Patrick and the People - R. Scott Edwards talks about his Show Business Career in Comedy on Patrick and the People!

Episode Date: January 28, 2025

R. Scott Edwards started his first company at age 17 and at 24, in 1980, he opened Laughs Unlimited, which was just the 12th full-time comedy club in the United States at that time. He worked with comedy greats like Bob Saget, Dave Coulier, Garry Shandling, and many others, which helped him develop a successful chain of comedy clubs in Northern California. Edwards has also contributed to developing talents like Paula Poundstone, Brian Posehn, and Dana Carvey, and worked with icons such as Graham Chapman of Monty Python, Pat Paulsen, Soupy Sales, and Tommy Chong. He has produced three TV series, numerous large concerts, and thousands of live comedy shows. Currently, he shares his knowledge through books, interactive online courses, a podcast, and a video archive.

Okay, I am here with Scott Edwards and Matt. I'm very excited about this. I found out about you coming on the show a couple days ago and I've been doing a little bit of homework. Man, it's hard to give you such a simple introduction, so let me just kind of tell people that Scott has done many different things. Number one, he owned about 21 comedy clubs. He's worked with comedians from all over the planet.

He's an entrepreneur. He has produced a couple of television shows. He's just done a lot of different things. And now he helps- Just a wild and crazy guy. Well, kind of, sort of, right? So, you know, you got to tell me Scott, you know, given the number of I mean, you've you've rubbed elbows with some of the greatest

comedians who've ever graced the stage. So my question to you is, what person have you met in your illustrious career, that really just, you couldn't believe it, you're standing there talking to him going, how did this turn into my life? How did this happen? Oh, well that's a great question Patrick and thanks for having me on your podcast. Uh yeah, I've had a chance to work with some of the best. My chain of comedy clubs was called Lapse Unlimited and I opened in August of 1980. Wow. Yes, I'm old and but I was young when I started it in August of 1980.

I think I've heard his name a time or two, yeah. Yeah, and Jay Leno. But what's interesting about your question is those are guys that were at the same point in their career as I was. So they were still working up. They hadn't gotten fame and fortune. So I was their boss. There wasn't any off-struck

moment I'd have to say that being you know you have to use age as a determining factor but my father had a great sense of humor and when I had the clubs I wanted to impress him with his generation of people and so three of the people that I like to bring up their names although most of the audience have forgotten these really gems of comedy but one was Suppy Sales. Oh yeah. You may remember at his own TV show and he was famous for throwing a pie in the face of presidents and movie stars. Well I actually had a pie thrown in my face of presidents and movie stars.

Well, I actually had a high phone in my face by Sufi sales on live TV. So that's pretty impressive. I remember watching him when I was a kid and he would be on a lot of shows like Hollywood Squares and things like that. And so I knew him

through the TV circuit, not the stand up circuit, you know, Right, right. When he was kind of towards the end of his career and doing other things but he did have his own TV show for a long time. Another young comic who was a star of the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour

ran for president twice. You may remember Pat Paulson. Of course. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Paulson and I became very good friends. I actually spent time with him in his ranch in Napa but he was the guy that always ran for president as a joke on the

Smothers Brothers comedy hour. Yeah. And when he was here at my club, we there was a mayoral campaign going on. So, we ran him down to the capital. We had placards made that said, why not Paulson and and had limos. Oh, that's great. It was a great

time but I think one of the ones that was really awestruck was I'm a big Monty Python fan. Oh yeah. No, one of the best. The Holy Grail or. Yeah, absolutely. Alty Towers. Yes. Well, right before he passed, we were very lucky to have Graham Chapman. Oh, wow. Yeah.

Amazing. He's a new standard of comedy in the way you do, Patrick, but he told great stories of hanging out with the Beatles and the Rolling Stones and some of the things that he and the Monty Python group did and being a Python fan, just having them at my club, getting to hang out with them, having them on stage telling stories that were just incredible was a real honor. Yeah, they were, you know, really some of the great comedy pioneers, Monty Python, of sketch comedy and broader into movies, you know, and.

