Big Jay Oakerson (Legion of Skanks, The Bonfire Podcast) on TYSO - #199 

Two basketball legends in one room 🤘🏻

I always comment this on Big Jay videos, but i cant help it. The dude makes me so happy. He always puts me in a good mood. He's one of my favorite guests on any podcast. Love when he's on Kill Tony. Hyped to watch this and his special tonight!

I have a personal anecdote about Jay. I had a close friend who was very intelligent but dropped out of Uni to become a stand-up comedian despite everyone encouraging him to just stick with his degree and do comedy on the side. We are from a small rural town in Canada with no scene. He was amazing and after only 6 months - Jay happened across him and invited him on a tour to perform as an opener. It was a life changing experience for him. He said everyone was amazing and it gave him so much confidence to be able to perform and be recognized by the greats. Everyone found it awesome that comedians of this caliber would pay him any attention at all let alone give him such a big opportunity so early in his career :) Big Jay has a Big Heart

So many Big Jay podcasts coming out all at once. This is the one I need to listen to first.

Big Jay's havin' the time of his life playing around with Rick. So wholesome, haha.

Rick on skanks is something I both want and fear

Great special, this feels like an after show now

the juxtaposition of personalities, and comedic style blended perfectly . I like when very different people meet in the middle and create their own dynamic. Rick does this a lot, as he's very different than most people lol. This was the perfect example of that. Great episode.

Love this pairing! Thanks for every ep Ricky + the editing team. Gulp gulp gulp

Rick: how tall are you? Jay: 6’3” Rick: today? Jay: yup Rick: oh, well happy birthday This podcast is a fever dream of inside jokes and biffed one liners lmao

RICKY IS ON THE LOOSE !!!!

Rick being a phenomenal baller is the best not bit ever. Kills every time, boy his arms MUST be tired.

Big Jay is the man! I've been a goblin & skanks fan for at least 2 years now (skanks fan probably closer to 4 years) and I never thought I would see this crossover. Thank you Ricky for making dreams come true and boyyy are my fingers tired

This was awesome, hard to believe you two haven't met before the chemistry was fantastic. Thank you Ricky, very cool!

Rick, I am subscribed to 3 podcasts and you are the only comedian. very talented entertainer.

The fact Ricks uploaded this while Jays special is premiering is truly the gold standard of funny

The 6’3” happy birthday bit was so quick and funny. Damn, that’s what it’s about right there

Rick is a comedy genius 1:17:53 Big Jay is one of the funniest comics that people dont know about

Ik it’s a press run but i love seeing big jay interact with other comedians

Episode 199, can't believe we're going into 200 next week! Keep up the good work Rick and another great episode!

its BIG JAY WEEK! LETS GO!

I love how different Rick's TYSO spin on interviews are

The blanket falling and the casual “blanket statement” he throws in. Gets me every time.

Love when Rick meets new people. The interviews are so much better

I like seeing these worlds collide. Would love to see you get Shane Gillis on TYSO !!

Came home from driving an 18 wheeler hauling fuel while listening to Jay on Rogan, immediately started watching Jay. Thanks for keeping us entertained, boys.

Man, I'm really excited for this. I just checked out Jay's special....and boy is it special. Both these guys are up my alley. F.y.i.

Love to see an upload by the funniest dude in the pod biz. Thanks Rick

Rick I need you on YMH badly

The special was insane, definitely one to watch with the family

I was in the exact mood for this conversation. Just 2 bros sharing their relate-able experiences with human psychology

Rick, Rick? Rick. Your booking timing is impeccable! Way to go. Can't wait to watch you and Jay.

1:04:33 Rick actually hit the I mustache you a question and that made me spit out my drink laughing for some reason lmao. Such a subtle unexpected one mid convo

Every episode ends up being a therapy session for Rick.

I'm surprised by how much I loved this this episode considering I knew nothing about Jay beforehand. There wasn't a single moment during this conversation where I wasn't intrigued. The stories on experiences with varying degrees of self awareness were so relatable and entertaining. This is one of my favorite episodes, I'm now a fan of Jay's, and I'd love to see him on the pod again in the future. Also, Jay's mention of Brian Regan reminded me of how great I think Brian would be on the pod. Get him on!

I NEVER thought i would see my favorite 2 different worlds would COLLLIDE!!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!

god damn Rick is good - this is a really great ep

Thanks Rick!

Didn't see this one coming. Hell yeah Rick. Thanks for having the homie on.

looking forward to this classic

Rick wants to go to NY more and I want Rick to go to NY more.

