- Oh my God.
- Thank you.
- 6
- 00:00:38,038 --> 00:00:39,706
- Thank you for coming out.
- 7
- 00:00:39,707 --> 00:00:41,499
- (audience cheering)
- 8
- 00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:43,376
- It's good to be here.
- 9
- 00:00:43,377 --> 00:00:44,670
- This is what I look like.
- 10
- 00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:49,132
- It's mostly my fault.
- 11
- 00:00:49,133 --> 00:00:51,926
- Well, it's all my fault.
- 12
- 00:00:51,927 --> 00:00:53,887
- I wish I had
- an excuse, you know?
- 13
- 00:00:53,888 --> 00:00:57,307
- Like I had to gain
- all this weight for a movie.
- 14
- 00:00:57,308 --> 00:00:59,559
- There's no movie.
- 15
- 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,019
- If you saw me eat,
- you would think
- 16
- 00:01:01,020 --> 00:01:04,272
- there were multiple movies.
- 17
- 00:01:04,273 --> 00:01:08,193
- Are they doing a
- live action "Shrek?"
- 18
- 00:01:08,194 --> 00:01:11,488
- This guy's gonna be perfect!
- 19
- 00:01:11,489 --> 00:01:13,615
- I'm wearing my shirt untucked.
- 20
- 00:01:13,616 --> 00:01:15,575
- The untucked shirt.
- 21
- 00:01:15,576 --> 00:01:19,788
- The fat man's last hurrah.
- 22
- 00:01:19,789 --> 00:01:23,833
- Next stop muumuu.
- 23
- 00:01:23,834 --> 00:01:25,043
- You might see a guy
- with his shirt untucked
- 24
- 00:01:25,044 --> 00:01:28,838
- and think,
- "Oh, was he in a hurry?
- 25
- 00:01:28,839 --> 00:01:31,216
- Is he going casual?"
- 26
- 00:01:31,217 --> 00:01:32,801
- But you should know
- that someone very close
- 27
- 00:01:32,802 --> 00:01:35,386
- to that man saw him
- with his shirt tucked in,
- 28
- 00:01:35,387 --> 00:01:38,723
- and said, "Don't do that.
- 29
- 00:01:38,724 --> 00:01:41,476
- "That's visually unpleasing.
- 30
- 00:01:41,477 --> 00:01:45,396
- You look better
- not fully dressed."
- 31
- 00:01:45,397 --> 00:01:50,360
- The untucked shirt,
- it's like the male wonder bra.
- 32
- 00:01:50,361 --> 00:01:53,613
- There's a surprise
- underneath and...
- 33
- 00:01:53,614 --> 00:01:56,866
- you're not gonna like it.
- 34
- 00:01:56,867 --> 00:01:59,118
- (audience applauding)
- 35
- 00:01:59,119 --> 00:02:02,789
- This is not an UNTUCKit.
- 36
- 00:02:02,790 --> 00:02:04,290
- UNTUCKit, which is
- a brand of shirt.
- 37
- 00:02:04,291 --> 00:02:06,960
- I do love those
- UNTUCKit commercials.
- 38
- 00:02:06,961 --> 00:02:10,880
- They present it like some
- revolutionary technology.
- 39
- 00:02:10,881 --> 00:02:15,385
- It's a shirt that can
- be worn untucked.
- 40
- 00:02:15,386 --> 00:02:18,471
- Wow!
- 41
- 00:02:18,472 --> 00:02:21,724
- Like a magic shirt?
- 42
- 00:02:21,725 --> 00:02:22,976
- That's right.
- 43
- 00:02:22,977 --> 00:02:25,520
- Can other shirts do that?
- 44
- 00:02:25,521 --> 00:02:27,105
- No, this is a special shirt.
- 45
- 00:02:27,106 --> 00:02:30,859
- It goes with our
- unzipped pants.
- 46
- 00:02:30,860 --> 00:02:33,194
- And our unbuckled
- belt, and combined
- 47
- 00:02:33,195 --> 00:02:37,448
- with your uncombed hair
- you can look unemployed.
- 48
- 00:02:37,449 --> 00:02:40,577
- And be unwelcome
- in restaurants.
- 49
- 00:02:40,578 --> 00:02:44,039
- That's unbelievable.
- 50
- 00:02:46,375 --> 00:02:50,420
- This shirt is actually a 2XL.
- 51
- 00:02:50,421 --> 00:02:54,257
- That's right, I did it.
- 52
- 00:02:54,258 --> 00:02:57,760
- Mission accomplished.
- 53
- 00:02:57,761 --> 00:02:59,388
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 54
- 00:03:03,309 --> 00:03:07,020
- There should be a moving up
- ceremony for when you hit 2XL.
- 55
- 00:03:07,021 --> 00:03:09,689
- It is with great pride
- and slight disgust,
- 56
- 00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:11,983
- that we present
- this garment roughly
- 57
- 00:03:11,984 --> 00:03:14,944
- the size of a circus tent,
- 58
- 00:03:14,945 --> 00:03:19,490
- to this slob who
- actually struggles to
- put on his own socks.
- 59
- 00:03:19,491 --> 00:03:23,328
- He may now burp for
- no reason at all.
- 60
- 00:03:23,329 --> 00:03:25,747
- I am new to the 2XL community.
- 61
- 00:03:25,748 --> 00:03:29,208
- They've been very welcoming.
- 62
- 00:03:29,209 --> 00:03:30,376
- I did some research.
- 63
- 00:03:30,377 --> 00:03:32,629
- You know what
- the size after 2XL is?
- 64
- 00:03:32,630 --> 00:03:35,715
- Kill yourself.
- 65
- 00:03:35,716 --> 00:03:38,092
- No, it's 3X!
- 66
- 00:03:38,093 --> 00:03:39,761
- Triple X!
- 67
- 00:03:39,762 --> 00:03:43,598
- That's pornographic.
- 68
- 00:03:43,599 --> 00:03:47,602
- It's so fat it's obscene.
- 69
- 00:03:47,603 --> 00:03:51,981
- Triple X does sound like
- some fat on fat action.
- 70
- 00:03:51,982 --> 00:03:55,652
- Oh, yeah.
- 71
- 00:03:55,653 --> 00:03:57,528
- Oh, yeah.
- And I'm headin' there,
- 72
- 00:03:57,529 --> 00:04:00,740
- hopefully by
- the end of the show.
- 73
- 00:04:00,741 --> 00:04:02,033
- I don't know what happened.
- 74
- 00:04:02,034 --> 00:04:07,580
- All I did was eat
- abusively for 40 years.
- 75
- 00:04:07,581 --> 00:04:10,750
- And suddenly I'm fat?
- 76
- 00:04:10,751 --> 00:04:13,169
- That doesn't seem fair.
- 77
- 00:04:13,170 --> 00:04:14,629
- I am now at the size,
- 78
- 00:04:14,630 --> 00:04:16,506
- when I go in clothing
- stores sales people
- 79
- 00:04:16,507 --> 00:04:19,217
- look at me like,
- "We got nothing for you.
- 80
- 00:04:19,218 --> 00:04:21,220
- And you can't
- use our bathroom."
- 81
- 00:04:24,014 --> 00:04:26,349
- When I go out to eat,
- if I order a salad,
- 82
- 00:04:26,350 --> 00:04:29,894
- the waiter's
- always like, "Aw.
- 83
- 00:04:29,895 --> 00:04:33,106
- Look at you try."
- 84
- 00:04:33,107 --> 00:04:35,191
- I'm always afraid he's gonna
- gather the whole staff,
- 85
- 00:04:35,192 --> 00:04:39,654
- "The fat pig is trying,
- the fat pig is trying, I..."
- 86
- 00:04:39,655 --> 00:04:41,572
- (audience laughs)
- 87
- 00:04:41,573 --> 00:04:43,449
- I've always talked
- about my weight
- 88
- 00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:46,452
- in my stand up but in
- the past after shows
- 89
- 00:04:46,453 --> 00:04:48,329
- if I ran into audience
- members they'd be
- 90
- 00:04:48,330 --> 00:04:51,332
- like, "Jim, you're not that
- fat, you're not that fat."
- 91
- 00:04:51,333 --> 00:04:53,793
- But now after shows people
- are like, "Good show."
- 92
- 00:04:53,794 --> 00:04:56,796
- (audience laughs)
- 93
- 00:04:56,797 --> 00:05:00,383
- "You nailed it."
- 94
- 00:05:00,384 --> 00:05:03,136
- I don't care.
- I like to eat!
- 95
- 00:05:03,137 --> 00:05:05,555
- I like to eat.
- You know, when you like to eat,
- 96
- 00:05:05,556 --> 00:05:08,349
- what's weird is people
- assume you enjoy cooking.
- 97
- 00:05:08,350 --> 00:05:09,934
- (audience laughs)
- 98
- 00:05:09,935 --> 00:05:13,271
- Well, you must know your
- way around the kitchen.
- 99
- 00:05:13,272 --> 00:05:16,149
- I know where the food is.
- 100
- 00:05:16,150 --> 00:05:18,359
- Well, you must love to cook.
- 101
- 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:19,819
- Look, I like to sleep.
- 102
- 00:05:19,820 --> 00:05:21,779
- It doesn't mean
- I wanna build a bed.
- 103
- 00:05:21,780 --> 00:05:23,906
- (audience laughs)
- 104
- 00:05:23,907 --> 00:05:27,076
- The truth is, I don't
- like to do anything.
- 105
- 00:05:27,077 --> 00:05:28,953
- Like when I order
- delivery, I'm kind
- 106
- 00:05:28,954 --> 00:05:32,623
- of annoyed they don't
- know what I want already.
- 107
- 00:05:32,624 --> 00:05:34,752
- What, do I have
- to do everything?
- 108
- 00:05:38,797 --> 00:05:41,632
- I did lose some weight
- last summer, thank you.
- 109
- 00:05:41,633 --> 00:05:43,051
- - Thank you.
- - (audience applauding)
- 110
- 00:05:43,052 --> 00:05:45,219
- I did. I did.
- 111
- 00:05:45,220 --> 00:05:48,306
- Well, I had
- my appendix removed.
- 112
- 00:05:48,307 --> 00:05:51,142
- But it still counts.
- 113
- 00:05:51,143 --> 00:05:53,227
- I didn't know what
- the appendix was,
- 114
- 00:05:53,228 --> 00:05:56,272
- and since I'm an idiot I
- just pretended like I did.
- 115
- 00:05:56,273 --> 00:05:59,192
- The doctor was like, "We have
- to remove your appendix,"
- 116
- 00:05:59,193 --> 00:06:03,404
- and I was, like,
- "Both of them?"
- 117
- 00:06:03,405 --> 00:06:04,655
- Luckily he thought
- I was kidding.
- 118
- 00:06:04,656 --> 00:06:06,908
- He was, like...
- (imitates laughing)
- 119
- 00:06:06,909 --> 00:06:07,951
- Ah!
- 120
- 00:06:10,245 --> 00:06:12,622
- I'm so grateful
- he didn't call me out.
- 121
- 00:06:12,623 --> 00:06:14,082
- I don't know what
- I would've said, you know?
- 122
- 00:06:14,083 --> 00:06:15,875
- Like, "There's
- only one appendix."
- 123
- 00:06:15,876 --> 00:06:21,547
- "Oh, ha ha, appendix.
- I-- I thought you said lungs.
- 124
- 00:06:21,548 --> 00:06:27,136
- To me they sound
- similar 'cause I'm dumb."
- 125
- 00:06:27,137 --> 00:06:29,680
- I didn't know what
- the appendix was,
- 126
- 00:06:29,681 --> 00:06:31,140
- but I don't feel that bad.
- 127
- 00:06:31,141 --> 00:06:33,267
- The doctor told me
- science isn't even sure
- 128
- 00:06:33,268 --> 00:06:36,020
- what the appendix
- does exactly.
- 129
- 00:06:36,021 --> 00:06:39,482
- Science isn't even sure
- why the appendix exists.
- 130
- 00:06:39,483 --> 00:06:41,442
- And I heard that and
- I was, like, oh my gosh,
- 131
- 00:06:41,443 --> 00:06:45,905
- the appendix is
- like a Kardashian.
- 132
- 00:06:45,906 --> 00:06:47,240
- It is.
- 133
- 00:06:47,241 --> 00:06:51,744
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 134
- 00:06:51,745 --> 00:06:55,581
- Think about it.
- It's a mystery to everyone.
- 135
- 00:06:55,582 --> 00:06:59,544
- But for some of us,
- causes excruciating pain.
- 136
- 00:06:59,545 --> 00:07:02,547
- It needs to be
- removed with a knife.
- 137
- 00:07:02,548 --> 00:07:05,967
- Obviously, I'm not
- promoting violence,
- 138
- 00:07:05,968 --> 00:07:08,261
- against any of
- the Kardashians.
- 139
- 00:07:08,262 --> 00:07:12,265
- Just the mother.
- 140
- 00:07:12,266 --> 00:07:14,267
- There's always one person
- that gets too into that joke.
- 141
- 00:07:14,268 --> 00:07:16,477
- "Yes, kill the mother.
- 142
- 00:07:16,478 --> 00:07:19,730
- Kill her and smear
- her blood on my face."
- 143
- 00:07:19,731 --> 00:07:21,607
- (audience laughs)
- 144
- 00:07:21,608 --> 00:07:23,067
- I think it's strange
- 145
- 00:07:23,068 --> 00:07:25,528
- science doesn't know
- what the appendix does.
- 146
- 00:07:25,529 --> 00:07:27,405
- That means nobody knows.
- 147
- 00:07:27,406 --> 00:07:29,407
- You never hear,
- "Science doesn't know,
- 148
- 00:07:29,408 --> 00:07:32,869
- "but Earl has a theory.
- 149
- 00:07:32,870 --> 00:07:37,498
- Earl, when you were
- cleaning the toilet,
- you mumbled something."
- 150
- 00:07:37,499 --> 00:07:39,500
- How is that
- an acceptable answer
- 151
- 00:07:39,501 --> 00:07:43,254
- from the entire
- scientific community?
- 152
- 00:07:43,255 --> 00:07:47,008
- "Yeah, we don't know.
- 153
- 00:07:47,009 --> 00:07:51,387
- Well, back to
- cloning everything."
- 154
- 00:07:51,388 --> 00:07:54,515
- And they just
- remove the appendix.
- 155
- 00:07:54,516 --> 00:07:56,392
- That's the solution.
- Take it out!
- 156
- 00:07:56,393 --> 00:07:58,561
- We don't know
- what it does.
- 157
- 00:07:58,562 --> 00:08:00,062
- And it's fine.
- 158
- 00:08:00,063 --> 00:08:01,772
- But you know the first time
- they did it,
- 159
- 00:08:01,773 --> 00:08:05,027
- "We removed your appendix.
- Let's see what happens."
- 160
- 00:08:09,364 --> 00:08:11,657
- I had my appendix
- removed in Alaska.
- 161
- 00:08:11,658 --> 00:08:14,744
- That's not why I went there.
- 162
- 00:08:14,745 --> 00:08:16,454
- I was on vacation
- with my family,
- 163
- 00:08:16,455 --> 00:08:18,998
- and I had this sharp
- pain in my abdomen,
- 164
- 00:08:18,999 --> 00:08:21,459
- and since I'm a genius,
- my first thought was,
- 165
- 00:08:21,460 --> 00:08:26,047
- "Oh, I pulled a
- muscle in my stomach."
- 166
- 00:08:26,048 --> 00:08:29,842
- That's what
- I sincerely thought.
- 167
- 00:08:29,843 --> 00:08:33,804
- See all these muscles?
- 168
- 00:08:33,805 --> 00:08:37,266
- I thought I pulled one...
- 169
- 00:08:37,267 --> 00:08:40,436
- doin' nothin'.
- 170
- 00:08:40,437 --> 00:08:42,230
- And the pain
- was overwhelming.
- 171
- 00:08:42,231 --> 00:08:43,773
- I couldn't move.
- 172
- 00:08:43,774 --> 00:08:45,399
- My wife was like,
- "I'm gonna go for help,
- 173
- 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:46,567
- I'm gonna go for help."
- 174
- 00:08:46,568 --> 00:08:48,986
- But we're in a
- remote area of Alaska
- 175
- 00:08:48,987 --> 00:08:51,572
- so she just ran
- to nearby cabins.
- 176
- 00:08:51,573 --> 00:08:53,741
- Eventually she came back
- all out of breath.
- 177
- 00:08:53,742 --> 00:08:55,201
- She's like, "I found a guy,
- I found a guy."
- 178
- 00:08:55,202 --> 00:08:56,869
- I was, like, "Oh good,
- is he a doctor?"
- 179
- 00:08:56,870 --> 00:08:57,870
- She goes, "No."
- 180
- 00:08:57,871 --> 00:08:58,955
- I go, "Is he a nurse?"
- 181
- 00:08:58,956 --> 00:09:02,041
- She goes, "He's a lawyer."
- 182
- 00:09:02,042 --> 00:09:05,920
- I guess he can do my will.
- 183
- 00:09:05,921 --> 00:09:09,257
- So then this
- lawyer-doctor came over,
- 184
- 00:09:09,258 --> 00:09:10,925
- and started
- asking me questions,
- 185
- 00:09:10,926 --> 00:09:12,969
- and when you're in pain
- all questions are annoying.
- 186
- 00:09:12,970 --> 00:09:14,470
- He's like,
- "Do you have a fever?"
- 187
- 00:09:14,471 --> 00:09:17,640
- And I was like,
- "Are you even a lawyer?"
- 188
- 00:09:17,641 --> 00:09:18,975
- He's like,
- "Is it a dull pain?"
- 189
- 00:09:18,976 --> 00:09:22,770
- "There's nothing
- boring about this."
- 190
- 00:09:22,771 --> 00:09:26,399
- Eventually I had to be
- airlifted on advice of counsel.
- 191
- 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,151
- (audience laughs)
- 192
- 00:09:29,152 --> 00:09:32,363
- I was airlifted,
- which was embarrassing,
- 193
- 00:09:32,364 --> 00:09:34,740
- 'cause unlike a heroic
- airlift if someone
- 194
- 00:09:34,741 --> 00:09:38,119
- from a natural disaster
- or a wounded solider,
- 195
- 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:40,329
- I was just a fat guy
- with a tummy ache.
- 196
- 00:09:40,330 --> 00:09:43,457
- (audience laughs)
- 197
- 00:09:43,458 --> 00:09:48,379
- The helicopter pilot was like,
- "Wait, your stomach hurts?"
- 198
- 00:09:48,380 --> 00:09:52,466
- "Yeah, it's real sore."
- 199
- 00:09:52,467 --> 00:09:55,761
- "Do you know how much it
- costs to rent a helicopter?"
- 200
- 00:09:55,762 --> 00:09:58,056
- "But my tummy hurts."
- 201
- 00:09:59,683 --> 00:10:01,225
- I knew it was expensive.
- 202
- 00:10:01,226 --> 00:10:03,352
- I sat on that helicopter
- the entire ride
- 203
- 00:10:03,353 --> 00:10:05,771
- just holding my
- stomach and praying,
- 204
- 00:10:05,772 --> 00:10:08,482
- praying, "Please
- don't let this be gas."
- 205
- 00:10:08,483 --> 00:10:10,735
- (audience laughs)
- 206
- 00:10:10,736 --> 00:10:14,572
- "Sweet Jesus,
- don't let this be gas.
- 207
- 00:10:14,573 --> 00:10:17,742
- 'Cause if it's gas
- I don't think I can
- return to my family."
- 208
- 00:10:17,743 --> 00:10:19,535
- (audience laughs)
- 209
- 00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:20,745
- Hey kids, daddy's back.
- 210
- 00:10:20,746 --> 00:10:23,331
- Had some gas.
- 211
- 00:10:23,332 --> 00:10:24,832
- Took a helicopter ride.
- 212
- 00:10:24,833 --> 00:10:27,626
- None of you wanted to
- go to college did ya?
- 213
- 00:10:27,627 --> 00:10:29,128
- It's a little out of
- our price range now.
- 214
- 00:10:29,129 --> 00:10:30,755
- We don't know what
- caused the gas.
- 215
- 00:10:30,756 --> 00:10:34,258
- It might've been daddy's
- three breakfast burritos.
- 216
- 00:10:34,259 --> 00:10:37,803
- Pretty much
- a medical mystery.
- 217
- 00:10:37,804 --> 00:10:39,847
- I was airlifted to
- the closest hospital.
- 218
- 00:10:39,848 --> 00:10:41,098
- They removed my appendix.
- 219
- 00:10:41,099 --> 00:10:42,266
- They did a good job.
- 220
- 00:10:42,267 --> 00:10:43,768
- I mean, I'm female now.
