Gee. 418 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:07,200 Speaker 2: We got a think tank and comedians just get in 419 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 2: the room and we start throwing ideas around. I said, well, 420 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,440 Speaker 2: find out who came up with that premise. I said, 421 00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 2: you know that's my bid, it's on showtime, it's all 422 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:17,879 Speaker 2: right now, and nobody could give me an answer. So 423 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: somebody got in that think tank or like, hey, you 424 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 2: know what a good idea, but we got everything on video. 425 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 3: You know, how often do you watch other comedians? 426 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: Do you watch it?

It's 433 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 2: two things, like I get frustrated. Why I'll get frustrated 434 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,360 Speaker 2: because why do they have a special and I don't, 435 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 2: but all comedians think we deserve the special, right, And 436 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 2: then I don't want to ever think that. I don't 437 00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 2: want to psych myself out. I seen comics do that. 438 00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,520 Speaker 2: They'll stop doing because somebody's doing a bit on the 439 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,200 Speaker 2: same time, get better than they are, right, So I 440 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 2: was like, I just obviously watched clips.

Now, 585 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 1: nobody said anything because Flip Wilson was the first guy 586 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: that I remember doing it when he was Geraldine he 587 00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: had this show on television. 588 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 3: But since then you remember that? 589 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: I don't remember it, but I know he dressed as 590 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 2: a woman. 591 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, but since And the guy that catches the 592 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 1: most criticism obviously is Tyler Perry because the Medea role 593 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: that he plays. 594 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,040 Speaker 2: What do you think Tyler Perry regrets putting on that dress? 595 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:21,480 Speaker 3: I don't. 596 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 2: Well, no, right, that's what I'm saying. He put the 597 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 2: titties on. Yeah, the billy. I think at one point 598 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 2: he had a Cambelton.

