00:00:12.260
and uh ari shield is in the back here blurrily in the background and um i just got my show
00:00:22.300
cancelled in calgary because of a joke about natives and uh you know apparently there's no
00:00:32.600
freedom of speech on native land so um there's definitely no drinking water yeah well they're
00:00:40.640
drinking something but uh whoa all the shows are canceled oh you can't make a joke can't make
00:00:48.640
can't make light of it podcast is canceled live live wait i tried to ask grok how much money the
00:00:56.340
canadian government has given um uh indigenous people and it won't answer how much money has
00:01:04.540
the canadian government given indigenous people since 2020 and it won't it won't answer how much
00:01:09.980
money has canadian gov to natives since 2020 sorry about that i just won't answer it can you try to
00:01:25.540
google it oh great somebody's saying get your money out of canadian banks jesus fucking christ dude
00:01:34.780
man killed in morning stabbing in ottawa's east end canada's just falling apart like rapidly
00:01:43.940
and it's it's kind of i mean i'm canadian so it is sad i put out the canadian comedy special thinking
00:01:51.180
like it's weird because it was the perfect time because people are going to be so upset rightfully
00:01:57.700
that the show was canceled um for you know for a joke also it's i'm a comedian it was me on stage
00:02:04.040
doing comedy it wasn't me getting canceled for like screaming at a native guy at a bus station or
00:02:10.140
something you know what i mean like for real yeah exactly and it's like like i just watched the clip
00:02:15.360
and uh like you're laughing at what you're saying because clearly you're like being facetious like
00:02:21.340
you're joking like you know like anyone that's watched stand-up comedy would watch that and be
00:02:26.400
like yeah this guy's clearly like joking and saying funny shit like it's not uh it's not like
00:02:32.500
you fucking sig heiled and threw a rock at a native baby like well but also it's how many of the people
00:02:38.780
who are this one woman who's complaining or these other people are complaining how many of them are
00:02:44.380
writing emails to the government to try to fix whatever their perceived problems are with you know
00:02:49.800
that with like these are yeah i didn't do residential schools i mean i don't think that they're i i i don't
00:02:57.320
really even know what they are like what i've been told anything what i've been bringing more attention
00:03:03.420
to it by making light of it like it's like you know what i mean it's like it's better to do that than
00:03:09.400
not acknowledge them at all what to pretend it didn't happen like that's how history gets forgotten
00:03:14.460
so yeah no it's kind of crazy that it's like yeah but my point is like i didn't do residential
00:03:21.320
schools do i think they're good or bad it's like i well i don't think put like taking children from
00:03:27.180
their families is good like that's never good but um i also don't know anything about them really other
00:03:34.480
than they're bad like people go they're bad so that's why the joke's funny because everybody
00:03:39.540
collectively knows they're bad you know what i'm saying it's like this it's the equivalent of
00:03:45.800
making a joke and be like a lot of jews out here like it's time to open up i mean no agreed and like
00:03:53.880
that's it's like what i said before where it's like uh the casino that's canceling you is like the
00:04:00.260
it's on a reserve so the majority of their clientele is native people and they're acting like oh we're
00:04:05.200
woke by canceling this comedian i don't think it is i don't think it is uh majority i think it's
00:04:10.680
majority like white people probably they're spending money i don't think that i mean maybe
00:04:15.160
i'm wrong there because i was saying that like they're acting like they're coming from a place
00:04:19.800
of moral high ground but it's like you guys are just taking money from natives so it's like my
00:04:23.540
perception of it well they're taking money from natives that the natives got from the government
00:04:28.160
and they're i looked that up by the way what is it um 450 million since i think 2022 since 2022
00:04:38.320
450 million dollars in and and like a lot of them just get checks right like they just get like
00:04:45.180
there was a there was like last year i think a bunch of natives got like a hundred thousand dollar
00:04:49.420
checks and i'm not saying that and am i arguing that they should be taken away or no fine you got
00:04:54.180
your check but take your check and where the hells are you going what are you doing
00:05:00.460
