What's up, everyone? I'm here with Hari Kondabolu, comedian you may know who joined us on Subway Takes a couple of months ago, maybe a couple weeks ago, whose take was very, very, very, very, very, very popular. I call it a triple-decker, which means it hit over a million on Instagram, on TikTok, and on YouTube Shorts. That rarely happens. I'd say it happens once every...
hundred episodes we get a triple decker so he's he's a very very limited club of people his take his take was that there are too many states in america we need to get we need to cut 10 what the hell is up harry how are you i'm good man is that right i'm a triple decker you're a triple decker it never ever literally i i think you're probably one in three total so what's your take too many states in america we need to cut 10 oh
Yeah. Cool. Did you know? Did you know that that was going to happen?
Yeah, I knew it was going to do well. I knew when we were doing it that it was going to do well.
It felt really good. It was exactly what a great subway take needs to be, which is smart but dumb.
and completely digestible in the initial take. No further explanation needed. You get 100% agree or 100% disagree off the bat.
Well, not only did he join to... Or actually, not only did he interrupt, he actually hopped in with some additional context and advice. Like, the guy was eagerly listening to our conversation for...
whatever 15 minutes and then was like you know what i gotta say something i gotta say something smart actually because didn't he so he started talking about the senate yeah he's talking about how you gotta change the number of senators then if you're gonna have less states and maybe three which i didn't quite understand but i said oh yeah
Well, I think that's the coolest thing about New York is that you see two guys talking into their MetroCards, and first you come in and you add value. You say, hey, I like what you guys are saying here, but it would actually be more interesting if you did this because then you'd get rid of the senators. And then you say, by the way, why are you talking into your MetroCards?
You don't open with, what are you guys doing? Why are you talking into MetroCards? You open with, I'm going to impress you with some facts and skills and knowledge that might not make any sense at all. And then I'm going to inquire as to why you're talking into your MetroCards.
That guy had very never-been-on-the-internet-before vibes. Yeah. Have you tracked him down? No, I've checked the comments to see if anyone's like, that's my dad because it happens often. It doesn't happen with Subway Takes a Lot, but it does happen with Keep the Meter Running where people are always like, that's my dad.
And then the best part is when it's a cab driver with many kids, which many cab drivers do have many kids. So there will be like 15 common threads. that are like, that's my dad. And at first, I was like, this is a joke, right? And then what I realized is that cab drivers generally have, yeah, they just have like 15 kids.
And that's my dad. No, that thing ripped. It did really, really well. Do you have any regrets?
Yeah, I mean, I was thinking one thing that you may have regretted was wearing a red shirt.
But the thing is, your take is so fun because you didn't give up on anyone. You didn't just cut off Florida. Because you could There probably is technology. We could ask bad evil man Elon Musk, who has technology to make tunnels, it sounds like. We could ask him for some sort of massive saw that just chops Florida off. On the map, it looks not that hard to do.
Yeah, if you look at a map, it cannot be that complicated to just saw it off.
No, there are plenty of man-made beaches, man-made oceans. I mean, Dubai built islands.
Well, no one's ever done it.
But it was this before. Like, I don't think here's what I remember. Yeah, I think I pitched the idea of like, we'll take Canada. I think I said that in the episode. I can't remember for sure. Hmm. but it was pre Donald Trump being like, I'm going to, I'm going to buy Canada or whatever. Like it was, it was such a dumb idea when I said it. Yeah.
And then like two weeks later, it was like, no, no, I'm actually going to just like, he watched the video. Well, he wants to buy Greenland.
