[Bit 1]

- Yeah, so I've been doing comedy

for about a year and a half, give or take.

And people, they ask you, how do you come up with jokes?

What's your writing process?

Sorry, I'm out of breath.

And I tell them, "Well, it's pretty simple, man.

It's a lot like my ex.

You know, after a few drinks,

they really start hitting me, you know?"

[Bit 2]

You know, I'm built kind of like Bugs Bunny,

but, you know, I eat more than carrots.

I eat ass too.

[Bit 3]

I also kind of look like Jesus if he sold fentanyl, you know?

[Bit 4]

I don't get it, like, he's kinda gaslighting us talking about,

"Oh, I came back from the dead in three days."

Fuck, whatever, dude, we do that nowadays, no problem.

We got Narcan, dude.

It's the big fucking deal.

He needs to come back down here and see things

that changed a little bit.
