Canadian , one of those , and I was going to ask you who's your favorite comedian . Don't say Jim Carrey , no , why ?

Speaker 2

I'm just saying he's Canadian too . I'm just saying you know , what's so funny is like I lived in Harlem man . Oh my gosh , is he so respected by the black community ? Right , I love Jim Carrey . I could do , obviously , jim Carrey is great , but yeah , that guy is like a legend , even though he's in Sonic .

Speaker 1

Yeah , Right , I did my research . But you live in New York , because I ran into your buddy of all places in Walla Walla , ed McGowan , Shout out to him .

It was just , it was crazy , because I was paying for the tickets he was taking it , you know , I mean , you guys get paid the big bucks , you guys take your own tickets or sell your own tickets , right , I was like , oh , you got Michael Harrison's fan . He's like yeah , man , we're good buddies . And so I was like , wow , small world , dude , small world .

Speaker 2

I mean comedians . It's sort of like you know it's a brotherhood in a way , right .

Speaker 1

Right , right .

Speaker 2

I'm not a comedian ?

Speaker 1

I'm not a comedian , I just love comedy .

Speaker 2

That's great . Yeah , I'd say my favorite would probably be Norm MacDonald he's a beast as well as Doug Stanhope . Yeah , those are two that come off the top of my head for Fave Comics .

Speaker 1

Okay , well , that was going to be later , but hey , I'm glad we got that , I'm glad we broke the ice and said , hey , let's just get it going . Yeah .

Speaker 2

Oh no .

Speaker 1

I'm just that that's one of my questions like a curveball question towards like the end and everything .

Speaker 2

but no , it's good , that's good , oh yeah , right , really , I thought I'd already asked that . I thought you asked me what my favorite comic was .

Speaker 1

Yeah Well , I did , I did , but that's later on .

Speaker 2

Hilarious , we're already improvising , man Dude whatever , yeah , whatever is going to be your middle question , ask it now . Let's save your first question to the ending . How are you doing ? That'll be , we'll close on that . How's that ? There you go .

Speaker 1

There you go . Oh dude , this is going to be great man , this is going to be great man . I love this dude , but no , normally the first part , you know , I'll just let you know , the first part is just shooting from the hip , shits and giggles and dude , we already passed that . So hey , I'm glad I don't even know where we are Right .

Speaker 2

I'm on ayahuasca . Okay , I don't know what you're on . All right , the hell is going on . Someone's talking from my computer , right .

Speaker 1

I don't know if that's a compliment or you're just shitting all over me , man .

Speaker 2

No , no , no , no .

Speaker 1

All right , so I like you , you're a comedian . Yep , you're a podcaster , brilliant podcaster . Right Thank you and the podcast is character debaters , no Character debates , debates , debaters , debates . But you got a lot of brand .

Speaker 2

buddy , we got a brand .

Speaker 1

Okay , you do and you're taking it by storm , man .

Speaker 2

Yeah , we're really happy . I mean , I love what we do . Yeah , the whole premise is I make a comedian's debate and character . Yeah , it's all improvised . They don't know my questions ahead of time and they have to stay in the voice of whatever they ever . And they got to fight to the death , which I mean I feel is the only way to do podcasts .

Now , you know , it's like don't do it as yourself . Yeah , right , you can get canceled , you can screw up your livelihood . So I figured out a way to make comics come on and be someone else and now they could say whatever they want . We could get way more stuff covered . You know what I mean , because it's not them saying it , it's their character in quotes .

But it's like here , yeah , I can't . I can't tell you everything . Those people have feelings . You know to think about those . I hate that . So , yeah , my show we're characters . We could cover everything . We don't feel funny and super goofy . You know , very silly . We , I don't know , we've had so many , so many killer matches .

I mean you , how many have you listened to ?

Speaker 1

At least five . But the one this morning , dude , it was just like all right . The one this morning , I was like I need to pump myself up , man , because I've just been like not down in the dumps , I've just been busy , busy , busy . I had a mountain race because I run mountains and everything else , and I have a 32 hour endurance run this coming up weekend .

So I'm just getting my mind right . So I was like all right , let's , let's get in the , let's get it , let's get it , let's get it .

Speaker 2

Oh fine , Great Thank you . Let's get it with .

Speaker 1

Michael and I'm just like all right . Yeah and yeah and dude , you freaking killed it that Chanel . I was surprised , man . It's different , it's all about delivery . But Chanel and you , man , you guys have that delivery . Dude , it's like calm and collective and dude , just sarcasm and straight to the point , it was freaking hilarious man .

Speaker 2

Thank you , man , for your listeners . I believe that's what . Is it ? The promiscuous woman debating a clingy guy ? I want , how it stands , a good idea , yeah . Yeah , I mean give it to Jonathan Randall , like he I thought he was . He's like the glue and all of that right .

He committed to being a very annoying , clingy guy , which is what makes you know Chanel's like very confident delivery work so well , cause she plays off it as an opposite , like that's the ideas that you want to comics with different ranges , ones on different opposite ends . That way it comes good .

So , even though you'll like one way more , cause they're a more likeable character I mean the unlikeable character is really selling it for all of us too . So it's just so cohesive . It's like you know , and I love it Cause , like on paper , when I started that podcast , everyone told me it was going to blow .

You know , they , they could see , they could see problems in it . And I got it too . Like I was like , yeah , this might not be any comics thing , but New York City has such a depth of talent and the comics just stepped up and they just did it . They just like , okay , I'm not going to be me , I'm going to be what am I going to be ?

And I'm going to be like , oh , you're going to be the owner of a gay orphanage and you're going to have to make this straight guy on , should straight people be allowed to adopt ? And they're just like yeah , okay . And then it's like and then it's so magic . And then obviously I have my buddy Jake , who judges always in character , and as a judge he's a .

