This is Table Talk, the bonus episode from Live from the Table, which is the official podcast of the world-famous comedy seller.
Table Talk is available wherever you get your podcasts, but you know that because you're listening to us.
This is Dan Aderman. I'm with Perrielle, the co-host of Table Talk, Perrielle Ashenbrand.
And we got a full compliment today. Everybody decided that was on the main episode decided to stick around.
So we're blessed to have Mr. Noam Dorman, owner of the world famous and ever expanding,
still ascendant comedy seller.
Nothing lasts forever,
but the comedy seller is still going strong.
Let the word go forth.
We have with us Carmen Lynch,
a comedy seller,
regular,
and she's taping her special.
We might as well plug it on the bonus episode.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Well,
you're taping your special Monday,
June 26th,
Comedy Cellar Village
Underground.
Tickets at
CarmenComedian
on Instagram,
link in bio.
And your special
is going to be called
what?
I'm thinking about it,
but I'm not saying it yet.
Okay, and we also have
with us Mr. Kruger Dunn.
Not his real name,
but that's his nom de guerre.
And he has a sub stack
and he's a comic.
He is, yeah, a comic.
And we found out recently he was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder.
But you wouldn't necessarily know it right away.
Speaking of specials, I have a special that I'm doing.
These people, they're producing specials using mostly comics that have been added a while.
And they're paying us an okay amount of money.
And I don't know how they're going to make it back, but that's their problem.
I thought we were going to reframe how you say that.
What's that?
I thought we were going to reframe.
Oh, maybe you thought that.
I just speak my mind.
The name of my special, we've been discussing.
I thought that
what would I think
was good?
I never
learn, which was a catchphrase I used
briefly in the 90s.
Periel came up with a little bit bananas
because I have a joke about a banana,
about my sex ed teacher using a banana to demonstrate condom use.
I know that joke.
Wait, did you already record this? Just curious.
No, I didn't record this special.
That joke's very famous.
And I'm a little bit bananas, so there's a double meaning there.
But I did think of another idea uh laugh out loud runny
asterisk funny as the name of the spanish laugh out loud runny asterisk funny no because i first
of all i have a joke where i talk about people correcting their spelling you know in when you
say somebody like my friend texted me, I'll be there soon,
I gotta park the cat, and then two minutes later,
two seconds later, I gotta text asterisk
car. So that's one of my
jokes. Laugh out loud.
Runny, asterisk funny.
Oh, runny, and then you don't, it's not actually the word
asterisk, then you put an asterisk. No, I put
the word asterisk, just to make it clear. Or
funny as Nell, asterisk hell. Runny, like
runny eggs?
Yeah.
Mis-typed funny.
I mis-typed funny, so it's laugh out loud runny asterisk funny.
Very inside base, like feels very specific.
Well, but everybody knows about correcting your spelling.
Listen, I get it.
But Periel's married to laugh a little bit bananas.
It's not just because I came up with it.
It's a great fucking thing.
The theory of relativity is brilliant.
You had a good idea.
I don't deny that it was a fine idea.
Brilliant is not the word I was using.
Decent is a fine idea.
What was Peril's idea?
A little bit bananas.
A little bit bananas.
A little bit bananas as a reference to my banana joke, but also-
As a reference to you.
As a reference to me more generally.
Not bad, a little bit bananas. So you prefer that to- It's also clean also as a reference to you. As a reference to me, more generally. Not bad, a little bit bananas.
So you prefer that to...
It's also clean and clear and easy to understand.
So you prefer that to laugh out loud,
runny, asterisk funny.
A little bit asterisk bananas.
I guess nobody...
That has to be explained 12 times.
You're right.
I didn't think it would be that hard.
A little bit banana.
Nicole, did you not get that right away?
No, I had no idea what you were talking about.
Okay, fair enough.
Fair enough.
It's more obvious if you read it.
It's a visual thing, yeah. If you read it, but people might talk about it, I had no idea what you were talking about. Okay, fair enough. It's more obvious if you read it.
If you read it, but people might talk about it. I don't know.
Alright, look, I have to
face
the fact that that was not obvious
to anybody, or even slightly
amusing. Alright, I get it.
