Let's find out what it's like to live a life
Being Ian, being Ian
With Jordan
Meow!
So you're excited about it?
Are we recording?
I heard it.
Are we recording right now?
Kind of left some things to be desired.
Like what?
Like masculinity?
No, some of the things people on the crew talked about.
Anyway guys, let's start the show!
Welcome back to another episode of B and Ian with Jordan.
Jordan is in sunny Los Angeles right now.
So it's a B and Ian with friends.
That gave me that lighted my,
that made my head so light headed.
I also want Ethan to punch in on you
because that was the most unattractive you could tell yourself.
That's literally what I looked like before I think.
Your face looked like it was swallowing your face.
You were white face Louis Armstrong.
That was crazy.
You didn't even see it, idiot.
How dare you?
How dare you join in?
He didn't even see it.
I mean, the fact that Ian's lungs blow that with ease and you couldn't do it.
Oh, yeah.
That's no, I get lightheaded very, very quickly.
Whereas you said it earlier, lightheaded.
Anyway, everybody,
it's going to be one of those.
You got to watch every single thing you say.
Make sure you don't look up at all.
Welcome down to the Wack Shack everybody. It's a fun time. Mike Cannon's got on my friend justified arrogance's shirt. The town. That's a good shirt. You said you felt like me outside.
I did it hugged my stomach a little too much. so I immediately felt your discomfort.
That is a comment you said because earlier my belly was in a bad position, but my balls were looking nice. Yeah, they were plumped up, dude.
Yeah.
You got big balls?
I got big.
I've got big balls.
Is that an ACDC song?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I didn't know that my uncle described a gay guy once as a little ACDC.
I like that.
Yeah.
It's one of those things that sounds right, but doesn't make any sense.
Well, because he goes both ways, like ACDC.
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, that makes perfect sense.
I just got it. I was like, high voice.
You know what I mean? Oh, no, I don't even get it still.
No, he meant ACDC, the current.
You know what ACDC is? But he could mean it ACDC and that he hopes the gay guy tricks himself to death.
We have to back up.
Yes.
Mike, you know what ACDC is? Period. Not the band.
What it actually is.
I thought it was like initials or something.
What? Really? I don't know. I didn't spend a lot of time
studying ACDC.
They're a huge band.
Oh, I know the band. You fucking jimote.
That's why I was like, really?
No, I don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
What's a wave current?
It's electrical current. I suppose a dick.
Don't just say that because I just said that to you.
Is that why the lightning bolt is right in the middle separating the two?
You know like when someone gets the electric chair at the end?
Something like that and the current to that?
I know what ACDC stands for.
A Cuck Accumulating Dick.
AKA Mike Feeney.
This whole time when... Can you punch in on the whole time that he wasn't talking?
Stop asking to punch in. This guy's big he wasn't talking? Stop asking to punch in.
We're going to need you to punch in.
We're going to need you to punch in.
Someone's been editing
you might be from videos.
And we're going to punch in.
We're going to do a slow zoom.
Punch in on Feeney's confusion when he said the wrong name.
What did you call him?
You might be from.
One of the videos where you're like you might be from Florida. I was watching on Feeny's confusion when he said the wrong name. Yeah. What did you call him?
You might be from.
What are the videos where you're like, you might be from?
It's pretty much Jeff Boxworthy.
What are they called?
I don't know anything about my friends.
I don't know music.
Speaking of Pandora's, I was not Pandora's box, but playing music music that is like a Pandora's box that fucking guitar right there
Because I want to play it so bad, but the minute you mention it or even play it at all
He's gonna play it the entire episode. So why did you just bring it up then?
Also, we were like, okay I'm not mistaken. Yeah. There was no mention of Pandora's box. Yeah, no, I was thinking.
As he tries to shame me.
I'll tell you what happened.
I'll tell you what happened.
Take us through your cobwebbed brain.
I'm trying through the Spiderverse.
I'm trying to.
The Spiderverse.
Yeah.
Is what happened.
Here's the story one more time.
I was trying to think.
Punching on that. Punching on that.
If you're going to punch in on anything, you're going to punch in on that.
I'm going to rewatch this.
And if there are there's not one punch in, there's no shot he punches.
You're going to punch in all of the stuff. He's a punching guy.
He's he's great punching in.
That's what he's saying.
The punch in the supercut of the word punch saying. The punch ins make it. There should be just a supercut of the word punch it.
The punch ins make it.
I agree.
Yeah.
And there's also the slow zoom sometimes as someone descends into.
What are we talking about?
Editing?
Watching and having fun.
Sorry.
Sorry.
Sorry.
Oh yeah.
Yo, what's fucking great?
Ken Burns.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Ethan.
This poor boy starred for a fact.
Perfect.
Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Perfect. Oh, Ethan. This poor boy starred for perfection.
Dude, my eyes are tearing and I thought it was because I'm having fun, but it's the cat hair all over the fucking shirt.
My throat is closing.
Oh, really? It is.
I cannot wear anything without cat hair now.
I bet you can't. I'm covered in it.
And good news for me, I just scheduled an appointment
at Meow Parlor this Friday to go look at new cats.
Yes.
You're gonna get another cat?
You're gonna buy one?
I think I'm gonna get him a buddy.
Who?
Why don't you go to like the?
Why don't you go to the?
I've been going, a lot of places don't have kittens.
Well that's not even a little bit, right? How do you know? He went to PS pet PS 9 pets last night
They immediately hide the kittens
Yeah, they turn the thing on the door allergies we have this near-death raccoon for you
Dude, I've been watching videos of raccoons as pets.
They're cute.
Oh my god, I want one.
Yeah, my mom has about nine that she feeds on a daily basis.
What?
That she allows in the house?
They don't come to the house, but she's built a, she built a small ladder for them to go
up and down there, like the lanai on the roof of the house.
And they come down the ladder.
So I think you're lanai on the roof of the house and they come down the ladder. I think you're lanaiing. And they... I know, Feeny did not want me to give that to you.
That would have enjoyed it had I known even what...
I feel like such an idiot.
What's a lanai?
It's a screened in area around a pool in Florida.
I thought you were naming a new comic, Pass it to Zeller.
Lanai Johnson. You were naming a new comic pass at the cellar.
Not Johnson.
They
when she feeds, she buys, I think, 12 pounds of dog food a week. And while and these raccoons come running up and they're little and she and only
occasionally she goes, I go, she goes, I've known them since they were babies.
And now she's totally destroyed their whole ecosystem where they fully depend on her.
And the family depends on her for food.
So she talks about going out of town and she goes, I got it.
As long as someone will come over and feed the raccoons, because if they can't
they're not self-sufficient anymore.
She destroyed their whole thing.
And now there's more and more babies that keep coming.
And she's like, and they're so cute.
And the mama one. And every once in a while, you know, they'll bite or scratch.
