Speaker 2: he'd come to college basketball games late. Who knows, but

Speaker 2: appreciate you. In the postgame press conference, coach Grant said,
Speaker 2: it's not every day you get Dave Chappelle in the house.
Speaker 2: Let's keep it light, stuff that normally goes on the
Speaker 2: second half. Comedy albums. You like comedy albums. These I
Speaker 2: didn't get to yesterday because it was all angsty. In
Speaker 2: case you missed it, Rachel Pegram's new album, Silly, Loud
Speaker 2: and Delightful is out on a Special Thing Records. It
Speaker 2: was recorded live in front of a late night crowd
Speaker 2: and Rachel settled everyone in with a neighborly INTROI before
Speaker 2: getting right to it with her hot takes on top
Speaker 2: of his including bagfoot and white people. Now, is that
Speaker 2: two topics are one? I think it's one, including bigfoot
Speaker 2: and white people, and there's no comma. Probably one topic,
Speaker 2: but anyway, Bigfoot and white people, her personal history of
Speaker 2: being a late comer to art, garfunkle, discovering porn, losing
Speaker 2: her virginity, and a whole lot more so I think
Speaker 2: the topic is bigfoot and white people, one big topic.
Speaker 2: One way to find out. Check out her album Silly Loud,
Speaker 2: Delightful out now on a Special Thing Records also out
Speaker 2: a new album by Somalia. Born in California, raised in Minneapolis,
Speaker 2: based comic a med Kaloff, a men's album is called
Speaker 2: Hobby d Hoy. On it, he shares how to beat
Speaker 2: tough odds, like being born in a Somali refugee camp,
Speaker 2: but growing up to out white the wife of a
Speaker 2: brewery owner, and learning how to walk again after breaking
Speaker 2: his leg at thirty. Oh no, wehe there you go.
Speaker 2: We got through the first half of the podcast, no angst.
Speaker 2: It was all light and fun and silly and no
Speaker 2: politics and you know, none of the stuff we talked
Speaker 2: by yesterday. So oho got that done. To take the break,
Speaker 2: we'll come back. We'll do stuff that normally would be
Speaker 2: in the first half. New Dad Andrew Schultz till the
Speaker 2: l eight times. When I can end my day by
Speaker 2: five forty five pm, I'm good because that means I
Speaker 2: get to spend time with my daughter and just be
Speaker 2: a dad for a while. It's the greatest feeling on earth,
Speaker 2: Schultz said. The second you have a kid, every feeling
Speaker 2: you have is the hackiest feeling ever. Whenever they laugh,
Speaker 2: it's the best laugh in the world. When they smile,
Speaker 2: you melt you'd do anything for them. LA Times is curious, Hey, Andrew,
Speaker 2: is becoming a parent helped you write new comedy, and
Speaker 2: he said, I haven't written a single joke since I
Speaker 2: had my daughter, or since the tour stopped, so now
Speaker 2: it's all focused on trying to make her laugh. The
Speaker 2: world gets really small and has made me reflect on
Speaker 2: comedy material about kids a lot, because when I was
Speaker 2: growing up, my favorite comedians would do this comedy about
Speaker 2: how they kind of hated their kids. And when you
Speaker 2: first have a kid, you're gonna be shocked at how
Speaker 2: cloche all your feelings are. The second you have a kid,
Speaker 2: every feeling you have is the hackiest feeling ever. Whenever
Speaker 2: they laugh, it's the best laugh in the world. When
Speaker 2: they smile, you melt, you'd do anything for them. Good
Speaker 2: job by the La Times, who asked, we're in this
Speaker 2: new era of comedy where more comedians are talking about
Speaker 2: being parents in today's world and being open and honest
Speaker 2: about not only raising them, but the conceiving process, which
Speaker 2: is the heart of your special What's it like being
Speaker 2: so vulnerable, Andrew said, cathartic. It was nice in the beginning.
Speaker 2: It was nice because there are stages. When I first
Speaker 2: started writing it, I wasn't even like writing an hour.
Speaker 2: I was just kind of I was talking about what
Speaker 2: was going through. It was just getting back on stage
Speaker 2: and taking some time off from the last special. And
Speaker 2: then my wife and I were trying to get pregnant.
