Jim Jefferies (Intolerant, Legit) joins me this week to talk about common misconceptions and burdens that he has to deal with based on the party animal persona he portrays on stage.

The Conjuring Last Rites on September 5th. I come down here within your house. Array! Array!

Array! Array! The Conjuring Last Rites. Only in theater September 5th. You're listening to Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum. I don't know. I just thought of something funny. I get confused on which guest is going to be this week.

And we started doing an intro and realized Ryan looks at me and says, wrong guest. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Wrong guest. It's funny how different guests act in terms of people are busy. I'm not, it's just funny how some people are really incredibly professional and on time and this. I think most people strive to do that.

that to be that, I know I do, but sometimes things happen. Well, things get a little crazy sometimes. And this, uh, this guest was, it was a lot of fun. It was one of those things where he actually messaged me a few weeks ago. And it's like, yeah, I might, uh, yeah, love to come on the show again. If you need a guest, it's just really cool. I fucking, freaking, I don't want to F bomb, but. And, um, it was fun. because I said, yeah, man, of course. I'd love to have you. You got a new show. You're doing things. You're a funny guy. You're a big comedian. And so I, you know, I was like, great. How about this date? You know, 1030. And then a week before, he's like, hey, are we doing this, Mike? I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1030 next week.

1030. Great. And so then we get to the day and I'm sitting here with Ryan and I'm like, I don't know if it's going to happen. I mean, you know, again, when you're busy, you don't, if you don't write things, if I don't write something down, Ryan, in my calendar, if I don't write it on the whiteboard, if it's, white it. If it's, if I text myself, forget it. Because, you know, the text keep going down as people text you and it's gone. If you email it, I have a better chance of remembering and then writing it down and putting it in the calendar, I'm a one man squad sort of here at the house. So it gets, I lose shit. So I understand. So all of a sudden, 15 minutes pass. And I call him. I actually didn't have his number, but one of my friends gave me it. But I had his email. I mean, we're, you know, we're buds. And he's like, he calls me. He's like, hey, mate.

I'm like, yeah. How you doing? He's like, is this now? I'm like, yeah, yeah, we're going to do the, you know, yeah, right. You know, I just woke up and, just jump in the shower, you know, clean off and gave you a call. It was great. He wasn't ultimately really that late. You know, he was just, you know, he's just so funny.

He's naturally, I always say there's certain people that you look at, and you're like, he's just funny. I think I say that to him in the beginning of the interview. You do, yeah. I found myself laughing a lot. I don't laugh a ton, right? He had some good stories. He has some good stories, Jim Jeffries.

And you're right, it's the accent, and it's just his general appearance. And everybody, yeah, and everybody always wants to do the Australian accent, the English accent, we're Americans, we can't always do it. He's like, eh, yeah, yeah. But I went to Australia a few times, and we talk about that, but I'm just, want to say thank you to everybody out there who's listening. I do it every week, but the patrons, you're unbelievable.

Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum was not recorded in front of a live studio audience.

You know, I know why you're successful. I know why you have all these shows and all these, you stand up around the world. Because you just look at you and you just, there's something, I don't know, like your next special should be called innocent looking but fucked up you just look like you're such like you had this gentle face like this sweet look on your face but you're up to fucking no good jim i know it i'm like a cabbage vegetable you mean a garbage pale kid yeah i'm a garbage pal kid whatever happened to them i know yeah let's reminisce about that and all the stuff that went on how are you my friend anyway enjoying quarantine i'm making the most of it man i've been

in and out of, uh, in and out of, uh, sort of anxiousness, you know, anxiety, a little, little depression, but mostly, you know, good. The busier I am, man, the busier I am. Is that, is that how you're doing? You're busy. Yeah, I, you know, you go up and down. I, I, I either like doing a lot of work or no work. So this sort of middle ground is, isn't good for me.

Because, you know, it's, it's still people saying, oh, turn in this or write this script or do something like that and so you still have you still have that feeling of anxiety where you've got homework looming over here you know you doesn't feel like a holiday you know did you do homework as like when you were young were you always the guy who like I was honestly I'm not just trying to say I was the guy who tried to get out of it I was the guy who tried to cheat I was the guy who was like you know the smart kid be friends with that guy uh I would always try to get by because I never thought I was very smarter that I could do it on my own yeah I um I didn't I've never studied or anything like that.

I've never been that boy who put the time in, you know. I wish I could tell you that I was a more conscientious person, but I was bloody hopeless I was. And I'm going to try this charger. All right, I reckon I'm good now. Can you still see me? Is that your screening room? Yeah.

That's, you know, I thought I had a cool screening room, and it's just a couch and a big screen, but that's a real deal. That's like somebody came in there from AMC. and did your shit. First of all, you know, because you, it's funny because you communicate through Instagram.

That's sort of how, in a lot of ways. I mean, you're like, hey, man, hey, mate, this is easier for me. Just like, you know, I'll do the podcast, mate. So is that a bad Australian accent? It's not bad.

Not bad. So you're like, yeah, what time? I'm like, 10.30. Great. You want the day? Yeah, sure. It's just like, and then, so right before you come on my editor here Ryan my engineer he's like he knows to come on right he's

gonna you know I don't know I don't know where Jim Jeffries is like I don't know you that well I've never really hung out with you I'd love to hang out with you it worries me that I'm I'm it's unpredictable I usually you know those days of hanging out with people who go get you know shit faced and all that I don't know exactly if you do that but there's that maybe preconceived thought am I going to get in trouble if I'm with Jim or is Jim going to They're just like, no, mate, we're just going to go for a burger. I think there's a myth about me that you're going to get wasted and there's going to be drugs involved and all that type of stuff.

