He stands 33 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:31,200 Speaker 2: up for two hours a night and tells jokes. Ah, 34 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 2: is there a go fun me? Can we help this 35 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 2: poor preacher? It's like it's such a joyful thing. My 36 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: issue with life is work is more fun than fun. 37 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: Like if I have a night off, what am I doing? 38 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 2: I'm sitting at home, Adam Mattie. If they come out 39 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 2: and do a show, It's such a joyful thing, and 40 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: so much of it is kind of interactive as well 41 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: these days, Like I write the show like I bother 42 00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: writing the jokes and go, look, that's a solid sort 43 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 2: of two hundred jokes in a row. I've got a 44 00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: good fastball, like a short, punchy joke, right. I like 45 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: the chatting to people and traveling the world. It's just 46 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 2: it's joyful. So I work as much as I possibly can. 47 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 2: I also think I do have a propensity to get 48 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: canceled once in a while, so you never know when 49 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,360 Speaker 2: your last one's going to be. 50 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: What's your read on being canceled at the moment? I 51 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: feel the times they are are changing and we're returning 52 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: to a level of normality. Is that fear or not? 53 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:28,480 Speaker 2: I think it was always pretty normal. I think we 54 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 2: came up with a new word, a a new phrase, 55 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: and it was something to hang a newspaper story on. 56 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 2: But there was always the thing of like you got dragged. 57 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 2: It used to be called getting dragged in the papers sometimes. 58 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 2: I mean, the worst it ever gets for me is 59 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: sometimes I tell a joke and some people don't like it. 60 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 2: You've got to right size that, right, You've got to 61 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 2: see it in people real problems in the world, and 62 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,799 Speaker 2: I'm not for everyone and edgy jokes. There's you know, 63 00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:00,079 Speaker 2: there's there's limits on it. You know, sometimes it's not 64 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 2: for everyone, so I respect that it's part of the 65 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 2: part of the job. But the whole cancel culture thing 66 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 2: is you go well as long as you don't get 67 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 2: canceled by your own audience. I think your golden it's 68 00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 2: not the new burning books, I think, and it's actually 69 00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 2: it's something that I think we miss in our culture 70 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 2: is the there's like we shouldn't have laws saying what 71 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,359 Speaker 2: we can and what we can't say. I'm a big 72 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 2: advocate for freedom of speech. It should never be you 73 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:32,240 Speaker 2: can't say that. But what we're missing is a muffn't couldn't. 74 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: Agree with you more. As far as your jokesphuse I 75 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,839 Speaker 1: watched the other day. There's big picture is that I've 76 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 1: only seen one correct me if I'm wrong. I think 77 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 1: there's only one out. Has that gone well? 78 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 2: I mean I think so that the check didn't bounce. 79 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 2: What do you want from me? That was like we 80 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 2: did a fun Netflix has got a YouTube channel called 81 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: Netflix is a Joke, and I think they wanted to 82 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 2: do some original content for that, so they asked me 83 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 2: to do a podcast. Very nice and it was kind 84 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 2: of me and some friends got together people pitch me 85 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: movie ideas and we can't. It's sort of like a 86 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 2: I don't I do a lot of improv with the audience. 87 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: I don't often get to do improv with other comics 88 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 2: one on one. Normally it's on panel shows and things. 89 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: So it's a really fun thing to do. So there's 90 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 2: some fun episodes of it. I mean, judge for yourself. 91 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: There's so much content out there now. I sort of 92 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 2: think if you see something that you're not enjoying, it's 93 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 2: your fault. 94 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. 95 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,160 Speaker 2: Like's if you watch anything you don't enjoy for more 96 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,359 Speaker 2: than five minutes, it's really byer beware. 97 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. I couldn't agree more. See, that's why I'm asking 98 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: the question because I'm looking at the first episode and 99 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: it's it's because you've got to show with your jokes, 100 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 1: and yes, you interact with the audience, and I get 101 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 1: all of that, but you know where you're eight, You 102 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: know where your starting point is, your funny lines, your hive, 103 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: your arc, whatever you want to call it. This big 104 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 1: pitch thing. You're working hard, You're sort of you're improving 105 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: with the guests the whole way. It seemed like hard work, 106 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 1: fun but hard work. 107 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,520 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think kind of it's you're in 108 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: that mind space. It's a really fun thing. It's a 109 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 2: really fun thing to kind of be able to turn 110 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: that on and be you know, kind of spontaneous and 111 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: funny and kind of I don't know. I think funny 112 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 2: is a lot of the time. I don't know how 113 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: you would define comedy. I think probably the best I 114 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 2: could do for you is to say it's deviation from expectations. 115 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 1: That's not about what comedy. 116 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: Is, right, Yeah, it's a it's a everything's a misdirect. 