Doolittle that year because there's a great book on it called pictures at a revolution Wow what a year crazy year Dr. Doolittle supposed to be a piece of trash well guess who's coming to the pod today our buddy There we go. Come on. We're making drinks here. Speaking of the Groneys. Great to see you.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Hey. What's up guys? Happy to be back. Good to have you back. Oh you got Ian finance? Ian no finance. We had another guest but he apparently bailed so. He bailed?
Starting point is 00:03:57 We wanted to do a two-parter, we ought to do a two-person show but All right, it's gonna be great with this even better. You just took my shine. Yes This is great Sam. I've been seeing this all over congrats. You see people are talking about it. He's worried cuz it's not on the home Oh, no, I think this is I think this is better Yeah, I mean like it's all like it's all over the things. Cheers, by the way. Hey. A little boulevardier.
Starting point is 00:04:29 There we go. Cheers, man. Let's drink to Sam's special. To the special. Hey, you've changed. I was literally- On video, not on the home page. We'll get it there.
Starting point is 00:04:37 Give it a search. I was getting a haircut and I was planning to go home and watch it and then you hit me up. I was like, oh yeah, I'll come through. Hey! Yeah, I'm a fan. I still watch the things. Really? He watches comedy.
Starting point is 00:04:50 Yeah, Joe List always makes fun of me because I like watch comedy. I'm the same way. I'll check in. Yeah, you too. Yeah. See the new Gaffigan, see the new Percazzi. I watch a little, but I'm scared it's gonna come into my head, one of the premises. It does happen.
Starting point is 00:05:02 Yeah, that does happen. I know, it worries me. But the flip side of that is what what if you're doing a bit, and he's got it from two years ago, and you worked your tail on it, and then you didn't realize he had it the whole time. That's gonna happen regardless. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:14 I guess so. Because Jimmy Carr said that happened with you, where he did a bit that you did. That's right. And he called me and said, how do you feel about it? And I go, you can put it out, but mine's already out, so you're gonna get shit. And he was like, I'll deal with it. And he put it go you can put it out, but mine's already out So you're gonna get shit and he was like I'll deal with it and he put it out. He put it out Yeah, I mean I've seen their stuff where I've seen like rock and Louie have like a similar thing
Starting point is 00:05:33 And I'm like they're close friends that watch these hours black people. Yeah He did say the n-word quite a bit yeah, yes, there was a time I remember when I started comedy where every white comic needed an n-word bit cuz it really that was like the time that me But I think the difference like you said I think sometimes with the urban comics like they'll know they won't watch comedy at all Yeah, and then like they'll literally be doing bits and I'm like, oh that's on this. Yes Yes, but it did not special sometimes. Yes, yes. But they're not seeing it, but they're like, I didn't see it.
Starting point is 00:06:06 I'm like, yeah, but it's out there. And they tend to not give a shit. You're like, I think Jeff Ross has that bit. And they're like, I have that bit too. Then they'll go, he stole it from me. I'm like, he did it in 91. They're like, ah, fuck him. Yeah, I remember one time when I was starting off,
Starting point is 00:06:20 I told a comic that, a famous comic had his joke in the special and like he was Like an open mic and he was like, yeah, he stole it Like yeah, I did it at like Caroline He must have saw me this is like a man it was deal you believe like a huge comic right? Yeah, he stole it from me. He's peeking he's peeking behind the curtain Bill Maher's monologue he did a bit I used to do and you're like he didn't see behind the curtain Yeah, it was all that bill maher's monologue. He did a bit I used to do and you're like he didn't see but the monologue is different cuz they have a whole writing status
Starting point is 00:06:49 Yeah, they could have seen you do yeah true Yeah, the monologue is SNL get shit for that where they're just like cuz you know the way we're worried I mean they have that pressure cooker where it's like fuck. I got five days to right right So maybe they'll panic and like oh fuck This is it cuz I remember I thought of a bit once, and it turned out to be an SNL sketch. It was the other way around. I remember that bit.
Starting point is 00:07:09 But I, and I was like, it felt like a very me bit. Great bit. The angle was like... Halloween? Halloween, yeah, like that's the best day for a registered sex offender to knock on your door and be like, I'm new to the neighborhood, I'm a registered sex offender,
Starting point is 00:07:22 because you could pretend it's like a costume. Yes. And they did, and they did that as a sketch, and I was like, oh fuck new to the neighborhood, I'm a registered sex offender, because you could pretend it's like a costume. And they did that as a sketch, and I was like, oh fuck, I immediately dropped it. But it happens both ways. You ever had a bit where you were like, but I really came up with this? Yes, yes, of course. I know they have some similar, but I came up with this.
Starting point is 00:07:38 I really wrote this, I've never seen him do it. That's why it's so hard to drop it, because you're like, no, this has come out of my head. Here, yeah, that sucks. I feel like a lot of comics are like, I'll just write him do it. That's why it's so hard to drop it. Because you're like, no, this has come out of my head. Here, yeah. That sucks. I feel like a lot of comics are like, I'll just write a new bit. I'm like, yeah, but it's not. It's not easy.
Starting point is 00:07:51 It's not easy. That's like saying, I'll just have another kid. You're like, yeah, but I'm losing a kid. I heard Louis say that once. Just write another bit. That's a good point. I heard Louis say that on ONA once where he was talking about how Dennis Leary just took his I'm an Asshole.
Starting point is 00:08:03 Yes. Like, I'm an Asshole. That song was a Louis bit. Yeah. And he's like, yeah, he took it from just took his I'm an Asshole. Yes. Like I'm an Asshole, that song was like a Louie bit. Yeah. And he's like, yeah, he took it from me, but I was like, whatever, yeah, he said that, I'll just, I'll write a new bit. And I was like, man, Louie was on fire at that point.
Starting point is 00:08:13 I know. Yeah, that attitude to just be like, yeah, I'll write a new fucking. Well, writing a new bit doesn't just mean writing, you gotta come up with a premise. Sure. Out of the air, so it's not that easy. And a bit is like, you know, there's a thing of like,
Starting point is 00:08:25 I wrote it, I enjoy doing it, I'm not tired of it yet. Like, once I'm tired of it, yeah, I'll write a new one. But if you're not tired of it yet, you're ever being an actor and you're like, I just wanna do this bit, like wait till I, and then you have to drop that one. I know. I always wonder, cause I'm not gonna name any names,
Starting point is 00:08:40 but I'll go to the seller and I'll see four comics in a row do Trump. Oh yeah. And I'm like, oh man, that would suck because we don't, I don't really do impressions but imagine the guy before you did an impression you're about to do and the guy before him did one. Yeah, it's probably gonna get worse too, right? Yeah. He's gotta not book four impressionists back to back.
