Actually literally and he they also have a recording studio,
so they can you know, if you guys want to

But let's get into it. I've been friends with these
two beautiful human beings for a long time. Gino and
Keanu believe in my comedy. They're fantastic comedians and hilarious.
You guys can check them out on the road. You
can check them out at Rodney's February twentieth. Yes, I'm
(01:24):
gonna be on the show. You've been doing comedy for
a really long time.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Yeah, you'd think more people would know who the fuck
I am?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Can I say people know?
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yes, you can't say, good Lord.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Do you know who the fuck he is?
Speaker 3 (01:36):
That's right, that's what you say when you show up
at gig. But yes, you would think more people would
know I am.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
But I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I've always just been doing comedy, getting on stage, telling
the jokes, seeing where it leads me.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Today, it led me to your show.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Well, let's talk.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
About that, because a lot of people don't understand. You know, Santa,
comedy is constantly changing, and you've been doing it for
a long time. Tell us what you mean by that, Like,
what do you think has been different since?
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Well?
Speaker 4 (01:59):
I think since I got in and I started.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
I when I first got up here to New York,
I I'd already been doing comedy for quite some time
in I always say Philly, right outside of Philly, whatever.
And I'm starting out in bars, so I have to
go into the crowd, do a lot of crowd. I
don't have to, but I do. That's how I start.
So I'm always doing crowd work, but I'm also doing
stand up. But that's what I like, so I can't
(02:21):
ignore the crowd. And then comics that started up here,
and God bless them, they're great. They know how to
do their set, and don't get me wrong, I probably
could have crafted a set like that, but I always
just liked bouncing off the crowd, feeding off the energy
doing that. So that's what I've been doing since I
got up here. And it's evolved a lot since then.
You know, it's moved from it's moved from doing stand
(02:42):
up excuse me from stand up to you know, all
the social media apps. And then you need a big
following on TikTok more than you need to be funny,
and you need to have dei stuff which brings planes
down out of.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
You, really feel, I'm just trying to walk through. The
white guys are backs.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, and by the way, there now, just sit back
and wait for the work to come to me because
you know, the comedy industry is dying to have straight
white men over fifty doing shows.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
But we also talk about like we talked about this
where stand up comedy is like the foundation, but a
lot of stand up comics they pray and they want
to be like a full time host, Like how you
were on Compound Media. Sure, you know, had a successful
show for eight years on Compound Media in hot Water
and it's still continuing in our apartment.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Apartment, And what do you in, Keanu?
Speaker 1 (03:31):
You can chime in, like what is this whole obsession
you think of like getting past at the clubs as
opposed to kind of like starting your own brand when
comics really strive to have like an on camera full
time work, right, we're not doing stand up to do
stand up.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
When I started comedy, I think it was it was
on its way out of like hanging out at the
clubs sort of. It was the whole social media craze
and like yeah, like I mean, look, how successful there's
some comics all of a sudden we're like, oh my god,
they're you know, headlining theaters. Matt Wright, for example, off
of one TikTok video. So I would when did I
(04:09):
start comedy? Maybe I graduated college in twenty fifteen, wow,
and then I started because a professor of mine.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Told me.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
He was like, you're a great writer. I know you're
moving to New York. This is going to sound crazy,
but I used to do stand up in New York.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You should try it.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
I'm like, you're crazy daily news then you're just nuts.
And then I did and I fell in love with it.
But that was almost right there at the shift of like, okay,
hanging out the clubs and like just getting waiting to
get like thrown up there on the stage was almost
sort of on its way out. Now it's sort of
(04:48):
to me, really out, And what really does it do
to be I don't know, maybe Chanelle you understand this,
Like what does it do to be past it?
Speaker 2 (04:57):
All of the clubs?
Speaker 5 (04:57):
It's great, but is that what we're aiming for? When
you could just surpass all of that and be like
somebody that is selling out clubs and venues, Like if
you're on a reality television show, you know, right.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Right, like what's the next goal? Like you can do
the clubs every day and that might be a form
of success. But then when you're doing the clubs every day.
You want more, you want mass media success.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
In comedy, in any in any industry. I believe, no
matter where you are, you're here, and no matter where
you are, there's thousands upon thousands of people saying how
do I get there? Yeah, And there's just as you're saying,
how do I get to where these thousands and thousands are?
So you're always looking for the next thing, like you said, right,
so you never know what the next thing, Well you
(05:47):
should know what the next thing is, right.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Right, But the thing is also like hanging back to
what Piano Sai about hanging out in clubs. I got
to be honest from my experience, when I hung out
at clubs, I didn't get thrown on stage.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
And I would even ask when did you clubs? I
would say right after.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
COVID, before COD and then after Cold I hung out
of club.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
So I don't hang out.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I just like let myself get booked by sending my tape,
by sending my accolades, my credits, and if that can.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Get me in.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Because I see a lot of comics that don't hang out,
and they get booked based on their merit.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
So what's what are we do?
Speaker 5 (06:17):
Is their merit or their social media following.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
But there's that's all. Yeah, but there's people that literally
have a two thousand followers.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
But there's people that have a thousand followers and they're
still getting on stage by not hanging out and just
sending a quick tape that might or might not be
that funny.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
I believe you.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
I don't even know anymore because when I got up
here early two thousands, I would I did the hang
and I love the hang and it was how to
in two thousand and three and four.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Yeah, that was the procedure. You get up here.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
I always say this story, like when I got out here,
I'm like, all right, I came from Delaware. I'm like,
all right, you're right outside of Philly, but it's Delaware. Uh.
And Delaware was great to start coming. It was in Wilmington, Delaware.
And when you're first starting going anywhere you can, you know,
you don't get and you are twenty minutes from Philly,
you're an hour from Baltimore, ninety minutes from DC, and
(07:08):
you're two hours from the city because you're driving at night.
So I would go all over and then after a
while it's like you're living in New York. Excuse me,
you're living in Delaware. You're like, if I don't move
up to New York, I'm fully shit. It's not like
I live in Nevada or a Nevada excuse me, or
the Midwest. It's like, I just need to put everything
I own in my car, drive two hours north, sleep
on a couchli And I did that. So then you're
(07:30):
up here and you're hanging out at the clubs and
you're meeting people, and you're networking, and you're doing their
bar gigs, and someone sees you and then you live that.
That was the old model. It's like, all right, now,
I've got fifteen minutes and I'm known, and I'll get
I'll get an agent, I'll get a festival, I'll get
a thing, I'll get a late night and all that stuff.
But I could never get the tape out because, as
I said earlier, I like fucking dealing with the crowd
(07:52):
and I couldn't do a clean tape. And that's on me,
not complaining. But I found my own way, you know.
I would do shows and then I like on radio,
and I did you know, I did the Stern channels
and I met already lang and I did his podcast
and I wound up working for Anthony Coomie and all that,
and that's great, that's great, But that was my model
and you got it from nowhere in that statement. Did
(08:13):
you hear the in that diatribe?
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Excuse me?
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Did you hear social media or TikTok or Instagram? You know?
And that's why I'm setting my weight.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
So it's like I don't have that stuff. I have
it now, but I'm not good at it and I'm
learning it. But I'm on my path.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
God, you have such a young wife, you see exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
But you're saying the same thing, like you don't do
the hang right, you do the social media.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
I love to hang out just to hang out, and
that has gone.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
She doesn't expect to get on stage because of it.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Of great, Yeah, and that's the thing the same with me.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
I don't because I come from reality to me and
acting and hosting that we don't hang after shows.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Like actors are very like, I.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Do my thing. I come on time, I leave. They
don't want to just hang even if they like you and.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
The old days, if you came on time, you get
a lot of work. Hottie it's for it.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
I was waiting for you.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
I wanted to take me for an example, like if
I didn't hang I love hanging out the two of you,
genuine we're genuine friends. But if I didn't, would you
guys hold that against me or be like, oh, she's
good at what she does, so like all no, because.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
You're busy and a lot of times you don't show up.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
It's like, no, us, it took us for ever to
get this thing because one of us always had to
cancel and we were like, how the fuck. It's like, good,
you're busy.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
How many times do I text back you? Busy is good?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Busy is good? No one's you for being busy?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
I am.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
I get wet when people cancel plans.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Yeah I agree.
Speaker 5 (09:37):
I'm like, uh, it doesn't bother me. Not that I
don't want to hang out with the person, but it's like, okay,
you know what, it never offends me canceling plan?
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I agree, So you don't think it's it offends me
when people get offended by kids. Oh I came down,
but I changed.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
You're not David Letterman, You're not you know, sorry, baby?
Speaker 5 (09:58):
What it's like but I, well, I wish I would
have known earlier.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Shut up.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Okay. You know what else drives me nuts when people
get mad, And don't get me wrong, when when absolute
fucking nobody's get mad at you for not remembering their name?
Who the fuck are you? I can't remember important names.
I tell the story all the time, same thing from
a show we did earlier.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
My buddy Bamba.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
I would go to his place every his kids were
six months apart, so every six months birthday. And I
went one time and I met this guy.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
His name is I'll never forget. His name is Dan.
And I met him one time.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
And six months later, I'm down there in Wilmington, Delaware,
middle of fucking nowhere, talking to some fucking suburban fucking
zero with his two kids, and I go, hey, he goes,
you know, how are you good?
Speaker 4 (10:39):
I'm like, how are you? Buddy? He goes, he goes
like this, you don't remember my name?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Do you?
Speaker 3 (10:43):
And I go like this, I don't go. I'm like no,
I'm sorry, and I'm like, what is it? He goes
and he walks away, and.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
That is emotional, and it is Terrorism's a fucking nobody. No,
not you, not you not you to say you don't
remember who I am. Yeah, you that is so non.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Not just because I don't remember your name.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
There's something called decorum if you can tell why would
you call me out on.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I went up to my buddy and I said, what's
his name? I go that guy Danny goes yeah, He's
like yeah, he's a good guy in the ways.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
I'm like, say, you're telling me all you need to know.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I'm like, trust me, I'm coming back every six months,
and I will call him every name that begins with
D except Danny everyone, because like, you could get my
name wrong when I go on stage to this day, Hey,
what's your uh.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Hey gino, what's your intro? I want to get your
credits right?
Speaker 3 (11:32):
And now just go And I say you can say
in hot water no I and I got through it.
And I'm like, and if you get my name or
credits wrong, no one's gonna correct you. Don't worry about it,
you know what I mean? But you get these people
like that are noticed, like, make sure you get my
name right, make me remember your fucking name.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Well, that's the thing like about the two of you.
I wonder where that comes from. Where you guys don't
really lead by ego.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
You do your own thing. You beat your own drum,
Like where did that?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Like?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Did you? Guys?
Speaker 3 (11:58):
You can I'm going to beat you to it, and
then we're going to talk about.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
How you like force Keiki to like date you and
you're like thirty years old. Other than that, now we're
going to talk about like shitting where you eat. It
worked for these two, but it would never work for
someone like me. So don't take a page out of
my book. All I'm saying is there's things that work
for the two of you.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
What do you think it is like Mexicans?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Mexicans work for the two of us?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Okay, I mean the ones that can cross the border. Okay, Now.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Kiki is gonna be the one who's gonna be refereeing
this whole podcast and be like, this is what you
two can say.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
You can't say, are.
Speaker 5 (12:32):
We allowed to curse on here?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Cause he's been.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah, just as much as we limited as much as
possible because I don't know YouTube if I put it
on YouTube, is that.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
No cursing is fine just toward words?
Speaker 3 (12:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (12:43):
Yeah, well yes, well.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
What do you what do you think it is? Kiki?
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Like, did you plan this where you're like, we're going
to be to our own drum? Or were you like,
because you know, we know that that comedy is a
lot like high school. And I'm gonna let you say
that famous line told me where.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
David said, it's like, it's like entertainment is like high
school with money money.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
How do we not be to that drum?
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Like?
Speaker 1 (13:03):
How do you not follow that? Let that noise affect
your success?
Speaker 5 (13:07):
Well, I beating to my own drum is something I've
always liked in high school. I didn't even think that
anybody really liked me.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I have always just been.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
On my own path.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
I pride myself and I think Eugene is the same
exact way I pride myself in being genuine. I don't
know how any how any authentic.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I don't know how.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
I don't know another way to be so and starry.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
By the way, for all of those who don't know Kei,
Ky's a skilled actress, so it's even harder to be
authentic when.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
You're still skilled.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
He's great, and it's hard to be like authentic and
act like it's right.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Can I go the other way? It's hard? That makes sense,
But it's hard for people like us, and.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
This includes you. Hope you take this complment.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I'm sure you will to be inauthentic because it's hard
to live that many lies. It's hard to be that
many people where.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
This is where I have.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
This is why I'm not a famous actress. She's so
because I have a This is why stand up is
better for me, because it's me. It's more genuine to me.
It is hard for me to act a certain way.
I'm not saying I'm a terrible actress.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I can.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
I can get through it. But they always said, like Jana,
you're meant for soap operas. I'm like, well you may
as well just put a bullet in mind.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Right, they made great money. But I'm like, you're telling
me I'm a terrible actress.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
Is that what you're telling me?
Speaker 4 (14:34):
All right?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
John Balayah? And that's a callback to our shows. Its
streme if I may pay her a compliment. And this
is why she's authentic, and this is why she's a comedian,
and this is why I became Look, i became a comedian.
And I've said this a lot comedy, you don't We
talked about this earlier with the guy from Jersey Shore
when he goes, I'm doing comedy now. No genuine comedian
(14:58):
ever said that. You don't say now to try comedy.
Comedy sucks you in comedy chooses you.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
It does, and say, what made you guys do commic?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Kean told the story about you told that sirt like
the guy's like, try comedy and did you tell it?
Speaker 5 (15:12):
And and the class and I went because he was
a solo performance class and he like took me under
his wing.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
And he who was your comedy teacher?
Speaker 2 (15:24):
See everyone?
Speaker 5 (15:24):
He was in our wedding. His name was Kevin Dombrowski,
but that was.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
What he just got past the seller.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Kevin Dombrowski is one of my favorite comics and he's
one of one of my closest friends in the orley.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Just got past there. It's long over due.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
He's great.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
Sorry to interrupt.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
He got past their people.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Yeah, and he told me, I mean, he was like,
I just got pasted the seller.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
He's like remember that. He's something like don't roll your
eyes at no, go on.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Good for him because he is great, incredible. Actually, I
so yeah, I went. I had a teacher that said
I it was a solo performance class. So solo performance
is like stand up but like the play, and it's
not joke joke joke, joke joke, it's like Eric Bogosian
sort of things. And he loved my writing and just said,
(16:07):
I think you should try this.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I know you're moving to New York and.
Speaker 5 (16:10):
I'm like, yeah, you're crazy. But the moment I did,
I called my dad and I went, I took a
class at the Comedy sell and then you do that,
you know, performance or whatever. Because I just didn't know
how to get into it. I didn't know who to
talk to her, like how to like work my way in.
I didn't know like really about open mics. And then
(16:31):
I called my dad after that, like little class performance,
I was like, that's the best thing I've ever done.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
What does it make you feel?
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Like?
Speaker 2 (16:42):
What does it make you feel when you get on stage?
Speaker 5 (16:43):
That's that high, right, it's like, oh my god. And
it's different from acting because acting is almost easier. And
even though acting is so hard because you know, it's
remembering lines, it's character, it's trying to be somebody else,
it's almost even and it's like, oh, I can be myself,
but is myself funny enough? So there's the give and
(17:06):
take of that. I was addicted to it from the
moment I did it, and I not that I wouldn't
still act, but this is the path I've gone down now,
So what.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Inspired like each of you behind?
Speaker 1 (17:22):
You know, you guys are really funny and like, yeah,
you say you do crowd work, but you guys have
like really good jokes too that I've been well written
and well thought out. And by the way, the secret
to comedy that people don't realize is you have to
say it over and over again as if like you
just said.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It in that moment.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Yeah, what inspires you and her? You guys have different
sets to like keep to your content and not stray
away because of what others say.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Well, I evolved if I'm going first, I evolved to
this because you know.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
You are going first in a sense, not with.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
That attitude I was saying.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
But it's again, he's a one minute man, ladies and gentlemen,
boom done.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Start again back to what. But comedy is like I've
said this, like, comedy chooses you.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
You do it once and you're like, I don't even
want to get and.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Bore you with that, But your act evolves and when
you comedy is like the first time. It's like riding
a unicycle the first time. I would imagine never been
on one, but I would imagine when you're learning to
ride a unicycle, you just want to fucking get on it.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Okay, Once you can get on.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Out of everything, you can get one thing the universe
cycle is the stage.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
And first I just got to get on it. Either one.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I just got to get up on the thing, right.
You do that, all right? Once you do that all right,
now I have to stay on it.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Once you learn how to stay on it, you get
more comfortable on it, and you can do more things,
and you can you can prowl the stage, you can
fucking juggle whatever you want. But the thing is it's
going to evolve. And once you're comfortable up there, then
you can focus on what you're doing on the goddamn
thing right, And you'll say anything when you're learning to
stay up there, anything to keep your balance, any joke, joke,
(19:00):
any whatever. But once you do all right, then you
start talking. And I've always like, and I realized this
in hindsight, I've always wanted to say the smartest thing
in the dumbest way, or maybe I'm saying the dumbest
thing in the smartest way. And I have aolve from
doing jokes about wah wah when I lived down near
Philly to you know, like I went to h When
(19:20):
I was in the late nineties, I backpacked through Europe,
I went through I went to I didn't even know
An Frank's house was in Germany. Excuse me, I thought
it was in Germany. I'm a dummy. It's in Amsterdam.
You go there and suddenly you realize that it's not
adjectives like like Germans killing Jews while other countries look on.
It's people letting kill people kill people, and so you're
about so you're like, I've got to make a light
(19:42):
of this, and some people don't like that.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
Some people are like, oh, I don't want to laugh
at what. I don't want to laugh at that.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Fuck you. Oh I want to laugh at what's cute.
