00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Dakota on October eleventh. First of all, welcome to the

11
00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>phone here, and I'm excited to chat with you. But

12
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:34.679
<v Speaker 1>have you been to South Dakota before?

13
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:40.039
<v Speaker 2>You know what? I actually have been the Sue Falls. God,

14
00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:44.280
<v Speaker 2>it was like twenty sixteen on a long road trip.

15
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:46.359
<v Speaker 2>I probably shouldn't say this. There used to be a

16
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:48.920
<v Speaker 2>comedy club there. Yeah, and I did a weekend there.

17
00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:51.840
<v Speaker 2>In minute. I think they shut down the weekend after

18
00:00:51.880 --> 00:00:52.439
<v Speaker 2>I launched.

19
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:55.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, but the shows were great.

20
00:00:55.200 --> 00:01:00.240
<v Speaker 2>They were packed and the audiences were we're incredible, so

21
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:07.319
<v Speaker 2>that I was like, wait, what, No, there was no

22
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:08.159
<v Speaker 2>one there, but.

23
00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:12.239
<v Speaker 1>So you had to sold our crowd and you shut

24
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:14.640
<v Speaker 1>them down in the best possible way.

25
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was such a funny. I was like, this

26
00:01:18.079 --> 00:01:21.560
<v Speaker 2>feels ominous, but the people were great. I grew up

27
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.799
<v Speaker 2>in Anchorage, Alaska, which is obviously far away, but it's

28
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:30.280
<v Speaker 2>a very just real, working class good You can like

29
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:32.159
<v Speaker 2>talk to your neighbor, you could ask a springer for

30
00:01:32.239 --> 00:01:35.200
<v Speaker 2>directions people, and that's the vibe I got from the crowd.

31
00:01:35.239 --> 00:01:37.400
<v Speaker 2>You could say any jokes, everyone could laugh at everything,

32
00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:39.920
<v Speaker 2>and so I'm very excited to be coming back.

33
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, very few people here have bodies in their basement.

34
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:46.599
<v Speaker 1>I mean very few, so.

35
00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Well at least one person comes out. I feel like

36
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:50.799
<v Speaker 2>that'll be just good, good tread.

37
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>No, it'll be really good. We're excited to have you

38
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:57.280
<v Speaker 1>here Friday, October eleventh. That the I call the Icon

39
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.159
<v Speaker 1>Event Hall and Lounge, and that is a good place

40
00:02:00.239 --> 00:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>for comedy show. So I think you're gonna love the

41
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:04.760
<v Speaker 1>space for people who have not had a chance to

42
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:07.719
<v Speaker 1>see you, and when you're not shutting down comedy clubs.

43
00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:11.319
<v Speaker 1>What what kind how are you describe? How do you

44
00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:14.719
<v Speaker 1>describe your humor? What what type of like do you

45
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:17.599
<v Speaker 1>get compared to another comic or how do how would

46
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:18.479
<v Speaker 1>you describe.

47
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:21.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm trying to think who I get compared

48
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:24.520
<v Speaker 2>to the most. I don't know. I'm pretty I'm a

49
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:29.520
<v Speaker 2>little observational. It's personal. If you like dirty jokes, they're

50
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:31.639
<v Speaker 2>not all dirty, but I do get dirty. So if

51
00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:34.960
<v Speaker 2>you hate that, that's we're going kind of dark humor

52
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:38.719
<v Speaker 2>and more like societal observations about the things we all

53
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:43.599
<v Speaker 2>do in daily life and nice. Yeah, I've been compared

54
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.759
<v Speaker 2>to such a variety of comics that it's bizarre, from

55
00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Nikki Glazer to Bilbird of Sam Kinnison and Robin Williams.

56
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I love it. That's quite a swave. That's very good.

57
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>I love it.

58
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:55.560
<v Speaker 2>I'll take it.

59
00:02:55.639 --> 00:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>I will take it like if Jeff done them. It's

60
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>like if Jeff Dunham didn't have any puppets. That's like

61
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:08.879
<v Speaker 1>that if if if carat Top used no props, uh puppets.

62
00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:12.879
<v Speaker 2>Became sentient, grew up and started their own probably.

63
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I love it. No, that is that is awesome. Well,

64
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:18.319
<v Speaker 1>the show is coming up intout Falls. Tickets are available now.