I know people in these days don't remember, but if you want your you like that British humor, which is a little more dry and more eccentric, you know, go Google Faulty Towers and watch a show or two. They were incredible. But, you know, the search for the Holy Grail movie in itself was one of a kind. they were incredible but uh uh and my parents didn't know, thankfully, because it was the first time I saw boobs. But it was a, I was watching the Benny Hill show every night, you know. Oh man. Yeah. He was always, it was a riot to me as a little kid. I thought it was the funniest thing in the world and I was probably, I don't know, 10, 11, 12 and but he always had, you know, kind of lascivious things and he was a real man, he was You know, unfortunately, yeah, no, I mean, those two things together are spectacular.

You know what I mean? So you say, you know, you worked with Dave and Jerry. So some of these guys, you know, coming up young, um, you know, what, what was a young Jerry Seinfeld like before he had made it? Was he as competent and as, you know, the same type of persona? How did he come across when he came to your door? Well, what's interesting about Jerry and the same could be said for Jay Leno, uh, How did he come across when he But I would say Jerry in particular was the adamant professional. He always looked nice on stage. You know, there was none of that, you know, casual Friday showing up in a t-shirt.

He gave the audience who were paying to see him a professional look. He also wrote every day. He was, he loves writing comedy and he was prolific at it. And what's interesting about Jerry, and if you ever remember it, some of his early material, it was so relatable. For example, his first hit on the Johnny Carson show, he told a joke about what's with men's pajamas, you know, they got cuffs in a, in a chest pocket, right? You know, like we need a pocket protector when we're going to bed. What's this all about? Yeah. And it was silly comedy but it was, you know, everybody knew what he was talking

about. I think, oh what's that? Right. No, I think Jerry, much like today, Jim Gaffigan. He's amazing. Yeah, they use the most base level things that everybody relates to and find a way to make that funny, you know, and it's something that almost everyone inevitably can relate to and as I've done. You've done some stand up comedy and you know that the most important thing if you're going to succeed in comedy is to be able to relate and engage with an audience. What's great and unusual about stand-up comedy as an industry and as an art form is that unlike being a movie star where you're reading somebody else's lines and you get to do things over and over or TV where there's a teleprompter, when you're a live stand-up comic you have

to not only know your material you have to be able to find out what that audience is interested in and relate to them. And what's really exciting and I think you can relate to this is that you never know what audience you're going to get. It could be a Wednesday night with 20 people or a Saturday eight o'clock show with 500 people. Man, you couldn't be more right. And you know, I always tell this, you know what I'm talking about, stand up because I've performed in so many different venues all over the country. And you know, the great thing is you can come in and have a crowd of 40 and they'll sound like 100 if you do a really good job. But if you come in and

there's seven, it sounds like seven. And there's no way around that. We had a show one time that we got booked for. And I questioned him when he booked it because it was right after New Year. And I'm like, man, is anybody gonna be even out for this? He goes, no, no, we've got a big thing, a big marketing push for it. We know we're gonna have a big crowd.

You know, I showed up and there were 12. And at that time I was mentoring my wife who's also a stand-up comic. And she came to me. Yeah, it is super cool. And she came to me and she said, listen, do I have to perform tonight? And I said, babe, listen, here's the deal. Those 12 people they paid, they paid for the show and they're going to get the show. So you get your head around it. You're going to perform those 12 people they paid they paid for the show and they're gonna get the show So you get your head around it you're gonna perform for 12 people work the crowd do your thing make it good and she did You know the show must go on it has to you know if you've got a paying customer you got to deliver for them You know, what do you think about? You know with the internet it's changed the comedy game in some ways. In some ways,

it's still the same. Some people still come up in the circuit, but with the advent of the Internet, you see a lot of people explode from there. But moreover, it seems like crowd work is what everybody loves to focus on now when they're promoting. What do you think about that? Well, I'm not a big fan of what the internet's done to the industry. I was in business before and then at the beginning of the internet. And it has turned, there's such a short attention span

that I've actually seen where some idiot is getting just three or four 30 second funny things, hitting himself in the balls or something. Right. On TikTok. And then some stupid company will pay him $10,000 to come out and do a private show. And then he gets there and he's got a minute and a half of material. And you're supposed to do an hour show. Now, you're right.

