1
00:00:07,266 --> 00:00:09,706
Speaker 1: The Season with Peter Scheger is a production of the

2
00:00:09,786 --> 00:00:25,426
Speaker 1: NFL in partnership with iHeartRadio. What's Up, everybody, Welcome to

3
00:00:25,506 --> 00:00:28,506
Speaker 1: the season with Peter Schrager. We are in the thick

4
00:00:28,546 --> 00:00:30,986
Speaker 1: of it in the NFL preseason now. Every single team

5
00:00:31,026 --> 00:00:34,266
Speaker 1: has played and as we record this, there was a

6
00:00:34,306 --> 00:00:38,466
Speaker 1: flurry of action around the NFL yesterday and I want

7
00:00:38,506 --> 00:00:40,986
Speaker 1: to hit two of the key moves, the first one

8
00:00:41,106 --> 00:00:44,706
Speaker 1: being Dalvin Cook signing with the New York Jets.

9
00:00:44,746 --> 00:00:46,546
Speaker 2: I think everyone's immediate reaction.

10
00:00:46,426 --> 00:00:48,746
Speaker 1: Was like, oh, okay, wow, like they're there, and what's

11
00:00:48,746 --> 00:00:51,986
Speaker 1: that mean about breethol I can tell you this, Dalvin

12
00:00:51,986 --> 00:00:52,626
Speaker 1: Cook is going to be.

13
00:00:52,626 --> 00:00:53,626
Speaker 2: A part of a committee.

14
00:00:53,746 --> 00:00:56,266
Speaker 1: They're going to rotate who hands the ball, and they're

15
00:00:56,306 --> 00:00:58,866
Speaker 1: going to ride the hot hand when it's appropriate. Dalvin

16
00:00:58,866 --> 00:01:01,466
Speaker 1: Cook is a nice to have, not a need to have.

17
00:01:02,106 --> 00:01:04,186
Speaker 1: Speaking with my Jets sources over the last several weeks,

18
00:01:04,186 --> 00:01:05,306
Speaker 1: they were always very interested.

19
00:01:05,066 --> 00:01:05,706
Speaker 3: In Dalvin Cook.

20
00:01:05,946 --> 00:01:08,866
Speaker 1: In fact, they brought him to practice a couple Sundays

21
00:01:08,866 --> 00:01:10,386
Speaker 1: ago and it was the practice that I happened to

22
00:01:10,386 --> 00:01:13,546
Speaker 1: be at and they let him just walk freely. Basically,

23
00:01:13,586 --> 00:01:15,866
Speaker 1: everybody want be in the state in the building, on

24
00:01:15,986 --> 00:01:18,946
Speaker 1: the field talk to whoever. And he was there tapping

25
00:01:19,026 --> 00:01:21,306
Speaker 1: up the coaches and dapping up Rogers and Heyan Rodgers

26
00:01:21,346 --> 00:01:24,506
Speaker 1: spoke for a while, but my big takeaway was watching him.

27
00:01:24,706 --> 00:01:28,986
Speaker 1: He was basically chaperoned by Woody Johnson and Christopher Johnson.

28
00:01:28,746 --> 00:01:30,426
Speaker 2: Are the two owners of the team. I thought it

29
00:01:30,466 --> 00:01:31,306
Speaker 2: was interesting.

30
00:01:30,986 --> 00:01:34,826
Speaker 1: Because at the same time Dalvin Cook is talking with

31
00:01:34,826 --> 00:01:37,586
Speaker 1: the Dolphins and at the same time Dalvin Cook is

32
00:01:37,586 --> 00:01:40,346
Speaker 1: talking to the Broncos. These are AFC rivals, one of

33
00:01:40,346 --> 00:01:42,546
Speaker 1: them in the division, one of them in the AFC West,

34
00:01:42,586 --> 00:01:45,146
Speaker 1: and I'm wondering what in the heck is going on,

35
00:01:45,266 --> 00:01:48,026
Speaker 1: And I thought it was interesting. The Jets guys told

36
00:01:48,066 --> 00:01:51,506
Speaker 1: me they wanted Dalvin to get a feel for what's

37
00:01:51,546 --> 00:01:53,706
Speaker 1: going on here, that they are really confident in the

38
00:01:53,786 --> 00:01:57,106
Speaker 1: vibe and that there is a contagious factor to the

39
00:01:57,226 --> 00:01:59,706
Speaker 1: energy that this team has right now. And they thought,

40
00:02:00,106 --> 00:02:02,426
Speaker 1: if Dalvin's considering us and it's gonna be us for

41
00:02:02,426 --> 00:02:05,386
Speaker 1: his other teams, let him know what he could have

42
00:02:05,506 --> 00:02:08,986
Speaker 1: if he joins this school here. In the end, that

43
00:02:09,146 --> 00:02:11,306
Speaker 1: energy was unreal that day. That was the day that

44
00:02:11,346 --> 00:02:13,026
Speaker 1: Alan Lazard caught a touchdown in the back of the

45
00:02:13,106 --> 00:02:15,866
Speaker 1: end zone fans were there channing Aaron Rodgers and it

46
00:02:15,906 --> 00:02:18,146
Speaker 1: was that back to Football weekend with the NFL, and

47
00:02:18,186 --> 00:02:21,666
Speaker 1: the juice was electric and the numbers worked out. I

48
00:02:21,706 --> 00:02:25,506
Speaker 1: think eight point six million, But to be completely candid,

49
00:02:25,866 --> 00:02:28,586
Speaker 1: it's more than I expected him having as a max contract.

50
00:02:28,586 --> 00:02:30,306
Speaker 1: It's seven base and then he can make one point

51
00:02:30,346 --> 00:02:30,866
Speaker 1: six more.

52
00:02:31,226 --> 00:02:32,186
Speaker 3: I thought that this late in.

53
00:02:32,146 --> 00:02:34,866
Speaker 1: The game August fourteenth, there wasn't a long line of

54
00:02:34,906 --> 00:02:37,226
Speaker 1: suitors who were bidding for him, that maybe you would

55
00:02:37,226 --> 00:02:39,346
Speaker 1: have to take a discount. That is not a discount,

56
00:02:39,706 --> 00:02:43,626
Speaker 1: yes against nineteen ninety five, rationally speaking running back to

57
00:02:43,626 --> 00:02:47,826
Speaker 1: other positions maybe, but in twenty twenty three and August fifteenth,

58
00:02:47,866 --> 00:02:49,706
Speaker 1: to sign a deal for eight point six million dollars

59
00:02:49,746 --> 00:02:51,586
Speaker 1: of a running back when you're not necessarily the number

60
00:02:51,626 --> 00:02:53,266
Speaker 1: one guy, that's pretty good money.

61
00:02:53,306 --> 00:02:54,386
Speaker 2: So how is he going to be used?

62
00:02:55,186 --> 00:02:59,506
Speaker 1: I think Breas Hall is still still targeted for a

63
00:02:59,546 --> 00:03:01,906
Speaker 1: Week one and I think he and Breshall both are

64
00:03:01,906 --> 00:03:03,306
Speaker 1: going to get featured in a lot of ways. And

65
00:03:03,346 --> 00:03:05,106
Speaker 1: I still think Brishall might be the number one guy.

66
00:03:05,626 --> 00:03:09,346
Speaker 1: So Dalvin Cook Bristol, they love Michael Carter who's there.

67
00:03:09,386 --> 00:03:11,426
Speaker 1: They drafted a rookie at a pit. Is he he

68
00:03:11,506 --> 00:03:14,186
Speaker 1: can scoot Bam Knight was good for them last year.

69
00:03:14,186 --> 00:03:17,586
Speaker 1: This's a loaded running backs room. I don't think this

70
00:03:17,786 --> 00:03:20,386
Speaker 1: is okay Dalvin Cook thirty carries in a game go,

71
00:03:20,626 --> 00:03:23,426
Speaker 1: But I do think there's an opportunity for Dalvin Cook

72
00:03:23,466 --> 00:03:26,586
Speaker 1: to get ten to fifteen carries early on, maybe fifteen

73
00:03:26,586 --> 00:03:29,186
Speaker 1: to twenty carries going, and it does make the Jets

74
00:03:29,586 --> 00:03:33,066
Speaker 1: much better. I'm bringing in my wonderful producer and friend,

75
00:03:33,106 --> 00:03:36,906
Speaker 1: Aaron wang Kaufman from an objective standpoint, not a Jets

76
00:03:36,906 --> 00:03:39,986
Speaker 1: fan standpoint, but in your case, a Bills fan standpoint,

77
00:03:39,986 --> 00:03:41,426
Speaker 1: which might not be really objective at all, but you

78
00:03:41,506 --> 00:03:43,546
Speaker 1: know what I mean, not a fan of the team.

79
00:03:43,946 --> 00:03:46,946
Speaker 1: Does it feel like this is a oh that I

80
00:03:47,066 --> 00:03:49,466
Speaker 1: must have? Or does this feel like it's a guy

81
00:03:49,506 --> 00:03:51,906
Speaker 1: who's at the blackjack table and it's like got sixteen

82
00:03:51,946 --> 00:03:53,986
Speaker 1: and he's like, ah, why not, we're feeling good, let's hit.

83
00:03:54,946 --> 00:03:59,866
Speaker 4: It feels a lot like just a totally different mindset

84
00:03:59,906 --> 00:04:02,546
Speaker 4: for the Jets. And I think of it a lot

85
00:04:02,586 --> 00:04:04,986
Speaker 4: like Brady, you know where kind of Brady went to

86
00:04:05,026 --> 00:04:07,106
Speaker 4: the bucks and was like I want to win, Like,

87
00:04:07,186 --> 00:04:09,226
Speaker 4: get me the pieces and Rogers coming in and you

88
00:04:09,266 --> 00:04:11,906
Speaker 4: had the interview with him where he he was like,

89
00:04:11,946 --> 00:04:14,106
Speaker 4: I'm gonna take less money because I want to put

90
00:04:14,146 --> 00:04:18,386
Speaker 4: the best players around me. It feels it feels like

91
00:04:18,386 --> 00:04:20,786
Speaker 4: like an all Star team and it's scary, and like,

92
00:04:20,866 --> 00:04:24,946
Speaker 4: you know that doesn't Yeah, you mentioned i isy Abanacanda,

93
00:04:25,066 --> 00:04:28,306
Speaker 4: you mentioned Bam Knight, who I really like. Michael Carter's

94
00:04:28,346 --> 00:04:28,906
Speaker 4: still there.

