From Corolla One Studios in Glendale, California, this is The Adam Corolla Show. Adam's guest today, comedian Jackie Fabulous. Plus the news with Alicia Krauss. And now, Adam Corolla. Yeah, get it on.
Got to get it on. No choice but to get it on. Mandate, get it on. And welcome back, Jackie Fabulous. Variety. 10 comics to watch, 2024. Probably cracked the top five by now. She's got a stand-up special. It's on Hulu. I watched it last night. It's very funny. Yeah, it's called You Can Leave. And I think you did it in New York?
Yeah, Triad Theater, July 12, 2025.
That's when you filmed it?
Yeah.
It's nice.
It's a good 40 minutes. I knew it wasn't an hour because I was having a breakdown during, but back to you. I'll get into that later.
Yeah. Well, listen, first off, there used to be tons of rules, and now there are no more rules. No. You can do whatever you want in show business or out of show business. All the rules that used to exist about broadcasting and lengths and times and everything, it's all gone now. You just, whoever's funny, whatever length, who cares? But I, sometimes I look at a standup special and I, you know, I check it and it says, oh, it's an hour and seven minutes or something. I'm like, that's kind of a commitment. 40 minutes felt right.
That's kind of long to me. It's hard for me to hold my attention for any superstar comic for an hour now.
Right. And 40 is your length. So it felt good. That was funny.
Yeah.
Thank you. I didn't want to do it when I did it. Why not? My reps were like, because you know how you have to have something to promote periodically throughout this career of being a comic. And I had just moved out from my husband's house a few weeks before that. And I'm like, I'm going to cry during. I don't even really have the discipline to memorize and tour. And they were like, we don't care. You're filming it on this date in this venue. You need something. We can't sell you if all your stuff is old. Right. And I did it. And I don't remember. The taping, what I said, and when I had to watch it for edits, I lied. I didn't watch anything because it was just so traumatic when I did it. And I knew what I did.
I remember the set. I know my joke. I'm like, I know what you guys saw. Fuck it now.
I think most times when people are feeling a certain way, like not up to fill in the blank, stand up set or hiking five miles or whatever that thing is that you're not up to.
Yeah.
And someone goes, just get up. Let's go. We're going. Here we go.
How does Jackie Fabulous describe her stand-up special?
And you're always happy you did it. I think. Yes. And we've lost that. part of society where we've deemed everyone mean who goes, come on, you can do this. Let's go. You're not, you're okay. You're not hurt. You're fine. You know, and everyone, everyone's, I, I found myself arguing with most adults explaining to them, you're fine. And they're going, I'm not fine. So they're making an argument for not being fine. And I'm going, you're fine. Go hunt. Come on, let's go.
Exactly. And you're needed. That attitude is needed. Yeah. My managers got tired of me bugging them about my bookings and my calendar. And I'm like, well, you know how you can get all that to change? You can stop complaining and go tape this set. And then I'm like, they're right.
God damn it, they're right. And now you watch it up on Hulu and you go, I'm so glad those guys kicked me in the ass. I am. I'm not going to watch it. I still haven't. Oh, you still haven't?
I'm not going to watch it. I know what it is. And I know, you know how you just know the jokes? You know what you did when you did it? There's no need to watch it.
Isn't it?
