Matthew would be a great Comedy teacher. Not being sarcastic. He provided concise, dense commentary regarding comedy and Kill Tony that was spot on. Thank you for some Inside Baseball where I didn’t want to put a gun to my head over 🙏🏻
I have really been enjoying this podcast. It’s so refreshing to hear open and cathartic conversations of professional artists. Also to hear the men be open is such a great thing to have it normalized. Thank you for this helps the demons
Jordan in the future you will be remembered as one of the greatest comics of this time. Matthew's perspective on structure and concept could be useful to you but don't stress it too much you are great.
ex professional ballet dancer…my knees are mangled but hearing that people use exercise as self abuse really opened my eyes. I now see I am currently doing that to myself…
Oh man hearing someone else who hits themselves like that got me harder than I would have thought. Really appreciate the honesty. I have felt like such a freak for that. Cutting is at least more legible to people. I've never heard anyone else talk about the hitting. Relate so hard to all of this.
This whole convo hit all the right notes! Love the break down of not only delivering jokes on stage but the breakdown of delivery. The breakdown of literary story telling. Side note - Kyle Kinane is a treasure. Demetri Martin’s joke “the difference between peeing into a pool and peeing in a pool is location location location” that might be word play and location?
Great episode as usual. I’ll definitely be looking out for more Matt Broussard content. Obviously you’re the pro Jordan & I’m not trying to tell you what to do, but in terms of Matt’s advice from Bert about putting your best joke around the 20 min mark to keep attention, he is right in the technical/algorithmic sense, but to me that is more pertaining to certain comics. Jordan, your comedy buzz right now (really over the past 18 months) has been on an astronomical level to the point where the fans that have only known you a year & change are practically addicted to you in a cult like manner. We just want a full special from you in your own artistic & manic voice. Don’t play the algo games with your material for your 1st hour special. We’ll be watching it all the way through regardless. Now when you get to like your 3rd, 4th, 5th specials, you can play algo games to keep attention. Treat it like an album. When a rapper, rock band, country singer makes their 1st official album while they have all the buzz in the world, that 1st album is better when it’s in their truest voice in terms of song style & the sequencing of songs because it’s theoretically their introduction to the world. I put you in that same boat🤷🏾♂️🤙🏾
Misdirection & pun comparison hyperbole sensoral (or, synesthetic) paradox/recursion symmetry (structure within the structure/dramatic irony) irony meta a joke "is data compression" (using comparison, simile, and metaphor) any good joke is using two devices or two joke structures at once [this list] is not prescriptive but, rather, descriptive ("keep my mother's name out of your fcking mouth!") and that it (Jordan's too Italian for therapy joke) in the impressions realm and fast paced changing of characters as having some surprise value new comics talk about being a comic more than established comics I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!
I relate so much to how Matt felt when he hurt himself and why. I dropped out of highschool and became a manager somewhere and worked instead but I still struggle with my compulsion to harm. I do have BPD so it’s a bit different but the way he described it felt so in tune with how I did.
I have pmdd too, what stage of rollercoaster emotions are you in? 😂I’m just coming out of the everyone and everything can fuck off stage til next month 😂
Jesus, you're much more strategic, calculated & confident in this podcast compared to the one you did with your sister 2 months ago... Most comedians often have aspirations of becoming famous actors but I think you actually have the fixins.
Matt describing his knee issue sounds like a bakers cyst rupturing and/or a torn meniscus.. similar issue happened to me in May of last year cycling 30 miles of trail in CT
Ding something is one thing. Persecution and oppression is entirely differently then taking action and doing the right thing. Not even the same thing. Scapegoating and oppression is not even the same thing.
OCD scrupulosity can fixate both on religion or morals/values. I have a mix of both. For a values/morals example, my brain thinks that I MUST be authentic at all times and I NEED to make everyone understand that I’m being authentic if they might think that I’m not, and I will compulsively pursue both of those things into oblivion.
Being old is interesting... i have only known who one person on all of the episodes of this podcast.. That's just my stupid brain.. the being old part is at some point it's like.. naw.. i don't even want to know now...
Jordan please watch the movie Fat Girl (2001) and give your thoughts in some form. It’s one of the most fucked up movies I’ve seen and super punk rock feminist middle finger.
That's funny about the women comment I get it with the abortion and i agree but what about women sports,women bathrooms ,the middle east,women's genital mutilation ,birthing persons or whatever so bizarre

I think part of the thing about having terror about missing flights is our collective trauma from seeing Home Alone in our youths

I agree. You just being is so fun to watch.
Really appreciate the deep dives into things most folks glaze over. Bad Ass!

definitely the best part of watching comedians is when they are cracking themselves up and having fun
Great discussion!! Nerdy comedy stuff is the best!
Good morning Jordan Jensen, love your pod. hope you have great week
Wow this guy has anime hero hair, just waiting for his eyes to get 20 light shines in them!!!
😭🤣😂😆👏👏👏
Really enjoyed this episode! It’s nice to see a comic breakdown everything like a mathematician for us mathematicians.

