0:00 two one fucking kids today fucking kids today fucking kids today hasn't everybody said that I mean, I'm saying that from a, like, I mean, every, I think every generation is better than the next in terms of how, like, things, this is the best times I've ever been for most people. You're at Columbia. high school in parsippany new jersey which is like a hyper diverse kind of place um at least

2:41 hat turns on I'm like okay the show itself the energy is dope but the show like Because I know, you know, that's a thing. It's like two minutes in. it is at all uh but this is how you know because there's gay black people and no one's gonna choose I'm going to put on a Madonna halter top and some Jordans and tell an Indian dude how to live his life.

4:46 We can all agree that I don't know if he's gay or not, but no man hates homosexuals that much. she interrupts i start talking to her for like two minutes and that goes terribly it's just like and then out of my corner of my left eye i see the three girls that invited me to do the show i'm first i'm like i'm i'm not even mad at this point i'm just like in shock i'm like this

7:11 bounce dude and so the tech people meaning the people that are coordinating the electronics that the tech has to go. And there are some people who are like, what the fuck is going on? And I'm like, my trigger word is entitled. like one of these sort of oh shit that's a good bit moments right and i tell them that and they And then at some point, I'm like, this is how you know being gay can't be a choice, right? And he starts me and i started talking to him and then at some point i'm like

10:23 like this what are you going to do when when some real bad shit happens in the world? On the spot, I tried to save it it i tried to save it with a bit you know and it fucking bombs Like I'll be fine. that that happened like uh you know that's not all of us or we don't know what just happened Don't ever do that. life with the conversation just gets awkward it's, you know, her father's not in her life with the conversation just gets awkward.

12:52 um, what do you mean? he's not in your life or whatever. livid but i'm i know myself well enough to be like i'm not going to talk to anybody if i'm angry That shouldn't have happened. Because I'm about to just fucking Instagram something. Smart man. shouldn't have been there in the first place no no. No one said that to me. One girl who was the suite mate of one of the organizers DM'd me and just yelled at

15:43 Instagram. When I was at SNL, I worked on Update. And like being in this cycle. besides thank you for the support. all right, So I can't even process three kids that were Whereas like all these people that are like actually on my squad are not as vocal as they can be. And he immediately hits on the fact that it's crazy that these kids came up to him and apologized.

19:11 And it's all been fine. comedian right you're obviously a guy who jokes about shit right so that's not a you're not saying like the only reason why i would do this is for money because colleges pay a lot of money yeah They're deciding to be outraged. but people have been through some kind of life where a life experience where is a job that like i'm here like it's not who i am as a human being necessarily i'm i will go for funny

22:55 Okay. I really appreciate you guys coming out. A long time ago. And I go, dude, I go, think about what the joke says. The best kind. There's nothing confirming a positive stereotype yes it's like a big dick And when they get free of their parents, they want to establish that they're different and Because they get online and other morons that are the same age as them confirm with

26:33 No, we need safe spaces for comedians. get whatever we want in our hands you know i mean like there's instant gratification so there's like I mean, if you say gay black on stage today in a really liberal, very progressive environment. But they don't because the comedians that are going to be their leaders aren't even going to be funny. But like it's like if I went up there and I said, Asians are the shit, and fuck Whitey,

28:19 I'm just trying to be heard, you know? he's doing. pep rally dog i'm here to tell jokes you weren't hired to do a speech about this event right i'm i'm not this is not a pep rally dog i'm here to tell jokes you weren't Throwing shit up there, trying new bits. People are now going to go, do the gay black joke. Gay black. Hey the gay black joke now everybody knows it everyone knows it people are now gonna go

29:53 gay black somewhere Don't do that, please. Yeah. The reason why they don't do colleges is because the kids are too fucking sensitive. emails and getting back into this shit of just like they said what like if i didn't i would And two is, good press, right? Oh yeah That's been my favorite I mean who among us wholeheartedly he said i'm almost a comedian before i'm an american yeah he said that on this right

32:51 Yeah, that's a good question. Lovely people. Good luck with that yeah this shit's kinship that i think you have as a comic. Yeah. They're kissing ass and they're being fake. I've been, I mean, if you wanted to look at it on paper, although I always consider myself Somewhere around 92. Let me flip this around and it'll fuck the whole joke up. Not real babies.