get us some drinks for god's sakes this guy what is he trying to protect his
00:05:07.260
i was canceled in america because i made a joke about residential schools that nobody knows that they
00:05:18.560
but the whole point it's like you know people are coming to my show they want to laugh hard
00:05:26.280
am i supposed to just be like well tonight you're getting a toned down version because uh
00:05:31.940
what's funny is if you did atlantic college but i feel like your fans would laugh even harder
00:05:35.700
yeah i know it almost makes this is this is all really really funny the whole my whole act is going
00:05:41.320
to be 10 times funnier and better because of this yeah you pretty they pretty much like they thought
00:05:46.320
oh we're gonna like they pretty much just gave you 15 minutes on dating honestly let's be like if the
00:05:52.220
show happened they would have been like fucking with me the whole time they would have fucked with
00:05:56.140
the sound they would have made it weird and also like yeah they were making they were gonna make
00:06:02.720
like they're making like uh i'm getting paid like 30 percent of what they're making yeah and that's
00:06:12.440
not even counting drinks that's just tickets and it's a guarantee and i don't i don't want to talk
00:06:17.560
about it but i there's something going on with the deposit like the deposit like who has the deposit
00:06:22.820
you know what i mean i gotta find all that out anyway it's just fucked up but we're gonna do the
00:06:28.040
shows somewhere we're gonna sell out whatever their shows are and um you know fuck everybody
00:06:34.280
who's gonna try to cancel shows but you won't will you stand up to the government and demand with
00:06:41.620
but you they already did they already got 450 million dollars i don't know what else what else
00:06:46.500
that's the funny part is it's it's you know the the natives were demanding all this stuff so they gave
00:06:53.020
them money and then they're still not happy so it's like well you know it's also like the craziest
00:07:00.000
individuals of that group too like the woman like you said uh she's not only complaining about you
00:07:07.500
she's also saying that some employee at a auto body shop assaulted her and they should be fired
00:07:14.180
that's like it seems like she just has a history of complaining well this is the thing is it's you know
00:07:19.960
the the venue itself was probably waiting patiently for something like this to happen hoping one day
00:07:28.280
they're gonna get an email they're gonna get a complaint yeah and then they can escalate it and
00:07:32.760
then because there was probably already whisperings at the company of like well what's he gonna well
00:07:37.440
he's not making fun of us so he's making fun of everybody else or whatever and it's like one oh he
00:07:43.160
can't that was a it's a sacred day it's a fucking holiday i mean you can make fun of christmas you
00:07:50.860
can make fun of fucking easter you can make fun of all any other holiday you can make a joke about
00:07:55.700
whatever the hell you want hanukkah you can make a you know you can make a holocaust joke on hanukkah
00:08:01.740
is it you know i mean in irregardless of the context context it's about the right to do it and
00:08:11.300
this is this this theater slash casino that's canceling my show is doing it at a time when
00:08:20.380
the canadian government is tabling a bill c8 or c9 where they want to just they want to be able to
00:08:26.760
shut down your phone and take away your bank account with no explanation of why based on what
00:08:34.500
you're saying on social media they're going to go potentially even harder than the uk which do you
00:08:40.860
think i'm supposed to just sit there and be like that's fine when during covet i was against it
00:08:44.440
yeah and and jordan peterson talked about this they'll take one step forward and then people
00:08:49.100
will complain so they'll take two steps back back and then the next time they'll take three steps
00:08:53.920
forward and then people will complain and they'll take one step back and then again three steps
00:08:58.900
forward they are they want people to be silenced who want to speak out and be different and be uh you
00:09:05.940
know it's just complete terrifying it's lit i think it's marxism i don't know what else it is
00:09:12.200
but you're not allowed to talk about it you're not everything's just supposed to be you know
00:09:16.340
what'd you eat for breakfast today i had a burrito they're taking away freedom of speech in canada and
00:09:22.360
americans should be fucking worried because is it you know when trump loses if sorry if or if well
00:09:30.020
he doesn't run again or whoever's after it what my point is if the democrats get in again
