Hello, here I am. Welcome to the show. It's the Nikki Glaser Podcast. We are in a special studio
in Los Angeles, California, which is where I am because I did the roast of Tom Brady last night
And I am joined by, obviously, Brian Frangie
What's up, Brian?
Yo, what's up?
Noah gave birth already
Oh, she did?
Yes, but I'm not gonna say any details
Why not?
Did I not send you any pictures or anything?
I had no pictures
Oh, well, Noah's given birth
She's been a mom for a week. Wow.
Congratulations, Noah.
I guess I could say that. Noah, is that okay? I guess
you are hearing this and you can't
stop it if it's not okay because it's already out.
Why can't you give details?
Because I feel like that's up to the mom
to give, like name and
age, sex, location.
What's the date of birth?
I really don't know.
I think it was a week
and a day ago or something.
And joined with us also is my
boyfriend, by popular demand, back on the
show. People have been wondering, when are you coming back?
I'm back. The answer is now. Chris Convey,
everyone.
You won the poll.
How are you
guys? What's going on? What's's going on what's going on with us
what a dumb question i mean last night can you imagine if i was just like guys um well i guess
some people do do that as the host and say i'm i'm the talk of the town you're the talk so let's
start with me you're the bell the ball toast of america the toast of
america and last night's single-handedly saved comedy is pretty much the it's seriously that's
pretty much the general consensus of the internet is that last night saved comedy because we've you
know we've had a lot of uh lackluster comedy over the last five years this wasn't lacking fun i
think and last night was so fun the roast of tom brady joyful
yeah how are you feeling yeah i'm tired i'm not gonna lie because you did the roast nikki did the
roast last night at five right and then it was a three-hour show ended at eight yes and then nikki
had to be back up for hair and makeup at 3 30 i woke up and i took a shower for 10 minutes and
then i was get having people put it on my face at 3.40.
So she was on the biggest television show of the year.
Probably in the last decade, really.
And then she went on Howard Stern, the best radio.
I was on the season finale of MASH.
And then the War of the Worlds broadcast.
Those are essentially what those two things were.
Within five hours of each other.
And it did end at
8 o'clock, but then we went to
an after party. And so we really got
out at about 10.30,
home by 11,
in bed
by midnight,
asleep by 1.30, awake by 3 by 3 30 so two hours of sleep but you know
i'm going on adrenaline i'm not like actively tired i feel like do you ever like stay up all
night like or you get one hour sleep or something and the sun's so much brighter yeah than it would
be if it was just normal day your pupils are pupils are dilated. Is this a metaphor? Yeah, well, that might be, actually.
The sun is brighter and there's less clouds
in the sky. More people want selfies
with me. I have 1.1 million
followers now. That's right. See, I told you. I got that
.1, bitches. I've been waiting for
that one. Brian thought last
night that Nikki was going to get
1 million extra followers. No, that's
not what I meant. That's what you said.
I said just remember these two
letters and numbers. 2M.
And I didn't
mean that you're going to get 1 million followers
within 20 minutes of the roast
ending, but I do think that this is
going to start... Let's monitor throughout the show.
It's going to start your propulsion towards
2M. Why would you not have 2M?
Yeah, well, that's a good question.
Others on the roast had to have more than 2M? Yeah, well, that's a good question. Others on the roast
had to have more than 2M. Yeah, well
it is a steady at one point. I mean, I've been
at, this is not something I pay attention to
but when you are at a million followers
it's like a big deal when you make that leap from
998 to 999 and then you
kind of look at it and you're like, I really don't
pay attention to likes and numbers and
stuff like that. I don't
and I know I brag about that stuff all the time but I am bragging about it because it's very hard not to pay attention to likes and numbers and look stuff like that. I don't. And I know I brag about that stuff all the time,
but I am bragging about it because it's very hard not to pay attention to
that stuff.
So I am bragging.
Imagine if it goes down to nine,
nine,
nine,
it's like a disaster.
It did.
Like when you go over to one,
it like goes back and forth a little bit because you're dropping,
you're losing,
especially because I like bragged about,
not bragged about it,
but I was just like 1 million or whatever,
or other people noticed.
Yeah.
And so then people deliberately
unfollow to get you down below to fuck with you they pull a benedict yeah what was that everyone
unfollowed benedict oh yeah yeah yeah wait why because he promoted who cares about any of this
no no no this is interesting no no no so when you're at a million followers you see it and then so i thought okay once you
it's like the point one's down the barrel it's coming yeah and it's i was i've been at a million
for over a year yeah over a year that's a weird place to just it's not like i've been craving
that point one but it for some reason it's you're like in the past couple weeks i've been like
what's this when's this point one you were show up? You were like the Nelson Mandela of Instagram, just waiting.
Yeah.
In jail.
In the prison of one million.
Yeah, the Mandela effect.
Did he die or not?
Oh, that's what the M stands for, actually.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
One Mandela.
You're going to be two Mandela within the end of the year.
Oh, my God.
The end of the year.
Two Mandela.
You're going to add a Winnie Mandela.
Oh, my God.
Yeah, that's right.
To double my followers, that would be amazing.
Yes.
But yeah, so it went
point up point one last night from the roast which so many people watched yes i mean they don't
release their numbers but i've never done anything they're gonna release them they're gonna be so
proud of this they're gonna release them i guarantee it they said they said it was a bigger
audience than even the chris rock thing and the chris rock thing is what propelled them to be
like we're in on live this live thing is important yeah so that was the inspiration for this it was the biggest show i mean
i think it's one of the biggest shows of the decade yeah everyone i know watched it yeah i i
looked at my phone after like after i got done with the roast and i probably waited a half hour
before i like looked at my phone because the camera's on you i didn't want it to cut to me
and then have it look at me looking at my phone but at that point it was like they were doing something in the audience and i was like let me
just look at it to see and my my text messages were 81 which i and i'm not someone who just like
piles them up it's like that's 81 freshies yeah freshies and this is this is the tip of the
iceberg because apparently only 10 of the audience watches live now this show is probably more than
that right which means there's a ton more people that are about to watch like the total number only 10 of that number watch live and then
the 90 watch later wow and the internet's going crazy right now you are the consensus number one
pick of the of the draft of the roast everyone's saying you were the best you're the goat and uh
you're you went uh trending number one worldwide on Twitter.
You're going viral on TikTok.
Your entire set is on TikTok right now going viral.
Can I ask?
I'm not trying to be like...
Why?
Why is that happening?
I mean, I understand I had amazing jokes.
Your set was so...
Yeah.
Jesus Christ.
I'm like Gronk right now.
Yeah, me,
high at table,
Nikki, good.
What do you think was the factor
that made it...
Because I've never done anything
where it's like this emphatically,
like, oh my God.
I listened to clips again today
on Stern when I did it
and I was like,
oh, I see a lot of flaws here.
Of course, I do.
