# JRE #2075 Recap: Protect Our Parks 10 (Part 2)

Joe Rogan welcomed back three of comedy's most prolific voices for the second part of the Protect Our Parks 10 episode, bringing together Shane Gillis, Mark Normand, and Ari Shaffir for an extended conversation on June 27, 2024. The trio of stand-up comics, writers, and podcasters brought their collective experience across multiple successful platforms to the podcast, creating the kind of casual, wide-ranging discussion the JRE is known for facilitating.

Shane Gillis arrived as one of the most visible comics in the space right now, balancing several major projects simultaneously. Beyond his stand-up work, Gillis co-hosts "Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast" with Matt McCusker, a show that has built a significant following within the comedy podcast ecosystem. He's also one half of the sketch comedy duo "Gilly and Keeves" alongside John McKeever, with their work finding audiences on Peacock through the series "Bupkis." His Netflix special "Beautiful Dogs" represents his latest major stand-up release, showcasing the material and perspective that has made him a notable figure in contemporary comedy.

Mark Normand brought his own slate of successful projects to the conversation. As co-host of two separate podcasts, Normand has carved out considerable real estate in the podcast space. "Tuesdays with Stories," which he hosts with Joe List, has become a staple for comedy fans seeking long-form conversation and storytelling. Simultaneously, he co-hosts "We Might Be Drunk" with fellow comic Sam Morril, demonstrating his ability to sustain multiple podcast ventures. His Netflix special "Soup to Nuts" showcases the comedic perspective he brings to both stand-up and conversational formats.

Ari Shaffir rounded out the trio, bringing his own unique voice and experience to the discussion. As the host of both "The Skeptic Tank" and "You Be Trippin'" podcasts, Shaffir has established himself as a significant voice in the podcast world with his particular comedic sensibility and interviewing style. His comedy special "Ari Shaffir: Jew," available on YouTube, represents his stand-up work and has reached substantial audiences through the digital platform.

The second part of Protect Our Parks 10 brought these three comedians together for what amounted to an in-depth conversation spanning the breadth of topics that typically emerge when experienced podcasters and stand-up comics sit down with Joe Rogan. Each guest brought their own perspective shaped by their work in stand-up, sketch comedy, podcasting, and writing, creating the kind of dynamic exchange that has made the JRE a destination for those interested in long-form conversation within the comedy world.

The episode represented another installment in Rogan's ongoing series of bringing multiple comedians together for extended discussion, a format that allows for natural conversation flow and the kind of tangential exchanges that emerge when experienced talkers are given the space and time to explore ideas together. With three of comedy's most prolific podcasters and performers in the room, the conversation drew on their combined decades of experience in stand-up, content creation, and the evolving landscape of comedy in the digital era.
