Discussion of real bear sightings in New Hampshire, bear spray vs. human mace, dangers of riptides in the Hamptons, and reigniting the ocean-versus-woods debate.

In this bit8 moments
  • Tim gets funnier as the sun goes down in the woods, especially on a multi-day camping trip.
  • What happens to people on the second or third day camping without restaurant food — they become themselves and appreciate things more.
  • Going to Guatemala with a friend made Tim appreciate America and the ability to drink tap water when he got home.
  • Tim rejects the idea of taking comics to the Bronx at night to shoot, calling it too dangerous.
  • Middle-aged gay guys on the beach are more dangerous to many people than lions, and tigers are easier to deal with than Jewish people.
  • The ocean is tough and powerful — Tim's been in riptides and almost died, though he didn't know to swim diagonal at the time.
  • The ocean is more powerful than the woods, and Tim doesn't enjoy it the way he enjoys nature in general.
  • Tim concedes the ocean is more powerful than the woods but insists the woods are better anyway.
