Of 1059 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 1: anyone I've ever worked with, I'll say this, with the 1060 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:04,640 Speaker 1: exception of jay Z. Jay Z was probably one of 1061 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 1: the rare cats that, like, it was a pleasure to 1062 00:54:09,280 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 1: work with them. That's why I worked with him, not 1063 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:14,240 Speaker 1: because like I saw like, oh a payday or finally 1064 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 1: like a way out of this crab barrel. You know, 1065 00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:21,480 Speaker 1: it's just that, you know the amount of times I've 1066 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:28,560 Speaker 1: had to Jedi mind trick someone, like say, I'm working 1067 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:30,680 Speaker 1: on a song with somebody and I feel as though, 1068 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:34,080 Speaker 1: you know, a particular like the one is where this 1069 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 1: particular thing is. Like battling over where the one is 1070 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 1: is like one of my main arguments with people. So 1071 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 1: it's to the point where I'll just naturally go to 1072 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 1: another count or whatever, just so that they'll, you know, 1073 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 1: they'll contrary and by nature will just go to the 1074 00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,040 Speaker 1: opposite place until they which is where you want them 1075 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:55,239 Speaker 1: to be anyway, exactly exactly. 1076 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 3: With me, I don't want to hear them. Literally. 1077 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 1: My theory is that if the crash symbol and the 1078 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 1: kick go at the same time, that's that's the beginning 1079 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:08,960 Speaker 1: of the sentence. 1080 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,239 Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, all right. Now here's the thing though, I 1081 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:15,000 Speaker 3: feel like we kind of tarantinoed you in this situation. 1082 00:55:16,000 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 1: I kind of wanted to build up to this movie, 1083 00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 1: but it was so powerful. Yeah, no, man, serious, I 1084 00:55:22,440 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 1: had to talk about it. Yeah, Reglar, I kind of 1085 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:30,400 Speaker 1: want to work backwards because even before don't think twice 1086 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:36,200 Speaker 1: sleep walk with me. Yeah, when I saw it, even then, 1087 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 1: I thought like, oh man, this is awesome my life 1088 00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:42,239 Speaker 1: story like because you never, at least with hip hop, 1089 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 1: especially after nineteen ninety seven and music in general, there's 1090 00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 1: this dividing line between the winners and the losers, where 1091 00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:53,839 Speaker 1: winners are celebrated. 1092 00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,920 Speaker 3: And the losers are forgotten about or never celebrated. 1093 00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:00,440 Speaker 1: To me, it was always good to see the working man, 1094 00:56:00,520 --> 00:56:05,520 Speaker 1: the blue collar working man. And you know in that film, 1095 00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:07,960 Speaker 1: you drive yourself. 1096 00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:10,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, I drive my mom's station wagon around. 1097 00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:15,200 Speaker 1: To tell us all the process of driving to your 1098 00:56:15,239 --> 00:56:19,880 Speaker 1: own gigs the especially tell me about the comedy condo. 1099 00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:21,839 Speaker 7: Yeah, I can tell you I stayed. 1100 00:56:22,160 --> 00:56:25,759 Speaker 3: So every comedian stays in the comedy condo. Yeah. 1101 00:56:25,760 --> 00:56:29,400 Speaker 7: So the comedy condo usually means you'll have a comedy 1102 00:56:29,480 --> 00:56:34,319 Speaker 7: club in a town and like Nashville, Tennessee, and let's 1103 00:56:34,320 --> 00:56:38,040 Speaker 7: say and like Zany's Comedy Club of not making up 1104 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:41,600 Speaker 7: that name. That's a real club in Nationale. It's pretty good. 1105 00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:45,480 Speaker 7: It's a really good club actually, And then the owner 1106 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:48,160 Speaker 7: will be like, well, it's less expensive. If you can 1107 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:52,960 Speaker 7: even imagine this, it's less expensive to buy a condo 1108 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:56,399 Speaker 7: to have all the comedians stay in that condo. Then 1109 00:56:56,440 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 7: it would be to put them up in hotels. So 1110 00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 7: there'll be the club and then to be like the 1111 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:04,760 Speaker 7: comedy condo. And it's like it's always terrible.

Yeah, 1164 00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 1: and I mean, the only thing I could logically say 1165 00:59:37,680 --> 00:59:42,840 Speaker 1: is that you know, if you look at Russell Simmons. 1166 00:59:44,720 --> 00:59:48,720 Speaker 3: In the eighties looking like a fifty year old, but see. 1167 00:59:48,600 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 1: Him now in the early yoga the early aughts, still 1168 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 1: looking like he might be forty nine fifty and he's 1169 00:59:57,440 --> 01:00:03,800 Speaker 1: approaching sixties.

You know, there's a group 1172 01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 1: of people in my life that overthink a lot of 1173 01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:16,800 Speaker 1: things and. 1174 01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:20,760 Speaker 2: Kind of. 1175 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 3: You know, it's it's I think it's just the fear 1176 01:00:26,520 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 3: of failure or the fear of fumbling in public, you know. 1177 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 1: And I know we live in a kind of a 1178 01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 1: social media world and whatever, which everything is documented and 1179 01:00:37,920 --> 01:00:42,080 Speaker 1: no one wants to, you know, try the process in 1180 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:46,760 Speaker 1: front of the world watching them. But I just feel 1181 01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,920 Speaker 1: as though crucial the way that the way that was 1182 01:00:50,000 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 1: explained to me in a way that I truly understood 1183 01:00:52,320 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 1: how meditation works is of course, they use the MacBook 1184 01:00:56,840 --> 01:01:00,000 Speaker 1: pro analogy, which they said, okay, so whenever you get 1185 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 1: the rainbow wheel that you hate and you have like 1186 01:01:02,920 --> 01:01:07,520 Speaker 1: ninety five kajillion windows open on Safari, you know, what's 1187 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 1: the thing you do and you're like, well, you either 1188 01:01:09,040 --> 01:01:13,920 Speaker 1: forced quit or you reset, and breathing literally. 1189 01:01:15,040 --> 01:01:16,320 Speaker 3: Deep breathing literally. 1190 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 1: Slows your mind down and it closes all those windows 1191 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:24,800 Speaker 1: and you make better decisions in life with a clear head, 1192 01:01:25,480 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 1: like where I am right now, my life with spend 1193 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 1: literally with fourteen. 1194 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 3: I mean, Boss Bill will tell you what a nightmare 1195 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 3: I am. 1196 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:36,240 Speaker 5: I can latch all that too. 1197 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,080 Speaker 1: This is why a thing called Team of Mirror exists 1198 01:01:43,160 --> 01:01:48,440 Speaker 1: because logical thinking is out the window with me, because 1199 01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:52,880 Speaker 1: I'm busy trying to figure out, like, you know, which 1200 01:01:52,960 --> 01:01:55,680 Speaker 1: Wu Tang song is gonna go with which David Byrns 1201 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:59,200 Speaker 1: song at next month's show, Like like that's the stuff 1202 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:02,200 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about.

But I'm 1205 01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 1: just saying that I really think that meditation is the answer. 1206 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:20,520 Speaker 1: But I know it just sounds so cosmic and weird. 1207 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:22,480 Speaker 1: And the way that your eyebrows are looking at me, 1208 01:02:22,720 --> 01:02:24,360 Speaker 1: like I don't know if you're full of shit or not. 1209 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 6: No, no, I'm totally agreeing. I just know it's awesome. 1210 01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 10: That's my natural face and it's also like it takes 1211 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 10: sometimes to get to a certain age to get to 1212 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:33,160 Speaker 10: that point.