But she pet them. Oh, yeah.
I've never seen somebody in sunglasses so clearly look at their watch during a
story. Yeah.
Here's the thing that was Ian getting ready to do a,
this is a long boring story joke because I saw you really over-exaggerate it.
But then I, I saw you do that and I ended the story before you could.
So fuck off.
I was going to say this story is very long.
I don't think anyone knows what a lot is.
I don't know what a lot is, but that's funny.
I know one thing.
No, I was so good at watch because I gotta go to Delaware
and I forget what time my train is.
So I was thinking in my head.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because I gotta go see my doctor tomorrow.
But we're recording like four episodes in a row.
What do you mean your doctor?
You don't have a doctor in New York?
I'll make it.
I'll make it.
Do you still go to your pediatrician?
Dr. Eng?
Yes.
Hi, Dr. Eng. but you go every time you
Herpes now
You have so much
Don't you dare?
I love your idea your way of punching up your own bit was to say it again
up your own bit was to say it again. Double down.
Changed nothing.
Louder.
How do I add?
Louder.
Sometimes that works.
Sometimes I go, all right, I'm a little, this is a little too smart for these fucking
morons.
They need a round two.
Let me say it again.
Yeah, they need more time to digest.
Yeah.
Let me paint the picture for you again.
Ian's doctor is very Asian and Ian has gay STDs from being gay. So picture this.
We've set the scene. Cut to picture if you will a man whose cock looks like braille going to an Asian doctor. Like a pickled as well as vinegar tool.
If Morgan Freeman's face was a penis.
Speaking of which, rest in peace James Earl Jones.
That's right.
Oh, another star.
He was like 90 something.
He had a good run.
98?
Yeah.
That's a long...
I gotta be honest.
I haven't kept up with James Earl Jones
I mean, I do like the fact though that he gave full-blown AI
Star Wars he's like use it in perpetuity. I don't give a shit. You have all this recorded footage of me
I am Darth Vader forever
now in
Perttuity does that mean he doesn't get paid or he's just like, you, you got it for the.
No, I'm not familiar with the terms, but I do know that it's forever.
Yeah.
So if you license something in perpetuity, it means they have your permission forever
and then you get paid.
Yeah.
Okay.
Unless he took a lump sum or a guarantee.
Yeah.
My, uh, versus deal.
Yeah.
My, uh, when I was in high school, you got a versus deal. I'm going to get my
when I was in high school, I got $500 bonus.
Guess what? We had $4.99.
We're adding another star war table. Last minute.
Yeah. Where's the proof of that?
Don't worry about it.
My when I was in high school, my music teacher,
he wrote the theme to P. to PC Richards, which is the...
He whistled it, you mean? Wow. Well, you got somebody's good.
It's a hell of a whistle. But he only took a guarantee because he was like, he's in music.
He's like, I was making fucking theme songs for a bunch of stupid idiots, like tons of...
I want you to find it find I really need you to
find it what you're never gonna find it oh he got two out of you the person how
dare you desecrate such a great tune oh that's closer no no you gotta do, do, do, do, do. Oh, there's the last note.
You're dancing around it.
Reading rainbow.
We'll try.
Ethan, do you wanna switch spots?
You gotta really find it.
Almost like the F at the beginning of a word.
I can't do it. The same almost like the F at the beginning of a word It was the closest that was the closest you've earned the guitar go get it
Having fun on the pod playing guitar and making up songs. I don't think so if I play I
Don't think so because Ethan had, don't ever mention the guitar,
because Ian will stop. Is that what you said?
And you immediately did you really say that?
But that was last time. Forget punch it in.
You're going to get a punch in.
You're going to get out.
Out. How was an out the next word?
You're going to get. Did I smoke weed?
You guys all got high before this.
I do. Literally was mouthing it.
You guys get high before this.
I feel like I'm batting with steroids.
That's so funny.
Because it's a way to make it.
I thought it was no, no, never mind.
What if I is a thing, though, that I feel like when people who don't smoke hang out while people are smoking, I feel like they do kind of get this silly by us.
Silly by us. That was me in general.
Yeah, you have a silly.
You're a perfect person to have around when you're high because you don't make anybody feel insecure about it.
You relate the silliness.
You actually maybe take it a bit too far at times.
It's great. Stop before you said that.
You want to get the guitar?
You can make up some songs.
No. Did you really say that?
He did. He did.
And you shouldn't penalize him for his being a good producer.
And I kind of kind of narked on him pretty hard, though.
Yeah, you fucking snow.
They're friends. I thought your rapper
relationship was down this.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Friends. Yeah, exactly.
They're a little bit OK.
They'll be all right.
No weather. The storm actually helping that I created.
I'm actually helping. Yeah.
So then you said, don't get it what he's saying is that we're better without it we don't we don't need the good thing
I've got other instruments
Guitar is like those are funny cuz you got a bang and you got a blow and it's like all these little things
but a guitar you're like
Yeah, but once you get it
Once you get it you can really have fun.
By how singing a song on a podcast, you know, you really complain a lot. Why don't you have the world's smallest violin?
This is a cello.
No, I don't know. Oh, it actually plays.
Cello. No, I don't know.
Oh, it actually plays.
Which chin do you put it under? Sorry. I felt bad right after I saw that.
Oh, we also have a mini sagalow.
Let him play the violin.
You have the Buddha right there. You could use the Buddha. I was kind of the first thought, but you always go to the next one. I'm trying to find something. What can be eating around here? What can I use to hurt him?
What can be eating around here?
What is this you, you idiot?
Got him, huh?
It was me in high school in my graduation.
Yeah, no, you look very happy.
Let me see. My grandmother.

Yeah, good-looking you do a Sutherland family vibe. See I hate my upper lip
Is that why you have a mustache? Can I see that? I don't think I've ever seen you with your upper lip. Oh
I get it now though. Yeah, you need the mustache. Looks like you freshly smelled that shit
Is it just cuz you were smiling like this on purpose? I was like this
Yeah, it caught me in the middle going. Yeah
The world's my oyster rehab in four years.
Yeah.
Jesus Christ, I've I've hit so many things I haven't learned once.
Now, everyone does that.
Maybe I should move.
You might be able to redecorate.
Move it.
Everyone shattered a piece of a frame on their neck.
All of them are barely.
No, that's actually a good spot for a head to be
Huh?
Framing was a no if we move the frame then your head is framed in that spot and then I got more
Editing and stuff. No one gives a shit. All right, how's this nice?
delete that
Nice.
Delete that. You guys mind if I smoke?
Yes.
Don't smoke weed.
If he smokes a cigarette, we smoke weed.
You can smoke weed.
Okay.
Damn.
Didn't think you'd call that bluff.
I really didn't.
You underestimated my desire to smoke cigarettes.
Yeah, man.
