<v Speaker 3>your show is done? What's the plans this time around?

0:00:19.360 --> 0:00:21.579
<v Speaker 2>After the first one, I'm probably going to go to bed.

0:00:21.600 --> 0:00:23.890
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to be tired. But after that second one,

0:00:23.900 --> 0:00:25.940
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to be like, what can we do in Boston?

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:27.380
<v Speaker 2>There it is.

0:00:27.460 --> 0:00:29.460
<v Speaker 4>I might take it back in the day and go

0:00:29.480 --> 0:00:31.660
<v Speaker 4>over and get some of them good chicken wings and slades, man.

0:00:31.700 --> 0:00:32.180
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

0:00:32.320 --> 0:00:35.479
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you know about slades. Okay, okay.

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 4>Nice. Nice.

0:00:36.700 --> 0:00:37.920

<v Speaker 2>Oh, man, it's going to be a good time, man.

0:00:44.620 --> 0:00:46.290
<v Speaker 4>This is the thing. I've been sold out. All my

0:00:46.310 --> 0:00:48.930
<v Speaker 4>shows have been sold out for about five years everywhere,

0:00:48.950 --> 0:00:51.670
<v Speaker 4>even shows in other cities after this.

0:00:51.710 --> 0:00:55.090
<v Speaker 2>And this one is, I think there's still some tickets left.

0:00:55.130 --> 0:00:55.790
<v Speaker 2>I was shocked.

0:00:55.910 --> 0:00:57.170
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, we got to change that.

0:00:57.190 --> 0:00:58.750
<v Speaker 4>For the restaurants that want to come, I have a

0:00:58.810 --> 0:01:02.150
<v Speaker 4>rare opportunity to be like, yo, there's actually some tickets.

0:01:02.230 --> 0:01:02.470
<v Speaker 2>Pull up.

0:01:02.710 --> 0:01:04.450
<v Speaker 1>There it is, man. All right, so that's going down

0:01:04.490 --> 0:01:07.170
<v Speaker 1>Thursday and Friday, tomorrow and Friday at Wilbur. What are

0:01:07.190 --> 0:01:09.130
<v Speaker 1>we touching on? I know you're a freestyle comedian, but

0:01:09.150 --> 0:01:09.869
<v Speaker 1>what are we touching on?

0:01:10.010 --> 0:01:10.890
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, no, no, man.

0:01:10.910 --> 0:01:12.710
<v Speaker 4>They're about to give you about an hour and 20

0:01:12.709 --> 0:01:14.890
<v Speaker 4>minutes of material, and then I'll do 15, 20 of

0:01:15.310 --> 0:01:18.200
<v Speaker 4>crowd work at the end. Crowd work is just a

0:01:18.220 --> 0:01:19.480
<v Speaker 4>commercial to get you to come to.

0:01:19.420 --> 0:01:19.980
<v Speaker 2>The show, man.

0:01:20.980 --> 0:01:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Nice, okay. That was it.

0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I can't give away the good stuff.

0:01:24.140 --> 0:01:25.420
<v Speaker 1>All right, so what are we touching on?

0:01:25.459 --> 0:01:28.300
<v Speaker 2>We're going to be talking about life.

0:01:29.450 --> 0:01:32.369
<v Speaker 4>Weight loss, my family.

0:01:32.430 --> 0:01:37.270
<v Speaker 2>My father, my mom. It's great stuff.

0:01:37.330 --> 0:01:40.260
<v Speaker 3>We got Nate Jackson on. Does your family, obviously you've

0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.380
<v Speaker 3>been doing it for a couple of decades now. Do

0:01:42.420 --> 0:01:45.140
<v Speaker 3>they not tell you stuff now because they know you're

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:46.620
<v Speaker 3>going to be part of their bit?

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:48.580
<v Speaker 2>No, they tell me, but they're like, you better not

0:01:48.610 --> 0:01:48.910
<v Speaker 2>say nothing.

0:01:49.420 --> 0:01:50.500
<v Speaker 1>When they know you're going to do it.

0:01:53.270 --> 0:01:55.150
<v Speaker 2>It's better not be in your act. I'm like, you

0:01:55.170 --> 0:01:56.090
<v Speaker 2>can't tell me what to do.

0:01:56.250 --> 0:01:58.620
<v Speaker 3>Right. Or the fact that they want to be in

0:01:58.640 --> 0:02:00.060
<v Speaker 3>your act. That's why they're telling you. Because I did

0:02:00.100 --> 0:02:01.920
<v Speaker 3>mornings for a long time. And everybody was like, yo,

0:02:01.940 --> 0:02:03.180
<v Speaker 3>make sure this is not on the morning show.

0:02:03.460 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 1>And then, yeah, right. You wanted to be on the

0:02:05.300 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 1>morning show. That's why you're telling me.

0:02:07.340 --> 0:02:09.810
<v Speaker 2>Exactly. Hey, let me tell you about my weekend. Don't

0:02:09.850 --> 0:02:10.690
<v Speaker 2>put it on the morning show.

0:02:10.710 --> 0:02:10.870
<v Speaker 4>Right.

