19
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:03,920

Speaker 2: I was like trying to. I was like trying to.

25
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 4: I mean I wanted them to see that I knew him,

26
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 4: you know what I mean. It was like a real ego,

27
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,600

61
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 1: from you. I thought you had your ear wigs in

62
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 1: and what is it.

63
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 6: The producers were like, you have to let some people

64
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,639
Speaker 6: get out, geta I was accepting everyone, so I was like, okay.

65
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 5: He said, but cocky, he's out. It was the coolest thing.

66
00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 6: And this is how I knew Eric was going to

67
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,799
Speaker 6: be so successful because we knew each other.

68
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 5: I had admitted to know.

69
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: I'd forgotten him every time we met for five years.

70
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 6: Eric had my number and he texted me and he

71
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 6: goes because I was like, sorry, you're you can't go forward.

72
00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 6: And it was me and Greg Geralder and Andy Killer

73
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,160
Speaker 6: and Eric texted me and he's like, I just want

74
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,000
Speaker 6: you to know that I'm totally cool, and I know

75
00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 6: that you've got a thing in your ear and we're

76
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 6: all good and you know, love, and it was like

77
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 6: so mature and so cool and no one else did

78
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 6: anything like that, and I was like, well, it was

79
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 6: just so cool because you were like you were so savvy.

80
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 5: You're like I already know how this worked.

81
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 6: So I was like, wow, Eric, is really that's a

82
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 6: that was a class act.

83
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:53,720
Speaker 5: You don't remember that.

84
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:59,800
Speaker 2: You don't remember that.

85
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 6: No, it really touched me because I was like, I

86
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 6: had never done anything that big.

87
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 5: Because how do you set you must?

88
00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,960
Speaker 2: You seemed cool, calm and collected. I thought you had.

89
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 2: I thought everybody was but you.

90
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 6: But usually your ego gets involved if you're doing an

91
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,479
Speaker 6: audition to be on a show in front of people

92
00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 6: and someone's like your friend is like sorry, I.

93
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,480
Speaker 1: Never like I didn't grow up with Last Comic Standing,

94
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 1: like it came out when we.

95
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 5: Were like I'm just saying in general.

96
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,760

99
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,040
Speaker 1: it didn't have like legacy to it, so I didn't.

00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: I didn't you even care for real?

101
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,919
Speaker 1: No, I wasn't like this is how I get fame.

102
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: I didn't believe it. I was skeptical of the show. Oh,

103
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: I actually was like, I was like, I think this

104
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:49,839
Speaker 1: show might be a curse.

105
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,040

129
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,440

131
00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 4: We went away to Palm Springs because it was her

132
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,200
Speaker 4: birthday and birthday thank you. She was in a bathing

133
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 4: suit a lot, so my dick was on rock and

134
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 4: we were staying in the room with with our kid,

135
00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:05,640
Speaker 4: and it was just like we thought about maybe trying

136
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 4: to like lock the door to the bathroom. But we

137
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,320

138
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:10,920
Speaker 4: knocking like she knew something was up.

139
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 2: She was like, let me in, let me in.

140
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 6: It's hard when you're on vacation or traveling or even

141
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 6: doing work and traveling with a kid, because like renting

142
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 6: two hotel rooms is kind of the kinds of places

143
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 6: I want to stay at.

144
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 5: It's not always affordable.

145
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,600
Speaker 2: It is interesting that you pissed on us at one

146
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,120
Speaker 2: point in our careers. That's I didn't pee on you.

00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 2: You did. Actually I peed on you.

148
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 5: Yes, in our hot tub and we had.

00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 2: Why that's discussed? Why do that was your personal that's know.

154
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,719

Speaker 6: then filled it back up.

158
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: Kids peeing hot tubs all the time. That's what chlorine's for. Disgusting.

159
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:57,040

187
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I had a guy in Ireland. Ireland was one

188
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 4: of my most epic bombs ever. I did the Kilkenny

189
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 4: Cat Laughs. Festal you ever do that. It's a festival

190
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 4: in the like hinterlands of Ireland, like like in the

191
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 4: in the in like a medieval kind of country village.

192
00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 4: And I remember the.

193
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: Like speak Gaelic for real. Well they they it's like.

194
00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 4: A it's like a theme park kind of place, but

195
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 4: it's you think it's going to be charming, but it's

196
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 4: actually you're in the country. You're in the fucking deep road,

197
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 4: you know. And I remember the first night I did

198
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 4: my show, it went well, and that's.

199
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 2: When the reviewers came.

200
00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 4: They do reviews at at these like UK festivals, and

201
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 4: not that it's part of the UK, but the reviewers came,

202
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 4: so if you'd read the reviews, it would have seemed

203
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 4: like I was having a good time. But after that show,

204
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 4: everything every show went progressively worse and worse.

205
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:57,079
Speaker 2: I don't know what it was. I mean, first well,

206
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 2: I do know on some level what it was.

207
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:00,839
Speaker 4: I went and saw, you know, Tim Key, you know

208
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 4: who he is, like a really sort of artsy, like

209
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:08,320
Speaker 4: he's crazy hair, maybe very artistic, does a lot of

210
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 4: poems that he pulls out of his pocket like and

211
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 4: really an inspired performer. I when you saw him the

212
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,120
Speaker 4: first night and was like, oh god, this guy the

213
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 4: kind of guy that makes you feel jealous.

214
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 1: When you see that, you're like, oh fuck, this guy's

215
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: baby's doing new shit that I saw that and I

216
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:22,960
Speaker 1: was like, this guy's fucking so good.

217
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 2: Then the by the end of the week, tim Key.

218
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 4: The rumor was that he was having food thrown at

219
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 4: him at his shows. So that was like my saving grace, Like, okay,

220
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 4: tim Key, my artistic sort of jealousy inspirer is getting

221
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:43,000
Speaker 4: like deep Fried hagis costat in a long country I'm good, right,

222
00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,959
Speaker 4: But at the last show, and not only were they

223
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,440
Speaker 4: mean to me and not laughing at me, they were

224
00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 4: making they people would make fun of me on the

225
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 4: way home, like like unrelated people.

226
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 2: Not people at the show, just people just way. Yeah.

227
00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 4: I'd be walking back to telling people just be like

228
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,160
Speaker 4: pointing at me and laughing, Oh my.

229
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:06,560
Speaker 2: God, like head. May I prove my point that it

230
00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 2: was not well?

231
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 4: First of all, First of all, they the last show

232
00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,439
Speaker 4: I did. I was on stage and a guy got

233
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,920
Speaker 4: up and very similarly, he just screams next.

234
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, next is hard to get.

235
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: It's just I know how to cut back, come back

236
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: from Okay, this is an old comeback.

237
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, it's kind of BROI but you suck.

238
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:28,800
Speaker 1: I would say, if someone goes you suck, I would

239
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: go you swallow, go huger dick.

240
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:37,440
Speaker 2: With your butthole. I'd always like to be guaranteed. But

241
00:10:37,640 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 2: next is hard to I got.