And that myth is, was perpetuated by me. I put that all out there. So when I get like, when I start working on a, for a new network or something like that, and they really talk to me like, you know, you're going to behave, right? And I'm actually a pretty well-behaved bloke who's done some things. Most of my parting was done in my 20s. you know i mean we're 40s now and so so i you know i've only got myself to blame but yes that could happen we could get shit-faced but probably will be fine probably so i wouldn't be in

any danger most likely oh no i never get arrested or anything like that you're all fine it's very safe my my main buys these days is i like an edible every now and again and i i enjoy i enjoy magic mushrooms and i do them about one every two weeks and that's not really a shit-faced scenario is it that's a i i've met a lot of in fact women who you know you get on a dating app or whatever and you know you kind of you don't want to interrogate but you want to find out you know is this a party person is this a whatever and then they're like you know it always comes down to well i like the edibles i'll have a mushroom every once in a while like you know every other day but uh i mean i i had a bad experience on mushrooms and i

never did it again but i'm wondering if i should because a lot of people say it could be fantastic. It's a wonderful. I don't do hard drugs. I haven't done hard drugs in a very, very long time. And I'm glad about that because they used to make me so depressed the next day. And alcohol makes me so depressed the next day. And mushrooms I have no depression on afterwards, none.

And so that for me is, I'm really thinking about tomorrow more than the experience in the moment, I guess. But like, it's one of these things with mushrooms you can have, take them for eight hours and you'll have seven hours that are wonderful and then there's about 15 minutes in there where you just go, oh, I never did anything with my life. I could have been a better son. Oh, God.

I should apologize to this person I fucked over when I was 18. You know what I mean? Like those things come and haunt you. But you never do that. You never in the middle of mushrooms go, I'm going to call, you know, Sally. Well, I always speak to a friend of mine and they'll always go, you're fine.

You're worrying about nothing. everything's good you're not a terrible person you go i'm not and then you know the next day they go you are a terrible person but we felt like in that moment that's exactly right well see here's the thing you know when your friends are like oh man try this joint here just take a hit it's really good to go no no because then you take a hit off that joint and you're looking in the mirror going you're fine you're fine so i don't trust those guys anymore so i have to get the right amount so if someone goes yeah just try mushrooms now mushrooms might be right that amount might be perfect for Jim Jeffries, but I take it, it might put me over the edge.

I'm a lightweight. So how do I know? Like little amounts, little amounts, little amounts until you hit your ceiling, you know what I mean? That's why the whole weed thing, like, remember the wild west of marijuana when people made edibles, and you'd have a brownie, and you'd have no idea how much was in it. And you're just like, all right, off we go. And now you get these little blueberries and they say five milligrams, and you're like, okay, and then it'll take 10 or you take 20 i always take 20 is my sort of entry level i take 20 milligrams

and then sit back and then i just eat like an asshole you know then that's it have you gained any weight in quarantine no i think i probably you know i mean i'm not i'm not bragging about it but you know the only thing i've done is like i'm trying to work out every other day but i started i got stressed because my dog is a little sick and it's he's old and it's like all these things start coming at you you're alone. I'm alone a lot, but I, you know, I started smoking a little bit. Cigarettes, not good. Not good. And I'm not doing it a lot, but it's not good. You smoke? No. Say, don't touch it. Yeah, I don't do anything else really, but I'm like, why he's, why you do?

I'm sitting there. I'm not even enjoying the cigarette. I'm like, why are you doing this? Yeah, yeah. I know. That's the worst of all the habits, that one. Oh, my God. I wish I never touched one of those things. You smoked for a long time? I have, I have done, but I don't need longer. Don't touch him. I had a doctor tell me once. He's like, you smoke i go oh well you know maybe i don't know maybe a pack two packs tops a week he's like oh that's that's not going to bother you i'm like really like why did he tell me that why did he say that was okay well you know those ones where where you answer the doctor this is the problem with the american health care service like how many cigarettes do you have a week how many drinks do you

have and then you're like you go well i should answer this honestly because this could save my life but i don't want to answer honestly because it might make my premiums go up And, you know, when I get my final acting job, I'll never be able to get health care because I was honest. So I'll just risk cancer and tell a lie right now. Do you have any back problems? No. Michael, you have seven back surgeries. You just put no here.

I'm like, yeah, but I don't have back problems now. I was, when I first got in a very good, I had to get private health care because I didn't, you know, I didn't have health care here. I just had to pay for it. And I was like, not a citizen and all that stuff. And so I thought, I'll be honest. because I'm pretty healthy person I've got no you know main big problems and I said I've had a few hemorrhoids in my life

for one hemorrhoid surgery which isn't pleasant and I said and I said and I've been on and off antidepressants for about 10 years but I haven't taken them for the last four years you know but I suffered from depression and then they came back and they were like you have to pay like 600 bucks a month for health care and I was like you fucking what

because I've never been in the country that didn't have public health care, you know? And so I was like, why? And they said, oh, because you suffer from depression. And I go, but the end result is I kill myself and you don't have to pay for that. It's not like, it's not like I've got an ailment that's going to keep getting worse. And I'll have to be put in the traction and all this type of stuff. It's like, there's only two ways this can go.

