The episode blends personal storytelling, absurd humor, and deep reflections on comedy culture, relationships, and identity. The host recounts an eventful night in Los Angeles, including a failed attempt to join a private jet offer from Jerry Seinfeld, highlighting the awkwardness and miscommunication that often occur in high-energy social settings. The narrative shifts to a celebration of live comedy, with memorable encounters such as meeting Matt Groening, the creator of The Simpsons, at a show. These moments underscore the intimacy and authenticity of live performances. The host also reflects on religious and cultural themes, joking about the roles of God and Jesus, the origins of superhero imagery, and the influence of Jewish writers in comedy. The episode is infused with humor about failed plans, travel mishaps, and personal relationships. It ends with a promotional push for Fabletics, Blue Chew, and Sheath Underwear, all tied to the theme of personal connection and comfort. Throughout, the tone remains playful, self-deprecating, and deeply rooted in the lived experience of a comedian navigating fame, friendship, and the chaos of live performance.
hey mark fake banter for the intro that's all I know how to do great good to be here welcome to Tuesdays with stories hitter in the face of the surfboard and then the duck fell out of his bag surfs up and she didn't even flush knock knock who's there mark Norman and Joe list yeah this Tuesdays with stories everybody that's terrible this is supposed to be cheesy yeah folks here we are we're back in New York City the Yankees the best the Rangers the next mom Donnie the rats the hobos the train and the Bush women and Brooklyn that still forget their fucking 50 feet from here in the Liberty Liberty yes yes that's you of Liberty Lady Liberty yeah boy I'll tell you that I live right by Barclays when is a Liberty game it's just full Lilith fair out there it's just period blood and backwards hats and lesbians and labian scissors who was Lillith is that somebody who's got a flower or some shit you look like a Lily I'd say Lillith I'd say it's a lady is a woman named Lillith Jill Lillith is something like that Lillith you have to give that a goog there Chuchu because I know Sarah McLaughlin or block Lynn is there a K in there or just a case of an angel whoa she's the dead dog bitch you know somebody else oh yeah yeah she's always got the cats with a one eye and a dog that was abused and he's all crooked and dirty Lillith Fair who else was it the closer I am to fight that song is great and then you see a lot of Melissa Heathridge out there she was good too she was good come to my window yeah she was good jewel I'm sure can we are we going to get flagged for all this I don't think we sing well enough okay great notice yeah let me ask you this I had this thought today and I don't know if this is offensive right out of the game but this is a genuine question all right hit me fatty what's the difference between God and Jesus now I know Jesus is the son of God there you go you see like Jesus loves you and then you see God loves you in God we trust so who's better who's doing more work it's a good question I think God is is no more oh no he's the head hauncho he's up there in the clouds with the white beard and the robe and the omnipotent now can you accept God without Jesus because it's Jesus saves now Jesus will do this but then you see God so there's a lot of God and Jesus so they're both they like Darth Vader and the emperor yes yes that's a great way to put but they're good so Jesus is Darth Vader yes the emperor that's good that's good I'll write it down I love that God has the lightning because he lightnings him yes yes from the clouds he kills the gaze and then Jesus is he's like the man on the boots on the ground right you know he's going he can save you though if you're a hooker or you'll go water you need wine he does a little this but God can save you too that's true but Jesus is face to face well God can do anything but Jesus is dead though right well he's out there he might come back they said well he did come back he came back did he leave again because I know he came back on Sunday that's the chocolate bunnies is that right I believe good Friday they fucked him all up and then Easter he came back which many people have