You're just trying to stink?
I use antiperspirant once and it made my armpits bleed.
Swear to God.
That's the softest thing
I've ever heard.
I'm like, I'm allergic to it.
It looked like someone
took like a knife
to my armpits.
I had like scars
going down my armpits.
That's what happens
the first couple of times.
You gotta just...
Fight through it.
I'm all set.
It's like not liking beer,
you know, you just gotta...
Why wouldn't you just use
regular deodorant?
Because I'm not trying to sweat.
It doesn't work.
Antiperspirant
it's cause you barely move

I think that that's a vibe
for you
I'm not gonna do that

just project calm how does it feel knowing that you have a vibe for you? I'm not going to do that. Can't even reach the mic. Just shout.
Just project.
Calm.
How does it feel knowing that you have a better studio
than Barstool Sports?
I do have better tables
than this shit.
It's not even wood.
The table's embarrassing.
It's definitely not.
You could probably peel it apart
like paper mache.
Like there's definitely
just several layers
pressed together.
Well, listen,
if Barstool,
the betting app
ever gets passed in New York, you better demand a new table. Yeah, right, dude. We're never getting a new table. I, listen, if Barstool, the betting app ever gets passed in New York,
you better demand a new table.
Yeah, right, dude.
We're never getting a new table.
I want to see if I can
peel this apart.
I used to use that.
Do you get free bet?
Do they let you bet for free?
No?
They don't give you nothing?
Maybe like from time to time,
something very,
like a very small little bonus
to bet with.
Probably like the...
Scumbags.
I mean,
they don't like to have big,
like the...
They get reimbursed, right?
No, they don't. Yes, they the they get reimbursed no they don't
they do
they gotta
he's like under contract
he's not allowed to tell you
it's a tax expense
it's like
it's a commercial
it's not real
yeah there's no way
he's betting that real money
what
they're fucking scumbags
or no they're great guys
they're responsible good guys
is what I mean to say
they're addicts
it's totally reckless gambling dude
I have to tell the line
I want to like impress on you how real it is
While also expressing how
Responsible these motherfuckers are
And how much you can win
And there's just stains
All over my pants
Dude and your shirt
You've been cumming wantonly
So fucking disgusting
I thought you were going to retain your cum bro
What happened?
It's not cum it's pizza
I got really drunk on Friday night
And I ate a bunch of pizza
And just left a bunch in your pants?
I was just standing outside the pizza place
Going back in for more
What happened to Fitness S?
I don't know that's
Oh it was Rich on Friday wasn't it?
Yeah
Where'd you go to Joe's?
Place on the corner?
Talking to the mic.
I have my apartment.
Talking to the mic.
Are we on?
Oh, are we recording?
Yeah.
How long have we been recording?
I don't think we have.
Oh, you got that pizza bit?
Great.
Yeah, that was killer.
You got the...
I've got pizza stains.
That murdered.
Gotta start.
That shit is fire.
Alright.
Are we in?
Am I in the shot?
Yes.
Oh, we're just doing the wide lens.
Okay.
Alright, should we kick it off like usual?
Are you an idiot?
Well, I didn't know we were recording.
It kind of threw me off.
He said like four minutes ago that we're recording. I didn't hear him.
Clearly.
Don't leave in that bit about him.
That drunk girl. Beep it all out.
Word of advice.
Word of advice. It was too much.
It was funny,
but it was gross. I would have done the same thing, but
just, you know, in this day and
age, that's wrong.
Just wear gloves or whatever.
Everton is a salt these days.
All right.
What is up, everybody?
Welcome back to Son of a Boy Dad podcast.
I don't know when this is coming out, so I won't say the date.
Just say the date.
It's coming out on Thursday?
This Thursday.
So it's Monday.
You'll see this on Thursday.
We are joined today by
comedian Colm Tyrell.
What's that? Yeah, that's right.
I said the name wrong. No, you said it wrong.
It's fine. You say it. Tyrell.
Colm Tyrell.
Like squirrel almost. Tyrell.
Oh, I didn't.
Yeah, I didn't know that at all.
Everyone's always said it wrong
yeah not everyone i've never heard anyone say turtle before i hate having the conversation
of fixing it though well you've never i don't think i've ever heard you fix it i just don't
just take it to the face dude i just it is an asshole thing to be like my name's like not
ferroni it's ferroni like it's just like all right who gives a fuck it's not like they're
memorizing it or your name's ferroni no it's not ferron Like, it's just like, all right, who gives a fuck? It's not like they're memorizing it or fucking... Your name's Ferroni?
No, it's not Ferroni,
but if I go to a ticket counter
and they're like,
Mr. Ferroni,
I'm not going to be like,
it's actually Ferron.
I've never heard anyone say Ferroni.
All right, well,
you haven't been to a lot of
ticket counters with me, brother.
You've got to start coming
to the ticket counters.
All right.
Dude, but I've been a fan of yours
from afar
I'm excited that you're in here
I think that I didn't even realize
You never came into Barstool before
Yeah I came in to do KFC
Really?
Did you ever end up doing Friday Night Pints?
I never saw the answer to the internet
What happened with that?
Nobody saw it
It was too hot
I did that answer to the internet thing,
which by the way, no one watches anymore.
The glory days are over.
Well, they watch like...
It used to be good and now it's just retarded.
Are you allowed to say that here?
Of course, of course.
They say Isabella Danger, right?
Is that her name?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
The adult actress.
The porn lady.
The porn lady.
They watch hers.
Hers gets like 10 million views.
Pretty much anything these...
Which I don't know why you would want to see a Bella...
These whores.
I don't know why you would want to see a Bella Danger answer weird questions.
Why would you rather be a dog with no legs or a turtle with no tongue?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
You can just watch her fuck instead.
Well, you got to have some downtime.
I guess.
People fall in love with porn stars, I think.
That's crazy. Yeah, definitely.
You'd think more of them would get murdered with the amount
that weirdos fall in love with them. You'd think that
they'd hunt them down and fucking kill them. They probably have
security with them a lot. Or they're such
badass bitches they kill back.
Yeah, that's true. I think the type of person wants to kill
a porn star is not physically
capable of that. Yeah, they don't have the drive.
Who was the porn star that fucked a fam? Was that Riley Reid? I don't have the drive. Who was the porn star that like fucked a fan?
Was that Riley Reid? I don't know.
Any of those real? Or was it Mia
or what is her name? And dude, who was the
one that fucked her stepbrother?
Which one was that, dude? Because I saw
that. Yeah, I saw one where there was
someone's mother was trapped in the
dryer.
That is a subcategory.
Just dryer fucking
yeah yeah
Mia Khalifa
Mia Khalifa fucked a fan
and it's like real
you should watch this
I saw it
because he can't get hard
yeah
I want to see a guy
not get hard
because that's the only way
I know it's real
yeah that's like what happens
that's how I get hard
he's super uncomfortable
what's that small cock
I know
he was a virgin
that's what it was
he never had sex before
so she fucked a virgin fan that's so fire that's such? I know. He was a virgin. That's what it was. He never had sex before. So she fucked a virgin fan.
That's so fire.
That's such love. I know. And she probably made
like $400 off of it. That guy's probably
like a victim today, though. He probably like complains
about it. Probably like writes into like the Daily Mail.
Why would
you ever let that get out?
Like that was like when she was like the most famous
porn star in the world. Why would you let what get out?
He was like, yeah, let's put this out.
I'm cool with that.
Yeah.
I love me not getting hard, losing my virginity to a porn star.
They paid him.
No, it's just that I gave him like 20 bucks.
That was cool to this guy.
No.
That's cool.
To him and all his-
Do you think he's alive?
Or do you think he killed himself?
I think he's a stud right now.
I think he's like the coolest kid in the forums.
That's possible.
In the forums, for sure. He's just on Reddit every
day, AMAs.
No one's asking him anything, but every day
he just posts an AMA. He's a forum dude.
You ever get on any forums?
You ever smash the forums?
Especially outside of Reddit, like actual forums.
No. I used to
do a lot of nerdy shit on Reddit, like
craft beer stuff.
I'd just be like, check out my haul. because i drove out of town to pick up some fucking like rare sours or whatever
yeah that was like so my reddit if you find my reddit it's like just full of like
me making a cocktail and like yo check out this cocktail i just made
and when people upload the fuck out of it they love it you were like a hero brother you were
like you were like the guy on on craft beer. Oh, I wish.
I was barely, I was just an open mic.
The dudes who love craft beer are fucking insane about it, though.
They'll ship like crates of it to other people, have friends that are in the craft beer game
and be swapping the shit.
I've done swaps and stuff like that.
Yeah.
You're dropping fucking $25 on a bottle of something that doesn't even taste that great.
Yeah.
