Speaker 5: So that's twenty one age.

220
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: Because I was saying when we shot what they do,

221
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,079
Speaker 1: we had to go to the projects to shoot a

222
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 1: rooftop scene. And the first thing that I was thinking,

223
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, this is like the Hugs and

224
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:55,079
Speaker 1: Kisses project, Like yeah, it was old Grandmothers or whatever like,

225
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,040
Speaker 1: but it was a late nineties so I was expecting,

226
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: Wait where was it.

227
00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:02,080
Speaker 5: Lower like Lower Manhattan?

228
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:06,680
Speaker 8: And I remember there was a lot of projects.

229
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:09,719
Speaker 5: There was concern from the label the hell there was

230
00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 5: like man concern from the label and you know when

231
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 5: we got there, they were like prepas, like okay, guys,

232
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,440
Speaker 5: make sure security, you know, because we thought we were

233
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 5: going to the projects to shoot the scene.

234
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, when we got there, we were just like, wait

235
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,120
Speaker 1: a minute, it's not project enough.

236
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, there there's a project. We used to go

237
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,240
Speaker 5: to the like specifically for Halloween, and it was just

238
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 5: all old people. You would go there and just yeah

239
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:37,719
Speaker 5: and nobody like visited them sadly, so they was like

240
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 5: happier about Halloween, and we was when we was kids.

241
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 5: We would go over there and we'd rack up. It

242
00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 5: was great. It was awesome. We're not from you're from

243
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,640
Speaker 5: projects in Philly. The Philly do projects. It's like roadhouses

244
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 5: and yeah, roadhouses.

245
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,079
Speaker 1: Treek makes fun because my father we were the only

246
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:59,320
Speaker 1: house that never got broken into because my dad would

247
00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:04,400
Speaker 1: put like security ride iron gates around our entire crib,

248
00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:10,200
Speaker 1: so it looked like I lived in a prison. But yeah,

249
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 1: I mean we were the only house on the block

250
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 1: with like three thousand records and all this recording equipment

251
00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:15,959
Speaker 1: and drums and stuff.

252
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 5: So my dad's like, nope, you know that makes sense.

253
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 5: It was like Fort Knox, you know. So okay, So

254
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 5: being born in Manhattan, Like what led you to entertainment?

255
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 8: Uh, that's crazy. I mean it wasn't entertainment to me.

256
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 5: It was specifically stand up comedy like I would watch

257
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 5: Bring the Pain, I would watch Carlin's HBOS and Damon

258
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,520

Speaker 5: like a illmatic right, and you're like, how right? But

313
00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,119
Speaker 5: I get it.

314
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: But the thing was, because that was my introduction to Delirious.

315
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: Was everyone else doing Delirious, so I knew.

316
00:17:43,880 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 5: And very funny.

317
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 1: I knew all that based on classroom kids doing it

318
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,520
Speaker 1: and rappers sampling it and all that stuff. So but

319
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:56,399
Speaker 1: when I finally watched it, it's funny you say that

320
00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: because I know, you know the same way that who

321
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 1: was indifferent to Midnight Marauders? Uh like Loupe or whatever,

322
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: Like I'm probably that ways I respect delirious and know

323
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 1: where it stands historically.

324
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,119
Speaker 5: Oh, I get it. I was like I was like

325
00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 5: that for prior, Like I didn't really get a lot

326
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,119
Speaker 5: of people are like that. I was like, like live

327
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 5: in the sensens trip. I was like, okay, but to me,

328
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 5: he was funniest in movies, so like, which way is

329
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 5: up is? My ship? Was funny Because critics pan off

330
00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:31,960
Speaker 5: his movie, I think with Richard Pryory was copied so much,

331
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 5: and Eddie Murphy is true too, They've been copied so

332
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,600
Speaker 5: much that it's kind of hard to understand the context

333
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 5: of when he was doing it. He was the only

334
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,359
Speaker 5: guy doing Yeah, how revolutionary was so it's kind of

335
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 5: hard to understand that if you're not there watching it.

336
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 5: Because I used to say the same thing. I was like,

337
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,280
Speaker 5: I don't really understand why Richard Pryor it's so much better,

338
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 5: greater than everybody. Herald, that's so much greater. And then

339
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:59,639
Speaker 5: I started kind of learning more about comedy and learn

340
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 5: more about who else was happening at the time. You're like, oh, okay,

341
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 5: next to those guys, he must have looked like a Martian,

342
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, Like he was like the

343
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:10,680
Speaker 5: idea of you know, him doing the wining on the

344
00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 5: junkie and like street characters like you know, Dick Dick

345
00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 5: Gregory really wasn't doing that in his comedy Noo was

346
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 5: more yeah exactly. So, Yeah, Red Fox was set up

347
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 5: punch a lot of a lot of like actual jokes,

348
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 5: you know, joke yeah, joke jokes. Richard Pryor. That was like,

349
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 5: I mean, this is he's in the Chitlin circuit in

350
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:36,320
Speaker 5: early nineteen seventy black you know what I mean, clubs

351
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,720
Speaker 5: talking about the first time he ever blew a dude,

352
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 5: and it's working, like you it'd be hard to do

353
00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 5: that in a black man now, and he's got people laughing,

354
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,200
Speaker 5: and it's like the kind of thing that he was

355
00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 5: doing was insane when you think about the context.

356
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 1: You know that Cosby actually released two Blue Humor records

357
00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,359
Speaker 1: that people don't know about.

358
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,440
Speaker 5: What Yeah, there's one joint and came out on laugh

359
00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 5: or some ship like one the one people who don't

360
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:12,080
Speaker 5: oh Blue Humor is like dirty like Curson, like yeah,

361
00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 5: fussing cussin. Yeah.

362
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 1: In seventy four, there was like a I mean, he

363
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 1: didn't get that deep into it, but the other one

364
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:24,359
Speaker 1: in eighty eighty one he spoke at uh. It was

365
00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 1: more like him speaking at some prison in Pennsylvania. And

366
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: it wasn't comedy per se. But they made the record

367
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:37,880
Speaker 1: cover it looked like it was like Bill.

368
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:42,119
Speaker 5: Cosby and hard always hard hitted boys. And I was like, oh,

369
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,920
Speaker 5: let me get this record, and then there was just

370
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 5: like him him being real, like you know that sort

371
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 5: of thing like that whoop. I saw his last special

372
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 5: that never came out Netflix won or yeah, I think

373
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 5: it was Netflix. It was. I think it was called

374
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,320
Speaker 5: Cosby seventy seven.

375
00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 6: When he's coming at us, like coming at us.

376
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 8: No, it's actually he's actually not.

377
00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,679
Speaker 5: It's well what I saw he did like two hours

378
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 5: of I guess what was going to be a ninety

379
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 5: minute special or whatever, and it was Robert Townsend was

380
00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,040
Speaker 5: directing it, and they did it at I was doing

381
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,879
Speaker 5: shows in San Francisco, and it was like there was

382
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,840
Speaker 5: an early tape and like a six o'clock tape, and

383
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 5: I watched it and went and did my show, and

384
00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:22,800
Speaker 5: it was it was like good. It was. It was

385
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,960
Speaker 5: kind of loose, It wasn't you could tell like he

386
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,480
Speaker 5: was still trying stuff for whatever.

387
00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,960
Speaker 8: Oddly but it's like a month after that everything happened.

388
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,680
Speaker 5: He was talking a lot. It was weird because he

389
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:39,080
Speaker 5: was talking a lot about like like growing up, like

390
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 5: his first experiences dating. Yeah, it was kind of it

391
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 5: was like blueish. It wasn't blue, but it was like

392
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 5: blue for Cosby. It was like it was like an

393
00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 5: old man. I was like, you know what, I'm gonna

394
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:51,000
Speaker 5: let it loose a little bit.

395
00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:52,359
Speaker 6: But it was.

396
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 8: It was good though. It was like kind of like excited,

397
00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 8: you know, I was kind of excited to see.

398
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 5: What I was. I was interested. I mean, you know,

399
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 5: obviously everything that happened to understood why, but I was

400
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 5: always curious to see that special when it came out,

401
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 5: because how many seventy seven year old comedians.

402
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 8: Yeah you don't get that perspective.

403
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 5: But yeah, yeah, no, yeah, it ain't the same. Well

404
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 5: you can still see him, uh he he's still just

405
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 5: kind of popping up. Also, I heard he was doing

406
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 5: course this jazz club in Philly a lot Cosby. Yeah, Yeah,

407
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 5: it's not I guess the people that own the old bar. Yeah,

408
00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 5: it's they have one join that's kind of uh not

409
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 5: Balla Kinwood. But he's in the bird.

410
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:43,479
Speaker 8: They showed a video of him like recently, like at

411
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 8: that spot or whatever.

412
00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 6: After everything came down a couple of months ago.

413
00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was just he was just out there and

414
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 5: he just yeah, yeah, he.

415
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:52,400
Speaker 8: Was doing Hicky Bird.

416
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,679
Speaker 5: I think crazy.

417
00:22:57,119 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 8: That's the only safe cutty guy, it really is.

418
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 1: So what were your first steps into taking your comedy series,

419
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 1: Like one too many trips at the principal's office or.

420
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 5: Like, no, none of that. I was I got it late.

421
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 5: I was like I always wanted to try it. I

422
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,639
Speaker 5: always always wanted to try it. Was like they had

423
00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,119
Speaker 5: like comedy classes. The thing about stand up is if

424
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 5: you don't know any comedians, it might as well be

425
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,760
Speaker 5: on the moon because you don't have no idea how

426
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,040
Speaker 5: to do it. So I would just google like how

427
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 5: to do it and find like different open mics or whatever,

428
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 5: and it's just literally five dollars, half a pint of

429
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 5: E and J and you just go up there. Like

430
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 5: that was literally how it happened. I went to an

431
00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 5: open mic right right down the block from the cellar

432
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:47,160
Speaker 5: on McDougal Street, and I scouted it out one day

433
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:49,920
Speaker 5: just to watch, and there was like one dude that

434
00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 5: was really good, and everybody else was terrible, And I

435
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,880
Speaker 5: was like, if they're terrible and still doing it, then

436
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 5: I could be that terrible, you know what I mean,

437
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,119
Speaker 5: Like I could just be that bad and try it.

438
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 8: Took the pressure off.

439
00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 5: You don't have to be good at it, you know,

440
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 5: because every time somebody wants to start coming always like

441
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:08,800
Speaker 5: I don't got no jokes though, Like, yeah, nobody has

442
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 5: jokes when you start.

443
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,120
Speaker 8: That's the whole point. There's no joke.

444
00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 5: You're gonna start with that you're gonna end with, you

445
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,879
Speaker 5: know what I mean, it's all gonna you're gonna outgrow

446
00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 5: all of that ship. So it doesn't really matter. Just

447
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,080
Speaker 5: being on stage is what's important. So going there and

448
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 5: just doing it. I couldn't tell you what I said,

449
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 5: but just being on stage and seeing that perspective of

450
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 5: hearing your voice in the micro I never heard my

451
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 5: voice in a microphone before. Like even that was freaky.

452
00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:31,000
Speaker 6: And you did it with no nerves.

453
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 5: Of course, you remember something that's just we call it,

454
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 5: he's got jerk, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. So you went there

455
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 5: without a formula, nothing. I went up there with like

456
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 5: four things that I thought were funny that that would

457
00:24:54,800 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 5: make my friends in the car crack up. That wouldn't

458
00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:59,320
Speaker 5: make anybody else it's outside that car crack up like

459
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,399
Speaker 5: literally nothing. I just wanted to be any Like you

460
00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 5: talk about material you outgrown. Do you remember, I think

461
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 5: like one of the first jokes I had, oh man,

462
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,480
Speaker 5: I think maybe one of the first jokes I had,

463
00:25:13,080 --> 00:25:15,400
Speaker 5: I might have even said it that night was something

464
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 5: about how because it was I remember, was like October,

465
00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 5: it was like the fall, and I was saying, how

466
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:24,719
Speaker 5: like Jehovah's witnesses don't they don't celebrate Halloween even though

467
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 5: they should because that's the one.

468
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 8: Time people open the door. But it was like like that,

469
00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:33,920
Speaker 8: you know, like kind of like a haha, you know,

470
00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 8: like one of those.

471
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 5: But that's all you need. Just as long as you're

472
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 5: comfortable on stage, everything comes, you know what I mean.

473
00:25:39,440 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 5: Like even now you might go on stage with nothing

474
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:42,959
Speaker 5: and find something.

475
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,720
Speaker 1: You know, So with that first laugh, was it like

476
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 1: uh a crack high like a yeah, like your first

477
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: real good laugh.

478
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 8: The first real good laugh.

479
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 5: Well, you start out only doing open mics, and open

480
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,720
Speaker 5: mics in the city is it's not regular people there,

481
00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 5: it's all other people waiting to go on. So a

482
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 5: lot of the laughs are like, ah, you know, they're

483
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 5: right back in their book or whatever. Nobody's really there

484
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 5: to support people, you know. So the first actual show

485
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 5: I did was what they called a bringer show. That

486
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 5: means you bring five people and then you can perform.

487
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 5: So you had to pass out flyers in the corner. No,

488
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,879
Speaker 5: you could just get anybody. You can get five friends,

489
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,160
Speaker 5: you can get however you want. That's a barker show. Barker. Yeah, yeah,

490
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:32,879
Speaker 5: that's a wait's barking, now it's barking. You watched you crashing?

491
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,920
Speaker 5: I got, not that I got suckered, but I watched

492
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 5: crashing and then leaving uh, I forgot who did a

493
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 5: set at uh Carolines.

494
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: I was leaving Carolines and then I saw the guy

495
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,879
Speaker 1: on the corner and I thought of crashing right, And

496
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,040
Speaker 1: you know, I was like, all right, let me make

497
00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: it rain, And I said, dude, and I brought five

498
00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 1: hundred dollars worth of tickets.

499
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 5: Whoa right? Just you know, I just made his night right,

500
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 5: And he couldn't believe it. And then I was like

501
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:05,680
Speaker 5: he and he tried to talk himself out of it,

502
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 5: like no, no, no, tickets, just give me, Like tickets

503
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:11,239
Speaker 5: are only twenty dollars. That's all.

504
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 1: I said, dude, give me five hundred dollars worth of tickets.

505
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: And he couldn't understand it. And I was like, I

506
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:21,760
Speaker 1: watched Crashing, and I understand that this is how that's.

507
00:27:21,640 --> 00:27:23,720
Speaker 8: Actually a terrible, terrible thing you did.

508
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,200
Speaker 5: You know what, because now somebody's gonna be like, yeah,

509
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,880
Speaker 5: we sold out, and nobody's gonna be a sh.

510
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:34,560
Speaker 8: That's an awful idea.

511
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 5: No, So what what I was saying is how you

512
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 5: never had to go that route. No, I never. I

513
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,119
Speaker 5: never did barking. I never did barking. I mean you

514
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 5: barked like your own show. Like if you like everybody

515
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 5: has kind of like a bar show or whatever, that's

516
00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:50,720
Speaker 5: kind of your penance of coming up in comedy, like

517
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,280
Speaker 5: you do my show, do your show kind of thing,

518
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 5: So everybody kind of has like a bar show. And

519
00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 5: then if your if your show's light, you might go

520
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:58,440
Speaker 5: outside and be like, hey we got a comedy show.

521
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,440
Speaker 5: Hey guys come back, coming back with guys, conversa on

522
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 5: the back or whatever. But it was never like four tickets.

523
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 5: It was always usually like a free show. It was

524
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,440
Speaker 5: just like a thing like I just didn't want.

525
00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 6: To do you know so what you said you watched

526
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,960
Speaker 6: Frashion too though, right, did you watch the show?

527
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 8: I've seen somebody. I don't really. I watch Food Network

528
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 8: and Sports Center, Like that's literally.

529
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 5: I know what it is.

530
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:19,320
Speaker 6: But I just.

531
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 5: I think that once now that you're part of the conversation,

532
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,040
Speaker 5: I know what I know how it's made, and I'm

533
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:30,040
Speaker 5: just like, I can't watch it the way like a

534
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,000
Speaker 5: regular person can watch. This is why I cannot entertained.

535
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:34,719
Speaker 1: This is why I feel like I have imposter syndrome,

536
00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,440
Speaker 1: because I feel like people that are really making history

537
00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 1: don't watch history.

538
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 5: They just make it. Yeah, they make it. And meanwhile,

539
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:50,400
Speaker 5: I'm like, episode twelve, let's keep that right exactly, well, like,

540
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 5: can you watch? Can you watch other late night shows? Dude?

541
00:28:54,400 --> 00:29:00,800
Speaker 1: I obsessively like to prepare for that job. Yes, I watch, really,

542
00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,080
Speaker 1: I watch in the mornings.

543
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 5: I watch. I watched Conan.

544
00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 1: I watch everything to see what they're doing, what their

545
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:11,720
Speaker 1: bumpers are like with their walk on the songs. So

546
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: if no other reason you know what not to do,

547
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: it's like yeah, and then like the guests are on

548
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,280
Speaker 1: the show, like I'm watching their entire series to see

549
00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,600
Speaker 1: if I can get something on the character that I

550
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:26,520
Speaker 1: want saying, like my crack high was who was on

551
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,480
Speaker 1: Chappelle the asker gay dude, uh.

552
00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:33,600
Speaker 8: Mario Mario Canton steam Pipe Valley.

553
00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:35,240
Speaker 5: There you go.

554
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 1: So I did a steam pipe and he almost stopped

555
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 1: the show in tears, like, how do you know about

556
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,360
Speaker 1: like we picked this obscure song from.

557
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 8: I would have picked that up easy.

