surgeries as symbols of capitalist corruption. Reports from Daily Reports

from Daily n K say two women who received implants
and the doctors who performed the procedures have faced public trials.
Speaker 8 (04:05):
Oh yeah, I sure would like to squeeze those symbols
of capitalist corruption.
Speaker 7 (04:11):
How sexy, regime has long tried to control personal appearance,
previously targeting clothing, hairstyles, and even foreign slang. Analysts say
the latest campaign reflects ongoing attempts to suppress Western cultural influence.
The judge also condemned breast augmentation surgery as non socialist behavior.
Speaker 5 (04:33):
And stated he likes those communist heavy naturals.

became toxic influences, eroding our socialist system.

When you started, did someone like you're like an early
open mic days go hey, look man, could you change
your name.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
No one's going to get it right.
Speaker 2 (07:03):
I did. My first manager said I need to change
it to something more Jewish, kind of a reverse of
what they used to do back in the day. They said,
they said, they said, they said, I'm going to get
you a meeting at ABC and they're going to expect
John Marcos Aresi and in Walks Joe Marcus Aasi and
(07:24):
I was like, oh, okay, okay, but I couldn't do it.
You know, when you have a weird name, it becomes
part of your identity.
Speaker 5 (07:33):
You know, are your heritage is of the Jewish faith,
was your was your mother Jewish?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Mother's Jewish dad is Umpoco Italian.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
So they didn't consider doing the hyphenated thing like you know, Berkelewitch.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Saraise, Sarasi Stein, Saraesi Stein. I know because my mom's
original last name was roth Krug, which is a that's
a heavy German name. Yeah, so so razy.

Speaker 2 (08:15):
Thank you? I mean, man, I moved. I moved to Brooklyn.

