some reason.
That's hilarious.
Nobody knows why.
I like the hobo coming on.
The government.
And the dangerous people are less dangerous underwater because they can't move as quick.
Or how about the one guy?
I was trying to work on a bit about when I made eye contact with a crazy guy in the train and that's like the closest you come to feeling like like a woman at a bar.
We accidentally lock eyes.
You're like, fuck, he's coming over.
Yeah, that's funny, man.
That's funny.
It's such a fucking awful moment where you're like, I saw a guy getting like yesterday I was walking around.
I saw a guy getting yelled at by just a crazy dude.
And you're just like the party's like, do I stay and make sure he's okay?
But you're like, I'm in a rush.
I can't, you know.
It's tough.
It's New York.
I usually am also in a rush.
So you grew up here.
What was it like on Staten Island in the 30s?
I mean, you know.
Big Jim Brady ran the town no um so i was born in brooklyn
and at nine years old my dad moved us to the country oh which was staten island and i gotta
tell you though his dad was chris di stefano yeah i gotta tell you though we were the own when i
when i moved there uh we were the only house on the block surrounded by woods.
And I thought, I felt like I was in a horror movie.
Like, I was like, fuck, man.
How old were you for this?
I was in my 40s.
That's an old joke, but very good.
That's a classic.
That's a classic.
So the island grew quickly.
Oh, my God, yeah.
But we were when they called the Verrazano Bridge the Guinea Gankplank.
Wow.
Because so many Italians moved to Staten Island.
Right.
And from Brooklyn.
And we were one of them.
Are you Italian?
My dad's Sicilian.
My mom's Jewish. Oh, okay. My dad's Sicilian. My mom's Jewish.
Okay. My dad's Sicilian.
They're both dead.
Fucking mob got them.
God damn it. Age takes us all.
My mom is Sicilian.
Is that right? Oh yeah.
Oh, that's why.
Do you identify as Jewish because of your mom or no?
I'm Italian.
Very Italian.
I'm in a rush.
Was it kind of nice going back?
Because you live in the country and you got to go back to the big apples.
Well, I was always a city kid.
I hated Staten Island.
Yeah.
Fuck Pete Davidson.
You know what I mean?
This whole thing about, oh, Staten Island, it is such a shithole.
Uh-huh.
You know?
Then and now.
God bless them, though.
That's what Don Rickles-
Well, Pete still lives there.
Pete's sticking with him.
And the Joker.
Sal Volcano lives there.
Chris D.
No, Chris is coming back.
Oh, okay. I have no interest whatsoever in Staten Island.
No.
There's nothing there.
There's no culture there.
Yeah, you feel disconnected.
Yes!
I got my first vax there.
No way.
It was great for that.
Your first vax?
My first vaccine.
Why there?
Because there was no-
Nobody.
Why?
No one gave it to me.
Oh, because that's a Trump era. That's like very gave. Oh, because there. That's a Trump.
That's like very red.
Well, that's when that's when it was like you were like really excited to get the vaccine.
I was too.
But so then I got it.
And oh, my God, it was so easy.
I was like, no appointments.
Then in Manhattan, it was like impossible.
Oh, yeah.
So it was.
Yeah, it was great.
I fucking I'm such an idiot.
I got to Johnson and Johnson.
Yeah.
And I thought I was doing great.
I was like i and i had
to go outside of la big time yeah by the way i love that they were like by the way there's one
bad one you're like out of three that's pretty bad yeah you're fucking you gotta have good ones
that's true that is true blood clots i heard for johnson and johnson yeah yeah i don't feel well
now don't listen don't listen to anything we say, medical. We're fucking idiots.
We'll put a little disclaimer on the bottom.
Still doing misinformation.
I hear it's blood clots.
We don't know shit.
No, no, no.
But I remember being excited to get it, and Staten Island was the spot.
Oh, look at that.
You got a Ferris wheel now?
I didn't know that.
I've never seen that.
It's the case for living on Staten Island.
A lot of mobsters moved there.
Well, Chris DeStefano, our friend, moved there, and he's back now.
But when he was living there, I remember doing this podcast on Staten Island.
He was like, you got to move here.
He was saying that the way you push a guy to come to a party, you know his name.
Yes, yes.
You know when the guy's like, no, this party is fucking great.
He wanted to get his friends there.
That's it.
You know what they say when it's a good neighborhood?
We're all booked up here.
Good point.
Good point.
There's not really any availability.
That's true.
That's true.
That's true.
But also, you're in Staten Island.
You have to get to this.
The city is where it's at.
Of course.
Because I'm-
There's nice parts of Staten Island.