Starting point is 00:08:58 That's not fair too. I guess you're right but Trump is so popular on tape. Just you look at the line to be like airy Spears You're on a subway and like homeless guy walks through asking everybody for money And then he closes the door and then the door opens on the other side another guy comes Yes Same thing I used to have a bit about that about how it like the last one like the first one came in and was Doing like a song and dance and this guy just asked for money. I'm like oh you got to step up your game
Starting point is 00:09:22 Yeah, yeah Do a Trump impression or something. Yeah. Yeah and the thing is that the seller like because it is the seller like a lot of them are like pretty good. Yeah yeah they're great. It's not like one is so much better than the other they're all like oh yeah this is pretty good. Yeah and it's still better than the crowd work guys who go up after each other and they ask the same questions. Oh I'm so embarrassed Comics do that they're watching them like did he talk to this table look I talked to all of them like fuck Yeah, I was gonna ask them if that was his daughter his wife. Oh
Starting point is 00:09:53 I feel like before you go up for someone's like oh, is there a girl with big boobs up there? You want to talk about her? I don't happen. I don't care. Yeah, it happens to me. I'm like I don't they meant after the show Yeah, I'm always like I don't care. Yeah, they're like, oh, yeah the couple in the front they just met He's from Australia By the way, we're just talking about will right? You can really do some jokes There's a time I was like I was I've been at this other way I'm like it would be kind of nice to they just ban crowd work. Oh
Starting point is 00:10:29 I don't like to do it I don't like to do it in the city like sometimes it happens like naturally sure follow the seller But like I don't like the guy after me having to follow it. You know it's like because I'm on the road I'm headline. I'm like it's my show. I'm doing an hour 10 or so. So I'm like I'll just fucking have some fun. On the road of course. But yeah in 15 minutes I'm like oh I'm here to work on shit. Yeah of course. I was at the cellar once with Jimmy, with Fallon.
Starting point is 00:10:55 He was watching, he just wanted to watch comedy. Like he just was like I wanna get back until I wanna watch comedy. And we were all sitting in the back at the VU and we watched like the first three comics and they all did crowd work all did crowd like the host and he was like, what is this? And Michael was like, this is like kind of comedy now. Yes That'd be so funny if that just influences monologue the next day. Yeah, look at this bitch in the He's like, I kind of wanted to see bits and stuff. Yeah, I get it. Yeah, he's old school
Starting point is 00:11:22 I mean, he's like, I mean he came out an arrow I mean crowd work when I started at least was like almost like unique to New York I guess some LA guys but like you host on the road would never do crowd work They would do their ten minutes right they do their ten minutes of material trying to build an act. Yeah, I Guess you know the hosts were veterans in New York and the hosts on the road right were newer newer Yeah, it was weird back then I remember being on the road were newer. It was weirder back then. I remember being on the road and you'd be in the green room and you heard the host go into the crowd.
Starting point is 00:11:49 You're like, what's going on? And you would put your ear to the door, like, is everything all right? Cause it was like a strange moment to do crowd work. Now it's go to. Yeah, I feel like people who have a weird freedom to it where I'm like, this isn't even good. Like, how are you this free?
Starting point is 00:12:01 Like, cause crowd work, there is a thing of like, you don't know where it's gonna end, right? There's no punch line. So I'm like, how are you this open to cuz crowd work there is a thing of like you don't know where it's gonna end right? There's no punch. I'm like how are you this open to finding something and find nothing consistently? Yes, and then they'll keep asking waiting for something. Yeah, what do you do? Oh, you don't work in a circus. All right accounting Okay, what do you do? Oh, you're with your wife. God damn it. They're just waiting for some crazy answer I'm like, this is not what it is. Yeah. Yeah, it's tough man. And you want to build the act there. I mean It's not what it is. Yeah, it's tough, man. And you wanna build the act there.
Starting point is 00:12:24 I mean, yeah, I'm at a loss for it. They say the bubble is bursting, but it the fuck does. Yeah, that's what I feel. I made it a point to put not any crowd work in this special. There's one moment I couldn't delete just because a woman booed me. That was a great moment.
Starting point is 00:12:39 I had to keep that in because I thought it was such a perfect fucking moment. But I went to the crowd just to fuck around because I did four shows, I'll get some extras. Behind the scenes shit for Punch Up or something like that. You should be following us all on PunchUp.live by the way. Are you on there? No, no.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Get on there, good for moving. Is it a new thing? Because I said I wanted to be like first on the next new thing. It is, yeah. It's PunchUp.live slash Mark Norma to PunchUp.live slash Samorail. Get on it.
Starting point is 00:13:04 Our name slash sign up if you want to make it easy, but dude it's a... See, you would build a mailing list, you put exclusive content on there. You know, Instagram, certain stuff is like too offensive, they'll bury it. Yeah, yeah. You can put whatever you want on here. It's like nice that it's like a kind of a free speech thing that's not run by wackos. Okay. So, and it's just good to build up a base and you just can blast them whenever you not too much
Starting point is 00:13:27 You know, I'm like, yeah, you're spam them But like when you got a special out or you come into their city, it's can do the geo located thing So that's pretty cool. It's worth it and the mailing list is yours He doesn't keep it if you want to take it with you when you leave. Oh really take it with you. Oh, that's great That's great mailing list is good. It's back cuz it's back, baby I think it was the thing before yeah, it helps you know where the people are who your friends are exactly where they live You know what they're watching what they're not watching. Yeah, you get all the analytics I just met felt like I
Starting point is 00:13:57 Anyone can do if you're a funny comic you should be able to be good at crowd work I think if you're a funny person, so I think the hour think the hour, if you can just put out joke, joke, joke, like that's I think the thing now. Well how many, oh sorry. No, no, no, go ahead. How many crowd work moments are, you know, you remember the Chris Rock, Black Wheel vs. N-Words, you remember the Louis CK bank joke or whatever.
Starting point is 00:14:18 How many people are quoting when you ask that guy where you got his shirt? Yeah, I mean, you look at somebody like, like right now when I watch this crap, I'm like, this is like pretty good. Like it's well-produced, like it's, I'm like, I don't really see crowds. You got the Ted Talk.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Yeah, yeah, I'm like, it's like a perfect interaction. He needs both hands. They got a wild story, it just called, I'm like, you don't generally see it like that. No, no. Stuff like that. Yeah, he's kicked it up a notch. Yeah, he's, but yeah, it just called, I'm like, you don't generally see it like that. No, no. Stuff like that. Yeah, he's kicked it up a notch. Yeah, he's the, but yeah, like you said,
Starting point is 00:14:49 it's usually the bits. I've never had like a crowd word clip go viral. All of my clips ever went viral was bits. Really? Yeah, I've had crowd word go viral. I've had a couple crazy moments, so it's like, I just always had people there, so every once in a while, the moment's so crazy, and if you have the right comebacks and lines.
Starting point is 00:15:06 Right, yeah, yeah. It's gotta be a crazy moment though. It's gotta be crazy. Speaking of- Oh baby! Audience attacks. We got three New Yorkers here. Yeah, we gotta play this clip. Speaking of crazy punch lines,
Starting point is 00:15:19 I was randomly punched as one of those people just gets punched on the street. Yeah, yeah. Some guy just on my block turned the corner. Yeah, okay. You don't have to sit. That's fine. Let's cut that out.
