174
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:19,400

00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 4: into comedy? I guess you're not. You're not angry enough

178
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 4: for football. Well, football was fun. I got enjoyed it,

179
00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 4: but I couldn't catch the ball. Like they would make

180
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 4: fun of me. I was part of them, and I

181
00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 4: and I would cracked so many jokes on the defense

182
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 4: that they couldn't wait to get me out on the

183
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 4: field and they would just hit me for no reason.

184
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're a wide receiver.

185
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, they called the split in back then.

186
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 1: So where'd you go to college? I went to Rutgers.

187
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 1: How did you get into comedy?

188
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 4: So my cousin was worked at the Apollo. Showtime at

189
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:59,480
Speaker 4: the Apollo, and I wanted to go see Damon Wayiams.

190
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,800
Speaker 1: She was special. And then ninety one, ninety one, ninety two,

191
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 1: and that's during your Living Color or what years?

192
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, ninety two Living Color just came out. Yeah, so

193
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 4: I went to see it and Sean Wayne's was the opener,

194
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,560
Speaker 4: and Sean Wayne's we had the same haircut, we had

195
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,559
Speaker 4: the exact same Paisley shirt with the slash, the exact

196
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:23,600
Speaker 4: same shoes. I was like, Hey, I want to do

197
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 4: stand up. So my cousin told me go to the

198
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:29,520
Speaker 4: Uptown Comedy Club. It's right around the corner from the

199
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 4: follow Yeah, from the Apollo's one hundred history. So at

200
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:37,240
Speaker 4: this point I'm eighteen, I'm trying to get to the Apollo.

201
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,560
Speaker 4: But every week I got there late because that was

202
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 4: the time when they would say, all right, well it's

203
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 4: about you got to go through the Holland Tunnel. Then

204
00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 4: you gotta go all the way uptown. Then you got

205
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 4: all the way through Manhattan. The you gotta find parking,

206
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,600
Speaker 4: and I'll say, okay, that'll take ten minutes. That was

207
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 4: my thinking back then. Yeah, I thought I could do

208
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 4: everything in a half.

209
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,040
Speaker 1: Hour, right right, I st don't take that way.

210
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you know, time doesn't work like that, and

211
00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,599
Speaker 4: I would always be late. So the first time I

212
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,200
Speaker 4: went there, I was too late to get in. The

213
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 4: second time I went there, I was late to get in.

214
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,079
Speaker 4: The Third time I went there, it was too late

215
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 4: to get in. And I said, I'm a comedian. I

216
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 4: thought that would help. They said, well, come to this

217
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,480
Speaker 4: comedy workshop that we do every Wednesday. So I went

218
00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:16,560
Speaker 4: to the comedy workshop and that's where I met Will Silvans.

219
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:19,079

220

318
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 4: blast since day one. Yeah, because see I grew up

319
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:20,920
Speaker 4: in bad neighborhood.

320
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: When you were eighteen years old, you could do that

321
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: on stage.

322
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 4: Well, I didn't start when I was eighteen. I started

323
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,680
Speaker 4: when I was nineteen because by the time I got

324
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 4: on stage, it was December and I celebrated my birthday

325
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,920
Speaker 4: then I got on stage. I got on stage right

326
00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,480
Speaker 4: after my nineteenth birthday.

327
00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 2: My larger point is at that young yeah, first show

Speaker 2: you ever did.

329
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 4: I was a monster with the stammer crushing. I was

330
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 4: a beast with the snaps. I wasn't crushing on stage,

331
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,480
Speaker 4: but like I said, if the material isn't working, something's

332
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,319
Speaker 4: going to work. Because I grew up in bad neighborhoods.

333
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,080
Speaker 1: So you cut your teeth like in middle school. But basically, yeah.

334
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,120
Speaker 4: I was always that kid that was making fun of people.

335
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 4: When I was in college, I was shut down to campus.

336
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 4: People be afraid to walk past me because I'd be

433
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 4: The thing about bombing is that the Bill's character it does.

434
00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 4: It makes you so much better because you learn not

435
00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:21,080

00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:31,080
Speaker 1: Come on stage like two weeks ago.

441
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 4: I'm hosting the show, and you know, I bring people

442
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 4: when I host the show. If it's a small crowd, I.

443
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:38,120
Speaker 1: Just bring people on stage to talk.

