Speaker 1 (00:58):
Maybe they're maybe no, congrats find out at the reveal
that we're having a reveal party.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
We're gonna find out who the father is, so it
might be great.
Speaker 1 (01:07):
I carry on that Mari tradition there congress on the
new spinoff AGT Fantasy League. So is this sort of
fantasy football and the voice at the same time.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Basically, absolutely, so it is. That's exactly what it is.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
So it's like, we got to America shows their top
forty acts from all over the world, you know, the
winners of BGT and Japan's Got Talent and America's Got
Talent and really close runner ups and these all high
level professionals who have their own rooms in.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
Vegas and travel the world.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
And then we each and Melby is back in the
so it's me, mel B, Heidi and Simon, we Drew Straws,
and then we got to choose our teams, and then
we get to mentor our team as they come out
and perform, because ultimately the audience votes on them and
we get a golden buzzer or which can either move
(02:01):
one of our team players to the semi finals or
we could steal somebody else.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Oooh fun fun. And you've got the only stand up
on the show.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
Preacher Lawson. I love Preacher Lawson. I want stand up
to go all the way. I don't I think that
as stand up is underappreciated especially I agree our show,
because you know, somebody comes out and they like themselves
on fire and they hang from the ceiling, and then
another next somebody comes out and talks. But the truth
of the matter is that's really hard to do, and
they've kind of written it and performed it. So Preacher Lawson,
(02:37):
who I'm also going to be in Vegas with on
February third.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Fun let me ask you, since we're on this subject.
When you were starting off, it seemed like that's when
comics there was just no rules. It was fun. People
knew how to take a joke. It seems god, it
seemed like being a police officer in a comic are
the hardest things to do?
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Right now?
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Do you feel these young comics are now handcuffed and
it's going to change anytime soon?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
I think it is changing. I think the pendulum is
swinging back. And if you look at what's happening in
Austin and that group of people they're kind of There's
people like Shane Gillis and kill Tony as a podcast
and Joe Rogan. You know, if you go and work
in Austin, there seems to be a pendulum coming back.
(03:25):
There's a lot of people whose names that you may
not even know, that are selling out entire arenas. You know,
twenty thousand tickets and thirty thousand tickets where people are
going you know what.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
Enough already?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
You know it's comedy and it's an art form, right
and you need if there's no such thing as too
soon or too dark. That's what comedy is.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
You know.
Speaker 3 (03:46):
You have the freedom to not like it, respond to it,
or laugh to it, but you shouldn't be able to
cancel it.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yes and censored? I agree one hundred percent. Well that's
great to hear coming up next month. But deal or
no Deal Island. I thought it was a joke when
I heard. Seriously, it's like annlid the congratulations. Tell me
how this works?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Well, first of all, I'm not the host.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Somebody much better looking than me, not better looking than you,
but Joe Maganello you know us.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yes, Oh that's funny, that's ironic. Okay, is that coincidental?
By the way, People ask why didn't I host it?
And I say, because they shot it. You know, right
at the equator, it's like one hundred degrees and there's
snakes and right right right, and spider Sophia who I'm
a good friend of, said send Joe. So I did,
(04:43):
but it isn't strike me as the host type, with
all due respect, but we'll have to see.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
That's an amazing job because it's he's much more adventuresome
than me. So what it is is they're playing against
the banker, and this is the banker's island. They drop
two hundred million dollars in uh in.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Cases all over the island.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
Some they have to are submerged in the water somewhere
up in the trees, and they have to fight the
elements to get these like survivor to get these cases.
Speaker 2 (05:17):
Each night, who.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
Ever gets the lowest amount in their case it could
possibly is the one that plays Deal or No Deal kind.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Of as you remember it.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
For the amounts that have been gathered and can be eliminated,
Ultimately it'll come down to one player left on the
island who will play for the biggest amounts ever in
Deal or No Deal History fun.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
What island do you guys go to?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
It was off the coast of Panama.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
I don't even know what the island's called, but it
was a deserted island.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
Yeah, that's cool.
Speaker 3 (05:52):
The only there was nothing on the island that were survivable.
There was a broken up landing strip and a building.
I think it was Pablo Escobar's landing spot where he
refined cocaine.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
That was all that was there.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Oh wow, that could be a good time. How we
are showing off new hologram technology in Vegas this week?
You feel this is going to become more commonplace?
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Oh, I believe.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
I'm I'm an embracer of technology and whether that technology
is is holograms. AI, We're going to be at CEES.
This is the next level in number one, you know,
being able to travel someplace without going someplace. I'm gonna
be there by not going there, kind of like I
am here, but in three D and I can react
in real time. You could sell things, you can interact
(06:41):
with it, you can display and teach some buddy something.
You can buy products off of it. It is next level.
That's proto hologram. Look for that, follow it on Instagram.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
