Summary
It's Chit Chat Wednesday! Jared is joined by good friend and comic Anthony DeVito. Jared and Anthony dive into everything from Anthony’s wild Sunday night in Austin to his hungover morning as they chat about life on the road and drinking habits. They talk about comedy in Louisiana (and Baton Rouge’s unique energy), the growing comedy scene in Austin, and compare doing comedy there to wrestling in the hardcore CW league. Plus, they dive into the business of comedy, sports media, and, of course, the infamous look-alike contests.
The guys get into the chaos of late-night drinking in Austin, the allure of strip clubs, and the highs and lows of navigating a city full of comedians. From debunking crazy comedy show experiences to debating the value of a $100 bottle of vodka at a strip club, no topic is off-limits.
Danny shares some unforgettable stories from the road, including his take on the latest look-alike contest craze and the strange world of fans trying to match stars like Jalen Hurts and Jeremy Allen White. They also discuss the bizarre humor that comes with being in the comedy scene and why certain trends might signal the end of days—or just another sign of the times.
Plus, they dive into some personal life moments, from Thanksgiving traditions to the difficulty of staying sober on the road. Tune in for a fun-filled, irreverent episode with one of Hollywood’s most iconic stars—Danny DeVito! You won’t want to miss it!

| 0:05.9 | Manhattan. That's right. It's a chit-chat Wednesday. Today's guest is Anthony DeVito. Good friend of |
| 0:10.4 | mine. Just always like awesome to talk to him. Anytime that we do a podcast, I just start right away. |
| 0:17.5 | We just hit record the minute we jump on Zoom and you're going to feel that |
| 0:21.2 | today. We talk about him being in Austin and having a drunken Sunday night and waking up. I literally |
| 0:29.2 | texted him 20 minutes before taping and he was like, I'm in, I'm a hungover. And I go perfect. So we talk about being hungover and drinking and doing shows in Louisiana, |
| 0:43.0 | which I've been down there. |
| 0:45.6 | It's always fun. |
| 0:46.5 | Going to Louisiana in general just feels like another country. |

| 1:18.2 | in it and Joe Rogan being there and he opened a club. And now you're kind of encouraged because |
