Hi, a quick note before we start.

If you have young listeners with you, please be advised that this podcast contains strong language.

Also, it's serialized, so if you're just joining in here, you should go back and start at episode one of season three.

Okay, let's start the show.

I died last year.

That's a way to segue, right?

I did, I died.

May 3rd.

Last year, May 3rd, I was in Philly.

Jason Weems is performing at a restaurant called Ragtime in Arlington, Virginia.

It has a man cave vibe.

There's a saxophone nail to the wall.

The stage has a ratty blue velvet curtain.

This is a place where Jason can have 45 minutes to try out jokes on people.

And tonight is one of the first times he's testing out jokes about his death.

I feel like 50 sat now, man.

I mean, 50 got shot nine times.

I died of an asthma attack.

Pretty much the same thing.

I'm going to name my first album,

Get Nebulazzo, Diatrine.

Thank you.
