Unknown Speaker (0:32): Fun here, ladies and gentlemen. Fun.

Chris (1:14): So this is Jeffrey, the walking dad. Yes. We I I found you on the socials. You're funny as hell. And you're here to talk about whatever the hell you wanna talk about.

Chris (1:26): So give us a little background of who you are and what you're all about, and we'll take it from there, my friend.

Unknown Speaker (1:30): She's now that you said I'm so funny, I hope my wife actually is listening. So someone the

Unknown Speaker (1:36): I'll second that. I think you're funny as well, brother.

Unknown Speaker (1:39): I

Unknown Speaker (1:39): don't they're always the hardest ones to make laugh, right? Maybe they're just stupid people you live with all the time. Guess that's it. Why, yeah, so no, I started doing these Instagram jokes about two years back or a summer, a year and a half ago. It was really simple.

Unknown Speaker (1:56): I just like telling stupid jokes and a couple of friends said actually it's not that simple. 2016 flashback and I'm sitting in my office in a meeting a colleague sends me an interoffice message and the message has no text, just has a picture. And I thought the picture was me. I really did. I thought someone photoshopped my hair, but it was me.

Unknown Speaker (2:15): And then it turns out it's this actor in the TV show, and I, at that time, had never heard of The Walking Dead. But that's the whole thing, is people started saying, You look like Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead.

Chris (2:24): Absolutely. Dude, I just I was this I was today that that was today old when I just put those two together. I did not put that together before, Jeffrey.

Jeffrey (2:32): I've been sitting here the whole time thinking, why do I know this guy's face?

Chris (2:36): I never put that together till just now. Brilliant.

Unknown Speaker (2:39): Yeah. Well, I mean, I'd never seen this show. I hadn't heard of him, but then I thought I had to of course, I had to watch it. In 2016, my second kid was born, my son, and as they grow older, this thing just kept once in a while, would pop up in conversation. Eventually I watched the show, thought it was kind of fun and entertaining, and at least I looked like the cool guy, you know, in

Unknown Speaker (2:58): the show, right? So let

Jeffrey (3:00): me ask you this real quick, Jeffrey. Did you instantly say, Yeah, okay, I get it? You know, because you're that person who people are saying, look like this guy. Being that close to it, like, was the distinction right away, yeah, okay, I see where it's coming from, or did you have to work at it in your mind?

Unknown Speaker (3:16): No. I mean, I don't know what it is about. I don't know. Maybe there's some, like, thin face structure or something, but I got compared to all sorts of actors growing up from Andrew McCarthy to Doogie Howser to Tom

Unknown Speaker (3:27): I could see Andrew McCarthy for sure.

Unknown Speaker (3:29): Yeah. And then yeah. That was that was when I was, like, 18. And then maybe and then 2016 is the year I met my wife, and she actually maybe she was just trying to pick me up in a bar, but she actually said it was because I looked like I looked like Sherlock, which was a big show at that time, Benedict Cumberland. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (3:44): Yeah. I'd wavier hair then. And then this Daryl Dixon came up, and that was the most. Like, there was that one was clear to me. And especially I don't know how well people knew Daryl Dixon, but more I've looked at it a lot now.

Unknown Speaker (3:57): It's more from the side angle. But, yeah, no. It stuck right away. And then over those years, it developed from the idea of The Walking Dead to me constantly telling stupid jokes and annoying people, the walking dad and dad jokes and all that. So this

Unknown Speaker (4:10): I love it.

Unknown Speaker (4:10): This connection just burgeoned over the years. And and the Daryl Dixon thing's been been fun. I mean, I I now I would a couple years ago, was traveling out to London, other places, and people come up and ask me for autographs. They think I'm him.

Unknown Speaker (4:23): Was a very nice question.

Unknown Speaker (4:24): It took me, you know, for a long time, I would say, Oh, no, no, I just look like him. Then

Unknown Speaker (4:30): You just started showing autographs.

Unknown Speaker (4:32): My teenage daughter said, Well, why don't you tell everyone, give you a dollar to take a picture with them? Yeah. Oh, right on. I'm like, I think Norman Reedus asking for a dollar for a picture would be a bit suspicious, right? I mean, I think the guy's worth a bit more than that right now.

Unknown Speaker (4:45): Yeah, yeah. But anyway, so I've, it's been a fun ride, but then changing that to The Walking Dead just was a natural segue because I was telling super jokes. Then, so I did that a summer and a half ago, I think for ten months I had 200 followers, 300, and every day I'd be excited if like 50 people looked at a joke or a 100 like that Yeah, was a big yeah, yeah. And then almost exactly a year ago right now, went through sort of traumatic life thing where I had a business that we had to shut down. Wasn't the easiest, wasn't the easiest situation of life.

Unknown Speaker (5:18): And I don't know if there was a coincidence or if there was like just a need for the outlet, know, I mean, jokes and comedy, it's a release, right? Sort of, it lets go in stressful And and I certainly get accused. You know, my wife and I can be in the biggest fight, I'm trying to think of a joke. So maybe I

Unknown Speaker (5:33): don't always use that. I don't

Unknown Speaker (5:34): always use it at an appropriate time, which usually doesn't diffuse the situation, to say the least. About a year ago, took off. I'm not sure there was just Maybe you have some idea how this algorithm works on, it was Instagram only at that point. And suddenly some joke got a little bit popular. And then all of a sudden I was getting a few 100 and then a couple days over a thousand new followers a day.

Unknown Speaker (5:56): I have to say, I look back and I think why were those jokes funnier than other jokes? It's not always obvious. Know? Is

Unknown Speaker (6:04): No, it's not.

Unknown Speaker (6:04): It's really interesting and and I suspect it has to do with what time it's released, how the Mhmm. Instagram or Facebook algorithms catch something. Now they get published. Of course, some jokes and some deliveries are just funnier. But but honestly, I I don't always I certainly can't guess.

Jeffrey (6:20): Think Chris would agree with this. We have tried I don't think there's any way to figure it out. I'll give you a good example. The last three clips that I've released, two out of three got thousands of views, and the one in the middle was hundreds. Right?

Jeffrey (6:33): There's no rhyme or reason as to why I released that one that got hundreds at the same time I would release any other week, you know, and it would do the same as the other two. It's just there's no rhyme or reason to it, I don't think.

Unknown Speaker (6:45): And for you for you, they were at least equal in quality, I guess. Right?

Jeffrey (6:48): Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. I pretty much do every one of our shorts the same way as far as running it through the same audio, the same video, you know, trying to make it as clear and concise as possible.

Unknown Speaker (7:00): Now part of the

Unknown Speaker (7:01): part of

Chris (7:01): the reason why some of your stuff may light up, Jeffrey, if, if you're doing thirty seconds or less, the attention span of the world is that of a goldfish now.

Unknown Speaker (7:09): That does help a lot. You're

Chris (7:10): right. So right. So the thirty seconds or less ones, they blow up quicker than the thirty to sixty second ones on our on our YouTube because I do the YouTube side of it. So every day on YouTube, there's things dropping at least three times a day, except show days, they're four. So I try to make some of the things that drop on YouTube daily.

Chris (7:28): They're short, twenty five, thirty seconds or less. Then I have what I call inside the clips. So we'll we'll grab some stuff from your episode. That's a three minute bit that may go on, you know, a noon every day for two weeks type thing, depending on how many we have, but then sandwiching those morning and afternoon with those twenty five, thirty second clips, Not necessarily your show, but other shows because I interweave it. So it's not always the same person day after day after day.

Chris (7:53): So that that's helped our YouTube grow organically because there's there's always content. It's always different. And the length of it's different in by comparison except for their shows. Their shows vary from an hour to two hours depending on what day it is and what we're doing and who we're talking to and how the conversation flows.

Unknown Speaker (8:08): Yeah.

Chris (8:08): But but your Instagram, that's probably why your shorter ones are gonna blow up because people see them quickly, you know?

Unknown Speaker (8:15): I mean, learned a lot of tricks. Right? When I when I started, I always thought the silences were funny, but people just flip

Unknown Speaker (8:21): I off think the silences are hilarious, man.

Unknown Speaker (8:23): They are.

Chris (8:23): We've had we've we've had enough comedians on the show that they're like, silence is gold, man. When you when you rip a joke off and that pause and you let the cloud the crowd laugh and just and you're still holding that that silence

Unknown Speaker (8:35): It's comedic. On timing. Yeah.

Chris (8:36): They don't judge their seats. They're like, what's gonna say? What's he gonna say?

Jeffrey (8:39): Here's a good way to equate it. If you listen to music, and Chris loves these moments and songs where the whole band stops and starts at just in perfect time. Right? Right. That always drives the crowd wild because they're like, wow.

Jeffrey (8:51): There's four or fives. However many guys are in the band, they all stopped at the same time. They all started at the same time. And those moments are just as exciting for the musicians as they are the crowd. That's the same concept of that silence that you're using as comedic timing.

Chris (9:08): Right. Especially if you're not counting in. If you're just dead silent and you just come back in, it's, oh. How

Unknown Speaker (9:17): did they

Unknown Speaker (9:17): do that? Right.

Unknown Speaker (9:18): I mean, there's a you know, in a band, you've got the synchronization and you're tight and it's great, right? You hit the know, one of my sons plays piano really nicely. And his best versions, his best versions, he's just nine years old, just came from Marisol. It's really great. Cool.