95
00:04:28,946 --> 00:04:29,746
Speaker 5: Like they have a.

96
00:04:29,866 --> 00:04:31,946
Speaker 4: Lot of guys and it's not even mentioning Breeze Hall.

97
00:04:32,026 --> 00:04:32,826
Speaker 5: Yeah that's huge.

98
00:04:33,066 --> 00:04:35,866
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're loaded at running back. Their biggest issue is

99
00:04:35,906 --> 00:04:38,466
Speaker 1: going to be the offensive line. But that's so many

100
00:04:38,466 --> 00:04:41,026
Speaker 1: teams in the league, and every team's an injury away

101
00:04:41,026 --> 00:04:43,546
Speaker 1: from their line being a thing. Look, I know fans

102
00:04:43,666 --> 00:04:45,586
Speaker 1: have been getting on me since the Rodgers interview that

103
00:04:45,626 --> 00:04:46,506
Speaker 1: I've been you know.

104
00:04:46,506 --> 00:04:48,026
Speaker 3: Pro Jets, Like it's not because of that.

105
00:04:48,066 --> 00:04:49,626
Speaker 1: The Jets are really good this year. The Jets are

106
00:04:49,666 --> 00:04:52,186
Speaker 1: playoff team this year. Like, they are really good this

107
00:04:52,266 --> 00:04:54,146
Speaker 1: year and this makes them even better.

108
00:04:54,226 --> 00:04:55,906
Speaker 3: So that's the Jets side of it.

109
00:04:55,946 --> 00:04:59,466
Speaker 1: But a couple hours before that, Ezekiel Elliott signed with

110
00:04:59,506 --> 00:05:01,666
Speaker 1: the Patriots, and I like that signing too.

111
00:05:02,066 --> 00:05:03,306
Speaker 5: Six million dollars.

112
00:05:03,346 --> 00:05:05,746
Speaker 1: That is a bargain for a guy like Ezekiel Elliott

113
00:05:05,746 --> 00:05:06,906
Speaker 1: who was hurt last year.

114
00:05:07,426 --> 00:05:08,986
Speaker 3: And again similar situation.

115
00:05:09,026 --> 00:05:11,146
Speaker 1: What I was saying with Cook and Hall, this does

116
00:05:11,186 --> 00:05:13,466
Speaker 1: not mean ramondre Stevenson is not the number one guy.

117
00:05:13,626 --> 00:05:15,826
Speaker 1: They love ramondre Stevens, and I know people at that

118
00:05:15,906 --> 00:05:18,386
Speaker 1: building that are like, our offense is going to be

119
00:05:18,866 --> 00:05:20,586
Speaker 1: what we get out of Mac Jones in the passing game,

120
00:05:20,626 --> 00:05:22,946
Speaker 1: and it's gonna be based around ramondre Stevens. And you know,

121
00:05:23,026 --> 00:05:26,346
Speaker 1: add Ezekiel Elliott and now you've got two running backs,

122
00:05:26,346 --> 00:05:28,426
Speaker 1: you've got a solid offensive line, and they did add

123
00:05:28,466 --> 00:05:30,986
Speaker 1: some some strength that receiver. That's better than last year.

124
00:05:31,026 --> 00:05:34,506
Speaker 1: And Bill o'bryan's called the shots. So Patriots quietly adding

125
00:05:34,506 --> 00:05:37,186
Speaker 1: Ezekiel Elliott for six million dollars on August fifteenth.

126
00:05:37,226 --> 00:05:37,986
Speaker 2: I like that too.

127
00:05:38,706 --> 00:05:41,626
Speaker 1: And with that, as we record this podcast today, I

128
00:05:41,666 --> 00:05:43,986
Speaker 1: just got the note that Anthony Richardson is going to

129
00:05:43,986 --> 00:05:48,146
Speaker 1: be the starter in Indianapolis, which is really interesting considering

130
00:05:48,866 --> 00:05:52,906
Speaker 1: his age, his experience in college, not even close to

131
00:05:52,946 --> 00:05:54,626
Speaker 1: some of the other quarterbacks that were drafted in the

132
00:05:54,626 --> 00:05:57,546
Speaker 1: first round, and what he has around him not exactly

133
00:05:57,586 --> 00:05:59,986
Speaker 1: an elite wide receivers unit. And we don't know what's

134
00:06:00,066 --> 00:06:02,706
Speaker 1: up with Jonathan Taylor, so thrown him to the wolves

135
00:06:02,706 --> 00:06:05,426
Speaker 1: a little bit. But you know what we've learned time

136
00:06:05,426 --> 00:06:07,826
Speaker 1: and time again, sometimes he got a sink or swim.

137
00:06:07,946 --> 00:06:09,706
Speaker 1: They're going with that method and the Colts are going

138
00:06:09,746 --> 00:06:12,466
Speaker 1: to start. Anthony Richardson, who threw an ugly pick six

139
00:06:12,506 --> 00:06:16,226
Speaker 1: that looked really technically wrong over the weekend, but also

140
00:06:16,346 --> 00:06:19,706
Speaker 1: had a beautiful pass deep that was incomplete but was

141
00:06:20,106 --> 00:06:23,306
Speaker 1: everything was done right on his end. NFL News, it

142
00:06:23,386 --> 00:06:25,706
Speaker 1: is coming, it is going, It is all over the place,

143
00:06:25,786 --> 00:06:28,026
Speaker 1: is updates day to day, and we are in the

144
00:06:28,066 --> 00:06:31,106
Speaker 1: thick of it already. And yet today is a special

145
00:06:31,146 --> 00:06:32,946
Speaker 1: day for a friend of mine. Jared Freed is a

146

149
00:06:42,466 --> 00:06:45,106
Speaker 1: Jared's got a special coming to Netflix. This is a

150
00:06:45,146 --> 00:06:48,906
Speaker 1: major deal for a comedian, huge placement. We know the

151
00:06:48,946 --> 00:06:51,546
Speaker 1: reach of Netflix, and for any comedian to get this

152
00:06:51,546 --> 00:06:53,666
Speaker 1: opportunity is really cool deal. And I'm proud of Jared

154
00:06:56,746 --> 00:06:59,826

Speaker 1: a comedian with some football ties, you'll see what I mean.

156
00:07:03,106 --> 00:07:04,386
Speaker 3: Mister Jared Freed.

157
00:07:09,826 --> 00:07:11,306
Speaker 2: Our guest is a friend of mine.

158
00:07:11,306 --> 00:07:13,506
Speaker 1: But long before we got to know each other, I

159
00:07:13,546 --> 00:07:15,506
Speaker 1: was a big fan of his comedy and his work.

160
00:07:15,546 --> 00:07:20,226
Speaker 1: And he's got a special that is hitting Netflix today today,

161
00:07:20,506 --> 00:07:23,746
Speaker 1: a Netflix special it's called thirty seven and single. There

162
00:07:23,786 --> 00:07:26,826
Speaker 1: are football ties to our relationship. Let's bring in the

163
00:07:26,866 --> 00:07:28,626
Speaker 1: great Jared Free. Jared, what's up?

164
00:07:28,666 --> 00:07:32,546
Speaker 6: Man, shregs. Thank you so much. It is such a

165
00:07:32,586 --> 00:07:35,706
Speaker 6: pleasure to be here with you. It is like, uh,

166
00:07:37,146 --> 00:07:39,906
Speaker 6: it's amazing. Because I was saying to someone else, I

167
00:07:39,946 --> 00:07:43,746
Speaker 6: was like, I you rarely make an adult friend. Yes,

168
00:07:44,666 --> 00:07:47,266
Speaker 6: you know, And I feel like I can say it confident.

169
00:07:47,386 --> 00:07:50,186
Speaker 6: We've become friends and that, you know, that means a lot,

170
00:07:50,226 --> 00:07:51,786
Speaker 6: Like you know, you don't go on like like we

171
00:07:51,826 --> 00:07:53,426
Speaker 6: went and got dinner, and I was like, I don't

172
00:07:53,466 --> 00:07:56,426
Speaker 6: think I can remember a time that I had like

173
00:07:56,466 --> 00:07:58,506
Speaker 6: a first dinner friend date.

174
00:07:59,386 --> 00:08:02,386
Speaker 1: It's not common, it's not something that most men do.

175
00:08:02,546 --> 00:08:04,466
Speaker 1: But it was one of those deals where we had

176
00:08:04,506 --> 00:08:06,906
Speaker 1: been texting, we have been dming, we have been laughing

177
00:08:06,906 --> 00:08:08,746
Speaker 1: at each other stuff. I came on your podcast and

178
00:08:08,786 --> 00:08:11,386
Speaker 1: I'm like, we should go out in New York City

179
00:08:11,426 --> 00:08:11,986
Speaker 1: and then we just did.

180
00:08:12,186 --> 00:08:13,706
Speaker 3: We're like, let's just go do it. And that is

181
00:08:14,226 --> 00:08:15,826
Speaker 3: I'm secure in that I loved it.

182
00:08:16,346 --> 00:08:18,186
Speaker 5: I loved it. I loved every second of it.

183
00:08:18,186 --> 00:08:20,786
Speaker 6: It made me like mad at myself that I don't

184
00:08:20,786 --> 00:08:25,786
Speaker 6: do it more often. Just two guys gabbing about Jewish

185
00:08:25,906 --> 00:08:30,146
Speaker 6: summer camp and you know, and people we know in common,

186
00:08:30,226 --> 00:08:33,066
Speaker 6: like it really felt like and and you know, it's

187
00:08:33,066 --> 00:08:34,506
Speaker 6: funny if you go to a if you go to

188
00:08:34,546 --> 00:08:36,666
Speaker 6: a restaurant like I, I do a lot of like

189
00:08:36,746 --> 00:08:39,466
Speaker 6: a Loane eating. Not to make myself sound sad, the

190
00:08:39,546 --> 00:08:42,066
Speaker 6: name of the special is thirty seven and single. Yes,

191
00:08:42,106 --> 00:08:45,146
Speaker 6: this all sounds sad, but when you're at a dinner

192
00:08:45,186 --> 00:08:46,786
Speaker 6: place and you have your headphones in and you look

193
00:08:46,786 --> 00:08:49,306
Speaker 6: around a restaurant, it is all female friendships.

