Speaker 3: Breakfast Club. We got a special guest in the building,

24
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 3: the fucking legend man Bill Burr.

25
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: Well, I'm feeling.

26
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 4: I'm all right, yeah, right yeah. When you hear the

27
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,679
Speaker 4: word legend, do you just feel old? Do you feel

28
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 4: like I'm accomplished? Ah? I don't know what I feel.

29
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 4: I never feel like I you know this, you know

30
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 4: this businesses you feel like you know any moment, like

31
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 4: whatever you got is going to go away. So I

32
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: just I don't pay attention to that stuff. I obviously

33
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 4: like it. No, legend doesn't make me feel old. It

34
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 4: makes me feel good. But when somebody's like, ah, man,

35
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 4: I grew up on your comedy. I started listening to

36
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 4: you when I was eight, I'm like going, oh my god,

37
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 4: you're seeing they're like, you know, divorced. You're like, oh god,

38
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 4: how old are myself? Yeah? I would say that's the

39
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 4: type of stuff makes me feel old.

40
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: I want to I want to go back a little bit.

41
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: If you don't mine, I want to know. You know

42
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: what got Bill Burr into comedy.

43
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 4: For at a childhood? Somebody happy he gets into this

44
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 4: stuff used to then the delusions of fame get into

45
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 4: your head and then you somehow get into it. Uh No,

46
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 4: I mean I definitely liked it when I was growing up,

47
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 4: but I got into it by chance where you know,

48
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 4: I'm old man. So like I was watching it in

49
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 4: the seventies and eighties, but like show business was like

50
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 4: it was a million miles away. It was impossible. It

51
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 4: was not something that you could do, like, you know,

52
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 4: just take out a camera and start filming yourself. So

53
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 4: I grew up Massachusetts suburbs, so I thought, like, you know,

54
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:42,960
Speaker 4: you had to be in Hollywood to get into it.

55
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 4: Like I had no idea. There was this huge stand

56
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 4: up scene in in uh Massachusetts. So I was working

57
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 4: in a warehouse and I was working with this guy

58
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 4: and he was into stand up the way I was.

59
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 4: And he was funny as hell. And one night we

60
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 4: were we used to uh used to go over his

61
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,960
Speaker 4: house have a couple of beers before we went out,

62
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 4: you know, save some money, and he was we were

63
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 4: watching stand up, but he was going, Bill, what funny

64
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,200
Speaker 4: than these guys like and you know, he goes one

65
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 4: one night, I'm gonna take a shot at Jack Daniels

66
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 4: and go up on stage. And that's when it stopped

67
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 4: being on TV and it was next to me, and

68
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 4: I started thinking like, oh, wait a minute, if he

69
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 4: can try it, I can try it. And still took

70
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 4: me another five years to figure it out. I started,

71
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 4: I started kind of late. Did you ever feel like

72
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 4: you had to wear a dress a fuck a cock?

73
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 4: You know in Hollywood?

74
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ.

75
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,000
Speaker 4: No, And that whole theory is ridiculous, But that's what's

76
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,320
Speaker 4: going on out there, that there's more pedophiles in Hollywood

77
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 4: than there aren't plumbing. It's like, it's it's a problem,

78
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,720
Speaker 4: why plumbing, I don't know, just like regular jobs, directing,

79
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 4: like directing, like every pedophile in jail like created, you know,

80
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 4: freaking you know. It's like no, it's like they're like,

81
00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 4: that's what's going on. What's funny is what's going on

82
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 4: in Hollywood is going on in most businesses, where it's

83
00:03:58,320 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 4: like there's a lot of people working over time, not

84
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 4: getting paid, not getting credit and getting pushed down and

85
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 4: people at the top taking more and more. But the

86
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 4: problem with Hollywood is is those idiots stay in Hollywood

87
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,880
Speaker 4: and they look at most of the country like flyover states,

88
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:19,279
Speaker 4: and then they go on these stupid you know, awards shows,

89
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 4: and they talk down to them, and then that makes

90
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,479
Speaker 4: them hate them, and then they love to see somebody

91
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 4: going down. The whole thing is it's like traveling is depressing, yeah,

92
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 4: because what you find is everybody really is the same,

93
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,640
Speaker 4: like all of this stuff, like, you know, all these

94
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 4: people are evildoers and they're this and that, and you

95
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 4: go over there and it's just everybody's the same. You know,

96
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,560
Speaker 4: everybody you know wants to have money, to have a sandwich,

97
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 4: you want to find love, you want to be feel safe.

98
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 4: That's everybody is like that. But then they just they

99
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 4: just you know, the sociopaths get the dumb people wound up.

100
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 5: I feel like New York and La have no idea

101
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 5: what the rest of the country is actually, Like if

102
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 5: you grew up in New York and you grew up

103
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 5: in LA, you don't know what the real bubbles like.

104
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,880
Speaker 4: New Yorkers are some of the worst traveled people you

105
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,160
Speaker 4: ever gonna meet. They're hilarious everywhere they go. They would

106
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 4: go to Guam and be like, oh, I go to Guam.

107
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 4: I try to get a bacon, egg and cheese, and

108
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 4: the ladies looking at me like, what are you talking about?

109
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 4: This place sucks. Where are the skyscrapers? Like that's what

110
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 4: cracks you about New York is Like what It's like

111
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,400
Speaker 4: the point of traveling is to get something different. Like

112
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 4: they go to La and they try to get a bacon,

113
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 4: egg and cheese. It's like, get a taco? What are

114
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 4: you doing when in Rome? Right? Yeah, I wouldn't come

115
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 4: here and try to get a burrito. I've seen Mexican

116
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 4: foods here. I just start laughing. It's like, no, I'm

117
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 4: not doing that's closest music.

118
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 2: Got a taco bell, That's that's usually what.

119
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,239
Speaker 4: I love that you said that because Mexicans all think

120
00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 4: that white people think taco bell is authentic Mexican food.

121
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:50,359
Speaker 4: It's like, we're not that. That is crazy. Yeah, I

122
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 4: know Olive Garden is not a town. I understand that

123
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 4: they have hoarded out.

124
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,320
Speaker 5: What did Bilberg want to be before he became a comedian?

125
00:05:58,520 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 5: You just always wanted to do comedy.

126
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 4: I was just failing at everything. I did horrible in school.

127
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 4: I did good in school until it mattered. I was weird.

128
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,640
Speaker 4: I did really good right up till eighth grade, and

129
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 4: then once college started paying attention. I don't know. I

130
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 4: just that's you know, I'm not going to get into it.

131
00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 4: But that's when I'll like the ass hit the fan

132
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 4: with a lot of stuff. So then, yeah, I don't

133
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 4: know what. I tried construction. I wasn't good at that landscaping.

134
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 4: I worked in warehouses. I knew I didn't want a boss,

135
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 4: and I also knew that I didn't want to go

136
00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,520
Speaker 4: into the same building for more than a year because

137
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 4: a few times I had jobs for over a year

138
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 4: and there was just something so depressing because you were

139
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 4: working for somebody else's dream and it was like a

140
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,839
Speaker 4: year earlier, I was standing right here. I have not

141
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 4: moved anywhere. I'm another year older. So yeah, and you know.

142
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 2: I'm depressed now. I was been here for fifteen years.

143
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:57,680
Speaker 4: If I wasn't sitting in a throne, I was unloading

144
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 4: trust this guy's drinking from a chalice, Like I feel

145
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,599
Speaker 4: good about this, I scented candle. No, I wasn't like

146
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 4: unloading trucks and getting hammered and driving drunk stuff you

147
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 4: did in the eighties. I mean that was basically what

148
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 4: it was. So and I was going part time to

149
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 4: college because idn't have money to go to college, so

150
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 4: I was paying my own way through it, and I

151
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 4: had already stayed back in first grade, so I just

152
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,800
Speaker 4: felt like hopelessly behind until I started hanging out, you know,

153
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 4: with people that were into comedy, and then somehow I

154
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 4: found it and uh yeah, then I remember doing that,

155
00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 4: and then that was just like, all right, this is

156
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,040
Speaker 4: what this is what I'm supposed to do, because everything

157
00:07:35,040 --> 00:07:38,080
Speaker 4: else I was doing I just never felt I always

158
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 4: never felt like this is not it. I don't feel

159
00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 4: like these people aren't the same kind of weird than

160
00:07:43,760 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 4: I am. You know, why do you think you're weird? Though?

