Joe Rogan Podcast, check it out.
The Joe Rogan Experience.
Train by day, Joe Rogan Podcast by night, all day.
What's happening, brother? We're up and rolling.
Thanks for having me.
Pleasure to meet you, finally.
I know. I'm excited to be here.
You're one of my favorite guys.
Really? Thank you.
Yeah, there's this group of guys that are coming up that are so good right now.
I feel like this is a great time for, like, fresh, up-and-coming comedy talent.
It's like there's so many guys who've been doing comedy, like, 15-plus years
who are just fucking starting to crack.
Yeah, our group is, like, really, you know, my closest friends,
they work their ass off, so that makes me work my ass off.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love it.
I love it, too. That's so important.
We were talking about Shane Gillis.
Shane Gillis has this fucking bit last night about George Washington that's so
good.
It's so good.
Like, I was watching, I was going, God damn, this is great.
Because it's, like, a perfect bit that combines his love of history
with just, like, Shane, you know, like, the way he acts things out.
I don't want to give up any of it up.
It's so fucking funny.
There's nothing worse than trying to paraphrase another comic's bit
that they're working on, and then they're like,
why did you do that? You made my bit unfunny?
I would ruin it, and I'd give it away.
And on top of that, it's, like, it's very physical.
Like, you have to see it if you see it.
He's a rare combination of a great joke writer, but also a great performer.
Yeah.
I mean, when he did Trump speed dating in that sketch, that was, like,
I was, like, I don't like Trump impressions.
I think they're kind of an easy impression.
Yeah.
And I was, like, that's a great Trump impression.
It's amazing, but with great lines.
That's what I mean.
Impressions, I don't like when people write off impressions,
because impressions crack me up if they have good writing.
Right, right.
That's the thing.
It's, like, it's, like, crowd work.
Like, you get, like, an extra bump off the fact that it's all happening live.
Of course.
Like, whoa, this is crazy.
But if someone's good with it and they've got good lines, it's fun to watch.
Yeah, nothing is, that's a mistake a lot of comics make,
which are, like, this is hack, or it's, like, nothing is inherently hack.
Right.
You know, things can be, like, I love, like, Kyle Dunnigan's impressions.
I love his Bill Maher impression.
I love, like, I think if you nail it in a unique way that hasn't been nailed.
Yeah.
That's what Shane did with Trump.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
To have Trump win in the sketch is funny.
Yes.
Because if you just had, like, women being, like, you suck, that's not funny.
Right.
But the fact that Trump in the sketch is, like, just calling them, like,
the way he turns on them, it's perfect.
As soon as they don't like him anymore.
But because it's Trump.
You nailed Trump.
That's what he does.
Yeah, that's what he does.
And also, Shane actually likes Trump.
Like, he gets a kick out of Trump, so it's, like, it makes it fun.
Well, it's hard to impersonate people that you don't like, right?
Right.
It's, like, kind of, like, roasting someone you don't like.
It's just weird.
Right, right, right.
Yeah, the roasting thing is weird.
I mean, when I first went back to the comedy store in 2014,
that was the first time I ever saw Roast Battle,
and I was, like, yikes.
Like, these fucking people go hard in the pain at each other.
It used to be, like, you look weird.
Now it's, like, this guy got raped in seventh grade.
Right.
And you're, like, that's the joke?
Your wife and kids left you.
You're, like, whoa, hey.
I saw one where the guy's, like, his wife had a miscarriage.
And I'm, like, she's here.
Jesus Christ.
Can you imagine being that wife?
She's, like, I didn't sign up for this shit.
Exactly.
I had to tell this to a comic the other day.
He brought this girl as a date,
and he was talking about all the stuff they did.
And I go, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude.
You just started dating her.
And you're talking about her blowing you on stage.
And then she has to see all these people.
Yeah.
I'm, like, don't do that.
Not the best intro.
It's not.
He just started dating her.
Yeah.
Like, this is terrible advice.
There's some people that, like, want to be a part of your act,
and there's other people that are, like, can you not?
Yeah.
Can you give it a few months?
Yeah, most people don't want to be a part of your act.
There was a roast joke.
Dina Hashem, who's a really funny comic, great writer,
and she opens for me a lot on the road,
and she did a roast against this guy, Dave Kinney,
who's really funny, and they were roasting each other.
And she had the most savage line I've ever heard in a roast.
His mom died in a car crash, in a motorcycle crash.
And she goes, Dave lives the way his mom died.
An unrecognizable road feature.
You can't knock the structure, though.
It's a great joke.
It's a great joke, but I'm like...
It's a great joke.
But that's fucking harsh.
That's harsh.
That's what I mean.
Like, did you say...
I thought, like, I'm expecting people to tell me I have one eyebrow.
Not, like, you know...
Well, it's like everything else, right?
Things just ramp up.
Yeah.
Like, you know, they escalate.
You know?
It's like everything else in the world.
It just keeps getting more complex and harder and more biting,
and cars get faster, phones work quicker, like, everything...
Oh, what you jerked off to as a kid is different than what I jerked off to,
and then versus someone 10 years younger than me, what they jerked off to.
Everything ramps up to a point where you're like,
this is...
Is this good?
Probably not.
Well, porn for kids is a real problem,
because they get access to it almost immediately.
Like, 10-year-olds get phones.
Yeah.
So they're immediately watching people fuck.
I know.
Yeah.
It's pretty intense.
I don't even go through my kids' phones, like, to look at their history.
Why would you want to?
It's not going to be good.