117 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: So when you get into that framework where you're seeing 118 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 2: the world like that, so whenever something comes up, you're 119 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 2: kind of you're messing around, you're giving your mind something 120 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 2: to do. So for me, it's been very much kind 121 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 2: of the antidote to anxiety. I think this is the 122 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 2: way I think about mental health. I think, right, depression 123 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,800 Speaker 2: is when you're thinking about the past, and anxieties when 124 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 2: you think about the future. And I've got a propensity 125 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 2: to be a little bit anxious. I worry about things 126 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,119 Speaker 2: that haven't happened yet, but it's almost like there aren't 127 00:05:57,200 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 2: enough problems for me to worry about, so I get 128 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 2: ahead of myself and actually, if I've got jokes and 129 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 2: things to do and stuff to think about writing, it 130 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 2: takes care of that. I just kind of busy myself 131 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 2: with it. It's interesting, seems to be for me to 132 00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 2: kind of secure for anxiety. 133 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: Because I watched a bit of the you know, the 134 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: Ellis and Heymann thing. I don't know when that was, 135 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: was that last week end or the weekend before, and 136 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: you talked a bit about depression and stuff like that, 137 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: so that it seems to be almost medicinal. Is that 138 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: what you were trying to say? 139 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think so. I think it's a really healthy 140 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: way to be and everything that people are interested in 141 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 2: doing right, whether it's coming to see a comedy show 142 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 2: live or going to see a big rock concert or 143 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 2: a play or a football match, people want to go 144 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 2: and watch play and it's performative going to see stuff. 145 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,560 Speaker 2: The illusion is the person on stage is the only 146 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 2: person playing, but everyone's playing. We're playing a role in that. 147 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,840 Speaker 2: It's a performative thing to go and see a show, 148 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: and that seems to be the thing that we lose 149 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 2: as we get older. People play less and getting in 150 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 2: that headspace where you're playing is just for any job. 151 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter how serious your job is. 152 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: That does cis dubtail into that for you. So in 153 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,560 Speaker 1: other words, do you need to be successful or is 154 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 1: the therapy, if you like, just in the performance itself. 155 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean I think that thing about going, 156 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: how do how do you judge success? You know, I 157 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: think that thing about what's your metric? Who are you 158 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 2: judging against?

Because I'm watching you 178 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: on You've got your own YouTube channel. You mentioned Joe Rogan, 179 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: so I saw some of that that was three hours long. 180 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean that's a how do you sit 181 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 1: and talk to somebody for three hours? 182 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 2: Well, it's very easy to talk to Joe because he's 183 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,280 Speaker 2: got Actually, my friend Chris Williamson came up with this 184 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 2: theory of reverse charisma. Okay, No, Joe's got a lot 185 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 2: of natural charisma, very charismatic on stage. Reverse charisma. Right, 186 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 2: you could spend all your time trying to be a brilliant, 187 00:08:41,760 --> 00:08:46,600 Speaker 2: interesting person, or you could take interest in other people. 188 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,439 Speaker 2: Joe's genuinely, He's incredibly interested in other people and how 189 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:54,079 Speaker 2: they work and what they think. He just naturally has that, 190 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 2: and it's kind of reverse charisma. And actually, when you 191 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:00,080 Speaker 2: come away from the conversation, like sometimes people like they 192 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 2: try and show off, right, So in the conversation they're 193 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 2: trying to be the smartest guy. Actually he's not. He's 194 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: always trying to come away from the conversation and you 195 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: feel like you're the smartest person in the room after 196 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 2: speaking to him for three and a half hours. 197 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a talent. I've heard that before. The reason 198 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 1: I asked that question. So you got your own YouTube channel, 199 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 1: you talked to Joe Rogan, You're on Netflix, you're on Amazon. 200 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 1: You do all that sort of stuff, getting too in 201 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: the cargol on a plane, catching a cab, staying in 202 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: a hotel, then slipping up the road to Warmoru to 203 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 1: christ due to do it. That's hard work. Well, where's 204 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 1: where's the joy in that? 205 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 2: For you? Well? I mean for that, it's like I 206 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,680 Speaker 2: always think, I slightly think not to be not that 207 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 2: I've now said the narcissism of small differences. But I 208 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 2: sometimes look at other comics and they think they've been 209 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: to New Zealand, and I go, oh, you told New Zealand. 210 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 2: Oh great, And then I try and have a conversation 211 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 2: about Napier or dun Eden and they go, no, no, 212 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: I had one night in Auckland, and I go, oh, 213 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 2: you missed it, and you missed a great time because 214 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: if you get out there and see it all, it's 215 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,480 Speaker 2: you know, you've got to travel. We've got to get 216 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 2: to the places. And there's people that like me enough 217 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: to come and see me. If I come to their town, 218 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 2: you know, they're not booking a hotel and I'm not 219 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 2: Taylor Swift. Maybe there's an environmental angle as well. If 220 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 2: I travel, you don't have. 221 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: To Yeah, that is true. That is true as well. Well. 222 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: It's also that thing of like sometimes sometimes in the 223 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 2: big towns as well. I'm playing New York this month. 224 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: I just played La in the big towns. People are 225 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: the options.