65
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:19.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to make it easy for people to find

66
00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.240
<v Speaker 1>those tickets. But I encourage people to get out and

67
00:03:22.319 --> 00:03:24.280
<v Speaker 1>check out the show. And this is a part of

68
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:26.400
<v Speaker 1>a tour You're not flying here just for this. You're

69
00:03:26.439 --> 00:03:28.520
<v Speaker 1>like kind of going all over the Midwest doing a

70
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:29.719
<v Speaker 1>bunch of fun shows, aren't you.

71
00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:33.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I'll be coming in from Omaha the night before.

72
00:03:33.800 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 2>Then I'm at a to Fargo, North Dakota, which that'll

73
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.280
<v Speaker 2>be a first for me. Uh. We're bouncing around all

74
00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:42.400
<v Speaker 2>over all. Be in Montana a little bit later. So

75
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.400
<v Speaker 2>it's been a fun year of going to I'm intentionally

76
00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:49.360
<v Speaker 2>trying to go to the kind of like slightly smaller

77
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.360
<v Speaker 2>cities that maybe don't get as much so that you know,

78
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:54.919
<v Speaker 2>we need from there too.

79
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:58.439
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, we need fun more lack we do. We need

80
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:00.759
<v Speaker 1>as many laughs as we can get. Now. You said

81
00:04:00.759 --> 00:04:02.879
<v Speaker 1>you're from Anchorage, Alaska, but when we were chatting, you

82
00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:05.639
<v Speaker 1>said you live in Los Angeles. Now, those two communities

83
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:12.039
<v Speaker 1>are almost identical, aren't they. There's booms everywhere you go.

84
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:15.319
<v Speaker 2>No, no, it was quite a culture.

85
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:17.319
<v Speaker 1>I was going to say that would have to be

86
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:20.120
<v Speaker 1>quite a difference because I've never been Anchorage. I actually

87
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:21.800
<v Speaker 1>my sister lived there for a while. I should have

88
00:04:21.839 --> 00:04:24.319
<v Speaker 1>gone to visit. But from what I've been told, it

89
00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:27.360
<v Speaker 1>is quite a different pace than something like a Los Angeles.

90
00:04:28.480 --> 00:04:31.399
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, it's much. It's so funny because growing up

91
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:33.360
<v Speaker 2>in Anchorage, I thought I live in a big city,

92
00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:35.079
<v Speaker 2>and then I'm like, that was a fall town. Well

93
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.879
<v Speaker 2>it's just very You know your neighbor there and people

94
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:42.319
<v Speaker 2>get along. You can get across town in twenty minutes

95
00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:44.160
<v Speaker 2>and you take it a mile and twenty minutes in

96
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:46.920
<v Speaker 2>Los Angeles and if you look at your neighbors, they're like,

97
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:48.000
<v Speaker 2>what I want?

98
00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:53.120
<v Speaker 1>So what was it that brought you to LA? Was

99
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:55.519
<v Speaker 1>there like a job opportunity that took you there or

100
00:04:55.519 --> 00:04:57.120
<v Speaker 1>you just wanted to be there? Why did you end

101
00:04:57.160 --> 00:04:58.360
<v Speaker 1>up there?

102
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:00.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, I wanted to do stand up comedy. I

103
00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:03.360
<v Speaker 2>was in college my senior year and I didn't open

104
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:07.519
<v Speaker 2>mic and it went really well, and for some reason

105
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:09.040
<v Speaker 2>I thought you had to go to New York or LA,

106
00:05:09.360 --> 00:05:13.160
<v Speaker 2>and I was just it was literally the aversion from

107
00:05:13.160 --> 00:05:15.120
<v Speaker 2>being in Alaskan weather for so long. I was like,

108
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:16.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to go to LA and try to do comedy.

109
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.279
<v Speaker 2>So I just came out here. I worked for a

110
00:05:19.319 --> 00:05:23.000
<v Speaker 2>few years for a nonprofit helping blind and visually impaired children,

111
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:28.000
<v Speaker 2>and then as the snowball built type, you know, eventually

112
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:30.319
<v Speaker 2>went to do end up.

113
00:05:30.879 --> 00:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>In your person and the thing that's cool it's working,

114
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:37.759
<v Speaker 1>or you probably wouldn't still be there, right, Yeah, no,

115
00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:39.279
<v Speaker 1>the minute.

116
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>This stuffed working. It is so expensive here I am.

117
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:44.439
<v Speaker 2>I will probably be in Supitball. I'm on my way us.

118
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:46.959
<v Speaker 2>I'll be looking at real estate when I get there.

119
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:49.480
<v Speaker 2>Just in faz things take it to no day.

120
00:05:50.199 --> 00:05:52.959
<v Speaker 1>Wow. We are excited to have you here, and if

147