161
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 4: I mean, like I think we're all like messed up

162
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 4: a little bit. Why don't think I'm weird? I don't

163
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 4: know if I if I knew why I was weird,

164
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 4: I wouldn't be weird.

165
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 5: I think I think you got a lot of common sense.

166
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 5: I'm like, this guy is just he's just since human being.

167
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:04,520
Speaker 4: Well, I've learned from a lot of failures. Your own

168
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 4: are others, oh, my own okay, oh and also others.

169
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 4: Well that you know, I had a great education when

170
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,960
Speaker 4: I got in to stand up the Big eighties. I

171
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,400
Speaker 4: don't know how old you guys are, but the Big

172
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 4: eighty Okay, So the big eighties boom where stand up

173
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 4: comedy clubs exploded and all that, and then it just

174
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 4: got to the point you could just put like a

175
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 4: microphone anywhere and people would show up for comedy. So

176
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 4: the quality of it went down, and everybody was doing

177
00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 4: a lot of people were doing blow, getting paid in

178
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:36,600
Speaker 4: cash in and blow and all of that type of stuff.

179
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 4: And then it all came crashing down, and then the

180
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 4: irs showed up and everything, and then I then I started,

181
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,560
Speaker 4: like I walked in like you know, the end of

182
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,680
Speaker 4: the party. Balloons were on the ground, confetti, everybody passed out,

183
00:08:48,040 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 4: and I saw these headliners that were getting their wages

184
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,200
Speaker 4: garnished and they had to talk to the irs to

185
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 4: go do some you know, funny Bone in another state

186
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,840
Speaker 4: and everything. So my generation kind of learned like, all right, man,

187
00:08:59,880 --> 00:09:03,199
Speaker 4: you can party this away in about seven eight crucial years,

188
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,959
Speaker 4: So you know, I learned from that. And then, uh,

189
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:11,400
Speaker 4: you know, any young comics watching this year. Twenties and

190
00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:14,840
Speaker 4: thirties are difficult because you're struggling. And then also you

191
00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 4: do that comparison thing like well you started the same

192
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 4: time I did, and you're here and I'm here, So

193
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 4: I must be doing something wrong, and then I start

194
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 4: hating you for some stupid reason, and then like that

195
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,800
Speaker 4: takes up a lot of energy, and then one day

196
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,560
Speaker 4: you just basically figured out like, all right, I'm making

197
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 4: the decisions here. I you know, I'm doing well and

198
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 4: not doing well by what I'm thinking rather than this

199
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:35,720
Speaker 4: this other stuff.

200
00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 2: Did you ever want to quit once?

201
00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,439
Speaker 4: No, one time I thought I wasn't gonna make it. It

202
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:41,959
Speaker 4: was the only time I ever thought it. When was

203
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 4: this you bomb? No, No, I happen all the time.

204
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 4: That's just part of this stuff. I was doing the

205
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 4: I'm not gonna say where it was because it's a

206
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,640
Speaker 4: sad story. We're gonna bump you out.

207
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:55,319
Speaker 2: Okay.

208
00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:58,200
Speaker 4: So I was doing this this this this club that

209
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,480
Speaker 4: I've just been going to for years and years and

210
00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 4: years and years and years. Every other year I would

211
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,480
Speaker 4: go there New Hour, going to get them, you know,

212
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 4: you know, I'm in with the Warning Radio guys. And

213
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:10,079
Speaker 4: the same thirty people were showing up. So it was

214
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:13,680
Speaker 4: after the late show and I was sitting there, you know,

215
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 4: wreaking a smoke because you could smoke. All three shows

216
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 4: smelt like I thought a fire. My eyes were all

217
00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 4: burning and I was just looking at the wait staff

218
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 4: and they were life as they had been there before,

219
00:10:23,160 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 4: and they were older, a little bit heavier, and they

220
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 4: were counting up that money and they were smoking their cigarettes,

221
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 4: and the same amount of people had showed up. And

222
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 4: that was the first time I like this thought went

223
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:36,079
Speaker 4: in my head, like of like, wait a minute, am

224
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 4: I the guy who doesn't make it? Oh?

225
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 2: My god?

226
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 4: The panic of that. I went back to the comedy

227
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 4: condo and I was just laying in bed trying to

228
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,959
Speaker 4: turn it around, and my brain was just no, oh,

229
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:49,880
Speaker 4: you're the guy is not going to make it. So

230
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 4: that was Yeah. Then I got back to New York

231
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 4: and it was better, you know. I came you know,

232
00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 4: after the gig, I came back and then just like

233
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 4: the energy, I had a couple of good sets, you know.

234
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 4: Sunday night at the Boston Comedy Club was a huge

235
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 4: was a huge turning point for me in my career,

236
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,360
Speaker 4: probably how I ended up here right now, and that

237
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 4: that would that would get me to think positive.

238
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 5: And you said you never bombed, right, And I'm all

239
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 5: the time you have, but I.

240
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 4: Don't think you bombed, Bill.

241
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,960
Speaker 5: I think that people don't know if they should laugh

242
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 5: at what you're saying, you.

243
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,000
Speaker 4: Know what I mean? Maybe now, but no, no, I

244
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 4: remember bombing so bad one time. This was comedy club

245
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,600
Speaker 4: called Mixed Nuts that's now called the Comedy Union. That

246
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,600
Speaker 4: was the black club, right. So I went down there,

247
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 4: and uh, it's funny. I started doing those rooms because

248
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 4: I used to listen to Richard Pryor so like his

249
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 4: albums were so live that you could like picture the crowd.

250
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 4: So I had this idea of what a crowd looked like.

251
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 4: It was weird. I'm white as hell on that like

252
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 4: that was my idea of what a crowd was. So I,

253
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 4: you know, ended up doing those rooms along with the

254
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 4: white rooms. Right. So I was on stage bombing so bad,

255
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 4: like like this right here, silence, and I just remember

256
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 4: hearing this woman's voice in the back. She just goes,

257
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:12,040
Speaker 4: I ain't laughed yet about ten minutes, and then that

258
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 4: was the biggest laugh of the said. Everybody laughed, and

259
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 4: then they just started talking amongst themselves. And I did

260
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 4: not say I did know how to turn it around.

261
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 4: It was and there's something It's bad enough bombing in

262
00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,839
Speaker 4: front of your own people, but bombing in front of

263
00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 4: another race of people knowing that you're taking down a

264
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:34,240
Speaker 4: bunch of other white comics with you, like, because everybody

265
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 4: it's just like I don't like corny as mother. You

266
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,679
Speaker 4: know it's not just me. Yeah, there are others out there.

267
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,600
Speaker 4: They're funny. Yeah it was bad. You liked Richard pryor

268
00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:50,439
Speaker 4: what's your favorite m Maybe it was it something I said,

269
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 4: the one. I can't say half of them. You're gonna

270
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,760
Speaker 4: get me in trouble half time. That was the set.

271
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 4: I'm lucking, I got a good night's sleep. I like

272
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 4: that Edwork's crazy. I will say I bought I bought

273
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,720
Speaker 4: his albums because he just looked funny. That was the

274
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,559
Speaker 4: first one I bought that Edward was crazy when when

275
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 4: he was pointing like that just he just looked funny.

276
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,920
Speaker 4: And that's how I bought the first Eddie Murphy. Up.

