Have you ever heard a podcast, you dumbass? Dumbass. Well, I just made one. My name is Neil Brennan, and I got a Netflix special out called Blocks. A friend of mine, Jimmy Carr, suggested doing a podcast based on the premise of Blocks. You know what you should do? You should do a podcast where you interview people about their blocks. By blocks, I mean things that make them feel crazy, isolated, or like something's wrong with them.

We'll talk about what their blocks are, what their blocks have been, and how they overcame them, and how they're trying to overcome them today. Got some good guests so far. I'm Dave. David Letterman. There's a guy named Bert Kreischer. He's not wearing a shirt. Bert Kreischer. That's my biggest fear is like, I'm gonna die, and then everyone's gonna be like, my daughters, my wife,

my friends, people are there, and then they go and celebrate my life, but I can't be there? That's so fucked up. Nikki Glaser. I'm envious of youth, beauty. And I remember asking my mom once, do you ever get jealous of me? And she was like, no. She goes, why would I get jealous of you? And I go, because I'm younger than you.

And I'm fucking dead. And I'm. Hello. I'm fucking your husband. Hello, I'm fucking your husband. Subscribe right now to Blocks on whatever pod mechanism you use to listen to podcasts. Before I said I called you a dumbass, but you know I didn't mean that.