I didn't get better or it won't. I didn't know that when you fill those little questionnaires out, that's for insurance. I'll tell you what, when I had the hemorrhoid surgery, right, they put me on a, on a triangle, like foam pillow, this big triangle thing. So your ass is right in the air. And then they put it, they put, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they, they give you them the gas that you're about to be knocked out, the anesthesia, right? And just, it's one of those times that you don't want to be recognized, right? And just as, just as I'm going down, just as I'm about to go into that sleep, what I'm, of the nurse's sticks, and my head's in like a massage chairhole, you know, like in face

forward. And this nurse, she ducks her head underneath and she looks to me and she goes, my boyfriend's your biggest and then I fall asleep. And I'm like, what are the chances that that lady isn't going to go back to her boyfriend and go, oh, we looked up Jim Jeffrey's asshole. It was filled with poachs and fucking warts and... That's exactly what I would think. I would think that's what, oh my God, they're going to go tell them what a dirty asshole I have.

Somehow my asshole, my asshole lips are bigger than anyone else's. Yeah, like Jim Jeffries has a huge prolapsed asshole that we had to do surgery on. And you're like, ah, all right. And then you can't sue her because then the attention's really everywhere. Well, that's why I mention things like this on podcast. It's nice to have those things just out the other. and so, you know, they're out of the way. Yeah.

Do you go to the doctor a lot? Are you a guy that goes, you're sort of a hypochondriac? Are you worried you see a mole? I see a mole like on my leg. I'm like, oh, that's weird. That wasn't there before. No, I don't think I overly go. I go a few times a year to the doctor.

I try to get a physical and what type of stuff. But my mother used to go to the doctor every week. Every week she had a standing appointment for the doctor. She'd go every Thursday, even if she had nothing wrong with it. She was just like, she was like a rusty old car that they kept on tinkering with and just kept it on the road. And she would go in and, you know, and so I think, I think because of that, I've, I've purposely made myself not a hypercontract where I go, you don't want to live your life like that constantly worrying. So maybe I don't worry enough about my health. You know, my mother did that too, but my mother, even to this day, it's like she's going, like someone just died.

she's like I'm getting my mamma grand michael i'm just so scared just will you pray for me i'm just really i'm like mom and i got for years i would kind of you know console her and go hey you know it's going to be great your boobs your breast you're going to be everything's going to be fine you know and then now i'm like mom fuck off we do this every time it's because the one time i yell at her it's fucking something horrible is going to happen but she's always hypochondriac so i think i develop some of that and now i'm backtracked and i'm sort of like hey i went to the dentist once this year. That's enough. I'm brushing my teeth. I'm going to the doctor. I'm going to get a prostate exam. I got my first prostate exam at 48. Probably should have got a little earlier.

You know, I didn't like it once a year, man, or whatever. I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to go to the doctor all the time. My mother used to go every Christmas. She used to, she used, my mother has passed away, but like before she passed away. Every Christmas, she went, she went, this will be our last Christmas together. We had about 10 years of this. I don't think I'll be around for the next Christmas. Okay. And then like maybe 15 years ago,

I got a phone call at the Edinburgh Festival and I get a phone call from my dad saying, your mum's not well. And then mum was there saying that she may not make it through the night. I had the family doctor say, oh, no, she might not make it through the night. you know and uh uh i was like oh no and so i i canceled all my shows and i got the plane and i flew for 24 hours and not knowing because you couldn't turn your phone or not knowing what was

going to happen i flew from 24 hours from london to sydney stopping off in hong kong and then i got there and i rushed from the from the airport into a cab and i get to the hospital she's sitting up right on the ipad oh there's nothing wrong with her they're bloody The doctor goes to me, you go, oh, a spirit's really picked up when she heard you were coming. So when she was dying, when she was dying, and I was here in America when that happened, they bring me up going, oh, she's got about 48 hours. And I went, are you sure? It's a long flight.

Because I've done this before. Did you give her grief when you saw her when she was alive where you're like, oh, yeah, there was definitely, I definitely said, next time you better be bloody dead. that I sat in economy for 24 hours. Oh, did she get upset with your humor? I mean, because you talked about your family. You talked openly about stuff. Did she ever say, I didn't do that.

She was, I mean, we talked about it in the last time you were here a long time ago. But, I mean, because she was so loving and amazing, but then she could be violent, right? Yeah, my, my mother, the best thing she ever did, the best thing she ever did for me is she never complained about any job. jokes I made about her. It was, it was unbelievable because she was such a strict parent and then, you know, especially having, especially having a comic like me as your son, it could be a stressful thing. You know, someone who talks about, you know, like having sex with women, taking drugs and then tells nasty stories about their child and that type of stuff. It can't be fun for a parent to watch. Do you think her friends, like imagine like she was just with her friends, you're not

around and one of her friends is like what's her name what was her name caroline caroline is he wrong about that is it true is it true and she's like well she scoff like no no i've had family members who have stopped talking to my parents for not not for a long amount of time but you know six months or whatever stopped because there's dumb shit that i said on stage and she never said anything about it like this is the reason i don't hang out with caroline oh yeah yeah no no there's a few people like you should be ashamed of your son's like i told the story about my grandmother i told a story about my grandmother and one of my uncles were very upset about it what was it what was it i'm not going to tell it because the family's back together if i tell it again if i tell it again i'll get

more trouble that was like a big sticking point the story was only partly true you know i embellished it for stage purposes and oh god the pull out from that come on i'm not joe rogan it's not like a million and people are going to listen to it. Yeah, you're not Joe Rogan. None of us are. He's the biggest man in, uh, he's got to be bigger than Howard Stern now, right? Oh, yeah. I mean, look, he's, he's done it forever.

People think, oh, you know, this guy, this guy's been busting his ass for years, man, with the stand-up with the WWE, with all that shit and the podcast for, you know, now all of a sudden the pandemic, I'm glad I was pre-pandemic. I was doing this podcast before any of this hit. And all of a sudden, the pandemic hit and everything, and every fucking actor out there. I'm looking at people and like, you have a podcast?

