Adrian:

Number 1 from the start. Number 1. And,

Mitch:

it's a unique experience that most people weren't ever experienced unless actually gonna do it. So, I think there's a lot to learn about what we did and what you where you wanna go and do every year. Health, fitness, careers, relationships. There's a lot that you can learn from what what happened and, yeah, it was a it was an interesting experience.

Adrian:

It was a it was a great experience. Great experience.

Mitch:

I mean, how would you sum it up, Adrian, in in a in a short synopsis? How how do you sum it up?

Adrian:

May I use euphoric? That's how it's that's

Mitch:

the best word to explain it. Euphoric idea. K. Okay. So if you need some, what what do you feel like there?

Mitch:

On reflection, I know you've we've now Yeah. Yeah. So we we took some what's what we've got next Yeah. Later on. But, yeah, there's the I feel like I went through, like, the ups and downs after the first time I did it, it was like a massive high, and then it was like a bit of a low.

Mitch:

So, what's your experience been, like, since you've since you've been on this on this show? Since I've done

Adrian:

it, I think about it a lot. Like, I really wanna do it again.

Mitch:

You haven't watched it back yet. What?

Adrian:

My year my year performance? Uh-huh. No. I've watched, like, 100. I'm sorry.

Adrian:

Since I was 16, 17. So how long ago is that? It's 15 years ago. So 20 years. Yeah.

Adrian:

Wow. So I've I've always wanted to do it. It's been on my head for a long time, and the last couple of years, it's just like I need to do it. I need to do it. I stopped writing and then I found on Facebook, I found it, the little old charcoal menu.

Adrian:

I was like, hey, let's do it. Let's go for it.

Mitch:

And that was it. Yeah. So you you was writing before? Yeah. Yeah.

Mitch:

Yeah.

Adrian:

I started writing before. It's it's it's weird because, like, I I thought, like, okay, I I need to do this. And I started writing. And then, after a couple of months, I just found that Ultra Comedy, which is it was, like, perfect. I am.

Adrian:

Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I found the Yeah. So it was it was a good night.

Tom:

What have you sold off? 20 days. Yeah. It's good.

Adrian:

Mate, so oh, like, like, it's a different mentality in Romania. Right? Well, at least for me, I'm sure there's a lot of people who have good lives in Romania to this day. You know, My childhood was not that great. We were pretty poor, like, when I when I grew up.

Adrian:

And it's like, I don't know. It's a like, when you're poor, like, your mentality is very bad. Like, you don't think necessarily about what you wanna do is like what you can do. You know what I mean? Yeah.

Adrian:

But when you go for a job, for example, like, you just go in Romania, go for any job. It doesn't matter if you like it or not. It's good to have a job. Yeah. You know what I mean?

Adrian:

Anything. So yeah. I remember, like, when I met my girlfriend, which is my fiancee now. I should probably Would you do that to me? Yeah.

Adrian:

Thank you.

Mitch:

What do you mean?

Adrian:

Her name is Sam. I'm just gonna call her Sam. Question that anybody has ever had. Like, would why am I? I don't know.

Adrian:

You know what I mean? Because I never thought about it. I just like, okay. I'm gonna come to England and just get a job and make money. Mhmm.

Adrian:

Nice to start. You know what I mean? So I think more than any problem. Yeah. Definitely way more money.

Adrian:

Yeah. It's not even that I you know? So, I think that pulled me back. It's my mentality, I would guess, because I could have done it probably. Would you know how how long you know English?

Adrian:

I I I I've learned I've learned English just from what you can't do. Sorry. Like Right. Just all of a sudden, you know, if you can't network. Really?

Mitch:

What what are you watching? Mhmm. What's what show

Adrian:

you Anything, mate? Like, Looney Tunes? Like, Dexter? It's a very good way to learn a language because cartoons, they have that simple dialogue. You know what I mean?

Adrian:

It's so it's easy to pick up. Mhmm.

Tom:

So it was great. It's it's I think there's one thing one thing learning the language. I mean, the Brits Yeah. The Brits are shitty. Yeah.

