Speaker 1: Forever. Look man, oh I see you? Why why Bowen
Speaker 1: look over there? How is that? Yeah? Goodness? Please welcome
Speaker 1: to the stage Las Cultistas Bowen Yang and special guest
Speaker 1: host Joel Kim Booster. Oh my goodness, he keep it
Speaker 1: coming for Brian incredible. Give it up? Did you did
Speaker 1: you hear the little he gave it a little spicettle roll?
Speaker 1: Dr roll dr. Well, first of all, we should say
Speaker 1: ding dong calling. I know I guest in your house
Speaker 1: and I didn't even do it correctly up top. I
Speaker 1: ruined it. I didn't give you the chore if I
Speaker 1: didn't give you the tour of the house. That's true.
Speaker 1: It's partially your fault. How are we doing? Everybody? We
Speaker 1: get Oh my god, bone and I truly literally moments
Speaker 1: ago stepped out of the movie theater. We just saw
Speaker 1: Avengers End Game Avenders. Wow. I mean I cried three times.
Speaker 1: I cried several times. Now do you guys? You guys
Speaker 1: don't care if we spoil the whole thing, right from
Speaker 1: top to top to bottom. We're gonna spoil the whole thing.
Speaker 1: You see Chris Evans full asshole, Um, you see everything.
Speaker 1: So now you guys, Now you guys, want to go
Speaker 1: um and then you do see you do see thanos
Speaker 1: is taint And that's actually like a nice like kind
Speaker 1: of like smash cut that they did. And it's sort
Speaker 1: of beautiful because Josh Brolin went in there and he
Speaker 1: did the whole great. They put the little balls on
Speaker 1: his own, you know, those little white balls with the
Speaker 1: motion capture, and it's actually Josh Brolin's motion captured taint,
Speaker 1: yes on it. And then and this is a little
Speaker 1: easter egg that you know, that little ridge um on
Speaker 1: a road um. The frenulum, I think it's is that?
Speaker 1: Oh there's a name for that, I thought so for
Speaker 1: while I thought I was any doctors, anybody, any experts
Speaker 1: in many anatomy. What is it called? Oh wait you
Speaker 1: what is the frenulum? Then oh, that's right on my penis.
Speaker 1: Penis on my penis. But I thought, for the longest
Speaker 1: time I was the only person in the world who
Speaker 1: had a rich the line like down the axis of
Speaker 1: your testicles, got you like the scene the scene it's
Speaker 1: where God sold your sacked. He said, oh we got one,
Speaker 1: we got two. And then I thought it was scarring.
Speaker 1: I think I thought, I thought I bled as it
Speaker 1: when I came out the womb or something, and and
Speaker 1: like a sneaky doctor, sutured me back together, sutred my ball,
Speaker 1: sack back together. And in the way, God is our doctor,
Speaker 1: our first doctor. Oh and in a way, if you
Speaker 1: have a phallus, if you have a scrotum, that is
Speaker 1: God sewing, sewing it onto you, suturing it onto you.
Speaker 1: I don't know where I'm going with I don't know
Speaker 1: either about him, but it's your show, and I thought
Speaker 1: i'd like you talk. Um, it's really it's so great
Speaker 1: to be back here. I have to say. I know
Speaker 1: that listen, I know that about half of you don't
Speaker 1: give a shit about the Marvel movies. But I was
Speaker 1: truly moved. I thought it was incredible. Um, it is.
Speaker 1: I think on the first time I ever appeared on
Speaker 1: this show, I talked about how comic books were very
Speaker 1: formative for me growing up, my own thousands of them.
Speaker 1: I spent my entire life reading them, And this was
Speaker 1: the closest experience I think to reading an actual commy years,
Speaker 1: because I'm like a real continuity nerd and the fact
Speaker 1: that they've been doing this for ten years is insane
Speaker 1: and it's actually actually now that I'm talking about it.
Speaker 1: I'm scared, I am, because the fact is the only
Speaker 1: reason they were able to do this is because Disney
Speaker 1: owns everything. Um yes, someone comes just gasp and it's like,
Speaker 1: I'm so thankful that we have these movies, and now
Speaker 1: I want Elizabeth Warren to come in and break them up.
Speaker 1: Disney up, yes, free Public College and break up the
Speaker 1: m c U. I'm gonna I'm gonna sunk up this
Speaker 1: statistic but google it. But like Disney now owns, like,
Speaker 1: what is it like the box Officers? It's something truly insane.
Speaker 1: It's more than half the box office for sure, and
Speaker 1: that's scary. I think that should be scary to us
Speaker 1: as a community of artists. And I think, um, you know,
Speaker 1: no matter as much as I'm so glad that they
Speaker 1: could get Natalie Apportman in for a day shoot to
Speaker 1: reprise her role in this film, it's like it's not
Speaker 1: worth it, you know, it's not worth where we're aheaded.
Speaker 1: I think it's bad. I think it's really bad. There
Speaker 1: was one little flourish of like a game sort of
Speaker 1: tittering of like oh my god, it's Natali Aportman, and
Speaker 1: then it fully subsided. I didn't care anytime she comes
Speaker 1: on screen though, it is like a shot, like an
Speaker 1: adrenaline shot. I'm like, I didn't see jackdie and deserve
Speaker 1: she did deserve the oscar for jack Jackie. I am
Speaker 1: one of those people who is a justice for Jackie's truther. Um,
Speaker 1: I can't it's not I can't wait until we're like
Speaker 1: in our nineties and we get to see Chasen who
Speaker 1: would play who would play Chase? Well, we don't know
Speaker 1: who it's going to be. I think no, I think
Speaker 1: it'll be like Lucas Hedges. Oh yeah, no, no, no no,
Speaker 1: because I found out Chasing is nine and it shows,
Speaker 1: it shows that he was much older. No to me,
Speaker 1: like his soul is zygotic. It's like twelve if he's
Speaker 1: twelve years old. Inside listen. I don't want to get
Speaker 1: too much into politics because that's not what this is about.
Speaker 1: But we cannot have a Disney gay in the White House.
Speaker 1: We can't have it. And I know that I'm speaking
Speaker 1: in Matt's house right now. We can't really like pissing
Speaker 1: on his altar right now. But it's just like we
Speaker 1: can't have it. We can't have someone who's who identified
Speaker 1: as a huffle puff in the White House. Um, that's that,
Speaker 1: that's that just can't let can have a Charlotte in
Speaker 1: the White House. A Charlotte in the White House. No wait,
Speaker 1: so what do you think of Austin Bowen? I love Austin.
Speaker 1: Austin's graves. Someone's waving their hands, Um, Austin's wonderful. Um
Speaker 1: oh I do I do you want to talk about
Speaker 1: this man who we saw yesterday at rain on Fourth?
Speaker 1: Oh my god? So there was there was just anybody
Speaker 1: heard of rain on Fourth And it's wonderful. Okay, you're
Speaker 1: feeling a lot more enthusiasm. It was lovely. There was
Speaker 1: a stripping competition where anyone could sign up in strip,
Speaker 1: but the hosts were a drag queen named Sable who
Speaker 1: was wonderful and then like the club promoter, I guess,
Speaker 1: and he kept doing he kept doing the hookem horns, like,
Speaker 1: kept doing this when he was bringing people up. First
Speaker 1: of all, I should we should not. Just to paint
Speaker 1: the picture for you a little bit. He had a
Speaker 1: face mike, like a Britney Spears face mike, and everyone
Speaker 1: else was using hand mikes, and it was so strange.
Speaker 1: I like the whole. It like really posed a question
Speaker 1: that was never answered, which was why you know it
Speaker 1: wasn't holding anything else? But no, he wasn't. There was
Speaker 1: truly he didn't need his hands free except to do
Speaker 1: the horns. Is that horns? Is? Yeah? He kept doing
Speaker 1: this and it was unlike it was an archetype I
Speaker 1: had never seen in a gay bar hosting a show
Speaker 1: before is something I think only could exist in Texas.
Speaker 1: It was so strange. It was so strange. Um. But
Speaker 1: shout out to Brad who won. Who is a fan? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Brad wan he deserved the way. And then as soon
Speaker 1: he came up to us before he went on, and
Speaker 1: he was like, hey, I'm a big fan. And then
Speaker 1: he went on in one and then we tried to
Speaker 1: say hi to him afterwards and he won and he ignored,
Speaker 1: and we're like, oh, you win one amateur strip contest
Speaker 1: and now you you're bigger than us, Brad, You're better
Speaker 1: than a podcast. Dere um Um is great. I love.
Speaker 1: This is the second time I've been to Austin, but
Speaker 1: the first time I've been not during south By, and
Speaker 1: so therefore feel like this is the first time I've
Speaker 1: been in Austin. Um, because that is a bobo sort
Speaker 1: of sideways reality Austin and I appreciate it at all. Um,
Speaker 1: but you guys seem chill. What are the what are
Speaker 1: the big differences that you're clocking? Well, I would just say,
Speaker 1: like because the problem with south By as a comedian
Speaker 1: is they planned the comedy week the same week as
Speaker 1: the Innovators, which is like all of the tech bros.
