01:31:38 Share

Hey, folks, here we are. We might be drunk. Uh-oh, we're white powering out of the gate here. Good to see you. My brain is mush. Sam's hungover and Rosebud's sober. Yeah. We're still drinking. The worst of all three. It is. I don't know. Look at us. No, we're not doing well.

This is rough. Yeah, I went hard last night. It was one of those, like, and I also have construction in my building, so it was like I went hard, and I just knew this morning would suck. Yeah. And it did. But what are you going to do? That's brutal. Yeah. You're hungover. You're off a bender. My parents are in town, and I was on the Fully Loaded tour all weekend. My brain is mush. Yeah. How long are they here?

Till Thursday. Okay. That's not so bad. Not so bad. Our parents randomly had dinner together last night. Yes! I forgot. What do you mean randomly? Mark's dad and my dad have a mutual friend, and they all just had dinner. So my mom said, we're having dinner with the Normans tonight. I was like, what? I know. I know.

I couldn't wrap my head around it. The world's colliding. It was too much. I was at the cellar late last night, and Mark just sends me a picture of our families together. Can I post that on here? Is that weird? Let me send it to Matt. You can throw it up on the pod. That's cute. So they're meeting both your spouses. I do feel like we just got serious.

Yeah. Yeah. Like we were friends for years. We just took it up a level. That's a good point. It's huge. I don't feel comfortable. I just preferred fucking. Yeah. So my parents are in town meeting my fiance's parents for the first time and I can't relax. I'm freaking out. I'm nervous. That's a terrifying thing to have happen. Yeah. I mean, I got married during COVID, so I got to avoid all of it. Yeah. Like none of my family. They haven't met Andy's parents? Well, they met.

Andy's dad and stepmom, but they haven't met his mom, Anita. And that's the, she's the, you know, the matriarch. Really? And the patriarch. Wow. Are you in good with her? Yeah. That's good. We're a lot alike. He married his mom. Yes. Look at that. There's my sleepy dad. Yeah. Norman's parents in the middle, mine on, you know,

That's cute. Yeah, it's pretty funny. I knew your mom, Sam, because of COVID, you would run jokes by her. Yeah. Dark times. And my mom doesn't know I do stand-up. Oh, that's good. She's got a nice Farrah Fawcett thing cooking. Yeah, she's got good bangs. It's like a Three's Company haircut.

Good for her. This is like the new Grace and Frankie here. Yeah. Oh, yeah. This is funny. You definitely look like both your parents. Well, that's not my biological dad. No, I'm saying that Mark does. Uh-huh. Yeah, you look like your mom. Yeah, that's my mom. I can see it.

- Cute, cute family. - Very cute. - Adorable. - The foursome though is when they went too far. - I thought it was pretty weird they all fucked. - Yeah. - Whatever. - Well how are you gonna get to know each other? - Exactly. - My mom's gonna listen to this and she's gonna be like, "Why did you make that joke?" - Blame it on me. I'm a bad influence. - I feel like I get that a lot from my parents. - Really? - Like whenever they hear a joke, they go like, "Why did you, why that?" - That's why. - Yeah. - Because of that. - Right. - Yes.

The line, most comedians' line of how far they go is their parents. Right. You know? Sexually and comedy-wise. You know what I mean? Absolutely sexually. Sexually, for sure. How did you guys do it? I mean, but no, but don't you realize that with comedy where you're like, my...

The joke I go with my mom would go, Sam! I'm like, that's... Okay, that's where I'll go. Right. You know, where she'd get mad. Yeah. And I think we don't feel that much. So, like, you got to say something crazy. I was on this tour bus saying horrible shit, and then I got out in front of, like, the Grips and the other people, and I said a Uvalde joke, and they were all like...

Right. What the fuck was that? I was like, oh, I was joking. They're like, that's a joke? I'm like, to me. I'm just saying the worst thing I can to get a reaction. Yeah. I like that you said that, that we don't feel that much. That made me feel better. All right. Yeah. Well, it's not that we're sociopaths. We just, the words are numb, you know? Right. And when you start at open mics, you're just around people saying the most horrible shit ever. And then you're like, oh, okay. You're numb. We're desensitized. I mean, you know, that's...

It's not, you know, we're not bad people. I don't think. I don't know. No, no, of course not. It's debatable. It's debatable. But I do think that like when like COVID hit and shit and I would be reading the news and all of a sudden like it started to like affect me. I was like, oh, no.

this is bad. Yeah. Because it was like the scabs of years of talking to other comics were just sort of like wearing down and I was like, oh, I'm not as funny anymore. Like I'm, I can tell because I'm reading the news and nothing's coming to mind except this is tragic. You know, like, and that was like a bad sign. Yeah. When you have empathy. Right. I felt it coming back.

I was like, oh no, this is gonna be so bad for me. You have to distance yourself, right? That's like the comedic trait where you're like, it doesn't mean that we don't feel, but it means like we have to kind of immediately distance ourself or else there's no joke. Yeah, you're dissociated a little bit. And it sucks that we, can't we grieve our way? You know, you go to a funeral, people are crying and they're hugging the casket going, no. And I'm going, hey, you know, he's got a boner in there. And they're like, what's wrong with you? I'm like, this is how I grieve.

You know? Right. I grieve the way I grieve. Comics funerals are the best. Oh, the best. Those are fucking great. You trash a dead person. Yeah. It's fun. It's love. That's better. That's literally the Jewish faith. We dump the rocks on the, you know. Really? On the casket. Yeah, you just start throwing the rocks on the casket. It's weird, yeah. Wait, what? Yeah, you don't see that ever? I didn't know about the rocks. Yeah, you push the rocks on, yeah. I thought that was a Muslim thing. All right. No, that's when women try to vote. All right.

Or drive. Yes. How do you like writing for SNL right now? Well, I'm not right now. Thank you so much. Thank you. Look at that. It just went on break. About to relapse. Yeah. You sure that's the right one? Possibly. Okay. I do like it. Oh, my God. That's so good. Mocktail for Rosebud. We're going, whoa, what? Is that a rose? Yeah. Are you trying to fuck us? It tastes like my mom's soap. Ha ha.

I feel like it's been great. It was kind of like it felt like going to, like getting paid to go to Harvard or something for a little while. Oh, yeah. Comedy school. Not my favorite. It's not my type of, it's well-made. It's just not my type of cocktail. I like it. It's a little too like potpourri for you, I feel like.

It's a little too potpourri. I love a rose flavor at anything. Yeah. No, it's interesting. I feel like I'm the girl in American Beauty right now. You know? Your tits are bigger.

That was fun. Never mind. Well, that's one of those movies where you're like, I was like, this is amazing. And then five years later, I was like, this movie kind of sucks. Yeah. Absolutely sucks. It's pretentious as hell. Yeah. Very precious. The bag floating. Get out of here. Yeah. The monologue at the end. Yeah. Spacey is great and Annette Bening's hot and great. Yeah. She gets plowed by Peter Gallagher.

You can tell how much older I'm getting, but every time I watch that movie, I relate more and more to her being like, don't get anything on the couch. More and more on her side. Yeah. As I get older, I'm like, no, I completely get it. Oh, yeah. I saw Peter Gallagher in a bodega once when I was like, we were like, must have been like eighth or ninth grade and we're all like hammered. Did you guys have an eyebrow off? I don't know who to want. That's a tough one. That's a tough one. Me and my friends were shit-faced holding like 40s. We're holding like 08s.

And I was like, you're fucking Peter Gallagher. And he was just like, ugh. And his wife goes, no, that's nice. He was so annoyed by us. Oh, really? But I was like a drunk film nerd. Yeah. That's a big deal. You knew who that was as a kid. Yeah. That's pretty good. I'd seen While You Were Sleeping. I'd seen a bunch of his shit. Oh, yeah. Guys and Dolls.

Whoa. What happened to his eyebrows? He shaved them. He lost a bit. Oh, wow. He is a completely different man without those things. Yeah, he looks like Thomas Hayden Church without those. He's so hot. Is he a hot guy? He is a hot guy, yeah. He's a good looking dude. I can't tell. He's definitely a good looking dude. He's like a romantic lead. Oh, yeah, that's true.

Yeah. Okay. But so is Seth Rogen. You know what? He's like a hotter, what's his name? Saturday Night Fever. Why am I blanking? Yeah, he's a hotter Travolta. He's hotter than Travolta? Yeah, Travolta, because Travolta- Gay. Ended up, yeah, first of all, gay. Second, has that Scientology smile. Yes, yes. You know? He's got a glow of like, I've been transformed.

Yeah, like there's just like nothing behind his fucking eyes. Right, I'm in a cult. I'm kind of turned on by that though. Yeah. Of course. We were talking about SNL. Sorry, I cut you off with American Beauty. Yeah, it's been cool. It's been like...

I mean, physically, it's just fucking so hard on you. Yeah. And you're doing the road. Yeah. And I'm doing the road. And like, I, but it, it's a cool thing to be this like far into comedy and go, oh, here's something that I never really learned how to do. And like, to try to teach yourself that from zero. Yes. Because writing live sketch versus writing sketch for TV is just such a completely different animal. Right. And,

nothing can be subtle. Like subtlety never plays. It has to be like really fucking obvious or else the audience in the room doesn't get it. Wow. Not to mention you are doing these for like tourists. Yes. Right. And young people. And young people. Yeah. And I've seen your act a bunch. You're pretty dry. Yeah. You know, we're both pretty dry. Yeah. So like I wonder how that is to write big, broad kind of sketches when you're –

- Well, it's good 'cause I'm like, I never really, I'm not that silly. - Yes, exactly. - And so to be in that environment and to kind of like learn how to be funny in that way, that's been really cool for me. - Are you silly with Andy? - Yes. - Yeah, so it's like you have that, but then you have to make it broad, right? - Yes, yeah. So it's a different, it's just a different skillset. And I remember going in and watching like the first table read and hearing one of my sketches and going, oh, that was real bad.

