We're gonna do a podcast.
It's happening now.
It's happening now.
And this couch has to go around the block
and into the new house.
This one, the one the the cushionless couch
Yeah, this is I've managed said this is okay
CJ Landry everybody here on the James on force we can
Katamaran plant CJ has a new podcast that is out. I'll just release this right. It's called killing time
Killing time and you know, we did a bowling one me and James
I don't know how how I keep the idea alive
I want to do different activities. We're recording this before it's launched
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.
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
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
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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?
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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
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...
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
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.
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.
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
You're in the premier man bank bank out now Bolin killing time with CJ Landry
It's just no good way to sit on this never stop promoting never stop promoting well, but I I I
Got this game on it for free he bought it and it's just it just came with the PS5
it's called a ghost of Shoshumi and
You can choose whether or not you play the game
Originally how was made which is in Japanese with I like subtitles English subtitles the dub
No, no, no dub just English. I mean Japanese
language English subtitles and
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
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?
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
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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-
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
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?
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.
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
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?
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
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
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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.
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
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,
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.
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
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.
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.
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
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
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
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.
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.
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
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
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.
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.
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?
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?
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.
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.
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,
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.
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,
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
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.
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
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
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.
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?
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
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
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
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,
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-
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,
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
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-
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
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
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
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
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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?
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.
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
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.
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,
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
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
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.
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
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.
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
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
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
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.
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
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.