0:02:12.710 --> 0:02:13.929
<v Speaker 1>Nate Jackson's on right now.

0:02:13.950 --> 0:02:15.770
<v Speaker 3>All right, so, I mean, I know you do, like

0:02:15.790 --> 0:02:17.280
<v Speaker 3>you just said, you end off your show with a

0:02:17.310 --> 0:02:19.100
<v Speaker 3>lot of freestyle stuff. Do you ever get into a

0:02:19.180 --> 0:02:21.920
<v Speaker 3>situation where the crowd doesn't, like, react with you or

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:24.660
<v Speaker 3>doesn't give you anything? Like, what's your game plan when

0:02:24.680 --> 0:02:25.079
<v Speaker 3>that happens?

0:02:25.100 --> 0:02:28.810
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's been dry crowds. Usually, I just talk about

0:02:28.850 --> 0:02:31.350
<v Speaker 2>the fact that they're dry. You know what I'm saying?

0:02:31.410 --> 0:02:31.690
<v Speaker 2>I'm like.

0:02:32.540 --> 0:02:34.660
<v Speaker 4>guys, I really do this for real. So like, if

0:02:34.740 --> 0:02:36.860
<v Speaker 4>it's going to be dry like this, this one ain't

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:39.120
<v Speaker 4>on me. These are, these are some people that make

0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:41.420
<v Speaker 4>it a point to like try and be dry. Like

0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.520
<v Speaker 4>it's rare that somebody is that dry. But like, there

0:02:44.540 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 4>was a couple, a couple of weeks ago and they

0:02:46.500 --> 0:02:48.700
<v Speaker 4>were sitting in the front and they were trying not

0:02:48.740 --> 0:02:50.700
<v Speaker 4>to answer any questions and making it hard. Like literally

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:52.030
<v Speaker 4>like five or six inquiries.

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:52.530
<v Speaker 2>What do you do?

0:02:52.590 --> 0:02:55.489
<v Speaker 4>What's your name? They were giving me like nothing. And then, um,

0:02:55.710 --> 0:02:56.929
<v Speaker 4>and then the guy was with his girl and I

0:02:56.930 --> 0:02:58.640
<v Speaker 4>was like, well, what's, what's your name?

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:00.260
<v Speaker 2>You know what I mean? And she was like, my

0:03:00.300 --> 0:03:02.540
<v Speaker 2>name is Dante. And I was like, excuse me? And

0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:05.460
<v Speaker 2>from then on, you can forget about it.

0:03:05.820 --> 0:03:07.970
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. And I mean, this was like a, you know,

0:03:08.150 --> 0:03:10.230
<v Speaker 4>mid thirties, stunning black woman. Yeah.

0:03:10.389 --> 0:03:13.030
<v Speaker 2>But she just had, her name was just crazy. And

0:03:13.070 --> 0:03:15.070
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, why is that your name? My dad wanted

0:03:15.350 --> 0:03:17.590
<v Speaker 2>a boy and like, it was already on the paperwork.

0:03:17.610 --> 0:03:20.950
<v Speaker 2>So I'm like, You know, it's Dante, I guess. I

0:03:21.310 --> 0:03:23.310
<v Speaker 2>tried to put an A-Y. I was like, your name

0:03:23.370 --> 0:03:25.970
<v Speaker 2>is Dante, bro. You know what I'm saying? So that's

0:03:26.010 --> 0:03:26.690
<v Speaker 2>why I'm going in.

0:03:27.290 --> 0:03:30.130
<v Speaker 4>Sometimes, like, what'll happen is if they're tight like that, like, it.

0:03:30.090 --> 0:03:33.350
<v Speaker 2>Causes a recoil, right? Like, everything is tight, tight, tight, tense, tense.

0:03:33.430 --> 0:03:35.620
<v Speaker 4>And then we finally get to the lap, it's like, boom!

0:03:35.660 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 2>Because everybody had to wait for it, you know what

0:03:37.660 --> 0:03:37.780
<v Speaker 2>I mean?

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:38.160
<v Speaker 3>Got it.

0:03:38.180 --> 0:03:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Got it. Yeah, in general.

0:03:39.620 --> 0:03:43.100
<v Speaker 4>I do jokes, stories, crowd work. I do everything that

0:03:43.140 --> 0:03:45.570
<v Speaker 4>makes stand-up comedy dope. And I've been doing it for

0:03:45.570 --> 0:03:47.490
<v Speaker 4>24 years. I'm good at it. And like I said,

0:03:47.630 --> 0:03:54.200
<v Speaker 4>it's a great show. I love Boston, so we'll have fun.

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:57.290
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I literally, before I even blew up and

0:03:57.370 --> 0:03:59.930
<v Speaker 2>anybody cared, like, I would come out there and work

0:03:59.990 --> 0:04:00.410
<v Speaker 2>in Boston.

0:04:00.430 --> 0:04:04.590
<v Speaker 4>Like, I was working with Jonathan Gates and the Boston

0:04:04.610 --> 0:04:07.150
<v Speaker 4>comedy scene and even going further out and working with, like,

0:04:07.170 --> 0:04:09.839
<v Speaker 4>Corey Manning and Comedy Connections and doing Laughs Boston.