Unknown Speaker (9:32): But his best moments are when the rhythms in perfect, right? You know, he thinks his way to play fast and, and have the dexterity to play amazing Best moments are when the rhythm is really on. So you set the metronome at 100 and he's like, No, let's do 200. I can do 200 now.

Unknown Speaker (9:46): Okay, that's cool. But his

Unknown Speaker (9:48): songs kind of muddled.

Unknown Speaker (9:50): But once you play

Jeffrey (9:51): same way, you gotta have that timing.

Unknown Speaker (9:54): Son's been playing a year and a half. I play some music, so I'm serious. I'll send you a song after this and you

Unknown Speaker (9:59): can right on.

Unknown Speaker (10:00): Because I'm not I'm not good enough to record my songs, but I have these two songs I wrote when I was in college. I still think they could be ads, man. Them our way, man. I I I can record rough versions, but they professionals.

Chris (10:10): No. We, we got, we, yeah, we, we know producers now. We know other musicians all around the world, man. We could totally, we could have an all star band.

Unknown Speaker (10:18): Nice. We're

Unknown Speaker (10:19): getting close to being able

Unknown Speaker (10:20): to put that together for, for Yeah. Super group. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (10:23): I Yeah. Was thinking this, the silence of comedians, because when, when I watch some of my, I, you know, I watch, if I do scroll now, it, it, my Instagram's filled with comedy, because of what I post.

Unknown Speaker (10:32): Of course.

Unknown Speaker (10:34): And so I'm seeing Norm MacDonald's popping up a lot, even Robin Williams, even Steven Wright, whatever. Obviously- Oh,

Unknown Speaker (10:40): I love Steven Wright, man. Me too, dude.

Unknown Speaker (10:42): Me too. He's the best. He's great. Actually, they're all great. I shouldn't say he's the best.

Unknown Speaker (10:45): Yeah. Oh, it's true.

Unknown Speaker (10:47): Yeah. And I've tried to take some of his things and adapt them to dad jokes. I can't remember offhand, but there have been a few out What are they driving on the driveway?

Unknown Speaker (10:56): Why do you park on the driveway and drive on the parkway? That's one of my favorite ones, it is.

Unknown Speaker (11:02): He's the one who also asked, why do you put the who put the alphabet in that order? Like, who decided A and then B and then C?

Unknown Speaker (11:08): That's a good one too?

Unknown Speaker (11:09): Yeah.

Chris (11:10): Yeah. Okay. My my my Steven Wright joke, there's a fine line between standing on the pier and fishing and looking like a total idiot. That one, that one just just

Unknown Speaker (11:23): yep. Like

Unknown Speaker (11:25): That's a that's a total like, yep.

Unknown Speaker (11:27): Yeah. Because he just walked off stage at that

Chris (11:29): point. And the and the and the way he delivers it is what sells it because you don't really have to think about it the way he delivers it because it's instantaneous.

Unknown Speaker (11:36): Yeah. And that's the silence. That's my point. You have to sort of build up to and because I started doing this and I'm just a guy who likes telling jokes to my friends. Right?

Unknown Speaker (11:44): Yeah. I think I think I have a, like, a ton of friends who are much funnier than me, who just like telling jokes. I just started doing the selfie stick. And then as I did it, you you see yourself over and over and you change, you know, you you start to

Unknown Speaker (11:57): Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (11:57): Oh, yeah. Sadly, I realized is I I developed a little bit of this persona where the stupider I am, the funnier I am, and maybe somehow that I suits don't know. Like maybe it's just something I didn't know about myself, but, yeah, it's interesting trying to build a, a personality to tell the jokes. And of course not every joke fits it.

Unknown Speaker (12:14): Okay. So that was one of my questions was how do you film those? So it's a selfie stick. You're walking around with a selfie stick?

Unknown Speaker (12:19): Yeah. So I live in Prague. That was gonna be one of my questions during

Unknown Speaker (12:22): the I was gonna ask you two where you're from. Yeah. Prague. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (12:25): Cool. Yeah. I'm living in Prague in The Czech Republic. I was gonna ask if you're, if you're live here or not. You said a 100 countries.

Unknown Speaker (12:31): So probably

Unknown Speaker (12:32): are Mike. Are we? We are in The Czech Republic

Chris (12:35): and we're gonna grow our viewers in The Czech Republic because Jeffrey's there. Yeah. That's awesome. It's it's a trip. Like whenever we have we had people we had a band in South Africa.

Chris (12:44): We were talking And then when their show dropped, we had a tick up in South Africa. Australia.

Unknown Speaker (12:48): When we talked to Peter.

Unknown Speaker (12:49): Oh, yeah. Yeah. Think because Right on.

Unknown Speaker (12:53): Man, that's so I had

Unknown Speaker (12:55): no idea.

Unknown Speaker (12:56): Come on, come visit.

Unknown Speaker (12:57): What connection. Dude, he's uploading like 99%

Unknown Speaker (12:59): I of know. The halfway That's amazing. Yeah. Tell us about Prague, man. I'm interested.

Chris (13:06): Me too. Educate us.

Unknown Speaker (13:09): Well, Prague's epic. I mean, it's stunning. So I came I'm American born, right? Was born in Chicago and grew up in the suburbs My of family moved a lot. Illinois.

Jeffrey (13:21): All from Illinois. I'm from downstate in Pontiac.

Unknown Speaker (13:23): I looked at the Osborne in Park Forest, Southern suburb of Chicago, then, but my moved a lot. Grew up in LA, Chicago, Minneapolis, lots of parts of California. But 1994, I graduated university in Northern California with theater arts degree.

Unknown Speaker (13:40): Nice.

Unknown Speaker (13:40): So what are you gonna do then? Right? It was either go to LA and try and become Norman Reedus, but I didn't know this I didn't know he would take my looks and become a millionaire, Right. Of

Unknown Speaker (13:50): Bastard. That's

Unknown Speaker (13:51): you should you should sue him. You should sue him, dude. You know? I'm thinking

Unknown Speaker (13:55): it really is like a it's like

Unknown Speaker (13:56): I had this face first.

Chris (13:57): Yeah. Yeah. It's like I shaved my head in '93 before anybody was shaving their head. Then Michael Stipe did it. And all of a sudden, like, it's this thing now.

Unknown Speaker (14:04): Like, I've always thought I should go after Michael Stipe. Like this was my idea, If

Unknown Speaker (14:08): you want to dance, you know, then I think you Yeah. Can do That was funny. I came to Prague in 1994 and I thought it would be for a year. I had no motivation or plans. Just came here to teach English, but man, I'm not the only one.

Unknown Speaker (14:24): You come to Prague for a year and I basically haven't left. Mean, it's just amazing Really? Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (14:29): Is it, what, is it, is

Unknown Speaker (14:31): it a,

Unknown Speaker (14:32): Go ahead, I'm not sure you're

Unknown Speaker (14:33): right away. No, no, no, no, go ahead. Sorry, sorry.

Unknown Speaker (14:35): No, I don't know where to begin. I mean, when I, when I came here in 1994, the, you know, sort of the end of, of Russia, and the Russian, let's call it empire for this conversation, although people are going to rip me apart for that when they hear

Unknown Speaker (14:48): it,

Unknown Speaker (14:49): was only five years earlier. So it was a country that was really exploring and discovering and finding itself, the people, and coming out of that sort of communist oppression to freedom, it was pretty wide open here. Mean, was really the wild There was a lot going on. It was exciting. And I was 22 years old.

Unknown Speaker (15:09): You could go buy a beer for 20¢, water cost you 50¢, so it was a pretty easy choice at that time. And dangerous for a 22 year old teaching English. Yeah, yeah. With a vague resemblance to Andrew McCarthy. But anyway, I just loved it.

Unknown Speaker (15:27): And then I went back to The States a couple times once to educate myself a little bit more on my future profession. I worked in VFX and post production.

Unknown Speaker (15:36): Cool.

Unknown Speaker (15:37): And other times just because it's a, I come from a pretty big family. I, you know, I love my brothers, my sister, my parents. So it's tricky decision to make to say you're going to spend your whole life thousands of miles away. Obviously, obviously it's different than it was couple hundred years ago when you'd never hear from the person again, but still it's a big difference. So, so I've been back and forth a bit, but never for more than a couple of years.

Unknown Speaker (15:58): Out of those thirty, geez, thirty two years now, geez, I'm dating myself. It's been twenty six, twenty seven of them have been here in Prague. And in terms of wouldn't? Personal life and what opportunities you have here, I wouldn't change it. Oh, I wouldn't go back.

Jeffrey (16:17): When you got there, Jeffrey, what was the first thing that you were like, I mean, this sounds like it was an instant life changing experience. So like off the top of your head, what was the first thing that attracted you other than everything was super affordable?

Unknown Speaker (16:31): Yeah. 20¢ beer. Well,

Unknown Speaker (16:34): there's three answers to these, and two of them are a little bit pubescent, but one's the beer, two's the women I was meeting all the time here.

Unknown Speaker (16:42): Fantastic.

Unknown Speaker (16:45): It's, yeah, we don't have to go there. Don't want to get myself in trouble. And three is, to this day, if I have a, and I'm lucky, I live relatively close to the center of Prague, if I have a free day and I can go for a walk through the middle of the city, it's like a fairy tale. Mean, have to come here to see it. It's just, it's epically beautiful.