Well, you have this thing where you see flaws first. today on stern when i did it and i was like oh i see a lot of flaws here of course i well you you
got you you have a like this thing where you see flaws first you're a flaws first kind of gal yes
but can brian and i set the table just a little bit yeah so you know jeff went up and um it was
kevin then jeff and they were both great jeff got a standing ovation just for just for getting
announced right so people are like oh yeah jeff's great and then you know he finished and he was amazing obviously and then drew bledsoe went
up and he was amazing and then nikki went up didn't get a standing ovation when you walked up
but you were the only person that got a full room standing ovation when you were finished
throughout the whole show and i was waiting the whole time i was like is that is anybody else
gonna get this nobody else got it but you it was it was extraordinary it was electric in the building oh my god it was incredible watching it was incredible i felt like
i was on coke i wanted to go fight someone after i was i was running i was like brian and i were
sitting next to each other and we were i was like hitting his leg and it felt like tearing up what
it felt like two things one it felt like i was on like a sports team and i was like on the
sidelines watching someone like hit the game winning three and we just won it felt like i was on like a sports team and i was like on the sidelines watching
someone like hit the game winning three and we just won it felt like we won yeah and and it felt
like we were like we were like on the team but we were like on the bench yeah i was holding the
clipboard and i was just like totally on the team we felt like we were on the team and our team just
won the super bowl and you were the mvp yeah that's right whoa and then the second thing it
felt like which is even more apropos, is that picture that
you posted on the Nicky Pod Instagram, that felt like, for the first time in my life,
I felt like Jerry Maguire, the end of Jerry Maguire.
You know when Jerry Maguire hugs Cuba Gooding Jr. after he catches that touchdown and then
gets knocked unconscious, then you're like, oh my God.
And everything was on the line.
Yes.
That was, I can't, I've never felt. You complete me. Show me the money well that's time well that's yeah those are phrases from that yeah
i have the need for speed yeah yeah yeah yes yes uh yeah show me the birded yeah these are all
great phrases from the movie um but no it felt like that i was a human head weighs eight pounds
yeah yeah uh that's is? You had me at hello.
Wow.
Yeah, that's another one.
You're right.
There was so many catchphrases.
That was a great movie.
It's one of my favorite movies ever.
Yeah.
Let's talk about that.
I am overwhelmed.
I am overwhelmed right now.
Help me help you.
Well, there are so many good moments from that movie.
Who's coming with me?
It was shaking the bag with the little fish in it that I still worry about that fish to this day.
I'm overwhelmed.
Like, let me just say, like, from,
I've never been on,
I've had a lot of big moments in my life
where I felt like the center of attention
and like, wow, I did, like,
this is all about me, you know,
taping specials and other roasts where I've had, like, really good showings. But I've never I'm, this is all about me, you know, taping specials and, um, and other roasts
where I've had like really good showings, but I've never felt like Taylor Swift until
last night.
Like I really felt in this morning to like, it's just like, I feel like she must feel
after some, and it's, it's not even after she releases an album.
It's like after she announcesmys announces like like wins a
thing or or even like comes out as dating someone like i feel undis like i feel like i i i'm just
like i don't well i don't want all this i didn't ask for like i don't know that i wanted this well
here's the good news it's not gonna last that everyone's talking about you right now you're
the talk of the town that's why I'm playing it so
down because I know it's going to go away.
You've got to absorb it. Absorb it for a week.
I can't do it, dude. I was just talking
to my parents about this because we're having issues with my
niece and nephew about how they can't
handle birthdays because
we have to buy all the kids' presents on their birthdays
and they become so obsessed
with the presents that
there's nothing before,
like the presents need to be open right away
and if they're not open,
we can't talk about anything else
because they want this dopamine hit of this present.
And when I was a kid,
I used to not want to open presents ever
because I knew the crash that happens
after you open a present
and that I like the build.
I like edging.
I like the gooning.
And to me, this is like, I was gooning being able to be like, I'm doing the roast.
I mean, I didn't even goon that much because I wasn't bragging about it or posting about it, really.
I talked about it a little bit when I could.
But now that it's, I know that this is the biggest moment anyone could ever ask for in their career.
It literally won't ever be this big for me.
Not that concentrated.
Even if I host SNL, I was telling
Chris this, even if my dreams come true,
I host SNL, it's not like
no one has, and I don't
even like that it's competitive like this, or someone
saying, you won it, you had the best one, because
I honestly think it's, there were
many factors contributing to me
being the best, that if someone else had been in my
slot, that was a very perfect time
opportunity to do it, and all these other things you had a great slot i do and i did and i will always and
you've said it before and you'll say it again every night and um but i do feel that uh i'm
scared when i'm not scared when it goes away but it'll be fine when it goes away because i'm not
letting it in too much but it is really i don But it is really. It is. I don't think so.
Because I would be too depressed.
You very rarely celebrate your wins.
She's a flaws first gal.
Wait.
Enneagram what number?
Three.
Three?
Yes.
I don't know.
It means I'm always striving for achievement.
And I can't.
Well, I had so much help on this roast, I feel like.
Like, everyone does that does a roast.
That you, you you know work with
other people and you pour over it i mean chris and brian and a slew of other people were coming
out with me to every show and we were doing notes afterwards and it felt like a collaborative thing
so it feels really nice but it's like i um i just feel like it's a and it's a lot of pressure too because it's i know even what it's
like to be someone who's known for roasting not on even this level but before this was known for
roasting and what people expect of you when you go do things and like all right come come at the
with us give us the jokes roast us and it's like i can't perform at that level like people don't
understand that took weeks to come up with that.
Like even my friend who knows very much about the industry was like, this just comes so naturally to you.
He was like, it feels like you could just do this in your sleep.
And I'm like, no, I do this without sleep.
It took weeks of no sleep to do this.
Not in my sleep at all.
This was an extreme effort. But that's like, I feel like that's even more of a reason to celebrate
because you worked so hard
for this
that you do deserve it.
It's not like
it was an accident.
It was not like something
that just happened by chance
that you got lucky.
Like you put in,
you knew what you had to do
because you've done the roast before.
Yeah.
You put in the work
and you smashed it.
What you did,
what you did
and what Tony did
were like,
oh,
this is the pinnacle of what this art form is.
Right.
You know, like you reached that pinnacle.
And it was, I mean, it was magnificent to watch.
Thank you.
It was as magnificent to watch as like a beautiful play in football or like an alley-oop.
Like it's one of these things that's just like, there was magic in that last night.
Thank you.
And a lot of people were great.
I thought you were going to say it was like watching a beautiful play, like The Nutcracker or All My Sons.
No, no, there's a lot of grace in those.
I was like, oh my God, it was like theatrical.
Like, it was like a Broadway show performance.
No, that means so much to me.
I mean, obviously, like being in a realm of being on stage with other athletes, like it felt like an athletic endeavor.
It felt like I just because of the competitive nature of it as well.
Felt like, yeah, winning.
