We're recording this before it's launched
Starting point is 00:01:31 I got in my head cuz one of my buddies I described to him the The podcast and he goes, oh, it's cute and ever since I've hated the idea That'll hurt you don't think when I came up with novelty journey to a boat podcast, people were, there was a lot of pushback. Okay, good, yeah. And it's not been successful. So who am I to say? Sometimes people are right.
Starting point is 00:01:54 Still don't have a boat, but you're working on it. You're close. I think the activities are so good. I think you can repeat activities as well. I'd say every kid you have, you definitely get set back behind the boat. You know, I get, every kid you have you definitely get set back behind the boat, you know, I get
Starting point is 00:02:10 Every kid you get definitely set you set you back before getting a boat Well, you you got here and I said get in the car and then you said what? Oh, the kids are in the car And I had they'd been we're moving at the moment. That's why we're in a garage on a couch and Yeah, they I had taken a brief. I took the kids this morning and my wife needed some respite So I just didn't expect to see three kids all in each individual car seat and a minivan in a closed Mini van in the garage. I just one door was open. Okay. I'm not Not making it sound like child abuse I just meant like we were so, it was so like, all right, let's move this couch. And then he's like, well, first of
Starting point is 00:02:49 all, we've got to go to the grocery store. And then I was like, all right, that's fine. And he's like, yeah, we got to go like right now. And then also the kids are in the car right now. It was time. I knew it was time. I'm so glad you got here on time because I was letting him in the car. I was like, CJ is going to show up and she's like, while you're out at the store. I was like, no, he's going to come. I'm so glad you got here on time, because I was letting him in the car. It ended up being me. And I was like, CJ's gonna show up, and she's like, while you're out at the store, I was like, no, he's gonna come, I think he's gonna be here very soon. It ended up me being, I mean, I had the really,
Starting point is 00:03:13 I don't know how you do it. We're walking around the grocery store. You were requested, is that the word? With three kids, I was, I don't know where it's. I drafted you into the army. But I was, I mean, I was so unprepared. It was like just storming the beach at Normandy, bullets were flying, kids were missing.
Starting point is 00:03:27 The James Donald Forbes McCann catamaran plan, board game funding shirt is out now. Board game funding, what does that mean? Yeah, so money from the shirt is going to pay the guy who's designing the board game, his name's Nick. Okay, so you're selling the shirt to get the board game, to get the boat. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Got it. Selling the shirt to get the money, to get, Amanda designed a board game, and then we're gonna split the board game 50-50, but I'm giving him an advance because he's doing the work on it. I'm yet to play the board game. I hope it's a good board game.
Starting point is 00:03:58 I'm told my opportunity to play is coming this week. That's incredible. We'll find out. I can't wait. I'm also not in the, it's not a James McCann themed board game. Okay. It's going to be about boats, but we want to break the whole board game market. I mean, you gotta, you kind of make a boat game to get the boat. I love the plan.
Starting point is 00:04:17 I've never, I mean, I'm telling you. What are ships made of? Planks. I'm going to be, I'm going to be honest. I'm from Louisiana and I've never heard someone have such a long-winded strategy to get a boat Well, you would think you would think Louisiana that would not be the case people people definitely have some roundabout ways To get people there for sure. You'd have guys who boaties who call us guys living on the boat on the river. Uh No, yeah for sure. They had well well, they have like- The first to die when the floods come. They had, well, they had, you know, there's a big, a big thing out there is shrimp boats. I mean, you can make good money doing shrimp boats, but they would have guys, yeah, they
Starting point is 00:04:53 would live like on the, like, you know, they have like the little, the deck inside and they would, yeah, they would live in the deck and they live on the dock and then they would just shrimp all day. What about, your, is your town on the river, it would just shrimp all day. What now? You as your town on the river is down river. It's like further down. It's near the gets. It's about 20 minutes outside the Gulf. OK, how many people?
Starting point is 00:05:16 Gulf of America, apparently. Thank you. How many people live in this town? How big is this? It's about 8000 people. So no comedy scene at all? No, I had to drive to, I drove to New Orleans the first few times I did it. Also no comedies, very small comedy scene.
Starting point is 00:05:33 About an hour away, yeah, I drove an hour to a city with no comedy scene. You would think that New Orleans would have a comedy scene. But everybody was like, oh, that's how, you know, that's the closest, that was the closest city. Actually, Baton Rouge had some like bar shows. Baton Rouge has a better comedy scene than New Orleans and it feels insane. Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.
Starting point is 00:05:52 That's wrong. There's bar shows. It's not it's not that crazy, but I would like to start a club in New Orleans. Lafayette has a has a pretty good comedy scene. They got they got a couple of rooms in the hotel. I make no sweet Lafayette. It makes no sense. I loved The entire state of Louisiana did you well what we saw we didn't get to st. Petersburg Okay, st. Fredericksburg. I mean st. Francisville st. Francisville. I just watched a Hallmark movie about st. Francisville
Starting point is 00:06:24 My wife and I watching Hallmark movies because apparently that's like They pay her like a hundred thousand dollars if you write a Hallmark movie. She's like I could write a Hallmark movie. I'm like please. And she did? Oh no we just watched one. Okay yeah. We watched one about St. Francisville. It's about a guy who's like like the whole town they're like I've never left St. Francisville and I never will and they're like this is a good thing because it's like good earthy hometown. I looked up on thing because it's a good earthy hometown I looked up on the map. It's like you 45 minutes from like Lafayette
Starting point is 00:06:51 Why wouldn't you go to Lafayette? Why wouldn't you go to Belarus? New Orleans is an hour and a half away and you never go there if you live in St. Francisville. That's insane It's a ridiculous premise for a film if it was in like Des Moines, Iowa I'd go like alright, no one's made the four-hour drive maybe Nowhere in Louisiana is very far away from something else in Louisiana. There's no reason not to get on the road. That's true I I Do that Lafayette is fur is further away from My hometown in New Orleans, though
Starting point is 00:07:22 New Orleans is just an hour flat. An hour? And then, yeah, and then St. Francisville was like, I mean Lafayette is like four hours, three hours away. All right, so it's like, still, is it, Lafayette is the one that's close to St. Francisville? I'm never going to St. Francisville. I believe so, yeah, it's far away from my hometown too. But my, I remember, the only thing I remember
Starting point is 00:07:44 about St. Francisville was my parents went there one time to try to I guess like have some sort of getaway reconstruct their marriage. How did it go? Did it work? It worked for a short period of time like most of those things do where they didn't work out in the end. I mean obviously they're I mean, obviously they're divorced now, but obviously they're they went to St. Francis. Everyone's parents are divorced now. They went to St. Francisville for some reason. But I think they had a horror movie in St. Francisville. And I'm pretty sure maybe it was a different city.