277
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 4: I bought the first Eddie Murphy album because I was like, well,

278
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 4: he's also black, he must be funny. And that was

279
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 4: the first one we had the rose in his ear.

280
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 4: See how that works?

281
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 5: So you did represent for all white comics because you

282
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 5: see one funny black comedy think yeah, yeah.

283
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 4: That's how it was. No, that's how it works. And

284
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 4: so It's almost like I found a genre of music,

285
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,200
Speaker 4: so I would listen to it. I listened to all

286
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 4: of his stuff, and I just, uh, there was something

287
00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 4: about the way he did it, which I didn't understand

288
00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 4: it as a kid, but the way he did the

289
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 4: way he trashed white people, he got you to listen

290
00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 4: to him and laugh at yourself. Where I think when

291
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 4: by the time def jam came around, crack eighties and

292
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 4: all of that, like where black comedy was, it was

293
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,400
Speaker 4: like all right, enough for this like sort of pussy

294
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:04,440
Speaker 4: footing around, you know, So then it was more like

295
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 4: that was like a different thing. But like what I

296
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 4: loved about Richard was like you like rooted for him,

297
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,040
Speaker 4: You felt like you knew him. It was really insane.

298
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 4: I like, and I think he's the greatest of all time,

299
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,439
Speaker 4: and I think it's even.

300
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 1: Close during that time, during that era when it seems

301
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: like that crack time where deaf comedy jam and the

302
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: comedy shows, was it hard for you to book in

303
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: those black rooms? Was it was like here comes the

304
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:25,400
Speaker 1: white comedian again.

305
00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 4: No, that was the irony. It was hard for them

306
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 4: and you you, yeah, you had to like vouch for

307
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 4: him and everything, and the club owners right in front

308
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 4: of Yeah, you don't do that deaf jam stuff, do

309
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 4: you? You're not like MF and m FIN talking about you know,

310
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,160
Speaker 4: I don't know what I can say on the show.

311
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 4: Yeah you're not, you're not, you're not. Oh wait, you

312
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 4: said sucking dick earlier the second I yeah. So they

313
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:57,640
Speaker 4: would literally say that, and that was embarrassing when you'd

314
00:14:57,680 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 4: be standing there going like so, but what they're they

315
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,080
Speaker 4: you'd come on, They didn't is they would just say,

316
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:06,400
Speaker 4: I go up, do you think? And they I felt

317
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 4: like guys, Like all of those guys I worked for Talent,

318
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 4: Drew Fraser, Rob Stapleton, Kelly Capone, all the New York kings.

319
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 4: I used to do all of those rooms and uh,

320
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 4: oh god, those are all the memories of that one.

321
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,520
Speaker 4: I remember Gerald Kelly had a room. Oh god, it

322
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: was a brutal room. It was somewhere in like Newark

323
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,520
Speaker 4: and like the two thousands, and I remember that. I

324
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 4: remember this comedian was it ros g or something, Yeah,

325
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 4: rest her soul. She was on stage. She's super loud,

326
00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,080
Speaker 4: and she was super loud, and they weren't laughing at anything,

327
00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,920
Speaker 4: and she ended a safe She's like god, damn She's like,

328
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 4: I don't know who's coming up next, but he better

329
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 4: be funny because you motherfuckers ain't laughing. It's shit. And

330
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 4: then she brought me up and Gentleman Bilburgh didn't gonna

331
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,440
Speaker 4: laugh at least. No, you know, it's weird. I went up,

332
00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,560
Speaker 4: had an okay set and I felt like I bombed

333
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,680
Speaker 4: at anything, and randomly Chris Weber was there and he

334
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 4: came up, but he told me I was funny, and

335
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 4: it was little things like that. I'm like, well, this

336
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 4: guy's famous, this guy's successful. He thinks I'm funny, so

337
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 4: I think I'll be all right.

338
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:18,360
Speaker 5: Do you change your thit when you're doing black rooms

339
00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 5: versus white rooms?

340
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 4: I try not to. Early on I did. I'd be

341
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 4: on stage all of a sudden, I hear myself tagging

342
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 4: all my jokes with you know what I'm saying, and

343
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 4: I'd be like, why am I doing that? Why am

344
00:16:31,680 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 4: I doing that? Stop? Stop doing that?

345
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,760
Speaker 2: But you just would, and.

346
00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,680
Speaker 4: Then it was an easy way. It's an easy way

347
00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 4: to get through those rooms. You can just be like,

348
00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:43,440
Speaker 4: I'm the white guy and I'm scared, and that's sort

349
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:45,840
Speaker 4: of how you do it initially, just to get your

350
00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 4: feet wet in those rooms. And then basically then it

351
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,840
Speaker 4: becomes like, now can I actually go up here and

352
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:51,880
Speaker 4: talk about what I want to talk about? Wear a

353
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 4: Bruin's T shirt, you know, hockey T shirt. And I

354
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:59,720
Speaker 4: started experimenting with that, and I remember Patrice giving me

355
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,480
Speaker 4: rest Is Soul Trey so new. Yeah, going like Bill's

356
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:04,879
Speaker 4: trying to do his white shit in these black rooms.

357
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 4: Sometimes it worked. Sometimes it all dependent on the crowd.

358
00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 4: It all dependent on the crowd. But I felt like

359
00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:13,680
Speaker 4: it's a weird thing where I feel like it's harder

360
00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 4: to be a black comic in a black room than

361
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:19,560
Speaker 4: it is to be a black comic in a white room,

362
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,120
Speaker 4: and vice versa, because you can just play fish out

363
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:25,480
Speaker 4: of water, like, oh wow, this is all different, gee, Louise,

364
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 4: you know, I'm all nervous up here and just literally

365
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 4: play into the stereotype. That's the easy laugh one hundred percent.

366
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,080
Speaker 4: But not early on I forgive any of it, because

367
00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 4: you're just trying to survive, because it's like, you know,

368
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 4: that's like not something like white people don't experience being

369
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 4: the only you a lot. You know, we just sort

370
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 4: of walk in ouh more white shit, you know, and

371
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 4: you just live that. So the first experience, and that's

372
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 4: was funny. When I first started doing those rooms, I

373
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:56,159
Speaker 4: didn't see black people as individuals. I just saw black people.

374
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 4: And as I kept doing them and doing them, I

375
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,680
Speaker 4: started to see individuals. Oh, this guy's like my buddy Mitch.

376
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 4: This guy's like you know, And I started to see, Oh,

377
00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 4: this guy's a good guy. This guy's a piece of shit,

378
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,320
Speaker 4: and this guy steals jokes, this guy's you know, and

379
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:13,000
Speaker 4: it's like, oh, this is just like white people.

380
00:18:13,119 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 1: I was going to ask, you know, back in the day,

381
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,000
Speaker 1: what you name some of those comedians from Talent to Compone,

382
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 1: It seems like comedy.

383
00:18:18,440 --> 00:18:21,360
Speaker 4: Had a brotherhood, like you'll f with each other.

384
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:23,800
Speaker 1: Now it doesn't seem like that, especially with Kat William

385
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,399
Speaker 1: throwing missiles at everybody. Was it a brotherhood back then

386
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,479
Speaker 1: or was it always competition in missis now?

387
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 4: It always was? It just you couldn't you couldn't air

388
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,199
Speaker 4: your grievances on social media and that type of stuff.

389
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 4: Like no, there still is, like there still is like

390
00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,119
Speaker 4: a comrade, especially the people that you like you start

391
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,679
Speaker 4: out with when you go up and you're doing like

392
00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:48,320
Speaker 4: open mics and stuff, it's just one impossible situation after another,

393
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:52,840
Speaker 4: and you just get thrown into these things and you

394
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 4: sort of bond with each other through just you know,

395
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 4: I mean I did gigs, like we don't have a microphone.