It's one of those rare instances where comedy is competitive.
It's like if you're on Last Comic Standing, which you also did.
Yes.
Roasts are always you're always going to be compared to the other people whereas if it was just like a comedy showcase yeah there's like people in their
heads make like oh that was my favorite but it's not like that was the winner and in a roast even
if you're not a roast battle even if it's just a roast people are saying there's on twitter it's
just rankings yes and nikki's always on top well that really nice. 99.9% of the time. That's nice.
Sometimes people say Bill Belichick.
But I gotta say that even that point, I didn't realize, I mean, I know that I'm highly competitive.
There's no question about it.
Just based on what I've heard from other people telling me when we play games or when we just, that I'm competitive.
It's a quality about myself I didn't know I had, but I absolutely am because of the nature.
Like I could not have,
I would not be okay with being not like if someone else was being talked about
the way I'm being talked about.
That's why I was just like,
I don't want to talk about me being the best because I am thinking about
everyone else on the thing.
And I'm like,
I would not be able to handle not being considered being the best or being in that conversation.
I and I think it's I don't really even believe when people are saying it to me.
But I am like haunted by if I was not considered like I wouldn't be able to get out of bed.
And the pressure was on.
You know, you were anyone who knows Nikki Glaser knows that you were expected to be one of the leading candidates to win this and so i think
one of the best things that you did was two months ago you recognized this event i think is a big
deal which is not easy to recognize sometimes you go into things like this and i mean i think there's
a couple people who didn't realize that like oh my god this is at the world's watching the world's watching
imagine if you didn't realize
that and like and you showed
up having done like maybe a week
of prep or something and you were like
wait a second I think I fucked up
because it really takes in order to
craft a set that's that tight that's
that perfectly that's
to be able to execute it like that it requires
and we worked that much effort
fucking wire we worked down to the very last second there was and we cut some jokes we cut
some good stuff needed to be cut yeah definitely needed to be cut because and yeah in the end like
the the craftsmanship of this is so intricate i would never have even assumed it myself when it
comes to to just considering
okay, how hard
is everyone, first of all, how hard is everyone going to go?
We have no clue. We literally have
no clue because no one's telling me anything
about it. It's all siloed, so when they do these roasts
they don't tell each other any of the jokes.
You don't get to, unless you get like a
spy that's seeing someone run their
set and then you get some like
information and sometimes the information is wrong
and let me say unlike the Patriots I
do not like to spy I don't like to
cheat but we did get false information
too no I think it wasn't false
I think it was just he was running
people were running we have to go to break
so we'll cover that in a second but I do like to
say like I said this before like I don't
when I was talking about when I'm learning about
the Patriots and like spy gate and deflate gate and all these things that they got kind of caught doing was talking about when I'm learning about the Patriots and SpyGate and Deflategate and all these things
that they got kind of caught doing some shifty stuff,
I'm like, why would you want to win knowing that you cheated?
But then Chris told me because they want to win
and they'll do anything to win.
Also, in their minds, it's not really cheating.
It's like, remember the saying?
Show me the money.
Win at any cost.
Nope.
If you ain't cheating, you don't want to win.
If you ain't cheating.
You're not winning.
Do you know it?
You had me at hello.
If you ain't cheating.
If you ain't cheating, you ain't trying.
Exactly.
And I think that is such bullshit.
But that is.
Oh, my goodness.
We're going to go to break and figure out what's going on with this mic.
And we'll talk more about the roast when we get back.

All right, we're back.
If you're watching video,
we're in this beautiful studio in Los Angeles,
and my makeup is perfect
because I had it done at 3.30 in the morning
for Howard Stern.
It's extraordinary.
It really is well done.
It's like...
Thank you so much to Veronica
for nailing it.
We were talking about
winning. So I want to give some
shoutouts to people who gave you shoutouts
at the roast because I think that was
nice to see also. First thing was
Kevin Hart hosted the roast.
He was incredible. I can't
believe, I can't imagine a better person to host this thing.
It was like he had heartfelt moments.
He made Bill Belichick and Robert Kraft bury the hatchet, which was incredible.
Who else could pull that off?
At that point in the show, I was so tired.
And I was like, do we have to do this?
Now we have to find alcohol to put in these shots because there's none.
I was just like, oh, I don't want to do this. And this and then i was like wait a second this is insane that this is happening
and they kind of both don't want to do it but it's like a major moment it was awesome there
were so many newsworthy moments and this was really must see tv netflix has just asserted
its dominance over media with this event i can't imagine being one of the other streamers and looking at this
and being like, what the fuck do we do now?
Because this was absolutely
a colossal success.
Anyway, Kevin Hart
after your set,
he had a great set, and after your set,
it's all on film, we all got it,
he says, I don't
know if you're watching this live, I don't know if you're
seeing this,
but that is a standing ovation. And that's what you got.
And you didn't get a standing ovation when you came out like other people did.
You earned their love.
You earned it.
It's never happened to me before in my life.
I mean,
there's been shows where I've done really well and some people have stood and
others just stood to kind of like be polite because they have to go to the
bathroom or something.
They eventually have to stand.
Did you feel it in the moment?
Did you see it?
No,
I was so embarrassed.
It's just,
I know this sounds like I'm trying to be like humble,
like sweet,
but I just,
when things go too well,
I just want to go crawl in a hole.
And so after it happened,
I was like,
I was embarrassed because I kind of knew it was,
I nailed it.
And I just wanted to like go beat.
I just wanted to sit and I wanted the show to move on and I wanted to
process it and look.
And then I didn't want to look at the crowd because I thought I don't ever
like to like try to get something out of people.
And I thought if I looked at the crowd,
they're going to think I won it or something.
So I just didn't want to look.
And then when they stood,
when he said it was the only reason I knew it was happening.
And then I was just like,
Oh my God.
And then I felt like him saying it, maybe they're doing it now because he said it was the only reason I knew it was happening. And then I was just like, oh my God.
And then I felt like him saying it, maybe they're doing it now because he said that they're doing it.
Like I was just so nervous about it.
It was like, we couldn't help it.
We were compulsed.
He was just being a generous host.
That was so cool of him.
I love Kevin Hart.
So awesome of him.
He did not need to do that.
What did you think of that?
To me, it's what I was saying.
It's what I've been saying forever about YouTube comments.
It tells you how to feel about something. So you can like something that you watch on YouTube but if something
underneath has 2,000 likes or it's it's you know a reputable like someone well-known writes under
like goat status or like best thing I've ever seen you like someone you respect you suddenly
like the video more you can't help it it's subliminal and that is what he
did like even if you don't like kevin hart someone saying that was i just want you to know that's the
art form of roasting whatever he said like that's the that what she just did was like it it was
crazy and so afterwards i went up to him and i was like i know exactly what you did for me tonight
and you didn't have to do that and i go people, people are going to say I had the set of the roast
and they don't know
why they're saying that,
but a big part of why
they're saying this
is that because you said it
without saying it
and you doubled down.