Starting point is 00:08:17 But there was this one horror movie that was based in Louisiana. And there was I forgot what it was called. I don't remember. It was like Skeleton Key was I forgot what it was called. I don't remember it was like Skeleton key, I think maybe skeleton key that made that in San Francisco where you couldn't look at the mirrors I know that was the movie I never saw skills Louisiana and they're like old house in Louisiana old white house That's where based in is like can't look in the mirrors and at the time I grew up in like a house I was built in the late 1800s. So sick.
Starting point is 00:08:45 In Louisiana, and really old mirrors, dude. Was it shotgun style? Some of them, I've seen these for the first time. No, it was like a tall, it was a tall shotgun style, basically, like, it really wasn't a shotgun style. You gotta walk through bedrooms in some of these houses to get to other bedrooms. Exactly, yeah, my mom lives in a shotgun home
Starting point is 00:09:04 in New Orleans right now, but. So she got out, she got out of your hometown. She got out of my hometown, mom lives in a shotgun home in New Orleans right now, but so she got out She got out of your hometown. She got a mom. She lives in the world. She lives in my grandma now, but yeah, and then my dad stays in Homa, but uh Yeah, no like I bro is like fourth grade or something and I was just ducking every single mirror Dude couldn't look in a mirror after that. you gotta be careful what you show children because they get well well it was just like I mean it couldn't hit more home I mean it was like oh this is a this is exactly where old home a lot of mirrors don't look at them may do Louisiana and I'm that's how I feel about Mad Max
Starting point is 00:09:38 when I'm out on those Australian rocks yeah this is this is where that goes down it's very spooky although they had to film I think the latest Mad Max are we gonna film in Australia again, but they shot it in they shoot it in Australia I just what Australia looks like once you get out of the cities. It's Mad Max for oh my country I don't want to overstate it Australians watching going like no some of its rainforest some of it is marshland some of it is inland sea Unbelievably mad maxi some of it. So you're telling me that there are cuz again I don't know and we talked about this on my pod. Yeah, I don't know anything about Australia
Starting point is 00:10:15 I know like five things wiggles kangaroos Koalas, it's the big three desert a big full beach It's the big three desert a big four beach Desert Beach, it's just sad. That's all I know crocodile Dundee. We have beautiful Hunter and Yeah, sure upon the bar. What you told me was a lie. It is a lie. So I mean that's really like I don't want to be thinking is that you dingin? No, that's you. No, it's you my funds over there Is it I think you're digging? No, no, I take it back. My laptops dingin
Starting point is 00:10:46 I got it set up, you know, like the laptop gets messages. How many things ding too many things? Yeah, yeah the laptop dings as well and it's funny when you block someone on the phone because they're being hateful and weird Still comes through on the laptop It's only like one guy but and I changed my number so he doesn't know what my number is now. This guy's... You have enemies here in America already. No I was an Australian enemy. Ah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah. That makes sense. I'll say this about him. I wouldn't... I don't call him an enemy. I call him a... there's a pause put on the friendship but he loves to like have a couple of drinkies and...
Starting point is 00:11:22 He's an antagonist. Oh boy Yeah Yeah, everybody in this group of friends gets uh Just a cat like long esoteric Are you hot? No, I just I forgot where I left my fosters. Oh, yeah That's uh, get the fosters, which we don't drink which yeah another another thing. I didn't even know about Australia I didn't I I forgot this was an was an Australian thing. I thought it was a UK Ireland beer Well, they also they that's where they sell it UK Ireland if you go to Scotland, you'll be able to buy a Foster's at the Edinburgh fringe. I'll tell you what I love the I love the beer hate the can't can't too big for you
Starting point is 00:12:02 It's just it's it's an unreasonably big. A bufta mate, a bufta. You can't have a big can. It's an unreasonable big can. Or a small can. CJ wants a small can. You believe that? It's just, it's like I'm drinking out of like a can of green beans.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Again, I guarantee we don't do that. We never. It's like a giant can of green beans I'm drinking out of. The biggest one we have is the same one, it's like the Asahi. Is that what it's called? The Sapporo. A big Japanese bean. Asahi.
Starting point is 00:12:34 We love them. I love getting a big Japanese can of green beans. Speaking of Japanese, I'm playing a game. Brian Simpson gave me a free PS5. That guy doesn't stop giving. I don't know what's going on with him He's just such a giver. I don't know if he's got some terrible Guest on this podcast. It's a second guest on my podcast. Nice. Who's the first guest you I get to be in the premier episode

I mean Japanese language English subtitles and
Starting point is 00:13:41 I played it and I mean, you know I thought maybe it's like oh maybe I'll learn a word or something not a chance and fuck I bet you got the accent I mean I can't it pretty good excellent pretty good some of the voices they do it's so mumbly though that's the problem you're not gonna be able to learn any I thought I thought maybe if you know cuz that's how you learn a language that's a good way to learn a language as you listen to the language And dude is really hard context like sometimes you be watching like an And I'll just make a noise and I'll give like alright then like look at like and I'll be like, okay Thank you. It's like oh, I guess that's in Japanese. That tastes alright then. Oh, it's just
Starting point is 00:14:20 And I guess there's probably multiple words for different, you know, just like in English, but so I can't I can't follow it I tried so hard to be like, oh, okay. That's war war is But it's like I can't that's what it is Go and it's like thing. Don't mind it. There's no you it's it. It's very like I can't I just like they I don't I can't Assert where one word starts in the other one You know, I can't it's all I mean Germans hard for that. It's fucking hard fins the French the worst cuz it's just Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. It doesn't sound real and they're in a sense. No, I don't know You know, I don't know much about Japanese. Oh, have you seen much Korean? Have you heard much Korean?
Starting point is 00:15:03 I mean, I've seen you know, just like so much squid game. I didn't see squid game. I think it was kind of demure. I watched the first episode. They are very emotional. But Japanese, they don't. Why you don't like the squid game? It seems too much murder. It's like I spent all day with my family and these kids struggling to make it happen in America And then what we come home and we watch a bunch of Koreans being nasty to each other dying. It's like capitalism is so bad Capitalism is all I got right now to hang my hat on No, we do have to break down capitalism
Starting point is 00:15:39 Uh, it's uh takes me to the first segment of the show Is uh, killing capitalism? No, I just they'd already guys doing that Who is that guy? The Luigi kill that guy? That's a good point. I such a pussy move to kill a CEO You know, do you think he was yeah, I feel like he was I feel like he had a team. I Don't think I say I say this they've stopped reporting on it Yeah like there are developments in it. And after it became very clear that the public was on his side, it did just disappear
Starting point is 00:16:10 from the news cycle. I never see a story about it anymore. They just their memory holding the CEO killing in a that's a good point. I it was kind of wild. I mean, there were so many memes, so many memes and yeah, there was no like emotional like, oh man, poor CEO, huh? Poor guy. Not in the main media. Sorry, the mainstream media tried to push that a little bit. Right.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Got no purchase. No. I remember Matt Walsh did a video about like, this is murder and all of his comment section was like, up yours, it's good to kill a CEO. I think it's bad to kill people but But here's a here's a you tell me here's what I'm saying So there's money to be just from you know, this is just from this is just knowledge from me playing grant of auto. Okay
Starting point is 00:16:58 The star rating will go down if you hide for long enough There's a there's a there's like an incentive, a money incentive to be made when you kill a CEO because the stock crashes or are you thinking shorted that you could short the company and kill people who work them? I'm not saying that I'm saying that maybe maybe that there was a team behind this Luigi guy Yeah, that goes. Hey You hate CEOs. We like making money Now let's come together on that
Starting point is 00:17:35 You maybe like a meta was just like whispering at him on the phone Just like say meta could radicalize us the Instagram you think meta AI could rack up Yeah, I think they. Oh, you're saying the ads ad marketing? No, I mean, even the feed, even the algorithm on the feed. I think about this a lot. All right. Because there's no good way to sit on this couch. Cannot wait until we get the cushions back on this couch.