You have a billion dollars. You don't, what are you doing? Well, I, I, which brings me to, I started a podcast in the pandemic. I know, but you, yeah, but you, but listen, you've also had talk shows. You've had, I've had a few podcasts before, but this one's called, I don't know about that,

and it's about, it's not guest-related, we have guests on specialists, and what we do is we pick a subject every episode, and then I say everything I know about it. I don't know about the subject before we go in. I say everything I know about this particular subject and then the guy that the expert will correct me on what I've got wrong. It's basically what life was like before the internet.

When you were in a bar and you met someone and they just told you things and you had to believe that they were telling the truth. I love it. I watched it. And if they're not telling the truth, you just go, I don't know about that and you walk away. You know, I saw one with Jay Leno and it was hilarious because you were like, I don't know a lot about calls or whatever.

And you're like, you know, it's like, how many calls you have? I was over it. He's like, oh, 190. 100. And you're like, do you drive them every, do you drive them all, each one a year? And he's like, yeah. And you're like, you're a lawyer.

There's not enough days in the year for you to drive all these calls. And you guys started going, it was fucking hilarious. Yeah, Jay was, Jay was a good sport. That's the problem with podcast days. Like, Jay Leno rang me up to congratulate me on my, on my, Oh, where you've gone? On my special, he said, oh, I just, hey, I just watched your special. I can't do the impersonation, right?

And then you do that thing. That's the problem with podcasting. You can lose a lot of friends because it's like being a person who sells Amway products. You know what I mean? It's like, it's like, oh, hey, why are you there? Do you want to do my podcast? You're just bothering people all the time. Part of the reason why I just wanted to have professors so that I didn't have to bother comedians

with asking them all the time. I would come on. If I'm big enough, if you want me to come on, I'd come on any time, come on. Well, what would be your specialty? I don't know. I'd think about it.

Hallville? What? Smallville? Would you do smallville? Is that big enough? Is that my specialty, Smallville? Yeah, that's what you know more about. Well, I know a lot about horror movies.

Oh, horror movies. There you go. Is that boring, though? Is that boring, talk? That's a good one. That's a good one, horror movies. 80s music. 80s cheesy rock.

70s light rock. 80s music? You like music from the 80s. 70s and 80s, but I'll go one further. I go like, I mean, I'll listen to some air supply. I'll listen to some Glenn Fry. You know, are you going to stay with the one who loves you? I'm a 60s and 90s. All right, 90s too. I love the 90s. I like a little 90s cheese. Come on. I'm Edie Brickell. Yeah, I'm a, I like, I like your Nevada and your and your oasis. And I like, I like all. I found it the other day I was reading something. Do you know that Canada only discovered that they had diamonds in the 1990s?

That's the most Canadian thing ever. Like in the 1990s, they didn't know until they, like they're one of the biggest diamond producers in the world, right? I was watching a documentary and they found out the 1990s that they had. That means that like when they found diamonds in the background, Wonderwall could have been playing. you know what I mean like oh look I just found this sparkly rock I better get home and find out what's happened with Russ and Rachel even more so if they discovered diamonds a lot earlier maybe the dollar the US dollar wouldn't be double of what theirs is maybe be evener they'd be Jesus the 90s that that's good I like that I'm also the opinion with music I don't want any more music I don't want any more new stuff coming in I agree with you i've got enough songs i don't need any more songs once you know the lyrics about 2,000 songs that's you done you don't need any more songs everybody just needs 2,000 songs they like and that's all the music that anyone should ever want you know what we are fucking parents because

i honestly almost can't name five songs from 1999 to now i couldn't name but i'm not kidding like i'm not saying there's not some good songs but the 60s 70s 80s 90s 90s 90s maybe a little at least you could differentiate you could say boom this is where we are this way it feels like everybody's got a beard and tight pants now and uh top hats and it's like the Amish are making

music I love the Amish they're not going to listen it's not going to bother the last new band I got into the last new band that I bought albums for is the killers and when was that that was about 2005 all right yeah that was the last new band

I really got into maybe 2000 maybe 2000 around then yeah no is the music just worse is honestly or are we just the same thing as our parents were I'm just set my way I'm just an old man who's just like you're bloody kids with your loud rock and roll and just stupid things you know I'm the equivalent of like our grandparents when the Beatles came out just listening to frank Sinatra going what is this garbage it sounds like noise it's loud yeah what are you honestly what what you know because I honestly, when I'm in the car, I listen to Ambrosia, 10CC, the Hollies, Chicago to just chill me out where other people need loud. I need something that's calming.

What do you listen to? I listen to the Beatles and Crowded House in my car. Dude, I love Crowded House. I love Crowded House. What was that song? What was the one song that I loved? What's the one song that you love? Well, the one song, it was their big song.

It was kind of a love song. song. What the, hey now, hey now. Yeah. Cream it's over. That was a big song. There is freedom within. The Ariada Grande and your Miley Cyrus did a duet of that.

And I remember like liking it and then going, oh, nobody, nobody better know about this. I had to listen to it in private, my car. I wouldn't turn it on with someone else. Because I got a Tesla, it has a channel. So I had an Ariara Grande and Miley Cyrus channel. And I was like, oh, God, how do you delete this thing? I had to put in other channels. to make it go to the bottom of the list.

You seem like someone who wouldn't care about what people thought, and that's what you do? You know, you've got to, there's some, some things. I have the limits. Ariana Grande. That's your limit. I got to, no one can see this. Yeah, my brother went and saw Taylor Swift in concert a couple of times.

