00:00:09Today's a big day, we've done these showcases, we did Chicago, we did New York, we did L.A., Tom
00:00:14was there in L.A.
00:00:16Tom Brady?
00:00:17Yeah.
00:00:17Tom Brady came here.
00:00:18Famous comedian Tom Brady.
00:00:19Famous, yes.
00:00:21He's so fancy.
00:00:22He's really funny.
00:00:23He's hysterical.
00:00:24Yeah, always.
00:00:24She really can do it.
00:00:25She just knows how to piss me off.
00:00:26He can do that whole thing again.
00:00:28He has to walk in again.
00:00:29Let's just go from our intro.
00:00:31Yeah.
00:00:37After showcases in New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago, I found 18 of the funniest comics
00:00:43and invited them all to L.A. With a career-changing Netflix special on the line, only 10 will move
00:00:49on.
00:00:50It's time for callbacks.
00:00:53And we're doing it right here at the Comedy Store in Los Angeles.
00:00:56This is the room where Richard Pryor found his best material, where David Letterman, Whoopi
00:01:01Goldberg, and Robin Williams became legends.
00:01:04And with me is a legend in her own right, my good friend, Chelsea Hamlin.
00:01:08Look at this.
00:01:09Color-coordinated.
00:01:10Look at us.
00:01:11I don't have anything.
00:01:11I just found it.
00:01:12Why are you talking like Lou Rawls?
00:01:14Chelsea has done pretty much everything that you can do in this business.
00:01:17Sold out arenas.
00:01:18Written best-selling books.
00:01:20Her late night show kick-started the careers of so many, myself included.
00:01:24Mrs. V, I'm glad you're doing it.
00:01:26I'm excited to see some stand-up.
00:01:27I'm excited to watch people deliver their material in front of all of us.
00:01:31You're ready.
00:01:32Okay, I'm ready.
00:01:33So we can go.
00:01:34Okay.
00:01:34Let's just go.
00:01:35Are you aware of who judges me here?
00:01:38Judges?
00:01:39No, I don't know who they are.
00:01:41Who are they?
00:01:43Oh!
00:01:44Okay.
00:01:46Fuck.
00:01:47Chelsea.
00:01:48Fuck!
00:01:48Are you serious?
00:01:49I'm serious.
00:01:51Okay.
00:01:52I love Chelsea.
00:01:54Oh, my God.
00:01:55Are you serious?
00:01:57And I'm just gonna talk about my pussy.
00:01:59Great.
00:02:01Hey, guys.
00:02:02Hello.
00:02:04Look at all these beautiful faces.
00:02:07Hi.
00:02:09Welcome back.
00:02:11So, Chelsea, it's a room full of fantastic, funny comedians.
00:02:15Beautiful crowd.
00:02:16Look at this.
00:02:16It's beautiful.
00:02:17This is so beautiful.
00:02:18The energy in here is great.
00:02:19Colorful.
00:02:20I'm fucking down.
00:02:21Okay.
00:02:22I'm down.
00:02:22Down for what?
00:02:23You know what.
00:02:24Okay, stop.
00:02:25That's enough.
00:02:27That's enough.
00:02:27All right.
00:02:28These are all the comedians that have made it to this stage.
00:02:3018 comics in total.
00:02:32Only 10 will go on to the next stage.
00:02:35This is a pep talk.
00:02:36We're here to support you.
00:02:37Yeah.
00:02:37We want you to succeed.
00:02:39If something doesn't go well, fucking recover.
00:02:41Okay.
00:02:42You know?
00:02:42Okay.
00:02:43Recovery is as important as the performance.
00:02:45It's exciting for me because I already know what you guys are capable of, right?
00:02:48So, at this point, I get to see what else you have in your bag.
00:02:51Who gets better or who gets worse?
00:02:53Well, no one's gonna get worse.
00:02:54I mean, you don't know where I was going.
00:02:55No, it gets worse as a competition goes on.
00:02:57I had a fucking amazing thing where I was going after that and you didn't put...
00:03:00Well, land the fucking plane there.
00:03:01Well, now I gotta fly a new plane to make the goddamn point.
00:03:04Would you fuck that flight up, Chelsea?
00:03:06Well, luckily you have two planes.
00:03:07Okay, well...
00:03:08So that shouldn't be a problem.
00:03:11My legends that were with me previously are here.
00:03:14Chelsea is not the only one.
00:03:16We got Keegan-Michael Key from New York and Kumail Nanjiani from Chicago.
00:03:20So I'm getting a variety of opinions and eyeballs from faces that I respect, admire,
00:03:25and more importantly, that love this craft of comedy.
00:03:27Right now, you know what the task at hand is.
00:03:29Ultimately, we're picking what we would consider to be the comics of the future.
00:03:33That's a big deal.
00:03:35That's a big deal.
00:03:36So take a moment.
00:03:37Look at the list.
00:03:38See where you fall on the show.
00:03:39Get your mind right, but then go out there and do what you do.
00:03:42Guys, good luck.
00:03:43Have a good time.
00:03:44Make sure you have fun.
00:03:44Okay?
00:03:45Yeah, have fun, you guys.
00:03:46Tell them about the bracelet.
00:03:48That you're gonna give away the bracelet for the second one.
00:03:50Let's go.
00:03:50Let's go.
00:03:51All right.
00:03:52We're getting it for you.
00:03:53I got it.
00:03:54Yell out who's first.
00:03:55Who first?
00:03:56Who first?
00:03:58Steve Fury, baby.
00:04:00Oh, yeah.
00:04:01Nah.
00:04:01I knew it.
00:04:02You got it.
00:04:03That's crazy.
00:04:05You got it.
00:04:05It's a big moment.
00:04:06Callbacks are a whole other animal.
00:04:08The stakes are much higher.
00:04:09Hi, guys.
00:04:10They're in a legendary club in front of multiple judges, and it's a much bigger crowd.
00:04:15This is a pressure moment.
00:04:17We'll see who stands up in the pressure and who doesn't.
00:04:20Thank you for this opportunity.
00:04:22These are people that could get a Netflix special and do well.
00:04:24What did you say?
00:04:24I just thanked him for the opportunity to be here.
00:04:27What's going on?
00:04:29There's ladders.
00:04:30There's four ladders out there.
00:04:32You want to adapt?
00:04:34Okay.
00:04:35Oh, wow.
00:04:36I'm nervous, but my favorite thing about comedy is probably the camaraderie between all the comics.
00:04:42And I think that's, like, special about comics is, like, we know how hard it is to do this.
00:04:46You bond over just going through the trials and tribulations.
00:04:50It's us versus the audience.
00:04:52When you try and make people laugh, that means at some point you've failed.
00:04:55And that is what unites us all.
00:04:58It keeps us all humble.
00:04:5930-second warning for Steve.
00:05:02We're at the fucking city.
00:05:03I'm nervous.
00:05:04First time in this competition, I've been very nervous.
00:05:06I am damp to the touch.
00:05:07Some would say moist.
00:05:09Going first is hard.
00:05:10Okay, Steve, time to go to stage.
00:05:14In the first round, I was lucky enough to get selected right after my set.
00:05:18That doesn't really do much for this next round, because that one's done.
00:05:22Whatever happened then is in the past, and it means nothing.
00:05:24This next one, I'm going against better comics from all over the country,
00:05:28so I have to get my head in and forget whatever happened in the past
00:05:31and focus on what's happening next.
00:05:32I have a lot more to show everybody.
00:05:34The more I show, I think the more people will like me.
00:05:39Steve Fury!
00:05:46What up?
00:05:48Yes!
00:05:49My name is Steve Fury.
00:05:50Happy to be here.
00:05:51Me and my fiancée just moved.
00:05:53Fifth floor.
00:05:55Top floor.
00:05:56Just got ants.
00:05:57I don't know how they did it.
00:06:00Pretty impressive for an ant to go five human stories.
00:06:05I have trouble climbing those stairs.
00:06:07You tell me a fucking ant just did that?
00:06:10So I did the math.
00:06:11For an ant to climb five human stories would be the equivalent of a human climbing Mount Kilimanjaro.
00:06:18Could you imagine being at the base of Mount Kilimanjaro looking up and being like,
00:06:25I think there's a cookie up there?