Speaker 1: And like they're just just like constantly like trying to
Speaker 1: sell you on VR or give you like a little
Speaker 1: cube of gum. That's like this is five coffees and
Speaker 1: one piece of gum. And it's like nobody asked, you know,
Speaker 1: what problem are you solving? This is not going to
Speaker 1: take off like it like it's just crazy. Like every
Speaker 1: street corner during that week felt like fucking mini shark
Speaker 1: tank because everyone is just trying to sell you on
Speaker 1: some new product that they've brought to the fucking festival
Speaker 1: and it's so obnoxious. The streets are closed down. Everyone
Speaker 1: is like the that Ever, there's like new hats that
Speaker 1: are created every year at the festival. I feel like
Speaker 1: that then Germany across the country, Um, it's bad. Everyone
Speaker 1: looks like a him sister it's not Wow. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's that sounds miserable that this has been great so far.
Speaker 1: I did last night, Um, open for Nicole and there
Speaker 1: was a man I love that Nicole is now at
Speaker 1: least in this circle. Yeah, just so one name. You
Speaker 1: don't know which Nicole I was talking about. I opened
Speaker 1: for Nicole Richie last night. She's doing comedy now. Um,
Speaker 1: and there's a man in the front row who may
Speaker 1: have been gay, may have been attractive, may have been British,
Speaker 1: and may have been into me. And I said as
Speaker 1: much on my Instagram store and within three minutes he
Speaker 1: messaged and said that was me. Yes, thank you. Wait
Speaker 1: what what did they say? No, they just said yes.
Speaker 1: They're like literally voluntarily, We're like yes, um uh And
Speaker 1: that's exactly how I felt. And he damned the whole
Speaker 1: night through. What's the plan? What's the plum? The whole
Speaker 1: plan is a loose hangout. Um. You know, yeah, I'll
Speaker 1: be loose eventually. How dare you in front of a
Speaker 1: lot of studio audience. Um? No, he is, Um, he's
Speaker 1: on a tour of the worst places in America. Now
Speaker 1: wait wait, wait, not here that this was a detour
Speaker 1: because he wanted to see me in Nicole perform Um.
Speaker 1: He was in a place called Beaumont before. Um, I
Speaker 1: knew what I was doing the whole time. Um. But no, Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's been traveling like the quote unquote like he's like,
Speaker 1: I love a sad strip mall or a casino, and
Speaker 1: so he's been going to cities with that. And I
Speaker 1: called him a cultural masochist. Um. And then he's now
Speaker 1: this is where he's there ending the trip. Oh that's nice,
Speaker 1: this is a good specially yeah with Austin and he
Speaker 1: likes it right that that worries me. That's a red
Speaker 1: flag that he's ironically going to these places, because it's
Speaker 1: like when you want to like it's like when you
Speaker 1: get your friends together, you're like, let's go to Chili's,
Speaker 1: Let's go to Applebe's. Would that be so funny? And
Speaker 1: it never, ever, ever, ever, ever is as funny as
Speaker 1: you think it never And actually I am I am
Speaker 1: that person. In fact, I feel like I forced you
Speaker 1: to go. Wait, let's every time we've seen a Star
Speaker 1: Wars movie, I forced you, what's that restaurant that we
Speaker 1: out out back? Stag? I do people know people who've
Speaker 1: been to Denver know what Cosa Bonita is. I told
Speaker 1: Joe to go to Cosa Bonita when he was in
Speaker 1: Denver as a joke. It's like a joke. It's it's
Speaker 1: Mexican Disneyland, but that's what they call it. And then
Speaker 1: you went and you hated it. You you didn't understand,
Speaker 1: like you didn't understand what was worthwhile about suffering through it? Right, No,
Speaker 1: I didn't understand it at all. Um And wait, oh
Speaker 1: then we're not going to talk about it. We're gonna
Speaker 1: cut this sou No, no, no, you can talk it.
Speaker 1: You can talk about no, no, no, stop it don't.
Speaker 1: I don't like the side of you that you like
Speaker 1: the attention. But yeah, no, no, no, this is our house.
Speaker 1: We got it. Well, we'll move on. But I did
Speaker 1: want to talk a little bit more. I want to
Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about these restaurants because wait,
Speaker 1: I do make you go to out Back and it's
Speaker 1: been awful every single time. Um I made a lot
Speaker 1: of people go to the Olive Garden in Times Square.
Speaker 1: Um I made Anna Drezzen go with me to um
Speaker 1: A Texas roadhouse in Baltimore. That made me so sick.
Speaker 1: I was sick for three months and lost seven pounds. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so thank you. Um, that's your state, your state. I
Speaker 1: mean it was a Texas roadhouse in Baltimore, and I
Speaker 1: did get fish. Um. So I feel like in many
Speaker 1: ways that is my own fault. I'm sure, Well you
Speaker 1: lost seven pounds, okay, but yeah, well that sounds crazy
Speaker 1: that you're going to all these places, but at least
Speaker 1: you're here. I want to. I did want to, Like,
Speaker 1: I didn't like send him any gross pictures, you know, um.
Speaker 1: And I was going to talk about how proud of it.
Speaker 1: It wasn't myself for that, um. And I was going
Speaker 1: to say a lot of other, like wonderful things about
Speaker 1: how your book sounded. But now you don't get any
Speaker 1: of that, um because you showed up. Um. But you
Speaker 1: get that in private. Okay. What else? We haven't seen
Speaker 1: each other in a while. I know, actually that's false.
Speaker 1: That's each other last week. But a week apart from
Speaker 1: you is a long time. I couldn't even get through
Speaker 1: the sentence convincingly. Um. But it feels like you, you
Speaker 1: and I are the ones who pick up right we're reading.
Speaker 1: It's true. I saw him triumphantly after did you guys
Speaker 1: see the actress on SNL the Digital show with them
Speaker 1: a stone of Bowen Yanger Rich talk about that, talk
Speaker 1: about I'm a little bit mon I want to know
Speaker 1: while it's fresh in your mind. M is wonderful. We
Speaker 1: forgive her, forgive her. We heard the apology at the
Speaker 1: Golden Gloves and we said, yes, we hear you, and
Speaker 1: we accept this was the platform we needed from you.
Speaker 1: Off camera screaming, I'm like, um no, she was great.
Speaker 1: She was so, so, so wonderful the entire time. Our
Speaker 1: guest um worked with her as well. He can tell
Speaker 1: us more about her later. I think she's great. There
Speaker 1: were multiple times she literally was like she came up
Speaker 1: to me and Julios who who wrote who wrote it?
Speaker 1: With me? She goes, Okay, did you guys want me
Speaker 1: to cry in this? We were like, oh yeah, like
Speaker 1: for this take, yeah cry. She she goes okay, and
Speaker 1: then they're about to call action and she goes, sorry, sorry,
Speaker 1: I just need a couple of minutes. It was so
Speaker 1: nice about it was not like wait, wait, wait wait.
Speaker 1: She was just like, actually I need like one more second,
Speaker 1: and she's just like pacing and then she does the take.
Speaker 1: It it's perfect, and her eyes are welling up and
Speaker 1: she's fully giving you that performance and then Meisner and
Speaker 1: then afterwards she comes up to me and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I need some offhand remark about mental sticks. I was like,
Speaker 1: you don't need a mental stick, and she goes, um,
Speaker 1: my memories are my mental stick, very like, very jokingly like.
Speaker 1: She was, Okay, thank god. If it's a self aware joke,
Speaker 1: then that's funny. It's not where she's a monster. But
Speaker 1: I was like, what have you been through? She grew
Speaker 1: up in Arizona. I feel like that's enough. You know,
Speaker 1: it's the worst place in um. I will say in college.
Speaker 1: They did. They taught us in our your freshman year
Speaker 1: of theater school where I went acting school, you had
Speaker 1: to one of the things that you had to do
Speaker 1: in order to move on was cry. That's insane. But
Speaker 1: they the method that they taught us is very actually
Speaker 1: like sort of well, I think it's the way everybody
Speaker 1: can do it. I'll teach you guys now how to cry,
Speaker 1: Which is they just teaching these massa here and then
Speaker 1: you just think about in a lining, Ah, it works. Yeah,
Speaker 1: everyone who's listening at home. I absolutely cried. No, it
Speaker 1: was the dumbest and most humiliating experience. Um, everyone had
Speaker 1: to do the Emily monologue from Our Town at the
Speaker 1: end of our second acting class and had to cry
Speaker 1: in that monologue and had to not only cry, but
Speaker 1: they wanted they didn't want you to because there were there,
Speaker 1: there was always a girl whose memories are their mental sticks.
Speaker 1: They're always always a girl like that, and God bless them,
Speaker 1: we need them, we need our amistones. But they did.