Go for it. Ethan, no. Tell me how to buy new equipment Yeah, man. Go for it.
I don't know.
I don't know.
Why?
Why?
No, though.
I'm saying no to.
Let's be democratic.
I was just trying to agree with my friends.
Do you guys mind if I smoke a cigarette?
Be honest.
Sagalow.
I mind.
I'd prefer not to.
That's a yeah.
Don't no mind.
Yeah, I don't like it either.
And by a swing vote.
Trump takes New York, baby.
Can you go?
Can you what does it do for you?
You don't want to smoke weed.
I can easily pass it up right now
Yeah, I'll also pass it up. Pass it to the left
It'll be more just the fact that i'll just smell like cigarettes for the rest of the day
No one ever smells like cigarettes. It smells overwhelmingly like cigarettes. Then everyone's a liar because everybody tells me it doesn't smell
Yeah, then everybody's lying right to your face. Yeah, we're not doing that're not doing your worst here that I'm living in a world of lies.
Literally everyone you know is lying to you. All of it.
They're looking to get out of the combo quick, dude. The
cameras aren't on. This is a beautiful mind, dude. None of
this is. I'm down here alone. I'm just like, yeah, dude.
It's hard cuts and we're all we're just skeletons with like
cobwebs around us. Whoa. Oh, my God.
Halloween episode. Whoa. Put this in the can.
But now every time that we say the first time he said this episode to a man.
Put this in the can.
Get it.
Boom, boom, boom. I'm smoking.
No, no, I'll be respectful.
I think, yeah.
Yeah, spooky episode.
Don't feel compelled to drive this.
It's his show.
I know. I can do it.
I know about you being in the co-host chair that you're really,
I see you more being in host mode than I've ever seen you.
Or so than you are on podcast.
I'll chill out. Why are you getting mad already? mode than I've ever seen you or so than your own podcast. I'll chill out
Why are you getting mad already? What's going on? Are you okay?
You're Jordan today. I don't like anybody telling me how I feel well
We're just reading facial expressions
Your feelings like someone going you're doing this, but you know, maybe you're right
Wow you fucking broke fast.
No, he never does. I'm honest.
I'm an honest guy and I'm honest about myself.
And if you vote for me.
Are you do the.
You do something.
You're still looking for something. He's like. It's not so easy, is it?
It's very easy.
The looking for nothing was my favorite part of that whole thing.
Still looking for what is Ian.
If you need it, Brendan, it's right here.
Should we do some scenarios?
Take a spin.
Oh, we have some would? Take a spin.
Oh, we have some would you rather's. Do you really? Yeah, right in there.
In this little box. Mm hmm.
A Pandora's box, if you will.
Punch into the callback.
Here we go. Come on.
Lead it, Sagalo.
Which would you choose?
I couldn't get the naming rights for which. Oh, that's hilarious. Yeah. Which would you choose? I couldn't get the naming rights for which would you rather?
Oh, that's hilarious, yeah.
Which would you choose?
Out of all of these questions, you come up with something.
Hey, do you guys want to play the game, given the option?
What do you think?
If I had my druthers.
Which would you choose?
Only caviar for breakfast for the rest of your life or
Only jelly-filled donuts for dinner for the rest of your life
Which would you caviar is gonna be a little healthy though, right?
Fish eggs how much caviar and you put stuff but it's only caviar is for breakfast
So you could just have a light breakfast.
You don't have to eat a lot.
Can you put the caviar in crackers?
But for jelly donuts, you're eating a lot of dinner.
I think it's, I thought about the crackers,
but it said only caviar.
So we just can't put any barbecue sauce or anything on it?
No, you pretty much have two spoonful of eggs
as your breakfast in the morning,
but then it's better than jelly donut for dinner
because you need a lot of donuts if you're gonna have dinner.
And if you do that for more than like two months,
you're gonna probably have a coronary.
I'd hate to tell you that I didn't know
what I would pick immediately,
but as soon as I said jelly, I was there.
I'm just but a fat southern lawyer.
I like to close my day with a jelly-filled pastry.
And that's when I met the man I'd fallen in love with. Your mother. I like to close my day with a jelly-filled pastry.
And that's when I met the man I'd fallen in love with.
Your mother.
All right, let's do another one, I guess.
No, no, let's see how long he can-
This sucks.
We tried this podcast already now.
I know, fuck that.
Let's do another one.
Let's do one more.
No.
Ian, thanks for being on our show, man.
Yeah, what the fuck is this, Sagala?
Are you guys in a fight?
No.
No, I just like to poke a hole.
Who would win in a fist fight?
Their relationship with Samus.
I'm a lover.
Who would win a fistfight? Me or Sagala? See now, this is a this is a conversation you don't want to get into.
Yeah, these are not fun conversations.
Fun conversation. Stokes because I kick your fucking ass.
But I do. I would have to say, I mean, for no other reason than the rings, Ian,
it's got rings. Oh, yeah.
Look at those rings. We'll split you. What the fuck dude? Oh yeah.
Look at those rings.
That will split you open though dude.
And you have, you have.
I'm quick.
I play more video games than him.
You have oven mitts fists.
Yeah dude.
No he does have psoriasis.
So what is that?
Yeah I'm like the thing.
It's a eczema.
Oh yeah.
So you try to punch a boy.
Fredrick can just blow dry skin in your eyes.
And go beat the shit out of you.
Yeah.
I go.
He goes.
He's like Sandman from Ice.
Yeah, yeah. Pocket hey, hey, hey, hey. He goes, ahhh. He's like Sandman from Ice.
Pocket Sans.
There was a kid who, I guess he got too sunburned
during the summer, or he just had chronically.
Do you smell?
Dry skin.
I forgot to put deodorant on.
Let me smell.
Wow, you got it so deep.
It's not that bad.
That was right to the fucking wet hair.
It's a lot better than joy.
But most people always have one pit that smells worse than the others.
Your left is the bad one.
I'd like to see you get in on the left.
I'll take that over Jensen any day.
Could you get in on the left?
We're just friends.
No, I don't want anymore people smelling my armpits.
I didn't feel good about it.
I was like, oh, I
could go to Brandon.
I hate being back in this in this dynamic.
Hey, I love it.
Falling right now. Yeah, it says so on your face.
There's like palpable aggression like that kind of come on.
Like with every like everything's a wet shirt. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, No, no, no, no, no. I'm like that all the time.
No, what it is is you give them a certain chemistry with people.
And this is just what happens.
Our chemistry is like this.
Watch out for two faced rat.
Did you notice how I just Kobe Beam Bryant didn't move a muscle?
What are you going to fucking flinch?
Yeah, I would have if anybody could throw it with accuracy.
You bad gambit.
But he's bad at throwing the cards.
He's like, oh, I've been waiting.
That was amazing.
I've been waiting my whole life for this.
Come on.
Wow.
I'm really good at throwing cards.