242
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 1: I bombed opening up for Griz Rock. I love rock,

243
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 1: and I got I got a big next and I crumbled.

244
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 2: How can you not cry?

245
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 5: I remember what was this recently now?

246
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 2: I want to say eight or nine years ago.

247
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, he screamed next, and I just thought, I thought,

248
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 4: I hope I want you to die. Next, I want

249
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:06,200
Speaker 4: you to I want you crash into a brick wall

250
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 4: with your family in the car, catch on fire.

251
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 2: And die.

252
00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 4: And when I say I thought that, I mean I

253
00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:15,560
Speaker 4: screamed that into the microphone as loud as I could go.

254
00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 2: No, it does it.

255
00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 5: They were on your side there.

256
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,480
Speaker 4: So after that show, that was like the eighth bad

257
00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 4: show in a row. Bomb after jo after it was

258
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 4: like a crescendo of bombing. And next was the final one.

259
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,320
Speaker 4: And I was walking back to my hotel room and

260
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 4: I'd been being made fun of the whole weekend long

261
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:40,760
Speaker 4: and this is it was like one in the morning

262
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:45,000
Speaker 4: and this old man, this old like eighty year old man,

263
00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 4: stop me in the streets and he goes, He's like,

264
00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 4: what's your name? And I was like it's Moosha.

00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 2: He goes, what do you What are you doing in Ireland?

266

00:11:58,840 --> 00:11:59,840

00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 7: thank you for being here.

272
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:15,760
Speaker 4: Wow, and I was like basically, I was like thank you.

273
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,680
Speaker 4: You know, I'm like this whole in my mind, I'm

274
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 4: like this hole, No, he was just a man in

275
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 4: the street, okay, and I go this. Everything I said

276
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,640
Speaker 4: he was the guy said next.

277
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:32,559
Speaker 2: Came in my mind.

278
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 4: I was like wow this and I go thank you man,

279
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 4: and I'm thinking this re this reinterprets my whole experience here.

280
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 4: I thought that this was a bad place, that these

281
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,200
Speaker 4: were bad people, that I was having an alienating and

282
00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 4: antagonistic experience. But with this simple little bit of human kindness,

283
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 4: I now realized like I just had some bad luck.

284
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 4: I had a bad set or two, I met some

285
00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 4: bad people. Like this human to human interaction made me

286
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 4: reinterpret this whole trip. And I was like thank you,

287
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,640
Speaker 4: and I start walking away. I'm like a night sir.

288
00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 4: And he calls after me and he goes, hey, mosha,

289
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 4: and I turn around and goes I swear to God, He's.

290
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 5: Like, I'm giving you a finger, and it's like it was.

291
00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,640
Speaker 2: Like a fucking it was like you know those huts,

292
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 2: you know those things, fucking rude and true, like it

293
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 2: really happened.

294
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 4: It was such a psychedelic form of cruelty that I

295
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 4: couldn't even like, I couldn't even like learn a lesson

296
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 4: from it. It was just like a stone that I

297
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 4: put in my backpack full of human experiences.

298
00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: So he like gas lit you with this like overly.

299
00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 2: Complimentary, gushing thing. I couldn't. He really took the heart

300
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,439
Speaker 2: and then followed up with like.

301
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 4: A fucking play like frozen bar at the World series,

302
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 4: like I couldn't.

303
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:00,760
Speaker 2: I was astounded. I was in shock, and I had

304
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,440
Speaker 2: so un necessary And.

305
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,320
Speaker 4: This is after the eighth bomb in a row, and

306
00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 4: the worst one of all, this is my experience on

307
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:13,200
Speaker 4: the walk home. And here's the worst part I had

308
00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:15,840
Speaker 4: to By the way, I do know what was going

309
00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:20,360
Speaker 4: wrong for me comedically. I was a new comedian and

310
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: I didn't know how to pivot, and there was a

311
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 4: disconnect between what I would say and what I meant,

312
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 4: Like if I said something sarcastically, they would take it

313
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,800
Speaker 4: at face value. And maybe it was because they couldn't

314
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 4: translate my extreme like hipster bitch americanism, or maybe it

315
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,720
Speaker 4: was because I wasn't a sophisticated enough comedian to like

316
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 4: be able to give it over. But I remember I

317
00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 4: used to have this opener where I would often people

318
00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:52,680
Speaker 4: would I used to have like a weirder look, and

319
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 4: remember my haircut.

320
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,440
Speaker 2: Like the like the gittler. I called it the gay

321
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 2: hitler like it was. It's sort of similar to run

322
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 2: I've got going on, but it was more extreme for

323
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 2: the best twenty five years. That's very nice of you

324
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 2: to say, we don't drink, so you age, will you

325
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 2: look good and you do everything? That's true. It's a

326
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:09,920
Speaker 2: half black part. It's not the Jewish bird, that's right.

327
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 5: So all the people do take things literally, well, yeah, I.

328
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:13,920
Speaker 2: Would, they would.

329
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: I remember being also iron irony doesn't translate sometimes.

330
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 6: I was an Amsterdam and I was just like, I

331
00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 6: don't think women are funny either, And this woman's like.

332
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:22,720
Speaker 5: If she don't think women are funny, why was she

333
00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 5: on the stud in the front row?

334
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 4: Wow, well, you're American too, and there's already strikes against you.

335
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 2: There are.

336
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:31,920
Speaker 4: I would say the crowds in Ireland were unbelievably forgiving

337
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,800
Speaker 4: of Irish hackery and unbelievably stingy of anything American. You

338
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 4: were at such a deficit. But if you had, if

339
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,480
Speaker 4: you had an Irish accent, you could be straight up

340
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 4: doing road comedy from eighty one and they build.

341
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 1: It's not music, music's universal, right, comedy's cultural.

342
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 6: I remember I was in Albany and this was really bad.

343
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,320
Speaker 6: It was like one of my first headlining gigs and

344
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 6: I bombed pretty bad, and I got a call from

345
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 6: my agent and they're like.

346
00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 8: Oh boy, we're gonna switch was the opener, Oh boy, you.

347
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 2: Were the head I'm the host almost.

348
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,480
Speaker 1: My mom's so bad one time at a Catholic college

349
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,320
Speaker 1: that the principle of the school wrote an entire apology

350
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: for my set and my behavior and my agent, my

351
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: college agent fired me.

352
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 2: Like that's how hard I bought.

353
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:25,200
Speaker 5: I should think it's cool.

354
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 2: You know.

355
00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean she was like a quacka doo like whatever,

Speaker 1: She goes, I'm getting calls from the school blah blah blah,

359
00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:41,600
Speaker 1: help like this I don't need We're through. And I

360
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,920
Speaker 1: remember being like so heartbroken. This is like I'm not

361
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:49,680

Speaker 1: to do an hour clean. I didn't have five minutes

363
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: of anything, let alone like an hour of clean. Catholic

364
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 1: school approved. She was also r and Doug great to

365
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 1: play they're very they're very rigid, they're very UPTIGHTND references.

366
00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 5: They don't know who Judy Garland.

367
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:09,679

Speaker 2: A lot of Judy Garland, you guys are doing.