over and over again. It's like Groundhog's Day, but like annually,
and I wake up every New Year and I go, Okay,
I'm going back to Rochester, New York. Here we go,
(08:35):
and uh, you know that's that's That's what I'm doing.
Speaker 3 (08:39):
I stand up every many auditions.
Speaker 8 (08:41):
You're you're an actor at heart, and you know, a
theater kid, as they say.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Yeah, yeah, I you know, I'm starting to get more.
I'm hesitant because being an actor was so degrading. You know,
before I did comedy and all I did was act.
You meet someone new, all they say, they go, oh,
have you been in anything I've seen? And it's like,
come on, you wouldn't ask that to a guynecologist. He's
(09:06):
such as it's such a degrading profession. I So I'm
dipping my toe back in. I did, I had, I had,
Actually I had a callback yesterday and we'll see I
see these new AI videos that I go. I don't
know how much time is left to get into this profession.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
No kidding, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
We were talking with Jim Gaffigan yesterday and he kind
of had the same thing, and I.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Saw him yesterday. He did my podcast yesterday.
Speaker 5 (09:33):
Yeah, he goes, I don't know how these actors do
it because there's so much. Even the best actors. Sometimes
you go, I don't have a gig. I got nothing
coming up. Yeah, so he was saying, at least with
Stan up, you've always got something to do. And by
the way, are you in a hotel different? Are you
in a hotel room?
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Yes, I'm in a hotel room.
Speaker 5 (09:49):
Because I was gonna say, if that's you, if that's
your place in Brooklyn.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Move you like my new wallpaper. No, my place at
Brooklyn has zero wallpaper and zero so we have not
done anything.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
This is heaven to me. Now are you so you're
not living alone?
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I got a girlfriend coming up on five years. Now,
how's that guy? It's good, it's good. I see her
about three hours a week and we make the most
of it. And uh, she's good. She's a she's a manager.
She's a comedy manager. And we we made the decision.
She's now my manager as well.
Speaker 5 (10:28):
And she's the one who want you to change your name.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
No, no, I mean you probably probably. She she grew
up even more Jewish, so she's she grew up acidic,
you know, with the.
Speaker 5 (10:43):
Hairdoer, and the and the the hat like a boy George.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Yes, yes, And they're always reading the Torah and and
every time I go up to them if I see
them in the Torah, I'm like, how have you not
finished that yet? This is the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (11:01):
And by the way, nice jewelry we're speaking with.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Thank you.
Speaker 5 (11:05):
This makes me so nervous, John, John Marco Saraisi.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
Would you like to hear him say it?
Speaker 8 (11:10):
Go ahead, say it slow for me, John Marco. Right,
RAZI there you go pretty crazy? Yeah, yeah, I know.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I can't do it.
Speaker 5 (11:19):
I try to put too much sort of sauce on it,
and it sounds well like everything, it sounds pretentious and affected.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
In Italy, Jamarco SERAISEI is is like Bob and Tom
over there. Truly, there's there's the Jamarco and Sarasi show
over in Sicily.
Speaker 5 (11:39):
Now let's talk about the new the new special. Where
does one find it?
Speaker 2 (11:44):
One finds it on on YouTube. It is there for free,
and you know it was I just wanted like to
be able to chop it up into pieces, put it
wherever I wanted. I just wanted to full control. Although
YouTube did flag a couple jokes that we had to
(12:05):
work out, no kidding, we had to Oh yeah, it was.
It was scary for for a second. You know, you
put all this money into this thing, all the editing,
and then you upload it and and they go, oh,
because you talk about h X y Z, there's gonna
be a suicide hotline underneath the entire thing. Oh that
(12:27):
was a big converence that the whole special would have
the hotline underneath. And they said it wouldn't affect the algorithm.
But I said, I don't know. I don't know if
I want anyone who looks up my special for you
to be like, hey, you want to watch Jamarco? Did
you know helps available? If that feels no concerning you,
don't talk.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
It's not that big of I don't even.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
It's not that big. But but you know these algorithms there,
it's a computer. A computer goes, hey, you said this word, Yeah,
we gotta add this whole thing.
Speaker 3 (12:58):
Now to find it?
Speaker 5 (13:00):
Do we have to know how to spell John Marco
Sarrasi or can we just.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Well that's why I made sure to do a title
that was more monosyllabic. Thief of Joy, Thief, Thief of Joy,
is all you have to put in.
Speaker 8 (13:11):
Now that's based on a tattoo that a friend of
yours or a fellow actor or somebody that has right.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
Yes, he's an active friend. He got a tattoo one
line in his arm that says comparison is the thief
of joy. And I'm really thinking about getting the same
tattoo but bigger.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
It is so brilliant. Now, do you have any tattoos? Why?
Speaker 2 (13:42):
Actually, I had a tattoo my first serious girlfriend. I
tried winning her back. I got a once we broke up.
Her name was Laura, and I got a tattoo of
a cursive L for Laura, and I thought it would
impress her. She didn't work. She married someone else, and
(14:03):
then every woman I dated after that I had to
tell him about my dead friend Larry, or or date women.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Whose name started with an L. That would have solved.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
Fortunately my current girlfriend it was the tea. I looked
for it, but we met during COVID. There weren't that
many options. Alphabetically, Have you had it removed? Uh, you'll
have to see the special to see what came of
