Three, two, one. Welcome back to another episode of Men at Work. I'm Kyle Pegg. It is always joined by Matt Peebles. We are back on the couch, and we are here with Brendan Donaghan from South Jersey Bad Boys. You've seen him at the New York Comedy Club, Pars Casino, Next in Line Comedy, Punchline, Helium, Silver Metal Helium.

Oh, yeah. And know what? Next year, we're turning that bitch into gold dude oh i'm not doing it again next year that was daddy's last year all right never mind never mind yeah we're having a it's gonna be a buffet it's gonna be a bit of like a mufasa simba situation where the brendan just died and uh i'm little simba and i'm you know rolling over his dead body and I'm going, did you win? Did you win Philly's funniest?

And he'll look at me through the clouds and say, you need to write more. And I'm kind of getting nervous about the fact of who Scar is shaping up to be. So we might actually. And I just can't wait to be gay. And I just can't wait to get booked here once every couple of months. Dude, you're not going back? No, fuck no. What? Yeah, I'm not doing it. I've here once every couple months. Dude, you're not going back? No, fuck no. What?

Yeah, I'm not doing it. I've decided. I've said it before. I really mean it this time, though. I'm not doing it. The one judge, this actually gave me the validation. The one judge told me, he goes, if you do this again, I'm going to be pissed. Oh, shit.

Oh, my God. So I'm not doing it. What about the other seven judges that were there? Who cares? All I needed was one to tell me, hey, you don't need to do this anymore. Yeah, the other seven were like, did you go go up and that's why you didn't win we we can cut this but as a guy who watched it from a thousand yard lens they really do have to like kind of like repurpose it and everything i don't think we need a bunch of open micers growing up i think we could actually probably do like the

the more the comics who are like more like you know they get spots at helium and stuff i think you guys should automatically get a first round buy to the second round or maybe even the third round or there should be only like two or three that's how new york comic club they did a similar competition and they just specifically invited like 20 comics and they just did like a smaller version i'm like yeah that's how it should yeah it's just it's just it feels like more like a participation trophy and it's it's it actually is bad for the audience And they sell these tickets out to people It's a money grab If I'm watching 13 comics And I can only pick 3

And 2 of them might be good in the first round Why do this? That's the thing Strategically you just gotta get out of that first round Was it always like that? Also the first round is all based on Ranking from Audience votes And a lot of people stuff about it Yeah. Also, the first round, it's all based on applause. No, all rankings from audience votes.

Audience votes. And a lot of people stuff about it. Yeah. So that's why you got to get past the first couple rounds and get to the judges. Yeah, because I feel like some people get knocked down in the first round. If I want advice, I'll ask Tata. Are you listening yeah the whole contest is something uh oh good i like the contest you're going back next year

i am all right i'll be there i was gonna say if you didn't i was gonna walk you down like i was your dad we're going to baseball practice yeah Yeah, no. You got to do it. That's what it took. I mean, Gab told me after that my girlfriend said that she was like, you're never allowed to do this again. The anxiety and all this is too much. And then recently things have been going good and stand up. She's like, do it one more year. Come on, get back out there.

I'm not going until you make it to at least the third round. I don't believe that, but I hear you. No, I'm not going to the first round. Maybe second, but I'm not going to the first round. That's pretty fair. Yeah. I'm telling you, man, it's brutal it's brutal especially they have some like during the week sometimes and it's like a tuesday night i think that was yours tuesday night yeah that was the toughest part is losing on a tuesday and then going to work the next day what'd you do man what'd you do how was that last night you told you tell one

co-worker yeah i didn't you went okay i did five minutes and seven seconds and i think i lost points but you guys don't really get what that's all about man yeah it's just like you know smart golf it's like no you know know the rules know the parameters but yeah true can't play out of bounds that's what i'm saying you have to go retee up dude that's what i'm screaming from the back but you're screaming from the back screaming from the front okay why don't you walk that one through? Yo. Hello, Kyle. What are you doing?

Nothing. Sitting here watching the game, smoking some Thrive. Are you all alone? Who's that? Yo, pick up the phone. What the hell? What the hell? Yo, Cheeto, pick up the phone. What's up? Yo, Cheeto, pick up the phone.

Yo. What's up? What you doing, son? Nothing. Just chilling. Killing. True. True.

You guys get picked up by the drones yet? Yeah, I think I'm over the whole drone thing. Thank you. I think I know what it is and I don't care about it. Are you a drone guy? Well, I've got some footage. Sure. I'm seeing them. I'm not joking. Got some video in my backyard. Did you post? I did post it.

Unlike a neighborhood watcher. Not doing great. Everyone's like, it's a plane um but i've seen at least three of them i haven't seen one have you seen any man i don't look at my windows no people will be like they're outside and it's like it's like when they tell you like hey there's a comet coming it only comes once every 40 years and i'm like i'm not looking at it yeah i'm not going out of my way to go outside and look at it if i hear about the drones i'll just like i'll take your word for it or i could just see tons of footage the next day on like tiktok and instagram i am desensitized desensitized enough where i don't care what bothers me is just like the uh the government being like no fucking clue

man i have no idea it's so fake they absolutely know dude but i don't think they do no i think they definitely know what i what i read about i think they know i think they they know layman's terms about what's going on, but isn't all this stuff happening right down the street from a naval base, like a top secret naval base? Yeah, they're hovering over tons of, I think there's like two or three military bases in Jersey. Oh, so I wonder who's doing it. Right.

The military is doing it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And what I read was it's just like a data collection thing. And you guys have the most populous state in the country, apparently. Oh, yeah country oh yeah that's what i'm saying that it bothers me so much that they're like look we can assure you that it's not a threat that being said we have no idea what they are right you're like what are you talking about yeah you're gaslighting the entire country especially

that's the funniest way to word anything is to be like i don't know what it is but i'm sure it's not a threat yeah but don't you think it would be, like, if the military, like, wanted to, or someone wanted to, like, threaten the population, would they do it just so, so much in our faces? Yeah. I think so. Yeah, everything in our faces. Yeah, the one that, like, we should be worried about isn't just a bunch of ones that, like, we can look up in the sky and see. The ones we should be worried about are the ones that we don't even know about. Yeah, yeah.

Right. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I agree with that. That's also suspicious that they're going, like like we don't know what they are um i wouldn't shoot them down do not shoot them down for sure these are definitely yours that just makes me want to shoot them down more i never thought about that trust me we're gonna look into it i wouldn't shoot him down and guys quit throwing rocks at him like just let him they're fine up there dude my yeah yeah sorry my i know when it uh when it jumped the shark is when the um we got a a meme of the guy from

remember the guy in uh kobe doing his dick out on the porn star with his dick out on the uh on the bed and it went all the way around the big black dude oh Oh, of course. Yeah. Someone, someone put that on a drone. Yeah. And I was like, all right, I actually posted it on my Instagram. I was like, that got me.

By the way, my buddies posted it in our group chat and they go, dude, just saw a drone. And I'm like, I've been seeing them guys. I zoom in. It's the dude's day.

That's when you know it's over. When a meme from 24 years ago from 2020 is like, is going around and your dad and your dad sending it all as group chats. That's when you know, like this is all jump the shark. That's actually a good way to put it too. Cause I think that's the same way with like clothes, like things that are cool as clothing.

As soon as there's like dupes at like pay less, you're like, I think we've probably run our course. Although I mean, I, sorry, I was just gonna say how fast it goes through the cycle too, where it's like drones,

which is a crazy thing. We have no idea what they are. It'll be irrelevant in a couple of weeks. I mean, they just stopped talking about it. They literally just told us they're like, by the way, there's aliens in the ocean.

Oh my God, what's up there, dude. It's like, yeah, that feels like a little bit of an obvious distraction. I'm done with aliens. There are so much more cooler conspiracy theories out there.