How did you learn to do that?
My God, put an orange on your head.
I've been living in Groundhog Day for the last 10,000 years.
Wow, you're I'm a human.
That's crazy.
Am I not?
But I'm a human.
I deserve to be loved.
I love all your fans seeing you throw those stickers that they gave you.
Can you take some airtime?
Give them some airtime. If you pause and zoom in on the frame. Punch in. Hey Ian, can you take this sticker? Can you take this sticker? Give him some air time.
If you pause and zoom in on the frame.
Punch in.
Oh, I gave him that one.
Two-faced rat.
Here you go.
What a prize.
It's more of a descriptor.
No, I'm a three-chinned rat.
All right.
So what are you doing this weekend?
What am I doing this weekend?
Nothing fun. I wanted to go to that.
There's a Halloween parade in Westchester
that I wanted to go to, but it's this Friday early.
Yeah. I was like, that's exactly why I was like, this I wanted to go to. But it's this Friday. It's pretty early. Yeah.
And I was like, that's exactly why I was like,
it's not going to be hot. It's not. It's going to be hot.
There's going to be no like foliage.
You know what I mean? Were you going to dress up and
participate or just?
No, I was just going to go and people watch.
People watch because they walk around.
You know, you know what I really want to go to?
The dog Halloween costume parade.
Where is that? It's in New York City.
I just don't know when it is.
They haven't released the date yet.
Oh, it's one of those. It's a pop up.
Yeah. Yeah.
Why you come to the meow parlor with me?
Oh, and go check out cats.
Yeah, you like cats.
Surely I'm doing something more.
How much how much is a cat like these days?
Yeah, you're buying. Why buy a cat?
Well, you said they don't think I got Samson all told.
Oh, I'll tell you what I'm doing.
I think one hundred fifty bucks.
That includes shots and chips shots, everything.
OK, yeah. Hi, everybody. 150 bucks that includes shots and chips shots everything. Okay. Yeah

While men are stuck with the most boring stuff.
Jack Black is changing the game with high quality products that
smell amazing. That's right. Don't shower. Just put on a new
Jack Black. Finally, there's a brand that makes every product I
use in the same scent. Mix mixing and matching just makes you smell crazy. Jack
Black gives you cleanser, lotion and anti-persever. I'm gonna be honest I'm very tired okay. I
didn't read the ad beforehand I'm reading it for the first time and I really thought it said cleanser. Gives you a cleanser. Yeah,
cleanser. Yeah, gives you a cleanser lotion and antiperspirant
in matching fragrances. You're going to be glad smell you to
smell like all day. Check their sense in Black Reserve, Big Sir, Blue Midnight, and Jack

I do want to get him a little guy like a friend, but he loves to be in my little house lion.
Do you know if the other cat, if you know if the cat will be receptive to another cat?
No, because they can be a very Samson.
I got him when one of my old roommates had a cat.
So he kind of grew up with a cat that cat went away.
And then me and my ex we got a cat together when she lived here.
And then when she left, she took that cat.
How did Samson do with that cat?
Great.
Amazing.
How many loved each other so much?
What kind of watches are you going to have?
Well, I have two.
So that I have two already.
So I think that would be enough.
Yeah, they share.
It's just a matter of having to ingratiate them together.
And like, you got to separate one for like
a week and then you know, I'm only here for like four days, three days a week. So it's like,
you got to hire someone to do all that. I know that's the thing or find another guy to move in
with me. There you go. And she can take care of it. Yeah..com slash be any impod you want to move in and live with me which tear
We don't have here a boy. The only tears would be the person
Was gonna be like this
That was gonna be fun. Yeah, we don't have like here's gonna be like this. I thought it was gonna be fun.
We don't have tears.
It's like being in the...
It's gonna be all these slide whistles and throwing stickers.
It's dark.
Sometimes the slide whistle don't play.
That's when I'm depressed.
And then when I'm manic.
Hey guys!
Time for me to finally
respond to your texts!
Do you feel like
someone who is got
mental issues
like that, when you're at like
when you're just naturally
happy, do you feel like people
are like, oh god,
Ian is, like when you're in like a good mood or something
do you think people are like, oh god, he Ian is like when you're like a good mood or something, do you think people are like, oh, God, he's on the
way up? You ever feel that way? Don't get offended.
No, but somehow I found an old text from Feeny that was like,
hey, is everything all right? You have an alarming amount of
Instagram stories.
That's that's worthy.
And I think like the most stereotypical manic answer I and I gave it was I'm feeling great, dude.
That's the hardest part about, uh, having this have being bipolar is if somebody starts to
question you, you sound crazy in your response. Like if you're like, hey, is everything all right?
And you're like, no, I feel great. Things are good.
And they're like, hmm.
There's no way not to be right.
What you sound like when you're manic.
Right. Right. Right.
And then if you're like, yeah, I'm just down there like,
I have you got to get out of it because they're afraid you'll kill yourself.
Well, you can also just be like, I think I'm fine.
Just having an off day.
Yeah, you just I'll give you I'll give you a script yet to tell all your friends. Yeah, I'll give you a dialogue so you can also just be like, I think I'm fine. Just having an off day. And you just I'll give you I'll give you a script.
Yeah. To tell all your friends.
Yeah. I'll give you a dialogue so you can lie to your big idea was just tell them you're OK.
Yeah. Whisper your answers.
The pain behind a bush and walk around you.
And when it was like, Ian, are you OK?
I go, I'm doing OK.
Thank you.
Whisper in between the aisles of the book at the library. And then but he doesn't hear me. He goes, I'm doing I'm doing okay. Whispering between the aisles of the book at the library and then but he doesn't hear me goes I'm doing I'm gay. Thank you
Let's have a gay joke meter on the show a ding another one you don't get to have a fat joke and
I don't get to have a gay joke. I do think there's fair you fucking yep. You shot first
That's fair. that's fair.
No!
Oh!
Dude, and my eyes were closed when I was doing that,
out of joy, I was like, eye closed, smiling.
And I was like, ah, it felt like I punched a ghost.
Yeah, you hyper-expended your elbow.
I thought for sure your hand was gonna be there.
Why don't you ask me how I'm doing
and Sagalow whisper in my ear answers.
Okay, should I ask it worried or
should I ask it like it's just your choice? Yeah yeah. I'll never tell you how
to deliver your lines. Oh I'd like a reading but hey Ian how you doing man?
Do I have to say it like Batman? I'm good how are you? Why are you talking like Batman? Just don't tell him you're Bruce Wayne.
I'm not not Bruce Wayne.
Get in! Go!
Wait, what?
It's so funny.
Comics, we're all so bad at improvising
in like acting scenes.
I know. I'm trying.
I love it so much.
I love improvising and like acting scenes. I'm trying. I love it so much. I wanna-
I love improvising and like acting.
Yeah.
