Leah & Andrew Rudick

Can you imagine embarking on a 14-hour drive to Florida, stuck in a car with no AC or radio and three squabbling kids in the backseat? We've lived it, and survived to laugh about it! This episode is a hilarious trip down memory lane as we reminisce about our insane childhood vacation. We also offer a window into the entertaining aspects of being an uncle.

Ever struggled with writer’s block or been paralyzed by the fear of starting from scratch? You're not alone.  We share our own trials and triumphs in navigating the writing process, from the struggles of getting started and the pitfalls of thinking too big picture, to the thrill and terror of taking risks. We delve into the peculiar conundrum when a joke works but just doesn't feel right, and the daunting fear of blank pages.

Finally, we bare our souls (and our skin), discussing our own experiences with tattoos and our mom's comical horror at them. We also open up about crowd work and how that affects the dynamic of the show!

Speaker 2:

No, i don't think they care. They don't seem to mind, do you butterscotch?

Speaker 1:

If I ever have a kid, I'm going to change its name every day.

Speaker 2:

I don't You know what I? see mom, the way that she delights in her children, in her grandchildren, and I've just never, i don't ever Like, i've never felt that way. It's just not for me.

Speaker 1:

You don't have the. You don't have the.

Speaker 2:

I went to Coney Island with our niece and mom yesterday.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, did you pee pee in the pool?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, i did not, but I got in this like mini water game with our niece and this pool was disgusting. It was like one of those inflatable ones you would have had. It would have been your nightmare.

Speaker 1:

At Coney Island. It was spider central.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was like a little inflatable one off to the side.

Speaker 1:

Why didn't you go in the big, in the huge pool? We did, oh, okay, we did Okay.

Speaker 2:

Mom brought dad's SPF 150. So we all looked like ghosts.

Speaker 1:

We looked like ghouls Good In the pool, that's fun Yeah. Yeah, great.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so here's what I wanted to talk about.

Speaker 1:

Let's get right into it.

Speaker 2:

Like. so you made a video recently It was a meditation detailing our childhood vacation that we took to Florida.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it was fictional, it was not fictional. It's so funny, it was not fictional, it was purely based on our upbringing.

Speaker 2:

Like to the T and the detail of it is.

Speaker 1:

It was really brilliant because the way that you were able to Oh thank you.

Speaker 2:

Go on The way you tied memory with, creatively tying all that together in a way. That's like I wonder if people who watch that understand how specifically real that was and the way that you were able to say so much about our personalities by saying so little. You know, It's just so funny, like the detail of like the Capri Sun and how mom, our mom, would use Capri Suns to like you know, calm these storms, but you were the least. What's the word I'm looking for? like reactive or yeah.

Speaker 1:

She knew you were the easiest to do with. Well, yeah, in in certain situations because I was the middle child and I was the, the peacemaker, mm-hmm Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but that video it made me laugh so hard because All of our relatives my mom, our mom's talking about like, did you like that video? I watched and I was like, oh, this is very funny. But I just thought it was funny, like all your other videos are funny. And then I watched it again because mom kept talking about it. She was like that 84 beige Dotson. She was like she's right, it had no AC.

Speaker 2:

Yeah no radio and Leah used to always cry Why am I the only one in the neighborhood with no AC and no radio? And she's doing an impression of you that she thought was hilarious, yeah, and And. But I watched it again today and, like all of those men, i didn't remember all of those things because I was too young, like the detail of it. But then it all came like flash.

Speaker 1:

I actually started remembering, like they came, they came flash back.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, you know, like yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, i think that it was like the idea, for it was like this when you're a kid, like Vacation is something that we would look forward to all year, right and like now looking back at it as an adult, it's just like God that that was Sounds like it was just terrible, like driving from.

Speaker 1:

Ohio to Florida, like taking a a 15-hour drive with three kids Screaming like fighting, who all like hated each other in like a car that was like didn't have. This was before screens, this was before like with just like radio and like no radio.

