Comedy Doesn't Matter, and Radio Silence from Your Mom's House
from #174 - Brendan Schaub | The Tim Dillon Show · #174
4 min
Tim reflects on the absurdity of comedy hierarchies and hype, previews the upcoming Brendan Schaub interview, and complains good-naturedly about being ghosted by the Your Mom's House podcast/Dr. Drew after missing a scheduled appearance.
- Tim explains why people think he hates Brendan Schaub: he made a joke calling him the greatest comedian in the world, which is funny because it's not true.
- Comedy is stupid and doesn't matter; comedy snobs are dumber than the comedians themselves.
- Tim works hard on jokes for unique perspective, but the funniest thing he says is often something simple like a T-Mobile phone AIDS joke.
- People's opinions about which comedians deserve success don't matter because we're at the end of the empire and about to ration water.
- Tim spent an hour with Brendan Schaub discussing online hate, how he started in comedy, and claiming he's a better swimmer than Brendan and Joe Rogan.
- The interview covered hot-button issues including transgender athletes and kids playing football.
- Tim missed the Doctor Drew episode and lied about it, claiming he was on the beach when there was a photo of him on Instagram.
- Tim tried to reschedule Doctor Drew for another time since he was flying in that day, but hasn't heard from them since.
- Tim jokes that Doctor Drew would tell people heroin is good for them if a heroin lobby paid him enough money.
