Even on the round table, I kind of would like sit, sit, sit, boom. I would always sort of time out the when to punch in and then I would kind of sit quiet again.
And sometimes you would say a joke and then a person would act it out and that was their whole thing was just acting out your jokes.
a person who didn't prepare at all.
And you're like, wait a second. You're just repeating my joke.
Oh, that's a fucking peeve.
yeah that was fun yes because i don't like them competing with other comics i'm like i want you to have your joke i'll have my joke you have your joke and then everybody you know instead of like the person that doesn't shut up i know i know and you ever had a i've been a few writers room you ever had a joke bomb in a writer's room yeah because you're amongst your peers everybody's like

Thank you. I think for me, I'm just like, let's have a good time. Let's just chat and hopefully be funny. I'm not trying to put on this whole facade or something. It's kind of what you see is what you get. Everything I'm talking about is stories from my life.
and talking about you know my mom my wife just like dumb stuff that's happened to me yeah um but yeah i think i think it maybe feels very casual because of my accent and i talk slow so it feels like we're just kind of moseying on stage like what do you guys want here let's talk about something yeah because it's so relatable
Is that the Ryman? That's the Beacon. Ah, the Beacon. The end of this last tour. Is that a vest? No. What's that?