I don't know . There's something wrong with that guy's brain Whenever he dies . They should donate to science to figure out how it works , cause some of the things that come from the ethers of his mind is just ridiculous Stuff I've never heard of . So I mean , he's , he's absolute magic too . And in the judge position he's a sharp shooter .

You know like , yeah , whenever there's a moment that you know could use a punchline , he's in there with something really , really good . So I mean , yeah , it's just complete anarchy , but it works . We , we figured out sort of the format , and then comics actually really thrive in it , cause it turns out , stand up , comics love to argue .

Oh no , great at it too . Yeah , so they took that pretty quick . They adapted hella fast on my idea . So , yeah , it actually , it was actually in my head . Great from episode one you know , our very first one . I was , I remember doing our first one , expecting some real big problems . That was stunned . Oh my God , we might be on something . This is great .

Speaker 1

Yeah , your your Instagram presence . You know people go by fans , right , and so if you look at your fans , on . Instagram . It's not much , but you see the details on where you stand in the world of podcasts . Dude , you're up there . You know that , I know , I know .

Speaker 2

Yeah , Just cause , like don't get me wrong the Instagram thing , I'm freaking . We're so bad right now with social marketing . Yeah , but what does that ? I started my Instagram , I want to say , seven , eight months ago . So yeah , we've been around two months or two years and I started it , you know , after a year . So that's first off awful of me .

I'm completely ridiculous not doing it earlier , and especially with some of the guests we get , because we get a lot of TV guys , whatnot , and they come through and do their thing .

So in the podcast world though , like Spotify and Apple , they promote us , they feature us , we have all these fans and stuff , but yeah , they're like I don't know how , I don't know who they are . Yet again , it's another thing about analytics . I don't know who these people are . I don't know who's listening to us .

We're in so many countries that we keep charting like in the top 20 , like every debut episode , but the only thing is like I don't know how we got them . So now I'm building up the internet presence and they're a completely different audience from that audience . So I mean it's all adding . But you're absolutely right .

I'm just like we're now picking up , I'm clipping all the time and I'm turning our clips into sort of like little Looney Tunes cartoons and just like picking very animated parts of the podcast or some very click baity stuff . I'm posting it because , like I say , if comics could say whatever they want , they're not representing themselves .

Oh my gosh , we got so much , so much comics are saying fire on our show that we're like yeah , let's put this up and it's great because , because , yeah , even you'll look at , like the Instagram thing and you're right . By the way , anyone out there please follow my Instagram so I could boost this .

I actually just started my YouTube like two weeks ago for the podcast . That's again how bad I am at this , so just thought about it as well . But , yeah , like , there's clips already that have gotten more likes . Like , I think I got one clip that got 1,100 likes and right now on our Instagram page we're like 400 total followers .

I'm like , wow , I tripled how many people I actually have , you know , subscribe to . So , yeah , I don't know how anything's going , but yeah , you're right , you're definitely questioning me on a thing that I'm like sort of just starting to really push forward and move fast with right , but , yeah , right now , right , it's like we definitely got to crank this up .

Speaker 1

Well , correct me if I'm wrong , but I feel just like in my podcast . You know , I do multiple things . There's a lot of saturation , there's a lot of the same the good old boys group , you know , and you're funny . Oh , let's hear it .

Speaker 2

Let's hear about you guys having sex . Let's talk about a comic's life . Let's talk about you know all that stuff . Yeah , no , it's all old , it's all boring . You know , like it's so much stuff is doing the same thing .

Speaker 1

Yeah , the interview the big names . You know the big names getting the cloud . They get the followers , they get this right . But then there are people like myself that are bringing in the talent , the younger talent , the people who are making it good . You know , making comedy again great . You're a gift from God buddy , you are you are .

Speaker 2

No , you are Because you're searching for us .

Speaker 1

People are searching for the next big thing . Right , and Michael , like , seriously , I'm surprised you're not as big as you should be , but do ? That podcast is killer . People are going to find out , not just because of this podcast . But people are searching for the not the Rogan , because it's not too much comedy in that .

But you know , like two bears one cave , that kind of thing . I mean you could only take so much of Bert and his shirt off . You know that's not really funny , you know .

And then I'm even on podcasts , though that works Like I can't even see it , but I could sense he's not wearing that shirt , yeah , but you know it's always the same names and so I feel people are finding you because , dude , the shit's original , the shit is funny and God damn .

Podcast Comedy and Art of Moderation

You laugh out loud and your family members are like why are you laughing at 730 in the morning out loud ? You know , they caught me so . I don't know man , I don't know , dude , take it as a compliment , you know , but it's over saturated and people are always looking for new things and they're like man .

Speaker 2

Yeah , I agree , I mean it fits my sensibility . I'm happy with it . But , with that said , like fucking , you know what sort of is hilarious about it Is ? It doesn't , or it might . Maybe I'm being a little pessimist this way because I love it to death . Like I created it .

But I am very like like no one knows who I am or the other cast members , just simply because we have a podcast where we try not to be ourselves . So in that way , it's tough to actually get huge for me when I'm like it's not about me , it's about this huge collaborative effort .

But , with that said , if you're in for laughing and you're into here about like because , like we , I researched the hell out of my questions , like we're coming in really , really hot with a lot of things , yeah , so , and plus , it's like so many of our episodes , like some of my favorite ones are the ones that are like very neat , you know .

So , like I'm like oh yeah , I wouldn't have listened to this if I came across my podcast , but I'm like God , this is really interesting . Like I did a whole episode on sumo wrestling that I remember was like man , I learned so many cool facts about that I had no clue , right .

I think we debated if , like , sumo wrestling should be Japan's national sport and like there's a crowd who's like hell , no , I , just bunch of fat people . You know how to chat . Japanese people relate to that , you know . So I mean , after that we got into so many really good arguments about it .

