Transcript
00:00:30So the beginning of comedy shows can be kind of weird sometimes because you don't know
00:00:43if it'll be funny.
00:00:44So, I mean, if it's not, it could just be weird and sad and tragic.
00:00:52Hopefully it's not, but...
00:00:54My friend, before his shows, he's a musician.
00:01:00He gathers the whole band and they pray.
00:01:03And I was backstage at one of his shows and I was just stealing granola bars for later.
00:01:08And then he looked at me and he's like, Kevin, will you lead us in prayer?
00:01:11And I was like, like now?
00:01:13He's like, yeah.
00:01:13I was like, uh, yeah, God, hey, I pray that the audience enjoys the show and the band
00:01:21does a good job and I pray that you have a good time.
00:01:25And my friend looked at me and he was like, you just prayed God would have a good time?
00:01:31Then he walked on stage and then I went out to watch the show and my parents were there.
00:01:35They're like, how's the band?
00:01:37And I was like, they made fun of my prayer.
00:01:40And I told my mom what I said.
00:01:42And moms always take their son's side.
00:01:43She's like, well, I think that it's nice that you were thinking about God's feelings.
00:01:50So, you know, in honor of that, I'm, you know, everyone bow their heads, please.
00:01:54Close your eyes.
00:01:56You know, God, I pray that the audience enjoys the show and finds it funny.
00:02:01You know, I pray that I'm funny.
00:02:03That's important for a comedy show, but more important than anything, you know, you got
00:02:08a lot of stuff on your plate, punishing people and rewarding people.
00:02:12Kick back, relax, and have a great time tonight, okay?
00:02:17Amen.
00:02:21Yeah.
00:02:22Is that the first comedy show you've been to that started with a prayer?
00:02:25I think, uh, yeah.
00:02:28Uh, did anybody get spanked growing up?
00:02:30Yeah, yeah.
00:02:32I, uh, I got spanked with a paddle growing up.
00:02:35That was our, that, that, and it's weird because I feel like in the 50s, they just beat the shit
00:02:40out of kids.
00:02:41They just, a belt, anything that was around, they'd be like, blah, shut up, right?
00:02:44And now, no one gets spanked.
00:02:47I lived in this transitional period where we were spanked with a paddle that had a cute little
00:02:52name.
00:02:54Ours was called the Attitude Adjuster.
00:02:56If we got in trouble, my dad would be like, we're going to get the Attitude Adjuster, and
00:03:00I've talked to other people, and they had paddles with names as well.
00:03:04Uh, one person I talked to said theirs was called the Board of Education.
00:03:07And then I talked to another person, and they had a paddle called, swear to God, Mommy's
00:03:15Hand.
00:03:16It was in the shape of a hand, and it said Mommy's Hand on it, and then their mom would
00:03:22take it and spank them.
00:03:23I'm like, she has a hand.
00:03:24That's a hat on a hat.
00:03:26Just use Mommy's regular hand.
00:03:28Okay?
00:03:28And now, none of those paddles are used to hit kids now.
00:03:32Now they're all sold in BDSM shops to spank adults with.
00:03:37All right?
00:03:37So if there's any kids that are still getting spanked out there, this is how it will be
00:03:41the last time you ever get spanked.
00:03:43All right?
00:03:43If you do something wrong, your dad's like, I'm going to get the Attitude Adjuster.
00:03:47It's going to hurt, but you just focus.
00:03:48You fight through the pain.
00:03:49And when your dad spanks you, you just look back and say, oh, have I been a naughty boy,
00:03:54daddy?
00:03:54He'll be like, whoa, never doing that again.
00:03:56Wow.
00:03:58This family will use diplomacy henceforth for punishment.
00:04:04I was always annoyed because I don't know what happened when my parents did something wrong.
00:04:11They didn't get in trouble.
00:04:13I caught my mom in a lie one time.
00:04:15This is what happened.
00:04:15I was on the baseball team, and I was like, I don't want to play on the team anymore.
00:04:20And she's like, all right, I'll call the coach.
00:04:22So I quit the team, and the next day at school, I walked in, and this one kid who was
00:04:26on the team was like, hey, man, hope your shoulder's better.
00:04:29Everybody's praying for you.
00:04:31So I went home and asked my mom.
00:04:32I'm like, what'd you tell the coach?
00:04:34She's like, well, I told him that you injured your shoulder.
00:04:36And I was like, why?
00:04:37That's a lie.
00:04:38And she said, well, it was the only way I could get the $75 fee back.
00:04:42And I was like, so you lied?
00:04:46That's wrong.
00:04:47You're not supposed to lie.
00:04:49And my mom, she was like, Kevin, there are bad lies.
00:04:53And there aren't many, but there are some good lies.
00:04:56I'm like, mom, a good lie is like, no, officer, there are no Jews in our basement.
00:05:02Not my son injured his shoulder, so can we have $75 back?
00:05:06Yeah, I went to school for musical theater.
00:05:12Are there any theater majors in the building?
00:05:13Anybody?
00:05:14Ow!
00:05:14Got a few, right?
00:05:16See, I wanted to study theater, serious acting.
00:05:19And then they were like, we will give you a scholarship if you study musical theater instead
00:05:24of just regular theater.
00:05:26And I was like, all right.
00:05:28So I went to school for musical theater, all right?
00:05:30So I went to school for musical theater, all right?
