Episode Date: July 3, 2019

ATTN: We here at YMH Studios would like to apologize on behalf of the entire production team for the error in the Intros length. We will strive henceforth to be diligent in providing what is required ...in terms of Intro expectations. We appreciate your patience as we look to rectify this situation going forward. A lively debate about who the "fan champ" is starts off the show before we do another dive into Christina's TikTok feed. What is everyone's "sneeze limit?" Christina also continues her evolution as she has recently discovered pop music. Plus, Tom discusses his recent stance on Comedy Club pay for openers in 2019. Amanda Cerny has had a whirlwind last few years. The Mommies get the skinny on Hef and the Playboy Mansion, show Amanda some TikTok studs and try to get Amanda to join the ever-growing "Second Hand Panty" industry with them. She's the best and we hope you like her as much as we liked terrifying her! Next, we have on Steve Byrne who has created an incredible documentary called "Simply Amazing" all about The Amazing Jonathan. You can watch it on youtube right now on the All Things Comedy YouTube channel! Steve talks about how The Amazing Jonathan came into his life, his time making Sullivan and Son and we see if he finds certain videos "Horrible or Hilarious."

Starting point is 00:05:39 Yeah, sorry. Yeah, get your tickets there. Also, check out my two Netflix specials if you have not, Mother Inferior and the Degenerates. Christina P. Oh, I've been waiting for this for so long. There's a lot to get into. Man. We have a loaded show.
Starting point is 00:05:58 So excited. We have the man, the biggest Instagram celebrity that I know of coming up, plus a great comedian and director. Correct? All on this episode. All right. And award-winning content like this. Let's start the show.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Hey, y'all. I got four pennies. One, two, three, four. Beat him. No one can not catch it. Throw it up and catch all of them at one time. Ah! I did.
Starting point is 00:06:25 What's up? Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
Starting point is 00:00:00 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,720 Oh, shit. That was awesome. Hold on. What folder did you take that out of? The folder marked today's episode? Shit. Uh. That was awesome.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Sorry. I put the wrong one in there, man. I'm sorry. No. That sounded perfect to me. That's how long the intro should be. That was fantastic. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Uh. Why did you do that? It was an accident. Like, we had a couple short versions from last week and I guess this one just kind of bled over. I don't even get the regular version anymore. I don't think it's on the laptop that you have right now. You don't think I want the regular version even?
Starting point is 00:07:18 I know you do. I just fucked up, man. I'm sorry. I'm happy with it. So you don't even want an intro anymore? Well, I like the short one. We got the gist. Did you hear that?
Starting point is 00:07:28 That wasn't even... Let me hear it again. It doesn't even say the name of the show. I know. Who was Randy? I would have liked to who was Randy. Don't forget when it's mine. Well, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Yeah. That's three seconds? Well, you need the... Your mom is in the fucking stands. Yeah, that has nothing in it. That's your mom's... Yeah, we'll go back to that. Isn't that a little aggressively in the other direction?
Starting point is 00:07:46 No, I know. But it was nice that it was short. You want it to be a three-second intro from now on? No, I want the three things. I want... Don't bring anyone's mother into this. Your mom is in the fucking stands. Who is Randy?
Starting point is 00:07:59 Who is Randy? And then that's it. That's enough. That's it. I think. Not even the name of the show, not us. It's fine. They know what they're listening to.
Starting point is 00:08:07 They've downloaded it. They got it. By the way, there's a ridiculous petition going around. Have you seen this? Yeah, it's got well over 5,000 signatures for 10-minute plus intros. Yeah. You seen that? It's on change.org.
Starting point is 00:08:22 Yeah. Only 95,000 more signatures, and I think the president used to respond to it. Is that right? That's amazing. It's a change.org petition. I think Chase started it. How hilarious. He, yeah, put it up there.
Starting point is 00:08:38 It's basically to show support for me and to spit in Christina's face that the intro is way too short and that people want a longer intro. But that doesn't mean we have to respect the petition. I do. I respect what the listeners are... How many signatures do you require to make it a 10-minute intro? It's ridiculous. Well, I think if, okay, let me ask you this.
Starting point is 00:09:00 I mean, just be reasonable. What do you think if 25,000 people signed it that you'd be like, all right, we'll do one 10-minute intro? Yeah. That's an inadequate number, yeah. Okay. Well, now we know with the amount of people that download this, the average views, if you really want, you heard it, if you really want the 10-minute plus intro, if you sign
Starting point is 00:09:28 the document, if you sign the change.org petition and we get 25,000 signatures, you'll agree that we can do a 10-minute intro. Yeah, but here's the deal, man. Everybody thinks it's a ha-ha funny idea, 10-minute ha-ha hour-long intro song. So it's a three-hour intro. Nobody's going to listen to it though. They like the funny ha-ha, but the actual bit is not going to be funny. I agree, okay, I agree that audio only, it could make you maybe want to put a bullet
Starting point is 00:09:59 in your head. Yeah. But if you're watching, you could make it entertaining because you could do things visually as the intro plays for that one. Oh, I'm not going to listen. I'm not contractually obligated to sing it. You're not contractually obligated to do anything. I'm going to go take a shit or go pee or go eat a pop-top.
Starting point is 00:10:14 But I will stand here with the fans that I love. Oh, my God. And I will engage with them. Wait a minute. Whoa. You're pretending like you're the fan champ? I am 100%... Can I say something?
Starting point is 00:10:28 Can I say something? You don't want to do this. You don't want to do this. What are you talking about? They know. They know what? You're not the fan champ. No, I mean, I'm nicest to the fans.
Starting point is 00:10:42 No. Oh, my gosh. I bet you... I say hi to people. I take pictures. I'm nicer than you are. I take pictures. I smile.
Starting point is 00:10:52 We'll go... Okay. You should see what I did with the fans at the McDonald's activation. In the comments. Go ahead. Oh, Christ. I had right. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:11:02 Who's better than the fans? Please don't. You know, I don't want it. It's because... What the hell you asked for? You incite them, and you incite them, you get them all rallied up, fired up. Yeah. But the objective reality is I am nicer than you.
Starting point is 00:11:18 I have a better personality. I drink a lot more water than you. Uh-uh. Zero, zero, zero. That's your score for all those things. Well, can we please get into my curation of TikToks? Well, can we talk about what the fuck I saw at the beginning here with the pennies? What was that?
Starting point is 00:11:33 It's called Talent Tom. Is that TikTok? Yes. That guy's on TikTok? He's like, I have four pennies on my fingers. That TikTok's on TikTok. Josh Potter has a new phrase for our words. Sorry, that's our...
Starting point is 00:11:49 That's the official. Yeah. So we're going to go... So Josh Potter calls our worded TikToks. Yeah, it's pretty funny. Makes a lot of sense. I feel like it makes sense when I see somebody being on TikTok. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Well, if you would like to see... So the ones that I can't show on our show, I put on my gram at the Christina P. in my stories. You can see my curation. I'm also the water champ on TikTok. I don't provide content. I'm merely a humble curator of what's out there. So I've been sending these to the Dove and Josh, and I took you off of the text because
Starting point is 00:12:27 you said they upset you so much that you don't want to see them all the time. Why didn't know Bert's on TikTok? I didn't know... Well, hold on. We didn't... We got to play your TikTok intro. I heard you, bitches, was looking for me. Bitch, here I go.
Starting point is 00:12:46 Oh my God. Wow. That was TikTok for sure. It was super TikTok. You used the hour. Okay. So let's see what you got for me. Yeah, this is the biggest batch of TikToks yet.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Thank you. Well, I've been working pretty diligently. And we're going to shift from this into your corporate recap. Well, first things first, I mean, you know, the most important stuff is fans. Let me see what you got. Go ahead. Never date Ayandere. Ayandere is the Japanese line for basically a woman who loves you so much she's willing
Starting point is 00:13:26 to kill anybody who basically lays eyes on you, trying to get a hold of you. And I know some of you in the comments are going to say, huh, you never have someone like that. To be honest, I wouldn't want someone like that because she would kill my sister, my mother, my grandparents, anybody who even looked at me remotely. They'd be dead because she's so lovey-dovey that she goes insane and then wants to trap me in a fucking basement and help me in the kinky way. No, I mean, she will legitimately kill everything you care for just so you are the only thing
Starting point is 00:13:57 she has. Yeah, I don't I don't think she's I don't think he needs to worry about that. I know. He's he has that. There's a there's a specific way that a person who's immobile lays and makes videos. You see it a lot on TLC where where you you lay on your chest and side and you don't see where a neck used to be. And then this guy is like, you know what my real problem is?
Starting point is 00:14:27 Chicks who dig me too much. I know that's why I do you love it. Yeah, I think you're all right. Maybe maybe a little gastric bypass delusional if he thinks he has to worry about what the fuck is up with this guy. What is up with y'all? I got four pennies. One, two, three, four, thank you.
Starting point is 00:14:50 No one can not catch it don't and catch all of them at one time that's a real that is a real tick tock right there. That guy's fully tick tock fully tick tock. Now what do you know how excited he is to have caught four pennies when I know I don't But truth be told, I'm not sure I could either. Like I don't know if I could do that trick. It's pretty good. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:15:16 But you know what's neat about both of these gentlemen, they're they're shirtless and large yep breasted. Yeah, they're big guys in there. Yeah. They're. What is his knuckle and the knuckle tat say? It looks like B I C H or rich maybe R I C H could be rich. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:44 I don't know. Do you want to bet that he's not rich or no? Dude, you saw how many coins he was catching. That is poor. Yeah. So there's a there's a whole like there's a motel room you think? No. No.
Starting point is 00:15:59 No. The thing I found is that a lot of them don't live in mansions. These people making tech talk and it is it appeals to a specific them socioeconomic demographic. Oh, it appeals to someone like you. Yeah. That's what it feels. Yeah. I'm really weirdos.
Starting point is 00:16:15 I'm sitting there at night now you guys, you know, she had the balls to accuse me of being a psycho for for watching, you know, crime shows. Sure. Do you realize that I'm in bed and I hear and then I'm like, what the fuck? And it's her just watching tech talks watching like I got four panty and then you can catch it like that. I have to tell you this is but this is more interesting than any television show out there right now.
Starting point is 00:16:44 This is more interesting than anything going on. All right. Okay guys, we're going to do a guy acting like a cow. You like this one, you like this one, I knew you like it, I knew you like this one. Yeah. Thanks for watching the freaking dog. You know who that is? Yes.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Right. Yeah. And he knows the weather. The weather and he's from Saskatchewan and he's trying to build up his tech talk following him. I might sign up. Yeah. Well, because he says it on these tech talks, he's like, I'm also a YouTube star.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Wait, what? I'm doing his accent. I don't know if I would do that again. I tell the weather in Saskatchewan, what I'm doing his accent, he's got a Saskatchewan accent. Yeah. I'm Canadian. It didn't sound like that.
Starting point is 00:17:52 I'm doing the weather. Sounds like you're kind of tick-tocking it. You know, I'm just appreciating art. He's got a new book out. Huh? Frankie's got a new book out. He does? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:04 He wrote a book. What's it called? I don't know. The weather. It's called the weather. Tech talks. No, no, he does. He really has a new book out.
Starting point is 00:18:12 Well, Frankie, I've known who he is for a long time because he had a big YouTube following. Yeah. I think Twitter following and he'll, he likes extreme weather. Yeah. I think he'll comment when there's things happening. So I applaud Frankie. He really made me laugh with his being a cow. So yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:27 I like, so those are, those are certain lane of tech talks I've been into. Go ahead and play this one. Let me remember. There's a little funny story. My friend just texted me and told me my ex Perry is in jail. I wish I could find out for what, but I don't know. If anybody can find out for me, let me know. Thanks.
Starting point is 00:18:47 There's so much going on. Who's the fuck are you doing? Well, why can't she figure out what Perry did to get in jail? Like, do you think she has really small nostrils for how big her nose is? Doesn't it look like there's barely enough enough space for air? Yeah. But then it's not a small nose. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:11 And what's interesting is it, it sounds like she doesn't have teeth, but then I can see that there's teeth. But I want to know what's going on. Is that like an arty thing? Like where she, she was in the Coke for a long time. No, no, she's, maybe she got hit. I don't know. But I wonder why she's putting the call out to TikTok to figure out why Perry's in jail.
Starting point is 00:19:31 That's a part I understand. Like just text your friend who knows Perry or his mom or something. Like you think the general TikTok audience knows why Perry's in jail? I feel like there's a bad lane for us to get into. What's that? All of these? What are you talking about? It's just humans.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Okay. Now we're going to get out of that lane. Special lane. And now we're into a different world. Go ahead. Clown check. I see fucking pieces of, I have a good day, I'm by the J.E. and I'm back like a baby. So that's like the whole ICP.
Starting point is 00:20:05 No, I figured that part out. Grab a hold. I went down. Yeah. Yeah. This one's my favorite. And apparently on TikTok and he's, he does a lot of golf cosplay, so I really appreciate his work.
Starting point is 00:20:18 But somebody I think has insulted his lady is what's happening here. I just don't understand why people have to pick on me for all kinds of reasons. I wish I was on my girlfriend's live, literally just chilling, having a good time, watching her have fun and all that shit, when all of a sudden two trolls who are following me where I don't, who I don't follow literally are making fun of my OCs during my girlfriend's live, saying they're gonna beat up Kronos or saying that Kronos is like gill with a hat. What?
Starting point is 00:20:48 Is that like your problem? Cause that's mine. Okay. I make my own OCs. And if you have a problem with that, just block me for I give a shit. But no, no, they keep, they keep making fun of my girlfriend saying, are you single? No, I said that she's taken. And then I tell her and she's like, all right, I'm gonna break a pencil or some shit.
Starting point is 00:21:05 What? Like, why do trolls come at me? This is fucked up. I'm not this close to stop. I don't be done. Okay. Don't stop. Don't be done.
Starting point is 00:21:15 So now he's threatening his fans because this is the kind of stuff that he makes. And now he's saying like, I'm going to stop doing these if you guys don't stop rolling my girlfriend. This is one of the things he does. This is my favorite. Yeah. All right. Before I continue making videos, I just want to say something to my friend Ross and Prince.
Starting point is 00:21:33 I don't care what you guys have to say about my girlfriend. All right. Julia is fine the way she is. And if you have a problem with that, you can go away because we're not dealing with it right now. All right. I love her who she is. She makes me feel happy inside.
Starting point is 00:21:51 If you can't understand that, back the fuck off. I'm serious guys. Whatever you have to say or what to tell me is not my concern. I don't care what you have to say or what you're going to do, but I want you to do one thing. One thing only. You don't like her what she's doing with me or her. Lock us.
Starting point is 00:22:12 I don't care at this moment. Good bye. How embarrassing. How embarrassing was that one? How embarrassing. That's pretty bad. You should never respond to your haters. I just want to say good morning, Julia.
Starting point is 00:22:34 He's very intense this kid though. I like his work. Okay. Now this one's for you. This one I thought of just for you. Hey, you guys. June 2019. Yeah, I have lots of men friends, Roger, Steve, Daniel, Skip, Ken, but anyways, those are
Starting point is 00:22:56 my friends and the trees. Don't forget the trees. Yes. I am 48 years old. Jackie Land Anderson, J.L.A. This is tough. Anyways, I am not a virgin. That means I never, I mean, I have sex before.