194
00:08:49,346 --> 00:08:53,666
Speaker 5: Yes, it is not one. There's very few times.

195
00:08:53,466 --> 00:08:57,706
Speaker 6: Where you see two dudes just talking fantasy football, talking,

196
00:08:58,146 --> 00:09:04,546
Speaker 6: you know, talking sharing the hot gossip like Choke, the

197
00:09:04,586 --> 00:09:08,106
Speaker 6: spinachen art We we base made out. You know, we

198
00:09:08,786 --> 00:09:11,946
Speaker 6: ate from the same spinning Gennarto Choke dip cauldron.

199
00:09:12,106 --> 00:09:15,146
Speaker 5: So that's you know, that's that's that's enough for me.

200
00:09:15,386 --> 00:09:18,106
Speaker 1: Well, I think at you're a stand up comedian, and

201
00:09:18,226 --> 00:09:20,426
Speaker 1: what I love is that we we I went on

202
00:09:20,466 --> 00:09:22,386
Speaker 1: your podcast. I'm like, I really like this guy's stuff,

203
00:09:22,466 --> 00:09:26,066
Speaker 1: and it was oddly similar to my world in the

204
00:09:26,066 --> 00:09:27,586
Speaker 1: broadcasting world, and that it's like.

205
00:09:27,626 --> 00:09:28,346
Speaker 3: Dogg eat dog.

206
00:09:28,586 --> 00:09:29,586
Speaker 2: You're doing your own thing.

207
00:09:30,106 --> 00:09:36,666
Speaker 1: But you said it, you're like politicians, comedians and broadcasters.

208
00:09:36,706 --> 00:09:38,946
Speaker 1: We are the three people that travel all over the

209
00:09:38,986 --> 00:09:41,186
Speaker 1: country and see the darkest regions.

210
00:09:40,866 --> 00:09:42,306
Speaker 3: Of the of this fine place.

211
00:09:43,306 --> 00:09:44,546
Speaker 5: We see the whole country.

212
00:09:44,586 --> 00:09:48,506
Speaker 6: That's a Michelle Wolf thing that I extended to broadcasters

213
00:09:48,546 --> 00:09:50,626
Speaker 6: because when we were sitting together.

214
00:09:50,346 --> 00:09:53,186
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, you know, it's Michelle O.

215
00:09:53,266 --> 00:09:55,986
Speaker 6: Wolf always said politicians and comedians see the whole are

216
00:09:56,026 --> 00:09:57,426
Speaker 6: the only people that see the whole country. And then

217
00:09:57,426 --> 00:09:59,346
Speaker 6: I was thinking of you, and I was like, you're

218
00:09:59,386 --> 00:10:01,986
Speaker 6: in that group too, like we see. You know, not

219
00:10:02,106 --> 00:10:05,346
Speaker 6: many people spend a weekend in Buffalo, even though we

220
00:10:05,426 --> 00:10:08,946
Speaker 6: know Buffalo from football world, Like you know, we know

221
00:10:08,986 --> 00:10:12,586
Speaker 6: Buffalo and Green Bay because they are famous from football.

222
00:10:12,626 --> 00:10:15,466
Speaker 6: They are not famous from city and then they had

223
00:10:15,506 --> 00:10:19,266
Speaker 6: a football team like it, So not many people And

224
00:10:19,306 --> 00:10:22,306
Speaker 6: again I've just turned off all of Buffalo. They're the

225
00:10:22,306 --> 00:10:25,866
Speaker 6: most sensitive town in the world. They're a bunch of babies.

226
00:10:26,506 --> 00:10:27,666
Speaker 2: I always a comedy town.

227
00:10:27,746 --> 00:10:29,746
Speaker 3: Do they come out it stinks?

228
00:10:31,466 --> 00:10:32,106
Speaker 5: Well they come out.

229
00:10:32,106 --> 00:10:34,426
Speaker 6: No, let me just say this, I don't none of

230
00:10:34,426 --> 00:10:38,026
Speaker 6: them will hear me beyond it stinks. I they are

231
00:10:38,106 --> 00:10:41,146
Speaker 6: just Buffalo needs you to love Buffalo?

232
00:10:41,266 --> 00:10:42,786
Speaker 5: Got it? Buffalo?

233
00:10:42,906 --> 00:10:44,786
Speaker 6: Kind of when you go on stage, it's like if

234
00:10:44,826 --> 00:10:49,386
Speaker 6: you don't say start your set by saying, let me hey, everybody,

235
00:10:49,386 --> 00:10:50,386
Speaker 6: I love it here, love.

236
00:10:50,306 --> 00:10:52,066
Speaker 5: The wings, love the wings.

237
00:10:52,106 --> 00:10:55,506
Speaker 6: You guys are great. Oh my god, you're you're the underdog.

238
00:10:55,906 --> 00:10:58,226
Speaker 6: Oh who couldn't cheer for the bills. If you don't

239
00:10:58,266 --> 00:11:00,826
Speaker 6: say that before you start your act, they won't let

240
00:11:00,866 --> 00:11:01,626
Speaker 6: you do your act.

241
00:11:02,026 --> 00:11:04,266
Speaker 5: It's just they're very sensitive.

242
00:11:04,346 --> 00:11:07,146
Speaker 6: And the worst type of sensitive people are the ones

243
00:11:07,186 --> 00:11:08,506
Speaker 6: that don't think they're sensitive.

244
00:11:09,066 --> 00:11:12,586
Speaker 5: You know you know so, and and there's only sensitive.

245
00:11:12,786 --> 00:11:15,666
Speaker 5: They're not sensitive aout material. You can talk about anything

246
00:11:15,706 --> 00:11:16,186
Speaker 5: you want.

247
00:11:16,666 --> 00:11:20,346
Speaker 6: You just better agree that Buffalo is a great place

248
00:11:20,386 --> 00:11:22,626
Speaker 6: to grow up and live and settle down.

249
00:11:22,706 --> 00:11:24,906
Speaker 5: Like that's it. That's all they want to hear.

250
00:11:25,026 --> 00:11:26,666
Speaker 1: We go through a wee good morning football, and it's

251
00:11:26,666 --> 00:11:28,506
Speaker 1: a lot of you don't respect our team.

252
00:11:28,746 --> 00:11:30,186
Speaker 3: You don't talk to our team. And it was a

253
00:11:30,266 --> 00:11:30,946
Speaker 3: Bills for a while.

254
00:11:31,026 --> 00:11:33,826
Speaker 1: Now we do, but like for years it was Bengals fans,

255
00:11:33,866 --> 00:11:36,786
Speaker 1: it's Lions fans. And it's because historically those teams haven't

256
00:11:36,786 --> 00:11:38,746
Speaker 1: been relevant towards the end of the season, but they

257
00:11:38,746 --> 00:11:39,586
Speaker 1: eternalize it.

258
00:11:39,786 --> 00:11:41,626
Speaker 3: And then it's like when we do talk about them,

259
00:11:41,946 --> 00:11:43,106
Speaker 3: we just get showered with loaf.

260
00:11:43,186 --> 00:11:46,426
Speaker 6: It's like, yeah, I mean, yes, they're the most passionate.

261
00:11:46,506 --> 00:11:48,786
Speaker 6: Those are all cold weather cities, those are all like

262
00:11:49,346 --> 00:11:52,826
Speaker 6: hard working cities that you know, Listen, I'm from outside

263
00:11:52,866 --> 00:11:56,666
Speaker 6: of Boston. I grew up outside of Boston. I nobody knows.

264
00:11:57,466 --> 00:12:00,506
Speaker 6: You think you're better than me, better than a Boston person.

265
00:12:00,986 --> 00:12:02,426
Speaker 5: Okay, nobody knows.

266
00:12:02,506 --> 00:12:06,666
Speaker 6: I mean, we were like seven championships in on on

267
00:12:06,746 --> 00:12:09,426
Speaker 6: this magical run and they were still going, they're not

268
00:12:09,466 --> 00:12:12,826
Speaker 6: talking about us. You know, they don't respect us. You know,

269
00:12:12,866 --> 00:12:15,586
Speaker 6: the Patriots way was all built on that kind of

270
00:12:16,066 --> 00:12:20,306
Speaker 6: you know, illusion that no one believes in the Patriots

271
00:12:20,346 --> 00:12:23,626
Speaker 6: and they're all looking over the Patriots. So I understand

272
00:12:23,706 --> 00:12:27,546
Speaker 6: that mentality perfectly well, but it is funny to like,

273
00:12:27,906 --> 00:12:31,586
Speaker 6: you know, now, as a Patriots fan of sorts. When

274
00:12:31,626 --> 00:12:33,226
Speaker 6: you go somewhere and you say, oh, I like the Patriots,

275
00:12:33,266 --> 00:12:35,986
Speaker 6: they think I started yesterday. People think that I like

276
00:12:36,066 --> 00:12:38,506
Speaker 6: jumped on the minute. You know, Tom Brady would had,

277
00:12:38,586 --> 00:12:40,266
Speaker 6: you know, a supermodel on his arm, and it's like,

278
00:12:40,266 --> 00:12:42,746
Speaker 6: that's not the case. I'm like you, I grew up

279
00:12:42,986 --> 00:12:45,146
Speaker 6: in an area where I like my team too.

280
00:12:45,386 --> 00:12:47,866
Speaker 1: You're like, I was there when Hugh Millen was the quarterback,

281
00:12:47,946 --> 00:12:51,426
Speaker 1: So back off. That's it, Jared. When you do the

282
00:12:51,546 --> 00:12:54,226
Speaker 1: comedy for a living, it's a lot of airports, it's

283
00:12:54,266 --> 00:12:56,426
Speaker 1: a lot of everyone thinks it's glamorous.

284
00:12:55,866 --> 00:12:57,706
Speaker 3: And but I think some of the stuff, the best

285
00:12:57,706 --> 00:12:58,666
Speaker 3: stuff you do is just.