They've already told us that aliens are real. We've seen them. We have them. They're in area 51. Yeah. Can we just bypass aliens and stop with like all this? Like you, I don't know if you heard about

this the most sinister thing involving a drone out there right now is some dude in new jersey was hooking up um dipods to a drone and just dropping them in people's pools to turn them green and yellow and now he's getting indicted by a grand jury what that's the most sinister thing of all time could you imagine crazy poor father he's getting yelled at by his bitch wife his kids are screaming all over the place just wants to go out in the pool like tony soprano and wait around he comes out he thinks it's all algae with green and yellow all over wow that's got to be oh that's the closest you can get to domestic violence where she's like go skim the pool and he's like yeah i'll go skim the fucking pool that i didn't want

that you told me to get for the kids and never touched the pool he's skimming it out there and it's like neon green so now he's got to call the you know he's got to call the guy for the pool he's got to pay two thousand dollars all because this dude is attaching tie-dye pods right and drop him that is sinister that's brutal but i mean we're worried about the fucking drones three thousand feet up in the air we got it we already got our problems in our own backyard our literal own backyard yeah i think that's right the craziest theory i've heard uh is that we lost a nuke and that that they are ours and that's why they're not saying anything and that they're searching for it which is so scary that's horrific guys like how do you you gotta know where the nukes is i left it on the counter like like phone the nukes is. I left it on the counter. Like phone while it nukes.

Before I leave the house. And like, that should be even better. Like go an incognito where it's like, don't shoot them down. They're going door to door. You're like, have you seen like a,

like a huge metal? It's not like, I don't want to say close. It's glowing. Has your hair been falling out? Yeah. And you're growing an extra leg or anything? It hasn't been cool.

Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool.

Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Cool. Why do you ask? Oh, we're just,

uh, sorry. I'm getting a call. Sorry. I'm going through a tunnel. It's like you're standing an extra leg or anything? Oh, it hasn't been cool, cool, cool, cool. No, no, no. Why do you ask? Oh, we're just, sorry, I'm getting a call. Sorry, I'm going through a tunnel. It's like you're standing right in front of it. And then they just mend and black your ass. Yeah. Fucking slip your memory. Oh, that's a good one, though. I've heard a blue phenom conspiracy or something like that.

I've seen that. Where the elites are trying to- Project Bluebeam. Project Bluebeam. Yeah. Which sounds fucking cool. Pretty cool. Now, tell me more about Project Bluebeam.

Well, it's better than fucking Michelle Obama. Remember when she was trying to do fucking Project project green bean she was trying to make us eat good at lunch that shit sucked dude then i think the food companies were like hey shut up bitch about that and she was like we should start walking 10 minutes a day yeah but all she did was just bring the attention i was like do you ever think it's weird that you buy produce at the store and there's 14 ingredients in it and we're like shut up and let us eat fruit loops now rfk is coming in fruit loops are for gay guys he is fighting an uphill battle that guy that guy's yeah he's been fighting a bit of a butt uphill battle most of his life everybody he's loved is assassinated and then they ripped his

vocal cords out and he's like what if i made you guys eat better and they're like look at this fuck yeah this guy's such an ass this guy's an insane person because hey i just think we should stop poisoning our kids and like shut the fuck up imagine dude if he got his voice box screwed up and then he just went totally labonics talking like when he realized he was losing the voice he was like let me just make a switch like if everything's changing this abruptly god damn how do you fit that in those jeans? R.F.O.K. Yeah, that's going to be tough, dirty talk. Yeah, that's brutal.

Well, that's the way. I think Carol, yeah, Cheryl Hines. Smack my ass. I would never smack your ass. I'm going to be interpreted as domestic abuse. So I'll hit her from the back and I'll keep my hands above my head. That's a decent R.F. Kissel, dude. Not bad, huh?

Yeah. Decent. All that being said, dude. We're impression guys now. We are impressionists. We got one each. I envy you guys. Throw them on the board.

Mine's a little Nicky. That's the only one I got. Nah, you got some good ones. You just never break them out. I can't do any either. But if you do sit down and work on one, you can figure it out if you really practice. But it's like, who has the fucking time? Yeah.

That's true. Yeah. Kyle just at his house doing little Nicky's fiance. It's like, what are you doing? That's what it is. Your's a big that I'll just add his house to a little Nikki's fiance. It's like what are you doing? That's what it is Your wife can only deal with so much she can watch you do your little skits and do your little stand-up shows when she walks Out there and it's midnight. You've had four Miller lights and you're like I'm drinking This guy is drinking a mill lights you're having sex. She takes her shirt off. Whoa, whoa.

Look at those milkers. Get her to sew that. But my final drone thought, and I'm sure you all agree, TikTok's getting banned and I think this is the Chinese companies trying to get as much footage as they can before they can't be in the US anymore. It's all just TikTok drones. But we know their

technology is only balloons. That's all they're capable of well they had balloons last year and they thought that was too much fun they knew balloons was going to be too much fun they put it out there and they're like we're going to make it look like the house from up and then everybody's like that's fun that's cute now they're just straight jones they shot down the china balloon somebody popped it yeah and you're gonna expect us now not to not to shoot down 10 foot bus looking things another thing that's the craziest yeah so like that we had a balloon,

they go, Oh, we got, you know, shot it down immediately. All of these mysterious shows. We have no idea what they are. And they're like,

we, you know, we're not going to touch them. Yeah. It's confusing. It's insane. Dude. I know a couple of people who had conversations with their significant others being like,

should we leave the state? Like legit conversations. People are nervous, dude. What the fuck is there to be nervous about? There's just drones above a naval base. Yeah. Right. They are also, I don What the fuck is there to be nervous about? There's just drones above a naval base. Yeah, right. They are also above...

I don't understand. How can you be this worried about a drone? Yeah, but they keep saying they're SUV-sized, and they did always say in the future we'll have flying cars, and maybe this is the closest we're getting. They're finally showing off their wares. They're going to send those bitches over to Russia or Ukraine, and they're just going to fucking blow up on Russians.

I'm not going to. There's nothing to look at in Russia. There's nothing that you need to take. They're just gonna, or Ukraine, and they're just gonna fucking blow up on Russians. I'm not gonna, there's nothing to look at in Russia. There's nothing that you need to take. They're testing out technology. That's what they're doing. They're scanning all of us.

They're getting our data and everything. Not sound, of course, because why would they do that? Yeah, true. And then they're gonna send the boys, they're gonna send these

over to Ukraine and they're gonna navigate through Russia and find out, you know, where they got a bomb and everything and that's what's going to happen. Yeah.

I had a similar. You guys hate that because it's just someone using common sense. Well, that's too. Yeah, we can't do common sense. We're too far past. Yeah. You ever accidentally walk into like a racist statement that you didn't mean for it to be that way?

No, go ahead. Sure. I was talking to. Story of my life. I'll take her home and use a slur. RIP, RIP, Rur. R.I.P. R.I.P. R.I.P.

Oh, shit. Yeah, I forgot. Cool. Dude, what happened to him? He went one direction. Hello, folks. I can't let you guys have all the fun. My God.

You guys are firing on a wavelength that I can't even keep up with. No, stop it. God damn, he's quick and tall. I've had that one in the back pocket for a month. I've already seen somebody say it. I'm just waiting for the time I can drop that. That was beautiful. I was trying to think of another One Direction song that I could do a pun off of, but I couldn't think of it.

Satellite by Harry Styles. Drones. Anyway, I'm sorry. Yeah, but his solo career is way different, dude. Yeah, sorry about that, guys. I'm just usually, I should be on the air right now. You know, people say I look like Harry Styles retarded brother Gary Styles. Who says that ever to you?

Sorry. that's not a good segue anyway well well all right my grander point here's a bit that's not that funny but it did happen i was talking to my brother-in-law and we were talking about like the stuff with china and i was like why don't we just send like andrew yang there to go talk to them and he was like where's andrew yang from and i was like, where's Andrew Yang from? And I was like, oh, yeah. Okay. And he didn't even mean it. I was like, what was your thought process there? Like, we need a translator? Yang could probably talk to these guys.