And it's so funny.
I wanna try improv.
Dude, I used to have a show at Triple Crown
and the whole conceit-
Triple Crown?
Sorry.
What was that, the ghost of Sean Donnelly
coming out of your mouth?
Triple Crown?
Hi, I'm Sean.
Sunglass Hut, four years. I used to have a show at Triple Crown.
That's a good space, by the way.
And the whole conceit of the show was we did stand up and I had an improv team to improv
in the middle.
It was like two standups, improv team stand up, and then the stand-ups at the end would come on and improvise
Oh and nine everybody would all the comics are like no, this is stupid. I don't like it
It's stupid and I remember going to the creek one time and Joe list had like an improv show with stand-ups
I remember watching it was so fun and they like brought out a cake afterwards
I took an improv class with like in a non affiliated from any school improv class with
Joe List, Dan Herschon, Micah Sherman, and like a bunch of other really great standups
when I just started.
I was so panicky though, because I was like eight minutes into stand up and all of them
were so established and hilarious.
But it was it's interesting because you're you're
as a stand up, your whole thing is to like punch punch and punch the bed.
And you end it. You had an improv.
You're like here, teammate.
Yeah, you got it.
You kind of have to just talk normally and like
I loved the absurdist like
just editing earlier, like, oh, yeah,
I love cutting.
I was always like I enjoyed being like the wild card like
yeah you go to space that that was it that's where you could
like that's where you could like this is a good I used to love improv though dude
dude I there was I took improv one on one. What?
There were two different podcasts happening simultaneously and I was really enjoying how
neither one would give up.
It's usually me and Jordan talking and then other people going, do you know, I'm here.
Dude, one time I took Improv 101
and UCB.
The yeah.
And the suggestion was like
restaurant.
I swear to God,
the kid that started the scene
came up as a waiter and he's like, how
do I what would you like to eat?
The teacher was like, what are you doing?
And he's like, it's a Chinese restaurant.
Yeah. Well, that actually for
it. Fight for it.
Look,
I'm all for whatever and whatever.
But I do feel as an improv teacher,
you shouldn't stop the fucking scene.
I mean, unless the guy's going
just call them inwards. You know what I mean, unless the guy's going, it's like you just called him N words,
you know what I mean?
But if a fucking-
I'm a racist waiter.
But you can't.
You can't.
You can't.
You can't.
All right, carry on.
Honestly, honestly, kind of yes.
You know, you told us we have to justify everything.
You go, look, and then you talk to him after,
and you go, look, I liked it.
Did you have a-
But I don't think people
are gonna be so afraid to yes end to take it into weird places.
All right let's you guys do an improv scene.
No no why not why can't we do all of us. I thought it was yes yes.
I want to yes end that. I say all of us do it.
Right. Yes and you too.
Yes and you too is an overrated band. This isn't a fucking no. This line is in any way game where you have to like answer the.
But that's a fun improv game where you add improvising a new game.
We're not wiling out. We don't have to finish this.
Is this wild? Yeah, it's wild now.
Finish the freestyle in the classroom.
Isn't that crazy?
That's right. You're black and lazy.
Why was that fair?
Why was that? Let him cook that there? Let him cook. Why is it written on your arm?
It says my credo. I've been watching. Why are you just reading the inside of my arm?
My irrefutable opinions? No, okay. Well, if we do an improv scene with all four of us,
it'll be like, oh you jumping in. Okay, let's you want to do it like a party
guest thing where we start here and then you guys enter one by one and then we have to
guess what you guys are. That's a who's eyes anyway game. Oh, no, I was going to say, yeah,
I like your idea. I'm getting so lost so quickly. I know. We're we're an improv. I've given
up. We're an improv team. When Brendan gives up his brain, he just goes,
I just go, yeah, I'm checking out.
All right. We're an improv team. The name of us is Braindead Brendan.
It's not a bad name for an improv team. And then we pause and someone starts a scene and then we're on it.
This is what you can do. Give a suggestion.
Mike will give us a monologue about that word.
What? And then we'll create a series from that.
Yeah, that's the way we do it.
We do an AsCat.
We'll do an AsCat.
Yeah.
All right.
You do a monologue.
I'll do a monologue.
I don't even know what you're talking about.
He doesn't know.
I'll do the...
Well, just whoever feels it.
You CB, bro.
Yeah.
I didn't take it.
And what'd you take?
I took it.
I just told you the unaffiliated standard.
I'm a big guy. Unaffiliated guy. I took four classes. That was it.
Four years improv self-taught.
Yes and maybe?
I went through six so-
I was one of the ones that introduced kinda.
Everybody was doing yes and.
I brought in a maybe.
And that's the kind of laugh I'm getting.
Why did you just peepee to death?
Just relentless.
Every hit goes, and it just ends scene.
All right, ready?
What is it, Ethan Goh?
No, see, no, you just say a word. All right. Ready? What is it, Ethan? Go.
No, see, no, you just say a word. Yeah, yeah. You just say a word.
This is all right. I'm glad we're working this out.
Peanut butter jelly sandwich. OK, go.
Somebody do a monologue. Somebody.
All right. Love a monologue.
I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. OK.
But I also love fluff and nutters.
And my favorite thing in the whole wide world is to get a fluff and
utter at my friend Sam's house.
And he also Sam had the one dollar fucking ice teas.
You know what I'm talking about? Arizona, Arizona's.
And yet and I would go through a thousand of those and I was just Sam's
fat kid friend and the parents would always get mad at me because I would eat all their peanut butter jelly sandwiches and
Arizona nice teas. Okay. Thank you. Hey Brendan. Thanks for coming over man. Oh, thanks, bro. I'm excited to be I am starving now
So what do you think about your mom? Maybe cooking us up a of those, cooking up a few of those fluffernutters?
I didn't tell you.
No, what happened?
Mom's dead.
Mom's dead?
Mom's dead.
Oh my God.
I'm so sorry.
What happened?
She was making me a fluffernutter sandwich and she killed herself.
She killed herself in front of you?
She made the sandwich then she killed herself.
We have one left.
Oh no.
Should we like to split it anyway?
I don't want to save it.
I know. But wouldn't it honor her memory if we just ate it instead right now?
With some ice? I am a new salesman here.
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong.
Hold on, hold on. I was going to come in as the mom until he's like, I know.
Dead immediately.
I was like, OK, new character. And then she goes and then he's like, she's dead immediately. So I was like, okay, new character.
And then I was like, isn't mama ghost?
And then he's like, there's one left.
And I'm like, every outlet has been soldered shut.
No, you let the scene breathe.
Fucking insane, dude.
The doors are locked from the inside.
I'm a cop breaking the door.
I finally got the concept and I'm like excited.
He's like don't worry, nobody else could possibly join.
I think we have a good team cooking.
We're the only two people on this planet Earth.
