Joey gets booed at his show in San Diego and is booed by a bunch of other people. We talk about cell phone service in general and some of the crazy things Sprint is doing with their service. Then we talk about the UFC in Canada and what it's like to be a Canadian in the big city of Montreal, Canada. We also talk about how much money you should be spending on cell phone services and why it's a good thing you don't have to pay for it. We finish the episode with some listener questions and some listener mail in the form of questions and comments. Thanks to everyone for all the support, stay tuned for the next show in Montreal!

00:01:30.000Even in November, in Montreal, with Duncan Trussell, we are going to be there and eventually see Georges St-Pierre going to fight Carlos Condit.
00:03:05.000The way Ting works is you want to cancel, just fucking cancel.
00:03:08.000If you don't use all your minutes, like say if you have a higher plan with more minutes and you don't use it, they automatically bump you down to the next plan and your next bill and save you money.
00:03:20.000Like, it is a very, very fair and ethical company.
00:03:23.000And they work off this Sprint backbone.
00:03:26.000So they have excellent cell phone service.
00:08:57.000There's not an SSRI. But it has a very similar effect.
00:09:00.000In fact, a lot of people who are taking antidepressants, which essentially raise your brain's output of serotonin, the doctors tell you not to take 5-HTP as well.
00:09:10.000They tell you that it's too much of it.
00:09:12.000You'll literally develop too much serotonin.
00:09:14.000What that says to me, I'm not a doctor, but it says to me is that you should be...
00:12:52.000I think that like for me personally, my funny stemmed from a lot of awkward situations where I was like, how the fuck am I going to get out of this?
00:12:58.000And then like I said something and they laughed and then I fucking bolted.
00:13:02.000So I don't know about you, but that really helped me in my earlier years of like, hey, it's good to have a sense of humor, you know?
00:13:08.000And then as you become a comic, then you realize there's other guys like that, you know?
00:13:11.000And then like, you know, we kind of all gelled together.
00:13:13.000And we also have like a Perspective on things that a lot of other people don't like a lot of people are looking for like happiness and fulfillment and closure Yeah I think as a comic you kind of like roll with the way things are and just see the humor in it you know?
00:13:25.000Yeah I also at this point I feel like I have this massive obligation to continue to put out You know, when you have fans and you really appreciate them and they tell you, oh my god, we have the best time.
00:13:52.000Well, how cool is it when a guy comes up to you and says, like, dude, I love this joke or like you know you didn't do that joke that I love and like it's like joke that you like and you're like oh man there is a reason to do this yeah somebody somebody's listening you know I like that do you still love stand up the art form do you still like watching it well you know we I think we went to this last time it's like I don't consider myself an artist I mean I consider pretty much everybody else I know an artist to some degree but I have very few tools in my toolbox and one of them is midget and dick jokes and I That tool
00:15:28.000I mean, it's like, you know, first of all, like, you know, it's kind of a great I don't know how you roll with a very cool crowd of excellent fans.
00:15:56.000Really, you call your own shots, and I just look up to you, man.
00:15:59.000I mean, I'd bow to you, but I'd probably end up blowing you.
00:20:31.000There's got to be like no cell phone service there.
00:20:33.000Yeah, if you wanted, if you were like some dude who could survive and you were down with trying to live in the woods, you could escape to Australia and they wouldn't even go looking for you.
00:24:39.000You know, the scariest thing I saw was when I was driving around, like I was in a cab, And cabs, by the way, were incredibly hard to get at that point.
00:24:47.000But there was like a candle in a window of a project.
00:24:50.000And I'm like, this is what it's going to look like after a nuclear winter.
00:24:53.000Just like one holdout guy in a project somewhere like Charlton Heston in the Omega Man kind of thing.
00:25:25.000We never, we never, I don't think even the government, local, whatever, state thought like, there's going to be a gas problem, you know, and nobody was ready, so.
00:25:43.000I mean, the whole idea of basically doing shows...
00:25:48.000In New York, the top of the line guys who pull the most pwn are the hedge fund guys, the club DJ, the male model who's bi or whatever...
