Yeah. 00:00:05.580 --> 00:00:08.240 Is that a thing? I guess. I mean, I'm kind of 00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:10.160 - It's become a thing. I feel like it wasn't 00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:13.339 on my radar until like 10 years ago I started 00:00:13.339 --> 00:00:15.720 hearing Hump Day. What? That's like a 90s thing. 00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:18.480 Is it? The Geico commercial. Whoa, with the - 00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.100 The camo, the camo. They really put some boost 00:00:21.100 --> 00:00:23.250 behind it, but it was a thing before. All right. 00:00:23.469 --> 00:00:25.469 Well, it is. That's what it is. It's Wednesday. 00:00:25.489 --> 00:00:27.589 It's true. And we got our good buddy coming in. 00:00:27.589 --> 00:00:29.489 I'm pumped about that. I'm excited. We got two 00:00:29.489 --> 00:00:32.070 good buddies. I got here for you today on Good 00:00:32.070 --> 00:00:34.469 News York. If you saw yesterday's show, you should 00:00:34.469 --> 00:00:37.090 have an idea what's coming up. We were with our 00:00:37.090 --> 00:00:40.469 buddy Ryan Neemiller talking about this awesome 00:00:40.469 --> 00:00:43.250 comedy show that he's going to be on in Utica. 00:00:43.409 --> 00:00:45.729 Yeah. And we got the folks that are going to 00:00:45.729 --> 00:00:48.609 tell you more about that. So stick around. We'll 00:00:48.609 --> 00:00:51.070 pull them in here. Have some good news. Coming 00:00:51.070 --> 00:00:53.469 up next, right here on Good News York. Hi guys, 00:00:53.469 --> 00:00:57.130 welcome back. We are here with our very good 00:00:57.130 --> 00:01:00.710 friends. We got Phil Farda and the lovely Helly 00:01:00.710 --> 00:01:04.870 Beer here in person. I'm very excited. A clip 00:01:04.870 --> 00:01:07.530 for that. For those who don't know, Phil here 00:01:07.530 --> 00:01:10.010 is my podcast bestie and I've never done anyone 00:01:10.010 --> 00:01:13.159 without him before, so it was weird. I felt like 00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:14.879 I was cheating on Phil when we started the show 00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:17.439 with Mike Peace and I. Tough shoes to Phil. We're 00:01:17.439 --> 00:01:19.159 here to talk about a lot of cool things. I'm 00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:21.819 excited for a lot of people to learn about your 00:01:21.819 --> 00:01:23.519 business, Phil, because everybody knows Phil 00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:26.819 is the comedian. The reality is he's a brilliant 00:01:26.819 --> 00:01:29.760 businessman and he's turned entertainment into 00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:31.739 a full -time job, not just for himself, but a 00:01:31.739 --> 00:01:34.200 whole group of people. Absolutely. I think that's 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:36.079 pretty awesome. Nice of you. You were talking 00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:39.400 about how Phil is your podcast bestie. Phil is 00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:41.939 my stand -up comedy bestie. I go back further 00:01:41.939 --> 00:01:44.459 with Mike, to be honest. The first guy I started 00:01:44.459 --> 00:01:47.680 with was Phil and then a kid, Blair, who I don't 00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:49.599 know where he is. Is he alive? He's doing really 00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:52.379 well. He's doing forestry now. He's done with 00:01:52.379 --> 00:01:55.359 lawn care. He's doing forestry. He moves quick, 00:01:55.659 --> 00:01:58.040 yeah. God damn. Yeah, man. I started with you, 00:01:58.140 --> 00:02:00.439 Phil. I don't know how to explain this, but I 00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:02.219 think you'll get it. Like, when you're in a band 00:02:02.219 --> 00:02:05.760 with somebody or you work in some sort of creative 00:02:05.760 --> 00:02:08.710 project with somebody, There's a bond that happens 00:02:08.710 --> 00:02:10.750 for the rest of your life. And I'm being serious. 00:02:10.930 --> 00:02:14.009 It's called an NDA. Non -disclosure agreement? 00:02:14.590 --> 00:02:16.330 Oh, right. Well, there's that part of it too, 00:02:16.389 --> 00:02:18.909 but I've always had this tremendous bond with 00:02:18.909 --> 00:02:21.189 Phil because we started together on the front 00:02:21.189 --> 00:02:22.189 lines. We didn't know what we were doing. Do 00:02:22.189 --> 00:02:26.110 you remember? So I did the open mic, right? You 00:02:26.110 --> 00:02:28.750 were hosting the open mic. Got my first show, 00:02:28.870 --> 00:02:32.430 about 200 people, went on stage. The mic didn't 00:02:32.430 --> 00:02:34.349 work. It just didn't work. It pulled out of the 00:02:34.349 --> 00:02:37.520 wall or failed or something. Shit, I mean I really 00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:40.539 hate shit and then I went back stage like at 00:02:40.539 --> 00:02:43.439 the back of the club and I cried You came back 00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:45.060 and gave me a pep talk. Do you remember that? 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.939 I don't Yeah, you were really sweet. You came 00:02:47.939 --> 00:02:50.659 back and you were like, hey man happens everybody 00:02:50.659 --> 00:02:52.599 is okay. Like it's just a fucking pep talk, you 00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:56.000 know That made me keep going cuz I was do I can't 00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:59.259 do that every night. That was I think the reason 00:02:59.259 --> 00:03:01.539 I don't remember is cuz I don't ever remember 00:03:01.539 --> 00:03:05.449 seeing you bomb you were just My first time, 00:03:05.509 --> 00:03:07.349 everything went wrong. It was a nightmare. I 00:03:07.349 --> 00:03:09.689 know. Well, that's how you close to TED Talk. 00:03:10.069 --> 00:03:13.689 Yeah. Well, anyway, yeah. I mean, look, I loved 00:03:13.689 --> 00:03:16.210 you. I was like, this kid is so funny. You were 00:03:16.210 --> 00:03:18.370 great, man. When you were hosting that mic, I 00:03:18.370 --> 00:03:20.009 was like, oh, this guy's really, really good. 00:03:20.509 --> 00:03:23.090 Polished, funny. And I was like, oh, maybe you 00:03:23.090 --> 00:03:25.150 were great. If I didn't see somebody doing it 00:03:25.150 --> 00:03:26.909 well, I don't know that I would have kept going. 00:03:27.210 --> 00:03:29.349 I just saw it in you right from the start. You 00:03:29.349 --> 00:03:32.050 inspired me too, man. Oh, that's sweet. I love 00:03:32.050 --> 00:03:34.129 you, buddy. So that's a little love on the show 00:03:34.129 --> 00:03:37.229 here. If I could reach over this table, but I 00:03:37.229 --> 00:03:42.210 can't. Set up our Bobblehead. I didn't dust him. 00:03:42.449 --> 00:03:45.650 Bob Ross is my favorite. That's right. Do you 00:03:45.650 --> 00:03:49.969 want the Bob Ross? Steal their shit? Like, hand 00:03:49.969 --> 00:03:51.729 me the Bob Ross. Today is my brother's birthday. 