I just, I wouldn't want to, you know, I wouldn't want to-
I wouldn't want to live there.
No.
I'd rather live in the other four boroughs by a lot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, just getting back here, the boat takes forever.
And then the bridge is $8 million toll.
It's unbelievable.
It's crazy tolls.
What is the bridge?
There's payment plans now for the Venezuela.
I know, right?
I believe it's $16.
It's unbelievable.
That's crazy.
When I was a child, it was a nickel.
No.
No, I'm kidding.
That sounds very funny that sounds funny
yeah i don't uh i wouldn't want to live there guinea gangplank
for owner no that's that's old oh no really oh well that's with easy pass oh that's the easy
yeah everybody's got an easy pass i know So I'm thinking of moving because my sister,
and we're very tight, my sister, again, not to hurt-
Six.
That I have that kind of relationship with family.
Family is everything to us.
Every comedian just-
Stop listening.
They're like, I can't-
Yeah.
Oh, no.
I had a disastrous upbringing.
Really?
My sister has
Yes
You perked up huh?
Yeah
It was fucking crazy
Touched?
It was fucking crazy
Huh?
Diddle?
Oh no
Oh okay
No that's the one thing I didn't get
Alright
Well you weren't cute enough
Did you get that?
No
That's funny that you broke
It's also funny to say
That's the one thing I didn't get
Yeah Yeah right Like it's a nintendo yeah two things i never got a teddy rug spin or molested
next christmas but um my sister's a house in woodstock new york and fucking woodstock the
hudson valley it's beautiful it's fucking beautiful and i'm thinking of moving there wow yeah and i'm
thinking of doing it as early as uh this summer i've been in is that easy to get to airport so
for the road from it's a pain in the ass no they're actually albany airport is pretty close
okay but it's a drag to drive into the city because it's two hours and you hit the gw it's like because i did a show in
bushwick when i was hanging in woodstock the last couple months and uh that was quite a ride oh yeah
into bushwick you know and you get used to the nature and the bucolic right the rural setting
it's so gorgeous there like i would get up every day look at that look at that
unreal and it's crazy i think it's that hudson valley man it's so close but so far it's yeah
it's just great man i love it and there's yeah just a bunch of sirens doing yoga look at that
hanging out yeah no it's it's amazing nature some reason, they've just got amazing food there, too.
It's just like-
It's an artist community.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it's the opposite of Staten Island.
Exactly.
It's the anti-Staten-
There, it's plumbers and firemen.
You know, everybody's talking about 9-11 on Staten Island.
Fucking 9-11.
Yeah.
Still.
Never forget.
Yeah, yeah.
9-11, 9-11. Yeah. Still. Never forget. Yeah, yeah. 9-11, 9-11.
Fucking never forget.
You know, constantly.
Yes.
Constantly.
He's like, shut the fuck up.
I know.
We're trying to forget.
We're trying to forget.
You know, in Woodstock, it's like, hey, man, what's up?
What's up?
And people are like, I know a guy in Woodstock who's been in a drum circle for about 30 years.
His family did an intervention.
They showed up at the drum circle, and they were like, all right, look, Steve, how many times can you celebrate the sun going down?
Because that's what they do.
They drum until it...
Yeah, and why no deodorant?
Just because you're drumming.
You don't have to smell like shit.
Absolutely.
I went to Occupy Wall Street.
A lot of drumming there.
Me too.
Yeah.
You went to it?
Good, good for you.
Yeah, I popped in.
Did a little man on the street.
Yeah, I wasn't really a part of it,
but I popped over i wanted
to see it i loved it i was on ted alexander that got fucking x'd out oh they fucking x that shit
a lot of what do you call it macing they were just mason people no i think was it bloomberg
yeah i think so i think so and what they did is that they just declared all these occupy movements
a health hazard that was the way they got rid of it and they just declared all these Occupy movements a health hazard.
That was the way they got rid of it.
And they just, whoop.
What was their reasoning for that?
Yeah, they said, yeah.
And that was before the pandemic.
They were like, it's just a health hazard.
They're leaving garbage.
There's feces.
Well, by the way, isn't that funny?
That's how people found out the outdoor contagion, the outdoor COVID wasn't contagious outdoors because of like the BLM protests.
Is that right? Is that what it was?
Oh, because nobody got it when they were protesting.
I think that was the thing. People were like, holy, because it was the same people scolding the spring breakers who were like, we got to protest.
And it's like, well, it seems like people aren't getting it outdoors.
That's true.
I don't know.
Yeah, I agree.