So far, A Little Bit Bananas
is number one.
That would be a good title for your special.
Do you think that...
Not obvious to anyone, not even slightly amusing.
Twisted Lens is another one I thought of,
because I see things through a twisted lens.
What about...
Thinly Veiled Madness, I thought might was interesting.
What do you guys think of those choices?
Are you, with Perrielle, A Little Bit Bananas,
which I think is great.
What about A Little Bit Nan nananas asterisk bananas?
Oh, that's interesting.
You combined both things.
That's not bad. I'm kidding.
Are you distributing it yourself
to get product management? No, no, no.
This company is going to try to find a home
for it. Maybe it'll just wind up on YouTube like
so many other specials. That's fine. I don't
have to pay for it. That's the beauty of it.
You want people to watch it. They're going to watch it at the distribution channel,
or they're going to watch it because they're a fan of you, or they're going to search for it.
Those are the three ways people are going to watch it.
Okay.
This is also advice for Carmen.
Either name it based on what the distribution company insists, or what will get searched the most.
Like, what jokes do you have that are commonly searched?
I don't know that I have that many, but bananas, that's my most famous joke,
is the banana joke. Do people search for
bananas? I don't know. You could put bananas into the
Google keyword tool and see
what, maybe it'll come, sometimes it's the
weirdest thing, like how to pick bananas has
13,000 searches a day. I would
name it how to pick bananas.
I'm just learning this title.
You really want to go with a title that has really nothing to do with
anything except that people search for it?
Just a couple weeks ago, you talked about Baby J.
Oh, no, it should have something to do with it.
It should have bananas because that's the joke you have, which is, by the way, super famous.
I told my friend I was coming on this podcast.
He hadn't heard of it, you.
And then I said the Mr. Morales joke.
And he's like, I love that joke.
Oh, OK.
So it is a good choice for the one to name.
OK, so a little bit bananas for now is the frontrunner.
Maybe you can put in the title the idea that Louis C.K. likes your joke.
Like the first Jackson 5 album was like Diana Ross presents the Jackson 5.
Well, I don't want to use Louis in that way.
I don't think he'd appreciate it.
Louis C.K.'s favorite joke.
Especially if he didn't.
I mean, he may or may not find out, but I don't know that he'd appreciate it.
He'll never know.
On the record that it's his favorite joke.
Louis C.K. Presents, what are you suggesting?
I don't know.
As he's talking about the name as an actual strategic decision
to get views rather than just, you know.
A name that we think is cool or interesting.
You know, there's a buyer's market and a seller's market.
When you're the Beatles, you can name your album Abbey Road.
Right.
Right?
But when you're Dan Aderman,
you want the name itself to somehow entice people to watch it.
Well, but this is also advice for Carmen.
She has not yet named her special.
I mean, I have a few options.
Do you want us to discuss them? I'm not ready to discuss them.
Do you want to workshop them?
Yeah, you don't want to workshop them?
Not yet.
Okay, fine.
You can come back.
To what extent are you going to incorporate searchability?
Well, now that he said that, I'm going to look at these words.
I'm going to look up these words.
Well, that was one of the things that I had said, though,
was that the other good thing about a little bit bananas
was that it starts with an A.
And so...
I could just name it...
Triple A special?
No, because that starts with a T.
No, but I just...
Like in the phone book.
Hard bar cleaners.
But if you're in the top ten albums of the specials
of the year, you'll be listed first.
Right, because it's an A.
That's true.
No, but it's a good. That's true. Okay, but then I could just go like A, triple A, triple A.
No, but it's a good title also.
We discussed this.
When they announce your name as a Grammy nominees,
you'll be first.
If you send me all your title choices,
I'll run it through my social.
Okay, okay, okay.
Well, you're on mine.
Sure.
Oh, you should do that.
Just send it to me on Instagram.
I'll run it for you.
Are we friends on any of the episodes?
I mean, I follow you.
I don't.
Okay, so now I know your real name, which you won't reveal on the air.
We have a common friend, Daniel Lobel.
Oh, you're friends with him?
Oh, we know Danny.
Okay.
You haven't seen him in a while, but I certainly...
He goes by Daniel now.
Oh, Daniel.
He's a serious man.
