00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 2: if we want to do it next year. You know

14
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

15
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 1: Does that make sense? Yes?

16
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,279
Speaker 2: When did I start.

17
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,839
Speaker 1: Knowing I was funny? I mean probably?

18
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 2: I remember in college I was working in journalism at

19
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,080
Speaker 2: that I was doing the news. I would do like

20
00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: the TV news for the school and they would they

21
00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: would have to do it on the teleprompter. They'd have

22
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 2: to type everything. This morning, three people were involved in

23
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 2: a wreck and he needed to read it exactly, and

24
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:07,319
Speaker 2: I was like, let me just like I go, just

25
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:09,399
Speaker 2: put the bullet points on it, and I like riff,

26
00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 2: and they're like, no, you can't guess that's not how

27
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,800
Speaker 2: the news works. And somebody's like, you should if you

28
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,280
Speaker 2: like to do that, you should try comedy. Should I

29
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:19,000
Speaker 2: stand up comedy?

30
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,600
Speaker 1: Now? Is that the first time you heard that?

31
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 2: That's the first time ever. I mean I like comedy

32
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 2: growing up. I like loved Kings of Comedy, of Kat Williams,

33
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: all all those guys, Tim Hawkins, Brian Reagan, but I

34
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: never thought about to do it to Like I liked

35
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 2: to watch Jay Leno, and I asked my dad when

36
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: he took me to tour colleges. He just, what do

37
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 2: you want to do? And I go, if I could

38
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:42,959
Speaker 2: do anything, I go, I want to be Jay Leno.

39
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: What do you say?

40
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 2: I mean, He's like, well, let's look into let's look

41
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: into pre law. Yeah, they're like I remember I called

42
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 2: my parents and told him Mike was quitting my job

43
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 2: to become a comedian. That wasn't that wasn't there proud

44
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 2: as day that we're not happy about that?

45
00:01:59,480 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 1: Man?

46
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 3: So many questions, I guess, first, how did you even

47
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 3: learn about those guys? I mean, you grew up a

48
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 3: pretty pretty strict household, Arry, right, so how did you

49
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,200
Speaker 3: even learn.

50
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 1: About Jay Leno?

51
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:13,880
Speaker 2: Okay, well, yeah, that's the only I guess I didn't

52
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 2: want to. I don't want to host a late night show.

53
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 2: But that was the only guy I knew that was

54
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 2: doing comedy for a job. Sure, I got that well

55
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 2: cause I heard he would be like in high school,

56
00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 2: Like towards the end of high school, we got a TV.

57
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,600
Speaker 2: It's like we didn't have it. We were homes school.

58
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,080
Speaker 2: We have a TV growing up in eighth grade I

59
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 2: went to private school, and then probably tenth grade, we

60
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:34,240
Speaker 2: got a TV.

61
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:34,600
Speaker 1: In my house.

62
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 2: So then, I mean I didn't live on a rock.

63
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 2: I knew about things. But I go that guy does

64
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,800
Speaker 2: that every year about you know Bill Cosby or you

65
00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 2: know Cedric the entertainer. Like, I don't think they do

66
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 2: it for a job. I've seen their like comedy, I

67
00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:57,239
Speaker 2: don't know what I've seen them their VHS tapes or whatever.

68
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:58,679
Speaker 2: That's not it can't be a job.

69
00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: It's like letting off steam.

70
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 2: Aside from yeah, he probably has like a nine to

71
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,839
Speaker 2: five and then he goes to the thing yeah yeah, yeah,

72
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: or like but I didn't know that was even impossible.

73
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 2: And then I remember going, I if I could do anything,

74
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 2: I could be a stand up comedian. And then it

75
00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 2: was kind of comedy. It's weird now that comedy is such.

76
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:22,520
Speaker 2: It was it's so like mainstream like you see comics

77
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 2: at like the Inauguration is wild.

78
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 1: Is wild?

79
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 2: Comedy was and always still kind of is like a

80
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,640
Speaker 2: like an outside of like these guys don't fit in,

81
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:41,160
Speaker 2: these guys are critiquing, these guys aren't part of the culture.

82
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 2: It's always like kind of a like an underground type

83
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 2: situation like I would. I remember I saw The Kings

84
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 2: of Comedy. First of all, me my high school best friend,

85
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 2: snuck into the theater to see Martin Lawrence run till

86
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: that it was like his comedy special in two thousand

87
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,080
Speaker 2: and two. We had to sneak out to see it

88
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: was it was r rated because it language. And then

89
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,600
Speaker 2: my college roommate he snuck The Kings of Comedy in

90
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 2: two our and we watch that on DVD. And then

91
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 2: Kat Williams again, somebody like snuck. It was always it

92
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 2: was always comedy was always kind of like that, yeah,

93
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,919
Speaker 2: or like comedy is not I never knew about anyone

94
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: doing it for a family or like that didn't make

95
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 2: sense to me. I never heard of that.

96
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 3: Well, it's weird because you you mentioned in your book

97
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:34,360
Speaker 3: that like when that people need comedy only when they're

98
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 3: trying to forget about the problems in their life.

99
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: Basically is what you said. Yeah.

100
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, and so if comedy now you're making the argument

101
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 3: that it's becoming more mainstream, then you're also kind of

102
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 3: implying that lives are getting worse, right, Yeah, you know

103
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 3: what I mean?

104
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: Again, Say that again, let me think think about that. Yeah,

105
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 2: say that again.

106
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:57,159
Speaker 3: So if it once upon a time comedians only existed

107
00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 3: in a world where people needed to hear them to

108
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 3: forget things, they were kind of niche. But as it

109
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 3: grows and it's it's at the inauguration, yeah, then that

110
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 3: would mean that more and more people need to forget

111
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,919
Speaker 3: about the problem.

112
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

113
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,960
Speaker 2: Well yeah, well that's not a good sign. I guess

114
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: it's like alcohol, it's like a session proof.

115
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's right. Yeah.

116
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: I think I think like the idea that like comedians,

117
00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:29,040
Speaker 2: you like comedians are famous is is weird? Like that

118
00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:33,160
Speaker 2: there's I mean not even like the eighties nineties you

119
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 2: go like Larry the Cable Guy, Jeff Fox, where the

120
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 2: Jay Leno, like the guys there wasn't you would just

121
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,440
Speaker 2: go even in the early two thousands. You would just

122
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: go to the comedy club. You wouldn't look up who

123
00:05:44,040 --> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 2: was there. You would just go.

124
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, you wouldn't. It wouldn't right.

125
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 2: You would just go to comedy. Comedy was for everyone,

126
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,039
Speaker 2: so there was no You would just go to the

127
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 2: comedy club. And this guy was joking about everything, just

128
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:02,000
Speaker 2: like the Tonight Show is everybody now the Tonight Show is,

129
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,960
Speaker 2: you know, diminished in viewership, and there's like half a

130
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: million Tonight shows and podcasts. So people go, they rock

131
00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 2: with you, they go instead of watching Jimmy fallon, I'm

132
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 2: gonna come here for an hour. Yeah, and everybody, all

133
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 2: of us have like a little one five hundredth of it.

134
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 1: That's right.

135
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: And then people you walk through the airport, most people,

136
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:24,839
Speaker 2: I would say, don't know who you are with. The

137
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 2: people that do are like, oh Mike, yeah, they're saying

138
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,600
Speaker 2: with me, yeah, They're like, I can't believe because in

139
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,200
Speaker 2: their algorithm or world, you're the biggest thing. So it's

140
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:36,839
Speaker 2: weird because it's very strange.

141
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 3: And we have Samsung TV. Yeah, and so Amber and

142
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 3: I we're gonna watch a show at night, and when

143
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 3: you first turn it on, it like advertises itself and

144
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 3: comes up with whether Samsung TV has its own programming. Sure,

145
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 3: right now they're running Letterman, like old reruns from eighties

146
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,560
Speaker 3: and nineties, over and over and over, highlights, And so

147
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 3: I would turn it on. It would come on and

148
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:01,040
Speaker 3: I would find a shit. But then I would turn

149
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 3: on and kind of wait a little bit, find a show.

150
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 4: And now I'm like turning on and just sit there

151
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 4: and watch Letterman and they see what's going on here

152
00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,680
Speaker 4: and just remember Man. I like, it's such a flashback

153
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 4: to you know, to when I was younger, and that's

154
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 4: a different kind of comedy. And the guys that he

155
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 4: has on and they come, like when he has another

156
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 4: late night guy come on and sit next to him.

157
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 4: You could tell he said, you know, how, how's your day?

158
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 1: She was pretty good? You know Mom called this morning.

159
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 1: And you're like, oh, this is a bit. Oh he's

160
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: doing a thing.

161
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,720
Speaker 3: It's like, have you done any vacations lately, Letterman says,

Speaker 1: You know what's crazy about Disney.

166
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 2: Like, oh oh the comics would go into the thing. Yeah.

167
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 2: I think the that era of I think that's why

168
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: that era of like comedy is like people don't rock

169
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 2: with it anymore because you now a regular person. It's

170
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:53,680
Speaker 2: kind of like that's a he's doing a thing. He's

171
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 2: doing a thing, and I probably I bet if you know,

172
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 2: Tom Cruise or whatever would come on, he's probably same, Yeah,

173
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 2: but what's been going on? He goes, oh, yeah, they

174
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,880
Speaker 2: go prompt me with three or four things. Now the

175
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,640
Speaker 2: pros if he had one of his best buddies on there,

176
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 2: they were like, we got it, we can just yeah,

177
00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:17,200
Speaker 2: we got it. But or like Martin Short has been

178
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: on that show probably a thousand times. Yeah, he goes,

179
00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: we got it for someone brand new, They're like, you

180
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 2: got to help us.

181
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. It would be like you and you show up

182
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: and I go, John, how would your trip in?

Speaker 3: some tacos and and and there would just.

185
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 1: Be a thing.

186
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 2: You just sit quietly like I was just doing this bit.

187
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:37,199
Speaker 1: Yeah.

188
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 2: I think that era of comedy is like the I mean,

189
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,280
Speaker 2: I bet you probably saw it. No, I bet you

190
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 2: do see it in country where like the era of

191
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,080
Speaker 2: like and he's one of my favorites of like like

192
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:56,880
Speaker 2: the Brad Paisley era of like joke, you know, like

193
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: early two thousand that was awesome that and now country

194
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,079
Speaker 2: is more like in its feelings a little bit, a

195
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:07,520
Speaker 2: little bit more like you know, you got Zach Bryan Morgan,

196
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 2: guys talking about not their mental health but struggles in.

197
00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: A little ego.

198
00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 2: I feel like I know this guy versus the Keith

199
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:20,240
Speaker 2: Urbans versus, Like that guy's a character. Maybe does that

200
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 2: make sense?

201
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:23,720
Speaker 1: That makes sense? It does. I watched today this morning.

202
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 3: I watched to refresh myself on the transfer portal, the

203
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,640
Speaker 3: Country Music Transfer portal.

204
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, oh I should have put you in there.

205
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,960
Speaker 2: Yeah we lost are transferred out. Yeah, that's what I'm saying,

206
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 2: that we transferred out.

207
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

208
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 2: I think he's doing well. Yeah, he's transferred. He's transferred

209
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:40,960
Speaker 2: into Christianity.

210
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: Bro. Well yeah, so speaking up, there's like vividly remember

211
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 3: one time finding you as as the church planner in the.

212
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,680
Speaker 1: South to shovel. Oh yeah, planting a church.

213
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 3: You're like planting a church like this town really needs it.

214
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 3: And then you clearly see that there's a church.

215
00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 1: Right behind you. No, no, you know, pan the camera

216
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 1: this way and clearly there's a church over here.

217
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 2: There's like three churches.

218
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's never really needs that they're impoverished.

219
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,440
Speaker 3: And clearly there's a million doll neighborhood right right, and

220
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 3: that is.

221
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 1: The South Man.

222
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, well all of my I feel like when

223
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 2: I everybody sometimes, I mean for me, that's like a joke,

224
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 2: but not no, it's not. Yes, it's funny, but it's

225
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,439
Speaker 2: like framed in humor, but it's something that I all

226
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 2: my comedy is that I lay in bed at night

227
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,160
Speaker 2: ago this doesn't make sense and all and all the

228
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 2: three of those churches probably hate each other too, like

229
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 2: you're going over to Yeah.