Speaker 2:

What an the thing didn't have that thing didn't even have a radio. that was real, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah and like What a night, what a night, what a nightmare for mom and dad To have to do that but they loved it, they relished in it.

Speaker 2:

That's the thing that I'm saying. Like I don't have that, like that would have been my absolute nightmare. Yeah it's yeah, but they insisted because our aunt, who, who was lovely, who everybody loved and are so, so kind and nice, she, she conveyed to our mom that everyone takes a vacation every year. It's important. No matter what no matter your like financial situation you find, by that we went yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so we grew up every year go. We would go to Florida and it was the best like looking back. Those are some of those are like my best memories of, of childhood and but God, what like There were some explosions in those cars. You know like, yeah, I.

Speaker 2:

Don't remember a lot of that. I feel like I was young and I blocked out. The other thing I was so funny is when you say in the video, the younger brother, you're my younger brother loses his mind because our dad says he's gonna turn the car around and he's Too young to understand that you're not bluffing. Yeah. I was like oh yeah, that's me first. Yeah, Yeah, he's having a meltdown, just having a meltdown, just having a total free.

Speaker 2:

Just like were you there the time that I? We're gonna have a rage build up? Yeah, yeah, that's what I was thinking.

Speaker 1:

I was like, it was like it was like it was like a super Intense car ride where it was just like building, the tension was building and you were just like silent and then it calmed down, like, and Then it was like an hour later that you just like Exploded and we had a box of pizza and you just like threw an entire pizza onto Mike.

Speaker 2:

Honestly, one of the proudest moments of my life. Like if I could go back and relive any, it would be that yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, good, good, well, that's good that that's your proudest moment.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Also I know that in the.

Speaker 1:

In the video I do the the moment where I talk about, where I call everyone a bunch of dildos, which is like a true story. This was. It was actually like around the kitchen table and I didn't know what the word meant, but I had heard it on.

Speaker 2:

I had heard it on breakfast because we watch breakfast over and over all the time and in like it was just like I was like y'all are a bunch of.

Speaker 1:

And I thought I was, because in the movie They say he says you're all acting like a bunch of fucking dildos And I was like. I was like I'm gonna say this but I'm gonna leave out the f word, because I know that's a bad word, and I was like you're all acting like a bunch of dildos and the table just like went silent and Like mom and dad got so angry and I like had no idea what I had done.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, I can imagine you captured mom exactly.

Speaker 1:

What did you say?

Speaker 2:

You're like, i don't know what I said. I'm 11 right now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Oh yeah, it just had a nice ring to it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, so that I Wanted to talk about like writing. We we touched on writing process a little bit last episode, but we didn't actually get into the The grimy, the nitty gritty the nitty gritty, what. Why don't you? well, let me say that I feel like my writing process and Everyone's. Over the years it changes, like as a young comic. You're always like what is the trick, what is the key? You don't really know. There's no formula, so you just try different things and then you change that process over the years. That's been my experience.

Speaker 2:

Yeah what is a day like for you? walk me through your process and in a day.

Speaker 1:

I love this question I wake up, i.

Speaker 2:

Wake up, and that's that I wake up. I'm brilliant, i wake up and.

Speaker 1:

I wake up and it's just done. Do you mean in terms of like like a day where I'm like I'm gonna write today?

Speaker 2:

Yes, not how you structure your day, but how you approach that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, i mean, i feel like right now I am in a place where I, you know, i've I've been, i've been in LA for this month and it's like the intention was to like be here and just like really reset and get some new writing done. And I Think, in a lot I've been, i've been a little, i've been a little blocked these days, like I feel like I, i Every day I'm like, okay, i'm gonna write today, and then I like go to a coffee shop or I go and sit down, and it's just like I just don't do it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I just don't do it.

Speaker 1:

I don't know. I like I, i'm like I can't. I Don't know what I want to write about right now. Yeah, i mean that's such. Yeah, right, no, no, no, like I, i And sometimes I can get past that right, and sometimes it's like you get past that that moment and you Get into a flow and you're able to get stuff out, but, like Recently, i haven't been feeling that.