Suck my dick staying there angel, fuck you. It's easy
to laugh at what's funny. And then you're act involved,
and then COVID hits and you suddenly realize, because you've
been around long, you're not smarter than people. You're like,
I've lived longer, and I've seen more things than I've
I've been sick and I and you start writing jokes
about that, and you start punching holes in that, and
(20:07):
you start getting people to laugh at the stuff that
fucking people want to scare you because laughter fucking heals you.
It relieves stress, it releases endorphins, it boosts your immunity.
And it's almost like in the past four years they
didn't want any of that. They wanted us to run
and hide indoors and go on YouTube and drinking fucking
zoom meetings and all that shit, And that's how your
(20:27):
act evolves. My act evolved to that. So you're just
saying dumb things for laughs, and then you're like, maybe
I can say smart things for laughs, and maybe people
will push back on that, and maybe that's not your people.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Right because where it's too scared.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Even me, I we had this talk about like not
being too edgy or like not offending people because I've
done roves, I've done it all, and it's like, but
then I thought about what you said to me, Like,
if you really genuinely make somebody laugh on a concept
that's relatable, you can't go wrong.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Even if the clubs say you're not good enough if.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
You can this joke never works.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
And it's a serious bit, but the joke never works.
If you like, when you are laughing, it heals you.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
It does you feel it?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Like and I said this earlier on our podcast and
it's the first time I said it, but I mean,
it's like, it's like the ship that heals you is
the laughter from the inside, not the stuff we see
on TV now where I'm like, well, I'm watching Jimmy Kimmel,
I'm in studio and it says applause, so whatever they say,
just no, Like when when I tell a joke and
people laugh like this because they're laughing from the inside,
but they don't want the fuck that that's the ship
(21:27):
that genuinely heals you. Every organ in your body is there,
is there from the moment you're born, okay, and whatever
created it heals it.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
It does no one.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
We we existed half a billion years somehow without doctor Faucher,
half a billion years. And now they're like, well, if
you're pregnant, make sure you get these nine vaccines.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
And is it right, please, her tongue is pregnant.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
My point is, speaking of pregnant. There you go, But
you get what I'm saying. I'm making the answer too long.
But but like, if you can use comedy to fucking
make people laugh and make him think, that's that's what
you evolved to, that's where you wind up.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
And I think I'm debating with everyone about that's the goal. Yeah,
it's about saying something that no one is, everyone's scared
to say, but making it fun.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Would you rather bend?
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Would you rather be us?
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Would you rather be Jimmy Kimmel who gets all this
money and literally at one point says because he's dancing,
don't you want to be both?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
No?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Do you want to be the guy that says ready
for this? You want to be the guy that says, hey,
if if you're not vaccinated, uh, then and you have
a heart attack, then die in the emergency room and
eat your goo. Okay, And by the way, let me
tell you something. Jimmy Kimmel has a seven year old
son who needs surgery after surgery?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Do you and I pray for that kid?
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I do?
Speaker 4 (22:41):
He did nothing wrong, But do you think when he
goes home.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
And sleeps on his piles and piles of money that
he got for lying for saying shit and acting holier
than that when he did Black, when he did Black.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
He's not last year. You know that.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
I know he was talking about retiring, but if you're
saying he's being replaced, but the bottom line is, oh,
because it's I always say this, it's the movie V
for Vandetta. And I'm sorry, baby, I'm talking too much.
She says a lot more intelligent, a lot more quickly.
But but it's like it's the V for Vandetta. You're
not of use to us anymore, Colbert, all of them.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
But it's like you're sitting here saying these lines.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
You used to have women on trampolines. You used to
do Carol Malone, who's a friend of yours, which is
why why a man show? Right?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Yeah, but this is a guy that no, I.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
Know, I'm just saying, explain, you're just saying you used
to have women on trampolines.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Oh, just I think anyone.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
It was to see their breasts bouncing up and down.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Yes, last did. I don't remember that exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
But because you're young, the air Force, because he's a
he's a self made man. Him and Adam Carolla and
Adam Carolla speaks logically. Now, Adam Carolla has been going
after Gavitt. This is getting too politically.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
He's I wonder.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
It's so fascinating to me how he got on air
the way he got, Adam Corolla, you mean no, Jimmy
kim Jimmy Kilway.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
He su.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Board meeting and you're thinking, these execs are gonna be
like I can sell you.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
No, he has to be there has to be well.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
It was no, it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
There wasn't well culture then it was funny and harmless
to watch hot chicks on trampoline.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
You weren't like, oh, what a dummy. She's like, look
at that hot chick. I want to see your bouncing.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
It wasn't like like an object.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Even though we thought that you didn't talk about it
out loud.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
You didn't care. He wasn't a big.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
No think.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
I just love Sarah Silverman. She went on Jimmy Kimmel's show.
I love her so much. She went on Jimmy Kimmel
show like maybe a few years ago, and she was
talking about how he's married now, and she said, and
you'll hate this gino, so just please don't fucking start screaming,
but she said, yeah, his wife's name I think is Molly.
(24:53):
She's like Molly got.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Thin, cool, woke Jimmy.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
I got like bad ass woman on Trampoline's Jimmy. I
thought that was cute.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
She's hilarious.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
I love her.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
But that's like another thing is like she's so famous.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Like just being a relevant comedian, especially as a woman
in general, it's like it's very hard, even if you
have the industry behind you. She had Jimmy Kimmel behind her,
she had all these people, and it's like, yeah, she's famous,
but like, is she as relevant?
Speaker 4 (25:24):
I think she's relevant, But I'm like, are we talking
about her.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
As much as you too were talking about others? I
think she doesn't.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
She's leaning. She does a great podcast too. It's not
for everyone because it's it's political or what have you.
But she is and she was also I think she
was nominated. She's been in films.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
She's by the way, she's.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
Also the real not the reason. But she's probably the
first time I saw stand up Jesus is Magic is
one of the funniest things to this day I've ever
seen in my life.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Would you say she was one of like who would
you say is your influence in comedy?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
I would say at first, on her, I think you
get up on stage and you sort of like do
an impression of your favorite stand up but.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
In your own words, I wouldn't say it was an impression.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
But she's definitely I've been on a show with her
or two actually, and uh, she's she's absolutely, absolutely hysterical.
I don't care how she feels politically. I'm not political
like you, Gene is.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
But funny, who's the funnier female comedian? Her or Adrian Applelucci?
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Unfortunately I don't really know who Adrian apple.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Thank you for proving my they're different, And yeah, we
know Adrian because we're.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
In the Adrian apple Ucci is the funniest female comedian
arguably not named Jessica Kirson. Jessica, and I will tell
you something about Adrian Appolui. Do you think she doesn't
get that credit that Adrian because Adrian Appalucci and.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Jessica he always used the full name.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Adrian Applelucci and Jane Appalucci. Jessica Kirson are both pairshed
older women. Okay, and don't get me wrong, Sarah Silverman
was young and hah and did and Sarah Silverman is
very funny. God forgive me if you think I'm not
saying that. God forgive me if you think I'm not
saying that. But Adrian Appolucci, she doesn't joke now about
(27:15):
trans Hilaria.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
She goes, why is everyone worried about trans people? Relax?
Speaker 3 (27:19):
It's three percent of America and they're all in third grade.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
And I'm not even telling it right.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Brilliant her success meaning people do know her.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
You don't think, I think, but but this is a
litmus test to go back to Osha. A lot of
people like, if you just said, who's Adrian Evoluci, please
look her up. She's fucking hysterical but dark.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
She had a team with money like Jimmy Kimmel did,
she would be Adrian Appleluchi.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Where everybody were the worldwide would know her. Or the talent.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Why you're sitting in this small apartment, that's my point,
You're right.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Comics come to me all the time, an Athey, it's
get money for a really good PR marketing team, and
you will make it. Your talent who show even if
you're competing with the best of the best, it will
be made. But some of these comics will complain that
they're doing the stage every night and they're not mainstream.
Why because no one's gonna take you up and just
put you out there.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
That's not what Hollywood is about it.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
It's not like Colleen, you know what kid. I just
saw this kid over in uh you know, at the
at the Three Star Lounge. I saw him do his
act at one o'clock in the morning, and I'm gonna
make him a star.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Like I don't think that's happening. No, of course not.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
You know what, I fucking anybody that says I'm on
the grind kill me, all right, I'm grinding. I'm grinding,
you know, like I'm just grinding.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Shut up.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
But why do you guys think like some of these
really funny comedians will play the clubs every night and
they don't get to Hollywood, Like what is that?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Where is the is it?
Speaker 5 (28:52):
What I'm saying, because they don't have to Well, look
at Dava tel If you're so funny funny comedians maybe
of all time?
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Maybe no money? Yes, why are you funny comedians? Why
the funniest comedian alive?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
He just had a Netflix special? But why do you
think it wasn't even that great. But why is he
not in movies? Why are agents not taking him in selling?
Speaker 5 (29:17):
I almost think he's so funny, wants to be I
think he just loves doing Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
He answered it like there's certain people who want certain
things like me. I don't know if I feel comfortable. Yes,
I would love just doing the stage, but I would
want probably more, Yeah for my part exactly, I want
more people to see it.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Yeah, I want more. I'm not lying.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
He's smoking a cigar on the city is hilarious. People
don't even do rated ar things.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
This is like PG. Thirteen anyway, all right, but yeah,
that's a good point.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Like some people just like the stage and selling theaters
and they're cool with that.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
They don't need to be famous. And then I think
that those.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Opportunities come along, right, like like Pete Davidson does it
with his crew. Oh yeah, like Ricky Julio Gallaradi, like
they've been doing comedy for a very long time, but
they also get opportunities now that their friend has made it,
where now people are.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Seeing them like, hey, you want to do a movie
or you want to do this.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
It's I don't think they were you know what kills me.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Whenever someone says, god, I miss Already Lang, and I
always say, you miss already Lang, you miss it. I
did his podcast, I was his second chair. I toured
with him. He's like, hey, I'm doing Nochie won't open
for me in La, Yeah, all those things.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
It's like, yeah, I miss Already Lang.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
He's still alive, right, but he's out of comedy. How
is that possible? Because he can't trust himself like a legend.
He's a legend, but he doesn't trust himself around fucking
whenever he goes. When I used to open for when
anyone use him before him? I know from person.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
How are you pushing Artie Lange out of comedy that.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
He pushed himself out because he couldn't resist heroin and stuff?
Sorry baby thinking.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Okay, so it's the addiction you're saying that could ruin you, which,
by the way, I always.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
The fucking people with addiction. I'll tell you something, say
something about these fucking losers.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Which is an alcoholis what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Oh, I get in the Whiskeys three. It seems breakfast.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
And that's my point, is like comedy for addicts in general.
If people are extremeists, especially like someone.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Like addicted personality personalities.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Comedy is great for you because it puts you in
this like focus mode, and that is the addiction is
like getting the high off stage, getting the laughs, even
if you make people left or you don't, it's that high,
that challenge of like trying to true what can I
do next time?
Speaker 2 (31:25):
For me at least through it could be.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
Like or if you get addicted to the laft or
if you're like already you're hilarious and then you know
your fans who love you so much are handing you
bags of you know, right and then yeah, right right?
I mean, am I wrong?
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Gene? No examples like that, No.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Look at me, like like I would take all my
fans across the street after compound to fucking Sullivan's, you know,
and they're all fucking like you just get addicted to.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
That, right, You can get addicted either way. It's like
being the funniest and then like trying to escape, or
like being not the funniest and just diving into that
craft and not doing.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Any other addiction.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Chanel, I have a question for you. Do you have
a have you ever like like a great story where
someone was so offended by a joke or something bombed,
like I.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Love that, Adaly. Yeah, I mean every set I do.
It's like talking about the fact that I'm Jewish is offensive.
Talking about the fact.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
That I'm Israeli in Colombian's events, I feel like that
should not be off I know, but I'm a little
of an edgier comic, Like I definitely say what's on
my mind. I think I say things that people do
agree with and understand, but They're like, oh, I can't
believe this came out of this white girl's mouth, even
though I'm not that white.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
You know, so certain things I've never thought of myself
as white as Italian, right, Like I don't think Jews,
Greeks and Italians are white, no disrespect, I don't. And
that that's what back to you. I'm interrupting, But doesn't
that shape a lot of what you say?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
You're like what I have, I.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
Like, there's no racism. Like I'll say one more thing.
I never I do a show here in my apartment,
in our apartment, watch us in our home and July
apologize and you know, only blacks or juice it like
you're here, Larry Beya, brilliant black like I let all
these people in.
Speaker 4 (33:14):
But yeah, but the stuff you say on stage.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Stop it but are jokes. These are things that people,
and I get it. There's a whole culture, like, can
we stop this for a second so I can use
the bathroom quick and come back to it, or no,
it doesn't work like that.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Let me.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
I don't think you can pause it, but we can
edit it out just this part, this part, Yeah, that's fine,
I can cut it down in no worry.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
It's the only door that's not.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
Like, poor thing, it's the whole time. Actually, no, we'll
check the timestamp.
Speaker 5 (33:44):
Baby, yeah, we're at thirty two.
Speaker 2 (33:49):
We'll leave it.
Speaker 5 (33:49):
We'll leave it rolling. Maybe she'll like this. Hurry Gino
say do your act.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
I will not.
Speaker 3 (33:57):
They should have just she should have just left it
on you with a long answer and got to piss
is what she should have done.
Speaker 4 (34:06):
She's doing that.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
I'm gonna upload today's Today's Chanelle in the She called
Chanell in the Now, but I'm like my episode today

Okay, okaya, no worry.
Speaker 5 (35:20):

Speaker 3 (35:27):
That was how okay?
Speaker 2 (35:29):

Speaker 5 (35:33):
Yeah, no, I mean, so I'll just edit this part out.
Wait till Gino's done typing purpose and then I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (35:39):
I was just uploading the audio to Tuesday with Chanel Omar.
Speaker 5 (35:44):
All right, so one two and whenever, one two and three.
Speaker 2 (35:51):
So as we were saying we're.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
Back, what were we talking about?
Speaker 1 (35:54):
I've been driving they we're talking about the walk so
the wol culture when Keanu, she just asked me a
really good question of did you ever have a story?
And it's every day and that's what I struggle with,
And I'm going to ask you guys what your story is.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
But I see you.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Guys in action and like the crowd responds to you,
and I'm not comparing. I'm just saying there are times
I say things that I'm like, was that really out
of pocket?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Like it wasn't that out of pocket?
Speaker 1 (36:17):
And they're not laughing, They're like, oh, so, I guess
I don't know if there's an answer to that, like,
how do you change that? If people don't like you?
How do you change what your art form? Because I'm
not going to change who I am?
Speaker 4 (36:29):
You don't, you don't be that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Like, I'm forty years old, I'm not either you like
me the way this I am or you don't.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
But wouldn't you argue?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
And then I like, I'm talking about being Israelian Jewish.
That's offensive. But no, I don't know how to tell
people that it's not effensive.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
You can the second you back down from it, Okay,
you become Jimmy Kimmel. God forgive me a problem. We
should all have the.
Speaker 5 (36:50):
Guy that does the trampoline thing.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
No, the other guy then fucking you know, because I
don't mind being the girl bouncing with my budio.
Speaker 5 (36:57):
Either had your girls on trampoline.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
But the second get you back down, the second people
know that you can be bought that you will cow
tell right, then that's not necessarily a bad thing. That's
the path you too.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
You're selling a false narrative by saying someone's genuine.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
You're selling though.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Someone is genuine and you're not. You're buying into a
false reality.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
I always say this if you don't go within, you
go without. Well, I didn't invent it, but it's a
great phrase that I and I say, like it applies
to a lot of things. But as a comic, as
an artist of any kind, either go with in or
you go without. Simply put, you either create from within
and say this is what I want to say, this
is how I'll say it, this is how we'll come
out of my mouth, and then I create from within
and he goes out there and whoever hears it then
(37:38):
and maybe this isn't the best way, or maybe it is,
but it works for a lot of people. Look at
Shane Gillis. Shane Gellis got fucking canceled and then he
you know, wow, and he came back, came back strong,
you know, and there's a lot of others.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Would that happen for a woman or you don't believe
in that?
Speaker 3 (37:51):
I'm sure, I'm sure what happened for a woman? I
can't think of one, but I will if I if
there is one. That I'm dumb, but I'm saying, if
you create from within, that's but you can also go
without and say, all right, what is the industry like?
Speaker 4 (38:03):
And people do this like and that that's Jimmy Kimmel.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Now, all right, so this is what they want me
to say, this is who they hate.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
So I will fucking take this. I'll digest that.
Speaker 3 (38:12):
I'll give it to my fucking staff. They will write
stuff and I will regurgitate.
Speaker 4 (38:16):
Ridiculous jim I will.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
Has he ever been a stand up though?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Yeah, he was before he had the show.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Jimmy Kimmel was with them. I'll even go before Jimmy
Kimmel used to be like on remote control.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Yeah, yeah, he was like the side.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
He was doing clubs, all like hustling.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Yeah, he was the one that did Adam Carolla did nothing.
I don't mean that in a bad way. Adam Carroll
is brilliant. But Adam Carols the one that said, like,
Jimmy kim Is, like we're doing this. He dragged himberhe
It was like I used to always say I'm Adam Carolla,
although I'm not, and Kimmel was Aaron berg Berg was
like we're doing that. I'm like, you got it, just
tell me where whatever. But you suddenly now you're Jimmy
Kimmel and you're saying this stuff and you're making a
(38:54):
shit ton of money, but you're just you're a puppet.
You're saying what you're told, and that's fine, but it's
like you wind up saying things.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
That that should as a human.
Speaker 3 (39:04):
When he said, when you had those fires in California
and you have these dumbity it's everyone on either side
with announce of common sense agreed.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
And you saw this.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
This woman who got was a DEI higher and she's like, well,
if I can't lift up your husband to say that
he's in the wrong place, and that's stupid and terrible.
