They're like, oh, man, I was doing that joke.
And then one day it just stopped working.
And it's like, yeah, because people probably can.
tell where you you're you're just not feeling it anymore exactly you're not forcing you're forcing the joke maybe right and i don't want to go up there and force jokes and i don't want to complain about my job because my job is fun like i'm beyond blessed to have this fucking job but it's fun if like i feel like comedy works when you're present in the moment yeah you know what i mean if i go up there i try to force something and i'm just like nah like
I'm the same old Ralph from six years ago.
Let me do the same old jokes.
You know, like people are going to tell.
I mean, so like right now I'm having a lot of not that I'm going to keep just only doing crowd work.
But I I would do very minimal crowd work before.
Like I go on stage and I might do like fucking five minutes tops.
Whereas now I might do like 20, 30 minutes of it.
But if it's fun, it's fun.
It's like with the Porsches and the Japanese dude who's shaping them up.
People might get mad, but if it's cool, it's cool.
I feel like comedy's like that, too.
And it's not like I'm going up there and like...
Fucking, like, I'm having fun, but 90% of the audience is like, this is horrible.
Like, nah, like, I'm pretty, they're laughing, you know what I mean?
