"Mike Birbiglia"

25:03It was just like, it was like, it was like depression, you know, poor motor skills and, you know, something else. And I was like, oh, that's, I thought that was my personality. Oh, yeah. Sean, you, I think you're taking too much, Sean. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, but, boy, but I get, what would, I mean, I would probably, I would have to, I'd be so worried about falling asleep that I never would be able to fall asleep. and I wouldn't want to take that medication. I probably would like strap myself down, but then you wouldn't be able to roll over. So I'd probably like devise some sort of box over my bed.

25:39I'd like build a box, like a cage to sleep in, something like that. And I'd give somebody else the keys. Talk about the cage. There's a period of time where my wife, Jenny, has of course had to deal with this for many, many years. I know. Jenny comes up. For so many reasons. Jenny walks in the room. She's like missing an eye She's wearing a full helmet She and I listen to the podcast all the time She's going to be devastated that this is her mention In the podcast No no no she's a poet She's a poet in her own right How did you meet Jenny? I met Jenny in St. Louis He strangled her once Midnight in St.

26:20Louis by the bus station Okay settle down Settle down Settle down yeah we met in St. Louis many years ago and uh yeah I I you know it was one of those things it was it for me it was you know it was love at first sight like we were both on work you know on work trips and and I just fell in love with her immediately and I'm in love with her to this very day I you know it's a great thing that I loved from your McEnroe episode recently is he said this thing about he and his wife which is which is that they let each other be who they are And I was like, oh, that's such a beautiful sentiment. I said to Jenny, I go, oh, I think of us that way.

27:00She's a poet and I'm a comedian. And those are two people who don't know how heating and electricity work. Yeah, sure. I love that. I like that he said that too. And I was thinking about it too. Right? You guys would agree. Jason, for sure, Amanda lets you be who she is. And I think that that's one of the great things that makes it work for you guys. Oh, yeah. Mike. Now, Mike, you've got a podcast of your own called Working It Out. Working It Out. So it's an exercise? It's just at the gym. Well, similar. And you're just interviewing trainers and the treadmill. Similar to SmartList, Working It Out was a pandemic baby because I couldn't perform as a stand-up in front of audiences.

27:50And so I was like, so I started asking my friends, you know, John Mulaney and Bill Hader and Conan O 'Brien, different people to work out jokes live on the show. And and so now we're 115 episodes in and it's like a big part of my life. Like, I just love doing it. That's great. Yeah. What's one of your what's one of your earliest jokes that you wrote? And that's tried and true. Always works. from from my whole career or from the from this show either well it's funny like the first joke that made sense to me as like i feel like with comedians you it takes you years to find your voice and figure out like what you know what what's what's authentic to you and the and i there There was a joke I did early on where I said, my girlfriend and I are living together and she's starting to think about having kids, which is exciting because we're going to have to break up.

28:51I've decided I'm not going to have kids until I'm sure nothing else good can happen in my life. And it was one of those jokes where it was the first time where I was like, oh, it's not even a punchline. It's just a thought that sort of has an internal twist to it. Right. And that's sort of how I try to think about jokes is like that if they don't even have to strain credibility even. You know what I mean? The turn is authentic and the setup is authentic. Have you ever told a joke about something in your life and someone in your life who's mentioned it? obviously starting probably with your wife, but like other people or anything like that where somebody's going like, hey man, were you talking about this and that they were like put off by it?

29:40I have it all the time, every time I'm on stage. Wow. Like in other words, like I think about that constantly. The sort of what can I talk about? What can't I talk about? Like I have that with my daughter, for example. Because right now she's eight years old, which is an amazing age. but I'm incapable of living in the present. And so my brain goes to when she's 15 and she's going to be like, my dad is garbage. You know what I mean? Because I'm ready for that. Like I'm open to that. It happens, yeah. But my dad didn't have to deal with that. I grew up in the 80s. We said it, but they didn't listen.

30:20They were just like, is someone talking? But when my daughter's 15, she's going to be like, my dad is garbage and I'm going to be like, you're so brave. that's so true how can I amplify your voice you know what I mean so I think about that all the time like I think about like even I have a joke about my daughter that I've been saying recently where like I say Jenny and I went to see my daughter her ballet recital and we're in the audience we're just crying and crying because she doesn't have it you know and I can tell right away and it's one of those things where I'm doing the joke and I'm thinking to myself eventually Una my daughter is going to see this joke and like, what's she going to think?

31:00I don't know. Right. I made the mistake of working my kids and my wife into some stuff I was talking about on talk shows every once in a while. And my wife eventually just pulled me aside and said, that's no more. No more. Come up with stuff that is funny but has nothing to do with me or the girls. But that's your wife and your daughter. They can't take that off the table. for you, right? I mean, I was gonna say, I go through the same thing too and I've done it before on talk shows as well and my kids are older, like, Jason's, my older kids are older and so you do that thing and a couple times, like, we've talked on the, on the podcast and I'm driving with my, and my kids are like, well, listen to it or they've driven it and they're going like, are you, like, I can, it's just a weird, because they are at that age now and then they're kind of like, hey man, look, they're looking, not even my, partner, it's my kids looking at me like, hey, dude, are you talking about me?

32:03Sorry. Yeah, and of course you embellish a little bit to kind of make it funny, but no one knows that. And they know that, but they know that. And it's, yeah. I said this before, Mike, on the show, but I tried to do stand-up years and years and years and years and years ago. Horrible at it. Didn't know how to write. And one of my jokes had to do with ballet. My opening joke was, you know, they say ballet is one of the most difficult things you can do. So I say, just don't do it. I don't I feel like I feel like the non-laughter was intentional from Jason and Will yeah well we've heard that one before yeah I keep the old one I keep I keep waiting and there's you know what I say to Sean one day there'll be a punchline well first of all Sean keep thinking about it first of all a lot of people come on the show and say they saw Goodnight Oscar and loved it I've got the program in my office right here you came to the show yeah and it's unsigned I stood by the stage door and for hours.

32:58Why did you come back? Sean doesn't like the people. I'm such a big fan of yours. Thank you so much. I'm just intimidated. I always feel like I'm going to be in the way. No. Yeah, but I'm so honored that you came back. We talked about that recently. We talked about that recently with somebody. Mike, you probably felt it would be presumptuous for me to just knock on the door and say, hey, I'm famous, you're famous, let's talk. Yeah. Right? But had I known, I would have invited you back. Had somebody sign it for you. Mike are you the funniest guy in your family growing up or or was mom and dad or mom or dad someone that gave you the funny gene close call I mean it depends on who you ask my brother Joe you know a lot of times my people will ask my mom they'll go was he always funny growing up and she'll go no no he's uh he's very serious yeah and uh and then she'll say to me she'll go you know you comedians are so serious and i'm like how many comedians do you know you know like are you texting ronnie chang are you on an email chain with roy wood jr like what is what is happening here yeah yeah but but uh no and my brother but my brother joe i feel like has has the reputation as being the funniest one in the family and he and i work together and collaborate on writing and everything which is has been very cool oh that's cool it's a funny it's a fun it's a funny family it's a it is i don't know who's intending to be funny and who isn't uh you know my growing up my dad my dad's very funny but he'd get very angry growing up he'd be like god damn it i'm eating pretzels you know and be like is he angry is he hungry what is the emotion being expressed yeah there's a lot of fireworks a lot of there's a loud house yeah yeah where where was it where was this house what part of the world were we massachusetts and how many how many siblings I'm youngest of four, so I was sort of like the, is there another child?

34:57Wait, hang on. What part of Massachusetts? Shrewsbury. Shrewsbury. Yeah. Shrewsbury. And what's Birbiglia? What nationality? Birbiglia is Italian. Great question. Great question, Sean. Well, just because you're youngest of like a big, loud family. Oh, why do you like to put people in the boxes, Sean? Oh, so he's Italian. You got it all figured out now. What kind of box do you want to put him in? A pasta box? Yeah. What are you going to do? What are you going to get? Some elbow macaroni? What are you going to do? You want him to forget about the question? F you, Sean. Mike, I'm sorry. Now, Mike, you know, being a guy who does what you do.

35:28Hey, Will, I'm not offended, just so you know. I'm not offended. Oh, God damn it. Doing what you do, you literally, you work alone. Yeah. Except when you're collaborating with your brother. With your brother. But, so when you did the directing stuff, or when you're acting on something, and it's much more of a teamwork, right? a team sport, are you able to switch gears easily or is it kind of like uncomfy? I do, I love that. I love the collaboration side of the field. Like I started when I was in college, I was cast in the improv troupe and that was sort of like at Georgetown, that sort of changed my life.