396
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 4: Is that going to be a problem. We're just gonna

397
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:03,159
Speaker 4: have you stand here in this hall. Oh my god. No,

398
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:08,480
Speaker 4: it was just like some of the stuff, some of

399
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,520
Speaker 4: the places, and then you would just what kept you

400
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 4: going was your friend in the crowd laughing at you,

401
00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 4: watching you trying to figure this situation out. So there's

402
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 4: definitely that. But you know, people focus on the negative

403
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 4: or whatever. So I mean, generally speaking, we get along.

404
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 4: It's nowhere difference than other other stuff.

405
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:32,320
Speaker 5: Now, when you see the black comedians going back and

406
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 5: forth with each other, what do you think about that?

407
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:35,399
Speaker 4: Do you do you even look at it as the

408
00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 4: black communia? You just look at his comedians, no comedians,

409
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 4: because white comedians are doing it too. Really, Yeah, what's what?

410
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 4: What's your colubsation? Oh uh, you know, I don't know

411
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,360
Speaker 4: because I'm old, but like there's definitely you know, I'm

412
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 4: an old school guy where I look at all that

413
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,119
Speaker 4: stuff like that's locker room stuff. And if you have

414
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 4: a problem with somebody, you should go to them and

415
00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,479
Speaker 4: say it. That's how I came up. And then also like, I, uh,

416
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:01,399
Speaker 4: you know, but this is difficult. I don't need to

417
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 4: make it any more difficult. There's people I like, people

418
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 4: maybe I don't like, but I don't need to walk

419
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:07,600
Speaker 4: them around, Like what good does that do me to do?

420
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 4: That's but that's me, so you know, other people do

421
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 4: it differently.

422
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 6: Have you ever heard that somebody didn't like you for

423
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 6: a reason, any particular reason.

424
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,639
Speaker 4: Yeah. People thought I was a dick. They thought I

425
00:20:21,800 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 4: was like aloof because I when I first started, they

426
00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 4: thought I was like, you know, if you're quiet and

427
00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,399
Speaker 4: you're actually doing well, people get in their head and

428
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:31,920
Speaker 4: they thought, oh, he's not talking to me because he

429
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 4: doesn't like me, And it wasn't. I was like a mess.

430
00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 4: I was questioning everything that I had done in the

431
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 4: previous five minutes. But some people took it like he's

432
00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 4: not talking to me because he doesn't think I'm funny.

433
00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 4: So I definitely had a few of those. And I

434
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 4: was also an angry guy, so I probably about oh Jesus,

435
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 4: just stuff. I don't want to get into stuff that

436
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 4: makes you be a comedian. The usual I have. I

437
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 4: have the you want to talk about hackey. I have

438
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 4: all of the hacky background you need to get into

439
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,959
Speaker 4: this business. So, uh, you know, I could have had

440
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 4: a much simpler life.

441
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:12,760
Speaker 5: I think a lot of us. I mean, I deal with,

442
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 5: you know, anxiety on a high level, you know what

443
00:21:14,880 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 5: I mean. I think a lot of people do. But

444
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,680
Speaker 5: I think most people who have a high level of

445
00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 5: self awareness really do because we're just aware that we're

446
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 5: dealing with something that we're willing to acknowledge and other

447
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 5: people aren't.

448
00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, every time I think I'm getting insane,

449
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 4: I don't know, something else happens, and like you know,

450
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 4: like having kids and stuff. Really, you know, it really

451
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 4: holds a mirror. My daughter said the cutest thing to

452
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,880
Speaker 4: me the other day. She goes, Dad, can you stop

453
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 4: being mad now? And I just burst it out laughing,

454
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,280
Speaker 4: and I was like, yeah, all right, all right, that's good.

455
00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 4: But the way I came, I would never say that

456
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:58,560
Speaker 4: to my dad. So I do feel like I've done.

457
00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 4: What I do like about my kids is that they're

458
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 4: not afraid of me at all. They took me like

459
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 4: a freaking bouncy house. But uh so, yeah, I've tried.

460
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 4: I've tried to you know, I've tried to undo some things.

461
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, they're not afraid of you, because you're probably raising

462
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 5: them with love, or at least my dad he raised

463
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:14,280
Speaker 5: me with fear.

464
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 4: I believe he was afraid that I would make the

465
00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,159
Speaker 4: same with things he made. Oh, everyone was afraid of that.

466
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 4: You were afraid of other people's dads when I was

467
00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 4: growing up because they could hit you. Yeah. Yeah, And

468
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 4: they had big cars, and they were always mad, and

469
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:30,240
Speaker 4: they were coming home and you just saw like, you know,

470
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 4: like their wife scampering back into the house, you know,

471
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,959
Speaker 4: as they were pulling into the driveway. Yeah, the men

472
00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 4: were scary when I was growing up. So I probably

473
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 4: overcorrected or whatever, but I'd rather have him coming up

474
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,679
Speaker 4: this way. Yeah. My kids allowed you know, we were

475
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:47,880
Speaker 4: not loud, like we were loud when mom was home.

476
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,960
Speaker 4: When dad was home, everybody just shut the hell up.

477
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 4: And when he left, it was like a stack of

478
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 4: bricks off your chair. Wait until your dad got home.

479
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 4: Oh my god, those I mean, it was funny. Was

480
00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,520
Speaker 4: he actually was a big softie? Was also it turns

481
00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 4: out that way my mother was the one that beat us, damn. Yeah, Yeah,

482
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 4: we deserved, you said.

483
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,320
Speaker 5: Earlier, you always feel like things would be taken away

484
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:17,000
Speaker 5: from you, like that from childhood or that cancel coach.

485
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 4: Like, what do you mean when you say that, No,

486
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 4: this is before cancel culture. Well, because you I would.

487
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 4: You would see guys like idiots would get a show

488
00:23:25,520 --> 00:23:27,120
Speaker 4: on the air and then immediately go buy a big

489
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 4: house in a car. But back in the day, they

490
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 4: would say you got to wait till the third season,

491
00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,400
Speaker 4: so you know that it's rolling, and you would watch

492
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,719
Speaker 4: guys blow all their money. I watched people get deals

493
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,440
Speaker 4: up at Montreal and they put it all in the

494
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,680
Speaker 4: dot com stock market. I knew that was I stay

495
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,520
Speaker 4: away from that ship. When I was at the comic

496
00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 4: strip and comedians stopped talking about comedy and they were

497
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 4: talking about stocks, going like, you know it's gonna split again,

498
00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:51,679
Speaker 4: It's definitely gonna split again. I'm like, you are a dummy.

499
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 4: You're a dummy. I'm a dummy. We should not be

500
00:23:53,920 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 4: talking about this shit. So I didn't put it in,

501
00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 4: but I saw guys lose all their money that way.

502
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,879
Speaker 4: There was guys I used to be, you know, looking

503
00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,200
Speaker 4: up like, oh my god, how do you get to

504
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 4: that level? And then their stuff starts to go like that,

505
00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,680
Speaker 4: like this this business is it's not for the for

506
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:14,119
Speaker 4: the week and you got to save your money. I

507
00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:15,959
Speaker 4: don't know. I'm trying to come with something positive here.

508
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 4: It's a fun job though, it's a fun job. This

509
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:19,800
Speaker 4: is a callback.

510
00:24:19,880 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 5: And when you saw those white comics on that level,

511
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,200
Speaker 5: did you say to thyself, he sucked the dick to

512
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 5: get there?

513
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:26,520
Speaker 4: Did he wear a dress to get there? Like? Where

514
00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,959
Speaker 4: does that? What is that? What is that theory stigma

515
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 4: come from? Because I'm asking you you brought that up twice?

516
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:33,639
Speaker 5: Yeah, because that's the that's the that's the stigma, Like

517
00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,359
Speaker 5: you know, the stigma is for black comics, you gotta

518
00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,440
Speaker 5: wear a dress to get to a certain level.