the tattoo. Okay, all right, because what about you? You
got any tattoos.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
No, but going around the room, we have several. Yeah,
Pat and Chick both have them.
Speaker 3 (14:39):
I have a cover up of the name. And then chera,
do you have a you have a cover.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
Up of a name? Yeah?
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:45):
In Pat's case, it looks like a bad bat signal.
That's not a good cover up. I think it's time
to burn that baby off.
Speaker 7 (14:52):
Just make a bigger cover up.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (14:54):
Once again, we're speaking with a comedian, John Marco Soiresi.
He's got a great new special out there. It's called
Thief of Joy and you can find it on YouTube.
You don't have to even spell John Marcos rissi because
you spell it like G I A N M A
r CEO. It sounds like you're an F one driver,
don't you think?
Speaker 3 (15:13):
Sure?
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Sure, I'll take it. I can't. I can't even drive
to begin with, But I'll take it. You don't drive
it all the coolness you want to it? No, I don't.
I we we we talked about.
Speaker 3 (15:24):
The last time that you know, can you swim?
Speaker 2 (15:27):
I can swim? Okay, I I can't swim. Yeah, I'm
a pretty decent swimmer. Because you got to be able
to have one means of transportation, I can't.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
Try moving to Venice.
Speaker 5 (15:41):
By way of explaining, a lot of a lot of
guys that I knew that grew up in the city
in New York, they didn't There were no very few pools.
They couldn't swim, and they couldn't drive. So but yeah,
swimming handy. Do youre about the guy that just swam
around Manhattan with handcuffs on?
Speaker 2 (15:56):
No? Yes?
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Was he in trouble or for fun? For a world record? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (16:02):
And I'm not sure he didn't drown, and I guess
the bugs in the water didn't kill him.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
That really limits the kinds of strokes you can do. Yeah,
I mean dog paddle.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
Are you going? Are you gonna learn how to drive?
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I don't know. I listen. I'm very scared of technology
taking over. But I'll tell you one piece of technology
I did like was the self driving cars. That felt good.
Speaker 6 (16:28):
Nice.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
Does your girlfriend drive?
Speaker 2 (16:31):
No? We both have licenses, and the fact that we
do is an indictment of the licensed system in America because.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
We should not.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
We absolutely should not. And she was gonna learn, but
she said, if I learn and you don't, then I'm
going to be your chauffeur. So we're kind of at
a stalemate of not growing as people because we know
the other will exploit it.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
And that's love, baby, that is non I love John Marco.
Do I ever review cook?
Speaker 2 (17:04):
She's a tremendous cook. I think listen. I tried, I listen.
I can do an omelet. I can do an omelet,
all right. I can feed myself. And at the beginning
of twenty twenty, you know, I was like, Okay, I
have all this time, I'm going to learn how to cook.
If you didn't use that time to learn the skill
(17:26):
you always thought you were going to, you're never going
to And you just have to accept that as a
human being. I know for a fact now if I
had all the time in the world, I would do
nothing with it. Yeah that's you know, that changes something
in your perspective. But I'm trying to live with what
(17:48):
I am.
Speaker 5 (17:49):
I love hack premises, and one of my favorite hack
premises is when a guy comes out and he goes, yeah,
my mother was Italian, my father was Jewish, and then
they come out with like, you know, we had spaghetti
and Manza balls.
Speaker 3 (18:02):
I just love those.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
I love taking those and seeing if I can possibly
make them.
Speaker 3 (18:06):
Funny.
Speaker 5 (18:06):
Do you do you ever do any of those mixed
uh heritage things.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
It's no. I feel like when you put in like
chat Cheapt, when people go like Chatchapt can write comedy
and they put that in, that's the first thing it
pulls to. I'm trying to think if I've ever had
like in the beginning, It's like in the beginning is
when I would have had those jokes.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Well, I kind of thing.
Speaker 5 (18:29):
The other hack premise is always New York versus l A,
which is what made me think of it driving versus
not driving.
Speaker 3 (18:35):
What do you think of this one?
Speaker 8 (18:36):
Yeah, I'm I'm half Italian and half Jewish. I'm the
only Italian person who doesn't offer seconds. I like that, Okay,
I like that.
Speaker 5 (18:51):
Room had if he had all the time in the world,
he wouldn't last.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
We went into analyst mode.
Speaker 2 (18:57):
I think it's a very polite Yeah, exactly, it was
a scientist. I said. I could see that. I could
see some people laughing at that. They've never heard a
joke before. Were terrible. I'm trying to think. In the beginning,
I was like, my name's Jim marcos Arasi. I sound
like I used to say, I sound like if jk
(19:19):
Rowling hadn't invented an Italian wizard, or I said, JaMarcus Raisi.
But I'm I said, am mazza pizza. That's what you know.
Mazza pizza is what they call Italian Jews. But I said,
I'm not really that Italian, so I'm more like a
mazzo with a little bit of ragou something like that was.
Speaker 3 (19:37):
I don't care for it. I like them both. Oh
good good. I really like the first one.
Speaker 5 (19:44):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (19:46):
Jk Rowling, but that's a great joke. I love that
Marcos swand I have a bread stick. I go spicy.
I know you speak.
Speaker 3 (19:56):
Oh yeah, that's right, I like I said, I love
the hack.
Speaker 5 (19:59):
Premis stuff. I don't know why, just taking an old
idea and making it new. J Marko, what a great pleasure.
And it's Thief of Joy. The on you gotta do
is yes, type that in you'll end up with a
great special something to do this weekend. It's really wonderful, man.
