(LAUGHTER) >> Jon: HOW ARE YOU HANDLING
THIS?
IS IT, WHEN DID THIS HIT FOR YOU WHEN YOU REALIZE, LIKE (BLEEP)
THIS IS IT.
THIS IS BIG TIME!
>> THIS MOMENT RIGHT HERE IS --
>> IT'S A GOOD INDICATOR, YOU KNOW. FAIR INDICATOR.
>> IT'S HAPPENING.
>> Jon: NO, NO. NO.
>> BUT I THINK THAT WE WERE LUCKY ENOUGH THAT
WE HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF THE WEB SERIES BEFORE.
>> Jon: RIGHT. >> SO IT FELT LEGITIMATE TO US
BEFORE, WE HAD TO VALIDATE OURSELVES BEFORE OTHER
PEOPLE DID -- >> Jon: RIGHT.
>> AND I THINK THAT REALLY FORMS THE EXPERIENCE WHICH FORMS THE
PRODUCT.
>> Jon: DOES IT SEEM DIFFERENT? YOU KNOW, SOMEONE WAS TALKING
TO ME EARLIER ABOUT, YOU KNOW, I'M TRYING TO GET INTO COMEDY
WRITING AND ALL THAT, IT FEEL LIKE THERE'S MORE OPPORTUNITY
THAN THERE EVER WAS FOR PEOPLE. IT'S BEEN DEMOCRATIZED
TO SOME EXTENT.
>> YEAH. >> YEP.
>> Jon: DO YOU THINK A SHOW LIKE THIS, VOICES LIKE YOURS, UNIQUE
AND JOYFUL COULD HAVE GOTTEN ON THE AIR WITHOUT THE WEB?
>> I DON'T THINK SO, NO. >> Jon: YEAH.
>> NOPE.
(LAUGHTER) >> Jon: WAS IT HARD?
>> YEAH, I MEAN, WE BOTH CAME UP AT THE UPRIGHT CITIZENS BRIGADE.
>> Jon: RIGHT. >> WOOT WOOT!
>> TAKING CLASSES, AND GOT REALLY --
>> Jon: GREAT PLACE. >> YEAH. WONDERFUL PLACE.
AND WE GOT REALLY TUNNEL VISIONED INTO LIKE WELL,
THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT IS TO GET ON A HOUSE TEAM AND YOU
GOTTA DO THAT AND IF YOU DO THAT THEN YOU DO THE NEXT AND
LIKE, YOU KNOW --
>> Jon: RIGHT.
>> AND THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR US.
AND THEN WE WERE SORT OF LIKE NEEDING SOMETHING TO SEND
OUR PARENTS TO PROVE THAT WE WERE, IN FACT, DOING COMEDY.
>> SEND THEM A LINK.
>> Jon: AND YOU KNOW HOW TO USE THIS INTERNET.
>> JON, COME ON.
>> THEY CAN CLICK A LINK IN AN EMAIL.
>> Jon: REALLY?
>> AND IT'D JUST SHOW, THE WEB EPISODE WOULD JUST SHOW UP.
(LAUGHTER)
>> THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO PRESS PLAY. IT LOADS, YOU KNOW.
>> Jon: NOW DO THEY UNDERSTAND AT THIS POINT THAT THERE IS A
SUBTLE SEPARATION BETWEEN THAT AND TELEVISION?
LIKE DID THEY UNDERSTAND ONCE YOU GOT ON COMEDY CENTRAL
DID THEY THINK LIKE OH YEAH, THAT'S YOUR WEB SERIES OR
DID THEY THINK LIKE OH YEAH, THAT'S A NETWORK ON THE BOX.
I DON'T HAVE TO CLICK ANYTHING.
