I just got this from outer space.

I have noticed about you, Sal, that for the last two years, you're showing up on Theo.

You have really made all these different podcasts and you're out there doing your own shows.

Are you scratching an itch that you've always had?

And is that really exciting?

I mean, obviously, you've been very successful at it.

I'm sure a lot of that is piggybacking off of the notoriety that you have on Jokers.

But it seems like you've really kind of broken out and had your own thing now.

Comedy is a journeyman's gig.

It really is.

Yeah, you're right about that.

We almost exclusively interview standup comedians with the occasional musician or actor or actress that comes in the store.

And the reason why is, first of all, I'm, you know, I am kind of in awe.

I love the art of comedy.

I love, I'm not,

I'm not good at stand-up comedy myself.

That's why I have a microphone here.

It takes a lot less courage to be on a microphone.

But I love... I think there's kind of a nobility to comedy almost.

And I think it's needed now more than it ever is.