When I was in like high school, this dude, like my friend's boss, he worked at like a
sporting good places.
My friend's boss made craft beers.
Oh.
And he made like, he had like, he printed out labels on printer paper and just like
taped them.
And they were like pictures of his kids.
And he gave them to us.
And we were like underage.
So we couldn't like buy beer.
Yeah.
So we were just like slugging these random beers that would just have like a picture
of his like naked child in a bath.
Naked child?
Oh, they were like children.
But still, that's even weirder to put on a beer bottle.
And we were just slugging them.
Even regular children pictures is kind of a little bit
grooming you into being a pedophile at a young age.
But putting naked children on there?
They were babies.
I think that that's extremely weird.
I think it was supposed to be like a family gift.
Yeah.
There's a thin line.
What's the difference between like child porn and art?
Like what's the...
I don't know if I would qualify
I don't know if I would classify this as art.
What else was it?
Just a picture? Just a weird
fucking... I mean, okay, I used the wrong word.
They weren't naked. They were in a tub.
They were in a tub.
But, dude, people used to paint, like, on the roof of a fucking Sistine Chapel a naked-ass baby.
They've always been fucking hot.
Well, naked...
Yeah.
Just the wrinkles, the creases of a little baby, you know what I mean?
Naked babies isn't that weird.
Yeah.
It's like the Nirvana album, except that gets a lot of backlash.
I think that kid is like suing Nirvana.
He's been...
He's been trying to for a while.
Yeah, they squashed it though.
They did?
Well, he said he was manipulated or something.
Yeah, he's a baby.
But he also posted a photo of him naked
as like an adult, as like a...
Like he redid it?
Yeah, and then he sold that or something.
And then like a year later, he was like,
no, fuck that actually
I'm still in
because he probably found out
how much money he could get
from the fucking
recreation
let's be honest
so if you're a pedo right
and this is back before
the internet
and you're just like
walking through
whatever
terror records
or whatever
and then you see
you're like
you're just like
what the fuck
how many
that's why
that album sold so well
they're not
Nirvana's terrible
but
with the pedo market
in the fucking record stores
they were looking
for something like that
yeah
they couldn't just
there was no internet
was it 94 or whatever
it was just like
the dawn of the internet
that's probably what
made the internet happen
like people needed
to get their hands
on this Nirvana shit
they're like
we need to swap child porn
there was probably
someone who was who invented the internet
strictly for child porn.
Yeah,
someone was involved
saying,
no,
this is for the government.
And it was definitely
in the back of their heads.
We all know this is for child porn.
Yeah,
the government who needed child porn.
It's like,
we need a safe place
for us to trade child porn.
Like,
we need a fucking dark web for us.
It was Al Gore,
wasn't it,
that invented the internet?
Somebody from the government, dude, working with the Clintons under the Epsteins, dude. Absolutely. They dark web for us. It was Al Gore, wasn't it, that invented the internet? Somebody from the government, dude,
working with the Clintons under the Epsteins, dude.
Absolutely.
They're connected to us.
I would go as far as to say majority of major companies,
all their products came from the ideas of
this will help us touch kids.
Tesla.
Tesla.
I mean, you're probably right.
Which is crazy.
Driverless cars
have your hands free
anything hands free
hands free calling
hands free fucking anything
Amazon
Jeff Bezos
just delivering
child porn
just
hey Siri
you know what I mean
everything's hands free
people can just
you can get touchy real fast
it is
they said that all
technological advancements
are for porn
but they leave out
the child porn part of it.
That's really what it all comes down to.
It's a bad look.
Yeah, it is.
Why are you always talking about child porn, dude?
Me?
I don't know.
It's your bread and butter, dude.
I saw him do a half an hour, and it was just strictly child porn.
It was all child porn?
Yeah, it was PowerPoint.
PowerPoint.
We need someone to unlock our ability to talk about child porn.
We don't talk about it enough.
And it's about fucking time.
I'm the only one who has the balls.
The fucking balls.
These pussies won't talk about child porn.
Dude, I think it's time for your bagel unboxing.
Oh, yeah.
We got a little bagel from the kitchen.
Oh, no.
Is that one of the sandwiches?
Yeah, that's a breakfast sandwich.
I don't like your pessimistic attitude.
Yeah, but oh, no about it.
All right.
It's a sausage, egg, and cheese.
Yeah, and I'll unwrap the back because that's where the goods are at.
What do you mean?
What do you mean?
What is it?
Batteries?
You got to see the back of the sandwich.
Just those so and wet eggs.
Oh, yeah.
There we go.
Look at that.
Good fold to the eggs.
What's your thoughts on a breakfast sandwich?
Are you a breakfast sandwich guy?
Yeah, yeah.
I need ketchup or whatever.
Let me take a bite.
Yeah, get that.
One bite.
You want to meet Dave?
March into his office and be like,
why is my answer the internet,
not on the fucking internet?
People don't know
if I'd rather be a turtle
without a tongue.
What was your answer to that?
You might as well
get it off your chest now.
What was a turtle
without a tongue
or a rabbit with no feet
or something like that?
I said,
would you rather be
a dog with no legs
or a turtle with no tongue?
Yeah.
The dog with no legs.
You gotta be a turtle
with no tongue.
Turtle with no tongue.
They can fucking chomp down.
You know what I mean?
Just snort.
Do you like that sandwich?
It's alright. It's pretty bad, right?
It's good because it's free.
Yeah, that's the only reason that it's good.
You can really only get the first
the middle of it.
You gotta get a couple of mites out of the middle and then you toss them.
It tastes like something from an airport.
I don't know where they get those. Wees out of the middle and then you toss them. Tastes like something from an airport. Yeah.
I don't know where they get those. We have them every single Monday.
And everyone hates them.
Yeah, but they were all gone today.
This was like the one, it was like a lone survivor.
There was only one left. Really?
They were all gone? Yeah, it's because the folks are in town. Oh, yeah. They're like, damn, dude, I didn't know
they get free fucking sandwiches here. I gotta start
coming to HQ more often.
We've never seen any of these people.
We don't even know any of our coworkers.
They're just random people.
Are you a breakfast guy?
Or do you usually like to put something
in your body in the morning?
What the heck?
What are you flirting with me?
Yeah, because I got some fucking
piping hot sausage
brother if you like that
some pork sausage
bro yeah I like to eat breakfast
yeah
that's so sick
the hard hitting question that's so good dude
this is gonna be a great episode
interview of the year

You eat lunch?
I'm a lunch guy.
Brunch on weekends.
Really? I'll do some brunch.
No way, bro.
That's awesome.
So what have you been up to, Colin?
Comedy.
Tell us about yourself for those who don't know.
How do you write your material?
Let's talk about GameTime, okay?
GameTime is a new ticketing app that makes it easier than ever to score last-minute deals on tickets to sports, concerts, and shows, and they guarantee the lowest price.
I want to go see the Mets play at some point this summer, the Yankees, the Red Sox.
Hell, I might even go see the Celtics in the playoffs. Okay? And I'm going to do that by downloading the GameTime app,
going to the account tab,
create a login,
redeeming the code BOYDAD for $20 off my first purchase.
Turns applied.
Go ahead, download the GameTime app.
Last minute tickets, lowest price guaranteed.
Yeah.
Wait, where were we?
So tell the viewers
about yourself.
I'm a comedian. I'm Irish.
Yeah, you're Irish. Is that true?
Shut the fuck up, bro.
I'm an immigrant. Dude, I had an awkward-ass
encounter this past weekend. I was sitting at a bar
and a couple with an accent
came up to me and the bartender leaned
over and she was like, what part of Ireland are you from?
And they were like, we're from Scotland.
Which has got to be the biggest slap in the face.
No, that's not as bad.
No? What's the worst?
English. Because English suck.
You're British, aren't you?
You also don't sound British at all.
Yeah, but people just don't know. They just hear
an accent. People think I'm Australian all the time.
I can see Australian, but British?
You know what I get? I get Russians
see me and they stop me
because they think I'm Russian. Really?
People, every day I walk through
and they'll just hear,
and then I'm like, what?
And they go,
I also get the president of the Ukraine. People think I look
like that guy. Yeah, you do. What's his name?
Zelensky? Zelensky.
But too wise. Everything I post, people fucking...
You do kind of look like him.
He's a heartthrob, too.
Like, people are...
You're in, like, better...
Creaming for...
Yeah, he's a little bigger.
He's like a...
Shut the fuck up.
He's a little more jacked than you.
Yeah, he's going through a fucking war right now.
He has to be jacked.
He's not on the front lines fighting.
He's wearing a fake body.
That's not even him.
It's a whole body double.
He's an actor.
You know that? He's also even him. It's a whole body double. He's an actor. You know that?
He's also a comedian.
Yeah.