- 221
- 00:10:43,769 --> 00:10:47,104
- (audience laughs)
- 222
- 00:10:47,105 --> 00:10:49,357
- The surgeon who
- removed my appendix,
- 223
- 00:10:49,358 --> 00:10:52,902
- his name was Dr. Muffuletta.
- 224
- 00:10:52,903 --> 00:10:57,782
- Which is also the name of a
- delicious New Orleans sandwich.
- 225
- 00:10:57,783 --> 00:11:00,951
- And I do look like a
- guy who would know that.
- 226
- 00:11:00,952 --> 00:11:02,703
- So when he introduced
- himself I was like,
- 227
- 00:11:02,704 --> 00:11:07,249
- am I being visited by
- the ghost of sandwich past?
- 228
- 00:11:07,250 --> 00:11:09,585
- Is Nurse Po'Boy
- about to come in?
- 229
- 00:11:09,586 --> 00:11:12,630
- (audience laughs)
- 230
- 00:11:12,631 --> 00:11:15,466
- I woke up after the surgery
- covered in Mardi Gras beads.
- 231
- 00:11:15,467 --> 00:11:18,052
- (audience laughs)
- 232
- 00:11:18,053 --> 00:11:20,096
- No, I woke up and there
- was a nurse standing there
- 233
- 00:11:20,097 --> 00:11:22,390
- and she was like,
- "The surgery was a success.
- 234
- 00:11:22,391 --> 00:11:24,517
- Just let me know if
- it hurts when you pee,"
- 235
- 00:11:24,518 --> 00:11:26,936
- and I was like wait,
- where's the appendix?
- 236
- 00:11:26,937 --> 00:11:29,063
- (audience laughs)
- 237
- 00:11:29,064 --> 00:11:32,108
- How exactly did you remove it?
- 238
- 00:11:32,109 --> 00:11:35,736
- This doesn't sound
- like a success at all.
- 239
- 00:11:35,737 --> 00:11:38,322
- Then she explained,
- right before the surgery,
- 240
- 00:11:38,323 --> 00:11:40,116
- they inserted a catheter.
- 241
- 00:11:40,117 --> 00:11:43,035
- I didn't know what that
- was so I was like, "Oh, okay."
- 242
- 00:11:43,036 --> 00:11:44,662
- And then I started
- piecing it together.
- 243
- 00:11:44,663 --> 00:11:46,205
- It hurts when I pee,
- catheter.
- 244
- 00:11:46,206 --> 00:11:49,166
- I'm suing this hospital!
- 245
- 00:11:49,167 --> 00:11:53,129
- You'll be hearing
- from my lawyer-doctor.
- 246
- 00:11:53,130 --> 00:11:54,547
- What monsters.
- 247
- 00:11:54,548 --> 00:11:57,675
- If given a choice of
- peeing all over myself,
- 248
- 00:11:57,676 --> 00:12:01,220
- or having a tube
- inserted in my penis...
- 249
- 00:12:01,221 --> 00:12:05,516
- I'll take the pee shower.
- 250
- 00:12:05,517 --> 00:12:08,477
- I guess I'm old
- fashioned, you know?
- 251
- 00:12:08,478 --> 00:12:12,606
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 252
- 00:12:12,607 --> 00:12:15,192
- Checking out of the hospital,
- the desk clerk was so excited.
- 253
- 00:12:15,193 --> 00:12:16,861
- He was like, "You had
- your appendix removed.
- 254
- 00:12:16,862 --> 00:12:19,029
- I had my gallbladder
- taken out."
- 255
- 00:12:19,030 --> 00:12:22,199
- I was like, "We should
- vacation together.
- 256
- 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:23,993
- "What are the odds
- two fat Americans
- 257
- 00:12:23,994 --> 00:12:27,580
- had surgery on their
- digestive system?"
- 258
- 00:12:27,581 --> 00:12:31,000
- I was released from the hospital
- the day after the surgery.
- 259
- 00:12:31,001 --> 00:12:32,626
- They gave me pain killers.
- 260
- 00:12:32,627 --> 00:12:35,212
- They also instructed
- me to do some walking,
- 261
- 00:12:35,213 --> 00:12:37,089
- which I assume was
- part of the recovery,
- 262
- 00:12:37,090 --> 00:12:41,469
- but it kind of felt like
- a commentary on my weight.
- 263
- 00:12:41,470 --> 00:12:44,972
- "Have you ever
- done any walking?
- 264
- 00:12:44,973 --> 00:12:46,265
- "Have you ever leaned
- forward and let
- 265
- 00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:50,352
- "your legs propel
- your fat ass?
- 266
- 00:12:50,353 --> 00:12:54,690
- Let's take a break from
- your motorized scooter."
- 267
- 00:12:54,691 --> 00:12:57,193
- And I was in Alaska, so
- I said this was perfect.
- 268
- 00:12:57,194 --> 00:12:59,695
- So I returned to my family,
- and we immediately
- 269
- 00:12:59,696 --> 00:13:01,697
- went on a hike
- and it was great.
- 270
- 00:13:01,698 --> 00:13:03,699
- Alaska's beautiful.
- My kids were havin' fun.
- 271
- 00:13:03,700 --> 00:13:07,495
- I was pretending like
- I enjoyed being outside.
- 272
- 00:13:07,496 --> 00:13:11,040
- And then suddenly we saw
- a bear, like, 500 yards away,
- 273
- 00:13:11,041 --> 00:13:16,420
- this huge brown bear, like,
- way bigger then a gummy bear.
- 274
- 00:13:16,421 --> 00:13:18,589
- And I was so excited
- 'cause I watch nature shows,
- 275
- 00:13:18,590 --> 00:13:20,466
- but I had never seen
- a bear in person
- 276
- 00:13:20,467 --> 00:13:22,593
- so it felt like
- a celebrity sighting.
- 277
- 00:13:22,594 --> 00:13:26,222
- I was like, "Oh my God, I've
- watched you on Animal Planet.
- 278
- 00:13:26,223 --> 00:13:27,723
- "You're so much taller
- in person.
- 279
- 00:13:27,724 --> 00:13:29,975
- Can we do a selfie?"
- 280
- 00:13:29,976 --> 00:13:31,936
- But unlike
- a celebrity sighting,
- 281
- 00:13:31,937 --> 00:13:34,855
- there was the risk of death.
- 282
- 00:13:34,856 --> 00:13:36,482
- Like, you never hear,
- we're in restaurant,
- 283
- 00:13:36,483 --> 00:13:38,025
- Tom Hanks walked in
- and then
- 284
- 00:13:38,026 --> 00:13:41,445
- he came over and
- murdered my family.
- 285
- 00:13:41,446 --> 00:13:44,198
- That never happens.
- 286
- 00:13:44,199 --> 00:13:46,200
- But the bear was far away,
- so I took out
- 287
- 00:13:46,201 --> 00:13:48,244
- my phone and I started
- taking pictures,
- 288
- 00:13:48,245 --> 00:13:50,120
- and then suddenly
- the bear stood up,
- 289
- 00:13:50,121 --> 00:13:53,541
- roared and looked
- right at me.
- 290
- 00:13:53,542 --> 00:13:54,959
- Started creeping towards me,
- 291
- 00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:56,293
- tilting his head
- back and forth
- 292
- 00:13:56,294 --> 00:13:59,964
- almost like
- he recognized me.
- 293
- 00:13:59,965 --> 00:14:02,424
- "That guy looks like
- Phillip Seymour Hoffman."
- 294
- 00:14:02,425 --> 00:14:06,804
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 295
- 00:14:06,805 --> 00:14:09,598
- I was terrified.
- 296
- 00:14:09,599 --> 00:14:11,517
- Luckily, we were
- with a tour guide,
- 297
- 00:14:11,518 --> 00:14:12,893
- and I looked at him
- and he goes, "Don't worry,
- 298
- 00:14:12,894 --> 00:14:14,436
- I have bear spray,"
- and I was like,
- 299
- 00:14:14,437 --> 00:14:16,855
- "Do you have
- anything stronger?
- 300
- 00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:19,233
- "Like a bear gun?
- 301
- 00:14:19,234 --> 00:14:20,776
- "'Cause I don't think
- this bear's
- 302
- 00:14:20,777 --> 00:14:23,821
- approaching to
- get his hair done."
- 303
- 00:14:23,822 --> 00:14:26,031
- And the bear kept coming,
- kept coming,
- 304
- 00:14:26,032 --> 00:14:27,783
- and then suddenly
- the tour guide goes,
- 305
- 00:14:27,784 --> 00:14:30,953
- "Okay, I want everyone to
- start walking backwards slowly.
- 306
- 00:14:30,954 --> 00:14:33,122
- Walk backwards slowly."
- 307
- 00:14:33,123 --> 00:14:37,293
- I guess, so the
- bear could catch up.
- 308
- 00:14:37,294 --> 00:14:39,628
- So we started walking
- backwards slowly.
- 309
- 00:14:39,629 --> 00:14:42,965
- By then the bear
- was in a full sprint.
- 310
- 00:14:42,966 --> 00:14:48,012
- I had surgery 12 hours ago,
- so I smelled delicious.
- 311
- 00:14:48,013 --> 00:14:49,847
- I was also sunburned,
- so I probably
- 312
- 00:14:49,848 --> 00:14:53,851
- looked like
- a giant land salmon.
- 313
- 00:14:53,852 --> 00:14:55,436
- The bear couldn't
- believe his luck,
- 314
- 00:14:55,437 --> 00:14:58,522
- like, "I'm not gonna have
- to eat for a month."
- 315
- 00:14:58,523 --> 00:14:59,732
- I was like,
- "I'm gonna die!
- 316
- 00:14:59,733 --> 00:15:01,358
- I'm gonna be
- eaten by a bear!"
- 317
- 00:15:01,359 --> 00:15:06,196
- Which is ironic given how
- many animals I've eaten.
- 318
- 00:15:06,197 --> 00:15:08,032
- So I started humming
- "Circle of Life,"
- 319
- 00:15:08,033 --> 00:15:11,076
- and continued walking
- backwards slowly.
- 320
- 00:15:11,077 --> 00:15:12,786
- I should point out
- it's not like
- 321
- 00:15:12,787 --> 00:15:15,581
- we were walking backwards
- slowly to a car or a cabin.
- 322
- 00:15:15,582 --> 00:15:19,585
- We were walking backwards
- slowly to nothing.
- 323
- 00:15:19,586 --> 00:15:21,587
- It probably looked like
- we were teasing the bear
- 324
- 00:15:21,588 --> 00:15:25,215
- like, "Come
- and get it, Mr. Bear.
- 325
- 00:15:25,216 --> 00:15:28,886
- "Are you looking to
- get a little grisly?
- 326
- 00:15:28,887 --> 00:15:32,139
- Craving a little 2XL
- are you?"
- 327
- 00:15:32,140 --> 00:15:34,683
- And before you knew it
- the bear was upon us,
- 328
- 00:15:34,684 --> 00:15:37,770
- and he killed us
- and we died.
- 329
- 00:15:37,771 --> 00:15:39,146
- Such a bloody mess.
- 330
- 00:15:39,147 --> 00:15:41,732
- No, what really happened,
- 331
- 00:15:41,733 --> 00:15:43,734
- is at one point the tour
- guide pulled out this thing,
- 332
- 00:15:43,735 --> 00:15:45,569
- it looked like a pen.
- 333
- 00:15:45,570 --> 00:15:48,906
- I was like, "Great, he's gonna
- ask for the bears autograph."
- 334
- 00:15:48,907 --> 00:15:50,741
- And I learned later on
- it was a bear flare,
- 335
- 00:15:50,742 --> 00:15:52,951
- and he squeezed it,
- and this tiny fire ball
- 336
- 00:15:52,952 --> 00:15:55,204
- went out towards the bear
- and I was like, "Oh good,
- 337
- 00:15:55,205 --> 00:15:58,791
- something to anger the bear."
- 338
- 00:15:58,792 --> 00:16:00,584
- The fireball bounced
- off the bear.
- 339
- 00:16:00,585 --> 00:16:03,587
- The bear stopped and then
- just ran the other way
- 340
- 00:16:03,588 --> 00:16:06,757
- like it forgot
- something at home.
- 341
- 00:16:06,758 --> 00:16:09,134
- And we all looked at each
- other like, "Oh my gosh,
- 342
- 00:16:09,135 --> 00:16:11,178
- that just happened,
- that just happened."
- 343
- 00:16:11,179 --> 00:16:12,721
- And that's a true story.
- 344
- 00:16:12,722 --> 00:16:15,974
- Well, most of that's true.
- 345
- 00:16:15,975 --> 00:16:18,769
- Well, it's all true
- except there was no bear.
- 346
- 00:16:18,770 --> 00:16:21,940
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 347
- 00:16:24,734 --> 00:16:28,570
- And--
- 348
- 00:16:28,571 --> 00:16:31,532
- No, there was a bear.
- 349
- 00:16:31,533 --> 00:16:35,828
- I do sometimes lie up here.
- 350
- 00:16:35,829 --> 00:16:38,205
- I'm not proud of it.
- 351
- 00:16:38,206 --> 00:16:39,957
- But sometimes we
- all have to lie.
- 352
- 00:16:39,958 --> 00:16:43,127
- Like, even when I tell
- my children not to lie,
- 353
- 00:16:43,128 --> 00:16:46,004
- I'm kind of lying to them.
- 354
- 00:16:46,005 --> 00:16:48,465
- Some people are like, "You
- should never lie to a child,"
- 355
- 00:16:48,466 --> 00:16:51,760
- and those people
- don't have kids.
- 356
- 00:16:51,761 --> 00:16:54,221
- 'Cause when you have kids,
- you lie to them all the time.
- 357
- 00:16:54,222 --> 00:16:55,639
- You're, like, "You wouldn't
- like this ice cream,
- 358
- 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,935
- "it's very spicy.
- 359
- 00:16:59,936 --> 00:17:03,272
- "I'd share but
- Santa said I can't.
- 360
- 00:17:03,273 --> 00:17:05,607
- Now why don't you go to sleep
- so I can wrestle your mom?"
- 361
- 00:17:05,608 --> 00:17:10,946
- (audience laughs)
- 362
- 00:17:10,947 --> 00:17:12,865
- I'm not encouraging lying.
- 363
- 00:17:12,866 --> 00:17:16,034
- I'm just saying there are
- times when you need to, right?
- 364
- 00:17:16,035 --> 00:17:17,953
- Like if you're late
- to meet someone,
- 365
- 00:17:17,954 --> 00:17:20,038
- and you can see that
- they're already angry,
- 366
- 00:17:20,039 --> 00:17:23,917
- and you don't have an excuse,
- you have to lie.
- 367
- 00:17:23,918 --> 00:17:25,544
- 'Cause if you told
- that person the truth,
- 368
- 00:17:25,545 --> 00:17:28,130
- they would never
- speak to you again.
- 369
- 00:17:28,131 --> 00:17:29,590
- You can't be like,
- "Hey, I gotta come clean.
- 370
- 00:17:29,591 --> 00:17:33,218
- I just couldn't
- motivate to get goin'."
- 371
- 00:17:33,219 --> 00:17:34,970
- "I mean,
- eventually I could.
- 372
- 00:17:34,971 --> 00:17:36,930
- What I'm tryin' to say is
- I don't value your time."
- 373
- 00:17:36,931 --> 00:17:40,559
- (audience laughs)
- 374
- 00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:42,311
- I've identified
- there are two times
- 375
- 00:17:42,312 --> 00:17:44,897
- when it's socially
- acceptable to lie.
- 376
- 00:17:44,898 --> 00:17:47,357
- To spare someone's feelings,
- it's okay to lie.
- 377
- 00:17:47,358 --> 00:17:50,402
- It's also okay to lie
- to cover up a murder.
- 378
- 00:17:50,403 --> 00:17:52,613
- (audience laughs)
- 379
- 00:17:52,614 --> 00:17:55,949
- Allow me to explain.
- 380
- 00:17:55,950 --> 00:17:58,535
- When we discover
- someone's a murderer,
- 381
- 00:17:58,536 --> 00:18:00,829
- we also learn they've
- done some fibbin'.
- 382
- 00:18:00,830 --> 00:18:04,625
- But we tend to focus
- on the murder part.
- 383
- 00:18:04,626 --> 00:18:06,835
- You never hear, "I'm angry
- he killed that guy,
- 384
- 00:18:06,836 --> 00:18:09,630
- but frankly I'm more upset
- about the lying."
- 385
- 00:18:09,631 --> 00:18:13,091
- It's the dishonesty
- that bothers me.
- 386
- 00:18:13,092 --> 00:18:16,136
- Some trust has been broken.
- 387
- 00:18:16,137 --> 00:18:17,888
- Speaking of lying murderers,
- 388
- 00:18:17,889 --> 00:18:21,225
- I watch a lot of "Dateline."
- I don't wanna brag.
- 389
- 00:18:21,226 --> 00:18:24,311
- Some other winners out there.
- 390
- 00:18:24,312 --> 00:18:27,439
- If you're unfamiliar or
- you have a life, "Dateline" --
- 391
- 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,066
- (audience laughs)
- 392
- 00:18:29,067 --> 00:18:32,110
- is a news magazine
- show like "60 Minutes,"
- 393
- 00:18:32,111 --> 00:18:37,324
- but at one point "Dateline"
- just went all-in on murder.
- 394
- 00:18:37,325 --> 00:18:39,284
- And it's usually
- spousal murder.
- 395
- 00:18:39,285 --> 00:18:41,078
- Like if you watch
- "Dateline," it appears
- 396
- 00:18:41,079 --> 00:18:43,121
- most marriages
- end in murder.
- 397
- 00:18:43,122 --> 00:18:46,750
- (audience laughs)
- 398
- 00:18:46,751 --> 00:18:48,710
- Every episode
- starts the same.
- 399
- 00:18:48,711 --> 00:18:52,923
- They had the perfect
- marriage.
- 400
- 00:18:52,924 --> 00:18:56,176
- But you know someone's
- gettin' killed.
- 401
- 00:18:56,177 --> 00:18:57,594
- A husband, a wife.
- 402
- 00:18:57,595 --> 00:18:59,012
- Sometimes they'll
- get someone else
- 403
- 00:18:59,013 --> 00:19:02,266
- to kill their spouse,
- which seems impersonal.
- 404
- 00:19:02,267 --> 00:19:05,853
- Like, you took a vow,
- do it yourself.
- 405
- 00:19:05,854 --> 00:19:07,646
- (audience laughs)
- 406
- 00:19:07,647 --> 00:19:09,565
- Anyway, I was watchin'
- this one episode
- 407
- 00:19:09,566 --> 00:19:11,441
- of "Dateline" about this
- guy who murdered his wife.
- 408
- 00:19:11,442 --> 00:19:12,860
- It was gruesome.
- 409
- 00:19:12,861 --> 00:19:17,197
- I was watchin' with my
- wife on our anniversary.
- 410
- 00:19:17,198 --> 00:19:18,824
- My wife didn't care.
- 411
- 00:19:18,825 --> 00:19:22,160
- I mean, she wasn't thrilled
- I was taking notes.
- 412
- 00:19:22,161 --> 00:19:23,203
- "What are you writing down?"
- 413
- 00:19:23,204 --> 00:19:26,039
- "This guy's just sloppy.
- 414
- 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,167
- It's like he's
- tryin' to get caught."
- 415
- 00:19:29,168 --> 00:19:32,379
- If anything, this guy's
- plan was full proof.
- 416
- 00:19:32,380 --> 00:19:34,172
- What he did
- on his anniversary
- 417
- 00:19:34,173 --> 00:19:35,966
- is he threw a party
- for him and his wife,
- 418
- 00:19:35,967 --> 00:19:37,593
- and they invited
- all their friends
- 419
- 00:19:37,594 --> 00:19:39,803
- so that they could see
- how happy they were,
- 420
- 00:19:39,804 --> 00:19:42,306
- and then the next morning
- he took his wife fishing.
- 421
- 00:19:42,307 --> 00:19:44,141
- He rented a boat,
- he brought a cooler,
- 422
- 00:19:44,142 --> 00:19:47,603
- some tackle, three
- concrete blocks and a tarp.
- 423
- 00:19:47,604 --> 00:19:49,521
- (audience laughs)
- 424
- 00:19:49,522 --> 00:19:52,566
- You know, for fishing.
- 425
- 00:19:52,567 --> 00:19:54,651
- And he woulda gotten
- away with the whole thing,
- 426
- 00:19:54,652 --> 00:19:58,739
- but three months after his
- wife disappeared at sea,
- 427
- 00:19:58,740 --> 00:20:01,992
- he got engaged
- to a stripper.