Unknown Speaker (17:06): And growing up in America where we don't have a lot of old stuff, you know? Coming here and I go walk across this famous bridge that's from the, you know, the 1340s still standing. And it's, you just feel like you're walking through a different time and a different era. I never really got over that. Like, I just love it.

Unknown Speaker (17:25): I love that part of it.

Jeffrey (17:27): Now have you been teaching the whole time you've been over there?

Unknown Speaker (17:29): Oh, no. No. So I taught I taught English with 60,000 other Americans in the mid nineteen nineties in Prague, by way. I mean, was there was a flood of expats here. It's a city of now I don't I think 1,200,000.

Unknown Speaker (17:40): I'm not sure that's what it's been around. And there were 60,000 Americans living here officially in the mid nineties. Was one of many thousands of English teachers. Really pushed to up their level of English and to improve it. So I did that for a year.

Unknown Speaker (17:54): I started the second year, then I decided, okay, I need to, I don't know, it's fine, it's a nice job, there's no disrespect, but as I said, I'm not really that stand up in front of people. I didn't get that side of it that much enjoyment or anything. So I decided to get into three d animation and making

Unknown Speaker (18:10): Oh, sweet.

Unknown Speaker (18:11): Very awesome. Making that's Old Town Square in the middle of Prague. And that's great. If you look at my jokes, I do a lot of jokes walking through Prague. So you see different parts of Prague as I as I walk around.

Chris (18:23): Well, that's what I gonna that's what I gonna ask you because I watch your stuff. So the backgrounds are always really, really epic. So that was one thing I was gonna ask you. One of our conversations in the past, you when we were trying to schedule, had just got back from London or something and the timing was skewed. I was like, oh, maybe he's in London.

Chris (18:41): Obviously, I have a little bit of an accent. Beautiful.

Unknown Speaker (18:45): I get that accent comment a lot. I go back, whenever I go back to The States, people ask me what's up with my snobbish European accent, but I think you just, I think you just adapt to the people around you. That the level of English, if you're in Prague right now, the level of English is fluid. But when I came here in the mid nineties, obviously it was different and you, you change, I didn't speak Czech then, but you change your rhythm and you try, you want people to understand you.

Unknown Speaker (19:07): Then,

Unknown Speaker (19:07): oh, you change How many languages do you speak now, Jeffrey?

Unknown Speaker (19:09): Just two. I studied Spanish, which, made for a lot of good jokes on the Instagram, but, I think I, I joked that every everything I learned in in Czech, I lost a word in Spanish. So now it might be negative words that I speak in Spanish.

Chris (19:23): Wow. My wife would love these churches, man.

Jeffrey (19:27): Do you write in Czech and read in Czech too or just speak it?

Unknown Speaker (19:30): Yeah. No. I I can write, read, speak, but it's I don't know how many Czech people I know are listening. It's it's obvious I'm not Czech. Know?

Unknown Speaker (19:38): I'm like that. It's like Bruce Willis' girlfriend in Pulp Fiction, I think, little bit probably. Yeah. Exactly. Accent.

Unknown Speaker (19:44): And I think I'm great, but I, you know, I'll go into a store and I'll say something and check and the people respond in English. I'm like, come on. I thought I was doing pretty good. And their English can be really bad and they still do that. So I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (19:57): Yeah. But anyway, If you haven't been, don't miss

Unknown Speaker (20:02): it. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (20:03): Everyone listening this epiciguavel city and I'll take you out for a beer if you come.

Unknown Speaker (20:09): I I absolutely well, I don't drink, but I'll go out. You can take me out for water and my wife can drink. My wife will drink a beer We've with got lots

Unknown Speaker (20:16): of Cool. Options

Chris (20:18): So is Prague a democracy? It's part of my ignorance. Democrat? Is Okay. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (20:24): Mean, Yeah. Without getting into world politics, a lot of countries are obviously going through some difficult times and bad fighting, let's say, to keep democracy. Czech Republic would definitely label itself a democracy, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (20:35): Okay. Yeah, wasn't sure. I mean, you know, I just was curious.

Unknown Speaker (20:39): No. I mean, it's a huge world and this is a small country. It's 10,000,000 people, right? So how many people know much about a 10,000,000 person country when you live in The US or wherever? Yeah.

Jeffrey (20:50): Right. Well, you just mentioned something that's the outside influence. How much outside influence do you feel like there is in the Czech Republic right now from maybe Russia or, you know, somebody that wants that back?

Unknown Speaker (21:05): Yeah. That's a tricky look, there's nerves there are people here who are nervous. Nice.

Unknown Speaker (21:11): Okay.

Unknown Speaker (21:12): Oh my god, that's I posted that an hour ago, guys.

Unknown Speaker (21:14): You're quick.

Unknown Speaker (21:15): I know. I know. I know. We're good, man. We're good.

Unknown Speaker (21:18): Before I posted it, I had to write a good friend of mine, I'm like, is this too silly? And he said, No, there's no such thing as too silly. Just go for it. It's

Chris (21:26): okay. After you finish your statement, we'll watch this one.

Unknown Speaker (21:29): And Yeah, if you answer very my

Unknown Speaker (21:29): next question.

Unknown Speaker (21:31): So, I mean, there are nerves here that, and they're understandable, there's a big history, right? The Czech Republic and Czechoslovakia, it became the Czech Republic in 'ninety three. Before that, it was Czechoslovakia. And they have a history of sort of being, in their view, betrayed to the world, right? Sort of sold out after the Munich conference after World War II, sort of given to the Russians instead of being protected in some way.

Unknown Speaker (21:56): That's not a new history for them. So there's not a lot of trust of other people. And least of all, I think Russia. Gotcha. So there's not a feeling here that, you know, if Russia were to successfully overtake Ukraine, people in Central And Eastern Europe are certainly-

Unknown Speaker (22:14): Our word.

Unknown Speaker (22:14): Even- Okay. That's why I question. There's a camaraderie with Ukraine. That's one thing. But there's also even worry that where does it end?

Unknown Speaker (22:22): Gotcha.

Unknown Speaker (22:22): For sure. Alright. Here we go.

Chris (22:24): Here's a little here's a little tidbit of Jeffrey, the walking the walking dad jokesman.

Unknown Speaker (22:28): You know, the Navy SEALs. Right? These guys are amazing. I this is famous quote by a SEAL that I've been carrying with me for a long time. It he said said, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Oh.

Unknown Speaker (22:46): Oh. Know, the Navy SEALs. God. See,

Unknown Speaker (22:50): that's the way I've said

Unknown Speaker (22:51): this. Known. But Not everyone's gonna know what a Navy SEAL is. But yeah.

Unknown Speaker (22:55): Right. But that's

Unknown Speaker (22:56): the this girlfriend, she,

Unknown Speaker (22:58): she broke up with me, and she told all of our

Unknown Speaker (22:59): friends it was because my penis was too small.

Unknown Speaker (23:03): Friends were all surprised I wasn't more upset,

Unknown Speaker (23:05): but I was like, just wasn't that into her. Years ago,

Unknown Speaker (23:10): I had this

Unknown Speaker (23:10): girl and the award for most secretive personal in my office. I can't tell you guys what this

Unknown Speaker (23:17): means. Dude.

Unknown Speaker (23:18): Give me a word for most secretive personal in my office. It was like, I can't tell you guys what this means to me. Give me a

Unknown Speaker (23:26): I was upset. She said, so I put my son's shoes on the wrong feet. I was

Unknown Speaker (23:31): like, come on. He doesn't have any other feet. My wife was upset. She said

Unknown Speaker (23:38): just after our first son was born

Unknown Speaker (23:40): in the Delivery Room, my wife, she said she said she knew she wanted another baby. I knew it too. So I went in the hospital that night, I swapped him.

Unknown Speaker (23:54): I hope my son's not listening to that. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (23:58): Would hope knowing you, he would know that that's a joke for sure, man. Those are hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (24:08): Yeah, my son has, So I'll cut to the chase on this one because everyone will bug me if I don't say it.

Unknown Speaker (24:14): I'm sorry.

Unknown Speaker (24:15): Love the dad joke so much that when my son was born and my wife and I had a baby pretty quickly. So we're in the hospital room. When you're in the hospital, they tell you, you have to write the name before the baby's born in the Jecro book. You write boy and girl name on the sheet, even They if you know the want to know the name in advance. Course, we'd been talking about it, but he was born five weeks early, so it was a little bit early and unexpected.

Unknown Speaker (24:41): But I insisted, or I, you know, I'm like, okay, look, we don't know each other that well to my girlfriend then. Mean, you know, I'd known her ten months. We don't know each other that well, but I really want to go with the name Justin. And the point of that is my last name by birth is actually Case. So I insisted that I think Justin

Unknown Speaker (25:03): Case Justin would be a great name Case. For

Unknown Speaker (25:06): Love So

Unknown Speaker (25:08): he is named Justin. My wife agreed, and she still seems to love me as far as I can tell. So the point is Justin definitely knows what kind of sense of I mean, we live in the Czech Republic, remember, right? So most of his classmates don't speak fluent English. The teachers get it, the adults get it.

Unknown Speaker (25:24): They're caught, once in a while someone comes in like, did you know that his name, of course we know, like.

Unknown Speaker (25:28): Yeah. Yeah.