I like her. With his daughter. And then I think he secretly became a fan because he went so many times with his daughters. These things can sneak up on you When you're like, oh no, I like this music now You know what? I'm not taking back what I said But I think that if we probably gave some things a chance

We might like them Of course we would But it's also it's like I don't need it though I've got enough songs I'm sure there has to be good music coming out But it's like what's the point of it And also the songs don't

All music is related to happier times in your life, right? So when you're young and you're out and you're trying to meet girls in nightclubs and stuff like that, that song resonated. And when you graduated college, that was the music, but all the parties that you listen to. And when you,

you know what I mean, I don't have any big events anymore. I don't want to remember any of this. I don't need songs. Dude, I sort of got Jim, I know it's layman's terms and it seems very simple to what he's just said. but it's it just hit me that's exactly what it is if i think of uh metallica's black album

i think i'm on the third at 13th street living with my buddies in a little shithole we're paying a hundred bucks we're having a keg party we're charging everybody three dollars from milwaukee's best and we're going to make enough money to go to murrays the next morning to have a grill cheese sandwich and my friend takes my roommate takes the black album out and goes i go what are you doing man people are enjoying us we already listen to it i go put it back in put the metallica bat and he's got he's got a he's got a cup of beer and i've got a pitcher and he looks at me and he's just like no we're not fucking playing metallic people are tired of hearing i go the party's is starting it's a new album play play it and i just throws the fucking beer in my face and i'm like you motherfucker

and i throw a pitcher a beer in his face he didn't know i had a pitcher and we're just standing there we've never raised our voices with each other and we're about to fight each other And my other roommate comes up and goes, what the fuck are you doing? Your friends! It's Metallica! And then we put the Metallica back in for one more play of the whole album, and that was it. But I remember certain, you're right, certain moments in my life were happiness and, like, true by Spandau Ballet playing at Emil Camacho's house and we're dancing.

And now I think about, like, music, and I'm like, well, I'm sort of depressed, anxious. I don't know what's happening. We're in a pandemic. I don't want to remember the song. No, you don't want to remember this song. Nobody hears it, you know, like even when you have it like a kid, the music, the modern music at the time isn't that. You're always playing them songs that you know so you can sing to them and stuff like that.

I feel like everything stops when you have a child as well. So when you become a parent, you don't buy new clothes anymore. You just, that's the outfit you're wearing. That's the day it stops. Like my father still wears a baby blue pair of shorts that have pockets on the front of them and they have a belt. buckle where the belt's also blue. I wear shorts and a t-shirt every day.

I have no class. Quarantine. I mean, underwear. Are you in underwear right now? I'm just sitting in underwear and a t-shirt in me, in my screen and room. Holding me, holding me phone because my computer, Wi-Fi wasn't working properly. I had a whole thing set up. Inside of you is brought to you by Rocket Money.

Four specials on Netflix. I have one special on HBO, one that was on Showtime. one that was on epics

and one that I independently made so I got I got eight specials all up Jesus Christ and you have and you have another show that they're developing called Jeffreys is that still in development? Well it got put on hold

we were one week out from filming with the sets were built and the cast was cast and this just shows the lack of power of the human brain I was a multi-game sitcom so I'd learned the script like I was like just reading it every day like I want to be prepared I don't want to show up and be an idiot because you know also that thing being a comedian and working with someone like you who's a real actor we always get very like oh we don't want to look stupid you know I know I can be funny on film but I don't want to seem unprofessional so and I don't really know what the protocol is so I try to overstudy you know what I'm about to do and and so I was practicing and practicing and practicing and reading it every night and then like about a week ago I was like, hey, maybe the show will get, you know, the show isn't canceled. It might happen

tomorrow. It might happen in six months or whatever. So I went, oh, maybe I should practice some of the lines, you know, couldn't remember one of them, all gone. I have to start from scratch. I did that back in February and now my brain just went, oh, we don't need that information, just flipped it out. That's why it's like, what is the point of going to college and studying for four years you don't remember anything or you don't one remembers any everyone only remembers enough stuff for the exam and then they do it and then it's over it doesn't like like a doctor isn't going oh i remember in second year of med school in a third lesson what to do here it's trial and error could you do me a scene from smallville right now could you remember

oh fuck no no no way now the only thing i could do is because fans asked me to say it is can you say i am the villain of the story and i go i am the the villain of the story. Thank you. I was watching the office the other day and Dwight, quote, Smallville. Oh, yeah. He did Lex Luthor or something, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He said that, yeah.

He was on the podcast. I loved him. He was awesome. He's very far. The office has become my show I have on in the background when I'm doing things. I think I watch it every day. Yeah, it's a great show. I watch that and cheers every day.

They took cheers away. This is the problem with me I'm getting about my TV shows the same way I have about my music I don't need new TV shows I know all the good ones I've got cheers I've got all on the family

I'll tell you how you know you're going old the channels that I watch on TV advertise negative mortgages and life alert necklaces all day to me I must be a fucking old man they're like all the adverts I watch go

have you fallen and can't get up And I'm like, oh, no. Sorry, that's my grandmother trying to call me. Maybe she's falling and she can't get up. That would not be, that wouldn't be funny. I was going to say funny. That wouldn't be funny. That wouldn't be funny.

A coincidence. And I'd remember this moment. And it, you know, when you're talking about memorizing lines and stuff, do you get sort of anxious when you're learning lines? Because you did, like, you've done shows. You had your own show legit, which people loved and it got canceled. But, like, you know, I remember it bummed you out. But you've, you study musical theater.

You've done things. It's like, yeah, I, I, legit. I was really proud of legit, and I would have liked to have done, that's the only, that's the thing in my career out of everything. Like the Jim Jeffrey show got canceled, that was fine. And, you know, I've had other setbacks and stuff like that. But that's the only thing that I still feel a little bit pissy about is the cancellation legit, because it was moved to FXX, which,

and then they were like, oh, the ratings aren't great. And you're like, yeah, you move this to FXX, and it's up in the sports channels and we had no lead-in and we had nothing after me. Our lead-in was repeats of mad about you, right? Like, what the fuck was meant to happen, right? And so I feel like that show has gained an audience

since it was canceled. I get people right to me every day saying they like that show and I really would have liked to have finished off that storyline and every now and again I think about like making a little movie or something just to wrap it all up. Do it. Do it. Listen, now listen. You love doing it.

You love a story. It's personal story. It's characters you know. Characters you grew up with. You have a disabled friend in it. It's original. And it's dark. And I think if you love something, it's like, how much would it cost if you shot another 10 episodes yourself?

I'll fucking do it. Yeah, that's true. I can shoot it myself and put it on YouTube or something. Yeah. The problem is if I leave it too long, we have a character that's terminally ill. He should be dead by now. not not in the fictional world yeah yeah that's true

you're picking up right where you left off and maybe it looks older but people get it well another idea I'd be thinking because you know you listen to those podcasts that are like the scrubs one and the office ones where they go over each episode I'm thinking of doing one of those legit I don't care if only 100 people

listen to the podcast as long as those people are enjoying it you know what I mean like I was thinking you're getting me damn backward roll and DJ Qualls and doing each episode legit and then if it was popular enough. My plan is because I wrote half the scripts already

for season three that never happened. I still have them, right? And so I was thinking of doing a radio play to wrap up some of the storylines. You should. Yeah, yeah. Why not? Yeah, you do it with like a sound effect guy,

like part of the door for any. Foley, Foley guy, or yeah, exactly. Like an old war of the worlds. What was it back in the day when they did that radio show? Was it World? That War of the Worlds. War of the World's?

North Stream Wells did War of the Worlds, and people thought it was an actual news broadcast. Right. Because we've had dummies since the dawn of time. It's not just now. You know, when you put something on the internet, you go, look at this idiot, and it's like, no, they've always been around idiots.

Hey, do you, how often do you go on stage unprepared? Yeah, so what happens is I, quite often. About once, for about three months every two years, I go out, after I bring out a special, I retire all that material and then I'm starting fresh and I have a vague idea of what I might do but the material isn't embedded in my head yet

and so I go out knowing that I have to talk for an hour and a half and I think I have about five minutes of conversation and I just hope for the best. And it's like it's very nerve-wracking because you could be playing in front of thousands of people and you're like, all right, I'm going to give it a go and I never write anything down. I've never written a joke down

So I have no logbook of what I've done. So some people put like a little set list on the floor or something so they can go and check it. And so before quarantine happened, I just had a new show and I had done it about 10 times and I was really liking it because I recorded the special and I was ready to go and I tried it out in clubs and I got up and running.

Same thing now. It's been so long. I don't know what that set was. I know that I talked a long time about the Australian bushfires. that was a lot it feels like a lifetime ago but that was February Australia was on fire you remember that yeah yeah I remember I donated I remember it being horrifying and now you don't even think of that it's so feels like it's years ago yeah it feels like that's yeah he worries about that we lost like two

thirds of the koalas unbelievable uh all right listen this is called shit talk and this is all my patrons who support the podcast they get to ask some questions so it's rapid fire you just fucking nail it just go whatever you want you want to answer it Emily asked What's your favorite place you've traveled for work? My favorite place to travel for work is, I love London. I love, I'm going to London for gigs. I get excited to go to London for gigs. And, you know, I spent my 20s there.

So I have, you know, a favorite restaurant I want to go to. And I have friends that I want to see. And I go see me soccer team, full and play. And, you know, so London's probably my favorite place to travel for it. Mike E, big fan, love your comedy. When things are better. Do you have any plans to try and do another show or make the jump into the big screen? Well, the problem, I've had opportunities to have small parts and films.

You know, I've been offered small parts in films here and there. But, you know, I think people think when you do a movie, you get paid millions of dollars. And a few people do, but most people don't, right? And so whenever I get offered these jobs, they're always just like it's like it's next month. And it's very hard if you're a Turing comic to cancel all your live shows to be able to do it. So I've never been able to do it. If I had some spare time and there was a movie, I would do it for peanuts. I'd love to the experience, but I never had the spare time.

Would you do a horror movie? I'm not a fan of horror movies, but of course I'd do a horror movie. All right, when I do. I would like to do a drama, but my problem with dramas is this is I've done a few dramatic scenes. And they make you really unhappy afterwards. If you have to cry on the screen, you're really sad afterwards. And in comedy, they go, cut, and then everyone starts laughing. Well, hang on.

There's different ways to approach it. Like, thank God, as crazy as I am, I was able to, people would joke because I would be goofing and farting and laughing and ever telling jokes and holding court and the crew's laugh. And then we're rolling. Michael, we're rolling camera here and action. And all of a sudden, I'd jump in and I'd be serious. I couldn't stay serious all the time.

