• 1:23Speaker 03

  Who's that creature in the ginger beard?

• 1:25Speaker 04

  Sturdy and ginger.

• 1:27Speaker 03

  Like peppers, the ginger gene is a curse.

• 1:29Speaker 04

  Ginger's a beautiful. You owe me $5 for the whiskey. $75 for the horse.

• 1:34Speaker 03

  Ginger's, oh, hell no. This whiskey is excellent.

• 1:38Andrew Santino?

  Ginger, I like gingers. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to WhiskeyDinner. My guest today is one of my favorite people and others that I've known. My guest by many means once again today, it's Brendan Sagalow.

• 1:48Speaker 05

  Thanks for having me. Yeah, I'm a little bit of a lyricist. I mean, I was picturing you going through my Instagram to like, bring up stuff to talk about.

• 1:56Andrew Santino?

  No.

• 1:56Speaker 05

  And I'm just going like...

• 1:57Andrew Santino?

  No, I'm not doing that.

• 1:58Speaker 05

  Good, good, good.

• 1:59Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, I'm not doing that.

• 2:00Speaker 05

  Yeah, I know.

• 2:00Andrew Santino?

  We just know, we have a lot of people in common. We know a lot of people in the same space of New York comedy.

• 2:06Speaker 05

  New York City comedy.

• 2:07Andrew Santino?

  You're not from New York, though. Where are you from?

• 2:08Speaker 05

  I'm from, yeah, Long Island originally.

• 2:10Andrew Santino?

  Yuck.

• 2:11Speaker 05

  I know, I've been there. But you know what? As you get older, you're kind of like, I totally get it.

• 2:16Andrew Santino?

  No, Long Island's the shit. I'm very ki... I'm kidding because in the same way that people talk about Jersey, they're like, "Oh, Jersey?" You're like, "Jersey's great."

• 2:22Speaker 05

  Jersey's great, and no sales tax in Jersey, so...

• 2:25Andrew Santino?

  What are we talking about?

• 2:25Speaker 05

  So what are you talking about? What are we talking about?

• 2:28Andrew Santino?

  Dude, that's really good.

• 2:29Speaker 05

  That's the only impression I do.

• 2:30Andrew Santino?

  Do Tony, do more Tony.

• 2:32Speaker 05

  I sent in a, every time I send in an SNL thing, it always has one audition and it's fucking Tony Soprano. And I just picture them being like, what is this? This is from like 20 years ago. I'm going, oh, you know. I do this joke where I go, if I had a baby, it would be like a baby. I sent the, the impression was baby Tony Soprano. Where I go, hey, go, go, go watch.

• 2:54Speaker 05

  The class hamster, she's dead.

• 2:57Speaker 05

  I hate this baby shit.

• 2:59Andrew Santino?

  You have the nasal plug too. Like, how do you do that? That's really like.

• 3:03Speaker 05

  I just kinda like shut off my nose.

• 3:05Andrew Santino?

  That's really good.

• 3:06Speaker 05

  Yeah, and then you go like the. Christopher. But it's also not that good. Like, there are some people that are. Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with me.

• 3:15Andrew Santino?

  I think that's good.

• 3:15Speaker 05

  Why can't I just?

• 3:16Andrew Santino?

  How old are you?

• 3:18Speaker 05

  Eighteen. No, I'm, uh, I'm thirty-four.

• 3:22Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, start liking yourself, dude. You're good.

• 3:24Speaker 05

  Yeah, what do you, how do you do that? Do you do that?

• 3:26Andrew Santino?

  No, no, I hate myself. But, but, but, um, it's over for me. I'm done. This is it. Oh dude, I'm jumping.

• 3:32Speaker 05

  No, no.

• 3:33Andrew Santino?

  I'm going to Golden Gate Bridge this weekend.

• 3:36Speaker 05

  Okay. Just to fake it? Honestly, if I were to kill myself, not to get this episode demonetized instantly, but if I were to, I think I would do it bridge style.

• 3:47Andrew Santino?

  Bridge is chill.

• 3:48Speaker 05

  Yeah, because then you feel like the.

• 3:50Andrew Santino?

  The wind whipping through your hair.

• 3:52Speaker 05

  And the one thing is if you survive, there's so many ways that you can attempt to kill yourself. Where if you survive, you're like more fucked than when you tried.

• 4:00Andrew Santino?

  Oh, totally.

• 4:01Speaker 05

  Like if you shoot yourself in the wrong place and then you're like, you know.

• 4:04Andrew Santino?

  A veg?

• 4:05Speaker 05

  Yeah, and you're like, fuck.

• 4:08Andrew Santino?

  Seinfeld, Seinfeld one time in his career had like a really dark joke and I was like, that was the Seinfeld I wish he was.

• 4:14Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 4:14Andrew Santino?

  Cause I, like what he does now is like not, that's not what I like. It's like, it's very like pristine and calculated.

• 4:21Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 4:21Andrew Santino?

  I like more loose and dirty and, but he had a dirty joke. I don't know, I'm gonna misquote it. But it was something to the effect of, um, what's up with these people that try to kill themselves and it doesn't work?

• 4:34Speaker 04

  Like.

• 4:35Speaker 05

  That's hilarious, dude. That would send me, dude.

• 4:39Speaker 04

  But it's per- it was perfect. And then he said, he goes, what, there's no tall buildings where these people live?

• 4:45Speaker 04

  It's a, it's a perfect sign- but it was Seinfeld dark. Dark Seinfeld would have been.

• 4:49Speaker 05

  Well, that's what I, not to tell him what to do or anything like that.

• 4:54Speaker 04

  He tells everybody else what to do.

• 4:55Speaker 05

  What? Uh, but if I were him, that's how I would evolve as an artist. I'd be like, I'm, I'm gonna get a little bit more dirtier. I'd be so calculated at his age, when he made it.

• 5:05Speaker 04

  Right.

• 5:05Speaker 05

  Or whatever the fuck, because I'd be like, oh, okay, now I can, I can be this guy for a little bit. And then when I'm beloved, that's when I start turning the evolution on.

• 5:14Speaker 04

  Turning to a heel?

• 5:15Speaker 05

  Kind of like start smoking cigarettes on stage or something like, yeah, turn totally heel and become.

• 5:19Speaker 04

  Seinfeld on Kill Tony?

• 5:20Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 5:21Speaker 04

  What's up with these trans people? Get all these disabled weirdos out of here!

• 5:28Speaker 05

  I honestly would love to hear what Jerry has to say about Kill Tony. He's like, so they just bring up retarded people? And then they make fun of him?

• 5:41Speaker 04

  Dude, Seinfeld on Kill Tony is such a good sketch. Seinfeld, Kill Tony.

• 5:45Speaker 06

  This next comedian is an assassin.

• 5:50Speaker 06

  From his 90's hit television show, Jerry Seinfeld. Put some fucking respect on his name!

• 6:00Speaker 05

  Damn, dude.

• 6:01Speaker 04

  Kramer would also kill.

• 6:01Speaker 05

  That whole scene scares me.

• 6:03Speaker 04

  Uh, what?

• 6:03Speaker 07

  Kramer would also kill on Kill Tony.

• 6:04Speaker 05

  Kramer would kill. Kramer was ahead of his time.

• 6:06Speaker 04

  Kramer, don't put him and Cam Patterson on the same lineup, though.

• 6:11Speaker 05

  These words, these words, dude, when he tried to do that, it's the best. What did he say after that? He also said something where he was like.

• 6:21Speaker 04

  You don't like the words, you see, you see?

• 6:22Speaker 05

  He's like, you, you motherfuckers.

• 6:24Speaker 04

  You motherfuckers?

• 6:27Andrew Santino?

  It's the most uncomfortable clip, dude. We watch it every year. It's so good.

• 6:31Speaker 05

  Yeah, dude, watching that is like Christmas.

• 6:33Andrew Santino?

  It's so good.

• 6:35Speaker 05

  That's so funny.

• 6:36Andrew Santino?

  And then when he just drops the mic and walks offstage, he knows it's over. It's like a perfect collapse of a man. Then when he went on Letterman with Seinfeld, and he was like, "Why are you laughing?" You're like, "Well, it's a comedy show." They think you're joking.

• 6:52Speaker 05

  Seinfeld going, "Don't laugh."

• 6:53Andrew Santino?

  That was so cocky to be like-

• 6:55Speaker 05

  You go, "But surely, Jerry, you understand." Like, you're a comedian.

• 6:59Andrew Santino?

  Comedian, this is insane.

• 7:00Speaker 05

  You do understand why this is funny.

• 7:03Andrew Santino?

  God, can you imagine if that happened today?

• 7:05Speaker 05

  It wouldn't, because-

• 7:05Andrew Santino?

  Wait, let's say someone on Abbott Elementary says the N-word, like during a take. And then Quinta Brunson has to go on a thing and be like, "Listen, dude, they were just kidding."

• 7:18Speaker 05

  Dude, it's so funny too, because now, well, I don't know how it is out here, but like at the Cellar, they have all those like yonder bags and shit.

• 7:26Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, we don't-

• 7:26Speaker 05

  Or like, they put shit in bags to like, keep your phones away.

• 7:29Andrew Santino?

  We do that at the store now.

• 7:30Speaker 05

  Oh, really?

• 7:30Andrew Santino?

  They yonder back. Do they yonder in the OR or just the main room? In both of them now. They do now, yeah, because it used to be main. I think in the belly too. Do they upstairs? All of them. Oh, I didn't know.

• 7:38Speaker 05

  Wow, good. How fucking pissed is-

• 7:41Andrew Santino?

  Kramer that yonder wasn't invented earlier?

• 7:43Speaker 05

  He goes, he does that whole thing, and then like, the, uh, one of the owners of the Laugh Factory's like, "We're gonna have to put these fucking phones away."

• 7:54Speaker 05

  Dude, it really does make for a good show, though.

• 7:56Andrew Santino?

  It's so much better without fucking phones, dude. They're paying attention. And then the drunk girl who wants to be on her phone on a shitty date with a guy she is not gonna sleep with.

• 8:05Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 8:05Andrew Santino?

  They don't even stay, they leave. It's great.

• 8:07Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 8:07Andrew Santino?

  So they're not gonna get through the show by being like, "When is this over?" Like, you don't have that thing happen to the fourth comic who's like, "You guys, please shut the fuck up."

• 8:14Speaker 05

  Although, there is something that I noticed when you're doing the shows that don't have the phones and stuff. Anytime a comic mentions the phones, you can, there are people like, like, "Don't even mention that my phone-" Yeah, "Don't even mention that I can't look at my phone, because I, when I see that, I go, 'Oh, don't mention the phones.'"

• 8:31Andrew Santino?

  Because then they're thinking about their phone.

• 8:32Speaker 05

  Yeah, it's like, it's like saying heroin to a heroin addict. And then being like, and then trying to make them not think about it.

• 8:38Andrew Santino?

  Just kidding, heroin, just kidding.

• 8:39Speaker 05

  You go, "Heroin."

• 8:41Andrew Santino?

  Shrugged.

• 8:42Speaker 05

  There you go. You go, by the way, heroin.

• 8:44Andrew Santino?

  You know that old quote, that old thing that's like, if you could go, if you could have a time issue, you go back to any time, what would you do, blah, blah, blah? Imagine, and Kramer is like, well, I, uh, I would have gone back to the Laugh Factory. And I would have really given it to him this time.

• 8:58Speaker 05

  If I knew it was my last.

• 8:59Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, dude.

• 9:00Speaker 05

  I, yeah, I wonder if he would have, um, ch- changed that.

• 9:04Andrew Santino?

  No.

• 9:05Speaker 05

  You think he wouldn't have?

• 9:06Andrew Santino?

  I think that's, you know, I like that they try to project that he's like, not that guy. It's like, well, that's how he really felt. That was the most raw moment. Oh, that was it, dude. That was him. That's really him. If, that's like, that's like, you know what that's like? That's like when, that's like when your uncle is drunk. And like wasted and you get into an argument with him and he says something like,

• 9:25Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 9:26Andrew Santino?

  Well, if they could just go back to Africa, then if they don't like it here that much. And you're like, whoa, dude.

• 9:31Speaker 05

  You just ruined our relationship forever.

• 9:33Andrew Santino?

  And then he's like, I was drunk, dude.

• 9:34Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah.

• 9:35Andrew Santino?

  I didn't mean it.

• 9:36Speaker 05

  There are times, not to be this guy, but there, cause whatever, but there are times that I know that when people say shit that's like so fucking outlandish or flagrant, uh, you know, they're, you know, they don't really feel that way. And you know, they're doing it to say the worst thing. Like when you're in a car and that stuff comes up, you know, that's what, I, I fully, well, yeah, you're right. Some people, but there are some people that I'm like, you don't think I'm gonna say the worst thing in the world to you? Like, you think I'm gonna be like, well, surely I won't hurt your feelings? I mean, this, this, it's like, you, it's like, if you, I would never, of course, but if you're getting into an argument with like, say, I don't know, like a black guy. And, uh,

• 10:18Andrew Santino?

  Say it with pride next time, dude. Don't do that. Black guy.

• 10:21Speaker 05

  That is my problem. I say it too scared.

• 10:23Andrew Santino?

  When you, when you go down, it makes it worse.

• 10:25Speaker 05

  Yeah, you go, that was actually the first ventriloquism was going, black guy.

• 10:30Speaker 05

  Wait a minute.

• 10:30Andrew Santino?

  What's going on with all these black guys?

• 10:34Speaker 05

  But if you're, you know, I wouldn't, but you know, if you're gonna go like, if you're getting face to face with a guy, and you know that there's a nuclear button that you can just set, you go like, okay, you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna say all this shit to me? Well.

• 10:48Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 10:48Speaker 05

  Like, there is a part of me that's like, I know you don't really believe.

• 10:52Andrew Santino?

  Sure, but when it's in that other context, when someone's like, let me tell you something, you're like, uh oh.

• 10:55Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 10:56Andrew Santino?

  What are you gonna tell me?

