EVERY SPOKEN WORD

  1. 0:0015:00

    Duh, duh, duh. (hand slaps)…

    1. JR

      Duh, duh, duh. (hand slaps) Adam motherfucking Egott.

    2. AE

      (laughs)

    3. JR

      How are you, buddy?

    4. AE

      How are you, brother?

    5. JR

      Good to see you, my friend.

    6. AE

      Good to see you. Thanks for having me on.

    7. JR

      Please. I'm, I'm excited to see you.

    8. AE

      Dude, I'm-

    9. JR

      It feels like a-

    10. AE

      ... I, I haven't seen anybody.

    11. JR

      I know, it's like, uh, your long lost friend. Like-

    12. AE

      It, it feels that way.

    13. JR

      Yeah.

    14. AE

      But it also feels like you're literally, like, the only person I've seen. I haven't s-

    15. JR

      Oh, you haven't left the house?

    16. AE

      Not much. I go out on daily walks, but-

    17. JR

      Oh, no.

    18. AE

      ... and I don't really see anybody.

    19. JR

      That's not good for the mental health.

    20. AE

      It's not good at all.

    21. JR

      How you feeling? You all right?

    22. AE

      Yeah, I'm okay.

    23. JR

      Yeah?

    24. AE

      I'm watching a lot of Korean baseball and, uh-

    25. JR

      (laughs) Why Korean baseball?

    26. AE

      'Cause it's the only live sport available.

    27. JR

      Oh, they're playing in Korea already.

    28. AE

      Oh, it's wild. There's stands. The s- you know, stadiums are empty, but they have, like, cardboard cutouts. They have-

    29. JR

      Oh, no, they don't.

    30. AE

      ... cheerleaders with masks and, like, DJs.

  2. 15:0030:00

    He was on top…

    1. AE

      king of the world, for sure.

    2. JR

      He was on top of the world. Like, people forgot, they forgot how hard he murdered too. He was so good.

    3. AE

      The hardest decision I ever had to make was, uh, one day Martin Lawrence and Chris Rock showed up at the same exact time and they both wanted to go up. And I had to decide who was gonna go on.

    4. JR

      Oh my God.

    5. AE

      That was a tough one.

    6. JR

      How long ago was this?

    7. AE

      This was about, uh, a year ago.

    8. JR

      Yeah.

    9. AE

      A year and a half ago.

    10. JR

      That's a hard one, you know.

    11. AE

      Yeah.

    12. JR

      But they should work that out.

    13. AE

      Yeah, right?

    14. JR

      That's not ... It shouldn't be on you.

    15. AE

      That shouldn't be me.

    16. JR

      That's too hard for you.

    17. AE

      Yeah, that was a tough one.

    18. JR

      If there's two of them, I, I mean, I would go, "Go ahead, man. I'll go after you. I want you to do."

    19. AE

      Exactly.

    20. JR

      Yeah. I wanna ... I don't want any beef. And with those two guys, like, they're both legends.

    21. AE

      Mm-hmm.

    22. JR

      You know? They're both legends. When I used to follow Martin Lawrence, man, I, I got, I developed like this ability to accept the fact that I was gonna eat shit and not be so scared because I had gotten beaten down a bunch of times by those crowds. And that was the brilliance of, of Mitzi.

    23. AE

      Mitzi.

    24. JR

      She knew that, you know, it was a tough spot. You know, she just put me on after Martin Lawrence every time, dude.

    25. AE

      (laughs)

    26. JR

      If she was on the, if she was on the line-up, it'd be like Martin Lawrence, he'd do 45 minutes and then it'd be Joe Rogan. I'd be like, "Death."

    27. AE

      (laughs)

    28. JR

      You ever seen that video online where there's these Nigerian guys or these African guys rather, and it's at a funeral. And, uh, when the music starts playing, they go to these guys and then there's a guy getting knocked out. And then when the guy gets knocked out, like, you go back to the, the guys dancing with the coffin. It's a funny meme in MMA circles.

    29. AE

      (laughs)

    30. JR

      You know what I'm talking about?

  3. 30:0045:00

    But vitamin D... No…

    1. JR

      I was thinking all this. I was like, well, Michael Yo is a strong guy. He's healthy and, and, and vibrant. Like, if that guy got sick from it, oh my God, this is scary.

    2. AE

      But vitamin D... No vitamin D and all that-

    3. JR

      Vitamin D deficiency is something that exists-

    4. AE

      And exhaustion.

    5. JR

      ... in like 70% of the population. 70% of the people-

    6. AE

      That was me.

    7. JR

      ... in this country are vitamin D deficient.

    8. AE

      First thing I did when I, when I saw that we, we were gonna be quarantined, I, I ordered a shit ton of vitamin D online. So I take some every day. I, I try and go out in the sun every day 'cause, uh, yeah, I don't want this fucking thing. I think I had it. I think I had it in January.

    9. JR

      Everybody thinks they had it.

    10. AE

      I really did... I've never had a cough like this in my life where I was wheezing. I could barely breathe and the doctors were baffled. They took chest X-rays, had it for three weeks, but who fucking knows?

    11. JR

      You mighta had it. I thought I had it too.

    12. AE

      I don't know. I'll, I'll get an antibody test and figure it out.

    13. JR

      I thought I had it and didn't even feel it.

    14. AE

      ... that makes sense. If there's anybody I can think of-

    15. JR

      (laughs)

    16. AE

      ... that would have it and not be able to feel it, it would be you, for sure.

    17. JR

      No, I'm pretty sensitive to that kind of shit. But I also-

    18. AE

      Oh, congrats, by the way, on fucking Spotify.

    19. JR

      Oh, thank you.

    20. AE

      Holy shit.

    21. JR

      I know. Crazy, right?

    22. AE

      So well deserved, man.

    23. JR

      Thank you. Very nice of you.

    24. AE

      Goddamn.

    25. JR

      Um-

    26. AE

      Sorry, I didn't wanna forget.

    27. JR

      No worries.

    28. AE

      I didn't wanna fucking forget.

    29. JR

      Yeah, dude, I've been ultra paying attention to my health while this is all going on. That's one thing that's helped a lot. Like, while this is going on, I-

    30. AE

      You're almost paying attention to your health.

  4. 45:001:00:00

    That... My... It's someone…

    1. JR

      know, it's like...

    2. AE

      That... My... It's someone of my... The greatest joys of my day com-... I'm in a, a group thread with a, with a bunch of comics.

    3. JR

      (laughs) Yeah.

    4. AE

      And those are the, those are my favorite moments of the day.

    5. JR

      Yeah.

    6. AE

      Just cracking each other up and-

    7. JR

      I'm in this thread-

    8. AE

      ... talking shit.

    9. JR

      ... with Whitney and Nick Schwartzman and D'Elia. It's the most ridiculous thread.

    10. AE

      (laughs)

    11. JR

      It's been going on for years, man.

    12. AE

      (laughs)

    13. JR

      For years.

    14. AE

      What's the-

    15. JR

      I call it the Bi- the Bitch Group. Just bitching about shit. It's really funny, man.

    16. AE

      I'm in a great one with, with Spade and Whitney.

    17. JR

      (laughs)

    18. AE

      There's... It's just the best.

    19. JR

      I think Whitney's just in a bunch of group texts-

    20. AE

      (laughs)

    21. JR

      ... all day long talking shit. It's funny, man. It's so fun.

    22. AE

      I love her with all of my heart.

    23. JR

      Oh, she's a, she's a unique person.

    24. AE

      She's a great human being. She really is a special one.

    25. JR

      Very, very unique.

    26. AE

      Schwartzman too.

    27. JR

      Oh, yeah, he's amazing.

    28. AE

      D'Elia's grea-... Yeah.

    29. JR

      And D'Elia too. It's just-

    30. AE

      We're so lucky.

  5. 1:00:001:05:00

    (laughs) …

    1. JR

      up-

    2. AE

      (laughs)

    3. JR

      ... over and over again. And then at the end, the solution is he takes a pill and the pill keeps him from being an asshole?

    4. AE

      (laughs)

    5. JR

      Like, what? There's no pill for that.

    6. AE

      (laughs)

    7. JR

      Like, that's so crazy. He's an asshole.

    8. AE

      Sorry, he was a major asshole.

    9. JR

      He's a fucking asshole. And we're s- we're supposed to think, "Oh, no, no, no. He just needed a pill." See, once he gets this non-asshole iminium inside of his body-

    10. AE

      (laughs)

    11. JR

      ... it cancels out all the assholishness and he's actually a good guy. So she found a good guy.

    12. AE

      (laughs)

    13. JR

      Oh, she's... Poor lady was a single mom-

    14. AE

      (laughs)

    15. JR

      ... who's living with this fucking mean piece of shit.

    16. AE

      (laughs)

    17. JR

      And a pill fixed it. And I was like, that movie depressed the fuck out of me.

    18. AE

      (laughs)

    19. JR

      And I was talking to this actor and he goes, "Uh, actually, uh, I think he had a lot to offer her." I go, "What?"

    20. AE

      (laughs)

    21. JR

      'Cause it was a popular movie.

    22. AE

      Yeah. Hell.

    23. JR

      He was like-

    24. AE

      It was a film nois-

    25. JR

      ... spouting off. I go, "It was a terrible movie." I go, "Wouldn't... If that la- lady was your sister, wouldn't you want to grab her and go, 'Helen, come on.'"

    26. AE

      Yeah.

    27. JR

      "You're awesome.'"

    28. AE

      He's just a dickhead.

    29. JR

      "This guy's so mean."

    30. AE

      Yeah.