230
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: Where do you stand with that?

231
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 3: Man?

232
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,040
Speaker 2: I say in my shows. I mean, my dad's a

233
00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 2: pastor for thirty years. I grew up in a Pentecostal church.

234
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 2: I say for this country that I have said this

235
00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 2: from the beginning, that the local churches our only hope.

236
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 2: I said, And I one time I had an idea.

237
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 2: I go, everybody should just GPS their church, and then

238
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,800
Speaker 2: all the people that live if you GPS the other

239
00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,080
Speaker 2: one right in the middle, whichever one you're closest to,

240
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: you're in charge of them. So I go mental health groceries,

241
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 2: kids rides to school, if there's a single parent house

242
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,439
Speaker 2: helping with the kid. That church is in charge of

243
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,440
Speaker 2: that radius until it gets to the other one and

244
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 2: then you go to them.

245
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:32,199
Speaker 1: Mhm.

246
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:34,079
Speaker 2: And I was like, maybe that would save the world.

247
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 1: But I don't know.

248
00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 2: There's a lot of fighting, a lot of with the

249
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 2: with the churches, you know.

250
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,040
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't disagree with you that that's how

251
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,600
Speaker 3: a church should be operating. I always agree with your

252
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 3: your jokes about it. So where does John Chris go

253
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:50,200
Speaker 3: to church?

254
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:51,600
Speaker 1: Now? Do you go to church? Yeah?

255
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, me and my girlfriend go to Ethos?

256
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: Is your pastor like better better our pastor?

257
00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 2: It's it's one of those churches that he wouldn't No,

258
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 2: I mean he knows of me. I think. I don't know.

259
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 1: But is Ethos or shop or a church?

260
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 2: Yeh, We're gonna play a fun game today.

261
00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,200
Speaker 1: Is this a church or a weed shop?

262
00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: We are in the parking lot of Higher Path Church

263
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: or a weed shop? I gotta get out for this path,

264
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: ladies and gentlemen.

265
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 1: Is a dispensary?

266
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 2: Come on?

267
00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,439
Speaker 1: Puff puff give? Is that the name of their building? Fund?

268
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 2: Nice?

269
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's.

270
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:31,360
Speaker 2: It's probably both Ethos. It probably is a dispensary, probably

271
00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:35,080
Speaker 2: in Portland. There's a dispensery called Ethos for sure. Oh yeah,

272
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:36,559
Speaker 2: that is funny. I never thought of all that.

273
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is.

274
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,720
Speaker 2: It is kind of we we rent, they rent, uh

275
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 2: Marathon Music Works.

276
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah. It's a good building.

277
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, great building.

278
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:44,560
Speaker 1: Yeah.

279
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:46,080
Speaker 2: So we're kind of in there and it's kind of

280
00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 2: a yeah.

281
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:48,200
Speaker 1: I don't know.

282
00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 2: I guess I don't really if the pastor was like, hey, dude,

283
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,360
Speaker 2: let's get up and, you know, have coffee or something,

284
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: and then I heard about someone else in the church

285
00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,959
Speaker 2: that was trying to meet up with him and couldn't.

286
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,559
Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to be shown favoritism or something like that.

287
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 2: You know. I just had to kind of go when

288
00:13:04,440 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 2: our Bible study is unbelievable. We go every Monday night.

289
00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,960
Speaker 3: And yeah, but because you want to have coffee with him,

290
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,240
Speaker 3: because you want to talk about something, wouldn't be favoritism.

291
00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 1: You know what.

292
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,839
Speaker 2: That's a fair point range or I didn't think about that.

293
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, well he was asking anything from him

294
00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 3: besides what he's actually supposed to do.

295
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,839
Speaker 1: Shepherd, Oh, that is what he's supposed to do. You know.

296
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 2: That's a good point. Yeah, I guess you see a

297
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 2: lot of yeah, I think we like it. But he

298
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 2: has like my our pastor has like a flip phone,

299
00:13:31,679 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 2: doesn't have a doesn't have the internet, doesn't have a

300
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 2: you know, he's not cutting up his sermons and putting

301
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 2: captions on him for TikTok, and that it really wasn't

302
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 2: supposed to be a joke. But yeah, I think that

303
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 2: that like when I was when I was starting. I

304
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 2: started comedy when I was twenty five. I'm forty now,

305
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 2: so I think.

306
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: I was kind of it.

307
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,720
Speaker 2: You know, I just come from you know, my dad

308
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 2: being a past a lot of the joke because I

309
00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 2: think the where the where the Christian I guess comedy

310
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 2: started is my dad was a preacher. So I would see, yeah,

311
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 2: him kind of bring home some of this, like hey,

312
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 2: we are like kind of behind on this mortgage. We

313
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 2: need to do like a sermon series on money, you know,

314
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 2: like I would, I would kind of see and then

315
00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: I would see behind, and then I go, well, or

316
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 2: like there's a better example, or like the worship pastor

317
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 2: was a buddy of ours, and he would tell me

318
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:37,960
Speaker 2: and the worship pastor son about how he like mutes

319
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 2: one of the mics for one of the singer women

320
00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 2: because she's not good. But they like yeah, yeah, yeah,

321
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 2: but they like kind of kind of very yeah, they

322
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 2: kind of like are very involved in the church and

323
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 2: maybe give and volunteer. So he goes, I'm not gonna

324
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 2: so me younger. Me goes, right, these we really want

325
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: to encourage people to sing and use their gifts for

326
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: the Lord. But I go, well, you we heard, so

327
00:15:04,240 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 2: I think that was kind of where it all and

328
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 2: a lot of when I was starting twenty five youth group,

329
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:12,280
Speaker 2: lots of those kind of jokes. And I'm forty now,

330
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 2: I think the maybe a lot of my like thoughts

331
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,360
Speaker 2: about like those huge megachurches and the money and the

332
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 2: private jets I've kind of I don't know, maybe I

333
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 2: just think it's maybe like a little silly, like I

334
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:30,200
Speaker 2: don't feel the need to like we gotta uncover them

335
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 2: like I used to. I think I'm just are you

336
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:34,920
Speaker 2: used to, yeah, Or that those jokes would would come

337
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 2: out of a place of anger oh wow yeah yeah yeah,

338
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,040
Speaker 2: And when I would miss on comedy, people would be like, dude,

339
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 2: this is like if this wasn't so true, this would

340
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 2: be funny. Like it was a little too like a

341
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,320
Speaker 2: knife because I was very angry.

342
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 3: How in the world do you find the balance when

343
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:54,000
Speaker 3: you're writing, Yeah, this is too true to be funny,

344
00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 3: Like usually things are funny.

345
00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,000
Speaker 1: Are actually true.

346
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:00,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, and but you have to wrap it enough in

347
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:04,880
Speaker 2: humor to let it carry or like people's not gonna

348
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 2: share it, like if you are very angry about One

349
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: of my first jokes that I remember when viral was

350
00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 2: a sketch called Christian Girl Instagram, So two thousand and

351
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,280
Speaker 2: what eleven or twelve, people would post photos of their

352
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 2: Bible and be like love it, like not helping anyone

353
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 2: understand scripture, or just be like there's a Bible highlighter,

354
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 2: a girl with a purity ring, two beth More books

355
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 2: in the back, a sunrise fresh cut like fruit and oatmeal.

356
00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:43,040
Speaker 2: And I was like, this photo took an hour. You

357
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: didn't read the Bible, And I go, Now, if you're

358
00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: posting the Bible and saying I read Joshua six and

359
00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 2: I really learned it, that's great. But I posted that

360
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 2: and it was it was funny enough. I was like,

361
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 2: put all, move all the US weeklies and the you know,

362
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,280

00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 2: this is and that went huge. But I was angry

365
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 2: at that. I was angry at That's what was led

366
00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:18,120
Speaker 2: to that expression of it. I think when I met

367
00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 2: I never missed because I'm like too zany or too

368
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: like quirky. I always miss because it's too it's too angry,

369
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,560
Speaker 2: or like I'm too I'm so frustrated. But I can't

370
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 2: like all the darkness that I watched the news, social media,

371
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:36,440
Speaker 2: the airport, the traveler, and it's I try to get

372
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:40,359
Speaker 2: it to come out as a rainbow, and sometimes it

373
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 2: it's stuck in there.

374
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: It's got to be a thing. Right with other.

375
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:47,840

396
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:45,959
Speaker 2: Yeah. But if you if you you get something in

397
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 2: your head and you go, I think other people think

398
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 2: this and the ones to go viral. Is that hit y'all?

399
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 2: And you go, yep, this is us. We know this

400
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 2: scenario or where whatever side you're on the protect the

401
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:02,040
Speaker 2: dogs or to make fun of there. Then it goes.

402
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,560
Speaker 2: But sometimes you go everybody else, y'all right, and everybody goes, no,

403
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,560
Speaker 2: we don't know what y'all don't think. No, we're y'all

404
00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 2: are fine with that. They're like, yeah, so how do

405
00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 2: you test that? I mean, you can't with a sketch video,

406
00:19:15,520 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 2: you can't. You just I'm trying to think of something

407
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: that is bombed for me recently.

408
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:22,159
Speaker 3: So you do a sketch video. If it does well,

409
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 3: then you could actually put it in. No sketching that

410
00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,280
Speaker 3: cauld stand up are totally differently. It's live stand up

00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,680
Speaker 2: in Branson, Casey and Saint Louis this weekend. And those

415
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,199
Speaker 2: are if you pay two hundred bucks and got a

416
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 2: hotel night and put on a collared shirt. I can't

417
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 2: be trying jokes that are new. I'll try them on

418
00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: Monday Tuesday. If they work, you can kind of massage

419
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:50,960
Speaker 2: them enough to maybe include them.

420
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,359
Speaker 1: And that's always been a thing, like like like Seinfeld.

421
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,600
Speaker 2: That yeah, now that's fun though. That's if you like

422
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 2: some guys I got. I'm working on my fifth hour

423
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,560
Speaker 2: of material. Probably I've been doing it for fifteen years.

424
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 1: If you just.

425
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 2: Go out on the weekend with nothing new, it's boring.

426
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:11,960
Speaker 1: I want to try.

427
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 2: Like my buddy last night said, he's like, I have

428
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,439
Speaker 2: a guy in my work that I don't like, and

429
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:20,920
Speaker 2: he's like, we're going over to their house for like

430
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 2: a barbecue or somebody's going to meet their kids. He goes,

431
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 2: I hate their kids. He doesn't even know them. But

432
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:26,880
Speaker 2: he's like, I don't like the guy. So I got,

433
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:28,720
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna like the kid. Yeah, and then he goes,

434
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 2: I'm surprised because I got I like this kid, and

435
00:20:30,920 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 2: he's like, I already hated him. It's a funny idea.

436
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,760
Speaker 2: All it is currently is just and I just he

437
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:40,480
Speaker 2: was telling us that at dinner and I just wrote

438
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,360
Speaker 2: it down. I just wrote it down.

439
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:44,200
Speaker 1: What appened to you?

440
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,800
Speaker 2: No? Yeah, so I don't know what ages you have? Oh,

441
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 2: I mean on my desk top of my computer, I

442
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 2: have green, yellow, and red. So green is like stuff

443
00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:03,120
Speaker 2: that works. I'm doing now currently probably ten pages yellow

444
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,520
Speaker 2: stuff that I've tried didn't really work. Might try to

445
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 2: get it back in, Might try to get it from

446
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:16,399
Speaker 2: a new angle. Twenty five and red a thousand, a thousand,

447
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,000
Speaker 2: and I never have deleted anything, just the thousands ago.

448
00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,600
Speaker 2: That's funny. And then people go no, And that's what's

449
00:21:23,600 --> 00:21:25,360
Speaker 2: great about comedy is people are like, how this guy

450
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:30,359
Speaker 2: could say all this? We don't if we need you,

451
00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 2: we need the crowd to take it. We can't do

452
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 2: by ourselves. We can't do anything. Yeah, So if the

453
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,240
Speaker 2: crowd doesn't be like.

454
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,600
Speaker 1: Like, how come this comedian gets to say all this?