36:06And I know you, I loved your Mulaney episode and he was talking about it. So Mulaney basically was cast by Nick Kroll in the same improv group that I cast Nick Kroll in like a year before. Oh, wow. No way. Yeah, so Nick and John and I have been friends for years and years. And then when John moved to New York, he came on tour with me. And so we've just known each other forever. But the improv community, like, I feel like that sort of formed my entire approach to creativity and creation and all the rules of yes and everything. And, like, I made a movie about it. It's called Don't Think Twice with Keegan-Michael Key and Gillian Jacobs where it's a bunch of best friends in an improv group.

36:47and then one of them gets cast on sort of a Saturday Night Live type of show and the rest of them don't. And it's sort of about what happens in life when people realize that not everything's fair. What kind of, were you guys doing like heralds and that kind of thing? Yeah, okay. We believe in it, yeah, we actually, when I was in college, we were doing heralds. There was ImprovOlympic actually came and did workshops with us. There was a group across town at GW called Recess and UCB4 with like Amy and Matt and Matt and Ian came and did workshops with them. Oh, they did. Who came down from ImprovOlympic?

37:22So it was this group called Frank Booth and they were fantastic. And it was, you know, so Sharna Halpern came. Sharna, of course. And Liz Allen, who ended up years later being, we hired her as the coach of our fictional improv group in this movie, Don't Think Twice. And so, yeah, the collaboration, like I love and uh well now well speaking of that Mike you know like you're so funny and so such a brilliant writer and such a brilliant performer truly do you have any um aspirations what's that there's a butt uh but but you seem like a dick like a dick like a dick you seem like a dick a real dick but like but like other Italians I've met is that what you're doing Sean yeah for fuck's sake Wait, Sean, as a fan of the show, can I ask Sean something, which is, are these guys ever too much on you?

38:23Are you joking me? We get pages of texts afterwards like, do you want to know what, you guys? When you, I feel. It's all bad. It is true. A lot of the time. Yeah, it's pretty bad. And we will be right back.

38:42All right, back to the show. I'm sorry, Sean, but what was your question? I apologize. I'm probably, wait, can I do it? Have you ever forgotten a joke when you were on stage? Did you ever go up? Did you have somebody have to throw you a line? You have a podcast. Have you ever forgotten your question doing your podcast? What's your funniest podcast? Sean, these are great questions. These are really spot on. I'm crossing them off as they say them. No, have you? If this was the 80s or 90s and you were as brilliant as you are now, they'd hand you a sitcom, right? And now people aren't really doing that kind of thing anymore.

39:21Yeah. So are you doing the dream that you've always wished to stand up and writing and touring and all of that? Or is there more that you want to do that you haven't done? First of all, I auditioned once for the role of Buster. They gave it to somebody else. Tony Hales, Buster? Yep. Yeah. So Jason and Will, just sorry to put you on the spot, but do you feel like they went in the right direction with that one? Absolutely not. The show would still be on the air if you played Buster. Well, I'd love to see. I mean, I don't know because I don't know what you did. And if you're prepared, if you remember at all what you did, I'd love to see it, Mike.

39:53Let's improvise a scene right now. Will, you play Joe. I'll play, was it Michael? Yes, Michael. There he is. There's Busty. What are you doing? And Michael. And there's, hey, Buster, Bud, could you please take your shoes off before you bring that mud inside the house for us? Thank you. Oh, I don't know. I don't know if I can. I think I'm already inside the house. Of course you're inside. Look around you. What is this, your first time in a building? Sorry, Mike. Oh, I seem to have taken off my shirt. Oh, yeah, no, shoes, please. Just undo the velcro and take them off. There go my pants. And, Job, what are you upset about?

40:32Did your segue run out of gas? See? Okay, sorry. And the show got canceled? The show got canceled. But, John, to answer your question, Yeah, like I auditioned for, I auditioned to play Jim on The Office. I auditioned to play Jonah on Veep. I auditioned, you know. Wow, wow. I don't know what happened to any of those shows, but I'm fine with it. You're doing just. You're doing just. Yeah, you're doing great. You know what happened to all those shows, Mike? They all went off the air. You know who's not off the air? Eventually, yeah. You know who's not off the air? You. Who? You. You. You're filming me on the air.

41:09Well, truthfully, like when I was in like 2008, I got like a CBS sitcom. And I think that if I had had my druthers, it would be like something like Arrested Development where it's like off the wall and improvisational and nuts. And at CBS in 2008, that was not on the menu. No. Right, right. And so it became a very watered down Mike Birbiglia. And by the end of it, I was just like, we shot the pilot. And the cast was incredible. Nick Kroll played my cousin. And Bob Odenkirk played my brother. And it was as good as we could do within the constraints of network TV at that time. But then it didn't get picked up for air.