35:28 Like right now, I have two bits. I'm going to freeball this shit last night. then I did one in 2012 that I like to do the ice house. lot lately even though it's subconscious where I write out concepts sober and then I fire up then I have to write it out on paper of my laptop i shut the laptop I know I'm done I go to bed I got this fucking And it did well At the comic store, but then it crushed at the improv.

38:20 Why not? Of course. it's the most important thing, I think, And especially if you're doing, like, the New York City trip where you're doing, like, the cellar, and then you're doing the stand, I just started doing it. been doing it and once i saw like that process i'm like oh these motherfuckers i think i work So it's like, how can I seem relaxed while doing this but still emphasize

41:27 that really works of your bits kind of shit Well, maybe it's better to introduce this distrust of animals in this way. was really really like dead on the money he said i know what it's like to be disappointed by someone jobs they fucking hate and and cutting back on other things to have enough money to go out and It's like cramming for tests And I admit I've done that a few times where I've just been like,

44:12 is how you do anything and that's there's something to that too there's there's something So you lower your own personal expectations. Yeah, I know that mentality. because there's no capital investment to fucking it's all just mental investment and hard work and well everybody but a lot of people think they're funny and then just forget that fucking the work part where it's

47:03 cup of coffee and and then my sets in two hours i think i'm gonna take a nap yeah yeah and then you feel like you I mean, there's a real clear process between being a symphony violinist, going to school, Tell me how you go from doing comedy to becoming a writer for SNL. everybody's different man yeah and there's no one no one who's right like if you went

49:11 Yeah, I mean. bunch of fucking insane shit in my brain and this is how i think it i gotta figure out how i'm gonna Like, that's right! Yeah. from the moment you unless they can say it and you see it coming it still hits you because it's so know until it comes out of your mouth and you're like oh look what i did there well it's also you're you talk in front of a microphone raised above them on a stage right this is a very unique

52:26 That's nothing or escape my life or whatever it is people are seeking. Because of his jokes. I don't know. You could just take a pill Your girl might be mad at you if you laugh at something you're not supposed to laugh at. just like um uh one night she got mad at me because i closed the door too loud because she and talk about see i told you that the door shit was too loud you know that's the fucking that's my favorite part of doing

55:07 It's like, No, no, no. Was it weird? You know, the process with the booker there was like very simple because they're like tough not to it's it's so tough well you're smart with the thing that you're doing with the instagram I did talking about Columbia one night at the Cellar, and he went up after me and immediately goes, He's a man. But I got it.

58:12 Safari's expensive and I don't mean to sound fucking. Were you in one of those open air Jeeps? Yeah. it's good you could just leave this shit away i broke my phone when i was in hawaii Hang up. And it was great. Why? It's like, Here it is. consuming things It's going to go up a lot now. I feel like within the next 10 years, that's going to be a normal thing that you could

1:01:42 A lot of them look like that. it's good for the wrist thing yeah okay cool watch and it also logs the amount of time and miles that When Elon was on the podcast, he was talking to me about his Neuralink thing that he's going to be coming out with. thing you wouldn't tell me oh my god that's all you would tell so neural link neural link yeah ambitious i think there's a big difference yeah and when zuckerberg's quote that i read recently

1:04:10 Pull out. jesus christ he said that that's crazy exactly that my favorite zuckerberg joke uh we were i Nothing happens to that guy. how is all this stuff propagated like where's this coming from yeah and the people that were asking you need fucking techno guys yeah people men and women who really understand technology should be that they were going to have.

1:07:28 have a website all you have to have is a popular twitter account yeah there's a lot of people out And you don't even know who the fuck these people are. You're alt-right for it. trying they're trying to turn me into this motherfucker i'm like i'm not coming on your fucking tv show so you can use i don't want to you don't You don't need Everyone's opinion

1:09:52 About some things Nuance create a false narrative where it is black or white yeah that's one thing you see a lot today You're a magic carpet to the alt-right. Instead of like this internal examination of their actual feelings and how they really think about things and whether or not they make sense or whether or not it's objective. They're running out of targets i i did what bothered me someone hit me up saying

1:12:38 but second of all does my mere existence not testify to the fact that i'm not i'm not pro you're not pro white Bro, I don't even pay attention to half the shit. interviews with this guy before and he was talking shit about comedians that have not denounced louis ck yeah and i'm like hey man i just like you How about Hastert, the guy who's the Speaker of the House, who went to jail for fucking kids,

1:14:47 Right. it's just what he did was just gross and he stopped doing it like more than 10 years ago right generation but i've said some shit at like seller and vu like very anti-trump shit and people have That your president is a billionaire that doesn't use his money to just hire a personal trainer once in a while? Like,erall mcdonald's diet is not the way you want your fucking president to be living his life

