LeMent Tonight 0910126 — Кассета

This Week On this episode of LeMent Tonight, host Bob LeMent welcomes Las Vegas comedian, bartender, and street musician Steve K. for a candid, wide-ranging conversation on navigating the comedy world. Steve opens with a self-deprecating monologue touching on getting older, the indignities of open mics, and feeling like an outsider in entertainment. The discussion quickly pivots into an honest dive into Steve’s 20-year obsession with stand-up, where Bob challenges Steve’s tendency to get trapped in his own head and hyper-focus on local scene politics. Offering tough-love mentorship, Bob encourages him to stop obsessing over peer validation, lean into his unique raw perspective much like Rodney Dangerfield did, and measure success by the creative act rather than the pursuit of fame. @tomedy601 https://youtube.com/live/0EaFjA6ayF4 Bad AI Transcript Hey, everybody, it's Lament Tonight. I've got my special guest tonight, Steve K. Steve comes from Las Vegas, Nevada. he's an eligible bachelor there in las Vegas. he uh part-time uh drag queen, full-time bartender, I think, right? So, let me read you a quick bio that he has here. He's a comedian who just does not feel like he fits into the comedy scene. Isn't that all comedian Steve? But I cannot stop thinking about doing comedy. So, here i am. Maybe I can feel part of a community here. That's his plausible bio. Steve K. from Vegas. How's it going, Steve? Um, well, thank you, Bob. Thank you for having me and hello to all your listeners out there. Well, I was gonna you can do a little monologue here if you'd like. I'll just kick it over to you. Oh, I feel like we're on the Jimmy Fallon show or Jimmy Killen. I get to go out on the stage. Yeah. Where's the band?Well, here, hold on a second. Let's see. Gary, are you there? And that's what she said. Oh, yeah, that's true. Bob, you are a great asshole. Thank you, Gary. All right. Go ahead, Steve. Okay, I'm just going to read some crap to you guys. I'm reading right off a piece of paper. I can afford to do that here because you can't see me and my glasses. I just want you to know that I am competing very hard for my next gig. as a shopping cart attendant. I believe I got what it takes. I won't let anything or anyone stand in my way. Not even my comedy career. I really feel I got this. And between the busting music on the street and DoorDash, I won't need to work anywhere else and I can focus moreon my open mic career. There we go. Hey, thank you. Give me the light. In comedy, we have the light, Bob. So give me the light when my time's up, all right? Oh, I'll just, I'll give you the hook, but go right ahead. Yeah, give me the hook. You know, they used to say when we were young, don't trust anyone over 30. Now it's the opposite. We're being erased. Okay, look at a magazine, 40 successful people under 40. Every time there's an acting gig, they don't want us. The jobs I work, young people ride around in golf carts, three, four of them, or they're hiding and they come around to make sure that I'm not leaning up against the wall. In speed dating, all the groups of 25 to 35, 35 to 42, you don't have anything really above 42. Maybe incorporate a 55 plus islandbut we will be the final generation. I know, don't laugh at your own words. Thank you. Some foods know not to enter my mouth because my body is like the Hotel California. You can check in anytime you want, but it can never leave. It takes me two days to shit out a slice of pizza. Passing gas is your body's way of saying, hey, I got food trapped inside of me. Sometimes I feel like a rocket ship that keeps trying to take off, but it can't, so it keeps shooting out flames. Never ask a woman... Thank you, Bob. Thank you for the mercy laugh, the mercy symbols. Two more jokes and you'll be out of your misery, everybody. Never ask a woman her age. We should all know that by now. It's written somewhere.in the Ten Commandments, but it's a double standard. Just like it's okay for a woman to clean a men's