• 10:57Speaker 05

  Kramer context too, where he's going like, a hundred years ago, you would have been hanging from a tree!

• 11:02Andrew Santino?

  No, the fork up your ass, you were like Kramer, you thought about it.

• 11:05Speaker 05

  Yeah, you go, yeah, these words.

• 11:09Speaker 05

  Him trying to become Lenny Bruce at the end, he goes, you see, these words, even with Lenny Bruce, when you listen to that, uh, like when you watch the movie or whatever, I don't ever, I don't even know if they had audio from it, like when he did that.

• 11:21Andrew Santino?

  From the, no, I don't think they did, I mean, I actually don't know, I've never seen it, I've only read it transcribed, you know?

• 11:27Speaker 05

  I'm sure it wasn't doing well at first.

• 11:29Andrew Santino?

  Oh, he was bombing, and his friends at the coffee shop afterwards, like, what was that, bro? Why are you doing that?

• 11:34Speaker 05

  He goes, he goes after, he's at the, he's at the bar, he's like, you think that's funny? Was there, was there anything in any of that? I was trying something out, man. I don't know.

• 11:43Andrew Santino?

  I don't know, Len, I just feel like it's not necess, you don't need to, you keep going off.

• 11:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, I think people are gonna be like upset.

• 11:52Andrew Santino?

  There's no audio of that, no way, no chance.

• 11:55Speaker 07

  Uh, some of his performances, yes.

• 11:56Andrew Santino?

  But not of that, not of, not of the words.

• 11:58Speaker 05

  He was doing the, these words.

• 12:00Andrew Santino?

  These words you can't say.

• 12:01Speaker 07

  When he gets arrested for profanity.

• 12:03Andrew Santino?

  San Francisco, is that where it was? Where'd he get arrested? Of all places.

• 12:07Speaker 05

  He was getting arrested everywhere.

• 12:07Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, but, but like, there was one that was like really, that like, you know, and the picture is notorious because the, the photograph of him in the newspaper the next morning, he looks suave, dude, that's when they, they would arrest people for stuff like that, and they were like, it's a good photo op, and the cops were even like, ayy.

• 12:20Speaker 05

  Yeah, they go, okay, this is gonna be on so many dorm room posters. I would get that tattooed on me if I was a younger man.

• 12:27Andrew Santino?

  You got a lot of tats, you are, but I like, I've noticed that when I've seen you online, I like your tats. You've got, you, they look fun.

• 12:33Speaker 05

  They're like, they are fun, the car is sick. This one I got at, um, Skank Fest on, this one's my, I hate this one.

• 12:42Andrew Santino?

  Because of Skank Fest?

• 12:43Speaker 05

  Yeah, because it reminds me of Skank Fest. No, I just don't think it was, uh, done very well and it's big and whatever. But it's like.

• 12:50Andrew Santino?

  The artist that did it didn't do what you want.

• 12:52Speaker 05

  But you know what these are, they're just like, they're, they're, they're what people do when they wanna cut themselves.

• 12:56Andrew Santino?

  Mm-hmm.

• 12:57Speaker 05

  But they're not, they wanna like, it's like fancy cutting yourself.

• 13:01Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, it's cool cuts.

• 13:01Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 13:02Andrew Santino?

  Welcome to cool cuts.

• 13:03Speaker 05

  That's why anyone with like a bunch of tattoos, whenever they try to tell me how to like live my life, I'm like, shut up.

• 13:08Andrew Santino?

  Shut up dude.

• 13:10Speaker 05

  You're covered in tattoos.

• 13:11Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 13:12Speaker 05

  Like you, you have no idea.

• 13:13Andrew Santino?

  What is this one on the wrist?

• 13:14Speaker 05

  This is the Blink one eighty-two album cover.

• 13:17Andrew Santino?

  With like an Italian flag?

• 13:19Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, it's, that's what the album cover is.

• 13:22Andrew Santino?

  Oh, it was?

• 13:23Speaker 05

  It's blue and white and red. Yeah, but somebody looked in there like, oh, French. And I also have eczema, so it's like.

• 13:28Andrew Santino?

  Me too.

• 13:29Speaker 05

  Really?

• 13:29Andrew Santino?

  Well, are you Irish?

• 13:31Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 13:31Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, we.

• 13:32Speaker 05

  Hey. I'm an American.

• 13:34Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 13:34Speaker 05

  Okay? I mean, I'm, I, I have the Irish and the British and the Scottish, I got all that stuff.

• 13:40Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, but we are, uh, anybody who has Irish blood, we have, uh, bad. Oh, everywhere. My hands are really bad.

• 13:45Speaker 05

  Dude, I'm constantly going like this.

• 13:47Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, look, look at my fingers. You can see it on my fingers. It's awful.

• 13:50Speaker 05

  Look at that.

• 13:50Andrew Santino?

  You ever have it, you ever have it in a bad area, like your fucking tush or your balls?

• 13:54Speaker 05

  Or my balls, buddy?

• 13:56Andrew Santino?

  Dude.

• 13:56Speaker 05

  I mean, we just met today, but it is, my balls are covered in eczema, bro. I'm like, I mean, not eczema, but I'm always like, I'm scratching like a motherfucker dude.

• 14:06Andrew Santino?

  Dude, I had a thing, I've never even talked about this. I had a thing, I think I told you, but I had a thing on the underside of my sack. And I had like a panic attack and I was like, what could this be? Like what, and my instinct is like, cancer, cancer, cancer. It's a fucking ca- I'm gonna die. That's it, I'm dead.

• 14:21Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 14:22Andrew Santino?

  And I'm panicking, I go to a doctor, he's like, we'll test it for everything, but it doesn't look like anything, you know, like, uh, transmitted. I said, no, okay, well, but is this cancer?

• 14:32Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 14:32Andrew Santino?

  He's like, uh, I doubt that dude, and which means, yeah, probably cancer.

• 14:36Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 14:37Andrew Santino?

  They test all, they test the skin, all this stuff, cuz it was so uncomfortable. Then I, then he comes back, he's like, no, nothing. He's like, go to a derm. I go to this dermatologist.

• 14:45Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 14:45Andrew Santino?

  Can't figure it out. He's like, I don't know. Then I go to another guy and this dude li- like without even, it took him seconds. He like lifted up my balls and was like, "Yeah, that's genitalia, my man." I was like, "Wait, really?" Cause it was only on the underside of my nuts and he was like, "Oh yeah, yeah, it's not a big deal." He hands me this thing. Within 12 hours, it was gone and I was like-

• 15:03Speaker 05

  This type of medicine kinda shit?

• 15:05Andrew Santino?

  It wa- yeah, it was like, it was like cream tube thing and it was under my nuts, like right on the underside.

• 15:09Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 15:09Andrew Santino?

  And within 12 hours, gone. And I was like-

• 15:11Speaker 05

  Does it come back though?

• 15:13Andrew Santino?

  I haven't had it back cause I put that shit on all the time.

• 15:15Speaker 05

  You put it on every day?

• 15:16Andrew Santino?

  Not every day, but I put it on like if I'm, if I'm like, uh, gonna be schwet- schwetty, if I'm gonna be schwetty.

• 15:22Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 15:22Andrew Santino?

  Like play sport or go for a long run, for a long hike.

• 15:26Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 15:26Andrew Santino?

  No, I do put it on. Yeah, and I was like-

• 15:27Speaker 05

  You're so good at accents, dude.

• 15:28Andrew Santino?

  He said, "Is it a steroid?" He goes, "No, so you can use it."

• 15:31Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 15:32Andrew Santino?

  If he's like, if it was a steroid cream, which I give to people for shit, he's like, "Do not keep putting that on." He's like, "No, there's no steroids in there. You're fine. You can use it. It doesn't matter. Just throw it on if you feel something uncomfortable."

• 15:40Speaker 05

  I'm like-

• 15:40Andrew Santino?

  Go to my guy, dog.

• 15:41Speaker 05

  Dude, every night I spend like a whole tube of cortisone cream, just rub, cause I'll wake up in the middle of the night being like, "Fuck shit."

• 15:49Andrew Santino?

  All over your nuts.

• 15:49Speaker 05

  Yeah, but I, I think it's like a-

• 15:50Andrew Santino?

  But it's never on the pole. It's only on the nuts.

• 15:52Speaker 05

  It's, yeah, it's never on the pole.

• 15:53Andrew Santino?

  Well, thank, that's so, to me, it's almost like I got over it at some point. I was like, if it's not on the pole, I don't really care.

• 15:57Speaker 05

  Yeah, I, I, but then it itches so much and even my chick is like, you know, it's kinda gross that you're always itching your balls.

• 16:04Andrew Santino?

  You know what's gross? You have an open gash in your body. Just, yeah. I'm gross?

• 16:08Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 16:08Andrew Santino?

  You're open, dude. Close up.

• 16:10Speaker 05

  Yeah, but you know, women, if I said that, it'd be a whole fucking thing where if she has to say that and I go, "I know, it's crazy, yeah." Or I have to be like, "That kinda hurt my feelings."

• 16:18Andrew Santino?

  Right.

• 16:18Speaker 05

  And then if it's like, "Well, you hurt my feelings all the time."

• 16:21Andrew Santino?

  Oh yeah, don't let them load up.

• 16:22Speaker 05

  Oh my fucking god.

• 16:23Andrew Santino?

  Because they've been, they've been tacking it in their head of like all the times you said something rude. So they're like, "Oh, does that hurt your feelings?"

• 16:28Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah.

• 16:29Andrew Santino?

  You know it hurts my feelings?

• 16:30Speaker 05

  Oh, by the way.

• 16:30Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, dude.

• 16:31Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 16:32Andrew Santino?

  How, was your lady in comedy?

• 16:33Speaker 05

  She's in comedy, yeah. She's the reason I'm out here. Like, uh, she's doing this funnier die- Thing like you know how everybody's getting into the uh.

• 16:40Andrew Santino?

  Like a sketch?

• 16:41Speaker 05

  No, it's like the filming of sets like.

• 16:44Andrew Santino?

  Oh, what is that one called?

• 16:45Speaker 05

  Everybody's getting into.

• 16:46Andrew Santino?

  Funny or not funny or what?

• 16:47Speaker 05

  Don't Tell does that.

• 16:48Andrew Santino?

  Don't Tell, that's what I'm thinking of.

• 16:49Speaker 05

  Don't Tell does, I think Don't Tell like started that kind of thing and then. So she's doing the funnier die version of it and I was like, you know, I haven't been in LA for awhile.

• 16:58Andrew Santino?

  When was the last time you came here?

• 16:59Speaker 05

  A year ago.

• 17:00Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 17:00Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 17:00Andrew Santino?

  You don't like it?

• 17:01Speaker 05

  I love it.

• 17:02Andrew Santino?

  Oh, you do?

• 17:02Speaker 05

  I li- I do love it.

• 17:03Andrew Santino?

  There's two kinds of New Yorkers, either they fucking absolutely love this place or they're like, this is a hellhole, fuck this place.

• 17:08Speaker 05

  Because I love, you know, Hollywood, I love it all.

• 17:12Andrew Santino?

  Fancy boy.

• 17:12Speaker 05

  I'm like, yeah, I'm like, I love the, the vibe of LA, I, I'm jealous of these like young Hollywood skanks. You know what I mean? Like the, like, you know, young Hollywood where they're always like, like the Charlie X people kinda like.

• 17:26Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 17:26Speaker 05

  You know, where they always have dead eyes.

• 17:28Andrew Santino?

  I love that.

• 17:28Speaker 05

  I always wanted to be a part of that group, but they never have a fat guy in the group.

• 17:33Andrew Santino?

  We will.

• 17:34Speaker 05

  Being like.

• 17:35Andrew Santino?

  Come on over, man. We'll embrace you. We take that in.

• 17:38Speaker 05

  I don't think I could live here.

• 17:40Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 17:40Speaker 05

  I mean, you know.

• 17:41Andrew Santino?

  I can't, but we do.

• 17:42Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 17:43Andrew Santino?

  It just doesn't matter, I just don't care anymore. When I left Chicago, I wanted nice fucking weather for the rest of my life. And I keep saying, oh, maybe I'll leave. And then I walk my dog in February with a coffee in the morning and it's sixty-two and I'm like, what the fuck, where am I going?

• 17:56Speaker 05

  Do you like, like, would you live in New York?

• 17:59Andrew Santino?

  I love New York, I've spent chunks of time in New York, I love New York and some of my closest friends. In my comedy world, cause my comedy class was weird, like, most of the guys I taped my half hour with, with Comedy Central. Were all New York guys, like the west coast guys.

• 18:13Speaker 05

  Who'd you record that with?

• 18:15Andrew Santino?

  My year was, I think, it's crazy, you could look this up, look up my year exactly, but I, I know it was. Within like a year or two, that's when they first started doing it for my class, it was like. Soder and Sam Morrell, uh, Norman, Brooks Wieland was my west coast guy on my showcase.

• 18:29Speaker 05

  That's a whole group of really great guys.

• 18:31Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, but it was just like a lot of my guys became, it was a lot of east coast guys on my thing and I, I had met them. Doing shows and so it just kinda, a lot of my friends became, were New York comics. And west coast guys, they come and they go, like a lot of guys here, they move for a little bit and then they move somewhere else, so that, you know what I mean, like, New York guys.

• 18:48Speaker 05

  Why do you think that is? That's strange to me.

• 18:49Andrew Santino?

  Place is a hard place to fucking live, if you're not from. Yeah, I'll, this reminds you why this is such a, uh, tough place to stay. Whenever you get past Colorado on a flight and you're like, how much longer, like, two more hours, you're like, that's not even real. That's how much more fucking space I've gotta go before I get here.

• 19:06Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 19:07Andrew Santino?

  So when you're back east, everything is bing bing bing bing bing, it doesn't matter, so you can go home.

• 19:10Speaker 05

  You can walk, you can, you train and all that stuff. I mean, here it is kinda like annoying that you have to take a car. But what's cool about this place is like, if you're driving around, down a road and you're like, I fucking hate this city. And then you can turn around and you go, oh, look how beautiful this is. Like, everything is so different.

