Comedian Mark Normand sits down with Bobby for a wide-ranging conversation about life on the road, becoming a new dad, and why he still approaches comedy like he has something to prove. Mark explains why he doesn’t want to rely on crowd work, how he tests new material even when it means having a rough set, and what he thinks about the constant pressure to feed social media with clips. He also shares the comedians who influenced him most, what criticism still gets under his skin, why he prefers smaller rooms to arenas, and how becoming a dad has changed the way he spends his time at home. Plus, Mark gets into his writing process, going viral, making his own movie, and why he’s still happiest just working out jokes.

For episode 666, Bobby dives into some of the darkest myths and wildest conspiracy theories in music history. He breaks down the legend of Robert Johnson supposedly selling his soul to the devil at the crossroads, why virtuoso musicians were once accused of being possessed, and how Jimmy Page and Led Zeppelin became tied to satanic rumors. Bobby also gets into the strange theories surrounding “Hotel California,” the infamous “Paul is dead” Beatles conspiracy, backward masking hysteria, and whether there’s really anything sinister behind the 27 Club. Along the way, he separates the stories from what actually happened and looks at why people have always been so quick to connect great music with something darker.