Tom:

The British is shitty. But we learn the language, but

Adrian:

then making people laugh. Yeah. Different languages. Yeah. The next level.

Adrian:

Yeah.

Tom:

So to do the type of set that you did, Yeah. So to do the set the way it because there's no there's gonna be something fun and, like, obviously, the first time we we heard it. Yeah. Yeah. We hear it on it.

Tom:

So yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Mitch:

Do you, how do you find the difference in terms of, like, humor? Because how long have you been in in England? 10 years. 10 years? How long have

Mitch:

you been in in England? 10 years. 10 years. Did did you see a difference when you came

Adrian:

over in terms of humor and background? British humor is different. Like, I'm obviously used to American. It's like in Romania, we hear a lot of American stuff. Yeah.

Adrian:

And even my favorite comedians Oh, in Ireland. Yeah. Bill Burr, Dave Chappelle, Chris Rock. Okay. Which I've seen them all since I've been in India, which for me is, like, it was a bucket list.

Adrian:

It's in a mix. I've seen Chris Rock and Nick Chappell. They came together at the same time in London here. It was amazing work. Best times of my life.

Adrian:

Yeah. That wasn't Yeah. It wasn't when

Tom:

someone was yeah. After the slap was freeze freeze.

Adrian:

After he was after after Okay. It's coming from the actual speaker. Yeah. Yeah. It's like you need, like, you need to watch that.

Adrian:

It's like it's just brilliant. And, I think it helped me a lot, especially when I was obviously a teenager, growing up, being poor and all that, like, comedy helped me a lot, like, in my life. Mhmm. So I think that's why I failed in obedience, basically. I don't know how to figure out, yeah?

Adrian:

Maybe just when you have a shitty day and you go home, barely just for 40 minutes, half an hour, you forget about the wall and you just laugh your ass off. You know what I mean? And sometimes, like, with Chris Rock, for example, he made some jokes. I didn't even laugh, but I was like, that's so smart. He was like, you know what I mean?

Adrian:

I mean, I I think it helped me as well, like, with Dave Chappelle to realize, because he talks about, like, black people in America and the ghetto. And it makes me understand that sometimes it's not necessarily about skin color. It's about social status because I could relate to a lot of things that you were saying. I was like, how come a Romanian white

Mitch:

So,

Adrian:

yeah, I think it helped me in a lot of, a lot of weight. And I think it's a it's a coping mechanism as well.

Tom:

How many Yeah. But, you know, there are times that Yeah. My mom must have you guys probably say, like, awkward

Adrian:

I mean, I don't know if you can, like, deflect, you know, anything. You just make a joke and forget about it, move on. Mhmm. And the problem is still there. It's like, oh, yeah.

Adrian:

I've solved that. In reality, in

Mitch:

the moment, you you kinda solve the Yeah. The tension, like, a tense situation. You can solve it with a was you funny in school? Or is it

Adrian:

I I I mean, if you ask me, I think I'm I was fighting all the time. But but that's the thing, like, I'm trying to get a little bit of

Mitch:

a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

Adrian:

little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a

Mitch:

little bit of a little bit of

Adrian:

a little bit of a little bit of a

Tom:

It's a very different moment because I never saw myself as an attention seeker at school. I never saw myself as attention seeker. But for now I know a lot of people, He says it. I think it's that that was I think he's talking about it. It's some sort of joke that his brother makes to his

Adrian:

as well with him. So a friend of mine, they were I was with 2 friends, and, one man said, said something, a name of a woman. And me stupid. I said, oh, that's a horse name. And he looked at me and was like, that's my mom's name.

Adrian:

But the other guy was like, my mom too. And I was like,

Mitch:

So the, to the comedy show there. So what made what made you sign up to it? What what was the what was the what was the main reason that you you invite Bright? This is this is something I gotta do. I've always thought

Adrian:

that I can do it. Like, a voice in my head. Sometimes I see comedians on YouTube or and I think, like, I'm funny than that. And it was a moment to, like, okay. It's time to prove it.

Adrian:

You know? Because you talk shit, obviously, to myself. I talk shit to myself. Yeah. It's time to prove it.