Starting point is 00:23:14 So keep it real. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just saying. No, I'm not a hoe or a player. Just I haven't had a real, real boyfriend yet. So she's still looking.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Jackie W. Bye. Okay. I think I'm good now. Can we be done? Wait, can we do one more? Please. Oh, this one's good.
Starting point is 00:23:41 This one's good. This one I just sent. What am I looking at here? It's a pig. It's an enormous pig. There's a pig on a couch. It's laying on a couch. Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:49 Your daddy's home. It's Bert coming in. I know. It's so weird, right? Yeah. So for people listening, what's happening here? Yeah. For people listening, you just press pause.
Starting point is 00:24:17 A man, a shirtless man approached his 350 pound pig that's on the couch. And he's kind of like toying with him. And the pig is going. And that's what we just watched. I feel like I'm tick-tocked after watching all this. Oh, I like it. But you don't feel like it's fun? One more.
Starting point is 00:24:46 Just one more. Oh, my God. I've spent so much time putting these together for you. Last one. Okay. Fine. But it's... We gotta go, man.
Starting point is 00:24:56 I can't believe it. No, not this one. Another one. What is this? It's just an Indian woman crying on her wedding. It's not that good. And they're feeding her some from their hands? This is fucking horrifying.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Next one. That's what she said. This one's good. This is good? Yeah. Doesn't look good. Yeah. That's my favorite.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Okay. That was a woman pretending to be. I just want you guys to know something. When you're weighing in on who you like to engage with more. I can't help what I like. The heart wants what it wants. Those are all Christina's, I guess. Yeah, but I like this.
Starting point is 00:25:37 This is my entertainment. You like your murder shows. I like this. You like this. I like this. I like this. I like this. I like this.
Starting point is 00:25:45 I like this. I like this. I like this. I like this. I like my murder shows. I like this. You are completely retarded. Anyways, so I just want to bring up McDonald's.
Starting point is 00:25:59 This is unbelievable. Yeah. What a great segue for them and for us. For people that don't know, not only are they back. They can't play that ad. What? No, the Instagram ad. He can't play it on our show.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Oh. Not only are they back. Hmm. They came crawling back. Well, I mean, come on. They came back and they brought you to Clusterfest about a week ago. Right. Well, for the listeners of Ironware, McDonald's has returned as a sponsor.
Starting point is 00:26:40 They realized that. Many, many friends rise. That the, them being upset about the Uncle Terry video was not inclusive. Yeah. And they apologized and they support the LGBTQ plus. Of course they do. Community. And now they're back in the fold and Tom's been shopping for Ferraris.
Starting point is 00:27:00 And I got to go to Clusterfest as a brand ambassador. How cool is that? For their activation at Clusterfest. A comedy festival. And this is not a joke. People think it's a joke. I mean, we have some even, I think we have some videos and some images. Well, here's the deal.
Starting point is 00:27:15 I put out a call to all our fans there. I said, I'm at Clusterfest. Come meet me. I'm at the McDonald's activation. I'll give you a free tomato mozzarella chicken sandwich and free strip waffle McFlurry's from the Netherlands. And they did. And they showed up and I took pictures.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I made Instagram stories with people. What a great day. I was amazing. You got to eat McDonald's. Free McDonald's. Take photos. There I am. I'm coming to Canada.
Starting point is 00:27:40 I'm meeting, and here I am with fans of your mom's house. These were actual mommies who came. And we did the, what are those called? Boomerangs. Those fun Boomerangs. And I met these two fans. Christina is the personality champ. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Let's see. Here with Danielle. Danielle, who in your family loves strip waffle McFlurry's the most? My uncle Terry for sure. He loves the strip waffle. I thought so. Look at that. It's official.
Starting point is 00:28:06 The McDonald's logo is behind me. I'm wearing my McDonald's denim jacket. It's great. And I met this gentleman at the activation. Hey, my name is Nick. Keep it OS. Old school taking McDonald's. Woo-hoo.
Starting point is 00:28:19 It's great. And that's because I am a personality champ. Yeah, it's great. I love our fans. I like to engage with them. Look, I love to be in business with McDonald's. I don't see any videos of you with your fans. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:28:30 Go ahead. I love to be in business with McDonald's. I'm a big fan. I think they make, you know, obviously, it's quality, amazing food, and they're back. And I'm happy about it. Me too. It was so fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:46 And you can look on my Instagram for the ad that I did. The Christina P. You can see the McDonald's ad. Yeah. It's really great. It's pretty amazing. Back in business. So they, oh, a lot of people are asking if we have to paint the studio. McDonald's said we don't have to this time.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Okay. What else? Yeah, and there's no limits to the content anymore, which is nice. No more content limits. Yeah. Okay. That's a... Oh, and we're allowed to go back into McDonald's now.
Starting point is 00:29:14 That's really important. That's the biggest. I'm loving it. Yeah. So thank you. Thank you, McDonald's. Thank you, McDonald's. We're excited to be back in business with you.
Starting point is 00:29:24 Yeah, this is really good news. I know. The Stroopwaffle McFlurry is great. I like to get extra crumblies on top of mine. Oh, yeah. I didn't try that. They have all these foreign, right? Four foreign things.
Starting point is 00:29:34 Well, for a limited time, they're offering the worldwide favorites menu available. Four of the most popular items. Yeah. I like that you're still in ad mode. Yeah. Yeah. So it was very exciting, and I got to speak with the McDonald's executives and ask them questions about the McRib and all the stuff, and it was great.
Starting point is 00:29:58 It was really great. It was really fun. They're very nice people. So we were talking about earlier, what you said to me, that you think there's a limit to the number of sneezes. Yeah. People should get in public. Well, because I was on the plane, and you hear people sneezing, and one sneeze, okay,
Starting point is 00:30:16 two sneezes. God bless you, but a third, it's like, stop. Go outside, go away. I sneeze in twos. No, you sneeze in threes. In threes? Yeah. I thought it was twos.
Starting point is 00:30:28 I go, bless you. Bless you. And then I get angry. No, no. When I start just things, you go, bless you, bless you. Oh, that's right. I do pre-emptive twos. I do twos.
Starting point is 00:30:36 No, you're right twos. Yeah. But then don't you find the third to be just exorbitant? Like, what are you doing? Well, it's annoying, but it's involuntary. No, but. Sneezes, you don't go like, ah, I'm going to sneeze right now. It just happens.
Starting point is 00:30:47 You should go away if you have a problem. You have a sneezing problem. If you get a cough, please leave me alone. Yeah. Well, because Annie was saying, don't your friends have a two-sneeze policy? Yeah. Two sneezes and they're like, dude, shut up. You see?
Starting point is 00:31:00 You're done. You're done. But I mean, and if you keep sneezing, they're like, just get the fuck out of here. They're like, dude, can you go somewhere else? Like you're bothering me. See? I mean, like, I kind of. I agree.
Starting point is 00:31:11 Understand it. But I mean, I don't think someone can be serious about that. Have you ever been around one of my dad's sneezing fits? No. Dude, they're all the time, but like, so he's always had allergies and he will sit there and sneeze. No. Not exaggerating.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Sometimes eight to 10 times in a row. And I've seen him have as many as like 15, 16. Yeah. That's so annoying. And he also, like, I think Potter asked me, he's like, well, doesn't he think that something in the room is causing it? No, he does not. He sits in the same place that he's in and he's just like blows his nose and he's like,
Starting point is 00:31:48 huh, you see how, you know, his eyes are all watery and he's just like, oh, I'm like, dude, you sneezed. Right. But it's disruptive to the other people in the room. I know. Like it, it stops the conversation. It does. It's distracting.
Starting point is 00:32:03 What do you, what do you propose that they leave? It's the same if you have an annoying car, if you're going to, it's basically you're being annoying. Like you have two times. I get a cough like it's leaving the room. I agree. You know, you're blowing your nose too much. Like, you know, the person that's like, okay, no, that shit is like, but here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Some of those things are prolonged. Like that guy or that, you know, all the noises. Like I've been on planes with people who were like, I mean, you're doing this for two fucking hours, man. Yeah, the tics. That shit is, is, is ridiculous. But sneezing is involuntary and it's over relatively quickly, but it's still annoying and you should excuse yourself.
Starting point is 00:32:40 You should leave. You should leave. You know what? I had a driver who I did. I was like listening to the radio and I wasn't talking to him and I, he ever do that. People go. Oh, it's the worst. That bothers me.
Starting point is 00:32:53 Like, I sat next to a guy in a movie theater who was going, yeah, for, for a movie, the duration of a movie, just like sucking his sucking spit through his teeth. Yeah. But that's like, that's like, I want to leave the room. That guy should get fucking stabbed in front of everybody. Exactly. Because he wants your attention. They're doing it.
Starting point is 00:33:15 It's an attention getter. Like, look at me. But a sneezer is not asking for attention. Yeah, they are. Look at me, everybody. I'm sneezing more than once. You get too. That's not what's happening.
Starting point is 00:33:23 Yeah. You get too sneezes. It's involuntary. Yeah. But you can control. You can stop it. No. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:31 No. Blueban. Yeah. No. What do you know? How many times do you sneeze? Well, no one would want to sneeze like more than two or three times. Yeah, it's unpleasant.
Starting point is 00:33:39 Do your limbs go numb? Like after the third or fourth sneeze? No, your limbs don't go numb. Why would your limbs go numb? I don't know. Isn't that so? What's the body? No.
Starting point is 00:33:47 You need to see a cardiologist. No. Really? No. Your body doesn't get numb. Are you being serious? No, I'm being legit. Like my arms will start hurting if I sneeze four or five times in a room.
Starting point is 00:33:59 That doesn't happen to anyone. You've had heart attacks you don't know about. No. But also what she's saying is completely wrong in that nobody is deciding to do that. They're not deciding to, but then they have control over being in the room. Okay. I'm in the room, yes. Now, personally, if I'm with strangers and I'm having a sneezing fit, I would leave
Starting point is 00:34:23 the room not out of politeness, but because I'm kind of embarrassed. I'd be embarrassed. Yeah. See, you should be embarrassed if you're on a fit. If I'm having a fit. It's disgusting and everyone has to say, bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you, bless you. I have to belch after like a bunch of big sneezes.
Starting point is 00:34:40 That's so weird. It builds up air. Like I build up because I sneeze so forcefully. It's like air gets trapped here and then I have to belch. Do you ever have both at the same time where you burp and sneeze at the same time? Not really. That's not. Yeah, that's happened before.
Starting point is 00:34:55 That's happened to you before? It hurts a lot. That sounds like it hurts. It does, yeah. I like, I like sneezing. I'll tell you what feels really good to me. Oh God. He loves his body functions.
Starting point is 00:35:06 I do. I do. How do you love sneezing? I love sneezing. I hate it. I don't like body functions at all. I love that there's like a little buzz after you sneeze, you know? It's like a head buzz.
Starting point is 00:35:15 And I feel, I feel lightheaded. I feel like, I almost feel like I took like a good hit, a weed or something like, ooh. I feel it. I like it. And I like sneezing with reckless abandon, meaning no hands. That's fun. A free sneeze? Yeah, a free sneeze.
Starting point is 00:35:31 You go like, yeah. You see it like go everywhere. It feels so good. That is fun. We do sneeze tag for a while. We would sneeze on each other. Oh, sneezing on each other. That's a fun thing.
Starting point is 00:35:40 I mean, that's usually. Yeah, it's fun. I recommend couples only. Yeah. But like, I like being in the car. And I'm like, oh, I feel a sneeze coming. And if she's distracted, I'll go and sneeze on her. You can't really get away with that unless the person really loves you.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Yeah. I like the sneeze type. I've done it to my sisters too. But you can do it to somebody you're much bigger and stronger than. Yeah. Or someone who loves you a lot. So that's who you should preserve it for. Potter is disgusted.
Starting point is 00:36:11 With which part? I think the sneezing on people. Oh, yeah. It's gross. But it's fun because they can't do anything back to you. You know, right? You can't just, it's not like when you cough on someone, they'll just cough right back on you.
Starting point is 00:36:25 You need to have one in the chamber. Yeah. But Josh usually agrees. Josh, don't you agree that three sneezes is like, it's over the top. If I sneeze three times, I'm saying I'm sorry and I'm walking out of the fucking room. Thank you. Yeah. I agree.
Starting point is 00:36:41 Fix yourself. Man. See, Annie's friends are like, bro, you get two and then you're done. It's like, hey dude, let's go. Yeah. It's enough attention. Like you're asking for so much attention. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:54 I mean, I've gotten annoyed by somebody sneezing a lot. I have gotten actually really annoyed by my father sneezing. Yeah. It's annoying. Yeah. But he's also going on an extraordinary role. You know, he's doing 10 sneezes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:07 He's sick. He needs to get help. Yeah. And then I'm like, he's like, I can't help it. I can't do anything. I'm going to leave the room. I can't. I can't.
Starting point is 00:37:15 And there's cough limits too. I don't want to hear so many coughs. Really? Walk away. Oh my God. Anyways. God, that felt good. So interesting development in my life.
Starting point is 00:37:29 Yeah. First it started with towel drying myself off and then it evolved to a coffee machine in my bathroom. Yeah. From this trip to DC and stuff, and I like pop music now. People won't understand the implications of this. For the last 15 years, any pop song, meaning a popular, let's say, radio hit. Like mall music is what I call it.
Starting point is 00:37:56 She calls it, she's just like, oh, like just can't. So I, you know, you adapt kind of to what you're, you learn what your spouse, your partner's into. And you go like, oh, okay. Like she just doesn't like anything popular music wise. It's got to be like, ah, don't kill yourself. Like she likes that kind of. Don't kill yourself.
Starting point is 00:38:15 You mean kill yourself. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You like kill yourself. I like. The world is dark. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:23 Yeah. Punk new wave. I like the clash. I like Bauhaus. Why do we live here? She's like, that's a good song. I like it. I mean, if there's one thing I definitely don't see eye to eye on with this broad.
Starting point is 00:38:34 It's music. Yeah. Okay. So I accepted that. Like I like this kind of music, like things that make you dance, bob your head, feel good, happy. And then she's like, death, death, death, die, die, die, kill your parents, then yourself. I love it.
Starting point is 00:38:50 I love it. Yeah. So. I like it. Now she comes back from this one fucking trip and she's like, do you like Willow Smith? And I'm like, what? Well, okay. She's like, she's got this no sock and Taylor Swift can really put out some hit tunes too.
Starting point is 00:39:05 And I'm like, yeah. But can I, but do you know why? You did DMT on the strip? No. You know what happened is because I'm so out of tune, out of touch is like a middle age mom. Like I don't leave, I don't go to like clubs. I don't know anything cool.
Starting point is 00:39:18 So all I know is the internet. Yeah. And through Tik Tok, I've learned about music. Are you fucking seriously telling us back to Tik Tok? It's all, all roads lead to Tik Tok for me culturally. And there's this Willow song I like, it goes, and I'm here right now, right now, because everyone. You don't have to do that part.
Starting point is 00:39:38 Everybody's the echo. No. Just any other song. Singing. Yeah. Joy. And I like Willow Smith now. I like that one song.
Starting point is 00:39:46 And then I like Taylor Swift, mostly because, you know, our friend, Brendan Urie did a song with her called Me. Yeah. And I started watching it because Brendan's in it. And then I fell in love with T Swift and now I'm down the vortex and I started listening to her. I really don't know what's going on. I don't know either.