I think he's a Danny, too.
A lot of comedians do that when they feel like,
there's something not working.
I know.
It's my name.
I've got to change it from William to Billy.
That's not
Bill Burr, by the way. I do know
somebody. But apropos
of changing names, we talked
on I think it was the last episode about Jon Stewart
or two episodes ago. Would
Jon Leibovitz have achieved the
same success as Jon
Stewart? Yes, no,
maybe in your estimation?
I don't know.
I don't know.
There are plenty of people who have crazy names who seem to be fine.
Well, Sarah Silverman, that hasn't stopped her.
Right.
But she was never a sex symbol in the way Stewart was.
I'm tempted to say it wouldn't have made too big a difference.
I don't think so.
If you're that talented and that everything, I don't really think.
On the other hand, Leibowitz is just really bad.
Seth Meyers.
It's very hard to spell.
I could not spell Leibowitz.
What's the guy, M. Shaliam?
M. Night Shyamal?
Yeah, I mean.
Yeah, no one can say that.
But he's not an on-air, you know, personality.
What's the M's thing for him?
It's probably even harder.
He's still short in it.
I don't, you know, now that I think of it, I'm not, you know, I don't know.
Because first you have to clear the initial hurdle, which is the industry.
Okay?
And that's the initial hurdle.
Even if the public is going to love you and adore you, somebody had to say,
Jon Stewart, we want you to host a daily show.
Jon Stewart wasn't going to create his own daily show.
So somebody had to give him that show.
Okay?
As good as he was doing it, no one would know.
Oh, thank you.
Naj Neryatu Shalaman.
I performed at his house for his father's 80th birthday.
Was there a surprise ending?
Well, the surprise was that they hired a Jewish guy.
The guy could have afforded a Z's or, you know, some other comic from...
Are you assuming they love Aziz for any particular reason?
Well, I'm assuming that it was all Indians.
It was maybe two white people that had married in, but all Indians.
And I just felt, why are they hiring me for this?
The thing that's hilarious about this...
Who do you think they confused you with?
Huh?
Who do you think they confused you with?
No, they wanted me or whatever.
Adrian Brody.
The thing that's amazing about this is that this guy actually changed his name.
Like, M. Night.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
His friends call him Night, by the way.
This is like the Jon Stewart of the Jon Weaver.
But anyway, getting back to my point, if I may.
This is different.
Somebody had to offer John Stewart not just the Daily Show,
but the stuff that he did prior to the Daily Show.
And would they have offered John Leibowitz that show?
I don't know.
You know, maybe not.
And without that.
But why risk it?
John Stewart wasn't going to make it just on brilliance alone.
Somebody had to give him a show.
Right.
Why would he give himself his own show?
How about Harrison Greenberg? just on brilliance alone, somebody had to give him a show. Why would he give himself his own show? In the era of podcasting,
maybe he could have made a name for himself that way,
but that would have been 15 years later.
You're talking about Harrison Greenbaum?
Harrison, well, first of all,
Harrison's not a big star.
That might happen.
You don't think his name's standing in his way?
No, but then again,
he's selling a different product than Jon Stewart.
He's living a different product.
Okay, you were going to talk about, you had something else that you wanted to talk about.
Oh, Al Pacino.
Well, I don't know.
We could talk about, I'm just going to give a selection of topics.
No, I have something to talk about.
All right, Al Pacino is 83 years old and apparently is having a kid with this 28 year old woman.
Nor alfalfa.
Was your dad old? Because old sperm tends to cause autism.
He was mid-30s.
Wow, that's reasonable.
Did it work?
Or was it like a
artificial insemination
with his... My dad? No.
I don't know
that we have that level of detail.
I think all we know so far is that his girlfriend is pregnant with his child.
She's able to have sex.
I want to know if he's able to have sex.
Oh, I'm sure he's probably popped a Viagra, don't you think?
Yeah, I guess.
I would imagine.
Even Viagra...
But 83, I mean...
Trust me.
I mean, 83 arguably doesn't mean what it used to mean in terms of being elderly, but it's pretty fucking old.
83 is the new 75.
It's pretty fucking up there.
Can you have a kid?
I guess you can.
Of course you can.
