This week on clown college

2
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:09,520
I think I'd be Japanese dude because they kind of they're kind of like the white Asian

3
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:14,600
I've heard this comparison before the white Asian they practiced imperialism and shit

4
00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:21,580
They did some brutal things like in Nanking some real fucked up shit if you're gonna want me how many people did he kill?

5
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,120
Nanking is a place

6
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,200

7
00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:28,200
Yeah, the city in China, okay

8
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,480
And we need to talk about something more serious

9
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,760
If sci-fi is not on a show he needs to stay his ass out of the gray room exactly

10
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:37,760

Comedians throughout different stages of their comedy career no matter if they're open micers headliners or traveling comedians

17 year old rednecks driving that kind of shit

22
00:01:37,700 --> 00:01:41,380
I'll never forget I saw a truck with like a galaxy wrap on it

23
00:01:41,380 --> 00:01:43,860
You know what I mean? It looked like space

27
00:02:03,660 --> 00:02:07,380
Okay, we're on a beach trip black people do that too. They were

00:02:49,420 --> 00:02:53,120
We did the macho man, you know where he had the cut string

00:03:48,300 --> 00:03:55,340
That's so fucking crazy. Yeah, I'm just glad like it wasn't a red face situation. There was no makeup involved

49
00:03:55,340 --> 00:04:02,780

00:10:55,900 --> 00:10:59,000

That is and yeah doing good shit. I mean I realized I could hold fucking guinea pigs now, too

145
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,600
I took another step up. Where did you find where'd you encounter a guinea pig?

146
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,560
My sister she put her guinea pig on me randomly. I was like awesome

147
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:58,080
She want to hold cats now and they could hold this and I did hold it. You pet it. Yeah, I petted it

148
00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:02,600
Yeah, and then after that as a dude waiting for me on the corner with big-ass blood

149
00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:04,400
He's like you want some of this shit? No, I'm like

150
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:10,480

151
00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:13,200
Don't go over 60. What the fuck

152
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:20,800

00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:33,520
Good uh-huh pass self-control. Good job

156
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:38,400
Yeah, I'm busy right now and it might have had some in it. Yeah, I don't know what the hell going on

157
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,400
It's just the best stuff you'll get man

158
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:48,600
Then I'd be a whole different man. It's the best crack in northern Alabama. Yeah, fuck crack

159
00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:53,320
I don't want I don't want to accidentally do some meth man. We already got one person accidentally did

160
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,320
For joke purposes yes

161
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:02,080
No, I mean you're right. Well, I don't know if it was meth or bath salts

162
00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:06,280
It could have been either. Yeah, it could have been either. You know, take your pick

163
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,400
Yeah, when you're that far like getting fucked up. It doesn't matter me

164
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:16,620
Yeah, cuz you just when you just want a little cocaine, but that was years ago 10 10 some plus years ago

165
00:13:16,620 --> 00:13:18,440
That's fine. Well, that's cool, man

166
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:23,580
But when you want to just do a blast, you know, you don't want to be up for you know, 16 hours

167
00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,640
Yeah, I'll for one line

168
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:32,040
So I don't know what it was but it was it was something but I feel like I feel like crack could probably teach you

169
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:38,920
Things, you know, but crack is like you got to do it too much and then you're smoking that much of that harsh shit

170
00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:42,800
You're gonna smoke crack and then you're gonna be want to get high in the next 20 minutes

171
00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,680
Okay, so if you're addicted to crack, how do you die?

172
00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:50,120
Does the crack kill you or is it just like the side effects not eating or no?

173
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:56,040
Joomba I think he died of like heart stuff and oh you'd be hard. Yeah heart related and things like that

174
00:13:56,040 --> 00:14:01,720
Yeah, it's gonna be anything that pumps your heart that fast and get you going like that

175
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:07,800
Yeah, crack has do they live it's not like they die young, you know, it's not that like they die at 50

176
00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,320
They're here for a good time

177
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,640
65 year old cracker. Yeah, that's a good life on

178
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,640
You can make it to 65. You can definitely make it 65

179
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:25,600
Do you think there's people in like high-level white-collar jobs in corporate America that like?

180
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,040
recreationally smoke crack without a doubt

181
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:34,000
But like what do you think is who's like the most famous or like who makes the most?

182
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:38,640
Is there a level where you have to give up the crack to get farther?

183
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:45,480
Well with crack once you do it, it doesn't matter how rich or whatever you are. You want crack. Yeah, I mean

184
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,200
Like heroin you want you want to do heroin. It doesn't matter how

185
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:53,720
You just act erratic on crack sometimes

186
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:55,720
Oh, sometimes you're really happy

187
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,440
Yeah, my boy's dad was uh

188
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:02,920
He dibbled and dabbled. I don't know if it was cracker if he just did coke

189
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:07,360
But yeah, you'd always know when we go over there and be like, oh shit

190
00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:10,600
He ain't had none in a minute or he had the money to get it now

191
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:15,400
We about to hear kick us out but get the fuck out of here. Dang. Dang scared. I'll be on my bike

192
00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:18,240
right away

193
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,760
But then when he had it was the best dude in the world and then when I got older I was standing a little bit

194
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:27,320
Well, I give him I give him 20 he but see that's why fuck with you big bone crusher

195
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,600
Bone crusher

196
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:35,400
Their boss crush come here here I was best friend after that

197
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,600
That's my road though

198
00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:45,400
Hey good times. Hey, you seem to know a lot of crackheads man. Yeah people smoke crack. Yeah, they do

199
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:51,240
I mean, I don't know any like now in here like in this in Huntsville

200
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:53,680
but like where I grow up, you know, it's just like your

201
00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:58,920
Family people's uh, your friends family. You know, there's just around

202
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,440
And now I think it's meth

203
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:07,280
Yeah, I think cuz it's like easy to get high longer and all that shit get a good little meth

204
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:13,400
I think some people do start doing meth because they think it's coke or people are telling them that it is coke

205
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:18,920
It could be it looks the same is like ice or whatever cuz they snort that and then they get addicted to meth

206
00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:23,760
But they thought it was coke. I think ice is something different though. I mean, it's still met me

207
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:28,440
It's still meth, but there's like different forms of it. I believe because ice water

208
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:30,720
vapor

209
00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,720
Smoking crack is the meth airbender

210
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,480
Shit versus heroin

211
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,120
Oh

212
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:46,880
Meth was fuck him up heroin. They're too chill. They're too crack. You think crack nation?

213
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:53,040
Oh crack nation. They're the OGs though. You know, I'm saying they got some fucking machinery. You never thought of yeah

214
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,220
There's some scary shit man resourceful shoot CDs at you and shit

215
00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,560
The general walk away

216
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,660
Guys, they stole all your crack and you're gonna have to get it back

217
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:09,200
Fucking next hour. They're gonna have all that shit back. You're gonna tear everything up

218
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,360
Yeah, they're gonna get that shit if you get enough crackers together

219
00:17:12,360 --> 00:17:14,840
They'll build a spaceship if a lot of crap is on the fuck

220
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:20,200
Yeah, if you get enough of them together, they would absolutely accomplish this you can build a whole think about this when we're thinking about

221
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:21,880
What we need in this country?

222
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,880
Yeah, yeah. Yeah

223
00:17:24,360 --> 00:17:28,840
If you want if you if you if you good and you like know some crackers

224
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:33,160
They will get you the best shit like now I couldn't imagine all the technology they would have they steal it

225
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,560
But we get hunter Biden. Let's elect him dude

226
00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:42,280
I heard he was dabbling if he knew any secrets that motherfucker was telling every prostitute that he fucked

227
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:47,600
You just know what he was telling prostitutes the craziest thing like a $75 hooker. Yeah

228
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,640
Exactly. She knows all these secret

229
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,640
She knows more than general

230
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,080
And she just gets fucked like

231
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:11,920
Yeah, we're posting they North Korea in 2025 you got the 10-year plan that was so

232
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,200
Lay was that late late. Yeah

233
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:25,320
It's not even the right sound

234
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:31,600
That's not you hear it in your headphones, I know but I just my words are weird one

235
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:36,560
Did you ever have to take the hearing test? Yeah in elementary school with the headphones

236
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:42,840
I feel like Brandon failed but the nurse wasn't paying attention. Yeah, we were talking about that the other day

237
00:18:42,840 --> 00:18:48,160
You do have hearing problems, right? Yeah. I know I do I did too. I can't hear shit. Yeah, I can't hear man

238
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:53,360
I can see pretty good. I can't hear you don't wear any contact. No, you wear contact. No

239
00:18:53,360 --> 00:18:58,480
I gotta get my eyes checked though, man. It's been a while. Can you see a shit blurry?

240
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,680
Sometimes it'd be blurry. I did that for I literally

241
00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,320
Cuz I was supposed to wear glasses and I couldn't put contacts in at first

242
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:12,800
So like until I was probably 27, I didn't wear any glasses unless I like had to shoot

243
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:18,580
for qualifying or something like that and then uh, and then I just start putting contacts

244
00:19:18,580 --> 00:19:23,600
I'm like damn this is so much better. I can see shit. Yeah, I could always be like this just

245
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,980
Sacrificing your vision because you don't want to look lame. Yeah, I used to have glasses though

246
00:19:29,980 --> 00:19:35,280
But I remember I would always lose them and then whenever I put them on people like man, you look even more special

247
00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,280
So I like fuck that

248
00:19:37,600 --> 00:19:41,980
Yeah, well, I imagine Brandon you had like the goggles with the strap

249
00:19:41,980 --> 00:19:50,380
That was when I played basketball. When he was wrestling. That's when I played basketball like literally. You did have that?

