until you acknowledge that I got it first today, screwing Brodie.
You didn't get it first. I did, well, you didn't.

listen to this in reverse? Then my name will be first. Jesus. Yeah,
I've got so much going on, man, But like, we
don't have a whole lot of time. We had a
social media up storm the last couple of days, which

(01:02):
we'll talk about in a minute. This podcast, we're gonna
do most of what we normally do, except we have
a big guest calling in you're so excited for Sebastian Menascalco.
If you don't know him, he's a comedian. He does
stand up, but he's a physical comedian. I think he
has the physicalities of a Jim Carry. But he's got
the jokes like a fill in the blank of your

(01:22):
favorite Italian American. He just says funny. He's a funny
guys Italian American. He's just funny. He's from Chicago. He
lives in l a But I swear to sounds like Yorker.
I'm telling you he does. He the stuff that he
does on stage. I got to see he's pudy, I legit,
pitsched in my pants. I saw him at the Borgotta
last summer. Where else would you see an Italian comic? Right?

(01:44):
And he does sold out shows. His tickets are talked
about him for a week and a half. You gotta
gotta I saw him. There's one bid he did. There's
other biddy, did you gotta see? Oh he's a great
comedian ever Yeah, and and and the guy was on you.
The guy's got YouTube clips. He does a showtimes actual
everyone I have YouTube. It's the problem. His name is
unspellable for a lot of people. So if you get

(02:06):
yourself prepared when we get him on the phone, it's
Sebastian Maniscalco. Get yourself here's what you do. Know, you
get yourself ready for Google to tell you. Did you
mean that's all you google Sebastian Meniscalco. Spelling anyway you want.
You don't hit the feeling Lucky button, you know it
says uh. Instead we searched for the correct spelling. Here
you go. Well it's M A N I S C

(02:27):
A L C O Maniscalco. But but yeah, I do
use I'll tell you what I've gotten lazy because of
that little feature in Google where you just kind of
like get it close and then you just know it's
gonna come. Are you gonna get nervous talking to him?
Are you gonna have like long run on questions? And
I might might out? I can see you going, you're

(02:48):
such a fan my idols, but I don't have any other.
I don't have trouble getting my thoughts out regularly. But well,
but when a guy like that's on the phone, speaking
of which, speaking of people, who may is nervous? You
and I? After this podcast, we're going down the hall
to do an interview with Jackie the joke Man Martling.
If you don't know who he is, I'm shocked, but

(03:10):
dotty much David Brody, Well, I'm David. My job description
is I'm not on his level. But Jackie was Howard
Stern's joke writer for fifteen years. He's still studios across
from Howard, wrote jokes, put him right on, wrote the
room and paper, and then handed the paper and put
in front of Howard and how it would work the
punch lines or jokes or add ons into the conversation

(03:31):
pretty much paved the way for a guy like you, Brodie.
He did it for free for a number of years,
like I did for a year and a half, made
himself a job that didn't exist like I did. And I, Babe,
when people say to me, like I listen to Howard,
what do you what do you do? I don't listen
to Elvis? I go, I'm pretty much Jackie the joke
man for Elvis what I mean? And and he's like,
what someone else does my job? You know? So even
if you never listened to Howard Stern, you know, even

(03:53):
if he didn't know who he was, because he was
kind of like before Alretie Lang if you kind of
know already Lang, and now Altd's not even there, so
he was like the guy before that it's been I mean,
he's there from the seventies, eighties into the nineties, right.
So it's an interesting interview because it's gonna be I think,
because he has a book out and he pretty much
chronicles his life bleeding up leading up to the Howard

(04:14):
Stern Show, during the Howard Stern Show after afterwards, and
he has like, from what I understand, little juicy details
in this book that's coming out. I'm excited to tell
him a little bit about what I do and let
it because I'm a fan. But then I grew up
to be him, Like I have a career based on
what he did, and I think that for me to
be able to tell him that and to talk to
Hi about I'm excited. I'm little I'm fan boying a
little bit as well too. I might actually uh flubb

(04:36):
and stuff flubb of stammer on him too, But I
hope you don't, all right, you hope we don't know, Okay,
So I definitely want to talk about jokes we didn't
get to. I have I have nine rants but I'm
only do like one or two. Make sure you tell
Jackie that in the interview too, that that that's what
you do unused punch lines. Oh absolutely, well that's a
great idea. I'll tell him that. Um. I always let
this be as self serving as possible. Play play the jingle,

(05:00):
each one, the one about you know, the one about
the one that's a Can I just tell you about this?
Play the jingle? Okay, So Tuesday night, we're taking this
on Thursdays. So two days ago, as most of you know,
Scary and I were going to our steak dinner that

(05:21):
Scary promised to buy me a steak dinner five years ago,
August two thousand, twelve, five years two months. Okay, So
on the way to steak dinner, we went to Brooklyn
College where we went to what we both went to college,
and we spoke to some students, like we told you
we were gonna do about radio and the career and
the whole thing. And then we we went to Delmonico's
for dinner. Delmonico is the oldest restaurant New York, the

(05:42):
first it's actually the first restaurant in America. In America,
it's the first restaurant to be named in restaurant. Before that,
they were just they invented baked Alaska. They invented a
striped steak that that cut a steak. Many of the
dishes we today they invented. Okay, they invented those, and
those are on menus all across America. I mean, this
is a legendary restaurant. It's also in a look called
the top ten most important restaurants in America? Are any

(06:04):
of the ones you invested in over the years on
that list, because you invest in a lot of restaurants,
kind would be the top ten restaurant closings. So part
of what I love about our our listeners is it
on the way to dinner. The whole afternoon, we were
getting tweets, Hey, it's steak dinner night. Hey are you
guys on your way to steak? Like everybody was into
the steak thing people and my other thing. So I

(06:25):
think with Jake Lipschitz, who said, are you bringing catchup
packages like you do when you go to the ball game. Yeah,
because they know they know you guys listened so well.
I know my my stick and my my in in
in Yiddish, there's a term called miss Mr Goss means like, oh,
that's the ship that he carries. Would that's his that's
his stick. Mr Goss is like all the things that
bother him, or like he's a lot of want to

(06:46):
know if you brought catch up right by the way,
I think it is a crime. I did put a
little ketchup on the plate. It's not in the picture
that I posted. I did have a little ketchup on
the side, which I but I also had the peppercorn sauce,
which I I leaned on heavily. How great was that dinner? Unbelievable?
First of all, shout out to Delmonico's not a sponsor, Dennis. Okay,
so we'll get to that minute. If you didn't hear

(07:07):
the whole story on the other Strate morning show, but
thanks so. How many people tweeted us and said they're
glad that I got my dinner, but they were upset
that they won't hear the jingle anymore. They love the
steak Update jingle. Yeah, I mean, I gotta tell you,
it's become a staple of this podcast. One one person
on Instagram, you know who you are, even said, can
you find something else that's Scary can owe you so