I know somebody's father was 90.
Really?
You know, you hear that about these Civil War widows that are still alive because they were 13 and their husband was 90.
Can we just talk about this?
She dated somebody old before she dated him.
Yes.
What the hell?
I was like, get the couple.
Who did she date before she dated Al Pacino?
Oh, she dated Jagger.
She dated Mick Jagger.
So she has a type.
So she has a type.
An age.
Let's talk about his face.
Let's talk about if that was reversed and the woman was 83 and the guy was 29.
Let's talk about if the sun rose in the West.
It just doesn't happen.
No, but it's such a fucking enraging double standard.
Oh, Perrielle.
What?
Oh, Perrielle.
It's outrageous.
Why is it a double standard?
If it was the opposite, people would say that's really weird.
And people are saying this is really weird.
The other one, I see what you're saying,
but it's not completely fair because,
because he's clearly impregnating her to have a baby.
You can't impregnate a 82 year old woman. I mean,
do you know what I mean? Like he's clearly using her. I mean,
he might have feelings for her, but he wants to like produce.
You really think he wants to have this baby? You don't think she's,
yeah, she's got, somebody wants to have a baby, but you can't put an 82-year-old
woman with a young guy because she's
it's different.
The 82-year-old woman can't get pregnant.
But as far as how society views
a relationship like that,
society is viewing this
unfavorably, mostly. I don't
think that's true. I think they're looking at it unfavorably
because it's in some way not fair to the child.
That, but I think they're looking at Al Ply because it's in some way not fair to the child. That, but I think they're looking at Al Pacino like you're an old creep who is dating a 28-year-old that's ridiculous.
I've not gotten that impression at all.
None of anybody's business.
Well, I'm just saying how it's viewed, whether you agree or disagree.
That's how it's, I think, viewed by most people.
I just see a woman who wants to have a child.
With a famous millionaire.
With a famous guy.
That's it.
I don't see love or I don't see...
Do you not
think it's possible to love? I mean...
Yeah, maybe there's like caring, but I don't
imagine them like, where are we going to build
our house together?
Right, because he already built that. Well, because he's
going to be dead in five years.
There is the point that
even if he lives to be the
oldest man that ever lived,
his child will be like 25 when he dies. No, if he was the oldest man that ever lived, his child will be like 25 when he dies.
No, if he was the oldest man that ever lived,
it would be like 116.
So that's still like almost 40 years away.
That's still pretty young.
And he's not going to be functional for 20 years.
I want to ask Carmen,
do you have a top limit of men that you could be with?
I always liked older.
I have this weird
daddy whatever.
But like
not that.
So 70 would be too old?
No, I wouldn't date 70.
60?
Let's just say 10 years older.
I would have a baby with Al Pacino.
What about Perrie?
I know that as a younger woman
you hit on Philip Roth.
Well, I think that Philip Roth hit on me.
And you weren't disgusted by it?
No, not at all.
So what age is your upper limit now as a 40-plus woman?
I don't know that I have one.
I've always liked older guys.
It also depends on, do you take care of yourself?
How do you look?
Are you Al Pacino?
Do you have dementia?
Like, you know, there's a lot of.
Well, look, if you're looking to build a future with somebody,
obviously an 83-year-old man, you know, his life expectancy,
assuming he's in perfect health at 83,
what's your life expectancy at 83 if you're in perfect health?
Five years, ten years? Something like that, yeah. So, you know, I mean, and that's if he's in perfect health at 83, what's your life expectancy at 83 if you're in perfect health? Five years, 10 years?
Something like that, yeah.
So, you know, I mean,
and that's if he's in perfect health,
which he may not be.
Listen, but as far as 83-year-old men go,
I'll bet Al Pacino's pretty fun.
Pretty fun, for sure.
Like, if you're going to fuck an 83-year-old guy.
Fuck him.
Have fun and fuck him.
Don't, like, say...
I'm the only one for him.
I've had...
I shouldn't say that.
Well, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Now everyone wants to hear it.
You've had younger women be into you.
Is that what you're.
No, no.
I'm talking about years ago.
I've had.
I've had women who wanted just like just just the sperm.
Like they just want to have the baby.