00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:57,560
Speaker 1: then my sister pointed it out. She's like, oh, Dad, awesome,

473
00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:59,359
Speaker 1: you're wearing your hearing aid. And then he took it

474
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,399
Speaker 1: out and he never it back in. I'm so like

475
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: a shame. It's a shame around it.

476
00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,360
Speaker 2: My parents were no offense. Your dad really deaf.

477
00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:09,600
Speaker 5: Well you grew up in that culture, but they were.

478
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 4: But they were actually deaf, like a hearing aid wouldn't

479
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:13,880
Speaker 4: have helped. But my dad was the same way.

480
00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 1: Well, I mean one year was there's different levels for

481
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:17,840
Speaker 1: deftness and blindness.

482
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:20,639
Speaker 2: What I'm not deaf, kidding, he's not. He wasn't asl

483
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 2: or Haitian sl or whatever. I wonder if they what

484
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 2: they use in Haiti. I bet there's no hospitals in Haiti.

485
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 4: I bet you they use ASL and Haiti. That'd be

486
00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 4: my guest. My guess is at the US ASL and Haiti.

487
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:31,600
Speaker 3: They don't you.

488
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:34,199
Speaker 2: You're just like on you You're just pointing at stuff.

489
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 2: And I've been there. Those are hearing people and get here.

490
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:41,760
Speaker 3: Wait.

491
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 2: Wait, so what's the story. Your parents were never married.

492
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 4: My parents were married. They were when you were one

493
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 4: for a long time. They divorced when I was nine

494
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 4: months old and my mom left. I have one brother,

495
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,160
Speaker 4: one brother. I have a half sister, a half brother

496
00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 4: and a step sister.

497
00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 2: The brother is a full brother. So you were the

498
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 2: second kid. I was the second and then they called

499
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:02,439
Speaker 2: it quits when once they met me, they were like,

500
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:06,160
Speaker 2: this isn't working. We're out. And I moved to Oakland

501
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:10,119
Speaker 2: from Queen's and when my dad, okay, parents are together.

539
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 1: You were coping with a depression. It wasn't drugs to

540
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:48,960
Speaker 1: like explore consciousness.

541
00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 6: Well, how much can you explore consciousness when you're fourteen

542
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 6: doing acid just trying to have fun in art class?

543
00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 3: Right?

544
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,200
Speaker 2: Or like, I don't know.

545
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: You're coming of age and you're you're figuring out your

546
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 1: interview as an adult, and you know, well, the way

547
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: that that's true.

548
00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 4: The truth is that I was born in uh an

549
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,240
Speaker 4: outsider in like five different cultures. I was white in Oakland.

550
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 4: I was hearing in a deaf family. I was a

551
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,480
Speaker 4: secular kid in the Hasidic world, and vice versa.

552
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,840
Speaker 2: And mom, your mom was not hissiting, No.

553
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,000
Speaker 4: Just my mom's fully secular and stole us away from

554
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,159
Speaker 4: my dad and raised us like regular kids, public school,

555
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,640
Speaker 4: just fully secular life. And I would literally fly back

556
00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,520
Speaker 4: to New York six weeks a year and kind of

557
00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,640
Speaker 4: like cosplay as Heavy of the Milkman for.

558
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,119
Speaker 2: Six weeks a year. Like it was. It was a Yiddish.

559
00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,720
Speaker 4: Speaking community in Brooklyn. It wasn't an Orthodox community. It

560
00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:42,520
Speaker 4: was an ultra Hasidic community. We used to play dodgeball

561
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 4: between the Hasidic kids and like between the ultra Orthodox

562
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 4: kids that was my team and the actually religious year

563
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 4: you have the oh yeah, I would put them on

564
00:25:51,680 --> 00:25:53,120
Speaker 4: at the airport because my dad was.

565
00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:59,080
Speaker 1: Oh so you would cosplay yeah as like deeply religious dude,

566
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,520
Speaker 1: I just when you were hanging out with dad, yeah

567
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: and everything, and the kids.

568
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,679
Speaker 5: Would make fun of you for not knowing.

569
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, so you anywhere anywhere I was.

570
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:14,840
Speaker 6: And that's part of the fascination of Judaism, right, because

571
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:16,680
Speaker 6: you were never accepted into that way.

572
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 2: Do you mean why I like it now? I think so?

573
00:26:19,359 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 3: Really?

574
00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 2: I think I mean I got cousins, dude, for real

575
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:23,040
Speaker 2: that have.

576
00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 4: Eastern European accents that are second generation American in Brooklyn,

577
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 4: born in America, and they sound like a doctor Jivago like.

578
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,719
Speaker 2: Their parents.

579
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,919
Speaker 4: Their parents don't have Eastern European accents because their parents

580
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:41,400
Speaker 4: were immigrants kids, and so immigrants will tell your kids, hey,

581
00:26:41,400 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 4: don't be immigranty don't don't betray or be American. So

582
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 4: they'd send them to they would sound like Americans. But

583
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 4: then by the time they had kids, they would be

584
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:53,520
Speaker 4: like comfortable, they would be comfortable in the in this country,

585
00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:55,199
Speaker 4: and they would send them to only Yidish speaking.

586
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,480
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, I can't even read Hebrew. I can't. Yeah,

587
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 2: I mean that was my problem. Yeah, I couldn't even

588
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 2: read Hebrew. Oh yeah, that's big.

589
00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 4: And they I would have these are English Yiddish as

590
00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:09,040
Speaker 4: a first language speakers, and I can't even read Hebrew.

591
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 4: It was it was a fucking nightmare. And so when

592
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 4: I found drugs just to answer the question, I found

593
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,119
Speaker 4: for the first time, not that I fit in, but

594
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 4: that fitting in didn't matter anymore, like all the differences

595
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,879
Speaker 4: that I'd ever experienced, like disintegrated, and I.

596
00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 2: You when you were twelve thirteen, you're coming of age

597
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 2: and you're depressed. I guess I was depressed.

598
00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 4: I was angry. I had oppositional definers, conduct disorders.

599
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,920
Speaker 1: Smart and you don't feel like you fit in how

600
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:35,800
Speaker 1: was I was school? Were you good at school?

601
00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 2: Oh? No?

602
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:41,199
Speaker 1: So school struggling, eighth grade dropout? So when did you

603
00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: start doing a ton of drugs?

604
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 2: Twelve? And when did you go to bad kids School? Thirteen?

605
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 2: And when did you stop doing drugs? Fifteen? Almost sixteen?

606
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 1: Okay, so's twelve to sixteen. It's chaos, pure chaos. But

607
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: what drugs were you doing?

608
00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,640
Speaker 4: Just a lot of acid and mushrooms and alcohol and

609
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 4: weed and nothing fun.

610
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,960
Speaker 2: I mean, something exciting. Cocain? No, uh uh, meth.

611
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 4: I feel like I always disappoint people and they ask

612
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,399
Speaker 4: me this question heron. No, No, it's a little bit

613
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:07,720
Speaker 4: of math, a.

614
00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:08,199
Speaker 2: Little bit of math.