286
00:12:58,626 --> 00:13:02,186
Speaker 1: Like Delta lounge humor and like getting into the Delta

287
00:13:02,266 --> 00:13:05,026
Speaker 1: lounge and you know when you're stuck at a connection

288
00:13:05,146 --> 00:13:07,106
Speaker 1: and you missed the gate and all that stuff. Like

289
00:13:07,946 --> 00:13:10,386
Speaker 1: That's why I'm enjoying your stuff the most. Your your

290
00:13:10,466 --> 00:13:12,626
Speaker 1: special thirty seven and single. But I think it's a

291
00:13:12,666 --> 00:13:14,946
Speaker 1: lot of like this is the ultimate compliment, but it's

292
00:13:14,946 --> 00:13:16,826
Speaker 1: a lot of like that Seinfeld style, like you ever

293
00:13:16,906 --> 00:13:19,106
Speaker 1: notice and right it hits it.

294
00:13:19,506 --> 00:13:21,986
Speaker 6: I appreciate it, you know, I take a lot of

295
00:13:22,026 --> 00:13:25,826
Speaker 6: pride in I'm just a normal dude, Like I like

296
00:13:25,946 --> 00:13:28,346
Speaker 6: my family, I go on dates.

297
00:13:29,266 --> 00:13:31,626
Speaker 5: You know, I don't have a sad tale to tell.

298
00:13:31,986 --> 00:13:34,226
Speaker 6: Some comedians are gonna come up and tell you their

299
00:13:34,266 --> 00:13:35,866
Speaker 6: tragedies and their upbringing.

300
00:13:36,266 --> 00:13:38,626
Speaker 5: I don't really have that to really talk about.

301
00:13:38,666 --> 00:13:41,346
Speaker 6: Like I, you know, grew up in a suburb outside

302
00:13:41,346 --> 00:13:43,026
Speaker 6: of a major city, you know, like.

303
00:13:43,186 --> 00:13:45,786
Speaker 5: During you know, nineteen nineties kid.

304
00:13:45,986 --> 00:13:49,106
Speaker 6: You know, so I'm I always consider myself the center

305
00:13:49,146 --> 00:13:51,946
Speaker 6: part of the bell curve, like I'm ten percent away

306
00:13:51,986 --> 00:13:55,626
Speaker 6: from the guy you're dating, your brother, your cousin, the

307
00:13:55,666 --> 00:13:57,546
Speaker 6: guy who dumped you, the guy you dumped, you know.

308
00:13:57,586 --> 00:14:00,866
Speaker 6: And when I talk about dating especially, that's kind of

309
00:14:00,906 --> 00:14:03,826
Speaker 6: why people have, like, you know, gotten involved with the

310
00:14:03,866 --> 00:14:05,986
Speaker 6: things I talk about because it's honest and it's fun

311
00:14:06,026 --> 00:14:08,386
Speaker 6: and it's light hearted and it's meant to connect with people.

312
00:14:08,426 --> 00:14:09,786
Speaker 5: I'm not looking to be.

313
00:14:09,866 --> 00:14:14,706
Speaker 6: Some special artists out there telling my jokes and you

314
00:14:14,746 --> 00:14:18,106
Speaker 6: know in an alley like I want the big crowds.

315
00:14:18,146 --> 00:14:20,826
Speaker 5: I want I want people to connect.

316
00:14:20,826 --> 00:14:22,786
Speaker 6: And like when I go talk about being in the

317
00:14:22,826 --> 00:14:26,266
Speaker 6: Delta Lounge and how I feel that there's too many

318
00:14:26,266 --> 00:14:28,986
Speaker 6: people in there and how there should be a tiered

319
00:14:30,186 --> 00:14:32,906
Speaker 6: you know, I just think the Delta lounge.

320
00:14:32,986 --> 00:14:34,626
Speaker 5: There needs to be levels.

321
00:14:34,666 --> 00:14:36,626
Speaker 6: There needs to be a pyramid, and the more miles

322
00:14:36,666 --> 00:14:38,386
Speaker 6: you have, the higher up on the pyramid you get

323
00:14:38,426 --> 00:14:40,506
Speaker 6: to go until there's one seat on the top.

324
00:14:40,546 --> 00:14:42,626
Speaker 5: That's a king's you know.

325
00:14:43,626 --> 00:14:45,706
Speaker 1: The one person who travels the most can have all

326
00:14:46,066 --> 00:14:48,186
Speaker 1: the free cottage, cheese and candle up they want.

327
00:14:48,626 --> 00:14:50,946
Speaker 5: That's right, and look down on everyone else. That's what

328
00:14:50,986 --> 00:14:51,346
Speaker 5: I want.

329
00:14:51,386 --> 00:14:55,186
Speaker 6: I want the ability to look down on lesser Delta

330
00:14:55,346 --> 00:14:57,746
Speaker 6: medallion you know, holding well, I'll tell you.

331
00:14:57,986 --> 00:15:00,546
Speaker 1: I was at LaGuardia, I guess it was LaGuardia a

332
00:15:00,586 --> 00:15:02,986
Speaker 1: few weeks ago, and there was a line twenty deep

333
00:15:03,026 --> 00:15:05,706
Speaker 1: to get into the Delta lounge, and that was frustrating.

334
00:15:05,746 --> 00:15:06,866
Speaker 3: I sat at the gate instead.

335
00:15:07,106 --> 00:15:10,386
Speaker 6: Horrific And you know, I remember they were everyone was

336
00:15:10,426 --> 00:15:14,346
Speaker 6: in one line. And then immediately I tweeted there should

337
00:15:14,346 --> 00:15:17,546
Speaker 6: be different lines for different tiers of Delta, and then

338
00:15:17,586 --> 00:15:18,106
Speaker 6: they did it.

339
00:15:18,146 --> 00:15:20,786
Speaker 5: They actually started doing a diamond There's a.

340
00:15:20,706 --> 00:15:24,346
Speaker 6: Diamond medallion lane that I strolled through and then I

341
00:15:24,586 --> 00:15:26,986
Speaker 6: cough on everyone in the other line. I just make

342
00:15:27,026 --> 00:15:28,986
Speaker 6: sure to cough on them, just to let them know

343
00:15:29,546 --> 00:15:30,586
Speaker 6: who's in charge, you know.

344
00:15:31,346 --> 00:15:34,066
Speaker 5: The little Guardia situation. I don't know what they're gonna do.

345
00:15:34,146 --> 00:15:37,586
Speaker 5: There better be another entrance that they're buildings.

346
00:15:37,786 --> 00:15:40,146
Speaker 3: It takes twelve miles to get to the to the gates.

347
00:15:40,466 --> 00:15:44,426
Speaker 6: What's going on you They must be building another entrance,

348
00:15:44,466 --> 00:15:48,306
Speaker 6: I hope to God because and this, this other entrance

349
00:15:48,386 --> 00:15:52,306
Speaker 6: must be a rine not to be believed, because to

350
00:15:52,426 --> 00:15:56,346
Speaker 6: not open it before as everything's going on. Because I've walked,

351
00:15:56,466 --> 00:16:00,146
Speaker 6: I have gotten back from like Albany, and it's taken

352
00:16:00,186 --> 00:16:03,106
Speaker 6: me longer to get from the gate to the uber

353
00:16:03,186 --> 00:16:04,746
Speaker 6: than it did to Albany itself.

354
00:16:04,946 --> 00:16:07,906
Speaker 3: It's crazy. They're doing construction. If you're not, this is

355
00:16:07,906 --> 00:16:10,146
Speaker 3: a very niche LaGuardia Airport tells it.

356
00:16:10,186 --> 00:16:11,186
Speaker 5: But I don't care.

357
00:16:12,666 --> 00:16:15,706
Speaker 3: They're doing They're doing construction. And they opened the new

358
00:16:15,706 --> 00:16:16,986
Speaker 3: gates and they're very luxurious.

359
00:16:17,026 --> 00:16:19,186
Speaker 1: There's like a Bubby's in one of them, and there's

360
00:16:19,346 --> 00:16:21,746
Speaker 1: right you know, there's high end stuff and you can

361
00:16:21,786 --> 00:16:24,226
Speaker 1: get dig in or you can have you know, whatever

362
00:16:24,266 --> 00:16:27,586
Speaker 1: it is. However, there's studing in construction on the outside,

363
00:16:27,626 --> 00:16:29,386
Speaker 1: so you have to walk underneath like a tunnel with

364
00:16:29,466 --> 00:16:32,626
Speaker 1: like wood like dangling from the walls, and it's forever.

365
00:16:32,706 --> 00:16:34,226
Speaker 3: It's a twenty minute walk.

366
00:16:34,386 --> 00:16:35,546
Speaker 5: Eight mile walk.

367
00:16:35,706 --> 00:16:39,066
Speaker 6: And if people are wondering, yes, thirty seven and Single

368
00:16:39,266 --> 00:16:42,466
Speaker 6: is about two minutes of dating material and then another

369
00:16:43,186 --> 00:16:48,826
Speaker 6: fifty eight minutes of LaGuardia Gate humor. So if anyone's wondering,

370
00:16:49,386 --> 00:16:51,866
Speaker 6: this is exactly what you're gonna get on the special.

371
00:16:52,026 --> 00:16:55,386
Speaker 1: The special is on Netflix and I watched it last night.

372
00:16:55,426 --> 00:16:55,906
Speaker 5: It's great.

373
00:16:55,986 --> 00:16:59,146
Speaker 1: It's an hour, it's awesome, and it just goes up

374
00:16:59,546 --> 00:17:02,186
Speaker 1: this week. And I'll tell you, you hit on something

375
00:17:02,226 --> 00:17:04,946
Speaker 1: that I kind of internalized and I felt bad about.

376
00:17:04,986 --> 00:17:07,826
Speaker 1: I've been married for for ten years now and I

377
00:17:07,866 --> 00:17:09,866
Speaker 1: was dating my wife for five years before that, so

378
00:17:10,266 --> 00:17:14,786
Speaker 1: I missed the whole online hinge, bumble tender, all that stuff,

379
00:17:15,226 --> 00:17:17,986
Speaker 1: and you hit on it. You're like, there's nothing worse

380
00:17:18,026 --> 00:17:20,106
Speaker 1: than the married guy who's like, let's take this for

381
00:17:20,226 --> 00:17:23,386
Speaker 1: a dabble and starts like almost condescendingly.