It was all super funny , but like all these facts are coming through that it's like , yeah , it's like favorite thing about any podcast is that you're learning . Right , like a lot of people love them for learning .

So we're learning , like I think you're learning when you're listening to us , because everything's pretty much real except for , like you know how the debaters respond to it . But the idea is that the characters , the comedians and habit are personally involved in the actual thing .

Like they have a lot of skin , so that way , comics could freak out and go as far as they want trying to prove their case . You know , and yeah , that's just . It's just my favorite comedy when stakes are already high . You know , it's always been . Stakes are high from the get go , from the start of the episode , and then after that we're all doing it .

The only thing written is my questions , and then after that I mean , yeah , they don't know what I'm gonna ask . So a lot of them learn shit in the second because , like I'll tell them , oh , there's this and this , what do you think of that ? And they're like oh yeah , I have to be for this somehow you know and they have to think in that second .

So yeah , I love it , Like absolutely love it . I love seeing how comics react to it . I can't believe how smart some comics are , how they pull stuff like right out and just have such a good take on it right in that split second as someone else , micro penis .

Speaker 1

Oh yeah , that was great .

Speaker 2

That was funny . Like I say , man , like that episode in particular , chanel was the new one Jonathan we'd had on before . Jonathan I always knew was just so freaking quick . If you listen to his other episode where we debated skinny shaming . He was so good in that and so quick . So having him back I was pretty jacked .

And then , yeah , like Chanel was new but like Chanel's a killer , like she's been on so many TV shows .

Speaker 1

I never knew yeah .

Speaker 2

Yeah , she's very , very popular comedian so , yeah , having her on was like , oh , this is gonna be , this is gonna be really epic , like it's just gonna be a tight show and it was a very fun premise . And then , yeah , like it went .

John , I mean it's so funny that you just said micro penis and left it there , cause I'm like trying to think now of your viewers just hearing you say micro penis , like that's referred to me .

Speaker 1

No , no , no , it's not referred to you . It's one of the questions you had , one of the questions . They ran with it and it was just like , oh my goodness , yeah , they learned . But they , deep down , they know , yes , they know , they have game . Dude , they have game , they do . I know , speaking of game , you gotta give yourself some credit , man .

The moderator job is not easy . It's not easy right .

Speaker 2

Well , coming from experience , or what ?

Speaker 1

And they have all the man in the middle , straight face . I know you don't have a straight face majority of the time , but when you're reading those questions , when things are just flying on both sides , how do you keep a straight face ?

Speaker 2

Well , cause , like I mean technically , even though it's me , I am still exaggerated . You know what I mean . So I function as the moderator , like I mean you'll see that , if it's my first 10 episodes , while I'm trying to figure out how to do this , you know how to make my position work the best .

And then I sort of came to the realization that it works the best when I hate both sides . You know so . You know how , like , most moderators have to be neutral in some way and you have to . You know , you just have to be neutral questions . I'm like , oh , I could be neutral but hateful instead , right ?

So it's like I'll totally try to pin both of them really hard and go against it and say and then this way it could be a jerk and be really offensive too to their sides . You know so , and the more offensive I could be to their characters , the more that I give them to come back at me , you know , and then come back at the argument .

So it gets a little bit more Everything more interesting . So I exaggerate that part of myself . But then when they're answering and stuff , I also have to step back for a second and pretend I'm the audience and laugh with them and laugh Like it's all genuine . I'm having such a good time anyway , so it's not hard .

But I kept that in mind that it's like you won't I also . They don't know how these lines are going and if I could be encouraging in some way , they'll keep going further . So I laugh and I enjoy with them their discoveries . So yeah , it's like I sort of keep that in my head that it's like you're gonna say the questions .

Of course you would be straight-faced and attack it , but when they come back to attack at me , I elevate it or I really enjoy it in the moment . But whatever , it's like keep encouraging , sort of what your response is . So yeah , you're right , like it's a different type of job to moderate what I do , you know .

Speaker 1

Yeah , well , all right . How did it all start ? Man Stand up for you .

Speaker 2

When did it start ?

Speaker 1

What's that ? Stand up , yeah , stand up . When did it all start ? When did you know you had it , man ?

Speaker 2

Who knows ? No one knows if you have it .

Speaker 1

They don't love this .

Speaker 2

I don't know if I have it anymore , who cares ? Yeah , you know what's so funny ? I'm doing a recording in like four hours of my podcast and we're literally debating if life is futile . That's gonna be the debate today . So I'm already in that mode of like , yeah , what is life , what is existentialism ?

You know , I got into stand up just because I think I mean , honestly , it was a little bit of an outcast when I was . But there's something I really related to seeing a person on a stage Like I remember watching Damon Way in for the first time . He might have been the first like stand up special I saw .

Yeah , I remember he was talking about like fucking ahead , just ahead , no body , like throwing it in the air and hitting it with his you know gendles , whatever . And I was like , oh my God , you could say that in public , in front of people pay to hear you say that . Wow , I didn't know , life was like that . That's interesting , you know .

And then I started watching more of that and I was in love with it .

I was in love with that premise of like , oh my gosh , let's just go up there and say some ruthless things , like not obviously shocking , but just like easy ideas , anything in the depths of your mind you can express and , yeah , people look at it , even though no one talks about this normally in real life .

And I was just , I mean , enamored by the idea of comedy . And then , yeah , I mean , I also think most just a hypothesis in myself but most comedians love wrestling they still do , actually , you know , and I think a big thing about wrestling is the heel is the bad guy , because they'll have a giant personality .

And then , as you grow old , you're like , yeah , that's all fake and stuff , but a very good substitute to that is stand up comedy , because a lot of comedians are taught to be themselves . It's like one of the only jobs it really is , though it's like one of the only jobs where you succeed more .