00:05:37Because they said, we will pay you $15,000 a year if you do musical theater.
00:05:42So I was like, what does that mean?
00:05:44And they're like, you take all the regular theater classes, and then on top of that, you
00:05:47have to take dance classes and singing lessons.
00:05:51And I was like, all right.
00:05:52So I still get to take all the regular theater classes.
00:05:55They're like, yeah.
00:05:55I had to take dance classes.
00:05:56I don't know if there's anyone in the room who is not a dancer, who has had to get in
00:06:01front of groups of people and dance.
00:06:03It's very vulnerable and very embarrassing, okay?
00:06:07I was in this one class, jazz dance, with Jody Welch.
00:06:12She was a very strict teacher.
00:06:14And I had to get a beat or else I didn't pass and then move on to the next year of school.
00:06:18So I'm like practicing choreography.
00:06:20And then I have to get up in front of 25 people and do it alone.
00:06:23So I'm just like, all right, step, ball, change, step, ball, change, pirouette, shimmy.
00:06:29Step, ball, change, practice.
00:06:31And watch this.
00:06:31Look, look, I can do a pirouette.
00:06:33Ready?
00:06:38Yeah.
00:06:39I learned that in college, right?
00:06:41So I had the pirouette down.
00:06:42I had the step, ball, change.
00:06:44And then I got to the shimmy.
00:06:45And it's at the very end, right?
00:06:46So I do the whole thing.
00:06:47Da, da, da, pirouette, shimmy.
00:06:49And this is my shimmy.
00:06:50I just go up and I'm like.
00:06:50Nailing it.
00:06:55And my dance teacher just starts laughing, like maniacally.
00:06:59And I was like, what are you laughing at?
00:07:00She's like, Kevin, a shimmy is this.
00:07:02It's just shoulders.
00:07:04Just relax.
00:07:05It's just shoulders.
00:07:06There's no arms.
00:07:07Just shoulders.
00:07:08I was like, all right.
00:07:08She's like, do it one more time.
00:07:10And she's like, had her grade book out.
00:07:12And then I went.
00:07:12And I was like, step, ball, change, step, ball, change, pirouette, shimmy.
00:07:18I was like, am I doing it?
00:07:19And she's like, you're not doing it.
00:07:20And I was like, she's just laughing.
00:07:22The whole class is laughing.
00:07:23I'm like, I never asked for this.
00:07:25I want to go to school for regular theater.
00:07:33This is my favorite class.
00:07:34My favorite class was the history of modern drama.
00:07:39Because we got to study all the great plays throughout history.
00:07:42It was awesome.
00:07:43Starting like 3,000 years ago.
00:07:45All the great tragedies.
00:07:46All the great comedies.
00:07:48It was wonderful.
00:07:49I'm going to take a sip of water.
00:07:50I shimmied too hard.
00:07:53I shimmied too close to the sun, people.
00:07:59One more.
00:07:59So, we read this book by Plato, the philosopher.
00:08:08And it was.
00:08:10What?
00:08:13Is that funny?
00:08:15He's a philosopher, right?
00:08:17Okay.
00:08:18So, in drama school.
00:08:21In drama school, we read Plato, the philosopher.
00:08:24And he talked about Plato.
00:08:27Am I saying Play-Doh instead?
00:08:29Is that funny?
00:08:29Okay.
00:08:30So, in it, he talks about the origins of comedy.
00:08:343,000 years ago, Plato said this about comedy.
00:08:37Comedy was developed in Athens at the Phallus Festivals.
00:08:42These are festivals where men got up and made jokes about their penis.
00:08:463,000.
00:08:47Dude, stand-up is usually just guys on stage talking about their dick.
00:08:503,000 years, no development in comedy.
00:08:53Still the same old shit, okay?
00:08:56Then, he spends the rest of the book talking about tragedy.
00:09:00And where tragedy came from and the nature of it.
00:09:02So, we were reading that.
00:09:03We were talking about it.
00:09:03And then, we read all of Shakespeare's tragedies.
00:09:07Right?
00:09:08And I don't want to spoil anything, but do you guys know how tragedies end?
00:09:13Everybody dies.
00:09:14Every time, everybody dies.
00:09:16And like Elizabeth, in times they're like,
00:09:18I wonder what's going to happen to King Lear.
00:09:19And they're like, I fucking know already, right?
00:09:21So, but they don't die for just random reasons.
00:09:25No, they die because the lead character has a tragic flaw.
00:09:29Something that leads to their demise and the demise of everyone around them.
00:09:33For example, Macbeth.
00:09:35He wants to be king.
00:09:36He's very ambitious.
00:09:37And he is so ambitious because he wants to be king so bad that what happens?
00:09:43He dies and everyone else dies.
00:09:45And then, you leave the theater.
00:09:46You're like, not going to be so ambitious, you know?
00:09:49Got to watch out.
00:09:51Othello.
00:09:52Othello is jealous.
00:09:54He loves Desdemona so much.
00:09:56But then, he gets jealous.
00:09:57And what happens to Desdemona?
00:09:58Desdemona, she dies and he dies and everyone else dies.
00:10:03So, better not be so jealous, you know?
00:10:07Hamlet.
00:10:08The greatest play ever written.
00:10:10Shakespeare's greatest tragedy.
00:10:12What is Hamlet's tragic flaw?
00:10:13Does anyone know?
00:10:15This is in our textbook.
00:10:18Hamlet's tragic flaw was procrastination.
00:10:22Procrastination.
00:10:26Oh, yes.
00:10:27The great tragic flaws.
00:10:29Ambition.
00:10:30Jealousy.
00:10:31And waiting a little bit.
00:10:35That's it?
