"LOS ESPOOKYS" UM, I SAY IT'S A SHOW ABOUT A GROUP OF FRIENDS WHO HAVE
A BUSINESS WHERE THEY STAGE DIFFERENT TYPES OF STUNTS TO PEOPLE WHO NEED IT

JULIO TORRES IS THIS THE FIRST TIME YOU WORKED WITH FRED
UM, ON A SHOW LIKE THIS, YES. I HAD MET FRED IN 2016
"PORTLANDIA" WAS LOOKING FOR A A WRITER, AND I WAS ASKED IF I WANTED TO SUBMIT, AND I DIDN'T
HAVE ANY SCRIPTS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. I HAD NEVER WRITTEN A SCRIPT,
BUT I HAD A ZINE, AND SO, I SUBMITTED MY ZINE. AND I THINK WHEN THE PRODUCER
WAS GOING THROUGH, YOU KNOW, ALL THESE SCRIPTS AND SAW THE COVER OF MY ZINE, WAS LIKE,
"WHAT IS THIS? AND THEN STARTED READING IT, AND THEY LIKED IT, AND SHARED
IT WITH FRED AND CARRIE. IT'S CALLED "THE TRUTH ABOUT PANGEA."
Jimmy: THIS IS YOUR ZINE. YEAH. Jimmy: YEAH
[ LAUGHTER ] THIS GOT YOU HIRED IT DIDN'T -- IT DID NOT GET
ME HIRED Jimmy: THERE YOU GO [ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
HOWEVER, IT GOT THE -- THAT'S HOW I MET FRED. FRED WAS LIKE, "THIS IS REALLY
FUNNY. AND THEN WE STAYED IN TOUCH, AND MADE LITTLE VIDEOS AND
THINGS TOGETHER. Jimmy: WOW. AND WHEN HE GOT THE IDEA
TO -- FOR WHAT BECAME "LOS ESPOOKYS," HE ASKED JULIO AND I IF WE WANTED TO HELP TO
DEVELOP IT Jimmy: THIS WASN'T THE FIRST SHOW THAT YOU'VE SUBMITTED FOR
IT AND DIDN'T GET THE JOB. CORRECT Jimmy: ANOTHER SHOW WAS "THE
TONIGHT SHOW." YEAH. [ AUDIENCE OOHS
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ] NO, IT'S OKAY. IT'S OKAY.
I UNDERSTAND -- IN JANUARY OF 2015, I SUBMITTED TO BE A WRITER HERE.
AND I DID NOT GET THE JOB. BUT BECAUSE I'M HERE, AND YOU DON'T OFTEN GET THE OPPORTUNITY
TO FIND OUT WHEN YOU DON'T GET A JOB WHY YOU DIDN'T GET THE JOB, I JUST WANTED TO ASK SORT
OF WHAT IT WAS ABOUT SOME OF THE MATERIAL [ LAUGHTER ]
Jimmy: STOP, STOP, STOP I BROUGHT -- I BROUGHT PART OF THE THINGS THAT I SUBMITTED
[ LAUGHTER ] [ AUDIENCE OHS ] Jimmy: SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T
GET TO ME, YOU KNOW? SOMETIMES IT GOES THROUGH TO PEOPLE
WELL, I JUST WANT TO USE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE SORT OF WHAT I DID WRONG, AND HOW I COULD DO
BETTER SO, THESE WERE SOME OF THE DESK BITS THAT WERE IN MY PACKET.
Jimmy: OKAY ONE IS CALLED "NON-SLIP." "IN THIS BIT, AN AUDIENCE
MEMBER TESTS HOW EFFECTIVE A A PAIR OF SHOES MARKETED AS NON-SLIP ARE
THEY MUST POWER WALK THROUGH AN OBSTACLE COURSE ON AN OILY AND/OR WET FLOOR
IF THEY SLIP AND FALL, WE KNOW THE SHOES ARE NOT EFFECTIVE. A VIDEO RECORDING OF THE
QUALITY CONTROL TEST MAY BE SENT TO THE SHOE'S MANUFACTURER."
[ LAUGHTER ] Jimmy: I CAN'T BELIEVE -- I CAN'T BELIEVE WE PASSED ON
THIS OKAY, YEAH. AND THEN YOU -- YOU PASSED ON
THIS TOO IT'S CALLED "YOU'RE HIRED. "IN THIS BIT, VIEWERS LIST
JIMMY AS A REFERENCE ON A JOB APPLICATION. [ LAUGHTER ]
"IF JIMMY GETS A CALL FROM A A COMPANY INQUIRING ABOUT A JOB APPLICANT, HE MUST TRY AND MAKE
THE APPLICANT SEEM LIKE A GOOD FIT FOR THE JOB. THE CALLS ARE RECORDED AND
PLAYED ON THE SHOW." [ LAUGHTER ] JIMMY, THIS IS ALL -
Jimmy: SO, I JUST HAVE A CAMERA ON ME AT ALL TIMES IN CASE -
AT ALL TIMES. Jimmy: -- SOMEONE CALLS ME FOR A REFERENCE?
