00:03:42.400
Well, it looks like there was a lot of different guys
00:05:11.920
Somebody took me one time on a ride in a Rolls Royce or whatever.
00:05:17.460
we had to park so far away because they didn't want anybody dinging the doors or anything.
00:05:23.600
So we had to find a spot like in a lot that was like,
00:05:32.340
You got to then get a car to get into the city.
00:05:51.020
I bought a Camaro super sport convertible 2011.
00:06:12.600
I think that's one thing you have to leave your family in that.
00:06:16.620
the Camaro super sport is the car you leave families in.
00:06:36.220
And you're leaving with like the Applebee's waitress.
00:07:05.440
it was the sort of dream gig is to work with them because,
00:07:17.140
me and Spade just wrote a movie together actually.
00:07:36.880
I think if I were coming out with like a fucking never ending bubble gum or
00:07:46.420
like a shoe that made you jump so high that all the bitches wanted you.
00:08:14.700
or is that a cool go-kart track that he starts drift drift?
00:08:26.100
And then obviously some 13 year old in Michigan beat you to it.
00:09:01.720
they had a rumor going around our area that pillows were taking people's ideas
00:09:10.880
It was like big pillow was like fucking everybody.
00:09:15.320
I remember for almost eight months and people were pissed.
00:09:22.640
so then you're just smashing blankets together,
00:09:30.220
Sleeping on your chubbiest brother's midsection.
00:09:41.360
it's just when we knew each other way back in the day,
00:09:48.680
And you didn't look at me going like this guy's a movie star.
00:10:23.060
Some third grader of Minnesota put us in his journal and it's,
00:10:29.260
he wrote pod podcaster underneath your photo actor underneath mine.
00:10:46.380
we knew each other for since like being in the hallways of the improv,
00:10:54.760
I don't know if you've and I talked about this or not.
00:11:00.000
but I'm just wondering where your original idea was.
00:11:04.960
they get into movies and they become a movie star.
00:11:16.100
the dream was basically like Sandler's path path,
00:11:36.280
remember that A and E show with like Bud Friedman,
00:11:38.180
and he'd wear his monocle and then they bring up the,
00:11:55.060
stand up and then you watch so much of it and I'm sure you kind of did the same thing.
00:12:08.860
you mean like a Louis CK or a Steven Wright or somebody like a Chris rock or someone?
00:12:46.240
which I think is probably around when I met you.
00:12:52.140
Was Anthony Clark working there then too or not?
00:13:30.980
I would love to sit in and talk with Anthony Clark.
00:13:47.820
that might've been maybe when work Alex was out.
00:13:52.980
you just went into this other world that a lot of us aren't in.
00:14:01.460
you just sort of prepare and try to put yourself in the right place at the right time.
00:14:06.000
and then you get your shot and hopefully you're able to hit it,
00:14:14.460
I was kind of the kid at the improv where I was like working the door and shit.
00:14:30.800
I remember watching one guy do a set one time with fries in his hand.
00:14:41.420
then all of a sudden it was like all the older comics were like,
00:15:03.140
someone needs to have the same experiences as you.
00:15:07.160
it can make you feel like you can talk to somebody or things are a little more
00:15:21.080
I feel like we are kind of in the same class within like a few years of each
00:15:27.320
and then there's like kids that are coming up that you're like,
00:15:40.960
it's like whoever you were like doing open mics with,
00:15:51.520
we're going to be friends forever because we performed in a Chinese restaurant,
00:15:55.700
because we're performing when there's literally bowling happening right here.
00:16:15.500
who kind of introduces you to somebody else is interesting too,
00:16:33.160
it's hard for them to just be friends with every single person that comes along too,
00:16:37.060
as their career gets busier and they get more known.
00:16:41.260
I'll go into the improv and shit and I like won't know people,
00:17:20.000
I want to think about what that's like with you.
00:17:25.020
Cause Tom Segura has his special is coming out on the same day.
00:18:08.160
They brought me this idea like at like years ago at the tail end of workaholics.
00:18:20.380
your future in-laws are international bank robbers.
00:19:03.120
I'm like looking through an old notebook being like,
00:20:09.020
it's why I was so happy to work with Sandler's company is we could just go full steam on the comedy as opposed to,
00:20:41.000
I feel like superhero movies kind of ruined comedies because they,
00:20:49.500
you go to the theater and you're expect to watch something that costs $200 million to make.