(07:27):
that you can rewrite the jingle and then bitch about that.
So I said, well that's possible. So what we So
we had this amazing dinner, amazing dinner. You and I
sat down and now now waiting. Okay, so let's you.
You made the reservation, right, you took care of that.
We got to the restaurant, and by the way, I
made the reservation with a public relations agency because on

(07:49):
hold on, I gotta I gotta say how you said
your name when we got there, and then you can
explain it. But I'll tell you why, because let me
explain what you did. First, we walked into the restaurant.
I'm gonna come clean, and you went to the beauty
full hostess. Oh my god, and I said, and you said,
table for two for Scary Jones from because that's how
I made the reservation. And then the reason why I
made the reservation that way, because I made it through

(08:10):
the public relationship. But it was from ZE one hundred.
Your last name Scary Jones from ZE one hundred. Well,
because because that's how it was written. And they told
me when I made the reservation, because I wanted to
get a good table at a great restaurant. And that's
a very tough hour to get get a table at
that restaurant, cause it's after work, it's in the financial district,

(08:31):
it's right by Wall Street where all the craziness happens.
We're all these big all the business the business tycoon
and these moneyball people. They are freaking you know, they
they fight over the baseball people. But that's okay. What
doesn't matter. People full of money. You got money dripping
down to your balls. That's what I meant, my money balls.
But anyway, that's not what But you like that, all right?

(08:53):
Catch it? Yeah? Anyway, The point is this, all right,
And I'm gonna be honest. That's why i mentioned my
name because I wanted to get and make sure we
gotta ta there a doctor home. On a second, doctors
do it at all the time. If you're a doctor,
you always try and call a restaurant and say doctor
so and so. Why because that means something. It holds weight.

(09:14):
And if I'm gonna I'm gonna do what I can
to get ahead. And just in the spirit of grabbing
a table, and I was not looking for and as
a foreshadowing, you know that when you say you're a
celebrity orty. But if you drop a name like that,
you work on the Elvis Right Morning Show, you work
at a big Raider station hundred. Sometimes they like to
have you there. They throw your free appetite, like Greg
T did a couple of weeks ago when he asked

(09:36):
me to book a table for him at Bobby Flay's restaurant,
Bobby Flay Steak at the Borgata in Atlantic City. Oh,
he was going to see Sebaston Man Scalco coincidence anyway.
The point is Greg T I did the same thing
for so when he went in there, he said, I'm
Greg T from because that's what it was booked under.

(09:56):
And yeah, you booked it, And there's hopes that maybe
the throw you. You love it a lot of times
when you do that, that's the icing on the way.
If they give you free icing on your cake and
free cake, that's great. So the Great Tea gets that
from and I was I figured, you know they're gonna
give it to So we get there, the beautiful hostess

(10:20):
walks us to our table, and Scary who's buying me
dinner taking me to my dinner, goes and gets the
good seat he takes the seat that faces the front
and out. What are you talking about? You know there's
a good seat. It's the seat that angles towards the
door and faces the dining room. You went right for
that seat in the old mob movies. It's the one
that no one knows that you want to face the door,

(10:42):
so no one sneaks up on you back, So I
said vice president style. I said to the side of
you like, not bad, but not the best seat. If
that was a date, you shouldn't let me pick the seat, gentleman.
Think they both seats. Okay, Now here's the thing. If
there was a banquet right where where along a second
where it was one a bank ahead on one side

(11:02):
and a chair on the other. I always always, and
you can talk to Robin about this. My girlfriend taking chair,
I always take the chair, and I always face the wall,
all right. I always give her the view, and anybody
I'm with, I give them the view and they get
to sit on the cushiony back. Anybody you're with, anybody
I'm with facing the room, so you get the atmosphere.
I would have liked that seat, you know what, because

(11:23):
I'm distracted easily. So if I'm with you. I want
to focus on you. And and so you took the
seat facing the door and the customers and everybody else. Well,
in this case, we're just boys. This was my this
was my night, and we both had chairs. There were
no bag catching. Okay, so we get we get the seats.
The waiter comes over, takes a drink over from us.
We just had soda and seltz or whatever, nothing fancy.

(11:44):
And then the hostess walks over to this area where's
a couple of waiters, and I see her pointing at us.
She's like, baba, those guys over there. I went, oh,
they must she must have gotten wind. And you are
scary Jones. So we order our sodas and diet coke noise,
and a gentleman comes also send back. I don't want

(12:07):
the ice. Send back. Why would I want ice, because
it waters down, the melts, it waters down to drink.
This guy, this freaking guy, it's bottomless soda. It's not
about the cost and scene. I've seen waiters funk up
his order with their diet coke no ice, and they
give him ice, and I'm polite about it. He sends
it then polite, I said, I said, you know, I'm
so sorry I ordered that without ice. Way got it

(12:27):
this way to got it right there? Okay he was,
of course, everything was right. They were fantastic. This gentleman
comes over to us and he says, Hi, my name
is Dennis. I just want to let you know I'm
a big fan. I love you guys that listen every morning.
I love Did you not think the public relations person
was going to tell the owner that you know he
was the owner? Would you stop jumping ahead? So he says,
can I sit down? I'd love to just I'm so
excited you're here. I love your phone taps whatever, sits

(12:48):
down with us and he says his name is Dennis.
He says, my family owns this place. I'm one of
the owners. I'm running this place twenty years. So happy
to have you here. Thank you for choosing us. You
know what brings you tonight? I got a story. That's
what we do on the podcast. And we tell him
that listen, we love Delmonico's. We've been here before, but
this is and we tell them the story about how
you owe me a steak dinner. I said, of all

(13:10):
the places when I said I want to go to
Delmonico's and you're like, absolutely, Demonico has gotta be He
was flattered by that. And then he's just started talking
to us about radio, about the history of the restaurant,
how Abraham Lincoln eight there, and all of a sudden, people,
these these figures from You've only read that in your
history books. So we ordered our appetizers. We had the
shrimp cocktail. We had the crab cakes. Oh my god,

(13:32):
all the crab cakes. And then we had I'm still
talking about this and maybe I may change my Twitter
name the King crab back in cheese. That was that
was that was food that that proves as a god.
That's how good it was. And you know, and then
of course we had some steaks. Well he recommended steaks,
and then we couldn't decide. He says, you know what,
I'll get you two steaks. What you like you have,
what you're like, you have you're like, and we'll precut them.