00:09:35.440
they're gonna pull some shit like this they're gonna want to silence people and it's fucking
00:09:42.260
yeah what do you think ari what do you think about this
00:09:47.600
this guy's fasting for yom kippur does this microphone work he ate a fucking port yeah it's
00:09:55.920
plugged in and it works nice he ate a pork chop and then he was like oh i should do yom kippur
00:10:01.140
yeah this guy's like i want to fast all day and then interact with celebrities
00:10:14.960
oh look it's shane gillis i've been and i eat for 16 hours
00:10:18.280
who's out there it's okay we won't even talk to shane gillis
00:10:21.320
you won't yeah not with that attitude brother what the hell jesus yeah ari's
00:10:37.420
that's like the most offensive thing you can do when you're hanging out with ben bankers is not eat
00:10:44.560
look at him and just be like i don't want to eat
00:10:51.900
it's armin i'm challenging myself this is the the opposite of the ben bankers food challenge
00:10:58.020
why don't you challenge yourself by just being like a better
00:11:03.320
i'm fasting i'm so productive uh what did you do today i fasted i didn't eat
00:11:14.200
i was laying on the couch requiring calories to need my brain to find
00:11:19.240
if i sleep into one then i only don't have to eat for eight hours
00:11:23.440
i like to do the same sequence of the indiana jones game over and over
00:11:33.680
that's what a podcast is isn't that folks a little check-in huh
00:11:41.940
the ben bank is checking so these are the dates i still have up
00:11:45.680
but these are the dates that uh if i do i'll get arrested
00:11:48.060
but it's crazy because it's literally it's not like taken out of context tweets
00:11:55.080
no it's not like me giving an opinion on something it's a joke
00:11:59.280
clearly at a stand-up show people are laughing people are clapping
00:12:05.220
the joke was there's a there was a lot of homeless indigenous people and it'd be nice
00:12:11.260
if you know too bad they don't have a school to send them to
00:12:15.880
i mean it's why does that mean that i actually know ben bankers wants
00:12:22.100
he wants to stop out and run what the fuck are you talking about
00:12:25.220
even explaining it like i hate getting autistic and being gay about jokes
00:12:29.120
but like you are being sarcastic when you say that so that's the joke
00:12:35.760
i mean the the sliver of truth is like maybe that would be a good idea
00:12:42.760
but nobody actually but that's that's why it's funny to say that
00:12:46.680
because that's not it's not a good idea it's a bad idea
00:12:50.900
it's the same thing as being like oh there's too many jews as if there was a final solution to this
00:12:59.260
it honestly is like three people that emailed you the majority of messages you've gotten
00:13:03.440
were just death threats so i would love to know the like
00:13:09.300
have those people also emailed the venue and it's like well why would you that take this person's complaint seriously
00:13:17.440
like if i message someone and say i'm gonna fucking assault you on this day
00:13:22.160
yeah somebody was like i hope you get shot with your own shit
00:13:25.020
it's like so yeah it's like some retard boomer brain shit where it's like i can tell him i want him to get shot but with his shit
00:13:40.440
these disgusting people that can't handle being made fun of
00:13:45.340
and i'm not talking about natives i'm talking about people who complain online
00:13:49.980
but like some of them happen to be native and some of them happen to be white
00:13:53.940
and some of them happen to be whatever the fuck they are
00:13:55.960
and if you're complaining about a comedian and trying to get them cancelled from venues because of a joke
00:14:01.760
it'd be one thing if i was in the street screaming the n-word at a black guy or something
00:14:05.700
it'd be like fuck i fucked your whole career is over
00:14:17.000
that would be funny just a video of you crashing out at a minority at like a grocery store
00:14:23.700
but it's like i'm doing my job people were laughing and the point is yeah it's a risky joke
00:14:33.640
that's why people will want to pay money to see what i'm providing
00:14:38.700
if you're gonna just be like well you know i don't want to risk anything you know
00:14:42.480
all i talk about now is uh twiddling my thumbs and feeling bad about being
00:14:47.000
white and every day i think about all the bad stuff white people did like
00:14:51.720
make computers and phones and toilets and cars and planes
00:14:59.400
and the oh the fact you didn't see that but they want me to do an apology video
00:15:05.720
they're like we're refunding people right now but we would also like an apology video
00:15:14.720
i'm getting fired and that would again that would make sense if okay for like
00:15:19.600
it would never make sense to make a video maybe a statement personally to them
00:15:25.720
but it would only make sense if i like made a statement where i was like
00:15:32.640
like i don't know what i would have to say for to
00:15:41.280
it'd be one thing if they reached out to me personally like hey like
00:15:46.160
i still wouldn't have done it but if they were like can you apologize we'll still keep the show
00:15:52.860
like even if they were like yo take that video down or archive it
00:15:58.820
maybe you like you probably wouldn't do it but you would at least say well they reached out to me and tried to come to some conclusion
00:16:05.300
this one they just outright told you like no we're not doing this you're fucked and uh
00:16:11.420
it's uh it's pretty stupid on their part because who else are they gonna get to fill that date
00:16:34.040
somebody just sent me a date like of a show i think it's the grand prairie show like 26
00:16:38.940
like i'll be there i'm gonna murder you it's like
00:16:42.700
no number one no you're not you literally are just some loser who wants me to be afraid to do my job
00:16:49.380
because you got offended like a child not an adult by the way not a fucking grown adult that makes decisions
00:16:56.020
and you know is is is a part of society a toddler
00:17:00.820
who got offended and cried and and now is threatening death upon a comedian
00:17:07.500
and the comedians you know there's no record like it's weird because they can message you like a death threat
00:17:13.360
and like nothing happens to your account but if i were to be like actually fucking i hope you get
00:17:18.300
like if i just said exactly what they said i would get banned so it's like there's no protection even for
00:17:25.080
like people to like talk back to these like people who just think they can harass you and be like
00:17:30.640
you know you know you shouldn't be allowed to do your job any more because i watched one one minute
00:17:36.480
video of you and i thought it was offensive so i don't think that any club in the world should let
00:17:41.720
you do comp you're a fucking moron i'm sorry but you are a fucking loser and you're a moron you don't
00:17:48.280
know anything you don't understand how the world works you're you're uh you don't make money
00:17:53.340
not even that she was also naming clubs you haven't even performed that and club like the theater in
00:18:00.020
winnipeg that you did back in september she was like yeah he played at the burton cummings theater
00:18:06.460
it's like so now you're just messaging places he's been to trying oh yeah because our buddy our buddy
00:18:11.640
found her our buddy found her facebook and just started looking at her she posted about me tagging
00:18:16.880
like she also emailed but i guess she posts tagging the like venue but she tagged a venue i've already
00:18:21.740
done and like she's gonna harass them to be like don't ever have him again it's the show's already
00:18:27.400
done it's our we the people already came had a good time laughed spent money and by the way that
00:18:33.300
venue basically i sold like way too many tickets to get whatever i was getting like i sold 900 tickets
00:18:42.540
and they were doing some sketchy shit already like oh we only opened up these other tickets like it was
00:18:48.460
because people were messaging me for days me like i can't buy tickets but it says there's tickets
00:18:52.820
and it's because they were just not letting people buy more tickets because they just wanted to fuck me
00:18:57.100
over and then they did all this fuckery with the the check and made it like it was like i i literally
00:19:02.020
got the paid the same to do 900 people in winnipeg as half no no not even i got paid half as much
00:19:09.940
to do 900 people in winnipeg as i did 750 or no no sorry 450 in irvine california 450 people in
00:19:21.700
irvine more than double the pay than 900 in winnipeg and is that racial discrimination is that
00:19:29.860
you know so but no that's not enough to do that it should just not even he shouldn't be allowed in
00:19:34.800
the city he shouldn't be allowed to perform and so who should be then and who are the comics that
00:19:40.160
are selling tickets that should be allowed to perform and it does every comedian that is coming
00:19:44.620
to perform say it's a big name comic another comic that's an austin comic or whatever u.s comic
00:19:51.020
comes to do are they going to be filled in that hey by the way you're not allowed to say these things
00:19:57.160
here because and and is that freedom is that what what is that that is well they don't even do that