• 19:26Andrew Santino?

  Well, I do like, we walk at night. My wife and I walk at night. And I will say the one thing I appreciate about, like, the valley where we are now. None of these houses are alike. They all just built them the way they want, like, in this, in the, from the 40s to the 70s. Every architect was like, yeah, fuck it, put a door on that side. And they just did it out here. Long Island kinda has that, right?

• 19:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, Long Island, I mean, that's, it's so much space and all that stuff, but it's so fucking boring and there's no, there's no like, real culture. I mean, the culture there is like, eating baby's blood and lizard people and stuff like that. Oh yeah, that is this. But at least they're here, there's like, lights and it says, girls, girls, girls. And there's liquor places everywhere and all this stuff. And it's really cool, like, the culture here, I really enjoy. Although, it's like, it's so eye-rolly sometimes, like, you get on a plane, cause we're always on. I'm, well, we're always traveling to these like, cities where it's not LA. So you get on a plane to LA, everybody's like, working on their script. Their script, they're all writing, everybody's like, doing something. And then it's like, most planes that I get on, it's just a bunch of fat, older people sleeping with the Fox News on the chair.

• 20:33Speaker 05

  So it's like, it is kinda.

• 20:34Andrew Santino?

  And that's just your seat. And then next to you, dude, I, I don't, that, the people that work on planes, I wish I had the patience. I'm either sleeping.

• 20:43Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 20:43Andrew Santino?

  Or I'm watching a movie. I don't think I've

• 20:46Speaker 05

  You don't work on planes?

• 20:47Andrew Santino?

  Bro, I've tried. It's a nightmare. I hate it.

• 20:49Speaker 05

  I wrote one joke and I'm like, this sucks.

• 20:52Andrew Santino?

  It's just too much, um, I don't know, something's like, something happens with when I get on planes, I'm too, there's too much of people near for me to feel, like when I work at a, when I go to write somewhere, like my favorite is hotel, hotel restaurants where I can tuck away in a corner. Oh dude, I fucking-

• 21:08Speaker 05

  Oh, there's like a romance to that.

• 21:10Andrew Santino?

  I lo-, well, cause people kinda come and they go, but they don't stay long, cause they're in a hotel. They gotta go somewhere.

• 21:14Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 21:14Andrew Santino?

  Where like a plane is like everyone, and they're there and you're like, yuck, yuck, yuck, I don't need it nearby.

• 21:19Speaker 05

  God, and then, you know what I hate about planes too? Is uh, is when you're, they give you the, the little, the little snacks. I'm done with snacks on a plane.

• 21:26Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, I don't snack.

• 21:27Speaker 05

  I'm like, I'm like this, and I'm, I'm jittery and I'm a jumpy guy. Like, so if I think I'm about to spill, I'll go like this to, to overcompensate and then it'll spill everything.

• 21:37Andrew Santino?

  It'll spill anyway?

• 21:38Speaker 05

  So I'm like, I'm waiting for the moment that I spill it on the person next to me or something like that.

• 21:42Andrew Santino?

  Oh, that's coming. Those days are coming.

• 21:44Speaker 05

  I know, so I'm done. I'm, I don't, I'm not having any of that.

• 21:46Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, Sam, C.C., New York, New York, that's why. Who else was my class?

• 23:34Speaker 07

  Stelling.

• 23:34Andrew Santino?

  Stelling was my girl, I love her.

• 23:36Speaker 07

  Randy Litkey.

• 23:36Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, Litkey.

• 23:37Speaker 05

  I used to love the Comedy Central Presents and stuff.

• 23:41Andrew Santino?

  When we got that, dude, I remember feeling like, well, that wasn't Presents, that was called The Half Hour.

• 23:45Speaker 05

  Yeah, that was The Half Hour, when they stopped giving a fuck about making your own background.

• 23:49Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 23:49Speaker 05

  And stuff, so funny.

• 23:50Andrew Santino?

  Just put it up with the same, just put his name up.

• 23:52Speaker 05

  I would say that is...

• 23:54Andrew Santino?

  The beginning of the end?

• 23:55Speaker 05

  The beginning of the end of Comedy Central.

• 23:57Andrew Santino?

  I'm glad I was there for it.

• 23:58Speaker 05

  Yeah, where they just go like, I'll just put their names in the background, you go, what?

• 24:03Andrew Santino?

  Well, they were making so much fucking money, plug and playing these things, and they realized that, that was truly when the profiteering for Comedy Central became significantly more important than like making a show, because when they were still doing Presents, you got to set design. I remember talking to Swartson about that, like that's...

• 24:19Speaker 05

  His, his was cool too.

• 24:20Andrew Santino?

  Fucking awesome.

• 24:21Speaker 05

  I mean, he just put a picture of like himself in the background for one. Bill Burr's was really cool too.

• 24:25Andrew Santino?

  They just had some creative, they let you like have fun, and I'm sure they had a budget, but then when we went out there, they're like, dude, we're shooting six of these a fucking day, get up and get out.

• 24:33Speaker 05

  It's just a screen.

• 24:34Andrew Santino?

  It sucked dude, and also your order meant a lot, like I remember talking to Tone Bell about that, we were, when we, when we get the order, it was like who made the basketball team, because you were like... Fuck, I'm first. Like, it wa- and I felt, I think Morrell, I believe, Sam is, can correct me, but I think he went first on their show. Which is good, or it's, it could be good, but this is a, um, a street walked audience, so they're, they're papered audience for these tapings. They sit there for hours, they give, they give them breaks, which is even weirder, that they're like, alright guys, go get coffee and come back.

• 25:05Speaker 05

  No breaks, don't do breaks, don't do, it's all about momentum, you gotta keep it going.

• 25:09Andrew Santino?

  They didn't do that, they would pause for camera, people reset, like.

• 25:12Speaker 05

  But you know, you don't even really notice it when you're watching it. Like, when you're young, we, we do, because we, we're, we see it, but like, when you're, I remember being younger and just watching and being like, just paying attention to the jokes. And now, you can go back and watch all of them, and I'm like, oh, this crowd fucking sucks, yeah, this crowd blows.

• 25:30Andrew Santino?

  But the internet ruined that for us, I believe, I truly believe the internet did a huge disservice to comedy, taped, filmed comedy.

• 25:37Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 25:37Andrew Santino?

  Because, Soder, I quote him all the time, my bo- Soder said it best, he goes, "You know when someone's like, "I liked him, I like him, I like Brendan better on a podcast, or I like him better on a, it's like, "Yeah dude, because you're getting it straight from the tap, right here." Where that has to be packaged and prepared and manipulated and dictated, it's, it's a, it's a thing.

• 25:55Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 25:55Andrew Santino?

  Where this, they're like, it's right from the hose, this is right from the fucking hose, and they can drink it up and be like, it's quick and easy, and it goes away, and then tomorrow, a new thing, and a new thing.

• 26:03Speaker 05

  Yeah, and you, you have to keep fucking, uh, like, I don't know about, like, my generation needs to keep putting shit out.

• 26:10Andrew Santino?

  We do too, otherwise we become more and more, well, that's why you see the older guys, like, the, the guys that I grew up, like, adoring, like Colin Quinn is a good example of a guy who I was like, one of the coolest guys of, of all time, still is, I'm saying, he starts to get into internet stuff now, because they know that's a piece of the fucking world.

• 26:28Speaker 05

  I know, just to stay, just to stay in it, because they need to do that.

• 26:30Andrew Santino?

  I don't think they want to, I don't think a tell wants to do podcasts, I mean, I know he doesn't, when he came on Bad, I could tell, he was, he was like, "I'm gonna eat some dates, if that's okay," and he had a bag of dates, remember that?

• 26:41Speaker 05

  He's hilarious, dude, I was watching him at the Cellar the other night, and he's, uh, doing this thing, and he's like, "Let's talk about pizza." Pizza, blah, blah, blah, and he goes, somebody from Australia is in the audience, and he goes, "Australia, I'm sure you..." You guys don't have good pizza, do ya? And then the Australian guy who's trying to like one up him goes, no, no, but we got free healthcare.

• 27:01Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 27:02Speaker 05

  And everyone's like, oh, yeah, yeah, which to me would have been like, yeah, well, fuck you, bud. And Etelle just goes, must be delicious. So let's talk about pizza. And I'm like, oh, my God, he's just such a pro, dude.

• 27:14Andrew Santino?

  He is the best. Nobody's better at, like, the unfortunate truth about crowd work clips that have kind of like encompassed our world is that the guys who should have the most of them.

• 27:22Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 27:23Andrew Santino?

  Don't do them. Like, his would be monumental. The, I mean, he, hi- his, his crowd work stuff is so good. And he kind of throws it away so often that you're like, encapsulate that.

• 27:34Speaker 05

  I know.

• 27:34Andrew Santino?

  Show people that that's the fucking.

• 27:36Speaker 05

  I know, and he'll, he never will. He'll be like, no, no.

• 27:39Andrew Santino?

  Well, but honestly, he's still adaptable. So when you talk to him about it, he's like, I just don't know how. And you're like, no, you just get a guy. He's like, ah, I don't want to do it.

• 27:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, I feel like Colin's kind of the same way. He's like, I just don't want to do that.

• 27:50Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, they shouldn't have to, for fuck's sake. Like, they're veterans. It's almost like.

• 27:53Speaker 05

  No.

• 27:54Andrew Santino?

  It's like, give him the chair, stand up. He fucking, he's been like, the idea of like that they all have to do the thing that we're fucking constantly doing.

• 28:02Speaker 05

  I mean, I don't, I don't want to do this.

• 28:04Andrew Santino?

  This sucks.

• 28:04Speaker 05

  I mean, I don't think any, I think, I don't even think musicians want to fucking do it.

• 28:08Andrew Santino?

  No.

• 28:08Speaker 05

  Nobody wants to be a fucking streamer, online presence kind of person. We just want to like.

• 28:14Andrew Santino?

  Have fun and tell jokes.

• 28:16Speaker 05

  Yeah, that was another character I did for, uh, my many SNL tapes that they just threw in the trash.

• 28:20Andrew Santino?

  How many times have you auditioned for SNL?

• 28:22Speaker 05

  Like, I didn't even audition. I'm just sending in tapes.

• 28:24Andrew Santino?

  Oh, sending in the tapes, yeah.

• 28:25Speaker 05

  They're just going, they're, they're, they're putting their drinks on them. Um, and like, or like fixing wobbly tables. Ah, the new sagaloo came in, put that on, hey. Um, another one was, uh, female Colin Quinn, called Colleen Quinn. So it'd be like him being like, uh, you know, I was at the mall the other day, like, bra shopping. They never make bras that are good. I don't have a, my tits the same size as my other tits, you know? I couldn't even come up with material for it.

• 28:54Andrew Santino?

  I like that, dude. Colleen Quinn is so good.

• 28:57Speaker 05

  Quinn, yeah, yeah.

• 28:58Andrew Santino?

  But you dressed up as a Colleen Quinn is, did you put on a wig and shit?

• 29:02Speaker 05

  I wore a wig and I was just going like, you know, I went to get my nails done the other day. Can you believe this?

• 29:10Andrew Santino?

  Did Colin ever see that? Have you ever showed it to him?

• 29:11Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 29:12Andrew Santino?

  Did he like it?

• 29:13Speaker 05

  Uh, I don't know.

• 29:14Andrew Santino?

  Now he hated it?

• 29:14Speaker 05

  I, I have a feeling every single person that ever sees a, an impression of them hates it.

• 29:20Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, unless, unless they're so, um, unless they are a caricature. Like if it's like Gilbert Gottfried, it's like, well, yeah, dude.

• 29:28Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 29:28Andrew Santino?

  You're so much a, the problem is when you do an impression of someone who, that's just kinda who they are.

• 29:33Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 29:33Andrew Santino?

  That, that's when it hits them, cause they're like, I don't fucking sound like that.

• 29:36Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 29:36Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, dude.

• 29:37Speaker 05

  Yes.

• 29:37Andrew Santino?

  Like, I know secretly Burr hates when I do Burr. Because they showed it to him one time on one of those like clips.

• 29:42Speaker 05

  Uh, I sound like that?

• 29:43Andrew Santino?

  And he was like, yeah, Santino, yeah, he does it.

• 29:47Andrew Santino?

  Or whatever the fuck, I could feel him being like.

• 29:49Speaker 05

  That's hilarious. He goes, yeah, yeah, I guess so. I guess I do, uh.

• 29:53Speaker 04

  I guess I do.

• 29:53Speaker 05

  Do I say brutal that much? I don't think I do, but whatever.

• 29:57Andrew Santino?

  Dude.

• 29:58Speaker 05

  I know, but I'm not, the, the best guy at it is like, if we're talking Soder, like, Soder is the best impressions guy that you wouldn't even think is an impressions guy.

• 30:07Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, he didn't look, I mean, you wouldn't know.

• 30:08Speaker 05

  You wouldn't call him, you wouldn't be like, he's not like, uh, what's his name that was doing Madden or anything? Like, you're, he's not an impressions guy.

• 30:14Andrew Santino?

  Frank Caliendo.

• 30:15Speaker 05

  Frank Caliendo.

• 30:16Andrew Santino?

  That guy was fucking unreal. At one point I was, when his Gruden was so good, he sounded exact, come on, you guys. Dude, he was, there's only one comic I can do flawlessly.

• 30:26Speaker 05

  Okay.

• 30:27Andrew Santino?

  And I'm sure you've heard me, or maybe you've heard, seen me do it, but I, my Norman is, is undefeated.

• 30:31Speaker 05

  Oh, I think I have seen you do Norman, hey, hey.

• 30:33Andrew Santino?

  Like, give me anything that he says, like, give me something to say and I'll say, yeah.

• 30:37Speaker 05

  Well, uh, he, he does say, uh, he says stuff like, um, well, that's not fair, a lot. Yeah, well, that's not fair. Whoa, that is really good.

• 30:45Andrew Santino?

  People get creeped out.

• 30:46Speaker 05

  Holy shit.

• 30:47Andrew Santino?