Was a colab I didnt see coming.. love the dynamic -- Rick is an incredible interviewer, really brings out the best and good in people - If I was in entertainment, I feel my career would be in safe hands with Mr. Glassman - Kudos sir

2nd pod in a row I couldn’t make it thru. Nothing but industry talk with Brent and now serious questions with one of the best improvisers? Where the laughs at?!

Rick hittin Jay with the "you might be a redneck" out of no where had me dyin 😅

One of the best side effects of big Jay's new special is he's doing the podcast circuit, so we get more BIG JAY!

Rick the “I must-ache u something“ joke flew over his head! And yes that jokes arms are tired😂😂

Guys this is so funny. Two of my favorites

Ive never even come close to dunking ever in my life, but I would bet money hitting a home run when you NEED to to win is the greatest feeling in sports

14:45! IM CRYINGGGG 😂😂😂

NEVER thought id see big jay on here..yall are SO different

WAIT IM NOT READY! I still gotta finish your Honeydew episode!

Great guest!! Another great one Tricky Ricky!!

Let's go people we need Rick to hit 200k. 🎉

stoked for this one!

Glassman and Segura need to enter a 2 on 2 tourney!!!!

How does Rick not have millions of subscribers. This guy is gold

I’m so happy Rick had Big Jay on! Hilarious and awesome to see two comics I love meet and get familiar

Special was solid. Jay is very comfortable on stage and great with the crowd.

Saw Big J at Comedy works in Denver circa 2019; great show! Rick any plans to do a set in Denver?

i love how rick takes every single opportunity to plug i am phenominal

A beautiful crossover! Love them both.

I sometimes forget just how fucking great the production of this stupid (amazing) show is 😂 “gulp gulp gulp”

Love that this came out at the same time as his special and watching everyone go from his special to this episode. Love you both!

It's funny that I'm at the part where Jay mentions Kill Tony, and was just thinking how it would be cool to see Rick on KillTony, if he makes it to Austin sometime 😎

shout out to jason right away! hes the man!

If you're not subscribed then subscribe right now and let's our guy Rick hard

This was seriously an epic conversation. Very deep stuff! Amazing how much I have in common with Jay - 45 years old, big guy with a goatee, the way we won't confront people if we think it will upset them (that whole convo he was describing me and sorry for my selfish behavior in people pleasing lol), and being the guy known as the funny guy in school growing up. Great stuff guys! Jay's special was awesome too :)

I saw jay at the Tampa improv last year, and by far, that was my favorite show I’ve seen to this day. I cannot WAIT to see another one!

Big Jay legit one of the best vibe coolest dudes ever

Rick, im a long time fan and im not trying to be a dick but why would you have an almost fully serious podcast when you have on of the most naturally funny guys on the planet as a guest?

The edit to Bobby Kelly on the bonfire has me in tears 😂

Much love for Big Jay! Great episode

Glassman boppers 🥇this man is too great

It has been so refreshing to see Jay go on this media tour. I was not that familiar with him and he's been appearing on podcasts that I do keep up with (TYSO being one, obviously). I had negative pre-conceived notions about him before really listening to him in long form. Now I'm a fan. I watched Dog Belly and fucking loved it. Looking forward to following his career going forward.

Big Jay's special was really cool. I like how he's super laid back and on the more explicit side. 'Tis a delightful watch

The amount of times Rick has said "I hate when I repeat..." is a bit in and of itself

Who wants to see me and Rick go one on one??!

Nice my boy Glassman made the podcast circuit list comics now going on pod to promote

Couldn’t possible have clicked any faster!

Big J and Skanks fan. I am now a Rick fan also.

Never thought I’d see these two together. 👍🏼👍🏼😂

Def need a pt 2 of this - feels like you guys barely scratched the surface

1:17:53 This episode's Blanketed Statement was smooth af I love it

Jay still owes Gillis $1000

What an incredible conversation

YT algorithm sent me here… awesome show. Subscribed. 👍

4:53 ricks smile when big j asked if he was good at basketball is so fucking funny Ps this combo works a lot better than I would've assumed!! Love every pod arms are tired yada yada

Two of my favorite people

RICK HAS TO GO ON LOS

Great comic, special, guest. Big jay is just amazing

Rick's great as a main dish or as a garnish...

Jays palms must be freezing

I feel like the headshot never gets the love it deserves.

For the alg. Glad yt finally let it through

Loved it!!!

The mustache bit hahaha Rick literally can't help himself haha

34:09 best helix commercial I've ever heard

proud of rick for ignoring the floor bag

Really great insight to big j as a person Big j is great .

Love Big J and Mr Glassman