He just got a significantly
hotter dude to be his
body double for war times.
Yeah, probably.
You think presidents
have body doubles?
Yes, 100%.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Wouldn't you get someone
a little bit better
looking than you?
No.
You'd get someone uglier?
Yeah.
No, because that's the
dude everyone sees.
So you want people to
think that you're super hot.
But then when they see
me in person, they're like,
whoa, you're in way better
shape than I thought you were.
That's what you'd rather? You'd rather the few people
that meet you rather than the millions that
see you from afar? Yes. That's some
bullshit. How long have you been over here, bro?
How long have you been living here? You don't dress
like you're Irish.
What do you want? A kilt?
A kilt and a little pig under my arm?
A big ass chunky sweater.
I'm going to Ireland this summer for the first time.
Oh, you're going to love it.
Yeah, I feel like I will love it.
It's great.
I'm going with my family and they're all like, what do you want to do?
And I'm like, the only thing I want to do is I pull up at a bar and fucking drink a heavy
ass beer for fucking 18 hours straight.
Yeah, yeah.
That's pretty much all it.
No, Ireland as a vacation is the best.
Yeah.
I love it.
Yeah.
It's boring to live there, but visiting is the best.
Why?
What's the difference as far as lifestyle and how it goes down?
Well, you're drinking every day.
Well, I guess that's the same regardless.
But like, you're on vacation.
It's just like, it's fun to go visit, but like things close relatively early.
You know, you can't get a coffee at 5 p.m.
You're everything shut.
That sucks.
But it's fun.
Do you go back a lot?
Yeah, I tried to go back at least once a year.
I didn't go home last year because of COVID.
I'm going home in October
and December.
When's the best time to get out there?
July probably.
Less likely to be raining.
I didn't realize that it's skinny as fuck up there.
You can go from
shore to shore in like 30 minutes
or whatever it is.
Three and a half hours.
Three hours.
You just could throw
a fucking baseball
from fucking shore to shore
out there.
And it's cool.
And everywhere is different too.
It's like,
you know,
even though it's only
a three hour drive,
like the accent,
you'll go to like
four different accents.
Yeah.
Before you even get
to the other side.
Yeah.
Oh yeah,
there's like a really deep one, right?
Everywhere has a different accent.
Like a thick.
You were telling me about
the poor, there's like a real,
what's the,
where is the area
that has like a super,
like you can't even understand
what they're saying
because it's so thick.
Oh, there's parts of like,
down, there's parts of like
in Kerry,
which is the south,
where they sound like chickens.
They do,
and I don't understand them.
They go,
how's it going?
They go, good morning.
Is Meepaw Molly from Ireland?
She's Liverpool.
No, she's from Scouser.
Liverpool.
So all the Irish moved to Liverpool back in the day.
And that's where they get that horrible accent from.
It's like,
Dude, it does.
It strikes me as weird how like accents do affect like the pitch and What is your fucking chicken? Dude, it does, it strikes me as weird how like accents
do affect like the pitch
and tone of your voice.
Like there are people
who have a higher voice
and like there's deeper accents.
Like the people sitting
next to me at the bar,
the Scottish people,
like the dude and the wife
had like deep ass voices.
It was kind of sweet though.
Yeah.
As a guy who doesn't have
a super deep voice,
I was a little jealous
that culturally they just
have that fucking nice
ass fucking deep voice.
Like they took some fucking helium. What's the opposite of helium? deep voice. I was a little jealous that culturally they just have that fucking nice-ass fucking deep voice. Like,
they took some
fucking helium.
Or what's the opposite
of helium?
What's the shit
that makes it?
Fuck,
what is it?
What is it?
I don't know what it is.
Fuck,
I forget what it's called.
What is,
of the American accents
you've heard,
which ones,
like,
strike you as,
like,
real goofy
and which ones
sound cool to you?
Goofy?
Would be like,
fucking,
is it Ben Avery, the
fucking Wisconsin
member
making a murderer.
Making a murderer. Do you remember that show?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that where they were from?
I don't even remember that. It's like a Midwest
accent. Yeah, that's like a goofy one.
From Wisconsin, like cheese
and kielbasa, Polish sausage. I can't do it, yes. And even some sort of Chicago accent. Yeah, that's like a goofy one. From Wisconsin, like cheese and kielbasa, Polish sausage.
I can't do it, yes.
And even some sort of Chicago accent that kind of fucked up too.
Yeah, that Midwest.
I never really picked up that much on the Midwest accent.
Chicago accent.
My mom is from Chicago and she'd always be like, Adam, go get your jacket.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You left it on the roof.
That is exactly how it sounds.
In Fargo.
Yeah, the Fargo accent is so good.
It's so goofy.
I love it, though.
I think it's so funny.
Yeah.
When the police officers are investigating a triple homicide,
they're like, wow, not looking too good.
I can't do it.
He blew his head right off his head.
And they always talk about, because they're from Minnesota,
or like, where's Fargo?
But they're always like, Minnesota nice.
Like, we're nice as fuck from Minnesota.
Like, if you have to tell people all the time how nice you are, and just because you have
a sweet-ass accent, you're probably not that nice, dude.
That's fucking-
And they're just very, like, proper.
And they're just bragging about being nice.
That doesn't strike me as nice either.
Just be nice or don't.
I don't think they're that nice.
If being nice is your thing, it just means you have nothing.
Yeah.
It means you have nothing at all to offer the world.
That is true, dude.
You're just like scared that people aren't going to like you, so you're just nice.
You don't even have statues or anything.
You're just like, we're the nice people.
Yeah, nice people get rolled the fuck over.
They may have corn.
They got a lot of corn.
Nice people have corn.
Yeah.
Nice ass people have tons of fucking corn.
I don't even think they're that nice, dude. When I lived in, I lived in Wisconsin for like a month and they like, don't like, like
when you're walking down the street, I noticed that like, they don't look at you or like
make, they don't even like attempt to like, like, cause like when you're in like a suburbs
of somewhere else, say Massachusetts, you wave to people.
Yeah.
You're walking by them.
You say, Hey, how's it going?
You do?
Yeah.
Yeah.
In Wisconsin, it's like they look in wisconsin
they look the other direction no that's true hey it's like looks like rain and in wisconsin they
look the other way yeah they like mad at you they turn around they like don't they try and avoid eye
contact with you is that why you don't like new york if it's two people walking on a street and like it's just you guys, they won't even
like acknowledge you.
Maybe because nice people are scared as fuck.
That's why they're nice.
Yeah, because they're just pussy.
You're a hoodlum.
You're just a young hoodlum.
I know.
I'm a troublemaker.
That's it.
You're a neighborly troublemaker.
That's my nickname around here is troublemaker.
Yeah, it is.
You're a bad motherfucker in these parts.
What were you guys doing together on...
All right, first I want to know what accents you think are sweet in the US.
What's a fucking sweet-ass accent that we have?
I guess a Southern is nice.
Yeah.
It can be, but, you know, that's, like, such a wide range.
But I can't really hear the difference between, like, a Texas and, like, Tennessee or something.
I wouldn't really know.
Yeah.
You guys might be able to tell the difference.
I can't.
What's your perception of Southerners?
Like fucking,
they're fucking cowboys
or do you think they're simple folk?
Yeah, but nice blend.
A hybrid of that.
Simple man with a cowboy hat.
I like them.
Yeah, I like them too.
I like all the people
except for the fucking
those nice ass Midwesterners.
Were you just in Texas? Or are you you going there soon I'm going next week
get your tickets
plug your shit
I've got dates coming up in
Houston, Austin, San Antonio
you can get tickets on my social media
at Columntirl
fuck yeah
I'm about to buy some tickets I'm not even going to go to the show, but I'm about to buy just support.
Good.
Do you care either way?
Like as long as the tickets are bought, right?
I wouldn't care.
Or you want a warm body in the seat.
I would prefer.
A body of any temperature.
A cold ass body.
I'll send a cadaver over, bro.
I can't make it, but I'm going to send a little body double over, something else to sit around.
Didn't 50 Cent do that to like Ja Rule or something where he bought like an entire-
The whole section?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
The front couple rows?
Yeah, didn't he buy the whole, he bought all the tickets, I thought, right?
What a fucking savage.
But honestly, that wouldn't bother me that much if I was just going to fucking-
I mean, he's getting the money.
They would, but as a comedian, that's like horrific to show up and just have no one there
except for one person in the crowd.
Really?
Miles down the back. What would you even do? do i don't know i'd still be happy to be
honest i'd be happy for the money yeah yeah i mean yeah it's like nothing really like one person
might see you bomb not the worst yeah i need the money more than i need my pride yeah i did a rap
show one time when there was where there was literally one person in the room.
It was like a place where you walk through the bar and then you go to the back room.
You go through two double doors and there was just one person there watching the show.
