He didn't remind me of anybody. Right. Set ups, delivery, punchlines, premises, all of it seemed like unique. No, this is... Recognizable and relatable, but unique. Right, exactly. Yeah. No, he's... I mean, that's what's so cool. This is like the whole globe has opened up. It's like all these voices from all those different stuff. It's fucking great time to be alive. It really is. It is. It is. And this art form, you know, I've been thinking about this a lot, and I really think I'm gonna do something about this. I wanna document how everybody does it, because I think this is the only art form that is a global worldwide art form that's enjoyed by everybody. Yeah. That's not really documented. Yeah. Right? Like musicians, it's documented how they write songs. It's documented how you learn to play music. You can go to school for it. Yeah. You know, you can take classes online. When you're a comic man, you gotta kind of figure it out on your own. Yeah. And I think we would all benefit from some sort of documentation, and particularly for the people coming up. The girls and guys coming up that are learning how to do Stand Up Now would benefit tremendously from like a guy like you breaking down how you do it, how you started, what's different now. Right. So I'm thinking about doing a series. Oh, yeah. And I'm probably gonna put it on YouTube. That's cool. Like a podcast and do it like a podcast, but call it like the comedy creation series. Ah, I'd love to be a part of that. Yeah. I wanna get everybody. Like as many people as I can. Tell me how you started, when did you start, what year, what was your first club, and just break down how you do it. Yeah, that's a great thing because it's so varied. Yes. You know, from doing the show with Fortune. Shout out to Fortune Femster. Yeah, to the great Fortune. She's hilarious. Yeah, her special's up right now. Is it? Sweet and salty. Netflix. Netflix as well? Yeah, yeah, yeah. She's so great. And we're interviewing all these comedians. Jesus Trejo came in today. I love him. Love him. And he's such a unique story. So different. His parents coming from Mexico. He's got to care for them. He goes down to Mexico where there's like this new scene coming up of Spanish speaking comedians. I mean, that story, you put that one and then you talk to, you know, Ryan Hamilton, two totally different planets. Yep. All in the same form. Yep. It would be great to watch. Fuck yeah. It would be amazing. That would be really good. The world needs to know how these fucking people do these things. Yeah. Because it's like, if you don't know anybody that can sit down and talk to you about how they do it, it takes too long to figure it out. Oh, completely. Completely. Like if you're in Pittsburgh, I don't know what kind of scene Pittsburgh has. I'm sure it's got some kind of a scene, but how many people really? Yeah. I mean, and couldn't you really- And how many really good ones are still there that you can really learn from? How do you find out? Yeah. You know? No, I know. That's a good thing. I mean, when Seinfeld put out the documentary, like people still listen to watch comedian, like young comics. Oh yeah. Because there's very few roadmaps out there. There's very few glimpses into how someone is doing it and how they're working. There's been other stuff where people will show themselves on stage and they're just backstage drinking or just going about their day, like a road dock kind of a thing. But very few about process. Yeah. Very few. Yeah, process and how much you've adjusted. What do you do differently now? What do you think about your old stuff? What would you do differently if you start over again? Yeah. It's good stuff. Yeah, it's a weird art form in that it really doesn't have a class you can take. Nope. Well, they have classes. They don't really. You know what those classes are good for? Getting you on stage. They're good for that. Yeah. I mean, very few classes are taught by legit comics. Right. Right. Maybe there's some of them out there that I'm not aware of. Yeah. Every class that I've ever seen has been taught by scrubs. Right. You know, they probably didn't give you bad advice.
