  • Comedian Alex Aderman, his critically acclaimed hit show, Just For Us, is now an HBO special, where he takes audiences into unexpected places to explore antisemitism and his Jewish identity, like the time he snuck into a meeting of white supremacists.
  • Here's a sneak peek.
  • I grew up in Boston.
  • I grew up in this really racist part of Boston called Boston.
  • It's a Tuesday night, and I'm doing my favorite thing.
  • When I'm alone, I lie on my couch, and I hold my phone like an otter, like an inch from my face.
  • And I see this tweet, and I sent it to my best friend in the world, and I wrote, David, do you want to come with me to this meeting of Nazis and queens?
  • Please welcome the fabulous Alex Adelman.
  • First of all Welcome to the view.
  • Thanks so much.
  • I'm like gobsmacked Well, and second of all, I'm so proud of you.
  • Thank you.
  • I'll be jeez.
  • We go back a while.
  • Yeah and I'm so
  • I mean, like they're, Whoopi, Whoopi is, I met Whoopi when I was like, eighteen years old at the Ninety Second Street Y. I was in college, I was like, freshman at NYU.
  • And she gave me her email address, and so, which I will now give out to, no, I'm just kidding.
  • But I, but Whoopi gave me your email address, and I looked back at those emails a couple of weeks ago, and like, the emails I sent you were like, college kid emails.
  • She's like, how are you?
  • I'm like, I'm failing calculus, Whoopi!
  • So Whoopi is such a role model for me.
  • Maybe you don't know this, but there aren't many comedians who have been lucky enough to do Broadway.
  • And so Whoopi and Billy Crystal and Mike Rabiglia and very few others, they're the gold standard.
  • So it's really cool to be able to do that.
  • So the special is based on the one man show you've been performing all over the world and on Broadway for the past six years.
  • How are you feeling about it?
  • I mean, it's crazy.
  • It's like I made cookies in my apartment for a while and they were like, oh, good cookies.
  • And then they're like, two hundred people want to try the cookies.
  • You're like, well, OK.
  • And then two thousand.
  • They're like, now we're going to ship your cookies everywhere and see if it's like, yeah, I hope people like like the cookies.
  • The cookie is delicious.
  • Yeah, well, I'm really, I'm nervous.
  • I'm excited.
  • I'm a little sad to be putting away this thing that's been so wonderful.
  • You know, I don't think I'll tell these jokes again.
  • So it's very, you know, a little bittersweet, but you know, bittersweet cookies.
  • Everybody loves bittersweet cookies.
  • So the show is based on a true story about you going into a neo Nazi rally.
  • Sure.
  • In Queens.
  • In Queens, yes, in Queens.
  • It was like, it was a couple, it was, you know, a couple people in an apartment, so it was not much of a rally, but yes, it was like... How did you exactly, a devout Jew, I understand you're a religious Jew, how did you exactly end up at the neo Nazi meeting?
  • Yeah.
  • Tell us how that happened.
  • You know, I was single.
  • And mixers at Shull weren't exactly working out for me.
  • I had gone down this sort of rabbit hole on Twitter of antisemitism.
  • Or I guess, yeah, like white nationalists and stuff.
  • And I started adding them to this list that I made a list on, to annoy them, I made a list on Twitter and I'd add them to the list.
  • And the name of the list, and they saw this when they were added, was Jewish National Fund Contributors.
  • And so they get really worked up and they're like,
  • I've never contributed to the Jewish National Fund.
  • And it was always like, there's still time, you know?
  • And so.
  • Did they realize at any point that you were not German?
  • Yeah, they realized that the, not to spoil the end, you want to know at the end of people if they kill me.
  • He's still here to tell the story.
  • Yeah, I'm still here.
  • But they do at some point figure out that I'm Jewish and a conversation ensues and yeah.
  • You have to see the show.
  • Alex, Whoopi always tells us not to read the comments from social media.
  • It's not a healthy thing.
  • You went ahead with that and read the comments, engaged, and then infiltrated.
  • Now, it did not go swimmingly, I would think.
  • Yeah, but did you ever consider how badly this could have gone?
