Alright, I just put a cocktail. I feel much better. I'm still in Hawaii. I want to thank everyone for tuning into Barry Cats' podcast. I dropped that Sunday.

You know, part of this podcast that I slack on is this moment right here, this opening part where I just kind of talk to you.

0:26.0

I do have stuff to promote. I do have stuff to sell you. I hope you enjoy it. But for the most part, I just want to connect. That's what I love about this podcast.

0:36.0

It is fucking gorgeous in Hawaii. I love it here. I still got a show. That's Wednesday night May 31st. That's tonight. If you listen to this right now. I'm a little late. I took a nap this morning. I had to do press for the show.

0:49.0

I just made a two dozen soda. I'm heading out of the pool in a second, but I'm sitting right now naked on the balcony in a robe looking at the waves breaking. There's a sailboat in the distance. I fucking love Hawaii. If there's a way I could live down here and just I would love it.

1:07.0

Thank you, everyone. I don't know if I said this already or not. I've done. I've done nine iterations of this opening before I decided to come outside and be real and take my time with it.

1:17.0

I wanted to bang through it. Thank you, everyone, for tuning in Sunday to the Sunday special podcast. I dropped with Barry Katz. If you don't know and you're just getting this right now, there's a new one I drop with Barry Katz on Sunday. There's last week's that's a swap cast with Doug stand hope from BISB. That's a great one. I told a joke and I told someone could hit me up that joke about water fountains and segregation times. I appreciate it. I won't know how that joke went. I forgot how I told it, but I want to try to put it in my act.

1:45.0

But yeah, check out his movie I kill JFK there right now. It's hearing today Wednesday May 31st. One night only go to I kill JFK. I'll count if I have thinner near you. It's very easy.

1:57.0

Yeah. That's it. No, I thought it. There's a book I read. Probably I'm going to say I'm going to say probably like eight years ago, six years ago called I'm dying up here.

2:13.0

My dad sent it to me. I don't read a lot. You know that. But my dad sent it to me. He's like buddy. You got to check this out. It's about the comedy scene in the seventies about the store and about about the improv about the premium and mity-sure. Really great. It's about the boycott the strike that went on the comedy strike where they wanted to get paid and all the comics struck and certain comics cross lines. Pick a line certain comics didn't. They're making a TV show about it. It's on showtime. I'm dying to see it. It's executive proofs by

Jim Carrier. It airs this Sunday June 4th at 10 p.m. 9 central on showtime only on showtime. They've got a word with winning actress Melissa Leo in it. She plays Goldie the the female who runs the sunset strip of an iron fist. I think you can get who that is. But more importantly, the dudes in it are Al Madrigal Andrew Santino who's going to be on the podcast soon. We're trying to set a date. I'm just fucking flaking on B and L.A. and Eric Griffin.

3:12.9

Eric Griffin is from Workaholics. The greatest guy in the world. I mean, I did radio together in Tampa. He's fucking amazing. He's a great actor man. He is blown the fuck up. They got to workaholics movie coming out. He's going to be in that too, I think.

3:25.9

I'm super excited for this show. If you don't have showtime, that doesn't mean a fucking thing. You know that. You can go get the showtime app and start your free trial. All you got to do is put in an email address and make up a password and bam. You can stream showtime immediately. You're

So go watch this show. I'm excited for it. I'm really pumped. It's one of the few books I read. So you know when you read a book and then the movie comes out, you're like, well, I'm definitely fucking CMS. I'm going to compare notes. It's amazing. Like I said, Jim Carrey. They're doing press for it. Jim Carrey's got that big ass beard and Jim Carrey is the exact producer. Apparently he just went to the store one night.

4:09.4

He found all the talent working at the comedy store. He found Al, Andrew and Eric all just did sets that night and he was like, you're my cast. And I'm super excited. Showtime has billions with a dance odor. Dance odor is a good friend of mine. He does the bonfire with Jay Bigger. So you know this is going to be a good show. Like I said, I'm dying up here.