41:53And honestly, it was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I was crushed at the time. But then I went back to New York. And I mounted my first solo show. And then I went on to make all these solo shows. Right, and you were doing something that was an absolute bullseye for you and your sensibility as opposed to the other show wasn't, right? Yeah, it was sort of watered down. Everything happened for a reason that way. I had a similar experience doing a multicam that would have killed me and had a similar experience. Which one? Was it the one before? Right before Rest of Development.

42:29Yeah. And had that happened. The Mike O'Malley show? No, no, no, no. It was this other one called Still Standing that I did. Anyway, and I got fired after the pilot. And I was so upset. You would have been unavailable for work. I would have been unavailable for Arrested Development. And at the time, Brian Callen said to me at the time when I got fired, because I knew Brian from way back in the day, and he goes, oh, wait, you're mad that you're not the fucking fifth lead who every other episode walks in and goes, hey, what the hell happened to my couch? He goes, okay. He goes, you're fine. Just be happy and don't fucking worry about it.

42:59And literally he was like, God's doing you a favor. in fucking six months. Anyway. Now, Mike, when you went in and helped out our friend Jimmy Kimmel and you hosted his show for a week when he was suffering from COVID. He got an attack of the summers. Yeah, yeah. Vicious. You're great, Mike. Vicious. Now, did you, was it, how was that taste? Is that something that you would want to do maybe? I loved it. I mean, Jimmy is the greatest, obviously, and I was flying from... No, no, Fallon. He's talking about Fallon now. Stay on my question. We're talking about Jimmy Kimmel. Okay, if you say so, Mike.

43:40I don't know. I debate him. Get Kimmel in here. So I was in Chicago. As a matter of fact, exactly the same time Sean was in Chicago with Goodnight Oscar. I was at Steppenwolf and they called... I was going to fly out to be a guest and I was on Southwest Airlines and I get a text from Jimmy Kimmel and he goes, I'll switch you to private if you host for me. Yeah, exactly. He goes, I might have COVID. And then five minutes later, he goes, you're going to be the host instead of the guest. And then five minutes after that, he texted me, you're interviewing Tom Cruise. And five minutes after that, he texted, Tom Cruise has canceled.

44:29Oh, my God. Which means apparently he's not willing to do all his own stunts. He's not willing to go the distance from Kimmel to Birbiglia. Sure. Right. No. Well, they should have allowed Matt Damon to finally get on the show. Yeah, right. No, they still bumped him, huh? But I loved it. I mean, yeah. I mean, he's, I mean, Kimmel's amazing. But doing a talk show, hosting a talk show and being able to improvise basically with guests, even though, you know, a lot of that stuff is sort of predetermined what questions are going to be asked and roughly what answers are going to be given, you still, I would imagine, would just soar in that environment.

45:07I appreciate it. I mean, I love being able to do Working It Out as a podcast and then also do my stand-up and solo shows and touring. Like, I like the, I don't know. You're good. Thanks. Like, I feel like I'm lucky, especially like I live in... Mike, just say you want to do the late-night show, for Christ's sake. Yeah. Okay. Why are you fighting this shit? What's wrong? You come in, you're combative. Because it's CBS. It's never going to work to CBS again. Take the late night gig. I don't get it. What's your game, Babiglia? What's your game? Do the late night gig. First of all, Will, I'd be remiss if I didn't mention that.

45:41Will and I were in Popstar together, and this is something, Will, you'll never hear because you're you, but I lived, at the time, The Lonely Island was making that movie. I lived next to Jorma Takone from The Lonely Island. and he was writing that movie with those guys with with andy and akiva and he and i he said to me he goes we're gonna get you know he gets riled up yorma he's like we're gonna get the funniest guys to play this group that's like in t like a tmz kind of group and it's gonna be like this person this and one day he came to me he's like we got will arnett to play the the vin you know character and he was so happy and and then on set it all i don't know if this is south i don't know but then but then no uh on set i and i feel like you got to take this compliment you've you broke a lot of takes because people were laughing so hard on the set i'm done i need to see that movie and then i want to watch hot rod too well we should do a double Bill.

46:44I thought you were going to say that Yorma, whom I adore, Yorma is one of the all-time greats, and you know you're his neighbor and friend and such a funny dude. I love all the Lonely Island guys, but Yorma... Let me finish on talking about Yorma. Sweet Yorma. Hey, Sean, cool it, huh? Mike, I thought you were going to say, Yorma said we're going to get the funniest guys to play these guys at the TMZ, and then the next day he goes, okay, the funniest guys weren't available. We do have.

