Sam Morril
I love a solo app.
Mark Normand
Good to be back, Han Solo.
Sam Morril
How you been?
Mark Normand
Whoa. Good. I just had the fourth of July. I was gone for six days. My flight got canceled.
Sam Morril
So you were struggling out there?
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah, it's a suburb. The hard part of the suburbs is there's kids everywhere, which is great. It's fun. One kid broke my watch, so that's gone.
Sam Morril
Oh, shit.
Mark Normand
Well, we're just all wrestling all day, you know, I got headlocks. They're so little. I feel like, you know, the Hulk.
Sam Morril
It is fun throwing a kid. Oh, great bit about throwing the kid in the pool.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
That's the closest you can come to abusing a child. Throw them into the pool. That's one of my favorite.
Mark Normand
Whole face changed. Yeah, that's a great bit. Oh, yeah, Peters is on the slushies.
Sam Morril
Slushy maker. Did someone send this or were you just hankering?
Mark Normand
I was hankering. These are going for sale on Amazon. My. My brother in law had one of these at the. The fourth of July.
Sam Morril
I love a slushy maker.
Mark Normand
Oh, we did margaritas, we did daiquiris, Kahlua. What do you call it? Pina colada.
Sam Morril
I love a. An ice maker too, but I bought the shittiest one. It takes like four hours to make, like, this much ice. I'll just use a tray. What are we doing?
Mark Normand
Yeah, right. That sucks. So what do we got in here? A little bodega cat and cherry coke. Who looks like cherry Pepsi. They hate that guy. Yeah, Pepsi over.
Sam Morril
Some people claim they can taste the difference. I don't think I'm one of them.
Mark Normand
Come on. Mm.
Sam Morril
Dude, that's fucking incredible.
Mark Normand
That was like the kid version of banging a trans girl on accident. Like, what? It's Pepsi. I had no idea.
Sam Morril
That's language now. They used to be Lenny's. Another language.
Mark Normand
Right, right.
Sam Morril
Like, all right.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah. New identity.
Renan
I got more Jewish. Oh, by the way, I went to my bagel place. New brand new bagel place on my block. I went in, no bagels.
Mark Normand
What?
Renan
I was like, you're two days open, you don't have any bagels? You sold out. He was like, we don't have our license yet to sell bagels.
Mark Normand
But there's a bagel license, though.
Renan
Yes.
Mark Normand
I wonder who owns this. No bagel, no bagel, no bagel.
Sam Morril
Damn. No. So what do you need for a license?
Renan
I don't know. They're just. They're selling sandwiches. I was like, not even on A bagel. They're like, no, we don't have that license yet.
Mark Normand
That's a lie.
Sam Morril
You can't open a bagel place without bagels.
Renan
Thank you.
Sam Morril
That's crazy.
Mark Normand
It's just bread with a hole in it. So can you have a bread? Do you need a bread license or is it.
Sam Morril
Do you need a. Yeah, we only have garlic knots today, so you can make the hole. Yeah, what the hell? I'll look at crazy. That's crazy.
Mark Normand
Look it up.
Sam Morril
I will tell you they don't need any more business. But Apollo bagels, have you had that shit?
Mark Normand
No.
Sam Morril
It's unreal.
Mark Normand
Really.
Sam Morril
It's one of those, like, annoying influencer places with a line, but they deliver. It's so good.
Mark Normand
Wow.
Sam Morril
I walked by and there was no line. I was like, I gotta try it. Yeah, it's that good, dude. It's like a thin, crispy bagel.
Mark Normand
Oh, thin bagel. I like.
Sam Morril
And it's got the, you know, the smoked salmon, the dill, the capers, the onions. It's a fucking. And I love an open face. Yes. I don't like that we just gave in to the sandwich. Always. You're getting less bites, right? I like the open face.
Mark Normand
Are you. Do you scoop it if it's a fat bagel?
Sam Morril
No.
Mark Normand
Okay.
Sam Morril
It feels like sacrilege. You get looks.
Mark Normand
Oh, really?
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
I think in the New York bagel place, you're like, scoop.
Mark Normand
All right. Fucking damn. Geez.
Sam Morril
Coming out to you. It's coming out to your dad in the 80s. That's the look.
Mark Normand
You get scooped bagel. All right. That's a Larry David episode. I figured him walking into the temple and they're like, he's a scooper.
Sam Morril
That is a great episode. The whitefish.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. The sable.
Sam Morril
So seriously, you take your sandwiches.
Mark Normand
That's what they name it after him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's like, no one's getting sable.
Sam Morril
It's true. It's two fishes. It's two white fishes together. It's a lot.
Mark Normand
Is that what it is?
Sam Morril
I think that's what it was.
Mark Normand
Oh, God.
Sam Morril
You want the turkey? I love a turkey sandwich.
Mark Normand
Love turkey. Is turkey your go to Go to, Then roast beef, then ham?
Sam Morril
I might go ham, then roast beef. But yeah, turkey's just fucking solid.
Mark Normand
Retail bakeries require a food service permit and staff must f. Okay, so it's not a bagel license to sell bagels commercially. Oh, wait. While home based bagel operations are governed by new. Okay, I guess so.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Wow. Now I picture like a meth Head type guy making bagels in his trailer. Like breaking bagel with mom.
Sam Morril
Donnie in office. You better get ready for that. Jews and trailers. That'd be a fucking series. Damn, dude.
Mark Normand
I got a lot of Jewish actors. That's a different kind of trailer. But, yeah. So I was on the subway the other day, and I'm in Brooklyn going to Manhattan to do shows. Got a pod going. I see a guy come on one stop in, and he goes, mark Norman. I go, hey, what's shaking? He goes, I'm a young comic. I got to pick your brain. I was like, oh, there's no escape. He had me. It was like a mariachi band where
Sam Morril
you stuck there and, I mean, the mariachi band leaves.
Mark Normand
That's true. That's the big truth.
Sam Morril
The mariachi band. You got a minute?
Mark Normand
You know what. What was the. Right. When he said, so how long did it take for you to, like, to make it? And I was like, well, you're fucked if you're worried about that. You're not, you know, you're not doing it right. He's been doing it a couple of years. I got a bit about this. He's like, do break down the bits.
Sam Morril
And I'm like, but there were people like that when we started. And now I think with the social media shit, it's gotten out of whack.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
Because they're seeing people explode. Immediate. Like, no, no. It's like the comics we knew growing up who look at, like, road calendars, and it would be like, this fucking hack is headlining there. Yeah. Don't look at the worst guy headlining on the calendar. Look at the best dude.
Mark Normand
Good point. Yeah. But he was doing, like the. I don't know what I need to do. I don't know how I got to make it. And I'm like, oh, just keep going. He's like, how do I get an agent? What's the story? And I'm like, the fact that you don't know. This sucks for me. Is weird that, like, being a comedy, you got to be a little self aware. There's zero self awareness. And he was a sweet guy, super nice guy. But I'm like, the fact you don't know this is a faux pas is a bad.
Sam Morril
How many stops are we talking?
Mark Normand
We're talking from Atlantic Barclays to 14th Street, Union Square.
Sam Morril
Whoa, that's a long one.
Mark Normand
That's a long one.
Sam Morril
That's always when the train goes out, too. I know when you're in a conversation like that. They're like, oh, we have some maintenance on the track ahead. Fucking kill me.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Oh, God. It was. Do other people deal with this? It's like if a. If Bledsoe is on the train and a young high school quarterback group. Ledso. Yeah.
Sam Morril
All right.
Mark Normand
That was a poll Culpepper. Whoever.
Sam Morril
If Mark stop watching football in 2004.
Mark Normand
Michael Vick, Brady, Jerry Rice. What?
Renan
Brady took over for Bledsoe, so it would be young Brady.
Mark Normand
All right. Young Brady sees Bledsoe on the train. Is he like, so how do you get a spiral? What's this? What's the deal with the end zone?
Sam Morril
I'm gonna go up to a quarterback. You're like, what do I do? And he's like, you don't look like you have it. I'm like, I'm working on it. No, I mean, it's. You know, he clearly respects you, but I think you got. You gotta make the boundary there of like.
Mark Normand
I know.
Sam Morril
Well, it was nice to meet you. Best of luck with everything. I gotta watch my set or whatever. Yeah.
Mark Normand
I just can't. I can't do it. Yeah, it's tough, but I come on here and trash it. This is way worse. Yeah, you could.
Sam Morril
You could have just said it to him and be like, oh, I'm sorry. Instead, you're like, yeah, 100,000 people here now.
Mark Normand
I know he did the. He's like, what are you doing? And I was like, I got a couple spots. He goes, can I tag along? And I was like, golly, man.
Sam Morril
It's tough.
Mark Normand
It's tough. But I caved, and he's coming on the show.
Sam Morril
God damn it.
Mark Normand
Mark.
Renan
Come on in. Renan.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
No, we. I happened to be with a kid on the street, but he was great. He was actually, like, awesome. He totally, like, gave me an out. And I liked him enough that I was like. I gave him my number.
Mark Normand
Whoa.
Sam Morril
And now I feel like now I have like. And I fucked him. And I think. No, I think. I think now I have, like, stock. I'm, like, rooting for him, you know, I'm like. Because, you know, he's like. He did his Montreal audition. He's like, I didn't get it. And I was telling him, you know, it took. You know, Mark. It took me, Mark, five years. I think it was our fourth or fifth year.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Yeah.
Sam Morril
And is it. Yeah, you know, it's okay. You don't want to go before you're ready and stuff. And, you know, I don't know what it is anymore, the fest.
Mark Normand
But I don't either.
Sam Morril
But yeah. When they give you the out, you're like, that's beautiful.
Mark Normand
But you got a vibe from him that he wasn't a weirdo?
Sam Morril
No, he was cool.
Mark Normand
Yeah. That's the difference.
Sam Morril
It was the second time I saw him, too. First time I saw him was on the street, and the second time was at his show, and I was like, all right, he's cool.
Mark Normand
Yeah. I mean, we're like hot women now, where people are like, let me get your number. Let me get to. Let me chat with you. And I'm like, I don't want to chat with you. And not to be. Not to say we're. When I met Seinfeld for the first time, he gave me his number. And I go, I'll never use this. And he goes, use it, use it. But that's the key. You got to go, I'm aware that you're huge, and I'm nobody. And putting some. Some distance between us, this guy was no distance. I mean, just.
Sam Morril
Just even, like, in a casual conversation, you need a little distance.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. You need to breathe. You need to breathe. It's. It's like going up to a girl and being like, can we fuck? You have to go, hey, can I take you out?
Sam Morril
I'll stop doing that.
Renan
Okay.
Sam Morril
I told you that in confidence. I didn't know that would make their ass.
Renan
Are you guys entering your mentor phase?
Sam Morril
No, this is not before. Anytime you're. It's a young comic, and they see a working comic, I think, you know, But I was very much like, when I did that, I was also very. I was nervous, you know, I would definitely always give him it out and be like, tell me if I'm bothering you, or.
Mark Normand
Yes, that. That's huge. That goes a long way. Just that, like, that little wall up.
Sam Morril
Because, you know, Mark is also leaving home where there's a baby, and he needs these. Like, train is a moment where you can kind of zone out a little bit and get into, like. Because it's like Louie, when he was on this pod, saying, like, Chris Rock told him, turn off the radio. Even, like. Like, you need kind of those train rides where you just kind of zone out and let your mind wander, I think so. I totally. I get it.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Yeah. It was. It was hard. Your whole train ride, you're like, all right, I got 30 minutes to look at my notes, listen to a set. That's all good.