615
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 1: But I mean you were self anesthetizing. You weren't exploring consciousness.

616
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 1: It wasn't for sure, It wasn't a good part.

617
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 4: I would take acid and stare at a pylon at

618
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 4: a bart station for eight hours.

619
00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 3: You were going through it.

00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 1: support you need, your wife, your kid, blah blah blah.

630
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:46,240
Speaker 1: Would you try in a therapeutic setting, any type of

631
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: therapeutic psychedelic I would cry, like the ketamine clinic or

632
00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 1: the ayahuasca retrieve.

633
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, I would do coke with you at a bar.

634
00:28:56,280 --> 00:28:59,600
Speaker 2: You would shut the fuck just for fun. Okay, let's

635
00:28:59,600 --> 00:28:59,840
Speaker 2: do it.

636
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 4: I thought very seriously about doing psychedelics again, and I

637
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 4: was I had decided, right, tosh I.

638
00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:09,800
Speaker 1: Because I don't think you are the same person you

639
00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: were twelve, thirteen, fourteen years old.

640
00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 5: I don't need them right now.

641
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 1: The forty five year old Mosha is different than twelve

642
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: year old struggling I'm cosplaying as a Hasidic kid.

643
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:22,440
Speaker 2: I'm the white kid.

644
00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 6: Okay, but can I just say my experience at Oakland

645
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:28,040
Speaker 6: School of Mosha's personality is when he gets into something,

646
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 6: he gets really into it.

647
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 5: Like when he got into taping. We would have like.

648
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,960
Speaker 6: Sixteen different packages of vapes from England and London and

649
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 6: everything color.

650
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, like true, but he gets.

651
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 6: He has a bag of vape that he would travel in.

652
00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:44,719
Speaker 2: I don't think that's really true.

653
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,960
Speaker 5: But as he puts this in in that he no,

654
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:49,080
Speaker 5: it's your journey.

655
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 2: Hold on, I'm gonna do it ones in a one breaker.

656
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,920
Speaker 2: But that's the grand I'm just saying, like, that's.

657
00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 4: The grand mind fuck of being sober and getting sober

658
00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:02,960
Speaker 4: young in a in a variety based model, which I

659
00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,120
Speaker 4: think is the best model. Actually, if you're a drug addict,

660
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:09,680
Speaker 4: is to quit completely. But the mind fuck is thirty

661
00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 4: years later, it's pretty hard to make a case that

662
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,880
Speaker 4: you're not a completely different person. I mean, it's a

663
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 4: little different if you.

664
00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 5: Have the addictive quality.

665
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,400
Speaker 4: But it's a little But it's it's a mind fuck

666
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 4: because it's not. It's obviously true that I'm a completely

667
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 4: different person in every possible set of criteria. But it's

668
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 4: also true that people who have been profoundly transformed by

669
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,360
Speaker 4: sobriety decide to take a psychedelic thirty years later, take it,

670
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,520
Speaker 4: and then they start drinking, and then their lives fall

671
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 4: apart and then they're all fucked out. Both things are true,

672
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 4: Like I could be fine, I could be fucked I

673
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 4: really don't know, and there's one way to find out,

674
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:44,960
Speaker 4: and it's a kind of third rail, it's a kind

675
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,160
Speaker 4: of it's a it's a parachute jump. And that's the

676
00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:51,520
Speaker 4: scary part. And I've thought about it, and it's it's difficult.

677
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 4: It's a difficult decision.

678
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 2: To your daughter's in college and fucking go to the

679
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 2: do DMT would.

680
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,479
Speaker 5: That's a great idea. Wait till she's in college.

681
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 1: Okay, the girls, what if she gets a hot run,

682
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 1: you're out.

683
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 6: Oh. Most had a colonoscopy recently and he was on

684
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 6: some kind of drug and it was so fun.

685
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 5: He was just walking through this. I'm like, where's this guy?

686
00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

687
00:31:12,640 --> 00:31:16,760
Speaker 2: They call that free lapse, right, free lapse. That was awesome, man.

688
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,240
Speaker 5: But the but it only lasted like fourteen minutes.

689
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,959
Speaker 2: It was so fun, so scientific.

690
00:31:21,080 --> 00:31:24,280
Speaker 4: I wish I had had a kind of incompetent and

691
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 4: Estheti's aologist, because you know, they tied it so perfectly

692
00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:31,800
Speaker 4: that by the time I was in the parking lot,

693
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 4: I was already sobering up. Yeah, like, give me a

694
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 4: little give me twenty minutes, dude, let me enjoy this.

695
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 5: But it wasn't. It was a lightness.

696
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 6: But I think Mosha decided when we were having a

697
00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:42,000
Speaker 6: kid and I was pregnant.

698
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 5: No, this isn't really worth it. Well to go experiment.

699
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 2: I was going to do it day you drop her

700
00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:48,920
Speaker 2: off a college? Yeah?

701
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:49,280
Speaker 5: Could?

702
00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 2: That's all right? Fun because then if he goes off

703
00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 2: the d bend, you could just be like, later, dude, you.

704
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 5: Have fun with him or whatever.

705
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,040
Speaker 2: Years Well that's so int I mean, if he goes

706
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:01,560
Speaker 2: to like Arowin Downer, I'm no part of me is

707
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 2: worried about that.

708
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 5: I'm worried about him.

709
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,400
Speaker 6: My biggest worry about Mosh is him going to a

710
00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 6: bar where there's like a mixologist and him wanting to

711
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 6: try every single different sweet.

712
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,280
Speaker 5: Cocting, you know, like he'd be like what is gin taste?

713
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:15,000
Speaker 5: Like what is tequilan?

714
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:16,920
Speaker 4: I don't want to drink. I have no I mean,

715
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 4: I have no desire to drink. Just a person that's

716
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,240
Speaker 4: been sober around everybody, every one of our peers and friends.

717
00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 4: I will tell you that the people on alcohol, I

718
00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 4: know that they're annoying. They're the most annoyed of all

719
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:30,960
Speaker 4: the drunks out of all and they the most like,

720
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 4: they don't look healthy, they aren't fun to talk to.

721
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:34,880
Speaker 2: Drunk is whack.

722
00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 5: They're like screaming in your face. They suck.

723
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 4: They suck, and they don't notice any social cues except one.

724
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,479
Speaker 4: There's one social cue that drunk people notice, which is

725
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:45,840
Speaker 4: you telling them that them being drunk is a little

726
00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 4: too much for them. Then they're like, oh, hyper notice,

727
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 4: Like they get really sensitive, like but if you if

728
00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,360
Speaker 4: you give subtle cues, they won't take it. Coke not fun,

729
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:59,200
Speaker 4: not fun, but orders of magnitude more fun than drinking,

730
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,200
Speaker 4: and then it then it becomes the fun drugs. I

731
00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 4: love being around people on psychedelics, like couldn't That's my

732
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 4: favorite because they're fun to talk to, They're cool to

733
00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 4: be around.

734
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,000
Speaker 2: What do you think about California sober? What did you

735
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 2: just start smoking a little grass?

