Bert compares how pretty women get scooped up too fast in comedy to how certain gatekeepers used to only book Brooklyn hipster comics until Guy Code proved there was a bigger underserved audience.
- Tim decided to start paying attention to Logan Paul after recognizing him as a cool guy interested in comedy.
- Tim almost worked with Logan Paul and once told Rogan he'd invest in making him president if he had unlimited money.
- Comics were stuck in their ways and dismissed internet guys, while Tim took Logan Paul seriously as a personality with a huge following.
- Meeting Logan Paul changed Tim's mind—he turned out to actually like comedy and be a pretty cool person.
- Tim got flak from some fans for talking to internet personalities like Jake Paul; he had Jake on his podcast at a Bitcoin convention in Miami with the Winklevoss twins.
- Tim sat on stage at the Bitcoin Convention right after Jack Dorsey, interviewing the Winklevoss twins and Jake Paul—an absurd and hilarious moment.
- Tim will talk to anyone with no agenda, including reaching out to David Hogg from Portland for his show.
- The guest remarks that Tim's vibe has always been authentically himself, and describes meeting him as the kind of experience where you realize you're not done getting to know someone.
- When Tim met Tom, he was struck by Tom's confidence and self-belief.
- The difference between people who focus on micro wins versus those who look at the bigger picture and aim for larger directions.