Adrian:

So it's basically that's what I wanted to prove to myself that I can actually do it. You know? And, yeah. So

Mitch:

before you signed up, do you remember, like, with just a simple bang on in the woods? Do you remember, like, how you felt before you before you actually put your hand up?

Adrian:

Hey. I signed up, and I think I don't know if after a day or time I got an email, oh, you'll sign up or whatever. It didn't really, like I didn't really register it. It just said, okay. That's fine.

Adrian:

And then after a couple of months, I think we got an email, and it was like, on this stage, it's gonna start and whatever, whatever. And that's when I was like, okay, this is real. Yeah.

Tom:

So what this is just you

Adrian:

if you're watching people, you think you're funny. Yeah. Which is which Yeah. Definitely. So would you

Tom:

be in Romanian if you

Adrian:

were thinking about it as a kid then? Me? I don't know because my brain was very weird. Like, Now, it's very hard to think about it because all my jokes are in English and they don't work in Romanian. Everything is in English, so it wouldn't work.

Adrian:

Because even in Romania, like, we have we tell jokes. Like, obviously, jokes that everybody tells around, and they're not your jokes. We just chose it. But and I knew, like, like, so many. In Romanian, I just sit around and throw, like, 100, but they don't make sense.

Adrian:

If I try and read an English, they make no sense.

Tom:

It because it's It doesn't make it it doesn't mean it's not funny.

Adrian:

Exactly. I mean, some

Tom:

of them were. Yeah. But so my my fade. Yeah. Yet their their wives had a fake tan on it.

Tom:

Right. Yes. Right. They had a necklace and a tank top that was white. Yeah.

Tom:

Yeah.

Adrian:

I don't know. In the beginning, use harder because, like, there's a difference between understanding English and speaking English. Mhmm. Like, you you need to it takes time. There's certain sounds that you've never pronounced.

Adrian:

So it's very hard. Even to this day, it's probably certain words. You know? So it took me a while, but I think We can ask ask what those words are. I I I can't think of anything, but there's some words.

Adrian:

What do you say?

Mitch:

Bush. Bush.

Mitch:

Bush. Bush.

Adrian:

Yeah. Yeah. But I think that house Yeah. That that house, that's what I'm gonna say. Like, dude, even if I mess up some words or something, it's just to accent a lot of people's language to their.

Adrian:

Yes. So I think that gives me an advantage over the Romanian me. You know? Because in Romania, I'm just another guy. Ideally, if I could make out of comedy the amount that I make now at work, that would be perfect.

Adrian:

But it's it's very hard for me to think because I don't think like that. I don't think like, oh, I wanna be in Romanian. I just I I usually think about what's gonna happen in the future, and now I'm here, and that's how I see my life. I see my life here from now. So I don't think about going back home or it's just I don't know.

Adrian:

I'm not Summer, but She came to England when she was living from Jamaica.

Tom:

Oh, wow. So you both okay. Well, my That's really good.

Adrian:

But it's hard to, like because since I've met her, obviously, my English has improved a lot. Yeah. And she her English is is good as well. And every time I make a mistake, she points it out, which helps a lot, obviously. And it helped me because I've noticed a lot of immigrants, they come here.

Adrian:

They learn just enough to get by, and then they kinda stop. But I always strive to learn more and better and just to pronounce words better because it helps you. It just helps you back to work.

Tom:

Did you come with any, like, any other organized in the unit?

Adrian:

Oh, I haven't, like, I wouldn't say a friend. The guy there was here and,

Mitch:

I knew one other representative in the Yeah.

Adrian:

I mean, I could get into that if you want. It's just, he kinda fucked me over. So, he he told me, like, we knew each other from home. We were in the same neighborhood. We hang out together.

Adrian:

He was a friend of a friend. Yeah. Well, then we became friends. And, he told me, like, oh, yeah. Come here.

Adrian:

You can get a job, and, we'll get a house together, whatever. Whatever. I got the ticket. Got ready. 2 days before, he was like, I'm not moving.