00:06:28It's like the whole town, everybody I've ever met in my life.
00:06:32Single file line!
00:06:35It's an ant joke.
00:06:36Some of you guys will get that later.
00:06:37Don't worry about it.
00:06:38I am happily getting engaged.
00:06:40Had to go ring shopping recently.
00:06:42And I don't know if you guys know this, but there's two types of diamonds now that are almost exactly
00:06:45the same.
00:06:46They have a mind and they have a lab-grown diamond.
00:06:49For all intents and purposes, it's the same fucking thing.
00:06:52Chemically, optically, tinsel strength, diamond checker, Mohs.
00:06:55I didn't know that.
00:06:56So when I go in there, Jewel goes, first off, I'm going to show you this right here.
00:06:58He goes, this is a lab-grown diamond.
00:07:00He goes, your fiancé does not want this.
00:07:05He goes, this is for poor people.
00:07:08Then he said it was almost $6,000.
00:07:11I was like, goddamn.
00:07:12I didn't know I was poorer than poor people.
00:07:14That's crazy.
00:07:16Do you have anything for a peasant or a serf?
00:07:21I'm happy.
00:07:22I'm happy.
00:07:22I found the love of my life, man.
00:07:24I learned a lot when I was single.
00:07:25I want to share it with you guys.
00:07:26I learned a lot when I was single.
00:07:27I learned that you can tell how good a girl will be at sex by how dirty the inside of
00:07:34her car is.
00:07:36Like, if she's got a lot of old Starbucks cups and McDonald's wrappers,
00:07:40she's going to blow your fucking mind.
00:07:42That's what I learned.
00:07:43That's what my research tells me.
00:07:47That's clean as fuck.
00:07:48Said that joke six months ago in Florida, a woman stood up and goes,
00:07:51Will I ride the bus?
00:08:00Just asked her to marry me.
00:08:01Went ring shopping a couple weeks ago.
00:08:02Can't wait to marry her.
00:08:04My name is Steve Huey.
00:08:05Thank you very much.
00:08:10I think that guy's going to go through it.
00:08:12He's fun as fuck.
00:08:13He's incredible.
00:08:14Steve was really great.
00:08:15He's, like, making analogies and metaphors.
00:08:17The material was really good.
00:08:19Really good.
00:08:19Very polished.
00:08:20Also, the confidence matters.
00:08:22The confidence matters.
00:08:23He was so comfortable.
00:08:24He was really comfortable.
00:08:27I'm confident in my shit.
00:08:28I just want to do this shit.
00:08:29You just got to take a deep breath.
00:08:31Tell yourself everything's okay.
00:08:32Me and Reg go way back.
00:08:34That's my guy.
00:08:35Reg's friendship means so much to me.
00:08:38Babies, I don't even need to do what you know.
00:08:40Just do this shit, all right?
00:08:40I love you.
00:08:41I was doing stand-up maybe two or three years,
00:08:43and she told me she wanted to do stand-up,
00:08:44and I helped her get into stand-up.
00:08:45And, like, nine years later, Eva a body bag.
00:08:48I'm so proud of her.
00:08:49Eva!
00:08:50Evan!
00:08:53Come on, Eva.
00:08:53Yes, Eva!
00:08:54I'm really hoping me and Reg move on.
00:08:56I know there could only be one winner,
00:08:58and I'm really hoping it's one of us.
00:08:59What's going on?
00:09:02It's a good-looking crowd.
00:09:04Okay, y'all disagree.
00:09:06Fuck it.
00:09:07Um...
00:09:07Like, flattery doesn't work on us, bitch.
00:09:09Get to the jokes.
00:09:10Heard you.
00:09:11Um, I'm, like, excited about aliens being here.
00:09:14I really am.
00:09:15I am.
00:09:16Yeah.
00:09:16I feel like Earth needs new men.
00:09:21Yeah, yeah.
00:09:22We need new options in this motherfucker.
00:09:23We need...
00:09:25Yeah, right?
00:09:25I would definitely fuck with an alien.
00:09:29I'm trying to see what these Mars niggas are talking about.
00:09:30You know what I mean?
00:09:32What these getting money Jupiter niggas are saying.
00:09:34You know what I mean?
00:09:36Real shit.
00:09:37I know it sounds crazy,
00:09:38but let him be 6'4 with no kids.
00:09:43If he's 6'4 with no kids,
00:09:45I'm sucking both of his dicks.
00:09:49Right?
00:09:49He gotta have at least two.
00:09:50Don't come over here with this one dick.
00:09:51We been there, done that.
00:09:53If you gonna invade the planet,
00:09:54let me see some shit I ain't never seen before.
00:09:56You know what I mean?
00:09:57Real shit.
00:09:58So I met this guy.
00:09:59He was a trans man.
00:10:00He didn't put that on his page that I didn't know,
00:10:02but when I showed up to the restaurant,
00:10:03he disclosed that to me.
00:10:04And I appreciated him letting me know, right?
00:10:07I could tell he was nervous,
00:10:09and he, you know, scared that I was gonna react a certain way,
00:10:11and I told him, I said,
00:10:11you gotta relax, okay?
00:10:12I am too poor to have a phobia.
00:10:16Why?
00:10:18I said, as long as you identify as a man who's paying this check...
00:10:29...at the end of this meal,
00:10:30because, bitch, I showed up ashy and hungry.
00:10:32I was...
00:10:35The date went very well.
00:10:36The conversation was good.
00:10:38Uh, the date went south when his card declined,
00:10:41when the bill came.
00:10:42Yeah, his card declined.
00:10:43And I was, I was concerned.
00:10:47And he said, don't worry.
00:10:49One of my six roommates is gonna send me some money.
00:10:52I said, nigga, where you live at, jail?
00:10:56Why you got so many roommates?
00:10:59So, long story short, he pays the bill,
00:11:01and he asked me out again.
00:11:01He said, Eva, I had a great time.
00:11:03Can I take you out again?
00:11:04I said, nah, I'm good.
00:11:07And he got offended.
00:11:08He was like, I thought we had a great time.
00:11:09Don't tell me you're transphobic.
00:11:12I said, no, baby, I don't date the poor.
00:11:17I'm poor.
00:11:17What the fuck we gonna do together?
00:11:18Wish upon a star, nigga?
00:11:19I need...
00:11:21I need help.
00:11:24I said, why didn't you plan better?
00:11:26Why didn't you transition into a rich man?
00:11:33Right?
00:11:35So your trans-actions can go through.
00:11:41Yeah.
00:11:44Thank you, my name is Eva.
00:11:45Y'all have a good night.
00:11:46Yeah.
00:11:48I like her energy a lot.
00:11:50I like her.
00:11:51Confident, stand and deliver.
00:11:53Yeah.
00:11:53Not high energy, not pushing it,
00:11:55making you come to her.
00:11:57Super confident.
00:11:57When you just hear the whole trans bit and the check,
00:11:59it makes you go think which came first,
00:12:01like the actual, you know what I mean?
00:12:03Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:12:03Which joke set up that whole story?
00:12:05Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:12:05Action first, and then all of the...
00:12:07And then she backed into the rest of the stuff.
00:12:09Yeah.
00:12:09I forgot a tag on my trans bit, my nigga.
00:12:13I'm sick.
00:12:14You still went crazy.
00:12:15You still did very well.
00:12:16I'm so sick.
00:12:16I'm so sick.
00:12:17You did very well.
00:12:18I am terrified right now.
00:12:20Where the fuck I go?
00:12:20Where's the exit?
00:12:21I can just leave?
00:12:22Yep.
00:12:25I am so tight.
00:12:29I forgot a tag in my last, my closing bit,
00:12:32and I'm just very disappointed in myself.
00:12:37There's good, better, and best.
00:12:39Tags help you elevate the joke.
00:12:42Just one little detail, but to me, it's like,
00:12:44it's a big deal.
00:12:45Because I worked very hard to be here.
00:12:49I just hope that I still make it through.
00:12:51I don't know.
00:12:56I'm not going off for a good hour and some change.
00:12:59Yeah.
00:12:59What's five times 12?
00:13:00Because that's about as long as it's going to take.
00:13:0160.
00:13:02That was good math.
00:13:04I was supposed to be a mathematician.
00:13:06You were supposed to be a mathematician?