Starting point is 00:15:33 Let's bleep. Okay, he turned the corner and as soon as I, he turned the corner, I'm walking right into him, towards him, he took like a plastic bag, like a, I don't know, from a convenience store, did like a whip around movement and threw it right in my face. And that's something really heavy in it. Damn.
Starting point is 00:15:51 Yeah, I would say like a can of soup at least. Whoa! Wow! Because I had a cut, I don't know if it's gone, but I went like this because it came right to my face. Oh man, that's powerful. I put up the defensive posture. And as soon as I pulled my hand.
Starting point is 00:16:02 You were able to block it. Yeah, yeah, I was as close as I am to Ian Or even closer Wow And as soon as I come down from my defensive stance overhand right right What's the guy is he a big dude or what he was fit I say he's about mark side maybe a little taller Is like like you acidic Jew? Well, I showed the pic- I've actually
Starting point is 00:16:28 the video here if you want to see it. We got the video! So how'd you got the video? I went to my building, it's in my block. And I was like, hey I was just attacked, I want to put up a picture on the building so that we know who to look out for. They were like, can't help you. You guys were like, yeah right, you want to play it on We Might.
Starting point is 00:16:44 So the building said, can't help you without a warrant Yeah, so you got a warrant no, so I went to the next building Uh-huh, and I I appealed to their superintendent He was like I live in this neighborhood with my kids you can have whatever you want. Just find the guy Yeah, let's see this scary dude dude but you got him back oh yeah so that's areas oh wow yeah that's him I was hoping he wasn't this is the alley hey he could have been any you could have been any race yeah I would have preferred if he wasn't this right I showed it to my neighbor and he's a
Starting point is 00:17:20 man that's the bag right to the face there is a real battle and here's the bag right to the face. There he is. Wow, this guy's angry. Is that a real battle? And here's the reverse angle. So I'm in this little area where you can't see me. Okay. Two cameras are there. So you're going to see the bag fly here. The bag deflecting off my face or my arms. And then there goes the bag. Oh my God. And then he delivered a punch right there.
Starting point is 00:17:42 And I take out a little pepper spray. For you to walk him down. And I give him a little shot. And then he's coming back. That wasn't enough. I got him again really good there. Nice. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:53 Was he hurting there? Well, all he did was he turned to me and he was like, I was expecting tears and- Yes, like the movies. Like the movies? He was like, all he did, he was like, you got me. He just pointed at me and said, you got me. This is like Ronnie, like Ronnie Chang ends the special on a bit like this that this happens to him
Starting point is 00:18:08 Yeah, like some guy just I think it was a girl. I was Simonage is gonna do it Like he just attacks him and then just walks off in this way and I was like that doesn't sound believable but it happens Yeah, happens. Wow easy Did you and you went after him look at you? I know he's walking him down No, I got him that two times it was he in pain from the pepper spray you got me That's all he said I thought this shit's supposed to hurt. I know yeah, I know I gave that to my wife Well the cops came after the cops came to your wife Either way she sprayed me with it
Starting point is 00:18:47 And I told the cops I was like I was expecting tears. He was like, usually this affects people. He was going on adrenaline, it's probably affecting the block away. Yeah. Yeah. Isn't pepper spray illegal? Was that legal to her? Well, I'm glad you said that.
Starting point is 00:18:56 So I told the cops, I was like, well, I pepper sprayed him. And they're like, do you wanna go find him? I was like, yeah, I wanna find him. And they're like, no, no, no, do you wanna do a drive along and we'll help you find him? I thought they meant like, you want to get him and So I was like yeah, and he but what does that what does that mean? Just fine just be like that's the guy and that's it and then they would arrest him. Oh really yeah
Starting point is 00:19:13 Okay, so then the guy the cop pulled me aside, and he was like I have to tell you that he could press charges on you Yeah, cuz you hit him with pepper spray. It's a salt oh on you. Yeah, because you hit him with pepper spray. It's a salt. Oh, where's the white privilege? What's what he did? That's also salt. So we both press charges on each other, probably both dropped them. And I was like, I don't want my fate in the hands of a crazy man. Also, hitting a guy in the face is just a misdemeanor, right? If it's not a weapon, it's not. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. So it's not like they're going to keep you. No, he'd get out an hour. This your first time attacked? You've been you're a New're in New York I mean since high school, but I've been mugged in high school But not as an adult who the fuck's gonna attack this guy in a Hawaiian shirt
Starting point is 00:19:51 What kind of monster do you have to don't look like an undercover cop my shirts a surprego for? It's a punchable mug What a prick I know what drugs you think he was on I think he was just crazy mmm I think he was just crazy cuz I got to see the video of him walking on another block with their cameras and he's talking Himself throwing his hands up in the air doing this or oh Good I didn't see except fucking headphones. That's like the drugs you see now in the street though That's not like when I was growing up the drugs now that people were like angry to themselves like oh fuck
Starting point is 00:20:21 Yeah, that's gotta be drugs. I see so many people like that walking through the street Yeah, that was actually gonna be. I see so many people like that walking through the street these days. That was actually gonna be one of my peeves. Like when you text me, I was literally experiencing a peeve. When you text me, I was like, I got it immediately because I was on the train. This is the second time it happened to me. I've been on the train and a person sits next to me
Starting point is 00:20:38 and starts literally shooting hell. Whoa. Like middle of the day. Like I've only seen it twice my whole life and it's both happened like on the train like studio I mean Wow Yeah, I've seen it all over. Yeah, but the train is so intimate So yeah, like next to me like as well as you are that's crazy as close as you are and you know

When the first episode came out, a couple of my boys kinda sent it to me, and they were kinda sending to me like, yeah, like I knew it. Cause I guess it's cool to think that everyone else,
Starting point is 00:25:47 that you're not the dumb one, that everyone else is dumb and you've been right all along. And that kinda confirms it. Like all this other stuff's been wrong, I'm right.

Have you seen this? Pull this shit up, it's fucking beautiful. This is like why I love comedy, man. She's a fucking legend. Is it funny?
Starting point is 00:31:19 Oh yeah. Oh okay, okay. It doesn't, it's not at first, I mean it was a suicide, but she makes it funny. That's why she's such a fucking legend. Yeah, no, she was great. I mean, her- I can do the short version of it.
Starting point is 00:31:29 I mean, she basically builds up how brutal it is, you know, to lose your husband to suicide, and she's out with her daughter, they're at this fancy restaurant, they both can't say a word, and she basically, she looks at the menu, and she goes, oh my God, the prices. He'd be glad he killed himself.
