[00:00:09] Speaker A: Laugh. God. I, I just.
I did. How many more did I publish? 3. Was it this week?
[00:00:15] Speaker B: I haven't looked, but I've been.
[00:00:16] Speaker A: We've got like 15 of these, and.
[00:00:19] Speaker B: We still got some in the can, right?
[00:00:20] Speaker A: Yeah, because I.
My initial thing was I release one a week, try and build a following, and then I realized we're never gonna build a following, so I'll just punt them out randomly.
[00:00:30] Speaker B: No, no.
[00:00:31] Speaker A: And, yeah.
[00:00:33] Speaker C: What makes you think we won't build a following?
[00:00:35] Speaker B: Yeah, I disagree. I.
[00:00:36] Speaker C: If you don't do it once a week, you're definitely right. We're not gonna build a follow up.
[00:00:40] Speaker A: Who gives a shit?
[00:00:42] Speaker B: What. You know, maybe we get a following. But, but.
[00:00:47] Speaker A: And my laugh. Oh, my God. Have you listened to any of them? My laugh, it's abysmal.
[00:00:53] Speaker C: Well, that's just what you think. Everyone thinks their own voice and laugh is the worst.
[00:00:57] Speaker A: Dan Corfman used to call it like Steam Escape. No, that's Blazing Saddles.
[00:01:02] Speaker B: It's like a hyenas laugh.
[00:01:05] Speaker A: Yeah, but it's. It's rasp. Like, it's.
[00:01:07] Speaker B: God.
[00:01:07] Speaker A: I had to listen because I was cutting out all the things you said about Ellen, the background.
[00:01:12] Speaker B: You really did do that.
[00:01:13] Speaker A: Yeah, I did. And I had to keep listening over and over, and. My God, it's painful.
[00:01:19] Speaker B: I didn't think it was that. That bad to say that, but then you're.
[00:01:23] Speaker A: No, no. Painful. Listening to me laughing.
[00:01:25] Speaker B: Oh, well, yeah, that is painful. Listening to. We have to do it all the time. You only have to do it when you listen to the podcast. We have to listen to it every time we see you.
[00:01:34] Speaker C: You're only one third of the people here that have to listen to it.
[00:01:37] Speaker A: Yep, I know.
Yes, indeed.
[00:01:41] Speaker B: Who's that?
[00:01:41] Speaker A: Like, it's a balloon. Poppet. No.
[00:01:45] Speaker C: A balloon releasing air.
[00:01:47] Speaker A: God Almighty.
[00:01:48] Speaker B: Yeah, like a.
Like a queef. Kind of familiar with what a queef is. Spell queef.
[00:01:57] Speaker A: Why am I spelling it?
[00:01:59] Speaker B: It's a hard word to spell.
[00:02:00] Speaker C: It's a hard word to spell.
[00:02:02] Speaker B: Queef. Is it with a Q or k? It's with a Q.
[00:02:05] Speaker C: It's like queen but with an F instead of an N. Okay, keep going.
[00:02:08] Speaker A: Minus the N plus an F. Oh, that was hard.
[00:02:10] Speaker B: Q, U, E, F, F. That's quaff.
Where's the.
[00:02:14] Speaker C: How do you spell queen?
[00:02:15] Speaker A: Are you sure? Isn't you with the G, E, D? You seem to lack basic language skills.
[00:02:21] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:02:23] Speaker A: Oh, you were in the masturbating society, weren't you?
[00:02:26] Speaker B: I, I, I finished third in the state of Massachusetts in 1992. And debate Lincoln. Lincoln Douglas. Debate Lincoln was a president, as you know, from the Lincoln Lodge.
[00:02:38] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:02:38] Speaker B: And Douglas was Stephen Douglas. Are you familiar with this man?
[00:02:43] Speaker A: Was that Michael Douglas's dad?
[00:02:45] Speaker B: Maybe Kirk's brother? Maybe father? Maybe it was Lincoln's rival, Stephen Douglas. You ever go down to Springfield to the museum?
[00:02:55] Speaker A: Did the whole rub the nose in Springfield, Right.
I don't know what you rub Lincoln's nose on the picture on the thing.
Did you rub his. You rub his knob instead just to be a nihilist.
[00:03:10] Speaker B: No.
[00:03:13] Speaker A: The Springfield thing in.
The Lincoln thing in Springfield. You meant to rub his nose for luck?
[00:03:19] Speaker B: I don't remember anything ever.
[00:03:20] Speaker A: Yeah, just like, you know, brass statue.
[00:03:23] Speaker B: I'm finding it hard to remember things. Is you. Do you have trouble remembering things?
No. No.
[00:03:31] Speaker A: Pretty encyclopedic.
[00:03:34] Speaker B: All right, well, I missed you guys last week. I'm sorry I couldn't make our normal time.
Did you guys carry on?
Yeah.
[00:03:45] Speaker C: I don't know what I.
[00:03:45] Speaker B: See, I did that British accent right there.
Carry on.
[00:03:48] Speaker A: Are you gonna carry on for the next two weeks when we're.
[00:03:51] Speaker B: Yeah. What's going on? We're off for two weeks after this.
[00:03:53] Speaker A: Yep.
[00:03:54] Speaker B: We should have knocked out like five today.
[00:03:56] Speaker C: Yeah, we still can.
[00:03:59] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:04:00] Speaker C: Take breaks to watch different specials.
[00:04:01] Speaker B: Should we ever watch some of these specials together?
Would that be like watching porn together? You ever do that?
[00:04:08] Speaker C: But then. But then how would you come here, discuss it?
[00:04:12] Speaker A: You know, you've just kind of.
[00:04:14] Speaker B: No, you come right in here.
[00:04:16] Speaker C: You have to watch it in silence together, though. And that's the same as watching it alone.
[00:04:19] Speaker B: Be silent. You're free to laugh.
[00:04:22] Speaker C: Unless we watch it. Like one of the projectors.
[00:04:24] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:04:25] Speaker A: I mean, you could live record live watch it, but I don't think you can watch it then go in the studio together. Yeah, you missed it at that point.
[00:04:36] Speaker B: Or we could break it down like film, you know, like a athlete watching film.
You know, rewind it and break down each bit.
Like a three hour show.
Break up that.
[00:04:48] Speaker C: I think that's what the people want.
[00:04:50] Speaker B: I'll tell you. The people are listening. You guys were being dismissive about it, But I had a listener reach out to me this week about the show.
[00:04:59] Speaker A: He's like, listener reach out to me.
[00:05:01] Speaker B: Reached out to me.
Somehow got my information, reached out and said how much he liked the special where we talked about limey.
Talked about the origins of limey.
[00:05:13] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:05:14] Speaker C: Was it somebody that we know?
[00:05:15] Speaker B: Somebody that I know? Yeah. Yeah. So were there people listening?
Yeah. And my Wife. She said she's gonna take a look.
I told her that, you know, she's talked about on the show and on occasion. And so she's gonna take a. Peaked her interest. Piqued her interest.
So we're getting a following slowly, but we're getting one.
[00:05:33] Speaker A: Yeah.
Hit double digits by the end of the year, I think. We don't have more than aggressive.
[00:05:40] Speaker B: We don't have more than 10 yet.
[00:05:41] Speaker A: Now we dip down. We started strong. We started strong in dollars. Yeah. And then it's just tailed off. I'll show you the analytics one, one time.
[00:05:50] Speaker B: Yeah, that's not good. You know, like, I. There was. I get these. You know, you get emails and stuff, and. And there's this email I get all the time, and I was about to unsubscribe from it, but I. I kind of know the guy. Not personally, but I know this old, old buck who's sending out these emails, and I. And I didn't want to unsubscribe because I didn't want him to, you know.
[00:06:10] Speaker A: Yeah. You see, Feel bad.
[00:06:11] Speaker B: So I just keep getting it and throwing it in the trash. I don't want to hurt his feelings.
[00:06:15] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:06:15] Speaker B: You think at least, you know, people would do that. They don't have to listen to be subscribed. Right. It's no skin off their back. We don't subscribe to this program.
[00:06:24] Speaker A: No. We don't have any actual subscribers. We just have listens. Oh, the listens are going down.
[00:06:31] Speaker B: The listens are going down.
[00:06:32] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:06:33] Speaker B: From our maiden voyage.
[00:06:35] Speaker C: Well, you know why I think it is?
It's because Borky told some of the.
Some of the comics around here about the show, and they wanted to listen in to get to know Mark Geary a little better.
[00:06:49] Speaker B: Well, this is one way to do that.
[00:06:51] Speaker C: And. And, yeah, and they probably. Maybe they got their fix.
[00:06:54] Speaker A: Yeah. They were like, oh, he is a twat.
[00:06:56] Speaker B: So we had a big spike.
[00:06:57] Speaker A: They told us he's a twat. He clearly is. I got what I needed.
[00:07:01] Speaker C: They checked that box and move on.
[00:07:03] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't want to hear anymore.
[00:07:05] Speaker C: All right, well, confirmed.
[00:07:07] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Well, we'll have to talk to the marketing department.
[00:07:13] Speaker A: Oh, my God. I just heard my own laugh then.