And he said to me,
he whispered in my ear,
he like pulled over,
you know,
the guy,
Robbie from Netflix
who booked me on the show
and then he pulled over
Ted Sarandos,
the president of Netflix.
And he's like,
these are the two guys that are most responsible for this comedy festival and
comedy on Netflix.
And he like had us all together and he's like,
I don't need,
you know,
I'm,
I'm,
I forget whether he said this to me or to them,
but he said,
cause he was whispering in my ear for a minute.
And I was just like,
it was the same feel like a,
it was just like crazy to have Kevin Hart's like,
I'm like, Kevin Hart's the most famous person. He's the most famous voice.
And I only get to hear that no one else will ever hear what I'm hearing right now.
It's just for me.
Like, you know, even if we're talking conversation, other people could get involved.
Like this is just private between us.
It was like the DM of talking.
Famous person's whisper. It was was so great a whisper is the dm
one of those disappearing snapshots of talking but he said to me um and now i'm i'm i'm uh you
know ruining it by telling everyone but not even no he told me that um he's a famous enough he's
like i'm i'm not gonna get any bigger i have to use this to now uplift
uplift others so he knew what he was doing yeah and he did it throughout the show commenting on
other people's making sure they had their moment like celebrating after the fact man that and that
joke you just told repeating people's jokes yeah like he was so good he was so good he was just so
in the moment and really made it his own. And he's just so easy to watch.
You know he's just in control.
You know nothing can go wrong when Kevin Hart.
If it gets awkward, Kevin will get us out of it.
He's riding this plane in any kind of storm.
He's the guy you want at the helm.
Absolutely.
And so funny.
I mean, he was so funny.
The set was amazing.
And then he built in, fuck you, Tom Brady.
Perfect thing to go back to when anything tanks or anything doesn't go the way you want it to.
Fuck you, Tom.
And then Tom Brady calls it back at the end.
Oh, it was beautiful.
I think that was part of his intent to give other people moments.
Kevin Hart's a comedic genius.
Really, he is.
I mean, no doubt.
Absolutely. He should win the Mark Twain Prize. I feel like he deserves
the Mark Twain Prize award for comedy
excellence, which is what Chris Convey,
my boyfriend, produced, which is going to be
airing May 11th on
Netflix, which is what you should watch after
you watch my special, May 11th

Thank you.
You're so funny.
You're so dynamic.
You look incredible.
It's like I'm so proud of it for you.
Thank you.
Well, again, it was like a group effort.
It's so fun to work on these things with my best friends.
But everything is a group effort.
That's one thing that Nikki, like Taylor Swift works with that guy, Jack Antonoff.
I know, that guy.
To help make incredible things.
That's why she brings him on stage at the Grammys and shouts him out.
And Tim Robinson works with Zach Cannon.
Yes.
Yes.
He works with Zach Cannon.
Okay.
Who you kind of look like.
I look like Zach.
Ooh, Cannon bird.
Oh, boy.
Oh, that's who burned a cannon?
Jerry Seinfeld works with Larry David.
Yes.
People say I sometimes act like Larry David.
Yes, a lot. with Larry David. Yes. People say I sometimes act like Larry David.
Yes, a lot.
When I see you do stand-up,
I'm just like,
this is a young Larry David.
And it's not an imitation by any means.
No, no, no, no.
You are thoroughly yourself,
but I love your stand-up.
Yeah.
Big fan of your stand-up.
But I want to hear
what happened in the circle
with Ted Sarandos and Kevin.
Was it just the whisper
that you wanted to talk about?
There were other things said,
but I feel like that is something I don't want to
talk about. It's just more bragging.
More bragging.
All the nice things that could be said
were said to me last night by literally
everyone. I just went to lunch with my... You met Chappelle?
I went to breakfast with my parents. What did Dave
Chappelle say to you again? Nikki, what did that
person... Now, what did Caroline Ray text to you?
What did Bethany Frankoltes text you?
What did Chelsea Handler send to you? What did Sarah Silver Frankoltes text you? What did Chelsea Handler send you?
What did Sarah Silverman send you?
I mean, like, literally, Chelsea Handler DM'd me.
Sarah Silverman DM'd me.
Chelsea was great.
And, like, every time I refresh my DMs, it's, like, 14 blue check marks of people I've never even,
who I didn't even know who knew me, are writing, like, paragraphs to me about it.
Amazing.
It's there's nothing like this.
It's it's I feel like I'm in a I really feel like I'm in a dream.
I feel like I died.
I'm not even joking.
It's like it's because I've done the roast before, but then they take like a month to air.
And like even the Alec Baldwin roast, that wouldn't really change my life because it just, it started going viral on Twitter during COVID or maybe like right before
COVID,
but it aired like it aired probably three months before it caught wind.
Like it was a big deal when it aired and people,
I got a lot of,
you know,
uh,
accolades for it.
You got a lot of like,
uh,
whispers.
I got a lot of,
I've got a lot of whispers onispers i got a lot of i've got whispers on instagram yes
but i didn't but then i remember rob mccallany from always sunny from welcome to rexham exactly
and um it's always sunny in rexham premiering may 2nd on hulu fx on hulu he um he like retweeted it
and then i think it caught it just caught fire and then it was like all of a sudden i had some
point ones happening and then i go what's going on and then it was like, all of a sudden, I had some point ones happening and then I go,
what's going on?
And then I realized,
I wasn't on Twitter at the time a lot
and I'm still not,
but this is like,
that times a thousand.
How many roasts have you done?
That was my fourth.
And so,
who have you done?
Rob Lowe,
Bruce Willis,
Alec Baldwin,
Tom Brady.
Wow. And do you remember the first time that you
that they asked you to do the first roast were you like shocked were you like oh i i was hoping
this would come i think it was like during not safe so when i had the show on comedy central
with you guys and and i think at that point i had um jeff r Ross had the show The Burn that was on.
And I think it was not on anymore at that time, but I had done that show.
And Gary Mann at Comedy Central, who was a fan of mine from seeing me at a festival.
Like this is how things happen.
He was at a festival where I opened for Schumer.
I killed.
He was like became a huge fan of mine started kind of following and being like i
really like you he was the one that um was like you know working at comedy central when i was
when the burn was on and and booked me on that and then i had a really good showing on that
um it was ralphie may and al madrigal and i was like i had some joke about Al Madrigal I
Oh, Al Madrigal, I wanted to
smoke some weed with him once and so I asked for his
papers and he sprinted off. It was something
about asking for, it was some joke
about that I remember. There was some joke about
Ralphie not being able to wash the middle of his back.
You know, just classic
fat jokes. Rest in peace.
