with y'all's show uh with impractical jokers can't even talk anything about it
you guys have um
joe is not going to be on the show anymore yeah wow for now i guess right yeah
um would did they
ever did they try and think about bringing somebody else in well they asked us
what we wanted to do
and we just thought about like a hundred different permutations for and just
landed on the fact that
we didn't want to replace him yeah because that person would be already shunned
you know like it's
hard to replace it so we just were like let's just uh right now we're bringing
in a guest each
episode to just help out with like the punishment but it's like people that we
know that we're really
psyched and interested to get on ah you know so we've had like eric andre
method man uh jillian bell
uh rob riggle david cross like all these like really cool guests you know um
and like we're booking you
know just and this we just uh we finished season nine the last nine episodes
that we started before
the pandemic so those start airing in uh i don't know when this comes out but
those start airing
june 16th okay and then in two weeks we've been writing season 10 and in two
weeks we start filming
season 10 and we'll do uh for the first time i we shorten the episodes and we're
gonna do 18 because
i want to kind of have six months on six months off to do comedy and stuff so
we're doing 18 episodes
we got 18 guests but then check this out uh they're just in the in the in the
punishment
we do a cold open with them and a couple of interstitials so they're like
threaded through
the episode okay so they're like anchored as the guests but in the middle bits
when we need four
we made it so that we can bring anybody we want at all anyone so the idea at
first was like oh look
we could bring anyone like from a comedian friend to our family to literally
like the thing was we
said the halal guy outside our office yeah and we started doing that like i
brought my barber on
you know we brought like it just so because it's like just a mixed bag you know
yeah so yeah so we
did that and it's been fun you know it's just a different energy and stuff you
know yeah so it's
been good so we start filming that in a couple weeks wow yeah is it hard to
stay motivated with
it as things get keep going that much is it hard to like not that you don't
care about it but is it
what have you learned about that has that been interesting yeah i mean you know
the motivation's
there you know because it's it's our reputation and the show's been on so long
and you know i'm never
gonna i'm not gonna have half ass it you know yeah but um we said we would do
the show until we like
stopped having fun but it's just so much fun yeah you know and and you know our
crew is another 40 50
people that you don't see well we put them on a lot now we put our crew on but
like so it's not just
us us having fun like there are we've been with these people some of them for
10 years so it's like
this family you know so we still have fun man and we you know the the pandemic
made us have to
rethink how we did everything so we did a whole season in a pandemic when we
couldn't even go up to
anybody so that was fun because we had to we're always trying to push and
change and evolve it and
stuff like that so you know so it's it's always a little different each season
like we don't just go
back and do the same bits we did like when people describe the show they go
these you know these
friends they put in the earpiece now to do and say what they're told and if not
you get punished
that's the most simple way to explain the show it is yeah and it is like a
third of the show
yeah and it was a lot of the show when we first started but in the first season
or two but
really if you watch the show that is just one element of it there's so much we
create so many
scenarios and games and situations and like that aren't even beholden to doing
and saying what you
told right right it's just like that's the easiest way to that's the elevator
pitch right like so but
yeah we so we we you know we have fun like like figuring all those things out
yeah yeah are you
worried about not having joe on there you know i was because he's just oh he's
one of a kind he's
one of a kind and he's the funniest dude in the world and and and then like but
it's like you have
a recipe that's working and then you and if you remove a main ingredient so i
we didn't know what
to expect you know but you know because the nature of the show whereas like we
we we are out there
like we're always switching who we're doing it with so nothing felt foreign
because i've been out
there just me and him i've been out there with you just mean i've been out
there alone just me
so in that respect it didn't feel like completely foreign um and then you know
and then we were so
focused on getting the new formula to work and then getting this energy from
these people that came on
as guests that like you know that kind of like filled like a little bit of like
what would be and
you know it took like it's like when you get on stage you know we got there you
know we started
to film and we're like all right let's see how this is gonna be like i don't
know if it's gonna be
you know gloomy of course we miss him you know yeah but then you know you start
laughing and you're
like oh shit i'm laughing i'm laughing this is i had fun today right and then
you're like all right
all right we're still laughing we're still having fun you know um now that's
the barometer i think
and that's always been the barometer i think with you guys's group it seems
like hope you enjoyed that

different choices some guy just brings you one option not this guy two options