382
00:17:22,706 --> 00:17:25,546
Speaker 3: Like, oh, this is awesome. I would like, no, it's

383
00:17:25,586 --> 00:17:27,586
Speaker 3: not awesome. It sucks. I have done that to my

384
00:17:27,706 --> 00:17:28,426
Speaker 3: single friends.

385
00:17:28,466 --> 00:17:30,706
Speaker 1: And you caught me red handed where I'm like, let's

386
00:17:30,706 --> 00:17:33,066
Speaker 1: just see and I'm like, oh, this is crazy, and

387
00:17:33,066 --> 00:17:34,706
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, it's my life, dude.

388
00:17:34,906 --> 00:17:38,346
Speaker 6: They want to play your married friends. Want to play

389
00:17:38,506 --> 00:17:42,586
Speaker 6: with Tinder, play with hinge as if it's your like,

390
00:17:42,946 --> 00:17:44,946
Speaker 6: you know, your poker game on your phone.

391
00:17:44,986 --> 00:17:47,746
Speaker 5: Oh, let me just try it. You know that actually

392
00:17:47,786 --> 00:17:48,386
Speaker 5: happened to me.

393
00:17:48,866 --> 00:17:50,986
Speaker 6: This is what you know, you know the beauty of

394
00:17:51,026 --> 00:17:54,026
Speaker 6: dating apps. Dating apps were created by male nerds who

395
00:17:54,066 --> 00:17:57,946
Speaker 6: didn't want to get turned down. There's very few instances

396
00:17:58,026 --> 00:17:59,746
Speaker 6: of getting turned down on an app.

397
00:17:59,786 --> 00:18:01,626
Speaker 5: What you do is you swipe.

398
00:18:01,946 --> 00:18:04,546
Speaker 6: You swipe left if you don't like them, and you

399
00:18:04,586 --> 00:18:07,666
Speaker 6: swipe right if you do like them, wipe right and

400
00:18:07,706 --> 00:18:09,746
Speaker 6: you get a match, you go, oh, they like me,

401
00:18:09,826 --> 00:18:11,866
Speaker 6: of course. If you swipe right and you get no

402
00:18:11,986 --> 00:18:16,306
Speaker 6: match right away, your first thought, strangely, is oh, they

403
00:18:16,586 --> 00:18:17,466
Speaker 6: they haven't seen me.

404
00:18:20,506 --> 00:18:23,066
Speaker 5: They'll get to me later. They'll get to me at

405
00:18:23,106 --> 00:18:23,786
Speaker 5: one point.

406
00:18:23,866 --> 00:18:27,466
Speaker 6: So it's a very cocky place to be on and

407
00:18:27,946 --> 00:18:30,826
Speaker 6: so very rarely do you get hit in the heart

408
00:18:30,866 --> 00:18:32,626
Speaker 6: and the way you did in the old days that

409
00:18:32,666 --> 00:18:34,706
Speaker 6: I did in the old days, where you go up

410
00:18:34,706 --> 00:18:37,826
Speaker 6: to a woman with a flower in your hand, you

411
00:18:37,986 --> 00:18:40,946
Speaker 6: go on a date with me. That happens very that

412
00:18:40,986 --> 00:18:41,786
Speaker 6: doesn't happen on it.

413
00:18:41,786 --> 00:18:43,306
Speaker 3: Can you not pick up a girl though?

414
00:18:43,346 --> 00:18:44,226
Speaker 2: Like in a like?

415
00:18:44,226 --> 00:18:45,826
Speaker 3: Does that not happen anymore. We just go up to

416
00:18:45,866 --> 00:18:46,826
Speaker 3: a girl, or is that weird?

417
00:18:47,346 --> 00:18:50,506
Speaker 6: You can do that, but my point is really that

418
00:18:50,626 --> 00:18:52,986
Speaker 6: you can't that on the dating app.

419
00:18:53,106 --> 00:18:56,386
Speaker 5: It's the reason it exists is to not have a

420
00:18:56,426 --> 00:18:57,386
Speaker 5: public interaction.

421
00:18:57,506 --> 00:19:00,106
Speaker 2: No rejection, no rejection ever.

422
00:19:00,626 --> 00:19:02,826
Speaker 6: The one time I felt rejected on a dating app,

423
00:19:02,866 --> 00:19:04,906
Speaker 6: there was a girl I matched with. I'll never forget it.

424
00:19:05,186 --> 00:19:07,986
Speaker 6: I'm swiping when you know, hinge whatever, I don't remember

425
00:19:08,026 --> 00:19:11,306
Speaker 6: the app. And there's this girl and she's cute, and

426
00:19:11,386 --> 00:19:15,586
Speaker 6: she's like my type and Jewish and Penn State. I

427
00:19:15,626 --> 00:19:18,026
Speaker 6: went to Penn State. So I'm like, wow, and we

428
00:19:18,066 --> 00:19:19,346
Speaker 6: have all these friends in common.

429
00:19:19,386 --> 00:19:20,866
Speaker 5: You can kind of like, you know, you go look

430
00:19:20,906 --> 00:19:22,026
Speaker 5: them up. Oh my god, I know.

431
00:19:22,466 --> 00:19:25,346
Speaker 6: And I'm like and I'm send a message, no response,

432
00:19:25,386 --> 00:19:27,946
Speaker 6: but you go, I guess they haven't seen me yet.

433
00:19:27,986 --> 00:19:30,746
Speaker 6: And like you know, a little time goes by and

434
00:19:31,026 --> 00:19:33,546
Speaker 6: I messaged my friend that we had in common. I'm like, hey,

435
00:19:33,706 --> 00:19:35,546
Speaker 6: because this is what happens on a dating app. You

436
00:19:35,546 --> 00:19:38,746
Speaker 6: get attached to something that doesn't exist. It's just a match.

437
00:19:38,786 --> 00:19:41,386
Speaker 6: It's very small. And I text my friend. I go, hey, man,

438
00:19:41,826 --> 00:19:44,026
Speaker 6: you know this person I match with him on a

439
00:19:44,066 --> 00:19:46,826
Speaker 6: dating app. What's the scoop is really what I was wondering,

440
00:19:47,026 --> 00:19:50,306
Speaker 6: he goes. A day later he texted me, he goes, hey, man,

441
00:19:50,466 --> 00:19:53,266
Speaker 6: she said her friend was playing with the.

442
00:19:53,266 --> 00:19:54,506
Speaker 5: App and that's why you.

443
00:19:54,466 --> 00:19:58,786
Speaker 6: Guys matched and it's gonna be and then she Randy

444
00:19:58,906 --> 00:20:00,826
Speaker 6: Jackson me. She was like, it's gonna be a no

445
00:20:00,906 --> 00:20:04,506
Speaker 6: from me, dog, and that was it.

446
00:20:04,666 --> 00:20:05,466
Speaker 3: So it's crazy.

447
00:20:05,786 --> 00:20:07,666
Speaker 6: It's crazy, but this is what happens when people go,

448
00:20:07,746 --> 00:20:09,066
Speaker 6: I want to play with the app, but it's like,

449
00:20:09,266 --> 00:20:11,426
Speaker 6: how about not? How about you let me you know,

450
00:20:11,426 --> 00:20:13,266
Speaker 6: how about you fix me up with someone you're thinking

451
00:20:13,346 --> 00:20:16,746
Speaker 6: of me for? Like, that's the thing. Married people they

452
00:20:16,786 --> 00:20:19,746
Speaker 6: have to understand. All their single friends do want to

453
00:20:19,786 --> 00:20:22,586
Speaker 6: be fixed up. They want to be fixed up thoughtfully,

454
00:20:22,666 --> 00:20:25,106
Speaker 6: because what they'll say married people, what they'll do is

455
00:20:25,106 --> 00:20:25,586
Speaker 6: they'll go.

456
00:20:25,786 --> 00:20:28,266
Speaker 5: Want to meet my friend, and then you have to

457
00:20:28,306 --> 00:20:30,146
Speaker 5: beg You go, can I see a picture?

458
00:20:30,426 --> 00:20:33,506
Speaker 6: You're like, and now it's like and then they look

459
00:20:33,506 --> 00:20:34,866
Speaker 6: at you when you go can I see a picture?

460
00:20:34,906 --> 00:20:38,306
Speaker 5: They're like, who do you think you are? You? Yeah? Yeah,

461
00:20:38,346 --> 00:20:40,546
Speaker 5: what do you think? Well? She's not good enough for you?

462
00:20:40,666 --> 00:20:43,226
Speaker 6: It's like, how about you give me all the information

463
00:20:43,266 --> 00:20:45,106
Speaker 6: I would get on a dating app, but also with

464
00:20:45,186 --> 00:20:46,546
Speaker 6: your thumbs up approval.

465
00:20:46,866 --> 00:20:48,746
Speaker 5: That's what people want. We want to know that these

466
00:20:48,786 --> 00:20:51,226
Speaker 5: aren't these crazies that are out there.

467
00:20:52,186 --> 00:20:53,786
Speaker 1: You hit on something in your podcast couple of weeks

468
00:20:53,786 --> 00:20:56,306
Speaker 1: ago because I listen to your podcast Jaytrain, which is

469
00:20:56,386 --> 00:20:59,626
Speaker 1: I Love, and you were like, sometimes you'll see like

470
00:20:59,706 --> 00:21:02,346
Speaker 1: the same women on the dating apps for years and

471
00:21:02,386 --> 00:21:04,586
Speaker 1: they're always there, and then one day they'll just not

472
00:21:04,706 --> 00:21:07,586
Speaker 1: be on and you're like, it they found someone.

473
00:21:07,626 --> 00:21:11,266
Speaker 6: A proud of them, but proud of them, good for them,

474
00:21:11,306 --> 00:21:12,066
Speaker 6: happy for them.

475
00:21:12,586 --> 00:21:14,826
Speaker 5: That's the thing. It's like about whatever happened to that

476
00:21:14,866 --> 00:21:15,906
Speaker 5: one Whatever.

477
00:21:16,746 --> 00:21:18,746
Speaker 6: You see people around the city that I've seen, I'm like,

478
00:21:18,786 --> 00:21:20,306
Speaker 6: how do I know them? Oh, I've been looking at

479
00:21:20,306 --> 00:21:22,346
Speaker 6: their picture for eighteen years on the dating app?