736
00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 3: Uh?

737
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 2: You think that's bad too?

738
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 3: Huh?

739
00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 2: It's weed? You are?

740
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,320
Speaker 4: You would be a great like drug and alcohol counselor.

741
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 2: I think it would be, yeah, because they think it's

742
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 2: too much.

743
00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 6: Why would the weed not make Why would he not

744
00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 6: have his obsessive nature with the weed, all the swivers,

745
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 6: all the different edibles.

746
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:36,600
Speaker 4: Millionaire dude, I have this memory. Hello, it's so funny.

747
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 4: I haven't thought about this in so many years, but

748
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 4: I have this memory. The first rehab I ever went

749
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 4: to his place called thunder Road in Oakland, which doesn't

750
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 4: exist anymore. I was in this outpatient like like for

751
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 4: first time offenders, like youth youth rehab after school thing,

752
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 4: and this guy was giving a lecture like that. He's

753
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 4: like new drugs, drugs destroy your life, they make you

754
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 4: you'd never be successful. And I remember, I go, what

755
00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,440
Speaker 4: about Jimmy Hendrix man and he goes, he looks at

756
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,320
Speaker 4: me totally sincerely, goes, think about the music he could

757
00:34:05,320 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 4: have made if he didn't do drugs.

758
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 5: He could have done it for longer.

759
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 2: That's true, he did. He made the wrong argumentment. Guess what.

760
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 1: I went to Willie Nelson's ninetieth birthday show three years ago.

761
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 2: The guy's still.

762
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:27,960
Speaker 1: Touring and doing more drugs than you could ever imagine.

763
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,879
Speaker 5: Okay, well let me ask you this. Don't you think

764
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 5: some people's brain chemistry.

765
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 3: Yeah?

766
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,239
Speaker 1: Absolutely. I think addiction is actually genetic and it runs

767
00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: in the family. So if your if your dad, grandpa

768
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: had any shit, it's.

769
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:38,680
Speaker 2: Probably not worth it.

770
00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 6: And I do think sometimes people can have like one

771
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 6: or two drinks and they just really can't handle alcohol.

772
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 2: I think that too.

773
00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:44,359
Speaker 3: I don't.

774
00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 1: I also don't think I think there's I think that

775
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:49,440
Speaker 1: alcohol and psychedelics are not equivalent.

776
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,439
Speaker 2: I think they work in but.

777
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:54,000
Speaker 5: That's not to me.

778
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 2: But here's the thing. You might not understand it. But

779
00:34:56,480 --> 00:34:59,240
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I don't loop alcohol in.

780
00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,160
Speaker 4: With Here's the thing you might not understand. You're one

781
00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 4: hundred percent correct that mushrooms, psychedelics, all of that, they're

782
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 4: qualitatively different than alcohol and every other truly.

783
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 2: Addictive, physically addictive.

784
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 4: Drug in that you know, if you kidnapped your grandma

785
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:18,799
Speaker 4: and and you know, chained her in a basement and

786
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 4: made her drink alcohol all day, every day for a year,

787
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 4: she would she wouldn't be able to detox. About medical intervention,

788
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:29,040
Speaker 4: every single person would become addicted to those things. But

789
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 4: the thing about being sober, it's much it's more of

790
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:35,839
Speaker 4: a like psychic thing. It's like you have a I

791
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 4: call it a I think of it as a membrane.

792
00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:43,000
Speaker 4: There's like a super thin membrane between sobriety and non sobriety.

793
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,839
Speaker 4: Right once you pierce the membrane, you're on the other

794
00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:49,280
Speaker 4: side of the membrane. You're no longer you no longer

795
00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 4: have the like decades or years of momentum and stricture

796
00:35:56,360 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 4: between you in the sober world and you in the

797
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 4: non sober world. So it's a lot easier to go

798
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:08,080
Speaker 4: from from mushrooms and ketamine to drinking a cocktail after

799
00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:10,440
Speaker 4: dinner to drinking a cocktail every night to becoming an

800
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,839
Speaker 4: alcoholic than it is to go from I don't drink

801
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:14,400
Speaker 4: at all. I don't do any drugs. There's like this,

802
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,960
Speaker 4: there's a there's a line, like I said, a third rail,

803
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:19,880
Speaker 4: and you have to get past a third rail, and

804
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,640
Speaker 4: it's it's scary in that I don't think I am

805
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 4: genetically I don't believe myself anymore to be a genetic alcoholic.

806
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,120
Speaker 2: I don't think that. I don't know, but I don't

807
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 2: think that that's true.

808
00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,839
Speaker 5: You're certainly very lucid from being sober. I like it.

809
00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 4: I don't have a bad life that I need to

810
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 4: improve upon. But I do feel disappointment that I never

811
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 4: got to do psychedelics in the way that I could

812
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:43,399
Speaker 4: have done them, because I do think that they're one

813
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:46,560
Speaker 4: of the like gifts of the universe for the human experience,

814
00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:49,279
Speaker 4: like childbirth, which you'll never experience.

815
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 5: Like me and I don't really experience it.

816
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,120
Speaker 2: They like, I mean having a kid, you want a kid?

817
00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,799
Speaker 2: I got to be right now, and I'm like, I'm

818
00:36:57,840 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 2: like looking to get rid of this thing.

819
00:36:59,080 --> 00:37:18,359
Speaker 3: After a week with Aridre, with Aridrey.

820
00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 6: Since Eric's contractually obligated, I'm sure to talk about bombing.

821
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 5: I have another one.

822
00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 2: Give it to me.

823
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:24,760
Speaker 5: Well this isn't really on stage.

824
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:28,160

00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,320
Speaker 2: Leave him? Leave DJ Doug Pound alone.

943
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:41,239
Speaker 6: Chris Rock, Okay, I'll tell you something. You know who

944
00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,400
Speaker 6: else is intimidating? While most of thinks of his last bomb.

945
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 6: I remember once I auditioned for Seinfeld for to be

946
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:48,840
Speaker 6: a co host on some show he was producing, and

947
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,680
Speaker 6: they told me before I went in the room, They're like, Okay,

948
00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,200
Speaker 6: don't do any bits for Seinfeld. It's like a thing.

949
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 6: Everybody's always trying to do bits for him. You know,

950
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,920
Speaker 6: just talk to him. He's he's really into people, not

951
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,319
Speaker 6: to comedians, not doing bits. Oh yeah, I got you.

952
00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:02,759
Speaker 6: The second I saw him, I just started rambling. It

953
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:15,640
Speaker 6: couldn't help it. I literally remembering him getting a backpack

954
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,600
Speaker 6: because it seemed weird that he had a backpack and

955
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:19,080
Speaker 6: leaving during my interview.

956
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:20,920
Speaker 5: Because it was with a few people.

957
00:43:21,440 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 6: It was for like Tom Papa had a had a

958
00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,800
Speaker 6: TV show he was hosting and he needed a sidekick,

959
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 6: and Jerry was Love's Tom Papa and he was the producer.

960
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,919
Speaker 5: I forget what it's called, like the marriage ref maybe

961
00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:32,480
Speaker 5: it was something.