Starting point is 00:17:56 The kids are on the cushions inside on a couch made from nothing. You do have the same shoes as my boy. All right. It's like, we talk about them like, algorithmically figuring out what you want in terms of news or like, your bubble, like everyone's in a bubble, an algorithmic bubble, I think they go a level further that we haven't cracked yet. Which is like, if they want you to be happy, they give you the content to make you happy. If
Starting point is 00:18:22 they want you to be unhappy, they give you unhappy content, they want you horny. If they want you to be unhappy, they give you unhappy content. They want you horny. If they want you celibate, this is, they could do it. You could, my mood is so dictated by- God, they want me horny so bad. It's tough. And I try to, I pump the brakes hard. I hold the video and go, not interested.
Starting point is 00:18:39 I do that, I do that right there. Right there, brother. I do it. Many times. I'm trying to stay as Christian as I possibly can. I went through and I told Instagram to stop showing me hot dancing women and it started showing me Muslim like extremist content. Oh, well, I figured out it's like oh he likes the ladies. Here's what's wild. He's feeling complicated. Here's what's wild to me. I will say non-interested, non-interested, non-interested. All these twerking bitches and stuff. Yeah and stuff. And then out of nowhere it goes, oh well you'll definitely like breastfeeding stuff. Oh yeah, you gotta pump through that and say no to that.
Starting point is 00:19:14 What in the hell is this? Well they don't tell you, they don't have a good response on why you're not interested. So it's like, this isn't hot enough. Right, that's a good point. Yeah the fake baby breastfeeding is a problem. Oh, it's very bad. Shut it down. Everybody wants that shut down except the woman doing it. No one wants that except for crates. Nobody wants that. Nobody is looking for that. No, and then the whole excuse of like, well, it's educational. It's not. No, it's not. We know how it works. Women. We've been doing this since we were in the caves. There's stuff to learn about breastfeeding.
Starting point is 00:19:47 None of it is where to put the child. 0% of things that women are confused about when they start breastfeeding. It's as on the nipple. And it's definitely not and it's definitely not showcased in the video. Oh, no. Well, there's a child says child's head. And the women that do it are creepy and the women that do it are creepy The women that do it are creepy. I mean imagine getting to the point where that's the market that you're alright This is this is weird. I get music for this podcast
Starting point is 00:20:16 This is just just in terms of like women doing creepy sex stuff where it doesn't belong to try and get the sexual following Okay, so belong to try and get a sexual following. Okay. So if you go on Wikipedia there's like free music people upload to Wikipedia. So I tend to take that because it's like copyright free and I don't get flagged. So like the US military band will just upload them playing songs if they record someone's national anthem. If you're on Wikipedia and you're like clicking national anthem that's the song you get. What I'm getting to is there's this woman who plays like classical music on the piano. It's Asian woman and she's not uploading audio files. She's like a full video of her playing in like very sexy negligee playing Bach quite
Starting point is 00:20:57 well and just going, well, this is creative comments, but it's soft core pornography. It just happens to be, it's such a weird, such a weird such a weird way to like I'll get him like this this is how I'll get them to see my body and to come along to the only fans is a guy looking for you know an etude and then he's got my bazoombas and she's really she's a talented pianist it's so niche I was it took me by surprise when I saw it I mean yeah they'll do anything they can. They showcase any talent. But that's like a 12-
Starting point is 00:21:30 I don't know, for me, that's almost like a 12-year-old, 11-year-old thought that I had where I'm like, whenever you first find out that naked women are online, then you get like, that kind of dies for you, and then you're like, well, surely there's to be a naked woman
Starting point is 00:21:46 Playing the piano is that where you went next? That's where it's like I got it next I didn't know there was a real market for maybe maybe a naked woman doing yoga. There's gotta be that I saw a guy. I saw a guy. Yeah, they're out there. I saw I was at the creek and I saw a guy on his iPad Just like sitting off the back of the room and I thought he was looking up it looked like he was looking up pornography there's like pornography on his iPad at a comedy club and I was like oh my goodness stop that and then the screen changed a little bit and it was I realized that he had been like watching illegal manga anime translations illegal like someone's scanning it from Japan so that he can get the manga been like watching illegal manga, anime translations. Illegal.
Starting point is 00:22:25 Like someone's scanning it from Japan so that he can get the manga faster. Like people do their own translations, right? And so he's reading a manga, like a Japanese cartoon that just cause it's on that kind of website, it's got porno advertisements on it. Cause it's like an illegal cheap website. It's like, oh, he's not trying to watch pornography.
Starting point is 00:22:42 He's trying to read a Japanese cartoon That might be more like what is more embarrassing in public? Checking out the new Naruto Softcore action I was That's a good point I was now we've got the door open in this garage my beautiful neighbors can't hear us I now comic books are embarrassing I become concerned about that now that the neighbors can hear and we're saying filthy things These are my new neighbors and they don't know who I am. Yeah, they're like guys degenerate guy with children He's a real. Yeah, he keeps yelling about porn in his ground. I well
Starting point is 00:23:18 In the privacy of my own home very I don't want to close the garage door because it's hot The it's weird. So we're in a better neighborhood. That was the main reason we moved. It's a nice neighborhood, man. I'll tell you. I mean, definitely not a scream about porn in your garage. That's more of an old neighborhood thing. So the old neighborhood was vibrant and exciting and people wanted to live there.