455
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,520
Speaker 2: I we can't say no, we're just a reflection of

456
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 2: what everybody's thinking and what we try to be. And

457
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:52,680
Speaker 2: if sometimes you go, you know, different areas of the country,

458
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:57,520
Speaker 2: different different jokes, different things are funny different as a believer,

459
00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 2: like comedy, you have to cross the line for it

460
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,240
Speaker 2: to be funny. Otherwise it's not funny because you're sitting

461
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: at dinner. Sitting at dinner, he goes, all right, is

462
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,359
Speaker 2: it just me? Or was that waitress? You said the

463
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,959
Speaker 2: thing that everybody was thinking? Right, So it's across the

464
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 2: line of social norms. That's what makes it laughter. Right

465
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 2: as you go, did anyone else notice it? Or flies down?

466
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,080
Speaker 2: Or whatever you said it? It's not supposed to be

467
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:23,840
Speaker 2: said now as a believer, and this line's always moving depending.

468
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:24,080
Speaker 1: On what you like.

469
00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 2: You say different things with your wives. Probably here, not

470
00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 2: because it's inappropriate, but just because or if there's kids,

471
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:31,800
Speaker 2: that's a better example. There's kids here, don't so this

472
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 2: line is here, and there's a believer, there's a line

473
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,800
Speaker 2: out here that you don't want to cry. I wouldn't

474
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:40,679
Speaker 2: want to be disrespectful to someone. I don't want to

475
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,720
Speaker 2: make someone cry or like makes it hurt someone's feelings.

476
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,679
Speaker 2: So these lines are tough every night, and on the internet.

477
00:22:47,920 --> 00:22:51,720
Speaker 2: Sometimes you post something hilarious live and everyoney's like, this

478
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,560
Speaker 2: is hilarious because they opted in to come to your show.

479
00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 2: They consented. Now it's on the algorithm and this person's like,

480
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 2: I hate this guy. I was like, oh, shoot, I forgot.

481
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,200
Speaker 2: When we were here, we're all kind of joking about this,

482
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:09,680
Speaker 2: and now in the context of the show, and now

483
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 2: it got to some people that don't love it.

484
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 1: You go through those comments, I guess you kind of

485
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 1: have to.

486
00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 2: Write ah yeah, yeah, Well mostly I just see the

487
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,200
Speaker 2: if it's going in the right direction, like the views

488
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 2: if they if they don't like it, they just don't

489
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 2: like it. Yeah, now I'll make sure. I'll just look

490
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 2: at the comments the first hour to make sure nothing

491
00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 2: is going wild. But that I mean, you look for

492
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 2: the negative. You scroll the y of course. Yeah, lots

493
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:41,360
Speaker 2: of people.

494
00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 3: Say positive, positive, love you love you, This is so funny.

495
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're an idiot, look at it.

496
00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that is like, uh, that's probably

497
00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:59,560
Speaker 2: a larger conversation. But I think if I remember, I

498
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:01,320
Speaker 2: wrote him in my book about how when I was

499
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: getting the first time I got like huge in like

500
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen, I would see all these people were lined

501
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:10,120
Speaker 2: up like the green room. One time was overlooking the

502
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 2: parking lot and there was like the doors weren't opening.

503
00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,919
Speaker 2: It's a line like around the and I just I go,

504
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:18,719
Speaker 2: you gotta you gotta close these windows.

505
00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:19,480
Speaker 1: I can't look at that.

506
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 2: I don't that. And these people were so happy and

507
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 2: get where they had their tickets and you know, like

508
00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 2: waiting in line for like a this is the thing

509
00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:29,160
Speaker 2: we've been waiting for.

510
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,200
Speaker 1: It's the best.

511
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,879
Speaker 2: And I go, I don't feel that way about myself. Yeah,

512
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,960
Speaker 2: obviously I can't look at this. So when somebody does say,

513
00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 2: I remember I was in rehab in twenty nineteen, and

514
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 2: I remember, and I was drinking a bunch, and I remember.

515
00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: I didn't have a phone.

516
00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:57,439
Speaker 2: We were like out in Wickenberg, Arizona, middle of nowhere,

517
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 2: like it Dow. It's just like mental health, like restored.

518
00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,600
Speaker 2: There was therapist there. You were like hiking, doing yoga,

519
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,200
Speaker 2: all these things, right, and they would be like John,

520
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 2: we just want to let you know you're a good man.

521
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:12,199
Speaker 2: You're worthwhile and you're a valuable human being, and you

522
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,959
Speaker 2: made some mistakes, but we're proud of you for And

523
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 2: then I I was so uncomfortable with that. I would

524
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 2: go after I would go on Twitter and look for

525
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 2: bad stuff about myself. Wow in that while Wow, because

526
00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:31,160
Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't. I got that cannot be true.

527
00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 2: That cannot be true, because look at all these people

528
00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 2: like and you were like, hey, you're a good man,

529
00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:40,399
Speaker 2: and and you were proud of you and I just

530
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 2: hearing that and you go and I wasn't my I

531
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,080
Speaker 2: remember confessing that to them and they were like, yeah, people,

532
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,240
Speaker 2: it's pretty common.

533
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 1: I mean, it's it's theological.

534
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:52,119
Speaker 2: It's like it's like, yeah, it sounds like a Bible

535
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,119
Speaker 2: verse or like a parable or something like that. Do

536
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:58,320
Speaker 2: you go these things that people and nobody knew who

537
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,760
Speaker 2: I was there and all the all the there's a

538
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:02,679
Speaker 2: bunch of twenty five other guys there and they're like,

539
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 2: what's up where you're from?

540
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 1: And I was like.

541
00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:09,840
Speaker 2: They all thought I was cool. They didn't know I

542
00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 2: was popular, they didn't yeah, yeah, yeah. And then I

543
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 2: remember everybody going, we love you, dude, and I go, well,

544
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:20,040
Speaker 2: this can't be and I would go on the internet

545
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 2: and find because I because I think what that does,

546
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:30,639
Speaker 2: looking for those negative comments, you go this, this, this,

547
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 2: I am familiar with this. Yeah, this is at least

548
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 2: comfortable to me.

549
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,000
Speaker 1: Man I strangely, that's crazy interesting.

550
00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:41,520
Speaker 3: I remember so many times when we would be like

551
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:45,360
Speaker 3: at a playing affair or festival outdoors and the line

552
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 3: would come out past the buses. Yeah, and so we

553
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,639
Speaker 3: would sit in the bus. They can't see through the

554
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 3: we would be sitting watching them in line, and they're

555
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:56,040
Speaker 3: like standing there and they got their you know, their

556
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 3: drink and their tickets, and they're talking and they got

557
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 3: the shirts on hats, and I would just I couldn't

558
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,480
Speaker 3: help but feel like I'm gonna let these people down.

559
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,480
Speaker 3: There's like I'm fooling him right now. They're in line,

560
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: they bought a ticket, they're going to a show, and

561
00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 3: they've been deceived because I'm not what they think I am.

562
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's.

563
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 3: Such a great idea of who we are. I don't

564
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,639
Speaker 3: know if anyone doesn't feel that, because we're not created

565
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 3: to be worshiped in that way.

566
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, it's a public figure. I don't think anyone.

567
00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:32,800
Speaker 2: Everyone everyone I know and you've probably the same. We've

568
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,480
Speaker 2: had the opportunity to meet the people we look up to,

569
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 2: and then we go, dude. When I was and everybody's like, yeah, right, no.

570
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:41,280
Speaker 1: One goes.

571
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,400
Speaker 2: Whenever someone comes to me or you and goes you whatever.

572
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 2: When I was going through a divorce, we used to

573
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 2: watch your stuff and it would encourage us. Or I

574
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 2: remember somebody sent us a letter. It was like seven

575
00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,399
Speaker 2: pages and I told my assistant, she goes here and

576
00:27:58,440 --> 00:28:00,760
Speaker 2: I go, I can't, I can't read it. Yeah, she

577
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,080
Speaker 2: goes why I go. Either way, I don't know what

578
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 2: it is. But either way, if it's you saved my life,

579
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 2: that's uncomfortable. It was like, I hate you. That's uncomfortable.

580
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:14,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, but.

581
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,000

Speaker 2: out on the road looking for that or I don't

583

Speaker 2: it why he makes you so angry when you get

656
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:19,080
Speaker 2: cut off in traffic because it's like, hey, everybody, that

657
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 2: guy said we're all going you second. Yeah, I'm first,

661
00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:38,200
Speaker 2: and he goes, this confirms I think this confirms all

662
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 2: the other stuff I already think about myself.

663
00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:42,920
Speaker 3: We should do like they're doing Asia, where they just

664
00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 3: just all like a zipper.

665
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they do it everywhere. It's not just

666
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 2: the asia of it like they do in Asia. But

667
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 2: why is that such a it's such a like if

668
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 2: you were like, I'm trying to think one of the

669
00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 2: most If you were like, if I just got the

670
00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 2: Tonight show and the President was like, let's meet up

671
00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:11,200
Speaker 2: for lunch and you are awarded times greatest Person of

672
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,200
Speaker 2: the Year, you wouldn't probably being cut off probably wouldn't

673
00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 2: bother you. You're like, yeah, my identity or whatever is secure.

674
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 2: I know this doesn't.

675
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 1: But if you're so, where's the line?

676
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, where is that for you?

677
00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 1: You thought about it?

678
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 3: You got time Person of the Years, that's a line.

679
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 3: Oh that's too far. You get to have lunch with

680
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,840
Speaker 3: the president. He wants to tell you how funny you are.

681
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:47,200
Speaker 2: And aware if I do, I think that's what you

682
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 2: and watching your journey is I think you go. I

683
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:55,640
Speaker 2: could be wrong. I let's speak for you. But you go, oh,

684
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 2: there's nowhere to get Yeah, you're right, there's nowhere. If

685
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:05,600
Speaker 2: you go we did this tour, well, like, well, I'm

686
00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 2: we're say I'm going to Saint Louis on Saturday. Well,

687
00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:11,000

688
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 2: next time, we might do two shows there. And if

689
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: we do that maybe yeah, uh, if we did three,

690
00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,200
Speaker 2: then we could get to the arena. And you go,

691
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,880
Speaker 2: that's what you're saying, right, And then and then and

692
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 2: then well where Well? I think one of the ending

693
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:35,719
Speaker 2: chapters in my book is is, uh, you go, what

694

Speaker 2: that thing.

706
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: Would be.

707
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 2: You find you're sixty five and you finally crafted it

Speaker 2: think we're saying, right man, You go, oh, this wasn't

713
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,239

Speaker 2: Anybody like, dude, how much well? I always joke that.

777
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 2: I always joke that we used to live in Marina

778
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:39,439
Speaker 2: del Rey and there's a big bunch of yachts out there,

779
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,520
Speaker 2: and you got the biggest yacht until the next guy

780
00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:45,319
Speaker 2: pulls up and then you're like, oh yeah, now you're yeah.

781
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,120
Speaker 2: But when everybody has a normal you got the biggest one.

782
00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,880
Speaker 2: You're the I'm the guy. And then a guy pulls

783
00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 2: up that overshadows you. He's got a helicopter pat and

784
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:58,360
Speaker 2: you're like I gotta yeah, and if we could, if

785
00:38:59,280 --> 00:39:04,200
Speaker 2: if we could, Hey, Carsel, if you if I could

786
00:39:04,280 --> 00:39:09,080
Speaker 2: do the same art, but from a place of this

787
00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,320
Speaker 2: is how I feel about life and society and culture,

788
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 2: and other people can relate to this and it helps

789
00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 2: them and differentiate myself from the Well how many likes

790
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:22,279
Speaker 2: did it get? Yeah, that's but but but you also,

791
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:24,279
Speaker 2: you can't be this without this. I could.

792
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 3: So there were a few musicians I've met out of

793
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,880
Speaker 3: you know, so many, there's maybe one or two guys

794
00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 3: that I think and they could have been lying to me.

795
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,879
Speaker 3: And it could be the same in comedy. But there's

796
00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 3: one or one or two guys that had just completely compartmentalized.

797
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,560
Speaker 1: This is my job, that's not my life.

798
00:39:41,960 --> 00:39:45,360
Speaker 3: I do it, and and it'll I'll get to this

799
00:39:45,520 --> 00:39:47,400
Speaker 3: level and then I'll start coming down and I have

800
00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 3: no problem with coming down, and then I'll get back

801
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 3: to the club level. I'll go back down to one bus,

802
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,960
Speaker 3: maybe even go back into a van one day and

803
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 3: get into like the dive bars. But that's okay, that's

804
00:39:57,680 --> 00:39:58,600
Speaker 3: just my job, and I know.