  And I think he hates it. Like, I think Norman doesn't like, cause I think I did it to him on We Might Be Drunk when they were in LA. And he, and he would just go like this.

• 30:54Speaker 05

  Of course, yeah. He goes, huh, yeah. Yeah, creepy. I don't like that. Dude, that is creepy.

• 31:01Andrew Santino?

  I know.

• 31:01Speaker 05

  I mean, you're reaching a register that like, like, I have a Norman, obviously. Everybody in New York has a Norman. I mean, there's somebody that I know that does a really funny and Norman impression that isn't quite complimentary to Mark, although we love, we like, hey, we love Mark.

• 31:16Andrew Santino?

  We love Mark.

• 31:17Speaker 05

  We love Mark. Everybody loves.

• 31:18Andrew Santino?

  One of the best Marks.

• 31:19Speaker 05

  We love Mark, but, um.

• 31:21Andrew Santino?

  Marky Mark.

• 31:21Speaker 05

  Someone has an impression of Mark where they go, why, why can't a man say the N-word? Well, that's not fair. That's like his whole, his whole thing. Why can't a man say the N-word is so funny to me.

• 31:35Speaker 04

  Why can't a man say the N-word? That's not fair.

• 31:38Speaker 05

  That's so good, dude. What the fuck? That's better than any impression I've been doing.

• 31:43Andrew Santino?

  I think I started it, again, because Mark and I and those guys have known each other. That was what? What was that, Comedy Central? It had to have been seven, sixteen years or fifteen years ago?

• 31:49Speaker 04

  Yeah, 2015, and Mark did the season prior.

• 31:51Andrew Santino?

  Oh, he did the one before? Yeah, dude, I remember meeting him and hearing his voice and be like, "That is the most dynamic."

• 31:58Speaker 05

  I know.

• 31:59Andrew Santino?

  And it was not like a put-on. Because when you sit and you just chat with Mark, it's that. It's just a, it's a little bit quieter.

• 32:04Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 32:05Andrew Santino?

  But not like when you meet a guy and then you see them on stage and you're like, "That's not how he sounds."

• 32:08Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah, especially with, uh, you know, a lot of people are doing like black sense on, you know. Do you know any comedians?

• 32:14Andrew Santino?

  Hey, hey. Let's get into it. Dude, honestly, we talk about it all the time. It drives me nuts.

• 32:21Speaker 05

  It's insane!

• 32:21Andrew Santino?

  What is that?

• 32:22Speaker 05

  I was talking to this guy, I was at New York Comedy Club in New York. And, uh,

• 32:28Speaker 05

  I don't even know why I have to say that. I was in New York Comedy Club, Cincinnati. And, um, I'm talking to this guy who I came up with in the scene. And he had moved to LA. And he was back and we're catching up. "How are you, man?" "Good, good, good." And then somebody came into the green room, "Hey, man, you're up in two." And he goes, "Okay, I'm gonna go ca-" like, feel the vibe. And then I, he walks in and then I hear him get on stage and he's like, "What's up, motherfuckers? How you doing?" He was like, I'm like, I'm like, "This isn't you." It really upsets me. As somebody who, uh, raps, I, I hate seeing the black scent.

• 33:00Andrew Santino?

  The, the, the black scent thing is pervasive, but it's, also, it's too white comics who, um, it, it's so ill-fitting for their personality. That's what weirds me out.

• 33:10Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 33:10Andrew Santino?

  Like, if, when it's like, by the way, Gary Owen doesn't even do it as bad as some of the young, and Gary Owen is an only black audience.

• 33:17Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 33:17Andrew Santino?

  And even Gary, you can tell, still refrains from getting too, like, too much. But then you see these white guys that are from like,

• 33:25Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 33:25Andrew Santino?

  Like, fucking, Western PA, and they're like, "Oh, yo, yo, yo, yo! This motherfucker is crazy!"

• 33:31Speaker 05

  Oh, I hate it, dude. Even hearing you doing that, it's like, it feels like somebody's like stomping on my brain.

• 33:37Andrew Santino?

  I think I know the guy that you were referencing that you started with that moved here and moved back.

• 33:42Speaker 02

  We pour whiskey.

• 36:03Speaker 05

  Well Gary Owen is great at it because uh he like when you come up in that scene you know if I put this on too much they're gonna see right through it.

• 36:12Andrew Santino?

  A hundred percent.

• 36:12Speaker 05

  So I can't do that.

• 36:14Andrew Santino?

  No you can, by the way, I, whenever I did phenomenal in black rooms or non-full white rooms when it was like you know if it was a black room or even an east side room like if it was a lot of Mexicans in LA the more white I was, the more they liked me.

• 36:29Speaker 05

  Well yeah.

• 36:30Andrew Santino?

  So I always found it counterintuitive when someone would get up there and be like, you know what the fuck I'm talking about? And I was like, why are you saying that?

• 36:36Speaker 05

  It's so the opposite of what you should be doing because like, not to be like this is how it should go. But you see that a lot with uh when people follow someone who's really dirty, they're like, oh fuck, I gotta be dirty and you go, no, no, no, this crowd just saw someone who's dirty.

• 36:49Andrew Santino?

  Right.

• 36:49Speaker 05

  They don't wanna see the same thing all the time.

• 36:51Andrew Santino?

  Well that's what, yeah.

• 36:52Speaker 05

  Almost the same thing in a

• 36:54Andrew Santino?

  In a, in the, in the black scent world.

• 36:55Speaker 05

  Yeah, in the black scent world and also like, you know, uh crowds like authenticity. So if you're going up and you're being like, yo, yo, they can, you can always tell when someone's using a word that you're like, you're forcing yourself to say tripping. You know what I mean? You go, and I'm tripping right now, but you go, I don't think so.

• 37:14Andrew Santino?

  What's the other thing I hate that you say? What do you say that?

• 37:16Speaker 05

  You say it?

• 37:17Speaker 07

  Oh, I say fire.

• 37:18Andrew Santino?

  Fire, I fucking hate that, so, but that's just cuz he's young, he's 26. But he would, he would go, we'd be on the tour and he'd go, off the bus, he'd be like, yo, that food was fire and I would like, stop it.

• 37:29Speaker 07

  You're making it sound like I was doing more of a black scent, I just go, oh, that was fire.

• 37:32Andrew Santino?

  No, no, you, you would say

• 37:34Speaker 05

  That still sucks though dude.

• 37:34Andrew Santino?

  That sucks.

• 37:36Speaker 05

  I'm trying to be on your side, man.

• 37:38Andrew Santino?

  No, but sometimes you would go, you would go, that shit's fire, you would say that shit's fire, don't fucking lie. We both got, we all got annoyed with it and then we made you change fire to what?

• 37:48Speaker 05

  Uh, good?

• 37:49Speaker 07

  No, it was, it's a name.

• 37:50Andrew Santino?

  Every time you were gonna say fire?

• 37:52Speaker 07

  Who's name was it?

• 37:53Andrew Santino?

  Gary Busey.

• 37:54Speaker 07

  No, it wasn't Gary Busey.

• 37:55Andrew Santino?

  No, no, who was it?

• 37:58Speaker 05

  You had to say it like Gary Busey?

• 37:59Speaker 07

  It was something like Matt Lauer, but it wasn't Matt Lauer.

• 38:01Andrew Santino?

  Matt Lauer might be right.

• 38:02Speaker 07

  It was a different television show host.

• 38:05Andrew Santino?

  It was a television show host and I said, every time you're gonna say fire in your mind, replace it with this guy's name. So he started doing it, it was actually really fucking good.

• 38:12Speaker 05

  That's Lauer, bro.

• 38:13Andrew Santino?

  That's Lauer, dog. Which actually made it cooler.

• 38:16Speaker 05

  I can't stand the black scent shit dude, it really upsets me.

• 38:20Andrew Santino?

  Well you, as a, as a rapper.

• 38:24Speaker 05

  You're right.

• 38:24Andrew Santino?

  You do rap though.

• 38:25Speaker 05

  I do rap, but it's almost like, when I, cuz people want I don't know people want, but they're like, why don't you do more stuff with that?

• 38:33Andrew Santino?

  You should though.

• 38:33Speaker 05

  I go, but I'm, my dream is what I'm doing now.

• 38:37Andrew Santino?

  Comedy.

• 38:38Speaker 05

  Comedy, you know, just try to get the best at this, right? And when I'm rapping, it even, it just sounds corny to me, to me. I'm like, when I'm, when I'm rapping.

• 38:49Andrew Santino?

  When you're spitting bars.

• 38:50Speaker 05

  When I'm spitting my lit bars, um, it's almost like I'm making a macaroni frame for my parents. I'm going, you're not gonna sell this. This is unsellable. But this is just something that I wanna do.

• 39:03Andrew Santino?

  But they'll enjoy it.

• 39:04Speaker 05

  It's like Tom Hardy. Tom Hardy raps. Did you know that?

• 39:06Andrew Santino?

  Shut up.

• 39:07Speaker 05

  He raps.

• 39:08Andrew Santino?

  Does he?

• 39:08Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 39:08Andrew Santino?

  I never, does he, did he put out an album or anything?

• 39:10Speaker 05

  I think he has some stuff out, but I don't know if anything recently because.

• 39:13Andrew Santino?

  Tom Hardy raps?

• 39:15Speaker 05

  Yeah, dude.

• 39:16Andrew Santino?

  I'm gonna tell my wife.

• 39:17Speaker 05

  I don't know, I might be.

• 39:18Andrew Santino?

  No, yeah, he rap, his rap aliases are Face Puller and Frankie Pulitzer.

• 39:22Speaker 05

  Oh, I like, I like Frankie Pulitzer.

• 39:24Andrew Santino?

  Frank, Frankie Pulitzer's, but Face Puller's whack.

• 39:26Speaker 05

  Face Puller is.

• 39:27Andrew Santino?

  But I will say, it's whack as fuck. But I will say, Tom Hardy, that turns me off a little bit about him because I think he's my wife's like number one. Like that's the one that my wife is like, I wanna pipe that dude.

• 39:37Speaker 05

  Right.

• 39:38Andrew Santino?

  And I'm like, go off, queen.

• 39:39Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 39:39Andrew Santino?

  Uh, but I, but that, he does a few things recently where I go, oof, that makes you, me a little, that makes, I'm turned on less, like I'm turned off, but like that, Tom Hardy should not rap.

• 39:50Speaker 05

  No.

• 39:51Andrew Santino?

  No, that doesn't fucking fit. Also, UK, UK rap, cut it out.

• 39:55Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, they're like, up down in the streets, we're gonna party, uh, uh. Yeah, it doesn't sound good.

• 40:01Andrew Santino?

  He was featured on a Zarface song, like the Inspector Deck. No fucking way.

• 40:05Speaker 05

  No way.

• 40:06Andrew Santino?

  But what did he say? How, was it one verse? Well, yeah. Do you wanna hear some of it? Yeah, can we hear it for real?

• 40:12Speaker 05

  Yeah, I would love to hear this.

• 40:13Andrew Santino?

  I'm getting to get pissed off. This is gonna piss me off.

• 40:15Speaker 05

  I mean, he could be bad.

• 40:17Andrew Santino?

  He could be bad? Come on.

• 40:18Speaker 05

  I don't know, dude. I don't know.

• 40:20Andrew Santino?

  I, it's a lyrical video.

• 40:21Speaker 05

  It's not that hard to rap, to be honest.

• 40:22Andrew Santino?

  I think it starts with L O L O L O. Let me hear.

• 40:24Speaker 05

  Oh, god.

• 40:27Speaker 05

  Hello, hello, hello, hello, hello.

• 40:30Speaker 04

  Okay.

• 40:38Speaker 05

  I like it. I think this...

• 40:42Andrew Santino?

  Fuck you dude.

• 40:43Speaker 05

  He sounds like Nems. You know Nems?

• 40:45Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 40:46Speaker 05

  Fuck your life! Fuck you, yo, fuck your life! Yeah.

• 40:49Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 40:49Speaker 05

  He kinda sounds... Look, I'm into it. I can't shit on stuff like that because I am doing stuff like that.

• 40:53Andrew Santino?

  I know dude, but you're... No, it's different. There's something that is very cringey about actors who wanna do too much. You're like, "We let you get away with this. You're playing other people. Cut it out."

• 41:07Speaker 05

  Well, rapping is so hard to do both with unless you're like completely authentic.

• 41:14Andrew Santino?

  But that's the thing. It has to be you. So when people do it, that's not them. When you do it, by the way, I think I told you on... I think when you rap, it's funny and clever and good and like... I'm in on it. Like, I'm in with you.

• 41:27Speaker 05

  Thanks.

• 41:27Andrew Santino?

  When I hear that kinda stuff, it just... It bums me out because as a kid of like 90's hip-hop that I fell in love with...

• 41:37Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 41:37Andrew Santino?

  Anytime people try to like sneak into it from the other world, I was like, "Get the fuck outta here."

• 41:42Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah.

• 41:42Andrew Santino?

  You don't get to fucking do that.

• 41:44Speaker 05

  Especially if you're doing it so... Like, if you're... Like, you know how bad I wanna talk about like having weapons? When I'm rapping, but it's like...

• 41:53Andrew Santino?

  You can't!

• 41:53Speaker 05

  No one would ever buy that. No one would ever... If I'm putting this out, no one's ever gonna buy it.

• 41:58Andrew Santino?

  Did you hear Brendan got a gun? Like, everyone's like, "Why did he fucking do that?" That's not cool at all.

• 42:02Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 42:03Andrew Santino?

  No, it's a part of his persona.

• 42:04Speaker 05

  I'm talking about sticks with the lasers. You know, or whatever. That's very English rap. Don't bump me, Chutney. We've got nothing on me. Alright, eh, mate? I got bars and a bowl of clover.

• 42:14Andrew Santino?

  I know, it drives me nuts!

• 42:17Speaker 05

  It drives me fucking nuts! Hello, hello, I got bars and a bowl of clover. Sticks with the raisins.

• 42:25Speaker 05

  You're just like, what are you saying, dude? But it is so fun, man.