Starting point is 00:31:43 And she gets the first laugh out of the kid. Oh fuck that's a beautiful thing that she had that she had that ability. That's great. She's just so cool I don't know if you saw the doc on her. I love the doc. Well no we no no no it was this might be it but go skip to the end because it's I mean I just told the joke. I mean Seinfeld said the same that everybody hates Seinfeld right now he's having having a tough month, but is he oh, yeah Oh, he's getting dragged online like crazy. That's but it's but do they hate him I think it's some ways probably more fans than ever
Starting point is 00:32:12 Yeah, maybe but he's getting a lot of shit in a lot of shit And he's getting the genocide Jerry shit at the shows whatever But he did that speech and like ten people walked out at a college and the news grabbed that all these people walk out on Jerry whatever but the speech was actually really poignant but no one talked about the speech because they just talked about the walkout but he had a whole thing about like this generation is very kind you guys are all about compassion and all that but you're not great laughers so you got to learn to laugh at dark shit or you're gonna have a long fucked up sad life yeah and it's like what you said gonna have a long fucked up sad life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:45 And it's like what you said. It's a great message. It's a great message. And it's also like that, what she said is like healing. Like she, maybe it's because that generation went through more. Yeah. I mean, because I think it's like if you don't make it, when you go through something that traumatic like a husband committing suicide and you don't make a joke out of it, you're
Starting point is 00:33:01 fucking finished. Yeah. Yeah, man. Comedy is like, I mean, I don't wanna, you don't wanna get too deep on it, but like a couple years ago, when I lost my mom, I lost my mom to cancer. And I remember like on her last days,
Starting point is 00:33:12 we were in the hospital room and it was still some of the funniest things that happened. Really? It was obviously the saddest thing, but like comedy still ensues. Like you still find a humor. Like at one point, one of my family members hired like a witch doctor to come in.
Starting point is 00:33:26 That was supposed to heal her. And he came in and like Crocs and like camel, like camels and we were like, who the fuck is that? And the guy who attacks Elicu? Yeah, yeah, yeah. They were like, oh, that's the guy. And he like looks at it and he's like, she's gonna be okay. And she like died like a couple hours ago.
Starting point is 00:33:40 I was like, that was, if she were alive, she would think that was hilarious. Yeah. I think like that this is- You do a bit about it. No, I haven't done a bit of it It's so great But it was so like it was like till this day like you hold back We were holding back tears just laughing at how funny and ridiculous this was and he got paid like $5,000 Family member made him like $5,000 Family member made him like $5,000. What are you Dominican?
Starting point is 00:34:13 Cuz you know that he was I guess in a way he's like this is my last dying thing to try to help yeah Yeah, it's funny. That's a gig to that guy. His agent was like I got you a dead lady in Queens Yeah, yeah literally like we walked into the room and he was like in the, like we were talking and we didn't notice that there was like a guy in like a rain jacket, cargo shorts and crocs like in the corner and he's like praying and then we were like, we figured it was like a guy cleaning the hospital room and then we look, we were like who the fuck is that? And then my sister's like, oh that's like, that's the witch doctor that's here to heal. And then he like comes over and he he's like he like looks at her He's she's like he's like she's that like 60% now. That's what he said. She's not like 60%
Starting point is 00:34:54 Yeah, he's like she's like like 60% and we like obviously but we couldn't we want to die laughing We also don't want to disrespect right right and then he like does like three things and he's like she's gonna be okay Yeah Like just do like three prayers and laughing it made like five grand. Yeah, and who paid for this? Oh, uncle my oh my god. I'm sure he gets his money up front cuz this guy Yeah, then he called before miracles then he called us like later on that night and was like this is kind of crazy But he called us later on that night and was like the guy just called me and said he's he's in The cemetery praying so he should be okay Wow, did you hear anything when she passed away? Did he say anything? Yeah, he said you called me too late. Yeah
Starting point is 00:35:34 Did he do crowd work on? He said you had it was too late. She was already at like 60% you gotta call me like I'm not even making so I know it sounds great Did he do some voodoo shit and sprinkle stuff? It was so not like it, cause like I'm figuring like if you pay me $5,000, I'm gonna do those things. Yes. I might come with like a bottle, you know,
Starting point is 00:35:54 I'll pour Bodega Cat in the corner. Yes, something. And like, you know, I'll burn a candle. He didn't do any of that. What? Like he was just like. No showmanship. No showmanship.
Starting point is 00:36:02 He was just like. Damn. And then just walked out. That is hilarious. I'm so sorry about your mom and dad. Yeah, no, of course. You guys are really close. No showmanship. No showmanship. He was just like, and then just walked out. That is hilarious. I'm so sorry about your mom about that. Yeah, no, of course. You guys were really close.
Starting point is 00:36:09 Yeah, yeah, we were super, super close. Yeah, no, but that was, I mean, if she were alive, the funny thing about that is like if she were there, she would be like, what the fuck are you doing to him? Like get the fuck out of here. Like she would just call it out. So it was so funny that she wasn't there to be able to be like, get the fuck out of here. Right, right. She was under, she was like, nah. Oh yeah, it was in funny that she wasn't there to be able to be like get the fuck out of it, right? She was under she was like, oh, yeah, it was the last days like she had she died from cancer She wasn't even speaking. She was you know cancer's like
Starting point is 00:36:32 Terrible, it's brutal like when you like the last days But um, but yeah, it was so funny cuz it was her road of like call people out on their bullshit But I said all that to say It made me like love comedy even more, cause I was like, comedy just sleeps through us, like through the cracks of the door. You can't keep it out, like it's impossible. You need it, I'm sure in like times of war,
Starting point is 00:36:53 I'm sure those foxholes were hilarious. Right. It's the shit they were saying. Yeah. It's the only way to cope. Right. That's what they say when they stop joking, like they're fucked.
Starting point is 00:37:00 Yeah. What would you, are there any comedies that you remember of funny things you remember watching that you were like, oh fuck, just like numb the pain a little? After? Yeah. After not so much, after for me it was standup.
Starting point is 00:37:13 Like, and I don't want to get too deep in the standup thing, but it kind of showed me that a lot of times we try to downplay like the stuff we do, like, oh, we're just telling dick jokes, whatever. We're just doing the whatever, we're clowns, whatever. But in that moment, like I remember spending the whole day at the hospital with my mom and then going to the cellar and doing spots, and it was the only thing
Starting point is 00:37:31 that would drag me out of that depression. And then also I realized that there was people in the audience that was going through the same thing and we were providing a service for them. So stand up wise, it made me respect it more. And it also made me more confident in the sense, you know how sometimes you're on stage and it might be like Chappelle or Louie in the back and you're like fuck like I want to do good or
Starting point is 00:37:49 whatever it made me be more confident of like I don't give a fuck who's in the back like this is me I do this this is what I do I'm like I've been doing this I put into work this is what I do I'm on stage is my time so that's great gave me that confidence that's good yeah it is weird about stand-up you ever get the guy in the street like thank you for what you do man, you got me through some tough times and you're like, oh I'm just telling jokes, you know, that's great, I'm not a fireman. But it does help. It does help. A ton. I'm sure you've done the cancer benefits and stuff like that. Yes. I've done those things where like literally like-
Starting point is 00:38:20 I bombed them. I'm a bombing one and going, what is this, the cancer benefit? And they're like, yes. I'm like, oh yeah, fuck what is this, the cancer benefit? And they're like, yes. I'm like, oh yeah, fuck. I've done one for literally a dying 15-year-old girl. Wow. And on her last days, and the parents coming up and being like, thank you so much. This is the darkest time of our lives. We haven't laughed like this.
