The Panda Bear, Matt Muehling on the electric guitar, Jon Deas on the keys. And this is the one and only D Madness, live in the flesh, ladies and gentlemen.

Oh lordy.

Another banger ready for you here tonight. This is it. Welcome everyone to the number one live podcast in the world.

We did it. Before we get started, here's a little bit more from the amazing sponsors that made tonight's show possible. Hi everybody. Kill Tony is sponsored by Bluechew. So, you want to make your bedroom noisy again? I know you do, you little freaks. Because right now, the only noise in your bedroom is that app with the rain sounds, thunderstorm, babbling brook. Come on. Give your neighbors a reason to remember your name. Wake up and get to work. Bluechew Gold gets it done. Four ingredients in a single tablet. Two get you hard and two get you in the mood. Get up and stay up. Viagra had a nice run. But Bluechew Gold is the goat now. And here's the beautiful part. Afterward, you'll either sleep so well that no leaf blower on earth can wake you, or you'll be having morning sex so loud the gardener asks you to keep it down. You deserve the best. Redban deserves whatever accidental swipes he can get. Tell the people how Bluechew keeps you in the game, buddy.

Brian Redban (3:49)

Redban? Swipes? Don't tell my wife. Whoa. There's a reason Bluechew is number one. It's the number one brand for better sex. Experience it yourself at bluechew.com.

Every single week, I book this puppy just the way I like it. And my god, is this one special? You know, sometimes it's the dogs. You know what I mean? Sometimes it's a little bit of a, you know, maybe it's a little hip. Maybe it's a little old school. Maybe it's a little this, a little that. Maybe it's a fucking couple celebrities. Maybe it's a couple of the top young rising comedians in the world. This one is so special because one of our guests is an actual fucking super legend. Tonight's show multiple time. Movies. Four US presidents have hired him to perform for him.

I could go on and on.

Over six million people have gone to his theater in Branson, Missouri. And I mean a fucking legend. He's a comedy store guy. He has not only his name on the wall, but he has one of the I think 10 big neons up there with Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, all of these super legends. He's one of those guys from that era. And he's here tonight for the first time ever. And I've matched him up strategically with truly the biggest, fastest, top rising comedian in the world. A man who has, there's nothing that can stop his trajectory from being the next big arena comic. Ladies and gentlemen, your guests tonight are Yakov Smirnoff and Ari Matti.