00:20:59.100
why would I spend the same amount of money to go watch a little comedy in a theater?
00:21:04.060
If I could spend the same amount of money and go see something that is,
00:21:10.340
and then they still make those movies kind of funny.
00:21:28.500
there used to be something like every studio would put out several comedies every,
00:21:32.900
And there was like 45 or 46 comedies in the theaters every year.
00:21:37.920
So about every week or every other week or so there's a new comedy in the theaters.
00:21:44.100
and then now last year there was like six or seven.
00:21:50.940
is it feels like people need comedy more than ever.
00:22:02.480
like you get to the end of what you think is a comedy.
00:22:09.040
is there like some deep hidden message that I'm supposed to,
00:22:30.480
And that's what your David Spade and your movie is about.
00:22:39.800
It's about a lot of vehicles admitting who they really are.
00:23:08.380
I feel like you could walk into a place and pitch that.
00:23:39.840
It doesn't need to attach itself to some like hook in the world right now.
00:23:54.300
I feel like super bad was one of the last movies that they kind of had like that in some ways.
00:24:09.380
that was sort of the last gasp of like for no reason at all.
00:24:36.420
you can check out Morgan and Morgan America's largest injury law firm.
00:24:42.380
They have over 100 offices nationwide and more than 800 lawyers with over $15 billion recovered for clients.
00:24:51.280
Morgan and Morgan has a proven track record of fighting to get you full and fair compensation.
00:24:57.740
Submitting a claim to Morgan and Morgan is easy.
00:25:04.140
Submitting a claim to Morgan and Morgan is as easy as picking out a shirt for a toddler.
00:25:20.560
go to for the people.com slash this past weekend.
00:25:25.160
That's F-O-R-T-H-E-P-E-O-P-L-E.com slash this past weekend or dial pound law pound five to nine from your cell.
00:26:03.280
me and Nina's character were about to get married.
00:26:19.040
And they take me out on like night on the town.
00:26:51.720
and they have masks on and they say something that leads me to believe that they're my in-laws.
00:27:00.200
And then they end up own owing someone money because they like bailed with the money last
00:27:19.400
if you don't give me $5 million within the end of the week,
00:27:24.100
And we have to go rob a series of banks to get my fiance back.
00:27:34.320
How long did it take to shoot something like that?
00:27:39.540
And were you guys able to shoot it in California?
00:28:05.880
So this is your first movie you're executive producing too?
00:28:11.320
which is the movie I did with the workaholics guys.
00:28:21.220
I feel like parents would want to watch this movie game over.
00:28:56.080
and also our phones are a device that we go to now for entertainment.
00:29:01.280
it was your television and then it became your television and your computer.
00:29:04.500
And that's when streaming really was at an insane level,
00:29:13.900
And it's also like the algorithm just kind of pushes things your way.
00:29:25.120
I walked into the last blockbuster probably one years ago and I walked,
00:29:36.180
And this is what was the most fascinating to me about it.
00:29:56.300
And that's because they don't get internet up there or they're just really,
00:30:00.840
I think just this lady doesn't want it to shut down.
00:30:08.400
you walk through the aisles and the interesting part is how many options there are.
00:30:27.760
And I realized how much of our ability to choose for ourselves without even realizing
00:30:39.120
And you used to go just in like the weird artwork,
00:30:52.160
I think they're going to show the bottom half of this nipple in the movie.
00:30:56.560
And then the crazy part was if it was a nipple movie,
00:31:12.280
you know how they have those like 4d seats in theaters now,
00:31:29.660
If there's like a doggy style scene or something like,
00:31:39.400
I think there's different types of chairs for sure.
00:31:42.320
You might have to invest in the right chair for you.
00:31:50.860
but it was pretty fascinating just how many options there were.
00:31:54.260
And I had never realized how much that went away.
00:31:58.020
I'm in the drama section that I'm in the comedy and then I'm seeing like,
00:32:14.700
Like that's what you were going to do that night.
00:32:28.640
but we're talking about how the business has changed and that's okay.
