Speaker 1: up to me and she says, Hi, Steve Byrne.
Speaker 2: I go, yeah, this is your child.
Speaker 1: She goes, I want to show you something. I go okay.
Speaker 1: So she pulls out a license and shows she goes
Speaker 1: look at the address and it was three Hidden Pond Drive.
Speaker 1: It's where I lived up, so it was pretty wild.
Speaker 1: She's like, you should stop buy some time, Mike. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And she was there with her her kids or whatever,
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, that's so awesome.
Speaker 3: It was so cool.
Speaker 1: I've never showed up, but I did drive past it
Speaker 1: because I'd rented a car and I drove past, and
Speaker 1: just like when I was growing up, they had a
Speaker 1: street hockey net right at the top.
Speaker 2: And I was like, yeah, that's really coo. I can't
Speaker 2: leading down and play on your old street.
Speaker 1: Did you have you ever gone back to your childhood?
Speaker 2: My house has got knocked down and they put houses
Speaker 2: on the lot. So they built seven houses where my
Speaker 2: house was like these little like townhouse condo things right
Speaker 2: right on the corner a lot of mine. So we
Speaker 2: were the last people that were there. But I still
Speaker 2: think there's dogs buried in the back. So we had
Speaker 2: a dog. We buried one of our dogs in the back,
Speaker 2: and there was like they left the yard, which was
Speaker 2: very odd. And you still see the cross that we made.
Speaker 2: I swear to God that was up there. Not now
Speaker 2: this is like after I.
Speaker 3: Want to see it.
Speaker 2: So we're talking, Yeah, nineteen my father died five, so
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety six this is. And so the contractor built
Speaker 2: knocked down the houses. Contracting knocked down the house and
Speaker 2: then we I went there like ninety eight or whatever
Speaker 2: when they were just like finishing up, and they still
Speaker 2: had to like the bushes up with the cross like
Speaker 2: in the back, and I was like did they not?
Speaker 1: Wow? Really?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: So but but it's probably gone now. Yeah, no one
Speaker 2: lived in my lived in that house.
Speaker 1: Did you pay your respects?
Speaker 3: I did?
Speaker 1: You did?
Speaker 3: I knelt down? Yeah?
Speaker 2: I did. So my my my grandfather bought the house
Speaker 2: on a whim.
Speaker 3: He drove by it.
Speaker 2: This is he had tomato money, my grandfather, he had
Speaker 2: the models, Tomatos Brothers Incorporated money. This.
Speaker 1: Wait, didn't he he invented tomato sorting machine.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and he had that tomato money.
Speaker 3: So but it was all cash. She was Sicilian, you know,
Speaker 3: so uh so it.
Speaker 2: Was he was running the show there and he walked
Speaker 2: into My grandmother grew up in Camden, New Jersey, in
Speaker 2: a big yard, and this house reminded her of that, right,
Speaker 2: and she didn't even see the inside. She said, I
Speaker 2: want that house. And my grandfather knocked on the front
Speaker 2: door and bought it. I swear to got it bought
Speaker 2: for like ten thousand.
Speaker 1: Dollars cash movie where he because my wife.
Speaker 3: Wants O Livia.
Speaker 2: So they hadn't even seen the inside the house and
Speaker 2: went so I was complete shithole like that. So he
Speaker 2: had to renovate like the whole thing whatever. My grandma
Speaker 2: actually started crying. He's like, what have I done?
Speaker 3: I'm so sorry, and he's like, don't worry, we'll fix
Speaker 3: it up. So he did that.
Speaker 1: Wait, so he literally just knocked on the dorse said
Speaker 1: I want to buy it. The people working there lived there, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they said ten thousand dollars cash or whatever he said,
Speaker 2: or you know whatever, it was, fifty thousand cash, whatever
Speaker 2: it was, and he gave it to.
Speaker 1: Him, but he didn't think to go inside and kick
Speaker 1: the town.
Speaker 3: That's where they wanted to live in, Okay.
Speaker 2: But my grandfather was like a fixer upper guy. Him
Speaker 2: and my uncles they could like just just like you,
Speaker 2: just like, yeah, yeah, my favorite tool is the Yellow Pages.
Speaker 1: So uh.
Speaker 2: So they uh so when they bought it from this
Speaker 2: family that had built the house.
Speaker 3: So then my grandparents lived there with my mom.
Speaker 2: My mom was I think nine or ten when she
Speaker 2: moved in it, and then my parents bought it from them,
Speaker 2: and then we grew up in it.
Speaker 3: And then it got knocked down.
Speaker 2: So for like two thirds of this thing's life was
Speaker 2: our family, which is crazy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we.
Speaker 2: Knocked it well, I like kind of it is a shame,
Speaker 2: but it's also kind of nobody else got to live there,
Speaker 2: which is kind of cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, so I burnt it down.
Speaker 2: I mean they're not. Yeah, So that that was that
Speaker 2: was that was pretty cool to have like that experience.