250
00:19:50,380 --> 00:19:53,940
Yeah for basketball. He did have it. When I played basketball cuz I thought that was cool

251
00:19:54,100 --> 00:19:58,460
That's who I was trying to be like. Let me try to get the sky hook. You play for the school?

252
00:19:58,700 --> 00:20:01,820
My school? No, man. They always made me the water boy. Mm-hmm

253
00:20:01,820 --> 00:20:04,300
And then one time they all got together and like Brandon look man

254
00:20:04,420 --> 00:20:09,980
Some people are just meant to be something and you are meant to be a water boy. What kind of bullshit is that?

255
00:20:09,980 --> 00:20:11,980
Did they make a movie about this?

256
00:20:11,980 --> 00:20:15,420
No, man. That's what they did. I was thinking water boy

257
00:20:15,660 --> 00:20:21,980
No, man, they literally said you are the best water boy ever dude. I'm just handing you water. What the fuck?

258
00:20:22,220 --> 00:20:24,220
Yeah, when I was trying to be on the team

259
00:20:24,620 --> 00:20:29,980
And then I got on a real team for a recreational park and that shit was horrible

260
00:20:30,780 --> 00:20:34,540
That was embarrassing. I was fat. They made me wear these tight ass like

261
00:20:34,540 --> 00:20:39,980
Shorts because they didn't have a bigger size and then like it would just be going around and shit

262
00:20:39,980 --> 00:20:45,740
I'd be doing this and trying to shoot people be blocking my shot because I was like five feet five or five four

263
00:20:46,140 --> 00:20:50,380
They six foot and it was so bad. Some of the teammates would be crying and shit, man

264
00:20:51,260 --> 00:20:57,500
Crying like crying. Yeah, that's not bad. They were like one of the dudes. He was like I can't do this shit no more

265
00:20:57,500 --> 00:21:01,500
I was like just hang in there, bruh. I can't do it. How old are you? I can't do it anymore

266
00:21:02,140 --> 00:21:03,900
We're like 13

267
00:21:03,900 --> 00:21:06,140
This week's featured comedian

268
00:21:07,900 --> 00:21:14,060
It's a hard being a lesbian in the south y'all because they make all sorts of assumptions about us based on how we look

269
00:21:14,860 --> 00:21:21,260
For example, my wife is more feminine than I am so they assume that i'm the god whatever the fuck that means

270
00:21:21,820 --> 00:21:24,140
So i'm like, all right, let's test your theory for a second

271
00:21:24,700 --> 00:21:30,940
Uh, I hold a purse when we go shopping. I open doors for her. I like sports more than she does

272
00:21:30,940 --> 00:21:33,980
But y'all she's way more into porn and motorboating

273
00:21:36,380 --> 00:21:38,620
Is just killing all the bugs it don't hold up

274
00:21:44,060 --> 00:21:46,060
She's 15 years younger than I am

275
00:21:50,460 --> 00:21:55,100
But in Alabama that really messes with them y'all they look at us all sideways like mother

276
00:21:55,100 --> 00:21:59,100
Oh

277
00:22:02,140 --> 00:22:05,740
All I know is they're way more comfortable me kissing her when they think i'm her sister

278
00:22:13,500 --> 00:22:15,660
I was trying to listen for that static. I was like

279
00:22:18,460 --> 00:22:20,460
Yeah, I don't hear any static it's good

280
00:22:20,460 --> 00:22:25,100
Perfect, you guys did a good job big producer extraordinaire over there. Yeah, hold up man

Brennan gets key happy on there. No, he he wants to plow whenever it's his

284
00:22:37,500 --> 00:22:39,500

00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:20,720
Uh sci-fis. It was all black showing kim

306
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,000
And uh

307
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:29,440
Was it that I don't know which one but I know I I thought there was an intermission

308
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:35,680
So I walked outside to smoke a cigarette and I came back and kim was on stage and you could hear the wall shaking

309
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,740
From the outside as you walk in i'm like what's happening? Kim was in there murdering

310
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:48,640
Like tearing that fucking place down kills kills. I think I saw your first ever headline set at shenanigans

311
00:24:48,800 --> 00:24:54,320
It was there right? Yeah. Yeah. I remember something I did like a full 45. That was that and that was this

312
00:24:55,120 --> 00:24:59,520
That was I want to say july something like that. Yeah. Okay

313
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:02,960
That was full 45. We got big comedians in here now

314
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,960
Yeah

315
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,440
Yeah, let's combine don't have 45

316
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,080
So that's great

317
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:16,560
So how you doing kepp i'm doing great i'm doing great. Thanks so much for having me on and for cooking

318
00:25:17,360 --> 00:25:19,360
I'm just gonna spill the tea here

319
00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:21,760
But this dude can cook

320
00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:27,360
Hell yeah, i'll do every week. Oh, well, i'm glad you like that. I'm glad you like that

321
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,240
so so uh kim you do a lot of um,

322
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,920
Um, like uh shows around huntsfield. It's not just stand-up

323
00:25:34,460 --> 00:25:41,040
Improv which uh are hilarious. I hear always good, uh things about the improv set the what the drag shows

324
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:42,560
Is that what they call it?

325
00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,400
Well, it depends on which version yeah, yeah, there's we do a lot of shows

326
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:51,440
But instead of just doing regular drag shows we do drag as a component within shows

327
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:55,760
Okay, okay because you can catch regular drag shows everywhere now

328
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,520
and so

329
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,760
My wife jessica it was shout out was her that was like, okay

330
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:06,480
We like doing drag and we want to support that community, but we're not doing what everybody else is doing

331
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:10,960
So like last night we had drag family feud and love it next

332
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,920
Two weeks from now. We're gonna have a drag show

333
00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:19,520
A murder mystery and that'll be the second one actually had one before and it sold out and it was great

334
00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:24,560
So like you play they play the roles and the audience has to pick who oh, so they do drag numbers

335
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:30,640
So they're earning their tips and performing drag but then jessica actually writes the whole script and everything

336
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:32,640
She writes the entire murder mystery

337
00:26:33,120 --> 00:26:34,960
and um has uh

338
00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:40,080
We do a who done it and the audience takes notes and interacts with the performers to figure it out

339
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,080
So get your tickets on schoolhouse.com because it's gonna sell out

340
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:47,840
Yeah, and I want to tell you because i've everything i've shown my friends

341
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:53,200
Uh, they all love it like the perv bingo like I think people would love to come to these shows

342
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:58,080
Uh, what else you got you got perv bingo. Yeah, and that's uh, just i'm not correcting you

343
00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:02,400
But so they know what to look for is bingo perv bingo perv. Okay, what's funny is like everybody says it

344
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,760
If you want to be the perv first and not play the games whatever

345
00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:13,280
But um, yeah, it's like an adult game night 18 and up because uh, it's not for the faint of heart

346
00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:16,400
But yeah, it's we jessica and I make up

347
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:22,640
Most of our shows that are end up being big hits are made up when we're bored and need to fill a spot on the calendar

348
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,960
And we're just like, all right. What can we come up with here? I love it and that's what we do

349
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:33,120
So like that's that's has been one of our biggest shows and continues to grow. So that's really fun

350
00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:39,920
Okay, and um, you do a lot of improv there. Do you do you perform the improv? I don't as much anymore

351
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,480
um, I I am the

352
00:27:43,120 --> 00:27:48,080
referee and the host for improv thunderdome and so I basically

353
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:53,360
Introduce and run the games and such and then I play with them on stage at the end when we do

354
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,840
A game called pocket lines and freeze tag

355
00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,400
Um, but then I don't perform very much of the improv anymore

356
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:06,240
It's just like I like improv and I have a lot of respect for the very talented people

357
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:11,920
We have doing it there and honestly, i'd rather kind of be on the production end and let them shine

358
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:18,080
Because they are so good at it. I love that. I got that same mindset. That's why I got these guys

359
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,720
Yeah, but uh, nobody else is doing those type of shows in mtville not not much if at all yeah

360
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:31,440
I'm shocked at like shenanigans is a genuinely cool spot

361
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:38,320
You can go have a drink get some snacks watch a good comedy show a good improv show audience involvement

362
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:45,200
I was looking forward to uh, justin ledlow show the player you that it's like interactive improv where the audience gets involved

363
00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,280
He was telling me that's dope man. That's dope

364
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,480
Yeah, and audience love audiences love to be involved, right?

365
00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:56,160
Yeah, when you do that, you just bring you know, you really they're really happy whenever they leave a shenanigan

366
00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,640
Well one of the speaking of justin show

367
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:00,720
Let me just knock this around

368
00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:05,220
Speaking of justin show it we had the postponement because it's during the ice apocalypse

369
00:29:05,220 --> 00:29:07,060
That we had

370
00:29:07,060 --> 00:29:13,780
But he did like a preview of that on the last comedy test kitchen and I can explain that if you want but

371
00:29:14,260 --> 00:29:18,020
um, and the game was that he left the room

372
00:29:18,580 --> 00:29:25,380
Gave a random audience member a pool noodle and then got a suggestion from the audience and the suggestion was you know in the

373
00:29:25,700 --> 00:29:30,740
In the process of this other thing that he's doing which was to kind of to deliver an address

374
00:29:30,740 --> 00:29:36,580
What thing can we whack him with a pool noodle pool noodle every time he does?