And there was four or five people at the bar.
They could have easily just walked into the next room and fucking supported the rap show.
But it was one person there.
Yeah, that's tough.
Maybe the most humiliating and humbling thing of all time.
Yeah.
I probably couldn't have felt worse about myself. And had to give it all like yo yo yo you fucking
the dude didn't have when i gave him mine
it was fucking bad
there's a famous
there's a famous story
of a comedian
who knows if it's true
but in Edinburgh
they have the Edinburgh Fringe
and you can have
some bad shows out there
because it's like
someday it's sold out
the next day
there's two people
and you just do the show
and then
some guy
went out
and there was two people
in the crowd
and they're kind of
down the end
and he said fuck I'll just do the set.
And one of them's laughing enough and the other person's not really laughing.
And at one point the person gets up and leaves.
One of them gets up and leaves and the other person's just staying there.
And he doesn't.
And so he just keeps doing this act, but he's not getting a single laugh for like 30 minutes.
He's just someone in the shadows.
And at the end he's like, all right, thanks.
It's over.
And doesn't get a single laugh. And then he turns on the shadows. And at the end, he's like, all right, thanks. It's over. And doesn't get a single laugh.
And then he turns on the light.
It was the guy's jacket.
No.
He's just doing material
to an empty chair.
That's awesome.
That was the silhouette of a human.
Yeah.
That's unreal.
That's fucking hilarious.
I hope that's true.
Yeah.
It could be.
Edinburgh is brutal.
I had a show before
there was eight people and I walked everyone. I walked the entire crowd. that's true. Yeah. It could be. Edinburgh is brutal. I had a show before there was eight people
and I walked everyone.
I walked the entire crowd
and walked out.
Yeah.
It was just bad.
How long did you do?
15 minutes maybe.
But I went out.
It was bad.
Damn.
That was a quick walk in.
Dude, it started bad
and it got worse, dude.
But I was,
I wasn't in the mood.
Sometimes audiences
just aren't up for it.
It just happens
it's just an organic thing
it doesn't really matter
you could be at the comedy
cell on a Saturday night
and there's just a
dutch crowd
for some reason
I don't know why
but it was like that
and I came out
and I did like a joke
and then someone left
like pretty much
straight away
it was like the first joke
of it
nope
and he left
and I'm
you remember what you said
or what the joke was
or like what
it was something probably
I think it was something
about having sex with special needs.
Was it actually?
I think it was.
Something about,
I can't remember what the joke was.
Something about neither of us can take off the bra or something.
I can't remember what it was exactly.
That's funny as fuck.
Something like that.
Way to go out swinging.
You're not trying to save your audience.
I did the opposite
I was like
I'm gonna make this bad
get the fuck out of here
but I came out to it
like no applause
like it started bad
yeah
it happened to me last night
with the host like
give it up
and the crowd was like
no I'm not giving it up
but why would you not
it's so weird
give it up
it's so annoying
it's like they're paying
to be there
yeah and they just sit there
and they just sit there
like angry
like someone forced them to go
exactly
yeah
and yeah so then they got up and then I went oh that's one let's see what else happens and then I just kept going harder And they just sit there like angry. Like someone forced them to go. Exactly. Yeah.
And yeah, so then they got up and then I went, oh, that's one.
Let's see what else happens.
And then I just kept going harder and harder.
And then eventually someone else left and it got down to like two couples.
And then one couple got up and left.
And I go, do you guys want to keep going?
And the guy goes, let's just hang it up there.
Were you like the last person to go up? i was headlining so i was the only person
to go so it's like this is an hour would have been awesome if you were the first person you
just ruined the show for everyone i would love to do that a room of a hundred being able to clear
out a whole fucking room the room clear was this at fringe was this at Edinburgh Fringe this is at the Edinburgh Fringe
yeah
what is that like
is it like
plays and shit like that
or is it
is it comedy
there's loads of stuff
yeah there's plays
there's comedy
there's music
improv and shit
yeah it's everything
there's every single thing
there's like a motorbike
fucking festival
at the same time
it's just
Edinburgh is just a small
town
or city
in Scotland
and then
there's like millions
of people come in
for a month
for this whole festival
and it's just
everywhere you turn
it's just like a carnival.
The streets are packed.
Yeah, it's fun.
So there's loads of shit though.
You know, there's comedy.
There's a lot of
gay drama stuff.
Yeah, dude,
my freshman year
of college
I was in,
I was in a fucking play
at Penn State. It was called Word Up and a dude wrote it. It was a fucking like, I was in a fucking play at Penn State.
It was called Word Up, and a dude wrote it.
It was a fucking like, it was a play where like, and they basically put me in the play
because I was like a white dude that could rap.
There was like a part of the whole play where I'd go out into the crowd and people would
hold shit up and I'd like freestyle off.
I was just like pretty much learning how to rap or whatever.
But the play did well enough at Penn State, and the whole time they were like,
this summer we got fucking signed to Fringe, dude.
We're going to fucking Fringe.
And they made it seem like it was like the fucking, like,
like Cans or some shit like that,
that it was like a massive thing.
And then they just fucking canceled on us.
They were probably like a fucking white dude that raps to the crowd.
Fuck no, dude.
We're not having this fucking play at Fringe or whatever.
But I've always wondered what,
I mean,
it kind of sounds sweet just having like a motorcycle rally and people trying
to do standup or whatever.
It's not,
well,
there's so many different types.
There's like the worst bar show comedy.
There's people just doing comedy on the street.
There's people just tiny little rooms like this.
Like you'll,
there is rooms like this where they'll just go in and there's like,
they can fit 15,
20 people in a tiny room.
And then there's also celebrities that go play like thousands of their venues.
So there's like loads of different stuff.
Is it happening like on the streets?
Like, can you tell when you're walking around that it's happening?
Or is it like when you go to like a film festival and you're like, I didn't even know it was
happening in the city because they're just in theaters?
No, in Edinburgh, it's so busy that you can't walk down the street because it's so packed.
So, you know, it's on, you know, and it's expensive too. Rent goes through the roof. Yeah because it's so packed. So you know it's on.
Yeah.
And it's expensive too.
Rent goes through the roof.
Yeah.
Maybe you should go do your little rap thing.
I kind of want to do
my little rap thing, dude.
Yeah, go.
I should.
Should we go?
Yeah, we should.
Oh, look, it's pepper spray.
Is that a bagel?
I would like plant people
in the fucking crowd
to like hold shit up.
But how much stuff could possibly be in someone's handbag?
You know what I mean?
Keys.
It's just wallets and keys.
It's always keys and vapes.
What rhymes with vape?
Papes.
I don't know.
Like the nape of someone's neck, maybe.
I would talk a lot about the napes of necks and shit like that.
That was one of your big ones?
Yeah, yeah.
That was a heavy hitter.
It's like...
Oh, nape.
He just said Nate the theater crowd
is like the fucking
easiest crowd
to uh
to like please though
that's why uh
Hamilton went off
because like those people
are just fucking
like pleased by like
the simplest thing
they're like pleased by like
the fucking easiest joke
yeah
the fucking simplest shit
you don't like
you didn't like Hamilton
I didn't
I'm not even gonna to watch it, dude.
I'm never going to see fucking Hamilton.
You've never seen it?
No.
They do an all-white reboot.
Then I'll watch it.
Maybe.
All right.
And they do traditional.
Once Tom McDonald's is playing fucking country music
instead of fucking this hip-hop.
I don't really fuck with that stuff.
What?
Hip-hop or plays? Like plays. Me neither. It's just never been with that stuff. What? Hip hop or plays?
No, like plays.
Me neither.
It's just never been something that I'm into at all.
I remember we used to have to go watch the school play when I was in high school.
And it was like, always, I was like, this fucking sucks.
Because drama kids, it's just like tough.
It's like, I know this isn't happening.
Yeah.
You would never break out in song.
You would never sing like that.
Yeah.
That shit just doesn't happen.
Yeah.
Musicals, though, I kind of fuck with.
You do?
Okay, yeah.
So that doesn't make sense at all.
I like musicals too.
But actually I take it back.
I didn't like the plays where there's no music.
Yeah.
But I saw some musicals in school.
Answer his question.
What's your favorite musical?
Phantom of the Opera.
Oh yeah?
Yeah, it rips.
I love the soundtrack on that.
Fucking Sistine Daya.
Yeah, it's so fucking good.
Yeah, that shit's fucking sweet.
What's your favorite musical?
What really gets your toe tapping?
I like Oklahoma.
No, you don't.
Oh, the cow man.
I like to be friends.
You actually like Oklahoma?
One man likes to milk a cow.
The other man likes to pull a plow.
You're like, I gotta get to the U.S.