962
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 1: Oh so he's just producing. But they were like, don't prod,

963
00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:36,600
Speaker 1: don't bit it up with him.

964
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:40,200
Speaker 5: Yah. It was a very small just Tom.

965
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, Tom and Jerry. You went in there like a

966
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 2: cat instant girl.

967
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 6: No, but people have that, especially like if you're like

968
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,840
Speaker 6: a hierarch hierarchical type of person. Especially, I mean, my

969
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 6: values have changed since I moved here, but you know,

970
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 6: I used to be obsessed with becoming successful, and I

971
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 6: was very ambitious. And when you meet someone who is

972
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 6: above you, it comes comes from wanting a career. You know,

973
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,239
Speaker 6: when I was little, my parents were divorced very young,

974
00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:13,279
Speaker 6: and my dad was abusive to my mom, and I

975
00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:17,040
Speaker 6: had no happy place except the theater. And I grew

976
00:44:17,120 --> 00:44:20,480
Speaker 6: up as a child actress, and that was, yeah, in

977
00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,719
Speaker 6: theater in Chicago, and you know, that was kind of

978
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:26,759
Speaker 6: my happy place. And so I think, I mean, if

979
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:28,279
Speaker 6: you're asking where it comes from, this is the very

980
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 6: truncated version, is like, oh, when I'm when I'm in theater,

981
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:35,799
Speaker 6: which translated into comedy, which you know, it's like, this

982
00:44:35,840 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 6: is where I.

983
00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:38,919
Speaker 2: Can tell them the agent story. This is a good bomb.

984
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,120
Speaker 2: This is really it's so funny, it's so good.

985
00:44:41,600 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 5: You don't have to tell them when I was in

986
00:44:44,320 --> 00:44:45,960
Speaker 5: New York. So, you know, my whole life, I'm like,

987
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:46,760
Speaker 5: I have to be an actress.

988
00:44:46,760 --> 00:44:48,160
Speaker 6: I have to be an actress is my only hope

989
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:50,960
Speaker 6: for anything, you know, and also wanting to like be

990
00:44:51,360 --> 00:44:54,520
Speaker 6: surpass your family of being poor, and you know, it's

991
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:57,520
Speaker 6: a way out, and but I, you know, I finally

992
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,359
Speaker 6: got close. I lived in New York for five years

993
00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 6: and I finally got close to getting an agent. And

994
00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 6: I had like a third callback and I had to

995
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:06,400
Speaker 6: do this monologue. And I did this monologue of Darlene

996
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,560
Speaker 6: from Balming Gilead, and I had watched Laurie Metcalf do it,

997
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:11,880
Speaker 6: and I kind of was doing an impression of her.

998
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 6: But it was good, and like I ended up crying

999
00:45:15,440 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 6: in the monologue. And I remember I left the agent

1000
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,040
Speaker 6: interview and I was like, I can't believe I just

1001
00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 6: killed that so hard, you know, like and he goes,

1002
00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,600
Speaker 6: he was like that was amazing. Call me at three

1003
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,560
Speaker 6: o'clock and I'll let you know if we're going to

1004
00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 6: represent you. And it's really hard to get an agent

1005
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 6: in New York. It's just like especially for me when

1006
00:45:30,160 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 6: I was starting out. So anyway, I call him at

1007
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:34,920
Speaker 6: three o'clock. I'm going to Hunter College. I'm in the payphones.

1008
00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:36,399
Speaker 6: You know, this is a long time ago. I put

1009
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:37,200
Speaker 6: my quarter in.

1010
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:39,320
Speaker 5: And he's like, hey, Natasha.

1011
00:45:39,400 --> 00:45:41,040
Speaker 6: You know, I was like waiting for the clock to

1012
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,319
Speaker 6: dig in like a phone bank, and he's like.

1013
00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,120
Speaker 8: Hey Natasha. So I talked about it with all the agents,

1014
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:50,560
Speaker 8: and we've come to the conclusion that you're too short

1015
00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 8: to be an actress. He goes, you know, Holly Hunter

1016
00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:56,120
Speaker 8: did it, but she's the only one we can even

1017
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:58,480
Speaker 8: think of, so I'm sorry. We just don't think you'll

1018
00:45:58,520 --> 00:45:59,200
Speaker 8: ever become an.

1019
00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,319
Speaker 6: Actress, so it's preposterous.

1020
00:46:01,800 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 5: I broke down physically. I got on my knees. I

1021
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:07,160
Speaker 5: was like heaving because this was.

1022
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:10,479
Speaker 2: Like my entire you thought that was your big break life.

1023
00:46:10,640 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 2: I mean, it's over. It was over, I know.

1024
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,520
Speaker 5: I mean I was probably twenty, but like I had

1025
00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:16,560
Speaker 5: had so many.

1026
00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 2: It feels more.

1027
00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 1: It feels worse then because you're too naive. Just realized,

1028
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:21,439
Speaker 1: like who the fuck are.

1029
00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 5: These people say it like that? And like I tell me,

1030
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 5: it's impossible, and like.

1031
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 4: Like kind of cruel to the kind of casual cruel

1032
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:33,000
Speaker 4: to somebody that's that's ruling over a tiny kingdom, you know.

1033
00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:36,359
Speaker 1: If that he's just a fucking Wackaoho Jones, like all

1034
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:40,120
Speaker 1: these wacked who's In the beginning, you think like the power,

1035
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 1: these calm and these open my comics. I thought like,

1036
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:44,879
Speaker 1: oh god, this guy just yelled at me because he's

1037
00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,839
Speaker 1: a lunatic. Oh fuck, maybe I fucked up. And then

1038
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,040
Speaker 1: you're like, who the fuck were those people? They were

1039
00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:51,399
Speaker 1: a bunch of maniacs, it was like.

1040
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:53,719
Speaker 6: And they're just feeding off of like trying to whip

1041
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:56,879
Speaker 6: their you know, be superior over all.

1042
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 2: Oh.

1043
00:46:57,520 --> 00:46:59,560
Speaker 4: But then you like, she's on her knees crying in

1044
00:46:59,600 --> 00:47:01,560
Speaker 4: a pay phone in New York thinking it's over, and

1045
00:47:01,560 --> 00:47:04,200
Speaker 4: what like five years later you found stand up and like.

1046
00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:07,240
Speaker 5: And then twenty years later, I'm still really trying.

1047
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:10,200
Speaker 2: Are you kidding?

1048
00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,960
Speaker 5: No, I'm just saying it never really even the roast.

1049
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 6: Like after I did the roast of Justin Bieber, I

1050
00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 6: was like, this is it?

1051
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:19,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, And then like I remember the next.

1052
00:47:19,520 --> 00:47:22,640
Speaker 6: Day there was this whole like thing where like all

1053
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,880
Speaker 6: my agents left CIA and went to Uta. There was

1054
00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:28,480
Speaker 6: like this whole thing that happened, and nothing really happened

1055
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:30,240
Speaker 6: from the roast, and I was like I was thinking,

1056
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,800
Speaker 6: like I'm gonna be in movies like Amy Schumer and

1057
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:35,280
Speaker 6: nothing really happened. But then it's like ten years later,

1058
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,439
Speaker 6: the roasts are viral on TikTok and I sell out

1059
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:41,960
Speaker 6: and it's like you just don't know how there was like.