Jeffrey (25:30): I actually planned it that way. That's awesome. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (25:33): That's- Surprise.

Unknown Speaker (25:34): That's awesome. That's awesome.

Unknown Speaker (25:37): And then, yeah, those clips, man. I, it's a daily thing on Instagram to think what should you post because now that it's gotten a little bit popular, friends watch it. And, and one of my, one of my colleagues, I hope she watches this one day, her daughter watches it. I think she's 11 years old. So I post jokes like the one about the penis and I'm like,

Unknown Speaker (25:56): Oh, I can't

Unknown Speaker (25:56): believe an 11 year old girl's going watch this. Feel a little bit self conscious. Course, not, not my decision, but yeah.

Chris (26:02): Right. Right. Now, how do you come up with them? Because they're clever and they're always different. Is it so They're not.

Unknown Speaker (26:08): Obviously, a great majority of them are things I've heard along the line, along the way. Then I try and sort of tweak them to list character. And then what I'm finding, and I enjoy it because I like to think I'm a greedy person, is I'm making up more and more along the way. Because I'm realizing that all of these times in your life when someone says something and you have a funny answer, most of those can be turned into a joke in some way or another if you just give it a little sort of thought. Right?

Unknown Speaker (26:36): Yeah. Whatever, you paint the scenario, the buildup, the misdirection, and then the redirection back and the payoff, whatever it is. But most of the times when we think we're seeing something funny, there's potential to turn it into a joke. So that happens too. But a lot of them are adapted, and I wish I could, like I love Norm MacDonald and I wish I could tell his jokes, but most of them are too long, and that's the, as you said, they're like, what's the, you know, I think I posted a fifty nine second joke a year ago and it ended up doing pretty well, but not in the first couple weeks.

Unknown Speaker (27:07): Like it took people a while to go back to it.

Jeffrey (27:10): That's a different kind of humor too. You know, I think you sell yourself short sometimes because you think you're telling what, you know, the world would call stupid jokes, right? But those are near and dear to everyone's heart because most of the time, like you said, you mentioned one that might be potentially, you know, you got the word penis in there, but for the most part, they're clean jokes that are still funny to adults, but they're also funny to children too. Right?

Unknown Speaker (27:37): Yeah.

Jeffrey (27:37): Well, you yeah. Can tell a joke that's subliminal that's still clean. You know? There's no bad language in there. It might be only funny to an adult, kid's gonna go, I don't get it.

Unknown Speaker (27:48): You watch kids' cartoons and there's always the innuendos hidden away, right?

Unknown Speaker (27:52): Cartoons that we grew up on as kids was full of adult humor. Yeah.

Chris (27:57): I remember seeing one where Tom and Jerry, Tom had this donut or something and he was teasing Jerry with it. Jerry was licking the tip of the donut. I remember And then Tom and then Tom squeezed it and it it covers it covers Jerry the mouse with white cream.

Unknown Speaker (28:11): Yep. Really? They couldn't have chose raspberry.

Chris (28:17): Right? No. It's like you know? And let's be honest. My wife my wife teaches sixth grade, Jeffrey, and sixth graders, whether they're 11, 12 years old, they know what a penis is.

Chris (28:28): At least in America, at least in in

Unknown Speaker (28:30): our Well, for sure nowadays with the Internet and yeah. Absolutely. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (28:34): And they do either too. I mean, the problem is I I love those adult jokes. I just there's no way to separate. You know? I mean, I have kids too.

Unknown Speaker (28:40): I don't want them to hear every joke I would tell. There are some jokes that definitely cross lines. Like, sometimes I asked once at GPD, I'm like, can I publish that joke? And it said, no. You'll be banned from the Internet.

Unknown Speaker (28:51): Like, don't and he didn't know

Unknown Speaker (28:53): it was gonna be

Jeffrey (28:53): in the mind. That was gonna be my point, Jeffrey. I love, and Chris does too, we love what we both call gallows humor, right?

Unknown Speaker (29:01): Yeah.

Jeffrey (29:01): Just horrible jokes that Your average person, you know, like your Sunday church goers are gonna go, oh my god. I can't believe you think that's funny. I also find your humor equally as funny, right? We were both, Chris was crying. I was too.

Unknown Speaker (29:15): Had tears coming out of my eyes watching those. I can

Unknown Speaker (29:20): Thank see you for why that reaction. That was nice to see.

Chris (29:22): Appreciate And see, and the other reason why we do what we do the way we do it is everything. All our reactions are genuine. Now, I guess I followed you on Instagram and Facebook. Right. But conversationally, the reason why we don't, I don't read the biographies that people send us, Mike does when they register for the show because I want everything genuine.

Chris (29:39): I want the reactions to So be when I was running a show called Good News Arizona, I wrote the script for every episode. My partner was a straight laced Mormon guy who never swore, who was like literally the, you looked up Mormon, Dean was that guy in the dictionary. So some of the stuff that he, I had him reading, he didn't realize he was reading until we sat down at the table and it was recording. So his reaction reactions were genuine where he would start reading something. He couldn't say it because he started laughing so hard because he knew this was three and six degrees away from who he really was as a human.

Chris (30:11): But it made it that much more funny, which made the show that much more popular because it was a genuine reaction And everybody knew who he was and who I was and our difference of of, you know, just who we were as humans. It just made that much funnier. So the reason why I pulled your jokes up like that just really at random is because I want people to see the real reaction because your shit's funny, man. And I know that's not all I know that's not what all you're about, but you haven't gone and done this for stand up or anything?

Unknown Speaker (30:39): Never. Never in my life.

Unknown Speaker (30:40): No. Never.

Unknown Speaker (30:41): Never. It's funny that you know said Not really. So I, in the early days I got this follower who I, once in a while some people, like my daughter who's now 19, just turned. She was super excited because Duff McGeegan started following me on Instagram.

Unknown Speaker (30:56): Oh, that's so cool.

Unknown Speaker (30:57): And he and I think he reshared a couple of jokes or something. My daughter

Unknown Speaker (31:00): That's even cool.

Unknown Speaker (31:01): And all of her friends. To my surprise, they're in the Guns N' Roses right now. Right? But to my surprise, she knew everything about him. And I'm like, don't even know that much about

Jeffrey (31:09): But That just proves my point. Somebody that you would think or the world you know, I wouldn't think because I know a million musicians. You know, we're all just people too. Right? Mhmm.

Jeffrey (31:17): He he finds that just as funny as Chris and I. I mean Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (31:21): Yeah. Absolutely. Yeah. No.

Jeffrey (31:22): He probably has the same gallows sense of humor where he's gonna go watch Joey Diaz, but he's gonna if you were a stand up comedian, he would go watch you too as would I, as would Chris.

Unknown Speaker (31:33): I would. I'm starting I'm starting a a online one where I can do more of the gowls, humor things on this platform. It's it's Czech run originally, it's, yeah, it's banned in The US called Hero Hero, and I'll I'll share information about it at some point. But This we're just keeping

Unknown Speaker (31:46): it up.

Unknown Speaker (31:47): Because because there's jokes I can't tell on Instagram that I think I almost agree with anything can be made a joke of. I'm not quite there, but I'm at the 98% range. Certainly there's a lot of jokes that you, I don't want my colleague's kid to see, but I would like to share in other ways. Sure. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (32:03): So

Chris (32:03): Now does, does, does your jokes translate into the Czech language?

Unknown Speaker (32:08): You know, that's a great question. Fiftyfifty. So there's jokes like, so this Spanish joke, so I had these jokes that got really popular that all of a sudden boosted my popularity. And this joke in Spanish was when I speak to Spanish people, I like to use the word mucho because it means a lot to them. And I thought it was just when I recorded it, was in Spain, so I had a nice background walking through a square in Malaga.

Unknown Speaker (32:37): I kind of, when I published it, just thought it was kind of a throwaway between like the more funny, more slightly more adult jokes. I don't know. It's four and a half million views or something on Instagram on that joke or something. And so it totally surprises.

Chris (32:50): You need to, need to meta verify yourself. I think that's what you're saying is go, go, go to the meta.

Unknown Speaker (32:57): Is it worth it? I saw the posting of that. I don't know much about it. Yeah.

Chris (33:00): I get, I don't make, I'm meta verified and I get probably $10 a month and I don't do, I'm not getting near and just my personal shit. I'm not getting near the stuff you're getting. So go do that. You'll be surprised. Is there open mic?

Chris (33:14): Yeah, there go ahead. Go ahead.

Unknown Speaker (33:16): No, no. I was going to ask. So that's across everything to do with Meta. So Facebook, Instagram or whatever or okay?

Chris (33:21): Yep. They'll just pay you. Because what it is, is what it is like your four and a half million views of the MUCHO joke. Okay. So they populate that in for Ray Everyday Viewer, right, in the algorithms?

Chris (33:32): Yeah. And then right after it, there's a commercial. Then it says the next reel, the next reel, continues after this commercial and then your next reel would pop up.

Unknown Speaker (33:43): Yep.

Chris (33:43): So they're placing advertisements between your reels because you have the followers. So go do that on both your channels and then you'll start getting they'll ask you for all your information and details and you'll start getting money for that. Rightfully so. Mean, you have four and a half million viewers on stuff.

Unknown Speaker (33:58): Yeah, you should be getting some lot of it. Absolutely.

Unknown Speaker (34:00): There's been like four or five jokes that got that and I never would have guessed it on any of them, but Right. So you never know. That's the point I guess, but anyway, no harm in activating it.

Chris (34:09): Yeah. So go do that. Is there is there in in in The Czech Republic, are there are there bars for like open mic and stuff?

Unknown Speaker (34:17): There are. Of course they're Czech. I mean, asked about the Czech side. So Yeah. Again, I speak Czech like a foreigner in that I some people tell me in a in a cute way.

Unknown Speaker (34:26): A friend of my wife, who lives outside of Prague, said, look, you should you should do the Czech version of these jokes. Like most people in Prague, you meet foreigners who speak Czech. Outside of Prague, you don't, you know? Like you don't meet people who speak Czech and who speak, you know, people from Czech Republic, in Bakersfield kind of thing, right? So maybe you do, but I'm trying to make a throwaway there.

Unknown Speaker (34:47): Anyways, said, look, outside of Prague, don't meet people like you. You speak Czech, it's quite cute in a way. And so tell the jokes in Czech with your accent and give it a shot. And so then I did, I took it and I looked at, I think a 100 random jokes and thought how many could these translate. And it's pretty clear, right?

Unknown Speaker (35:07): I mean, if it's a double meaning in English, it's tricky. Sometimes you can make up an alternate double meaning, but not usually. So but if it's a story humor, if it's a misunderstanding humor, not based on language, it works. It's about fiftyfifty is the long

Unknown Speaker (35:21): story short.

Jeffrey (35:22): Do they have the same sense of humor? I mean, they gonna get all these jokes?

Unknown Speaker (35:28): Czechs have a really dark sense of humor. They'll prefer the gal gal's jokes. I mean, my wife might not laugh at my jokes, but Czechs have a really dark, dark and long extreme dark sense. Dries.

Chris (35:38): But see spouses, those are married to creative people. They live our creativity. Wife helped me. She was kind of the I was bouncing ideas off for the last book I wrote, and she's in the book and we had adventures in the book, but she's never read the book and people give her shit for never reading the book. But she was with me when I wrote the book.

Unknown Speaker (35:58): Yeah.

Chris (35:58): So it's it's that thing. Like, when I was in my band, she was with me when I was in the bands. So, of course, she's not buying the CD and shit because

Unknown Speaker (36:04): Yeah.

Chris (36:05): She had listened to that shit a thousand times. Like, she's tired of that shit. So but I so I feel you. What I was gonna suggest next time you go to The States, if you think about it, especially if you go back to to Chicago, you should go do one of those open mic improv nights because you have five, ten minutes to do jokes. I would be really, really interested to find out how the crowd takes you.

Chris (36:28): Oh, Right? Because I think you're funny as hell. I think

Unknown Speaker (36:32): that You would would be kill. That would

Unknown Speaker (36:33): be And you so

Unknown Speaker (36:34): And here's why

Unknown Speaker (36:35): say that, Jeffrey. Go. Real quick. Here's why I say that.

Unknown Speaker (36:39): Yeah.

Jeffrey (36:39): When it comes to comedians, I am the most critical person you are ever going to meet. Music, as long as it has a good beat and it's in key, I can tolerate it. Right? Because I've been a musician my whole That's what spoke to me. That's my peace in life.

Jeffrey (36:56): But I love comedy just short of how much I love music, but I am hypercritical of it. You better And be when Chris told me about you and I started checking out your channel, I was instantly hooked. Like, I probably watched 20 of your videos right in a row. You're funny, dude.

Chris (37:14): Thanks, man. That's really scary. The cool the coolest thing about your approach is you don't have to think even though you have to think. Exactly.

Unknown Speaker (37:23): You know what

Unknown Speaker (37:23): I mean? Yeah. So so I'm gonna equate it to this, the office. You can turn on the office, and you can shut your brain off and have fun. You can waste

Jeffrey (37:29): the And you're still laughing your ass off.

Chris (37:30): You can waste ninety minutes of your day evening. You have a shitty day. You wanna come home and just shut your brain off and just zone out. Put her

Unknown Speaker (37:35): in the

Chris (37:35): office, and it's just it's just funny as hell. Not that I'm zoning out when I'm watching you, but when your stuff comes up, we all get stuff in algorithms. Right? It's easy

Unknown Speaker (37:44): to digest.

Chris (37:45): Right. We all get stuff force fed us through the Facebooks and the Instagrams now. The difference is when your shit comes up, I don't mean shit in a bad way. When your when your comedy comes up

Unknown Speaker (37:55): Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (37:55): I go to the next reel and I go to the next reel and I go to the next reel.

Unknown Speaker (37:59): That's why I'm four five easy to digest.

Chris (38:01): I'm four or five reels deep into your jokes before like, okay, next.

Jeffrey (38:05): Where anybody else's page, you might just watch the one reel and then you're onto somebody else's page.

Chris (38:11): Right. Your ears is easy to get stuck on. Right. Like Jack Osborne came on about something and I watched one of, I watched his thing and that was it. Cause okay, all right, Rich Jack, whatever.

Chris (38:19): That's most reels. Right. Most people don't go down the rabbit hole. People are gonna go down the rabbit hole with you just for the sheer fact that you're funny, you're clever, and it's it's innuendo jokes, but they're relevant because they're dad jokes. You you you your face is recognizable even though I didn't I didn't remember I didn't put the two and two together till today.

Chris (38:40): But Yeah. Just we're gonna go down the rabbit hole again, man, because why not?

Unknown Speaker (38:45): Just after our first son was born delivering on

Unknown Speaker (38:47): my wife's That one was the

Unknown Speaker (38:48): last one. Yeah. When

Unknown Speaker (38:50): she wanted another baby. I knew it too. So I went into the hospital that night and I swapped it. Poor Justin. He said said, what are my options, dad?

Unknown Speaker (39:02): I was like, yes or no? I asked him. He's walking around dog and I

Unknown Speaker (39:14): thought Look behind the mic.

Unknown Speaker (39:16): So there's one that was made up walking around, obviously. Right? That wasn't preplanned. It was just something that came up on. You're walking around and it released the Kafka Museum here, obviously, because Kafka

Unknown Speaker (39:25): That was awesome.

Unknown Speaker (39:26): So My granny's on good birthday. We asked her what her doctor says about Almera. Bad habits, eating fat, drinking vodka. She said, well, my doctor died forty years ago.

Unknown Speaker (39:38): And that that's actually that's a true story. Like but it's just a family legendary family moment. And so you just share it because it's funny. Right? Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (39:48): This this is the one you just did the other day, which I thought was hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (39:51): This one? I can go to

Unknown Speaker (39:52): the store

Unknown Speaker (39:53): with just 50¢, and I could come home with my pocket full of candy and soft drinks and stuff. It's amazing. Kids these days, though, I mean, they've got cameras everywhere. And that was a kid friend of mine, Matthew. He's totally obsessed with boxing and boxers, and I swear it's a it's Molly talks about

Unknown Speaker (40:13): That one came from a fan. Actually, I agreed to post it. A fan a fan wrote me that joke. His name's Matthew. I don't know Matthew.

Unknown Speaker (40:20): Maybe he'll watch this one. Shout out to Matthew. And I just thought, okay. It's cute. Let's let's

Unknown Speaker (40:25): give him a managing a

Unknown Speaker (40:26): That's awesome.

Unknown Speaker (40:28): And I get a lot of those. I get jokes

Unknown Speaker (40:30): Fresh shot was managing a friend came in. It was really crowded, so I asked her if she could wait a bit. She said, sure. So I was like, great. Can you bring this food to Table 3?

Unknown Speaker (40:42): I love that.

Unknown Speaker (40:43): I gotta keep you guys as my audience. I mean, you're the best guy I've got.

Unknown Speaker (40:46): So They're funny, man. I don't care who you are. They're funny.

Unknown Speaker (40:49): Oh, shit. This is gonna be a funny one. Can just I already tell.

Unknown Speaker (40:54): I mean, met when

Unknown Speaker (40:54): I said I'm

Mike (40:55): go back to the bedroom, and the prince, he admits to the princess that he's never done this before. And asked if she can help. She says, of course. She says, okay, what do I do? She says, well, you start by undressing us.

Mike (41:08): So he takes off her dress, takes off his clothes. What now? She says, well, now maybe you could put your hand on my belly, rub my belly, tell me you love me. So he puts his hand on her belly, starts rubbing her belly and says, I love you. What now?

Mike (41:26): And she says, well, maybe you could try a little lower. He says, I love you. It's funny they all

Unknown Speaker (41:39): come from different places.

Unknown Speaker (41:41): And I knew that was coming and it's still there.

Unknown Speaker (41:44): But see, didn't know

Unknown Speaker (41:45): it was coming.

Unknown Speaker (41:46): You musicians obviously should pick up on that one, right? The bass is coming in, right?

Chris (41:50): Right. But see, didn't, that would, I wasn't, I didn't even go there. Wasn't even thinking that I going do that. Cause I mean, stuff is so random that I

Unknown Speaker (41:56): get But it someone still dance got

Unknown Speaker (41:57): with me, man.

Unknown Speaker (41:58): I laughed my ass Right. Off Right. It's your timing, dude. We talked about it early. You have perfect pregnant pauses.