There wasn't that 1154 00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,680 Speaker 2: many black shows, and I was new. I didn't I 1155 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:43,680 Speaker 2: didn't have the cachet like. I wasn't like, oh that's Geary. 1156 00:52:43,719 --> 00:52:45,239 Speaker 2: He's been around for a while. I didn't know a 1157 00:52:45,320 --> 00:52:47,600 Speaker 2: lot of people. So it was just like and some 1158 00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,720 Speaker 2: More said it best. Like some More was the host 1159 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 2: a couple of years before I was. Yes, she I 1160 00:52:52,440 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 2: was talking to her at that time and I remember 1161 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,919 Speaker 2: she going, she goes Gary, it don't matter who gets 1162 00:52:56,960 --> 00:52:59,160 Speaker 2: a job, they gonna get hate. She was I was 1163 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:01,200 Speaker 2: the first woman, so they was a lot of the 1164 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,960 Speaker 2: male comics. It was like, you know, now to give 1165 00:53:04,000 --> 00:53:06,600 Speaker 2: it to a woman, right, she goes, you being white 1166 00:53:06,719 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 2: makes it super easy to hate. So she goes it 1167 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,520 Speaker 2: don't matter who they and it's true whoever becomes a 1168 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:15,200 Speaker 2: host again in the green room, we talked with this 1169 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,120 Speaker 2: in comics, We're like we always be like, we all 1170 00:53:17,160 --> 00:53:18,640 Speaker 2: have our choice who they think should have got it, 1171 00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:20,759 Speaker 2: so it don't matter who the host is. I was 1172 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,200 Speaker 2: just easy because I was white. 1173 00:53:23,200 --> 00:53:26,520 Speaker 3: Specials. How difficult is it to get a special? 1174 00:53:28,239 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 2: H You mean, like I haven't got a Netflix one yet. 1175 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:37,359 Speaker 2: I think it's caause I'm white. They're not keeping white 1176 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,400 Speaker 2: guys specials on Netflix. No, I don't know why. I 1177 00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 2: think you beat yourself up. Like I saw Godfrey on 1178 00:53:41,960 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 2: here and he was talking about that too, and I 1179 00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 2: was like, when I saw Godfreend, I go, yeah, yeah, 1180 00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,480 Speaker 2: I think every comic thinks they deserve that Netflix special 1181 00:53:49,880 --> 00:53:52,720 Speaker 2: and I'm no different. You know, I've been in the trenches, 1182 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,640 Speaker 2: I've done my work, But I think I just had 1183 00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,440 Speaker 2: a conversation with Bill Burr at an a the Bourbank 1184 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,440 Speaker 2: Airport years go, and he just goes, you know what, 1185 00:54:02,239 --> 00:54:05,680 Speaker 2: home be so funny. They can't deny me, and I went, 1186 00:54:06,840 --> 00:54:09,399 Speaker 2: so all I can control is to be funny. It's 1187 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:12,360 Speaker 2: out of my hands if a network wants to do 1188 00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 2: a specially with me or not. But I mean, hopefully, yeah, 1189 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,160 Speaker 2: that's the goal to get one one day on Netflix. 1190 00:54:18,360 --> 00:54:21,359 Speaker 2: But if it never happens, I still I got great life. 1191 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:23,840 Speaker 2: I sell a lot of tickets. I'm good, but I 1192 00:54:23,960 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 2: do want it. Don't get twisted. And I put a 1193 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 2: lot of work into my specialist. I don't just put 1194 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 2: them out there, like, oh I got special let me 1195 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:31,440 Speaker 2: just throw it out there. 1196 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 3: I go. 1197 00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:35,080 Speaker 2: I put a lot of like thought into it, like okay, 1198 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 2: I really want to be saying something, especially I got 1199 00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 2: I got tu in the cam right now we're shopping. Man. 1200 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 2: That the first one is very well, you're not gonna 1201 00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,719 Speaker 2: like it, hate my dad, avoid the process server type. 1202 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 2: But the second one, I still we got out there too, 1203 00:54:50,880 --> 00:54:55,200 Speaker 2: like is very military. I purposely did know racial jokes 1204 00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:58,319 Speaker 2: because people I hear that sometimes like just black white. 1205 00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,440 Speaker 2: I hear people even got the divorce I have now 1206 00:55:00,719 --> 00:55:04,440 Speaker 2: act now he's divorced. I said, oh, you have no idea? 1207 00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:07,000 Speaker 3: What about canceled culture? 1208 00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:10,880 Speaker 1: Are they words that there's something that because and you know, 1209 00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,120 Speaker 1: we talk about like what they can say back in 1210 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,279 Speaker 1: the eighties and the seventies, even on tennis sitcoms. I 1211 00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: mean the Jefferson and all the Archie Bunker, all in 1212 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: the I think, all the family. Yeah, but you can't 1213 00:55:23,719 --> 00:55:25,960 Speaker 1: talk like that. Now, how do you how do you 1214 00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:26,879 Speaker 1: navigate that gear? 1215 00:55:27,600 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 2: Well, I'm to say I can't say the N word. 1216 00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 2: That's when you're getting that. I go, but yeah, I 1217 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 2: can't say that. But I think live comedy shows, you're fine. 1218 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:41,000 Speaker 2: And that's why we don't want your cell phones out right, 1219 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:43,040 Speaker 2: because I think people go to shows with a level 1220 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:46,359 Speaker 2: of expectation and if you don't meet that expectation, they're disappointed. Right, 1221 00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,600 Speaker 2: But some people want to hear the uncomfortable. Yeah, you know, 1222 00:55:50,000 --> 00:55:53,399 Speaker 2: and I'm like that, I think you know. But that's 1223 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,759 Speaker 2: the thing, like you got to ask yourself, is it 1224 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:59,279 Speaker 2: worth it for me to stand on my two feet 1225 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:01,000 Speaker 2: and say I'm gonna do this joke. I don't care, 1226 00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,160 Speaker 2: I'll say what I want. Is it worth it if 1227 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 2: you get the backlash? Because it is gonna come? And 1228 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 2: are you have you created a strong enough fan base 1229 00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,680 Speaker 2: that cancel culture can't mess with you because there are 1230 00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:16,520 Speaker 2: people like Chappelle. He can't be canceled, Ricky Gervais, he 1231 00:56:16,640 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 2: cannot be canceled. Andrew Schultz cannot be canceled. I would 1232 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 2: think Shane Gillis right now, he can. A cat can't 1233 00:56:24,120 --> 00:56:28,880 Speaker 2: be canceled. Kevin can. Kevin's very corporate. Kevin has to 1234 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:30,719 Speaker 2: be careful what he says, you know what I mean. 1235 00:56:31,080 --> 00:56:33,640 Speaker 2: So that's what I'm saying. Like someone like Kevin Chappelle, 1236 00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:37,160 Speaker 2: they don't have they don't have these corporate, corporate deals. 1237 00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 2: Kevin's got to be careful, and I'm sure there's some 1238 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 2: things he wants to say, but he ain't trying to 1239 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,200 Speaker 2: mess up that check. Just like you. You don't defend 1240 00:56:45,239 --> 00:56:49,320 Speaker 2: black women, you know what I mean. I'm sure like 1241 00:56:49,440 --> 00:57:01,000 Speaker 2: wranglers about to call you John Deere, I got there. 1242 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,040 Speaker 3: You go. See, I should have never opened that that 1243 00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:10,360 Speaker 3: care of word because I know doubt I think you 1244 00:57:10,440 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 3: ought to go on a uh that show next week? 1245 00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:15,839 Speaker 2: Who show? 1246 00:57:15,880 --> 00:57:19,960 Speaker 1: I ain't telling you, uh how this comedy changed from 1247 00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 1: when you first got in to what we see right now. 1248 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 2: We we were at the mercy. We needed somebody to 1249 00:57:25,680 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 2: put us on. So now, like I said, you can 1250 00:57:28,320 --> 00:57:30,120 Speaker 2: control your own you know what I mean? 1251 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 3: I gotta. 1252 00:57:31,000 --> 00:57:32,760 Speaker 2: I got a guy that goes enroll me right now 1253 00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:37,600 Speaker 2: called the Mailman. He's a TikTok guy and he's not 1254 00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:39,640 Speaker 2: He didn't start at the stand up. He started a 1255 00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,960 Speaker 2: social media guy. But he wants to be a stand up. 1256 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 2: So I tell he's from Cincinnati, you know. I like 1257 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 2: the hometown is like always good. So I bring on 1258 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,760 Speaker 2: the road now so we can work his act out. 1259 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 2: But there's no gatekeepers with him, so to speak, So 1260 00:57:52,600 --> 00:57:54,800 Speaker 2: he couldn't. He could have never did something like that 1261 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 2: years ago. And now, like, you don't need somebody's permission 1262 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 2: to put a joke out. Man. I thought about that too. 1263 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:05,280 Speaker 2: I was like, man, you really we all know those 1264 00:58:05,320 --> 00:58:09,880 Speaker 2: funny guys that never popped because for whatever reason, they 1265 00:58:11,040 --> 00:58:14,960 Speaker 2: the powers that be didn't put them on. But you know, 1266 00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:17,720 Speaker 2: so now you don't. You can't blame nobody else if 1267 00:58:17,720 --> 00:58:20,360 Speaker 2: you don't have a Netflix special, if you don't quote 1268 00:58:20,400 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 2: unquote get your turn. Why isn't Hollywood ever taken a 1269 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 2: chance on me? Take a chance on yourself. 1270 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 3: You look at the comedians, So where are you with 1271 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 3: these comedians?