444
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 4: So makes the interactive cracks into it. So that's the

445
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,480
Speaker 4: best way to create a joke because the joke comes

446
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:44,200
Speaker 4: from the situation.

447
00:18:44,320 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 1: It's always different.

448
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 4: So there's a guy says, there's a guy yelling out,

449
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 4: let's go, let's go. He keeps yelling out let's go.

450
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 4: And I'm not really paying any attention, but he's.

451
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,639
Speaker 1: Saying that to you, like get off the stage.

452
00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,760
Speaker 4: He's yelling let's go, like you know when you're on crowd,

453
00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,240
Speaker 4: there's the audience like yeah.

454
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,480
Speaker 1: Let's go, Yeah, yeah, let's go. Yeah yeah.

455
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 4: But he wasn't doing it in like a very macho.

456
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:11,280
Speaker 1: Yeah.

457
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 4: He was like, let's gow, let which is fine. The

458
00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 4: audience loved him. I said, my man, come in here.

459
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 4: So I bring him on stage and I said are

00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 4: you single?

461
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 1: And he says yes. So I said, all the.

462
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,640
Speaker 4: Single ladies in the house go ah. Nobody said anything.

463
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,920
Speaker 4: It was quiet. So then I said, okay, come back

00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 4: it means too. He goes oh. And then I said, sir,

469
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 4: I don't want it to come off wrong.

470
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: Is this in New York City?

00:21:28,800 --> 00:21:30,600

Speaker 1: Is it in Edison?

514
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 4: When they brought me to that hospital, I think I

554
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 4: we were laughing, we were joking. He said, as soon

555
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 4: as you sat down next to Tracy, everybody that we

556
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:14,840

00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 4: and come back. Every night I have a dream of

561
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:31,160
Speaker 4: God saying, hey, one more, one more, one more baby,

562
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:36,080
Speaker 4: that's two. Final destination, the Black version, Final destination, the

563
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 4: BT version.

564
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:38,919
Speaker 2: How did the brain recover? Like, what do you do

565
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: for brain recovery? Little magnets on your brain should know

566
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 2: well from what.

567
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,040
Speaker 4: I was told by the neurologists, the fact that comedians

568
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,200
Speaker 4: think so much that we have to use our brains constantly,

569
00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:53,760
Speaker 4: like every time on stage or in the moment UH

570
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:57,520
Speaker 4: analyzing the crowd, talking to people, that our brains are

571
00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:01,400
Speaker 4: so well rounded that when parts of your brain go down,

572
00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 4: the other parts just pick up the slack. So basically

573
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,400
Speaker 4: when you're in a vegetative state is because one part

574
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,439
Speaker 4: of your brain shuts down, but the other parts of

575
00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 4: their brain.

576
00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:11,080
Speaker 1: I'm not strong enough to pick up the slack.

577
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:14,520
Speaker 4: But comedians are so well rounded in word repetition and

578
00:24:14,560 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 4: what we say and repeating jokes and meeting people every

579
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 4: night and remembering names and faces and locations and what's

580
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,160
Speaker 4: happening and what's going on. Like, we are very well

581
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:27,920
Speaker 4: rounded people, Like we know songs, we feel everything.

582
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 2: And you can feel all your toes and all your

583
00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:30,439
Speaker 2: fingers and everything.

584
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, gosh, man, it could have been so much fucking work,

585
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:34,960
Speaker 1: so much worse.

586
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,119
Speaker 4: I thank god that I'm here. That's so, I tell people,

587
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 4: I have no reason to be angry at all. I

588
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 4: have no reason to be angry at all because I

00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,199
Speaker 4: look at my grandchildren, I look at my mother, I

590
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,000
Speaker 4: look at the floor, I look at the sky. I'm alive.

591
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,640
Speaker 4: I have no reason to be angry. Everybody's doing well.

Speaker 1: Shit, that's wild. Grand kids are happy, mom is happy.

00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 2: would see you drink on stage. I think, remember you

832
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,279

00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:32,920

846
00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,480
Speaker 4: the thing about it, and I had to come to that.

847
00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,359
Speaker 4: I would say, Hey, I don't drink. I don't drink,

848
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:07,439
Speaker 4: I don't touch alcohol. Let me get hit that though. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

849
00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,800
Speaker 4: You don't drink alcohol. When you sniffed coked, you ain't sober.