He probably speaks their language. He's like the whitest Asian guy ever. It was so funny that you were like thinking like, you're trying to go through all the Chinese guys that were in the politics and you're like, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. Andrew Yang. Andrew Yang. Who do we got?

You post something, they'll take it down for, like, the most ridiculous thing, but the comments are still allowed to be so mean. like yeah i don't understand the guy i was talking about you're definitely more like a unfunny ron weasley uh he was funny oh yeah so you're saying i'm not yeah okay weasley was hysterical dude well it wasn't that good but i'm serious coming from kind of relied off a lot of this dynamic between him and harry ever compete with the dog i got called weas the whole time growing up. What were you like Dobby? He's fucking back. Well, he pretty much saves the day.

I was just watching HP last night. Not a big deal. Well, I hope we don't end up like him, dude. Yeah. Getting stabbed in the chest. Saving his friends. Would have loved that, dude. Bellatrix the Strange from Harry Potter.

My first real thorough crush. Yeah. First movie crush. Yeah. What was it about her? British, scary, unkept looking. Big tits. The only bazoongas that are showed in HP. Yeah.

Yeah, I think that's probably right. They don't show a cleavage anywhere else in the series. Dude, McGonagall, man. They should have blasted McGonagall. True, she would have been way better off if they showed some ta-ta. There's no way when you transform back from a cat to a person, there's not a little bit of a slip. They're doing a reboot.

You know that? Yeah. I don't like that at all. What do you think about that? I don't like that either. I'm excited. Really? I would love to see the Harry Potter world in a longer series, like a Game of Thrones

style. It's drawn out. Because then you can get into all the details of everything. Yeah, I guess so. But I just talked about it. It's like they can only do so much in the movies because you know it's two and a half hours long so they leave out all the stuff in the book if you do a series i love a series dude you can who do you want to do an expose on cho chang or chang cho whatever name no forget her his name is andrew yang

she sucks she's a traitor but just like they leave out all this stuff in in the books that they could get into yeah but that just feels like i don't like the biggest losers alive dude you don't want more harry potter have you seen the fantastic beasts uh they stink isn't that called the view come on guys it's it's basically what you're asking for you're asking for you know no those are it's a movie right it's totally different from the harry potter i think it's like the same world granted i haven't seen the full thing but like i took a glimpse and i said this is it ain't the same yeah it's like watching like xfl when like anna felt when the nfl is over you try to watch the xfl in the springtime it's just this isn't the same so i

was his gay lover. Yeah, his main his main adversary. Did she have to do that? Did she have to just sprinkle that on the That was a weird move. And she got like detailed with it. Like, just that was a weird yeah and she got like

detailed with it like i think she was tweeting out she was like by the way i forgot to include this dumbledore was getting railed in the fucking ass yeah i'm not even joking i think she legitimately was saying stuff like that but to be fair it was butterbeers and die gone now she really never had to tell anybody i've actually been thinking about this harry potter i've watched like four of the movies recently it was kind of clear he was gay that he was the only person dressed like that in the entire series everybody else was wearing like a sweater vest and pants or they'd wear a suit and then he was wearing like your mom's old furniture as his wardrobe in the world you knock knock get the fuck off you're the most powerful wizard in the world you would wear whatever you could we russell westbrook shows up the games and like assless chaps and he's true and he's one of the

greatest point guards of all time oh that's i wouldn't have heard that but i just when people were like sorry dumbledore didn't fall he fell off too he did he fell off hogwarts he totally did true he could use yeah and he totally was grooming harry to just get fucking murdered sorry i was watching he was the last movie last night he did he was grooming harry yeah dude i'll tell you what you get home from a bar late night and you go on youtube.com and you search up snape's memories reactions you sit and watch dude you enjoy that really just people watching that for the first time dude so i was watching it night. The best Snape thing that he says in the movie, I don't know if you guys remember this,

but the actor, what's his name? Alan Rickman? He's fucking incredible. I laugh every, like, he's incredible. Greatest bad guy of all time. He does this one part where he goes, and I can't do the accent, so. Now try it.

He goes, all the students will be treated equally yeah dude like who that's on the script and they go alan just say equally like just just say equally like you don't have to draw it out that much he goes like i'm gonna i'm gonna try something here so you shall be treated it was totally his choice. Yeah. What a choice, dude. I love the choice. Alan, we'll do it one more time.

Just hit equally like a normal beat. Yeah, maybe a little bit faster. Equally. He talked the same way in Die Hard. Equally. Yeah, right, right, right. In Die Hard, he had the same exact monotone voice. I love it.

He spread everything out. Yeah, which is kind of funny that he keeps doing it at home. It's just John McCain, Alan. McCain. John McCain, Alan. McCain. John McCain. It's like he's drunk and having a stroke and he's like, Between every word that starts with a vowel

and ends with a consonant, he remembers that he left his oven on at home. He's like, Which, by the way, Jackie Chan's in the background like, not as easy as it looks. That is great dude My god The way some of this Watch it back

And wait for that part You will laugh so fucking hard It's such a good line He Quite a nigga He does it I think that Now that I'm thinking about it

He hits those a lot Like at that scene Where they reveal it He says like Obviously Yeah Obviously And then he even says

When he's During those Snape memories says when he's during those Snape memories things where he's like, you kept him alive to die at the proper moment. The proper moment to be slaughtered.

His words look like a fucking EKG machine where you just see the bumps randomly throughout. I love, it just makes it, it makes such a dull line so much more interesting.

Right. They shall be treated equally. They shall be treated. And look, as a fellow thespian, I can totally see where he's coming from, man. You know, I had to make some creative choices this past week. Yeah, what kind of notes were you getting? Oh, no notes for me. Was that during Flippy Flops?

What was that, Brendan? Shut the fuck up, dude. What the fuck, dude? No, actually, that was the worst part, is actually getting for real notes during Flippy flippy flop we want you to sound like a scumbag a little more and i was like okay let me see if i can do it i can do it i can get there i can get there at least you got a credit on one of these yeah true well the uh my newest thespian endeavor dude i was an extra oh dude i want to hear about the backpack background of uh tires shane gill show on netflix and uh my largest takeaway outside of it being very cool like obviously i did nothing i was no

part of it is watching other extras not have that realization and it's the hack stuff that you hear about where it's like an extra who like they tell you just stand there when he says this you react and every you know the the trope is like the extra is like whoa come on yeah nice it's like hey a little less of that that is for real how these people are oh wow they went drama club there was they told us and it's so funny like the one scene where we just had to we sat there and they're like be silent and look forward and one of the guys took that as like i'll laugh every time the other guy talks so like we're supposed to be totally silent the guy's like he's like hey silent right we're not even you don't have to do anything with the pa saying stuff like the director saying something like hey we have microphones you guys and we're gonna use

your audio so you have to be quiet wow so the guy's like all right i'll clap then like still a noise oh my god yeah it was unbelievable that was like can you give us any general outline of like what the scene was or would that be too i don't think so it's a way uh they're supposed to be like i think it's just like there's a basically we're at like it's almost like an espn event and we're watching a uh a comedian who's playing as a famous athlete and we're like reacting to a scene that happens during that so all we have to do is just like they say there's three no he can't give anything away i don't know did you sign an nda no yeah so yeah ron white yeah legendary ron white the guy the man of all time dude he had two of my favorite

stories he was uh we were all sitting there waiting it was 20 degrees outside and they told us it had the scene was technically supposed to be framed in spring so no winter jackets nothing like that so we're sitting there and just like a light like vintage nascar jacket freezing our balls off oh you probably loved it i got a question about that yeah oh yeah when they gave me the jacket i was like this is so goddamn gas but uh so that we're sitting there and we're freezing dude and he goes oh well i'd like to tell you i appreciate y'all coming out here but uh i never asked any of you to come but uh it's nice nonetheless and then he was sitting there and he um we had