375
00:29:36,580 --> 00:29:40,180
And so the audience said every time he puts his hands like straight down at his sides

376
00:29:40,900 --> 00:29:43,540
And but he doesn't know what he's doing to get whacked

377
00:29:44,100 --> 00:29:49,060
Right, so he comes back in and he starts doing his thing and this guy and it's funny because the guy

378
00:29:49,540 --> 00:29:52,580
Had a messed up leg. So he's on one of those scooters knee scooters

379
00:29:53,060 --> 00:29:56,580
And he's up there on stage knee scooter just like this with a pool noodle

380
00:29:56,820 --> 00:29:59,220
And then every time justin put his arms out he whacked

381
00:29:59,220 --> 00:30:03,700
And just by the end justin was traumatized. He's like what am I doing?

382
00:30:04,500 --> 00:30:08,500
But it was hilarious and the audience loved it and that's just a little taste of the kind of stuff

383
00:30:08,500 --> 00:30:13,720
They're gonna do but that's been rescheduled to march. I believe i want to say march 15th, but huntsvillelives.com

394
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:15,080
Yep shenanigans comedy theater. Yeah, it'll all be up there

395
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,200
whenever um

396
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,640
I just forgot what I was about to ask you. No, but I know I don't know so

397
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,840
You're a hilarious stand-up comedian and we had a show there for the newbies that you put on for us. Thank you

398
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,560
All the new comics we love it. The comics are talking about it. That's that's really good stuff

399
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:38,520
And what was your joke about my god? Oh my gosh about jason because we murdered it whenever we tried to say it on it

400
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:44,280
All right. So the way that story goes is i'm in the booth. I am not hosting i'm not performing

401
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:48,600
I'm not doing anything we just that again. This was me and jessica coming up with this show concept

402
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:55,160
And so the show concept is that the host gets roasted at the end each of the new comics gets a chance to roast the host

403
00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,960
Then the host goes back and roasts all the new comics

404
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:03,960
I'm sitting over there in the booth and my good friend. I love him to death. His name is jason minter

405
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:09,400
And he was a new comic on the show and so then he insults me

406
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:15,880
He starts roasting me saying I look like I ate tig notaro and fortune feet or whatever nice fat joke

407
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:21,080
But and so i'm like, oh wait a minute here. I'm catching shrapnel over here. What's that about?

408
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:26,280
So I just waited my turn and then whenever jonathan started roasting people he got to jason

409
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:33,000
Now to give you some context jason is bald, but he is a ginger. So he has a very red

410
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,280
Beard and a complexion very similar to mine

411
00:32:36,280 --> 00:32:41,560
And so when it got to there and jonathan was about to move on I said hold up a second

412
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:43,960
I get to roast jason if he roasted me

413
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:48,200
So I just said that jason looked like I started shaving my pussy and stopped

414
00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,680
Murder murder, here's the best joke of the night. Oh, yeah

415
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,640
It was one by four. I mean you hurt everybody

416
00:32:57,160 --> 00:33:01,960
It looks so fucking funny. I could just sit there and take it. Yeah, you gotta hit him back. Who does he think he is?

417
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,400
I was standing right next to him on stage and he went

418
00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,400
oh

419
00:33:07,400 --> 00:33:11,240
He was taking a bath his pearls jason's gay, too, by the way

420
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:17,560
Just to add more context to the I I couldn't believe he only started in november really

421
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,600
Well, not to pat myself on the back or anything, but

422
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,480
He came through my comedy class

423
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,200
Oh, yeah, and you do teach comedy classes and improv classes and sketch writing

424
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,640
Correct. All of those are taught there. I personally teach the stand-up

425
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,800
Okay, and I was teaching the improv class, but now we've passed that off to

426
00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:41,960
Another person actually two guys matthew carter and ben bowden teach the improv. Okay. Okay

427
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,880
and then kb singer is teaching our sketch classes and

428
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,400
We had the guy we had a guy yesterday

429
00:33:50,040 --> 00:33:53,160
Who are you guys familiar with kian peel? Oh, yeah

430
00:33:53,160 --> 00:34:01,000
I love it. All right. So, you know the substitute teacher sketch the one with a ron. Yeah, balaki. Yep

431
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:06,680
The guy jack welling the guy that wrote that sketch taught classes at shenanigans yesterday

432
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:13,880
That's dope. His name's rich talarico. I heard I heard y'all. What'd you say? His name was rich talarico rich talarico. Yeah

433
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:22,120
But he's he was a big time writer on sketch or kian peel starting out live tonight show and he's teaching at shenanigans

434
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,440
So we need to go to one of those. Yeah

435
00:34:25,240 --> 00:34:29,400
When I first started actually I messaged ty funny because I found his instagram

436
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:34,680
I saw he's doing huntsville or comedy in huntsville. And I was like, what should I do? You know, i'm trying to get into this

437
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,880
He's just sent me the link to the stand-up class at shenanigans

438
00:34:37,960 --> 00:34:42,280
I was gonna sign up for it, but all the spots were taken for that specific like go around

439
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:46,440
You got to get in there quick folks. Yeah, if you want to get a spot you better you just

440
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,920
i'm telling you jason killed he murdered and uh

441
00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,280
Uh only been doing it since november and this was in december

442
00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:59,720
Right. No, he he took the class. He took the first round. So he's been doing it about

443
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:07,240
Six seven months, maybe still extremely, uh short and my friends who came they were like, oh, we love that guy

444
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:13,260
Funny, so if you want to be good in a relatively short time, uh, go to class that's shenanigans

445
00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:15,800
Those tickets are high

446
00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:23,400
Uh, oh, yeah, so I was watching, uh a podcast you did about four years ago with scott

447
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,200
called, uh

448
00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:32,120
Oh, oh, okay. Yeah now I remember go ahead show huntsville is what it was called. Oh was it right?

449
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,480
No, that's not it. But it's something like that

450
00:35:35,720 --> 00:35:36,280
Yeah

451
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:41,800
And then you were on there and this was it was cool to see because this is when you first came or started shenanigans

452
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:47,400
And it wasn't you didn't even have your alcohol license yet. And it was it was it was so fun to go back and and

453
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,960
And see you then so you lived in austin

454
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:56,200
For how long 17? Well, I was in texas for 17 years lived in the austin area for 10

455
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:58,520
So you're pretty much the reason for the comedy boom

456
00:35:58,920 --> 00:35:59,880
Oh

457
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:01,880
single-handedly

458
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,480
Yeah, forget joe rogan who never heard of

459
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,480
The guy

460
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:16,600
So when you were there, uh, did you do stand-up or improv a lot improv, okay predominantly I did improv

461
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:23,960
um, I started off getting trained with uh comedy sports, which is kind of a national chain and they had a

462
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:28,680
A thing in austin and the guy's name there was les mcghee and then

463
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,320
We started a gay

464
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,600
Improv troupe and I love the name we were called the three dollar bills

465
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:41,720
And uh, we were coached by a guy named tom booker and yeah did a lot of improv there

466
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:43,960
It's stand-up. It's been weird for me

467
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:48,200
And I don't know how much you want to go into it at this point, but I kind of when I was

468
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:54,760
Somewhere around between 19 and 21. I was still in huntsville because I grew up here. I moved away for my first teaching job

469
00:36:54,840 --> 00:36:56,840
That's how I ended up in texas

470
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:58,840
But uh grew up here family here

471
00:36:58,840 --> 00:37:04,600
And then when I was around that age there was in scott I think mentioned it but there was a

472
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:09,640
Mainstream comedy club back in the day called the comedy club and it burned down

473
00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:15,640
But before all that they had their open mic night was on thursday before the show

474
00:37:15,880 --> 00:37:18,200
That was going to be the weekend show. That's how they did it

475
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:22,360
And I remember going up and trying it and getting a favorable response

476
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:25,880
But I don't remember that much about it because i'm old and that was a long time ago

477
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,360
so

478
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:33,160
I just kind of dropped it because college and moving and life happened and then I was

479
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,480
I went to see an improv show and loved it

480
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:41,160
So that's how I got into that but I still had this itch that I wasn't sure about with stand-up

481
00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:43,880
So we moved back here in 2012

482
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:52,120
And we start doing our own thing with um, another business we had in summerville called the summerville playhouse

483
00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:59,720
It was like the precursor to shenanigans, but it wasn't a non-profit and started some performing there got involved with improv there

484
00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:03,560
and then in 2018 my mom passed away and

485
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:10,760
Thank you, and it was it was really hard time because um, she's amazing human and and my heart

486
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,920
So I was really struggling and I had been going to stand-up live

487
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,400
It was very shortly after stand-up live first opened

488
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,920
And saw that they were offering stand-up classes there

489
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:24,200
And I was like, you know what? Maybe if I take this class

490
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:30,920
Because my mom passed away in January the end of January in 2018 the class happened in april

491
00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:35,960
And with the encouragement of my wife who is the most encouraging spouse on the planet

492
00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:42,360
Um, she's like just go do this, you know, maybe they'll help you kind of forget not forget stuff

493
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,400
We you know think about something else other than this and

494
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:51,160
So I was like, well if I try it then i'll know one way or the other if it's something I should do if I should just like

495
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:53,160
Yeah, it's not really for me. Whatever

496
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:58,120
at the time, uh, the main teacher was jonathan craig and um

497
00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:01,640
Amazing guy still a good friend of my day like jonathan

498
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:07,400
If the people that know jonathan will know how true that this is and for those of you that don't know him

499
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:09,640
He's that kind of guy who

500
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:14,360
I was just in his class and by the second week. He was my mentor

501
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:15,400
You know what I mean?