00:03:52.110 --> 00:03:55.169 Bob is his favorite. It came with an easel, but 00:03:55.169 --> 00:03:58.569 I lost it. Among many things that we're here 00:03:58.569 --> 00:04:01.030 to talk about. Is this show that you've got coming 00:04:01.030 --> 00:04:03.169 up with the awesome Ryan Ney Miller who we had 00:04:03.169 --> 00:04:05.050 to listen talking to? You guys just had him on, 00:04:05.050 --> 00:04:07.449 yeah. He's great. We made it very clear, by the 00:04:07.449 --> 00:04:10.330 way. that Mike was already booking Ryan to do 00:04:10.330 --> 00:04:12.530 the show. That is true. But, Maury, you booked 00:04:12.530 --> 00:04:14.469 him on this event, so it just happened to work 00:04:14.469 --> 00:04:16.069 together nicely. Perfectly. How did you time 00:04:16.069 --> 00:04:17.750 that, though? He told me that. He said, oh, I'm 00:04:17.750 --> 00:04:19.189 doing a mad show. I was like, because I thought 00:04:19.189 --> 00:04:20.730 it was because of this. I was like, they got 00:04:20.730 --> 00:04:22.670 you quick, dude. They got you within, like, 20 00:04:22.670 --> 00:04:25.310 minutes. He reached out to us first. Wonderful. 00:04:25.389 --> 00:04:28.209 We're just starting, and to me, this guy's a 00:04:28.209 --> 00:04:30.589 celebrity. He's a big star now. So I was like, 00:04:30.810 --> 00:04:32.610 Jesus Christ, it's my first week, and I got an 00:04:32.610 --> 00:04:35.089 email from this Ryan emailer from AGT to be on, 00:04:35.089 --> 00:04:37.209 and I was like... Yeah, man, we're not really 00:04:37.209 --> 00:04:39.050 up and running yet, but we'll get you on as soon 00:04:39.050 --> 00:04:43.449 as we can. Matt mentioned you set up a show with 00:04:43.449 --> 00:04:44.810 him. I was like, well, fuck yeah. So I wrote 00:04:44.810 --> 00:04:46.170 him back. I said, we're up and running. Your 00:04:46.170 --> 00:04:47.810 show's going. Let's do it. I would love to give 00:04:47.810 --> 00:04:49.949 you the history of Ryan real quick. He was friends 00:04:49.949 --> 00:04:52.029 with Will Phillips, who was also on the show 00:04:52.029 --> 00:04:53.990 that we're doing. He's like, oh, my buddy Ryan's 00:04:53.990 --> 00:04:56.110 real funny. You should put him on. He was touring 00:04:56.110 --> 00:04:58.350 everywhere. He's the hardest working dude in 00:04:58.350 --> 00:05:00.850 comedy. So he would come to Utica area about 00:05:00.850 --> 00:05:03.329 once a year. I would put together six, seven 00:05:03.329 --> 00:05:05.509 shows from where we do a run. And we did that 00:05:05.509 --> 00:05:07.930 for about six years. The shows would vary. Some 00:05:07.930 --> 00:05:09.910 would have 30 people, some would have 100. It 00:05:09.910 --> 00:05:11.550 was just like local comedy at that point. Nobody 00:05:11.550 --> 00:05:14.189 knew them. And we had some crazy, we did like 00:05:14.189 --> 00:05:17.529 an abandoned mall. We did a failed restaurant. 00:05:17.709 --> 00:05:21.269 We did a lot of great comedy spots. The last 00:05:21.269 --> 00:05:24.230 show we did was it was Nicole's in Camden, a 00:05:24.230 --> 00:05:26.850 defunct restaurant. And he leaned into us before 00:05:26.850 --> 00:05:28.389 the show was like, listen, I can't really tell 00:05:28.389 --> 00:05:29.490 anybody this, but I'm going to share it with 00:05:29.490 --> 00:05:32.029 you guys. I got America's Got Talent. And we 00:05:32.029 --> 00:05:33.470 were like, that's amazing. Cause that's just 00:05:33.470 --> 00:05:36.709 a good career thing. No matter what. Not even 00:05:36.709 --> 00:05:38.930 assuming that he was going to become a finalist. 00:05:39.089 --> 00:05:40.529 You just think you're on the show. You get the 00:05:40.529 --> 00:05:42.790 exposure. He is funny enough. He definitely could 00:05:42.790 --> 00:05:45.189 have won the whole thing. But he tell us we're 00:05:45.189 --> 00:05:46.990 excited and then it errors and everything goes 00:05:46.990 --> 00:05:49.829 on. He explodes, you know, goes like a million 00:05:49.829 --> 00:05:52.670 followers. And I'm like, Hey, everybody in Utica 00:05:52.670 --> 00:05:54.970 loves you, man. And he's like, Hey, since we 00:05:54.970 --> 00:05:57.329 ran these tours all these years, can I come back 00:05:57.329 --> 00:05:59.920 and do a show? And at that point, he could have 00:05:59.920 --> 00:06:01.560 did theaters and shit. You know what I mean? 00:06:01.860 --> 00:06:03.740 And I would have totally understood. He could 00:06:03.740 --> 00:06:05.720 have done anything else. And instead of doing 00:06:05.720 --> 00:06:08.620 theaters, we did four shows at Cavallo's. That's 00:06:08.620 --> 00:06:11.439 amazing. We sold out the banquet room four times, 00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:14.079 and it was dope. He gave back, because that paid 00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:17.170 our mortgage. That was a great time. I think 00:06:17.170 --> 00:06:19.269 that's the first time I saw him. He actually 00:06:19.269 --> 00:06:20.949 talked about that. He said, you know, when you 00:06:20.949 --> 00:06:23.329 get on AGT, become more of a star. He's like, 00:06:23.389 --> 00:06:26.550 but I still wanted to go back and do small comedy 00:06:26.550 --> 00:06:28.069 clubs and things like that. Because he could 00:06:28.069 --> 00:06:29.829 have been like, thanks for the, thanks for nothing. 00:06:30.129 --> 00:06:31.730 And he never talked to me again. And I would 00:06:31.730 --> 00:06:33.470 have understood. What's that Halloween place 00:06:33.470 --> 00:06:35.810 that pops up in abandoned places? That's what 00:06:35.810 --> 00:06:37.949 Phil is. Spirit Halloween. Yes. Phil is the spirit 00:06:37.949 --> 00:06:40.889 Halloween of comedy. He just pops up in abandoned 00:06:40.889 --> 00:06:43.790 restaurants. And I love that. I had to pick him 00:06:43.790 --> 00:06:46.980 up. We were doing a show. Messina. My car breaks 00:06:46.980 --> 00:06:49.959 down. I had to go to the airport, get him at 00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:52.639 Hancock, right? So I go to Syracuse. I got a 00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:55.639 rental minivan. It's a blizzard out. It's the 00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:57.800 worst day of the year. The temperature was negative 00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:02.439 43. And it was May, by the way. We get to the 00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:05.399 car. I'm watching him struggle with his bag. 00:07:05.579 --> 00:07:07.120 Because I don't want to be like, you need a handbrake. 00:07:07.220 --> 00:07:09.500 I'm like, he's perfectly capable. And I'm just 00:07:09.500 --> 00:07:13.269 going to let him carry his own shit. You know 00:07:13.269 --> 00:07:15.129 what I mean? There's a line. It's just a dude. 00:07:15.209 --> 00:07:16.689 You don't focus on the disability in any way. 00:07:17.050 --> 00:07:18.569 He carries the shit out all the time. He doesn't 00:07:18.569 --> 00:07:21.310 need my help. We got frostbite going from the 00:07:21.310 --> 00:07:23.250 car. Loading all this equipment. It's gonna be 00:07:23.250 --> 00:07:25.509 a great show, but it was a nightmare. He'll never 00:07:25.509 --> 00:07:28.170 forget that coldest day I've ever experienced. 00:07:28.230 --> 00:07:31.550 That's insane. So the mall was completely abandoned. 00:07:31.870 --> 00:07:33.509 There was a Wendy's and then just a warehouse. 00:07:33.929 --> 00:07:37.009 Like a place where you would do drugs. They filled 00:07:37.009 --> 00:07:39.329 it with chairs and we set up the show and it 00:07:39.329 --> 00:07:41.610 was a hit. The guy that ran the show, his name's 00:07:41.610 --> 00:07:44.209 Elijah, he's still around. He got divorced, I 00:07:44.209 --> 00:07:49.649 think. His wife is like, I'm not dealing with 00:07:49.649 --> 00:07:53.310 this. That was pre -AGT, by the way. It's so 00:07:53.310 --> 00:07:55.370 great. Doesn't bother anybody in Messina. But 00:07:55.370 --> 00:07:57.829 yeah, shout out to anybody that sees some success 00:07:57.829 --> 00:08:01.149 and then feel humble.