00:25:59.000But that week, it was all like renaissance fair skills, like candle maker, blacksmith, you know, any guy who could hook a bike up to a light, you know, he would get like, you know...
00:27:11.000I could see myself going to my ex-girlfriend's house and just hanging out because she would have all the candles in the world and canned soup.
00:27:19.000The amount of candles a girl has is directly proportionate to exactly how long she will cry after you have sex with her.
00:27:27.000But yeah, girls were prepped a little bit harder than dudes.
00:29:28.000The second part is just like your Hitler cat with the fucking dynamite strapped to his chest.
00:29:32.000I don't know what you're trying to do there.
00:29:34.000And a lot of people were just basically milling around a lot of fires on the street, like people making fires and cooking out on the street, which I think they should allow them to do.
00:30:58.000Yeah, she had cell phone service and she was just posting these awesome videos of her in the hurricane, like rain hitting her while she's wearing no clothes.
00:31:05.000She's like, oh, it's so rainy outside.
00:35:35.000I was not jerking off to you, but I was semi-turgent while you were on the screen, but it was a lot of hard work there.
00:35:42.000It's kind of a funny show because you have us and we're sitting on the couch and the couch will grow or shrink depending on where the genitals are in the scene.
00:36:01.000You, of course, knowing porn so well, you brought up something that a lot of guys have problems with, which is the male star not being able to get wood.
00:37:14.000But in the porn world, back especially in the 70s and 80s, like, you know, Blow back then was like considered, I don't know, you said Adderall.
00:37:20.000It was kind of the Adderall of our, you know, of our time.
00:40:25.000Yeah, not even hemp, like the actual plant itself, if you could juice it, if you juice hemp, it's really good for you.
00:40:33.000If you were like, let's say like a doomsday prepping question here, if you were like in a place where there was only like pot plants to eat, you could eat them?
00:43:40.000Especially, the other problem is that the economy's down.
00:43:43.000And when the economy's down, It's hard to tell people, you know, we're going to change laws and put people out of work who are law enforcement officers.
00:43:54.000I mean, if you all of a sudden made marijuana completely legal and you didn't need DEA agents to chase after weed, you'd have a lot of fucking unemployed people.
00:44:51.000So in California, when you see these big places, those are the ones that get shut down because they're making X amount of millions of dollars a year selling pot.
00:44:59.000Well, you're not supposed to be doing that.
00:45:00.000When you do do that, I think the only way to do it is you have to give all the money back to the community or you make it...
00:45:08.000Make it so that all the money goes to charities or funds.
00:45:13.000There's some sort of a workaround where you get a fair wage for working there and everyone, including the owner, would get a fair wage and then the money has to get distributed.
00:48:50.000Well, that's the whole thing about like this whole now, like with rich people, you know, it's like, You know, how much money do the rich people need?
00:48:56.000I guess now, like, the ultimate perk is a private jet, but back then it would have been, like, a car, you know?
00:49:04.000You look at some of these hedge fund guys, where they were talking about, there was one guy whose wife got some of the bailout money, because the bailout money, a lot of it was in the form of loans, and this guy was worth, who knows how many hundreds of millions of dollars,
00:49:19.000but they showed his house, They like zoomed in on his house in the Hamptons and it's just fucking insanity.
00:50:25.000We're all so old now and we've all been through the ringer to some degree and Norton is just incredibly fearlessly funny and Artie is naturally probably one of the best comics I've ever seen in my life.
00:50:37.000It's just fun to hang with these guys because now we're at that age where it's just fun to be around guys that you know and you can just fucking have fun.
00:51:15.000It's so dry and funny and well thought out.
00:51:19.000I know this turns into a big stroke fest about comedy, but if you're anywhere where Greg is touring, go see him because he really is a great comic.
00:52:53.000I think that they overdid it because every other place, like, you know, there's the Hukilao and the, you know, the place in Chicopee, like Chinese restaurants, we're doing shows, that, like, the crowds just, I guess, got babied or, like, you know, spoiled.
00:53:07.000And they're like, there's plenty of comedy out here.
00:53:52.000There was so much good comedy in that one place.