Not even attack her, because it's not her fault that
she's retarded, she's been encouraged to be midiot. It's not
her fault. It's not her fault. But when Jimmy Kimmel's like, yeah,
it's not her fault, but I've got to try and
make sense of it and make and she's like, and
(39:34):
the way dahmerd Trump said it, like you don't want
fireman saving you because they're not white enough, which is
a lie, and then says, and I want to thank
the fireman. And I'll say this again, they'll never do that.
My uncle Frank was a fireman, My good Frankie, like
a fire no fireman has ever said, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
Here's your baby.
Speaker 3 (39:52):
Uh ah ah, say thank you. No fireman wants to
be thanked. And I said this to my brother and
he's so good. He does my show every we do
bonus loads. And my brother really knows this shit. But
he said, when we were watching, remember when that stupid
Crowley the DEI fucking fire chief. And she's like whenever,
she keeps saying and I want to point out that
these firemen are doing a great job and we cannot
(40:14):
thank them enough. And I'm like, why would you say that?
And my brother goes she wants the interview to in.
You understand, like everyone knows firemen do a great job.
Everyone knows they don't want to be thanked. So anyone
that ever said thank the fireman, they're cunt fuck.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
Pieces of shit? Can I say that they are? They are?
Speaker 2 (40:29):
They cancel me for that, and it was so full.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
Then you delete that to I'm so sorry. I gets
so worked up.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
But it is.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
It's an insult to the fireman. And they act like
they're shitting. Oh, there goes the cunt fuck alert. But
you know what I mean, Like they they insult everyone's
intelligence to being like, oh, Donald Trump's so bad, I
want to thank the fireman. The firemen are working their
answers off with no with no water or anything because
they were liberals, because because Gavin News was like, we
(40:57):
don't need the money, Well take the taxpayer money and
use it to fund an election by letting more.
Speaker 2 (41:03):
By the way, this is not a political podcast.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Go on, I know, I get, but the simple Honestly,
you guys have the follow he has a lot of insight.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
Can I change this too? No, one, fireman, don't take
the job to be thanked. And if you're a comedian,
like I believe, I still am am. I allowed to
be fucking angered and insulted that this guy's making millions
upon millions to to say shit and not care because oh, look,
it's an applause sign, and every excuse me, there's an
applause sign by me, every really fucking paid puppet in
(41:32):
the audience will laugh at it.
Speaker 4 (41:33):
And it's a goddamn disgrace. So when I say a joke.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Using a word about gay people, that begins with that
and say I don't have a problem with my brother
in law's gay, and I'm like, and I say this
because this is another thing about liberals, So like, oh
my god, if you're not if you don't vote for me,
you're not black and all this stuff.
Speaker 5 (41:49):
Now, yeah, do you want to hear my worst? Uh?
Speaker 2 (41:53):
Yeah, stage thank you, honey, he gets I want to
hear thank you you. I can't believe that.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
I don't even know what started.
Speaker 1 (42:04):
I can't even understand that she had a bad said
because I've seen her, so what would be your bad?
Speaker 4 (42:08):
So good?
Speaker 2 (42:09):
I love this story. It's a bad.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
I had one teaser, and I promise I will. She
told me this story afterwards and going to compliment you,
and I will get it. This is one of there
are three. I got two or three moments where I'm like,
oh my god, I'm gonna marry this girl.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
I just think about him.
Speaker 4 (42:27):
One of those moment is that fair?
Speaker 3 (42:29):
I just thought about I'm forgetting me.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
I just thought about you getting yelled by Kate Willard show.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
I can't I just give your friends.
Speaker 5 (42:40):
I came to mind, God, when I'm uncomfortable, I don't
think I should go anymore.
Speaker 4 (42:46):
And they apologize and they said it.
Speaker 3 (42:48):
They're like apologize no, but also okay.
Speaker 2 (42:50):
Well, it's another example. Who is a really funny comedian.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
She's great, she hustles, and she's also done TV and
it's hard for her to like it's not an easy crackle.
Speaker 3 (43:00):
Netflix for eight minutes, and she thought she had some
kind of my story.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Okay, yeah, your story anyway?
Speaker 5 (43:06):
Anyway, thank you, So, Chanel, I was at this is
probably and I've learned from this. I have a joke.
I'm not political done like my husband over there.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
Yeah, what would you say your set? If you can
just tell our audience, what is your set?
Speaker 5 (43:20):
Like, It's it's stories of my misspent youth. It's it's irreverent,
it's uh, I talk about my life a lot.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
Right For those of you who don't know, Keanu's also
really old soul, but she's really young. She's very emotionally mature,
which I don't know.
Speaker 2 (43:35):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (43:36):
I'm thirty two, which is the best exactly.
Speaker 1 (43:40):
But I met you when you were like twenty seven
twenty eight, and you were still mature.
Speaker 5 (43:44):
Well that that's why I married this elderly man. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
Yeah, for a really long time though, like maybe almost
over five years.
Speaker 5 (43:53):
Oh yeah, we were definitely banging for for a long time.
Oh gosh, what.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
I was not banging both of them just fy there. Yeah,
not for lack so I so I'm not political.
Speaker 5 (44:05):
I have one joke I think that maybe is a
little touchy in the political sense. It touches on abortion,
which I'm sorry if it's too much, but I uh yeah,
I'm I'm no one's pro abortion, but I'm pro choice,
Okay that, But the joke is more about gender reveal parties, okay,
and how the ridiculousness of a gender reveal party, and yeah,
(44:28):
it touches on abortion. Depending on the area, the joke
normally does. Well, if I'm in some bump fuck Ohio,
I know not to tell this joke because they're gonna groan.
But I was at a I was doing a giga
country club in I think in Pennsylvania, Okay, I was
doing a giga country club. And the joke is basically,
(44:51):
you know, if we're making up reasons to, you know,
throw parties, like a gender reveal party, you gather your
friends and family around pink balloons. Yeah it's the girl,
we all come right.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 5 (45:03):
And then I just say, like, if we're making up
reasons to throw parties, I feel like we should have
something that I like to call decision reveal parties. It's
the same concept, except you invite your family and friends
over and you reveal whether you're having an abortion or not.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (45:18):
Typically, yes, I see you went wow because.
Speaker 5 (45:22):
That's funny, it's brilliant.
Speaker 2 (45:24):
But it can get depending on the crowd.
Speaker 5 (45:27):
People are like, oh no, But basically I lean into
it and I go, it's just gonna get worse, so
buckle in. So but people that come out to a
comedy show, if you want to be offended by something,
then you're at the wrong place. Well, the question on
that go somewhere else?
Speaker 2 (45:42):
Do you stay in that?
Speaker 1 (45:43):
So you said depending on the crowd, right, Because I
have jokes like that too, where it will go really
well at a real club, Like I'm talking about a
house show.
Speaker 2 (45:50):
Yeah, and that's a different we can get into. That's
just too many details.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
Like I think psychologically, the house shows are like set
up for you to like win sure, So you can't
really tell at that it's a home game, like it's
a home run because they're setting you up already as
a comedian that opened up for so and so on
that they're gonna laugh. My point is, though, if it's
different crowds, I might not laugh. Do you still stick
with that joke?
Speaker 5 (46:08):
Oh yeah, I lean do it. But I had to
learn from this one. I was in the country club.
There was no leaving because they put you up in
the country club. They like, I'm staying in the I
was the only chick. I was staying, like the bridal
sweet and the whole crowd is there. I did twenty minutes.
I'm like, it was great. I'm having so much fun.
I tell the gender reveal party joke, it's going well.
(46:29):
And then there's a part in the gender reveal party
joke where I compare, you know, how you cut into
the cake. It's either pink or blue on the inside, right,
And then I say, you know, well, at the decision
reveal party, it's like this, we're having the baby birthday cake.
We're having an abortion red velvet that normally gets some groans,
(46:51):
but people were still laughing, still laughing. And then I say,
still just gonna get worse. And if it's angel food cake,
she missed Carrie, everybody go home. People were laughing.
Speaker 2 (47:03):
It's a real thing.
Speaker 5 (47:04):
Ye people were laughing, but one woman, and this is
a well lit room. It was not like I could
see every single person. People were laughing and laughing. One
lunatic woman, the town weirdo, stands up, raises her hand
in the.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Front row, in front front row, in my face, that's shitty.
Speaker 5 (47:31):
And I this was like kind of I mean quite
a few years ago where I didn't even know what
to say or how to react. You could hear a
fucking pin drop at that point. It was like a
fucking funeral procession. I went, I couldn't dig myself out
of it. I just was like, I think the only
thing I could come up with to say was I'm
so sorry. Have you had a miscarriage? That was okay,
(47:57):
So now now I'm really bombing. He walks out and
then I didn't even know it's at the end of
my set. I don't even continue the joke on I
get off stage.
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Everybody is.
Speaker 5 (48:09):
It was so shitty because it had gone so well before.
So I walk directly make a beeline for the bar.
There's a man sitting there with a glass of whiskey
like this yeah, and I was like, halways have a
white claw, he said, And he looks at me and
he goes, that was my wife. And I went, oh
my god, I'm so so sorry. He said, no, you
(48:29):
were pouring your heart out up there, and she just
had to fucking ruin it.
Speaker 1 (48:35):
That's why that happened, similar to me, where like this
guy thought I was funny, and then the girlfriend was like,
I felt that that was very offensive. And by the way,
your jeans are really offensive, like you can see a cameltoe.
And I was like, this bitch is just jealous. I'm like, gosh,
so I go to her. I'm like, you're so pretty
and you have everything going for you. You're really jealous
of me putting myself out there bombing like that's sad. Yeah,
to get your boyfriend's attention, like there's something else going on.
(48:57):
And that's where I feel like, how do you guys
cope with the hate? Like you know, it's one year
out the other.
Speaker 4 (49:02):
I I lean into it sometimes.
Speaker 2 (49:05):
No, but how do you go home like being like
they're not right.
Speaker 3 (49:07):
I don't want a middle ground and by the way,
circling back, and then I'll answer that.
Speaker 5 (49:13):
Actually, wait, that woman, that woman came up to me
after the show first of all, and then that man
like took like three cigarettes from me and like wouldn't
leave me alone even during the rest of the show,
and then she came up to me and she said,
you don't tell those kinds of jokes in this town.
Because she and I said, what, I can't tell that
(49:34):
joke in Scranton. She's like, no one thinks it's funny.
I was, like, your husband thought it was pretty fucking funny, bitch, Like.
Speaker 1 (49:42):
People always use that no one to like, that's like
a mom mentality, Like no one thinks to say that
all the time. Like going back also to your thing
where you're like, I struggled, I was sleeping on couches
to be a comic.
Speaker 2 (49:54):
My ax, you should be like, no one thinks you're funny,
and you haven't.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
Everyone thinks that you haven'ttruggled and slept on couches, so
you can't be funny. I'm like not every comment doesn't
and I have been. I struggled.
Speaker 2 (50:05):
You just don't know about it. People who don't know
about it.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
I just don't talk about it as much as low,
which maybe I should about my struggles to so people
can really know that I'm a real comedian. Give me
a fucking break. Any humor was not sleeping on couches.
Nicki Glazer was not like I can name. Mark Mormon
wasn't sleeping on couches.
Speaker 2 (50:22):
Sam Moro was not. Yes, there's a beauty to that,
but I'm saying you don't have to do that to
make real comedian.
Speaker 1 (50:27):
There's just these phrases that people will throw at you
to make you feel like you're not like this woman.
Speaker 2 (50:33):
Everybody.
Speaker 5 (50:34):
Yeah right, thank you for speaking for the entire country class,
but you made everybody uncomfortable. I didn't as far as
until you raised your hand. You've dumb, bitch. But you
have to have time.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
That's the thing.
Speaker 1 (50:45):
You have to have a very strong self, strong self
sense of self to say I'm still going to continue
these jokes and I'm still going to be a comedian
because a lot of comedians get run out because of that.
Speaker 3 (50:54):
Right, But.
Speaker 1 (50:56):
What makes you think somebody stands the test of time
and then people quit?
Speaker 4 (51:00):
Like why do you have an act that doesn't fold?
Speaker 3 (51:03):
Already said this to me once and he said, like, Jeane,
you have an act that doesn't fold. He's like you,
I'm a straight white male over fifty. You know how
I get jokes, how I get work. I have to
be funny. That's how I get work. It's a good
problem to have. I need to be funny.
Speaker 4 (51:20):
To get work.
Speaker 1 (51:21):
You used to tell me, like, why are you so
scared of like being funny, Like just do the fucking work,
like even if you don't get passed, like you gotta
be fun paper And that helped me. Yeah, yeah, that
really helped me. I'm like, you know what, He's right,
Like I should want to like write every day. I
should want to make it funny. I should want to
play a bar show even though I'm not passing anyone
that lets you.
Speaker 3 (51:37):
Yeah, because you're getting paid. And even people you know,
doing the clubs every night, they're getting you know, they're
getting paid. Yeah, and actually it's not badding some clubs anymore.
But it's not it's not going to fucking you know,
sustain you. You have to get the other stuff going,
you know. So you want to get on stage in
New York anywhere you can, anytime you can.
Speaker 2 (51:53):
To be funny, right, so you're prepared for that.
Speaker 3 (51:56):
I always tell this story and uh, and by the way,
the other finger saying it is like you don't if people.
Speaker 4 (52:01):
Hate you don't want to middle ground, do you? There's
no way.
Speaker 3 (52:04):
If you if if watch us, if what's the line
if you're the smartest person in the room. You're in
the wrong room, you know what I mean. Like you
don't want everyone to like you. I mean no, no,
everyone is not gonna like you. And like you don't
want to middle ground. I want people to be passionate
about what I say, correct one way or the other.
Correct and the people If anyone ever said I'm on
(52:28):
the fence with Gino, do you think I'm on the
vence with Chanel? Would you be like, let me go
win them over? Fuck you pick a side.
Speaker 2 (52:35):
Well, that's the problem. My sister says to me. You
really don't care people think.
Speaker 1 (52:38):
And I think that's why you don't have a lot
of people who your friends were like you. But I'm
not in this business to have that. No, because this
business is all solo. I'm lucky to have the two
of you.
Speaker 2 (52:47):
I'm lucky. This is a rare.
Speaker 5 (52:48):
We're lucky to have you.
Speaker 2 (52:50):
We're very lucky. But that's not the norm of the industry.
Speaker 5 (52:54):
No, it's true.
Speaker 4 (52:55):
No, it's about fucking what what can you give me?
What can I get?
Speaker 3 (52:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (52:59):
And and what's my value?
Speaker 3 (53:01):
And don't get me wrong, God bless them, that's what
they want you whatever you genuinely want and if that's
what they want, great. We talked about this on my
show on my show today.
Speaker 2 (53:12):
Yes, check out.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
By the way, I've been on his show, Patreoch.

the way, let them know.
Speaker 3 (53:20):
Well, I'll put it right in.

there you go.
Speaker 3 (53:24):

Speaker 2 (53:31):
Support Black Lives Matter. People don't support you do.
Speaker 4 (53:36):
I don't care if you're gay or normal. I don't
care if you're black or you. I don't care if
you're vaccinated or you can think we're.
Speaker 3 (53:46):
Not We're not.
Speaker 4 (53:50):
I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (53:51):
It's a joke, an editing nightmare.
Speaker 1 (53:54):
By the way, you could see all of us perform
are out of controlled jokes at Rodney's twenty.
Speaker 2 (54:00):
At what time.
Speaker 3 (54:02):
I believe it's a pm ABM.
Speaker 1 (54:04):
And you know what I love about Keanu and Gino
is that you're very like You remind me of the
Adam Sandler crew, where like you'll bring everyone.
Speaker 2 (54:09):
You come up with.
Speaker 4 (54:10):
Yeah we take care of our own.
Speaker 2 (54:12):
Yeah, you take care of your own.
Speaker 4 (54:13):
And it's amazing how some people forget that, and you're like,
all right, what meant to be?
Speaker 2 (54:16):
They do?
Speaker 3 (54:17):
They do?
Speaker 1 (54:17):
Forget that you'll make it big and then you'll like
hire all of us. And I was like, why wasn't
I nice to Geno? And You're like, you're dumb fox
because you weren't nice to me.
Speaker 3 (54:24):
All this time.
Speaker 4 (54:26):
My mother I say this all the time.
Speaker 3 (54:27):
She gets to like I grew up on a farm
in South Jersey and my dad was a farmer, but
he also did electrical work.
Speaker 4 (54:33):
And my uncle Frank lived.
Speaker 3 (54:35):
Across Oh you come from common folks, I do from
plaino folks. I mightna go Frank with a plumber and
he lived across the street. Because my mother and her sister,
my an Olga, they were sisters, they lived across the
street from each other. I make every stir too long,
But bottom line is I'd say, hey, Mom, why did
Dad get up in the middle of the night and
go fix that woman's you know, electrical little circuit? And
why did Uncle Frank get up at three in the
(54:55):
morning and all getting go fix that woman's hot.
Speaker 4 (54:57):
Water heater and get nothing for it? Because he's a jerk, you.
Speaker 2 (55:01):
Know, because he really went down on them.
Speaker 5 (55:03):
Yeah, I know he fixed an electrical circuit of a navy.
Speaker 4 (55:07):
Fixed on black box.
Speaker 3 (55:08):
But I'm saying no, and we I think I didn't.
Speaker 2 (55:14):
Even Jews are like that too.
Speaker 3 (55:15):
We have a but were It's it's about the people
you were, how you were raised. And I just do
things for people that are good at what they do,
and I expect they'll treat me the same, and usually
they do. They do, they do?
Speaker 2 (55:26):
You have confidence.
Speaker 1 (55:27):
One thing I want to go to is that these
two are newlyweds, and let me tell you to talk
about dating a little bit, because we do talk about
like my rant because like I don't agree with dating
or marrying someone in your industry because it hasn't worked
for me or others.
Speaker 2 (55:41):
But there are a few couples that it's worked for.
Speaker 3 (55:44):
Why don't you talk? Yah?