Speaker 1: They were like, no, no, no, it's cheating. We want
Speaker 1: to see the work of like truly making yourself puke,
Speaker 1: to cry and like trick because like our teachers were like,
Speaker 1: this is the physical response that your body does win
Speaker 1: it cries, and so it's reverse engineering. If you're if
Speaker 1: you're heaving like that and breathing, then your body will
Speaker 1: be like, oh we should be crying and start crying,
Speaker 1: and um, it doesn't work. Fully doesn't work. But basically
Speaker 1: every time I was like, she did so she did
Speaker 1: all these takes, and every time we were turning each
Speaker 1: other and be like she's incredible. And I thought, not
Speaker 1: that I ever disputed it before, but I was like,
Speaker 1: she absolutely deserved that Oscar over Natalie and Jackie no, No,
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Actually I was. I think Emma
Speaker 1: is like Sandra Bullock, someone who deserves the Oscar, but
Speaker 1: not for the role. She deserved it for the favorite. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well the favorite and we knew and and Santra deserved
Speaker 1: it for gravity and we did not. Fact the academy
Speaker 1: always knows. Okay, Um, so trust the academy when yes,
Speaker 1: we were mad at Blindside, but we didn't know, you know,
Speaker 1: and they did. And that's what's important. To put your
Speaker 1: trust in the academy. But unerring, unerring the academy. Um, okay,
Speaker 1: what else? I think it's time to bring our gas.
Speaker 1: Do we have to? I think we have to. Kidding
Speaker 1: I love him all right, before we bring him out,
Speaker 1: let's say yesterday, because we're about just to get into it,
Speaker 1: before we get into his credit. Yes, I have to say.
Speaker 1: This man is such a fucking renaissance man and is
Speaker 1: so good it's it's actually unfair that he's good at everything.
Speaker 1: I think of him as a prolific stand up comedian.
Speaker 1: We recorded our half hours together in the same chunk
Speaker 1: in New Orleans, and so in my mind he's always
Speaker 1: been this stand up and so yesterday we were chatting,
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, do you know Bowen? Have
Speaker 1: you ever met Bone? Um? And he was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you fucking idiot were coworkers UM. And I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's right. You're also on the biggest fucking show in comedy.
Speaker 1: And he's also been in in like a comedic milestone
Speaker 1: of a movie that has recently like that had a
Speaker 1: researchers on Twitter. Thank god that is meet Joe Black.
Speaker 1: Of course we're talking about the scene where Brad We're
Speaker 1: no pop Star. He was in pop Star. He like
Speaker 1: I said, he's on SNL. He recorded a comedy Central thought,
Speaker 1: I think, and this is sort of the mythology of
Speaker 1: his career. By the way, we'll ask him if this
Speaker 1: is true or not. I believe he's the first person
Speaker 1: in history to ever put Saturday Night Live in second position,
Speaker 1: which is industry speak for if you have two jobs,
Speaker 1: one of them is like the second choice. UM. And
Speaker 1: I believe that Chuck Laurie and this is all the mythology.
Speaker 1: Chuck la and Chris, Chuck Laurie and Lauren Michael's had
Speaker 1: a phone conversation where they follow over him. Um. So,
Speaker 1: two of the most powerful on the industry yeah, because
Speaker 1: of disjointed his mind to come that he's also a
Speaker 1: star of um and somehow he's the nicest person, prince
Speaker 1: angel of it in this industry. Um, he is a titan,
Speaker 1: he is a king. Um please give it up for Chris.
Speaker 1: Fuck everybody in here now. You can you can speak
Speaker 1: on you can speak on the validity of any of
Speaker 1: those statements, or you can choose to remain sound. Let
Speaker 1: the mythology sort of germinate and spread and becomes it
Speaker 1: was the most powerful position. And UM, no, that was
Speaker 1: That was a very stressful situation. I didn't know that
Speaker 1: it was. It was. It wasn't like, yeah, it was
Speaker 1: some back and forth because I was on a show
Speaker 1: and uh and but but Lauren called me. He was like,
Speaker 1: you want the job? And I was like yeah. He's like, well,
Speaker 1: don't worry about the other thing. I'm like what. And
Speaker 1: when white men say that to you, You're like, oh,
Speaker 1: she's about to happen, you know. I mean those two men, though,
Speaker 1: are two of these power. Yeah. I funk with funk
Speaker 1: with Chuck Heavy and funk with Lauren. So I mean
Speaker 1: it was just it just it ended up working out.
Speaker 1: But I was stressed out for three weeks. I want
Speaker 1: to write a play about that film conversation. True, really,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be my frost Nick said, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: it's Chuck Lor and Lord Michaels fighting over Chris rad
Speaker 1: By the way, that was the most accurate piece of
Speaker 1: information that someone has said. Um that I didn't directly
Speaker 1: tell them, you know it was. I was like, oh, ship,
Speaker 1: he knows my secrets. Damn, I know it all, bitch.
Speaker 1: Because you're you're at your career, Chris. This is another
Speaker 1: like industry like it's sort of insidery thing. Is you
Speaker 1: were announced as a cast member on SNL when you
Speaker 1: were this season before when when Mikey moved up and
Speaker 1: uh hi and uh Melissa ga hyah Uh. There was
Speaker 1: an article from a blogger who will remained nameless only
Speaker 1: because I don't want to give him a cloud. He
Speaker 1: had bits though he knowed uh, but he like released this.
Speaker 1: So basically I was like leaving thirty rock on to
Speaker 1: the plane to go back to Eletta, just keep feeling
Speaker 1: just joining. And while I'm sitting on the plane next
Speaker 1: to Melissa, Uh, this dude puts out a blog that
Speaker 1: says I got the job and I've got the jobs before.
Speaker 1: That's not how it works. You don't find out on
Speaker 1: Facebook when your friends just sharing. You usually get a
Speaker 1: call beforehand. And so I was like, what what has happen?
Speaker 1: And so I'm texting my I'm texting my people and
Speaker 1: they're and they're like, no, we haven't got a call.
Speaker 1: So it's just like shipping all of Chicago comedies going crazy,
Speaker 1: Like Chicago in generally, it's it's blowing up, We're taking off.
Speaker 1: I'm sitting next to Melissa. She's not involved in this article.
Speaker 1: It's only about me and mikey day, and so I'm like, hey,
Speaker 1: how's your day going? You know, I'm trying not to
Speaker 1: say nothing to her and up knowing that she's seeing this,
Speaker 1: and I'm just sitting there awkward and ship. I'm like
Speaker 1: and then they didn't have any internet on that flight.
Speaker 1: I was losing my fucking mind, bro. And so then
Speaker 1: by the time I landed, it had went viral in
Speaker 1: our world and uh, And I called my people and
Speaker 1: I was like, Yo, what the fun is going on?
Speaker 1: And they were like, UM, I think it's just a mistake.
Speaker 1: I think you still you still have a good shot.
Speaker 1: But you know, like Lauren's very touchy about ship like that,
Speaker 1: and I don't know, you know, I don't know why
Speaker 1: it didn't happen the way it happened, but it ended
Speaker 1: up that Melissa got the job of I mean, y'all
Speaker 1: saw how played out, but uh, I didn't. And so
Speaker 1: that was crazy too because I couldn't like tell everybody like, hey, y'all,
Speaker 1: I don't have it, because that's not how it works
Speaker 1: because if you ever addressed it, then it hurts your
Speaker 1: chances of getting so you just gotta leave it alone.
Speaker 1: And so I'm just sitting there and just watching people
Speaker 1: think I have this job, and then uh, the season started,
Speaker 1: like what episode you're gonna be on? I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: not nigger. You don't even you ain't see me in
Speaker 1: the opening credits, did you? God? That is a nightmare.
Speaker 1: It was definitely is this was this? Is that SL
Speaker 1: sort of? Was that always the goal for you? Was
Speaker 1: that like the job for you for a long time?
Speaker 1: I think doing I like sketch, so I like they're
Speaker 1: doing sketches is like I like to live in color
Speaker 1: Like SNL was dope, but it was also like there
Speaker 1: was just more black people on other shows. Uh, but
Speaker 1: I did love Chris and Eddy and it, so, so
Speaker 1: it wasn't something I thought I wanted, especially coming up
Speaker 1: with Chicago comedy, like in like Second City, they like
Speaker 1: shoved down your throat, like if you don't go to SNIL,
Speaker 1: you won't be ship, and so I'm a rebel by nature,
Speaker 1: so I was like, funk that. But then when he
Speaker 1: offered the job, I was like, yes, please, how yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean even at the audition walking through the halls,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I guess I would kind of want this,
Speaker 1: Like this would be dope and I'm not done with sketch,
Speaker 1: so I would love to like be here and figure
Speaker 1: out what it is, right, you know, at least least
Speaker 1: figure out I'm good at at the show, because you
Speaker 1: gotta be you know, you know how it is, you
Speaker 1: gotta be like decent at it. Right. The thing about
Speaker 1: the building is it is this thing where you walk
Speaker 1: the hallways and you look around and there's photos of
Speaker 1: all this ship and you're like, oh, okay, I guess
Speaker 1: this isn't an important place and this is not like
Speaker 1: this is not like commenting on like for better or
Speaker 1: for worse, like what it is. This is just what
Speaker 1: it is is you're in that building and it's a
Speaker 1: constant reminder of what the show is to people. It's
Speaker 1: amazing because you have ups and downs, and it does
Speaker 1: become like just the work place, just like any other
Speaker 1: place that anybody in here will work it. But then
Speaker 1: every week I have a moment where I'm like, oh, nigger,
Speaker 1: where are you? This is fucking dope, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. Like, so as long as I'm still feeling that,
Speaker 1: I think I'll be good. I have never had an
Speaker 1: interest in sketch. I took two UCB sketch classes, one
Speaker 1: of which where I wrote a sketch where a man
Speaker 1: fox a bird, And that's the only one sketch I've
Speaker 1: ever written. And I have no ability to do like
Speaker 1: sketch acting either. Like, but when I was visiting you
Speaker 1: at work, when I was there to see the show,
Speaker 1: just like even I was like, oh my god, like
Speaker 1: it is like such a weird like it's a tangible
Speaker 1: energy in the air of your like this is there's
Speaker 1: so much history, like comedy his three attached to this
Speaker 1: place that it's oh in toxic do you You were
Speaker 1: to sketch ones And I think it was you and
Speaker 1: Aaron jockson just writing it within twenty minutes. It was
Speaker 1: a gay PSD about things that, um, straight people can't
Speaker 1: say anymore. But no, but it was just like it
Speaker 1: was a full on joke. It was just like the uh,
Speaker 1: straight people can't grapes anymore. We knew we were six
Speaker 1: well and I'm gonna just I'm gonna fully drag her
Speaker 1: because what either of us have to lose. But this
Speaker 1: was supposed to be a funny or dice sketch with
Speaker 1: Lena Dunham in which she canceled three times um and
Speaker 1: she somehow had the flu every time. But the weird
Speaker 1: thing with her is I kind of believe that she
Speaker 1: could have gotten the flu three times in one year,
Speaker 1: Like that seems like something that is possible for her life.