I just thought that was your birthstone 00:08:33.090 --> 00:08:35.169 I didn't know I thought birthstone was it was 00:08:35.169 --> 00:08:37.629 your birthstone, but we'll talk about it another 00:08:37.629 --> 00:08:41.149 time This place the burr. There's a lot of birthstones. 00:08:41.169 --> 00:08:46.549 There's an animal hospital the road They had 00:08:46.549 --> 00:08:49.090 to come from oh you were serious. Oh shit. I 00:08:49.090 --> 00:08:50.789 don't know the legend of personal somewhere There's 00:08:50.789 --> 00:08:54.309 gotta be a stone. I like I like you saying Burstown 00:08:54.309 --> 00:08:58.830 instead of Burstown. It's like if you want it 00:08:58.830 --> 00:09:01.889 to appeal to the upper you say it's on Burstown 00:09:01.889 --> 00:09:04.129 Road. That's how you pronounce it. That's right. 00:09:04.769 --> 00:09:06.809 But we should also give some love to Josh Wilbur. 00:09:08.250 --> 00:09:10.750 He's also a comedian. He's a comedian, great 00:09:10.750 --> 00:09:12.750 funny dude. He's also one of our trivia hosts. 00:09:12.830 --> 00:09:15.850 He hosts two of our absolutely jam -packed trivia 00:09:15.850 --> 00:09:18.389 nights every Monday and Thursday. It's part of 00:09:18.389 --> 00:09:19.690 why he's on the show. I was like, he's in bringing 00:09:19.690 --> 00:09:23.230 a lot of people. Yeah. Let's put them on there. 00:09:23.830 --> 00:09:26.149 Yeah. The dude is legitimately funny. I've, I've 00:09:26.149 --> 00:09:28.129 enjoyed any that shows that he's a good dude 00:09:28.129 --> 00:09:30.970 and love his trivia nights, which we should mention. 00:09:31.110 --> 00:09:32.990 So we're talking about these comedy things, but 00:09:32.990 --> 00:09:35.909 really it kind of everyday operation is this 00:09:35.909 --> 00:09:37.830 stage time trivia. Yeah. The bread and butter, 00:09:37.990 --> 00:09:40.289 man. And that one I owe to Will Phillips a lot. 00:09:40.289 --> 00:09:43.370 Cause he was the first trivia host that I saw 00:09:43.370 --> 00:09:45.850 hosting. Do he was doing comedy with trivia? 00:09:45.850 --> 00:09:48.399 And I was like, Oh, this is fun. I don't even 00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:52.720 like trivia. You have a script to follow loosely. 00:09:52.940 --> 00:09:54.960 You can kind of riff on it. He killed it. I was 00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:57.080 like, oh, this is a brand. You want to team up 00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:59.580 and make this a brand. And he was like, OK, what's 00:09:59.580 --> 00:10:01.179 the pay? I was like, it's going to pay good. 00:10:02.000 --> 00:10:04.399 We're doing great. We're in eight locations weekly 00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:06.659 in the Utica area. We got one in Syracuse now. 00:10:06.799 --> 00:10:07.980 We're at ALOF. We've been there for a while. 00:10:08.379 --> 00:10:11.759 We have 62 locations nationwide that run our 00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:16.269 game. That's amazing. That's the website. We 00:10:16.269 --> 00:10:18.830 offer a content subscription service. Matt helped 00:10:18.830 --> 00:10:21.190 me design. He built the original website. Genius. 00:10:21.289 --> 00:10:23.649 Go figure, right? That's the thing where I mentioned 00:10:23.649 --> 00:10:26.769 at the top how Phil is a genius in business. 00:10:27.029 --> 00:10:30.230 He had this great bar trivia business going around 00:10:30.230 --> 00:10:32.370 town and you see these all over the country. 00:10:33.549 --> 00:10:35.730 He had this idea. How can we take this and expand 00:10:35.730 --> 00:10:38.549 beyond what I can physically go to every day? 00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:42.220 their secret sauce is the actual comedy a lot 00:10:42.220 --> 00:10:44.200 of folks might not know it's not random like 00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:46.620 trivial pursuit questions you guys actually write 00:10:46.620 --> 00:10:50.279 a custom full package every week of multiple 00:10:50.279 --> 00:10:55.039 rounds and topical things and that content is 00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:57.559 gold so the picture round is always my favorite 00:10:57.559 --> 00:10:59.360 because you never know if you're gonna get something 00:10:59.360 --> 00:11:02.340 you know on the naughty side People have like 00:11:02.340 --> 00:11:05.320 ten different balls. You gotta identify the testicles. 00:11:05.340 --> 00:11:07.299 I love that. The old testicle test. The porn 00:11:07.299 --> 00:11:11.299 star. That's why I love this business model specifically 00:11:11.299 --> 00:11:16.080 for you because Okay, so this is your bread and 00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:18.080 butter. You don't even like trivia, right? But 00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:19.440 it's not like you're sitting there going, yeah, 00:11:19.440 --> 00:11:21.000 I got to do this to pay the bills and then I 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:23.139 do stand -up. It's scratching that stand -up 00:11:23.139 --> 00:11:25.179 itch for you. You're still performing. I think 00:11:25.179 --> 00:11:27.000 it's the perfect gig for someone like you. Oh, 00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:28.820 this is it for sure, man. Comedy is somewhat 00:11:28.820 --> 00:11:32.429 taking a back seat to this. Which explains my 00:11:32.429 --> 00:11:35.070 depression now. I'm just sunken into the couch. 00:11:35.269 --> 00:11:38.889 But for me, like, looking at it that way, I think 00:11:38.889 --> 00:11:41.470 it would scratch that itch for me. I don't necessarily 00:11:41.470 --> 00:11:43.690 think that the stand -up's taking a back seat. 00:11:43.789 --> 00:11:46.070 I think it's another form. Like, you're doing 00:11:46.070 --> 00:11:47.690 stand -up. You're just doing it as the host of 00:11:47.690 --> 00:11:49.450 a trivia thing. I think it's great. Yeah, you 00:11:49.450 --> 00:11:51.830 get a built -in crowd. It's almost like if you 00:11:51.830 --> 00:11:54.990 did comedy with an audience and good pay. This 00:11:54.990 --> 00:11:56.870 is great and this is the only way to go. This 00:11:56.870 --> 00:11:58.429 is what it could be like. That was the original 00:11:58.429 --> 00:12:00.250 business plan. I was going to pitch this to comics 00:12:00.250 --> 00:12:03.370 as a way to improve, make some money, pick up 00:12:03.370 --> 00:12:05.110 gigs on weeknights that where you'd normally 00:12:05.110 --> 00:12:08.509 would not have any work. Yeah, yeah. Oh yeah. 00:12:08.509 --> 00:12:10.870 The only reason I didn't is because I was really 00:12:10.870 --> 00:12:13.169 heavily considering taking that leap. There's 00:12:13.169 --> 00:12:15.250 a lot of great folks. What we learned was comics 00:12:15.250 --> 00:12:17.870 are lazy and flaky and terrible people really. 00:12:17.950 --> 00:12:20.429 So we just started selling it to bars. Listen, 00:12:21.090 --> 00:12:23.049 if there's ever a more honorable customer, it's 00:12:23.049 --> 00:12:27.320 a bar. Yeah, we need them. So hot. So let's say 00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:30.059 We're a bar preferably a gay bar. We want to 00:12:30.059 --> 00:12:31.960 do the stage trim to stage time trivia thing 00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:34.580 Take me through it. So you're gonna visit stage 00:12:34.580 --> 00:12:37.980 time trivia comm The website is undergoing a 00:12:37.980 --> 00:12:39.860 facelift right now. So that's gonna look different 00:12:39.860 --> 00:12:42.000 sort shortly, but there's a free game download 00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:44.200 There's a try it free button. You can click that 00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:46.159 try a free game. You just print it out It'll 00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:48.639 give you all the materials questions handouts 00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:51.240 instructions everything. We have an online tutorial 00:12:51.450 --> 00:12:53.210 on there as well teach you how to run the game 00:12:53.210 --> 00:12:55.190 pretty easy to walk through if you like it you 00:12:55.190 --> 00:12:56.889 want to keep running it every week you subscribe 00:12:56.889 --> 00:12:59.330 it's a hundred dollars a month works out to be 00:12:59.330 --> 00:13:01.950 less than 25 dollars a game and every sunday 00:13:01.950 --> 00:13:04.990 we email you a complete new game got some topical 00:13:04.990 --> 00:13:08.210 questions on there all original content and it's 00:13:08.210 --> 00:13:10.570 not all testicles by the way mostly testicles 00:13:10.570 --> 00:13:14.210 but it's not all testicles the real problem that 00:13:14.210 --> 00:13:16.490 it solves is creating the game people will start 00:13:16.490 --> 00:13:18.029 a trivia night and they'll come up with questions 00:13:18.269 --> 00:13:20.009 After the first two weeks, you're like, this 00:13:20.009 --> 00:13:22.710 takes a ton of time to come up with the good 00:13:22.710 --> 00:13:24.669 questions. You got to create the handouts. There's 00:13:24.669 --> 00:13:26.570 graphic design involved, a lot of stuff to do. 00:13:26.750 --> 00:13:29.769 That could take six hours. Put a full game together. 