And then at a certain point I got 1307 01:06:54,280 --> 01:06:57,160 Speaker 7: on stage in college and and uh and it started 1308 01:06:57,160 --> 01:06:59,600 Speaker 7: to click. And in Sleepwalk with Me, I have that 1309 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 7: joke where I say, I'm my my girlfriend's starting to 1310 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 7: get the age where she's thinking about having kids, which 1311 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:08,840 Speaker 7: is exciting because we're gonna have to break up. I 1312 01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:10,960 Speaker 7: don't want to have kids until I'm sure that nothing 1313 01:07:11,040 --> 01:07:13,640 Speaker 7: else good can happen in my life. And that was 1314 01:07:13,720 --> 01:07:14,640 Speaker 7: like the first time. 1315 01:07:15,520 --> 01:07:17,600 Speaker 3: That's the real that was. 1316 01:07:19,560 --> 01:07:21,560 Speaker 7: That was like the first time I made a joke 1317 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:23,520 Speaker 7: on stage. And it's in Sleepwalk with Me. It's like 1318 01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 7: this as a plot point, but like it was the 1319 01:07:25,200 --> 01:07:28,320 Speaker 7: first time where I said something was true and it 1320 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:32,920 Speaker 7: was a joke at the same time. But that's comedy, right, 1321 01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 7: and that's ended up being sort of what I what 1322 01:07:34,840 --> 01:07:37,360 Speaker 7: I do. But like that was the first time. Before that, 1323 01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:41,160 Speaker 7: I was like making jokes about cookie Monster, and then 1324 01:07:41,520 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 7: when I started making jokes about myself, it was better. 1325 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:48,240 Speaker 1: But I'll say that your particular brand of comedy, especially 1326 01:07:48,280 --> 01:07:50,480 Speaker 1: at the time where I really became aware of you, 1327 01:07:51,480 --> 01:07:56,440 Speaker 1: you don't see many comedians on Broadway. Yeah, And so 1328 01:07:57,360 --> 01:08:00,560 Speaker 1: initially I was trying to figure out, well, okay, did 1329 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 1: you at least cut your teeth in Midtown? I was 1330 01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 1: trying to figure out what side of the fence you 1331 01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:07,800 Speaker 1: were on? Were you alternative Brooklyn.

I mean I think ultimately you have to. I 1338 01:08:23,000 --> 01:08:25,600 Speaker 7: mean it's a complex question, but you just have to 1339 01:08:25,720 --> 01:08:29,639 Speaker 7: be you, and it has to you have to get 1340 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:34,320 Speaker 7: good enough that what you're doing can kind of work anywhere. 1341 01:08:34,439 --> 01:08:37,599 Speaker 1: Okay, So the joke has to work with the allt crowd, Yeah, 1342 01:08:38,000 --> 01:08:41,080 Speaker 1: with the I'm smarter than you Kyle's crowd of the 1343 01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:44,759 Speaker 1: village and the hack the drunk hacks that might. 1344 01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:48,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, although they're the hardest, of course. I mean that's 1345 01:08:48,240 --> 01:08:50,040 Speaker 7: why I like that.