- 428
- 00:20:01,993 --> 00:20:04,578
- Which is kinda suspicious.
- 429
- 00:20:04,579 --> 00:20:06,455
- And to celebrate
- their engagement,
- 430
- 00:20:06,456 --> 00:20:09,166
- they dropped acid,
- as tradition would have.
- 431
- 00:20:09,167 --> 00:20:11,710
- (audience laughs)
- 432
- 00:20:11,711 --> 00:20:13,795
- And while tripping
- on acid, he admitted
- 433
- 00:20:13,796 --> 00:20:16,590
- the whole thing
- to his fiance.
- 434
- 00:20:16,591 --> 00:20:20,761
- And she turned him in
- 'cause she didn't
- appreciate the dishonesty.
- 435
- 00:20:20,762 --> 00:20:23,430
- (audience laughs)
- 436
- 00:20:23,431 --> 00:20:26,225
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 437
- 00:20:29,854 --> 00:20:32,814
- And as the episode ended
- all I could think is,
- 438
- 00:20:32,815 --> 00:20:35,817
- "I'm a terrific husband."
- 439
- 00:20:35,818 --> 00:20:39,655
- I've never even thought
- of murdering my wife.
- 440
- 00:20:39,656 --> 00:20:44,076
- Well, I've never made
- plans to murder my wife.
- 441
- 00:20:44,077 --> 00:20:47,287
- Well, I don't own
- concrete blocks.
- 442
- 00:20:47,288 --> 00:20:49,414
- (audience laughs)
- 443
- 00:20:49,415 --> 00:20:51,333
- I can see some of
- you are like,
- 444
- 00:20:51,334 --> 00:20:54,336
- "Jim, I don't
- like the murder jokes.
- I don't like them."
- 445
- 00:20:54,337 --> 00:20:55,796
- But wouldn't it
- be great if
- 446
- 00:20:55,797 --> 00:20:59,007
- in a week, you learned
- I was a murderer?
- 447
- 00:20:59,008 --> 00:21:00,384
- 'Cause then you could brag.
- 448
- 00:21:00,385 --> 00:21:01,760
- You could be like,
- "Oh my gosh,
- 449
- 00:21:01,761 --> 00:21:04,304
- "we were at the taping
- for his special.
- 450
- 00:21:04,305 --> 00:21:07,724
- And he had all these
- jokes on murder."
- 451
- 00:21:07,725 --> 00:21:09,017
- "Were they good?"
- 452
- 00:21:09,018 --> 00:21:11,603
- "Not really, no.
- 453
- 00:21:11,604 --> 00:21:15,857
- He was better at
- murder than comedy."
- 454
- 00:21:15,858 --> 00:21:17,275
- If you know me,
- I would do anything
- 455
- 00:21:17,276 --> 00:21:19,820
- for my wife, and that's
- part of my alibi.
- 456
- 00:21:19,821 --> 00:21:22,322
- No, I--
- 457
- 00:21:22,323 --> 00:21:26,034
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 458
- 00:21:26,035 --> 00:21:27,786
- I would do anything
- for my wife,
- 459
- 00:21:27,787 --> 00:21:29,830
- but I'm not
- a romantic person.
- 460
- 00:21:29,831 --> 00:21:31,206
- I wish I was.
- 461
- 00:21:31,207 --> 00:21:32,916
- There are moments when
- it's glaringly obvious.
- 462
- 00:21:32,917 --> 00:21:35,043
- I get to travel so
- much during stand up.
- 463
- 00:21:35,044 --> 00:21:37,254
- I did a show in Cologne,
- Germany,
- 464
- 00:21:37,255 --> 00:21:39,673
- and before the show, I was
- walking over this bridge
- 465
- 00:21:39,674 --> 00:21:41,216
- that went across
- the Rhine River,
- 466
- 00:21:41,217 --> 00:21:43,218
- and as I walked across,
- I noticed
- 467
- 00:21:43,219 --> 00:21:45,012
- there were
- hundreds of locks,
- 468
- 00:21:45,013 --> 00:21:46,847
- hundreds of locks
- on this bridge,
- 469
- 00:21:46,848 --> 00:21:48,515
- and each of the locks
- had two initials,
- 470
- 00:21:48,516 --> 00:21:50,600
- and it was apparent
- that couples
- 471
- 00:21:50,601 --> 00:21:52,144
- had put the lock there
- 472
- 00:21:52,145 --> 00:21:54,354
- as a symbol
- of their relationship,
- 473
- 00:21:54,355 --> 00:21:56,565
- and I looked at it and
- I thought, "That's perfect."
- 474
- 00:21:56,566 --> 00:22:01,403
- Nothing captures love
- like a rusty padlock,
- 475
- 00:22:01,404 --> 00:22:05,240
- dangling over filthy water.
- 476
- 00:22:05,241 --> 00:22:08,702
- But it was visually spectacular
- and it affected me.
- 477
- 00:22:08,703 --> 00:22:10,495
- I'm almost embarrassed
- to admit this.
- 478
- 00:22:10,496 --> 00:22:13,081
- I found myself
- spending the next hour
- 479
- 00:22:13,082 --> 00:22:16,418
- just kind of looking
- for a hardware store
- 480
- 00:22:16,419 --> 00:22:18,086
- in this town I
- had never been in.
- 481
- 00:22:18,087 --> 00:22:20,088
- I spent an hour
- looking and eventually
- 482
- 00:22:20,089 --> 00:22:21,465
- I found a hardware store.
- 483
- 00:22:21,466 --> 00:22:24,259
- I went in and I
- bought a bolt cutter.
- 484
- 00:22:24,260 --> 00:22:28,680
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 485
- 00:22:28,681 --> 00:22:33,602
- And I went back and I started
- snipping off the locks.
- 486
- 00:22:33,603 --> 00:22:36,772
- And with each snip
- I said, "It's over.
- 487
- 00:22:36,773 --> 00:22:39,441
- It's over.
- You're free."
- 488
- 00:22:39,442 --> 00:22:44,029
- And people were
- givin' me dirty looks.
- 489
- 00:22:44,030 --> 00:22:46,990
- What a grand romantic
- gesture right?
- 490
- 00:22:46,991 --> 00:22:51,995
- But, you know the first guy
- who did that was a psycho.
- 491
- 00:22:51,996 --> 00:22:54,247
- Like his partner
- or girlfriend was
- 492
- 00:22:54,248 --> 00:22:57,084
- not a willing participant.
- 493
- 00:22:57,085 --> 00:22:58,835
- He was like,
- "You're probably wondering
- 494
- 00:22:58,836 --> 00:23:03,131
- "why I brought you to
- the middle of the bridge,
- 495
- 00:23:03,132 --> 00:23:05,050
- "in March.
- 496
- 00:23:05,051 --> 00:23:08,595
- I'm gonna do something
- you'll never ever forget."
- 497
- 00:23:08,596 --> 00:23:12,599
- She was like, "Oh my gosh,
- are you gonna jump?"
- 498
- 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:16,603
- "No. I wanna
- put this lock here.
- 499
- 00:23:16,604 --> 00:23:19,272
- "I'll put it here as
- a symbol of our love.
- 500
- 00:23:19,273 --> 00:23:21,608
- "Soon others will do it,
- and the bridge
- 501
- 00:23:21,609 --> 00:23:23,568
- "will be covered with locks.
- 502
- 00:23:23,569 --> 00:23:25,862
- "But you'll know
- that the first lock
- 503
- 00:23:25,863 --> 00:23:28,573
- was the symbol of our love."
- 504
- 00:23:28,574 --> 00:23:32,119
- And the woman's like,
- "Is that my bike lock?"
- 505
- 00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:34,913
- (audience laughs)
- 506
- 00:23:34,914 --> 00:23:35,872
- "Not anymore."
- 507
- 00:23:35,873 --> 00:23:39,626
- (audience laughs)
- 508
- 00:23:39,627 --> 00:23:44,172
- "Jim, that's a sad story."
- 509
- 00:23:44,173 --> 00:23:47,134
- Recently, I was invited to
- a surprise birthday party.
- 510
- 00:23:47,135 --> 00:23:52,139
- It was a surprise
- birthday party for a dog.
- 511
- 00:23:52,140 --> 00:23:54,975
- That's right, I have friends
- that are mentally ill.
- 512
- 00:23:54,976 --> 00:23:57,352
- (audience laughs)
- 513
- 00:23:57,353 --> 00:23:59,312
- I went, I went. It was in
- my apartment building
- 514
- 00:23:59,313 --> 00:24:00,939
- and I needed the material.
- 515
- 00:24:00,940 --> 00:24:04,151
- (audience laughs)
- 516
- 00:24:04,152 --> 00:24:08,321
- And to be fair,
- the dog was surprised.
- 517
- 00:24:08,322 --> 00:24:10,824
- Didn't suspect a thing.
- 518
- 00:24:10,825 --> 00:24:12,492
- Dog didn't know
- it was his birthday.
- 519
- 00:24:12,493 --> 00:24:15,245
- The dog didn't know
- it had a birthday.
- 520
- 00:24:15,246 --> 00:24:19,457
- The dog wasn't sure why
- people were in the apartment.
- 521
- 00:24:19,458 --> 00:24:21,168
- It was the dog's
- third birthday,
- 522
- 00:24:21,169 --> 00:24:23,336
- which in dog years
- doesn't matter.
- 523
- 00:24:23,337 --> 00:24:25,463
- (audience laughs)
- 524
- 00:24:25,464 --> 00:24:27,799
- Someone made that up and
- we just went along with it.
- 525
- 00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:30,093
- Oh, one year equals
- seven for doggies?
- 526
- 00:24:30,094 --> 00:24:31,970
- Okay.
- 527
- 00:24:31,971 --> 00:24:36,224
- When I see a dog,
- I'll do math.
- 528
- 00:24:36,225 --> 00:24:39,227
- That's not fulfilling
- some dog need, you know?
- 529
- 00:24:39,228 --> 00:24:41,855
- There's not a dog sitting
- in a bar right now
- 530
- 00:24:41,856 --> 00:24:45,650
- going, "I'm not three,
- I'm 21!
- 531
- 00:24:45,651 --> 00:24:49,029
- I can legally drink!"
- 532
- 00:24:49,030 --> 00:24:52,574
- That's not how dogs
- keep track of time.
- 533
- 00:24:52,575 --> 00:24:55,744
- If you have a dog, you know
- they don't keep track of time.
- 534
- 00:24:55,745 --> 00:24:57,495
- You've left your home,
- forgotten something,
- 535
- 00:24:57,496 --> 00:24:59,289
- walked back in
- only to be greeted
- 536
- 00:24:59,290 --> 00:25:02,375
- by your dog like you've
- just returned from war.
- 537
- 00:25:02,376 --> 00:25:05,545
- "You're back!
- It's a miracle!
- 538
- 00:25:05,546 --> 00:25:09,090
- You're back after I don't know
- how long 'cause I'm a dog."
- 539
- 00:25:09,091 --> 00:25:13,303
- (audience laughs)
- 540
- 00:25:13,304 --> 00:25:16,181
- These poor dogs.
- 541
- 00:25:16,182 --> 00:25:20,852
- We just attach these points
- of view on these poor dogs.
- 542
- 00:25:20,853 --> 00:25:23,063
- Like dog
- is man's best friend.
- 543
- 00:25:23,064 --> 00:25:26,316
- How desperate are humans?
- 544
- 00:25:26,317 --> 00:25:28,985
- We're best friends, right?
- 545
- 00:25:28,986 --> 00:25:32,948
- Dog's like, "Well, aren't
- we different species?"
- 546
- 00:25:32,949 --> 00:25:34,449
- "But we're
- best friends forever."
- 547
- 00:25:34,450 --> 00:25:39,162
- "You know you lock me
- in the house all day,
- 548
- 00:25:39,163 --> 00:25:42,499
- "with nothing but
- a bowl of water.
- 549
- 00:25:42,500 --> 00:25:46,586
- You'd think you'd let your
- best friend sit on the couch."
- 550
- 00:25:46,587 --> 00:25:48,713
- "We're best friends. Now
- put on this fireman's outfit.
- 551
- 00:25:48,714 --> 00:25:52,592
- We're gonna do a photo
- shoot for Instagram."
- 552
- 00:25:52,593 --> 00:25:54,094
- "You know sometimes
- when you sleep,
- 553
- 00:25:54,095 --> 00:25:55,553
- I think about
- eating your face."
- 554
- 00:25:55,554 --> 00:25:58,266
- (audience laughs)
- 555
- 00:26:01,894 --> 00:26:03,645
- But I get it.
- I love dogs too.
- 556
- 00:26:03,646 --> 00:26:05,480
- I love animals.
- 557
- 00:26:05,481 --> 00:26:07,065
- We all have a friend
- that announces
- 558
- 00:26:07,066 --> 00:26:09,192
- they love animals
- in a way that implies
- 559
- 00:26:09,193 --> 00:26:12,320
- the rest of us
- are drowning kittens.
- 560
- 00:26:12,321 --> 00:26:15,824
- "Yeah, but I love animals."
- 561
- 00:26:15,825 --> 00:26:17,742
- Well, that's a pretty
- exclusive group
- 562
- 00:26:17,743 --> 00:26:22,205
- of just you and anyone
- who's not a serial killer.
- 563
- 00:26:22,206 --> 00:26:24,541
- "Yeah, but I just get
- along with animals better."
- 564
- 00:26:24,542 --> 00:26:26,668
- Or humans don't like you.
- 565
- 00:26:26,669 --> 00:26:30,964
- (audience laughs)
- 566
- 00:26:30,965 --> 00:26:33,091
- I did have
- an opportunity to
- 567
- 00:26:33,092 --> 00:26:35,343
- go on a safari,
- which was unbelievable.
- 568
- 00:26:35,344 --> 00:26:38,138
- It was breathtaking
- how bad the wifi was.
- 569
- 00:26:38,139 --> 00:26:40,849
- (audience laughs)
- 570
- 00:26:40,850 --> 00:26:42,475
- I went on a safari
- which is just
- 571
- 00:26:42,476 --> 00:26:46,187
- a fancy word
- for animal stalking.
- 572
- 00:26:46,188 --> 00:26:47,564
- 'Cause that's what
- you do on a safari.
- 573
- 00:26:47,565 --> 00:26:49,399
- You follow animals
- and watch them.
- 574
- 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,110
- You're like...
- 575
- 00:26:58,075 --> 00:26:59,117
- Beautiful.
- 576
- 00:26:59,118 --> 00:27:02,620
- (audience laughs)
- 577
- 00:27:02,621 --> 00:27:04,331
- It's a good thing
- these animals
- 578
- 00:27:04,332 --> 00:27:07,334
- can't report us
- to the police.
- 579
- 00:27:07,335 --> 00:27:10,086
- "Yeah, officer, that fat
- guy in the untucked shirt
- 580
- 00:27:10,087 --> 00:27:14,758
- "followed me for an
- hour this morning.
- 581
- 00:27:14,759 --> 00:27:18,053
- "I woke up and he was taking
- pictures of me and my family.
- 582
- 00:27:18,054 --> 00:27:20,764
- (audience laughs)
- 583
- 00:27:20,765 --> 00:27:23,767
- "We were naked.
- 584
- 00:27:23,768 --> 00:27:25,810
- Yeah, the guy who looks like
- Phillip Seymour Hoffman."
- 585
- 00:27:25,811 --> 00:27:29,647
- (audience laughs)
- 586
- 00:27:29,648 --> 00:27:32,734
- On the safari, I saw one
- animal kill another animal,
- 587
- 00:27:32,735 --> 00:27:34,652
- and intellectually I was,
- like, I don't wanna see that,
- 588
- 00:27:34,653 --> 00:27:38,323
- but emotionally in the
- moment I was like, "Get him."
- 589
- 00:27:38,324 --> 00:27:41,242
- "Kill it!"
- 590
- 00:27:41,243 --> 00:27:43,620
- My kids were totally
- savage about it.
- 591
- 00:27:43,621 --> 00:27:46,998
- They're like, "Kill him,
- kill him! I want blood."
- 592
- 00:27:46,999 --> 00:27:48,583
- My kids were with me.
- 593
- 00:27:48,584 --> 00:27:53,129
- My kids were poorly
- behaved on a safari.
- 594
- 00:27:53,130 --> 00:27:54,589
- They're six and seven,
- 595
- 00:27:54,590 --> 00:27:56,633
- and animals would walk by
- like, "Savages."
- 596
- 00:27:56,634 --> 00:27:59,010
- (audience laughs)
- 597
- 00:27:59,011 --> 00:28:01,763
- My two youngest are six
- and seven year old boys,
- 598
- 00:28:01,764 --> 00:28:03,932
- and they're total savages.
- 599
- 00:28:03,933 --> 00:28:05,600
- They're constantly
- picking on me.
- 600
- 00:28:05,601 --> 00:28:07,727
- They're jumping on me
- and they pick on me.
- 601
- 00:28:07,728 --> 00:28:10,271
- How they pick on me recently
- is they make fun of my,
- 602
- 00:28:10,272 --> 00:28:12,899
- what they call
- my huge boy part.
- 603
- 00:28:12,900 --> 00:28:15,568
- (audience laughs)
- 604
- 00:28:15,569 --> 00:28:18,738
- Now before you think I'm
- walking around the house naked,
- 605
- 00:28:18,739 --> 00:28:22,826
- or in fact
- have a huge boy part,
- 606
- 00:28:22,827 --> 00:28:25,620
- you should know that, like,
- when you have young sons,
- 607
- 00:28:25,621 --> 00:28:28,415
- you have to constantly
- encourage them to
- use the bathroom,
- 608
- 00:28:28,416 --> 00:28:30,458
- and if you're a dad,
- sometimes you pee with them,
- 609
- 00:28:30,459 --> 00:28:33,461
- so that's why they've
- seen my boy part.
- 610
- 00:28:33,462 --> 00:28:35,004
- But that doesn't
- explain why sometimes
- 611
- 00:28:35,005 --> 00:28:36,673
- at dinner, they'll
- just point at me
- 612
- 00:28:36,674 --> 00:28:41,136
- and giggle, and go,
- "Dad and his huge boy part."
- 613
- 00:28:41,137 --> 00:28:42,429
- I never know what to say.
- 614
- 00:28:42,430 --> 00:28:45,765
- I'm like, "Guilty."
- 615
- 00:28:45,766 --> 00:28:47,851
- "Got me again.
- Did you hear that honey?"
- 616
- 00:28:47,852 --> 00:28:50,563
- (audience laughs)
- 617
- 00:28:57,194 --> 00:28:58,653
- Lovely weather out there.
- 618
- 00:28:58,654 --> 00:29:00,447
- (audience laughs)
- 619
- 00:29:00,448 --> 00:29:02,532
- I prefer the cold to hot.
- I do.
- 620
- 00:29:02,533 --> 00:29:04,451
- I know that's surprising
- looking at me,
- 621
- 00:29:04,452 --> 00:29:07,078
- given I look like a snowman.
- 622
- 00:29:07,079 --> 00:29:08,955
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 623
- 00:29:08,956 --> 00:29:10,623
- But I prefer
- the cold you know?
- 624
- 00:29:10,624 --> 00:29:12,625
- Last summer
- I was in Las Vegas.
- 625
- 00:29:12,626 --> 00:29:15,462
- It was 114 degrees.
- 626
- 00:29:15,463 --> 00:29:17,297
- 114 degrees.
- 627
- 00:29:17,298 --> 00:29:20,008
- You can actually hear
- the sun at that point.
- 628
- 00:29:20,009 --> 00:29:22,760
- (imitates sun crackling)
- 629
- 00:29:22,761 --> 00:29:24,512
- It didn't feel safe.
- 630
- 00:29:24,513 --> 00:29:28,475
- I was, like, "Are we
- supposed to be here?"
- 631
- 00:29:28,476 --> 00:29:30,143
- 114-- Like, you're never
- at a friends house
- 632
- 00:29:30,144 --> 00:29:31,561
- and, "Warm in here."
- 633
- 00:29:31,562 --> 00:29:35,231
- "Yeah, I set the
- thermostat to 114.
- 634
- 00:29:35,232 --> 00:29:37,775
- That's how I like it.
- I'm part lizard."
- 635
- 00:29:37,776 --> 00:29:40,278
- (audience laughs)
- 636
- 00:29:40,279 --> 00:29:42,197
- Thermostats don't
- even go up that high.
- 637
- 00:29:42,198 --> 00:29:46,159
- Meat thermometers do.
- 638
- 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,120
- I think God is just
- cooking people in Vegas.
- 639
- 00:29:49,121 --> 00:29:50,663
- (imitates sun crackling)
- 640
- 00:29:50,664 --> 00:29:52,999
- "Ooh, that one's smoking.