00:13:30.169 --> 00:13:33.029 If you got a bar or if you're hosting, you have 00:13:33.029 --> 00:13:35.190 other stuff you got to do. So that part's done. 00:13:35.250 --> 00:13:37.710 The work's done for you. How do you find new 00:13:37.710 --> 00:13:39.490 material, like new questions and things like 00:13:39.490 --> 00:13:41.570 that? So Phillips is our head writer. He does 00:13:41.570 --> 00:13:44.519 all the content creation. We source some questions 00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:48.100 from the internet. We utilize chat GPT. Sometimes 00:13:48.100 --> 00:13:52.080 you're just like, ah, I wonder if Napoleon had, 00:13:52.299 --> 00:13:53.860 how many wives he had. So you think of something 00:13:53.860 --> 00:13:57.879 and it becomes trivia. So it's not the typical 00:13:57.879 --> 00:13:59.539 cookie cutter trivia questions. You can play 00:13:59.539 --> 00:14:01.720 one of those games and we'll get a couple of 00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:03.279 questions. They're like, oh, I know that. And 00:14:03.279 --> 00:14:05.000 you'll get another one. That's just like, why? 00:14:05.120 --> 00:14:06.500 They're typically too hard. People are like, 00:14:06.500 --> 00:14:08.789 oh, this sucks. I don't know anything. Yeah. 00:14:09.269 --> 00:14:11.590 So we find just the right balance. Sure. It's 00:14:11.590 --> 00:14:13.769 for bars, too. It's for, like, guys like us. 00:14:14.029 --> 00:14:17.990 Idiots. Stupid. Morons. Fat idiots. Yeah. Wait 00:14:17.990 --> 00:14:21.789 a minute. You're the smartest. Smelly, dumb, 00:14:22.629 --> 00:14:26.269 stupid. Ugly. That's our customer. The last time 00:14:26.269 --> 00:14:28.549 I played at the Aloft, I won the game. Well, 00:14:28.710 --> 00:14:30.710 that doesn't surprise me. I think I got a free 00:14:30.710 --> 00:14:34.750 gift. I found that with karaoke in my travels 00:14:34.750 --> 00:14:37.730 and performing over the year, karaoke and trivia 00:14:37.730 --> 00:14:43.110 has this sect of culture. And I'm asking if you've 00:14:43.110 --> 00:14:45.299 encountered this. Where there's people that show 00:14:45.299 --> 00:14:48.259 up every week and they are very serious about 00:14:48.259 --> 00:14:51.220 diehards. Die hard. You got that? You get that? 00:14:51.220 --> 00:14:52.740 Yeah, yeah, exactly. It's part of what makes 00:14:52.740 --> 00:14:54.840 the business work. Oh no, our guys are cool. 00:14:54.980 --> 00:14:56.720 Our regulars are cool. But yeah, in a typical 00:14:56.720 --> 00:14:59.500 trivia night, people do take it too seriously. 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:01.620 We discourage that. We use comedy to do that. 00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:03.480 Stop being an idiot, smart asshole. It's meant 00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:05.100 to be fun. You're drinking, you're hanging out 00:15:05.100 --> 00:15:06.860 with your friends. You don't want to leave feeling 00:15:06.860 --> 00:15:10.000 stupid. It's not that serious. I love the diehards. 00:15:10.080 --> 00:15:12.500 So we should talk to this... Lovely young lady 00:15:12.500 --> 00:15:15.080 who's sitting right next to us. Scoot right up 00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:18.299 to the mic. Can I scoot the mic to her? Oh, that 00:15:18.299 --> 00:15:19.879 works better. Yeah, because I'm not going to 00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:22.299 reach this table. Little. Our good friend Kelly 00:15:22.299 --> 00:15:25.379 here has recently joined the ranks of the business. 00:15:26.080 --> 00:15:28.740 How long since you opened? Almost. I opened April 00:15:28.740 --> 00:15:31.799 1st. Tell folks what you do and please. Well, 00:15:31.799 --> 00:15:34.379 I'm a licensed esthetician. I worked for the 00:15:34.379 --> 00:15:37.779 state for 20 years and hated my life and decided 00:15:37.779 --> 00:15:39.779 to go back to school. She was a corrections officer. 00:15:40.750 --> 00:15:42.870 I did work at the prison with the sex offenders. 00:15:43.110 --> 00:15:45.649 I got fed up with the day to day, the mundane 00:15:45.649 --> 00:15:48.590 and went back to school. It was a four month 00:15:48.590 --> 00:15:52.190 program. Good for you. It was like super convenient, 00:15:52.429 --> 00:15:55.830 appealed to my ADHD, you know, like quick done 00:15:55.830 --> 00:15:57.750 to the point. Like, you don't got to mess with 00:15:57.750 --> 00:16:00.789 all the extracurriculars and shit. I decided 00:16:00.789 --> 00:16:03.889 that after that most estheticians don't do this 00:16:03.889 --> 00:16:06.909 and I don't recommend it for anyone. But I jumped 00:16:06.909 --> 00:16:10.009 right into it and opened my own place. I'm located 00:16:10.009 --> 00:16:13.710 within a larger entity, which appeals to my more 00:16:13.710 --> 00:16:16.029 witchy side. I get to do the holistic kind of 00:16:16.029 --> 00:16:18.950 stuff. I work out of a new attitude in Barneville, 00:16:19.210 --> 00:16:22.809 which is a very small town, but I love it. I 00:16:22.809 --> 00:16:26.710 like being the local hometown esthetician. And 00:16:26.710 --> 00:16:29.590 I can also offer like the infrared sauna and 00:16:29.590 --> 00:16:32.450 the halo salt therapy room. We even got a two 00:16:32.450 --> 00:16:37.190 person giant. Salt tank flow anti -gravity. It's 00:16:37.190 --> 00:16:41.429 wild. Look great. Yes, men can come and get their 00:16:41.429 --> 00:16:43.929 face. Stop using your shampoo. You look glowing. 00:16:44.929 --> 00:16:48.149 What is this? I even rub his head. I do his head, 00:16:48.309 --> 00:16:50.070 too. It's nice to get your beard all cleaned 00:16:50.070 --> 00:16:52.049 out and stuff. You wouldn't believe the funk. 00:16:52.149 --> 00:16:54.289 I'll say this. I've never considered it as a 00:16:54.289 --> 00:16:57.710 man, ever, to go and get spa treatment. Oh, no. 00:16:57.990 --> 00:17:00.269 Absolutely. Oh, dude. It's glorious. I saw my 00:17:00.269 --> 00:17:02.509 friends open a place. Let me go check it. Oh, 00:17:02.509 --> 00:17:05.650 it's beautiful, dude. Yeah, she does waxing. 00:17:05.789 --> 00:17:07.750 I mean, why don't you list your services? I can 00:17:07.750 --> 00:17:11.269 do pretty much anything. I do all -natural lash 00:17:11.269 --> 00:17:13.950 lift and tints. I'm a more natural girly myself. 00:17:13.950 --> 00:17:17.029 I can't deal with the extensions. It's too much 00:17:17.029 --> 00:17:19.930 upkeep. I could do that too. I don't want to 00:17:19.930 --> 00:17:22.109 sit there for three hours monkeying with lashes 00:17:22.109 --> 00:17:24.490 one by one. The lash lift and tints appeal to 00:17:24.490 --> 00:17:29.930 me. I do waxing, a whole slew of facials. I like 00:17:29.930 --> 00:17:32.500 the science part of it. I like the gadgets. I 00:17:32.500 --> 00:17:34.660 like learn about the science behind it all and 00:17:34.660 --> 00:17:38.440 how it works. So I do chem peels and nano -needling. 00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:41.099 I would love to do micro -needling, but New York 00:17:41.099 --> 00:17:43.400 State won't allow us to do it. And they kind 00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:46.460 of revoke that on us. If you don't know what 00:17:46.460 --> 00:17:49.059 you're talking about, it's okay. What are the 00:17:49.059 --> 00:17:51.880 three best guys you could talk to about? Is that 00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:54.500 like acupuncture? Acupuncture is more like trying 00:17:54.500 --> 00:17:58.220 to target a specific nerve. Nano -needling, micro 00:17:58.220 --> 00:18:01.339 -needling, you're trying to really As we age, 00:18:01.539 --> 00:18:03.539 we lose our collagen and everything. So we want 00:18:03.539 --> 00:18:06.420 to really preserve that by creating these micro 00:18:06.420 --> 00:18:09.359 injuries in the skin. It's like when you get 00:18:09.359 --> 00:18:11.759 a deep tissue massage and you're trying to purposely 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:17.319 inflame the area. But I do it within a nice sterile 00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:20.279 environment. So I never had one in my life. You 00:18:20.279 --> 00:18:22.019 go to Barnaval, right? You walk in the door. 00:18:22.180 --> 00:18:25.640 This place smells amazing, dude. It's lavender. 