It's working because you want it to 1378 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:36,280 Speaker 7: be so human that people just see themselves in it. 1379 01:10:36,320 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 7: And that's what takes forever with stand up, that's what 1380 01:10:39,160 --> 01:10:43,000 Speaker 7: takes for It takes years with material, you know, to 1381 01:10:43,040 --> 01:10:43,679 Speaker 7: get it to that point. 1382 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 3: What takes it so long? Why is it takes so 1383 01:10:45,400 --> 01:10:47,920 Speaker 3: long to find that instead of I just. 1384 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:49,800 Speaker 7: Think because you you have to do this thing of 1385 01:10:49,880 --> 01:10:54,600 Speaker 7: simultaneously having people see themselves in it and laugh and 1386 01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:58,080 Speaker 7: laughter is just like you either get something, get to laugh, 1387 01:10:58,160 --> 01:10:58,679 Speaker 7: or it doesn't. 1388 01:11:00,240 --> 01:11:03,719 Speaker 2: How's the stand up process versus the movie screenplay process different? 1389 01:11:04,000 --> 01:11:08,439 Speaker 7: Well, for me, it's similar because I I write a 1390 01:11:08,560 --> 01:11:12,000 Speaker 7: lot with the screenplay and then I would have friends 1391 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:15,080 Speaker 7: over like this, like literally, like like ten of us 1392 01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:18,040 Speaker 7: in a room just sitting around would read the screenplay 1393 01:11:18,160 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 7: and I would get and I would ask people for 1394 01:11:20,080 --> 01:11:23,360 Speaker 7: notes afterwards. And so I did that about ten times 1395 01:11:23,400 --> 01:11:23,920 Speaker 7: with the movie. 1396 01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:27,200 Speaker 3: And then uh wait, so you focus groups like with 1397 01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:28,360 Speaker 3: ten people in the room. 1398 01:11:28,520 --> 01:11:30,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, isn't that the hardest thing in the World's It 1399 01:11:31,040 --> 01:11:34,719 Speaker 7: was really painful because afterwards you get assaulted with notes 1400 01:11:34,760 --> 01:11:37,280 Speaker 7: and people are just like, you know, Iron Glass, who 1401 01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:39,519 Speaker 7: was my producer ended up being my producer, was just 1402 01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 7: like early on it was just like Mike like, it's 1403 01:11:42,880 --> 01:11:45,240 Speaker 7: just not a movie, like it just doesn't work. And 1404 01:11:45,360 --> 01:11:48,200 Speaker 7: I was like, no, it does, and he was like. 1405 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:50,920 Speaker 7: I was like, it's like it's like The Big Chill 1406 01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:52,760 Speaker 7: set in the world of an improv theater. And he 1407 01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 7: was like, well, the characters have to be more different 1408 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:57,240 Speaker 7: from each other, because at that point the characters were 1409 01:11:57,280 --> 01:12:01,400 Speaker 7: too similar and the conflicts weren't there. And yeah, but 1410 01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:03,600 Speaker 7: but yeah, I mean everything I do is sort of 1411 01:12:04,160 --> 01:12:07,280 Speaker 7: I work I put in front of people. 1412 01:12:07,920 --> 01:12:11,479 Speaker 3: How long did it take? What, like from screenplay to shooting? 1413 01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:12,600 Speaker 3: How long did it take to do? 1414 01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:15,240 Speaker 7: Took about a year and a half writing it. I 1415 01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:19,080 Speaker 7: was in the middle of writing another film called My 1416 01:12:19,160 --> 01:12:22,000 Speaker 7: Girlfriend's Boyfriend, which is an adaptation of one of my shows. 1417 01:12:22,080 --> 01:12:24,720 Speaker 3: Wait, you're going to make that? I might? I might 1418 01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:25,920 Speaker 3: based on the sketch. 1419 01:12:26,560 --> 01:12:30,639 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, it's true, that's not real. Yeah, it's true 1420 01:12:30,680 --> 01:12:33,960 Speaker 7: story the high school one. Yeah yeah, you can play that. 1421 01:12:34,040 --> 01:12:37,000 Speaker 7: You can play that track so I don't have to 1422 01:12:37,080 --> 01:12:42,439 Speaker 7: repeat it seriously. Yeah, yeah, that's true. The gist of 1423 01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:44,040 Speaker 7: it I'll tell you the gist of it is, when 1424 01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:46,519 Speaker 7: I was in high school, I went out with this 1425 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 7: girl and she was like and I was.

This is going to be fine. And 1429 01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 7: then and she invites me to meet her parents and 1430 01:13:03,080 --> 01:13:05,439 Speaker 7: I go, and I was like, oh, this is gonna 1431 01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:08,439 Speaker 7: be my big moment.

I was at La Quinta in. 1464 01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:52,200 Speaker 3: And Walla Walla, Washington. 1465 01:14:53,439 --> 01:14:57,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, at Lakina in and uh, and I had a 1466 01:14:57,160 --> 01:14:59,360 Speaker 7: dream that there was a guided missile headed towards my 1467 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,479 Speaker 7: room and I was like, I jumped out of bed. 1468 01:15:02,560 --> 01:15:05,840 Speaker 7: I was like, there's military personnel in my dream there. 1469 01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:08,680 Speaker 7: And I was like, what's the plan And they said, uh, 1470 01:15:09,520 --> 01:15:12,320 Speaker 7: the missile coordinates are set on you. And so I 1471 01:15:12,439 --> 01:15:14,600 Speaker 7: decided in my dream, as it turns out it was 1472 01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:17,799 Speaker 7: in my life as well, to jump out the window. 1473 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:20,719 Speaker 7: So as to detonate outside the window for the sake 1474 01:15:20,760 --> 01:15:24,920 Speaker 7: of the platoon.