pointed out Easter should be a bigger holiday than Christmas he is risen because Christmas he's born that's that's whatever who gives a ship a Madison Avenue got their ass in there on Christmas they figure that one out and let me ask you this who's Joseph that's you because Joseph and Mary had Jesus but he's the son of God so is God Joseph Joseph's just to do he was a vehicle he's a dude but he had he gave birth to Jesus no he had he was she was a virgin Mary so God impregnated her was his omnipotence they raised Jesus they were the guardian well that's the great Gerardo Joe he's like this whole religious is just based on a guy who really stuck to his story that's one of the great bits of all time totally I mean clearly Joseph blew it in her yeah they were fucking out in Nazareth he's a real pig virgin Mary I know but I think they're I think it's full of Baloney they they they banged after that did she blow him he must have blown yeah there's a lot of mercy Mary blue Joseph yeah so Joseph has no powers he's just whatever he's a guy he's like a farmer but did he raise Jesus yes like super man super man's dead who was also a farmer yes whoa maybe there's no kidding man Jesus parallels here because in this Joel who's God oh I think this is obvious is by the Chuck's face I didn't realize it's now well I'm not a super man guy I think he's gay I think it's like stupid it's got the little curl I don't get it he's got some moments ah you're saying that for Jerry he stinks I mean he's not I like Batman Batman guy yeah but Batman's cool Superman is a sees a sees a staple you need him he's the guy I guess but the move I tried to watch Superman one and it stinks on ice it's like full hour before Superman shows up yeah Reeves that fucking horse at horse accident but then they've pointed they maybe will point this out like he's in just glasses cost him his glasses that's that's never talked about come on now there's a reason there's like some kind of like these glasses are hypnotic or something no he was just a daily planet nerd no I'm telling you I because I'm like what the fuck is with these glasses and I googled it and they're like hypno glasses I have a theory because all these these superheroes are made up by Jews whoa they're all all the writers of Jews Stan Lee Stan Lee's a big heb bobcane who did Batman oh yeah I don't know about curve but the guy who did Superman is too Cleveland Jews flight to Cleveland yeah I can't remember their name but I think they think that's what a Gentile looks like oh they just drew a Gentile like man this guy strong he's tall he's got nice hair damn right no nose yeah that's us baby theory but anyway so Joseph is nothing he's a guy who was hook it up with a Mary and she gave birth to a baby see because you never really see a poster of Joseph or a sign look out for Joe now then there's the wise men oh yeah yeah three of them right three of them and they came with gifts for some reason we and then the drummer boy oh yeah let's see about there's a burning bush which sounds like it hurts yeah I've had a little bit of that yeah recently gotta get some antibiotics the special shampoo all right that too I got a bright red shampoo you have rub it in there and you can let it sit for about five minutes is it crabs jock it ah been there well it comes back I got all these things that come back yet of the warts foot warts jock it trapeze alcoholism uh warts yeah guy child yeah he comes back I keep coming back I'll come on you back but it's true you do have the reoccurring stuff you like reoccurring characters everything yeah yeah it is it's like a sitcom over here you got um Kenny Bania down there that's funny word can I use that so anyway so Jesus is good and God is so if you like Jesus you must like God and vice versa definitely okay well God you can like God but not Jesus because there's different gods well that's Jewish if you're Jewish you don't believe in Jesus you only believe in God but he's a Jew exactly he's a Jew Jesus a Jew they don't believe in their own guy they don't believe in Mary or Jesus that's a testament then who's Abraham that's the Old Testament Lincoln no the Jews believe in the Old Testament the Jews believe in the Old Testament and yet Jesus is only in the New Testament that's what I said Moses Moses he's the red seagull yeah he part of it yeah like a haircut I don't know the testaments now I know about old and new the sequel BCAD you know that before Christ and anode to many see man I don't know what that is that means in the year of our Lord but there you go all right this is what I'm done uh informed episodes of all time absolutely we're teaching the people I went to Catholic school I don't even know half of the shit yeah I know I just know

