Don't think you just blessed a mood his joint is gonna get you in the moon.

Hey! It's Joe Koi. Another episode of the Koi Pond. We made it, mom.

Corolla Digital. I'm part of the family. Thank you. Jesus.

Chris. Hey. Alright, this is what Nick. Okay, this episode I'm really excited about.

Let me tell you why. When you move to Los Angeles and that's a nice become behalf of everybody that moves to this city of broken dreams with their chance to make it in Hollywood.

We all come here knowing nobody. That's that's the grind that you have when you move to Los Angeles. When you move when you lost Angeles, when you move to Los Angeles, you don't know anybody.

If you do, it's probably because you grew up here, but whatever it is, there's a cutthroat business out here and people are just out here trying to try to make it chase their dreams.

And then you you meet other people that are grinding just as hard and you're glad that you do. And when I moved out here, I moved out here 14 years ago.

And literally the first year I meet this guest right here in his name at my time was Ben Gleberman.

You're going way back. Ben Gleberman. Yeah, it's true. And I'm not even joking. You went up on stage as Ben Gleberman. You had the, by the way, I'm just going to go in short in the name now because when you become Hollywood, you figure out who you're going to be and you change your name and now it's Ben Glebe.

Better believe that. And Ben Glebe is the host of the hit show on game show network called idiot test. Yes.

Which this is what I love about this show that you've created. I don't know if you created or whatever the case may be. I know your executive producer of the show. And it's going on its third season season.

Which is already an amazing accomplishment. Thanks. At third season, you can pretty much just say I'm going to retire. It's going to live. I'm not going to say that it's going to live for a long time. I hope so.

Well, you're not going to retire. Well, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, no, I'm going to say that. You have the comfort ability to go on the road and just do your, your passion, which is stand up and live comfortably. Yes.

But what I'm getting at is in this. What I'm getting at with this, with this whole third year thing. It's that's rare now, man. You know, especially with our peers, especially with our peers.

The crew before us, the 90s, all those cats, they got the tail end of the whole pilot and creating a lot of seasons of it. Seven seasons and then the network supporting it. Yeah, I didn't do that much this year. But let's see what we can do next year. Like now it's like, all right, third episode. I think we're going to go ahead and pull it. It's true. And I've been on those shows too. Yeah, I have to man. I've been on ones with that. That only went three hours. And they're like, you know what? This was a bad idea. Yeah. But I don't even feel like checking the ratings. We didn't like watching it. Yeah. I don't think it's a bad idea.

Yeah, I don't think there are ratings on this one. Joe, so I want you to tell Neilson. Just don't email us tomorrow. Hey, Joe, stop eating at the snack bar and get out of our commissary.

We think it's better financially for the network. Joe, if you put down the tuna sandwich, we need that actually for the Mindy project. They need more tuna sandwiches over there.

And God bless the Mindy project. We have a friend on that show. Fortune is over there. Yeah. And Mindy, Mindy, I haven't seen her in many years, but I knew her briefly. Oh, really?

She stopped by the improv one time on one of the comedy juice nights and said to me, Ben, when are you going to come do our show already?

I'm like, oh, you mean the office? Yeah. Yeah. Anytime Mindy executive producer and star of the office anytime. Look behind you. Do you recognize that?

There's a bicep that thinks it's bigger than it. So it's probably Joshua. That's Josh Wolf. I bet it is. That's Josh Wolf.
