I love David Spade. He does great stand up. He's so sweet and never turns down a selfie with you.
"I remember someone telling me we're supposed to try and do well." Hilarious! :D
"Hey Spade I thought you were going to start working out?" This was so enjoyable. I love both these guys.
I loved that line in Grown Ups.

We absolutely NEED another season of Comedians in Cars! Please Jerry please.
Comedians in Cars Getting Covid
Jerry you need to get gabriel iglesias, bill burr and bert kreischer in your next season
@@chadbest5411 Every single episode is fabulous. In my opinion, Jerry’s greatest accomplishment ever!!
He could easily do at least one more season. So many great comedians who haven't been on yet.
@@tengoku44 Bill Burr already did one, but Iglesias and Kreischer would be great.
Spade was totally nervous. As soon as Spade said "I have some questions,"Jerry turned it around by saying, "how you doing" and turned into a great conversation
Seinfeld has a few seasons with comedians in cars and he's an master at reading the room. He knows how to get people on the wavelength he wants while making them comfortable. He's a huge fan of comedians and the art of stand up. I say this as a person who's not a real fan of his stand up but respects him as an artist.
That was a very reasonable assement from someone who's not a fan.
@@LogicProphet bababooey!

Spade was totally nervous. As soon as Spade said "I have some questions,"Jerry turned it around by saying, "how you doing" and turned into a great conversation
David had the best line: "I think there's an eclipse going on at your house." hahaha. And I like how Jerry and David both don't feel the need to be funny all the time. Jerry seems like a warm soul, considerate and kind. He seems very happy with his life.
And he loves other people. Especially other comics. He's not faking it; he's clearly enjoying every minute of it.
Probably the most authentic interview of either I've seen. Both great guys and damn funny
it's beautiful how you can clearly see life crawling back in david's expression. jerry really connected to him in that special place where comedians feel full.
This feels like two guys that are genuinely comfortable in each other’s company. Really good interview.
I felt like Spade def wasn’t super comfortable
😸👍
@@switchunboxing Initially for sure but I feel like Jerry put him at ease eventually
Wow, Jerry's memory for jokes is incredible! How did he know that parakeet joke was first performed in '79? Incredible. In credible.
O probably because he put in recently in his book 📖
@@gaberoyalll Fun read?
Comedy and his writing is his life's blood.
Because any year answered quickly would fool you
Because he doesn't abuse substances.
A compliment from Jerry Seinfeld has got to be the best thing, because he doesn't seem to do false compliments.
So true, love that about him. Very genuine.
So true.
@Stephen Conley Can you please clarify? Not sure if I have the backround information on that?
@Stephen Conley Yeah we see you pasting that same comment anywhere you can jack it in. We see you, troll. It's not gonna catch on.
Now be gone.
People can hate Jerry's stand-up or even his show, but I think they should respect this man for being worth damn-near a billion dollars but he's still in love w/ stand-up and comedy in general. Most comedians and even musicians get lazy once they start making big money.
Agree 100%. I also think it's great how he's able to articulate why he still loves it and the nuances of how he works.
Agreed on all points. Anyone who hates Jerry doesn’t understand the depth of Jerry’s wisdom and genius. Doing what he does is incredibly challenging. He’s been around long enough to make it look easy.
He’s not that funny but he doesn’t suck, he’s consistent and he knows it, that’s what makes him great.
He's said it a bunch, and you can tell its true, that he just doesn't really have interest in anything else. Comedy is his one true love. He doesn't need to do it for the money anymore but he needs to do it because it's all he's ever wanted to do.
I've worked in construction for 35 years, never easy, every day a grind... still think standing on a stage, by yourself with a room full of strangers has to be 100 times tougher... and these are still two of the best in their business
I am an attorney and being in front of a court is not easy but nothing as you say being in front of a hundred or even less people
Refreshingly humble comments to read. Neither of those sound remotely easy at all!
If you don't know how to act, you can't be honest about yourself. This is a tough leason, that all comedians have to adhere to.
