In 2010, I was doing Last Comic Standing there, and I got there a day early, and I hung out with a Boston comic. I think his uncle is the guy they caught that was missing in action, the Irish gangster.
David Mosher is the comedian. Yeah, and he was, I said, yeah, man, were you performing Worcester, sir? And then he took the joint. He goes, no, bro, it's Worcester. Okay. Thank you for telling me, bro.
I had a first comedy album, the one he did with Roaring or something.
Yeah. That was great. That's a great album. There was a place like that, a Boston place, but not in a documentary, but Will Durst, he's a San Francisco comedian. Sure. He had a room like that called the Comedy Zoo or the Zoo. Holy City Zoo, right? Holy City Zoo. Yeah.
And there's a comedian that came out of there that's a killer comic and he's still alive and he opened for me and he opened for Rob Schneider and Papa and he opened for a lot of people. Larry Bubbles Brown. Oh, cool. And he's an old school guy. After every joke, he goes, mer. Mer. But he did Letterman in 1992. And then he did it again in 2006.
So he has a record for doing Letterman between 30 years. Wow. But he's one of those comedians that never left San Francisco.
I love Robert Schimel, man.
You could just go anywhere. I used to see his face when I go to El Paso comic strip, and all the dudes you're talking about, they were all there.
That's crazy how when they start hating the character, but not the person.
Yeah, right? Just like the guy, they used to have that puppet in New York. Oh, Otto and George. Yeah. Greg Giraldo, when I opened for him back in the day, back in Addison Improv, he told me that he would say the nastiest shit, that puppet, and this lady threw shit at the puppet, but not at Otto.
Wow, his buddy. Weird, man. Weird, man.
Was it a knife or a sharp bed spring?
Or a sharp bed spring, bro. Something, anything. Whatever you got that you polished down to a point. You ever watched the fabulous Ms. Measel? What's that? The Fabulous Mrs. Maisel is about a female comic growing up in the 50s on Amazon. No.
Mrs. Maisel. Oh, she's Mrs., all right.
Do you remember the ventriloquist that did a one-minute set on her show? Yeah.
What's another one?
You mentioned a plane crash because I was there when he did that joke. I was in the back of the comedy store. He said American Airlines is hiring him. And then he said, because I remember who survived that airline. And he said, fuck that. Everybody says, how come they don't build a plane out of the black box or sit me next to the black box? Sit me next to a fucking baby. Baby survived.
Give me a hold of that baby, bitch. A baby survived? Yeah, a baby survived an airline, the flight one time. And he said, I want to hold that baby. I want to hold somebody's baby in an airplane. Just in case it goes down. Because if a baby survives, I'm going to survive.
I'm fucking it all up.
Yeah. I hung out with Brian Holtzman. I hung out with Brian Holzman and his mom in San Antonio, Texas.