Speaker 1 (55:47):
Yeah, Bonnie and which was my favorite couple of favorite
humans like you two? But what do you think works
for you too? Because most of the time you really
can't ship were you especially in comedy, right, we would
have about each other anyway. It's something and also with
the comedy when.
Speaker 3 (56:02):
They met their podcast, talk to us about how because.
Speaker 5 (56:06):
We met because I would often be a guest on
the shows at Compound Media. And even though I mean
we were just hooking up a kind of behind some
shitty uh xes of ours backs for on and off
for five years, but I always knew, even when it
wasn't him, it was always going to be him because
(56:28):
we click. We disagree on so much in life, but
we genuinely enjoy each other.
Speaker 4 (56:37):
Penis is too like it's too big.
Speaker 1 (56:40):
It's always the big dig energy that keeps you around,
Like me and my ex. I still talk about him
two years later, and he's like, I don't know you.
I fu twenty eight year ols. But anyway, uh I.
Speaker 5 (56:50):
Put this in our vows Chanel, I said, the first
time I met, you know, he was drunk at ten am,
surrounded by fans at Compound Media, and I walked in
and he said, they will let anyone in here.
Speaker 2 (57:05):
Hey hatyry said.
Speaker 5 (57:14):
They will let anyone in here, Hey hoty I was hooked.
Speaker 1 (57:19):
But what made you take it to the next level
of five years on and off? Usually a person doesn't
commit when that happens, Like what made you guys finally
say we're committed?
Speaker 2 (57:28):
We don't give a show what the innergy.
Speaker 3 (57:29):
Says funny and she's genuine and the story I didn't
I didn't get to it, and it's perfectly put. Now
that show she did where someone goes, she's you're shitty.
We're like that ship that's shitty.
Speaker 4 (57:42):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (57:42):
She goes like it was a correct me. If I'm wrong,
I'm paying. She's like, it's her.
Speaker 4 (57:47):
First big weekend.
Speaker 3 (57:49):
Like remember, she's like, she's doing a Friday and a
Saturday at two different places. They're paying her good money,
they're putting her up, and she's nervous and like, I
don't mean and she's like, I'm like, and I just say.
Speaker 4 (57:58):
You're gonna be great, You're gonna be fun. So I
call her Friday after the first show how to Go?
Speaker 3 (58:03):
And she doesn't say, god him great. Well, she goes
like this, I don't want to get up stage.
Speaker 5 (58:07):
I did.
Speaker 3 (58:07):
That's a comic. She's like, I was doing so well
or something not I was funny. I don't want to
get That's all I need to know. So I know
she's good, right, like not that I didn't know. Second
night then I think I called her how it Go?
And she goes, you want to hear about the seventeen
minutes I killed or the three minutes where a woman
raised her hand and said my joke was shitty and
I didn't know how to get the hell out of it,
(58:28):
and I and that's a comic, guy, I go like this,
tell me the shitty part, because that's a comic. You
know I'm funny. I know you're funny. I don't have
to tell you all my funny stories. But don't you
want to know when I'm eating a dick on stage?
Speaker 1 (58:40):
But to not compare and not to bring it over
for like, not to talk about a few se because
my audience knows about this already.
Speaker 2 (58:46):
My ex would never say that.
Speaker 3 (58:48):
So maybe he didn't think you were funny and he
just thought you were hot. Take the compliment. I don't
think you both. I thought.
Speaker 2 (58:53):
I think he because he hid me.
Speaker 3 (58:54):
He's not going to be with you.
Speaker 2 (58:56):
No, you're a secret, they're gonna be with you.
Speaker 3 (59:00):
He with you.
Speaker 2 (59:00):
If you're a secret, you're gonna fuck your vagina and
not care anything.
Speaker 3 (59:04):
Hoty just doesn't think you're funny. No one's fucking up.
Speaker 2 (59:07):
I think I think he was I'm the wife. I
think he was probably jealous.
Speaker 5 (59:16):
He's in comedy too, right, Yeah, but he's not a comedian, right,
but he was probably jealous and intimidated.
Speaker 1 (59:22):
So why help younger girls? So why help others? Like
my question is if you guys were just fuck.
Speaker 5 (59:28):
You over, that's the only he's a bad dude, then
I guess, like you didn't get married.
Speaker 1 (59:34):
If you guys didn't get married, do you think you
would still support her? Knowing because she's funny.
Speaker 5 (59:39):
He always was even when I was with other guy
in other relationships, he would always want to cry because
you guys.
Speaker 3 (59:51):
When she was another guy and there was a buddy
of mine over a compound and I'd be like, I'd
be like I'd go see her when we'd have drinks,
and then she'd leave.
Speaker 4 (59:59):
Because I didn't want to get you know.
Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
And then the next day, like saying my buddy on there,
I'm like, hey, I was hanging out gunner. He's like,
I gotta go. Her and her boyfriend are doing great.
He's like, that's great. In't that great? Bobby?
Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
In that great?
Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
That's my things? Like did you feel Keanu even though
you know you're funny? And I know him funny? Like
meaning now from an egle point, I know what I
can bring to the table, so to argue with me
after you're sleeping with me.
Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
It's also like a low blow.
Speaker 1 (01:00:21):
But did you feel like you needed Geno to support
you and like put like voucher you or you were like,
I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (01:00:27):
Make this on my own whether or not my boyfriend.
Speaker 3 (01:00:30):
No.
Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
And is that a double standard because a lot of
people say.
Speaker 3 (01:00:34):
Oh, you funked him to get on stage.
Speaker 5 (01:00:37):
Actually I would venture to say i'd get on stage
more him.
Speaker 3 (01:00:42):
Yeah, I think I think she's doing well in spite
of me. Yeah, and I call the guy that screams
the word and hates juice.
Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
This is the funniest joke because like Keano me had
a talk offline. You know, she's a girl's girl and
she took me to a bar once because I was
really getting obsessed, and she goes, no, you don't have
to stoop down low to your ex and be a
better person. And you should know, Like it was so
funny because I'm like, shit, I should have talked to
you before I dated him. She's like, and you should
know that if you didn't date him, you'd probably get
more stage time. So go back to that point where
(01:01:13):
you would just go well, but that's hard to do
when you have gay keepers.
Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
And you know that more.
Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
If my ex wants a twenty eight year old to
succeed in the comedy clubs and he has power for that,
he's gonna make that girl succeed.
Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
It not me.
Speaker 1 (01:01:26):
And that's the power of like, my talent might not
be showcased because I gotta believe.
Speaker 5 (01:01:30):
In me, no bottom line comedy or not. No one
should ever hide you like you see that's that's no.
Speaker 1 (01:01:39):
But this is my audience wants to hear this because
a lot of my audience they become these secret side
chicks and they don't know what to do.
Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
So what would your advice be?
Speaker 5 (01:01:47):
I guess, like what advice is even though you may
feel like doesn't every girl all the time just feel
like worthless and nothing or whatever, But you're not number one.
You just have to pull yourself out of that and
also say, like, you know what, it's not worth It's
not worth my quality of life to fuck around with you.
(01:02:08):
You don't get to make me feel bad. I make
myself feel bad enough. I'll never tell youthing that but nails, nails, nails,
and you know what, shut up and fucking blow me,
how about that.
Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
But that's the thing that goes back to what you said,
how like high school comedies like high school without like
money Letterman said it now Geno said it, and you
said to me. Also maybe because he didn't think you
were funny. So it's a popularity contest because I could
be technically factually funny. But you're right if he did
not think I fit in with his posse, Like if
the stupid dumbass staff, with all due respect, who doesn't know, sorry,
(01:02:42):
the staff doesn't know. Staff doesn't know because the staff
is not on stage like us, so they don't know.
They can be seeing they're not really tuning in. They're
making drinks. It's a different ballgame. Also, go make your
drinks better. Anyway, we're gonna walk.
Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
Sorry, We're gonna.
Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
Like like go have a bartending class, like don't ask
for eighty round a year, and then like ship on
well known comics that really put their artwork in it
and then be like I don't think they're funny. It's
like that's why you got fired from the other club. Anyway,
We're gonna move on from that. Sorry, right, Yeah, we're
almost Yeah, we'renna wrap up soon. But my point is is,
like how do you get around that, whether you date.
Speaker 2 (01:03:16):
Someone, you don't date someone.
Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
Do you stick into a relationship that doesn't support you?
You shouldn't, Okay, you surround like relationships, do you say
it's not common or not bad.
Speaker 3 (01:03:30):
Dating like the people you surround yourself with or what
you get you are where you think about all day?
Like like you surround.
Speaker 4 (01:03:37):
Yourself with the people and you'll you'll you'll be in
that world.
Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
The different thing if you you, let's say everyone you
respect says you're not funny?
Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Do you still think you can make it?
Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
If that's your what if that's your dream? Do you
think you can still make it? But if everyone say.
Speaker 3 (01:03:50):
But no one, no one, that everyone that I respect
not only tell me that I'm funny, tell me what
they tell me when I'm not funny. They tell me
what I'm fucking up. They tell me, you know, like this,
and like that's what you do? You like, I I've had.
Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
More reps than anyone.
Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
I'm in my fifties, so I'm used to fucking yes, man,
I've listened to fucking you know, like I don't fucking
you know. That's why when people lean into me like
in controls and something like you're no faceless nobody, So
I'll push.
Speaker 4 (01:04:20):
Back on you. I don't care.
Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
I'll answer your questions now because Gino has an unabashed
confidence about him, which is what is so attractive.
Speaker 4 (01:04:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:04:28):
Well, don't you think.
Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
Gino would tell me if I was really bad? He
would tell me he I.
Speaker 3 (01:04:32):
Wouldn't beg you to come to our apartment and do
this show that yeah and make that fla for three hours?
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
But really, really, would you tell me on state like
you see me?
Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
Would you if you it was really really bad like
everyone says I am, would you.
Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
Say maybe you should?
Speaker 5 (01:04:45):
Chanel, you're not listening to the two people that are here.
They're your actual friends that are telling you how funny
you are. Never it's always the negative comments that come
into your brain, but you never you never hear the
ones that are you're obvious, not funny.
Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
The people that aren't silent, they never hear the people
that tell them they aren't funny, is what you're saying, right? Yes?
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Se, what's the secret to like tell the gatekeepers?
Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
I guess if people want to be in comedy, they
want to stick it out and they don't want to
give up, and they don't have friends like us.
Speaker 5 (01:05:16):
What would you say that if somebody is fucking If
you're rolling around the city and people are telling you
you aren't funny, you should take that as you are
fucking funny and people are fucking worried about it.
Speaker 3 (01:05:27):
People want to read up.
Speaker 5 (01:05:28):
Wow, it's true. They're fucking jealous. No, it's not funny,
that's stupid. No, you're fucking jealous of that joke, bitch.
Speaker 3 (01:05:36):
But that's now.
Speaker 1 (01:05:37):
Do you think the other comics that they do say
are funny and that are always on stage they're just
scared of them.
Speaker 5 (01:05:42):
No, they want to fucking suck their dicks.
Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
And it's also evolved into this because then this is
another thing. When I first got off here, I'm one
hundred and seven, and I'm like, you go right to
the Comedy Seller two thousand and one, two thousand and two,
and you're hanging out saying Somethingy're going to be at
the comic table with the unwoke Bill Burr, Nick Depollo,
Jim Norton.
Speaker 5 (01:06:05):
Uh, Gregy the way.
Speaker 3 (01:06:07):
And you want to hang out with them, and you
know what they're doing at that table, busting each.
Speaker 4 (01:06:12):
Other's balls because I know you're funny.
Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
So I'm gonna tell you how many times you're not
funny while busting your balls, and I know you're funny now,
Like Larry Baya Black Colored Fellas sat here yesterday, but
we were laughing because he was the guy when it
started to change. Larry's fucking funny. He's like he would
go to the cellar and rather than sit at the
comics table when we were both passed that brief time,
(01:06:36):
we'd sit at the bar. Because at that the kids
at the comic tables were these young, woke, getting woke
kids who wouldn't talk.
Speaker 4 (01:06:43):
Bust each other's balls.
Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
They'd be like, oh, I love the way that Bill
Burr and and and and Dave Chappelle, the craft that
went on, like I don't.
Speaker 4 (01:06:50):
Care, you don't care.
Speaker 5 (01:06:52):
There's nothing worse than like talking black people, nothing craft
of comedy with It's like, I don't want to talk
about the fucking craft. If you're my friend, then we
want to make fun of each other.
Speaker 1 (01:07:03):
That's where fucking even SD from comedy seller once told me,
and she's the one the woman you want impress.
Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
She's the booker there said.
Speaker 1 (01:07:12):
You know, even if you don't pass here, it doesn't
mean you're not funny, and that like hit home. She knew,
Like she's like, it's not about you, it's just my
way of booking, And it doesn't mean you can't make.
Speaker 2 (01:07:22):
A successful to say she doesn't have to say that.
Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
She doesn't talk to anyone, no, you know, thank god,
she's israelly, like is really sister from another but like
she was, and she's intimidating. But it's like I took
that and I was like, you know what, I'm going
to take that to the grave, like you know, and
I encourage everyone to still do it. Anyway, let's talk
about the secret tip for how to make a successful relationship.
Like you guys, like, what do you think the secret is?
Speaker 3 (01:07:49):
I believe. I believe Casey Musgraves send it best.
Speaker 4 (01:07:53):
Mind your own business.
Speaker 3 (01:07:54):
In life will be gravy the way.
Speaker 2 (01:07:59):
What do you your own business?
Speaker 5 (01:08:00):
I feel like I mind for you, mind your own business,
mindrown biscuits.
Speaker 3 (01:08:05):
But the line I was looking for is own your
own crazy. That's what I could own. So when you
fuck up, just own it. Yeah I didn't, I God forget,
I didn't mean like smoked your own smoke and and what.
Speaker 5 (01:08:18):
Is it mind your own biscuit in last year.
Speaker 3 (01:08:23):
Terribly last night. But the line I love is smoke
your own smoke and own your own crazy, like when
you fuck up, own it. You know it works without
a doubt.
Speaker 4 (01:08:32):
Like I'm not perfect.
Speaker 3 (01:08:33):
I know that's hard to believe, but I will never
change the way I am. It's like I'm like, I'll apologize,
but I'm gonna do it again. We're not gonna do
terrible things again. But it's like this is how I am.
I'm open, I'm loud, I fucking do what I want
to do, and it's usually right.
Speaker 4 (01:08:48):
When it's I'm like, my bad.
Speaker 5 (01:08:50):
I wouldn't even say it's usually right. But here's the secret.
Speaker 2 (01:08:53):
Yeah, what's the secret, Kiki.
Speaker 5 (01:08:55):
Enjoy spending time with that person, enjoy having sex with
that person. I know, look at him, right.
Speaker 3 (01:09:03):
I don't take it by and lucky gown.
Speaker 5 (01:09:06):
If you just if you have a smile on your
face and you can make each other laugh, and and
even if you bicker and argue because he wears a
headband and he refuses to stop, you know, leaving tissues
all around the house, just put the tissues.
Speaker 4 (01:09:24):
Every morning.
Speaker 5 (01:09:26):
I know, exactly. Just be obsessed with each other. And
even when you're not obsessed with each other, then put
her foot in your mouth.
Speaker 1 (01:09:33):
That's how you become though, Like that's the one, right,
It's like and you can work it out and like
you're annoying with each other, but you still want it.
Speaker 3 (01:09:39):
But it's a Mediterranean thing. It's like we fight like
I don't.
Speaker 4 (01:09:44):
If I don't like someone, I don't fight with them.
I go, what a piece of shit? And I walk away.
You don't I know.
Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
I used to argue with my exes, like people will
love each other really don't fight. I'm like, you're living
in Lalla landage.
Speaker 4 (01:09:56):
Each other. Don't fight with each other.
Speaker 2 (01:09:58):
Right, it's hard work, right, I get.
Speaker 3 (01:09:59):
That ship all time? Oh, Gino turned on this guy?
No no, I thought you were my friend.
Speaker 2 (01:10:03):
No no, there's nothing more.
Speaker 4 (01:10:04):
Friends were done fighting.
Speaker 3 (01:10:05):
I'm sorry, baby.
Speaker 5 (01:10:06):
There is nothing more toxic than silence. I mean, right, Italians,
Maybe we work it out or yeah, there's nothing, get out.
Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
Of here, all right, we're getting a divorce.
Speaker 5 (01:10:16):
Never mind.

But let's get into it. I've been friends with these
two beautiful human beings for a long time. Gino and
Keanu believe in my comedy. They're fantastic comedians and hilarious.
You guys can check them out on the road. You
can check them out at Rodney's February twentieth. Yes, I'm
(01:24):
gonna be on the show. You've been doing comedy for
a really long time.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Yeah, you'd think more people would know who the fuck
I am?
Speaker 4 (01:32):
Can I say people know?
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yes, you can't say, good Lord.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Do you know who the fuck he is?
Speaker 3 (01:36):
That's right, that's what you say when you show up
at gig. But yes, you would think more people would
know I am.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
But I don't. I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
I've always just been doing comedy, getting on stage, telling
the jokes, seeing where it leads me.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Today, it led me to your show.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Well, let's talk.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
About that, because a lot of people don't understand. You know, Santa,
comedy is constantly changing, and you've been doing it for
a long time. Tell us what you mean by that, Like,
what do you think has been different since?
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Well?
Speaker 4 (01:59):
I think since I got in and I started.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
I when I first got up here to New York,
I I'd already been doing comedy for quite some time
in I always say Philly, right outside of Philly, whatever.
And I'm starting out in bars, so I have to
go into the crowd, do a lot of crowd. I
don't have to, but I do. That's how I start.
So I'm always doing crowd work, but I'm also doing
stand up. But that's what I like, so I can't
(02:21):
ignore the crowd. And then comics that started up here,
and God bless them, they're great. They know how to
do their set, and don't get me wrong, I probably
could have crafted a set like that, but I always
just liked bouncing off the crowd, feeding off the energy
doing that. So that's what I've been doing since I
got up here. And it's evolved a lot since then.
