lead. hey there i'm dennis miller and today on plus one talk a little shop with a comedian on the stand up sam morel chatting to a backstage funny cat he's up and coming i'm tanya 33 years old he's about to smack the ball as hard as you can smack it stick around for more with sam around on dennis miller plus one.

welcome to dennis miller plus one joined today by stand up comedian sam morel now sam released his 1st one hour stand up comedy special positive influence on comedy central 2018 and that's pretty quick turnaround of the 2nd one ready a 2nd comedy special i got this was released on february 10th on comedy central's you tube channel it's the 1st time that comedy central has exclusively released a special on the social media channel the estimable sam around sammy was shaken they now use the familiar sammy but some cats don't think. now we were talking a little shot before we went on these comedy specials people look at them and you're you get paid to go out and look like a stone killer but there's a lot agita branching up to doing one of these you got to pull it together tell me about your process well 'd you know you feel like you're ready before you're ready

because the crowds on the road are so giving so yeah sometimes i'm like i'm already in then i have to remind myself it's been 8 months like let it marinate never see what is a club in a major city that you would trust as a true arbiter i don't know if i did for any of you i don't trust any of them now because new york the seller is so giving in i think you just got to trust yourself you have to you have to like. you have to feel ready and then give it like another 3 to 6 months that's interesting so add a little it's like building a house it's always going to cost more and take another yeah yes is there a through line or is it just do you like the string to soften maine for years and i will always do a story at some point in the hour because just to break up the rhythm it's a lot of topical stuff a lot of me too jokes a lot of stuff about guns a lot of stuff about school shootings and anything that feels you know unfortunately timely point that's and that's a hard one to navigate my friend what do you. well i guess that would be part of the 3 months because you better make sure you're on the near side of that as

opposed to the far side i can go horribly askew it any given moment can it i want to make sure at this point when you're young you just i'll say anything that's funny but at this point i want to and i think when you when you do a little longer you're like i want this to feel right i want this to feel like i'm not going to regret this horribly because i look back at some jokes early on my god that's going to live forever and i'm thrilled that that's going to live forever. it's just business at some point now sam as you listen you know it's kind of stuff i look back on certain jokes and i'm sheepish about it i'm telling you you're over it now in a 2nd if you make the wrong joke that boggles my mind we were talking earlier there was a hiver though oh you're i mean i feel like i did give an example i did it i did an 8 minute joke about a dead baby in my last special the baby got eaten by an alligator disney so i was working out a joke one night just working out of the cellar and i said you know i mean to sound like one of those gun nuts but i think that baby were armed and still be with us

you know and someone walked out furious about this long e-mail and i just kind of some comics get pretty mad at that type of e-mail but i think well that's a bit right there so i start reading her email and every line is insane and a minute bit out of it so sometimes you can just turn the outrage in the material you know i agree with you that there are certain things where you can still strive but there are certain certain topics in this country and i do think your over what topics you think are the most dangerous for some odd reason right now it seems to be a particularly thin skinned time for transgenderism which i don't really get i listen i don't have anybody any guy comes to me at some point says i'm a woman i think god bless you you know you've got to you've got to figure that out i assume they're at a point where they're suicidal the fact that they're now fabregas a eggs always boggles my mind i used to make fun of bruce jenner. bruce jenner yeah when i didn't quite get what was happening i made fun of them and then to reach the

point where he's going to need s.p.n. courage award you realized you go after jenner now it's a headache you probably don't want but yet some people just don't write off an entire hour that is what and that's what fascinates me at least is sometimes you hear a joke they don't like and now they write off. after your entire hour and and it's like whatever happened to sid now one job maybe this isn't your top and maybe this one isn't for you it's not you it's not it's not for you and i admit that there are certain topics that maybe i don't love but i don't write off a human being based on one of those topics it is the good team played comes down so merrily my friend and my mom will read reviews on me that are bad and sometimes they're not even like bring up like a trip advisor if you like it's the wall street journal or the times panny me i'm like mom this is one old lady on trip advisor i got a one star review and it started with december 14th sam rail is inappropriate and i was like you given the time and date like it's pearl harbor you know like relax it's one bad show. you know what it's funny i was on