(13:53):
You could share them, whack him up, put it in
the middle. So fantastic, And so he's there, like at
this point, he's not like a half hour, we're just chatting.
He's great, and he's like, you mind if I guys
hang out I have some steaks. So he's the heaves
a steak, little pieces, little little potatoes, Delmonico's potatoes. He's
scared and I saw so he has a phone call.
He walks away, and I said, you know, Scary, I
love this guy, but if he if he's eating the food,

(14:15):
then technically you stole me like half a dinner. And
I was thinking the same thing to my ship right
now was great cameras on the owner of the restaurant,
and then they're gonna charge U for the full amount.
He said, my phone. Now that was just that was
lighthearted joking. I was more than happy. He couldn't have
been nice. We had a great time. So we're stuff.

(14:35):
We're liked. By the way, the second he started eating,
I knew that was coming. What was coming? Okay, what
was what was about to happen? So at that point,
first of all, Scary, I have to say, Scary is
very generous. When we first sat down, what appetizes? I said,
you know what, I think I'm gonna have the caesar salad.

(14:56):
Oh I didn't mention had caesar salad. He says, well,
I we should get trump cockta got a trimp cocktail.
I said, well, you get trimp cocktail. I get to
see a sala will split. It's like, I'm not used.
I'm not using this. I'm no, no, no, no, no no.
He says, let's get the crimp cakes too. I said, scary,
it's aboard. I'm I'm frugal with my money. I'm not cheap,
but I'm frugal. I'm very good tipper. And I don't
I'm one Morgan. I have to you live life large.

(15:19):
I have three kids and I live like that. The
one and so I said, what I say to you?
I said, scary, I don't feel right about this. This,
you're paying for this. I'm flattered and thrilled that you're
taking me in to dinner finally, after five years treating
He's like, no, order, more order more so. I said, well,
what your sill? So I said, you know, we won't
do dessert. Let's load up on the appetizer. Won't do dessert,

(15:40):
Let's plow through order that This appetize is fantastic. He's
a salad with an egg in it, unbelievable. The steaks tremendous,
a part of and the it was going will well,
and he's talking to us about the his Abraham Lincoln
ate there and that's how old of us that the
history is great, right, I know. So then he says, uh,
you know you want to I want to drink. I
said no, because I'm thinking, you you scary, You're gonna

(16:01):
pay for my drink. I don't want to order a drink.
I'm not I'm not like that. So I'm like, no,
I don't really want goes and he tells the way
to get him al lah lah blah, something fancy. I said, well,
all right, okay, it was fantastic. I don't drink a lot.
It was fantastic. I don't know what it was. It
was great. He says, that's my when people say they
don't drink. He got me that. I was like, okay,
all right, maybe he's competents the wine. So then it

(16:21):
we're done with the meal. I'll admit it. There was
food on the table, a little bit of bacon fried rice.
We had little bacon fried rice. There was a little
bit of everything, a little bit, not a lot. And
night the waiter came over. He's like, oh, I said,
I said, put everything in one one thing. Just I'll
take it. I figured my wife off a little bit
because she didn't get to come out tonight. My kids
maybe whatever. So then Dennis says, I gotta take a

(16:43):

gotta go with because a huge tab. We gotta work
in the morning. Let's no dessert. Let's just go thank
Dennis for a great time. We'll pay the check, we'll

what do you guys decide on for dessert? We'll fall
with Keenever, he says to the waiter, you know what,
uh one of my baked Alaska. She's kicking most of
this gotta thing. So I'm like, all right, he's giving

(17:04):
us free dessert, which is, by the way, all I
thought that we were going glass of wine free dessert. Whatever.
And how did I say? But when the second when
he when he was eating dinner with us, and he's
eating the dessert with us, and I'm like this guy,
I'm like here it comes. I'm like, I'm I just
knew what you wanted. You tell them what happened? Brodie?
So scary Scary and I look at each other. I'm
going I said, scary. I think he's gonna so I

(17:29):

I looked, I looked at Brody. He looked at me,
and we said podcast and I said, I did him

(17:52):
the look. You know, you know you know what this means.
That's right, right right, So Dennis walks away. I'll be
right back. I'm taking the phone call. And I said, Scary,
you didn't buy me dinner. This music was in your
head is playing in my head. I'm like, I'm sucking

(18:13):
Larry David right now. I've just got fucked. I gotta
i gotta do another dinner and do it. Have a
do over, right, And you said bullshit? And so so
Dennis came back and you said listen. Dennis said, very nice.
We we thanked him, and he said, I'm gonna leave
the tip. Scary left a very generous tip which I
offered to pay half. And you said, no, Brodie, I
got this, but you did say, well, you did say

(18:34):
that if you left half the tip with me that
we'd be square. No. No, I said that that I'll
leave half the tip. And I said no because I
want to pay the whole thing, because I want to
feel like right. And I said, if you pay the
whole tip, you're gonna tell me that you don't know me. Okay,
I left a hundred dollar bill because I feel like
we might have motored through close to five. You very generous.

(18:55):
I offer to give you half of you In my mind,
that clears me. Oh no, I know it clears you.
With the waiter, I drove your ask there. Oh please,
you have to drive back anyway from Brooklyn. I's paid
for park ten dollars and fifty cents on street parking.
And then I left the tip a hundred dollars. I said,
you know what, I'm wiping my hands to this. I
am I'm even with Brody square. I don't. Then we

(19:19):
so then we get back into Scary's car. We argue
the whole ten minute ride back to the hold On
I took the left or you weren't get eat him.
So we drove back to where my car was parked
by the radio station, and we're going up eighth Avenue,
which is near where the radio station is and my
garage where the car is where scary pokss car. Also,
as we're still arguing, and I've got this big bag
of leftovers, and they gave us the giant book right,

(19:42):
which is heavy in the bag of boils. By the way,
is awesome. Google it the ten most important, oh the
ten restaurants that changed America. So, as we're arguing, Scary
stops at the corner. Rather than make a left and
drive three quarters of a block and then a writer
writer right and back onto the avenue. He says, Brody,
get out here. I want to go right because I'm
going straight because because here's the thing, if I would
have made the right hand turn onto the side street,

(20:04):
I would have had to make four more turns, three
more turns, three more turns, and waited a couple of
to traffic lights to get three traffic lights. I'm like,
I'm not dealing with this. So to save himself driving
his nice car three red right turns, he makes me
walk because he was pissed that I wanted my friend
how to walk. Give me a break. It was fifty
ft to the girl. So the next morning straight so

(20:27):
Wednesday morning, we come in and we tell Elvis what happened,
and he save it for the radio. And we went
on the radio and and people called up and they
all agreed. Scary said he would buy you dinner. He
didn't buy you dinner. He owes you a dinner. But
that was only some people. And then we did a
video on Instagram at Elvis Durant, at Elvis Duran and
Elvis drand we posted it all over our socials and