time or a manger me and uh Jimmy Cranchard we would do in a bit because it was after the LA riots and there was one black guy in there and then we had the three wise men we were pretending to beat him up in his head fell off but it rolled away I'll just laugh to laugh easy isis well that that riot was a big deal was a hum digger I'm so glad I was nine when that happened so I couldn't really take it

But yeah, he's just kind of cruising, he's hilarious, he's the funniest, and he's just all class, but it's a bad word to say about the guy. - No, no, I mean, he's had some bad movies over the years, but who hasn't, and then he keeps talking about standup again, but I don't think it's gonna happen. - Right, but yeah, the all-time legend. Pound for pound funniest person ever. - Yeah, maybe, I mean, with the movies, the standup, the SNLs, the whole thing. - Incredible. - So that was cool, and Louie was there, and just sweating through his t-shirt, the neck beard, I mean, he looked like hell, so that was fun, we kept poking in that. For him is there, he's a go-to, for him is like a lifeboat. - Yeah, he's the greatest, not the greatest podcaster, but boys, he, the best comic. - Yeah, but there is definitely a lot of this at the party. - Yeah, that's what it seems like. It doesn't seem fun in that way. - Yeah, you're almost a lily pet or a stepping stone, like, all right, I'll talk to you to get to that guy. So I'm just kind of using you, and then that's where you go. Oh, I'm in LA. This is LA, this is LA's final boss. You know, like we are hierarchy, high school levels, who's big, who's not, where are you at, you know, and you start kind of going like, do I need to get bigger? Do I need to like do more? Then you go, ah, fuck, I'm a working comedian. It's like you said, put me in St. Louis funny bow, and then I'm comfortable. - That's how I felt at the festival, you know, you're there for three days, and then three full days, morning, night, noon, whatever the fuck they say. - Yeah. - If I had to say my, the highlight of my whole festival, that day I went to breakfast with Ryan Hamilton and Tommy Johnnegan, and Hollywood. We just sat, had pancakes, and we laughed, and laughed, and was like, remember that time, remember this time? That guy sucks, that guy's sick, and then Hamilton had some great sidefold stories, 'cause they're like, best buddies now. - Shums. - And it was just a great hang, and then we're leaving, and Hamilton was like, are you guys going to this brunch? I don't know if I should go to the brunch, it doesn't seem like it's gonna be fun. And I was like, ah, that sucks. We just had this great morning, and now it's like, I'm going to my hotel to sit and contemplate if I should be at this party or not. - Yeah, well, I'll say that it wasn't like a rager, it wasn't the funnest day, but it was cool to see. - I mean, I can't imagine. I mean, my manager is a blurry background of a photo that's Eddie Murphy, Letterman, Seinfeld Rock. - Wow. - And then you can see a blur of my manager's hair. - Wow. - He's like, look at me. I'm like, that's crazy. - That is crazy, yeah. And I gotta say though, we did the big group photo, and the people shimmying to the front, it was, there was a real shamelessness. So a real grossness where you're like, all right, man, I know you want to be front and center, but have some fucking decency. Well, yeah, it's so obvious what you're doing. - Right, my son Big J was way in the back. - I'm way in the back, Faheem's way in the back. 'Cause you just go, I just put me in the pit. I'm happy to be in the pit. I don't want to be the guy like, excuse me, I need to get next to rock. Thank you. - Oh, Sebastian was there. Yeah, I believe so. Yeah, I don't know, check the photo. But now here, let me throw this one at you. - Please. - So we're talking to Jerry, we're at the party, and I'm leaving the next day to go to Toronto for a casino gig. So Jess Seinfeld walks up. And her and Sam are chummy. They got the Jew connection. I don't know what's going on there. They met up in Barcelona or something once with Jerry. Remember that? They got a post in a photo. - Oh, yes, I remember the photo. - So she coordinated all that. 