It's a it's a loser for everybody. But I wanted to go back to the previous topic of small shows. I got a great story for you. OK. You ready for this one? Yeah, I'm ready. Remember Gary Shanley? Of course I do. Yeah, everybody remembers Gary. Gary Shanley show, the Larry Sanders show.

Yeah. One of the funniest guys, he's probably done a hundred movies. If you guys go to the Googler and put in Gary Shanley, you'll recognize him right away. Absolutely. I'll host of the Tonight Show Well, he was my very first comic really and I opened in 1980 He made a hundred dollars to work for a week. It was his first road gig out of Phoenix But here's the story one night. It was it was a Tuesday night We had as you were talking about, 12 people in the audience. And Gary's doing his show, right, because you do the show no matter what, and about halfway through the show, one of the guys gets up and goes to the restroom.

Oh, wow. And Gary pauses, and this never happened in my 20 plus years 40 plus years in show business. When that happened, Gary stopped the show and said that's too high a percentage of the audience. He took the other 11 people, all couples, down the hall into the men's room. This guy standing at the urinal doing his business. Gary goes and stands right behind him. 11 men and William cram into the men's room and then Gary went on with the show like nothing was changing.

In the men's room, that's phenomenal, man. That's great. And you know what? Those people remember that the rest of their damn lives, man. And it was a once in a lifetime moment and the poor guy trying to do his business was just freaked out. Oh, I bet. I will share with everybody. We did make sure he washed his hands. Well, that's good. in a lifetime moment and the business was just freaked

I will share with everybody. He washed his hands. Well, you know, man, that's fan in the comedy club busine what made you move on fro you know, comedy started changed. I was very lucky What's the story behind it? What's the story behind it? What's the story behind it? What's the story behind it? What's the story behind it? What's the story behind it?

What's the story behind it And I got a kind of one of those offers you can't refuse So I was able to cash out and my first retirement. I was 44 Wow You know, I it wasn't a bad situation. No, it's interesting Patrick that club laps unlimited that I started in 1980 is still running today

Now I'm not a part of it But that club has lasted 45 years and when I opened it, it was the 12th full-time comedy club in the country and now it's one of the oldest. That's amazing. That's amazing. Yeah. It's quite a legacy. I'm very proud of it.

I bet. I went on other adventures. I'm an entrepreneur. That was, I was 24 when I started it, but that was my third company. Really? And I went on to have restaurants, jazz clubs. I was a co-owner when I started it but that was my third company. Really? I went on to have restaurants, jazz clubs,

I even owned a submarine and a beach shack in Hawaii. Now, what what were you doing with the submarine? Having fun. Yeah, that's great, man. So, I was co-owner of a company called Snuba. It's underwater snorkeling. It's all over the world. If you travel to tropical locations, you'll see Snooba. I've seen it.

And the owners of Snooba built this tourist submarine, full size, you know, I don't know, I think it was 120 feet long, held 40 people, tourist submarines. And they called me out to Pearl Harbor to help them launch it. And I go, man, this is cool. I want one of these. So I bought one and put it in Monterey, California and actually ran it for a couple of years. I got a chance to drive the submarine, interact with the people. It's wild, the pelagic fish and the sea lions

and the sea otters. It was quite an experience, but we lost our ass financially. Monterey has a problem with cold water and algae bloom. Oh. And so it didn't work like a tropical location. So we ended up selling the submarine to the Wrigley Gov family. It still operates out of Catalina Island.

Really? That's something. Yeah. So there's a little bit of a story there. That's a good one. So let me ask you this because, you know, we bring a lot of comedians on this show and there are a lot of up and coming comedians who come on this show. We just had Trevor the impressionist. Oh yeah, Trevor Weller Jr. Yeah, his dad's a star on his own. Thank you Patrick. Yeah. You also bring on a lot of young

musicians and get them to showcase your music. My hat's off to you. Thank you very much. I don't do that kind of podcast, but I was really great to see you have comics and musicians. You've had some amazing people. Thank you. Yeah, we you know what? I'm going to sidetrack myself, but we just had a big event over the weekend and I was just sitting here talking to the complex owner where my studio is located at and we were talking about, I've come up with this crazy idea to take some of these comedians and do our own comedy specials. Produce them out and air them on our program at different times or whatever. But so my question to you is, you know, when it comes to a young comedian who's trying to make it, what are three things you would tell them