558
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,560
Speaker 5: That's a good one. Steam Pipe Valley used to come

559
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,200
Speaker 5: on every like what was like Saturday. It was like

560
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 5: they would play Looney Tunes. It was like this one

561
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 5: man sketch show and it was all for kids, and

562
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,440
Speaker 5: they played Looney Tune in between them. So like, if

563
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,520
Speaker 5: you wanted to watch Bugs Bunny, you watch steam Pipe Ali.

564
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:04,680
Speaker 5: It's going on like Channel nine.

565
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, it is Mario Canton.

566
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,560
Speaker 1: Once that like and all this is the Jimmy sagrin

567
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: because it's basically like, hey, guys, just play the three

568
00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: second song and let my guests.

569
00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:20,920
Speaker 5: But then once like the root managed to distract the

570
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 5: guests like how did they know that? Oh my god,

571
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 5: and he wanted to talk about it ruined the interview

572
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:31,680
Speaker 5: and then well no, no, no, I'm just saying At

573
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 5: that point, then I was like, oh ship. Then I'm

574
00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 5: watching every show on time and now I have an

575
00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:39,440
Speaker 5: addiction like I have that is the ill That is

576
00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 5: the illest thing I gotta say, like that, that is

577
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,920
Speaker 5: like a really cool thing, like what are the roots

578
00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,520
Speaker 5: going to bring everybody out to? It's kind of a cool.

579
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: It's cool, but then it's like some people come on

580
00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 1: the show like with their Matt like Cosby used to

581
00:30:52,080 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 1: do that, like I only got like a good my

582
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,719
Speaker 1: own like jamming on the one reference because then Cosby

583
00:30:59,840 --> 00:31:01,120
Speaker 1: was like, like, Okay, well this is why I want

584
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 1: to walk out too, and I'm like, no.

585
00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 5: Let me surprise you. Uh. Steve Martin also, but Steve

586
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 5: Martin's are funny.

587
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:11,920
Speaker 6: Because oh he's requests. He makes special requests.

588
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,840
Speaker 5: Steve loved the idea of what we did to Michelle Blackman,

589
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 5: Oh my god, right, what we did to her that.

590
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 5: Then he was like, then he.

591
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: Would orchestra, but then it like backfire for us because

592
00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 1: then we would have to come in early to rehearse

593
00:31:28,880 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: his walk on. Like one time he introduced lady No,

594
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:33,880
Speaker 1: I'm Steve Martin, and Steve Martin came out. He was

595
00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,160
Speaker 1: on the Letterman set like no, and then he was

596
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 1: on the view set no, and then he was on

597
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: Conean set like it was this whole elaborate four minute

598
00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 1: walk on thing, and then Will Smith and you know,

599
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: so it's just like sometimes it.

600
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 6: Backfires, wait to go back to the source of his

601
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:56,880
Speaker 6: rabbit hole.

602
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,160
Speaker 7: Are you saying that you can't watch any entertainment or

603
00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:00,720
Speaker 7: is comedy even harder to watch?

604
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,520
Speaker 5: I'm saying comedy. Comedy is hard to watch, and like

605
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 5: comedy in particular, it is hard to watch. But I

606
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,280
Speaker 5: don't really there's no like shows that I really I watched,

607
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 5: like Detroiters that like, is that good?

608
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: I love it because the ratings are like out of

609
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 1: this world and I want to commit, But again I

610
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 1: love It's that which list I think.

611
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 5: I think it's Jason getting from a beep. Sam Richardson

612
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 5: and Robins, yeah, well and Steve Tim Robinson was like

613
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:39,000
Speaker 5: my officemate at SNL. Tim and Zach who are the

614
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 5: who are the co creators of the show, and so

615
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,880
Speaker 5: like I remember them working on it. I wrote an

616
00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 5: episode last season and and it's just like their humor

617
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,480
Speaker 5: is just the crazy. We used to write the craziest,

618
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 5: craziesth it together on SNL that would never get on

619
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 5: and then we would just have so we would just

620
00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:56,560
Speaker 5: bug out all the time.

621
00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 7: So when don't we talk about matriculating from going on

622
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 7: stage with some I and J and just winging it

623
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:04,120
Speaker 7: to becoming a writer, because that's I got.

624
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 5: The craziest how I got on SNL story I think

625
00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 5: that I've heard so far. Literally wait, we didn't even

626
00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 5: get to the Daily Show that.

627
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 8: I was a writer on SNL. Before I was at

628
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:15,400
Speaker 8: the Daily Show.

629
00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 5: Order, oh shit, all right, go ahead continue. I was

630
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 5: doing stand up maybe you know if he is in

631
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 5: and I saw Colin Joe's at the Ditton Factory Hannibal's

632
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,120
Speaker 5: show in Brooklyn, and we both did a set or whatever,

633
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:32,720
Speaker 5: and he was like, man, you know you're funny whatever,

634
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:34,760
Speaker 5: and we were like we would see each other around,

635
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 5: but like he was he like got to like really

636
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:37,320
Speaker 5: watch me.

637
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:42,160
Speaker 8: Next day he hit me up like, hey, you.

638
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:44,840
Speaker 5: Want I shouldn't say this is going to like discourage

639
00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 5: people from ever going through the process, but he messaged

640
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,960
Speaker 5: me where he was head writer at the time at SNL,

641
00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 5: and he was like, Yo, if you ever want to

642
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,480
Speaker 5: you know, if you have like a packet or something,

643
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,960
Speaker 5: I would love to submit your packet to SNL, Like

644
00:33:58,080 --> 00:33:59,960
Speaker 5: you know, if you write sketches. And I'd never written

645
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 5: sketch before, so I was like all right, yeah, sure,

646
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,880
Speaker 5: I'll do it. And I was like, I ain't fucking writing.

647
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 5: I'm gonna have me write a packet for some shit

648
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 5: that's gonna be bad, you know what I mean. I

649
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:12,400
Speaker 5: don't know how to do that. And he would periodically

650
00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 5: hit me up, like every three or four weeks like yo,

651
00:34:14,800 --> 00:34:16,200
Speaker 5: you got to you got the package, Like, oh, I'm

652
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 5: still working on it, but yeah, I'm gonna send it

653
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 5: to you. And then it was like the week of

654
00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 5: the show where he's like, we just want to come

655
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 5: in as a guest writer. And I was like, all right,

656
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 5: I came in as a guest writer. And it was

657
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 5: two week contract. Literally they throw you in the fire,

658
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,719
Speaker 5: so like you get there Monday, so that's another production week.

659
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 5: There's no orientation. You just show up to the show

660
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 5: and you're like, all right, you work here, get to work.

661
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:48,160
Speaker 5: You're responsible to sketches or whatever. And everybody's there was

662
00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 5: This was like Fred and Bill and Jason was still there.

663
00:34:52,080 --> 00:34:54,840
Speaker 5: Seth was still head writer with with Colin, so it

664
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 5: was like intimidating as fuck. I think Andy and Christen

665
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:00,840
Speaker 5: had just left like a few months.

666
00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:03,319
Speaker 6: Before, and no limitations.

667
00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,320
Speaker 5: They just right there. Yeah. They was like, so the

668
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 5: first thing you gotta do is you got to go

669
00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 5: into Lawn's office and do the pitch meeting, which I'm

670
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,759
Speaker 5: sure you know about. You literally the entire cast and

671
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:17,399
Speaker 5: writing staff in Lawn's office with the host and Kevin

672
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 5: Harts in Lawn's office seventeen with the host. Oh my god,

673
00:35:22,560 --> 00:35:25,919
Speaker 5: it is Kevin is Kevin Hart porn and everything. Don't

674
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 5: touch the popcorn at that point. Don't touch the po

675
00:35:29,200 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 5: It's behind him. So in order to touch the popcorn,

676
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 5: you gotta walk to like up to his chair. And

677
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 5: that's a power move, right. He finally thumbs thumbs us

678
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,160
Speaker 5: up once I brought him too big ass.

679
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, back.

680
00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 7: Office, right, Like, y'all know, y'all know, we don't know

681
00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 7: what you're talking about. Right, I'm just saying, everybody who listening,

682
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:49,240
Speaker 7: tell y'all.

683
00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,960
Speaker 5: Inside loves pop. If you walk in, you just you

684
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,960
Speaker 5: hear all over the floor. So we're all in there

685
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 5: when everybody's giving sketch ideas. Everybody's telling me this is

686
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 5: like comedy pros, And I'm like, what the fuck am

687
00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,240
Speaker 5: I doing? So my I had to pitch a sketch

688
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 5: and I got a laugh from it, and I think

689
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:09,080
Speaker 5: after that they was like, my sketch was I probably

690
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 5: told you, but uh it was Kevin Hart playing the

691
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:17,400
Speaker 5: richest black man in New York, Dwayne Reid, and I

692
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 5: always tell that joke. But and everybody laughed and they

693
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 5: were like okay. Lauren was like okay. And then my

694
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:27,080
Speaker 5: first they asked me to write that sketch. It bombed

695
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:28,600
Speaker 5: terribly at the table, but I didn't know what I

696
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,160
Speaker 5: was doing. So then the next week was justin Timberlake,

697
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,480
Speaker 5: and then I got a sketch on and then it

698
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 5: was like fun and which one was.

699
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 8: A sketch? You could never do that? That was close

700
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:44,600
Speaker 8: She's Got a Dick, and it was She's Got a Dick.

701
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:47,080
Speaker 5: It was a romantic comedy trailer about this lady that

702
00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:51,840
Speaker 5: had everything, but she also had a dick who played woman.

703
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:56,880
Speaker 5: It was it was justin in the scene. Okay, it

704
00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:58,680
Speaker 5: was justin in the scene. So when you say so,

705
00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 5: when you say it skip bombed at the table, what

706
00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,800
Speaker 5: what's the I guess the chain of command? What's the process?

707
00:37:03,840 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 5: You pitch it in the meeting in law's office and

708
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 5: then what well, I didn't know this, but typically people

709
00:37:10,840 --> 00:37:13,600
Speaker 5: who when you do pitch, now I know this. When

710
00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 5: you pitch, typically people don't say what they're going to write.

711
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 5: They're usually just saying like a one liner that's going

712
00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 5: to make everybody lie. It's really a meeting to make

713
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 5: the host feel comfortable, you know, like you're not you're

714
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 5: not really pitching your ideas.

715
00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:26,960
Speaker 8: Sometimes people do.

716
00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 5: Like there's times where you can pitch something people are like, hey,

717
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 5: that's funny, actually can you do that? And then you

718
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,400
Speaker 5: write it and then like that's happened to me a

719
00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 5: couple of times, or you know, like I've recommended or

720
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 5: whatever the sketch that that was like super popular. Farewell

721
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 5: mister Bunting. You remember that one where like Pete stands

722
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:45,799
Speaker 5: up and his head gets chopped off on the ceiling fan.

723
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:50,000
Speaker 5: It's like that was a pitch. That was a pitch

724
00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 5: that Colin I think mikey Day pitched it and Colin

725
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 5: was like, hey, you should like we could write that,

726
00:37:55,680 --> 00:37:57,959
Speaker 5: and they wrote it together and made it happen.

727
00:37:58,040 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 8: But it was almost he was almost like it was

728
00:37:59,400 --> 00:37:59,960
Speaker 8: like a throwaway.

729
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:02,399
Speaker 1: I was literally going to ask you, like the reason

730
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,919
Speaker 1: why you see me there obsessively every week in the show,

731
00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,719
Speaker 1: isn't I mean, yes, I want to laugh and I

732
00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 1: enjoy the experience. But my conversation with Higgins always the

733
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,680
Speaker 1: next day is what was the pitch like?

734
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 5: And then when you got I said, when I went

735
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:22,919
Speaker 5: to him after that that bit, I said, did someone

736
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 5: just say, okay, we're going to do it? Not good

737
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:29,960
Speaker 5: well hunting? What's the thing where I my soy? Yeah? Like,

738
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 5: did someone just.

739
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,239
Speaker 1: Say okay, it's a dead post society sketch? But then

740
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 1: when Pete stands on the table, he's going to get beheaded?

741
00:38:36,560 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 8: Like how do you literally pretty much that?

742
00:38:40,120 --> 00:38:41,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, But the thing is like a lot of the

743
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:46,160
Speaker 1: physical comedy or the or the one bit where somebody

744
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:51,239
Speaker 1: was a poster or something that involves physical comedy, It's like,

745
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 1: how do you articulate that that's going to be the

746
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 1: funny part if?

747
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 5: And how does that work in the room that actually

748
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 5: gets you too. That's where the show gets tricky because

749
00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:05,920
Speaker 5: there's a lot of things that make a table full

750
00:39:05,960 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 5: of comedy writers laugh that doesn't make America laugh. And

751
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 5: there's a lot of stuff that doesn't make us laugh

752
00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,359
Speaker 5: that becomes a massive hit or whatever. So I think

753
00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,800
Speaker 5: that's that's kind of like when Lauren and Higgins and

754
00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,160
Speaker 5: and Ken word like, that's kind of when they're saying,

755
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,239
Speaker 5: you know what, I think this will look good on tape,

756
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 5: even though it doesn't play hot at the table, I

757
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:27,200
Speaker 5: think this will work. I think this will be really

758
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 5: good for the show. So there's a lot of I

759
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:32,640
Speaker 5: remember that. Yeah, well, I think we all knew that

760
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,800
Speaker 5: it would be funny. But it's when you're reading, because

761
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 5: it's everybody's reading their part, and then Lauren is reading

762
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:42,439
Speaker 5: the stage direction. We're not really acting. Now he reads

763
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 5: every stage director.

764
00:39:43,600 --> 00:39:44,799
Speaker 6: So can I ask a crazy question?

765
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,040
Speaker 7: You're throwing out names and I just googled one because

766
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:48,880
Speaker 7: I had to figure out who Higgins was. Okay, it's

767
00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,640
Speaker 7: Steve Higgins. Okay, this is the guy who is actually

768
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,000
Speaker 7: on the Tonight Show. But he also is like a writer.

769
00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:01,200
Speaker 5: Higgins is like he runs yeah, different fat and he's

770
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 5: just like that's his DJ gig, right, but you know

771
00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 5: his roots gig is SNL Yes, yes, legendary writer for

772
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 5: the show. And now he's a producer and he works

773
00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 5: pretty hands on on the show. Yeah.

774
00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: See, well that's the thing because usually, like you know,

775
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:20,320
Speaker 1: commercial breaks when like Lauren is just in the middle

776
00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 1: of the floor, like in the camera.

00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,560
Speaker 5: we'll be you know, like we won't have a cold open.

787
00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,640
Speaker 5: We've been writing our cold opens much much later in

788
00:40:57,719 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 5: the week because of the news, because of the news

789
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:01,680
Speaker 5: cycle has just been insane. We've been we've had to

790
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,960
Speaker 5: like rewrite cold over and rewrite updates on Thursday and

791
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 5: Friday sometimes like just because of the news, Like the

792

Speaker 5: country is completely different between Wednesday and Friday, like completely different.

793
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:15,000
Speaker 5: So you know, he'll be like, I feel like maybe

794
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,680
Speaker 5: we should do something like this or whatever, and then

795
00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 5: he kind of like orders it up. A lot of times,

796
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,280

797
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,680

798
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:28,480
Speaker 5: of a light day. You could start writing, but you

799
00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:32,320
Speaker 5: really don't have to. But it's really writers meeting and

800

Speaker 5: then host meeting, and then Tuesday we come in for writing.

801
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,400

Speaker 5: in usually around three four pm, and then I'll maybe

803
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:50,160
Speaker 5: leave at about seven eight am and then go home,

804
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,359
Speaker 5: take a nap, take a shower, then go to table read,

805
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 5: which is usually around three pm.

806
00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:58,239
Speaker 8: On Wednesday. We read up until about eight o'clock and.

807
00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:02,240
Speaker 5: Table readers, you guys, table read, we read about forty

808
00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 5: anywhere between thirty five and forty of the sketches you

809
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 5: wrote on Tuesday that we all wrote on Tuesday, and

810
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 5: then we picked maybe eleven to produce. We rewrite it Thursday.

811
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,240
Speaker 5: We do our pre tapes Friday and our blocking Friday,

812
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:22,320
Speaker 5: and then Saturday run through dress rehearsal air. Do you

813
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,680
Speaker 5: Between dress rehearsal and air, we usually cut two to

814
00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,760
Speaker 5: three sketches cut meaning meaning it together.

815
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's like a two hour show.

816
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:36,279
Speaker 5: We go in with about two hours and then we

817
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,879
Speaker 5: leave what about ninety minutes for live, and sometimes we're

818
00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 5: cutting shit on air.

819
00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:43,640
Speaker 8: Sometimes we're rewriting shit on there.

820
00:42:43,680 --> 00:42:45,719
Speaker 5: There's times where like the show is on and you're

821
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,480
Speaker 5: in your dressing room and you think your day's open,

822
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:49,799
Speaker 5: your sketch is next, and they're like, hey, they need

823
00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 5: you in a control room and you're literally in the

824
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 5: script department cutting out sketches, cutting out lines of a sketch.

825
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:57,279
Speaker 5: So if you ever like watching the show and at

826
00:42:57,320 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 5: the end you're like, well that ended weird because we

827
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 5: had to shave forty five seconds out of a three

828
00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 5: minute sketch, which happens a lot. Yeah, and if if

829
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 5: well that's how I first met you. I learned the processes.

830
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:15,799
Speaker 1: If you're one of the bits that gets cut, if

831
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,600
Speaker 1: you're newbie, you might take a little personal you might

832
00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,080
Speaker 1: take a little personal Pam pizza.