I remember, man, the pandemic was so crazy i remember
there's a great park right across the street from where i live in la again and i'm walking around
i'm walking around and one of my buddies it's so funny because i have a dog i meet all these people
i would never have anything to do with and this one dude asian guy he was like he had a mask on
outdoors and i was like you you
wear it outdoors huh and he's like dude i figure it's got to be in the air all around us and it
flipped me out you know yeah it flipped me out back then yeah that was back when we were cleaning
mail you know we're wiping down shit. I was napalming oranges.
Thank God for the peel.
That was like, I mean, fucking Lysol wipes.
Remember that?
Oh, yeah. I got to get more Lysol.
Lysol was unavailable.
Unavailable.
Remember, they ran out of toilet paper everywhere.
They ran out of Purell.
It was a wild time.
Luckily, I had the New York Post for toilet paper.
Really shitty newspaper. Good sports section now that's true and a great tweet twitter follow because their headlines are so ridiculous and
easy to to joke about i like them yeah they're fun to grab yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah man um you've
been have you been on the road a lot lately yeah yeah you you every weekend we're
pushing it oh every weekend i like the road i do too but the way i do it i go with my buddy
jt habersad comic we go city to city we don't just stay in for weekend. Okay. We're bopping like today, City Winery.
Tomorrow, Philly Punchline.
Oh.
Next day, Laugh It Up in Poughkeepsie.
Yep, yep.
Then I go to Dojo in Jersey.
Yep.
Then we go to Arlington, Virginia.
And then, like, so that.
So how many days in a row usually that's rowdy i don't
want to say yeah no it some of the trips are like two weeks whoa you know and some of the places we
stay a couple of nights but um it's a lot it's a lot like i like it in the sense that bam you're
in a new city and you're in a new club, new audiences.
And that's cool.
That's great.
You know, and I'd go through the South, too.
Yeah.
Louisiana.
I had a great time in Houma.
Oh, wow.
These fucking people.
I used to be afraid of like the South, Arkansas.
And I realized they fucking love to laugh.
Oh, yeah.
I used to be uptight about the politics and shit.
It's just bullshit.
It's just people, salt of the earth, down to earth.
It's amazing.
Yeah.
Some of the best shows I had are like, I think Knoxville, Tennessee was like my best crowd
in the year.
Oh, interesting.
Yeah.
It's like unbelievable.
Tennessee.
It's amazing, right?
Yeah. But it's just cities you wouldn't expect sometimes, and they fucking come out. Yeah. Unbelievable. Tennessee. It's amazing, right? Yeah.
But it's just cities you wouldn't expect sometimes, and they fucking come out.
Oh, Houma.
Houma.
No one goes there.
And it was packed.
I think it was a brewery.
Yeah.
It was packed.
And, you know, I talked about I'm an animal lover, which is hilarious down there.
And I say, I hate the way you people trick ducks with that bullshit
that's bullshit you know and i started and then after the show they these guys who own the place
were showing me videos of their dog dragging a deer through the woods and they said would you
like to come with us tomorrow on a on a hunt hunt? This is how like a deliverance type thing.
Yes,
exactly.
You know,
and I was like,
where's my Zoloft?
That's how that movie would start.
And the dog runs up and gives it to you.
Yeah,
man.
Oh,
it is great when you end up being the stereotype you want and they become the
one that they,
you know,
yeah,
you both kind of fill your fucking obligation. Yeah, yeah, yeah you got the new york jew with the zoloft you got
the court you're like right right good he is is that what you do i am no not right but i do take
all i take all this i have a big thing i've just you know i'm a cvs bag with me just you never know
i'll be gone for like two weeks you You never know what's going to happen.
Fuck yeah.
I'll go out for a long time too sometimes.
Do you?
Do you do that?
Let me ask you both.
Do you get exhausted on the road even though you like it?
Yeah.
Sometimes, yeah.
The food is shitty, yeah.
You get numb to it where you're just like.
That's true.
Where you're like by day five, you're just like, all right.
My day what?
Day five. Yeah, you're like another same all right. My day what? Day five.
Yeah, you're like another same day.
It's just bad for my brain.
I want to do different shit.
Even though the city is different, it's almost like the routine is too similar.
Yes.
And then the problem is people go, oh, you're going to this town.
You got to do this.
You're like, I have no time.
You land, you go to the gig.
You got to eat at our fried hot dog uh fried oreo and you're like
cool i've been on the road for two weeks i'm trying not to die yeah i'm trying so true man
i see you're working out too on i have been and that is because i go so off the rails on the road
do you guys party on the road yeah too much yeah me i smoke a little and it it it's fun in the moment man
and also after the shows i don't know about you guys i need to come down you gotta come down yeah
of course of course it's insane like tonight coming back to new york i'm gonna have a lot
of friends i haven't seen yeah for a long time it's gonna be insane and i'm trying to be clean
it's tough i'm trying to be clean.