- I love smoked meat."
- 641
- 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:55,502
- (imitates sun crackling)
- 642
- 00:29:55,503 --> 00:29:59,088
- It was 114 degrees,
- which was shocking,
- 643
- 00:29:59,089 --> 00:30:02,592
- but not as shocking as how
- casually Las Vegas residents
- 644
- 00:30:02,593 --> 00:30:04,636
- just went about their
- day in that heat.
- 645
- 00:30:04,637 --> 00:30:05,970
- It was like...
- (imitates sun crackling)
- 646
- 00:30:05,971 --> 00:30:07,347
- They were like,
- "Let's play Frisbee.
- 647
- 00:30:07,348 --> 00:30:08,556
- Time to walk the dog."
- 648
- 00:30:08,557 --> 00:30:11,476
- I was like, "Get inside!
- 649
- 00:30:11,477 --> 00:30:14,395
- "The Earth is on fire!
- 650
- 00:30:14,396 --> 00:30:18,525
- "Get inside and beg
- for God's forgiveness.
- 651
- 00:30:18,526 --> 00:30:22,195
- You've obviously angered him!"
- 652
- 00:30:22,196 --> 00:30:24,239
- That's why Vegas
- is called Sin City,
- 653
- 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,201
- it's the same
- temperature as Hell.
- 654
- 00:30:28,202 --> 00:30:30,036
- I have a friend
- from Vegas.
- 655
- 00:30:30,037 --> 00:30:31,162
- I told him it was 114.
- 656
- 00:30:31,163 --> 00:30:32,539
- He goes, "That's nothin'."
- 657
- 00:30:32,540 --> 00:30:35,250
- I'm like,
- "No, that's somethin'.
- 658
- 00:30:35,251 --> 00:30:38,461
- That's actually the
- temperature you boil water at."
- 659
- 00:30:38,462 --> 00:30:42,549
- He's, like, "It's not that bad."
- "Not if you're makin' Ramen."
- 660
- 00:30:42,550 --> 00:30:44,092
- He's, like,
- "That's our summer."
- 661
- 00:30:44,093 --> 00:30:45,969
- That's not summer.
- 662
- 00:30:45,970 --> 00:30:47,887
- Summer is when you
- barbecue on the grill,
- 663
- 00:30:47,888 --> 00:30:50,265
- not the side walk.
- 664
- 00:30:50,266 --> 00:30:53,726
- It's so weird to be places
- where summer is the enemy.
- 665
- 00:30:53,727 --> 00:30:55,937
- I was, like, in the
- southwest, they talk
- 666
- 00:30:55,938 --> 00:30:57,605
- about summer like
- it's an ex lover
- 667
- 00:30:57,606 --> 00:30:59,691
- they never wanna see again.
- 668
- 00:30:59,692 --> 00:31:04,195
- "We gotta get outta here
- before summer gets here.
- 669
- 00:31:04,196 --> 00:31:08,616
- Last year, I couldn't leave my
- house when summer was here."
- 670
- 00:31:08,617 --> 00:31:10,577
- You ever notice the
- further north you go,
- 671
- 00:31:10,578 --> 00:31:12,787
- the more obsessed
- people are with summer?
- 672
- 00:31:12,788 --> 00:31:15,707
- Like I-- In February,
- I was in Bangor, Maine,
- 673
- 00:31:15,708 --> 00:31:17,625
- and everyone was
- talking about summer.
- 674
- 00:31:17,626 --> 00:31:19,836
- Everyone I met, they're
- like, "You gotta come
- back during summer.
- 675
- 00:31:19,837 --> 00:31:21,963
- You gotta come back."
- 676
- 00:31:21,964 --> 00:31:23,715
- Which is a strange
- way to greet someone.
- 677
- 00:31:23,716 --> 00:31:25,425
- "Hi, how are ya?
- Come back later."
- 678
- 00:31:25,426 --> 00:31:28,511
- (audience laughs)
- 679
- 00:31:28,512 --> 00:31:29,846
- And it was everyone.
- 680
- 00:31:29,847 --> 00:31:31,139
- "You gotta come
- back during summer,
- 681
- 00:31:31,140 --> 00:31:34,017
- you gotta, I'm--"
- "Yeah but I'm here now."
- 682
- 00:31:34,018 --> 00:31:35,893
- "Just make sure
- you come back."
- 683
- 00:31:35,894 --> 00:31:37,770
- "I didn't wanna
- come the first time."
- 684
- 00:31:37,771 --> 00:31:39,814
- (audience laughs)
- 685
- 00:31:39,815 --> 00:31:42,233
- But I love how northern
- cities sell summer.
- 686
- 00:31:42,234 --> 00:31:44,193
- Like, "Summer here's
- unbelievable.
- 687
- 00:31:44,194 --> 00:31:47,780
- It's perfect. For one twelfth
- of the year it's ideal.
- 688
- 00:31:47,781 --> 00:31:49,198
- "Otherwise
- it's a tundra filled
- 689
- 00:31:49,199 --> 00:31:52,577
- "with alcoholism
- and depression.
- 690
- 00:31:52,578 --> 00:31:55,955
- But for those 13 odd
- days it's worth it."
- 691
- 00:31:55,956 --> 00:31:58,124
- (audience laughs, cheers)
- 692
- 00:31:58,125 --> 00:32:01,127
- I did nothing today.
- 693
- 00:32:01,128 --> 00:32:02,837
- Didn't feel any
- pressure to do anything.
- 694
- 00:32:02,838 --> 00:32:04,881
- Some places you feel like
- a pressure to do something,
- 695
- 00:32:04,882 --> 00:32:07,508
- like St. Louis,
- "You gotta go see our arch."
- 696
- 00:32:07,509 --> 00:32:09,594
- "I don't want to."
- 697
- 00:32:09,595 --> 00:32:11,596
- "Go look at our arch."
- 698
- 00:32:11,597 --> 00:32:16,142
- "Why don't I just go
- McDonald's and see two?"
- 699
- 00:32:16,143 --> 00:32:18,436
- San Antonio, "You
- gotta go to the Alamo."
- 700
- 00:32:18,437 --> 00:32:20,730
- "I was gonna nap."
- 701
- 00:32:20,731 --> 00:32:22,732
- "No, you're gonna stand
- outside in blistering heat
- 702
- 00:32:22,733 --> 00:32:24,817
- and look at a building."
- 703
- 00:32:24,818 --> 00:32:29,030
- "Can't I just say
- I forgot about the Alamo?"
- 704
- 00:32:29,031 --> 00:32:31,199
- You know who didn't
- wanna go to the Alamo?
- 705
- 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,576
- The people who
- died at the Alamo.
- 706
- 00:32:33,577 --> 00:32:35,078
- I bet their
- last thought was,
- 707
- 00:32:35,079 --> 00:32:36,996
- "I wish I didn't
- go to the Alamo.
- 708
- 00:32:36,997 --> 00:32:40,541
- I thought it was a
- rental car company."
- 709
- 00:32:40,542 --> 00:32:43,211
- Can you imagine
- that level of bravery?
- 710
- 00:32:43,212 --> 00:32:47,131
- 187 Texans fought
- 2,000 of Santa Anna's
- 711
- 00:32:47,132 --> 00:32:49,717
- finest Mexican troops
- and at one point
- 712
- 00:32:49,718 --> 00:32:51,969
- those 180 Texans
- just decided,
- 713
- 00:32:51,970 --> 00:32:54,639
- "We should just fight
- 'til we all die."
- 714
- 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,307
- Like, if I was there
- I would've been like,
- 715
- 00:32:56,308 --> 00:32:58,559
- "Excuse me.
- I love the idea of Texas too,
- 716
- 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:03,314
- "but have you tried
- this Mexican food?
- 717
- 00:33:03,315 --> 00:33:07,652
- "It is delicioso.
- 718
- 00:33:07,653 --> 00:33:11,864
- I propose we remember
- the guacamole."
- 719
- 00:33:11,865 --> 00:33:15,660
- Of course Vegas, the big
- assignment is to gamble.
- 720
- 00:33:15,661 --> 00:33:18,121
- Nobody every admits
- they gamble when
- they go to Las Vegas.
- 721
- 00:33:18,122 --> 00:33:19,872
- "You goin' to Vegas,
- you gonna gamble?"
- 722
- 00:33:19,873 --> 00:33:22,041
- "No, I'm gonna see shows."
- 723
- 00:33:22,042 --> 00:33:23,334
- "You're not gonna
- gamble at all?"
- 724
- 00:33:23,335 --> 00:33:25,169
- "Well, if I walk by
- a poker table
- 725
- 00:33:25,170 --> 00:33:29,882
- "I might sit down
- and lose $10,000.
- 726
- 00:33:29,883 --> 00:33:33,469
- I'm mainly going
- for the shows."
- 727
- 00:33:33,470 --> 00:33:35,471
- We don't like to
- admit we gamble.
- People never admit it.
- 728
- 00:33:35,472 --> 00:33:37,140
- They're like,
- "I'm not gambling,
- 729
- 00:33:37,141 --> 00:33:39,142
- "I'm just pulling this lever.
- I like to pull levers.
- 730
- 00:33:39,143 --> 00:33:40,852
- "It's a good arm workout.
- 731
- 00:33:40,853 --> 00:33:43,020
- "I'm not gambling, I'm just
- watching these horses run
- 732
- 00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:45,940
- and letting the winner
- determine if I keep my home."
- 733
- 00:33:45,941 --> 00:33:48,192
- (audience laughs)
- 734
- 00:33:48,193 --> 00:33:50,695
- We are country that
- loves to bet on horses.
- 735
- 00:33:50,696 --> 00:33:52,739
- Every spring,
- we track the three races
- 736
- 00:33:52,740 --> 00:33:54,073
- of the Triple Crown,
- and every spring
- 737
- 00:33:54,074 --> 00:33:55,283
- I always have
- the same thought.
- 738
- 00:33:55,284 --> 00:33:57,660
- We're still doing this?
- 739
- 00:33:57,661 --> 00:34:00,997
- Is Woodrow Wilson president?
- 740
- 00:34:00,998 --> 00:34:02,707
- But people love
- the Triple Crown.
- 741
- 00:34:02,708 --> 00:34:05,168
- The Kentucky Derby,
- where people bet on horses
- 742
- 00:34:05,169 --> 00:34:09,046
- while they're dressed
- like characters from
- "Gone with the Wind."
- 743
- 00:34:09,047 --> 00:34:12,341
- It's like prom for gamblers.
- 744
- 00:34:12,342 --> 00:34:13,843
- "Do you like my hat?
- 745
- 00:34:13,844 --> 00:34:15,553
- I'm living in
- my sisters garage."
- 746
- 00:34:15,554 --> 00:34:17,889
- (audience laughs)
- 747
- 00:34:17,890 --> 00:34:21,184
- "'Cause I have a debilitating
- gambling addiction.
- 748
- 00:34:21,185 --> 00:34:25,104
- Shall we have
- another mint julep?"
- 749
- 00:34:25,105 --> 00:34:26,689
- They always
- announce the winner
- 750
- 00:34:26,690 --> 00:34:27,982
- of each race on the news.
- 751
- 00:34:27,983 --> 00:34:29,400
- You can always tell the horse
- 752
- 00:34:29,401 --> 00:34:31,235
- was named by a guy
- on his eighth wife.
- 753
- 00:34:31,236 --> 00:34:35,823
- The horse is always named
- like Viagra's Revenge.
- 754
- 00:34:35,824 --> 00:34:38,659
- Alimony Be Damned.
- 755
- 00:34:38,660 --> 00:34:40,953
- They show a picture of the
- winning horse on the news.
- 756
- 00:34:40,954 --> 00:34:42,580
- They could show us
- a picture of any horse,
- 757
- 00:34:42,581 --> 00:34:44,874
- we wouldn't
- know the difference.
- 758
- 00:34:44,875 --> 00:34:47,168
- I don't know
- what we're supposed
- to do with that horse image.
- 759
- 00:34:47,169 --> 00:34:51,255
- It's not like we're gonna
- run into that horse in a bar.
- 760
- 00:34:51,256 --> 00:34:54,592
- "Excuse me, did you win
- the Kentucky Derby?"
- 761
- 00:34:54,593 --> 00:34:57,720
- "I did,
- I won the Kentucky Derby.
- 762
- 00:34:57,721 --> 00:35:01,557
- Now I'm in a bar,
- enjoying a Heiferweizen."
- 763
- 00:35:01,558 --> 00:35:04,602
- There is the classic photo
- of the winning horse right?
- 764
- 00:35:04,603 --> 00:35:06,687
- They're always wearing
- that huge horseshoe
- 765
- 00:35:06,688 --> 00:35:10,817
- wreath of flowers they stole
- from someone's grave site.
- 766
- 00:35:10,818 --> 00:35:12,568
- Standing next to
- the winning horse
- 767
- 00:35:12,569 --> 00:35:15,029
- is the owner of the horse,
- who did not train the horse,
- 768
- 00:35:15,030 --> 00:35:17,740
- did not ride the horse,
- and based on body language
- 769
- 00:35:17,741 --> 00:35:20,660
- has never really
- met the horse.
- 770
- 00:35:20,661 --> 00:35:26,165
- There the owner stands,
- looking like they've
- never paid taxes.
- 771
- 00:35:26,166 --> 00:35:28,125
- Sitting on top of
- the winning horse
- 772
- 00:35:28,126 --> 00:35:29,585
- is the jockey,
- who's dressed like
- 773
- 00:35:29,586 --> 00:35:33,840
- he just came from
- a local pride parade.
- 774
- 00:35:33,841 --> 00:35:36,259
- They always interview the
- jockey expecting some insight.
- 775
- 00:35:36,260 --> 00:35:37,969
- They're like, "How'd you win?"
- 776
- 00:35:37,970 --> 00:35:40,137
- The jockey's like, "I whipped
- the horse and it ran."
- 777
- 00:35:40,138 --> 00:35:42,139
- (audience laughs)
- 778
- 00:35:42,140 --> 00:35:44,308
- It's very rare
- for a horse to win
- 779
- 00:35:44,309 --> 00:35:45,935
- all three races in
- the Triple Crown,
- 780
- 00:35:45,936 --> 00:35:50,565
- mainly 'cause they're
- horses and they don't care.
- 781
- 00:35:50,566 --> 00:35:54,443
- Mostly they just want someone
- to stop whipping them,
- 782
- 00:35:54,444 --> 00:35:56,571
- 'cause they're horses.
- 783
- 00:35:56,572 --> 00:35:57,989
- I didn't know this.
- 784
- 00:35:57,990 --> 00:36:00,199
- After the Triple Crown,
- all those horses retire.
- 785
- 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,202
- They retire
- at the age of three.
- 786
- 00:36:03,203 --> 00:36:05,580
- It feels early.
- 787
- 00:36:05,581 --> 00:36:07,540
- They retire and then
- they're sent out to stud.
- 788
- 00:36:07,541 --> 00:36:10,042
- Those horses get
- paid to have sex,
- 789
- 00:36:10,043 --> 00:36:14,213
- which in some ways is better
- than winning the Triple Crown.
- 790
- 00:36:14,214 --> 00:36:16,924
- That's like
- the quadruple crown.
- 791
- 00:36:16,925 --> 00:36:19,135
- That's gotta be an
- adjustment for those horses.
- 792
- 00:36:19,136 --> 00:36:20,678
- Like, "Hey, remember
- when we whipped you
- 793
- 00:36:20,679 --> 00:36:22,054
- "and we wanted you to run?
- 794
- 00:36:22,055 --> 00:36:24,432
- "Well, now when we
- whip you, we're gonna
- 795
- 00:36:24,433 --> 00:36:26,392
- have you do something
- a little different."
- 796
- 00:36:26,393 --> 00:36:29,770
- (audience laughs)
- 797
- 00:36:29,771 --> 00:36:33,190
- "How many horse jokes
- is this guy gonna do?
- 798
- 00:36:33,191 --> 00:36:37,194
- I never thought
- I'd miss a murder joke."
- 799
- 00:36:37,195 --> 00:36:40,156
- There's a lot more
- horse jokes.
- 800
- 00:36:40,157 --> 00:36:43,910
- And if you haven't noticed,
- I know nothing about horses.
- 801
- 00:36:43,911 --> 00:36:46,662
- I don't horseback ride
- mainly because
- 802
- 00:36:46,663 --> 00:36:52,293
- I prefer to be comfortable,
- and it's not the 1800's.
- 803
- 00:36:52,294 --> 00:36:54,086
- I'm sure the horses
- aren't thrilled either.
- 804
- 00:36:54,087 --> 00:36:55,630
- They're like, "Why am I
- carrying you around?
- 805
- 00:36:55,631 --> 00:36:58,633
- I saw you drive up
- in a Honda Civic?"
- 806
- 00:36:58,634 --> 00:37:02,303
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 807
- 00:37:02,304 --> 00:37:04,013
- But people like
- to horseback ride.
- 808
- 00:37:04,014 --> 00:37:05,932
- I have a friend,
- she told me the reason
- 809
- 00:37:05,933 --> 00:37:08,351
- she enjoys horseback riding
- is 'cause she loves horses
- 810
- 00:37:08,352 --> 00:37:10,269
- which seems like
- a strange way
- 811
- 00:37:10,270 --> 00:37:12,688
- of expressing love
- for something.
- 812
- 00:37:12,689 --> 00:37:15,983
- Making it carry you
- around on its back.
- 813
- 00:37:15,984 --> 00:37:18,110
- I mean I love my
- Great Aunt Katie.
- 814
- 00:37:18,111 --> 00:37:20,488
- (audience laughs)
- 815
- 00:37:20,489 --> 00:37:24,283
- I'm not gonna make her
- carry me around on her back.
- 816
- 00:37:24,284 --> 00:37:25,326
- Not anymore, yeah.
- 817
- 00:37:25,327 --> 00:37:27,536
- (audience laughs)
- 818
- 00:37:27,537 --> 00:37:29,163
- I don't even know why
- we have to specify
- 819
- 00:37:29,164 --> 00:37:31,749
- that it's horse-back riding.
- 820
- 00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:34,377
- (audience laughs)
- 821
- 00:37:34,378 --> 00:37:36,170
- Are there people like,
- "Hey, you wanna ride a horse?
- 822
- 00:37:36,171 --> 00:37:38,422
- What part?"
- 823
- 00:37:38,423 --> 00:37:41,676
- (audience laughs)
- 824
- 00:37:41,677 --> 00:37:45,554
- "The part that looks
- like a seat, the back."
- 825
- 00:37:45,555 --> 00:37:49,100
- "Oh good, 'cause I've
- done horse-ass riding.
- 826
- 00:37:49,101 --> 00:37:51,102
- That was painful,
- I kept fallin' off."
- 827
- 00:37:51,103 --> 00:37:53,479
- (audience laughs)
- 828
- 00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:55,064
- I should probably tell you,
- 829
- 00:37:55,065 --> 00:37:57,358
- the rest of the show
- is all horse jokes.
- 830
- 00:37:57,359 --> 00:37:59,110
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 831
- 00:37:59,111 --> 00:38:02,488
- (gasps)
- "Is he serious?"
- 832
- 00:38:02,489 --> 00:38:04,866
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 833
- 00:38:07,327 --> 00:38:09,620
- There are different
- types of horses.
- 834
- 00:38:09,621 --> 00:38:11,873
- (audience laughs)
- 835
- 00:38:13,208 --> 00:38:15,960
- "He's gonna
- keep going isn't he?"
- 836
- 00:38:15,961 --> 00:38:18,295
- No, there are breeds
- of horses, right?
- 837
- 00:38:18,296 --> 00:38:20,214
- Which is different
- from horse breeding.
- 838
- 00:38:20,215 --> 00:38:22,258
- I don't know if you've ever
- seen two horses breed,
- 839
- 00:38:22,259 --> 00:38:24,927
- but that'll keep you
- awake at night.
- 840
- 00:38:24,928 --> 00:38:29,056
- If you've never
- seen two horses breed,
- do not YouTube it.
- 841
- 00:38:29,057 --> 00:38:31,559
- Do not YouTube it and
- print out still images.
- 842
- 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,185
- Don't do that.
- 843
- 00:38:33,186 --> 00:38:34,979
- Don't affix your face
- on one of the images
- 844
- 00:38:34,980 --> 00:38:36,188
- and show your wife
- and think it's funny.
- 845
- 00:38:36,189 --> 00:38:38,524
- She won't think it's funny.
- 846
- 00:38:38,525 --> 00:38:42,194
- But that says more
- about her then you.
- 847
- 00:38:42,195 --> 00:38:43,279
- What was I talkin' about?
- 848
- 00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,740
- Horses.
- 849
- 00:38:45,741 --> 00:38:47,616
- It's strange how
- we treat horses.
