ifolor.fi Kerran eräällä vantaalaisella miehellä venyi After Work It pitkäksi. Huonon omatunnon vaivaama hurvittelija riensi Alepan kautta kotiin, missä hän valmisti ärtyneelle puolisolleen sovitteluaterian. Zorizori pasta sai ajan saatossa nimen Zorizoa pasta. Sitä syödään tänä päivänä ympäri maailmaa. Alepa. Urbaani legenda.
Hey everybody, I am back on the road. July 16th through 18th, Stanford, Connecticut at New York Comedy Club. July 25th, added a late show, Club Soda at Montreal for Just for Laughs. And then July 31st and August 1st, four shows at the Albany Funny Bone. All those tickets available at dansoda.com. I'll see you there. Let's build this hour together. but it was cool seeing you film another special at the Beacon.
You were there, right?
No, I didn't get to go. I was on the road. Oh, yeah, okay. But I talked to you right before you did it, and I thought it was really cool you were doing it because obviously this special Ridiculous, out now on Netflix, go watch it. But you did hilarious there. I did? No.
I don't mean to point at you.
Yeah, I like that. But didn't you do hilarious at the Beacon?
No.
I did Live at the Beacon.
Live at the Beacon. Yeah, that was my first. Sapuku. This is podcast Sapuku.
Yeah. He's going to, I'm going to fucking. Cut that out.
Live at the Beacon. Edit that shit. Actually, leave it in.
Warts and all. You're right. I did do Live at the Beacon there. Yeah.
Live at the Beacon was great. You walked up. That was like one of my favorite intros where you like walked. Through the front entrance.
Yeah, it went through the front door.
And it was funny watching people be like, because that's how much phones have progressively gotten worse.
Yeah.
And when you watch the intro of Live at the Beacon, people just let you walk in and a couple of people go, oh, hey, Louie.
Yeah.
Where now they'd be like, salve.
Yeah, definitely.
You got to like walk into a venue.
Yeah, it was really, I shot the first one there because George Carlin had done one there and it was one of his best, I thought.
Have you done that?
I stole the open from him and Pryor. They both did that. Yeah, just to come out on stage? Come out. Pryor went out. The lights are still up. That's my favorite intro. The people are running to their seats. And then the guy comes up with a camera and he goes, get the fuck out of here. And then he goes, now take the picture. Yeah, yeah.
And then the shit breaks. Yeah, that's what he does.
How does Louis C.K. describe filming his Beacon special and opening a special on stage?
The white people are in, black people are in your seat. In your seats. Crazy. But yeah, so he did that one. And then Carlin did one where he walks off the street I stole it. I love it. Walks off the street from Broadway into... He put a little thing. He put a guy playing the saxophone outside. So when you... But he went out and he just immediately said... And people are going crazy, but he's like telling them... He just wants to get to the first joke. He goes, have you ever noticed that a lot of the women at anti-abortion rallies are women you wouldn't want to fuck in the first place? Yeah. First words out of his mouth. Yeah. Just... brush back pitch yeah just absolutely opening up again just punching right in the stomach so good he didn't do a lot of fanfare of coming out and being like no no he just went got right to the joke and so i uh i took that from him this special actually opens similarly just that i get i i say hello tiny bit but then i tell a joke right away
You also come in, what I liked, what you did audio-wise is it's the music is all you hear until you say hello. Yeah, yeah, that's right. It drops out right before, then you go, hello. And I like that because there's something, I don't know if it's because I'm a comic when I watch specials and the crowd is too like...
And the guy's like, thank you, thank you. You're like, just fucking get to it. Now, you don't want to watch somebody being adored by people that are in the room.