Is that what you were expecting when you were coming over? Yeah, cow man. Really? All up loud. You're like, I got to get to the US. This is it.
This is it. Is that what you were expecting when you were coming over?
Yeah, cow men.
Really?
Just cow men.
Did you, when you moved here, did you move here for comedy?
It was part of it.
Yeah.
I was going to.
So you were doing comedy in Ireland.
I had started in Ireland.
Yeah.
How'd that go?
It was good.
Yeah.
But it's a small scene.
Yeah.
You know, like you can get up.
My first year I did, I performed like 12 times.
I open mics.
Oh really?
You go do an open mic
and then they'd be like,
I see you in four weeks.
I'm like,
all right.
Yeah.
So there just wouldn't be
another one.
There'd just be nothing else to do.
Really?
Yeah.
And then like,
so if,
if it went well,
you'd be happy.
But if you bomb,
you just have four weeks
of just being miserable.
Yeah.
To get back up.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That blows.
That's terrible.
And you're just like,
were you like working on it or were you just like, let let it go and just be like i'll just pick it up in
four weeks yeah you're like damn it i flipped that line so there's four weeks waiting to fix it
at the beginning i used to do like i just did a different 10 minute set every single time
really yeah i think at the beginning you're just like so happy to get on board you just want to
talk and talk and talk things like that yeah and then you moved here and then it's whatever.
But I was going to leave Ireland anyway.
There's something ingrained
in our soul
to just get the fuck off that island.
Something,
I don't know what it is,
but we're all just,
everyone's just walking around
going,
this can't be it.
I swear.
I swear.
Everyone's like,
my brother,
he went to Australia.
I came here.
Fuck yeah.
My sister went to the Caribbean.
What's the most popular place that people go?
Like, do they all come here?
Or is it just...
Australia more so now.
Yeah?
Yeah, they used to all come here,
but then fucking 9-11 made it.
Australia's never had a 9-11.
But you probably couldn't talk to your brother
all during COVID or whatever.
Weren't they on like some kind of crazy lockdown?
Australia?
I think they still are.
You couldn't even get on the phone or whatever?
I don't even fucking know.
They couldn't get on the phone? Yeah, they couldn't even write letters to each other.
FaceTime someone and kick the door down.
Who is that?
Put the phone down.
So how long did you move to
2014?
2014.
Yeah, I moved here.
To New York the whole time?
New York the whole time, yeah. So I don't really know
what anywhere else is like.
I visited, obviously, you know.
You've been going around, though. You've been doing shows.
Yeah, but that's like, you don't know why.
You don't really see the city when you're doing that.
Yeah, and all cities are so
shit. Just every time you go visit a city.
What's your favorite one that you've done?
What's your favorite city you've been to aside from New York?
Allbirds.
Allbirds are a footwear company that creates amazing shoes.
I wear them all the time.
They're made from natural materials that are better for you and they're better for the environment, which is very important to me.
They have more bounce with less ounce.
They're bouncier.
They're not very heavy.
They're light.
The tree flyer is my personal favorite.
It's lighter in weight and in carbon footprint.
Also very important.
The external heel counter provides a more balanced and stable ride,
making it easy to find your pace when you're flying through the trees with the tree flyer.
Long-distance comfort with superior grip.
I'm a big fan of the Allbirds.
I wear them all the time. They're great for working out.
Great for hitting the club,
going to the bars, going to the game.
Anything. You can wear them anywhere.
Lace up the TreeFlyer

That's A-L-L-B-I-R-D-S

I have no idea. D S dot com. That's a L L B I R D S dot com. Um,
I have no idea.
I don't know if I,
did you do Nashville?
No,
not yet.
Are you doing it?
Yeah,
I'm going to do Nashville.
What are you doing?
Xenius?
September 11th.
Actually,
we have a theme to this.
Wait,
it's not even on September 11th.
It's just September 11th
theme show?
In August,
all September 11th jokes?
9-11 memorabilia?
Exactly.
It's a celebration.
Yeah.
Half price tickets
if you dress
like a terrorist.
Just so you know.
Nashville?
Yes, come out Nashville.
Wrap up.
Wrap up. Wrap up.
Wrap up.
Wrap up.
I'll be selling my own merch.
Yeah, exactly.
Out front.
Do you think booking,
do you think booking,
do you think it's hard to book a show
on 9-11
because like everyone
wants to do 9-11 shows?
No.
You don't think so?
People don't even
acknowledge it anymore.
I don't think.
No way.
What?
No.
People don't acknowledge it?
But it's not like a day of observance.
It's not like everyone has to sit in silence
and like... No, but like for like
I'm sure a lot of comedians want to go up on 9-11
because they can do like low-hanging
9-11 jokes. They could, I guess,
potentially. I wouldn't
know any of those type of comics.
I hang around with
good comics.
You're just sitting around. We talk about fucking babies and like just having a kid. know any of those type of comics. I hang around with good comics. Fuck yeah.
You're just sitting around 9-11.
We talk about fucking
babies and like
disabled kids.
We moved on from 9-11.
I'm an artist.
You are dude.
The problem is
respect yourself.
9-11 jokes are very
topical for a while
whereas like you know
sex with disabled
children is just like
a constant.
That's evergreen.
That's not going anywhere.
As long as human beings are alive that will be part of our repertoire.
There will be a sect of us that are doing that, and I say us.
Yeah.
Inclusively.
Yeah, and you can go to any country and they'll just get it.
Yeah.
They've got it too.
Yeah, of course.
They embrace it more too.
Yeah, they've got it fucking everywhere.
What was the decision like to,
uh,
to move here?
What was,
uh,
what,
what did you have to like fucking tell a bunch of people or are you just like,
fuck it.
I did it on a whim.
I did it on a whim.
Didn't tell anyone.
That's awesome.
Did you say whim?
And now I've repeated your whim.
Cause that's the type of thing that I would like,
have I been saying it wrong?
A whim.
A whim.
Uh,
yeah, I, I, I finished college and then I just hated,
I had a job like working for like AT&T type thing.
I just hated it.
And I think I was hungover.
And I was just like, this can't be it.
So you just packed your shit and left? I went into the city straight after work
and I went to like a travel agent type thing
where they organize visas and stuff.
And I just like right then just put down like 2000 euro, whatever it was to cost for me to come over stuff. And I just like write down, just put down like 2000 euro,
whatever it was to cost for me to come over here.
Then I just came home.
I was like,
I'm moving to New York.
No way.
That's crazy.
What did they say?
Just,
yeah,
see you later.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just see you once a year.
I was,
yeah,
but I was gonna,
I could go once a year. But I was, yeah, but I was going to, I could go for a year.
I was either going to go to London or New York.
And at the time I had a graduate visa because I graduated college.
So you're allowed to come over for a year.
And yeah, so I just said, fuck it, might as well try New York while I can.
And that one year turned into fucking seven or eight or whatever it is now.
That's awesome.
Yeah, thanks.
Yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Where'd you move first when you were out here?
Were you living with roommates?
Were you living solo?
God.
So there was a girl I knew from college who lived out in Hoboken and she like politely
in passing was like,
if you need somewhere to crash,
you can stay in my house.
Really?
And I,
I showed up.
I was like,
Hey,
I'm coming here on Friday.
It was like Wednesday.
I messaged her.
I was like,
I'll be here on Friday.
Can I crash?
And she was like,
I guess, you was like I guess
I have all my
earthly belongings
and then I didn't
leave her house
for like
six or seven days
and then she was
like
can I see her last night
I don't care where
you have to go
you gotta leave
this house
she was like
yeah
I thought six or seven
days isn't that bad
I thought you were
going to say
six or seven months
dude I didn't even
know the chick
oh you did it
no
damn I kind of knew her like, you did it? No, no. Damn.
Yeah.
I kind of knew it, like, barely, you know?
And then I stayed in the worst place of all time.
I stayed in a place in Brownsville in Brooklyn.
Good for you.
It was a fucking shithole, dude.
I think I was paying, like, the entire rent for the entire house.
It was like someone's family.
I swear to God.
It was someone's, it was like a family. And it was like someone's family it was someone I swear to god it was someone's it was like a family
and
it was like a black family
and I'm like the white Irish immigrant
it was like literally like a bad sitcom
where it's just like
yeah yeah yeah
that sounds like an awesome sitcom
yeah
you ain't done
you ain't done a season of Chicken?
dude I honestly think that if you wrote that,
there'd be some studio that would be like,
we're making, or like Tyler Perry might just like
chef it up and be like, we're going to fuck it.
But he'd play the Irish dude.
Yeah, exactly.
Swoop in and play the Irish dude.
Yeah, he's just bagpiping away.
Yeah, so I lived there, but I was horrible.
There was like mice and cockroaches.
