When your scandal comes out that we all know about, you guys don't know yet, but oh, man, it's coming. Oh, my God. What happened with that? With the Dinklage Snow White thing? Literally not that many parts you could say I was born to play.
That's why I have a problem with Andrew Santino. No. Huge problem with him. What happened? He said, if you're two single adults going to Disneyland. And I was like, speaking of greats.
Okay. Robin Williams. Oh, my God. Mr. Williams, you're like Prozac with a head. Yep. That's going to be on my gravestone.
Speaking of not being good to the community, is the John Stamos thing a real thing?
Oh, my God. Please. I've been wanting to know. Okay. Here's the truth. And please don't be short with this one. Never. I love this story.
Yeah.
My own damn way.
Today's episode is with Brad Williams. And Brad Williams started out with Carl Smancia being a stand-up comic, performs in front of legends like Robin Williams, actually shares some really cool stories with these legends. And then we tap into real insights about his life, his wife, his child, his father, what it's like to be in this industry. And it is quite exciting. If you're ready to laugh and learn, hang back with us today at The George Angle Show with Brad Williams. This is the best way to start a podcast right now, dude.
Oh my God.
No, this is my, oh. Whenever I go to Austin, it's just like, people are like, oh yeah, it's the comedy scene. I'm like, and the breakfast talk.
I like them.
Hot. Okay. Do you want me eating on the pod? Yeah, dude. Very ASMR.
Could be a mug bang.
Are they a sponsor? Should I like hide it?
No, they actually did sponsor my show, so we like to have them. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Shout out Celsius.
Celsius.
Not like that, not like that. Refreshing.
Do a little tapping.
Energizing. What's up, guys? Welcome back to the George Shanko Show. I'm here with Brad and his breakfast.
Yeah, breakfast tacos.
How did Brad Williams get his start in comedy and what was his break with Carlos Mencia?
My beautiful wife, and I am very pumped about this. Dude, I am a huge fan of your stand-up work.
Thank you, sir. I'm stoked to be here, and I don't know if you know this. This is a really big day for you because you fed a dwarf, and that gives you three years good luck.
Dude.
Yeah, that gives you three years good luck. I'm pretty sure you get into heaven. That's the first thing St. Peter asks is, how many dwarves did you feed? Not how many people did you help. How many dwarves did you feed? Like, I fed a dwarf on a podcast. And you're like, oh, well, come right in. Your suite is right over here. It's been reserved for you. We have a whole feeding dwarf section.
Dude, praise God. Praise God. That was the motive behind the breakfast burrito.
No, I totally understand that. I'm happy to be your golden ticket in. Dude, that's a little B&B.
Yeah, exactly.
It's fine. I love it. Thanks for having me on, man. I watched a few other episodes of you having comedians on. I won't do as many impressions as Adam Ray, but hopefully I'm doing fine.
What's your favorite impression?
Oh, my favorite impression that I do? It's... All right. It's of my old manager. He's a great guy. He's a good manager, and no one knows him, but his name is Barry Katz. And when I do the impression, it talks like this. Basically, you just have to say, what would a horse with a learning disability sound like? And that's the impression. That's my favorite one to do. But let's see. Do I have... I have random impressions, but I'm not an impressionist. I don't really... Look at it. Like, I do a... Here. Here's my best one. Got it. Wee Man from Jackass. There. Okay.
Yeah. Nailed it.
Nailed it. Nailed it. I looked exactly like him. Yeah.
The 90s clip that you just posted, like, how I looked in the 90s? Yeah.
Brilliant. Yeah. Watch this. Peter Dinklage. There you go. I'm nailing him. I'm so spot on with these impressions.
Yeah.
I just got into comedy myself.
Okay.
And I've got the pleasure to sit and learn and grow. And my favorite thing right now is to just watch... I know your brain went to a joke. I saw your brain. What was it?