Sam Morril
It happened to me once on a plane ride where a guy's like, I'm a huge fan.
Mark Normand
Whatever.
Sam Morril
I was like, oh, thanks, man. And then. And then, of course, we're seated right next to each other on the long flight. And he was cool, though. He was like, I totally get you gotta work. I was like, thanks, man.
Mark Normand
Ah, there you go. There you go. I had a rig pig. I was going up to Edmonton, and the rig pigs are the guys that work on the oil field.
Sam Morril
Oh, totally.
Mark Normand
And they're like real blue collar guys.
Sam Morril
Blue collar. But they make a good living on doing that.
Mark Normand
Great living.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
But I sat next to him, and the whole ride he's like, so, what's Tom Segura like? And I'm like, he's a nice guy, funny guy. And then you get that moment of like, all right, I think we're done. And then a minute and a half later, he's like, bert Kreischer, really? That drunk? And you're like, shit, I can't get up.
Sam Morril
Tom wrote a whole book about this. Complaint interactions.
Mark Normand
I know. So it's. It's very nice, but it's. You gotta have some. Some buffer.
Sam Morril
It's like any conversation.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Anytime you talk to anyone. Because even any conversation you have, you ever talk to someone and they just don't let there be a moment of silence that those interactions stress the out.
Mark Normand
Me too. Me too. And then you want to get a line in, like, oh, some fans, like, hey, I love your stuff. And you're like, oh, I got a funny thing to say here. Then they step on it and you're like, well, what. What are we doing here? But I think what it is is they listen to 18 million hours of you. This is their turn.
Sam Morril
Right?
Renan
Right?
Mark Normand
That's what they. That's how they see it. Like, I gotta get my shit out.
Sam Morril
I remember opening for marin, like, in 2010 or something.
Mark Normand
Wow.
Sam Morril
And it was right when WTF blew up. And I asked him about what.
Mark Normand
What club?
Sam Morril
Rooster T. Feathers.
Renan
Woo.
Mark Normand
Sunnyvale, California.
Sam Morril
And he was telling me about dating and how it was just hard to date because he's like. He feels like these women know everything about his life.
Mark Normand
Yeah, true.
Sam Morril
And then it's like, you know, you put these podcasts out, and if women want to, they could fucking. They could dig in and be like, oh, yeah. Oh, you ever do this? And you're like, I don't think so. Like, well, I heard you did it on this podcast. You're like, fuck, yeah, I was trapped.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah. Oh, that's tough. How was that weekend with him? Because that's. That club has no real green room.
Sam Morril
Yeah. It's like an Outdoor green room.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
And the mic. I remember the mic kept breaking, and he was like, as comedians, we need one thing. And he ain't wrong. Don't make the mic break. But no, he was cool. He was. He'd hit me up and be like, you want to get some Vietnamese sandwiches?
Mark Normand
Banh Mi.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Nice.
Sam Morril
So, yeah, we get a lot of Vietnamese every day. We get a Vietnamese sandwich for lunch.
Mark Normand
That was. I remember the first time doing that club. It's so suburban. Yeah. It's, like, out by Silicon Valley. It's all houses with white picket fences, and it's the opposite of New York. It couldn't be more different.
Sam Morril
Totally.
Mark Normand
Although the club, I feel like if they were very squeamish, anything dark, they'd be like, whoa.
Sam Morril
Oh, dude. I remember working out that alligator baby joke. That was a club. A woman walked out and yelled, you suck. As the door slowly shut. And it's like, you know, that was a pretty. I guess some people would say dark bits, so you gotta work it out somewhere. And it is funny as hell that you work out in just, like, suburban strip malls.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Let me drag my dead baby chunk through Sunnyvale, California.
Mark Normand
That's the place to do it. It's a good room and a good club.
Sam Morril
It was good.
Mark Normand
And there was not really a lot of stakes there. I had an opener there. I wish I could remember his name. He was. You know, you magically get an opener. You're like, this guy's unbelievable. This guy has, like, a great comedy mind, good instincts, great writing. God, what was his name? He's a tall guy with long hair. So funny. But now every time I see a roast or he's on it, he's in the writer's credits. So I was like, good for him. He made it nice. I camera his name. I'm sorry, L.A. guy. Very funny.
Sam Morril
Nice plug.
Mark Normand
Sorry.
Sam Morril
He's great. He's one of the best. I'd love to get him work, but I can't remember anything.
Mark Normand
He's. He's doing fine. He's writing in every show. Every.
Renan
Every 100 comic. Comics are taking credit for what you just said right now.
Mark Normand
That's true. They'll cut a clip of this. Great. It's a wide net I'm spreading here, but I can't. Owen or I'll never think of it. Damn, he was good. I was in awe. He was hard to follow. And he was just a regular old nobody. Not nobody, but, like, random comic.
Sam Morril
It's a mixed feeling when you draw one of those openers because A part of you is so happy for comedy that a young buck is coming up and crushing. The other part is like, I got to follow this shit.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It was tough.
Sam Morril
At least if it's good, at least you're like, all right, I got to step it. I'm in that phase of new material now where, you know, I always start the new hour too dirty.
Mark Normand
Well, dirty works because it works.
Sam Morril
So like.
Renan
But.
Sam Morril
And that's fine for a little bit, but then you got to weed out something like this one. And then I. I was trying to, you know, try to get away with like all new. And you have your 15. And they let me lay it at the Cellar. And it was like probably like 17, 18. I did.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah. Big.
Sam Morril
And then. And then you're like, all right, let me dig into the other new. And then you're like, this is too dirty. I could feel like the crowd knew it was too dirty. They're like, yeah, no, we got it right. Enough about your dick. You're middle aged at this point.
Mark Normand
Yeah, the new stuff is tough. And I did. I did a six week or six day vacation. That first set back with new material. You feel like your gun is not loaded. You know, you're out there like, now you're head, your pistol whipping because you got nothing left.
Sam Morril
Yeah. I had a set of the seller and I'm outside and the host goes, you're on, you're on next. I was like, oh, cool. Got it. So he goes in and I guess he didn't see me in the room. He's just like doing six, seven minutes or whatever he did a while. Maybe it was five minutes, I don't know, but it felt long. And I'm talking to Mike Vecchione. We're just like bouncing jokes and stuff. And I'm like, why is he doing so much time? This is weird. And he's like, oh, yeah, it's weird. And then I just hear him go, where the hell is this dumb guy? And I just like get in his sight line and he goes, oh, sorry.
Mark Normand
Oh.
Sam Morril
I'm like, I'm here.
Mark Normand
Whoa.
Sam Morril
And then he's always, I'm sorry, that was my mistake. And he pushed me on. It's like you tap into some dude, just deep anger. I was like, I've been here the whole time.
Mark Normand
Well, you get. You get nervous up there when it's just.
Sam Morril
You totally, totally miscommunication. But it's a fun moment when you see a guy like kind of snap.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
And then have nowhere to Put it because I was there. But it's funny when you see a dude just kind of have like a semi meltdown.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
When we were doing bad rooms all the time, I had him all the time.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah, you just snap snap sets all the time.
Sam Morril
Thank God they don't have footage of us doing, like, prom shows from 2011.
Mark Normand
Oh, God, those were wild.
Renan
From 2011 or 2014.
Sam Morril
What's that? Whoa. What's that?
Renan
I have no idea. I just found it on the Internet.
Mark Normand
I was looking to be one of the comedy's most eligible backs.
Sam Morril
What the hell is that from?
Renan
I don't know.
Mark Normand
In Touch magazine. It looks like one of those rags you see at the airport.
Renan
I was looking up on the Internet.
Mark Normand
That's wild.
Sam Morril
Hello, Samuel.
Mark Normand
This is the picture they chose too, for a bachelor.
Sam Morril
Yeah, it looks rough.
Mark Normand
Well, I mean, not saying you look bad, but, like, give me a guy in a suit, you know, at a. At a Fallon or something. This is like, hey, ladies. Ha.
Sam Morril
2011. What magazine?
Renan
I think it's 2014.
Mark Normand
Okay. Wow. That's hilarious.
Sam Morril
Tell all. I'm sure that moved a lot of fucking magazines. Sam. Morrell's. What?
Mark Normand
He's ready to tell all.
Sam Morril
Holy shit.
Mark Normand
This is inquiry. You know, it's kind of looks like a real shitty kind of. What do you call those? Those leafy square magazines.
Sam Morril
I think this is like a red Eye thing. There's probably. I think this is a joke.
Renan
Oh, maybe.
Mark Normand
Maybe.
Sam Morril
Greg. Jono. Yeah.
Mark Normand
This. Good call. Good detective work there.
Sam Morril
Yeah, dude, I. I sleuth that.
Mark Normand
Yeah. What'd you do for the fourth? Did you set your AC for 78?
Sam Morril
We claimed we did.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Everyone claims they set it to 78, but no, I'm. You know, you. It's not livable.
Renan
Dude, can you explain what that your mayor Mom?
Sam Morril
Donnie. Just saying, you know, we don't want a power outage in the city. And then there was one, so everyone set it to 78 their AC units and it was like, dude, come on. Yeah, I mean, 78, when it's that hot outside, it feels like 88 in your.
Mark Normand
Totally. So. Yeah.
Sam Morril
No, it does nothing.
Mark Normand
But no fireworks.
Sam Morril
No, I didn't see.
Mark Normand
Oh, man.
Sam Morril
I'm good with fireworks.
Mark Normand
Well, the videos of the train ride,
Sam Morril
it's like I'm seeing them.
Mark Normand
Train ride over the bridge. Pull some of those up on Instagram.
Sam Morril
No, those are cool. I saw those, but it's like.
Mark Normand
It's pretty cool.
Sam Morril
Matteo lives in my building. He was mad they wouldn't let. Like, you could only bring One person on the roof. And I was like, do you really need to see the fireworks? It's more of a social thing, I guess. You know what? I saw his play. I saw Chicago on Broadway. Matteo plays Billy Flynn, the lawyer in Chicago. On Broadway. Matteo Lane. Unbelievable. He killed it.
Mark Normand
Wow. On Broadway. That's like gay mountaintop. Like, that's. You made it to Mount Olympus.
Sam Morril
He's the top. And. No, he killed it, man.
Mark Normand
Good for him.
Sam Morril
He was so good. He can see he's got pipes. Yeah, he looks great. It's fun as hell. It's a fun show.
Mark Normand
Chicago's great. I've seen Chicago. Yeah, it's awesome. Good for him. Congrats, Mateo.
Sam Morril
But, yeah, I don't give a fuck about that. Yeah. It was so hot. I went to a Yankees game. I lasted maybe two innings.
Mark Normand
Damn.
Sam Morril
It was a heat wave. It was like 100 degrees. Then there's a rain delay. A rain delay in a heat wave is such a Fuck you.
Mark Normand
That's true. Yeah. Where's your God now?
Sam Morril
Well, there's nowhere to go. You're just kind of stuck around. I'm like, how long can I hang in the.
Mark Normand
Yeah. In the merch store. Also, you're supposed to control the weather. What the hell? We.
Sam Morril
We had to call into our people.
Mark Normand
Wow. Look at that. He made it. Love the guy. Camera phone filming this. Oh, my Lord.
Sam Morril
I got that sweet Chicago bootleg dude.
Mark Normand
Hell, yeah.
Sam Morril
He killed it. I was proud, man.
Mark Normand
That's great. Yeah, I was. I was out in the burbs with the in laws. We had. We had a ninja. We had one of these. So. Drinking heavily. There it is. Look how cool that looks on the train.