Speaker 1: But then we were like it was like sort of
Speaker 1: like we couldn't do push the shoot again or we
Speaker 1: were there, everyone was there, the crew was there, and
Speaker 1: so they were like, do you want to just shoot
Speaker 1: something else? And it was me and Aaron We're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess we will. And so we just sort of
Speaker 1: wrote with Langon Kingsley and improvised slash improvised this thing
Speaker 1: about like gay appropriation like appropriating gay culture. And we
Speaker 1: knew we were successful because if you go and look
Speaker 1: at the YouTube commons for it, it is piste off.
Speaker 1: Literally everyone on the left and everyone on the right.
Speaker 1: No one knows who it's supposed to be making fun
Speaker 1: of one nonsense and it truly. I watched it sometimes
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what is the p o V here um?
Speaker 1: But p VS unity It's like just like uh, and
Speaker 1: like there are weird jokes in it that truly looking back,
Speaker 1: I was like, are we high because Aaron is maybe
Speaker 1: like a full foot taller than me, But I said,
Speaker 1: I was like, on the day of shooting, it's just
Speaker 1: us standing in front of a green screen, and I
Speaker 1: was like, I should stand in an apple box so
Speaker 1: that it looks like I'm the same height as Aaron.
Speaker 1: And they were like sure, and they're like, who's that
Speaker 1: funny for? And I was like, people who know that
Speaker 1: Aaron's taller than me? Funny for? Best question I've ever
Speaker 1: heard in my life? Like who if I get heckled?
Speaker 1: I want that to be my heckle of a new job.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm trying a new job, Like, Hai, who's
Speaker 1: that funny for? You're like you're right, sir, You damn right. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what a beautiful philosophical guide. I know you've been asked
Speaker 1: this before, but when when what started for a stand
Speaker 1: up or sketch for you? I started at the same
Speaker 1: time I got I was better at improv and sketch
Speaker 1: first because stand up is harder for what I was
Speaker 1: trying to do with it. Uh, suck on that. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: We come from Chicago such a like, Uh, you either
Speaker 1: do improv or you do stand up, but you don't
Speaker 1: do both. Brothers, like, especially on the South Side and
Speaker 1: that people told me not to do that, and they
Speaker 1: said like, oh, you're gonna, You're gonna. You're sucking yourself up.
Speaker 1: And then when I started get jobs, they were like, hey,
Speaker 1: what class you take? Uh some pioneers? What that stories about?
Speaker 1: You really bridge the gap. You are sort of the
Speaker 1: baby that was berthed out of both communities and we're
Speaker 1: held up and they were like, we are joint now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they kept picking me up. I was growing at the time.
Speaker 1: I don't know why they kept doing that. Don't grow
Speaker 1: a man's don't simba a grown man. That's stupid. Simba
Speaker 1: me man. I'm I I feel like people should just
Speaker 1: do one. No, I'm kidding. You know what hot takes.
Speaker 1: They're only I can say with confidence there are ten
Speaker 1: people in my mind, Chris being chief among them, who
Speaker 1: I think of as being truly great, full triple threats,
Speaker 1: sketch problems, thank you. But I mean I'm always constantly
Speaker 1: thinking something, slacking, always trying to like make sure I'm
Speaker 1: keeping up with all of it. And I I also
Speaker 1: do think that they're all. If you're going to do
Speaker 1: them all, you have to go hard at it. And
Speaker 1: it's and you have to be if you're not tired,
Speaker 1: you're slacking somewhere because you're holding up three careers at
Speaker 1: one time. You know, my god, the gig economy, am
Speaker 1: I all right? The millennial condition. I'm so sored somebody
Speaker 1: do my laundry. That is that I still think about
Speaker 1: that fucking article in buzz Speeding. Yo, I think about
Speaker 1: that article. So you know what I'm talking about, yea,
Speaker 1: where they where they were? Like, this is why you're
Speaker 1: not lazy. You have a condition. Yes, you've been if
Speaker 1: you've inherited a trauma from the last generation that promised
Speaker 1: you a false thing, and now and now every time
Speaker 1: you want to do your dishes. You're like, but what
Speaker 1: about earth dying? Yeah, and then you just don't do
Speaker 1: your dishes. But the earth still dying? Though, Bro, what
Speaker 1: are we to do the thing? Like that article ended
Speaker 1: on there is no answer. Yeah, it's like I've never
Speaker 1: seen a more grim article than like, yeah, all this
Speaker 1: ship and also nothing you can do to fix it.
Speaker 1: I'm like, ah, thanks man who wrote that article. This
Speaker 1: like sociologist this for buzzfeeds. Yeah, a BuzzFeed sociologist they
Speaker 1: probably keep in the basement. Like, go ahead, Eric, it's
Speaker 1: your time her, let her speak. I have thoughts, Eric,
Speaker 1: the female sociologist. Yeah, make assumptions. Gender is a construct.
Speaker 1: I know, I don't know. But then the thing is
Speaker 1: also like, oh, but as long as you have an
Speaker 1: awareness of the parameters, than that helps. But I don't
Speaker 1: think that's true. I don't know if that's true because
Speaker 1: now I'm just lazier. Yeah, I feel like you gave
Speaker 1: me a reason to give myself a reason not to
Speaker 1: do the dishes scientifically, So now I'm just like, dog
Speaker 1: my crib looks crazy. That's why it's insane to me
Speaker 1: that people in our generation or having kids though, like
Speaker 1: there's like half of us arely can't do the fucking dishes,
Speaker 1: and the other half are like, yeah, let's make another one.
Speaker 1: And it's just crazy to me. I'm so glad that
Speaker 1: I have no inkling to have children. I also feel
Speaker 1: very nehilistic about the future of this planet and I
Speaker 1: want to die by sixty. Um, Like, I'm so mad
Speaker 1: that I quit smoking. I really am. I like, because listen,
Speaker 1: smoking is the coolest thing you can do. Um it
Speaker 1: is it looks it looks cool. I would give up
Speaker 1: to the pinkies to be able to smoke again and
Speaker 1: not have it like truly like make me feel awful
Speaker 1: on the inside out. And I would. I would, I
Speaker 1: would go, I would be looking, I would look like
Speaker 1: a freak to not to be able to smoke, because
Speaker 1: I think smoking would even it out. Like yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't have pinkies, but I have a cigarette in
Speaker 1: my hand. I wouldn't give up all. I couldn't give
Speaker 1: up my pinkies, bro, I couldn't. I can't smoke because
Speaker 1: like I'm like scarred from my uncle he passed, Like
Speaker 1: when I was young, hecause my favorite uncle, but then
Speaker 1: he got like dough cancer, right, and he's had that
Speaker 1: little thing in his neck, and so he used to.
Speaker 1: But he was a hood dude, so he used to
Speaker 1: funk with us all the time. It's like, you should
Speaker 1: never smoke, you know, wop and then like ship would
Speaker 1: spill out of his nut. Yeah, and then he would
Speaker 1: like smoke out of the hole like you want to
Speaker 1: be me? And I'm like, and again he looked so
Speaker 1: cool doing He looked cool as ship man. He had
Speaker 1: god rams on his wheelchair. It was crazy, Listen, I
Speaker 1: want you to live. I also feel like I'm with Matt,
Speaker 1: like you should stop smoking, but don't like you know,
Speaker 1: he's he's he's in every now and again her. I
Speaker 1: can't take that leap. Otherwise I would go full till
Speaker 1: I was just a pack of day for like a
Speaker 1: couple of years. You got some friends who who are
Speaker 1: like have they like, I'm gonna quit after this pack.
Speaker 1: You've been saying that thirteen years. Let him do it. Well,
Speaker 1: there's nothing to live for. I don't smoke. Shame anybody,
Speaker 1: you know. I just don't do it myself. I mean
Speaker 1: I asked my weed for sure. Uh. And some of
Speaker 1: it looks like cigarettes because the packaging is getting crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: really like like oh, you can get a square mind. No,
Speaker 1: this is this is this is this is a funny squire.
