The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Oh, it's always, yeah, it's always like a big, Millie Vanilla's a big fat guy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
He got hit by a golf ball. Yeah, I saw his. He's so cool. I want that. I was watching him. He's got that really cool golf set back there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Just donk. I hit a kid with a golf ball. He was all right, though. Luckily, I didn't get a good swing on it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, yeah. They're really... Yeah, if you get a nice skull worm burner, you could kill a duck if you just... Really? You ever see those videos of pieces of head just snapping?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, and that was everything. When I was first starting, your whole thing was you have to get a sitcom or you don't have any money.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Randy Johnson. The big unit. He was so tall. He was like halfway to the thing. Oh, no.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That reminds me of college. I went to school for acting, which is the dumbest thing you can ever go to school for, by the way. What did you learn? Nothing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Honestly, I learned to be a worse actor. I really didn't believe that. It was like Shakespeare and stuff. I'm terrible at that. All my teachers thought I was just terrible. And they did this one class...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Literally, it was called Movement for the Actor. Now, imagine your parents. My parents paid for college. It was so nice of them. I don't have any debt. But what a waste of my parents' money. This is an hour class. Movement for the Actor. So they'd put on music. Everybody danced to it. It was one of the things. And then you're supposed to just creatively do whatever. Are you going to pay for that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. And I remember Zach Galifianakis, it was pilot season. Remember that whole thing? Oh, yeah. That was huge. Like, pilot season's coming up.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Like $50,000. $50,000. So I'm in my head like, what the fuck? This doesn't make me a bad, so you're fake. And then this teacher was like, we're doing Shakespeare. And he's like, bring in tights next week for the Shakespeare performance. And I'm like, I'm not buying tights and coming in here with tights. Like, why would I have to do that? Because back then, they dressed in their normal clothes.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You know what I mean? When Shakespeare wrote the thing, they were just in their clothes. It wasn't like you had to be in tights to do Hamlet. So I just didn't get tights. And they come in, he's like, where's your tights? He's like this very effeminate guy who hated me. And he goes, where are your tights, Kyle? And I was like, oh, I forgot my tights.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And he's like, make sure you bring your tights next week. And I was like, okay. So next week, no tights. And I go, oh, I forgot my tights. I was like, darn it. I wish I brought my tights.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That's probably your best acting. Yeah, I was really good at acting like I wanted to bring my tights. So he goes, get mine. They're in the back. So these green tights.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, I had to put them on. And I looked like Kermit the Frog because my legs are like the size of a 12-year-old Korean girl. And I came out with my, it was disgusting.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
By the way, and I did tell him, I said, listen, because I tried to negotiate before I put his tights on. I'm like, but they didn't, they just wore their clothes like back then. And he was like, get the tights. Like, I want to see you in tights.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I love that, working on my craft. By the way, that's such bullshit. But he was aware.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
But you didn't even apply it to your own life. When I was a teacher, I didn't think I'd ever be an actor.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
He didn't see the musical. Like a medley, like a review. A medley of show tunes. I love that, sounds like a great show. Wait, you came there to see his feet? That was like the way you went there?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
They were little, little tiny feet. I had a date of this girl once and she was like, I have a shoe show. I'm a shoe model, right? And I'm like, oh, a shoe show? Okay. A shoe model? Yeah, foot. A foot model? Like she would model shoes. Okay, like open-toed shoes? I just would, like, I didn't know, but that's what she would say. She was going to do this. And she always had like dollar bills.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
She always had cash, you know? And I found out years later, she was a stripper. Shoe show is when you have no clothes on. And I just thought she was a shoe.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Maybe. She had great feet. But another stupid, this was even the dumber class than the moving around class, was called Interpretation for the Actor. So this week, you would read a play like Streetcar Named Desire, and then you would come in and you would do your interpretation of it. So the weirder you were, the better grade you got, okay? Oh boy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So one guy comes in, he did Streetcar, and he put, there was a big mirror, you know, because it was also a dance room, and he took a lipstick and he wrote whore within lipstick.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Then he pulled his pants down, started fucking the mirror, and then he turned to us and he goes, fuck you, and he left, and then everyone started clapping, and I was like, I gotta get the fuck out of here. Listen to what I, so I'm like, cause I got like a, like a D on my, whatever I did. So I'm like, I'm going to be fucking weird. My next, I didn't read any of the things.