Starting point is 00:38:38 I'm up there, I'm like, you think you're dying. This is real. Yeah, I mean, we do serve a purpose. I know it don't sound like it because we just you know Write it in these bits, but yeah, no, I know you mean those those People fucking dealing with real shit. Yeah, and I've had those people come up to you with it Like I could never do what you do. What do you do the Navy SEAL? Yeah, I think you probably figured They say in times of tragedy the two things that go up are entertainment and booze. Oh really so we got both Yeah, well that makes sense right yeah
Starting point is 00:39:10 Sometimes like you hear you ever hear like a comic doing a bit. That's like so Positive to them like it's not deprecating at all you're like there's no fun I like is just how successful and how much I get yeah Like it's just how successful and how much I get Where the comics are just like this guy sucks that sucks. That's it's never they suck Yeah, everything else in the world is horrible, but I dated another crazy woman like sounds like there's a pattern here Yeah, yeah, maybe you're not a catch either right yeah, that's that's that one's about me I look at it. I find sometimes like one of the funniest things, like when the, like not the darkest, but like the most awkward shit happened to me, I'm like, well, this is going
Starting point is 00:39:52 to be a bit, so it's okay. Like I had, one time I had a girl try to like, and she was upset, whatever, but she was trying to make fun of my, like, of me, like sexually. And like, she thought it would hurt my feelings. And I was like, this is honestly hilarious and I'm probably gonna tell this on stage. I have to fact that you told me this and she kind of was annoyed.
Starting point is 00:40:10 I was like, I don't care. Erectile dysfunction is hilarious. It's a bit like getting hard, it's not funny. Yeah, that's true. Dude, I have a, it's literally the joke I use in the trailer of my special is a joke with my dick not working. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:26 And it's literally a joke. I pulled out and I was like, I had to write this down. Yeah. Yeah, I had to. I literally ruined it. She's like, how can this get any worse for her? Now it's just my dick not working. I'm like, I thought of something funny.
Starting point is 00:40:38 That is great, you know? That's gold. Comics shouldn't use blue chew. We need the material. Yeah. No one wants to hear about how you fucked all night. No. They want blue chew, we need the material. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, no one wants to hear about how you fucked all night. No.
Starting point is 00:40:48 They want to hear about how it went south. Yeah. You're right, anytime something goes badly, it is potential for comedy. Yeah. Because you bond through that shit. Yeah, I think comedians, if you do it that way, if you do it, which, you know,
Starting point is 00:41:01 which if you build material that way, you kind of live life in a weird way where like bad shit happens and you're like, this is nice. Yeah, I'm gonna do this thing. This is good I know like how are you or you just think how do I turn this into a bit? How do I set it up? Yeah, we're like getting punched in the face. I was like, I can't wait to get this videotape There you go Yeah, like I like a Tim Dillon will have a Airbnb fiasco and he has like he got like a year of material out of that Yeah, you know, so we have a gift of we can horrible shit happens. Your mom dies. You're like, alright, I can talk about this
Starting point is 00:41:30 Yeah, I find that like when I when a something happens to me I don't know if you guys find this the hardest part about the bit is like what's my angle in and then I could have the And I can hash out the whole big exactly. I feel the same way check the anger sometimes. Yeah. Yeah One of the first bits in the new special it's like me missing a connect flight I'm gonna drop the whole thing. Exactly. I feel the same way. You have to check the anger sometimes. Yeah, yeah. One of the first bits in the new special, it's like me missing a Connect flight, I missed a gig. It was literally the day my last special came out. I was in such a bad fucking mood.
Starting point is 00:41:53 I was losing it at the gate. I felt the camera phone going up. I'm like, fuck, I'm about to go viral. Yeah. On my special. On the day a special's coming out. Which is great. Well, I had to check myself.
Starting point is 00:42:04 All right, settle. I had a few drinks in the next flight and I was like, this is kind of funny. I'm taking me three flights to get to a gig I don't get to performing. Yeah, yeah. And I started like, right, I was like, this might be a bit, and then I did it there and it started working.
Starting point is 00:42:17 I'm like, all right, you're on the right track. Just kidding. There you go. Little dumb stuff going wrong in your life. It's, I have in my new in my new the new hour I'm doing I have this story about one time I went on a date with this girl and we got back to her place and Her roommates cat had passed away and she wanted me to like to remove the dead cat for her. Oh my god Yeah, and it's a nice day, and it's a true story
Starting point is 00:42:39 It's like the it's like hits the hardest in my whole act It's a true story But it happened like four years ago, and I just didn't know the angle into it. So I didn't know how to get into it. And one day it just came to me like out of like some other material, I'm like, oh, I can take it from there to here. And then it was just like a five minute bit.
Starting point is 00:42:54 That's the best. Yeah, that's the best. When you're doing that, what do you do? Do you stash it away in like a word doc or something? Or like, do you keep an inventory or something? I just have the stories. I find like, since I started a podcast, just talking it out, like you bring something up and I'll just be like, oh, I have that story.
Starting point is 00:43:09 And then sometimes you hear a clip or, and people will tell you like, oh, you got to do this on stage. So you'll really start like a friend. Yeah. Yeah. They'll be like, you got to do this. But once somebody says you got to do this, I panic. You panic.
Starting point is 00:43:19 Yeah. The pressure's on. Yeah. Like DeVito has that great joke where he's like my mom's yeah Ex-mafia wife she's dating a blind black guy and she we live with our grandma Who's a hairstylist and I've never felt more pressure to write a joke Yeah, and then he got a joke out of the trying to write a joke. Yeah. Yeah, that's a I always think about that joke, too But I like I was saying it's just finding the entryway in it cuz like I'm like on its own This story is a funny story.
Starting point is 00:43:45 But how can I convey how I felt at the time? It's funny. And then one day it just came to me, I'm like, the angle I used to get into it, I'm like, women, it's funny to see what women consider masculine now. Like now, I'm like, I think you ladies just label stuff masculine because y'all don't wanna do it,
Starting point is 00:44:02 so you want us to do it. And then you just make us do dumb shit that nobody should. And then I go into the cat story, and everyone's like, yes, that is a perfect example of the premise you just said. And isn't it funny, that sounds so natural,
Starting point is 00:44:12 but you had to come up with it. No, it took me four years. Yeah, exactly. Four years for that one line that gave me this five minute chug story. That would show you some time. Exactly. Some of my best shit took four years.
Starting point is 00:44:21 I remember there was a story about Lenor Cohn and Bob Dylan having dinner, drinks, whatever, and they're talking about like, Leonard Cohen's like, oh, I love this song you wrote. It's one of my favorite songs you ever wrote. And he goes, I wrote it in like 15 minutes. And he's like, oh, geez. And he goes, I love that song, Hallelujah. And Leonard Cohen goes, took me five years.