Like they didn't want.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm sure she wants to have Al Pacino.
She's super talented.
Absolutely.
And who wouldn't?
But how risky is 83-year-old sperm?
It's risky.
I mean, somewhat risky, yeah.
He probably has a trove of frozen semen somewhere.
Oh.
You know what?
I'm thinking he has young sperm frozen somewhere.
Of course he does.
Yeah, for sure.
Men make sperm all the time.
But a young, healthy sperm.
You don't want that.
There seems to be some
association with all the sperm
and autism. I think I read that
once.
Most sperms are healthy.
Even at 83, they're not in a little
wheelchair.
If it has motility,
it weeds out.
They can genetically test all of that. They can't genetically test for autism. If it has motility, and usually it weeds out, the whole process weeds out.
They can genetically test all of that.
But they can't genetically test for autism.
Yeah, no, not autism.
There are a few things they can't test.
Right.
This was definitely tested before.
Like, that was, I would guess.
But autism can't be tested.
I'm sure they tested the fetus or the zygote for whatever.
Yeah, I'm sure she, like, yeah.
Nicole, can I ask you if I could just very quickly? the fetus or the zygote for whatever. Yeah, I'm sure she... Down syndrome. Did you say down syndrome?
Nicole, can I ask you if I could just very quickly...
Nicole's a very young woman in her 20s.
Do you have an upper age limit?
And what would that be?
Probably 45, and then I'd cap it out.
45 is pretty old for you.
I'm 27.
Look, two things I want to say about this.
Yeah, that's a healthy age difference.
Nobody has, people think they have an
age limit, but life
puts you in situations
and through exposure and spending time,
all of a sudden you find yourself charmed in some
way by someone younger, someone older
than you ever imagined.
Because this age limit thing is just a theory.
Right, but in real life we don't see
this level of age difference very frequently.
How long have they been together?
With rich, famous people, we do.
With famous people?
Even with famous people, this is...
Even by famous standards, this is a whopper of an age.
But I want to say something even more offensive.
Okay.
And I've said this before.
Well, good.
We want to be controversial.
It makes sense evolutionarily
that it would be less likely for a younger man to be attracted to an older woman than vice versa for reasons Carmen alluded to. for passing on your genetic material, which is what evolution is, there's really no downside for a woman
to not be attracted to an older man,
especially if he's successful
and can be a protective and, you know,
help, what's the word,
like a high-quality mate.
Right.
There's no...
But he can't be around to raise that child
beyond another 10 years statistically. But there's still... But he might't be around to raise that child beyond another 10 years.
Maybe.
But there's still...
But he might be
the head of the tribe,
whatever you can...
There's various scenarios
where it still makes sense.
I mean, this is a very primal...
This is the way the world works.
He is the godfather.
Why do you think
you're attracted to men?
Because you were born
with that desire
because that's how
the species exists.
But just appropriate? Yes, that's the reason's how the species exists. Through attraction instead.
Yes, that's the reason. Yes, just appropriate.
So,
now there's no reason in the world
that it would be
counterproductive for the species
to have fertile men
going around banging
post-menopausal women.
That would be a waste of...
I just had this argument today.
Now, you can say this is painful, whatever it is.
You know, Camille Paglia said nature is the oppressor,
but you understand the logic of that.
Yeah, it's also rooted in patriarchy.
No, no, it's exactly...
You don't understand the logic of that.
It feels like a business decision, though. It feels like she's
going to get money once she has the baby. He'll die.
The baby will be fine. She always
wanted to have a baby.
That's her favorite option
of all the guys that have hit on her.
It's her favorite movie.
And he's the only
of the Godfather.
He's the only one left. Brando's
gone. Tessio.
Clemenza.
Khan is gone.
Is anybody left in that cast?
Diane Keaton.
Well, she can't have a baby with Diane Keaton or any male cast members of The Godfather.
Now, that's the patriarchy speaking.
If that was a regular 82-year-old man, she wouldn't be there.
Robert Duvall is still alive.
Duvall is still alive?
Yeah.
He's the oldest.
How old is he?
He's got to be 90.
I saw him.
He looks fantastic.
Well, as a man that's not getting any younger,
and I guess none of us are,
it's nice to see a man that can still bang at 83.
