So technically that was the start of this 29 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 3: year's tour. But domestically, yeah, this is our first stop. 30 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,160 Speaker 1: So you're saying we won't be the slumpbuster, like it'll 31 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 1: be good to go or not.

I think that people outside of DC 42 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 1: don't realize how much the District's done for comedy. I mean, 43 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy's done specials here, Chris Rock Chappelle. 44 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 2: You see. 45 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: Is it because of the comedy aspect of it, just 46 00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: because you love the city itself, or it's a little 47 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: bit of both. 48 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 3: It's both, man, It is such a great comedy city. 49 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,680 Speaker 3: Like the audiences in DC are always front from the 50 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 3: small all twenty seat rooms all the way up to 51 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 3: the arenas, like it's always it's always a good time. 52 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: But I also just I love the city. 53 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 3: I love the history of it, I love I love 54 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 3: the aesthetic of I love the monuments, I love the museums. 55 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:17,239 Speaker 3: I love that I can bird scooter around the entire 56 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 3: city like it. It's so much fun for me. People 57 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 3: get so wrapped up into politics. I just I just 58 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 3: don't do it. I don't pay attention to politics. I 59 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: know that probably sounds irresponsible, but shut up about politics 60 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 3: for an hour out of your day. We're alive for 61 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 3: eighty years. Go find something else to harp on. Just 62 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,320 Speaker 3: enjoy yourself for a little bit. There's so much more 63 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,640 Speaker 3: to DC than just what's going on in the White House. 64 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: Well it's funny, I do. I've done stam up on 65 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 1: the side. No big deal, not to your level. But 66 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,760 Speaker 1: I do think that the best part about comedy is 67 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 1: there's somebody having the worst day of their life. Your 68 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,399 Speaker 1: goals to make them forget about that for five fifteen 69 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: an hour, and like talking about the stuff that's making 70 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: everybody anxious is not gonna make people forget about their 71 00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: actual problems. 72 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, Tom Man, that's why you go out there. 73 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 3: You be an equal opportunity offender. You make fun of everybody, 74 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: You treat everybody normal. You know, if and like you said, 75 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 3: if you can make somebody forget that they have cerebral 76 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,399 Speaker 3: palsy for an hour out of the night, I think 77 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 3: that's the main goal, right, no matter what you're going through, 78 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 3: come out and just have an idle laughs. 79 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:18,720 Speaker 1: Well, and that's what I like about yourself. Obviously that 80 00:03:18,800 --> 00:03:21,240 Speaker 1: the special you're a great writer, but I know the 81 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: crowd work stuff is what took off. But in the 82 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: crowd work, which is sometimes poking fund the audience, it 83 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 1: is equal opportunity. I think what you've shown is those 84 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: folks that might have a disability just want to be 85 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,839 Speaker 1: trigger everybody else's. They want you not to make fun 86 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 1: of them because they're whatever. It's like, I want to 87 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: be part of the show too, And I think you 88 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: find a way to do it where you can tell 89 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,560 Speaker 1: you genuinely care about that person and join themselves if 90 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: that makes sense. Like I said, they're not at the 91 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: by the joke, they're they're part of the joke. 92 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you, man, I'm a great actor. I love that. 93 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 3: That that's how it comes across. No, no, no, bro, 94 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 3: That's that's entirely the point, right, Like the most one 95 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: of the most important things in all of humanity is context, 96 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 3: And I feel like that's a word that nobody even 97 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 3: cares about anymore. 98 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: You can't communicate without context. 99 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 3: The context is we're at a comedy show, or a 100 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 3: clown is standing on stage and he just wants to 101 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 3: make you laugh. You should never be offended by anything 102 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 3: that happens at a comedy show because it's just a joke. 103 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 3: We're just there to I'm trying to make your day better. 104 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 2: That's my only intention. 105 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 3: That is the context of the environment, so people can 106 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 3: come out with no matter what they're dealing with. I mean, 107 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 3: people are dealing with deaths of family members, work trauma, 108 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 3: family drama, health problems, maybe they have a disability of 109 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,280 Speaker 3: some kind, no matter what it is, this is supposed 110 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:37,160 Speaker 3: to be a safe place where not supposed to matter 111 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 3: for the next hour out of your life. Like, just 112 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 3: let it be the let it be the release. That's 113 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 3: what it is for me. 114 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 1: Well, the beauty is if you don't like the joke, 115 00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,599 Speaker 1: there's probably the oother one coming that might be more 116 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: like your style as opposed to it's like oh yeah, 117 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: like this, why it's over.

I think that you help comedy 127 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 1: so much because it gave unfunny dudes confidence kind of 128 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,360 Speaker 1: when I get confidence a circase so leigh that I 129 00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:18,039 Speaker 1: can do trapeze, like I can do this easily, and 130 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: then not realize like, oh, these guys are practiced their 131 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: entire lives.
