Before we start today's show, Story Warriors, you should know me and Big J are always on the road. Come see me this weekend in Portland, Maine at the Empire Comedy Club. Next Saturday night on September 26th, I'll be at the Brokerage Comedy Club in Belmore, New York. After that, I got Rochester, North Charleston, South Carolina, and more. We're going on the road together. Story Wars is coming to a city near you. We'll be in Austin, Texas. There's a few tickets left for the late show on October 28th, and then we're going to be at the Comedy Store in Los Angeles on November 4th and 5th, right before we make our way to Skank Fest. Get those tickets for Skank Fest to watch three Story Wars shows live in New Orleans at skankfest.com.
Go to my website, lewisofskanks.com, for all the other tickets.
And you go to bigjcomedy.com for all of my dates. I have Cleveland Hilarities on deck. Emerald City Comedy Club in Seattle. First time coming there in a long time. Timonium, Maryland. So much, so much more. Look for a city near you at bigjcomedy.com and get your tickets. See you soon. All right. Let's start the show.
Fill her up. You're listening to the Gas Digital Network.
Ladies and gentlemen, it's Story Wars!
Give it up for the Story Warriors, Big Jay Oakerson and Luis J. Gomez! Yes! Yes! It is true, everybody. We are here. Make some fucking noise, New York City. Make some news. Make some news, New York City. Make some news. Make some news. Shoot your guns
in
here.
Judges spent the weekend in Norway. Make some news for your students. Make some news, everybody. Make some news. That's a
lot of
news.
Well, it went away quick. It became Irish
quick. Look, we sold out like 75 weeks in a row here at
the
New York Comedy Club.
Holy shit, dude.
1,500 tickets. Yeah, people that don't know at home how large this comedy club is, the largest comedy club in the history of the world. It's
fucking crazy. This is our world record. We're going for a world record now. Yeah, dude,
fuck you, Shane. Fuck you, Nate.
Where's my camera? How many people here are familiar with the game Story Wars?
And who is not familiar with the game Story Wars? Nobody wasn't familiar. Who are you booing?
Dude, this guy's got an in utero Nirvana chest tattoo. I do.
You
seem too
young
for that.
That's so weird because I have a naked baby tattooed on my arm, which
is pretty
crazy. I have a full Dave Grohl on my back.
How do the hosts kick off Story Wars and explain the game rules?
I
would have said Chris Nova Selleck. Yeah, I made a good choice. Good ref. Good ref, doggie. It's a very simple game. If you're unfamiliar with it, we'll explain it once we get our amazing panel of contestants up here. Our first contestant, with a record of 0 and 1 here on Story Wars, he has a brand new Netflix special called Family Plan available right now. Go watch it. It is the hilarious Jared Freed.
Thank you.
Great to be here. Thank you for having me. So
happy to have you back, Jerry. You haven't been here in probably a year and a half. The first time we did the Nashville Comedy Festival was the last time you were on Story
Wars. Yes, I love this. I'm just happy to be a part of the Gas Digital family. I'm doing like the wash. You know, some people do like the Tonight Show at SNL. Yeah. I do like this and... The Real Ass Podcast. Part
of the problem with Dave Smith.
Yeah, this is like the poor man's wash.
Yes, it is.
Which I'm proud to be. Howard
Stern's only doing one show a week now,
so
this is pretty much what you got.
This is it. So it's great. It's great to be here amongst all the people who smoked weed in the parking lot before here. There we go.
Oh, yeah, dude. The most aggressive pothead ever.
That was
crazy, sir. No other potheads act
that way. That was nuts. That guy got the wrong blunt. Yes.
Our second competitor, he's got a record of 0 and 5 here on Story Wars. That must hurt. That laugh must have hurt when he's in the wakes listening to that. He's fine, dude. It was embarrassing. He likes coming from behind. He's an underdog. He's got an amazing podcast called The Do-Rag and The Deer Tag. Plus, Naeem Ali saves the world. Ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for Naeem Ali.
Hey, what's up, guys?