Starting point is 00:44:38 Yeah, look at that. You know, it's like sometimes shit takes a while. I know. And as comics, we're hard on ourselves. I'll go up at the cellar and I'll watch the comics the comics before I'm like that's killer. That's better than anything I have that's great. And I think they all just came up with it. It probably took him years Yeah, you know you watch the good conversation. They make it look easy Yeah, the sellers are the weird thing cuz I've been at the seller now for like five years
Starting point is 00:45:00 and I remember like being like the new guy at the seller where you just think you're like the shit cuz you're just like Doing your first hot 15 and just murdering. Yeah, and then once you transition into like a guy who's been there for a certain time Then the new guy's yes, and they're murdering and then you're like, oh, but you're doing your hot 15 All right, you got to do this like 15 times you have to like turn it over and continue to do it So it kind of but I like I like that thing of like You kind of gotta you gotta do it though. That's why it's like the major leagues You got exactly you got these the new guys coming in with their heat
Starting point is 00:45:31 So you gotta bring the heat you got to stay on your toe You got to work on new but also match their kill It's it's a whole dynamic there a lot of people like baseball in a lot of ways Yeah, yeah, like Seinfeld's got the great analogy about like this then you know know The the line above nine and you sub in like oh this one's not pulling its weight anymore Yeah, right, right. That's it feels so much like baseball, right? It is and I think that you know you a lot of people like oh they don't like Doing their new stuff at the cellar like, you know, they feel the pressure and I feel like I don't know a better room to do The new one of like sold out sold out hot crowd. They're listening and they don't know a better room to do the new stuff. Good point. Sold out. Sold out, hot crowd, they're listening.
Starting point is 00:46:06 And they don't know you a lot of the time. Right. Like, just crushing for your crowd is one thing, but like, I wanna make sure this works universally. Oh yeah. Yeah. Well I think a lot of comics, you know, they, like when they consider working out new,
Starting point is 00:46:20 they don't have a bit, they'll just have an idea. So they'll like go on stage and just say the idea, a thousand times, eventually they'll find it. But I'm more, I like to have it written, like I like to have a bit, they'll just have an idea. So they'll go on stage and just say the idea, a thousand times eventually they'll find it. But I'm more, I like to have it written, I like to have a bit. Yes. It might not work, but this is a bit. It's set, I have the thing, I could get out of it.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Yeah. Some people are just like, hmm. I don't have the balls to do that. I don't have the balls. Like this guy came out, he paid money, he's on the date, and I'm like, anything here? And Frank, man. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:44 And Chase. I see it, I'm like, man,? And Frank, man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And Tasty. I see it, I'm like, man, that's courage. That's crazy. I know, well, Mike Birbiglia said a thing, and now when I write, I think about it and it fucked me up. He goes, when you're writing, think where would I laugh? Right. Because when you're writing, you're like,
Starting point is 00:46:57 oh, this is funny, this is good, this will work, I'll try it up there. And then you're like, where would I actually laugh? And then it makes you go nowhere. Nowhere. This sucks, you know, but I assume, oh, I'm a funny guy, I would I actually laugh? And then it makes you go nowhere. Nowhere. This sucks, you know? But I assume, oh, I'm a funny guy, I'm a comedian, I'll make it work, but.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Right, but that's how all your shit should be. Like, if you were a screenplay, you're like, I wanna make something that I would wanna see. Yes, yes. Make it for you, and then hope, if it's that personal, I think it will be hopefully universal if you keep owning it. Yeah, Jim Jeffery said that.
Starting point is 00:47:22 He was like, they're like, how do you come up with materials? Like, I just write shit I'd wanna hear. Yeah. I was like, oh, wow, that Jeffery said that he was like they're like well How do you come up with materials like I just write shit? I'd want to hear yeah I was like oh, that's interesting. Yeah, like what there's a slippery slope cuz some people just want to hear themselves That's true. That's true. Like no funniness. Just yeah pontificate about what's right and wrong about the world a point Well, I look you got to be good Yeah, yeah, you can't just be like self-indulgent It's it's got to be like for I guess maybe like a combination
Starting point is 00:47:48 But it's like what I would want to see is in like if it weren't about me and so you know what I mean like Not for me, but for me if I was an audience member Yeah, yeah you you get indulgent and it's like yeah, we've all seen those comics and you're like Wait, where do you think? This is crazy. It's crazy. Yeah, I mean this an inherent self-indulgence to this art form Yes that you need right? Yeah, you need to think that you not getting an erection is funny And right not something that no one gives a fuck about you need to think that but there's a thing of like but I want To make it palatable. I don't want to just say it like, there's a lot of comics you see who, you know,
Starting point is 00:48:26 they just, they have no problem just telling you about their day. I know. And they think everything's an achievement. They're like, so I'm bi. That's not even a comment. You're like, bi. That's not even, that's like, scraped. Yeah, that's nothing now.
Starting point is 00:48:39 By the way, you think you're like, so I get to fuck everybody? Yeah. Like the fact that your mom died and you didn't make that your whole career is commendable I've never done a bit about I've ever well some people I feel like I'm funny right there We said yeah, maybe the witch doctor, but some people's grandma died. They're like alright. This is my end And I'm like why is this your end you should be mourning your grandma. They're workshopping stuff They're like the casket They got a long day on Facebook. They just want the likes. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:49:06 so you trading your grandma's death for the likes. You're a sick fuck. I remember at the funeral when this is when I was like, I got to pull out my notepad at the funeral. One of my family members went up to make a speech and just went on like an anti-vax rant of like, do I know what, like he knew no one should get the vaccine. And this is like a perfect example. The boosters would kill me. He was like, he's no one should get the vaccine and this is like a perfect example. The boosters would kill me, let's be honest. He was like, he's never gonna get it and this is why. How dare you use a fucking funeral for a platform?
Starting point is 00:49:34 I know, and everyone was just looking at themselves like. Well, you had Terrence Howard at your funeral, what do you expect? Come on. I love what Rich Voss said, I think it was at Patrice's funeral after his speech. He goes, I'll be selling CDs in the corner here. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:50 That happened before, I saw Big Jay did a speech at Dave, my manager who passed Dave Kimmel. I saw that, he crushed. He murdered. Murdered. Really? Murdered. Like I have not seen. Even harder than Dave was murdered. Yeah He actually got killed was one of the most tragic thing that was one of the most tragic thing
Starting point is 00:50:11 It was one of the saddest funerals. He was like 42 43 He was like no there was nothing that could make you feel like this is part of life You know, my mom passed from cancer her 60s is a part of where you can be like This is a transition of life right you get older get older, you get sick, you pass away. Dave's funeral was- 60s is so young though. It is, but Dave's funeral was not like that, right? It was like, this is a tragic thing that happened.
Starting point is 00:50:33 And it was just a sad, sad funeral and Big Jay went up and just murdered, like start to finish. Like we were like clean, we were like, you gotta send a set to Fallon. Like this is the cleanest, like just hilarious, 20 minutes of just murdering, like we left the funeral like feeling like good.
