EVERY SPOKEN WORD

  1. 0:0015:00

    Ready? (clears throat) Headphones, sir?…

    1. JR

      Ready? (clears throat) Headphones, sir?

    2. AS

      Oh, yeah. Do I have to?

    3. JR

      Mm, they're better. (headphones click) You'll lock in. Are we live? Hey, Andrew. How you doing?

    4. AS

      I'm good. How are you?

    5. JR

      I'm good, man. What's up?

    6. AS

      Chilling, man. Thanks for having me.

    7. JR

      Thanks for being here, dude.

    8. AS

      Of course, of course.

    9. JR

      Hey, I like what you're doing.

    10. AS

      Thank you.

    11. JR

      I like a lot of things what you're doing. Uh, first of all, I like that you're, you decided to put all your shit on YouTube.

    12. AS

      Yes.

    13. JR

      You're like, "Fuck it."

    14. AS

      Yeah.

    15. JR

      "Fuck it." Look, it's hard. Look, there's about a million fucking comedians today.

    16. AS

      Right, right.

    17. JR

      There's more comedians now than ever.

    18. AS

      I can take these off. Is that all right?

    19. JR

      You don't ... Yeah. You-

    20. AS

      I'll lock in. Don't worry.

    21. JR

      We don't have to. We don't have to have them on. (clears throat) There's like a million comedians today.

    22. AS

      Yeah.

    23. JR

      And a lot of these companies are overwhelmed.

    24. AS

      Yeah.

    25. JR

      They have no room for all these up-and-coming guys that are coming up.

    26. AS

      Yeah.

    27. JR

      And, you know, some, some guys like you are really good. And-

    28. AS

      Thank you.

    29. JR

      ... there's, they're looking, you know, like, how do you, how do you get your shit out there? Well, just put it out there on YouTube.

    30. AS

      Exactly that.

  2. 15:0030:00

    Right. …

    1. JR

      saying it because they want the audience to think they're cool.

    2. AS

      Right.

    3. JR

      And it m- gives you a little, like, "Ew." But maybe they're good enough so that-

    4. AS

      You see it.

    5. JR

      ... you still laugh.

    6. AS

      Not everybody.

    7. JR

      Yeah. So-

    8. AS

      It is... Authenticity illuminates-

    9. JR

      Yeah.

    10. AS

      ... all.

    11. JR

      Yeah.

    12. AS

      Those comics can't follow a real comic.

    13. JR

      Right.

    14. AS

      Have you ever noticed this?

    15. JR

      They have a hard time, yeah.

    16. AS

      Like, when you see someone who's being truthful, he might not even be as funny, he might not be killing as hard, but it's so authentic that when the comic comes next, it feels like they're reading jokes off a paper.

    17. JR

      Right.

    18. AS

      Right?

    19. JR

      Right, right, right.

    20. AS

      And it's... Our bodies are keyed into... Like, comedy's reptilian if you do it right.

    21. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    22. AS

      Right? You know, like, a lot of times people ask, like, why, like, old women can laugh at the same jokes that I'm telling that, like, these y- young people can laugh at. And then my response is always, "It's not their choice." Like, I'm not telling you jokes to your choice. Like, The Daily Show with Trevor Noah is jokes about how you want the world to be.

    23. JR

      Right.

    24. AS

      I'm telling you jokes about how you deep down feel-

    25. JR

      Yes.

    26. AS

      ... it is.

    27. JR

      Yes.

    28. AS

      I'm going at your gut.

    29. JR

      Yes.

    30. AS

      It's reptile shit.

  3. 30:0045:00

    Of course. …

    1. JR

      a perfect example. Comedy Central took that and they, they half-watered it.

    2. AS

      Of course.

    3. JR

      They cut it like they would sell cocaine.Yeah.

    4. AS

      Right? You're not getting the pure.

    5. JR

      No.

    6. AS

      You're not getting it from Columbia.

    7. JR

      You're not even getting, not even remotely.

    8. AS

      Right?

    9. JR

      They took all the juicy stuff out. (laughs)

    10. AS

      Took the authenticity right out. But it was real for a minute.

    11. JR

      But you can go there still on Tuesday night and that place gets fucking wild.

    12. AS

      Ramped.

    13. JR

      I get sad.

    14. AS

      What do you mean?

    15. JR

      I feel sad for some people that get toasted up there.

    16. AS

      Yeah. I saw a joke.

    17. JR

      Oof.

    18. AS

      There was some kid whose-

    19. JR

      Oof.

    20. AS

      ... not retarded, but what is it? Uh-

    21. JR

      Cerebral palsy.

    22. AS

      Yeah, yeah, yeah. And, um, and, and he's up there with his palsy and the other guy goes, uh, he goes (laughs) , he goes, "You look like your arms drew your legs."

    23. JR

      Oh, Jesus Christ. (laughs)

    24. AS

      (laughs)

    25. JR

      Bro, bro. I fucking howled, dude.

    26. AS

      That is so fucked up.

    27. JR

      We were fuck... He's up there fucking shaking and-

    28. AS

      That's so fucked up.

    29. JR

      You know what I mean? Oh my God, that's so fucked up.

    30. AS

      But he said he looks, he looks like someone put their body in a blender. No, he looks like someone put your voodoo doll in a blender.

  4. 45:001:00:00

    (laughs) That's what we…

    1. JR

      sure no one's looking, no one's around, and they'll go, "Look, I would never say this publicly, but some bitches are fucking crazy."

    2. AS

      (laughs) That's what we do with, like, racist shit.

    3. JR

      They're fucking crazy. (laughs)

    4. AS

      Didn't Burr have that bit about, like-

    5. JR

      Yes, yes, yes.

    6. AS

      ... where you look around and then you slide in, "The thing about these..." (laughs)

    7. JR

      (laughs) Yeah. Yes. Well, this, women feel like i- it's, they've got momentum in this little war of ideas-

    8. AS

      Right.

    9. JR

      ... with the Me Too movement-

    10. AS

      Right.

    11. JR

      ... and the Bill Cosby getting arrested and R-

    12. AS

      Yeah.

    13. JR

      ... Kelly getting arrested and Harvey Weinstein. C- it's just, I, in my opinion, and I bet you think this too, these are good things.

    14. AS

      Yeah.

    15. JR

      When shitty men get put away or they get arrested-

    16. AS

      Yeah.

    17. JR

      ... for abusing people-

    18. AS

      Yeah.

    19. JR

      ... whether it's they're physically abusing men or physically abusing women, it's always good. You shouldn't be physically abusing people.

    20. AS

      Yeah, get them out of here.

    21. JR

      Yeah.

    22. AS

      We used to beat those guys up.

    23. JR

      Yes.

    24. AS

      I mean, this is handled in the community when we were younger, teenagers. "Hey, blah, blah, blah, you know, was rough with this, th- whatever." Who was rough?

    25. JR

      Right.

    26. AS

      And we went over that.

    27. JR

      Can you imagine if you were married and Harvey Weinstein tried to fuck your wife and she went in on an audition and you knew that there was all these-

    28. AS

      It's over.

    29. JR

      ... security guards and all these fucking levels before you got to him, and your wife got into that level and he was treating her like shit and being mean to her and telling her, "If you want to work in this town, you gotta suck this little fat dick."

    30. AS

      (laughs)

  5. 1:00:001:04:52

    Yes. …

    1. JR

      genius work, right? So what is it about him that allows him to be so prolific as an artist? Do you ever notice how prolific he is?

    2. AS

      Yes.

    3. JR

      The guy's constantly working-

    4. AS

      At music.

    5. JR

      Constantly banging out songs. Con-... And there... There's... He doesn't have bad albums.

    6. AS

      No, he's, he is phenomenal at music.

    7. JR

      Yeah.

    8. AS

      Without a doubt, phenomenal at music.

    9. JR

      Right. But this is all from this energy that's inside of him. He figures out how to channel that energy and put it in good ways. But occasionally, like...

    10. AS

      Joe Rogan is that crazy?

    11. JR

      ... it's not also, it's also not a coincidence, it's not a coincidence-

    12. AS

      Yeah.

    13. JR

      ... that when Kanye was on stage, I think it was in San Jose-

    14. AS

      Yeah.

    15. JR

      ... and he said that he didn't vote, but if he was gonna vote, he would've voted for Trump. And the crowd went crazy-

    16. AS

      He did.

    17. JR

      ... and they booed the shit out of him. And then he canceled his tour, and then he went to a dement- mental health institute.

    18. AS

      Right.

    19. JR

      All that shit happened together because he felt the pain of this. Then his response to that was to double down. His response to that was to attribute qualities to Trump that he doesn't even re- really have.

    20. AS

      Right.

    21. JR

      And so Trump, in his, so- in a lot of ways, very wise the way he handles things socially. He let Kanye come into the White House-

    22. AS

      Yeah.

    23. JR

      ... wear that MAGA hat, and just rant up a storm.

    24. AS

      Yeah, yeah, yeah.

    25. JR

      So, so Kanye could define who Trump was. He could define what loving Trump meant.

    26. AS

      Sure.

    27. JR

      He could define why Black people should, uh, should embrace Trump.

    28. AS

      Right.

    29. JR

      He could define all this in his head to sort of justify w- what went wrong with him.

    30. AS

      Right.