If you're yourself , right , you do any other job you'll go in and you'll be like , oh , I want to be myself . And they're like , yeah , we don't really want that , keep it nicer , you know , Keep it .

You wear a tie maybe , and then you know they fake you up a little bit , you know , and that bleeds into your real life , like your job will influence how you act in your real life . But stand up , you have none of that . Stand up . You're like I think this and they're like that's great , go do that .

Then go do who you are and that's you know , to a degree , a lot of stand ups or personalities grow and get really big and yeah a lot of comics to me remind me of , like the wrestlers I used to watch when I was young .

They're just big personalities and I love that , I love being around that , I love seeing that shine , you know , and that's where yeah , I don't know , that's where I think comedy thrives . Obviously is just personality . That's why we're great influencers , right , as we said earlier , though , don't look at my IG , but that's why it was supposed to be paid .

Speaker 1

Yeah , so has anybody compared you to anyone in the game right now Lately ?

Speaker 2

Prepared .

Speaker 1

Yeah .

Speaker 2

Yeah , not really .

Navigating Success in the Comedy Industry

I mean , let me think , when I was young I think I got once I remember I got Bill Burr right . I like went through . Yeah , I went through a quick rant stage . I think I was trying to do rants .

Speaker 1

Gotcha , that's why Okay .

Speaker 2

Yeah , but you know that's like obviously when you're in amateur you don't know what you're doing .

Speaker 1

Right .

Speaker 2

So yeah , something like that , but not really . Yeah , I think . Actually I think when I was young too , like maybe in my first year , someone did compare me to Jim Carrey .

Speaker 1

Ah , see , see .

Speaker 2

Yeah , someone did actually , cause I don't know . I'm very animated with my face , so , jim Carrey with the face , I don't know man .

Speaker 1

Okay , all right .

Speaker 2

No , why ? What are you saying ?

Speaker 1

How old are you ? You're saying you're when you were younger .

Speaker 2

Yeah , 700 .

Speaker 1

Right Total vampire , you started ? At what age ?

Speaker 2

Oh , I started , I think it was 17 .

Speaker 1

Okay , and you're ? How old now ? 700 ? Yeah , 36 . Oh , you're not that old man , I'm 41 , dude , come on .

Speaker 2

Come on , good God Get me off this podcast .

Speaker 1

Right , old Foggy , old Foggy . All right , so 17 . Now do you start it up in Canada or did you go down South to New York and started man ?

Speaker 2

Me . Yeah , I mean I started in Canada . Yeah , yeah , yeah , 17 .

Speaker 1

Hey , hey , I mean you could have pulled a polyshore and just did his thing with his mom , you know , promoting him and giving him his feel .

Speaker 2

Yeah , no , my dad worked at a pig killing factory . He gave me no deals . I worked at a mall . Yeah , no , I got no nepotism here . Trust me , All right .

Speaker 1

How did you know you had what it takes to be successful ? I know you probably don't think you're successful , but how do you do it Like serious question ? When did you know you had what it takes to be , you know , going to New York be that guy headliner I ?

Speaker 2

didn't . No , I would never . I would never think that . I was like I don't know . I mean , maybe maybe I'm mentally ill , who knows right , Like I mean in fairness , like there's no way anyone could 100% say , but yeah , to a degree , like I just I wanted to do it . And I mean it's so funny because that answer could almost be in two parts .

Like , obviously , when I first started , or whatever I was , just I thought I could do it and I was like , oh , this would be great and awesome . And then later , you know , you get crushed a lot , yeah , and you start climbing and then you start realizing a few different things .

And I think one of the biggest things I learned is that people are lazy , you know . So if you're diligent and determined and work and absolutely start to convince your mind that you're capable of something , you'll just do it . You know it doesn't take much more .

Really right , If you can obsess , teach yourself to obsess over a result that you really want to happen , you have a pretty good shot of it actually happening . You know , because there's , yeah , a lot of things I can't actually believe I did and at the time when I was going for them , I don't know why I chose that .

I don't know where it came from , I just wanted it . So I just kept obsessing and becoming obsessed and focused and then I just kept doing things that I thought made me closer to that and then I get them . You know what I mean . Like it just worked .

Sometimes I'd plan for things that I'd want and it would fail in a burning fire and I would get it anyways , just because even when I like , for instance , I wanted bookers . I remember I wanted to start working in America . So I went to a festival that I knew there'd be a lot of industry .

Turns out they put me in this like this off night show where no industry was at , and that was my only part in the festival . And afterwards then I was just hanging out for like five days , but off stage , you know , I just sort of been cheery doing my thing , Bunch of bookers like hanging with me .

We ditched the festival one night and they saw me at some other place and then I think I got more work than anyone at that festival . You know what I mean . So it wasn't exactly how I thought I was gonna get it , but I got stuff .

You know , like stuff sometime given to you because it's always in your head that that's what you want , and I feel like that attracts more than you know any plan per se . But yeah , it comes down to being like , like character debates , for instance , my podcast , the reason why I'm here , I guess , no , no , no , I'm becoming obsessed with it .

I really am , though I'm in my head . I'm like , yeah , actually , there's no way that this isn't a very good product and I'm very proud of it . Like I wasn't this forward with it when I released it , when I started with it , but I was forward enough to know that . I was like oh , I like this , this is great .

Now , this represents me and this represents my humor . It does . I think it's different . And then , all of a sudden , like don't get me wrong , my other cast . They didn't see it that way . It's not their baby , right , they didn't start it . So , they're just like this is great . That's all they thought , but they didn't think anything more .

So then all of a sudden , I started putting in competitions . We started winning , won a few awards . Then we got invited to the biggest comedy festival to pitch as a TV show , and then ABC liked it , and then Warner liked it , and then Paramount liked it , bt liked it , and then all of a sudden , now my whole crew is like this could be something .