hand warmers and the one guy he says i don't need this anymore anybody want this and one of the psychos next to me who of course had neck tattoos had neck tattoos and they had to take him back to do makeup and i was like you're not an extra you're looking to do this yeah uh he goes i'll take it i'll sell it on ebay so he takes it and he wipes it on his balls and he throws it at the guy he goes here you go still worth nothing you're the man dude you're the coolest guy of all time but uh yeah that was just like sitting there and it is the same thing you hear about just like hurry up and wait where the entire day it's like all right we have to be here by 3 30 and then we're gonna go sit there for an hour and then at that point we have to be here by 4 45 and then we are not gonna move for

an hour it's so much waiting oh my god dude for like the tiniest scene of something i mean we got a couple we got a couple uh one guy an extra in a in a series and one guy a lead main character the lead commercial yeah that's true that although that was the best experience i've i've ever had and i haven't done much but that they had me up first they got me in and out i did my part in like 20 minutes and then they're like you can hang around if you want you could leave like everything else is like you're waiting around all fucking day but i got in there i was the first up thank god and it was like the the easiest most fun work i've done that was pretty sweet you play a scummy banker better than most people thank you man i think i was born to play it yeah you know dude so i was auditioning for uh a couple

roles for tires and the one role was and it's not giving anything away but it was like i was a dude in a nascar like a big nascar fan and i was supposed to like fake uh serve somebody where i'm like oh shit is that so and so blah blah blah and then he's like yeah and then i'm like you've been served that was what that probably was your oh it's definitely the same exact thing yeah was it i didn't have that part but you were part of that same scene anybody we know that did that part because i obviously didn't get i'm pretty sure they're rap shooting no we just did like the one that i filmed was just a very quick it was a 10 second scene and it was just us reacting to like

something happening on the panel that the same guy that probably you're supposed to be serving to. I was hoping so bad I was going to get that. It would have been just like one line, but it would have been awesome. And that's the thing too is like being an extra, you're watching the people in front of us were reacting to actual actors and an actual comedian. And I can't in my head that, you know, it was a single line and then rest improv for 10 seconds. I'm such a dumbass that like I would watch what the actor would do, and I'm like, I wouldn't have done that. I don't think your character would take it that way,

but whatever, dude thing. You walk out from the frame, you're like, can I give you a couple notes? Mickey, you're staying in the back. Can I give you a couple notes? A couple tags for you. Look, you're stiff, buddy. You're so stiff.

It's like, well, yeah, it's 21 degrees outside, and I'm in pain in a suit. I'm like, all right, I can totally see that, but you signed up for this. Damn. Yeah, it was cool. It was one of that, but you signed up for this. Yeah. Yeah. It was cool. It was very,

it was one of the cooler experiences I've had doing this. Yeah. But nothing will come of it. Nothing will change in my career, but that's a, to your point, it is cool to just like be on set and see those guys work. Like I just,

I love seeing that they're shooting their own show, dude. Um, and like, you just to see how it works, like see me keyword direct, seeing how they're putting it together. Like it's just awesome, dude. Yeah. I mean, it was, how it works like seeing me kiefer direct seeing how they're putting together like it's just awesome dude yeah i mean it was and it's also seeing a crew

you don't realize how many people are on the set for one scene and how much technology ever dude it is how is anybody unemployed yeah i think if you have a tripod and a couple cameras vito you should be making seven figures dude i don I don't know. You guys should all be loaded. Why are you here the way they have some of these production crews? I have no idea what they... A lot of them just kind of stand around and just kind of look a little intimidating. It is kind of funny how Vito was drinking like beers with Jason Kelsey two, three

weeks ago and now he's just sitting in your guest room. That's right. What a gorgeous evolution. How did that happen? You're on a beer commercial, right evolution how did that happen commercial right damn that's awesome garage beer commercial i was a production assistant on the set and uh it was like right before he went on monday football a few days before he wore the same outfit on monday football it was funny really but uh um but yeah it was cool garage beer it was at some lady's house in brew mall or havertown

actually and uh yeah after we were done uh we had some garage beers together i had a had a margarita with him so you get loose pretty quick though you start flirting with him a little bit no i made sure i got out of there before i got too uh too horny oh yeah you know like vito like can like handle all his liquor you give him a couple beers, he'll suck a dick. Really? Hey, can we pass Vito a couple beers over here? Hey, man, get this out of your hand. Pause.

Damn, dude, I, um. Get tall as a bee. I, I am so desperately looking for a scenario where I get, like, you know, by, close to Jason Kelsey where I can have a couple beers with him. Did you guys, did he come to the lookalike thing? No, no he didn't there's six other guys that look like i'm nikki yeah that's why every time he looked around you're like oh my god he's here and it's like nah it's just another fat guy from westchester that's not quite him i've auditioned for a couple commercials uh with him too that i have not gotten really like dude that'd be so fucking

i think he would interact with you too i think if you were actually on the set with him he would actually give you what i'm saying dude i like, if I get close to this guy, I'm going to work my way in to become friends. Plus it's one of those things where he's technically entering your world. You know, like you're, he's entering my world and probably my butt hole. If I have anything to say about it.

Yeah, I think he'd let her, Kylie could watch if she needs to. And he's going to go, who's the man? I'm not like quite following. Who the what what was that we want to make sure you get more auditions yeah yeah i did say i don't know if we can include all this but i do think that should be the slogan for garage beer to add to uh like my experience like being a production assistant though on these

sets you're at the bottom of the total poll so like if jason kelsey needed a fucking hoagie that's what i was gonna go do go get him yeah i had to go to the link that day and grab some equipment like i'm basically the production assistant so i'm this is productions bitch but uh to put it that way it's still a good experience and uh you get around the right people and that's how you you know get in that door but um like i can't like be my complete self around jason kelsey in that scenario i was even fortunate i could have beers and margarita with him but like i couldn't tell him i couldita with them but like i couldn't tell i could not tell my instagram i couldn't tell them like yeah i can't yeah i'm working for somebody else i gotta keep it professional i'm someone else's employee in that case i gotta basically

i gotta keep it pretty like minute i gotta be like hey man this is cool i can't really be like this is what i'll do and this is this and this is that so like but it's cool to get to interact you're interacting with every single person on set oh yeah i'm making, and that is like basically it's all about who you know. I've gotten a lot of opportunities this past year, and I plan on getting more. Hopefully, I'm doing more productions. Yeah. As you saw, there's a lot of people that go into the work, so they need them. I mean, and I get asked to do commercials.

I get asked to do movie stuff. You should just open up your Venmo and just show it and be like, give what you can. Well, it seems like a lot of people started out as a PA. They'll pay you. $100 million on an Amazon deal. That's a lot of money. You don't need all that money, do you, Mr. Kelsey? But yeah, that's all I was trying to say.

Like, I heard you say, like, oh, if I can get in front of that guy, like, you know, befriend him. But like, I couldn't really try to befriend him. I could just kind of do what I could. I'm just happy for the experience and hope I'm in front of him again. Yeah, man. Yeah. Well, then it's tough sometimes. You're in, you know, to your point, you got to be professional and i could just kind of do what i could and just i'm just happy for the experience and hope i'm in front of him again so yeah man yeah well then it's tough sometimes you're in you know to your point you got to be professional and you're like i'm not gonna i don't want to annoy this guy i don't want to you know you guys must be hilarious when you get around like big time comedians and stuff because you want to you want to prove like that you're just like a guy guy

and like not be like hey i do like you but i also want to just be like a normal dude that like well that that's my yeah i i kind of shut down sometimes because i'm so afraid of being annoying yeah i don't want to be overbearing and i think a lot of comedians are where they're like you know you have been around enough where it's like they're always on and have to be like the loudest motherfucker in the room i am not that guy like i actually and i'm not that guy when i like when i'm done doing like the man on the street shit like i just want to go home and just like not talk to anybody yeah yeah i think it's just you're in that situation i mean brandon and i actually just opened for somebody in uh at helium and i was counting how much we both were talking not that i was worried that you were going to talk

too much i was more so worried of like let me not monopolize i'll throw in a quick little thing and then i'll just keep laughing what he says and then brandon hopefully says something and it becomes like part of a conversation i just try to take their lead. If they seem like they're open to talking and whatever, then it's like, all right, great. Like, yeah, we can. But so often like you'll get in there and the guys or girls just super quiet. You could tell the guy, you know, and, you know, they just don't really feel like chat. I get it.