a trip recently with some other people i didn't know and they were asking me about comedians eidetic and i told them about norman yeah i think in terms of certifiable genius she always makes me laugh even when it's off court so i say well norman donald's a great comedian they had they don't know him they're a little. kind of tertiary early in gauged in the comedy business what anybody should own norman my book but there's maybe where you go if he's in your neighborhood you might want to see more right after i say that i realize it's not like you recommended brian regan or sebastian where you know it's going to be a kill shot on any given night i'm thinking more is genius but you never know when it can go off the road and i get it you know from the lady around a month later after this trip i met her and she said hey your friend norman picked . right away i know there is trouble to go out of norman is is appearing tonight and we're going to go over and see you and then the next day it's so funny i get back up e-mail said he you better call your friend i think so. and i could sit in

the living room of norman well this is in the arm well let's let's go there it's like when you're on a date with somebody early on yes what movies they like and you can tell us something when i'm with a comedian i always bring up norm he's a litmus test for me yeah about your feelings about the great norm macdonald yeah when a girl gives a movie a movie fan so if some of them on a day and i say what's your favorite movie the girl says love actually i'm like. is this really going to work you know you like cheesy rom coms i have no problem with a rom com but let's watch a good one let's watch annie hall when harry met sally or something you don't want to watch you just. you know love actually there's a road runner cloud head and i don't mind it to be i find it to be a just kind of a boring movie i don't know i would go maybe watch it once and i was just like she went she turned off played again sam and then made me watch that and i was like yeah this is enough to say that we have no future. now let me. when did you 1st

start doing comedy i know you're 33 now i was in an avocation right out of college yeah i was again it's funny when you describe years ago before you go rising star is so funny like 15 years in and you're like it's the only profession where you've been doing it 15 years you know like you're still a rookie you know if i was a football player i'd kill like 2 wives by now i was i think i was working more of the 2nd special people get thrown the 1st one and you know then then you see who the players are you get the one well i delivered i did a half hour with an album that i didn't hour and this is the 3rd hour material kind of given the comedy central and. yeah it's it takes a while to get that 1st one that you're pleased with and if you look back you know like what the hell was i doing that's horrible so i'm sure i'll hate this one in a few months i remember when i 1st you know i had always kind of in my head thought i'd like to try comedy but then i saw belzer one night a catch in the late seventies where he was just like anton levey meets star 10 yet

it was dark he was ripping it up i just got to do that i've got to try that when did you 1st when did it 1st click that you had the child i love stand up and i remember seeing david tell laiva carolina kind of just i've never seen someone that brilliant but funny and silly saying dark things that were just so i mean to tell can say so much in one line and i kind of i will always review. it was allowed to go in a duo with somebody just yeah. but i don't see that. yes i would tell really was one i mean i'd listen to comedy albums a lot member like listening to rock in the ninety's and listening. you hear that stuff and you think how i remember one time i was listening to a chris rock cd with the new and it was just brilliant writing and i was i was a kid i probably couldn't get most of it for 12 and my mom. she saw me laughing

what does he listen to she grabbed at. listen i just saw the look of horror on her face and what he was saying and then switched to her laughing so hard although that's kind of beautiful that he can say something in a premise that may be off putting and then that's and it will limit your mom to his cool yeah it's very cool to watch that your you forget the. good laugh and rock and stuff like that because they're always in the guise of being in the why is a killer parent totally and that was to me here to see that in some way that was to her it grabbed her yeah you know you were all in then and now iraq gets up 116 i think 15 i hear these stories did you 1st have the courage and tell me about the night you jumped up i was 18 it was horrible new york new york city i took a class at the comic strip with my friend joe mackie who still is still one of my best friends and i just met him in this comedy class at the comics and it was the class and whether we look at the comic strip the good member him yes i do he's