805
00:39:58,640 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 2: That that that's the arc.

806
00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,799
Speaker 3: I but that's not me. I cannot live in the

807
00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:03,640
Speaker 3: arc like that.

808
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,799
Speaker 1: I can't do that. But I can't do it.

809
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:09,840
Speaker 3: I was always attached to it too much. I was

810
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 3: in the Hampston Wheel.

811
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:14,239
Speaker 2: And if and if somebody you know a lot of

817
00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:34,600
Speaker 2: celebrities talking about how our lives are tough. I don't think.

818
00:40:34,640 --> 00:40:36,120
Speaker 2: I don't know if anyone wants to hear that. But

819
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 2: everybody relates to this. Everybody relates to this in a

820
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 2: way that well, what if you got employee the month?

821
00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:50,160

Speaker 2: earlier in life, well, I should say the early in

827
00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 2: life you figure that out, then you're free. But then

828
00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 2: there's we we. I would imagine you're not to worry anymore.

829
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:20,400
Speaker 2: You moved out here, but you still like ask somebody

832
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,439
Speaker 2: to try to dis it's myself from this, but like, yeah,

Speaker 3: No, I didn't here right now, And you know, I

836
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 3: always say, man, I don't care about downloads. I just

837
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:43,319
Speaker 3: want to have conversations with people I like, you know,

838
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 3: And if I had conversations with people I like, the

839
00:41:46,239 --> 00:41:48,560
Speaker 3: more I do that, then naturally it should grow.

840
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 1: But then I'm like, what was the numbers last week? Yeah?

841
00:41:51,680 --> 00:41:56,400
Speaker 2: And if the numbers are good, then what or if

842
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,640
Speaker 2: the numbers are bad, then what you can't I don't

843
00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:03,719
Speaker 2: think you can. Maybe as like a believer you said,

844
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:07,400
Speaker 2: we say we're supposed to be totally disconnected from that.

845
00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:09,880
Speaker 2: We don't care at all, but to be to be

846
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:13,919
Speaker 2: it's it's okay. I feel like I could be wrong,

847
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:17,200
Speaker 2: but it's okay to want to know if you're doing

848
00:42:17,239 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 2: good at work, at your it's okay if you gotta yeah,

849
00:42:20,840 --> 00:42:23,399
Speaker 2: you gotta yeah. I would imagine if I came into

850
00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:27,120
Speaker 2: my therapist and I say, yeah, my my buddy who's

851
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:31,680
Speaker 2: a comedian friend of mine, got a my bock Mercedes,

852
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:36,239
Speaker 2: and I go, that makes me feel some kind of way.

853
00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:37,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think.

854
00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 2: The message of Christ and I could be wrong, but

855
00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:43,520
Speaker 2: you're like, he would be like, I understand that.

856
00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:44,960
Speaker 1: Yeah.

857
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:47,640
Speaker 3: I think if you know, if we were homesteaders and

858
00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:50,000
Speaker 3: we were chomping wood, yeah, for the winner, we would

859
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:53,000
Speaker 3: look at our woodpiles and go and he's got a

860
00:42:53,000 --> 00:42:53,480
Speaker 3: little more.

861
00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:58,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I bet his wife thinks he's more of

862
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:03,040
Speaker 2: a man than me. Yeah, it's the same thing. Yet

863
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:06,000
Speaker 2: every so in Essa's we're telling our story from our perspective,

864
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:09,200
Speaker 2: but every person listening is good. Yeah, so what and

865
00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:13,560
Speaker 2: you go, Hey, our kid got turned down from the

866
00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:19,560
Speaker 2: premiere twelve year old soccer, But what if they got it?

867
00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,719
Speaker 1: Then? Yeah, that does feel pretty good. You know.

868
00:43:25,160 --> 00:43:27,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, what if you Yeah, that does feel pretty good.

869
00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:31,719
Speaker 2: Or they call to do the thing, or they we

870
00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 2: want you to come, Yeah, that does feel pretty good.

871
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:39,080
Speaker 2: Is whatever worldly validation, but if you attach yourself too

872
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 2: close to it, you're gonna die.

873
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 1: Think about this a lot, don't you.

874
00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, all day every day, I mean, on this topic.

875
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 2: But I think very heavily.

876
00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 3: And I think I think probably guys that weren't didn't

877
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:55,680
Speaker 3: come from a Christian worldview.

878
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:56,399
Speaker 1: At least like you did.

879
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, at least they don't have a way to reconcile

880
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 3: it at all, which is why you just spin off

881
00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:07,040
Speaker 3: into addictions and yeah, mindless hobbies.

882
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:08,359
Speaker 1: You're saying.

883
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:10,879
Speaker 2: If without without and as a believer, you probably spin

884
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:12,480
Speaker 2: off into them. And you go, I know this isn't

885
00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 2: the way, sure, but they might go this sure yeah, yeah, yeah,

886
00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 2: you go, yeah, yeah, I grew up. I think that's

887
00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 2: everybody our age. You go, I grew up with the

888
00:44:26,560 --> 00:44:31,520
Speaker 2: with the knowledge, with the you know, with the you know,

889
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,399
Speaker 2: the fruits of the spirit, that these are the good

890
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:37,960
Speaker 2: qualities that Christ, even if you're not a believer, that

891
00:44:38,040 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 2: this guy put others in front of himself, that served

892
00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:47,160
Speaker 2: his friends. That you go, man, there's a lot of

893
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 2: other things. You know. You watch TV and you got

894
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,520
Speaker 2: someone with trying to sell you a prayer cloth that's

895
00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 2: going to heal you. You go, well, I don't think

896
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:58,520
Speaker 2: that is it, but yeah, I think everybody. I could

897
00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:05,640
Speaker 2: be wrong, but everybody, I think what would get to

898
00:45:05,640 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 2: a place you were like, I think that guy. I

899
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:08,799
Speaker 2: think that guy that might be the way.

00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:11,719

Speaker 3: And if you want to find out more, go to

931
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:32,840
Speaker 3: eeye dot com.

932
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,600
Speaker 1: You have a denomination that you think you align with.

933
00:46:38,200 --> 00:46:41,000
Speaker 2: Our we're non denominational, but our I asked our pastor

934
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:43,239
Speaker 2: the other days. I make a lot of jokes about denomination,

935
00:46:43,480 --> 00:46:45,479
Speaker 2: I know. He said, he said, we're we are Church

936
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,160
Speaker 2: of Church of Christ. We we split from that and

937
00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,880
Speaker 2: become denominational, which all that stuff is kind of silly

938
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:52,359
Speaker 2: to me, but.

939
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:58,000
Speaker 3: Well, you know, non denominational is always a cover up

940
00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,960
Speaker 3: for something. Is as soon as you ask them how

941
00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,520
Speaker 3: they baptize or what they think about the.

942
00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you'll get to it.

943
00:47:04,160 --> 00:47:04,880
Speaker 1: You'll get to it.

944
00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 2: This is not a denomination. It's just a group of

945
00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:09,840
Speaker 2: us that have separated ourselves from the other ones.

946
00:47:10,320 --> 00:47:11,360
Speaker 1: It was like a nomination.

947
00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:16,360
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, We love everybody, we love it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

948
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 1: That I think that.

949
00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,040
Speaker 2: You got a joke about the Church of Christ and

950
00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 2: oh yeah yeah yeah about to know church is the

951
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:25,879
Speaker 2: Church of Christ, the Church of God.

952
00:47:26,360 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 1: You're both of them.

953
00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:34,399
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, oh yeah, a Church of the Christ. About

954
00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:35,840
Speaker 2: what's it like to as a woman, what's it like

955
00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:37,000
Speaker 2: to be this close to the stage.

956
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:40,120
Speaker 1: Yes, that was a joke because they are not allowed.

957
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,359
Speaker 2: The women aren't allowed on stage in the Church Christ.

958
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:47,840
Speaker 2: And my my joke really is you know, because I

959
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:50,160
Speaker 2: said this, somebody said I used to be Catholic. I go, no,

960
00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:50,920
Speaker 2: I'm at Christian.

961
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 1: Like.

962
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:56,719
Speaker 2: The joke is not I'm deciding who's a believer. The

963
00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 2: joke is, well, some of us don't think that you're

964
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 2: you qualify. That's the joke is more like Tim Hawkins

965
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,080
Speaker 2: had had a bit early on in his career. It's

966
00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:10,200
Speaker 2: like some people all the different worship hand signals you

967
00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:13,680
Speaker 2: probably want, is this one's, this one's, this one's, this one's,

968
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:17,520
Speaker 2: this one's once the winshi a wiper like and he

969
00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 2: goes and people would go, really, you're gonna mock, You're

970
00:48:21,760 --> 00:48:26,759
Speaker 2: gonna mock the way someone worships Christ. And he kind

971
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 2: of explained it, like, no, I'm what I'm saying is,

972
00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:33,560
Speaker 2: if you really think about the joke, it's worship however

973
00:48:33,560 --> 00:48:37,719
Speaker 2: you want, express your love however you want. These are

974
00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:40,959
Speaker 2: just the differences. It's actually the opposite of what people

975
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,520
Speaker 2: are being offended about. Sure, oh, you're making fun of

976
00:48:43,560 --> 00:48:45,319
Speaker 2: the way, or like, no, we're actually making fun of

977
00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:48,759
Speaker 2: the way. Everyone thinks. Oh if I just do it

978
00:48:48,800 --> 00:48:50,799
Speaker 2: like this, the you know, the carry the baby my

979
00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:52,719
Speaker 2: fish was as big, or I don't remember the joke,

980
00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:56,279
Speaker 2: but yeah, but.

981
00:48:58,239 --> 00:48:59,120
Speaker 1: Like if if.

982
00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,520
Speaker 2: If I am, Like a lot of people at the

983
00:49:04,560 --> 00:49:07,319
Speaker 2: beginning were like, is this guy a Christian when I

984
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:09,440
Speaker 2: was first coming out, because nobody who I was, because

985
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,719
Speaker 2: the jokes were like calling out a lot of things

986
00:49:12,719 --> 00:49:15,920
Speaker 2: in the faith. Because if I am a believer, those

987
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 2: jokes are hilarious. They're like, this guy gets us. This guy, no,

988
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:20,959
Speaker 2: I can't believe he's saying these things. This is our guy.

989
00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 2: If I'm not, these jokes are wildly offensive because you're

990
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:31,640
Speaker 2: pointing a finger at something that's so close to everyone's heart,

991
00:49:31,680 --> 00:49:33,759
Speaker 2: their faith and want to look at y'all, and I'm

992
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 2: trying to hold the mirror up to us. Yea to

993
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 2: be like like if somebody's making fun of NASCAR or whatever.

994
00:49:41,719 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 2: I make a lot of jokes about NASCAR, but I

995
00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:46,560
Speaker 2: go to six races a year, and everybody in racing like, no, no, no,

996
00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:48,560
Speaker 2: he's I have my own racing team. Like this guy

997
00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 2: is yeah he almost he can say this. It's like

998
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 2: somebody making fun of your mom. You or your brothers

999
00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,480
Speaker 2: can do it. Yeah, but if somebody else does it,

1000
00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:56,160
Speaker 2: you want to fight him.

1001
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

1002
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,680
Speaker 3: I think you approach it in a in a very

1003
00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:03,439
Speaker 3: practical way that I actually think is healthy. I think

1004
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:08,879
Speaker 3: Christians should and could think through the way we're doing

1005
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:13,480
Speaker 3: things in a practical way. We can think practically, we don't.

1006
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:19,000
Speaker 3: It doesn't have to be all all emotional. I think

1007
00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:22,279
Speaker 3: we can go, huh, would we we be planning a

1008
00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:23,800
Speaker 3: church on this on this corner?

1009
00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 1: Like yeah?

1010
00:50:25,400 --> 00:50:29,400
Speaker 2: And if like well, at at the beginning, like in

1011
00:50:29,440 --> 00:50:34,080
Speaker 2: the Roman, that that's what the court jester was. Yeah,

1012
00:50:34,120 --> 00:50:38,560
Speaker 2: so everybody goes, look at this kingdom. It's unbelievable. And

1013
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,360
Speaker 2: the court jester, they they gave him like ten minutes.

1014
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:44,800
Speaker 2: He goes, what about those people are living in squalor?