You know, it's moved from it's moved from doing stand
(02:42):
up excuse me from stand up to you know, all
the social media apps. And then you need a big
following on TikTok more than you need to be funny,
and you need to have dei stuff which brings planes
down out of.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
You, really feel, I'm just trying to walk through. The
white guys are backs.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Yeah, and by the way, there now, just sit back
and wait for the work to come to me because
you know, the comedy industry is dying to have straight
white men over fifty doing shows.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
But we also talk about like we talked about this
where stand up comedy is like the foundation, but a
lot of stand up comics they pray and they want
to be like a full time host, Like how you
were on Compound Media. Sure, you know, had a successful
show for eight years on Compound Media in hot Water
and it's still continuing in our apartment.
Speaker 2 (03:28):
Apartment, And what do you in, Keanu?
Speaker 1 (03:31):
You can chime in, like what is this whole obsession
you think of like getting past at the clubs as
opposed to kind of like starting your own brand when
comics really strive to have like an on camera full
time work, right, we're not doing stand up to do
stand up.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
When I started comedy, I think it was it was
on its way out of like hanging out at the
clubs sort of. It was the whole social media craze
and like yeah, like I mean, look, how successful there's
some comics all of a sudden we're like, oh my god,
they're you know, headlining theaters. Matt Wright, for example, off
of one TikTok video. So I would when did I
(04:09):
start comedy? Maybe I graduated college in twenty fifteen, wow,
and then I started because a professor of mine.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
Told me.
Speaker 5 (04:18):
He was like, you're a great writer. I know you're
moving to New York. This is going to sound crazy,
but I used to do stand up in New York.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You should try it.
Speaker 5 (04:27):
I'm like, you're crazy daily news then you're just nuts.
And then I did and I fell in love with it.
But that was almost right there at the shift of like, okay,
hanging out the clubs and like just getting waiting to
get like thrown up there on the stage was almost
sort of on its way out. Now it's sort of
(04:48):
to me, really out, And what really does it do
to be I don't know, maybe Chanelle you understand this,
Like what does it do to be past it?
Speaker 2 (04:57):
All of the clubs?
Speaker 5 (04:57):
It's great, but is that what we're aiming for? When
you could just surpass all of that and be like
somebody that is selling out clubs and venues, Like if
you're on a reality television show, you know, right.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Right, like what's the next goal? Like you can do
the clubs every day and that might be a form
of success. But then when you're doing the clubs every day.
You want more, you want mass media success.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
In comedy, in any in any industry. I believe, no
matter where you are, you're here, and no matter where
you are, there's thousands upon thousands of people saying how
do I get there? Yeah, And there's just as you're saying,
how do I get to where these thousands and thousands are?
So you're always looking for the next thing, like you said, right,
so you never know what the next thing, Well you
(05:47):
should know what the next thing is, right.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Right, But the thing is also like hanging back to
what Piano Sai about hanging out in clubs. I got
to be honest from my experience, when I hung out
at clubs, I didn't get thrown on stage.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
And I would even ask when did you clubs? I
would say right after.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
COVID, before COD and then after Cold I hung out
of club.
Speaker 2 (06:04):
So I don't hang out.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
I just like let myself get booked by sending my tape,
by sending my accolades, my credits, and if that can.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
Get me in.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Because I see a lot of comics that don't hang out,
and they get booked based on their merit.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
So what's what are we do?
Speaker 5 (06:17):
Is their merit or their social media following.
Speaker 2 (06:20):
But there's that's all. Yeah, but there's people that literally
have a two thousand followers.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
But there's people that have a thousand followers and they're
still getting on stage by not hanging out and just
sending a quick tape that might or might not be
that funny.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
I believe you.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
I don't even know anymore because when I got up
here early two thousands, I would I did the hang
and I love the hang and it was how to
in two thousand and three and four.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
Yeah, that was the procedure. You get up here.
Speaker 3 (06:47):
I always say this story, like when I got out here,
I'm like, all right, I came from Delaware. I'm like,
all right, you're right outside of Philly, but it's Delaware. Uh.
And Delaware was great to start coming. It was in Wilmington, Delaware.
And when you're first starting going anywhere you can, you know,
you don't get and you are twenty minutes from Philly,
you're an hour from Baltimore, ninety minutes from DC, and
(07:08):
you're two hours from the city because you're driving at night.
So I would go all over and then after a
while it's like you're living in New York. Excuse me,
you're living in Delaware. You're like, if I don't move
up to New York, I'm fully shit. It's not like
I live in Nevada or a Nevada excuse me, or
the Midwest. It's like, I just need to put everything
I own in my car, drive two hours north, sleep
on a couchli And I did that. So then you're
(07:30):
up here and you're hanging out at the clubs and
you're meeting people, and you're networking, and you're doing their
bar gigs, and someone sees you and then you live that.
That was the old model. It's like, all right, now,
I've got fifteen minutes and I'm known, and I'll get
I'll get an agent, I'll get a festival, I'll get
a thing, I'll get a late night and all that stuff.
But I could never get the tape out because, as
I said earlier, I like fucking dealing with the crowd
(07:52):
and I couldn't do a clean tape. And that's on me,
not complaining. But I found my own way, you know.
I would do shows and then I like on radio,
and I did you know, I did the Stern channels
and I met already lang and I did his podcast
and I wound up working for Anthony Coomie and all that,
and that's great, that's great, But that was my model
and you got it from nowhere in that statement. Did
(08:13):
you hear the in that diatribe?
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Excuse me?
Speaker 3 (08:16):
Did you hear social media or TikTok or Instagram? You know?
And that's why I'm setting my weight.
Speaker 4 (08:20):
So it's like I don't have that stuff. I have
it now, but I'm not good at it and I'm
learning it. But I'm on my path.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
God, you have such a young wife, you see exactly.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
But you're saying the same thing, like you don't do
the hang right, you do the social media.
Speaker 5 (08:34):
I love to hang out just to hang out, and
that has gone.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
She doesn't expect to get on stage because of it.
Speaker 5 (08:39):
Of great, Yeah, and that's the thing the same with me.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
I don't because I come from reality to me and
acting and hosting that we don't hang after shows.
Speaker 2 (08:48):
Like actors are very like, I.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Do my thing. I come on time, I leave. They
don't want to just hang even if they like you and.
Speaker 4 (08:56):
The old days, if you came on time, you get
a lot of work. Hottie it's for it.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
I was waiting for you.
Speaker 1 (09:03):
I wanted to take me for an example, like if
I didn't hang I love hanging out the two of you,
genuine we're genuine friends. But if I didn't, would you
guys hold that against me or be like, oh, she's
good at what she does, so like all no, because.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
You're busy and a lot of times you don't show up.
You know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (09:19):
It's like, no, us, it took us for ever to
get this thing because one of us always had to
cancel and we were like, how the fuck. It's like, good,
you're busy.
Speaker 4 (09:27):
How many times do I text back you? Busy is good?
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Busy is good? No one's you for being busy?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
I am.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
I get wet when people cancel plans.
Speaker 4 (09:37):
Yeah I agree.
Speaker 5 (09:37):
I'm like, uh, it doesn't bother me. Not that I
don't want to hang out with the person, but it's like, okay,
you know what, it never offends me canceling plan?
Speaker 4 (09:47):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (09:48):
I agree, So you don't think it's it offends me
when people get offended by kids. Oh I came down,
but I changed.
Speaker 4 (09:55):
You're not David Letterman, You're not you know, sorry, baby?
Speaker 5 (09:58):
What it's like but I, well, I wish I would
have known earlier.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
Shut up.
Speaker 3 (10:03):
Okay. You know what else drives me nuts when people
get mad, And don't get me wrong, when when absolute
fucking nobody's get mad at you for not remembering their name?
Who the fuck are you? I can't remember important names.
I tell the story all the time, same thing from
a show we did earlier.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
My buddy Bamba.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
I would go to his place every his kids were
six months apart, so every six months birthday. And I
went one time and I met this guy.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
His name is I'll never forget. His name is Dan.
And I met him one time.
Speaker 3 (10:30):
And six months later, I'm down there in Wilmington, Delaware,
middle of fucking nowhere, talking to some fucking suburban fucking
zero with his two kids, and I go, hey, he goes,
you know, how are you good?
Speaker 4 (10:39):
I'm like, how are you? Buddy? He goes, he goes
like this, you don't remember my name?
Speaker 2 (10:43):
Do you?
Speaker 3 (10:43):
And I go like this, I don't go. I'm like no,
I'm sorry, and I'm like, what is it? He goes
and he walks away, and.
Speaker 5 (10:49):
That is emotional, and it is Terrorism's a fucking nobody. No,
not you, not you not you to say you don't
remember who I am. Yeah, you that is so non.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Not just because I don't remember your name.
Speaker 5 (11:04):
There's something called decorum if you can tell why would
you call me out on.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
I went up to my buddy and I said, what's
his name? I go that guy Danny goes yeah, He's
like yeah, he's a good guy in the ways.
Speaker 4 (11:14):
I'm like, say, you're telling me all you need to know.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
I'm like, trust me, I'm coming back every six months,
and I will call him every name that begins with
D except Danny everyone, because like, you could get my
name wrong when I go on stage to this day, Hey,
what's your uh.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Hey gino, what's your intro? I want to get your
credits right?
Speaker 3 (11:32):
And now just go And I say you can say
in hot water no I and I got through it.
And I'm like, and if you get my name or
credits wrong, no one's gonna correct you. Don't worry about it,
you know what I mean? But you get these people
like that are noticed, like, make sure you get my
name right, make me remember your fucking name.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
Well, that's the thing like about the two of you.
I wonder where that comes from. Where you guys don't
really lead by ego.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
You do your own thing. You beat your own drum,
Like where did that?
Speaker 3 (11:57):
Like?
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Did you? Guys?
Speaker 3 (11:58):
You can I'm going to beat you to it, and
then we're going to talk about.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
How you like force Keiki to like date you and
you're like thirty years old. Other than that, now we're
going to talk about like shitting where you eat. It
worked for these two, but it would never work for
someone like me. So don't take a page out of
my book. All I'm saying is there's things that work
for the two of you.
Speaker 3 (12:17):
What do you think it is like Mexicans?
Speaker 4 (12:19):
Mexicans work for the two of us?
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Okay, I mean the ones that can cross the border. Okay, Now.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Kiki is gonna be the one who's gonna be refereeing
this whole podcast and be like, this is what you
two can say.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
You can't say, are.
Speaker 5 (12:32):
We allowed to curse on here?
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Cause he's been.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Yeah, just as much as we limited as much as
possible because I don't know YouTube if I put it
on YouTube, is that.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
No cursing is fine just toward words?
Speaker 3 (12:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (12:43):
Yeah, well yes, well.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
What do you what do you think it is? Kiki?
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Like, did you plan this where you're like, we're going
to be to our own drum? Or were you like,
because you know, we know that that comedy is a
lot like high school. And I'm gonna let you say
that famous line told me where.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
David said, it's like, it's like entertainment is like high
school with money money.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
How do we not be to that drum?
Speaker 5 (13:03):
Like?
Speaker 1 (13:03):
How do you not follow that? Let that noise affect
your success?
Speaker 5 (13:07):
Well, I beating to my own drum is something I've
always liked in high school. I didn't even think that
anybody really liked me.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I have always just been.
Speaker 5 (13:18):
On my own path.
Speaker 2 (13:19):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:21):
I pride myself and I think Eugene is the same
exact way I pride myself in being genuine. I don't
know how any how any authentic.
Speaker 3 (13:32):
I don't know how.
Speaker 5 (13:33):
I don't know another way to be so and starry.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
By the way, for all of those who don't know Kei,
Ky's a skilled actress, so it's even harder to be
authentic when.
Speaker 3 (13:41):
You're still skilled.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
He's great, and it's hard to be like authentic and
act like it's right.
Speaker 3 (13:50):
Can I go the other way? It's hard? That makes sense,
But it's hard for people like us, and.
Speaker 4 (13:55):
This includes you. Hope you take this complment.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
I'm sure you will to be inauthentic because it's hard
to live that many lies. It's hard to be that
many people where.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
This is where I have.
Speaker 5 (14:06):
This is why I'm not a famous actress. She's so
because I have a This is why stand up is
better for me, because it's me. It's more genuine to me.
It is hard for me to act a certain way.
I'm not saying I'm a terrible actress.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
I can.
Speaker 5 (14:22):
I can get through it. But they always said, like Jana,
you're meant for soap operas. I'm like, well you may
as well just put a bullet in mind.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
Right, they made great money. But I'm like, you're telling
me I'm a terrible actress.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
Is that what you're telling me?
Speaker 4 (14:34):
All right?
Speaker 3 (14:35):
John Balayah? And that's a callback to our shows. Its
streme if I may pay her a compliment. And this
is why she's authentic, and this is why she's a comedian,
and this is why I became Look, i became a comedian.
And I've said this a lot comedy, you don't We
talked about this earlier with the guy from Jersey Shore
when he goes, I'm doing comedy now. No genuine comedian
(14:58):
ever said that. You don't say now to try comedy.
Comedy sucks you in comedy chooses you.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
It does, and say, what made you guys do commic?
Speaker 3 (15:07):
Kean told the story about you told that sirt like
the guy's like, try comedy and did you tell it?
Speaker 5 (15:12):
And and the class and I went because he was
a solo performance class and he like took me under
his wing.
Speaker 4 (15:21):
And he who was your comedy teacher?
Speaker 2 (15:24):
See everyone?
Speaker 5 (15:24):
He was in our wedding. His name was Kevin Dombrowski,
but that was.
Speaker 4 (15:27):
What he just got past the seller.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
Kevin Dombrowski is one of my favorite comics and he's
one of one of my closest friends in the orley.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Just got past there. It's long over due.
Speaker 3 (15:36):
He's great.
Speaker 4 (15:37):
Sorry to interrupt.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
He got past their people.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Yeah, and he told me, I mean, he was like,
I just got pasted the seller.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
He's like remember that. He's something like don't roll your
eyes at no, go on.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
Good for him because he is great, incredible. Actually, I
so yeah, I went. I had a teacher that said
I it was a solo performance class. So solo performance
is like stand up but like the play, and it's
not joke joke joke, joke joke, it's like Eric Bogosian
sort of things. And he loved my writing and just said,
(16:07):
I think you should try this.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
I know you're moving to New York and.
Speaker 5 (16:10):
I'm like, yeah, you're crazy. But the moment I did,
I called my dad and I went, I took a
class at the Comedy sell and then you do that,
you know, performance or whatever. Because I just didn't know
how to get into it. I didn't know who to
talk to her, like how to like work my way in.
I didn't know like really about open mics. And then
(16:31):
I called my dad after that, like little class performance,
I was like, that's the best thing I've ever done.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
What does it make you feel?
Speaker 4 (16:41):
Like?
Speaker 2 (16:42):
What does it make you feel when you get on stage?
Speaker 5 (16:43):
That's that high, right, it's like, oh my god. And
it's different from acting because acting is almost easier. And
even though acting is so hard because you know, it's
remembering lines, it's character, it's trying to be somebody else,
it's almost even and it's like, oh, I can be myself,
but is myself funny enough? So there's the give and
(17:06):
take of that. I was addicted to it from the
moment I did it, and I not that I wouldn't
still act, but this is the path I've gone down now,
So what.
Speaker 2 (17:19):
Inspired like each of you behind?
Speaker 1 (17:22):
You know, you guys are really funny and like, yeah,
you say you do crowd work, but you guys have
like really good jokes too that I've been well written
and well thought out. And by the way, the secret
to comedy that people don't realize is you have to
say it over and over again as if like you
just said.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It in that moment.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
Yeah, what inspires you and her? You guys have different
sets to like keep to your content and not stray
away because of what others say.
Speaker 3 (17:44):
Well, I evolved if I'm going first, I evolved to
this because you know.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
You are going first in a sense, not with.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
That attitude I was saying.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
But it's again, he's a one minute man, ladies and gentlemen,
boom done.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Start again back to what. But comedy is like I've
said this, like, comedy chooses you.
Speaker 4 (18:04):
You do it once and you're like, I don't even
want to get and.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
Bore you with that, But your act evolves and when
you comedy is like the first time. It's like riding
a unicycle the first time. I would imagine never been
on one, but I would imagine when you're learning to
ride a unicycle, you just want to fucking get on it.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Okay, Once you can get on.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Out of everything, you can get one thing the universe
cycle is the stage.
Speaker 4 (18:27):
And first I just got to get on it. Either one.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I just got to get up on the thing, right.
You do that, all right? Once you do that all right,
now I have to stay on it.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
Once you learn how to stay on it, you get
more comfortable on it, and you can do more things,
and you can you can prowl the stage, you can
fucking juggle whatever you want. But the thing is it's
going to evolve. And once you're comfortable up there, then
you can focus on what you're doing on the goddamn
thing right, And you'll say anything when you're learning to
stay up there, anything to keep your balance, any joke, joke,
(19:00):
any whatever. But once you do all right, then you
start talking. And I've always like, and I realized this
in hindsight, I've always wanted to say the smartest thing
in the dumbest way, or maybe I'm saying the dumbest
thing in the smartest way. And I have aolve from
doing jokes about wah wah when I lived down near
Philly to you know, like I went to h When
(19:20):
I was in the late nineties, I backpacked through Europe,
I went through I went to I didn't even know
An Frank's house was in Germany. Excuse me, I thought
it was in Germany. I'm a dummy. It's in Amsterdam.
You go there and suddenly you realize that it's not
adjectives like like Germans killing Jews while other countries look on.
It's people letting kill people kill people, and so you're
about so you're like, I've got to make a light
(19:42):
of this, and some people don't like that.
Speaker 4 (19:44):
Some people are like, oh, I don't want to laugh
at what. I don't want to laugh at that.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Fuck you. Oh I want to laugh at what's cute.