a great guy and he was very encouraging and to be honest some people like comedy class it was great for me because i was doing open mikes so that was one place where people would listen and be supportive and i needed one place the strip of our eyes started and i have some brutal memories but i do remember it gave me rhino skin at some point you cannot do this man to get in shut up and don't get in yeah it's up front yeah the strip really about the rhino skin that's crazy i remember my audition you know as you said going on 230 you go on after the regular show so then i auditioned and he pulled a card out the 6 i got dead last i got 6 so that's like after the regular show 5 comics were amateurs. i was just praying that the guy before me wasn't horrible he had a nervous breakdown on stage and walked 70 had to be 80 people before i had to go on an audition i'm just watching this guy like i hate this guy so much just get it get on stage you walk in everybody and he's walking everybody and then i file. and

he went on and i just i think the fact that i didn't panic they let me work there because i just kind of tried to talk to the last 10 people tried to weave in the jokes but. yeah so many nights like i just love the streets jargon to hear. the 700 say well you're going to 'd pay for this and in my head i'm like there's one more dude just give me 5 minutes i'm just walking them all watching them all walk you know when you look at it today said honest to god you talk about barking in times square just to get a few people in the room think about today with social media what a blessing that is i mean kids can put a block i don't like the old man who doesn't know the lingo but they put a blast up about a show you know to get more leash to not stand in their old and you still they still bark though now they still do that because when you're stoned you don't have any fans on social media and also i think it's a blessing and a curse because being a kid now like oh my god like the cyber bullying and the psychological torment that

most what they must go through like i'd rather get beaten up by bullies and science square and yeah exactly. the pretzel she really. she really tore me to shreds. did you did the barking help your chops because you know playing a flew no no no no no no because i was i'm not looking my energy i'm not a bore i'm not the guy was a comedy show tonight i was i was this no one is coming to see a show with this salesmanship there's no enthusiasm in my voice it seemed to me this is. there's nothing that puts me off a comedian more when it's too because i always think they not have the stuff because this is hardly a hard sell here i just want to hear a couple things of nuance where i go it's an intriguing mind when it's all energy i think is there anything you're a amik if you're a person in times square from like down brasco they want to what we got the best show ever and we get the best food next to a bubble gum shrimp if you ever had that this is a 5 star meal carnival bar right after the break. who.

returns to answer some rapid fire questions it's a rorschach test say there dennis miller plus one. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by the curse of those with. no dares thinks. we dare to ask. because the slowness of the blue of them so money. to build your school the local

walls before. much of those who heard it's a preview are mostly other movies who see him will lose most who will. move. move when he. will show you the look beautiful the immediate sense to look for a good. movie the muslim also his girls will be a few films for good girls. to go to shows a look why do you distribute belonging to the show explorer tool you should go. to starbucks to order some to get to meet until it was the little mist thinks you look it is it's. the same stuff from understand statistics movements they mashed old church clock struck the president and the speech from this morning to students.

as we have petitions to toast news for 2 snippets almost and you will because that is the cousin with you swear your supporters to your machine station shouldn't feel you should cook door for one whose job is the request. a welcome back to dennis miller plus one with comedian sam morale. yeah baby i want to see what matters are mine work just like ones out there you know like patti rafter that someone who or something who inspires you i mean anyone who just pursues you know great writing in any way i'll be listening to leonard cohen and i think mandisa great writer in his music so someone's going to go outside of comedy

as they want to come because. he controls a room with minimal energy and i kind of respect that he can remember so much of the garden and he just controlled everyone a room that big with this low energy with a how do you see that i always like that play where a guy hold a little bit back and make them come the is so i can see the energy in you guilty pleasure. just junk i've been drinking less alcohol so junk food has been real like . sugar just garbage fruit anything anything that gives me any rush i remember one time i was in a in a deli like it just a korean deli with jeff ross and david tell it like 4 am and hell is just grabbing all these candies because he's sober now and he's just explaining the different rush each candy gives you and all this is whole areas to be just like the sugar is and sugar is horrible for you this is killing you right but it's better than the other stuff that's killing the guy a break and. quite. likeable armistice would break the border.