CORRECT Jimmy: OKAY OKAY.
AND THEN THERE WAS ONE CALLED "MIC CHECK." Jimmy: "MIC CHECK."

AUDIENCE NAMED MIKE HAS TO STAND UP FOR THE REST OF THE SHOW."
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE * Jimmy: ACTUALLY, YOU WANT TO

APPRECIATE IT, EVERYBODY I WAS TALKING TO MY BUDDY THE OTHER DAY, AND I ASKED HIM HOW
HE SPENDS HIS FREE TIME. HE TOLD ME EVERY DAY HE LIKES TO GO TO THE PARK AND PEOPLE
WATCH. WHY IS THAT OKAY [ LIGHT LAUGHTER ]
PEOPLE WATCH JUST BECAUSE WE FLIP THE WORDS AROUND IT'S NOT CREEPY ANYMORE
[ LAUGHTER ] YOU KNOW BECAUSE IT'D BE MUCH DIFFERENT
IF HE WAS LIKE, "YEAH, EVERY DAY I GO TO THE PARK AND WATCH PEOPLE."
[ LAUGHTER ] BUT WE JUST FLIP THE WORDS AND NOW IT'S LIKE THIS CULTURED
PAST TIME. HE'S LIKE, "YEAH, GO TO THE PARK AND PEOPLE WATCH.
SOMETIMES I PEOPLE FOLLOW. [ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE "AND YOU KNOW IF I REALLY LIKE
THEM, I'LL PEOPLE TOUCH. [ LAUGHTER ] A CULTURED GUY
I'M FROM THE SOUTH ORIGINALLY. WE ALL KNOW THE SOUTH CAN BE A A LITTLE BIT BACKWARDS, BEHIND
THE TIMES. FOR INSTANCE, DID YOU KNOW THEY JUST LEGALIZED DOING YOGA IN
SCHOOLS IN ALABAMA [ LIGHT LAUGHTER ] I'M SORRY, DID YOU KNOW IT WAS
ILLEGAL TO DO YOGA IN SCHOOLS IN ALABAMA [ LAUGHTER ]
IT WAS ILLEGAL FOR 30 YEARS. AND THEY JUST LEGALIZED IT LAST YEAR
BUT, IF YOU'RE DOING IT, YOU CAN'T USE THE CLASSIC YOGA TERMINOLOGY, NONE OF THE
SANSKRIT WORDS, BECAUSE THEY CONSIDER IT EASTERN RELIGION SO, YOU CAN DO THE POSES, BUT
YOU CAN'T SAY THE WORDS. WHICH IS INSANE. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW YOU DO
THAT I FEEL LIKE YOGA IN ALABAMA IS JUST LIKE, "ALL RIGHT, WE'RE
GOING TO DO A 'DUKES OF HAZZARD' INTO A JIMMY BUFFETT. [ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
"AND WE'RE GOING TO FINISH OUT BRINGING HANDS TO HEART CENTER, ALTOGETHER NOW, ROLL TIDE.
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE I'M FROM ATLANTA MYSELF BUT I ALWAYS WANTED TO LIVE HERE IN
NEW YORK EVER SINCE I WAS A KID. CAUSE WHEN I WAS A KID, I WOULD
SPEND THE SUMMERS IN SAVANNAH, GEORGIA, WITH MY GRANDMA AND WE WOULD JUST WATCH
EPISODES OF "SEX AND THE CITY" BACK TO BACK TO BACK [ LAUGHTER ]
YEAH, AND I WOULD FANTASIZE ABOUT MOVING TO NEW YORK AND BEING A LITTLE SLUT.
[ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE THAT'S RIGHT YEAH
AND MY GRANDMA WAS LIKE, "OH, YOU CAN DO IT, BABY. YEAH
YOU GET UP THERE YOU'RE GRANDMA'S CARRY." [ LAUGHTER ]
THAT'S HOW MY GRANDMA IS MY GRANDMA'S LIKE THIS FUN, VIVACIOUS SOUTHERN WOMAN
SHE SAYS WILD STUFF. I REMEMBER ONCE I WAS TALKING TO MY GRANDMA.
AND I WAS LIKE, "GRANDMA, WHAT WAS IT LIKE BEING A YOUNG LADY GROWING UP IN GEORGIA?
