Transcript

00:00:00.000 welcome back to another episode of andrew says my guest the always wonderful ryan long how are you
00:00:10.240 buddy yeah i just uh lost all my money on luna what is that i'm gonna really you know okay so
00:00:19.060 luna is uh this stock or uh sorry like a crypto currency scam it's a crypto scam that people lost
00:00:27.720 all their money on and and like over 10 people killed themselves oh my god yeah that's the death
00:00:33.880 that no one wants to talk about that's a dark dark start to the episode how uh-huh how have you been
00:00:41.180 um so if you if you have any money left so i to me i think that all the people that committed suicide
00:00:49.460 um it's sort of like a coward's way out because if you think about it really you could probably
00:00:55.180 pawn your stuff steal from your mom and buy the dip i think that you know i think luna is going
00:01:00.360 straight up from here this is my mind this is economics 101 i think about yeah crypto that was
00:01:06.260 a dip that was meant to be bought and i don't care where you have to get that money if you have to
00:01:09.800 pawn your mom's jewelry to harold the jewelry buyer so yeah that's right that's a good that's a good
00:01:17.180 reference and uh and uh he i don't know i'm bulldozing over you with my toronto commentary
00:01:23.640 that's fine the jewelry buyer as of uh today is in court right now for uh he he sells mortgages now
00:01:32.240 right and he essentially like scammed this like mentally challenged woman out of her house
00:01:37.880 why does that happen so much in toronto do you remember the old story of the woman who was
00:01:42.540 panhandling and pretending she'd have seizures and she'd go back to her penthouse oh yeah that was
00:01:47.540 a classic yo that was like one of the best hustles ever though that that was other people that were
00:01:53.820 you know homeless kind of look up to that that's they're like gary b yeah oh well that's new york
00:02:00.680 and new york homeless are you know they mean business right they they all have that like you
00:02:05.420 know because you know how like gary b it's like every time you take a shit like that's five minutes
00:02:09.900 of productivity that you just flush down the drain right whereas the homeless people when you see
00:02:14.440 them taking shits on the street that's because they just you know what i mean they they can't
00:02:20.500 take the time off of uh panhandling so that's when you see that you're like oh this look at this guy
00:02:26.920 he's you know he's giving up on life he's shitting on the streets but in reality he's just not taking
00:02:31.800 time off well whereas you know you plebeians and that's how he gets ahead you know that guy probably
00:02:37.340 has five homeless guys working for him that's what people don't realize but in new york homeless he
00:02:41.720 goes back to his penthouse on top of the empire state building that's a real productivity there
00:02:47.580 i want to that's exactly what it is yeah y'all sleep and he's working i've always wanted to reconnect
00:02:53.040 with um what's his name cash man russell oliver i want to bring him back into the limelight if you're
00:02:59.720 talking about toronto jewelry guys he was the best of the jewelry guys i actually did a show back in
00:03:04.580 the day called crown the town with ryan long where we interviewed all the jewelry buyer guys right
00:03:08.320 yeah yeah and uh yeah oliver was the coolest one probably he was uh the biggest personality the other
00:03:15.800 one i mean it's a scummy business right so you have to the whole business model is essentially
00:03:21.040 you know bring in your family heirlooms and we'll give you 15 cents for them right
00:03:25.180 like that's essentially what they did why don't you make a music video with him that would be off the
00:03:30.300 charts i could come back to toronto yeah that could be my return me and oliver uh start a
00:03:35.460 podcast together essentially a hip-hop podcast i don't know if a podcast is the right way to go i
00:03:41.260 don't know how much how much how much legs the russell oliver podcast will have you'll have to be
00:03:47.000 carrying that i think unless he's just financially backing it you're thinking of more of like a white
00:03:51.200 boy rap thing where we rap really fast i'm thinking of just straight up make a new commercial
00:03:56.180 for him that can also go on your page as an option so there's definitely a lot of options and i'm
00:04:01.600 that's the thing there's you you can always be doing more you know what i mean like every day you
00:04:07.320 wake up and you go you know what i think i did a lot today but did you start a rap career with
00:04:11.160 russell oliver you did not so you didn't do everything did you i guess you can't don't put
00:04:16.520 off today or tilt more what could be done today how is new york treating you it's good but yes i am
00:04:23.160 uh going on tour look i have him there so i'm coming to vancouver and edmonton so yeah
00:04:28.720 look at the fellas those tour well those people yeah in toronto and canada i'm coming to vancouver
00:04:34.300 and edmonton and i'm probably gonna add uh more dates i'm probably gonna do a toronto and i'm
00:04:38.520 probably gonna do montreal calgary go ahead and add an oshawa show to that one for me it's a close
00:04:44.440 a little bit closer oshawa yuck yuck shout out yeah there's but the thing is oshawa i think that
00:04:50.900 it's close enough to toronto that i don't know if i'll do this is just for my convenience only
00:04:55.500 do you live in oshawa right now no i live close to it though that's a i'm from oshawa
00:05:01.060 whoa bro my hometown aren't you from ajax is this news to you or is this like what people think
00:05:09.440 oshawa this is yeah yeah this is the first you're hearing of this that oshawa's a dump this is new to
00:05:14.780 me i thought that when you go to the south end and see the dilapidated houses and the people
00:05:20.220 you know doing various drugs that i won't name well my mom lived there for the last 10 years
00:05:26.880 what's her exact intersection um well she's sort of you know she's uh just different street corners
00:05:33.820 right but i didn't mean like different street corners and then hourly motels essentially that
00:05:40.340 sounds like the south end of simcoe to me she yeah it depends on you know what client she's
00:05:46.780 working with and stuff like that oh ajax how we how we are enemies i guess mortal enemies um the
00:05:55.640 other thing i wanted to ask you about regarding new york though is i know that your most of your
00:06:00.580 skits are done there the tucker carlson one though that you just dropped a couple days ago
00:06:05.240 it's almost like do you ever say this is going to be almost too easy do you have to parse through
00:06:11.320 the material that you get to just take the 99 best of them like i feel like you went out there and
00:06:17.400 just being like this is going to be too easy well yeah so the video i did was i asked new yorkers if
00:06:22.480 they wanted to donate to it took a tucker carlson and what was the documentary called you were telling
00:06:27.360 them oh i just kept making up new ones killery and the something i i said yeah killery and liberal
00:06:33.840 lies and then i told them they said there's one called teachers are pedophiles and i said
00:06:37.200 no we can just take your picture and we'll put it in the credit so everyone knows you're part of the
00:06:40.400 project and everyone's like no i don't want to well i was doing a bunch of those i did one uh i did
00:06:45.480 i did kind of the same thing uh before where i was promoting the disinformation uh governance board
00:06:51.600 and i was like and then i did one like promoting cnn plus and then uh yeah so i was kind of doing a
00:06:57.580 bunch of those where i was getting people to try to like sign up for something that they didn't want
00:07:01.220 you run into a naked guitar player man a couple times everywhere yeah yeah he's been crazy 30
00:07:07.940 years yeah so there's this guy that lives in new york and he's at times square and he there's so
00:07:14.260 there's two uh regulars in times square well there's a few but the one of them is uh this there's this
00:07:23.260 this uh lady that basically just she's naked and she plays guitar and then there's a guy that's naked
00:07:29.180 plays guitar but the lady's like you know 60 years old and like big saggy fucking tits
00:07:35.100 and then uh the naked cowboy dude every time you're filming a video he always comes he always
00:07:42.160 gets involved right so yeah the naked cowboy guy's always there it's kind of a toronto has a few of
00:07:48.440 those guys right they have like the silver elvises and stuff like that but yeah time square is a few
00:07:53.460 staples there's a batman guy that uh that i'm like friends with now i think i was he in a video
00:07:59.600 i feel like i remember i did a video i mean and we're talking about uh which kind of titties he
00:08:04.380 like yeah i love when the videos devolve into just like i'm sure you went out there for a different
00:08:10.600 purpose and it's just one guy just going who's willing to answer any question you throw at him
00:08:15.260 for 25 minutes that's kind of essentially what happens yeah there was uh there was a guy that i did
00:08:21.160 so i did this video for cnn plus and then they tried to kick me out of the market and then this
00:08:25.060 guy that guy yeah yeah so this guy started yelling at everyone being like you can't kick him out of the
00:08:30.720 market and i i was sort of like yeah this guy has my back right and it ended up being a whole big
00:08:36.020 thing and the video kind of went viral and then um uh i so people kept tagging me in this everyone
00:08:41.920 was telling me i need to get that guy on like the podcast and stuff like that but i don't know what
00:08:45.000 i don't know i didn't get his information or anything right and i was kind of like maybe i could track
00:08:48.620 this guy down and then i found yesterday people were tagging me in this video where some other
00:08:53.080 guy that filmed yeah was filming him yeah and then in the video he was arguing with this other guy
00:08:59.460 and then he goes just so you know i was on this uh comedian's uh page talking about uh free speech
00:09:06.200 and it just did 400 000 views like just yesterday and he was like bragging about his like fame for my
00:09:11.700 video so he's like feeling himself right now because he's like because everyone loved him in the video
00:09:16.780 all the comments were like this guy's the man so he's kind of walking around telling other people
00:09:21.140 like i don't know if you know this but i'm like a viral star currently and he's bragging so i'm i'm
00:09:25.780 gonna post that clip of him saying that and see if anyone could track him down i'm sure now he's just
00:09:31.380 the free speech activist for whatever this you know farmer's market is maybe he's hanging around
00:09:35.840 there more well people liked him because he was kind of he was this like super liberal guy or
00:09:41.700 whatever but um like a liberal guy that's into free speech kind of like the old school ones so
00:09:48.560 that's why everyone liked him because they were like yeah this is a lot of people were like yeah
00:09:52.420 this is how i see myself as like you know fairly liberal but like i don't think that has to include
00:09:57.940 that i'm like trying to shut down speech or whatever yeah everybody sees themselves as guy roaming the
00:10:02.840 park defending that's it that's what everyone said they're like you know this guy's the man that a lot
00:10:08.100 a lot of the comments the gist of it was like this is how it used to be like that's a this guy was uh
00:10:13.180 the good old days for them you know what i mean for sure that because that gets like a dying breed
00:10:18.860 a little bit that i mean there's obviously some out there but more than a little bit yeah that's
00:10:24.260 like a dying breed like the liberal who likes free speech i think the last sort of yeah say that
00:10:29.680 they kick you out sort of i think that if you're like oh if you like free speech they're like wow then
00:10:34.200 the club the last time we spoke we talked about how you were sort of felt that you were ahead of
00:10:41.080 the curve on like not believing any of the politicians on either side do you feel i think
00:10:45.420 it's been like six months or something since we last had you on do you think that that has become
00:10:49.720 more obvious to people now no i don't think it's become more obvious to people but uh yeah politicians
00:10:56.060 are professional room readers right so they i don't think you know they basically are really good
00:11:00.900 right now especially as partisan things are right now politicians are very good at you know feeling
00:11:07.780 out the same way i might do that in like a comedy club they're really good at feeling out what they
00:11:12.720 think their base wants to hear and then you know kind of regurgitating their own opinions back to them
00:11:17.580 right the popular opinion and uh that just gets worse and worse but no i think that people are even
00:11:24.000 more uh it's almost like i would say when the like as far as like left and right stuff to me it was
00:11:32.560 kind of like like left were getting uh pretty you know wild in terms of like everyone's kicked out of
00:11:37.660 their group now i see that kind of happening again on the right or whatever and it's almost like it's not
00:11:42.380 like one got better i'd say that they're both bad both more bad now like i would say the two least
00:11:47.980 favorite people on twitter are if if you get like and the people that never get your jokes is if you
00:11:54.800 get like quote tweeted by someone their thing is like mega 421 hey mega patriot let's go brandon mom
00:12:03.240 you know god that woman or like non-binary she her you know ukraine if you see those two people
00:12:11.520 tweeting you you can almost guarantee that's not going to be a fun person well i do this thing where
00:12:16.180 i like to just bait those sort of people so when elon musk was taking over twitter i went ahead and
00:12:22.540 said if elon musk buys twitter then i'm moving to canada specifically oshawa ontario and all the
00:12:28.960 replies were from the the accounts you described we don't want your kind in canada we don't need
00:12:33.660 any more left-wing wusses in canada too many wokesters here already and it has and i think you're
00:12:39.060 right it's become even fired up yeah and that's just like you didn't do you didn't even click on my
00:12:43.560 profile republicans are fired up right now they're they're sick of this shit did you see what
00:12:50.040 happened uh what beto o'rourke did in texas i did yeah yeah he just walks up he kicked flipped onto
00:12:56.220 the stage with his slingshot he it we're laughing at it but what he did was he walks into a room where
00:13:02.780 the sheriff and the senator and the mayor of the town where the kids got killed are talking about
00:13:09.960 what they want to do and there's parents on stage too and he's just like you haven't done enough
00:13:13.940 you this is your fault and it's like you talk about reading the room i'm not sure what he was
00:13:19.260 reading there though and he had all his cameras with him he's looking for a viral moment yes of course
00:13:24.260 yeah yeah they're like i don't know what's what's your opinion on uh because obviously canada's so much
00:13:32.880 different than america like this stuff like school shootings don't happen there what do you think
00:13:36.720 i think that on most of these cases it turns out that the kid has been spoken to about it before
00:13:45.200 is on some sort of brain altering drug and usually they ignore for lack of a better term the red flags
00:13:52.980 about this kid and i don't understand why they don't put like in for the last like 30 years i feel
00:13:58.860 like in like the hood if you want to call it that or like violent neighborhoods where gangs will
00:14:04.080 actually come to school to act out gang killings they've had metal detectors they've had clear
00:14:08.960 backpacks they've had security detectors in my school there you go so i don't understand and police
00:14:14.000 we had police in my school i don't understand why there can't be like some people say like one entrance
00:14:19.040 that's kind of a fire hazard in my opinion but why can't you just have secure they don't have to scan
00:14:23.380 everybody that comes in because i don't know they can't really skim off the ukraine budget though
00:14:27.740 i've been hearing some people say stuff like that like why can't you just have security
00:14:32.980 just at the entrances and exits like they don't i don't even think you need to go as far as metal
00:14:38.020 detectors you can tell when somebody's trying to sneak a lot of guns in i think maybe i'm wrong
00:14:43.120 but you you wouldn't have to scan every person unless there's a uh what's the word i'm looking
00:14:49.480 for a pattern of people sneaking weapons into school otherwise in these last few situations it's just been
00:14:54.480 literally somebody walking up to the school with guns and there's also a deterrent from there's also
00:14:59.720 like a deterrent element just the idea that people know that there is security there but
00:15:03.920 i think that that's like uh not going to be a popular i don't think that like from partisan wise
00:15:11.520 that'll be popular because it's sort of like concedes that people aren't going to get the gun
00:15:15.880 control they want if they agree to that so i think that that's why that's going to be hard to actually
00:15:20.720 pass well when we look at gun control i think it comes like some of the most recent evidences of why
00:15:29.200 it's not good to take everyone's guns away is like australia for example to a lesser extent canada but
00:15:35.380 in australia uh they decided to lock people up in camps for a while if they thought they were sick
00:15:40.880 and then they which resulted in some people trying to get smuggled out in trunks of cars
00:15:44.920 and highway patrol catching them and everything so i think that they're and i think it was my friend
00:15:50.420 uh gary sheffield who said this that the reason why they wouldn't even try that in america is because
00:15:55.880 people have guns i don't know if that's true that yeah i've heard that i mean i've been thinking about
00:16:01.140 that a lot over the last two days and uh i i think that it's like a narrative people like to believe
00:16:09.880 if you're into guns i mean it it's like i think it's hard to parse out like a culture that's you
00:16:16.400 know uh like freedoms kind of embedded in their thing and the guns so you can there might be you
00:16:23.060 know right now that may not be true but that may be because of the fact that there is like a second
00:16:29.560 amendment here so it might it's hard to like remove those two things and look at them independently
00:16:34.980 even if it's not at the moment directly connected that's a very it's possible it's possible if they
00:16:42.740 if there was like far stricter gun control like you know red states in america would still have had the
00:16:47.720 same reaction like obviously that's a possibility so um i don't know there's a it is a it is a tough
00:16:54.160 one and it's like the one thing that i i was kind of saying that i like it's kind of interesting
00:16:59.960 whenever you see people whenever someone right now i've seen a lot of people kind of saying like
00:17:05.520 oh this is crazy that people are using this for political purposes you know what i mean people be
00:17:10.020 like oh i can't believe that you know that's so wrong of you to use this shooting for you know to
00:17:14.920 try to push your political ends and i'm just like yeah everyone does that i'm like to me it's like
00:17:19.660 naive to even like to point that out you're like every yeah you're you go are you are you are you
00:17:25.680 blind like that's what everyone does always on both sides the same you know the same way that
00:17:30.980 someone on the fucking left wing right now is like oh look at um there's uh you know this school
00:17:37.440 shooting this is why we need more gun control okay imagine if uh there was like 15 trans kids that
00:17:42.600 you know transitioned at 50 at 14 years old and they all died with the right not being like this is
00:17:47.940 why we need this to stop and politics yeah of course obviously i don't even it's like a truism that
00:17:53.320 that's gonna happen so i don't know it's like it just seems crazy to me to kind of point out be
00:17:57.400 oh can you believe these guys and you're like yeah you also do that and so does everybody that's kind
00:18:02.140 of the game well yeah that's why it's surprising that beto o'rourke wasn't actually kick flipping a
00:18:06.920 skateboard uh zoom in on a picture of that guy and you'll see the sadness in his eyes is what i say
00:18:12.200 um this is a far stretch from what i texted you about you said monkey canadians talking about guns
00:18:17.940 huh we should oh that's fine i'm just saying i asked you what do you want to talk about and you
00:18:21.980 said monkey pox i was kind of kidding i'm not if you want to talk about monkey pox ryan long and
00:18:27.980 this helps you sleep at night i will be your therapist about monkey pox well apparently uh
00:18:33.540 there's some debate but a lot of people are sort of saying it came in from gay bathhouses so i don't
00:18:39.880 know if you've gotten checked but uh i mean this is what i deserve i'm starting to learn now ryan when
00:18:45.460 we do our live streams during the day we get like the super chats and stuff i'm starting to learn
00:18:49.580 that the people that that associate with me or watch me or whatever they do just they just give
00:18:54.320 it to me you know and i think that's what i deserve i think the guys in the bathhouse were
00:18:57.720 giving it to you i did read a bbc article that said it is yeah you did um bbc magazine this is i'm
00:19:06.580 all right i'm just gonna let you go i was i was listening to some a podcast yesterday that said
00:19:11.220 don't interrupt the comedian when he's free-flowing before i wasn't free-flowing you're just like i'm
00:19:17.020 you're like i'm not gay i was just these guys were giving it to me and bbc's you're going on
00:19:22.880 and on about bbc's i didn't want to and i was listening to the village people recently as well
00:19:26.940 and um no but the british broadcasting corporation article was talking about how it is something
00:19:35.380 that's uh you know prevalent in the gay community and that it's one of these things that you can only
00:19:40.780 get through you know the same way i don't think only get but i think you know that was kind of
00:19:46.320 the where it started allegedly but it is but also some people don't even get symptoms if they've
00:19:51.200 gotten it which is interesting but belgium has put in lockdowns already which is an interesting
00:19:55.900 reaction to that i don't know right it was just making me laugh the idea that you know they're
00:20:01.640 them kind of saying that oh everyone's getting monkeypox from the gay bathhouse and then some guy
00:20:05.900 with monkeypox explaining to his wife like okay i can explain like and uh and the idea that like
00:20:14.600 because the who was like you know we need to do more research and stuff like that when that's like
00:20:19.040 they're sending you know fauci out to the bathhouses
00:20:21.580 in the field research he's coming back he's like all right so i don't have monkeypox and
00:20:27.720 believe me i tried i wouldn't be surprised if monkey uh monkeys fauci's new
00:20:32.760 wardrobe was a robe like hefner style he should have just started pulling that that out towards
00:20:37.580 the end of the the last bit coming out with a pipe and a and a robe and just really not carrying at
00:20:43.040 all yeah just laying pipe with his robe on no but yeah so ever of course you know i'm sure that
00:20:50.120 monkeypox is going to be like good for the let's oh we got another pandemic they're like probably
00:20:55.220 revved up because people are kind of over covid but i don't know that's what i was saying it's like
00:20:59.360 it just feels like naive to like think that everything isn't going to get used for some
00:21:05.140 political purposes like i always think it's funny when the parents do it there's like
00:21:08.880 there was this uh you know there's a lot of articles like this but there was a pretty famous
00:21:14.060 one that like went pretty viral like this mom that she's making her son wear a dress to school
00:21:19.700 to kind of fight gender norms right and then basically the son comes home and he's like oh i was
00:21:27.120 getting bullied and all this stuff and her she's like writing these articles being like can you
00:21:31.140 believe that these kids are bullying him and it's like yeah also you made your son wear a dress to
00:21:35.060 school so yeah probably you're like you're the issue it's kind of uh there's like a lot of things
00:21:41.020 like that where i i was kind of making fun of um there's this show in the dark it's about like a blind
00:21:48.400 detective you know what i mean and and there's like kind of a vibe of some of the press materials like
00:21:54.100 what like what's the problem like a blind person can't be uh you know what i mean a detective
00:21:59.100 or uh love island kind of puts like they'll every season they'll put like a few you know like
00:22:05.640 overweight people in it now just the girls right like the guys are all still like chiseled but the
00:22:09.700 girls they'll put a few like not hot girls in it and then they'll kind of get bullied on the
00:22:14.680 internet of people being like oh these girls aren't hot and then the vibe is like oh look at all these
00:22:19.360 bullies and it was like yeah but you put like a not hot person in a hot person show it's kind of
00:22:24.540 like putting a you like it's like putting like a 10 year old in the nba like everyone bets on the
00:22:29.680 everyone bets on like their team and then they replace the star center with like a 10 year old
00:22:34.780 who flubs and everyone loses their money and everyone's like you'll screw this kid and they're
00:22:38.260 like can you believe these people yelling at a kid and you're like no you're the one who did this
00:22:42.220 you you you have a hot people show and then someone some of the people on that show have like
00:22:46.520 committed suicide oh my god yeah but it's like they're sort of put you put them in this position
00:22:52.420 it's like a a show where the people like who's this helping on a show where the whole thing is
00:22:58.020 the guys pick which one they think is the hottest and then they put a girl that's not hot in the show
00:23:02.720 she doesn't get picked the internet bullies her and the show's attitude is like can you believe these
00:23:08.440 animals on the internet and it was like you kind of put people in these positions to fail
00:23:13.040 well it it happens a lot with the woke stuff you look at the sports illustrated swimsuit thing
00:23:18.500 and it's like you are setting this person up to be bullied because you know that's what's gonna
00:23:24.320 happen and yeah you're looking to get clicks like and by the way that girl was not you know that
00:23:29.280 like it's not like she was like morbid or whatever like she was fine like it's not like if your friend
00:23:34.560 was with that chick you wouldn't be like oh you'd be like all right whatever it's just like a woman
00:23:37.820 you know what i mean but the uh it is true it's on this thing they know they're like hey we'll put
00:23:43.720 this you know woman that's you know overweight or whatever on the cover and then everyone will get
00:23:49.680 mad about it but i guess that's the game for these people but obviously that's gonna happen so
00:23:55.280 everything everyone does exactly what you think they would do and then they kind of uh their business
00:24:00.740 model is almost like sacrificing a person but i guess she gets more famous or whatever right
00:24:05.240 something that's going on right now the world economic forum i imagine you're you're knee deep
00:24:12.120 into this i'd have to imagine um and now i don't know claus schwab he should be on the cover of play
00:24:19.140 girl i think that's a sex symbol they're apparently their motto that's where he started monkeypox probably
00:24:25.560 their motto this year is to regain trust so i've been seeing some there's i i don't know which country
00:24:31.800 but there's some youtuber who's like come on down to the world economic forum thousands of smart
00:24:37.380 people come here every year to make the world a better place there's presidents there's prime
00:24:42.640 ministers there's doctors there's all these people who want to make life better for you
00:24:46.880 meanwhile it's like eat the bugs don't own anything and it's like we've reached this level
00:24:52.380 of dystopian world where we now have social media influencers who think it's cool like let's promote
00:24:58.000 these billionaires and see how amazing they are but at the same time i'm against the billionaires and
00:25:03.140 i'm against the government and this apex or this nexus maybe yeah they got people they yeah they got
00:25:09.860 those people wrapped up right that is that is like one of the greatest sort of political or whatever
00:25:17.660 cultural movements ever is sort of convincing you know activism to like support essentially like
00:25:25.300 mainstream power or whatever it's pretty it's almost like brilliant to me the funny part about
00:25:30.400 the world economic forum is whenever you see these clips where they're they're having these like panel
00:25:34.580 discussions and they almost people the things that everyone will say was a conspiracy theories
00:25:40.320 they will kind of like openly be saying you know what i mean and they're talking very oh yes and
00:25:48.860 you know what there could be a future where everyone lives in a cage and we have their tv in
00:25:54.640 the cage and it's actually pretty good and the person's like no what size would this cage be
00:25:58.320 eight by ten could be and everyone's like wait why are they saying this like shouldn't they be
00:26:03.300 pretending at least pretending that they don't think this it like blows my mind the stuff that they say
00:26:08.320 publicly and then so some of this stuff people will be like all this conspiracy and you're like
00:26:12.780 they're well they're kind of saying it for real like i don't know if uh it's a conspiracy when
00:26:17.220 they're like saying it there is this one um minister from india who was openly saying how
00:26:23.760 he has known klaus schwab for so long and klaus schwab who's the guy who tells all the capitalists
00:26:29.060 of the world of the world what to do and then our reporter's just like wait what did you say
00:26:33.020 you said that he rules the capitalists of the world and he's like yeah but you know i've known
00:26:37.840 him for longer than anybody i've known him since before it was called the world economic forum so he
00:26:41.980 basically his point was that he's known klaus schwab for so long ruling the world that it was before
00:26:46.840 it was called the world economic forum and that's what he was bragging about not the part where he
00:26:51.200 says that he rules the capitalists of the world and tells them what to do this is how disconnected
00:26:55.680 these people are he was into him before he was cool exactly i mean there's there's the the obviously
00:27:02.180 the you know big money on kind of the resistance of that as well so there is kind of like a split you
00:27:09.080 know there's the george soros of the world and then there's the coke brothers of the world so there is
00:27:13.400 uh big money kind of going in flowing in different directions it's not it's not like completely
00:27:21.100 obvious that they're gonna get what they want but like i have i have uh i'm not necessarily
00:27:29.680 a pessimist when it comes to the future not necessarily no i don't think so i mean well i don't
00:27:39.380 have i don't have a crystal ball i'm not merlin but i do think that uh that i do i yeah merlin
00:27:46.300 i've been talking a lot about that all people who watch like global tv in the early 2000s no
00:27:52.880 i think merlin's just like the standard name for any magician the merlin and the ball he's always
00:27:58.860 holding a crystal ball yeah yeah yeah no i've been talking a lot about how girls just love whimsical
00:28:05.000 stuff you know like girls are into witchcraft and all that stuff but the biggest difference
00:28:09.600 is when you say like if you think about any guy that went home with a girl that this is how much
00:28:15.160 little we care if we any guy was with a girl and she was like oh i'm a witch i'm into witchcraft we'd
00:28:19.320 all be like crazy we can still have sex you know what i mean but if any girl went home with a guy
00:28:23.920 and he was like listen i'm a warlock she would have to be okay i'm really into the knights of
00:28:30.440 the round table and chris angel and you're you're out of there right i think you as a just a redo of
00:28:39.160 chris angels you wouldn't have to change anything if you just do every stunt that chris angel did
00:28:43.920 in the exact same way he would be hilarious i mean in his show you can do his stunts because
00:28:50.520 they're all camera tricks exactly his show was just absolutely insane like obviously there's
00:28:55.440 you know a lot of magicians and there is a like a super high level talent component to it you know
00:29:02.540 especially with the hand movements and card tricks a lot but chris angel's tricks on his show were just
00:29:07.120 like okay i'm here and it's like now look i'm on the roof he's just literally using just wires the
00:29:14.820 one where he levitates is just literally him pushing himself up on see-through like stands that
00:29:20.060 he's standing on and right transparent so he just he just pushes himself up on them and like oh my
00:29:25.340 god he's floating yeah yeah some of the the tricks are insane there was one where it's uh yeah he walks
00:29:31.380 across water and then it's like yeah there was glass in the water it's literally just like let's make a
00:29:37.860 show that's supposed to be magic and it's just special effects that we just won't overtly say what
00:29:42.760 it's supposed to be and then people street magic was better yeah i actually did i directed there's
00:29:49.040 this magician rob teska and he got some money to you know do some videos and stuff like that back
00:29:54.660 when i was in canada and i directed his uh magic special right it's kind of like a mini series right
00:30:00.780 um and so i i kind of was in the you know that world kind of like submersed in that world for a
00:30:07.760 couple weeks and i kind of found out how all the tricks worked and there was a lot of a lot of
00:30:12.200 gadgets right a lot of like you know string you can't see and this and that right but um the funny
00:30:18.060 part was filming that show the like stereotype that um like black people are they laugh more and stuff
00:30:24.560 like that it really was legitimately an issue we were filming it on the on the danforth beaches right
00:30:30.740 and so you would go and you'd get like 10 good reactions from black people and you'd literally have
00:30:36.440 to be like all right well we need you'd have to try to get because you don't just want to just you
00:30:41.380 just want you don't want to just just have like one type of person that is uh that you're doing the
00:30:46.200 tricks to right um and it really was hard to get like white people to get a good reaction because
00:30:52.900 they're all just like nah oh cool yeah whereas black people are enjoying themselves they're like yo
00:30:58.720 so that's like a trope that actually you know i was witnessing in real time where we're like all
00:31:05.760 right well we got 10 great reactions but it's like it's all from like a black dude okay now we
00:31:10.700 need to find like an asian dude or you know some girls whatever right we can't just have the same
00:31:15.940 thing but i don't know that always makes me laugh oh like it's like so true that stereotype is
00:31:21.500 family guy family guy clip but it was i watched it in real time i yeah it's better over and over again
00:31:29.420 yeah that's better that's better to be able to be excited about things than to you know what i mean
00:31:34.700 be like i feel like uh magic has suffered due to like everything the internet just gives you so much
00:31:44.780 more knowledge to be able to do it i remember when penn and teller first came out with their show
00:31:49.300 fool us there was it was like a huge deal that somebody could fool them and now the last time i
00:31:54.520 checked it out a couple months ago it's like three people per episode can fool them because people
00:31:58.540 have just been doing it their whole lives and it's no longer kid goes into magic shop in like 1970s
00:32:04.740 brooklyn and gets intrigued it's kid studies magic day in and day out for 30 years and gets insanely
00:32:11.800 good at it and is better than the people who are famous for it that's everything right now yeah i mean
00:32:17.620 yeah it's you know doing those hand movements over and over and over and over again but
00:32:22.360 i mean the same way that you know if someone from the nba right now played you know 20 years ago they
00:32:29.600 would just like demo to like a level that's unfathomable right and that's comedy and that's
00:32:34.340 everything you know the the level of uh work that you know people are putting into their you know youtube
00:32:40.640 and podcast businesses is just so much higher so i always kind of talk about how it's a really bad
00:32:48.340 era for like the tortured artist the you know the i'm depressed tortured artist like i don't know if
00:32:54.040 i could work today i'm kind of just getting drunk and it was like all right just you know like you'll
00:32:58.940 just disappear and no one will ever hear from you again because it's like you know the same way that
00:33:03.140 in professional sports the the you know the guy that smokes that isn't uh you don't see that guy too
00:33:09.260 often right the the the kind of uh you know person who's running like a you know internet business
00:33:15.380 that's like a mess and they're all over the place and you know depressed and it's like yeah at this
00:33:21.600 level that people are operating right now it's like you're just gonna get murked i don't is that
00:33:28.580 just as true in comedy though because i don't see too many like 20 years like doesn't it still take
00:33:33.960 at least like six or seven years before you're you have like 20 minutes or something let's say
00:33:40.640 and people are gonna pay to come see you or are there people coming up now that are like 22 that
00:33:45.960 are just really good i'm uh i i didn't say that they're really good when they're three years in
00:33:53.460 but the level that people are working is a lot yeah so you will see i mean there's good parts and
00:33:59.700 bad parts because you do see uh a lot of comics right now it's all about you know putting tiktok
00:34:04.700 clips up and stuff like that and kind of what you said that they're not good enough yet right so it's
00:34:09.280 like they're just putting garbage up and they're there's lots of people that are focusing on
00:34:13.880 putting tiktok clips up and you know their social media presence when really you're like you it's
00:34:19.600 the equivalent of having like a really great storefront and you know a great pos system and a
00:34:25.500 great you know employee base but your product's terrible right so there is that but there is also
00:34:32.040 you know people that are building their social media base then by the time they get good at stand up
00:34:37.220 they have a fan base to go do it to how is your podcast doing the boys cast i looked at the numbers
00:34:43.100 recently it's doing really well i think is it something that you're just doing maybe like a
00:34:48.960 hundred thousand an episode right now yeah or is it something you're just doing when you have time do
00:34:53.160 you want this to be the like are you just going to go back and like you because now you're running
00:34:57.280 three things you're running stand up your videos and your podcast are we going to go full bore with all
00:35:04.600 three of them is that something you would recommend people do when they're when they're in like this
00:35:08.480 sort of entertainment space i mean yeah that's like advice it's four years too late almost if you're
00:35:16.500 like hey maybe i should start a podcast i mean it's like yeah i mean yeah if you're a comedian the like
00:35:22.900 kind of base level is you know putting stand up clips up and having a podcast right that's kind of
00:35:29.380 the this that's like the standard model right now it's like as soon as you oh i would like that
00:35:34.460 comedian what's his podcast that's kind of where people go to watch you you know for an hour and a
00:35:38.780 half every week if they like you right um so it's kind of like your business card in some sense the
00:35:43.460 same way that your stand up is but i think that uh yeah i have those things and then there's the
00:35:48.360 business elements that you know i have my like merch company that i'm wearing right now so i'm sort of
00:35:52.140 an apparel designer as well so that's another thing that i have and i have a few other ideas in
00:35:56.600 touring so it's i i consider writing stand up in the city one thing and then you know touring and
00:36:01.700 other things so yeah there's kind of like five or six components of like what i'm doing that i'm
00:36:06.120 trying to always make them work to some degree in harmony but the podcast does i do put a lot of time
00:36:13.260 into the podcast so i would say that it probably occupies 10 to 12 hours a week all right let's move
00:36:19.900 behind the paywall for the subscribers give them some bonus content you can go to rebelnewsplus.com
00:36:24.620 speaking of podcasts eight dollars a month or eighty dollars for the whole year you'll get the extra
00:36:29.960 segments with ryan long okay one last question before we go to the paywall yes okay um okay so
00:36:38.060 do you know how um like uh if you're like have monkey pox you have like an accent you know there's
00:36:45.740 like the gay accent yes ryan i do right you know i'm talking about right okay people have an accent
00:36:52.900 what is this news to you what is this news to you that gay guys sort of talk a certain way oh no okay
00:36:59.920 well how is that related to monkey pox okay well just because okay so do you think that gay people
00:37:06.660 that speak different languages like for example chinese have a gay accent like or is that just
00:37:12.660 is that just an english thing i i would say it's just an english thing and if we look at something
00:37:17.040 specifically like chinese there's too much honor and integrity to denigrate your pronunciation of
00:37:23.380 things or to change them whatsoever for anybody of any sexuality you want to be even if so you can't
00:37:31.160 tell the difference so you think in those countries like if you see a chinese guy you can't like when you
00:37:36.100 see a gay guy here you can kind of tell right like you can't tell i like how you make sure this is
00:37:40.680 before the paywall is this revenge for the technical difficulties well you can't tell if a
00:37:47.160 guy okay you can't tell by a guy's accent if he likes big boobs or small boobs right but you can tell
00:37:54.060 if he likes boobs at all that's like a fact you can generally tell not always but if someone has that
00:38:01.120 accent it's pretty good high percentage that they're gay so in china or other countries where they don't
00:38:06.020 speak english can you not tell where you go hey this guy speaks and because i i don't know that's a
00:38:12.780 good it's a good question right it's a great question it's a video i think is there like a
00:38:17.280 a pie chart where this is okay well anyways that's a question comment below i think ryan apart from
00:38:25.240 gay accents and the world economic forum and your advice for comedians what's it the what's i'm gonna
00:38:33.280 have to ask you then if this is stale this advice what's the new thing that we should be striving
00:38:37.980 towards what should i be doing now to stay ahead of the curve in stand-up comedy in entertainment i
00:38:44.860 mean sure it's stand-up comedy but i'm not one of these people who thinks that i can just become a
00:38:48.840 comedian well i mean yeah you guys got a a good business it's working really well but i think that
00:38:56.180 the like the main thing is just treating it like a business like at the end of the day
00:39:03.440 like i said it's it's very difficult to be like oh you know i'll kind of just half-ass do this when
00:39:09.600 creativity hits it hits it's like those yeah to me that era is like silly it's like all of the people
00:39:16.360 that are you know you know uh rising the fastest and growing followings and making the biggest dents
00:39:21.800 and culture and you know developing a fan base that likes you know what they do uh are all working
00:39:28.440 really hard and operating you know this like it's a a business and then so then you need to find time
00:39:34.840 to be able to balance those two things where you're like how do i separate when i'm actually trying to
00:39:39.960 be creative and trying to make good things and when i'm trying to you know run a business and i think
00:39:44.920 that's like the hardest part but it's also the people who don't do that fall behind i think the
00:39:50.940 when i hear you talk about the the person who can't uh half-ass it it makes me think the equivalent
00:39:56.260 in this is there's all these movies out there where it'll be a young girl who works for like an online
00:40:02.240 magazine and she gets put on assignment and she's got three weeks to cover this assignment and they
00:40:07.420 fly her out to write one story this job does not exist there's nowhere in the country where you get
00:40:12.900 to write one story every three weeks for like fifty thousand dollars a year all expenses paid
00:40:19.480 there was this um there's a catfishing movie that's about that uh i won't say the comedian's
00:40:24.740 name i just didn't think it was that great of a movie cut based on that concept where this girl
00:40:28.620 flies across the country to cover a story about catfishing and her editor in this giant building
00:40:33.580 is just like all right but if you don't do this story in the next three weeks you're fired young
00:40:37.520 lady like this is all the annandelvy the annandelvy uh netflix movie was about that as well it was uh
00:40:43.400 the christmas movie with what's her face from canada and uh i don't want to say the comedian's
00:40:48.120 name i know that's bad when we say comedian's names that uh and say that i don't like it so i won't
00:40:53.200 but um i just think that's the probably the equivalent of the journalism world where it's like
00:41:00.040 just you can do whatever you want and you'll be you'll just be the successful writer for
00:41:03.960 teenbeat.net or something like that yeah yeah no i know so it is uh it's like on some ways
00:41:11.480 unfortunate but yeah you need to figure out a way that you're like how do i make things that i think
00:41:17.360 are good but also uh have a model that's sustainable like you can't just be you know making so what you
00:41:25.700 even if you're like oh let me work like right now sometimes i'm just like you know it'd be cool to
00:41:31.280 put tons of time into making these kind of cool short films but it's like why like why would i do
00:41:38.060 that it just doesn't make any sense so i think that but then sometimes you've got to do those
00:41:42.200 things just to sort of flex and just to you know remind yourself like what you're doing you know
00:41:49.340 there's a lot of people that started making comedy and now they're you know they spend all their
00:41:53.540 time dancing on tiktok to try to get an audience and it's like yeah you got to find the balance with
00:41:58.540 everything right yeah it's um remember they used to say one for them one for me i think yeah the
00:42:06.080 the movie industry yeah and i think there's a version of that and everything for sure and i'm
00:42:12.480 thinking that you're the first choice for the bam margera biopic we take oh man i hope so that would
00:42:18.820 be amazing you're right i've never even thought of that if they make a biopic maybe i could be him
00:42:22.540 but yeah everyone always says that to me and yeah i i get it so much and it's like i don't know if i
00:42:29.340 because it's like face structure and stuff's not that much and he's like a bit a lot bigger than me
00:42:33.740 in a lot of ways and i'm kind of like taller and skinnier but i think maybe our vibe is the same or
00:42:38.680 something maybe that's what people think no i think it's the facial like the core of your face
00:42:43.120 if you were to grab a skateboard and there's no context for how tall you are and it was bam margera when
00:42:47.900 he was 24 you could just like pass off as him if we were just taking a photo in his clothes right
00:42:54.580 yeah sometimes i see it i do that for me please yeah he just got he just got so fat that maybe
00:42:59.640 people forget bam rules though yeah i've i'd refuse to watch jackass in the theaters because they
00:43:06.040 wouldn't let him be in it it's like they won't let him be in it because he's drinking too much but
00:43:11.120 what was the first 20 years of jackass what was right 15 i guess we're too old for that now
00:43:16.840 um yeah there is something it's almost like it is funny the like hey the you gotta be hey come
00:43:25.080 on you gotta be sober if you're gonna you know be punching us in the face and stuff like that right
00:43:29.100 but too far i mean i do get it because they you know there's more to it they have all these like
00:43:35.100 relationships and it's not just that it's like they feel like he's uh you know not respecting them
00:43:41.760 probably in some ways and they have these tumultuous you know it's the the brother that
00:43:46.900 uh you know kind of gets drunk and steals from your mom it's like how many times you let that
00:43:51.720 happen i think that they probably see it to some degree like that as opposed to like oh it's not
00:43:55.820 going to be good if he's drinking or maybe back on cameo though are you on cameo no they messaged
00:44:03.000 me once a month though do they that's good oh yeah you should do it you should spend your
00:44:07.460 time at midnight and beyond just responding to random strangers yeah that's why i don't do it
00:44:13.460 i just i don't want that in my schedule i don't want no i really i don't like you know i you have to
00:44:19.280 kind of guard your time a little bit right and i don't want to i know that i it would bother me to
00:44:24.580 even if it was every week you know and i think you're supposed to do them when they come in at least
00:44:29.340 within 24 hours or 48 hours i just think it would bother me to wake up and have not like not be able
00:44:36.080 to plan tomorrow and i know that you can be like oh it's just four minutes but it's like it's not
00:44:40.880 nothing's just four minutes it's brain space and if you're somewhere where you can't do it you got to
00:44:46.360 go you know i had a it's got alex stein in the podcast you know yeah the guy who's uh going to city
00:44:52.440 halls and stuff yeah yeah he's doing these wild videos he goes to city halls and which is like a
00:44:57.240 genre now of people yeah the people are just going all these city halls and like messing with
00:45:02.380 them it's like there's gonna be a point and i think they've had where it's like two of them
00:45:05.920 there's it's getting to the point where it's like these city halls have like eight people and like
00:45:09.080 five of them are messing with them for like youtube videos right but he he does cameos and he was like
00:45:14.660 at our podcast he's like oh i gotta go in the hallway and do a cameo and he's like after we finished
00:45:19.500 he like went to the bathroom and did these cameos and it's like i just don't want to be doing that
00:45:23.160 it's just not going to be part of my business model unless i think that unless i was gonna like
00:45:29.080 if i was gonna do it i would like really go hard and be like okay this is a four hours once a week
00:45:35.380 and i'm taking it seriously and blah blah blah but just to sort of like passively do it i think would
00:45:39.520 bother me you're really going to turn into a real billy baldwin that way i think maybe one gilbert
00:45:44.840 godfrey apparently was making like millions a year he did one for somebody at our company for
00:45:50.600 somebody's birthday and it was amazing it was truly spectacular right so that's an example of
00:45:55.520 someone that i'm like i get what he's doing andy dick had one that was good too that we saw
00:46:00.280 where yeah some people are making i actually used cameo i hired people to do cameos to promote my
00:46:05.600 stand-up special i got rachel dolezal and the tinder swindler what was the tinder swindler
00:46:12.060 is this the guy there's this dude that uh it's a big netflix uh series but he was like
00:46:18.160 swindling girls out of money that he met on tinder uh gilbert godfrey i i saw recently before
00:46:24.180 he died i was doing this uh festival skank fest and yeah we talked about that the last time
00:46:28.720 yeah in houston yeah we talked about gilbert godfrey on the phone we did oh okay cool but
00:46:35.160 yeah before he died mm-hmm yeah yeah well he was uh it was funny that he was he was very
00:46:41.760 you know kind of like old and frail and then the minute he got on stage he killed which was very cool
00:46:46.320 it's a very aussie osborne i imagine it was very it was very like that yeah but there is uh yeah
00:46:53.760 there's a lot of those kind of people that are definitely making a career of cameo but my special
00:46:58.780 is called uh white immigrant so rachel dolezal was the the white woman that said she's black
00:47:04.700 and i got her to do a special like hey you know uh congrats on being an immigrant on your special day
00:47:10.920 for immigrating and like all this sort of stuff and getting your green car and it's so funny getting
00:47:16.480 the the for my special white immigrant getting the like white woman who says she's black the trans
00:47:21.740 like famous transracial woman what i liked about that special is how quickly it seemed like you were
00:47:28.140 like mid material you know if that makes sense i'm sure i don't know all the uh i don't know all
00:47:33.600 the terms yet but right off the bat it goes right into everything i felt like and i really like that