00:18:26.630 --> 00:18:28.869 And eucalyptus. Smells amazing. I love it already. 00:18:28.890 --> 00:18:30.269 I don't know if you smelled Kelly, she smells 00:18:30.269 --> 00:18:32.130 like this. I feel like she was having it. Yeah, 00:18:32.430 --> 00:18:34.369 the spa is very warm, and you get in there, you 00:18:34.369 --> 00:18:37.930 start sweating, you sweat out all the gunk. It's 00:18:37.930 --> 00:18:41.630 a dry sauna, so yeah, you might sweat and detox. 00:18:41.829 --> 00:18:44.630 You get in there, and that lasts for 20 minutes 00:18:44.630 --> 00:18:46.690 or something? 30 minutes. You last until you 00:18:46.690 --> 00:18:49.509 think you're going to die. It's unbearable, and 00:18:49.509 --> 00:18:51.069 it feels like the depths of hell. And then when 00:18:51.069 --> 00:18:53.509 you open the door, you get hit with cool air, 00:18:53.569 --> 00:18:56.539 and you're totally refreshed. And revived. Can 00:18:56.539 --> 00:19:00.519 we shoot the three of us going there? Oh, yeah. 00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:03.460 We'll do the full, the full. You guys can try 00:19:03.460 --> 00:19:06.339 each one of the services. My facials are anywhere 00:19:06.339 --> 00:19:08.680 from an hour to an hour and a half. Once you 00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:10.660 get in the facial, you go in the smaller room. 00:19:10.960 --> 00:19:13.859 It's like a bed that you lay, but it's a bed 00:19:13.859 --> 00:19:15.740 chair thing. And you get in, there's the most 00:19:15.740 --> 00:19:17.940 comfortable chair I've ever been in my entire 00:19:17.940 --> 00:19:20.380 life. Three layers of foam. Three layers of foam. 00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:22.319 Hand -caught. That's a lot of foam. Yeah. Yeah. 00:19:22.420 --> 00:19:24.000 And when you're in there, you're looking up. 00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:26.900 at kelly right which you're already that's already 00:19:26.900 --> 00:19:28.440 pretty good yeah he's the only one that keeps 00:19:28.440 --> 00:19:30.380 his eyes open and i keep telling him please don't 00:19:30.380 --> 00:19:32.720 do that i'm very meticulous but i might get soap 00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:36.339 in your eyes you can close your eyes fell and 00:19:36.339 --> 00:19:39.039 relax i don't want to it's so relaxing i've fallen 00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:41.279 asleep in the setup multiple times it starts 00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:43.140 with this face scrub and then there's a massage 00:19:43.140 --> 00:19:45.059 thing and that you don't know what's happening 00:19:45.390 --> 00:19:48.150 But you're feeling, like, lotions and fucking... 00:19:48.150 --> 00:19:50.789 Oh, there's a towel. Tell them about the towel. 00:19:51.509 --> 00:19:53.750 The hot towel. Yeah, everybody likes the hot 00:19:53.750 --> 00:19:56.029 towel. Hot towels are everything. When I go to 00:19:56.029 --> 00:19:58.809 the barber, that's the best part. She's got so 00:19:58.809 --> 00:20:00.410 many hot towels. I go through, like, six of them. 00:20:00.410 --> 00:20:02.750 And they're so hot. It feels like you need to 00:20:02.750 --> 00:20:05.250 go to the hospital afterwards. It's just so hot. 00:20:05.809 --> 00:20:08.170 It burns. It's like your skin starts to peel 00:20:08.170 --> 00:20:10.390 off, dude. Like that scene from Indiana Jones. 00:20:10.390 --> 00:20:11.769 I try to shake it off, but sometimes I like to 00:20:11.769 --> 00:20:14.490 burn them on purpose. It's so nice. Sometimes 00:20:14.490 --> 00:20:17.589 I have to ask her to show me what she's using. 00:20:17.730 --> 00:20:19.390 Cause I'll feel something and I'm like, I try 00:20:19.390 --> 00:20:21.710 to show people now, you know what I mean? I explain 00:20:21.710 --> 00:20:23.789 what it does. It's the ultrasonic skin scrubber, 00:20:23.890 --> 00:20:30.609 which I love. You don't need to understand it. 00:20:30.690 --> 00:20:32.950 That's what I'm telling you. It's so glorious 00:20:32.950 --> 00:20:36.259 and relaxing. Is it all sorts of different processes 00:20:36.259 --> 00:20:39.140 or is it one full probably? So my number one 00:20:39.140 --> 00:20:41.640 seller, and this is probably because I like to 00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:44.480 do custom facials. So I can really gear it towards 00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:48.059 anything. So I can use any of my modalities like 00:20:48.059 --> 00:20:50.559 my high -frequency wand or the ultrasonic skin 00:20:50.559 --> 00:20:53.579 scrubber, which I call the BT Micro because that's 00:20:53.579 --> 00:20:55.759 the brand that makes it that I like. I can do 00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:58.400 a vast variety of things and I customize it all 00:20:58.400 --> 00:21:00.500 the way through. What would you do differently 00:21:00.500 --> 00:21:02.599 from one person to another? Oh my God. Are you 00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:04.519 kidding? There's so many different skin types. 00:21:05.460 --> 00:21:08.299 This is where my ADHD comes as a perk within 00:21:08.299 --> 00:21:11.460 this job because everybody has a different routine. 00:21:11.680 --> 00:21:14.299 Not everybody is going to go home and want to 00:21:14.299 --> 00:21:16.759 do a 10 step skincare routine. Those people, 00:21:16.759 --> 00:21:19.799 I try to find things, keep it as simple and basic, 00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:23.119 like all in one cream so I can make recommendations. 00:21:23.420 --> 00:21:25.599 I'll go all out in the treatment room because 00:21:25.599 --> 00:21:28.650 that's what they're there for. As far as like 00:21:28.650 --> 00:21:30.789 home care and that sort of stuff, you know, I 00:21:30.789 --> 00:21:34.789 try to make recommendations based on their lifestyle, 00:21:35.069 --> 00:21:36.970 diet. I mean, there's so many different factors. 00:21:36.970 --> 00:21:39.470 So there's a consulting. Oh God, yeah. Very big 00:21:39.470 --> 00:21:43.190 on the consultation. Yes, very big. And my regulars 00:21:43.190 --> 00:21:45.269 that come in, you know, I know them, I usually 00:21:45.269 --> 00:21:47.369 ask, has there been any significant changes? 00:21:47.490 --> 00:21:49.309 But yeah, I always creep people out because if 00:21:49.309 --> 00:21:51.470 you've got breakups in this lower trim area, 00:21:51.589 --> 00:21:53.089 I'm like, you've got your period, don't you? 00:21:53.329 --> 00:21:56.160 Oh, Chris. They're gonna get it soon, huh? They're 00:21:56.160 --> 00:21:59.039 like, how the hell do you know? And I'm like, 00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:01.920 well, it's in this little area. You got GI issues 00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:04.619 going on. How's your diet? Like, I can tell by 00:22:04.619 --> 00:22:07.279 its face. Could you look at our skin and be like, 00:22:07.380 --> 00:22:14.000 IBS? No, not that. Right. Yeah. Yeah. But usually, 00:22:14.000 --> 00:22:16.619 you know, people ask me. Everything you do is 00:22:16.619 --> 00:22:18.380 skin -based. Do you do anything with hair or 00:22:18.380 --> 00:22:20.440 massage or anything like that? No, there's so 00:22:20.440 --> 00:22:23.160 many different technicians and things that New 00:22:23.160 --> 00:22:26.700 York State really doesn't like us to bleed into 00:22:26.700 --> 00:22:29.339 anything else. And they're very strict. That's 00:22:29.339 --> 00:22:31.480 why I can't do the microneedling right now, because 00:22:31.480 --> 00:22:34.279 it's more of a medical thing at the moment. Although 00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:37.200 I can do anything with the epidermis. Your skin 00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:39.480 is your biggest organ. It covers your whole body. 00:22:39.480 --> 00:22:43.670 So really... It's all in how I word things. I 00:22:43.670 --> 00:22:46.589 can't necessarily offer a hair treatment, but 00:22:46.589 --> 00:22:49.990 I can offer a scalp treatment. I see what you're 00:22:49.990 --> 00:22:51.650 saying. My scalp has never been nicer. Dude, 00:22:51.730 --> 00:22:54.750 you look three weeks younger. He's been brave 00:22:54.750 --> 00:22:56.950 