00:53:56.000I would say it was one of the rare instances where there was more good comedy than there was bad comedy.
00:54:01.000The thing that always got me about the Boston guys compared to the New York guys, I hope I didn't say this the last time I was on your show, but they came to New York, you guys all eventually came to New York, And you guys were ready to headline almost immediately.
00:54:12.000Whereas the New York guys, we were years away from headlining.
00:54:15.000We were just trying to work the weekends.
00:54:17.000It was a slower process because there was just too much, I guess, open mic, too many comics and not enough stage time.
00:54:26.000So you really had to fight for the stage time.
00:54:28.000But you guys definitely knew who you were.
00:54:39.000Well, you know what it was is that Boston guys had a chance to work long sets.
00:54:43.000We would work for like the Comedy Connection had a bunch of gigs and Barry Katz had a bunch of gigs.
00:54:50.000All these different people had gigs and they were all over the place and you would do 45 minutes.
00:54:54.000You can do an hour here, half hour here, 45 minutes here.
00:54:57.000So we weren't just doing the short sets in town.
00:55:00.000When I went to New York and I saw that everybody would take a cab, And go from one crowd to another crowd, doing seven minutes here and seven minutes there.
00:55:26.000They paid like $50 or something, right?
00:55:28.000Well, like Governors, which is on Long Island, that's kind of where I kind of started out.
00:55:32.000I just recently was there, and the guys who run Governors now are so pro-comedy, so pro-like, supporting comedy, bringing up new talent and all that kind of stuff.
00:55:41.000And it's really great to see, because for a long time, the outlying clubs were really just like Jersey, the island, Connecticut.
00:55:48.000You know, you just went there for money.
00:55:50.000And now it's like, this is like a good place to work out.
00:55:52.000Well, Governors was always really good.
00:55:54.000Yeah, Governors was a top-of-line club.
00:56:44.000And, um, they're great, and, you know, it's hard on the crowd, I think, just to some degree, because, you know, there's a lot of, like, expenses of parking and food and all that kind of stuff, but at the end of the day, it's kind of cool that you get to see, like, we just worked with Amy Schumer.
00:57:35.000And Louis, who's probably one of the best comics ever, he goes down there and does sets and rock and, you know, Chappelle when he's in town.
00:57:41.000And I guess there's other guys like Aziz and things like that.
00:57:44.000So you do get to see like some celebrity comics there.
00:57:47.000But the majority of the guys working there are like pretty hardcore headlining, you know, top of the line comedy.
00:57:53.000And the people who run it are, you know, they're for comedy.
00:57:57.000Promoter is like, let's turn this into a website or a cartoon or something like that.
00:58:03.000Well, they must feel so fortunate when that does happen, when you get a place where a bunch of great comics like Louis and Chris Rock and all these different guys, and you show up and decide to do sets there on a regular basis.
00:58:14.000Oh, I bomb there, I'd say, every other time.
00:58:15.000But for the other guys, it is a great experience.
00:59:36.000But he also was doing some thoughts, some things that he just wanted to talk about.
00:59:40.000And as a fan of comedy, because I wasn't a comic, I wasn't thinking, I'm going on...
00:59:45.000I was like, this is what I love watching when a guy's just thinking it out and he doesn't know where it's going to go.
00:59:50.000And I think that's kind of cool and exciting.
00:59:52.000But for the fan, especially people who've seen comedy on TV or they know one person and then they come and see these unknown people, I always feel like they're disappointed.
01:00:03.000And I used to get really angry at them, but now I just feel sorry for them.
01:00:07.000It's like, wouldn't it be cool if he got to see The Stones?
01:00:09.000Not to equate what we do to The Stones.
01:00:12.000But like them working on Start Me Up, I think that would be cool.
01:00:15.000Well this is the only, stand-up comedy is the only art form where you really need an audience.
01:00:22.000They're involved in the creation process because as they laugh, things evolve and change.
01:00:27.000And as you feel them enjoying the bit, it's really hard for anybody who has never done stand-up to describe that feeling when something's killing.
01:00:35.000Like you know the timing, you feel where to jump in, you feel where to let things sit.
01:00:41.000And you really need an audience to do that.