(20:48):
by the way, oh my, this is a great time
to plug the social We got our social media, um,
we're enhancing a little bit. You could find the video
of a brilliant and I ranting, and and the picture
of Brody and the and the owner and myself yes,
and the food and the food, the food, the steak
dinner all at on Instagram at the Brooklyn Boys and

(21:11):
also on Facebook at the Brooklyn Boys, both places. By
the way, that was a little plug for our new
follow us there on Twitter. We're still at Brooklyn Boys.
Want and we'll have another one, okay, so go ahead.
So Elvis says, save it for the air, we go
on there. Okay, so Twitter yesterday and Instagram blew up

(21:31):
with we love you whether you agree with me or not,
although most people agree with me. Nope, please, I would
say we were about niney Jones, David, go, look anyone
who's listening to go and count up everyone you're blind,
and then tweet us the total count. Shut up. Ten

(21:51):
people were like, well, you left a big tip. I
think they agree with you anyway, So you are so cheap.
I'm not sure it's not about cheap. You were supposed
to buy me dinner. Dennis brought me dinner. Dennis shout
out to dennist Well, if we don't want to pick
apart every word, then okay, Brodie, I owe you a
steak dinner. I could buy you a freaking I go
to Philly and buy you a cheese steak. I love

(22:14):
cheese stakes a Philly. But here's the problem. You know dinner.
I'll be like Brodia dinner. You promised to me a
big dinner. You know McDonald's. You know what I did.
You know what it cost me, and it costs me
more than a tips. So you're saying I'm not off
the hook. First of the resolution, to. People are coming
into this podcast right now wanting to know where do
we go from. Here's the resolution. Number one way, a

(22:35):
great time, regardless of who paid, great time. Your intention
was to pay, but you didn't. I'm no anger because
we got lucky. We both got a wonderful meal from
a wonderful restaurant, Almonico's. Andy c on Twitter. Not a sponsor.
Not a sponsor. They should be. Yeah, So Dennis, thank you.
If you're listening, Dennis, maybe you want to sponsor a podcast.
Oh we love that. If Dennis sponsors the podcast, how

(22:58):
about that? Maybe I'll let you have the Well, we
had a caller this morning on the Big Show that
said the first caller of the day. He said that
he was going to Delmonico's tonight. Yeah, I know, and
he didn't. Has nothing to do with us. So anyway,
if you're in New York, it's you might as well goes.
It's expensive financial experience, the two restaurantstown financials. So here's
what I'd like to do. What I'm gonna do. Yes,

(23:19):
I'm wanting you in advance. When Sebasti Mena Scalt calls,
he's the time guy you relate to he's one of
the boys. I'm gonna ask him to give him the
scenario and see what he says. Well, I'll tell you what.
Whatever he says, well, we agree to it. We'll abide
by it. Whatever he says. You know what, I think
he's gonna side with me, all right. I think I
would think I'll agree. I'll agree with whatever Sebastian man
of scutt I I told you respect him, your fans

(23:42):
asked him. At some point, I'll work it in. I'll
tell him the scenario and whatever he says goes, and
then we'll play that. We'll play the clip on on
the morning show of him settling the bet. We'll play
a clip of this saying whatever he says, and then
we'll play a clip of him saying it, and they'll
be done. You hear that. And I'm willing to if Sebastian,
I'm scary Jones will abide by anything Sebastian Maniscalco says.

(24:06):
And I said, David Brody, whatever he says, I will
abide by I and I will abide by if he
if he so, if he seems like a fair way
to settle, it's it is a nice way to settle
because he gets he's he may say screw you, you
got your dinner and and then I'm out, And he
may say you're okay with that? Are you prepared? How
else are we gonna say? Yeah, I guess I mean,

(24:27):
I'm not in my favor. Look, I have to believe
it's he probably will rule in your favor because I've
seen his stand up. But I like him and it's
one of the boys. He's one of the boys. Guys.
It's like I grew up with it. He's either gonna
say got the funk or he's gonna say whatever. So
that's all right. So that's it. It's up to him.
I think it's time for some unused punch line. So

(24:48):
we were talking about people who fart, celebrities who fart.
I don't remember why we were doing that, and uh
I said, you know, he farts a lot. QUI flatifa
get to that. Why did we not use that on
the show. And then we were talking about we're talking
about Breaking Bad, and they said the Breaking Bad house,
people in the house how to put up a big

(25:09):
fence because people come by and throw pizza at them.
They throw pizza on the roof, they throw pizza and
so my joke, which Elvis didn't get to, was, oh,
they come by the house and they make a huge meth.
I didn't get to that. Love punts are funny. I
love play, okay. Um. We were talking about who that

(25:29):
isn't really Italian, and I said, what are you talking about?
I went to all of Garden for the grilled cheese marinara.
We didn't get to that. Oh. We were playing a
game called butt Hurt, where you will you read a
description of somebody, then you say who you think is
the most person that in the room that that fits
and but hurt. And they're like, oh, you know, the
game hurts, but you know it's funny, and I said, yeah,

(25:50):
it's butt hurt. After a few times, the game doesn't
hurt anymore. Now. This one was on The Sex Show.
By the way, I didn't think we would ever do that,
okay Um. This joke I thought was very Catholic, and
if you understand the Catholic tradition of picking a pope,
you would get it. Um. But we didn't do this joke.

(26:14):
And so we were talking about for pasta day, different pastas,
different shape pastas, and one of them was up the
Pope's here. Pasta called the popsipe, and I said, it
goes great with white smoked gouda. If you know you
pick a pope, when you see the white smoke, it
means you have a new pope. So the jew I
made the clever joke, and we didn't get to it.

(26:35):
And then here's a joke I want to throw in
because I'm so proud of it, even though we did it.
Uh see, it was on stage and her nipple popped
out of her shirt or something, right, that was the story,
and so my joke was you could see a boob
on stage, see it. So that was that. We did
use that joke. But I loved it so much I
wanted to read it. He got some emails because I
gotta rant. I want to save it. Then we probably

(26:57):
have only a couple of minutes before Sebastian calls. That
sounds like it's mail time. Welcome, you've got mail. All right, Well,
we are getting some feedback on episode number eleven. I
wanted to say, they love the Fat Jewish. That was
when the Fat Jewish was here last time. Oh it's

(27:18):
been that's been that long, Yeah it's been yeah, yeah, yeah,
last the last episode was the Number eleven and with
Fat Ye Anyway, good morning Brooklyn Boys, never mind, good
morning Brodyan, Scary, sorry scary, Okay, thank you? See how
I come. I'm not trying to Yeah, I have the email.
I'm not trying to twisted. Are you reading the guy's words?
Because I'm a stand up, he probably thinks I should

(27:41):
get it dinner. I wanted to email you guys for
a long time. I don't use social media since I
try to avoid as much human contact as possible. Okay,
I appreciate you guys keeping the email option. The way,
social media is not human contact. Oh, this person is
commending me for keeping open an email. Remember originally when
we started this podcast, you were like, Nah, nobody emails anymore.

