Wow watching jeselnik keep up with Theo creatively was a huge eye opener. Clearly a great comic but I hadn’t seen this versatility before. It’s crazy how much Theo brings out the playfulness in all the people he speaks with, luv it so much brother.
Theo couldn't keep up with Jeselnik, the latter asking Theo if he actually knows what a pyramid scheme is(and he didn't). Theo's funny, but in a fried-brain-surfer-stoner kind of way. Jeselnik sounded bored or confused with Theo most of the time.
Anthony has a podcast with one of his long time friends where he branches out more with his comedy. Its called JRVP and its a lot like this podcast was but with bit more structure
@LordSesshomaru86 Being bored in good conversation isn't an asset. Most ADHD people are well aware of what you're going to say before you say it, that doesn't mean you shouldn't let them say it or act like you know what they may say, It just means you're socially unaware if you do.
I’ve followed both of these guys careers from a distance for a long time, all the way back to the OG real world days. Watching them have a conversation is very strange feeling and I think you nailed why. Does anyone else feel like they break each other out of character in certain moments?
The bit about being a comic is about being funny and not just offensive and edgy is spot on. So many just want to trigger people without actually being funny
indeed! I've heard some decent perspectives in somewhat the same vein but the way he put it really hit the nail on the head and is a great way to explain it to other people w/o coming off too "political" or PC, bc I'm genuinely not PC at all (a leftist but not that kind of liberal)

I used to go to bars and act like I was telling a true story and just tell Anthony Jeselnik jokes with a straight face. Got everything from free drinks to death threats.
my heart is lowkey exploding lmao anthony was once my favorite comedian/podcaster until theo took his place so this is 11/10 for me absolutely thrilling
“Art is getting away with it. As a comedian if you pissed people off and didn’t make ‘em laugh, you didn’t get away with it and you’re just a troll” -Jeselnik This was the nugget of the whole podcast.
Absolutely. The best of the best have always walked this line and gotten away with it. I almost feel like the trans bit that Jeselnik has in his latest hour is only there to show other people that he can do it better than the mediocre comedians who can't.
great episode, like two good friends just hangin out chopping it up. never a disconnect or an awkward moment of conversation, no stuttering, everything flowed east asf this was a very chil experience
its great how easily and smootly they can riff off of each other ... too many comedians forget they are comedians on podcasts and stomp all over each other's jokes ... whereas here, they both just run with it, which is great. nicely done gentlemen.
@@dianem.99there can be no lifht without darkness. the depth of ones character and height of their soul can be measured by the level of contrast between the two inherent in them.
I remember Jeselniks joke about Eric Clapton's clumsy son and I still feel horrible for laughing 😅 That's the haunted house energy Theo was talking about 😂
I suggest you listen to Louis Ck on O and A 15 years ago where he got into a heated on air battle with a radio host that got mad at him for making jokes about that. Very funny
@@mjstevens92It's crazy how it became such a thing. There's another one with Louis and Nick Dipaolo where some guy got in trouble for insulting a white trash town, so they just shit on it for 2 and a half hours

Dream writers' room: these two, a McBride/Gillis (not both), a comedian that can do clean (Normand?), and Trussell in there as the wild card. I don't care if they get along or not. The product they produce would be unique and funny.
Almost two hours that felt like half an hour, two of my favorites together, amazing. I relate to them so much, like my thought process is kinda like Jeselnik's, but when i speak i often sound like Theo, and sometimes i end up either confusing or upsetting people lol, anyway i love them and i enjoyed this thoroughly.
This is probably the best podcast episode that I ever watched in my entire life. They are so different but both are doing a great job of understanding each other. This episode could be the weirdest, but instead was just a normal conversation. What a great interview, love u both!!!! "thought and prayers" from Brazil XD
Mr Show was EPIC. I’ve seen Anthony a couple times live. My wife and I just loved both shows. 🎙️ This was the best interview I’ve seen of AJ - went far deeper in many ways than most interviews with comedians that I have seen. Great job Theo.
Bag full of lies about clinical psychology and the authoritarian tendencies of his home government? Sure bud let's listen to you a non persecuted non Canadian and non clinical psychologist.
@@laurakain1524 Born raised and lived in Canada for 46yrs now. My undergrad was in psychology. I agree however, not to trust these fools online. That's why you should fact check Peterson. He lost and job and respect he began spreading false info among other things. I haven't heard him say anything truthful about Justin Trudeau, but he is mentally ill with bi polar so I'm empathetic to him. It's just sad to see when people don't know his history or the type of bad science and lies he engages in, and look to him for guidance.