00:32:35.040
You could watch 15 minutes of something and go,
00:32:39.880
But like when you had the movie and that was what you were doing,
00:32:42.580
you would watch a bad movie and watch the entire thing because you spent the $8 or whatever it was to rent the damn movie.
00:32:54.640
They're not even showing the other half of the nipple.
00:32:57.120
So I don't know why we got to wait to the very end for the other half nipple to flop out.
00:33:07.940
I feel big candy's probably pretty bummed because you're no,
00:33:12.780
you're not going to the store because you're going to go home and watch Netflix and getting all the jujubes and Mike and Ikes and,
00:33:42.240
that they were probably into some sick stuff with children.
00:34:22.820
Who hides it under a little layer of chocolate?
00:36:13.680
every now and then somebody's got to test the science out there.
00:36:24.360
there was only a few kinds of candy back in the day.
00:36:32.020
My mom would get it with like the parents' candy.
00:36:37.600
even like a thousand grand or whatever that was always seemed like a,
00:36:44.680
like I remember my mom would always fuck up some almond joys.
00:37:03.620
I remember when they came out with nerd ropes and I was like,
00:37:14.540
You would see a lot of people doing unique stuff with them.
00:37:32.740
everyone's stitching their pants up with some nerd ropes.
00:37:48.860
We're going to then ride our bikes to the convenience store.
00:37:53.380
We'll probably play video games in the store because they always had like Ninja
00:38:03.560
Cause that's how much candy you used to be able to buy,
00:38:33.000
So we'd bike over there and you'd get you a little film and then you'd get you a little
00:39:00.020
it was a different time whenever you go to that.
00:39:28.700
they had like the curtain where the naughty movies were back there.
00:39:33.780
you're a little kid and you'd always just like try to,
00:40:22.040
Someone threw their mom's ashes on stage at a pink concert.
00:40:30.000
did the mom love pink this much that that's the thing?
00:41:09.420
That's about the biggest thing you can do is probably throw somebody's mom on a stage.
00:41:14.340
you hope that the mom was like a diehard pink fan or us.
00:41:18.360
you're just carrying around your mom all over to try to like meet your heroes.
00:41:28.760
like if I have a kid and then my kid like uses it to like go to a Jojo Siwa concert or some shit,
00:41:39.600
Why are you using me to get close to Jojo Siwa?
00:41:54.600
One of my friends used to live next door to her actually.
00:41:58.480
doesn't she live in like a cotton candy castle or something?
00:42:04.000
on the like northwest corner of the Candyland board.
00:42:18.480
and then what we would do is we would go out and like,
00:42:21.420
people are so drunk there that they will just give alcohol to children.
00:42:26.580
you would just stand by the beer tent and be like,
00:42:37.120
This boy in a full on body cast is asking for beer.
00:42:42.740
This boy petting this dead bird with a neck brace.
00:42:52.420
there was some empowering thing probably for an adult giving liquor to a kid.
00:43:19.820
like when you see a kid who did not drink and then they go off to college.
00:43:24.600
I remember like our valedictorian or like she was,
00:43:30.220
I was never at any of the dumb kid parties that I was at.
00:43:38.020
like looking at me with like one fucking cyborg eye.
00:43:57.360
you know how to handle your scandal a little bit.
00:44:03.020
my friends would pick me up and I was a lightweight.
00:44:09.140
he drove a church van or something or he commandeered one or whatever.
00:44:25.400
But there was the different rows in the church van and whatever row you
00:44:42.200
And one of the people staying warm is like an abortion that like made it,
00:44:49.400
there's a failed abortion clinic in the very back where they can't figure it,
00:45:04.160
Just trying to figure out how to get back to the church.
00:45:30.020
you can drink hard seltzer as water all day long.
00:45:38.520
A lot of times they would give me the weed to test it out,
00:45:44.780
I would literally fall asleep because the weed was real strong.
00:45:47.440
And then they'd wake me up when it was literally time to go home.
00:45:53.200
I had a real sleeping disorder maybe for like six or seven years kind of.
00:46:02.460
I remember just being in my buddy's dad's van and we would,
00:46:31.500
We would sometimes do drugs at his house when he wasn't there.
00:46:48.140
Some dad like driving cross country to South Oakley.
00:46:54.260
While you're doing drugs at his house as a good guy.
00:47:18.540
he rolls up to some place with a bunch of just soaking wet boxes.