Starting point is 00:40:03 I don't know. I think it's part of becoming a middle-aged mom. Like this lameness. And then can we talk about like you're, you're like talking about a standup? Yeah. You want to talk about it or no? Yeah. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:40:14 You're like, oh yeah, man. I just, you know, she, this is the first time that she's ever, she goes 15 years. I just want people to have a good time at the shows. You know, I don't. I've never felt that way before. I was like, what? I've always been like, I want to start a fucking riot. I want to put a brick in it.
Starting point is 00:40:26 I want to get angry. I want to get fired up. You know what I think it is? I think it's because I've matured and I've been in therapy for 10 years and I'm not angry anymore inside. Isn't that weird? Yeah. I'm like happy inside.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Yeah. And I want to make other people happy. And I think, and I enjoy Taylor Swift now. Man. I don't have rage inside of me anymore. I don't hate my parents anymore. I think that's what it is. That's great.
Starting point is 00:40:51 I think that's great. You don't like Taylor Swift at all, though. You like the shake it off. I don't have any problem with Taylor Swift. That's a good song, right? Wait, I'm not not. I've never knocked Taylor Swift. Oh, OK.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Don't knock Taylor. Well, wait a minute. How does it come to that? I've never said I'm the one that likes pop music. All right. Just checking. Well, who's your favorite pop star? Let's talk about it.
Starting point is 00:41:11 I don't know. I mean, I like. Rihanna. I like Rihanna. Yeah. Yeah. I like Rihanna a lot. I do.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Who else? Let's look at my fucking. Let's talk cool jams. Here's what's going on with my. I think this is just what happens in middle age, too. Is like as a lady mom. Well, this is some throwback. I mean, I listened to Envogue.
Starting point is 00:41:32 I have them on today. Yeah. But you like you have like the musical taste of a 12 year old girl. OK. Because Envogue sings never going to get it. Never going to get it. Never going to get it. Yes.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Now I like I have talking heads on here. No, well, that's from me. But that's not from you. That's not from you. Moded.
Starting point is 00:41:54 It is not from you. You listen to talking heads before me. Yes. Oh, bullshit. Yes. What was your favorite song? The person who really got me in the talking heads was not you. It was Dan Gabriel.
Starting point is 00:42:04 It was Dan Gabriel. Who the fuck is Dan Gabriel? He's a comedian. Well, I love talking. Here's some biggie Smalls. Let's see. Here's some part of him. I mean, most of the stuff is.
Starting point is 00:42:15 I mean, look, I got some Kendrick Lamar here. I've heard of that. I've heard of that guy. Because they dated a Kardashian on Instagram. I know that, right? Was it Kendrick Lamar with a Kardashian? Different black guy. Somebody Lamar.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Lamar. Lamar Odom. Yeah. Lamar. He's a fucking retired basketball player. And he's with a Kardashian. Was. Was.
Starting point is 00:42:43 That's why Lamar was in my head. This makes you seem a little out of touch. Yeah, I'm told. I just admitted it. I raised small children. All my free time is spent with tiny children. All right. What about Waka Flaka?
Starting point is 00:42:54 Waka Flaka. Waka Flaka. We've had him on the show. We have not had Waka Flaka. Not as a guess. We played Waka Flaka in the past. I thought you were like, no, he was right there. Wait, was that Danny Brown?
Starting point is 00:43:04 No, that was Danny Brown. No, Waka Flaka. We've played his clips. Yeah. Mm-hmm. All right. Let's see. From you right now.
Starting point is 00:43:13 ASAP Rocky. Right now. You know, under that. Thundercat. You don't know this. Del the Funky Hummus. No. Eric Abadou.
Starting point is 00:43:21 Of course. I want a rim job. Hey, diggy diggy. Come on. That's not how it goes. Yeah. Let's see. Wiz Khalifa here.
Starting point is 00:43:31 Soul to soul. That's old school. I don't know that shit. Drake. Two Chainz. I know Drake. I don't know who Two Chainz is. What's Two Chainz?
Starting point is 00:43:40 That sounds terrible. Let me see. That sounds like mall music for sure. Well, that's what you're going to get into. Forever 21. Here's my throwback digital underground. I know that. I'm going to run down by the Humpty Dance.
Starting point is 00:43:50 I got some free wood Mac here. You like that? Okay. Some Daft Punk. Okay. That's kind of... Oh, how about this Camilla Cabello? You'd like her.
Starting point is 00:43:58 I don't know. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You play that for me. I like that. That's pop. That's like pop music. That's good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:06 She's good. She's talented. All right. Tribe called Quest. Everybody knows that. Heller. Heller. Here's some Danny Brown.
Starting point is 00:44:14 Some SWB. He says it's cool. Yeah. All right. So I'll start playing some more of my pop music for you and then you can decide. I was very surprised. I feel like this is a new... You don't understand how just almost traumatizing this is to hear that you're like, oh, I like
Starting point is 00:44:31 fucking this stuff now. I know. I don't even get it. It's like who is this woman that I've married? I know. It's a big change. I feel like I've changed in my 40s. I'm becoming a nicer, kinder, gentler person.
Starting point is 00:44:45 I think it's a good thing. Well, speaking of that, I tweeted out the other day, if you can pull that up, that I think it's ridiculous that comedy clubs haven't raised what they pay the emcee and the features across the country. It's been the same rate for over 20 years. I know. Well, actually, you wrote the emcee makes a hundred. I think they get less.
Starting point is 00:45:07 I think it's 50. No, I said if the clubs paid the emcee only. Oh, I'll say in the middle. Yeah. Which is reasonable and easy. Oh, right. That it would change their lives. And for people who...
Starting point is 00:45:16 I know. A lot of people weighed in, people who obviously have no fucking idea what they're talking about, which is my favorite. When they're like telling me, I'm like, dude, you don't understand what you're talking about. These are not people making $50 and $100 an hour. Oh, no. This is something that they worked on for a long time. And keep this in mind.
Starting point is 00:45:39 So the way that... What I'm talking about is not the comedy store or the comedy seller. It's the clubs that you go to when a comic goes somewhere for a weekend. Typically, it's a three-person show. The emcee is... Or the host, the middle act's called the feature, and then the main act is the headliner in across the nation for over 20 years. That rate...
Starting point is 00:46:02 More. Didn't this rate start in the 80s? Well, no. In the 80s, they got paid more. Oh, my God. But for over 20 years, they've been paying the opening act $50 to host the show and the middle act $100. And of course, there's a huge sliding scale for the headliners.
Starting point is 00:46:20 So let's just say that if you are a new headliner, you're not selling tickets, so you don't make as much money, but you get a living wage. If you're a big headliner, obviously you have a lot of draw. You get... Lamborghini money. Yeah, the part of the door. So what I'm talking about is the emcee in the middle are developing comics. They're people who are going to be headliners.
Starting point is 00:46:47 And of course, yeah, they shouldn't make headlining money. But by not paying them even a reasonable wage, you cannot expect them to, A, make a living to develop because they're going to have to get like two and three other jobs. And you can make the argument, well, that's what they should do. Well, I guess, okay, that's what they should do. But to be fair, everybody else at those clubs is making more money. You understand what I'm saying? From 20 years ago, the Booker, the club manager, the box office people, the servers, the bartender,
Starting point is 00:47:21 the cleaning crew, they all make more money than they did 20 plus years ago at that comedy club. The only people not making more money are the people on the microphone performing, which is why the place is open. So it's like it's it's time that those clubs just step up and pay them a little bit more. And by doing so, one or two of those or a few of those comics will be able to maybe not have to get that other job and be better at comedy, which the comedy club benefits from. You end up raising the level of talent and the level of talent means there's more competition
Starting point is 00:48:02 for great comics and all of a sudden you have more great headliners that can sell more tickets. It benefits the entire business. So it's just something that I've always I felt like that for a long time. I mean, you know, when I am seed shows at these clubs, I was making $50 an hour and fucking 15 years later, the same people are making the same rate. It's like, come on, well, it's crippling to because you have to go into such severe debt just to become a headliner, which you and I did. We, you know, you put these flights on your credit cards to be a feature act.
Starting point is 00:48:35 And then well, that's here's the thing that like ostracized like more to that point is like people were like we're hitting me up. Why don't you pay people more? I'm like, wait a minute, we're not talking about me. I pay people extraordinarily well that open for me. Correct. I'm talking about you're working that week at a club. Yeah. And the club pays those. Yeah, the club pays them.
Starting point is 00:48:56 And so it's it's not about like whether I mean, yeah, people in my position can take care of who opens for them. I'm saying like, dude, you realize too that like while you're talking about, you know, it's been 20 years, other things have changed. And like rent is way more flights. They don't pay for middles to fly. So if you take the middle easy at the fucking Dayton funny bone, you get $100 a show. So you might have five or six shows.
Starting point is 00:49:25 That's five or six hundred dollars. If you're flying from Austin or Phoenix or LA, that's going to be a at best fucking four hundred dollar round trip flight. So you'll make two hundred dollars. Literally, that's what you make for the weekend. You make that much. And then, oh, and then you have to eat while you're there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:47 And you're lucky if they put you up. Sometimes they don't even want to put you up or they'll put you in a shady condo. And a lot of people are like, how come there's not a lot of female headliners? And well, most of the women are not as great, not crazy enough to do what I did and go into debt. And also it's dangerous. Like they'll put you in condos that you don't know how many people have had access to before you could have copies of keys where the doors don't lock properly.
Starting point is 00:50:13 I've stayed in condos where like sliding doors are fucking wide open. I've stayed in condos where I was sketched out. Of course. I've stayed in condos where I put shit in front of the door. So have I, yeah. I've barricaded the door. Or motels. They'll put you at the club will be cheap and put you in a dirty motel where
Starting point is 00:50:28 like your door faces out to the parking lot. And, you know, you go through all these hoops for like 10 years just to get where we are. And yeah, and at least you can do is fucking throw him some scratch. I don't think I'm, you know, dangerous. Suggesting something like socialist and totally crazy to do. It's like pay the people at this point. It's it's it is reasonable to ask for this raise. The other thing like the last point I'll make about it is at the trend.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Like comedy is so hot right now that the current trend for new clubs is bigger. Though it's it's it's more seats, it's expansion. New clubs opening all over the country are four and five and six hundred seats. That's essentially a small theater. And when they even if they if they have an act who doesn't sell, if you're able to give away five hundred seats and, you know, that many people come and they have to do the two drink minimum. You're talking about per show, even on free tickets.
Starting point is 00:51:27 That club is now generating an extra an extra four or five thousand dollars in revenue per show than they would if they had a two hundred and eighty three hundred seat club. So over the course of a five or six show weekend, you're talking about an extra twenty five thousand plus in revenue. And they're like, you get fifty dollars a show. It's like it is it is at this point. I mean, I think it's gross.
Starting point is 00:51:53 And I'm not like saying it to like shit on clubs. Clubs are the foundation of stand up. I love clubs. I've worked clubs my entire career, but I think at this point it's like you got a certain point go like it's the right thing to do. You know, yeah, it is the right thing to do. And I hope they understand that this is just it's totally elementary. It is. But maybe that's what separates normal people from comedians
Starting point is 00:52:18 is your willingness to suffer. Yeah. For ten years being broke and being treated like shit. It's pretty inspiring. All right. What do we got coming up here? We have our guests. Yeah, we got to do this, though. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:37 All right, I think it is time to do that. And also we'll take a break. We'll be back with our guests. Hope you enjoy the rest of this show. Your mom's house will be right back. Our next guest is a superstar. She has a just a meager 25 million followers on Instagram. She has a fitness fashion line and she has a brand new podcast out called Oh,
Starting point is 00:53:10 Honey, you can get it on her YouTube channel. You can get it wherever you get podcasts, Spotify, iTunes. It is Amanda Cerny. Thank you for coming on an intro. Thank you. I mean, I have to say you might be the first lady that's ever been in the studio. And what do you mean? I mean that we've had female women in here.
Starting point is 00:53:32 OK, but you know, it's like this is the first time you're allowing women on your phone. No, no, no, no. It's usually female comics who talk about squirting piss. I got it, I got it, I got it. Like we had there's some real stocks. No, we had what was her name? Who created you? Oh, yeah, no, Sarah Gamble.
Starting point is 00:53:53 She was a lady and that. But really, like you're like a beautiful fit young lady who probably doesn't talk about pooping a lot or belt. She don't belch or fart a lot. Well, no, I get gassy. I I plant based. Oh, good. Well, make sure I'll try to brew it up for you.
Starting point is 00:54:12 What makes you gassy? I think all the raw vegetables. Could you are you vegan? Yeah. Wow. Yeah, I like to say plant based, though, because it's so like intense. I bet you're so regular, right? I have like is it 8 a.m. Just on the dot.
Starting point is 00:54:24 You're just like, it's time to be serious, though. Doesn't the vegan does sound so cookie cutter and boring right now? Oh, guys, we love talking about the thing is, though, I have my cousin was vegan and she's like, I take Tyrannosaurus size dumps all day every day. You're like your bowel movements are just so much better on a plant based diet. So, of course, has to be. Yeah. Some days I'll be like, man, it feels like I'm shit in glass. Oh, yeah, I haven't had a vegetable in three days.
Starting point is 00:54:55 That's why I know I need to see if you don't want to shit glass. Eat your veggies. Maybe that's a new shirt. I think so. So this is just to give people like some background on this. I I went to high school with a lovely, lovely lady who is your manager. Right. And so this conversation started like a few months ago.
Starting point is 00:55:19 And, you know, she told me you were going to be doing a podcast. We're talking about all kinds of stuff. And she's she's absolutely wonderful. Lacey Abbott. Yeah. Is that OK to say her name? Oh, yeah, for sure. Lacey. She lives at one to one. And so we were talking about that.
Starting point is 00:55:33 And, you know, I was learning about you. And I mean, I don't want to just fixate on the number, but it is an astonishing thing to build what you've built. I mean, five million. Can you wait a minute? How much is Paris Hilton have? I think you might have more than Paris. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Dude, you have more than like. No, you do. I'm a fan of the gram. I am on the fucking gram. Like, you have more followers than you ever look at Paris. Give more than like the New England Patriots. You have more than Tom Brady. Bro, Paris Hilton only has ten point eight million. But I mean, Amanda has twenty five million.
Starting point is 00:56:08 Do you ever stop like before we get how you get there? Do you ever stop and go like, holy shit, this number of people? I mean, it seems like. Yeah, I mean, overwhelming almost. It was overwhelming for me when it was at one million. Yeah. And I was like, that's a lot of people. Those are like humans.
Starting point is 00:56:24 Like that's real people. It's not just like a number that's like. How long did it take you to get to one million? It took me a year. I was a year. Yeah, I was on Vine. And that was my first million. It wasn't on Instagram first.
Starting point is 00:56:38 It was on Vine. Because you still do your content. I mean, you do short videos and like some of them are on the IG TV. Yeah, of it now. But you've always done like, you know, short, funny content. Yeah, like sketches, sketches and stuff. And then so take me back to how. So you start on Vine before that.
Starting point is 00:56:57 Do you have like, is it? I got a backstory. Yeah. Yeah. I want to know. Well, I was at college at Florida State and well, yeah. You too. I'm a big Seminole fan.