Starting point is 00:23:41 And this is like a normal laid-back suburban. So the cost, even though this is like a way bigger house the cost is not that different to the last house it's comparable and we're gonna be happy here I think but like we're with middle-class people now we're not with bohemian hipster we're not with like okay like there was like a strong Hispanic element there and a lot of homeless people and a lot of crack heads and a lot of Like hipsters. Yeah, that was that was a combination but the result was like if the kids were going crazy People would look at me like reassuringly in the supermarket and they'd be like, oh man. I know that's like or like
Starting point is 00:24:19 Here when the kids are behaving badly, it's like Cold I see. What are you? I felt that a HB Yeah, I don't I never felt that in the old neighborhood and it's a weird thing to become more People are really disliking you and they at the HB. I was doing my best I was a lot of nasty lot of nasty looks I was especially whenever the little one was running around and yeah, I like it not even by you they were like, what is he doing? This is a high contraception use This is people having the children they can afford and also they've got nannies and they come and help
Starting point is 00:24:50 This is real. I didn't know what American suburbia looked like really Here, this is it. I'm getting it. I pushed, you know, like I push my kids on the swing and we go to the playground We have like a I'm not I wouldn't say I was rough with him But I like we have a fun like I try and get involved you know like get across the the monkey bars you got to really encourage the monkey bars and I pushed my son yesterday on the swing here and he came off he let go while I was pushing him and he did a flip and he hit the ground and that's why he's got a funny stuff on his face scars scabs scabs little cuts little cuts
Starting point is 00:25:26 He's alright. He cried for a bit and then he was alright, but the other parents there Were fine like you what have you done? These Tesla driving Boogie ass parents are like is there blaming me is there anything worse? I was I was upset This is gonna be difficult for me to Navigate that one Tesla Fine you want to buy a Tesla? Yeah fine. Enjoy But if you want to get a cyber truck very cool. I
Starting point is 00:25:57 I I don't like it. I just don't understand what the move is. I Saw a guy. I don't understand what the move is. I saw a guy. I don't understand what the move is. I saw a guy in town who's like a solar panel company. It looks like a dumpster. Yeah, it's nice. It's different. It's creative. It's illegal in Australia.
Starting point is 00:26:13 It's illegal to have. They've recalled them from the streets because they say it's unsafe because it's a sharp edge when it crashes into people. So it's like, it's death. That's a great reason. I didn't even think of that. Nah, let people have the cars they want, you know when you like Defending cyber truck right now you grew up here. You're right. I just like that. It's different
Starting point is 00:26:34 I would never want to own one. I like that someone's going What if we do a different style like every car looks the same and he's going different what I really like and what I would Like to get now. I wouldn't get I just like it. I like the attitude You know those going different. What I really like and what I would like to get. Nah, I wouldn't get it. I just like it. I like the attitude. You know those, where the rims come out like a foot, big spiked rims that come out. It's a gang thing here.
Starting point is 00:26:52 Is that a gang thing? It's a gang thing here in town. It seems bizarre. Yeah. It makes it, must make it way harder to drive. The amount of space you have in that lane has come down. Significant. 20% you've just lost.
Starting point is 00:27:05 I know what you're talking about. And I don't think the people at home understand what we're talking about. There are spikes that come off the hubcap. It's like a foot. It's like you have metal. It's like a unit. 60 centimeters.
Starting point is 00:27:18 It's cone shaped too. It's like a cone rod sticking straight out perpendicular out of your wheel. There's no reason for it to be there. Why is it doing that? It's almost, you know actually in Grease, the movie, they have it again. It's very much like in Grease. With the race where he rams his tires. Did they flick out? Did they flick out or is it just built like that in Grease?
Starting point is 00:27:42 No, it's built like that. It's like a little sharp, I think, you know. It's like considered poor form. The bad guys do it in Greece. Yes. And that's a, yeah, it's like a gang thing here. I saw, it's like a, you know, there's a bunch of them, a group of them driving in a line. Yeah, with them all sticking out. Very tinted windows on this car.
Starting point is 00:28:04 Very tinted windows. Looks illegally tinted. That's right But that's also freedom and I respect that you like it. I draw the line at freedom Where is that something bad happening to me? And then other people's friends, but if something bad's happened to someone else that's just good old-fashioned freedom, baby It's hard. I know I don't have a good. good it's tough man it's like speeding in America is super normal I talk about this in the act and then you it's just so I'm gonna hunch ah my back yeah I'm sorry it's not good I thankfully have this blanket I'm sitting on oh yeah I'll get that blanket it's getting me through it all right share an
Starting point is 00:28:44 anecdote you know here's the thing with the cyber truck and this is what I've Sitting on oh, yeah, I'll get that blankets getting me through it. All right sharing anecdote You know, here's the thing with the cyber truck and and this is what I've I've said before and I I'll shamelessly say it again. I Don't I don't understand the move as a straight guy who buys a cyber truck because here's the thing. I've net only have I heard Every time a woman talks about a Cybertruck, they talk about how hideous it is. You don't hear a lot of women talking about how it gets them going. No, I have never heard a woman say it. But do women say that about other trucks? Like an F-150?
Starting point is 00:29:17 Of course. Are you kidding me? Not my woman. Oh, well I'm from Louisiana. Every time I... yeah. There's girls that's like, oh my god, he drives a sexy truck, right? That's not a sexy truck. It's a nerd mobile. It's an Asperger's It's an Asperger's dumpster fire and and and so every woman goes that's truck is so ugly Every time I've always only heard that so to me. It's like damn, bro. You really spent 90 grand to get less pussy That's crazy. That's a weird move Yeah, you could have bought anything else big nerd points. You could have bought the nerds
Starting point is 00:29:51 The nerds love you for it. That's what I'm saying. So it's a very it's a very it's like when guys work out too much And they get too jacked. Yeah, and now it's like you're only doing it for the bros. That's for the boys That's what it is. But there's a lot of I think almost every male Activity is for the boys. That's not true All right. Now, I'm not saying girls don't like it, but I think we're really doing it for the boys example Pokemon blue speed runs That's for the boys Pokemon blue. What's I mean? So I was playing Pokemon blue speed runs on the internet I got locked into a YouTube The time they're like how fast you can beat Pokemon blue. Yeah, there's a lot of ways There's not that over and over a lot of ways to not get pussy. That's for sure. I'm no one's doing that
Starting point is 00:30:34 To get girls get the fuck out of you. No, are you kidding? I think Matt Rife made a whole career off it What are you talking about? I think he's reaping the spoils, but I think my guess is he really wants to be a great comedian But but but but but but what you're okay, but here's the thing there's a there's there's a Side effect to stand up and it is getting women. Yeah, I know I agree. There is no side effect of Pokemon go to get there. There's just not. Maybe if you find another girl, it's in a Pokemon go. It's possible.
Starting point is 00:31:08 But I'm just saying, it's very small. That's a couple that I'm glad is out there walking with Pokemon go. But every other guy, like golf, you could definitely, there's tons of chicks that golf. You could do all kinds of things. CJ, let me tell you, those ladies are not interested in the fellas out there on the field.