I learned the value of a dollar really young. I remember asking for a bag of skittles at the grocery store. My mom said, "No, that's too much money." I said, "It's only $2." (It was a huge bag back in the 80's). My mom spun around and got nose to nose with me and hissed, "$2 is a lot of money!" The fury in her face made my life flash before my eyes.
Dang your mom thought the value of a dollar was two dollars? I don’t know if she was really good at teaching valuable life lessons or just really bad at math.
I get that, but also, it can be the environment she grew up in. A lot of the time that mentality can trap you in poverty, not always. Rich is as rich does.
The older I get the less I feel up to entertaining people. We use so much of ourselves for our jobs and our home life ..not much left. And people love to suck energy . Givers need boundaries because takers have none.❤

Theo not knowing what a pyramid scheme is, then after struggling to explain it, changing his mind that it was Reagonomics instead. That whole exchange was soo funny. After Jesselnik asked him, I saw Theo worried and thought, “this might be the first time Theo can’t pull a joke out of this”, but one thing I’ve learned is to never underestimate Theo.
Anthony talking about his fight being filmed and saying he’s glad it wasn’t posted online while talking with Theo who became known through “reality tv” and all that stuff is online is such smart and witty comedy
AJ recognising Theo saying "undocumented autistic" instead of 'undiagnosed autistic' and then following up with "get them out of the country" is too funny 😂
Jeselnik putting Theo on the spot, asking him about Pyramid scheme right after Theo explaining he hate not knowing stuff is fuckin gold.
Unreal 😂
It is basically the same thing tho

Genuinely surprised that Theo didn't know what a pyramid scheme is. 😮❤
anthony riffs off theo so well.
"With my audience... I'd want them to hear it from me." LOLLL
“Theo.. people LOVE AIDS.”
Best line
the way Anthony says so "you lose all of your friends...always" then glances at the camera had me dying.
39:01 "He's not Vietnamese... what is he?" "White". 😂
my heart is lowkey exploding lmao
anthony was once my favorite comedian/podcaster until theo took his place so this is 11/10 for me absolutely thrilling
gang
podcaster yea, comedian absolutely not
Here's me thinking I have no idea who the dude opposite Theo is 😅
@@seasonedbeefshe had his own show on Comedy Central and was on a few Roasts
Anthony def makes me laugh the most during his comedy specials. Theo the only comedian that makes me laugh with his stories.
“Art is getting away with it. As a comedian if you pissed people off and didn’t make ‘em laugh, you didn’t get away with it and you’re just a troll”
-Jeselnik
This was the nugget of the whole podcast.
Gold, indeed.
Absolutely. The best of the best have always walked this line and gotten away with it. I almost feel like the trans bit that Jeselnik has in his latest hour is only there to show other people that he can do it better than the mediocre comedians who can't.
The bit about being the biggest baby in Pittsburgh 😂 “what do they build you a statue or something?”
Riley Mau’s picture popping up during the autism talk and I about died 🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant moment! I howled with laughter 😂
great episode, like two good friends just hangin out chopping it up.
never a disconnect or an awkward moment of conversation, no stuttering, everything flowed east asf this was a very chil experience
its great how easily and smootly they can riff off of each other ... too many comedians forget they are comedians on podcasts and stomp all over each other's jokes ... whereas here, they both just run with it, which is great. nicely done gentlemen.
"I didn't know if it was crime, or like, a rash" lmfao
Just saw Theo on Sunday night in Akron… such a good show. Love him so much. And here’s to another awesome guest/podcast !
I was there too!
@@ttv_bkavgg2766 nice! It was so worth the 2 hour ride on a Sunday night haha .
Theo looking in every direction with no direction.
Jeselnik just focused and articulate.
30:30 has to be one of the most funniest things ive ever seen. Theo trying to explain what a pyramid scheme is comedy gold
Him talking about the comedian being Vietnamese and then the producer being like he's white cracked me up 😂😂
Anthony is basically theo if theo fully gave into the darkest of dark arts
That's the difference between an Atheist and a Believer.
Here's 🙏 Theo stays in the Light.😇
CEZA we meet again! Remember me from saying I see you in pod comments all the time? Hope all is well.