'Cause they're, they follow each other on Instagram, whatever. So she walks up, she's like, "Sam, hey, blah, blah." And she's like, "Oh, hey, Jess, how you doing?" I'm like, "Hey, Jess, you know?" And she goes, "What are you guys doing?" When you guys headin' out. And I go, "I'm leaving tomorrow." And Sam's like, "Yeah, I think I'm leaving tomorrow too." And she goes, "You guys wanna come on the jet?" (whistles) And you're like, "Oh my God, this is incredible." How can you turn down a fucking private jet with Jerry? - It's like the Elaine with JFK Jr., you just go the wrong direction. - Yes. - Just because you want to be on that ride. - Exactly. And she's like, "We're leaving at 8 a.m., we got the Gulf Stream or whatever the hell." And I'm like, "Uhh!" And I was leaving at 8 a.m. So I'm like, "I'm on it, I'm in that flight." So she goes, "All right, great, I'll text you guys and we'll figure it out." And I'm like, "Uhh! Oh God!" I don't have her number. Sam does. So I'm like, "All right, Sam, you gotta help me out here. You gotta keep me in the loop." - Sure. - So then Sam, we're all hangin' out, we're having some drinks and 20 minutes later, he goes, "Oh, I'm not leaving tomorrow." I got, I got Julian Edelman's podcast. - Oh, it's right. - I got a cancel with Jess. And I go, "You know what? It was probably an empty offer anyway." And he goes, "Nah, she just texted me." - Wow. - And I was like, "Did she mention me?" 'Cause how am I gonna get on the jet? I got no contact with her. - Uh-huh. - I can't text Jerry. - Thank God. - Well, I can't go, "Hey, you're all the old ball and chain there mentioned something about the jet." I don't even know if he wants to be on the jet. She did all this on her own volition. - But this is the thing, this is what you're stuck in. You got some, your head stuck in the asshole. - Oh yeah. - Because you gotta treat normal. That's how you get a quality. - I know. - You gotta go normal. - I gotta hit my wife. That's equal. - Just say, "Hey, Jay, other Jay, I invited us on the plane." - Uh-huh. - The better half. - So, "Hey, Jerry, Jay's invited us on the plane." I don't know if that was genuine or not, but I don't have her number. I'd love to gum. - Yeah. - If May was like, "Hey, come over Sunday." - Yeah. - I would be like, "Okay, great." And then I would text you, go, "Hey, May invited me." You could go, "Come on, this is a different vibe here." This is a different relation. - Oh, you and Jerry are pretty tight, I know. - I don't know about that tight. Not like this. - I don't know. - I'm just saying. - Well, I'm not tight with a lot of people, but if their wife were like, "Hey, I'll give you a ride." I would text and be like, "Let me get that ride." - Right, right, so, okay. Well, I didn't even know if he wanted us on the jet, 'cause remember, you got picked up by Salahcus. You had that like, "Ah, do I need to see this guy for 20 minutes? "I want to go to my hotel." - But. - So, I'm thinking Jerry's having that same thought. - But, you know Jerry. Jerry is not a guy that goes, "Oh, sure." - That's true, that's true. - Jerry will be like, "Fuck you." - No. - Yeah, no. - That's this whole thing. This whole thing is being like, "Not you, Bobby." - Well, maybe I don't want to know. - Ah, all right. - That's part of it. I don't want to text him and him go, "No, no, that's not gonna work out." Then I'll cut my own tits off. - But you also know he likes you. He likes you very much. He did your podcast. He brings you on the road. - Okay, sure. - He goes on the medscape and says, "I love Mark." He loves comics. No one wants to be just with their wife without a comic, right? But I also had the Monique bomb. - Monique bomb maybe. - Right in a bomb way. - That's true. Monique bomb is big. - Not just a bomb. That's not funny. - Ah, yeah. - Not just, I'm not gonna laugh. I'm gonna call out that that wasn't humorous. - It sounds like he's saying that's racist and mean-spirited, frankly. - Oh, 100%. - Heesh. - Yeah. - She's my pal who walked up to me. But all