Suck my dick staying there angel, fuck you. It's easy
to laugh at what's funny. And then you're act involved,
and then COVID hits and you suddenly realize, because you've
been around long, you're not smarter than people. You're like,
I've lived longer, and I've seen more things than I've
I've been sick and I and you start writing jokes
about that, and you start punching holes in that, and
(20:07):
you start getting people to laugh at the stuff that
fucking people want to scare you because laughter fucking heals you.
It relieves stress, it releases endorphins, it boosts your immunity.
And it's almost like in the past four years they
didn't want any of that. They wanted us to run
and hide indoors and go on YouTube and drinking fucking
zoom meetings and all that shit, And that's how your
(20:27):
act evolves. My act evolved to that. So you're just
saying dumb things for laughs, and then you're like, maybe
I can say smart things for laughs, and maybe people
will push back on that, and maybe that's not your people.
Speaker 2 (20:38):
Right because where it's too scared.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Even me, I we had this talk about like not
being too edgy or like not offending people because I've
done roves, I've done it all, and it's like, but
then I thought about what you said to me, Like,
if you really genuinely make somebody laugh on a concept
that's relatable, you can't go wrong.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Even if the clubs say you're not good enough if.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
You can this joke never works.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
And it's a serious bit, but the joke never works.
If you like, when you are laughing, it heals you.
Speaker 4 (21:04):
It does you feel it?
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Like and I said this earlier on our podcast and
it's the first time I said it, but I mean,
it's like, it's like the ship that heals you is
the laughter from the inside, not the stuff we see
on TV now where I'm like, well, I'm watching Jimmy Kimmel,
I'm in studio and it says applause, so whatever they say,
just no, Like when when I tell a joke and
people laugh like this because they're laughing from the inside,
but they don't want the fuck that that's the ship
(21:27):
that genuinely heals you. Every organ in your body is there,
is there from the moment you're born, okay, and whatever
created it heals it.
Speaker 4 (21:35):
It does no one.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
We we existed half a billion years somehow without doctor Faucher,
half a billion years. And now they're like, well, if
you're pregnant, make sure you get these nine vaccines.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
And is it right, please, her tongue is pregnant.
Speaker 3 (21:52):
My point is, speaking of pregnant. There you go, But
you get what I'm saying. I'm making the answer too long.
But but like, if you can use comedy to fucking
make people laugh and make him think, that's that's what
you evolved to, that's where you wind up.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
And I think I'm debating with everyone about that's the goal. Yeah,
it's about saying something that no one is, everyone's scared
to say, but making it fun.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Would you rather bend?
Speaker 4 (22:15):
Would you rather be us?
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Would you rather be Jimmy Kimmel who gets all this
money and literally at one point says because he's dancing,
don't you want to be both?
Speaker 4 (22:23):
No?
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Do you want to be the guy that says ready
for this? You want to be the guy that says, hey,
if if you're not vaccinated, uh, then and you have
a heart attack, then die in the emergency room and
eat your goo. Okay, And by the way, let me
tell you something. Jimmy Kimmel has a seven year old
son who needs surgery after surgery?
Speaker 4 (22:40):
Do you and I pray for that kid?
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I do?
Speaker 4 (22:41):
He did nothing wrong, But do you think when he
goes home.
Speaker 3 (22:44):
And sleeps on his piles and piles of money that
he got for lying for saying shit and acting holier
than that when he did Black, when he did Black.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
He's not last year. You know that.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
I know he was talking about retiring, but if you're
saying he's being replaced, but the bottom line is, oh,
because it's I always say this, it's the movie V
for Vandetta. And I'm sorry, baby, I'm talking too much.
She says a lot more intelligent, a lot more quickly.
But but it's like it's the V for Vandetta. You're
not of use to us anymore, Colbert, all of them.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
But it's like you're sitting here saying these lines.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
You used to have women on trampolines. You used to
do Carol Malone, who's a friend of yours, which is
why why a man show? Right?
Speaker 4 (23:30):
Yeah, but this is a guy that no, I.
Speaker 5 (23:31):
Know, I'm just saying, explain, you're just saying you used
to have women on trampolines.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
Oh, just I think anyone.
Speaker 5 (23:39):
It was to see their breasts bouncing up and down.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Yes, last did. I don't remember that exactly.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
But because you're young, the air Force, because he's a
he's a self made man. Him and Adam Carolla and
Adam Carolla speaks logically. Now, Adam Carolla has been going
after Gavitt. This is getting too politically.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
He's I wonder.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
It's so fascinating to me how he got on air
the way he got, Adam Corolla, you mean no, Jimmy
kim Jimmy Kilway.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
He su.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Board meeting and you're thinking, these execs are gonna be
like I can sell you.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
No, he has to be there has to be well.
Speaker 4 (24:13):
It was no, it wasn't.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
There wasn't well culture then it was funny and harmless
to watch hot chicks on trampoline.
Speaker 4 (24:18):
You weren't like, oh, what a dummy. She's like, look
at that hot chick. I want to see your bouncing.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
It wasn't like like an object.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Even though we thought that you didn't talk about it
out loud.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
You didn't care. He wasn't a big.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
No think.
Speaker 5 (24:33):
I just love Sarah Silverman. She went on Jimmy Kimmel's show.
I love her so much. She went on Jimmy Kimmel
show like maybe a few years ago, and she was
talking about how he's married now, and she said, and
you'll hate this gino, so just please don't fucking start screaming,
but she said, yeah, his wife's name I think is Molly.
(24:53):
She's like Molly got.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Thin, cool, woke Jimmy.
Speaker 5 (24:59):
I got like bad ass woman on Trampoline's Jimmy. I
thought that was cute.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
She's hilarious.
Speaker 5 (25:07):
I love her.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
But that's like another thing is like she's so famous.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Like just being a relevant comedian, especially as a woman
in general, it's like it's very hard, even if you
have the industry behind you. She had Jimmy Kimmel behind her,
she had all these people, and it's like, yeah, she's famous,
but like, is she as relevant?
Speaker 4 (25:24):
I think she's relevant, But I'm like, are we talking
about her.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
As much as you too were talking about others? I
think she doesn't.
Speaker 5 (25:30):
She's leaning. She does a great podcast too. It's not
for everyone because it's it's political or what have you.
But she is and she was also I think she
was nominated. She's been in films.
Speaker 4 (25:43):
She's by the way, she's.
Speaker 5 (25:46):
Also the real not the reason. But she's probably the
first time I saw stand up Jesus is Magic is
one of the funniest things to this day I've ever
seen in my life.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Would you say she was one of like who would
you say is your influence in comedy?
Speaker 5 (26:01):
I would say at first, on her, I think you
get up on stage and you sort of like do
an impression of your favorite stand up but.
Speaker 2 (26:10):
In your own words, I wouldn't say it was an impression.
Speaker 5 (26:12):
But she's definitely I've been on a show with her
or two actually, and uh, she's she's absolutely, absolutely hysterical.
I don't care how she feels politically. I'm not political
like you, Gene is.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
But funny, who's the funnier female comedian? Her or Adrian Applelucci?
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Unfortunately I don't really know who Adrian apple.
Speaker 1 (26:37):
Thank you for proving my they're different, And yeah, we
know Adrian because we're.
Speaker 3 (26:41):
In the Adrian apple Ucci is the funniest female comedian
arguably not named Jessica Kirson. Jessica, and I will tell
you something about Adrian Appolui. Do you think she doesn't
get that credit that Adrian because Adrian Appalucci and.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
Jessica he always used the full name.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Adrian Applelucci and Jane Appalucci. Jessica Kirson are both pairshed
older women. Okay, and don't get me wrong, Sarah Silverman
was young and hah and did and Sarah Silverman is
very funny. God forgive me if you think I'm not
saying that. God forgive me if you think I'm not
saying that. But Adrian Appolucci, she doesn't joke now about
(27:15):
trans Hilaria.
Speaker 4 (27:16):
She goes, why is everyone worried about trans people? Relax?
Speaker 3 (27:19):
It's three percent of America and they're all in third grade.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
And I'm not even telling it right.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Brilliant her success meaning people do know her.
Speaker 3 (27:29):
You don't think, I think, but but this is a
litmus test to go back to Osha. A lot of
people like, if you just said, who's Adrian Evoluci, please
look her up. She's fucking hysterical but dark.
Speaker 1 (27:41):
She had a team with money like Jimmy Kimmel did,
she would be Adrian Appleluchi.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
Where everybody were the worldwide would know her. Or the talent.
Speaker 3 (27:50):
Why you're sitting in this small apartment, that's my point,
You're right.
Speaker 1 (27:53):
Comics come to me all the time, an Athey, it's
get money for a really good PR marketing team, and
you will make it. Your talent who show even if
you're competing with the best of the best, it will
be made. But some of these comics will complain that
they're doing the stage every night and they're not mainstream.
Why because no one's gonna take you up and just
put you out there.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
That's not what Hollywood is about it.
Speaker 5 (28:15):
It's not like Colleen, you know what kid. I just
saw this kid over in uh you know, at the
at the Three Star Lounge. I saw him do his
act at one o'clock in the morning, and I'm gonna
make him a star.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
Like I don't think that's happening. No, of course not.
Speaker 5 (28:31):
You know what, I fucking anybody that says I'm on
the grind kill me, all right, I'm grinding. I'm grinding,
you know, like I'm just grinding.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Shut up.
Speaker 1 (28:43):
But why do you guys think like some of these
really funny comedians will play the clubs every night and
they don't get to Hollywood, Like what is that?
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Where is the is it?
Speaker 5 (28:52):
What I'm saying, because they don't have to Well, look
at Dava tel If you're so funny funny comedians maybe
of all time?
Speaker 3 (29:02):
Maybe no money? Yes, why are you funny comedians? Why
the funniest comedian alive?
Speaker 1 (29:10):
He just had a Netflix special? But why do you
think it wasn't even that great. But why is he
not in movies? Why are agents not taking him in selling?
Speaker 5 (29:17):
I almost think he's so funny, wants to be I
think he just loves doing Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
He answered it like there's certain people who want certain
things like me. I don't know if I feel comfortable. Yes,
I would love just doing the stage, but I would
want probably more, Yeah for my part exactly, I want
more people to see it.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
Yeah, I want more. I'm not lying.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
He's smoking a cigar on the city is hilarious. People
don't even do rated ar things.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
This is like PG. Thirteen anyway, all right, but yeah,
that's a good point.
Speaker 1 (29:47):
Like some people just like the stage and selling theaters
and they're cool with that.
Speaker 2 (29:50):
They don't need to be famous. And then I think
that those.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Opportunities come along, right, like like Pete Davidson does it
with his crew. Oh yeah, like Ricky Julio Gallaradi, like
they've been doing comedy for a very long time, but
they also get opportunities now that their friend has made it,
where now people are.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Seeing them like, hey, you want to do a movie
or you want to do this.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
It's I don't think they were you know what kills me.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
Whenever someone says, god, I miss Already Lang, and I
always say, you miss already Lang, you miss it. I
did his podcast, I was his second chair. I toured
with him. He's like, hey, I'm doing Nochie won't open
for me in La, Yeah, all those things.
Speaker 2 (30:25):
It's like, yeah, I miss Already Lang.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
He's still alive, right, but he's out of comedy. How
is that possible? Because he can't trust himself like a legend.
He's a legend, but he doesn't trust himself around fucking
whenever he goes. When I used to open for when
anyone use him before him? I know from person.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
How are you pushing Artie Lange out of comedy that.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
He pushed himself out because he couldn't resist heroin and stuff?
Sorry baby thinking.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
Okay, so it's the addiction you're saying that could ruin you, which,
by the way, I always.
Speaker 4 (30:52):
The fucking people with addiction. I'll tell you something, say
something about these fucking losers.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Which is an alcoholis what I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (31:00):
Oh, I get in the Whiskeys three. It seems breakfast.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
And that's my point, is like comedy for addicts in general.
If people are extremeists, especially like someone.
Speaker 3 (31:11):
Like addicted personality personalities.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
Comedy is great for you because it puts you in
this like focus mode, and that is the addiction is
like getting the high off stage, getting the laughs, even
if you make people left or you don't, it's that high,
that challenge of like trying to true what can I
do next time?
Speaker 2 (31:25):
For me at least through it could be.
Speaker 5 (31:29):
Like or if you get addicted to the laft or
if you're like already you're hilarious and then you know
your fans who love you so much are handing you
bags of you know, right and then yeah, right right?
I mean, am I wrong?
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Gene? No examples like that, No.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Look at me, like like I would take all my
fans across the street after compound to fucking Sullivan's, you know,
and they're all fucking like you just get addicted to.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
That, right, You can get addicted either way. It's like
being the funniest and then like trying to escape, or
like being not the funniest and just diving into that
craft and not doing.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Any other addiction.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Chanel, I have a question for you. Do you have
a have you ever like like a great story where
someone was so offended by a joke or something bombed,
like I.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
Love that, Adaly. Yeah, I mean every set I do.
It's like talking about the fact that I'm Jewish is offensive.
Talking about the fact.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
That I'm Israeli in Colombian's events, I feel like that
should not be off I know, but I'm a little
of an edgier comic, Like I definitely say what's on
my mind. I think I say things that people do
agree with and understand, but They're like, oh, I can't
believe this came out of this white girl's mouth, even
though I'm not that white.
Speaker 3 (32:43):
You know, so certain things I've never thought of myself
as white as Italian, right, Like I don't think Jews,
Greeks and Italians are white, no disrespect, I don't. And
that that's what back to you. I'm interrupting, But doesn't
that shape a lot of what you say?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
You're like what I have, I.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
Like, there's no racism. Like I'll say one more thing.
I never I do a show here in my apartment,
in our apartment, watch us in our home and July
apologize and you know, only blacks or juice it like
you're here, Larry Beya, brilliant black like I let all
these people in.
Speaker 4 (33:14):
But yeah, but the stuff you say on stage.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Stop it but are jokes. These are things that people,
and I get it. There's a whole culture, like, can
we stop this for a second so I can use
the bathroom quick and come back to it, or no,
it doesn't work like that.
Speaker 3 (33:26):
Let me.
Speaker 5 (33:26):
I don't think you can pause it, but we can
edit it out just this part, this part, Yeah, that's fine,
I can cut it down in no worry.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
It's the only door that's not.
Speaker 2 (33:37):
Like, poor thing, it's the whole time. Actually, no, we'll
check the timestamp.
Speaker 5 (33:44):

And I'm going to ask you guys what your story is.
Speaker 2 (36:07):
But I see you.
Speaker 1 (36:07):
Guys in action and like the crowd responds to you,
and I'm not comparing. I'm just saying there are times
I say things that I'm like, was that really out
of pocket?
Speaker 2 (36:16):
Like it wasn't that out of pocket?
Speaker 1 (36:17):
And they're not laughing, They're like, oh, so, I guess
I don't know if there's an answer to that, like,
how do you change that? If people don't like you?
How do you change what your art form? Because I'm
not going to change who I am?
Speaker 4 (36:29):
You don't, you don't be that's the problem.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
Like, I'm forty years old, I'm not either you like
me the way this I am or you don't.
Speaker 3 (36:35):
But wouldn't you argue?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
And then I like, I'm talking about being Israelian Jewish.
That's offensive. But no, I don't know how to tell
people that it's not effensive.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
You can the second you back down from it, Okay,

Either had your girls on trampoline.
Speaker 3 (36:59):
But the second get you back down, the second people
know that you can be bought that you will cow
tell right, then that's not necessarily a bad thing. That's
the path you too.
Speaker 2 (37:07):
You're selling a false narrative by saying someone's genuine.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
You're selling though.
Speaker 2 (37:13):
Someone is genuine and you're not. You're buying into a
false reality.
Speaker 3 (37:16):
I always say this if you don't go within, you
go without. Well, I didn't invent it, but it's a
great phrase that I and I say, like it applies
to a lot of things. But as a comic, as
an artist of any kind, either go with in or
you go without. Simply put, you either create from within
and say this is what I want to say, this
is how I'll say it, this is how we'll come
out of my mouth, and then I create from within
and he goes out there and whoever hears it then
(37:38):
and maybe this isn't the best way, or maybe it is,
but it works for a lot of people. Look at
Shane Gillis. Shane Gellis got fucking canceled and then he
you know, wow, and he came back, came back strong,
you know, and there's a lot of others.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Would that happen for a woman or you don't believe
in that?
Speaker 3 (37:51):
I'm sure, I'm sure what happened for a woman? I
can't think of one, but I will if I if
there is one. That I'm dumb, but I'm saying, if
you create from within, that's but you can also go
without and say, all right, what is the industry like?
Speaker 4 (38:03):
And people do this like and that that's Jimmy Kimmel.
Speaker 3 (38:06):
Now, all right, so this is what they want me
to say, this is who they hate.
Speaker 4 (38:10):
So I will fucking take this. I'll digest that.
Speaker 3 (38:12):
I'll give it to my fucking staff. They will write
stuff and I will regurgitate.
Speaker 4 (38:16):
Ridiculous jim I will.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
Has he ever been a stand up though?
Speaker 2 (38:21):
Yeah, he was before he had the show.
Speaker 3 (38:23):
Jimmy Kimmel was with them. I'll even go before Jimmy
Kimmel used to be like on remote control.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Yeah, yeah, he was like the side.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
He was doing clubs, all like hustling.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Yeah, he was the one that did Adam Carolla did nothing.
I don't mean that in a bad way. Adam Carroll
is brilliant. But Adam Carols the one that said, like,
Jimmy kim Is, like we're doing this. He dragged himberhe
It was like I used to always say I'm Adam Carolla,
although I'm not, and Kimmel was Aaron berg Berg was
like we're doing that. I'm like, you got it, just
tell me where whatever. But you suddenly now you're Jimmy
Kimmel and you're saying this stuff and you're making a
(38:54):
shit ton of money, but you're just you're a puppet.
You're saying what you're told, and that's fine, but it's
like you wind up saying things.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
That that should as a human.
Speaker 3 (39:04):
When he said, when you had those fires in California
and you have these dumbity it's everyone on either side
with announce of common sense agreed.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
And you saw this.
Speaker 3 (39:14):
This woman who got was a DEI higher and she's like, well,
if I can't lift up your husband to say that
he's in the wrong place, and that's stupid and terrible.
Not even attack her, because it's not her fault that
she's retarded, she's been encouraged to be midiot. It's not
her fault. It's not her fault. But when Jimmy Kimmel's like, yeah,
it's not her fault, but I've got to try and
make sense of it and make and she's like, and
(39:34):
the way dahmerd Trump said it, like you don't want
fireman saving you because they're not white enough, which is
a lie, and then says, and I want to thank
the fireman. And I'll say this again, they'll never do that.
My uncle Frank was a fireman, My good Frankie, like
a fire no fireman has ever said, oh my god.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
Here's your baby.
Speaker 3 (39:52):
Uh ah ah, say thank you. No fireman wants to
be thanked. And I said this to my brother and
he's so good. He does my show every we do
bonus loads. And my brother really knows this shit. But
he said, when we were watching, remember when that stupid
Crowley the DEI fucking fire chief. And she's like whenever,
she keeps saying and I want to point out that
these firemen are doing a great job and we cannot
(40:14):
thank them enough. And I'm like, why would you say that?
And my brother goes she wants the interview to in.
You understand, like everyone knows firemen do a great job.
Everyone knows they don't want to be thanked. So anyone
that ever said thank the fireman, they're cunt fuck.
Speaker 4 (40:26):
Pieces of shit? Can I say that they are? They are?
Speaker 2 (40:29):
They cancel me for that, and it was so full.
Speaker 3 (40:32):
Then you delete that to I'm so sorry. I gets
so worked up.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
But it is.
Speaker 3 (40:35):
It's an insult to the fireman. And they act like
they're shitting. Oh, there goes the cunt fuck alert. But
you know what I mean, Like they they insult everyone's
intelligence to being like, oh, Donald Trump's so bad, I
want to thank the fireman. The firemen are working their
answers off with no with no water or anything because
they were liberals, because because Gavin News was like, we
(40:57):
don't need the money, Well take the taxpayer money and
use it to fund an election by letting more.
Speaker 2 (41:03):
By the way, this is not a political podcast.
Speaker 1 (41:04):
Go on, I know, I get, but the simple Honestly,
you guys have the follow he has a lot of insight.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
Can I change this too? No, one, fireman, don't take
the job to be thanked. And if you're a comedian,
like I believe, I still am am. I allowed to
be fucking angered and insulted that this guy's making millions
upon millions to to say shit and not care because oh, look,
it's an applause sign, and every excuse me, there's an
applause sign by me, every really fucking paid puppet in
(41:32):
the audience will laugh at it.
Speaker 4 (41:33):
And it's a goddamn disgrace. So when I say a joke.
Speaker 3 (41:36):
Using a word about gay people, that begins with that
and say I don't have a problem with my brother
in law's gay, and I'm like, and I say this
because this is another thing about liberals, So like, oh
my god, if you're not if you don't vote for me,
you're not black and all this stuff.
Speaker 5 (41:49):
Now, yeah, do you want to hear my worst? Uh?
Speaker 2 (41:53):
Yeah, stage thank you, honey, he gets I want to
hear thank you you. I can't believe that.
Speaker 4 (42:01):
I don't even know what started.
Speaker 1 (42:04):
I can't even understand that she had a bad said
because I've seen her, so what would be your bad?
Speaker 4 (42:08):
So good?
Speaker 2 (42:09):
I love this story. It's a bad.
Speaker 3 (42:12):
I had one teaser, and I promise I will. She
told me this story afterwards and going to compliment you,
and I will get it. This is one of there
are three. I got two or three moments where I'm like,
oh my god, I'm gonna marry this girl.
Speaker 2 (42:26):
I just think about him.
Speaker 4 (42:27):
One of those moment is that fair?
Speaker 3 (42:29):
I just thought about I'm forgetting me.
Speaker 1 (42:31):
I just thought about you getting yelled by Kate Willard show.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
I can't I just give your friends.
Speaker 5 (42:40):
I came to mind, God, when I'm uncomfortable, I don't
think I should go anymore.
Speaker 4 (42:46):
And they apologize and they said it.
Speaker 3 (42:48):
They're like apologize no, but also okay.
Speaker 2 (42:50):
Well, it's another example. Who is a really funny comedian.
Speaker 1 (42:52):
She's great, she hustles, and she's also done TV and
it's hard for her to like it's not an easy crackle.
Speaker 3 (43:00):
Netflix for eight minutes, and she thought she had some
kind of my story.
Speaker 2 (43:03):
Okay, yeah, your story anyway?
Speaker 5 (43:06):
Anyway, thank you, So, Chanel, I was at this is
probably and I've learned from this. I have a joke.
I'm not political done like my husband over there.
Speaker 1 (43:17):
Yeah, what would you say your set? If you can
just tell our audience, what is your set?
Speaker 5 (43:20):
Like, It's it's stories of my misspent youth. It's it's irreverent,
it's uh, I talk about my life a lot.
Speaker 1 (43:29):
Right For those of you who don't know, Keanu's also
really old soul, but she's really young. She's very emotionally mature,
which I don't know.
Speaker 2 (43:35):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (43:36):
I'm thirty two, which is the best exactly.
Speaker 1 (43:40):
But I met you when you were like twenty seven
twenty eight, and you were still mature.
Speaker 5 (43:44):
Well that that's why I married this elderly man. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (43:48):
Yeah, for a really long time though, like maybe almost
over five years.
Speaker 5 (43:53):
Oh yeah, we were definitely banging for for a long time.
Oh gosh, what.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
I was not banging both of them just fy there. Yeah,
not for lack so I so I'm not political.
Speaker 5 (44:05):
I have one joke I think that maybe is a
little touchy in the political sense. It touches on abortion,
which I'm sorry if it's too much, but I uh yeah,
I'm I'm no one's pro abortion, but I'm pro choice,
Okay that, But the joke is more about gender reveal parties, okay,
and how the ridiculousness of a gender reveal party, and yeah,
(44:28):
it touches on abortion. Depending on the area, the joke
normally does. Well, if I'm in some bump fuck Ohio,
I know not to tell this joke because they're gonna groan.
But I was at a I was doing a giga
country club in I think in Pennsylvania, Okay, I was
doing a giga country club. And the joke is basically,
(44:51):
you know, if we're making up reasons to, you know,
throw parties, like a gender reveal party, you gather your
friends and family around pink balloons. Yeah it's the girl,
we all come right.
Speaker 2 (45:02):
Blah blah blah.
Speaker 5 (45:03):
And then I just say, like, if we're making up
reasons to throw parties, I feel like we should have
something that I like to call decision reveal parties. It's
the same concept, except you invite your family and friends
over and you reveal whether you're having an abortion or not.
Speaker 3 (45:18):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (45:18):
Typically, yes, I see you went wow because.
Speaker 5 (45:22):
That's funny, it's brilliant.
Speaker 2 (45:24):
But it can get depending on the crowd.
Speaker 5 (45:27):
People are like, oh no, But basically I lean into
it and I go, it's just gonna get worse, so
buckle in. So but people that come out to a
comedy show, if you want to be offended by something,
then you're at the wrong place. Well, the question on
that go somewhere else?
Speaker 2 (45:42):
Do you stay in that?
Speaker 1 (45:43):
So you said depending on the crowd, right, Because I
have jokes like that too, where it will go really
well at a real club, Like I'm talking about a
house show.
Speaker 2 (45:50):
Yeah, and that's a different we can get into. That's
just too many details.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
Like I think psychologically, the house shows are like set
up for you to like win sure, So you can't
really tell at that it's a home game, like it's
a home run because they're setting you up already as
a comedian that opened up for so and so on
that they're gonna laugh. My point is, though, if it's
different crowds, I might not laugh. Do you still stick
with that joke?
Speaker 5 (46:08):
Oh yeah, I lean do it. But I had to
learn from this one. I was in the country club.
There was no leaving because they put you up in
the country club. They like, I'm staying in the I
was the only chick. I was staying, like the bridal
sweet and the whole crowd is there. I did twenty minutes.
I'm like, it was great. I'm having so much fun.
I tell the gender reveal party joke, it's going well.
(46:29):
And then there's a part in the gender reveal party
joke where I compare, you know, how you cut into
the cake. It's either pink or blue on the inside, right,
And then I say, you know, well, at the decision
reveal party, it's like this, we're having the baby birthday cake.
We're having an abortion red velvet that normally gets some groans,
(46:51):
but people were still laughing, still laughing. And then I say,
still just gonna get worse. And if it's angel food cake,
she missed Carrie, everybody go home. People were laughing.
Speaker 2 (47:03):
It's a real thing.
Speaker 5 (47:04):
Ye people were laughing, but one woman, and this is
a well lit room. It was not like I could
see every single person. People were laughing and laughing. One
lunatic woman, the town weirdo, stands up, raises her hand
in the.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Front row, in front front row, in my face, that's shitty.
Speaker 5 (47:31):
And I this was like kind of I mean quite
a few years ago where I didn't even know what
to say or how to react. You could hear a
fucking pin drop at that point. It was like a
fucking funeral procession. I went, I couldn't dig myself out
of it. I just was like, I think the only
thing I could come up with to say was I'm
so sorry. Have you had a miscarriage? That was okay,
(47:57):
So now now I'm really bombing. He walks out and
then I didn't even know it's at the end of
my set. I don't even continue the joke on I
get off stage.
Speaker 2 (48:06):
Everybody is.
Speaker 5 (48:09):
It was so shitty because it had gone so well before.
So I walk directly make a beeline for the bar.
There's a man sitting there with a glass of whiskey
like this yeah, and I was like, halways have a
white claw, he said, And he looks at me and
he goes, that was my wife. And I went, oh
my god, I'm so so sorry. He said, no, you
(48:29):
were pouring your heart out up there, and she just
had to fucking ruin it.
Speaker 1 (48:35):
That's why that happened, similar to me, where like this
guy thought I was funny, and then the girlfriend was like,
I felt that that was very offensive. And by the way,
your jeans are really offensive, like you can see a cameltoe.
And I was like, this bitch is just jealous. I'm like, gosh,
so I go to her. I'm like, you're so pretty
and you have everything going for you. You're really jealous
of me putting myself out there bombing like that's sad. Yeah,
to get your boyfriend's attention, like there's something else going on.
(48:57):
And that's where I feel like, how do you guys
cope with the hate? Like you know, it's one year
out the other.
Speaker 4 (49:02):
I I lean into it sometimes.
Speaker 2 (49:05):
No, but how do you go home like being like
they're not right.
Speaker 3 (49:07):
I don't want a middle ground and by the way,
circling back, and then I'll answer that.
Speaker 5 (49:13):
Actually, wait, that woman, that woman came up to me
after the show first of all, and then that man
like took like three cigarettes from me and like wouldn't
leave me alone even during the rest of the show,
and then she came up to me and she said,
you don't tell those kinds of jokes in this town.
Because she and I said, what, I can't tell that
(49:34):
joke in Scranton. She's like, no one thinks it's funny.
I was, like, your husband thought it was pretty fucking funny, bitch, Like.
Speaker 1 (49:42):
People always use that no one to like, that's like
a mom mentality, Like no one thinks to say that
all the time. Like going back also to your thing
where you're like, I struggled, I was sleeping on couches
to be a comic.
Speaker 2 (49:54):
My ax, you should be like, no one thinks you're funny,
and you haven't.
Speaker 1 (49:58):
Everyone thinks that you haven'ttruggled and slept on couches, so
you can't be funny. I'm like not every comment doesn't
and I have been. I struggled.
Speaker 2 (50:05):
You just don't know about it. People who don't know
about it.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
I just don't talk about it as much as low,
which maybe I should about my struggles to so people
can really know that I'm a real comedian. Give me
a fucking break. Any humor was not sleeping on couches.
Nicki Glazer was not like I can name. Mark Mormon
wasn't sleeping on couches.
Speaker 2 (50:22):
Sam Moro was not. Yes, there's a beauty to that,
but I'm saying you don't have to do that to
make real comedian.
Speaker 1 (50:27):
There's just these phrases that people will throw at you
to make you feel like you're not like this woman.
Speaker 2 (50:33):
Everybody.
Speaker 5 (50:34):
Yeah right, thank you for speaking for the entire country class,
but you made everybody uncomfortable. I didn't as far as
until you raised your hand. You've dumb, bitch. But you
have to have time.
Speaker 2 (50:45):
That's the thing.
Speaker 1 (50:45):
You have to have a very strong self, strong self
sense of self to say I'm still going to continue
these jokes and I'm still going to be a comedian
because a lot of comedians get run out because of that.
Speaker 3 (50:54):
Right, But.
Speaker 1 (50:56):
What makes you think somebody stands the test of time
and then people quit?
Speaker 4 (51:00):
Like why do you have an act that doesn't fold?
Speaker 3 (51:03):
Already said this to me once and he said, like, Jeane,
you have an act that doesn't fold. He's like you,
I'm a straight white male over fifty. You know how
I get jokes, how I get work. I have to
be funny. That's how I get work. It's a good
problem to have. I need to be funny.
Speaker 4 (51:20):
To get work.
Speaker 1 (51:21):
You used to tell me, like, why are you so
scared of like being funny, Like just do the fucking work,
like even if you don't get passed, like you gotta
be fun paper And that helped me. Yeah, yeah, that
really helped me. I'm like, you know what, He's right,
Like I should want to like write every day. I
should want to make it funny. I should want to
play a bar show even though I'm not passing anyone
that lets you.
Speaker 3 (51:37):
Yeah, because you're getting paid. And even people you know,
doing the clubs every night, they're getting you know, they're
getting paid. Yeah, and actually it's not badding some clubs anymore.
But it's not it's not going to fucking you know,
sustain you. You have to get the other stuff going,
you know. So you want to get on stage in
New York anywhere you can, anytime you can.
Speaker 2 (51:53):
To be funny, right, so you're prepared for that.
Speaker 3 (51:56):
I always tell this story and uh, and by the way,
the other finger saying it is like you don't if people.
Speaker 4 (52:01):
Hate you don't want to middle ground, do you? There's
no way.
Speaker 3 (52:04):
If you if if watch us, if what's the line
if you're the smartest person in the room. You're in
the wrong room, you know what I mean. Like you
don't want everyone to like you. I mean no, no,
everyone is not gonna like you. And like you don't
want to middle ground. I want people to be passionate
about what I say, correct one way or the other.
Correct and the people If anyone ever said I'm on
(52:28):
the fence with Gino, do you think I'm on the
vence with Chanel? Would you be like, let me go
win them over? Fuck you pick a side.
Speaker 2 (52:35):
Well, that's the problem. My sister says to me. You
really don't care people think.
Speaker 1 (52:38):
And I think that's why you don't have a lot
of people who your friends were like you. But I'm
not in this business to have that. No, because this
business is all solo. I'm lucky to have the two
of you.
Speaker 2 (52:47):
I'm lucky. This is a rare.
Speaker 5 (52:48):
We're lucky to have you.
Speaker 2 (52:50):
We're very lucky. But that's not the norm of the industry.
Speaker 5 (52:54):
No, it's true.
Speaker 4 (52:55):
No, it's about fucking what what can you give me?
What can I get?
Speaker 3 (52:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (52:59):
And and what's my value?
Speaker 3 (53:01):
And don't get me wrong, God bless them, that's what
they want you whatever you genuinely want and if that's
what they want, great. We talked about this on my
show on my show today.
Speaker 2 (53:12):
Yes, check out.
Speaker 1 (53:13):
By the way, I've been on his show, Patreoch.

the way, let them know.
Speaker 3 (53:20):
Well, I'll put it right in.

there you go.
Speaker 3 (53:24):

Speaker 2 (53:31):
Support Black Lives Matter. People don't support you do.
Speaker 4 (53:36):
I don't care if you're gay or normal. I don't
care if you're black or you. I don't care if
you're vaccinated or you can think we're.
Speaker 3 (53:46):
Not We're not.
Speaker 4 (53:50):
I'm kidding.
Speaker 2 (53:51):
It's a joke, an editing nightmare.
Speaker 1 (53:54):
By the way, you could see all of us perform
are out of controlled jokes at Rodney's twenty.
Speaker 2 (54:00):
At what time.
Speaker 3 (54:02):
I believe it's a pm ABM.
Speaker 1 (54:04):
And you know what I love about Keanu and Gino
is that you're very like You remind me of the
Adam Sandler crew, where like you'll bring everyone.
Speaker 2 (54:09):
You come up with.
Speaker 4 (54:10):
Yeah we take care of our own.
Speaker 2 (54:12):
Yeah, you take care of your own.
Speaker 4 (54:13):
And it's amazing how some people forget that, and you're like,
all right, what meant to be?
Speaker 2 (54:16):
They do?
Speaker 3 (54:17):
They do?
Speaker 1 (54:17):
Forget that you'll make it big and then you'll like
hire all of us. And I was like, why wasn't
I nice to Geno? And You're like, you're dumb fox
because you weren't nice to me.
Speaker 3 (54:24):
All this time.
Speaker 4 (54:26):
My mother I say this all the time.
Speaker 3 (54:27):
She gets to like I grew up on a farm
in South Jersey and my dad was a farmer, but
he also did electrical work.
Speaker 4 (54:33):
And my uncle Frank lived.
Speaker 3 (54:35):
Across Oh you come from common folks, I do from
plaino folks. I mightna go Frank with a plumber and
he lived across the street. Because my mother and her sister,
my an Olga, they were sisters, they lived across the
street from each other. I make every stir too long,
But bottom line is I'd say, hey, Mom, why did
Dad get up in the middle of the night and
go fix that woman's you know, electrical little circuit? And
why did Uncle Frank get up at three in the
(54:55):
morning and all getting go fix that woman's hot.
Speaker 4 (54:57):
Water heater and get nothing for it? Because he's a jerk, you.
Speaker 2 (55:01):
Know, because he really went down on them.
Speaker 5 (55:03):
Yeah, I know he fixed an electrical circuit of a navy.
Speaker 4 (55:07):
Fixed on black box.
Speaker 3 (55:08):
But I'm saying no, and we I think I didn't.
Speaker 2 (55:14):
Even Jews are like that too.
Speaker 3 (55:15):
We have a but were It's it's about the people
you were, how you were raised. And I just do
things for people that are good at what they do,
and I expect they'll treat me the same, and usually
they do. They do, they do?
Speaker 2 (55:26):
You have confidence.
Speaker 1 (55:27):
One thing I want to go to is that these
two are newlyweds, and let me tell you to talk
about dating a little bit, because we do talk about
like my rant because like I don't agree with dating
or marrying someone in your industry because it hasn't worked
for me or others.
Speaker 2 (55:41):
But there are a few couples that it's worked for.
Speaker 3 (55:44):
Why don't you talk? Yah?
Speaker 1 (55:47):
Yeah, Bonnie and which was my favorite couple of favorite
humans like you two? But what do you think works
for you too? Because most of the time you really
can't ship were you especially in comedy, right, we would
have about each other anyway. It's something and also with
the comedy when.
Speaker 3 (56:02):
They met their podcast, talk to us about how because.
Speaker 5 (56:06):
We met because I would often be a guest on
the shows at Compound Media. And even though I mean
we were just hooking up a kind of behind some
shitty uh xes of ours backs for on and off
for five years, but I always knew, even when it
wasn't him, it was always going to be him because
(56:28):
we click. We disagree on so much in life, but
we genuinely enjoy each other.
Speaker 4 (56:37):
Penis is too like it's too big.
Speaker 1 (56:40):
It's always the big dig energy that keeps you around,
Like me and my ex. I still talk about him
two years later, and he's like, I don't know you.
I fu twenty eight year ols. But anyway, uh I.
Speaker 5 (56:50):
Put this in our vows Chanel, I said, the first
time I met, you know, he was drunk at ten am,
surrounded by fans at Compound Media, and I walked in
and he said, they will let anyone in here.
Speaker 2 (57:05):
Hey hatyry said.
Speaker 5 (57:14):
They will let anyone in here, Hey hoty I was hooked.
Speaker 1 (57:19):
But what made you take it to the next level
of five years on and off? Usually a person doesn't
commit when that happens, Like what made you guys finally
say we're committed?
Speaker 2 (57:28):
We don't give a show what the innergy.
Speaker 3 (57:29):
Says funny and she's genuine and the story I didn't
I didn't get to it, and it's perfectly put. Now
that show she did where someone goes, she's you're shitty.
We're like that ship that's shitty.
Speaker 4 (57:42):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (57:42):
She goes like it was a correct me. If I'm wrong,
I'm paying. She's like, it's her.
Speaker 4 (57:47):
First big weekend.
Speaker 3 (57:49):
Like remember, she's like, she's doing a Friday and a
Saturday at two different places. They're paying her good money,
they're putting her up, and she's nervous and like, I
don't mean and she's like, I'm like, and I just say.
Speaker 4 (57:58):
You're gonna be great, You're gonna be fun. So I
call her Friday after the first show how to Go?
Speaker 3 (58:03):
And she doesn't say, god him great. Well, she goes
like this, I don't want to get up stage.
Speaker 5 (58:07):
I did.
Speaker 3 (58:07):
That's a comic. She's like, I was doing so well
or something not I was funny. I don't want to
get That's all I need to know. So I know
she's good, right, like not that I didn't know. Second
night then I think I called her how it Go?
And she goes, you want to hear about the seventeen
minutes I killed or the three minutes where a woman
raised her hand and said my joke was shitty and
I didn't know how to get the hell out of it,
(58:28):
and I and that's a comic, guy, I go like this,
tell me the shitty part, because that's a comic. You
know I'm funny. I know you're funny. I don't have
to tell you all my funny stories. But don't you
want to know when I'm eating a dick on stage?
Speaker 1 (58:40):
But to not compare and not to bring it over
for like, not to talk about a few se because
my audience knows about this already.
Speaker 2 (58:46):
My ex would never say that.
Speaker 3 (58:48):
So maybe he didn't think you were funny and he
just thought you were hot. Take the compliment. I don't
think you both. I thought.
Speaker 2 (58:53):
I think he because he hid me.
Speaker 3 (58:54):
He's not going to be with you.
Speaker 2 (58:56):
No, you're a secret, they're gonna be with you.
Speaker 3 (59:00):
He with you.
Speaker 2 (59:00):
If you're a secret, you're gonna fuck your vagina and
not care anything.
Speaker 3 (59:04):
Hoty just doesn't think you're funny. No one's fucking up.
Speaker 2 (59:07):
I think I think he was I'm the wife. I
think he was probably jealous.
Speaker 5 (59:16):
He's in comedy too, right, Yeah, but he's not a comedian, right,
but he was probably jealous and intimidated.
Speaker 1 (59:22):
So why help younger girls? So why help others? Like
my question is if you guys were just fuck.
Speaker 5 (59:28):
You over, that's the only he's a bad dude, then
I guess, like you didn't get married.
Speaker 1 (59:34):
If you guys didn't get married, do you think you
would still support her? Knowing because she's funny.
Speaker 5 (59:39):
He always was even when I was with other guy
in other relationships, he would always want to cry because
you guys.
Speaker 3 (59:51):
When she was another guy and there was a buddy
of mine over a compound and I'd be like, I'd
be like I'd go see her when we'd have drinks,
and then she'd leave.
Speaker 4 (59:59):
Because I didn't want to get you know.
Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
And then the next day, like saying my buddy on there,
I'm like, hey, I was hanging out gunner. He's like,
I gotta go. Her and her boyfriend are doing great.
He's like, that's great. In't that great? Bobby?
Speaker 4 (01:00:09):
In that great?
Speaker 1 (01:00:10):
That's my things? Like did you feel Keanu even though
you know you're funny? And I know him funny? Like
meaning now from an egle point, I know what I
can bring to the table, so to argue with me
after you're sleeping with me.
Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
It's also like a low blow.
Speaker 1 (01:00:21):
But did you feel like you needed Geno to support
you and like put like voucher you or you were like,
I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (01:00:27):
Make this on my own whether or not my boyfriend.
Speaker 3 (01:00:30):
No.
Speaker 2 (01:00:32):
And is that a double standard because a lot of
people say.
Speaker 3 (01:00:34):
Oh, you funked him to get on stage.
Speaker 5 (01:00:37):
Actually I would venture to say i'd get on stage
more him.
Speaker 3 (01:00:42):
Yeah, I think I think she's doing well in spite
of me. Yeah, and I call the guy that screams
the word and hates juice.
Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
This is the funniest joke because like Keano me had
a talk offline. You know, she's a girl's girl and
she took me to a bar once because I was
really getting obsessed, and she goes, no, you don't have
to stoop down low to your ex and be a
better person. And you should know, Like it was so
funny because I'm like, shit, I should have talked to
you before I dated him. She's like, and you should
know that if you didn't date him, you'd probably get
more stage time. So go back to that point where
(01:01:13):
you would just go well, but that's hard to do
when you have gay keepers.
Speaker 2 (01:01:17):
And you know that more.
Speaker 1 (01:01:19):
If my ex wants a twenty eight year old to
succeed in the comedy clubs and he has power for that,
he's gonna make that girl succeed.
Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
It not me.
Speaker 1 (01:01:26):
And that's the power of like, my talent might not
be showcased because I gotta believe.
Speaker 5 (01:01:30):
In me, no bottom line comedy or not. No one
should ever hide you like you see that's that's no.
Speaker 1 (01:01:39):
But this is my audience wants to hear this because
a lot of my audience they become these secret side
chicks and they don't know what to do.
Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
So what would your advice be?
Speaker 5 (01:01:47):
I guess, like what advice is even though you may
feel like doesn't every girl all the time just feel
like worthless and nothing or whatever, But you're not number one.
You just have to pull yourself out of that and
also say, like, you know what, it's not worth It's
not worth my quality of life to fuck around with you.
(01:02:08):
You don't get to make me feel bad. I make
myself feel bad enough. I'll never tell youthing that but nails, nails, nails,
and you know what, shut up and fucking blow me,
how about that.
Speaker 1 (01:02:20):
But that's the thing that goes back to what you said,
how like high school comedies like high school without like
money Letterman said it now Geno said it, and you
said to me. Also maybe because he didn't think you
were funny. So it's a popularity contest because I could
be technically factually funny. But you're right if he did
not think I fit in with his posse, Like if
the stupid dumbass staff, with all due respect, who doesn't know, sorry,
(01:02:42):
the staff doesn't know. Staff doesn't know because the staff
is not on stage like us, so they don't know.
They can be seeing they're not really tuning in. They're
making drinks. It's a different ballgame. Also, go make your
drinks better. Anyway, we're gonna walk.
Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
Sorry, We're gonna.
Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
Like like go have a bartending class, like don't ask
for eighty round a year, and then like ship on
well known comics that really put their artwork in it
and then be like I don't think they're funny. It's
like that's why you got fired from the other club. Anyway,
We're gonna move on from that. Sorry, right, Yeah, we're
almost Yeah, we'renna wrap up soon. But my point is is,
like how do you get around that, whether you date.
Speaker 2 (01:03:16):
Someone, you don't date someone.
Speaker 1 (01:03:18):
Do you stick into a relationship that doesn't support you?
You shouldn't, Okay, you surround like relationships, do you say
it's not common or not bad.
Speaker 3 (01:03:30):
Dating like the people you surround yourself with or what
you get you are where you think about all day?
Like like you surround.
Speaker 4 (01:03:37):
Yourself with the people and you'll you'll you'll be in
that world.
Speaker 1 (01:03:40):
The different thing if you you, let's say everyone you
respect says you're not funny?
Speaker 2 (01:03:43):
Do you still think you can make it?
Speaker 1 (01:03:45):
If that's your what if that's your dream? Do you
think you can still make it? But if everyone say.
Speaker 3 (01:03:50):
But no one, no one, that everyone that I respect
not only tell me that I'm funny, tell me what
they tell me when I'm not funny. They tell me
what I'm fucking up. They tell me, you know, like this,
and like that's what you do? You like, I I've had.
Speaker 4 (01:04:05):
More reps than anyone.
Speaker 3 (01:04:06):
I'm in my fifties, so I'm used to fucking yes, man,
I've listened to fucking you know, like I don't fucking
you know. That's why when people lean into me like
in controls and something like you're no faceless nobody, So
I'll push.
Speaker 4 (01:04:20):
Back on you. I don't care.
Speaker 5 (01:04:21):
I'll answer your questions now because Gino has an unabashed
confidence about him, which is what is so attractive.
Speaker 4 (01:04:27):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (01:04:28):
Well, don't you think.
Speaker 2 (01:04:29):
Gino would tell me if I was really bad? He
would tell me he I.
Speaker 3 (01:04:32):
Wouldn't beg you to come to our apartment and do
this show that yeah and make that fla for three hours?
Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
But really, really, would you tell me on state like
you see me?
Speaker 1 (01:04:40):
Would you if you it was really really bad like
everyone says I am, would you.
Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
Say maybe you should?
Speaker 5 (01:04:45):
Chanel, you're not listening to the two people that are here.
They're your actual friends that are telling you how funny
you are. Never it's always the negative comments that come
into your brain, but you never you never hear the
ones that are you're obvious, not funny.
Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
The people that aren't silent, they never hear the people
that tell them they aren't funny, is what you're saying, right? Yes?
Speaker 2 (01:05:09):
Se, what's the secret to like tell the gatekeepers?
Speaker 1 (01:05:11):
I guess if people want to be in comedy, they
want to stick it out and they don't want to
give up, and they don't have friends like us.
Speaker 5 (01:05:16):
What would you say that if somebody is fucking If
you're rolling around the city and people are telling you
you aren't funny, you should take that as you are
fucking funny and people are fucking worried about it.
Speaker 3 (01:05:27):
People want to read up.
Speaker 5 (01:05:28):
Wow, it's true. They're fucking jealous. No, it's not funny,
that's stupid. No, you're fucking jealous of that joke, bitch.
Speaker 3 (01:05:36):
But that's now.
Speaker 1 (01:05:37):
Do you think the other comics that they do say
are funny and that are always on stage they're just
scared of them.
Speaker 5 (01:05:42):
No, they want to fucking suck their dicks.
Speaker 3 (01:05:44):
And it's also evolved into this because then this is
another thing. When I first got off here, I'm one
hundred and seven, and I'm like, you go right to
the Comedy Seller two thousand and one, two thousand and two,
and you're hanging out saying Somethingy're going to be at
the comic table with the unwoke Bill Burr, Nick Depollo,
Jim Norton.
Speaker 5 (01:06:05):
Uh, Gregy the way.
Speaker 3 (01:06:07):
And you want to hang out with them, and you
know what they're doing at that table, busting each.
Speaker 4 (01:06:12):
Other's balls because I know you're funny.
Speaker 3 (01:06:13):
So I'm gonna tell you how many times you're not
funny while busting your balls, and I know you're funny now,
Like Larry Baya Black Colored Fellas sat here yesterday, but
we were laughing because he was the guy when it
started to change. Larry's fucking funny. He's like he would
go to the cellar and rather than sit at the
comics table when we were both passed that brief time,
(01:06:36):
we'd sit at the bar. Because at that the kids
at the comic tables were these young, woke, getting woke
kids who wouldn't talk.
Speaker 4 (01:06:43):
Bust each other's balls.
Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
They'd be like, oh, I love the way that Bill
Burr and and and and Dave Chappelle, the craft that
went on, like I don't.
Speaker 4 (01:06:50):
Care, you don't care.
Speaker 5 (01:06:52):
There's nothing worse than like talking black people, nothing craft
of comedy with It's like, I don't want to talk
about the fucking craft. If you're my friend, then we
want to make fun of each other.
Speaker 1 (01:07:03):
That's where fucking even SD from comedy seller once told me,
and she's the one the woman you want impress.
Speaker 2 (01:07:11):
She's the booker there said.
Speaker 1 (01:07:12):
You know, even if you don't pass here, it doesn't
mean you're not funny, and that like hit home. She knew,
Like she's like, it's not about you, it's just my
way of booking, And it doesn't mean you can't make.
Speaker 2 (01:07:22):
A successful to say she doesn't have to say that.
Speaker 1 (01:07:26):
She doesn't talk to anyone, no, you know, thank god,
she's israelly, like is really sister from another but like
she was, and she's intimidating. But it's like I took
that and I was like, you know what, I'm going
to take that to the grave, like you know, and
I encourage everyone to still do it. Anyway, let's talk
about the secret tip for how to make a successful relationship.
Like you guys, like, what do you think the secret is?
Speaker 3 (01:07:49):
I believe. I believe Casey Musgraves send it best.
Speaker 4 (01:07:53):
Mind your own business.
Speaker 3 (01:07:54):
In life will be gravy the way.
Speaker 2 (01:07:59):
What do you your own business?
Speaker 5 (01:08:00):
I feel like I mind for you, mind your own business,
mindrown biscuits.
Speaker 3 (01:08:05):
But the line I was looking for is own your
own crazy. That's what I could own. So when you
fuck up, just own it. Yeah I didn't, I God forget,
I didn't mean like smoked your own smoke and and what.
Speaker 5 (01:08:18):
Is it mind your own biscuit in last year.
Speaker 3 (01:08:23):
Terribly last night. But the line I love is smoke
your own smoke and own your own crazy, like when
you fuck up, own it. You know it works without
a doubt.
Speaker 4 (01:08:32):
Like I'm not perfect.
Speaker 3 (01:08:33):
I know that's hard to believe, but I will never
change the way I am. It's like I'm like, I'll apologize,
but I'm gonna do it again. We're not gonna do
terrible things again. But it's like this is how I am.
I'm open, I'm loud, I fucking do what I want
to do, and it's usually right.
Speaker 4 (01:08:48):
When it's I'm like, my bad.
Speaker 5 (01:08:50):
I wouldn't even say it's usually right. But here's the secret.
Speaker 2 (01:08:53):
Yeah, what's the secret, Kiki.
Speaker 5 (01:08:55):
Enjoy spending time with that person, enjoy having sex with
that person. I know, look at him, right.
Speaker 3 (01:09:03):
I don't take it by and lucky gown.
Speaker 5 (01:09:06):
If you just if you have a smile on your
face and you can make each other laugh, and and
even if you bicker and argue because he wears a
headband and he refuses to stop, you know, leaving tissues
all around the house, just put the tissues.
Speaker 4 (01:09:24):
Every morning.
Speaker 5 (01:09:26):
I know, exactly. Just be obsessed with each other. And
even when you're not obsessed with each other, then put
her foot in your mouth.
Speaker 1 (01:09:33):
That's how you become though, Like that's the one, right,
It's like and you can work it out and like
you're annoying with each other, but you still want it.
Speaker 3 (01:09:39):
But it's a Mediterranean thing. It's like we fight like
I don't.
Speaker 4 (01:09:44):
If I don't like someone, I don't fight with them.
I go, what a piece of shit? And I walk away.
You don't I know.
Speaker 1 (01:09:49):
I used to argue with my exes, like people will
love each other really don't fight. I'm like, you're living
in Lalla landage.
Speaker 4 (01:09:56):
Each other. Don't fight with each other.
Speaker 2 (01:09:58):
Right, it's hard work, right, I get.
Speaker 3 (01:09:59):
That ship all time? Oh, Gino turned on this guy?
No no, I thought you were my friend.
Speaker 2 (01:10:03):
No no, there's nothing more.
Speaker 4 (01:10:04):
Friends were done fighting.
Speaker 3 (01:10:05):
I'm sorry, baby.
Speaker 5 (01:10:06):
There is nothing more toxic than silence. I mean, right, Italians,
Maybe we work it out or yeah, there's nothing, get out.
Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
Of here, all right, we're getting a divorce.
Speaker 5 (01:10:16):
Never mind.