@@dianem.99imagine being an adult and thinking that
@@dianem.99there can be no lifht without darkness. the depth of ones character and height of their soul can be measured by the level of contrast between the two inherent in them.
@@Boatanga Imagine being named Noah and not believing that. 🤷♀️✌️
Jeselnik questioning Theo's lie about the childhood story about taking the shirt off is 😂, watching Theo squirm.
I love how Theo just cannot remember his own friend’s ethnicity, he thought Stavy was Vietnamese 😂
an bobby lee Chinese lol
@@Tormentality I know! Lol but Stavros being Vietnamese is even funnier to me 😂
@@TormentalityBobby is chinee
I remember Jeselniks joke about Eric Clapton's clumsy son and I still feel horrible for laughing 😅 That's the haunted house energy Theo was talking about 😂
I suggest you listen to Louis Ck on O and A 15 years ago where he got into a heated on air battle with a radio host that got mad at him for making jokes about that. Very funny
@laurakain1524 definitely gonna check it out! I love Louis
@@mjstevens92It's crazy how it became such a thing. There's another one with Louis and Nick Dipaolo where some guy got in trouble for insulting a white trash town, so they just shit on it for 2 and a half hours
My ex said that my son was about to fall off of a table. I told her that his last name isn't Clapton and that he will be fine.
@@laurakain1524 NAWT FUNNY
I wish I was confident in anything as much as Anthony is in everything.
Such a great duo! Anthony as the know it all and Theo just being wowed by everything he said was hilarious haha.
Theo went straight to it in this pod. No tour date announcements or anything. threw me off a bit!
Besides the fact, always putting out gold. Theo, youre a legend!
Anthony is a comedic philosopher. Very deep, extremely funny. Great guest!
Funny at times but seems more egocentric than what I like. Theo barely got to talk here. It felt like a Jessilnik monologue almost.
These two could be an unstoppable force if they joined together for a project like a tv show or something
Eh, Jeselnik is a soy boy, would probably get offended by something Theo says.
@@C23467 it’s hilarious how comedy fans are all freedom of speech until somebody says something they disagree with 😂 Get over it people have opinions that differ from your own and that’s good for comedy 😅
I'll nominate them over hart and the rock
@@wutflexWhos trying to silence anyone? Get a new bot, we're past that bs
Dream writers' room: these two, a McBride/Gillis (not both), a comedian that can do clean (Normand?), and Trussell in there as the wild card. I don't care if they get along or not. The product they produce would be unique and funny.
Almost two hours that felt like half an hour, two of my favorites together, amazing. I relate to them so much, like my thought process is kinda like Jeselnik's, but when i speak i often sound like Theo, and sometimes i end up either confusing or upsetting people lol, anyway i love them and i enjoyed this thoroughly.
Theo talking about blind people driving and feeling the braille speed bumps 😂🤣
This is probably the best podcast episode that I ever watched in my entire life. They are so different but both are doing a great job of understanding each other. This episode could be the weirdest, but instead was just a normal conversation. What a great interview, love u both!!!! "thought and prayers" from Brazil XD
Hey brothers! Hope everyone is having a tolerable day lol
Yes sir thank u, likewise sir.
I'm not my grandma cheated on me yesterday :/
HUMPDAY. Ready for this 11 hour shift💪🏼
@@SpaceGhostPerccbright side, you still have a grandma😂
Just sitting in my car/house behind a McDonald's, doin' dark arts, what could be better... 😶 fml
Jeselnik is the Eldest of FIVE - makes sense !!
Anthony is one of the best ones doing it today. There’s no one like him.
Yep. Dude is top tier
Theres 20 better than him doing it right now.
Yeah Anthony himself even acknowledged Rock is better
Anthony writes jokes though, he's not just telling a funny anecdote.
1:38:00 and just like that Anthony described Theo’s comedy style perfectly
😂😂😂
Theo just genuinely likes ppl and its such an endearing quality
I see Jeselnik and I'm watching wherever it is. But with Theo it's just that much greater!
I love both of these guys. What a hilarious match up. I love when they start doing a bit together.
I love how Theo and Anthony are like a sun and a moon. They are so different but so alike. It's so funny
These 2 are, IMHO, two of the most unigue comedians ever.
"I used to think if I stared at my teachers long enough they'd wanna have sex with me."
Holy shit that one took me out 😂😂😂 was not ready hahahah
Mr Show was EPIC. I’ve seen Anthony a couple times live. My wife and I just loved both shows. 🎙️ This was the best interview I’ve seen of AJ - went far deeper in many ways than most interviews with comedians that I have seen. Great job Theo.