You know, they do it all the time. Different cities, different openers, different annoying people they don't know. But then some people like I worked with Jeff Dye, the coolest motherfucker I've ever met. Dude, he just like came in immediately, was talking to everybody as if we all started comedy together. Yeah. Like he didn't talk above you like he was more successful than you. He's just like he was like, hey, I'm throwing out the first pitch tomorrow. He's like, why don't you come with us to the Phillies game?

Didn't wind up working out because he had like some sort of thing where it didn't happen, but he's throwing out like a bunch of first pitches. But like was nice enough to just invite me. He was one of the coolest dudes I've ever worked with. Crouch dude, guy's fucking funny. So I had, I mean, I had, I opened for Mark Norman forever ago. And this is how much you're in it we're like you're maybe you're not selling out in the way where you're just

constantly trying to make them laugh or make them think you're one of those cool guys to hang out with but if anybody so basically what happened is i'm sitting in the green room and my way to break the tensions and i'm like hey we have a white claws my buddy's got white claws if you want and he's like nah i'm okay i'm okay so right before he goes on i think he was like i just want to have a drink on stage because he was going over new shit so i think he wanted to be able to grab the drink look at his list and then go back into the set. So he goes, hey, I'll take you to one of those white calls if you don't mind. So then I'm like frantically texting the girl I'm dating at the time, like bring back a white call to the green room right now.

Come back here quick. So she comes back and she comes in with a white call. And I guess he can't turn it off. He goes, who's this pale bitch? Jesus Christ. I was like, yeah, who is this man? She gives it to me. I give it to him. I get a text get a text what was that about i'm like i'm about to go on i can't talk to you right now that's so did you really say that that's so maybe i shouldn't include that that he said that

but he did yeah dude that is awesome no that's fucking hilarious you're not with her anymore she's probably because she was pale shit yeah well that was a big fight on the way home that's about an hour and 20 home in traffic when you're sitting when you're sitting those brake lights in front of you but she's like so you're just never gonna defend me and it's like i uh he's the headliner i mean truly yeah right i mean you're a pale bitch that's what that was my whole defense is i'm like how do you think i've lived like this i don't care about that at all yeah so funny so funny. Yeah. Damn. Maybe not pale bitch, but it's something,

I think it actually might have been. Fuck, I wish I had a story. I don't, I feel like your guys' stories are so much better. What are you talking about? You've definitely run into way bigger people than we have.

No, honestly, no, because like, you've probably met Jason Kelsey. I've not met Jason Kelsey. I'm trying to think off the top of my head, who's the... You definitely met

a bunch of Eagles alumni. Yeah, I mean, my coolest story is probably, I was in the, well, I actually, I interviewed Jason Kelsey, but that was like in a scrum. But no, my coolest one is probably Big Dom. Like me and Big Dom are kind of cool. Oh, that's cool. And like he's just the absolute man.

Yeah. But like I was in the back of Jason Kelsey's Seattle event just with like all the Eagles and stuff. That's fucking badass. And I like ran over fletcher cox's girlfriend i thought he was gonna kill me but i didn't see her and then i almost ran into kylie kelsey literally two seconds later so i so at one point i just like walked over to the side and was just like thank god i found big dom because we could just shoot the shit yeah dude i saw the the barstool guys shout at you that was pretty cool pretty cool that was really cool that

that you kind of forget how big those guys are because when people start contacting you being like yeah you just got a shout out and it's like your phone's blowing up it's like wow would have they ever cut it off i felt bad you cut it off right before they started talking about me right after too yeah yeah some pale co-host that pale bitch that he's always with too would have they ever tried to recruit you nah i mean i've talked to roan roan was the only guy i've ever dm'd with back and forth being like hey i'd really really really really really be interested in it and it kind of just went nowhere i sent him a reel and it just never got never got i'm so surprised that they haven't already i feel like that could very much happen well i think i think uh who did it the best was was mook he was a philly guy yeah from what i

heard was he was just making clips for a couple of the anus guys and they're like all right these are fucking good why don't you come on and now he went from production like everybody who's a producer wants to go into in front of the camera and stuff and now he's doing shit in front of the camera he's got a pretty successful live show that he that he streams uh weekly and stuff so he's killing it that's kind of how you do it i mean i might i i'm getting up there in age so like i might just have to start emailing everybody and if they don't do that then maybe there's like a barstool idol or something although i think you're you're doing it the right way where it's like you're building your own thing which is

like your portfolio essentially and they're going to see like this guy's already doing it himself which is why they shouted you out and eventually i feel like that's how people get recruited where they're like this guy's like doing something pretty good already why don't we just bring he's already doing it yeah but i i just i think they're in a totally different uh wavelength right now where they have all those guys and everything and i think they're looking more to people who are like standalone podcasters kind of like their caller dad he's kind of like that brie girl kind of like you know part of my take and all those things like they want to they at the end of the day they have to make money right right and it's the funnel thing where it's like

20 of the people there make the money the other 80 make it you know or have jobs because those 20 but like if you were doing like if they could have a piece of like the content you're doing for crossing broad for like barstool philly i would i would say that seems like such a layup just it does seem like a layup like just boots on the ground stuff if fox 29 or cbs3 wants to go on during the playoff times like hawk merch and everything you already have like good numbers that you get for that and then you combine that with like Barstool,

Barstool Philly who needs that good content. Yeah, I mean, who knows. Not to sell you away from your podcast. I was going to say, this is just openly talking about.

Well, I guess it's more Crossing Broad related. We'll do Zoom pods. Look, if you're on Barstool i'll do whatever you want to do no uh yeah well yeah well i guess we can't no quite talk about i'm actually i'm shocked that they haven't already tried to recruit you but i feel like that could that could definitely happen yeah i mean it'd be hilarious me and my fiance are about to get married be like hey we gotta you know we have to move to New York or Chicago.

We'll be back to see the wedding venue next October. They don't have like a thing in Philly for like the Philly guys? They do, but it's mostly just social media and stuff. Yeah. Like I think some of the Philly guys who are from around here, they would do some content, but it's nothing that like what I do and stuff. And honestly, like. Would you ever move to New York?

I'd probably prefer Chicago if we're being honest. yeah i i wouldn't blame you yeah yeah that's where that's your fucking stinks to live there yeah i'd love to be up there for you know comedy reasons yeah i'm a big 48 hour new york guy 48 hour in la guy chicago's the tits i would hate it during the winter time though it would be a nightmare i can't even imagine how horrifically you gotta come with me well yeah well i mean don't ride coattails, maybe. Yeah. But speaking of the, you talked about the one Brianna. You guys are both Zach Bryan complete loser dorks.

Are you a Zach Bryan fan? Yeah. This guy does not understand how good he is. Well, I don't like the way, I don't personally like the way he treats women, but what were you saying about the music? I'm sure that's great. Yeah, because Drake's just always been great to women. That's true.