enough that we've done a couple of compials on 00:22:56.950 --> 00:22:58.589 this little dark spot right here. You actually 00:22:58.589 --> 00:23:00.109 do look good, though. I haven't seen you in a 00:23:00.109 --> 00:23:01.589 while. You look good. You should look at his 00:23:01.589 --> 00:23:06.750 nose. It's weird. He's a regular customer. They 00:23:06.750 --> 00:23:09.410 really want to take good care. How often is that? 00:23:09.490 --> 00:23:12.069 Do they come to see you weekly, monthly? How's 00:23:12.069 --> 00:23:16.049 that work? Once a month. If I have clients that 00:23:16.049 --> 00:23:17.930 are really consistent with their skincare, I 00:23:17.930 --> 00:23:20.069 usually have them come once every six weeks, 00:23:20.170 --> 00:23:22.970 but I also take their budget into consideration 00:23:22.970 --> 00:23:25.710 too. I understand you got responsibilities and 00:23:25.710 --> 00:23:29.490 I'm a luxury. I get that. It's really healthcare, 00:23:30.289 --> 00:23:33.109 but not everybody can be afforded that luxury 00:23:33.109 --> 00:23:35.680 to take care of themselves. I'm telling you the 00:23:35.680 --> 00:23:38.240 self -care aspect of it. I see such a difference 00:23:38.240 --> 00:23:41.819 in my clients when they finally start paying 00:23:41.819 --> 00:23:44.319 attention to themselves for once. A lot of them 00:23:44.319 --> 00:23:47.440 are moms. They got busy lives. They're working. 00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:49.460 They're finally at that point in their career 00:23:49.460 --> 00:23:51.779 where they got true responsibilities too. It's 00:23:51.779 --> 00:23:54.900 like tug and pull and usually you let yourself 00:23:54.900 --> 00:23:57.220 go. One day you wake up and you're like, oh shit, 00:23:57.220 --> 00:23:59.980 I look old. I should do something about that. 00:24:00.180 --> 00:24:03.140 I've been going through that. Is the idea to 00:24:03.140 --> 00:24:06.680 kind of... intervene on the aging process or 00:24:06.680 --> 00:24:08.640 is it just more of a look -good -feel -good, 00:24:08.660 --> 00:24:10.920 a mixture of everything? It depends on person. 00:24:11.539 --> 00:24:14.279 My spiel is healthy skin. I just want you to 00:24:14.279 --> 00:24:16.440 have healthy skin. Nobody's skin is perfect. 00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:20.880 I would rather teach people how to utilize ingredients 00:24:20.880 --> 00:24:23.240 that are actually beneficial to their skin. I 00:24:23.240 --> 00:24:26.140 like my clients to leave knowing something about 00:24:26.140 --> 00:24:28.700 themselves and how to truly help themselves. 00:24:28.740 --> 00:24:30.400 Some of them don't even know their skin type. 00:24:30.799 --> 00:24:33.650 How are you choosing products? Not knowing your 00:24:33.650 --> 00:24:35.750 skin type. You don't just buy a bar of soap? 00:24:36.549 --> 00:24:40.190 I'll teach you, Nat. Lever 2000. Yeah, you got 00:24:40.190 --> 00:24:43.390 a lot of Lever 2000. Zest fully clean. So I guess 00:24:43.390 --> 00:24:46.109 I compare it to kind of like with mental health 00:24:46.109 --> 00:24:48.109 therapy, right? People think you go in and they 00:24:48.109 --> 00:24:49.490 fix you and you leave. It's like, well, there's 00:24:49.490 --> 00:24:51.089 a lot of work that has to be done. They give 00:24:51.089 --> 00:24:53.690 you some tools to use outside. So it sounds like 00:24:53.690 --> 00:24:55.549 you kind of do that too. Yes. You talk about 00:24:55.549 --> 00:24:57.069 diet and stuff like that. So if you really want 00:24:57.069 --> 00:25:00.410 your skin to look amazing, it really comes down 00:25:00.410 --> 00:25:03.700 to you. Yeah. I can only handle about 20 % of 00:25:03.700 --> 00:25:08.220 it, you know, an increase to your benefits. But 00:25:08.220 --> 00:25:12.079 the other 80 % is honestly, because consistency, 00:25:12.559 --> 00:25:15.230 you have to be consistent. And most of us aren't 00:25:15.230 --> 00:25:17.329 in our lives right now. You know what I mean? 00:25:17.450 --> 00:25:19.630 We don't wash our face before bed. I'm too tired. 00:25:19.710 --> 00:25:21.069 I don't want to do it. I don't want to deal with 00:25:21.069 --> 00:25:22.710 it. But I tell you, it's going to make a difference 00:25:22.710 --> 00:25:25.829 if you do. To be washing my face? I use the pads 00:25:25.829 --> 00:25:28.569 before bed. Is that bad? The hydrocolloidal pads? 00:25:29.150 --> 00:25:31.970 The acne pads? I don't know if it's oxy. I think 00:25:31.970 --> 00:25:36.289 it's the peel ones or the hydricals. Those are 00:25:36.289 --> 00:25:38.630 fantastic. It actually is just protecting your 00:25:38.630 --> 00:25:41.650 skin barrier. It helps draw a little bit of fluid 00:25:41.650 --> 00:25:45.500 in there. But it decreases scarring. I mean, 00:25:45.500 --> 00:25:48.240 there's so many different benefits. So, what 00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:51.779 are some basic things that the everyday Joe could 00:25:51.779 --> 00:25:56.140 do for their skin? Please wear a screen. Please. 00:25:56.900 --> 00:25:58.960 I feel like there's so many great sunscreens 00:25:58.960 --> 00:26:02.359 out there now. What number? What would be a good 00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:06.099 SPF? You want a 30 SPF and you want it broad 00:26:06.099 --> 00:26:09.700 spectrum. So it covers all the rays. UVA is aging 00:26:09.700 --> 00:26:12.319 rays. Thought that was like a brand name. You 00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:14.319 just knew you were on the spectrum. I always 00:26:14.319 --> 00:26:17.500 knew I was on the spectrum. UVB is burning. Okay. 00:26:17.579 --> 00:26:19.900 And then there's UVC, which are the cancer causing 00:26:19.900 --> 00:26:21.980 or ozone kind of takes care of that for the time 00:26:21.980 --> 00:26:25.200 being. But, you know. Geez. I just want to emphasize. 00:26:25.359 --> 00:26:26.960 I never would have thought it was for men. I 00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:28.880 was like, oh, this is a service for women. It's 00:26:28.880 --> 00:26:31.619 awesome. I go every month. It's a treat. Have 00:26:31.619 --> 00:26:33.819 you ever had your face massaged? There's a part 00:26:33.819 --> 00:26:36.470 where... You got sinus issues. You're feeling 00:26:36.470 --> 00:26:39.069 puffy. The massage purr is one of my all -time 00:26:39.069 --> 00:26:40.470 favorites. You took some massage with the... 00:26:40.470 --> 00:26:42.609 So usually I start out with a double cleanse. 00:26:42.890 --> 00:26:46.349 Okay. Then I go into extractions. I do it very, 00:26:46.349 --> 00:26:49.130 very gently. It's luxurious. And then I go in 00:26:49.130 --> 00:26:51.970 when I exfoliate. It's usually an enzyme type 00:26:51.970 --> 00:26:55.109 mask, which I love. We should do one. Get on 00:26:55.109 --> 00:26:57.869 a table. You got a little bit of that steam going 00:26:57.869 --> 00:26:59.609 and hot towels and all that. Oh, I forgot. Steam 00:26:59.609 --> 00:27:01.730 machine? Yeah. So you lay down and it puts hot 00:27:01.730 --> 00:27:04.109 steam. right into your face. Let's say you've 00:27:04.109 --> 00:27:05.809 been out drinking all night, right? And then 00:27:05.809 --> 00:27:08.549 it's like two in the morning, your buddy's got 00:27:08.549 --> 00:27:11.109 some toots. You're like, uh -oh. Now you're all 00:27:11.109 --> 00:27:14.730 clogged up. You go see her the next day. It's 00:27:14.730 --> 00:27:18.430 like sinuses clear, head congestion gone, hangover 00:27:18.430 --> 00:27:20.710 helped. Like, it's so nice, man. It's really 00:27:20.710 --> 00:27:23.029 great. Sunscreen's one thing we can do on our 00:27:23.029 --> 00:27:25.329 own. And you think watching your face before 00:27:25.329 --> 00:27:27.329 bed, is that another thing? What are some other 00:27:27.329 --> 00:27:29.250 regular loads? Not to have to wash their face 00:27:29.250 --> 00:27:31.329 twice a day. You can do a rinse in the morning. 00:27:31.400 --> 00:27:34.880 I suggest double cleansing at night at the very 00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:37.579 least. You mean double it? Like you clean it 00:27:37.579 --> 00:27:39.279 and then clean it? You have to use an oil -based 00:27:39.279 --> 00:27:42.960 cleanser and then a water -based cleanser. Do 00:27:42.960 --> 00:27:45.819 you learn? Yeah. If you wear makeup, double cleansing 00:27:45.819 --> 00:27:49.400 really helps to eat away at the oil without stripping 00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:52.670 your skin. Gene Simmons must be a nightmare for 00:27:52.670 --> 00:27:54.970 these people. Do they wear makeup like that? 00:27:55.029 --> 00:27:57.750 I would hate to do a gig where you had to go 00:27:57.750 --> 00:28:00.269 full makeup every time. Yeah. The thing with 00:28:00.269 --> 00:28:02.369 celebrities meet the kids. Yeah. It's like, oh, 00:28:02.450 --> 00:28:03.930 Gene, you got to go meet this kid. He's dying. 