Starting point is 00:50:52 No mention. I did crowd work at that one. I was like. Big J, no mention of Asian pussy? No Asian puss. Wow, good for you, J. DeRosa crushed that one too. Really?
Starting point is 00:51:03 Yeah, it was great. Well, the hard thing is, like you think DeRosa's annoying with shots in regular life, try going to a funeral with. DeRosa crush that one too. Really? Yeah, he was great. Well, the hard thing is, you think DeRosa's annoying with shots in regular life. Try going to a funeral with Joe DeRosa. He's trying to get around him, he's like, shot! You're like, all right, fuck him. Guess tomorrow's washed. I couldn't love DeRosa.
Starting point is 00:51:19 I know we sit on cop, but it's a real thing. It's like a real thing that we do here. You gotta use it. Yeah, you gotta cope. I mean, and then it's just so cool we have such funny friends who can just go up and riff and kill we know some of the funniest people on the planet yeah that's that's pretty wild like cuz you know that just go being funny at a funeral that's like no he didn't put out a notepad exactly I'm just going do you want that at your funeral just no I'm

Yeah Michael Jackson just straight ripped all these moves. Yeah. Can I show it to you?

It another fucking wreck by the way we know Lou Gehrig book it's fucking incredible oh yeah hold uh fuck look up the most popular it's fucking great is he's not the racist that's Ty Cobb yeah Ty Cobb was racist he's the ice ice bucket challenge. Yeah, ALS. Yeah, ALS. That's what I meant.
Starting point is 01:01:47 So funny, this guy fucking died at 36, and everyone's like, I'll pour some cold water. That's your quality. I did it, I did it. You would've done the challenge. Is it luckiest man? Yeah, it's great, I love it. Luckiest?
Starting point is 01:01:58 I consider him the luckiest man in the world today. Yeah, it's brutal, man. But he was, I mean, he was a fucking crusher. He crushed the ball and he, I mean, three of his siblings died. He was the only one that survived. You just had a kid back then, you were like, we'll see. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:16 Crazy, but yeah, I love it. It's excellent. And it's like, those old Yankees books are fucking awesome. I just love those old baseball books. Oh yeah. Something like 170 RBIs when you're hitting after Babe Ruth. Yeah. Really? So that's when Babe Ruth cleared the bases 60 times
Starting point is 01:02:31 by hitting home runs, still came through with 170 rebbe's. Oh, Babe Ruth is a fucking party animal too. The babe stories are so funny. He was just always getting loaded. Yeah, just drunk. And he was funny and he was an everyman and he would fuck up, but everyone loved him even more. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:43 And he, I mean that's what they would do. They would just go out. It was like an immigrants game back then, like really an immigrants game. So they were like, oh this is for like, you know. This is like, you look down on it. But it became so popular because it was a blue collar sport. And Babe Ruth, like they'd go get fucked up
Starting point is 01:03:00 after every game. And try to just chase women. Yeah, he ate like three steaks a day, a gallon of whiskey, cigars, and pussy. And back then, there was no such thing as condoms or anything. So every girl is just raw. And I don't think they were pulling out, probably.
Starting point is 01:03:16 Probably not. It'd be rude. Yeah, it'd be disrespectful condom. So it makes you think, what are we doing now? No. We need to be. Well, back then, yeah, you got an abortion. It was less diseases, you think like, what are we doing now? No. We need to be. Well, back then, yeah, you got an abortion. It was less diseases, you think?
Starting point is 01:03:29 I think there was less diseases, and I think there was no internet. So you could just be like, hey, whore, get away from me. I don't know, dude. Babe Ruth died at like 50. It was the greatest death. But he lived fast. He lived hard.
Starting point is 01:03:39 Well, dude, he also had like mistresses. It was this whole thing, like, I want to have a perfect year I want to like not get injured. Maybe I'll drink a little less. Oh, hopefully my wife doesn't catch my mistresses this year That was like his scouting report Fucking amazing. Yeah, it was a better time. Every time he has stories like that like you hear like Chamberlain like oh, yeah You're like where this doesn't even sound like realistic like I know no blue true. No nothing No, but you know what a hundred points in the game didn't sound realistic back then either Chamberlain was fucking never use that type of guy Yeah, you know the problem is it doesn't sound fun. You're fucking that many. No it doesn't sound fun
Starting point is 01:04:15 Like a certain point you come and now you're just hanging out with strangers every yes. Yes. Yeah It's like yeah, Williams with the seven thousand books. It's too much. It's too much. You can't keep that up. Yeah Yeah, but he was like it wasn't like fairy tales. No, no Astrophysicist you think we'd bump into a woman who fucked Will Chamberlain by now Like I'm sure I've met a woman at a grocery store who fucked Will Chamberlain Just numbers wise statistically. It's not gonna come up. Hey, can you pass the milk by the way? If I had that story I'd be like, can I get the bread, by the way?
Starting point is 01:04:46 I fucking will tear it apart. Yeah. Yeah, that's a big one. Oh, I'm sure he was huge. What was your peeve, Mark? Oh, sorry. I got two. How about the first one's annoying and weird.
Starting point is 01:04:59 You're not gonna agree with it. I don't like when the waitress or a waiter comes up and we got a bunch of stuff going on, I'm eating, and she comes up and she wants to give you a plate but she has to hand it to you. Just put it on the table, right there. I can't do the handing off, just put it on the table. Right, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:18 All right, I knew everybody would hate that one.

Starting point is 01:27:40 the point where I want all of my friends to be married. I don't want them to be single because I'm single and my single friends still expect me to be their wingman. As you get older, becoming a wingman is harder because your lies get bigger. When you're young, you just lie like, you know, yeah, like he's a good cook. When you're older, you gotta be like, yeah, he's a good father. So that's basically the angle now and then I want to tell a story about Like times where I've seen what like when you you ever seen a wingman like half to wingman, but he get into a fight With the girl he's supposed to like
Starting point is 01:28:17 Take like a wingman versus a cock blocker like when they get into it like in a thing Right. I have a story where that happened, where they almost ended up fighting. Where like a boy of mine was supposed to like be a wingman. And they almost got into like a fist fight with like the girl. And I'm like, this is so the opposite, but I just don't know the angle to get it.
Starting point is 01:28:37 Yeah, you have to pause and be like, all right, he's not a good father. Or something like that, yeah. Maybe there's something too, he's such a bad wingman that you look great. Like he's fighting with this girl, and she's like fuck this guy. I'll talk to you. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, well, maybe that's good Yeah, he's so like violent. Yeah. Yeah, like I would never hit a woman. She's like I'll take you I had a friend. I had a friend's dad who passed away who was like that growing up I remember we were in a bar and he like to get the bars we were underage he was like the fun dad oh yeah
Starting point is 01:29:06 shocker he's not with us anymore but he was he was hilarious he was like he would get us drunk we went to a bar once and he just walks up to this like hot we were kids were probably like 20 walked up to this hot fucking woman in the bar and he goes lady what I would give to fuck you up the ass Jesus Christ what is he doing? and we were like what the hell and I'm like miss I'm so sorry and he goes, lady what I would give to fuck you up the ass. Jesus Christ, what is he doing? And we were like what the hell? And I'm like, man, I'm so sorry. And she goes, well finally, a gentleman. I was like, I guess we're using that word loosely now.