Unknown Speaker (42:04): It's funny in that, in that joke, that last one, I was really not happy with the recording. When I go out, I take the selfie stick, I walk around, in that case with the, with the Prince and Princess, I'm like, I'm walking around the castle, let's tell a joke about a Prince and a Princess. Yeah, because I, you know, I have this, I brought it, I have this Excel sheet that I print with like 700 jokes that I you know, I'm building it every day. And I'm like, I'll tell the princess joke. Haven't talked about that in a long time.

Unknown Speaker (42:28): And then when I watched the videos back and I recorded it like three times and I just wasn't happy with any of them. And there was a really specific reason, which was I always feel like it should be where the prince is saying, you know, the prince does this, okay, okay, what next? And it should be like, somehow he should accentuate the monotone cluelessness and stupidity of this guy, and then somehow that makes the payoff even better. I just wasn't happy. I'm like, forget it.

Unknown Speaker (42:53): Let's just put it out there and see what happens.

Jeffrey (42:54): Yeah. That's the artist in you, but the you did the right thing. So I'm trying to think of the best way to put this because Chris would admit we suffer from the same thing as musicians. I just got asked the other day, how do you know when a song's done? You don't.

Jeffrey (43:10): You just decide it's done. And we, as musicians, to this day, if we recorded something thirty years ago, there's still things you hear that you're like, damn.

Unknown Speaker (43:20): Know? I've heard that. Yeah. I read a John Lennon interview where he said he would love to go back and re record almost everything, right?

Jeffrey (43:26): Eddie Van Halen, one of the most famous solos ever recorded in Eruption. He said there's a mistake at the top of it. He said that for years, nobody can hear it but him.

Unknown Speaker (43:36): I mean, my nine year old makes a lot of mistakes on piano. Like, Justin, nobody else hears it but you and your piano teacher.

Unknown Speaker (43:44): But my point heard

Unknown Speaker (43:45): the song a 100 times. Yeah.

Jeffrey (43:46): You gotta put it out. If you don't put it out there, the world never sees it. And obviously the world loves what you're doing because you're just getting more popular all the time. So just keep putting it out there, man. Wouldn't have never known you were unhappy with that.

Unknown Speaker (44:01): Not gonna I'm tell you this next joke is true, but yeah.

Chris (44:03): Okay. So, but, but the reason I pulled this up while you guys are talking, I went down the rabbit hole of your reels. This one's like 200,000 views.

Mike (44:09): It's my wife. Why she doesn't tell me when she orgasms. She's so sweet. She said, I don't like to bother you when you're at work.

Unknown Speaker (44:20): I mean, we've been we've been together ten years. So yeah. That

Unknown Speaker (44:29): was

Unknown Speaker (44:32): bless her. My wife is my muse, so bless her to the moon and back. A little bit I joke about her not liking my jokes. It's true, she doesn't like half of my jokes, but, you know, there's also she's Czech, she speaks excellent English, but yeah. Or maybe I'm just not funny.

Unknown Speaker (44:47): We had, we we had, not everybody. Yeah, go ahead, Mike. Go ahead, Mike.

Unknown Speaker (44:50): No, not everybody has the same sense of humor. Mm-mm.

Unknown Speaker (44:53): Yeah. Yeah, I guess.

Jeffrey (44:54): You know, Chris and I are gonna laugh at things that, believe me, 95% of the world is gonna look at us and go, you guys are sick fucks.

Unknown Speaker (45:02): That's why you're laughing at all the jokes. No, I'm just kidding.

Unknown Speaker (45:05): We have the No, but the flip side of that is we're gonna laugh at some of the most innocent things too. You know, things that hardcore people would be like, oh, I can't believe you think that's funny because it's funny, man. Yeah. You know? Jim Gaffigan.

Unknown Speaker (45:19): He's one of the most clean comedians on the planet. He's hilarious. I love his comedy. I watch every one of his specials. But I also watch Joey Diaz, who not many people are gonna get his humor.

Jeffrey (45:30): You know? Pretty crude.

Unknown Speaker (45:32): I don't even know that one. I'm gonna look that up. Joey Diaz. Okay.

Unknown Speaker (45:35): He's hilarious.

Chris (45:36): Now, do you have a YouTube channel?

Unknown Speaker (45:38): I didn't put it on YouTube. Look, at the beginning I was checking followers every day and now I'm not. YouTube has not taken off in any way. The number of like followers I is in the don't know how many it is, but it's in the hundreds. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (45:51): YouTube's weird TikTok

Unknown Speaker (45:53): and Facebook are in the, I don't know, eight, twelve, 15,000 range, but to be fair, three of those I started within, I think within the last year or less. So Instagram's longer running one.

Chris (46:06): So check this out. This one has 525,000 views. Okay. That's 525,000 views. That's awesome.

Unknown Speaker (46:14): My grandpa used to say whenever one door closes, another door opens. He was a great man, but a terrible cabinet. Now I know why that

Unknown Speaker (46:24): should have five twenty five million

Unknown Speaker (46:26): dollars And I didn't, but I didn't think it was that funny. I mean, I don't know. I mean, it was amusing. Yes. Otherwise I wouldn't record it,

Unknown Speaker (46:36): but yeah.

Unknown Speaker (46:38): A lot

Unknown Speaker (46:38): of it is your delivery though. Would you not agree with that, Chris?

Unknown Speaker (46:42): Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. This one, this next one- Maybe if

Jeffrey (46:45): I'm telling that joke, it gets five views instead of 500,000.

Chris (46:49): Next one I'm gonna share has 562,000. 562,000 views.

Mike (46:56): I was scared because my wife, she sent me a message and said she wanted to end our relationship. And it didn't matter how amazing I am in bed every time. She just wasn't enough reason to keep doing this. I was like, Jesus. I was terrified.

Mike (47:09): But then, then she sent me another message and said it

Unknown Speaker (47:12): was just a wrong number.

Unknown Speaker (47:16): That was my introduction to you, Jeffrey. That's the first one. That was the first one I ever saw. I even told my wife because I thought it was so funny. She just comes at me like, really?

Unknown Speaker (47:26): I'm like, you don't get it. It's hilarious.

Unknown Speaker (47:28): The, and that one's not that short, right? I mean, the Instagram sweet spot supposed to be seven to eleven seconds. That one's a bit longer. Yeah. But I love that joke.

Unknown Speaker (47:35): I think it's a great joke. Yeah. It's just brilliant. The setup of it. So

Unknown Speaker (47:39): Well, yeah. Because but as as you as you as you read through it, I remembered it right then and there like, oh, yeah. That was the one. That was the one that that just that that it. That's what opened the door.

Unknown Speaker (47:51): Because that was just funny, man. Yeah. It was just funny.

Unknown Speaker (47:54): Okay. Well, I've got two, two good fans here. So

Unknown Speaker (47:57): Damn right. Yeah. Yeah, buddy. This is cool. Yeah.

Chris (48:01): If you, if, yeah, boys and girls, if you don't, I'm gonna share this. If you don't, if don't know who we're talking about, you know, here's here's the here's his main page on Facebook. Just go there. Walking dad jokes. We need to get you a cover photo, man.

Chris (48:16): We need to get you a

Unknown Speaker (48:17): Facebook Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (48:18): I can I can can help you with that, brother?

Unknown Speaker (48:21): Open to ideas as Yeah.

Chris (48:23): That's that's the walking dad. So I'll I'll help you with that over the next few days. I'll send you something. You can take a look at it.

Unknown Speaker (48:28): That would be amazing.

Unknown Speaker (48:29): And and you can decide if you wanna use it or not. But yeah. So there's there's yeah. Go ahead, Michael.

Unknown Speaker (48:33): You know who he looks like in in that photo right there? Pull that one back up again. Now he almost looks like Robert Trujillo from Metallica. Oh, yes. He does.

Jeffrey (48:43): It's the

Unknown Speaker (48:43): angle That's a new one.

Unknown Speaker (48:44): And the hairs. Okay. So we're gonna have him come back on as the dude from Walking Dead, and we're gonna have him come back on as Robert Trujillo, and then we're just Yeah, gotta gonna come about back

Unknown Speaker (48:53): on as Daryl Dixon, and then you gotta come back

Unknown Speaker (48:56): on as Robert Trujillo. Just gonna mess up everybody.

Unknown Speaker (48:59): Obviously, know, because I work in film and post production. Was at Berlin Film Festival a year ago, and I was talking to this producer, and she and she heard about the Instagram. She's like, but you don't look anything like Norman. He's my buddy. Norman's, like, this big.

Unknown Speaker (49:12): And apparently, he's not a very tall guy. And I'm

Unknown Speaker (49:14): like Yeah. No. He's not.

Unknown Speaker (49:15): It's all perspective. Right? If you only see someone on television, then then you only see me on television. And then to be fair, my kids, when when my kids first started seeing pictures of Norman Reedus, they thought it was me. So it isn't, you know, they they didn't they didn't they couldn't tell.

Unknown Speaker (49:30): And obviously, now they know that there's

Chris (49:31): Well, it's it's no different than, like, when you when you watch sports on TV. Right? You can't tell watching the NBA that the guys are seven feet tall. You can't tell in football those guys are six, eight. You can't tell.