Adrian:

That's where I live now, and he used to live with some shady people that came to England to do shady shit. He was like, I'm not moving because I'm happy with what I'm paying for the rent. I got you a room. So he he found me a room in a shared house. It was fucking insane.

Adrian:

And, we just kinda, like, started potting heads because he would gamble all his money. He was broke all the time. He was just stupid shit with his money, and he would just try to borrow money from me all the time. And at some point, I was like, you know what I mean? Put up with your shit.

Adrian:

It was the best decision. Yeah. You know what

Tom:

I mean? So you were literally on

Adrian:

your own? Yeah. Like, I didn't know anything.

Tom:

Because that's the thing you say about because he used to drink 3, 4 pints of milk a day. Right. That was just so you just walk around

Mitch:

selling all the Wow. So we would be from nowhere. No food. It wasn't as bad as it happened. It was, And, yeah, he he he looked in his cabin.

Mitch:

He was empty. We were like, like, no one need to make eye contact, but, you know, he's like,

Adrian:

Anybody So they're not in the same as people? Yeah. Pretty much. Pretty much. Yeah.

Mitch:

But, so yeah. We've we've been coming today. So what was your experience for Alco? I I didn't see you much throughout the the course. Yeah.

Mitch:

Shout. Oh, so you said yeah. I I

Adrian:

I came the first time. I didn't think I I think I enrolled to, like, 5 times. I was like, 8 or something like that. I don't know. Or less.

Adrian:

No. I think, like, did you stand up a lot? No. At the end, like, I'm not I'm not sure if when you saw me that time, I think that was

Mitch:

the first time. I think you I think you remember saying the words. Yeah. I think

Adrian:

that first time because that was when I had the most nerves. Like, that was hours I I recorded that. You know, when I said the jokes and I can't hear, like, the anxiety in my voice nerves when when I when I listened to it. But, you know, it was it was I wasn't expecting people to be as supportive as there was. Some work.

Adrian:

Some work. Like, some people were very like, they they were pretty exercising, like, other people's jokes, but not from a, you know, I wanted how appeal you remember. From,

Tom:

like, alley, sorry, on the course. 10 lines whether they're, you know, with a guy, with a woman. Yeah. You know? But what you What type of woman they're with, what type of man they're with, what

Mitch:

where you're from? Was it like you you included that?

Adrian:

I said that the joke I sent back your roommate. I I There were some

Tom:

some in Romania. Yes. Okay. No. I don't

Mitch:

understand. I don't think

Adrian:

I understand what a bear is. Like, you don't get what that is. No. I don't think people understand what a bear is. Is.

Adrian:

I've noticed that there's something that I've noticed in England when it comes to animals. Like, people see animals like this furry, it's like yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah.

Adrian:

Leave them alone. Like if if you go in nature, nature wants to kill you. Nature wants you dead. Everything, if you go into the jungle, everything there wants to kill you. Yeah.

Adrian:

All the insects. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. It's like, oh, a bear won't attack you.

Adrian:

That's like you know that bears don't kill you. Right? They just moan. They sit on you, and they just start eating you out of you. That's how a bear kills you.

Adrian:

Like, they don't go for the neck like an iron or Like, you know, we

Mitch:

need to have, like, the martial arts. It seems it's completely different. So but, like, you you will get some people that they teach, like, defense against knife attack. And I'm thinking, look. There's a knife coming.

Mitch:

You've got that one chance. There's many

Tom:

in their house, and then they're out into the wild. Yeah. You know the average age, a mouse would live when it's out in the wild because everything is out trying to be here. Right? So if you actually

Adrian:

care about animals, you should meet it now. Yeah. Right? Yeah. But they don't wanna do that.

Adrian:

But he says, Yeah. It's it's it's, it's a very weird way of and I understand because I love dogs. If you're any of your little bit, I love dogs. I've always wanted to have a dog, I also grew up in a city where we had about a straight dose. Okay.

Adrian:

And, like, I know how it is to be shaped by the point of those at night on the streets. But we in this country You know? Don't. So we have to exactly have to invent shows. Yeah.