They ask me questions sometimes, though, and I'm like,
oh, Jesus Christ.
What kind of questions?
Well, they ask me questions about me, which is a problem,
because, like, kids from school, like, talk to them about stuff.
So they ask me questions about drugs,
which is interesting to talk to a 14-year-old about drugs.
But you're, like, a responsible drug user.
Well, I say, first of all, don't do anything that's dangerous and addictive.
Like, they're not worth it.
You know, I talk, like, there's all these different drugs
that can literally ruin the rest of your life.
And then there's stuff like pot.
You know, it's like, it's not good for you because you have a growing mind.
Like, your mind is developing.
Like, you shouldn't do anything until you're, like, 25, really.
But that's unrealistic.
Isn't that weird that renting a car is 25 and everything,
like, drinking alcohol, like, people say lower the drinking age.
Like, 21, first off, it's not hard to get drunk in this country.
Right.
If you're 18.
You can figure it out.
Does anybody ever really get drunk at 21?
That's like, does anybody get married and they're virgins?
Some people.
Some people.
But it's probably the same amount that get drunk for the first time at 21.
Those people are really prioritizing other shit.
That's, I mean, to wait to get married, to fuck, is pretty bold.
I know a guy who did it.
Really?
Yeah, he was, like, 26 or 27, too.
And I'm pretty sure he's gay.
Damn.
That explains it.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
Because you want to, I mean, you want to take it for a test drive.
I just don't get it.
He's not a bad looking guy, either.
It's like, I don't know.
Maybe he's, like, fully religious and that's really what it is.
People like that who are fully religious and the amount of guilt associated
with it.
I had a friend who was, like, had these insane fears where he would say things
like,
I'm scared I'm going to get me too'd.
And I was like, you're a virgin.
That's hilarious.
You're not getting, no, how can you, you physically can't be me too'd.
You've done nothing that's me too-able.
You know what's funny to me is when someone else gets me too'd, you see the
fear in the
tweets of the people that are coming out against that person.
Like what?
You just see the, like, you know there's certain people when they virtue signal,
you're like,
bro, let me look in your closet.
Let me, you're going so hard against this person when you don't even know
exactly what happened.
You'll see your virgin friend in there.
You'll see skankins.
Yeah, no, there's a lot of, it's true.
I mean, the people that are loudest, I mean, Cosby, right?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
He was the guy yelling at everybody for doing dirty material about filth.
Yeah.
Meanwhile, he's raping everybody.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like any time a comic, so you're like, you judge a comic's character based
on the content
of their material.
It's like, you're missing the big picture.
Well, it's like the only time when the material is supposed to actually truly
represent how that
person feels about a subject.
Right.
Like, you never see a Quentin Tarantino movie and go, oh, he supports murder.
But he got shit.
I mean, he definitely got shit for stuff.
I mean, I don't think deservedly so, but he's definitely, movies, there's
always a slight
difference because you're playing a character.
Right.
I do think it's hilarious that he cast himself to do the dead N-word storage
character in
the movie.
Oh, yeah.
In Pulp Fiction.
That would have been weird as hell if you had people reading for that part.
Yeah.
He's like, I have one C in a movie.
What do you do?
I just say the N-word 400 times.
It didn't make sense why he was saying it the way he was saying it.
And to Samuel L. Jackson, I'm like, I wouldn't have the balls in any scenario.
There's no world where I could pull this off.
So, you know, but great movie.
I mean, Tarantino's body of work is insane.
It's as good as anybody ever.
Jackie Brown is the most underrated one.
I always said, I think it's such a great movie.
It's a great movie.
It's so great soundtrack.
He doesn't have a bad one.
He doesn't have one movie where I didn't like it.
Yeah.
He's one of the best.
It's like Tarantino, the Coen brothers.
I mean, like who can top?
Obviously, like there's Scorsese a little older, but.
Yeah.
I mean, I grew up loving Woody Allen and that's a tough, as a Jew from New York,
that's a tough
one to swallow right there.
It is now.
Try re-watching Manhattan.
And if you're comfortable watching it, you're probably a pedophile, you know?
I don't remember Manhattan.
It's incredible, but it's fucking weird.
What year was that?
It's in the 70s.
It's black and white.
My friend Ronan Hirshberg has a great line about that movie where he said it's
basically
a romantic comedy for pedophiles because the end of the movie is not like I
fucked up,
I dated a high school girl.
It's that he's sad that it didn't work out.
Really?
Yeah.
I might not have ever seen it.
Oh, you know what?
I definitely didn't see it.
It's, I mean, it's.
So she's in high school?
She's a, get this.
She's 18 at Dalton, which is where Jeffrey Epstein taught.
And this is the 70s.
That's when he taught there.
Allen and Epstein are, this is my, I mean, it's a little weird, right?
Yeah.
I mean, here's the fucked up part, though.
The opening is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in a movie.
It's just his, like, love letter to New York.
It's gorgeous.
And I grew up, like, worshipping Woody Allen.
He's done some weird shit.
He definitely has.
Yeah.
I mean, there's no doubt about it.
He married his stepdaughter.
I mean, that enough.
That alone is not good.
Yeah.
No.
I mean, that's crazy.
And then there's allegations from the other kids.
Yeah.
Were they coached?
Were they not?
I don't know.
The one kid.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
I don't know.
But it's enough to go.
It's enough to be bummed.
Yeah.
It really bummed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You ever listen to his stand-up, his old stand-up?
It's brilliant.
It's brilliant.
He was a great.
