75
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 5: the fattest man in the world, fourteen hundred pounds. Ladies

76
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,719

77
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,119
Speaker 5: have a salad here, do something. I used to feel

78
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,080
Speaker 5: bad talking about the guy, you know what I mean.

79
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,920
Speaker 5: I used to think maybe I would offend somebody in

80
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,480
Speaker 5: the audience, But then I thought about it. You could

81
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 5: be in the audience. You could weigh a thousand pounds

82
00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 5: and still go, he's not talking about me. If this

83
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 5: is a man with a serious weight problem, I've got

84
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 5: it under control.

85
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 3: Take off a couple hundred pounds.

86
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 5: But you realize, two hundred pounds on this guy doesn't

87
00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 5: even make a dad.

88
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 3: And if you were a friend of his, what would

89
00:04:58,360 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 3: you say to him?

90
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,080

00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 2: case here? Nige, Does Louis c K have a chance

104
00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 2: to knock off Jerry Seinfeld?

105
00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: Two very different comedians. I feel Louis ck tell stories

106
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, and Seinfeld tells more jokes, and

107
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 1: like they tell jokes, I think Seinfeld is going to win.

108
00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 1: He's a bigger name than Louis c K. Has a huge.

109
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,800
Speaker 2: Could be a generational thing, like the younger brothers might

110
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 2: go Louis c K. Yes, and like the gen xers

111
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 2: and the boomers are like, Jerry's my guy.

112
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: To this day, I still fall asleep to Seinfeld on Netflix.

113
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: Just hit play all hit the sleep timer and I

114
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 1: will my personal preference Seinfeld, But I don't want to

115
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: influence people. Louis c K is a genius, yes, and

116
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 1: he's made a meteoric comeback after his controversy. He was

117
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 1: in the me Too movie, The Me Too Thing.

118
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,400