So now I've convinced them . So now it's like taking it to the next level . And then we got booked for a festival in San Diego . We had to do it live . And now we finally opened up a Patreon and now we're making money at this . You know what I mean . So it was like , obviously you could say like I don't know , how did I know ?

I mean , I didn't , I just wanted it to . I don't know any step of the way that I have a successful thing , but I tested it . I didn't know to test it whenever I could . So that's where the awards came in . I needed that instant validation or feedback to see how is this received .

And then after that because don't get me wrong , some of my fans I don't think they get the podcast or like it . You know , I don't think it's their thing . Like they'll listen to adults do this and shit , and they're like I think you're being fucking weird and I'm like , yeah , that's the point . I think it really is . I don't know what else .

But but you know , you don't take any of that to heart . You just you just like do I like it ? Do I want to do it ? I do , I do like it . So you know what ? Yeah , I'm going to put more into this and see more and I'm not going to judge this early and I'm going to start seeing the growth .

I'm going to start studying and keeping at it , right , and I mean the response in New York is now really good . Like we're sort of a not a big institution here , we're a small one but we're an institution , right . Like we're getting bigger comics . More people are asking me about it , more people want to do it . We just lost a cast member .

Speaker 1

Several comics came up about replacing him for us and I guess , even have that opportunity , says that you , you're making it , dude , you've made it .

Speaker 2

Yeah , right , it's , it's a thing and you're right . Like the charts , we keep climbing . We're always doing better and better , so it's like there's so much growth . This past month was the biggest amount of people listening , so before was the biggest amount . Like we are up every month .

Speaker 1

Like it's , which is good , 100% no everything's nothing but positive , really .

Speaker 2

So , but it , you know , obviously never as high as you want . You want to be like killing it all the time , but right yeah , no , everything keeps going up . We keep developing more opportunities , but you know , you keep having to develop new skills and grow with the market and focus on being relevant .

So it's like coming up with episodes that talk about what like next episode we have Al Pacino debating a concerned parent Should men over 80 be allowed to adopt ? or be allowed to have kids , right , and it's super good episode , super funny , right , but it's like it's an issue that's sort of in the paper .

And then we also have that we're going to have Bob Eager from Disney debate , fran Drescher on our actors overpaid , you know and like we didn't are playing the characters again and it's super satirical , it's super based in what we're going through now , you know .

So it's like you know , keeping the podcast relevant , staying on top of like really interesting , quick baby things where we could have a very strong perspective and say whatever we want . Yeah , I love it , like I , absolutely . It's like you said earlier , it's original . I think it stands out , and I do , you know .

That's why we're thriving in in a bunch of things . So it's just like , yeah , just keep going . But do I know of anything ? No , fuck , no , I don't have a clue . There's always negative people , all negative things all the time . You know what I mean . So it doesn't matter , like what you do .

When arts out there there's going to be people say , oh , this is interesting , but I don't think it's going to work , or you don't have enough longevity , you know . So you're like I'm I got a ton of that starting out . So , like , well , I started the project and I just don't listen .

I've always been bad at listening , but it's like that also does me favors , because I'm like , yeah , I didn't care , it's like it was all about me anyways , this has all been about me .

It's like my , I like this , I'm going to make it , I don't care and I'm going to force it , because if I want to keep doing this , then I'll find the following that will support this , so I can keep doing it .

Speaker 1

You know you have the following yeah , you were still getting booked as a stand up comedian . That's why you're here . Just the podcast is is just a figment of who you are , you know . And so when you said you were failing , you know what brought you back on the stage in your younger years .

Because if you fail so many times and didn't pan out , I mean what got you back ? And don't say drugs , because I asked that . I asked that to Vicki Barberlach and she was like a lot of cocaine . I'm all like dude , come on man .

Speaker 2

So yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah .

Speaker 1

But what got you going , man , back on stage day in , day out or every weekend , whatever your schedule was like ? What got you back on stage ?

Speaker 2

Lots of carrots , let me tell you , I mean , I just had something healthy , right , right yeah .

Speaker 1

Yeah , People like no , you other things .

Speaker 2

No , maybe yet again . This is maybe back to me , maybe I am mentally ill , because I've always wondered that too . It's like when you keep tanking that much , how does that not sink in ? It didn't , never did . I would bomb buddy , I'm not lying to you like pretty hard , and I'd be devastated . I'd be like , oh my God , this is awful .

And then I'd be back a week later like , ok , I think I got this figured , and then I'd bomb again . I'd be like , well , my mom thinks I'm funny , you know . So it's just like , yeah , I don't know , yeah , I don't have a clue .

Like I just , I honestly think , because I was bullied when I was young and because I had such low self-esteem when I was young that that did me a lot of favors getting into comedy , because you could take such abuse and I'm already used to it . So I feel like whenever I see a jocker or some good looking guy go up , he bombs because he will .

Yeah , he can't just stand up without bombing at least once . Right , well , they take it to heart . So it was so much . And then , yeah , I never see him again . And I mean it's just , yes , sense of egos . That's why comedians are usually built out of , I think , listeners or outcasts .

You know it's like , if you're used to rejection , I mean a whole room hating you . For you know , 15 , five to 10 , 15 minutes , whatever , yeah , go out and be like , yeah , I get this in real life too , whatever . So I try it again . You know , yeah , well , it's like not going to lie .

The reward , the reward is high enough , like , even though maybe not momentary , the doorfin rush of making a whole audience laugh at something that you're saying or that you , they came from you , is extremely rewarding , addicting , you know .

Speaker 1

It makes you feel good before a performance you know , let's say , the day of a performance like let's say you're going to be in Richland on the 25th and 6th when you come off the airplane to the the Comedy Club right , and when you step on stage , what do you do ? Do you like pump yourself up ? Are you at Zen ? Do you ? Do ?

You just know you're going to kill it ? Now that you know for real you're in your prime , because you know you always hear people tanking in the early years , it sounds like you know you hated or disliked your early years when you were younger , but now it's like no , no , no , you're the man . You got a killer podcast . You're booking gigs across the country .

You're going to be in Seattle later on as well . So I mean , not too many people can say they do Seattle , but what gets you going , man ? What gets you going from the time you get off the airplane to the Comedy Club ?

Speaker 2

I mean on the airplane today , every time I'm just love my life , that's it . There's nothing else . Nothing changes , it really doesn't

Comedy, Passion, and Performing Preferences

. I'm happy , I'm thrilled with what I do and I get so much satisfaction from how what I live right now , being here talking to you going over , I appreciate it . You know , helping , helping , if this helps your podcast , helping your podcast , helping other performers being a part of things yeah , no , I love to collaborate .

I love to do , I love to do something I can't . I love to be challenged , you know so , yeah , no , I think , as far as I'm concerned , every second is it's part of this whole thing . I'm doing right and I don't . I don't view anything .

Standups , the easiest , you know , standups , really standups , the relaxing part of like , oh good , now I just go do a show , I'll kill this , right . But like , it's true though , like stand up , I've already developed on stage of like I don't care how , if this goes bad or not , I don't give a shit . I say .

Everything I say and it's everything I say is great , whether they like it or not . Ok , I do , though that's like how my perspective is now . I don't care on stage Like I care . I want the audience to love me or not love me , but love the jokes , love the show , be happy . You know , I definitely want that . That's always what I'm going for .

But you know , back when you know I started stand up , I was like I'll do anything . I really want this to work . You know , now I'm like I don't really care .

Speaker 1

I like .

Speaker 2

I'm going to tell . I'm going to tell my genocide jokes because I love genocide . You know I love joking about genocide , so I don't care if they don't , I really don't care . I think these jokes are great , you know , and it's hilarious how literally about 100 percent of the time , so far , my genocide jokes work .

Speaker 1

They do , man , because a lot of people are done with the whole council culture . The , the hey you can't say that you can't say this . It's done with that man .

Speaker 2

Yeah , but my genocide bits pretty silly and it's pretty like it's pretty me , you know . So I think people just it's just good , it's just I could get away with it , I could say it the way I come to it makes sense you know , obviously I'm like this is maybe my tip for anyone listening Come watch me talk about genocide for an hour .

No right , but like you know it's it's . It's like when you it's like Gary Goldman had that one bit about abbreviations and that's like one of my favorite bits I've ever heard in my life . I'm like this is genius and I never thought I could like such a boring topic or whatever . But he makes it so good , so interesting , so smart . I love it .

So I mean , yeah , like that's , that's comedy . It's just it's taste is taking something that you personally care about , like , oh , if you , if there's a comedian that loves buttons and wants to joke about buttons , listen , I don't give a damn about buttons , but I do love watching a person talk about something they love .

Right , I will always be interested in that , because that I am . I'm always interested in seeing people happy and joyful or caring about something or have a breakdown , or even if they're sad about something , whatever . But I just love . That's where I connect to people . Well , it's like hearing something they're passionate about .

So you know , I mean some comics can go on stage and do sort of the easy stuff of like drinking , yeah , drugs . But if it feels too superficially , I don't connect very well to that . But yeah , then all of a sudden you'll hear comics talking about something they really care about . That's sort of like hey man , has anyone ever talked ?

Speaker 1

about this .

Speaker 2

And then I just start listening , I just start getting really into it , you know , and then I remember it . You know , those are the jokes I always remember . So yeah , like I say that Gary Gullman bit about like abbreviate state abbreviations was , it's so good , I got you . Like when he did that on Conan , I was just like , wow , this is a great bit .

Speaker 1

You know , yeah , when , when traveling , when , where or what is your favorite venue to perform in man .

Speaker 2

Or at I mean probably comic clubs . Yeah , you don't have one specifically . Yeah , because they're built to like . They're built for the art , you know , and or else you're like going to a place that's not built for standup . It's built for many things . A bar is built for drinking and then I'm performing there , right , like .

So that's not going to be the most . Sometimes they fluke out in our , but , you know , for the most cases , no comedy clubs are built that you know it should be a soundproof room . You can't really , you know , get internet . Yeah , you know , stages in front of you , every seat is a good eye line , you know there's nothing else that'll distract you .

No bar in the room , you know it'll be like inside the room and everything's made so that it's dark , with a spotlight on the , on the focus , and then people are just enjoying . You know the art . Yeah , that's a comedy club , right , it's , it's the easiest . Yeah , yeah , like theaters .

Theaters are great , yeah , of course , but comedy clubs are more intimate , so you would intimate better .

Speaker 1

I was going to ask you that you like more intimate settings than yeah , yeah , definitely During your younger years till now . When you travel , is it anything goes or is it all , just whatever is in front ?

Speaker 2

of your face . Cocaine buddy , cocaine , cocaine .

Speaker 1

Or is it just anything that comes to you ? You eat , you know , from the bar , the clubs , or do you have a strict diet ? No , no , I don't have a diet .

Speaker 2

No , Not really yeah yeah , yeah , no . I mean I don't have a diet ? Yeah , no , I mean , don't get me wrong , I like you , so I don't . Yeah , no , I have no diet , I guess that's it , so I got nothing else .

Speaker 1

You're younger years , then You're younger years .

Peanut Butter, Jam, and Comedy Conversations

You eat a lot of peanut butter jelly sandwiches .

Speaker 2

Oh yeah . Well , that was actually when I live with my family Money . I still like peanut butter and jam sandwiches all the time . Then I left . I never ate them .