833
00:43:20,800 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 5: So then you go up to seventeen and then you

834
00:43:24,440 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 5: get ship face drunk if you just been.

835
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:30,680
Speaker 7: Yep, Because does everybody every week at least get in

836
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:34,320
Speaker 7: a get in a segment, like everybody.

837
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,479
Speaker 5: Hannibal said, no, no, not Hannible, what's his name said?

838
00:43:37,600 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 5: He never got his? I think I think Hannibal got

839
00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 5: like one or two. But yeah, some it's it's for

840
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:49,719
Speaker 5: some writers you never see it's been a little bit. Well,

841
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,040
Speaker 5: you got to think when they were writing, they had

842
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,279
Speaker 5: like I mean it was like, yeah, they you had

843
00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,600
Speaker 5: like Kristen wigg and only people on the show that

844
00:43:57,800 --> 00:44:00,920
Speaker 5: that's like half the show right there. I didn't write anything.

845
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 8: She was in real Estate gets a lot smaller, you know,

846
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:05,520
Speaker 8: so like you.

847
00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:07,920
Speaker 5: Know, Larry David said he none of his bits ever

848
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:13,360
Speaker 5: got on. Yeah, Larry David, Sarah Silverman, I've heard that

849
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:13,759
Speaker 5: as well.

850
00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:15,160
Speaker 6: And to work there for years.

851
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,799
Speaker 8: I think Sarah was only there for like a year

852
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 8: or two. I don't think she was there.

853
00:44:19,880 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 6: Well, so is it an official?

854
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,160
Speaker 7: Is there really an official like s n L Frattorney, Like,

855
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:25,920
Speaker 7: was there a moment when you felt like, yes, I'm

856
00:44:25,960 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 7: officially in this special collective and I can go talk

857
00:44:28,560 --> 00:44:29,760
Speaker 7: to Bill Murray at anytime?

858
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 5: And No, it's really you never feel that because it's you.

859
00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:39,520
Speaker 5: You just get comfortable. It's like anything else. It's like

860
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:43,080
Speaker 5: you really it just it ends up being like holy ship,

861
00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 5: that's Bill Murray to Bill Murray's here. It becomes like

862
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,239
Speaker 5: just that, Yeah, we see them all the time. And

863
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,680
Speaker 5: I think that's kind of the crazy thing. Like we're

864
00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:56,480
Speaker 5: probably the only show where people are more nervous than

865
00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 5: we are, yeah, to be on than we are to

866
00:44:59,040 --> 00:44:59,600
Speaker 5: have them on.

867
00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:02,920
Speaker 7: Not even the nervous part, just a camaraderie of knowing that. Okay,

868
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,279
Speaker 7: So if Chevvy chasees me on the street, he's going

869
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:07,279
Speaker 7: to say something because we are in this fraternity, like.

870
00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:09,160
Speaker 5: Or maybe he won't. Maybe he won't.

871
00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,040
Speaker 6: I should have went fast basketball.

872
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:24,759
Speaker 5: I don't know. Okay, when when someone you haven't worked

873
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:26,800
Speaker 5: with from the show knows who you are, it's a

874
00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 5: very strange experience, Like you're like, what I saw John

875
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 5: Love It's I've never seen him outside of the show

876
00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:37,560
Speaker 5: before this, and I saw him in l A one

877
00:45:37,680 --> 00:45:39,000
Speaker 5: time and he was like nice to me and I

878
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:42,520
Speaker 5: was like, John Love It. It was like it blew

879
00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:46,280
Speaker 5: my mind becau. John Loves was like my favorite guy favorite.

880
00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,080
Speaker 5: He was, Oh my god, I love John Love this.

881
00:45:49,120 --> 00:45:49,800
Speaker 5: He was so funny.

882
00:45:54,640 --> 00:46:00,560
Speaker 1: So okay, with the host that come on the show,

883
00:46:03,719 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: do you I feel like there's three types of posts.

884
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:09,240
Speaker 5: So if.

885
00:46:10,600 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 1: Say, someone that's eager and easy to work with, I

886
00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:18,399
Speaker 1: would assume that Hanks is that guy that's like really

887
00:46:18,480 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 1: about making the most of a moment hosting ESNL.

888
00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:24,879
Speaker 5: He's a dream come true. Yes, I'm sure that timber

889
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:27,239
Speaker 5: Lake is also that way, very eager to you know,

890
00:46:27,840 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 5: can do anything, do what I gotta do to make

891
00:46:29,800 --> 00:46:32,040
Speaker 5: sure this is a classic episode. If it's funny, He's

892
00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:33,280
Speaker 5: with it. But then.

893
00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: You know, you guys might get a wild card like

894
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:43,840
Speaker 1: were you there during the Trump yeah, hosting, Yeah, of

895
00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:48,480
Speaker 1: which I'm sure that was a little crazy.

896
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:52,960
Speaker 5: Well, it wasn't. To me. It wasn't that crazy because

897
00:46:53,000 --> 00:46:55,799
Speaker 5: I didn't expect him to win until like a year

898
00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,880
Speaker 5: after that. Like at that time, it still kind of

899
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,879
Speaker 5: felt like it was still a little bit of a joke.

900
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,440
Speaker 5: It wasn't as kind of like you know, it wasn't like.

901
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 1: Not even not even the process of like will he

902
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 1: be president? I'm just talking about like a good host

903
00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:15,759
Speaker 1: for the show, deliverying that sort of thing.

904
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,480
Speaker 5: A good host for me is a little bit different

905
00:47:19,640 --> 00:47:22,680
Speaker 5: like somebody like a comedian. When a stand up is hosting,

906
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:26,719
Speaker 5: it's usually not fun for me, really, yes, because they

907
00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:29,160
Speaker 5: bringing their own team. Because not only they bringing their

908
00:47:29,160 --> 00:47:32,080
Speaker 5: own team, but stand ups and like comedians wroke, like

909
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:35,400
Speaker 5: they know why they're funny, they're not. They trust themselves

910
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,000
Speaker 5: way more than they trust the writings, you know, and

911
00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:39,640
Speaker 5: they know they got one shot at this and they

912
00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:43,320
Speaker 5: don't want a bomb, so they're like, I don't know.

913
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,640
Speaker 5: They're on the fence about everything. They're not shut about

914
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:48,120
Speaker 5: anything until they hear to laugh and they'll say, all right,

915
00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,400
Speaker 5: we can, we can do this. That was gonna I love.

916
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:53,560
Speaker 8: My favorite is like a like a Blake Shelton.

917
00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:58,759
Speaker 5: That's just like, man, just you unexpected. I don't care.

918
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:01,440
Speaker 5: Just just write it. I'll read it. If it works.

919
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:01,920
Speaker 5: It works.

920
00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:03,440
Speaker 8: That's a dream scenario.

921
00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:05,080
Speaker 5: What was Chappelle like?

922
00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:07,239
Speaker 8: What was his Chappelle was?

923
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 5: Well?

924
00:48:07,960 --> 00:48:10,840
Speaker 8: First of was Chappelle is not only is he a genius,

925
00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:12,279
Speaker 8: but he's a perfectionist.

926
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:18,640
Speaker 5: And also this week was like the craziest week because

927
00:48:18,719 --> 00:48:22,399
Speaker 5: Trump had won. So literally Tuesday you felt one way

928
00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 5: and the country was completely different by Wednesday, Like I

929
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 5: never other than nine to eleven, I don't remember a

930
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 5: more drastic change and tone after a day. So to

931
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,880
Speaker 5: write comp we mind, we write the show Tuesday, so

932
00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:39,680
Speaker 5: we have to write a sketch, you know what I mean.

933
00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 5: You gotta imagine writing like the Poop Family sketch and

934
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:45,440
Speaker 5: you're watching the country literally fall apart, and you're like,

935
00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:47,400
Speaker 5: all right, what does he say? Next, you know, it's

936
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:51,000
Speaker 5: nothing that seems important at that time. So by Wednesday,

937
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:56,240
Speaker 5: table read all those sketches in rough shape because everyone

938
00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,360
Speaker 5: was so distracted and nobody really had anything good. But

939
00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 5: Neil Brennan helped a lot, and Chappelle of course got

940
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:08,160
Speaker 5: his hands on stuff, and Brian Tucker did a lot

941
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,680
Speaker 5: of work to bring everything up. We all you know,

942
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:14,279
Speaker 5: pitched in to bring everything up h to get the

943
00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:16,760
Speaker 5: show ready by Saturday. But that was like a really

944
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 5: weird week. So it's hard for me to really say

945
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:21,840
Speaker 5: what Dave was like because it was such a bizarre circumstances.

946
00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,560
Speaker 5: So the whole sometimes will help with sketches, of course.

947
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:28,560
Speaker 5: I mean if they yeah, they know what they're doing,

948
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:30,800
Speaker 5: they'll yeah. I mean they got to say it. We

949
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:32,840
Speaker 5: do the show for them and they and they ultimately

950
00:49:32,880 --> 00:49:34,239
Speaker 5: get to pick. Like when we picked the sketches that

951
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 5: go on the show, it's the head writers and the

952
00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:40,840
Speaker 5: producers and uh Lauren and the host and we we

953
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 5: talk it through, like we talked through I feel like

954
00:49:43,080 --> 00:49:44,840
Speaker 5: you need something here or whatever. We just kind of

955
00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 5: tell them the formula of the show and what we

956
00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 5: think will make them look good. Cast coverage, all of

957
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 5: that stuff, and then we kind of decided from there,

958
00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:54,879
Speaker 5: and there's some stuff that they'll fight for and there's

959
00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:56,279
Speaker 5: some stuff that they're like, hey, I trust you.

960
00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 7: Has that ever been a comedian who's bought a ridiculous

961
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:00,799
Speaker 7: amount of life writers with him?

962
00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:01,719
Speaker 3: Uh?

963
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:11,880
Speaker 5: What's ridiculous? Number more than two is kind of crazy

964
00:50:12,040 --> 00:50:15,279
Speaker 5: based on what I've watched. All Right, all you have

965
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:16,920
Speaker 5: to do is confirm yes or no. You don't have

966
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 5: to say anything.

967
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:24,920
Speaker 1: Did Rock bring a lot of writers on his episode? Thing? Though,

968
00:50:25,200 --> 00:50:30,600
Speaker 1: because I can tell the difference between when a comedian

969
00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:35,320
Speaker 1: host brings his own people and then when a comedy

970
00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,760
Speaker 1: well not a comedian, but when someone knows to trust

971
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:43,759
Speaker 1: the process. Now, I don't have any expectations for the

972
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,279
Speaker 1: Larry David episode, but that to me was one of

973
00:50:47,360 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 1: the funniest shows ever. Yeah, And I was like, okay,

974
00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:57,720
Speaker 1: former uh, former SNL alumni, he knows that he knows

975
00:50:57,920 --> 00:51:02,879
Speaker 1: the situation writing on that I know. But but thus

976
00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:06,480
Speaker 1: that's why his episode turned out to be hilarious. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

977
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 1: whereas you know, I mean, there's no secret, Like even

978
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,960
Speaker 1: Rock and I talked about it, like his episode, the

979
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:20,640
Speaker 1: one with Prince was probably the the not so well

980
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,280
Speaker 1: executed episode.

981
00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:25,719
Speaker 5: Well. I think that's also a big difference, is is that,

982
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:31,120
Speaker 5: like Larry David really wanted to do it. I don't.

983
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,440
Speaker 5: I think Chris was kind of Chris is all you

984
00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 5: know how Chris, He's like, I don't know, like he's.

985
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:39,560
Speaker 8: Never like gung ho excited to do that.

986
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I'm saying, Like he's so just added

987
00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:44,560
Speaker 5: to Like Larry David was kind of like dude, he

988
00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 5: was like laughing out loud at the table, like it

989
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 5: was a little bit of a different kind of energy

990
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,719
Speaker 5: where it. Yeah, it was a little bit.

991
00:51:51,880 --> 00:51:54,440
Speaker 7: Chris is a little bit more like Yeah, So that

992
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:58,319
Speaker 7: takes me ask that sketch with Chris and Dave, how

993
00:51:58,400 --> 00:52:01,400
Speaker 7: many people does it take to write Christen days? Now?

994
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,600
Speaker 5: That sketch is almost and that sketch is a like

995
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:09,720
Speaker 5: perfect example of the week. That sketch was completely different

996
00:52:10,239 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 5: Wednesday than it ended up being because because Hillary because yeah,

997
00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 5: so like they had to completely retool that sketch. It

998
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:21,400
Speaker 5: make different. I think the initial premise it was it

999
00:52:21,520 --> 00:52:23,960
Speaker 5: was a Tucker Tucker and Neil wrote it. I think

1000
00:52:24,040 --> 00:52:27,800
Speaker 5: the initial premise, I don't even you have to me,

1001
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,279
Speaker 5: I don't even remember the initiate, but it was so

1002
00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:33,880
Speaker 5: far from what it ended up being. That why I

1003
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:34,719
Speaker 5: actually liked that bit.

1004
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,440
Speaker 6: I like and it was hell of black. But you

1005
00:52:37,440 --> 00:52:39,160
Speaker 6: said wrote that.

1006
00:52:41,360 --> 00:52:45,440
Speaker 5: Neil Brennan and Brian Tucker they're very white but.

1007
00:52:50,320 --> 00:52:51,480
Speaker 6: They get pass some days.

1008
00:52:51,520 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 5: But that was like Tucker, Tucker and I write Black

1009
00:52:54,680 --> 00:52:59,600
Speaker 5: Jeopardy together. So to give you an idea of how No,

1010
00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:02,000
Speaker 5: I can his sense of he's from North Carolina. He's

1011
00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 5: got like what city is from? I don't know where

1012
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:07,680
Speaker 5: he's from. That as I'm saying that, I'm like, yeah, well, yeah,

1013
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:08,960
Speaker 5: I really don't.

1014
00:53:08,840 --> 00:53:11,120
Speaker 6: Know what city, given him the past and everything.

1015
00:53:11,400 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, I don't know what city, but definitely

1016
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 5: North Carolina. Speaking of Speaking of which, I'm gonna gas

00:53:27,560 --> 00:53:29,080
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know. I mean, I don't know what

1021
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:33,319

Speaker 1: off the show.

1035
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,239
Speaker 5: When I first got to the show, I was like,

1036
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,600
Speaker 5: I was the only black writer on the show when

1037
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,160
Speaker 5: I my first my first year. But that's why I

1038
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 5: don't like it's so weird when people say, oh, you're

1039
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:48,279
Speaker 5: a first black head writer, and I'm always like, it

1040
00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:48,680
Speaker 5: wasn't like.

1041
00:54:48,680 --> 00:54:52,839
Speaker 8: It was a rule, you know, like Jackie Robins writer.

1042
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:56,719
Speaker 5: Now, yeah, I like this year right because it was

1043
00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:59,160
Speaker 5: big h.

1044
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:02,000
Speaker 8: That's the crazy thing. I became head writer.

1045
00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,959
Speaker 5: I became a guest writer, and Kevin Hart was the host.

1046
00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,000
Speaker 5: And when I became head writer, Kevin Hart was the host.

1047
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:19,160
Speaker 5: Forgive me, he's doing it and not Ken the host.

1048
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:22,680
Speaker 5: I gotta git a promotion for some reason. No, But

1049
00:55:22,840 --> 00:55:24,359
Speaker 5: I mean like I was the first I was there.

1050
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:27,480
Speaker 5: I was the only writer there only black writer there, so.

1051
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 6: I'm sorry.

1052
00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:34,360
Speaker 5: There was there was ton that after that. Then Leslie

1053
00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 5: was a writer, and then the Kendricks was a There

1054
00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:41,960
Speaker 5: was a few, there was a few black women. Oh,

1055
00:55:42,040 --> 00:55:46,279
Speaker 5: head writer, I don't know, but like, so what is

1056
00:55:46,719 --> 00:55:51,359
Speaker 5: what is it to me to be the head god?

1057
00:55:51,480 --> 00:55:54,319
Speaker 5: Am I about to open this ben doors box? All

1058
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:59,040
Speaker 5: I know from what I know from where I work, Yeah,

1059
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:03,840
Speaker 5: you know a lot being the head writer. Interviews always

1060
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 5: act like they don't know, trying to keep I don't know.

1061
00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:17,560
Speaker 1: I'm just saying that from what I observed, being the

1062
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 1: head writer is just I'm not dancing line it just

1063
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:26,040
Speaker 1: let me say it. It's it's a nightmare because basically

1064
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,359
Speaker 1: requires you to be the bad cop.

1065
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, you gotta be the bad cop.

1066
00:56:31,120 --> 00:56:37,399
Speaker 5: But also well, head writer is not necessarily the bad cop.

1067
00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:41,600
Speaker 5: That's I feel like producer Higgins and I feel like

1068
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:44,759
Speaker 5: the producers are more so the bad cop. Higgins is

1069
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:45,319
Speaker 5: a bad cop.

1070
00:56:45,680 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 8: I mean they're in the position to be back.

1071
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 5: I've never seen Higgins serious day in his life, and

1072
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:53,160
Speaker 5: I've known him from nine years, So I don't know

1073
00:56:53,239 --> 00:56:57,080
Speaker 5: how to comedy serious. You gotta the comedy serious people.

1074
00:56:57,520 --> 00:57:02,879
Speaker 5: Comedians are so sensitive, like so sens it's like because

1075
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 5: when you're telling somebody this isn't funny or you're doing

1076
00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 5: it bad, you know, like you can't. It's hard to recover,

1077
00:57:09,800 --> 00:57:12,759
Speaker 5: especially when you're in that room with all with Kate

1078
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:15,400
Speaker 5: McKinnon and all these mothers that are awesome and comedy

1079
00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,800
Speaker 5: is so absolute. Either the shit funny or it ain't.