David is great. Just imagine into which comedic stratospheres he would have been shot if he had a chance to continue to work with Farley. That duo was golden and just getting started.
If they continued that, I think it would’ve gotten worn out quickly. The amount they did together was just right.
@@chadinmich1 great duos in history of comedy never wore out quickly in fact they always lasted the test of time. There are tons of comedy acts that literally last their entire career just fine. It’s not just right when one part of the act dies prematurely.
@@kathywright5091 with these two I stand by my original comment. Tommy boy was great black sheep didn’t do that well anything they kept doing would’ve just been a rehash of the same material.
Whenever we've had these comedians die so young and they've had comedian friends that were so close I always wonder if they were doing drugs with them. Hard to imagine being so close friends and not doing that together, Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi.
And Lorne had been better to him.
And just like that, Spade will forever question his collar/t-shirt decisions just a little more than he had in the past.
what is the deal with color/t shirt combos? lol
I really like both these guys tremendously. And it also goes to show you that it matters WHO is criticizing David's whole "unbuttoned shirt" look. I actually asked Spade that exact Q during a "Q & A" segment at the end of his Mirage performance (with Ray Romano). Let's just say I didn't get the same agreement that Jerry got when HE pointed it out here.
Thanks guys for putting this out for public consumption. It really felt like just two guys catching up minus the huge careers and fame and all that shit. Us fans of comics/actors love this stuff.
Yes! Indeed. I like your way of putting it. Off to delete my comment (not really.. or maybe)...
I love how polite Jerry Seinfeld is. He is so proper, and considerate with his language. You don't hear a bunch of profanity from him.❤ He's just an awesome person.😊
Love Jerry ❤❤
He’s fucking great…😉😂🤣😂
@@vrvaughnaaand there’s the “stop swearing, it sounds like hell!” joke 🙄
When you are genuinely funny, you need no expletives.
That’s his image he wants. He’s trying to be the Richie Cunningham of comedy. David Letterman did that also, except he was ultra-cynical.
“I think you asked me why I was cool, and instead I explained why I’m not, lol.”
In my opinion, this is why David Spade is so cool. Because he’s a real person.
I love them both! This is great and it feels like Spade is in comedy therapy with Dr. Seinfeld
I love Spade and it's so great to see Jerry likes him.
Spade with the impressions! Carson, Rock and Leno 😄👍
Lights Out was a great show! Perfect little format. Didn't miss a one of them.
It really wash. Finally a refreshing take on Late Night TV.
I got to see two episodes live last July. The studio is so tiny! We were feet away from the stage.
@@Kryptospotted You're really lucky. I had been perusing their website for tickets back in January as the COVID thing was breaking out. Just about the time I saw open seats, production shut down. Who were the guests for the show you went to?
@@worldmikel Anna Faris, Jeff Garlin, and Guy Branum on one show. Jeff Ross was on the other.
" I got some beeps " ... I like how Spade snuck that in there
That went over my head. What did it mean?
@@dixonpinfold2582 he was doing a comedy show to an audience of cars , at a drive-in theater ( * because of Covid ) , and he got Beeps, as in approval that his jokes were funny
@@johnp1277 Thks. Turns out I was inattentive. Oops.
“You can watch for two minutes and bail.” That was genuinely funny and Jerry knew it.
Thing is, there was probably some truth to that. ie: People you know come to your show because they said they will then leave shortly after arriving.
There needs to be “comedians on zoom having coffee”
NO
Um no. Sooner do comedians in masks going to Target.
“comedians on zoom making coffee”
@Tony Capela guarantee 13 episodes.
YESSSS!
I agree with Seinfeld, I love watching Spade cause he does jokes
Every comedian does jokes.
@@DIYTFY Not true. Many talk about their lives, or stuff they're bugged about, or what it's like dating or other personal stuff they extract the humor from. Spade does jokes and makes fun of himself.
Spade is funny all day every day . It's his personality even the little stuff. All funny in my opinion! Such a good dude !