Sam Morril
It does look cool.
Mark Normand
That is really something. What a town. What a country.
Sam Morril
All right, I take it back.
Mark Normand
You got me back for a train ride. That's pretty amazing.
Sam Morril
That's pretty epic.
Mark Normand
Imagine being a tourist, like a World cup tourist. Seeing that blow your mind.
Sam Morril
You really get to weeks of decent weather in this city, though. You're just like, it was legit. 100 degrees.
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
And ain't 100 in Phoenix, where you can kind of just chill. It's 100. Where you're like, I'm gonna kill myself.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah. But I. Let me just throw this out there. Maybe the best summer in New York in the last 40 years.
Renan
I agree.
Mark Normand
This is the Knicks. Oh, yeah. World cup, the fireworks.
Sam Morril
And Citizen, starring Citizen Vigilante, starring Army Hammer.
Mark Normand
Hammer.
Sam Morril
What's it called?
Renan
Citizen Vigilante.
Mark Normand
Number one on Apple, number one on Amazon. Is it really?
Sam Morril
No, it's not.
Mark Normand
I swear to God. Give it a go. It's blowing up. I mean, any. Everybody's saying it's the worst movie ever made. Like, it's the production.
Sam Morril
Including him, I hear. Yeah, he's not exactly like, can you go in a press store? He's like, yes, it's the worst thing
Renan
that ever happened to me.
Sam Morril
It's worse than the allegations against me. That's how bad it is.
Mark Normand
When you watch it, you're gonna want to bite your arm off.
Sam Morril
What did he. What's the quote there?
Renan
It says,
Mark Normand
starring a racist film, citizen Vigilante, by calling it hateful and disgusting.
Renan
He says he was in tears after watching the final cut.
Sam Morril
Wait, go down. It looks like there was an AI Thing.
Mark Normand
Good tears or bad tears?
Renan
The claim that Hammer called the film hateful and disaster is not given. He was not given the full script and cried after viewing the final cut. Came from an anonymous source.
Mark Normand
Oh, so you know what they should do? You know how, like, Dune, they have the. The popcorn bucket. It looks like the Dune monster. For him, it should be like skin pieces. You know, they sell it at the theater. Lean in.
Renan
Like, you weren't given the full script. Who do you think you were shooting here? You're shooting a whole family.
Mark Normand
He had a decent argument, though. The whole scene. The opening starts with a big rape scene.
Sam Morril
Oh, okay. So they're doing the death wish thing.
Mark Normand
Yeah, exactly.
Sam Morril
But then he just kills immigrants for no reason. He's just killing the wrong people.
Mark Normand
Yeah, pretty much.
Sam Morril
This is what happened to me when I was in Joker. They. They said that I was gonna be. You know, they had me film, like, a ton of jokes, and I just assumed the movie was gonna be about me telling jokes. And then Joaquin Phoenix was in it. Pretty fucked up.
Mark Normand
They really twisted it.
Sam Morril
They twist. I should have read the whole script, man.
Mark Normand
Damn.
Sam Morril
No, this is ridiculous. This is like. You gotta. I guess he doesn't have an agent, though. I was gonna say, you could have an agent. 92.6% from critics, we call that a reverse Hannah Gatsby.
Mark Normand
Watch out. This could be our movie. Same numbers.
Sam Morril
No. Well, we got to kill those immigrants.
Mark Normand
Yeah, right.
Sam Morril
We gotta stop leaning into that. In Act 2, for some reason, Mark and Sam, as a liquor salesman, just start killing immigrants.
Mark Normand
It's a really weird twist, killing bodega owners. You won't have our whiskey.
Sam Morril
That's my cat. As we walk into the sunset.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
90 minutes. So you got to give it that. At least it's quick. Are there clips we can find of this.
Renan
Oh, wait, wait.
Sam Morril
Read some of the reviews.
Mark Normand
Here we go. Let's see.
Sam Morril
The apartment scene is a horror show. Borderline snuff. A bloody home invasion mixed with smug. A smug lecture on politics.
Mark Normand
See that? That intrigues me. Unreal. He goes places others don't.
Sam Morril
Yes. Immigrants, homes, to kill them.
Renan
Wow. That's nuts.
Mark Normand
Whoa. Characters not developed enough. Best movie I've seen in a long time. It's pretty good if you set your expectations properly. Pretty daring subject matter. Oh, Equalizer.
Sam Morril
And John Wick. I didn't love Equalizer. I gotta be honest, everyone. I love Denzel. I just think it's like they made three of them. Yeah, it's fine. It's fine. It's like, got moments. For sure. Denzel's awesome, but it's like. I don't know. It's, like, weird when a guy his age isn't like, I'm sick of the old dudes in action movies.
Mark Normand
That's what they do now.
Sam Morril
Because it's like. It's literally just. You have to do this. You have to just be like, a quick cut.
Mark Normand
And he's like, oh, yeah.
Sam Morril
Because he can't do, like, crazy shit, right? At least Keanu, when he did the. John Wicks, was, like, young enough to still kind of do some cool shit.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
That being said, Denzel's cool as fuck in the movie. He's always good.
Mark Normand
But that's the one. Dakota Fanning is a kid and he has a projector.
Sam Morril
Yeah, she's no Chloe Moretz, right?
Mark Normand
That one.
Sam Morril
She's like a Russian prostitute.
Renan
Man on fire.
Mark Normand
Man on fire. I liked a lot.
Sam Morril
Yeah, that was a cooler one. But. But this is, like. It's also just funny. The Russian prostitute, he just like. So then he just murders all the traffickers. Maybe that prostitute needed that job. Oh, it's hard out there, dude.
Renan
Taking jobs away from immigrants.
Sam Morril
Oh, yeah, Exactly. A reverse vigilante, if you will.
Mark Normand
There you go.
Sam Morril
Yes.
Mark Normand
Remember the Bilbo beach guy? He was killing those old. Gilgo Beach.
Sam Morril
Bilbo.
Mark Normand
Bilbo bagging beach.
Sam Morril
The cops are like, we can't find this Bilbo guy.
Mark Normand
He's barefoot. How can we not find Bilbo? He's in the Shire.
Sam Morril
We're at the wrong beach, I think. We're not picking up Bilbo on Maps app.
Mark Normand
Gilbo. Gilgo. Gilgo. That sounds like a weird channel. Where's the FIFA? It's on Gilgo.
Sam Morril
I had a joke about the Gilgo Beach Killer. It was about how about how he had a soundproof room in his home. Like a dungeon. Really scary. It was discovered by a cadaver dog. Which I was like, that's the worst dog job ever. Because there's like, you know, drug sniffing dog, there's CNI dog as a cadaver dog.
Renan
That's like.
Sam Morril
I heard they don't even bark when they find a dead body. They light a cigarette and go, poor kid didn't even have a chance. You offer them a treat and they're like, you think I can eat after the shit I've seen today?
Mark Normand
You can't bring that dog to the beach either. You throw him a Frisbee, he's like, hey, I got a head over here in the sand.
Sam Morril
They go home and beat their dog wife. I just keep it going. No, but it's. No, but that guy was like. Did you see that guy? He was like fucking massive.
Renan
Yes.
Sam Morril
That was like. Remember True Detective? The guy was like, huge.
Mark Normand
Yeah, it was like that.
Sam Morril
Yeah, he was. He looked like he was like 6, 7. I could be wrong, but really, he looks like Tucker Carlson if shit really went south.
Renan
Whoa.
Mark Normand
He does.
Sam Morril
Look at that shit.
Renan
So this is like an architect and he was featured on like ABC News, like, as somebody who makes great buildings
Mark Normand
or whatever, I think. Didn't he leave a note? He did some kind of troll. No.
Renan
He took their phones and then called their family.
Mark Normand
That was it.
Sam Morril
That's what that's like. It's like going back to the scene of the crime.
Renan
It's revictimized. He loves victimizing people and it's just more victimizing.
Sam Morril
He's trolling them, though.
Renan
Yes. Yeah.
Mark Normand
That serial kills. Love doing that. He would go to midtown where you couldn't ping his phone. There was so much phone activity. Crazy.
Sam Morril
And yeah. Do you see the testimony? He was like, yes, I did all those things. It's like, whoa. But he's a. He's a psychopath. I mean, he's a.
Mark Normand
He's a.
Sam Morril
He killed like, I think eight. That they're sure. And I'm sure many more.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah. When the wife was out of town, he had like a torture dungeon. Long island, baby. These are the people going to governors.
Sam Morril
No, he's a scary dude.
Mark Normand
Yeah, Crazy. How often is a wife going out of town?
Sam Morril
I don't know. But you know, these people are always good at living double lives. Like, John Wayne Gacy was another one who, like, his wife claimed he, like, he never missed, like a date night.
Mark Normand
Oh, really?
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
These guys, because they're good at Living a double life. They're able to maintain the other part without suspicion. They're able to keep killing people.
Mark Normand
Yeah. So, you know, and going on a date night takes as much acting as not looking like a serial killer.
Sam Morril
Give him an Emmy.
Mark Normand
Yeah, exactly.
Sam Morril
That takes all the fucking.
Mark Normand
These guys. I mean, they're.
Sam Morril
You think Daniel Day Lewis can act? This guy was fucking smiling and grinning through one of his wife's stories while he had a fucking hooker in the trunk. Yes, that's acting.
Mark Normand
That is acting.
Sam Morril
Not saying it's good, but it's good acting.
Mark Normand
Yeah, well, they should. You find a way to turn these guys to good, because they get shit done. These guys are efficient. Look at Ted Bundy. The guy's a fucking lawyer. He's getting out of prison. He's picking up any chick he wants.
Sam Morril
Yeah. Eat your heart out, Mateo Lane. That is performing, my friend.
Renan
Here you go.
Sam Morril
He gave him the old razzle dazzle.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Renan
Mark, you have a new joke about undercover cop acting? Something like that.
Mark Normand
Oh, I have a joke about how gay sex used to be illegal. And I'm like, how do they. How do they. How do they enforce that? That's gonna be the worst undercover gig of all time. And I just have a plainclothes cop in a hotel room, like, getting fucked in the ass. And he's like, you're under arrest.
Sam Morril
Oh, that's good.
Mark Normand
I had to wait till it went in until I could book you, but, yeah, just one of those funny scenarios.
Sam Morril
Make my day. A forgotten Clint Eastwood film.
Mark Normand
Yeah, go ahead.
Sam Morril
Make me gay.
Mark Normand
Make me gay.
Sam Morril
So wasn't it a Pacino movie?
Renan
No. Make the palma. Which one?
Sam Morril
No Cruisin'. Cruising Undercover. Yeah.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah.
Sam Morril
Did he actually fuck dudes in that movie? I never saw it.
Mark Normand
Probably. No.
Renan
No.
Mark Normand
Might have blown a guy.
Renan
Yeah, that famous line hips or lips is from that movie.
Mark Normand
Ah, Hips are lips. I don't know that line. I don't know what that means either. That means we're hanging out a different bar.
Sam Morril
Blow me.
Renan
Air. Fuck me in the ass.
Mark Normand
Oh, okay. Don't clip this. All right?
Sam Morril
Clip it.
Renan
So we do a segment on the show called Working on Any Bits.
Mark Normand
Oh, that's true.
Renan
Be a perfect time for that.
Mark Normand
Well, I'm writing down a Clint Eastwood movie.
Sam Morril
Make me gay.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Dirty hairy asshole.
Sam Morril
That might be too old a reference.
Mark Normand
That's true.
Sam Morril
The crowds are like, what the fuck? The fuck was that?