Starting point is 00:31:22 That's true. On the course. That's a good point. But I understand. Those Korean lesbians have no interest. not interested in the fellas that's there on the field on the course. That's a good point. Korean lesbians have no interest. No I think we often we see other people do it we see men sing we see men succeed in their industry and it is nice that women are interested in that but I think really what women like is men who men like women are looking to see and the the Pokemon speed through is not something that men overall believe in but I think that the alpha male that the
Starting point is 00:31:50 ladies are all about I think women pursue the guy who the boys have identified as the leader. This I believe. This I do believe. That's why politicians despite being very ugly ladies they always get the beautiful ladies. Well, it's it's it's a weird It's a weird because it's very very so much about money too, but it's definitely money, but it's so cyber truck Sure. Yeah, you know you got money. So then women like oh wow You must have money cuz he's got a cyber truck, right? But what I'm saying is that it is a very very ugly vehicle that you could have gotten What I'm saying is that it is a very, very ugly vehicle. You could have gotten anything else.
Starting point is 00:32:26 And then on sight, women would have been like, damn, he's got money and a sexy ass car. That's crazy. You got an ugly one. The Toyota Sienna, that attracts a very depraved kind of woman, because it screams. That is, OK, you know there are some cars that people will still mess with you if you're driving.'ll disrespect you. I felt in certain cars
Starting point is 00:32:48 I felt disrespected if you're in like a little Volkswagen or something people might muscle you around that car People give me a wide berth in a minivan Because you don't know you you suspect that whoever's driving that minivan, they've had a bad day. Okay, and then we didn't even... They're ready to go. That's a fighting car. The minivan, the people mover, the Sienna, the Turaga. They're like, this guy doesn't know how to pull out. That's hard.
Starting point is 00:33:18 Yeah, he's not going to pull out of a fight. He's not going to pull out of a fight. Or it's a lady. It's a mother with children in there we're gonna be careful for them either way no one you want to mess with is driving that vehicle you want to treat that vehicle with respect that's a good point I'm a big believer I will say the funny thing too about the Cybertruck it's tied to politics now so then it's such yeah it's a weird right wing car an ugly vehicle it's like goddamn bro it's a weird right wing car an ugly vehicle. It's like goddamn, bro
Starting point is 00:33:45 You really you just made such a crazy. I know the cars really about politics is the Rolls Royce Yeah, that really identifies what side of the revolution you're on There's no one this is my second year not doing the festivals in Australia, and I'm still I'm feeling a little sad about it The the Perth fringe or they call it Fringe World, it's in Perth, the Adelaide Fringe Festival, the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Brisbane one, and the Sydney one. How significant does your act change whenever you,
Starting point is 00:34:14 like your current act now, let's say your current hour, let's not even say what you got now. All right. I'm saying your previous taping, how much different does that set get in Australia? Some of the context is different. Um, and some things don't like joking about how fast people drive in America, in Australia, get, it's just, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:34:39 They listen to it and they enjoy it, but it doesn't, it's not going to hit. It's funny. Things that are funny to Americans about themselves are not the same things that are funny to Australians about Americans and vice versa. So like, they're, it's the same with the South and North here. Yeah. It's crazy. Like a Northern are doing jokes about the South. It's gonna be very different to a Southern are doing jokes about the South. Like a Northern of my go-even cousin loving, whatever. And in the South they'd be like, one day the b- Excuse me, I joke, I jest, I kid. That's a Northern a bit. But in the
Starting point is 00:35:14 South they'd be like, I don't know, it'd be something about the hogs playing football or like when mama fix a meal. Well I did that whenever I went to New York I was like oh I have to like joke about the South and a weird jokingly like they're down there right? Yeah. Whereas like here I have to make it like likeable in a sense that I'm not making fun of them here. Yeah. I'm just talking about what we do and how it's ironic. It's very, it's inside comedy versus outside comedy. So weird.
Starting point is 00:35:46 But this is the weird thing about going, being in the new place and joking about the place that they're in. This is what I had to do in America is like do jokes about America to Americans. The things I notice have to be like the Venn diagram. It has to be things I would really notice and also things that they find funny about themselves, which is hard because like they're not alienated the way I am. So I had a bit that would never fly that works great in Australia about how Americans can like politely ask strangers for things.
Starting point is 00:36:19 Like can you, I'm sorry, can you please turn that off? Or like could you take him over there? You know, like whatever like Americans just don't have a problem going Would you please fetch that for me? Like They have a request and they say it to people just that in Australia describing that gets a big Laugh because it's like we didn't can't do it. We are so embarrassed to ask a stranger to modify their behavior It's you know, my friend came back from America. He was here for three weeks can't do it. We are so embarrassed to ask a stranger to modify their behavior. It's, you know, my friend came back from America. He was here for three weeks and he got back and he said, the first thing he recognized was that he was at the airport and someone came up
Starting point is 00:36:55 to him and said, can you please do me a massive favor, mate? Could you move that bag slightly to the left? Like it's so hard to ask a stranger to do something for you. And here it's just like, excuse me, sir, can you move that bag over there? All right. It's like everybody's flowing. Everybody knows what they want
Starting point is 00:37:10 and they're happy to say if they're gonna do it. There's very few limitations. So like that's in Australia, that observation about Americans gets a big pop. And that is something that I noticed. And in America, it gets nothing. Cause everyone's just like, well, why wouldn't you do that? Damn, I didn't even think about that I can't
Starting point is 00:37:26 even flip it and go like in Australia you never ask people things because they've not been to Australia so just go why would they do that that seems that seems silly right it's so hard you have to find things like they're uncomfortable about and you're making me question things about myself because now I'm like I don't think I I don't think I't think I, I don't think I ask people to like, uh, my girlfriend's calling me. I don't think I ask people to move like, or change their behavior or modify anything unless it really bothers me. And then I think if I get really frustrated, it's really pissing me off.