that's what it is really cadbury choc is this one. 3rd show and i got a wine go to and i smell carmello you need a boost try to hide to careen candy will live to write. something we should all be paying more attention to but your look on it tells me you're not a business people want to pay attention pay attention what you pay attention to what do i pay attention to is my own as a grab your of course think about it it's on every news networks of course it grabs you i mean when i hear widespread panic i know that's how they get their ratings by just fear that's all it is but when i'm on the road and i fly every week yeah and when i share microphone with 3 comics i've never met at every gig yeah sure it's do what you can i'm no longer vamping coronavirus spores you know if you don't know what i do today i said i've got to do my part here so. you know how i can tell it's

bad is that i heard that wal-mart is doing $30.00 check ups and you know how fucked our country is when wal-mart decides to step up to the plate we've got a red light special. it's like it's a greeter does it. now but it's either yeah but you can tell it's bad when when wal-mart stepping up and when they decide to be good any time i see amazon or any company that's major doing no good if the you know me happened to the absolutely huge monolith all sudden becoming the mom and pop shop i got to think of more but corona really is. it really is i mean this is it's something it's simply something we get it only it's been italy's been known to do things and 50 history shows a semi thing. though embrace it's then they'll keep everybody indoors in the embrace that again they had their little bit reactionary over there i no i don't think biden is a fix fox i saw biden speaking today and i remember thinking it looks to me like

the only thing he doesn't have at this point is coronavirus versus trump it's going to be who would you prefer a drunk driver or someone who keeps falling asleep at the wheel. he never steps sort of another step sort of debate stage and i can this see him saying such an easy play for him to go i will not normalize this man i know he's going to do that he doesn't want to illicit drugs got his weaklings i don't think biden at this point is exactly no coward enough to isolate them and work on them i like that only options are just old old it's so bernie it's like bernie i kind of relate to that because he he debates the way argue with every girlfriend i've ever dated you know i mean look he knows he doesn't have a shop he just wants to get his ideas heard that's that's me every relationship i respect that stranded on a deserted island what 3 things do you bring with you. i mean you can't say a boat right so let's. say in a desert island my girlfriend so i can have someone to complain to yeah i don't

even want sex i just want an ear to listen to me whine that's all i need. and. one of those chargers for my phone one of those i would least like it like a 2nd birth and the. 3rd one i don't know what you know it's funny 78 you have such a bible baggio i feel like i'm asking you to. dinner with his kid he's so do or and maybe what iodine tablets so i can drink some of the water that the move etc let me off the beautiful. something on your bucket list manuf what do you want what do you got in life you know i don't know i didn't want to i'm just like grateful when i am healthy and my family's healthy and you know my girlfriends like happy and i just want to i just want peace and happiness and i that's all i want are you happy right now i don't know i can't tell do you think that i sometimes

feel when i'm particularly happy i jinxed it if i acquiesce to happiness and yeah well now what do i get hammered from left field or it's weird i get nervous when things are going well and something something bad is coming to me right around the corner seems that a legit feeling to me though people always act like that some outlier emotion i know. things are going horrible you think right around the corner there might be a silver lining if you're in silver lining ville whack i couldn't allow if i'm happy but i can i feel lean. i know how to make myself happy a little better than i did you know his medicine if you have tools but i don't know i would say i'm not unhappy i'm not i'm kind of i drift sam we put up that you were coming on and some of your friends put up some social media questions let me equerry you this is an odd one that you always hear at parties and i don't know the comedians quite think like this but catherine marks on facebook says what's the funniest joke you've ever heard you know there are jokes there are codify like have