- 850
- 00:38:47,617 --> 00:38:49,035
- We give horses shoes.
- 851
- 00:38:49,036 --> 00:38:51,912
- I don't even know
- if horses need shoes.
- 852
- 00:38:51,913 --> 00:38:54,749
- You never seen a horse in the
- wild walking around like, "Ow!
- 853
- 00:38:54,750 --> 00:38:56,459
- "Ow!
- 854
- 00:38:56,460 --> 00:38:59,879
- I wish I had some damn shoes!"
- 855
- 00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,506
- We give horses shoes
- that are metal.
- 856
- 00:39:02,507 --> 00:39:03,591
- Metal.
- 857
- 00:39:03,592 --> 00:39:07,678
- That's worse then Crocs.
- 858
- 00:39:07,679 --> 00:39:09,722
- That must be hard
- to shop for right?
- 859
- 00:39:09,723 --> 00:39:11,640
- "Do you have anything in
- metal but not a slip on?
- 860
- 00:39:11,641 --> 00:39:14,810
- Something I can
- nail to my foot."
- 861
- 00:39:14,811 --> 00:39:19,065
- That's what we do,
- we nail it to their foot!
- 862
- 00:39:19,066 --> 00:39:21,400
- And when we're not doing
- that, we're literally
- 863
- 00:39:21,401 --> 00:39:25,196
- tossing the horseshoe
- around as a game.
- 864
- 00:39:25,197 --> 00:39:29,700
- The horse must be like,
- "What the hell are you
- doin' with my shoes?
- 865
- 00:39:29,701 --> 00:39:31,869
- It probably looks like
- we're taunting the horse.
- 866
- 00:39:31,870 --> 00:39:34,747
- "Hey, horse, why don't you
- come and get your shoes?
- 867
- 00:39:34,748 --> 00:39:36,415
- "Why don't you go and grab it?
- 868
- 00:39:36,416 --> 00:39:40,211
- Oh, you can't, 'cause
- you don't have hands!"
- 869
- 00:39:40,212 --> 00:39:45,925
- The horse shoe,
- a symbol of luck for
- everyone but the horse.
- 870
- 00:39:45,926 --> 00:39:47,635
- I don't know
- if this is true.
- 871
- 00:39:47,636 --> 00:39:49,553
- Someone told me that when
- horses are sent out to stud,
- 872
- 00:39:49,554 --> 00:39:53,808
- some female horses will
- wear high heel horse shoes.
- 873
- 00:39:53,809 --> 00:39:55,267
- Makes them more confident.
- 874
- 00:39:55,268 --> 00:39:58,562
- "I'm gonna be payin'
- for this later on.
- 875
- 00:39:58,563 --> 00:40:00,689
- Oh, and I've been
- on my feet all day."
- 876
- 00:40:00,690 --> 00:40:03,485
- (audience laughs)
- 877
- 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,989
- "That's gotta be the
- end of the horse jokes."
- 878
- 00:40:08,990 --> 00:40:11,242
- Horse people,
- 879
- 00:40:11,243 --> 00:40:12,785
- and I'm not
- talkin' about people
- 880
- 00:40:12,786 --> 00:40:15,621
- that are half-horse,
- half-human,
- 881
- 00:40:15,622 --> 00:40:18,916
- which are centaur's
- and they don't exist...
- 882
- 00:40:18,917 --> 00:40:21,418
- anymore, right?
- 883
- 00:40:21,419 --> 00:40:23,504
- No, people who own
- horses will tell you
- 884
- 00:40:23,505 --> 00:40:26,632
- that the horse can't even feel
- the nail going in their foot.
- 885
- 00:40:26,633 --> 00:40:28,634
- Not that anyone's ever
- heard a horse go,
- 886
- 00:40:28,635 --> 00:40:30,928
- "That's fine, hammer away.
- 887
- 00:40:30,929 --> 00:40:33,556
- Next time glue,
- just don't tell me where
- you got the glue from."
- 888
- 00:40:33,557 --> 00:40:36,392
- (audience laughs)
- 889
- 00:40:36,393 --> 00:40:39,562
- Oh, that was too edgy?
- 890
- 00:40:39,563 --> 00:40:42,982
- There's no horses in here.
- 891
- 00:40:42,983 --> 00:40:44,608
- There's not a horse
- in the front row goin',
- 892
- 00:40:44,609 --> 00:40:47,945
- "Hey, take it easy on
- the glue jokes. I'm gonna--"
- 893
- 00:40:47,946 --> 00:40:49,321
- I love how some of you
- look for it.
- 894
- 00:40:49,322 --> 00:40:50,990
- "Is there a horse out there?"
- 895
- 00:40:50,991 --> 00:40:52,742
- (audience laughs)
- 896
- 00:40:56,621 --> 00:40:59,915
- It's strange how we
- treat horses, you know?
- 897
- 00:40:59,916 --> 00:41:01,667
- The most shocking way
- how we treat horses
- 898
- 00:41:01,668 --> 00:41:05,921
- is when they break
- their leg, we shoot them.
- 899
- 00:41:05,922 --> 00:41:09,216
- That's a harsh medical plan.
- 900
- 00:41:09,217 --> 00:41:10,885
- And someone explained
- the reason
- 901
- 00:41:10,886 --> 00:41:12,761
- they shoot horses when
- they break their leg
- 902
- 00:41:12,762 --> 00:41:14,597
- is 'cause it's
- unlikely the leg
- 903
- 00:41:14,598 --> 00:41:17,099
- will heal properly,
- and I was like, unlikely?
- 904
- 00:41:17,100 --> 00:41:19,476
- So there's a chance?
- 905
- 00:41:19,477 --> 00:41:21,979
- Can you imagine how
- stressed out horses must be?
- 906
- 00:41:21,980 --> 00:41:23,439
- Like, "I stepped on a branch.
- 907
- 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,150
- "It was a branch,
- put down the gun!
- 908
- 00:41:26,151 --> 00:41:27,568
- Look at the branch,
- it's a branch!"
- 909
- 00:41:27,569 --> 00:41:29,111
- Even if they're
- injured they're like,
- 910
- 00:41:29,112 --> 00:41:31,488
- "I'll walk it off,
- I'm gonna walk it off.
- 911
- 00:41:31,489 --> 00:41:32,531
- "Put the gun down, jeez.
- 912
- 00:41:32,532 --> 00:41:35,117
- "You guys, anyone?
- 913
- 00:41:35,118 --> 00:41:36,410
- "Have you ever
- heard of Ben Gay?
- 914
- 00:41:36,411 --> 00:41:38,245
- What's goin' on?
- Put down the gun!"
- 915
- 00:41:38,246 --> 00:41:41,041
- (audience laughs)
- 916
- 00:41:44,002 --> 00:41:47,254
- I can see on
- some of your faces,
- 917
- 00:41:47,255 --> 00:41:50,966
- that you would frankly prefer
- if I did more horse jokes.
- 918
- 00:41:50,967 --> 00:41:52,801
- (audience laughs)
- 919
- 00:41:52,802 --> 00:41:57,182
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 920
- 00:42:01,436 --> 00:42:02,728
- Okay.
- 921
- 00:42:02,729 --> 00:42:04,396
- (audience laughs)
- 922
- 00:42:04,397 --> 00:42:06,982
- It's odd, how we
- treat horses 'cause
- 923
- 00:42:06,983 --> 00:42:08,651
- we live in this
- era where we treat
- 924
- 00:42:08,652 --> 00:42:11,403
- our dogs and cats
- as family members.
- 925
- 00:42:11,404 --> 00:42:13,656
- People are always trying to
- get their dog on an airplane.
- 926
- 00:42:13,657 --> 00:42:15,241
- You know it's just
- a matter of time
- 927
- 00:42:15,242 --> 00:42:17,618
- before someone brings
- a horse on a plane.
- 928
- 00:42:17,619 --> 00:42:20,579
- "Are you kidding me?
- 929
- 00:42:20,580 --> 00:42:23,874
- "This is my therapy horse.
- 930
- 00:42:23,875 --> 00:42:26,752
- He keeps me calm
- on the flight."
- 931
- 00:42:26,753 --> 00:42:31,048
- "We'd like to welcome
- our Silver Medallion
- members to board.
- 932
- 00:42:31,049 --> 00:42:34,969
- "And anyone traveling
- with a farm animal,
- 933
- 00:42:34,970 --> 00:42:37,638
- "you can board at Gate 47.
- 934
- 00:42:37,639 --> 00:42:40,307
- Feel free to grab some
- sugar cubes that we've..."
- 935
- 00:42:40,308 --> 00:42:43,103
- (audience laughs)
- 936
- 00:42:46,564 --> 00:42:48,816
- Horse power.
- 937
- 00:42:48,817 --> 00:42:49,985
- (audience laughs)
- 938
- 00:42:52,195 --> 00:42:56,115
- Horse power is so
- different from girl power.
- 939
- 00:42:56,116 --> 00:42:59,285
- Do you know what I mean?
- It's like, "You go, horse!"
- 940
- 00:42:59,286 --> 00:43:02,204
- Hey!
- 941
- 00:43:02,205 --> 00:43:04,164
- Hay is what horses eat.
- 942
- 00:43:04,165 --> 00:43:06,918
- (audience laughs)
- 943
- 00:43:08,503 --> 00:43:10,379
- Okay, I can tell at this point
- 944
- 00:43:10,380 --> 00:43:14,216
- there's probably one
- or two, or 300 of you,
- 945
- 00:43:14,217 --> 00:43:16,635
- that are frankly annoyed
- by the horse jokes.
- 946
- 00:43:16,636 --> 00:43:18,512
- (audience laughs)
- 947
- 00:43:18,513 --> 00:43:20,389
- And I want you to know that
- 948
- 00:43:20,390 --> 00:43:23,183
- your annoyance
- gives me pleasure.
- 949
- 00:43:23,184 --> 00:43:24,685
- (audience laughs)
- 950
- 00:43:24,686 --> 00:43:29,607
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 951
- 00:43:31,693 --> 00:43:33,444
- All right, you know what?
- That's, that's--
- 952
- 00:43:33,445 --> 00:43:35,612
- No more horse jokes.
- I promise, I promise.
- 953
- 00:43:35,613 --> 00:43:38,449
- All right?
- Anyway, um...
- 954
- 00:43:38,450 --> 00:43:40,743
- ponies...
- 955
- 00:43:40,744 --> 00:43:42,036
- are completely different.
- 956
- 00:43:42,037 --> 00:43:44,204
- (audience laughs)
- 957
- 00:43:44,205 --> 00:43:45,497
- Here's the problem with doing
- 958
- 00:43:45,498 --> 00:43:48,625
- roughly 10 minutes
- of horse jokes.
- 959
- 00:43:48,626 --> 00:43:50,294
- Besides the audience
- hating you
- 960
- 00:43:50,295 --> 00:43:52,379
- for the rest
- of their lives.
- 961
- 00:43:52,380 --> 00:43:54,465
- It's for the next
- couple minutes
- 962
- 00:43:54,466 --> 00:43:56,550
- you will all be like,
- "Is there a horse joke comin'?"
- 963
- 00:43:56,551 --> 00:43:58,844
- (audience laughs)
- 964
- 00:43:58,845 --> 00:44:02,306
- Or you're gonna be
- like, "He coulda put a
- horse joke in there.
- 965
- 00:44:02,307 --> 00:44:03,807
- "He didn't use the
- reference 'giddy up.'
- 966
- 00:44:03,808 --> 00:44:06,435
- Why wouldn't he
- put it in there?"
- 967
- 00:44:06,436 --> 00:44:09,521
- But I want you to put
- the horse jokes aside.
- 968
- 00:44:09,522 --> 00:44:12,608
- Put them in a barn.
- 969
- 00:44:12,609 --> 00:44:14,527
- And I'm gonna talk
- about something else.
- 970
- 00:44:17,072 --> 00:44:18,864
- Maybe.
- 971
- 00:44:18,865 --> 00:44:20,366
- No, it's over.
- 972
- 00:44:20,367 --> 00:44:23,243
- I-- You know,
- as I mentioned earlier
- 973
- 00:44:23,244 --> 00:44:24,870
- I did some shows
- in Europe and I only
- 974
- 00:44:24,871 --> 00:44:28,665
- bring that up to
- try and impress you.
- 975
- 00:44:28,666 --> 00:44:30,459
- But I flew over.
- 976
- 00:44:30,460 --> 00:44:34,004
- Really the only way to
- get across the Atlantic.
- 977
- 00:44:34,005 --> 00:44:35,798
- You rarely run into someone
- who's like, "You know what?
- 978
- 00:44:35,799 --> 00:44:38,967
- I paddle boarded.
- It was a great arm workout."
- 979
- 00:44:38,968 --> 00:44:42,596
- I flew over.
- That transatlantic flight
- wipes people out.
- 980
- 00:44:42,597 --> 00:44:44,306
- People are a mess.
- 981
- 00:44:44,307 --> 00:44:46,892
- They're like, "I need a day.
- I need a day."
- 982
- 00:44:46,893 --> 00:44:49,103
- The flight doesn't
- sound that hard.
- 983
- 00:44:49,104 --> 00:44:50,562
- It's like, "Oh, it was brutal.
- 984
- 00:44:50,563 --> 00:44:53,440
- "I had to sit and
- watch two movies.
- 985
- 00:44:53,441 --> 00:44:56,819
- "I felt like I was
- being water boarded.
- 986
- 00:44:56,820 --> 00:44:58,445
- I need a day."
- 987
- 00:44:58,446 --> 00:45:02,032
- I was flying back,
- 3,000 miles, seven hours.
- 988
- 00:45:02,033 --> 00:45:03,700
- We landed.
- The guy sitting next to me
- 989
- 00:45:03,701 --> 00:45:06,203
- was like,
- "That took too long."
- 990
- 00:45:06,204 --> 00:45:11,041
- It used to take six weeks,
- 991
- 00:45:11,042 --> 00:45:13,168
- on a boat,
- 992
- 00:45:13,169 --> 00:45:16,296
- if you survived.
- 993
- 00:45:16,297 --> 00:45:17,965
- That's how long it
- took Columbus to get
- 994
- 00:45:17,966 --> 00:45:20,968
- from Spain to the western
- hemisphere, six weeks.
- 995
- 00:45:20,969 --> 00:45:22,928
- But you know, once Columbus
- got here he was like,
- 996
- 00:45:22,929 --> 00:45:26,807
- "I need a day.
- I am so boat-lagged.
- 997
- 00:45:26,808 --> 00:45:28,100
- "Give me a day and
- I'll get right down
- 998
- 00:45:28,101 --> 00:45:30,894
- to murdering
- and plundering."
- 999
- 00:45:30,895 --> 00:45:34,523
- "Jim don't bring up Columbus,
- you're too white."
- 1000
- 00:45:34,524 --> 00:45:36,692
- But Columbus, that's part
- of our history right?
- 1001
- 00:45:36,693 --> 00:45:38,152
- Columbus ushered
- in all these people
- 1002
- 00:45:38,153 --> 00:45:40,070
- that came to the
- western hemisphere,
- 1003
- 00:45:40,071 --> 00:45:41,905
- and some of them
- did bad things.
- 1004
- 00:45:41,906 --> 00:45:44,491
- But humans have done bad
- things throughout the world.
- 1005
- 00:45:44,492 --> 00:45:47,119
- Like in Australia the way
- some of the settlers
- 1006
- 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,079
- treated the aboriginals,
- it was not nice.
- 1007
- 00:45:49,080 --> 00:45:51,206
- It was not a g'day.
- 1008
- 00:45:51,207 --> 00:45:53,208
- (audience laughs)
- 1009
- 00:45:53,209 --> 00:45:56,086
- In fact it was a series
- of bad days or bidet's.
- 1010
- 00:45:56,087 --> 00:45:58,088
- (audience laughs)
- 1011
- 00:45:58,089 --> 00:46:00,757
- In New Zealand,
- the settlers shared
- 1012
- 00:46:00,758 --> 00:46:02,843
- the land with the native
- people, the Maori people,
- 1013
- 00:46:02,844 --> 00:46:05,053
- a very noble
- warrior-like people,
- 1014
- 00:46:05,054 --> 00:46:07,097
- but the Maori weren't even the
- first people in New Zealand.
- 1015
- 00:46:07,098 --> 00:46:09,349
- The first people in New
- Zealand were the Moriori
- 1016
- 00:46:09,350 --> 00:46:13,187
- and then the Maori
- came and ate them.
- 1017
- 00:46:13,188 --> 00:46:15,772
- Not even makin' that up.
- 1018
- 00:46:15,773 --> 00:46:17,566
- That's the most
- intimidating thing
- 1019
- 00:46:17,567 --> 00:46:20,027
- you could do to
- your enemy, right?
- 1020
- 00:46:20,028 --> 00:46:21,612
- Like, "Oh, you're
- gonna kill me?"
- 1021
- 00:46:21,613 --> 00:46:23,864
- "Yeah, and then I'm gonna
- grab some mayonnaise."
- 1022
- 00:46:23,865 --> 00:46:26,033
- (audience laughs)
- 1023
- 00:46:26,034 --> 00:46:28,827
- "What are you gonna d-- Oh!"
- 1024
- 00:46:28,828 --> 00:46:32,164
- Could you imagine those initial
- English settlers in New Zealand?
- 1025
- 00:46:32,165 --> 00:46:34,541
- 'Cause the British
- had conquered the world.
- 1026
- 00:46:34,542 --> 00:46:35,959
- They had colonies
- on every continent
- 1027
- 00:46:35,960 --> 00:46:37,586
- so by the time they
- got to New Zealand
- 1028
- 00:46:37,587 --> 00:46:39,046
- they were like,
- "We've done this before.
- 1029
- 00:46:39,047 --> 00:46:41,006
- Let's meet with the
- locals and take over."
- 1030
- 00:46:41,007 --> 00:46:42,966
- So they met with the Maori
- and they're like,
- 1031
- 00:46:42,967 --> 00:46:44,885
- "So what happened to
- these Moriori people,
- did you kill them?"
- 1032
- 00:46:44,886 --> 00:46:47,012
- And they're like,
- "Yeah, and then we ate them."
- 1033
- 00:46:47,013 --> 00:46:48,805
- The English were like,
- "We were thinkin'
- 1034
- 00:46:48,806 --> 00:46:51,934
- "we could share the islands.
- 1035
- 00:46:51,935 --> 00:46:54,686
- "You wanna share?
- You're not hungry now are you?
- 1036
- 00:46:54,687 --> 00:46:56,313
- "You know what?
- Get 'em some shepherds pie.
- 1037
- 00:46:56,314 --> 00:46:58,273
- Tell 'em it's made
- out of shepherds."
- 1038
- 00:46:58,274 --> 00:47:01,235
- (audience laughs)
- 1039
- 00:47:01,236 --> 00:47:04,488
- "Jim even makes
- colonialism about eating."
- 1040
- 00:47:04,489 --> 00:47:05,865
- (audience laughs)
- 1041
- 00:47:07,909 --> 00:47:09,535
- They were cannibals.
- By the way,
- 1042
- 00:47:09,536 --> 00:47:12,329
- at one time, all human
- civilizations were cannibal,
- 1043
- 00:47:12,330 --> 00:47:14,414
- which means back then it
- meant something different
- 1044
- 00:47:14,415 --> 00:47:17,417
- when someone said,
- "I'm craving Indian or Thai."
- 1045
- 00:47:17,418 --> 00:47:21,046
- (audience laughs)
- 1046
- 00:47:21,047 --> 00:47:26,635
- I can see how you
- wanna be offended,
- but there's no reason.
- 1047
- 00:47:26,636 --> 00:47:28,095
- When I was in Europe,
- I tried all
- 1048
- 00:47:28,096 --> 00:47:30,013
- the local specialties,
- you know?
- 1049
- 00:47:30,014 --> 00:47:31,848
- Norway, I tried
- reindeer meat.
- 1050
- 00:47:31,849 --> 00:47:34,476
- I was in a Norwegian
- butcher shop in January,
- 1051
- 00:47:34,477 --> 00:47:36,353
- and they had a sale
- on reindeer meat,
- 1052
- 00:47:36,354 --> 00:47:38,897
- and nothing says
- Christmas season is over,
- 1053
- 00:47:38,898 --> 00:47:41,817
- (audience laughs)
- 1054
- 00:47:41,818 --> 00:47:44,861
- quite like a sale
- on reindeer meat.
- 1055
- 00:47:44,862 --> 00:47:48,365
- It's gotta be a
- tough day for Santa.
- 1056
- 00:47:48,366 --> 00:47:50,784
- "I wanna thank all you reindeer
- who helped this Christmas.