Starting point is 00:57:07 Oh, OK. Simon Holzer's baby. She always rubs me the wrong way with that. But yes, I'm a big or the lifelong fan. Oh, I love that. Well, I went to Florida State and then when I was at college, like I had, like I was a bartender, I had like three jobs to pay. It's expensive. Sure.
Starting point is 00:57:27 And then I would go to the gym and then I'd also have a lot of free time. And then at the same time, one of my friends from my hometown emailed me and or not emailed me, messaged me and was like, hey, you should submit to Playboy and become a playmate centerfold. And I was like, I'm not doing that. I'm going to school like doing well in school, going to be in the CIA. Really? Like Jodie Foster and Silence of the Lambs.
Starting point is 00:57:52 That was the FBI. That was the FBI, your honor. What's same thing? That is not the same thing. I am similar. It's similar. One is domestic ones in her name. Oh, well, you knew that.
Starting point is 00:58:03 Guys, I've read. I used to read. So you wanted to be in the CIA. Yeah. Whoa. But my mom, maybe you still are. I mean, no, I'm not. But when I was. Your face was like, what?
Starting point is 00:58:19 I was waiting. I was like, what if she's a spy? Yeah, she could be. And I actually worked for the IRS. So I don't want to. I pay my taxes. We do a lot. So OK.
Starting point is 00:58:30 So your friend tells you this. You're like, I'm not doing that. Yeah, I'm going to be weird. But you did you want to be in Playboy? Like, was that something? Never even on my radar of things. But then I knew what it was because the girls next door was on at the time. Remember that show with Kendra.
Starting point is 00:58:46 Yeah, she was she was so ghetto. Yeah, she was like, I'm I'm getting drunk. And you're like, this chick's a playmate. This chick has to blow half with the other two ones. Oh, my God, what a job. They were girlfriends of half. They were right, right, right. Like the playmates.
Starting point is 00:59:01 So oh, they weren't playmates. Kendra wasn't a playmate. I don't know if she ever became one, but she wasn't on the show. They were all just girlfriends. Wow. Imagine having to go down on that. You know, apparently he butt butt fucked a lot of them.
Starting point is 00:59:16 I heard about you talk to him about I interviewed him before I died. Now, I heard that from a former girlfriend of his, that he used to butt sex them so that he wouldn't get anybody pregnant. That's the word on the street. Yeah, I'm surprised that, like, because you can't put it in soft. I'm surprised that he could get it ready for anal. The Viagra, I mean, the guy was like, it's fucking like it's like 87.
Starting point is 00:59:42 Oh, he's so on those stupid silk pajamas. Yeah, he's like, come down here and put it in your butt. No, you know what he used to do is have the pajama parties and they will watch a movie in Heff's dirty old room. And then he would butt sex and he would want the other two girls to make up. I've heard it on an interview with a former playmate on Stern. Okay.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Yeah. And you know that get all my information from from that show. I think there's a lot of tell all books and stuff too. So I haven't read them. I'm saying that he's probably not opposed to Mal's or vagina's either. That's true. He might be into that. It's not like half was like, no, no blowies for me.
Starting point is 01:00:15 Yeah, I heard the mansion was run down to. Yeah, I've heard that too. Yeah. Yeah, it's a lot of continuance. You guys heard a lot of things. I've heard a lot of things. It's all important stuff that I wish I were. Yeah, that's very...
Starting point is 01:00:25 You need to TikTok. I know a lot about that too. Yeah. I got a TikTok. You have a TikTok? We'll go through some TikToks. Well, I can't start following her because then my whole algorithm will be messed up
Starting point is 01:00:35 because she's like attractive and normal. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I only feel a really special algorithm going to TikTok. Oh, really? No. Yeah, that's good. I want to see it. It's not like your feet.
Starting point is 01:00:44 I promise. It is not. Okay. But sorry. So we got an interesting place. So your friend, all we know is that your friend was like, Playboy submit. You should be in Playboy because you're super cute.
Starting point is 01:00:55 I'm going to completely contrast everything you guys are saying about having Playboy. Uh-oh. But I was like, oh, it's cool. It's like, you know, he's done a lot of amazing things for Gay rights. Of course. And like, so I was like, oh, this is an awesome magazine.
Starting point is 01:01:11 I'm going to the gym two times a day. I'm like, I'm confident. This feels cool. All right, I'll send bikini photos. Super pretty. Why not? You should exploit your looks and make your money. And that fuck, yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:23 Sell your panties online. Do whatever you have to do. Are you not doing that yet? And selling my panties? No, but if you want to run that business for me. What? Dude. Yeah, we have an agent together.
Starting point is 01:01:33 I got to tell you, we have been doing a lot of research lately. And guess what? You're leaving a lot of money on the table. Well, have you seen Orange is the New Black? Well, yeah. I didn't watch the last season. Oh, well, I think it was, I think, I think it was in,
Starting point is 01:01:48 I don't know what season it was in. I know what you're talking about. Yeah, they did have a business. They had a whole business of selling the panties of the inmates. Yeah. It's brilliant. And if you plug that to your followers. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:58 Do you have any idea what's going to happen? I could get all the people that have a following, all the celebrities, and whatever you want to call them, sell the panties, even your panties. Well, I'm only at $254,000. I'm not. That's $254,000 people that will pay for your panties. The way you say that, you're right.
Starting point is 01:02:14 Yeah. You make a lot of sense. Yeah. Here's, OK. Here's the game plan. We'll go back to your story in a moment. Yeah. Here's what you do.
Starting point is 01:02:20 Because it's so exciting. You start. Everywhere you go, you just carry ziplock bags. OK, so you go to the gym. She's twice a day at the gym. Yeah, two times. As soon as you're done. OK, you do morning workout.
Starting point is 01:02:31 Panties go, zip lock bags, zip it. You write down morning workout. 8 AM. That goes, and then evening workout. And then you're like, ugh, I ate a big salad, farty day. You write that off, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:43 And then, you know how you can bank episodes? You bank. Just like panties. A whole bunch of them. Wow. You go up, and then they're like, I mean, you say your price. She's really listening to you. Of course.
Starting point is 01:02:54 There's poor women. Poor women. Forget everything I'm doing. Oh, wait. Do you have too much money, or do you want more? So you fucking. I would love a house in Malibu. Posting these, you're like, hey.
Starting point is 01:03:04 And then it's right there. Just like it's another post. Someone's, oh, what's this? Oh, it's $1,000 panties. What do you spend on them? 20 bucks? Fucking great return. Is that like, see, I like that, but I feel like we can do more.
Starting point is 01:03:18 Go for it. Go ahead. So we have to. Because I can't run this on my own. No, no, of course. I need help. Yeah. And you guys, this is like a business meeting now.
Starting point is 01:03:26 Yeah. But I feel like what we could do is because we have access to so many different celebrities. They have followings too that want their panties. And then expand this. This is what I'm talking about. Make it a brand name for the whole panty line. That's right.
Starting point is 01:03:40 And then all that. Yeah. And then you could sell unused panties for the people that can't afford the worn panties. That's right. What do we call it? Insta panties? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:49 What's the app? Do we create a whole new app? We could. Is this like. See, there's levels to this. We just need to trade market. Cameo for panties? That's right.
Starting point is 01:03:57 It's like women empowerment. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Fuck the patriarchy. Sell them your panties. Why not? Sell these dumb guys your panties.
Starting point is 01:04:05 Right? If a guy's like, hey, I heard you farted a lot today. She's like, I did. Here's $1,000. Are you going to tell me you're like, no, I don't want this guy to have my fucking panties for a grand? Yeah, it saves you all that wash. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Yeah. Anyways, I just feel like. I agree. One in one makes three. That's what my old manager used to say. Yeah. And I never understood what she meant. And do you know?
Starting point is 01:04:30 And I fired her. But now I kind of know. OK. She's really bad at math. She was terrible. OK, so. Look, I just want us to not abandon this conversation. I don't.
Starting point is 01:04:40 We'll table it as they say. We'll put a pin in it as they say. Well, honestly, I've told this story a lot too. So it's not like completely, you know. What? Which story? Her origin story. In my origin.
Starting point is 01:04:52 Oh, I'm sorry. No, but no, it's not. Don't be sorry. You haven't heard it. No, no, no. So obviously I didn't tell it enough. I'm going to tell it right now. Tell it now.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Yeah. So I was at college and I sent him bikini photos. And then they emailed me back the next day. And I was like, all right. Like, that's cool. And were they like, we want Bush? And they were like, we want to fly you out for a test shoot. Oh, amazing.
Starting point is 01:05:13 Yeah. And I was like a free trip to California. Awesome. And then they flew me out in October 2010 for just to go out to the mansion for a week, do my test shoot. I went to Paris's birthday party or Halloween party, one of the two I don't remember. How was it?
Starting point is 01:05:32 Was it fun or was it overrated? It was fun because I was my first time seeing celebrities. 01:05:37,400 --> 01:05:41,720 And I saw a Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite. Love that guy. Yeah. And that was like my. That was your jam?
Starting point is 01:05:44 Yeah. I was so excited. And then so yeah, I went to a Hollywood party. And you met Heff? Oh, yeah. I met Heff, of course. So wait, on that trip, are you because like, you're a college girl coming out to LA?
Starting point is 01:05:57 I mean, are you like, holy shit? Do you feel like this is probably like just like a one off thing or are you like, I want to get in on this? You know what I mean? Well, I was kind of like whatever about it. Like I came out. I was like, this is a really cool thing. Like I land, they had a limo for me to bring me to the mansion.
Starting point is 01:06:12 I was like, this is awesome. Definite like experience and check off the bucket list for sure. But it wasn't everything to me. Like I went out there. I was like, all right, this is cool. And then I was like, if it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, then I have this. And when you're out, do you do the test shoot as well?
Starting point is 01:06:31 Yeah. And what's that like? Is it his daughter that runs it or something? She did. When I was there, everything changed so much since like, after my year, I feel like that's when things really started changing with them trying to be more modern and like, revamp the whole company.
Starting point is 01:06:49 So everything kind of changed. So but it's your first test shoot, which means you're, are you fully nude for, you ever done anything like that before? Okay. So you were nervous. How intimidating is that? Yeah, that's got to be terrifying.
Starting point is 01:07:01 I was like a deer in headlights because it was a fully professional set that they had. They had the same photographer that they've had for 50 years shooting all the centerfolds. Well, that's kind of nice. So you can trust that this person's going to make you look really good. Exactly. That's their whole job is to make you look hot.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Is there just deep breath moment though, right? Like, you know what I mean? Like, I imagine that there's something like there's a robe. And then it's like, all right, we're ready. And you have to go like, oh my God. Yeah, yeah. And I, and I looked that way too. And they're like, all right, the makeup artist walked up to me.
Starting point is 01:07:34 She's like, Amanda, I could tell you're like really nervous. Yeah, by the way, I'm nervous right now here. She's like, by the way, everybody, because I was 19 at the time too. Oh my God, your baby. Yeah. And then everybody there, like there was a lighting guy. There was just like so many people in the room.
Starting point is 01:07:52 But all them, again, super professional. And she was like, just know the lighting guy's focusing on the lighting because he doesn't want to get fired. He's doing his job and he's getting the photo. And then the photographer is working on getting the perfect shot. It's like art to him. Like it's just, and she was explaining that to me. She goes, I'm looking at your makeup.
Starting point is 01:08:09 Like everything is just so like focused on just doing your job. That's a good speech that she gave. Nobody is like, is that chick a 10? She's not fucking hot. They're just so excited to see you. To be great. Yeah, of course. Because at the end of the day, they take those pictures that they shot
Starting point is 01:08:25 and send them to Heff. And then Heff looks at them that day and then tells them. And he's like, I want to put it in her butt. Bring her. Exactly that. Provider to the pajama party. So wait, is that what happened next? No.
Starting point is 01:08:38 Oh my gosh. No, ew. No, ew is reality. I'm waiting to do that. Wait, is there no moment like when you're, okay. So the photos go over, I assume that in the next day or so you fly back or do you stay out here? Well, the next like in two days was their Halloween party at the mansion.
Starting point is 01:08:56 So you got to go there at this point. Wait, but that's the big deal. Like the enchanted forest or whatever. And then you dress up and everybody's dressed in lingerie. It's a big deal. Yeah, the Halloween. Well, that's the, I think, the mid-summer. When you go to the party, now Heff knows who you are.
Starting point is 01:09:14 Like he's like, this is the, I don't know. But it's like, there was like three other girls there that were test shooting to become a playmate, centerfold too. So all of us were testing at the same time. So it's like I made friends with these two other girls. Did you really just fucking bitch like inside? You were like, that's the thing though. When I got to the mansion, I thought everybody would be super catty.
Starting point is 01:09:33 And cause I didn't know any of the girls. I thought it'd be like competitive. And I went in. Sorry, guys. Oh, come on. The phones, I was on my way in the middle of the- No, I got my nanny, my kids. You've been doing this for 10 years.
Starting point is 01:09:45 I got two children. Okay, that's a good excuse. Yeah. Yeah. Are they okay? Yeah, this is just Amazon. Huge priority, guys. I got like five packages a day.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Same day delivery. Hell yeah. Okay. So you're at the house. Half walks by, whispers in your ear and put into your butt. No, it never happened. Does he say anything lude to you at all? Yeah, do you meet him?
Starting point is 01:10:09 Do you meet him? No grope? No, like you're like, hey, get your finger out of here. Wait, wait, but you do meet him, right? Yeah, I met, so I met him when I first landed and I put my bags in the guest house. That's nice. And then I went up to the house and they had the dining room area. And Heff is usually always in his room.
Starting point is 01:10:27 So I went up to the bedroom. He's always in his room. No, okay, I didn't do that. But like, because he's older, he was like 79 at the time. But when I met him, he was 79. Yeah, he was still like completely co- In my pajamas, and he's like, you want to see some old bags? No way.
Starting point is 01:10:48 How bad do you want it, sweetie? You guys, that's not what happened. But he likes blondes. I hear that the blondes get to be the girlfriend. This is true. So he was like, hey, pig, what are you doing in my house? No! He like tolerates burnets.
Starting point is 01:11:04 He just, just to be all inclusive. What's that brown-haired dog doing in my guest house? And they're like, Heff. That plant eater. So he was nice to you. Wait, wait, one more question before we move on. Now, I imagine, because women are weight fluctuates, depending on your hormones, and like,
Starting point is 01:11:22 did you brown a lot that morning? Because you're like, my stomach has to look flat. Like, you know when you shit a lot, and then your stomach looks way flatter? Like, did you think of stupid shit like that? Not really. Because your stomach's probably naturally flat. Sorry, I've never had that in my life.
Starting point is 01:11:38 I was like, I got a shit more today. No, I see what you're saying. I didn't eat a ton of food the night before. Right. Because I didn't want to wake up with like a full belly. Like a lasagna. Right, that's what I'm saying. So you are aware of like-
Starting point is 01:11:51 Because I get like a pregnant looking belly if I eat a lot of plants and the gas and- Yeah, sure. Sodium, I don't know. See, I'm- Anything can happen. So you did eat light the night before and you, yeah, fly. Okay, hold on.
Starting point is 01:12:03 Are you getting the diet tips for everybody? Yeah, because I'm like, because I, every time I see like a, like a pretty girl on a bikini pic, like you're on your Instagram, I'm always like, does she, because my stomach poofs out like if I eat like a grape, but I've also had two children.