01:01:10.000They like comedy and they see the funny and sadness in life.
01:01:16.000But I think the majority of young audiences who've never failed at anything It's kind of weird when you do a joke and there's not a win or a happy ending at the end.
01:01:33.000Because I think people are more aware of what it actually is now.
01:01:37.000Whereas before, someone would say something shocking and fucked up, and people would go with it and go, oh, he's an edgy comedian.
01:01:42.000And now, you know, the majority of people are aware, oh, no, that's just a fucked up guy, and he's like pushing your buttons by saying something shocking.
01:01:50.000But there's no real thought behind it.
01:01:53.000He's not really trying to say anything.
01:01:55.000He's just trying to make something shocking, make it work, use it as a tool to get a reaction from the crowd.
01:02:55.000It's so connected to him that, you know, I feel that his stuff, you know, it's so personal that, like, somehow they relate to it in a whole different way that I can't even understand, you know?
01:03:06.000Yeah, well, he develops, like, different parts of his actual real life.
01:04:10.000Heffron did a whole set to candlelight once.
01:04:12.000That would be a cool CD. Yeah, John Heffron said he was on stage, and the power went off, and it was pretty clear it wasn't coming back on, so he just did the whole set to candlelight.
01:05:19.000I mean, like, just like, you know, you forget that, like, in the 80s, like, there's a crossover between, like, the 70s people and then the 80s.
01:05:26.000And Ginger and Christy Canyon, I think, are the uber babes of the 80s.
01:05:42.000But I just did their radio show on Playboy Radio, and it's really cool, like, because they're out there, you know, they're still talking the talk, and they're sexy.
01:06:18.000I think that a lot of those girls, like, you know, it was the hair bands of the 80s, and then I'm sure a lot of movie star kind of guys, you know, all that kind of stuff.
01:06:26.000They're probably tired of dick by now.
01:07:26.000Do you have a specific category that you automatically go to?
01:07:30.000I don't know if we talked about it last time, but like I love amateur casting, you know, any era, but I love it from the 80s and 90s more than now, even though there's like four or five different genres for casting.
01:07:42.000But Pierre Woodman, who's a French dude, he used to do this thing called private casting, and I love his stuff.
01:07:48.000And, you know, if he was in America, like, I would have him on in a second, even though, like, I don't think I could show any of his stuff.
01:07:55.000But I like the retro stuff now a lot more than I used to ever like it.
01:07:59.000And I guess now that's like the new kink for me, you know?
01:08:02.000People love that amateur shit like where they come in for it because it's like this is the first time ever and they're awkward as opposed to like the girl who you lift up her skirt.
01:09:08.000But I would have to say that now with shaving, a lot of the younger girls are letting it grow out a bit because it's cool, and I think they realize that, like, fuck, what am I doing this for?
01:12:42.000I don't really like the club, but that was definitely one of those clubs where you're like, hey, you can walk to it.
01:12:48.000Oh, the place across the street from the store?
01:12:50.000Yeah, you go play the comedy store, you want to do something, so you're like, hey, you go over to the body shop.
01:12:54.000I went there one or two times, and I would say that You know, the girls were really hot, but I feel like a lot of them were not, like, pros.
01:13:00.000A lot of them were just, like, party girls who wanted to make some coin.
01:14:11.000Some guy just told me in Columbus, we were there, and he said there's these things called soapies where you lay down and they put soap all over you and then they get completely naked and they just rub your body with their body.
01:14:25.000Like they just lay on you and squish around and stuff like that.
01:17:04.000It's like there's nowhere for it to go.
01:17:06.000That's why when you're stuck on the tarmac for like five hours and you realize this plane is built only for the air, that the toilets start backing up and there's no air and you feel trapped.
01:17:17.000I get incredibly claustrophobic on the plane.
01:17:20.000So, you know, once that door shuts, I'm like, fuck, dude.
01:17:23.000Now I'm in this tube now for the next six, seven hours.
01:17:26.000Well, it's a part of our job to be on planes on a regular basis.
01:17:30.000But back in the old days, like when it was all like just torn like road, like driving cars, you and another guy, that must have, you know, I've done like a lot of that.