480
00:21:22,866 --> 00:21:25,386
Speaker 5: I will say it is.

481
00:21:25,906 --> 00:21:28,666
Speaker 6: You know, the thing about dating, it's a very personal

482
00:21:28,706 --> 00:21:31,586
Speaker 6: thing that's not personal, you know, like everyone's just trying

483
00:21:31,586 --> 00:21:34,106
Speaker 6: to get to where they feel comfy, cozy. It's not

484
00:21:34,346 --> 00:21:37,906
Speaker 6: like there's no hatred in it, even though it feels bad.

485
00:21:38,066 --> 00:21:39,066
Speaker 5: So it is.

486
00:21:39,426 --> 00:21:41,986
Speaker 6: I love talking about dating stuff because and especially from

487
00:21:42,026 --> 00:21:44,186
Speaker 6: a male point of view, because there's not a lot

488
00:21:44,186 --> 00:21:45,946
Speaker 6: of straight guys that are out there kind of like

489
00:21:46,026 --> 00:21:49,266
Speaker 6: talking about in an edible way. So it's really nice

490
00:21:49,306 --> 00:21:51,106
Speaker 6: to hear back from like women. You know that for

491
00:21:51,186 --> 00:21:55,226
Speaker 6: the podcast, most of my listeners are women, and they're like, yo, okay,

492
00:21:55,306 --> 00:21:57,706
Speaker 6: it's nice to hear that. It was like not that

493
00:21:57,866 --> 00:22:00,546
Speaker 6: big a deal as maybe I made it out to be,

494
00:22:00,666 --> 00:22:02,506
Speaker 6: you know. And it's stuff like that where you see

495
00:22:02,506 --> 00:22:05,826
Speaker 6: someone for years, you don't wish them bad, you don't

496
00:22:05,866 --> 00:22:08,426
Speaker 6: wish them you know, you're just like, oh, good, find someone.

497
00:22:08,546 --> 00:22:12,466
Speaker 1: It's interesting because you're here talking about dating advice very relevant,

498
00:22:12,466 --> 00:22:15,866
Speaker 1: you do the Bachelor reviews, and then you also have

499
00:22:15,986 --> 00:22:17,706
Speaker 1: this other gear where like you hang out at the

500
00:22:17,746 --> 00:22:20,266
Speaker 1: Comedy Seller and you're with David Tail and Jim Norton

501
00:22:20,266 --> 00:22:21,986
Speaker 1: and whoever else, and you hang with that crowd like

502
00:22:22,226 --> 00:22:24,826
Speaker 1: I feel like you can go with any group because

503
00:22:24,826 --> 00:22:27,146
Speaker 1: it's pretty relatable. But you also have this like you're

504
00:22:27,146 --> 00:22:28,906
Speaker 1: a comedians comedian piece to you too.

505
00:22:29,426 --> 00:22:30,746
Speaker 5: I appreciate that.

506
00:22:30,906 --> 00:22:33,186
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I've been doing stand up every night

507
00:22:33,226 --> 00:22:34,146
Speaker 6: for thirteen years.

508
00:22:34,306 --> 00:22:34,426
Speaker 4: You know.

509
00:22:34,466 --> 00:22:36,466
Speaker 5: That's why this special is so special to me.

510
00:22:36,506 --> 00:22:39,706
Speaker 6: It's like, you know, this is a validating thing to

511
00:22:39,786 --> 00:22:42,906
Speaker 6: be on Netflix and to have an hour on there,

512
00:22:43,066 --> 00:22:45,466
Speaker 6: you know, and like, you know, at the Seller, it

513
00:22:45,586 --> 00:22:48,106
Speaker 6: was always like you know, at the Seller, it's people

514
00:22:48,346 --> 00:22:51,386
Speaker 6: just ball busting all the comics, just making fun of

515
00:22:51,426 --> 00:22:54,186
Speaker 6: each other before you go on stage. And like, you know,

516
00:22:54,266 --> 00:22:57,506
Speaker 6: the thing I would get for was like Jared watches

517
00:22:57,546 --> 00:22:59,666
Speaker 6: The Bachelor and thinks he knows things about dating, you know,

518
00:22:59,786 --> 00:23:03,466
Speaker 6: and and it's funny to kind of like have that known.

519
00:23:03,666 --> 00:23:06,666
Speaker 6: But like also you go on the same lineups as

520
00:23:06,746 --> 00:23:09,826
Speaker 6: so many different comics, and especially like, you know, my peers,

521
00:23:09,866 --> 00:23:12,146
Speaker 6: the people that I came up with, like you know

522
00:23:12,146 --> 00:23:15,546
Speaker 6: that they're getting success in their own ways and their

523
00:23:15,586 --> 00:23:18,386
Speaker 6: own arenas. Like I was out last night or two

524
00:23:18,466 --> 00:23:22,026
Speaker 6: nights ago with Nimesh Patel, who's like blown up on TikTok,

525
00:23:22,506 --> 00:23:23,546
Speaker 6: and then Michael Chay.

526
00:23:23,386 --> 00:23:25,946
Speaker 5: Who's blown up you know SNL who doesn't know Michael

527
00:23:25,986 --> 00:23:26,306
Speaker 5: cha and.

528
00:23:26,306 --> 00:23:29,506
Speaker 6: It's like we met at open mics, you know, just

529
00:23:29,626 --> 00:23:32,466
Speaker 6: putting our name in a bucket, and it's like this

530
00:23:32,626 --> 00:23:36,066
Speaker 6: amazing thing that and again and also Michelle Wolf, who

531
00:23:36,146 --> 00:23:39,026
Speaker 6: like I opened for you know as a friend and

532
00:23:39,266 --> 00:23:42,306
Speaker 6: peer on the road before she taped her Netflix special.

533
00:23:42,586 --> 00:23:46,026
Speaker 6: So it's like it's it's really like nice and awesome

534
00:23:46,026 --> 00:23:47,786
Speaker 6: that We all kind of text back and forth and

535
00:23:47,826 --> 00:23:50,466
Speaker 6: figure out bits together. We all care about stand up,

536
00:23:50,866 --> 00:23:53,586
Speaker 6: and you know, the thing is about stand up.

537
00:23:53,626 --> 00:23:54,466
Speaker 5: It's the prize.

538
00:23:54,506 --> 00:23:57,386
Speaker 6: You get to do stand up if you do the

539
00:23:57,466 --> 00:23:59,546
Speaker 6: other work, if you go to the open mics, if

540
00:23:59,546 --> 00:24:02,106
Speaker 6: you write, if you do the Bachelor live scream. Not

541
00:24:02,146 --> 00:24:04,946
Speaker 6: to say I don't love doing Bachelor stuff in podcasts,

542
00:24:04,946 --> 00:24:08,266
Speaker 6: but those are all just servis getting people out to

543
00:24:08,346 --> 00:24:10,146
Speaker 6: shows to see.

544
00:24:09,786 --> 00:24:12,146
Speaker 5: The hour, to see it the work in progress.

545
00:24:12,226 --> 00:24:14,946
Speaker 6: Like you know what's cool for me is I tape

546
00:24:14,986 --> 00:24:19,466
Speaker 6: this special thirty seven and single in December. I paid

547
00:24:19,506 --> 00:24:22,386
Speaker 6: for it, I made it, I went to sell it,

548
00:24:22,426 --> 00:24:26,266
Speaker 6: and it took all this time to sell. And during

549
00:24:26,306 --> 00:24:28,026
Speaker 6: that time, what am I gonna do. I'm not gonna

550
00:24:28,026 --> 00:24:30,386
Speaker 6: sit back and relax. I'm gonna go back on stage

551
00:24:31,026 --> 00:24:33,226
Speaker 6: time to start again. You know That's why I new

552
00:24:33,306 --> 00:24:36,906
Speaker 6: material and new material. Yeah, the most humbling thing in

553
00:24:36,906 --> 00:24:39,306
Speaker 6: the world. That's why you don't you don't mean me.

554
00:24:39,586 --> 00:24:42,826
Speaker 6: You meet a stand up comic, they're they're they're gonna

555
00:24:42,866 --> 00:24:45,506
Speaker 6: be self deprecating because you humble yourself every night. You

556
00:24:45,546 --> 00:24:49,226
Speaker 6: fail every night if you're trying, if you're trying new material.

557
00:24:49,306 --> 00:24:51,866
Speaker 6: So since December, I've been working on a whole new hour.

558
00:24:51,946 --> 00:24:54,386
Speaker 6: So like the thing I'm most proud of, I'm proud

559
00:24:54,426 --> 00:24:56,386
Speaker 6: of the special, I'm proud that it's on Netflix, but

560
00:24:56,426 --> 00:24:59,346
Speaker 6: I've moved on mentally, I'm on the new hour. You

561
00:24:59,346 --> 00:25:02,466
Speaker 6: know what does Tom Brady say, what's his favorite championship?

562
00:25:02,946 --> 00:25:06,946
Speaker 6: The next one? That's my favorite special? So right now,

563
00:25:07,066 --> 00:25:09,026
Speaker 6: at the end of thirty seven in single, I did

564
00:25:09,066 --> 00:25:11,586
Speaker 6: like a little you know how, like in the Marvel movies,

565
00:25:11,866 --> 00:25:15,666
Speaker 6: you saw little teas at the Marvel movies and the

566
00:25:15,666 --> 00:25:18,026
Speaker 6: credits they do a little post credit scene. I did

567
00:25:18,066 --> 00:25:20,426
Speaker 6: a post credit scene during the credits of my Parents,

568
00:25:20,866 --> 00:25:24,826
Speaker 6: like giving me. So the whole next hour that I'm

569
00:25:24,826 --> 00:25:26,706
Speaker 6: doing on the road right now, I'm doing, you know,

570
00:25:27,066 --> 00:25:29,426
Speaker 6: all new material from the special. So if you watch

571
00:25:29,466 --> 00:25:31,146
Speaker 6: a special and you want to come to a live show,

572
00:25:31,186 --> 00:25:34,266
Speaker 6: it's all brand new. And it's all about going on

573
00:25:34,386 --> 00:25:38,066
Speaker 6: vacation with my parents and what that's like and what

574
00:25:38,146 --> 00:25:41,906
Speaker 6: that feels like in the weirdness of that and the

575
00:25:41,946 --> 00:25:44,706
Speaker 6: weird and you know this, like you know how, some

576
00:25:44,946 --> 00:25:49,266
Speaker 6: families just have that financial tie together that we never had.

