• 0:06Mark Normand?

  Hey, hey, Rain. We're on. We might be drunk. What's shaking?

• 0:09Sam Morril?

  Glad to have you, man.

• 0:10Speaker 02

  How's it going? We've been trying to set this up for a while.

• 0:13Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 0:14Speaker 02

  And I'm glad I'm here. Thanks. Thanks for having me.

• 0:17Mark Normand?

  Well, you're a busy guy.

• 0:18Sam Morril?

  I saw you at the US Open yesterday.

• 0:20Speaker 02

  Oh. Yeah, I was there. Yeah.

• 0:22Mark Normand?

  You were sitting with Trump?

• 0:23Speaker 02

  I was. Yeah, I was in the Rolex box.

• 0:28Speaker 02

  You guys are very scruffy. Is that part of your deal?

• 0:31Sam Morril?

  You are too.

• 0:31Speaker 02

  Kind of your look? A little bit. As you notice, I went with the, like, the goatee and it's very carefully...

• 0:38Sam Morril?

  This would fly in the New York Yankees. This would not.

• 0:41Speaker 02

  No?

• 0:41Sam Morril?

  No, because you can't be, you can't be dirty shaven. It has to be, like, groomed.

• 0:46Speaker 02

  You have to have, like, a, like, a choice, like, a conscious kind of beard look.

• 0:51Mark Normand?

  Yeah, you saw the Simpsons episode. Remember that one?

• 0:54Speaker 02

  What's happening? We're looking at Trump at the...

• 0:55Mark Normand?

  The Open.

• 0:56Speaker 02

  The Open.

• 0:58Mark Normand?

  Oh. Well, that's a mint. Or a Viagra. The Viagra is blue.

• 1:05Speaker 02

  Popping a pill. That's, that's interesting.

• 1:08Mark Normand?

  God, it would suck to be this, this much on camera.

• 1:10Sam Morril?

  This scrutinized?

• 1:11Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 1:12Speaker 02

  I read the New York Times headline and they were like, "Some booze and some cheers for Trump at US Open." And I was there. I did not hear a single cheer.

• 1:23Speaker 02

  Thirty thousand people booing. That's all I heard. And I was just right there.

• 1:28Sam Morril?

  Anymore.

• 1:29Speaker 02

  Not anymore. But that's, I mean, he's born and raised, like, a couple miles...

• 1:34Sam Morril?

  Right there, yeah.

• 1:34Speaker 02

  From Forest Hills.

• 1:36Mark Normand?

  That's right.

• 1:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:37Mark Normand?

  Forest Hills, quite the alumni. Simon and Garfunkel, Trump, and Billy Eichner.

• 1:42Sam Morril?

  The big three.

• 1:45Speaker 02

  Here's, here's another fun fact is, I just watched that Billy Joel documentary.

• 1:49Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 1:50Speaker 02

  So good, right?

• 1:50Sam Morril?

  Talking about it.

• 1:51Speaker 02

  Oh, my God. And I had Billy Joel songs stuck in my head for, like, weeks afterwards.

• 1:56Mark Normand?

  Tried to be a big shot, dude.

• 1:57Speaker 02

  I left my AirPods in a cab. And you know he had the Find My iPhone?

• 2:02Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 2:03Speaker 02

  So I was tracking them as they were going. And I didn't have the receipt, so I didn't have the driver. I didn't even know which cab. And they ended up in Hicksville.

• 2:10Mark Normand?

  Hey.

• 2:11Speaker 02

  Birthplace of Billy Joel.

• 2:12Mark Normand?

  How about that?

• 2:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, so somewhere, I hope, uh, some relative of Billy Joel is enjoying my AirPods.

• 2:19Mark Normand?

  No, AirPods are tough because you're like, I want them, but I could just buy a new one. It's not enough money to go to Hicksville.

• 2:26Speaker 02

  Exactly.

• 2:26Mark Normand?

  So I guess you bought new ones.

• 2:28Speaker 02

  I thought about it. I need to buy some new ones. So actually, with the money I make doing this podcast.

• 2:33Sam Morril?

  Yes.

• 2:33Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 2:34Sam Morril?

  Big money.

• 2:35Mark Normand?

  I thought you were paying us.

• 2:39Speaker 02

  What's going on, guys? How's it going? How's the world of podcasting? You guys been, five years you've been doing this thing?

• 2:43Sam Morril?

  Have we?

• 2:44Mark Normand?

  No.

• 2:45Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 2:46Sam Morril?

  My God, what the fuck?

• 2:48Mark Normand?

  Man.

• 2:48Sam Morril?

  God.

• 2:49Mark Normand?

  Flying by. Good lord. I didn't know that.

• 2:52Speaker 02

  But you know, you gotta have this down.

• 2:54Mark Normand?

  Oh, thanks.

• 2:54Speaker 02

  We're not covering your face.

• 2:56Mark Normand?

  Still learning. Nobody wants to see this mug. Two fifty.

• 3:00Sam Morril?

  Wow.

• 3:01Speaker 02

  And folks who are watching at home, they're not drunk.

• 3:04Mark Normand?

  No, it's early.

• 3:05Sam Morril?

  You wanted noon.

• 3:06Speaker 02

  They're not, they're not drunk.

• 3:08Mark Normand?

  We're hungover, if that helps.

• 3:09Speaker 02

  Okay.

• 3:09Mark Normand?

  Okay.

• 3:10Sam Morril?

  Tough weekend.

• 3:11Speaker 02

  Again, it's covering your face. You have an awesome face.

• 3:15Mark Normand?

  No, what are you, my aunt?

• 3:16Speaker 02

  It's like the naughty boy next door. You want to just get it right.

• 3:19Mark Normand?

  There we go.

• 3:20Sam Morril?

  You, uh, what are you in town for specifically? Was it the US Open or what?

• 3:27Speaker 02

  Do you care? Do you really care?

• 3:28Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I do.

• 3:28Mark Normand?

  Well, what's that ticket go for also?

• 3:30Speaker 02

  All right.

• 3:31Sam Morril?

  Yeah, was that, did you pay for that ticket or was that a, was that a comp?

• 3:33Speaker 02

  Here, here's the deal.

• 3:34Sam Morril?

  Double.

• 3:34Speaker 02

  Here's the deal. We've got some stuff to get into.

• 3:36Mark Normand?

  Yes, we do.

• 3:38Speaker 02

  My celebrity star is seriously waning.

• 3:43Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 3:43Speaker 02

  It's okay. It's okay.

• 3:45Sam Morril?

  I don't think we could have gotten you when you were on The Office.

• 3:48Speaker 02

  That's so not true.

• 3:49Sam Morril?

  Really?

• 3:50Mark Normand?

  Oh, come on, Rainey.

• 3:52Speaker 02

  Yeah. But I used to be able to get tickets, like, to everything.

• 3:57Mark Normand?

  Got it.

• 3:58Speaker 02

  You know, and now it's kind of like, oh, hey, I'm going to the US Open. Here's some days I could go. Can I get? My publicists are like, yeah, there's not really any tickets available. It's like, wait a second. Wait a second. If Krasinski was going, he would get tickets.

• 4:11Mark Normand?

  Correll.

• 4:12Speaker 02

  So Correll would get tickets, like that, in a heartbeat.

• 4:15Mark Normand?

  Mm-hmm.

• 4:15Speaker 02

  Uh, so I had to whore myself. I went on Seth Meyers and... And I joked about this very thing and talked about tickets for the US Open. I knew it would work and sure enough, the next day, like, someone at the Open saw you on staff. And we got you tickets to the president's box.

• 4:33Mark Normand?

  Wow, what a great idea.

• 4:35Speaker 02

  Yeah, so I degraded myself.

• 4:38Mark Normand?

  No, that's a finagle.

• 4:41Sam Morril?

  Who were you close to in there?

• 4:43Speaker 02

  What?

• 4:43Sam Morril?

  In the box?

• 4:45Speaker 02

  I was, oh, it was kind of fun. Martha Stewart.

• 4:49Mark Normand?

  Hey, still sexy.

• 4:51Sam Morril?

  Yeah, were you still?

• 4:52Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 4:53Sam Morril?

  Eighty, was she eighty-two?

• 4:54Mark Normand?

  Oh, I'd imagine that breakfast in the morning.

• 4:55Sam Morril?

  That'd be a good one.

• 4:56Speaker 02

  She's still a looker. She's got it.

• 4:59Mark Normand?

  Oh, BJ.

• 4:59Sam Morril?

  Former model.

• 5:00Speaker 02

  Yeah, Mindy and BJ were there. Ben Stiller, Hugh Jackman was there.

• 5:04Mark Normand?

  Geez.

• 5:06Speaker 02

  Anna Wintour.

• 5:07Sam Morril?

  Look at you. You look good, man.

• 5:09Speaker 02

  Oh, thanks.

• 5:09Mark Normand?

  That's Hugh Jackman. I'm just kidding.

• 5:12Sam Morril?

  I like the look there. You gotta bring it for this. It's a real fashion showcase.

• 5:17Speaker 02

  It's a thing. Yeah, it's a thing. But yeah, and I went to Wimbledon too, but I had to do the same thing and I didn't get.

• 5:23Sam Morril?

  You went on Graham Norton and you're like, please.

• 5:26Speaker 02

  I didn't do it. I didn't do a talk show. I got tickets through Wimbledon, but all the big stars get tickets in what's called like the King's, the Royal Box. So it's like, I was there.

• 5:37Sam Morril?

  Martha Stewart's vagina?

• 5:39Speaker 02

  The Royal Box?

• 5:40Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 5:40Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 5:41Sam Morril?

  Pretty special.

• 5:41Speaker 02

  Megan's vagina, yeah. The, so I was way up in like the 200 level and over I could see over there is like, oh, there's Matthew McConaughey. It's like, you know, it's welcome to the level of B-list celebrities.

• 5:59Sam Morril?

  Dude, you're, we're not just saying this, that character's forever.

• 6:04Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 6:04Sam Morril?

  You killed it.

• 6:05Mark Normand?

  One of the greats.

• 6:06Speaker 02

  I.

• 6:07Sam Morril?

  Everyone loves that. If people see you, I'm sure they still freak the hell out.

• 6:11Speaker 02

  They do. I mean, it's amazing. And The Office is crazy. It's the gift that keeps on giving. Like, it's like, it doesn't, it doesn't, The Office doesn't wane, you know what I mean?

• 6:20Mark Normand?

  No.

• 6:21Speaker 02

  There's still like so many like 12 and 13 year olds or college kids or whatever and they're like, oh my God, my favorite character. It's amazing. I can't believe that.

• 6:32Mark Normand?

  Dwight Schrute and Kramer, and then after his set, I feel like you went up.

• 6:37Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 6:38Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 6:38Sam Morril?

  Cause you haven't had a racist meltdown yet.

• 6:40Speaker 02

  I haven't had a racist meltdown.

• 6:41Sam Morril?

  Yet.

• 6:43Speaker 02

  The day is young, could be the place to do it.

• 6:46Sam Morril?

  My sister doesn't laugh at anything and Dwight Schrute got her.

• 6:50Speaker 02

  There we go.

• 6:50Sam Morril?

  She doesn't like, there's not one joke I've ever made that she was like, that was good, but Dwight Schrute, she's like, that's, this is.

• 6:56Speaker 02

  Nice, that's good taste.

• 6:58Sam Morril?

  Yeah, she does.

• 6:58Speaker 02

  Is she hot?

• 7:03Speaker 02

  Is she a stubble?

• 7:04Sam Morril?

  Man's gonna blame my sister, god damn it. She is stubble.

• 7:07Speaker 02

  Oh.

• 7:08Sam Morril?

  She does.

• 7:09Speaker 02

  It's a new day.

• 7:09Sam Morril?

  But.

• 7:10Speaker 02

  But I'm here this week, cause I've got a movie coming out. Code Three is coming out on Friday, September 12th. I don't know when this podcast is coming out, but, um, and it's me and Laurel Howery.

• 7:21Mark Normand?

  Oh, I love Laurel.

• 7:22Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I like him.

• 7:22Speaker 02

  And it's action comedy, but it's got some dramatic elements and it's about EMS workers and ambulance drivers, paramedics, kind of on a night from hell and, um, it's really good.

• 7:37Mark Normand?

  Great.

• 7:37Speaker 02

  Honestly, it's a really, really good little film.

• 7:40Mark Normand?

  I'm glad any comedy movie is being made.

• 7:42Sam Morril?

  Is it going to theaters or is it streaming?

• 7:44Speaker 02

  It's going to a hundred theater.

• 7:47Mark Normand?

  Okay.

• 7:48Sam Morril?

  Weird, right?

• 7:49Speaker 02

  Uh, it's going to a handful of theaters and then it's going to a smattering of theaters and then it'll be like you can video on demand after that.

• 7:57Mark Normand?

  Hell yeah.

• 7:57Speaker 02

  Some streaming place at some point, I'm not sure when.

• 8:00Mark Normand?

  Someone's gonna pick it up.

• 8:01Speaker 02

  Someone, well, but it's, it's terrific and Rel is great and, um, it was, we got a little bit of the, um, was it Gene Wilder?

• 8:10Mark Normand?

  What?

• 8:11Speaker 02

  Richard Pryor.

• 8:11Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 8:12Speaker 02

  Kind of vibe going.

• 8:14Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 8:15Speaker 02

  You know.

• 8:15Mark Normand?

  Silver streak.

• 8:16Speaker 02

  Silver streak.

• 8:17Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 8:17Speaker 02

  Yeah, so.

• 8:18Sam Morril?

  What's the other one? Stir Crazy?

• 8:20Mark Normand?

  Stir Crazy and Hear No Evil?

• 8:22Sam Morril?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 8:22Mark Normand?

  Something like that?

• 8:23Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 8:23Mark Normand?

  Yeah, they were quite the, they were the first black, white, fun team. Then you had another 48 Hours.

• 8:29Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 8:30Sam Morril?

  Dude, the first 48 Hours is so good.

• 8:32Mark Normand?

  Oh, it's incredible.

• 8:33Speaker 02

  Masterpiece.

• 8:34Sam Morril?

  That was on TV, it's like start to finish, you just watch.

• 8:37Speaker 02

  It's one of those movies that comes on and you can't turn off. It's like Godfather. There's certain movies.