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I like, I have trouble reading. I don't know how to read. I just never learned. So I go, I go, I have a glass menagerie is my book. Didn't read it. Whatever. I just went in there. I got an egg, okay? And I took one of my mother's Waterford crystal glasses and a string. And I took the string and I was just like, nobody sails the seas if they don't find their way.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Then I clipped the string and the glass broke. fell and broke. Then I went outside, you could see, and I buried an egg. It makes no fucking sense. And then the guy said, what grade do you think you should get? And I said, an A. And he gave me an A. That was my college work. He's brilliant. By the way, I'm working on my craft. By the way, are you really working? Like, when you work...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. And when you walk in, they know they don't want you. They also know you're broke. Yeah, and you have that desperate energy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Meryl Streep was an amazing actress when she was 20, and she's amazing now. She never, no, are you working four hours a day getting better at acting? No, you're not.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
They talk like they're like working their piano skills all day and four days a year. Crap. You know, the problem, what we did was, is we were like, we, not me at all, but when they were like, oh, let's make some more money. We'll have an award show and then we'll make money. That's why there's the Oscars. Oh, yeah. But the actors thought we're doing something really great.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
The Oscars are like the Olympics for actors. Yeah. And it's, I mean, the Olympics, at least you're like, I don't know, doing something you can quantify, but like a nine year old, a nine year old won an Oscar. Like how, like, did not be like a nine year old, like best surgeon. It's like, it's a thing you can do or kind of can't do.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
There's a little bit of learning, but certainly not movement for the actor.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
No. It's not working on your craft. It's not even like painting. It's not even like when you crunch a ball and you throw it into a basket at work.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, it's about personality. We love the person, like Jeff Goldblum. Love that guy. Christopher Walken. Jack Nicholson. Amazing. There's amazing actors. You like the people who party. Yeah. Crazy wild people. You know, the story behind it to be. Yeah. I miss Jack Nicholson.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Off-putting is what it is. Death. I didn't get any. I never got a sitcom. I auditioned probably for 1,000. I don't know why someone didn't say, you're not good at this. No one told me. You could have been a Big Bang Theory, ironically. I could have been. You would have been a fucking major get for them. I would have been a huge get for them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
He was the best. That old Jack. He was the just. He was the best. Did you ever see him flirt with Jennifer Lawrence? Did you ever see that video?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
He was 1,000. Yeah. Wait, Jamie, do you have that? I don't mean to run this show, but it's a good schooling on like, he's so cool. And this girl's way too young for him.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
What movie was that? He stayed cool, and he makes that eye contact, and then...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
If I read that movie, I think I'd be like, this is boring. There Will Be Blood is just boring.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
At the end, he's talking to that guy who's religious, who's like, can I have some of your, and he's like, no, there's no more oil under you. He's like, I drank it up. And he just made the analogy of a straw, like drank up his thing, and then he beats him with a bowling pin. He's like, I'm finished. One of the best endings to a movie.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I had actually, I did get one of them. Now this is a story, let me tell you this story. So I go in, and you know you get like a callback, okay? First casting director, and then you're like, please like me. Then you're like, callback. And like, oh, they like me. Second callback. Now I'm getting like real nervous. It was a show, Happy Family. Have you heard of that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So good. Choices, they say in school. It's the choices you make in your performance.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. I mean, he becomes those people where he comes. But to live with that guy would be probably a nightmare during that movie.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
At least he does back it up. Do you know what I mean? He hasn't done anything too crazy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't like when they go too far with it. Might have been rumors, too, but...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
The thing that I found interesting about that was his accent didn't, because he kept an American accent when he was screaming. Interesting. I found that quite interesting. Yes, indeed. Yes.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