Speaker 1

Oh , so you haven't OK so that's one of my questions . One of my three stable questions , man so oh , you're playing up .

Speaker 2

and was I poor ? That's what you're trying to play up .

Speaker 1

I get you no it's a personality question and , yeah , yeah , it's a personality question and I normally ask everybody who , whoever it is big , small name how do you guys build a peanut butter jelly sandwich ? And if I don't ask that question , I get a lot of hate mail .

So got to ask you yes , I got got to ask you how do you build when you do eat , or when you did eat , peanut butter jelly , how did you wait ?

Speaker 2

Who's your demographic ? Who are your audience ? Do you only post your podcasts on peanut butter and jelly sandwich like reddit boards ? No , we hear like where am I the only fan base I know that's obsessed with like long images ? That's great , they people . Had you not told me at the beginning of this podcast , this would have been a totally different podcast .

See , I would have tried to wrap in . What about ? What about Saskatchewan berries ?

Speaker 1

Right , their jam is pretty good , yeah , well , hey , hey , people go mom and pop store or shop , or mom makes you know out of those berries or huckleberries .

Speaker 2

Why ? What's your favorite ? What's your favorite ? Berry jam .

Speaker 1

The odd dude raspberry by far .

Speaker 2

Yeah , yeah .

Speaker 1

Wow .

Speaker 2

You OK , I mean probably strawberry , I probably go strawberry , yeah , but I did love , like Saskatchewan or Saskatoon berries , sorry , saskatoon berry jam . That's great , so great . So it's a little like bitter , but yeah , it could go well with crunchy peanut butter .

Speaker 1

See , they're through a curveball man . You , you stop , you stop the flow . So you know , when you say do the Canadian word man . That's why I didn't say I'm from Saskatoon , Saskatchewan , OK well , saskatchewan I grew up . So that leaves me for my second question man , what's your favorite Adam Sandler movie ?

Speaker 2

Oh man , I mean , yeah , it's got to be happy . Gilmore , yo , it doesn't always suck . You hate thinking like , oh man , it's like one of the first movies , but yeah , it really is freaking heavy . Gilmore was like dope . So dope .

Speaker 1

So yeah , yeah , when you said that Canadian , where you're from , you had almost .

Speaker 2

I know , grown up , yeah , yeah , so funny too . I remember my roommate in Toronto got pissed off when he saw that he was like you know , because we don't speak French . So he did that Saskatchewan guy with a Quebec accent . We're like , ok , barely speak English where I'm from a bunch of farmers , right , why that guy ? Have a , have a , what is it French ?

Speaker 1

Yeah , yeah , but that was funny man , big dude , big burly , muscular guy , and he has a small little kid voice . Yeah , it was just funny , it was right . So you mentioned New York comedy scene .

I got to put in a rivalry man when it comes to support fans , people showing up , you'll probably get bigger crowds in New York , but when it comes to West Coast , east Coast , who has the most support ? Well , who gives you the most support man , east Coast or West Coast ? How's that ? What do you mean ? New York , new York is New York man .

New York's the comedy capital of the world . They say you know Austin's getting there , you know that kind of thing . La , they have the big shows , vegas , but New York has , I think , more comedians per capita than anywhere else , correct ?

Speaker 2

I don't know man , I don't know Interesting study Could be .

Comedy and Online Audience Building

Speaker 1

When you go to the West Coast , are you supported highly Like sell out shows ?

Speaker 2

Yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . West is nice . I love the West , of course .

Speaker 1

What makes the West likeable for you ? Is it the Democrat ? I ?

Speaker 2

mean , I mean like , don't get me wrong , so I'm not from your country , I'm not . It's like each state there's a lot of different personalities and that West Coast is full of them . You know what I mean . Like the difference between Washington , Oregon and California .

It might be three different countries , Like I could totally see those being three different countries . You know what I mean . So , yeah , that's just totally different . Like coming up what I mean , I'm doing , Oregon , before Richland , Washington , Oregon itself , that's such a unique place to me . Like the people there are just goofballs .

It's so many like , so many people , obviously in a nice like psilocybin mushroom movement . They're really caught up and the tie dye shirts are Eugene . It's just so alternative . Yet they still have like some like I don't know what you call them , Like like just farmer bumpkins are out there too , you know .

And then you know you have these like Rich , Whitey , Toidy Washington people and they're mixed in with some slacker Pacific Northwest vibes , you know .

And then California , you know California has got a lot , of , a lot of like in Mexican immigrants and a lot of Canadian immigrants and a lot of like , obviously very beautiful , way more sunny , as opposed to other two states which are wet and whatnot . Anyways , how they react is definitely different , how they are is definitely different .

Like there's a lot of personality in America , so much like you guys , such a big population , so it's like , honestly , like support wise , it's always great , but what they laugh at , what people laugh at , is oddly different even from those three states .

You know , there someone was even telling me , I think , why did like Portland , oregon , that they hate King shaming . You know , and if you like you have a joke where you're going to make fun of a certain ideal . You know maybe they'll be against it and now you have to be prepared to be like I don't care , you know , like I got them .

So it's like different sensibilities , but that's sort of the fun of it . I mean , new York is the easily the most wild , easily the most difficult of any scene , just because you're performing for the world every freaking night , exactly Because anyone who goes to New York , like you say , knows it's the world's capital of comedy .

So it's like , oh , we want to go to a comedy shows One thing we got to go to . So it's like , like last night , for instance , like I think , oh , my audience , I had people from Argentina , I had , was it to ?

Two Muslim women from Sweden , I had , was it , some family from Houston and then on top of that , so it's like I have all these age ranges , I've all these people from different things , like it's normal for me to go to one city and know that , okay , this city , this audience , likely the same mindset .