Speaker 2:

Sure.

Speaker 1:

I.

Speaker 2:

Think that's such a relatable thing for so many comics. I think it is always a Valley and peaks and sort of Creative process. It's hard to force. You can structure it, which will help. Yeah, it's hard to force and I feel like every time a new comic has asked me What my process is throughout the years, my answer is always what you just said. It's always like I don't write enough. They're like how do you write? I'm like I don't write enough.

Speaker 1:

That's not really, you know, it's funny that we I think that that's the majority of people's experience Mm-hmm, yeah, because it's so hard Yeah the blank piece of paper like Yeah, taking that and knowing what's going to be funny.

Speaker 2:

Sorry, i keep cutting.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, no, no, no, um, i Think that like for me right now, it's also this thing of like I think I'm thinking too big picture about, about Writing, and like the next step, because it's like I just taped this hour special, which is like The material. It's from across. You know six or seven years of writing, and I think I'm like a little bit in my head about like, okay, well, what's the next hour? Gonna, what do I want that to look like and feel like and what do I want like the themes to be? and I think I'm just like Think it's, like it's a little bit. I can't, i'm not gonna know that until, you know, a year from now, when I have it like it's, i think I just need to like Start small and just be like, well, what's the thing that like I want to write about today? What's like interesting To me, what's like a story that I want to tell, or like where is my what? what, what's a topic that I want to just like meditate on today?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because otherwise the teams will come.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they'll, they'll, they'll come out naturally, i think. But I think it's just like I'm I'm a little bit paralyzed by the big picture, yeah. Yeah yeah, that makes sense.

Speaker 2:

I mean it's it's a daunting task, but I think you're Yeah, i think you're right to like Understand that it's not. You don't need to think about how Your joke is. You're your sets gonna be cohesive in an hour or whatever, how these themes are gonna relate to.

Speaker 2:

You're just gonna write about your interests and then, naturally, those themes will present and Mold together and the material will shape itself in that way, yeah, yeah much like your hour did, but I think you'll experience something very different in this next hour, where you will be able to get it done in a year and it will be better than your seven years of material was. I think you'll find that, because of how much you're working, you know you weren't working like this for the In terms of like quality stage time for the last six years. Yeah, it's very different the way that that that material will develop exponentially.

Speaker 1:

That's true, but I think that, like there's I also think that and I feel like we've talked about this a lot on here Just about like the idea that you have to be able, you have to be willing to take big risks, and there's jokes that I've been doing that, i have been holding onto that and I'm just so tired of them, and they were fine.

Speaker 2:

You hate them. You start to hate them.

Speaker 1:

I hate them. I feel so resentful towards the jokes.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you hate that, it works.

Speaker 1:

I hate that. It makes me feel so full of self-hatred when they come out of it. When I walk off stage, i'm like well, I did that, but that didn't feel good at all. So I don't know. I think that that's probably a common experience too. I think that you've expressed that.

Speaker 2:

It's a common experience in any comedian who is not a hack, because a hack it just goes whatever this is great, this feels good and an artist goes no, it doesn't matter how hard they're laughing. I've done this a thousand times. I'm sick of it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, but it's so scary to start from scratch.

Speaker 2:

Yes, yeah, comedy's hard, kids. Don't try it at home. Or you should try it at home, like I did, living with my parents. Hit it.

Speaker 1:

Hit it. That was me doing symbols. That was me doing the symbols at the end of a joke. Ba, ba ba.

Speaker 2:

Ba, ba, ba, Cha, cha cha.

Speaker 1:

Cha cha, cha, ba, ba, ba ba. I'm loving it.

Speaker 2:

You should do some more drums for Clinton to sample.

Speaker 1:

Ba ba ba Ba ba ba ba Ba ba cha ba cha ba cha ba cha cha cha cha changes, turn the beat around.

Speaker 2:

Turn the beat around. Yeah, that's not the David Listen. So, uh-oh, it's going in the quarter jar.

Speaker 1:

Oh, i said, listen, it's going in the quarter jar.