• 42:31Andrew Santino?

  But that's funnier to me than them trying to be like, is there a comedy UK rapper? Because then I'd be into it. Like if it was someone doing, you know how like Little Dicky does it in his world here, right?

• 42:42Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 42:43Andrew Santino?

  If there was a comedy that, I'd be like, this is kinda fucking cool if it's done well.

• 42:47Speaker 05

  I mean, yeah.

• 42:48Andrew Santino?

  No, cuz they take themselves crazy serious about it over there.

• 42:51Speaker 05

  I know. There was that one guy who was like, uh, he, I think he was doing it as like a posh rapper and he's going like, "I'm doing up tennis."

• 42:59Andrew Santino?

  You ever seen that video? No, that's random. I actually like that.

• 43:01Speaker 05

  "I'm Dennis the Menace, doing up tennis." It's like shit like that. But yeah, I mean, it's all about authenticity. Like Dave's good at the, you're like, that's who that guy is.

• 43:10Andrew Santino?

  Right, but that's why I always appreciated Dave. Like when we first worked together, I even said to him, I go, you know, I, comically, publicly, I've been like, fuck white rap. I hate, I always hated it. When I was a kid, I was always like, fuck white rap. And I said, "But, but your rap is you. It's not him pretending to be like..."

• 43:28Speaker 05

  No.

• 43:28Andrew Santino?

  No, he's like, "No, I'm from Cheltenham, outside of Philly. I'm from a nice suburb." And when he does that, I go, "Right, this disarms the idea that you're like, putting on a front for someone to go..." Because even, even in the, I watch those battles sometimes on, on, online.

• 43:42Speaker 05

  Oh yeah, dude.

• 43:43Andrew Santino?

  And the funniest battles are the ones where they like call out a dude hardcore for pretending to be something.

• 43:50Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah.

• 43:51Andrew Santino?

  And it's like, you know, my, you know, like, "My sisters went to school with yours. Like, we went to soccer practice together." I love when they do that. I'm like, "Get him, get him, get him, get him."

• 43:59Speaker 05

  I love that. That's when it's the most fun. Clarence has both parents kinda shit. But my buddy, Rone, who's in New York, do you know him?

• 44:05Andrew Santino?

  R-H-O-N-E?

• 44:07Speaker 05

  Uh, yeah, Adam. He's a, he's a, he's a, he's a battle rapper and he does, um...

• 44:12Andrew Santino?

  He's the kid that's, that, they...

• 44:14Speaker 05

  From Philly.

• 44:15Andrew Santino?

  He does a lot of a cappella shit. Is that him?

• 44:17Speaker 05

  I don't know.

• 44:17Andrew Santino?

  Now I gotta look.

• 44:18Speaker 05

  Yeah, R-O-N-E. Look him up. But he, um, he does these things in New York right now called compliment battles.

• 44:25Andrew Santino?

  Oh, I've seen that.

• 44:26Speaker 05

  And it's so fucking funny and so great cuz these guys are being like,

• 44:30Andrew Santino?

  Rone, yeah.

• 44:31Speaker 05

  These guys are being like, "I'd love for you to give me a massage."

• 44:38Andrew Santino?

  What's his name? Adam Farone?

• 44:39Speaker 05

  Adam Farone, yeah.

• 44:40Andrew Santino?

  I've seen this kid a lot. I've seen him a lot online. Like, he is very good.

• 44:44Speaker 05

  He is so fucking good.

• 44:45Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 44:46Speaker 05

  Um, and he does these compliment battles, and I've been trying to get to him, but I can't just-

• 44:50Andrew Santino?

  Why don't you go do one?

• 44:51Speaker 05

  Oh, I can't. These guys are too good.

• 44:53Andrew Santino?

  You could do it.

• 44:53Speaker 05

  Oh, me?

• 44:54Andrew Santino?

  Oh, me?

• 44:55Speaker 05

  Don't make me sing, man.

• 44:56Andrew Santino?

  But it's all, it's all, it's all written, so it's like, who gives a shit?

• 44:58Speaker 05

  I did a battle rap once.

• 44:59Andrew Santino?

  You did?

• 45:00Speaker 05

  One time, for the New York Comedy Festival, um, this guy, uh-

• 45:04Andrew Santino?

  Who did you kill?

• 45:06Speaker 05

  I didn't kill any-

• 45:06Andrew Santino?

  Who did you fuck up?

• 45:07Speaker 05

  Dude, it was, it was, we were at Caroline's, before it closed down, R.I.P.

• 45:12Andrew Santino?

  Oh, yeah, that's, I forget, every time I hear that place-

• 45:14Speaker 05

  Caroline's closed down?

• 45:15Andrew Santino?

  That's insane.

• 45:16Speaker 05

  I heard rumors that they're starting up again, but, just rumors.

• 45:19Andrew Santino?

  Gonna open this, not this, because then they sell that to-

• 45:21Speaker 05

  No, it's a ping pong place now.

• 45:23Andrew Santino?

  Is it really?

• 45:23Speaker 05

  It's a ping pong place. People play ping pong. And you go, you go, "You know how many fucking meltdowns I've had in this room?"

• 45:31Andrew Santino?

  Same thing. Go talk to some-

• 45:32Speaker 05

  Words, these words. Cut to me, these words.

• 45:35Andrew Santino?

  These words. You're on the wall of shame. They're like, "Yeah, he had a breakdown here."

• 45:38Speaker 05

  But they did a, they, because there's a few comedians who fancy themselves as rappers.

• 45:44Andrew Santino?

  Whom?

• 45:44Speaker 05

  Uh, the guy I went up against was this dude named Alex Asifo. I don't think you know him, but, uh- He does music and stuff, and he, to his credit, he was very good, but there was just something that my buddy, Mike Cannon, said to me.

• 45:59Andrew Santino?

  I love Mike Cannon.

• 46:00Speaker 05

  Yeah, Mike's the best, dude. He, he's like, one of my best friends. And I was, I was tripping about it, and I'm going, "Dude, I don't know if this is good. I don't know if this is good." And he's like, "You're a comedian." He's like, "You're not a rapper. You're, this is, you're a comedian."

• 46:13Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, who cares?

• 46:14Speaker 05

  "And this is for the New York Comedy Festival. Just be funny."

• 46:16Andrew Santino?

  Right.

• 46:16Speaker 05

  And I was like, "Oh, man." And it completely drained all that nervousness out of me, and I, I was funny. I thought I was funny. I was killing. I was go- You know, and I had a couple of bars here and there.

• 46:26Andrew Santino?

  Couple of bars.

• 46:26Speaker 05

  You can look it up. Did you find it? Brendan Sagalow.

• 46:28Andrew Santino?

  I got it.

• 46:29Speaker 05

  Yeah, you can, and-

• 46:30Andrew Santino?

  I want to hear a piece of it.

• 46:31Speaker 05

  Don't play the whole thing, because it does go like, it, it, it's long and it does suck after a while, but, and also, not for nothing, I was supposed to do this show and then go to Mike's, Mike does this show for the New York Comedy Festival, where you take like 200mg of weed, and you-

• 46:48Andrew Santino?

  200?

• 46:49Speaker 05

  Yeah, and you do like a-

• 46:50Andrew Santino?

  That's an awful lot of fucking weed, dude.

• 46:51Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah.

• 46:52Andrew Santino?

  Like, I, like, 100 is a lot.

• 46:54Speaker 05

  I know, I'm like, "I can't fucking do that, dude." And you're, you do, basically, stand up on the spot.

• 47:00Andrew Santino?

  You have a panic attack in front of a crowd.

• 47:02Speaker 05

  Exactly.

• 47:02Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 47:02Speaker 05

  Exactly. So, I was supposed to do that show second- For obvious reasons, like go to the rap battle, then do this show. But when I went to Caroline's, um, you know, surprise, surprise, the rap battle was running a bit behind.

• 47:21Andrew Santino?

  Who's organizing this thing?

• 47:24Speaker 05

  I'm supposed to be on stage right now.

• 47:27Speaker 05

  Oh, god damn it.

• 47:31Speaker 05

  And so then I, so I had to rearrange the night and I went to, uh, New York Comedy Club where Mike was doing his show. And we, I did the, so I'm like high as fuck in this and I'm like desperately holding, like, holding on. And I got to Caroline's and it was a rap battle. Like, it was like people being like, yeah, and I'm like, dude, I don't think I can fucking do this.

• 47:51Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 47:51Speaker 05

  I'm like, they're gonna be yelling at me and, and it's like, it felt like, uh, like the walls were sweating.

• 47:57Andrew Santino?

  Oh, I, dude, you're giving me panic thinking about that.

• 48:00Speaker 05

  And the guy who went against me, he was hitting me, like, he wasn't like funny. He was, he was just hitting me, called my girlfriend like a skank or some shit. And he was just like, called me fat. He was like, blah, blah, blah. Like, he was okay. And then I was just like, alright, here I go.

• 48:14Andrew Santino?

  Here I go.

• 48:14Speaker 05

  So, yeah.

• 48:15Andrew Santino?

  You loaded up, let me hear some of it.

• 48:16Speaker 05

  The first couple of minutes are funny.

• 48:17Andrew Santino?

  Come on, let me hear just a minute. We can cut it out, Joe, if we don't can, if we don't, I don't know if we get copyrights. Who owns it?

• 48:23Speaker 05

  Reggie Kush. Reggie Kush. He runs the thing, so I think.

• 48:26Andrew Santino?

  Let me hear it.

• 48:27Speaker 05

  I think it'll be okay.

• 48:27Andrew Santino?

  Hey, let's hear it.

• 48:29Speaker 04

  Picture this. Picture this.

• 48:33Andrew Santino?

  Stone.

• 48:34Speaker 05

  I'm so high.

• 48:36Speaker 04

  Meeting on a seafoam sea boat with hoes doing coke with a little bit of sea dope.

• 48:42Speaker 04

  One of my hoes is hungry and she's looking for some free dope, so I call my waiter over and it's balance of seafoam.

• 48:51Speaker 05

  That's what I like, okay. I, I.

• 48:53Andrew Santino?

  When you crack the first laugh.

• 48:54Speaker 05

  When you crack, yeah, you go, oof. But I'm like.

• 48:57Andrew Santino?

  Pause this, by the way.

• 48:58Speaker 05

  Even now, I'm like gripping onto this. This was terrifying.

• 49:02Andrew Santino?

  No, that was so good. This is funny that you say this, by the way.

• 49:05Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 49:05Andrew Santino?

  Uh, I see kind of a little bit of going through it, but then once, like, it's sometimes when I get really stoned on stage. And I don't do it as much as I used to, but it was when I was working out stuff. There was a moment of like, come on dude, please crack, please crack, please crack. And then when it crashes you go, oof, big breath. And everything then flows.

• 49:21Speaker 05

  Yes, and there's this, uh, there is this, I don't really sm- I'm trying not to smoke weed till like late, late, like, like, right before I go to sleep now. Uh, or like when I'm done with everything. But when you're high and you're at a good part with an edible. Like, there's, there is a sweet spot with, with an edible where you're like, you just get into this like flow state on stage where everything you say is fucking hilarious. But it's such a small little.

• 49:46Andrew Santino?

  A tiny window.

• 49:46Speaker 05

  It's a tiny window.

• 49:47Andrew Santino?

  And if you have one little cocktail, someone's like, dude, have a drink. And then you're like, oh no, no.

• 49:50Speaker 05

  Yeah, and then you're like.

• 49:51Andrew Santino?

  Fucking gone.

• 49:52Speaker 05

  You're like, uh, what's the difference between, you start doing Chris Rock jokes. Something you're like, uh, uh, they, if they wouldn't even buy a gun if bullets were five thousand dollars.

• 50:03Andrew Santino?

  Did you wait, did you take the two hundred for that?

• 50:05Speaker 05

  I'm, I'm on two hundred milligrams.

• 50:07Andrew Santino?

  How do you, I, dude. And by the way, Mike Cannon, shout out to Mike Cannon, we love Mike Cannon.

• 50:11Speaker 05

  We love Mike Cannon.

• 50:12Andrew Santino?

  We love Mike Cannon. This motherfucker, dude, me, him and DeStefano went to a St. John's game at the Garden one time. And, and, uh, and you know, Mike doesn't drink.

• 50:20Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 50:20Andrew Santino?

  And I was like, uh, I think Chrissy and I were both not, I was like, I don't think I'm gonna have a cocktail or whatever. Mike was like, oh, do you want, do you want some weed? And I was like, yeah, I don't really, like, I like to smoke, I don't really like to eat anymore. And he was like, oh, okay. And then DeStefano was like, oh, he's on like five hundred milligrams right now.

• 50:36Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 50:37Andrew Santino?

  And I was like, right now?

• 50:38Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 50:38Andrew Santino?

  You're at a public event?

• 50:39Speaker 05

  He goes crazy. I think he's stopped too. But his.

• 50:42Andrew Santino?

  No more weed for Mike anymore?

• 50:44Speaker 05

  Yeah, he kind of, I mean, he's taking, he wants to get back to being able to take like ten milligrams and just chill. But he was like, his anxiety is through the roof. Like, we both kind of decided, like, we're like, I'm gonna stop doing this.

• 50:54Andrew Santino?

  Well, edibles are what, well, I think, edibles, uh, my, my generation, I think, still is half in, half out on edibles. Like, well, do them once in a great while. I'd rather smoke a joint. Like, and my, my friends at my house, like, guys my age that come over, everyone that we grew up with. Everyone's like, "I'll smoke a joint."

• 51:11Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 51:11Andrew Santino?

  Love, cuz it's communal, it's a thing. When, when I wanna do edibles with people, I'm always like, "This is gonna hit us differently."

• 51:17Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 51:18Andrew Santino?

  I'd rather us all get high at the same time.

• 51:19Speaker 05

  Right, we're all gonna be like, it's gonna hit us differently, we're all gonna be like, I always said like, you know how high you are by how long, how many times you're going into the bathroom to look at yourself.

• 51:27Andrew Santino?