00:47:38.560 about it like it like it started very quick i think my style is very kind of think of my style a little
00:47:44.720 bit like kind of upbeat punk music and that is yeah it's it's like quick right like i'm i try to
00:47:50.880 i think i do utilize almost like those old principles of like a joke every seven seconds and it's
00:47:57.400 i kind of every everything is very like if you actually like parse it out every joke i do is
00:48:04.100 kind of under 45 seconds and sometimes you know you put them together but they are all all all of
00:48:09.740 my jokes are kind of like stories little stories that take under a minute to tell see we're learning
00:48:15.420 i should be taking notes for when i inevitably never do stand up i used to live across the street
00:48:20.540 from that oshawa yuck yucks and i've told myself for a year i'd go in on open mic night and never did
00:48:26.880 and now here i am yeah i i never did that one oh actually maybe i actually maybe i did but it's
00:48:32.220 fairly new i used to do yuck yucks um i'm sure that now if i wanted to play them i could but their uh
00:48:39.900 their their business model isn't really to bring in like american headliners it's kind of like
00:48:44.180 you know they just their idea i mean mark breslin once said that he was like you know i could put a
00:48:49.060 dead guy's name on the sign and it doesn't make a difference so you know canadian clubs are way more
00:48:53.980 based on like american clubs the business model is like hey we're gonna bring a comedian in he's
00:49:00.720 gonna bring his fans to fill up our restaurant twice a night right and he'll take a big percentage
00:49:04.840 of the door where their model is like you're gonna come to see a comedian it doesn't really matter who
00:49:09.380 right but the yuck yucks i've always there it's like it's very cool what he's done but he also one of
00:49:17.020 the they had uh essentially this thing where if you played yuck yucks you're not allowed to play the
00:49:22.340 other clubs and me and my friends all were like the problem is if you do yuck yucks and other spots
00:49:29.380 you couldn't get enough spots whereas we were doing i think a lot of people got a got a lot worse
00:49:34.660 because they were you know doing comedy three four or five nights a week whereas me and my friends
00:49:38.720 were doing the corner comedy club like two to five uh spots a night right so i was you know especially
00:49:44.760 with other places i was doing 15 20 a night when a lot of comedians were doing you know three to
00:49:49.560 eight or whatever especially a lot of the yuck yucks comics so i think there's a reason why um
00:49:54.580 three or four of the people i would say if i look at who's doing the best uh you know there's this guy
00:50:02.360 che durena who's doing really well neiman nazira like i some of my friends uh they were all in this
00:50:08.200 little pocket of comedians that did the corner comedy club all night i think a lot of them are doing
00:50:12.120 really well because it was um a good place to grow as a comedian yeah i i'm doing something i don't
00:50:20.120 want to give it away soon where i'm going to be doing one of these shows in a comedy club hopefully
00:50:24.040 it becomes something else but uh maybe when when you're back i'll try to try to do something like
00:50:29.480 that with you last thing before you go um have you seen the new the kids in the hall reboot
00:50:35.240 no i haven't seen it i'll tell you it's not good no it's better than i thought it was gonna be oh
00:50:42.420 it's okay yeah they went immediately into naked full frontal frontal nudity of a 60 of them
00:50:49.760 and i was like they knew that they had to hook people in somehow and episode one i think the very
00:50:56.760 first skit is them full penis out so it's good that's cool yeah i'm happily surprised and happy to
00:51:04.560 report i always thought scott thompson was kind of around and he would do shows like kind of our
00:51:09.380 shows like uh sometimes and i always thought he was like nice guy and super funny so that's cool
00:51:14.540 that that's a good show i just watched ricky gervais especially too i know that you know he talked
00:51:19.260 about the trans stuff so people are uh getting mad or whatever but i thought uh i think he's i think
00:51:25.060 he's i know that he's obviously like one of the most famous people in the world but some people
00:51:28.820 will be like oh yeah but he's you know he's okay at comedy because he started comedy at like 50 or 45 or
00:51:34.440 whatever it is but i think he's funnier than anyone i think his special is really good i think at this
00:51:39.220 point if the there's a twitter moment saying people are mad at the person's trans jokes and it's
00:51:45.440 probably a good special i said that in my special i said that you have to do trans jokes is the only
00:51:50.120 way to get pressed now i said that but the uh i think that ricky gervais what i was thinking about
00:51:55.560 when i was watching it a couple nights ago is that he's the best in the world i think he's one of
00:52:00.920 the best in the world at doing uh misdirections where he he uh he he uh when you're listening to
00:52:13.740 it you do believe his premise so he always actually does fish you in in the sense there's a lot of
00:52:19.820 comics they start saying something and i'm like oh i know you're just gonna flip this like you know
00:52:23.840 what i mean but then he never he never goes too far the other way where you disagree with his point
00:52:29.980 like a lot of people would do a misdirection uh where they might be like you know i think girls
00:52:35.800 are stronger than men and then but actually then they sort of flip it and obviously but they during
00:52:41.260 that moment where you said i think girls are stronger than men you're kind of like what and
00:52:44.780 then you start thinking and it's like you think that and then they're like oh i was just kidding
00:52:48.060 and you're like i think the reason what makes his good is his first part is plausible so it doesn't
00:52:54.520 it doesn't make you think something weird like what why is he saying that like it's smooth
00:52:58.740 his original premise is something that he's going to flip but it also is the perfect amount
00:53:04.200 that you didn't start your mind didn't start to wander and i think he's better than that when
00:53:09.300 anyone else i mean even just like on one little joke that it was like just a nothing joke but he
00:53:14.400 said um you know i get it for gay people and minorities you're you know five percent of the
00:53:21.600 population or five you know ten percent of the population so sometimes it feels like you're this
00:53:25.560 small group that's going against the way bigger groups and you know for me i'm a straight uh white
00:53:32.220 you know multi-millionaire and uh there's only one percent of us so you know you don't hear me
00:53:37.500 complaining and it's like yeah that's a good example of that yeah because when he said because
00:53:42.920 he says the first part and then he goes and i'm a straight white multi-millionaire like that in
00:53:48.140 itself was like a sentence that didn't need like you're not like they didn't need to be misdirected so
00:53:53.580 he actually tells you something that was like uh a through line that doesn't leave people wandering
00:53:58.860 and then he flips you whereas most people say something that i'm i generally i'm like oh he's
00:54:04.180 gonna flip this like i generally can see that so i think that's what i i took away from that special
00:54:09.160 a little bit it was like man he's good at that all right uh comedy lessons from ryan long ryan long
00:54:15.800 comedy i think it wasn't lessons for me that was just that was just what i liked that's what i
00:54:21.520 thought comedians and talk show hosts on news channels it's life lessons um i think it says