Speaker 2:

Here's something that I really wanted to talk about is you know how Sheila likes to troll and she likes to make fun? Well, what's one of her favorite topics to make fun of me for?

Speaker 1:

Um. What does mommy like? to make fun of you for Yes tattoos She likes to. Tattoos She likes to make fun of you for your tattoos because she's horrified that you've marred the beautiful body that she created, that she birthed out of her. How dare you ruin?

Speaker 2:

Don't say birth like that.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's the truth. You were birthed out of her. You were, were you not?

Speaker 2:

I don't know, maybe I was Sorry, did you?

Speaker 1:

come out of daddy's butthole.

Speaker 2:

Don't. What are you doing? No, I didn't come out of daddy's butthole. Why did I repeat it? I love how that made you laugh so hard, Yeah it did.

Speaker 1:

It made me laugh. You couldn't even get it out. I thought of it in my head and I was like this is going to be gross and funny.

Speaker 2:

So so mommy doesn't like your tattoos, Nor does she like the greater world's tattoos, right?

Speaker 1:

She doesn't like tattoos.

Speaker 2:

She's constantly making fun of, and she was on one talking about tattoos, and So she starts to do an impression of somebody presumably getting tattoos and explaining why they get tattoos. She said suffer and celebrate, suffer and celebrate. Look at my arm, look at my thighs, look how tough I am, suffer and celebrate What. I guess that's the theme she thinks people want.

Speaker 1:

I mean, that's so poetic.

Speaker 2:

They're like look how tough I am. It is suffer and celebrate. And I told her. I said, what if I got that tattooed on me Because it made me laugh so hard?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, because, literally, like, anyone will say a phrase or you'll get an idea and you'll be like, oh, what if I get that tattooed on me? And everyone's like, yeah, that would be funny. And then you do it, yeah, wow, then you do it, yeah.

Speaker 2:

I'm going to get a gummy bear getting fished by my shark, so Getting fished. I asked I'm on one today. Yeah, you certainly are Getting fished. I said what if I got that tattooed? And she said I'd kill myself because I gave you the idea.

Speaker 1:

Wow, god, that's dark.

Speaker 2:

Suffer and celebrate.

Speaker 1:

Suffer and celebrate. That should be the name of your next album, though That's a really good album title.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's a good idea.

Speaker 1:

That should be the name of your CrowdWork album.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh, which is a great segue into. I wanted to ask you what you like is two part question What you like out of your openers since this is kind of headlining is new to you now. in the last year you haven't really had openers prior. So, what do you like out of an opener, both onstage and offstage?

Speaker 1:

in the brain room When they give me compliments. I like when they give me compliments and treats Treats. Just kidding, i am.

Speaker 2:

And sorry, two parter, how do you feel about CrowdWork, Because a lot of people talk about how it affects the dynamic of the show. A lot of headliners don't like it.

Speaker 1:

A lot of headliners don't like it. I don't mind it when openers do CrowdWork, i mean I feel like Sometimes I think it's nice because it opens up the room in a way that I can engage with. It's like getting when someone before me gets to know the audience a little bit. It's like there's stuff that I can then play off of. But when someone does too much it can be problematic because then you get up on stage and it's like they want the crowd, then They want only crowd work.

Speaker 1:

They want only crowd work. It's a strange. Yes, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:

And yes, And it's interesting because the people, the headliners that don't like it. I've heard a lot. one of the criticisms is that they don't want to have to watch the whole show. A lot of people like to decompress in the green room and do their own thing, go through their own routine, And if somebody before you is doing a ton of crowd work and then you go out there and you're like, what do you two do?

Speaker 1:

And they're like we just talked about it, the whole audience, yeah.

Speaker 2:

And then you look like an idiot. But you, not you. you're out there, peathing.