1015
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:48,080
Speaker 2: But you couldn't say it. Nobody was allowed to say

1016
00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,359
Speaker 2: it in the presence of the king, because he would

1017
00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,719
Speaker 2: kill you. So you go, well, the court jester could

1018
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:57,279
Speaker 2: come up there, and I'll say, there's there's a court

1019
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,879
Speaker 2: jester of of country, those mean paiges. There's a court

1020
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,439
Speaker 2: jester of Christianity. There's a court gester in politics, there's

1021
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 2: that role, like there's I used to do a bunch

1022
00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:10,960
Speaker 2: of Christian conferences and I was like, everybody loved the comedian.

1023
00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,320
Speaker 2: I'll go, yeah, but if it was all comedy all weekend,

1024
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,440
Speaker 2: it doesn't help. It's like the one body, many parts.

1025
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 2: If it was all turn or burn, that doesn't help.

1026
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:24,440
Speaker 2: If it was all just encourage you all grace, that

1027
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:28,200
Speaker 2: doesn't help. I think all these almost like a like

1028
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:32,280
Speaker 2: a city council or something. Hey, should we put the

1029
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:35,240
Speaker 2: azaleas in the roundabout? That would look beautiful. I would

1030
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,040
Speaker 2: love it. It's gonna cost us money. And then we

1031
00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 2: like with many what's that of proverbs? Many advisors things succeed.

1032
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:45,719
Speaker 1: I get it wrong.

1033
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:49,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I think there there inevitably have been people

1034
00:51:49,680 --> 00:51:54,399
Speaker 3: that have seen stuff from you on social media and thought, yeah,

1035
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:55,160
Speaker 3: it's probably right.

1036
00:51:55,520 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 2: The Christian girl Instagram think it did stop, Yeah, it

1037
00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,160
Speaker 2: did and that's a very small example, but like, yeah,

1038
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 2: we've been on our podcast for the last we don't

1039
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 2: talk about it anymore because I think we we didn't

1040
00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:13,280
Speaker 2: we didn't personally end it, but we started talking about tipping.

1041
00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 2: I was like, this is insane about it's somebody gives

1042
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 2: you a coffee and it's thirty percent.

1043
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,880
Speaker 1: I go, do you do you all realize I've yeah.

1044
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, and everybody yeah, of course yeh, or like it's

1045
00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:26,440
Speaker 2: not even like somebody you're at the airport and you

1046
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,720
Speaker 2: just get you get it and the guy and there's

1047
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 2: like that. And we were like we were in on

1048
00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:35,680
Speaker 2: our podcast, we were like kind of waving the red flag,

1049
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:40,239
Speaker 2: like this is thirty percent, and and it it is.

1050
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 2: It has dialed back, not because of me, but there's

1051
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:49,680
Speaker 2: a lot of comedians, but everyone made fun of it

1052
00:52:50,520 --> 00:52:53,239
Speaker 2: so much kind of in a way that we're like

1053
00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,799
Speaker 2: people were businesses like, yeah, we got to start paying

1054
00:52:55,800 --> 00:53:00,560
Speaker 2: our employees or we can't put this on tipping everywhere

1055
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:05,320
Speaker 2: and it's less now yeah because not saying me, but

1056
00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:07,200
Speaker 2: but because people.

1057
00:53:06,880 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 1: Were like, hey, this is absurd.

1058
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 2: And then kind of a little bit of shame or

1059
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:15,040
Speaker 2: a little bit of maybe not shame, maybe accountability to

1060
00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,960
Speaker 2: these like, oh, we don't have to now. Everybody would

1061
00:53:17,960 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 2: watch my podcast and they'd be like, we tip zero

1062
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,880
Speaker 2: percent and we we are. We are comfortable with it

1063
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:24,960
Speaker 2: now because here in you.

1064
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:29,640
Speaker 3: I think, yeah, in the same way I think the

1065
00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,320
Speaker 3: stuff you do with churches. Yeah, I think it's valuable

1066
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:33,480
Speaker 3: in that way actually.

1067
00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:36,239
Speaker 2: If it's done right. Because but I I'll be the

1068
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:39,440
Speaker 2: first guy to say I miss sometimes.

1069
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 1: That's an example of one you missed.

1070
00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:51,120
Speaker 2: I remember, I I remember. I mean, I don't know

1071
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:55,960
Speaker 2: if I still stand by it or not. But somebody

1072
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 2: was advertising this like workout line of apparel where there

1073
00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:02,080
Speaker 2: was like it was like women in yoga pants and

Speaker 2: all right, like I just made a I made a

1077
00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:16,160
Speaker 2: sketch about it, and I go, I don't think anybody's

1078
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:17,600
Speaker 2: in heaven, Like how did you get here? I was like, oh,

1079
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:19,919
Speaker 2: I was checking out that girl's butt and I saw

1080
00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 2: a cross and I was like, hey what and then

1081
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 2: she led me in the Sinner's prayer anyway, Yeah, I

1082
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 2: just thought it was a little it was very suggestive,

1083
00:54:31,760 --> 00:54:33,920
Speaker 2: like the clothing was very suggested.

1084
00:54:33,960 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to hear how you missed this.

1085
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:41,000
Speaker 2: Well, I think I right, well, all right, maybe I

1086
00:54:41,000 --> 00:54:43,600
Speaker 2: missed because I felt bad because the guy, the guy,

1087
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:46,360
Speaker 2: the CEO, was like, I'm out of business, and I

1088
00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 2: felt bad because he said his wife. I mean maybe not,

1089
00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:55,359
Speaker 2: but he I remember he said his wife like had

1090
00:54:55,400 --> 00:54:58,359
Speaker 2: like some debilitating like disease and like she couldn't work,

1091
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:00,319
Speaker 2: and this is how it was supporting the family. Maybe

1092
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:04,279
Speaker 2: I just felt if Joe Rogan goes on his podcast

1093
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 2: and says, hey, the tractor supply is a money lot,

1094
00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 2: that it will affect their business. He's so big, it

1095
00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:15,879
Speaker 2: will it might put them out of business and then

1096
00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,879
Speaker 2: it would lose employees. But it.

1097
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:21,399
Speaker 1: I get what you're saying.

1098
00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:23,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it's honorable that you're saying that way.

1099
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 1: But you still didn't miss it.

1100
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:27,040
Speaker 2: Yeah I should have.

1101
00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:29,880

Speaker 2: Me I was right off because of the right by you. Yeah,

1103
00:55:32,600 --> 00:55:33,879
Speaker 2: maybe because I felt.

Speaker 1: Yeah.

1118
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:21,879
Speaker 2: But everybody, I think the the meme pages, I think

1119
00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:24,799
Speaker 2: there's a little bit of anonymity to them, that it's

1120
00:56:24,840 --> 00:56:29,440
Speaker 2: not a person, and they go hard and like the onion.

1121
00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,600
Speaker 2: It's not like I go, it's kind of unfair. I

1122
00:56:33,680 --> 00:56:37,280
Speaker 2: have tour dates, you know, where I'm gonna be. Somebody

1123
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:42,240
Speaker 2: could come fight me, and they have, Like John Chris said, this, y'all,

1124
00:56:42,280 --> 00:56:49,200
Speaker 2: don't you don't know who were Who's the onion? This

1125
00:56:49,320 --> 00:56:50,520
Speaker 2: is wildly offensive?

1126
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 1: But like, well, who is it?

1127
00:56:51,600 --> 00:56:56,399
Speaker 2: It's like uh uh South Park or the family Guy.

1128
00:56:56,440 --> 00:57:00,879
Speaker 2: You're like, it's not it's stuff that, but who is it?

1129
00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:05,319
Speaker 2: And so you go. But I think some of those,

1130
00:57:05,440 --> 00:57:07,319
Speaker 2: some of those, especially in Christianity, I think some of

1131
00:57:07,320 --> 00:57:12,919
Speaker 2: those mean pages go too far and this is not this,

1132
00:57:15,160 --> 00:57:16,920
Speaker 2: this doesn't seem to be this doesn't if I make

1133
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:20,120
Speaker 2: fun of NASCAR or country music. At the end of

1134
00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 2: the day, I love it. I love and and the

1135
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 2: Body of Christ too. I love them. I don't There's

1136
00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:28,800
Speaker 2: a lot of people that have come through comedy or

1137
00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:32,120
Speaker 2: even music that you try to use the Christian platform

1138
00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:34,320
Speaker 2: to get. Once I get big enough, I'm going.

1139
00:57:36,960 --> 00:57:37,160
Speaker 1: Right.

1140
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:42,320
Speaker 2: I never different conversation. But I love the local church

1141
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:46,040
Speaker 2: and I've I love going to tell jokes to them

1142
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,720
Speaker 2: and to the because I and I think I think

1143
00:57:48,840 --> 00:57:51,120
Speaker 2: people know that I do.

1144
00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:53,840
Speaker 1: I could be wrong.

1145
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,560
Speaker 3: Do you feel the pressure of I'm sure you do,

1146
00:57:57,200 --> 00:58:01,720
Speaker 3: of being a being that doesn't have to follow the

1147
00:58:01,760 --> 00:58:03,720
Speaker 3: constraints of your faith at all.

1148
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:08,360
Speaker 1: Let me let me say this before we enter. Let

1149
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:08,760
Speaker 1: me say this.

1150
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 3: I've heard somewhere that there that were like short words

1151
00:58:13,160 --> 00:58:15,840
Speaker 3: that end with a hard consonant like K or T

1152
00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 3: are funny and they're funnier, and comedians use that as

1153
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:23,880
Speaker 3: a tool in the tool belt. And you don't get.

1154
00:58:23,680 --> 00:58:27,760
Speaker 1: To do that. So you're you're what do you mean,

1155
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 1: You don't get to say the hard words with the.

1156
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:35,120
Speaker 2: K O word yeah, yeah, yeah.

1157
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:39,240
Speaker 3: And so you're you have one less tool to use.

1158
00:58:40,680 --> 00:58:42,200
Speaker 2: I don't look at it like that. You don't look

1159
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:43,360
Speaker 2: at it in terms of uh.

1160
00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,400
Speaker 3: No, I think I don't hear your show, by the way,

1161
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:49,040
Speaker 3: and think you need anything else.

1162
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:49,520
Speaker 1: I hear it.

1163
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 2: I think a guy, I think, I think that is

1164
00:58:52,720 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 2: the well, if you go to open mic night, that's

1165
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,600
Speaker 2: what that would be the easiest way to swear, or

1166
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:01,400
Speaker 2: certainly to tell a joke that you're like, I can't

1167
00:59:01,400 --> 00:59:05,160
Speaker 2: believe he's saying that. It's the easiest way to start,

1168
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,760
Speaker 2: just to you know, and I think it takes I

1169
00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:13,320
Speaker 2: would take and I know the other guys that are

1170
00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:19,080
Speaker 2: doing it well, that are clean napargad see Leeann Morgan

1171
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 2: is killing it, Derek Streue is killing like. We take

1172
00:59:23,480 --> 00:59:27,520
Speaker 2: a tremendous amount of pride in that, and not to

1173
00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:29,240
Speaker 2: look down on anybody. I was just raised in a

1174
00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:30,840
Speaker 2: house where we didn't swear. I remember going to the

1175
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:32,800
Speaker 2: comedy club the first night and I heard a guy

1176
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:36,920
Speaker 2: swearing and publicly, and I was like, is he is

1177
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,080
Speaker 2: he in trouble for that? That's just how it was raised.

1178
00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:41,800
Speaker 2: So I'm not I don't want to be like a well,

1179
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 2: I'm better than our.

1180
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:45,320
Speaker 1: Comedy, But I think.

1181
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:52,840
Speaker 2: If you want to communicate that that point of anger

1182
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:57,280
Speaker 2: or frustration or at least sincerity without I mean, I've

1183
00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 2: never heard my parents because but if my mom ever,

1184
01:00:01,080 --> 01:00:04,720
Speaker 2: I would be like me, it meant so much more,

1185
01:00:04,800 --> 01:00:07,360
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. She never did, but if

1186
01:00:07,400 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 2: I would. I think I heard her say crap one

1187
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:11,439
Speaker 2: time and I was like, we are dead.

1188
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:13,480
Speaker 1: You know, it's just a scale.