• 8:41Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 8:41Speaker 02

  Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

• 8:43Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 8:44Speaker 02

  You're just not changing the channel.

• 8:46Sam Morril?

  Dude, Pulp Fiction started the other day and I'm like, fuck, I'm, midnight when it started, I was like, I guess I'm watching it.

• 8:52Speaker 02

  I'm hooked.

• 8:52Mark Normand?

  TBS had a string when I was in high school. They'd play The Breakfast Club, then they'd play Shawshank, and then they'd play, uh.

• 8:58Speaker 02

  Shawshank.

• 8:59Mark Normand?

  What?

• 9:00Sam Morril?

  Wow.

• 9:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, I really don't like Shawshank.

• 9:02Sam Morril?

  I don't love it as much as everyone, I like it, but I don't love it like.

• 9:05Speaker 02

  I don't.

• 9:06Mark Normand?

  What's not to love?

• 9:08Sam Morril?

  It's, it is.

• 9:08Mark Normand?

  It's long.

• 9:09Sam Morril?

  It's funny that it's such a re-watch, because it is miserable. Like, the whole time, you're like, he's just suffering.

• 9:13Mark Normand?

  That's true.

• 9:14Sam Morril?

  You need that for the ending, I guess.

• 9:16Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 9:16Speaker 02

  The tone is so weird. It's kind of like, there's a rape in it, right? There's like a prison rape in it.

• 9:22Mark Normand?

  Sure.

• 9:23Speaker 02

  The whole thing is like.

• 9:24Mark Normand?

  It's a male rape.

• 9:25Speaker 02

  Guy's name, what's Tim Robbins' name, like?

• 9:27Mark Normand?

  Dufresne.

• 9:27Sam Morril?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 9:28Speaker 02

  Like, Andy Dufresne collected all the tin cups from the cafeteria. And then there's like a prison rape, and you're like, what the hell is going on here?

• 9:37Mark Normand?

  Well, they kept it real, it was gritty.

• 9:39Speaker 02

  But it, no, but it's like a, it's like a fantasy fable. It's like.

• 9:42Mark Normand?

  With a rape.

• 9:43Speaker 02

  This is, my son is 20, and this is what they would call a hot take. Hot take.

• 9:47Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 9:48Speaker 02

  Shawshank Redemption sucks.

• 9:50Mark Normand?

  Damn.

• 9:52Sam Morril?

  This is gonna anger the comments, I think.

• 9:53Mark Normand?

  That's the title of the app.

• 9:55Speaker 02

  Yep, right there.

• 9:56Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 9:56Sam Morril?

  Apparently, they changed the ending, too. Apparently, it wasn't, they weren't supposed to come together again. But the audience needed something after being put through all that shit.

• 10:04Mark Normand?

  Sure, sure. And he was supposed to be, uh, Morgan Freeman's supposed to be an Irish guy.

• 10:09Sam Morril?

  Really?

• 10:09Mark Normand?

  But he killed the audition.

• 10:11Speaker 02

  Well.

• 10:11Mark Normand?

  The name's red.

• 10:12Speaker 02

  It's one of the greats.

• 10:13Sam Morril?

  What's, are there any other classics that you're like, fuck that movie?

• 10:16Speaker 02

  Yeah, I got another one.

• 10:16Sam Morril?

  Please.

• 10:17Speaker 02

  Goonies.

• 10:18Sam Morril?

  Wow.

• 10:19Mark Normand?

  I'm with you on Goonies.

• 10:20Speaker 02

  Sucks.

• 10:20Mark Normand?

  It's all nostalgia.

• 10:21Speaker 02

  It sucks.

• 10:22Sam Morril?

  It's got great moments.

• 10:23Mark Normand?

  That's it.

• 10:23Sam Morril?

  The ending, they, I did, they do a thing that bugs me at the end, where it's like, there's like four times they try to make you cry. They're like, we're keeping the house. You're like, just, they, they made it out alive, that should be enough.

• 10:32Mark Normand?

  Right, right.

• 10:33Speaker 02

  But if you watch it again, all it is, is 12-year-olds screaming at each other.

• 10:38Mark Normand?

  That's true.

• 10:39Speaker 02

  It's 90 minutes, like, why are you doing this?

• 10:42Sam Morril?

  But there's some pretty joyful moments in it.

• 10:44Mark Normand?

  And Chunk is now an entertainment lawyer.

• 10:46Sam Morril?

  He's, yeah, our buddy, Ida Rodriguez, he's her lawyer.

• 10:49Mark Normand?

  That's right, how cute is that?

• 10:50Speaker 02

  What's the name of the weird guy with the weird face?

• 10:53Mark Normand?

  Uh, uh, Sloth.

• 10:55Speaker 02

  Yeah, Sloth. So, someone once compared me to Sloth. And I will say that there is a little bit.

• 11:03Mark Normand?

  I think he nailed it. I was drunk on Reddit. It's a long story.

• 11:06Speaker 02

  You could find some sloth.

• 11:08Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 11:09Sam Morril?

  Nah, I don't think so.

• 11:10Mark Normand?

  Did you ever get women, because my wife is weirdly attracted to you? And did you ever get like the weird-

• 11:15Sam Morril?

  By the way, are you offended by someone saying that they're weirdly attracted to you?

• 11:18Mark Normand?

  Well, the character, the character.

• 11:19Sam Morril?

  Oh, okay.

• 11:20Speaker 02

  Wait, attracted to Dwight?

• 11:21Mark Normand?

  Yeah, she's just like, he was so sure of himself and confident that that was kinda hot.

• 11:25Sam Morril?

  There was a swag to Dwight.

• 11:26Speaker 02

  Yeah, he had, he had a swag. I, I love that he was so weird looking, but,

• 11:31Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 11:31Speaker 02

  um, you're, you're trying to find sloth parallels.

• 11:38Sam Morril?

  I'm weirdly attracted to you.

• 11:39Speaker 02

  Double chin, it's kind of crooked face, I don't know, there's something there.

• 11:42Mark Normand?

  Nick Nolte mugshot on the right, those little titties.

• 11:45Speaker 02

  And I got my teeth fixed, so before my teeth were a little crookedy.

• 11:48Mark Normand?

  Uh huh, looks like Rihanna.

• 11:50Speaker 02

  So.

• 11:51Mark Normand?

  Alright, I gotta stop making that joke.

• 11:54Speaker 02

  Anyway, this is really distracting.

• 11:56Sam Morril?

  There's one a week.

• 11:57Mark Normand?

  There's one a week.

• 11:58Sam Morril?

  It's whether I say noir first or Mark makes the Rihanna joke.

• 12:01Mark Normand?

  Well, there's only one fat lady, Lizzo. There's only one lady who got beat up.

• 12:04Sam Morril?

  There's more than one fat lady.

• 12:05Mark Normand?

  Alright, I had him in college. Sorry, what were you saying?

• 12:08Speaker 02

  Is your wife hot?

• 12:10Mark Normand?

  She's very pretty.

• 12:10Sam Morril?

  She's hot, yeah.

• 12:11Mark Normand?

  Postpartum.

• 12:13Speaker 02

  Okay, I like that.

• 12:14Sam Morril?

  Yeah, low self-esteem right now, it's the perfect time to get in.

• 12:16Mark Normand?

  Yes, ample bosom.

• 12:18Speaker 02

  But I love that Dwight was so weird and yet the writers were smart enough to make him like, let's, let's have him hook up a lot. This is, this is gonna be fun.

• 12:28Sam Morril?

  Oh, there's that episode where you, you grab that hot chick on the road when you do the traveling.

• 12:33Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 12:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah.

• 12:34Sam Morril?

  I mean, that was great. And then you're annoyed that she's staying around. I loved that.

• 12:37Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's, that's, that was, that was a lot of fun, yeah.

• 12:42Mark Normand?

  But you must've gotten some, uh, crazy letters from nutty broads out there.

• 12:47Sam Morril?

  Was it all social media? Letters is still a thing?

• 12:49Mark Normand?

  I guess, yeah, that's true.

• 12:51Speaker 02

  Yeah, with written in quell pens.

• 12:54Mark Normand?

  By candlelight.

• 12:56Speaker 02

  Yeah, sure, yeah, get, get some weirdos and, and stuff like that, but, um, you know, my wife and I, we, we just did thirty, thirty years.

• 13:05Mark Normand?

  Woo!

• 13:07Sam Morril?

  Damn.

• 13:08Mark Normand?

  My lord, and your son is twenty.

• 13:10Speaker 02

  We've been, uh, longer, uh, married longer than you guys have been alive.

• 13:14Mark Normand?

  No, we're old.

• 13:15Sam Morril?

  We're not that-

• 13:16Mark Normand?

  Older.

• 13:16Speaker 02

  I know that. Very well know that, you're older than thirty.

• 13:20Mark Normand?

  So you had a baby at thirty?

• 13:24Speaker 02

  So I was, um, my wife was 40, I was 38 when he was born.

• 13:29Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 13:30Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 13:30Mark Normand?

  Alright. That seems to be the white way now.

• 13:33Speaker 02

  Yeah, it is. It's like.

• 13:34Sam Morril?

  It's a showbiz way. You gotta make a career first.

• 13:37Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 13:37Mark Normand?

  Mm-hmm.

• 13:38Speaker 02

  Career first, family second, wait till the last possible moment.

• 13:41Mark Normand?

  You got that right.

• 13:42Speaker 02

  It all worked out.

• 13:43Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 13:44Speaker 02

  You guys have kids?

• 13:45Mark Normand?

  I got a baby.

• 13:46Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, yeah.

• 13:47Mark Normand?

  But I'm from the south, so a lot of my friends had kids at 21, 22, and now their kids are out the house. And I'm deep in baby shit and screaming, and I'm like, oh, maybe that was right, because now they're living high on the hog. And they're 40.

• 13:59Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 14:01Sam Morril?

  I am jealous of those people. They got it out of the way.

• 14:03Mark Normand?

  They got it done.

• 14:03Sam Morril?

  We were having fun.

• 14:04Mark Normand?

  We had a lot of fun. I wish I remembered it. We had fun.

• 14:08Sam Morril?

  Not a lot of memories.

• 14:10Mark Normand?

  No.

• 14:10Sam Morril?

  Pictures, though. We look happy.

• 14:12Mark Normand?

  Yeah, we should check CCTV footage. I bet we'd catch up a little.

• 14:16Speaker 02

  So what's going on in the world of comedy these days? You know, a lot of like, uh, are you guys lumped in with like the podcast bro kind of crowd?

• 14:24Mark Normand?

  We can dabble. We dip a toe in, we come out, we go back in, you know, you promote something.

• 14:28Speaker 02

  You're getting a lot of flack for like, the kind of podcast bros leaning right.

• 14:34Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 14:35Speaker 02

  Trumpy a little bit and.

• 14:37Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 14:37Mark Normand?

  I think there's too much politics looped in with comedy now. It's very strange.

• 14:41Sam Morril?

  Yeah, we don't really, we don't really dabble too much on that because we didn't get into this to tell people how to vote. This is like observational comedy.

• 14:50Mark Normand?

  Yeah, I don't wanna.

• 14:52Sam Morril?

  I think you leak. I think people know where we stand, but we try not to hammer it because there's enough people doing that.

• 14:58Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 14:58Sam Morril?

  Every comic thinks they're like, every comic thinks they're like a geopolitical expert now.

• 15:02Mark Normand?

  I know.

• 15:03Sam Morril?

  Middle East, I'm like, do we have to weigh in on everything?

• 15:06Mark Normand?

  Yeah. Let's go back to talk about midgets and queefs and not a foreign policy.

• 15:11Speaker 02

  You can't say midgets, see?

• 15:13Mark Normand?

  Sorry.

• 15:13Speaker 02

  You just showed your.

• 15:15Mark Normand?

  Well, see, now you're politicizing midgets.

• 15:17Speaker 02

  You see, you have to say little people.

• 15:19Sam Morril?

  Hmm.

• 15:19Mark Normand?

  Ah, but we've had a couple of midges on.

• 15:22Sam Morril?

  Yeah?

• 15:22Mark Normand?

  So, we'll talk to, let's ask them.

• 15:25Speaker 02

  We are all so canceled right now.

• 15:26Mark Normand?

  Well, it's like, I don't think black people like African-American.

• 15:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, that might be true.

• 15:31Mark Normand?

  Uh huh, so maybe the mid-

• 15:33Sam Morril?

  It'll come, Midrill will come back.

• 15:34Mark Normand?

  It's coming back.

• 15:35Sam Morril?

  It'll come back.

• 15:36Speaker 02

  Alright, fair enough.

• 15:37Mark Normand?

  But, yeah, yeah.

• 15:38Sam Morril?

  Pull up the, yeah, that-

• 15:39Mark Normand?

  Oh geez.

• 15:40Sam Morril?

  Oh boy.

• 15:41Speaker 03

  This guy was on Last Comic Standing, I think he won.

• 15:44Sam Morril?

  He won?

• 15:45Mark Normand?

  Is that right?

• 15:45Speaker 03

  Maybe he was runner up, but he-

• 15:47Sam Morril?

  Damn, was that the prize?

• 15:49Mark Normand?

  Now he's dead man walking.

• 15:50Sam Morril?

  Crazy.

• 15:51Speaker 02

  I could play him in The Maid for-

• 15:53Mark Normand?

  Ahhh! You could!

• 15:56Speaker 02

  If any producers are watching right now, an actor to play John Reap.

• 16:00Mark Normand?

  See, one man's downfall is another man's role.

• 16:04Speaker 02

  How do I profit?

• 16:04Sam Morril?

  We're gonna see that headshot at the Virginia Beach Funny Bone soon, too.

• 16:09Sam Morril?

  Coming soon.

• 16:10Mark Normand?

  Damn, that's crazy.

• 16:11Sam Morril?

  That's crazy.

• 16:12Speaker 02

  That's terrible.

• 16:13Sam Morril?

  Yeah, that's a, I remember him on Eastbound and Down, he was funny on that.

• 16:16Mark Normand?

  Yeah, he's a funny guy.

• 16:17Sam Morril?

  That's, that's not good. You gotta not do that.

• 16:21Mark Normand?

  Well, now, if we're not doing that, maybe we're, we look like, but we look better.