In fact, that's how we got him pregnant.
If that's how he did it.
I think it's past the point where it's weird and we object to it.
Like, I think if he was 65, people would be more mad.
Now, at 83, it's so clear that he's not going to be around and this is a decision she's making.
So she has her autonomy, which is what removes it from the patriarchal.
Female autonomy.
No, listen, the thing that's enraging about all of this to me is that not even in this conversation is anybody like,
what's the oldest woman you would date?
It's a good question.
I don't know if that's infuriating.
I'm glad you asked that question.
How old is Lucinda?
As old as I'm physically attracted to.
Which would be?
83?
I find myself generally 45 is the upper limit of what I typically would be.
Which is still younger than you.
Yeah, still quite.
Well, not too much younger
I'm super attracted to my wife still
but apparently Puerto Rican women can still get pregnant
when they've had menopause
I read that somewhere
Noam's wife
I don't want to be rude
I don't want to be disrespectful
but Noam's wife who is I think 50
is still attractive
My wife looks good That's a funny joke You can use that if you want disrespectful, but Norm's wife, who is, I think, 50, is still attractive, yes. I find her attractive.
My wife looks good.
That's a funny joke.
You can use that if you want.
That is funny.
Yeah, as long as I'm attractive to him.
But generally, as a general matter,
that usually starts to fade at 45-ish.
But I've spent my life avoiding intimacy and closeness anyway.
It's a moot question, but still
an interesting one. Do you find
yourself avoiding it a little bit less
as you get older? No, I'm just more
entrenched in my ways. I just never
oddly enough, like the idea of
I don't feel like
Lord knows I have my problems, but I don't feel
lonely necessarily.
I have friends
I think, right?
I'm your lonely, necessarily. I have friends, I think, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm your friend, man.
Yeah, you know, I come to the comedy side.
And I'm not alone.
I mean, we've got a laundry list of guys that I don't even know have ever had a girlfriend.
We got fucking Attell.
We got fucking Judah Friedlander.
Don't diss Attell.
Yeah.
First of all, Attell's had girlfriends, right?
That's not a diss.
Women are attracted to Attell. That's First of all, Attell's had girlfriends, right? That's not a dis. Women are attracted to Attell.
That's not the point I'm making.
The point I'm making is, is he a relationship guy?
And I'm not seeing evidence of it.
We're talking about marriage right now?
No, we're just talking about relationship.
Because if you were just attracted to a woman, I wouldn't even ask her age.
I already know I'm attracted.
You know what I mean?
But at what age do you find yourself not being so attracted to women?
I said Lucy Liu.
I don't know how old she is.
What if a woman said to you, what if you're with a woman and you find her completely attractive,
and one day she's like, I'm cutting my hair and I'm going to stop coloring it.
It's going to be gray and short.
What would you...
That's a good question.
I assume that will happen.
My wife doesn't have gray hair yet, but I assume one day it will be.
I'll be fine with that.
Hey, girl, I don't care.
I don't love short hair.
You say, girl, I don't care.
I'm not in love with your hair.
And if it all falls out, you know I'd still say that I'm going to love you forever.
I remember I dated a guy ages ago.
This was like probably before comedy, like in my, I don't know, mid-20s.
And I cut my hair.
And I agreed that it didn't look good because when you're tall
and you cut your hair i'm sorry no it's like a pixie it's like a pixie no i look like a boy i
just couldn't and i i could and he was like i liked it better long and i thought that was the
rudest thing because you can't regrow your hair and you know it yeah and he said it right in my
face and i'm like this guy is so done. I would never tell my wife.
No, of course not.
But if you like it,
it's fine.
Yeah.
I know.
Tell me the truth.
Is it true? This is why relationship counseling,
this is why I don't think
relationship counseling works.
Yeah.
Because if you told the truth,
that would be the end of your relationship.
So what you're saying,
don't tell the truth?
I'm saying,
you can't tell the truth.
If they're dying to know,
that's different from like, whatever. Did you ask? Did you ask't tell. If they're dying to know, that's different from like.
Did you ask?
No.
Okay, so that's different.
I mean, clearly I got a haircut.
Oh, you didn't even ask.