Yes, rest in peace Ralphiephie may and um and i
i remember being like having a little bit of uh people go oh that was like a really good showing
for just that show and then i think after that um i think it was just the right timing where it was
like whitney was not wanting to do them anymore amy was not wanting to do them anymore there was
sarah was probably not too much it was like there was a space for it yeah you know that but i remember the first
the first one i did i was you know i knew i was like maybe a consideration but it was about who
who's gonna say no and then we'll ask her and then this was and it always kind of felt that way with
comedy central because it was always like i would know about a roast happening i would hear other
people getting booked on it
and I would be bugging
my manager
when are we going to get the yes
when's it going to happen
and then it would finally
come through
I think the Alec Baldwin one
maybe was a little bit
earlier ask than usual
and it felt like
okay this is my third
of course they're going to have me
oh Natasha Legere of course
also
someone who would like
she's one of my favorites
she's one of the best
ever
ever
I watched
I watched all of hers to get ready for this I watched a lot of people's to get ready for this someone who would like she's one of my favorites she's one of the best ever ever i watched so like
i watched all of hers to get ready for this i watched a lot of people's to get ready for this
that's what really got me in the in the road inspired yeah but this one came about i got the
call i got the text when i was with my mom in my kitchen you were out of town chris and because i
remember when i told you we were um when you got the call I was in my apartment
I think I was I don't know where I was no I think I was oh I know what we were doing I was I think
it was we were working on the special something it was I was on something with you and I was
I think I just you were on a zoom with me and I think I told you on the zoom maybe like oh my god
I just got asked oh yeah it was maybe later in the afternoon I saw you on the Zoom, maybe? You're like, oh my God, I just got asked? Oh yeah, I kind of remember this.
It was maybe later in the afternoon I saw you before I saw Chris, because I wanted to
tell Chris in person, but I think I might have told you.
I forget how it happened, but I remember it was with my mom, and it was so in advance
that I got asked, in advance, compared to the other ones.
It was before we even went to Australia.
Oh yeah.
I mean, I knew, when you said you got, I was like, this is Tom Brady. I mean, I think it's the biggest star that's ever been- Well, I, yeah. I mean, I knew when you said you got, I was like, this is Tom Brady.
I mean, I think it's the biggest star that's ever been roasted.
I found out he was, I think it was announced he was doing a roast in maybe November or December.
Like, it was like a while ago.
Yeah.
And I instantly wrote, and I was saying like, I don't want to do a roast again.
I don't want to get called old. I don't want to get called old I don't want to get called
ugly I don't want to like I'm not going to
do it again to myself because it just really
killed me the last couple times not just about
that stuff but about
just the work it took
and feeling so anxious
and like crying the nights before
and feeling like my life was falling
apart and just really too much anxiety
too much pressure couldn't didn't want to do it again really saying that to myself when they didn't
ask so that I wouldn't feel bad right right so so but then when it was announced I instantly wrote
Robbie at Netflix and I said I I would like to or I wrote to my agent or manager and said I want to
do this roast and he said we're on it we're already on it and then I wrote personally to
Robbie I think Robbie wrote me about something else and I was like hey I want this roast and he said we're on it we're already on it and then i wrote personally to robbie i think robbie wrote me about something else and i was like hey i want this roast of
tom brady and he was like i think he said you know we're we're in talks with tom and i told him
i said um i don't know i was just in a mood that day you know like how you can just
like one day just have marlon brando what's that you can just like you're just unstoppable
i just like had the right amount of caffeine sleep sunshine vitamin d like whatever going on
yep uh spray tan was like just popping off that day my car wasn't smelling weird i don't know it
was like the right breeze the right exact time of moment and i got like text from robbie and i said
tell tom brady he was because he was like you know i'm going to talk to him about and he's
choosing essentially and i said tell him that i'm the tom brady of roasting and that a tom brady
roast would not be a tom brady roast without the tom brady of roasting oh he would love that and i
said i i will because what i knew about him at that moment, in that time, was that he works hard
and he's the greatest.
And I honestly didn't believe this about myself, I think, really.
Like, I think there's other people that are better roasters than me in the history of
roasting.
But at the time, I was thinking, I just got to get this.
Well, the cool thing about you doing that is that the story of Tom meeting richard craft the owner of the patriots
for the first time the first time he ever met richard craft he says i'm the best decision
this franchise has ever made yep yes and so he would love something like that yeah i felt like
he would and you're appealing to his to like to him even last night after i after the roast i ran
into him in the hallway because i didn't meet him before the roast, I ran into him in the hallway
because I didn't meet him before the roast.
I only literally interacted him when I went up to him.
You ran into him and then he immediately slid?
Boom.
I'm still roasting him.
You were dying to get that joke.
Not so.
He didn't go to the after party
and he was on his way out.
He was packed up and ready to go walking out.
And I walked by him and I was just his way out like he had his like he was packed up and ready to go walking out and i walked by him and i was just like tom and i wasn't going to say anything because it was
enough just to like hug him afterwards and he said great job thank you yeah i'm so sad i didn't film
that i was right there when it happened too it was so nice i snuck two pictures someone has footage
of it on netflix oh great yeah it was like behind the scenes yeah no no no oh wait
you're talking about that moment that moment in the hallway i was talking about right after i uh
i hugged him on the day so that's why i was joking it's funny because there must have been a backstage
camera no my girl's chat is popping off today because carlisle was the audience she's like
why didn't i take more pictures why didn't i take more footage i'm like it's it's all documented
but it was very sweet it's it's all documented but it
was very sweet it's like that louis ck joke when he's like when you see the flashes of all the
cameras at the super bowl and it's like yeah like your camera light on your phone little
it's illuminating the stadium light yep um so backstage when i walked by him i just said uh
thank you so much and he was like you did a great job you did a great job
he said good luck to you which made me feel like we'll never meet again and uh wow what the fuck
maybe because the last your last statement was um yeah it was like hey it was an invite essentially
yeah yeah and it was good luck with uh trying to pursue that. But I said, and obviously I said, and you were amazing.
You Tom Brady'd the shit out of that.
I literally used it as a, I was like, you just completely Tom Brady'd that.
Of course you did.
But that is what he did.
Yeah, no, he did.
He did.
He was great.
And I knew he would.
As you were walking down the hallway, I overheard him being like, she was so funny.
Oh, really?
To a big group of people, yeah.
Yeah.
And right behind me were my parents when this interaction happened.
And my mom had a couple too many and had the balls to go, I'm Nikki's mom.
And shook his hand.
My dad, I'm Nikki's dad.
And that was unnecessary.
But you know what?
Why not? He gave them a nice moment. He did. He did give them a nice moment. He said she did very well. Speaking of your mom. dad i'm nikki's dad and um that that was unnecessary but you know what why not he gave
them a nice moment he did he did give them a nice moment he said she did very well speaking of your
mom i mean i can't believe my parents met tom brady i mean that is ridiculous yeah they don't
they don't deserve that and you did such a great job that they were like bragging to him about you
they weren't in awe of him they were like that's my daughter totally because they're not even they
don't even understand what he is.