1:17:16 have to do is not laugh or laugh well it's also the people that are going down to see that stuff And all of a sudden I'm at a Jimmy Fallon monologue. I want to hear some real stand-up. Like, this is stupid. Politically like people are are so like that's and they just decide this is my identity, and they cloak themselves in it, Yeah, their quarterback is about to get fucking popped. Yeah. Jesus Christ, man. He's going to get pulled off the field. that yeah i am talking shit about the quarterback you know what i think you know yeah that quarterback

1:20:02 my my dad works at a liquor store and someone came in Thursday morning, like four days, five days after it happened, they didn't like the joke i said and like i didn't the real i didn't tell them is it's so that even what are you doing cleaning the basement out this is not gonna work yeah but so when my mom saw it Yeah, yeah, yeah. people like i i know i know the kind of shit that me and my asian friends and my indian friends would talk when we were in fucking school like

1:23:53 they were all you know mocking these fucking little children i want to i want to say for the Did it? You do something ridiculous. And hopefully those kids are going to grow and mature. It was either like, no, we have an opportunity to assert our sort of rightness, however wrong it is here. Yeah. Because they feel like that evil needs to be combated at every turn

1:26:21 Everyone's like, oh, shit, man, bunker down. to see him like watch fox news i'd like to like sit next to him cheeseburgers just fucking crazy especially with this so you're gonna try to exert it you know like political correctness was washing over people in the 80s yeah they're trying to We're trying to, the actual culture as a whole is trying to eliminate racism and eliminate sexism and eliminate

1:28:20 what utopia are you fucking take a minute take a second to relax and what i get it is that what utopia have you read When is it really hate speech? boy, you create this atmosphere where you can start to choose And then you're like, oh, well, my world is perfect now. Well, yeah, and he goes by the name of Sargon Arcad, I mean, that's a strong name. But what he essentially said was, you guys are being niggers oh my god you act like

1:32:25 and you know when you're using it what's this what's this in what's the context of this like Now, I don't agree with any of these things he said. And you can watch the full interview on this. And it's really because of his anti-liberal bias. so it's one of those weird little battleground situations but do you think like uh what are your thoughts on it i'm like dude you i mean's such a, that choice of words is such a way to just, if I'm a person reading that, I'm like, my eye goes, you said what?

1:36:47 Is like this guy You could be trying to save He could have said, and by the way, like all conversations, including this one, right? Damn, dog. Like I see their point with this particular thing that this guy said. This is what you do. where it's like you've said a trigger word that is clearly a trigger word. Yes. And what you just said is the way he should have said what he wanted to say.

1:40:03 Right. and this would be considered a collaboration. is the first dance which i think they're saying it is uh definitely a warning or maybe but here's decide that they don't like what he's doing Yeah, let the marketplace talk in that sense. I don't think, Yeah. the some one of the things that we're seeing with de-platforming is it's sort and then he wanted the Proud Boys to fight them.

1:44:10 He was a clever provocateur. and then he would basically talk them into a corner. with Anthony Cumia from Opie and Anthony. away from them and they became an organization where you could just join. But the Southern Poverty Law Center did label them as a hate crime, and several other organizations did as well. right if we're being like really charitable one out of a hundred is a fucking idiot. Well, that's 100%. Right. Right? If we're being like really charitable,

1:46:42 And a lot of them are vegan. He's a fucking Jewish man who wears a yarmulke. be like no no no it's not that it's like it got away from him it just it became this it wasn't And so this domino effect but i do not think he's a racist and i don't think he was promoting racism what he was doing was he twitter previously so he already had that scarlet mark you know there was already people were already

1:49:51 How many followers does he have? Permanently banned account. It's too fast. You remember that family where the son died in Iraq? And people were like, Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this Mueller thing, what i really like about They're coming 100 deep, and it's going to be 0 to 100 like that, and that's going to hey man, He could just fire the head of the FBI?

1:52:44 Yeah. Yeah, but he finds out, oh, no. and then the next day he was gone with no real explanation of why. He was just a meme guy, but now he's essentially become this really right-wing sort of... far right far right neo-nazi what yikes he's a neo-naazi? I don't know. What kind of name is Antime? For sure, dude. I appreciate you, brother. I'm at FindingNimesh on Instagram.

1:54:50 That's going to happen.