that are necessary to succeed in comedy? Well, as you know, Patrick, the three main things are get on stage, get on stage, get on stage. That is absolutely correct. Yes. Because it's all about stage time. Yes, you want to start writing. Yes, you want to, you know, decide how you're going to present yourself as a performer on stage. If you want to go professional, you have to, it's a job. You got to work at it. You just go up, you have to, it's a job. You gotta work at it. You can't just go up, you know, get drunk and tell a couple dick jokes and think you're a comic.

No, that's right. Prepare. But to any young professional like Trevor or any of the people you work with, the more stage time you get, the better you're gonna get. You wanna take the jokes you write, which are lumps of coal, and work them over and over and over until you get a diamond of a bit. Then you move on and write another bit, and you keep adding to that. So the guys I work with will say Dana Carvey or Harry Anderson from Nightcore. They would start off

with, you know, five or 10 minutes of material but a year later, they would come back. They would have that same 10 minutes because they'd honed it but now it's a half hour because they're building on it. Yeah. No, that's right. I, you

know, my forte, you know, I I do stand up and and I do the show and all that but my real forte has always been writing and uh you know I wrestling. Yeah. Well, no, no, that's definitely not my forte. I did it but it ain't my forte.

I promise you. My ribs say otherwise. Um but well, writing is so important, Patrick and you have the gift of being a podcaster and being a professional like stand-up, you understand what it takes where it's, you know, you set up a premise and then you do a punchline. You know, you can't just go out and do the punchline. You have to get the audience on the same page as you. Well, you do and and I think first of all, you have to be authentic if you want to be

successful in my mind. You know, there are very few. Yeah, there are some comedians with gimmicks that work, but it's really the authenticity that that makes it work. I think for most comedy and you have to find your own voice. And sometimes that takes just a little bit, but it takes mainly getting on stage as you're saying and doing it over and over again because to your point, you know, I tell these guys, look, write a skeleton of what you kind of have in mind, okay? And then flesh that out. Yeah, and start flushing it out and then go every angle you can think of in and out of it

and try to find things that that tie to it and and work it slowly until you get it there. Did you do this? It's so important to not only do you want to get on stage in front of strangers, not your friends, not your friends. Yeah. Record your sets, even the bad ones, because that's when you learn, you know, as an entrepreneur who started over a dozen companies, failures are the stepping stones to success. If you're not failing, you're not trying.

Right. It's the same in comedy. Everybody you've ever heard of from Dana Carvey to Paula Poundstone, if you don't bomb, you're not gonna succeed. No, you have to fail. I do think you can hedge some bets. You know, this is what I would tell them is look,

you know, you write this material this five minutes out, right? And then get you a recorder. It could be your phone, now these days, but back then whatever recording device you had, do your five minutes and do it. You don't have to go full throat, but you need to go with gusto and record it and then listen to it. And listen to it objectively and go, is it funny? How many dead spots do I have? Where can I fill out? Where should I do this? You know, where can I pause or not?

You may hear where an audience really likes something that you were so excited about you forget, and oh, the audience liked that. I gotta remember to keep that in. Oh, the audience didn't like that. Maybe I can rewrite it or drop it. Oh, the audience didn't like that, maybe I can rewrite it or drop it. Yeah, no, that's absolutely true. So, you run into all kinds of people, I'm sure, in the comedy world, you know, with having 21 comedy clubs, working with the folks

that you work with. You know, who are some other celebrities that you encountered in your time? You know who are some other celebrities that you you encountered in your time? Well, it was an interesting story this gentleman never worked for me, but There was a time I'm gonna try to keep it a short story. Okay. I was doing open mics That's where you learn how to become a comic right there was a guy here in Sacramento I'm in Central, California that came up and he was just horrible. And so I was very honest with wannabe comics and I would sit down with them after and critique their sets and tell them where they need to work on or this or that.