502
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:22,040
Like he he was always willing to do everything he could to help and to be positive and all that and to this day

503
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,840
I could whip out my phone right now and text him and I'd get a response

504
00:39:24,840 --> 00:39:25,880
Love people like that

505
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:30,840
And keep in mind now he's one of jellyroll's people so it's not like he's not busy

506
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:32,840
But yeah, Scott was telling us about that

507
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:37,880
Yeah, he's the kind of guy that it doesn't matter what he's doing. I'm still his friend, you know

508
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:40,760
And he was a really good teacher

509
00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:45,880
Really good teacher and then I met scott that same way because jonathan brought in scott

510
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:50,040
Tom hand and another guy named brandon imes who is in tampa now

511
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,000
to kind of be

512
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:57,960
Kind of like guest teachers toward the end of the class when we were doing sets and stuff

513
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:01,080
and um, I I got up there and

514
00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:06,760
Haven't looked back since as far as standing we're glad you didn't yeah. Hell. Yeah. Hell. Yeah

515
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,440
Yeah, that's crazy how it all comes full circle

516
00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:17,000
You know from taking the class to then starting a place that acts as that for new up-and-coming comics

517
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:23,240
Yeah, that's awesome. Yeah. Yeah, and you know, that's that's all kind of part of the the design of the way that jessica

518
00:40:23,240 --> 00:40:30,040
And I kind of see and do most everything and also shout out to scott because after that class, um

519
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:36,680
He and jonathan because it kind of morphed when jonathan started doing other things and scott kind of stepped in as the

520
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:42,760
Main teacher that class and both of them utilized me to come back and and help with the class

521
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:44,840
I was you know, kind of considered, you know

522
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:47,320
Helping alone if you will

523
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:53,240
And then I also did some private coaching with scott where he really helped me to build my um,

524
00:40:53,720 --> 00:40:57,560
Joke riding muscles and stuff like that. So hats off to him as well

525
00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:03,480
Hell, yeah, it's awesome shout out. It's awesome. So you said you moved to texas for your first teaching job

526
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:11,320
Yes, how would you compare teaching like an actual classroom of students at a school to compare it like compare that to teaching stand-up?

527
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:18,840
Is it comparable? It's uh apples and oranges as long as you realize that the apples don't give a fuck

528
00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,560
And the oranges paid to be there

529
00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,440
Okay, yeah, I love that makes sense

530
00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:30,280
Makes a lot of sense. Yeah, I I tried my hand at teaching. I failed miserably

531
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:36,920
I heard I heard that I was a I was a student teacher local high school in huntsville. It was terrible

532
00:41:37,720 --> 00:41:44,280
They hated me. I hated them. It's not for everyone. It's not it's not my hat's off to anybody who could do it

533
00:41:45,160 --> 00:41:52,520
I'll tell you this. I was in when I first moved to texas. I was in killeen, texas, which is fort hood world's largest

534
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,840
Base. Yeah. Yeah, I know about the hood now everything happens out the hood

535
00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:02,840
I'm gonna tell you this you start teaching there. You're either gonna make it or break it because there is no in between

536
00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:09,880
That's a completely transient student population because it's a military so nobody

537
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:15,720
You know is from there. Nobody is native to killeen people are always in and out

538
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:19,560
And that made it tough and this was in the mid to late 90s

539
00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:25,900
So gangs were a thing a big thing in this area because these kids had no sense of belonging

540
00:42:25,900 --> 00:42:29,180
They're they're not from there didn't grow up there. There's no family there

541
00:42:29,180 --> 00:42:33,500
So you find family you get in where you fit in and gangs were a big thing there

542
00:42:34,140 --> 00:42:36,780
um, and but I I loved

543
00:42:37,500 --> 00:42:38,300
that

544
00:42:38,300 --> 00:42:42,380
that population I loved that experience because it

545
00:42:42,940 --> 00:42:46,320
Taught me something. I never would have learned if I stayed in alabama

546
00:42:47,180 --> 00:42:48,540
ever ever

547
00:42:48,540 --> 00:42:51,500
and I was successful with those kids because you know

548
00:42:51,500 --> 00:42:56,380
I am not your typical alabamian as far as the way that I grew up

549
00:42:56,700 --> 00:43:01,580
My dad was in the military and he was a race relations officer during the civil rights movement

550
00:43:01,980 --> 00:43:05,260
So even though i'm out in the country and looking like I do

551
00:43:05,820 --> 00:43:06,620
um

552
00:43:06,620 --> 00:43:09,740
You you never heard the any racial slurs in our house

553
00:43:09,900 --> 00:43:16,540
You never heard anything disrespectful because my dad was one of the first white dudes in alabama that I know of that got it

554
00:43:16,620 --> 00:43:19,660
You know, okay, and so he raised my brother and I that way

555
00:43:19,660 --> 00:43:25,020
um, so I think that had a big big part in me being successful when I went to texas

556
00:43:25,500 --> 00:43:28,620
But I said you didn't look at them differently, you know, yeah

557
00:43:29,260 --> 00:43:32,060
I mean I had to learn some things just because their

558
00:43:32,940 --> 00:43:37,420
Their way of life being trans even though I was a military kid. I didn't move around a lot

559
00:43:38,060 --> 00:43:42,620
Past like preschool age. We were pretty much settled by the time that I was in school

560
00:43:43,340 --> 00:43:45,580
so that was different from these kids, but

561
00:43:45,580 --> 00:43:52,380
Um, we did share a lot of similarities as far as understanding what it meant to be a military kid and have parents

562
00:43:52,540 --> 00:43:56,140
Be deployed and things like that because that did happen even after we were settled

563
00:43:56,140 --> 00:43:59,100
My dad got, you know shipped off to korea and so on and so forth

564
00:43:59,500 --> 00:44:03,100
but um, you know, it's a fantastic

565
00:44:04,460 --> 00:44:06,460
realization that

566
00:44:07,340 --> 00:44:13,260
The thing that you weren't even aware was going on in your childhood opened you up to a richness of life

567
00:44:13,260 --> 00:44:18,460
You wouldn't have otherwise experienced. Mm-hmm. I love that. I love that. Yeah. Yeah

568
00:44:19,180 --> 00:44:20,620
so, um

569
00:44:20,620 --> 00:44:22,620
I seen you were on a roast battle

570
00:44:23,180 --> 00:44:30,860
Yeah, what's so much fun big names? Yeah huge names. Who'd you have yet? Tony Hinchcliffe, uh, Jeff Ross

571
00:44:31,660 --> 00:44:34,300
What's Tony? I remember that's what's been there

572
00:44:35,420 --> 00:44:37,420
Okay, okay, and then

573
00:44:37,740 --> 00:44:40,220
Can you tell us about this because that's awesome. Yeah, so

574
00:44:41,500 --> 00:44:42,860
before um

575
00:44:42,860 --> 00:44:44,300
shenanigans

576
00:44:44,300 --> 00:44:48,060
It was kind of like I don't think we had started shenanigans when that happened

577
00:44:48,140 --> 00:44:54,140
I don't remember exactly but it was in the early days and I was doing a lot more stuff at shenan or at stand-up live before

578
00:44:54,700 --> 00:44:56,700
um shenanigans just mainly

579
00:44:57,240 --> 00:44:59,240
scheduling a problem

580
00:44:59,900 --> 00:45:01,020
but um

581
00:45:01,020 --> 00:45:07,500
Lucy who is the booker for zanies in nashville and also does a lot of the booking at stand-up live

582
00:45:07,500 --> 00:45:12,700
Okay, she contacts me because i've been doing a lot of stuff and she said hey you want to be on this roast battle

583
00:45:12,860 --> 00:45:15,660
Well, i'm not like a natural roaster

584
00:45:16,220 --> 00:45:21,020
Because I don't like hurting people's feelings. I'm kind of a wimp in that regard

585
00:45:21,580 --> 00:45:23,580
um, but then

586
00:45:24,140 --> 00:45:28,060
And plus I was new and so I was kind of timid in that regard

587
00:45:28,700 --> 00:45:35,260
But she's like, you know, you'll you'll get to know who you're gonna be against so then you know

588
00:45:35,260 --> 00:45:38,380
You can prepare. It's not like you have to go up and do it off the cuff. I'm like, okay

589
00:45:38,380 --> 00:45:40,140
Yeah, i'll do it. No problem. Oh, yeah

590
00:45:40,140 --> 00:45:43,680
So I went up against brad sativa out of nashville

591
00:45:44,220 --> 00:45:48,060
And do you guys know if brad i've seen some stuff on social media?

