9 MINS LATER

30:09
Right,
33:08
There it is
33:08
...
33:08
the one that kinda like told me the album, uh, like, you know, to get it.
33:12
And then I just got it, and like I just, I got the tape, and like I thought it was the coolest thing ever.
33:18
It's, it's funny looking back at it now that I bet in so many ways, you know, lyrically, story-wise, it's all brilliant stuff.
33:26
But I mean, they essentially...
33:29
And I like the, I wanna take almost like a guess, shot in the dark at this.

43 MINS LATER

77:00
How do you, like, sum this record up or get somebody to listen to it? Like, if, what are your final thoughts on this record? Your elevator pitch.
118:14
And it takes you just as long to get out,
118:16
win or lose.
118:17
I went to game seven, Sixers, Atlanta Hawks, paid a ridiculous amount of money for me, my girlfriend, and my daughter to go to this game.
118:26
I found out early where they're playing offense in the second half, and it's going to be behind the visitor's bench.
118:33
So I got a few rows behind the visitor's bench.
118:35
And we watched this game.
118:36
It was a tight, close game.
121:26
I mean, it's a thing.
50:33
Colin Quinn.
50:36
Just a sage.
50:38
That's it.
50:39
From the time I got to New York, he was always extremely friendly to me.
50:45
Encouraging.
50:46
One of the people who recommended me for the Comedy Cellar when that came time.
50:54
We were never really close.

26 MINS LATER

77:21
Last name, Kevin Hart.
9:28
[laughs]
9:28
It's a long way up.
9:29
And dust yourself off.
9:30
That's a good time, though.
9:31
All that work for nothing.
9:32
[laughs] There was a good time where Artie, Steve Byrne, and a couple people would, like, dove.
9:38
Their comedy was geared towards getting fucking ass at the end of the night.

22 MINS LATER

GodfreyHOST
31:33
[laughs]
23:49
Oh
23:50
... 22, I guess.
23:51
And I'm like fucking pretty rattled by that.
23:54
I'm like, "That's everything I own.
23:55
I'm broke.
23:56
I have no money." So I go home that night.
23:59
The next day, it's a nighttime flight we're taking.

43 MINS LATER

66:58
Bro
speaker_7UNKNOWN
73:35
The Bonfire, Legion of Skanks, so much more.
73:38
[cheering] [applauding] Thank you.
73:42
Oh, that feels good.
73:43
Man- Yeah ... what a [censored] swingers party this place is, Jim.
73:47
[laughs] I felt genuinely terrible for you up here with those awkward questions.
73:51
I know you're not like that.
73:52
[laughs] Threes- I know, yeah.

16 MINS LATER

90:24
Have you ever been in es- in a escape room before?
45:33
I've heard.
45:34
That came to the show in the form of a video I saw of two, uh...
45:40
What you find out is gay guys.
45:42
It start- on eFucked.
45:43
There was a video, and it was like, you know, whatever, they gave a really funny headline of like, "This is why you don't play in the hood," or whatever.
45:50
And it's two thuggy Black dudes talking shit to each other in a room, and then it just cuts to them having full-blown gay sex and one of them fucking the other one's asshole with a gun.
45:58
And we were like, "Oh, God." And then, uh, for somehow that just became our thing if we lose bets.

9 MINS LATER

speaker_3UNKNOWN
55:31
He was in basketball shorts, man.
103:16
Are we gonna be naned?
103:16
Like I said, there will be a couple years of people being... 'Cause you look at, like, weed, it's, you know, widespread legality of it now, right? Everyone's getting very high.
103:24
The weed's gotten so strong, like, it's like...
103:27
Well, there's that.
103:27
The strength of it will be a concern.
103:29
But I think there's also something to...
103:31
I don't know, I've gone back and forth on that.

59 MINS LATER

162:56
That's what happened.
99:23
A lot of that is they have a chip in their head.
99:25
Well, this guy who killed his mom and Doug Stanhope became friends with, Doug was doing a Zoom Skanks one time episode with us, and he had that guy call in and, uh, you know, we were asking him kind of about what happened and he was, you know, he gave a very compelling story and we were saying goodbye to him.
99:41
He goes, uh, (clears throat) he goes...
99:43
Now, do you remember this? He goes, "I just wanna say, uh, you know, when I was going through all that horrible stuff and the last several years that have been so difficult and terrible and my family hating me and...
99:53
But I still always, man, I listen to you guys and laugh and I just wanna say that I love you guys." And I was like, "Well, I think, (laughs) I think I speak for the group when I say, 'Phew.'"

1 HR 2 MINS LATER

162:29
It's like, "Who's this guy? Is he good? Ah, let's take a chance."
162:32
Right.
162:32
But there are...
43:26
Oh, yeah.
43:27
And a comedian, Julian McCullough, had these passes, four of us.
43:31
It was gonna be me, uh, Nate Bargatze, I'm trying to remember.
43:36
Uh, Dave Smith.
43:37
[laughs] Yeah, it was Dave Smith and Julian McCullough.
43:40
And I'd auditioned for a TV show the morning of that, and it was the first audition I ever did that it went well, [laughs] went really well, and I got it.
43:50
I got the, the, the part.

31 MINS LATER

75:14
Mm-hmm.
19:26
What?
19:27
Hold on.
19:27
I, I know you've told this story a million times, but can you please tell us that story?
23:07
Um, other than that one-
23:09
That is crazy, though, to leave like a, I'm presuming a slightly fucked up household and just spy Elmo-
speaker_6OTHER
15:36
They, they sit there and shake the bed really hard to try to get you to fuck, so it's like-
15:40
Yeah, it doesn't necessarily matter what they're doing in the bed.
15:43
It was the fact that there was other people in there facilitating the motions.
15:48
[laughs]

1 HR 26 MINS LATER

102:09
It has to be.
102:10
That was like coming out of a stupor when you said that.
102:12
"I was hit by an 18-wheeler on a motorcycle." Oh, all right.
102:16
You're doing great then.
34:16
[laughs]
34:16
Like, you know, saying it's such a problem.
34:18
And the funny of that to me when he was telling that joke was he was opening for me in Houston a million years ago at the Laugh Stop, and I, uh, and on the way to the show the first night, I was like, "Yeah, I don't know if it's my allergies or what, but, like, I cannot breathe." And I was talking, you know, crazy.
34:34
And Nate was just like, "Afrin, buddy." And I was like, "I've never heard..." And then the guy who was driving us was like, "You never heard of Afrin? Oh, it's great." And they took me to a CVS, and I've never stopped taking Afrin since that day.

10 MINS LATER

45:10
Yeah.
45:10
You know? It's like y- you kinda are who you are.
45:13
And, like, uh, like, my complaints in place.
45:16
You know, I've been to South A- the South African festivals.