519
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 4: You know, you did that ship According to Kat Williams

520
00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,760
Speaker 4: about tweets Milton Burrow, Milton Burrow made a whole career

521
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 4: like be like that comes from Vadne Williams. Yeah, he

522
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:55,120
Speaker 4: played Missus Doubtfire, Tom Hanks was on Buzz and Buddies.

523
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 4: I mean it was just like it was kind of

524
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 4: the you know, we don't have a good idea, let's

525
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,680
Speaker 4: put a guy in a dress. That's kind of what

526
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:09,479
Speaker 4: it was. But I understand. You know, that's just one

527
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:11,000
Speaker 4: of those white things where I don't have to look

528
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:13,000
Speaker 4: at it like, oh, they're doing this because they're trying

529
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,680
Speaker 4: to belittle me because they don't see me as human.

530
00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 4: I don't have to deal with all the stuff you

531
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 4: guys got to deal with, So, like, I don't know

532
00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:21,399
Speaker 4: if it it's how much of that's true, how much

533
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:23,359
Speaker 4: of it's paranoia? I mean, I can't speak on that.

534
00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:28,160
Speaker 4: I have no idea, but like you know, I don't

535
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,720
Speaker 4: you never wore dress, Yeah, and that whole sucking a

536
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:36,120
Speaker 4: dick thing, Like it's like you just sort of nod

537
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 4: you never wear dress.

538
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:38,919
Speaker 2: He said, No, not that or that whole sucking addiction.

539
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 4: It's more like you create a show, you go in,

540
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,679
Speaker 4: you pitch it to these people, they somehow take control

541
00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,879
Speaker 4: of it. You lose to create it by credit. They

542
00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 4: make all the money you don't. That's that's the way

543
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 4: it usually works. It's not it's not like you want

544
00:25:54,960 --> 00:26:01,960
Speaker 4: a TV show. Huh, all right, problem I I and

545
00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 4: you better do it good because I got another forty

546
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:08,520
Speaker 4: guy's waiting to suck. It's like that's just I think

547
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 4: a lot of people want it to be that way

548
00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:13,440
Speaker 4: because it just makes him feel better about their lives

549
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,640
Speaker 4: or where the fuck they're at. But it's just like, yeah,

550
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 4: like most of Hollywood is overworked, underpaid people not getting

551
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,520
Speaker 4: credit for some shit that they created, and it happens

552
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 4: to everybody. It happens at different levels, and you have

553
00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:33,080
Speaker 4: to learn how to protect yourself, and nobody teaches you.

554
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,080
Speaker 4: You just go in there taking punches and then you go, oh,

555
00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 4: you know, and that that's usually how you learn, unless

556
00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 4: there's a comic that kind of takes you under his

557
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 4: under his wing or something and teaches you, like, well,

558
00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:44,879
Speaker 4: got for this. They're going to try to do that.

559
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 4: Damon Wayne's was great at that. Oh word, I've heard

560
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:49,960
Speaker 4: that before that he was great at that. Like he

561
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,280
Speaker 4: barely knew me, and he you know, and he' said

562
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:55,880
Speaker 4: he I saw you on TV funny Man. We stand

563
00:26:55,960 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 4: out in front of the cellar. He goes, what do

564
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,240
Speaker 4: he got going on? And he just stood there. Damon

565
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 4: Wade's I could believe it. He just stood there and

566
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,800
Speaker 4: for like twenty minutes, He's going, uh huh, all right,

567
00:27:05,840 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 4: all right, this is what they're going to try to do,

568
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,560
Speaker 4: and he just I was cooling, like, oh my god,

569
00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 4: I know I just did this business was so ruthless,

570
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 4: but I never forgot that, and that was something that

571
00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,440
Speaker 4: I learned. It's like, all right, so if I get somewhere,

572
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 4: like my job is to tell the younger kids, you

573
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:23,400
Speaker 4: know how they're going to try to come in. That's

574
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 4: how they fuck you. Yeah, they don't care about they

575
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:27,720
Speaker 4: can get a hooker or any time they want, or

576
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 4: whatever the hell they want. They're trying to take your

577
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 4: ideas and get the money. They got all kinds of

578
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:35,520
Speaker 4: stuff they have. Like you remember back in the day,

579
00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:37,320
Speaker 4: there was like points on a show, how many points

580
00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,800
Speaker 4: you had, and they literally invented points that didn't mean shit,

581
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 4: so you would be you got forty points. I only

582
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 4: got thirty. But mine means something, Yours don't mean anything.

583
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:51,119
Speaker 4: It's the whole thing is. Yeah, like here's one for you.

584
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,719
Speaker 4: It's way harder to prove somebody stole from you than

585
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:57,360
Speaker 4: defamation of character. Figure that one out. So that basically

586
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 4: protects the thiefs. So when somebody steals from you, I

587
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:01,920
Speaker 4: can't then go around town and say this guy stole

588
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:03,720
Speaker 4: from me, stay away from him, blah blah. That gets

589
00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,679
Speaker 4: back to him. He can sue me and he can

590
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,840
Speaker 4: just come up with the phony cost report, well, well

591
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 4: this mouse was thirty thousand dollars and this was fifteen,

592
00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:13,360
Speaker 4: and whittle down what he stole and they get away

593
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,439
Speaker 4: with it. Pad that experience. Will it Will it ever

594
00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,879
Speaker 4: be fair? Will ever be no? Because human beings are

595
00:28:19,920 --> 00:28:22,680
Speaker 4: completely flawed and it's God's fault because that's how he

596
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,199
Speaker 4: makes us. So you need to stop going on Sunday

597
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 4: praising him. You need constructive criticism, Jesus, let people freak out.

598
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,400
Speaker 4: Will freak out when you start making fun of God.

599
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,000
Speaker 4: I'm down to hear you. I'm down to hear it out,

600
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 4: all right, No, I just it's just an astoundingly like uh,

601
00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,760
Speaker 4: not even dumb. Just not have an empathy, which is

602
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 4: the first level of intelligence. Is if you can't take

603
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 4: yourself out of yourself and look at somebody else, see

604
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,280
Speaker 4: this situation and hear it that there's there's just a

605
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 4: level of life living life. You're not going to get passed.

606
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,680
Speaker 4: You're just not going to get past. And also they

607
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 4: got to stop naming stuff deliberately confusing, like white privilege.

608
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:12,760
Speaker 4: Every white person I knew is like I didn't grow

609
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,320
Speaker 4: up rich. That's how we took that shit. I don't

610
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 4: know why. I don't know who names the ship, but

611
00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 4: like I didn't know what it meant. I was like,

612
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 4: what are you talking about? I grew up in a

613
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,920
Speaker 4: duplex with fucking squirrels in the line, So what would

614
00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 4: you call it? What would I call white privilege?

615
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:27,520
Speaker 7: No?

616
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,200
Speaker 4: I would, ah, well, that's a good question, uh know,

617
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:34,440
Speaker 4: being white. I don't know. I don't know. I'm not

618
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 4: good at this, like coming up with band names and

619
00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 4: shit like that. But like I didn't like, like it

620
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,880
Speaker 4: meant how you like moved through the earth, through the world. Right.

621
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 4: So one of the things I've been kind of having

622
00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,080
Speaker 4: fun with in the Red States is talking about the

623
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:50,200
Speaker 4: Klan and now there's all this stuff you can't do anymore,

624
00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:51,840
Speaker 4: but you can still join that group. But I go,

625
00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:55,400
Speaker 4: that's a great example of white privilege. You can still

626
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 4: join a terrorist organization as a white person and it's

627
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 4: protected under the others freedom of speech. And they start saying, well,

628
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 4: you know, I don'tant to do the whole bit because

629
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,920
Speaker 4: I want to I want to flesh this thing out first.