So once I find their mindset , I just craft my jokes around that and then it'll be easy . But New York , you're like , yeah , some of these people don't even know what Starbucks is . You're like they're not the same , they're completely culturally different .

Speaker 1

Yeah , especially jokes yeah .

Speaker 2

So now your jokes have to be a little bit more very personal . You keep , you keep like having to peel back in order to get more people . So what you talk about has to be very more , much more introspective and much more sensitive or much more vulnerable or much more .

Whatever Cause like yeah , like superficial stuff not everyone has the same references in a New York comedy club room .

So , yeah , it's like , it's like performing for the world every night when you're there , as opposed to any other city , I'm not worried at all Cause I'm like good , it's going to be people who probably grew up in the area , near the area or been around there , sort of adopted the sense of what the area is , you know .

So just find that sense and then crush it , you know , find their interests .

Speaker 1

We're almost done . We're almost done . We're almost done . Yeah , besides , your travel to the West coast soon and at the end of this month . What's next , man ? What's next for you ? Comedian , wise , stand up .

Speaker 2

Oh , stand up . Yeah , I want to . I want to shoot a special another one . And then let me think I mean I'm booked this whole year . I think I have like three weekends open and the rest are all booked . So , yeah , I got a killer schedule pretty much set up for this year . But yeah , I'm going to say like , obviously , the goal is now .

I love the new act . I'm doing that . I highly recommend everyone come check out . And yeah , I'm excited to to record it . Put that out . I'm excited about the podcast . It keeps going . Please check that . I have to admit , man , now it's just like sort of more of the same . I'm just happy with everything is like I'm so jazzed You're there .

Speaker 1

You're there , dude , you're there .

Speaker 2

Well , I'm not lying because it's like I'm sort of jacked about this actor's strike . I sort of like it . You know what I mean .

I sort of hope Hollywood dies and it all goes away and it gets flushed out , just because , like I don't know , I've worked as an actor , I've worked as a comedian , I've done TV is stand up specials on TV and everything , and I by far love the idea that I could cultivate a following online and make money off my own fans , instead of having some middleman or

having a gatekeeper . It's predatory towards women or towards enemies . Okay , run an industry . Yeah , I'm sort of like , I'm sort of jacked about this . The politics You're , I don't care , man , you're making your own world .

Speaker 1

Your own , your own business , your own brand , dude , Isn't that exciting . It is Right , isn't exciting .

Speaker 2

Even for you . Now you're building this podcast and you're probably excited about where this goes , and you gotta be .

Speaker 1

I'm excited . It's a lot of time , man . You probably have a bigger production crew than I do . It's just me myself and I dude , so .

Speaker 2

No man , I , I , I , I may I have one other guy , that's it . And then I have to do everything and I got a ton . No , I put , I put a lot into this . Like I say , once you become obsessive , I mean it's not work . Though If you love it , it really isn't work . That's .

I believe in that highly because , like , yeah , the more people are like why would you do all that stuff , and I'm like , yeah , why , why did it all ? But I just never came across like work at the minute when I did . It Never came across like effort . I could look back .

Speaker 1

You broke up .

Speaker 2

But at the time none of it came across as a inconvenience . It just was like oh , I'll do this .

Speaker 1

You broke up right there . Oh , too bad .

Speaker 2

That was my most inspiring stuff . Yeah yeah , the meaning of life came out , you guys are All right .

Speaker 1

Ultimate goal . Man In and out of the game . Ultimate goal .

Speaker 2

Ultimate goal . What do you mean ? I'm on your podcast , take over the world .

Speaker 1

Yeah right , ultimate goal man Podcast . Stand up Personal .

Speaker 2

Yeah , let's see . I guess Obviously it's longevity . Longevity is the ultimate goal for everybody , you know .

So , yeah , as long as I'm continually making good money doing standup comedy and making better money at the podcast like we're making money , we're making decent money , but it's not the best , so making even better there Then yeah , I mean I already have nothing I'm allowed to complain about anymore . Yeah , it was a funny thing about the pandemic .

Once I saw my whole industry implode I realized I can't be upset because I've already achieved a bunch of my goals . I've already found a lot of my dreams . So the idea I mean , obviously if I hate to end your podcast on a low note , but continuing gratitude , is it Like that's ultimate goal ?

Just being grateful because , like that's , I wasn't good at that for a long time and now I'm like I've realized that , yeah , I've achieved a lot .

Speaker 1

I've achieved .

Speaker 2

I've done really well and I'm very happy with what I've done .

Speaker 1

Yeah , I'm glad it's turned around . I'm glad it's turned around .

Speaker 2

Earlier You're like I didn't make it , but now you're saying , yeah , you are no I mean no one made it when they're earlier and that's just part of the process and I definitely that wasn't a turnaround at all . That's just how anyone starts . That's the beginning and I love that era too . I mean , honestly , humans are built to struggle .

You know that's the only time where you're enjoying life . So I mean I was doing fine , making money at standup and touring , before I came up with this stupid podcast where I worked like 25 to 30 hours a fucking week . Are you for real ? But I mean I needed to struggle at something like I was too easy . The other way . You know I have to .

I have to keep finding something , or else you know that's part of life that's like . The best is that you challenge yourself , because it gets boring if you don't .

Speaker 1

Right .

Speaker 2

Right , yeah , so , yeah , so I mean , but yeah , you should do it . Gratitude , I never did it before . Before I was just like so hard on myself , like with everything , and so perfect . So now I'm like , wait , I've achieved a lot and I'm still . I still have such high things . Why not just be very thankful that most people haven't done what I've done ?

Speaker 1

you know , I'm thankful you're here , man , believe it or not , Now I really do mean that and thank you for your time . So I know you're busy . Thank you for fitting me in . Did I leave anything out ? Do you want to add anything ?