What was that psycho movie? American Psycho. So good.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I remember him saying, he's dropping on the set, and he goes, my friend Don told me that on my gravestone it should say, it's not a great plot, but Larroquette's in it. He told that funny joke. Boy.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That's you. The feed is always, they forget there's a feed.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That's a good gig, though. I mean, shit, that was like...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Begins with an S. Stanford and Son. Yes. Who wrote it? You're not going to believe it. Quincy Jones.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Don Barris? Nope. He's like, what are you people doing here at this hour?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You get to, because you're getting a little famous, and then you have eight lines. Yeah. And you said they could do whatever you want. And you're like, blah, blah, blah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, I love how long careers can be. He's the sweetheart of a guy, too, Pepitone. Yeah, he is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It's good we have long careers. I was thinking about the sports guys. You're a baseball player and that's your identity. And then you're 30 and you're like... It's over.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
If your identity is I'm a sports player, I'm like a sports player. That's how much I know. I just revealed how, what a good big sports guy I am. Sports player. You know, you're a sports player.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It's also just like, you think about your identity when you're a kid and you probably get all that, you know, identity as an athletic person. Then you become like a professional athlete. And it must be difficult to just, you have to really never hook into that. Like, that's my identity.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It's also, like, if you're a really hot woman, I think it's hard when, you know, you've got to, like, not have that be your identity.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Hey, Joe, can I have a cigar? I want to look manly. I need something to look manly. Let me get some freshies out of the humidor. You look very manly. I mean, I thank you, but sometimes I look in the mirror and I'm like, that guy looks old.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
After that, did they want you to do some something after?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Would you ever do a legit fight at some point? I'm old as fuck, dude. No, dude. You're a chicken. Spring chicken.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I've hit my head so many times in my life. I'm a little worried.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, I only got a corner. Have you had that guy on who's trying to live forever, the vampire?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I'm really fascinated with that guy. I like what he's doing. He's trying.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You're bringing it back to my Larraket story. Go to your Larraket story now. No, no, I want to hear this. I want to say it out loud because I set up a story and then I didn't finish it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Do you know who he is? Of course, Martin Bokole from the Cincinnati Red Dogs.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yes. Yes. And if you hear the whole song, it's a really good song.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I actually tried to not eat meat for a little while, a few years ago. You need like a nutritionist with you to really make sure you cover that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I just caught myself in the camera here. I look ridiculous smoking this cigar.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I love it. I love that. Oh. Joe just turned the camera off.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
By the way, you know these young kids? Let me go lecture.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Let's not rush that story. Let the podcast breathe for a second. So these young kids now, I noticed this, women will do this, they'll be like, people say I light up the room.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
People say I'm funny. But I've noticed that young people, they tell you compliments they got. And I'm like, why is this? Because for our area, you never say like, I'm great. People think I'm great. You never would say that. But now, this is my theory. I don't know if this is true. They've grown up on Facebook where people say, you look so pretty. And then everyone sees the compliment.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And now when they go out in the world and they get a compliment, then they're like, oh, I let people know my compliment. Everyone sees the compliments. That's probably exactly what it is.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I have no merch. Yeah, I'm going to definitely audio.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That looks ridiculous. I didn't mean to have the beard. Start from the beginning.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Listen, no one's buying my book. So, yeah, I thought I would read a lecture to wet your wessel. All right, we can turn this off. Turn it off. You tortured him.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Oh, it was awful, girls. For a minute there, I thought I was going to suffer the same fate as my nutsack. Oh, jeez. Yeah, baby. I want to apologize to the transmission. The first thing I did when I saw the flames was grab my Fendi clutch and... and my Alexander McQueen stiletto pumps. Yeah. And mine. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Then I ran back into the flames to get my Louis Vuitton alligator duffel, a bag so beautiful it demands attention. Yeah. My size 17 Jimmy Choo's and my dog Checkers. But there was only enough time to save two of those things, girls. Oh, no. The thick Sophie's choice. What's that? What did you choose?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That's what I'm doing with my time. That's an old one.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And it was kind of weird. It's creepy. It has that, what is that? Uncanny Valley. Uncanny Valley. Yeah, your brain needs to know it's a joke.