00:20:03.560
they wait for you to say it and then they complain it'd be one thing if they told you like look if you
00:20:08.280
do this gig you can't say this and then it's up to you to decide whether you take it or you do it
00:20:13.660
and then you don't care or you play by the rules like they just wait like even this like you were
00:20:19.400
booked there for months like they obviously had to have had the show's been booked for like half a
00:20:23.520
year or more like you know like it's insane six i think there was like 16 or 1700 tickets sold there
00:20:29.160
was 2300 pattern this happened to you in halifax recently as well where a week out from the venue
00:20:36.580
they just were like yeah no we can't do this we found out who you are and it's almost like they're
00:20:41.140
trying to intentionally fuck you over oh for sure they wanted i was saying to ari that they
00:20:48.760
definitely were like waiting patiently like somebody's gonna complain and the second they do
00:20:53.980
we're gonna raise the alarm by for every email that comes in and send it so every crackhead idiot
00:21:01.100
alcoholic loser facebook user that's gonna that saw a reel today is gonna complain and we're gonna
00:21:08.660
make this into this big thing and we're gonna and they think it's gonna hurt me and the reality is
00:21:12.600
it's not gonna hurt me that much because i did comedy i did not do a hate rally i did not get people
00:21:20.560
i did not get people at you know although we were across the street from a giant tiger i wasn't
00:21:26.500
performing in the parking lot of the giant tiger with a megaphone and and creating chaos it was a planned
00:21:32.900
scheduled legal event for adults consenting adults 18 and up you have to be an adult i think or if not
00:21:42.440
they have to be accompanied by a my a parent as by a minor yo if you're under age you gotta have
00:21:49.300
another minor with you otherwise you're not getting it bankers island um
00:21:55.220
but you know what i'm saying is like it's like nobody was like it's just insane that you even
00:22:03.660
have to say this in canada because it's like you know what i mean they're treating it like uh they're
00:22:08.180
treating it like i'm a residential school teacher that forced all the students to come to school that
00:22:13.220
day so i could do a sermon or something it's like i'm joking about how fucking bad it was obviously
00:22:18.720
it was bad look at what that's why everybody's maybe that's why or partly why everybody's you know in the
00:22:24.320
streets or maybe because there's literally a new country on top of what was their quote unquote not
00:22:30.740
just theirs there was tons of different native warring factions that were at war the iroquois were
00:22:38.040
at war with the mohawk and the algonquin and the thing they weren't all just getting along like you
00:22:42.960
know like nobody's business they were fucking fighting each other bows and arrows doing all kinds
00:22:48.160
of crazy shit slitting throats for thousands of years so this idea that i mean well am i but no
00:22:54.980
but is it offensive to say that you know i mean they would think i'm not saying that white people
00:23:02.580
weren't also doing that but i'm saying that there's literally no group on earth that wasn't didn't do war
00:23:08.760
and genocides and you know they never there's no native groups that ended up dying out because other
00:23:17.120
native groups fought them that's bullshit it's bullshit um so and i'm not saying it's right i'm
00:23:23.720
not saying but i'm saying that if we're all going to get along in these countries there has to be some
00:23:29.080
brevity there has to be some ability to be like that's a funny joke obviously it's so bad and wrong
00:23:34.520
that's why it's funny that's what funny is and did i personally do do any of these things no
00:23:41.640
so does that mean that nobody who's not indigenous or not you know if you know if i was indigenous and
00:23:49.240
i did that joke would that be okay yes oh well he's you know he's he's one of us so but it's it's just
00:23:58.400
this you know i've joked about literally every group and i i think i'm pretty equal about it and
00:24:06.960
the jokes really aren't even that it's like what's what's the hurtful aspect of that saying that if the
00:24:12.680
schools were open these people wouldn't be on the streets why is that so offensive because it's it's
00:24:18.380
not true but some people might think it's true which is why it's funny i think it's the fact that
00:24:24.440
those like in any group by the way any like group that feels like oh you can't joke about my thing
00:24:30.300