Theo killin it with these guests lately
better than black listed psychologists. Jordan Peterson is just a bag full of lies.
clean your room@@Tormentality
@@Tormentalitycan't imagine how weak you are. Physically and mentally.
Bag full of lies about clinical psychology and the authoritarian tendencies of his home government? Sure bud let's listen to you a non persecuted non Canadian and non clinical psychologist.
@@laurakain1524 Born raised and lived in Canada for 46yrs now. My undergrad was in psychology. I agree however, not to trust these fools online. That's why you should fact check Peterson. He lost and job and respect he began spreading false info among other things. I haven't heard him say anything truthful about Justin Trudeau, but he is mentally ill with bi polar so I'm empathetic to him. It's just sad to see when people don't know his history or the type of bad science and lies he engages in, and look to him for guidance.
I learned the value of a dollar really young. I remember asking for a bag of skittles at the grocery store. My mom said, "No, that's too much money." I said, "It's only $2." (It was a huge bag back in the 80's). My mom spun around and got nose to nose with me and hissed, "$2 is a lot of money!" The fury in her face made my life flash before my eyes.
Dang your mom thought the value of a dollar was two dollars? I don’t know if she was really good at teaching valuable life lessons or just really bad at math.
Lmfao
I get that, but also, it can be the environment she grew up in. A lot of the time that mentality can trap you in poverty, not always. Rich is as rich does.
The value of a dollar is made up by people that don’t have to worry about not having said dollar.
BIG facts@@KingHobs
The older I get the less I feel up to entertaining people. We use so much of ourselves for our jobs and our home life ..not much left. And people love to suck energy . Givers need boundaries because takers have none.❤
I love that he can keep up with Theo’s humor!
Theo kept up with Anthony.
Anthony has a genius iq. He can keep up.
@@gregdorey3394
He didn’t understand the shirt joke Theo made. He was way too analytical and took it too serious. Anthony is a narc and feels threatened by theos success
@@kevinmcmillin870 with the multiple comments you've had on this video, it makes me wonder who's the actual narc ?
@@tommehzlol
Probably you, demon.
Theo thinking being 6 foot and up is normal kills me every time 😂 "oh 6 foot just normal height"
For a guy 6 foot is normal! Especially in sports
Got to meet him once and was shocked at how tall he was. Always thought of him as tiny but he’s a giant to me
@@jayweiss437815% of guys are 6ft or more, so it's def not the norm. The average height is 5ft 9. Pro sports is different cos you're talking about the most athletic guys in the world.
It's funny cuz everybody I hang out with is at least 6 ft so I also think it's normal. Then I'll be out in public and actually look around and notice how short some ppl are
I'm still thinking about when I was ordered to move to YINZburgh because the Men are all big sons of ironworkers!
Xo YINZ!
Mr. Jeselnik, never before have I noticed the depth of your reflection. Kudos to you, sir. The things you say show your wisdom
I legit almost died of laughter when Riley’s picture popped up 💀😂
Jeselnik sounds like a cross between Christopher Walken and Count Dracula.
As a Comedian, the WISDOM in this episode is unprecedented!
AN ABSOLUTE KILLER EPISODE! THIS IS THE VERSION OF JESELNIK I REALLY LIKE...... MUTUAL RESPECT FOR SURE WITH THESE TWO !
Theo not knowing what a pyramid scheme is, then after struggling to explain it, changing his mind that it was Reagonomics instead. That whole exchange was soo funny. After Jesselnik asked him, I saw Theo worried and thought, “this might be the first time Theo can’t pull a joke out of this”, but one thing I’ve learned is to never underestimate Theo.
Him not knowing was the joke. He 100% knows what a pyramid scheme is if he knows what reaganomics is 😂
@@bruhice6058 wow dude, how did you figure that out? You should be a detective.
@@jeandivine3it trickled down to him
Anthony talking about his fight being filmed and saying he’s glad it wasn’t posted online while talking with Theo who became known through “reality tv” and all that stuff is online is such smart and witty comedy
Saw Theo in Akron “This past weekend” can confirm that he is still good at stand up in my opinion lol
Did he have an opener?
Theo finally interviewing a Serial Killer
AJ recognising Theo saying "undocumented autistic" instead of 'undiagnosed autistic' and then following up with "get them out of the country" is too funny 😂