I've talked about it. But so I was able to just get in and get out. couldn't stay into that. I was able to get out of that pretty easily. I couldn't because I would have just probably died. So you have a tough time. Do you ever work with actors who don't get out of character who do the voice all day at lunch and all that those stuff? I've, you know, yeah, I've had people where actors, and you got to respect it, but like, you know, first you start to think, you know, your ego, it's like, wait a minute, they don't like me. Is it me? They don't like me? Why are they such a, are they being an asshole? I remember John Glover who played my father

on the show great actor one couple tony's worked with everybody the pilot episode man he was just very just like oh okay and i'm like fuck i got to work with this guy for 10 years or whatever and um i was like shit man i don't think he likes me and then of course after the pilot we talked and i'm like i thought you didn't like me he's like no i was just really nervous i was just really in my own head i was trying to do my so it's never about you it's always about everybody's got their own method so if no one like i like to joke and if it bothers some other actor he should probably fuck off and go sit somewhere or i'll go away so just it's a respect thing but i don't know man if i i try i can't stay sad fuck unless here's the thing if you have to continue being sad in

other scenes you don't want to go go up and like you want to kind of stay in a moment if it's if you have to do it again right away right i don't know fuck yeah it's a nerve-wracking job the old acting in the sense that i i i'd like it it probably to being an athlete where you don't want the other actors thinking your shit or the weak link in the team and it's like and being a comic I'm always like oh god I'm not a trained actor I'm always I'm way more nervous acting than I am doing comedy I'm terrified when I go to do act see I and you said that before you hinted about that dude and I'm thinking I I do the same when I was doing I wanted to do stand up I was like fuck I've always wanted to do stand up people

you know, Harland and a bunch of my committee, Nick Swartz, and they were telling me, do stand-up, just do it. I'm like, I'm terrified. And I'm more terrified because I'm, I have done, I've had success. Like, in other words, I wouldn't be as scared if I, nobody cared or knew me or anything. But to get up on stage with, like, guys like you or Swartson or Joe Rogan, I'm putting myself with the lions. And I'm like, how could I possibly succeed here?

And it was so terrifying that everybody was like, dude, fuck everybody else. Do your, whatever you think's funny, say it. And they may go, oh, that's fucking amateur hour. Yeah, you got to start somewhere. Just keep doing your shit. And it's hard. So I think for me, it was important to hear that to go, hey, man, I'm doing this for me. I mean, fuck, I'm going to go up there.

I'm not going to think about what they think about me. So when you're acting, you can't think, oh, I'm acting with some guy who's been acting for 20 years. I'm just a comedian. I got to impress him or I got to. I think you got it. You went to, like, fucking theater school, whatever. You could do the shit. I'm really looking forward to.

Hopefully we make this show Jeffries. I'm really looking forward to doing a multi-cam. I think I'll enjoy very much. First of all, I'm playing myself, so that's always easier, right? But I think I'll really enjoy acting in front of a live studio audience if we can. Because that was the first thing they said to us when the COVID happened. They said, oh, the show's still happening, but there won't be a studio audience. And I was like, fuck.

And I remember, like, I wasn't arguing, but I was like sort of pleading. I was like, well, what if we bring in our? friends and they sign a release form and they all get tested yeah you know what I mean jimmy you have a hundred friends yeah well exactly all you need is 30 people in there just to know if the jokes are working and one guy who laughs in anything ha ha ha ha ha well also the thing with the old uh people always go with it like the multi-gum sitcoms they go oh the canned laughter it's not can it's real laughter people are there watching and laughing it's real yeah but Sometimes you're like, how are they laughing at that?

Nine times out of ten, I'm like, how is that fucking funny? I've been on sitcoms, and when you were like, it's the best. I'm like, you know, I'm like, sorry if I jump in like you. Everybody does that because you have a cool accent. Everybody tries to do you. So all of a sudden, when I'm like, I'm like, shut the fuck up. Just do, me, shut the fuck up. So when I was, I've done a couple.

I did two years on a sitcom, another one year in a sitcom, a pilot, two pilots. And I didn't like it. I didn't like it because it always changed. and up till Thursday and then Friday they're throwing new shit at you and I'm like fuck I got to learn all these things and I don't know what and it's it's nerve-wracking like learning things on the fly I liked in pasta I thought that was good thanks dude it was but it wasn't a sitcom wasn't live audience that wasn't live audience but it was funny thanks man I loved it you know and one of those things is like it went two years and got good reviews it's like legit right and then all of a sudden they cancel it and you're like well last the two years it's not like I got canceled after a pilot or one season it made two so you kind of just got to look at the bright side things man because you could definitely go like fuck why and they were like well we're skewing towards females i'm like all right let it go well i when they when they canceled the jim jeffrey show to begin with i was like her because like my ratings were okay and it's like i guess people don't want to watch me on t i was like a bit down for a couple of weeks you know and then and then what happened was

then what happened was like comedy central basically just fired all their executives and everything and now the show the channel is basically the daily show and South Park is all they sort of kept and they got rid of all other shows and I was like

oh well I won't take it personally that they got rid of everything right see that's different they did yeah they just got rid of us so thanks for bringing that out Lisa H says what are your thoughts

in the current influx of TikTokers and YouTubers getting Netflix specials and recognition as comedians off a short bit being uploaded to social media yeah I try not to be a bitter old

man about things like that like oh these kids today on their tic-tucking and they're all the it's not for me i don't get it i don't get they're this mouthing along with other there's a lot of tic-tops of my stand-up of people doing my stand-up in their car you know what i mean and i don't quite get it but if if people are watching it if they're making millions there's got to be competition right there's got to be a lot like with being saying oh these YouTubers these influences they're doing something because millions of people watch you And so you've got to give them credit. And they're prolific.