Speaker 1: I call it. I got funny funny like an old person.
Speaker 1: Is that a funny funny thing? Give me a light
Speaker 1: and funny. I love that your eyes lit up around
Speaker 1: the packaging of I love the weed technology where it's said, yeah,
Speaker 1: I really do like I like the edibles. The edibles
Speaker 1: are amazing. I had a fruit by the foot that
Speaker 1: was so fucking crazy. Yeah, it was so I got
Speaker 1: too hot just because of how delicious it was. And
Speaker 1: I'm like, you gotta eat the whole foot, my guy.
Speaker 1: And then I couldn't sit down on the whole plane
Speaker 1: rack I was. I was tripping my as. So those, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've had the I usually will do one of those.
Speaker 1: I try. I call it um molly and a pinch,
Speaker 1: like if you can't get your hand, if you can't
Speaker 1: get your hand, Molly just takes a really powerful edible
Speaker 1: and an adderall and it's the same thing, same thing
Speaker 1: without the come down. Um it's amazing, and you're right, yo,
Speaker 1: I tried to take it. I tried to take an
Speaker 1: adderall when I was high because I was on a flight.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm gonna get some work done. But I
Speaker 1: had decided to get some word done after I was
Speaker 1: already high as fucked, so I was like, take some Adderall,
Speaker 1: you'll be You'll be good, and you'll be focused. What
Speaker 1: it ended up making me do is focused on how
Speaker 1: high I was. And I was like, yo, you are
Speaker 1: so high right now. And that's all I did. The
Speaker 1: whole flight was four hours of just standing it not
Speaker 1: even standing on a plane, and there was I had
Speaker 1: a seat there, I was just standing. It was so dumb.
Speaker 1: Adderall is you, guys. Adderall is the same molecule as math,
Speaker 1: but one extra thing is like a big thing because
Speaker 1: it makes the more lipids soluble acrosses the blood brain
Speaker 1: barrier easily. But you being stoned and then taking Adderall
Speaker 1: as like you basically being math whilest being on math
Speaker 1: while you're your stones, and it sounds math is so dull.
Speaker 1: Here what you need to do I've never done. I don't.
Speaker 1: It's not a black joke. It's just not I don't
Speaker 1: know any black methods. Um maybe I don't know enough
Speaker 1: black people, but I don't know enough. We didn't happen.
Speaker 1: We need better representation where community huh, where am I Tomas?
Speaker 1: If you want I I here's here's a little bit
Speaker 1: of advice. If you want a fun weekend. Okay, look
Speaker 1: up with a guy on Friday, steal some adderall from
Speaker 1: his medicine cabinet um, and then on a Saturday ticket
Speaker 1: and then watch a YouTube video that says, I am
Speaker 1: the mother of James woods secret children, and now you
Speaker 1: have a mystery to solve. What so James Woods has
Speaker 1: a secret? According to this YouTube video I watched while
Speaker 1: it was an adderall while I was avoiding doing work. Um,
Speaker 1: because you take an adderall to do work and then
Speaker 1: it it helps you focus on one thing that is
Speaker 1: not the work. Um, and I have got I will
Speaker 1: have organized my iTunes life. So times, yeah, you can't.
Speaker 1: You can't like venture off and do other things once
Speaker 1: you take it, because then you'll just focus on those
Speaker 1: other things you gotta go right to. That's why, man.
Speaker 1: I remember I took it one time to do some
Speaker 1: work and I ended up just uh masturbated for a
Speaker 1: long time. I was just really focused. And that's the
Speaker 1: that's the lee part of that Molly thing. It's the
Speaker 1: weak and that part. So it's like you're you're sort
Speaker 1: of like happy and horny, and that's what we all
Speaker 1: want it. Oh you are we figuring out the world
Speaker 1: right now? Yeah? I think so. I'm taken out her
Speaker 1: all on a Tuesday for for writing name, and it
Speaker 1: sucked me. I did not help because I think instead
Speaker 1: what I did was I just arranged the dolls that
Speaker 1: I have in my office. You have a lot of dolls.
Speaker 1: I thought you were doing magic. I thought you were
Speaker 1: I literally thought it was doing witchcraf At one point,
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, who in the office is that doll?
Speaker 1: The real peak behind the curtain? What kind of dolls are?
Speaker 1: They're little cupie dolls. I have this obsession with cupie
Speaker 1: dolls and I wanted to get one tattooed here. I
Speaker 1: wanted to get a Cupie doll tattoo here. But then
Speaker 1: I put this out on into Stories. I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm thinking about getting this tattoo. What do you guys think?
Speaker 1: And people my inbox flooded with people saying in hanky
Speaker 1: code days, if you had a CUPI doll on your
Speaker 1: hanky or anywhere on your body, it meant that you

Speaker 1: your last name and friend all the people who had
Speaker 1: your last name. I couldn't. I couldn't do I could not.
Speaker 1: I couldn't use Facebook because because I didn't finish college.
Speaker 1: When when Facebook first came out, it was like only
Speaker 1: college kindler times, better times. One might say, Okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was people who went in a hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 1: and hundred thousand dollars in loan Dutch. Facebook it was
Speaker 1: it was cleaner, it was easier, you know. I snugged.
Speaker 1: I snug it. I had my ways. I still went
Speaker 1: to college. I didn't finish. I was like, I was
Speaker 1: taking like two classes and sell them. We need to
Speaker 1: make my money better. I I think about this. This
Speaker 1: is such a dumb, stupid patrician thing to say, but
Speaker 1: I think about this all the time. I should have
Speaker 1: just dropped out. I did not use like my degree
Speaker 1: at all. I mean, you just explained how adderalla is
Speaker 1: meth and I feel like that, Yeah, you're already a
Speaker 1: science Yeah, honestly, bro a little bit, you've already got
Speaker 1: it figured it out. I mean, where did you go
Speaker 1: and what were you studying that you dropped out? I
Speaker 1: went to College of du Page, Okay, yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 1: I and I love psychology, so I wanted to major
Speaker 1: in psychology and minor in um in English. It was
Speaker 1: like writing and creative writing classes. Uh. But then I
Speaker 1: was rapping at the time, and I just liked the
Speaker 1: hustle more than I liked sitting in a classroom, and
Speaker 1: I wasn't using it in the way that like, can
Speaker 1: you give us a little snippet of what you would
Speaker 1: have been like as a therapist therapist? I'm not okay, Okay,
Speaker 1: I think since people I think people thought you were
Speaker 1: gonna do wrapper. No, I don't give a shit about that.
Speaker 1: You can't find it on YouTube, go on SoundCloud if
Speaker 1: you want that. You came here for true inside once
Speaker 1: in a lifetime opportunity. Okay, this is watching me do
Speaker 1: in probably Okay, okay, uh, come on in doors open. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is Dr Rad. I'm I'm going to be the
Speaker 1: intake person over here everywhere. I'm sorry so late, he's
Speaker 1: so sorry, I knew. I'm excited. And this is a
Speaker 1: sliding scale, right, this is oh ah, we're doing sliding
Speaker 1: scale now, okay yeah, um okay um. And so here's
Speaker 1: all my income? Pretty much? Do I have to pay?
Speaker 1: Because it's very expensive. I'm gonna go to the back.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna crunch the numbers. You and Dr Red talk.
Speaker 1: But but what if you come back and it's more
Speaker 1: than I can pay? I wish I had more walls
Speaker 1: in this office. I'm gonna listen, and then I'm going
Speaker 1: to evaluate and assign a quantitative money value to how
Speaker 1: much this should cost based on what your problems are
Speaker 1: and how much Doctor Red can help you. I like that.
Speaker 1: So you're gonna listen in my session? Yes, yes, but
Speaker 1: it's I mean, it's full patient confidentiality. I don't don't
Speaker 1: tell nobody outside of our group chat. There you go, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: I'll be over there by. Hey, So what brings you
Speaker 1: in besides problems? Just the problems? Was I supposed to
Speaker 1: have the thing? I didn't know I was supposed to come.
Speaker 1: I thought I was just going to come and just
Speaker 1: talk about how I can't do my dishes, and you're
Speaker 1: gonna tell me more about that. Well, I just feel
Speaker 1: like the world is about to end, So what's the point?
Speaker 1: I think you got it all figured out? But and
Speaker 1: seen run across the states and you see, this is
Speaker 1: why we should only do one thing. I thought that
Speaker 1: were great. There's nothing worse than giving than giving improv
Speaker 1: notes because it's like I've I've only had to like
Speaker 1: coach people a few times, a handful of times, but
Speaker 1: every time I'm just like, yeah, I don't know you
Speaker 1: you made that up on the spot, and like it
Speaker 1: can only be so good. Yeah, I mean is that?