00:47:25.540
Something about the stink of these glasses are flying off the shelves.
00:47:39.360
my friends would call her Skeletor and she was a very mean to us,
00:47:44.680
but for some reason we'd still go to her parties.
00:47:46.920
And then my friends were like pissing her parents' closets and shit.
00:47:57.820
We're calling her Skeletor and pissing in closets.
00:48:34.440
And then like those girls don't definitely couldn't put that together.
00:48:47.900
I remember we did a bunch of LSD and this lady got caged up or not lady,
00:48:53.400
someone that was the same age as us got caged up in this room,
00:49:32.420
I told him a story about my childhood and he's like,
00:49:40.040
which essentially was this woman who used to buy us beer and shit.
00:50:04.040
you got us have a few here before you can leave.
00:50:16.380
like these people were like adults and they're just like bong ripping with like 16 year old kids.
00:50:23.700
I took enough bong rips that I turned like green.
00:50:48.020
this fucking little girl crawls into bed with me.
00:50:53.220
And then luckily my buddies like grabbed me and pulled me out of there.
00:51:02.420
Why is there people that are still living that much in the past where they are?
00:51:20.520
I feel like dads get arrested for that shit pretty quickly.
00:51:36.500
the fact that we were able to party at this woman's house and like,
00:51:49.200
I remember drove a van with like that swimming pool ladder on the back.
00:52:25.360
It was called a Mark three and it had like the little lights.
00:52:38.580
And then there was a little like 13 inch TV with a cassette.
00:53:03.120
And we went and my brother and I would go and sleep in it at night and sleep,
00:53:07.480
put the passenger seats down and the driver's seat down and sleep in there.
00:53:43.300
Like she would sit in the fucking driver's seat and literally like,
00:53:58.660
And it would just start to droop down and you'd be in the backseat with like a roof,
00:54:22.820
We've reached that part of the show that nobody ever skips.
00:54:32.360
Lucy's tobacco free gum pouches and breakers are intelligent nicotine options for upstanding,
00:54:42.720

00:54:58.900

00:56:04.980
You know what movie I saw the other day that I really liked was
00:56:25.560
I'd go back and like just do a deep dive on all Jim Carrey movies
00:56:33.480
I won my fifth grade talent show doing Jim Carrey impressions.
00:58:15.980
even though I feel like it's getting a little wild west,
00:58:48.920
is there a movie that you've been thinking about,
00:59:35.340
but I have like the next couple ideas cooking right now.
00:59:48.320
and then as soon as we are not striking any longer,
00:59:53.460
I'll flop on into that movie studio and pitch my wares.
01:00:09.620
but sometimes if the idea is like too weird that you feel like the executive wouldn't be able to,
01:00:19.200
I w we would just write it and then go sell it.
01:00:27.420
you understand the movie when I write it to you.
01:00:31.600
You could just pitch that idea and they'll buy that idea.
01:00:41.760
Are you just waiting to see if you can do it again?
01:00:47.360
He wants to do another couple of seasons of it.
01:01:07.280
Like I remember when me and the workaholics guys,
01:01:11.060
when we were still doing like internet sketch stuff,
01:01:19.760
He like knew an agent that slipped him a DVD of the foot fist way.
01:01:50.360
we were writing sketches together and we would write every Wednesday and try to shoot something every weekend.
01:02:24.120
since he does like these big characters and his movies are like big and broad.
01:02:40.500
that sort of changed our idea of like what we were doing.
01:02:43.860
Cause we were playing like more characters or doing like,
01:02:54.340
like that was the start of like trying to do sketches where I'm Adam,
01:03:06.040
You guys being yourselves just in an environment.
01:03:10.500
It's kind of the same thing that happened with me for podcasts.
01:03:19.240
And we were interviewing celebrities and stuff and talking about like celebrity stuff.
01:03:30.100
And it was kind of a struggle for me cause I didn't know that much about celebrities.
01:03:37.360
then I went on Joe Rogan's show and I left out of there one day and I was like,
01:03:46.820
I just need to be in a place where I can just talk.
01:03:49.760
I think that's when comics really start to find their rhythm,
01:03:58.180
I feel like every comic starts this way where they just,
01:04:01.640
they have their top five comics and they try to be like a version of them.