[00:07:15] Speaker B: Oh, you can now you hear it. And now you're here.
[00:07:17] Speaker A: Now I'm, like, mentally attuned.
[00:07:19] Speaker C: Is Mark cleverly the marketing.
[00:07:21] Speaker A: I sound like Motley of Races.
Oh, Motley from Wacky Races.
[00:07:28] Speaker B: Yeah, Mutley.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:07:32] Speaker A: Remember his laugh?
[00:07:35] Speaker B: Yeah, like that. That's what I was trying to Do.
[00:07:37] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:07:38] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, I like your laugh.
[00:07:41] Speaker A: Do you not?
[00:07:42] Speaker B: I like your musk.
There are other housekeeping items I wanted to address. So we're off for two weeks.
[00:07:50] Speaker A: Oh, you know what is funny is I just released three more episodes, so I think there's only six out.
Still calling it the wrong name.
Even by episode six, it's still called the wrong name. Who is still. You are still calling it whatever the shit it was.
[00:08:05] Speaker B: Well, I can't go back in time and.
[00:08:08] Speaker A: But it's funny to hear, like, oh, my God, how many weeks did we do before? I did a cursory Internet check to go, oh, this name's already taken.
[00:08:16] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah, we did quite a few weeks. Yeah.
[00:08:19] Speaker C: Didn't we double up on a couple of those, too?
Like the first two weeks? Didn't we do, like. We did four total?
[00:08:27] Speaker B: Yeah. Oh, yeah.
[00:08:27] Speaker A: We do a lot out there.
[00:08:29] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:08:29] Speaker B: So what was the original name?
I don't even remember.
[00:08:32] Speaker C: You think that's funny or no. Or is that your original.
[00:08:35] Speaker B: Don't make me laugh.
[00:08:36] Speaker C: Don't make me laugh.
[00:08:37] Speaker B: Yeah, and that's already out there.
I thought of a new title.
[00:08:41] Speaker C: Let's change it again.
[00:08:42] Speaker B: Change it again.
On comedy.
[00:08:46] Speaker C: What does that mean?
[00:08:48] Speaker A: It's like a pretend.
[00:08:50] Speaker B: It's like, on cinema. On Comedy.
And we just talk about comedy. I don't want to be restricted to just specials. I'd like to talk about comedy in general.
[00:09:00] Speaker A: Well, we don't have to change the name, though.
[00:09:02] Speaker B: Okay. All right.
[00:09:03] Speaker A: Oh, dear.
[00:09:05] Speaker B: Well, let's talk about the comedy of.
I don't want to show my hand. I like how we start the show and. And you look at me to see right away whether I liked what we watched or not. Right. And I don't like to show. Who is it where you thought I would hate Stuart Lee. Was it maybe?
[00:09:20] Speaker A: Yeah, because you were out for revenge.
[00:09:23] Speaker B: Yeah. But I love Stuart Lee. And it took you a long time to even believe that I loved him.
I knew nothing of our. Of today's comedian.
I still couldn't even get her name right. Throughout the week, I kept saying Stelling or Snelling. I never. Until today, I didn't even know if it was Snelling or Stelling.
But it is Beth Stelling we're here. Here to talk about today.
And I knew nothing of her work, of her time in Chicago. But you have some background with this, with this lass.
[00:09:56] Speaker A: Yep, she's a jolly good lass. She's one of the good ones. She started in Chicago, straight out of the gate. She's you know, kill, killing. Very adept, very committed to what she's doing. Found a voice very quickly rocketed through the ranks in Chicago.
And because she's such a nice person, obviously that makes it easier to book and work with. So she. She pretty much got out of Chicago, you know, in a heartbeat because she's rocketed through the ranks. So anyone. I was. I was looking for older stuff with Beth, and I found one where we did. We used to do that. You remember the Halloween spooktacular at the Lincoln Lodge?
[00:10:42] Speaker B: Yeah. Yes.
[00:10:44] Speaker A: Did you ever pass it? Who were you in it?
[00:10:47] Speaker B: I don't know if it was the same thing, but I remember doing some Kelsey Grammar at one point.
[00:10:52] Speaker A: Yeah. You would have picked someone like Kelsey Graham. Yeah. So Halloween spooktacular, we got said to comedians. Either write material for someone you know and present it or do your material as this other person.
[00:11:08] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:11:09] Speaker A: So the spooktacular, you know, and there was like, I think Tiffany Ogg, remember?
[00:11:14] Speaker B: Sure, sure.
[00:11:15] Speaker A: She. She did. I think she won.
I think we turn it into con. She won as Foxworthy, but she stole my bid.
[00:11:24] Speaker B: I used to do Foxworthy.
[00:11:25] Speaker A: Yeah.
So you were. Cat. What were you doing as Kelsey Grammer in this?
[00:11:30] Speaker B: I was just talking about the show, like about Cheers and reminiscing about Cheers.
Is this where Powski was Santa and wrestled the person to the ground?
[00:11:40] Speaker A: No, no. Powski did a really funny one where he was a joke shop owner. On Spooktacular, Brady Novak comes out dressed as a Mexican wrestler for no apparent reason.
[00:11:49] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. With the mas.
[00:11:50] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:11:50] Speaker B: Natural Libra.
[00:11:51] Speaker A: Then he did all the.
I thought, who did I text the link to that, too? Anyway, Beth did this really funny one. I think she was like Halloween auntie or something. I don't know. But it was like. Okay, someone thought about.
[00:12:04] Speaker B: So she was in the old building.
[00:12:06] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. A Ridge building.
[00:12:08] Speaker B: Did she ever come through this building or she gone by then?
[00:12:12] Speaker A: Well, she's never done this building because basically I had a convo with her. She was here directing someone else's stuff, and she said, you know, I'd love to do the Lodge, but I don't want to have to do three separate shows to make the cheddar that I get from one in a 300 seater. And she's like, you just haven't got a big enough there.
You know, I want to get in, do one show, get out.
Yeah, that makes sense.
[00:12:42] Speaker B: She's here next weekend. The den. You guys will be gone.
[00:12:45] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's kind of a bummer because we, I, I wanted to interview Beth about the mechanics of the special.
[00:12:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:12:55] Speaker A: Like what we think of it. Like, what's it like dealing with Netflix? Do you have to do special prep? Do they tell you this, that and the other, blah, blah, blah. Like, I would love to talk to a comedian, say, what are the mechanics of this thing?
[00:13:10] Speaker B: Well, we can get her outside of next weekend.
[00:13:13] Speaker A: Right, Let me try something. I thought this, you know what, Let me try this.
Bollocks.
[00:13:19] Speaker B: Yeah, we gotta, we gotta get some actual comedians here. Nobody gives a about us. Right. Let's get some comedians in here.
[00:13:25] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:13:26] Speaker B: And who are doing these specials.
[00:13:30] Speaker C: Or if we get our, if we get our following to be above 10, maybe an actual comedian will come on.
[00:13:35] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:13:36] Speaker C: So that's a goal. That's a good goal to have.
[00:13:38] Speaker B: Well, they might do it as a favor to Mark, you know, for launching their careers.
[00:13:43] Speaker A: That's.
[00:13:44] Speaker B: Are you calling it right now? Oh, this is, this is amazing. This is like Gorilla Radio here. This is.
[00:13:54] Speaker A: No voicemail.
[00:13:56] Speaker B: She shot you to voicemail.
[00:13:58] Speaker A: No, it rang and rang. So it wasn't a reject. It was.
[00:14:01] Speaker B: How do you know that? I mean, sometimes when it rings like three times and then it goes to voicemail, they've seen it's you calling and then they hit the side button.
[00:14:09] Speaker C: Yeah, they can hit the button once, then it silences it, but it doesn't cut the ringing off. So you don't know that they've silenced it. That's what I do all the time.
[00:14:16] Speaker A: Oh yeah, Yeah, I do that all the time.
[00:14:18] Speaker B: How do you do that?
[00:14:19] Speaker C: You just hit the button once and it'll continue ringing all four times. But it's not going to buzz anymore and make noise. Right. Of your phone.
[00:14:25] Speaker B: Does what, What Sends it right to voicemail.
[00:14:27] Speaker C: When you, when you do it twice, click the button twice.
[00:14:29] Speaker A: Oh, you have the red button.
[00:14:31] Speaker B: Side button.
[00:14:31] Speaker A: No, the red button.
[00:14:33] Speaker C: I don't have a red button.
[00:14:34] Speaker A: Well, I'm Android. You're probably max. You went on Android. You can have a. Yeah. Reject.
[00:14:40] Speaker C: Get this gone once you use an iPhone. Yeah, yeah. You just hit the side button twice. Click, click, go straight to voicemail.
At least for mine it does. But I have an iPhone 7. Mine's from like 2016.
[00:14:50] Speaker B: No way. You have an iPhone.
[00:14:51] Speaker C: Yeah. No way. Yeah, I swear to God.
[00:14:53] Speaker B: Couldn't work.
[00:14:54] Speaker C: Look at this. Look how small this is. It has got a button and everything.
[00:14:57] Speaker B: It's the SE though your fucking with me.