Jeffrey (49:40): Because everybody else around them is the same size. And then you stand next to them. I told Chris, I stood next to an NFL offensive lineman about two years ago, and it was like looking at a cartoon, man. You can't believe how big these people are. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (49:56): Yeah. Hand

Jeffrey (49:58): my hand disappeared in his. It was like

Unknown Speaker (50:00): Even some I used to run into some baseball players when I spent a couple years in Minneapolis and I worked at a company and the owners owned the Minnesota Twins. So I used to meet some people at company functions. Man, those guys are big too. You're like, It's baseball. They don't have to be big, but they're still big.

Unknown Speaker (50:13): Like, they're

Chris (50:13): just Oh, Well, Randy Johnson was Randy Johnson, the, you know Six nine. Yeah. It's frigging huge.

Unknown Speaker (50:18): Six nine?

Chris (50:19): Six nine. So imagine that delivery from home plate from He delivered

Unknown Speaker (50:24): the ball six inches closer to home plate than any other pitcher that's ever left.

Unknown Speaker (50:29): At a 100 miles an hour, Jeffrey. 102.

Unknown Speaker (50:32): And then you have slider high school baseball as a left handed pitcher, and I was six

Unknown Speaker (50:36): Oh, sweet.

Unknown Speaker (50:37): Six foot at that age, six two or whatever. Okay. But I was delivering it at maybe around 70 miles an hour to a homeboy. That wasn't Randy Johnson.

Jeffrey (50:46): Right. He was delivering a deadly slider at 90 miles an hour.

Chris (50:51): His slider just was This slider was something to watch, man. Just watch that. And you had to watch it on TV because watching it live, it didn't do his pitching justice, but on TV, you could watch that thing drop behind the just drop at the batter's knees and it was just wicked, man. Like just I don't being

Unknown Speaker (51:07): wanna you know, you guys said, you know, talk feel free to talk about the The Walking Dead But I gotta ask you. Kyler Murray. I grew up a Vikings fan. Kyler Murray.

Unknown Speaker (51:17): I'm sorry.

Unknown Speaker (51:17): Good or bad? Sorry.

Unknown Speaker (51:19): I just

Unknown Speaker (51:20): just want on a civilian because I don't know.

Chris (51:21): Here's the thing. We watched him live a couple times. I'm a Giants fan, so but we went to my my wife's a Steelers fan. So we we've gone to the Steelers when they come to Arizona. It's might as well be a home game for the Steelers because Arizona Yeah.

Chris (51:33): Football sucks. Yeah. He is not he is not a big moment quarterback. No. So he's he's short.

Chris (51:39): He he's one of the shortest quarterbacks in the NFL. So part of the problem is he can't see

Unknown Speaker (51:43): what's on. Drew Brees. Right? I mean, come on.

Chris (51:45): Right. Right. He's shorter than Drew Brees, though. He's a couple inches shorter than Drew Brees. Now the other catch is Arizona destroys players.

Chris (51:53): The only two players that have been successful in Arizona was Kurt Warner and Larry Fitzgerald. Now if Larry Fitzgerald would have slid at the two yard line, they'd have a Super Bowl, and and none of the talk would be all the negative talk the cardinals have. But he decided to score instead of dropping to a knee and and wasting time. Kurt Warner already came to to Arizona as an established quarterback. He just left the Giants, and he taught Eli, you know, and all that kind of jazz.

Chris (52:14): So I don't think Kyler Murray is a big a big play quarterback because we watched him in the Steelers game. He had a chance to march them down the field enough time left on the clock, and he couldn't do it. He choked. It's gonna be interesting to see what happens in Minnesota. Right?

Unknown Speaker (52:27): Minnesota.

Unknown Speaker (52:27): Of course.

Chris (52:28): I don't I don't I don't think he's I don't think he's as good as Minnesota paid him because I think his best years were washed away in Arizona. Well, he's proven over

Jeffrey (52:44): and over again that he can't win a big game. Right.

Unknown Speaker (52:46): But they didn't pay him.

Unknown Speaker (52:48): That's the good thing.

Unknown Speaker (52:49): They didn't pay. They got him minimum wage.

Unknown Speaker (52:52): Yeah. Arizona is

Unknown Speaker (52:55): paying and Minnesota's got a one year minimum wage.

Chris (52:57): Okay. So as long as, as long as Minnesota doesn't do a Daniel Jones thing or a Kirk Cousins thing after one Sam

Unknown Speaker (53:05): Darnold.

Chris (53:05): Yeah. Let's talk about Kirk Cousins agent, shall we? Agent is by far the greatest agent in all of major Maybe league

Unknown Speaker (53:14): that's what I need. I need to find Kirk Cousins agent to help me out.

Unknown Speaker (53:21): That's insane. And all

Unknown Speaker (53:23): of us. Yeah. I mean, it's, yeah, I can't believe how much money that guy has made.

Unknown Speaker (53:27): Like at Sam Darnold though, he had the last laugh. He went and moved on and went to the Super Bowl.

Unknown Speaker (53:32): Good for him, you know? Congrats to him. Lately. I'm not saying Vikings probably wouldn't have made it the Super Bowl with him either, but good for him that he did.

Chris (53:41): Well, and that's the thing with with some of these these these franchises. They don't stick to it anymore. They don't it's kinda like music. Like, you don't you don't There's no

Jeffrey (53:50): development deal Right.

Chris (53:52): Don't put money in anybody anymore because you want it now. You want, you want, you want the results now. Want to build a team now. Even the, even the Diamondbacks when they won with, with in '91, they built that team to

Unknown Speaker (54:04): win. 2001.

Chris (54:05): 2001, sorry. They built that team to win. Was, there was nothing else about that. They just wanted that team to win. Period.

Jeffrey (54:11): Then it got dismantled the very next year and they blamed the manager for not winning another one. How you gonna win when you sold off all your players? Yeah, he's right. They, they basically just built that team over what, maybe eighteen months.

Unknown Speaker (54:24): Yep. Yep.

Jeffrey (54:25): Within two years, they won a World Series, and then they've never done anything since.

Unknown Speaker (54:30): But I mean, sports, you're there to win the World Series, right? Or the, or the Super Bowl or whatever it is. Right. It. That's Nobody remembers when you come in second place.

Unknown Speaker (54:37): No, they don't. Very rarely.

Unknown Speaker (54:40): Growing up with twins and a Vikings fan and a Cubs fan, there was not a lot of happiness.

Unknown Speaker (54:45): Sorry. God, there's not

Unknown Speaker (54:46): a lot of happiness.

Chris (54:48): A Cubs fan too. So you guys got that in coming. Oh,

Unknown Speaker (54:51): All right. There we go. And we had eventually it got there, but not when we were young. It was a long drought.

Jeffrey (54:57): No. We had a very bad habit of trading away hall of fame players. IE Greg Maddox.

Unknown Speaker (55:04): Oh man, Greg Maddox, he was a star.

Unknown Speaker (55:06): Yeah. We got rid of him right in time for him to become a Hall of Fame pitcher for the rest of his But

Unknown Speaker (55:11): there's always that question. Would he have been well, he would have been a Hall of Fame pitcher, but would he have won anything with the Cubs? Who knows? Mean, he would have just weren't ready for it. So, yeah.

Unknown Speaker (55:19): I don't know. Long story short. Anyway.

Chris (55:21): I'm gonna share some I'm gonna share some more jokes before we wrap this puppy up because

Unknown Speaker (55:24): Please do. Yeah.

Chris (55:24): Yeah. Because this is on the Instagram. Same same title on the Instagram, boys and girls, the walking dad jokes, but it's underscore after between every words, the underscore walking underscore dad underscore

Unknown Speaker (55:34): Nothing slows me down more than those road signs when you're driving. You come to a bridge and it says draw the bridge. Nothing slows me down. Hello, me.

Unknown Speaker (55:53): Do Americans know Hello Me Cheese? I've been gone so long. I don't even know. Like

Unknown Speaker (55:58): I don't I don't think so. I don't know.

Unknown Speaker (56:02): I got the joke. But no. Yeah. I don't know

Unknown Speaker (56:04): about cheese.

Unknown Speaker (56:04): Gonna go on a diet this month.

Unknown Speaker (56:06): But There's Prague behind me.

Unknown Speaker (56:08): I think I've got too much on my plate. I was gonna I was at this museum in Vienna, and I saw a piano bench with this brown thing on it. It was Beethoven's last movement. It was at this museum in Vienna, and I saw a piano bench with

Unknown Speaker (56:21): this brown

Unknown Speaker (56:22): thing on it. I think it was Beethoven's last movement. Washing the car with my son, I thought it was going really good. And then he he said, dad, can you use a sponge? What?

Unknown Speaker (56:34): I remember that one. That's a good one.

Unknown Speaker (56:37): These are, I mean, is the advantage of living in Prague, by the way. The backgrounds are beautiful. Yeah. They are absolutely lovely. All of those images, I'm walking dead center frog just finding different things behind me to make it a little bit different each each version.

Unknown Speaker (56:49): But yeah.

Unknown Speaker (56:50): Nurse comes

Unknown Speaker (56:50): out. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (56:51): Your scenery does not

Unknown Speaker (56:52): hurt you.

Unknown Speaker (56:53): PR stuff. You know? We do not just call people by name. So the woman with the itchy vagina, please follow me. Nurse comes up, she says.