850
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:15,400
Speaker 4: You're a drug addict. I said, this is different. See,

851
00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 4: I haven't had any alcohol though, so I'm sober.

852
00:37:19,320 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 2: So twenty five years ago. What were you doing in

853
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 2: the nineties? Were you doing cocaine everything?

854
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 1: That's what it was.

855
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:27,560
Speaker 4: Heroin wasn't any good because heroin you do.

856
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:31,319
Speaker 1: Like were you doing acid and mushrooms and stuff? No?

857
00:37:31,400 --> 00:37:31,719
Speaker 4: I didn't.

858
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,160
Speaker 2: Psychedelics, I didn't. You never had a psychedelic experience.

859
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:39,440
Speaker 4: I did mushrooms and I got paranoid, and I did

860
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 4: with a psychedelic experience. I would get paranoid and never.

861
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:43,239
Speaker 3: Do that again.

862
00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 1: Really, yeah, it just wasn't for you. It just wasn't mushrooms.

863
00:37:46,239 --> 00:37:48,839
Speaker 4: I went on stage on mushrooms once.

864
00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:50,520
Speaker 1: That was horrible.

865
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,640
Speaker 4: I thought the audience with puppets, oh you were high.

866
00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 4: That it wasn't a little bit like it was at

867
00:37:56,080 --> 00:38:02,520
Speaker 4: the event. Dollars I think, I think, I think at

868
00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 4: this point little Penny was good with Chris playing little Penny,

869
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,880
Speaker 4: and they all like little Penny. They all like that

870
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 4: little puppet the entire Yeah. When uh, Chris Rock was

871
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:19,040
Speaker 4: doing Penny hardaway puppet, he was a little Penny.

872
00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:20,919
Speaker 1: I don't know he was. He was a voice. Chris

873
00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:22,120
Speaker 1: Rock was a voice. I didn't know that.

874
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:26,080
Speaker 4: But in my mind, the audience whatever, they look like

875
00:38:26,239 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 4: they have puppets. To me, I was tripping and there

876
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:31,959
Speaker 4: was a comedian named Maya de Giorgio, and she said

877
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:37,760
Speaker 4: all herself, voice going arties high, and all the comedians laughing,

878
00:38:37,960 --> 00:38:43,600
Speaker 4: Oh no, making it way worse. I thought I was

879
00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 4: being funny. I thought I was being funny, but they

880
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:52,040
Speaker 4: all disliked puppets. I mean it's it's a you know

881
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,560
Speaker 4: you have a bomber. You don't know you bombed a bomb.

882
00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,240
Speaker 4: I think you killed And people are like, I don't.

883
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:59,359
Speaker 2: Know if I thought I was, but I've definitely come

884
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,719
Speaker 2: on sage, realize how bad it was until like the

885
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,319
Speaker 2: way the comics looked at me after the show, you

886
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,000
Speaker 2: know what I mean, You get like the like avoiding,

887
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: like look away.

888
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,839
Speaker 1: You're like, oh shit, I did that bad.

889
00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:14,239
Speaker 4: They look you up and down, or you know you

890
00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,680
Speaker 4: had a bad show. When you're standing in Mexico comedian

891
00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 4: that had a good set and they come to go

892
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,120
Speaker 4: you are funny, you are so funny, and look at

893
00:39:23,120 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 4: you and go.

894
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 1: Yeah you good. Yeah yeah, if.

895
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:34,719
Speaker 4: You were good that oh my god. But the person

896
00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 4: saying next to you, oh you were so funny you

897
00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,400
Speaker 4: were and they push you out the way. Oh you

898
00:39:39,520 --> 00:39:42,560
Speaker 4: are party bro bro bro yo.

899
00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:45,799
Speaker 1: You anyway, you so funny?

900
00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 4: They stare you the whole time. Somebody need to write

901
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,440
Speaker 4: some jokes. I ain't gonna say it is with somebody

902
00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:52,760
Speaker 4: need to get they act together?

903
00:39:52,840 --> 00:39:53,319
Speaker 3: What is that?

904
00:39:53,440 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 2: What is why comedy? It forces the audience to be

905
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,399
Speaker 2: brutally honest. Like you can go to a music show

906
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 2: that's not that good, right, But you're not going to

907
00:40:01,239 --> 00:40:02,719
Speaker 2: criticize the musician afterwards.

908
00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 1: You're just gonna go on and not really think about it.