1060
00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:44,560
Speaker 5: A re yeah, and you know you can't.

1061
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,680
Speaker 1: The Deftones sold out the Key of Forum and the

1062
00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:50,520
Speaker 1: Death Tones I grew up listening to, but like they're cool,

1063
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,279
Speaker 1: like like teenagers listened to that. They had some like

1064
00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 1: they had like a reth they had like a re

1065
00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 1: they like work on TikTok for like the new Emo Waves.

1066
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,560
Speaker 5: Well, my point is you can't. You can never. You

1067
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,840
Speaker 5: can never like control how something's going to.

1068
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:05,520
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1069
00:48:05,680 --> 00:48:09,000
Speaker 1: Also culture, you never know, like the thing that you

1070
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,240
Speaker 1: think is some throwaway thing. It's like that with jokes,

1071
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:13,279
Speaker 1: Like you think the throwaway joke is like whatever, and

1072
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:15,040
Speaker 1: then it gets a big laugh and then like the

1073
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,040
Speaker 1: thing you're like, dude, I'm the next Richard Prior, and

1074
00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:18,440
Speaker 1: then you fall flat on your face.

1075
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:21,279
Speaker 2: It feels just like, well, there's no, there's no, there's

1076
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 2: no it's unpredictable, there's no there.

1077
00:48:23,480 --> 00:48:25,560
Speaker 4: I always think of it like the whole, this whole thing,

1078
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,440
Speaker 4: and life is like this in general, but Hollywood certainly

1079
00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,040
Speaker 4: is like this ladder and the problem is you're always

1080
00:48:32,080 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 4: looking at the wrong above you going oh, if that's

1081
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,960
Speaker 4: the wrong, that will make me whole. And then you

1082
00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:38,560
Speaker 4: work and you work and you work and you work,

1083
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 4: and finally you know you grab the wrung and you

1084
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,360
Speaker 4: pull yourself up to that wrong And the moment you

1085
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,359
Speaker 4: get up to the wrong, you look up and you're like, oh, ship,

1086
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,719
Speaker 4: there's another one right there, and that becomes a thing

1087
00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:50,080
Speaker 4: and like Brad Brad Pitts somewhere up the ladder. Yeah,

1088
00:48:50,120 --> 00:48:52,920
Speaker 4: you know, looking at Timothy shallow my shoes, going like

1089
00:48:52,920 --> 00:48:53,759
Speaker 4: how did I get last?

1090
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:58,200
Speaker 2: You know, and that's like, yeah, that's just life. You

1091
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 2: never get there the ladder. Yeah, like fashionable, Like those

1092
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 2: shoes are cool.

1093
00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 5: They're like a cool swing like small shoes too.

1094
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:11,440
Speaker 2: I was a real man Chinese. It says like there

1095
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:12,160
Speaker 2: isn't bad.

1096
00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:15,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's why you should have a children, because I

1097
00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 6: have children, Because once you have a child, you don't

1098
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,240
Speaker 6: care about the ladder anymore.

1099
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 4: It is true, No, I mean that's saying that is true.

1100
00:49:21,920 --> 00:49:24,040
Speaker 4: But there's also a caveat to that too. You have

1101
00:49:24,080 --> 00:49:26,040
Speaker 4: a child, you're on that ladder, you go, you go,

1102
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:27,400
Speaker 4: what's my purpose? What's my purpose?

1103
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:29,439
Speaker 2: Life? Ladder? Then you have a kid, you go, Okay, yeah,

1104
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:29,719
Speaker 2: I know.

1105
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 4: My purpose is it's to care for this thing and

1106
00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 4: teach it to have a good life, and teach it

1107
00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:36,120
Speaker 4: ethics and values and feed it and protect it, and

1108
00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:37,799
Speaker 4: you're like, this is the point of my life. But

1109
00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 4: I think about that. I'm not there yet. I think

1110
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 4: about all the time that that. Then they turn eighteen

1111
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:45,480
Speaker 4: and you're like, okay, bye, and they do drugs.

1112
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,719
Speaker 2: Then you die. You do drugs and die. That's good

1113
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:50,920
Speaker 2: that it's not too bad. I think of it. It's

1114
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,239
Speaker 2: not too bad. Yeah, I'm with you on that. And

1115
00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 2: then I got a dog, you got a cat. That's enough.

1116
00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:55,719
Speaker 2: It's enough.

1117
00:49:57,360 --> 00:49:59,360
Speaker 5: Has always like, stop talking people into having children.

1118
00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:02,279
Speaker 4: It's never were successfully, it's never worked. I mean, people

1119
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,800
Speaker 4: shouldn't have kids that don't want kids because it's they shouldn't.

1120
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:05,600
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's not.

1163
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:41,400
Speaker 1: a little you.

1164
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,839
Speaker 2: I think that kind of destiny fulfillment stuff. I don't

1165
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:46,000
Speaker 2: buy it. I'm not into it.

1166
00:51:46,040 --> 00:51:51,160
Speaker 1: Well, you had a very specific, uh tornado of a childhood.

1167
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:53,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's got my genetics, but she doesn't have my circumstances,

1168
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:56,239
Speaker 2: and I think that that that that that makes a

1169
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:57,720
Speaker 2: big difference. She's gonna be wild.

1170
00:51:57,719 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 4: I know she's gonna be wild, and I have to

1171
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 4: resist that temptation with her of when I see a

1172
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:04,200
Speaker 4: little bit of like thing that was like me, of

1173
00:52:04,280 --> 00:52:07,719
Speaker 4: then superimposing my trauma onto her future. It's like she's

1174
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:09,759
Speaker 4: her own person and she's got her own destiny and

1175
00:52:10,160 --> 00:52:12,680
Speaker 4: I'm not. I'm not setting her destiny. She's not on

1176
00:52:12,719 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 4: my road.

1177
00:52:13,280 --> 00:52:15,680
Speaker 6: I had Chelsea Handler's book laying out yesterday and it's

1178
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:18,160
Speaker 6: like her in a ski outfit with a martini, and

1179
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:22,000

1185
00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 6: even think of I just looked at the thing, like, oh,

1186
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 6: there's Chelsea, but like I wasn't really thinking, like my

1187
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:44,200

Speaker 4: kid with a lot of sarcasm. Obviously, that's the way

1268
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:01,240
Speaker 4: we communicate. We were at a friend's house, a soft

1269
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:04,000
Speaker 4: hippie friend's house, and the that we ordered pizza for

1275
00:56:22,640 --> 00:56:23,680
Speaker 6: of like a nice mom.

1276
00:56:24,719 --> 00:56:26,359
Speaker 4: It was an example of a kid that wasn't being

1277
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:29,279
Speaker 4: raised with sarcasm as the primary communicative form. Our kid

1278
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:31,040
Speaker 4: was like, now shut up, mom, give me the pizza.