00:13:08I was in multivariable calculus.
00:13:10Wow.
00:13:10Those are some words.
00:13:12Hey, hey.
00:13:12I know they mean something.
00:13:14I think the biggest difference between the audition round
00:13:17and this callback round is that it's the cream of the crop.
00:13:20Daniel, time to go to stage.
00:13:22Hi.
00:13:24You know, I want to, I feel like, as agents, managers,
00:13:28I don't have any representation.
00:13:29So moving in, it's like, okay, I'm excited to prove myself,
00:13:33to say, no, I belong.
00:13:35How are we doing? We good?
00:13:39We good.
00:13:40Okay.
00:13:41I'm trying to learn how to date.
00:13:42Biggest thing I learned with dating, I learned I can't hit on alcoholic women anymore.
00:13:47I can't do it.
00:13:48Nah.
00:13:49Y'all laughing.
00:13:49I had one girl, she almost drank me into poverty.
00:13:52This bitch.
00:13:54No, for real.
00:13:55We were at the bar.
00:13:56She was like, hey, Dan, another round.
00:13:57I was like, bitch, I work at Target.
00:14:01I make $15 an hour.
00:14:04Whole date, I was on my phone, she's like, what are you texting other women?
00:14:07I'm like, no, I'm texting Bank of America right now.
00:14:11I'm like, y'all don't see any suspicious activity?
00:14:19Y'all just gonna let me do this shit?
00:14:23Cause when you make hourly, you view money you spend in terms of hours of your life.
00:14:29So every drink she ordered, I was like, fuck, I'm gonna have to work Saturday.
00:14:37Cause this thing, I'm a lightweight.
00:14:39So I'm sipping on my one drink and she's got three drinks stacked up.
00:14:43So women are looking at me like, oh, he's trying to take advantage of her.
00:14:46I'm like, no, she's taking advantage of me.
00:14:49This bitch drank my whole shift.
00:14:52I'm sipping on my overtime right now.
00:14:57All right.
00:14:58I like this crowd, y'all.
00:15:00Nah, I like this crowd.
00:15:01Y'all an honest crowd.
00:15:02Y'all an honest crowd.
00:15:03Y'all laugh at what you wanna laugh at.
00:15:04And what you don't, y'all let it be known, y'all.
00:15:08This is the type of crowd that makes comedians drive home with no music, y'all.
00:15:16You be driving back like, you know what, Target ain't that bad.
00:15:18It ain't.
00:15:20$15 in there?
00:15:22I can make it work.
00:15:24Hey, y'all have an amazing audience.
00:15:25My name's Dan Delano.
00:15:26I appreciate y'all.
00:15:29He was really, really strong.
00:15:30He's very good at rolling with it and then going back into the material.
00:15:34That was a very strong set.
00:15:35How do you feel about comics that laugh at their own jokes?
00:15:38You think it's cheating?
00:15:38No, I don't think it's cheating.
00:15:39I think it's off-putting.
00:15:41Like, it's not...
00:15:42Why are you laughing at your own jokes?
00:15:43You know what you're gonna say.
00:15:44You've heard this.
00:15:44You've heard this.
00:15:45You know what you're gonna say.
00:15:45It's not sincere.
00:15:46We're seeing a calculated forced break.
00:15:50I think it's inspiring to see comics do well.
00:15:54Here's a good example.
00:15:56Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock, and myself, right?
00:15:58Me and Chris were saying, like, we're working on the material.
00:16:00So I was like, Chris, let's go to the city.
00:16:02I go up.
00:16:03Chris goes up.
00:16:04We're fucking excited.
00:16:05We're in the back sharing notes.
00:16:07Dave comes into the cellar.
00:16:08Dave does a spot.
00:16:09Without any hesitation, me and Chris looked at each other.
00:16:13We both took our piece of paper.
00:16:14And ripped it.
00:16:15And we fucking said, this is not what we thought it was.
00:16:20This is not gonna cut it.
00:16:20If this is what's happening out here, we are not in a good place.
00:16:24And we both nodded and we said, I'll see you tomorrow.
00:16:28We'll go back to the drawing board.
00:16:29And I feel like that's the energy that you're supposed to get
00:16:32from watching a good comedian.
00:16:37My name is Andrea Jin.
00:16:38I'm an immigrant.
00:16:40I immigrated here when I was 10 years old.
00:16:42And there was a lot of pressure at that time for me to like Mulan.
00:16:47You know?
00:16:48My secret favorite princess was actually Sleeping Beauty
00:16:53because she was asleep for that whole movie.
00:16:55And then when she woke up, she had a castle and money.
00:16:59Like, that's magical.
00:17:00You know?
00:17:01Mulan had to cut her hair off with a sword and then fight a war.
00:17:05Ew.
00:17:06That's not...
00:17:07That's not what I immigrated here for.
00:17:10You know?
00:17:11I wanted to just hang back, relax American values.
00:17:14Right?
00:17:14Yeah.
00:17:15I love...
00:17:16I love doing that.
00:17:17She was a little bit nervous.
00:17:18She stumbled a couple times.
00:17:19I think her stumbling was materialistic.
00:17:21I love dogs.
00:17:24Some say I love them a little too much.
00:17:26Because I touch them whenever I want.
00:17:28I do.
00:17:29Strange dogs.
00:17:30I just keep treats in my pocket.
00:17:31I don't know if I'm gonna get lucky.
00:17:32You know?
00:17:34But I touched a Shih Tzu.
00:17:36And he looked at me like I did something wrong.
00:17:39Maybe you shouldn't be so soft.
00:17:42Ever thought of that?
00:17:44Maybe you should cover up, put on a little sweater or something if that's not what you're interested in.
00:17:48And let's be honest, you walked right through my hand.
00:17:52I don't know who's gonna believe you without underbite anyway.
00:17:55You know what I mean?
00:17:56I love when it's so out to left field.
00:17:59You know what I mean?
00:18:01One thing I don't like about church that churches do, I don't like mission trips though.
00:18:03Y'all know what a mission trip is?
00:18:05The kids, what they do is they go door to door and they say,
00:18:07Hey, will you please either pray for me or give me some money for a vacation?
00:18:12And they go like Honduras, Costa Rica.
00:18:15And I'm not 100% sure where Honduras is.
00:18:18But I know that it is like Mexican-y.
00:18:22Wait, oh my God.
00:18:24Wait, cut that, cut that.
00:18:26I forgot I was in LA.
00:18:28Okay, listen.
00:18:30Could you imagine a dude Honduras was praying?
00:18:32Like, Father God, Lord, please send us some help with this youth center, Lord.
00:18:36We need help building it, Jesus.
00:18:37If you could please send us 12 10th graders.
00:18:41Yes.
00:18:43It was very funny.
00:18:44I thought he was great.
00:18:45But like, I don't know if he moves the mountain.
00:18:47No.
00:18:48I really like Kayla.
00:18:49I think I like them more than you guys.
00:18:52Where am I going?
00:18:53Makeup?
00:18:53Kayla, you gonna sit right here.
00:18:54Okay.
00:18:54I am a huge fan of Chelsea Handel.
00:18:57I've loved her since high school.
00:18:59And she made me want to do comedy.
00:19:01So if she doesn't like my jokes, I will walk into the river.
00:19:04That's crazy.
00:19:04Yeah, I feel the same way about...
00:19:05I just find a river and just become a floater.
00:19:07Yeah, I feel that way about the male.
00:19:09Here we go.
00:19:14I'm sorry I keep jerking you around.
00:19:17Sorry.
00:19:19All right.
00:19:20Here we go.
00:19:21Caitlin Palufo!
00:19:26Hey!
00:19:29Oh, my goodness!
00:19:32Hello, Los Angeles.
00:19:34How we doing, huh?
00:19:36My name's Caitlin Palufo.
00:19:38I'm excited to be here.
00:19:39I'm newly single.
00:19:40All right.
00:19:42Only the women woo.
00:19:43I...
00:19:44I'm single now and I discovered I'm a bad lay.
00:19:47All right?
00:19:47I'm in my 30s.
00:19:48I have bad knees and a bad attitude.
00:19:50Okay?
00:19:51I just get so distracted.
00:19:53I do.
00:19:53I can't even have sex with a guy who's wearing a necklace.