1080
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 5: Is the news broken at the table, I don't know

1081
00:57:23,360 --> 00:57:26,200
Speaker 5: about this or is it like later like no, no,

1082
00:57:26,320 --> 00:57:27,360
Speaker 5: what after high school?

1083
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:28,680
Speaker 8: After we read all of the sketch.

1084
00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 5: Yes, it's pretty much like basketball the basketball team where

1085
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,560
Speaker 5: they write what made it on the on the door okay,

1086
00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,640
Speaker 5: and then you all of the sketches are on in

1087
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:40,080
Speaker 5: then they circles the ones that's that's going because then

1088
00:57:40,120 --> 00:57:42,440
Speaker 5: you have to go produce your sketch. Like literally, when

1089
00:57:42,480 --> 00:57:45,600
Speaker 5: you find out your sketches picked on on Wednesday night,

1090
00:57:46,000 --> 00:57:47,960
Speaker 5: you have to go to production and you go to

1091
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,880
Speaker 5: wardrobe department, you go to the hair department, you go

1092
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 5: to the the set department, you go to props. You

1093
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:55,680
Speaker 5: go to everybody and tell them what you need for.

1094
00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 7: Your sketch and they give you liked they give you

1095
00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:58,200
Speaker 7: a budget like that's too expensive?

1096
00:57:58,240 --> 00:57:59,360
Speaker 6: You want an explosion, we can't do that.

1097
00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:02,480
Speaker 5: Like the videos for pre tape, they don't give you

1098
00:58:02,520 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 5: a number, they don't give you a number budget, but

1099
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:06,400
Speaker 5: they will say, all right, that's a little we probably

1100
00:58:06,480 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 5: can't do that because you know, we can't get a

1101
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:10,880
Speaker 5: real Lamborghini you know what I mean, whatever, But but

1102
00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:13,280
Speaker 5: a lot of our stuff they can do. Like if

1103
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 5: it's good though, that's when Lauren comes in. That's when

1104
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,320
Speaker 5: he's like, no, you know what, fuck that, we're doing it.

1105
00:58:18,520 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 5: And then that's you know, he's always on the side

1106
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 5: of the show, which is the makes it a lot

1107
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 5: easier side question or you said, then Lauren has to

1108
00:58:27,480 --> 00:58:30,240
Speaker 5: come in, so well damn. Now you're the parent.

1109
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:35,800
Speaker 1: So okay, say I'm a writer there and I'm asking

1110
00:58:35,960 --> 00:58:40,640
Speaker 1: you dad hypothetically Dad, no, no, no no, and you're like,

1111
00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 1: and you somehow diplomatically or whatever, tell me, I don't

1112
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:45,760
Speaker 1: think that's going to work.

1113
00:58:46,080 --> 00:58:46,280
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1114
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:50,720
Speaker 1: Has there ever been a at dinner Lauren? I really

1115
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,960
Speaker 1: had this this idea that I think and then like

1116
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,360
Speaker 1: you gotta sneak at the Higgins and Lauren Lauren and

1117
00:58:57,480 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 1: then like going over your head the way the system

1118
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:06,080
Speaker 1: is well nothing, See, I don't have an agenda, so nothing.

1119
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 8: You don't have to go over my head.

1120
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:13,120
Speaker 5: If you perses of where a writer or a cast

1121
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:16,600
Speaker 5: member like kind of goo wright is back to good.

1122
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:21,680
Speaker 5: I feel like, what when like, we don't have an agenda?

1123
00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,320
Speaker 5: So when a writer will come up to us or

1124
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:26,080
Speaker 5: whatever and tell us, like about a sketch they want

1125
00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:27,960
Speaker 5: to do, or an idea that they have or whatever,

1126
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:31,680
Speaker 5: if we think it might be like a disaster, we'll

1127
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:33,920
Speaker 5: be like, well, I mean, we'll try to kind of

1128
00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:36,560
Speaker 5: redirect the idea. But at the end of the day,

1129
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 5: you got the computer, you write it, you put the

1130
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,480
Speaker 5: script out. If it plays at the table, everybody hears

1131
00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:45,120
Speaker 5: it at the same time. If it plays it seems

1132
00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:48,520
Speaker 5: like something that can be done, then that's your argument,

1133
00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:51,000
Speaker 5: you know what I mean? Yo, it worked, it killed?

1134
00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,680
Speaker 5: Why is this not going on? Then they might go

1135
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 5: to lawn after that. But Lorn makes that decision. Is

1136
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 5: it wise to we help him? But he makes that

1137
00:59:58,720 --> 01:00:01,840
Speaker 5: decision ultimately of what we should be producing, what's what

1138
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:05,000
Speaker 5: shouldn't be produced? Is it wise to choose a partner?

1139
01:00:05,120 --> 01:00:06,640
Speaker 1: Like if you come in there on your own, like

1140
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:10,720
Speaker 1: I'm alone writer, Yeah, is it wise for me to say, Okay?

1141
01:00:11,240 --> 01:00:14,600
Speaker 1: So Kate McKinnon is being used a lot more than

1142
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:18,960
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah. So you know, hey, Kate,

1143
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:20,800
Speaker 1: I got an idea for you, or let's write a

1144
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:21,400
Speaker 1: thing together.

1145
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:27,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, it becomes that's the first move. That's the first move.

1146
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 1: Usually I don't want to know who's the barbershop share

1147
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:32,960
Speaker 1: that no one wants to go to the guy.

1148
01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:40,080
Speaker 5: That doesn't cut number five. Yeah, but it's how Also

1149
01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:42,520
Speaker 5: it becomes a chemistry thing. It also becomes like because

1150
01:00:42,560 --> 01:00:44,680
Speaker 5: you got to think you're in a room with this person.

1151
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:47,360
Speaker 5: So if you can't get along with somebody, you think

1152
01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:49,640
Speaker 5: they're weird, like you don't want to be in there

1153
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,880
Speaker 5: trying to But that's my question. All right now, I

1154
01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:54,040
Speaker 5: hate to throw you under the bus.

1155
01:00:54,720 --> 01:00:59,800
Speaker 6: So yeah, John love he loves him.

1156
01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:06,280
Speaker 5: See right now, before you throw me under the there's

1157
01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 5: still times of Steve's kind of the resident oscular grouch

1158
01:01:11,360 --> 01:01:15,120
Speaker 5: at at thirty on on the sixth floor. No, yeah,

1159
01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:18,880
Speaker 5: he is, but like like a lovable grump. You know,

1160
01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,560
Speaker 5: people know everyone loves Steve, but it's like a lovable grump.

1161
01:01:22,640 --> 01:01:27,160
Speaker 5: But the thing is is that what if you have

1162
01:01:27,320 --> 01:01:32,560
Speaker 5: the goods as a writer, but you might have aford

1163
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:44,000
Speaker 5: to have an he got it. Yeah, like person, this

1164
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:49,520
Speaker 5: guy is funny, right, but he loved him him you know, no, yeah,

1165
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 5: I mean that happens too. I mean like that's it's

1166
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 5: it is political, like like anything else would be. You know,

1167
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,720
Speaker 5: a lot of it just becomes you know, that's when

1168
01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:03,040
Speaker 5: the producers kind of step in because they you know,

1169
01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 5: they kind of go around and they find out what

1170
01:02:04,800 --> 01:02:05,600
Speaker 5: everybody's writing.

1171
01:02:05,680 --> 01:02:06,840
Speaker 8: Hey, what are you guys working on? What are you

1172
01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:07,200
Speaker 8: working on?

1173
01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:09,160
Speaker 5: Okay, oh that'll be good, or we need more table,

1174
01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:11,280
Speaker 5: we need more of this whatever. So in those discussions

1175
01:02:11,280 --> 01:02:14,520
Speaker 5: they realize, hey, this cast member is not being written

1176
01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 5: for as much or whatever, so maybe you know, and

1177
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:18,760
Speaker 5: then we'll kind of like, okay, well, well what could

1178
01:02:18,760 --> 01:02:20,840
Speaker 5: be something that they can do? And then you make

1179
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:22,360
Speaker 5: sure that you have covered You kind of make sure

1180
01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,959
Speaker 5: everybody has a shot at the table, everybody has something

1181
01:02:25,040 --> 01:02:27,640
Speaker 5: at the table. Do you feel a that's something that

1182
01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 5: becomes a responsibility when you're as a head writer and

1183
01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:33,919
Speaker 5: as a producer that maybe you didn't even think about

1184
01:02:34,200 --> 01:02:40,640
Speaker 5: as a regular writer. So when you're a head writer,

1185
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:43,400
Speaker 5: what's the difference between your head writer you're kind of

1186
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:48,440
Speaker 5: you know, you're it's more decision making. Okay, it's more

1187
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:49,560
Speaker 5: it's more decision making.

1188
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 1: Do you do you feel a well, I guess we

1189
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:57,600
Speaker 1: all feel pressure as black people, But do you feel

1190
01:02:57,760 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 1: a pressure in.

1191
01:02:59,200 --> 01:03:01,600
Speaker 5: This sort of unspoken tug of war.

1192
01:03:03,600 --> 01:03:10,520
Speaker 1: Battle to make where you work reflective of where America

1193
01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:14,880
Speaker 1: is now as opposed to the comfort zone that SNL

1194
01:03:15,000 --> 01:03:17,240
Speaker 1: was associated with. Like, I can assume my idea that

1195
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 1: you're not an avid, obsessive SNL.

1196
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:23,320
Speaker 5: Right, exactly.

1197
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:29,680
Speaker 6: A update because not for nothing I do, right, No,

1198
01:03:29,840 --> 01:03:31,400
Speaker 6: I get it if I see me, I'm on, I'm

1199
01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:31,680
Speaker 6: on it.

1200
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:36,640
Speaker 1: But right, see, but I respect the institution of comedy,

1201
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 1: so I'd watch it regardless.

1202
01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:46,000
Speaker 5: But I will say that now that I think now

1203
01:03:46,040 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 5: that they're aware that, okay, we have to be more inclusive.

1204
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 7: Of now that they were forced and pressure about a

1205
01:03:52,280 --> 01:03:54,600
Speaker 7: few years ago with the higher of two black ladies.

1206
01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 1: Right, But I also feels like, you know, you have

1207
01:03:57,320 --> 01:04:01,240
Speaker 1: to reflect what America true is, like there's no hiding

1208
01:04:01,320 --> 01:04:03,480
Speaker 1: it anymore, right it used to be.

1209
01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:06,080
Speaker 5: Well, it's so funny you say that, because I was

1210
01:04:06,160 --> 01:04:08,640
Speaker 5: just talking to somebody at the show about this yesterday,

1211
01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:14,400
Speaker 5: and I always feel like when people bring up diversity

1212
01:04:14,400 --> 01:04:18,720
Speaker 5: they always bring up, just like different colors of people

1213
01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:23,000
Speaker 5: that think the same, you know, And I kind of

1214
01:04:23,160 --> 01:04:25,080
Speaker 5: like the idea. I kind of like the tension in

1215
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:28,760
Speaker 5: the show of people having different beliefs and people kind

1216
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:31,439
Speaker 5: of having different That's what makes it a variety show.

1217
01:04:31,560 --> 01:04:34,400
Speaker 5: That's what makes it so, you know, I kind of

1218
01:04:34,520 --> 01:04:38,200
Speaker 5: I like personally just kind of writing stuff that's a

1219
01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:42,160
Speaker 5: little bit against what maybe people think a liberal comedy

1220
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:44,200
Speaker 5: show should be or whatever, because we're really not a

1221
01:04:44,320 --> 01:04:46,760
Speaker 5: liberal show. We're a variety show. We're supposed to be

1222
01:04:47,560 --> 01:04:50,600
Speaker 5: what America is, and America isn't one thing. America isn't

1223
01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 5: all on the left.

1224
01:04:51,480 --> 01:04:52,280
Speaker 6: And I'm cologized.

1225
01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:54,360
Speaker 7: I forgot that Michael now is the head writer, which

1226
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,280
Speaker 7: option been writing watching ever since they made that announcement,

1227
01:04:57,320 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 7: because now I can because I know there's a voice

1228
01:04:59,320 --> 01:04:59,920
Speaker 7: of higher up making this.

1229
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:02,120
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, I mean what I'm saying. The idea of

1230
01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:06,400
Speaker 5: Black Jeopardy probably probably wouldn't have flown, but it was

1231
01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:09,320
Speaker 5: so authentic and so good. I was like, it's honest

1232
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:12,040
Speaker 5: for me and some you know y'all like yeah, I

1233
01:05:12,080 --> 01:05:14,880
Speaker 5: hear you laughing a mirror like that sort of yeah, yeah, yeah,

1234
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:19,400
Speaker 5: Like where I'm laughing louder than the people that slept

1235
01:05:19,440 --> 01:05:22,640
Speaker 5: ten hours on the sidewalk to watch kill Swift perform.

1236
01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 5: Its like, is there ever a concern?

1237
01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,800
Speaker 8: You just said a very interesting thing. But what you

1238
01:05:29,000 --> 01:05:30,400
Speaker 8: just said a very interesting thing.

1239
01:05:31,200 --> 01:05:34,439
Speaker 5: Which makes our show so unique is that our show

1240
01:05:35,000 --> 01:05:37,880
Speaker 5: we never know who our audience is gonna be. Our

1241
01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 5: show could be all hairl of Swift fans. Ow I

1242
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 5: gotta do North Korea jokes for the people that came

1243
01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 5: to see the one direction it might not work the same,

1244
01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,040
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Or your sketch whatever, you

1245
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:50,640
Speaker 5: could have a political sketch for, you know, the Bruno

1246
01:05:50,720 --> 01:05:53,080
Speaker 5: Mars from whoever and or vice versa. You know, you

1247
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:55,919
Speaker 5: could have kind of a uh, you know, I feel

1248
01:05:55,960 --> 01:06:01,680
Speaker 5: like the musical act dictates dictates, uh, the musical as

1249
01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:05,479
Speaker 5: what audience is going to be there typically because music

1250
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:08,800
Speaker 5: fans are a little bit different than actor fans, you know,

1251
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:11,160
Speaker 5: so the host, the host usually has a fan base

1252
01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 5: of you know, it's recognizable, but the music is the

1253
01:06:13,640 --> 01:06:16,200
Speaker 5: motherfucker's just camping out, you know what I mean. So,

1254
01:06:16,480 --> 01:06:18,040
Speaker 5: I mean, you know, it's just different. You never know

1255
01:06:18,680 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 5: who there is. John Stewart does his show. They didn't

1256
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:24,280
Speaker 5: see John Stewart or Colbert Jimmy like they did see Jimmy.

1257
01:06:24,320 --> 01:06:26,040
Speaker 5: You know. So it's it's a little bit different for

1258
01:06:26,160 --> 01:06:29,160
Speaker 5: us because the Starter show is our cast and our host, and.

1259
01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:31,640
Speaker 6: When it comes it is like all the Black America

1260
01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:32,240
Speaker 6: swoop down.

1261
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:37,560
Speaker 5: There's certain there's certain black shows that we have that's like,

1262
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:39,600
Speaker 5: oh boy, my phone was about to be.

1263
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:44,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, like Glover, it was like a ship.

1264
01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:51,840
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, Donald Glover, Drake of course, Kevin Hart,

1265
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,240
Speaker 5: of course, any chappelle forget about it. It was what

1266
01:06:55,360 --> 01:07:00,440
Speaker 5: was a chappelle and tribe was Tiffany had I got

1267
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:02,120
Speaker 5: a lot of I got a lot of calls tif one.

1268
01:07:03,000 --> 01:07:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I was shocked. I got in a few

1269
01:07:06,200 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 1: of those. It's my dream to actually be an intern there.

1270
01:07:09,360 --> 01:07:09,600
Speaker 5: So that.

1271
01:07:12,040 --> 01:07:14,160
Speaker 1: Like for me, like Higgins is like, no, man, you

1272
01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,760
Speaker 1: can't come to pitch meetings, but I just want to

1273
01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:21,840
Speaker 1: see how pitch meetings are, just so I can figure

1274
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:23,960
Speaker 1: out how that machine runs.

1275
01:07:24,040 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 7: But you have a thirty rock show in you you

1276
01:07:25,960 --> 01:07:27,680
Speaker 7: know that there's like a whole show in that building

1277
01:07:27,720 --> 01:07:28,479
Speaker 7: that you could just host.

1278
01:07:29,080 --> 01:07:31,000
Speaker 1: I you know, we talk about that all the time,

1279
01:07:31,120 --> 01:07:34,920
Speaker 1: like what happens out of the show is actually that's

1280
01:07:35,280 --> 01:07:38,160
Speaker 1: more funnier and interesting than you know, the shows that

1281
01:07:38,240 --> 01:07:38,760
Speaker 1: are produced.

1282
01:07:38,760 --> 01:07:42,360
Speaker 7: There is it a pressure for a Lauren Michael's produced movie,

1283
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:45,080
Speaker 7: Like what's the process? Because it feels like Lauren only

1284
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 7: really produces the movies that his people are in. But

1285
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:49,680
Speaker 7: is there pressure or is there like, Okay, I know

1286
01:07:49,800 --> 01:07:52,040
Speaker 7: this is an added incentive that I might get him

1287
01:07:52,200 --> 01:07:53,960
Speaker 7: behind it, so I need to write something.

1288
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:55,880
Speaker 8: Is there a pressure to make one?