Starting point is 01:12:16 So it's way looser and fatter down there. But I'm like, do they think of that stuff? Like, oh, I'm going to be taking photographs. I should not eat this morning or something and keep it looking flatter. You definitely do because you're, you have, you're naked. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:30 So it's like you have nothing. I wonder how I would do. I think, you know, I think you should take the robe off. You know what you should do is demand that you want to be in Playboy as an inclusive thing. Playgirl. No, you're a trans woman.
Starting point is 01:12:45 Oh my God. And now you want to be in Playboy. But I'd have to friends. So it's worth it for the bit. Just do it. For the joke. Just for the joke. For the stand up.
Starting point is 01:12:56 Yeah. Sorry. Okay. So you won't get any negative feedback for that at all. And then Heff is like, who's this dog? I wonder, I bet you if I- Heff isn't here anymore, guys. That's right.
Starting point is 01:13:06 He's done it. Yeah. If I did a photo shoot, I bet that makeup bars would come up to me and be like, just, you know, everybody's disgusted right now. Like the lighting guy, the photographer. Her name's Sarah,
Starting point is 01:13:15 and she probably would come up to say this to you. She'd be like, this is gross, and nobody wants to do it anymore. You know, but full circle. Again, I did my guest shoot, my campaign with guests, like a year ago. And Sarah, that was my playmate centerfold, like makeup artist.
Starting point is 01:13:32 She was my artist, makeup artist for my guest shoot too. Oh, that's nice. I was like, this is crazy. Yeah. Wait, so you've got the centerfold. So hold on. So you're at the party and Heff's like,
Starting point is 01:13:40 I don't normally like brunettes. But fine. Yeah. You're a real hog. Yeah. But I'll take you. Because some men like that. And then, so yeah, they approved me.
Starting point is 01:13:51 Did you, did you meet a lot of celebs? Was like, yeah, it was cool. You got to get bombed on at a fucking playboy thing, right? Yeah, but it was like, it was like a cooler party then than it became. Because it was like people. Wasn't social media blowing up? No.
Starting point is 01:14:09 No. I didn't even have like an Instagram. Nobody was like taking pictures the whole time. Yeah. That's going to be the worst part of something. I think the biggest following I got from my playmate centerfold was like 25,000 followers, which is a lot of people.
Starting point is 01:14:21 Yeah, but you're like, this is a bit moderate. Yeah. Yeah, that's a part. So wait, so let's fast forward some. So when you get that, it comes out. And then do you feel like, okay, now I want to get into entertainment, influencing or whatever?
Starting point is 01:14:35 Or are you like, that's just a one off thing. I'm going to do something else. Well, I was like, I'm not working for the government anymore, for sure. So. Is that right? Do you think even now? I guess now, yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:48 It's hard. I mean, yeah, I don't know. You think this. Yeah. I mean, back in the day, this is, yeah, you know, you're right back then. I think now people are like. Hollywood barely accepted you.
Starting point is 01:14:57 Yeah. You didn't. So if the Hollywood won't know about the government. But yeah. So from that, I was like, all right, I'm not doing this anymore. I still had like a semester left at Florida State. But I'm like, all right, not using this degree.
Starting point is 01:15:11 Yeah. So I just moved down to Miami. And I was like, all right, I'm going to. Wait, did you graduate or no, you left? No, I had my AA degree. And then like so many credits away from getting my bachelors. But then I just like went down to Miami. I was like, all right, I'm just going to not waste my money on this.
Starting point is 01:15:31 So I ended up going down to Miami. And I was doing acting classes down there. Because like I always had fun in front of like the camera and stuff with my sisters, we put on plays and stuff when we were little. And I was like, I don't like modeling for me. That was just like something random. Check it off. I did that.
Starting point is 01:15:47 But you can't really express yourself so much with modeling for me. And it's like, you know, I just I want to be more than that, I guess. Yeah. So when I went down there, there wasn't really many acting gigs in Miami. It was a lot of this is when like EDM, EDM music was kind of like on the come up. So I started doing live EDM event hosting in Miami and just like opening up the shows and stuff for all the artists kind of traveling around with it. But then like a host of yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:18 But that kind of got boring for me too. I'm like, all right, not a massive fan of festivals and all this stuff. So I need to move out to LA and I kind of knew some people in LA just from being back and forth with the Playmate Center Fold releasing. And then when I came out to LA, I was looking for like management agency. But everybody was like, oh, you're a Playmate Center Fold. So that's the roles you have to go for. Or that's, you know, that's what you are.
Starting point is 01:16:44 You can't like branch out of that. And that was super annoying for me because I was like, all right, I did this as like something I've done in my life that I thought was cool. And now it's putting me in a spot that I can't get out of. Even though it was like one moment in my life, it defined me for the rest of my life. That kind of sucks. So I was like, all right, I'm just going to build my own reel and then show them what I can do and the different roles that I can play.
Starting point is 01:17:10 And then when I was starting to do that, I met a friend, Jimmy Teichro, and he did a lot of YouTube videos. I was like, all right, put me, I'll be available whenever you don't have to pay me just for any of your YouTube content. So I can just like build my reel. And so I started shooting with him, but then he went to New Orleans to film 22 Drums Street because he got a roll outside of social media. I was like, that's really cool that he could leverage his platform for that.
Starting point is 01:17:37 And then this app line came out and then I was like, all right, this is a great platform. Six second videos that I can learn how to just like do comedic skits or just do like learn how to edit or learn how to do storylines and all that stuff. So I started doing it on there. And then I'm like, all right, six seconds is pretty easy content. Like there's only so much you can learn with that. But like bettering my comedy throughout it. And then just deciding, all right, I want to do longer form stuff and then studying
Starting point is 01:18:06 how to edit because I didn't have, I only got 25,000 for my centerfold, which for me paid off a lot of college debts. That's all they give you is 25,000. Yeah. That's so upsetting. I feel like you're worth because that's that like you just said, it's, there's so many advantages to doing it obviously. And then there's, it kind of does cast you in a lane.
Starting point is 01:18:27 So now you're really relegated to doing X, I mean, like not, not to say that you can't break out of it, which you did, but it does make your life kind of fucking inconvenient. Yeah, which, you know, I like, I hate complaining about it because it's like something that I decided to do that like it was, But you're 19. Do you know what I'm saying? Like I did road rules back in the 90s too.
Starting point is 01:18:48 You did. I'm a million years old. And I remember they paid us like, they didn't pay us as talent. They paid us as employees of Buna memory, the production company. Oh, wow. Yeah. And that's how they got away with paying us like $600 a week. So people thought like when I came off of that show,
Starting point is 01:19:02 they're like, you must be a millionaire. You are an MTV. And I'm like, no, they paid us nothing to do that show. And they stack checks on you. But then, you know, you take the exposure and you parlay it into other things, which is the trade off I guess. And that's what I thought that like that would be so great for me to do, I was like, Oh, this is like a platform.
Starting point is 01:19:20 It gets me in the door and then I could like build and build and build. And then it just like every single meeting I had was just like, Oh, that's what you are. And like just like, and kind of like there wasn't really any like respect had in any of the meetings too. Like I went to like some sketchy meetings also that people came across like as amazing. And then that's kind of what you, I guess, learn when you're in LA, you meet a lot of shitty people and a lot of awesome people.
Starting point is 01:19:43 But like, yeah, I even had a meeting one time with like a producer that was like, Oh, I'm doing like this, all these movies and stuff, just come over. And I'm like, all right, this is like normal for LA, I guess, like people are super casual. And then I show up and it's like, you know, like six PM or, you know, like end of day kind of. And then I get there and knock on the door and then I just here come around back. And I'm like, all right.
Starting point is 01:20:08 And then just going around back and then I get around back and the guy's completely naked making drinks. And then there's two girls in the hot tub with two other guys all naked. And I'm like, okay, but I didn't want to at the same time. I don't like now I would be just like, all right, bye. But at the same time, I was like, I don't want to be rude. Right. Oh, so I'm like, amazing, by the way.
Starting point is 01:20:32 I think about this all the time because I'm super polite about how many times I'm getting better at it with age that I'll stay in something I don't want to be a part of. Because I'm like, I don't want to be rude right now. Oh my God. But then the older you get, the older you get, go fuck yourself. So wait, how long do you stay there? Well, I only stayed for like 20 minutes. You're like, I bang all six and then I was out of there, let them put it in my butt.
Starting point is 01:20:57 She's got the role, so that's all that matters. But then do you like, you keep it cool. You're like, ah, so I just, I got to split. Yeah, I was just playing like pretending they're all like not naked. Like it's normal. Yeah. I'm like, do you want to drink? No, I'm okay.
Starting point is 01:21:08 I drove. And then that is so bold to be like, just come around back. Yeah. So gross. Really confident in his life. And then when you leave, he's just like, all right, we'll talk later. Well, they all went in the hot tub and the two girls started making out in the hot tub and he's trying to tell me like, oh, this role is amazing.
Starting point is 01:21:26 And I'm like, and I'm like, just, you know, just trying to like date me to stay there. And then I'm just like, it's like, we can talk later about this. This is fine. You seem like your hands occupied right now. Yeah. And he's like, come on in. The girls are like, come on in. Like, don't be shy.
Starting point is 01:21:44 Like Lauren, me and I'm like, no, it's fine. Like, thank you so much. And then I'm like, I really got to go though. I have another meeting with a producer. Uh-huh. A clothed producer. Can you tell me, was the producer, was it Steven Seagal? No.
Starting point is 01:21:58 Yeah. But would that be that? It seems like, it seems like it seems about right. Do you know what's not hot to me about that scenario? Cool naked guys. Well, like, come on, come in the hot tub. And they're trying to like entice this scared girl. Like, how hot is that to have like a scared, unwilling
Starting point is 01:22:18 participant in your nasty orgy? It's like, it is though. It's not even cool. It's like, it is the epitome of. Noticeably awkward. It's not hot. She's terrified. That guy knows to shoot your shot.
Starting point is 01:22:30 You know, he knows. It must have worked for him. 100% no. Because like, he probably had the experience of like, have her come over and take your time getting there. And he's like, you know what I'm going to do now? I'm just going to be naked. And my girls come over and be like.
Starting point is 01:22:43 Yeah, either you're in or you're out. Because then someone's either going to be like, I got to go or they're going to be like, I guess I should stay. And then same time too. Like it's also me just being naive because it's like, I was at a club. I was out and then I met a producer and he was like talking about business.
Starting point is 01:23:01 I'm like, this guy's awesome. And he's like, very helpful. Oh my gosh. Very helpful. Wow. And then, yeah, meet me here and talk about the movie that I'm doing. I'm like, very hopeful, I guess.
Starting point is 01:23:11 And then I'm like, this one guy that believes in me. Everybody goes through it though. Everybody, but we all go through horseshit. And then you figure it out. And then you get agents to keep you away from you. I remember having manager conversations where they're like, do you want to do this thing? And I was so broke.
Starting point is 01:23:29 And they're like, this thing pays like $2,000. And I was like, what? It's a porn. And then he's like, just send your press kit here. And I was like, I don't even have a press kit. You know, I was like 25. I didn't have anything like that. And then you try to throw something together.
Starting point is 01:23:44 And then they just don't respond to you. And you're like, I think this is my opportunity. I don't know what to do. And you start getting nervous about how to. Yeah, all your hopes are just revolving around that. Around this one random person that has messaged you about something. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:57 Can I tell you something? I'm talking to Amanda and seeing you in person. Because I've met playmates before too. And like you guys are. You wish it was blonde. No, I don't. You guys are objectively better looking than everyone else. And I think it bothers me, like this whole fat model
Starting point is 01:24:17 horse shit, because they're trying to make everybody pretty. And it's not. And I get inclusion. But I feel like why take that away from women like you and like Pam Anderson or whoever the fuck. You're genetically gifted. And they always want to discredit beautiful women. But well, it's all airbrush.
Starting point is 01:24:36 No, bitch. It's not. Look at her. She's fucking perfect. You want a genetic lot. You're gorgeous. And I hate that they always think that today's society doesn't just let her be fucking gorgeous and let you.
Starting point is 01:24:48 That's your gift. You're born gorgeous. But we should shame ugly people. I think so too. No. I see what the movement is and what they're trying. But it really does. Because even for me, when I was little,
Starting point is 01:25:03 I was like, I can never be a model. I have a scar on the side of my face. I was bit by a dog when I was little. And I thought I was the ugliest thing forever. Because a lot of photos and magazine covers are airbrushed in. Of course. And they're like everything's so perfect. And it's the perfect person.
Starting point is 01:25:19 And I'm like, I never thought I could be a model just because I couldn't live up to the standards of what I saw. So I'm like, all right, that's never going to happen for me. And then it happened. And I was like, oh, that's cool. But it's just because I'm from my body or whatever. And then I got the guessing. And I was like, oh, that's cool.
Starting point is 01:25:37 I can do anything. And I don't have to be perfect. And I think them putting those images out of the girls that are just so confident in their bodies, and that kind of resonates for the people that are seeing it. For me, when I was younger, that would have inspired me. And allowed me to be more confident. Fat too.
Starting point is 01:25:53 And I can model my half. Just to be more confident, I guess. It doesn't bother you. It bothers me that everyone's pretty. Not everybody's pretty. You're objectively better looking than anybody in this fucking building or in the zip code. It lets you have it.
Starting point is 01:26:08 You know what I mean? I do think that it's a bit much when people are like, we're all models. No, we're not all. No, sweetie. I don't know what the fucking Gapz thinks they're doing. But I walk by there. I'm like, who's this dog?
Starting point is 01:26:22 And it's like, that's the guy from this show. He's like, he's a model now? Maybe they're trying to take away the idea of modeling. That's what they're doing. That's what they're saying. Like, it's just more of a real. But that sucks. That is not real.
Starting point is 01:26:36 But reality sucks. We are reality. You're the ideal. I want to see you two on the cover together. I don't want to vote. But we're not on vote, because we don't look like you. That's the thing is you're supposed to look at magazines and advertisements and aspire.
Starting point is 01:26:52 That's right. To this unattainable thing. That's what I'm talking about. I talked to this. One of my friends, she was a pageant girl. That's a rough gig, too. Yeah. And she was talking about that to me on my podcast.
Starting point is 01:27:05 But she was saying how she wishes the pageant is all great. It's all about beauty. But people scoring about that. But a lot of the girls are being so unhealthy to achieve that. They're like, some are throwing up. Some are passing out. Some are like so many things. And then she was like, it'd be so much better
Starting point is 01:27:23 if it was just about just health and wellness. No. To add it. No. 01:27:29,000 --> 01:27:30,120 They need to get wheels. They need to throw up. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:27:31 It's what we want. Exactly. Let me tell you something. Because when athletes go into the ring, when boxers weigh in to make the cut, the weight. That's an interesting way to look at it. Don't they do that, too? Yeah, they do.
Starting point is 01:27:41 Yeah. The greatest tequiro Kobayashi, the greatest hot dog competitive eater of all time. That guy trained. He punished his body to be the best. And then Joey Chestnut knocked him off his ass. Go America. Right.
Starting point is 01:27:56 We fucked him up. We fucked up that guy. No pain, no gain. That's right. But isn't that part of the discipline? And look, stand-up comedians, we travel in garbage motels. We eat chili dogs at two in the morning. Right.