[00:15:00] Speaker C: No, no, it's every time the, like the battery goes bad or something. They're like, oh, you got to buy a new phone. No, I don't. I need a new battery. Or like, the hard drive fails. Or like, you need new phone. No, I don't. I need a hard drive. I just been replacing the guts in the thing.
[00:15:11] Speaker B: Who the hell does that?
[00:15:12] Speaker C: For, like, 10 years now?
Me.
[00:15:14] Speaker B: You know how to replace the guts in a phone? I'm coming.
[00:15:17] Speaker C: No, no, I just take it to. I take it to a Service.
[00:15:19] Speaker B: You break iFix.
[00:15:20] Speaker C: Yeah, one of those. You can take it to somebody and it's cheaper and. And I'm not buying a new phone every time something goes wrong.
[00:15:27] Speaker B: This guy. I want to spend more time with this guy.
We spend time outside here together.
[00:15:33] Speaker C: Let's go to a.
[00:15:34] Speaker B: Just walking around. Yeah.
[00:15:35] Speaker A: Ruin the magic.
[00:15:36] Speaker B: I'd bring you today, but Fridays is the old lady.
[00:15:40] Speaker C: Yeah, I, I, I got. I got to grab some tile anyway here.
[00:15:43] Speaker B: Yeah, still got him on that tile job.
[00:15:45] Speaker A: That sounds like a. I got. I got to grout some. It sounds like one of your entendres.
[00:15:50] Speaker B: No, it sounds like something out of the both.
[00:15:51] Speaker C: We both got some tile to grow.
[00:15:52] Speaker B: Viz Profanosaurus.
We're out the tile. Maybe one episode we just read out of the viz.
[00:15:58] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:15:58] Speaker B: Our favorite things out of the viz. That's what I'm talking about. I want to expand this out to just not just talk.
[00:16:03] Speaker A: We'll just do special episodes.
[00:16:05] Speaker B: Special episodes. Yeah.
[00:16:06] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:16:07] Speaker B: All right. Where are you going next week? You're going to the. The island.
[00:16:10] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:16:10] Speaker B: Yeah. How long you gone for?
[00:16:13] Speaker A: Just 10 days.
[00:16:13] Speaker B: You're gonna see this guy over there. He's gonna be over there in London town.
[00:16:16] Speaker A: Maybe. I don't know. We always.
[00:16:18] Speaker C: I think we're gonna miss each other. I think you're gonna be around. Around the time that I'm leaving for Amsterdam.
[00:16:22] Speaker A: Yeah, probably.
[00:16:23] Speaker B: Hey, maybe while you guys are gone, I'll keep doing the show. Kind of like the red line, and then I'll run the show into the ground.
[00:16:31] Speaker A: It's already in the ground.
[00:16:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Bring in the. Your understudy, and I'll bring in a guest host.
[00:16:39] Speaker C: Maybe you could pull.
[00:16:39] Speaker B: The show's got to go on.
[00:16:41] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:16:42] Speaker C: It can't get worse.
[00:16:43] Speaker B: I'll wait for you guys.
[00:16:44] Speaker A: As only you and Borky know how to do the text now, right?
[00:16:49] Speaker C: I think the Beyond Bars people know how.
[00:16:51] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:16:52] Speaker A: Next week's you can integrate. You do a double episode. You can do comedy while the Beyond Bars talk about the injustices in the American judicial system.
And you can be sitting in the.
[00:17:04] Speaker B: Comedy that's like a political podcast out of here.
[00:17:07] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:17:08] Speaker B: They're just using the tech.
Hey, how come we're not? We're not. Maybe one of the reasons why we don't have more followers is if you look at the Lincoln Lodge website, it has a list of podcasts on there.
[00:17:18] Speaker A: Yeah, go down.
[00:17:19] Speaker B: There's all kinds of podcasts. Like 10 of them.
[00:17:21] Speaker A: I can't figure.
[00:17:22] Speaker B: Ours aren't on there.
[00:17:23] Speaker A: I could.
[00:17:23] Speaker B: Not on there.
[00:17:24] Speaker A: I can't figure out how to get it on there because they recoded the website and now I'm.
[00:17:29] Speaker C: Kelsey knows she just got the Spellbound podcast.
[00:17:35] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. I'm sure that that's where everybody goes.
[00:17:38] Speaker A: I think somebody removed my original podcast, which had the most listeners and episodes.
[00:17:43] Speaker B: It's not on there. Yeah, I still never listen to that.
I'd like to hear some of your early work.
[00:17:48] Speaker A: Yeah, that was pretty good.
[00:17:49] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:17:50] Speaker A: Better than this.
[00:17:50] Speaker B: Were you flying solo? Yeah, no, no, no.
[00:17:54] Speaker A: I had, like, a guest each week.
[00:17:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
I never got asked to be on the show. Yeah.
Moving on.
Okay, so. So you know this.
This gal. Can you say gal?
Gal.
You know her personally?
You say she's nice. Nice person, good person.
And she came through. And ever since, it's been upward and onward for her. Right. She's done very well.
Where would you put her before we get into the act? Where does she rank in today's comedy in terms of.
If you're ranking comedians.
Right. Because she.
Top 50 comedians working today.
We should do an episode about that. Rank the comedians.
[00:18:49] Speaker A: I mean, she's one of the better ones. Yeah. I don't know how you.
[00:18:52] Speaker B: I'm just trying to gauge your popularity. Part of this show for me is. Is seeing comedy again and doing a sense of where the hell we're at, who's good.
[00:18:59] Speaker A: Well, is she good or is she popular? Which get into within.
[00:19:02] Speaker B: Popular.
[00:19:03] Speaker A: Is she popular?
Well, she got.
[00:19:06] Speaker B: She sit down with Jimmy Fallon and talk about her act.
She on Fallon?
[00:19:13] Speaker C: I. I don't know, but she's up there.
[00:19:15] Speaker B: She's up there.
[00:19:15] Speaker A: Yeah. She's known.
[00:19:19] Speaker B: Well, now she's known to me.
[00:19:20] Speaker C: Let me ask my iPhone 7.
[00:19:23] Speaker B: Is it slow? Does it take a while?
[00:19:25] Speaker C: It gets. It's. It's like every once in a while. Like right now, it's kind of getting a little, like every couple years.
[00:19:30] Speaker B: It's.
[00:19:31] Speaker C: It kind of the works get gummed up and I have to un. Gum them.
[00:19:37] Speaker B: I went to the iPhone store yesterday because it wasn't charging. Right. This is how dumb I am. All Right.
I kept putting the thing in the cord to charge it and it wouldn't always charge. It would charge for a second, then it would go away.
[00:19:52] Speaker A: So you tried a different cord because.
[00:19:54] Speaker B: That would be the first thing was to try a different chord. Tried a couple different cords and a thing, different charger.
I'm even as dumb to think that maybe if I put it into a different outlet.
But electricity is electricity, flavor of electricity, nothing. So I go down there to the store and I say, ah, this thing, I, you know, I've had it a couple years. It's not giving me a good charge. It won't take the charge from the cord.
Guy goes, oh, yeah, let me see that there. Opens the drawer and takes out like a toothpick and sticks it in the end and like cleans out all this lint. Like belly button lint at the bottom of the hole. Yeah, try that now. Yeah, that was all.
[00:20:33] Speaker C: That did it.
[00:20:34] Speaker B: Why didn't I think of that? I mean, how dumb can you be?
[00:20:37] Speaker A: People do the hot glue. Have you seen, you know, you see life hacks.
[00:20:40] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:20:41] Speaker A: You put hot glue in there and then you. The glue sets and you pull it out.
[00:20:45] Speaker B: Oh, I'd be afraid the glue would not come out.
[00:20:47] Speaker A: Yeah. What if. Yeah, yeah, right.
[00:20:48] Speaker C: What if you ruin the thing?
[00:20:50] Speaker A: Well, no hot glue that shitty. You know the little glue gun?
[00:20:53] Speaker C: Yeah, I've got one of those.
[00:20:54] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:20:55] Speaker A: Yeah, I think. I mean, I've seen you maybe try it on an old phone, but that comes up all the time in life hacks.
[00:21:02] Speaker B: Okay.
[00:21:02] Speaker C: Well, yeah, turns out it was Jimmy Kimmel.
[00:21:05] Speaker B: She's been on the Kimmel. Yeah. All right.
[00:21:07] Speaker C: Jimmy Kimmel Live.
[00:21:09] Speaker B: Well, what do we want to do? You want me to say right away whether I like it. You like this? You good? You like it. Good, good. You like her? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think she's fantastic.
[00:21:24] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:21:24] Speaker B: I'm afraid my wife's gonna listen and think I, you know, I've taken a shine.
[00:21:29] Speaker C: You can hear it in your voice.
[00:21:30] Speaker B: Yeah, this gal's fantastic.
[00:21:33] Speaker A: Yep, very.
Her voice is her voice. There's no forced comedy in there.
[00:21:40] Speaker B: No, that's right. That's. That's what I love. Right. Like, we've been talking about all this. It's not forced.
It even says in like the description on the, on the screen before, you play it, like in a casual, laid back style. Beth Stelling's whatever, man, I love that. It was, it was, it was great. She's great. And prior to watching, I said, I gotta watch this to my wife.
