Definitely, Rogan gave a lot of hacks life. Especially Schaub. He literally told Schaub on his podcast to quit MMA and become a comic.
Schulz, I would give more credit to CTG for him. And Chris Morrow, who also produced The Combat Jack Show. They unleashed Schulz on the world and he unleashed Osh Kosh.

Nah man, Shulz was going IFC movies and really struggling, until Rogan gave him an interview
That literally blew Shulz up….and Flagrant. Shulz says it himself. Rogan got him a Rolex
. I used to listen to TBI all the time. Remember their read outs, about what they had going on etc. After the alt right Andy stuff/intervention, Shulz kinda leaned into that type of time…started focusing more on Flagrant etc, and got into the Rogan verse. His blow up was for sure Joe Rogan assisted.

A lot of comedians I don't like make lots of money.
It can be confusing, but I've come to accept it as a normal part of life.

I will give it a watch, but I have liked each one of his specials less and less
It is like watching Penny play in Phoenix. You see flashes of what he was, but that is not enough.
Just hoping there are fewer weak slow-motion post-up trans jokes.
It is going on like 7 years, Dave gotta move one

Thoroughly enjoyed the special, best one in a while IMO. The perfect length as well, entertaining throughout.

Yup, Dave benefits from this too.
The barometer for what makes a good standup has definitely changed. Some of them know it too, that they're mediocre and shouldn't be doing arenas.

Mediocre comedians have filled up large arenas for years.
Dane Cook sold out Madison Square Garden and I never laughed at a single joke he told.

has it changed?
tbh id say it's always been the case that being broadly appealing enough to sell out an arena, means you prob aren't that interesting of a comedian.

I get what you’re saying but without CTG putting Schulz on initially, he wouldn’t get to the point of being recognized enough to get the chance to be on Rogan’s podcast. Everybody gets a Rogan boost but CTG is the first famous face to support Schulz.

Still somewhat, yeah if even just a slight shift. You say they weren't that interesting, but they all had a 'thing', their own schtick. Now you have the most milquetoast dudes able to tour just off their allegiances.has it changed?

Yeah he'd probably be another comedian putting along without charlamagane, we wouldn't know like that, he probably doesn't make it to Rogan. Like Shane Gillis and Mark Normand before that kinda crowd embraced them (though they tend to be the funnier of the bunch).
So many actual killers out there on a smaller level but they'll never get that push.

the whole rogan tree sucks at standup, honestly
but they all got in on podding early and have amassed huge audiences
I feel much of the sold out shows for their standup is actually fans just wanting to see them in person/support, really

hot take
Im actually ok with dane cook
"I did my best" is one of my fave bits of all time

Yeah, I can think of worse comedians than Dane Cook for sure. Dude can tell a story.

Some of those comedians aren't actually selling out arenas. Only a certain portion of the seats get put up for sale. It just sounds better than doing a theater
MSG vs The Theater at MSG. 19k seats vs 5k seats.

I used to like Segura...haven't watched his last couple of specials
And I love Bobby Lee and think he is absolutely hilarious in the podcast format, but his standup is meh

Facts, I saw Desus & Mero at Hulu Theater at MSG. That was their running joke. “We made it to MSG- sort of”.

Easily the top 3 best Dave Chapelle specials ever.
Super short though / wish it was longer

It was cool, had some very funny moments. Caught me way off guard with the Jim Carrey story would've never guessed where he was going with that.
Since l saw he was mentioned, Andrew Schultz definitely has some funny stuff. He is very clever. The first bit had me crying

Is Schultz really doing arenas? or did he just do one arena in his home town?
because if all it is is MGS, not really into his stuff but its def not weird or surprising at all.