He raises them from a young age. He's a father figure. He's strong, independent women. Yep. Yeah, he was my number one, not even bragging my uh i would yeah i would not he was my number one of my apple music because i didn't do spotify my apple music uh oh you're one of those guys he's number one of my spotify wrapped dude just can tell dude can dude can write a song man can he though yes he can i think he just you know what he does he picks out every word and then it feels like he googles flowery synonym he's a poet and he just says like regular like i went to the store

while me and my girlfriend were fighting he's like hit the market on the way back from the long drive my girl the love of my life i want to make her my way using every every country song you're literally he's different he does he's different he's different. He does too. He's different, dude. You sound like a battered wife now. You're Brianna Chicken Fry. Okay, let's just steal everybody's dialect

from Canada and just make another song about it to revitalize our career when it was going nowhere. Who do you mean? Drake. He's inaccurate.

You keep making these two one-to-ones, dude. He does the patois. He does the dance club music because he took it from some Jamaican guy in Canada. Then he goes down to Atlanta to get a street cred up to go hang out with 21 Savage and Little Baby and everything. This guy, he's a marketing guy.

He was on Degrassi, dude. He's wheelchair Jimmy. You're so young and dumb and naive, dude. Yeah, I'm jacked, too. But I was... I just... Look, the music's not that good and then you find out that he's a bad dude on top of it well separate the artist from the from the person yeah i did i hate the art somebody the person even somebody synopsized what what the

scoop is with the brianna chicken fry stuff so he was just like piece of shit he's just a piece of shit yeah he's a piece of shit yeah he's just a piece of shit. He's a piece of shit. Yeah. And he probably, allegedly, might have physically abused her. Oh, really? We don't know. I haven't dug into any of the details. I'll just, like, see some TikToks where it's like he would, like, their friends would be sitting out at, like, a campfire. That's the one thing I can't defend. And he'd come out and be like, just drunkenly, like, scream at her friends.

I'm like, this guy does sound like a psycho. Yeah. Can you imagine? drunkenly like scream at her friends I'm like this guy does sound like a psycho because we all had that friend of a friend like the boyfriend or the girlfriend of a friend where it's like this person sucks they're coming to the camp it was pretty disappointing to hear some of that stuff because you're like well that's probably true

we all have that friend and you know what we separate the music from that person as well well I separated my friendship from a lot of those guys who acted like that I mean i just think like stand up guy but then and again i'm this is in no way blaming her or anything but like every guy like that does need a girl to sign up to be the whole like hold his face like this isn't you baby listen this is not you right now okay so like they kind of are made his thing right he needs and wants that but i love i love that everyone's like oh dude she turned down the millions that he offered her for the nda and i'm

like dude she is a podcaster who has a huge following you think she's not going to capitalize on the fact that she can make so much more money just being like fuck your nda i'm going to talk about this and everyone's gonna they probably gave her the youtube money that they were going to make off the podcast or the next three episodes. She's getting a kickback. There's a reason why she didn't take the $12 million. I'm sure the rich owner, Dave Portnoy, is going to give her a kickback. Yeah, it's like that old phrase. Give a woman a verbally abusive relationship and she'll eat for a day.

Let her talk about it and she'll live for the rest of her life. Is that Ecclesiastes 3.16? I believe so Yeah It was the Ephesians or whatever I actually have that tattooed On my right shoulder blade

It's so long It's hurt me to man Give it a bitch What's your tattoo say? I got that tattooed On my ribs in high school actually And I still stand by it No regrets

No regrets Dude those baby back ribs Oh god Oh Sixers are up Oh god forbid Number five Give me the scoop on the six by it. No regrets. No regrets. Dude, those baby back ribs. Sixers are up. Oh, God forbid. Number five. Give me the scoop on the Sixers. Yeah, give us a scoop on the Sixers. I'll give you guys a scoop on the Sixers.

How about that? Let's do that. I'll give you guys a scoop on the Sixers. I would like to see. You could do a little Sixers segment yourself, too. You're so clued in. You guys can have your own little Barstool Philly-esque thing. Yeah, there we go.

Yourselves. Perhaps. With Kyle's stuff that he's got going on and whatever you might be able to whip up. I bring Miller Lights. I bought Miller Lights. I bought everybody Miller Lights. That's like my favorite thing. Yeah, dude.

You supply the dog. That's right. Yeah. I didn't wear socks. You got a mustache and stuff. It's a cool look. All right. Yeah, what are we doing with it?

What are we doing with it? Brendan talks like he doesn't look like a lesbian gym teacher at all times. It's unbelievable, honestly. What? Since when? The cross track did look nice that you pulled up in. Thank you. You guys do look like the most dynamic softball coaching duo in all of South Jersey.

What the fuck did I do? I don't know if you're a softball coach. You're a little too friendly, dude. I don't know if I look like a softball coach. I played catcher for the best softball team in South Jersey. And that wasn't even softball, dude. It was probably your boyfriend. For the best women's softball team.

Yeah, dude. I'm a stocky little lesbian. So what? So what, dude? Stockholm Syndrome. What is going on with the mustache? What are we doing here? I'm trying to bring it back, and it's not going good.

It never goes good. It's one of those things where I'm in the the midst of growing out my hair i'm in the midst of growing out a mustache i think something's got to be bad how long are you going with the hair it's been four months now yeah the next like what's what's your plan what's your goal just get gorgeous i'm trying to get gorgeous you're starting to get the little pubes on the back of the neck yeah those are a little untasteful and savory but what's the vision anytime you're growing out your hair you saw a guy before where you go, I'd like to look like that.

Or you're going through something. That's what I think it is. That's what actually is exactly what the point I was trying to get to is that I am growing out a mustache and my hair and I don't feel like I'm going through something,

but I have to be. There's no way I'd react like this. It's got to be a subconscious that there's something within me that's like, I got to make drastic changes to my physical appearance. You getting a little sad

around the holidays? No, I don't think so. I think everything's going good. So I might end end up killing myself but i don't know when or why but i imagine this is like the story that builds to it it's like yeah we noticed something was off or he's like growing his hair out and yeah are you like worried about getting older and like losing like you know he's just gonna go shoot a germ losing your looks they're not going anywhere they're only getting stronger yeah because uh but no i don't know i think it's uh i think it's again it's tiktok i think i have a tiktok algorithm telling me like sexy boys have long hair and i'm

like i thought it was rap boy season i thought you had to look at rap i thought you had to look like a rap boy season might is it over i don't know rap boy season might be back chalamet's killing it pete davidson was all over philadelphia this week i saw he was at the jason kelsey thing uh he was at the j weekend. I saw he was at the Jason Kelsey thing. He was at the Jason Kelsey thing. He was at the Sixers game courtside. He was there last night for the Eagles game. He must be filming something. I wonder if he's in tires maybe. Oh, fuck. That's a good point. I know his boys

are with Shane. Because he was also in Shane was in Buccas. That's good. I wonder if that's why. I wonder if he's in tires. If he'll play like kind of like a tall nervous guy. That's not that funny. I wonder if he'll like play a guy who smokes a lot of weed. I know. I wonder if he's in tires, if he'll play like kind of like a tall, nervous guy. That's not that funny. I wonder if he'll like play a guy who smokes a lot of weed. I know.

I wonder if he'll like branch out and just kind of like talk like an old Adam Sandler in the mid-90s. Does he live with his mom? Yeah, maybe he lives with his mom. Maybe he'll do the live with the mom thing. Yeah. Talk about jerking off, dude. Yeah.

A huge Pete fan. If you have anything, I would love to work with you. Pete, for real? You have no idea what I'd do for you, dude. Yeah. I don't mean that um i did want to ask you because we were going to focus on this we're going to focus on this podcast like kind of around like what we do for a living but obviously we just went off on a tangent for like just talking and shit oh yeah by the way joined by brennan donnegan

congratulations on being a two-time sex haver by the way yes dude yeah twice and then i said twice and i'm done. Are you getting snipped? No, I just mean I'll never have sex again. Oh. Two is plenty. And I said, ew. I said, yuck.

Yeah. I got my kids and that's the only reason you do it. That's great. That's God, man. That's God's snip. I like that. Yeah. But no, man.