Starting point is 01:28:07 You got to do it. We suffer for the craft of entertaining drugs. For the related ability. Yes. I do think it's kind of bullshit, though, honestly, for the world of modeling, if a guy like me is like, I want to be a model, that's not your lot in life. But just get offended, and then people will support you.
Starting point is 01:28:27 Yeah, that's probably true. Yeah. Oh, right. If I cried about it, I would cry. Not inclusive. You're not including Tom. I'm full-figured. Please.
Starting point is 01:28:40 I want genetically superior models. Me, too. That's what I like to look at. Prettier people than me, to look at them. I also like to see prettier people. Kissing, I don't say. Everything. Me, too.
Starting point is 01:28:50 Acting? I don't want regular acting. Or in porn, when there's like an average size dick, I'm like, come on out of here. I want to see an anaconda comedians. Me, too. Some people like, you know, no. Regular stuff?
Starting point is 01:29:04 No. Who's watching regular people porn? I mean, I'm sure people are. No, it's like amateur, amateur. I actually never watched porn before. Ever? Ever in my life. To this day?
Starting point is 01:29:15 To this day, yeah. And you've never had a boyfriend try to show it to you and you're like, no? No, I'm sorry. And no girlfriend ever tried this? I lost you. No, sorry, it's a guy with nanny stuff. Oh, OK.
Starting point is 01:29:28 She's like, this girl sucks. No, no, it's my nanny and the kids. How does it go through a lot? I don't even understand how that's possible. Yeah, I've never, ever. You've never been curious? You've never wanted to? No, yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:41 I don't know why. Like, it's not like I'm like, oh, it's bad. No, no, you're just like, I'm not into it. She ain't into it. Some, you know, just believe it or not, and I know we're such derelicts here. There are people that don't watch pornography, talk about shitting on other people's chests,
Starting point is 01:29:56 pissing on people, beating people, selling panties. There are people that are civilized. I know. I'm going to have the same feeling of when I left my producer meeting. She tells me all the time that my head is full of garbage. Full of garbage. You're such a degenerate.
Starting point is 01:30:17 I know what you're talking about. I actually, I'm just like, just so I don't forget. Yeah. I just need to play this for you. You need to play this for me? Yeah. Uh-oh. It's from Lazy.
Starting point is 01:30:29 Uh-oh. Oh, my, my high school player. No, don't, don't do not play that. I can see what you're leaning into, Medav. She's a nice girl. Don't, don't play this. Oh, for fuck's sake, the most horrifying one. Oh, no, don't do it.
Starting point is 01:30:41 No, no, no. It's not, it's not, it's not like that. Oh, just, it is like that. It's cool. Why are you playing? It's cool. She's a nice lady. Okay, hold on.
Starting point is 01:30:49 He's, he's, oh, oh. This is my first time. This is my dad. Hold on. This is a boy. I mean, can we be nice to my dad? We should have regular people on our show more often. I like Amanda.
Starting point is 01:31:01 Hi there, guys. It's Pete again, and I'm here to do a little video. I wanted to use this, but by greening toy that I bought, this new one, and I thought I'd try that in, and then I also wanted to try this double-ended product review. Oh, it's a product review. It's like massive bullets in them. I haven't used it, of course.
Starting point is 01:31:17 Massive bullets. Wait a minute. This is the video that lost us our McDonald's sponsorship. We were sponsored by McDonald's. This guy took it away. Yeah, well, I mean, you can get some of the products he has on your show. Do you know about the Netflix show, Scam City? It's about people getting scammed in random places.
Starting point is 01:31:39 I think it's called Scam City. He's on the first episode. This guy? This guy, yeah. Really? And then we found him. Oh, that's right. We found out about that.
Starting point is 01:31:47 If he can do it, I can do it. You can do it. Yeah, so hold that one second. I'm just going to play this. When you go on the podcast, ask Tom to sing along with you. I'm a little sick, but not bad. God, Saint Edward, Saint Edward, how proud we are of you. Our hearts, our minds, our loyalties are true.
Starting point is 01:32:06 The spirit of the white blood goes on internally and won't tell the world we are the best we can be. I can't believe she's one of those people that actually knew their school's fight song. I've never known that. Holy shit. Yeah. Lacy, and she's going to be very disappointed. I know this. I'm just going to tell her you're staying along with it.
Starting point is 01:32:25 Oh, yeah, just tell her. Yeah. Can you just sing it? She's going to watch this. Can you just sing something? She's going to watch you and be like, what's it? She's going to be pissed. I just played it because she wanted me to sing it and not play her audio.
Starting point is 01:32:36 She's going to apologize to you for setting this up. She's going to be like, I'm sorry. After she watches this, everything she has this memory of you that is just so great. Yeah, really? Oh my God. She's so sweet. Lacy's the sweetest. Okay, wait, before we show, I want to show you some TikTok stuff.
Starting point is 01:32:56 Oh, yeah. Sorry. So you're on TikTok. What's your TikTok name? Amanda Cerny. Gotcha. Yeah, I'm pretty like I'm really cross-platform. I want to jump to something, though.
Starting point is 01:33:06 So I know you moved to Miami. You're doing your own videos and you're starting to shoot these sketches. And then does it start to pick up track? Do you go like, oh, this is actually getting. It wasn't in Miami. Like Miami, I was doing the EDM. Oh, right. Okay, so you move out here.
Starting point is 01:33:25 Yeah, it was here. I moved out to. You meet cool producers. You start. Horrible meetings. I'm like, shit, I'm just going to do this on my own and build my own reel. Mine started. Started doing these horrible mine videos and then just kind of bettering them.
Starting point is 01:33:40 Mine was hard. Six seconds is not a lot of time to produce killer content. And I have so much admiration for you and the other people that built following. Would you study other people to think? You know what I mean? Because I remember I saw when Vine was a thing, I was like, I'm not fucking doing this. That was my.
Starting point is 01:33:55 No, it's too much. Is that how it would work? You'd be like, what's what makes a good one? Yeah, it like, I mean, your whole goal would be to try to make somebody smile or within six seconds, you know. And so that's a challenge in its own. It's not a lot of time. It would actually be 6.5 seconds.
Starting point is 01:34:15 And we'd be that's like the point. Five seconds is like heaven. And you'd really. Like study how much to put in six and a half seconds. Yeah, because you could have like 10 cuts in a six second vine. So it's like, you know, just kind of putting something small together. But for what it was at the time, because mine, like people still call videos on platforms, vines,
Starting point is 01:34:37 like it became like this whole thing of its own. And a lot of people kind of grew with that platform, myself being one of them. And from there, I was like, okay, I grew to four million followers on Vine. And I was like, all right, that's a lot of people that like kind of grew with because it was almost like this cool platform that like it was new. So which is what made it cool. Can I ask you to at the time you build the four million plus vine followers, are you putting all your attention just there?
Starting point is 01:35:09 And or are you present in other platforms too? I don't really have time for anything else because I would do my own. I know there's six seconds, but sometimes they take like an hour to film. I believe you. Yeah. And then people started moving out from like Ohio, all different places around the U.S. just to be able to collaborate with other people that were doing well on the platform. Wow.
Starting point is 01:35:31 And then so we all started doing stuff together and spending like entire days just shooting Vine content. So we had a ton, like probably shot like two movies worth of content in like vines like throughout the year. And then so we like filled this platform with all of our content and then always be on like they had a popular page on Vine. So we'd always be like the top ones on the platform, like the top like 20 minors or whatever.
Starting point is 01:35:57 And then from there, I was like, okay, this is cool, but I grew up following there. Like let me just a Snapchat just came out to with like public sharing of their stories. And I was like, all right, I can do because I was doing improv classes at the time too. And that's when I just kind of started them and started them. And I was like, this is a great way for me just to like have fun with the platform and not like invest so much time into it because it disappears after 24 hours, but to tell like improv bedtime stories on Snapchat.
Starting point is 01:36:26 And that was the first one that started doing that. And I became like the top 10 most viewed influencer or like celebrity or whatever on the app. And then like I had like more views than DJ Khaled on the app. Jesus. And then I would do that all the time. And then I started doing Instagram got video and that's basically what killed mine. Yes. It's like they got allowed 15 seconds instead of the six seconds at the time.
Starting point is 01:36:50 Did you make that switch pretty quickly when you saw that? Yeah, because it's like you have so much more content and the app and the people that were running the app like weren't catering as much to the influencers on the app. So let me ask you this though. So you go over there, you see that like that there's more time. And then in a year or so, you build about a million followers on Instagram. Yeah. And then so what year is that?
Starting point is 01:37:13 That's like 2014, 2015. So then in another four to five years, you add another 24 million. Yeah. And like let me ask you this. Jesus Christ. I imagine you may have thought. That's more than Billie Eilish. I got to go look at Billie's.
Starting point is 01:37:30 Who's amazing. Who's amazing. I love her. I found her on the gram. Yeah. See she's so good. So what I want to ask is like do you ever stop and think about like there's so many people trying to do this and there's whatever lane you want to call it.
Starting point is 01:37:44 Like there's pretty girls posting videos all the time and photos and they're beautiful photos and beautiful girls and maybe they're doing the emulating to a certain degree. You have as many followers as Billie Eilish. Really? You guys are about the same. Cool. So do you ever stop and think about like what what like to someone who's going like, how do I make this grow more?
Starting point is 01:38:05 Like what separates, you know what I mean? It's hard now. Well it's a lot more difficult now because I feel like everything's about timing too. Like for me when I started doing Instagram videos there wasn't a ton of people doing it. When when something starts to become a trend so many people come in out of nowhere that's like not organic to them also and just try to like capitalize off the market of what's been successful for other people and when I was doing it not a ton of people were doing it. It was just I was doing it because it was the next step for me from buying to like
Starting point is 01:38:38 start creating a little bit longer form and then longer form in the YouTube and then Facebook. So a big credit to the success is the fact that it was like an organic natural. And you're an early adapter. That's huge. Yeah. Yeah. And that makes ship at the right time. There's so much content like on social media now.
Starting point is 01:38:54 It's just like it's really difficult for people like to have a million followers. It's a lot and that's great but there's a lot of people to have that now. Yeah. To and it's like very difficult to grow outside of that even with algorithms and stuff like that now that they have in place that makes it a lot more difficult. So I would say unless you're just doing something completely unique to you like you're going to struggle a lot with it because I see a ton of people doing like the booty picks. So like all those stuff and expecting to be this massive like celebrity from it.
Starting point is 01:39:28 And I'm like following that it'd be like eight thousand followers and you're like how does this person you know what I mean they're just stuck in. Yeah. And I think a lot of it is though if you don't have a strong passion for what you're doing and you know desire to grow and just like keep bettering yourself through things like it's you're just going to be stuck in that same spot because a lot of people just do it because they want to be famous or they want to just want the likes they just want the follows. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:55 And they're not like creatively satisfied on the platforms either. Amanda let's talk turkey. I'm a huge fan of the Graham. Oh yeah. Give me your secrets. My secrets are. Let's talk about time. Does it matter what time of day or post it.
Starting point is 01:40:09 Let's get into that. Hashtags are they important in growing your audience. No not anymore. I mean like some people will see them. I guess I'm only speaking from like where I am now. And so it's for me I don't use them ever. Wow. Now that's interesting.
Starting point is 01:40:26 Unless it's like branded content. But if people are looking for panties and you put hashtag panties. Hashtag panties. They may find it. They may discover it. Now what time of day is the best time of day to post your Instagram post. I just kind of I'm not. I'm the worst person to answer.
Starting point is 01:40:41 No but here's the thing you're talking to like fucking Bill Gates about his banking. It's like. Right. Am I asking the wrong question. Yeah. She's already. What do I need to ask. She doesn't have to worry about.
Starting point is 01:40:51 Well that's the thing is that. She's just established. You know what I mean. She's already. No hold on. I can't give some. Yeah. Go give me some tips.
Starting point is 01:40:57 I want to grow my gram to 25 mil. Right. Okay. So they have analytics now which they didn't have before of the best time to post. So you don't have to like feel out your audience. You could just look at your graph and be like okay. I need to post two hour before that like peak in the graph. An hour before the peak you're saying.
Starting point is 01:41:15 I say a couple hours before it would be good for you. She said two. Two hours before. I paid attention. You said original content. Yes. Are you thinking now I've known some famous Viners and YouTubers. And they tend to create from the outside in meaning.
Starting point is 01:41:30 They go oh for instance Billy Eilish. That's a that's a hot topic. I should create a content based on what's cool. Yeah. Brandy is important too. I mean I could do that on YouTube all day and just say shitty things about people and like have the drama channels and stuff. But that's not like kind of like what I want to do with my life.
Starting point is 01:41:50 But it just depends what I guess people want to do. Because you can just capitalize off of the fame of other people too. And kind of cannibalize like that bad person's famous. I'm going to pick on them. Yeah. Make them the thumbnail. Yeah. Oh geez.
Starting point is 01:42:03 Yeah. You can do that. I mean if that's your thing. But I don't think that's your thing. That's not my thing. I'm not interested in that. I don't care about other people. I'm very self centered.
Starting point is 01:42:11 Yeah. So posting should I be posting bikini pics. Now do you think there's a mom bod market that I could be tapping it. Yeah. Really. Yeah. Like my flabbier lower hanging breasts could be. I think I for sure.
Starting point is 01:42:25 Of interest to somebody. Hashtag low tits. Low tits. Mushroom curls. I like that photo. I don't think so. I want to ask a couple other things if that's okay. Are you done with your.
Starting point is 01:42:35 But I want the secrets. Give me some more of those. Consistency. All the way. Tell me about that. How consistent is consistency every day. I would say focus on I used to say videos grow you a lot more than photos do and they do. Just for like just human nature you see somebody on a video and you're more likely to be more
Starting point is 01:42:54 interested in them than a photo. Wow it's so true. Consistency so once a day twice a day. Once. Once a day. Yeah. Okay two hours before the peak. That'll be good for you.
Starting point is 01:43:07 Okay. Thank you. I'll be DMing you shortly with other questions. Keep updated. Things will come to mind. I'll let you know. Tech talk. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:16 One of the things that like we were talking about. Collapse. Collapse. For this. Whoa do you know that move. Oh no see I don't do that. I don't I can't I am I'm probably the same with you when you're watching tech talk. Like I I can't do that.
Starting point is 01:43:31 And you're not doing the dances. No. Hey Julie. Heard you got the drip drip drip. No I don't. You know more about it than I do probably. So yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:43:42 Go ahead. Sorry I didn't realize that. I want to die. So no one of the things we were talking about briefly out there and we were talking about it earlier is like you know all of us have these aspirations of like like that the mainstream entertainment is the goal and that we know we're relegated to this second class if you're big on social media if you're on the internet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:05 Right. But then this thing happens where when you actually build something and there's a following you have all these followers and you're able to you know you have a fitness clothing line right that serene fit and and you see how it grows you're like wait a minute what what the fuck am I doing trying to do the other thing like this is it the thing I have going that I'm the boss of I'm the I'm the brand I don't know why anyone even once they build something want to break out of that I feel like you get on a TV show yeah I feel like if you get on a TV show like right now whatever you're it's like it's a punishment.