they just have this power socially where you know if you're in the office and you say i'm getting a
00:24:35.100
phone call fired oh great armin yo we talked to the chief the show's back on yeah no i talked to yucks
00:24:48.160
and he's like i fucking love it res res school joke it's honestly at this point it might just be
00:24:53.540
yucks canceling you from all these massive shows yeah yucks is like this guy's jokes were a little
00:24:59.880
too far maybe you should go to yucks yeah this is a lot funnier over at yucks it's a lot funnier 240
00:25:07.500
people at a time make them work eight times as hard but i'm gonna yeah no it's gonna be way more
00:25:13.000
beneficial for me fuck them i mean yeah obviously fuck them i shouldn't have even fucking been doing
00:25:18.000
that like fucking room and to begin with like you know on the it's like there's no freedom of speech
00:25:27.540
on the on the native land there instead of a sign language interpreter they have a guy at the side
00:25:34.360
we have to do once once we once this is yeah there's the actual show is going to be like a bit
00:25:44.320
more of a show potentially like might have to bring like arian with like feathers on his head or something
00:25:50.120
and then he can go on and be like i'm american i'm allowed to do this
00:25:55.260
yeah yeah technically americans but really who fucked up the like native people more was it us
00:26:03.800
the americans i feel like it was americans well i think because it's like colder here
00:26:08.320
you know yeah i don't dude i don't know i'm not i i like i'm not you shouldn't have to have a phd
00:26:17.740
to fucking make a joke at a comedy show i mean this is getting crazy do you know the history honestly
00:26:22.920
i don't i just know what would be funny in the context of me saying it and if people did
00:26:27.640
if they didn't laugh i wouldn't have posted it for god's sakes
00:26:30.900
it's like the the influx of people being like you aren't funny it's like
00:26:36.920
but like what is that even like what am i supposed to do with that like just be like okay that's it
00:26:42.100
calling it i mean that would be i think that would be funny if you just literally saw one bad
00:26:47.480
comment deleted your page just went back to commercial real estate you're like oh i don't know
00:26:52.180
fucking uh but that's the hope like do they really think people are that
00:26:56.700
they think people are that retarded that is the hope i mean i don't think they i mean they would
00:27:03.700
like you to quit for sure but i think the the reality is they just want you to see it

00:29:57.960
yeah so it's gonna be sick back to yucks and i was like and he's like i hope there's protesters i'm
00:30:05.180
like i hope there's protest that'd be fucking hilarious protesting a casino it's it's it's like
00:30:12.280
for anything like and not for ripping everybody off and stealing hundreds of millions of dollars
00:30:18.360
what were you saying before i think you said that before it started recording yeah it's just like
00:30:22.840
the casino trying to take a high road stance of like oh he's making jokes about natives it's like
00:30:27.880
i bet 50 of your clientele at least is native people spending their money at your casino getting
00:30:34.300
drunk and losing at gambling so it's like you want to act like yeah what the fuck am i performing at a
00:30:40.120
fucking like a community center like it's a fucking casino this is the scum of the earth we're talking
00:30:45.940
about what are we doing here literally no and i didn't talk shit about the casino that's remember
00:30:52.640
in that louis episode he's like you never talk shit about the casino while you at the casino
00:30:56.360
and then he does it and then like joan rivers like tells him he's like yes but those casinos are
00:31:03.640
paying them properly like they're not like ripping them the fuck off casinos aren't like louis ck
00:31:08.740
you talked about so they wouldn't they do you remember the last casino were you at the other
00:31:14.620
casino with me in in calgary no you did yeah you were yeah because then you left a day the day after
00:31:22.220
and i stayed for a day fuck i was yeah what casino that was also i thought it was like reindeer deer
00:31:29.720
foot deer foot yeah that was another indigenous and they were chill and like but remember everybody
00:31:35.580
was just like there was just sketchy people drunk out of their minds everywhere there was beer
00:31:39.800
bottles everywhere in the hallways the guys were like you could order coors lights to the room and
00:31:45.280
it was like there in like two seconds and like the guy was like trying to come into the room and like
00:31:50.520
he was like the guy serving it was drunk and i was everybody was there's cops and it's it's like
