A 3 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:07,960 Speaker 2: legend of the stand up scene who's been making us 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:10,480 Speaker 2: laugh for thirty years, is here to talk about his 5 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:13,800 Speaker 2: new show I'm Offended, where he tackles the big and 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 2: controversial and sensitive topics, and I'm actually offended by this one. 7 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 2: He has a hatred for people who put pineapple on 8 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,920 Speaker 2: their pizza. I don't happen to mind that. Vinca Renti, 9 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:22,520 Speaker 2: how are. 10 00:00:22,400 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 1: You, good morning, Amanda. I don't mind it either, but 11 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: some people get very annoyed about it. I mean, this 12 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,800 Speaker 1: is why we need an Italian voice to Parliament with 13 00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: the big issues. Forget about it. 14 00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:36,479 Speaker 3: Well, if you go to Italy and you have pizza 15 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 3: over there, you just get pizza, tomato and cheese and 16 00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 3: that's it. 17 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: Well, I actually I'm a strong believer in that. I 18 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,200 Speaker 1: think they should only even be three things on a pizza, 19 00:00:45,280 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 1: and two of them are tomato and cheese, so you're 20 00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: allowed one other thing. Ozzie's just loved a lighter. Get 21 00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: it on there, you get tables, chairs, bag and head cats. 22 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: Get it on. 23 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,400 Speaker 2: So what's the nature? Because you're not a person who 24 00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 2: takes offense easily. I wouldn't have thought, but are you 25 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 2: offending people? Is that what's brought this about? 26 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,759 Speaker 1: It's just a catchy title. I mean I'm offended by 27 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 1: the number of people who are on a daily basis offended. 28 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 2: And it's exhausting, isn't it. 29 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: It is? And people just some people just need to 30 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: be offended about something. And you notice that the biggest 31 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: comics in the world, I mean your Dave Chappelle's, You're 32 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 1: Ricky Gervais are people that speak really freely on stage 33 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: about whatever they want to talk about. Comedy isolated people 34 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: is not the problem. Comedy is the solution. You need 35 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 1: to talk about stuff. That's why we have comics so 36 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: you can talk about difficult things and make yourself feel 37 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,280 Speaker 1: I'll give you an exam. Someone had to go at 38 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: me once. Are making fun of sharks? I mean this 39 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: is our sensitive people. I mean, the only reason I 40 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 1: make fun of sharks is because I you as we're 41 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: afraid of sharks. This is a way of dealing with 42 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: a thing. And if we're laughing about sharks, you know 43 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: we're dissipating and mitigating our fear a little bit. 44 00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: That's right. 45 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: What we laugh at Nazi absolutely.

You know, you've got 50 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 1: to be able to talk about stuff. I'm certainly not 51 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: trying to offend anyone who. 52 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,359 Speaker 3: Was offended by the What people were offended?

I mean, look, COVID was a 77 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: wonderful time for comedy, but a terrible time for comics. 78 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: I mean, comedy is good when everyone's on the same page, 79 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: and this is a unique time in history when the 80 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: whole world was experiencing the same thing, going through the 81 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: same sort of you know, lockdowns and sort of vaccine hassles. 82 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: So it's a great time to relate to people. But 83 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: it was a terrible type of comics because you could work. 84 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: I spent two years sitting on a couch and a 85 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: tracking decks, watching Netflix, ordering Uber eats, putting on way 86 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: to collecting job keeper.