And the scariest part of that was I have no idea why. Oh, that is tough. It's one thing to bomb and know exactly what happened. It's another thing to bomb and be like,

I don't know how I'm going to avoid that. Yeah. You know, you're the newer person. Yes. What do people say when, when it bombs like that? Does, do they say anything? They don't say anything. It's like you, I wish you could just be like, skip it. You know, like I wish you could be up in the bleachers. Just like, just skip it. It's fine. There's fucking seven more pages. Just get, just move on, you know, but they have to read the whole thing. So, and sometimes you'll see Lauren like looking how many pages are left. Oh,

Wow. How much longer? And you're like, oh no. That's the YouTube, you press the button. Yeah, yeah. Thank God, 20 seconds. Yeah, you're like, oh fuck. Yeah. But it's, but like finally by the end of the season, I would be writing stuff and I would know exactly what wasn't going to play and why it wasn't going to play. And then to see it

like play out exactly how I thought it would I'd be like oh okay I finally know what I'm doing wrong I can't say I've gotten great at it like I still feel like I have no business being there but I I'm

I'm like, I'm learning it. Yeah. You know? And they let you learn. They don't go, ah, you tried and failed. Well, we'll see. I mean, I still haven't. I'm going to find out. Because we know a couple people who got in and out pretty quick. Yeah. I mean, it's a high pressure job. Sure. I saw Bill Hader in an interview just be like, yeah, I was miserable. Really? Yeah. Yeah. I mean, there's like, I think there's times when you're miserable, but it's like,

This is just from what I've observed. It's still there's something so kind of like addicting about it. Yeah. I mean, it's the same as stand up. You know, it's so intense. You're like putting everything into it. You let your personal life fall to pieces and you just fucking throw your whole self into it.

So it's, yeah, it's misery, but comedy is misery. Oh, literally the last two nights I had no set. I think I had two last night and then Sunday I had none. I just text Liz the seller. I'm like, if anyone cancels, she's like, Chris Redd's stuck in Canada. You want to do four? I'm like, yep.

Then he's still stuck in Canada Monday. She's like, you want to do another three? So I'm just like, yep. I'm just at the cellar. I'm like, yeah, let's just neglect my entire life. Downing fucking booze at the Fat Black Bar. Greg Stone started a show called Night Cream where he just sings auto-tuned. It's incredible. He's murdering. It's so funny.

Wait, there's an audience? There's an audience. Dude, he started that during the pandemic. It's incredible. Yeah. Dude, he can kind of sing. What? It's weird. So it's stand up. And then at the end of the show, Greg just starts doing auto tune and being fucking crazy. And he's doing bits kind of through it. It's murdering. Yeah. Come on.

It's so funny. And then everyone's just hanging out, having fun. I'm like, it's like a party. Hopefully they do it every Monday at the Fat Black Lounge at the Cellar. It's worth going to. It's crazy. Yeah, it's really funny. I'd love to see it. Didn't he do a music video as Night Cream? See, you can pull that up as Night Cream. His band is like, it's called Night Cream and it's him and another comic and they basically like

wrote an album in one day during the pandemic and it's all improvised and it's hilarious i mean i'm just like it's the craziest thing like stone night cream maybe i don't know is it is it jokes i don't get where the laughs come in it's weird it's i don't know how it's all it's improvised it's so silly he takes something someone says and turns into a song but it's fucking weird and silly it's like singing crowd work almost yeah almost yeah yeah pretty much

I don't know if this is going to be a good clip or not because I haven't seen this. This looks like Soul Jewels. Yeah, I don't think this is the music video. Oh, okay. Oh, there's a music video? Yeah. We don't want to play a stand-up. This is a comedy show. Just joking, Greg. This is a music video? I don't... Night Cream. That's a great name. By the way, this drink gets better every sip. Yeah, actually, it's growing on me. Yeah? I was going to have an alternative for you, but if you need another one...

No, the raspberry needed a second. We gotta get Greg on here. Yeah, Greg's gotta come on. He's so funny. Maybe you could do this on the pod. Yes. Yeah, chopping wood is what he calls sex. So the song is chopping wood. Chopping wood.

All right, it's funny. It's pretty funny. I didn't mean to just play a whole thing here, but I thought it was fun. Check it out. He's doing it at the Comedy Cellar, hopefully every Monday. It's like a whole show.

- Davido went on, Simeon Goodson, who's hilarious also went on. - He's funny, yeah. - It was a good show. - All right, wow, how did they pitch that one? - Liz somehow saw it. I don't know if she saw it at another club and she was like, you gotta do this. - I bet you he showed her the music video. I bet that's what it was. - But she was pumped for it. - Yeah, it's very funny. - This bitch might be crazy, child! - So yeah, what were like highlights? Were there any guests you were like, or hosts this season where you were like, oh, this is pretty awesome? - It's so like,

It's such a lame answer, but I can barely remember the hosts because you're so sleep deprived and shit. But I got to say, Lizzo was fucking great. She hosted and she was a musical guest and she did update during the dress rehearsal. So I've never seen anybody do that much work. She...

when I went into her dressing room to give her notes, she was, every time I saw her offstage, she was lying down. She was just like, literally preserving all her energy. Yes. And then I saw her performing. I was literally like, this bitch, I get it. Like for her

lie down the whole time. I was like, that's perfect. Good for her. That's what we should be doing. Yes, exactly. Because you lose so much energy talking to the manager of the club, the waiter, the fans, the photos after. You just burnt out. Yeah. And I don't know anybody who's been a host and a musical guest that's also wanted to do Update. That's like your time off.

True, true. You know? I heard about this, I think I've told this before, but there was a rock star, I'm not going to say his name, but he puts his hood up and that means don't talk to me and then he'll take the hood down and anybody can say hello, how are you, take a photo. So that's like his way of nicely saying leave me the fuck alone. Does he know about air pods? Yeah, don't bother me. Sorry, I stepped on that. That was funny. Well, air pods, I think somebody can still go...

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you got to do this shit, you know? Right. But with the hood up, everybody just knew. That was his rule. Oh, that's a fucking peeve. The AirPods in. It is a peeve of mine. Yeah. I get why people do it, but it bugs me a little bit. When they don't take them out? Yeah, when they're just talking to you with the AirPods in. Yeah, that is weird. Because you get a lot of, what? Yes. Right. I saw a guy in front of me at the bank doing that. I'm like, just take them out for the conversation. Right. Right. Exactly. Yeah.

But how many people are you approaching with AirPods in? I'm not doing it. I mean, sometimes I have men, you see someone on the street, you take them out for the conversation. Right, yeah. But then maybe it's a conversation you want to have a really long one, so you take one out. Take one. Right. Exactly. That's what I do. Huh? Huh? Yeah. But talking about SNL, I read the Bernie Brillstein book, and John Belushi said he did four years, and he said it's like high school. Yeah. You do four years, and you graduate. Yeah.

Yeah. Well, Keenan's been there for like 20 years, right? Yeah. Well, a lot of the cast has been there for now for a long time. He's Van Wilder. Yeah. I think that there's like, I think before 80 and Kyle and Kate and fucking 80 Kyle, Kate. Is Kate still there? Kate McKinnon? No, she left. No, she just left. Oh, she left. Okay. But like,

I think the cast had been there the longest of any cast. Oh, wow. Damn. That they were just like sticking around for a while. I wonder if it's just terrifying because you have... It's not like the old days where you just were guaranteed... They don't make comedy movies anymore, really. Right. Like back in the day...

You were just in a movie. Yeah. You graduated to movies. But you look at a lot of those SNL guys from back, you know, like what, 12 years ago or so, and they all have their own shows. Like you look at like, you know, Jason Sudeikis and Bill Hader. Yeah. I mean, a lot of them just have their own thing. But it did take long. Like the way that the entertainment industry has changed, I'm like, it takes so much longer to build sort of longevity, you know, because you have,

You can have your own show, but that doesn't mean everybody's going to watch it. It's like there's so many platforms and there's so many different ways to watch things that you could have a massively successful show on one platform and people still don't fucking know about it. There are so many shows that we don't know about. I know. I was with a girl the other night. I put on 30 Rock and she's like, what is this? What? Oh.

I mean, she was 14. But no, no, but she was like, what is this? And I was like, are you kidding me? She goes, she was Tina Fey. And I was like, yeah, it's like one of the best shows ever. What are you talking about? Damn. And then. Did she not know who Tina Fey was? She did, but she was like, yeah, she's not funny. And I was like, are you kidding me? Are you fucking serious? Yeah.

Holy shit. Like in a hajib or whatever, a hijab. Like, where'd you find this lady? And she was like, Alec Baldwin. I was like, this is like one of the best comic actors ever. What are you talking about? He shot a lady. Did something happen? You're like, he's a little rusty. All right. That was the name of the movie. But... Yeah. Yeah, so you're...

they don't make comedy movies like they used to. No. No, they don't. They definitely... I miss the 90s in that way because like how many great... Well, we can't say they were all fucking great, you know? Yeah. It's like... We had Rodney King. Right. That was 92. Yeah.

I mean, if you look at how many of those actually did not do great in the box office. Oh, the movies. I'm talking about the ones that came out. No, no, no. No, yeah, you're right. I thought you were talking about a hit in the 90s. And I was like, yeah, that did. Definitely a hit. Got great ratings. But yeah, we had Tommy Boy, but then you had Night at the Roxbury. I thought Roxbury was kind of fun. It's got a moment. Yeah. Interesting.

It's got moments. I don't know. I mean, if you look, I don't remember a single moment from it, though. Same. But before, it was just like the natural progression was like,

You had Molly Shannon do What's-Her-Face, Catherine Gallagher. Right. And then she did Superstar. Yeah. You had the Night at the Roxbury with Will Ferrell and what's-his-face, Catan. And then it became a movie. It was just such a normal trajectory. And now that's over. Yeah. I mean, Will Ferrell kind of was the king of the 90s. Like every movie that he was involved in besides Night at the Roxbury. Yeah. I mean, it was just...

I was like re-watching Anchorman, which has kind of been ruined at this point just from the amount of like times it's been quoted to me. But... Yeah. But like...

That movie was so fucking good. Oh, amazing. It was so funny. Anchorman, The Other Guys. Have you guys seen that? Oh, yeah. That's one of his later movies. That's a great movie. Old school. That's like, actually, I'm surprised by how many people haven't seen The Other Guys. True. It's great. It's so funny. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, Step Brothers. Yeah. Step Brothers. But a lot of those were like the early aughts. I feel like the 90s was like, it was like Sandler. Talladega Nights. Yeah.

Jim Carrey, Chris Tucker, Eddie Murphy still. You know like how you talk to your dad about baseball if you have a bad relationship? Mine is all me and my dad talk about are Will Ferrell movies. Really? Yeah, that's like how we keep our relationship on safe

territory I remember my biological father his wife's like just come over there'll be a baseball game on like alright fine and then I get there there's no game on I'm like I was told there'd be a buffer this is fucking rude we saw I remember we saw the you just have to make strong eye contact all day I remember he took me to see Walk Hard he was like let's see something mindless and as mindless as it is there's still a subplot of like he's like I'm sorry I was a bad father son I'm like come on

This was supposed to be the safe bet. You guys are just watching and not blinking. Just like, ugh. Yeah. Damn. Brutal. I don't have a buffer. At least you guys have that. But do you have a good relationship with your dad? Well, it's just co-workery. It's hot out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They have a water cooler in their home. It's weird. A lot of office small talk. Right. Yeah, yeah. That's the other thing.

thing about SNL is that it's there's something you're obviously in a corporate environment even though you're making comedy sure like you're still in a corporate job so you can't this is where stand-ups have a hard time there because it's like it's not about you like it's just not about you you know production yeah it's a production you are a tiny part of a fucking gigantic thing were there any humbling moments like that we were like um I barely have the self-esteem you know what I mean to like

But walking in, seeing my first sketch...

like just completely bomb and being like oh i have no idea what to do or how to avoid this next week and i was like walking up to like brian tucker is like one of the best writers he's a great guy one of the best sketch writers i've ever seen and such a nice dude and he's been there forever he's been there for so long yeah he's been there for a while and he's like he was head writer for a while and now he's a senior writer wow um and he uh

And that was his choice. You know what I mean? He was like, I think, I'm assuming. And he, like, I walked into his office after hearing my first sketch bomb and I was like, hey, Brian, um...

I was like, so are there like any books I can read? Like I was like for real like asking for a book on how to write sketch because that's how desperate I was. I was like, I need some kind of – I'm like give me some rules, some regulations. I don't know how to do this. You know, I'm not – I didn't come up in the sketch world. I came up doing comedy. Sure. And you can learn how to write a joke. There's millions of jokes. You can – and they're –

two lines, you know what I mean? Like the best ones. And so you can go, oh, there's the premise. That's the turn. There's the punchline. Boom. Like,

I can see how that works. - Yeah, there's not a ton on sketch, you're right. You just have to watch a bunch, I guess. - You gotta like, it's like chess. I mean, you just have to fucking fail to get good at it. - But that's all, that's all anything in entertainment, right? Every part you have to kind of just learn, right? - Right, yeah. - But you're learning on the biggest platform of sketch comedy of all time. - It's terrifying, yeah.

It's scary. But I love it. I like it. I mean, SNL, it's like just there's no show like it where you have to have a new killer sketch. Like a whole episode every week. It's insane. Yeah. I mean, every other show you can take your time. I mean, also the live audience. There is something still pretty insane about it. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. It's very cool. I remember like walking through the...

showroom on Saturday and like seeing the like on-air sign and being like am I in the 50s like it's so cool to be in that environment I remember watching it on Comedy Central they would do reruns all day remember back in the day so you just get like you know G.E. Smith in the Saturday Night Live band you're like oh my god this is so yeah what was your favorite era of SNL I mean I

I'd have to say like the 90s were my favorite era, but like that original cast was just the best. Oh, yeah. You know, and I think there's something that's naturally really nostalgic when people think about their favorite time of SNL. It's always like right as they were growing up. Every time. You know? Every time. But I will say...

When Che got the gig, Michael Che first got it. I mean, he was just an open, not an open mic, but he was like a working comic, young guy, alcoholic, fun, friend of ours. And he's like, come to the show. And I was like, okay. And I remember sitting in his dressing room and we're just downing tequila. And I was like, what are we doing here? You got to go on. He's like, ah, it's fine.

And I remember walking the bowels of 30 Rock and looking at all the photos and the touch and everything. Yeah. It was amazing. It's amazing. I remember walking through that hall the first day and it hadn't really occurred to me that I had gotten the job. I knew that I had gotten the job, but I was walking through that hall where you see every cast member in the writer's floor and being like,

Well, there's every hero I ever had. Exactly. Being like, you don't deserve this. Right. You know what I mean? Yeah. I remember sneaking into Lorne's office and he's got that window that overlooks the whole stage and the audience. Yeah. And that was pretty cool. And you're like, he's been blown in here. You snuck in there? Yeah, yeah. I had to do it. I had to do it. Did you blow him? I did. I blew him. Good. That's good. Still don't get the gig. Yeah.

Mr. Norman. Yeah, he's like, this is a mad TV worthy bloke. Sasso. We did kids in the hall. Yeah, yeah. There are new things supposed to be good. It's great. It's really good. It's really good. Oh, really? Yeah, I was watching it. It's on Amazon? Yeah, it's on Amazon. Do you know what I just fucking watched that's...

Here's a rec for you if you haven't seen it. Dina Hashem texted me to watch. She's like, have you seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit? And I was like, not since I was a kid. You haven't seen that? No, since I was a kid. So I just watched it. She's like, it's noir, it's silly, it's funny. Dude, it's great. It's so good. It's incredible. It's so good. Christopher Lloyd kills it. It's been a while, yeah. Yeah, it's a really artistic movie, actually, when I think about it. Oh my, it's brilliant. I mean, to make it like a clean...

The clean jokes, like instead of the wife's fucking around on them, it's she played patty cakes with another guy. Yeah. It's great. Yeah. And also just the way like I love the noir aspect where, you know, Betty Boop is like, yeah, I had lost all this work since tunes went to color. She's like, but I still got it. He's like, yeah, kid.

You do? Yes, yes. It's so dumb and great. I love it. Jessica Rabbit, the big gorilla who's in the tuxedo is the bouncer. Oh, I used to love that movie. So good. The car is funny. This is Boulevardier? Yeah. This is Stronger.

It's good. It's pretty much the same. Sam's coming back. Just a lot more. I am coming back. This is a terrible, I feel like we're the opposite of role models on this pod. Just keep drinking and you'll kill your hangover. Exactly, exactly. Hair of the dog, baby. That is how it fixes it. Mark, same thing for you? Another round? Or would you like something different? Go Boulevardier with me, dude. Yeah, I'll try a bull. Let's do it.

- All right. - Came into a doing these with Bodega Cat. - Is there a part of you that's glad you're sober for these after parties? 'Cause those get pretty wild. - Dude, there's never a part of me that's glad I'm sober. - Oh, okay. - I'm never like glad I'm sober unless I'm like listening to, like my friends, you know, if I'm on, when I was on the road with Bert and he would wake up in the morning,

hungover on that bus, I would be like, okay, I'm glad I'm sober. But it's like, you only get that in the morning. You don't get that at night when everyone's having fun. That's true. You know what I mean? But there is like a gift that comes with it where like, I'll leave right before shit goes down that I don't want to be there for. Like I get so many calls being like, dude, right after you left, the craziest shit happened. And I'm just, I'm always like. You tell the classic hotel bit, you should have hung out, man. Yeah.

What happened? Yeah. Oh. Yeah. But I'm always like, thank God I didn't see that. Yeah, it gets ugly. It's always one of my friends losing their mind in front of people that matter. Nothing good happens late. I mean, really, I bring Vita on the road with me for a reason. I need a sober guy to be like, don't do that. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's the other thing is like people...

People know I'm going to show up on time. They know I'm going to be there. I'm not going to do anything insane. Yeah, there's a darkness to that after hours. There's a lady thing or a woman starts crying.

Right. Something happens. Something always happens. He's always crying. Always. And I don't know what's happening. I know. Well, neither do they. They're not. They don't know why they're crying. It has nothing to do with whatever happened. You know what I mean? Right, right. You ever see like a table of girls out one night and you're like, that's going to end badly. Yes. Six girls are all dressed up. Always. And I can always tell which one's going to cry too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know which one's going to cry. Yeah. It's always the loudest one. Yes. The one that's like,

the loudest, the most confident. She's leading the fucking party. And then when she cries, they all sort of huddle around her. Right, right. They all are like, it's okay. I made a woman in the crowd cry on Saturday at Hilarities in Cleveland. I was... Oh shit, I have one of these. Yeah, I made her cry. I think I told you this already. I don't think I told you, but I...

i was it was the day of the abortion oh i saw the tweets and i just you know i'll tell you this too all the jokes were pro-women all the joke not that it matters because it's a comedy show but they were you know i said hey i'm for women's right to choose here's uh here's 10 minutes of abortion jokes yeah they're killing one woman starts hysterically crying she runs out i was like i don't know i kind of wish we had a talk like all abortion jokes are pro-women

you know for the most part for the most part i have one that's but i cover it up i i tag it with a pro yeah he calls he calls all women dirty whores but you got to be there no it's uh you know we uh still better than being a comedian it's an easy joke it's uh some lady yells me for telling an abortion joke and she's like i've had an abortion i'm like well what you did was worse

But that's not even anti. Yeah. It's just a joke. And then I spin it around. Yeah. But you know... Thank you. I will say...

I'm not mad when you're offended, honestly, because I get why you're emotional that day. So I'm kind of like, yeah, that's okay. It's misplaced. I'm not who you're mad at. But I think the left does that a lot where they will, instead of being like, fuck Republicans or like, fuck this overturning, they're like, fuck you. And I'm like, I was just saying I'm on your side. But it doesn't matter. There's like misplaced anger. That's true. Yeah. Yeah. There is a lot of that. I feel like that's...

I don't know. I made somebody cry this weekend, but it wasn't over the abortion stuff. You said, I'm keeping it. Yeah, I said, I'm keeping it. And Andy killed himself. It was like a guy who came to my show and was like,

said some shit about i guess he listens to the podcast with me and andy and i make fun of andy a lot and he makes fun of me a lot and that's just like our dynamic right but then people think that they can do that right and they don't a they don't have the skill to do it in a funny way and then b they don't fucking know him right you know so he was trying to like make fun of him and then

As I was listening to this, I was like, I could just laugh and let this go. But then I was like, that's such a shitty person thing. You know what I mean? And I just got pissed and I was like,

Hey, dude. I was like, maybe nobody like ever loved you enough to stand up to you or stand up for you. And I was like, but what you said, it was a fucking rude. I was like, you know, I don't know you at all. And you should think about that next time you talk to a comic. And I just, I just was like, I was really honest. But this man, grown man started to cry. Damn. Started to cry. I'm talking like 30. Oh.

Damn. That's too old. Pretty old to cry in public. Yeah. This is on stage to audience? No, this was after the show. I came out after the show and he was going into the next show. I thought he was there at the show before, but he was there for the second show. So then I had to perform for this guy. Ah.

Did you do your bit about men who cry? It's just so unattractive, right? Am I right, guys? It's just disgusting. Yeah, your face is wet, but I'm not. Nick Griffin does a great joke about how guys, when they cry, they always try to toughen it up by throwing a few curse words in there. They're like, fucking shit. Yes.

Yeah, you're still crying in public. Yeah, yeah. It's also just like so uncomfortable. I've never seen a man like cry in an attractive way because they just haven't for so long. Yeah. So their face looks constipated. No etiquette. You know? Yes, yes, exactly. Their face looks like an asshole that just fucking. The only handsome cry might be, and if you can pull this up, Peter's,

What's in the box? Seven. Brad Pitt holding a gun. Well, Brad Pitt. Oh, there's handsome cries. Denzel, the one teardrop. Come on. Oh, yeah. But look how cute. His wife's head's in a box. Come on. Yeah, but that's Brad Pitt. That's true. He can't. John Doe's got the upper hand. Damn, he looks good crying, too. Yeah, he's a hunk. Pull up the Denzel one teardrop. I don't know, though. I don't know. Look at his mouth. Glory. Yeah.

All right, all right. You know what I'm saying? You get wife and head in a box pass there.

Oh, that's a good cry. That's a good fucking cry. Is that a slave cry? Yeah. Yeah. Love a slave cry. Denzel is fucking cool. Jesus Christ. I mean, that could. No, it's powerful. Cinematic. Yeah, yeah. Jesus fucking Christ. Oh, no. There goes my job. That rule of RDA. I know, right? Mark, put that hood up. Wait, go back to that last one. Go back to that last one. That's disgusting. Who's that? Who's that guy?

Harry Styles? What are the best cries ever? Can we get like best film? Oh, you want to talk about a fucking pet peeve? It's people that go on social media to cry. I got a good one. That drives me fucking crazy. I'm going to send you a great photo. A woman left my show crying in Tampa. How many cries are you racking up here? This is from years ago. But I had to save the photo because it's so fucking funny. She took a picture of herself crying? Yeah. And tagged you.

In the comments, I'm going to send it to Peters. You can pull it up. And she wrote, leaving your show crying. You're going to like this. I just air dropped it to you. Jesus Christ. See, these people are all going through shit. This guy crying at your show, he's got some issues going on. Can you imagine how insane you'd have to be to take a photo of yourself, send it to a stranger, and be like, you made me cry? That's horrific. I don't understand. In what world is that like you're getting one in on them? I don't know.

I know. I don't get it. Well, the cry trumps things. That's why they do it. There she is. If you zoom in, it says, leaving your show crying. Okay. You can X out the name. We don't want to give real names here, but like, yeah. Yeah, that's, first of all, I don't see the tears. Yeah, barely. So that's fake. Yeah. Damn. Leaving your show crying. Same haircut as my mom. Surprise, surprise. What are the best movie crying scenes? I want to see what they go.

Milk Money. I remember that movie. Oh, Stand By Me. Wasn't that Melanie Griffith? Yeah. She was hot, dude. Super hot in that. That one's good. What are we going to do? Jerk off to this? I don't get it. Captain Phillips? I don't remember that one.

That's what I jerk off to. Men crying. Wilson Vince is great in Captain Phillips. David Tell joke. It's not your fault. That's a good cry. That's a great cry. That is a good cry. That's a good fucking cry. That is a great cry. I can't even cry for... Oh, Mr. Griver. That was good. Sean Penn killed it. I'm not going to cry for you. Yeah, Tom Cruise is fucking great in Magnolia. I'm not going to cry for you. Yeah. All of these are...

All of these are men crying. Oh, yeah. Good point. Yeah. Well, the women crying would be too long of a list. Right. It's too many. They're also like, it's not exceptional, you know? Right. It's not rare. You know why? Because women take photos of themselves crying and then send them to people that they don't even know. Yeah. No dude has ever done that. No. Leaving your show crying, here's proof. It's like, what? I know. Get it together.

Crying is definitely a private moment. It is. It's like, I mean, maybe this is because I was raised by, you know, Republicans, but I wasn't encouraged in my house to like cry like that. I still don't do it in public. Like I go to therapy and I'll sit on the couch and before he even walks in, I'll start crying just because I'm like, well, this is where I do this. Right. You know, but like. So you do the road, you write for SNL and you go to therapy every week?

Not every week. I do therapy. Now I do it over the phone. And I do it like once every two weeks. But I've been in therapy for like so long that it's like when I go now, it's like going to get a massage or something. I like literally treat myself to therapy because I'm like, whatever. Yeah. I could use it. Do you ever have the thing where you're making up stuff because you're like, oh, I'm here. No.

I'm generally like, hey, yeah. You gotta get your money's worth. But I understand, I totally understand the desire to do that and I tried to explain that to my therapist one time and he was like,

So what, you think you only need this when things are bad? And I was like, well, yeah. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. I'm not going to the gym if I'm thin. Right. Yeah, but that's what he said. He goes, so do you only, he's like, the only way to stay thin is to keep going to the gym. And I was like, oh, that checks out. That makes sense. You know? That makes sense. Like, you got to just stay on top of it. He's got you there. But you're not going to the doctor when you're healthy.

No, I'm not going to the doctor even if I'm not healthy. I'm just avoiding the fucking doctor. Yeah, do you have health care? I do, and I still avoid it. I still don't want to know. I'm like, don't fucking tell me. If I have a mole that's questionable, I'm like, I'll just see. I'll find out. If it's cancer one day, I'll find out. Yeah, I'm just like, la, la, la, la. I don't want to fucking know. I don't want to know. It's the only thing that I think kept me from being an opioid addict is that I didn't, I hate the doctor's office. Wow.

Good point. You know? You couldn't get a script. Yeah. There's no way I would keep doing a drug that made me go to the doctors every time. Right. People really fucking... Opioid thing is crazy. That's an epidemic. I know I'm saying the obvious, but it's like crazy how many people die from it. It is so...

- I mean, especially considering how we made such a huge deal out of COVID. - Yes. - And I kept thinking about the opioid crisis during this whole time, 'cause I was like, well, this is just raging and it's getting worse. - Yeah. - And every fucking day, I'm like, no one even,

It's so weird, it's people's kids. - I know and they pass all these laws where you can't sue them or whatever and nobody seems to give a shit. - Have you seen Dope Sick? - Oh, it's amazing. - Fucking so good. Michael Keaton is like, I think it might be the best I've ever seen him. I'm like, he's so fucking good in it. - It's great, it's heavy. - It's really heavy. - It's like really good and necessary but no one still cares. - Yeah. - Yeah, we need a few more TV shows.

Yeah. I know, right? What about, so you're on the road every week and it's like, I mean, I was texting you at a club. You were having, a club was not treating you well, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I had this experience at a club once where I like, I had texted Sam because I knew, I was like, who's on the road and pissed about it? Ah,

And I was like, you know what I mean? And you got me a weekend when I was in a good mood, actually. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I was like, I kind of wished that you had been having a bad weekend because I was like, not on you, but just to keep... To bond? Yeah, keep it going. Yeah, right. Because I was like, there's so much more poison I could spew about this. But I had been... All right, so I did this club. And the first day I get there, I was like, hey, you know, are there any dates that I should be concerned about? Any like...

where the numbers are low, like I can just do a last minute like blast, just fucking promote. And they were like, no, no, no, it's actually like we've got better numbers than we've had in a few weeks. And I was like, great, awesome. Next day I get there, first show's great. Second show, like as the first show is filing out, the manager gets over the PA system and goes,

All right, so we only have 12 tickets sold to the next show and we're going to have to cut the... Unless we get 15, we're going to have to axe the second show. And I'm standing next to her. I'm standing next to her. And she's saying this into a mic. And I turn to her and I go, are you telling me into a microphone that the tickets are low while the audience is filing out right now? Oh, man. And she goes into the mic. She goes...

I'm telling you, I'm telling the staff, I'm telling your features. Wow. And I go, okay, all right, I'm going to fight this woman. That's aggressive. I'm going to fight this bitch. Wow. I literally am going to fight her. So I asked her where the other manager was and she looks under her, I've never been out white woman like this in my life. She looks under her desk, like checks under the desk and then checks in the sky and goes, I don't know where he is. Oh.

And I was like, okay. Damn. I was like, all right.

I was like raging. When I tell you like, you know when you're so mad you're like shaking? - Yes, yes. - I was fucking shaking. - So did Michael J. Fox. - Yes, she gave me Parkinson's. So I go find the other manager and I go, hey, so-and-so just told me that the tickets are low, me and everyone else. Is this something you could have brought up with me when I asked you yesterday why the ticket sales were low?

And he was nicer about it, but he was like, well, no, I couldn't have because, you know, actually, like sometimes they just go on up on their own. And I was like, sorry, for who?

I was like, for me? Like, I'm not in that fucking position. And I know you guys aren't fucking promoting. So what the fuck? And I... This is messed up. It was so messed up. That's wild. So aggressive. It was so fucking messed up. And nobody ever came back in the green room to ask if I wanted anything to eat. Nobody. Like, I'm talking two nights in a row. And I was like, this is... Was this club in a mall?

- Yes. - Ah. - But it's-- - Mall comedy, baby. - Mall comedy every time. Every time. - It's just one of those where you're like, dude, are you pissed that I'm here?

Right. Are you upset? Like, it felt like I walked into their living room. That's my pickup line, by the way. Are you pissed that I'm here? What did I do? I don't understand. Well, that's the thing a lot of these clubs do now is like if it doesn't sell out or fill up, they're mad at you. Right. And you're like, well, your job is to kind of bring an audience in and I entertain them. Right. That's the job. Yeah. Well, that's what the job used to be. It used to be. Well, the mall thing is tough because you're like, look,

Mark and I are on the road almost every week, you know, and it's like there's that thing where you're... We want to be. I really do like the road. But there is a party that's like, yeah, some of these weeks...

are filling weeks. Yeah. Some of these weeks, like when you're performing next to a Spencer Gifts, it's hard to, you don't feel like you're living the dream. Like, are you pulling up my gigs? Yeah, let's check them out. How many malls do we have coming up? I don't know. That's a filler right there. What? That's a good one. No, I'm just kidding.

No, I literally was looking at my gigs and I was like, I think I sent them to you. And we were laughing. You were like, which ones are terrible? Yeah. And I was like, I'm going to give you the honest rundown. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I knew which ones were good because I'd been, I mean, all the improvs are fucking amazing. I like the improv as well. I really love the improvs. They just, they kind of, it's a well-oiled machine. Yeah. Right, right. They got it down. And they just,

They treat you like they're happy that you're there. That's all it really takes. That's all it takes. Honestly, I am happy that I'm there. Yeah. That's the thing. It's like you match. I mean, I've said this again. It's funny. I met Hilarities in Cleveland recently, and they play a thing in the beginning, and it's all these comics just saying it's a great club, and I'm one of the comics. It is a great club. And I was like, yeah, I fucking mean that. Because you walk in there, and Nick, who's the owner, who's just like an awesome dude, he meets you with so much love. I know.

- It's like a kind of enthusiasm that you're just like, you feel good. - Yes. - Right. - And then you're, and also he's a great guy and like, oh my God, I mean, that guy is like, since I was like a feature there, he's been awesome to me. - So cool, and the food's good. - The food is so good. - It's also nice when you know they love comedy.

I'm like I'm not part of a money laundering scheme this is like you know what I mean we've all been there there's just like you're like glad to be there because you know that they appreciate what you're doing money laundering you're at a comedy club please don't be child prostitution please don't be child prostitution just sex traffic hey better help folks we're brought to you by better help it's a hell of a product not a word

No, but I was there and they're just so nice. And Nick is like an old school, like Cleveland. First off, he's like a hot older guy. Sexy Italian. Greek. But he looks like the grandpa. Remember the grandpa from the show The O.C.?

He looks like that guy. We didn't watch that. You never watched that show? It was like the new Beverly Hills 90210. It's not a good show. But anyway, they're telling me this story and they're like, yeah, Nick fucking, some guy's acting up. Nick grabs him by the throat. He chokes him up and I'm like,

He's like old. He was like, yeah, he was like 65 when he did that. I was like, Jesus Christ. He's choking dudes out in his 60s. Yeah. Just to stand up for the fucking comic on stage. He's like non-racist Clint Eastwood in Gran Torino. Yes. He's Greek Torino.

That's a low-key hilarious movie. Oh, so funny. Literally just nonstop racism. Some old slurs, you're like, oh, I forgot about that slur. I forgot that one was around. He's like, that's creative. Yeah. Sort of the only thing white people ever invented. When is he, he's like 93. When is he going to stop casting himself as the tough guy? I know, I know. He's like 93. He's like, you fucking piece of shit. Right. It's going to be great with him and the new movie at the old folks home where Cuomo Yeah.

has never mind covid i'm not dying everybody around him's dying and the old folks are pulling up this is classic this is great god his face looked more and more like a vagina i do want to fuck his face oh the spit after oh she out spit him yeah that's that's fucking funny

They had to have his wife die in the beginning to make him somewhat likable. That's true. He's got a puss on. I want to see one of him and that lady spitting back and forth just bigger and bigger. That's the whole movie? Yeah. I could send you some links of that.

Smart to make it Asian, though. It's somehow less offensive if they're Asian. Asian people would love that. This is called Crazy Poor Asians. It's amazing that it's about an old white man with a gun saying, get off my lawn. And we're like, hell yeah, dude. Yeah. We're literally all on his side.

That is what all these shows are now. When did this come out? When did this come out? 08? Oh, yeah. Holy fuck. A lot has changed. Every show now, there's so many like Yellowstone. I love Yellowstone. But you're literally like rooting for like old white people to be like, they should have the whole state. They should own all of Montana. Don't replace them.

Essentially, you're just like... You're like, man, this show's making me pretty fucking Republican. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's why every dad loves that show, right? I love that. Yellowstone's fun, dude. Yeah. It's fun. My dad's been trying to get me to watch it. I can't. It's all about Rip. I can't get into it. That guy rules. He's sexy. And he's banging a Native American, isn't it? Yeah. Oh, no, that's the other guy. Oh, shit. That's Casey. Yeah. Sorry. Rip, yeah. This remark is a terrible thing.

Oh, beautiful! Oh, Jesus Christ! I made this edit. Zipperhead! What?

This is gonna get us pulled from YouTube. Hey, it's in the movies. He said colored. Could have been worse. Son of a bitch.

It's after 1 in the afternoon, stop warning. Get off my lawn. These are stacked fucks like you, five feet high in Korea. Use you for sandwiches.

Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ. His pants. I love that his pants are up to here, too. I know. This SNL packet is brutal. That would be great. You should write that. Just Clint Eastwood in the writer's room. I was literally thinking. I was like, this is like its own fucking sketch.

How many... Wait, is that Anthony Soprano? No, I wish. Even the compliments are rough. Jesus. Jesus Christ. The beginning of that last scene is hilarious too because he pulls up in the truck and they're like bothering her or whatever and, you know,

They're trying to jump him. They're about to jump him. And he like pulls out. He's about to pull out a gun. And he just pulls out like his finger. Yeah. And they're like, oh, this dude's crazy. And then he just pulls out a real gun after that. Oh, yeah. Yeah, the finger was the foreplay. Just like in real life. Wait, how much longer? How much longer was that video?

It's five minutes? That's like a hard percentage. They could shave five minutes off that movie? You'd think the cold would keep all the idiots out. What about that damn wood brother of yours? He's a little slow. This must be a tough one to edit for TV. They could shave five minutes off that movie if you took out the slurs? That's fucking crazy. Whoever's editing this shit for TNT is like, this is exhausting. Yeah. Right. You should see the Gran Torino 2. It's in Wuhan. Yeah.

This damn bat. I haven't seen either of them. I literally haven't seen either of these movies in full. Oh, that's great. It's a fun movie. It's a good watch. It's ridiculous, but Eastwood is great. Yeah.

It's crazy to me that that was made in 2008. Oh, yeah. A lot of fun stuff was around back then. It's like watching Blazing Saddles or something, where you're like, what? How was this made? It's crazy to me. I will say, Unforgiven is one of the best movies ever. Great Western. Eastwood is an incredible filmmaker. Although Million Dollar Baby stinks. Yeah, I never even saw it as a movie. Oh, it's such a cartoon. It's really bad. And it won Best Picture.

I think that was just like the best part is that he sings the song in the trail in the end in the credits for this. It's just him singing. Wait, I don't remember that. Pull that up. Eastwood just sings.

This is more offensive than the slurs. No, no. Pull up the song of Eastwood singing the credits, Salacuse. It's Gran Torino. He's singing the song in the credits. I remember being in the movie theater like, what? Yikes. Is he singing it to a chair? That was a big moment. I was like, oh, he's senile now. That's fun. Stacking bodies for the... This is it. Yeah. Yeah.

What the fuck? He's like Lizzo. He does it all. Except he's laying down on the couch because he's screaming so many slurs he's tired. He's like, oh, fuck. It took it out of me. Yeah. Dude, he sounds like... Tom Waits? Tom Waits, yeah. Yeah.

I never realized that Tom Waits was just Clint Eastwood. Young Tom Waits had a great voice. Oh, yeah. He just smoked and drank himself into having this scratchy voice. Like Janis Joplin voice. Right. But she died so young, we never really heard bad Janis Joplin. Dude, but that was, I mean, it's like, she didn't need to age. Yeah. Come on.

- I don't know, Steve-O's got that now where you're like, "Holy shit, you sound insane." - Yeah. - Really? - The smoking, yeah. - Steve-O, Josh Adam Myers, they got the drug addict voice. - Yeah.

- Damn, yeah, dude, he was, Tom Waits is fucking awesome. That first album he wrote, he was like 24. - Wow. - And it's like the most mature shit you've ever heard. Tom Waits, there's another rec for you. If you haven't heard his album Closing Time or Rain Dogs, they'll blow your fucking mind. - Yeah. - This is pretty fascinating. This is Tom Waits in an interview in Australia in 1979. And a young, he later was watching this in Australia. - Nice shot.

The Joker on this. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Whoa. I heard that, yeah. How about that? Funny guy, too. Oh, yeah. Wow. Holy shit. That is Heath Ledger. Why so serious? Oh, my God. Good pull, Sally. That's fucking scary.

That's insane. That sounds just like the Joker.

I fucking love Tom Waits. Yeah, he's so cool. Such a sexy guy. And also, like, really, I don't listen to him that often because if I do, I'm like, well, that's going to be my day. Right. You know what I mean? That's like a meal that you can't digest fully. It's going to fuck with you for the rest of the day. Right. I'm like, if I need to be in a good mood, I can't listen to this. Yes. But. That image from Rain Dogs, they recreated that for Fight Club.

oh is that right so you know the scene where ed norton is against meatloaf's tits yes that's hugging that's the cover of rain dogs whoa so rain dogs like that song is awesome but that song is i think basically like i think it's about it i could be wrong here but i think it's about a drunk because it's like about how dogs when they get wet they lose their sense of smell and can't find their way home so it's just about a drunk like i can't get home i'm too drunk a lot of his songs are like i'm sure yeah look at that that's

That's Fight Club, right? Yeah. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. Bitch tits. That's wild. Fight Club is cool. So fun. Palahniuk. RIP Meatloaf, man. Oh, yeah. Anti-vax. Wait, when did he die? He died like- During COVID? Five months ago. Yeah. Really? Yeah.

missed that yeah he was yeah that went right over my fucking head yeah there's i mean there's just been too many it's like everyone's dying now like we're getting to the age where the people that we watched growing up they're all dying off and you're like oh fuck just don't even look

You know what's the precursor to death is like seeing the shows you watched as a kid on Nick at Night. Yes. You're like, oh, fuck. Yeah. Fresh Prince is on Nick at Night now. Right. Fuck, 30 Rock. Oh, my God. And then you walk into Urban Outfitters, they're selling our band's t-shirts as a vintage. What are they selling? Yeah. Nirvana, Pearl Jam, all that shit. You're like, holy hell, Green Day. Yeah.

That's like, and that was like a few years ago that they started doing that. I know, I know. It's like crazy. When your musicians stop, when they stop going up shirtless, you're like, shit. Yeah.

He's like, fuck. He's gotten fat. Yeah. Iggy Pop and Jagger are still thin. And the Chili Peppers. They're sticking with the shirtless. Didn't Jagger, didn't he relapse recently? Is that right? I think he had, I think he was sick. He had like a heart surgery or something. He had a sort of, he had something happen. Well, that would, I mean, painkillers. Iggy Pop's a fucking man.

That song, The Traveler. Is that it? The Passenger. That's a great tune. Damn, he's still pretty ripped. He looks great. He looks like Anthony Kiedis. But he's got that old... He's got that leathery... Yeah. Creep skin. Would you? Ugh. No? No.

There's an episode of Bourdain where they hang. Because you can't watch your hands go into someone's chest like that. You know what I mean? Yeah, it's gross. You feel like you're playing with Gak. Another timely reference. He's like a full body Stretch Armstrong. Yeah. He's like, no thanks. No, he's awesome though. And he, I think. Dude, that is fucking old junkie body. You know what's fucked up though? That's best case scenario for all of us. I know, that's true. Yeah.

Yeah. That's a horror movie. Like, if you see that in dim lighting and a candle gets snuffed out before he walks in a doorway. Pull up his age, though. How old is Iggy Pop? Yeah. Yes. His stomach looks like a rich lady's neck. Yeah. How old are we talking here?

Dude, he looks amazing. He looks amazing. That's my dad's age. I think it's Bourdain and Iggy in Miami. I think it's the Miami app where they just hang in. Yes, on the beach. And it's like, oh, man. I remember that. Have you guys seen the Bourdain documentary? I can't do it. I won't do it. It's great. It's really good. I liked him so much. I don't want to accept...

I'll watch it at some point, but I don't want to accept that. I watch his show so much. Well, it's interesting. I never really watched his show. I wasn't into him like that. I loved him. But then I watched this documentary and I was like, okay, well now I'm in. I did not even know about this guy. I didn't watch the show. Everybody was telling me to. And so obviously I went like, no.

'Cause whenever people push something on me, I'm like, fuck you. I don't wanna watch it. - Like if four people tell you to watch it, you'll watch it, but if eight do, you're like, go fuck yourself. - Yeah, exactly. I won't watch Top Gun. So many people are like, you gotta see Top Gun. I'm like, I don't-- - You're fine. - I don't need to see it. I wanted to go see The Black Phone though. That's fucking sick. - I heard it's good. - Really? - Ethan Hawke, right? - Yeah, so good. - Black Phone, what is that about the cricket?

All right. Easy, Eastwood. It was, it's like the- Hey, Mark. Oh. That took me a second. That is the dumbest. Stephen King's son wrote a short story and they based this off of that. Oh, cool. Yeah.

Yeah, Ronan was just telling me he hated this, but then Sean Murphy was telling me he really liked it. Oh, I loved it. Both smart guys. Tough to call it. Well, Ronan's a fucking snob. He is. I mean, he's one of my best friends. He's the biggest fucking movie cunt I've ever met. Dude, it's so great. Oh, boy.

This is Black Phone? Yeah. Okay. This summer, Ethan Hawke is a pedophile. Ethan Hawke is Joaquin Phoenix.

Yeah, I still haven't seen everything everywhere all at once. I everyone's time any either. Yeah, I've seen that either. It's amazing Review it's uh like in the classic like Hong Kong comedy like Stephen Chow like kung fu hustle I love so it's like that but like, you know multiverse and a little more cerebral, but it's it's awesome and

Steven Chow is great. Like a cerebral film. Yeah, it's really funny, but it's hilarious. It's amazing physical comedy, just like in Kung Fu. There's some scenes that are clearly just reflective of that. So it's comedy? Yeah, it's mostly comedy. It's comedy, and then they also do have some kind of mental component. But it's mostly just funny. That's cool. So much movie talk in this, Bob. We love movies, man. Shit, what are you going to do? Who's the one who's...

I forget her name, who's in it. Michelle Yeoh. I'm sorry? Michelle Yeoh? No, not the main character, the supporting actress who's also one of the producers on it. White Lady? Yes, White Lady. I know who you're talking about. Not Jamie Lee Curtis. Jamie Lee Curtis, yes, yes.

And she's awesome. She wears like a fat suit. It's hilarious. She's like the villain for half the movie. Oh, that's great. Oh, fat suit. I love Jamie Lee Curtis. Oh, yeah. And her tits. Her tits are good. Oh, my God. True lies. Come on. Remember growing up, the whole thing about her being a hermaphrodite? Yes. That was like a weird thing where you'd be like, she's hot. And you'd have that kid growing up who's like, she's a hermaphrodite. You're weird. Right. And you're like, no, she's not. Yeah. She just had short hair in the 90s.

That's how we reacted. And even if she was, I would still motorboat. Still do it. What do I care? Come closer to the bed. Yeah, Fishkalwanda's great. Trading places. Look at that. Come on. Who is it in Fishkalwanda? Kevin Klein. Yes. I think he's one of the best comedic actors I've ever seen. Hold on. She's about to find her groove. Man, what a bod on this milf. Great bod.

By the way, she's like younger than you now. Yeah. Was she like, oh, really? Yeah. We're calling her a milf because of now. But oh, shit. I guess you're right. True Lies was fun as hell. Great movie. Yeah. Tom Arnold shined. Tom Arnold was so funny in this movie. I know. And that was it. Hey, don't knock the stupids, bro. No, this is. Yeah. If you didn't tell me this was True Lies, I'd 100% think that was a vampire movie. Oh, yeah. You know, the lighting.

Just that scene is like just Twilight. That's true. But that's the only thing with like men's movies is like, which I mean, I know True Lies isn't like a man's movie, but it is. It is. And like they're all shot with this like blue filter. So it's like I automatically just go, oh, that's for dudes. Yeah. Like Ozark is like all blue. We can't have too much color or we think we're gay. Right.

Oh my god, this is crazy. This was like a risk to have short hair back then. Yeah. Because people were like, what are you doing? I'm into it. I'm fairly certain this is the second or third time we watch this clip on the show. Salacuse. You guys just haven't jerked off yet? This is pre-twerking. You know, like this was pre-internet porn. This is a big deal. Yeah, I mean, that's crazy. Turn this off. I'm getting distracted. This is too hot.

This is also when white women were still dancing. Those, yeah, yeah. Those 80s movies where, like, we wore, like, the spandex with the fucking things. I remember, like, moms picking their kids up from school in D.C., like, just fucking...

in those things. Whoa. I'm like, we're just looking at your pussy. You know what I mean? Yeah. It was a better time. Pussy highlight. It was crazy. You know what's funny when they wear a belt with that thing? Yeah. It's spandex. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There's no, it's just purely decorative. Yeah. White women dancing is kind of like when you see Bob Cousy just dribbling a basketball like this. You're like, that's not, that ain't happening anymore. Right.

Right, we're done with that. I think the camel toe, a lot of people, a lot of women assume is bad, but I think guys like a camel. Yeah. I don't think we assume it's bad. I think we've caught on. I thought women were like, oh, camel toe, oh, shit. No, I think we've caught on. Yeah, but I, because I remember pulling, getting pulled over. When we were shooting the Letterman thing, the director, who's a woman, pulls me over and goes, hey, I just have a quick note for you. And I was like, oh, I'm in trouble or whatever. She was like, we're picking up a little camel toe. Really? Yeah, and I was like, no, I know.

I'm fully aware of that. They said the same thing to him. They actually kind of did. Do you remember that? No. They made me restart my set at Letterman. Why? Because I had my phone. I was wearing tight jeans and my phone in my pocket. I dip my first joke off and it gets a laugh. And I'm like, all right, here we go. We're off to the races. They're like, Sam? I just hear a voice mid-set. No. God? God?

Sam? I was like, what? They're like, you got to restart your set. There's a phone in your pocket. And I was just panicking. I go, no, it's my cock. Thank God I got something on that. But they're like, you got to restart your set. And Letterman runs over. He's like, you piece of shit. Fuck you. Trying to be funny with it. And then he grabs me close and he goes, I'm so sorry. He gets it. Yeah, yeah. And then I had to restart my set. But it's funny. We both had crotch-related mishaps. Yeah.

Good movie title. Yeah, graduated PG-13. Starring Kate Hudson. And Tom Arnold. Right. With Clint Eastwood as the racist uncle.

Yeah. That was a fun set, though. I watched it. It was really great. He invited us to his green room before. That was fucking weird. I know. He was hanging with Letterman. I know. It was awesome. You went in before me and you were like, he's nice. Yeah. Yeah, he was really nice. What was your experience? He was just very cool. I was like, he's so fucking cool. And it just felt like hanging with you guys. It felt like hanging out with a...

a comic yeah you know and I didn't expect that because he's a legend sure so I just thought all right well you know like this will be kind of painful for me but we'll get through it and like he just made me so comfortable and like I'm so glad he did that because he knows like we could have gotten in our fucking heads about it yeah like just sitting upstairs surrounded by like agents and managers which is like

- Oh, you had like 20 friends there. I had Norman. - No, I had two. - I had Norman and then my, no, you had so many friends there. - No, those were all agents and managers. - I know, but there's people for you. - Two comms. - I literally had Norman and one of my agents came for the, Berkowitz was there for the early show.

Yeah. But you were, but no one was there. I had like someone the whole time. Right. I literally said everyone else there had like a whole crew and I was like, I'm basically alone. But that's the way to do it. I feel like it is. You know what? I kind of like having people there just because it makes it feel like it's not big.

When people are there, they just distract you. Then you just go on, you do your thing. But when you're solo, you're just kind of like in your head like, oh, shit, I got to bring it. Yeah, I guess you're right. It kind of prevents you from overthinking anything. Exactly. Yeah, I never thought of it like that. Dave was cool as shit. I mean, it is interesting. Some interviewers will be like, I want it to all be real. First words I'll ever say to you will be on camera. But all he really did, we're not burning anything. He was just friendly and nice. Yeah, we were just talking. He was just like, oh, you know.

Just being like, hey, whatever you want this to be, it'll be. What do you say to you? I can't remember because I was on like two hours of sleep. Like I had done... Because you came from SNL. I came from SNL. Wow. What a career. Dude, I flew there. Yeah, it was a great year for me. Was it a 24-hour trip around? Dude, I flew there that morning. To LA. To LA. Yeah. And I got off stage and got into a car and fucking flew back from...

for the show on saturday and then you laid next to lizzo like oh fuck yeah yeah yeah i mean that's probably why when i was like looking at her conducting herself i was like oh that's how you do it yeah so you you were on the next morning you were out that next morning again are we on the same flight no yeah no i took a red eye back and that went red eye yes and went to damn 30 rock and was like sleep on the flight i mean kind of but like i was psyched i was like

That was the moment where when I was flying home where I was like, I can't believe how fucking cool what I just did was. I know. Because on the way there, I was like, I got to get there. I got to have all my shit together. But what? You just hope they edit it properly. Because we did what we set out to do. But then you're like, it's in their hands now. Yeah. But the editor, I know the editor because he works at SNL. So I was like, I know him. You know what I mean? I was like, and I knew that he was going to do a good job. It's not like I have, I wasn't going to like be in his ear or anything, but yeah.

he let me know like yeah i'm editing your set and i was like oh cool look you know i didn't want to ask to see it or anything i was like just do it i can't get involved because after editing my special i was like i can't ever look at that shit again it's too much it's too much you just hope yeah i mean i i do want to see stuff always but yeah it's a lot of that's a lot of work and you you don't i i really genuinely believe that you can't as a stand-up

edit your shit correctly because you need somebody who can do comedy editing, like who understands the timing of shit. Totally. But if you edit your own stand-up special like I had to, it's not...

you're not going to do a good, you're not an editor. You know what I mean? It's like, it's not your skill set. You should be in the room if you can be. Yeah, I agree. I have a great editor for my new one. I got a Clint Eastwood. It's going to be really good. You know, no, I was on the flight back that next morning. I remember, and I was doing the Beacon Theater then. It was like a big gig for me. And I remember, you know, being on no sleep. I'm on the flight with Chris DiStefano. He's right behind me. He's like massaging me. He's like, you got to get at least two hours, man. You got to get at least two hours. And I passed out. And as I woke up, I turned around. He was like, yes.

That's great. He's watching you sleep. He's watching me sleep. That's adorable. You did it. He pulled a Cosby. Just two hours. That's all I need. Just kissing my neck. He slides a drink in between the seats. But imagine hearing that. Well, first of all, kudos to you because a lot of people would go, wait, I got to go to SNL, then fly to LA, do this, then fly a red-eye back. It's just not feasible. Yeah, but you got to do that gig. It's a lot of money. Of course. But I think a lot of people would have turned that down. No.

Who's turning that shit down? The logistics are no good. It's too much. I don't know. I mean, I knew that the logistics were not good. And I get like, I understand turning it down if you think that you wouldn't be able to perform at the, you know what I mean? But like-

You got to do it. Yeah, you're the fucking adrenaline like kicks in. You get on stage and all of a sudden, however tired you are, it's just like it doesn't matter. Yeah. You know, you just although I did answer questions on there that I was like, oh, I shouldn't have answered that. Like there was I think he asked me I was making fun of like

some story where I woke up in the middle of the night and I was like having a panic attack and I asked Andy if I could see his credit card debt. And I was like, I need to know, I need to know how much credit card debt you're in. And, and so,

Letterman asked me, he goes, well, how much debt is he in? And I just gave the exact number. I just said it on TV. Yeah. Because my defenses were down. I had nothing to be like, oh, don't do that. Say this. Yeah. Like, make a joke. I just fucking told him. I was like, God, I really fucking hope they don't use that. And thank God they didn't. You're hoping it's Oprah and she just covers it. Yeah. Yeah, dude. I went home and I turned to Andy and I was like, dude.

I'm so sorry. Did they use that in the final thing? No. They didn't use it. You know what's interesting though? It's like he'd asked some stuff that we were prepared for, obviously. Not prepared, not like I had long bits ready, but some stuff you're like, oh, I can handle. I know what's coming. Yeah. But then he throws some stuff my way that I was like, I didn't know he was going to ask me that. Right. And I think it's kind of good to get- You need a little of that. It's a good mix. Yeah. Because-

some of my best lines were riffs yeah you know they weren't things i was like i'm gonna say this they were like yeah you know i'm i'm trusting the muscle memory here of just right years of doing stand-up right yeah just being able to talk and make it funny you know and also like i i felt like the interview gave you a chance to like be funny in a different way you didn't have to necessarily do a joke joke like because you have the interaction and so different things could happen you know i like seeing what that's kind of what i'm

fucking with on stage right now is just like because I have always been like a writer like I'm like I want to write it's got to be perfect and like I don't want to you know there's something about that where you can kind of like hide behind the jokes a little bit oh yeah and I'm like I'm trying to get comfortable on stage in a way where I don't necessarily have to I want to keep the jokes but

I want to be more comfortable. I want to feel like, yeah, you're unstoppable. Yeah. So riff on the room. Fuck with a guy. Go back into material. Right. Yeah. That's really the top level. Yeah. Performing. Yeah. It's like when you get off when when you watch a comic and they're really great. You're like, fuck, they're a good writer. And like, I just want to hang out with them.