Speaker 2: I remember coming back from Burning Man, I was going
Speaker 2: to a big birthday party for her mom. But I
Speaker 2: remember that was when we first started trying. I remember
Speaker 2: doing it and afterwards being like, it's probably okay if
Speaker 2: we don't get pregnant this time, just because I didn't
Speaker 2: know it was in my bloodstream at that point. I mean,
Speaker 2: I was at Burning Man for a week and then
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go make a baby. So it didn't happen
Speaker 2: that time, and then another month went by, didn't happen.
Speaker 2: Another one went by, didn't happen. I was like, ooh,
Speaker 2: is it hard to get pregnant. I couldn't fathom it
Speaker 2: was hard. You know, my whole life's been trying about
Speaker 2: not get women pregnant. The amount of stress that'd go
Speaker 2: through and plan bees and all the other crap. Dallycommercial
Speaker 2: dot Com caught up with Lewis Black, who I thought
Speaker 2: was retiring at the end of last year, but he's
Speaker 2: still out there on tour. Oh wait, now I could
Speaker 2: edit this. He he got political here. I'm not doing
Speaker 2: that today. You get bounced to tomorrow Lewis Black John,
Speaker 2: why don't you edit this out because I want you
Speaker 2: guys to know what's going on here. I'm bouncing the
Speaker 2: wid black story Tomorrow. I'm not doing it. Moving on,
Speaker 2: bounce the throwing a Guark talked about her weight loss.
Speaker 2: She up up about using weight loss medications and the
Speaker 2: Internet being the Internet got mad at her. She thanked
Speaker 2: her supporters and told her haters she doesn't owe an
Speaker 2: explanation to anybody. Zarna said, anything else is just exhausting.
Speaker 2: I talked about this recently on a Zarnaguard Family podcast episode,
Speaker 2: not realizing the impact it would have an offering relief
Speaker 2: to so many. I see you, I am you. Proceed
Speaker 2: with proper medical advice and live your best life. Hater's
Speaker 2: gonna hate. We don't engage in the debate. She revealed
Speaker 2: she received hundreds of dms for opening up about the
Speaker 2: use of weight loss meds and wrote in twenty twenty five,
Speaker 2: can we stop the bs of pretending we're perfect? Take
Speaker 2: the meds. Don't take the meds, do your thing with
Speaker 2: kindness around you, and keep it moving. Zarna shared before
Speaker 2: taking the weight loss medicine, she constantly thought about food,
Speaker 2: even when having a meal. She didn't realize that was
Speaker 2: a habit until she started taking the drugs. Brad Williams
Speaker 2: was offered a choice write a five minute bit or
Speaker 2: anything else. He picked five minute bit. He said, it's
Speaker 2: the greatest feeling in the world writing a new joke
Speaker 2: and having it work. He first considered a comedy career
Speaker 2: when he was nineteen. He was at a comedian show
Speaker 2: and tells the story the comedian called me up on stage,
Speaker 2: just asked me questions and answer the questions honestly. I
Speaker 2: didn't try and make jokes. Well, my answers got laughs,
Speaker 2: and that was the first adrenaline needle where I was like, ah,
Speaker 2: this feels awesome. I just started going to open mic nights,
Speaker 2: driving as little as five minutes and as much as
Speaker 2: six hours to do three minutes in front of No One,
Speaker 2: Drunks and other open my comics whoever. He finds that
Speaker 2: the stage is almost like meditation. It's where my focus is,
Speaker 2: it's where all my intention is. I'm only worried about
Speaker 2: what's happening on stage, and that's a wonderful, beautiful, simplistic feeling.
Speaker 2: Brad says, I don't cover politics because I'm not smart
Speaker 2: enough to do it. So if anyone's worried about coming
Speaker 2: to my show and hearing a rally that's either four
Speaker 2: against whatever side they're on, they're not going to hear that.
Speaker 2: But he tells us, I am going to make you
Speaker 2: go through a whole cavalcade of emotions in the course
Speaker 2: of an hour and a half, but ultimately I'm gonna
Speaker 2: make you leave feeling good. And that's what I want.
Speaker 2: I want people to go that was worth a babysitter,
Speaker 2: and that is your Strey free, happy daily comedy news
Speaker 2: for today. All Right, we got through.
Speaker 1: One, uh no for me.
Speaker 2: I recorded these back to back, so that's why I'm
Speaker 2: still feeling the Friday episode. But anyway, see tomor