• 16:26Sam Morril?

  If we're not-

• 16:27Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 16:27Sam Morril?

  Child pornography?

• 16:28Mark Normand?

  Well, people associate comics with this guy.

• 16:31Speaker 02

  I hope not.

• 16:32Mark Normand?

  Oh fuck, alright.

• 16:34Sam Morril?

  I hope, I hope that's how that goes. Are you a comedian? You're in a, you like children, right?

• 16:39Speaker 02

  Do you like his act mark?

• 16:41Mark Normand?

  Uh, I like his later work. No, no, no. Uh, I, I thought, yeah, I thought he was a funny guy, and he was very nice when I met him, but I was a child. So, no.

• 16:51Speaker 02

  He was on a playground.

• 16:55Mark Normand?

  But yeah, damn. Now, I never know what that means. Does he get caught with porn? Did he log into a site?

• 17:00Sam Morril?

  I don't know what child pornogra-, like, yeah, like, you don't know who has magazines anymore, so it must have been digital, right?

• 17:06Mark Normand?

  By the way, the porn is all library and hobos now. That's it.

• 17:09Sam Morril?

  Really? You mean the library's all porn and hobos?

• 17:12Mark Normand?

  What did I say?

• 17:12Sam Morril?

  The library's all-

• 17:13Speaker 02

  You said the porn is all library.

• 17:14Mark Normand?

  Oh, sorry. The library's all porn and hobos.

• 17:17Speaker 02

  I do like library porn. And hobo porn. Hobos in a library porn. You seen that?

• 17:23Mark Normand?

  I guarantee that exists.

• 17:24Speaker 02

  Yeah, with the, uh, the bum, uh, soaked in his own urine, kinda giving it to the librarian. He's gotta do it really quietly.

• 17:33Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 17:34Sam Morril?

  This is a peeve. The, the paywall, you can't give me one free article on the child molester?

• 17:39Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 17:40Sam Morril?

  I gotta pay for this? You know his family's like, "Well, we wanna know. I guess I gotta subscribe to them. I am Harold." It's crazy.

• 17:48Mark Normand?

  Harold and Kumar.

• 17:51Speaker 03

  There it is. He's actually in that movie. He's in The Harold and Kumar.

• 17:53Mark Normand?

  Oh, that's right!

• 17:54Speaker 03

  Escape from Guantanamo Bay.

• 17:55Sam Morril?

  Whoa!

• 17:56Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 17:56Sam Morril?

  Well, at least he knows how to get out.

• 17:59Speaker 03

  One count, second degree sexual exploitation of a minor, nine counts, third degree sexual.

• 18:04Sam Morril?

  What is, what is the difference between second and third degree here? I don't even, I know nothing.

• 18:08Speaker 03

  I don't want to Google that, but.

• 18:10Mark Normand?

  Now, does that mean he took the pics? Cause now, I don't know where, if he took the pics, now we got a real problem. If he looked at a pic, maybe he was curious.

• 18:17Speaker 02

  Wait, he was in Netflix's Brad Paisley's Comedy Rodeo? What is that? That's, that's a bunch of words I never thought I'd see together.

• 18:25Mark Normand?

  Yeah, right?

• 18:26Speaker 02

  Netflix, Brad Paisley and Comedy Rodeo.

• 18:28Sam Morril?

  There's a lot of stuff.

• 18:30Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 18:31Speaker 02

  Well, this, this got really dark and weird.

• 18:33Sam Morril?

  Sorry, yeah.

• 18:33Mark Normand?

  Sorry.

• 18:34Speaker 03

  Yeah, let's bring it back.

• 18:35Mark Normand?

  Oh, there it is.

• 18:36Sam Morril?

  Who else was on there? Do we know anyone?

• 18:38Mark Normand?

  Is that Nate?

• 18:40Speaker 03

  Yes, it is.

• 18:40Sam Morril?

  Oh my god, Bargazzi.

• 18:42Speaker 03

  Standing right next to him.

• 18:43Mark Normand?

  Alright, we should change the subject.

• 18:47Mark Normand?

  Woo, what were they riding, a five-year-old? Alright, let's, uh...

• 18:51Sam Morril?

  Nate, you can bring kids to his shows, you sure he was trying to open them? Like, you got any work?

• 18:57Mark Normand?

  Woo, boy, I'm funny.

• 18:59Speaker 02

  Thank god it wasn't called Comedy Playground.

• 19:03Sam Morril?

  I just saw Nate on CBS Sunday Morning, they did a whole thing on him, it was, it was amazing, it was great.

• 19:07Speaker 03

  He's hosting the Emmys this weekend.

• 19:09Mark Normand?

  Oh, that's right, man, he is in the mix.

• 19:12Sam Morril?

  He's killing it.

• 19:12Mark Normand?

  He is mainstream, that guy.

• 19:14Sam Morril?

  So, I, you're great on Entourage also, by the way.

• 19:17Speaker 02

  Oh, thanks.

• 19:17Sam Morril?

  Great app.

• 19:18Speaker 02

  Speaking of, uh, porn.

• 19:21Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 19:21Speaker 02

  Those were actual porn stars.

• 19:22Sam Morril?

  That was a porn episode.

• 19:23Speaker 02

  And the, and the young woman who was the lead in that episode of Entourage, I think she, she died.

• 19:29Sam Morril?

  Right, I read that.

• 19:30Speaker 02

  Yeah, it was really tragic.

• 19:31Mark Normand?

  Oh, no.

• 19:32Sam Morril?

  Damn.

• 19:32Speaker 02

  Yeah, so, um, I don't know.

• 19:35Mark Normand?

  I've met a few porn stars in my day and I'm always upset that they're, I'm like, why are you blowing me? You're a porn star. Do you ever have that feeling? You know, when you meet a comic and you're like, why aren't you funny?

• 19:45Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 19:46Mark Normand?

  I guess it's the same thing.

• 19:47Speaker 02

  I'm getting that right now.

• 19:51Mark Normand?

  Well played, well played. You still got it.

• 19:55Speaker 02

  Thanks.

• 19:55Mark Normand?

  See? That's why you get these Wimbledon tickets.

• 19:57Speaker 02

  I'm known for my crowd work.

• 20:01Mark Normand?

  All right. Well, yeah, I'm just saying. Porn stars, they give off that energy.

• 20:05Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 20:06Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 20:08Speaker 02

  I, I don't ever, I don't, I don't, if I'm around a porn star, I don't like assume that they're gonna like have sex with me.

• 20:17Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 20:17Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 20:18Mark Normand?

  I guess that's all I know of them, so.

• 20:21Speaker 02

  Right, that's how you know them.

• 20:22Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 20:23Speaker 02

  It's your way in.

• 20:24Mark Normand?

  Exactly. You still doing the porn?

• 20:27Speaker 02

  I'm off the porn.

• 20:28Mark Normand?

  Whoa.

• 20:29Speaker 02

  Oh, yeah, yeah.

• 20:30Mark Normand?

  Good on you.

• 20:31Speaker 02

  I went, I went off the porn. I had some porn issues, you know, with the advent of internet porn, especially like early 2000s. And I was like, this is, you know, this is, uh, this is not good for my mental health.

• 20:43Mark Normand?

  It's not good.

• 20:43Sam Morril?

  Time management thing too. Like if I just get it out of the way, I'll be, it'll be, the day will be easier.

• 20:48Mark Normand?

  That's how I do it.

• 20:49Speaker 02

  Yeah. But, you know.

• 20:50Mark Normand?

  Quick.

• 20:50Speaker 02

  You know, minutes can turn into hours.

• 20:52Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 20:53Speaker 02

  And, you know, and you can like, it can really demotivate you and also just, it just made me feel shitty about myself.

• 21:02Sam Morril?

  You never, you never nut when you're watching that and you're like, that was, that was good.

• 21:06Mark Normand?

  All right.

• 21:06Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're never like, oh, I'm so glad I.

• 21:08Sam Morril?

  Especially John Reap. The guy's probably like, oh, fuck, oh, god.

• 21:12Mark Normand?

  Ooh, you reap what you sow. But, yeah, you know, porn, I look at porn like an espresso shot. I just knock it out. I'm not sitting there with the fucking beaker and. Huh?

• 21:22Sam Morril?

  I don't feel energized from it. I feel like, I, I'm also, I don't like that I'm, like, I, look, I don't watch it a ton, but I watch enough still to be like, ah, that was not, uh, I don't want that to be what I'm attracted to.

• 21:32Mark Normand?

  Sure, sure, yeah.

• 21:34Sam Morril?

  You start to just like.

• 21:35Speaker 02

  What does, what does your wife think about, uh, porn news? Cause I kind of feel also like, you know, when I was, when I was in that, I was kind of like, I really should be, especially as I was, as I am rapidly aging, just kind of like, that energy should be for my beloved.

• 21:50Mark Normand?

  But what if you're on the road, I'm on the road all the time, so I just knock it out now.

• 21:54Speaker 02

  Face time.

• 21:55Mark Normand?

  Eh.

• 21:55Sam Morril?

  And you rub one out to your wife?

• 21:56Speaker 02

  It's the same thing, it's a video image.

• 21:58Sam Morril?

  Your boobies.

• 22:00Mark Normand?

  I know those tits, though.

• 22:01Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 22:02Mark Normand?

  I've been to that neighborhood. I want to see, uh, something new.

• 22:06Speaker 02

  And she's cool with that.

• 22:07Mark Normand?

  Wow, I think she rubs out her stuff.

• 22:10Sam Morril?

  Does she watch porn?

• 22:12Mark Normand?

  She doesn't watch, she watches, uh, Forensic Files and goes to town.

• 22:15Sam Morril?

  That's good stuff.

• 22:16Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 22:17Speaker 02

  Listens to True Crime Podcast.

• 22:19Mark Normand?

  Well, women are different. I don't think they need the visual. She just needs the vibe.

• 22:22Sam Morril?

  I've had women say, well, like, well, let's watch it together. I'm like, watch it together?

• 22:25Mark Normand?

  Yeah, that's weird.

• 22:27Sam Morril?

  What is it, the fucking honeymooners? No, I'm watching, I want to watch, that's private. I don't want you to know, but then you're like, you should know. That's a weird thing.

• 22:34Mark Normand?

  Both shows, they're getting hit. But yeah, um, no, I don't want to, yeah.

• 22:38Speaker 02

  Rihanna.

• 22:42Mark Normand?

  Yeah, no, I'm with you though. I don't want to watch it with you. This is my own thing. It's like, it's like, uh, I want to eat cake alone. I don't want to eat cake with you.

• 22:48Sam Morril?

  It's like when women want to play video games with you and you're like, no, no, no, this is my time.

• 22:51Mark Normand?

  Yes, better example than cake.

• 22:54Speaker 03

  Sam, were you old enough to have wank to a VHS tape?

• 22:57Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I had a couple.

• 23:00Speaker 02

  I used to do, when I was, uh, coming of age and discovered this world, there was the, this was the early eighties when you could try to get HBO or Showtime or Cinemax, something like that, and it would have the wavy lines, but occasionally it would get

• 23:16Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah. I remember that.

• 23:18Speaker 02

  And you could get like five to 15 seconds of boobies.

• 23:24Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 23:24Speaker 02

  So you'd kind of like be jiggling the TV channel and jiggling yourself and waiting for that, just waiting for that. Perfect.

• 23:32Mark Normand?

  Hundred percent. The squiggle porn, we called it.

• 23:34Speaker 02

  Yeah, it was porn was so hard in the, that's what she said, in the seventies and eighties, it was so, there was so much work involved. There we go.

• 23:42Mark Normand?

  That was it.

• 23:43Sam Morril?

  Remember Robin Byrd, dude? Oh, yeah. Was that just, was that just a New York thing? Yes. Robin Byrd was like this woman that would come on After Dark on Channel 35, and she was just like an older lady who wasn't particularly great looking, but her tits were always out, and as a kid, you're like, this is incredible.

• 23:59Mark Normand?

  Oh, really?

• 24:00Speaker 02

  Oh, I vaguely remember that.

• 24:01Mark Normand?

  We had Rhonda Sheer, I think.

• 24:02Speaker 02

  I like that you Googled Robin Byrd and then a bunch of Robins came up.

• 24:06Mark Normand?

  This guy's a great Googler.

• 24:09Speaker 02

  Yeah, oh, that's hot.

• 24:10Sam Morril?

  Yeah, dude, I was, I was, I was bird watching late at night, dude. That's what I was talking about.

• 24:15Mark Normand?

  Was that her?

• 24:17Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 24:17Mark Normand?

  Yikes. Boy, we were slumming, huh?

• 24:19Sam Morril?

  We were slumming, dude. I mean, back then, you'd take what you could get.

• 24:23Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 24:23Sam Morril?

  And you'd also find, you're like, I guess I like that.

• 24:25Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 24:26Sam Morril?

  Every once in a while, you're like, that's, you know.

• 24:28Mark Normand?

  Oh, remember Elvira? I would watch Elvira, watch the whole thing, just because she had cleavage.

• 24:31Speaker 02

  My, in my neighborhood.

• 24:33Sam Morril?

  She's a hottie.

• 24:33Mark Normand?

  She was pretty hot, yeah.

• 24:34Speaker 02

  And suburban.

• 24:34Sam Morril?

  She's still hot.

• 24:35Speaker 02

  She's still hot. She's like seventy-five. I did a comic book convention thing with Elvira. She's beautiful.

• 24:41Mark Normand?

  Really?

• 24:41Speaker 02

  And smart. She has a great memoir.

• 24:45Mark Normand?

  Oh, okay.

• 24:46Sam Morril?

  You guys have stories, right?

• 24:47Mark Normand?

  We'll give that a shout out.

• 24:48Sam Morril?

  Crazy stories.

• 24:49Speaker 02

  Wait, what's happening?

• 24:49Mark Normand?

  What the hell are you watching?

• 24:52Speaker 03

  TV when we were coming up.

• 24:53Mark Normand?

  Oh, wait a minute.

• 24:54Speaker 03

  Channel thirty-five.

• 24:55Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 24:56Speaker 02

  So no Vag, but just, yeah.

• 24:58Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 24:58Speaker 03

  She had new dancers on. It was the stripper.

• 25:00Sam Morril?