  Dude, my god.

• 51:28Speaker 05

  Like, I'm like, "Oh god, this is like my..."

• 51:30Andrew Santino?

  Or this, or this guy? Dude, am I fucking beating hard? What's going on, man?

• 51:33Speaker 05

  Yes, and you feel it going dun dun dun dun dun.

• 51:34Andrew Santino?

  I even said that one time to my wife, I was like, "Can you see my heart on my neck?" And she's like, "Go, go sit down, dude. You're fucking embarrassing. Go sit down."

• 51:40Speaker 05

  And, uh, Mike's edibles are like, I don't know where he gets them, but they're, they're, they're like, they hit, they're just panic inducing.

• 51:47Andrew Santino?

  I took one time, oh dude, the year or two, one, the year or two after I did JFL for the first time, when I did New Faces, they asked me for the next year class, or maybe it was two years later, to host the, um, auditions.

• 52:01Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 52:01Andrew Santino?

  So the Hollywood Improv Lab. And I'll never forget, I was living up the street in West Hollywood, and I would walk to the improv all the time, cuz it was really close. But I would usually like, smoke a joint. And someone had given me like, a hash laced, whatever, not laced, it's a bad word, a hash strewn joint, whatever.

• 52:16Speaker 05

  Right, right.

• 52:17Andrew Santino?

  But I knew that going into it. But I had met up with a buddy, um, had a cocktail, and then I was like, "Alright, I'm gonna walk down to the improv, rip this, and then I'll come see you guys afterwards." I smoked this joint, and I got, I felt great, and then I got there, and thank god, they don't, uh, maybe they do have this recorded. I panicked, like, I was like, "Oh fuck, I'm so fucking high." I was way too high. And I had to host an audition for these kids, they were trying to go to JFL. And I get up there, and I'm eating just like, gallons of dick. And, and, and, and it's never stopping. Dude, it feels like everything out of my mouth is bad.

• 52:51Speaker 05

  And you're also doing it in front of industry, and you're going like, "Oh my god." Like, you're also like, "Fuck."

• 52:56Andrew Santino?

  I went up there kinda confident, but also like, uncomfortable, and so they could feel, they were like, "What's going on with him?" And I ate shit, and then I was like, "Let's bring up the first comic," and I was like, "Oh my god, dude." And then I had to go back on, to keep bringing people up, and even then, they were like, "Can you like, entertain, like, get the room to..."

• 53:12Speaker 05

  Oh, fuck that.

• 53:13Andrew Santino?

  And after that, I was like, "I'm never gonna..." Get roofed before I have to do something that I know.

• 53:19Speaker 05

  Those auditions always suck anyway.

• 53:20Andrew Santino?

  Well, I feel bad for everyone that does them because that's why I felt bad because I was like, sorry, I didn't like bring the energy up in the thing.

• 53:25Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 53:26Andrew Santino?

  But they do suck because every idiot's in this, you know, sitting there staring.

• 53:29Speaker 05

  I'll yell at the industry in the back like during like the opening set, like before I start, start the show. And it really only worked once and then I kept trying to do it and it was just like, you know, it just kept bombing because you're trying to, me trying to recreate the magic.

• 53:42Andrew Santino?

  Right.

• 53:43Speaker 05

  Because they'll ask me to host it every once in a while and I'm, one time I was like, you know, I had, I was like, okay, you guys, you're great. Industry, we all know you fucking suck at being audience members. You better laugh, have fun, act like you're not controlling the fucking gates of all of this, blah, blah, blah. And it worked and it was a great show. And then I, the next year, they're like, that was so good. Can you host the auditions again? And I was like, yeah. And I was like, and industry, fuck you. And you fucking, I hate you guys. Like I'm trying to recreate it and they're like, Jesus, man.

• 54:16Andrew Santino?

  Brendan, can we talk to you about how you introduced the first, we didn't really like the rhythm of that.

• 54:19Speaker 05

  Okay, this next guy's from fucking Seattle.

• 54:23Andrew Santino?

  What year, did you do JFL?

• 54:24Speaker 05

  Yeah, 2022.

• 54:25Andrew Santino?

  2022.

• 54:26Speaker 05

  Yeah. My class was.

• 54:27Andrew Santino?

  New Faces Unrepped, what was it?

• 54:29Speaker 05

  New Faces Unrepped, which was.

• 54:31Andrew Santino?

  Are you rep now, dog?

• 54:32Speaker 05

  Oh, I'm rep, baby.

• 54:33Andrew Santino?

  Rep dog?

• 54:34Speaker 05

  Fucking UTA. Hell, yeah.

• 54:36Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, throw it up.

• 54:36Speaker 05

  Actually, I think we may have the same agent.

• 54:39Andrew Santino?

  Who?

• 54:40Speaker 05

  Chris Colo?

• 54:41Andrew Santino?

  No.

• 54:41Speaker 05

  Oh. Were you with him at any point?

• 54:44Andrew Santino?

  No, but these guys like to say that we were, like a lot of times I'll hear a guy be like, that guy said he was your agent. I was like, that guy wasn't my fucking agent.

• 54:50Speaker 05

  I don't, I could be fucking.

• 54:51Andrew Santino?

  No, I wasn't.

• 54:52Speaker 05

  I could be messing some shit up.

• 54:53Andrew Santino?

  But I've been at UTA for a long time. Chris Colo's touring, right?

• 54:56Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 54:57Andrew Santino?

  No, Nick Nusoforo.

• 54:58Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 54:59Andrew Santino?

  Nick Nusoforo.

• 55:00Speaker 05

  I like him.

• 55:01Andrew Santino?

  But honestly, dude, they're fine. I don't even know, like if I like the guy.

• 55:07Speaker 05

  That's what.

• 55:07Andrew Santino?

  Or girl.

• 55:08Speaker 05

  Or lady.

• 55:09Andrew Santino?

  But if I like the person, I'm always like, this is fun. They're robbing me. It doesn't, what's the difference?

• 55:13Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 55:14Andrew Santino?

  You know, the old quote is, uh, this has got to be like some Cary Grant bullshit, you know, sitting around smoking, but it was.

• 55:19Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 55:20Andrew Santino?

  Uh, agents sit around, uh, sorry.

• 55:24Andrew Santino?

  Actors sit around in a circle and they go, can you believe we gotta fucking give these guys 10%? And then agents sit around a circle, can you believe we give these fucking guys 90%? That's how we think of each other as like, well, you're lucky I'm giving you anything. And they're like, you're lucky you fucking get anything.

• 55:40Speaker 05

  Right. They, uh, yeah, they're really kinda not doing much, but.

• 55:44Andrew Santino?

  Nobody, they don't, well, that's.

• 55:46Speaker 05

  It's just good to have somebody.

• 55:47Andrew Santino?

  It is, but I've.

• 55:48Speaker 05

  Just take care of this, please.

• 55:49Andrew Santino?

  I've said this on this show, everybody should look up the clip of, uh, at the, um, at a commencement ceremony. Uh, the speech of the cavalry is not, the cavalry is not coming, is that what it is?

• 56:00Speaker 05

  Yeah, who's that?

• 56:02Andrew Santino?

  It's, uh, Duplass, Mark Duplass.

• 56:04Speaker 05

  Oh, I love that.

• 56:06Andrew Santino?

  Uh, and commencement speech, what, I don't know what the school is, but he did a speech and it's called the cavalry is not coming, right?

• 56:12Speaker 07

  It was at South by Southwest.

• 56:13Andrew Santino?

  South by Southwest, oh, that's what it was, okay. I feel like he did it at a school too. But he did this whole thing. And basically trying to emote to young creators, performers being like, don't think they're sending in the fucking, like.

• 56:26Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 56:27Andrew Santino?

  I've been in the business for 20 years, no one sent in shit. Like whenever someone's like, hey, you got that thing. And you're like, dude, you had to like break next to get near it. And then even when you got near it, they were like, we still don't know if it's real yet.

• 56:38Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 56:39Andrew Santino?

  And you're like, well, when is it real? They're like, it's not, you fucking idiot. But he was trying to say, no matter what he's created, no matter what he's built, everyone assumes, okay, this got nominated for something, the cavalry's coming. Like they're gonna come calling.

• 56:51Speaker 05

  No.

• 56:51Andrew Santino?

  But they just don't.

• 56:52Speaker 05

  No.

• 56:52Andrew Santino?

  Unless you're Margot Robbie. And then they show up at your front door.

• 56:55Speaker 05

  There's only a few industry babies that they're like, let's, but you also see it with these people, especially now because there is, like, the industry's crumbling, I guess. And everybody kinda has to make their own way. You see these guys that, when I started out, they were just like, let's give them everything kinda thing. And whatever, you know, it is what it is. I kinda feel bad for those people now because they don't know how to make their own way. They're like, oh, God, like you see people like going on podcasts and not knowing how to talk.

• 57:23Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 57:23Speaker 05

  And it's like, buddy, I've been podcasting for as, as long as I started.

• 57:28Andrew Santino?

  Right.

• 57:28Speaker 05

  And now it's like, and you guys didn't because you were, oh, well, I don't wanna say anything, cause Comedy Central might, you know, cancel my blah, blah, blah. And da, da, da, da, da. So then they're on podcasts being like, yeah.

• 57:42Andrew Santino?

  What? It was fun. I give a lot of credit to fucking Marin for that, genuinely, because Marin was like the first shit talker on pods. Yeah. Who like adamantly was like, like when Rogan started his, it was like, it was very much like inquisitive and stony. He was very stony on his. And like, it was kinda like dudes having fun. But Marin was the first guy to be like, fuck that, that stinks. And everyone was like, whoa, you can just say that that shit sucks? Yeah. And it gave us a little bit of resonance to be like, yeah dude, fuck those guys. That network stinks. They treated me like shit. Yeah. It kind of opened up a gap of what now is like free rein comedians speaking their mind, which is a piece of the reason I think the business is like, oh shit. Yeah, because we'll, we'll like, I'm- We said it finally.

• 59:47Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, I'm, I'm not quite, I'd love to get like that, like, like to a hundred percent being like, go fuck yourself, like whatever.

• 59:54Andrew Santino?

  Well, you don't need to do it unless they fucked you over. I don't, I don't, I don't think it's like vitriol for vitriol's sake. But there's moments where you're like, you know who fucked me over? My first album deal with this company and they shit the bed and fucked me over and.

• 1:00:05Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:00:05Andrew Santino?

  And you, they should, people should hear it. Cause for years they were like, shut up, take the money and go home and be quiet. And you're like, you didn't even pay me that much.

• 1:00:12Speaker 05

  Well, like the guys that I, yeah, exactly. It's like, yeah, yeah, Viacom's like, we sent you a hat.

• 1:00:19Andrew Santino?

  You don't like the sweater? You don't like the sweater?

• 1:00:21Speaker 05

  Come on.

• 1:00:22Andrew Santino?

  Alright.

• 1:00:22Speaker 05

  Alright, your girlfriend doesn't like sleeping in that?

• 1:00:24Andrew Santino?

  It's a Tosh.0 sweater. We sent you three of them.

• 1:00:28Speaker 05

  Yeah, but like I, I was watching that Stans documentary, the Eminem documentary recently, and there's a guy who's like.

• 1:00:33Andrew Santino?

  How is that by the way? Good?

• 1:00:34Speaker 05

  It's pretty good. I mean, as an Eminem fan, uh, you go like, oh God, some, some of these guys are really, like, I thought I was a big Eminem fan. Like this is like, this is out of this world. And then there's also a part of me that's like, I guess I wasn't as special as I thought, you know?

• 1:00:49Andrew Santino?

  Oh my God.

• 1:00:50Speaker 05

  I know, I know, I'm a psychopath. But anyway.

• 1:00:52Andrew Santino?

  So Eminem was your number one?

• 1:00:54Speaker 05

  Oh buddy, still is. I mean, I wanted to be him so bad. I was like in fifth grade writing songs about how I'm gonna kill my wife.

• 1:01:05Speaker 05

  The teacher's finding that must have been like, Jesus man, you know, um, but he, in the, in the documentary, one of these, uh, Rolling Stone A and R guys, uh, ta, he ta, he talking about, I mean, it is his fault. He did like, he followed Marshall into the, uh, into a bathroom when they were like really young or whatever. And he was like, he comes out of the stall, he hears him puking in the stall. And he comes out of the stall and the guy's like, hey man, uh, I'm in A and R with Rolling Stone, like da, da, da, da, da. And Eminem just burps in his face and then leaves.

• 1:01:38Andrew Santino?

  Cool.

• 1:01:38Speaker 05

  And I'm like, that's so fucking. Cool, man.

• 1:01:41Andrew Santino?

  I thought you were gonna tell the twisted story of the guy, A and R guy's like, "That looks like mom's spaghetti." And he's like, "Whoa."

• 1:01:47Speaker 05

  Wait a minute.

• 1:01:47Andrew Santino?

  One second, dog.

• 1:01:48Speaker 05

  Don't you be writing a song right now! Um, but yeah, like, if that were me, and the guy's like, "Hi, I'm in A and R at Rolling Stone," I'd be like, "Oh, hello, huh? I, uh, very nice to meet you. What's your name again?"

• 1:01:59Andrew Santino?

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:01:59Speaker 05

  You know, I'd be like, such a bitch.

• 1:02:01Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, we all have that bitch shit. The, I mean, maybe it stems from, uh, a little bit of, um, well, I don't know you well enough to say this, but like, a, a, a little of imposter syndrome, like, I think it's inescapable at some point.

• 1:02:12Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:02:13Andrew Santino?

  Do you hear that?

• 1:02:14Speaker 05

  Yeah. What was that?

• 1:02:15Speaker 07

  It's not, I don't, I don't.

• 1:02:16Andrew Santino?

  It's an earth mover. I don't hear it over the mics. It's a fucking earth mover.

• 1:02:19Speaker 05

  I feel it.

• 1:02:19Andrew Santino?

  Because they're doing construction right there, it's an earth mover. That happened at the, at the other pod, and I was like, we thought it was someone turning up bass in the studio, and I was like, "Who the fuck is doing that?" It's an earth mover.