You know, like they get it, but they don't really get it.
So to them, it was just.
I mean, yeah.
I was hanging with your mom and dad at the after party for a little while.
Oh, dude.
Your mom was a little loose.
Yeah, one of my.
Oh, go ahead.
She was just, she was loose and spouting off exclusively about how proud she was of you.
Yes.
It was exclusively, I'm so proud of my daughter.
Can you believe I'm her mom?
Like, it was just so wonderful.
That's so cute.
Everyone was saying how cute she was.
You got bailed out of a, what could have been a rough moment.
I loved the Chappelle moment.
What happened there?
It was so funny.
So, you know, obviously Mrs. Glazer was having the time of her life, like bragging about Nikki to anybody who would listen.
I tried to cut her off.
And like having fun and just like having this great time.
I'm just like, Mom, yeah, she had a couple, she got a little over-served because she was nervous for me.
Yes.
And then when my mom gets over-served, she gets like, she has no filter and has to comment on everything and kind of is one of those people
that sometimes you can feel like i i mean maybe i'm projecting because i used to be this kind of
person but i felt like you trap people in a conversation and they kind of are like okay and
like i i just was very uh concerned with who she was talking to and what she was saying to them
because she can sometimes be insulting.
Most of us, let's say you were on the roast, Chris, and I'm Nikki's mom.
I would just say, a sober person would go, you were amazing last night.
Thinking in my head, my daughter did better than you.
But I'm not going to say that.
I'm going to focus on all the things you did well.
But because my mom's drunk mind is saying, don't say that my daughter did better than you. But I'm not going to say that. I'm going to focus on all the things you did well. But because my mom's drunk mind is saying,
don't say that my daughter was better.
And I don't think that Nikki was that better.
Everyone's saying Nikki's better than you.
You were amazing too.
She has to say the thing that her mind is telling her not to say.
And so there was a lot of that happening last night
where it was just like I had to just tap her around different people of like let's calm down with the and i heard this
person say you were the best i'm like but they're another person that's on the roast is right next
to us like i was just so aware of that because if i were another person i mean other people aren't
like me and they can handle not being the best and they're fine with it i can't imagine that
even though i'm often not the best and it's it
that's why my life's so hard i can't handle it so last night we get back from the i've almost
been exclusively in that other person's position where someone next to me is being told they're
the best and i'm still i'm so i i can relate to those guys i can relate to them too and that's
why i don't i when i go to the bathroom After a show I go And I close my ears
Because I don't want to hear
Anyone complimenting anyone else
Like I protect myself
From any kind of
I mute people on Instagram
That are killing it
Like I can't
I know it's pathetic
I can't really handle
Even though I know
I'm not the best
Even when I am the best
I can't admit I am
So I'm never winning
In my life
Ever
So it's pathetic
I'm sorry to admit it
And I know people
are gonna judge me and say like that's really pathetic of her i don't know why my mind is that
way i can't help it don't get mad at me even that is like people are gonna say i'm pathetic
as opposed to like they will they're like why does she always have to be the best
nikki always thinks like even when she is the best it's not good enough and then she wants to be the
best and she can't even celebrate other people she has to mute other people because she's so desperate for
attention and like celebrate other people you do great celebrating other people i do but it's
really hard for me it would it would have been really hard for me to be not considered the best
last night and and but but generally the other roasts i've done there haven't been like these
like you are the like there weren't these it was so clear moments of that and what i said came true what i said the night before outside the laugh factory
after your last set and it wasn't the night before yes it was the night before after the
laughter i said this is going to solidify you as the best roaster that is alive and
there there will not it will not be peace norm Norm MacDonald and Greg Giroldo.
In the future, there cannot be a roast without Nikki Glaser.
If Nikki's not there, then it's not even a roast anymore.
That's so nice.
That's what I really wanted was just like, I just want to invite to the next one.
And I think I have one.
If you're not there, it's not a roast.
Oh, that's nice.
It's like, how could you?
Who knows?
They could forget by the next time. You don't understand like you're not the champ unless they can convince they can forget
by the next time five years it was five years since the last one and where i killed and it was
not a it was not a non-negotiable that i would be you made a really good point earlier this was
this was live so you used to do the roast and they would they would happen and everybody would be
like that was great and you were wonderful.
There was a lot of people talking about it the next day.
There's a lot of publications about it, like rumors about what's it going to be like.
Who was there?
And then they go into an edit and they make everybody look as good as possible.
You know, I know the guy who edits it.
He's a brilliant man and he does things that make everybody look like they just crushed.
Yes.
And this was really interesting because not only were the people who are, you know, like the people who choose these things were in the room and experienced it live.
The reaction was happening live as well.
Another brilliant stroke by Netflix.
Yeah.
To make this live.
Well, you know what?
Who had the best joke about it?
Jeff had said that it was, God i i i fucking love jeff ross's set i really
like i thought he he got back to the couch and i said i think that's i'm gonna i'm i'm nicky if
you're listening to this in the future and you're preparing for roast go watch jeff ross's roast set
from the tom brady roast don't forget that you said watch that again because that was
fucking masterful it was there was so many and you there was so much show that happened after him
that he's getting eclipsed and being talked about i have to say but he he really had insane but he
had this joke about saying it was like this is a boston night he was like something about it being
like a night like a classic boston there it's gonna be a marathon and someone's gonna bomb
he also has a mastery of the space and the room.
The way he's playing with all the people on stage
and the entire room.
Oh, he's so fun.
That's extraordinary.
Tom Brady had that 9-11 joke.
I mean, that was also shocking.
How edgy Tom Brady was.
Just seeing Tom Brady say,
fuck you Jets,
then give the crowd the middle finger
is insane.
There were some wild moments last night that
I was even like, I can't believe people
went there. We're going to talk about it when we get back from break
and we're also going to talk about why we are
so glad my mom went to the bathroom at one point
in the evening when we get back.

So I'm at the party and Chappelle comes up quickly... Let's just close the loop on the Chappelle story. Let's close the loop on the... Yes. So,
I'm at the party and Chappelle comes up.
Chappelle's just there.
I didn't even know.
He's at every single
cool event
that exists in Hollywood.
He's always there.
He's so cool.
I mean,
let's be honest,
he is the GOAT.
Yes.
He's the GOAT
and he's the king of Hollywood.
He is the coolest person
alive.
And I...
He absolutely is and so kind and i've you know
i've run into him over the years in fact i did um we i you know i remember every moment i've ever
even crossed paths with him but we had like he was really nice to me at this brunch at the comedy
cellar one day when he didn't need to be and was just listening to me and asking me follow-up
questions and just
i just felt like man that was special that's all i've ever needed from him and then i did the
tonight show on zoom in 2021 and i was the second guest he was the first guest and he wasn't he
didn't need to stay when you get off a zoom like when you're on a show even when you're there in
person a lot of times the first guest literally leaves this isn't like the graham norton show everyone stays on the couch and certainly when it's on zoom he stayed on
the zoom through that for the for the second for the rest of the show and watched my set that's
amazing and and um told someone to tell me what a great job i did and like watched my interview
it's not like i did a comedy set he just my interview. And so I've always loved him since then.
