In this brief excerpt from the YouTube video, two speakers discuss a comedian’s daily ritual of writing a joke first thing in the morning. The comedian explains that the habit reinforces their purpose as a performer and sometimes yields usable material. The current joke focuses on the rapid growth of his pubic hair, likening it to an invasive species and describing the challenges of managing it, including daily trimming and a ‘handlebar mustache’ on his legs. The exchange is light‑hearted, self‑deprecating, and showcases the personal creative process behind stand‑up comedy.

Or do you have rituals in your personal life?
I guess I have some rituals. Like I get up super early and I, I write a joke.
Every day?
Every day. Not funny.
Is it the first thing you do?
It's the first thing I do. Not funny, but sometimes funny. Sometimes it's usable. Sometimes it's something that, but that's the first, 'cause it reminds me of my purpose in life was to be a comedian, whatever.
Do you remember the joke you wrote this morning?
This week it's all about pubic hair and my pubic hair grows so fast. It, it's, I am my own kudzu. So it's like I'm my own invasive species.
Like, how often do you have to trim it?
Every day. And sometimes I— and I get a legitimate 5 o'clock shadow.
Like, is the goal for it to be bald?
No, but the goal for it is just to be contained. It goes beyond like underwear. Like, I have like a handlebar mustache. Like, it's growing down my legs. And I just think that's a little much. It's a lot.
It's a lot. So funny.