We've established the game and now enter when you guys are ready.
We've established the game.
So I really think that it might be a great idea to honor her legacy, to eat that sandwich right now.
Okay, ding dong.
Ding dong.
I have to get the door.
Hi. I've been going around selling dong. I have to get the door. Hi.
I'm I've been going around selling peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. Hold on. Shh.
Do the ding dong one more time.
Lead into it. OK, ding dong.
I have to get the door.
I'm actually just going ding dong, ding dong.
I'm eating ding dongs.
Ding dong.
I'm going ding-dongs. Ding-dongs. I'm going ding-dongs. Give me ding-dongs.
Ding-dong, ding-dong, banana chip.
Cheeseburger.
Cheeseburger.
Never a salad.
Three Wendy's Frosties.
Jelly donut for dinner.
They gave me utensils for four.
That was more of a...
Fist dig a steak. Fist dig a steak. I'm gonna tell you something. Yeah, I've been selling some pretty poisonous Jelly sandwiches
I
Don't know what I'm doing. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it
I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it
I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it
I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it. I'm just doing it
Yeah, I've been selling some pretty poisonous.
Jelly sandwiches that they make you want to kill yourself, unfortunately.
So as long as no one has eaten anything, you know, as long as no one's
eaten anything in the household, I think I'm to believe that you're a.
Peanut butter jelly, fluffern nut salesman, you're
going to question this now.
You're telling me you're selling intentional
poison, which is the better business bureau.
Do you have a license for your fluffer nutter on
wheels company?
I got to get out of here.
My mother just died and you're interrupting right
now. We still haven't eaten that last fluffer
nutter sandwich.
So let's get to that.
I love that Ian's no offense.
You're you're such a good stand up comic, but your improv.
Here come the pretzels.
Improv pretzels from the Simpsons.
Here come the pretzels.
Your instincts to improv are always to fucking shut the door.
Or I hope we do the complete opposite.
Need I do the sound effect again?
Of what you should do for I go, I'm a jelly.
I'm a peanut butter and jelly salesman.
And he goes, I have to believe that.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I know! Idiot, you said you were selling poisonous peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and you wanted to let me know.
So I was saying, wait, so I'm to believe that you're intentionally selling sandwiches?
Poison sandwiches?
Oh, okay.
Now, I think we can-
I mean, you are questioning it.
I think we could salvage the scene.
You could have said something like, oh, I heard about you.
Yes, and?
I think we could-
Not, not, what a crazy situation this is.
Let's salvage the scene here.
Let's take it up. We got
Would it been you to go yes, I go you murdered my mother how dare you yeah, so we got we got we got
Salvage all right. Hi, I work at it and by the way, we only end the scene when someone clears and runs
We're not doing breakdown middle commentary of the scene as it's happening new see our suggestion
I think the commentaries been little people. Yeah
growing up there was a
supposed little person
like community off this off beaten path in the town I grew up in.
And everybody thought that because it was just a trailer park with many stop
signs.
So we would all go there to stake out to try to find this little people town and
we never saw one midget, but we kept searching for them.
And that was like the activity to do on the weekend in Delaware.
You just ran a bit. Okay.
I'm just that good. Okay. Hold on.
Hello. Oh, you're also a midget.
I was going to be a little person. I'm in the right place. One house, please.
Uh, well you'll have to fill out this form
Do you have a pen Son! Little Brendan! Yes, hello?
Hi, yeah, I heard this is a little person community. I'd like to move in to feel tall.
Well, sir, we only take people under four foot seven.
Understood.
Understood.
It's funny. It's funny.
I want to show more room for the scene to move on and Feeny can come in.
Why?
Yeah, I mean, Feeny in that neighborhood is Gulliver's Travel.
I was going to do that exact thing, going to feel tall.
I was like, I was going to go in and stand up and do that.
I went, wow, I guess I'll do that.
That was a good scene. You guys are great, the add-ons,
and then it was a perfect way to end it.
I love scenes that can end in an irreverent way, you know?
I like that.
That was fun.
Let's do one more.
Let's do another.
Okay, sure.
Suggestion?
Suggestion.
Cannibals.
Cannibals.
Monologue.
Feeny?
Yeah. Anyone?
Canables.
I had a friend who was not a cannibal.
Knock knock.
No, no, no.
Knock knock.
Hello?
Hey, what are you doing right now?
Can I come in? You want to hang out? No, what are you doing right now?
Can I come in?
You want to hang out?
No, I mean, why?
What can I ask why?
Oh, nothing.
I just, my bag is heavy.
I got a lot of condiments.
Do you mind if I just come in?
Condiments?
Okay.
Oh, it is ironic because I am about to sit down and eat a few of these sandwiches.
I got cooked up and I could use some condiments.
Wow, amazing.
All right.
Okay. Come on in!
Yeah, come on in.
Alright, welcome.
Thanks.
Oh, okay.
You're gonna get this clunt.
Hold on, somebody else.
Oh, wait, whoa, you're spilling the mustard on me.
That's a tragic mistake, I'm sure.
If a guy comes around here with a bag of condiments, do not let him in.
Whoa!
Wait a minute!
Shut the fuck up!
Slam!
That guy was a liar!
Maybe he's missing a finger!
Let me run to the table!
These are fun scenes!
These are fun scenes!
I would love to try improv.
I want this to be an entire podcast.
This is short form improv!
This is great form improv. Yeah, I love this.
This is great. I love DCB.
Short. Another another suggestion.
I don't want to do this anymore.
I want to have just a conversation now if that's OK.
All right. How'd you guys get started in comedy?
Yeah. What do you want to talk about then?
Well, we could still talk about improv.
I just don't want to keep doing improv.
Why? I don't know if you want to keep doing it.
All right. I'm right there with you, but I do like you being the bad guy
Fun one more scene we do need one more monologue
Space travel space travel
Crying for my eyes because of the cats.
When I was a young man, I had only one dream in my entire life, and that was to travel to the never nether regions of space.
You got it. OK, seen.
Knock knock. Who's there?
Hey, I am NASA scientist Mark Gregoros.
Hello, Mark.
How are you?
Welcome.
I heard Mark Gregoros comes in.
Do not let him in.
I was going to do that.
Do not let this guy come in.
That's exactly what I was going to do.
I love that every scene with Ian starts with a nock., and Mike sets it up with a, who's there?
Who is there?
I think Mark Ricaros is a lawyer that ended up representing like Scott Peterson.
Alright, one more scene.
One more scene.
No, come on.
That was great.
Yes.
I'm running out of brain power.
I'm running out of brain power.
I'd rather just have a conversation.
Which is?
I'm running out of brain power.
I'm running out of brain power.
I'd rather just have a conversation.
Which is?
I'm running out of brain power.
I'm running out of brain power.
I'm running out of brain power.
I'm running out of brain power.