• 1:02:29Speaker 05

  Ding!

• 1:02:30Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:02:30Speaker 05

  Oh, fuck, Skid Row just moved up.

• 1:02:32Andrew Santino?

  No stairway.

• 1:02:34Speaker 05

  Chill.

• 1:02:35Andrew Santino?

  No stairway.

• 1:02:35Speaker 05

  Speaking of Marc Maron.

• 1:02:37Andrew Santino?

  What?

• 1:02:38Speaker 05

  What do you think about the comp? I, I love that every, every couple of years, there's these comedy civil wars.

• 1:02:43Andrew Santino?

  Oh, with him and the beef and everybody? We talked about it pretty heavily, like, I just, you know, no, well, you know what it is to me? It's like, this is kinda what happens when there becomes this divisive moment in any business, where people are like, and by the way, I think this is rooted all in politics, so they're like, "Choose a side," and you're like, "Shut the fuck up." We don't need, no one needs to choo, we're comedians.

• 1:03:05Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:03:05Andrew Santino?

  People can go, you can float as freely as you wanted. I always bring it back to like, when I was a young comic, I only played east side rooms. I couldn't get into the store. I mean, I just wasn't, I didn't get passed.

• 1:03:14Speaker 05

  Mm-hmm.

• 1:03:15Andrew Santino?

  And so I played east side rooms, so a lot of the guys I started with, like, a lot of dudes in my world, were, like, we had Johnny on, you know, yesterday, like, Johnny Pemberton, and Jake Wiseman, and, and Hampton Yat, like, a lot of these dudes, and Whitmer Thomas, a lot of east side guys who were alt guys, or whatever the fuck you wanna call it.

• 1:03:32Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:03:32Andrew Santino?

  I don't know what they call it today, but like, I did a lot of those rooms, and I was able to kinda like, touch there, and then go to the corporate fucking, do an improv booked out show.

• 1:03:40Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:03:41Andrew Santino?

  You know, a bringer show, and a lot of them were like, "Don't fucking go over there," but I wanted to touch all the bases. That's what I think comedy always should've been, which I like to see now more than ever. Cause you see great comics can do all of it.

• 1:03:53Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:03:54Andrew Santino?

  And I feel like that's a lot of this sub root of the beef of comics is like, well, you're on that side or you're on this side. It's like, no, you're not, dude. You're wherever you fucking feel like being. I can be friends with everyone in every circle. I don't care if it's super performative, alt-y shit, subversive comedy, or it's fucking, you know, corporate stand-up. I'm friends with a lot of guys, so I think the beef comes from this old insecurity of like, you should pick a side, man.

• 1:04:18Speaker 05

  Right.

• 1:04:19Andrew Santino?

  And that's old school shit. I don't know what it's like coming back, cause we did kinda get rid of it. But I think because of politics embedding itself in comedy, everyone feels like you're supposed to choose, man.

• 1:04:30Speaker 05

  It's just like a pendulum and it always swings, which is both, uh, like heartbreaking and hopeful, I guess. You're kinda like, like anytime it's like, oh god, we're arguing again about the sides and you go, that'll be gone in like five years.

• 1:04:44Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, it's disappeared.

• 1:04:44Speaker 05

  It's heartbreaking, cause I'm like, but then it's gonna come back.

• 1:04:47Andrew Santino?

  It will come back. But I mean, but this shit's gotta go. I'm, I'm friends enough over the years with so many different kinds of comics from different walks. I, I, I feel like, um, we're letting the outside world dictate how we're supposed to feel about each other, which I think is... Like, we've never met. We met one time. No, I think I met you one time.

• 1:05:08Speaker 05

  Where?

• 1:05:08Andrew Santino?

  At that, at that strip club?

• 1:05:12Andrew Santino?

  I feel like I thought, I thought I met you once at the Cellar.

• 1:05:15Speaker 05

  Yeah, oh yeah.

• 1:05:15Andrew Santino?

  I think I met you one time. But like, I knew I was gonna get along with you. I knew I liked you from afar and like, I, we, I can get along with comics, cause I like comics.

• 1:05:24Speaker 05

  Yes, me too.

• 1:05:25Andrew Santino?

  So there's this weird sub thing of like, but what if he doesn't think of, of the way you think about stuff? It's like, that's, I don't give a fuck, dude.

• 1:05:31Speaker 05

  Yeah, I mean, we're, it's like, it's comedians, like, nobody, we don't know, we're not smart.

• 1:05:37Andrew Santino?

  None of, almost none of us are. There's two of them that are smart.

• 1:05:40Speaker 05

  And are they even really smart? Like, who are you?

• 1:05:44Andrew Santino?

  I think that, I think the smartest comedians alive are probably, um, is, is, uh, is Gallagher still alive?

• 1:05:54Speaker 05

  Gallagher?

• 1:05:54Andrew Santino?

  Alright, he died. Yeah, dude, he was a rocket scientist.

• 1:05:57Speaker 05

  Really?

• 1:05:57Andrew Santino?

  No, I have no, I'm just fucking...

• 1:06:01Andrew Santino?

  I would say who's the highest intellect comedian alive truly is probably like um

• 1:06:07Andrew Santino?

  probably some, oh actually you know who I think is, this is, this sounds like a kiss ass thing. I think Nick Mullins is probably an actual genius. I think he's actually probably a fucking genius.

• 1:06:16Speaker 05

  He's so quick, so smart.

• 1:06:17Andrew Santino?

  I just his, the way that he thinks is very brilliant.

• 1:06:20Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:06:21Andrew Santino?

  So, I'm like, well that's actually a smart guy.

• 1:06:23Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:06:23Andrew Santino?

  Like you can, they, do you know what I mean?

• 1:06:25Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:06:25Andrew Santino?

  Guys that profess to be smart, yeah, they're fucking idiots.

• 1:06:28Speaker 05

  Right.

• 1:06:28Andrew Santino?

  But I think someone like Nick is who, I think he's actually brilliant.

• 1:06:31Speaker 05

  Right, and he never talks about being smart.

• 1:06:33Andrew Santino?

  No, because he actually is very smart.

• 1:06:35Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:06:35Andrew Santino?

  And you can tell by the way he dictates things, you go, oh that's what a smart guy sounds like.

• 1:06:39Speaker 05

  I'm cool with being a dummy.

• 1:06:41Andrew Santino?

  Oh, we're dumb, yeah.

• 1:06:42Speaker 05

  I like being dumb. I'm cool with that, no one's asking for anything. I just make faces, I do sounds. You know, I have bits that's like, what if Batman, you know, was gay?

• 1:06:52Andrew Santino?

  What if he was, by the way?

• 1:06:54Speaker 05

  Yeah, he goes, "Where's the Joker's penis?"

• 1:07:02Speaker 05

  Robin, get in here.

• 1:07:04Andrew Santino?

  Robin.

• 1:07:05Speaker 05

  Yeah, he goes, "Uh, you know, I'm turning thirty, can I like, wear long pants now?" No, no, no, no. Oh, okay, wow, so we're just gonna change everything, and I'll be, I'll be a dog. I'll be Dogman. No, tradition. That means something here in the Batcave.

• 1:07:26Andrew Santino?

  Uh, sir, your bed is prepared and Robin is waiting.

• 1:07:30Speaker 05

  Thank you Alfred. That's your Alfred? Yeah. What is Alfred in your head? Cause my, I always go to Michael Caine. Michael Caine, yes, sure.

• 1:07:37Andrew Santino?

  Well, the old, the Batman, the other, the, the oldest Alfred was, what was that actor's name? Um, he was actually pretty cool, cause he looked like he was on the brink of dying, and I really enjoyed that it was like,

• 1:07:48Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:07:49Andrew Santino?

  He was keeping around this guy, he could've just let retire.

• 1:07:51Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:07:51Andrew Santino?

  Like, just let that guy fucking retire.

• 1:07:53Speaker 05

  Alfred would not wanna retire. He's gotta, he's gotta see Bruce.

• 1:07:56Andrew Santino?

  You say that dude, but he's got a lake house somewhere.

• 1:07:58Speaker 05

  I'm so tired.

• 1:08:00Andrew Santino?

  I'm so sick of building, what was his name? Michael Go. Michael Go, yeah, that was, he was the original.

• 1:08:05Speaker 05

  Cleaning out grappling hooks and he's like, "Oh my god."

• 1:08:08Speaker 07

  From Burton's Batman.

• 1:08:10Andrew Santino?

  Burton's Batman, yeah, but he looked a thousand years old and I was like, that's, that's what the, that's Alfred in my mind a little bit. The Michael Caine is, the only reason I shy away from him is because he was so famous and recognizable.

• 1:08:21Speaker 05

  Right.

• 1:08:21Andrew Santino?

  I like that that guy, I didn't know who that was when I was a kid.

• 1:08:23Speaker 05

  Almost that whole Batman series, the Nolan Batman series is kind of like, what if these famous people were Batman?

• 1:08:31Andrew Santino?

  And that began this run of like, well, they picked up the baton from like the Clooney era.

• 1:08:37Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:08:37Andrew Santino?

  And the, uh, um, Val Kilmer era, which was just so strange, dude.

• 1:08:44Speaker 05

  Yeah, with the nipples and all that stuff.

• 1:08:45Andrew Santino?

  But you might disagree with me because we've, it could be an age thing.

• 1:08:48Speaker 05

  Different classes, yeah.

• 1:08:48Andrew Santino?

  I think, I think truly the best Batman is...

• 1:08:54Speaker 05

  Robert Pattinson.

• 1:08:57Andrew Santino?

  Hundred percent, undoubtedly.

• 1:08:58Speaker 05

  I actually do like that Batman. I like that it's like this noir detective kind of shit.

• 1:09:03Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, dark.

• 1:09:04Speaker 05

  Cause that is kind of what it is supposed to be.

• 1:09:06Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 1:09:06Speaker 05

  And then like, it somehow got this seven up, kind of like through the, you know, whatever happened, now he's just like goofy. Well, I guess it was always kind of goofy, wasn't it?

• 1:09:16Andrew Santino?

  A little bit, but I think, yeah, I guess a little bit, but I mean, the original is still...

• 1:09:23Speaker 07

  I think a lot of the camp came from the television series.

• 1:09:25Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:09:25Andrew Santino?

  Well, that, that's because he, Adam West was a campy. That was like, what's going on?

• 1:09:29Speaker 05

  That's good.

• 1:09:30Andrew Santino?

  And then hanging onto like a buoy in the ocean.

• 1:09:32Speaker 05

  You're good at impressions, dude.

• 1:09:33Andrew Santino?

  And those fake sharks that they had jump up, like I remember those.

• 1:09:35Speaker 05

  You know, the first thing I ever saw of you, I think I was like in, not to, you know, I think I was in high school. But, uh...

• 1:09:44Andrew Santino?

  Ew!

• 1:09:44Speaker 05

  Uh, Daol, is, uh, when, there was a Laugh Factory video of you doing the, this Indian accent.

• 1:09:52Andrew Santino?

  Oh yeah, dude.

• 1:09:52Speaker 05

  That was, that was, I thought you were Indian for like a year.

• 1:09:55Andrew Santino?

  I did a fake, they must have ripped it for you, well, actually, the original story was, there was, there's a comic Raj Sharma. And Ra, the, the night was so bad, uh, like people were tanking shit. And I remember Raj in the back, cause we, I would do it to him all the time. I was like, how are you doing, man? You alright, man? And, and we'd go back and forth.

• 1:10:15Speaker 05

  I'm so jealous, I can't do that voice.

• 1:10:17Andrew Santino?

  We would do it all the time and we'd be sitting in the back, oh, it's right, there it is.

• 1:10:20Speaker 05

  Wow.

• 1:10:20Andrew Santino?

  And we'd be sitting in the back.

• 1:10:22Speaker 05

  I'm a thousand of those likes, by the way.

• 1:10:24Andrew Santino?

  And we'd be sitting in the back like just fucking around and Raj, um... The crowd was bad and I can't remember, oh god, it was Brent. But, and then, somebody got offstage and was like, fuck man, like it was so bad. And you could tell the vibe, I was like, well I don't want to fucking go on, like.

• 1:10:39Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:10:40Andrew Santino?

  And Raj was like, just do fucking in that Indian accent that we do. Do that character where you're like not even from here, because I would do it to him all the time.

• 1:10:46Speaker 05

  Dude, that rules.

• 1:10:47Andrew Santino?

  And if he was like with a girl, he'd be like, this is my buddy from home. And I was like, yeah, are you coming back this year or because you're not gonna go home? And we would sell it as a bit, and she'd be like, is he really a white guy from India? And he'd be like, no, he is for real. By the way, Raj, Raj is from Dallas, he doesn't have an accent, it's my favorite.

• 1:11:05Speaker 05

  That's so funny.

• 1:11:05Andrew Santino?

  But, but we would sell it and he was like, get on stage and do it, and I did it. Unknowing, like thinking like this is a throwaway set, but it actually was kind of fun and worked.

• 1:11:14Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:11:15Andrew Santino?

  And I had no idea they ever filmed that, and then they kind of threw it up, it was literally.

• 1:11:19Speaker 05

  Were you worried when, when they, when like, I mean, this was I think before any.

• 1:11:23Andrew Santino?

  Anybody got like in trouble? I was a little.

• 1:11:25Speaker 05

  Or even worried that you were like, shit, am I gonna get like booked as this like?

• 1:11:28Andrew Santino?

  This act? No, no because honestly, this was kind of long enough ago where. It was just like, um, viral clips were starting to ruminate in from the Laugh Factory thing. And then, and then it went to a dead stop because Burr. Got filmed one time, and I remember he got into a huge fight about it because they had started filming comics kind of without discretion. Without your, without your permission.

• 1:11:49Speaker 05

  Putting them up without?

• 1:11:50Andrew Santino?

  Oh yeah dude, oh yeah, and then finally like Burr was one of the first, he's done this a lot and. A lot of these older guys have been like the hero for the, he's like, you're not even fucking paying these guys? They're like, well they get paid for their spot, it's like, well then you're making money on YouTube, aren't you?