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, it's completely ridiculous. I didn't mean to have a beard. That was just, I was being lazy. I wasn't, like, trying to make a joke. By the way, I did impressions when I was younger. When I was in middle school, I would do them. And then I never... I started doing... A manager was like, don't do impressions. And then that face app came along, and I looked nothing like Trump.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So bad. The intro of it or something. I remember Hardball.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Because I did Trump years ago. And I was like, oh, I can do Trump, because my face is the opposite of Trump. Stormy! Yeah. Stormy! Stormy! It's funny, I have the worst Trump. Like, I did Trump first, and it's the worst one. Now everyone does a better Trump.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, eventually there was a show, yeah, I was doing like full on, because that was like, I was just kind of doing little videos. And then it became like, I was crafting, you know, you were in one of them, Time Canceller. Like we had like crafted episodes.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You played Becky, the nurse. Yeah. Where's Time Canceler? Just to show Joe. I don't think you remember this. You probably don't remember, but Time Canceler was like a full episode where no one ever was like, hey, we can make this. And it wasn't dirty, and it got a lot of views. Hollywood never was. They were always like, no, thank you.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Nurse Becky. You are really good in that. Thank you. Do you come up to that on stage? To Nurse Becky? Joe Rogan from the time canceling? Well, a lot of people bring it up at the airport. Yeah. Comes up there a lot. Do you... Do you have any, like, I don't want to be seen? You just like people coming up to you. How do you feel about that? Most people are nice.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You know, because of you, a lot of dudes come to my show, which is great.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It was mostly nobody. It was mostly neither people were coming to my shows. But now, it's great. People are coming to my shows. But it is like a sea of dudes. I did a tour and I started to count, are any girls coming to my show? And the only ones would come would be like, my boyfriend likes you. It's just something like that. And yeah, I saw thousands of people I didn't see.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
There was never like three girls came to see me or something. It might be like one autistic girl.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I love, Tony's like, I like when comedians do well because it's so much pressure. Can you imagine the pressure of these comedians? Oh, God. It's like could change their, and there's nothing, you know, when you're young, you don't even know how to make it in show business. And there's just like one show that can, this was a direct link. But it also works.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I know. They have, like, the comedy baton right now. The funny thing is when someone doesn't do well and it's like dead silent, this makes me laugh, and Tony will go, holy shit. Tony's the worst. He's so mean. He's like, holy shit. He's so good at roasting. Oh, my God.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I know a comedian who still goes on stage with a mask and has it the whole time and comes in the whole time. I won't say. Puts it on when he's talking into the microphone. Comes in with it. Comes in. Maybe he takes it off. No. Yeah. I think he takes it off for the thing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You know what? Maybe he has like an immune disease. I don't know.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Don't you hate it when you're doing stand-up and you accidentally mouth it? There's been 15 comedians before you. And comedians are disgusting, let's be honest. We're all a disgusting group of people. And you're just like, okay, I've got to just wait for this disease.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I know a girl who brings her own microphone. Swear to God. The Stand. The Stand.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You ever see her movie that's weird because some of it's funny, then all of a sudden it's serious, and you're like, it goes back and forth from mixed genres, they call it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Righteous Gemstones? Righteous Gemstones? You know what else? Edie Patterson, I love her. I was in the Groundlings with her. We would do sketches. Edie is like the daughter or something, but she's so funny. She's just weird and funny. It's a weird show.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Maybe they didn't. There's too many shows. I have a thing where I'm like, can you just not tell me another good show? Too many shows. I'm not caught up. The Baldwins, you watching that? No. Was it a sitcom? It's a reality show about Alec Baldwin and his terrible wife.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
She's an awful, because I watch what women watch. That's what I enjoy. Does she fake the accent?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And he goes along with it. Do you have that, her shushing him at like a red carpet? I saw it. Isn't it just awful?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Alex Baldwin can get like a really sweet, beautiful woman. He's Alex Baldwin. What happened? He would yell, they would run away. He would yell? No. I mean, he would yell.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It does make you forget about when he killed that lady a little bit.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Oh, yeah. That's another good way. I mean, Bruce killed that lady with the car, baby. That was Bruce. Just Bruce. That was like right after that. Have you ever seen the footage of the car, the reenactment? Like she was putting on lipstick or something. She was very distracted. What did they say about Alec Baldwin? Hold on. No, he was.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
There's that nut shack. You can see the nut shack, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Did he have the... I think... I have no information, but I think so.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. No, I can do all the things. Whatever you say, I can do it. I'm good at it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
He was so funny on that. I actually didn't like that theme song.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And we will get to the John Larroquette story, just anybody listening.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
What about the back and the left? This is what I heard. I don't know any information. But in Oliver Stone, he was like, back and to the left. Back and... But someone was saying, no, your head would go... would do that because it, like... From the shot from the back, your head would recoil back. I don't know anything.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And people think they're smarter because their phone, they think that's them, too.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Ooh, I tried Grok, too, and it was really cool. I kind of felt like, I don't know, you could just see liking your AI friend. That's a problem with people.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Grok is saying some wild shit to folks. Oh, I know they have that different kind of stuff.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I love Ray. I bet you that part just was not good. It wasn't the actor's fault because you audition and then.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, not out in public. You can't fuck your car in public. You've seen that guy who fell in love with his car, that video. That's not real. No, no, no, no, no, no. It's the real thing. Are you sure?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Well, if he's as good an actor as Daniel Day-Lewis, maybe, but this was very believable. And he tells his dad, and it's... People fall in love with weird shit. It's just like a fetish thing. Bro, this is fake.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Figure it out. I didn't feel dumb, though. I wish I had that name, so I have a disease. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
If I grew up earlier, I would have been diagnosed on some kind of spectrum. I used to fly a kite until I peed my pants. That's a good move. Tongue out, like...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Oh, yeah. Pissing your pants in a fucking balsa wood structure flying in the air behind you. Yeah, I just loved it. That's a very Asperger-y, I think.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
We grew up, like, we're near the same age, I think. I think the worst food, like, when we were developing, the 70s food was just 80s. Just the biggest. I remember just having, like, that mac and cheese, mac and cheese. microwaved on this like plastic tray. Oh yeah. It's just all chemicals. Chemicals.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Peanut butter and fluff. You ever eat that? Oh. That was like lunch. Yeah. I'm going to have, I'm going to have a marshmallow for lunch.
The Joe Rogan Experience

And Wonder Bread, which is also. Sugar. We ate garbage. I used to go play golf obsessively for a while. I would walk 18 holes. I'd have a Snickers and a Sprite. I'd walk another 18 holes. I did this day after day. I was big into routine stuff. That was when I was growing. So I may have been taller. Had a carrot.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
By the way, this was like a country club. We didn't grow up rich, but my dad, for like three years, had this country club. And the food was free. You had to spend like $1,000 a month or whatever on food. And no one else was going. My dad worked really hard. And I was the only one going. And instead of getting a lobster every day, we had Snickers. It was like 13-year-old Kyle. Damn. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I want to promote my crypto coin real quick. That's my merch.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That one was like way, I felt like way better. Like Three's Company sucks if you watch that now. That was like the number one sitcom. Snappers are still good. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It is a little bit of like, if you fall for this, well, you shouldn't have money kind of thing, too. Like, all right, did you really?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
No, no, I am. I actually am very interested in finance. No, I watch videos of finance. I watch finance videos like every night. I'm very into it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Really? I've actually learned so much because of YouTube because I can watch the things. And I realize I'm actually interested in a lot of things. Yes, I know something about this tariff.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
But I bet those first 12 hours, most people couldn't trade it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I used to play poker all the time. I went through a phase. I actually won the Borgata tournament. I won a tournament there. I had $6,000 in my... I had lost my luggage on a flight weeks before. I'm like, I'm not going to lose this cash because I didn't have too much money. So I put like $3,000 or something in my suitcase.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I'm like, I'm going to put like $3,000 in my pants because I'm not going to lose this money. And then I missed my flight. So now I slept over at the airport with giant wads.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I actually really studied and I was winning. I didn't make a ton of money, but I didn't lose a big amount of money. I think I'm like probably after playing 1 million hours, I'm up like $4. You know what I mean? It's like a total waste of my life.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, you can, especially in like Vegas, like with people come into, you know, there's having fun. You can just be very disciplined.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I know you're talking about bicycle casino commerce. Yeah. They're like, hey, Kyle. Kyle's back. Oh, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Texas, all of them is all like, just gotta fold, fold, fold, fold, you know, and just, you know, really be really disciplined. People just start fucking around and get drunk and you're just.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