Speaker 1: And also it's just repetition, like doing it more. Some
Speaker 1: sometimes people make a decision just because they're new, and
Speaker 1: new people make that decision, and sometimes I want to
Speaker 1: just give notes like hey, man, like what do you
Speaker 1: think that decision? Like I think you should just do
Speaker 1: it until you stop being dumb on stage. You know,
Speaker 1: being done wrong, being dumb on stage is super. But
Speaker 1: like sometimes it's just like you're gonna make these these
Speaker 1: broad decisions and these weird decisions because all new people
Speaker 1: do the same ship until you find yourself. So just
Speaker 1: keep keeping doing. You just need to fail enough times
Speaker 1: tomorrow that I had filled my whole life. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I want to hear more about that,
Speaker 1: and I want to hear more about how you went
Speaker 1: from rapping to SNL. But I think should we ask
Speaker 1: the questions the question We're gonna go way back. We're
Speaker 1: gonna go way before College of jippage. Way well maybe
Speaker 1: maybe not way before. I don't actually know how old
Speaker 1: you are, so we can't five Hey me a funny cigarette.
Speaker 1: I'll say, oh, better back in the time of funny cigrettes, Chris.
Speaker 1: We ask all of our guests, what is the culture
Speaker 1: that made you stay? Culture is for me? Did not
Speaker 1: go over this with you before the show? And I'm sorry, um,
Speaker 1: this is like a piece of pop culture basically that
Speaker 1: like formed you maybe as a kid growing up or
Speaker 1: even later on, Like who told you about something else
Speaker 1: that you could explore, touchstone, something that, something that formed me,
Speaker 1: something that like you look at your creative output now
Speaker 1: or your innationality or your life and you sort of
Speaker 1: go back and say, oh, right, Baywatch Nights is where
Speaker 1: it all began. You know, Oh man, I would think
Speaker 1: I mean hip hop was hip hop is like a
Speaker 1: part of me and uh and I mean rock him
Speaker 1: the eighteenth Letter he uh is the first real album,
Speaker 1: the first explicit album. But uh. And I don't know
Speaker 1: if enough people know who rock him, but it would
Speaker 1: look him up. He's one of the best of all time.
Speaker 1: And he had to screwp with Eric B. But um,
Speaker 1: he really praised writing and studying a lot. And I
Speaker 1: loved to read and like and like study culture and
Speaker 1: figure out how to like have it. And I love
Speaker 1: to just write lyrics all the time. That's just kind
Speaker 1: of like what I did growing up. When I wasn't
Speaker 1: running the streets trying to be down. I was like
Speaker 1: reading books and like trying to write rhymes and just
Speaker 1: write the most clever ship. And I think that's that's
Speaker 1: what really like affected me the most. Doesn't gravity suck?
Speaker 1: I hate it when it just shows up, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Um that that's incredible. Do you how
Speaker 1: old were you when you got that album? Um Man?
Speaker 1: I was ten years I was eleven years old when
Speaker 1: I got when I got Rock Camp, uh, and I
Speaker 1: was already I was already like starting to try to
Speaker 1: write raps and they were really you know, they were kids,
Speaker 1: Like I was writing about Barney and Ship. I hated Barney.
Speaker 1: I hated Barney growing up, Like I watched it, but
Speaker 1: I hate watched it. That was like the first thing
Speaker 1: I had watch. He told me to clean up. I'm like, hey,
Speaker 1: my nigga, you don't live with me, you know. So
Speaker 1: I used to write battle raps, so Barney bro series, Like.
Speaker 1: I used to just write these these raps like about
Speaker 1: like different cartoons and like characters that didn't like and
Speaker 1: they rap back at you. You would right there, raps back. No, No,
Speaker 1: this is all I was in my room. No one
Speaker 1: was wrapping back, not even were you writing from their perspective. No, No,
Speaker 1: I didn't give him no time. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: I think in my mind, I was like, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: write these raps, and when I see Barring on these streets,
Speaker 1: I don't know what he's gonna hear my bars be
Speaker 1: like I got bars for that ass, and he's gonna
Speaker 1: here on. But yeah, like I think my first actual
Speaker 1: album was will Smith. Uh. It was, yeah, because it
Speaker 1: was the only album I could buy it I could
Speaker 1: get at the time because my parents were really religious
Speaker 1: and they didn't didn't like the rapsh it at all,
Speaker 1: and but Will Smith, they love Will Smith was like,
Speaker 1: oh you get with Will Smith? That was like the
Speaker 1: first rap song I like learned. Uh and then uh,
Speaker 1: I'm not proud of that, but I love Will Smith.
Speaker 1: Will Smith is it's a decent rap song. It's not
Speaker 1: I mean if you're putting it up against stuff, but like,
Speaker 1: divorced from context, it's a good rap stop. Yeah, a
Speaker 1: lot of things are good divorced from contrast. And um,
Speaker 1: I think Will Smith is sort of another example of
Speaker 1: you should only do one thing. Um, I don't know, man, parents,
Speaker 1: I don't want to stand he has good was me?
Speaker 1: Did they listen? Did your parents listen to everything? Or
Speaker 1: did they Were they like kind of keeping an eye
Speaker 1: on stuff you were consuming, like on the TV, movies
Speaker 1: and stuff like that where me and my parents see
Speaker 1: I I all growing up, Like we got tight when
Speaker 1: I got older, you know what I mean? Did they
Speaker 1: liked were they like making were they did they have
Speaker 1: like strict control over everything you consume? Um? Like No,
Speaker 1: they were like very like this is what it is like.
Speaker 1: But no they didn't follow up because I snug a
Speaker 1: bunch of ship in the house all the time and
Speaker 1: I was listening. I was finding my way to listen
Speaker 1: to ship, but they if they had found it, they
Speaker 1: would throw it away. But they're not like checking my
Speaker 1: bag for ship like they had the time. They both worked,
Speaker 1: so they're not they weren't like but you. But Joel
Speaker 1: also had very religious parents. My parents at a time
Speaker 1: they both worked. They would read every book, every comic book.
Speaker 1: They would they had every channel locked on the television
Speaker 1: and they would have to manually unlock it for us
Speaker 1: because mostly because I would like they locked it started
Speaker 1: because they locked like MTV obviously and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: But then my dad was really mad because they had
Speaker 1: to lock T and T because I was watching Charmed
Speaker 1: in the afternoon, so they were really piste off about that. Um,
Speaker 1: I remember I used to there was an arrow when
Speaker 1: Anaconda was being advertised in comic books. I was so
Speaker 1: mad because my dad would rip out the Anaconda advertisements
Speaker 1: out of the comic book because j Lo was exposing
Speaker 1: too much skin. So I had like I was always
Speaker 1: there's like a million comic books I'm just missing one
Speaker 1: page from because of j Loo's tent, and um, that's upsetting.
Speaker 1: They wouldn't let me get The Backstreet Boys CD because
Speaker 1: they sat me down I was nine years old, and
Speaker 1: they were like, um that song, no matter who you are,
Speaker 1: what you've done, where you've been, as long as you
Speaker 1: left me there, and like Joel, it does matter what
Speaker 1: a woman has done. And they didn't like the best
Speaker 1: was philosophy. Yeah, exactly, that's exactly. And I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm nine, you know they're covering too much ground this
Speaker 1: day were Yeah. I was very lucky to have parents.
Speaker 1: They didn't know how to work um T the TV
Speaker 1: as well as I did, or the computer, so they
Speaker 1: could they wouldn't even know how to search. I could
Speaker 1: hide it from him, I saw. I was really into that,
Speaker 1: like figuring out every everything. Did you also think you
Speaker 1: were the first kid to learn how to hide your
Speaker 1: search engine history and stuff like that? Definitely? I was definitely.
Speaker 1: I mean, but they my dad hyped me up at
Speaker 1: a time, like I would like unplug the computer and
Speaker 1: plug it back, and you're like, oh, ship, you should
Speaker 1: be an engineer. God damn, Margaret, come in here and
Speaker 1: do it again. I'm like, hi, Bob. My dad was
Speaker 1: a real letic too. But my mom was like she
Speaker 1: was so fun, be smart on all that ship, Like
Speaker 1: she took back she she got rid of all the
Speaker 1: remotes in our house because we were I learned to
Speaker 1: do the last channel thing, like you hear your yea
Speaker 1: and you press less. Everybody hit last and then it
Speaker 1: goes back to the like the clean channel. So they
Speaker 1: took all the remotes, and then they actually at one
Speaker 1: point made me sit far enough away from the TV
Speaker 1: because I used to keep one toe on the channel
Speaker 1: up or down, and so I would do the same thing.
Speaker 1: And then they caught wise to that, and so I
Speaker 1: had to like literally they had a little piece of
Speaker 1: tape on the floor and I had to sit behind um.
Speaker 1: And then my mom started noticing. She she would start
Speaker 1: I started having to like do dummy like covering my
Speaker 1: tracks online because I would erase the Internet Explorer history
Speaker 1: and then my mom would be like where did the
Speaker 1: history go? Joel um, and she would not the populate.
Speaker 1: So I went out to sit there, and then she
Speaker 1: got to the point where she was like, how did
Speaker 1: you visit all these websites and only ten minutes? And
Speaker 1: I was like, are you monk? Like what it was not.
Speaker 1: At one point they took away my door. When this
Speaker 1: was when I was like fifteen sixteen, They took away
Speaker 1: my door to my bedroom, and then I moved into
Speaker 1: my closet and then they took the closet doors, and
Speaker 1: then I propped my bed up so high and put
Speaker 1: sheets in front of it, and then they gave it
Speaker 1: all back because they're like, this is ridiculous estimated so far.