  Yeah, but you were literally flipping the channels and you'd go from like Mash to this.

• 25:03Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 25:05Sam Morril?

  Like, wait, what?

• 25:06Speaker 03

  Mash to Smash?

• 25:08Mark Normand?

  Oh, she's cute.

• 25:09Sam Morril?

  Yeah, she looked all right then. She looked, she looked good. I was wrong.

• 25:13Mark Normand?

  I'll tell you, you flip through in Europe. I've done gigs in Europe and you're just flipping through in Amsterdam and it's just Tits after eleven.

• 25:19Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 25:19Mark Normand?

  That's their, uh, that's their law.

• 25:21Speaker 02

  Tits after eleven. It's a good name for a podcast.

• 25:23Mark Normand?

  Yeah, that's true.

• 25:25Speaker 02

  My, my neighborhood is very communal about the porn and if anyone in the cul-de-sacs of suburban Seattle had some, we would hide it at a convenient, like a house.

• 25:35Sam Morril?

  I thought you meant now, by the way. I was like, damn, he's still, he's got a community. He's like, dude, watch this.

• 25:41Speaker 02

  Circa nineteen seventy-nine.

• 25:42Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 25:43Speaker 02

  You would hide it on the, in the same stump.

• 25:46Mark Normand?

  Oh, that's great.

• 25:47Speaker 02

  Or, uh, at like a house under construction.

• 25:50Mark Normand?

  Mm-hmm.

• 25:51Speaker 02

  Someone's shed and everyone knew where it was and like, oh, my Uncle Ronnie gave me one and, and you'd, you'd tell the guys like, hey, I put another one in the, in the stack.

• 25:58Mark Normand?

  Oh, that's beautiful.

• 25:59Speaker 02

  It was like a lending library.

• 26:01Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 26:01Speaker 02

  They were always like waterlogged. And, uh, you know, you couldn't get the pages apart from.

• 26:08Speaker 03

  It's not water.

• 26:09Speaker 02

  Water, from water, from rainwater.

• 26:11Mark Normand?

  And then with, with the VHS, you could tell where they kept rewinding it. It was right on the money shot. They're like, oh, this part's a little fuzzy.

• 26:19Mark Normand?

  Yeah, those were always colorful, too. It was like orange, or blue, or red.

• 26:22Sam Morril?

  Yeah, they popped.

• 26:23Mark Normand?

  Yeah, they really popped.

• 26:24Sam Morril?

  Good advertising.

• 26:25Mark Normand?

  It is.

• 26:26Sam Morril?

  It's like Fish Wife.

• 26:27Mark Normand?

  Yeah, yeah. Yeah, you're like, I don't want to watch The Big Chill, or whatever.

• 26:34Sam Morril?

  That's a big movie I don't like.

• 26:35Mark Normand?

  The Big Chill.

• 26:36Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 26:37Speaker 02

  I haven't, I saw it in like 1987, but I haven't seen it since then.

• 26:41Sam Morril?

  It's just like a lot of forced, like, it's another like, we're gonna try to make you cry and like, doing nothing.

• 26:46Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 26:47Sam Morril?

  Good soundtrack, though.

• 26:48Mark Normand?

  Good cast.

• 26:49Sam Morril?

  Good cast, good soundtrack.

• 26:50Speaker 02

  Another hot take, what do you, what do you think about Scarface?

• 26:54Sam Morril?

  I like it.

• 26:55Mark Normand?

  It's not a good movie, but it's fun.

• 26:56Sam Morril?

  It's fun as hell, dude. Oh, I love Brian De Palma, so I don't give a shit.

• 27:00Speaker 02

  I like his horror stuff.

• 27:02Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 27:03Mark Normand?

  Mm-hmm.

• 27:03Sam Morril?

  I love Body Double, too. That's trashy as hell, but it's fun.

• 27:06Speaker 02

  Body Double's great, but I don't know, Scarface, I tried to watch it.

• 27:10Sam Morril?

  It's ridiculous, but it's so fun.

• 27:12Mark Normand?

  It's a lot of fun.

• 27:13Sam Morril?

  I remember Mulaney had that bit back, about how like, my favorite movies, when people say, you know, A Godfather and Scarface, and he goes, that's like my favorite food is lobster and Skittles, you know? So, so I get it. It's not like, it shouldn't be in that category of movie, but it's so fun. Like, how do you, I don't know, like, look at that. It looks ridiculous.

• 27:33Mark Normand?

  It's over the top, it's crazy.

• 27:34Sam Morril?

  Robert Loggia, that kind of is.

• 27:36Mark Normand?

  Yeah, yeah, exactly. The giant mounds of coke. It's all comical.

• 27:41Sam Morril?

  Yeah, it's insane, and, you know, it's so over the top dramatic.

• 27:46Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah, and black people love it.

• 27:47Sam Morril?

  They do. Yeah, Cribs, it was like, you had to have that poster back in the day.

• 27:52Mark Normand?

  That's true, that's true.

• 27:53Sam Morril?

  Every rapper had a, every, every person had Scarface.

• 27:56Speaker 02

  I miss those days of MTV. You're referencing MTV Cribs, right?

• 28:02Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 28:02Speaker 02

  But remember when MTV, like, kind of determined culture?

• 28:07Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 28:07Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 28:08Speaker 02

  When you, like, everything was about, like, whether it's a music video, or Cribs, I'm forgetting all those, there was the dating shows, like,

• 28:16Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 28:16Speaker 02

  Like, everything was like, even through the early 2000s.

• 28:20Mark Normand?

  Sure.

• 28:20Speaker 02

  Through when The Office was starting, like, you would turn to MTV to kind of see, like,

• 28:24Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 28:25Speaker 02

  Where's the zeitgeist?

• 28:26Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 28:26Speaker 02

  What's going on with the kids these days?

• 28:28Sam Morril?

  The last thing they had was Catfish, right?

• 28:30Mark Normand?

  Catfish was big.

• 28:31Sam Morril?

  That was big.

• 28:31Speaker 02

  They have that one, um,

• 28:33Mark Normand?

  Teen Mom.

• 28:33Speaker 02

  Chanel East Coast.

• 28:36Mark Normand?

  I don't know that one.

• 28:36Sam Morril?

  Teen Mom was big.

• 28:38Speaker 02

  No, ridic- revidiculousness.

• 28:41Mark Normand?

  Oh, that was big.

• 28:42Sam Morril?

  That's still on.

• 28:43Mark Normand?

  Wow, I don't know what's big on it. Let me call John Reeve. I know he's.

• 28:48Mark Normand?

  Uh, yeah, that's, uh.

• 28:50Sam Morril?

  Boom Raiders.

• 28:50Speaker 02

  But what was, what was the heyday of the MTV shows?

• 28:54Mark Normand?

  I would say Teen Mom, all that stuff was big.

• 28:57Sam Morril?

  Jersey Shore. I've never seen one episode of that show.

• 29:00Mark Normand?

  Oh, it was fun. It was a lot of it.

• 29:02Speaker 02

  It was fun.

• 29:03Mark Normand?

  They were just banging.

• 29:03Speaker 02

  You like Scarfla-.

• 29:07Sam Morril?

  Remember Singled Out?

• 29:09Mark Normand?

  Singled Out.

• 29:09Speaker 02

  With Chris Hardwick.

• 29:11Sam Morril?

  Yeah, dude.

• 29:11Speaker 02

  And Carmen Electra.

• 29:12Mark Normand?

  And Jenny McCarthy before that.

• 29:14Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 29:14Mark Normand?

  I would rub one out to them. That's how little we had. They were in these skimpy outfits and I could get off to that.

• 29:20Speaker 02

  Look at him there. Oh, my God.

• 29:21Sam Morril?

  Oh, my God.

• 29:22Mark Normand?

  He was drinking a lot back then.

• 29:25Speaker 02

  I remember.

• 29:25Sam Morril?

  That was a 90s haircut, too.

• 29:27Mark Normand?

  Oh, for sure.

• 29:28Sam Morril?

  That parted down the side.

• 29:29Mark Normand?

  The butt cut, yeah. Wait, wait. You knew him drinking?

• 29:32Speaker 02

  Yeah, I knew him in his drinking days. I did House of a Thousand Corpses with him in, uh, 2000.

• 29:38Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 29:39Speaker 02

  2001.

• 29:39Sam Morril?

  What's that?

• 29:40Speaker 02

  House of a Thousand Corpses is a kind of classic cult horror film directed by Rob Zombie.

• 29:45Mark Normand?

  Whoa.

• 29:46Sam Morril?

  Oh, I've heard of this.

• 29:47Speaker 02

  Me and Chris Hardwick were the, uh, were like the young guys who got brutally slaughtered.

• 29:51Mark Normand?

  Hey, that's cool.

• 29:53Speaker 02

  It was fun. We had a blast.

• 29:54Sam Morril?

  Are you a big horror movie guy?

• 29:56Speaker 02

  I, I like horror, yeah. I like horror. I, I think nowadays, some of the best movies being made are horror. Do, do you see Weapons?

• 30:03Sam Morril?

  I'm, I gotta see it.

• 30:04Mark Normand?

  We're the only people in America who haven't seen it.

• 30:05Speaker 02

  Ah, yeah, yeah.

• 30:06Sam Morril?

  I was on the road.

• 30:07Speaker 02

  It's almost not a horror film. It's like, it's kind of a Tarantino supernatural thriller, great acting, you know? There is House of a Thousand Corpses.

• 30:17Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I'm dying to see it.

• 30:18Mark Normand?

  Me, too.

• 30:19Sam Morril?

  It was made by a comedian.

• 30:20Mark Normand?

  Really?

• 30:21Sam Morril?

  That guy was on like Whitest Kids You Know and stuff.

• 30:23Speaker 02

  Yeah, he's a sketch comic.

• 30:24Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 30:24Mark Normand?

  I didn't know that.

• 30:25Sam Morril?

  There, there is a lot of similarities. I mean, Jordan Peele gets it, you know, I mean.

• 30:29Mark Normand?

  It's all tension and then breaking it.

• 30:30Sam Morril?

  Yeah, release.

• 30:31Speaker 02

  Yeah, I, uh, I co-wrote a sci-fi horror script I'm trying to get off the ground to direct, actually.

• 30:37Mark Normand?

  Hey, okay.

• 30:39Sam Morril?

  Did you direct episodes of The Office?

• 30:40Speaker 02

  If there's any billionaires who have an extra 12 million dollars sitting around, please hit me up.

• 30:45Mark Normand?

  Hey.

• 30:45Speaker 02

  I did direct some Office, yeah.

• 30:47Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 30:48Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 30:48Mark Normand?

  You got US Open tickets on Seth Meyers. This show, that'll get you a billionaire.

• 30:53Speaker 02

  I don't think billionaires watch this show.

• 30:55Mark Normand?

  Ah, maybe they're kids.

• 30:57Sam Morril?

  I don't think billionaires are looking to invest in, in movies.

• 31:01Mark Normand?

  Yeah, true.

• 31:02Speaker 02

  You'd be surprised how many billionaires want to get in the movies.

• 31:04Sam Morril?

  Maybe a couple.

• 31:05Mark Normand?

  Oh, okay.

• 31:06Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 31:07Sam Morril?

  Hey, we, we might have someone for our thing.

• 31:09Mark Normand?

  Yeah, we wrote a movie.

• 31:10Sam Morril?

  We wrote a movie, we might have.

• 31:11Speaker 02

  No kidding?

• 31:11Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 31:12Speaker 02

  For real?

• 31:12Mark Normand?

  A comedy.

• 31:13Speaker 02

  Oh, that's awesome.

• 31:14Sam Morril?

  Buddy, a buddy movie, yeah.

• 31:15Speaker 02

  I hope, yeah, that's why you're talking about making more comedies, because you're absolutely right, like, gotta get those comedies greenlit, we gotta get, but you have to convince people to go into movie theaters.

• 31:25Mark Normand?

  I know, well, we'll go to streamer, we don't mind a streamer.

• 31:27Sam Morril?

  Are you one of those comic actors who also is like, I want to do more serious stuff, or do you love doing comedies?

• 31:33Speaker 02

  I'd do, I'd do both.

• 31:34Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 31:35Speaker 02

  I want to do it all. I mean, Code Three is, I'd say mostly comedy, um, with some dramatic parts, but yeah, I'll, I'll do it all. I'll do it all.

• 31:44Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah. Yeah, we'd love to get this made, but I'm fine with a streamer.

• 31:48Speaker 02

  What's the name of your movie? What's, what's your pitch?

• 31:50Sam Morril?

  Right now, I think it's.

• 31:51Speaker 02

  Give me your elevator pitch.

• 31:51Sam Morril?

  Right now, it's Call We Might Be Drunk.

• 31:53Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 31:54Sam Morril?

  But, uh.

• 31:55Speaker 02

  Oh, really?

• 31:55Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 31:55Sam Morril?

  We're liquor salesmen, we have our own whiskey, Bodega Cat, and it's kind of about two guys who are struggling liquor salesmen, and how they have to try to circumvent, you know, the, the biz and, and get distribution.

• 32:07Speaker 02

  Yeah. Did you guys write it, or bring on another?

• 32:09Mark Normand?

  We wrote it.

• 32:10Sam Morril?

  With two, we have two other writers we wrote with, uh, and I think it's, I think it's fun.

• 32:14Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 32:15Sam Morril?

  We, we, we were working on it on the road, we're on FaceTime punching it up over the, and I was like, I think it's pretty close.

• 32:20Mark Normand?

  It's another but jokes, one after another, good story.

• 32:22Speaker 02

  Have you, have you sent it out or anything?

• 32:24Mark Normand?

  Sure, oh, yeah.

• 32:25Sam Morril?

  We're shortening it, we overwrote it, so we're shortening it to appease the financier, right?

• 32:30Speaker 02

  Okay, alright.

• 32:31Sam Morril?

  So, he was like, it's good, but it's gotta be a little shorter and then.

• 32:34Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 32:34Sam Morril?

  So, we'll see.

• 32:35Speaker 02

  Yeah, they want it like a hundred minutes, they don't want it.

• 32:37Sam Morril?

  But that's, but that's what a comedy should be, I think.

• 32:38Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 32:39Sam Morril?

  But they're, they're right, we overwrote it because there was too many cooks in the kitchen telling us, like, this needs to happen here and this, and we're like.