577
00:25:49,306 --> 00:25:53,146
Speaker 6: No other generation shared something like the family plan, the

578
00:25:53,186 --> 00:25:55,946
Speaker 6: way we do with our generation, Like, you know, like

579
00:25:56,026 --> 00:26:00,546
Speaker 6: no other generation called their parents the minute they landed

580
00:26:00,626 --> 00:26:04,066
Speaker 6: somewhere at thirty eight, like I'm calling saying.

581
00:26:03,906 --> 00:26:07,546
Speaker 5: Landed, texting landed.

582
00:26:07,626 --> 00:26:09,306
Speaker 6: I did that joke on the Tonight Show, and people

583
00:26:09,426 --> 00:26:11,466
Speaker 6: every time I go to Boca. My parents live in Boca,

584
00:26:11,506 --> 00:26:17,866
Speaker 6: of course they do the landed landed. Every Jewish mother landed.

585
00:26:18,026 --> 00:26:21,186
Speaker 6: I saw landed, and it's because their kids do it too.

586
00:26:21,266 --> 00:26:23,546
Speaker 6: So that's kind of the things I'm talking about for

587
00:26:23,586 --> 00:26:27,826
Speaker 6: the next special. So it again because I love stand

588
00:26:27,906 --> 00:26:30,706
Speaker 6: up and like, you know this, you're such like a

589
00:26:30,866 --> 00:26:33,546
Speaker 6: stand up supporter, and that's you know how we connected.

590
00:26:33,586 --> 00:26:34,226
Speaker 5: You knew, you know.

591
00:26:34,266 --> 00:26:36,946
Speaker 6: I was like, we know when someone loves stand up

592
00:26:36,946 --> 00:26:39,826
Speaker 6: and loves the comedy world. So when we first met

593
00:26:39,866 --> 00:26:41,906
Speaker 6: and started talking, I was like, oh, this guy knows it.

594
00:26:42,546 --> 00:26:45,946
Speaker 6: And it's like not many people do, you know, Like

595
00:26:45,986 --> 00:26:48,626
Speaker 6: this is a this is a more niche thing than

596
00:26:48,666 --> 00:26:49,506
Speaker 6: people want to believe.

597
00:26:49,546 --> 00:26:51,066
Speaker 5: Because you and I we.

598
00:26:51,026 --> 00:26:54,266
Speaker 6: Know football, we love football, but like we also know

599
00:26:54,306 --> 00:26:58,346
Speaker 6: the bravado of football. Dudes, every football fan wants to

600
00:26:58,386 --> 00:27:01,066
Speaker 6: believe they know funny, they know the comedians, they know

601
00:27:01,186 --> 00:27:03,946
Speaker 6: the guy. I get that because that you know, I

602
00:27:04,026 --> 00:27:06,586
Speaker 6: do shows where the women who follow me, they'll come

603
00:27:06,626 --> 00:27:07,906
Speaker 6: to the show and they'll bring the boyfriend.

604
00:27:07,946 --> 00:27:10,106
Speaker 5: The boyfriend be like, oh man, that was pretty good.

605
00:27:10,226 --> 00:27:11,506
Speaker 5: I haven't heard of you, I you know.

606
00:27:11,546 --> 00:27:14,306
Speaker 6: And then they name my friends to me to tell

607
00:27:14,346 --> 00:27:16,306
Speaker 6: me how much they know, and it's like, you know,

608
00:27:16,466 --> 00:27:20,466
Speaker 6: it's so it is just this like smaller world than

609
00:27:20,626 --> 00:27:23,906
Speaker 6: anyone would believe, and it's really nice that like when

610
00:27:23,906 --> 00:27:26,026
Speaker 6: people come to shows and appreciate it and like know

611
00:27:26,186 --> 00:27:27,066
Speaker 6: the world a little bit.

612
00:27:27,186 --> 00:27:29,666
Speaker 1: Well, I can only imagine the boyfriend's initial re actually

613
00:27:29,666 --> 00:27:33,066
Speaker 1: doesn't know you, And it's like the girlfriend's like, I

00:27:40,586 --> 00:27:42,906
Speaker 1: realize that your stuff is awesome.

618
00:27:42,946 --> 00:27:46,866
Speaker 6: And it's first they think I'm pandering to their girlfriend,

619
00:27:46,866 --> 00:27:49,466
Speaker 6: which isn't the case, and they realize very quickly that's

620
00:27:49,506 --> 00:27:51,586
Speaker 6: not what I'm doing and what it will.

621
00:27:51,626 --> 00:27:54,266
Speaker 5: Also, I had one instance I'll never forget.

Speaker 6: time we get in a fight, my girlfriend I she's always,

632
00:28:23,266 --> 00:28:29,746
Speaker 6: like Jared says, and you're like her teammate in our arguments.

633
00:28:29,906 --> 00:28:32,186
Speaker 6: And I was like, that's funny. I didn't think of

634
00:28:32,226 --> 00:28:34,426
Speaker 6: it that way. And then I'll never forget. It was

635
00:28:34,466 --> 00:28:37,906
Speaker 6: like a month later, I'm in an argument with my

636
00:28:38,066 --> 00:28:41,946
Speaker 6: own girlfriend at the time and she literally amd argument.

637
00:28:41,986 --> 00:28:44,306
Speaker 5: She goes, well, you said on the podcast. I was like,

638
00:28:44,346 --> 00:28:45,746
Speaker 5: don't listen to me.

639
00:28:46,546 --> 00:28:49,826
Speaker 6: Yeah, And I was like I never felt more connected

640
00:28:49,826 --> 00:28:53,066
Speaker 6: to someone who hated me in my entire life.

641
00:28:57,026 --> 00:28:59,506
Speaker 1: All Right, So you mentioned you're a Patriots fan, and

642
00:28:59,506 --> 00:29:02,386
Speaker 1: that's not usually we have on guests, and it's like, sure,

643
00:29:02,386 --> 00:29:04,466
Speaker 1: all right, this is a comedian, this is a celebrity,

644
00:29:04,506 --> 00:29:06,426
Speaker 1: and they love this team and that's the football tie.

645
00:29:07,146 --> 00:29:10,706
Speaker 1: Yours goes much deeper than that. You're wearing a Bears hat.

646
00:29:10,746 --> 00:29:14,866
Speaker 1: Can you explain Jared Freed's connection to the Chicago Bears.

647
00:29:15,186 --> 00:29:19,666

650
00:29:26,946 --> 00:29:28,346
Speaker 6: I don't know what to call I guess I would

651
00:29:28,346 --> 00:29:31,786
Speaker 6: call him a coach for the Chicago Bears. He works,

652
00:29:31,826 --> 00:29:33,866
Speaker 6: he's on the Bears staff. I don't want to speak

653
00:29:33,906 --> 00:29:34,706
Speaker 6: out of turn.

654
00:29:36,346 --> 00:29:37,746
Speaker 5: The meat, right.

655
00:29:37,826 --> 00:29:40,026
Speaker 6: I don't know where he stands on the float chart,

656
00:29:40,146 --> 00:29:43,026
Speaker 6: but he is. He's worked in the league. He worked

657
00:29:43,026 --> 00:29:44,786
Speaker 6: at the league office, and then he went to Miami

658
00:29:44,866 --> 00:29:47,906
Speaker 6: and now he's with the Bears. And you know, I

659
00:29:47,906 --> 00:29:50,186
Speaker 6: I follow him where he goes. I got skin in

660
00:29:50,226 --> 00:29:51,786
Speaker 6: the game, so to speak.

661
00:29:51,826 --> 00:29:54,026
Speaker 5: You know, like I cheer for the Bears like they're

662
00:29:54,066 --> 00:29:55,066
Speaker 5: my high school team.

Speaker 6: I feel emotionally connected to football in a way that

670
00:30:16,866 --> 00:30:19,466
Speaker 6: I felt it before, like you grew up a Patriots fan.

671

Speaker 6: I mean, I don't think that I'm not speaking out

696
00:31:22,786 --> 00:31:27,106
Speaker 6: of turn. He was sleeping on my couch telling me

697
00:31:28,066 --> 00:31:30,866

00:31:40,026 --> 00:31:42,186
Speaker 6: this like tiny New York City apartment.

702
00:31:42,906 --> 00:31:44,866
Speaker 5: And there was a point where it's.

703
00:31:44,746 --> 00:31:47,266
Speaker 6: Like he's and he's just trying to figure out his

704

Speaker 6: Miami game once and I and I realized I was

767
00:34:57,666 --> 00:35:00,706
Speaker 6: sitting behind the offensive coordinator's dad.

768
00:35:00,906 --> 00:35:02,706
Speaker 5: Like you start to realize who you're sitting around.

769
00:35:02,746 --> 00:35:04,746
Speaker 3: Now you're questioning the calls.

770
00:35:04,426 --> 00:35:06,866
Speaker 6: And well, then I did it by I did it

771
00:35:06,906 --> 00:35:08,626
Speaker 6: as a joke, like I'm a little drunk, I'm like,

772
00:35:08,626 --> 00:35:11,066
Speaker 6: I gotta put this guy. I go, every player go,

773
00:35:11,186 --> 00:35:13,826
Speaker 6: who is calling these plays?

774
00:35:14,386 --> 00:35:17,026
Speaker 5: And you just see the dad like kind of turn around.

775
00:35:17,226 --> 00:35:19,786
Speaker 6: And then when he finally got mad enough to turn

815
00:36:49,906 --> 00:36:53,786
Speaker 6: So and we really connected over that, and you know

816
00:36:54,066 --> 00:36:56,706
Speaker 6: that was us becoming closer friends and creating a bond

817
00:36:56,746 --> 00:36:59,786
Speaker 6: over comedy, and like, you know, and I would I

818
00:36:59,826 --> 00:37:02,666

819
00:37:02,746 --> 00:37:06,146
Speaker 5: Do that without my brother. So it's like it all translates.