Speaker 2: But my house was the first to go on the
Speaker 2: block when they started renovating all of that Staten Island
Speaker 2: and my neighbor's house, Jason Joseph, he had this big
Speaker 2: house and they would like the last to sell. So
Speaker 2: there's all these new houses up and then Jason's like
Speaker 2: the lapidated house like in the middle of it.
Speaker 1: Oh, still, what is the Are the homes bigger and
Speaker 1: nicer or no?
Speaker 2: No, they're just like the townhouse set up, like that's
Speaker 2: that was turned into. You know, it's like everybody's got
Speaker 2: to shared walls, you know that kind of thing.
Speaker 1: It's nice to go back to section eight when you
Speaker 1: I do.
Speaker 3: I appreciate it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I listen in the hood man marenis harbor Hubble boys.
Speaker 2: Don't mess with them, babe. Jason Gordon brought a clock
Speaker 2: to my backyard. I let him win that basketball game.
Speaker 1: I do want to say the new Hours out now
Speaker 1: on Amazon Prome. Only one of us has an hour
Speaker 1: that's on that's on. You're you make a lot more
Speaker 1: money doing your hour currently. But you were very helpful
Speaker 1: in directing this and overseeing it. And I just want
Speaker 1: to say it's the.
Speaker 2: Best comedy special ever that ever has come out ever,
Speaker 2: and people need to say it. Yes, it is called
Speaker 2: The Last Late Night with Steve Burney. It's available on
Speaker 2: Amazon Prime. It is and if you are a fan
Speaker 2: of this podcast, any podcast, if you're a fan of words,
Speaker 2: actually if if you speak.
Speaker 1: And air, if you breathe, you should watch.
Speaker 2: It because it's for you. I was very proud of
Speaker 2: multiple things with this project.
Speaker 3: For you.
Speaker 2: First of all, you are a very thank you and
Speaker 2: I also wanted to mention, uh, you you are very
Speaker 2: meticulous in your presentation of what you know is going
Speaker 2: to be a project that's going to reflect you. And
Speaker 2: I was very taken back on how serious you were
Speaker 2: about it and also how it was to you and
Speaker 2: how much you cared about it. It didn't feel like you
Speaker 2: were just churning out, Oh it's time to do another hour. Sure,
Speaker 2: it felt like, oh, this is going to be something
Speaker 2: that I'm going to be proud of. And I think
Speaker 2: working with you through that process it made me step
Speaker 2: up my game. As the director would be like, I
Speaker 2: want to make sure that I'm helping him attain his
Speaker 2: vision of something that was good. And I was very
Speaker 2: proud to watch you take that stage. I've seen you
Speaker 2: perform a lot, I've seen you do your stuff, I've watched.
Speaker 1: You be nice to them.
Speaker 2: Be nice is my worst Steve before it walks out,
Speaker 2: never listens. But I've always seen your stuff and I
Speaker 2: felt this thing has you know, it just had it
Speaker 2: has heard it. It's funny as hell, it has heart
Speaker 2: and is a great story and you really get you
Speaker 2: really open up in a way that you haven't in
Speaker 2: your other specials, which I really enjoyed.
Speaker 1: Thank you. So I am excited. Attention to detail I
Speaker 1: think that I put to the special I tried to
Speaker 1: bring to two cool moms as well. The decor, the
Speaker 1: color palettes.
Speaker 3: The design that you did. No, I did that.
Speaker 1: You did that, and you did so you did get
Speaker 1: Oh you forgot.
Speaker 2: So you fly here and you think that's enough. So
Speaker 2: that's good. No, But I'm proud of it, and I'm
Speaker 2: excited for people to see it, and I want to
Speaker 2: make sure that people, you know, give it to love
Speaker 2: and please please do because you know you deserve it.
Speaker 3: It's great and I want to hear people have.
Speaker 1: To say, yeah, I do too. You know. That's the
Speaker 1: thing with these things, And we were discussing it before
Speaker 1: we went on air that just like you film these
Speaker 1: things and so much work and investment goes into them
Speaker 1: and then you forget. It's like, oh, yeah, now I
Speaker 1: hope people like it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, now, are you nervous for people to see it?
Speaker 3: What's your what's your what's your vibe?
Speaker 1: I'm excited for people to see it because I think
Speaker 1: because the concept is so unique and different. And again
Speaker 1: it's you know, it's the late night talk show, so
Speaker 1: it's and hour special. It takes place on the set
Speaker 1: of a late night talk show. And talk shows are
Speaker 1: really three styles of writing. It's one liners, that's your monologue,
Speaker 1: panel storytelling, traditional stand up at the end. So I
Speaker 1: remember when I first came up with the concept, it
Speaker 1: got rejected. Nobody wanted it. I think really nobody wanted
Speaker 1: me at the time because we all go up and
Speaker 1: down and up and down, and at the time, my
Speaker 1: stock was pretty low, and it just everybody just said no, why.