01:04:06.320
Instead of just doing like what makes you funny.
01:04:13.760
do you feel like you impersonated anybody a little bit?
01:04:15.980
I know that I remember showing a tape to a guy one time I was doing like a year and he's like,
01:04:19.820
this is great if you're like a Mitch Hedberg impersonator.
01:04:26.000
I bet I was doing like some Tosh or like trying to be like Swartzen or,
01:04:35.140
And I love how he like plays with the levels of his voice,
01:04:40.740
But I can see that now you say it a little bit.
01:04:46.160
And then I think like when you start to find your voices,
01:04:50.580
obviously like Chris Farley's like an influence of mine and Jack Blackson,
01:05:06.160
And a lot of that was from watching foot fist way and being like,
01:05:14.340
they're doing a character from a real place that they can access and not,
01:05:21.740
on your 30th movie is when you can stretch and,
01:05:29.340
it's like Tom Hanks didn't start off doing like,
01:05:54.520
Like we just interviewed Ric Flair and he talks and he,
01:06:02.260
Ric Flair will text me every year for my birthday.
01:06:21.800
or some of his things that you know him from their amalgamation of other people.
01:06:29.100
it's not any talking out of shop and he kind of like fine tuned them,
01:06:35.300
it's also like the generation of comics that you come up with.
01:06:41.020
you all are like kind of taking from each other,
01:07:03.780
talking like this person or being like that person,
01:07:09.440
And some of it's paying homage to them in some type of a way,
01:07:14.380
as long as you're not stealing like their jokes or like fully,
01:07:22.240
If I like get your exact same hair and I started like doing like your type of material,
01:07:32.920
if I demanded to be held back in the sixth grade,
01:07:48.340
it's crazy that people just let their kids go through all the gray,
01:07:51.280
like hold your kid back one year and make him a fucking legend.
01:08:00.800
I've said on multiple podcasts that he was my bully.
01:08:19.280
he says that you were his bully and that you really picked on him when you were a kid.
01:08:24.280
But this was the kid that he like failed a grade in like fourth grade or whatever.
01:08:57.820
I just like fucking whacked him and then would run away.
01:09:12.220
And then my dad just gave me the go ahead to be a violent little fuck.
01:09:20.240
I thought you were my bully and I was trying to stand up for myself.
01:09:49.260
how perfect are you guys going to make the pitch?
01:10:23.940
And like just being a song and dance man in Germany,
01:10:55.160
Cause to go stay in Germany for four months is pretty,
01:10:58.420
but do you have to work every single day or do you actually have some free time?
01:11:01.920
I worked a lot on that one because I was the lead of it and it's like a song and dance show.
01:11:12.520
I have to go record songs and I have to like learn choreography and shit.
01:11:27.480
Somebody almost ran over my girlfriend with a bike over there.
01:11:41.080
but I don't remember enough to say anything else.
01:11:52.640
but like also like kind of cool in a weird way.
01:11:59.020
which is like the cool club where like everyone wears like leather.
01:12:08.820
And he's like a 65 year old man who's just like,
01:12:12.160
you're supposed to just piss on him when you see him.
01:12:51.120
So it was like COVID was just starting to like wind down,
01:12:59.000
they all opened and we were getting sat at this nice restaurant,
01:14:09.700
it's hard not to look at porn with the piss pigging,
01:14:40.440
I'm hearing you can go around and you pay somebody and then you just urinate into them.
01:15:15.200
They have this awesome rooftop bar that we would eat dinner up there a lot of times.
01:15:21.780
And we were having drinks late one night and it was like,
01:15:29.700
they have dinner at like 11 and then they go to the clubs at like midnight one and then they stay there all night long.
01:15:35.180
And there's full on dudes in like leather straps with like their nipples like pierced and then a chain connecting,
01:15:46.560
And he's just full on sitting there eating a full rotisserie chicken.
01:15:59.560
There's a social media community of people drinking,
01:16:12.160
I'm going to give that a no to highlights from the urine therapy.
01:16:21.340
what's his name that you display for the Lakers?
01:16:58.640
Imagine your mom has like a little health kick,
01:17:34.500
feet in some urine and letting the dog lick him?
01:17:50.040
I feel anyone else's month old urine tastes exactly like beer.