00:31:56.700
what the fuck is this guys like you know they literally i didn't feel safe on the casino floor there
00:32:02.680
like i didn't feel safe walking around the casino and i and not because they didn't know who i was
00:32:07.220
at that point it's kind of funny that i'm becoming famous for the like i'm literally like i want to be
00:32:12.080
famous in canada well you got to make the natives know who you are first going to the first i'm going
00:32:17.800
to right to the source ben bank is really famous and in the native community hated but famous
00:32:24.780
but then i do have natives who come to my shows and like that was funny like i like so i don't know
00:32:32.940
it's like there's a mentally if you're mentally ill you're going to be offended because definitely a
00:32:38.680
shit ton of native people that are like yo that's really funny it's the crazy ones that make them
00:32:44.420
it's a bad apple that makes everyone look bad you know what i mean it's those ones that message you
00:32:49.040
like i hope you fucking die and then you just go like the fuck yeah you're an igloo name yeah
00:32:56.840
yucks keeps canceling the shows is really funny though it'd be a shame if uh something happened to
00:33:03.340
your show you would have to do let me calculate how many yuck shows that would be uh
00:33:07.540
three thousand divided by 240 uh it looks like you're here for a month i know weren't you just
00:33:15.480
telling me it'd be really funny if you did that publicity stunt of doing 30 shows at the same
00:33:19.960
venue yeah so it's gonna happen looks like you just did that to yourself and making all the shows
00:33:27.020
to the third full comedy club biggest canadian tour of yucks ben bangus did 600 shows last year
00:33:33.340
two shows a night two shows a night every night that's not even 600 how many shows that
00:33:40.820
that would be 700 oh i guess not every day but uh it would be really funny to just say
00:33:47.820
i will be doing yucks calgary every night two nights twice a night for the next year
00:33:55.800
that shit would make you such a strong comic though like if you could it would almost become like a
00:34:01.720
it would become like a tourist attraction that people would be flying in to be like i heard ben
00:34:06.560
bangus is here this year two shows a night yeah if you get your tickets from ben bangus you're
00:34:12.700
gonna go on sky scan that's nice he's getting paid in chips
00:34:19.660
oh god what a fucking nightmare it would have been a fun show i and i feel like even if i
00:34:30.100
if i had done that joke at that venue at with that like they laughed what can they say they'd be
00:34:37.620
like well i didn't like it but i see that everybody liked it and that we're in the business of bringing
00:34:42.160
people the worst case is that they say don't come back here and you're probably gonna go
00:34:45.400
ah well i don't fucking okay that's fine i did the show yeah we'll do the saddle dome or whatever your
00:34:51.420
arena is fucking cock yeah jesus christ we are on the unceded territory of ben bangus
00:35:04.680
that's what this episode what were you looking at on your phone jewish stuff food i don't even
00:35:10.800
remember yeah i was playing wordle or something oh my god he's playing fucking angry birds during the
00:35:17.820
podcast like a chinese guy in the body of an old jewish man
00:35:20.940
what the fuck dude i don't have to take this shit
00:35:28.420
it's actually it's honestly like kind of funny just staying at a guy's place rent free
00:35:32.860
and just being like what you want me to do a podcast what the fuck is your problem
00:35:36.560
jesus it is very well you want me to have a conversation with you fuck off
00:35:41.780
what's on your face where do you have a little red thing there yeah i was a little bit irritated
00:35:46.220
in the pool maybe let's get her put some stuff on it maybe no i was just like jesus it's like
00:35:58.320
that's why he wanted to fly back to new york he was like my skin
00:36:09.040
yeah dude why why do jews do this to themselves and then wonder why people think they're miserable
00:36:16.160
the fuck is that i mean muslims do it for a whole month
00:36:21.260
they got a lot of problems with those people too
00:36:50.820
there's my new joke there's the there's the joke i walk out calgary every night 17 shows in a row
00:36:58.220
no drinking water but they got a lot of cause lights
00:37:02.240
oh yeah what was the other joke that the fact that the woman that wrote the paragraph had a lot of spelling errors
00:37:13.380
well if there was a building she could have gone to as a child
00:37:17.320
are there any buildings for children where they teach you how to read them right
