So I started clean. 217 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 4: That attracted the churches that was coming in buying up 218 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 4: all the tickets because they was using it for getaways 219 00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 4: for they particular ministries. By me being a church boy, 220 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 4: growing up in it, working at the church, I know 221 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 4: church Now, this is my lane, you know what I'm saying. 222 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 4: And so once I started seeing seeing how profitable it 223 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,079 Speaker 4: was and I could see I could see being successful 224 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 4: in it, I stayed in it. 225 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 2: Now once you had the five hundred dollars first time, 226 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:58,360 Speaker 2: the five hundred dollars is the bar? Did you think 227 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 2: after that, like, Okay, I'm finna make five hundred every 228 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 2: single time I go out, Yes or more yes, and 229 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 2: then and then you have to fall back.

Yeah, oh definitely, reality chick come in now. 232 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 4: The ain't coming in because especially folks that's not in 233 00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 4: my lane. So when I started, and you know, the 234 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 4: comics here, I leave Terry Groves, Dave Kier, all these guys, 235 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 4: we all kind of start around the same time.

What is when the 251 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 2: church meets the club? What's that about? 252 00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 4: So that was so I've done well, I've done I 253 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,559 Speaker 4: think sixteen projects. I've been doing comedy twenty years. I 254 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 4: think I got sixteen projects that I've done in twenty years. 255 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 4: And when the Church went the club, I think that 256 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 4: was maybe my fifth project, one of my favorites at 257 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 4: that because I felt like it's a thin line between 258 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:44,680 Speaker 4: the church and the club. So I'm a theme writer, 259 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 4: so everything I write about is it got a theme 260 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 4: to it. So it's a thin line between the church 261 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 4: and the club. You got people who hang out at 262 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,839 Speaker 4: church like it's a club, you know, like my mom 263 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 4: and my grandmother and them, that State Club. Even though 264 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 4: it's church, it's stay club. They just everything they do 265 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 4: is at the church. So you got folk who hang 266 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:06,640 Speaker 4: out at church like it's a club. And then you 267 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 4: got folk who go to the club religiously. Okay, these 268 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,959 Speaker 4: people come every Friday, every Saturday. 269 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 3: They in the club. 270 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,959 Speaker 4: You know, men try to holler at women in the 271 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,559 Speaker 4: church and the club just the lingo was different, but 272 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 4: men gonna try to shoot, They shot regardless, you know. 273 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,719 Speaker 4: So it's just so many similarities with them both. And 274 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:29,719 Speaker 4: that's what that whole project was about. I was just 275 00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 4: exposing all the similarities of the church and the club 276 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,839 Speaker 4: in a funny way. Yeah. 277 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 2: So when you were doing that, were they any pastors 278 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:45,079 Speaker 2: when you would go in certain churches that felt kind 279 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,959 Speaker 2: of like funny about that, Like they look at you like, yo, ma'am, 280 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,719 Speaker 2: we can't have you back, thank you? 281 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you know, because at that time, comedy 282 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:58,319 Speaker 4: was still a little taboo in church, you know, so 283 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 4: a lot of church, especially tradition churches. They really weren't 284 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 4: feeling it. But I think because they knew my dad 285 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 4: and grandfather and they trusted me. I wasn't coming in 286 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,120 Speaker 4: there to piss on their congregation, you know what I mean. 287 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 4: I wasn't going in there to tear down anything that 288 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 4: they have built up. So I think proceed. Yeah, I 289 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 4: think I came in with a little trust, so they 290 00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:23,960 Speaker 4: received my jokes maybe a little better. Plus I know 291 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 4: the bid you know, I know I would throw all 292 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 4: that in my jokes, so they know, oh he no 293 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 4: Bible and stuff like that. And I think that that's 294 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 4: what helped me, And maybe not another comic who just 295 00:14:35,040 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 4: coming there with jokes but really don't have no foundation 296 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 4: in the church in them, you know type of thing. 297 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: Have you ever merged the church and the club and 298 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 2: went too far?

They just expect that 503 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 2: because you're in the service industry, you're supposed to just 504 00:25:18,119 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 2: do whatever you do for free, for free. But the 505 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,879 Speaker 2: trip part about it is that many of them are 506 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 2: also in the service industry and they get paid.

Not for the kids, 516 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 4: not for little kids, for people our age who still 517 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 4: messed up.