No, but he was like.
I mean, you want him, even if he's lying, you want something.
Clearly, maybe I said like, what do you think?
But like still lie then.
If I'm like really, really tell me.
I don't know.
You have a picture of you with the short hair?
No.
I would probably.
I would probably delete it.
I hated it.
I would probably like it because I tend to like that pixie, you know, twiggy look.
Yeah.
You know, for the 20s, you know, like who was that famous actress, Louise Brooks?
You can look her up.
Also, I will say... You know, with the short
1920s flapper. Yeah, yeah.
Smaller chested women also.
Even if I didn't like it, I'd
appreciate something different
sex-wise for like a week.
You know what I mean?
So like, something that makes...
I'd be like, I'm just gonna
put a wig on next time.
Literally any effort she makes is always welcome to me
regardless of the result
so maybe it's different for a married guy
can we get back to
just to finish this one
we've done a half hour we can certainly do more
or we can not
well I thought what you were starting to say was interesting that I asked you, are
you in your older age?
Oh yeah.
No, it's like, I don't feel like if society wasn't telling me that you're supposed to
have somebody that like is your person, like I wouldn't, I wouldn't come to that conclusion
on my own.
I come to that conclusion because I see everybody's doing it.
Right.
And, and, and most people are doing it.
So there's something to it.
I'm an odd bird, but I, I, I inhabit a world where it's not as odd as it normally would be.
I've mentioned Natal.
I mentioned Greg Rogel.
He's had girlfriends, but not in a while.
Judah Friedlander.
I'm sure there's others.
It's the idea of cohabitating.
I won't be the only one where nobody is visiting in the nursing home.
I mean, most people eat McDonald's,
but it's not good for you.
Right, I mean, I don't think that inherently...
Apparently, I would imagine there's something to it.
Everybody's doing it.
Even people with huge...
You know, a guy like Paul McCartney.
He could have spent his life with beautiful young models.
Well, he chose a woman with one leg.
Yeah, look, she fucking screwed him over.
Talk about wanting something different sex-wise.
He preferred to be...
This man went too far.
He preferred to be with one woman.
Now, maybe he cheated here and there,
but even if he did,
it's nowhere near the variety he could have gotten
if he were single.
So there's something to this,
obviously.
I'm the odd bird.
Well, wait a second.
50% of people who get married
do get divorced.
And then they get married again.
Yeah, sometimes.
Because they want that pair bond.
That's something,
evolution,
we talk about evolution,
you know,
it's all about raising kids.
And the monogamous couple,
or roughly monogamous, or kind of monogamous couple, or roughly monogamous,
or kind of monogamous couple,
I guess evolution has decided is the best way to raise a child.
Well, you know, obviously you could have a kid
without having, you know, a partner or a wife.
You can, but it seems that nature has decided
that the best way of going about it is a bonded couple.
So nature has decided the best way to go about it is a bonded couple. So nature said the best way to go about it is a bonded couple.
Nature's also decided that,
and if you can get some other dude to raise your kid without knowing it,
that's also a good way.
Oh, really?
Good money, sir.
Because back in those days when most of our evolution took place,
everybody was hanging out with a small group of people.
They all kind of looked alike.
So you couldn't really tell anyone.
Generally speaking, who's kid?
Like if it was me and Noman the shtetl, everybody looks like us.
Maybe if it was really tall, we'd be like, wait, did you fuck Goman?
Generally, we all look similar in the pale of settlement in Russia.
So it was easy to do.
The kid wouldn't look that different
throughout most of human history.
Well, this is really interesting.
I want to actually dive deeper into this next time.
We can certainly do that.
Oh, I wanted more. I'm ready.
More.
Well, if anybody has anything to say
or we can wrap it up at the bonus episode.
Hoo-ah!
I thought it was...
As Al Pacino impregnating bonus episode. Hooah! I thought it was... That's what it is. As Al Pacino,
impregnating his... Hooah!
Honey.
Well, it's too bad we can't get Al on the show
to give his thoughts,
but maybe he'll do Rogan.
It'll run long.
I would like to thank Mr. Kruger Dunn
for staying longer,
for coming to New York just to see us.
That's wonderful to hear.