• 1:12:00Speaker 05

  He's the best man.

• 1:12:01Andrew Santino?

  Well that was also when we didn't really know you were making money on YouTube, like no one figured it out yet.

• 1:12:06Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:12:06Andrew Santino?

  And then so, him and a few other comics were like, fuck that. And then finally they started paying comics and it became a war and then they ripped it down and then blah blah blah, but. I didn't know any better, I didn't even know they did it, I was told they put it up and then I saw it. So, I was stoked about it, but then I thought. Are people gonna be mad I'm doing that Indian accent that we do privately between Raj and I? It's like pre-cell phone, I mean people had cell phones, but it was like pre-filming a comic.

• 1:12:29Speaker 05

  Yeah, but it's almost like. I think we're at an age right now where you, you have that, that thought of like, are people gonna be mad at this and you go. Oh wait, there's no consequences for anything any of us do.

• 1:12:43Speaker 05

  Literally, you can, you can do it, like, you, you get the, you know, the rage shit all the time on, like, in your comments. I mean, not you, me, I'll like, look at stuff and I'm like, uh. I had a, I had a video where I was like, so, I said sorry after something offensive and one of the comments was, "That, that white chubby boy ain't sorry, he's always flagrant." And I was like, "That's fucking hilarious."

• 1:13:02Andrew Santino?

  That's so fun.

• 1:13:02Speaker 05

  That's so great.

• 1:13:03Andrew Santino?

  Is it just Andrew Schultz wrote that to plug his own show?

• 1:13:06Speaker 05

  Man, that's flagrant. That dog ain't flagrant, man.

• 1:13:10Andrew Santino?

  Plugging his show on your comment section? Watch Flagrant 2. Every Tuesday at 3.

• 1:13:16Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, Mark Gagnon.

• 1:13:19Speaker 05

  Yeah, so it's like, but there's no, nobody cares anymore, really.

• 1:13:22Andrew Santino?

  Well, the, uh, because I think, uh, although context is lost now in comedy, it truly is. There's so much noise that it almost, even if someone's like, "Whoa, that was wild, they said that."

• 1:13:33Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:13:34Andrew Santino?

  But there's like, there's like, guys, there's people online that I see on TikTok, I don't remember the guy's name, but he says the most racist, wild shit at a computer. Just him at a computer.

• 1:13:43Speaker 05

  The guy with the mustache?

• 1:13:44Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, what's that fucking dude's? He says the most wild out of pocket shit.

• 1:13:47Speaker 05

  He just says the N-word. What, really?

• 1:13:49Andrew Santino?

  All the time!

• 1:13:49Speaker 05

  It's all just rage bait, it's the same thing every time. He's just trying to upset people?

• 1:13:52Andrew Santino?

  But it's working, cause he's got millions of views, dude.

• 1:13:55Speaker 05

  Dude.

• 1:13:56Andrew Santino?

  But they know it's, they know, but everybody knows that he's doing this deliberately and it's making money. And so, anything a con, a comic says controversial, it's bullshit.

• 1:14:06Speaker 05

  Right, right.

• 1:14:07Andrew Santino?

  It doesn't land in that, in that, we're so, we used to be the guys that like, said a thing that people were like, "Whoa, no one kinda says that." And now, people have phones, so they're all like, "I'll say it."

• 1:14:19Speaker 05

  Right, so now, we have to find ways to like, say things that people don't hear all the time. I'm literally on stage, like, my closer is like, "I'm gonna kill myself," and everyone's like, "Jesus," and I'm like, "I, I can't think of another way to make you people like, react."

• 1:14:34Andrew Santino?

  Right, I'm not gonna shock, you're not gonna shock, it has to just be something that, which does level comedy into a better place, it just makes you have to write something better and more clever.

• 1:14:41Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:14:41Andrew Santino?

  Because I'm not trying to compete with shock, like, shock comedy has never been my thing. But it was fun when you got to drop in a shocky thing.

• 1:14:48Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:14:48Andrew Santino?

  But now, people are like, "Heard that today on TikTok." Like, nothing you say is a thing they haven't heard before.

• 1:14:53Speaker 05

  Right.

• 1:14:54Andrew Santino?

  So it doesn't even matter, and you know? It is getting to a place when I do think the wave of super clean comedy is about to make a big comeback.

• 1:15:02Speaker 05

  You think so?

• 1:15:03Andrew Santino?

  A hundred percent. Because now they've had everything and the phone is delivering them the filthiest of anything they've ever dreamed of.

• 1:15:10Speaker 05

  Right.

• 1:15:11Andrew Santino?

  So I think like clever, very clean comedy will start to seep back into society.

• 1:15:17Speaker 05

  Well, I guess it's harder now.

• 1:15:18Andrew Santino?

  Way harder.

• 1:15:19Speaker 05

  It's harder to do that, so anything that's really hard will I guess be rewarded by the people.

• 1:15:24Andrew Santino?

  Who's the best clean comic in your opinion?

• 1:15:27Speaker 05

  Besides Jerry? Besides our board, Jer?

• 1:15:29Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:30Speaker 05

  Um. Bargatze is really good.

• 1:15:34Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 1:15:34Speaker 05

  Like Bargatze is really funny. Um, I don't know. Who do you think?

• 1:15:40Andrew Santino?

  I think Gaffigan might be.

• 1:15:43Speaker 05

  Sing bad, maybe?

• 1:15:44Andrew Santino?

  I think Gaffigan might be the number one to me of like.

• 1:15:47Speaker 05

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:15:48Andrew Santino?

  He's able to do it in a way where it doesn't even feel like he's a clean comic.

• 1:15:53Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:15:54Andrew Santino?

  It's so cleverly written that I'm like, I don't, you wouldn't even know that that's the difference.

• 1:15:57Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:15:58Andrew Santino?

  Cause Gavin could be on a lineup with guys who say foul shit. And just cruise and cruise and you wouldn't even know the difference.

• 1:16:05Speaker 05

  The best clean comics have like an edge to them where you're like, they're kinda not.

• 1:16:09Andrew Santino?

  Well, Jim's got that for sure.

• 1:16:10Speaker 05

  Yeah, he's got, he's got something. You look at it, you're like, this guy's angry or something.

• 1:16:14Andrew Santino?

  Yeah.

• 1:16:15Speaker 05

  Same with Jerry. You're like, there's an anger behind these guys.

• 1:16:18Andrew Santino?

  His resentful, I mean, we've talked about this story. The greatest Jerry story is he came back to the Comedy Store after Mitzi died. And he went up in the OR and he's like, I haven't been here in however many years it was, cause she never passed him. She was like, you're a hack. She didn't like him. Which I think was so rock and roll.

• 1:16:33Speaker 05

  So cool.

• 1:16:33Andrew Santino?

  And Mitzi was like, get fucked, you stink. And he got, he got fucked off and he didn't perform there. And then when the sitcom got picked up, this is his story, not mine. He bought a house on, it was on the Queens or Kings, right above the Comedy Store. And it was above the, the um Shore family house.

• 1:16:52Speaker 05

  Wow.

• 1:16:53Andrew Santino?

  And he goes, I did that because when I would go to work at CBS Radford, I would drive down past the Shore's house and say hello to them sometimes to let them know I'm up there.

• 1:17:02Speaker 05

  Whoa, dude.

• 1:17:04Andrew Santino?

  Did he bought the house above them just to be like?

• 1:17:07Speaker 05

  Rules, yeah.

• 1:17:08Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, that's so that's.

• 1:17:09Speaker 05

  Just to throw his garbage at him.

• 1:17:10Andrew Santino?

  That's very Jerry.

• 1:17:11Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:17:11Andrew Santino?

  Like, you wanna talk about the darkness in the boy? It's resentful. That is some fucking pent up shit.

• 1:17:17Speaker 05

  I know. I'll buy the fucking house above you, dude. Yeah.

• 1:17:20Andrew Santino?

  That's so crazy.

• 1:17:21Speaker 05

  Fuck, that is so cool.

• 1:17:22Andrew Santino?

  I could never. Uh, alright, look, I wanna wrap this up, but I could talk to you for hours and hours.

• 1:17:26Speaker 05

  Yeah, me too.

• 1:17:27Andrew Santino?

  By the way, love, love the kicks.

• 1:17:28Speaker 05

  Oh, you like them?

• 1:17:29Andrew Santino?

  I love, dude.

• 1:17:29Speaker 05

  Yeah, I was looking at yours, too.

• 1:17:30Andrew Santino?

  I can't, you know, I don't wear Jays.

• 1:17:32Speaker 05

  Are those the, um, the, uh, uh, uh, don't tell me, who's that rapper?

• 1:17:35Andrew Santino?

  Come on, dude, you're a rapper.

• 1:17:36Speaker 05

  Oh, god, he killed a bunch of people.

• 1:17:40Speaker 05

  Accidentally?

• 1:17:41Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, these are the murder ones. These are the trampled twos.

• 1:17:45Speaker 05

  Oh, Travis Scotts?

• 1:17:45Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, Travis Scotts.

• 1:17:46Speaker 05

  Those are great, dude.

• 1:17:47Andrew Santino?

  They're comfy shoes. I just like Jordan ones are my favorite shoe that was ever made, so I have a massive collection of Jordan ones.

• 1:17:53Speaker 05

  I go Jordan ones and then the Airs a couple, like, and then I get out of that and I'm like, eh, let me do some other stuff.

• 1:17:59Andrew Santino?

  I have so many.

• 1:18:00Speaker 05

  And then I come back into it.

• 1:18:01Andrew Santino?

  I just, I just can't wear, I can't wear anything anymore. But, but I, also because I have big, clawby feet, and so big shoe, big high tops look even more. Like, when you're, what, how, what size are you?

• 1:18:11Speaker 05

  That's a hilarious description, clawby.

• 1:18:12Andrew Santino?

  Yeah, they're just like clunky and, what size are those?

• 1:18:14Speaker 05

  Uh, ten and a half.

• 1:18:15Andrew Santino?

  Ten, yeah, ten and a half, and a regular sized shoe.

• 1:18:18Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:18:18Andrew Santino?

  Me, tall with a twelve with high tops, it's like, it looks like, I feel like a child again.

• 1:18:23Speaker 05

  Yeah.

• 1:18:24Andrew Santino?

  So I have like, I have a lot of different shoes, but I just don't wear the high top Jordans as much anymore because I just feel like...

• 1:18:31Speaker 05

  They also make, I'm a short guy, so it makes, makes you look shorter when you have high tops. Like, these, I was like, ah, maybe I shouldn't get them because they're just, they're, they go up and then you look...

• 1:18:40Andrew Santino?

  It just looks like your shoe hits your knee.

• 1:18:42Speaker 05

  I know. I'm like, we're the represent.

• 1:18:47Andrew Santino?

  Alright, look, I love having you on, you're the fucking best. Uh, do you have dates? Do you wanna plug any dates or anything? You have shows, you on stuff?

• 1:18:53Speaker 05

  No, I mean, I'll plug some featuring, I'm, uh...

• 1:18:56Andrew Santino?

  Give it to me.

• 1:18:57Speaker 05

  I'm doing, uh, Soder's tour with him, the theater tour.

• 1:18:59Andrew Santino?

  Are you really?

• 1:19:00Speaker 05

  Yeah, yeah, I'm doing most of those dates.

• 1:19:02Andrew Santino?

  He's my fucking...

• 1:19:02Speaker 05

  He's my, he's both my daddy, my brother, and my lover at the same time.

• 1:19:06Andrew Santino?

  Couldn't, like, uh, one of my oldest buddies in comedy who get, we, and still gives me shit, which I love, like, still gives it to me, and then, um, is one of the only comics... I shouldn't say that. I was gonna say, one of the only comics whose spouses I like, I very much love and respect. There's other comics, wives, girlfriends that I like.

• 1:19:26Speaker 05

  Of course, of course, but Katie's awesome.

• 1:19:27Andrew Santino?

  But Katie's the best, so it's like, I was like, perfect pair.

• 1:19:30Speaker 05

  Yeah, they're the best. He's like, you know, there's so few good ones left. And you know what I'm talking about?

• 1:19:37Andrew Santino?

  It's a good.

• 1:19:38Speaker 05

  Just, he's got, he's, he's the real deal.

• 1:19:40Andrew Santino?

  He's a good egg, yeah.

• 1:19:40Speaker 05

  He fucking kills. His new hour is incredible, and he's like, just a good dude.

• 1:19:45Andrew Santino?

  You're wrong, but you're touring with him.

• 1:19:46Speaker 05

  I'm going, yeah, and I'll be at the DC Comedy Loft, January 30th through the 1st, so fuck off, you know, whatever. Who cares?

• 1:19:53Andrew Santino?

  Dude, I love, I love comics. They can't even like, earnestly, like, it's the thing we love the most. Oh yeah, I'll be at the fucking bullshit ass DC, eat shit, bring Trump, bring his cabinet. Come on out.

• 1:20:08Speaker 05

  Bring fucking Obama. I have another one. I also have Baby Obama, if you want to close on that.

• 1:20:12Andrew Santino?

  Okay, so, we end the show with one word or one phrase into that camera, so do Baby Obama.

• 1:20:16Speaker 05

  Okay, here's Baby Obama. Uh, goo. Uh, let me be goo. So, okay, that's my Baby Obama.

• 1:20:25Speaker 02

  In here.

• 1:20:26Andrew Santino?

  He found it, that's so good.

• 1:20:26Speaker 02

  We pour whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey, whiskey.

• 1:20:30Speaker 03

  Oh, that creature in the ginger beard!

• 1:20:33Speaker 04

  Sturdy and ginger.

• 1:20:34Speaker 03

  Like feathers, the ginger gene is a curse.

• 1:20:36Speaker 04

  Gingers are beautiful. You owe me five dollars for the whiskey, and seventy-five dollars for the horse.

• 1:20:42Speaker 03

  Gingers, oh hell no. This whiskey is excellent. Ginger. I like gingers.
