From Carolla One Studios in Glendale, California, this is The Adam Carolla Show. Adam's guest today, comedian Jared Freid.
And now, Adam Carolla.

**SPEAKER_9** (2:05)
Yeah, get it on.

**Adam Carolla** (2:07)
Got to get it on. No choice. They'll get on your mandates. You get it on. Thanks for tuning in. Thanks for telling a friend. Love that about you. Jared Freid is in the studio. Very funny standup comedian.
He's got a standup special. It's not available just yet, but it will be available very soon. And when you go to Netflix, you just tap it, you click it, and then you hit the reminder button, and then it'll be waiting for you the second it comes out of the oven.

**Jared Freid** (2:32)
Love that reminder button. Need it, love it, want it. Thank you for having me. It's a pleasure. I mean, I gotta say, I go way back with this show.
Music brings you back to a certain time. I used to download your radio show in 15-minute increments. It was my first podcast. And I would put it on my iPod Nano and go to the gym for work before work. And so it is really a pleasure to be here with you.

**Adam Carolla** (2:59)
Well, thank you.

**Jared Freid** (3:00)
And, you know, talk a little noise, you know. It's a, but you know, the special, yeah, it's on the little preview page. You can watch a bit from it. It's all about, it's an hour about going to the beach with my parents.

**Adam Carolla** (3:12)
Yeah, it's very well crafted. Thank you. I watched it because I got a preview of it.
When it comes to the joke that they choose for the preview on Netflix, and this is not intended to be driven or pointed toward yours because I haven't watched yours because I got the full episode. But sometimes you watch those comedians' things and you look at them and you go, not that funny for the 90-second snippet. And you're like, I hope the comedian has a say in what this is. And it's not just some editor who has no sense of humor pulling a clip.

**Jared Freid** (3:53)
You get a say, but it has to be a minute uninterrupted.
So choose a few minutes. They say to you, give us a few options of a minute from the special. And then you start hacking away at your baby. And it's stressful. Because I want someone who's never come in contact with me to go, oh my god, he's speaking to what I want to hear about. And it is about my parents. It's about the millennial boomer relationship. It's all things I could say to you, we could talk about for an hour. But like, I need you to, and you know, when you go into a room, you go into a standup club, I'm here for the show. And at the end, I'll decide whether it was good or bad. On Netflix, do I want this? Is this how I want to spend my night? So yeah, it makes me, it's incredibly nerve wracking to choose that minute.