She Said, who are you watching? I go, beth Stelling or Snelling, I don't know. Never heard of her. But that's what we're watching today. She goes, she.
Well, then she. She always, you know, I think wants. Thinks. I thinks I'm gonna want to, you know, make love to one of these women or something. Because my history in comedy and making love to the few female comedians that were in the scene back in the 90s and.
[00:22:30] Speaker A: Well, I mean. Two.
[00:22:31] Speaker B: Yeah, well, there was only two. I made.
I made love to them.
[00:22:36] Speaker A: We're not allowed to say the names, are we?
[00:22:38] Speaker B: No.
[00:22:38] Speaker A: You just want to. No, no, let's.
[00:22:40] Speaker B: No, no.
[00:22:40] Speaker A: That could be slanderous.
[00:22:42] Speaker B: Yeah.
Right.
[00:22:45] Speaker A: Yeah, that's one. Right, Right. Okay.
[00:22:49] Speaker C: So.
[00:22:51] Speaker B: No, no, no, we didn't make love over the jeans. That was over the jeans. I won't go any further than that. But so I think she's always, like, whenever we talk about comedy or female comedian, she's like, you know.
And truth be told, I don't find a lot of female comedians attractive.
Oh, what, is that a shot?
[00:23:12] Speaker A: Misogyny is. Is rolling?
[00:23:14] Speaker B: I said attractive.
[00:23:16] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:23:17] Speaker B: Oh, Jesus. You're gonna cut this out now, too? No, I don't find any male comedians attractive either. Oh.
[00:23:24] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. Well, we should have a whole debate for that.
[00:23:27] Speaker B: Matt Rife. He's handsome.
[00:23:28] Speaker A: We should have a whole debate episode. Or do we already cover it as whether attractive people should be allowed?
[00:23:35] Speaker B: I think you brought that up.
[00:23:36] Speaker A: Yeah. So anyway, Jerry's out.
[00:23:38] Speaker B: So here's. So forget me. My wife said, I've. And I wrote this down because I couldn't believe she said this. No woman comedian has ever been funny.
[00:23:48] Speaker A: Whoa.
[00:23:49] Speaker B: How about that? Straight from a woman's mouth. And I can verify she's a woman. My wife seen all our parts.
[00:23:55] Speaker A: Shocking.
[00:23:56] Speaker B: We got to get a woman through and through.
[00:23:58] Speaker A: Well, you. You had a. You. You should know that you had a pregnant through most of the early part of this century.
[00:24:04] Speaker B: Ye.
[00:24:06] Speaker A: We need to get her in and quiz her.
[00:24:08] Speaker B: I don't want her. I don't want worlds colliding in here and know anything about this. But, yeah, so.
And I don't want to say. I don't. I'm never going to say that. That I don't think female comedians are. What did she say? No woman comedian has ever been funny. I found them to be funny, but I might say that.
[00:24:28] Speaker A: Thanks for qualifying.
[00:24:30] Speaker B: Yeah, I don't want to bury the lead.
[00:24:32] Speaker A: You heard it her, folks. You heard it here. Women can be funny.
[00:24:37] Speaker B: Women.
[00:24:38] Speaker A: Donald confirmed that's that's my wife.
[00:24:40] Speaker C: That's the new name of the show.
[00:24:41] Speaker B: Women Can Be Funny.
Well, I don't want to bury the lead, but I might say she's the funniest woman to ever live.
[00:25:00] Speaker C: This is the earliest in the podcast you've ever heard.
[00:25:02] Speaker B: I can't help it. I gotta get it, gotta get it out.
[00:25:04] Speaker C: Claim somebody to be the funniest ever lived.
[00:25:06] Speaker B: I usually wait till halfway through.
No, I, I think she's. She was great.
Was she this great when she was around here?
[00:25:16] Speaker A: Well, like I say, she rocketed up the. You know, you started. You start in the gutter, right in the open mic gutter. And then you ascend.
[00:25:24] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:25:25] Speaker A: And she ascended, you know, on a rocket. Yeah, through the, through the, the comedy stratosphere.
[00:25:37] Speaker B: And that's the thing I like about this is when we watch comedian that I've. I don't know anything about. Right. Like no preconceived ideas or opinions about the person. I knew nothing about her and she. I mean, I was like this. So you can't see me, but I was like this. Watching this program.
[00:25:57] Speaker A: Like the picture on the COVID of.
[00:26:00] Speaker B: 40 year old Virginia.
[00:26:01] Speaker A: Yeah, Like a simpleton.
[00:26:03] Speaker B: Yeah, like a simpleton. Like this.
I just loved it.
[00:26:08] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:26:08] Speaker B: Yeah. All right. What do you think?
[00:26:11] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, I. You know what's kind of funny is the first time I watched it, I was just gonna watch the first 10 minutes and then I got hooked in, so I ended up watching the whole thing. Forgot to take notes. Then this morning I'm like, I don't have time to watch the whole bloody thing again.
So I'm spin. I'm like, okay, let me just get a bit inventory and it'll come back to me. So I'm spinning through, you know, three minutes, hit play. Three minutes, hit play. Just to get my bit inventory going. And I kept getting hooked into like, I don't know who it was. I was hitting it at the right time. But like my favorite bit of the whole lot was exactly where I hit it, where she's talking about where she was camping and she did. She faked a whole, like, argument between her and her husband in the tent. And he's just like, oh, I love that. Yeah, get to get to sleep, woman, but suck my dick first or whatever. And then she's just like, yeah, she's like, even when I invent a husband, I make him abusive or whatever.
And I just kept hitting things and I'm like, God, I'm gonna watch the whole fucking thing again.
[00:27:15] Speaker B: So you'd watched it already, the whole thing?
[00:27:17] Speaker A: Yeah, I was just like. But I forgot to take notes.
[00:27:20] Speaker B: Where did the 10 minute thing come from? Why did we want to watch the first 10 minutes? I never did when you guys were talking about it. But what was the point of watching the first 10 minutes?
[00:27:27] Speaker A: Because I had this pipe dream about getting her on to the show and I'm like, she can't come on the show if you hate it.
[00:27:35] Speaker B: Right, right, right.
[00:27:36] Speaker A: It's gonna be awkward. So we were gonna watch the first 10 minutes, determine whether. We determine whether we like. Yep, we like it. Okay, let's get Beth in and see if she would do an in, you know, do a thing with us.
[00:27:47] Speaker B: You know what, though? I think a comedian would be game to sit down and have, you know, talk with someone who hates comedy. Yeah.
A comedian of.
If anyone could take it.
If they've ascended to the. Wherever they've bombed a million times, they can take anybody's opinion. Don't you think?
[00:28:05] Speaker A: I told you my Hannibal story, maybe offline.
[00:28:08] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah.
[00:28:09] Speaker A: That's someone who's like, yeah, he didn't like that. Yeah, didn't like, you know, and I'm like, dude, you're in the stars, we're in the car. Like, let it go. I mean, no, I don't, I don't believe that at all. Most comedians.
[00:28:21] Speaker B: Yeah, it'll be an awkward set, wouldn't it? You know? Yeah. I don't find anything you say funny or I don't like anything you do.
Well, she won me over right away. We talked. We always talk about this at the beginning of the special. Right. It just starts, right. There's no bullshit treacle, any, you know, you know, fake getting pumped up to come out on stage or bit before the bit.
[00:28:42] Speaker A: What was it was date. It was just a panorama of Dayton.
[00:28:46] Speaker B: Yeah. This is a shot of Dayton and then boom, she comes out. No frills like that. Then she's on stage.
I like this outfit. Black shirt, black pants, black boots.
[00:28:57] Speaker A: Well, the boots are off. Point to me. They're too big. Sorry. If you ever do hear this, I, I have a thing about chunky boots.
[00:29:06] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:29:06] Speaker A: And she had really chunky boots.
[00:29:08] Speaker C: Yeah, the Doc Martens.
[00:29:10] Speaker A: No, not dm. Dms aren't like you talking like a knockoff Doc Martens. No, no, they're like a 4 inch thing on them.
[00:29:20] Speaker B: Well, Doc Martens has different styles. They don't have just the traditional. They got a thicker soul.
[00:29:25] Speaker A: I like plain black because it's, it's something you're meant to do when you. Comedy.
[00:29:29] Speaker B: Right.
[00:29:29] Speaker A: You know, we tell students in the class, like, don't come on with your amusing.
[00:29:35] Speaker B: You know, cabana wear.
[00:29:36] Speaker A: Yeah. Or, you know, the. You're the star, not the funny T shirt you want to wear.
Even, like, wearing a cool. What you think is a cool band.
[00:29:48] Speaker B: Oh, that's the worst.
[00:29:49] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:29:50] Speaker B: But, yeah, the cool band is worse than anything.
[00:29:52] Speaker A: And sports memorabilia.
[00:29:55] Speaker B: Like a sports team.
[00:29:56] Speaker A: Yeah.
Why would you wear a sports team on. On stage? I used to do it.
[00:30:01] Speaker B: What about a political shirt?
[00:30:02] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:30:05] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:30:05] Speaker A: I used to wear hockey jerseys on stage. Like Clerks dip.