1189
01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:17,320
Speaker 2: So if you if you use those words flippantly at

1190
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,560
Speaker 2: all times, that you'd be like, well they don't they

1191
01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 2: mean less? Yeah, And I think that language is as

1192
01:00:22,640 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 2: a whole, that's what those words are for.

1193
01:00:25,480 --> 01:00:27,120
Speaker 3: There was a there was a time and self help

1194
01:00:27,160 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 3: where it was like a thing where Tony Robbins and

1195
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:32,120
Speaker 3: those guys were saying, oh, you don't yeah.

1196
01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:33,440
Speaker 1: You don't have their attention.

1197
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:35,800
Speaker 2: They don't know that you're saying, I remember that, like

1198
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 2: the Gary v era. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know.

1199
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,440
Speaker 2: I think a lot of people say we love your

1200
01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:46,800
Speaker 2: we love your comedy, and we love listen and we'd

1201
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:48,480
Speaker 2: love that I can put it on in the car

1202
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:50,800
Speaker 2: and with with the kids, and not that we don't

1203
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:55,280
Speaker 2: do it for that, but you go, yeah, yeah, yeah,

1204
01:00:55,600 --> 01:00:56,280
Speaker 2: I feel the same.

1205
01:00:57,720 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 3: You think you'll do this a long time? Considering everything

1206
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 3: we've talked, about.

1207
01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 2: You slaved me a contract work on the farm.

1208
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,800
Speaker 1: Well, I went to a few a few areas where

1209
01:01:11,040 --> 01:01:11,520
Speaker 1: I think.

1210
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:19,040
Speaker 2: When when I first did when I first did into

1211
01:01:19,080 --> 01:01:21,880
Speaker 2: that July twenty third, June twenty third, two thousand and nine,

1212
01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:25,600
Speaker 2: I first did open mic night and I bombed. It

1213
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,160
Speaker 2: was two minutes as the first time I ever did it,

1214
01:01:27,360 --> 01:01:32,840
Speaker 2: did it formally bombed, And I was driving home. I

1215
01:01:32,920 --> 01:01:36,440
Speaker 2: was in a silver I was driving down Peachtree Street

1216
01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:40,560
Speaker 2: in Atlanta, Silver, I think a two thousand and one

1217
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 2: silver Honda Cord two doors, and I go, I'm gonna

1218
01:01:44,800 --> 01:01:46,960
Speaker 2: do this the rest of my life, and I bombed.

1219
01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:50,200
Speaker 2: It wasn't nobody gave me a standing ovation. Nobody even cheered.

1220
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:55,439
Speaker 2: But it was such a I mean, it just sounds bad,

1221
01:01:55,520 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 2: but I can only compare it to it sounds like

1222
01:01:57,800 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 2: somebody who did Heroin to take out this changes. I'm changed.

1223
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:04,440
Speaker 1: I am changed.

1224
01:02:05,000 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I think.

1225
01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:14,760
Speaker 1: You can't.

1226
01:02:15,040 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 2: I mean, I think when I was in rehab, it

1227
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 2: was it was two I was nine months and I

1228
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,120
Speaker 2: didn't post anything online and I'd never and I was

1229
01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:28,720
Speaker 2: I thought that was going to be my death and

1230
01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 2: it wasn't. In fact, it was like, oh, maybe me strong,

1231
01:02:32,680 --> 01:02:35,920
Speaker 2: so I go, oh, I don't need this to survive.

1232
01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:37,720
Speaker 2: I thought prior to that, I have to have this.

1233
01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:38,920
Speaker 2: I was chasing it, running if I.

1234
01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:43,520
Speaker 1: Don't and I don't need this. Now I missed, dude.

1235
01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,840
Speaker 2: I remember sitting in rehab and they would let us

1236
01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:52,360
Speaker 2: watch maybe TV, like on them on Maybe. I guess

1237
01:02:52,360 --> 01:02:55,000
Speaker 2: it was the National Championship. It was the National Championship

1238
01:02:55,560 --> 01:03:00,600
Speaker 2: because it was in January and Lauren Daegel will singing

1239
01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:06,000
Speaker 2: the national anthem and then Trump was there.

1240
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 1: And I remember just wanting to.

1241
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 2: Be present to that and I was like, I'm on

1242
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:17,240
Speaker 2: the sideline. I didn't have a phone. I go, I

1243
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,720
Speaker 2: want to If I would have made, I would have

1244
01:03:20,800 --> 01:03:24,200
Speaker 2: made everybody was I know everybody's thinking because that was

1245
01:03:24,240 --> 01:03:26,520
Speaker 2: it that Lauren was very controversial, and then Trump it's

1246
01:03:26,560 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 2: not like he was now. It's in two thousand nineteen

1247
01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:33,080
Speaker 2: or whatever, and there were so many like nuances of

1248
01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:36,320
Speaker 2: like our community. I was like, man, I want to

1249
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:41,480
Speaker 2: speak about this, and I and I there was At

1250
01:03:41,520 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 2: the time, it wasn't. That wasn't what God's plan for

1251
01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:48,680
Speaker 2: me was at the moment. But now, whether it's live

1252
01:03:48,800 --> 01:03:54,120
Speaker 2: touring or you know, you could write a book, you

1253
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:56,760
Speaker 2: could do a pod. There's ways to like I think you.

1254
01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,040
Speaker 2: I think you felt the same. I couldn't. I shouldn't

1255
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:01,120
Speaker 2: speak for you, but you're like, well, I still want to.

1256
01:04:02,360 --> 01:04:06,840
Speaker 2: I have valuable things to contribute, and there's other believers.

1257
01:04:09,040 --> 01:04:12,040
Speaker 2: I can't just let's say you had enough. I can't

1258
01:04:12,120 --> 01:04:13,040
Speaker 2: just move out here and be.

1259
01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:16,520
Speaker 1: Done. Yeah.

1260
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:18,120
Speaker 2: If I can do it, if I can do it

1261
01:04:18,160 --> 01:04:20,240
Speaker 2: in a healthy way and still prioritize my family and

1262
01:04:20,280 --> 01:04:23,880
Speaker 2: my faith, I would still like to contribute.

1263
01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:25,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, to.

1264
01:04:27,600 --> 01:04:29,840
Speaker 3: Encourage it has the energy has to go somewhere, the

1265
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:32,360
Speaker 3: h yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the god given passion has

1266
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:33,959
Speaker 3: to be directed, has to be aware.

1267
01:04:34,080 --> 01:04:38,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think I my brother, I've I've obviously

1268
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 2: struggled to do this healthily, whether it's addiction or just

1269
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 2: validation or attention that I have lost my way, sometimes

1270
01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 2: with tremendous consequences, some less.

1271
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:55,120
Speaker 1: And my brother.

1272
01:04:55,560 --> 01:04:57,040
Speaker 2: I remember I was talking to my brother, It's probably

1273
01:04:57,040 --> 01:05:00,320
Speaker 2: about a year ago, and I go, maybe maybe should

1274
01:05:00,320 --> 01:05:02,240
Speaker 2: just hang it up. Maybe I should. He lives like

1275
01:05:02,920 --> 01:05:05,400
Speaker 2: he lives out in middle of nowhere Georgia, and he

1276
01:05:05,440 --> 01:05:11,440
Speaker 2: builds homes, and I go, maybe I was trying to

1277
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:13,960
Speaker 2: kind of find my way here and try to do it,

1278
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:17,720
Speaker 2: and also being in a relationship and one thing to

1279
01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:21,320
Speaker 2: have a family, and I go, I'm struggling to be

1280
01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:26,000
Speaker 2: able to do this, and I go, maybe I should

1281
01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:29,240
Speaker 2: just move out to where it can work for you

1282
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:34,040
Speaker 2: and like build homes. He goes, Dude, you would be

1283
01:05:34,360 --> 01:05:38,400
Speaker 2: so pissed, you'd be so resentful, and he goes, Honestly,

1284
01:05:39,080 --> 01:05:42,919
Speaker 2: you would go to home depot and try to chat

1285
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:45,120
Speaker 2: up the cashier to try to get you would still

1286
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 2: be doing it. Yeah, that doesn't solve it, is what

1287
01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:52,760
Speaker 2: I'm saying, goes, So I think whether it's whether it's

1288
01:05:52,960 --> 01:05:55,280
Speaker 2: touring one hundred tour days a year forever, probably not.

1289
01:05:55,640 --> 01:06:01,200
Speaker 2: But the idea of contribute maybe. I mean some guys

1290
01:06:01,280 --> 01:06:04,080
Speaker 2: used to do it and write a cartoon. They write

1291
01:06:04,120 --> 01:06:06,200
Speaker 2: a Sunday cartoon that was there. I would, I would,

1292
01:06:06,320 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 2: I would feel now. Jerry Seinfeld said somebody asked him

1293
01:06:11,880 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 2: why I never wrote a book, and he said, because

1294
01:06:13,320 --> 01:06:17,560
Speaker 2: I can't hear the laughs, which it is like, he goes,

1295
01:06:17,600 --> 01:06:19,280
Speaker 2: I couldn't you feel that, don't you?

1296
01:06:19,560 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 1: Yeah?

1297
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:22,120
Speaker 2: Because I yeah, heavily, because I for the last I

1298
01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:26,400
Speaker 2: remember it must have been that summer where I took

1299
01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:30,320
Speaker 2: three months off of Instagram, four months and I could

1300
01:06:30,400 --> 01:06:34,360
Speaker 2: still make Like with my therapist were I was like

1301
01:06:34,480 --> 01:06:36,800
Speaker 2: over kind of over leveraged in the social media and

1302
01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 2: he goes, well, you can still make the videos and

1303
01:06:39,320 --> 01:06:43,919
Speaker 2: then just get your guy to post them. I go, yeah,

1304
01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:46,320
Speaker 2: but I don't you know what I'm saying. Yeah, but

1305
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 2: I don't see. That's like I don't see if it's

1306
01:06:51,280 --> 01:06:54,120
Speaker 2: good or if Yeah, you know.

1307
01:06:54,200 --> 01:06:56,960
Speaker 3: I remember when we when COVID hit and we started

1308
01:06:57,000 --> 01:06:58,680
Speaker 3: doing these virtual shows.

1309
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, like people could tip you, yeah, And it was

1310
01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:06,160
Speaker 5: like such a great idea on paper. Do we still

1311
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,080
Speaker 5: play concerts? People could like buy tickets and watch us.

1312
01:07:09,160 --> 01:07:11,520
Speaker 1: And after one I was like, I don't do this anymore.

1313
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:12,080
Speaker 1: Yeah you didn't.

1314
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:19,520
Speaker 2: The horrible a transaction was the unhealthy part.

1315
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:24,160
Speaker 1: I guess. Yeah, No, I know. We need Yeah, we

1316
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:26,840
Speaker 1: needed the people. We needed, We needed feedback.

1317
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:28,840
Speaker 2: I wonder how the guy, the guy that writes the

1318
01:07:29,040 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 2: Sunday cartoon knows, right.

1319
01:07:33,240 --> 01:07:36,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would get him. Let's get him on all right.

1320
01:07:36,360 --> 01:07:42,000
Speaker 2: So like let's say like let's say like Dilbert, Okay,

1321
01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:45,200
Speaker 2: So he would be like, all right, what's another one

1322
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 2: Garfield family circus?

1323
01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:48,520
Speaker 1: Hey, how many.

1324
01:07:49,280 --> 01:07:53,800
Speaker 2: How many publications are we in? And did we how

1325
01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:56,640
Speaker 2: many is Garfield in? And how many is what's the

1326
01:07:56,680 --> 01:08:04,480
Speaker 2: guy renting the giraffe with the kids.

1327
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:05,000
Speaker 1: That's what I'm thinking.

1328
01:08:05,280 --> 01:08:08,640
Speaker 2: So he goes, well, how many are they in? I'm

1329
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:12,320
Speaker 2: sure even that's just that's before social media. So you go, oh,

1330
01:08:12,360 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 2: I bet everybody's on this. Yeah, and he goes, we have.

1331
01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 1: To get absolutely there.

1332
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:22,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can't. You kind of I guess. I think

1333
01:08:22,479 --> 01:08:24,080
Speaker 2: I guess we're saying.

1334
01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:26,439
Speaker 1: You can't.