01:18:02.520
Like you could just spend like $1 more and get beer that doesn't taste like month old
01:18:24.820
You guys post a lot of pictures and do a lot of fun stuff together.
01:18:55.300
I think I'm just going to put my kids all over.
01:19:14.420
I think a stalker would come to kids like stalkers.
01:19:35.980
you want some extra pumps of sugar-free vanilla.
01:19:50.500
But then when that dude shows up later in your living room and he's like,
01:19:58.880
that would almost be a crazy movie of like a unique stalker that like just shows.
01:20:06.240
He gives you one free thing and you don't even want it.
01:20:15.200
I didn't even want the egg white and ham sandwich that you,
01:20:30.540
stopped me after a show one time and asked her if I was leaving subliminal messages and
01:21:03.720
but this girl brought me a bunch of cupcakes to a show.
01:21:07.080
And this was like right when Workaholics was taking off.
01:21:17.920
We had just rented this like cool house in the Hollywood Hills.
01:21:28.340
It was the first cupcake I bit into chunk of her hair,
01:21:51.600
Cause I want to be able to eat baked goods from fans.
01:22:23.840
Somebody had been doing like duty in the meat or whatever,
01:22:34.380
and I know people say this happened in our town,
01:22:44.400
People were throwing bricks through the window.
01:23:05.960
So people were literally like a guy who was working there.
01:23:15.740
I don't think anybody's going to frown at half a pound of,
01:23:32.780
But that's where that really happened in our town,
01:23:35.020
and it's unfortunate that that kind of stuff happened,
01:23:47.340
I remember one night I got out of my buddy's piss van with the sunglasses.
01:23:51.380
They woke me up cause we stopped at Taco Bell and I got out and I went to live with this
01:23:56.800
other family in high school and I get out and they were there and I was like,
01:24:00.260
you ever be so high and you see some people that you're like,
01:24:02.880
I'm not supposed to see these people when I'm high.
01:24:43.620
they're just wanting to talk to me about stuff and like career stuff,
01:25:17.900
I might have just smoked a joint in which case I'm going to,
01:25:29.020
they deserve to hear something from you every now and then.
01:25:33.000
read a little bit of this stuff that I wrote and you just read like the
01:25:43.200
They would love you using their time like that.
01:27:02.180
I guess it depends on what kind of woman you're into.
01:27:27.420
He would come to school the first day of school and then go back to like being like a model or superhero.
01:28:08.500
Where it had like a little thing to like put your hammer.
01:28:19.460
But then you bring a hammer and hit somebody with it.
01:28:23.200
Suddenly you have to go to in school detention.
01:28:37.660
I don't know why my mom was being such a goddamn bitch about buying me these jeans for $28 lady.
01:28:58.340
I'm trying to think of what other big clothes was popular and probably.
01:29:07.200
you wanted people to know from like across the room that you do not possess any fear.
01:29:35.960
I feel like you might've had some money if you rocked a Mossimo shirt.
01:29:52.460
but then like the way they was like blurred vision.
01:29:59.320
I would always end up living with buddies and so I would use their shit,
01:30:19.160
I'd wear my backpack on the front and the halls.
01:31:11.080
the hemp necklaces that had like a little silver balls in the hemp.
01:31:23.620
and make them like not do my homework and just make hemp necklaces.
01:31:40.480
I was just like all about like hacky sacking and making hemp necklaces.
01:31:56.860
can you believe I fucking caught it right here?
01:32:06.200
Or it was just like one girl was just like a mouthful of braces.
01:32:14.280
There was nothing better and worse than the hacky sack circle.
01:32:17.460
There was always like two kids that didn't even know how to speak.
01:32:24.640
or it's just like the nerdy kid who like never played any sports.
01:32:28.260
And then he just appears in the hacky sack circle.
01:33:02.760
but he broke out and did Michael Jackson one time in the cafeteria and shocked the world.
01:33:13.060
he like is setting up his drum kit and you're like,
01:33:21.220
this is just a little something that I like to do when I'm at home.
01:34:04.580
he just set the bar for what none of us could be.
01:34:18.020
Would hang out with like college kids when we were freshmen in high school.
01:34:41.020
And these kids were going to just beat my ass and they were older.