00:19:56Ladies, make them take off their jewelry.
00:19:58You deserve better than that.
00:20:00Okay?
00:20:00Yeah.
00:20:00You don't deserve to be chin-fucked by St. Christopher.
00:20:08Every single thrust.
00:20:11Yeah.
00:20:13You're just getting teabagged by God.
00:20:15All right?
00:20:16Instead of being like, I'm gonna cum.
00:20:18It's like, I'm gonna chip a tooth, I think.
00:20:22You also have to be careful for your hands.
00:20:24You gotta make sure the hands are at the hips.
00:20:25Never put him over the shoulders.
00:20:27Don't do that.
00:20:28Okay?
00:20:28Because, ladies, as soon as you put your hands over his shoulders,
00:20:31he's gonna try and pick you up.
00:20:33And you don't need that kind of confidence killer.
00:20:36Men, I don't care how strong you are.
00:20:38Whenever you pick us up, we have to watch your face change.
00:20:44It's hilarious.
00:20:45And it never changes to, wow, she's lighter than I thought she'd be.
00:20:51It always changes to, Jesus fucking Christ.
00:20:55Did you eat an anvil?
00:20:58Anvil.
00:20:59Keep him at the hips.
00:21:01Yeah, I'm sad to say I am a tough comer.
00:21:03Okay?
00:21:04I'm a tough comer.
00:21:05I wish I were an easy cum.
00:21:07I'm not.
00:21:07I need a vibrator in the bedroom.
00:21:09That's what I like.
00:21:09Who's using a vibrator?
00:21:10Ladies.
00:21:11Over here, you and me.
00:21:13We got the toughest clits in L.A., huh?
00:21:16I got a tough-ass clitoris, all right?
00:21:19Yeah, she's kind of like a grizzled detective.
00:21:22She's been on the force for 20 years.
00:21:25She's chain-smoking Marlboro cigarettes.
00:21:27This is good.
00:21:28Yeah, I call her Dick Wolf, okay?
00:21:31And a vibrator's great.
00:21:32A vibrator's great.
00:21:33It's just not something you can whip out the first time with a new guy.
00:21:36It can be a little intimidating for him.
00:21:38Yeah.
00:21:39You're basically opening a drawer looking at a man saying,
00:21:41you will never be enough.
00:21:44And younger guys hate a vibrator.
00:21:47Under 25, they got an ego about it.
00:21:48They're like, we're not gonna need a vibrator, babe.
00:21:51I know the whole alphabet.
00:21:55Cause they don't know how to finger.
00:21:56They just do whatever they see in porn.
00:21:58They're like, ah, ah, ah, ah.
00:22:04Yeah.
00:22:05Have you ever had your pussy blown on?
00:22:06It is humiliating.
00:22:09It's like, this isn't green tea.
00:22:11What the fuck are you doing?
00:22:13Up here.
00:22:14Is there dust in my keyboard?
00:22:16Knock it off.
00:22:17Get the vibrator.
00:22:19Get it in here.
00:22:21They got 10 minutes until Survivor's on.
00:22:25All right, that's it for me.
00:22:26I'm Caleb Alufo.
00:22:28Thank you so much.
00:22:33She's true.
00:22:34Yes, absolutely.
00:22:35That was an A+.
00:22:36I have to be.
00:22:38I have to be.
00:22:39Call her back out.
00:22:39Call her back out, production.
00:22:40No, no, don't do that.
00:22:40Go pee.
00:22:42Yeah.
00:22:43Fuck.
00:22:43Again?
00:22:44It's the fifth pee, Chelsea.
00:22:45Maybe it's time to put the bottle down.
00:22:47Hurry up.
00:22:49Fuck.
00:22:58What the fuck?
00:23:01Are they gonna tell her?
00:23:02Oh, yes.
00:23:05I loved you in New York.
00:23:07The material in New York was unbelievable.
00:23:09And for you to be able to come back and keep the same energy but fucking increase the volume is
00:23:16unbelievable.
00:23:16And we can only take a few to the next stage.
00:23:19But I don't feel like you deserve the weight after that set.
00:23:21You're going to the next set.
00:23:24Oh!
00:23:25Woo!
00:23:27Woo!
00:23:27Woo!
00:23:29I got emotional there.
00:23:31I got emotional.
00:23:35I'm really proud of what I did.
00:23:36I'm really proud.
00:23:37I'm so proud of you.
00:23:39I mean, I'm grateful.
00:23:40And I think I represented myself well.
00:23:43I think I only embarrassed my family a little bit.
00:23:50You're a wild card, man.
00:23:52Kevin picked you last.
00:23:53You got any extra pressure?
00:23:54Uh, I do not feel like I need to impress Kevin anymore tonight.
00:23:58I feel like he was very impressed.
00:24:00He just wanted me to close the set a little bit more efficiently.
00:24:04And, uh, I think I'm going to do that tonight.
00:24:07I'm going to take the feedback from Kevin.
00:24:08But I'm going to still remain true to myself.
00:24:11I feel confident.
00:24:12Mwah.
00:24:13Ha!
00:24:14Jonathan!
00:24:21Hello, white people.
00:24:24I'm happy to be here.
00:24:25I was recently in Rome, Italy.
00:24:28Not Georgia.
00:24:29Yeah.
00:24:30I really enjoyed Rome, you know.
00:24:32But the biggest lesson I learned going to Rome was that, uh,
00:24:36any time you go to a flight, you should take a shit at home.
00:24:42I'm in the bathroom.
00:24:43I'm thinking I'm going through it, right?
00:24:45Until this dude comes in.
00:24:46Fucking hitting all the stalls and walls and shit.
00:24:50And the next thing I hear is,
00:24:52No!
00:24:55God, no!
00:24:58Next thing I saw was a hand come up under the saw, like,
00:25:01Ah!
00:25:03I was like, hey, man, hey, man.
00:25:05What you need?
00:25:05What you need?
00:25:06He's like, ah!
00:25:07My stall's out of toilet paper.
00:25:09Can you give me some toilet paper?
00:25:11And I didn't want to give him no toilet paper.
00:25:13But I also didn't want this nigga to touch my leg again.
00:25:17And that's how I met my best friend.
00:25:21I turned 40, so I got a bucket list.
00:25:25I only got one thing on my bucket list right now.
00:25:27And that's, uh, to meet a Native American real estate agent.
00:25:39Well, if you liked me, if you loved me,
00:25:42I'm gonna be signing titties by the bar.
00:25:45I've been Pap Johnson.
00:25:47Enjoy the rest of your night.
00:25:51Kevin, where are you from?
00:25:52New York?
00:25:53LA?
00:25:53First LA.
00:25:55So he was actually my ultimate.
00:25:57Like, he had his set, and I felt like, I was like,
00:26:01I don't think you gave the best version of yourself,
00:26:04but I can tell that there's a comedy cadence there.
00:26:06He did that. He did it again.
00:26:07He did it again.
00:26:08He did it again, yeah.
00:26:09I just feel like he wasn't prepared.
00:26:11That was probably the most disappointing set of the night.
00:26:15I actually feel like ass.
00:26:17I'm not happy with my set.
00:26:18I've been better.
00:26:19I've been a thousand times better than what I showed tonight.
00:26:23This wasn't my best, and I just got to live with that.
00:26:26It's so much pressure, and you got Kevin Hart up there,
00:26:29you know, watching you.
00:26:30You're like, Camel, you little shit.
00:26:33I know.
00:26:34Ain't no reason for you to beat yourself up.
00:26:35You ain't do nothing up there that you need to be like, what the fuck?
00:26:37Forgive yourself and realize that you're still a dope-ass comedian.
00:26:40I have a hard time sometimes, like, pouring love into myself,
00:26:42and I feel like that's one of these times right now
00:26:44where I'm just struggling to pour love into myself.
00:26:46I'm gonna have fun being that's okay for me.
00:26:48I love you so much.
00:26:51It's all right, babes.
00:26:5230-second warning for Winston!
00:26:55All right, Winston!
00:26:59Going into this one, I'm way less nervous than I was
00:27:01because the last one, Kevin and Keegan seem to really enjoy
00:27:05the perspective that I brought.
00:27:06And so, you know, I just feel a lot more looser
00:27:08and more comfortable, so we'll see.