Speaker 1: Got a question, where do they keep the doors on
Speaker 1: our basement? My dad would walk it down to the basement.
Speaker 1: And that's freaky Friday plot and Harry Potter pot I
Speaker 1: had only seen that happen with my friend, one of
Speaker 1: my best friends. Uh his name is Chris who as
Speaker 1: we call him tut But like I was there when
Speaker 1: because I was kicked up the house at the time
Speaker 1: and I was living with him and and his and
Speaker 1: his family, and I remember the night we came into late.
Speaker 1: His mom was matted strict and she was like just
Speaker 1: but at you know, getting no damn door and she
Speaker 1: and she took it off, but then like she didn't
Speaker 1: really know how to take the door off all the way,
Speaker 1: so I had to google how to take a door
Speaker 1: rof and I'm like instructing her while apologizing to my
Speaker 1: friend at the same time, I'm sorry dog turned to
Speaker 1: the right Mrs tudd. I'm so sorry, my nigga. It was.
Speaker 1: It was the wildest ship. I haven't thought about that
Speaker 1: a long time. When did you When did you move out?
Speaker 1: I got I got kicked out a bunch for just like, uh,
Speaker 1: just all throughout all throughout high school. But I moved.
Speaker 1: I was like gone, gone, like seventeen, and I came
Speaker 1: back again at like twenty one because I was like,
Speaker 1: I'll try to rekindle some ship with my folks. Also
Speaker 1: I was broke, and then uh yeah, I mean it
Speaker 1: was just timing, you know. Then I left again and then, um,
Speaker 1: the longest I lived with him outside of being like
Speaker 1: a kid kid, uh was when I was coming back
Speaker 1: to actually when I started Second City, I was like, well,
Speaker 1: can I stay here and just take I'll take classes
Speaker 1: and I'll just stay here. And we really did that.
Speaker 1: My mom had lost a job, uh on some on
Speaker 1: some bogus ship, so she was going through some things
Speaker 1: and we and we found a great relationship. Then then
Speaker 1: it was like twenty three when it happened. And so
Speaker 1: between twenty three and twenty six, like we got really tight,
Speaker 1: me and my my family. So that's good. That's good,
Speaker 1: and they are they still religious. Is that still? Yeah?
Speaker 1: But they look they little looser with it now, Like
Speaker 1: like my dad was an usher of a church when
Speaker 1: I was growing up. You know, I don't know if
Speaker 1: you know what the ushers are, but they basically UH
Speaker 1: an R and B group that doesn't sing and they
Speaker 1: just greet you. And then they're the ones who passed
Speaker 1: the past collectually played like I got yeah, but now
Speaker 1: they're just like you know, so they still go to
Speaker 1: church and all that, but just not as they loosely go.
Speaker 1: They don't go every week. What do you think changed
Speaker 1: for you when? Like what do you think was able
Speaker 1: to like rekindle that? Like what what? Well? I think
Speaker 1: my mom's had just had more patients and and and
Speaker 1: my parents came from the South, and they only know
Speaker 1: how to get They only know how to get out
Speaker 1: of that situation by going through school and and taking
Speaker 1: these certain steps. So that's all they saw so growing up,
Speaker 1: like it was hard to tell them. And I'm sure
Speaker 1: y'all know that too, but it's like it's it's hard
Speaker 1: to tell them or have them see what chasing the
Speaker 1: dream is. And that's all I've done is like I
Speaker 1: want to be a rap. I want to be comedy.
Speaker 1: I remember I first wanted to like do comedy. I
Speaker 1: was like, I'm gonna do comedy that My mom was like, God,
Speaker 1: damn it, another fucking dream. Jesus Christ. How much do
Speaker 1: you sleep? You know? And and uh, but then like
Speaker 1: she saw a comedy working. And also what didn't have
Speaker 1: me in the streets anymore? When I was rapping, I
Speaker 1: wanted to like build my my rap stories. I'd be
Speaker 1: out on the streets all the time, getting into all
Speaker 1: types of ship that they also didn't agree with, you know,
Speaker 1: but what comedy was like, Oh, you're around a bunch
Speaker 1: of nerds all day. That's stuff. And then they but
Speaker 1: then they really saw like like it working in in
Speaker 1: a in a way I started making money, then they
Speaker 1: were like, oh, fuck you can. Oh this is a thing, dope.
Speaker 1: And then now they're like huge fans if I. When
Speaker 1: she hears it, she's like, why do you keep telling people?
Speaker 1: I was like that I'm different now. But they we
Speaker 1: just grew together and I got I got more in
Speaker 1: control of my anger issues too, so that helped me
Speaker 1: have patience. So we both instance, I can't your mom's
Speaker 1: gonna listen to this. Probably she's gonna hear me say
Speaker 1: the phrase Josh Brolin's taint. Yeah, yeah, man, she's She's
Speaker 1: heard me say a lot of ship bro She's like, olloydow.
Speaker 1: She loved this conversation. But it's so cool that you're
Speaker 1: that's so cool that you're doing both basically, and and
Speaker 1: that your big movie break at least and pop Star
Speaker 1: was that you were the rapper and that you were man.
Speaker 1: That was like that. It was that was like almost
Speaker 1: cried that day because we did real like concert scenes.
Speaker 1: So we had like thousands of people in these in
Speaker 1: these arenas and we were doing these concerts and they
Speaker 1: you know, of course they were scripted, but it was
Speaker 1: still like you have people going crazy. And at one
Speaker 1: moment we had filmed me and Andy performing and then
Speaker 1: people going nuts, and then they said cut and I
Speaker 1: was like, I know this is fake, but it feels
Speaker 1: amazing that, you know, it just felt so good. Though.
Speaker 1: Was that your first like movie first everything? Yeah, that
Speaker 1: was my first major movie role um ever. And I
Speaker 1: thought it was gonna be like little RELs get out moment,
Speaker 1: Like I was like, oh shit, I'm about to what
Speaker 1: I remember when they called me. It is how much
Speaker 1: they didn't know about the industry. They called me that
Speaker 1: Saturday with the weekend and came out. They were like, yo,
Speaker 1: it only made h it made a one million dollars.
Speaker 1: I'm like, holy sh it for real because I've never
Speaker 1: made one million of anything ever. So I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: They're like, na, Chris, that is not good. And I
Speaker 1: was like, all dad, And then we just saw the
Speaker 1: slow rollout and uh, I was just it was like,
Speaker 1: all right, well, I guess I just keep hustling, you know.
Speaker 1: And so that resurgence that you had mentioned was like
Speaker 1: crazy crazy. I just woke up and I saw a
Speaker 1: pop start and I'm like this can't nah and not
Speaker 1: my pop. Yeah, and then I saw like, oh ship, okay, guys,
Speaker 1: that's what that's what cult classic means. It means like
Speaker 1: that overtime that it takes a long time five years ago.
Speaker 1: But what was it? I still didn't get to Did
Speaker 1: anyone get to the bottom of why it was trending
Speaker 1: that day? Was it an anniversary thing? It was no,
Speaker 1: it was like this the anniversary was like three weeks prior.
Speaker 1: But there was just one this dude who just released
Speaker 1: a video. I think it was like part of the
Speaker 1: DVD package. But it was like a uh like, it's
Speaker 1: a song that got cut from the from the movie
Speaker 1: and it's a full performance, full like the song was
Speaker 1: like to tell your parents fuck off. It's so funny.
Speaker 1: It's so brilliant, brilliantly written, like every song when that
Speaker 1: fucking um soundtrack is But it was such a funny,
Speaker 1: such a funny uh thing. I didn't know why that
Speaker 1: particular performance got cut because it was it was. It
Speaker 1: was crazy to me because it was so it was
Speaker 1: so funny to do just post this random guy Josh Margaret,
Speaker 1: I think because that saw his name a thousand times,
Speaker 1: but this dude Josh posted like yo, I would never
Speaker 1: understand what this movie didn't do as well as it
Speaker 1: should have an X, Y and Z and and and
Speaker 1: then in the Lonely Islands have been like busy this
Speaker 1: year and last year was like putting out different works.
Speaker 1: So I guess between just the Long Island being more
Speaker 1: president and that thing just being funny. As he started
Speaker 1: getting shared and then by noon that day it was
Speaker 1: like it was like trending, but there was this collective
Speaker 1: thing of like, oh yeah, like we saw that because
Speaker 1: I literally went with fucking Sudi. Sudi mean and Matt
Speaker 1: Rogers smoked Smoke of all Men to see pop Star
Speaker 1: and it was so goddamn funny. You were so funny
Speaker 1: in that Christmas so funny in it. It was such
Speaker 1: a fun show. You know what I think part of
Speaker 1: it is, though, is I think that Um, I think
Speaker 1: it's two things. I think a like, people are like
Speaker 1: are smarter about comedy, like it's caught like bull sort
Speaker 1: of consciousness of what comedy can be and is and
Speaker 1: what what they consider good as caught up with the movie.