• 32:46Mark Normand?

  More heart.

• 32:46Sam Morril?

  Alright, yeah, more heart, oh my god, I hate smile comedy.

• 32:50Mark Normand?

  Hate heart.

• 32:50Sam Morril?

  Where it's like, it's not, I, I don't mind, there should be a moment where you feel, where you are happy.

• 32:54Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 32:55Sam Morril?

  But.

• 32:55Speaker 02

  You do want to care about the characters.

• 32:57Mark Normand?

  Yeah, of course, of course.

• 32:58Speaker 02

  You want to, you want to care for their situation in the first.

• 33:01Sam Morril?

  But I just mean like smiles in place of jokes. Where they think that's enough, where it's like, no, you need, you need it to be funny.

• 33:07Mark Normand?

  Yeah, yeah, yeah. And look, Naked Gun killed it, so that gives us hope.

• 33:11Speaker 02

  There you go.

• 33:12Sam Morril?

  Naked Gun did kill it.

• 33:13Speaker 02

  Yeah, I haven't seen that yet, but I heard just great things about it. I can't wait.

• 33:16Mark Normand?

  I heard it's good.

• 33:17Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I had lunch with the writer guys in LA. They're really cool.

• 33:19Mark Normand?

  Oh, wow.

• 33:20Sam Morril?

  They gave me, dude, they, one of them texted me to watch a movie. They, they send me movies now. Doug sent me to watch this Kurosawa movie, High and Low. I'd never seen it. It's fucking amazing.

• 33:29Mark Normand?

  Really?

• 33:30Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I'd never seen it. He was like, watch this.

• 33:32Speaker 02

  The, the original Japanese one?

• 33:33Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 33:34Speaker 02

  Like the 50s or 60s?

• 33:35Sam Morril?

  They just remade it with Denzel and Spike Lee, which, that looks pretty good, too.

• 33:38Speaker 02

  I couldn't get into the Japanese one. I just didn't under, I didn't understand the, what was going on.

• 33:44Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 33:45Sam Morril?

  It, you gotta get like five minutes and then it's pretty, I mean, the premise is crazy. It's, I'm not giving anything away because this happens in like the first few minutes, but basically there's a kidnapping. This guy mortgages all of his finances to take over the shoe company. And he's like playing the game to have a takeover, to have the full percentage. His kid gets kidnapped and he's on the phone. He's like, I don't have money, but fuck it. I'll do anything to save the kid. And then it turns out it's not his kid. It's the chauffeur's kid. And he's like, huh.

• 34:13Mark Normand?

  Oh, that's good.

• 34:15Sam Morril?

  But it goes from there and it's really good.

• 34:17Mark Normand?

  Yeah, interesting. I'm already hooked.

• 34:19Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 34:20Mark Normand?

  I just watched Seven Samurai. That's crazy.

• 34:22Speaker 02

  I love Seven Samurai.

• 34:24Sam Morril?

  I gotta, I gotta do a deep dive on Kurosawa because I feel like that's like a blind spot for me and it's all, everything I've seen, I love.

• 34:29Speaker 02

  Have you seen Ron? Not Ron, like.

• 34:33Mark Normand?

  R O N.

• 34:34Speaker 02

  R O N, but R A N. And it's like a retelling of, I think, King Lear.

• 34:41Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 34:42Speaker 02

  And it's the, the shots of the Samurai wars and stuff are just incredible.

• 34:47Mark Normand?

  Yeah, when you watch them, you're like, oh, I see the Scorsese, I see Tarantino influence. I see Hitchcock influence. There's so much influence.

• 34:54Sam Morril?

  Damn.

• 34:54Mark Normand?

  He was the guy.

• 34:55Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, he's great.

• 34:57Sam Morril?

  So do you, do you write a lot of scripts?

• 34:59Speaker 02

  Do I write a lot of scripts?

• 35:00Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 35:00Speaker 02

  Nah, I wrote a comedy script, like a long time ago, like 15 years ago, and Will Ferrell was attached for a little while and just couldn't get it financed and it's just sitting there. It's, it's called Bonzi Shadow Hands and it's about a, an alcoholic former ninja living in the San Fernando Valley.

• 35:20Mark Normand?

  Ooh.

• 35:21Sam Morril?

  I already like this.

• 35:21Speaker 02

  It's like a fucked up karate kid where a kid hires him to kill his stepdad.

• 35:27Mark Normand?

  Oh, fun.

• 35:28Speaker 02

  Former, uh. Former ninja in recovery who's living in a halfway house in Van Nuys. So, uh, it's funny. It's good.

• 35:39Mark Normand?

  But don't you hate the holiday? I know one's attached and then the meetings and then the distributors like.

• 35:45Speaker 02

  It's mad. We did the budget at like six million dollars, which is very low and, and everyone was like, we're gonna need like Mark Wahlberg to get this finance. It's like, Mike Wahl, Mark Wahlberg's not gonna do a six million dollar indie comedy.

• 36:01Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 36:02Speaker 02

  This, this doesn't, the math doesn't add up.

• 36:05Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 36:05Speaker 02

  And they're, you know, they go through the list of, of those A-list names and they're like, and then I'm like, could I, you know, could I make it with, um, uh, David Harbour? Isn't that his name? Like from Stranger Things? He's on Stranger Things. I'm like, no, he won't get you. He won't get you six million dollars.

• 36:24Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 36:25Speaker 02

  He's on the number one most famous TV show on the planet.

• 36:28Mark Normand?

  But so are you.

• 36:29Speaker 02

  Doing like Marvel stuff.

• 36:31Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 36:31Sam Morril?

  It's weird though that I feel like they also are just always on vacation that people were dealing with. Meetings just keep getting pushed. They're like, no, it's, it's MLK week and you're like, MLK week? But that was just a day. What the hell? And then they're like, and then there's another, they're going on vacation next week. And then the next week, the company's like down. I'm like, when do they fucking work?

• 36:49Mark Normand?

  I know.

• 36:50Speaker 02

  Hollywood will use any excuse to shut offices down.

• 36:53Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, speaking of shutting down, did your house burn down?

• 36:57Speaker 02

  Half my house burned down.

• 36:58Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 36:58Sam Morril?

  I saw that video, dude. I'm sorry.

• 37:00Mark Normand?

  Pull it up.

• 37:01Speaker 02

  Oh, we got that.

• 37:02Mark Normand?

  I mean, where are you living now?

• 37:03Speaker 02

  That ability. We moved back, we were in a bunch of Airbnbs, which sucked. And we moved back into the guest room of our house.

• 37:13Sam Morril?

  Wow.

• 37:14Mark Normand?

  Oh, that's a sitcom right there.

• 37:16Speaker 02

  And, uh, yeah, that's, uh.

• 37:18Mark Normand?

  Holy hell.

• 37:19Speaker 02

  Right there. That's it.

• 37:21Mark Normand?

  Is this, what are the Palisades or?

• 37:23Speaker 02

  This is in Ventura County. There was a little known smaller fire that was a month before the Palisades fire.

• 37:29Mark Normand?

  Mm-hmm.

• 37:29Speaker 02

  Uh, out in Ventura County and, um, that, uh.

• 37:33Mark Normand?

  Damn, you could have used some rain.

• 37:35Speaker 02

  Hey.

• 37:36Mark Normand?

  All right. Um, Jesus.

• 37:38Sam Morril?

  That's crazy, man.

• 37:39Mark Normand?

  Yeah. Sorry.

• 37:40Speaker 02

  So, but it's, it's moving along. It's moving along. It's, uh, it should be done by, uh, Christmas. It'll been like a year. It'll be a year.

• 37:47Sam Morril?

  Are there any steps they can, and this is a naive question, but are there any steps they can take to make the area safer from this happening again?

• 37:54Speaker 02

  There's, there are a lot of steps that folks can take. I've learned a lot about this. You can...

• 37:58Mark Normand?

  Bury the power lines?

• 38:00Speaker 02

  That would be the number one most helpful thing, but you can, um, you have to... We were fucked because a lot of our hedges kind of touched our house and like touched our roof and stuff.

• 38:11Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 38:12Speaker 02

  And that brought it... You have to put like mesh on the air ducts, you know, whatever you can do on your roof. Don't have wooden shingles. There's, there's a lot of, there's a lot of stuff you can do, but especially mitigating like trees and foliage around the house is the number one thing.

• 38:27Speaker 03

  I saw people installing sprinklers on their roofs.

• 38:29Speaker 02

  Yep.

• 38:30Mark Normand?

  Whoa.

  We're doing that for the next, for the next one, you know, just have a... You know, you got sprinklers in your yard, sprinklers on your roof and have an app and like, oh, there's a fire getting close.

Because you always hear like, there was billions donated and it all went to some guy with an NGO.

• 42:08Speaker 02

  We didn't get anything.

• 42:09Mark Normand?

  Oh, this is what I'm talking about. What's going on out there?

• 42:13Sam Morril?

  And the insurance companies are all gone, right?

• 42:15Speaker 02

  We were lucky, we got it. We have pretty good insurance, but we still, our deductible was huge. So, I'm out, you know, I'm out a lot.

• 42:23Mark Normand?

  Oh, sorry.

• 42:24Speaker 02

  And then there's lots of stuff you have to replace and buy and it doesn't cover like, you know, we lost dozens of trees on our property and we got to replace those. Trees are expensive.

• 42:35Mark Normand?

  I know, I know.

• 42:36Sam Morril?

  I don't, I didn't know that.

• 42:37Mark Normand?

  Plants are expensive.

• 42:39Speaker 02

  Yeah, yeah, you get a little tiny trees, like three to $500. And then if you want to get like a sizable tree, you're in the thousands of dollars.

• 42:48Sam Morril?

  Damn, I didn't, I know nothing about this.

• 42:50Mark Normand?

  I moved to Brooklyn and you got to keep up with the Joneses around the neighborhood. So, I had to buy a bunch of flowers and pots and dirt. It feels weird to buy dirt. You know, dirt's like what we're trying to get rid of, it's everywhere and I'm buying dirt.

• 43:02Speaker 02

  I'll take you out to New Jersey, but get some dirt for free.

• 43:04Mark Normand?

  Oh, let's do it. All right.

• 43:07Speaker 02

  That'll end.

• 43:08Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 43:08Speaker 02

  Do a Sopranos thing.

• 43:10Mark Normand?

  I'm on my hands and knees with a little shovel. I feel like a, you know, Wally Cleaver.

• 43:15Sam Morril?

  Do you still get crazy residuals from The Office?

• 43:19Speaker 02

  I get pretty good residuals, although it's funny, I did not from Netflix. So, Netflix, there was some statistic, maybe you can look up the statistic about the number of like billions of minutes watched or something like that. It was like, The Office was like the most watched show during COVID and kind of even pre-COVID. And that, the streaming residuals are not good, but it still plays on like Comedy Central.

• 43:43Mark Normand?

  Hell, yeah.

• 43:44Speaker 02

  And it's foreign sales and some other ones, so we do okay.

• 43:47Mark Normand?

  341 million hours of viewing worldwide during the first half of 2023.

• 43:52Sam Morril?

  Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, it went super viral.

• 43:55Speaker 02

  There's something about billions, though.

• 43:56Speaker 03

  That's the first half of 2023. So you can double that. That's.

• 44:01Speaker 02

  There was something about billions of hours or minutes.

• 44:04Mark Normand?

  I believe it. My wife watches it literally every day. It's just like a comfort thing at this point.

• 44:08Sam Morril?

  It is. It is a comfort show.

• 44:10Speaker 02

  But this is a, this is a problem. I was talking to a TV executive and they're like, I was like, why are there no new comedies? Yeah. Viewers spent 57 billion minutes watching The Office on Netflix in 2020.

• 44:21Mark Normand?

  2020.

• 44:23Speaker 03

  57 billion minutes.

• 44:25Speaker 02

  If you, if you knew like the check amount for the residuals.

• 44:28Mark Normand?

  Woo.

• 44:30Speaker 02

  It was very low for that. But now then they sold it to Peacock and then.

• 44:34Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 44:35Speaker 02

  It's gotten better since then.

• 44:37Mark Normand?

  Oh, good.

• 44:38Speaker 02

  But, but part of the problem, I was talking to this TV guy and they were like, I was like, why are there no new great comedies? There's so few TV comedies.

• 44:47Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 44:47Speaker 02

  Out there or being launched and whatnot. And then there's shows like The Bear. That's not really a comedy.

• 44:52Mark Normand?

  I know.

• 44:53Sam Morril?

  Oh my God, I get so annoyed when they call it a comedy.

• 44:55Mark Normand?

  It identifies as a comedy.

• 44:56Speaker 02

  Even like Hacks is a really fun.

• 44:58Mark Normand?

  Hacks is good.

• 44:58Speaker 02

  But I wouldn't, I wouldn't necessarily say it's like.

• 45:02Mark Normand?

  It's a dramedy.

• 45:03Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 45:03Mark Normand?

  It's a dramedy. There's a lot of jokes in it, but it's really a sad story.

• 45:06Speaker 02

  But the problem is, is that people keep fucking watching The Office over and over again.

• 45:09Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 45:11Speaker 02

  And Seinfeld and Friends and 30 Rock and Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

• 45:14Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 45:15Speaker 02

  Parks and Rec.

• 45:15Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 45:16Speaker 02

  And they're just watching these shows over and over again. And young people are watching them. So they're not like ordering new comedies. So.

• 45:23Mark Normand?

  I never thought of it that way.

• 45:24Speaker 02

  Stop watching The Office. There's your headline. They might be drunk. Rainn Wilson says, stop watching The Office. Clickbait outrage. What is this about? This is gonna be a great reel. Uh, uh, uh.

• 45:39Mark Normand?

  It's a good point. When All in the Family stopped coming on, you watched the next thing. Cause you couldn't replay All in the Family.

• 45:44Speaker 02

  Right.

• 45:45Mark Normand?

  I never thought of it that way.

• 45:46Sam Morril?

  You could buy the VHS or something, but yeah, it was a whole different process. So, but when this came back on just a few years ago, I think also, was it during COVID? Was it 2020?

• 45:56Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 45:56Sam Morril?

  Cause that makes so much sense that people needed a comfort watch.

• 45:59Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 45:59Sam Morril?

  But.