I'm running out of brain power. I'm running out It was great. I'm running out of brain power
I'm running out of brain power. I'd rather just have a conversation
Which is basically the improv of friendship?
That's true and a friendship is just a podcast you don't record right a bad seeing bad improv
I mean, it's one thing seeing bad stand up, but seeing bad improv must be
too high.
But I rank it as
the worst to the worst to watch is for sure.
Scott, bad sketch and then bad improv and then bad stand up because
stand up and improv. You could just get out of it.
But when sketch I used to go to like you see me when I was taking sketch classes
there and people would have these, you know,
the first sketch they go like, and that's my mama.
And then the first that would bomb.
And then they had like nine written in callbacks.
And every time they would be like, you see them coming.
Oh, well, you'd be like knock, knock and don't answer the door.
Yeah, but it's as if it bombed every time. If it bombs the first time, it's
going to bomb all the callbacks.
And then so it just started.
You can see the actors being like this,
the big punchlines coming and they
hated it the first time.
I want to talk to like a sketch actor.
I want to ask him what that's like,
because like just a sketch actor, I
would I would love to be like, what do
you do when it's not doing well?
I call a friend that was a sketch
writer and actor. Bring him in. Let's have him in. Call him up. Call him up. No, but like, there's
nothing to do. You bomb. That's my whole point. Yeah, dude. I think the idea is try like,
let me call my buddy from what I've heard from all of my best of Phil Hartman's and
all of those videos. It's like you basically rely on them. Okay. We're going to make each
other laugh or try to do that or Muhammad Atta the plane and just drive it.
Hartman was the best example.
You just say the N-word, you just go, you know what?
He just committed harder.
Ready?
He just committed harder to the bit.
What's up, brother?
Yo, what's up, dude?
You are on the podcast. Are you all right with that?
I love it.
All right, guys, this is James McCarthy, one of my oldest buddies.
James and I used to be together.
Oh, James. Do you know Mike Feeney, right?
I know Mike Feeney. Hey, Mike. How you doing?
What's up, James? Good to see you, buddy.
Yeah, it's Mike Cann and Mike Feeney and Brendan Sagalow. We are talking improv and sketch.
By the way, movie James wrote,
Office Run, coming to streaming September 18th
on Paramount+.
Yeah.
There you go, cool.
Office Race, but very cool.
Office Race, fuck, fuck!
I have a scene in it.
Nice.
I have the first line in the movie.
Wow.
He goes, knock, knock, knock.
Okay, so we wanted to know in sketch.
Actually, Feeny, take it away.
Feeny wanted to know. I know I wanted to know because I know the answer already.
So we all know what, you know, when you're bombing as a stand up,
like you can get out of it by being like, man, I'm bombing or whatever.
You know, is there with that was sketch or do you just have to power through
the scene and like both of you are just like this?
Is not going well, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, I mean first off. I love how you guys like I need a question about bombing and sketch. Let me call James
Well, you know if you want to know about striking out and, and how to overcome it,
yes, Babe Ruth.
That's right.
Yeah, yeah, for sure.
No, no question.
You gotta embrace the fail there.
You embrace the suck.
You can improvise a little bit, but for the most part, you know, you're going down with
the ship and you're really just trying to be out there with your teammates.
Like you support them you kind of stay in it and
Just get on to the next one and then edit the shit out of that one for next time or kill it forever
Wow, that's that's wild dude. Just you're the captain of the Titanic hearing the windows about the buckle and you gotta stand there proudly
Also James is a head writer of Impractical Jokers.
Nice.
What happens if something is bombing on that show?
They don't air it.
They don't air it, that's it, baby, yeah.
It just goes away forever.
I'm sure a lot of stuff bombs on that show, right?
It's not for sure, you could go,
I mean, it's like we have like such a huge safety net,
like it's not live, and if somebody sucks, it's like we have like such a huge safety net. I was like, it's not live.
And if somebody sucks, like like a person we're interacting with, we just go on to the next person.
That's what I'm saying.
Like there must be a lot more of the reactions where you're like, this is nothing.
We can't use this. Blah, blah, blah.
Yeah. Have you ever in the middle of it, something is just not going anywhere to funny.
And you're like, all right, just end it.
And then the guys has to drop character.
Yeah, every day.
They call that the building.
So funny, like we don't know.
And this is so obvious to him.
He's like, yes.
James, it's not funny.
Always like when you're in it and filming it like we've done two specials where like we're out on the floor and it's just like,
imagine being like doing a standup set in a grocery store where you're the only
person that thinks you're doing anything funny and the person that you're talking
to thinks you're just being a complete weirdo.
Yeah, we all did stand up during the pandemic.
Suits meadow, dude.
The people in your head, like in your ear.
It's just like your base of the floor in the supermarket is you're just a weirdo that is
like, you know, lifting up his shirt and rubbing his belly.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So.
Well, thank you.
Thanks, James.
Thanks, James.
Thank you all.
James, I'll see you September 18th streaming on
Paramount Plus Office Race. Office Race. That's cool. That's three days after my special Traumatized
Animal airs. That's right. Traumatized Animal on Christie Comedy's YouTube channel. James,
did we do Improv 401? one one did we do together?
All I know is I definitely bombed big and that made you think of me now. So probably for a while.
Do you remember how I was as an improviser back then?
Please say you're really
not you're you're funny, you're definitely James is the nicest.
James is the kindest man ever.
I was not just go feeding.
There's a reason you do stand up.
I'm a head writer and a practice joker.
Jokers and I have a family.
You think I remember 401 with you?
I think he does.
Yeah, I think it was a man.
Love you, buddy.
I'll talk to you later.
Bye, James.
James is hung up. James was a man. Love you, buddy. I'll talk to you later. Hi, James. James is hung up.
James was never here. We also we bombed the sketch once the one time we ever tried to say that again.
That's a perfect example of what you do.
We just committed our committed heart to it from the second we walked out.
Yeah, at that point, I guess you are kind of just doing the scene
with the person and make it was we did stick or Treat. Him and I decided to do the deepest cut.
Blues Brothers? I think the only reason that we didn't do well is because what we picked sucked
and it wasn't funny. Well, it was funny in the movie. We picked the scene from Black Sheep where
David Spade and Chris Farley where Chris Farley gets the bat loose in the house and then they
put the rug over him. So much physical comedy.
Yeah, well, we were doing no dialogue.
We were doing no dialogue.
We're just kind of like, yeah, we were like, this is burning.
Mostly just hit me, hit him with a broom and people didn't know what was going on.
They had no idea.
It bombed so bad.
You could hear the impact of the broom on his back.
We're both kind of laughing at how much it's bothering.
He's getting madder as it goes on,
so he's not pulling the hit anymore.
I took my day out.
But then the best one is Brendan after this,
there's just the silence of me beating a stranger
underneath a rug.