47:20Mike, first of all, I'm just remembering we DM'd each other after my show. Fucking cool it, dude. You picked clean, all right? Oh, I wasn't going to bring it up. I wasn't going to bring it up. Okay. Thank you. And thank you for saying such nice things about it. But I did want to, because it's me, I want to say worst heckler, worst experience ever. Worst heckler. Oh, God. I feel like, honestly, you know, speaking of Steve Martin, like, I feel like his Born Standing Up and, like, interviews he's given over the years are the best advice about dealing with audience gone wrong stuff. And he always says, like, just react honestly in the moment.

47:54You know, like, if someone, you know, shouts condom or some bullshit, you know, just like, sir, you know, I'm doing a show and thanks for being here. but that's actually not helpful. I have something prepared. And like, and like that's sort of, that's, that, and what I find is that when you do that is that it really, it ends the thing because people just go like, no, I know. Oh yeah, that guy's the asshole and this guy knows what he's doing. Let's move up. Rather than, rather than challenge or be challenging or aggressive back to him, you mean. Yeah. And I, early in my career, I was not good at this.

48:34I mean, I remember like, you know, I, you know, 20 years ago i i remember performing in a casino and there were these two guys in the front row who looked like maybe some kind of organized criminals and they weren't smiling or laughing they were very very angry and they were with these two women and they were just talking and talking talking as though i wasn't there as though there wasn't a show of any kind right right and so i kept being like hey maybe don't talk maybe go talk somewhere else yeah you know and they just kept talking to him. Finally, I didn't know what else to do. And I was inexperienced.

49:10And I said, hey, gentlemen, I feel like, yeah, I said, gentlemen, I feel like maybe you should take your, your prostitutes. And, and I, I'm not standing behind this story. This is not, first of all, it's nothing I would say today. I won't recommend this. And the guy looked and maybe you guys should leave and the guy looked at me in the eye and he goes i'm gonna fucking kill you and no one laughed i didn't laugh he didn't laugh the audience didn't laugh we were all uncertain of what was about to happen and then they escort this guy out i'm with my brother joe after the show we're gambling at the blackjack table and joe yells at me he goes mike Like, you can't do that.

50:06It's dangerous, you know. And you can't say that to people. You can't say people's wives are prostitutes. And I go, Joe, it wasn't my best moment. I get it. And at that moment, these two women come over. And they go, are you guys looking for dates? And they're the two women from the front row of the show. Oh, my God. No way. Couple of professionals. Yeah. Wow. So you'd called this guy out. And maybe I was indeed about to be murdered. Mike, have you always had an eye for hookers? Yeah. Sorry. Be able to just pick them out of a crowd, literally. Just because it seems like people have a savant for different things.

50:51Mike, didn't you have a show called Spot the Pro for a while?

50:58Spot the Pro. It's awful that he said that But it's kind of fun to say I'm gonna fucking kill you I'm gonna fucking kill you When somebody says I'm gonna fucking kill you I'm gonna fucking kill you It's horrible but it's fun to say Have you guys ever been threatened Has anybody ever said that to you in that way Or something close to that I think I've seen that said With someone's eyes But never verbalized I had a guy once, this is a true story I was a teenager and I remember I was in a McDonald's in Toronto, and there was a guy, there was a big line, two lines for the fuck, it was pre, you know, whatever, 100 ,000 years ago, but there was a guy in the other line, but ahead of me.

51:42And he was, there was something about him, he had the worst energy human I'd ever seen up to that point in my life, and he looked like he was just like, gonna fuck it, there was something up with the dude. And I was talking to my friends, and I remember this like it was yesterday. I was looking at him, because I was like, look at this, fuck, In my mind, I'm thinking, this guy's a fucking murderer. Like, this guy's fucking just the craziest looking dude. And I swear to God, I don't know how. He was looking. He was facing forward. I was behind him. He turns around and he goes, don't fucking look at me.

52:16And then turned back around. And I almost, for real, for the first time in my life, I almost shattered my pants. He said, one happy meal, please. Yeah. Yeah. It was, I remember to this day, don't fucking look at me. You imagine what kind of nightmares Mike would have had if that happened to him? Oh, my God. Oh, man. Michael is like taking himself out of top floor, not a second floor. Oh, jeez. Oh, Michael. Mike, we've kept you six minutes over. We apologize. God, Mike, you're fun. You're fun. You make the time go so fast, Mike. Huge. Huge. You guys are, this is a dream come true. I listen to the show with my wife, Jenny, and it's like listening to your three funniest friends, and you don't have to talk.

53:01And today, I got to talk, which is cool. But barely. While you were listening with her, little did you know, we had plans to bring you on here. Yeah, little did you know that we had talked about. And hopefully you're listening to it now with Jenny. And just, again, we want to say hi to Jenny. She's a fan. Yep. We love your poetry. and we love your poetry and we're a fan of yours and so and Mike I mean it when I said you truly truly have been on my list too for like a couple years now surprise and Will where were you on that? yeah Will um I'm going through a canyon right now man so I can't Jesus you're kind of breaking up okay you're kind of breaking up we'll call you back we'll call you back Mike thank you I knew you were on somebody else's list because you don't know who's on whose list yeah wait wait Let me say one more thing, too, because I listened to the show.

53:55In my special, The Old Man in the Pool on Netflix, I talk about how my family wasn't an I love you family growing up. Like, we didn't say I love you. We said take care, which is sort of like a passive-aggressive command. Like, I'm going to need you to do something for me. Take care, you know. But you guys always say I love you to each other, and I find it so sweet and meaningful. Well, it's true. I just want to say that. Oh, that's true. Well, you know what? We love you now, Mike. You're part of the thing. I love you, too. We sure do. Anything you want to say to Tracy? I mean, if you know the show, is there anything?

54:27Tracy, I could recommend some of my Netflix specials and my movies. And thank you for supporting Sean all these years through all that he's been through. Yeah, she's the best. I love her. Mike, do you have a recommendation for us for a good word to work into our buy? Oh, we've never done this. Yeah, we're pretty tapped out. since you're a listener of the show. You ever thought, God, why don't they ever use this word? That would be easy. Like, you know, you all have children, right? Sure, sure, sure. So I would just say, just think of your favorite song or Lala. Yeah. Oh. Okay, that's good. We'll keep that in mind.

55:13We'll keep that in mind. We're not going to do it yet. We're not going to do it yet. Michael, goodbye. We love you. Love you. Mike. Bye, Mike. Love you, Mike. You're the best. Love you, Mike. I love you. Goodbye. Goodbye. Bye. We are clear. Mike per biglia. Oh. Oh. Good. Oh. Very good. It's per biglia. I'm just saying for the bye. Oh, oh, shit. As a bye, you stupid ass. I'm so stupid. Fuck. Okay, okay. You're dumber than me. Good, you know what? Stupid ass. Then I get to say it then. Okay. Oh, okay. Okay. If I'm so stupid. Let's see if you can work it in smoothly. I'm so stupid to you. I love that guy, Jay.

55:53I love him. He's so funny. He's so fucking funny. Yeah, I mean, I watch his stuff all the time, and I'm like, oh, it's like new but old school, like his comedy, like you were saying, like storytelling stuff. Sean, I'm going to call you out on this, and I don't want to do it on the show because Mike's listening, but that's not true. The other day I said, hey, do you know Mike Pavilion? He said, who's that? Untrue. And I showed you a special, and you go, what am I watching? And I said, you're watching Mike Barbellius especially. And you said, I don't see anything.

56:27He's invisible to me. He's worthless and talent free. Turn it off. No. No, he is so fucking... I've been such a fan for so long. I agree. He's so fucking funny. But a lot of comics don't do that anymore. I mean, some of them do, but he... I love that he does the one man shows on Broadway. I think it's really fucking cool. Really cool, yeah. And it takes... That'd be fucking hard as shit. Think about it, Sean. You just got off Broadway. Imagine doing a one-man show every night. I mean, forget. Can't do it. Did it. Don't want to do it again. Yeah. Jay, you were just saying. You're going to do it.

57:02You can't even make a speech at a fucking good friend's birthday party. Well, but a one-man show. Nah, you can't make a speech at a good... Nah, you can't. I'm not good on my feet with a microphone in my hand and a spotlight in my face. That's it. But Jason and I, Will, the other night at this party, ran into Gustavo Dudamel. Did you really? Yeah. Who orchestrated that? Oh, wonderful. Aren't you good? Wow. Somebody took a nap and somebody's home from Atlanta. Uh-huh. Am I happy to be. You know what? But he's going to be tired soon, and then hopefully someone is just going to put him right to bed and sing him a nice, long lullaby.

57:48And you know who I hope the person who sings it to me is? Who? Mike Berb... Beiglia! You got a double bye. You got a bye-bye today. I got it from somebody else. I got that from somebody else. Double bye-bye. Double bye-bye. Smartless.