• 46:01Sam Morril?

  Did you get an insane amount of new fans you think from that?

• 46:04Speaker 02

  It was, because people don't remember this, but even before Steve left, we were in ratings decline. The last like four or five seasons of The Office.

• 46:14Sam Morril?

  I remember the first season, I didn't even, I, I, I thought it was funny and I didn't think it was gonna survive.

• 46:18Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 46:19Sam Morril?

  Because it was like six episodes.

• 46:20Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 46:20Sam Morril?

  And it was.

• 46:21Mark Normand?

  Spader.

• 46:21Speaker 02

  And that's what we thought. We thought it was gonna be like Arrested Development, like, you know.

• 46:24Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 46:25Speaker 02

  Season and a half, two seasons.

• 46:27Sam Morril?

  Cult following.

• 46:28Speaker 02

  Cult following, great show, but, uh, but disappear.

• 46:32Sam Morril?

  Did that, did that influence the vibe on, where you're like, this is, was it nervous on set? Because you're like, it's gonna go away?

• 46:39Speaker 02

  We were almost, I can't tell you, people don't believe the story, but I can't even tell you how many times we were almost canceled.

• 46:46Mark Normand?

  Whoa.

• 46:48Speaker 02

  Hung on by the skin of our teeth. It was, it was, it was crazy.

• 46:52Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 46:53Speaker 02

  God, they're idiots. Like, season two was like, oh, I found the money and we're gonna order seven more episodes. We just did six for season one, like.

• 47:03Sam Morril?

  I love that they found the money, like they're under some cushion, they're like, oh, here, here we go.

• 47:07Speaker 02

  Kevin Riley, who was running NBC at the time, is like, he like squirreled money, I think, away from like other bad shows and like put in a side fund and like, and they're like, oh, we got, we got one more episode in season two, we can make it eight now.

• 47:22Mark Normand?

  Jeez.

• 47:22Speaker 02

  And we're like, oh, great, hey, they ordered one more. And like, okay, they ordered two more scripts, but we don't know if we're gonna shoot them. It was really touch and go for months and months.

• 47:30Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 47:31Sam Morril?

  They did this to Family Guy too. A lot of these shows are just sort of like this close to just disappearing forever, then end up going for forever on TV.

• 47:38Speaker 02

  It's made them a bazillion dollars. And Seinfeld.

• 47:40Mark Normand?

  Seinfeld too, yeah, almost got, putting it after Cheers is what saved them.

• 47:43Sam Morril?

  But was, was that, I don't know this, so I'm sorry, I, I know, I don't know this at all, but was the show ever a huge ratings hit? Was it like a critical hit? I know it's huge now.

• 47:52Speaker 02

  It did, it did, it did very well in the ratings. I don't know that it ever was like a top 10 show, but it was like, it certainly was the number one comedy on NBC.

• 48:01Sam Morril?

  That's cool.

• 48:01Speaker 02

  And it was a top comedy.

• 48:03Mark Normand?

  Hell yeah.

• 48:04Speaker 02

  And, but it might have been sometimes in the top 20 or 30 or something like that, but it was. But here's the thing.

• 48:10Sam Morril?

  That was also like the reality TV era, too.

• 48:12Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 48:12Sam Morril?

  That was probably crushing.

• 48:14Speaker 02

  That, but they did studies of like, who was watching The Office? And they're like, oh, it's college kids and rich people.

• 48:21Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 48:22Speaker 02

  And that's the key demo.

• 48:24Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 48:25Speaker 02

  That the advertisers want to reach. So we didn't have huge audiences, but they kind of keyed in on the fact that we had some smart, uh, fans like your wife.

• 48:34Mark Normand?

  Yeah, there you go. She loves it. She lives for it. Also, here's a theory. You go.

• 48:38Speaker 02

  She's a college kid.

• 48:39Mark Normand?

  Yeah. Oh, my reep. But, uh, she goes through, or we all go through, uh, Instagram and TikTok, and there's a lot of comedy on there. So I wonder if we get a fill of comedy, like just going through YouTube shorts and the guy getting kicked in the balls and then a stand-up clip.

• 48:55Sam Morril?

  It's literally you.

• 48:56Mark Normand?

  And it's for you.

• 48:56Speaker 02

  And comedy podcast.

• 48:58Mark Normand?

  And podcast.

• 48:59Speaker 02

  So, yeah.

• 49:00Sam Morril?

  But I like scripted comedy. I, I miss.

• 49:02Mark Normand?

  I do, too.

• 49:04Sam Morril?

  Our buddy's on a show on FX, The English Teacher.

• 49:07Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah. It's very funny. It's very funny.

• 49:09Speaker 02

  I haven't seen it.

• 49:10Sam Morril?

  I think it's a funny show.

• 49:11Mark Normand?

  Really funny. Sean Patton.

• 49:12Speaker 02

  The paper's out now, and I watched the pilot. I thought, yeah, they didn't, you know. I'm not paid to say this. No, I thought.

• 49:18Mark Normand?

  Come on, Dwight, what are you doing? This is sacrilegious. So we don't need to remake. It's like when they remade White Men Can't Jump.

• 49:25Sam Morril?

  It's not a remake. It's like a spinoff thing.

• 49:26Speaker 02

  It's a spinoff thing. It's a, it's a documentary. The same documentary crew is documenting a different workspace. It's a Toledo Truth Teller newspaper.

• 49:34Mark Normand?

  Give it up.

• 49:35Speaker 02

  I think.

• 49:36Mark Normand?

  I mean, you're just like, live, damn it, live. It's over.

• 49:39Sam Morril?

  Was anybody annoyed when Parks and Rec came out and you're like, this is our thing?

• 49:43Speaker 02

  No, because Greg Daniels co-created it and Mike Schur, who was from SNL and was a head writer on The Office. So we were, we were rooting for him.

• 49:53Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 49:53Speaker 02

  It was a kind of, felt like all in the family, kind of.

• 49:55Mark Normand?

  It's gotta be tough for these writers. Where do they all, they used to be like 38 comedies on TV. Now there's like two. They must be clawing to get those jobs.

• 50:02Speaker 02

  Any, my, my friend is working on the TED animated.

• 50:06Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 50:06Sam Morril?

  A great show.

• 50:07Mark Normand?

  Great show.

• 50:08Speaker 02

  So, um.

• 50:09Sam Morril?

  That's a great new comedy.

• 50:10Speaker 02

  Yeah, he's so grateful.

• 50:13Mark Normand?

  Yes, yes.

• 50:14Speaker 02

  To have a comedy job. I mean, there's so many like comedy writers out there with guns. To their heads right now.

• 50:19Mark Normand?

  I know.

• 50:20Speaker 02

  There's so little work for them.

• 50:22Mark Normand?

  I see them trickling into the stand-up clubs and I'm like, oh, welcome to the gutter. Yeah, you got no cushy air conditioning anymore.

• 50:28Sam Morril?

  You should be a writer or producer, you'll make, you know, a safer living and now it's, I think it's the opposite. Stand-up, there's way more of a middle class.

• 50:35Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 50:36Sam Morril?

  Figure it out. Kind of make your own career, you can work when you choose to work.

• 50:40Speaker 02

  You gotta be on the road a lot.

• 50:41Mark Normand?

  We don't mind the road.

• 50:42Sam Morril?

  We don't mind it.

• 50:42Mark Normand?

  Luckily, I'm okay with the road.

• 50:44Sam Morril?

  We, we did it when it sucked, so now when it's not that bad.

• 50:47Mark Normand?

  Good point.

• 50:48Sam Morril?

  You know, we did it when we were in like a super eight, so now like a cool hotel, we're like, oh, this is great.

• 50:53Mark Normand?

  Yeah, and I have a kid, so I gotta get out there.

• 50:56Speaker 02

  Do you do like corporate gigs too?

• 50:58Mark Normand?

  Sometimes.

• 50:59Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 50:59Mark Normand?

  Good money.

• 51:01Speaker 02

  Yeah, those are, those are good.

• 51:02Mark Normand?

  Horrible gigs with great money.

• 51:03Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 51:04Mark Normand?

  They, they, you bomb, you're gonna go in knowing I'm gonna bomb, but just get that check.

• 51:08Sam Morril?

  And if you don't bomb, it's like, you're like, wow, that was cool.

• 51:09Speaker 02

  Cause only, they're not there to see you, so only like a quarter of them have seen you before on the web and.

• 51:15Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 51:15Speaker 02

  You're not, yeah.

• 51:16Mark Normand?

  I've had corporate gigs where the guy is so pumped to have me, he's like, I'm a fan, do this joke, do that joke, and I'm like, oh, this is gonna be a layup, and I still bombed.

• 51:23Sam Morril?

  Yeah, well, he liked you, the rest of the, that's the same here, you get hired by the person who likes you, and then the rest of the people are like, what the fuck is this shit?

• 51:29Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 51:29Sam Morril?

  I remember doing a kid's birthday for that once, and he was like, do this joke, I'm like, dude, they hate me, what do you, you know?

• 51:34Mark Normand?

  Wow, John Reap did it after you, but yeah, that's the last Reap, sorry. But you must get P A. stuff all the time, where they want, they want you to pop down and say a few words.

• 51:45Speaker 02

  I, I do that, um, I got one where I got to go open the Delta Airlines First Class Lounge in Seattle, where I literally like cut the ribbon.

• 51:55Sam Morril?

  Wow.

• 51:56Speaker 02

  And got a nice chunk of change in my hometown, Seattle.

• 51:59Mark Normand?

  Hey.

• 52:00Speaker 02

  At Sea-Tac Airport, where I was going as a kid and, uh.

• 52:03Mark Normand?

  That's fun.

• 52:04Speaker 02

  But I do a lot where I, I, you know, cause Soul Boom, the podcast I do is a little, is a little deeper, no offense, it's a little, you know, we get into spirituality and mental health and, yeah. There's no drunkenness, we don't talk about porn so much.

• 52:19Speaker 02

  And, uh.

• 52:19Mark Normand?

  Soul deep, sounds like a black porn.

• 52:22Speaker 02

  Soul deep.

• 52:23Mark Normand?

  Okay.

• 52:23Speaker 02

  Soul Boom.

• 52:24Mark Normand?

  Soul Boom, sorry.

• 52:26Speaker 02

  But, uh.

• 52:27Sam Morril?

  That also sounds like a black porn.

• 52:29Speaker 02

  I go to a lot of, uh, conventions and stuff, talking about like mental health stuff and kind of, you know, being a human being.

• 52:38Sam Morril?

  What do you think your interest in that came from, the, the mental health stuff?

• 52:41Speaker 02

  Going going through a mental health crisis.

• 52:43Mark Normand?

  Oh shit.

• 52:45Speaker 02

  Fucking miserable for years.

• 52:46Mark Normand?

  What happened?

• 52:47Sam Morril?

  What made you so miserable, do you think?

• 52:50Speaker 02

  Um, well.

• 52:53Mark Normand?

  Uh oh.

• 52:54Speaker 02

  We might be drunk. Part of it was drugs and alcohol.

• 52:57Mark Normand?

  Ah.

• 52:58Speaker 02

  But that was just part of it. This was in the nineties. I was in my twenties. But I was just lost, you know, like drugs and alcohol for me. They, I just medicated my anxiety with them. Then later, like we were talking about porn, I used porn to medicate my anxiety. Like, it just doesn't work for me. Um, and I just, I was, uh, you know, they might be lost. I just was, um. Yeah, I just struggled a lot and a lot of like anxiety, loneliness, depression. Um, I was trying to be an actor. I was dirt broke, you know, for a while I was living in this like. I swear to God, I was living in an abandoned warehouse in in Brooklyn.

• 53:36Mark Normand?

  Whoa.

• 53:38Speaker 02

  Just, uh, and that, uh, and then in the nineties, there weren't many ways to kind of. Like, what do you do? Like, I couldn't afford therapy.

• 53:47Mark Normand?

  No.

• 53:47Speaker 02

  There's no podcasts, there's no apps, there's no meditation app.

• 53:51Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 53:51Speaker 02

  There's like.

• 53:52Mark Normand?

  There's booze.

• 53:53Speaker 02

  Yeah. And so when I was quitting that and trying to figure out my path, I started investigating spirituality. So I started reading about Buddhism and trying to meditate and reading. You know, cause I thought maybe if there's, if I find like life and purpose and God and the meaning of life. Maybe this will get me out of it. And it helped. It didn't like, um, it didn't like solve things for me, but it was, uh. I'm kind of grateful for the journey.

• 54:20Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 54:20Speaker 02

  Cause, um, it's, it helped me put a lot of things in perspective.

• 54:25Sam Morril?

  Did that help you kind of feel back on track? I mean. Reading this stuff or did therapy help or medication?

• 54:31Speaker 02

  And eventually I started making a little money and doing TV and I was able to get into therapy and.

• 54:36Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 54:36Speaker 02

  Um, yeah, I did medication for a while. That helped. And, um. Yeah. And then I got into 12 step recovery and that helped as well. And so you put it all together, therapy and 12 steps and. And meditation, reading about spiritual ideas and. You know, just trying to kind of focus my life and like, why am I here? My, my next book is going to be on the meaning of life.

• 54:57Mark Normand?

  Whoa, that's a lofty subject.

• 55:00Speaker 02

  It is, it is pretty.

• 55:01Mark Normand?

  Good luck.

• 55:02Speaker 02

  Lofty.

• 55:02Sam Morril?

  What, can you give us a blurb? Like, what, what, what do you feel is the meaning?

• 55:07Speaker 02

  Oh, I know what the meaning is.

• 55:08Mark Normand?

  Ooh wee, residuals?

• 55:11Speaker 02

  Hey! Um, the meaning of life, and I, and I verified this, I interviewed this Tibetan monk that had spent his entire life like meditating.

• 55:21Mark Normand?

  Thich Nhat Hanh?

• 55:22Speaker 02

  It wasn't, it wasn't him, he's dead now, but, um, I, I love Thich Nhat Hanh.

• 55:27Mark Normand?

  Me too.

• 55:27Speaker 02

  Did you read, read his stuff?

• 55:28Mark Normand?

  Yeah, he's good.

• 55:29Speaker 02

  He's amazing.

• 55:29Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 55:30Speaker 02

  He's amazing. Uh, but, uh, and it was, it's about service to others. It's all about service to others. That's it.