Mark Normand
We need an updated cop movie.
Sam Morril
Do you feel lucky?
Mark Normand
How about Pooh Detective? Okay. Do you feel lucky? That's too old. Too I think. What's the new cop movie? Maybe Taken. That's not a cop. Departed. That's still 20 years.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Heat's coming back. Yeah. Training day two.
Sam Morril
Hope it's good.
Mark Normand
I know. The cast is amazing.
Sam Morril
It's just weird when movies take that much time off. But I feel like it fares better for a drama than a comedy, you know?
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
It's like they redid Dumb and Dumber. They redid Beverly Hills Cop.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Comedy. It's like you gotta be when you're in the fucking zone.
Mark Normand
I know. Happy Gilmore, too. It's all nostalgia jokes. It's all like, oh, remember that? Oh, I forgot about that guy. Guy. It's all callbacks, but, like.
Sam Morril
Yeah. I feel like a drama, maybe. He is a cool movie.
Mark Normand
Cool movie. And they got the same director, so that's a good sign.
Sam Morril
He's gone. He's got to be in his 80s.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah.
Sam Morril
Michael Mann, I think.
Mark Normand
What's his face? What's the guy who did Gladiator? Ridley.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
He's still making a move. I think he's 95.
Sam Morril
Gladiator 2 is pretty rough, though.
Mark Normand
It wasn't great.
Sam Morril
Did he do that one?
Mark Normand
I think he did. Did he? I think so.
Sam Morril
That's one of those where you're like, why a sequel? It's no reason other than money.
Mark Normand
I know.
Sam Morril
Because you don't need a sequel.
Mark Normand
It was the first picture.
Sam Morril
The first one's so good.
Mark Normand
So good. It was a phenomenon. And he also did Napoleon, I believe.
Sam Morril
Yeah. But the one he did before, that was really good. The one with Matt Damon and Adam Driver. It was like Rashomon style, where they were like. They were nights.
Mark Normand
Oh, the rape case.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Yes. That was great.
Sam Morril
Like Rashomon, basically.
Mark Normand
Yeah. That's underrated.
Sam Morril
What was it called again? Ridley Scott, Matt Damon. People are screaming in their phone. But that was a cool movie.
Mark Normand
Great movie. I saw it on a flight. I love same.
Renan
Yeah, it's telling me the Martian.
Mark Normand
Oh, the Last Duel. That's it. That was it.
Sam Morril
2021.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
That was a good movie, dude.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Gillis recommended that on a flight. He was watching. He was playing a.
Sam Morril
That's so funny. I was on a flight with Chris o'. Connor.
Mark Normand
Oh, really?
Sam Morril
You got to watch the Last Duel? And I told him he had to watch Sexy Beast. And we fucking.
Mark Normand
Whoa.
Sam Morril
And we both were like, good pick.
Mark Normand
That's a cool movie. Sexy Beast.
Sam Morril
Sexy Beast is. And it's also, like, a good summer movie. Yeah. The vibe is so summery and so cool.
Mark Normand
Yeah. What's that guy's name? The fat guy?
Sam Morril
Ray Winstone.
Mark Normand
He's great. He's cool dude. Yes.
Sam Morril
And that. And that song Peaches.
Mark Normand
You know his favorite movie? That is.
Renan
Who?
Mark Normand
Todd Barry Derosa and Todd Barry. Is that right? Yeah. Well, I gotta rewatch Sexy Beast. Me too.
Sam Morril
It's been a fucking movie.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Shane was doing his world of work. He does those role playing games with, like, World War II.
Sam Morril
No way.
Mark Normand
Yeah, He's a big dweeb with that shit on the laptop. And I was watching, he recommended Last Duel. Yeah, it's funny. This beer drinking, football playing, you know? Funny guy.
Sam Morril
He's just fucking a slave is Thomas Jefferson.
Mark Normand
He's like, insert penis. I'd play that game.
Sam Morril
Yeah, it's made by the people who made Citizen Vigilante. Rated M for mature. Let's see what we got for jokes. I got a few angles I want to try.
Mark Normand
Yeah, me too.
Sam Morril
I'm in the place now where I'm in a lot with the. I just. I'm up every night. So the jokes are either working or not working.
Mark Normand
Same.
Sam Morril
I'm not really, like. I don't have a lot of, like, great premises, you know, or I think I would have more with them, but. Oh, this was an angle I had about, you see, women, like, I see. I get a lot of these, like, feminist posts, you know, like on my feed or whatever. And I got one that said, dear men, if she says, come for me, that means she wants it to be over. And I was like, yeah, I think every guy ever is okay with that. I've never heard one guy be like, this is really fucked up that she asked me to come. That was really messed up. So that was the first part. And the second part I had was like, you see these accounts? They were like, sex work is real work. Yeah, you see that all the time. And I'm like, yeah, it's usually a woman who does that, you know, because they think it's feminist to write that. If a guy is writing that, you're like, I think that guy just a lot of prostitutes.
Mark Normand
Right, right. That's true. Yeah.
Sam Morril
And I was trying to go further with the. The sex work thing. How it's like, is it a real job? Is it because people get defense. I threw it out a few times. And people get defensive with it with like, it's real work. And I'm like, well, it's definitely hard work.
Mark Normand
Sure.
Sam Morril
I don't know if it's real work.
Renan
Yeah. No, you have a W2.
Mark Normand
Well, it's like, Real work.
Sam Morril
People, people.
Mark Normand
That's fair, but under the table.
Sam Morril
Yeah, but if you're an. Only fans probably have a W2, right? Yeah, yeah.
Renan
I was talking about prostitution, but.
Sam Morril
Oh.
Mark Normand
But that's considered sex work as well, I think.
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
It's an umbrella.
Mark Normand
It's an umbrella.
Sam Morril
So then I had a thing like people leave teaching to do only fans. No one leaves onlyfans to become a teacher. That was one thing I was trying to go with. And it's like I got kind of like a reaction, but didn't really know where to go.
Mark Normand
That's a good angle, though. That's true. It's kind of the same with comedy.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
You know, like, no one is ever like, oh, I'm a comedian, but I'm dying to be the head of Nabisco. You know, with. The head of Nabisco will sometimes try comedy.
Sam Morril
Right. So comedy. I've always said comedy and sex work is kind of similar.
Mark Normand
I think that's an angle.
Sam Morril
We both don't get it. It's like.
Renan
We get it.
Sam Morril
We both. Both of our parents are like, are you sure?
Mark Normand
Right, right.
Sam Morril
That's an angle.
Mark Normand
Like four nights.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Work nights. You gotta take it up the ass. You gotta.
Sam Morril
Although I feel like sex work, you can blow up immediately. Whereas comedy, like, you know, Drea de Matteo, Shannon Elizabeth, they made money on onlyfans immediately. You know, Steve.
Mark Normand
Oh. Work out a little.
Sam Morril
Well, he'll make money. But like. But it's like at the harder transition.
Mark Normand
Yes, yes, exactly. You gotta give your soul away. It's usually a broken people too inside too.
Sam Morril
That angle too.
Mark Normand
Right, right.
Sam Morril
But I do feel there's like a weird kinship with sex work and comedian because it's like a we. They're both kind of.
Mark Normand
And you know, also a lot of comedians later will be, like, I said too much. I wish I hadn't opened up that much. Now my kids see it and then porn stars or whoever, like, ah, my kids see me doing porn.
Sam Morril
Either way, we're doing what we're doing because of an absent father.
Mark Normand
There you go. Exactly.
Sam Morril
Bad dad. No, I don't know. Something there. And then I wrote one more thing about this might be dated, but I. I was just looking up sex where like crazy shit. And Bonnie Blue, that woman, she slept with 1057 men and in one day. That was a Guinness record. They just kept fucking her the whole day. Yeah, and I looked it up. The previous record, 919 men. So she could have stopped at 920.
Mark Normand
Oh, that's good.
Sam Morril
She really wanted to shatter this record.
Mark Normand
Overachiever.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
She's the Joey Chestnut of nuts.
Sam Morril
Yeah. It's like, just fucking at 9, 20. They're like, we got it. She's like, no, keep it. Let's keep going. Yeah, I'm cha. I'm not chasing the record. I'm chasing greatness. I don't know where to go with that one, but I think that's like a. There's a turn, maybe there.
Mark Normand
If I was the thousand 19th guy, I'd go, come for me, please. Like, let's end this thing. Jesus. Well, they don't all come, the guys.
Sam Morril
You think she made every one of them come? That would have taken, like, weeks.
Renan
I think everyone gets a 20 second shot.
Mark Normand
Oh, they get 20 seconds.
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
That really shows you what garbage guys are.
Mark Normand
Yeah, I know. They'll line up for that shit. That's the new breadline.
Sam Morril
The other thing is, like, if it's impressive when a guy. Like, when you hear, like, Wilt Chamberlain or Gene Simmons, like, for a guy to fuck quadruple digits, you have to be an absolute legend.
Mark Normand
Yeah. For a woman to do it, you
Sam Morril
really just need a free day.
Mark Normand
He need a free day. Write that down. That's something. Clip that.
Sam Morril
Remember that.
Renan
All right.
Mark Normand
You need a free day and a bed. Maybe that's.
Sam Morril
Maybe that's nothing. All right.
Mark Normand
Well, yeah, no, no, that's something.
Sam Morril
I'm just trying to figure it out here. I got. That's why me. I feel a lot of my new topics are, like, too blue.
Mark Normand
But Bill Burr had that old line, like, why how come a guy fucks a bunch of girls? He's a Casanova. If a girl. Jim Jeffries, Was it Jeffries?
Sam Morril
Yeah, yeah.
Mark Normand
And he's like, because it's hard to get laid for a guy.
Sam Morril
That's a version of it. Well, his version. He had a line I remember, like, there. There. There are dwarf sluts. There are no dwarf studs. He goes, maybe in their own realm, but none who have crossed over. That's a great line. But yeah. So then maybe that last part's too much in his territory. So maybe I just dumped the last.
Mark Normand
Oh, no, I think that's the free day is a good line.
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
What do you got? What are you working on?
Mark Normand
Is this anything? I think the point is. Is something. But it's not funny yet. The most progressive people are like, america sucks. America's racist. It's corrupt, whatever. But they want immigrants to come in. They're like, come here. Come to America. But the people who love America, the Most. You know, it's like, land of the free. Free speech, pride, liberty. They're like, don't come here. So it's weird to be the one who loves the place is like, I don't want to show it off. I don't want you coming over. But the people who hate the place are like, come on by.
Sam Morril
You know, the angle is.
Mark Normand
Please.
Sam Morril
It's like when you're at a party that sucks versus a party that's awesome. When you're at a shitty party, you're like, you got to come over, dude.
Mark Normand
Please, I need.
Sam Morril
I need company.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
When you're at a. When you're at a good party, you're not looking at your phone, right? You're not trying.
Mark Normand
You're not.
Sam Morril
You're not recruiting for the good party.
Mark Normand
That's good.
Sam Morril
You want people to come to the shit party.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
So you have someone to talk to.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. Misery loves company.
Sam Morril
But, yeah, maybe that's not enough. But that's like a angle.
Mark Normand
That is an angle.
Sam Morril
But it's interesting to be patriotic. And then also. But then the other angle is you're patriotic because you're like, I don't want anyone else in here because it's so good.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Yeah, right? It's almost like I thought of a comparison. Could be if you hate your wife, you're like, please her. Please come by. Come over. But if you love your wife, you're like, get away from her. I don't know if that's true, though. I think some guys come over and bang my wife. I don't care. Bang my wife, please.