I think I was paying like $500 a month
and I had one room
and then there was
like another room
where the family lived
and there was,
the father was like
the fattest man
of all time.
He was like a 450 pound man
and he was literally
out of prison
for selling crack.
Like I,
like if you,
if I pitch this
as a sitcom,
they're like,
can we tone it down?
I was like,
yeah,
a little on the nose.
Yeah,
a little bit more.
Yeah, that's funny. He's a gangbanger.
I'm like,
no,
no.
Yeah.
And he,
and he would puke.
I don't know what happened.
He had some issues where,
so he'd just be puking all night.
I'd just be hearing him in the fucking bathroom.
There was a bunch of kids that would be running around the place.
I never knew who they were,
what their names were.
It was fucking.
Were you just loving America
you're just underneath
their car
yeah right so what was
your thoughts on that
like were you like
this was a terrible idea
it was everything I ever hoped
I can't
I was just so fucking naive
at the time
that I kind of didn't even
acknowledge it
I would just be
waking up with mice
nibbling at my fucking bed
uh uh
jeez
actually
yeah yeah yeah
it was horrible
damn
they kept going
the family that I was renting from they kept going the family that I was
renting from
they kept going through
my mail
I kept like coming home
and they're like
my mail
any cash in here
they'd hand me my mail
and it would all be
ripped open
I'm like
why is this open
they're like
we thought it was ours
and I'm like
okay
and then the next day
I'm like
dude what do you think
someone's sending me a check
what the fuck is going on
you gotta start putting bombs
in your fucking mail
did you see that video yesterday of the dude like trying to steal the package off a on? You gotta start putting bombs in your fucking mail. Did you see that video yesterday
of the dude trying to steal the package off a
porch and someone just left a bomb in it?
Oh, wow. It didn't kill
the guy, but it just... Like a glitter bomb?
Yeah, it was a real bomb. The dude was like,
ex-military motherfucker, stop stealing my
mail. Oh, wow. That's fucked up. It was a guy who
kept on stealing his mail. Imagine you tried to
kill a celebrity.
You were like, I'm going to bomb this celebrity.
And then some just,
someone just stole
the package off their fucking,
then you got to deal with that.
Yeah, you just killed
the wrong person.
You got to try again.
And now mail bombs taken.
Mail bombs aren't really,
they were never really
a big success, I don't think.
Why not?
The Unabomber failed a lot.
But he probably succeeded at easing them out. I think he only killed like The Unabomber failed a lot. But he probably succeeded
at easing them out.
I think he only killed
like three people.
He probably had a couple.
Yeah, how many have you killed, dude?
What do you have?
That's a success.
It was over the course
of like 60 years.
It's awesome pundit, dude.
It was over the course
of so long.
Every failure brings you
closer to a success, right?
I don't even know.
He's chipping away.
Tower, can you look that up?
How many people
did the Unabomber kill?
It was probably only three or four, but still, that's a fucking lot.
That's enough to look up how many bombs he sent, like a thousand.
No.
Dude was constantly sending out bombs.
Three.
He killed three.
How many bombs did he send?
That's pretty good.
He didn't send a thousand bombs.
He injured 23 others.
That's pretty good, too.
Injured as in they got a little scratch on their arm.
As far as a success rate.
Paper cut opening the fucking package.
I think the Unabomber is 16.
Yeah, okay.
That's a terrible KD.
What's the ratio there?
What's that, one in three?
Two in eight, one in four.
You're right.
And how many didn't injure anybody?
Were there any that just like people were unscathed?
Just blew up in the back of the fucking mail truck or whatever
or just weak ass bombs
he's a weirdo
I watched the whole documentary about him
why would you
no but like he's more weird
he's weirder than I thought
he would like call his mom
and like
oh fuck this dude
mom I need money.
And the writing was on the wall.
And he would be like,
it's your fault
that I've never felt
the touch of a woman.
That one's probably
not wrong.
Probably.
If his mom had just fucked him,
none of this would have happened.
Yeah.
If she had just fucked him
off the rip,
23 more people
would be on skates.
I'm 40 years old
and I've never even been
to second base, mom.
That's what you'd say?
Yeah.
Seriously.
She should have just
sent him some...
What's that, a titty?
Did a titty?
He's a fucking weirdo.
But that probably means
he's been to first base
so he's been making out
fucking ruthlessly.
He's always making out.
He pays extra
to make out with a prostitute.
Yeah.
What type of guy
can kiss a prostitute?
A lot of the reason
dude like a part of the reason
that he went crazy
was because he was living
in fucking
the woods
of I think
where was it
I don't know
you've definitely
been studying up
I watched a documentary
about him
like why do I feel this way
and the planes
would go over his uphouse
and he would like
lose his mind
and he'd try and shoot
down the planes
with like a musket.
Damn. Yeah. But does that's what made
him crazy? I feel like you want a peace and
quiet. If you move to the woods, you're
already crazy. Oh, yeah.
Surely. Yeah, definitely. He's already
I mean, yeah.
Like cities are where like society happens
and the further you move away from a city is like
the more you want to remove yourself from society.
It's like I want to be I don't want to be part of these rules of society.
Well, I could see moving away from a city.
Yeah.
But I'm saying like the farther you go, the more like individualistic you are with your ideals.
Like you're on some fucking weird shit if you're just living in a cabin.
Like, you know that you're not trying to be like among other human beings and living how they want you to live.
I want to do that.
I want to go to like a cabin in Alaska.
Just me, some tinned food,
and like a shotgun in case a grizzly bear shows up or something.
You think you could mentally sustain that?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I want to figure it out.
I think I could do it.
I think I could just use the shotgun.
It's been two hours.
I think I could do it for like...
I need to tweet.
I need to tweet.
I think I could do it for like a week, maybe. But I need to tweet. I think I could do it for like a week, maybe.
But didn't...
Probably like four days.
Bon Iver.
That guy.
Yeah.
Bon Iver.
Didn't he...
Like his girlfriend broke up with him, so then he was like, fuck this, and he's moved
to the cabin.
Really?
And then he just like wrote that album.
His like famous album.
Really?
It was just him and a guitar and nothing else.
And then...
That's pretty impressive.
Jerked himself.
Fucking... Oh, he jerked himself silly.
Crazy.
Oh, my God.
He was probably, like,
sampling his jizz splattering on the ground.
Those musicians are crazy.
You probably can't smell a pine tree now
without getting hard, you know?
It's just, I mean...
Yeah, definitely.
But then he came back and had that killer album.
Just the sound of a babbling brook
and he's fucking nutting himself, dude. He's just
going insane. Sufjan Stevens did
the same thing. He just packed all his shit and got
into a van and just got
away from everybody.
Baseball player, was it?
He's just
like Bon Iver. He's like the same class of people.
Yeah, but he's way better. Was he?
Sufjan Stevens over Bon
Iver? Yeah. No, I'm the other way, he? Sufjan Stevens over Bon Iver? Yeah.
No, I'm the other way, dude.
I'm an Iver.
Sufjan Stevens is like an amazing writer.
Is he?
Yeah. I think Iver's a pretty good writer, dude.
Not like Sufjan Stevens.
I think Iver is pretty nice with it.
Is it Sufjan?
I don't think it's Sufjan.
How is it?
Sufjan?
Sufan?
Sufan?
There's a J in the middle of the word, dude.
I thought you were saying Sufjan.
Sufjan. I don't There's a J in the middle of the word. I thought you were saying Soufjan.
Soufjan. I don't think it's Soufjan Stevens. You sound like a
WWE wrestler.
Soufjan Stevens.
Some guy in a Souf.
It's Soufjan.
Don't get blood on my throat.
It's probably
Soufjan. Spirit of my silence,
I can't hear you

Let's do the taste test.
That would not be fun.
With a bunch of your dudes just like sitting, like swaying back and forth.
This rips, dude.
Spirit of my silence.
It's tough to go to
this is a fucking blast
any type of concert
where you have to sit down
is like a little bit tough
nah we'll all do Molly
and just sort of cry
just like touching each other
yeah

Let's do the screen time.
Let's pull up our screen time from this week.
Let's all go around and say our screen time.
I'll pull up my screen time.
Do you guys have a little screen time tournament?
I was at six hours and 30 minutes a day this past week.
How did you even find it?
Settings, is it?
Where is it?
I think we did this like the other day.
Oh, I'm at three hours and 50 minutes.
Today.
It's the morning still.
I just bumped up to four hours and 13 minutes.
It's the morning, dude.
Did you get up early to get on your phone?
You set your alarm just so you could scroll the timeline?
No, my daily average this week is 4 hours and 13 minutes.
This week, it's one day.
It's the one day of the week.
Sunday.
Mine's 5-5.
For the last week, swipe to the left.
5-5?
Mine's 5-5.
Dude, you're out.
