Joe Rogan - Larry David's a Genius

the more the warmer and the more interesting the person is the more I give them of myself how does Larry David handle it he's not bad yeah yeah I'm a big thank you you know I've seen him go through because it was it I saw him become famous you know he was Friday he created Seinfeld but that still wasn't the fame that he has now so I saw him through Curb Your Enthusiasm yeah become truly iconic so he's had trouble figuring out how to people want to take a picture of people you know yeah how do I do it and it's always changing he's never an [ __ ] it's truly one of the greatest comedy shows of all time well thank you I never say and I have to say the new season we're about to film in October the storyline may be my favorite and it's really subtle and fun it's like one of those things like oh I it's like I think people watching it will feel that they're living a fantasy and after the first one airs I'm happy to come back and talk about it you know I mean because that premise of where we're going is delightful I love how HBO gives him sort of carte blanche they're like you know take a couple years off do whatever the [ __ ] you want like yeah takes him pretty great yeah well for Larry it's not about the money well of course it's about can I do another good show that makes us different than most shows in history yeah and he he only wants to do good work and enjoy himself otherwise there's no reason yeah and HBO is smart that way they're genius there I mean look if you think about the show Sopranos [ __ ] Game of Thrones you know they know or how to let a show you show they from what I understand they give a lot of notes on their pilots but once you become a series they kind of leave you alone that's amazing you know whereas when you're doing a network show or from other paid sources I've heard that the notes never stop well when I was on the radio is the easiest thing to ruin with notes drama can survive notes comedy cannot because it's like the you know doing comedies like you know the the Domino's and if you take one of those and just move it a little to the left to the right you're screwing up the whole thing that's a very good point yeah when I was on Newsradio we weren't successful and that is when you get the notes we were my friend Lou Morton who was one of the writers he would wear a shirt every Monday after the ratings would come in with a number on it it would take a white t-shirt and write it and one day came in the number said 88 I go [ __ ] dude really he goes yeah we're 88th I'm like [ __ ] I was like goddamn that was say four years right five five years so the point being is that was an immensely successful show barely that's pretty great no no no for sure it's definitely better than being canceled but the point being is that we were never a hit so we always got notes we're constantly getting notes like we need a gay neighbor we need a black guy we need a we need of this we need to that we need a love interest we need to find watch that show by the way the gay neighbor and the black guy if that was the name of the show I'd be in that's a probably good name of a sitcom Dini black guy lives next to a gay neighbor and it's the problem there's a lot of sitcoms and I don't want to name names but I watch them and I know they're very very very successful and I watch them and I'm stunned I don't understand it it's like they're speaking a different language I don't get it either I don't I don't but I don't watch comedy man I think it's mirror America I think there's there's something going on with tired people no you don't know there's something that I noticed this is something that's recent too that audiences now respond to what they think is supposed to be funny like real comedy fans Doug Newsradio like people who Doug comedy I think Doug Newsradio people who did comedy did curb do we have other kind of fans too yes but I find that comedy fans really do get comedy right but everybody likes to say they like comedy or they watch comedy and they meant out of any sense of humor right so I find there was a show I'll give you an example and this one was like this specific and I don't care if I'm slamming it was the something in the girl and the apartment B or the [ __ ] in something B it was um lead actors very talented but I watched the show and the rhythms were this is what comedy is it wasn't funny it didn't have a natural vibe to it it had no reason for me to keep watching it but it was done in a style that other shows have done since where this is how comedies done this is the way we spin a line or do a situation and I don't know why but it always involves a lot of that that putting the the the spin on the ball or what is it dancing in English it has a lot to do with that because even if you watch a lot of Nickelodeon shows or Disney shows they tend to do that they put the spin on it it's never funny enough just to have here's the thing about comedy TV comedy I think for the most part you're supposed to be enthralled with the situation right situation so the situation Lucy got into a situation yes and you laughed at Lucy dealing with the situation I really I bet in the entire time Lucy ran on the rent on the air that there might have been 12 great jokes that she said in the situation you're laughing on how she deals with the situation's very good and you look at any great comedy and that's where this it's Larry David dealing with a situation yes it's it's so and by the way one thing Larry and I were very proud about with Curb Your Enthusiasm if one of us says something funny to the other one because we improvise we laugh so these shows you see right people say these lines written by writers and then the audience laughs if it's on stage but yet the actors don't laugh at one another right right so on a lot of levels it's just not right and then there are shows now that I've watched for maybe five minutes where my I cannot believe how they're how terrible they are and yet they're successful hugely successful early successful don't get it yeah when you guys do a show you don't really have like a full script in terms of no it's very tight outline we have seven pages right line Larry has written this story right and in that story maybe a half-dozen things are like he says this or she says you have to move the story yes for story purposes not because it's a great job right and then I play it every time differently unless I'm told by the director or I'm one of the producers we have a meaning of like we need to get this across this is not coming across and I'll make an adjustment right but in general I try and do it different every single test that is so crazy and how many takes we do well if it's Larry and I just us he and I alone the scene it we can we can have a scene done in less than an hour but if there's a bunch of other people could be three hours Wow and the idea is just like this is what needs to take place we have to figure out how to write get it across the fact that the refrigerators broke in and we're gonna have to go buy ice and who's gonna buy the ice I don't want to drive to buy the ice right then you're all just talking it's more in-depth than that the story is really there but yes how we approach it and sometimes that can change that's one of the reasons why the show is so good because it seems so organic when you guys are talking it is well that's what would I get out of it we don't rehearse that's amazing or so the Gulpers we don't even do a lot of rehearsing but I have to stick to the script if I want to improvise on the Goldbergs I have to let the producers know not to get permission to let them know this take I'm gonna do something different and I have to let my fellow actors know that's just to go from two different styles I don't know that it's difficult but I find the Curb Your Enthusiasm way way more enjoyable I'm sure but I'm really proud the Goldbergs is the number one show on TV that families watch together so I'm very proud of it and I get why people dig it it's not my style but when I watch it occasionally I don't watch it very often I get why people dig it I'm not confused by the show right right you know what I mean like these other shows we're talking about I'll be fused as to why they're successful why they're on the air but other ones I watch like I watched Modern Family I get why people dig it right it makes total sense yeah yeah you know so it's it's much more enjoyable during the Kirk thing it's edgy ER and all that but I still dig the Goldbergs and I also dig the crew and I dig the people I work with and I dig the writers so it's a very positive wonderful experience I'm lucky I'm on one of the most popular Network comedies and I'm on the most popular alternative comedy house you be so lucky but by the way I'm grateful I keep on getting told in therapy don't say lucky so much why's he tell you that because grateful because I do have something to do with it but not from an ego standpoint like I've worked hard I've done this I've done that so I'm just incredibly grateful you're lucky to I told you I'm not kidding that dude has taught me so much that might be the only thing I disagree with him on yeah he doesn't know [ __ ] no lucky is good no Roger dog ha ha ha

I sensed that Garlin started off cranky but ended up in harmony with Rogan. I wonder what is going on with his wife. I also wonder why there is such a discrepancy between Garlin and Rogan's assessment of the Comedy Store's community. Cynical me thinks Garlin pulls rank there and is shunned for it.

I imagine that successful people forget they are successful and keep clawing for the next ring.

I enjoyed what he had to say, and there were some flashes of brilliance, but his voice, once you notice and payed attention to it, became annoying. Or made me want to clear his voice.