Speaker 1: And I think some people thought it was a gimmick,
Speaker 1: and I just I don't know, I just I just
Speaker 1: didn't give up on it, you know. I was like,
Speaker 1: it's got to work. Somebody's got to give me an opportunity.
Speaker 1: And I was getting to the point where I was
Speaker 1: going to self finance it on my own, and I
Speaker 1: was gearing up to film it in Phoenix, and I
Speaker 1: was working out a door deal with the guys that
Speaker 1: Stand Up Live so that I could take the money
Speaker 1: from the door deal and infuse it into the product.
Speaker 1: And that's what it was going to do. I was
Speaker 1: going to do it on the stage at Stand Up Live.
Speaker 1: And then I took a Hail Mary and invited my
Speaker 1: friend Ryan from Amazon to come out and see it.
Speaker 1: He saw it and he came backstage. He said, I
Speaker 1: love it. This is bold. He said bold like six times,
Speaker 1: and I was like, I hope bold means you're gonna fight.
Speaker 2: Bold me.
Speaker 1: So he uh. He saw it on board. And then
Speaker 1: when I when I knew it was going to actually happen,
Speaker 1: we had started working together, and I know how attentive
Speaker 1: you are to detail and how good you are with production,
Speaker 1: and I thought, well, you know, I think it's so
Speaker 1: funny sometimes when comics are like, yeah, Chris Rock's directing
Speaker 1: my special, or so and so is directed, but it's like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's anybody could direct a special. My mom could direct
Speaker 1: a comedy special. Honestly, you just put six cameras on
Speaker 1: stilts on pegs and you just say action and then
Speaker 1: they're all recording it and then it's like you go
Speaker 1: and edit it. But this had this was different. There
Speaker 1: was a lot of production value in this. There was
Speaker 1: a lot of it's not a typical stereotypical stand up special.
Speaker 1: There was a lot of moving parts to this, and
Speaker 1: so there was a lot.
Speaker 3: Of live band. Like I had a lot of decisions.
Speaker 1: To be made creativity, creatively, and you came in and
Speaker 1: you had great ideas out of the gates. You were Honestly,
Speaker 1: you were the first person I met other than me
Speaker 1: that got at the minute I said it. There's still
Speaker 1: some people like even when they after taping afterwards, I
Speaker 1: heard it like seven times. Yeah, you kept explaining to me.
Speaker 1: I never understood until I saw it, And I was like,
Speaker 1: I don't understand how you can't see it. But even
Speaker 1: the production company, Brian Volquois, San Cisco, they both said
Speaker 1: it to me and they produced it and they go,
Speaker 1: I didn't know what it was going to be until
Speaker 1: we did it. I was like, it's crazy. But you
Speaker 1: were the one. You got it right away and instantly
Speaker 1: you're generating ideas, generating like creative thoughts of transitions and
Speaker 1: what to do and all that stuff. And I just
Speaker 1: I just knew I was in good hands because I
Speaker 1: think if you had the typical like stand up director
Speaker 1: or even a director, I think that I don't think
Speaker 1: it would have come out as great as it did.
Speaker 1: So I thank you very much for that, oh of course,
Speaker 1: but I appreciate it.
Speaker 3: But I can't wait to do the next one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I can't wait to see yours. I mean,
Speaker 1: now that you've.
Speaker 2: Called the first morning show, Now that you did that,
Speaker 2: and you've had the experience with that, and honestly within
Speaker 2: a year's time it's basically been a year you've been
Speaker 2: on the.
Speaker 1: Road, you have a bona fide truly great, engaging, entertaining
Speaker 1: hour you could I mean, based off everything I've seen,
Speaker 1: you're not doing these in clubs. You're doing them in theaters.
Speaker 1: I mean that's another mark of like an achievement. It's
Speaker 1: harder to do that. It's it's harder to sustain attention
Speaker 1: for sixty minutes in a theater environment than it isn't
Speaker 1: a club. Club's a lot more intimate. So again another testament.
Speaker 1: But but is that something that's on the radar.
Speaker 2: Well, it wasn't it until I when I did yours,
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, this could be fun. And then
Speaker 2: now being now having the hour and realizing the content
Speaker 2: is there and it's really strong.
Speaker 3: I'm really proud of it.
Speaker 2: It's different because like in the beginning, I was like, Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm doing this, figure it out, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 2: this is really fun, this is funny. And then when
Speaker 2: I found two or three new chunks to put in
Speaker 2: that really were different, and I felt like we're good.
Speaker 2: And then once I stepped up to the theaters, and so
Speaker 2: I think, ultimately, yeah, I think I would do it
Speaker 2: because I want this to live on, right, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: want to live on I want to go. I don't
Speaker 2: know where I would do put it or whatever, but
Speaker 2: I was just I would want this. I work so
Speaker 2: hard on this. You don't want to just because if
Speaker 2: you don't do it anymore, it's gone, right, Like at
Speaker 2: least you get it on tape.
