Mark explains how he feels guilt when buying things cause he believes he doesn't deserve them. I just want a smoothie!!!! Queef. www.marknormandcomedy.com
Mark needs a genuine hug. Dude, you bust your butt to make people laugh so enjoy the money you received. And date women who pick up the tab. Love ya Mark.
@@definitelyhuman661 Yes, I am one of them. I will say that there are men that get insulted if a woman pays for anything and that's speaking from personal experience.
It actually only takes guts to be so open AND respect yourself at the same time. Being a sad sack is something a lottttt of weak people do and it's a weak thing. I love Mark Normand and this was an interview of sorts where he just gives you insight and it's good - but the podcast has gotten worse and worse because they talk constantly about how much they hate themselves.
@@Paul-dw2cl Subject: Mark Normand. Premise: (their) podcast. Put 2 and 2 together fella and use google. Just out of principle I'm typing more than it would take to just answer directly. Also I should mention here that they've been getting much better again, mostly because Joe found his groove and is much happier with himself which helps keep the self-loathing blabbering to a minimum.
Mark said his parents STILL don't fully recognize him as a professional who has a real job, he's got a bigger audience than most TV networks from 40 years ago, and he's considered the best one liner out there. No wonder he still has confidence problems We love you brother
Thrift stores solve the guilt problem, wearing other peoples garbage means youre warm but didnt pay much for it, and let a kid in Malaysia go home from work early
Oh man, I was wondering what this dudes deal was after hearing some of his hints in his routines. Like no eye contact or anxiety or guilt stuff. This is nuts, thanks for opening up this way Mark youre a champ
exact same him first on a Rogan multi guest pdocast and tought this guy is hyper and i dont like it....i relate so much to Mark on so many levels it is scary even down to the eye contact and guilt from eating a freaking Big Mac and opting for a granola bar.
I can't believe I'm not the only one who feels like Mark. I slept on an air matress that would deflate thorugh the night for 2 years. I went to McDonalds once a year, and only on pay day. I could afford new bed sheets, but I still sleep on the ones I pissed on a hundred times because I was drunk. It's deep, deep guilt and shame. No matter how much money you make you can never beat it.
man i made the mistake of telling co workers i was gonna buy a guitar. like 3 years went by and theyd ask me, "you buy that guitar? no? why not!?" well if i told you the real answer and said i feel like i dont deserve it then youd all look at me weird!
@@emanuelmota7217 usually childhood trauma my friend. Even if you think you had a good one. No idea where mine is - I feel guilty of any success like it’s undeserving and have a hard time asking for favors or help. And man I wish my piss sheets came from boozing instead of whatever the fuck made my sheets look like a coffee filter at age 9 - damn that Normand joke about the traits of a serial killer is so good. Might as well plug their sponsor - betterhelp.
Wow. The more I hear you speaking so openly about your "problems" and difficulties the more I appreciate you. So refreshing to see someone so comfortable with sharing like this. And of course you're funny as hell. Can't get enough. COMEDY!! A huge fan from Israel. And a I'm A Jew!!
Mark is the guy people need to listen to and observe every time they make decisions as a parent. People do not realize how much their seemingly insignificant decisions can impact their kids. He’s damaged psychologically and it’s because of negligent parents who *thought* they were doing a good job.

I was thinking along the same lines. If he was in a relationship with a woman to where they started sharing the management of finances, would he be OK with her spending his money on things like furniture and a warm coat. Still his money, but through her decision and not his. By this I am not calling girlfriends and wives “helper monkeys“, but I’m not not calling them that.
This was beautiful, man. I like hearing people open up like this. It takes strength, honestly. I resonate with a lot of this - the inability to realize one's own good life and just feeling trapped in that insecurity. Best to you!
Thanks mark for sharing this with us really helps other guys like myself understand it's okay to talk about stuff like this and that we should address stuff in our past to help work through current issues we have day to day thanks and thanks for being funny in a time when it's very much needed. 😂👍
OMG Mark I'm 34 and been a fan ... I've never heard anything so relatable with the buying angst. Not that I have shit for money now, but coats, burgers, smoothies ... I so understand.
When I had a lazy job, I was HAPPY! If I have extra money, I HELP ppl! When I’m low on money, my friends help me! 😀 Helping ppl is the best cure for guilt.
I enjoyed the shit out of this video. Thanks for sharing Mark. I think everybody relates to this at some level, so it feels good to hear it externalized by someone else.
Guys i was raised by a single mother from india and went through a pretty similar childhood....and now i understand why i am not going to a mc Donald's and buying a drink for myself... even though I'm doing preety good for myself and can definitely afford it. Thanks mark for helping me understand myself..you are thr the therapist i needed i guess😅
I relate to all of it. And I see my therapist weekly as well. Amazing Normand has the ability to talk about it, let alone in such comedic terms. Fuckin A plus.
1) I don't understand how Amy follows Mark, he's a killer. 2) Mark is starting to sell out theaters now, and I couldn't be happier. Pure comedy, born to do it, doesn't know how to do anything else. love him
Mark really reminds me of George Carlin. Hilarious, yes, but also a deep thinker with a very keen take on the world around him. Keep up the great work Mark, thanks for the laughs and for making me think of your commentary even when the "show" is over!
eh, not if its just a small thing like a candybar or something under 5 bucks from a multi billion dollar corporation who underpays their employees. It's more of a little "fuck you" kinda thing.
Exactly. I have an Uncle that is raising his kids in a perfect environment full of encouragement and love. I dread having to talk to them when they are adults.
Mark is among the best and he’d prolly never know it. What he says about his mom makes me wonder if she makes facial expressions it would tell a whole lot.
Literally the first ever episode of Opie and Anthony I've ever watched/listened to, even after having heard people reference it for years. Pretty deep. Much love to you, Mark. You'll find peace one day.
@@TonyMacroni633 This was also like 1-2 years after he bought a $7M condo in Trump Towers. He was phoning it in making easy money and he ruined it.The guy is a boob.
Oh my gosh- I feel like I’m going through this with you guys! I’m enjoying it and laughing along, but also keep having flashbacks!!!! Wow, just wow! And thank you, I will also need a therapist!
Man I relate to Mark's mental/buying issues so much, when you grow up poor as fuck you either think this way or you splurge whenever you have some money, there's really no middle ground...