630
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:11,320
Speaker 4: But that's what they sit there, and then that's one

631
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 4: of the most fun things about doing stand up is

632
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 4: going to a place like that and doing some stuff

633
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 4: like that and getting them to hear it, and then

634
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,000
Speaker 4: going to LA and kind of doing like the same thing,

635
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 4: because they think people in Hollywood think that you just

636
00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,800
Speaker 4: put a BLM sign in the window, and that means

637
00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 4: you know, you're like a saint, and it's like you

638
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 4: haven't done anything which you basically did was appeased your

639
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 4: your sense of responsibility. What are you talking about, I

640
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 4: put a sign in the window. I'm on the right

641
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 4: side of history. Or my favorite one was it was

642
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:53,880
Speaker 4: white people marching in BLM marches filming themselves or Instagram,

643
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 4: Look what a great person I am. So it's just like,

644
00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:00,520
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know a human being served interesting.

645
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 4: Is their comedy to be found in this year's election.

646
00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 4: I mean the joke I've been doing there like this

647
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 4: election is like you know, when Hollywood makes a shitty movie,

648
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:12,680
Speaker 4: you're like, man, that movie sucked, and then two years

649
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 4: later there's like a sequel and you're like, they're making

650
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:17,440
Speaker 4: another one of these. That's how I look at this.

651
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 4: I think, basically, it's not worth the job's not worth

652
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,360
Speaker 4: the headache. And I think that the house in the

653
00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:29,880
Speaker 4: Senate basically voting that you can't prosecute us for insider trading.

654
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 4: And they're all worth twenty to forty million dollars. And

655
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 4: you watch CNN and Fox News, you know who's supposed

656
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 4: to be these journalists just completely leave them alone. It's like,

657
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:39,920
Speaker 4: why do I want that job? I can just sit here,

658
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 4: no one knows who I am other than in my state.

659
00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:44,200
Speaker 4: I can make my forty million move to another state,

660
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 4: no one knows who I am. You know, get a

661
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 4: boat and some coke and some wares, and I'm good. Right,

662
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 4: That's like, that's how they look at it, like CNN

663
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 4: Fox If I was running shit, CNN Fox News would

664
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,800
Speaker 4: be shut down. They are anti American. All they do

665
00:31:57,920 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 4: every day their businesses divide us and and then who

666
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 4: they go after, they just go after. The reason why

667
00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 4: comedians have been getting so much shit is because we

668
00:32:06,720 --> 00:32:11,000
Speaker 4: don't advertise on their network, so we're just soft targets. Right,

669
00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 4: That's why I could the beginning of the pandemic. You

670
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,440
Speaker 4: remember that kid who he hoarded all the hand sanitizer,

671
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 4: one of the greatest fucking gambles ever because they was

672
00:32:19,480 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 4: a SARS is coming and all of this shit this

673
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 4: kid said, all, I think this stuff is real, and

674
00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 4: he had a whole garage full of hand sanitizer and

675
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 4: he was up in the price by one hundred percent

676
00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 4: and seeing ah, they were just dragging this kid. How

677
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 4: could you do that? And then meanwhile, like big pharmaceutical companies,

678
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:37,680
Speaker 4: it's like four to sixty bucks for a leukemia pill

679
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,800
Speaker 4: and that's totally fine. Why is that fine? Because they're

680
00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 4: making money off them, so they're not going to, like,

681
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,440
Speaker 4: you know, bite the hand that feed. So this is

682
00:32:44,520 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 4: the shit that like you think about when you're alone

683
00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,080
Speaker 4: a lot on the road and it eventually makes you

684
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:54,240
Speaker 4: go crazy. So I just I have decided what. I

685
00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 4: just sort of like I don't pay attention to like anything.

686
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 4: I try not to, but then and when I do,

687
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 4: it's like heartbreaking. Like there's there's a uh, there's a

688
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 4: documentary about the Ukraine that came out one an oscar

689
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 4: and I just saw the trailers. I just was most

690
00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 4: heartbreaking thing you've ever seen.

691
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:13,640
Speaker 5: It's almost like ignorance is bliss, right, Like that's what

692
00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 5: you realize unless you know happier you are.

693
00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:22,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, or like uh, I don't know. Yeah, it's weird.

694
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,640
Speaker 4: It's weird and then dumb people think they know everything.

695
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 4: M M. Sure I had this works, let me, I

696
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 4: got it all figured out. Yeah, so that's why I realized, Yeah,

697
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 4: I don't know shit.

698
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: Does cancel culture scare you at all? It made you change,

699
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:34,800
Speaker 2: you said.

700
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:36,560
Speaker 1: You see a lot of comedians change the set, change

701
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 1: how they talk, change what they talk about.

702
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 5: Uh.

703
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:43,160
Speaker 4: Well, that was something that, like most movements, started with

704
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 4: something good, you know, and then was quickly co opted

705
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 4: by people with their own interest and then it just

706
00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 4: completely lost its way.

707
00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:51,920
Speaker 2: And like, is a good thing because because medians were

708
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 2: usually the ones that well I think you.

709
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 4: Laugh, you know, but if there was people no, but

710
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 4: the initial thing that there's these people out there sex

711
00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:02,240
Speaker 4: abusing people like that was good to get rid of

712
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 4: those people that that wasn't bad. But then all of

713
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 4: a sudden it's spun into what are you talking about

714
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 4: in your act? You know? I worked with an actor

715
00:34:09,320 --> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 4: she got she got canceled for an analogy. Well and

716
00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,120
Speaker 4: it was and it was all politics. The girl on

717
00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 4: Star Wars. It was she didn't want to get the

718
00:34:19,760 --> 00:34:21,880
Speaker 4: she didn't want to get the COVID shot, and then

719
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:27,520
Speaker 4: she made some sort of Nazi Germany analogy, right, Well, no,

720
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 4: it'll do if it goes against the politics, if it

721
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 4: went across, if she was coming the other way, if

722
00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 4: she was coming like the other way, then I don't

723
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,239
Speaker 4: think it doesn't land that way, because I gotta be

724
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:41,760
Speaker 4: honest with you, Like Hitler and Nazi analogies and comedy

725
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 4: are like are hackey, it's forever been this guy's the

726
00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 4: next Hitler blah blah blah blah blah or something like that,

727
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:54,040
Speaker 4: so you know, like I don't know it, so it's

728
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 4: it's it's I kind of like didn't really notice it

729
00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,440
Speaker 4: was happening that I was kind of on stage going like, oh,

730
00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,439
Speaker 4: I just said that, what if somebody just takes that clip?

731
00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:06,680
Speaker 4: And as I didn't realize I was doing that till

732
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,360
Speaker 4: I did. Dave Chappelle was doing COVID shows and I

733
00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 4: went there and nobody had a phone, and just the

734
00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 4: freedom of that, not like I was gonna go out

735
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,360
Speaker 4: and say something ignorant, but just not having to worry

736
00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,680
Speaker 4: about that when they were really kind of common for people,

737
00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,239
Speaker 4: because I think it's like died down, but it was

738
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 4: a while. It just seemed like they had to throw

739
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 4: a log on the fire every month and eat whether

740
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:33,840
Speaker 4: they had somebody or not. And the wrong Nazi Germany

741
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:39,359
Speaker 4: Hitler reference will get you in any air. Look, it's all.

742
00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:46,120
Speaker 4: It depends on your intent. It depends on your intent.

743
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,480
Speaker 4: I did Nazi jokes when I was in Germany, and

744
00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 4: they would die and laugh because it was just like,

745
00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:58,840
Speaker 4: what was it. I was just talking about all their accomplishments, like,

746
00:35:58,960 --> 00:36:00,680
Speaker 4: you know what's amazing about you guys, you know all

747
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 4: the accomplishments you made, you know, with the automobile, you know, weaponry,

748
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 4: audio tape. I just was listing all their accomplishments. I go,

749
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,840
Speaker 4: and then you just pick one wrong guy and it

750
00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:18,000
Speaker 4: all goes to hell. And I just started talking about yeah,

751
00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:23,359
Speaker 4: because and then they filmed it so they can't refute it. Oh,

752
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 4: that was a joke I was doing. Yeah, how Germany

753
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:28,200
Speaker 4: they actually have shame for what they did. And it's

754
00:36:28,239 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 4: not because they're better white people. It's because they're oppressed people. One.