1279
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:33,000
Speaker 4: And this little innocent child.

1280
00:56:32,960 --> 00:56:36,720
Speaker 1: He was like, yeah, any other bums. Your bomb story

1281
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:38,759
Speaker 1: was like three seconds You're like, I.

1282
00:56:38,719 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 2: Want to do a show. This guy wrap it up.

1283
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 6: The agent told me, I got the agent no, and

1284
00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:47,720
Speaker 6: then they switched me with the opener that that's happened

1285
00:56:47,760 --> 00:56:48,200
Speaker 6: to me twice.

1286
00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:50,319
Speaker 5: That happened to me in Vegas too. And here's the thing.

1287
00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:52,799
Speaker 6: The guy who they switched me with in Vegas, he

1288
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:54,920
Speaker 6: was literally doing Bill Hicks material.

1289
00:56:58,320 --> 00:56:59,120
Speaker 5: Do you see him do it?

1290
00:56:59,239 --> 00:56:59,359
Speaker 3: No?

1291
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:01,560
Speaker 2: What do you mean? Wasn't there that works?

1292
00:57:01,600 --> 00:57:01,719
Speaker 3: Though?

1293
00:57:02,440 --> 00:57:05,400
Speaker 4: I heard about this Italian comedian who he was the

1294
00:57:05,400 --> 00:57:08,040
Speaker 4: biggest comedian in Italy every year he who put out

1295
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:12,600
Speaker 4: this like searing, amazing hour of social commentary. And then

1296
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,160
Speaker 4: the Internet hit and they started to see comedians on

1297
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:17,880
Speaker 4: YouTube and all of a sudden they were like, wait,

1298
00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:22,360
Speaker 4: this dude just does George Carlin. And like before the Internet,

1299
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:25,960
Speaker 4: it was like a perfect creep. Nobody would know, all right, yeah,

1300
00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 4: we do gotta go. But okay, here's my other big bomb.

1301
00:57:29,080 --> 00:57:32,000
Speaker 4: This is really where my career changed. Was I was

1302
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:35,080
Speaker 4: young in my career. I was about maybe five or

1303
00:57:35,120 --> 00:57:38,080
Speaker 4: six years in and I got into laugha Palooza, the

1304

1313
00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,680
Speaker 4: other white comic everybody else. It doesn't even occur to me.

1314
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 4: They were not in the era where it's like inappropriate

1315
00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:10,000
Speaker 4: for a white comedian to try.

1316
00:58:09,840 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 2: To squeeze into a black comedy festival. It's just like,

1317
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:13,280
Speaker 2: let me make it.

1318
00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 4: There's one other comedian called weed Man, and he would

1319
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:20,320
Speaker 4: put on the other white the diversity, the DEI, we

1320
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 4: were DEI, and he put he would put one hundred

1321
00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 4: dollars bill on his head and he would do Ben

1322
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:25,520
Speaker 4: Franklin's weed jokes.

1323
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,360
Speaker 2: That's kind of cool. Well, I was like, weed Man's

1324
00:58:28,400 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 2: not a threat. That was my thought. I'm in You're like,

1325
00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:32,320
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.

1326
00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:35,400
Speaker 4: I go to the first show they did. They failed

1327
00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,480
Speaker 4: to promote. There was no one there. It was like

1328
00:58:38,480 --> 00:58:41,240
Speaker 4: they would like turn off the braves game and start

1329
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:44,880
Speaker 4: the show. So nobody there. But there were executives from

1330
00:58:44,880 --> 00:58:47,960
Speaker 4: Comedy Central and just for laughs there to watch us

1331
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 4: just eat fucking garbage for show after show after show,

1332
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,040
Speaker 4: and then they would let us go to the like

1333
00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:57,640
Speaker 4: main tapings, which were hilarious. The main tapings were they

1334
00:58:57,680 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 4: build it as a Cedric the Entertainer Show, but it

1335
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,040
Speaker 4: was actually Edric doing five minutes, and then they would

1336
00:59:02,040 --> 00:59:04,000
Speaker 4: start a TV taping with a bunch of comics hadn't

1337
00:59:04,040 --> 00:59:06,520
Speaker 4: heard of, right, and so that the crowds. The crowds

1338
00:59:06,680 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 4: had paid forty dollars Cedric, but they were getting people.

1339
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:10,560
Speaker 2: They never gone.

1340
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 4: They were mutinous. Bill Burr was on one of those tapings.

1341
00:59:15,080 --> 00:59:17,880
Speaker 4: Ali Wong was on one of those tapings, and so

1342
00:59:17,920 --> 00:59:19,840
Speaker 4: we would get to go see what comedy in front

1343
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:22,960
Speaker 4: of a crowd would look like, and and it was.

1344
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:25,440
Speaker 4: It was so funny. There was a lot, a lot

1345
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:28,680

1347
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:36,120
Speaker 4: and I walked up to John Johnson and I just

1348
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:37,840

1378
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:55,400

1385
01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:11,360
Speaker 4: of me that would that would follow me into my career.

1386
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:11,960
Speaker 3: True.

1387
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:15,640
Speaker 4: I asked her years later, Joanne from Comedy Central now Netflix.

Speaker 4: the same thing. Also, the booker was named Molly. In

1395
01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:37,840

1396
01:01:37,880 --> 01:01:40,520
Speaker 4: costume in order to perform, and I'm like, all I

1397
01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,959
Speaker 4: want to do is stay home, quit comedy. I want out.

1398
01:01:43,200 --> 01:01:47,520
Speaker 4: And I'm staring at this like incandescent lycra astronaut suit

1399
01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:48,120

Speaker 4: got up and I swear to god, I unlocked something

1412
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 4: in my performative style that night where I just like

1413
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:23,000
Speaker 4: gave up, like I was like yeah, and I shifted

1414
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:26,960
Speaker 4: in this profound way. I killed at the punchline in

1415
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:30,000
Speaker 4: San Francisco, and I was at that point the comedian

1416

Speaker 4: that I am now, not.

1417
01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:32,920
Speaker 2: The comedian that was like trying to figure out what

1418
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:33,840
Speaker 2: who I was.

1419
01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,880
Speaker 4: That night that bomb, all those bombs put together like

1420
01:02:36,960 --> 01:02:39,640
Speaker 4: created who I am. Yeah, And so that's why, like

1421
01:02:39,720 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 4: my biggest flow, and then my career happened after that.

1422
01:02:42,360 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 4: Our bombs creat us comedy is not about my biggest

1423
01:02:46,040 --> 01:02:48,840
Speaker 4: philosophy in comedy is and all and life is. It's

1424
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:50,960
Speaker 4: not about whether you can succeed. It's about whether you

1425
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:53,520
Speaker 4: can fail and keep going. And that's what I did.

1426
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:54,560
Speaker 5: What do you do with them?

1427
01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:56,920
Speaker 2: What do you do with failure? Is the greatest teacher.

01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:01,880
Speaker 2: Failure and success are the same thing. Yeah, yeah, two
