#65: "I'll tell you someone who's not discussing the ins-and-outs of pigeon divorce: a dentist in Westchester."
“Even for Goblin P_rn, This Is Pretty Out There...” Subscribe, rate, and please leave us a funny ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review wherever you listen to podcasts. Welcome back for another episode of Is There Something In This? Dools and Chatto are back in the writers’ room, slinging zingers, avoiding Obvious Ocean Liners and vying for the Outback Steakhouse Pick-of-the-Week®! Outside, a lightning storm walked down the East River, and every news helicopter in the tri-state hung in the rain like blowflies over a bin. Scott and I hadn’t made a podcast in two weeks. I was away winning an award and then losing a dog, and you can’t record a comedy podcast in the fortnight between those two things without it sounding like a hostage video. The award: You’re Not a Real Dog Owner Until... (https://www.realdogowner.com) (https://www.realdogowner.com)won the Reuben for Best Book Illustration. The book is dedicated to Morris, who died the same week. Then we did the jokes. A production of Death of a Salesman cast entirely with horses. A dragon that’s been yassified rather than slain. A Scrabble box held aloft at a lake house, chalk poetry on Bedford Avenue, and whether even chalk is too permanent for it. Somewhere in there, we stopped writing jokes and had a proper argument about opinions versus comedy. Scott wants to be a mirror, not a megaphone. I want a strong opinion, even a wrong one. Bob Mankoff and Dolly Parton were both invoked. We didn’t resolve it, which is why the podcast works. Also: pigeon divorce, witch daycare, a man in a kiddie pool at the office, and the four rounds of notes I’ve had on a goblin-porn book cover. Because why not? I’m at the Columbus Comedy Festival (https://columbuscomedyfest.com/)Friday through Sunday. Ohio, come. Book early.

#64: The Champagne Opened Itself
Subscribe, rate, and please leave us a funny ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review wherever you listen to podcasts. Welcome back for another episode of Is There Something In This? Dools and Chatto are back in the writer’s room, slinging zingers, avoiding Obvious Ocean Liners and vying for the Outback Steakhouse Pick-of-the-Week®! There is a moment about six seconds into this episode where a cork exits a bottle of Moët with no human involvement whatsoever. Scott is still mid-intro, still saying the podcast's name, and an inanimate object has already reviewed the show. We took it as a good omen, because there was something to celebrate: You’re Not a Real Dog Owner Until... (https://www.realdogowner.com)picked up a nomination for Best Book Illustration at the 80th Annual National Cartoonists Society Reuben Awards. (Named after Rube Goldberg, founding president of the NCS, and not, as Scott generously suggested, the reason people call the Oscars “the Reubens of film.”) We recorded this one on the way to Columbus, Ohio, where the winners get announced, and where I have spent twenty-four years being extremely relaxed about never having won anything. Scott called the “it’s an honour just to be nominated” position what it is: loser talk. If you have never listened before, here is the format. Scott Dooley and I are two Australian comedians in New York who draw cartoons for The New Yorker and elsewhere, and every week we sit down with a drink and pitch each other half-finished ideas until one of us says “is there something in this?” Sometimes there is. Sometimes it dies on the table in front of you. Either way, you get to watch the sausage being made, which is either fascinating or deeply unpleasant depending on your relationship with sausage. This week the drink situation got ahead of us. We went to the pub first. Scott arrived wearing a portion of his beer. By minute seven we had already estaablished that the great advantage of moderate success is that nobody can be bothered canceling you..

If you believe your copyrighted work has been used in a way that does not fall within Fair Use, please contact us, and we will address any concerns promptly. If you’re new here… Hi. We have a podcast called Is There Something In This?, where we sit down with a beer and try to build a New Yorker cartoon out of nothing but two Australian accents and a shared refusal to be defeated by a joke idea. We hadn’t recorded in a while. How long is hard to say precisely, but Scott put a pin in it for us: the last time we potted, the Knicks hadn’t won anything, there had never been hand-to-hand combat on the White House lawn, and Charlie Kirk was alive. So. Bit of a gap. What the show actually is If you’ve never listened, the premise is embarrassingly simple: Every week we bring in half-formed ideas, and we hold them up to the light together until they either become a cartoon or die of shame. Some become dailies for the New Yorker’s site and socials. Some go into the magazine. Most of them go nowhere, and you get to watch that happen, which is the best part. The whole exercise is right there in the name. Somebody says a thing. The other one says: Is there something in this? And then we find out, live, with no editing and no dignity. We got about ninety seconds in before I derailed us with a story about the comedian Gary Gulman, backstage, being told the costumes were designed by a man named Beowulf Borrit. Scott’s contention is that with a name like Beowulf you have exactly two career options: Broadway costume designer, or vampire. Which led us to the image of young Beowulf brushing his teeth in the mirror while someone gently breaks the news. Hey, buddy. You can see yourself. It’s like a fighter pilot learning he’s colourblind. The Knicks cartoon The cartoon we got up was the Knicks seating plan, because the tickets were eye-wateringly expensive. World Cup fans looked at those prices and said no thank you. The sections were the usual suspects: celebrities, your boss’s boss’s boss, tech and finance bros, and then, in the cheap seats of the soul, real fans who are terrible with money. A mate texted Scott the same night: Yo, I feel pretty called out, I’m going tonight. He spent a fortune and watched them lose because Trump was in attendance. We also got fact-checked by Ronny Chieng, who suggested we add crypto. I said crypto lives inside tech and finance bros. It was two in the afternoon. I officiated a Titanic-themed wedding This is real. I am ordained in the state of New York, which means going downtown to City Hall to register with the county clerk, where they marry someone roughly every five seconds and you can always spot the second wedding by the white two-piece tracksuit. The clerk handed me my paperwork and said, congratulations, sir. I said, oh, I’m not getting married, I’m officiating. She said, oh, I’m sorry. I said, no, no, I’m divorced. We’re now having an entire conversation. I explain that I’ve just filed my divorce papers and I’m about to officiate a wedding. She says: that’s bad luck. I said: you think that’s bad luck? The theme is “Titanic!” They are getting married on the door. They have recreated the door. I am dressed as the captain, which Scott correctly pointed out is a man famous for steering directly into a disaster, and if that’s the metaphor for the marriage, well. Also worth noting, for anyone whose art is stuck: go and sit in City Hall and watch the weddings come in and out. The parents, the divorcees, all in the same building. It is the richest room in the city. I sketched the clerk at the desk and gave it to her, and she went from I hate my goddamn job to oh my God, holy s**t! in about a second. Scott said he could never do that, because he can’t draw, so his version would be walking up and saying “Hey, look at these photos I took of you while you weren’t watching.” Send us your rubbish ideas Genuinely.