00:27:10I'm, like, excited to just really surprise them,
00:27:14especially Kumail and Chelsea, who definitely haven't seen me before.
00:27:17Winston! Hodges!
00:27:20Hopefully, Kevin and Keegan, I give them more of what they enjoyed so much
00:27:24and help me get through to the next round.
00:27:28I'm originally from a small town called Cartersville, Virginia.
00:27:31It's population less than 500 people.
00:27:33I recently moved to Washington, D.C.,
00:27:36and I found this out when I moved to D.C.
00:27:38D.C. has been ranked the third gayest city in America.
00:27:42We got third gayest city. That's right.
00:27:43They gave us the bronze medal of gay. That's what they focused on.
00:27:46They said, enjoy your third place of being gay.
00:27:48And that was alarming to me for two reasons.
00:27:51One, I am straight.
00:27:53And two, I am competitive as hell.
00:27:57So, when I moved to Washington, D.C.,
00:28:01and they were like, we were in third place,
00:28:03I was like, how many dicks to first, brother?
00:28:05What's the number?
00:28:07What do we got to do?
00:28:08I'm trying to bring a championship back to the city.
00:28:11You lost your mind. You kidding me?
00:28:13I come from the type of small town where I had friends and family back home
00:28:17that were like, Winston, aren't you worried that if you moved to D.C.
00:28:21and you surround yourself with all that gay nonsense,
00:28:26that you're going to end up burning in hell?
00:28:29And I was like, I'll tell you right now, I'm willing to burn in hell.
00:28:33Ain't going to be for third place. I'll tell you that much right now.
00:28:37Ain't going to happen, brother. Hell no.
00:28:38I'll be in hell, but there'll be a fucking gold medal around my neck, I tell you.
00:28:45I used to teach at a school for autism.
00:28:48That was my full-time gig before I started doing comedy.
00:28:51You know what I mean? That was my full-time job.
00:28:52I did that before stand-up.
00:28:54And let me tell you right now, if you ever meet someone that does that,
00:28:57don't do what a lot of people do.
00:28:58Don't come up and tell me that you think vaccines cause autism.
00:29:02I don't need to hear that.
00:29:03Every day I'd have a complete stranger come up and be like,
00:29:05you do know.
00:29:08The only reason you have that goddamn job is because of them vaccines.
00:29:14You know that.
00:29:15And every day I had to be like, vaccines do not cause autism.
00:29:24I'm pretty sure anime does though.
00:29:26You know what I mean?
00:29:26I'm pretty sure it's a one-to-one if you like anime.
00:29:31Welcome to the spectrum, baby.
00:29:32I don't make the rules.
00:29:34That's true, man.
00:29:35I've been Winston Ides.
00:29:36You guys have a great night, bro.
00:29:39That's OG original.
00:29:40It is exactly what we said in New York.
00:29:43We're like, holy fuck.
00:29:44There's no one like him.
00:29:45Nobody like him.
00:29:46Hey!
00:29:48If you had seen the set in New York, he came out.
00:29:51His take, his bait, his reverse, it was really good.
00:29:55Seeing that and then seeing him somehow piggyback off of that.
00:30:00With more shit.
00:30:03More weird, like only him shit.
00:30:08I'm a born and raised L.A. comedian.
00:30:10So I do feel a lot of pressure to represent L.A. really well
00:30:13and represent black women in comedy really well.
00:30:15I take on that responsibility.
00:30:17The competition is really steep and I recognize that now
00:30:20and I want to go and give it all I got.
00:30:22You know?
00:30:22Ooh, I can't wait.
00:30:23Shout out for Felicia Foulkes!
00:30:31My name's Felicia Foulkes.
00:30:34Yes.
00:30:35I'm excited to be here tonight.
00:30:37A little bit about me.
00:30:38I got three white friends.
00:30:39Yes, I count them.
00:30:40They count me.
00:30:40I think fair is fair.
00:30:43I don't know.
00:30:43It's hard dealing with my white friends right now
00:30:45because they're all woke.
00:30:46You know what I mean?
00:30:48There's a lot of new woke white people in my life.
00:30:50And I've had a problem with that.
00:30:51You know what I mean?
00:30:53Because my friends are so woke and white,
00:30:55they almost getting racist again.
00:30:57You know what I mean?
00:30:59They're starting to fuck with me.
00:31:01Like I'll give you an example.
00:31:03I was outside at night taking pictures with my friend.
00:31:06She won't use the flash.
00:31:07I said, Kristen, hey babe, are you gonna turn the flash on?
00:31:11I feel like you can't really see me that well in these pictures.
00:31:13I swear to God, this was her reaction.
00:31:15She was like, I didn't want to be the one to point out
00:31:16we can't really see you that well at night.
00:31:25I said, bitch, what?
00:31:27This is more racist just to take these pictures
00:31:29and post them tomorrow like I didn't go to Vegas with you bitches.
00:31:33You know what I mean?
00:31:35It's more racist that when Kristen tags me in the pictures the next day,
00:31:38she tags me in the night sky.
00:31:39I'm not up there.
00:31:43Stupid bitch.
00:31:46I do have a confession too.
00:31:47I got a man.
00:31:48My boyfriend, he is white.
00:31:50He's skinny.
00:31:50My boyfriend's real skinny.
00:31:52I'm like a nice skinny man.
00:31:53I don't care what color they are.
00:31:54I've always like a nice sliver of a man.
00:31:58You know what I'm saying?
00:31:59I want no big motherfucker fee-fi-fo-fum
00:32:00around my goddamn house.
00:32:04Keep it down.
00:32:06Like a nice end piece.
00:32:07You get what I'm saying?
00:32:07Like a...
00:32:12But my best friend, she hates my man.
00:32:15She really does.
00:32:16She doesn't like that he's skinny.
00:32:17We're both big girls and she's always like,
00:32:18Felicia, you need to date bigger guys.
00:32:20You need to date bigger guys.
00:32:21We're both big girls.
00:32:22And I asked her the other day, I was like,
00:32:23what kind of man do you want me to be with?
00:32:24And I saw the guy, she goes,
00:32:25I want you to be with like a seven foot guy with like an eight pack.
00:32:27I was like, yeah, I've never seen an eight pack.
00:32:29She was like, oh my God,
00:32:30you've never seen one?
00:32:31You don't know what you're missing.
00:32:32When a guy has an eight pack,
00:32:33his abs are like pow, pow, pow, pow.
00:32:36Pow, pow, pow, pow.
00:32:41I was like, eight pounds?
00:32:43She was like, eight pounds.
00:32:44I was like, bitch, that's nothing.
00:32:46Listen, when my man takes his shirt off, 24 ribs.
00:32:50Pow, pow, pow, pow.
00:32:54I'm just saying, it's no competition.
00:32:55That's all I'm saying.
00:32:55Bye guys.
00:32:56Thank you so much.
00:32:57Love you.
00:32:58Great.
00:32:58Great.
00:32:59Great set.
00:33:00Yeah.
00:33:01Great set.
00:33:02We're falling right.
00:33:04That's a fucking great set.
00:33:05That was exciting to watch.
00:33:06A great set.
00:33:07That was exciting to watch.
00:33:08That's called a seasoned comedian.
00:33:10I loved watching her.
00:33:11I'm going to watch her for an hour.
00:33:13She destroyed the first time in my life.
00:33:15She was great.
00:33:16Thank you so much.
00:33:16That rib joke is so hilarious.
00:33:18Okay, thank you.
00:33:20You're so good.
00:33:21Because I'm scared.
00:33:22She's so likeable.
00:33:24Oh my God.
00:33:24As soon as she walks up, whatever that is, she's got that thing that makes you want to listen
00:33:28to her.
00:33:28I understand the hating value.
00:33:30Stop.
00:33:30Stop.
00:33:31I understand.
00:33:32You got Steve.
00:33:33You got Caitlin.
00:33:35You got Felicia.
00:33:36Winston.
00:33:37No one's seen that before.
00:33:38Winston is your soldier.
00:33:39My number one.
00:33:40Okay.
00:33:44All throughout, you know, my 20s.
00:33:46I lived in my van from 2015 to 2023.
00:33:53Chef Salad in the van.