Unknown Speaker (57:02): With this genie PR stuff, you know, we can no longer call people by name. So with the woman with the itchy vagina

Unknown Speaker (57:08): I recorded that joke. When I when I go out and record these jokes, you know, I I have a I have the cheat, but it's not like I use it verbatim. I try and think on the spot and make it creative. And on that one, I recorded multiple versions of it where I said, would the man with the gerbil in his ass please fumble me?

Unknown Speaker (57:27): You don't know

Unknown Speaker (57:28): how much that is. Can't put that out

Unknown Speaker (57:30): there. Yeah.

Chris (57:32): Literally, literally, we our last guest, he was he ended up being a stand in for Richard Gere. He's an actor. Super nice guy. Was a stand in for Richard Gere. And so Mike and I had talked about that when we're waiting for him to come on because I was scrolling through his photos, there he was standing with Richard Gere.

Unknown Speaker (57:46): We're like, do we ask him? Do we ask him? We we did.

Unknown Speaker (57:49): We did.

Unknown Speaker (57:50): And you asked about the that is obviously growing up in that time period remembering that moment. That's exactly what he had to use the record.

Jeffrey (57:56): Reaction because he said all his actor friends made fun of him for it. So Right. Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (58:03): Well Oh, shit. Someone was in the office.

Unknown Speaker (58:05): Here's another one. Yeah. This is the one who's

Unknown Speaker (58:06): just becoming a big music fan. Just find any recommendations. Now I was like, China's a really big country. I

Unknown Speaker (58:15): got this

Unknown Speaker (58:15): book on antigravity. It's great. I can't put it down. I got the

Unknown Speaker (58:23): That's a Stephen Wright joke there.

Unknown Speaker (58:24): That's the that bridge that bridge behind me is that same bridge. Yeah. 13 Okay. 13 Forties. I hope I'm not corrected by historians here.

Unknown Speaker (58:31): 13 Forties, a thoroughfare to to, you know, whatever. It crossed east and west across the river that didn't have

Unknown Speaker (58:38): That's cool, man. Beautiful. That's cool. Yeah. It is.

Chris (58:40): That is. That's very cool.

Unknown Speaker (58:42): Oh, she doesn't tell me when she orgasms? She's so sweet.

Unknown Speaker (58:45): Heard that one. That was the other one. I'm at work.

Unknown Speaker (58:48): It's coming up. And

Unknown Speaker (58:49): There's a few Jason's out there.

Unknown Speaker (58:51): Think I got her this present. Nobody can beat. It's a broken drum.

Unknown Speaker (58:59): Just I looked today at comments on that, and someone wrote, like like, someone was writing really seriously. Wait. That's a stupid present. You should get her, like, a dress

Unknown Speaker (59:07): or a shirt or whatever. Mine always wanted.

Unknown Speaker (59:09): It amazes me sometimes. Like, people just don't get that it's just fun. That is fun. Okay. Hold on.

Mike (59:17): I always wanted to be in the Guinness Book of World Records. Finally got there. So we made the world's biggest suction cup. Can't believe you pulled it off.

Unknown Speaker (59:29): I had three jokes about the Guinness book. I totally forgot about this one. This is great. Right on. Hold on.

Unknown Speaker (59:34): Eating puns. Got, like, two, maybe three. Four tops. Motown puns.

Unknown Speaker (59:41): Motown puns.

Unknown Speaker (59:41): Got like two, maybe three, four tops. Super sexy young couple moved in right across the street from us. Right away, they made this amazingly hot sex tape. I don't know if I should tell them about it. She'll protect someone completely.

Unknown Speaker (1:00:00): Right away, they need this amazingly hot sex tape. I don't know if I should tell them about it. My wife can go in and saw it easy. She said when we met, I told her I was interesting. I was like, she didn't sound interesting.

Unknown Speaker (1:00:12): She said I was interesting.

Unknown Speaker (1:00:19): We can all relate to that. Right? Like Absolutely.

Unknown Speaker (1:00:22): Those are crazy.

Unknown Speaker (1:00:23): Funny. I was thinking if I can't sequence things, you know, with jokes, like there's these there's two Guinness jokes I told that made me pick up on popularity, but they were both really adult. One was, a friend of mine got into the Guinness Book of World Records for the furthest ejaculation. And I'm I'm just really proud of how far he's come. Then and then the other one I told maybe a week or two later was my my penis

Unknown Speaker (1:00:52): is my

Unknown Speaker (1:00:53): The other one is, my penis is in the Guinness Book of World Records. And, it's, it's a true story actually, but then the librarian asked me to take it out.

Unknown Speaker (1:01:04): We're going to put, we're going to get the ejaculation one. We're going to make a reel out of that. That's funny.

Unknown Speaker (1:01:08): Perfect. That's funny. I think I published it a year ago, but you have to go back in time. I was thinking most people I know don't look back a year, so I might try and rerecord it better, but we'll see. But publish it.

Chris (1:01:19): Go for it. Learned that a little bit that in the algorithms world, you go back and republish something that had a lot of views, it's supposed to kind of recirculate and recycle and, and, and bring, you know, bring back that attention because you're right. Nobody's gonna go down. I went down your entire Facebook reels for purposely because we're on the show.

Unknown Speaker (1:01:38): Yeah. Right? Yeah.

Unknown Speaker (1:01:39): And then I wanted to go down your Instagram just so people could see the Instagram. But the more and more fans you pick up, the more and more people are gonna go down the rabbit hole.

Unknown Speaker (1:01:49): Know, it's kind of fun

Unknown Speaker (1:01:49): sometimes on Instagram. I'll do it where I'll scroll. I'll just keep scrolling till I get the very beginning because I want

Unknown Speaker (1:01:54): to see

Unknown Speaker (1:01:54): how they started. But I'm weird like that. No, but

Jeffrey (1:01:58): I think that's that's what I meant when I said his page was easy to digest. I can't think of just a handful of pages where what you just described, you know, like I'll go all the way back and say, where did this guy start? Because it's your style, you know? You have the same Chris asked how you recorded him. Doing it with the walking stick every time with the different scenery, you're easily recognizable, right?

Jeffrey (1:02:26): It's like, hey, I know that. Soon as I'm scrolling through the clips, I know right away that's The Walking Dead, so I'm gonna stop.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:33): Yeah. Yeah. Yep. The Walking Dead.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:35): That's a format.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:35): The Walking Dead.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:36): And a friend of mine designed this new shirt for me about half I've a year been wearing that.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:40): I love it.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:41): It's awesome.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:41): It is I thought about changing it, but this but then I'm like, I don't wanna lose the identity. Once in a while, I publish a joke. I think there's, like, three on there with my wife, usually being skeptical. But I think a little bit of breakup, but otherwise I think just the walking and selfie stick at work.

Unknown Speaker (1:02:57): No, I stick to what works, man. Yeah. Stick to

Unknown Speaker (1:03:00): what works. I guess.

Unknown Speaker (1:03:00): I think it's, I think it's great.

Unknown Speaker (1:03:02): Think it's funny. When I go out and record, I record 20 to 40 jokes. I'm going out this weekend so, if you have any joke ideas, send them.

Unknown Speaker (1:03:11): Can create a Chris and Mike joke. We won't be mad at you.

Unknown Speaker (1:03:15): No. All right.

Unknown Speaker (1:03:16): Would be awesome. That'd be good.

Unknown Speaker (1:03:18): I post it with a link to the podcast when it's when it's

Chris (1:03:22): they're right now. Because we because we're gonna send you a bunch of stuff you can use and we and Mark and Mike marked the show where you just told those Guinness Book jokes. So you're gonna see us populate those as reels and tag you in it because that's funny shit, man. And really, was serious. Next time you go to Chicago, you go back home and see your family, you should just do a do an improv drop mic.

Chris (1:03:40): What do they call open mic? Because I'd really you only you only go for five, ten minutes. You don't have a long

Unknown Speaker (1:03:44): set. Yeah.

Chris (1:03:45): It's five, ten minutes and you could bust that out pretty easy just walking on the stage and doing your pauses and stuff as though

Unknown Speaker (1:03:52): it It's just would depending on the length

Unknown Speaker (1:03:55): of the jokes, it's five, ten to thirty jokes, but whatever.

Chris (1:03:59): Right. What would be funny is you go out there with your selfie stick and you just tell the crowd, I'm recording this from my Instagram. Just start walking with your selfie stick. Cause that, that alone would be, what the fuck is this guy doing if I didn't see you before? And then as you're doing the thing, you'll get that reaction from the crowd

Unknown Speaker (1:04:14): And then I'll be like, Sorry guys, can you be quiet, please?

Unknown Speaker (1:04:17): Really horny. What I'm saying.

Unknown Speaker (1:04:21): There's your pet, Jeffrey. There's your pet, man.

Unknown Speaker (1:04:24): And if you're gonna do that, let me know and I'll come see it live myself. That'd be awesome.

Unknown Speaker (1:04:28): You'll have to be quiet, Mike. You'll have to

Jeffrey (1:04:30): I will remain quiet as a church mountain.

Chris (1:05:22): So boys and girls, I don't know how you could be sad or suicidal depressed after this show because it's Jeffrey, the walking dad. If you are, you know, go scream in a pillow, go run, go workout, go jog, go journal, go find something to change your mindset. If you can't do that, text 988. Somebody is standing by to help talk you off that Cliff. Don't leave a hole in somebody else's heart because you decided not to wake up tomorrow morning because you will leave a void and they won't know how to deal with that.