Adrian:

That's like an actual reality. Like, it happened. I don't wanna

Mitch:

So, we with the so I'll keep coming. Interesting thing that most people don't have to do with service. So you have the you have your performance, but the rehearsal one, which went well. Yeah. So you have these numbers that you're getting.

Mitch:

Yeah. Would you you sounded the most nervous you felt? Yeah. The whole thing? Yeah.

Mitch:

So what was what was the

Adrian:

first time, like, you know, that was I I was, like, shaking. So you were much less stressed for me and actually. So I like, when I actually did it, I wasn't really that nervous.

Tom:

Yeah. I remember it very well because I'm shaking myself. But literally, I was like,

Adrian:

I was looking around and everybody was, like, cursing in the corner, like, just holding. Yeah. And I like,

Mitch:

oh, that's not So I I actually I didn't tell you. Did I tell you this at all? When I went up to, to process myself and send You

Tom:

were you were like, You were kind of like the

Mitch:

my girlfriend, she's not as adventurous. She's like a, I don't know where he's now a super relaxed Sri Lankan restaurant. I'll go with No one in there. So I can sit down and eat. Yeah.

Mitch:

So I was, like, prepare myself, and then he come to me that I should ask someone to perform in front of them Right. Within the restaurant.

Mitch:

What? What?

Mitch:

Another couple kind of sit down and say, oh, I'm gonna that's now an audience. Yeah. That's cool. That's not just how there's 4 people there. So I was like, and then I've got into my flow.

Mitch:

Halfway through, I've just realized what I'm talking about and I'm talking about shit. Having it, like, literally having to and Yeah. Yeah. So just, having 2 people just stare at you. But because when you're in a room, not not everyone finds everything funny.

Mitch:

Yeah. Like, they'll find some things funny. Yeah. But not everything funny. So when you got 2 people there, they're only gonna find some things funny.

Mitch:

So there's a lot of things that they weren't laughing at. It's scary. Yeah.

Adrian:

I wanna fucking eat. It's not

Mitch:

And then And then there's a couple of things that I've got a lot of you after now. So is this, like, is this amazing? That is it. Mate. Weird.

Mitch:

It's fair, bro. That is nice. You've got you've got you've probably got to And do you you didn't use any notes in it? No. Did you use notes in

Adrian:

the practice? I think the first time when I said it, I think I read from my phone. I don't know. I don't remember if I did this the second time, but I I rehearse it all the time. Like, even when I was at work in my head, I kept going through it over and over again.

Tom:

So you you can you feel like you're rehearsing and you just think about it.

Adrian:

Basically. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And sometimes I know the joke.

Adrian:

You don't have to know what like, every word exactly the same. Sometimes especially with stuff that you're doing. Yes. Actually, sometimes good because it it

Tom:

comes across as way way more natural. Yes. If you turn this to story, it's the Yes. I always wondered that when I see comedians, like, long build ups. There's no way they're writing in more codes to the left.

Tom:

Yeah. This specific part of certainly unnecessarily angry. Mhmm. And then he goes to a little bit to the warm up guys and he just speaks about what the story is,

Mitch:

Yeah. Yeah. I'm not wanting to be Thomas and Yoruba. I I've I've start my notes like that when I'm writing out. I start with this first, like, the first, like, word is all all you need and then

Tom:

because you I mean, you end up fairly

Mitch:

You you remember the you you're about to tell a funny story. You remember what the funny part of the story is. You just gotta remember what the side of the story is and you go through it. You want I like the story aspects. If I was to do it again, I would I would like to maybe practice a bit more like the comedic one liner kind of style of things, but, I think it just suits certain people more.

Tom:

That's alright. I I probably a mixture of both. Right? Is it is there something that people come back to you and say, I'm happy today? Yeah.

Tom:

Yeah. And I was like, oh, I didn't think it's

Adrian:

that funny. I have I have things in mind that I I wasn't expecting people to laugh,

Mitch:

but they did. Yes.

Adrian:

And I was like, okay. That's a bonus. Like, I only have, like, in my whole 5 minutes, I only had 3 things that I would expecting people to laugh. And that was it. Yeah.