592
00:45:48,140 --> 00:45:54,700
Yeah, he's an amazing comic and he's doing really cool stuff. He's all around all around the u.s at this point

593
00:45:55,340 --> 00:45:57,340
but um brad

594
00:45:57,500 --> 00:45:59,500
has a similar

595
00:45:59,500 --> 00:46:06,380
Beard structure to jonathan except for he doesn't have a mustache. Oh armor style. Yeah. Yeah, so I went hard on that

596
00:46:08,060 --> 00:46:09,500
Yeah, there he is

597
00:46:09,500 --> 00:46:11,500
You see what i'm doing? Okay. Yeah

598
00:46:12,940 --> 00:46:15,180
But I went up against brad and

599
00:46:15,820 --> 00:46:19,180
I was ready and he was just gonna kind of play it off the cuff

600
00:46:19,260 --> 00:46:22,780
I guess he thought he was you know, just gonna be all right without preparing

601
00:46:23,900 --> 00:46:25,900
He went down

602
00:46:25,900 --> 00:46:28,860
Killed him buried him. Yeah. Oh, yeah

603
00:46:29,660 --> 00:46:33,660
I used the roast he did against me as part of my opener for a long time though

604
00:46:33,660 --> 00:46:39,180
Because he's very funny like he told me I look like uh, I could be both dan and roseanne connor

605
00:46:41,420 --> 00:46:43,420
That's a great roast

606
00:46:44,140 --> 00:46:46,140
Look like a polyamorous stepdad

607
00:46:46,140 --> 00:46:55,580
I love your joke. I want to put it out there because uh, give your material away, but you know, uh

608
00:46:56,300 --> 00:46:58,940
The big test joke how you end up on that one

609
00:47:01,820 --> 00:47:03,820
Yeah

610
00:47:03,820 --> 00:47:11,900
Yeah, that roast battle was fun and um that it was a packed house and it each each little local match was just kind of

611
00:47:11,900 --> 00:47:17,820
Because what they did is they got I want to say three or four pairs of us to roast each other

612
00:47:18,380 --> 00:47:21,180
That were fairly local huntsville nashville that kind of thing

613
00:47:21,740 --> 00:47:27,020
And then after that they had their touring comics that got up and roasted each other as part of the roast battle

614
00:47:27,020 --> 00:47:30,220
But it was full production. They had the guy over here on the ones and twos and

615
00:47:31,980 --> 00:47:35,900
And then the real rowdy guys running around with all their stuff it was fun

616
00:47:36,540 --> 00:47:39,260
Damn. Oh that that's cool. Always want to do a roast

617
00:47:39,260 --> 00:47:41,260
Uh, well i'm not good enough yet

618
00:47:42,300 --> 00:47:45,180
You know what I mean, but I could write some I could write some uh,

619
00:47:46,140 --> 00:47:48,140
Some dingers I think

620
00:47:49,100 --> 00:47:53,100
Try it out. We've done some roast battle type stuff at shenanigans, too

621
00:47:53,100 --> 00:47:55,260
We like to build roasting into stuff

622
00:47:55,500 --> 00:48:00,700
Okay, so similar to what we did because just having a whole show of roast it gets kind of repetitive

623
00:48:01,260 --> 00:48:04,220
And especially we do a lot of stuff tournament style

624
00:48:04,220 --> 00:48:09,260
So if you have somebody that keeps going through the tournament, well, then you've hit on just about everything

625
00:48:09,260 --> 00:48:15,580
They can be roasted for pretty quick. Okay. Yeah, those are all things that you kind of consider when you're building shows like that

626
00:48:15,900 --> 00:48:19,980
Okay, so whenever you know, you're going to go up against somebody but you go to the next round

627
00:48:20,060 --> 00:48:25,820
So you just have to have material for everyone, right? Yeah, and then hope and then if somebody says yours you got to take it out

628
00:48:25,820 --> 00:48:29,740
Right, you gotta pay attention. Mm-hmm. Because otherwise everybody's like heck. Yeah, right

629
00:48:30,220 --> 00:48:31,900
Just heard that. Yeah

630
00:48:31,900 --> 00:48:38,860
That's good. That's challenging. That's what I was worried about with uh roasting jonathan on the uh, newbie show because he has a very distinct look

631
00:48:40,300 --> 00:48:44,880
Yeah, but leann went the hardest on his look. Oh my goodness all those commercials

632
00:48:49,580 --> 00:48:51,580
Hit him hard he probably did after

633
00:48:52,460 --> 00:48:54,460
I saw him in his car. I don't mean that in the

634
00:48:55,260 --> 00:48:56,460
jj said that

635
00:48:56,460 --> 00:48:58,300
I didn't say that

636
00:48:58,300 --> 00:49:02,060
Right next to that white baby he had in his office civic, you know

637
00:49:04,940 --> 00:49:11,900
I do want to say I just saw this on like our intel sheet from our undisclosed researcher that will remain anonymous

638
00:49:12,540 --> 00:49:15,360
I love how number five is double knee replace

639
00:49:20,540 --> 00:49:22,540
Comedy is a full contact career

640
00:49:22,540 --> 00:49:26,940
Yeah, I love it he's the best intel guy

641
00:49:29,100 --> 00:49:31,820
All right, so am I commenting on that or you're just observing?

642
00:49:35,740 --> 00:49:40,940
Hey go researcher because you're right I had them both done at the same time damn I am no wimp, okay

643
00:49:41,420 --> 00:49:43,420
Yeah, that's thugging it out right there

644
00:49:43,980 --> 00:49:45,980
But you know, how long were you in the wheelchair for?

645
00:49:45,980 --> 00:49:53,020
Oh, I had not after I got out of the hospital. I was I went straight Walker. Wow. Oh damn. Yep

646
00:49:55,420 --> 00:49:57,420
This is new technology

647
00:49:57,740 --> 00:49:59,500
No, it's called like well

648
00:49:59,500 --> 00:50:05,660
That's the thing is I don't know if you've ever known anybody that could be supportive and whoop your ass at the same time

649
00:50:06,140 --> 00:50:07,420
That's my wife

650
00:50:07,420 --> 00:50:12,220
So she's just like don't be a pussy get up. You gotta go walk. You gotta do your pt. I love it

651
00:50:12,220 --> 00:50:17,580
Hey, if anybody ever has to do any kind of knee stuff, that's my one bit of advice

652
00:50:17,580 --> 00:50:21,580
I'll tell them is don't limp out on the pt. You're gonna cry it's gonna hurt

653
00:50:21,580 --> 00:50:25,740
But if you do everything you're supposed to do, you'll be all right. So here I am two new knees

654
00:50:27,900 --> 00:50:29,900
Yeah, don's been looking into it

655
00:50:31,500 --> 00:50:34,780
But the va surgeons, you know, they'll fuck you they won't give you shit

656
00:50:35,340 --> 00:50:39,020
They still haven't gave me any fucking eczema cream. I'm getting I'm getting

657
00:50:39,020 --> 00:50:45,420
He's been talking about this for so long since the first episode. I'm getting my boy watch the show

658
00:50:45,420 --> 00:50:50,220
He was like, I'll bring you some uh, the next time we hang out. I'm getting secondhand

659
00:50:51,020 --> 00:50:53,020
Steroid crick

660
00:50:53,020 --> 00:50:57,340
It's not even like it's percussive anything. All right, so we don't even have to verify this now

661
00:50:57,340 --> 00:50:59,420
But I bet you by the time we're done with this

662
00:50:59,420 --> 00:51:04,540
My wife is gonna have a recommendation for you for smegs. I'm a creep. I'll fucking take all that

663
00:51:04,540 --> 00:51:11,900
I'll fucking take all that this hurts and the winner too. Oh, okay. Ain't no fucking joke you need a recommendation for your hemorrhoids, right?

664
00:51:14,220 --> 00:51:17,820
I'm not verifying that I'm not saying to go hook you up on that side

665
00:51:18,380 --> 00:51:22,460
Not not the him maybe some other shit, but not damn bro. You go with the other stuff

666
00:51:22,620 --> 00:51:25,180
You know you admit it last episode. Yeah, I did admit it. I got it

667
00:51:25,580 --> 00:51:28,140
I got the eye ward, but you don't want to fix it. Is that what I know?

668
00:51:28,140 --> 00:51:32,220
I want to fix it. You know, fuck it. You got hemorrhoid cream. It was a fix send it

669
00:51:32,220 --> 00:51:37,100
We should get a p.o box. I don't know. Brandon's like well the way I see it. It's a cushion

670
00:51:38,140 --> 00:51:40,140
Sit here on it. It's all right

671
00:51:42,540 --> 00:51:44,540
We'll fix it

672
00:51:45,260 --> 00:51:49,900
Brandon's mom doesn't believe in mental health, but he doesn't believe in physical health

673
00:51:50,940 --> 00:51:53,580
He's fine. That is true. That sentence says so much

674
00:51:55,820 --> 00:51:57,820
That is true

675
00:51:57,820 --> 00:52:02,140
My favorite is when i'm watching y'all show and Brandon goes straight to the camera

676
00:52:05,500 --> 00:52:08,300
I'll be watching and editing. You know, we got like three cameras, right?

677
00:52:08,460 --> 00:52:12,060
So i'll be looking through them and then he does that when he doesn't say anything either

678
00:52:12,300 --> 00:52:14,300
He'll just look at the camera and be like

679
00:52:15,420 --> 00:52:17,420
So sometimes I just cut over

680
00:52:19,420 --> 00:52:20,860
Keep doing that

681
00:52:20,860 --> 00:52:25,500
He sits there. He just nods his head. Yep. He's like, yeah. Yeah. No Brandon. No

682
00:52:25,500 --> 00:52:30,060
No, yeah one time I got in a situation. I like yeah. Yeah, wait a minute. What the fuck we talking about you?

683
00:52:30,060 --> 00:52:32,540
I know that was that was like yesterday. Yeah, yeah

684
00:52:32,620 --> 00:52:35,500
That was last one last week. Yeah one time

685
00:52:36,220 --> 00:52:38,780
So I got in a situation one time. Yeah. Yeah

686
00:52:39,660 --> 00:52:41,740
That's how all his best stories start. Yeah

687
00:52:42,460 --> 00:52:44,460
Well, there was this one guy

688
00:52:44,940 --> 00:52:46,940
I was a fat ass kid

689
00:52:47,580 --> 00:52:51,660
He's like p.o von in that way. Yeah, I just ran to say crazy shit

690
00:52:51,660 --> 00:52:53,660
I

691
00:52:53,580 --> 00:52:55,580
And then I hear my own air brakes

692
00:52:59,020 --> 00:53:03,820
Brandon has a whole fan club here. That's why we have this camera. They were like we gotta have a camera on brand

693
00:53:04,940 --> 00:53:06,940
That's really why we changed it

694
00:53:09,020 --> 00:53:11,020
And you know what nobody ever

695
00:53:11,420 --> 00:53:17,740
Roasted us on the episode that we said roast comment a roast and you'll get 25 dollars. Nobody ever ever did it

696
00:53:18,220 --> 00:53:20,220
So how about you?

