Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

The Georgia Peaches.

You see, this is, uh...

I think the answer is in the, uh, question right here, which is, uh, high school.

Yeah, I'm

totally with you.

I've stayed in haunted hotels.

You can't like Austin has a great one where they have that haunted hotel.

And it's like, you know, we're up nights smoking.

Right.

Yeah.

Well, I'm not going to name a

I did, yeah.

And uh, during the rehearsal everything went smooth, and then once everyone got into the, uh, venue, it was packed.

Must've been about 10,000 people in there.

You know, the Kill Tony is an experience.

Uh, their phones, uh, basically shut down my RF.

And during the rehearsal the, uh, the people who run, uh, MSG, Madison Square Garden, they were like- Uh, is everything gonna be okay? You know, with questions, we're like having him...

He looks great on the screen and everything.

That, that, uh, the, the dead man, it, it's a game show you're doing with it? I don't know exactly what you're doing with it.

It always freaks me out, too, 'cause it just feels like there's something sinister going on there.

Oh, no.

Actually, that's a power town, man.

Like, uh, I was talking to a guy there, and they have all this construction.

I go, "What's going on in the town? Like, what's, what's the problem?" And they're like, "We don't have enough water for all the great shit we wanna do here."

[laughs]

...

in Santa Monica opening his heart to us.

Dave Attell, what do you wanna plug, my man?

Well, I'll be in Vegas at Wise Guys, uh, in about two weeks, and then, uh, I guess the big show for me is with, uh, the amazing Jeff Ross, uh, Bumping Mics at, um, The Stand West.

Yes

... uh, [clears throat] I was gonna ask you this.

Now, how did you feel while you were being zapped? Uh, to be honest, I kinda liked it.

I bet you did.

[laughs]

Uh, the guys, the guys who ma- uh, the producers and all the people who worked on the show were super cool.

And, like, we were out there, like, for nights and nights and nights, all night long, and it was a lot of work.

And, uh, you know, all I can say is that, um, it was a great show for its time.

I don't think at this point, you know, people go like, "You gotta do that show." It's like, I'm too old, my kidneys kicked out.

I'm like, just, like, you know, um, I'm an old man.

So I can't do the show.

favorite stand-ups you're just a state-of-the-art and I listen I default to your material all the time when I put on stuff and to me you have a pure love of it and anytime you you get to or you have to be involved in the in the nuts and bolts it starts to extract the joy from it do you know what I'm saying

Yeah, I think, you know, I kind of know my place in the business.

And there's some guys who like, you know, like guys with way more money than me who like open restaurants.

And that usually kind of goes south pretty quick because you got to be there every day.

You can't just go like, hey, I'll get a cousin to do this.

Or, you know, here's a friend of mine from college that seems to know what he's doing.

You got to be there.

How did you guys end up hanging out, and how many times has he opened for you?