Speaker 3: It's like, okay, it's here. It is.
Speaker 2: I could give my kids the DVD to bury me with.
Speaker 1: Right in a grim. You know what that is? That's bold,
Speaker 1: that's true.
Speaker 3: Asked me, what am I going to die?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: I said, no, you don't never know.
Speaker 2: Pali goes, you never do, Dad.
Speaker 1: He's five Jesus as he's stirring your coffee.
Speaker 3: Ye oh my god, I'm not going to bed early.
Speaker 1: Bitch, right, thank you?
Speaker 2: So no, well, congratulations, I'm very excited for it. And
Speaker 2: it's a big achievement. And uh, I know, a fifth hour.
Speaker 2: Not many comics don't even get one.
Speaker 1: Well, it's funny because now is the classic conundrum, right,
Speaker 1: is Okay, you put it out there in the world
Speaker 1: and it's like, Okay, they're gonna start coming to see you.
Speaker 1: So now what And so that's the that's the thing
Speaker 1: that's so frustrating, is like I want to start writing again,
Speaker 1: but then you're sitting there looking at a blank notebook,
Speaker 1: going okay, well, if I'm gonna write, at least for me,
Speaker 1: I need to know what i'm writing about, Like what
Speaker 1: is the backbone? What am I driving towards? What's what
Speaker 1: is the structure? God is next one?
Speaker 3: You know, everyone has a process. Though you'll get there.
Speaker 3: You did it five times already, I.
Speaker 1: Know, but it's still it's still like every time I
Speaker 1: it's funny because I feel like I don't know what
Speaker 1: I'm doing. You know, when you're starting over. He was
Speaker 1: just like, what do I do? And then I I
Speaker 1: was flying here today and I was thinking about I
Speaker 1: was like, what if I just did another episode of
Speaker 1: the talk show just I mean, it's such a fun format. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was thinking, Wow, I could do another round of it,
Speaker 1: you know, because I have all these stories that have
Speaker 1: actually happened, like really happened.
Speaker 3: I mean, so much stuff you said here too is
Speaker 3: so entertaining. Yeah, we'll see.
Speaker 1: I don't know, so, I don't know. We'll think about that,
Speaker 1: but but uh, yeah, I can't wait to see yours.
Speaker 1: I think would be whatever you're gonna do, it's gonna
Speaker 1: be really really well done.
Speaker 3: You're just trying to direct it.
Speaker 1: No, I'm not. No, I think I honestly think you could.
Speaker 1: You could self direct your own.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean maybe we'll see what it is.
Speaker 1: I think day of you once you once you're going,
Speaker 1: I mean your cameras.
Speaker 3: Are going going.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not like you need to. Yeah, you know whatever.

Speaker 1: up with another thirty minutes.
Speaker 2: Oh no, he's like one hour, yeah, and one time zone.
Speaker 1: What would what would Jiggy's backdrop be? Let me ask you.
Speaker 1: Then I'll have an idea, and then let's ask Jiggy.

Speaker 1: coming to us from Okay, this is interesting, celestic great.
Speaker 3: The last that was great.
Speaker 1: Three questions c last great it is from Grace. A
Speaker 1: quick question for Joe and Steve if you do this
Speaker 1: too when at your shows? Do you you ever go
Speaker 1: up to the balcony just to see what everyone else sees?
Speaker 1: We just did it from below. Yeah, we just did it.
Speaker 3: Where was that was then?
Speaker 1: Less expensive seats for the Palace theater at Joshow.
Speaker 2: So okay, yeah, we just did it at an elk
Speaker 2: cart Indiana was.
Speaker 1: A Yeah, gorgeous theater.
Speaker 3: Gorgeous.
Speaker 1: That was gorgeous. Yeah, very surprising to me, so so cool.
Speaker 2: And we actually got to stand up and look at
Speaker 2: it from the top.
Speaker 3: And I always like the first thing I do is
Speaker 3: when I stand on.
Speaker 2: Stage, I look to see where the back if I
Speaker 2: could see the back, so you know how far you
Speaker 2: have to project to connect and whatnot.
Speaker 3: I talked to the I talked to the balcony as
Speaker 3: much as I do the orchestra.
Speaker 2: A lot of people when they play kind of down here,
Speaker 2: but I love looking up look at Yeah. But uh yeah,
Speaker 2: I think I think I do do that pretty often.
Speaker 3: Actually, yeah, because we get there earlier. You know, we
Speaker 3: get there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you you always get there early.
Speaker 3: You like to walk, You don't.
Speaker 1: If the show. If I'm on at eight fifteen, I
Speaker 1: like to show up at eight fourteen. I don't like
Speaker 1: to putts around. I like to just dip in do it.
Speaker 1: I don't like waiting around.
