Speaker 2: Excited to visit with Jerry Erbie. He's a very funny
Speaker 2: comedian from the Sioux Falls area, actually originally from Detroit
Speaker 2: but now lives in Sioux Falls, and he is one
Speaker 2: of the comics that will be joining me on Friday
Speaker 2: in t at Titans Tavern Event Center, two fifteen South
Speaker 2: Main Avenue. A big thank you to Top Gum Dental
Speaker 2: and Casey Jorgensen, financial advisor with Edward Jones. They are
Speaker 2: the sponsors of the event on Friday. We're raising money
Speaker 2: for the American Legion in Tea and the event is
Speaker 2: held right next door at Titans Tavern also known as
Speaker 2: the ta Event Center. Jerry, I'm excited to work with
Speaker 2: you on Friday. How you doing, sir, I'm going wonderful today.
Speaker 2: I about you, so I am fantastic. Now we're doing
Speaker 2: a fun event on Friday, I'm excited to work with you,
Speaker 2: and I'm also excited to work with Logan. And Logan
Speaker 2: is an Army veteran. You're an Air Force veteran. And
Speaker 2: this is a really nice fundraiser for the American Legion
Speaker 2: in Tea. So it's a fun event. You don't have
Speaker 2: to be a veteran to come out, but if you
Speaker 2: come out and join us as a veteran, I think
Speaker 2: you'll get a little more from it because both Jerry
Speaker 2: and Logan have some very funny comedy. And how long
Speaker 2: have you been doing comedy, Jerry? This is something that
Speaker 2: you've done just recently.
Speaker 1: Right, I've been.
Speaker 3: Doing a comedy since February of twenty twenty, so almost
Speaker 3: five years now, and.
Speaker 2: You've done more in the last five years than most
Speaker 2: comics do in ten years.
Speaker 3: Thanks for saying that.
Speaker 2: No, seriously, you've done very very well. And I'm a
Speaker 2: big fan of Jerry Irby and Jerry Irby's comedy. He's
Speaker 2: a hilarious guy, but he's also an awesome guy. And
Speaker 2: like I've said before, I enjoy watching the jokes where
Speaker 2: I get to see you at an open mic, and
Speaker 2: you do those from time to time, and you'll try
Speaker 2: out a new joke, and then the next week it'll
Speaker 2: be a little different. Then it'll be a little different.
Speaker 2: And you do a really good job of actually bringing
Speaker 2: these jokes forward and further and further and further until
Speaker 2: they're just right for a paid show. And to me,
Speaker 2: that's so much fun to watch. And it's so fun
Speaker 2: to watch you do that and make those jokes go
Speaker 2: through that progression.
Speaker 3: Man, you make me blush. Well, it is one of
Speaker 3: my favorite things about comedy, being able to do that,
Speaker 3: you know, going out there and seeing what's funny about this?
Speaker 3: And oh that's funny. I just did to say it right?
Speaker 3: Well how about this? And yeah, that is one of
Speaker 3: my favorite parts about the whole process.
Speaker 2: Well, and your I would say, your humor is very
Speaker 2: witty humor. It's it's humor.
Speaker 1: That you know.
Speaker 2: You you put a lot of time and effort into it.
Speaker 2: It's not just like my my jokes are lazy. I
Speaker 2: just got and tell people what really happened, and I
Speaker 2: keep doing dumb stuff like I don't have to put
Speaker 2: a lot of thought into it. I just tell people
Speaker 2: all the dumb things I do. But you have done
Speaker 2: such a good job of writing material that I don't
Speaker 2: know when you think this stuff up, because you know,
Speaker 2: you're a busy dude, but you somehow you come up
Speaker 2: with just the funniest stuff. And again, it's very witty
Speaker 2: and fun to watch.
Speaker 3: Thank you, thank you. Most of it is like I
Speaker 3: said before, it's just things that make myself laugh throughout
Speaker 3: the day. If I could make myself laugh at something
Speaker 3: and think I could translate that audibly to at futt
Speaker 3: of people, you know, and it just goes from there. Absolutely,
Speaker 3: that's the whole start of the process.
Speaker 2: And how long ago would you say it was that
Speaker 2: you realized that you wanted to do comedy. You started
Speaker 2: doing it like four or five years ago, But when
Speaker 2: was it the first time you thought I would like
Speaker 2: to try that.
Speaker 3: Oh man, Since I was a little kid, way small.
Speaker 3: It's actually one of the first things I remember wanting
Speaker 3: to be when I grew up, you know, And it's just,
Speaker 3: you know, life kind of took over and where I
Speaker 3: was living prior to twenty twenty, there was no comedy club. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so once I had the opportunity to, you know, try
Speaker 3: it out, films right on it.
Speaker 2: And I remember way back when you were brand new
Speaker 2: because I was also going to as many open mics
Speaker 2: as I could back then. I try to get to
Speaker 2: as many as I can now. Life is just a
Speaker 2: little too busy right now. But one of these days
Speaker 2: maybe I'll get to more. But I remember going and
Speaker 2: watching you and and it was like I said, to
Speaker 2: watch the progression of the jokes, and you did such
Speaker 2: a good job of taking something that was already funny.
Speaker 2: And then next week it's even funnier, and then the
Speaker 2: following week it's even funnier, and I just think that's
Speaker 2: there's a talent right there.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And you know there's always that feeling of
Speaker 3: oh yeah, the crowd's laughing at that. They agree with me,
Speaker 3: this is funny. So there. You know, of course, thinking
Speaker 3: back on that, you're started thinking of more funny things
Speaker 3: to add on to it.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, it's just a never ending cycle.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm excited to work with you again on Friday.
Speaker 2: Thank you very much for being a part of this
Speaker 2: with me, And I hope I didn't get you in trouble.
Speaker 2: You got a busy weekend and he decided that he
Speaker 2: was going to do this with us on Friday before
Speaker 2: the busy weekend.
Speaker 1: Everything's going to be okay though, right, Oh.