Starting point is 00:37:59 I will, I do get kind of confrontational and I'll like tell them. Yeah, we get, but even then when you're confrontation, are you angry or I do get kind of confrontational and I'll like tell them yeah We get but even then when you're confrontational, are you angry or you keeping a lid on it? I'm trying to keep a lid on it, but it's tough. You got slipping. That's a difference Aussies when we when people open up when people finally say how they're feeling. It's very ugly Yeah Get off the getter off the bus. Yeah, there's one. They had a bunch of Australians come into the club recently.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Yeah, mothership. And they were very annoyed by the heckling rules. They wanted to chat because they were like in Australia. It's not this crazy. Like they're returning their buddies and they're like, yeah, like back home. Like, I guess it isn't like, you know, they don't care you can talk or whatever. Absolutely Yeah, yeah. No, I find this I find this weird when Yeah, when this when when I'm doing comedy the ship and the security will come like I'll be chatting to a lady and the security like we're just doing some it's crowd work that starts as heckling like
Starting point is 00:39:07 That's the thing you have to do in Australia when someone's heckling you know You can just shut them down But you can also like talk to them and work through it and then they've like had their say and then you move on But it's happened a couple times where someone will like heckle or like say just like not even really heckle like you suck or whatever They'll just like whoa like they'll contribute and I respond to that and I work with it and I'll see security come over and be to them like you gotta stop that now and then I feel bad about it
Starting point is 00:39:30 because I sort of encouraged the person to do it but you're not meant to do that at that room the British are brutal for it they love they man the Scots they love every set every set they'll be heckling at the start and then you'll face one and if you do a good job dealing with the heckler They're like, oh, he's funny. He knows how to do con. That's alright. We'll listen now, but like that's a Test that you will frequently get in the United Kingdom. And what do they want? Do they want wittiness? What they want? Who what do the British want? They want their they want with their empire back. They want wit No, I'm saying for a stand up they want wit.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Think about this a lot. That's so crazy that they want that's so funny that they go like, oh is he funny? Can he handle like in person whatever? Can he hand me gun? Oh, fat! Yeah, exactly. Some people can't. I don't know. I was in a hate on British comedy for a second there, but then I regretted it. No, I was thinking about something. They weren't wet in that encounter, but overall... I'm not a big Jimmy Carr fan. All right. Sorry. I said it. Jimmy Carr, we'd love to have you on the podcast to rebut this scandalous feeling.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Sorry, I'm not a fan. Well, he's doing jokes. He's doing jokey jokes. He's doing like... That's not what you're about. It's fascinating fascinating because he'd be the closest to an American comedian. No, well, like his success. I find it fascinating. I find everybody, everybody who's become a success, I find interesting because it's so hard. It's so hard. And no one wants you to be a success. There are no stand up comedy industry plans. It's a, well, everyone managed to figure out something that they could do who last and it's successful I would say you get found out by the audience real quickly. Yeah, so it's like, okay. Jimmy Carr was doing I Mean, how did he break through in America? How do Americans know about him?
Starting point is 00:41:20 Game shows. He did like some kind of he did he like hosted something I think or he was on TV somehow but no I mean like yeah he like hosted like award shows and things. That's the thing it's like he got famous enough in Britain or he can get on TV in the US and be fine but yeah. He gets you. I love this. There's a backstory. Oh, do you and Carr have some beef? There's beef. You want me to tell you? Yeah, but maybe do it off, Mike. We'll cut this out. Alright, tell me. Do you want this out?
Starting point is 00:41:58 Do you publicly want to air your Jimmy Carr beef? That's so above your station to be beefing with Jimmy Carr. I love that. You're talking about getting to start going on the road and you've got with the top British comedian in the world, a feud going. I mean, watch his some of his Joe. I mean, just that there's no, wait, have you met? Uh, I took his comedy class. I hear we got, yeah, it was a scam.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Oh my God. It's so first of all, his wife a scam. Oh, my God. It's so first of all, his wife runs it. OK. And she doesn't even do stand up. And she's like she was teaching a bunch of comedians like it was a free class. I was like, sure. But it was. But there. But his wife was teaching it. And she's like, this is how you do stand up. Presses play. And it's Jimmy Carr doing stand up. And you're like, this is how you do stand up. Presses play and it's Jimmy Carr doing stand up.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Insane choice. And then she's like, this is how you write jokes. She was like, pretty much like X, Y, Z, how you do, how you write a joke. And it's just like how Jimmy Carr came about this joke. And you're like, okay, well, clearly that's not the only way to write jokes. And then she, like in the class,
Starting point is 00:43:08 like in the curriculum of his class, there's no writing on stage that doesn't exist in standup. But it's dumb. Bunk. Yeah, it's the only way to do it. And then so she says that that's not true. You have to write off stage.
Starting point is 00:43:23 You have to write in the notebook, write every day write lines in between your jokes and So I was just like yeah Really aggravated and then like and then we go this is stand-up and then they would play his joke and it's like some I mean Honestly, just a bad joke corny corny corny corny corny When this is happening, where are you? He's corny. But where were you? Oh, oh, I wanna watch a butler on stage tell one-liners,
Starting point is 00:43:53 get the fuck outta here. This is the big difference between the American and the British mentality. They do. I like it. They wanna see the butler be a little bit silly. Yeah, and that's a and hey, that's why they lost That's why they lost and we won
Starting point is 00:44:13 It genuine. All right dig in because I Was thinking about this a lot that the American sense of humor is actually based around it being a martial. Oh my god Are you kidding me? Watch great great British bacon show where they have these two f***ing clowns on there. They're all like, they're making cakes and it's like, these guys aren't funny. Nobody on that show is funny. I've never seen anyone hate the British. No one on that show is funny.
Starting point is 00:44:35 You find this personally offensive. They're like, oh, oh, this is a comedian, two comedians. They keep like cycling through comedians. Like none of them are funny. None of them are funny. That's crazy. Yeah, y'all have six, seven, nine different comedians on there like none of them are funny none of them are funny that's crazy yeah yeah I have six seven nine different comedians on there and none of them are funny the hell that means I don't know now we'll cut out
Starting point is 00:44:52 some of that it's gonna get us in trouble but that's definitely staying in oh when did you know you hated British comedy what why did you start watching the Great British Bag Off does your girlfriend make like does she love the Great British Bag Off how did you make like does she love the Great British Bag Off? How did you even come across that show? So many women love that show, but yes My girls watched it I've seen it on TV multiple times just just you know in passing or whatever It's I mean, it's bad. It's like you've been possessed. I hate it. All right. There's now There's definitely some British comedians. I think are fun
Starting point is 00:45:26 I'm not saying all of them. Give me one maybe one that you don't hate one that I don't hate one I think Bill Hicks did stand up Sickening you don't like Stuart Lee It's okay not to like Stuart Lee Someone out there should not like Stuart Lee? It's okay not to like Stuart Lee. Someone out there should not like Stuart Lee. I don't know if I've, I actually don't know who Stuart Lee is, now I think about it. Okay, so Stuart Lee has made his whole career.
Starting point is 00:45:53 If I've seen him. Making fun of those people. You don't like that man who skips at the Apollo in the UK? The Michael McIntyre? Or James A. Castor? Slouchy Pouty James. I actually like James. You don't mind him?