Congratulations. How are you guys doing it? Jesus. No, dude. I am so anti-. But no, man. How are you guys doing it? Jesus. No, dude. So this is... I am so anti-children and I'm going to have a child. Really? I'm so anti-children.

Me and my wife, we were planning... We're like, we're not going to do the kid thing. And then we accidentally got pregnant. We're like, oh, this is great. Well, that's what I'm hoping happens. Because I really... I know it's going to be a fight between me and my fiance that like... I just...

I think I'm a selfish person. I think I just spent too much time working and stuff. And don't want to be like arnold in in jingle all the way and miss my miss my boy's karate match yeah put the cookie down yeah down and so i'm just like but i know i'm gonna have i know i'm gonna have one yeah i know i'm gonna have one and then it's probably gonna end up being two and it's probably gonna end up being three right did you guys get hit with like the we just got engaged pressure like did they kind of change because it sounds like you both were in similar situations baby out of wedlock so that's how you got to do it man well i mean that's been our episode thank you so much for

joining us did you name it damien no but i was actually thinking like so i think it's gonna be so funny when like when we have children and then like 20 years from now all this stuff that we do is going to be online and everything and like i'm probably going to show my kids like all this stuff well i do think about that sometimes where i go like right now it's not that much of a thought where my son is so little but then i'm like as he gets older i'm like and he starts learning how to search youtube yeah searches my name and sees me talking the way that i talk to my friends where i go like how am i going to

handle that yeah you know like that's gonna be 70 likes on that tiktok you fuck that's more so his friends finding it and going did you hear Jack's dad is a fucking gay dude that does impressions on TikTok? Your poor son, dude, he's sitting in first grade. We didn't have that when we were growing up. We had no dads on the internet. We're going to be, like, imagine if you found out when you were growing up, your best friend's dad was like,

you know? I never actually really. Imagine if you found out when you were growing up your best friend's dad was like... I never actually really... You see the way that your dads would talk with their buddies behind closed doors in their 30s. Now we just put it online. And it's just out there for them to listen to? It's crazy. I don't think you can stomach that.

It's basically like everybody our age would be. There's no way you I don't think you can stomach that. It's the same way of like it's basically like everybody like our age would be like finding out your mom. Somebody else's mom did porn. Yeah. It's just everybody's parents are going to be like same thing. Like, oh, your dad put that out of 30 likes. Like your poor son is going to be sitting in the front of class and like faintly in the background here like, whoa, they're all watching. It's going to be so funny when your dad beats up or when you're when your son beats up a kid because he made fun of your comedy and you're gonna be like you can't do that but i'm

also kind of proud of you and i'm kind of slightly horrified that you know he's like punching some kid on the ground he's like he's actually semi-professional and he's getting close to being full-time you have no idea how long it takes to get a new york comedy club that is a tough get he just got passed thursday he's doing check spots right now, but they're letting him host more. He did 45 at the Parks Casino. It was a bad setup. It was a tough setup. He did 45.

Would you, would you let, you know, just, we can take a pause break while you try to navigate this door. Yeah, we probably need a beer refill anyways.

Yeah, dude, Matt's got to go get six more beers, dude. All right, we'll pause real quick. Well, no,

this is a good conversation. I want to fuck it up. dude. All right. We'll pause real quick. Well, no, this is a good conversation. I want to fuck it up. Yeah. All right. Anyway, would you let your kid get into like, I guess you don't have a choice for him to get into like content. I think every kid's going to get into content. But like, would you let your kid like become a comedian?

I mean, if he really, I guess my goal would be to be a good enough dad that he doesn't want to be a comedian. Okay. I mean, I had a great dad. my goal would be to be a good enough dad that he doesn't want to be a comedian okay um i mean i had a great dad i don't fully believe in that whole shtick but um if he wanted to yeah i mean whatever whatever you want to do selfishly i want to have a kid because i want to have a nepa baby yeah because i because you can either you can you can go jj abrams gracie abrams and you're open up for or you could be like okay i was like a i was like a middle act but then my kid becomes like

a headliner because they know they know more of the tricks of the trade because you've been through that you've eaten shit for many many many years and stuff i would definitely love for him not to do it just because i just think it's so hard and uh i don't know like you just have to it is like a self-torturous like um thing to to go after you know like you're just you're going through these like you're sitting in the back of these horrible shows like you're you're missing like time with friends and stuff like i i wish i didn't love to do this as much as i did sometimes uh i just you know for whatever it is like i love doing stand-up but then there's times where it's like man like i wish i was just like fully into my desk job and i was content with that

and i just you know spent time with with family and just you know that was it that was that was fine but uh i don't i i'm excited to see what he's interested in and just to steer him like whatever you're passionate about like i can't wait to just steer him into that and be like dude that's great like let's figure out how you can really like go after whatever it is like i just can't wait to encourage him to do it would have to suck if he was so unfunny yeah how would you deal with that i think i'd rather my kid never do anything than think he was like good and like being on tiktok or one of the people that i have to cringe through on my that would be tough but i think it might be even tougher of like because you're funny so like if he'll logically he will probably be funnier than you are but he'll

be funnier in like uh your dad listened to rock and then he's doing mumble rap comedy basically where you're like i don't get this at all and he's like well i have nine million followers so and you're like well it's just bullshit you gotta do it sit down set up bunch yeah it's like i just don't post i don't do the social media you know you're giving all your content away like um yeah that would be so strange man dad you just don't understand the algorithm you gotta post at 3 15 every single day you could do like the the opposite of like could do the opposite of your son wants to play basketball and you know all the money's in content by that point. In 20 years, there's going to be no more jobs.

They're just going to be making videos. He's like, Dad, I want to play basketball this year. It's like, you haven't posted in 12 hours, homo. Get on it. Come on. I feel like there's not that many people, not that many comedians, though, that have kids that are also comedians. I feel like they see them do that

shit and they're they're like this is not i do not want to do a lot of them suck wasn't richard pryor's kid he didn't really do much um i didn't even know i think so and then like a lot of bronnie james is out there i think yeah a lot of marcus jordans yeah i'm trying to think of who's like someone that is a kid of a comedian right now that's like any murphy's got like eight kids and i don't think anyone do comedy yeah well Yeah. Well, the only ones you know... One of the Waynes brothers? Yeah. Like, do they have kids that are like any good?

Well, their dad was famous. Well, their dad was and then they kind of like... No, I think that was just their dad that played their... But their uncle was also a comedian. That wasn't their real dad. You guys are thinking of John Witherspoon who played their dad on the Waynes Brothers show. Wait. Is that what you're thinking of?

Wait, the John guy... I assume there had to be a dad in the lineage. There's 18 of them that I can't keep my eye on. The John guy fucking killed his wife. John Witherspoon? No, I think he did it with a knife. In the conservatory? Oh, sorry.

This is a bit. Oh my god. I'm so embarrassed. You're so lucky we didn't get that in 1080p. Put that on my TikTok. It's 100,000 likes. Oh, that's perfect. Can we delete that?

I interrupted both of you at the same time about it. That's really pretty brutal. Oh, that's good. It's something. That's good. Yeah, I don't think there's anyone killing it whose kid is... Well, I think it's like Jerry and Ben Stiller. You only really know the famous ones. It's kind of those true well there are so many

nepokids in like hollywood it's actually kind of sickening how many people are like you could trace back to be like i didn't know kate hudson was like goldie hawn and like another dude's someone who was talking about that with sports too whether like it's becoming a lot of brownie james out there where it's like when we were growing up the people that were getting to the nba or whatever were so fucking good were these dudes that came from nothing like a lebron james or whoever who were like poor and broke and they just had this incredible grit and talent and now it's like the sons of nba stars who had all the money in the world to get them the best trainers at like age five years old yeah that are

like the ones that are it's like all their sons that are it's like carmelo anthony's kid the braun james kid shack's kid sucked yeah made a heart problem but still he sucked right well but i think and i hate to say that they i hate because i i do a lot of like hate looking up if i see an actor that i think is awful in my head i'm like i'm gonna go on their wikipedia either their parents are famous or their parents are rich and nine times out of ten you go on there you say dad was a producer or parents were both doctors there's this guy there's this guy who's a dj his name's zach bia he hangs out with drake hangs out with everybody i saw him open up for post malone he just played top 40 hits on his on his laptop and i was like why is this guy famous why is he

out hooking up with kardashians why is he all like doing all this shit and everything i look up his his uh his two parents are like doing all this shit and everything? I look up his, his, his two parents are like both like financiers in like Hollywood. Yep.