Speaker 1:

I'm out there creeping and peeping. I'm out there creeping and peeping. No, i like to. I mean, i like to watch the show, i like to feel what the like. For me it feels really important, at least at this point, to feel what the energy of the room is before, because it's like, yeah, i don't like the idea of going out cold and not knowing what's come before, like that's yeah that's very stressful to me. How do you feel about it?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, especially if the no, the exact same. Like if, especially if the crowd's really really bad or rowdy, like you need to know about that So you can like adjust your game plan going in And sometimes, like, if a crowd is insane and drunk, like you can't really open with material because they're not paying attention, and you have to know that and you have to be ready to like I don't know, make fun of somebody in the room in the audience who's being stupid or something Like find something that's happened Like you talked about, like to play off of the comic before you And, like you know, with me it's like we're siblings. So like it's definitely, like probably crucial when I am before you for you to really pay attention and like you know, because you know my jokes, so you don't know if, like, i might not do a joke.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, there's some jokes that, like I do, that I often will reference something that you talked about right before, and if you don't do that joke, then it's like, oh well. Or if you do it and I don't you know yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, what a treat for you that you get to learn from me set after set.

Speaker 1:

Oh God, I mean, I am. I am thanking my lucky stars. What do you like? What do you like in an opener? What Go ahead?

Speaker 2:

What do you like in an open? I like somebody who is it's it's way. it's funny because I always was taught this early on, but I didn't really understand it that it's way more important how they act offstage than how they act onstage, And not to say that they're how they do onstage is very, very important, but it's a little bit more important how they are to be around, because if you can't hang out like it's such a stressful when you have to be around them all the time, like if it's a weekend.

Speaker 2:

It's the whole weekend. You're like, you're basically like living with this person. So, yeah, that's very important, I think. I think somebody who is not going to react to the way that I did in my early years when things go wrong, I like what I look for is the opposite of how I was when I was a new comic.

Speaker 1:

So I want new comics to not be how I was, someone who doesn't make it about them right, where it's like they understand that, like however they did on stage, is like you know. I think that the instinct where, if you open for someone, like early on, and you bomb, you want to go back and be like I'm sorry, i bombed, like I messed it up, i just want you to know that. I know that I did bad.

Speaker 2:

How bad it was, and that is Not about you.

Speaker 1:

It's not about you.

Speaker 2:

It's not about you Yeah, and nobody cares. Everybody's in their own head.

Speaker 1:

And then you put the onus on the other person to like take care of you and to be like no, no, no, like, let me, let me talk you down. You did great, and that's not a position that anybody wants to be in, especially somebody who is like is going through their own insecurities Is above you. Is going, but is also like going through their own stuff where it's like you know, doing an hour or doing 45 minutes to an hour.

Speaker 1:

Like you're thinking about your own insecurities and your own, like what went right, what went wrong, like you shouldn't have to, like you know, walk someone down from that.

Speaker 2:

Hold their hand, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, It's exhausting And it's like, yeah, it's so crazy when you see it. A good example we talk about Hannah Youngholm a lot. She's a good example of what you should be like. Like she never, never made Shayna too, who you have opened for you a lot.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, shayna Rabani, i've had opened for me the past couple of weeks and is just like such a like, so so funny, so like lovely and wonderful Both of these comics.

Speaker 2:

So funny Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Just like just.

Speaker 2:

I don't mean to put there like, yeah, offstage, no, no, yeah.

Speaker 1:

I mean that's also like important, that like it's a person who can kind of like open up a room and actually has like good jokes, Like you know, like I feel like I love working with both of them so much.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, who are your top two least favorite people you've had open.

Speaker 1:

That's a great question, Let me. Let me get into it. I'm gonna name names, I feel like, and I won't, I won't. I won't say any specific details about this, but we had someone recently because when we do, when we co-headline, it's like a host feature who just like got on stage and just did like everything wrong, right, Like didn't, didn't know our names, didn't know who to bring up, Like didn't know, like mixed up all the credits and then did like a really kind of like like hateful racist set.

Speaker 1:

And they were just like, okay, this is, you're literally, this is like by the book, like every, you did every single thing wrong.

Speaker 2:

Yes, yeah, yes, and seasoned to about a decade into comedy.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2:
