What humorous observations do the hosts make about being hungover?

Unknown 0:06
Yeah, man. Hey, we're here. We might be drunk, folks. I might be hungover. Oh, good. Well, let's see. You're in the right place. I'm feeling it, dude. We can have a cocktail. Wow, look at that. Noir, Florida. You're a good photographer, buddy. Thanks, pal. Love the lights. Love the sold out. Great. Three shows in the Tampa Theater. Wow, look at that suit. Yeah, we had a good time, man. Wow, that's a great shot. Yeah, he got some great shots. I would say I feel like I got it Thursday. So first show, we had three shows, two Friday, one Thursday. I was like, I got it Thursday. And then the early show Friday was even better. And I was like, oh, I'm not going to top that show. And I was right. The late show Friday was a little stiff.
Unknown 0:44
Not bad, but not at the level. Early show, I was like... Oh, this is what I want on every joke. That's nice. Nice to get it early, too.

What experiences do the hosts share about performing at shows?

Unknown 0:52
Yes. Because I've had the one where you get it on the last show and you're like, thank God we got that one. I know. Yeah, I started definitely pounding a little more Bodega Cat in between those shows because I'm good. Yeah, yeah. Does that affect your performance if the crowd isn't giving you? Of course. Yeah. I mean, if you're fucking a girl and she's just laying there, it ain't great. That's perfect. You'd almost rather the faking because at least then it gets your ego up. Although Cosby is probably the same either way because he's kind of a slow sit-on-a-stool type of guy. Oh, yeah. Either way, it's like I don't need any energy. I can handle this. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, man. No, I think – yeah, I need energy.
Unknown 1:27
I need – I mean it's so – and yeah, I slow down when they're slow and then you just kind of get worse laughs I think. You can't really build momentum. Right. You make the mistake of then going too fast. Either way, it adapts. It's not good. Yeah. Now, what is this? Like your sixth hour? Something like that. I don't know. Do you have any taping nerves still?

How do the hosts discuss the impact of audience energy on performance?

Unknown 1:46
None, dude. That's nice. I do feel like with this one, I ran it so much leading into it that it got like – so I did Carnegie Hall in December, and I feel like it's – my friend saw it in Stanford like two weeks ago, and he was like, oh, it's like a different hour.
Simon Rex 1:59
Whoa.
Unknown 2:00
He's like, you cut so much fat. So you do like eight hours, nine hours a week on the road. Totally. And you keep running it, and you're like, oh, I – you keep believing in that one or two lines that aren't hitting. And you're like, I like that line. But then you're like, let me just try a different line once. And you replace it and it's better. And you're like, fuck, I should have done that a month ago. Totally. You get married to dumb lines. I know. That you're like, that's a good line. And it's not. But you ever have that thing on Reddit where someone's like, they quote one of the lines and you're like, that's the one I liked that no one else liked. And you're like, that was for that one guy. I'll keep a couple.
Unknown 2:30
Okay, okay. You can only have a couple. Once you do too many of those, you become a shitty comic. That's a good point, yeah. Because you're just like, yeah, this special's for me. Yeah, it's a fun, we did a little fun. Wow, look at that. You look 10 feet tall there. Yeah, I should have gotten those pants taken in one more time. I think it's a look. I like it. It's a look. A little baggy. A little, like, what do you call it? Like old Hollywood suits. Yeah, exactly. And look at this. Hey! Oh, yeah, Swanson and Vitor. We end up having, like, a three-hour breakfast the morning of. I love a three-hour breakfast. Love it. I love when the vibes are so good no one wants to leave. Yes, yes. That's a real comedy thing. Like, I'll get in a green room.
Unknown 3:05
I never want to leave it. I know. He wants us to do a comedy cruise. He's like, Let's do a comedy. It's the only sober guy I know that wants to go on a fucking boat. Right. And he was like, would you do it? And I'm like, honestly, no. And then he told me he has Jessel neck and he said I'd need Saudi money. Ah, that's a great line. Saudi on the seas. But I was like, dude, I hate I'm not a boat. You hate boats, right?