People still mad at they moms and 525 00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 4: there and they farted fifty years old still And so 526 00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 4: for my experience, answer to answer your question, man, my 527 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 4: dad was he was one hundred man. 528 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 3: My dad told me. 529 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 4: He said, man, listen, I did not want to be 530 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 4: no pastor. He was working for Specs Liquor, and he 531 00:26:38,760 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 4: said he was enjoined. Look him working for Specs and 532 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,680 Speaker 4: making his money on the side, because I think he 533 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 4: was probably stealing some stealing. He was bootlegging some respects, 534 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 4: litter out of his truck when he leave work. So 535 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,399 Speaker 4: he said he was living it up. But then he 536 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 4: said he got the call, you know how black people 537 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 4: called it. Got the car kept his life kept being 538 00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,440 Speaker 4: you know, so boom. He joined his church and he 539 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:03,600 Speaker 4: was associate minister at the church for a little while, 540 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:07,479 Speaker 4: still working at Specs, and then uh he started preaching 541 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 4: across Houston and then one of the churches they was like, yo, 542 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 4: we like your style, swag, your word whatever, and we 543 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 4: want you to be the pastor. And so my dad 544 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 4: said he had to let the specs go, and then 545 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 4: he became the pastor you know, of that church. But 546 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,159 Speaker 4: he was like, but he never never wanted to do it, 547 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 4: and so he would tell me, so, look, unfortunately, you 548 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 4: my son, and I can't get the other what he said, 549 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:38,680 Speaker 4: you my son. 550 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:40,639 Speaker 3: So I can't get the. 551 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 4: Other kids at the church to do stuff if my 552 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 4: son don't do it. So you got to be like 553 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 4: the leader. So I've been like a leader all my life. 554 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 4: Like he just told me, you got to lead, m 555 00:27:53,560 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 4: I mean, you got to be the leader. 556 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 3: And so this is how we get paid. I mean, 557 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 3: this is the family business. 558 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 4: So at church, man, I was always the you know, 559 00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 4: when we had Sunday school and vacation Bible school and 560 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 4: all that type of stuff. I would always have to 561 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 4: be the one to get up when they say, hey, 562 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 4: what did y'all learn in this high school class? I 563 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 4: couldn't just sit there with it, like, man, what y'all learned? 564 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 4: I always had to be the one to get up, 565 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 4: hey with what we learned today about you know, to 566 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 4: lead it off and then people follow suit. And so 567 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,680 Speaker 4: I've always been like, you know, and like I say, 568 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 4: even though it was maybe not fair, he explained it 569 00:28:33,320 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 4: to me. 570 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 3: It's so clear it was like you got to do this. 571 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 2: You know. 572 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 4: It wasn't done to me like that. It was explained 573 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 4: to me. And so I never really had a problem 574 00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 4: with it. So you never felt pressure, never felt pressure. 575 00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 4: I've always been a celebrity, and I mean that from 576 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 4: I was a celebrity in the church first, you know 577 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 4: what I'm saying that. 578 00:28:51,360 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 2: You know what, man, I'm glad you mentioned that. Because 579 00:28:55,400 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: pastor's children, the children of the pastor US liberties, people like, oh, 580 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: that's the past. 581 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 3: Son, you can't do nothing. 582 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 4: The reason why we the reason why they flipped. So 583 00:29:07,760 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 4: so like for instance, if I would come around somewhere 584 00:29:11,520 --> 00:29:16,400 Speaker 4: and boy smoking weedy, h he go, he go markus 585 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 4: or your daddy kill you. You know your daddy kid, 586 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 4: you smoke now because I was a leader and I 587 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,360 Speaker 4: ain't really didn't even want it. I was like, yeah, 588 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 4: he probably would, but I don't want to smoke. But 589 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 4: other preachers kids, they want to show them that they 590 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 4: are regular too. So now by passed the weed, y'all 591 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:39,400 Speaker 4: still on we what a cocaine at because they they 592 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 4: want to show I'm not only am I regular, but 593 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 4: I'm even I'm way better or way worse than you, 594 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 4: you know. And so they always go to extra mile 595 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 4: to try to be normal, you know. And that was 596 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 4: what a lot of preachers kids suffer from. Now, preacher's 597 00:29:56,840 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 4: daughters loved them because they always trying to get back 598 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 4: to their parents. Always daughter love of prison's daughters. 599 00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:10,440 Speaker 2: Ain't that amazing how that works out? Man? Like you 600 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 2: got a father who's in the house with you, you 601 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 2: got your mother in the house with you, and they're, 602 00:30:20,600 --> 00:30:23,360 Speaker 2: you know, giving you these values, and they giving you 603 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 2: a good home and a lifestyle and all this stuff. 604 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 2: And all you got to do is just basically follow 605 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 2: some rules like not act sletty yes for lack of 606 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 2: better word, but that's a word. And you decide, you 607 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 2: know what I want to be study like I don't. 608 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to do all these things. I don't. 609 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 2: And I think what happens a lot of times is 610 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:51,480 Speaker 2: that these pastors they try to make their daughters perfect. 611 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 2: For sure. 612 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 3: Oh it's a lot of pressure. 613 00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 2: That's and that's a lot of it's a lot of 614 00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 2: pressure for anyone to be perfect, anybody, because none of 615 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 2: us are perfect. Will never be personal. But I have 616 00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:06,840 Speaker 2: seen a few pastors, including my best friend, who did 617 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:08,960 Speaker 2: it the right way. Okay, you got to give them 618 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: a certain amount of latitude as they go along and 619 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: as they age, you know, and they got to have 620 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 2: a little bit of freedom. You cannot just lock these 621 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: kids up, man and expect them to do everything right. 622 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 3: If you hear them stories from them, Pridgers kids conferences, 623 00:31:25,920 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 3: how they can listen to secular music, couldn't go to 624 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:31,920 Speaker 3: the movies, you know, see all this.