1335
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 2: Like if if you struggle. I've struggled with my own

1336
01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:37,640
Speaker 2: you know, journey and lust and everything like that, it's like,

1337
01:08:37,640 --> 01:08:39,160
Speaker 2: all right, I'm just going to be a monk and

1338
01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:44,200
Speaker 2: live in the woods. You're like, WHOA. That unfortunately doesn't

1339
01:08:44,240 --> 01:08:44,560
Speaker 2: solve it.

1340
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:47,400
Speaker 1: It doesn't. There was hundreds of years they tried that,

1341
01:08:47,640 --> 01:08:49,280
Speaker 1: they tried, they tried.

1342
01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:51,639
Speaker 2: So I think as Christian, you go, well, I'm gonna

1343
01:08:52,160 --> 01:08:55,720
Speaker 2: well that you still have your thoughts and you still

1344
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:59,439
Speaker 2: so I think all these things that were saying very

1345
01:09:01,439 --> 01:09:03,840
Speaker 2: human feelings, I would imagine everbody's gonna listen, it's gonna

1346
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:07,000
Speaker 2: be like yeah, yeah, And and the goal is maybe

1347
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:11,439
Speaker 2: not to the takeaways, maybe to to not not have

1348
01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,000
Speaker 2: them or to feel bad about having them.

1349
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:16,920
Speaker 3: I started so crazy when people used to ask me,

1350
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:19,360
Speaker 3: what what's your favorite song to perform live? I get

1351
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:22,040
Speaker 3: that question all the time, and I always thought that

1352
01:09:22,160 --> 01:09:24,920
Speaker 3: is such a stupid question. It's the one that they

1353
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:26,040
Speaker 3: cheer them the biggest one.

1354
01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:26,599
Speaker 1: What Yeah.

1355
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:29,240
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter what I like or what I how

1356
01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,560
Speaker 3: how the band sounds, or how artistic or creative, or

1357
01:09:32,600 --> 01:09:35,720
Speaker 3: the depth of the lyrics. It's whatever song they cheer

1358
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:39,240
Speaker 3: the loudest, which actually changes market to market sometimes, And.

1359
01:09:39,280 --> 01:09:41,840
Speaker 2: If somebody said something that wasn't that, you'd be like,

1360
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,120
Speaker 2: you're lying, yeah, and that's what that's what.

1361
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:44,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1362
01:09:45,600 --> 01:09:49,080
Speaker 2: Has disenfranchised a lot of people from Christianity that you're

1363
01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:53,400
Speaker 2: You're like, I know what my brain is and I'm

1364
01:09:53,400 --> 01:09:54,960
Speaker 2: a monster, or.

1365
01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 1: Like you you and theological gain too.

1366
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:02,680
Speaker 2: You're hateful your self fish and you go and you go,

1367
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:08,120
Speaker 2: there's no way that this guy's biggest struggle was that

1368
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:11,360
Speaker 2: he ran into CBS and parked in the handicap parking spot.

1369
01:10:11,400 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 2: There's no way. And then you go, well, like you know,

1370
01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,840
Speaker 2: I was like I'm thinking about murdering my boss or

1371
01:10:19,920 --> 01:10:20,280
Speaker 2: what you know?

1372
01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:21,519
Speaker 1: And then you go.

1373
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:28,320
Speaker 2: And then when somebody does say, yeah, I'm having a

1374
01:10:28,400 --> 01:10:31,360
Speaker 2: hard time. I feel like ten times out of ten

1375
01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:32,360
Speaker 2: everybody else was liked.

1376
01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:32,880
Speaker 1: Good for you.

1377
01:10:33,479 --> 01:10:37,280
Speaker 3: Jesus was the only answer against all the voices of

1378
01:10:37,320 --> 01:10:40,400
Speaker 3: the world for me during heavy struggles in my life,

1379
01:10:40,520 --> 01:10:42,840
Speaker 3: Jesus was the only one when everyone's like, you're a

1380
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:46,280
Speaker 3: good person, forget you need to forgive yourself, grangdeer, you

1381
01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:47,600
Speaker 3: need to love yourself.

1382
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:52,160
Speaker 1: Jesus was the only one that goes, no, no, come

1383
01:10:52,240 --> 01:10:55,800
Speaker 1: to me. I heal you. I make you clean. I

1384
01:10:56,040 --> 01:10:59,040
Speaker 1: forgive you, not because on what you've done, but what

1385
01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:02,800
Speaker 1: I've done. I heal you. Yes, you're a bad person.

1386
01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:06,920
Speaker 1: I make you obviously, you know. And everyone resonates that.

1387
01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:10,320
Speaker 1: What they what we don't resonate with is you're a

1388
01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:13,599
Speaker 1: good person. We know you're a good person.

1389
01:11:14,080 --> 01:11:16,360
Speaker 3: You just need to love yourself more, or you need

1390
01:11:16,439 --> 01:11:20,560
Speaker 3: to forgive yourself more. And I remember, like, what's the

1391
01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:24,439
Speaker 3: mechanism that would like what practically, how do I forgive myself?

1392
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:26,479
Speaker 3: How do I love myself more?

1393
01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:27,880
Speaker 2: Tell me how to do that?

1394
01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:28,479
Speaker 1: And you can't.

1395
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:33,920
Speaker 2: You can't. There's no more. There's no there's no end

1396
01:11:33,960 --> 01:11:36,080
Speaker 2: to that, no end, there's no end to that. And

1397
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:41,160
Speaker 2: and and everybody. What's wild about what you said is

1398
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:44,560
Speaker 2: that you could live in that today and then go

1399
01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:47,439
Speaker 2: back and pick up the other stuff tomorrow. Yeah, it doesn't.

1400
01:11:47,680 --> 01:11:51,720
Speaker 2: It's you're like, I'm a yeah, and I think I

1401
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:58,920
Speaker 2: I in my book, I said when I remember my

1402
01:11:59,000 --> 01:12:00,600
Speaker 2: darkest point, I was some in the middle of I

1403
01:12:00,760 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 2: was like an airport holiday in like drunk and trying

1404
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:06,800
Speaker 2: to like call this woman or something to come over

1405
01:12:06,840 --> 01:12:09,000
Speaker 2: to my room or something. That's back in twenty seventeen,

1406
01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:13,599
Speaker 2: I remember telling my therapist that story and he goes,

1407
01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:14,479
Speaker 2: what do you think?

1408
01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:16,240
Speaker 1: What do you think.

1409
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:20,560
Speaker 2: Jesus would think about you being doing that? Well, the

1410
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:22,840
Speaker 2: way I was raised is he'd be like, I can't

1411
01:12:22,880 --> 01:12:25,760
Speaker 2: believe you just did that show to church. This is embarrassing.

1412
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:30,000
Speaker 2: I can't you don't say that you're a representative of me.

1413
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:32,040
Speaker 2: I would walk by this bar and go I can't

1414
01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:34,920
Speaker 2: believe he's in there, and my therapist is not for me.

1415
01:12:35,040 --> 01:12:37,599
Speaker 1: I can't. My therapist goes, I think.

1416
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:40,720
Speaker 2: Jesus would sit down next to you, goes, and I'll

1417
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:44,559
Speaker 2: be like, I'm feeling sad. He goes, Yeah, he goes.

1418
01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:49,640
Speaker 2: You know, we think about Jesus's He's perfect and you go.

1419
01:12:49,800 --> 01:12:53,080
Speaker 2: But he was sad. All his friends left him. He

1420
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:56,280
Speaker 2: was one hundred percent human, he was alone. His best

1421
01:12:56,320 --> 01:13:00,200
Speaker 2: friend Lazarus died. He goes, all these feelings, I I

1422
01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 2: have them, and he'd probably sit down right next to

1423
01:13:03,520 --> 01:13:09,120
Speaker 2: you at the bar, goes, hey, if you get another

1424
01:13:09,200 --> 01:13:10,720
Speaker 2: couple of shots here and go up to your room

1425
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:13,880
Speaker 2: with that woman is like, that's that's not the best

1426
01:13:14,120 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 2: that's not the best plan for you. But he goes,

1427
01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:18,960
Speaker 2: if you did that, I would understand. Now, I don't

1428
01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:20,719
Speaker 2: let you have the hook. I don't I don't agree

1429
01:13:20,760 --> 01:13:22,479
Speaker 2: with it, and he goes, I got a better plan

1430
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:24,960
Speaker 2: for you. I have a better way for you. But

1431
01:13:25,479 --> 01:13:28,599
Speaker 2: when you're so lost, we were talking about that before

1432
01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:30,519
Speaker 2: we started, Like we only have a couple of cards

1433
01:13:30,600 --> 01:13:32,840
Speaker 2: to play, so you're like, this is the only one.

1434
01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:35,040
Speaker 2: This alcohol one is the card I know how to play.

1435
01:13:35,120 --> 01:13:35,479
Speaker 1: That's right.

1436
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:38,240
Speaker 2: This, this gambling one is the card I know how

1437
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:41,760
Speaker 2: to play. This anger one, this is the car I

1438
01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:47,760
Speaker 2: only I'm I'm upset, I'm i'm uh depressed, I'm sad,

1439
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,600
Speaker 2: I'm alone. What cards do you have to play? And

1440
01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:54,639
Speaker 2: if you go, I'm gonna get drunk. I'm gonna get high.

1441
01:13:54,720 --> 01:13:58,000
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna go look for some attention on

1446
01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 1: I live that. Ye Jesus would sit next to you

1447
01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:13,600
Speaker 1: and say, I know you want that.

1448
01:14:14,680 --> 01:14:15,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, He's not gonna shame.

1449
01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:16,280
Speaker 1: That's what I think.

1450
01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:17,840
Speaker 2: That's what we're saying, I know you want that, yeah,

1451
01:14:18,200 --> 01:14:20,800
Speaker 2: instead of saying you shouldn't want that, or you you

1452
01:14:20,920 --> 01:14:24,080
Speaker 2: don't want that, Chris, you don't want you or or

1453
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:28,000
Speaker 2: slap your hand, you go. I understand why you're reaching

1454
01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:28,240
Speaker 2: for that.

1455
01:14:28,400 --> 01:14:29,840
Speaker 1: Yea, I know. I know.

1456
01:14:30,240 --> 01:14:31,479
Speaker 2: God s crime.

1457
01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:32,360
Speaker 1: He just looked to me.

1458
01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:35,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he says, you don't know me well enough,

1459
01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:37,000
Speaker 2: that's why you want that. But I know you want

1460
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 2: that because I made your heart and I'm not all

1461
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:42,160
Speaker 2: the way you grew up and your pastor or your

1462
01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,400
Speaker 2: youth pastor was like I remember, we would wear like

1463
01:14:44,479 --> 01:14:47,759
Speaker 2: a rubber band if we lusted, we would like snap

1464

1466
01:14:56,720 --> 01:14:59,439
Speaker 2: there yet, but in a healthy place. As a believer,

1467
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:03,719
Speaker 2: they'll be like, that's there and that I'm not going

1468
01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:08,760
Speaker 2: there because I God has a better plan for me.

1469
01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:13,560
Speaker 2: Not have GPS on your phone so somebody doesn't know

1470
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:15,840
Speaker 2: that you. But if like this idea of if you

1471
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:19,759
Speaker 2: ever got free of all these limitations, you would go wild,

1472
01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:24,320
Speaker 2: you know, like the you got tracking on your phone,

1473
01:15:24,360 --> 01:15:26,200
Speaker 2: you got filters on your and those are healthy in

1474
01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:29,080
Speaker 2: a in a in some ways. To build up some strength,

1475
01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:31,080
Speaker 2: I needed to go to rehab where they literally kept

1476
01:15:31,120 --> 01:15:35,120
Speaker 2: me away from alcohol. Now I've been sober for five years.

1477
01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:38,040
Speaker 2: There's alcohol in the hotel last night that when I

1478
01:15:38,160 --> 01:15:42,599
Speaker 2: checked in, I go, I got a better plan.

1479
01:15:43,680 --> 01:15:45,840
Speaker 1: What is God's plan for you? You said that twice?

1480
01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:51,200
Speaker 2: Now I think my I was put on earth to

1481
01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:52,200
Speaker 2: do this.

1482
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:53,200
Speaker 5: You know the.

1483
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:58,320
Speaker 2: Uh was it Prefontaine or whatever? When he was running,

1484
01:15:58,320 --> 01:16:01,479
Speaker 2: he's like, I feel God's pleasure when I run. He's

1485
01:16:01,520 --> 01:16:05,080
Speaker 2: like a marathon runner. And I go, I love that

1486
01:16:05,479 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 2: movie because he's like, that's a very.