Starting point is 01:29:33 But I ended up getting blown by her. Really? Yeah, we were talking and he's like, give me a thumbs up. I'm like, he knew what he was doing. Yeah, well I think that's the bit. Something like that, like the shitty wingman. Yeah, cause I get I think that's the bit Like that like the bet the shitty wingman yeah Cuz I cuz I had a similar story where the guy
Starting point is 01:29:49 Where like a friend of mine was like like he was something like he said something along the lines like I'd love to like have Unprotected sex with you like I wouldn't use a condom with like first line And she was like what the fuck and wow and then you're just sitting there like I'd use a condom with you like what the fuck? And then you're just sitting there like, I'd use a condom with you. I'd. That's funny. There we go.
Starting point is 01:30:06 That's what I had. Finally, a gentleman. And I take you to dinner first, oh my god, who is this guy? Yeah, all right, that's not bad. We got something. I got nothing, dude. There's so many bad people,
Starting point is 01:30:16 like when I was on Tinder and all that, there's so many bad, like shitty, boring guys, and if you were like somewhat funny or anything, you'd get laid. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So yeah, you just, you got something there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so yeah, just you got something there just the He's so bad. You're good. Yeah, you know what I found I remember you told me this like a while ago when I was like still open if you you said that like I think you
Starting point is 01:30:35 Said you had a conversation with burr that he was like he told you something along the lines like when you go to stories Like the people kind of just fuck with you a little more mmM Yeah, I've I've like found that like with this new hour that I'm doing I've kind of went more to like telling like I'm not gonna tell long drone our stories like a quick punchy stories but like there are a lot of stories and it just feels like the connection yes is tighter like somebody about a story really like people into you yeah they remember this story the bit I get like referenced the most is like the white the white really like yeah
Starting point is 01:31:05 Yeah That's what people fuck people like of stories In a weird way when you put yourself in the audience shoes because sometimes I'll do that like I just did the cleave I did the Cleveland funny bone and Costa was at hilarity so after I went to watch costa just to be like let me just be an audience member and see Like an hour. I love hilarity. Yeah, and the hilarity is fucking amazing great club But you you kind of you kind kinda see where you're like, oh yeah, even though you came to laugh,
Starting point is 01:31:30 like a good story that has laughs and is really interesting, that's like great. I know. It's like better, in a way. It's better, and it rings you in, you're on the edge of your seat, there's a big ending. It's like a movie. Yes.
Starting point is 01:31:41 You're like a movie that's funny and has all the things. In the moment, yeah. Yeah, it's great. People relate it to their lives. Yeah. Oh, I've had a similar thing's funny and like has all the moment. Yeah, you're related to their lives Yeah, oh, I've had a similar thing and yeah, they feel more connected right? Yeah Nah, I don't have any I got nothing good right yeah Oh my shit's either like long or just fucking it's either there or nothing I have like nothing in between we had a session the other night though. We've been in the wild
Starting point is 01:32:01 I got a lot out of that same same All right, I got one tell me if I've done this before. The pizza bit? So I was hanging out with my buddy and I was like, you wanna get dinner? And he's like, yeah, sure. And I go, you wanna get pizza? And he goes, I had pizza last night.
Starting point is 01:32:16 I'm like, yeah, but you love pizza. And he's like, I know, but I don't eat it every night. And I said, well, don't get married. Cause that's what marriage is, you know? And I'm like like when you get married You eat pizza every night, but you got to make it interesting. You're like tonight. I'll eat it from behind Maybe I'll pay a guy to eat my pizza and I'll watch Then you got a couple you got a couple
Starting point is 01:32:45 And have you done it I've tried it, but it's it's shaky yeah, and I'm like look I get it from her angle, too She's got to fuck this this thin crush. She probably wants a deep dish So I hit it. That's good. That's new that I just funny. Okay. I'll try it It felt to a to be like it felt a little too like comparison Analogy something about a delivery, but maybe when you're working a delivery boy. Oh, yeah, you know we're like watching people make pizza like network porn Then cross deep dish that's a big it's also tough cuz I'm in New York, and there's just so much great pizza I know oh, that's tell me about it. Yeah Yeah, that's true. Yeah, all right all right. I'll try it tonight. Yeah, we'll see what happens
Starting point is 01:33:23 I think I think you got something the bad wingman that bad when they're, all right, I'll try it tonight. We'll see what happens. I think you got some on the bad wingman. The bad wingman? Good, all right, I'll work on it. Is this something, I don't know if I've told, might have told you this, I don't remember, but like, I have a thing about like, as an adult, like when you're young, every drug you take, you're trying to extend the night,
Starting point is 01:33:41 and then you get older, and every drug is like, whatever will make it tomorrow. Yeah. That's good. You know you know what I mean like I don't want it to be full of my whole thing is full of drugs that don't get me till Tomorrow exactly I have like little like powders Yeah, this will knock me out and be in like I don't do anything that one like extending the night is like a sign of hope It isn't the bit. I'm just talking about it's like a sign of hope That's why like when you're an adult in like your 30s ors doing coke, I'm like, what the fuck are you doing? Yeah. You know, I don't need more ideas
Starting point is 01:34:08 I'm not gonna follow through on. Right. Yeah, coke versus melatonin is very real. Yeah. Or coke versus Ambien. This is how little I party at this point. I mean, I drink, but this is how little I party. There's a line I did in a bit,
Starting point is 01:34:20 I still drink, but now it's like a scotch during a Hitler doc. I'm not going out, you know? But like, you know, I'll take melatonin. I'll be like don't take that shit. I'll give you bad dreams Like that's how little I fucking party. That's look I stopped taking it because of the nightmares. That's why exactly Nightmares. Yeah, not just vivid dreams like scary dream. Yeah. Yeah Yeah, huh, it can be weird like I knew I was a dreaming but it was weird. It's weird especially if you're sleeping next to somebody. Yeah. It's weird. I didn't know. I started doing the edibles. Really?
Starting point is 01:34:52 Yeah. Whoa. But there's something to that I think of like spending the night and like it needs more but there's something about like young people you like you make I think the other thing is like, one of the reasons I don't do coke is like, I don't wanna be more aware of my decisions. Like young people, it's like 2 a.m. you're doing blow and shit. 4 a.m. it's like, I don't wanna hide an awareness
Starting point is 01:35:16 for whatever bad shit I'm about to do. Sure. You know? Yeah, yeah. I don't know, I'll play with that. Adderall. Adderall, that's true. Adderall's adult cocaine. Yeah, cuz you do it during the day There's some I'll play with it. Yeah