00:10:37Procrastination?
00:10:38This is how my mind thinks.
00:10:40Literally, I read that play and then we talked about that.
00:10:42And any time, like, I wake up in the morning and I hit the snooze button, I'm like,
00:10:45I'm going back.
00:10:46It's a little Hamlet-y of you.
00:10:48Huh?
00:10:48I don't know.
00:10:51This is what happens.
00:10:52Uh, Hamlet's uncle kills his dad and then Hamlet is supposed to take revenge and kill
00:11:00his uncle.
00:11:00But instead, he's like, to be or not to be, that is the question.
00:11:04And they're like, come on, stop with this beautiful language.
00:11:07You're supposed to be murdering your uncle right now.
00:11:10And then what happens to Hamlet?
00:11:12He dies and everyone else dies.
00:11:13But guess what?
00:11:14Macbeth was a shitty dude.
00:11:16Hamlet was a good guy.
00:11:19Isn't that fucked up?
00:11:20That made me so mad.
00:11:23All right.
00:11:23Here's some real tragedies in real life.
00:11:27These people didn't deserve what happened.
00:11:29Okay.
00:11:29This really happened.
00:11:30There's this guy who saw a Picasso painting when he was young.
00:11:35And he said, I want to own that painting one day.
00:11:37And so he became a billionaire.
00:11:38And then he purchased the painting.
00:11:41And not only that, but he made the most expensive show in Las Vegas history all about this painting
00:11:46that he loved called Le Reve, the dream.
00:11:48And then someone came up to him and said, I want to buy this painting off you for $150 million,
00:11:54the most expensive private art sale in the history of humankind.
00:11:56So he gets the painting out for one last time to look at it and observe it.
00:12:01He brings up some of his friends and he says, here is my painting.
00:12:05And then he turns around and he puts his elbow through the painting.
00:12:11Yeah.
00:12:13Now, what was his tragic flaw?
00:12:16Maybe.
00:12:17Ooh.
00:12:17Maybe he was drinking.
00:12:19Maybe if it was a play, you'd see him drinking the whole time and he'd be like,
00:12:21this is going to come back to bite you in the butt, guy.
00:12:23And then he's drunk and he puts his arm through.
00:12:26That would be pretty good, right?
00:12:27No, he wasn't drunk.
00:12:29He was completely sober.
00:12:30His tragic flaw is that he was blind.
00:12:37He had a degenerative eye disease called retinosa pigmentosis.
00:12:41And he lost his sight over the course of his life.
00:12:44And so he couldn't see anymore.
00:12:47And then he destroyed the painting that he loved.
00:12:49That is, that's so tragic, it's funny.
00:12:54You know what I mean?
00:12:55That's funny.
00:12:56And if that seems mean, don't worry.
00:12:58He's not going to see this, okay?
00:13:00Even if he buys a ticket and sits in the front row, he's not going to see this, okay?
00:13:08This is way more sad.
00:13:09If you think that's sad, this one, next one, way more sad.
00:13:13I came home from school.
00:13:14I'm watching Dr. Phil.
00:13:18I'm watching Dr. Phil give some of his classic tough love.
00:13:21Hey, man, you got to get your life together.
00:13:23Come on, right?
00:13:24And then this couple is on.
00:13:26And this couple is happily married.
00:13:28They love each other very much.
00:13:29But then they got some information that made them, is affecting their marriage.
00:13:33And they don't know what to do with it.
00:13:34So they go on Dr. Phil, and they start describing that they looked into their family history,
00:13:39and they found out that they were separated at birth, and they were actually brother and sister.
00:13:47Yeah.
00:13:49That's just sad.
00:13:52That's so tragic.
00:13:55The only thing that's funny about that
00:13:57is that they chose to go on Dr. Phil.
00:14:02for advice.
00:14:05Like, what is Dr. Phil
00:14:07going to tell them
00:14:08that's going to change that?
00:14:10It was just like,
00:14:11Hey, man, come on.
00:14:12You got to communicate with your wife.
00:14:14I mean,
00:14:15your sister.
00:14:16What the fuck is going on right now?
00:14:18Why are you guys on national television?
00:14:20You divorce quietly.
00:14:22You don't tell a soul.
00:14:24And you live
00:14:25with the fact that this is a
00:14:27broken, fallen, sad world
00:14:30that we live in.
00:14:32We're going to go to commercial.
00:14:35We'll see you later.
00:14:35Okay.
00:14:39Incest.
00:14:42Accidental incest.
00:14:44It's happened to the best of us,
00:14:45you know?
00:14:47It's really the second worst type of incest.
00:14:51Accidental incest.
00:14:52Number one being purposeful incest,
00:14:55but it's a close second.
00:14:59That's what,
00:15:00that's what,
00:15:01Oh, does this offend you?
00:15:03No, I'm kidding.
00:15:03She's like,
00:15:07Hey, I'm married to my brother
00:15:08and everything's perfect.
00:15:09I'm just kidding.
00:15:10I'm just joking.
00:15:10All right.
00:15:13So does anyone know
00:15:14the very first great tragedy?
00:15:16Anybody?
00:15:18It has,
00:15:18I'll give you a hint.
00:15:19It has to do with incest.
00:15:21Oedipus.
00:15:22Oedipus.
00:15:22You got it.
00:15:23Oedipus.
00:15:23Written by Sophocles.
00:15:25Yes.
00:15:26Now here's the plot of Oedipus.
00:15:27It was written 3,000 years ago,
00:15:29a long time ago.
00:15:30And Oedipus is the king.
00:15:33And this oracle comes out
00:15:34and he's just like,
00:15:35Hey, Oedipus,