Sam Morril
Maybe instead of bang my wife, like, come over, like, let's. Let's do a thing.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Like a dinner. Instead of fuck her.
Mark Normand
Double date. Because I'm. Double date.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
And then the guy who's like, no, I love my wife. I want to be alone with her.
Sam Morril
Yeah. That's interesting.
Mark Normand
That's not the. Hilarious.
Sam Morril
You love the country and you want less people in.
Mark Normand
Yeah, it needs that. Perfect analogy. Perfect comparison.
Sam Morril
The problem is, it does kind of track that you wouldn't want, right? Because it's like, when you want to show it off.
Mark Normand
Hey, come on.
Sam Morril
By visitors. Not for temp. Not for.
Mark Normand
Not for permanence. Yeah, right, Right.
Sam Morril
That's the only problem with the premise, I think, is, like, you. It's the same reason people get mad when, like, too many people move into their neighborhood.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Same shit, right? They look at New York or New America like, it's that cool restaurant. Like, don't tell anybody we Got a sweet thing going here.
Sam Morril
You're gatekeeping.
Mark Normand
You're gatekeeping. Yeah.
Sam Morril
Yeah. But I love this country. Yeah. Don't you want more?
Renan
Oh, this isn't for your thing, but maybe we hate when neighborhoods get gentrified. But those same people love it when immigrants come here, Right?
Mark Normand
Yeah, that's true.
Renan
It's a gentrification.
Mark Normand
Well, it's kind of like how they say, like, when an English guy comes over, it's colonizing. When a Muslim guy comes over, it's diversifying. And you're like, well, isn't that colonizing as well? But it's. Now you're getting in some controversial territory here, some scary waters.
Sam Morril
I think there's something interesting about Patriot versus Like, I'm trying to think of the angle of Patriot versus maybe the angle. I hate America. But then you want. But then you want people to come by.
Mark Normand
Yeah. I picture the kids with their parents, like, I hate you, mom. Blah, blah, blah. And. But you wouldn't want more people to come to your family cookout if you hate your parents, you know? But if you love your parents, you.
Sam Morril
I think I. My issue with the. Is the premise is I think it's a lot. It's logical that people think that way. I don't agree with it, but it's like, it tracks that they would feel that way.
Mark Normand
Yeah. I guess it just stood out as humorous to me that the people that
Sam Morril
hate it, it's got to be something bigger than. It's like. Okay, well, it's kind of weird. Yeah. I'm thinking of Norman's voice here. Like, as in. Yeah, you're searching for an analogy.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. If you hate it, why would you want people to come? Because you're saying it's so bad. Oh, this place is corrupt. It's racist. It's, you know, horribly. Run. Get over here. We want more of you. If you think it's so bad, why would you want people to show up?
Sam Morril
Yeah. If you love it.
Mark Normand
If you love it, you think you'd want people to show up.
Sam Morril
Maybe the angle is for the wife. Maybe it's like, I'm fucking my. If I love my wife,
Mark Normand
I want it for myself.
Sam Morril
If you eat something that tastes bad, you want somebody else to taste it too.
Mark Normand
Oh, that's interesting. Oh, that's good. That's good. Yeah. Oh, this is horrible. Try it. And you're like, why would I try it? Like, because I want you to see how horrible it is. But if it's good, you're like, don't touch my Food.
Sam Morril
The problem is you're trying to wrap up a big thing with like one line.
Mark Normand
Exactly.
Sam Morril
The issue is I don't know if there's one line. It's got to be a bigger bit, I think.
Mark Normand
Right.
Sam Morril
That's clever. I don't know if that wraps it up.
Mark Normand
I don't know if it wraps it up either, but that's not a bad little button on it. Good call, Peters.
Sam Morril
That's good.

I don't bounce back the next day like I used to, baby. That's why I use Zbiotics Pre alcohol before having drinks. Zbiotic Pre Alcohol Probiotic drink is the world's first genetically engineered probiotic. It was invented by PhD scientists to tackle rough mornings after drinking. Here's how it works. When you drink, alcohol gets converted into a toxic byproduct in the gut. It's a buildup of this byproduct, not dehydration. That's to blame for rough days after drinking. Interesting. Pre alcohol produces an enzyme to break this byproduct down. Just remember to make pre alcohol your first drink of the night. Drink responsibly and you'll feel your best tomorrow. You know me, I'm getting older, so got to take the pre alcohol just so I can get back to work. Don't want to take any chances and this stuff helps. And you know me, I like the sauce.

Sam Morril
Thought like how this is an idea. I don't know where to exactly go with this. It's like the idea is comedians are so we're never fully present because we're always trying to chase a joke which is not a good or ideal partner for a woman. It's like you want a man who is gonna be there. There have been times where during sex I think of a good joke and then I'm like, I gotta come so I can write this down. Oh yeah, I don't wanna lose a joke. And I'm like, that's not a good partner for you. You want a man who will like hold you after sex. You don't want a guy who's, you know, bare ass jogging toward a notebook, giggling, trying to remember something that's not like a good after sex moment. So I'm trying to think there's like a bigger bit there about how, like about just never being present.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Well, has this been done? If you were running out of the room to write a song about her, that would be kind of nice. But the fact that it's a joke means you're literally making a mockery of whatever just happened in the bedroom. You're right.
Sam Morril
Like, like Paul McCartney is like, you Inspired this song. No woman wants to inspire a joke.
Mark Normand
No, Nobody. Yeah, Yeah.
Sam Morril
I wrote this joke about you. What was it? It was about fucking you from behind. Not exactly. I want to hold your hand.
Mark Normand
Yeah, there we go. I love the. The visual of her. Her on her arm, you know, hands and knees or whatever. All fours. And you're using her back to write the joke. You got your moleskin out on her back. Yeah.
Sam Morril
When did that joke hit me? I was making love to a woman.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
In the La Quinta Inn.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Because otherwise it's. Your body is a wonderland. This is. Your pussy stinks.
Sam Morril
It's also that funny.
Mark Normand
Big difference.
Renan
I want to hold your glance.
Sam Morril
It's also funny because it's like whenever a musician dies, they're like, oh, we found some recorded stuff. And you're like, oh, that's cool. You never find that shit from comedians. That's like, where they're like, oh. Oh, dude, we just uncovered a diarrhea truck stop chunk from Sam Morrill after he died. Maybe there's something there. I don't know.
Renan
That Lenny Bruce book right there on the COVID is a picture of him dead of an overdose. And that's a fucking big swing.
Mark Normand
Is that dead or passed out?
Renan
That's dead.
Mark Normand
Yeah, he's dead. Holy shit.
Sam Morril
Yeah, that's dark.
Mark Normand
The first one's him and his kids, right? Damn, that is dark. Jesus. But yeah, I love. And there's all these great songs like Melissa, Sarah, Smile, Layla. And yours is. If a girl saw her name on your notebook, she's like, oh, no. You know, Whereas, like, you see Layla, you're like, oh, my God, I'm Layla. This is touch.
Sam Morril
You got me on my knees. My joke. I had you on your knees. Yeah, no, it's definitely. It's definitely a thing where you're like, you try the joke and if it hits, I'm like, hey, I got to tell you something because I'm not going to run it by you before because it might bomb.
Mark Normand
What's the point of the fight?
Sam Morril
But I'm like, hey, I got to do this. Sorry. It's a good bit.
Mark Normand
And I think a lot of these singer songwriter guys sing the song at their wedding. Imagine doing your act at the wedding. You know, I've tried.
Sam Morril
It's not good.
Mark Normand
Yeah, how about this?
Sam Morril
On the back of the Lenny Bruce book. I'm not a comedian and I'm not sick. The world is sick and I'm the doctor. I'm a surgeon with a scalpel for false values. I don't have an act. I just talk. I'm just Lenny Bruce. Don't know if I agree with any of that. Gotta have an act.
Mark Normand
Pretty heavy handed.
Sam Morril
Yeah, It's a bit self righteous.
Mark Normand
Yeah. What's his face? What's the guy's name? Bill Hicks. Bill Hicks has a whole thing. He's like, the act is what you go to when you're out of stuff to talk about. I'm like, ah, that's not true. That's true. It's all about the act.
Renan
Does remind me of the.
Mark Normand
The Hedberg joke about running to get a pen.
Renan
What is that joke?
Mark Normand
If it's funny, I write it down. The pen's too far away. I convinced myself it wasn't fun.
Sam Morril
Oh, that's a good one.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Quick, quick, quick, fun one.
Sam Morril
Yeah. What do you got?
Mark Normand
I'm working on this bit about Ozempic. How all my fat friends are on Ozempic and.
Sam Morril
Are you guys both on it or not?
Renan
I'm on it.
Sam Morril
Are you okay?
Mark Normand
One guy.
Sam Morril
You did it the fucking old fashioned way.
Mark Normand
Did it the real way. Whoa.
Sam Morril
How does it feel to do it the real way when everyone around you is cheating? You're like fucking Jeter in baseball in
Renan
like 2000 and I'm Derek Jeter.
Mark Normand
Yeah. I feel like it's IVF versus jizz, but so Oz epic. Everybody's on it. I'm like, fat people are going to be going away. They're going to be like endangered. You're going to see a fat guy in 20 years. Going to be like seeing a Native American, like, hang in there, brother. You know, stay strong. Yeah, you're living off the reservation. He's like, yeah, dinner reservations. I'm trying to hang on.
Sam Morril
Oh, that's fun.
Mark Normand
And all that hits. And I'm like, it's weird that we. What do you think a third world country thinks of Ozempic? Like, they're dying for food. They're starving. They're skinny, skin and bones. And we're paying money to get there. Like, they don't have any food and we're paying money to not be hungry. Something funny about that.
Sam Morril
They don't know where dinner's coming from. And we're just like, literally like, I got too many dinner options.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Depaulo has a joke like that.
Sam Morril
What's his.
Mark Normand
He's like, he saw a poster. He's like, some kid's like, I don't know where my next meal is coming from. He's like, neither do I. Popeyes, Papa John's, the dominoes well, it's like.
Sam Morril
Yeah, but it's like drugging yourself to not. To not eat is insane.
Mark Normand
It's like, insane privilege. Exactly. Exactly. And I have an act out where the skinny guy's like, why don't you just not eat? And you're like, what, are you kidding? We have. Look, we have over here, you know, we got the Snickers ice cream bar. We got the McRib. We got all this shit. So it's a lot harder for us to not eat.
Sam Morril
It's addiction. It's like. But then you try to tell them it's addiction. It's like these people are going through withdrawal. Right? These fucking countries. Yeah. I mean, explaining it, maybe. I mean, it's just. I feel like those angles have been done. The explaining, the privilege to them. Like, what's this? Like?
Mark Normand
Oh, that's.
Sam Morril
Yeah, those have been done. But, like, the angle of, yeah, I take a shot to kill my appetite,
Mark Normand
that to me, is. There's something there. Take. I. I'm paying $400 a month and shooting myself in the side with a needle to get where you're at.
Sam Morril
I'm using my health insurance to do something unhealthy. I'm using my health insurance to be unhealthy, like you.
Mark Normand
Yeah. That's how far we've come. I tried an angle of like, I can't get my wife pregnant. I'm like, I'm aborting people. That's how much. How much I can have a kid, but that's too dark. I think people are like. They hear abortion, they pulled back. But I like the analogy. Then I have this whole thing about. I watched him do the needle, and then we walked around Brooklyn and we saw a heroin addict. And I'm like, hey, it's like you. That gets a laugh. And he goes, dude, that's not like me. And I'm like, I know he's skinny, and that kills. And I say, if I was fat guy, I would just do heroin. It's cheaper. You get high. And I've never seen a fat heroin addict. And it's cool. No one's ever like, no rock stars. Like, I wrote this song on Ozempic.