820
00:37:06,546 --> 00:37:08,466
Speaker 1: So for me, like when I was growing up, it

821
00:37:08,666 --> 00:37:11,226
Speaker 1: was you know, like, wow, look at Dick Shap what

822
00:37:11,266 --> 00:37:13,826
Speaker 1: he gets to do. Look at Roy Firestone interviewing people,

823
00:37:14,106 --> 00:37:16,466
Speaker 1: or oh my god, a Madrashott is on the court

824
00:37:16,506 --> 00:37:17,306
Speaker 1: interviewing players.

825
00:37:17,306 --> 00:37:18,106
Speaker 2: Can you imagine?

826
00:37:18,426 --> 00:37:19,626
Speaker 3: Who were those guys for.

00:37:19,626 --> 00:37:20,226
Speaker 2: You in comedy?

828
00:37:20,226 --> 00:37:22,106
Speaker 1: And was that really a thing with you in comedy?

829
00:37:22,106 --> 00:37:23,826
Speaker 1: Were you one of these snl nerds who would sit

830
00:37:23,826 --> 00:37:25,546
Speaker 1: home and watch the tape of Wayne's World over and

831
00:37:25,546 --> 00:37:27,586
Speaker 1: over again, or like, was this something where you came

832
00:37:27,626 --> 00:37:29,026
Speaker 1: at it from a different angle and it wasn't like

833
00:37:29,066 --> 00:37:30,506
Speaker 1: you worshiped comedy as a kid.

834
00:37:31,026 --> 00:37:36,066
Speaker 6: Never never liked the big comedy nerd. I liked making

835
00:37:36,106 --> 00:37:39,706
Speaker 6: my friends laugh. I liked writing on email to my

836
00:37:39,866 --> 00:37:42,346
Speaker 6: group of friends and ball busting.

837
00:37:42,306 --> 00:37:44,026
Speaker 2: And having the message board.

838
00:37:44,306 --> 00:37:47,586
Speaker 6: Oh absolutely, Then when having one person go off email

839
00:37:47,626 --> 00:37:50,226
Speaker 6: to email, you individually to be like, oh my god,

840
00:37:50,226 --> 00:37:53,266
Speaker 6: I'm dying at my desk. That's the that would get

841
00:37:53,306 --> 00:37:57,666
Speaker 6: me off. And then the one special I really loved,

842
00:37:57,706 --> 00:38:00,346
Speaker 6: and it was on a thousand times, and I would say,

843
00:38:00,506 --> 00:38:02,506
Speaker 6: I I emulate this comic.

844
00:38:03,986 --> 00:38:07,946
Speaker 1: Oh, Kevin James was saying premium Blend go which one.

845
00:38:08,546 --> 00:38:10,426
Speaker 5: No, Kevin James sweat the small stuff.

846
00:38:10,426 --> 00:38:13,546
Speaker 6: It's on YouTube. It's still most of the bits still

847
00:38:13,546 --> 00:38:15,946
Speaker 6: work today. I've never gotten to meet him. But like

848
00:38:16,106 --> 00:38:20,666
Speaker 6: his physicality, his you know, his bigness, his his.

849
00:38:20,986 --> 00:38:23,706
Speaker 5: Light on his feet. You know, I really love that.

850
00:38:23,946 --> 00:38:27,346
Speaker 6: And also the relatability of like I just could feel

851
00:38:27,386 --> 00:38:29,386
Speaker 6: everything he was talking about. So that was the one

852
00:38:29,426 --> 00:38:32,066
Speaker 6: special I watched a thousand times, but never I was

853
00:38:32,106 --> 00:38:34,946
Speaker 6: never that guy who was like George Carlin I hugged

854
00:38:34,986 --> 00:38:35,426
Speaker 6: his book.

855
00:38:35,546 --> 00:38:36,386
Speaker 5: You know I didn't do that.

856
00:38:36,586 --> 00:38:41,306
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, So this thing hits Netflix take us

857
00:38:41,906 --> 00:38:45,146
Speaker 1: really brievous. So you said, thirteen years of doing stand

858
00:38:45,226 --> 00:38:48,626
Speaker 1: up comedy, and then like this is not to make

859
00:38:48,666 --> 00:38:50,866
Speaker 1: it overally dramatic, this is the biggest moment so far

860
00:38:50,946 --> 00:38:51,586
Speaker 1: for the career.

861
00:38:51,786 --> 00:38:52,746
Speaker 3: Is this Like what that means?

862
00:38:52,746 --> 00:38:55,906
Speaker 1: I don't know the significance of a Netflix special, knowing

863
00:38:56,186 --> 00:38:57,746
Speaker 1: what it's done for so many others.

864
00:38:57,786 --> 00:38:59,546
Speaker 3: But like, is this this could be your moment.

865
00:39:00,186 --> 00:39:02,226
Speaker 6: It's hard to explain because it came out at three

866
00:39:02,386 --> 00:39:03,506
Speaker 6: thirty three in the morning.

867
00:39:04,706 --> 00:39:06,986

870
00:39:12,666 --> 00:39:16,866
Speaker 6: biggest moment of my life. It is like the platform

871
00:39:17,186 --> 00:39:20,266
Speaker 6: is just so big and I want like, you know,

Speaker 6: to be able to go and do great shows. And

876
00:39:30,546 --> 00:39:33,506
Speaker 6: it's it's really as simple and hokey and cheesy as that.

877
00:39:33,706 --> 00:39:37,106
Speaker 6: Like again, the prize is doing stand up. I get

878
00:39:37,146 --> 00:39:39,426
Speaker 6: to do it. I get to travel the country. I

879
00:39:39,506 --> 00:39:44,826
Speaker 6: love putting together the bits and like it. It really

880
00:39:44,826 --> 00:39:47,066
Speaker 6: does sound cheesy, but this is like if I can

881
00:39:47,226 --> 00:39:49,866
Speaker 6: just and if I can make a living doing that,

882
00:39:49,986 --> 00:39:53,746
Speaker 6: Like who you know, as as the hardballs would say,

Speaker 6: who has it better than us? You know, like it's

884
00:39:56,746 --> 00:39:59,786
Speaker 6: uh so, I I just and when people connect with

885
00:39:59,866 --> 00:40:02,026
Speaker 6: what I'm saying and they come up to me with

886
00:40:02,106 --> 00:40:05,066
Speaker 6: their you know, with their families or their boyfriend or girlfriend,

887
00:40:05,146 --> 00:40:07,506
Speaker 6: whatever it might be, and be like, wow, we just

888
00:40:07,586 --> 00:40:10,186
Speaker 6: died laughing, like it's.

889
00:40:09,946 --> 00:40:11,186
Speaker 5: That's the greatest pleasure.

890
00:40:11,306 --> 00:40:14,066
Speaker 6: You know, Like if someone says to me like I

891
00:40:14,146 --> 00:40:17,666
Speaker 6: literally peed my pants, I'm like, that is like all

892
00:40:17,746 --> 00:40:18,866
Speaker 6: I I can ask for.

893
00:40:18,986 --> 00:40:22,346
Speaker 1: You know, thirty seven in single is the special? You

894
00:40:22,346 --> 00:40:25,146
Speaker 1: obviously are thirty seven in single. Uh, I'm not gonna

895
00:40:25,146 --> 00:40:28,746
Speaker 1: give it away, but you're opening bit on just you're

896
00:40:28,786 --> 00:40:31,506
Speaker 1: on these apps so often that sometimes eventually you start

897
00:40:31,586 --> 00:40:33,946
Speaker 1: just dismissing women because of their names.

898
00:40:33,626 --> 00:40:35,466
Speaker 6: And it's like you don't even look at their pictures,

899
00:40:35,506 --> 00:40:39,946
Speaker 6: just don't want to with that name with women men

900
00:40:40,066 --> 00:40:42,106
Speaker 6: that and that's like the most relatable thing. It doesn't

901
00:40:42,106 --> 00:40:46,306
Speaker 6: matter who you are, you get bogged down. And that's

902
00:40:46,386 --> 00:40:48,786
Speaker 6: like the thing about it that I really like connect

903
00:40:48,826 --> 00:40:52,746
Speaker 6: with people on like you know, and sometimes marry people

904
00:40:52,786 --> 00:40:55,186
Speaker 6: don't understand. It's like I don't think I'm anybody. I

905
00:40:55,226 --> 00:40:59,346
Speaker 6: don't think I deserve anything. You know, you're just going, oh,

Speaker 6: street room is the one you want to go to.

934
00:42:06,466 --> 00:42:09,626
Speaker 6: Second would be Village Underground, Third would be Fat Black Lounge.

935
00:42:09,666 --> 00:42:12,386
Speaker 5: Fourth would be Fat black Bar. If you want insider tip.

936
00:42:12,706 --> 00:42:16,026
Speaker 6: If it shows is sold out, there's a standby line

937
00:42:16,146 --> 00:42:19,466
Speaker 6: a half hour before every show and it's not sold out.

938
00:42:19,466 --> 00:42:22,946
Speaker 6: It's a reservation system, so no one's paid for tickets

939
00:42:22,946 --> 00:42:25,026
Speaker 6: ahead of time, so a lot of people don't show,

940
00:42:25,466 --> 00:42:28,106
Speaker 6: So you're gonna go to a show that night. I'm

941
00:42:28,146 --> 00:42:30,506
Speaker 6: telling you it is the biggest win. If you're like

942
00:42:30,666 --> 00:42:33,386
Speaker 6: planning a date night with your wife or girlfriend, you're

943
00:42:33,386 --> 00:42:36,586
Speaker 6: going to New York City, you want to win, you

944
00:42:36,626 --> 00:42:39,746
Speaker 6: go to the commie seller. Guaranteed win. That's why you

945
00:42:39,786 --> 00:42:43,426
Speaker 6: know why all the reservations are gone. All the concierges

946
00:42:43,786 --> 00:42:46,346
Speaker 6: at the hotels. At the hotels take them up because

947
00:42:46,866 --> 00:42:50,146
Speaker 6: what better than a free ticket that someone could take

948
00:42:50,226 --> 00:42:54,906
Speaker 6: or leave. That the concierge wins and there's no loss potential.

949
00:42:55,066 --> 00:42:55,306
