I don't really know how to start shows.

Come on now, don't start liking me now.

So yeah, I'm funny compared to, you know, well you'll see later.

I favor mehap!

I know a lot of fucking idiots.

I think a lot of shit is mean-spirited, just because it goes against what they believe.

But the relief of comedy is it take things that aren't funny and it allows us to laugh about them for an hour

We got a purple suit to buy in a gigantic coffin.

Why are you laughing?

Evening everybody.

Welcome to another episode of Why You Laughing, a history of comedy podcast.

And today I am pleased to introduce to you Daniel Tosh, people pleaser, and my guest who requested this episode,

the great Austin Inkels. What's up, Austin?

Thank you for having me. How are we doing today?

Glad to have you. We had on the Blind Mic Project a few weeks ago,

but this is a more formal introdial. It's not the chaos of the Blind Mike project.

We're taking things seriously here. So I hope you're right.

I appreciate you having me again.

I had a lot of fun.

So if we have a guest, I usually say to them ideally, we would talk about someone or something that, like, influenced you or had an impact on you.

And Austin Engels throughout a couple names, Daniel Tosh and Anthony Jezzelnick, who I assume you're a fan of both.

Yeah, both of those guys are, I would say, my comedy