  • There was one moment where I felt like a little nervous, but it's more like your stomach's like, oh, no, we're in trouble with the principal nervous.
  • Not my life is in danger, nervous?
  • No, but when I called my mom afterwards, I told her, I have a policy that whenever I go to a meeting about nationalists, I immediately tell my mom afterwards.
  • Yeah, I called my mom and my mom, and I'm cleaning this up because we're on daytime, my mom went, you need to get a job.
  • My mom was like, you used to have a job on a sitcom, you had health care, and now you do stupid stuff like this.
  • So, just please go get a job.
  • That's such a classic mom response.
  • As moms, we would be terrified for you.
  • But listen, in the special, you talk... This was interesting to me.
  • You talk about having conflicting feelings and maybe even a brief flirtation with one of the white nationalist attendees.
  • Yeah.
  • And you also... I'm gonna have sweet... No, I'm just kidding.
  • And apparently you also felt a little bit bad for these people.
  • Yeah.
  • I mean, they're racists in New York City.
  • They're racist.
  • I say in the special, you can't even get... You can't even get the seventeen Nazis together in New York without a Jew being sat right there in the middle of you, you know?
  • It's a very diverse environment.
  • But not to give a serious answer here, but, um...
  • But look, everyone, I point it out in the show, I take a very brave stand in the show that being a Nazi is not ideal, but to that extent, these people, they do have frustrations, they feel powerless, they feel voiceless, and those are universal struggles.
  • Oh, boom, boom.
  • I know, but you engage all the time with Trump people, right?
  • I do.
  • I do.
  • You say that.
  • I do.
  • But you do.
  • You want to understand their perspective.
  • This is a show that's partially based on the... This right here is a show that's partially based on the premise that people have different opinions and come together and have productive conversations about those opinions in hope of, like, getting to something.
  • So, like... So, yeah, I'm just...
  • Doing that but the one man view Between a Trump supporter and a Nazi let's differentiate between a Trump supporter and a Nazi it's a little different I'm engaging people who do not want joy you will get a kick out of this.
  • I'm telling you it's Somehow serious at the same time.
  • Yeah
  • But I want to ask you, many of your comedy heroes have come to see your show in person.
  • Jerry Seinfeld, Steve Martin, Billy Crystal.
  • Does that ever get normal to you?
  • Do you get starstruck?
  • Yeah, you get extremely starstruck.
  • I watched it.
  • If one of them is sitting right there, I'm just like.
  • You know, I try not to look at that.
  • Do you want to know when somebody famous is in the audience?
  • I always know when someone famous is in the audience.
  • They're coming to work and everyone's weird.
  • And I'm like, who is it today?
  • Sarah Jessica... I mean, like, Sarah Jessica Parker came to the show.
  • Like, when... You know... By the way, Whoopi... This is how nice Whoopi goes.
  • I'm gonna embarrass you.
  • Whoopi wanted to come to the show.
  • Her schedule changed.
  • She sent cookies for the entire cast and crew, which was extremely nice of her.
  • She's very generous.
  • She's very generous.
  • But whenever the comics come, I always ask them for advice.
  • I always, like, dig advice out of them.
  • Like, when Billy Crystal came, I really tried to pull some advice out of him, because he's actually weirdly humble.
  • He was like, I don't want to.
  • But then he called me a few days later, and he's like, if you move from a handheld microphone to a headset microphone, it will change your show completely.
  • Oh, that's practical advice.
  • I mean, hopefully for the better, right?
  • But I tried it, and it was great advice.
  • Yeah, you can move more easily.
  • And Steve Martin gave me a joke.
  • So if you're curious about the show, it is co written by Steve Martin.
  • Alex, it is such a pleasure to see you here.
  • Such a pleasure and an honor.
  • And keep going.
  • Keep doing your thing.
  • Thank you.
  • Thanks so much.
  • You're such a role model.
  • This is so wonderful for me.
  • Thanks so much for having me.
  • Alice Adelman, Just For Us premieres on HBO and Max on April sixth.
  • Do yourself a favor, you gotta see it.