Mine was 8 hours and 40 minutes last week.
How many did you say?
Holy shit.
8 hours and 40 minutes.
No, 7 hours and eight minutes.
A lot of mine is driving though.
Is it?
Google Maps driving.
Liquid IV is the future of hydration.
I actually drink liquid IVs like at least once a day
just because it helps me stay hydrated.
One stick of liquid IV hydration multiplier
in 16 ounces of water hydrates you two times faster
and more efficiently than water alone.
That's two times faster. I like to use liquid IV after working out, maybe after a long night on the
town, before bed, anything. I really do drink them like multiple times a day though. They're
tasty and they hydrate yeah um what flavor do i
like the most i really like the lime slash lemon flavor that's probably my personal favorite um
something important about liquid ivs you can grab them in bulk nationwide at costco you can get 25
off of your liquid iv.com and use code sun so you get them at costco or you get them online and you can use code sun for 25 off at checkout use code sun experience better hydration today on liquidiv.com
promo code sun oh really yeah so that's where i think most of it has to come from you have a car
in new york oh yeah dude what the fuck fuck yeah dude is it uh do you have a parking spot or you
just park in willy nilly Just leave it wherever I want.
Really?
Just in front of a hydrant.
What a...
Yeah, fuck that.
I leave a threatening note.
Don't you fucking touch this car.
Fuck you up.
You don't know who the fuck I am.
Yeah.
I will send a mail bomb to your house if you touch my fucking car.
Holy shit.
You're a psycho for having a car in New York.
It's all right.
It's my girl's.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, hell yeah.
My wife's got a car too. She doesn't right. It's my girl's. Oh, yeah. Oh, hell yeah. My wife's got a car, too.
She doesn't let me drive it, though.
Like, babe, please.
She gives me lifts sometimes.
I just want to drive around the block.
I just want to go to Wegmans.
She's like, fuck no.
She bitches me out badly.
I just never...
I never even have the desire to drive.
I don't even want to drive in New York.
I feel like driving in Brooklyn
wouldn't be that bad at all.
I feel like it's stressful to drive
anywhere in New York, even as I'm driving out
of the city, just stopping and going or trying to
get ahead of somebody, trying to get into a tunnel.
It's just automatic stress on your brain.
Maybe. I don't think it's that bad.
I'm just built different, dude.
You don't even feel stress?
That'd be so fire to just have
that part of your brain.
When I moved into my new apartment, I drove up.
I drove my mom's car up and I was fucking whipping around the city.
Were you?
It was fine.
You didn't mind at all?
No.
No, you get used so fast.
I feel like just getting out of the city is the worst part of like getting onto the bridge.
Getting out of the city sucks.
Like if you're just going around Manhattan or going around Brooklyn, but like as soon
as you have to go from one borough to another, it turns into a fucking headache to you.
The only thing that I was scared about was bikers.
I thought I was going to hit a biker.
Yeah. Because those guys don't give a fuck.
Oh, they die left and right. Yeah, those guys don't give a fuck
and they go so fast. And did you see
the new city bikes? They're like motorcycles.
Yeah. They're like the same shit Meek Mill
rides around on. They have like a full-ass
motor. The silver ones, they're fucking...
Yeah, people are just fucking... No, I haven't weighed this actually a thing.
Yeah, there's new silver city bikes that are like,
I think they go fast as fuck.
Damn.
Like if you get hit by a car while you're on one of them,
your brain is exploding.
Dude,
all those after COVID,
because when COVID happened,
all the streets were pretty empty.
So all these delivery drivers for fucking group,
whoever,
were just going anywhere they wanted.
They didn't stop at lights or nothing.
And then slowly everyone started coming back out again.
And all these guys were just getting flattened all up and down the avenues because they were
just like going wherever they want, which is like, which is, which is.
They should honestly just drive in the same lane as the cars.
So they go faster than the cars.
That's what they're supposed to fucking do.
Yeah.
But you know, they've, they got bad habits, but that, that must be tough if you pull onto
a road and then you crack some guy
and get like some fucking
and those dudes are also
probably just moved here
and they're living with like
six people in Brownsville
in an apartment
with mice eating their blankets
and shit
yeah
exactly yeah
they're going through it
but you just hit someone
and then there's like
some dumpling soup
all over your wings
and stuff
and like
it's like
it's like just a double
what is this
is this General Chaz
who's like a guy on the ground
yeah
is this like a spicy sauce
or his blood and guts
what's going on here
I don't think I've ever seen
anyone like get hit
like that
I've seen some
motorcycle accidents
some?
you ride motorcycles?
no I don't
yeah
no
neither do I
fuck no
I feel like that's just
a surefire
even a vest
even like a scooter
like you're gonna fucking get in an accident yeah it's just a surefire. Even like a scooter, like you're going to fucking get in an accident.
Yeah.
It's just a matter of time.
Horribly.
I think it'd be nice to be on a Vespa,
catcall some women, you know?
Just be like,
Hey, mama!
Mama!
And they hop on the back with their sundress
like flapping in the wind.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, where you just do that like Cuomo thing
where you go,
I didn't harass him, I'm Italian.
Exactly.
I was just goosing her titty. I'm an Italian.
It's our way. I say hello, I grab him by the pussy
and I pitch the race.
What do you want me to say? I fingered the broad.
It's our way.
What do you want me to say?
You don't have any, Irish people
don't really have that, huh? That's some bullshit.
Like, excuses? Yeah.
Yeah. You guys just own it. yeah i did that yeah you just fucking owned it makes it stronger dudes just said what
you do when you first when you were living in that apartment uh or the shared house what were
you doing for work what were you doing as your first job up here i had two jobs i was i was in
construction uh as a laborer and then I had a bartender,
like a waiting job.
Yeah.
So I'd work every day in construction
and then I'd go after that,
I'd go to the fucking bartender.
Non-union construction?
What kind of shit were you building?
All sorts of dumb shit.
Just,
there was one job I had,
it was like,
we were just,
it was horrible.
It was like one of these penthouses up over, overlooking Central Park.
And it was one of these women and her husband.
So this is how rich this cunt was.
Excuse me.
And she, her husband was like one of these original brokers on Wall Street and he set
up some firm.
I can't remember, but he died and she was a billionaire.
Damn.
Holy shit.
She owned the top floor
of like,
there's like a big famous hotel
up there.
Maybe it's the Four Seasons
or something.
The top 10 or 20 stories
are all just apartments.
Yeah.
So she owned one of them
and she collected memorabilia
and stuff.
So she had like
Michael Jackson's glove
and weird shit like that.
Unnecessarily rich.
Just so rich.
And so that house was worth
like whatever,
you know, 40 million.
And then she bought
two floors below.
So she bought both of those floors
and then they,
they renovated it
so that it became like
one apartment.
And then it took them
like seven years to renovate it.
So she spent like 100 million
buying two floors
and then didn't even move in there
because it was just taking so long. She just didn't even move in there because it was just
taking so long
she just had like
old jackets in there
like it was a hard rock cafe
or some shit like that
yeah yeah
someone was showing me photos
he's walking around
like you walk down her hallway
it's just like
fucking Marilyn Monroe
it was like white dress
in a little box
that's so weird
that's preposterous
but you have so much money
it's like what else
you might as well
buy something
and so what
you worked on that
yeah so I
yeah we were
I was trying to
scrape the paint
off the fucking balcony
so I would just be
in the freezing cold
like it's January
it's like you're
40 stories up
damn
that's fucking brutal
and I'm just
every day
just scraping this paint
and there was
all these other
Mexican kids
and what we would do
is we would like
it was so cold
you'd work for like
20 minutes
and then you'd run inside because it was a balcony
and then we would all like huddle together like
penguins trying to fucking warm up
just like the saddest thing.
It's just the saddest. And then you go, alright, back out guys
and we'd run out and scrape, scrape, scrape, scrape, scrape
and then you'd run back in.
Jesus Christ. Pissing on each other for
warmth. Yeah, exactly.
Kiss my mouth. Whatever we could do.
Where you guys,
I feel like there's,
I feel like a lot of construction workers
get fucked up,
like smoke a ton of weed
before they go in at lunch,
like drink a bunch.
Was it that kind of job
or were you guys
just like grinding all day,
like fueling up
with a bunch of food
at lunch
and then just enough
to get some energy
to finish the day?
Yeah, just grinding all day,
I guess.
That sucks.
I'm not much of a drug and work guy.
No.
I have tried to do that before,
where I just smoke a bunch of weed,
trying to kill the hours,
but it just gets too...
It's like the job is more annoying than...
I feel like that would suck.
All right, time to work again.
And you're like, oh!
God, I'm always working.
Chill out, man.
There's a construction site across the street from me.
And the dudes, like, every one of them has, like, a personalized blunt to their face before they go on the job in the morning.