That's always what it is. Any Wikipedia that, if you see an actor you don't recognize, go on their Wikipedia. Somebody's rich or somebody's in the industry. There actually is

some of that in comedy too. Oh, there's, I mean, yeah, there's a ton, especially. I can't name names,

but it's definitely a lot of people who it's like, oh, you had the luxury of being able to not pay rent and living in New York City and getting after it there where it's definitely a lot of people who's like oh you had the luxury of being able to not pay rent and living in new york city and getting after it there where it's like julie louise drives his dad's like a billionaire legit billionaire yeah and she actually i reached

out i not reached out i saw a tiktok actually where she reached out to her a couple times she has an answer she she was talking about like what was her first purchase i think she was on snl yeah she was yeah it was like what was your first purchase and she was like a three-bedroom apartment or something like that uh in new york city and i was like oh on your snl check yeah which to this day they don't even get paid much so they make like a hundred thousand dollars and that's like new york yeah exactly which like that that does not afford you like a one bedroom in new york it really that really is i mean you look at like uh nick kroll his dad you like a one bedroom in New York. It really, it really is. I mean, you look at like a Nick Kroll, his dad is like a billionaire defense contractor.

Huge. John Mulaney's dad is the head of like one of the biggest law firms in the country. Like you start to really kind of go down the list and it's Kreischer. Yeah. Tom Segura. Really? Yeah. His dad was like a huge finance executive.

Yeah. And then they always tell you stories like, dude, during comedy, you had to grind it out. It's like the grind is not hitting an open mic three times a night while you don't have a day job the real that i look at is like waking up at five sitting in a cubicle for 10 hours getting home figuring out a time to write to write and then go into a shitty mic and then waking up the next day like

everybody that's not talked about enough and it's again it sounds it's obviously none of us work hard it's not an actual difficult thing. But that to me is more difficult. I went to school and I had friends that were theater majors. And they're like, I'm just going to go all in. I'm going to move to New York with no plan. I'm just going to go after it. I'm like, that's not the plan.

You'll be home in six months. Right. And also, that is not the difficult part to go after the thing that you absolutely love the most. It's like sitting at a desk job that you absolutely fucking hate because you have to pay the fucking bill yep because you have no other option that's that's the real shitty part but you know yeah my dad's never got me a job has your dad gotten your job before no he's dead yeah mine's too has your dad ever gotten your job met no i mean we i work at the same i mean yeah it's not gonna there's no way to explain around that was too easy yeah me and my dad both work for the federal government i just wanted to see you squirm a little bit my dad my dad had three jobs dude he he was out of work for a long time he he uh worked for a family-owned insurance company when he was younger and then he fucking left and shun in the back outside a hotel. Yeah. He's not big enough as a United Health Group.

But he left like right during 2008 as like the economy fucking collapsed. And like the economy collapses. He's out of work for like years because the only thing on his resume is like a family. Did he ever tell you where he left? He left? He left. It was just like

this guy writes for a living. He like owned it with his brothers and I think they just got to the point where they were just like dude like it's just like... This guy writes for a living. He owned it with his brothers. And I think they just got to the point where they were just like, dude, it's just like... Oh, he was one of the owners. One of the top dogs. Yeah. It was a very small... It was in Glassboro, New Jersey.

Very, very small company. Left. And he was out of work for years because he could not get a job. Did the brothers didn't hire him back? Well, I think it was just like pride and ego. I love that. The guy would rather go through turmoil than... Yeah a guy moved i love you yeah and you got three fucking kids but yeah so it's hey dad can we have dinner tonight yeah sorry nope i can't call my

brother i can't concede but then he uh he he got a different job like uh doing insurance during the day he would drive trucks at ups at night and then he worked as a security guard, like doing insurance during the day. He would drive trucks at UPS at night. And then he worked as a security guard at NFL Films on the weekends. Oh, let's go. Seven days a week, two jobs. Seven days. Never had a day off until the day he died. Dude, did he meet so many cool guys at the NFL Films?

Was he talking like John Facenda and all those guys? He would run into... Had to be Jaworski. I think he would run into Jaws sometimes he's an Eagles fan yeah oh he probably had his dick was probably so hard when he saw Jaws every I saw I one time went to an Easter in uh a jersey at one of the Jaws owned golf courses Jaws comes in I saw him at one of his golf courses before and you would have thought they saw God yeah that's oh really every dad lined up and went to go shake his hand yeah i was like

this guy lost in the super bowl like if donovan mcnab showed up nobody would get up and go shake his hand of course when wince came in no one would shake his hand but jaws dude they loved jaws i think he said he actually saw shannon sharp in there like randomly like a couple times he said he was a really cool guy yeah my dad knew somebody who like worked security there or worked in there and stuff and i got to sit behind um behind while they taped some nfl film show and stuff it was cool shit yeah yeah i don't know if you guys if your dad's it feels like dad's our dad's ages like they tell you stories when they were a kid it just sounds like decades of torture porn like it sounds like you can't believe what they're telling like my dad well i don't know if they lie or they if they do they're incredibly good my dad's friends what do

you mean about what i mean my dad would just be like yeah when i was 12 years old i watched my father die on the couch and i would have went to the hospital but i had to wake up at 4 a.m to work on the trash truck and it's like no way dude what the fuck are you talking about my dad was one of 12 kids right exactly that's my dad's big family, and they just tell you stories. Especially, you get your dad three or four drinks in, and he'll tell you something, and you're like, oh my God. My dad killed his grandmother. Hey. What?

Yeah. My dad killed his grandmother. She had a pacemaker, and then he had to go down to the hospital and get the little magnet to stop the pacemaker, so he brought it home, wiped it over her heart. Dead. Was she supposed to have the magnet go over her heart you know she told him to clean up his room and he didn't get too happy about it i'm just kidding no yeah she was she was she was on her way out she was fucking she was taking up their couch man

they're one of one of like three or four i always thought you were dead serious like that he murdered technically i think i don't Are you not hearing the same story? I think he stopped the pacemaker with the special magnet. Oh, I thought you said that as bit. It's crazy. What's the statute of limitations of her? Her father's killing their grandmother. Oh, he's dead too.

How did he die? How did he die? It could be in a litany of things, maybe 15 different things. One organ could have went, another organ could have went. Could have had a heart attack, could have had an embolism. They wanted an autopsy and we said what are we gonna do give me 500 hours to just tell us what that's what we did yeah we're not sure if it's a heart attack or maybe a aneurysm it was also during coven they go oh we're not um so he was

he was a statistic they put him they made him a statistic and they said they go we're not doing autopsies we're too backed up wow so we didn't have a choice. What an insane thing is that? And they took his fucking wedding ring. Ooh. Yeah. Damn. They pawned it? And they made $3,000 from the health insurance off him. Well, we said,

how do we get this back? And they were like, well, and they just never did. What? There was some orderly that got a nice little rent payment from that.

Oh my gosh, a Jamaican nurse made out like a bandit. We got a big ring from the white man there. What are you, Olivia Soprano? Just playing with the environment

You're not gonna believe this The porn star's like, yeah, one second I'm gonna get my expert on stealing rings from dead fathers We have a ring from an uninsured They have a no Jamaican ring policy They just bring in Chumley to breathe out of his nose That's actually Unbelievable's actually unbelievable.