00:28:04.089 --> 00:28:07.670 I need eight hours. I just, oh my god. Just let 00:28:07.670 --> 00:28:10.769 the kid die. I could not put full makeup on him. 00:28:10.769 --> 00:28:13.380 No, I know. What if he never takes it off? I 00:28:13.380 --> 00:28:15.359 would just leave it on. Just be easier. That 00:28:15.359 --> 00:28:17.140 would drive it crazy. You gotta wipe off the 00:28:17.140 --> 00:28:19.240 juice man. Dr. Pimple Popper. That's a whole 00:28:19.240 --> 00:28:21.200 world now. It is. There's a whole culture of 00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:23.000 people that... Like, wear gloves. Please don't 00:28:23.000 --> 00:28:26.079 pop your pimples. I always say don't pick. Oh, 00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:28.380 I'd do my whole life. Your hands have been everywhere. 00:28:29.000 --> 00:28:31.160 Do you really scrub your nails all crazy before 00:28:31.160 --> 00:28:33.579 you go and pop your pimples? So yeah, please 00:28:33.579 --> 00:28:37.380 don't do that. wear gloves or use Q -tips. That's 00:28:37.380 --> 00:28:40.099 my little trick. Or come to me. Get a nice, deep 00:28:40.099 --> 00:28:42.680 clean. Danny's back there doing everything you're 00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:46.339 saying. He's exfoliating right now. It's amazing. 00:28:46.960 --> 00:28:48.839 What's the craziest pimple you've ever had? There 00:28:48.839 --> 00:28:50.079 is a question I don't think we ever had. Oh, 00:28:50.140 --> 00:28:52.759 that was in school, actually. So we used to, 00:28:53.140 --> 00:28:55.880 for real. What grade? In duty school. People 00:28:55.880 --> 00:28:57.880 could come from up the street and we would get 00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:00.750 to practice. You got a boil? I wasn't sure what 00:29:00.750 --> 00:29:02.710 the hell this thing was. I called my teacher 00:29:02.710 --> 00:29:06.049 over, but it was a blackhead that had basically 00:29:06.049 --> 00:29:08.950 tunneled underneath and connected to another 00:29:08.950 --> 00:29:11.849 one next to it. It was wild. And I knew it was 00:29:11.849 --> 00:29:14.430 a blackhead, but I was like, am I going to pop 00:29:14.430 --> 00:29:17.309 that thing? My teacher came and I loved her. 00:29:17.509 --> 00:29:19.609 Miss Rita, she's the best at Continental Store. 00:29:20.230 --> 00:29:22.589 But she was like, yeah, and you should have seen 00:29:22.589 --> 00:29:25.390 the crap that came out of it. Dr. Pimple popper 00:29:25.390 --> 00:29:29.339 anesthetist. No, no, they can. do all the things. 00:29:29.700 --> 00:29:34.440 Okay. You can say Esty too. We just got a crash 00:29:34.440 --> 00:29:38.019 course in skincare. That's more than I've ever 00:29:38.019 --> 00:29:41.440 learned in my entire career. That's true. You 00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:43.339 started right where I did. I didn't know anything. 00:29:43.740 --> 00:29:45.599 Yeah. You're going to touch my face for an hour? 00:29:45.819 --> 00:29:47.839 All right. Let's go. I think guys like the pampering 00:29:47.839 --> 00:29:52.599 aspect. Everybody does, but you know, but I feel 00:29:52.599 --> 00:29:54.859 like I'm speaking for all men when it's like, 00:29:55.299 --> 00:29:57.819 it's not that we don't Believe in your services. 00:29:57.839 --> 00:30:00.599 I just we don't think about our skin other than 00:30:00.599 --> 00:30:03.460 I gotta get rid of work, you know Yeah, usually 00:30:03.460 --> 00:30:06.079 you go to your girlfriends or wives and say hey, 00:30:06.079 --> 00:30:09.079 can you look at this? Yeah, exactly. Who's checking 00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:11.319 your skin that thoroughly though? You know what 00:30:11.319 --> 00:30:13.799 I mean? There's lots of skin cancers Especially 00:30:13.799 --> 00:30:16.319 if you don't wear sunscreen. I go to a dermatologist 00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:18.599 once a year. That's great I hate it because they 00:30:18.599 --> 00:30:22.019 always free shit or inject in and scrape it off 00:30:22.019 --> 00:30:24.420 Wow. Yeah, I look like I have infatigle on my 00:30:24.420 --> 00:30:27.269 chest right now. They Chopped off a thing. I 00:30:27.269 --> 00:30:29.470 don't know. They're just like, it could be cancer. 00:30:29.609 --> 00:30:31.849 So I'm like, skin cancer? Everyone survives that. 00:30:31.950 --> 00:30:33.869 Do I really need to hack it off? Yeah, if you 00:30:33.869 --> 00:30:35.390 do. I shouldn't say that, actually. I should 00:30:35.390 --> 00:30:37.890 be sensitive to people out there. No. I would 00:30:37.890 --> 00:30:39.990 chop off anything if I thought it had cancer. 00:30:40.349 --> 00:30:42.329 No, same, same. And that's why I do. This finger? 00:30:42.630 --> 00:30:44.430 Okay, let's get rid of that. Cancer? Chop it 00:30:44.430 --> 00:30:47.549 off. For sure. Women chop off their tits. They 00:30:47.549 --> 00:30:50.920 do. I just as a precaution. Yeah. Get rid of 00:30:50.920 --> 00:30:53.660 them early on. Stop complaining about your Lyle 00:30:53.660 --> 00:30:57.619 Manchel. He did it. Let's trade back on the tracks. 00:30:58.140 --> 00:31:01.180 America's Got Talent's famous Ryan E. Miller 00:31:01.180 --> 00:31:05.359 is coming to you from New Hartford to be technical. 00:31:06.019 --> 00:31:09.339 Friday, March 21st, 8 p .m. on Burstone Road 00:31:09.339 --> 00:31:11.980 at the Burstone Inn in New Hartford. I'm starting 00:31:11.980 --> 00:31:15.660 to turn. Doors open at 7. Show starts at 8. You 00:31:15.660 --> 00:31:17.500 got Ryan E. Miller who we interviewed yesterday. 00:31:17.599 --> 00:31:20.089 Phil Farta, Will Phillips, who we all love. and 00:31:20.089 --> 00:31:21.950 Josh Wilbert. So that's going to be awesome. 00:31:22.230 --> 00:31:23.710 It is. It is. We're going to be there. We're 00:31:23.710 --> 00:31:25.930 coming. It is. You guys are coming to that? Wonderful. 00:31:26.049 --> 00:31:27.589 I didn't know if you were available. That's all. 00:31:27.650 --> 00:31:29.109 I'll make myself. Let's do some. We had this 00:31:29.109 --> 00:31:32.410 whole talk. You guys are on the flyer. You sponsored 00:31:32.410 --> 00:31:35.029 it. We'll do live mentions at the show. Yeah. 00:31:35.190 --> 00:31:36.890 I could have put Mike on the show. I didn't even 00:31:36.890 --> 00:31:38.869 know what was happening. We'll do something for 00:31:38.869 --> 00:31:41.150 you. It'll be great. It all came together once. 00:31:41.369 --> 00:31:44.799 And I'm glad it was. We were already talking 00:31:44.799 --> 00:31:46.720 with Ryan to have him on the show and then you 00:31:46.720 --> 00:31:48.400 announced this. I'm like, this is awesome. Let's 00:31:48.400 --> 00:31:50.960 sponsor this. It happened so fast. Dude, don't 00:31:50.960 --> 00:31:52.920 ever worry about putting me on the bill. I want 00:31:52.920 --> 00:31:55.000 to come support you and I want you there to hold 00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:57.259 me when I cry. That's what I've always done. 00:31:57.660 --> 00:31:58.839 I've been on in a minute. I'm going to go up 00:31:58.839 --> 00:32:00.599 there and eat shit again. Just for old time's 00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:02.539 sake. When was the last time you did a comedy 00:32:02.539 --> 00:32:05.740 show? Immediately bought tickets because I did 00:32:05.740 --> 00:32:08.180 one with you years ago. The door is closing. 00:32:08.859 --> 00:32:11.960 Oh, that was a good one. That was fun. We're 00:32:11.960 --> 00:32:15.180 in that wet room. It smelled like yeast. Beer. 00:32:15.700 --> 00:32:19.339 It smelled like a bar after a rugby team was 00:32:19.339 --> 00:32:21.799 there all day. Yeah, I mean it's supposed to 00:32:21.799 --> 00:32:23.859 smell like that. We got this big bar area. Let's 00:32:23.859 --> 00:32:25.680 take the hottest part of the entire thing. It 00:32:25.680 --> 00:32:28.099 was so humid in the middle of the summer. These 00:32:28.099 --> 00:32:31.920 shows are notoriously the worst possible environments. 