And I did this with this young man. Nothing mean, but you know, if you're not funny, you're not funny, you need to hear it. Yeah, that's true. Three page letter and the first two pages he was threatening my life was said he was going to stop me. He was going to blow up my car, all this stuff and then the last page how much he loved me, right? Okay. Yeah. So this guy was obviously nuts. So fast forward about a year and a half

obviously nuts. So fast forward about a year and a half and I got a phone call from Sinbad the movie star. Yeah. You guys all know Sinbad. Yeah, Jingle All the Way, all those big things. Yeah. Perfect. He calls me and I get on the phone, hi this is Sinbad. Okay and he tells me the story that he met some guy down in LA and then got a three page letter threatening his life. So I said, look, the guy's harmless. He's a little out of his mind, but he's not gonna follow up on what he's doing. So, you know, don't worry about it.

So Simbed, yeah, I could have thought so, but I wanted to make sure. And we had a nice conversation and got to know each other a little bit. Now you fast forward another couple years and I was visiting a comedy club in a different town and the manager asked me backstage and they're sitting in the office with Sinbad. And I went up and I said, hey, I'm Scott Edwards and he goes, yeah, I'm Sinbad. And I said, well, yeah, Scott Edwards and he goes, I'm Sinbad and uh and I said,

well, yeah, I know we have a connection through uh death threats, right? What? And he goes, oh **** you're that guy. That's hilarious, man. That's hilarious. So, that's my uh uh you know, little piece of fame with Sinbad

that you just wouldn't expect, you know, we have a great bond over a death threat. That's funny. That's funny. Now, how did Tom Hanks get into your universe? Wow. Well, it was interesting. It was 1981. Bob Saget, who was a regular at my club, helped me get going, calls me up and he goes, hey, I have a week next week. Can I bring up this new young actor who needs to work on a set? I said, Bob, anything for you. So they say he was the nicest guy in the world. Yeah.

Tom Hanks wasn't Tom Hanks at the time. Right. It was another guy that was trying to get us, you know, shit together as an actor. Right. So Bob brings up Tom and Bob wrote material for him and I helped Tom with like stage presence, where to look and how to use the mic and stuff.

And between the two of us, by the end of the week, Tom had about a five minute set. Okay. Turns out the reason he was here was the next week, he performed that five minutes on you may remember an early TV show, Tom Hanks first show called. Was somebody? Yeah, of course.

That was Tom Hanks first show. Yeah. The material we wrote and he perfected he did on the show. So it was really exhilarating that we got to work with him. Oh my god, yeah. He's out on TV the next week. And it was a great moment in my life to get to work with Tom. But he wasn't, you know, I mean... He wasn't that Tom Hanks yet. Yeah. No, I remember that show. It was a really funny show and he had

gone down the early path of funny and of course later became the Tom Hanks we all know and love. But, you know, going back to Bob Saget, you know, everybody universally says they love that cat like he was the nicest guy on the planet. Sounds like he was like the dirtiest guy on stage. Always. He played Danny Tanner on children's TV, a full house, but on stage he was filthy. Filthy. One of the nicest guys helped me get started my first two TV commercials. He wrote them and acted in them and charged me nothing. Wow, that's cool. That's cool. Yeah, and it's so sad that we've lost him now. I know he was such a great guy, but what a lot of people don't know

Is that he was first before an actor before a full-time stand-up comic. He was a comic musician Oh really bring a guitar on stage and do these dirty lyrics. That's hilarious. I did not know that That's great. So you you on and you produced a couple of television shows. Which is harder producing 21 comedy clubs and making that work or producing a tv show? I really love producing period but when it came to the tv series we did two series and a one one-hour special. I was not only the producer but I had to I was a director. Oh wow. And in two of the cases I was also the host. So it was a lot more work in a different area. You know producing live shows could be challenging enough. You're talking about producing

some shows Patrick. One of the biggest things that people don't think about is that you've got an audience of 200 people and show times two hours from now and then one of the acts get sick or doesn't show up right right. make sure as we talked about earlier the show must go on. In television production it's kind of a whole different ballgame because if you're really good at your job as a producer everything's in place but during the actual shoot where you're spending lots of money you have to make sure that everything falls into place and when the other thing that's interesting about television production that the thing falls into place It's painful. Sometimes you have to cut out good shit. Yeah, no, it's the truth, man. It's the truth. So, Scott, what are you doing these days that people need to know about? Wow, I'm glad you asked. I am now, I'm retired now, and I'm a podcaster. For the last five and a half years, I've got a great stand-up comedy podcast called Stand Up Comedy, Your Host and MC, and that name comes from that's how I was introduced