It looks fucking awesome.
They're just having a fucking, like, powwow full circle, just getting obliterated and, like, putting up, like, siding or, like, fucking, like like putting in electricity or some shit to a building.
It's like, seems fun.
There's something, it does make you feel more of a man when you've got these horrible manual labor jobs.
Like you do like when your hands are all caught up and stuff like that and your shoulders hurt.
And you're just like just sitting in a bar where you're fucking dirty construction,
fucking clothes, just eating chicken wings and drinking a beer.
There's something like you go, I'm going to fuck someone up.
Yeah, yeah.
I'm going to fucking crack someone
with these steel toe boots
to the fucking head, dude.
That is manly as fuck.
That's awesome.
It does make you feel
kind of manly.
Yeah, it's a weird one.
I had to get a job like that.
Yeah, just like on the side.
You need to just moonlight.
Keep doing your skits.
That's right.
So how long after you
moved to New York
did you start
like doing stand up
like did you start
right away
no
I don't think I did
I don't think I got
on stage here
the first week
I did a couple of
open mics
and then I was just
working non-stop
for like six months
so I didn't do anything
for like six months
I just tried to
it's tough when you
move here
you don't have
no money
I'm just like
and then I'm just
boozing all the time
too and open mics stink
in New York
it takes a lot
to even just do
an open mic
so then it just
took forever
and then
I've kind of been
on and off
like it's like
it depends on
how my life is
because I've been
bartending too
so you can't really
do comedy
when you're bartending
but COVID
kind of helped
everything for me
because
my bar closed down
so then I was
just podcasting
all the time
and because of
the podcast
I was able to
get some sort
of a little
bit of a
recognition
on the scene
and now things
are back open
I got past
the stand
I'm in the
cellar
oh you got
past the
stand
got past
the stand
got past
the cellar
too
that must have
fired you up bro
not really
I've never
I think I should have
been in there years ago
they suck
the comics suck
but I'm like that
with everywhere
I'm just like
I should
if I achieve
I've already believed
that I should have
everything
so when it happens
I'm like yeah of course
people are like congratulations I was like yeah So when it happens, I'm like, yeah, of course.
People are like, congratulations.
I was like, yeah, it's long overdue.
I was like, I'm embarrassed to only be getting this now.
Really?
I was like, delete my number.
That's the way I am.
I genuinely just believe that it's all going to work out.
So when it does happen, I'm like, yeah,
I've always said this is going to happen.
Fuck yeah.
What about when other people become successful does that piss you off
yes dude
that pisses me off
wait what colour are they
hold on
give me some details
tell me more about them
you've uh
you've been past
the stand for a while though
right
yeah
yeah
yeah
that was another fluke
I just
I showed up
some guy was designing
like a poster for me
and he was working
at the stand
and I showed up
to help him
but I would never hang out at these places because it's gay and but like comics do that designing like a poster for me and he was working at the stand and i showed up to help him but i
would never hang out at these places because it's gay and but like comics do that yeah i never
understood that either they'll just like sit there and they'll take out hey sd and just yeah they'll
take out their laptop and i'm just writing some material and you go what are you doing dude you
psycho and it was like who's the weirdo and he like, I'm a comic and I'm just showing. People just go there like every day.
And even if they have no sets.
No, they'll just hang out.
It's okay if you kind of know some comics that are there.
But if you're just on your own, it's just, it doesn't.
It's transparent.
It's like, you know what's going on.
It's just weird.
And especially if you're not funny.
Because you can't just hang out.
You can't network your way into.
Because now everyone's like, who's that guy?
Oh, he's an unfunny guy but now
now everyone's just going
oh who's the guy
on the laptop
he's just an unfunny guy
he's unfunny
that guy is purely unfunny
and they wouldn't have known
you were unfunny
if you hadn't have shown up
you could have got away with it
yeah
you just shoved your presence
in everybody's face
they have to acknowledge
what they think of you
whether they like you or not
dude I feel like
you've barely touched your bagel sandwich it was it was it was dry yeah it's not good don't eat
the rest of it'll probably make you sick will it yeah what's going on is this is like water eggs
you know like the powdered eggs oh it is it's like that okay yeah it's a little prisonish
whatever bro but at the stand i was there with the with the guy, and then someone didn't show up for a set,
so they just threw me up.
Really?
They had no other comic.
It just happened to be that I was there, and then the owner was there, and it went well.
And then he was like, all right, you're in.
So I never had to audition or anything like that.
Damn.
That's lucky as fuck.
Isn't that the same thing that happened to you with The Cellar, too?
Similar?
I mean, you didn't have to audition for that either, right?
Yeah, I don't know why.
I was booked on a show
and I think the owner saw me on that show
and then I had to send in a tape
and then I just got passed.
But who knows?
The thing is, The Cellar is,
you know, it's this big thing, right?
Or at least it used to be
before the internet, right?
So The Cellar is like,
oh, we got to get in there
and everything.
And it's great, a milestone,
but a lot of people don't,
they don't stay in there
like a lot of people
get passed
and then they'll just
let you work there
for like three weeks
and then they kind of like
ah it didn't work out
what do you mean
it didn't work out
because like the book
they'll just see you
do comedy for three weeks
and then you might not be great
oh they might not
keep on booking you
no
that happens to a lot of comics
they'll get in
and then they just get out
so I hope I stay in
fuck yes dude you gotta hold get them by the fucking choke hold I'm gonna fucking nail bomb the motherfucker It happens to a lot of comics. They'll get in and then they just get out. So I hope I stay in. Fuck yes, dude.
You got to hold,
get them by the fucking choke hold.
I'm going to fucking
nail bomb the motherfuckers.
Yeah, you have to nail bomb them.
That's the way to stay in comedy.
If I get unbooked,
I'm nail bombing.
Yeah, you have to.
So make no mistake,
the ball's in your court now.
Fuck yeah.
No.
Yeah, I'm ringing up,
I'm ringing up Esty.
I've never even gotten
to second base because of you.
Trying to disguise your voice.
Block Colm Tyrrell.
Do not take Colm Tyrrell off the avails.
Colm, is this you, Colm?
No.
Big Dick.
Colm and his big dick.
Just a fan of his.
I just love his work. And then i name an enemy of mine yeah
stop fucking shane gillis
you're a fucking known enemy everybody knows you guys fucking hate each other
yeah that's famous across new york yeah absolutely fuck yes dude yeah i. Yeah. I need to come and see you, dude.
Dude, yeah, come on.
Yeah, absolutely.
And you also linked up with some dudes
on some podcast shit.
Some Philly dudes.
Yeah, yeah.
You're talking about like Stuff Island and stuff?
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they're all my friends.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, they're your friends.
Why'd you become friends with so many dudes from Philly?
That's just the crowd that came up.
Yeah?
Yeah, most comics in New York for the longest time are like from Philly. There's just, that's just the crowd that came up. Yeah. Yeah, most comics in New York
for the longest time
are like from all over.
And there's very few comics
that would be like me.
You know, like there's
a working class background.
I don't know if you say that over here,
but you know.
You know, of course.
There's a couple of like New Jersey scumbags
and stuff that I was friends with,
but then like they tend to just stay
doing their construction job.
Whereas the people that survive
in New York are like Harvard
fucking writers and their daddy's paying
their fucking rent. You're talking about Francis?
I'm talking about Francis.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Blood Diamond, Francis Ellis.
Not the fucking rough
and tumble filly dudes who are fucking
steam feeders. Yeah, so
they're all the type of people that I've always been friends with,
but they never quite
made it in New York.
And then Shane came along
and then he was able
to shine a light
on all those kids.
And I say kids,
like they're all
in their 30s or 40s.
Yeah.
But like,
that's great for them.
You know,
a lot of the same
all over the country.
There's like funny people everywhere.
They just,
you need an opportunity
to get that light shined on you.
And then Shane was able to do that.
Like he was able to show them all.
So I'm of, I get on with all those guys.
Tommy Pope, Chris O'Connor.
Yeah.
Mike Rainey, Tim Butterly.
Yeah.
All the kids over there.

Are you garbage?
They all came up from like helium and shit like that.
Fucking.

Yeah.
Just grinding in Philly.
That's sweet though.
It's sweet that they're all fucking crushing it now.
And sometimes you just need like the networking of a podcast,
like a,

like a couple of podcasts you could just kind of throw together and just
like,

I'm on your show.
Fucking build up a,
like people know each other from that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And then like 10 years.
It's better than sitting and fucking typing jokes in public.
Yeah.
But 10,
10 years ago,
like,
you know,
they wouldn't have had the podcast and stuff
so they wouldn't have had
like you can't just
make people
popular
you know what I mean
so now because they have
the podcast
people can actually reach out

doing a very good job