00:33:54I'm the chef that's the van.
00:33:55And because of that, I was able to drive to Atlanta or, you know, go do a show for like
00:34:02$100, even though it costs $200 to get there.
00:34:06And if I'm going to be completely honest with you, at this point, I'm in too deep.
00:34:09What am I going to do?
00:34:10Go learn something else?
00:34:11I just want to tell jokes.
00:34:14It's important for me to represent myself.
00:34:17My entire strategy throughout this entire thing is simply to do the best that I can
00:34:23do.
00:34:23Drinking is a weird drug.
00:34:25And it is a drug.
00:34:26Don't let nobody tell you nothing different.
00:34:28Drinking is a drug.
00:34:29Drinking, right, is a drug that will open up doors for you.
00:34:35That otherwise would have never been opened.
00:34:38But it will rob you of everything you need to take advantage of that open door.
00:34:44Case in point, recently, I just had my first threesome.
00:34:52Attempt.
00:34:53My first threesome.
00:34:58First threesome attempt.
00:35:01This is the thing about threesome.
00:35:02If you ain't ready for it, it ain't going to go the way you think it's going to go.
00:35:07They just sprung it on me.
00:35:08Surprise!
00:35:08Whoa, wait a minute.
00:35:10Let me do some push-ups or something first.
00:35:14Now, I had been drinking whiskey all night.
00:35:16I couldn't feel my face, let alone my dick.
00:35:20It was bad.
00:35:22I did whiskey dick.
00:35:24And it's fucked up, you know, because your mind won't it, but your body has betrayed you.
00:35:31Just trying to power through it, using this limp, noodley shit.
00:35:35Just...
00:35:35Ah!
00:35:37Ah!
00:35:37It was like trying to put a gummy worm through a Cheerio.
00:35:40Just...
00:35:42You think your dick gonna come alive when it get inside?
00:35:44It's not, you drunk bitch.
00:35:50You dick dead.
00:35:53Drink some Gatorade.
00:35:55Take a nap, try in the morning.
00:35:59But I couldn't do that.
00:36:01I started thinking.
00:36:02I said, my dick don't work.
00:36:04But ain't nothing wrong with my tongue.
00:36:07Nasty.
00:36:08Nasty.
00:36:11And I got to work that night.
00:36:13I...
00:36:14You know how nasty you gotta get to overcompensate for this lack of dick you throwing?
00:36:19I started licking everything.
00:36:22Everything.
00:36:23Non-sexy shit.
00:36:24What's that?
00:36:24An elbow and a kneecap?
00:36:25Bring it here.
00:36:27I'm sucking that.
00:36:28Instead of eyeballing a nostril?
00:36:30Bring it here, dammit!
00:36:32Shut the fuck up.
00:36:33You wasn't there.
00:36:34I...
00:36:37After a while, I got tired.
00:36:38They wove me out, boy.
00:36:40My jaw was locked up like a pit bull.
00:36:44I was talking all funny.
00:36:45I sounded like Sammy Davis Jr.
00:36:46I'm fucked up, man.
00:36:48I...
00:36:49He can't say that.
00:36:52Ladies and gentlemen, that's my turn.
00:36:58He just started off with a joke of story.
00:37:01He took his time getting there and was okay with not coming out with a joke and hitting it.
00:37:04I respect that.
00:37:06I like his look.
00:37:06If he's nervous, he didn't look it at all.
00:37:08I like his look and I like the fact that with his look, there's an edginess to him that you
00:37:14don't expect.
00:37:14Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:14I was not expecting that.
00:37:16Motherfuckers!
00:37:16And also, you can relate to having whiskey dick, you know?
00:37:19And not...
00:37:22Is that why you liked him, Kevin?
00:37:24Were you relating, Kevin?
00:37:25Is that why?
00:37:25No.
00:37:26If anything, there's other points that I can relate to.
00:37:30It was the other parts of the act that were resonating with you, Rick.
00:37:34Woo!
00:37:35Okay.
00:37:35Bye, guys.
00:37:37I'm gonna try to do a club.
00:37:38I feel a little nervous, but since round one, I've been instantly on the road.
00:37:42I've been running the set a little bit.
00:37:44It's been getting a mixed response.
00:37:46Working a joke and taking it from a joke that you think has legs to a joke that's actually very
00:37:52good is very difficult.
00:37:54You have to write every day.
00:37:55You have to perform every day.
00:37:57You have to edit your jokes constantly.
00:38:00I'm Ray Lau.
00:38:01How are ya?
00:38:03Oh, shit.
00:38:04Asian girl up front.
00:38:04What's good?
00:38:06Hey.
00:38:06We made it!
00:38:08We made it!
00:38:11So I grew up...
00:38:13I actually grew up recently, and I'm...
00:38:17I just finished, okay?
00:38:18And now you can see I'm growing a little something here.
00:38:21I'm a big man now.
00:38:23Okay?
00:38:23I gotta be honest, though.
00:38:24This mustache is the most controversial thing of my career.
00:38:27Okay?
00:38:28I posted a selfie.
00:38:29Somebody mean.
00:38:29He commented.
00:38:30He goes, you used to look like a cool Chinese skater.
00:38:34And now you look like a Korean pedophile.
00:38:38I said, that's messed up.
00:38:40But also, why did the race change?
00:38:47Also, I'm Japanese, so what the fuck are you...
00:38:50What is that?
00:38:52What is that?
00:38:52I'm not, but he got scared.
00:38:54He got scared.
00:38:55I'm a young man now.
00:38:56Now, there are certain young man rules.
00:38:57Okay?
00:38:58I was in New York recently.
00:38:59On the train in New York, there's rules, which is that young people, we're supposed to give
00:39:02up our seats for old people, right?
00:39:04We know this.
00:39:05There I was on the train.
00:39:07And then this sort of old-ish lady walk into the train.
00:39:13Old-ish.
00:39:13Okay?
00:39:1460 max.
00:39:15She come into the train and she starts staring at me like...
00:39:18What?
00:39:18I'm like, bro, you are not old enough.
00:39:2260?
00:39:22I'm like, nice try, young lady.
00:39:24Okay?
00:39:25You got your whole life ahead of you.
00:39:27All right?
00:39:28You got a couple of gray hairs.
00:39:29I'm stressed out too, bitch.
00:39:31You better hang on to that railing.
00:39:33Okay?
00:39:35It's a long ride.
00:39:36Okay?
00:39:3860?
00:39:38You're not even old enough to be president yet.
00:39:40Okay?
00:39:41What the hell are you talking about?
00:39:43What do you mean?
00:39:46Also, I was looking at her, I'm like, she looked good.
00:39:50I was looking at her, I'm like, I would.
00:39:52And I realized right there, that's the line.
00:39:55Is if someone come into the train and you would, you don't have to get up for them.
00:40:01Am I wrong, though?
00:40:02Am I wrong, though?
00:40:04I'm like, I don't have a seat for you, but you can sit right here.
00:40:06Okay?
00:40:08I'm Ray Laugh, guys.
00:40:08Thank you so much.
00:40:10Really appreciate you.
00:40:11I'll see you later.
00:40:13I like the material.
00:40:14Really good energy, too.
00:40:16He would, like, step on the last to get a bigger one the next time.
00:40:19He was like...
00:40:20Really funny.
00:40:20But he said he did this.
00:40:22Yeah.
00:40:22He said he just kept doing this.
00:40:23He wasn't nervous.
00:40:24He was not.
00:40:25Seasoned, right?
00:40:26Yeah.
00:40:27I feel great.
00:40:29I'm buzzing.
00:40:29I'm buzzing.
00:40:31I call my mom.
00:40:32This is my mom.
00:40:33She speaks Chinese, so I'll try to translate for you.
00:40:38Oh.
00:40:39She hung up.
00:40:40Are you worried about the alcohol consumption of the audience and how that will affect them
00:40:45watching your set?
00:40:46Nope, I need that.
00:40:47You need them drunk.
00:40:48I think the drunker they are, the funnier I feel.
00:40:50Like, I'm with it.
00:40:51It's good.
00:40:52A little sauce is good.
00:40:53A little sauce.
00:40:54A little sauce.
00:40:55A little sauce.
00:40:5530 second warning for Usama.
00:40:56Hey!