00:15:36you are going to kill your father
00:15:39and marry your mother.
00:15:41And he's like,
00:15:41What?
00:15:42I don't want to do that.
00:15:43And so he goes to a new town
00:15:45and then he grows up.
00:15:46And then as he's an adult,
00:15:47he goes to another town.
00:15:49He's walking down the street
00:15:50and this guy gets in a fight
00:15:51and then he kills the guy by accident,
00:15:54but he kills him, right?
00:15:55Then he gets to a new town
00:15:56and he's like,
00:15:57This girl's cute.
00:15:58And they get married
00:15:58and then the oracle pops out.
00:15:59It's like,
00:16:00Ha ha!
00:16:01That was your father.
00:16:02And this is your mother.
00:16:04And he's like,
00:16:05Ah, I did it!
00:16:07Shit!
00:16:10This is not part of the show,
00:16:12but this is him stabbing his eyes out,
00:16:14not jerking off two dicks
00:16:16and coming all over himself.
00:16:17Ha ha!
00:16:21Did anybody think that besides me?
00:16:23Oh, yeah.
00:16:24Okay, thank God.
00:16:25I just...
00:16:26Woo!
00:16:26I'm sorry, Jeremy.
00:16:29Jeremy, my cinematographer,
00:16:30was like,
00:16:30I love that this show
00:16:31doesn't have any dick jokes.
00:16:32That was not on purpose.
00:16:35Okay, so,
00:16:36we're focused.
00:16:37We're focused.
00:16:38We're focused!
00:16:39Okay, so,
00:16:40he stabs his eyes out, right?
00:16:42But here's the thing.
00:16:43What better reason is there
00:16:45to go to a different town
00:16:46and avoid your fate
00:16:47than if someone was like,
00:16:48You're gonna kill your father
00:16:49and marry your mother.
00:16:49He's like,
00:16:50I gotta do something about this.
00:16:51I gotta take action.
00:16:52So he takes action
00:16:53and by taking action,
00:16:55he sets his fate into motion.
00:16:57Right?
00:16:57And what is his tragic flaw?
00:17:01Pride.
00:17:02That's what they say.
00:17:03It's pride.
00:17:04The pride to think
00:17:05that you can outrun the fate
00:17:08which was given to you
00:17:09by the gods.
00:17:11That's fucked up!
00:17:12Do you know what Oedipus
00:17:13needed to do?
00:17:15Procrastinate.
00:17:17If only he would've
00:17:18procrastinated,
00:17:19this would've never happened.
00:17:21They're like,
00:17:21You're gonna kill your father.
00:17:22He's like,
00:17:22I gotta get out of this town.
00:17:23But I don't know,
00:17:24I have to find a new apartment.
00:17:25This girl's so cute.
00:17:28We relate on so many
00:17:29different levels.
00:17:30I should ask her out.
00:17:31I'll do it tomorrow.
00:17:32He would've been saved!
00:17:35So if you procrastinate
00:17:36and don't do anything,
00:17:37you're fucked.
00:17:39If you take action
00:17:39and do stuff,
00:17:40you're fucked.
00:17:40You gotta find
00:17:41the perfect middle.
00:17:42Right in the middle.
00:17:43That's where life is sweet.
00:17:45Okay?
00:17:47But Oedipus' plot
00:17:48is so weird
00:17:50that if you take out
00:17:52the violence,
00:17:52it almost just feels
00:17:53like a 90s sitcom.
00:17:55It's like,
00:17:55the one where Joey
00:17:57marries his mom!
00:17:59Jerry!
00:18:01Jerry!
00:18:02She's very perfect!
00:18:04I love her very much!
00:18:06It's just one problem!
00:18:07What's the problem?
00:18:08Is it a big problem?
00:18:10Very big!
00:18:12Very big problem!
00:18:15How I Met Your Mother?
00:18:16How I Met Your Mother?
00:18:23I was talking to someone.
00:18:26Someone said
00:18:27that I was pretentious.
00:18:28Okay?
00:18:29Could you have told
00:18:31from the past
00:18:31ten minutes
00:18:32of my comedy?
00:18:34Yeah, they said
00:18:35I was pretentious
00:18:35because this was
00:18:36the question.
00:18:36We were just at a bar
00:18:37and he was like,
00:18:38what is
00:18:39your favorite thing
00:18:41in all of art?
00:18:42Anything ever?
00:18:43I was like,
00:18:44I don't get the question.
00:18:44He's like,
00:18:44like mine?
00:18:45Mine is
00:18:46key changes.
00:18:47In a song,
00:18:48there's a key change.
00:18:50That's my favorite thing.
00:18:51Then the other person
00:18:52is like,
00:18:52my favorite thing,
00:18:53I gotta say it,
00:18:54it's, you know,
00:18:55it's car chases.
00:18:56An action movie
00:18:57with car chases,
00:18:57that's like
00:18:58what gets my soul singing.
00:19:00Okay?
00:19:01Mine,
00:19:01I said,
00:19:02you know,
00:19:02I gotta be honest,
00:19:03I think mine is
00:19:04when they say
00:19:05the name of a play
00:19:06in the play.
00:19:10They were like,
00:19:10that's the most
00:19:11pretentious thing
00:19:12I've ever heard.
00:19:13And I was like,
00:19:13but it's true!
00:19:14I love it!
00:19:15When it happens,
00:19:16I get so happy.
00:19:18Okay,
00:19:18like,
00:19:18here's one.
00:19:19All My Sons,
00:19:20it's an Arthur Miller play,
00:19:21okay?
00:19:22And it's called
00:19:22All My Sons,
00:19:23and it's about this guy
00:19:24who cuts a bunch of corners
00:19:25in this factory
00:19:26with the plane parts.
00:19:28And then the plane parts
00:19:28go into these planes,
00:19:29and then
00:19:30a bunch of planes
00:19:32go down
00:19:33with these young pilots
00:19:34in them,
00:19:34and all the kids die.
00:19:36Okay?
00:19:36And then,
00:19:37over the course of the play,
00:19:39the lead character
00:19:39realizes and reckons
00:19:41with the fact
00:19:41that it was his
00:19:42cutting corners
00:19:44in the factory
00:19:44that led to their deaths.
00:19:46And he just looks out