[00:30:10] Speaker B: Yeah. Kevin Smith.
[00:30:12] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:30:13] Speaker B: Yeah. That's bad.
[00:30:14] Speaker A: It is bad.
[00:30:15] Speaker B: So I like that. I like. You know, it seems authentic and, you know.
Yeah. So I like that right away. No frills. And then.
Then I'm. I'm watching. And. And do you have the caption. We've talked about this with the captions, Right?
[00:30:34] Speaker C: We've talked about captions.
[00:30:35] Speaker B: You got the captions on while you're watching? Everybody watches.
[00:30:38] Speaker C: I can't do the. I don't understand it.
[00:30:40] Speaker B: Yeah, it's just I don't even know how to get it off the tv.
[00:30:42] Speaker C: Why do you want to.
[00:30:43] Speaker B: My kids put it on. I don't know how to get it off. So now I have to watch Everything.
[00:30:46] Speaker C: With the caption ruins the delivery.
[00:30:48] Speaker B: I'm watching the words before the delivery. Yeah, yeah, it does ruin their delivery. But in the captions on this special, and I don't know who approves these captions, but it keeps saying, like, she would say something, and then in a parenthetical, it'll say, sucks teeth sucking tea. So you did watch.
[00:31:04] Speaker C: Well, I saw. Yeah, that's right. Because I watched it. I watched the 20 minutes that I saw of it. I watched in between during the intermission of a hockey game weeks ago when we were originally gonna do this. And this was over at Borky's Place, where she has the captions on her tv.
Cause her roommate has a Netflix account. And I don't. Which is why I couldn't finish it. But, yeah, the captions are on. And I was trying. I always try my best not to read the captions. I try to ignore them as much as possible. However, sometimes your eye wanders down there. And it did wander down two or three times when it says sucks teeth. And I thought it was the weirdest thing.
[00:31:35] Speaker B: Yeah.
Throughout, like, every pause, it'll say, sucks tea.
[00:31:40] Speaker C: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:31:41] Speaker B: And that should have been the name of the special.
[00:31:43] Speaker C: I forgot all about this. And I was really Selling. I was hoping we were able to interview her because that was the first. That was the one thing I want to ask about is.
[00:31:50] Speaker A: Yeah, all right, we. I got a string of technical questions if we can ever get anybody.
[00:31:55] Speaker C: Can you put the. Sucks.
[00:31:56] Speaker B: Did she have sucks teeth?
[00:31:58] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:31:59] Speaker B: That should have been the name of the special.
[00:32:00] Speaker C: And she wasn't really. It's not like she was just making like a regular noise. Well, she would go, yeah, something like that. Right.
[00:32:06] Speaker B: Almost like a tisk.
[00:32:07] Speaker C: But the description makes it sound like she was like, I don't want. Even. I don't want to do it, you know, but like some like, gross sucking your teeth noise.
[00:32:14] Speaker B: Yeah, the sucking of the teeth is gross. And whenever I hear sucking of sucking teeth, I think of the episode of Sanford and Son. You remember the episode of Sanford and Son where Grady has to sleep in the bed with Red Fox?
Sanford and Grady's sucking his teeth all night like this.
[00:32:33] Speaker A: I only ever watched the real version of that show, which is the English original.
[00:32:38] Speaker B: Oh, there is. That's a derivative of English.
No, I didn't.
[00:32:43] Speaker C: What's it called?
[00:32:43] Speaker A: Steptoe and Son. It's the English original and it is like a legendary good one. And the.
The. The guy. The son.
The guy who played the old man really was just this disheveled, gross looking old man.
[00:33:03] Speaker B: God damn.
[00:33:04] Speaker A: It was his name. And the. The son always used to say to him, you dirty old man.
Whatever. He did, like.
[00:33:13] Speaker B: Because he's a perv.
[00:33:15] Speaker A: No, just because he was, like, really gross. He had this like, threadbare jumper on.
[00:33:19] Speaker B: And he was a junkyard guy.
[00:33:21] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:33:24] Speaker B: Oh, how about that? You're too young for Sanford.
[00:33:27] Speaker C: I know what it is.
[00:33:28] Speaker B: Yeah. Well, anyway. Sucking teeth.
[00:33:30] Speaker A: Yeah, well, the original Steptoe and Son, he could take his teeth out. I think he does, like, often because, you know.
[00:33:39] Speaker B: Anyway, well, maybe we'll review that next week. Steptoe and Son. Yeah, but. Yeah, so I thought that was weird. And then. But the other thing I did like about her, how she comes out, she's drinking tea. How many comedians do you see drinking tea? I like that.
[00:33:55] Speaker A: You know, I didn't really know.
[00:33:57] Speaker C: I don't think she had a hot.
[00:33:58] Speaker B: Tea with the tea bag thing hanging out of the mug.
[00:34:01] Speaker A: Wait, what was Sandler drinking? He had a thing.
[00:34:04] Speaker B: Yeah, he had like a Starbucks coffee.
[00:34:06] Speaker A: Was it?
[00:34:07] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. And the paper cup. Yeah, yeah. That we did. We talked about that, too.
So immediately I like, you know, you can win for. I don't know if this is true for everybody, but, like, you can win or lose somebody right away. Right. Just what you're wearing. How, you know, how the thing intros, you know, all that stuff. The set, and I thought the set was just, you know, nice and plain. That's all it is. Stand up is, as I don't need to explain to you, is a.
Just a stage and a stool and a mic, no frills. Right.
That's it.
[00:34:42] Speaker A: A brick wall.
[00:34:44] Speaker B: A brick wall, preferably. Yeah, yeah.
With a sign says Dick Doherty's Comedy Ball behind it.
So. Yeah. So that I liked. And then she, you know, her bits about aging. She starts off with that aging bit and talking about how she's gonna be the only person la to, you know, age. And so that's brilliant. And, like, she's connecting. She's real.
[00:35:05] Speaker A: The first joke that really hits for me is the one which is like, it's. It's like one of those mirrors that just is like a buffed sheet of metal. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:35:16] Speaker B: Because of her eyesight.
[00:35:17] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:35:19] Speaker B: How old of a woman is Beth Stelling? 40s?
[00:35:24] Speaker A: No, I think maybe late 30s, I think.
[00:35:27] Speaker B: Okay.
And so her act kind of rolls through some of the aging stuff. Her family stuff, her sisters, her mother.
[00:35:37] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:35:38] Speaker B: Her dad, which the bits about her dad is like, the star of the show.
[00:35:41] Speaker C: Right.
[00:35:41] Speaker B: Like, seems like she. She's going to go down the road of, like, have no dad, but she really does have a dad and does have this kind of funny relationship with him.
[00:35:51] Speaker A: Sign spinner.
[00:35:53] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, for real. I love that line where she says, my dad moved to Orlando to be an actor, which is not really where you go to be an actor.
But then about halfway, and I paused it, like, right after. See, like, when is she switching gears here? Then she starts to get dirty. Right. So she stays clean, really pretty clean for the first half hour. And then the second half, that's where.
[00:36:22] Speaker A: She really wins the o' Donnell vote.
[00:36:24] Speaker B: Then she wins me over even more by going blue.
But she shows the ability to.
[00:36:30] Speaker A: To.
[00:36:30] Speaker B: To be clean. I'm sure she could do a clean hour, right?
[00:36:34] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:36:35] Speaker B: Or she could do a dirty hour and she gives you a little both, which is really admirable to me, you know, giving. Giving people a little of both.
[00:36:44] Speaker A: Yeah, she. She always throws that little spice in there. She's got this really good sly grin that she uses judiciously as well. When she do something like, you know.
[00:36:54] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:36:55] Speaker A: There's a bit.
There's a bit where she's talking about the water bra and she's go. She's talking about, well, if you're in a marathon at one of those water stations and you could have some water. And then she just leans in with a grin and goes, oh, you can touch my tits. You remember that?
[00:37:13] Speaker B: Yeah.
I didn't really understand Genius. You think that was. I don't really get it. Like somebody in a marathon is going to go drink water or else touch her water bra.
[00:37:25] Speaker A: No, she was saying that the premise is a guy is looking for. For tits and you got a water bra on. They. You can't give a guy who's looking for tit. I keep saying, who's looking for.
[00:37:37] Speaker B: Who's run a marathon looking for tits.
[00:37:39] Speaker A: No, in the original setup to the joke, she's saying, you know, you can't have a water bra because a guy's looking for tits and you're gonna give him water. She goes, that, that just doesn't work. She goes, it might work if it was the other way around.
[00:37:53] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's good.
[00:37:54] Speaker A: And then she does the marathon thing, which just had me laughing my ass off because it was like she just pantomimed it really well with the whisper and, and stuff.
[00:38:04] Speaker B: Yeah, you do it better than. Than she does. I think the way she lost me in the bit.
[00:38:10] Speaker A: But I might have explained a bit better. But when she does that, that whisper pantomime that was. Had me laughing my ass off.
[00:38:18] Speaker B: Yeah. I actually had some laugh out loud moments during this. Right. Alone in my home watching this and laughing out loud and grinning the whole time. How about you, Big C?
[00:38:29] Speaker C: Yeah, I mean.