Starting point is 00:46:03 I don't mind James A. Castor. Here's what I like about him. Alright. You might not like him. No, I have no strong feelings about James A. Castor. Output. A lot. A lot of output. Yeah, he's got to work it. I respect that. Yeah. They do, I mean they do... All the British people seem to do an hour a year. Didn't I? Every year. Output. Yeah. And I think Jimmy Carr is a good output fine But whenever it's a little little bite snips of corny at a time. That's when I don't like it Well, I think it's because you guys have an empire and you're being serious and there's actually like an intellectual current through American comedy
Starting point is 00:46:41 I don't want like overstated and be like these are philosopher kings But there's like if you're talking about something that's real to you and that you're really dealing with, Americans sort of treat that like it's valuable. Like it's a tool to help you through life. And or like as a result, your biggest, the biggest comedians are often the weirdest sort of twisted strange people doing comedy. Like Louis was doing weird stuff. Bill Burr is doing weird stuff. Shane now is doing quite weird, like whereas in Britain, they have like two classes of comedy. They have like the old scene, which is
Starting point is 00:47:19 and boring overall, as I want to say. And then like a very hacky, clever panel show, top level, corporate money thing. And here that distinction does not exist. The most interesting people are usually the most successful. And the smartest people are usually the most successful. And that's not the case in Britain. Cause I don't think white people, when they sit down after a long day at the coal factory museum, I don't know what they do for jobs there
Starting point is 00:47:45 in the UK at the moment. But like, there's no hope of improving your life or taking over the world or running the world. It's like, we've got to pass the time while this falls apart. I think- That's what they're doing. A lot of standup for Americans is like,
Starting point is 00:48:03 at least for me, I like to watch a cathartic experience. Sure. Or I go, I feel this, this guy's making me laugh because I've felt this or I have thought this. It's real. And this works me up right now because it's like I connect with this and it makes me, it moves me. It makes me like very-
Starting point is 00:48:23 You identify with the person doing it. It makes me laugh. And so when British people are doing a silly walk whenever Jimmy Carr's up there and does a joke about biscuits I want to lose it and it's yet again I'm not saying that I'm comedy god no no no a big difference here is so like Seinfeld so who I really like Seinfeld. Yeah. Because Seinfeld will do a little bit about biscuits and something that's not about biscuits. No but the through line, the thing under it with Seinfeld is always I might kill myself,
Starting point is 00:48:56 I might kill somebody. Like you feel a weird anger and despair. Yes, annoyance. As he's talking about Chris, you know chip packets. Yeah, the way they open or whatever He's really talking about the existential condition and you don't get that with observational comedy and that's at a cathartic thing or you're You're watching you're going hang. No, I know how that feel that fucking thing You're right. That's king thing pisses me off and now that's making me laugh because I agree with his annoyance. But Jimmy Carr, it's an emotionalist. He might as well be holding a dinner napkin all around his wrist while he does it.
Starting point is 00:49:34 I just bothers me, bro. I watched so much of his videos because of that class. It was, I just couldn't believe that they were using some of the examples as like from his jokes. Oh man, everybody, I did a creative writing class in university during the poetry class when the poet was like, here are my poems. This is good poetry. I wanted to reach out and strangle them in the middle of the room. It was really something. It's evil. And also, people probably should go to comedy classes. This is my new thing. This is a new band that I'm on.
Starting point is 00:50:12 Oh, wait, hang on. This is another reason why I don't like Jimmy Carr. Hit me. Hit me. All right. That's the title of the episode, by the way, is another reason why I don't like Jimmy Carr. Because his whole thing is like, I classy he's a class like he's like classy yeah he's so his perspective is I'm a classy guy and you're trash yes people from Liverpool are trash this is trash yeah trash you're a drunk he's a drunk it's like why is this funny you're just better than everyone else oh is that the big laugh classic Classic egalitarian American CJ.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Is that the funny part? Is that you're better than everyone? Yeah. See, punching down is good because you get more force. If you punch up, that's only the weight of the arm. If you punch down, you can get the full weight of the torso moving through this blood. That's fine, punch down. But the behind it, like Kinnison punched down great.
Starting point is 00:51:08 He was talking about starving kids in Africa. But he's down there in the muck. But he's down in the muck. He's not up there going I'm part of the empire trash people. That sucks dude. You're not funny. Sorry. It is, oh man, Why do the British love that?
Starting point is 00:51:26 Cause they do. I don't know. Cause they think they're on top still. Is this funny? So out? No, they don't. I don't think they know it's over. Come on, dude. So the biggest-
Starting point is 00:51:36 They love the queen, bro. The biggest Australian ex-boy. You can't even joke about the queen, why? She's a beautiful, sweet woman. She's great. No, it's because they respect the fact that they were on top Don't you joke about the Queen? Don't you come on here and joke about the Queen the biggest Australian comedian export
Starting point is 00:51:53 globally Well to the UK I would say was Barry Humphries who was it would put her dress on This is the 70s where it wasn't you know, it wasn't political It was still just funny for a man to wear a dress. I think we can all agree that that's pretty funny when a fellow puts a dress on and he'd be like a housewife. So the character is Dame Edna and it starts off being a housewife and it's like being a judgmental housewife, whatever. And then it like got to the, you know, there was this whole thing about like Dame Edna gets where Edna Everidge gets knighted and becomes Dame Edna and starts calling herself
Starting point is 00:52:24 a gigast star and like really Sledging the audience doing shows with people on and like talking them down and being like oh, that's good of you for trying You know, it's all like nasty down. I'm better than you stuff But the underlying thing is it's an old fat man in a dress Pretending to be a woman who everybody hates is being nice to the people. Right. Right. So there's a level of irony there. This is like when Jim and the Glick is saying how great Jim and the Glick is. It's like was Martin Short and an enormous fat suit. We're laughing at a fat guy. I'll grant you. I Jimmy Carr. I can see how that would great because he really he's not doing
Starting point is 00:52:59 an impression of a classy guy punching down. I think he is a rich dude. Yeah. From money. That's what I'm saying. It's just like what is funny about this? And there's no self-deprecating factor in any of us. It's just very like I'm rich and I'm classy and people from you know and these people are trash. I've never seen something like that. These people are trash. Trash. Garbage. Funny man trash garbage funny man no I'm slapping my knee well Jimmy Carr we'd love to have you on for a right of reply and to defend you can come into the garage we'll have some cushions on the couch by
Starting point is 00:53:37 that point and look again again I'm sure the guy can write corny jokes circles around me writing corny jokes I'm sure I'm sure he could write circles around me but I don't I it's like it's still I don't risk I watched so many of his jokes I watched all of them with a straight face just like what it what was that I was like looking like how long with the class go and she like press pause and she goes now that's a perfect joke okay. You're like, OK, I'm sitting here with my arms around. This has made you more upset than anything I've ever seen. We're upset by this. No, you're upset by this.
Starting point is 00:54:12 I've never seen you get so worked up. I do get worked up. This is great. I told you I'm very confrontational. I've never seen you confront someone the way that you seem to want to get into a fisticuffs with Jimmy Carr. I'm a very friendly guy. Wait, now, how far in the comic? I want to find out about this comedy class.
Starting point is 00:54:27 I got to know. How long did you go for? Here's the thing. All right, tell me. I'm just saying whenever I'm trying to make a point, I know that there's a bunch of people on the other side going, OK. So in my head, I'm going, well, let me prove you why.