00:19:47and he says,
00:19:48those boys,
00:19:48they were all
00:19:50My Sons.
00:19:52And I'm like,
00:19:54that's the name
00:19:56of the play!
00:19:58That's fucking awesome!
00:20:02Streetcar Named Desire?
00:20:03In Streetcar Named Desire,
00:20:05Tennessee Williams play,
00:20:06Blanche Dubois
00:20:07moved from a different town
00:20:09down to New Orleans,
00:20:10okay?
00:20:10And then her first line
00:20:12in the play,
00:20:12they're like,
00:20:13how'd you get down here?
00:20:14And she just says
00:20:14the real directions
00:20:15to how she would have
00:20:16gotten down there
00:20:16even in real life.
00:20:18She just says,
00:20:18I took the Streetcar Named Desire,
00:20:20got off on Cemetery,
00:20:22got off at Elysian Fields.
00:20:25You're like,
00:20:25huh, that's funny,
00:20:26that's the name of the play.
00:20:27It must be important.
00:20:29And then later,
00:20:29you realize,
00:20:31Streetcar Named Desire,
00:20:33Cemetery,
00:20:33Elysian Fields.
00:20:35She's gonna die!
00:20:36This is gonna lead
00:20:37to her death!
00:20:38And then,
00:20:38guess what?
00:20:39It's a tragic ending!
00:20:40And you're like,
00:20:40that was fucking awesome!
00:20:42Yes!
00:20:43He told me right up top!
00:20:45That's two layers!
00:20:47Two layers!
00:20:48Have you guys ever
00:20:49tried to write something
00:20:49with two layers?
00:20:51Have you ever written
00:20:52an email and, like,
00:20:53you can't even get it out?
00:20:54You're just like,
00:20:54hi, Brian,
00:20:55I wanted to inquire about,
00:20:57uh, how are you doing?
00:20:58Hope that,
00:20:58that's one layer!
00:20:59I can't even write an email
00:21:00with one layer
00:21:01half the time!
00:21:03I want to write something
00:21:03with two layers!
00:21:05Have you ever seen
00:21:06someone so excited
00:21:07about metaphors?
00:21:08I'm just like,
00:21:08yes!
00:21:09I love a simile
00:21:10but a metaphor!
00:21:12Get the like and the as!
00:21:13Out!
00:21:14I want it all!
00:21:17Alright,
00:21:18this is the triple lutz
00:21:19of theater.
00:21:20It's very hard to do.
00:21:21It could only be done
00:21:22maybe by one person.
00:21:23Eugene O'Neill.
00:21:25Okay?
00:21:25That is when you say
00:21:26the name of the play
00:21:27as the last line
00:21:30of the play.
00:21:32Slow fade to black.
00:21:34Very difficult.
00:21:36Okay?
00:21:36But Eugene O'Neill
00:21:37died.
00:21:38He left a script
00:21:38in his will and testament
00:21:40and it said
00:21:41it's dedicated to his wife.
00:21:43It was too painful
00:21:43for him to see
00:21:44during his lifetime
00:21:45because it's about
00:21:46his mother's morphine addiction
00:21:47and it's about
00:21:47his brother's alcoholism
00:21:49and a strained relationship
00:21:50with his father
00:21:51and it's four and a half
00:21:53hours long
00:21:53and they put it up
00:21:54and it became
00:21:55his masterpiece.
00:21:57And at the end
00:21:57of the play
00:21:58his mother's
00:21:58at the edge
00:21:59of the stage
00:21:59and she says
00:22:00surely this was
00:22:02a long day's journey
00:22:05into night.
00:22:20That's not how the play ends
00:22:21actually.
00:22:21They actually never say
00:22:22long day's journey
00:22:23into night
00:22:24in long day's journey
00:22:25into night
00:22:25so I misled you.
00:22:27I apologize.
00:22:29I just needed
00:22:29a third thing
00:22:30to end that joke
00:22:31so I made it up.
00:22:35But this is true.
00:22:36This is true.
00:22:37I'm just saying
00:22:38like I want to do
00:22:38serious,
00:22:39serious stuff.
00:22:40The whole first half
00:22:41that's all comedy
00:22:42and everything
00:22:42but I want to do
00:22:43tragedy,
00:22:45serious theater
00:22:46but
00:22:47got to do comedy.
00:22:49you know
00:22:49that's what I do.
00:22:54I got a motorcycle
00:22:55a few years ago.
00:22:58I made this decision
00:22:59the way I make
00:22:59a lot of decisions
00:23:00just very quickly
00:23:02and without thinking.
00:23:03I just walked past
00:23:04some people
00:23:04that had motorcycles
00:23:06and I was like
00:23:07I'm getting a fucking
00:23:08motorcycle!
00:23:09So I went home
00:23:10I got on
00:23:11Facebook Marketplace
00:23:12and then I got it
00:23:12and then the next day
00:23:13I borrowed my friend's car
00:23:14and he drove out with me
00:23:15and we bought the motorcycle
00:23:16with cash
00:23:17and then he rode it back
00:23:18because he knows
00:23:18how to ride it
00:23:19and we go right
00:23:20to Red Hook, Brooklyn
00:23:20and then I'm in shorts
00:23:23and I don't have
00:23:23a helmet yet
00:23:24but I just want to
00:23:24feel what it feels like
00:23:26to get on.
00:23:27I sat on there
00:23:28and I was like
00:23:28I got a motorcycle.
00:23:31You know?
00:23:33And then he showed me
00:23:33the clutch
00:23:34and he showed me
00:23:34the brake
00:23:35and the throttle
00:23:36and how to put it
00:23:37into gear
00:23:38and then by accident
00:23:39I put it into first gear
00:23:40and it just jerked forward
00:23:41and I was like
00:23:42ah!
00:23:42Ah!
00:23:43And I almost fell over
00:23:44and my friend ran up
00:23:44and he's like
00:23:44you're okay?
00:23:45And I was like
00:23:45I own a fucking motorcycle!
00:23:48Why did I buy
00:23:48a motorcycle?
00:23:50This is not good!
00:23:51Why do I own this?
00:23:52And he's like
00:23:53okay, okay, okay.
00:23:54You need to take this class