Spade got me through the first 2-3 months of lockdown.
@@DIYTFY Not every comedian does jokes that are actually funny though.
Two of the best chatters.
David is such a naturally funny chill dude and Jerry is great because he’s still a fan of comedians.
Comedians In Offices Getting Silly
The stupidity of my channel name is nothing compared to the stupidity you will feel if you check out my stupid comedy videos.
I like jerry
@@StupiderWithAB stfu self promoting dumbass
Jerry never had David on his coffee and cars show? A shame.
Comedians On Zoom Better Than Jerry Seinfeld.
David Spade's shows, especially the Comedy Central one, are so underrated. He's so much funnier than he gets credit for. Great interview.
That was pleasant AF
David Spade deserves his own Netflix stand-up special
How has this not happened yet?
@@riledmouse4677 he has a stand up special, actually multiple I think
you just don't know about them because he isn't funny.
@@lotsofsports2251 you just gave me half a heart attack because you have the same name as my ex-husband from 15 years ago. My first thought was, “How surreal is this?”
@@riledmouse4677 I married a Fritz
Spade has definitely grown on me in the past few years
The stupidity of my channel name is nothing compared to the stupidity you will feel if you check out my stupid comedy videos.
I like David
Yeah same here.
Who doesn't like David... maybe you had a bad fall as kid and now things to you are numb.
@@MurraySheer well thank god the numbness has wore off
I'm reading the book , " Is this Anything ". I love it. I always loved Jerry Seinfeld, but reading the book makes me appreciate him even more.
Check out the audiobook. It's the first audiobook I've ever purchased. I started off with the ebook, and enjoyed it enough and thought..."wouldn't it be cool if Jerry Seinfeld narrates the audiobook?" He does! It is!
@@JonReynoldsESQ thanks never would of thought of that myself! Instead of book I’m ordering my first Audible.
I read David’s book few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed it also but if he’s done his own audio book version, that’s next purchase.
I'm so hyped about the new Netflix show! I miss seeing Dave every week or so. I need my David Spade fix😍
Feels like a therapy session for Spade. Seinfeld as the unintentional therapist.
very well said
it's mutual...conversation, from center, is healing, mysterious, miraculous, delightful play...conversationally speaking i'm sneaking on out of here..

Oh it was intentional. Seems like a control freak.
Jerry is his older brother by 10 years :) he's probably always looked out for him
27:57 "I think there's an eclipse going on at your house."
"It's called a cloud"
"ok sorry" lmao!
Course, 10 minutes earlier, you couldn't see half his head...
David Spade in Tommy Boy was funny as hell. Two great comedians Jerry and David talking is so cool.Chris Farley miss him too RIP.
David finessing his way around jerry very fun to watch
I could listen to these two talk for hours it's like somehow soothing and calming. Looks like Jerry's living in a nice beautiful home and David's rooming shared accomodations.
This is probably my favorite Seinfeld interview ever.
laughing hard!!!
Hey Spade I thought you were going to start working out ‘ 🏋️ hahaha 🤣 he’s great as he is
I’m from San Diego we used to have the best ppl work here. Now that they are big it’s all about L. A. or N.Y.
I was going to comment the exact same thing - @Spade, incredible intvw man!
Thats likely because Seinfeld respects Spade for being his own comic and not (seeming) to give a shit. That makes Spade worth talking to, which softens the real Jerry Seinfeld.
They should bring back Spade's last show. I couldn't wait to watch each episode. He was so relaxed in that format.
The way that jerry is so passionate about comedy makes it so enjoyable to hear him talk about it
And yet his stand-up is only average. He's actually at his best bantering with someone else, whether it's comedians in cars, or sitting in the booth with George
@@owenrees7544 true but his thing is consistency but he relies on material and Dave Chappell was the one to unintentionally blast Jerry by saying “I never go to my material, I don’t have any”
I love the self awareness that Jerry has brought to comedy.
Honestly, comedians give me LIFE
He doesn’t have the wife to tighten up his look.. Seinfeld is straight up proper spit and polished!🤣😅❤️❤️
Some of us prefer the less polished look.
@@heatheroliver3408 absolutely!
disheveled
Great conversation from David and Jerry. Thank you. Take care, peace, and love to everyone.
Finally, comedians talking about comedy.
Meanwhile Larry David actually makes great comedy.
@@sup9542 That is ones opinion.
i got the "V" bby
I always liked David Spade and NOW I know why. This is a cool conversation.
This was such a pleasure to watch... much more respect for David Spade now knowing some of his personal upbringing. Jerry Seinfeld is gold 💪🏼
I love David Spade's laugh: it's so distinctive and endearing.
This was a fun interview - their take on how they do their work.
you can see jerrys emmys in the background and then when they show david spade you can see his lava lamps lol
Gee, ya think maybe they just "happened" to be in camera ?
@@dennisp3314 Absolutely placed there for this. Why else would they be blocking the television.
That's hysterical. Lol.
Two of my favorite Comedians of all time Jerry Seinfeld and David Spade sitting around shooting the breeze
it doesn't get any cooler than this. Thank you Jerry and David for letting us in on the conversation.
Love you guys.
" I would maybe go for a t-shirt with that v-neck" LMFAO
Asserting his dominance from the beginning. Kind of annoying
"Now we both try to get off for ten minutes" Phrasing!
Never heard jerry laugh to a line like that. Spade is special.
Personally, I've always found it more productive to listen to successful people talk about their craft as opposed to just consuming the craft itself... It inspires me to do more with my life.
Strongly agree. I'm more about "How did you get there?" than "Look what I've got more that I've arrived". Spot on my internet friend.
It's good to be reminded how much hard work actually goes into being successful.
Seinfeld has enormous respect for other comedians. and I mean all of them. He has a lot of respect for the craft and the involvment it takes. He thinks of them as co-workers. I wish he would write a book about stand-up, the craft, the history, the people.
"I think you asked me why I was cool and I just explained why I was not." Very, very cool!
Love seeing top comedians talking about their craft and seeing how they think and relate to each other. Seinfeld was my favorite in my 20's and 30's and Spade has been my favorite ever since.
Who knew Jerry is such a happy, warm, encouraging guy??! Loved this!
I love David Spade and don’t understand why his show was canceled. I always laughed.
Corona
Seinfeld saying he was going to ask Spade on his Comedians Riding In Cars next season that probably won't happen? It makes me want it even more. I did wonder why he wasn't on previous seasons.
David Spade would be the perfect person to play the Tiger King in a movie!
Executive A: "The popular sentiment online is that David Spade would be perfect for the role."
Executive B: "Nicolas Cage will do it in exchange for whatever expired meat we don't use."
Executive A: "*sigh* I'll call his people."
Dave Doder would be the Perfect Person to play the DooDoo DeDoo in the movie!
My mind went straight to the Joe Dirt look lol! Yes he would fit that role well.
Ha!

Love these two. I enjoyed the interview from beginning to end
25:45 parking in the red zone story absolutely killed me - such a great intvw
Great collab, love these two
i LOVE DAVID SPADE!!! David is the funniest. i love that candid moment about his dad. Jerry is hilarious! i could watch them go back and forth all day
About 16 minutes in, “you just asked me how I am cool and I just explained how I am not.” Lol:)
Great stories. Thank you both for sharing. The line where Jerry says, (paraphrasing) “listen, anyone that steps up to that mic - I respect them.” Warmed my heart. 🙏
David Spade's Chris Rock impersonation is funny!!
I don’t know how comedians do what they do. To get up there alone to entertain and remember their routine amazes me.
This was super cool! Such a chill conversation between two comics
Here's my vote for more "Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee" Love it!
We need either Lights Out or Comedians in Cars back. This was so good.
I was really enjoying "Lights Out" and then covid timing shut that down.