755
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,360
Speaker 4: They have to they have to acknowledge it.

756
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,520
Speaker 5: The natification though, that is that's what That's what that was. Yeah,

757
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 5: it was them having shame for what they did and

758
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 5: you know, cleaning everything up.

759
00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,279
Speaker 4: I find neo like neo Nazis are fascinating to me

760
00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 4: because like they're all like to support the troops people

761
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,080
Speaker 4: and they're like neo Nazis and it's like, well, you know,

762
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 4: the troops were fighting the Nazis. Like just how all

763
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:55,759
Speaker 4: of that gets blurred after time?

764
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 5: It's weird, not that one little piece you just said,

765
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,920
Speaker 5: Neo Nazis a fast needing to be Yeah, clip that

766

Speaker 2: How does that happen?

844
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,920
Speaker 4: Saying a white guy from I watched, like, you know,

Speaker 4: crush on Janet Jackson. How does that happen? When'd you meet?

847
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:50,359
Speaker 4: First time I met her, I was with her dad,

848
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 4: who was booking The Apollo. So I was doing showtime

849
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,759
Speaker 4: with the Apollo, and she was standing out back. Oh

850
00:40:56,840 --> 00:41:02,960
Speaker 4: she's black black, So I light skinned black people in

851
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 4: at the Apollo. It was my wife is gorgeous. He's gorgeous.

852
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,400
Speaker 4: So that was one thing, but I didn't really I

853
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:14,879
Speaker 4: I came and was coming up the backstairs and someone

854
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,920
Speaker 4: was getting booed, and I just remember thinking like, why

855
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,440
Speaker 4: am I doing this? I didn't need to do this.

856
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:23,320
Speaker 4: This all started with like that Patrician shit where he

857
00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:25,719
Speaker 4: was always, you know, fucking with you. So he was like,

858
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 4: you have a good set, and he would just and

859
00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:30,200
Speaker 4: then he started talking about talents room, talent Will's room

860
00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 4: around the corner, saying like, you know, there's a bunch

861
00:41:32,320 --> 00:41:35,200
Speaker 4: of comics over there that ten times funnier than all

862
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 4: you white guys, and da da da da da, and

863
00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:38,799
Speaker 4: you know, so it kind of felt like all right.

864
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 4: He was like, I just want a championship, and somebody saying, oh,

865
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:43,879
Speaker 4: there's some guys across the way that could kick your ass.

866
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:45,440
Speaker 4: They're not allowed in the league. So it's like, all right,

867
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 4: I gotta go play him. So I started doing those rooms,

868
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,040
Speaker 4: and then that led and then I was thinking, like, well,

869
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 4: there's be great. I'll do the black rooms. I'll also

870
00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:53,879
Speaker 4: do the white rooms, and then I can get that draw.

871
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 4: That crowd that I heard on those Richer prior albums

872
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:03,319
Speaker 4: didn't happen. But I ended up doing the Apollo and uh,

873
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 4: that's where I met her. But I met her again

874
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:09,000
Speaker 4: on Tough Crowd. She was doing Tough Crowd with Colin

875
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 4: Quinn and we kind of hit it off, and I

876
00:42:14,280 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 4: remember I just kept asking her ound. She just kept

877
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,479
Speaker 4: being a jerk, and right as I was a typical woman,

878
00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 4: right the second I was like, you know what, the

879
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 4: hell with her? The hell with her? Ended up running

Speaker 4: into her, and then all of a sudden she was

971
00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:34,279
Speaker 4: of that friendship. And you know, I just don't have time.

972
00:46:34,320 --> 00:46:36,160
Speaker 4: I don't have time for that, you know what I mean.

973
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:38,320
Speaker 4: And plus it was also kind of teetering anyways. You

974
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:39,640
Speaker 4: know it was obvious too.

975
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, your you're a woman failed to w

976
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 5: NBA joke is one of the greatest social commentaries.

977
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:51,160
Speaker 4: Though, Yeah, thank you. I mean, I'm just I'm saying, yes,

978
00:46:51,200 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 4: I appreciate that. How did you get how did you

979
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 4: get to that? I was watching ESPN and they were blaming.

980
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 4: They were talking about like female sports not getting money

981
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:03,759
Speaker 4: and stuff like that and all of that, and like

982
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:06,759
Speaker 4: he's just being in entertainment. It's like you have to

983
00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,000
Speaker 4: put asses in the seats and that's what brings the

984
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,360
Speaker 4: money in. So there was a point where, you know,

985
00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,880
Speaker 4: professional football wasn't doing as well as college football, and

986
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,160
Speaker 4: these guys just kept working in and working it till

987
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,960
Speaker 4: it became like what it was. And you know, there's

988
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:24,279
Speaker 4: more women than there are men, So like, this is

989
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 4: not on us that women's sports at the very least

990
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:31,279
Speaker 4: aren't being supported. So they're not being supported because you

991
00:47:31,360 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 4: guys aren't showing up. So that was the seed of

992
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 4: the bit. And I always forget my material.

993
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,799
Speaker 5: I forget how you pointed to what actually is successful

994
00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:42,000
Speaker 5: that women's support.

995
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,960
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah reality TV, Yeah, which is

996
00:47:45,960 --> 00:47:49,720
Speaker 4: a bunch of women yelling at each other, yeah and fighting, yeah.

997
00:47:50,239 --> 00:47:52,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, growing juice and drinks and water.

998
00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:54,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, my wife likes those shows.

00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,560
Speaker 4: concur that guy does definitely look like me. It would

1004
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 4: have been cool if he was a quarterback. But that

1005
00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 4: shows how how popular you are. Oh yeah, I guess so.

1006
00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 4: I don't think any of that ship really Yeah. No,

1007
00:48:23,000 --> 00:48:26,440
Speaker 4: that's the end of you, and that's the end of you.

1008
00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:29,560
Speaker 4: You start walking around these I don't know. I actually

1009
00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,520
Speaker 4: I kind of appreciate people that feel that way about themselves.

1010
00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 4: Then also, I don't understand it, but I mean when

1011
00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:38,719
Speaker 4: you're standing there those people say that with their shirt

1012
00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 4: blowing in front of a fan, in front of their

1013
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:42,799
Speaker 4: own audience, that shit is hilarious to me. I don't

1014
00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:43,960
Speaker 4: think you can go that far. But when you think

1015
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,359
Speaker 4: about your home, you got the sandals on, I could

1016
00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,759
Speaker 4: see you're doing that, blowing your hoodie around. I'm just

1017
00:48:49,840 --> 00:48:51,360
Speaker 4: gonna do it to you before you do it to me.

1018
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 4: How many times you wash that sweatshirt, by the way

1019
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:58,960
Speaker 4: that it looks like a white guys sweatshirt, threw it

1020
00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:02,080
Speaker 4: in with the towels and okay, oh it's tied that.

1021
00:49:02,239 --> 00:49:04,319
Speaker 5: Yeah, but when you think about your humble beginning, then

1022
00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:05,399
Speaker 5: you think about Finway Park.

1023
00:49:05,880 --> 00:49:07,960
Speaker 4: You got to take that in a little bit. Like

1024
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,839
Speaker 4: I came a long way, at least I did. I did,

1025
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,760
Speaker 4: But like I get, I'm too afraid to That's basically

1026
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:15,279
Speaker 4: what it is. I'm too afraid to look at what

1027
00:49:16,280 --> 00:49:19,720
Speaker 4: I'm doing in situations like that because I need to perform.