00:26:32of traffic safely
00:26:33if you feel in danger
00:26:34and by the end of the week
00:26:35it was true
00:26:35I felt so safe
00:26:37and the woman who taught the class
00:26:39she said
00:26:39you know what
00:26:39she said
00:26:40the safer that you feel
00:26:41on this bike
00:26:42the more fun it is
00:26:43okay
00:26:43and then
00:26:44at the end of class
00:26:45you could tell
00:26:46she still hated everybody else
00:26:47because I was that guy
00:26:48she liked me
00:26:49everyone else was leaving
00:26:51she was like
00:26:51bye bye
00:26:52then she got to me
00:26:53and she put her hand out
00:26:54she said
00:26:54Kevin
00:26:56welcome to the road
00:26:58I was like
00:27:04I'll see you out there
00:27:05so then
00:27:07I had to get insurance
00:27:09for my motorcycle
00:27:10and for my safety
00:27:11and I've lived in New York
00:27:13for 14 years
00:27:13so I've never had insurance
00:27:15for anything
00:27:16I don't own a car
00:27:17so I didn't know
00:27:18like what to do
00:27:19and then you're just going
00:27:20through your Rolodex
00:27:21of commercials
00:27:21you're just like
00:27:22okay
00:27:22like
00:27:23do I go with the Aflac duck
00:27:24Aflac
00:27:26or
00:27:26you're like
00:27:27Allstate
00:27:27they're like
00:27:28Allstate
00:27:29you're in good hands
00:27:30or like
00:27:31we'll protect you from mayhem
00:27:32or
00:27:33like a good neighbor
00:27:35State Farm is there
00:27:38musical theater
00:27:40so
00:27:40I went with Geico
00:27:43okay
00:27:44I went with Geico
00:27:45because I just remembered
00:27:46the gecko
00:27:47I was like
00:27:49the Geico gecko
00:27:50I'll go with Geico
00:27:51I always thought
00:27:54that the gecko
00:27:54was weird
00:27:55because he's from
00:27:55East London
00:27:56they're not native
00:27:58to that part
00:27:59of the world
00:28:01he's just like
00:28:02oh
00:28:02I'm a gecko
00:28:04you know
00:28:04from East London
00:28:06right
00:28:06you got 15% off
00:28:08could save
00:28:08save you more
00:28:09on your car insurance
00:28:10right
00:28:10but
00:28:11he has that accent
00:28:12that just makes me
00:28:13think he's going to say
00:28:14the C word
00:28:14because in East London
00:28:17they just
00:28:17they say cunt
00:28:18all the time
00:28:19they just say the C word
00:28:20all the time
00:28:21right
00:28:21so I just imagined
00:28:22in a Geico commercial
00:28:24and be like
00:28:24oh you should get insurance
00:28:25you daft cunt
00:28:26all right
00:28:27come on over
00:28:28save 15% or more off
00:28:30you daft cunt
00:28:31right
00:28:32because in America
00:28:33the C word
00:28:34is just the worst thing
00:28:35that you can call
00:28:36a woman
00:28:37but in England
00:28:38it's like calling someone
00:28:39a silly goose
00:28:40right
00:28:40all right
00:28:42so I call up
00:28:43the people at Geico
00:28:44and this lady
00:28:45is very very nice
00:28:46and she helps me
00:28:47with everything
00:28:47she's like
00:28:48I'm going to make sure
00:28:48that you are fully covered
00:28:50and she walks me through
00:28:51step by step
00:28:52and then she was like
00:28:52I have a question Kevin
00:28:54do you happen to have
00:28:56a MIPS helmet
00:28:57and I was like
00:28:57in fact I do
00:28:59she's like
00:29:00have you taken any classes

