Yes. Keep the theaters alive. It is in theaters. And the hope is that if enough people see it, we keep getting to make them. But this is like, imagine for like two years you're waiting for this movie or a year. And today is the day it was out. And we went to the first screening that fans went to today at 3 p.m. right before we came here. And we got surprised.
Enjoy it. Enjoy the movie.
Enjoy the movie. Have a great time. And then my tour starts in January in Milwaukee. Alone? It's Ben Schwartz and Friends, so it's me doing improv. Got it. So we'll do improv, but we're playing more casinos than we've ever played. Whoa, a casino. A bunch of them. We did a couple. Now we're like, well, I guess we'll just do a couple more.
But we're playing the Beacon again for New Yorkers in April. Hell yeah. And then we're going, I'm doing Sydney Opera House in May. Nice. Oh, that's legendary. That's a beauty. That'd be great. Yeah. There's like all these venues that I always want to play and that's the last ones.
I know. It's crazy. And also, you guys know, when we, like I played Royal Albert Hall this year, you won't get paid a ton of money to do these venues because it's so expensive. Yes. Radio City Music Hall, 6,000 people. You don't get paid as, like it's, you don't get paid more. No.
And also it's like, I don't even care. I know. I just want to say that I played, I want to be in that theater. I want to say that I was on the same stage as blank. Right. And it doesn't even matter. Like we have our other shows that we can make a little bit of money, but there are some that you're like, man, so Sydney Opera House was one of those and Royal Opera Hall, Radio City was one of those.
If you do two, you make some money. Yeah, I bet that's how it works. Oh, you're going all over. Yeah, you got to go all over. Oh, Vets is a great one. We sold out Sydney Opera House, so we did a state theater show right before it. Hell yeah. Wow. And then we're going to go to Melbourne. But this is great. You guys ever been to Paramount Theater in Seattle? Yes.
One of my favorite venues to perform comedy. It's nice. And Prince used to play there, or Prince has played there. I didn't know that. I like sometimes looking through and seeing what other people have played.
It's rejectedjokes.com because when I started to freelance jokes for Letterman, I used to take all the ones that he rejected and I would perform them to zero people. And then I put those videos on the Internet and that's how I started. Whoa. That's smart. Crazy. And because there's a low bar already. And nobody's in the audience, so they all bomb. And then I just release them.
And that's like how I. Wow. I haven't updated this in a long time.
Bodegacatwhiskey.com. You have your own whiskey? Oh, yeah. We'll give you a bottle. How does that happen? Do you go to where they make it? It's a long story. It's a long process. We make it in a bathtub, and then we ship it out. God, how exciting. I can't believe you guys make the labels for this and everything.
It's building, for sure.
Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's awesome. We're going to retire on this beauty. Where are you going to be?
Oh, okay. I'll hear it.
Austin is, ooh, dude, that Paramount Theater is really fun, too.
Atlanta, great one. I play the Tabernacle. It's great. Birmingham. Durham's such a fun city. Yeah, I love it.
Hey, we're playing the same one. I'm playing that Vets, too, in Providence. It's a good room.
Oh, do you like food? Are you a food person?
So I'll be back in April. Look how sold out you are. Go up. Look how exciting this is.
So many of them sold out.