They're bringing out the clip every week and lots of other stuff. I don't go on social media very much for a couple of reasons. The first reason I don't go on is I'm not a big fan of social media. And I think I'm also a big believer that sort of people in the limelight or whatever, there should be a bit of mystique around you. And people should watch whatever your art is rather than watch you. You know, that's what I think, right? and you know

I find nothing worse than watching an actor who insta story is 20 things long for a day I just go like what the fuck are we doing it right but that's just me but also there's probably an amount that I don't want to go on social media because I don't want to put myself out there and put something out that I think's funny and then people are like well this isn't funny

you know what I mean so I'd rather just leave it alone and do my stand-up and so I think it's very ballsy to be a prolific tick tocker or YouTuber. There must be some skill there. So just because it's not for me, it doesn't mean that it shouldn't happen. Chris, F, do you think having a child

has changed how you do stand-up? Yeah, of course. It changed how I did stand-up in the sense that I talk about him a lot on stage. Also, also, I am conscious of being as much of

a douchebag as I was on stage because my son might watch it. But then there's the other argument that all the old standup pretty already exists. So, you know, I assume at one stage you'll be embarrassed of me. He might be proud of me, but he also might be embarrassed on me. How old is he? Sevens. Have you ever sat down with him and go, look, this is who your dad is? I don't recommend doing some of the things I've done, but I'm not going to lie to you.

I'm going to be very honest with you. Or is he just too young to even talk about that stuff? He's too young for that, but I will have. that talk and I prepare that talk in my head on a daily basis. Will you be sober? Well, you reckon I'm going to be racking up in front of him? No, I didn't think...

I got a belt around my arm and a spoon. Give me a drunk Jim Jeffries. How would you, a drunk Jim Jeffries sound? Well, this is a thing. I know you're not a drunk man. I don't you know, a drink. You don't, people have this perception because you talk about things on stage. So... I still have the... I gave up drinking for a long time

and I still have the occasional drink now in quarantine. I don't drink when I work. anymore. I don't drink on stage any longer and I don't drink if I'm working on a TV show anymore because I used to do that whilst I was doing that and that wasn't good for me. Now I do it occasionally

but the problem I have is I think I mumble naturally anyway and I think because of the accent sometimes I'll do a show stone sober and then afterwards a review will be like he was drunk as fuck and you're like

no I wasn't I just You know, and I've been, I've been for auditions where, where my representatives have been like, he showed up drunk. And I'm like, no, it's just, I'm just Australian. So I don't know. That's hilarious. Maybe my voice has a bit of damage in it from the past, still. Maybe. All right.

Dude, this has been awesome. So what's going on right now? What could people watch? What do you want people to watch? What are you looking forward to? Well, watch, watch my podcast. Apart from that, my stand-up special. intolerant is now out on Netflix and apart from that uh I you know I watched the morning show

on Apple I enjoyed that I suggest people watch that that was my favorite show of the year nice and you're like you're keeping busy you're honestly like if you if you're not busy is is there's a darkness come out do you feel like anxious do you get depressed what I have learned from quarantine is that I think I'm going to be well prepared for retirement I think I'm going be all right with it. You know, a lot of people in the entertainment industry, but they worry that they'll be forgotten. And I think I wouldn't mind that. I think that'll be

okay. You know what? If you truly believe that, that's actually a really good thing to feel and be, if you're honest with yourself, because honestly, if you could say, you know, I really don't care if people remember me. I really don't care if I didn't have any impact. I really don't. Well, I

tried me best and I I've made a lot of people laugh and, you know, over the years. And if it all fades away, I'm used to, you know, like the thing with Joan Rivers, right up until she died was just like, if there's no dates in the diary, you'll be forgotten, you'll be forgotten. And I'm like, that must have been a very stressful way to live. She was in her 80s worried she was going to be forgotten. And it's like, just relax. And you know what I mean?

Just you've made some money. Sit back and enjoy it. And what does it matter? Think about it. I mean, when you're gone, when we die, it doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter. And the people who like you will like you and they'll get to watch it, the footage will always be there.

And, you know, and the people who don't like you, hopefully they don't spend that much time worrying about how much they don't like you. I'm amazed by the haters in this world that put so much energy into hate. It's like, there's bands and there's comedians and there's things that I don't like. And what I do is I don't watch them. so easy so why get on and harass you if you don't like you yeah yeah exactly you know it's like why are you why are you here you see that all the time you like i hate this music well don't go see them play in concert at the hollywood ball i'm not going to see him i don't know i think people

get bored they just want to hate they want to express themselves why are you watching a youtube clip of an artist you don't like so weird it is weird dude i love this man i love having you on and uh honestly if you ever need a guest let me know all right mate thanks for having me another fun episode i hope you guys enjoyed that uh if you don't know jim check out his specials it just makes me laugh i love i just love that story about his mother how you know when i was like the shit that he would do on stage and he got he would get himself in trouble and the family would all be like well what's this i just i just think it's so funny and then like you know uh his mom wouldn't say anything to him she's like you know i did this so i'm allowing you to do

this and I just find it kind of fascinating I go well tell one of those stories he's like no no mate no no it's a shit storm about but he's a lot of fun he got a little personal the last time and I wouldn't say he's an open book he likes to joke and laugh but

you know trying to get a little serious isn't as easy sometimes with certain people you know but you know I could tell when we talked about his you know drinking and I'm like you know obviously talk about it on stage and all this stuff you tell he was a little sensitive you know i was like well i don't mean you're you do that now

you know i'm too fucking old i got all this stuff going on you know i and i totally buy that i just i i think i thought he was uh he thought i was insinuating that you're you're a drunk you're a i was like no no i'm not saying that i'm saying you know you talk about that you had this persona and uh i just don't think he wants to get offered cocaine on the street anymore yeah that was a boy yeah he wants a coat might no yeah i've had that that we've all had people come up and say you want some coke.