00:32:32.420 --> 00:32:35.140 Put them in the back of a bowling alley. Yeah. 00:32:35.420 --> 00:32:37.880 Or like in an alley outside. I have such a pet 00:32:37.880 --> 00:32:41.420 peeve. I was managing a venue years ago, a music 00:32:41.420 --> 00:32:44.180 venue, and Phil, I know you're totally going 00:32:44.180 --> 00:32:46.819 to get this. We had this owner that was like, 00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:48.660 let's do a stand -up comedy during happy hour. 00:32:49.220 --> 00:32:51.880 I'm like, you can't just throw someone up there 00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:54.279 to tell jokes as a secondary. People are there 00:32:54.279 --> 00:32:56.700 to drink for happy hour. If you're going to do 00:32:56.700 --> 00:33:00.000 stand -up, you have seating and you make it an 00:33:00.000 --> 00:33:03.319 event because what people don't realize is subconsciously, 00:33:03.359 --> 00:33:05.900 if you're on your way to a comedy show, You're 00:33:05.900 --> 00:33:08.660 already mentally ready to laugh. You're in laugh 00:33:08.660 --> 00:33:11.660 mode. You're in comedy mode, right? If you are 00:33:11.660 --> 00:33:13.220 on your way to a bar and you're hanging with 00:33:13.220 --> 00:33:15.299 your buddies, even if you love comedy and someone 00:33:15.299 --> 00:33:17.140 starts telling jokes, you're like, what the fuck 00:33:17.140 --> 00:33:18.920 is this? Like, yeah, get this crowd of drunks 00:33:18.920 --> 00:33:22.420 and make them listen to one guy as a surprise. 00:33:22.819 --> 00:33:25.599 Oh no. And people don't understand that you'll 00:33:25.599 --> 00:33:27.740 see Phil and shout out to Mike Peters who does 00:33:27.740 --> 00:33:29.460 great things with homebrewed comedy. Love Mike 00:33:29.460 --> 00:33:32.980 so much. You can do a pop -up show in bowling 00:33:32.980 --> 00:33:35.579 alleys and weird places, but you can't just do 00:33:35.579 --> 00:33:37.180 it. There's got to be a plan. There's got to 00:33:37.180 --> 00:33:39.039 be a scene. He does it well. You know? Comedy 00:33:39.039 --> 00:33:41.400 can't be a surprise. It cannot. That's an important 00:33:41.400 --> 00:33:44.259 rule. People don't get that. So, uh, what's happening 00:33:44.259 --> 00:33:46.940 with the open scene? I know that was really decimated. 00:33:47.180 --> 00:33:49.119 Any responsible comic would know that. I have 00:33:49.119 --> 00:33:51.640 stopped paying attention. I'm so explodingly 00:33:51.640 --> 00:33:53.859 successful. I don't have time. I used to go in 00:33:53.859 --> 00:33:56.099 every Wednesday at the uptown theater. I think 00:33:56.099 --> 00:33:58.339 the schedule changed or they either stopped doing 00:33:58.339 --> 00:34:00.450 it. Something happened. There was a little Uptown 00:34:00.450 --> 00:34:02.470 drama. That was fun. I like a little local drama. 00:34:02.509 --> 00:34:04.650 I did a show at Uptown. I might have done it 00:34:04.650 --> 00:34:05.970 with you. I don't know. Because Ramon Harris 00:34:05.970 --> 00:34:07.130 was on there. And you were there again. It was 00:34:07.130 --> 00:34:08.869 you and Ramon. You're so supportive. It was like 00:34:08.869 --> 00:34:10.989 a throwback show to Fat Cats. That was the whole 00:34:10.989 --> 00:34:13.349 theme of that show. At Uptown? At the Uptown 00:34:13.349 --> 00:34:15.670 Theater, yes. Right. I had Beth Coulson on there. 00:34:15.889 --> 00:34:17.630 I remember that show. That was fun. I love Ramon. 00:34:17.630 --> 00:34:21.250 Ramon is a beast. Dude, he... Those kind of comics 00:34:21.250 --> 00:34:23.050 piss me off, and I don't mean that in a negative 00:34:23.050 --> 00:34:25.690 way. Like, I'm jealous. I'm nervous as shit before 00:34:25.690 --> 00:34:27.230 a show, no matter how much I rehearse, no matter 00:34:27.230 --> 00:34:29.429 how long I've been doing it. This guy sat in 00:34:29.429 --> 00:34:32.070 his car smoking pot listening to music and three 00:34:32.070 --> 00:34:34.369 minutes before he goes on he just walks in and 00:34:34.369 --> 00:34:38.130 lights the place on fire. He's that good. He's 00:34:38.130 --> 00:34:40.449 always DJing lives. He was working. I watched 00:34:40.449 --> 00:34:43.769 him drive Uber for an hour and it was fully entertained. 00:34:43.989 --> 00:34:46.210 I just watched him drive Uber and do karaoke 00:34:46.210 --> 00:34:49.150 in his car and I was like, oh god, dude. Black 00:34:49.150 --> 00:34:51.550 guys are so funny. They are. They're the best. 00:34:52.050 --> 00:34:55.170 Those were great shows. And Ramont is a black 00:34:55.170 --> 00:34:58.610 guy if you didn't figure that out. Ramont's walking 00:34:58.610 --> 00:35:02.110 around. Not a ton. Not a ton. Phil. Did you know 00:35:02.110 --> 00:35:05.309 his brother was on Last Comic Standing? He's 00:35:05.309 --> 00:35:07.510 got a he's got a more famous brother. So he's 00:35:07.510 --> 00:35:10.349 like Charlie Murphy.

What 00:36:44.949 --> 00:36:49.050 we love about it is the beginning, right? So 00:36:49.050 --> 00:36:51.469 always in the beginning of the wedding, there's 00:36:51.469 --> 00:36:54.230 the nervous, like everyone's quiet and pleasant. 00:36:54.710 --> 00:36:56.590 You fast forward to the end of the night when 00:36:56.590 --> 00:36:59.489 Uncle Tom...

You 00:37:08.789 --> 00:37:10.829 can tell based on what hour and what the bar 00:37:10.829 --> 00:37:12.429 is open. And specifically white people, because 00:37:12.429 --> 00:37:15.309 we're not very good at dancing. Just dance. Just 00:37:15.309 --> 00:37:17.289 dance on the side.

People down 00:42:37.630 --> 00:42:39.349 there are losing their minds. Yeah, and where 00:42:39.349 --> 00:42:43.159 do I get these cucumbers? And we do have a guest 00:42:43.159 --> 00:42:46.679 on the show tomorrow from the Giving Bean coffee 00:42:46.679 --> 00:42:49.320 shop that's doing some amazing stuff. So I'm 00:42:49.320 --> 00:42:52.219 excited for that. Yeah. Oh, we know. Dude, actually, 00:42:52.219 --> 00:42:54.059 how much I meant to ask you this. How much coffee 00:42:54.059 --> 00:42:56.659 do you drink a day? All of you probably know. 00:42:57.639 --> 00:42:59.179 I just see it's almost like you remember when 00:42:59.179 --> 00:43:00.619 chain smokers would light the cigarette with 00:43:00.619 --> 00:43:02.840 another. Well, it's like you're constantly and 00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:05.159 then you leave it. Yes. And I set it down and 00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:07.159 don't aware that there's a couple drops left 00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:08.940 at all. And I'm just wandering around with the 00:43:08.940 --> 00:43:11.739 cup. But in general, when I think about it. I 00:43:11.739 --> 00:43:13.360 don't know. When do you stop drinking coffee? 00:43:13.980 --> 00:43:15.820 When I fall asleep. I have a better question 00:43:15.820 --> 00:43:17.599 though, real quick. When you take your first 00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:19.519 coffee in the morning, what's the time frame 00:43:19.519 --> 00:43:22.960 before you have to shit? Cause it's like, it's 00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:24.860 real quick for me. The whole world wants to know. 00:43:24.940 --> 00:43:27.340 I can usually get about half a cup. Cause I can't 00:43:27.340 --> 00:43:30.019 get, I can't get half a cup. Crazy, right? So 00:43:30.019 --> 00:43:32.260 you've built up your coffee tolerance. I have 00:43:32.260 --> 00:43:34.920 a cup at like 10 PM cause I don't think about 00:43:34.920 --> 00:43:37.340 it. And then suddenly I wonder why I'm awake. 00:43:37.539 --> 00:43:39.420 Clenches your thirst. I'm moments from shitting. 00:43:39.619 --> 00:43:41.099 Yeah, I know. If I want anything with any sort 00:43:41.099 --> 00:43:42.840 of flavor, it's just gonna be coffee. I wait 00:43:42.840 --> 00:43:45.559 to switch to Decast. It's kind of like it's plain 00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:48.219 alcoholic beer. Well, I quit drinking. So any 00:43:48.219 --> 00:43:51.119 beer, I'm glad that it's not just old duals anymore, 00:43:51.139 --> 00:43:53.199 because I do still want to have the taste of 00:43:53.199 --> 00:43:56.219 a cold beer. You know, here's the thing. I subscribe 00:43:56.219 --> 00:43:59.539 to Arnold Schwarzenegger's mailing list all about 00:43:59.539 --> 00:44:03.599 health and... It's been a huge 180 in the coffee 00:44:03.599 --> 00:44:07.880 study world. Coffee is good, no. There's a lot 00:44:07.880 --> 00:44:10.619 more benefits than the negative size. The study 00:44:10.619 --> 00:44:14.019 was done by Juan Valdez. Sorry. And with that, 00:44:14.239 --> 00:44:16.099 this has been New York. Thank you guys. This 00:44:16.099 --> 00:44:18.380 is awesome. Kelly, we love you. Stage time trivia. 00:44:19.039 --> 00:44:24.199 Beauty, buy beer. And March 21st, Burstone Road 00:44:24.199 --> 00:44:28.099 in Utica, New York. Great comedy show. ComedyCNY 00:44:28.099 --> 00:44:28.519 .com.