00:40:59New York in this bitch.
00:41:01Let them know.
00:41:01Thank y'all.
00:41:02Usama.
00:41:03Go get him.
00:41:04How does he feel?
00:41:06Feeling low pressure.
00:41:07Caitlyn got the best, you know, got the, the, you know, got the what I got last time.
00:41:11Uh, so she's the one to beat for sure.
00:41:14You know, you want to be as good every time.
00:41:16Uh, confident that the set is as good.
00:41:18It goes a little deeper.
00:41:19And I already know Kevin and Keegan are on my side from the show.
00:41:22So I'm excited going in.
00:41:23I think they're expecting.
00:41:24And I want to rise to the challenge.
00:41:26I'm Usama Siddiqui.
00:41:27How y'all feeling?
00:41:30It's a good show.
00:41:31A lot of white guy jokes today.
00:41:32Y'all okay?
00:41:33I'm sorry, dude.
00:41:35I don't know, man.
00:41:36I wish I had a white mom sometimes.
00:41:37I don't know.
00:41:38Easier chores.
00:41:39Right?
00:41:40Right?
00:41:41White mom chores are like, Hunter, take out the trash.
00:41:44Right?
00:41:45And Hunter's like, Mom, you're a bitch.
00:41:49White mom chores are cute.
00:41:50Immigrant mom chores are like, hey, go fix my business.
00:41:56Go.
00:41:58That's level one chore at the house.
00:42:01Growing up, I'd be like playing video game.
00:42:03My mom's like, hey, get up and get me a passport.
00:42:05Go.
00:42:09Uh, sorry, guys.
00:42:11I can't come play outside.
00:42:12I have to go take on the U.S. government, okay?
00:42:14So I don't know.
00:42:16I don't know.
00:42:18My mom, her new thing is trying to get me married.
00:42:21Have y'all's moms ever tried to set you up with somebody before?
00:42:23You know the issue?
00:42:24They always choose someone based on what they want.
00:42:26Right?
00:42:26Never based on what you want.
00:42:27It's never like, Usama, you have to meet Lucy.
00:42:30She bangs on the first date.
00:42:35Meet Sarah.
00:42:35Her ass is juicy.
00:42:36Oh!
00:42:38Oh!
00:42:39I hope you find work in sanitation,
00:42:41cause she has a dump truck, my guy.
00:42:45Moms have no idea where the hoes at.
00:42:47Can we...
00:42:49Nary a ho, they know.
00:42:52Y'all are a great crowd.
00:42:53Y'all are a very good crowd.
00:42:54Last show I did was not good.
00:42:56It was all British people in the row.
00:42:58I mean, they're great, but it's like, you know,
00:43:00why is it so hard when you meet a British guy,
00:43:01not to mimic his accent to his face?
00:43:04Every time, right?
00:43:05They're like, hello!
00:43:06We're like, don't do it.
00:43:08Do not, do not, do not, do not, do not.
00:43:11Hello!
00:43:15I want you!
00:43:18Bro!
00:43:19And it's never the high-class accent, right?
00:43:22It's always the lantern British guy, right?
00:43:25I'll take you to cross the river!
00:43:27Ha!
00:43:29Every American's British accent
00:43:31is the Lord of the Rings innkeeper, right?
00:43:33Like, ten shillings for a night!
00:43:37Is that offensive?
00:43:39Little bit, little bit.
00:43:40Cause when he says hi to me, and I go, hello.
00:43:44That's like if I said hi to him,
00:43:46and he was like, ding-a-ding-a-ding-a-ding-a-ding.
00:43:51Right?
00:43:53But I'm allowed to do it,
00:43:55because they pillaged us for 200 years, right?
00:43:57So I get the fucking accent!
00:44:00As you get older,
00:44:01you realize that every race got hateable things.
00:44:08Listen!
00:44:09Listen.
00:44:09Puerto Ricans, Mexicans, beautiful people,
00:44:11not one has ever played the quiet game.
00:44:14East Asian's very smart,
00:44:16but they drive their kids too hard, right?
00:44:17Black people are perfect.
00:44:22Nothing to say there.
00:44:23Just...
00:44:23How about one of these?
00:44:26Big fan!
00:44:28Y'all been great.
00:44:28Thank y'all so much.
00:44:29Seriously.
00:44:32Look at this shit.
00:44:34There we go!
00:44:35They stood up!
00:44:36That's great.
00:44:37They stood up!
00:44:38He crushed in New York,
00:44:39and he comes and does the same thing again.
00:44:41It's unbelievable.
00:44:42Bring him back out.
00:44:43Tell him bring him back on.
00:44:45Someone who's crushed twice goes to him.
00:44:47Come to me.
00:44:48Oh, shit.
00:44:51He's back out!
00:44:52He's back out!
00:44:53I told you!
00:44:54Good job, Osama!
00:44:56Today, you blew me away,
00:44:58and you should be celebrating this moment.
00:45:00You don't have much time.
00:45:01I'm gonna show you, buddy.
00:45:05You got a standard ovation in New York, too.
00:45:08That's his start.
00:45:09He was awesome, but he's so cute.
00:45:12How cute is he, though?
00:45:13With his little dimples?
00:45:14I mean, I'm not trying to fuck him.
00:45:16I'm gonna fuck the guy in competition.
00:45:18I'm gonna have them on now.
00:45:19A man!
00:45:20He earned that.
00:45:21Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:45:23He's a pro.
00:45:23There's two, so there's eight left.
00:45:25And there were eight!
00:45:28After 14 years doing comedy,
00:45:30because comedy, man, it's intense.
00:45:32It's not just amazing shows like this.
00:45:34A lot of it is just grueling, grueling shit.
00:45:37You put on for the tag, boy!
00:45:39Congratulations on winning this thing, bro.
00:45:40Love, love, love.
00:45:41I'm so proud of you.
00:45:42The vindication of doing this work,
00:45:44it seems like the path was worth it.
00:45:45Good job, buddy!
00:45:47I was like, Caitlin got it.
00:45:48I better.
00:45:50Wait, did they tell you that?
00:45:51He said, you're better than Caitlin.
00:45:53All right, all right, all right.
00:45:54A little bit, a little bit.
00:45:55All right, all right, all right.
00:45:55We heard that.
00:45:56We heard that, buddy.
00:45:57Time for we close, no time for we show.
00:46:00I just think in order to talk on stage for an hour straight with a microphone and no one
00:46:05else is allowed to speak, you have to understand the pulse of what's happening because you're
00:46:09creating the vibe.
00:46:10Mm-hmm.
00:46:11So when I walk out on stage, I'm like, this is my vibe and you're coming with me.
00:46:15As you become more experienced, you understand how to manipulate that energy so that people
00:46:19are coming with you.
00:46:20And also, when you're having a good time, everyone's having a good time.
00:46:23They can tell.
00:46:24It's always infectious.
00:46:25When you come into a room and you're in a good mood, everyone's happy.
00:46:28And you can also tell when someone's pretending to have a good time on stage.
00:46:31Yeah.
00:46:31My name is T.
00:46:32I'm a horrible lesbian, okay?
00:46:34Let's get that out right now.
00:46:35I hate being a lesbian.
00:46:36This shit hard.
00:46:38I don't know what you fellas do to them.
00:46:40By the time they come to me, these bitches are ruined.
00:46:43What the fuck are y'all doing to them?
00:46:46You know what I got to do to fuck your bitch?
00:46:49I got to give the bitch a pep talk.
00:46:52I got to look dead at her pussy and say, you is kind.
00:46:56You is smart.
00:46:59And you is important.
00:47:02She's got a lot of personality and not a lot of form or structure.
00:47:06That's right, yeah.
00:47:07A ton of personality.
00:47:07I'm a hater.
00:47:10Yeah.
00:47:10I truly love hating.
00:47:11It's one of my favorite things to do.
00:47:14I don't just talk about it.
00:47:16I actually take action.
00:47:18Anytime I book a long-distance flight,
00:47:20I make sure to pick a middle seat.
00:47:24That way I have the opportunity to separate a loving couple.
00:47:29I laughed, but it was like intellectual laugh.
00:47:32Yes.
00:47:32You know?
00:47:32Really, really good.
00:47:33I'm looking for anybody in they fucking 40s and fucking 50s.