01:35:14.600
the fucking crew parts and Mike McCoy comes through and he's like,
01:35:44.960
There's ways that people can use their cool that they don't realize sometimes,
01:35:54.900
he's in the military in a bad-ass fashion somehow.
01:35:58.880
but like there's photos of him like jumping out of helicopters,
01:36:06.180
we had this kid named Nathaniel and he told everybody like he was an undercover cop or
01:36:46.100
We hope you're enjoying your Air Canada flight.
01:36:56.940
Fast free wifi means I can make dinner reservations before we land.
01:37:11.460
Wi-Fi available to airplane members on equipped flights sponsored by Bell conditions apply.
01:37:27.180
I guess you have to talk about it with your spouse.
01:37:35.920
And that takes like a few months to get out of your system.
01:37:46.560
there can't be too much of a plan because like it's life,
01:37:53.780
then you're going to have like a homie that you like have to take care of.
01:38:02.760
And like to go this long without having to take care of a little homie is,
01:38:10.180
they had kids like Blake and honors had kids almost a decade ago now.
01:38:15.320
So they already have like true little people that they take care of that are like
01:38:25.720
like I feel like I also have a whole other group of friends that haven't yet.
01:38:45.280
like I know what I can pass on and what there was a point where I was like,
01:38:56.160
I have to do all these things to get to the place that I want to be.
01:39:01.100
like I could set up a movie and I'm confident enough that I'll get another
01:39:49.240
Z like that is more important than this right now.
01:39:57.800
pick and choose a little more than I used to be able to.
01:40:03.260
I bet it's the same with the podcast world that you've built.
01:40:15.520
just knowing that your standup was really taking off.
01:40:21.140
did your special come out and like kind of blew you up?
01:40:24.140
Cause I think I was gearing up to do my Netflix special and you were like,
01:40:45.880
it's interesting to have so many different people in here.
01:40:47.920
It's interesting that it almost gave everybody else a different Hollywood or a lot of people,
01:41:06.620
what I think is cool about podcasts is it's like,
01:41:09.240
it just gives people an opportunity to go like,
01:41:17.420
Just off the cuff or do they have to like write everything down?
01:41:20.880
It just gives them a opportunity to peek behind the curtain of like,
01:41:24.220
what is kind of like to sit in the back of a comedy club with,
01:41:32.000
And it's not like we would sit down and have like an hour long conversation in the back of a comedy club
01:41:50.900
It's nice to be able to see where somebody's career is at,
01:41:53.020
how some things have kind of happened for them.
01:41:56.480
I've started to realize that sometimes when I sit down with someone to podcast,
01:41:59.700
it may be the only time I'm going to get to talk to them for a while.
01:42:03.480
to sort of really try and make the time have some,
01:42:20.960
at some point you're going to go out and play with your friends.
01:42:26.180
And that'll be the last time you played with your friends in your childhood.
01:42:31.460
And it's sort of the same with like comics where we all kind of were in the same circles when we were starting out at the comedy store,
01:42:43.240
and you just see the same people over and over and over and over and over again.
01:42:46.500
And then all of a sudden something happens in someone's career and it takes them this way or that way.
01:42:54.100
Cause it's probably been years since I've seen you.
01:42:58.960
It's cool for the podcast world to be able to sit down with people that you respect and like,
01:43:05.340
and have conversations with them and get to catch up with,
01:43:10.620
even if you only ever saw them for 15 minutes in the back of comedy clubs once a week.
01:43:22.200
Was there anything else that we were looking at in the news that was interesting?
01:43:29.380
they just tweeted this photo last night of Elon Musk is training for his fight with Mark Zuckerberg.
01:43:40.440
it will be entertaining regardless of how good of a fight it is.
01:43:45.380
I thought I read something about how Elon Musk's mom doesn't want him to fight and came out and said like the fight is canceled.
01:44:02.920
what is being used as like a ploy to push something.
01:44:37.500
I think he's going to defeat a guy that's weaker.
01:44:39.940
and also Elon isn't known for being like a fighter at all.
01:45:09.940
you can see that he's writing an algorithm with his fucking eyes,
01:46:02.900
I think it's just getting interesting in the world.
01:46:04.440
This is the type of stuff you're starting to see.
