20 tickets for Antifa in Portland.
It's a little different.
Antifa crowd is on that side.
What's the process like with pitching specials to different networks?
I hear a lot of comedians always talk about like, hey, I went to Amazon, I went to Hulu, I went to Netflix, but I've never really heard the process of what that's like.
Are you just walking in with a copy and everyone just like awkwardly sits there and watches it and they decide?
No, usually you go like ahead of time.
At the bare minimum, I think you want like an audio of at least 40 minutes of it.
And then you could send that out to different... I mean, everybody has a different process, but if they're already hip to you and into you, then it's a little easier that way.
And then some comms just produce it on their own.
I think that probably the cheapest you can get it done for is probably like 100 racks to get like a decent...
special but it's gonna usually cost a little more than that to get it like real tight if you want like a five camera set up the crane shot which is a cool cool shot that's gonna cost some money you know but uh and then you can produce it yourself and then you go try to sell it after that it's another angle but yeah hulu was already you know they already been working with them for a while so and then you know once ali wong was attached like you know she she doesn't fuck around man she's about her business home so she she uh
it was kind of like you know a little easier to sell we they had 45 minutes of audio that they're they're listening to and then they came and saw a live set of mine okay and they were like all right cool let's do it that would be awkward if they went to the live one and then we're like let's reconsider oh my god
Or they're the ugly person that got kicked back.
Like, no, I work for Hulu.
He's the president of Hulu.
Because in the music business, we have this thing called playbacks, which are the most awkward thing in the world, where whether it be like Apple, Spotify, Amazon, a bunch of people that you've never met before, you all get on Zoom.
And then you play your music for just a wall of strangers that have different internet connection and speakers and everyone's head is beating at a different beat.