AND MY GRANDMA'S RESPONSE WORD FOR WORD, SHE GOES, "MICHAEL, WHEN I WAS 18, ALL THE BOYS
CAME BACK FROM WORLD WAR II, AND WE HAD A GOOD TIME." [ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
YEAH YEAH IT WAS A VERY SPECIFIC ANSWER
TO A VERY BROAD QUESTION [ LAUGHTER ] IT'S INTERESTING BECAUSE SHE'S
A VERY FUN LADY. SHE GAVE BIRTH TO MY MOM MY MOM IS MUCH MORE TYPE A AND
NEUROTIC AND I WORRIED HER A LOT WHEN I WAS KID CAUSE I HAVE SEVERE NUT
ALLERGIES. AND WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, SHE WAS SO WORRIED I WAS GOING TO
EAT SOMETHING WITH NUTS IN IT, SHE WENT OVER THE TOP. IT WAS EMBARRASSING.
I REMEMBER SHE MADE THIS BIG POSTER THAT WAS LIKE, "WARNING, MICHAEL ROWLAND IS ALLERGIC TO
NUTS." AND SHE TOOK THAT POSTER AND SHE HUNG IT ON THE WALL IN MY
MIDDLE SCHOOL NURSE'S OFFICE SO, KIDS WOULD COME BACK FROM THE NURSE'S OFFICE AND BE LIKE,
"YO, I SAW YOUR POSTER." [ LAUGHTER ] KIDS ALWAYS SAW THE SAME THING
THEY'D BE LIKE, "MIKE, YOU ALLERGIC TO NUTS YOU ALLERGIC TO DEEZ NUTS?
[ LAUGHTER ] EVERY TIME AND I WASN'T LIKE A CLEVER KID,
SO I'D JUST BE LIKE, "YEAH, I'M ALLERGIC TO DOZE." [ LAUGHTER ]
I WAS UNDERSIZED WHEN I WAS KID. LIKE, WHEN I STARTED HIGH
SCHOOL, I WAS 4'11." IT'S TRUE. I WAS 14 YEARS OLD AND I WAS
4'11." AND MY MOM, YOU KNOW HOW SHE IS, SHE WAS LIKE, "WE'VE GOT TO
GO TO A DOCTOR, RIGHT NOW. SO I REMEMBER, SHE TOOK ME TO SEE THIS SPECIALIST CALLED AN
ENDOCRINOLOGIST. AND THIS ENDOCRINOLOGIST EXAMINED MY LITTLE 4'11"
SKELETON AND HE CAME TO ME AND HE WAS LIKE, "YES, YOU HAVE THE BONES
OF A PERSON TWO YEARS YOUNGER THAN YOU." AND I REMEMBER I WAS JUST LIKE,
"YO, ARE THEY MY BONES?" [ LAUGHTER ] "WHO HAS MY BONES RIGHT NOW?
HE NEVER EXPLAINED IT TO ME. SO, I JUST LIKE TO IMAGINE THAT I WAS AN EXPERIMENT IN THE SAME
LAB THAT MADE WOLVERINE AND CHANGED HIS SKELETON OUT [ LAUGHTER ]
CAUSE YOU KNOW WOLVERINE, THE X-MEN, THEY CHANGED OUT HIS SKELETON IN THAT LAB
THAT'S THE SKELETON CHANGING LAB. AND THAT LAB IS FULL OF
SCIENTISTS AND THOSE SCIENTISTS ARE GOING TO EXPERIMENT AND THEY'RE NOT
ALL GOING TO BE WINNERS, YOU KNOW [ LAUGHTER ]
SO, I LIKE TO IMAGINE ONE SCIENTIST WAS LIKE, "YES, THIS IS WOLVERINE
WE GAVE HIM UNBREAKABLE BONES OF ADAMANTIUM. AND THIS IS MIKE
WE GAVE HIM THE BONES OF A A SLIGHTLY YOUNGER BOY." [ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
MY BODY DID EVENTUALLY GROW AND I MOVED HERE TO NEW YORK CITY WHERE I LIVE NOW
BUT I WENT BACK TO GEORGIA RECENTLY TO VISIT MY GRANDMA AND THAT WAS GREAT
SHE GOT A NEW FLAT SCREEN TV AT THE HOUSE, WHICH IS NICE SHE LOST THE REMOTE THOUGH
WHICH, HAVE YOU EVER TRIED TO TURN ON A NEW FLAT SCREEN TV WITHOUT THE REMOTE
YOU WILL NEVER FEEL DUMBER IN YOUR WHOLE LIFE. [ LAUGHTER ]
ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS WATCH TV BUT YOU'RE JUST STUCK THERE LIKE -
[ LAUGHTER ] [ LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
I MEAN, IT'S SO HARD YOU MIGHT
AS WELL GO TO THE PARK AND WATCH PEOPLE YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN
