Bathroom Knife Fights, Comedian Death Threats, and that time Jeff, Chris, and Dante Saved a Human Life

Prepare for a wild ride through comedy history, high school nostalgia, and near-death experiences—both personal and comedic as Jeff and Chris welcome Dante, a veteran comedian with a resume that includes Last Comic Standing, directing movies and commercials, and winning more BET Awards than any other comic. Dante shares incredible stories about sneaking into the Comedy Store as a teen, and giving Jamie Foxx his first shot at stand-up when he was still Eric Bishop. The conversation veers into the chaos of '80s and '90s comedy clubs, encounters with celebrities like Sam Kinison, Richard Pryor, and Gene Simmons, and the insane culture of Patrick Henry High School—complete with stabbings, riots, and breakdancing battles. The episode also takes a turn into heroic territory, as Jeff, Chris, and Dante share jaw-dropping "save the baby" stories that sound like they belong in action movies. Plus, they discuss the evolution of comedy, how the "woke" era has impacted stand-up, and why Jerry Seinfeld is out of touch with college crowds. All this, plus a deep dive into the absurdity of '80s movie tropes, including the questionable plots of Weird Science and Blame It on Rio. It’s an episode packed with nostalgia, laughs, and a few uncomfortable realizations about how Gen X survived their childhoods.