1289
01:07:56,040 --> 01:08:00,920
Speaker 5: Yeah? Oh, I'm never really I'm never really into anything

1290
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:02,960
Speaker 5: like that. Like I'm always like, what if I have

1291
01:08:03,040 --> 01:08:05,880
Speaker 5: a good idea, how do we execute the idea? I

1292
01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 5: think it comes from doing that's enough for so long.

1293
01:08:09,560 --> 01:08:12,360
Speaker 5: It's just like if I have an idea, that's if

1294
01:08:12,400 --> 01:08:14,640
Speaker 5: it's a sketch, I'm like, oh, this will probably be

1295
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:16,360
Speaker 5: better as a live sketule. This will probably better as

1296
01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:17,760
Speaker 5: a pre table, This will probably be better as a

1297
01:08:17,840 --> 01:08:20,040
Speaker 5: sitcom script, but this will probably be better as a movie.

1298
01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:22,920
Speaker 5: Like that's whatever it is to execute it is how

1299
01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:27,000
Speaker 5: how I go by I's to hear you talk. You're

1300
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 5: so nonchalant about it that it's like, hey, you know that,

1301
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:36,400
Speaker 5: Whereas like when when when Pharaoh was there? There was

1302
01:08:36,479 --> 01:08:39,280
Speaker 5: always like the hope of tomorrow, Like Okay, no, this

1303
01:08:40,640 --> 01:08:42,880
Speaker 5: is gonna be my moment. No, no, you know that's

1304
01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:46,800
Speaker 5: not how comedy works, man, you know. But the thing

1305
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:51,519
Speaker 5: is is that for you to just get in the

1306
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:55,320
Speaker 5: comedy less than eleven twelve years ago, Like how do

1307
01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:56,439
Speaker 5: you have this sage?

1308
01:08:56,800 --> 01:09:01,559
Speaker 7: Like because I enjoy it, You're like in the moment.

1309
01:09:01,600 --> 01:09:03,880
Speaker 7: Most people don't. They're not in the moment working for

1310
01:09:03,960 --> 01:09:04,360
Speaker 7: the next one.

1311
01:09:04,479 --> 01:09:07,080
Speaker 5: Look, I've met in a moment because I enjoyed the moment,

1312
01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:09,400
Speaker 5: Like this is fun for me, you know what I mean.

1313
01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:12,040
Speaker 5: So it's like this is you know, like this is

1314
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,360
Speaker 5: this right here is fun and producing something that's fun

1315
01:09:15,439 --> 01:09:17,640
Speaker 5: and right being in the writing room is fun. So

1316
01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:19,719
Speaker 5: I'm not in the rush to leave or do something

1317
01:09:19,760 --> 01:09:21,640
Speaker 5: else if I'm having fun doing this, you know what

1318
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 5: I mean. I feel like a lot of people are

1319
01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:25,400
Speaker 5: always kind of trying to find that next thing. Once

1320
01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:27,920
Speaker 5: they get it, it's not it's not fun, and they're like, well,

1321
01:09:27,960 --> 01:09:30,720
Speaker 5: what's the others the next? I enjoy this part of it.

1322
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:32,360
Speaker 7: So now that we know that you're not in a

1323
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:34,360
Speaker 7: rush to do things, which is why we haven't seen

1324
01:09:34,360 --> 01:09:36,600
Speaker 7: you in too many projects. But However, I don't like

1325
01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,880
Speaker 7: when we saw you in Top five, I was like, okay, so.

1326
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:44,040
Speaker 8: This a whole scene, fucking cut. I'm going to I'm

1327
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:45,360
Speaker 8: going to direct this floor.

1328
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:47,280
Speaker 5: I don't know. I'm still mad at Chris.

1329
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 6: But you did it, which is like that.

1330
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:52,640
Speaker 4: I was.

1331
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:54,320
Speaker 8: I had a whole thing.

1332
01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:55,640
Speaker 5: It was like me and Chris like one on one,

1333
01:09:55,920 --> 01:09:58,160
Speaker 5: I'm telling him to go to the projects and then

1334
01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,759
Speaker 5: and then but why in the movie, as like somebody

1335
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:05,559
Speaker 5: that like has to make those decisions. I'm like, oh yeah,

1336
01:10:05,560 --> 01:10:07,600
Speaker 5: I guess that was a stupid transitional scene that you

1337
01:10:07,680 --> 01:10:10,559
Speaker 5: did not need or whatever. But I was still mad

1338
01:10:10,600 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 5: that I that I was cut.

1339
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 7: But what was that like in that scene with all

1340
01:10:14,120 --> 01:10:15,600
Speaker 7: of those people at that one time, because you know

1341
01:10:15,720 --> 01:10:17,240
Speaker 7: when he went back to the projects and it was

1342
01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:19,080
Speaker 7: like you Sherry Shepherd.

1343
01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:21,840
Speaker 5: Chris, Chris just the shit out of me, and that

1344
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:24,000
Speaker 5: during that what you call it, it was hilarious. He

1345
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:27,120
Speaker 5: goes we were because I remember in that that XM studio,

1346
01:10:27,920 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 5: that scene it's me and him and Rosario and Rosario.

1347
01:10:30,960 --> 01:10:32,400
Speaker 8: I'm like starstruck.

1348
01:10:32,479 --> 01:10:36,519
Speaker 5: I was, you know, and I'm like holy ship and

1349
01:10:36,640 --> 01:10:39,320
Speaker 5: she's like nice where You're like, oh my God, I

1350
01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:43,240
Speaker 5: think I think she loves me anytime. Exactly. She's just

1351
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,400
Speaker 5: like a nice person that happens to beautiful like this,

1352
01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:49,240
Speaker 5: she must love me. She was super nice and then

1353
01:10:49,400 --> 01:10:51,920
Speaker 5: uh she was. She was like, where are you from?

1354
01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:53,880
Speaker 5: Because she's from the Lower east Side too, so we

1355
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:55,559
Speaker 5: were talking about like the Lower east Side and she's like.

1356
01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,080
Speaker 8: Have I met you before? And I'm like, I don't.

1357
01:10:58,280 --> 01:11:00,920
Speaker 8: I don't think so, And that's all Chris Hurt.

1358
01:11:01,400 --> 01:11:04,720
Speaker 5: You don't think so. You don't know if you met

1359
01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:09,800
Speaker 5: Rosario Dawson, I don't know. And everybody's just dying like

1360
01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:12,599
Speaker 5: have you met Beyonce? You remember that nigg.

1361
01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:20,120
Speaker 8: Like and I'm like on set like an action.

1362
01:11:20,120 --> 01:11:21,200
Speaker 5: Like I don't know what I'm doing.

1363
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,040
Speaker 8: Just give me out of here, just give me my

1364
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:24,200
Speaker 8: Uber pull back.

1365
01:11:25,000 --> 01:11:27,320
Speaker 5: So wait, what was your reaction when they told you

1366
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:30,920
Speaker 5: we want you to try a weaken up dates? My

1367
01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:36,559
Speaker 5: reaction was no? Initially you said no initially? I mean

1368
01:11:36,600 --> 01:11:41,000
Speaker 5: it was like, it's the same reaction I hosting Emmy.

1369
01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:44,720
Speaker 5: I'm like, I don't know that, but could you collectively

1370
01:11:44,920 --> 01:11:48,720
Speaker 5: feel all of Black America watching you to make sure

1371
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:49,080
Speaker 5: that you know?

1372
01:11:49,560 --> 01:11:51,960
Speaker 8: I never really, I never thought it'd be that I

1373
01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:52,639
Speaker 8: never thought.

1374
01:11:54,640 --> 01:11:56,960
Speaker 5: I always thought, if you if you let me talk,

1375
01:11:57,400 --> 01:11:58,840
Speaker 5: if you let me say what I want to say,

1376
01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:02,479
Speaker 5: somebody's gonna notice what I'm saying because I just like

1377
01:12:02,640 --> 01:12:04,479
Speaker 5: to say shit like that. You know.

1378
01:12:04,680 --> 01:12:05,960
Speaker 8: That's like since kindergarten.

1379
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:12,439
Speaker 5: But on Weekend Update, the format was so rigid that

1380
01:12:12,560 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 5: it took me like maybe two seasons to even feel

1381
01:12:16,240 --> 01:12:18,519
Speaker 5: like I could say what I wanted to say, just

1382
01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:20,760
Speaker 5: because it was it was already. It's such a set

1383
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:24,800
Speaker 5: formula that we were doing. I always feel like there's

1384
01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 5: like anybody on TV has like there's like a stepdad

1385
01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:31,960
Speaker 5: period for a lot of people that's replacing somebody. So

1386
01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:34,599
Speaker 5: a lot of times the audience is going to reject

1387
01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:36,280
Speaker 5: you anyway like a step dad, just because you're not

1388
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:38,080
Speaker 5: just because you're not that, you know what I mean.

1389
01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:40,280
Speaker 5: Like if I think I saw like Trevor go through it,

1390
01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:45,759
Speaker 5: and you see I saw, you know, yes, Stephen, Stephen

1391
01:12:45,800 --> 01:12:48,280
Speaker 5: Colbert certainly with you know, just it's just it's not

1392
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:51,559
Speaker 5: let him in. So I don't like it because it's

1393
01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:53,519
Speaker 5: not let them and it's like, yeah, but that's Stephen Colbert,

1394
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:56,280
Speaker 5: but it's not let you know what I mean? Huh,

1395
01:12:56,560 --> 01:12:59,719
Speaker 5: you get after a while right now YouTube my favorite comment,

1396
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:02,800
Speaker 5: I'm like, who's polaring? Well, I don't know. That's because

1397
01:13:02,840 --> 01:13:05,360
Speaker 5: when you when you, when you start doing, when you

1398
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 5: start doing you, when you start doing it, they realized, well, okay,

1399
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:10,080
Speaker 5: he's not good.

1400
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:17,679
Speaker 8: That's not coming back, is not coming back, and I'm waking.

1401
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:20,040
Speaker 7: Pretty use of that role change in like every decade.

1402
01:13:20,160 --> 01:13:23,400
Speaker 7: I feel like, yeah, like Dennis millerded, but you have.

1403
01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:25,960
Speaker 5: To make it yours. There was a point, there was

1404
01:13:26,000 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 5: like a turning point for me on the show where

1405
01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:31,519
Speaker 5: I was like, if I didn't show up to work

1406
01:13:31,720 --> 01:13:34,679
Speaker 5: and someone else did this job, no one would care

1407
01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,160
Speaker 5: because there's nothing that I'm saying that only I can say.

1408
01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:42,599
Speaker 5: And that was how I started writing, when I was like, well,

1409
01:13:42,640 --> 01:13:45,360
Speaker 5: what can I say that nobody else can say? Do

1410
01:13:45,439 --> 01:13:47,639
Speaker 5: you write? Or does someone else?

1411
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:48,040
Speaker 7: Now?

1412
01:13:48,280 --> 01:13:51,240
Speaker 5: Just now I write? At first, I didn't write any

1413
01:13:51,320 --> 01:13:54,160
Speaker 5: of it for like a season, I didn't write any

1414
01:13:54,160 --> 01:13:57,120
Speaker 5: of them and then and now and Lauren would be like,

1415
01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:59,080
Speaker 5: you need to write it, and I was like, well

1416
01:13:59,200 --> 01:13:59,519
Speaker 5: I don't.

1417
01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:02,640
Speaker 8: I don't think you realize what I write, you.

1418
01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:05,000
Speaker 5: Know what I mean? I didn't know remember in Trading

1419
01:14:05,080 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 5: Places when they brought Eddie Murray to the house and

1420
01:14:07,640 --> 01:14:09,000
Speaker 5: he was in there was like, this is all your

1421
01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:12,880
Speaker 5: stuff and he's still stealing you. Like, no, you don't understand,

1422
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:16,719
Speaker 5: you're you're stealing your stuff. Like that's how I felt

1423
01:14:16,760 --> 01:14:19,600
Speaker 5: at the show. They were like, just take control of it.

1424
01:14:19,800 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 5: And I'd be like, yeah, okay, whatever, Hey what should

1425
01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:25,040
Speaker 5: I say next? They said, no, say what you want

1426
01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:27,160
Speaker 5: to say. So after a while I was like, slide

1427
01:14:27,200 --> 01:14:30,559
Speaker 5: in one and then I would be like, oh, I'm

1428
01:14:30,600 --> 01:14:32,800
Speaker 5: not okay, I slide in two. And the next thing

1429
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:34,080
Speaker 5: I know, I was like, all right, this is what

1430
01:14:34,160 --> 01:14:36,040
Speaker 5: we're going to do. How much research do you have

1431
01:14:36,120 --> 01:14:38,800
Speaker 5: to do? Like do you now have to obsessively watch

1432
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,960
Speaker 5: MSNBC and Fox News? And I don't. Everybody is everybody

1433
01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:46,560
Speaker 5: prizes himself that everybody that does my job or my

1434
01:14:46,680 --> 01:14:48,720
Speaker 5: type of job prizes himself to being the smartest guy

1435
01:14:48,760 --> 01:14:51,479
Speaker 5: in the room. I try to take the perspective of

1436
01:14:51,600 --> 01:14:53,200
Speaker 5: the guy that does that's the smartest guy in the

1437
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:55,800
Speaker 5: room that doesn't know anything about what's going on. Like

1438
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 5: I tried. My grandmother is my comedy influence. When it

1439
01:14:58,439 --> 01:15:00,519
Speaker 5: comes to a weekend update, I'm like, if I told

1440
01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:04,360
Speaker 5: my grandmother what happened. What would her reaction immediate? You

1441
01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:07,679
Speaker 5: know what I mean? And that's how you get cheap cracker,

1442
01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:10,920
Speaker 5: you know what I mean, That's how you get that though.

1443
01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:13,599
Speaker 5: It's just like, what's the what do people who don't

1444
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,880
Speaker 5: watch the news all the time? I think when they

1445
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,320
Speaker 5: hear this ship, it's like the kind of lowest common

1446
01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 5: denominator of where's that connection? And that's kind of where

1447
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:25,320
Speaker 5: I write from. But you know that's my thing, and

1448
01:15:25,479 --> 01:15:29,479
Speaker 5: Colin does the other thing and then it so jump

1449
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:34,519
Speaker 5: into the Emmys? How long does it well to August? Now?

1450
01:15:34,560 --> 01:15:36,559
Speaker 5: And when when are they? We just had our first

1451
01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:39,200
Speaker 5: We just had a meeting yesterday, not our first meeting,

1452
01:15:39,240 --> 01:15:43,240
Speaker 5: but we had a meeting, a meeting yesterday. We're gonna

1453
01:15:43,320 --> 01:15:45,200
Speaker 5: it's gonna be fun. I think we would be the

1454
01:15:45,439 --> 01:15:47,600
Speaker 5: SNL team that you work with? Are you working with?

1455
01:15:47,760 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 5: The is there an mmy team? We got we got

1456
01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:51,160
Speaker 5: a few ringers, but we got a lot of us

1457
01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:53,960
Speaker 5: and know people and we kind of got a good balance.

1458
01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:58,080
Speaker 1: Does it require like are you you know, are you

1459
01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:05,360
Speaker 1: entertaining uh you know, spirit fingers, musical opening or is

1460
01:16:05,439 --> 01:16:07,640
Speaker 1: it just like all right?

1461
01:16:07,640 --> 01:16:10,479
Speaker 5: There might be something might be some elements of music.

1462
01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:15,160
Speaker 5: We wanted to feel like Essenel is hosting the Yemmy's,

1463
01:16:15,479 --> 01:16:18,880
Speaker 5: but while still keeping the integrity of the Yemmys, you know,

1464
01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:20,760
Speaker 5: like we don't want to kind of spoof it or

1465
01:16:20,920 --> 01:16:22,479
Speaker 5: lampoon it. But is it me?

1466
01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:26,000
Speaker 7: Me thinks Lauren also got a special relationship with the

1467
01:16:26,080 --> 01:16:28,800
Speaker 7: Emmys because, like in retrospect you think about the Tina Amy,

1468
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:30,840
Speaker 7: like a lot of alums have kind of hosted that.

1469
01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:32,840
Speaker 5: As well well, the way they did Well Amy did

1470
01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:39,160
Speaker 5: goldenlu They rotated through the networks the Emmys, so like this,

1471
01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:44,799
Speaker 5: so when NBC has it, I think it's been Jimmy,

1472
01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:47,320
Speaker 5: and it's been Jimmy is like four years ago, and

1473
01:16:47,479 --> 01:16:48,599
Speaker 5: Seth's done it before.

1474
01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:51,320
Speaker 7: They have a favorite host so far, Like for awarding

1475
01:16:51,960 --> 01:16:53,880
Speaker 7: any award show? Have you watched an award show once?

1476
01:16:53,920 --> 01:16:56,160
Speaker 5: He was like, Yo, I like Tina Aamy a lot.

1477
01:16:56,200 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 5: I think they I think I love what they do together.

1478
01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:00,479
Speaker 5: I think they're they're really good. And I think I

1479
01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:02,439
Speaker 5: think there are two people that when they do what

1480
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:05,080
Speaker 5: they can do, what only they can do. You know

1481
01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:05,479
Speaker 5: what I mean.

1482
01:17:05,560 --> 01:17:08,000
Speaker 8: I guess you can't just have two random people do

1483
01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:08,719
Speaker 8: the same app.

1484
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:11,519
Speaker 1: I was going to say since it's such a staple

1485
01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:14,120
Speaker 1: where you know you have the Peacha delivery guy in

1486
01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 1: the audience thing, you should just take them to like

1487
01:17:18,160 --> 01:17:19,120
Speaker 1: Roscoes or something.

1488
01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:21,120
Speaker 5: I would love I would love to put I got

1489
01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:24,040
Speaker 5: we got a couple of tricks of us. I got

1490
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:25,680
Speaker 5: a couple of tricks of us leaves that we were

1491
01:17:25,720 --> 01:17:27,479
Speaker 5: talking about that could be really fun. I'll tell you.

1492
01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:29,840
Speaker 5: I can't spoil it. Don't spoil'll kill me.

1493
01:17:29,920 --> 01:17:31,719
Speaker 6: But you're gonna have you need some que cars because

1494
01:17:31,720 --> 01:17:32,360
Speaker 6: you don't watch TV.

1495
01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:34,360
Speaker 5: So all those people in the audit we got que cars.

1496
01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:37,360
Speaker 5: Then we got what you call it to problem. Yeah, hopefully,

1497
01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:39,400
Speaker 5: Well we got to figure all that out though, because

1498
01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:42,080
Speaker 5: you can't show the que cars on TV. So actually

1499
01:17:42,120 --> 01:17:44,560
Speaker 5: by the time this air is this it will have

1500
01:17:45,720 --> 01:17:46,240
Speaker 5: when it's the.

1501
01:17:46,240 --> 01:17:48,760
Speaker 6: Air date again for the Emmys, I think late September.

1502
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:55,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, like I think time spoil it? No, no, no,

1503
01:17:56,280 --> 01:18:01,880
Speaker 5: maybe all right, I don't know. I don't know Mario

1504
01:18:02,000 --> 01:18:12,640
Speaker 5: one about that unlikely, so I didn't I didn't get it.

1505
01:18:12,680 --> 01:18:14,280
Speaker 5: I was like, this ship is a hit, y'all really

1506
01:18:14,400 --> 01:18:16,960
Speaker 5: like this song? Yeah, Mario.

1507
01:18:18,320 --> 01:18:21,800
Speaker 6: Favorite, I think about Mario Wrio.

1508
01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:27,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, I didn't know, so any any plans for any

1509
01:18:27,680 --> 01:18:29,680
Speaker 5: other stand up specials.

1510
01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:31,920
Speaker 8: Or yeah I'm working on the special now.

1511
01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:35,000
Speaker 5: But another one that I think is where I feel

1512
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:38,320
Speaker 5: like specials are just not really because so many people

1513
01:18:38,439 --> 01:18:43,960
Speaker 5: have specials that it's almost like, yeah, it's special anymore money, Yeah,

1514
01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:45,920
Speaker 5: they gave me a little it was it was okay,

1515
01:18:46,000 --> 01:18:49,400
Speaker 5: they didn't they didn't monique me, they didn't me. They

1516
01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:52,439
Speaker 5: did they took care of me a little bit. But uh,

1517
01:18:53,160 --> 01:18:55,160
Speaker 5: it's it's not even so much. I don't know. I

1518
01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:57,000
Speaker 5: just feel I always like to go against the ground.

1519
01:18:57,000 --> 01:18:58,680
Speaker 5: Everybody's going one way, I kind of want to go

1520
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:01,679
Speaker 5: another way. I was thinking of something a little bit different.

1521
01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:05,400
Speaker 5: Everybody seems to be trying to do stuff a little

1522
01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:09,679
Speaker 5: bit more conceptual. Now that's, you know, just because they're

1523
01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:13,200
Speaker 5: trying to stand out. But I don't know, it's just specials.

1524
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:18,960
Speaker 5: It's just weird, like when you have access to producing them,

1525
01:19:19,120 --> 01:19:20,920
Speaker 5: when it's when it's not like four year. When I

1526
01:19:21,000 --> 01:19:22,840
Speaker 5: was a kid, it was like four specials would come

1527
01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 5: out a year, Like you waited for Chris Rock Special

1528
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:27,600
Speaker 5: because that was one of three specials that.

1529
01:19:27,640 --> 01:19:29,439
Speaker 8: You were going to get to see Kat Williams or whatever.

1530
01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:31,840
Speaker 5: And that's kind of why they were so big, and

1531
01:19:31,880 --> 01:19:34,960
Speaker 5: when the special came on repeat, it was that one,

1532
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:36,560
Speaker 5: so everybody kind of knew it.

1533
01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:40,839
Speaker 8: And I feel like, now there's ten a week have Netflix.

1534
01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:45,479
Speaker 6: It's like, who oh yeah, a millennial nasty comedian.

1535
01:19:46,360 --> 01:19:49,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's a lot, and not just Netflix, it's

1536
01:19:49,320 --> 01:19:51,960
Speaker 5: just it's everywhere. But the cool thing that I do

1537
01:19:52,160 --> 01:19:54,479
Speaker 5: like about Netflix though not just because they paid me last,

1538
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:59,840
Speaker 5: but they people tend to watch multiple in a row,

1539
01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:03,880
Speaker 5: so like like when Dave's special comes out, I get

1540
01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:06,400
Speaker 5: a lot of hits about my special because I'm like, oh,

1541
01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:07,040
Speaker 5: so you saw it?

1542
01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:10,559
Speaker 8: Was like if you like that guy, yeah, and then

1543
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:12,000
Speaker 8: they kind of throw you out.

1544
01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:14,960
Speaker 5: So it is cool because the people that are going

1545
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:17,880
Speaker 5: like looking for one guy will you know, discover a

1546
01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:18,439
Speaker 5: lot more.

1547
01:20:18,760 --> 01:20:20,479
Speaker 8: So that is that is a benefit.

1548
01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:23,559
Speaker 5: But for me, I just think conceptually to make people

1549
01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:25,960
Speaker 5: talk about it, it can't just be did you hear

1550
01:20:26,080 --> 01:20:28,360
Speaker 5: his you see his special? It's gotta be did you

1551
01:20:28,400 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 5: see this thing about that? You know? It's got to

1552
01:20:30,000 --> 01:20:34,360
Speaker 5: be a little bit more interact with people on Yeah,

1553
01:20:34,840 --> 01:20:36,880
Speaker 5: Oh that's fun. I don't get to do that a

1554
01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:43,599
Speaker 5: lot anymore, but they don't let me. They don't yeah,

1555
01:20:43,600 --> 01:20:48,280
Speaker 5: they don't really are you. I know, I gotta start.

1556
01:20:48,479 --> 01:20:49,719
Speaker 5: I gotta start dragging my nuts.

1557
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:50,160
Speaker 7: Man.

1558
01:20:50,200 --> 01:20:51,720

1562
01:21:02,760 --> 01:21:07,360
Speaker 5: word the fun up, Here's what happened here. So I

1563
01:21:07,479 --> 01:21:11,240
Speaker 5: got hit up by page six on Facebook. Literally she

1564
01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:14,639
Speaker 5: was like, hey, we got this, uh this lady that's

1565
01:21:14,680 --> 01:21:16,960
Speaker 5: been saying that you did x y Z the hood

1566
01:21:17,040 --> 01:21:20,080
Speaker 5: and you know you were really mean and rude and nasty,

1567
01:21:20,120 --> 01:21:22,080
Speaker 5: and she We're gonna run the story.

1568
01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:23,759
Speaker 8: Do you have any comments?

1569
01:21:23,760 --> 01:21:25,599
Speaker 5: And she showed me the story she was gonna run,

1570
01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:28,000
Speaker 5: and it was just basically close on it that I

1571
01:21:28,080 --> 01:21:30,240
Speaker 5: was a piece of ships that I was like, did

1572
01:21:30,280 --> 01:21:31,799
Speaker 5: this you know, just from texting?

1573
01:21:32,040 --> 01:21:33,719
Speaker 8: And I was like, none of that shit happened.

1574
01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:35,800
Speaker 5: Like I have every text and it's not even that

1575
01:21:35,880 --> 01:21:38,519
Speaker 5: I saved text, it's just I never delete text. Yeah,

1576
01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:41,000
Speaker 5: I just don't think too, you know. So I was like, Yo,

1577
01:21:41,160 --> 01:21:43,800
Speaker 5: I found her number and I was like, this is

1578
01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,640
Speaker 5: every interaction I've ever had with her and I'm not

1579
01:21:46,680 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 5: even gonna tell you my side, I'll let you tell

1580
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:51,240
Speaker 5: me my side. And she was like, okay, can I

1581
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:53,120
Speaker 5: use these? And I was like, yeah, I'm thinking she

1582
01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:57,720
Speaker 5: means use a quote. She's gonna the fucking screenshots that

1583
01:21:57,840 --> 01:21:59,840
Speaker 5: I sent her, so it looked way it looked like

1584
01:21:59,880 --> 01:22:01,600
Speaker 5: I was trying to I was like, no, I was

1585
01:22:01,680 --> 01:22:03,880
Speaker 5: really just showing her, thinking that she was going to

1586
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:05,720
Speaker 5: quote one line or two or whatever and say well

1587
01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:08,000
Speaker 5: this is bullshit or even or take it to an

1588
01:22:08,080 --> 01:22:09,960
Speaker 5: editor and like hey, we can't run this story. And

1589
01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:12,160
Speaker 5: then they ran it, and then it kind of I

1590
01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:15,040
Speaker 5: almost wish I didn't say anything about it, because then

1591
01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:16,160
Speaker 5: maybe it just would have went away.

1592
01:22:16,760 --> 01:22:19,439
Speaker 8: But I also think if that ship would have.

1593
01:22:19,520 --> 01:22:22,040
Speaker 5: Ruined me, like in the climbing of me Too and

1594
01:22:22,160 --> 01:22:27,120
Speaker 5: the climbing of you know, the harassment, I would have

1595
01:22:27,160 --> 01:22:28,880
Speaker 5: never been able to defend myself. If I didn't have

1596
01:22:28,960 --> 01:22:31,160
Speaker 5: those no, no, no, I would have been fried. I

1597
01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:34,880
Speaker 5: appreciate you for clapping back. I was like, where the

1598
01:22:34,920 --> 01:22:35,280
Speaker 5: funk up?

1599
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:41,920
Speaker 8: No, that was my I learned my lesson. Yeah, that's

1600
01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:44,880
Speaker 8: what I mean. When's this come out?

1601
01:22:49,360 --> 01:23:03,000
Speaker 5: A wait? That was a rail celebrity, uh tender status.

1602
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:05,760
Speaker 6: Not necessarily.

1603
01:23:07,120 --> 01:23:08,679
Speaker 5: It's the same ship.

1604
01:23:09,520 --> 01:23:10,240
Speaker 6: No, you have to be.

1605
01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:15,759
Speaker 5: Accepted, you know, like how you go to the hallal

1606
01:23:15,840 --> 01:23:17,920
Speaker 5: cart and one's got a long line and one doesn't.

1607
01:23:18,240 --> 01:23:21,599
Speaker 5: It's the same fucking meat. It's the same ship. It's

1608
01:23:21,680 --> 01:23:25,880
Speaker 5: just one got a line, one don't. From the results, yeah,

1609
01:23:26,000 --> 01:23:28,880
Speaker 5: I mean really, I mean look, it's the same I

1610
01:23:28,920 --> 01:23:30,080
Speaker 5: didn't know that was a ray of fel.

1611
01:23:30,280 --> 01:23:32,479
Speaker 8: The only thing I liked about Ray though, is that

1612
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:34,720
Speaker 8: you can't scream shot on.

1613
01:23:34,880 --> 01:23:38,880
Speaker 5: The well yeah they warned you. Yeah, like I did.

1614
01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:44,400
Speaker 5: It's like, oh damn, you can't. You can't scream? So

1615
01:23:44,520 --> 01:23:46,719
Speaker 5: what so what is the rail? And I'm not kidding.

1616
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:50,000
Speaker 5: So it's a it's a spot. It's a spot that like.

1617
01:23:50,280 --> 01:23:55,680
Speaker 1: You know, I might see Demu Levado's real joining. I

01:24:01,800 --> 01:24:03,200
Speaker 5: Like oh yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

1621
01:24:03,320 --> 01:24:06,840
Speaker 1: You know, it's basically a tender where you will see

1622
01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:09,120
Speaker 1: more writers people to.

1623
01:24:09,160 --> 01:24:12,559
Speaker 5: Lose, right exactly, there you go, I got it. Yeah yeah,

1624
01:24:13,000 --> 01:24:17,880
Speaker 5: like can't keep it in my account. Still ship. Damn.

1625
01:24:18,000 --> 01:24:22,000
Speaker 5: So if you're looking for a sad immediately and then

1626
01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:25,040
Speaker 5: what really hurt me too was you know Dan Soda

1627
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:30,600
Speaker 5: very funny comedian Dan Soda. He's he's a writer on

1628
01:24:31,880 --> 01:24:36,160
Speaker 5: Billions to show Billions, and so I told them about

1629
01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:40,560
Speaker 5: Ray like a while ago, and so he wrote it

1630
01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:42,960
Speaker 5: in the show and he was like, Michael Chay's on

1631
01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:47,960
Speaker 5: it on the show. So people that watch watch it's

1632
01:24:48,000 --> 01:24:50,280
Speaker 5: like an episode where somebody says, Michael cha is on

1633
01:24:50,680 --> 01:24:54,680
Speaker 5: Riyo and I was like you, So now people are like,

1634
01:24:54,920 --> 01:24:58,120
Speaker 5: are you really on Rya? So now I'm like associated

1635
01:24:58,120 --> 01:24:59,680
Speaker 5: with ride. They need to throw me some money. So

1636
01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:04,599
Speaker 5: between that and that chick, I gave Ryan a lot

1637
01:25:04,680 --> 01:25:05,080
Speaker 5: of business.

1638
01:25:05,479 --> 01:25:08,000
Speaker 8: I'm certain that is hilarious.

1639
01:25:08,160 --> 01:25:12,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, your your ig is some of the most dangerous

1640
01:25:12,800 --> 01:25:16,280
Speaker 1: comedy they don't I've ever seen.

1641
01:25:16,439 --> 01:25:17,800
Speaker 5: I feel like you use it because you know it

1642
01:25:17,800 --> 01:25:19,280
Speaker 5: would be going in twenty four.

1643
01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:21,880
Speaker 8: Hours, sometimes less I deleted, sometimes even quicker.

1644
01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:24,600
Speaker 5: It's just fun. So you leave your comments open for

1645
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:25,599
Speaker 5: them for people.

01:25:25,479 --> 01:25:28,679
Speaker 8: To my messages. I live open and I like screen

Speaker 8: cap and I answer it.

1648
01:25:30,800 --> 01:25:33,080
Speaker 5: I like it better than Twitter because on Twitter, like

1649
01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:36,479
Speaker 5: they could take they can just at you and then

1650
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:39,439
Speaker 5: they get your whole followers to read all of that. Ship.

1651
01:25:39,760 --> 01:25:41,519
Speaker 5: At this I get to select. I get to pick

1652
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:45,040
Speaker 5: what I want people to see. You I don't want people. Yeah,

1653
01:25:46,040 --> 01:25:49,400
Speaker 5: motherfucker could like at you and then everybody that filed

1654
01:25:49,439 --> 01:25:52,040
Speaker 5: that read your ship. They see that. That's why they

1655
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:53,880
Speaker 5: say the wow, crazy shit to you, so that they

1656
01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:56,840
Speaker 5: could be attached to and then the motherfuckers they use

1657
01:25:56,920 --> 01:25:59,080
Speaker 5: your own thing. I never thought that, Michael, I don't

1658
01:25:59,160 --> 01:26:02,519
Speaker 5: like it. Yeah, speaking of dangerous comedy, where you at

1659
01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:06,320
Speaker 5: SNL when Luis c K did the monologue the child,

1660
01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:08,679
Speaker 5: how did that shit go? Like, how did that come about?

1661
01:26:09,120 --> 01:26:12,280
Speaker 5: I mean at that point it was still Louis, you know,

1662
01:26:12,360 --> 01:26:15,760
Speaker 5: it was still like everyone loved Louis, so he could

1663
01:26:16,040 --> 01:26:18,600
Speaker 5: you know. Like that's the old thing about comedy for me,

1664
01:26:18,840 --> 01:26:23,639
Speaker 5: is it's not so much what it is, it's who

1665
01:26:23,720 --> 01:26:26,360
Speaker 5: can do it, you know, kind of like the Richard

1666
01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:29,120
Speaker 5: Pryor thing, Like, it's not so much what he's saying,

1667
01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:32,280
Speaker 5: it's that he's saying it in the in that you

1668
01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:35,799
Speaker 5: know what I mean, in that format that you're like, damn,

1669
01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:38,000
Speaker 5: that's bold, you know. So like for Louie to come

1670
01:26:38,080 --> 01:26:41,800
Speaker 5: on National TV and say some shit like fucking kids

1671
01:26:41,920 --> 01:26:45,080
Speaker 5: must be good, You're like, what you know what I mean?

1672
01:26:45,160 --> 01:26:47,120
Speaker 5: Like on network and this is the first thing we're

1673
01:26:47,160 --> 01:26:49,240
Speaker 5: seeing this this is supposed to make us watch the

1674
01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:52,120
Speaker 5: rest of the show. It's just bold. It's just like

1675
01:26:52,280 --> 01:26:54,439
Speaker 5: fun to watch just on that. You know, like you

1676
01:26:54,640 --> 01:26:56,760
Speaker 5: that you're even willing to try that. But that's one

1677
01:26:56,760 --> 01:26:59,120
Speaker 5: of the dope things about our show is that that's

1678
01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:02,280
Speaker 5: where you can do that. That's always got like a

1679
01:27:02,360 --> 01:27:04,040
Speaker 5: writer's room that came up with that stuff. No, that

1680
01:27:04,200 --> 01:27:07,800
Speaker 5: was him, that was him, that was Louis. Stand ups

1681
01:27:07,920 --> 01:27:12,240
Speaker 5: usually will work out their monologue the whole week, okay,

1682
01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:15,320
Speaker 5: and do they have to run it by y'all before

1683
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,479
Speaker 5: or I see it? The first time we see it

1684
01:27:17,640 --> 01:27:20,400
Speaker 5: is usually a dress rehearsal. They don't even do it

1685
01:27:20,439 --> 01:27:22,400
Speaker 5: through run through. They'll do it at dresshearsal with a

1686
01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:27,240
Speaker 5: live audience because telling jokes to nobody is like very

1687
01:27:27,360 --> 01:27:29,640
Speaker 5: demoralizing because you have to hear the last you know

1688
01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:30,000
Speaker 5: what I mean.

1689
01:27:30,120 --> 01:27:32,360
Speaker 1: It's just like, Yeah, they do that a lot. At

1690
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:35,479
Speaker 1: thirty Rocks. Someone has to go through their routine to

1691
01:27:35,600 --> 01:27:39,519
Speaker 1: an empty audience. Yeah, that's rough, that's right.

1692
01:27:39,680 --> 01:27:41,719
Speaker 5: I remember when I worked at The Daily Show, John

1693
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:43,880
Speaker 5: would go through run through and he would do all

1694
01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:49,759
Speaker 5: of the jokes to just like us. Yeah, like maybe

1695
01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:53,400
Speaker 5: twenty of us, maybe fifteen, fifteen, twenty of us, and

1696
01:27:54,360 --> 01:27:56,920
Speaker 5: that's how he would guess, would then make decisions based

1697
01:27:56,960 --> 01:27:59,559
Speaker 5: on We would all huddle up right after and he'd

1698
01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:01,400
Speaker 5: be like, move this, do this, do this, do this,

1699
01:28:01,880 --> 01:28:04,439
Speaker 5: and then we have one more meeting with a big

1700
01:28:04,520 --> 01:28:08,840
Speaker 5: ass whiteboard. And that was the show. John was a

1701
01:28:08,920 --> 01:28:11,519
Speaker 5: motherfucker Like I never seen anybody that kind of knew

1702
01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:15,080
Speaker 5: the audience reaction before the audience knew it better than John.

1703
01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:16,080
Speaker 8: He was so good at that.

1704
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,280
Speaker 6: You bounced back and forth because yeah, I went.

1705
01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:22,519
Speaker 5: To I went to the Daily Show. I didn't have

1706
01:28:22,680 --> 01:28:24,160
Speaker 5: It was just pretty much I didn't have a summer.

1707
01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,280
Speaker 5: As soon as that Snow wrapped, I went straight to

1708
01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:28,519
Speaker 5: the Daily Show, And as soon as the Daily Show

1709
01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:30,240
Speaker 5: and Snow came back, I went.

1710
01:28:30,160 --> 01:28:33,400
Speaker 6: Straight back to Was that John's last season or one

1711
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:34,519
Speaker 6: was John's last season?

1712
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:38,120
Speaker 5: I was like maybe three four months before he left.

1713
01:28:38,800 --> 01:28:42,080
Speaker 5: I didn't know he was leaving though, I had no

1714
01:28:42,200 --> 01:28:45,160
Speaker 5: idea that's both John's right or no no, no, no

1715
01:28:45,320 --> 01:28:48,120
Speaker 5: no no. When I remember, like one of my last weeks,

1716
01:28:48,160 --> 01:28:51,000
Speaker 5: he was given Trevor the tour to come in as

1717
01:28:51,080 --> 01:28:58,000
Speaker 5: like a correspondent. He was like a special court. He

1718
01:28:58,120 --> 01:28:59,960
Speaker 5: was like kind of doing what Wilmore was going to

1719
01:29:00,160 --> 01:29:03,040
Speaker 5: be doing. Ah, can you remember what Will Moore used

1720
01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:05,840
Speaker 5: to do? Yeah, that's what he like. That was kind

1721
01:29:05,880 --> 01:29:07,400
Speaker 5: of how it was presented, like, oh, yeah, well, you know,

1722
01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:11,880
Speaker 5: Trevor's gonna you know, but he knew otherwise. I don't know.

1723
01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:12,800
Speaker 8: I don't think he did.

1724
01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:15,000
Speaker 5: I don't think he I don't think he did because

1725
01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:17,640
Speaker 5: I think for a while they wasn't sure who's gonna be,

1726
01:29:18,520 --> 01:29:21,360
Speaker 5: and then they decided before they decided trup. That's what

1727
01:29:21,520 --> 01:29:23,880
Speaker 5: I know. I never really talked to Trevor about it.

1728
01:29:24,360 --> 01:29:26,120
Speaker 6: TV funny at everybody else's job.

1729
01:29:30,920 --> 01:29:34,000
Speaker 1: Are you looking forward to uh, season forty or is

1730
01:29:34,040 --> 01:29:35,800
Speaker 1: it forty two? Now this is forty this will be

1731
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:38,439
Speaker 1: forty four? Jesus christ is Obama?

1732
01:29:38,560 --> 01:29:38,760
Speaker 8: Yeah?

1733
01:29:39,479 --> 01:29:43,080
Speaker 5: Wow, you're right, dude, are you? Are you looking forward

1734
01:29:43,120 --> 01:29:46,240
Speaker 5: to it? Or is it like I am Obama? Ye?

1735
01:29:46,280 --> 01:29:46,759
Speaker 6: Or Michael?

1736
01:29:47,000 --> 01:29:52,280
Speaker 5: I think that I think that this one's gonna be

1737
01:29:52,360 --> 01:29:55,479
Speaker 5: a fun one, honestly, because I feel like everybody's kind

1738
01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:58,880
Speaker 5: of hawking out. I think like Kate McKinnon's is a superstar,

1739
01:29:59,120 --> 01:30:03,160
Speaker 5: Leslie's you know, star, and I think I think like

1740
01:30:03,240 --> 01:30:05,240
Speaker 5: this is going to be like a fun season where

1741
01:30:05,240 --> 01:30:08,360
Speaker 5: everybody kind of starts to I think, like, it's not

1742
01:30:08,520 --> 01:30:12,800
Speaker 5: as Trump heavy anymore. How do you do that? I

1743
01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:16,320
Speaker 5: don't think it will be ill, do you? Yeah? Do you?

1744
01:30:17,400 --> 01:30:21,840
Speaker 1: I mean not that if you expect impeachment action or whatever. Midterms.

1745
01:30:23,160 --> 01:30:26,800
Speaker 1: I have faith that something will happen in the midterms.

1746
01:30:27,479 --> 01:30:32,280
Speaker 1: You know, something will happen.

1747
01:30:32,120 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 5: Either more collusion or the House will I don't think

1748
01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,479
Speaker 5: they got him. You don't think they got him yet.

1749
01:30:38,479 --> 01:30:39,479
Speaker 8: I don't think they got him.

1750
01:30:39,560 --> 01:30:42,880
Speaker 5: But it's almost weird because it's like you when you're

1751
01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:45,000
Speaker 5: about like to U see two dudes about the fight,

1752
01:30:45,080 --> 01:30:46,960
Speaker 5: and they say, like, the dude that's taking off the

1753
01:30:47,000 --> 01:30:49,880
Speaker 5: most clothes don't want to fight. Yeah, I think that's

1754
01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:51,479
Speaker 5: what my little I don't think they I don't think

1755
01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:52,519
Speaker 5: they want I don't think they got it.

1756
01:30:54,160 --> 01:30:55,320
Speaker 8: Well, I don't.

1757
01:30:55,439 --> 01:30:57,360
Speaker 5: I don't know. It's kind of weird. I'm in the

1758
01:30:57,439 --> 01:31:00,280
Speaker 5: minority with that. I'll say that, but I just think

1759
01:31:00,320 --> 01:31:01,840
Speaker 5: they would have did it by that well. As a

1760
01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:05,120
Speaker 5: black person, I gotta have faith in something. Man impossible.

1761
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:08,280
Speaker 5: How long? But how long isay? I'm not the biggest history,

1762
01:31:08,320 --> 01:31:09,559
Speaker 5: but how long did Watergate take?

1763
01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:14,519
Speaker 1: How long was that not this long nine months because

1764
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:17,360
Speaker 1: basically Democrats have the house, Like if we just get

1765
01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:20,840
Speaker 1: the house, this nightmare couldn't you know, But we don't

1766
01:31:20,920 --> 01:31:22,040
Speaker 1: have the house we need.

1767
01:31:23,160 --> 01:31:23,800
Speaker 5: We need five.

1768
01:31:24,280 --> 01:31:29,439
Speaker 1: So but it's I'm just saying that either way, like

1769
01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:34,000
Speaker 1: if if he continues, that's technically.

1770
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:41,120
Speaker 5: Good for you per se if Trump continues, I mean,

1771
01:31:41,160 --> 01:31:47,200
Speaker 5: because I feel this is like SNL what the cultural No,

1772
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:50,479
Speaker 5: we could say that no one.

1773
01:31:50,720 --> 01:31:53,160
Speaker 1: But the thing is is that you guys are more

1774
01:31:53,680 --> 01:31:57,160
Speaker 1: you guys are more digestible. Like for me, we can

1775
01:31:57,280 --> 01:32:01,320
Speaker 1: Update is actually a news program now because that scares me.

1776
01:32:01,640 --> 01:32:06,080
Speaker 5: I know, I know, I watched real News seriously, it's yeah,

1777
01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:09,519
Speaker 5: it's no, No, nomics are more the way I present

1778
01:32:09,640 --> 01:32:12,000
Speaker 5: it is in a way that's more digestible. I mean,

1779
01:32:12,040 --> 01:32:12,519
Speaker 5: you don't.

1780
01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:16,519
Speaker 1: Realize that every every diatribe that you do on weekend

1781
01:32:16,600 --> 01:32:19,679
Speaker 1: up date winds up being a heavily passed around.

1782
01:32:20,360 --> 01:32:24,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I understand it on on that on that front,

1783
01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:27,120
Speaker 5: but I'm saying there's stuff I feel like we could

1784
01:32:27,240 --> 01:32:30,360
Speaker 5: do on week and Update that isn't necessarily Trump. That's

1785
01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:32,479
Speaker 5: way more important. Like I watched like the real Estate

1786
01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:35,599
Speaker 5: that Oliver has. I watched the real Estate that even

1787
01:32:35,640 --> 01:32:37,840
Speaker 5: Trevor has, but I mean they do. He does this

1788
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:39,599
Speaker 5: show every day, so it's a little bit less fair

1789
01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:42,400
Speaker 5: to say to compare it. But you know, like there's

1790
01:32:42,600 --> 01:32:45,600
Speaker 5: there's a lot of important ship that we could be

1791
01:32:45,680 --> 01:32:51,160
Speaker 5: talking about that this motherfucker right, and it's like, really,

1792
01:32:51,200 --> 01:32:53,720
Speaker 5: I got to talk about his wife now, God, talk

1793
01:32:53,760 --> 01:32:56,720
Speaker 5: about it.

1794
01:32:56,880 --> 01:32:59,519
Speaker 1: I don't think it's even Trump specific, but I feel

1795
01:32:59,640 --> 01:33:03,960
Speaker 1: that the domino effect of like we definitely would not

1796
01:33:04,280 --> 01:33:08,000
Speaker 1: have me too if it weren't for the Trump administration

1797
01:33:08,720 --> 01:33:10,920
Speaker 1: that I feel. I don't feel there's a lot of things. Yes,

1798
01:33:11,080 --> 01:33:12,280
Speaker 1: I agree with you, I.

1799
01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:15,000
Speaker 5: Don't think so. I mean, because it would have happened

1800
01:33:15,160 --> 01:33:16,120
Speaker 5: during the Obama.

1801
01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:19,519
Speaker 7: Because remember what happened on inauguration Day, a women's march.

1802
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:24,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, against everything, like whatever he stands for.

1803
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:27,720
Speaker 1: Then it's like we're gonna sort of seek it out

1804
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:30,320
Speaker 1: and everyone else other than him and make them pay for.

1805
01:33:31,160 --> 01:33:33,000
Speaker 5: What he represents. We can't get him out of the paint.

1806
01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:35,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, So even if you don't have to talk about

1807
01:33:35,280 --> 01:33:38,120
Speaker 1: him specifically, I mean, we're you're gonna talk about immigration,

1808
01:33:38,240 --> 01:33:39,160
Speaker 1: which is a result of him.

1809
01:33:39,200 --> 01:33:40,280
Speaker 5: You're going to talk about me too.

1810
01:33:40,439 --> 01:33:43,639
Speaker 7: He's right, everything even the banks and getting the access

1811
01:33:43,680 --> 01:33:44,320
Speaker 7: to our Facebook.

1812
01:33:44,360 --> 01:33:44,840
Speaker 5: That's his fault.

1813
01:33:44,840 --> 01:33:45,559
Speaker 6: I'm gonna blame him.

1814
01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:48,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, you're gonna have Zuckerberg jokes. And the way the

1815
01:33:48,479 --> 01:33:52,640
Speaker 5: Way Update the Way Update is delegated. It's you know,

1816
01:33:52,760 --> 01:33:57,040
Speaker 5: it's about four minutes and then a three minute future

1817
01:33:57,680 --> 01:34:00,080
Speaker 5: and then you know what I mean, three minutes and

1818
01:34:00,160 --> 01:34:04,080
Speaker 5: then maybe a three minute feature and you know, so

1819
01:34:04,160 --> 01:34:07,120
Speaker 5: it's like the real estate that we have to be

1820
01:34:07,240 --> 01:34:09,040
Speaker 5: able to talk about, and then it's between two people,

1821
01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:12,120
Speaker 5: so you cut that. It's like it's almost like like income.

1822
01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:14,479
Speaker 5: You gotta cut that in happening, you know what I mean.

1823
01:34:14,960 --> 01:34:17,479
Speaker 5: So you get two minutes? Are you pretty much? I

1824
01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:19,600
Speaker 5: pretty much get four minutes to talk about everything I

1825
01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:22,560
Speaker 5: want to talk about in the week, and some of

1826
01:34:22,640 --> 01:34:25,760
Speaker 5: it has to be trumped. So it's like, how do

1827
01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:30,519
Speaker 5: you not talk? Like if didn't? Motherfucker is tweeting Saturday morning,

1828
01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:33,800
Speaker 5: what's Saturday afternoon? Which happens. I can almost set my

1829
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:38,800
Speaker 5: clock to this. Motherfucker. He tweets Saturday at like eight

1830
01:34:38,840 --> 01:34:42,080
Speaker 5: in the morning, between anywhere between seven and eleven in

1831
01:34:42,120 --> 01:34:45,040
Speaker 5: the morning. I gotta look at it. We gotta relook

1832
01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:47,040
Speaker 5: at all of the jokes that we have figure out,

1833
01:34:47,040 --> 01:34:50,040
Speaker 5: all right, well, what development is this more important than this?

1834
01:34:50,200 --> 01:34:51,519
Speaker 5: What do we have to so like we have all

1835
01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:54,240
Speaker 5: our jokes on the table, we be we gotta lift ship,

1836
01:34:54,560 --> 01:34:56,879
Speaker 5: all right, this is this is not even important anymore.

1837
01:34:56,920 --> 01:34:59,320
Speaker 5: This feels weird to say this. By the time, you know,

1838
01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:03,559
Speaker 5: at midnight, this is gonna be old news. So it's

1839
01:35:03,680 --> 01:35:08,240
Speaker 5: just exhausting. But not even so much update specific. I

1840
01:35:08,280 --> 01:35:12,360
Speaker 5: just mean show wise. I think that people have seen

1841
01:35:12,479 --> 01:35:16,599
Speaker 5: the impression. People have seen us go through, they've seen

1842
01:35:16,680 --> 01:35:19,200
Speaker 5: us color it. There's not so I feel like this

1843
01:35:19,400 --> 01:35:21,560
Speaker 5: is gonna be a year where we maybe take it

1844
01:35:21,640 --> 01:35:24,559
Speaker 5: to the next level of just creatively of different things

1845
01:35:25,000 --> 01:35:28,400
Speaker 5: that's possible with our cast, and not let this motherfucker dominate.

1846
01:35:28,760 --> 01:35:30,880
Speaker 6: Maybe you take the lead and the news will follow.

1847
01:35:31,120 --> 01:35:33,120
Speaker 5: That's what I mean. You know, it's not just me.

1848
01:35:33,280 --> 01:35:33,960
Speaker 8: It's not up to me.

1849
01:35:34,040 --> 01:35:36,120
Speaker 7: It's also but I mean as a show, like because

1850
01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:37,679
Speaker 7: the news is doing the same thing that you're saying

1851
01:35:37,760 --> 01:35:40,200
Speaker 7: y'all trying to stay away from, like MSNBC, CNN, it's

1852
01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:41,559
Speaker 7: all the same all the time.

1853
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:44,400
Speaker 5: His name so yeah, and he knows and he's he's

1854
01:35:44,439 --> 01:35:46,559
Speaker 5: playing it like an instrument. Man. He knows he knows

1855
01:35:46,640 --> 01:35:49,840
Speaker 5: exactly when to say some crazy shit about Lebron, you

1856
01:35:49,920 --> 01:35:53,400
Speaker 5: know exactly. Yeah, he knows when, he knows when to dominate.

1857
01:35:53,760 --> 01:35:58,240
Speaker 5: Motherfucker knows how to control the news source. And everybody's

1858
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:01,240
Speaker 5: guilty because we all, I think it's interesting. We all

1859
01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:03,240
Speaker 5: want the clout, you know, like we all want to

1860
01:36:03,320 --> 01:36:06,439
Speaker 5: have the witty, perfect thing to say about what he's saying.

1861
01:36:07,000 --> 01:36:11,679
Speaker 5: And it's just like, dude, you don't realize you're playing along.

1862
01:36:11,840 --> 01:36:14,240
Speaker 5: You know, you're really just you don't get it.

1863
01:36:14,600 --> 01:36:17,000
Speaker 7: The Hollywood star fame people, they already took the lead.

1864
01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:18,600
Speaker 7: They said, just take it away, so it won't be

1865
01:36:18,680 --> 01:36:22,040
Speaker 7: no debate, no argument has gone good.

1866
01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:28,480
Speaker 5: Wait, so, speaking of distraction, in wrapping up this episode.

Speaker 5: You're welcome. I have to say, uh, dude, you have

1870
01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:46,400
Speaker 5: to make more Willie. You don't know.

1871
01:36:50,040 --> 01:36:55,840
Speaker 1: Look, I have three YouTube mixes on my private YouTube page.

1872
01:36:56,680 --> 01:37:01,479
Speaker 5: One's all Michael, one's all Soul Trained. The other is Willie.

1873
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:03,200
Speaker 5: Who was Willy? Who Willy?

1874
01:37:03,800 --> 01:37:05,080
Speaker 6: Is this this?

1875
01:37:06,000 --> 01:37:08,760
Speaker 5: I'm probably no, No, it's it's funny ship.

1876
01:37:09,280 --> 01:37:13,479
Speaker 1: It's it's a character that Michael's written written for Keenan Thompson.

1877
01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:20,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, how he's the most optimistic. He's the most optimistic guy.

1878
01:37:20,960 --> 01:37:23,240
Speaker 5: I know, he's my neighbor. He always sees the bright

1879
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:26,400
Speaker 5: side of everything. But he just has the worst life ever.

1880
01:37:26,560 --> 01:37:33,400
Speaker 5: So it's really sad he's been involved with. It's really familiar,

1881
01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:35,640
Speaker 5: like you know, he is the worst luck on the

1882
01:37:35,760 --> 01:37:39,000
Speaker 5: worst luck on nerve and uh, he's always trying to

1883
01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:42,360
Speaker 5: cheer me up and he just keeps using an example. Wait, Will,

1884
01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:46,240
Speaker 5: he's based on a real person. No, Will, he's not

1885
01:37:46,320 --> 01:37:48,760
Speaker 5: based on a real person. I think I had an

1886
01:37:48,840 --> 01:37:51,800
Speaker 5: uncle Delmore who was sort of like that.

1887
01:37:52,880 --> 01:37:56,840
Speaker 8: And this is this is a week enough. He's an

1888
01:37:56,920 --> 01:37:57,679
Speaker 8: updated character.

1889
01:37:57,680 --> 01:38:01,000
Speaker 5: The punchline is always like he'll say, hey, it's like

1890
01:38:01,080 --> 01:38:02,880
Speaker 5: they always say, and he'll come up with an idiom,

1891
01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:07,600
Speaker 5: but he doesn't realize. He doesn't realized that. You know.

1892
01:38:07,840 --> 01:38:10,040
Speaker 5: It's like they always say, hey, Willy, what did I

1893
01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:16,280
Speaker 5: tell you about coming in I'm your mama? That I

1894
01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:19,040
Speaker 5: like the y'all did it was what the weekend up there?

1895
01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:21,600
Speaker 5: The one it was only one that got cut that

1896
01:38:21,760 --> 01:38:26,040
Speaker 5: was like way too rough? Will Willie where he goes? Uh,

1897
01:38:26,600 --> 01:38:29,880
Speaker 5: It's like I told Martin Luther king you can smoke outside.

1898
01:38:36,560 --> 01:38:41,720
Speaker 5: They like you can't do that. The line where where

1899
01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:44,160
Speaker 5: is the line? I mean, why is that? And that

1900
01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:48,200
Speaker 5: one oh Man, we for Willy Well, I don't know Willy.

1901
01:38:48,360 --> 01:38:51,040
Speaker 5: We had him say some wow ship where they're afraid

1902
01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:54,120
Speaker 5: of like kickback from black. I think Keenan was like,

1903
01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:57,800
Speaker 5: I don't want to do that, but that's Willing. He

1904
01:38:57,840 --> 01:39:02,960
Speaker 5: can smoke on the boundary about any that's That was

1905
01:39:03,080 --> 01:39:05,680
Speaker 5: like the craziest one where we were like, I don't know.

1906
01:39:05,960 --> 01:39:11,640
Speaker 5: We had him uh a graduation one where he was like,

1907
01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,519
Speaker 5: it's like my class told me when I left the school,

1908
01:39:14,560 --> 01:39:16,080
Speaker 5: you locked us in with the shooter wheel.

1909
01:39:19,800 --> 01:39:22,960
Speaker 8: It's just like, yeah, yeah, every time I do it,

1910
01:39:23,960 --> 01:39:24,799
Speaker 8: y'all will do anymore?

1911
01:39:25,160 --> 01:39:27,960
Speaker 5: What up with that? Is that? The thing about what

1912
01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:33,679
Speaker 5: with that is Jason he's not there anymore and Fred's

1913
01:39:33,760 --> 01:39:36,200
Speaker 5: not there, so it's hard to do and Bill Bill Hayter,

Speaker 8: Exactly.

1997
01:44:28,160 --> 01:44:29,800
Speaker 7: You said you more of a music person than you

1998
01:44:29,880 --> 01:44:31,920
Speaker 7: are watching me. Of course you're watch I love music well,

1999
01:44:31,960 --> 01:44:34,240
Speaker 7: because music I'm in, I'm in. I don't know how

2000
01:44:34,280 --> 01:44:36,920
Speaker 7: it works. Well, comedy I know how it works, so

2001
01:44:36,960 --> 01:44:37,920
Speaker 7: it's not that interesting.

2002
01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:38,519
Speaker 5: It's the same.

2003
01:44:38,760 --> 01:44:41,280

01:44:48,800 --> 01:44:51,200
Speaker 5: Like what's your era? And that's like, are you like

2008

Speaker 5: Man Midnight, your Neptune Switsch beat era?

2009
01:44:56,920 --> 01:44:59,599
Speaker 8: That's my era technically, but I like the era right

2010
01:44:59,640 --> 01:45:02,160
Speaker 8: before that. I like the ninety five ninety six.

2011

Speaker 1: Randomly, what's up of you guys going to random bars

2021
01:45:37,800 --> 01:45:40,720
Speaker 1: because nobody cares about you and an Irish bar, no

2022
01:45:40,840 --> 01:45:42,760
Speaker 1: one gives a fuck about who you are?

2023
01:45:44,720 --> 01:45:47,519
Speaker 5: Fine, I'm telling you, they don't bother you. It's anything

2024
01:45:47,640 --> 01:45:51,080
Speaker 5: collegy or anything young and hip. You gotta wear a

2025
01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:54,360
Speaker 5: fucking pub Oh they don't. They could care less. They're

2026
01:45:54,400 --> 01:45:57,400
Speaker 5: playing music, they know who you are, and they're just like,

2027
01:45:58,160 --> 01:46:00,920
Speaker 5: so what, and you're fine. I love it. That's the

2028
01:46:01,040 --> 01:46:05,639
Speaker 5: one aspect of thirty rock folklore that I'm kind I'm

2029
01:46:05,680 --> 01:46:07,599
Speaker 5: not mad I missed out on it because I don't

2030
01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 5: want a habit or anything, but I'm looking for.

2031
01:46:12,160 --> 01:46:14,600
Speaker 8: Like you do it every day. You can't develop a

2032
01:46:14,680 --> 01:46:15,720
Speaker 8: habit because.

2033
01:46:18,400 --> 01:46:21,240
Speaker 5: Able to navigate like they're supposed to be, like Jim Belushi,

2034
01:46:21,600 --> 01:46:25,519
Speaker 5: you know, messing around with Jane Curtin in the hallway

2035
01:46:25,640 --> 01:46:27,479
Speaker 5: with heroin and you know.

2036
01:46:28,240 --> 01:46:32,000
Speaker 1: Like I'm looking for like the rock stars. Yeah, like

2037
01:46:32,560 --> 01:46:35,519
Speaker 1: that era that she can't exist Normal everyone's at.

2038
01:46:35,479 --> 01:46:40,559
Speaker 5: Whole Foods and you know, yeah, everybody's giant salad Amazon.

2039
01:46:41,120 --> 01:46:44,599
Speaker 9: Steve is like Steve is throwing me under the bus

2040
01:46:44,680 --> 01:46:47,360
Speaker 9: again just to end the episode in a way that

2041
01:46:47,439 --> 01:46:49,000
Speaker 9: you're going to feel happy about yourself.

2042
01:46:49,640 --> 01:46:51,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, Steve, I am, I have a.

2043
01:46:51,439 --> 01:46:57,519
Speaker 5: Question for you. Okay, just circling back here to weekend update. Okay,

2044
01:46:57,560 --> 01:47:04,639
Speaker 5: I mentioned Seth as your ghost. Who's your all time favorite? Normal? Norm?

2045
01:47:04,880 --> 01:47:09,479
Speaker 5: I love Norm only because Norm knew it was funny,

2046
01:47:09,640 --> 01:47:13,839
Speaker 5: even if the audience did. And I love that freedom

2047
01:47:13,880 --> 01:47:18,040
Speaker 5: that Norm. And like he he would tell a joke

2048
01:47:18,320 --> 01:47:21,400
Speaker 5: like straight down the back. He wouldn't budge and it

2049
01:47:21,479 --> 01:47:25,880
Speaker 5: would get almost like worse than nothing. He was, but

2050
01:47:26,080 --> 01:47:29,720
Speaker 5: he didn't care. Like at home watching it, it was hysterical.

2051
01:47:29,840 --> 01:47:31,479
Speaker 5: That's another thing that we had to that you have

2052
01:47:31,560 --> 01:47:33,719
Speaker 5: to learn at the show is you're playing the studio

2053
01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:36,679
Speaker 5: and then you're playing the camera as well. It cuts through,

2054
01:47:37,040 --> 01:47:39,519
Speaker 5: something could kill in the room and nobody at homes

2055
01:47:39,600 --> 01:47:42,639
Speaker 5: laughing like it's a different it's a it's a weird

2056
01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:44,559
Speaker 5: kind of dynamic that you have just learning doing norm

2057
01:47:44,720 --> 01:47:46,479
Speaker 5: was kind of the master of it. He knew what

2058
01:47:46,680 --> 01:47:49,640
Speaker 5: was funny, even if the audience. He wouldn't even do

2059
01:47:49,840 --> 01:47:52,439
Speaker 5: a dress rehearsal something. He wouldn't do a run through jokes.

2060
01:47:52,439 --> 01:47:54,320
Speaker 5: He wouldn't run through his jokes to let you know,

2061
01:47:54,520 --> 01:47:56,680
Speaker 5: like what you he couldn't say. He would just do

2062
01:47:56,800 --> 01:47:59,200
Speaker 5: it for the audience, kind of the way stand ups do.

2063
01:48:00,000 --> 01:48:00,880
Speaker 5: That's pretty awesome.

2064
01:48:01,040 --> 01:48:06,880
Speaker 1: It's a small suggestion. One of the things about watching

2065
01:48:06,960 --> 01:48:13,040
Speaker 1: the show in the studio is the volume is so low, yes.

2066
01:48:13,760 --> 01:48:16,439
Speaker 5: Because we're not we're miked for the camera, we're not

2067
01:48:17,240 --> 01:48:18,720
Speaker 5: for the crowd, right, yeah, And.

2068
01:48:18,720 --> 01:48:21,360
Speaker 1: It's almost like you're like hearing your natural voice, but

2069
01:48:21,479 --> 01:48:25,240
Speaker 1: from like one hundred and twenty feet away, you know.

2070
01:48:25,479 --> 01:48:26,080
Speaker 5: And that's the thing.

2071
01:48:26,200 --> 01:48:29,840
Speaker 1: Like some shows that I've seen in person, I'll be like,

2072
01:48:30,439 --> 01:48:32,880
Speaker 1: I'm all right, and then I'll go home and watch

2073
01:48:32,960 --> 01:48:37,400
Speaker 1: it the next night or yeah, DVR or whatever. I'm like, Yo,

2074
01:48:37,560 --> 01:48:41,519
Speaker 1: that was hilarious, And I'm realizing that shows SNL is

2075
01:48:41,560 --> 01:48:44,160
Speaker 1: definitely more hilarious on television than it is.

2076
01:48:44,640 --> 01:48:47,080
Speaker 7: Plus in the audience, you're sitting really far back, so

2077
01:48:47,200 --> 01:48:49,640
Speaker 7: you can't see your face, your facial expressions and when

2078
01:48:49,680 --> 01:48:50,320
Speaker 7: we can update.

2079
01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:53,800
Speaker 6: Sometimes I didn't know it only went once. I'm sorry,

2080
01:48:53,840 --> 01:48:54,040
Speaker 6: I'm not.

2081
01:48:54,760 --> 01:48:56,960
Speaker 5: They have TVs where you can kind of see a

2082
01:48:57,000 --> 01:48:59,479
Speaker 5: little bit better butt, but it is. It's true though,

2083
01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:02,479
Speaker 5: sometimes even if you have the monitor, sometimes you're just

2084
01:49:02,560 --> 01:49:05,040
Speaker 5: trying to watch it happen live and you can't really

2085
01:49:05,080 --> 01:49:05,439
Speaker 5: get there.

2086
01:49:05,680 --> 01:49:07,719
Speaker 6: If I watched the monitor sitting down.

2087
01:49:08,800 --> 01:49:11,400
Speaker 8: Yeah that's true. But yeah, good point the whole I.

2088
01:49:11,400 --> 01:49:13,759
Speaker 7: Feel the concert. Sometimes if you that far away, your

2089
01:49:13,800 --> 01:49:15,120
Speaker 7: eye is always on a monitor.

2090
01:49:15,240 --> 01:49:18,760
Speaker 5: What am I doing here about stories? That's why don't

2091
01:49:18,800 --> 01:49:20,320
Speaker 5: like going to football games. I go to the football

2092
01:49:20,320 --> 01:49:22,760
Speaker 5: game and I'm the Dumbo tron. I'm like, I could

2093
01:49:22,840 --> 01:49:24,960
Speaker 5: just be comfortable. I don't have to be next to

2094
01:49:25,040 --> 01:49:25,559
Speaker 5: two races.

2095
01:49:27,680 --> 01:49:30,000
Speaker 8: I really done. I could do this at home now.

2096
01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:33,120
Speaker 1: The fun, or at least for you, like the fun

2097
01:49:33,200 --> 01:49:37,040
Speaker 1: of SNL, is just the experience of like the first

2098
01:49:37,200 --> 01:49:40,200
Speaker 1: the first episode, in the last episode is usually when

2099
01:49:40,240 --> 01:49:44,439
Speaker 1: the Benders part happens, like it's dress versal. What a

2100
01:49:44,600 --> 01:49:49,400
Speaker 1: thirty ten thirty, and then the show is eleven thirty

2101
01:49:49,439 --> 01:49:52,200
Speaker 1: to one, and usually the sad rejects go up to

2102
01:49:52,240 --> 01:49:57,000
Speaker 1: seventeen and get sloshed until about one thirty and then

2103
01:49:57,120 --> 01:50:00,679
Speaker 1: the after after parties from one thirty t about three

2104
01:50:00,840 --> 01:50:01,679
Speaker 1: thirty or four.

2105
01:50:02,160 --> 01:50:05,840
Speaker 5: That's another thing now that the Lonely Island is left,

2106
01:50:06,880 --> 01:50:10,800
Speaker 5: like there's no one. They came and disrupted the after

2107
01:50:10,920 --> 01:50:11,559
Speaker 5: party system.

2108
01:50:12,200 --> 01:50:14,680
Speaker 1: Whereas they started throwing their own after parties, and then

2109
01:50:14,720 --> 01:50:21,320
Speaker 1: there was like the cool kids'll call it, that's the

2110
01:50:21,439 --> 01:50:25,160
Speaker 1: rap group name they you know, like when you see

2111
01:50:25,240 --> 01:50:28,400
Speaker 1: like SNL comedy video diox, Like.

2112
01:50:28,479 --> 01:50:30,439
Speaker 5: They really brought the viral video.

2113
01:50:32,000 --> 01:50:35,679
Speaker 1: Damn, near invented it because Sunday was the viral video,

2114
01:50:35,800 --> 01:50:37,320
Speaker 1: so they invented the viral video.

2115
01:50:38,080 --> 01:50:40,639
Speaker 5: So but they would have their own cool.

2116
01:50:40,479 --> 01:50:44,280
Speaker 1: Kids parties versus the teamsters and the other people that

2117
01:50:44,400 --> 01:50:45,599
Speaker 1: can't play their games.

2118
01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:48,280
Speaker 5: But then when they left, no one was feeling that void,

2119
01:50:48,560 --> 01:50:54,400
Speaker 5: like you should be should it just be one party?

2120
01:50:54,720 --> 01:50:56,920
Speaker 5: I feel like you and Pete, we need to throw

01:50:56,960 --> 01:51:00,639

Speaker 5: we hung out, but I just don't I don't go.

2124
01:51:06,080 --> 01:51:10,320
Speaker 5: I don't even go to the parties. You have responsibilities.

2125
01:51:10,360 --> 01:51:13,080
Speaker 5: And it's not even so much that like you, it's

2126
01:51:14,120 --> 01:51:19,160

01:51:27,240 --> 01:51:28,920
Speaker 5: It's like you've done this and you've been waiting for

2132
01:51:28,960 --> 01:51:30,400
Speaker 5: so long for this ship to be over, and then