Starting point is 01:44:42 It's going to take away time and money from your business. Yeah well I think people just and a lot of influencers I see this too like they just like look up to it because that's what they were raised on too right but now the younger generations they don't even think about that they want to be youtubers they want to be like you'll ask any kid and they'll be like I want to be a youtuber. Do you feel like that now that you want to stay in the lane of what you've done and built? No because then it's not like I'm not growing like I just want I want to definitely get more respect in the industry that I've always wanted to be a part of too and just like learn from
Starting point is 01:45:18 those people also because yeah I'm doing like producing packaging things and directing like my own stuff but I can learn a lot more and like me being on set with those people like on that hands-on experience it's going to teach me way more than me watching YouTube videos about it. And also it's like now I'm able to like produce and package things and put those together with like traditional actors on traditional platforms so I am doing more of that now. That's great so is that is that the the next thing for you is like is it producing features or television or? Yeah it's both like that's the thing now too you're not stuck in any one category
Starting point is 01:45:58 like even for you like with you do your stand-up you do your comedy you could do movies you could do anything you've podcast like you know you're not like people don't put people as much as they used to in a box anymore just because you're able to brand yourself right and that's why I love social media so much is because like I was put in that box but then I kind of like thank goodness in a way that social media wasn't really relevant at that time and I was able to brand myself completely outside of that to where now people are like oh she did that like that was like an extra layer to myself that people had no idea about and for me that was amazing because I was able to like show different sides of myself without being judged based off
Starting point is 01:46:41 like one thing I did in my life that's awesome it's so great it is and also these gatekeepers are losing their power and Hollywood and show business if they didn't you know crown you an actor they they resent you until you're so big and you're so undeniable and then now you're in the fold but they like to make you you know that's all it is it's snobbery but those gatekeepers are losing their power and it's fantastic and good for you yeah well thank you no it's awesome what you've built um we want to play a little game with you and that you know you're this you're this well known sorry in advance star social media um yeah celeb so here's where we're playing okay is that the same guy no it's a different guy it's a different cool guy so he's cool

Starting point is 02:15:58 i think that was the first time i like corresponded with you because i'd seen you in passing yeah yeah but that opening was so saccharine and sweet oh yeah it was shot beautifully and i was like it was really endearing and then all of a sudden the guys just started cheating on you i was like it's fucking great yeah that was just a great introduction that was for mostly stories yeah that was fun you shot that in downtown downtown then we went to the act we went to these uh east la projects yeah with no obviously like no permit and i'm there with my friend rami hashash who is a director and then like these kids come over this the overpass bridge they're like what the fuck you all do in real life start rolling yeah everyone was like we gotta get this in go yeah exactly yeah
Starting point is 02:16:38 roll them up roll them up dude um but you did uh you also had like i fucking you had your own television show too which is Sullivan and son yeah on tbs right tbs ad support at basic cable television is how i like to ad support how many seasons are that huge though it was fun at the time it was it was it was it was great it was a great experience i got to go to the Warner Brothers lot you know for three summers and and the great thing about that show was that it was it was a bar mm-hmm but it was a functioning bar so we had a live studio audience so people always dump on multi-cams like oh this is just like it's pumped up laughter it's like no the tough thing about doing a multi-cam is you got to get the laughs so if they're not laughing you didn't get it with a single
Starting point is 02:17:22 cam you film it's like i think we got it yeah i guess we got it that's what filmmaking is like yeah you're like it feels funny and you watch it and i think sometimes with single cams it's so like they get so many of those ivy league writers yeah those shows that it you watch you go oh was that was clever yeah clever yeah but like big bang cheers married with children those are shows i still appreciate watch i like having on the background and when we were filming if you didn't get the laugh you convene you pump out the jokes and then you go back and then do it again do it again and yeah hope to god it works it's funny how many do you ever have people like message you about they're like yeah there's a laugh track in the uh special and you're like that's not yeah
Starting point is 02:18:03 you're like that's there's a thousand people there no that's not it's not yeah yeah like we're talking about like that's a laugh track like there's no there's a thousand people in the room yeah it's not scooby-doo right the 80s you know you can see like the audience is laughing that's an applause break that was earned you didn't you can't fake that i've seen that message like a bunch of times they're like i like the special like don't do the laugh track though like what are you talking about like you don't see like that shot at the open where it goes over the audience like yeah there's actually human beings in the theater that are enjoying me thanks for shetnam but yeah but though i liked it but i know that they didn't like yeah oh but i will tell you on sullivan
Starting point is 02:18:44 incident when we did it we'd kick the audience out you know thank you for coming and then we hook up kegs to the taps had whiskey all over the place and then the jukebox was just hung out there and we we would party until like three or four in the morning on the set on the set whoa we set up karaoke one time and what we do is we have these golf carts i get fucking blottoed and i drive down on that back path we're like uh Jurassic park the jeep thing was cool and i'd flip over the golf carts and stuff there were cone setup for film in the next day i'd run over all the cones that's fun we got so many letters like you gotta stop this can't continue it was just like i never know what i'm gonna get cancelled so i'm gonna live it up every fucking moment that's great it
Starting point is 02:19:27 was a blast that's a dream you ever think about like because you've done things already now that like having been out here a while and you know done a few things and tried to like the improbability of getting a show on the air oh my god you ever think about like how many people go through development season pilots and like i'm saying like almost everyone i talked to who has done this for years is like well yeah i mean like you expect to not get on the air no i mean when you think about to get a show on the air is amazing the actual probability of it i mean how many you're up against how many other pilots even just to get to that point of making a pilot and then you're up against one slot the equivalent of like you played college ball and you got
Starting point is 02:20:12 drafted and you made the team you know i mean like that that's what happened yeah but i was on in the summer on well i mean look look i don't negate it you know but the one thing i will say was that when we were filming this book called top of the rock came out i remember i read that about the sitcoms yeah it was about NBC's heyday like thursday night must-see tv and i remember reading this story that no wiley had told um the author when he was on er he went back to the warner brother lot for like an interview after he had been done with er for years and um after his interview he walked back to the er stage on the warner lot and he walked in and it was vacant there was nothing there and all these memories kind of flooded back to him and and the one quote he said in the book
Starting point is 02:20:57 was it was as though it never happened and when i read that i remember being the writers room i was like i'm never going to take this for granted i'm gonna i'm gonna enjoy every second i get because this is why you pack your bags right you leave your hometown you go off to the big city thinking you're gonna make it and then when it was happening was like oh this is the best the fucking best i mean bryan dole murray and dan okay can i just tell you that that's one of the three funniest human beings that's ever lived he's the nicest guy this is my favorite story about bryan so he we we'd go over to his house bring him up because i'm like make sure the audience knows because i'm not sure i know the owner of no is arcade on wanes world it was like i'm working with
Starting point is 02:21:36 this guy oh yeah he's bill's brother he was the first one to go to second city then bill came and everybody else came yeah along but oh i know you're talking about yes yes he's so fun i know the older guy yeah he's rad dude he's rad he is so fucking yeah so awesome and he we went over to his house uh we used to go over to everybody's house we'd all have picnics and barbecues and stuff and we were lining up some whiskey before we left and his wife uh his wife goes bryan we're holding up the shots of whiskey she goes bryan what did you give up for lent he goes uh religion and we all cheers and did it i was like he's so quick he was so great so funny man look how many movies he's been in i didn't realize that he's been around kora caddy shack
Starting point is 02:22:19 i mean he's just unbelievable and then christine ever saw who was on our show she won two tony she did weekend update with bryan dude i remember he also wasn't he in the christopher guest movies too then he'd do a couple did he do appearance in that that i don't know i wouldn't be surprised if he didn't i mean he pops up in everything yeah he's you know the thing that i love about bryan dole murray is that he can also just do so much with just a look you know i mean yeah like he mastered like just looking at someone yeah and like that becomes a joke it's so funny yeah like the timing of how he does it that it says it says more than any line could say well i'm more impressed that he can go by three names whenever somebody gets a three-namer like oh it's so special yeah that's not
Starting point is 02:23:03 an assassin yeah yeah lea harry oswald john ryan dole murray he's a talent right time you know about all those murders and killers that's some good guys that are not respected it's enough yeah yeah a lot of talented family for sure those guys um so wait so tell us because i actually remember when you when you first told me this you know i thought like that's so unique but i remember being a kid and there's certain like you know i remember seeing raw and i remember seeing yeah bill cosby himself i remember seeing uh the amazing jonathan as a kid yeah i think on an hbo did you have an hbo he did a hbo young comedian special that john canny hosted i remember watching that and fucking like almost puking from laughing so hard you know yeah it's like so funny and i love seeing
Starting point is 02:23:52 somebody like usually somebody that does something visual and has magic is a certain type and then like what if somebody like that doing cursing and being outrageous was a mix of the two things you never expect right i've never seen amazing john oh my god i know the name but i've never watched so what's his deal he does like magic tricks comedy magic he's like the freddy kruger of comedy is what he was marketed as but it's like tom said it's like there's like magic i think has a stigma of kind of being nerdy i love magic if you don't love magic then you'll love jonathan because he he takes it to another level like another degree where he incorporated blood into it a lot because he was busking in san francisco he's a street performer with rob Williams and this one guy goes
Starting point is 02:24:39 man i got these blood caps so she should throw this into the thing and then once he did the blood and discussion from his mouth and pulling razor blades out of his mouth he would be like i'm doing magic and be like oh fuck i fuck yeah that's hilarious but that's part of like his thing too is like i like guys can you turn down the lights please can you turn down the lights he'd be in the theater and a huge fucking light thing would come down and dunk him on his head and he dropped down and just all this like physical humor because his comedy and magic was rooted in failure and that's why i love watching it so how did this even come up like how did this come about well i so when i was in new york at the cellar and all the all the clubs i got a road gig first for two
Starting point is 02:25:16 weeks to make it profitable because i traveled down from new york so my first week was with brian reagan this is charlie goodnights and rolly and the second week was the amazing jonathan and i just saw jonathan i was like holy shit man this guy's you're working you're doing a week with him working a weekend with him i i loved it and then his road manager joel osborne who's who's shown prominently in the film as well joel is like the heart and soul of the film like jonathan's the face but joel and i love oasis so we're trading each other bootlegs and stuff and that's how i got to know these guys so i did comic view on bet that was my first like tv spot so jonathan let me crash on his couch and every time i came out to la i'd crash on his couch and
Starting point is 02:25:56 then i'd go to vegas and see him at the nugget and he'd get me a room and stuff it was just like he was one of those guys that you saw on tv that was like the first guy you met that you became friends with you know i don't know who that was for you guys right like jonathan was kind of like real friend like your celebrity you guys actually clicked like you you clicked and became friends yeah clicked and became friends and then essentially he was diagnosed as of today five years ago with cardiomyopathy which is a degradation of your heart so his heart i believe is at like 55 capacity now it might be lower but given his manic energy on stage no good you can't match that so his doctors told him with the concoction of diabetes and being
Starting point is 02:26:36 a lifelong drug addict you got a year to live so wrap it up so he got his affairs in order and was resigned to dying he outlived these expectations and about the third year he said i'm gonna see if i still have it i i want to get back on stage so he announced a return to stage three shows on the east coast in boston and the minute i saw the announcement i was just like i'd love to see that because i love docs yeah and i love stand-up and i was like this would be a great stand-up doc then so i called him up i said could i do this and he said absolutely because i know jonathan's trajectory but joel osborne jonathan met joel when joel was 12 years old backstage after a show in australia it's just a little kid asking for an autograph
Starting point is 02:27:22 comes back the next year 13 hey can i get an autograph keep seeing this kid the kids keeps following him around australia and basically jonathan teaches him tricks and each year after year he he kind of fosters him along the way and joel had his parents had just gotten divorced whatever so i think he looked at jonathan as a father figure and watching the tapes over and over again basically joel turns 18 jonathan says will you be my road manager take an 18 year old kid to road manage a drug addict in los vegas and joel this kid got put through the ringer he oversaw a nasty divorce a suicide attempt the perils of los vegas and joel kept jonathan alive and on track and basically got his life in shape said i'm going australia became a comedian on his own so
Starting point is 02:28:07 when jonathan said i'm coming back to this stage joel came back to open form so it all kind of came full circle that's cool the minute it all kind of happened i was like this kind of plays itself out i saw it so did you have to did uh he agrees to do it did you pitch the idea then to you know i don't know financiers or companies to i took a few different places um and essentially what ended up happening was i just went out of pocket it was a passion project and i love jonathan i love his act and i love joel and i love their dynamic so i just kind of did it on my own and as you guys know sometimes these projects they start to spiral out of control and the money starts to consume you but at the end of the day i was given a choice of like where to let this live
Starting point is 02:28:50 and i just wanted as many people to see it i want as many people to be reeducated or reintroduced to jonathan as possible as possible so in talking to bill burrow now magical at all things comedy i said let's just put this on youtube and let's let everybody see this i'll take a bath on it but the response on it thus far has been tremendous anybody can just watch this right anybody can watch it it's on youtube you just type in always amazing and you guys know the comment section on any youtube video can be uh yeah very inspiring and uplifting good for your ego and self-esteem we're at like probably like 97 positive god i thought i thought we're gonna get some real trolls here but it's been nothing short of just like we're just kind of blown away at the response
Starting point is 02:29:33 well now i have to see him i gotta research this always amazing you can watch it just for free for free on youtube and there's a good production value we put a lot of money in this thing but but my goal ultimately was was to get this done before jonathan unfortunately is no longer with us and thank god i did and i'll never forget the first time i did it for him i showed it to him in vegas at his theater room and he said i love it and he got up and walked out and i was think it was probably you know getting himself together and i remember calling my wife immediately afterwards i was crying and i was like i don't care if i ever make a dime on this thing which i haven't but that meant everything to me it meant the world because he he placed his his legacy his
Starting point is 02:30:14 story in my hand is he no longer with us he is still with us yeah uh he has good days he has bad days as of late from what i know i'm talking to him i think he's having a few more bad days than he is is there is a treatment you know uh available to oh this is the aspect we left out of the film which maybe i should have kept in but he's still with us today because and and he said this on film but he uh he basically takes stem cells from the black market through mexico um wow so for example this one story he told us that we left out because i was like that's a bit much he lost his toe he lost his toe and his toe because he's diabetic he has no feelings in his feet right so it just his toe just pulled off he just pulled it off what he pulled off his
Starting point is 02:31:03 toe so he goes to the doctor and they inject stem cell where the void was of not having a toe and it grew back what but not but not like what do you mean what grew back like a nub grew back so the doctor had to like whittle it into the shape of a toe so he kind of this is what happens with stem cells mexican stem cells yeah yeah so i guess it's like it's like mexican coke you know it's it's a little stronger a little more potent but it's sweeter too sure this is the fetish material i want this is the content i'm looking for i'll say i'll have him send you some socks you can just smell them thank you can we have a documentary about this toe i feel like that's its own story believe it when he was telling when i put it you see the toe yeah how's it look
Starting point is 02:31:51 um you ever see christian with a shirt off yeah by the way this studio is so much nicer than his yeah so much so tom's tour bus is nicer as well you guys have like a great dynamic it's like when you see christian and his wife it's like ah they love each other but you don't see the chemistry that you see it's just like a better mojo in here oh yeah everything's better i mean so much more handsome too yes they're well lit she doesn't like him yeah he doesn't like him his place smells like bad cabbage yeah also that's something you can't yeah smell when you watch him yeah and it's like do you want to see a i mean there's racist people why would you go to pay to see people don't know this but when you walk up to that shed or garage there's all these tiki torches leading you into