I want to know what they're like. Yes. The weird thing is I think that comes from not giving a fuck. Yeah. Which you can only get from just doing it over a million times for years and years. Yes. By the amount of time, if you do your fourth set in the night, you're kind of like, yeah, well, I got three good ones so far. Let's fucking, we're playing with house money. Let's have some fun. And then that one's the most loose and interesting. Yeah. And sometimes you bomb, but sometimes that bomb is good for you too. Yeah. I mean, it's funny as much as I shit on, like, look,

doing four sets in a night can be dumb as shit sometimes. It can be a waste. But other times you need that fourth show to be like, I'm going a different way with this joke. Yeah, I want to see what the fuck happens. And you find a line and I'm like, I didn't think I'd find it. Do you have any peeves or anything? Oh, yeah. Ha ha ha.

Oh, yeah. Yeah. I got a ton. I mean, are we talking just stand-up peeves? Anything. It could be anything. Okay, so, yeah. The first is seeing a kid in first class. That's a great one. That's a good one. That always fucking pisses me off. Like, every time. Especially when you're one away from the upgrade. Yes. Yeah.

Yes. I get so mad. I'm just like, what the fuck is this? That's an ad for an abortion right there. And their feet don't even hit the ground. You're like, you don't even need that big seat. Yeah. They're kicking their dumb legs. I got, I get so fucking mad. Yeah. Yeah. That drives me insane. Like, and when my dad, I used to fly with my dad and my mom all the time and they would fly first class and they would kick me and my fucking sisters in the back and they'd come, they'd get us.

when we got off the plane. Well, if you're a kid, you don't need it anyway, right? Yeah. You kind of want to see a flight attendant just come with like a rag and go...

Like you just dump the kid in the closet or something? Put him in the overhead. A seat just opened up. I also think kids are better behaved when they're not with their parents. That's true. You know what I mean? I really do. I think you put them in the back of the plane and then they just chill. It's true. Because other adults are terrifying. You can't fuck around with some old fat guy. Like some Clint Eastwood guy next to you. He's going to be like, shut the fuck up, kid. Okay, sorry. Yeah.

Nobody loves you back here. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. Dude. You gotta earn enough money to get up there. Right, right. That's a good peeve. Good one. That's one. Good peeve. Yeah. I'm sorry. No, go ahead. Keep going. Well, I had one about, you ever have this one where the guy goes, he goes, you gotta try this chair. It's a very comfortable chair. And you sit in the chair and you're like, this is very comfortable. He goes, I told you. I know. That's why I'm sitting in it.

- That is a specifically male problem, I think. - Yes, yes. - That's definitely something men do together. - Wanting credit. - Wanting credit, the I told you when you agreed already. Like, yeah, yeah, I'm on board. - I get that with a lot, I have a friend who'll send me videos, be like, oh, that's funny. He's like, yeah. I'm like, you didn't make the video. - I know.

The fuck are we doing? It was good. Good job finding it. Everyone's a fucking curator now. Yeah. Yeah. Just because they've got the internet. Good job finding a video that probably someone else sent to you. Yes. Yeah. Give me and I told you when I when I didn't believe you and then you prove me right. Yeah. The Twin Towers will be fine.

I think they're going to be in trouble. No, they'll be fine. I told you. All right, I'll give you that one. I do feel like that is one of the ways that dudes can kind of relate to being coerced into sex is if you've ever been shown a YouTube video you didn't want to watch by a good friend. You know? You'll like it. Oh, fuck. Oh, fine. You're like, okay, I don't want to, you know. Thumbs down. Yeah.

You're like, I'll play nice, I guess. The ending, it'll pick up in the end. I got a pee for you. I'm at the Village Underground bathroom. There's one sink there, right? And there's a guy just lingering, slicking his hair. The wet water, you know? All water's wet. The water, he's wetting his hair. He's just doing this. And I'm just like, I'm trying to wash my hands. I have to wash this guy. Then he does the same thing in front of the towel machine. He's just like...

Ew. Oh, God. And you're like. Get in, get out. It's so small, right? Yeah. That you're like, you're just now watching him get ready, right? Because you're just in that space with him. So you're just standing next to him while he does it. Right. That's pretty annoyed. That's true. You also, we have phones. If you want to do the mirror thing, do it in your fucking phone. You don't need the mirror. Right.

You got that. Just take it outside. If there's multiple, if you're alone, do whatever you want. But if there's a wait, be respectful of other people. Right. That's all I'm saying. Yes. And the guys who get too comfortable in the bathroom. In a New York bathroom, get out of here. Yeah. Come on. Oh, you know what else is fucking annoying? Peace. Ayahuasca people.

Oh my God. I just did one of these. Ayahuasca people suck. That's a great one. I did one of these recently. Really? Ayahuasca? No, I went on a date with a woman a while back and she was like pushing Ayahuasca on me. Yeah. She was like, it's 10 years of therapy in one night. And I said, that sounds fucking horrible. Yeah. I'm not doing that. That's a lot of crying. And also, if that's the case, why do you have to do it once a year?

What is happening to you? True, true. They're always like, yeah, it's 10 years of therapy. I'm like, well, you just said you do it every month. Exactly. And if you're so enlightened, then why are you on a date with me? Just kneel. Does Neil do it? I assume he does it. Really? Constantly. He took Chris Rock with him. Wow. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Damn. Ayahuasca people is a great one. They drive me nuts. Yeah. Leonard Cohen was a big ayahuasca guy, but he didn't seem annoying about it. If you do, you do whatever drugs you want. Just don't be fucking annoying. And also just like say you're doing drugs. Stop telling me you're doing therapy. Yeah. Stop dressing it up. You know what I mean? Right. Just you go to the wood like you're going to the woods to do drugs. All right.

That's what's happening. You're not fucking, it's like. This is a shaman. He doesn't have a degree. Yeah. He's not a fucking shaman. That actually like really freaks me out is like the idea of if you don't like really intimately know someone who's doing that and you're just doing like that drug tourism thing in like Chile or something and like you're in the jungle with some random dude who preys on tourists. Right. And he's going to get you all fucked up out of your head and then leave you in the jungle. I know. You wake up in a gimp suit like in Pulp Fiction. You're like,

you're supposed to get into a good headspace before you do any of that. I don't think that would be possible for me if some dude took me into the middle of a South American jungle. I don't know if that's possible for me after 10 years of therapy, getting in a good headspace. I've never been in a good headspace. Which I've heard is only one night of ayahuasca. So.

Well, shrooms you won't even do with randos. But you gotta do this with randos in the jungle? Yeah, it's insane. And they tell you to like go off your meds. Like if you're on meds, you gotta go off your meds for like 30 days beforehand. I gotta go off my cancer medication. I'm doing eye wash. Right. It's,

all these like self healers that are like, they're all over the internet and they're like, they're just, and I've seen a lot of comics that like didn't do well in comedy be like, I'm a healer now. And it's like, this is the saddest thing I've ever seen. And I'm just like, just say you failed at whatever it is that you did. Cause I, I've literally, I've never seen anybody who like quit wall street to go do like Tibetan sound. Yeah.

That's a good point. You know? I'm a stand-up healer. Yeah. It's fucking sad is what it is. That's true. You know, two bartenders and two strippers, former strippers in Miami who are healers. There you go. Yeah. It's always somebody that you're like, all right, well, I don't, I'm not even convinced you fucking healed. Yeah.

You're a clear healer. Right. And they're always like, they're telling you like, people who have real mental disorders, they're like, yeah, just, you can heal yourself. You can heal your own trauma. I'm like, oh my God, these are...

it's gonna be a nightmare for i want out of a conversation with you casually like i think i'm gonna go fucking pay money to go to a jungle with you these some of these healers i mean and it also is really disrespectful because there are people out there like there are chiropractors and massage therapists and acupuncturists who are like legitimately gifted at what they do yeah so when these people are just like i'm a healer you don't get to call yourself that no that's like calling yourself one of the greats right other people say that shit about you yeah

Or iconic. That's my favorite. That's the Gen Z version. I'm iconic. I'm iconic. It's like, okay, all right. I was thinking of Eddie Murphy when you think of that. Right, exactly. He's a healer. Yeah. You watch his movies, you feel a little better. Yes. That's healing. 100%. I mean, dude, Nutty Professor, I've said it on this podcast many times, I've gotten some shit for it, but he should have gotten an Oscar for that movie. Oh, easily. That movie's insane. Three Oscars. Great. He played nine roles in that. Yeah. Incredible. Incredible.

That's a healer. That's a real healer. That's a fucking healer. But they can't do that. It's like the guys who teach comedy. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I took a class with Mackie when we started. Oh, yeah? Did you? Yeah. Did it help? Yeah. All right. It was just a place to get up what wasn't an open mic. So there was like one supportive room. Oh, right. But he got up. So that's good. Yeah. Yeah. No, it wasn't like it was just. But like, yeah, I'm glad I took it. Yeah.

There's some comics that do teach classes where I'm like, okay, that's cool. I know Jess Curson taught a class for a little while. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If that's your teacher, you're in great hands. Yeah, she's incredible. She's a healer. Yeah, that's a healer. That's a healer.

- Now that's a healer. - That's a hashtag right there. - Right. - Healer. - Everyone comment healer on this YouTube. Upvote us for healing.