It's tough.
I'm trying to be clean because I don't know about you guys, but when I party a little, I have no interest in working out.
None.
Of course.
Of course.
You're human.
But the worst with drinking is you go, man, I had a bad set.
I need a drink.
Then you have a good set and you're like, let's have a drink.
Yes.
Totally.
It works.
Then you have an okay set.
You're like, well, I deserve a drink.
An okay set. I don't settle for the okay you can't because if you become an okay like that was okay right
and you got to get this all in before 2027
you know that's well you and you have a ton of funny shit out there i mean the uh in ruins is
the other is the other recent one that was a killer special i loved it yeah i really i i i
have a secret weapon the guy who directs me also helps me because i'm all over the place in my sets
i don't have a very written thing i'm like like, I'm going to go with this idea.
So the director, Stephen Fine Arts, do you guys know Stephen?
Anyway, he fucking directed both my specials.
And now he directs.
He directed Marin's last special.
He's great.
And he helps me organize my material.
I tape everything.
And he actually has guys go through it and say this bit, this bit.
Wow.
And that's kind of how i
work that's nice but i need to get more discipline with the writing i'm very like into the performing
well you're great at it i love it the loosey goosey keeps it authentic and fun right right
you don't be too written i'm too I think. I could use a little Eddie.
No, but you do a lot of off-the-cuff shit.
I do it at the end. You do, too.
Yeah, just because I'm bored with the set.
Yeah, of course.
And I want to do new shit.
I also, yeah, you get-
Isn't it great?
I mean, that's why I feel like that's the rush of it.
I used to open for a tell, and I and he would i could tell be so bored with the
written stuff that he would just bring you up on stage at the end and you would just fuck around
with the tell which by the way it's like that's however quick you think you are you're not quicker
than david so it would be a thing where i'd be like well first off i'll never get a high self
esteem working with this guy like i'm never gonna be like i'm fucking funny you're like oh no you just you're like i'm fine i'm whatever he's he's the quickest he is insane i this is what i skank fest
right um i saw you there yeah right right he came up after me right and i had just finished
like a rant about the military industrial complex and a tell comes up and he goes wow this guy is uh
really for the people and it's funny because he looks like he makes his own ice cream
i didn't even know what that meant but it was so funny so funny i saw him last night at gotham
he was at gotham you saw him last night at gotham yeah and he had some great new stuff and he had a
moment where he went oh and the crowd was like honey huh? And he goes, sorry, I had a little Fetterman.
I was like, what a great way to cover that.
Oh, shit.
Oh, man, it's just so funny to say that.
I mean, we talk about him so much in this podcast
because we just all...
Is that right?
Well, I just feel like every New York comic loves Dave Attell,
so his name just comes up so much.
And he's so New York.
I don't hardly ever see him out in L.A.
No.
He's outside smoking a cigarette when he's there.
He's not in the club.
He's outside having a cigarette.
That's true.
I remember seeing him once at the improv in L.A.,
and it was just so weird.
It's weird.
We both were like, what?
And I'm like, I know.
And he's like, I know.
It just didn't feel right.
Yeah.
But it's so fun to run into him.
I know what you're thinking.
I look like I work in gun safety.
Yeah, he's great.
Yeah, I remember one of my favorite Attell memories was like, I remember we did Tarrytown
Music Hall and we were driving back and he was so fucking good, but he was like, I stink.
I'm the worst.
I'm the worst fucking comic.
Because he was doing, did he feel like he was doing the same stuff?
Why did he say that? Because he does it all the time. He'll kill and he feel like he was doing the same stuff why did he
say that i because he does it all the time he'll kill and he'll say that and i was like is he
serious oh yeah oh yeah so he's a real comic no i mean that's real but isn't it weird but like
because we're like mad that he feels that way but a part of us is like that keeps him great i don't
know it does well isn't that the dunning kruger the dumb guy thinks he's smart and the smart you
know the bad comic thinks he's brilliant and hilarious and then the great comic
thinks he's a hack but i remember driving back with him being like dave what are you talking
about we all think you're the best and he was like well i'm funnier than you guys oh that's the best
wow good that he knows that because sometimes he's so down on yourself you're like do you know
how great you are but i think he knows a little bit. And he'll still zing you. He's the fucking, he's the best, you know?
How long did you tour with Dave?
Not that long.