1487
01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:09,840
Speaker 1: That's not a.

1488
01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:14,400
Speaker 2: What you would call the ministry or like a noble.

1489
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:19,040
Speaker 2: He's like, I feel that God made my body like

1490
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:20,840
Speaker 2: this and when I use it in this way that

1491
01:16:20,960 --> 01:16:24,800
Speaker 2: I feel his pleasure. That's how I feel when I'm

Speaker 2: healthy doing stand up you healthy now, healthier, healthier. Yeah,

1493
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:33,600
Speaker 2: I don't. I never want to be the guy that's like,

1494
01:16:33,680 --> 01:16:36,120
Speaker 2: I gotta figure it out. Follow me, I gotta figure

1495
01:16:36,120 --> 01:16:39,120
Speaker 2: it out a healthier Yeah, but I could.

1496
01:16:39,240 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 1: I could.

1497
01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:44,679
Speaker 2: I remember days, I mean, before I went to rehab,

1498
01:16:44,680 --> 01:16:47,120
Speaker 2: They're like, if you take this from me, I'm going

1499
01:16:47,200 --> 01:16:51,479
Speaker 2: down with it. And now, I mean COVID happened, we

1500
01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:53,840
Speaker 2: couldn't do it, and I just come out of rehab.

1501
01:16:53,880 --> 01:16:57,160
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm great, and everybody else's kind of

1502
01:16:57,200 --> 01:17:00,640
Speaker 2: falling apart, and I think, yeah, I think.

1503
01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:02,680
Speaker 1: That's it.

1504
01:17:02,760 --> 01:17:08,320
Speaker 2: Every day struggle for me, balancing the validation of the

1505
01:17:08,439 --> 01:17:10,200
Speaker 2: I'm probably gonna go check in a month how this

1506
01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:13,000
Speaker 2: one did versus the other ones that you released before

1507
01:17:13,040 --> 01:17:15,840
Speaker 2: and after I did that with my assistant. I go, hey,

1508
01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:17,880
Speaker 2: look at all these pods I was on. Check just

1509
01:17:18,040 --> 01:17:20,200
Speaker 2: check the views, and we.

1510
01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:21,720
Speaker 1: Need a good title in thumbnail.

1511
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:24,759
Speaker 2: Or else I'm going to go back to rehab.

1512
01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:27,719
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, do you remember when you became a Christian?

1513
01:17:27,880 --> 01:17:29,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, my dad.

1514
01:17:31,000 --> 01:17:33,200
Speaker 1: Two thousand and what was the date.

1515
01:17:34,800 --> 01:17:37,439
Speaker 2: I was nine? I was born in nineteen eighty four,

1516
01:17:37,520 --> 01:17:39,120
Speaker 2: so it be nineteen ninety three. I think it was

1517
01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 2: August seventh. My dad still has it. He has it

1518
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:46,519
Speaker 2: like a two by four and he was he was

1519
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:49,479
Speaker 2: building the an addition on our house and he's like, John,

1520
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:52,360
Speaker 2: come over here. And he drew out with a construction

1521
01:17:52,520 --> 01:17:56,920
Speaker 2: pen the you know, like the cliff and then the

1522
01:17:57,000 --> 01:17:58,960
Speaker 2: other cliff, the gods over here where we're here in

1523
01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,720
Speaker 2: the cross, and he like true. And I'd obviously been

1524
01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:04,680
Speaker 2: in church and he's like, what do you want to

1525
01:18:05,520 --> 01:18:08,800
Speaker 2: accept Christ into your life? And I said, yeah, I

1526
01:18:08,920 --> 01:18:11,240
Speaker 2: pray with my dad. And I think he still has that.

1527
01:18:11,600 --> 01:18:13,280
Speaker 2: I think he's waiting to give it to me before,

1528
01:18:13,320 --> 01:18:15,360
Speaker 2: like when I get married or something. I was like,

1529
01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:18,560
Speaker 2: I'm forty, Can I get the Wait, when do I

1530
01:18:18,600 --> 01:18:20,200
Speaker 2: get the two by four? It's got to be still

1531
01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:22,719
Speaker 2: at the house somewhere. Yeah, But that's an interesting journey

1532
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:29,799
Speaker 2: of picking it up and putting it down and leaving

1533
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:35,920
Speaker 2: it for years and but but never never being like,

1534
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:40,679
Speaker 2: it's all up you go. I think everybody. I said

1535
01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:42,920
Speaker 2: this on a podcast yesterday. If you go to open

Speaker 2: twenty comics, Eighteen of them will have a joke about

1538
01:18:52,920 --> 01:18:57,719
Speaker 2: Jesus and these are not these are he's not Christians.

1539
01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:01,160
Speaker 2: So so, but they grew up obviously they were in Nashville.

1540
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,800
Speaker 2: But but this is, this is everywhere though, everywhere I go,

1541
01:19:04,120 --> 01:19:07,080
Speaker 2: everywhere I go, so all these comedians that have a

1542
01:19:07,160 --> 01:19:12,559
Speaker 2: mind like me that I go, look at the liars,

1543
01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:15,800
Speaker 2: hypocritical judgmental my mom said she was a Christian and

1544
01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:17,559
Speaker 2: then cheated on my dad, all these things. But they're

1545
01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:21,160
Speaker 2: they're they're laying their head on the pillow and going

1546
01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:28,400
Speaker 2: it might be something to it. You know that there's

1547
01:19:28,439 --> 01:19:30,960
Speaker 2: no I've never heard a joke about Mohammed. I've never

1548
01:19:31,000 --> 01:19:33,400
Speaker 2: heard a joke about Joseph Smith. I've never heard a

1549
01:19:33,479 --> 01:19:38,160
Speaker 2: joke about all of them. And everybody is. And you'd

1550
01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:41,559
Speaker 2: be discouraged by that if you think very surface level.

1551
01:19:41,640 --> 01:19:43,719
Speaker 2: But if you think a little bit deeper, that should

1552
01:19:43,720 --> 01:19:46,679
Speaker 2: be wildly encouraging to every believer.

1553
01:19:47,040 --> 01:19:47,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, wildly.

1554
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:52,120
Speaker 2: And you go everybody's like it's not true, you go,

1555
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:59,160
Speaker 2: might be And I think that's what everybody has felt.

1556
01:20:01,920 --> 01:20:03,400
Speaker 2: I don't know what do you call the Holy Spirit

1557
01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:04,000
Speaker 2: or or that.

1558
01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:13,120
Speaker 3: They forgot the way you were raised already, Dude, I

1559
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:17,760
Speaker 3: was currently reading this book on Cortes from Quistador and

1560
01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:20,519
Speaker 3: he was going and as he was going into Mexico,

1561
01:20:21,000 --> 01:20:23,400
Speaker 3: he's going to all those pyramids, the same pyramids that

1562
01:20:23,439 --> 01:20:25,599
Speaker 3: people these days like go and take selfie and it's

1563
01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:28,720
Speaker 3: got nice flowers. And those were those were pyramids for

1564
01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:33,040
Speaker 3: human sacrifice. Those Aztecs were the priest were going up there,

1565
01:20:33,439 --> 01:20:36,000
Speaker 3: constant flow of blood on those pyramids, on the rocks,

1566
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:38,439
Speaker 3: cutting people's heads off, pulling their beating hearts out of

1567
01:20:38,479 --> 01:20:42,479
Speaker 3: their eyes, because Yeah, because they knew something in them

1568
01:20:42,600 --> 01:20:46,320
Speaker 3: was saying, we owe something to God and it it

1569
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:52,000
Speaker 3: requires a human sacrifice. It requires it requires blood. And

1570
01:20:52,120 --> 01:20:56,200
Speaker 3: you think about why are they doing that. When Jesus says,

1571
01:20:56,840 --> 01:20:58,920
Speaker 3: I'm the human sacrifice, I go the cross.

1572
01:20:59,160 --> 01:20:59,960
Speaker 1: It's my blood.

1573
01:21:00,560 --> 01:21:05,400
Speaker 3: I atone, I forgive because of my blood. Why all

1574
01:21:05,439 --> 01:21:07,720
Speaker 3: the way across the world in a different era are

1575
01:21:07,760 --> 01:21:11,120
Speaker 3: these people that have none. They have history, throughout history,

1576
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:13,560
Speaker 3: throughout history, all over the world, and they're going, it

1577
01:21:13,680 --> 01:21:15,000
Speaker 3: requires human sacrifice.

1578
01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:17,559
Speaker 1: I'm not forgiven. I'm wrong.

1579
01:21:18,160 --> 01:21:20,840
Speaker 3: There's something in me that's bad, and to clean me,

1580
01:21:21,439 --> 01:21:24,960
Speaker 3: somebody needs to die. That is that's the weirdest.

1581
01:21:26,520 --> 01:21:30,479
Speaker 2: How would you possibly have Yeah, and so yeah, you are.

1582
01:21:31,400 --> 01:21:33,960
Speaker 2: That's not an American thing. That's not a Western, that's

1583
01:21:34,000 --> 01:21:36,479
Speaker 2: not an enlightenment, that's not a technol. We didn't think

1584
01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:41,920
Speaker 2: that now for since Cana and Abel. You know this, Yeah,

1585
01:21:42,840 --> 01:21:50,160
Speaker 2: something we have to Yeah, there's there's there. Why don't

1586
01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:53,880
Speaker 2: you even your atheist? Why don't you it's just you

1587
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:57,519
Speaker 2: and this grandma? And why don't you kill her? Well?

1588
01:21:57,680 --> 01:22:01,639
Speaker 1: I don't, Well what, yeah, it matter? It doesn't matter.

1589
01:22:02,000 --> 01:22:06,120
Speaker 2: Well, karma stop? Why and then why do you feel?

1590
01:22:06,720 --> 01:22:11,040
Speaker 2: What is it when you help someone, when you look

1591
01:22:11,080 --> 01:22:13,160
Speaker 2: out for someone, when you put someone other in front

1592
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,280
Speaker 2: of yourself, when you serve, when you give.

1593
01:22:16,200 --> 01:22:18,080
Speaker 3: You should kill them? That would actually be a lot

1594
01:22:18,160 --> 01:22:18,920
Speaker 3: better for society.

1595
01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:21,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you should just kill it. He's just kind of

1596
01:22:21,760 --> 01:22:24,640
Speaker 1: wasting resources. Yeah, and he's not giving it.

1597
01:22:24,720 --> 01:22:28,080
Speaker 2: You should kill him? Why not? And that that's where

1598
01:22:28,880 --> 01:22:34,360
Speaker 2: that's where the message of Christ. And I like the

1599
01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:43,560
Speaker 2: idea that that Christ was always like, people are like,

1600
01:22:43,600 --> 01:22:44,160
Speaker 2: how do we do it?

1601
01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 1: What's the way?

1602
01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:47,559
Speaker 2: And he goes it's like kind of like a tree

1603
01:22:47,640 --> 01:22:51,240
Speaker 2: planted by a river, and right, it wasn't that he

1604
01:22:51,320 --> 01:22:56,000
Speaker 2: didn't say, are you the Christ? Oh don't think you

1605
01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:58,320
Speaker 2: know what? And it was always like it was always

1606
01:22:59,040 --> 01:23:01,519
Speaker 2: a parable. He's like, well, it's like a seed planet

1607
01:23:01,640 --> 01:23:05,880
Speaker 2: in uh and you go, it was up to that's

1608
01:23:06,320 --> 01:23:08,720
Speaker 2: like some of the loudest voices, and maybe in Christianity,

1609
01:23:08,760 --> 01:23:12,960
Speaker 2: I go to have some more confidence in it. People

1610
01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:16,040
Speaker 2: know a lot of these social issues are like, dude,

1611
01:23:16,040 --> 01:23:18,960
Speaker 2: we don't need to be yelling fighting with you. They

1612
01:23:19,680 --> 01:23:21,000
Speaker 2: I think at the end of the day, you lay

1613
01:23:21,040 --> 01:23:21,439
Speaker 2: your head on.

1614
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:24,080
Speaker 1: The pillow and you know, mm hmm.

1615
01:23:24,720 --> 01:23:26,880
Speaker 2: That's why it's thinking. It's beautiful about about the faith.