(28:01):
I created. Yeah, by the way, the email just the
Brooklyn Boys podcast at gmail dot com. Yes, I'm Scary Jones.
Do re your email, and by the way, I'm not.
I didn't think we need an email account. But if
you're gonna write brody and scary in that order and
feel free to emails. Yeah. I love the show, look
forward to every single week. Latest episode with the Fat
Jewish was the best episode yet. I wish that he
could be a regular. When is he so he would

(28:23):
be brody, scary and fat Jewish? When does he come?
When is he coming back? I mean he had a
good time. I feel like we said let's do it again.
After we were walking out of here. We bonded with him,
so I think that he will be back here when
his book comes out. He's got a book coming out, right,
everyone's coming out with rolls and stripper polls. If you
heard the episode, now, he bonded with us, not in
a way where he said, hey, hang out with me

(28:44):
and Madonna, but he did say he'd love to do
it again and let's chat and brainstorm somethings. So we
loved him. Kyle, his name is, who wrote this email?
I continue, He continues to say, I have to say, Scary,
you weren't one of my favorites on The Big Show
when I started listening three years ago, but ever since
hearing this podcast, you have become one of my favorites.
I appreciate all the work and effort you both put

(29:05):
into the show, and I can't wait to listen to
this week's episode. Well that's I guess. It's not a
backhanded compliment. It's a compliment. Taking this compliment, it's a
complis and a lot of people are saying similar things
to be email because I'm really we're kind of like
we we don't on the big show. There's just it's
just a crowded room. There's a lot going on as
fast paced you chime in and get out live morning radio,
so there's a lot of stuff happening. You stick your

(29:26):
head in the in the lion cage and then you
pull it right back out right, and I I'm taking
pictures of the lion cage from like ten feet away, right,
So this is an opportunity for us to be who
we are good to bad? Alright, how many more emails? Have?
Just one? I'm not gonna welcome another one. Just keep
it short. From Anna Alexander. I love your podcast. I
am from Wisconsin and know nothing about Brooklyn or New

(29:46):
York City, so I get to learn something new while
being entertained. I agree, Brody, the birthdays are stupid, but
I love how mad it makes you when Scary secretly
reads them. So I can't decide now. Thank you both
for all the laughs and looking forward to many more podcasts. Uh.
And then she points out a technical glitch that was
on our page. I wanted to do this email anyway,

(30:09):
Thank you for finally ah ps, thank you Scary for
finally explaining what Tony Soprano was eating all these years.
Hashtag gobba gool that's coppa colam but he was eating.
But he to Soprano used to pronounce yeah. So let
me address the birthdays, by the way, and then I

(30:30):
want to address uh Brooklyn a little bit just for
a second. Alright, no problem, So let me just say
something about the birthdays. The birthdays they're gonna go away
from this podcast. That's a little uh, that's a win
for you, David Brodie, but they will be resurfacing on
a new podcast, and I know you're in favor of
this brand. Um our Friends, Share Share Cancenza, Share Knows

(30:53):
love Her, who was on the previous podcast that I did.
Um She and I are now going to do a
podcast called Speaking Volumes and uh, we are looking for
a distribution right now. We haven't set it up, but
we are already recording episodes and we will be doing
a birthday list. That's where the birthday list will be moving. Okay,
so I will be reading birthdays on the other podcast,

(31:15):
but because I have another one. The email that we
just read was from who Agan. It was from uh
Anna Alexander. Okay, so Anna said she likes that I'm
annoyed by the birthday list. If you'd like, Anna, I
will go over to the other podcast and screaming them
for their birthday. You know what I think, ceremonially like
they throw the ceremonial first picture. I have to come

(31:36):
over and have to come over and interrupt me doing
the birthdays on the other pod. You'll be down the
hall at the crappy studio, right Yeah, that's where I'm
doing with the light that flashes and blinks. Um. And
you know what, this is an old you know, we
never got to read emails last week, so we might
want to talk about the hashtag Brooklyn boys. Uh So,
this is from Malia Ballast for MS at the beginning,

(31:58):
I'm a faithful listen to your podcast from the small
town of Hershey. P A apologize if you've received many
comments about this already where the streets are paved with
brown pavement right along the Hershey Highway. But I wanted
to remark on the amber sand and hashtag conversation. You
guys had. I studied graphic design in college and I
learned that another name for the hash symbol is an
octo thorpe. Who would have guessed it, Prody. The prefaces

(32:22):
prefixes octo because it's used before. The symbol has eight,
and the symbol has eight end points. That's octo my opinion,
The name of the symbol the hashtag is all related
to what you're using it for. Pound for a phone,
hash for social number, octo thorpe for design, and so on.
I don't want to be that guy who corrects everything.
I just love passing on useless little tidbits of knowledge

(32:44):
and maybe it'll come in Handy love putting on the
Brooken Boys podcast in the background while I'm at work.
So nice hearing directly from the guys working mostly in
the background of such a great morning show. You both
have great personalities and I wish you both the best.
That's Malia and by the way, Malia Sasha, by the way, yeah,
uh yeah. I just wanted to say one thing. All right,

(33:04):
I've gotten Brodie. This is a couple of weeks ago,
so I just have to say this. You told me
on this podcast that everyone knew what ambersond was no,
not everyone. You said that a lot of most people did,
but I got a lot of personal responses that said, hey, scary,
thank you so much for explaining that what that squiggly
line the and sign is called an ambersond. You called

(33:26):
it out on the podcast that nobody knew what it
was or not, and Brodie disagreed with you that most
people knew what I said, but they didn't know that
that's what it was called because I told you they were.
Most people didn't. It wasn't common knowledge. What's common for you, Brodie, Mr,
I go to college at sixteen years old is not common.

(33:47):
It's a long time ago. I'm just well, anyway, whatever
we can, what knowledge we can impart to other people
is great. Here's another lesson speaking from Brooklyn. Somebody on
Instagram commented how much they loved the couple of stu
nods that we are. Yes, so um, stund is like
it is stupid, right, yeah, yeah, you can be stund.

(34:08):
I've never I've never known stun to be a noun.
Like you wouldn't say someone is a stupid, you'd say
they are stupid. But they referred to us as a
couple of stun nods, which you know it works for me.
That's fine. Yeah, Like like like Jamaica's people are outside
of Brooklyn. Don't know what a Jamaica is. When you
call somebody like that guy's in Jamaica, it's like or
an asshole. Yeah, that guy's a real lush mcgeggy. That's

(34:32):
like a Yiddish thing like that guy's a shmcgeggy. But
you can make up any sounds and you know what
it means. That's what you got, guys. That guy's That
guy's a plutz frick. You know, it doesn't make any sense,
feel like you know what it means. You know. So
Stu not is like a couple of stun emails at
the Brooken Boys Podcast at gmail dot com. We have
like three minutes before he calls. Yeah all right, so
let me go on. Let's see if I can do

(34:54):
two rants before he calls, because I have now a
rant file on my phone. Um, okay, two things that
really kind of getting to me. If it's a certain
day of the week or a holiday a month, like
it's uh Secretary's Day, or it's Police and Firefighter Day,

(35:15):
or it's chocolate cake Day, we know that it's a
thousand other days, all right, we can't get to them all,
but we get a lot of text messages. It's also
people with with red hair down to their shoulders day.
We can't get to all them. It's you know, there's nobody,
there's no one that there was no police when they
know when they made these holidays, it was just thrown together.

(35:37):
Nobody said oh, you can't have this day because it's
already this right. So as a results, ten days when
you look it up National calendar Day, whatever, it's not real,
so don't Okay, that's first. With the website National Calendar
day dot com, you can go on any day of
the year National calendars every day. It's like seventeen days.
But here's my here's my real problem. And I'm I

(35:58):
want to apologize, but it bothers me. Not every job
needs to be acknowledged for what it is. Sometimes you
just have a job and it's a job. Well, I'm
not going to single out any occupations. But we get
texts like this all the time. I'm making this this
part up. We'll say, hey, you know what, it's police
and firefighter and E. M. S Day or its teacher

(36:20):
day or whatever, and someone will text in hey, don't
forget to mention sixteen year old kid who works on
the fries at McDonald's day. They work hard to every
job works hard, right, but not everyone's a hero that
you know what I mean? People running the buildings are heroes.
Police officers are heroes. That doesn't mean every police officer,

(36:41):
but in general, police officers heroes. That doesn't mean that
because you work for the company that delivers packages that
people should say, oh, well, we work hard to Nobody
says you don't work hard. We're just talking about this
thing in this instance. Well specific well, you know, don't
forget about people who uh stack the tomatoes at the

(37:02):
supermarket day. I'm sorry, at some point you have to
draw line, so you can't not every job is. Everybody
works hard, But just because you're the mail room guy,
I can't. We can't as a show. As a society,
I thank everybody works hard. Everybody should be rewarded by
the people they know and their bosses and everything. But

(37:22):
it's not up to you. Just can't go what about
my job? What else happens when we give money to charity?
It happens all the time you give them money. What
about this you're spending money there, what about we get it.
There are a lot of the charity and a lot
of charities we give to off air that we can't
get to. But there's that whole what about me thing

(37:44):
that's sort of it's sort of it bothers me. So
that's my rant that that's my You didn't play the music,
but that's my rant. No, it's just like, no, I'm
trying not to piss anybody off. But at some point,
society one point, there are there are jobs that are
not that are just you know, unbelievable jobs. You don't know.

(38:05):
I could never be certain jobs. I could never be
a firefighter. I don't have the strength, I don't have
the endurance, I don't have the bravery to do it.
And and so they those are people you go, hey,
it's firefighter's day. But if if it's teacher's day and
you're rewarding teachers who are very it can't be what
about office assistant day? And and and at some point

(38:26):
you get draw the line. But if you're an office assistant,
you're awesome. You're the backbone of your car. It's absolutely important.
But don't be mad at thiss if we forget that's
okay that I now, I just got lost in your
rant because I agree with you, and I'm not gonna
ran back. But it's more that rant was a little no.
But here's my rant because this pissed me off. It
always pisses me off. You're gonna get ready with the music.

(38:49):
I freaking hate hate when people talk to you and
they'll say a whole sentence and you don't hear them,
and you say, I'm sorry, what just and they repeat
the last word? Only that happened. Yes, I was at
the hospital with my shut up tick. I was at
the hospital my mother. She's fine, but the nurse wanted

(39:12):
something for me. She said, oh, listen, no, no, I
said what underwear. I'm so I didn't hear you underwear?
So I said, I don't know what you're saying. I
need the whole sentence, and she went, oh, I need
you to get the bag of clothing from the other
room where your mother's underwear is. I need her underwear.
So when someone doesn't hear you, you need thank you

(39:36):
to say the whole sentence. Again, I didn't say, what
was the last word you said? I said, I didn't
hear you, So what part of that translates to I
heard everything but the last word, or I only need
you to repeat the last word and I'll somehow work backwards. No,
try what saying? Tr Try? What about try? Okay? That

(39:58):
is my rant today. It's one, doesn't freaking hear you
repeat the whole goddamn set? This underwear? What about underwear?
She's like, underwear? Is this the ship that keeps you
up at night? I got more? Do you really? Yeah?
I got it? All right. I will talk to you

(40:18):
about my time at the outlet stores on episode thirteen,
because that's a scam. Outlet stores are a scam. I'll
explain why he's about to embark on his new tour
starting in January, of him with stops all around the
world or in North America, because Canada and well, you know,
the United States, all around the world, US and Canada, right,

(40:40):
way to go, all around North all around North America
except me typical Americans like everywhere New York, and I
consider myself the center of the universe here in America, right.
I mean, I'm bad that I do that. But I
don't think his comedy translates overseas yet, but it might someday.
It's this day Hungry Tour. We want to give a
warm welcome right now to comedian Sebastian Maniscalcos. Yes, you know,

(41:05):
it's the day I do a radio tour. My neighbors
are sawing down their house. It's like it couldn't have
been worse timing for a comic. That's great, that's material.
You can't complain about that. I know, I know, Listen.
I I remodeled my house for the last two years,
so I had a lot of dust. So now I

(41:26):
guess they're getting me back. But you don't want to
go on stage and say, let me tell you about
my perfect neighbors. They don't make any noise, they're great,
uh any stories, Yeah, I guess. I guess this is
definitely well. Listen, I got I got one neighbor who
saw down the house, and I just found out the
next door neighbor. It's it's it's like a senior citizen home.
They're running out. It's like for people who are dying

(41:47):
next door. And it's like in Los Angeles. I don't
know how it is on the East Coast, but in
that way, you don't know your neighbors out here. There's
no borrowing sugar if if you run out, you gotta
run to the store and and come back. So now
in New York, if old people die, there's somebody waiting
to get the apartment. You know. Yeah, they checked the

(42:07):
obituaries in New York when someone dies and like, oh
two bedroom, God, she died young, and you're there the
next minute. Wow. No, So we're talking. We're talking to
Sebastian Mena Scalco, one of the top comedians in the country.
And by the way, Sebastian, I'm David Brodie and that's
Scary Jones. Uh, Scary has been talking about you for
about a year and a half now non stop. Oh,
I would see Sebastian man Skucko would seem se s

(42:29):
did you see stuff on YouTube? Did you see? It's
non stop? So I get an email last week that says,
would you like to spend a few minutes talking to
Sebastian Mena Skullo? I said, how can I not? So
I I call Scary. I said, hey, we have an opportunity,
and I thought, I think the phone dropped out of
his hand. He he's like a kid in a candy store.
So so thank you. You're you're talking to some fans.
And by the way, six months ago, we had an

(42:49):
opportunity to interview you and somebody passed on you, and
I said, why would you do that. I appreciate that.
I'm gonna I'm just gonna preface it's not going to
be that exciting. That's okay, come on, that's okay. We
speaking to see him live. The reason you're calling is
is you're you're launching to Stay Hungry tour, which, by
the way, is the name of my favorite Twisted Sister album,

(43:10):
so that I just saw that, you know, I named
it the book Stay Hungry. I named the tour Stay Hungry.
And then somebody sent Twisted Sister with a Bone eating
a Bone on his album. I'm like, oh my god,
I forgot that. They even that was the huge album.
There's a song Stay Hungry that was that We're not
gonna take an album. But it's okay. You didn't know.
I'm sure they won't see you twice. Sebastian. I gotta

(43:32):
tell you, I grew up in an Italian household, and
your life mirrors my life from my my and we're
probably about the same age. I'm like, yeah, he's much
better looking. I'm like this is this guy for real.
I'm like, was this guy like a fly on the
wall in my house? He's you gotta be a long
lost cousin of mine, because you know, and and a

(43:53):
lot of my friends say that. And again, this is
a lot of the Northeast people. I'm talking about people
from Long Island and New Jersey. And I first caught
you at the Borghanta for people like that. So so
tell me about a little bit about how you got
into this, because just for people that might not know.
So basically how it worked was growing up, I was
never really the class clown. I was very quiet, shy

(44:15):
kid and always observed from the back of the class. Also,
I looked at the class clown and I told myself,
sit down, You're not funny. So I would I would.
I would develop my comedy shops when I would come
home and kind of hold court at the at the
kitchen table. I have a father who has a big personality,
a sister and a mother who are very witty as well,

(44:36):
So that was kind of like my first stage. And
I went to college, graduated, and at twenty four years old,
I moved out to Los Angeles and and just kind
of hit the ground running and getting up on stage
and doing open mic nights. Anywhere that they had comedy,
I was there and doing it two or three or
four times a night, just to get my feet wet
with it. Because this is something that you have to

(44:56):
work at and practice at, and it doesn't happen overnight.
So a ninth when I moved out here, it took
me a good seven years to develop the point of
view and the very the very thing I do on
stage with a lot of animation and facial expressions. But
what really caught people's attention is what you just mentioned
was that family. As soon as I started talking about

(45:17):
my father and my upbringing and how my father was
an immigrant and it was always on my back and
telling me to work hard and and stuffing that went
on in the house that I thought. I thought I
grew up in a normal family, you know, I thought,
this is a normal family. And then and then I
started talking about my family experiences, and then other people
started to kind of relate. And you don't have to

(45:37):
be Italian to get it. You to come from a Greek, Spanish,
Middle Eastern family, It's it's all pretty much the same.
And and uh, and I get that a lot where
you will fly on the wall. Are you a cousin
of mine? It seems like you grew up with My
father is the same, My uncle's the same as your father.
So that's where it started to resonate with a lot
of people, and they started bringing their friends, their family.

(45:58):
I would like go to Gotham Comedy Club in the
whole neighborhood would come out to see me. So uh yeah,
it's it's kind of snowballed into what it's become today
and we're doing larger venues and I'm really a patient
appreciative of the people that come out of the show,
because listen, man, I know how hard it is. You've
got a family, you've got kids, You've gotta show babysitter,
and then you gotta go for dinner and buy a

(46:19):
drink and then and then if company comes, you gotta
get the nimans out Sanca. Yeah, Hey, you know what
that I love that long you're doing. Get that cake,
that's the company you have, the crappy muffins. Yeah, so
we all grew up. Listen, I'm not Italian, I'm from
I'm the same Italian neighborhood's scarce from benson Hurst, Brooklyn.

(46:41):
I grew up Italian and me I'm Jewish, and so
your a bit about pestover food. Yeah, Jews that if
I if I might be correct in saying this. We
have breakfast down, but we don't know about the rest
of the day. You know, that's your joke. By the way,
I don't want to make it's like I'm stealing it.
But that's you nailed it. We don't. We do bagels.
We have nothing else worth a damn except matzipo soup

(47:02):
one week a month. I totally agree. My wife is
Jewish and when we go over to pass over the
food spanks, I gotta bring a lunch. It's it's so bad.
But I go up with Jewish too. I mean, my
best friends Jewish and my wife's Jewish, so I'm very
familiar with the Jewish. Yeah, well you seem to when
you talk about it, and you talk about how the
past out pamphlets and fast over. One of the things

(47:24):
I love about your stand up that's so different than
everybody else's. Besides, it's observational, it's brilliant, it's relatable, it's
and you mentioned it a couple of minutes ago. It's
so physical, your facial expressions, your next snapping, your body contortioning,
You paint a picture of the shock that is sort
of like a drumbeat to every drum, to every joke.

(47:46):
It accents everything. But I'm saying that's why I'm saying,
you have to go see Sebastian live. You can't. You
can't just hear like an audio clip and get the
full Sebastian man Scalco. You have to. How did you
develop that? I mean, I know where humor comes from,
but how did you decide to be such a physical
you're practically dancing on stage? How did that come about?

(48:06):
I grew up watching a three company and I was
a huge fan of John Ritter. And John Ritter, if
you watch him, he was very physical in his comedy
and his facial expressions kind of set it all. Also
Johnny Carson, I was, although not really a physical comedian,
I would give you a look and you would kind
of know what he was thinking just by by giving
a look. So what happened with me is that kind

(48:28):
of happened over time and organically I started becoming a
lot more physical on stage and the facial expressions to
a company, the jokes, and I found that people really
enjoyed kind of watching me act out the story rather
than me just telling the story. So uh yeah, I
I really enjoy doing it. I think sometimes it takes

(48:49):
the crowd um takes them off guard when I do
like a physical movement that they're not really expecting. So
for me, it's it's it's all part of what I
do up there. But that didn't happen when I first
started in comedy. I was I was, I was scared straight.
I would sit up there and and tell a story
behind the microphone and that was it. But that developed
over time. And for your fans that that are hearing

(49:10):
this right now that actually saw you on your last
tour and and you know a lot of people say,
well I saw that comedian once. I don't need to
see him again. Let's just say say one thing, the
why would you do that tour? Hilarious? But to stay
hungry tour, you got these these dates coming up. What
could people expect And we're gonna talk about tickets tickets
on sale tomorrow, by the way, and we'll get into
that in a second, but why exactly, you know, what

(49:33):
can people expect on this tour? As opposed to last tour.
What kinds of new material you come? Yeah, so you
get this a lot like, hey, I saw you at
the Forgotta and then they're gonna come back and is
at the same show as at new material? So uh,
my answer to that is, as I lived my life,
I'm always um reaping material from my life experiences. I'm

(49:54):
a new father. I got a six month year old baby,
so thank you, thank you. So you're gonna start hearing
my a real about me being in situations that I've
never been before, like going to birthday parties with kids
and interacting with parents rather than you know, our single friends.
So as my life has new experiences, my act has

(50:16):
those same experiences, and then it kind of mirrors each other.
But then there's also the newer material that people really
love and and maybe I'll add a tweak here in
a tweek there. It's kidding that balance of old and new.
And I'm working towards this radio City music called Date April.
By the way, I saw on Instagram you announced a

(50:36):
second date. We're on a third, a third date, another one,
another one. That's amazing. Yeah, now that the New York
market for me has been my my bread and butter.
And like you guys said, you know you're growing up
in Brooklyn. People are really resonating towards what I'm saying.
So the Radio City, I'm I'm gonna do. I'm filming

(50:57):
a new special there for for showtime in April one.
It's two shows and we're filming both of them. So,
uh yeah, you're you're gonna see new material. It depends
when you saw me last though. You know, some people go,
we saw you, Uh you know Bananas Comedy Club. Is
it gonna be the same thing. I don't well, I
don't know when the hell I was that Bananas Comedy So,

(51:20):
uh yeah, it's always it's always you're gonna always gonna
see that something new from me. I'm not a comedian
who comes out there and does the same act verbatim. Okay,
And I need you to be honest about something. When
when a successful sitcom has been on the air for
about five, six, seven years, at some point, whether it's
Mad about You or Modern Family whatever, they add a baby.
Somebody has a baby to add new plotlines. And I
want you to be honest, did you have a baby

(51:41):
so you can get new material? Okay? Exactly wanted to, Honey,
I need some new material lay down, so you tour.
It begins in Montreal January five. You're gonna be all
over the place. I see you. Wow, You're gonna be
in Rochester, Syracuse, um where Providence d C. All the
information is at Sebastian Live dot com and tickets go

(52:03):
on sale for this tomorrow and where we buy these
tickets at Sebastian Live. Yeah, you can get him at
Sebastian Live at Ticketmaster um. Uh yeah, Sebastian Live. The website,
I have a whole page there. It's a splash page.
You could go click on the link. Three nights by
the way at Radio City Music Hall, starting on a Sebastian.

(52:26):
The Canadians get you. I mean they seem so nice
and polite. Did they get you? You feel like they're yeah, yeah,
you know Montreal and Toronto, huge Italian population up there,
so so big that in Toronto we moved into the arena.
Uh So we're gonna be doing an arena show in
Toronto for the for the people there. And it's my
first arena show and I'm not a big guy on

(52:48):
having comedy in a basketball hockey arena. But you know,
my act is so physical. I mean, last time I
was in New York at that seven Beacon shows and
I was you know, I was exhausted. You just can't
give the type of performance that you want to give
when you put so many shows in a row. So
in Toronto, we're just going into the arena and they're
gonna knock it out for eighteen thousand people. So amazing. Yeah,

(53:12):
it's uh, it's been great. And the tickets, like I said, available,
Sebestian Live dot com. Sebastian Comedy is my handle on Instagram, Facebook,
and Twitter, where I try to engage with the fans
as much as I possibly can. I I don't like
to be a comedian who alienates his fans. And if
they have questions right now, the biggest question is why
are they tickets so much money? It's it's not that

(53:32):
there's so much money. It's sometimes what happens, and I've
addressed this in specials that you know that the scalper's
gotta gobble them up and they start selling them and
people think that like I'm I'm I'm selling tickets for
five six hundred bucks. It's not the case. It's just
supplying the men, I Sebestial. We have one last question
for you, and we let you go. I need you
to settle an argument if you can. You've been involved
in a Twitter war the last couple of days that

(53:54):
you've been included on because we mentioned you're gonna be
here now. If a guy tells you he owes you
a stake dinner, he you do a favor of him
and he says, I will buy you an expensive steak dinner. Right,
that guy takes you to steak dinner. But because you're
sort of famous on the radio, the guy who runs
the place buys you dinner and says I'll pick up
the check. Does that guy still owe you at dinner?
Thank you, son of a bit. Thank you, Sebastian. I

(54:16):
love you are a bad settled settled Sebastian. This motherfucker.
I love you, Sebastian. I love you man. You are
awesome again. Sebastian Live dot Com is the place, and
one other thing. Please wave to us at Radio City
and April will be there by the way on your
way out here. I see this one note, Jerry Seinfeld says,
my favorite comedian. How does that make you feel? It's great?

(54:37):
I mean watching Jerry Sienceel growing up in this show.
And then next thing you know, I'm meeting Jerry science
All at a Gotham comedy club three years ago. He
asked me to be on Comedians and Cars getting coffee,
and uh, it's surreal for me. I was like my
Johnny Carson moment, like I got called over to the college.
But now it's a car and it's great. Jerry has
been a great friend to me. And uh, picking his

(54:59):
brain what to do as a stand up And I
did a TV show with Tony Dan's the last year
that unfortunately they get picked up. So uh, to have
a guy like that in your corner and pick his brain.
And basically a guy that has been through every every
situation as a comedians right, and a guy who does
a stand up routine nothing like you. You couldn't be
more different, yet he appreciates your style. That's wonderful. Nice

(55:23):
in Chicago, native Los Angeles living there now, but I
feel like you're from my hometown of Brooklyn because you
can relate. Uh, go see him on the Stay Hungry
tour if you can't, starting in January. Sebastian Maniscalco Sebastian
live dot com. Thank you so much, thanks for having
me on the show. Guys, and I'll see and uh April,
there you go. Thank you, sir. He's he's funny on

(55:45):
the fall out of comics. They're not funny on the phone.
He was just funny. And he didn't seem to mind
that I quoted him like I didn't want him to
think I was stealing. I'm a fan. Yeah I am too.
If you if you haven't seen him, google him, get
get those free clips. And more importantly, he took my side.
I can't believe. I can't believe it either. I thought
for sure he was gonna go because your I don't care.

(56:05):
You said it, we have it on tape. I did not, Yes,
you did, he said. He said, oh you still on
my dinner? Okay? And you said you to buy. But
guess what I get to define? What? Did you know?
What that means? Another stake? Hello Susie, sir Lloyd, are