697
00:53:20,220 --> 00:53:25,180
They love you too much. Yeah, oh damn you could have just said dom's fat you at a 125. Damn it

698
00:53:25,260 --> 00:53:27,260
I would have voted for you

699
00:53:33,180 --> 00:53:36,700
I should have just went on a different account and pretend like it was a random person

700
00:53:38,060 --> 00:53:40,060
I should have called a family member hook them up

701
00:53:41,340 --> 00:53:45,500
It's still up for grabs go back to episode six or whatever. Whatever. What I don't remember which is

702
00:53:46,060 --> 00:53:48,060
I think it's sci-fi is right to see all these on there

703
00:53:48,060 --> 00:53:49,020
26

704
00:53:49,020 --> 00:53:52,940
Mm-hmm, and you could be a comedian and uh, yeah, i'm still comment on if you like

705
00:53:55,500 --> 00:53:58,460
I was trying to think of something to do right here. Do you do you act ever?

706
00:53:59,340 --> 00:54:02,140
I are you into acting? I like acting a lot

707
00:54:02,780 --> 00:54:08,300
And it's funny because I was going through some stuff recently and I was reminded of acting I did in college

708
00:54:09,020 --> 00:54:11,020
At athens state university

709
00:54:11,740 --> 00:54:14,300
How that's uh part of the dreamsleeves players?

710
00:54:14,940 --> 00:54:16,940
See what happened was

711
00:54:16,940 --> 00:54:18,940
I

712
00:54:19,500 --> 00:54:24,780
I was a career student. It took me like 10 years to get my undergrad degree just because I kept changing my mind

713
00:54:24,860 --> 00:54:26,860
Oh, i'm with you. I'm on your seven right now

714
00:54:27,740 --> 00:54:29,740
foreign counting

715
00:54:30,940 --> 00:54:33,980
I went through everything for an elementary degree and

716
00:54:34,780 --> 00:54:39,180
Got up to student teaching. I can't do this. They're too young. They'll never get my jokes. So

717
00:54:39,980 --> 00:54:42,700
I changed to secondary language arts and

718
00:54:43,340 --> 00:54:45,340
At that point I needed some electives

719
00:54:45,340 --> 00:54:51,260
And I went to I took a theater elective just because I had to have a ela type elective

720
00:54:51,820 --> 00:54:57,100
First night I went in there. They were reading for parts on uh for to kill a mockingbird

721
00:54:57,820 --> 00:55:02,380
And I didn't even know what it meant to read for a part. They're like, hey, uh, we're auditioning now

722
00:55:02,380 --> 00:55:06,140
You want to read for a part? I'm like, I know how to read what are you talking about?

723
00:55:06,620 --> 00:55:11,420
And so they handed me a script and I read for the part and I got cast as mayella yule

724
00:55:11,820 --> 00:55:13,820
The white trash lady that got raped

725
00:55:13,820 --> 00:55:16,720
Supposedly it's kill a mockingbird. Yeah. Oh, yeah

726
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:21,760
They do have a movie though

727
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:26,640
Do they yeah, yeah, it's a black and white movie though, right? Yeah, you took me out. Oh, so now

728
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:29,280
Now it's racist. Is that what you

729
00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:31,360
I mean don't is that the one what they call? Uh,

730
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:33,280
Jim

731
00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:35,280
That's not no that's that's how very

732
00:55:36,240 --> 00:55:37,440
Okay, yeah, okay

733
00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:39,920
There is a gem in to kill a monkey. Okay, j.m

734
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:46,000
Which stores is short for jeremy who is the son? Oh, okay. Okay scout is the main character's her brother

735
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:51,760
Okay, i'm going back and watching it now me too. Let's watch it together. It's really a good movie. It holds up

736
00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:58,320
I mean as much as to kill a mockingbird is about on a trial. All right. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, okay. Okay

737
00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:02,880
Okay, now it's coming back to me. It's coming back to me. I I what did you think it was?

738
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:06,640
I'm not gonna lie to you. I was a hunting man. Yeah, I did I did I thought

739
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,200
I thought it was a very fistful

740
00:56:09,920 --> 00:56:14,880
So let me tell you this, you know now i'm a teacher and I teach to kill a mockingbird because I teach freshmen

741
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:20,880
And it always kills me and you know the ones who don't really read the book whenever they're like

742
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:24,960
In the book how to kill a mockingbird. I'm like, it's not a how-to book

743
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:30,880
That's my ass

744
00:56:32,480 --> 00:56:34,480
You got to get a net

745
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:36,480
Yeah

746
00:56:37,040 --> 00:56:42,560
So I asked you that because you know, we do skits would you ever would you ever be in one of our skits a hundred percent

747
00:56:42,720 --> 00:56:49,680
Actually, we had um, I had an idea that I threw out to Jessica on the way here for a skit. Oh shit

748
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:51,760
You want to do it off or

749
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:53,760
It's it's up to you. Yeah, we could do it

750
00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:56,240
Let's do it

751
00:56:56,240 --> 00:57:00,320
What I mean, I mean to explain what it is if you want to do it off camera on camera. Oh, I don't care

752
00:57:00,320 --> 00:57:06,880
That's okay. Yeah. Yeah, let's do it. So the idea that I had is looking like this and like having this shirt on

753
00:57:07,360 --> 00:57:13,840
um to do where people are talking to me as if you know, they're assuming that i'm gay and i'm like

754
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:16,160
Why do people keep thinking i'm gay?

755
00:57:16,640 --> 00:57:20,640
My god, that's good. I just have a roommate for 15 years

756
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,120
I like dig as much as a net

757
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:31,760
Yeah, or whatever but playing on that idea looking like this and people making assumptions and not being real

758
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,480
I love that. I already got it turning in the head right now

759
00:57:35,440 --> 00:57:39,760
How are you thinking? How are you thinking the setup? Like where's the first scene? I don't know. I didn't get that deep

He assimilates

01:01:02,100 --> 01:01:07,620
I've been told you're one of the good ones multiple times. He's like, you know, they're not all you're one of the good ones

809
01:01:08,820 --> 01:01:13,300
Like they think that's a compliment. Yeah, you gotta let it roll because usually it's around with a lot of white people

810
01:01:13,380 --> 01:01:19,140
You gotta let it roll. If you ever hear that coming from ogre, he knows that like he's he knows that that's a joke

I love how he's a hugger because i'm a hugger too

813
01:01:27,220 --> 01:01:30,740
He'll be like because I thought he didn't like me because I went to go get a fist bump one time

814
01:01:31,300 --> 01:01:34,260
And he looked at he literally looked at me like this and I was like

I was like over that like well, I don't know what I did

817
01:01:38,420 --> 01:01:42,660
And then uh the next time I like try to get my fist bump again, and then he just gave me a hug

818
01:01:42,740 --> 01:01:45,700
I was like, okay, I got more i'm on ogre's good side. I feel good now

819
01:01:45,700 --> 01:01:50,740
Okay, so inside baseball he didn't see it the first time you're trying to give it to him. Yeah

01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:30,200
He's he's had it rough, but he looks like super dumb and racist and he's neither of those things

829
01:02:30,520 --> 01:02:33,400
And he's but he plays into it for his comedy. He's hilarious

830
01:02:34,040 --> 01:02:38,120
Whenever men first came to uh shenanigans and he won this night

831
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:42,680
I mean he damn sure because he you could tell he was trying to get in the set but she kept on interrupting

832
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:48,840
And he laid into her but in the funniest way and she said, uh, god hates you or something like that

833
01:02:49,080 --> 01:02:51,960
He was like I got i'm fuck here in a wheelchair. No shit

01:03:03,560 --> 01:03:08,760
Yeah, so he posted stuff that they post on twitter that I never see on instagram

836
01:03:09,320 --> 01:03:14,200
Oh like the little funny memes and I hate on instagram how you can't comment with a fucking picture

837
01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:19,880
Yeah, I hate everything about the functionality of instagram. See give me something. I'm right here with you

838
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:22,760
They're gonna say it's just because we're old. Yeah

839
01:03:23,960 --> 01:03:28,760
Yeah, my grandma would just want me to tell mark zuckerberg to change it because I have that ability

840
01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:32,360
You know mark, right?

841
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:38,440
Yeah, we went to school together. It was great. All right, so you had a comedy series filmed that shenanigans for amazon prime

842
01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:41,640
Yeah, it was supposed to be oh

843
01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:47,560
That was that was a big one. Oh was it damn? Yeah, they backed out

844
01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,360
Okay, so what happened was um

845
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:52,360
this

846
01:03:52,360 --> 01:03:54,360
gentleman named jesse pollard

847
01:03:55,400 --> 01:03:57,400
and he

848
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,760
went to went through this process of

849
01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:03,180
of contacting amazon and

850
01:04:03,820 --> 01:04:07,900
They're like if you will shoot this content

851
01:04:08,780 --> 01:04:14,780
Then you know, we'll put it up and based on views and all this like there was some kind of an agreement

852
01:04:14,940 --> 01:04:18,460
As like they greenlit him to do a trial if you will

853
01:04:19,020 --> 01:04:23,660
so he hired a professional videographer and all this and

854
01:04:24,220 --> 01:04:26,220
we shot

855
01:04:26,540 --> 01:04:28,540
I don't remember. I think it was

856
01:04:28,540 --> 01:04:32,700
six episodes or something like that and um

857
01:04:33,500 --> 01:04:39,580
And they were really good episodes, but then um something technical went wrong

858
01:04:40,220 --> 01:04:47,580
Like they didn't meet certain parameters for amazon. So they never put them up, but they're good. Okay. They're on youtube. Okay. Okay

859
01:04:48,540 --> 01:04:51,180
Yeah, technical stuff. We're learning that like yeah

860
01:04:51,900 --> 01:04:56,700
like I get nervous after every shoot because i'm like if one if if the if the uh,

861
01:04:56,700 --> 01:04:57,900
um

862
01:04:57,900 --> 01:05:04,380
The mics aren't recording or or two or one of the cameras goes out like it's a big deal then you you lose shit

863
01:05:04,540 --> 01:05:09,580
Yeah, yeah, it's awful. Well, we've been on it brandon great producer over there. Hell. Yeah

864
01:05:11,420 --> 01:05:16,220
But speaking of comedy series we also had um a

865
01:05:17,180 --> 01:05:22,860
Two part series shot at shenanigans for demi tv d e m i tv

866
01:05:23,420 --> 01:05:25,420
Which is its own streaming platform

867
01:05:25,420 --> 01:05:29,820
and um, it was called the demi gods of comedy and

868
01:05:30,940 --> 01:05:36,540
I know part one got put up there. It's available on there. I'm not sure about part two though. Okay

869
01:05:37,580 --> 01:05:42,060
It's and this is on oh you said it's semi tv. Is he said demi tv? Okay

870
01:05:42,780 --> 01:05:49,020
Good friend of ours demetrius malone is the gentleman who is where the demi comes from. Okay

871
01:05:49,820 --> 01:05:53,820
And um, it's his streaming platform. He's a playwright actor

872
01:05:53,820 --> 01:05:59,820
Uh, he has been and I think still does write for a lot of like soap operas and stuff like for

873
01:06:00,220 --> 01:06:03,260
And he's written stuff for netflix and all this other kind of thing

874
01:06:03,340 --> 01:06:08,060
He's predominantly a writer but he started out wanting to be an actor and then got the bug to be a writer

875
01:06:08,380 --> 01:06:12,220
And now he does all sorts of stuff. Okay. Okay. He's local to huntsville, too, by the way

876
01:06:12,860 --> 01:06:16,380
I'm gonna have to look this up. Yeah, he started out in florence, but he's in huntsville now

877
01:06:16,380 --> 01:06:23,660
Now what's the name again demetrius? It's d e m e t r i u s demetrius malone

878
01:06:26,780 --> 01:06:28,780
You said malone, yes, sir

879
01:06:31,820 --> 01:06:33,820
And so what's cool about the

880
01:06:34,540 --> 01:06:38,700
Yeah, none of those. None of those. Okay. Okay. Let's hopefully it's not the guy in the top

881
01:06:39,980 --> 01:06:43,260
Say that's definitely not the mugshot comedy. I want to put comedy

882
01:06:43,260 --> 01:06:49,580
He did say that's okay upper right corner. That's him. Oh nice. Okay. Okay right here. Yeah and see next to it

883
01:06:50,700 --> 01:06:52,700
website

884
01:06:54,380 --> 01:06:56,380
Save that too

885
01:06:56,860 --> 01:07:01,660
So yeah, that's demetrius there you go. Oh, there's homegrown dude. Hell yeah

886
01:07:03,340 --> 01:07:08,540
I got kicked off next month for black history month. I still produce the show kind of

887
01:07:09,660 --> 01:07:11,660
I heard you say something about affirmative action

888
01:07:11,660 --> 01:07:15,180
I'm affirmative action dude. I thought they ended that

889
01:07:16,860 --> 01:07:18,860
You don't like it now

890
01:07:18,860 --> 01:07:21,500
Jonathan was like i'll put you up at the end, but i'm not gonna pay you

891
01:07:22,380 --> 01:07:30,300
It's like right before we get off demetrius demetrius tv. He started that because he wanted to

892
01:07:30,940 --> 01:07:32,300
uh be able to

893
01:07:32,300 --> 01:07:37,500
Produce he has written and produced shows actual original content for that platform

894
01:07:37,500 --> 01:07:43,420
But he also gives a lot of space and opportunity for other folks that

895
01:07:43,980 --> 01:07:48,540
Are more like original independent indie kinds of stuff on his platform. So

896
01:07:49,260 --> 01:07:51,260
Shout out demi tv

897
01:07:51,260 --> 01:07:53,260
so what would you what what um

898
01:07:53,500 --> 01:07:58,300
Advice would you give to somebody wanting to go up there and do improv or acting?

899
01:07:59,100 --> 01:08:00,460
like uh

900
01:08:00,460 --> 01:08:02,460
Do you have any advice for that?

901
01:08:02,780 --> 01:08:04,780
well for improv

902
01:08:04,780 --> 01:08:11,020
We do some things that can kind of help you figure that out before you make a financial commitment

903
01:08:11,660 --> 01:08:15,980
Once a month on the second sunday of every month. We do an open improv jam

904
01:08:16,700 --> 01:08:23,580
And so it's from zero to experience. We just ask that folks are like at least 16 to come to that

905
01:08:24,220 --> 01:08:25,340
and um

906
01:08:25,340 --> 01:08:31,180
We have some of our improv more experienced improv coaches and players who will run exercises

907
01:08:31,180 --> 01:08:35,660
It's like an open mic but for improv and then that way you can come and sit in you

908
01:08:35,660 --> 01:08:38,940
Don't have to play if you don't want to if you're just curious about it

909
01:08:39,260 --> 01:08:42,300
You can sit and watch you can come and put your name in the bucket and play

910
01:08:42,940 --> 01:08:44,940
and then if excuse me

911
01:08:46,460 --> 01:08:53,180
And then if you decide that you want to pursue improv we have classes going on that I really recommend

912
01:08:53,580 --> 01:08:57,020
So you start out with level one improv and that just started today actually

913
01:08:57,020 --> 01:09:00,940
So it won't be back for a while and it's sold out. We got people on the waiting list

914
01:09:01,100 --> 01:09:04,620
So it's like when these classes pop up you want to get those those seats

915
01:09:05,260 --> 01:09:06,700
but we've got um

916
01:09:06,700 --> 01:09:12,780
Level one started today and then they'll have another level two and we just kind of keep building that because that's another thing that

917
01:09:13,180 --> 01:09:19,340
We saw a need and we're trying to fill and build the scene for that. So my my advice for that is definitely

918
01:09:20,300 --> 01:09:21,660
Make sure that you want to do it

919
01:09:21,660 --> 01:09:27,340
And then and the other thing is as you guys know by seeing how much you pay for a four loco as you're in here

920
01:09:28,220 --> 01:09:30,220
We're not in it to make a ton of money

921
01:09:30,220 --> 01:09:34,860
we just want to keep the doors open and try to make enough money to to start paying our talent more but

922
01:09:35,500 --> 01:09:36,620
um

923
01:09:36,620 --> 01:09:41,500
The classes are very reasonable. He's 150 bucks for a six weeks class. That's cheap. Yep

924
01:09:42,140 --> 01:09:47,980
Uh, every friend that I brought to uh shenanigans has like one of my boy who just came to the newbie show

925
01:09:47,980 --> 01:09:53,340
He's like i already told my wife i'm going once a month to shenanigans and I don't care what she says

926
01:09:53,900 --> 01:09:55,900
I've already got it. He put his foot down

927
01:09:56,380 --> 01:09:58,780
He put it down before he even before he even went home

928
01:10:00,220 --> 01:10:02,460
We were at moody monday. He's like i'm going to shenanigans

929
01:10:05,340 --> 01:10:08,940
It's a great time people i'm telling you you will have and it's so much to do

930
01:10:09,340 --> 01:10:16,220
She what's the website huntsville laughs.com huntsville laughs.com go to that and you'll see that if you look if you search google search

931
01:10:16,220 --> 01:10:21,340
Huntsville comedy. It's the first one of the I think the first thing that pops up or maybe second

932
01:10:21,420 --> 01:10:23,420
It probably depends on which terms you use

933
01:10:23,420 --> 01:10:24,060
Yeah

934
01:10:24,060 --> 01:10:24,940
and then um

935
01:10:24,940 --> 01:10:26,620
Because that's how that's how I found out about it

936
01:10:26,620 --> 01:10:32,140
That's the only reason i'm doing stand-up now in here is because that was uh, the one that gave me the opportunity and I always

937
01:10:32,140 --> 01:10:34,140
Say thank you. I'll tell you that every time

938
01:10:35,660 --> 01:10:37,660
Me and brandon

939
01:10:38,460 --> 01:10:40,460
We all met like that

940
01:10:40,460 --> 01:10:42,300
My first opportunity to with the dj's name

941
01:10:42,300 --> 01:10:46,540
I was about to say brandon was a volunteer at shenanigans before he ever started doing comedy

942
01:10:46,780 --> 01:10:51,980
So he got up in there and started working the board and stuff and helping us out in that way when he could

943
01:10:52,380 --> 01:10:55,900
He got busy with school and stuff, but you know, but that's so cool though

944
01:10:56,140 --> 01:11:01,420
Like to have something like that like that's pretty much the reason all this started that's where we met

945
01:11:01,980 --> 01:11:06,940
Like it's it's so crazy to think about that literally standing outside waiting for the doors to open

946
01:11:07,260 --> 01:11:10,860
Yeah talking for a little bit going by the time we got in there

947
01:11:10,860 --> 01:11:12,860
Well, you know, I went straight to the park

948
01:11:14,140 --> 01:11:19,340
But before we even got out of line he's like we should start a park and it literally all happened at shenanigans

949
01:11:20,060 --> 01:11:23,020
Always so thankful and we need to talk about something more serious

950
01:11:23,500 --> 01:11:27,340
Uh, if sci-fi is not on the show, he needs to stay his ass out of the gray room exactly

951
01:11:27,980 --> 01:11:29,580
exactly

952
01:11:29,580 --> 01:11:36,140
Thank you for saying this. I mean what I was just looking I was like, oh we we get we get all this who put him on the board

953
01:11:36,620 --> 01:11:38,620
Who put him on the board?

954
01:11:38,620 --> 01:11:43,180
That would be myself and my lovely wife jessica recommended sci-fi to our board

955
01:11:44,380 --> 01:11:49,260
So how's this shit? I just love fucking with him. I could I just that was so funny when you did that though

956
01:11:49,500 --> 01:11:56,060
Oh my god, he walked in there and I just looked and then he starts plugging up his phone like oh, are you comfortable?

957
01:11:56,940 --> 01:11:59,500
Do you want something to drink too? Make yourself at home

958
01:12:01,260 --> 01:12:03,260
I didn't see you on the lineup, sir

959
01:12:03,260 --> 01:12:07,580
I don't know. It says comics comics only

960
01:12:09,340 --> 01:12:10,780
That was a big deal to get in the green room

961
01:12:10,780 --> 01:12:15,660
You can ask that the whole time I was in there like you're the great because when I was in shenanigans before it's

962
01:12:15,740 --> 01:12:19,820
I was like, oh you ever been in the green room before I was like no and then he put his hand in the middle

963
01:12:19,900 --> 01:12:23,100
Of my chest. It was like, okay your time will come

964
01:12:26,620 --> 01:12:28,620
Oh, that's fantastic

965
01:12:28,700 --> 01:12:30,700
It's a rite of passage

966
01:12:30,700 --> 01:12:34,620
Okay, we don't let you write on the wall in there, but we'll give you some food and drinks

967
01:12:34,940 --> 01:12:38,540
Oh, yeah, oh you can write on the wall and uh stand up live, right?

968
01:12:38,940 --> 01:12:39,500
Okay

969
01:12:39,500 --> 01:12:43,980
It's a their thing is you can sign the wall if you can find a spot now people are signing the ceiling

970
01:12:44,380 --> 01:12:48,300
And the floor and the floor and whatever jj's on it. Uh tonight

971
01:12:48,860 --> 01:12:50,460
Hell yeah

972
01:12:50,460 --> 01:12:53,180
Don't be shy and I'll put your name on the wall. I'll sign the floor

973
01:12:56,140 --> 01:12:58,140
And uh, I will

974
01:12:58,140 --> 01:13:03,020
I will buy you a drink at shenanigans if you find my name on the wall and take a picture of it

975
01:13:03,580 --> 01:13:08,380
Challenge accepted. There you go. sci-fi has a similar thing with the stickers that he puts around everywhere

976
01:13:08,540 --> 01:13:12,780
Like you put one at every venue like there's one on the locker of the speakeasy like going in there

977
01:13:13,020 --> 01:13:16,620
He's like if you find it. Well, he doesn't he ain't shit. He don't offer you anything

978
01:13:18,860 --> 01:13:21,100
I'll be looking for that. You can do a scavenger hunt

979
01:13:21,100 --> 01:13:27,020
I just signed kim's name on the wall instead of my own

980
01:13:28,460 --> 01:13:30,460
I know my signature

981
01:13:31,180 --> 01:13:33,420
Oh, do you do you have stickers that we can buy?

982
01:13:34,060 --> 01:13:39,100
I have stickers that I will give you because they don't look anything like me now

983
01:13:39,740 --> 01:13:43,100
Okay, well I have some that are joke related

984
01:13:43,420 --> 01:13:47,260
So they're specific to certain bits that I have. Oh, that's tight. And then I have

985
01:13:47,260 --> 01:13:52,700
Uh some that have my image and they don't look like me at all because they like okay

986
01:13:53,100 --> 01:13:55,740
Oh, we want to put because we're going to get a bigger map, right?

987
01:13:55,900 --> 01:13:56,380
Yeah

988
01:13:56,380 --> 01:14:01,500
So whenever we're going to redo the whole the whole background and get a bigger map and we want it so we can you know put

989
01:14:01,820 --> 01:14:08,140
They're like also close together. The shenanigans is marked. It is one of these pins because I sat there on google maps

990
01:14:09,020 --> 01:14:14,460
With the pins and hit them and the lady at michael's looked at me crazy when I bought these items together

991
01:14:14,460 --> 01:14:20,140
Yeah, it was like the cork board. There's the red string. I was like, don't worry. I have a map of huntsville in my car

992
01:14:21,180 --> 01:14:23,180
She's like yes, but what are you marking?

993
01:14:24,380 --> 01:14:26,380
And why do you have duct tape?

994
01:14:29,100 --> 01:14:32,780
And you look like that have you ever seen him walk he walks just like michael miers

995
01:14:33,500 --> 01:14:35,660
If you like if nobody's paying attention to him

996
01:14:36,060 --> 01:14:41,660
You're like I swear me me and my friend dilo when we shot the first uh, the intro to the com college, right?

997
01:14:41,660 --> 01:14:46,620
And he was walking across like not meaning to look like a murderer and i'm like we just start cracking up

998
01:14:46,700 --> 01:14:52,460
I was like, why is he walking like that? You know what it is. It was living with my grandparents. We have a long

999
01:14:53,180 --> 01:14:59,340
Hallway with a creaky wooden floor. So you have to learn to walk without your footsteps making noise unless you want to get yelled at

1000
01:15:00,540 --> 01:15:06,860
Oh, okay. Okay. My footsteps don't make a sound i'm untraceable if I walk in the snow you want to see my shoe print, dude

1001
01:15:07,580 --> 01:15:09,580
i'm lied on my feet

1002
01:15:09,580 --> 01:15:12,380
And in those troubled times jj was carrying you

1003
01:15:13,740 --> 01:15:17,180
Put prints in the sand jesus and anyway, I digress

1004
01:15:19,260 --> 01:15:26,300
Yeah, me and dom do look like jesus in mohamed yeah, yeah, I see it we're here but truthfully he would look more like jesus

1005
01:15:26,700 --> 01:15:32,540
Yeah, oh, yeah, i've seen the picture the ai-generated one. I look like I look like a lot of the catholic imagery of jesus

1006
01:15:32,540 --> 01:15:39,420
Yeah, you look like the photo negative of the real jesus

1007
01:15:40,940 --> 01:15:42,940
I look like nick theory

That's what that is. You don't know nick theory

1011
01:15:54,700 --> 01:15:57,500
I don't think anybody in this room knows what you're talking about right now

1012
01:15:57,900 --> 01:15:59,900
Last week he said he looked like robert penn

1013

I mean there's and and thank you so much for coming on. I remember, uh,

1044
01:18:33,740 --> 01:18:37,740
You said something about coming up podcast and it blew my mind because I was like they will come on

1045
01:18:38,620 --> 01:18:40,620
I was like him will come on our podcast

1046
01:18:41,580 --> 01:18:46,300
The way I see this and as the scene as a whole is everybody

1047
01:18:46,700 --> 01:18:52,220
Right now especially is doing their part and it's benefiting everyone and you guys are really

1048
01:18:52,220 --> 01:18:59,420
Performing a service for the scene as a whole and we appreciate that and that's it's right in line with what we try to do

1049
01:18:59,660 --> 01:19:04,860
You know, it's like everybody says a whole rising tide lifts all boats, but I think that that's true

1050
01:19:05,500 --> 01:19:06,860
I believe that we work together

1051
01:19:06,860 --> 01:19:13,100
We're gonna be bringing lots of really cool stuff to fruition and you guys are playing a very big role in that

1052
01:19:13,180 --> 01:19:17,980
So I appreciate what y'all are doing. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, and we're and and this scene will blow up

1053
01:19:17,980 --> 01:19:25,180
It's too much funny. It's too much funny and people love funny and and once and they're already coming out

1054
01:19:25,180 --> 01:19:25,900
I mean

1055
01:19:25,900 --> 01:19:29,020
They're already coming out the shows once we get more eyes and everything

1056
01:19:29,020 --> 01:19:34,460
This thing is just gonna this thing is gonna bowl and hopefully get you some good clips and you can put out there

1057
01:19:35,260 --> 01:19:40,540
One thing, uh, I have to say though is that I I don't see a peanut butter and jelly sandwich

1058
01:19:40,540 --> 01:19:48,300
And you see let's see if we would have waited this long the air would have stale the crust on the bread and the whole

1059
01:19:48,460 --> 01:19:51,740
Experience would have been on that's true. You know, that's true

1060
01:19:51,740 --> 01:19:55,980
We can make a like a cooking show episode where I teach people how to do this

1061
01:19:56,700 --> 01:20:01,980
Now we should charge for this but we're not going to I mean the whole thing is if you wouldn't open your mouth about

1062
01:20:02,060 --> 01:20:05,260
How you're the best at it? There wouldn't be an issue on at all

1063
01:20:05,260 --> 01:20:10,860
We would have no problem at hand. Yeah, I gotta let him know though. You do gotta let him know. Thank you

1064
01:20:11,340 --> 01:20:14,940
Sci-fi can attest he had one and you're gonna you're gonna eat one after this

1065
01:20:15,740 --> 01:20:18,780
