Because i dont i think my whole act, and ive been doing it a long time, is probably about ten solid minutes. Is it . Jimmy i mean i havent written i cant do it. How do you do that all . You could off the top of your head, you could do eight hours. Jimmy never, never, i dont know how you do it but, you do it well. I mean could talk for eight hours, but not do it [ light laughter ] you you are funny. I guess youre right. [ laughter ] jimmy yeah. But do you work out of clubs . Or do you i mean, how does it yeah. Jimmy do you remember like your first joke that you ever wrote . Im trying to oh, okay. I always keep my i dont keep much. Im not sentimental, but i keep all my notebooks. Do you keep all your notebooks . Jimmy i have yeah, i have one notebook. [ laughter ] thats sad. Almost full. Jimmy thats really sad, i know. Its almost full, every other page, yeah. Of jokes . So i found, like, a really old one. You know cause sometimes you want to look through, and go, like, i never figured this out, but now with have fresh eyes, i have an angle on this. Jimmy totally, i got this germofabit, yeah. Right, so i i found, like, my notebook from when i was, like, 19. And it has the worst jokes in it, plus like diary entries, which are embarrassing. Jimmy youre making me sweat as like just thinking about it. Dont die, because this will be found but, this is a joke. Jimmy good advice. Seeing it written out is extra terrible and cheesy. cause it was like i dont know why my fish. This is not good. [ light laughter ] jimmy no but i already love the delivery. I dont know why my fish died, i put it in a tank, dot dot dot, top . [ laughter and applause ] get it . Jimmy see, now youre Sarah Silverman and you can get a laugh from that. I put in a tank top, i put it in a tank, dot, dot, dot, top. cause i just thought it like, i dont know. [ laughter ] jimmy oh my god. A lot of my material is about that. I dont know, cause i dont know, because i dont know. [ light laughter ] jimmy but you know how to deliver stuff. See . Youre a professional now. But i mean, i i feel like if i dont go to clubs or Something Like that or if i dont do rehearsal here, i dont know how to work on a a joke. I cant tweet out a joke. cause if its not funny, people are like, what are you talking about, thats not funny, like. [ light laughter ] i couldnt millions of people. But youre not someone who like, crafts words. Youre someone who like, i mean, takes a troll doll out and then does an hour of genius on that. Look at that. Jimmy yeah, thats like my act outside. Oh, my god, i met him, he had a bowl haircut, and it literally looked like a bowl, on top of his head. Jimmy yeah, it was bad. He was so wideeyed. I mean, he is youre still the same person, but you were just like, oh, gee whiz, hi. Jimmy yeah, yeah. [ light laughter ] and im like, who the hell is this guy . Jimmy yeah, i was pretty yeah, when i would leak i would take a peek at him in the room. And hes like murdering, and id go, who the hell is this guy . Jimmy no, you were always, always, always super nice to me. So im psyched. I remember those days. Yeah, the bowl cut. Yeah, that was two weeks, three weeks ago. [ light laughter ] but i know that you you first started on twitter, you tweeted out a joke, but on a a schedule, which is a very interesting way to do it. It wasnt even a joke. Its just like, i would think of tweets, and i for whatever i used a different app than twitter for my twitter. And you could like, schedule tweets. Jimmy yeah. Sometimes i would think about i come up with like two or three tweets, jimmy. I dont want to spoil you all at once. So, you know i want to pace it out. Jimmy okay. Like schedule this for 8 00 p. M. Okay, so one day i scheduled a a tweet, and i scheduled it for 8 05. Jimmy okay. I remember this specifically, because at 8 00, we killed osama bin laden. [ light laughter ] [ audience ohs ] the twitterverse was aflame. [ laughter ] jimmy yeah. I didnt even remember. Then at 8 05, i tweeted, why do my dogs doodies come out cold . [ laughter ] i just want to remind you, i scheduled that. Jimmy oh, no. [ laughter ] i thought that was worth scheduling. Jimmy oh, no. How do people react . I mean, i think people give me the benefit of the doubt more than i earn. I mean, its almost i feel very much like Peter Sellers in being there sometimes. Because people read, and i feel like people were like, yeah, it is cold, but it is our duty. [ light laughter ] jimmy they made it work somehow . Yeah, to make it smart. Jimmy i want to talk about i want to talk about your show. First of all, youre in battle of the sexes. Oh, yeah. Jimmy check out that movie, youll see youll see sarah on the big screen, but then if you want to see her on the small screen get hulu, which i have, for handmaids tale. Oh, my god handmaids tale. Jimmy yeah, i know, i cant be sorry about that. [ cheers and applause ] we cant even talk about it, theres no sense in talking about it. Theres no time. Jimmy but then if you already have if you have hulu out there its an app like netflix and everything else. Jimmy yeah, exactly. So you go in there and you type you type in Sarah Silverman, you type in, i love you, america. And youll get to see the new show. Explain what the show is, its very different. And its like a talk show, but its its i dont know how to explain it, but its a half hour, its everything i dreamed it to be. Its like i guess you could say its kind of social politics, but anything heady or even trying to be intellectual is sandwiched in a very, very, very, very bready sandwich of aggressively stupid. [ light laughter ] jimmy oh, yeah, we love that. Its so dumb, and i love it so much. Thats my favorite kind of comedy. Jimmy i love it, too. It is my absolute favorite. But you do a bit with involving your real dad. So, we shot my dad, we put him in a pool because jimmy whats his nickname again, sarah . Shleppy. Jimmy okay, good. [ light laughter ] i dont know why i said that like, how could you not know . [ laughter ] jimmy yeah, i know. He got it at camp. Jimmy i know, shleppy, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, literally, his best friends are all from camp still, and they all call him shleppy. Jimmy schleppy is great. Yeah, so we put him in pool, where hes always in a pool anyway. He loves swimming, and ask him random questions for two hours. And it is all gold. And here are a couple clips. Jimmy i want to show you some clips of schleppy, from the new hulu series i love you, america, take a a look. What would you warn someone about whos about to have their first child .