Starting point is 02:32:35 it yes yeah yeah and he's like zig dial welcomes in my podcast yeah i don't want to see that shit no one does no burning crosses he's a racist he's a racist man so uh i think i would really like amazing jonathan i really like magic i don't know why people poo poo it it's just it's entertaining you remember the magic castle that shit is fucking amazing dude it's great thinking of fun he retired from performing at the magic castle actually oh really what do you mean he was like a he had a resident he was a regular there and i was really respected super fun experience yeah it's the best yeah it's like uh you know offices will go there like it'll be like an office outing but you go there and you know i mean like it'll be like hey let's uh this is your christmas

Starting point is 02:36:30 but no i wrote a feature called the opening act about my earliest and stand-up and so many like this stand-up films come out it's like something in their 50s or like 60s and they're like i was like it's so fucking boring and a lot of the stand-up films i saw i was like i i haven't seen one that i felt was like that's how it really is yeah i agree and so i just wrote about that important part of every comic's life where you you can see your life in front of you but you know you have this burning desire to pursue your bliss and so that was it it was like the impetus this kid gets offered for his first time to go on the road and the whole film takes place over four days and it's the first time he ever gets to mc at an improv and so i remember that that
Starting point is 02:37:15 experience so vividly it's so crazy and the memories start flooding back for it where was yours braya oh brayers was yours oh you told me that right yeah that place is like the old braya is like yeah yeah it's like magic you had a lot of great memories because you i that's the first place i mc'd and then headlined too right featured and headlined that's really that's awesome man that i'm so glad we got to do it there then and i headlined there way before i should it was an off night for like they're like we somebody's doing like a fundraiser yeah you want a headline i was like okay yeah and i just what i did was i wrote out every joke i had ever written yeah till that point and i was able to to do it and i thought i was like oh i guess i'm a headliner now no i was like so not ready for
Starting point is 02:37:59 that but yeah my first feature weekends my first mc weekends were all there yeah that's so awesome it's i i think the film really does like the first half of the film is all the romanticism optimism and blind like faith and partying of hanging out with the feature act yeah and then the back half of the film was all the isolation sobriety and realism of him finally warming up to this road weary veteran that's played by sedger the entertainer yeah and you had a great cast man well thank you for being a part of it oh thanks thanks for the yeah the offer i mean it's like uh you gave me the some of the things i wanted to do more than anything uh which i get to be violent and sex well the best part is when you pulled up you know you play cop i don't tell
Starting point is 02:38:41 too much but yeah but all the improv you did on the uh handle saying all the things i never want to say but uh but the story so that make the cut is it make the cut oh it made the cut yeah there's a few lines yeah great great and it's really fun but but that incident whatever this does come out people see it they'll go there's no there's no way that that actually happened to me it happened to me uh in um in north carolina was at charlie goodnight so what in raleigh in raleigh north carolina yeah holy shit i ended up under somebody's trailer what oh we have to see that yeah that's wild yeah that is wild it's pretty cool no i can't i mean so when can we expect to see it because i definitely i'm i'm so pumped to see it i think probably early 2020 yeah is when
Starting point is 02:39:21 it comes out there were there was so many things like i wanted to incorporate like there was a there was a fight i had um early in my career like i was talking to jay larson about this like he's never been a fistfight in his life and then i was i was doing burrs burrs podcast he's kind of a girl and we were yeah but he doesn't seem like i've been in a fistfight you know you've been in a fistfight was it through stand-up no no just in junior high school talking to shit i wouldn't even say it's a fistfight i would just say that i attempted to swing back like i don't even call it a fight do you know what i'm saying like she hit me i tried to hit back and it probably lasted three seconds yeah i mean you both ended up crying no not this bitch nobody tried no i ended
Starting point is 02:40:02 up crying that bitch won the fight but go ahead sorry but i like when i was on burrs we were talking fight and like have you ever been in fight i've been in i've been in for stand-up for stand-up yeah no i mean for stand-up i've had people that wanted to fight me yeah and i've had like the staff been like you have to wait in the room and right right and i've had i've had security come and been like you know escort me out of places yeah and i've had like people screaming in the lobby at the manager about you know i've seen i've seen that like yeah a number of times over the course of my career right people very upset that they saw the show that kind of thing that's the best when you're like a feet when you're headlining but you're not established yet i've never heard of

Starting point is 02:47:35 but i want to gauge you know what you think is fun oh fucking okay is it somebody shitting their pants during a show because then i'll love it it's pretty good stuff just like something that we like to show our guests uh here we go no no quiet oh steve don't laugh steve get the fuck out of the car and help him there he is he's helping but he he's helping look at that level of concern see how he's helping he looks like he's worried and then what are you gonna reach down and help him out i gotta get something to eat man man i gotta hydrate his head that's a winning sense of humor see well no he's very funny he makes people shit their pants
Starting point is 02:48:41 but he has a good sense of humor i know he laughed at all the right parts because it happened in a different language that's what makes it's not real when it's another country thank you that's real and you don't see any of the damage you don't see any of the damage the fact that he'll never walk again is not in your mind you just know it hurts i do love the level of concern of ah see but then he went down but then he and then the car just uh it went down again yeah that's the part that kind of made me laugh worried you think he's down for the my favorite is it back for more we uh we played it for a long time and then we had no idea what was being said yeah and then somebody wrote in it takes place in
Starting point is 02:49:23 taiwan and he's basically screaming stuck i'm stuck my favorite video of all time do you remember that fat chick on a motorcycle when she hits a bump and then the inertia propels her forward and you just see this lifeless tundra of a body just beluga whale just shut my fucking the one that's one of the first things i've ever seen like online that made me cry hysteria well here's maybe you'll like this oh i know what you're gonna play i've been watching it all week just another garage oh i thought you were hoping the other one that's the other one well this is russian right oh oh christ there's a kid there oh no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no oh
Starting point is 02:50:22 what part makes you laugh hard is her screaming to terror the the terror that she's knowing that it's over you know a man in overalls is going to do nothing no one's ever been saved by anybody in overalls and those like foreigner overalls like eastern blocker ones you know they're like too narrow or something yeah blue band do i have the helicopter from last week is that in there or no oh i don't think you have it but i could set it up you just show fat girl on a motorcycle yeah i'd like to see this fat show this is literally my favorite you know i wish you wouldn't fat shame and my wife would see it and she'd go i don't i don't see anything funny i'm like how do you not find this fucking hilarious oh here's this is kind of funny did i play one

Starting point is 02:52:59 look at that holy shit oh you hate to see that that's that guy she was it one spinning as fast as the rotors yeah right do you realize that like at first when she went up her mind she was dude do you know you think you're going crazy right like if you're getting airlifted by the people that are saving you and that you're like you're just crying like they're trying to kill me you're saving me thank fucking kill me i'd rather die i know rick your day can't get
Starting point is 02:53:46 worse 74 74 she is she dead she has to die no she can't be alive i think they would have mentioned that in the story and then they killed her but she was taken okay she was taking us on stable condition man her diaper however yeah can you imagine when they open that thing like what you got she was like what happened and they're like nothing you just got airlifted out that's just a standard airlift she's like oh i'm real scary um can i pull one other thing up from this yeah i want to show steve is a because this one i never understood why christina didn't laugh at this one so please don't make me watch these if we're going i hate some of these they bum me out they're like they're like old friends you gotta you gotta say hi to her so check this one out steve
Starting point is 02:54:36 okay oh he's like and then this guy the second this other guy here he's like all right come on man look cigarette so guys no that's the best part where is this this has to be an eastern europe it's gotta be like ukraine or something like that right i love those cries though like you know that she's all right the cries what was that a rhino sorry guys drago got loose my apologies look how a bull can fuck that was a boy by the way the health department's never been in this restaurant no never no there's no score they don't do scores there jesus that was a rogue bull so yeah maybe spain or somewhere but no but that guy seems a little more eastern european
Starting point is 02:55:30 he kind of does yeah i mean but that's great right sure great i hate the screaming what is wrong with you what is wrong with you your evening viewing has been horrendous lately no last night when you got chased by an animal i wouldn't make any i'd just be running i don't scream i don't i'd scream i scream you do i'd scream a bull oh fuck like i'd be like fuck fuck fuck i don't remember the situation where i like screamed out of fear no no i just i let out i let out the craziest high-pitched scream you scream i screamed i don't normally scream yeah this they got me so good with this we were in uh we were doing military shows in gantanamo bay at gitmo and all over the base yeah so every night they would take us to like a bar here and then a bar
Starting point is 02:56:25 here so it's like one of our first nights and there are there's an infestation of banana rats i don't know if you could pull up banana rat but like just to get an idea sorry i just got to hide my boner yeah so there their banana rats are all over the island okay so if you oh fuck and if you go to like that far right one there like these things are like they get big they're pretty big yeah so there's a guy on the on base whose job it is to just drive around base with like a 22 or something i mean look at the the size that's that thing right not a rat that's like no it's like a possum or raccoon it's like it's a fucking big ass it's like a big cat yeah and he just shoots them on but like he's like we you know it kills whatever 50 a night and they're like it doesn't
Starting point is 02:57:18 even put a dent into our Jesus Christ so anyways when we pull up to this one but it's at night we hope to do a show the van comes up and the lights are on and the guy goes that's a banana rat right there and he's like you know they they just eat vegetation and they're they're totally approachable right just a nuisance you know so we get out he's like just you know approach slowly so that we you don't scare it off you want to get a look at him so we start walking up slowly like four of us yeah from the van and one of the guys as we get like really close i kind of lean in he just takes two fingers and he runs them up my back i was like and then he goes through and i go and then they all looked at me and they're like was that real yeah no
Starting point is 02:58:06 it was it was around here i was terrified you know at jonathan the amazing jonathan's house it's rigged everything is rigged with tricks oh yeah yeah so you go sit at his desk and he's like hey i want to show you something on a computer you go sit at the desk and there's this antique chair it goes up to like it goes up like another five feet it's really cool looking let's just sit there he's like hey let me just stick and he hits this button and the chair just flips back absolutely and you go flat back and there's a cushion there that that gets you and then he had this thing that's cool man he has a painting that uh is of a cow and you hold up a glass to it and milk comes out of it oh and that was cool and then the he's got two ones that scare the shit out of you he's
Starting point is 02:58:49 got the original like chuckie doll and you go over and you're like yeah check out this chuckie doll it's it's original it's from the movie and he's giving you the history and he keeps telling you about and you're kind of looking at it and he goes behind the wall he's got this lever and he pulls it and it just springs out in the eyes pop out and you will shit he framed a spider he said oh i found that in my uh in my pool it's like a spider like this big and it's all furry it's real spider and you're looking at it and he starts telling you the story about the spider and as he's telling it a spider comes down from a string right in front of your face and he's got all these kind of cool things in my favorite part of that is that that's just for the people
Starting point is 02:59:28 in the room yeah i mean that's just for that moment oh yeah with one person yeah you're just doing that for the moment he's just doing it for the moment but he's he's he's he's he's constantly pulling pranks on people and constantly doing things he's constantly doing magic like you go eat lunch with him he'll find a cable and he'll somehow find a way to create a trick out of it and he's i don't know to me it's constantly entertaining and even in doing the dock like he puts his knife through the arm it's the first thing you see in the film and um it's one of those more famous tricks and they were always telling me they're like do you want us to show you how i'm like i i never want to know i'd rather just enjoy the trick how could you resist how could
Starting point is 03:00:06 you resist there was one thing he showed me and i was like oh you got it you know and i i understand how he figured this shit out man he did this for example the thing he comes out on stage with a briefcase and there's a bowling ball right but but he comes out with a briefcase and he opens it and there's a bowling ball in it and then he drops it and and when he drops it you realize oh that's a real bowling ball it's a heavy but he comes out in this slim case you're like how the how the fuck did you do that and what you do is it's all i i wish i didn't know now but he cuts a hole in the back of the suitcase so half the bowling ball is exposed and he walks out with the suitcase facing front so then he places it down and as he places it down he opens it and then the ball comes out
Starting point is 03:00:46 so it's just like shifting the ball as you go through it it's just all slight a hand yeah but i mean like i wish i didn't know when i see these tricks i'm like where do you even start to you know i mean like to conceive of this stuff and and and work i don't even know how you work on it it just seems like it's i don't know i remember watching like those as a kid remember they said like televised copperfield special oh yeah one of the ones that i thought was like so ridiculous to show on television was like he's supposed to made a building disappear yeah the sexual liberty he means to do that but that's why you're watching from how your house you're like yeah can't the camera just be on something else right now yeah and that was yeah well we interviewed
Starting point is 03:01:24 copperfield in the film and i'll tell you he's i know somebody said it's the most expensive property in vegas uh his home and he's a billionaire right so you go over and like the door is like 20 feet big and it opens up and it's the most gorgeous home i've ever been in in my entire life i'm sure you guys have been to like nice homes yeah yeah stars homes but then it's like yeah i never seen anything like this um and the guy was incredibly nice incredibly kind and i don't know it was it was great to hear his perspective too on like what made jonathan great because copperfield's talking about you know he does almost like these disney-esque production value like really high-end things and then jonathan is just kind of like this walmart wd-40 and duct tape
Starting point is 03:02:10 slapping things together and getting just as big as reactions but just kind of like being more makeshift you know yeah yeah just kind of fun but it's so cool man i think the creativity that you see with jonathan's stuff is pulling the razor blades out of his mouth i still don't know how he does it i know that there's a blood capsule in it but he's chewing on a razor blade and then you see him put each one of them in there and then they come out on a string all five and how do you do that i don't know i saw it on youtube but i forget now and i'm sure once you if somebody told you like oh it looked it up because i was listening to rogan he interviewed this magician this famous magician and yeah i mean obviously there's tricks there's
Starting point is 03:02:49 only so many tricks in the world right it's just how you interpret them and how you put your own personality how do you reinvent them but the great thing about jonathan was that in his live performance he would do it but he would fail at it and it was all a success a succession of failures that's why i love watching that's a brilliant everything went wrong let's look up the razor blade because i do remember at the time it's obviously not a real yeah oh fuck i forget how they do it all right you want to do that now i don't know there's got to be a way i remember i went to um i was i was a while it's too long yeah i was on i was in seattle and i went into like a magic store yeah i was like i want to buy something for my kid he's only like three yeah so they're
Starting point is 03:03:32 like well there's just like entry-level thing for kids and it was like you has like a little red ball in it and you can you can basically pick it up and there's like a fake um compartment right so you can show it and then you if you hold the top of the thing a different way you can hide it and then show it again and then hide it right dude i was like this for a three-year-old i'm fucking mesmerized i mean i was doing that all after you know i was like yeah like alone i was like check it out because it feels cool to perform a trick like you feel like you're being an illusionist yeah like it's like you have a secret right and yeah i don't know i mean i i think if i were to get into it i would lose my mind i lose my mind well he taught me like this thing like i and as soon as he
Starting point is 03:04:16 taught it to me i showed my kids where you put your finger through your ear uh she's kind of like that you pull and it looks like your fingers yeah through your ear right so i do it with my pretend to pull it out and you go like that with it and like the first day i came home and showed my kids that they were losing their fucking minds that's how do you do that that is so cool and it's just literally just like manipulating and pulling it yeah it's so fun it's just for the sake of silliness too which i always love it's just frivolity just silliness it's a great escape and i i don't know i'm always enamored by magic i kind of like it well look you guys can can watch it and i really highly encourage you congratulations thank you so much thank you guys for having me
