    Kramer: “Jerry, you in the headphone zone?”
    Jerry: “Nooooo! No zone. I dont like the zone. I dont want the zone. Keep. Me. Out. Of. The. Zone. Im a no-zoner.”
    Kramer: stumbles around “you need the zone jerry!” slams the door behind him

    Jerry has become the guy from Seinfeld who wanted people to call him "Maestro".
  • @carrieoh7197
    His voice never changes! He sounds EXACTLY the same as 30 years ago!

    If you're not sure that Jerry Seinfeld is a comic genius than just ask him, he'll let you know.

    i am watching a radio show. the 21st century is really something.
  • @parkerxjr
    Honesty is very funny . I think a lot confuse arrogance with confidence. Jerry is great and he knows it. .
  • @bampcs
    There is a reason Jerry Seinfeld is so successful. He's disciplined. He understands how the "mechanics" of language works. And he strives for the efficient use of language so that no word is wasted and that there are no unnecessary words getting in the way of the joke and the laugh.

    Just in case anyone wants to know the reason radio people wear headphones and TV people do not. :)

    In radio, the person doing the interview is also the sound engineer. They have to listen for the end of the commercial so they can talk. They have to be able to hear the song that they are introducing if they are talking over the intro. The speakers in the room turn off whenever a microphone is turned on to prevent a feedback look or echo from the microphone picking up the song or commercial. Therefore, they must wear headphones or else they can't hear when to talk. Also, during an interview, they have to control the volume of everyone's mic in real time so they wear headphones to hear what the live feed sounds like and adjust accordingly.

    In TV, you have a sound engineer who does all this for you and a floor director to tell you when to talk.

    Sorry, but I couldn't resist. :)

    The statement of 5 years to build a great hour is the first time I have heard a comedian get specific about writing good stuff.
  • @jamesmick8653
    It's amazing how many of you think he's arrogant. He's been doing this his whole adult life and has it down to a science. When you get to that level, there's nothing wrong with being direct. He's just very honest in interviews, plus he lives for comedy so he's quite often angling for a laugh. So many haters. You should all check out some Jerry Lewis behind the scenes, you'd lose your lunch.

    Rodney Dangerfield wrote hundreds of thousands of pages through his career, as did Carlin, 2 of the arguably best ever, how could anyone doubt the value of actual writing
  • @LilieFu
    I like how he straight up told his wife, “I’m going to start acting differently.” No mystery.
  • @captjackhenry
    Amazing how many people are critical of one of the objectively greatest comedians alive.

    Always amazes me how jealous or unkind people can be.

    That's why Teddy Roosevelt wrote "it's not the critic that counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better .. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena"
  • @myjizzureye
    I love the uncomfortable laughing at things that are not funny in case Jerry meant for them to be funny.
  • @stratdx
    Seeing Jerry laugh is so absolutely satisfying.
  • @rigsby1454
    Seinfeld has always been waaaay darker than people think. His comedy is always on the edge of being incredibly angry. He’s a man suppressing all of it