00:37:39.020
the most unimpressed guy with austin but like impressed with like just mitzies
00:37:47.200
i know yeah for sure he's just like a new york jew like this is terrible and then he sees like two famous people and he perks up
00:38:03.720
never heard of him did you see what he said about native people shame
00:38:11.160
it's kind of funny because now i can just post that again and be like yo this was the clip that got me banned by the ticot
00:38:21.720
i really it really is just like they sold you another thousand tickets it's fucking amazing
00:38:28.920
they're like look we're not paying you well enough so we're gonna fire you for this obscure reason
00:38:37.000
it would be funny that they start getting complaints from my crowd and then like they just like they're like we've made a mistake
00:38:47.880
the casino like don't go to this casino they don't allow free
00:38:51.560
whatever speech yada yada and then they just like start losing so much money
00:38:56.280
and but like i'm pretty sure they're just subsidized by the government like i don't even think they
00:39:00.520
i don't even know how it works they don't have to pay tax all that money is tax-free
00:39:05.400
so they were gonna make like 40 grand 45 extra grand plus booze plus all the people gambling
00:39:13.880
for my show that that now they're just not gonna make like yeah easily like over 150k that's retarded
00:39:40.280
he never got any other club just yachts can always go to yucks
00:39:45.320
always go there it is cool that yucks is always there
00:39:47.960
yucks is always there for me every time i do profanity
00:39:57.080
just realistically cut to you in the green room being like what do you mean i can't smoke
00:40:00.680
what do you mean i gotta go three flights of stairs i have a smoke
00:40:18.120
16 times eight what the fuck and then i get the check i'm like all right that was a good show
00:40:23.640
good weekend this is good it's great great i know i have bankers on the last show of every weekend
00:40:29.160
it's just like hey i want to go home and then you get that check you're like oh i love comedy
00:40:36.360
you are yeah well what were we looking at in chandler you were looking at how much george carlin made in
00:40:42.040
the 70s was like 25 grand yeah george carlin on his peak made 50 000 us 1972 no i think he made
00:40:51.640
like 500 like his peak was like yeah the equivalent to like two but only the equivalent to like two or
00:40:56.760
three million like it wasn't like where it's like netflix deals for like 16 million and shit
00:41:01.000
yeah like but everything was cheaper so it's like 1.2 million like you're
00:41:04.680
if you paid like 1500 a month in rent like you had like a mansion so like i guess exactly it makes sense
00:41:10.600
but it is just funny to be like yeah it's funny like yo that's my hero he made 40 grand
00:41:19.320
16 000 a year i feel like richard prior made more because he did movies and i feel like the movies
00:41:26.200
way more money 100 i don't know why george i guess george carlin just wasn't as good of an actor
00:41:34.200
no man i mean he was like he talked to because on the first episode of snl he was supposed to be on
00:41:39.480
it and he was like just doing coke crashing out being like yo why don't this shit's not
00:41:43.400
funny what is this right one of the head writers told him that he was like stealing lenny bruce's
00:41:49.640
act after he was dead and he was like all right yeah walk it out and then he talks about it he's
00:41:53.560
like yeah i probably should have stuck around but he was just on drugs and he was like he was george
00:41:58.600
carlin so he was kind of just the king of comedy he just kept putting out like hours and specials
00:42:04.440
whereas richard kind of did just do acting and he put out specials too but yeah i mean of course
00:42:12.120
honestly the greatest comedian of all time is uh simon rakoff oh my god i forgot to message you
00:42:18.360
that last night i was gonna just start messaging you random yuck comics we're at mothership
00:42:23.320
i was just gonna be like yo ian sirota's here what the
00:42:26.120
fuck little ryan tonkins here like it yeah all right this is a patreon i guess and uh good night
00:42:36.520
everybody all right plug your dates just kidding uh
00:42:40.760
guys hungry i'm like forcing him not to work out too he's getting fatter every day
00:43:00.360
every night he looks at me and goes i'm having the best night of my life
00:43:10.120
that's true yeah obviously once he the second he eats and he's at like mothership or sunset he's
00:43:15.240
gonna be like i am in the right place to be fair i kind of felt that too there were some the one lunch
00:43:21.880