Great episode!! Genuine convo
Jordan I’m a big fan- thank you for creating this podcast
Whoa! Matt’s description of a panic attack is an exact description of one of my reoccurring dreams/nightmares 😮😮😮😮

I honestly think most women were not attracted to their dad lol. That’s a you thing, Jordan.
Her dad was hot…most are not. You are not wrong. Most women don’t even find their partner attractive let alone their dad lol.
Haha preach!
This was such a great episode!!!!!
New fav pod!!!!
Misdirection & pun
comparison
hyperbole
sensoral (or, synesthetic)
paradox/recursion
symmetry (structure within the structure/dramatic irony)
irony
meta
a joke "is data compression" (using comparison, simile, and metaphor)
any good joke is using two devices or two joke structures at once
[this list] is not prescriptive but, rather, descriptive
("keep my mother's name out of your fcking mouth!") and that it (Jordan's too Italian for therapy joke) in the impressions realm and fast paced changing of characters as having some surprise value
new comics talk about being a comic more than established comics
I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH!!!!
OH AND that each joke is a gift from the universe that soooo adorable and real. good insight.
INSIDE BASEBALL
Cant wait to see you in March in Dublin!🎉
Prolly my fav RIP episode
I relate so much to how Matt felt when he hurt himself and why. I dropped out of highschool and became a manager somewhere and worked instead but I still struggle with my compulsion to harm. I do have BPD so it’s a bit different but the way he described it felt so in tune with how I did.
im here to support Jordan and all her endeavors because she thinks im gay for supporting her.
Matthew do not take comedy advice from Bert!!! Jesus!!
Being Jewish in Corpus Christie “k I don’t even know what that is” 😂😂😂
“I have a green head…I don’t know why that’s funny”. - said by Louis C.K when he was doing a bit about ducks. It was hilarious!❤🎉
Another solid ep in the books
I have pmdd too, what stage of rollercoaster emotions are you in? 😂I’m just coming out of the everyone and everything can fuck off stage til next month 😂
I like the inside-comedy-stories, but I'm also a creative-type. So, thanks!
"Phuc Yeah !" (8 times to the tune of the RIP Jordan Jensen podcast theme song).
Delving into the art of stand-up, dope. Hope to get out to a club sometime soon. Have a successful 2025.
Jesus, you're much more strategic, calculated & confident in this podcast compared to the one you did with your sister 2 months ago... Most comedians often have aspirations of becoming famous actors but I think you actually have the fixins.
Great ep ❤
Be easier on women, yes! We love you JJ!! ❤
Although maybe don’t because it’s funny af.
I wanna be Jordan’s friend so bad.
Hell yeah
Matt describing his knee issue sounds like a bakers cyst rupturing and/or a torn meniscus.. similar issue happened to me in May of last year cycling 30 miles of trail in CT
Shout out to Elizabeth Beizel haha, my friend dated her in high school and I saw at swim meeting. Remarkable.
I was really into the joke type analysis and all the inside baseball going on in this episode
yay toronto’s ahead
Jordan I hate you.. marry me.
Matthew is incorrect about Monday Punday being “pretty good” it’s PHENOMENAL
01:01:40 haha he's talking about Andrew Schultz 😅
ROCHESTER MENTIONED 😎
and in a positive light ?!?!
@hayleyjones8478 RIGHT?!?! rare
Sounds like you both could use a vacation

Wait until you pass 40 years old, parts hurt after you did absolutely nothing incorrectly.

Monday Punday rules. I solved the puzzle and it complemented me. I will be back.
Please get Louie on
this guy kinda just talks about himself
Daddy's pissed
PSA: Having a slow heart rate that doesn't respond to physical activity at all is NOT healthy.
Boom shaka laka
The taking a break for months at a time
MONDAY POD
Jordan please watch the movie Fat Girl (2001) and give your thoughts in some form. It’s one of the most fucked up movies I’ve seen and super punk rock feminist middle finger.
Jordan I didn’t think you’d ever drink the kool aid. Was a fan from day 1. Take care!
Very cool 👍
First? FIRST?!? FIIIIIIIRRRRRSSSSSTTTT!!!!! 😁❤
Good stuff. I’m gay
is it punching down if you make fun of your own gender?
its punching down if you think you are above other people
1:13:23 😂 the whole pod in a nutshell
Matt is far too analytical. A Dane Cook with less charm.
Doesn’t have any funny inside.
That's funny about the women comment I get it with the abortion and i agree but what about women sports,women bathrooms ,the middle east,women's genital mutilation ,birthing persons or whatever so bizarre
I can’t listen to this cutting talk 🤮
Turn it off
Right is not wrong.
I don't get what's funny about the J.P. joke 🫤 he's a super funny guy tho
1:03:04 I called this year's ago when you came on the scene!!! ✨ 🫀 I feel so validated. Also, long term Louis C K fan. 💪
Jordan I’m a big fan- thank you for creating this podcast
