Brian Marshall & The ROCK 108 Morning Show - Comedian Chad Daniels

Those of you in the know and P1 nation know that I grew up in central, Minnesota this individual lifelong resident of the Twin Cities Minneapolis to be specific comedian Chad Daniels joining us today.

Hello.

Hey, how are you?

I'm doing well.

Should I should I do it in the way that we know up north there a

It's good to be on your radio show or

no, it's just amazing, you know

What is it?

Spent some time here in Iowa and then grew up and spent about 13 years in central Minnesota.

As everybody says, 60 miles north of the cities.

Ah, gotcha.

Yeah.

So I lived in, I was born and raised in Fergus Falls and then lived there until about two years ago.

I moved to Minneapolis for a little bit when I started comedy and then raised the kids up in Fergus Falls.

And then when my youngest went to school, I went back to Minneapolis to get closer to the airport.

Right.

And people don't realize.

Living in Fergus Falls, you're kind of detached from most of everything.

Yeah.

People are like, Hey, where do you do open mics?

And it's like, Oh, I don't know.

Open mics.

I asked my kids if I can tell stories about them.

And if they say yes, then I do it.

And if they say no, then I wish that I could.

And I write it in a journal just in case I decided to do it later when they're adult.

So with this, the new Netflix standup comedy special, empty nester available now.

What are you focusing on an empty nester?

This one's basically about dropping off my daughter at school, the changes in my life, and then the relationship I got into after that.

Now that you're dropping your kids off at school, it's that quick you have to drop off and then you have to peel up really fast so that the friends don't see you, right?

That was high school.

I mean, her friends saw me tear up when I was dropping her off.

I was doing everything in my power.

I was, I was.

pretty sad about dropping her off, quite frankly.

And so I get in the rental car because she goes to school in California.

So

I

get in the rental car, I'm going back to the airport, and I can feel the sadness come up in me.

And I do what a lot of guys do, right?

I turn sadness into rage.

I'm better at managing anger.

And so I try to punch the horn of the rental car through the steering column.

I'm at this red light.

There's one car in front of me.

And

I hit it

with everything I had, and the horn just went, meep, like that.

And I lost my mind, started hammering this thing, meep, meep, meep, meep.

So finally the guy in front of me rolls a window down, sticks his hat on, he's like, did I do something?

And I was like, I'm

going home

to an

empty

house.

Just like yelled that.

Then I saw this guy, he looks both ways and runs a red light.

And I was like, uh-huh.

That is absolutely what you have to do when there's a psychopath behind you.

Yeah.

Chad Daniels joining us on Rock108.

There's a thing that some of you have heard of, but haven't experienced it.

And now that you hear Chad is punching the horn of his rental car, Minnesota Nice is a thing that does truly exist.

And how do you make sure that others out there know that you're a nice guy?

Yeah, Minnesota Nice is interesting because it's a lot of, oh, okay, Becky.

Yeah, all the kids are good.

That's right.

I love your new hairdo.

And then as soon as the door shuts, they're like, you know, I've hated Becky my entire life, right?

That is Minnesota.

Nice to a tee.

Yeah.

Daniel's joining us here on the Rock 108 morning show.

You catching any of the Olympics at all?

Oh man, I love the Olympics.

This whole, this whole gymnastics thing has got me hook, line and sinker, man.

I, I love a good narrative.

I love this Simone Biles thing where she's like, I got to take some time to get my brain right.

Everybody freaks out.

and then she gets her brain right and comes back and just dominate.

Yeah.

I mean, pure domination.

If that is not a great billboard for people that are, you know, like going through some stuff, it's like, hey, take a breath, get everything reset, and then attack the day.

I just love it.

I love that kind of

stuff.

I mean, the other narrative has been a couple of times during the ceremony.

I'm just waiting for the third story to drop.

There was the

Opening ceremony where the guy supposedly had one of his boys hanging out of his shorts and then this pole Walter that knocks off the bar supposedly with bulge in his pants What's the next one to fall here?

Yeah, who knows I think it's gonna be just some somebody hiding the metal between their breasts I suppose we can't even see the metal.

Oh, yeah, I remember there was a I think a guy from Japan that did the same thing and the

maybe it was the high jump one time, but I remember it was, yeah, it was just one little, one little shift in the short.

Next thing you know, the metal, metal dreams are dashed.