Adrian:

Yeah. And everything else was just a bonus. Yeah. Like, Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Adrian:

What does it start, Eric? So it's okay. Because it's the joke starts with, like, women, you know, when they're asked, would you choose the Oh, and you said that. And then then I said, did you choose the bet? And she she yells.

Adrian:

But the problem is Really? The thing is that, like, I I heard that when I was gonna say, and it it it bothered me. Let me let me explain why it's bothering me. Because some people would see it and those are like, oh, people laughed so it's good because they added to your show. But no.

Adrian:

Because she distracted from what was important, me on the stage. Mhmm. So I need people to focus on me when I tell the joke. Mhmm. Because that's why especially with my joke, it's a story.

Adrian:

So I need to captivate them. Right? So I can give that. I I have the I feel

Mitch:

that that's your next kind of challenge then because you you you you said that you're going to do it professionally. You won't have a

Adrian:

That's a good one. That joke. I I just wrote that joke because

Tom:

I was like, she's a bit further kind of introduced because I don't really talk about me now that much anyway.

Mitch:

And I've I've heard it. What can't happen? But now I've, like, I've addressed it as I heard it. Did you see the video? It was like, amazing.

Mitch:

It's like but, like, in the first show, I wasn't, like, present to it. Like, any when someone shout, it's, like, starting really kind of like, for Ruby, I didn't I wasn't able to take any sort of, like, adrenaline pumps.

Tom:

But Oh, yeah. I do I wouldn't know how to I mean,

Adrian:

that first one. I I would not have to deal with that. Yeah. I would to tell you, like, I have I have a spreadsheet on my computer with insoles. So I think about an insoles, and I write in that.

Adrian:

Like, and I practice the way I practice it,

Mitch:

I read it. I don't know. Like, I go to what? That's not

Mitch:

I don't wanna come

Adrian:

This is a good exercise. Go at work and look at somebody and think about this person is annoying. Maybe they don't. Just find things to make fun of them, write them down, and then have them in your head. Then when somebody hackles you, you can go back to that.

Adrian:

Yeah. You're so ugly because whatever whatever.

Tom:

I have with some honesty. So sometimes I just behind you,

Adrian:

it's just me. Yeah. All black

Tom:

girls from all around this country, they perish for different

Adrian:

Yeah. Exactly. So it's, like, you have to this is gonna happen. Yeah. It's definitely gonna happen.

Adrian:

So I have some I have some brutal ones that I think that I could get my ass kicked if I said, but it depends if I have a story and interrupt it. Like, okay, mate. What's what's the problem? You know?

Mitch:

These are, like, when I was thinking about it. But you try not to think about it because if you focus on that, then you focus on it going. But it's kind of, like, being out, how do you manage the crowd? You almost wanna, like, be able to have that authority within the crowd today. That you you you demand respect for it.

Mitch:

You make them laugh early on. If you make them laugh, they wanna hear me more. So I feel like these Alrighty. Can you

Mitch:

have a put on the chat, please? It is. Bush.

Adrian:

Oh, and Bob. And, everybody was, like, cheerleading and, you know, I mean, like, a very good crowd. It was,

Mitch:

like,

Tom:

Like, he has no key. He just comes out a lot of comedians to talk or talk about just how clever he is. It just

Adrian:

comes out. Was he movies or TV shows. It might mean the Idiot crowd or you might visit there. I don't know. That's correct.

Adrian:

It it I don't know. That's actually It it I think I know. Anyway, yeah. Sorry.

Tom:

So we watched it, and he doesn't do any joke, but he has, like, certain stories maybe. And he had, this one joke of a Muslim in a car park. That's how it started. Mhmm. And he kept on because the way it is comedy, he just kept on moving away from it.

Tom:

He just kept on moving away from that joke you've gone, you know, you've behaved a little bit and then someone goes, I come. And he goes, no. That was bad.

Adrian:

So

Mitch:

you can see the professionals that that handle it well. And, like, your news body always wants you to win. They want you to be forgiven. But I remember one And, it's just and then she's like she's just stood up, and, like, she's just like she's got in the middle of the aisle, and she's like just like standing there and, like, putting that in right there. And everyone's looking at most people deal with, like, a kind of authority way.

