making his "tonight show" debut, please welcome the very funny, jared freid [ cheers and applause ♪ >> how we doing everybody! we good? [ cheers and applause i do a lot of shows. i perform for the troops, and those shows are always the best [ cheers and applause the best i also perform at colleges, those shows are always weird [ laughter ] i was at a college once. i came on stage, my first words out of my mouth i said, "i love doing shows for college kids." this guy stands up in the corner he goes, "we're not kids we're adults!" [ laughter ] i look at him, i go, "one question who bought your underwear? [ laughter and applause

i'll never forget it he goes, "go on with the show. [ laughter ] i get that i thought i was an adult in college. i definitely was not i used to wear one polo shirt with another polo shirt over it yeah, and then pop up both of the collars. [ cheers and applause that's not how an adult dresses! there's no adult walking around like an aggressive tulip [ laughter ] my girlfriend, she would wear two polos too. two people, four polos [ laughter and applause when we hooked up it looked like a brooks brother's fitting room [ laughter ] you're not an adult in college one semester i lived with three of my friends in one room. we called it bunkzilla no man lives in a bunkzilla. [ laughter ] if a man lives guys three other men, that's not a home, that's a shelter. [ laughter ]

and no woman here would go home to bunkzilla tonight that's the difference in college, they would. one night we all brought women home [ laughter ] that's right one room four beds. eight people 16 polos [ laughter and applause i don't know i think people don't like college students because they speak confidently on things we know they can't be confident about yet. like the two stories are always written that they're outraged or they're shamed. i didn't know outrage in college. i learned about outrage the first time i saw the taxes come out of a paycheck. [ laughter ] right? that weird moment where you're like, "i don't even use roads. [ laughter ] i learned shame the first time i laughed at a boss's joke

you wouldn't do that in front of your child. be like, "turn around timmy, daddy's got to pay rent ha, ha, ha." [ laughter ] "you're right. monday's are weird." i don't even know what an adult is any more. i'm 36 i'm doing stuff i thought i would have grown up out of years ago every time i fly somewhere, i text my parents, "landed." [ laughter and applause you ever read that text back to yourself you don't sound like a man "landed. you sound like a spoiled prince "mommy, put my jammies in the dryer. i prefer them warm with my milk and cookies. tell papa i'll be taking story time in my quarters. the prince of needham has landed." [ laughter and applause i love going home for the

holidays i like seeing my family. i like seeing where all my insecurities came from [ light laughter ] right? if you're family has a problem, you probably have a very similar problem. my familly -- the whole family is insecure. food, body, weight that's our whole family. i walked in the house one day, my mom looks at me, she goes, "you look so skinny. my dad's across the room, he yells out, he goes, "he's wearing all black. [ laughter ] i was like, "is my inner monologue playing on the alexa? [ laughter ] i talk about my weight on stage a lot. some people get very uncomfortable. i had a woman she stood up once, she goes, "you're not fat. that's the worst thing you could ever yell at someone who's not skinny [ laughter ] because then the show becomes a town hall meeting on whether i'm fat or not someone stood up, "there, like, he's jolly though. [ laughter ] another person was like, "can men be curvy?" [ laughter ]

someone in the middle was like, "there's led in the water. i'm like, "you're at the wrong meeting, bro." [ laughter and applause i just want to get in shape enough to take a vacation to tulum, mexico. if you know, tulum, that's where all of the celebrities and influencers go i've never seen someone there with a bad body. i think they weigh you at the mexican border [ laughter ] like, i think i would get to mexico, they'd be like, "hola. step on the scale. i'd step on, they'd look down, they'd be like, "well have fun in cancun.
