I did six straight nights in Atlanta, fully improvised each night an hour, six nights in row.

By Saturday I was so comfortable on stage with nothing and just going up with the idea that I was like I'm funny I wouldn't be in this job

I wouldn't be able to buy groceries if I wasn't funny right so I'm now able to get past the idea

but am I funny where do I stand in this business? I put out a special

but only so many people saw it and it didn't move the needle the way I thought it would and

I've acted in stuff and I thought that would make me America's darling.

Here's this new guy.

You know, all of the things that we sort of fantasize about in her head.

This moment in time in Atlanta doing this made me go fuck all of your hopes and dreams about what you

think this is and have the most joy in your life knowing you are funny.

Why can't that be enough?

It's brought me paychecks.

So why don't we just be grateful for that? That is the voice of the great Rory Scovol. This is an episode that is a long time in the making and it's one of my favorites we've ever done is an

episode that since we recorded it I think about all the time like I think about

things that he said about improvising on stage and kind of letting your mind wander and

trying different art forms.

It really is a special episode.

This episode actually has one of my favorite working it out sections where we work out material and then literally like if you're seeing me on to our right now, part of my dare about drugs section in my show is from me riffing with Rory in this session which is

sometimes people like Jimmy Kimmel gave me a hard time he was like you don't really

work out jokes on your show when he was on the podcast, but actually like I do.

So we work out that it's really fun.

If you're able to see Rory live on stage, you absolutely should.