And then last night, I, oh, and then, no, we were at Ted Sarandos' house at a brunch on Saturday, two days before the roast.
Just two days ago, even though it's usually a week ago.
It feels like a month ago.
We were at Ted Sarandos' house with literally comedy, with all of comedy.
Every single person in comedy.
It was extraordinary.
Yes. The people that were there. You were supposed supposed to go brian because you were going to be tim
dylan's plus one but tim dylan had to go to new york last minute and so he wasn't able to go and
and and because tim dylan pulled out of the event and brian had been already approved to be a plus
one brian got an email from who from an assistant of somebody. That said? You are no longer attending.
Period.
End of email.
End of email.
End of email.
And Chris and I were dissecting that being like, why is Hollywood so mean?
I get it.
But we get it because there are people that would still go in this business and would
like try to find a way in.
But I was a plus one and like sneak in somehow.
But I'm not one of those guys.
Of course you're not. I'm not going to try to go. They gonna try to go take the risk i'd love for you and tim to have
been there it was so oh we would have loved it but we we go to this event and every literally
everyone in comedy is there we take a group picture at one point yes with like a hundred
comedians and um we're all lined up in ted sarandos's like um you know indoor pool area
like you know like when all the buildings yeah like a courtyard classic yeah it was a courtyard We're all lined up in Ted Sarandos' indoor pool area,
like when all the buildings, like a courtyard.
Classic.
Yeah, it was a courtyard.
Yeah.
And we all lined up, and they have risers for us, like high school.
And I made the joke to my section of people,
because there were some people that were being really loud in the front,
and like, we need the attention.
And they were laying across everyone and joking. And then there were people like me and others that were just like on the side kind of like i
don't i don't need to really be in this and i'll just have like my the side of my head i don't
even know it'll be fine if they can see a little tuft of hair i don't care and i i've said if you
just snapped your fingers and put us all in high school we would be in the exact same spots yeah all of us because it's like we they felt so high school yeah and then mosha i guess in his section i heard about
it later from other people but mosha kasher made the joke that um if they mowed us all down they
were like he was like maybe they they brought us here to just murder us all and they're just gonna
do a reset on comedy they They need to just press them.
When the computer's not working anymore, just shut it, hold it down,
cause a harsh restart.
So then when I was walking away from that,
we took the photos and we were walking out,
then Chappelle came up to me and was like,
At the brunch.
Yes, I watch what you do. I've watched you over at the brunch yes i watch what you do i've watched
you over the years big fan of what you do things like that i mean i really black blacked it out
because i couldn't i mean function with him talking yeah when he speaks it's like and i was
getting ready to talk to bo burnham i was getting ready to like oh i love you you know like i because
there was a little bit of like but i felt like bo Bo was giving me an in because we've never met before,
but obviously we're aware of each other.
We should know each other.
And I'm obviously a huge Bo Burnham fan.
So I was about to go like, hey, Bo.
And then Chappelle was like,
all of a sudden he was just there.
I didn't even know he was at the thing yet.
That gives everybody an idea of what this party was like.
Nikki was going to talk to Bo and Chappelle was right there.
Yes.
And then, yeah, and I was like John Stewart hold
my purse and so it was just everyone was there but Chappelle stopped and said some stuff and I
just don't even remember I just said that means more to me than anything that's ever meant
things to me like I just said some but I was just like thank you just like you're just like quoting
Taylor Swift lyrics I mean I was I'm trying to think of what would be the perfect one.
I love her.
I sang love her to him.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I'll go where you go.
Ohio.
And then last night at the party.
You had that moment.
He came up to me again at the party last night and said, I said it to you yesterday.
I want to say it again.
Great job tonight. I watch what you do. I've been to you yesterday. I want to say it again. Great job tonight.
I watch what you do.
I've been watching you.
And I go, I love you.
Can I come to Ohio?
Can I come to your farm sometime?
I've been watching it from afar.
I want to go.
You know, I was like, I feel, I go,
I know you don't need any more friends,
but I feel like I'd be a good, we'd be good friends.
And he was like, I would love it.
I would love it. I would love it.
And then he's like, you know, he's very emphatic about it.
He's like, yes, why haven't you been there?
You want to go?
Yes.
And then he said, I'll have my people reach out to you.
He'll make it happen.
And then I just wanted to collapse.
I was just the happiest I could ever be.
That's the picture I posted was at the party.
And then we went after the party to my green room the female green room yes it was it said female on the door because it was females
no it just said female just one just female they i think they stole the sign from a bathroom that is
unreal it's just female that's even more everyone else had their names on doors yeah but ours just
said female and it was me and sam jay that is so weird it's insane it was i don't i don't know it was
like chat gbt made the signs or something like i don't know how that got yeah okay yeah respect
there weren't and it wasn't like there were tampons in the room there was nothing about
the room that was like this is just that it was you and sam jay well in their defense just to try
to figure this out maybe they were like we need to show a little bit more deference to this room
because there's females in here
who might be changing or something.
But there wasn't anymore.
No, I think it was more about like anonymity
so people wouldn't bother to go by and be like, oh.
And there was like Gronk on the other things.
It said Gronkowski and Edelman and Moss.
But then some people's doors had initials.
But still, you could figure that out.
I guess people could figure out the female too.
Yeah. There's a female? A little people could figure out the female, too. Yeah.
There's a female?
I think it was a little bit of anonymity.
Yeah.
Okay.
Maybe that...
We were in the female room.
We were in the female room, and we're just hanging out afterwards, like, kind of chilling
before we went, left the whole premises, because the after party was inside the forum.
We went back to my green room to collect my stuff to go home.
The Forum Club, which, by the way, the way, it's a famous place at the Forum
where the Lakers used to party after games.
They were like Playboy bunnies.
That was such a cool party too.
It was good music and good food
and cookies with Tom's face on them.
I took so many of those cookies.
I took so many too.
I took a bunch and I was like,
oh, my mom's going to love these cookies
to have to bring back home
and she'll save them and stuff. And so I gathered a bunch and i was like oh my mom's gonna love these cookies to like have to bring back home and we'll you know she'll save them and stuff and so i i gathered a bunch and then i went to
she's you know kind of half in the bag and so i went in her bag to as she's talking to me being
like nikki i love you you know i opened her bag to put her cookies in and there's like six cookies
already and i was like oh this bitch beat me to She's on it. She's been hoarding cookies for three hours. Of course, my mom.
Goodwill.
My mom going, is these free?
You can just take these?
Nikki, look what I got.
She showed me those cookies so many times.
I go, I know you have them.
I already, yes.
So we're hanging out in that room.