Sam Morril
That's a great line that hits, but that's good. Yeah, yeah. Miles Davis wasn't. That's fun.
Mark Normand
Yeah, But I. Something with the Third World country thing.
Sam Morril
Yeah. Axel wasn't like, slash, if you keep doing Ozempic, you're out of Guns N Roses, man.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. They're like, please do Ozempic. I had a Whole thing about a homeless guy is, like, he sees a fat guy and he's like, oh, man, I need money for drugs. And the fat guy's like, so do I. You know? But that never hit either. I tried so many different iterations.
Sam Morril
It's also like, there's so many negative side effects for Ozempic. Like, you lose your ass if you're a woman.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah, true.
Sam Morril
You lose your ass, you lose.
Mark Normand
You lose bone density. A woman.
Sam Morril
I feel like your face gets really.
Mark Normand
Face gets all jowl or emaciated looking. They have oz epic face. It's pretty real. So, yeah, could be something.
Sam Morril
Yeah. Wait, say the last part again.
Mark Normand
The heroin part.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
If I was fat, I would just do heroin. You get high, it's cheaper and you're cool. Heroin addicts are cool.
Sam Morril
And you don't need health insurance to get it.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah, true. Holy shit. That's crazy.
Sam Morril
Holy shit.
Renan
That's Kelly Osborne.
Mark Normand
Wow.
Sam Morril
Well, I love the quote is, stop kicking me while I'm down. And Salaki's like, let's pull this picture up. Let me check her wikifeet real quick.
Renan
By the way, I'm catching a lot of hell for bringing up Caitlin's wikifeet.
Mark Normand
Ah, you see? Are you?
Renan
Yes.
Sam Morril
Yeah. Why would you do that?
Renan
Wait, why would I do it? Why would I catch hell or why did I do that? I've done that with a million guests we've had here.
Mark Normand
I've done it for you.
Sam Morril
Yeah, it's different doing it to a guy. You can't have that mustache and me pulling up women's feet.
Renan
I treat everyone the same.
Mark Normand
All right, you got another one?
Sam Morril
I feel like these are, like, not baked enough. Let's see what I got.
Mark Normand
Equal opportunity. Pull up a man's feet. You pull up a woman's feet. God damn it. No one likes men's feet. That's the problem. That's the problem. Yeah, we don't have good feet. That's not our thing.
Sam Morril
No woman's ever been into a man's feet.
Mark Normand
No.
Sam Morril
It's a weird fetish.
Renan
It is.
Sam Morril
We don't take care of our feet, and men who take care of their feet, it's. That's weird.
Mark Normand
That's weird. You ever see the guy in the pedicure window? You're like, look at this dude. What's he doing?
Renan
By the way, to her credit, I spoke to her downstairs and apologized after that show. I was like, hey, that was weird. I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to be weird.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
But you apologized and then offered to photograph her feet. It was a weird move. I thought
Renan
she did say, no, keep it. Funny is funny.
Mark Normand
All right.
Sam Morril
And then you walked away and she was like, creep. No. I don't know. What do I have? I have a few. I have a couple I can't crack. So I had this one thing about, like a divorce friend who, you know, he always brings up. She said we were gonna be together till death, you know, And I was like, right. But she did say that at the wedding. That's a high point, you know, like, you can't just go off the high points. I remember I was in a relationship once, and during sex, the woman said, my pussy belongs to you. After the relationship fizzled, I let it go. Sure do. I wish. I do. I wish I got in writing, of course. But you have to know when to lawyer up. But I think that's a fun part. And then I want to keep going. So he met.
Mark Normand
That's funny.
Sam Morril
He met this woman on a fetish app. And it's like, yeah, dude, you thought that was going to be till death, right? Like, you can't. Like, I'm not saying I'm not judging you for using these apps, but like, you think, like, we both like bondage as a healthy foundation for a long lasting marriage.
Mark Normand
Good point.
Sam Morril
A good point. It's not funny. So I think that was the angle. It's like, problem is, like, with these apps, it's like, know what's a hookup app? And know what's a.
Mark Normand
You know, a long lasting relationship?
Sam Morril
But that's maybe just a good point and not a good joke.
Mark Normand
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I like that my pussy belongs to you. Because what if you get a gynecology bill in a. In a year and you're like, what the hell is this? Like, it belongs to you. You got to pay for it.
Sam Morril
Should not have signed on the dotted line.
Mark Normand
Yeah, but yeah, the bondage thing, I wonder if there's a. I'm going broke.
Sam Morril
What happened? My ex wife had ovarian cancer.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Why are you paying for that? I own her.
Renan
I got the in the divorce.
Mark Normand
Yeah, it's not bad.
Sam Morril
It's not bad.
Mark Normand
I would take that.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Promise it's attached to her.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
You know?
Sam Morril
Yeah. Visitation.
Mark Normand
Visitation rights. They're a conjugal visit. Yeah. There's no glory hole for. I guess the is a glory hole. At the end of the day, whoever
Sam Morril
came up with a glory hole. Optimistic, fella.
Mark Normand
Very optimistic.
Sam Morril
Because that's like you got to have some trust for that one.
Mark Normand
Oh, you don't know what's on the other end of that.
Sam Morril
You don't?
Mark Normand
Yeah. That's crazy.
Sam Morril
The first person to do the glory hole was brave.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Jamming your dick in some drywall and just hoping for the best.
Mark Normand
I won't even answer a number. I don't know. I put my dick through a wall. Depends on where the wall is, too. Yeah. If the wall is at Chuck E. Cheese, maybe don't put your dick through. But if it's at the locker room, the great wall. That's a little thick. That's a hole.
Sam Morril
You got a big dick if you can make it through that one.
Mark Normand
That's true. Hung Chinese dick. What'd you say?
Renan
Chinese dicks.
Mark Normand
Oh, okay. Hung dynasty. Yeah.
Sam Morril
Well, you got another.
Mark Normand
Is this stupid? Just tell me. This is stupid. I'll throw it out the window and stuff. Slip my own wrist and get on Wikifeet. So I did a big romantic dinner with the wife, Took her to a carriage ride through the park. Candlelit dinner. Laid on a blanket on the park, looked at the stars. And then I realized, why is this romantic? This is just shit people did 200 years ago. You know, I'm like, what's romantic about being Amish for three hours? You know, we're just doing shit that's poor people do in the 1800s. And I'm like, it's only romantic if you do it a little bit. If that was our lifestyle, we'd be poor. It's like camping. Camping's fun for three days, but if you live like that, you're a homeless person, you know, so none of that hits, but it's a point.
Sam Morril
But I think it's also like, privilege is having no privilege for, like, three days.
Mark Normand
Isn't that weird, though? That having no privilege is like, whoa, that's how good we got it.
Sam Morril
Well, like, there's people who can't afford phones, but then, like, were like, keep me away from my phone. It kind of goes with your ozempic thing.
Mark Normand
Right?
Sam Morril
Like, we, like, I have to put my phone in the other. When you see someone with, like, a flip phone, you're like, that's privilege. You know what I mean? Right, right. It's like, less technology is privilege.
Mark Normand
Yeah, true.
Sam Morril
So it's maybe. Maybe the angle is like, rich people
Mark Normand
live in the woods for a week. Just like, get away, you know, as a retreat, they call it where other people live in the woods because they're a fugitive or, you know.
Sam Morril
Yeah. Someone lives in, like, A penthouse. You're like, where are you going for the weekend? My cabin.
Mark Normand
Exactly, exactly.
Sam Morril
It's got to be a string of things like that.
Mark Normand
Yes. I haven't eaten in two days. What are you. You broke? You can't afford food? I'm fasting.
Sam Morril
Fasting is good. That's another good one.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Trying to think of other things.
Mark Normand
Yeah. What's the thing where you don't have to. We do it to show how good we got it, but they're actually things people didn't do or did because they were poor.
Renan
You're treading on rich men, poor man territory.
Sam Morril
No, I think it's different enough.
Mark Normand
His are like. You work in a trailer.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Outdoor shower. Yeah. It's a little different.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
This is more privilege, I think. But then I say, do you think what we're doing now will be considered romantic in 200 years? You got a lady on the moon talking to her robot best friend like, hey, I had a hot date last night. What'd you do? Well, we drank White Claws and vaped. We played pickleball, did a TikTok dance, and I just name shit. Annoying shit. We do now.
Sam Morril
It's something. Yeah. Ryan Hamilton has a somewhat similar bit about a carriage ride where he goes, you'd think in a hundred years we'll be like, all right, let's get in this Ford Focus.
Mark Normand
Oh, that's the same bit. Same. Yeah.
Sam Morril
So that part you'd have to copy. The other part, I think could still be something if you go another way with it.
Mark Normand
All right, Good to know. All right. Glad you told me that.
Sam Morril
Yeah. I think. I think it's got to be like a lot of examples. It's got to be like a Norman like. Yeah. Like the fasting with something. The other thing, being off the grid,
Mark Normand
trying to think flip phone is close.
Sam Morril
Yeah. Flip phone to something.
Mark Normand
Maybe Having a horse. Like, having a horse is kind of a record player. Yeah. Yeah. An old camper.
Sam Morril
A horse or something. Yeah. You ride horse.
Mark Normand
If you live on a ranch, you can afford to have a horse. Back in the day, a horse was just like how you got around.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
All right, all right. This helps.
Sam Morril
There's something there. Yeah.
Mark Normand
Hamilton Ford Focus Hamilton. That's good. Look at that pick.
Sam Morril
That's a great one, dude.
Renan
Thank you.
Mark Normand
My kid would Slushie is going to
Sam Morril
be a hit, buddy. This is the drink of the summer right here. A cherry. A cherry Pepsi and a Bodega Cat Ninja.
Mark Normand
I bought a Ninja ten years ago is for making smoothies. Now they're like, fuck it. We're going all in on frozen drinks.
Sam Morril
They got the ice cream maker now.
Mark Normand
They do, yeah. Oh, what a country.
Sam Morril
Let's not get carried away here. We're doing an ad for Ninja right now.
Renan
What is that big box? Speaking of, what is that giant box?
Mark Normand
Oh, baby.
Sam Morril
Well, chefs in Buffalo sent us this nice package because I guess we talk about them all the time. How good chefs is.
Mark Normand
Love chefs.
Sam Morril
This is. I love that it says total protein, 39 grams. Is anyone eating a chicken parm for their. After their pump?
Renan
I don't.
Sam Morril
I mean, it's delicious. Look at that block of cheese.
Mark Normand
Whoa.
Sam Morril
I will say Chef's is fucking amazing.
Mark Normand
Love chef.
Sam Morril
Taking some of this home, baby.
Mark Normand
Oh, look at that marinara.
Sam Morril
Look at that pasta sauce. So if you live in Buffalo, you already know, but my two favorite spots in Buffalo are chefs and mothers. Two fucking amazing restaurants. Buffalo, underrated city.
Mark Normand
Great town. Great people, great club with all this stuff. Buffalo is the anti Syracuse.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Both upstate. But Buffalo is so much more pleasant.
Sam Morril
It is more pleasant.
Mark Normand
Way more pleasant. Way more sports team helps. Yeah.
Sam Morril
The neighbors, the Bills, they got college ball in Syracuse, but it's not the same.
Mark Normand
Not the same. The Orange.