There's the math of it. And just once you know that, it's like, and then it becomes second nature. You'd know kind of right away. And then there's ESP. There's, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I went up to Vegas once, and I was depressed. I never get depressed. But situationally, I was like, I'm going to go just take five grand. I just drove to Vegas like a lunatic by myself. By yourself? Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Oh, it was like... 5 p.m. ish it was like later I was actually about to do a show a live show on my YouTube channel and I was under so much stress it was like editing and writing and then it's just like all me and I just was like gonna you know all these characters I just was like really stressed out And I didn't think the show was good. And I'm like, just didn't do it.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And I just went, this is on top of, I was, the pandemic, I was so isolated. And then it was too much alone, you know, kind of thing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, I think that kind of fucked me up a little bit.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I haven't had a steady girlfriend since. I think maybe I got weird or something. Did you? Do you feel like? I think I'm very normal, but I must be probably weird.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I don't want to say what you did. I don't think I- That was, by the way, what I had was ridiculous. Yes. And it was like, I wanted to take it off.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Ooh, this is good, actually. People are going to be like, oh, I got to see that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. That really is going to be like nothing else on that channel. Game changer.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It's also such a high wire act. Because in doing a character, if you do SNL, it's, like, I'm sure very nerve-wracking. But this is, like, SNL, but you have no script. You've got to go, like, I've got to try to make things funny. And when you're dressed up like a thing. Shh, shh, shh. I won't say, I won't say. Yeah. But you're like, everything you say they think is going to be... Right.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It's got to be a joke. But it was really cool because right before we went on... I'm trying to say... I think I can say this.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
No, no, no, but like... Tony will get mad. But I think this... The crowd didn't know.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I remember when you were going to go to Austin, and I'm like, this Joe guy doesn't know what he's doing. I was telling people that. This Joe guy doesn't know what the hell he's doing.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
bizarre hallucination you're having it's like a leap it's like a field of dreams yeah you built it and then they came yeah so we're trying austin is now like a comedy town it's a huge one of the it's a huge live performance town already right because there's so much great music here there's a lot of vomit too a lot of puke a lot of homeless people a lot of great drugs that's what i hear
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I do. This is a more inviting environment for a GalaQ anyway. I know. I have family back east, but I don't. They can move. I don't think they love me. I'm finding out I don't think they love me anyway. What happened? They just told me they didn't love me anymore.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. Wow. Which I respect. What did you say first? Huh? Did you say I don't love you first? No, no. I was like, I love you guys. And then they just kind of shook their heads. So no one visits me. Take a hint. Huh? Take a hint. Time to move. I know. I think it would... My career would be better out here, for sure.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, your club, though... is better than, and I'm not just saying that because I'm here, Joe. I'm not lying to you. But it's better than the Vulcan. I don't know if you've been to the Vulcan. It's a great club. Thank you. Tough call. Tough call. They probably get run off from people who can't get into your club. Yeah, they have a lot of great shows there.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
It's like you or anybody who does things. He's been doing it for years.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Imagine how people come up with the concept of a show. And you would never come up with this, you would never go, this is gonna work right away, this Kill Tony format.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And the guy, I was so out of my mind nervous, and I could hear in the door this guy not doing good, panicking, and I just got calm, and I was like, I got this. Isn't that nice? Yeah, yeah. Oh, it's so good. And the show got canceled.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Well, there's probably also clips. If you put it together, it's... Maybe that's what it is. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
People just know that it's a highlight. Maybe it's all of them.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
There's some value in having a live show now, which pops more than other. Because you can tell that show is improvised.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
There's so many moments that are awkward and don't work. It makes it even more interesting to watch. It's dangerous. Yeah, it's also super stressful, but...