01:46:05.980
And we talked about this years ago about everything becoming WWE,
01:46:13.760
Jake Paul and Nate Diaz are going to fight you.
01:46:26.800
It sort of feels like hunger games or some shit.
01:46:36.560
where the two richest men in the world just duke it out.
01:46:50.800
And then we could like be at staple center fighting when it used to be like,
01:46:57.940
you would like have to go through training for it.
01:47:01.660
It'd just be like me and you were like similarly built.
01:48:43.600
and we need a good female bout on the card too.
01:49:08.500
like a wind chime that'll beat the fuck out of some music.
01:49:21.660
or do you think we covered a lot of neat stuff?
01:49:31.520
we couldn't really look it up because it is pretty pornographic.
01:49:35.380
And I have the blockers too on my phone and computer.
01:49:45.960
what do consumers need to think about when they go watch stuff like,
01:49:49.320
and how it affects what other movies are going to be created?
01:49:52.620
Because I feel like that's starting to become like,
01:49:55.880
but with only so many comedies being created last year,
01:50:02.520
and luckily like Netflix is one of the places that is just willing to roll the
01:50:07.740
than other places because it matters so much less.
01:50:18.620
the fact that they put both of those movies out on the same weekend,
01:50:24.240
you're putting down six movies all year long and then you put two of them
01:50:32.960
And then when those movies only make $8 million or whatever opening weekend,
01:50:41.920
And then that's a healthy amount for it to make,
01:50:54.400
and then we'll have the opportunity to make more of them.
01:51:07.060
there used to be like 40 shots and making a good comedy.
01:51:10.520
And then maybe two or three of them were a classic comedy.
01:51:19.320
there was 28 other movies that weren't old school that came out that year.
01:51:24.240
So the more opportunities we have to make classic comedies,
01:51:32.900
has a potential to be one of those type of movies.
01:51:38.720
do you start to think of do creating a movie entirely of your own,
01:51:47.300
Does that ever start to become a discussable model?
01:51:53.280
just cause it's the movies I want to make are usually like action comedies and
01:52:01.360
Like I don't have $30 million of my own money to invest.
01:52:14.900
Like that's where people forget like buying TV commercials to play during
01:52:20.820
And like things that people are actually watching live.
01:52:27.420
radio commercials and like to get the word out there.
01:52:33.540
we were going to do a workaholics movie and we were five weeks out from
01:52:58.140
We have a new global agenda and we don't feel that workaholics fits the
01:53:31.640
I can't imagine if you're going to find a brand that people love.
01:53:38.080
that they would not think that that would have an audience.
01:53:42.400
I did get to write a really funny press release though,
01:53:57.920
he's very butthurt that the Paramount Plus canceled the workaholics movie.
01:54:12.280
we want to do like a spinoff show that you guys executive produce.
01:54:19.680
Like we want your brand of comedy to live on Paramount Plus.
01:54:26.220
Like we have a home base that we could just go to.
01:54:56.420
It just shows you how hard it is to get something path.
01:55:01.140
it's almost like if it doesn't have global power,
01:55:12.460
I've been up the Amazon and we stayed in a little hut.
01:55:19.460
was like in charge of feeding us his teenage son,
01:55:24.820
I've been in Germany just like walking along the fucking Berlin wall.
01:55:30.520
And people are stopping me saying they'd love workaholics.
01:55:42.300
it wasn't like a hundred million dollar Marvel movie.
01:55:45.840
I feel like they're really trying to figure out what they're doing over there at Paramount Plus.
01:55:53.900
it feels so weird to know is how people who are making the choices don't,
01:55:57.240
don't have a real understanding of what's going on or what they,
01:56:01.040
or what the zeitgeist of like people think is funny is.
01:56:07.460
cause comedy central hit and it was people of a certain age,
01:56:13.280
just got out of college or we're still in high school or like maybe even a little bit older than that.
01:56:20.520
that was just like me when I was in college or kids that were younger that were like,
01:56:29.360
I hope me and my friends still live with each other and party,
01:56:33.720
and then I think like they're like people who had kids that were the right age know about workaholics.
01:56:47.880
the guys that are in charge now didn't have their kids were too young.
01:57:43.660
But that was probably one of the craziest requests that I've gotten.
01:58:10.880
he was swinging it like a rope in the fucking park.