• 55:38Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 55:38Speaker 02

  Because when you serve others, you become happier and you're making the world a better place. And if everyone is in a service mindset, one to another, then the whole world is gonna elevate. Like, all of these issues that we're having, all these divisions and this toxicity is going to dissipate if we're living in a kind of a, a loving service mindset with ever deeper compassion.

• 56:02Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 56:02Speaker 02

  To another, so.

• 56:03Sam Morril?

  How do we, how do we accomplish that, though, when everyone is just being meaner than ever on their phones?

• 56:10Speaker 02

  It's, it's hard.

• 56:11Mark Normand?

  Get rid of the phone.

• 56:12Speaker 02

  It's, uh, well, yeah. I'm thinking about making my smartphone a dumb phone.

• 56:17Mark Normand?

  Like a, like a brick?

• 56:19Speaker 02

  Well, I, I looked into that, I think there's another way to do it, where if I give my friends my screen time password. So I don't have my screen time password. And then they do like, they take off the App Store, and then they take off all the apps that I waste my time on, including like Safari and email.

• 56:39Mark Normand?

  Mm-hmm.

• 56:40Speaker 02

  And news, and YouTube, and, and all that stuff, so I, my phone is just like, Maps, podcasts, texts.

• 56:50Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 56:51Speaker 02

  And.

• 56:52Mark Normand?

  That's pretty good.

• 56:53Speaker 02

  And that's it.

• 56:54Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 56:55Sam Morril?

  It sucks that you get your news the same place where you get all the other bad stuff. Cause it is good to be informed, but then I'm like, I'm getting the news the same place, I get porn, I get death scrolling, I get.

• 57:06Speaker 02

  Shopping on Amazon.

• 57:07Sam Morril?

  Shopping, yeah.

• 57:08Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 57:10Speaker 02

  This is, then this huge, and, and there's, it's part of the huge mental health crisis too, is that, is like, this social experiment of like, hey, we're gonna give everyone above the age of 11.

• 57:21Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 57:22Speaker 02

  A microcomputer that can do anything, that has constant endless distraction.

• 57:28Speaker 02

  Um, you can look up anything, Google anything, order anything, watch any kind of porn you want. You want German Shepherd porn, whatever it is.

• 57:36Mark Normand?

  Yep.

• 57:37Speaker 02

  Uh, it's all right there at your fingertips. And we're just gonna plunk one of these into everyone's pockets.

• 57:43Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 57:43Speaker 02

  Circa two thousand fifteen or whatever.

• 57:47Mark Normand?

  Yeah, it's crazy.

• 57:48Speaker 02

  Ten, like, we're just gonna go, boom, here's hundreds of millions of these little devices.

• 57:52Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 57:53Speaker 02

  And we'll never be bored again, because you always have your phone to look at.

• 57:56Mark Normand?

  And boredom is good. You need to be bored.

• 57:58Sam Morril?

  Boredom is good for creativity. I mean, you you wrote, you wrote up the Billy Joel doc and he would talk about how he'd go a little crazy because he'd have to kind of go into hiding to write. But that writing gave us some great.

• 58:09Mark Normand?

  Yeah, you gotta be bored.

• 58:10Sam Morril?

  I mean, boredom is, God, I remember being bored as a kid and being like, this is probably good.

• 58:15Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 58:16Sam Morril?

  Not at the time, but looking back, that was probably.

• 58:18Mark Normand?

  Huge. I always say the phone is the only invention that's been amazing and helped our lives. But you're also glad it wasn't around when you were a kid.

• 58:25Speaker 02

  Yeah. And now with AI, like, I think about kids, what if you're like thirteen now? And like, you've got an essay due on the Renaissance or something like that. And you can just kind of be, ChatGPT, right? Right? And yeah, of course, you're gonna change it and this and that, but you're not really gonna learn about.

• 58:43Mark Normand?

  No.

• 58:44Speaker 02

  How are we gonna, how is teaching going to have to change? How is learning and schooling going to have to shift because of AI? Like, my son's in college and I'm like, thank God he didn't have AI in.

• 58:55Mark Normand?

  Exactly.

• 58:56Speaker 02

  Or high school. Like, he had to actually research and write his paper. Now, he had Google. I didn't have Google. I had to go to the library.

• 59:03Mark Normand?

  Yeah, same. Porn and the homos.

• 59:05Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 59:05Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 59:06Mark Normand?

  Yeah, and I'm the same way. I feel the same way. And even spelling, my spelling has gotten worse. I used to be able to tell time in two seconds. Now you go, what is that? The the six is on the four, because he just, your brain will go to convenience every time.

• 59:17Sam Morril?

  Oh, do you remember using a calculator? You used to feel like a piece of shit.

• 59:20Mark Normand?

  Yes, yes.

• 59:22Sam Morril?

  Now I'm like, ah, that's, I don't even think. I'm like, oh, yeah, tip, calculate, you know, something like that.

• 59:27Mark Normand?

  Yeah. Did they have that with the abacus? They're like, man, I'm fucking beating the system with this thing, you know? But yeah, that's true. We just everything. Remember how many phone numbers you used to know?

• 59:36Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 59:37Mark Normand?

  That's all gone.

• 59:37Sam Morril?

  I still know a couple. I know a few.

• 59:39Mark Normand?

  I don't even know mine.

• 59:40Speaker 02

  That's it.

• 59:40Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I know my mom, my dad.

• 59:45Mark Normand?

  We do the same joke to each other.

• 59:48Sam Morril?

  No, it is crazy because ChatGPT, you get these shortcut answers and I immediately like it is can be fun. Like I was watching a movie last night. I was watching, I was watching the tennis match you were yesterday and I was like, oh, what's uh, what's their head to head? I want to know what their.

• 1:00:02Speaker 02

  Yeah, Sinner and Alcaraz, how are they do?

• 1:00:04Sam Morril?

  And then I'm like, I wonder what Federer and Nadal's had to have. You start doing that, you're like, it's cool to get all these answers.

• 1:00:09Mark Normand?

  Yes.

• 1:00:09Sam Morril?

  But using that for your education as a kid, you just don't, if you're just using shortcuts, you don't have a understanding for the big picture of anything.

• 1:00:17Mark Normand?

  You never have to dig deep. You never have to, I always say kids have it so good, they'll never be great. Uh, why would I learn an instrument? I'll just AI the song. I'll make a song on AI. Or why would I write a novel? I'll just ChatGPT it.

• 1:00:29Sam Morril?

  Because if you love it, you will become obsessed, I think. The same reason like with stand up, I think like if you, there are shortcuts, but like if you love it, you gotta figure it out. I think kids will become obsessed with instruments or sports or anything. If you're good at something, you will pursue it and.

• 1:00:44Mark Normand?

  I hope so.

• 1:00:45Sam Morril?

  I mean, you watched probably the two best tennis players ever together yesterday.

• 1:00:49Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:00:49Sam Morril?

  What was their childhood?

• 1:00:50Speaker 02

  They're both in the top 10, definitely.

• 1:00:52Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 1:00:52Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:00:53Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:00:53Mark Normand?

  For sure.

• 1:00:54Sam Morril?

  On track at least to be.

• 1:00:56Mark Normand?

  But you get to see them in the flesh.

• 1:00:58Speaker 02

  Oh, my God, it was amazing. I was like 50 feet from the court. I'm so glad I hoarded myself out. It was amazing.

• 1:01:03Mark Normand?

  Good, good move.

• 1:01:04Speaker 02

  It was amazing.

• 1:01:05Mark Normand?

  Wow.

• 1:01:05Speaker 02

  They're so good.

• 1:01:07Mark Normand?

  Damn.

• 1:01:07Speaker 02

  That was one of the topics, I was supposed to send in topics to you guys and one of them was about tennis because I'm a huge, I play tennis, I love playing tennis. I'm pretty mediocre, but then um, I just feel like the average age of like a tennis fan is like in their like 60s or 70s.

• 1:01:24Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 1:01:24Speaker 02

  And it's like the really high income bracket and it, it sucks because tennis doesn't have to be that. I mean, there's tennis courts at every high school.

• 1:01:31Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:32Speaker 02

  And every public park in America and some of the greatest tennis players have come not out of the clubs like Serena. You know, out of public courts and stuff like that. And tennis needs that like a rebrand. Needs a refresh and maybe it's the way it's played or scored or something like that. But I feel like.

• 1:01:49Sam Morril?

  It needs a Happy Gilmore type of person because McEnroe was such a wild card. I think that appeals to, well, you need someone who's like, kind of like.

• 1:01:56Speaker 02

  John Daly. Personalities.

• 1:01:58Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 1:01:58Speaker 02

  Yeah, you're right. Everyone is very polite these days.

• 1:02:01Sam Morril?

  You need someone who's kind of a head case. And there was that woman who's kind of a head case. Oh, you know who it is? Oh, God, who is the guy? Medvedev. He's kind of a head case.

• 1:02:08Speaker 02

  A little bit.

• 1:02:09Sam Morril?

  It's kind of fun when someone.

• 1:02:10Speaker 02

  And Nick Kyrgios is too.

• 1:02:11Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 1:02:11Speaker 02

  Hmm.

• 1:02:12Sam Morril?

  But he's done, right?

• 1:02:13Speaker 02

  I think because of injuries, he's kind of done. Yeah.

• 1:02:16Sam Morril?

  I like the, I think you need that. Rivalries are good, but then you need, you need some, some color. You need some.

• 1:02:24Speaker 02

  Here's the weirdest thing about tennis. Let's say we're the two top tennis players in the world. We just spent three weeks going up through the US Open. We played our final match and he beat me. Just barely by the skin of his teeth, he beat me. And now there's 30,000 fans in the stadium. They stick a microphone in my face and give me the runner up plate and they want me to talk for two to three minutes.

• 1:02:49Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 1:02:49Speaker 02

  There's no other sport where the loser has to talk first.

• 1:02:54Mark Normand?

  Hmm.

• 1:02:55Speaker 02

  Like, yeah, it was, it was a tough three weeks and you gotta pull your shit together and not cry.

• 1:03:00Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 1:03:01Speaker 02

  And like, and yeah, Mark or Sam, which one are you?

• 1:03:07Mark Normand?

  Kevin Hart.

• 1:03:09Speaker 02

  You know, he really played hard and congratulations.

• 1:03:11Sam Morril?

  I'm just happy he knew her names at all. It's nice.

• 1:03:13Mark Normand?

  I'm Theo Vaughn.

• 1:03:15Speaker 02

  So.

• 1:03:16Mark Normand?

  Yeah, that's true. But it's such a sophisticated game. It has that class to it where they can do that.

• 1:03:23Speaker 02

  Apparently, but I think you're right. We need more, uh, kind of off the wall.

• 1:03:26Mark Normand?

  I think you're right.

• 1:03:27Sam Morril?

  You're also right with other sports like basketball. They kind of just like walk off the court sad. And later they'll interview them, but they're like, eh, but yeah, I thought.

• 1:03:34Speaker 02

  Well, the winner will get a microphone for like 30 seconds. Yeah, we tried, played hard, just tough, tough team. Yeah, we played good defense. Congrats, everyone out there. Thanks.

• 1:03:44Sam Morril?

  Blake Griffin did, you know, dabbled in stand up a little bit and he's a funny guy.

• 1:03:48Speaker 02

  He is.

• 1:03:48Sam Morril?

  And he did a bit where he would, he would say, oh, we're so stupid. Athletes are so dumb. Come up here. He'd bring a guy on stage. He'd make him do a bunch of pushups, a bunch of, uh, jumping jacks. And then he would put the mic and the guy would be like. The guy couldn't speak, he was like, "Yeah, not so easy, is it?" After you just played a whole game.

• 1:04:05Speaker 02

  That's funny.

• 1:04:05Sam Morril?

  He's like, "That's why we sound stupid." It was pretty, it was a clever bit.

• 1:04:08Mark Normand?

  That's cool, I like that.

• 1:04:09Speaker 03

  The UFC used to interview the guy that just got knocked out. They don't do that anymore.

• 1:04:13Mark Normand?

  Oh, really?

• 1:04:14Sam Morril?

  Probably for the best.

• 1:04:15Speaker 03

  Yeah.

• 1:04:17Mark Normand?

  But yeah, that's another great example. UFC, it's all trash talk. It's all, it's all hype. There's not really hype in tennis.

• 1:04:24Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 1:04:24Speaker 02

  Maybe that's what we need.

• 1:04:25Sam Morril?

  You avoided a Rihanna joke there, too. I want to give Marcus flowers for that.

• 1:04:27Mark Normand?

  Thank you, thank you.

• 1:04:28Sam Morril?

  And don't talk to Rihanna.

• 1:04:31Mark Normand?

  Hey, I'm up for a post-game porno interview. "How'd it go? How many orgasms? Did your ass hurt?"

• 1:04:40Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I almost cramped up at the end of that.

• 1:04:41Speaker 02

  A little chafing, but then we got going, it was pretty good.

• 1:04:44Mark Normand?

  Yeah, yeah.

• 1:04:45Speaker 02

  I wish my load had been a little bit for, uh...

• 1:04:49Sam Morril?

  If you want to do this, because you gotta hydrate. Hydrate at home.

• 1:04:52Mark Normand?

  Yeah, good Gatorade, that's my new spot.

• 1:04:54Speaker 02

  Coconut water.

• 1:04:55Mark Normand?

  Yeah, nut. Uh, you got some peeves here, Rainy?

• 1:05:00Sam Morril?

  Ooh, a peeve is pets dying. That is, I mean, that's beyond a peeve, that's brutal.

• 1:05:05Speaker 02

  Here's a hot take that's gonna really alienate everyone from me. They're like, "Oh, I thought that guy was so nice."

• 1:05:12Mark Normand?

  Can't wait. Well, let's hear it.

• 1:05:16Speaker 02

  If you get a pet...

• 1:05:17Mark Normand?

  I have one.

• 1:05:19Speaker 02

  It's going to die.

• 1:05:20Mark Normand?

  That's true.

• 1:05:21Speaker 02

  And you will be sad.

• 1:05:22Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:05:23Speaker 02

  But can you be appropriately sad for the loss of a pet? Knowing your pet is gonna be around for eight to 14 years.