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Now's the time. Now's the time. All right. Boy, this better be a good story. It doesn't have to be. It'd be funny if it's not. I think you're gonna get your wish. On this, only thing I've ever booked where I, a sitcom I ever booked, where I was like, I read, I did... I think it was like four callbacks. Finally, I got a sitcom. And it was like a reoccurring role.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And I played this girl's boyfriend. And she did not find me. I could tell she was like, ugh. Because we'd have a makeout scene. So we go to the table read. You know, the table read was like where the network come, and you all sit around, and they just laugh, and everyone's having a great time. So right before our table read, They go, Kyle, we got some new lines for you. Got like eight new lines.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
They were like all new lines. And I knew how my reading was. We've talked about that. And so I'm panicking a little bit, like, okay, Kyle, you can do this, just read good, Kyle, I'm thinking in my head.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, like 90% of them don't, maybe even more, right?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So it's going around the table, it's like, ha, ha, ha, it's killing, gets to me, my line, I'm like, if I go to the store, then we can get it, and then death, then it goes around the table, ha, ha, ha, me, I found, and then afterwards, I'm like, oh, I think I'm fired. And it was so much like climbing a mountain to get this job. And then the next day, I didn't get a call. No one said you're fired.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So I come in the next day and I'm about to get to the door and the cast director's like, whoop. And she goes, you can go home. They're going to go a different direction. I said that. You can go home? You can go home. I got there. And she goes, but you're going to Iraq. That'll be cool. She was trying to make a small talk because I was going to Iraq like the next week. Did you stand up?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, USO tour. Kind of a hero, I guess. No one wanted us to see it. It was, yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
You can go home. Yeah. They're going to go a different way.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And then I get to go to Iraq, so that was my prize. You should have told them you can't read. I should have said... I'm dyslexic. You know you're so nervous and you want to be like, I'm not a problem and I can do it. Yeah. But anyway, show sucked. Damn, dude. Show sucked. Did it? Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I stole a pack. Someone got me a pack of NeuroGum. You like that stuff, huh? Well, I wanted a little pick-me-up. Want some coffee? I went online. No, I'm good now, but I was online, and I wanted to buy this stuff and try it, and I got scammed. It was like NeutraGum, the same packaging as NeuroGum.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Neutropics. Yeah, that's what Neuromint is. I know what that word means, but why don't you tell the audience?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I was in a situation. It was Set With The Entertainer Presents. It was a sketch show. And it was like, I was so excited. I remember that. Yeah, I joined mid-season.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah, I could use a little memory booster. I don't sleep well enough. I'm really gonna try to fix that. What are you gonna do to fix it? You're gonna be really proud of me. You ready to be prepared? I'm ready. I have a jujitsu class on Monday, my first one. Really? That'll help you sleep. I think so.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. I actually do not have a neck for a choke hold kind of sport. I'm 30% neck.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Wow. So I... I get there mid-season, they're like, we need a white guy to pick on. I was a token white guy. And Louis C.K. was a writer, it was a great frickin' show. And he got into a fight with the Fox. Here's where I knew things were downhill. Now, I didn't sell my car. I had a really, and I'd pull up to the good spots, and it was like Lamborghini, you know, roll down.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I told them, give me the most beginner thing possible. Oh, they have to do it that way.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I would not want that. I don't want to get boners when I'm like, I would not want that.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
He's like, every day. I love it. I want that kind of money where I can just pay out and come over and play pickleball. Yeah, it was a trainer.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I'll destroy Kid Rock at pickleball. You think so? I'll destroy that guy. He's a clown. Whoa. Kid Rock is a clown.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Well, let me tell you what I think and I don't know anything. Good. Both of us don't know. This is a perfect time to speculate about the economy. This is all his negotiating. It's going to come down. It's not going to stay like this. The bad thing will be is if all the other countries go, fuck you, America, we're not going to negotiate. It's always a possibility. Then that's a problem, I think.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
We are playing all together globally. He... It's like a woman from Poland. She's like, oh, you're a comedian? Tell a joke. And you're like, no, you're not going to find this funny. I can't tell you a joke. Tell a joke.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And then you tell me your cute little fucking joke. In my village... Yeah, that happened to me recently. I was like, I'm not telling you. It's not going to go well.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
That's, that's still though, could be a conversation. Here's what I do on like a plane. I go, I work with computers and they're like, Oh, that's always shuts it down. Finances too. Yeah.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And it wasn't just a shitty car from like, the early 80s it was like I had another four accidents it was just a chunk and I just was like and so broke in a tiny apartment like let me just see if I can but it seemed like this is a hit show it was doing well okay and it's like first thing first sign it was like hey there's a Fox party tomorrow and I was like oh cool I made it in Hollywood
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I forget you do UFC commentary. That's another great job.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Is there something you want to do that you haven't done? No. Are you looking? No.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Do you have a goal? No. Zero goals. Zero goals. What about retiring and traveling the world? I don't have any retirement ideas. No. No. Pyramids? You ever see those? I want to see the pyramids. I do too, but I think what's going to happen is you go, oh, there they are. And now you're like- I don't think so.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Can you go in them now at all? Yes, you can go in them. You can? Yeah, you can go in them. Okay.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I really want to know how they built those. I really, I think that's a, those, you see some of those stones are so... I don't believe aliens or I don't believe that happened. I think people built that. But how did they get some of those stones up there?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So I go to this thing, and I'm like, where's Cedric? And they're like, oh, he got into a big fight with the Pettifox. He told me he was a douchebag. So I'm fighting him, like, that doesn't sound like a good idea. Oh, fuck. To get, so I'm like, it'll be fine. So then this is, we were about to go on right after American Idol, which was like the biggest show in the world.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Okay, I'm gonna push back on that. Please do. Wouldn't they have some metal?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
I know you talk about we're this much smarter than a monkey.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
So we're like, get ready for the rocket ship. And then this guy put Wanda's psych show, took Cedric off the air for like six weeks to put Wanda's psych, not off the air, but like, yeah, took, moved the spot. So Wanda's show was after, and then Wanda's got amazing,
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
um you know views so it gave them excuse to cancel cedric even though cedric was a hit it was like a fu cedric seems like a nice guy yeah he was very cool nice to me how what happened he did get on the phone during my audition though at one point i was in the middle of auditioning he was like Yeah, and it was kind of a casual call. It was clearly not an emergency. But I just powered through.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Thank you. Thank you for watching. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for watching.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do-do. You know who wrote that?
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Such a nice guy. I had... That Cedric show was also... I had an episode where it was like my episode, where it was like I had three sketches I wrote that was going to be... It was my big coming out. And I literally came out, right? And I was like, what's going on, you guys? And shock and awe started. Remember the Iraq war? And it just was gone. And I told everybody, like, that's my big show.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And it just... That happened, and then it just was over. And I never sold my car. I was back to my studio apartment.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
And it's so hard to make a funny sketch show. They try to plop people together. You need... You know, real synergy with the cast and the writers have to figure out how people are funny. It takes a while. The first set of SNL cast, they already worked together. And that's why they were like gelled right away. I mean, one of the reasons.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
But all these sketch shows they put together and they'll say, don't pitch a sketch show. They never work. It's because they like pluck people who don't even do sketch.
The Joe Rogan Experience
#2300 - Kyle Dunnigan
Yeah. By the way, Milli Vanilli. They got a bad deal. Not to change topics, but.
We Might Be Drunk
Ep 202: Kyle Dunnigan & Blair Socci
Tell me why. Damn Triple H. Damn his soul. You son of a bitch.