1028
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 4: So if I get all into the you know, start

1029
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 4: thinking of the magnitude of something. I just literally saw

1030
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,400
Speaker 4: Kevin Hart's picture on the door man. It's one of

1031
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:31,680
Speaker 4: my favorite people in the business.

1032
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,920
Speaker 5: Kevin bought he used to buy his chairs. So that's

1033
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:35,320
Speaker 5: why we have him sitting in that chair because he

1034
00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:37,000
Speaker 5: bought for the old three. He bought all the chairs.

1035
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:40,120
Speaker 4: It's one of my favorite people. All I do, our

1036
00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,560
Speaker 4: whole relationship is just giving each other ship. I don't

1037
00:49:42,600 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 4: think I had actual conversation anyway. Yeah I don't. I

1038
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:57,080
Speaker 4: don't think of stuff like that. So I I I minimize, minimize, minimized, minimize.

1039
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:04,879
Speaker 4: So because I had horrible anxiety when I started out, Yeah,

1040
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 4: so I had to figure out how to get The

1041
00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 4: only way I could figure out how to get it

1042
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:11,120
Speaker 4: past it was to look at the stuff that I

1043
00:50:11,239 --> 00:50:13,040
Speaker 4: was doing and act like it wasn't a big deal,

1044
00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:16,160
Speaker 4: just a job. They come in here, they get sitters

1045
00:50:16,200 --> 00:50:19,839
Speaker 4: and pay you know, money to come here. I come here,

1046
00:50:19,880 --> 00:50:22,120
Speaker 4: I make them laugh, they leave, hopefully they come back,

1047
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 4: and I just sort of reduce it to that, and

1048
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,560
Speaker 4: then I don't know. Then I come on a show

1049
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:28,200
Speaker 4: like this and you start bringing stuff up, and that's

1050
00:50:28,239 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 4: when I think, that's when I first start thinking about it. Look,

1051
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:34,799
Speaker 4: I'm getting uncomfortable now, look at the ready to go right,

1052
00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:39,359
Speaker 4: just thinking talking about that ship. That all comes back

1053
00:50:39,520 --> 00:50:44,680
Speaker 4: also comes back to like just like, uh, I don't

1054
00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 4: know this weird, like low self esteem and then also

1055
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,759
Speaker 4: like not accepting compliments. I haven't figured that part of

1056
00:50:50,800 --> 00:50:58,279
Speaker 4: me out past syndrome. Oh my god, first time. Yeah.

1057
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,719
Speaker 4: I always like that's the thought that every time I

00:51:41,360 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 4: He's you know, works with Dice, He's worked with everybody,

1069
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:46,960
Speaker 4: and uh so he knows. And he's also you know,

1070
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 4: he's a cop jersey guy. You know, he talks like Deuce,

1074
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,000
Speaker 4: I know I I had a good one. So yeah,

1075

Speaker 4: Tot'll start some shit. I don't walk off stage thinking

1078
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:12,319
Speaker 4: I'm the ship. I walk off stage thinking I hope

1079
00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,000
Speaker 4: that was good enough that they come back.

1080
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:18,880
Speaker 6: So that was crazy because I'm literally still starstruck. Just

1081
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:21,120
Speaker 6: remember when I just walked past the room and I

1082
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,560
Speaker 6: was like, oh shit, Bilbert's Bilberg, how are you doing

1083
00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,520
Speaker 6: and he was just looking like it was like not

1084
00:52:27,160 --> 00:52:30,160
Speaker 6: at all, like, oh, yeah, you know, I am that guy.

Speaker 2: It was just real cool.

1087
00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:35,919
Speaker 6: And the first time you made me laugh was Racial Drafts.

1088
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:38,479
Speaker 4: The Dave Chappelle that you did.

1089
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:42,960

Speaker 6: was a big fan of Chappelle show.

1091
00:52:45,000 --> 00:52:47,359
Speaker 4: And then every spot. That was one of the coolest things,

1092
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:50,960
Speaker 4: the first really cool thing that I ever got on

1093

1118
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,719

Speaker 4: it came on at like ten o'clock or something like

1122
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:29,640
Speaker 4: that on Comedy Central, and this show was at nine

1123
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:31,919
Speaker 4: point thirty, like they would be doing a show trying

1124
00:54:31,960 --> 00:54:34,040
Speaker 4: to do an hour at ten o'clock, like five or ten.

1125
00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 4: Half the crowd would just get up and leave, and

1126
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 4: he'd be like, you know, thinking, what did I say, Well, well,

1127
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:41,440
Speaker 4: we're gonna go watch the Chappelle Show. I don't know

1128
00:54:41,480 --> 00:54:44,239
Speaker 4: if anything gets that big again with not all of

1129
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:49,239
Speaker 4: those media, but it was like and everybody brings up,

1130

1132
00:54:54,440 --> 00:54:58,560
Speaker 4: I was in the first cut of that, and I

1133
00:54:58,600 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 4: think Comedy Central thought was too dark. Oh my god.

1134
00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:06,000
Speaker 4: It was like it was like a fucking Oscar winning

1135
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 4: movie because it was hilarious. And then it was like

1136
00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:12,000
Speaker 4: when the White Dude was in prison in the end,

1137
00:55:12,080 --> 00:55:14,080
Speaker 4: the way they did it and they cut to Dave

1138
00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 4: laughing on the golf course, it wasn't funny. It was like,

1139
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:19,800
Speaker 4: this is what you fuckers do to us. It was

1140
00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:23,080

1141
00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:28,040
Speaker 4: we uh, I think there's a different ending. Bring it

00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:30,839
Speaker 4: a little bit. There was a that was another thing too.

1143
00:55:31,680 --> 00:55:33,600
Speaker 4: I remember they used to edit it right up the

1144
00:55:33,600 --> 00:55:35,799

Speaker 4: him and they would like fold in half, and he

1167
00:56:47,840 --> 00:56:50,480

00:57:12,480 --> 00:57:14,800
Speaker 4: one of the greatest pep talks I ever got, I

1177
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:17,919
Speaker 4: ever got. Like it's funny because I'm older than Dave,

1178
00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,160
Speaker 4: but Dave started so young. I always look at him

1179
00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:24,200
Speaker 4: like an older brother, right, And uh, I was doing

1180
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:26,480
Speaker 4: some shit at the cellar, you know, and I got

1181
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:28,480
Speaker 4: off stage and he was sitting on the stairs. Fortunately

1182
00:57:28,520 --> 00:57:29,840
Speaker 4: I didn't know he was there. I would at that

1183
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,000
Speaker 4: point in my career would have been like intimidated somebody

1184
00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,120
Speaker 4: that big watching me. And I remember him telling me,

1185
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:37,840
Speaker 4: he's like, man, your point of view was so dope, man,

1186
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:40,320
Speaker 4: and he goes, it's gonna but it's gonna take you

1187
00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 4: a lot longer to get there, but when you do,

1188
00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:44,600
Speaker 4: you're gonna hit hard. And I, dude, I fucking held

1189
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:48,200
Speaker 4: on to that for like seven years on the road

1190
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:50,280
Speaker 4: going Dave think some funny, Dave thinks some funny.

1198
00:58:10,800 --> 00:58:12,760

1199
00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:15,800
Speaker 4: eight seconds. You what clip was it? Somebody said something like, well,

1203
00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,800
Speaker 5: Larry King always says the best question to ask is why.

1204
00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,160
Speaker 5: Because people say that, and I really do be curious.

1205
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,800
Speaker 5: I'm like, well why why is always the best question.

Speaker 4: That's a better Yeah, it's a better why Your why wasn't?

1207
00:58:36,120 --> 00:58:41,600

1208
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 4: why the funk would you do that? No, it isn't.

1209
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,640
Speaker 4: But I had a good time. It's my insecurity. I

1215
00:58:58,840 --> 00:59:02,400