[00:38:30] Speaker B: Oh, you didn't watch.
[00:38:31] Speaker C: Well, I saw the 20 minutes of it, but it did, it grabbed me right away. And I got to tell you, I was a little disappointed that the hockey game was starting again and I had to turn back to it.
[00:38:39] Speaker B: Oh, okay.
[00:38:41] Speaker A: Where did you get up to? Did you get up to like the frat party thing or. Probably not even.
[00:38:46] Speaker C: I don't remember. This is, I mean, this is three plus weeks ago.
[00:38:49] Speaker B: Okay. I love the, about the raccoons, right? Like the whole idea, the, the guys feeding all these raccoons. She, I mean, she milked that for 15 minutes. I feel like, well, that's 15 that.
[00:39:01] Speaker A: You gotta, you get something like that, you gotta take it all the way.
[00:39:05] Speaker B: And I don't have an exit enough examples documented here. But she really paints a picture, right? Like what the information she gives you is in each bit or in each setup, in each story. She's really a storyteller. I don't know if it's cliche to say they're storytellers, but she's telling stories about her family and her life very naturally. And the details she gives you about things are what for me really makes it brilliant or just so great. Like when she talks about the Geo, the Geo car, the Geo, like I'm assuming GEO tracker. Do you remember that car? Yeah, yeah, right. Being like a roller skate. Like those details, you know, about her, you know, what we are, what we talked about before we came on about you asked me all these details, right. About the story you were telling me out outside. Right. Like you don't want the details. Right. The details are important. But for me the details in a, in a performer, in art are what matters. Right. Like that really does make it for me.
[00:40:05] Speaker A: Yeah, no, I agree with that. In an art, the art of an amazing, like there's good jokes and there's like amazing jokes. And the amazing jokes always have a detail or a turn of phrase in them that just like nails you. Like. I was talking about, you know, she made the joke about like a buffed sheet of metal. Yeah, yeah, like that you could just say, oh yeah, you know, one of those mirrors that you could barely see.
[00:40:33] Speaker B: Yeah. But no, you buff sheet of metal.
[00:40:36] Speaker A: You, you actually thought about it and said it and you know, like that.
[00:40:41] Speaker C: One got me too.
[00:40:41] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:40:42] Speaker C: That was like the perfect description. I like, right away I knew exactly what she was talking. Like I could see it.
[00:40:47] Speaker A: You know, you go in those because we, we have a piece of that in the basement. And I was like, am I gonna have to break this shit out when mirrors were breaking and stuff? I'm like, yeah, yeah. Because if you in a really rough ass bar, they can't put mirrors in there because the chimps are just breaking the time.
[00:41:05] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:41:06] Speaker A: So they put that shitty plastic stuff.
[00:41:08] Speaker B: In which you can't even see yourself.
[00:41:10] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:41:11] Speaker B: Have nothing. It doesn't do anything.
[00:41:13] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:41:13] Speaker B: Be funny if someone had one of those in their home, you know, had that puff piece of metal in there.
[00:41:19] Speaker A: What the fuck?
[00:41:20] Speaker C: They always look like shit everywhere they go.
[00:41:21] Speaker B: Yeah. Like if somebody has a nice home but then you know their bathroom and they've made it into like a gas station bathroom, that'd be kind of funny.
So yeah. So I, so when she, she gets dirty and it, you know, I just think it's not super dirty, but it all works, you know, and then she starts also using her voices and her body more. Right. To do more physical comedy and do some kind of character type stuff. So you really get.
And this is why I Think she's so good. You get, you get like five comedians for the price of one. And in here, right. She's that good. I think she could be any one of those. But just parsing it out and the five different styles, you know, it's like a teacher, right?
A teacher, a really good teacher knows that the students in their class learn in five different ways. And so they teach throughout a class period five different styles, right. So that they can hit each one. Right?
And that's, that's craft. That's the craft of teaching. And she's got.
Whether she realizes it or not, she's really kind of, I feel like mastered that craft of delivering different styles. Right. Like her. The way she. When she. And this is, I thought was her best segment of Bits was about the birth control, right. When she talked about all the different birth controls and drills down into. I didn't even know the names of these things he has or. Why would I, you know, my wife's baron at this point, but she doesn't need that. But Lauren Fay and then goes into the details. Each one reads the, the side effects and then does these crazy maniacal, you know, split personality characters, right. Like you don't see any of that until the last quarter of the. Of the special, right. Like that ability to do those kind of things. And so.
Yeah, I mean, I just think she's brilliant.
[00:43:20] Speaker A: Okay.
[00:43:22] Speaker B: Well, that's it. What the fuck am I. I don't need you.
I could just sit here.
[00:43:26] Speaker A: What for all. Any.
[00:43:28] Speaker B: Don't you have any deeper thoughts?
[00:43:30] Speaker A: No. I mean, someone I saw develop as a comedian, I knew she was great. So I suggested you. And then, and then everyone liked it.
[00:43:37] Speaker B: So imagine you, you know, you're watching a show, a show critique something, right? Two guys, yeah. Reviewing movies and one guy goes on and on, right? About the details and things of the movie and the scene and the acting and the director shots and cinematography. And then they go to the next guy on the show, he goes, yeah, it's good.
That's you.
[00:43:57] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:43:58] Speaker B: In this program I always, I talk about all the. And then you go, yeah, she's good too. And then dead air.
[00:44:05] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:44:06] Speaker B: I always had this last year at the Ling Lodge you could take about how to do a podcast. They like would teach you, like how.
[00:44:11] Speaker A: To talk to teach one way he's talking about it.
[00:44:15] Speaker C: Oh, I.
[00:44:15] Speaker B: That.
[00:44:15] Speaker C: I've never sign him up. Never talked about doing that.
Bill, I think you should teach it.
[00:44:22] Speaker A: If I, if you say to me, what do I think about. I'm just Gonna keep telling you the favorite bits.
[00:44:28] Speaker B: Yeah, but this is kind of like you, like, as a person, you want.
[00:44:32] Speaker A: Me to expound on why Beth is good?
Why Beth is good.
[00:44:36] Speaker B: I just. Yeah.
[00:44:37] Speaker A: His attention to detail.
[00:44:39] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. Give me examples.
[00:44:43] Speaker A: When she says, we put on Billy Elliot. That's my tape. I've never seen the end of the movie, though.
[00:44:50] Speaker B: Brilliant.
[00:44:50] Speaker A: Yeah. And it's an attention to detail, isn't it? And the mean husband thing we talked about in the tent, she does it, and then she ends on the anecdote about the charity gig with this brilliant line.
My dad would be happy because I. I bombed at a Planned Parenthood. Right?
[00:45:10] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:45:11] Speaker A: I mean, it's just attention. That's what makes any good comedian, is really good attention to detail. Like, okay, how do I do this line? Like, how do I end with this? How do I drive the nail home, so to speak.
[00:45:31] Speaker B: Yeah. But somebody can also be really good at that, at the craft, and you just still don't like them. And that's what I'm realizing as we do more of these. Right. And we talk about more types of comedy, it's like, somebody can be brilliant, like, to go back to Maria Bamford, who is.
Is best selling on speed. Right. Or, like, even more so in terms of the detail, but it's too much for me. Right. And so comedy, we can break it down 80 different ways from Sunday, but, like, comedy is just like food. Right. Like, I like the way that tastes. Right. And another person have no appreciation for that. Right.
But it can be considered great, you know, cuisine or whatever. Right.
So should we stop doing the show? Because there's no. Really no point. Because all we're doing is doing is talking about taste. Right.
[00:46:27] Speaker A: Well, he's talking about. Do we talk more analyzing the craft?
[00:46:32] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, we can break down the craft. Right. But ultimately comes down to, you know, what. What.
What your taste is.
[00:46:42] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:46:42] Speaker B: I mean, I like dirty comedy, but I don't just like dirty comedy. Right. But, you know.
[00:46:48] Speaker A: Yeah.
[00:46:48] Speaker B: You like Maria Bamford a lot. Yeah, I like Beth Stelling a lot. Right.
[00:46:54] Speaker A: I like both of them.
[00:46:55] Speaker B: They're both craftsmen. Yeah. Can I say craftsman? I have to say craftswoman.
I don't foul here.
[00:47:02] Speaker C: I don't know the rules.
[00:47:04] Speaker B: They're both craftspeople, but.
[00:47:07] Speaker C: But you were just saying how you were going on for a while, and then Mark had very little rebuttal. But then when you pushed him, Mark had something.
[00:47:14] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:47:15] Speaker C: Like something to say about the details and some, you know, input that mattered. So I think if you if you guys can find that flow.
This is the comedy podcast lesson that I am now teaching at the Lincoln Lodge.
[00:47:28] Speaker B: Yes.
[00:47:29] Speaker A: All right.
[00:47:30] Speaker C: Yeah, it begins right now. It just. It just started a sentence ago.
[00:47:35] Speaker B: Yeah. I feel like, you know, like you're like. We're like a husband and wife, right? We're out to dinner, and the wife talks for, like, five straight minutes, and you sit there and you. You watch her talk and everything. And then once she runs out of steam, then there's.
[00:47:51] Speaker A: I mentioned.