00:29:13safety measures
00:29:14and I was like
00:29:14thank you very much
00:29:15then she told me
00:29:16the amount
00:29:16and it was so cheap
00:29:18I was like
00:29:18this is way cheaper
00:29:19than I thought it'd be
00:29:21I was like
00:29:22why is motorcycle insurance
00:29:23so cheap
00:29:24this is like
00:29:24very affordable
00:29:25and she said
00:29:25well
00:29:26a lot of times
00:29:27with motorcycle policies
00:29:28we don't have to pay out
00:29:29for medical expenses
00:29:31I was like
00:29:39that's crazy
00:29:39I would think
00:29:40that if you got
00:29:40in a motorcycle accident
00:29:41there'd be a lot
00:29:42of medical expenses
00:29:43and she said

00:29:45if you're in a motorcycle accident
00:29:47there are
00:29:47no medical expenses
00:29:49and I was like
00:29:51what
00:29:51and then it dawned on me
00:29:53and I was like
00:29:55even if you're at Gat
00:30:03she's like

00:30:13and I took all the necessary steps

00:43:44the only problem is
00:43:46I don't have
00:43:47$15,000

00:48:39but inside
00:48:40my heart is like
00:48:41racing day to day
00:48:42wondering what my next move
00:48:43should be
00:48:44you know
00:48:44and so I just text her

