Totally agree! Props to her. She is clearly well researched. You can see Steve and Jerry are truly engaged in the conversation and the questions flow, without being forced. Jerry and Steve are not easy interview subjects. They've heard every single question that can be asked about comedy, so the mod did a great job.

what a gem, to hear two of the all-timers talk simply and directly about the "craft." I could listen to these two talk for hours. thanks for this.

Yes! I agree with Steve Martin. Jerry’s cadence or the rhythm of his jokes are like Haiku candy, sweet and with a pattern. It’s his unique skill.

The irony of talking about how important rhythm and cadence is in comedy.. AND THEN ALTERING THE VIDEO'S RHYTHM WITH COPIOUS EDITS. comedy is like music, you can't just take out 20 seconds here, 5 seconds there. people listen to comedy because it is real and pure. not filtered. upload the unedited version.

To be fair Groucho had very good writers. And I loved the guy. You know he always said he wanted to be remembered as a writer. It's a great shame he was a terribly unhappy man.

Thanks ! That was a great reunion : Jerry, Steve and this wonderful woman who remembers everything ! Just great :)

I have seen many comedians, big and small. I saw George Carlin twice, who was fantastic, but the ultimate was Steve Martin, whom I saw in 1976 for $4.00 in Dubuque, IA. I laughed so hard that my abdominal muscles hurt. I wanted him to go away, simply because I needed to give them a rest. He walked off stage and I breathed a sigh of relief, he came back out to thank each and every one of us, which he did, pointing to everyone in the audience. Even today, the thought of it makes me laugh. Thanks Steve.

Two of my absolute favorite people to listen to, thanks so VERY much for this interview. Joyous.

Love Jerry Seinfeld, I watch Comedians in Cars whenever i need to cheer up :) Steve Martin 80s and 90s movies including BowFinger were great as well

Jerry once said that one reason he got into comedy was because he had seen other comics get on stage and tell jokes and then come off and talk together about comedy, about jokes and he KNEW he wanted to be 'one of those guys, over there.' And this simple desire, has been a large part of my inspiration as well.

Why on earth wouldn't you not post the long form for this New Yorker. I'm completely baffled by this decision 🤣

Jerry: interesting to hear you discuss your return to comedy. I actually saw you in Montreal Bell centre one night and Orny Adams the next night (200 people max.) You both were so funny. I even brought my “Comedian” DVD hoping to get it signed !

Steve makes an unbelievable point re: the standup of Jerry Seinfeld. at 6:00 - myself I can't do it justice - so it's at 6:00 (and before). It speaks to Jerry making words dance, change shape - I'm often just in awe of any Jerry performance. Jerry brings you to the end of the world and back - it's a privilege being able to watch/hear Jerry.

Steve’s voice is classic, I guess you just get to a point where everything you say sounds good.

A great inteviewer! Editing is too intrusive though.

Steve & Jerry are far better people than I am, not just comedically. Sounded like a rough interview. Could be the editing for KZread or more likely the actual interview itself.

Thank you, this is delicious...

These two are so right about swearings and other Comedians who do nothing else but swearing, each sentence starts and ends with an F word. I hate it!! Jerry Seinfeld is the Master of Comedy with good taste and Steve Martin is close second plus Billy Crystal and a few others.

Hey lady, Alex Van Halen wants his Van Hagar era drum kit back!

like I say to fellow Comics.= "It's best to start out with at least 4 real winner jokes!" If they can pull that off great then the Audience most likely will never boo /shoot you down.

Me!= I just tell the Audience the scene and then I get right to the back and forth joke! Like he says to her and then she says to him or vise versa or 2 guys or 3 Ladies or whomever! The crazier the situation is the better. Often it's me making my female voice that gets people laughing good. But once they hear each joke and add them up they know that I'm a very gifted comedy Writer and then Comedian.

Jerry Seinfeld is a surgeon of comedy

Seinfeld has the most genius gift of writing a joke but Chris Rock has the most genius gift of delivering a joke.

Interesting Mr. Brown.

I agreed to steve martin i wont judge sienfeld is observational comedian. As i seen few his jokes on his episode. Its more like about how life we live and how we lernt and not changed and don't learn at all

The heavy editing of this interview kills any flow.

When he said you need to have somewhat of an irritable view to make fun of something, it all clicked for me! I have a funny friend, and he is the only person that can make me laugh till I cry. And I finally realized how. He becomes irritated at something random, he spreads hate to it and criticizes it, sometimes even sarcastically. Like one day he called me and told me “you know what I absolutely hate? LITTLE CAESARS. I hate how you can get a whole pizza for just 5 dollars fresh out of the oven. And why? So we can submit to this little man who looks nothing like julius ceasar!” And he says it so frantically as if it is a matter of great importance. Thats a funny joke! The absurdness mixed with the irritation is just perfect

...telling the truth