Sam Morril
I just love cities that, like, have struggling sports teams. It just. You can't help but have character.
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
You still believe.
Mark Normand
I love that. Although we have the Pelicans, and no one is, like, rallying behind them.
Sam Morril
It's a Saints town.
Mark Normand
It's a Saints town all the way.
Sam Morril
And you know what's annoying about the Pelicans is, like, every one of their players is, like, untradeable. They're like, we need four firsts for this player. We're not trading them. And it's like, you had 20 wins last year.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Not every player can be untouchable on a fucking lottery team.
Mark Normand
Right. And it's been said before, but you can't buy a team. You gotta fuck with the team name. If you're gonna put the Jazz in Utah, it just doesn't work. You can't have Utah Jazz.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
It's such a contradiction.
Sam Morril
New Orleans Pelicans, too. It's like, not a scary animal. Well, Minnesota's the Wolves.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
Orlando's kind of weak to the Magic, but, yeah, the New Orleans.
Mark Normand
We were the Jed. They were the Hornets for a minute, which also is kind of a Southern
Sam Morril
thing, but they took that from Charlotte. I didn't like any of that either, but. But New Orleans. Yeah. It's just not.
Mark Normand
But imagine the Denver Heat. It doesn't work, you know? It's a cold town.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
You know, Makes no sense. Doesn't make sense. What's Phoenix?
Sam Morril
The Suns?
Mark Normand
Perfect. Perfect.
Renan
You know the Lakers, Mark. The LA Lakers.
Mark Normand
That was Minnesota.
Renan
Yes.
Mark Normand
The Lakes. Yeah. What about the Clippers?
Renan
I know this one too, but go ahead.
Mark Normand
I don't know.
Renan
Oh, it's a clipper ship.
Sam Morril
That's why they call Joe DiMaggio the Yankee Clipper.
Renan
Clipper. He's from San Francisco.
Sam Morril
Yeah, but the way he moved through the outfield. The Yankee Clipper.
Mark Normand
Now there's gotta be a barber shop in LA called the Clippers. Oh, has to be. There's gotta be.
Renan
Yes.
Mark Normand
Come on. But what does a Clipper have to do with la?
Renan
I think they're boats and it's a water city.
Sam Morril
Well, there's definitely lakes, LA Lakers. I'm kidding.
Mark Normand
Yeah. I don't know. All right, thank you, chefs. That's a nice box. Sam's own Sam owns this box. Oh, there is.
Renan
I'm looking for it.
Mark Normand
Okay. Oh, that's a statue.
Renan
Clippers.
Sam Morril
I got a peeve, by the way. Can I hit you with a peeve?
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah.
Sam Morril
The person who's inconsiderate with the snooze.
Mark Normand
Oh, snooze button on the alarm. Yeah.
Sam Morril
Oh, my God. When you're in a bed with another person and they kept. They kept hitting the snooze.
Mark Normand
Geez. Veterans in trouble. You guys both nightcaps.
Sam Morril
I'm like, you know, it's. It makes me crazy, dude.
Mark Normand
Yeah, that's bad.
Sam Morril
I have. We have one perk as a. As a comic. You don't get health insurance.
Mark Normand
Nope.
Sam Morril
You don't get any real life perks. We sleep is our one benefit from this job.
Mark Normand
Here. Here.
Sam Morril
We get to sleep in.
Mark Normand
Yes.
Sam Morril
You're taking it away.
Mark Normand
I know.
Sam Morril
And then she's, like, fidgeting. She's like. She's like, I left something in the bed. I'm like, what? Your common decency.
Mark Normand
Also, don't wake me up. My wife does this one. She goes, are you up? I'm like, what, are you crazy?
Sam Morril
Yeah, now I am.
Mark Normand
Wake me up, you coos. I'm trying to snooze.
Sam Morril
Are you up? Is you say it. You don't touch while you do it. Yeah.
Mark Normand
She's like, you up? I'm like, now I am. By the way, I went from you up to you up.
Sam Morril
Watch the kid.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. That's what it means. Like, I need your help. Like, I'm doing the kid alone here.
Renan
You up makes the kid you up makes the kid. Yeah.
Sam Morril
You up. Used to lead to sex. Now it leads to chores.
Mark Normand
Yes. For from the kid.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah. That could be something. Write that down.
Sam Morril
Write it down.
Mark Normand
Yeah. You up is brew. My wife does that all the time. And I just. Sometimes I just lay. I just like go fake it. I fake it all the time. That's my faking it.
Renan
I do like the snooze though.
Mark Normand
Snooze is a real problem if you're alone. Alone.
Sam Morril
I love this alone. It's great.
Mark Normand
Yeah, but what is the point?
Renan
You can control your dreams a little bit.
Mark Normand
Oh, get out of here with that. What are you, Vanilla Sky?
Sam Morril
I was going to say the same thing. Control your dreams.
Mark Normand
Dreams a little bit. Get the hell out of duh.
Sam Morril
Sad is banging Heidi Klum. He's like, all right, 10 more minutes.
Mark Normand
Just sleep till 8 instead of 7:30.
Renan
Because you're not controlling any dreams.
Sam Morril
Yeah, but here's where this news comes in. You want to be a go getter, so you set it for 7:30. And then you wake up like, what the fuck? Who am I? I'm not a go getter.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
So you set it for another 30. That's what it is.
Mark Normand
I guess.
Sam Morril
So we're all idealists when we go to bed. We're all like, we're going to take on the world tomorrow. But you know, you're not.
Mark Normand
Yeah, it's like that Gary Goldman jokes. Like, I set my phone for seven, I'm going to do the crossword puzzle. I'm going to work out. I'm going to make a smoothie. And then he's like, what am I, a farmer? Yeah.
Sam Morril
I remember opening for Gary Goldman back in the day and he was like, breakfast tomorrow, 9am And I was like a young drunk comic. And I was like, I was like counting my whiskeys that night. I was like, I can't be too hungover. He wants to eat breakfast at 9am but it was. It's a lesson. It's like, oh, this is a job.
Mark Normand
Oh, you did it.
Sam Morril
I did it.
Mark Normand
Oh, wow.
Sam Morril
I did it.
Mark Normand
But good for him. Good for you.
Sam Morril
Yeah, but I remember he was watching me drink. He's like, how do you do that? And I was like, I don't know.
Mark Normand
Yeah, I've had people do that too. Feels kind of good. You're like, I can handle it. You're a puss. Sam zones this puss.
Renan
I think there's something there. Sam.
Sam Morril
He's at our funeral. He's like, I always ask him how they did that.
Renan
I Think that's there's something there with. You're an idealist when you said it and you're a realist.
Sam Morril
I'm sure that's been done.
Renan
That's been done.
Sam Morril
Yeah, I think, I don't think that's
Mark Normand
like a sign about that. He's like this night guy and this morning guy and he's like, I hate night guy. Night guy's like, I'll be fine. Another movie, another ice cream sundae. And then morning guy's like, what are you doing to me? Yeah, be night guy.
Sam Morril
It's different, but it's a better version of whatever that is. It's like, that's just a bet. It's been done better.
Mark Normand
I got a peeve. This is comedy specific. Maybe, but you're in the showroom and you got a comic person, a friend, an associate, whatever.
Sam Morril
Another open micro is about to get destroyed here.
Mark Normand
That kid was a nice kid. I don't want to jump off the fucking bridge, but you got the comic in the showroom. You're both watching. Oh, man, this guy's really funny. Yeah, look at that. Oh, that's a great joke. But he won't stop talking in the showroom. So now I'm an accomplice because the guy, the comics on stage like, hey, can you guys shut up back there? Who is that? What's going on? And I'm like, what do you do? We're comedians. And you're breaking the cardinal rule of you're, you're a heckler now. Basically you're talking during the show, like, hit me in the lobby. Hit.
Sam Morril
The loud talker is a tough one
Mark Normand
in the showroom and he's a comedian. So I'm like, you should know, this is crazy. And now you're including me. So I'm a part of the crime now.
Sam Morril
I've done though, like, we got to keep it. It's usually a drunk guy.
Mark Normand
That's usually, that's what it was.
Sam Morril
A shit faced guy who's just like talking way too loud. I'm like, hey, we should, we should keep it down a little. And by we, I mean you. Exactly, Mr. Ninth Tequila.
Mark Normand
I know I had the guy. I was at a New York comedy club, sold out. I'm in the back by the door and this guy's like, oh man, that's a great joke. I helped him write that. That was my tag. And I'm like, shut the fuck up. We look like assholes. Yeah, you're including me in the crime.
Sam Morril
Loud talkers in quiet rooms are Tough.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
Even in a movie. You ever watch a movie with someone and they just keep talking? Yes. It's like, even when it's just two of us, I'm like, what are you doing? Like, I'm all for the commentary during the low scenes without dialogue, but you can't talk over important dialogue.
Mark Normand
I know.
Sam Morril
That was pertinent to the plot right there.
Mark Normand
How about the people get mad when you pause it?
Sam Morril
I go. I do. I go further. I go back.
Mark Normand
I go back, too.
Sam Morril
I wanna. I wanna see what happens.
Mark Normand
I need every line that was one
Sam Morril
of my old bits is, you know Annie Hall. Yeah.
Renan
Yeah.
Sam Morril
She's talking to me the whole. She keeps telling me about her day, and I pause it. She's like, what? She's like, you're ignoring me for Annie Hall. And I go, was your story nominated for seven Academy Awards? It's a harder one to get away with these days. Because now they're like, why Woody Allen?
Mark Normand
You could tweak it. You could tweak it to.
Sam Morril
I mean, I'm not telling it anymore. Shut here. But, yeah, no, it's. I love when. And also, talking is for bad movies, right? Like, you want to watch a Steven Seagal movie? Let's talk through it. Make jokes the whole time.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
We're watching, like, a really good. Especially during foreign films. I'm like, oh, my God. It's hard enough to pay attention here.
Mark Normand
I know. I need the dialog. I went to see the Matrix. This is how long ago this is. And my friend's like, I've seen it. You got to see it. You know that guy, he's like, I'm going with you to see.
Sam Morril
They watch. They study your every reaction, staring at you.
Mark Normand
I hate that. I hate people watching me react.
Sam Morril
Neo, you're the one.
Mark Normand
Yeah. Or the guy was like, let me show you my hot rod I built with my dad. And you're like, oh, okay, great. And he shows it to you. And you're like, hey, how about that? And he's like, that's it. And you're like, wow, I'm on the spot here. Let me enjoy the hot rod. I gotta. Who's this for, me or you?
Sam Morril
Oh, dude, the girl I'm seeing now, her ex is gay, so she'll, like, tell me stuff. And my enthusiasm is just not enough.
Mark Normand
Never.
Sam Morril
When you were with a gay guy before, she's like, I made this dress. I'm like, oh, cool. And she's like, that's it. I'm like, yeah, that's all I have to give on a dress you made. I'm a straight guy.
Mark Normand
Yeah, exactly.
Sam Morril
Break some freaking. Break some free agency, Knicks news, and then I'll fucking lose my mind. If you want to see a big
Mark Normand
reaction also, that could be. Could be a test to see if you're gay. Let me show you this dress.
Sam Morril
I love it.
Mark Normand
You're like my ex. This is over.
Sam Morril
Yeah, I called it fabulous.
Mark Normand
It was weird. It's fierce. How about the guy who. He shows you something, he wants your reaction, so you fake a big reaction, Then he yells at you for faking it. I'm like, which one is it? If I go, oh, that's cool. You go, that's it. But if I go, whoa. How about that? He's like, oh, you didn't mean it. I'm like, I can't win here. It's a lot of stuff.
Sam Morril
No winning in life.
Mark Normand
Can't win.
Sam Morril
There's no winning.
Mark Normand
Can't be genuine, can't be fake.
Renan
No one makes it out alive, I guess.
Sam Morril
So I got a good wreck for you. And I text both of you guys about it because I haven't seen it since I was a kid, and I was definitely too young the first time I saw it. Documentary. Hoop dreams from the 90s classic. It's a 10 out of 10 movie. It's like, as good a doc as ever has been made. Yeah, even you don't have to like basketball. Like, I. I know people who love this, who didn't, who never like basketball. It's. It's like three hours.
Mark Normand
Is this Chicago?
Renan
Yes.
Mark Normand
Yes. They send the kid to the white school. Yeah, a lot of white people.
Sam Morril
Isaiah Thomas went there. Yeah, he was a Chicago guy. But, dude, it's. It's so intimate, like, the way they show the families. And the dad is struggling with the drug addiction, and it's just like an incredible movie.
Mark Normand
Great movie. This is what a doc is supposed to be. This is, like, top tier. Well, who made it?
Sam Morril
I forgot it was three guys.
Mark Normand
Oh, really?
Renan
It's the first time I've ever seen a doc that, like, takes six years to make.
Mark Normand
Yes. Yes.
Sam Morril
So you see them from, like, eighth grade to college.
Renan
What's that?
Sam Morril
Eighth grade to college.
Mark Normand
Wow. And did they make it?
Sam Morril
They didn't make the NBA, but they, you know, they had college careers. And. Yeah, it was.
Renan
It's.
Sam Morril
It's a lot. A lot of stuff. A lot of emotions. The families, it's complicated home life. But then they're also very loving parents. But then also one of the guys gets a scholarship revoked Cause he was smaller and didn't really pan out. And then it turns out he's really good.
Mark Normand
Right?
Sam Morril
So it's crazy. It's a really, really good movie. Not just about basketball. It's a great, Great doc.
Mark Normand
The 90s really embraced basketball. It was such a. Remember, like, above the Rim?
Sam Morril
Hell, yeah.
Mark Normand
Space Jam. And even Every Little Thing was basketball back then. Michael Jordan, I guess, was.
Sam Morril
Jordan just was crushing. Blew through the roof.
Mark Normand
Yeah, yeah.
Renan
Oh, sorry. The director also made an Allen Iverson, 30 for 30.
Sam Morril
Oh, I heard. That's a great one. Yeah. I mean, you can't go wrong with Iverson, man.
Mark Normand
No, no. AI. The original Hoop Dream. I mean, I gotta. I gotta wreck off your wreck.
Renan
Which one was it?
Mark Normand
I hit Celic. I'm with the wife. We're bored. We already banged. She can't drink. Whatever. She's going through some stuff. So we need a show. We need a show. So I'm like, ah, I don't know any shows. We finished the Apple show. What is it called? The one on the island.
Renan
Widow's Bay.
Mark Normand
Widow's Bay. We finished it.
Sam Morril
I'm starting that this week.
Mark Normand
And then so I hit. It's good. It's good. It's cute. We hit up Salacus, and I go, hey, you got any shows? And he goes, I got one for you. Beef 2, the second season of Beef. And I was like, I didn't really love the first season. I like Ali Wong, whatever. But I didn't love the first season. He goes, this is totally different. It's got a White Lotus vibe. It's better than White Lotus.
Renan
Whoa.
Mark Normand
I think this is so well written. The acting. The British woman is unbelievable. Oscar Isaacs kills it.
Sam Morril
Oh, he's good.
Mark Normand
It's so well done. And it's one of those shows that makes you anxious when you're watching it and you hate everybody, but you root for them, but you hate them. But they're bad people. Really well done. Beef two, second season.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Check that out. It's right there on Netflix. You don't have to go searching for it.
Renan
Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of season one. I watched the whole thing. But this is almost like a whole separate series.
Mark Normand
Oh, completely.
Renan
Yeah.
Mark Normand
Damn. It's just. These people are bad. People are all out for themselves, and they keep getting further and further into the shit, and they have to keep getting out of it. It's. It's one of those. It's really well done.
Sam Morril
Damn.
Mark Normand
Very good.
Sam Morril
All right, I'll give it. I'd do Widow's Bay first, but are
Mark Normand
you doing World Cup? Are you watching anything?
Sam Morril
I mean, that this can be dated by the time it comes out, but, yeah, I mean, that fucking Viking from Norway. How cool is that guy?
Mark Normand
Hollandaise.
Sam Morril
Love that guy.
Mark Normand
He's great. I want a deep dive with that guy. He's been doing this since he was 16, like, making those goals. And he's 65 and, you know, he
Sam Morril
also probably would have been gray at any sport. He's just one of those. He's, like, big and strong and fast. And you see these videos of him. Like, you can push your body to another level. You just realize, like, there's a. And it's like, no, you can push your body to another level.
Mark Normand
He is a Viking. Well, that's what you want out of Norway. You want this guy. And they got him. And he's got some real DSLs on him, too, by the way. Oh, yeah, he's a. Have you seen all the news with the. The Brazilian player. His girlfriend looks like this guy. Really? Everybody's AI ing these two fucking. And it went so viral that he hit up the Brazilian guy, who's. He's like a young black guy, and he's like, we got to do something together because this is, like, blowing up.
Sam Morril
Fuck your girlfriend.
Mark Normand
Yeah. So now they're. They're hanging out.
Sam Morril
Damn, dude.
Mark Normand
But really cool. He's been going to Texas. There's all these videos of him in Texas putting on the. The cowboy hat and cats.
Sam Morril
His deli.
Mark Normand
He catches deli. That's great.
Sam Morril
That's a great. A photo op for them.
Mark Normand
Everything's like 5 million views. 6 million views. The guys. People love him.
Sam Morril
Yeah, he's box office. Also. I'm watching this tennis, man. The tennis has been great. The Wimbledon men and women.
Mark Normand
Oh, I mean, shit. I even know about this.
Sam Morril
So fun, man. Great, great matches.
Mark Normand
Love tennis. What a.
Sam Morril
What a. Yeah. Djokovic had a fucking amazing match the other day.
Mark Normand
He's the man.
Sam Morril
He's on. Hanging on, dude. Hanging on. Yeah, he's so. It's so badass. That's a cool thing about these athletes. They get older and it's like, at certain time, Father Time's gonna take over. But the ones that kind of hang on. Yes, he is the goat.
Mark Normand
He really is cool, dude. It's all mental.
Sam Morril
Yeah, soccer's fun, man. I'm enjoying it.
Mark Normand
We had lunch at the Cellar yesterday in that Argentina game. Oh, Messi is really, really imaginable.
Sam Morril
Guy was looking like Jalen Brunson out there.
Mark Normand
I know.
Renan
I'm glad we finally tied it to the Knick somehow.
Sam Morril
He's unreal.
Renan
You know what I've been enjoying about this World cup thing is all the people from Europe and Africa and South America coming to the United States, loving it and loving it. Being like, I heard this was a hellhole. I heard that. You know, the streets are dangerous, and they're like, people are giving me free rides. I'm getting beers.
Sam Morril
Yeah. People from Haiti are like, we heard it was unsafe here.
Renan
Right?
Mark Normand
Free rides they get at a restaurant. There's air conditioning going, and they get ice in a water glass. That blows their mind. They're all addicted to ranch. They're going to BUC EE's and Costco Ranch. They love it.
Sam Morril
Love a good Buc ee's, dude.
Mark Normand
Oh, yeah, The Lou. We got Buc ee's.
Sam Morril
Yeah. No, it's. It's cool. It's hilarious that Trump tried to. He talked to FIFA.
Mark Normand
He did fix it.
Renan
He fixed it, though.
Sam Morril
He fixed it. But he's bad luck.
Mark Normand
We lost.
Sam Morril
The one Knicks game they lost in, like, 13 games was the one he went to.
Renan
When I say fix it, I mean. Rigged it. He rigged.
Sam Morril
He actually rigged it. Yeah, he didn't. He rigged it and we lost. And then he didn't say anything.
Mark Normand
Right. I know.
Sam Morril
I love that. He's like, I've been looking into it. Apparently, a red card means you have to sit the next game. We're like, you didn't know that?
Renan
He said, we'll have better luck next year.
Mark Normand
He's also gotten rid of some green cards. Okay. But, yeah, yeah, the whole thing sucks. And we still blew it.
Sam Morril
And all our good athletes are playing different sports.
Mark Normand
It's not our sport. If we're going to adopt a foreign sport, it should have been Sumo. We got the fatties. We can do it. And we're. We're just not. It's not a soccer.
Sam Morril
We got enough people if. If we. If we had, like, a LeBron playing, you know.
Mark Normand
Yeah. With the WNBA of soccer, sadly, just not for us. I'm sorry. It's low scoring, though.
Sam Morril
We are no in. In women's basketball. We own it, dude.
Mark Normand
That's true. Well, what are we, New York?
Sam Morril
No, no, no. Well, I mean, just the US Team.
Mark Normand
Us. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got the fever.
Renan
Also, women's women won the US Women won the last three World Cups or something.
Mark Normand
That's a good point.
Sam Morril
Yeah.
Renan
We do something.
Sam Morril
Well, because they. Because there's no money in any women's sports except for, like, Tennis and golf. So they're like, we'll just play soccer because we love it.
Mark Normand
You gotta love it.
Sam Morril
And turns out that leads to winning.
Mark Normand
Yeah.
Sam Morril
All right, I got Brea improv coming up August 21st through 23rd. Then we got Europe. We got Lisbon, Athens, Budapest, Zagreb, Vienna, Warsaw. Added a second night there, we got Helsinki, Sweden, Copenhagen. And then I added a couple club dates. I'm going to add more. Stay tuned for more dates. Just go to Punchup Live, shamarrill Tour.

Mark Normand
Yeah, it was the Knicks colors.

Sam Morril
Oh, nice.
Renan
It's a tour doc where he's trying to build an hour for his Netflix special while his wife is going through cancer treatment.
Mark Normand
Oh, wow. Heavy stuff.
Sam Morril
I heard both of them almost died. All right, it was right there, dude. It was right there. No, I heard it's very good. Give it a watch.
Renan

Mark Normand
All right, well, we're cooking. Thanks, folks. We'll see you next time with a guest. All right, Sunday's the day for my next offender. A bit of piva wreck. You know, the beer chew's close.
Sam Morril
I've had a little too much burping,
Mark Normand
and Norman's talking shit about the fucking poke. And I get down in the same
Sam Morril
way up on the roof like a cops coming and naked Samuel is feeling
Mark Normand
dangerous I'm out to lunch here in New Orleans this woman doesn't look like I remember her? And I get down in the same
Renan
way
Mark Normand
we might be true.

The language is irreverent, quick-witted, self-deprecating, and intentionally edgy. Both Sam and Mark balance sharp observational comedy with sincere moments about their craft and modern life, never missing a chance for a callback, an inside-comedy reference, or a joke that pushes boundaries. Plenty of rapid-fire banter, gentle ribbing, and breaking into character voices and hypothetical standup bits.
This episode of "We Might Be Drunk" is a quintessential hang with two of NYC’s sharpest comics, bouncing between genuine industry advice, the daily grind of new joke writing, pop culture dissection, and pure comic chemistry. Highlights include relatable peeves, tales of navigating comedy crowds, reflections on privilege, and the endless grind of being funny for work and life alike.
Highly recommended moments:
