What did the host announce about quitting alcohol and the episode's premise?

David Boyle 0:12
Alright, you are back with comedian David Boyle and I'm quitting alcohol. So, I have read all the comments from this week's Fucked Up Friday and I like it. I like what you've done there. A little bit of fucking quality control. The Degenes have fucking stamped their authority on what is... What is allowable on a fucked up Friday? We had Zach's story. It was 28 minutes long and I barely took a breath. I reserved judgment. The only thing I said was it was too fucking long. I didn't want to read out such a long fucking story. It takes effort for me to read out that long, but I reserve judgment on the actual story, but the Digenys did not. They were not happy with what went on this Friday. The comments range from, bring back history.
David Boyle 1:19
Bring back the history podcast to it was too wordy to it was just playing gay. There was one comment that just said gay. And I like that. I like that I don't have to fucking voice my opinion on the stories because I'm just trying to get the stories in.

How did listeners react to last week's 'Fucked Up Friday' stories and what feedback stood out?

David Boyle 1:42
I don't care what they are. I'll just read them out. And then the comments can take over after that. Last week's, the Degenes were fired up. Best fucked up Friday story ever. It was short. It was sweet. They loved it. The following week, the Degenes wanted blood. I didn't even really read them until Zach messaged me saying, I haven't listened to my story yet, but the comments aren't nice. Welcome to my world, cunt. Welcome to my world. That's what I was going to say as well. If you ever wondered what it felt like to be a stand-up comedian and the feedback you get on stage, it's not really exactly the same, but it's a little analogy of what it might feel like. Send in a fucking fucked up story. Do your best.
David Boyle 2:41
Think it's an absolute fucking killer like Zach did. And I know he did because he's like, these idiots don't know what the fuck they're talking about. That was a masterpiece. The only thing he did concede was he used esoteric twice. And that was a little too much. It wasn't that it was about 20 minutes too long. It was that he overused the word esoteric. And I'll tell you what another simile of fucking stand-up comedy is. Wait, should I explain the other one first? Yeah, I'll do the first one first. So if you ever want to feel like what it's like to be a stand-up comedian, write in a fucking fucked up Friday story. Put your heart and soul into it.

Why were listeners upset about Zach's 28-minute story and what criticism did it receive?

David Boyle 3:28
Think it's going to murder. Try and make it funny. Try and make it entertaining. Think it's going to be absolute fucking gold. Send it in. I'll read it out. And then see what the comments say. That's kind of what it's like to be a stand-up comedian. You're fucking leaving yourself vulnerable as fuck. And here's the fucking kicker. Even if it is killer, even if it is fucking unbelievable and murders, there's going to be like a handful of people that are just going to hate it. That are just going to say something fucking vicious just for the sake of saying something vicious. And you need to be able to process that. You need to be able to read the vicious thing and not let it affect you. And it does. Like, well, I don't give a fuck anymore.
David Boyle 4:23
Some things still get through a little, but I really don't give a fuck anymore. And that's just more an energy thing than it is a care thing. Like, I just don't have the energy to care. If I had extra energy, I would care, probably. But I just don't. I'm like, ugh. So I just let it go. It doesn't bother me at all. But you are untrained. Y'all are untrained. So you got to feel it. And I want the Degenes to fucking get in the comments for the fucked up Fridays every week now. I want some fucking feedback. I want the writers to be put to the fucking test. I hope this doesn't scare off the writers. If you're fucking scared, just make it anonymous. Don't be a pussy. Send something in and get some fucking feedback.
David Boyle 5:15
Get a reality check, cunts. So that is an analogous to being a comedian. The other thing is, like, last week's story, Jared fucking sent it in. And Jared was like, sorry, man, fucking, I'm no good at writing. I haven't written a story in ages.