0:04:09.850 --> 0:04:12.320
<v Speaker 2>And, like, I grinded, bro. I got it out the mud.

0:04:12.940 --> 0:04:14.380
<v Speaker 2>So now that it's time to.

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.900
<v Speaker 4>Do the Wilbur and do it real big for thousands

0:04:16.980 --> 0:04:19.510
<v Speaker 4>at a time, I got to leave it all on stage.

0:04:19.630 --> 0:04:20.310
<v Speaker 1>I love it.

0:04:20.490 --> 0:04:20.849
<v Speaker 3>I love that.

0:04:20.870 --> 0:04:23.010
<v Speaker 1>And Nate Jackson's here two nights, Thursday and Friday at

0:04:23.029 --> 0:04:25.230
<v Speaker 1>the Wilbur. Any challenging cities for you?

0:04:25.490 --> 0:04:26.030
<v Speaker 2>You know what?

0:04:26.550 --> 0:04:28.350
<v Speaker 4>I want to say yes to that so bad, but

0:04:28.550 --> 0:04:31.070
<v Speaker 4>like it's changed now because, because of the power of

0:04:31.100 --> 0:04:33.840
<v Speaker 4>the internet, like the people that are, that buy my

0:04:33.860 --> 0:04:36.020
<v Speaker 4>tickets to see me are legitimately fans.

0:04:36.180 --> 0:04:36.420
<v Speaker 3>Got it.

0:04:36.620 --> 0:04:38.480
<v Speaker 4>So it's not like, it's not like I'm just going

0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:41.440
<v Speaker 4>into like Atlanta used to be like, Oh my God,

0:04:41.460 --> 0:04:43.040
<v Speaker 4>we're going into the belly of the beat.

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:44.599
<v Speaker 2>Like you better bring it. You know what I mean?

0:04:44.640 --> 0:04:47.150
<v Speaker 4>But now like, I just did a pop-up in Atlanta

0:04:47.170 --> 0:04:48.529
<v Speaker 4>and the line was all the way down the street,

0:04:48.550 --> 0:04:50.810
<v Speaker 4>around the block. And when I pulled up, they're like, no!

0:04:51.170 --> 0:04:53.330
<v Speaker 4>And I'm like, oh, this is, it's like a home field.

0:04:53.450 --> 0:04:54.990
<v Speaker 2>It's a home game. It's not an away game no more.

0:04:55.029 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 2>And that's the difference. Got it.

0:04:58.040 --> 0:04:59.920
<v Speaker 4>But there are cities that surprise me. Like, I thought

0:04:59.980 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 4>Oklahoma City was going to be dry and suck, right?

0:05:02.240 --> 0:05:05.960
<v Speaker 4>And then, like, Oklahoma City was actually, like, low-key lit. Like,

0:05:06.100 --> 0:05:07.820
<v Speaker 4>there's not that much to do, so the things that

0:05:07.850 --> 0:05:09.409
<v Speaker 4>there are to do are popping.

0:05:09.450 --> 0:05:10.170
<v Speaker 2>You know what I'm saying?

0:05:10.230 --> 0:05:13.820
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. And then it's like, wherever they're, like, their theater is, like,

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.000
<v Speaker 4>across the street from a big nightclub and catty corner

0:05:17.020 --> 0:05:18.020
<v Speaker 4>from a cool bar.

0:05:18.380 --> 0:05:20.550
<v Speaker 2>So, like, that whole block, there's just people all over.

0:05:21.029 --> 0:05:22.930
<v Speaker 2>So you end up having a great night. You know

0:05:22.950 --> 0:05:26.010
<v Speaker 2>what I mean? You're like, Oklahoma City? You know what

0:05:26.130 --> 0:05:28.050
<v Speaker 2>I mean? You're like, I didn't expect that. You know

0:05:28.070 --> 0:05:31.790
<v Speaker 2>what I mean? So it's like that. Yeah. So, no,

0:05:31.820 --> 0:05:34.150
<v Speaker 2>I don't have a city that I'm like, ugh, anymore.

0:05:34.430 --> 0:05:35.210
<v Speaker 1>There it is, man.

0:05:35.230 --> 0:05:38.170
<v Speaker 3>Nate Jackson's Thursday and Friday at the Wilbur. A few

0:05:38.190 --> 0:05:39.570

<v Speaker 3>Knicks are in town for the home opener against the Celtics, bro.

0:05:51.730 --> 0:05:52.750
<v Speaker 2>That's where I'm going up against?

0:05:52.850 --> 0:05:56.510
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, actually, you are going up against that. Maybe that's

0:05:56.550 --> 0:05:58.390
<v Speaker 1>one of the reasons. There you go. But we're going

0:05:58.410 --> 0:05:59.109

<v Speaker 2>You can check the scores on your phone.

0:06:04.170 --> 0:06:06.500
<v Speaker 4>I'll read the scores off from the stage and let

0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:08.020
<v Speaker 4>you know who's up at the end of each quarter.