Speaker 2: Sometimes you do, al'ad even do it for as long
Speaker 2: as you're supposed to. That's my favorite story about you
Speaker 2: is when you opened for Colin. Jos I came to
Speaker 2: see you. Me and Jiggy came to see you open
Speaker 2: for Colin. And Colin they had like five openers and
Speaker 2: they were like, He's like just two ten minutes. You're like, fine,
Speaker 2: do fifteen minutes, right or whatever you're doing fifteen fifteen.
Speaker 2: You said fine because you had a bunch of people
Speaker 2: opening for him, so you're like, fine, I'll do fifteen.
Speaker 2: And then the person who was running his the whole
Speaker 2: night for him, his tour manager, was like, okay, Steve's up,
Speaker 2: and then she was saying who was next or whatever,
Speaker 2: and Colin you were opening right before Colin and right
Speaker 2: before somebody going before Colin, and I said, they said,
Speaker 2: you asked for a light because you weren't sure about
Speaker 2: the time you had just landed. You literally getting in
Speaker 2: your suit as the first the person.
Speaker 3: Before you was closing.
Speaker 1: I rushed there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you rush there. You got in and you
Speaker 2: had hit traffic, and because it's New York, of course
Speaker 2: it's New Jersey. And then you got on stage and
Speaker 2: you said, all right, just give me a light because
Speaker 2: you were little like so I know, I have to
Speaker 2: wrap up a little frazzled. And the way that the
Speaker 2: theater was set up, as in the top right corner
Speaker 2: there was a sound technician who had a TV monitor
Speaker 2: like a computer monitor was looking at all of it,
Speaker 2: and the monitor was bright, and it was in the
Speaker 2: same direction where you would be getting the light. And
Speaker 2: you're doing your thing, You're doing your cry work, your crush,
Speaker 2: and you have a good time. You're up there for
Speaker 2: three minutes and the guy like drops something and he
Speaker 2: bends down to get to get the whatever he had dropped,
Speaker 2: and he exposes the monitor which is bright, and you
Speaker 2: I see you look up and catch it out of
Speaker 2: the corner of your eye and he stood back up,
Speaker 2: so you thought it was the light and you went
Speaker 2: directly into your closer, which is a two and a
Speaker 2: half minute joke. I know it because I've heard it often.
Speaker 2: And I was like, I was like, oh shit, he
Speaker 2: think he thinks he got the light. And I'm on
Speaker 2: stage with the tor manager and I said, oh, I said,
Speaker 2: he's wrapping up, and she looks at our clock. He's like,
Speaker 2: she's like, he's been on four and a half minutes.
Speaker 2: I said, he thinks he got the light. He goes, no,
Speaker 2: that's impossible. I said, no, that's what's happening. And she
Speaker 2: was like, ah, she ran to go find the next person,
Speaker 2: who I believe was in the bad room to come
Speaker 2: get me because you're rounding. Yeah, that she was coming
Speaker 2: to get him, and you're a coach. She comes back
Speaker 2: and she's like in full smout. You're like, all right, guys,
Speaker 2: you read to get this show going, and she's like ah,
Speaker 2: she's like on the WALKI it was so funny.
Speaker 1: Well that happened with us this past weekend where I
Speaker 1: got off I think a little earlier because I said
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this. I'm gonna do this I'm gonna
Speaker 1: do this. I'll end on this.
Speaker 2: Literally ironing my shirt. It was only me and you
Speaker 2: was a two man show. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm literally
Speaker 2: ironing my shirt in the green room. And I hear
Speaker 2: you say, you guys ready to keep the show going.
Speaker 2: And I was like this, mother, you told me you're doing.
Speaker 2: I watched you.
Speaker 1: Do your joke, but I was at I was at uh.
Speaker 1: I think I was at twenty or whatever. It is,
Speaker 1: like if I'm doing twenty, I'm at the twenty minute mark,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I gotta go off stage because I don't
Speaker 1: want to go over because some people are just particular,
Speaker 1: Like I'd be particular, you know, if somebody's going over,
Speaker 1: Like if you say you're doing twenty and then you
Speaker 1: do twenty four twenty five, I'd be like, okay. But
Speaker 1: if if i'm if if I say I'm doing you
Speaker 1: know you're the you say, hey do twenty, I'm doing twenty. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like and so I want to be respectful to that dismount.
Speaker 1: And and even though I I was like, but the
Speaker 1: crowd was great, they were great.
Speaker 2: You were crushing, Like, I don't want you to go
Speaker 2: an extra three minutes if they're doing well, yeah, don't
Speaker 2: stand there for your suck and get out of well.
Speaker 1: I know you know what I mean though, right I
Speaker 1: fin I didn't want to.
Speaker 2: But if we didn't have the conversation when you told me,
Speaker 2: because I watched you were doing a bit, a new
Speaker 2: bit that I wanted to see before that. So I
Speaker 2: watched that bit. I was like, okay, that did great,
Speaker 2: and then I left to go on my shirt because
Speaker 2: I figured I was okay, I have time now.
Speaker 3: I was in my undershirt.
Speaker 2: Sure was sitting there and you were supposed to do
Speaker 2: that last bit and you were introducing me, and all
Speaker 2: I hear is Zach, one of the guy who works
Speaker 2: for us. He's like, show.
Speaker 1: Running, looking you here, Hello, beautiful, Like, oh mother, let's go. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was That was funny with Colin even calm, He's like, whoa,
Speaker 1: that's like that was coming. I'll give you the friend discount.
Speaker 1: Don't worry. Okay, this is coming to us from Rachel
Speaker 1: Hi Steve. I met Joe at a show in Greensboro,
Speaker 1: the one where he brought a baby up on stage,
Speaker 1: and he told me to send you this photo to
Speaker 1: remind you all to answer my awesome question. So do
Speaker 1: you remember this young I remember the lady. Okay, that's
Speaker 1: her picture. There we go.
Speaker 3: Yes, I met her at the meeting.
Speaker 1: The reminder yes, yes. Question is how do you face
Speaker 1: your greatest fear? Love you mommies, and thanks again to
Speaker 1: Joe for.
Speaker 2: All the last That wasn't the question she asked me.
Speaker 1: How do you face your greatest fear?
Speaker 3: Scroll up? What was the question she asked before? That is?
Speaker 2: That's what she asked. That's it because she told me
Speaker 2: a different question, and I said, oh, that question is awesome.
Speaker 3: That wasn't the question that.
Speaker 1: You think. I'm making it up.
Speaker 3: No, I mess a question.
Speaker 2: I'm messing with you.
Speaker 1: I gotta go to the Sevenfore, how do you face.
Speaker 3: Your greatest fear? I thought was very good because.
Speaker 2: I like sometimes what we could give advice, and I
Speaker 2: feel like fear freezes on lot of people. I've seen it.
Speaker 2: I've lived it. I've seen it more than I've lived it.
Speaker 2: I try to fight through the fear, but I've also
Speaker 2: seen it as a parent with my daughter and my son.
Speaker 2: But I think fear is the isn't a mobilizer, sure,
Speaker 2: and it doesn't only stop you from growing or doing things,
Speaker 2: but also affect it could affect a full life path.
Speaker 2: I think fear is the single most probably besides regret.
Speaker 2: I think fear is the biggest amobilizer to personal growth.
Speaker 1: I don't yeah, I don't disagree with you when you
Speaker 1: put it in the context like that. It's such a
Speaker 1: smart way to break it down. Yeah, when I hear fear,
Speaker 1: I just start thinking of horror films because you had
Speaker 1: like a grade. But but I agree, I think, you know,
Speaker 1: it's fearful to you know, like being in the industry
Speaker 1: we're in, there's so much to fear. Like there truly
Speaker 1: is like if you if you wrote down all the
Speaker 1: speed bumps, the road bumps, the doors that are going
Speaker 1: to the constant rejection.
Speaker 2: Right, it's a land mind that it's all over. Yeah,
Speaker 2: nobody would take a step.
Speaker 1: Everybody's greatest fear. It's ranked higher than death, right, And
Speaker 1: that's what we do. It's what we do for a living,
Speaker 1: and and via public speaking, we make a living doing this.
Speaker 1: You know, some and then all others then also feary
Speaker 1: to fail.
Speaker 2: But you fail to make somebody laugh, right, So that's
Speaker 2: that's right, Right, you're publicly speaking with a feary to
Speaker 2: fail from making people laugh. And everyone is looking at you. Well,
Speaker 2: so it's like everything wrapped together, right.
Speaker 1: I don't think people realize the most common attribute to
Speaker 1: being a comedian is failure. You're taking things on a
Speaker 1: daily or nightly basis, right, Things you scribbled on a
Speaker 1: notepad or in a napkin, or you just remembered it
Speaker 1: on your phone. You you bring it to the stage.
Speaker 3: We're also trying it in the moment.
Speaker 1: Trying it in the moment, nine times out of ten,
Speaker 1: it's gonna fail. The one time out of ten, that's
Speaker 1: what keeps you going, right. So I think stand up
Speaker 1: comedy is the ultimate lesson in failure. I mean, it
Speaker 1: could be attributed to so many professions, but just because
Speaker 1: of what we did do, I just think it's more
Speaker 1: This job is more about failure than anything. I mean,
Speaker 1: when you watch an hour special, you're seeing the one
Speaker 1: thing that worked. You're not seeing the nine things that
Speaker 1: didn't work right, And so that's why it takes.
Speaker 2: Sixty minutes that worked, not the one hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: minutes that didn't.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's the right way to put it.
Speaker 1: So I think it's I think if anybody understands or
Speaker 1: appreciates or you know, doesn't mind giving a warm embrace
Speaker 1: to failure. It's anybody that does this for a living. Yeah, sure,
Speaker 1: but I think what.
Speaker 2: About you think about fear When you think about fear
Speaker 2: just in general, right in your life. Now take it
Speaker 2: away from comedy, but just think about how you've conquered things.
Speaker 2: Fear of commitment, right to get married, or fear of fatherhood,
Speaker 2: fear of like any of that stuff, like fear of
Speaker 2: not knowing what you're doing. Like I remember that being
Speaker 2: a big thing for me about like when you're when
Speaker 2: you became a parent, right, because on paper, it's like, oh,
Speaker 2: you know, and then you realize nobody knows what they're doing,
Speaker 2: and then it's like, oh, but now you have you
Speaker 2: have to do it, like you have to. You're responsible
Speaker 2: for these humans, not only in a monetary thing, which
Speaker 2: was a sidetrack for me where I thought, oh, as
Speaker 2: long as I provide monetarily, I'm doing all right, which
Speaker 2: is wrong, the wrong way to think about it. Then
Speaker 2: it's like, oh, now you have to help mold these children,
Speaker 2: and then you have a fear of like, oh, I
Speaker 2: don't want to fail them, like even this morning with Remo,
Speaker 2: like I got upset about something with him, and he
Speaker 2: got really upset, and I was like, I shouldn't have
Speaker 2: got that upset. And I know I'm not going to
Speaker 2: see him for like five days, and I'm like, what,
Speaker 2: like that was like the last thing I was doing.
Speaker 1: But you had to have that failure. It's almost like
Speaker 1: success is like a is like a graduation of failures. Right,
Speaker 1: So you've got to you've got to get your teeth
Speaker 1: kicked in, you got a trip, you gotta fall, you've
Speaker 1: got to get hammered, and all these things. And the
Speaker 1: key is if you don't learn from those failures, then
Speaker 1: you'll never get to those successes. Yes, then you're just
Speaker 1: caught up in the definition of insanit, which is doing
Speaker 1: the same thing over and over again. So yeah, so
Speaker 1: I think, uh, I think it's it's important to your
Speaker 1: point at the beginning to go back full circle. Is
Speaker 1: is is? I think sometimes people just think too much
Speaker 1: and you're almost creating like a checklist of reasons to
Speaker 1: not do it. But it's like, you know, so many
Speaker 1: times you hear people, well, I'm gonna have kids at
Speaker 1: the right time, or you know, I'm going to move
Speaker 1: to New York at the right time. It's just like
Speaker 1: there's no right time. Just figure the fuck out. Just
Speaker 1: get on with it. And as soon as you put
Speaker 1: yourself in the lines den, the quicker you'll make those
Speaker 1: those failures, and the quicker you can get past those
Speaker 1: to get on the way to the path to success.
Speaker 1: I think so, I think.
Speaker 2: I think my advice would be similar to yours. If
Speaker 2: you can't fight through the fear to do it, like
Speaker 2: if you have to like it, whatever it is, it's
Speaker 2: your fear of something.
Speaker 3: You're facing your fear and you want to get through it.
Speaker 2: And I'm not like talking about like heights or any
Speaker 2: of that stuff, like you know, a rachmophobia, those things
Speaker 2: I'm talking about like fear of like making a decision
Speaker 2: in your life, for taking a risk, if that's the fear,
Speaker 2: because that's what I think, that's what I imagine she's
Speaker 2: speaking of. I don't think you're like, how to give
Speaker 2: them my fear of spiders. If you can't get through it,
Speaker 2: the most important thing to do is like a first identifying,
Speaker 2: try to dismantle it.
Speaker 3: Dismantle it. What are you afraid of?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 3: Why? Like? What's the outcome?
Speaker 2: Break it down as best you can talk to people
Speaker 2: that you trust, get their insight, talk about it, talk
Speaker 2: about it. I'll try to just take you know, the
Speaker 2: more you talk about something, the more you could work
Speaker 2: it out.
Speaker 3: That's always a big thing for me. If you can't.
Speaker 2: Ultimately do it, you have to be okay with that,
Speaker 2: because then you'll get regret. And if you get regret
Speaker 2: on top of the fear, like you completely dismantle yourself
Speaker 2: in a mental you know, you're giving yourself a mental
Speaker 2: state that's just it's craziness. Like you can get through it.
Speaker 2: Now you regret that you couldn't get through it, be
Speaker 2: okay with it. You can't get through it.
Speaker 1: If you can't get through it, right, you.
Speaker 2: Can't face the fear and you can't fight through it.
Speaker 2: And you can't, you have to be okay with it
Speaker 2: and be like, Okay, at least I tried and did
Speaker 2: everything I could to try to get through this fear.
Speaker 3: I just can't do it.
Speaker 2: Then be okay with it, right right, right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I agree with you. I think to have
Speaker 1: regret is almost more painful than the fear itself. Right, So,
Speaker 1: and also just just fuck it, just do it, just
Speaker 1: get out and do it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, like you gotta give it a shot, because
Speaker 2: you know what, You're gonna be dead.
Speaker 1: You're gonna bead die.
Speaker 2: We're all gonna die.
Speaker 3: You're gonna be dead.
Speaker 2: So you know when ultimately like people like, oh, life
Speaker 2: doesn't matter. It doesn't like that's also a good thing, right.
Speaker 3: People like, it doesn't matter, it's all futile. We're gonna
Speaker 3: die anyway.
Speaker 2: You are gonna die anyway, so might as well give
Speaker 2: it a fucking go.
Speaker 1: I I agree, I think I don't know. I I
Speaker 1: you hear that so often, right, it's like, well, we're
Speaker 1: gonna die, it doesn't matter, you know, we're all just
Speaker 1: I remember watching this thing Jim Carrey. We're just a
Speaker 1: specting you. Un None of this fucking matters. It's easy
Speaker 1: to say that when you have one hundred million dollars
Speaker 1: in the bank gym. Yeah, of course, none of the ship. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but I do think that while you're here, why not
Speaker 1: push things to the max and and put your best
Speaker 1: foot forward and do the best of your abilities in
Speaker 1: everything you do so that you don't have again that regret.
Speaker 2: I think that's sentence right with perspective is completely there.
Speaker 3: We're all gonna die, it doesn't matter. Or we're all
Speaker 3: gonna die. It don't matter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, if you're coming at her from the angle
Speaker 2: of all we're all gonna die, it doesn't matter. I
Speaker 2: might as well be defeated in life. Or hey, I
Speaker 2: might as well try to give this the best shot
Speaker 2: that I can because we're gonna die.
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter anyway.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like, it's just all about perspective, right, So just
Speaker 2: try to figure out that fear and get through it.
Speaker 1: It's so funny because I there were times, like when
Speaker 1: I was younger, I was like, if I sat here
Speaker 1: and thought of all the reasons why I shouldn't go
Speaker 1: up tonight, I'd make a very valid case, you know.
Speaker 2: So you can talk to abou about anything.
Speaker 1: You can absolutely talk yourself out of it. But every
Speaker 1: time at like you know, when I was younger and
Speaker 1: I was going around the city and making the rounds
Speaker 1: and stuff, there wasn't a night that went by that
Speaker 1: I didn't think, well, Okay, I fucking pancaked on that
Speaker 1: stage tonight. It was a horrible set, but I still
Speaker 1: garnered experience from it, and I learned from it, and
Speaker 1: so I was always glad to have had. I think, like,
Speaker 1: I don't know, I think I I think you're just
Speaker 1: a better person from from disseminating your failures than you
Speaker 1: are from the successes. I think more about I think
Speaker 1: more about my failures ever than I ever do about
Speaker 1: That was great. It was just like, okay, that was
Speaker 1: it was. It was a great excuse to go out
Speaker 1: that night. That's it.
Speaker 2: But I would I will be on the page of
Speaker 2: It's better to pancake and a failure than to waffle
Speaker 2: in indecision. Oh yeah, and that is a breakfast pun
Speaker 2: that works is also advice, and that's what you get
Speaker 2: here on two Cool Moms because it's great. It's a
Speaker 2: great quote that I thought of and I think it's
Speaker 2: I think it's very good and I want to make
Speaker 2: a T shirt and wear.
Speaker 1: I was just going to say, we now have merch
Speaker 1: and you got to put the one line on the
Speaker 1: front and the other on the back, and then under
Speaker 1: the second line it goes, now I'm hungry.
Speaker 2: Sausage, so gets a bacon.
Speaker 3: I think that's I think that's valles.
Speaker 2: I think you really just got to fight through it,
Speaker 2: and you know, I just go, just go, man, just go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so funny, you know, not to get too personal.
Speaker 1: And I mean, this is so far removed. But I
Speaker 1: have a friend that's in a horrible relationship. Okay, he
Speaker 1: doesn't listen to this, so I'm fine, Okay, in bad relationship,
Speaker 1: and every time I talk to him, just you know,
Speaker 1: it's this, this is this, there's elements tying him to
Speaker 1: the relationship, right, But I'm just sitting there going, you're
Speaker 1: just fucking scared. You're just scared. Get the hell out
Speaker 1: of the relationship because you're not happy. She's not happy.
Speaker 1: And ultimately, no matter who you're with, whether it's great,
Speaker 1: whether it's bad, I think anybody that truly cares and
Speaker 1: loves you will want you to be happy. And I
Speaker 1: think ultimately that's what anybody should want for themselves too.
Speaker 1: If you're happy, then I think, whoever you're with, we'll
Speaker 1: see that and want to support that and give you
Speaker 1: tailwinds to that happiness. But you know, just I'm talking
Speaker 1: to friend and this question comes up just about fear.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, get on with it, God damn it.
Speaker 1: Like be happy within yourself and I guarantee you, if
Speaker 1: you're not happy, that person can't be happy. So why
Speaker 1: are you guys doing this?
Speaker 2: You guys could be a short stack together pancake afelies,
Speaker 2: or you could be waffling waffle in decisions. Yeah, what
Speaker 2: what do you want for breakfast? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think we really did it.