Starting point is 00:54:38 Why I'm saying this. Yeah. So anyway, so I took the class for like, I mean, I went to class like three times because I, by the second time I'm like, I'll do it. I'm going to go one more. Yeah. Cause I've had enough of it. And then I went the last time and that's whenever she said that there's no riding on stage and I'm like, I'm out. Yeah. Can't do that. This is stupid. And she showed not by the way, multi-day course though. Oh yeah. I was like weeks weeks two weeks. It's nice. They did it at mothership. They they they was just recently
Starting point is 00:55:07 Yeah, he was on Rogan and was like, oh I'm gonna do my comedy class at the mothership and take y'all the door guards comedy And then we watched it. You're like, this is trash, bud Was he there No turn up at the car. No, he did but sent his lady baited it Oh his little carrot was that he was on be at the end at the class? No. He did. He sent his lady girl. He baited it. Oh, his little carrot was that he was on B at the end of the class and then he never came. And it was just his wife teaching the course. Who never does stand up in her life.
Starting point is 00:55:34 I mean, that's the biggest scam artist ever. We got to, we can definitely get Jimmy Caron on the podcast. Do it, man. All right. I'm sure he'll have 50 corny ass jokes for you too. He'll probably tell you to wear a suit. You're trash. Trash, you think you can speak to me?
Starting point is 00:55:52 It would be so awesome for Jimmy Carr to be sitting on this couch right now. He wouldn't dare. No, he wouldn't. He'd bring his own seat. Oh my God. That's exciting. We haven't had any beef on this podcast yet.
Starting point is 00:56:04 If you had picked someone more remote, so much beef, they never would have, we never would have heard about. Jimmy Carr is genuinely, if I was to say, pick the top person who might actually respond to this podcast. Like still in the room. Like if you went off about Jay-Z, we're never gonna hear back about Jay-Z. You can say whatever you like about Jay-Z. He's never coming on the show. You got Obama. As long as I'm not just picking rich black guys I pick a white guy I mean like the King of England right he's never gonna respond Jimmy Carr 50 50 yeah he's in the neighborhood he could I hope he does we got to do
Starting point is 00:56:39 another plug now at the end yeah now that now that you've come here on one of those presumably people are watching this now, not on the actual podcast, but the vast numbers will be those like Comedy World guys who cut up the clips and are like, CJ Landry takes aim at Jimmy Carr. I would tell them, it's a shame I can't get my time back from those classes. It's a shame. This is great. I could have had lunch with Brian Simpson and would have learned six times more. You could have gone for a walk. You could have sat with your dick in your hand in a hotel room. I mean I could have just done anything else and would have had a more, you know, learning experience as far as doing stand-up.
Starting point is 00:57:26 I mean, it was just, yeah, what was crazy was that she also showed us videos of like Louie on stage doing a bit, and then she literally said right after that, oh, there's, by the way, there's no such thing as writing on stage. That's like against this class. So he does, right? Yeah, like that's all that you don't even know what Louie does then. All of us in the class told her that we're like,
Starting point is 00:57:50 that's what there was a route. There was a route in the, Oh, everyone in the class knew what it was. That's the thing. That's why it's like, what I'm saying is not even really that crazy. Everybody in the class agreed was like, this lady's dumb. Jimmy Carr's jokes are bad and
Starting point is 00:58:07 Why are we watching Louie and you telling us that we can't write on state? He had one about a junction that I really like it's the only Jimmy Carjack. I remember. Okay. What is it? He goes I was talking my girlfriend It was probably running this class now in the Is an old joke. I was talking to my girlfriend and she said she said we're at crossroads down one path lies a difficulty but commitment and ultimately heavy relationship and the other path we let each other go and have a shallower but easier life and I said I'm sorry that's not a crossroads that's a junction you
Starting point is 00:58:46 see what I mean now like if you're listening to that because he's classy okay that's a man who thought about it and wrote wordplay it's good stuff that's get those shirts on JDF McCann.com I think this episode's run long what a powerful second act for the podcast. None of that's getting cut JDF McCann dot com Out now get the shirt CJ Landry killin time with CJ Landry. Is that what it's called? That's it. And then don't tell is coming out keeping out for that Jimmy Carr your shits on site bitch And what now you do you do activities with people on your podcast? That's right. I do I do I do You do you do activities with people on your podcast. That's right. I do. I do.
Starting point is 00:59:24 I do bowling. I do chess. What activity will you be doing with Jimmy Carr? You got to have Jimmy Carr on. Oh, it will do a writing jokes class. All right. Sit there and teach him how to write. Now, no, I would. You know what, dude? I would love to do a debate about about
Starting point is 00:59:45 writing is his class. Yeah. Talk about Talk about okay you can't write on stage. Let's talk about that. Where's the proof that you can't write on stage? Yeah. Let's see. Bill Burr. Hmm. Seems like that guy's successful. Writing on just writes on. I don't. I can't imagine George Carlin was burning the midnight oil, getting all the words in the right order. Oh, he definitely was. Wait, no, George Carlin.
Starting point is 01:00:10 Who do I? George Carlin was a nerd. He definitely was. No, George Carlin. I didn't mean to say George Carlin. Richard Pryor? I meant to say Richard Pryor. You think Richard Pryor was just writing
Starting point is 01:00:16 the N-word five times on a notebook? Are you out of your mind? I did mean to say Richard Pryor. I mean, it just makes no sense. The whole thing was a dumb class I mean, yes, well, this is I mean, there's they were taking it on the road. They were gonna go they were gonna go multi They're gonna go to every country in the UK apparently. Yeah and do this class. You gotta make that money. Oh is there a
Starting point is 01:00:41 Redis what's the word? Do people hate comedy classes in this... in America? People... well, you know, depending on... yeah, whenever... if you're asking a brand new open mic'er they love it. Yeah. And that's... But like all the comedians go the only way to do it is to do it. Don't do a class. Of course. Yeah. That's the only way to do it. I'm gonna run one in Australia I decided. I'm not gonna charge for it. But I was thinking about last night. I think it's smart. I don't want to talk about the comedy at all. I heard what I heard was Ari Shafir Ran one that was great at the Comics Lounge and all he's doing is talking about the business He's like this is what a manager does. This is what an agent does. This is how you get a manager This is when you don't need a manager. This is what you can ask an agent to do
Starting point is 01:01:20 This is a good deal and a bad deal This is the rooms that you should be talking to. And it's just like all the stuff that actually helped. Nothing to do with the act and developing the act. But it's like, how to move in the industry. That would be nice to hear. That's an investment to get someone to tell you that. But writing jokes, I mean, if you could teach it, those classes would be worth something.
Starting point is 01:01:44 Oh yeah. No one can do it I don't cars got it figured out Junction I did notice a lot of the door guys starting to wear three-piece suits Wondered what that was about Someone must like was it the whole did the whole class turn People stop going was dropping like flies from the first day to the like third class. It was half Everyone was like this is bullshit Who was interested to the I've got it
Starting point is 01:02:13 I don't throw anyone else on the bus, but I'm gonna find out more about this camera and ho everybody Thank y'all for listening and check out the don't tell huh, please share with your friends. I figured it all out on stage it's all shit it's all just that's right I wrote the notebook over and over and over and over again just like Jimmy Carr said I love that Richard Pryor just going like hold on cops don't shoot cars now what could rhyme with that? And I do it good, Richard Pryor.
