About this episode

Gary Vaynerchuk joins Sam Morril and Mark Normand to discuss comedy, marketing strategies, and the impact of social media on stand-up.

Gary Vaynerchuk (Gary Vee) stops by and turns the pod into a full-on masterclass in comedy, marketing, and the modern internet. Mark and Sam start by talking road gigs, bombing in Oklahoma, and the misery of 5 a.m. flights after three-show Saturdays before diving into movies, Robert Duvall, and the strange beauty standards of old Hollywood leading men. Gary jumps in with a breakdown of how comedians should be using social media, why clipping up specials is the real marketing engine now, and how algorithms can actually help shape material. The guys debate whether posting jokes online ruins stand-up or makes it better, and Gary explains why testing material with the internet might be more powerful than playing small clubs for weeks. They also get into the future of content, live streaming, TikTok strategy, selling products during comedy streams, and why “overexposure” might be a myth in the modern media world. Along the way there’s Knicks playoff talk, immigrant upbringing stories, comedy process talk, and plenty of classic Mark and Sam chaos. Go Bills.