[00:47:52] Speaker B: There's a pause in the air, and then you go, yeah, that's good. Yeah. And then we just sit there.
[00:47:58] Speaker A: Maybe that's me. Maybe I'm empty.
[00:48:00] Speaker B: You're empty inside.
[00:48:01] Speaker C: But you're not, because then you had something. You had, like, a good, like, three and a half minutes of comment.
[00:48:06] Speaker B: Yeah, I think I. Yeah, I think our. What our relationship needs is me berating you more, poking the bear. Just poking you until you bleed.
[00:48:18] Speaker C: You've kind of.
[00:48:18] Speaker B: Yeah, you've kind of rage.
[00:48:21] Speaker C: You've kind of let up on that lately. There used to be a lot more, I feel like. Yeah.
Actually should have seen this back in the day. And on Mark's side, too. He hasn't called you a nihilist all day.
[00:48:31] Speaker B: He did.
[00:48:31] Speaker A: No, I did.
[00:48:31] Speaker C: Oh. Before I got here.
[00:48:32] Speaker A: I like to get that one in early.
[00:48:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah.
[00:48:34] Speaker A: It's kind of my.
[00:48:35] Speaker B: Knows it bothers me.
[00:48:36] Speaker C: Maybe that's getting old then. You know, Maybe it's a couple of different things to bug each other.
[00:48:41] Speaker A: Nihilist is my Seinfeld. Seinfeld. Superman.
You know what I mean?
[00:48:46] Speaker B: Kryptonite.
[00:48:47] Speaker A: I'm just gonna.
[00:48:48] Speaker B: What? Kryptonite.
[00:48:49] Speaker C: Kryptonite.
[00:48:50] Speaker B: It's my kryptonite. When you call me a nihilist, what are you talking about?
[00:48:54] Speaker A: Every Seinfeld episode had a Superman placed in the frame reference in it or placed in.
[00:49:01] Speaker B: Oh, it did. For real.
[00:49:03] Speaker A: For fuck's sake.
[00:49:04] Speaker B: I love Seinfeld.
[00:49:06] Speaker C: There's a Superman statuette.
[00:49:09] Speaker B: Yeah. There's a picture of the little.
[00:49:11] Speaker C: There's always at least one shot of the apartment.
[00:49:13] Speaker B: I know he talks about a lot.
[00:49:14] Speaker A: That's, like one of the most famous things about Seinfeld.
Always jammed in, oh, Easter eggs. That's the thing.
[00:49:20] Speaker C: I've never heard that. And I've been watching.
[00:49:21] Speaker B: I've never heard that.
[00:49:22] Speaker C: I've been watching Seinfeld. I've seen every Seinfeld episode a million times, and I've never heard that he references Superman in every episode.
[00:49:30] Speaker B: I went to the third to last taping did you really? Yeah, I was there and it was when I was working for Paramount and I. I got to sit in the living room and all that. Walk around the set. That's a dream, right? When it was.
[00:49:45] Speaker A: I bet it's boring as hell when you're actually watching it though, right? They keep stopping, starting.
[00:49:49] Speaker B: Yeah, it wasn't that. It was kind of cool to see and how the sausage is made, but. Yeah, you're been to a taping of a sitcom?
[00:49:57] Speaker A: No, you know what? I think I've only.
I went to a recording of a special at the Metro and it was like, okay, the bars cut off.
You can't drink during the show. In case you drop the goddamn bottle, you better not be getting up and going to the bathroom. Blah, blah, blah, blah, you know? And I was like, yeah, this is.
[00:50:15] Speaker B: Yeah, kind of sucks.
[00:50:19] Speaker C: I saw Conan o' Brien once. I saw a taping of that and the original one, the NBC. I was in New York and it was free. Just walked in. Yeah, it was great.
Again, like you were saying, it was cool watching, like how they set everything up off camera while he's kind of talking over here.
Then, you know, the commercial break. He did the whole warm up the crowd thing and everything. Yeah, yeah, this. Like I said before he went to. Was it tbs?
[00:50:46] Speaker B: Is that the. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm gonna do this now.
From now on when if you ever start talking about something, I'm. And then you stop. I'm just gonna. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:51:04] Speaker A: But I can add it to mouth.
[00:51:05] Speaker B: I wonder if you're actually listening. Maybe that's it. You're not listening to me.
[00:51:09] Speaker A: Yeah, honestly, I do listen to people. Don't think I listen because I have such an unemotional response to them.
[00:51:15] Speaker B: Very dirty eyes. You got dirty eyes like. Like you're looking like somebody's gonna come in.
[00:51:21] Speaker A: I find eye contact very hard to sustain.
[00:51:24] Speaker B: Like some, like dogs. Dogs don't like to make eye contact. Really?
[00:51:28] Speaker A: Dogs do. Some cats. Cats don't.
Cat eye contact is aggression. Oh, dogs, I think, like it.
[00:51:37] Speaker B: Well, their dogs, I think are more submissive. So when you look at them, they would look away.
[00:51:44] Speaker C: How do they know? How do they know looking in the eyes? You know, humans, we know that we can. We can sense the emotion of another human or like, you know, the feeling of somebody else by reading their eyes. But how does a dog know to look at you in the eyes?
[00:51:57] Speaker B: I don't know.
[00:51:57] Speaker C: I can ask my iPhone 7.
[00:51:58] Speaker A: Yeah, one of our cats, when we first got him, wouldn't look you in the eye. But then he started doing it and he would stare at you the whole bloody time.
[00:52:08] Speaker B: Oh, that's kind of creepy.
[00:52:09] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:52:10] Speaker B: Staring into your soul.
[00:52:12] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. No, it's good, actually. He's a good lad. But, yeah, cats don't. You shouldn't stare at a cat's eyes because they find that's an act of aggression in cat dumb.
[00:52:23] Speaker B: I was dating a gal in college and staying in her place and she had a cat and the cat didn't care for me, I don't think, because it would come up to the foot. Under the. To the foot of the bed and come under the covers and start clawing at my feet.
[00:52:37] Speaker C: Oh, that's the worst.
[00:52:39] Speaker B: After I'd made love to the scale.
[00:52:41] Speaker C: She grouted some tile.
[00:52:43] Speaker B: Yeah, after I grouted her tile.
[00:52:46] Speaker A: Great callback.
[00:52:48] Speaker B: No callbacks in this program.
[00:52:51] Speaker A: No.
[00:52:51] Speaker B: Right, And I appreciate that.
[00:52:53] Speaker A: The callback is hacked now. You like the callback? Yeah, now you've made me now. Okay, go, go do it.
[00:52:59] Speaker B: You're having a visceral reaction.
[00:53:00] Speaker A: Not right now.
[00:53:02] Speaker B: Well, no, I think some callbacks are great, but like, Stuart Lee did good ones. But a lot of them, you can tell, it's just bad.
[00:53:08] Speaker A: You think callbacks are forced most of the time?
[00:53:11] Speaker B: A lot of times, yeah. They build them in.
[00:53:14] Speaker A: There was an English comedian called Harry Hill whose entire act.
[00:53:18] Speaker B: Any relation to Benny?
[00:53:19] Speaker A: No.
Harry Hill's entire act is a bunch of callbacks woven together.
[00:53:28] Speaker B: How can it be a callback if the act is the callback?
[00:53:31] Speaker A: He starts off with a few basic references and then just starts like this. It's like a noodle of just callback after callback after callback.
[00:53:40] Speaker B: Rapid fire callback being.
[00:53:41] Speaker A: It was amazing.
[00:53:43] Speaker B: Harry Hill still working today?
[00:53:45] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, I saw him do.
I saw him at Leicester University in 1992, and the guy who opened for him.
No shit. His entire act was impersonating the sounds of guns.
[00:54:03] Speaker B: Which, like Michael Winslow from Police Academy.
[00:54:05] Speaker A: Yeah, very Winslow esque. But like, just all gone. Like. He literally had 10 minutes where he would be like, this is me. No act.
[00:54:13] Speaker B: That was just the act.
[00:54:14] Speaker A: This is me getting an AK47 out of it like that. And he.
[00:54:22] Speaker B: That's pretty good.
[00:54:23] Speaker A: And he didn't bomb.
[00:54:24] Speaker C: I wonder. I wonder what the closed captioning looked like for that.
[00:54:26] Speaker B: Yeah, sucks teeth.
[00:54:29] Speaker A: Callback. Christian McCammy, he's the king of the callback.
[00:54:32] Speaker C: King of the callback.
[00:54:33] Speaker A: I gotta Google that guy, because I bet you people will be like, this is Harry Hill.
[00:54:37] Speaker B: Or this is Somebody else?
[00:54:37] Speaker A: No, that was the guy who opened for Harry Hill.
So it was 10 minutes of just gun sound effects.
[00:54:45] Speaker B: Well, yeah.
[00:54:46] Speaker A: Were you and me gonna see Winslow one time?
[00:54:49] Speaker B: I think he was hanging on by a thread, and then I think he's done now.
[00:54:52] Speaker A: I remember one time I was going to see him, they canceled it last minute, and I got six free zickets. Do you remember them?
[00:55:01] Speaker B: Zandy's tickets?
[00:55:03] Speaker A: Yeah. A free ticket was a zicket, and I still got him in a draw somewhere.
[00:55:09] Speaker B: I think they're good.
[00:55:10] Speaker A: Yeah. We should rock up.
[00:55:11] Speaker B: Let's go to Zany's. Let's pop into Zany.
[00:55:13] Speaker A: Should rock up with the zickets.
[00:55:14] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:55:15] Speaker A: So is Winslow back yet? It was a sudden cancel.
[00:55:18] Speaker B: Yes. I was supposed to see Michael Winslow a while back, but got canceled. I wonder if he's coming back or I can cash in these.
[00:55:26] Speaker A: I got Bobcat's phone number. I call him and say, you still in contact with Winzo?
[00:55:31] Speaker B: Yeah. I don't know. Were they buddies? He probably didn't get that far.
[00:55:34] Speaker A: I don't know.
[00:55:35] Speaker B: So who.
[00:55:36] Speaker A: Oh, the other guy was Kazarinsky, and he still bodies with Kazarinski for sure.
[00:55:41] Speaker B: Kazarinski's here, isn't he?
[00:55:42] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, we just lost half of the. The comedy royalty of Chicago, didn't we? With George Wendt.
[00:55:49] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:55:50] Speaker A: So we're down to just Kazarinsky now.
[00:55:52] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. Now there's got to be more.
[00:55:55] Speaker A: I don't think.
[00:55:58] Speaker B: Dan Stankos.
[00:56:00] Speaker A: No, I mean, I'm talking like legendary.
[00:56:02] Speaker B: You could say Larry Reeb.
[00:56:06] Speaker A: Who'S a legendary Chicago comedy person. Oh, still in Chicago.
[00:56:15] Speaker B: Chris Farley.
I mean, is he buried in Chicago?
That was a little bad. I can't. I don't.
[00:56:22] Speaker A: If one of the. Well, they're not comedy, but one of the Cusacks still lives here, right?
[00:56:27] Speaker B: Joan. I used to babysit for Joan Cusack.
[00:56:30] Speaker A: What?
[00:56:30] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
[00:56:32] Speaker A: How did that. What did you hide that light?
[00:56:34] Speaker B: Oh, I babysat for her and.
Yeah, for quite a while.
[00:56:39] Speaker A: So we're tight.
[00:56:40] Speaker B: Want to get her in here.
[00:56:41] Speaker A: You got to get John Cusack. I want to ask about.
What's the film where she plays the. On the friend of the bride.
[00:56:50] Speaker B: Oh, Working Girl.
[00:56:53] Speaker A: She's completely like loony scatty brain woman.
[00:56:56] Speaker B: Well, she was nominated for Working Girl, I think supporting actress.
Not father. Not Runaway Bride. Is it Runaway Bride? Yeah, maybe it is with. With. I don't know.
[00:57:12] Speaker A: He's about me not taking an interest. You babies, you babysit in this woman. You can't even be bothered to ask her about her most famous movie role.
You just were like, oh, where'd you keep the biscuits?
[00:57:25] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[00:57:28] Speaker A: Can I have some soda? Where'd you keep the biscuits?
[00:57:31] Speaker B: Basically, Yeah. I didn't want to pry.
[00:57:34] Speaker A: Not.
[00:57:35] Speaker B: What was it like, star struck around her, you know?
[00:57:37] Speaker A: No, you wouldn't. You wouldn't go. What was it like working with Kevin Klein? Is he a genius?
[00:57:42] Speaker B: No, it just didn't feel.
Feel comfortable asking those kind of questions.
[00:57:50] Speaker A: All right, well, the two week break, we come back recharged.
[00:57:54] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah. Well, Christian, what are we going to be watching over this break? You can watch this on the plane.
[00:57:59] Speaker C: Yeah.
[00:58:01] Speaker B: Can you watch video on that iPhone 7?
[00:58:03] Speaker C: Yeah. Yes, surprisingly.
[00:58:05] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:58:05] Speaker C: It works.
We will be watching for the next one. We will be watching the 1995 HBO special, Dana Carvey's Critics Choice.
[00:58:16] Speaker B: I don't know if I've seen that, but I love Carvey.
[00:58:20] Speaker A: Back to the 90s, and I love the 90s.
We dipped our toe briefly in the 21st century, but we're back in the 90s.
[00:58:28] Speaker C: I don't know if you notice, I got a whole cycle thing going on here. You know, I do this in order. It's thought out some way. Yes, it is. There is some method to the madness. And I'll tell you another thing.
If. If you haven't seen it. Have you seen.
Oh, I'm gonna forget the name of it. The.
Oh, God damn. It's a Dana Carvey. It's. It's a documentary about the Dana Carvey show.
[00:58:51] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. How it tanks.
[00:58:53] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, I've seen that. Have you seen that?
[00:58:55] Speaker B: Yeah.
[00:58:55] Speaker C: I highly recommend it. It's. I've watched it multiple times.
[00:58:59] Speaker B: I think it's Carvey's kind of a nihilist.
[00:59:01] Speaker A: I like.
To me, the actual art isn't as interesting anymore as the.
The producers, the people who drive it and make it.
[00:59:11] Speaker B: That's more interesting to you?
[00:59:12] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah.
[00:59:13] Speaker B: How something gets on, gets up.
[00:59:14] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, yeah. The story behind, I mean, you know, the. The actual art is just disposable fluff, but the creation of it. Holy crap.
[00:59:24] Speaker C: That's. That's the thing with. It's Too Funny to Fail is the name, by the way. But that the. The amount of famous people, the amount of people that went on to be just huge names that were involved in this catastrophe and them fumbling around of how to make it work and never being able to do it, and some of the ideas they had, like, for instance, one episode, because Seinfeld Was just beating them in the. In the ratings so bad. They just had the. The shot started from the beginning of the Dana Carvey show from behind a couch or the family sitting on the couch watching Seinfeld and slowly zoomed in onto the episode of Seinfeld. And that was that episode of the Dana Carvey show.
[01:00:03] Speaker B: Great.
[01:00:04] Speaker A: You wouldn't even get that past. Like, it's.
[01:00:07] Speaker C: That's just it. It was like they. They were just like the right time, right place, right gang of goofballs that the network let them do it until they said no more.
[01:00:14] Speaker B: Yeah, that's great.
[01:00:16] Speaker A: All right.
[01:00:17] Speaker B: All right. Well, what have we learned here today?
We learned that you don't listen. There's one.
Christian's got an iPhone 7.
Hey. Right? What? What?
[01:00:30] Speaker C: Wait, who said I didn't listen?
[01:00:33] Speaker B: Christian has an iPhone 7. My wife said no woman comedian has ever been funny. And I think shocking. I think I might take her out next weekend to the den. I know, like, the lion's den to see Beth Stelling in one of her shows. And maybe we can change her mind.
[01:00:55] Speaker A: I think you're in. You're not thinking, though, are you? Say that. No, you're right, because you're going to be like, I want to go physically see this woman.
[01:01:04] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:01:05] Speaker A: That. You basically accused me of wanting the shag.
[01:01:08] Speaker C: I think it's a great.
[01:01:09] Speaker B: Who wants a shagger? You.
[01:01:10] Speaker A: No. You said your Mrs. Was looking at you.
Now you're being like heck. And I get as physically close to her as possible.
[01:01:17] Speaker C: I don't see what could go wrong.
[01:01:22] Speaker A: Oh, my God. The long car ride home.
[01:01:24] Speaker B: Yeah. It's a bad idea.
But I think Beth Stilling proves that my wife is wrong.
[01:01:31] Speaker A: Yep.
[01:01:32] Speaker B: So we're giving her two big toes up.
What do we say here on the show? She.
[01:01:39] Speaker A: This is special.
[01:01:41] Speaker B: Isn't that special? Yes. I don't know what we can.
[01:01:44] Speaker A: This is special is what we say.
[01:01:46] Speaker B: This is special.
This is a special one.
[01:01:48] Speaker C: Have we said that one is not special so far? Ever since we changed Gallagher.
[01:01:51] Speaker B: Christ.
[01:01:51] Speaker C: Oh, yeah, that was bad.
I don't even think we said not special, though. I think we all just kind of unanimous, unanimously said we don't like it.
[01:01:59] Speaker B: Yeah.
[01:01:59] Speaker C: I don't think we've actually said the words.
[01:02:03] Speaker B: Copyright problems. We will get a cease and desist from Carby's attorneys.
[01:02:08] Speaker A: Yep.
[01:02:09] Speaker B: All right, friends, Have a good trip.
[01:02:11] Speaker C: Thank you very much.
[01:02:11] Speaker B: Bring me back something.
[01:02:12] Speaker A: I think this is our longest ever episode. But that being said, I might. Chuck.
[01:02:16] Speaker B: Oh, I gotta go.
[01:02:17] Speaker A: I might cut large chunks out of it, so.
[01:02:20] Speaker C: Oh, there's. Yeah, there's a couple there.
[01:02:21] Speaker B: I gotta go.
[01:02:21] Speaker C: I gotta go.
[01:02:22] Speaker B: Bye.
[01:02:22] Speaker A: Okay.