- 1057
- 00:47:50,785 --> 00:47:54,621
- "Great job.
- Now when I call your name,
- 1058
- 00:47:54,622 --> 00:47:56,873
- come with me into
- the smokehouse."
- 1059
- 00:47:56,874 --> 00:47:59,710
- (audience laughs)
- 1060
- 00:47:59,711 --> 00:48:01,503
- France, I ate so much cheese.
- 1061
- 00:48:01,504 --> 00:48:03,630
- So much delicious
- French cheese,
- 1062
- 00:48:03,631 --> 00:48:06,383
- and I feel like I'm
- still digesting it.
- 1063
- 00:48:06,384 --> 00:48:10,345
- My delicate American body
- couldn't handle
- the French cheese.
- 1064
- 00:48:10,346 --> 00:48:12,431
- And it's not like
- I don't eat cheese.
- 1065
- 00:48:12,432 --> 00:48:15,809
- Most of you are looking at me
- like, "We think you eat cheese.
- 1066
- 00:48:15,810 --> 00:48:19,313
- We think you might
- only eat cheese."
- 1067
- 00:48:19,314 --> 00:48:22,065
- But the French, they eat
- cheese on a whole other level.
- 1068
- 00:48:22,066 --> 00:48:23,817
- In France,
- they make eating cheese
- 1069
- 00:48:23,818 --> 00:48:25,652
- an official course
- of the meal.
- 1070
- 00:48:25,653 --> 00:48:27,362
- So you'll eat an appetizer,
- 1071
- 00:48:27,363 --> 00:48:29,489
- then you'll eat an entree,
- then for no reason at all
- 1072
- 00:48:29,490 --> 00:48:32,784
- you eat a bunch of
- chunks of cheese,
- 1073
- 00:48:32,785 --> 00:48:34,036
- then you eat dessert.
- 1074
- 00:48:34,037 --> 00:48:37,080
- After that,
- you go to the hospital.
- 1075
- 00:48:37,081 --> 00:48:40,000
- And of course, I've eaten
- chunks of cheese before,
- 1076
- 00:48:40,001 --> 00:48:42,419
- just not in public.
- 1077
- 00:48:42,420 --> 00:48:45,213
- Or with pants on.
- 1078
- 00:48:45,214 --> 00:48:47,007
- Eating chunks of cheese,
- 1079
- 00:48:47,008 --> 00:48:49,301
- that's something I'm
- usually caught doing.
- 1080
- 00:48:49,302 --> 00:48:50,927
- My wife's like, "What
- the hell are you doin'?"
- 1081
- 00:48:50,928 --> 00:48:54,097
- "Nothing honey!"
- 1082
- 00:48:54,098 --> 00:48:56,892
- I remember the first time
- I had the cheese course,
- 1083
- 00:48:56,893 --> 00:48:58,977
- I'd eaten an appetizer,
- I'd eaten my entree
- 1084
- 00:48:58,978 --> 00:49:00,520
- and I started eating
- my cheese course,
- 1085
- 00:49:00,521 --> 00:49:04,524
- and I heard my heart
- say, "Are you mad at me?
- 1086
- 00:49:04,525 --> 00:49:07,110
- Did I do something
- to anger you?"
- 1087
- 00:49:07,111 --> 00:49:08,820
- My brain took over.
- "It's all right,
- it's all right.
- 1088
- 00:49:08,821 --> 00:49:11,156
- "There's gonna be
- some sweating.
- 1089
- 00:49:11,157 --> 00:49:13,617
- "Bowels, you can take
- a couple weeks off.
- 1090
- 00:49:13,618 --> 00:49:15,285
- Appendix, get ready to blow."
- 1091
- 00:49:15,286 --> 00:49:16,745
- (audience laughs)
- 1092
- 00:49:16,746 --> 00:49:19,247
- Tried so many delicious
- French cheeses,
- 1093
- 00:49:19,248 --> 00:49:21,541
- and I couldn't tell you
- the name of one of them.
- 1094
- 00:49:21,542 --> 00:49:23,293
- And they would
- tell me the names.
- 1095
- 00:49:23,294 --> 00:49:25,837
- They're like, "This is
- (imitating French).
- 1096
- 00:49:25,838 --> 00:49:28,340
- From the
- (imitating French) region."
- 1097
- 00:49:28,341 --> 00:49:31,510
- And I'd be like,
- "So not cheddar?
- 1098
- 00:49:31,511 --> 00:49:32,928
- "'Cause I tried cheddar.
- 1099
- 00:49:32,929 --> 00:49:35,806
- "You guys get cheddar
- over here yet?
- 1100
- 00:49:35,807 --> 00:49:38,600
- I like me some cheddar."
- 1101
- 00:49:38,601 --> 00:49:41,395
- Some of the French cheeses
- I tried were goat cheese,
- 1102
- 00:49:41,396 --> 00:49:44,606
- or as the goats
- call it, cheese.
- 1103
- 00:49:44,607 --> 00:49:48,485
- They're not caught up
- in your cow cheese bias.
- 1104
- 00:49:48,486 --> 00:49:51,780
- You know, when I see cheese
- I don't even see an animal.
- 1105
- 00:49:51,781 --> 00:49:54,741
- I just see something
- my body can't process.
- 1106
- 00:49:54,742 --> 00:49:58,245
- (audience laughs)
- 1107
- 00:49:58,246 --> 00:50:00,956
- I like goat cheese. I'd never
- looked at a goat and thought,
- 1108
- 00:50:00,957 --> 00:50:02,833
- "I bet that would
- make good cheese."
- 1109
- 00:50:02,834 --> 00:50:04,710
- (audience laughs)
- 1110
- 00:50:04,711 --> 00:50:06,461
- How do we even get to
- the point of goat cheese?
- 1111
- 00:50:06,462 --> 00:50:08,755
- Was someone like,
- "This cow cheese is good,
- 1112
- 00:50:08,756 --> 00:50:11,758
- but see that dog that
- looks like it smokes meth?"
- 1113
- 00:50:11,759 --> 00:50:16,681
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1114
- 00:50:18,516 --> 00:50:20,892
- "Can someone try and milk it?
- 1115
- 00:50:20,893 --> 00:50:21,977
- "I got a hunch it
- would make cheese
- 1116
- 00:50:21,978 --> 00:50:24,229
- that would great with beets."
- 1117
- 00:50:24,230 --> 00:50:26,565
- (audience laughs)
- 1118
- 00:50:26,566 --> 00:50:29,192
- Those Europeans, they have
- a different approach to dairy.
- 1119
- 00:50:29,193 --> 00:50:30,736
- When they make a
- sandwich in Europe
- 1120
- 00:50:30,737 --> 00:50:32,362
- they put butter
- on their bread,
- 1121
- 00:50:32,363 --> 00:50:34,239
- they put butter on the bread,
- and then mayonnaise.
- 1122
- 00:50:34,240 --> 00:50:36,032
- Ugh.
- 1123
- 00:50:36,033 --> 00:50:39,077
- That's like putting on
- contacts and glasses.
- 1124
- 00:50:39,078 --> 00:50:41,288
- (audience laughs)
- 1125
- 00:50:41,289 --> 00:50:42,622
- Butter on the bread
- of a sandwich?
- 1126
- 00:50:42,623 --> 00:50:44,291
- That actually sounds
- like something Americans
- 1127
- 00:50:44,292 --> 00:50:47,544
- would do that Europeans
- would criticize us for.
- 1128
- 00:50:47,545 --> 00:50:50,255
- "Those American pigs,
- when they make a sandwich,
- 1129
- 00:50:50,256 --> 00:50:52,507
- "they put butter on the bread.
- 1130
- 00:50:52,508 --> 00:50:55,302
- No wonder they fat pig."
- 1131
- 00:50:55,303 --> 00:50:57,971
- That's a good impression
- of absolutely every European.
- 1132
- 00:50:57,972 --> 00:51:02,058
- (audience laughs)
- 1133
- 00:51:02,059 --> 00:51:03,435
- I did love doing
- shows over there.
- 1134
- 00:51:03,436 --> 00:51:05,479
- You never knew what
- was gonna work.
- 1135
- 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:06,980
- Sometimes there's
- a language barrier.
- 1136
- 00:51:06,981 --> 00:51:08,774
- There's different references.
- 1137
- 00:51:08,775 --> 00:51:10,233
- There's famous people
- in other countries
- 1138
- 00:51:10,234 --> 00:51:11,651
- we've never heard of.
- 1139
- 00:51:11,652 --> 00:51:13,653
- I was doing this show
- in Ireland before.
- 1140
- 00:51:13,654 --> 00:51:15,280
- I was doing the sound check
- before the show,
- 1141
- 00:51:15,281 --> 00:51:16,573
- and the sound guy was like,
- 1142
- 00:51:16,574 --> 00:51:18,909
- "Do you have any
- special requests?"
- 1143
- 00:51:18,910 --> 00:51:20,994
- And I jokingly said, "Well,
- I'll probably close my show
- 1144
- 00:51:20,995 --> 00:51:23,163
- by singing Raglan Road,"
- 1145
- 00:51:23,164 --> 00:51:24,498
- which is a famous
- Irish folk song
- 1146
- 00:51:24,499 --> 00:51:26,583
- based on a famous Irish poem
- 1147
- 00:51:26,584 --> 00:51:30,378
- and the sound guy was like,
- "Ooh, I don't recommend that."
- 1148
- 00:51:30,379 --> 00:51:32,839
- And I was like,
- "Well, I was kidding but why?"
- 1149
- 00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,258
- And he goes, "Well recently
- Billy Joelle did that."
- 1150
- 00:51:35,259 --> 00:51:37,511
- And I was like,
- "Who's Billy Joelle?"
- 1151
- 00:51:37,512 --> 00:51:39,513
- (audience laughs)
- 1152
- 00:51:39,514 --> 00:51:42,933
- And he goes, "You don't
- know who Billy Joelle is?"
- 1153
- 00:51:42,934 --> 00:51:45,519
- I was like, "I'm from
- another country,
- 1154
- 00:51:45,520 --> 00:51:46,520
- "I don't know
- who's famous here.
- 1155
- 00:51:46,521 --> 00:51:47,979
- "What is it,
- Superman's dad?
- 1156
- 00:51:47,980 --> 00:51:50,023
- I don't know."
- 1157
- 00:51:50,024 --> 00:51:53,235
- He goes, "Billy Joelle
- is from America.
- 1158
- 00:51:53,236 --> 00:51:55,320
- And I was like,
- "Oh my gosh, there's
- an American who's famous
- 1159
- 00:51:55,321 --> 00:51:59,032
- in Ireland that
- I've never heard of."
- 1160
- 00:51:59,033 --> 00:52:03,537
- He goes, "Billy Joelle,
- Piano Man. Uptown Girl."
- 1161
- 00:52:03,538 --> 00:52:05,580
- I was like,
- "Oh, you mean Billy Joel."
- 1162
- 00:52:05,581 --> 00:52:07,499
- (audience laughs)
- 1163
- 00:52:07,500 --> 00:52:10,126
- He goes,
- "No, it's Billy Joelle."
- 1164
- 00:52:10,127 --> 00:52:13,088
- For a second I thought,
- "Maybe he's right."
- 1165
- 00:52:13,089 --> 00:52:15,341
- (audience laughs)
- 1166
- 00:52:17,009 --> 00:52:19,511
- This wouldn't be the
- first time I discovered
- 1167
- 00:52:19,512 --> 00:52:23,598
- I mispronounced someone's
- name for my entire life.
- 1168
- 00:52:23,599 --> 00:52:25,392
- In my mind I started
- going through
- 1169
- 00:52:25,393 --> 00:52:27,143
- every conversation
- I had on Billy Joel.
- 1170
- 00:52:27,144 --> 00:52:30,021
- I'm like, "Did anybody
- else say Billy Joelle?
- 1171
- 00:52:30,022 --> 00:52:34,317
- When I said Billy Joel,
- did anyone look at me strange?"
- 1172
- 00:52:34,318 --> 00:52:36,528
- Then I remember, you know
- who pronounces it Billy Joel?
- 1173
- 00:52:36,529 --> 00:52:38,822
- Billy Joel.
- 1174
- 00:52:38,823 --> 00:52:41,199
- And at that point
- the opening act had come in,
- 1175
- 00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,076
- and he was also from Ireland,
- and I said,
- 1176
- 00:52:43,077 --> 00:52:45,161
- "Hey, this sound guys
- calls Billy Joel Billy Joelle.
- 1177
- 00:52:45,162 --> 00:52:49,082
- And the Irish comic
- goes, "It is Billy Joelle."
- 1178
- 00:52:49,083 --> 00:52:52,502
- I was like, "Is everyone
- crazy in this country?
- 1179
- 00:52:52,503 --> 00:52:54,629
- What, there's no one
- in Ireland named Joel?"
- 1180
- 00:52:54,630 --> 00:52:57,799
- And he goes, "Yeah,
- we call them Joelle."
- 1181
- 00:52:57,800 --> 00:52:59,801
- I was like, "Well then,
- what would you call someone
- 1182
- 00:52:59,802 --> 00:53:01,595
- who's actually named Joelle?"
- 1183
- 00:53:01,596 --> 00:53:05,599
- He goes, "You mean
- like Billy Joelle?"
- 1184
- 00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:09,060
- Stop it.
- 1185
- 00:53:09,061 --> 00:53:10,395
- No.
- 1186
- 00:53:10,396 --> 00:53:12,022
- I loved Ireland.
- 1187
- 00:53:12,023 --> 00:53:13,356
- I spent two weeks there.
- 1188
- 00:53:13,357 --> 00:53:15,191
- One of the weeks,
- I was in Donegal,
- 1189
- 00:53:15,192 --> 00:53:17,903
- which is a county in
- the northwestern part of
- the Republic,
- 1190
- 00:53:17,904 --> 00:53:19,654
- and I had noticed something.
- 1191
- 00:53:19,655 --> 00:53:21,907
- Everyone in Donegal
- has a washer and dryer,
- 1192
- 00:53:21,908 --> 00:53:24,242
- but nobody uses their dryer.
- 1193
- 00:53:24,243 --> 00:53:26,536
- They're like,
- "That won't be necessary.
- 1194
- 00:53:26,537 --> 00:53:29,247
- We'll just
- hang that out to dry."
- 1195
- 00:53:29,248 --> 00:53:31,082
- And I was kinda skeptical,
- but I was staying with friends,
- 1196
- 00:53:31,083 --> 00:53:32,709
- and they offered
- to do my laundry,
- 1197
- 00:53:32,710 --> 00:53:34,169
- so they took my clothes
- and they washed it,
- 1198
- 00:53:34,170 --> 00:53:35,962
- and they hung it out to dry,
- 1199
- 00:53:35,963 --> 00:53:38,757
- and I was kind of impressed
- 'cause after only three days...
- 1200
- 00:53:38,758 --> 00:53:41,384
- (audience laughs)
- 1201
- 00:53:41,385 --> 00:53:43,011
- my clothes were still wet.
- 1202
- 00:53:43,012 --> 00:53:45,305
- (audience laughs)
- 1203
- 00:53:45,306 --> 00:53:46,640
- 'Cause what they've
- yet to realize
- 1204
- 00:53:46,641 --> 00:53:49,517
- is it rains every
- day in Donegal.
- 1205
- 00:53:49,518 --> 00:53:52,479
- It's like living in a shower.
- 1206
- 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,898
- But my friend, she was so
- proud of the line drying,
- 1207
- 00:53:54,899 --> 00:53:56,775
- she goes,
- "Isn't that just better?
- 1208
- 00:53:56,776 --> 00:53:59,069
- Doesn't that smell glorious?"
- 1209
- 00:53:59,070 --> 00:54:02,781
- Meanwhile I'm holding
- a wet tee shirt.
- 1210
- 00:54:02,782 --> 00:54:04,240
- "Yeah, this is great.
- 1211
- 00:54:04,241 --> 00:54:08,620
- I can just pretend
- I got off a log ride."
- 1212
- 00:54:08,621 --> 00:54:11,414
- "There's nothing better than
- waking up on a cold morning
- 1213
- 00:54:11,415 --> 00:54:14,125
- and putting on a wet
- Billy Joelle tee shirt."
- 1214
- 00:54:14,126 --> 00:54:16,169
- (audience laughs)
- 1215
- 00:54:16,170 --> 00:54:20,424
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1216
- 00:54:24,095 --> 00:54:25,720
- My kids were with
- me in Amsterdam.
- 1217
- 00:54:25,721 --> 00:54:27,347
- I brought my kids to
- the Anne Frank house.
- 1218
- 00:54:27,348 --> 00:54:29,307
- I told some friends that
- and they were like,
- 1219
- 00:54:29,308 --> 00:54:31,518
- "Aren't your kids
- a little young for
- the Anne Frank house?"
- 1220
- 00:54:31,519 --> 00:54:35,188
- And you know what I learned?
- They are. They're too young.
- 1221
- 00:54:35,189 --> 00:54:36,856
- But I wanted to
- bring them, you know?
- 1222
- 00:54:36,857 --> 00:54:38,733
- It's an important place
- I want them to learn.
- 1223
- 00:54:38,734 --> 00:54:40,819
- So I brought them.
- We were standing outside
- the Anne Frank house,
- 1224
- 00:54:40,820 --> 00:54:43,488
- and I said, "This is a
- special somber place.
- 1225
- 00:54:43,489 --> 00:54:46,157
- "This is where Anne Frank,
- her family and some friends
- 1226
- 00:54:46,158 --> 00:54:47,993
- "hid from the Nazis
- for two years,
- 1227
- 00:54:47,994 --> 00:54:49,536
- "and they couldn't
- speak during the day,
- 1228
- 00:54:49,537 --> 00:54:51,329
- "and Anne also
- wrote this diary.
- 1229
- 00:54:51,330 --> 00:54:52,455
- So let's be respectful."
- 1230
- 00:54:52,456 --> 00:54:53,957
- My six year old
- raises his hand
- 1231
- 00:54:53,958 --> 00:54:56,376
- and he goes, "Do they
- have video games here?"
- 1232
- 00:54:56,377 --> 00:54:57,877
- (audience laughs)
- 1233
- 00:54:57,878 --> 00:55:01,423
- And I said, "I'm gonna
- need you to be quiet,
- 1234
- 00:55:01,424 --> 00:55:03,383
- for the rest of your life."
- 1235
- 00:55:03,384 --> 00:55:05,176
- (audience laughs)
- 1236
- 00:55:05,177 --> 00:55:07,178
- I bought tickets online
- to the Anne Frank house.
- 1237
- 00:55:07,179 --> 00:55:08,972
- I Googled it.
- 1238
- 00:55:08,973 --> 00:55:11,016
- The Anne Frank house
- has a Google rating
- 1239
- 00:55:11,017 --> 00:55:14,853
- of 4.4 out of five stars.
- 1240
- 00:55:14,854 --> 00:55:19,482
- Who's giving the Anne
- Frank house a bad review?
- 1241
- 00:55:19,483 --> 00:55:21,776
- (audience laughs)
- 1242
- 00:55:21,777 --> 00:55:24,529
- It's like, "Yeah,
- it wasn't that fun.
- 1243
- 00:55:24,530 --> 00:55:27,449
- It was kind of crowded,
- and there were no video games."
- 1244
- 00:55:27,450 --> 00:55:29,409
- (audience laughs)
- 1245
- 00:55:29,410 --> 00:55:32,704
- Why do we feel the need
- to review everything?
- 1246
- 00:55:32,705 --> 00:55:36,541
- Nobody's going to Anne Frank's
- house looking for hot dogs.
- 1247
- 00:55:36,542 --> 00:55:41,129
- "Well, I misread it. I thought
- it was Anne's Frank house.
- 1248
- 00:55:41,130 --> 00:55:44,424
- I was gettin' ready to
- have me an Amsterdam dog."
- 1249
- 00:55:44,425 --> 00:55:46,176
- (audience laughs)
- 1250
- 00:55:46,177 --> 00:55:47,719
- When I travel with my kids,
- 1251
- 00:55:47,720 --> 00:55:50,305
- we always try to do one
- educational thing a day.
- 1252
- 00:55:50,306 --> 00:55:53,475
- It usually involves going to
- a museum, and museums are great,
- 1253
- 00:55:53,476 --> 00:55:55,810
- they're important, but
- they're also exhausting, right?
- 1254
- 00:55:55,811 --> 00:55:58,104
- Acting like you're
- interested in that crap.
- 1255
- 00:55:58,105 --> 00:56:00,398
- (audience laughs)
- 1256
- 00:56:00,399 --> 00:56:03,735
- There's so much pressure
- to be impressed in a museum.
- 1257
- 00:56:03,736 --> 00:56:05,653
- It's like "Ooh,
- look at that kids.