Mitch:

Yeah. And it kind of, like, the crowd kind of got behind him, like, see Yeah. Sympathetic people.

Adrian:

Yeah.

Tom:

Yeah. But

Adrian:

I don't know. I I don't understand. There's such a lack of respect for the person that gets on stage. Even if you don't like what they're doing. Right?

Adrian:

They they took their time to learn what they're saying. They have the courage. You know? I mean It's

Mitch:

pretty much like going to a restaurant and they've just cooked you a nice meal and then someone just wipes out of

Adrian:

the way. Yeah.

Tom:

Especially with, like, people. I'm a lot of jokes. I'll send this to yours, especially when there's a day. Like,

Mitch:

Yeah.

Tom:

If you're a person that just goes like that, that's their remember. Yeah. You completely mess everything up. Yeah. It's only something subtle

Adrian:

It must be a very She was, Yeah. It has to be like a

Mitch:

Yeah. She was all around, like, how she couldn't couldn't meet anyone. She couldn't find find anyone to to upset with. Like, and then we started saying that, my sister doesn't find me funny, and then someone said, oh, I don't I'm not surprised. There's some

Adrian:

of that in the crowd. And then and then she's like, you're

Mitch:

not doing that doing that in a good well, you can't leave if you want. And he's like, is that

Adrian:

I'm

Mitch:

I'm not really bad. You have to like it's all like, you just have to

Tom:

be where the power is.

Adrian:

So when you're on stage, you're on the

Tom:

really. I do remember looking next to her and her boyfriend just like, chose you.

Mitch:

Yeah. Have you ever been to children, essentially, if you're, like, you're not black and sick out of a Saw film. Yeah. I missed it. No.

Mitch:

No. I work with a friend, and, we got there late. And, yeah, not a good start. Is he what? He's Asian.

Mitch:

Oh, shit. And then I've asked the guards to go in and see seats, and he's he's pointing right to the front. There's 2 seats at the front. I mean, he's the the guy has just come into the mic to start. I was like, no.

Mitch:

No. No. No. Right then, man. We'll, what we'll do then is just just give me like to, like, link it back to people and their desires and going after for what they've done.

Mitch:

Like you said, this is what? 20 years? Yes. 20 years in the banking, man. That's as old as you are.

Mitch:

Isn't that old? Yeah? 22. Yeah. Wow.

Mitch:

So 20 years. So 20 years and you've gone after this thing now, like, what's your kind of experience after you've gone and done this? Like, how would how would you describe that that experience as someone going after that?

Adrian:

It it feels good, but I want more. Mhmm. That's what I think. I want more. Like, I'm not like when when I'm listening to the video, when I'm watching the video myself every day.

Adrian:

I I I I hear this laugh. I can hear somebody laughing. When no one would laugh from the gut, they use it's almost like crying. Yeah. It's just like it's like a drug.

Adrian:

Yeah. It's like it gets a leak. It I want more. That's what I'm saying. And it's like at at work sorry for interrupting.

Adrian:

I I at work, I'm feeling like I could be out telling jokes while I'm, like, here. Yeah. I mean, what I mean? Yeah. It feels so dull at work.

Adrian:

But, yes, I don't know. I like it. I want more people. I wanna do it.

Mitch:

What's going to do for work?

Adrian:

I want that technician. That technician. Yeah. Well, that's I don't see the Yeah. So you like, do you do you get

Mitch:

that same kind of feeling that

Mitch:

when you're when you're in work?

Tom:

I I don't, when I'm in work,

Adrian:

I was just saying because I don't

Tom:

I never felt as present on the stage as

Mitch:

It's interesting because, like, as I think you mentioned earlier, like, listening back to yourself is the best way to improve. Yeah. I I found when I did the first time I think I was recorded, it was nice about all the company to record as I'm not surprised to laugh about. I believe

Adrian:

you've got

Mitch:

that. I did record that, by the way. But, anyway, with the

Adrian:

as you said,

Mitch:

you can hear different people laughing at different things, and that's a different person finding something else put in. To me, that was like, I was listening to each pause. I think I recorded the the final rehearsal before we did the second show. And, again, I've been hearing different people laughing at different bits to the joke. Some some jokes were fully weren't as fully as the first show, but then certain other parts were for the air.

