  • No introduction needed for Erik Griffin!!! He’s practically a co-host now.
    With his seventh appearance, the comedian, actor, and podcaster jumps straight into it with Rick. They break down being type cast, Erik’s late career change, discussing their significant others in Stand Up sets, and we show Rick's "America's Got Talent" audition!
    This is a real Business-Of-Stand-Up episode that details their feelings toward turning a crowd and how they each go about developing bits. Erik gives us some insight into how he reformats an opinion by finding a different perspective and moulding it into jokes.
    Rick discusses some of the difficulties he's faced with stand-up and Erik gives him some literal coaching. They discuss how they deal with negative comments and how sometimes blocking is the best approach. Erik encourages Rick to step into his “character” self when on stage and they get into their usual disagreements about nearly everything.
    And you know the deal… supporting the sponsors supports the podcast!

    Everything meta about this episode (the screenshots of messages with cues, to “title card” cueing the end title to come in) is why Rick is on the Mount Rushmore of podcasters. To always have a portion of your mind editing as moments are happening is such a skill that he’s refined over the TYSO journey. I am extremely excited to see where this show is in 3 years.

    Rick, as one of the attendees at that Brea Improv show with Bobby Lee, I can guarantee you that I would go check out your shows in LA. .
    That Brea show was awesome. And was super cool bumping into you and Fahim Anwar near the parking lot. It was actually the perfect show for me!
    I learned about Sarah Hyland from Tigerbelly.
    Saw Chase O’donnelle from Where my Moms at w/ Christina P.
    First saw you on Tigerbelly then went on to see most, if not all, your episodes of TYSO.
    And knew about Eric Griffin from all the podcasts he’s done. I mean, he IS the Nate Dogg of podcasts after all. Lmao

    1:05:14 I went to my first stand-up show and it was at the Comedy Store a few months ago.
    It was a Monday night (right after the "hurricane") it was a bunch of people that were largely early in their comedy career. It was so interesting to see this conveyor belt of people go out and try something, to see how people quickly incorporate the hurricane into a joke. It was a great time including the good and not as good acts.

    I know there has to be a ton of ppl who feel the same as I do… even if they don’t comment. Dooooo it man!! Bobby was right that everyone will love to see you in person so even if you aren’t 100% confident, I think everyone will be so excited and receptive.

    I gotta hand it to you, that AGT skit was hilarious, even more so for just being a throwaway bit on this episode

    You should create some custom silk robes for your regulars like Erik and Adam similar to the Five Timers Club.

    Things I learned from Trash Tuesday
    1. Daddy can't get hard
    2. Rick plays his skits for his dates
    3. Bobby is a lucky man!

    Rick read a comment complaining about his podcast being too meta, now we get a podcast about being meta... ABOUT being too meta

    I think about it like this. There are going to be two "yous". The character that Erik sees in you, and the honest you that you know. They're separate entities coming together to make an act, and individuals in the audience will always connect more with one "you" or the other. You don't need to qualify the big character by breaking immersion with an "I'm kidding", and you don't need to qualify the honesty with an "maybe that's just me" explanation. You need to be able to convey with your delivery who you are being at that moment, and people will get it. People know when you're shitting on Esther you're being the big guy, and people know when you're talking about the need for coasters you're being honest. And both are funny in their own right when you make them to be, I think you just need the confidence to marry the two without feeling the pressure to keep the audience on the same page as you at any certain time. Walk them towards being interested in you enough overall, that even if they don't get "you" or the joke at certain points, they want to see it again to try to understand better. When you explain "oh this is just me being big" or "this is just who I am, I'm neurotic", you're just giving them the answer they should be wanting to find for themselves and they lose interest. Telling them you're being a character leads to "oh lets see how Rick will whip this one up into a frenzy", whereas just being that character leads to "Here we go, Rick is really getting into it now!". Telling them that you're honestly neurotic leads to "Oh lets see what he chooses to overanalyze here", just going into a neurotic honesty leads to "Oh this is weird that he feels this way, I've never thought about this before and it's interesting to hear him talk about it". I think you're at your best when you mix your character work and your honest self, and you don't qualify which you're being before or after. Let me figure that part out, let me be surprised by the direction you take something. And don't take all the thinking out of it by making it so obvious which direction I was "supposed" to go down.
    I love the podcast and hope to see you live someday when you feel ready to hit the road.

    Rick, get out there, man! Trust your instincts and get your mind out of the way! Go out, have fun, try some things out. It is all low pressure! You might realize that getting on stage will rejuvenate all aspects of your life, including this podcast. Great stuff!