909
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:10,279
Speaker 2: Because what about comedy forces polarization where you either love

910
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 2: the comic or it just didn't do it for you.

911
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,000
Speaker 4: Because everybody wants to be a comedian, and when people

912
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:17,840
Speaker 4: go to a comedy show, you notice when the comedian

913
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,040
Speaker 4: isn't doing well. You notice every mistake. When you go

914
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:23,719
Speaker 4: to a music show, you're not a musician. You don't

915
00:40:23,760 --> 00:40:26,160
Speaker 4: know if the band missed the beat, or you don't

916
00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,759
Speaker 4: know if the singing is often off miss and then

917
00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 4: the band goes and you say to the band, that

918
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:33,640
Speaker 4: was a great show. Oh no, I missed the entire

919
00:40:33,719 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 4: riff and fucking Keith.

920
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 1: Was off the key and blah blah blah, and.

921
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 4: They're arguing about you got to come in quicker on that.

922
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,759
Speaker 4: We don't see that. But when you're a comedian and

923
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,240
Speaker 4: it's just you under the spotlight.

924
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:45,840
Speaker 1: You see every every lyricure.

925
00:40:45,480 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 4: Thing you do, the audience will just bag on it

926
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,280
Speaker 4: and they think they're better than you. Howbout the funny

927
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:53,000
Speaker 4: I could have did that?

928
00:40:53,200 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, I say my money?

929
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:56,920
Speaker 2: Have you ever done this. I brought this woman was

930
00:40:57,200 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 2: heckling me and my friend. We were co hosting, and

931
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:04,600
Speaker 2: it was not a good venue for comedy. It was

932
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:07,239
Speaker 2: this restaurant. It's kind of by here, I want to

933
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 2: say fifty fourth Street or something. It was like a

934
00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,280
Speaker 2: whatever Italian restaurant. I doubt it's still there. It's horrible.

935
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,880
Speaker 2: The room was horrible. It wasn't conducive for comedy. Everybody

936
00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 2: was always in bed. But the audiences were tough there

937
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,799
Speaker 2: because I don't know, it was just was like a

938
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,719
Speaker 2: curse rim. So I go up there with my friend.

939
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,640

Speaker 2: and uptight.

1099
00:48:31,239 --> 00:48:34,799
Speaker 4: Well, you know the thing about comedy on stage when

1100
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:38,279
Speaker 4: you make your life a part of your act and

1101
00:48:38,360 --> 00:48:40,600
Speaker 4: then you think that this is going to bomb because

1102
00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:42,600
Speaker 4: it's happened to me and it's really hurt and annoydience

1103
00:48:42,680 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 4: is laughing at your pain. Like I have a joke

1104
00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 4: where I say, you know what I say, I'm ugly.

1105
00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:50,320
Speaker 4: I don't think i'm only but if I say it

1106
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:52,719
Speaker 4: on stage, it makes people comfortable with me.

1107
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:53,760
Speaker 1: People start laughing.

1108
00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:55,680
Speaker 4: If I come on say and say I'm good looking,

1109
00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 4: you ain't no guy, damn because he looked like Frozone.

1110
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 4: Look at that man because we got his super suit.

1111
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:05,640
Speaker 4: But if I come out and if I said that ugly,

1112
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 4: it was like, oh, he's near enough. It makes me

1113
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:10,160
Speaker 4: a little bit easier to get along that right, right, right,

1114
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 4: that's good for a comedy, but it's not good for

1115
00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:13,200
Speaker 4: real life.

1116
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 1: It's not good for your esteem.

1117
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's that. It's not good for real life because

1118
00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 4: I walked from to a woman and I said, I know,

1119
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 4: a girl as beautiful as you would never talk to

1120
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,279
Speaker 4: a man as ugly as me. And she looked me

1121
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,800
Speaker 4: up and down and said, at least you understand.

1122
00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,880
Speaker 1: That's cold. That's cold to the bone.

Speaker 4: Yeah, cold to the bone.

1124
00:49:31,040 --> 00:49:33,280
Speaker 1: So we chugged a lack of confidence.

1125
00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 4: We take the hardest parts of our life and we

1126
00:49:36,239 --> 00:49:38,640
Speaker 4: put it out there to the public. And the thing

1127
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,720
Speaker 4: about it, if it's something that's really insecure or painful

1128
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,279
Speaker 4: to you, that's you who was going to make him laugh, right.
