22:10
as fourteen reagan alone and
22:12
the common
22:14
, a lot of years before it ever pay the full
22:17
time and i have to have
22:19
a real job so i worked at a
22:21
warehouse unloading trucks with the way i
22:23
would have high enough make the dot fulfilled
22:25
such thing as i would go to my workers
22:27
and for his on felony one problem with undercover
22:29
boss boss
22:32
is and is it true that you know you can start
22:34
doing clubs and you had been doing comedy and you
22:36
been sort of rising in the world and you pitch this
22:38
show and the story is is that you were on
22:40
your lunch break when you got a phone call saying
22:42
fred armisen the woman comedian
22:45
writer was in a producer show yeah
22:47
so basically we reach out for him and
22:49
i had to it and then they need
22:52
a week later they're like the new the
22:54
for talk to him and i was like well as like
22:57
i thought i'd just awesome
22:59
during my lunch from which is pretty surreal
23:01
to be like wearing to backwards as
23:05
since you have produced this show which
23:07
is now streaming on who live in which he
23:09
asked our have you gone back to the warehouse
23:11
and check them with the guys to see if they've caught again
23:13
a few of them probably not have message
23:16
me and for me why the after that
23:18
if is healthy were that comedian theory on while
23:21
and i also understand that you actually unlike a lot
23:23
of you he got into with some
23:25
of them for his early in their teens he got into
23:27
it fairly late night yeah i
23:30
was a meandering a lot in life and
23:32
i wasn't involved with twenty nine that i found a comedy
23:34
so is it weird situation where i was in
23:36
fact our twenty nine and like
23:39
everybody around me was either like nineteen
23:41
twenty like everybody so i felt like such an
23:43
old man yeah i mean it's fun him and he said
23:45
he saw a man you know things are going
23:48
well my life has meaning i
23:50
know would be great strangers hating
23:52
me see
23:56
our are funny sometimes funny sometimes my
23:58
first year found a comedy i was at open
24:00
mouth and nose is older man who's watching
24:03
and then a few minutes later i look at him and his
24:05
watching something on his lap ah
24:07
man and ,
24:09
i thought a curiosity i went by and see what
24:11
your life and new watson and be humorous
24:13
com and and
24:18
both i'm sorry i'm horrified
24:20
for you and the other comments but
24:23
agree i admire him he admired
24:25
firemen because firemen saw
24:27
him about i like but i want
24:30
to see the to version he
24:34
went to version com and he
24:36
would react enough of
24:38
this and he see somebody who gets paid to do that
24:40
exactly so one of
24:42
the things i was thinking about his you are now in
24:44
on line of comedians who
24:46
are doing a show which is in your case more
24:49
loosely the not based in your own laws the
24:52
problem to be branded example that is jerry seinfeld
24:55
the nine to get a month old little ray
24:58
romano genesis those guys and
25:00
i see you actually ran into central missouri
25:02
oh yeah was really funny how he was doing
25:04
a show very
25:07
, to play the main road night and notice
25:10
that the tablets for leader like go on
25:12
stage and you must have to
25:14
comedy while playing the piano and
25:17
i don't know how to play the piano piano
25:19
you said farm and our most
25:22
humble with post in the circumference ago he
25:24
found he during
25:27
more fat and said would you like to come into effect
25:29
come myself he can definitely
25:32
something walker him very much as
25:37
the most horrific yourself hockey think
25:39
of that i yourself hockey think playing the
25:41
piano and my
25:44
friend were laughing and everybody was laughing
25:46
and i thought they were laughing at me i thought has
25:48
crossed from brussels well as like
25:51
being funny and set of a funny thing
25:53
is i was like wow i'm really getting
25:55
and really making everybody laugh with the
25:57
with
25:59
the
25:59
let me clarify that would i would
26:02
feel he
26:04
was just doing that sort of mouth look of shock
26:06
he did has has has visa but even during
26:08
a year there and i had no
26:10
idea was watching for when i gotta say
26:13
that with my town i made everybody
26:15
laugh i'm really i'm , to come
26:17
from i'm getting to a new level than the family
26:19
and then i printed and then as
26:21
i was thinking that my phone went on fingers
26:23
everybody we have a set of that to that of for jerry
26:26
seinfeld and i was at home my dad and
26:28
he he that and then the preseason
26:30
was who was that guy that that
26:34
a set of set and
26:36
then next thing that happens is jerry
26:38
seinfeld says who was
26:40
that guy he was awful
26:43
yeah yeah it was it may be
26:45
it as it was not a better
26:47
story than him coming up again by now though