- 1258
- 00:56:05,654 --> 00:56:08,114
- "Wow, that's a, well
- that's a water fountain.
- 1259
- 00:56:08,115 --> 00:56:10,784
- What do we got over here?"
- 1260
- 00:56:10,785 --> 00:56:12,869
- And I've been to all
- kinds of museums.
- 1261
- 00:56:12,870 --> 00:56:14,871
- I've been to
- children's museums,
- 1262
- 00:56:14,872 --> 00:56:17,415
- which are really just
- museums of diseases
- 1263
- 00:56:17,416 --> 00:56:20,543
- your kids can get from
- other peoples kids.
- 1264
- 00:56:20,544 --> 00:56:22,087
- It's like, "Why don't
- you go over there
- 1265
- 00:56:22,088 --> 00:56:25,215
- and see if we get
- the chicken pox."
- 1266
- 00:56:25,216 --> 00:56:28,468
- In Stockholm, I brought
- my kids to a ship museum,
- 1267
- 00:56:28,469 --> 00:56:32,597
- the Vasa Museum.
- It was a ship museum,
- but it only had one ship,
- 1268
- 00:56:32,598 --> 00:56:35,683
- so it felt more
- like a ship garage.
- 1269
- 00:56:35,684 --> 00:56:37,936
- But that one ship,
- the Vasa ship,
- 1270
- 00:56:37,937 --> 00:56:42,190
- sunk on its maiden voyage
- in Stockholm's harbor
- in the 1700's,
- 1271
- 00:56:42,191 --> 00:56:45,360
- which is not good,
- but that's the largest
- attraction in Sweden.
- 1272
- 00:56:45,361 --> 00:56:47,278
- Most countries,
- their big attraction
- 1273
- 00:56:47,279 --> 00:56:49,948
- is a design marvel like
- the Sydney Opera House
- 1274
- 00:56:49,949 --> 00:56:52,200
- or the Eiffel Tower,
- but Sweden was like,
- 1275
- 00:56:52,201 --> 00:56:54,452
- "Here's our boat
- that didn't float."
- 1276
- 00:56:54,453 --> 00:56:57,288
- (audience laughs)
- 1277
- 00:56:57,289 --> 00:56:59,290
- "This is why
- we make furniture."
- 1278
- 00:56:59,291 --> 00:57:02,794
- (audience laughs)
- 1279
- 00:57:02,795 --> 00:57:04,963
- "That, ironically, floats."
- 1280
- 00:57:04,964 --> 00:57:07,632
- (audience laughs)
- 1281
- 00:57:07,633 --> 00:57:09,884
- Often the museums
- are art museums.
- 1282
- 00:57:09,885 --> 00:57:12,053
- Those are the most
- intimidating, right?
- 1283
- 00:57:12,054 --> 00:57:15,181
- 'Cause in art museums, they
- tell us what is the good art.
- 1284
- 00:57:15,182 --> 00:57:17,600
- We have no say in the matter.
- "That's good art."
- 1285
- 00:57:17,601 --> 00:57:22,438
- "Oh, okay.
- I'll take your word for it."
- 1286
- 00:57:22,439 --> 00:57:24,357
- They treat everyone like
- a child in an art museum.
- 1287
- 00:57:24,358 --> 00:57:25,441
- They're like,
- "Don't touch anything.
- 1288
- 00:57:25,442 --> 00:57:26,818
- Nobody touch anything."
- 1289
- 00:57:26,819 --> 00:57:29,612
- I wasn't gonna.
- 1290
- 00:57:29,613 --> 00:57:30,780
- Now I kinda want to.
- 1291
- 00:57:30,781 --> 00:57:32,740
- (audience laughs)
- 1292
- 00:57:32,741 --> 00:57:34,033
- Everyone's speaking
- in hushed tones.
- 1293
- 00:57:34,034 --> 00:57:35,410
- "Be respectful.
- 1294
- 00:57:35,411 --> 00:57:38,663
- "We're about to look at
- the work of a mad man.
- 1295
- 00:57:38,664 --> 00:57:42,083
- He painted this after he
- chopped off his own ear."
- 1296
- 00:57:42,084 --> 00:57:45,503
- "Why are we whispering?
- Van Gogh's dead.
- 1297
- 00:57:45,504 --> 00:57:48,006
- Even if he was alive,
- he couldn't hear us."
- 1298
- 00:57:48,007 --> 00:57:50,383
- (audience laughs)
- 1299
- 00:57:50,384 --> 00:57:52,135
- Recently after a show,
- someone came up to me.
- 1300
- 00:57:52,136 --> 00:57:54,095
- They're like you know,
- it's not pronounced Van Gogh,
- 1301
- 00:57:54,096 --> 00:57:56,139
- it's pronounced
- Billy Joelle.
- 1302
- 00:57:56,140 --> 00:57:58,349
- (audience laughs)
- 1303
- 00:57:58,350 --> 00:58:02,646
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1304
- 00:58:05,107 --> 00:58:07,734
- I do find it hard
- to leave art museums,
- 1305
- 00:58:07,735 --> 00:58:10,278
- mainly 'cause I
- can't find the exit.
- 1306
- 00:58:10,279 --> 00:58:12,030
- Great, another room filled
- 1307
- 00:58:12,031 --> 00:58:14,908
- with paintings of
- ugly Dutch people.
- 1308
- 00:58:14,909 --> 00:58:19,621
- In the 1600's they painted
- every ugly Dutch person.
- 1309
- 00:58:19,622 --> 00:58:21,873
- "Hey, you're hard to look at.
- Can I do your portrait?"
- 1310
- 00:58:21,874 --> 00:58:25,251
- (audience laughs)
- 1311
- 00:58:25,252 --> 00:58:26,961
- "Makin' that hay
- look good aren't ya?"
- 1312
- 00:58:26,962 --> 00:58:28,880
- (audience laughs)
- 1313
- 00:58:28,881 --> 00:58:32,258
- Fine art, sometimes I feel
- like it's wasted on me.
- 1314
- 00:58:32,259 --> 00:58:33,384
- You know like the Mona Lisa?
- 1315
- 00:58:33,385 --> 00:58:35,053
- We've all seen the Mona Lisa.
- 1316
- 00:58:35,054 --> 00:58:37,805
- The most beautiful
- smile in the world.
- 1317
- 00:58:37,806 --> 00:58:39,390
- The most beautiful smile.
- 1318
- 00:58:39,391 --> 00:58:41,309
- I'm like, "Have you
- seen Halle Berry?"
- 1319
- 00:58:41,310 --> 00:58:42,894
- (audience laughs)
- 1320
- 00:58:42,895 --> 00:58:44,395
- Heck, have you
- seen Chuck Berry?
- 1321
- 00:58:44,396 --> 00:58:45,688
- (audience laughs)
- 1322
- 00:58:45,689 --> 00:58:48,399
- I don't even know
- if Mona Lisa's smiling.
- 1323
- 00:58:48,400 --> 00:58:50,735
- To me it looks like she's,
- just came from the dentist.
- 1324
- 00:58:50,736 --> 00:58:51,736
- She's like, "Mmm."
- 1325
- 00:58:51,737 --> 00:58:53,905
- (audience laughs)
- 1326
- 00:58:53,906 --> 00:58:57,033
- "Novocain's wearin' off."
- 1327
- 00:58:57,034 --> 00:58:59,619
- Art museums will
- occasionally ask
- 1328
- 00:58:59,620 --> 00:59:01,246
- if you'd like to
- become a member.
- 1329
- 00:59:01,247 --> 00:59:02,872
- "Would you like to
- become a member?"
- 1330
- 00:59:02,873 --> 00:59:07,293
- "Uh, how, how often would
- I have to come here?"
- 1331
- 00:59:07,294 --> 00:59:10,004
- (audience laughs)
- 1332
- 00:59:10,005 --> 00:59:15,593
- I think I can only pretend
- to be interested once.
- 1333
- 00:59:15,594 --> 00:59:18,054
- There's always people
- sketching in an art museum.
- 1334
- 00:59:18,055 --> 00:59:19,347
- I always point them
- out to security.
- 1335
- 00:59:19,348 --> 00:59:21,641
- I'm like, "Copying."
- 1336
- 00:59:21,642 --> 00:59:26,479
- Got a forgery
- happening mid forge.
- 1337
- 00:59:26,480 --> 00:59:30,358
- Those art museum security guards
- you know, they're important.
- 1338
- 00:59:30,359 --> 00:59:33,278
- Some of that art is priceless.
- Some of it's on loan.
- 1339
- 00:59:33,279 --> 00:59:34,279
- You see that next to a painting.
- 1340
- 00:59:34,280 --> 00:59:37,532
- On loan from a rich person.
- 1341
- 00:59:37,533 --> 00:59:41,536
- "The poor people
- may look at my art.
- 1342
- 00:59:41,537 --> 00:59:44,747
- But don't let them get their
- peasant fingers on it."
- 1343
- 00:59:44,748 --> 00:59:47,542
- (audience laughs)
- 1344
- 00:59:47,543 --> 00:59:49,377
- Some of that art is priceless.
- 1345
- 00:59:49,378 --> 00:59:54,173
- Recently, a Da Vinci painting
- sold for $450 million.
- 1346
- 00:59:54,174 --> 00:59:58,261
- 400-- What room do you
- put that in your house?
- 1347
- 00:59:58,262 --> 01:00:00,888
- "I put that in the game room."
- 1348
- 01:00:00,889 --> 01:00:03,016
- It was a Da Vinci
- painting, Salvator Mundi.
- 1349
- 01:00:03,017 --> 01:00:04,976
- It was a painting of Jesus,
- 1350
- 01:00:04,977 --> 01:00:07,979
- but it's not like Da Vinci even
- knew what Jesus looked like.
- 1351
- 01:00:07,980 --> 01:00:11,024
- He painted it 1500 years
- after Jesus walked the earth.
- 1352
- 01:00:11,025 --> 01:00:12,817
- So he was just guessing.
- He's like, "I don't know.
- 1353
- 01:00:12,818 --> 01:00:14,736
- He's got brown eyes probably?
- I don't know."
- 1354
- 01:00:14,737 --> 01:00:16,029
- (audience laughs)
- 1355
- 01:00:16,030 --> 01:00:20,158
- He probably just
- painted someone he knew.
- 1356
- 01:00:20,159 --> 01:00:21,868
- You know back in
- the day they're like,
- 1357
- 01:00:21,869 --> 01:00:24,078
- people are like, "What,
- is that your nephew Eddie?"
- 1358
- 01:00:24,079 --> 01:00:26,748
- Da Vinci's like,
- "No, that's Jesus.
- 1359
- 01:00:26,749 --> 01:00:28,416
- (audience laughs)
- 1360
- 01:00:28,417 --> 01:00:30,918
- The savior of the world."
- 1361
- 01:00:30,919 --> 01:00:32,545
- (audience laughs)
- 1362
- 01:00:32,546 --> 01:00:36,966
- "Eddie is wearing
- the same outfit as him."
- 1363
- 01:00:36,967 --> 01:00:38,509
- "That's a coincidence."
- 1364
- 01:00:38,510 --> 01:00:41,263
- (audience laughs)
- 1365
- 01:00:42,723 --> 01:00:44,807
- So many paintings
- of Jesus right?
- 1366
- 01:00:44,808 --> 01:00:48,186
- But there's really two
- types of paintings of Jesus.
- 1367
- 01:00:48,187 --> 01:00:51,898
- There's Jesus as an adult,
- or Jesus as a baby.
- 1368
- 01:00:51,899 --> 01:00:54,817
- There's no teenage Jesus.
- 1369
- 01:00:54,818 --> 01:00:58,988
- There's no acne Jesus,
- 1370
- 01:00:58,989 --> 01:01:01,115
- with the beginning
- of a mustache.
- 1371
- 01:01:01,116 --> 01:01:02,950
- (audience laughs)
- 1372
- 01:01:02,951 --> 01:01:06,329
- "Jim, you're going
- to Hell for that."
- 1373
- 01:01:06,330 --> 01:01:10,166
- And you sound
- so dumb right now.
- 1374
- 01:01:10,167 --> 01:01:12,710
- That is my worst fear is to
- come across like an idiot,
- 1375
- 01:01:12,711 --> 01:01:14,504
- and you guys are like,
- "You should be terrified then."
- 1376
- 01:01:14,505 --> 01:01:16,422
- (audience laughs)
- 1377
- 01:01:16,423 --> 01:01:18,716
- I mostly get nervous
- when I'm talking to
- really smart people.
- 1378
- 01:01:18,717 --> 01:01:20,301
- You ever been
- talking to someone,
- 1379
- 01:01:20,302 --> 01:01:24,180
- and you hear yourself
- not make sense?
- 1380
- 01:01:24,181 --> 01:01:27,850
- But instead of stopping,
- you just keep talkin'?
- 1381
- 01:01:27,851 --> 01:01:32,021
- "You know what? I'll pull it
- together at the end.
- 1382
- 01:01:32,022 --> 01:01:35,650
- Oops, that might
- not have been a word."
- 1383
- 01:01:35,651 --> 01:01:38,403
- That's usually the moment
- where I make eye contact
- with my wife.
- 1384
- 01:01:38,404 --> 01:01:40,780
- She's like, "What the hell
- are you doing?"
- 1385
- 01:01:40,781 --> 01:01:44,242
- "I'm trying to
- make you look good."
- 1386
- 01:01:44,243 --> 01:01:46,285
- Here's how dumb I am.
- 1387
- 01:01:46,286 --> 01:01:48,413
- When someone's criticized
- on social media
- 1388
- 01:01:48,414 --> 01:01:51,416
- for being stupid,
- I get nervous.
- 1389
- 01:01:51,417 --> 01:01:55,086
- Like, "Oh, they're comin'
- for all us dummies.
- 1390
- 01:01:55,087 --> 01:01:59,298
- Probably gonna start with a
- spellin' test or somethin'."
- 1391
- 01:01:59,299 --> 01:02:01,676
- (Jim chuckles)
- 1392
- 01:02:01,677 --> 01:02:04,429
- The kids aren't with me,
- but if we're really quiet
- 1393
- 01:02:04,430 --> 01:02:06,264
- we can hear them screaming
- in New York City.
- 1394
- 01:02:06,265 --> 01:02:07,932
- (audience laughs)
- 1395
- 01:02:07,933 --> 01:02:09,767
- When I travel
- without my children,
- 1396
- 01:02:09,768 --> 01:02:11,310
- in between those
- moments of guilt,
- 1397
- 01:02:11,311 --> 01:02:13,688
- are just hours of happiness.
- 1398
- 01:02:13,689 --> 01:02:15,523
- (audience laughs)
- 1399
- 01:02:15,524 --> 01:02:18,652
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1400
- 01:02:20,821 --> 01:02:22,780
- I mean, I love my kids.
- 1401
- 01:02:22,781 --> 01:02:24,907
- I just love them more
- when I'm not with them.
- 1402
- 01:02:24,908 --> 01:02:26,993
- (audience laughs)
- 1403
- 01:02:26,994 --> 01:02:29,370
- And when I travel without
- my kids, I do nothing.
- 1404
- 01:02:29,371 --> 01:02:31,122
- I'm so productive when
- I travel with them.
- 1405
- 01:02:31,123 --> 01:02:33,166
- When they're not here,
- I do nothing,
- 1406
- 01:02:33,167 --> 01:02:35,084
- and then I'll do nothing
- all day and then
- 1407
- 01:02:35,085 --> 01:02:37,003
- I'll call home
- and my saintly wife
- 1408
- 01:02:37,004 --> 01:02:38,796
- will just pick up the phone,
- 1409
- 01:02:38,797 --> 01:02:41,132
- and there'll be chaos
- in the background.
- 1410
- 01:02:41,133 --> 01:02:42,508
- And she'll be like,
- "What'd you do today?"
- 1411
- 01:02:42,509 --> 01:02:44,552
- And I'll be like,
- "What'd I do?
- 1412
- 01:02:44,553 --> 01:02:47,805
- "Well, I got up.
- 1413
- 01:02:47,806 --> 01:02:50,141
- Did that a couple times."
- 1414
- 01:02:50,142 --> 01:02:51,809
- (audience laughs)
- 1415
- 01:02:51,810 --> 01:02:55,396
- "Enough about me.
- What about you?"
- 1416
- 01:02:55,397 --> 01:02:57,064
- And she'll put my
- kids on the phone.
- 1417
- 01:02:57,065 --> 01:02:58,357
- They'll be like,
- "Third grade's hard,"
- 1418
- 01:02:58,358 --> 01:03:01,652
- and I'll be like,
- "It gets so much worse."
- 1419
- 01:03:01,653 --> 01:03:03,279
- School is hard you know?
- 1420
- 01:03:03,280 --> 01:03:05,072
- I try and be supportive
- in the morning.
- 1421
- 01:03:05,073 --> 01:03:07,283
- I'll be like, "Look,
- I know you don't wanna go,
- 1422
- 01:03:07,284 --> 01:03:11,871
- "but just remember, I never
- have to go to school again.
- 1423
- 01:03:11,872 --> 01:03:14,081
- Anyway, off you go.
- I'm gonna nap."
- 1424
- 01:03:14,082 --> 01:03:15,584
- (audience laughs)
- 1425
- 01:03:18,253 --> 01:03:19,754
- I don't know.
- I wouldn't wanna be a kid.
- 1426
- 01:03:19,755 --> 01:03:20,963
- I like the age I am.
- 1427
- 01:03:20,964 --> 01:03:22,215
- I wouldn't
- wanna be a teenager.
- 1428
- 01:03:22,216 --> 01:03:23,508
- I wouldn't wanna be
- in my 20's.
- 1429
- 01:03:23,509 --> 01:03:25,510
- I like being 30 years old.
- 1430
- 01:03:25,511 --> 01:03:29,639
- (audience laughs)
- 1431
- 01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,767
- I try and schedule tours
- around school breaks, you know?
- 1432
- 01:03:32,768 --> 01:03:35,770
- Like at Christmas one year,
- I did a bunch of shows
- in Florida,
- 1433
- 01:03:35,771 --> 01:03:37,355
- and my wife
- and kids came down.
- 1434
- 01:03:37,356 --> 01:03:38,856
- My wife's family
- also came down
- 1435
- 01:03:38,857 --> 01:03:41,067
- 'cause they didn't want
- us to have a good time.
- 1436
- 01:03:41,068 --> 01:03:43,861
- (audience laughs)
- 1437
- 01:03:43,862 --> 01:03:46,489
- I'm kidding.
- I love my wife's family.
- 1438
- 01:03:46,490 --> 01:03:49,867
- Did that sound believable?
- 1439
- 01:03:49,868 --> 01:03:50,993
- I do love them.
- 1440
- 01:03:50,994 --> 01:03:52,453
- They're my in-laws.
- 1441
- 01:03:52,454 --> 01:03:54,413
- That's a strange term,
- in-laws.
- 1442
- 01:03:54,414 --> 01:03:58,209
- "Are you related?"
- "Uh, legally.
- 1443
- 01:03:58,210 --> 01:04:01,462
- In a court of law."
- 1444
- 01:04:01,463 --> 01:04:03,589
- In-law, it's like the
- opposite of being in love.
- 1445
- 01:04:03,590 --> 01:04:05,758
- We're in law.
- 1446
- 01:04:05,759 --> 01:04:08,553
- We law each other.
- 1447
- 01:04:08,554 --> 01:04:10,888
- Very much.
- 1448
- 01:04:10,889 --> 01:04:12,890
- In-laws are like
- family you're assigned.
- 1449
- 01:04:12,891 --> 01:04:14,392
- It's like, "You wanna spend
- your life with that person?
- 1450
- 01:04:14,393 --> 01:04:17,353
- You gotta take
- those 10 people."
- 1451
- 01:04:17,354 --> 01:04:20,147
- "All of them?"
- 1452
- 01:04:20,148 --> 01:04:24,360
- My only issue with my in-laws
- is there's too many of them.
- 1453
- 01:04:24,361 --> 01:04:25,945
- My wife is
- one of nine children,
- 1454
- 01:04:25,946 --> 01:04:28,823
- so every holiday all
- nine of the siblings
- 1455
- 01:04:28,824 --> 01:04:31,033
- and their individual
- families all
- 1456
- 01:04:31,034 --> 01:04:34,870
- get together and spend
- every moment together.
- 1457
- 01:04:34,871 --> 01:04:39,542
- Over Christmas, I went to
- a movie with 30 people.
- 1458
- 01:04:39,543 --> 01:04:42,336
- I didn't even know
- that was legal.
- 1459
- 01:04:42,337 --> 01:04:43,754
- We were walkin' around,
- 1460
- 01:04:43,755 --> 01:04:47,383
- people thought we
- were from a church.
- 1461
- 01:04:47,384 --> 01:04:51,304
- To put it in perspective Jesus
- only walked around with 12.
- 1462
- 01:04:51,305 --> 01:04:53,598
- (audience laughs)
- 1463
- 01:04:53,599 --> 01:04:56,058
- I learned very
- quickly I don't wanna
- 1464
- 01:04:56,059 --> 01:04:59,061
- do anything with 30 people.
- 1465
- 01:04:59,062 --> 01:05:01,147
- If I was on the Titanic
- and the last rescue boat
- 1466
- 01:05:01,148 --> 01:05:04,525
- was filled with 30 people,
- I'd be like, "You guys go ahead.
- 1467
- 01:05:04,526 --> 01:05:06,360
- "I don't want to be
- there when you try
- 1468
- 01:05:06,361 --> 01:05:07,778
- and decide
- where to eat lunch."
- 1469
- 01:05:07,779 --> 01:05:10,197
- (audience laughs)
- 1470
- 01:05:10,198 --> 01:05:12,533
- Oh, but it was more
- then 30 people,
- 1471
- 01:05:12,534 --> 01:05:15,745
- 'cause sometimes those
- 30 people will invite
- other people.
- 1472
- 01:05:15,746 --> 01:05:17,622
- So you'll have
- conversations and someone
- 1473
- 01:05:17,623 --> 01:05:20,374
- will be like, "I'm your
- wife's uncles best friend."
- 1474
- 01:05:20,375 --> 01:05:23,210
- Oh, there's a term for that.
- Stranger.
- 1475
- 01:05:23,211 --> 01:05:25,588
- (audience laughs)
- 1476
- 01:05:25,589 --> 01:05:27,048
- You're a total stranger.
- 1477
- 01:05:27,049 --> 01:05:30,551
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1478
- 01:05:30,552 --> 01:05:32,303
- I do love my wife's parents.
- 1479
- 01:05:32,304 --> 01:05:33,929
- Their names are
- Louise and Dominic
- 1480
- 01:05:33,930 --> 01:05:35,640
- so I call them Louise and Dom.
- 1481
- 01:05:35,641 --> 01:05:37,725
- My wife's siblings, some
- of them have gotten married
- 1482
- 01:05:37,726 --> 01:05:39,894
- and their spouses,
- some of their spouses
- 1483
- 01:05:39,895 --> 01:05:45,358
- call Louise and Dom
- Mom and Dad 'cause
- they're weirdos.
- 1484
- 01:05:45,359 --> 01:05:46,692
- No, I understand.
- 1485
- 01:05:46,693 --> 01:05:47,985
- Sometimes you
- marry into a family
- 1486
- 01:05:47,986 --> 01:05:49,695
- and become so close
- to the parents
- 1487
- 01:05:49,696 --> 01:05:52,573
- that you wanna call them
- Mom and Dad, but don't.
- 1488
- 01:05:52,574 --> 01:05:54,867
- (audience laughs)
- 1489
- 01:05:54,868 --> 01:05:59,080
- It's weird and confusing
- for the rest of us.
- 1490
- 01:05:59,081 --> 01:06:01,832
- Wait, that's his mom?
- 1491
- 01:06:01,833 --> 01:06:03,084
- He married his sister?
- 1492
- 01:06:03,085 --> 01:06:05,628
- (audience laughs)
- 1493
- 01:06:05,629 --> 01:06:07,797
- What state is he from?
- 1494
- 01:06:07,798 --> 01:06:09,800
- (audience laughs)
- 1495
- 01:06:12,094 --> 01:06:14,220
- This is, by the way
- this is all prosthetic.
- 1496
- 01:06:14,221 --> 01:06:16,138
- (audience laughs)
- 1497
- 01:06:16,139 --> 01:06:17,473
- After the show it comes off.
- 1498
- 01:06:17,474 --> 01:06:19,600
- I just air it out
- and it's like,
- 1499
- 01:06:19,601 --> 01:06:23,521
- I feel so free when I get
- it off, you know what I mean?
- 1500
- 01:06:23,522 --> 01:06:26,524
- It's getting harder and harder
- to motivate to exercise.
- 1501
- 01:06:26,525 --> 01:06:29,610
- In your 20's, you're like,
- "I wanna be with someone
- physically fit,
- 1502
- 01:06:29,611 --> 01:06:31,112
- so I'll be physically fit,"
- and in your 30's,
- 1503
- 01:06:31,113 --> 01:06:33,406
- you're like,
- "I wanna fight off aging,"
- 1504
- 01:06:33,407 --> 01:06:35,366
- and in your 40's
- you're like, "It's over."
- 1505
- 01:06:35,367 --> 01:06:37,868
- (audience laughs)
- 1506
- 01:06:37,869 --> 01:06:39,745
- And now I'm at the
- point where I look
- 1507
- 01:06:39,746 --> 01:06:43,874
- at morbidly obese people and
- I'm like, "They seem happy."
- 1508
- 01:06:43,875 --> 01:06:47,712
- That's one way to live a life.
- 1509
- 01:06:47,713 --> 01:06:50,339
- I used to exercise
- to lose weight.
- 1510
- 01:06:50,340 --> 01:06:55,136
- Now I exercise so I can
- continue to fit in cars.
- 1511
- 01:06:55,137 --> 01:06:57,471
- It's still a fitness goal.
- 1512
- 01:06:57,472 --> 01:07:00,433
- (audience laughs)
- 1513
- 01:07:00,434 --> 01:07:03,394
- I've been in better
- shape in my life.
- 1514
- 01:07:03,395 --> 01:07:05,146
- I go in and out.
- It's been awhile.
- 1515
- 01:07:05,147 --> 01:07:06,814
- Not last year but
- the year before
- 1516
- 01:07:06,815 --> 01:07:08,607
- my big accomplishment is
- 1517
- 01:07:08,608 --> 01:07:10,484
- I ran the
- New York City Marathon.
- 1518
- 01:07:10,485 --> 01:07:12,528
- - (audience applauds)
- - Thank you.
- 1519
- 01:07:12,529 --> 01:07:14,739
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- 1520
- 01:07:14,740 --> 01:07:18,075
- Half of you are,
- like, "No, you didn't."
- 1521
- 01:07:18,076 --> 01:07:20,494
- I did, you bastards,
- all right?
- 1522
- 01:07:20,495 --> 01:07:23,748
- I ran and completed.
- All right, fine, I didn't.
- 1523
- 01:07:23,749 --> 01:07:25,833
- (audience laughs)
- 1524
- 01:07:25,834 --> 01:07:28,419
- But I thought about it.
- 1525
- 01:07:28,420 --> 01:07:31,672
- Which I guess is technically
- different then running it.
- 1526
- 01:07:31,673 --> 01:07:33,549
- It turns out I couldn't run
- 1527
- 01:07:33,550 --> 01:07:37,678
- the New York City Marathon
- 'cause I didn't want to.
- 1528
- 01:07:37,679 --> 01:07:40,347
- Which is the main reason
- I don't do a lotta things.
- 1529
- 01:07:40,348 --> 01:07:42,433
- I just rarely admit it.
- 1530
- 01:07:42,434 --> 01:07:44,518
- It's like, "Hey, Jim,
- why didn't you come
- to my birthday party?"
- 1531
- 01:07:44,519 --> 01:07:47,438
- "I didn't want to."
- 1532
- 01:07:47,439 --> 01:07:49,940
- We never really reply
- to invitations that way.
- 1533
- 01:07:49,941 --> 01:07:53,861
- "Don't wanna go.
- 1534
- 01:07:53,862 --> 01:07:56,697
- Completely available,
- just not interested."
- 1535
- 01:07:56,698 --> 01:07:59,575
- (audience laughs)
- 1536
- 01:07:59,576 --> 01:08:02,203
- "Really wish I wasn't there,
- so I won't be."
- 1537
- 01:08:02,204 --> 01:08:04,413
- (audience laughs)
- 1538
- 01:08:04,414 --> 01:08:06,874
- I know people who have run
- the New York City Marathon.
- 1539
- 01:08:06,875 --> 01:08:08,584
- They always bring it up.
- 1540
- 01:08:08,585 --> 01:08:10,211
- They're like, "Yeah, I ran
- the New York City Marathon."
- 1541
- 01:08:10,212 --> 01:08:12,922
- I always ask, "Did you win?"
- 1542
- 01:08:12,923 --> 01:08:14,590
- "No, but I finished."
- 1543
- 01:08:14,591 --> 01:08:16,926
- "What place you come at?"
- "I don't know."
- 1544
- 01:08:16,927 --> 01:08:20,304
- "Sounds like
- you came in last."
- 1545
- 01:08:20,305 --> 01:08:24,975
- "Really what you're saying
- is you lost the New York
- City Marathon."
- 1546
- 01:08:24,976 --> 01:08:26,435
- "If I were you I
- wouldn't bring that up."
- 1547
- 01:08:26,436 --> 01:08:28,020
- (audience laughs)
- 1548
- 01:08:28,021 --> 01:08:30,356
- But that's why some
- people run marathons
- 1549
- 01:08:30,357 --> 01:08:32,817
- so that they can say,
- "I ran a marathon."
- 1550
- 01:08:32,818 --> 01:08:36,278
- Which to me is not
- a good enough reason.
- 1551
- 01:08:36,279 --> 01:08:37,988
- Heck, I can say
- I ran a marathon.
- 1552
- 01:08:37,989 --> 01:08:40,866
- In fact, earlier I did.
- 1553
- 01:08:40,867 --> 01:08:43,077
- It didn't feel good,
- it felt dishonest.
- 1554
- 01:08:43,078 --> 01:08:47,832
- I guess what I'm trying to say
- is marathon runners are liars.
- 1555
- 01:08:47,833 --> 01:08:50,167
- All of them.
- 1556
- 01:08:50,168 --> 01:08:52,044
- It's too far.
- It's way too far.
- 1557
- 01:08:52,045 --> 01:08:56,549
- 26.2 miles, that's too far
- to run, jog or frankly drive.
- 1558
- 01:08:56,550 --> 01:08:58,717
- Let's be serious.
- 1559
- 01:08:58,718 --> 01:09:00,594
- But you know what?
- I'm not a runner.
- 1560
- 01:09:00,595 --> 01:09:01,762
- I'm not a runner.
- Half of you are like,
- 1561
- 01:09:01,763 --> 01:09:04,014
- "We never thought you were.
- 1562
- 01:09:04,015 --> 01:09:06,433
- At this point we're not
- sure if you're a walker."
- 1563
- 01:09:06,434 --> 01:09:08,519
- But running is huge right?
- 1564
- 01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:10,271
- There are stores
- just for runners.
- 1565
- 01:09:10,272 --> 01:09:12,022
- There's magazines
- dedicated to running.
- 1566
- 01:09:12,023 --> 01:09:14,441
- "Runners World," a magazine
- all about running,
- 1567
- 01:09:14,442 --> 01:09:16,485
- and if you thought
- running was boring,
- 1568
- 01:09:16,486 --> 01:09:18,863
- wait 'til you read
- about running.
- 1569
- 01:09:18,864 --> 01:09:21,699
- (audience laughs)
- 1570
- 01:09:21,700 --> 01:09:24,535
- At this point,
- is there any information
- 1571
- 01:09:24,536 --> 01:09:27,872
- we don't have on running?
- 1572
- 01:09:27,873 --> 01:09:32,001
- Oh, you're supposed to use
- your arms when you run.
- 1573
- 01:09:32,002 --> 01:09:36,046
- What? I think I've been
- runnin' backwards.
- 1574
- 01:09:36,047 --> 01:09:38,340
- No wonder I keep losin'.
- 1575
- 01:09:38,341 --> 01:09:40,926
- (audience laughs)
- 1576
- 01:09:40,927 --> 01:09:41,969
- The runners high.
- 1577
- 01:09:41,970 --> 01:09:44,221
- I'm sure that's not a myth.
- 1578
- 01:09:44,222 --> 01:09:50,394
- Let me get this right.
- You're confusing
- exhaustion for high?
- 1579
- 01:09:50,395 --> 01:09:53,147
- Have you ever
- been high before?
- 1580
- 01:09:53,148 --> 01:09:58,027
- How can you confuse,
- "I can't breathe" with "Joy?"
- 1581
- 01:09:58,028 --> 01:10:00,362
- (audience laughs)
- 1582
- 01:10:00,363 --> 01:10:02,781
- The runner's high.
- 1583
- 01:10:02,782 --> 01:10:04,700
- Has anyone ever used
- that as an excuse?
- 1584
- 01:10:04,701 --> 01:10:08,704
- Sorry I ate all the chips.
- Runner's high.
- 1585
- 01:10:08,705 --> 01:10:10,205
- Hey, I ran a 10K
- in high school.
- 1586
- 01:10:10,206 --> 01:10:12,875
- I think I'm still high.
- 1587
- 01:10:12,876 --> 01:10:15,502
- But there's running, and then
- there's running a marathon.
- 1588
- 01:10:15,503 --> 01:10:19,340
- You know you have to
- pay to run a marathon?
- 1589
- 01:10:19,341 --> 01:10:21,467
- What?
- 1590
- 01:10:21,468 --> 01:10:23,093
- For the New York City Marathon
- 1591
- 01:10:23,094 --> 01:10:25,262
- you have to pay $250
- 1592
- 01:10:25,263 --> 01:10:31,268
- to run by yourself 26 miles.
- 1593
- 01:10:31,269 --> 01:10:35,522
- That's some
- S&M stuff there.
- 1594
- 01:10:35,523 --> 01:10:36,982
- That's like the subplot of
- 1595
- 01:10:36,983 --> 01:10:39,068
- a "Law & Order:
- Special Victims Unit."
- 1596
- 01:10:39,069 --> 01:10:41,362
- You gotta pay that up front.
- 1597
- 01:10:41,363 --> 01:10:43,030
- It's not like there's
- a toll system.
- 1598
- 01:10:43,031 --> 01:10:44,406
- Like we're on 13 mile.
- 1599
- 01:10:44,407 --> 01:10:47,910
- What is this a chip reader?
- 1600
- 01:10:47,911 --> 01:10:49,745
- You ever see the
- beginning of a marathon?
- 1601
- 01:10:49,746 --> 01:10:52,331
- All there runners line up in
- their voluntary prison number?
- 1602
- 01:10:52,332 --> 01:10:54,249
- (audience laughs)
- 1603
- 01:10:54,250 --> 01:10:57,586
- And then someone
- shoots a gun. Red flag.
- 1604
- 01:10:57,587 --> 01:11:01,215
- And the runners disperse
- like Godzilla's approaching.
- 1605
- 01:11:01,216 --> 01:11:03,175
- Ah!
- 1606
- 01:11:03,176 --> 01:11:07,137
- Why is there a weapon
- involved in a foot race?
- 1607
- 01:11:07,138 --> 01:11:11,058
- Whatever happened to
- someone saying "go?"
- 1608
- 01:11:11,059 --> 01:11:13,560
- All right let's review how
- we're gonna start the marathon.
- 1609
- 01:11:13,561 --> 01:11:15,562
- We'll get all the
- lemmings lined up there
- 1610
- 01:11:15,563 --> 01:11:18,774
- and then without any warning,
- Cooter will shoot his .357.
- 1611
- 01:11:18,775 --> 01:11:21,235
- (audience laughs)
- 1612
- 01:11:21,236 --> 01:11:24,321
- In the air this time, Cooter.
- 1613
- 01:11:24,322 --> 01:11:26,615
- Then we'll just sit
- back, count the money
- 1614
- 01:11:26,616 --> 01:11:29,243
- and watch some of
- them soil themselves.
- 1615
- 01:11:29,244 --> 01:11:30,786
- (audience laughs)
- 1616
- 01:11:30,787 --> 01:11:34,207
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1617
- 01:11:38,336 --> 01:11:41,255
- You ever see the
- winner of a marathon?
- 1618
- 01:11:41,256 --> 01:11:43,590
- They do not look healthy.
- 1619
- 01:11:43,591 --> 01:11:47,219
- They look like they were
- forced to run a marathon.
- 1620
- 01:11:47,220 --> 01:11:50,139
- Like it was some negotiation
- as part of ransom.
- 1621
- 01:11:50,140 --> 01:11:51,515
- I finished, I finished!
- 1622
- 01:11:51,516 --> 01:11:54,476
- Now can I have my children?
- 1623
- 01:11:54,477 --> 01:11:57,062
- I ran 26 miles,
- I drank my own urine,
- 1624
- 01:11:57,063 --> 01:11:59,106
- I'm wearing
- a tin foil blanket.
- 1625
- 01:11:59,107 --> 01:12:02,359
- What's going on
- with my kids?
- 1626
- 01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:04,778
- Of course I respect
- people who run marathons.
- 1627
- 01:12:04,779 --> 01:12:06,071
- Heck, I'm impressed
- by the people
- 1628
- 01:12:06,072 --> 01:12:08,741
- who pass out
- water at marathons.
- 1629
- 01:12:08,742 --> 01:12:11,869
- I always look at them,
- I'm like, I couldn't do that.
- 1630
- 01:12:11,870 --> 01:12:16,749
- Probably gotta get up early,
- then you gotta find cups.
- 1631
- 01:12:16,750 --> 01:12:20,252
- Then there's passin'
- out all that water.
- 1632
- 01:12:20,253 --> 01:12:23,881
- My arm's just sore
- thinkin' about it.
- 1633
- 01:12:23,882 --> 01:12:26,216
- At least those people are doing
- something at the marathon.
- 1634
- 01:12:26,217 --> 01:12:28,260
- You ever see the rest of the
- people watchin' the marathon?
- 1635
- 01:12:28,261 --> 01:12:30,387
- They're like.
- 1636
- 01:12:30,388 --> 01:12:32,057
- (audience laughs)
- 1637
- 01:12:36,144 --> 01:12:40,105
- What is going on
- in your life,
- 1638
- 01:12:40,106 --> 01:12:44,818
- if you're watching
- strangers run a marathon?
- 1639
- 01:12:44,819 --> 01:12:46,654
- (audience laughs)
- 1640
- 01:12:49,491 --> 01:12:51,784
- I suppose some of them are
- there supporting friends.
- 1641
- 01:12:51,785 --> 01:12:53,368
- I wouldn't want that.
- 1642
- 01:12:53,369 --> 01:12:58,123
- I don't even want someone
- to see me in a hurry.
- 1643
- 01:12:58,124 --> 01:13:01,168
- That seems like a big
- request of a friend, right?
- 1644
- 01:13:01,169 --> 01:13:05,089
- "Hey, can you watch
- me run 26 miles?
- 1645
- 01:13:05,090 --> 01:13:08,300
- Only take your entire Sunday."
- 1646
- 01:13:08,301 --> 01:13:11,136
- You can only watch someone
- run part of a marathon.
- 1647
- 01:13:11,137 --> 01:13:12,638
- It's not that big
- of a commitment.
- 1648
- 01:13:12,639 --> 01:13:14,306
- It's like, "You can do it,
- you can do it!
- 1649
- 01:13:14,307 --> 01:13:15,641
- All right,
- I'm goin' to brunch."
- 1650
- 01:13:15,642 --> 01:13:18,685
- (audience laughs)
- 1651
- 01:13:18,686 --> 01:13:21,105
- But you could watch
- someone run a marathon.
- 1652
- 01:13:21,106 --> 01:13:22,481
- You can't go into
- a health club
- 1653
- 01:13:22,482 --> 01:13:25,442
- and watch someone
- on a treadmill.
- 1654
- 01:13:25,443 --> 01:13:26,986
- (audience laughs)
- 1655
- 01:13:34,744 --> 01:13:36,411
- "Excuse me sir,
- what are you doin'?"
- 1656
- 01:13:36,412 --> 01:13:38,539
- "I'm supportin' that lady."
- 1657
- 01:13:38,540 --> 01:13:41,458
- (audience laughs)
- 1658
- 01:13:41,459 --> 01:13:44,920
- "Do you, uh,
- do you know her?"
- 1659
- 01:13:44,921 --> 01:13:46,922
- "Not yet,
- 1660
- 01:13:46,923 --> 01:13:51,718
- but I brought her this
- lock for the bridge."
- 1661
- 01:13:51,719 --> 01:13:54,096
- All right, that is all for me.
- Thank you very much.
- 1662
- 01:13:54,097 --> 01:13:55,472
- (audience cheering,
- applauding)
- 1663
- 01:13:55,473 --> 01:13:57,307
- This was so fun.
- Thank you for coming.
- 1664
- 01:13:57,308 --> 01:13:59,519
- Appreciate it.
- 1665
- 01:14:04,399 --> 01:14:07,193
- (audience applauding,
- cheering)
