When before we began this interview, Stephen Crowder was in fact wearing pants. He walked into the room not wearing pants to make me specifically uncomfortable.

Well, we do sell them since you haven't plugged my stuff. You've been plugging psychologists at the lot of credit merch store.com.

Oh, God.

So here we are on the Sunday special with Stephen Crowder, who lacks pants.

And we will get to all of the questions for Stephen Crowder.

We will ask him why, indeed, he feels that it is necessary and appropriate for him not to wear

pants and thus to show his junk to the entire world.

But first, let's talk a little bit about talk space, the online therapy company that lets

you message a licensed therapist from anywhere at any time. Look, Stephen Crowder could use a therapist, and you might need to as well. All you need is a computer with internet connection or the Talkspace mobile app. That means you can improve your mental health, even if you had trouble making time for it in the past. There's no stigma attached. I am a big advocate of if you got something on your chest and you need to get it off your chest, you should talk to somebody who knows what they are talking about. And that's why you should be talking about everyday challenges at work or at home. You can chat about life. There are no extra commutes, no leaving the office, no judgment. Remember, therapy isn't just about venting those thoughts or digging into childhood memories. It's about practical everyday strategies for stress management and living a happier

life.

Having a therapist simply provides you a designated person for you to talk to who's trained

to listen and help you make positive changes.

The Talkspace platform has over 2,000 licensed therapists who are experienced in addressing

life challenges we all face to match with the perfect therapist for a fraction, the price

of traditional therapy.

Talkspace.com slash Shapiro. All right, Stephen Crowder. This is going to be hard for me. How many of those are we going to have to do? There are four of those? Because I'm so tempted to screw all of them up for you. I know. And you already did one. So congratulations. You did stumble a little bit. I know. Well, you know, you actually ducking into my camera line and then pouring water into your own mug is always definitely a wonderful thing. You know, I just don't trust you. Well, back at you, dude. I mean, I'm the one wearing pants. So all I can say is that when before we began this interview, Stephen Crowder was in fact wearing pants. He walked into the room not wearing pants to make me specifically uncomfortable because, as most people know, I am deeply uncomfortable with the male body. Well, I think you're deeply uncomfortable with the men and women over armed services, because this is what they wear. They wear ranger panties, or as their known softies in the Navy. So I don't know why you would disrespect them that way. If I were more of a patriot, I'd be staring at your job. You've been plugging psychologists at a lot of credit merch store.com. And of course, everyone knows where the mug club available.

Yeah, if I were more of a patriot, I'd be staring at your junk with more enthusiasm. But apparently I am not. So let's jump into, let's jump into what you do for a living, which is supposedly comedy allegedly. So yes. So Stephen Crowder, for those who don't know. For a guy who's so smart, that was redundant right off of the supposedly allegedly.

Let's try and curb back the flogerness.

Well, supposedly, allegedly. Let's try and curb back the flogering.

Well, supposedly is not a legal term, allegedly is. But let's talk a little bit about how you got to where you are. So he runs a show. Do I need a lawyer present? Do I need half Asian pill Richmond? Is that how? some Jewish, but you know, but Crowder is sitting here and and people should know. The way that I got to know Stephen Crowder was, in fact, as his lawyer. So many, many years ago, we got to know each other because I was recommended to Stephen for some odd reason as somebody who might be able to negotiate a contract. I think it was Andrew Breitbart. It was probably Andrew. It's always Andrew, right? Which made no sense because it wasn't the kind of law that you did.

Right, but I could read a contract. Yeah, and you were Jewish. This is correct. And he trusted you.

And I remember that. You went in and we kind of... Three bad qualities right off the bad.