01:17:38.000And there is like, Even though it takes a while, there was some fun to that.
01:19:02.000You know, Joey's always got something going on.
01:19:04.000Yeah, well, that's the cool thing about it, man.
01:19:06.000It's like, you know, the good thing about comedy is that, like, you know, every day is a new day, you know, and, like, you can, you know, it's really up to you to make it happen, and everybody's like, if I only knew the right guy and if somebody read the screenplay, it's like, yeah, but that's not about comedy.
01:19:21.000Comedy's about, like, getting funnier and just getting out there, really.
01:19:30.000It's like, right now you're doing more for your career going on doing seven minutes than this douchebag is going to do for you ever.
01:19:36.000At the end of the day, it all becomes about that engine.
01:19:38.000The engine that propels your life is your work, your comedy that you create.
01:19:43.000And everybody is wrapped up on getting auditions and getting a show and getting a series and getting all these things, which ultimately are not the best thing for your stand-up.
01:20:38.000That's the least thing I could give a shit about.
01:20:41.000I'm in my late 40s now, and I'm like...
01:20:43.000Dude, I could give a shit if I ever get on the Big Bang Theory or any of that stuff.
01:20:47.000I know guys are like, if only I could get on there.
01:20:50.000And I'm like, you know, I'd rather be able to say what I want to say when I want to say it, where I want to say it, than for low money, than be on a sitcom where I walk out and it's like, watch out, fellas, it's time for break.
01:21:01.000You know, like some line that has been overwritten by a bunch of guys I don't know sitting in the writer's room, you know?
01:21:22.000And then he would say the funny line, and I'd be like...
01:21:24.000We were, I think a lot of comics sort of led in that direction in the 80s, when you saw Roseanne and Tim Allen and these guys go to have series, and Seinfeld and these series make millions and millions of dollars...
01:23:24.000That's why I would say that Comics who do sitcoms, and I know a lot of them who did sitcoms, when they come back to the comedy, they're always like, you know, I'm a little rusty.
01:23:44.000Occasionally he goes on and does these shows with Ray Romano, but once he started acting, he just really doesn't have the time for it anymore.
01:31:41.000Like, you couldn't have a full hard-on.
01:31:43.000So, scene after scene would be this girl who's, like, pretending to be in total moaning ecstasy, spreading her pussy apart, and the dude would, like, lay his dick on her like a drowning victim.
01:34:10.000Like, you couldn't really see what was going on.
01:34:12.000Like, what looks good and what feels good is two different things sometimes.
01:34:16.000And so sometimes, like, someone has to, like, turn sideways, and they're having sex in, like, an angle, like a sideways angle, just so they could show you the genitals better.
01:34:45.000And that the old porn was like to pay the bills.
01:34:47.000And today, like you have a lot of guys who are just like everything and they do porn, you know, like they're, you know, personal trainers, they're all these different things.
01:35:04.000Something happens, I think, to a lot of people when they first come to L.A. where they have this idea that they're going to make it in show business, they're going to be an actor, and then they get out here and they see what a process it is.
01:35:15.000They see the infinite field of gears and machines in front of them they're going to have to get ground through before they pop out on the other side.
01:36:46.000Like, if somebody said to you, like, Dave, you can never do stand-up again, but you can have a shitty reality show, I'd be like, fuck you, I'm not going to do that.
01:37:30.000It was on Comedy Central, where it was really cool.
01:37:32.000He would do his show, and then he would go out, and, you know, the idea would be that he's an insomniac.
01:37:37.000You go see what the fuck's going on at night.
01:37:38.000I really am an insomniac, and the sad part about it is being, you know, I don't drink anymore, so it's like being up For three days editing porn and having to do radio and all that kind of stuff.
01:37:53.000I love doing radio when it's somebody like you or ONA, Stern, where I get to just talk about other shit and just be funny.
01:38:01.000A lot of these stations that they have me on sometimes, like these soccer mom stations, there's a lot of stuff you can talk about, but then there's also...
01:39:53.000What is that computer that tells them, like, you know, We're good to go.