Speaker 1: And I also think like there's this thing like you'rgeen
Speaker 1: our generation of people who were in college when it
Speaker 1: came out or younger when it came out. I think like,
Speaker 1: for a while, I think we've just aged into people
Speaker 1: taking our taste seriously because they think like people are like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's a movie for college kids or a movie for
Speaker 1: high schoolers or whatever, and then they those people become
Speaker 1: adults and sometimes those movies hold up for them. And
Speaker 1: I will also say, now you're the taste maker. This
Speaker 1: is a huge part of it of why I didn't
Speaker 1: do well and the in the in the theaters was
Speaker 1: because when that movie drops, people viscerally hated Justin Bieber
Speaker 1: so fucking and they thought it was a thing about
Speaker 1: Justin Bieber and he had just dropped like three fucking
Speaker 1: uh biographies that many times tell us about you. But
Speaker 1: but like and I don't even have no feelings just
Speaker 1: Justin at all, but it did have to do with it,
Speaker 1: because everybody thought it was like that, like funk that
Speaker 1: Justin Bieber movie, like and not even about this that's
Speaker 1: so interesting And now we're so removed from it, no
Speaker 1: one even like compares the rain and they're like, oh, yeah, oh,
Speaker 1: it was just a funny. We talked about that in
Speaker 1: the other two room, I think, because I think that
Speaker 1: was the worry for the other two as well, was
Speaker 1: that people were going to think it was just gonna
Speaker 1: be a show about Justin Bieber, and we were and
Speaker 1: we talked a little bit about like how that happened
Speaker 1: to pop star too, and I think, like that is
Speaker 1: exactly correct because this is like pre Christianity Justin Bieber too,
Speaker 1: so like height height of of everyone heving and and
Speaker 1: that's crazy how successful Justin Bieber is and should be.
Speaker 1: But how he can ruin projects around him insane that
Speaker 1: had nothing to do with him at all. The only
Speaker 1: the only thing you could connect to Justin Bieber was
Speaker 1: like pop star Colin never stopped stopping and people were like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's never seen, never reference, and they just freaked out.
Speaker 1: I do think Joel is probably onto something that with
Speaker 1: like people aging up, and it's like that thing where
Speaker 1: fashion trends cycle every thirty years when kids like in
Speaker 1: high school start to like wear the things that they
Speaker 1: were in high school when they grow up because now
Speaker 1: they have enough money to be in like the creative
Speaker 1: class something like. Anyway, okay, UM, less coaching than your
Speaker 1: meth is at all, Thank everything, Entertainment. I still think
Speaker 1: you scientist though. Thanks Christ Okay, I think it's time.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I feel like we have so much
Speaker 1: more to talk. We have. We're gonna do it with
Speaker 1: I don't think so Honey is with Chris, Okay, I'm ready,
Speaker 1: there we go. So I don't think so Many is
Speaker 1: our segment. We would take one minute to rant on
Speaker 1: something in pop culture that's getting on grow or it
Speaker 1: could just be anything that's going on in our lives.
Speaker 1: Um Tomorrow night at Palmdor on six at eight pm,
Speaker 1: We're doing a forty comedian I don't think so, honey,
Speaker 1: local comedians, Houston comedians, forty people. So we hope to
Speaker 1: see you there. Thank you so much for coming. We're
Speaker 1: supposed to look at it. Yeah, I'm getting my time around,
Speaker 1: so bone can do it. You need to go first
Speaker 1: that I could probably do. No, yeah I could. I
Speaker 1: could go first about something from pop coaching. It can
Speaker 1: be about anything. You just really about it. You'll see.
Speaker 1: I'll just to give you an example. I have done
Speaker 1: um birds that have appeared in Blue Planet to um

Speaker 1: Um and what are some of the other um come
Speaker 1: that's in my asshole? That's in my asshole famously not
Speaker 1: a part of pop culture, but a little bit my
Speaker 1: asses culture. That is that. Yeah, So it's just like
Speaker 1: anything from think TV, movies, music, dance, something that's more.
Speaker 1: Can it be something that's just like in my everyday life. Yeah. Again,
Speaker 1: I think they've moved on to that being that. I mean,
Speaker 1: if you ask, I don't know how to think about it.
Speaker 1: But yeah, but Bowen and I will do it, and
Speaker 1: I think you'll you'll see sort of QUI okay, Bowen Yang,
Speaker 1: You're I don't think so, honey, time starts now. I
Speaker 1: don't think so, honey, Alamo Draft, how yes, why are you?
Speaker 1: Why are you ducking down and rushing up across the
Speaker 1: fucking theater. You're only calling attention to yourself. I would
Speaker 1: not have noticed you had you just walked like a
Speaker 1: normal fucking person with an in aligned spine. Motherfucker. And
Speaker 1: the caseo is actually better in Austin, and that is
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, And that's a flaw in the franchising. Make
Speaker 1: it like cheesecake factory. Make it the same everywhere across
Speaker 1: the fucking world. I do love your pre show pre content.
Speaker 1: That's fun, that's great. Um And if you, if you,
Speaker 1: if anyone works at Alamo, I really love Alamo Drafthouse.
Speaker 1: But the little the this the service motif of discourrying
Speaker 1: across the fucking theater, You're only drawing more attention to yourself.
Speaker 1: Like I said, Alamo Drafthouse, just chill out, Just make
Speaker 1: it chill, okay, because right now I'm walking in and about,
Speaker 1: I'm about to see Avengers, and you're making the whole
Speaker 1: experience even more jittery for me. And I don't like that.
Speaker 1: I don't think Sonny Almo Drafthouse and that's why I
Speaker 1: get it up for run. Thank you. I do have
Speaker 1: to say the one thing about Alamo's menu is I
Speaker 1: ordered a salad along with a lot of other ships,
Speaker 1: so please don't but like it is a not a
Speaker 1: good food to eat during the movie with no table
Speaker 1: really in front of you. And then I started eating
Speaker 1: it right as they were like, don't make any noise,
Speaker 1: and I was like, it's a salad, salad. It was
Speaker 1: just Also, I think you need to look at a
Speaker 1: salad when you're eating it, and you can't just like
Speaker 1: it's it's I had like leaves all over me a
Speaker 1: salad Alamo Drafthouse. That this is a rule of culture,
Speaker 1: rule culture number A salad Alamo Drafthouse is a diner lobster.
Speaker 1: It is just if you go into the house, you've
Speaker 1: agreed walking through the door of no vegetables. I just
Speaker 1: feel like I'm gonna Bone had the best order. I
Speaker 1: think I had a very stone order. Bone got a
Speaker 1: giant milkshake okay so and a pizza damn. And I
Speaker 1: was so, I was like I watched you order all
Speaker 1: that and I was like, Boonen is going too far?
Speaker 1: So much. One during endgame and not a peep, not
Speaker 1: a peep. Ask you when when you when you ship?
Speaker 1: Did you lift up? You know, because actually haven't shot
Speaker 1: yet since I don't think you will when I don't
Speaker 1: think you will ever again after that, just to be
Speaker 1: a big bees or that's going to come out of
Speaker 1: my asshole later. Okay, this is Joe Kim Boosters. I
Speaker 1: don't think so, honey. I think do we have we
Speaker 1: have something? Yeah, a little nervous about this one. Okay,
Speaker 1: we'll see. This is Joelkim Boosters. I don't think so
Speaker 1: many as time starts now, I don't think so, honey.
Speaker 1: The comedy on Game of Thrones, okay, the same Game
Speaker 1: of Browns. Do you need to understand what we come
Speaker 1: to your show for? And that is Dragon's name, drogon,
Speaker 1: not comedy bits featuring breast milk. Okay, like I don't
Speaker 1: need it. I do not understand why a character needs
Speaker 1: to button a scene by saying I get I will
Speaker 1: have that drink. Like it's an episode of Signfelt you know,
Speaker 1: no worst yet It's not even that good. It's like
Speaker 1: fucking Frasier, which actually is a very good show. I
Speaker 1: took that back as well. He's like a big bang theory. Oh,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry it's Chuck Glauria. I love him as well.
Speaker 1: This is the thing they've gotten so brazen in these
Speaker 1: later seasons, with these comedy beats. They're sneaking them in
Speaker 1: And I get if people are like, but we need levity,
Speaker 1: we need levity, bitch, you got four episodes left to
Speaker 1: wrap this ship up. I do not have the time
Speaker 1: to watch a comedy bait, okay. I want to see battles.
Speaker 1: I want to see people dying. I want to see
Speaker 1: tearful goodbyes. I want to see incest ONNY Okay, give
Speaker 1: it to me. I don't think so, honey, comedy on
Speaker 1: Game of Thrown. And that's one manus. Yes, so right.
Speaker 1: That's how I felt about Avengers too. And this I
Speaker 1: was like, Chris Hamsworth is given a primarily comedic role
Speaker 1: in this movie, and it is tough, not not everyone
Speaker 1: is Robert Downey jun and everyone can deliver a punch. Yeah.
Speaker 1: The thing is just like, about halfway through the movie,
Speaker 1: I was like, maybe Chris Emsworth is a comedian um,
Speaker 1: and then about two thirds of the way through it
Speaker 1: is like he's not a comedian. A mileage may very
Speaker 1: It really does like you're like, I've had enough. You
Speaker 1: can't do everything. You can't do sketch, improv, stand up