And then he- No one knows why you're hitting me.
Or what's going on, they don't know the reference.
And he picks his hand up from underneath the rug
and just goes, we're done now. And he picks his head up from underneath the rugged disc. We're done now.
And then we pick up all of our props.
We had scattered and just kind of walk off.
We recorded Feeny doing the sound of a bat
and having it play over instead of getting like a real bat sound.
We got we got Feeny going.
Really? Oh, that's good. It is good.
Basically got an effect.
And well we had the sound guy.
The show was so fun.
Stick or treat.
I did strip club bouncer Willy Wonka.
Oh yeah I remember that.
Yeah and I had Karen be like the stripper.
That was really fun. And Larsen did Pogo the Clown, which was John Wayne Gacy's clown.
Yes, that was really funny. That was great.
And we did we did the Blues Brothers. That was great.
We did the Blues Brothers killed with the Blues Brothers.
Oh, Jason Burke did Andrew Nice Clay. Oh, yeah. That was awesome.
Oh, that was funny. Yeah.
We also did the the old Muppets. Oh, yeah. That was funny. Yeah. We also did the the old Muppets. Oh,
yeah. That statler and Waldorf. Yes, that learn Waldorf while Robert Dean did anti PC
Fozzie the bear. It was very he's like doing stand up and he's like, you can't say anything
anymore. And we're going we're ha PC more like P.U.
Yeah, that's great.
It was really fun. Yeah, it was really fun.
Yeah. Shows.
Do you remember Revenge of the Body Snatchers?
Yeah. We did somebody else's set.
Yeah, that was fun.
I heard people would get into fights about it.
They would, because where was that?
The Creek. That was one of those things where so people there was
you would just do somebody else's stuff and not a famous person, just another comic comic in the scene, which kind of was
just an indictment of how much someone would just do the same set.
If you could really recite their whole act like there were multiple comics where I was
like, oh, I could do 10 minutes straight of them without, you know, like because I've
seen them do this set so many times.
But there would be people getting into because I think comics would be like, it's not funny
if you're just doing it. So you'd
be like, look at me. Yeah, but they'd all like dress up as each other. Yeah. Do you
remember Joel Wachowski, Eli Sayers, Ray Compe, maybe and Jeff Weschel Smith? What was that
called? I just had it in my head. Is that dog? No, is it wild cats? Some of the hell- wild cats? No.
Underbelly?
Wasn't there another thing?
Well, underbelly was Kelly Fustuka's show.
That's right.
Maybe wild cat.
Wild cat sounds right.
Right.
Or something.
I forget, man.
I just remember dressing up as a bear for Matt Wayne and Doug Smith's show and drinking
six tequila shots.
Oh, yeah.
See you in hell.
See you in hell.
I had to do a- I had to do puppet hell where I had to hold a puppet and then I just made him my subconscious. Like, yelling in hell. I had to do a I had to do puppet hell where I had to hold a puppet.
And then I just made him my subconscious like yelling.
And it was really fun.
I mean, the bear.
Living in America, man.
The bear, like the whiskey bear was actually I've had that one before.
And that one was great because you could just do your joke.
You take a shot, you go back to your job.
I had another one that was freestyle
rap hell. And so you'd be telling your setup and then they would drop the beat exactly
when you were about to do like the punch line and you'd have to change and freestyle rapping.
And it was so hard. And then, and then the other one was heckler hell. So you'd be, you'd
do the setup and then right before the punch on time, someone would just scream something
out and there's just no way to do that
That's just annoying. I did one for christmas and pd diabra was had to go up and it was santa claus hell
So he just sit and put on a santa suit and i'll never forget people
Comics started running up and would sit on his lap. Uh-huh. And uh, very funny nick nanny ran up and he was like
What do you want for christmas? And he was like a kiss.
And he was like, Santa doesn't know if he could give that to you.
And then I ran up and he was like, what do you want for Christmas?
And I go, to say the N word.
That's funny.
It was so fun.
Yeah, that was a fun.
I'm surprised that didn't become like a television show, like an actual.
They almost they were pitching it for a while. Yeah. Yeah, that was a fun. I'm surprised that didn't become like a television show, like an actual they almost they were pitching it for a while. Yeah. Yeah, that was great. What what were the
other ones at the the creek was like ripping and run. Did you do that show with the mushroom show?
I remember seeing James Adomian do Bernie Sanders while he was on mushrooms. And it was like he got
caught in this thing where I think he does it normally, but like it's just the it's just the cadence.
So he said something that didn't quite make sense, but he goes, but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but but never seen somebody sink into a character like that. And also just riff till the wheels fall off. Oh dude. Yeah. I saw, I remember I went and saw a debate with
James Adomian doing Bernie and Anthony Taminick doing Trump. Yeah. They did an album. And I think it was at like the bell house. It was so funny.
Dude, James Adomian does this bit where it's Louis Black, but it, but Louis Black as like
where it's Lewis Black, but it but Lewis Black as like a 13 or 12 year old girl
and like writing in her diary and being like today, Jimmy smiled at me.
It's so funny.
Dude, that's so good.
It's so good. That's great.
Yeah, he's so funny, man.
Do what was another show they they did it?
Dude, the Creek Produce was one place
and then getting like a Mindy Tucker
was like, oh, I was just talking about that
with someone where I was like I was like that,
you know, there was a time where everyone's
like, I got to get a Mindy Tucker.
Yeah. And then I remember
I remember, dude, it was like right around the time the standing room opened and I hadn't been to the creek in a while and I went there and it was like everybody I knew left and it was all new people and they were all weird.
And I remember like it was a thing we would be like, dude, oh my God, I really want to get a mini, but that was between us.
And then these people started posting it online, like working on getting my mini. And it was like, oh, oh my God, I really want to get a mini. But that was between us. And then these people started posting it online, like
working on getting my mini.
And it was like, oh, gross.
Yeah. You don't talk like they wanted it.
So gross. Yeah.
You know, you beg for it behind the scenes.
Yeah. Yeah.
Position yourself next to the person being currently photographed.
Jason Sines had a show that was like last week.
It was called Last Week Was Packed.
Oh, yeah.
That's Nick Vadaroff. Yeah. And then there was another that was called How'd You Get That?
Nick Vadaroff. So what was funny about Nick Vadaroff shows that it never had more
than four people in the audience.
And but behind the screen on the stage, in the backdrop was a giant projector.
And it would be like a full audience, like exclaiming.
And then he would come out and start every show
and I can see was just being like, guys, I'm so sorry for the
little turn. As you can see, last week was packed and it was
just he committed to it every time.
Nick Baderat is so funny.
So fucking funny. His album for amusement only,
I've sat and played it and been like, what do you think?
What do you think? Like in front of people.
Oh, yeah. Like friends of mine just like made. do you think? What do you think? Like in front of people. Oh yeah.