01:40:20.000And the only way you find out if someone's entertaining is you gotta let them be themselves.
01:40:23.000And when you start fucking with this and tweaking that and changing that, people that are creative understand what's going on there, that it's a stifling sort of...
01:40:33.000But the people that are uncreative, they're just trying to fix it.
01:40:35.000We're just trying to make more money with this.
01:40:37.000We're just trying to make this a better radio show.
01:41:06.000Every show I've ever done where the show wasn't doing well and the producers came in and the executives came in and they had notes.
01:41:12.000Ugh, those fucking notes were terrible and they ruined everything.
01:41:15.000Well, you know, like you said, it's got to be someone's vision.
01:41:19.000Like, Ron and Fez, these guys, like, I listen to them, you know, and, like, they definitely have a point of view, a perspective, and there's, like, definitely a chemistry with the people in the room there, so it's intriguing to watch.
01:41:30.000Same thing with, you know, Nick DiPaolo and Artie Lang.
01:41:32.000They've got a sports show on, and, like, sports, unless you're a hardcore sports guy, you know, it's kind of hard to listen to it, but...
01:42:49.000Check him out because he's fucking cool.
01:42:51.000And, you know, there's a whole bunch of young guys coming up now that I work with who I think also have the same heart and soul of these, like, you know, Big J, Kurt Metzger.
01:44:17.000A guy had gotten his key from the valet, and he was hammered, and he just plowed through this line of people and sent people flying through the air.
01:44:27.000And we came out literally seconds after it happened.
01:44:31.000And it was so strange because there was just eerie silence.
01:44:35.000We walked out and it was literally seconds after it happened and people were lying on the ground.
01:45:39.000I always blame it on, like, you know, like, it's near Huntington Beach, so it must be like, you know, the surfer people didn't, you know, come out.
01:46:23.000Or not just a couple of mid-jokes and, you know, whatever, Obama.
01:46:26.000But either way, man, the people that listen to this show would love to see you wherever you are.
01:46:29.000So just tell me where you're going to be and I'll tweet it.
01:46:31.000Well, I'm going to San Diego this weekend and I don't even really know the club, but I'm looking forward to it because I haven't played there one.
01:48:13.000So when we find something that's good, we promote the shit out of it.
01:48:17.000Well, now that I've been doing it over 26 years, I've never appreciated more of the people that get the comedy Back in the day, it was like the drinking party frat guys.
01:48:27.000Now it's like they're older now, they're all married, they bring their wives in, they're like, what the fuck is this kind of shit?
01:48:32.000But I really appreciate the comedy fan who gets the jokes and sees like, hey dude, I saw you with Mitch Hedberg and Louis Black on tour, and that was the best tour, and I love Mitch, and all kinds of stuff.
01:48:43.000That kind of shit, I never get tired of.
01:48:46.000I've gotten it a lot from people who've seen you, heard you on Rogan's podcast, It's really cool to hear you guys, you know, chew it up about the comedy.
01:48:55.000So, there are definitely a lot of comedy fans out there.
01:48:58.000We just need you guys to, like, fucking come to the clubs.
01:49:01.000Well, they just need to find out where you're at.
01:49:03.000I guarantee you that's a big part of it.
01:49:05.000There's a lot of people that are huge David Tell fans.
01:49:07.000They just wouldn't know that you're gonna be somewhere.
01:53:03.000I like being in a place where I can get in a cab and get to the airport because I'm a comic.
01:53:08.000It's all about getting at him and that.
01:53:11.000Which is impossible now because the mayor shut down all these streets and there's bike lanes, there's unicycle lanes, there's skip to my loo lanes.
01:53:46.000Well, the cool thing about living in Manhattan is that you don't have to have a car, because there's the subway, and then there's cabs, and then there's buses.
01:53:51.000Yeah, but you're letting all these other people drive for you all the time.
01:54:58.000I believe it was like 48 was the record one year.
01:55:01.000And it was pretty spooky for these fucking cab drivers, especially those gypsy cabs.
01:55:06.000There's a lot of people that are operating as cab drivers that have different licenses or no licenses, and they're just sort of sneaking around and giving people rides.