Mitch:

And it's just like, you can't you start attack from what you usually just go with that. So I think it's like, listening back to me is really important. With the podcast, so listen back to these podcasts. I don't know. I I I love I love it.

Mitch:

It was interesting. I I miss I miss part of it, when I wasn't, like, as president. So I think it's a big part of just improving yourself and, yeah, learning about yourself as well. Like, it's It's like at the gym, you have a mirror. Right?

Mitch:

In order to get the perfect form, you have to look at yourself. Mhmm. When you do the exercise, and you do because there's always a a case of, like, one of the first things you do when people come into the program is you have to send further of yourself. Yeah. Like, just I see.

Mitch:

You're in the naked. Yeah. You're express themselves. Yeah. Women talk to each other.

Mitch:

We don't. We don't. We just go about people someone said it to me. They actually when you see a man in the gym and he's, like, pressing whatever, exactly, like, crying. Like, you know if you think about there's normally a person I've young people named that person.

Mitch:

There's only a person that you say if you could do something out there that would get, like, shut down or say, oh, absolutely out of line or whatever. There's only a person in your life that you can feedback. It's normally a friend from, like, or a Probably a wrong course. Yeah. Well, but normally it come it comes from a friend, like,

Adrian:

I think so. Yeah. Because I want you to see, like, I I made a lot of mistakes in my when I get I made mistakes. Mhmm. And, it's hard to watch yourself.

Adrian:

Yes. Although a lot of people don't see it because they don't know.

Mitch:

Oh, exactly. I didn't know you made mistakes. It's interesting. Exactly.

Adrian:

See what I mean. So I think that's when

Tom:

Yeah. It's good to look.

Mitch:

It's very it's, like, in my

Tom:

First of all, there's some pub oh, wait. I don't even know where it is.

Adrian:

It's cocking. Who? With cocking

Mitch:

It was great. It was awesome. Before we end, because I'd like to end with a bit of a theme. So as I said, some people common reason for everyone, and I think we've all got what we have what we do to share within that room of 80 people, that was

Adrian:

not designed by 80 people is

Mitch:

we all share the desire to make people laugh. But, well, that's a common trait

Adrian:

we always have. Yeah.

Mitch:

A strong desire to put ourselves through all of that stress and shit to to stand up on stage and possibly be cumulated, but you all just wanted to make people laugh. And I thought that's a common trait. Yeah. That was a desire. Yeah.

Mitch:

But that's not everyone's desire. So someone's desire maybe, like, they go and create their, like, I don't know, their handbag business or they go and, like, start singing, or they they they go into politics, maybe.

Adrian:

Yeah. But

Mitch:

people who are maybe just on the edge and then they're not going for their design?

Adrian:

Listen. The to me, like, when COVID started, when lockdown started, I got very sick. I couldn't go to the hospital because everything was locked. And for around 6 months, I had this horrible pain in my chest because I had problems in my stomach. And, at some point, I thought I'm gonna die.

Adrian:

Like, I don't know when when I thought I'm gonna die. And maybe you can die Like, it doesn't care your mind in the grass fed. Just do go for it, whatever your dream is, except if you're, like, a pedophile. I mean, don't

Mitch:

do that. I didn't get it. Yeah. It wasn't so, like, listen. It is.

Tom:

It wasn't it's not listening to Adrian

Adrian:

Thank you, man. Like, I wanted to say because I didn't get to say, like, the the fact that you encourage me, you don't like, you're great. Like, your jokes are amazing. That helped me a lot. It gave me a lot of time.

Adrian:

So thank you for that. Well, I've

Tom:

been telling that to people that, sir. You've been very how do you tell people I made it?

Mitch:

The leading yourself, start to really start to, as I said, love yourself. Yeah. We start to do some practice out once.
