They gush over Joe Rogan's Comedy Mothership club in Austin, and Bert tells the story of getting Ron White to come down and perform 'Tater Salad' live after years of not doing the bit.
- Tim says he'd like to keep doing big shows like Ron White, maybe not frequently but staying active out there.
- Every comic now films their material for the algorithm and edits clips, whereas they used to be told they couldn't film at clubs.
- Tim gave a guest spot to a young opener at Joe Rogan's club who immediately asked to set up a camera for a Mothership clip instead of just performing.
- Young comics treat him and older performers like dinosaurs, wanting a viral TikTok clip over five hundred hours of podcast.
- Tim jokes they'll eventually be like Mötley Crüe, going to the VMAs and getting rejected by people they admire.
- Tim admits the thing that genuinely flips him out is that one day Joe Rogan's podcast won't exist, even though it's been constant in his life.
- Larry King kept broadcasting until the day he died, and Tim suspects Joe might do the same.
