Colin Quinn (0:13)

Hello, Joe.

Joe, that was fun last night. Let me just start by saying, what a fun time at the club, the green room and everything else. And here's what I was talking to you, head of security at the club. Here's what I love about the club. I worked at the club. I had a great weekend a couple of months ago, is they keep the audience in line. Nobody's heckling without getting booted.

Is that not the most important thing in comedy that nobody talks about?

Joe Rogan (0:41)

It's very important.

Colin Quinn (0:42)

It's unbelievable.

Joe Rogan (0:44)

And unfortunately, there's so many crowd work clips that get put out on Instagram. Right. People are now thinking that they want to be a part of the show. And so I see people much more often chiming in and yelling things out and they think they're going to be a part of things.

Colin Quinn (1:02)

Yeah. And even when you go, when you try to be nice on the first line, you go, that was okay, sir.

Then they try again, you're like, listen, you p... Oh my God, but that's what I love about your club. Everybody there just has the energy like, we're going to tell you right now, another word, you're out. That's how it should be.

Joe Rogan (1:18)

Yeah.

Colin Quinn (1:18)

Because as you know, there's no, nobody heckles once.

Joe Rogan (1:22)

Right.

Colin Quinn (1:23)

Nobody's ever heckled once.

Joe Rogan (1:24)

Nobody heckles sober either.

Colin Quinn (1:26)

And nobody heckles sober. And they just like to start trouble.

And the green one was fun. And even though I didn't go on, it was, I also didn't go on because you have to understand the language where I was like, you're like, you want to go on? I go, I don't really want to go on. You go, that's cool. But really, then you're supposed to say, the crowd really wants you to go on. And I'm like, Joe, I don't want to bump anybody. No, you wouldn't be bumping anybody.

We'll just cut Tony's time down. Joe, I don't want to be that guy. You're like, don't be ridiculous.

Joe Rogan (1:52)

Oh, I have to dance with you.

I didn't know you wanted to dance. If you want to dance tonight?

Colin Quinn (1:57)

No, I got to leave and go to Seattle tonight.

Joe Rogan (1:59)

What the fuck?

Colin Quinn (2:00)

I got to go. I would love to, yeah.

Joe Rogan (2:02)

Are you performing tonight in Seattle?

Colin Quinn (2:05)

Maybe I can change my flight. Well, let's see. Maybe I can change it.

Joe Rogan (2:08)

Move it around. Let's play your flights out of Austin. It's a wonderful hub.

Colin Quinn (2:12)

It is.

It's great. It keeps booming every time I was here. Last time I was here, it was COVID.

Joe Rogan (2:16)

Yeah, I don't think it's going to get too much bigger.

Colin Quinn (2:18)

I think we've reached peak. You think so?

Joe Rogan (2:19)

Yeah, yeah, I think that's about it.

Colin Quinn (2:21)

You think Shane Gillis was the last citizen they allowed in?

Joe Rogan (2:23)

No, there's a few more coming. Joe DeRosa just got a place here.

Colin Quinn (2:27)

He did?

Joe Rogan (2:27)

Yeah, and Joey Diaz is getting a place here.

Colin Quinn (2:29)

I can't believe the two Joe D's are going to be here.

Joe Rogan (2:32)

Let's go.

Colin Quinn (2:33)

That's great.

Joe Rogan (2:34)

Joe Diaz and Joe DeRosa is a fierce combination.

Colin Quinn (2:37)

I know, but I spoke to Joe DeRosa yesterday. I deliberately didn't go to the chicken place because of Joe DeRosa.

Joe Rogan (2:41)

Really? Why?

Colin Quinn (2:42)

Because when he recommended it, it just bugged me his confidence when he goes, you got to try this chicken place. And I was like, oh.

Joe Rogan (2:50)

Gus's fried chicken and it's phenomenal.

Colin Quinn (2:53)

I just don't like that Joe is positioning himself as the new gastronomic expert in comedy.

Joe Rogan (2:58)

Right, because he owns a sub shop. By the way, it's a good sub shop, though.

Colin Quinn (3:01)

I heard it's amazing.

Joe Rogan (3:02)

It's fucking great.

It's fucking great. He brought some over when they were doing Moon Tower. He was in town. He brought some subs over. They were fucking tremendous. He's got a great place.

Colin Quinn (3:13)

Yeah.

Joe Rogan (3:14)

I always look at the Instagram photos. I'm like, oh my God, it looks so good.

Colin Quinn (3:17)

They said the bread's amazing. Everything's amazing.

Joe Rogan (3:19)