01:55:29.000They have to go through this incredible...
01:55:31.000They're also like, their father was a cab driver, and their father's father kind of bullshit.
01:55:35.000When we were in, I think it was in Manchester, with my friend Dave Bishop, we got a ride with some dude who was just an illegal cab driver.
01:56:10.000How are the porn stars reacting to, for folks who don't know, Brian said they're going to be out of work because they just passed some crazy news.
01:57:14.000But what sucks is they had all these hidden things built into it.
01:57:18.000Meaning if you're married at home and you want to go on MyFreeCams or whatever, do a webcam show, you have to have a permit that costs up to something ridiculous like $60,000 just to do that.
01:57:31.000Just that porn with your own wife webcam.
01:57:33.000So there's all these hidden things that they put in there on top of it.
01:57:37.000And everyone knows that AIDS is not real, so...
01:57:40.000Well, according to Dr. Peter Duisburg, but we really shouldn't be saying AIDS is not real.
01:57:46.000You know, the thing about making porn now is there's such little money in it.
01:57:51.000I think a lot of girls think, like, I'll just do porn for a while, and that'll be this amazing amount of money, and then I'll go off and do other things.
01:57:59.000But porn is like, I'd say it would be like, Working like the maitre d' at like a fancy restaurant, you're making that kind of money, but you're doing it in like an afternoon.
01:58:08.000But like, you know, instead of working a whole week, you're going to make that much money.
01:58:11.000And they work scene to scene unless they're a contract girl.
01:58:13.000And the contract girls probably make some more money and they also get a lot more publicity.
01:58:17.000But unless the girls actually control their image and own their material, their chances of making the sizable amount of money, which they're due, by the way, they are definitely due money.
01:59:15.000I think in porn, too, people live for the moment, so there's probably a lot of guys who have money, but they, you know, like, want to show it off.
01:59:24.000And, you know, they think the money's going to always be coming in, and, like, you know, might as well buy that car and, like, a boat and all that kind of stuff.
01:59:29.000And then a lot of girls also live kind of high up there.
01:59:33.000And now they realize they're like, you know, I really should save some money.
01:59:36.000But at least the girls are still getting some money.
01:59:38.000The guys, the producers, that shit's done, man.
01:59:43.000I have no idea who's making money and how it's being made.
01:59:46.000I know that there was a big buyout on a lot of these companies where now they're all kind of under one flag and that it's good and bad for porn where like, you know, a lot of these independent producers...
02:00:32.000I really want, you know, this show is about tributizing not only the old porn stores but making it a cool place for young ones to come out and show everybody that they're funny and cool and they're just, you don't need to see them naked without them being interesting and that, you know, it's great for comics to roll with this kind of shit since we all know the porn.
02:00:49.000And it's kind of like, it's very important for me that this show works for the industry.
02:00:56.000You know, like, and at the AVNs, When I meet the people, they go, oh, I love the show.
02:01:00.000I love what you're doing for porn, and I never really got it, but now I get it, because it's a place for the people to see them do something besides fuck.
02:01:07.000Yeah, to see them in a positive light, too.
02:01:34.000So what's crazy to me is that that industry, when the internet boom came along, that industry was essentially gutted, took the legs right off of it.
02:03:56.000If you have gigs coming up, people want to know about them, and I want to tell them, so let me know anytime you're anywhere.
02:04:01.000I guarantee you, all these people on Twitter, they're saying yes, yes, yes to that right now.
02:04:06.000Well, I'll be in San Diego, but when I get back to LA, if you're doing anything around town, let me know, because I want to come out and just...
02:05:10.000We're going to talk about military robots, privacy issues, artificial intelligence, the future on how long until we start incorporating robotics technology into our own bodies.

02:07:06.000If you use the code word SANDY, we will take that 10% and donate it to Hurricane Relief.
02:07:12.000We decided to go with the Salvation Army because we find that in this instance, they are giving 100% of the donations to Hurricane Relief, whereas some of them it gets down to as low as like 30%.
02:07:25.000That's kind of important, like how much of your money actually goes to the, not to the infrastructure of the charity, but actually goes to help.