for all those years right there's your host and MC Scott Edwards down and back down and back yeah and my podcast has two phases every other week I interview somebody from the industry so you get these great interviews where people tell stories and share their secrets About being caught in the comedy industry and then the other week I share actual stand-up comedy From back in the 80s and 90s. So wow, that's cool. I get Jay Leno and Paula Poundstone I Even had Ellen DeGeneres on my stage as a feature act before she was famous. Oh wow.

Great material there. But this will be the first time I've shared this. Patrick, are you sitting down? I think so. Yes, hold on. Yeah, I am. I am. Yeah.

For your audience only, this is the first time I've shared this. I've always done audio podcasts because I kind of think that's the basis of the podcast. Sure, sure. But everyone's going to video. So on February 18th, I'm launching my first video podcast being announced here for the first time called Tag Team Talent Podcast. And I'm going to be showcasing the variety arts including stand-up comedy, magic, impressions, ventriloquism through short one to three minute videos from all over the world. It's so exciting Patrick, I've had people send in stuff from Panama

City and from Argentina and I'm gonna have a co-host that's the tag team part. Right. So me and a co-host, every show, the co-host will change, I'll be consistent. And we'll be showcasing these videos from all over the world. All the shows are only about 15 minutes long, but it's gonna be a lot of fun. It's called Tag Team Talent Podcast.

And if you know anybody that's got talent, have them go to my website. Well, I certainly will have, I know many that have talent., have them go to my website. Well, I certainly will have. I know many that have talent. I will send them to your website and we certainly want to help you promote this. So make sure and keep us in the know. Send us a link so when you launch it, we can share it to all of our people and make sure everybody's tuning in to see what's going on, what's going on in

the comedy world, both old and new. Oh, it'd be great. In fact, it's so funny you mention that. Two things. If you do want to send us a video, the website is www.tagteamtalentserch.com because right now we're searching for talent. Okay. Tagteamtalents talent search.com.

And it's, as you mentioned, so I had these two TV series in the comedy special, we got a chance to record Dana Carvey, Dave Collier, Bob Saget, Pat Paulson. So on this new podcast that I'm launching, there'll be, I showcased two talented people from somewhere in the world, and it could be dance, music, ventriloquism as I mentioned, impressions, but the third video will always be some of the classic comedy from my old TV show. Oh cool. So people will be able to see Dave Couillet and Bob Saget and Paula Poundstone before

they were painted. In the raw so to speak, right speak right in the raw well this is this is great and i'm telling your audience first well man we're thankful for it and i definitely want to help you get the word out and definitely we'll you know get some folks to submit and and see if maybe they can get on there on tac team and uh see if maybe they have the the skill set or the talent that you're looking for. Oh that would be great. You know people like Trevor and you had Jason on earlier. Yeah. You've got a lot of talented people and you know some of those musicians because it will go into solo musicians dance. I'd love to get some good tap dancers. I love uh tap but you know, the idea is just to

showcase talent from around the world not in 30 second or 10 second bites like Tick Tock. Right. All the videos are two to three minutes. We get to really showcase some talent and then me and my co-host will comment and and share with the

audience. It should be a lot of fun. Man, this sounds like a show. I want to watch it. I'm sure everybody's going to want to watch. So tell them again, what's the website? February 18th, it launches on Spotify. Okay, and tell them the name and the website again. It's Tag Team Talent Podcast, but the website's the important part right now. tagte talentsearch.com. There you go. talentsearch.com. There's a form, easy way to send in videos. We'll tell you more about the show and we pre-edited some samples that are on there. All right, so everybody go over there, take a look. Everybody knows somebody talented. You know somebody who's got skills. Send them his way and let's get them some notoriety about coming to talk to you about coming on. Oh, that's great. Thank you so much. Uh