Love, love the respectful nature of little pokes at each other in such a humorous way… totally enjoyed this video
Brilliant and could've listened to them for 2 hours !
I'm glad we were able to see this side of David Spade because hes one of my favorite comedians. His vulnerability here is so refreshing and attractive. Its also nice to relate to him through daddy issues :) Thank you Netflix!!!!
“It’s called a cloud” 😂😂❤️
First of all, Thank You Jerry Seinfeld for your writng dedication & work ethic in making the show "Seinfeld". The dearest friend that I have ever known constantly laughed and her and I were in stiches many times. Jana & I ALWAYS watched the show at 6:30. I have watched many of your interviews regarding the nuances of comedy including laugh duration and laugh frequency. Yes, I bought your book "Is This Anything". In particular, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED YOUR SPEECH WHEN JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUSS was honored when she received the Mark Twain prize. And, I love that you are "New York". Through and through. That nucleus of 4 (5 when including Newman) was SO GOOD when you co-created Seinfeld.
And the casting. OMG! THE CASTING. Thank you to Suzie Mamann Greenberg too. The characters like "Putty" and "Poppy" the restauranteur were awesome. THANK YOU JERRY SEINFELD!
David's got a Netflix show coming?! Sweet!
I didn't realize how hard comedy work is until I watched this. Loved the interview and the conversations too.
Spade and Seinfeld, East and West meet in a delightfully entertaining interview. This is conversation.
LOL. You thought you did something here
@@psilva2462 Lol, never project your insecurities on someone else. Lolololol
@@linjicakonikon7666 I totally responded to the wrong comment. While I’m here, I agree with you and I apologize
I watched the entire show. It's nice to hear 2 guys that have known and respected each other for a long time.
they're both warm and familiar, like comfort food!!
The memories these guys can pull up to me are freaking amazing. I can barely remember what I ate yesterday, and these guys are pulling up what seem to me the most minutia memories from the 70's
I love seeing these guys together. It would be great to see Spade on Comedians in Cars.
He was on and it was a fun episode.
@@charlie-obrienlink?
@@tnt01
It wasn't a CICGC, because of Covid. But in 2020 they did a "Netflix is a Joke".
Great convo all about the inside of the comedy stand up world. So, I was a little mixed up.
That darn Covid!! (shakes fist)
Any who....

I love how these guys are so casual and yet revealing without the stiffness that seems to plague some presenters/podcasters
That was wonderful! Two friends who are funny as hell reminiscing.
Especially love when Jerry talks craft. His own rhythm, style - i.e. a joke
began, ended-up - i.e. the revisions/performing aspects. I've never heard
David talk about his own writing process - but it'd be similarly fascinating.
I remember being at All American and seeing Jerry's mom drive by with a sign on her roof, reminding us to watch her son on Carson. Massapequa was and still is awesome ^__^
Jerry is being so nice to him ❤❤❤
I like how Jerry’s background is posh NYC and David’s is 1990. ;-) That phone!!!
Nothing better then when comedians sit down and chat. Simple enjoyment
One thing about listening to comics talk is that I'd like to think that if I were in the conversation, they would like me, and find me funny as well. And that is a special thing. (Tina Fey said this about being on Letterman.)
Jerry said (many years ago) that one reason he got into doing stand-up was that: "I wanted to be one of 'those guys' over there doing jokes on stage and talking together afterwards."
That seems to be a basic element of his success.
This was a fantastic ,and fascinating genuine conversation between to guys at the top of their game. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute - and can't wait to get Jerry's book.
"Open with the banana joke."- Steve Harvey. And that Jay Leno car story is SO funny cause when Jimmy Fallon bought a pickup truck, Jay gave HIM so much crap! He was like, "Your hands are literally PINK, they're like puppy paws! These hands have never held a wrench!"
You got me calling my daughters today...lol
Luv ya Buddy!!
😘
Gold, absolutely gold.
Rules of Engagement was one of the most underrated shows of all time. DS was great in it.
It really was a great show. Just punchline after punchline.
YES!!!
