4. JRJoe Rogan0:12

   I filmed a special, and then I just fucking fell off.

5. SPSpeaker0:15

   I had a margarita at dinner once, and I was like, "All right, I'm back." [clears throat]

6. JRJoe Rogan0:19

   Yeah, that'll do it. It's just that one, and you think, "I'll just have one." Once in a while.

7. SPSpeaker0:22

   It was nice. It just... I was drinking too much because, uh, uh, the, you know, owning a club, there all the time, you know, how much... Everyone's like, "Do you want a shot? Do you want a drink?"

8. JRJoe Rogan0:31

   Oh, yeah, I can imagine. When I'm at your club, I get blackout drunk every time. Like, an actual problem. Like, I walk down the stairs, I'm like, "What the fuck just happened?" [laughs]

9. SPSpeaker0:38

   [laughs]

10. JRJoe Rogan0:38

    I drink so much at The Mothership. Austin in general. Are we on? Are we-

11. SPSpeaker0:42

    I think we're rolling.

12. JRJoe Rogan0:43

    Yeah, the problem is Shane. [laughs]

13. SPSpeaker0:45

    Oh, yeah. He's an animal. I don't know how he does it. I did the Bridgestone Arena with him on Friday night. Uh, I mean, first of all, just insane, like 20,000 people.

14. JRJoe Rogan0:53

    Right.

15. SPSpeaker0:53

    I mean, fucking-

16. JRJoe Rogan0:54

    It's nuts

17. SPSpeaker0:55

    ... Saturday night I did 95 people at the Dojo of Comedy. [laughs]

18. JRJoe Rogan0:58

    Is that the first time you did a big one in the round?

19. SPSpeaker1:00

    In the round, yeah.

20. JRJoe Rogan1:00

    In the round is, like, oddly intimate, isn't it?

21. SPSpeaker1:03

    Yeah.

22. JRJoe Rogan1:03

    'Cause everyone's facing each other.

23. SPSpeaker1:05

    Yeah, you can, uh-

24. JRJoe Rogan1:05

    It's pretty cool

25. SPSpeaker1:06

    ... it feels like it's a club around you on the bottom.

26. JRJoe Rogan1:08

    Yeah.

27. SPSpeaker1:08

    You kinda, like... It's so funny 'cause people get, like, so in their head. They're like, "Dude, f- it's all these people. It's crazy." I'm like, "I performed to half sold-out comedy clubs. Do you know much more nerve-wracking it is to make eye contact with your fans that are disappointed that they're in a half sold-out room-

28. JRJoe Rogan1:21

    [laughs]

29. SPSpeaker1:21

    ... than 20,000 people that are just there to be like, 'Fucking Shane!'"

30. JRJoe Rogan1:25

    It's one of those things you just do it a couple of times, and you get... It gets normal.