00:48:46what are you up to?
00:48:47and she's like
00:48:47would you like to go to a movie?
00:48:49and I was like
00:48:50yes
00:48:50let's do it
00:48:52and she's like
00:48:52well the cinema is playing
00:48:53this musical
00:48:55it's by The National
00:48:57I was like
00:49:01that makes no sense
00:49:02the band The National
00:49:02is just a sad indie band
00:49:04and they wouldn't ever write a musical
00:49:07but I was like
00:49:09sure
00:49:09yes
00:49:09I'd love to
00:49:10I would love to
00:49:11and then we show up
00:49:12and we go see this movie
00:49:13it's a musical version
00:49:14of Cyrano de Bergerac
00:49:15and we're watching the whole movie
00:49:16and I'm like
00:49:17oh my gosh
00:49:17we studied this play
00:49:19when I was in college
00:49:21in that class
00:49:22that I told you about earlier
00:49:22we studied Cyrano de Bergerac
00:49:25and what's interesting
00:49:26about Cyrano de Bergerac
00:49:27is that
00:49:28they can't really classify it
00:49:29as a comedy or a tragedy
00:49:31they actually classify it
00:49:32as a romantic tragedy
00:49:34or a heroic comedy
00:49:36because it has elements of both
00:49:38and I'm watching it
00:49:40and in it
00:49:41Cyrano de Bergerac
00:49:42does not end up with a girl
00:49:43actually he aids another guy
00:49:47in getting married to a girl
00:49:49I was watching it
00:49:52just being like
00:49:52this is insane
00:49:54I'm working on getting better
00:49:58at just
00:49:59people after shows
00:50:00are just like
00:50:00well how much of this is real
00:50:02this is real
00:50:03the National
00:50:05wrote a musical
00:50:07of Cyrano de Bergerac
00:50:09and she invited me
00:50:11to go see it
00:50:12and it's about
00:50:13that
00:50:14so after it's done
00:50:19I was like
00:50:19do you want to come over
00:50:20and she was like
00:50:21let's get a drink
00:50:22so we went and got a drink
00:50:23and we talked about the movie
00:50:24and we both really enjoyed it
00:50:26it was odd
00:50:26and interesting
00:50:27but ultimately really good
00:50:29and I was like
00:50:29do you want to come over
00:50:30to my place
00:50:30and she's like
00:50:31I'm very stressed
00:50:31I'd like to go home
00:50:33so she went home
00:50:34and then
00:50:34I'm on the subway ride home
00:50:35and then I get off
00:50:36a stop early
00:50:37and I go to my motorcycle garage
00:50:38because it's January
00:50:39and it's a little bit
00:50:40you know
00:50:41it's not too chilly out

00:50:45and I'm riding around
00:50:46the city
00:50:47just thinking about
00:50:48the situation that I'm in
00:50:49and then
00:50:50it just dawns on me
00:50:51I'm like
00:50:51you know what

00:54:32insured before
00:54:33the activity
00:54:34takes place
00:54:35what you needed
00:54:35you should have

00:54:44balance of
00:54:44New York
00:54:44covers theft
00:54:45as well
00:54:45and as she
00:54:46was saying
00:54:47that
00:54:47I looked up
00:54:48the definition
00:54:48of full
00:54:49on Google
00:54:49and comprehensive
00:54:51and I was like
00:54:51ma'am

00:54:53this verbatim
00:54:54okay
00:54:54from Webster's
00:54:55it says
00:54:55full
00:54:56the definition
00:54:56of full
00:54:57is including
00:54:58all elements
00:55:00of something
00:55:02and I'm reading

00:55:04of comprehensive
00:55:05right now
00:55:06to you
00:55:06over the line

00:55:09or
00:55:10nearly all
00:55:11elements

00:57:34but for me
00:57:35it was always temporary
00:57:36from the beginning

00:57:45thank you for everything
00:57:46and
00:57:48for anything that I put you through
00:57:50and then
00:57:51there was a single tear emoji
00:57:53at the end
00:57:54so I sent her back
00:57:57a thumbs up emoji
00:57:59but things were not feeling thumbs up
00:58:02then I said
00:58:05I'd like to move on to
00:58:07the business related matters
00:58:08when am I going to get the money back

00:58:38which means
00:58:39she disconnected her phone line
00:58:41yeah

00:59:30without talking to anybody
00:59:32about this
00:59:33just figuring out
00:59:34in my head
00:59:34what my next move was
00:59:36what I was going to do
00:59:37and I thought to myself
00:59:37I said
00:59:38you know what
00:59:38I'm going to pay
00:59:39my parents back
00:59:41and then
00:59:42after that
00:59:43you know
00:59:44I'm going to
00:59:46start taking public transportation
00:59:47that's fine
00:59:48you know
00:59:48and I'm going to
00:59:50I'm definitely going to put
00:59:5115%
00:59:52of all of my money
00:59:53into a retirement account
00:59:55after this
00:59:56going forward
00:59:56and I'm going to be
00:59:57responsible with that
00:59:58and
00:59:58I'm going to go to the dentist

01:00:07because you know
01:00:08that on your mom's side
01:00:09cancer runs in the family
01:00:11and early detection
01:00:12is the best way
01:00:13and it's better than any cure they have
01:00:15that's a lot to carry around
01:00:21for a few weeks