right, whatever. - All right. - So now I'm just, I'm at the store. We do the store that night. I'm headlining the store. I got you, I got Sam, Corolla, what a hang, what a night. - Lorepeak. - And Lorepeak? She did great. It's just great to throw your friends up. We got a sold out show, but I'm looming. The whole time just thinking, eh, I wanna get that meal, don't you? You know, I wonder if I can really get on that flight. I don't think she meant it. So I text Sam again. I go, I don't think she meant it. He goes, she texted me. She offered me, I can't go. You gotta go. And I'm like, but I don't have her. It feels weird to just show up and eat with a bag. - Just say, hey, I got your number from Sam. - He wouldn't give it to me. Come on. - No, he's like, hey, look, I don't know what she's like with the number. - By the way, can I just a quick side? - Please. - I had breakfast with Hamilton and he told a very similar story. He opened for Jerry in Worcester. They were going to Paris the next day. - Wow. - And Jess was like, you should come to Paris. And Jerry was like, you should. - Oh. - You gotta. - Well, I never got the you should. - And Brian was like, ah, they don't mean it. It's the same thing. He was like, that's the way they made it. This is a family vacation. They don't want me on the family vacation. And Jerry was like, are you coming or what? And it only was. He didn't have his passport. And he's like, I would have gone. I didn't have anything to do. And Jerry was like, God, he said he was on the phone with Jessica. So she seems to be the plane person. - He is. - And he heard on the phone with Jessica, he heard Jerry go, ah, the passport. Ah. So I think this is their thing. They go, we got the plane. We got the money, come along. I should have told you that if I didn't know that story at the time. - I wish. All right, well, either way, I didn't end up going. We'll get to that later. But the store was great. And then I had to go to Toronto. But I'm going to pass it off to you. I've been hogging. - Well, I want to hear how this thing ended. But. - It ended by me not getting on the the jet. I'll tell you that. - Oh, hey, hey. - Well, I know. What a ride that would have been. - I know. You got to take these things. Believe people when they believe me. You got to believe people when they say things. - Yeah, yeah. What do you say when you say things? But anyways, right now. What time is it? Three, 15. Right now. Anyways, so yeah, so I've lingered around that I had the improv. The next night. - All right. - Say anything. I'm doing a club and I fucking limp.

But boy, it was a crazy, just series of events, getting the drugs, taking the drugs, falling asleep. And then where do we way over? Okay. So then I get to Canada. I do the gig. Then then I look at my schedule. I have another gig in Canada next night at some other casino in Monkton. Oh, New Brunswick. Yes. Monkton. How do you know Monkton? Oh, I know things. Wow. You nailed it. Monkton, New Brunswick. Who did you rip one or what? No, Chuck Xheld. I don't know. Chuck, you got to close those legs. My God. I have no idea. Something reeks. But, uh, so I look at my schedule 5 a.m. Pickup and I go 5 a.m. Pickup tomorrow. Why? And I they go, well, this is two flights to Monkton. One at 5 a.m. I want it 2 p.m. And I was like, well, give me the two. And they're like, yeah, the two is a little, it's, it's risky. And I go, what time to show tomorrow? They go shows at eight. They go, well, how long's the flight? They go one hour. And I go, if I fly for two to three, what's the problem? So they're like, yeah, I guess you're right. I'm like, you got to stop putting me on these 5 a.m. flights. Like you're going to kill me, because it's a 4 a.m. Pickup and all that shit. Right. So he goes, all right. Good, good point. He changes it to the 2 p.m. So I sleep in, I slept 10 hours, just been a wild time, slept 10 hours, wake up, shower, take on the day, get to the airport for two flight delayed four hours. This is why you take the morning flight. I know. And the morning flights are rarely delayed, because the flight is waiting for you. You got that right, man. The 2 p.m. You got to wait for a plane to come in. Oh, yeah. I could have used the jet, but so four hour delays. I'm just sitting at the Toronto airport going in and out of the lounge