a i am big pentameter and then they're funny things that people say that can wipe you out do you remember any particulars or devastated i mean there's any rodney dangerfield line kills me any david tell any david told jokes off the album skanks for the memory. of ever heard he had a joke when he said you remember when you're young you think your dad is superman and then you grow up and you realise he's just a drunk who wears a cape. but me but really you know on so many levels that's like a layered one liner man and so there's a comedian david feldman who was a san francisco guy and it always made the pain of him and being up dressed as a clown going out to do kids' parties was one of those things because he had the most sardonic thing but the make is is rice boy you had to go out and do these daytime telegrams and that but he said to me once this is the it is this is brief of an amount of words you can use and still be brilliant he said i think that english is the crime to look crime of languages. that's really good i mean it was

like well my kaplan of comics had a joke that i'm jewish. i will use german describe jewish am. i love jokes like that lester tracing on facebook is comedy central easy to work with and what made you choose comedy central over netflix or the other outlets well every network passed on this hour so that's why a lot of myself if i every network that i. 2 with comedy central and then i decided to come out here and run the hour and everyone passed netflix h.b.o. amazon and then. i went back to new york to run it and there was the chance that h.b.o. was interested and they kind of said they weren't and then i said this is too good an hour to just come back to l.a. and i said all right so i came back here and ran again up and went back to new york when again nothing and i told my agent i'm hiring people to shoot it right way i

talked to jim gaffigan and i said what would you do in my scenario and he said shoot you can't wait for these idiots to come around on you so i trust him listen and that are you to channel my daughter in law works there producer on a show called it stars a young lady i don't mean to miss the show but its allies are close she gives her name is one of those younger women like 21 does a young girl frenetic life thing comedy do you know that the for they don't give out numbers are pretty hard not worry about given you download but 1st the 1st episode of the season 3 got 85000000 downloads telling me about the show eliza and i go i don't know or i don't think i'm supposed to know she's is very popular and then i said hey how that roll up 85000000 downloads well i think you got to make your own you have to make your own noise because you can't wait for them to come around you and a lot of the comics i looked up to it took them a while you know it's not like they were overnight sensations there's a couple here and there but you know everyone passed i knew was

a good hour and i was proud of it so shot of myself then once it was shot comedy central said we could put this on our you tube channel and they did that with my last one but there was an ad every 3 minutes and that was tough for me and now you know i'm compete against the best comics in the world you are never break it up no way. they are they said we'll put it out no ad so the the money hit was pretty rough but also. you know you get way more yeah you do it all in cars there look africans genius i don't remember him break and when he was still in the amniotic sac at some point you. no you got to hang in there and and i felt like i was kind of pushed by oh like i had the right guy david tell i told it was doing this he offered a lot of money to put up and i couldn't accept because i didn't think i would make it back so they gave us a great many and you know those guys tell me that this was the right way to go and you know it makes i've always said that rejection never makes you a worse comic as long as you don't become super better i've seen some people get

really better and that will do un but if you just have a little chip it's not it's not going to hurt yeah it's not going to hurt your i've got a thing shway your chip out there. you can't make brutish you know want to go up there with a hunchback but no nice little thing a nice little chip and you know i think the next hour will be even better i think you just got to keep doing your own thing and you can't you can't control and they take notice but you know that's the one good thing about social media is you can kind of you can make your own now i love season it by the horns and go on on you tube channel and believe me you have got a great gloat story down the road when this all you know listen everybody loves a story where i remember that post on me for that. jeremy young ass who was your favorite comedian growing up i know the tell but i was wondering if there's anybody of the older school and who do you look up to now that you're in the business i can tell obi wan is a tell who did over you and who did you dig kind of like yoda in the new one will

know everyone you would believe. i mean dangerfield kill me to me every line and back to school is cold it's just i love simple one liners i love. carland was insane to me rock rocks for a few specials were just like next level to me. i want to thank comedian sam burrell and give me the special name again brother because i've got someone you know if it does is a new one. it was released on february 10th on comedy central's you tube channel i want to pound that drum because i can tell you just from talking to this cat i'm watching it tonight and i can tell you should too it's i got this it's released on comedy central's you tube channel now take the time and find a way because i think morale has something to say and i think he sees it he says it in a cool matter when he says that he walks 70 out of the 80 people on the hook there it is especially good to meet you brother to have about you know i got tommy john from avoidant of ours.