• 1:05:31Mark Normand?

  Hmm, what do you mean appropriately?

• 1:05:34Speaker 02

  Because...

• 1:05:34Sam Morril?

  Like, don't overdo it?

• 1:05:36Speaker 02

  Wait, you're cueing up the DJ AirHorn sound effect?

• 1:05:39Sam Morril?

  What is it, what the?

• 1:05:40Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 1:05:41Speaker 02

  Okay. But people, like, they're...

• 1:05:47Speaker 02

  Wait, there's so many people I've interacted with, and like, their cat, their 10-year-old cat died. Like, "Oh, can you, I'm not gonna be able to make the wedding, because my cat died." Or, "I missed a week of work, because our dog died." Or, "I've been, I've been depressed for two months, because our do-" It's like... They die, we used to work on farms and animals just die all the time.

• 1:06:12Mark Normand?

  Right, right.

• 1:06:12Speaker 02

  Or you'd, you'd kill, you know, the cow, Bessie, and you'd eat it.

• 1:06:18Mark Normand?

  Yeah, sure.

• 1:06:20Speaker 02

  So like the idea of like animals.

• 1:06:21Sam Morril?

  Maybe those people, they're eating the cow and they're like, I'm so fucking sad I'm eating this cow, you know? This is brutal.

• 1:06:27Speaker 02

  I'm not gonna farm for two weeks because I'm having to eat. So, I just feel like people have gotten really over the, really over the top around their pets dying. I'm sorry. And people will be like, I'm just so sad my dog died. And I want to say like, I, it's hard for me to have compassion. I'm kinda like, what did you think was gonna? I mean, of course, I always say like, I'm so sorry. They're like a family member.

• 1:06:49Sam Morril?

  How about what if the dog dies like, at like three because it was hit by a truck? Do they get a bigger?

• 1:06:54Mark Normand?

  That's part of the problem.

• 1:06:55Sam Morril?

  Wrong, wrong.

• 1:06:57Speaker 02

  No, no. Then, then you only had it around for three years.

• 1:07:02Speaker 02

  Are you guys in on this at all?

• 1:07:03Mark Normand?

  Well, let me, let me just say, as a pet owner, can I push back?

• 1:07:06Speaker 02

  I'm a pet, I'm a huge pet owner.

• 1:07:07Mark Normand?

  Oh, what do you got?

• 1:07:08Speaker 02

  Yeah, well, I've, I've had, my wife and I have had like eight different pit bulls and they, they die and I cry and, and I mourn and then three days later.

• 1:07:16Sam Morril?

  You're at the dog fight, you're like, look, he put up a good, put up a good fight. He did his best.

• 1:07:21Mark Normand?

  You and Michael Vick hanging out?

• 1:07:24Speaker 02

  Exactly. Uh, but, you know, you mourn, of course, you're sad. I'm not saying that, but it's like, your life doesn't shut down. And people like, people have like nervous breakdowns.

• 1:07:35Sam Morril?

  That's, you, you didn't want to go to that wedding.

• 1:07:37Mark Normand?

  That's my argument. I'm using the pet death to get out of shit. So I might not be sad and mourning, but I'm using it.

• 1:07:45Speaker 02

  But I've also talked to other people like they're, they can't get their lives back on track.

• 1:07:49Mark Normand?

  Oh, well, these are losers. I mean, these are just sad weirdos, yeah. But I, I will milk anything.

• 1:07:57Speaker 02

  Sad weirdos because this is a very common thing.

• 1:07:59Mark Normand?

  That's true, that's true. Well, people are lonely.

• 1:08:01Sam Morril?

  Yeah, I think you're allowed to be sad, but I think there's a limit. There's, you can't, you can't.

• 1:08:06Speaker 02

  But what a great way, you, you, you got a five-year-old girl and you get a puppy and it's a great way, are you, are you gonna? Someone's gonna put in a joke about, what's his name?

• 1:08:16Mark Normand?

  Reap.

• 1:08:19Mark Normand?

  I missed it, shit.

• 1:08:19Speaker 02

  Reap almost sounds like rape.

• 1:08:23Mark Normand?

  Reap whistle.

• 1:08:23Speaker 02

  It's an opportunity to say-

• 1:08:24Sam Morril?

  Satiatory reap.

• 1:08:27Speaker 02

  It's, isn't it an opportunity for a lesson about death? Kind of like-

• 1:08:30Mark Normand?

  Yeah, sure, sure.

• 1:08:31Speaker 02

  Hey, in, hey, in eight to 14 years, little, you know, sassy fluffy pants is gonna, is gonna die.

• 1:08:37Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 1:08:38Speaker 02

  You know, like-

• 1:08:39Mark Normand?

  That's how life works.

• 1:08:40Speaker 02

  It's, yeah.

• 1:08:41Mark Normand?

  That's why we do dog ears. Cause you go, oh, he was 78.

• 1:08:44Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:08:45Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 1:08:45Mark Normand?

  Right.

• 1:08:45Sam Morril?

  He wasn't.

• 1:08:46Mark Normand?

  He wasn't. He was, he was nine.

• 1:08:48Speaker 02

  He was just nine. That's it.

• 1:08:50Mark Normand?

  Okay, that's a good one. I love your takes.

• 1:08:51Sam Morril?

  And I like that it's a, it's a bold peeve.

• 1:08:54Mark Normand?

  Yeah, you're willing to go for it.

• 1:08:55Speaker 02

  It's bold and it's gonna get some pushback.

• 1:08:58Mark Normand?

  Okay, your second peeve, you like kids sexually? Ah, that's a hot, okay.

• 1:09:04Sam Morril?

  The new phrase, welcome in.

• 1:09:06Speaker 02

  Everyone, everywhere you go, they say, welcome in. Do you notice this?

• 1:09:10Mark Normand?

  At a restaurant or something?

• 1:09:11Speaker 02

  Yeah, restaurants, but not just restaurants, like you go in the, like, the airport lounge, like, welcome in.

• 1:09:16Mark Normand?

  Oh.

• 1:09:17Speaker 02

  Welcome in. Everything is welcome in.

• 1:09:19Mark Normand?

  Right, never noticed that.

• 1:09:20Speaker 02

  You go, no, I went to Champ's shoe store. They said, welcome in. It's like,

• 1:09:26Speaker 02

  don't, I don't, don't welcome me in here.

• 1:09:27Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 1:09:28Sam Morril?

  I went to the abortion clinic. They said, welcome in.

• 1:09:33Speaker 02

  You haven't noticed that?

• 1:09:34Mark Normand?

  Now that you say it, I, you're right.

• 1:09:36Sam Morril?

  It sounds like it's something I've heard, but yeah, I guess I haven't even picked up on it.

• 1:09:40Speaker 02

  It drives me crazy. I think it's been this corporate mandate of welcome in and, uh, anyway.

• 1:09:49Mark Normand?

  I had a waitress the other day at a Mexican restaurant and she kept saying, like, she would bring her water and she'd go, enjoy. And you're like, okay, thank you. Then she'd bring your food, enjoy, which all makes sense, but I was like, she sang enjoy after everything. It's almost like a tic. So me and my wife are sitting there and I'm a psycho. My wife's like, let it go, drop it. I'm like, I'm just curious. So then I go, hey, uh- Well, what's the, uh, what's the, it's a cold out today, huh? She goes, oh, yeah, cold out. Enjoy. And I go, ah!

• 1:10:15Speaker 02

  Ah, gotcha!

• 1:10:16Mark Normand?

  You're just, you're just on, oh, you're a robot on the loop.

• 1:10:18Speaker 02

  Yeah.

• 1:10:19Mark Normand?

  So, then my wife divorced me. But, the point is, I caught her.

• 1:10:24Speaker 02

  And she hooked up with Dwight Schrute.

• 1:10:26Mark Normand?

  Yeah.

• 1:10:27Sam Morril?

  Only comedians could be annoyed by someone be like, enjoy. You're like, oh, you fucking bitch, something's wrong with you.

• 1:10:32Mark Normand?

  Fuck you!

• 1:10:32Sam Morril?

  Please, this shit.

• 1:10:34Mark Normand?

  I knew it was a rote.

• 1:10:36Sam Morril?

  How dare you tell me to enjoy my food?

• 1:10:38Mark Normand?

  I pre, but she gave me the check and she said enjoy. The check!

• 1:10:41Sam Morril?

  You don't enjoy a pet.

• 1:10:42Mark Normand?

  The check, yeah, that's, that's, don't enjoy.

• 1:10:44Sam Morril?

  Yeah.

• 1:10:45Mark Normand?

  All right, what do you got on the third one here?

• 1:10:47Speaker 02

  Well, this is an obvious one, but, you know, I live in LA. I used to live in New York. I lived in New York for 13 years and then coming back here, like, people using their phones on the New York sidewalks and subways. But also, like, the number of conversations happening on speakerphone.

• 1:11:03Mark Normand?

  Oh!

• 1:11:04Speaker 02

  It's so interesting, like, it's, they're here, you can hear, like, they're like, yeah, well, she said she was gonna be there at 4:00. And you're like, oh, Aunt Connie's coming over at that time. And like, there wa, like, how does this serve anyone? There's no ear pods and it, like, but the street noise, like, but that's the go-to, like, it also, phones also work like this, right?

• 1:11:27Sam Morril?

  No, no one does it anymore.

• 1:11:28Speaker 02

  No one does that anymore.

• 1:11:30Sam Morril?

  I'll do it occasionally. You know what I like doing to someone? So people like, you're just like, okay, I'm on the phone. You know what I mean?

• 1:11:35Mark Normand?

  Oh, yeah.

• 1:11:36Sam Morril?

  Some, cause if you have the headphones in and you're like, yeah, what's up to someone, you run into someone.

• 1:11:40Mark Normand?

  Good point.

• 1:11:41Sam Morril?

  You seem rude, but if you're clearly on the phone.

• 1:11:44Mark Normand?

  They let you, they don't bother you.

• 1:11:45Sam Morril?

  On the phone.

• 1:11:46Mark Normand?

  Right, that's true.

• 1:11:47Sam Morril?

  The headphones could mean anything. If you listen to a podcast and like, why didn't that person, uh, call us to talk to me?

• 1:11:52Mark Normand?

  Yes, I definitely had that.

• 1:11:53Speaker 02

  But the, uh, this, the speakerphone and that, and the other day I was like, I got on an elevator and the guy was talking on, on the speakerphone. It was just me and him in the elevator and it was like... It was continuing and then I was kinda looked at him and he looked at me and he's like, "Oh, sorry." And then he just turned it down a little bit. He turned it down like 20%. I was like, "Oh, thanks."

• 1:12:14Mark Normand?

  Yeah, I was just at a diner in Ohio, not bragging. And I'm in there waiting at the like, the, you know, please wait here to be helped by the hostess. And a lady comes in to pick up a takeout order and she's on the FaceTime. So she walks in, ding ding ding, "I know, right? That bitch cut me off and I said, 'Fuck you, baba.'" I had the, uh, the double egg burger, whatever, whatever. And they're like, "Oh, here it is." She's like, "Thank you." So I'm like, "You can't cut the call off for six seconds to get the takeout order?"

• 1:12:43Sam Morril?

  Yeah, it's never an important call.

• 1:12:44Mark Normand?

  No!

• 1:12:45Sam Morril?

  It's a gossip call.

• 1:12:46Mark Normand?

  It's a gossip call!

• 1:12:47Sam Morril?

  If it's like, "He's doing surgery." I know, "Yeah, thank you so much."

• 1:12:50Mark Normand?

  Exactly!

• 1:12:51Speaker 02

  And you're like, "Okay."

• 1:12:51Sam Morril?

  Yeah, okay.

• 1:12:52Mark Normand?

  Right, "My pet died."

• 1:12:53Sam Morril?

  "He said that?" That's crazy. Yeah, it's insane.

• 1:12:56Speaker 02

  Now, could you, as a way of getting back at these folks, is could you just start singing? Like show tunes or something like that?

• 1:13:03Mark Normand?

  Yeah, I guess so, yeah. Just bring a microphone in.

• 1:13:06Speaker 02

  Just, someone's on that thing now. "Midnight, not a sound from the pavement." Like you're just like-

• 1:13:13Sam Morril?

  You have a good voice.

• 1:13:14Speaker 02

  Hey.

• 1:13:15Mark Normand?

  And then they would look at you and go, "What the hell?"

• 1:13:17Speaker 02

  I sing a little bit.

• 1:13:17Sam Morril?

  That wasn't bad.

• 1:13:18Mark Normand?

  Just do, uh, the Masked Singer.

• 1:13:20Speaker 02

  I fake it.

• 1:13:20Mark Normand?

  Oh, okay.

• 1:13:21Speaker 02

  I should do the Masked Singer.

• 1:13:22Mark Normand?

  That's a big show, just saying.

• 1:13:24Sam Morril?

  How much does it pay?

• 1:13:26Mark Normand?

  Scale. No, but it gets, you know, 80 million views or whatever.

• 1:13:29Sam Morril?

  No, it doesn't.

• 1:13:30Mark Normand?

  I'll pull it up.

• 1:13:31Sam Morril?

  80 million?

• 1:13:31Mark Normand?

  Pull up Anne Hathaway singing, uh-

• 1:13:34Sam Morril?

  If I was Anne Hathaway, that's not-

• 1:13:35Mark Normand?

  Oh, well, he's a, he's no slouch.

• 1:13:37Speaker 02

  If I was on the Masked Singer, I would wanna be the dildo. You know, 'cause it's always like the, the celery and the, and the-

• 1:13:46Mark Normand?

  I've never watched it.

• 1:13:47Speaker 02

  They have phone masks on.

• 1:13:50Mark Normand?

  Oh, I see.

• 1:13:50Speaker 02

  That are like big characters.

• 1:13:52Mark Normand?

  Okay.

  He's like the Gimp Masked Singer.

• 1:13:56Sam Morril?

  That's a good one.

• 1:13:57Mark Normand?

  27 million, okay.

• 1:13:59Sam Morril?

  That's big, though.

• 1:14:01Speaker 02

  Wait a minute.

• 1:14:01Sam Morril?

  So it's Anne Hathaway was under a mask?

• 1:14:03Mark Normand?

  Wait, wait, this is-
