Mark Normand's Therapy Session - Opie Show

[@MHasnain2663]

Amy Schumer has the toughest gig in the world. She has to follow this guy.

[@massive_d]

But not writing the jokes must decrease her load

[@seanmatthewking]

[@YamagataSandwich]

“Mattress on the floor like an assassin” joke is so good. Comedy!

[@jp3mcpherson]

Assassins sleep on the floor? I thought you sleep on the floor when you are being hunted by an assassin.

[@mikescorpio13]

cant sleep on elevate bed...only need a mattress on the floor or just a towel or sleeping bag

Mark needs a genuine hug. Dude, you bust your butt to make people laugh so enjoy the money you received. And date women who pick up the tab. Love ya Mark.

[@antoniomarghereti6397]

Holy shit. I literaly paused the video thinking that he needed a hug. Scrolled to the comments and there it is.

[@leapyear9460]

It takes guts to be so open.

[@JohnnyNatrium]

It actually only takes guts to be so open AND respect yourself at the same time. Being a sad sack is something a lottttt of weak people do and it's a weak thing. I love Mark Normand and this was an interview of sorts where he just gives you insight and it's good - but the podcast has gotten worse and worse because they talk constantly about how much they hate themselves.

[@Paul-dw2cl]

@@JohnnyNatrium Which podcast and who’s ‘they’

[@JohnnyNatrium]

@@Paul-dw2cl Subject: Mark Normand. Premise: (their) podcast. Put 2 and 2 together fella and use google. Just out of principle I'm typing more than it would take to just answer directly. Also I should mention here that they've been getting much better again, mostly because Joe found his groove and is much happier with himself which helps keep the self-loathing blabbering to a minimum.

The dude deserves all the smoothies.

Thrift stores solve the guilt problem, wearing other peoples garbage means youre warm but didnt pay much for it, and let a kid in Malaysia go home from work early

[@AyyDeJayZone]

Id love to see him on the show and he has to have a smoothie and buy a coat and he better wear that watch Louis gave him 😂

[@Jamesviolaofficial]

Mark knows that staying hungry and not getting too comfortable keeps him sharp

[@Los47]

Dedication and discipline.

[@lassorb4752]

Deep down, yes :)

[@bieberbazzejunge]

come on, he is never hungry. he even steals sandwiches

[@juwebles4352]

I think he might just be deeply mentally ill, but then again no champion in anything has ever been mentally stable

[@Gabzpiano]

Hungry in that context usually isn't meant literally... but yeah lol

[@Woktavius]

Oh man, I was wondering what this dudes deal was after hearing some of his hints in his routines. Like no eye contact or anxiety or guilt stuff. This is nuts, thanks for opening up this way Mark youre a champ

[@mikescorpio13]

exact same him first on a Rogan multi guest pdocast and tought this guy is hyper and i dont like it....i relate so much to Mark on so many levels it is scary even down to the eye contact and guilt from eating a freaking Big Mac and opting for a granola bar.

[@Francesco-cj3oi]

Mark said his parents STILL don't fully recognize him as a professional who has a real job, he's got a bigger audience than most TV networks from 40 years ago, and he's considered the best one liner out there. No wonder he still has confidence problems We love you brother

[@eduardogutierrez6801]

This was probably more then like 3 yrs ago

[@gidonzd]

Wow. The more I hear you speaking so openly about your "problems" and difficulties the more I appreciate you. So refreshing to see someone so comfortable with sharing like this. And of course you're funny as hell. Can't get enough. COMEDY!! A huge fan from Israel. And a I'm A Jew!!

[@TylorMyers]

I can't believe I'm not the only one who feels like Mark. I slept on an air matress that would deflate thorugh the night for 2 years. I went to McDonalds once a year, and only on pay day. I could afford new bed sheets, but I still sleep on the ones I pissed on a hundred times because I was drunk. It's deep, deep guilt and shame. No matter how much money you make you can never beat it.

[@Sarry-Banders999]

man i made the mistake of telling co workers i was gonna buy a guitar. like 3 years went by and theyd ask me, "you buy that guitar? no? why not!?" well if i told you the real answer and said i feel like i dont deserve it then youd all look at me weird!

@@emanuelmota7217 usually childhood trauma my friend. Even if you think you had a good one. No idea where mine is - I feel guilty of any success like it’s undeserving and have a hard time asking for favors or help.

[@MrGreenAKAguci00]

That was a refreshing dose of honesty.

[@mordaciousfilms]

This was beautiful, man. I like hearing people open up like this. It takes strength, honestly. I resonate with a lot of this - the inability to realize one's own good life and just feeling trapped in that insecurity. Best to you!

[@FolstrimHori]

I love how both Mark and gis brother have made it in life despite their fucked up upbringing. Somebody give him a hug and a smoothie.

[@nerfche32]

Bro, you deserve everything from what you've accomplished! You're the realest comedian out there! Thanks for telling us this.

[@GG-yy4yx]

Mark is the guy people need to listen to and observe every time they make decisions as a parent. People do not realize how much their seemingly insignificant decisions can impact their kids. He’s damaged psychologically and it’s because of negligent parents who *thought* they were doing a good job.

OMG Mark I'm 34 and been a fan ... I've never heard anything so relatable with the buying angst. Not that I have shit for money now, but coats, burgers, smoothies ... I so understand.

A truly profound conversion - loved this. Thank you for sharing, Mark!

[@ScarletBrotherhood]

Mark, you just need an assistant/helper monkey that you can "pay" who'll then turn around and "buy you gifts" like furniture, clothing, and food.

[@LanceDobson]

This exactly

[@PhaedruS007]

I was thinking along the same lines. If he was in a relationship with a woman to where they started sharing the management of finances, would he be OK with her spending his money on things like furniture and a warm coat. Still his money, but through her decision and not his. By this I am not calling girlfriends and wives “helper monkeys“, but I’m not not calling them that.

I can 100% relate to how Mark feels. I thought i was the only one that feels like this.

[@TK-kz3gx]

Man I am the exact same way... I've also gone to therapy. Beat myself up constantly even though I've done pretty well for myself. 3 things have helped: 1. Meditation 2. Monthly mushroom trips 3. LSD microdosing But still, I go pretty hard on myself if something doesn't go exactly as I planned. With that said, I've started doing better about micro managing the small details. Like I used to berate myself if I didn't brush my teeth in the most efficient manner or some shit. Daily routines, meal budgets, etc all that stuff used to be watched like a hawk and scrutinized in my mind. Slowly letting it go and focusing my energy on bigger picture things.