00:47:37Where y'all at?
00:47:39Oh, look at all of the young babies.
00:47:41I'm not talking to you motherfuckers right now.
00:47:43You got to understand.
00:47:45When you look in the crowd of young people, you can't stare at them for too long.
00:47:50They spicy.
00:47:51If you stare at a young bitch for too long, she ready to fight.
00:47:54What she don't realize is if you over 40, if I'm staring at you like this...
00:47:58Bitch, I'm trying to figure out if I know you.
00:48:00Kim!
00:48:01Bitch, is that you?
00:48:03Still really good material, not quite as good as Chicago.
00:48:06Whoever we're choosing from this, we're saying funny as fuck.
00:48:11I'm leaning toward people who are fucking destroying us.
00:48:15No matter what you do, you know you can't do it like me.
00:48:18Your socks kill shit.
00:48:20Come on.
00:48:22You better show it off, girl.
00:48:24I'm originally from Stilwell, Kansas.
00:48:25I went to Kansas State University.
00:48:2899% acceptance rate.
00:48:30Studied theater.
00:48:31The only department that gave me like a scholarship.
00:48:35So, I don't know, I just, maybe the theater brain in me.
00:48:38Like a five minute set, I view it as more of like a performance piece.
00:48:42Yes!
00:48:44Yes!
00:48:47I love the art of it.
00:48:49I'm not trying to like be famous.
00:48:51Like I really just want to do comedy and I hope people fuck with that.
00:48:55I don't know if I can say fuck.
00:48:57I hope they fuck with that.
00:48:58I used to work at an STD center.
00:49:02So maybe some of you recognize me?
00:49:09It was fun.
00:49:10The women would come in and I would ask for their ID, insurance card, and also a picture of the
00:49:15guy.
00:49:18Because I'm pretty sure I can tell you what you have from that.
00:49:24You know, this one girl was like, I don't know, he had a mullet.
00:49:27And I was like, you don't have much time left.
00:49:35Yeah, and it's tough out here.
00:49:36I just asked out my personal trainer.
00:49:39And he said, sorry I'm not attracted to you.
00:49:43And I was like, well whose fault is that?
00:49:52Kind of feel like you should fuck me or give me my money back.
00:49:56And I just went out with this one guy and he showed up wearing red jeans.
00:50:01So I said, oh, are you on your period?
00:50:06And then he got mad and he left.
00:50:08So he was.
00:50:17And I used to wear a purity ring in college.
00:50:20Because I was told that I had to save myself for Jesus.
00:50:24Which I think I thought meant, if I played my cards right, that one day I get to have sex
00:50:29with Jesus.
00:50:31But then I was like, that doesn't make any sense.
00:50:33He's probably a virgin, you know, because it runs in his family.
00:50:37And because I grew up so religious, I didn't stop wearing my promise ring until like four years ago.
00:50:43Which means fellas.
00:50:48You know, I'm bad in bed.
00:50:55I also break promises.
00:51:00I'm Olivia Carter, thank you.
00:51:05She fucked things up.
00:51:06She was great in Chicago.
00:51:07She just fucked things up.
00:51:09That was awesome.
00:51:10I loved her.
00:51:10She has the combo pattern of abstract jokes and showing her personality.
00:51:16Yes.
00:51:17That's a good observation, Chucky.
00:51:20There's like an adrenaline rush when you're on stage and then there's like a calm down.
00:51:24So I'm in the calm down, having a banana and chilling.
00:51:31All right, guys.
00:51:33I feel amazing to make it past the first round and into the callbacks.
00:51:36I tried to play it cool, but like I almost passed out when they called my name.
00:51:43I don't know what's going to happen at the end of this, but I know like I'm my best version
00:51:46I've ever been right now.
00:51:48I was so focused on comedy.
00:51:49I was ignoring other things that I needed to keep myself level.
00:51:51Taking time to work out.
00:51:52Eat good.
00:51:53Maybe go to therapy if you need it.
00:51:54You know, like just be a person.
00:51:57You don't have to be a jackass to be a dope comic.
00:52:00Shuffleup a red.
00:52:01Come in!
00:52:02You got something through your mouth.
00:52:04You gon' get it through your house.
00:52:09Yay.
00:52:12I just celebrated my 39th birthday and 39's not old, but like old things are starting to happen to me.
00:52:22Like I be falling and shit.
00:52:28Y'all laughing?
00:52:31I fall.
00:52:33I fell down the stairs at the airport.
00:52:36Nigga, I fell down every step.
00:52:40I fell so slow I was having full thoughts.
00:52:44I was like, I don't believe this is happening.
00:52:48At JFK.
00:52:52I'm getting older and I'm trying to do better.
00:52:55You know what I saw going to therapy?
00:52:57It's a lot of crying in therapy.
00:52:59And I hadn't cried in years.
00:53:01And I forgot I'm an ugly crier.
00:53:07That's me.
00:53:09My therapist be stressed out.
00:53:11She's like, take your time.
00:53:12Take your time.
00:53:13But she's charging me by the hour.
00:53:15So I'm like, go, go, go.
00:53:17Force it out.
00:53:19I like it now.
00:53:20You get a good cry, yo, if you feel so light after a good cry.
00:53:22You feel like you bust a nut.
00:53:24You feel like you need a nap.
00:53:27Because everyone got problems.
00:53:29Two things happened to me in my life that made me go to therapy.
00:53:32When I was 17, I got stabbed in a fight protecting a friend who I'm no longer friends with.
00:53:37And it makes me want to stab him.
00:53:40And then lastly, my cousin Gary passed away.
00:53:43My cousin Gary died of cancer.
00:53:44He was fighting cancer since we were six years old.
00:53:46And when we were younger, I didn't know my cousin was sick because the adults in our family kept it
00:53:50a secret.
00:53:51But I knew something was up because my cousin was lit.
00:53:54Out of no way one day he had tickets to go to WrestleMania.
00:53:57I was like, what?
00:54:00Front row?
00:54:03And so, a week later he took me to Disney where I was like, yo, my nigga.
00:54:08Ever since you got this new haircut, things have really been going our way.
00:54:13Yo, my name's Reg Thomas, y'all been amazing, thank you very much.
00:54:22I agree the impact that a good comic has after killing and you're saying their name I'm still
00:54:30saying Ray's name I'm still saying Ron it reminds me that Steve remains one of the front runners
00:54:38yes even though he's so far away people are killing there's no advantage to going early or
00:54:44lay we got to start chopping let's let's start xing out yeah let me hop back on the track yet
00:54:52we all did
00:54:53pretty good it's just kind of up to whatever they looking for at this point I also feel like I
00:54:58would
00:54:58never have to perform under this much pressure obviously we all hope we go through but if you
00:55:04don't you can't really be mad because we all succeeded so hopefully they like you for a

01:00:50I like the material I didn't see a break so I get the moment I get the emotions because
01:01:00you've put years into this fucking craft so I will let you have your emotional moment
01:01:05but your moment is earned it's not given you had a fucking great set and I did not know about
01:01:10your
01:01:10punchline
01:01:11all right and I want to tell those that are not in the tent you made it tough
01:01:20so thank you for doing your job if you didn't make it you're gonna make it in a different way
01:01:25I've been disappointed a million times and I've persevered and I've had huge wins and I've had big
01:01:32losses it's part of the game this is a long-term obligation being a comedian you know this is what
01:01:39you love then you do what you love and you persevere thank you all for participating to the 10 that
01:01:45go
01:01:45shit's about to get real the next stage of the competition will be a roast there's a clever approach
01:01:53to knowing how to navigate the space of a roast and we're just trying to test like your approach to
01:01:59doing another set through another dynamic that you didn't expect like the on-call fucking writing or the
01:02:06off-the-cuff thinking it takes me so long to write a really good joke not a guy who does
01:02:11it and like
01:02:12moves on so it's definitely a daunting thing that's not my normal cup of tea but I'll drink whatever they
01:02:16give me I'll be able to see how you are under the pressure underneath a certain amount of time
01:02:21that you had to prepare a lot of cool things go into it okay roasts I can do it it's
01:02:29just my not my
01:02:31favorite thank you guys

01:03:26the respect of the rest of the world of comedy that's a very big deal someone's career is about