eating baked beans or whatever the fuck they eat over there. Poutine and pussy. And finally, you know, I'm texting with the guy at the casino in Moncton. He's like, we're going to have to hold the show. We're going to push it back. I have the opener to 45. They won't do an intermission. They're doing all that shit. So it got so bad that I finally landed. I had the thing where you get on the plane. And you're like, we're finally going to go. Oh my god. And I dozed off. I fell asleep for a half an hour. Woke up, hadn't taken off. Isn't that the worst? I try to do a joke like that. You think you're hitting fast four, but you accidentally. Yes. I hit buzz. You're like, Oh, Jesus. I hate buzz. Uh, so, uh, so I wake up, plan and take it off. Finally, we take off. And it's air can of the worst jets of all time. I mean, no TV, no plug, like no, uh, charging. That's got to be just the short ones. I assume the long ones have something. Maybe. I don't know. They got to get this shit together over there. It's stunk. But you finally land. And the owner of the casino, some like, whoa, whoa, whoa, guy picked me up with a feather in his hair. And he's like, step on it. So I'd run outside to jump in his car. We ride all the way to the casino. And I go right on. Oh my god. Yeah. It was crazy. 2,000 people, bananas, middle of nowhere. You know, when you're on stage, you're like, I don't know where I am in the world. I don't know where New Brunswick is. I don't know where Monkton is. I had that all the time just in regular towns. Like, say, Lewis, I'll be like, where the fuck am I? Yeah. It's confusing. I know. But you go, hey, fucking, I'll tell my jokes and see what happens. And comedy's universal, hopefully. And we did a show. And then I met the opener. This guy, Liam, he was super funny. I got the thing where I told yuck yuck. So I was like, send me a bunch of links. I want to use a local guy. And they're all horrible except for this one guy. It was great. So I used him. Then we hung out and we shot the shit. He was like 26 years old. We went to my hotel.
room. Oh boy. And we got a pizza and we just talk comedy for like three hours. Oh nice. Yeah. He had a case of beer. We talk comedy and then I had to be like, all right, I got to kick you out. I got to flight in the morning. But great kid. And it's good to get the perspective of the 2020 mid-20s guy. Yeah. Because he don't have comedies in a whole different world and place and you sound like the old timer. Cause you're like, oh, we do back of my day. We didn't do that. That's new. Oh, whatever. I feel the way all the time people will like message me and be like, hey, you got any advice for a comic starting out? I'm like, no, no, it's different. What's my advice? Send to VHS. You know, read Judy Carter's book. Yeah, exactly. Get out of anybody. I was like sending a VHS with a camcorder. Yes. Like Ed Riegel in Dorchester trying to get a spot, the M.O. Dial. Yeah. You try to build an act. You didn't film anything. You certainly didn't message people be like, can I open for you? That was not that was not a thing podcast didn't exist. No podcast. No social media. No clips. No crowd work. No topical. No. No anything. No nothing. I'm like, I literally, I'm like, I have no idea. Yeah. Hope to get seen by Comedy Central, I guess. Yeah, you hope. Back then, I think five guys were in theaters. Yeah. Now, five guys we know are in arenas. Yes. So crazy. Next time tell your manager, book the early flight and say, make sure I got early check-in. That's the solution early check-in at the hotel. That way you take the seven a.m. flight. You get to Munchen and you go, whatever you do, you're fucking dirty. That's good. Get me book the hotel the night before. So it's ready. Yes. That way you can arrive plenty of time and then you get to see the town. Early check-in is big is how many times you've flown in, you got one eye open, you got jizz in your hair and they're like, oh, your room's not gonna be ready until three and you're like, it's ten. I'm about to do that in Scotland. I'm flying to Scotland and I had to start. I'm like, maybe I'll book it Friday night. So the room's already in my room. That's good. That's not bad, but it's like a three hundred fifty dollar room. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That should give you a discount. Like, I'm only going to use half the time. Come on. Right. But this way at least you can arrive, drop your luggage up. Listen, going to Europe, you want to stay awake anyways. Yeah. Yeah. Well, Scotland Yard. That'll be fun. Four days from now, me, my wife and son are flying coach, overnight. It's gonna be tough. It's gonna be, that's gonna be tough. That will be challenging. Then we land. We have one day in Edinburgh and then take the train to Glasgow, three days in Glasgow, four days in London, five days in Dublin. I mean, I know it's too late, but I would have, I would have switched that. What? Well, I think I would have gone two days in Edinburgh. It's just so pretty. It's so pretty, but we're leaving Friday night to arrive Saturday morning and my show in Glasgow is Sunday. So I'm saying, how many days do you want to be gone for? That's true. So we get one full day in Edinburgh. It'll be fine. You can run around, see the castles and everything. I've been there. Okay. Okay. You've been there. Marty. They'll see the castles. Then we'll take the train to Glasgow. Wow. It's gonna be something else. And what's crazy about this trip is the whole trip, the whole tour was all because Ari and his wife were going to be living in London. No, that's why we did it. Wow. She broke her toe. He's an asshole. They're not even going to be there. Wow. That's literally why I booked the tour. I was like, you're going away for six months. I won't see you for eight months. You'll be in South America. You're going to be running around promoting the show, which by the way, go check out the show. The end. We're both on it along with Shane and Nate and Soder and everybody. Yeah, the other guy Miss Pat. So those are women. So I'm like, so I'm like, I was like, I won't have seen you. You'll be living in London. He's like, yeah, we'll have a two bedroom. You can stay with us. I'm like, free place in London. Two of our friends would have spent time traveling international. Yes. Yes. We'll keep up the traveling internationally. We'll have a babysitter. We'll have a free apartment. I'm doing the UK. They're not even there. Unbelievable. They fucked me again. They fucked you. But at least you get to go to the UK and Scotland and all that shit. We'll have a great time. But I'm spending $75,000 on hotels. Right. Got no babysitter. My father's gay. Yeah. Well, yeah, it's all one hotel. Yeah. You know, it's not like you're buying her a place. Well, I'm getting well, my parents are coming. Oh, I didn't know the parents are. What are you crazy bringing them back to Africa? This was there. This was there. Do it. Wow. The Scottish decamples. They had to go get passports. They've never been anywhere. Whoa. Whoa. Tell them to remember that passport. It's going to be it's going to be insane. But yeah. So we're going to Scotland, Ireland, Northern Ireland, England. Wow. Because someone told me to go to Bristol. I've sold four tickets. Bristol stuff. Yeah. It's a cute town. But it's a tough market. You got that straight up. Boston market. 40 people of Glasgow is not the best market for us either. It turns out I got 11 people coming to that one. But London sold out. Whoa. Belfast. Forget it. There's like nine people coming. Oh, he's Northern Irish. They don't know what the fuck. Belfast is that I did a show there. Two people got into a fist fight. One guy yelled, I suck. And he was like, he showed me his TikTok. He's like, I'm watching TikTok. Fuck you. This is better so I can't do the exit. But I was like, Jesus. I think you nailed it. So anyway, so we'll see how it goes. And by the way, this comes out nine months after the UK tour. I don't know what what month are we in right now? June 8. Yeah. Holy we are in deep summer here. Wow. I'm at the beach right now. June 8. I'm bad. I have no idea where I am. I think I'm at governors this weekend. I thought we were further ahead than June 8, to be honest. I did too. I don't know where the fuck we are. We're in May. We're already in the middle. I guess that'll buy us about a month. Anyway, that is pretty good. Yeah. All right. One, two, three, four. Jesus Christ. Anyways, I mean, I'm at governors this weekend. And then I go to Calgary next week at which the last minute of us. That's a good gig. It's supposed to be in Pittsburgh. They double booked the pit.