Bert Kreischer comes by with his wife.
Tom Segura pops in.
Everyone's kind of like making their way out.
Gronkowski, you know,
was walking, you know,
we were all.
And your mom's jawing back and forth
with all these people.
Oh, she's,
and I'm having to kind of put my hand on her
and go, mom, no more.
Like she kind of knows,
like she kind of starts telling a story
and I just go, we're good.
We're good on that.
And she's hilarious.
And I felt bad doing that
but it she was she kind of knows i just kept reminding her like you're my guest like i i if
i'm gonna have another drink i want another drink i i think i flew you here i think i'm paying for
everything i hate i never like to wave that i'm paying flag but i certainly did last night when
it was about the drinking and um but so um so, I'm just like, you know,
every time someone comes in, I'm just like,
please, like, just, like, don't engage my mom.
Like, it's just gonna go on longer than you want.
And it's not her best showing.
Like, she's just one drink over the limit
where someone's, like, fun.
And my mom is the, I just want to caveat this.
She's the greatest person.
Everybody listen to me.
I am the reason i am
because of my mom and i love her so much but then my mom goes final thought my mom goes to the
bathroom at one point into the female bathroom and um we kind of forget she's in there even
and then at that moment chris decides to take off his shirt because he's changing back from into his t-shirt from his
button-up shirt and the doors kind of open ajar and all i hear is is this guy trying to steal
burt kreischer's act it's dave chappelle oh my walks in sees chris comes into the room
says hello again to me it's great with your dad and you and yep talking to all of us my dad's
talking about ohio with him he is he what what else were they talking i mean i was just like
i couldn't i was stupefied he was just amazing he well the best compliment you can give somebody i
think is to say he that person seems happy and dave seems happy he was just so jovial and kind
to you so happy so cool and then he left and wasn't like
i'm dave chappelle like he's obviously aware of what he is and what he means to people because
as i was saying like i love you so much and you know uh there's like a graciousness like he's just
a he just reminds me of like a gandhi type figure like a religious figure, is how I feel
when he talks as well.
I feel like there's gospel in it.
His comedy has evolved to preaching
in a way. And just the way he holds himself,
he's a tall, formative
figure of a man, but
the way he just
seems like the
Dalai Lama. Of comedy. I mean, he really is like the Dalai Lama.
Of comedy.
I mean, he really is like the representative diplomat of comedy.
He is the representative embodied of comedy.
I can't think of the word.
But there's so much kindness exuding from him.
It's like, I just feel like there's so many people in this business that just get rotten
and act like they're really nice people or this business that just get rotten and become and and and act like
they're like really nice people or just aren't who they are and i just think he is who he is
and then he leaves and he stays for probably three minutes yeah yeah four minutes a decent
amount of time a big amount of time yeah a substantial enough amount of time that when
then and at one point while he's there,
I go, where did my mom go?
Like, I can feel that she's not here because this is all going so well.
And so, but there's a moment where I go,
where is my,
I don't even know that she's gone to the bathroom.
I didn't know she went in there.
And then Dave Chappelle walks out,
says goodnight, we all say goodnight.
And the second he walks out,
my mom goes, well, that bathroom's amazing.
Nikki, did you see it in there that's soap in there did you see those napkins i'm taking and we just are we all look
at each other like we just dodged such a bullet i was just like oh my god and my mom's just kind
of like what and i'm like we'll tell you later like i don't even want it because i knew she
would be like where is he she would probably like run back down the hallway so we didn't even tell her till
we were in the car and she goes when was dave chappelle there she's freaking out my dad goes
i told you he was right there and i go no we didn't dad we all like miss dave chappelle she
was so when did he and i go you were in the bathroom and i go i don't know what you were
doing in there because she was in there for a while but she was like i did not go number two in that bathroom i don't know and i go i don't know what
you were doing that but i love that your pants were complicated or whatever the fuck was happening
um so yeah in two you know tomorrow's podcast which we were recording in two days but we
recorded this one on monday just so you could know um listener we will get into more joke specific
stuff and um and just more things of the night.
But I mean...
Boy, it was fun.
There's so many funny things to talk about.
My life has changed today.
I woke up a different human being.
Point one.
Point one.
That's right.
Let's just check it,
see if anything's happened.
1.1 Mandela's.
Can you believe it?
Let's just see.
Nobody can believe it.
I'm still at 1.1.
Hasn't dropped.
Let's see if anyone interesting new has dm'd me um let's see uh aaron foster i don't know she's someone who's uh i've always
wanted to think i was cool oh you know what let's get jack robbins on board here who's jack robbins
tim robbins and susan sarandon's son he's done some funny videos that
i've liked recently okay all right i want jack robbins oh wait okay this controversial figure
dave portnoy on twitter yes i know you were the number one uh number one set of the night he's
the barstool barstool sports guy that's pretty good i will say the funniest thing that got said to me last night
Andrew Schultz who had an amazing set
yes
incredibly gracious
yeah really and threw me
a compliment in the middle of
his set thank you so much Andrew
and I talked to him
afterwards and we both talked about how
we both worked really hard on this.
And I could tell he worked hard as well.
He had some fucking amazing jokes.
He had great jokes.
And he just, if he would have had my spot, we might be having a different conversation today.
Like it was, he went later on in the show, which is a much harder spot to be in.
And I will always give him that.
Audiences can't handle over two and a half hour shows.
And he was on after the two hour mark yeah he was
after the two hour mark yeah and yeah he was but yeah he was great i was trying to find him after
the show he was awesome but he said to me he believes what did he say hold on i have to get
it right he believes that he said the fact that anyone no he said the fact that anyone is saying
that we both had the sets of the night makes me believe in sexism because you clearly did and they're not giving you the credit that you deserve
and that really made me laugh he was like like for a guy who's like kind of known for like
having a podcast that is maybe geared towards men who are not as uh you know comfortable admitting that there's you know
inherent sexism in the world but for him to say finally i'm on board which he was obviously
joking he's on board but he goes fine like i am i know there's sexism now for the idea that
anyone thinks we are equal i'm i can't wait for me to have a similar epiphany yeah
i've heard a lot about it, but I haven't seen it.
I'll talk to Andrew about it.
Yeah, I just, I'm so tired.
You should get out of here.
I got to go do another podcast.
Oh, yeah?
I'm going to do Tiger Belly.
Oh.
Yeah, I got to bring it.
I love that one. I love it so much.
I'm just going to giggle the whole time. Yeah, it was so much fun. I love that one. I love it so much. I'm just gonna giggle the whole time.
Yeah, it was so much fun.
Thank you, guys.
Thank you, Brian.
Thank you, Chris.
Thank you so much for everything leading up to this.
Of course.
Because I could not, literally could not have done it without both of you.
More roast chat on the next podcast, right?
Because there's so much funny stuff that we still have to cover.
Yes, there's so much.
And I hope I remember to get to it.
Thank you guys for listening.
