Sorry that your jokes aren't landing.

But seriously, repeating a 3 letter tag line to fit in is not "comedy".

I also don't think Joe is very funny, though a lot of his guests/friend circle is (Tom Segura, Christina P, Ari S etc). His strength is in free flowing conversational interviewing, hence why his podcast is leagues more popular than his stand up (relative to the pack).

Sure, because repeating the same memes over and over again is an hilarious form of humour ;)
