17
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,880

18
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,480
Speaker 4: months ago. I was in Detroit. I was in House

19
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 4: of Comedy.

20
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 1: You're touring or just one off went off.

21
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 4: I've been hitting up spots, but I haven't like, actually

22
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 4: put you know, do the the graphic. We're on tour.

23
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 4: You know, I didn't do anyth of that. So I'm

24
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 4: in Detroit House of Comedy. Meanwhile, it's it's the home

25
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 4: of where my ex lives. She is in Detroit.

26
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 1: She moves in the audience.

27
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 4: No, No, she was actually gonna come see a show. Think

28
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 4: she moved back to Detroit, she bought a house. She is,

29
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 4: we're lesbians. Of course, we're still friends. We're still in

30
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 4: the group, chat together with her family, and she has

31
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:32,039
Speaker 4: a new girlfriend and we're all BFFs. It's fine. We're

32
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 4: living great. So I'm there in Detroit, I'm feeling I'm

33
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 4: feeling good. I was like, this is gonna be a

34
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 4: great weekend. No, Jill Scott is performing across the streets

35
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 4: from House of Comedy, and it is sold out. And

36
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 4: then two doors down, I think Mike Epps, people from

37
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 4: Wilding Out, Nick Cannon.

38
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:58,200
Speaker 1: Are So the audience was spread spread out.

39
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 4: The whole strip was of important people that was way

40
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,280
Speaker 4: more important than me. So when I tell you the

41
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 4: sales were low.

42
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 1: I don't like to hear you say that. Why of

43
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 1: equal importance?

44
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 4: Of equal importance. Yes, But when I tell you, when

45
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 4: I walked into the room, it was not. It showed

46
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 4: me that. I was like, oh, wow, are people here?

47
00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 1: So so it was empty.

48
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 4: It was not empty, but it also was not it

49
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 4: was it was it was It was probably like twenty

50
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:27,919
Speaker 4: people and it was a it's a big, pretty big room.

51
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 4: So the first show was because I did four shows.

52
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:37,320
Speaker 4: So the first show was decent, you know, a small crowd,

53
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 4: but they you know, they fuck with me, so it

54
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:44,480
Speaker 4: was great. The next show, it started pouring raining, pouring raining,

55
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 4: and it took us a while to get people in,

56
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:48,520
Speaker 4: and they were like, we might have to call it

57
00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 4: and I said, if we call it, God's plan, but

58
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:56,519
Speaker 4: they didn't. A group of fifteen older black people come

59
00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:59,959
Speaker 4: in and I said, yes, that's who. That's smart people.

60
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 4: He was so good. I was like, family's here. But

61
00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 4: then I was like, I actually hate my family. Why

62
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 4: this is a bad time. So I start talking about

63
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 4: I'm gay. They immediately they were like absolutely not. So

64
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 4: then I'm like I'm literally ten minutes in and I'm like,

65
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 4: oh shit, I got a whole hour. These people really

66
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,960
Speaker 4: not fucking with me. So they're not laughing with me,

67
00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 4: they're laughing at me. And now they're yelling at me.

68
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 4: They're like, you just haven't had the right dick yet,

69
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:35,120
Speaker 4: that type of that type of homophobia. They were like,

70
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 4: God will take care of you like that yelling at me,

71
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 4: and it's like not it's a small room, so echoing,

72
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 4: you're bouncing off and there's like men, women, cousins, all this,

73
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 4: and so I stopped. I said, wait a minute, why

74
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 4: are y'all here? And they always like one of the women,

75
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 4: our cousin told us to come here, and so I

76
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,200
Speaker 4: was like, so it's your fault. So then they all

77
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,000
Speaker 4: start laughing because I was like, so it's your fault

78
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: because that everybody hates them because you didn't tell them

79
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,800
Speaker 4: that I'm gay. And I was like, so you know

80
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 4: what that means, you're gay, because they're trying to figure

81
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 4: out why the fuck you want to come see me.

82
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,600
Speaker 4: So then they said any and every homophobic thing that

83
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 4: you could possibly say, and the club no security. They

84
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,000
Speaker 4: could have rushed, they could have did a hate rhyme. Yeah,

85
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 4: Stacey Adams shoe at me. It could have happened to me.

86
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: Nobody stopped them. It was so bad that the young

87
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 4: white girls were like, we like your jeans. I said, Susan,

88
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:49,920
Speaker 4: you're not saying it's not a helpful thing.

89
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 5: Were they like hostile, like like were they like middle

90
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 5: school kids?

91
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,400
Speaker 4: Oh? No, no, no, they were hatred in their Yes, yeah,

92
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,039
Speaker 4: there was one that I had asked him a question.

93
00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 4: He's like, I'm not listening to you, and then they

94
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 4: all laughed. It felt like cafeteria, right, but for people

95
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 4: who are almost in a nursing home. So it was

96
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,720
Speaker 4: I had never and and then again I'm waiting. I

97
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:19,599
Speaker 4: was like, this would be a perfect time for my

98
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,200
Speaker 4: ex to just roll up, roll up with her girlfriend

99
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 4: to come see this and be like, yes, I'm in

100
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 4: a better place. This is why we broke up, you

101
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 4: know what I mean, and the whole and they would

102
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 4: interact with me. They would laugh when I speak to

103
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:36,119
Speaker 4: them because they thought that was funny. But they would

104
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,400
Speaker 4: not leave. They would not leave, and I needed money,

105
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,839
Speaker 4: so I'll tell I'll take the homophobia for the check.

106
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 4: I was like, well, I'm not going to back out.

107
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,559
Speaker 4: I did a whole hour. I did the whole hour.

108
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 4: I tried to I try to buy some of them shots.

109
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,520
Speaker 4: They didn't want my gay shots. They didn't want nothing.

110
00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,279
Speaker 4: The women I try to like. At the end, I

111
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 4: was like, thank you so much for staying. They want

112
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 4: no parts of me. They thought I was. There was

113
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 4: one guy that was like talking to me, but he

114
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 4: was thinking, like, you're not really gay, and it's like sir,

115
00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 4: my strap is in my person the research, I'm definitely

116
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 4: a homosexual. Yeah, but it was it was scary because

117
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 4: I was like, anything can happen. But also it was

118
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 4: like disappointing black people is a different type of disapplinance.

119
00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 4: You feel like you let down your ancestors. You're like,

120
00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:39,919
Speaker 4: Sojourner Truth is rolling over in her grave. Harriet Tubman

121
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 4: did not free slaves for this, for this, for me

122
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 4: to bomb in Detroit at the House of Comedy. And

123
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 4: so that was the first night. So then the next

124
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 4: day I tell my agent, I'm like, I'm in turmoil.

125
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,919
Speaker 4: I'm just like i gotta leave. I gotta get on

126
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:00,760
Speaker 4: the next flight out of here. And she's like, okay,

127
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 4: I'm gonna talk to them. You don't have to do tonight.

128
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,760
Speaker 4: And I said, oh no, I'm gonna need that money.

129
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:06,840
Speaker 4: I'm gonna need to go in to back. I said,

130
00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go back. I needed the back. And it

131
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 4: wasn't even a back, it wasn't even a bad And

132
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 4: they were like, this is so funny. Because the girl,

133
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 4: the girl who was here last week, it was a snowstorm,

134
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 4: so we had to cancel one of her shows. And

135
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 4: then The next day, like fifteen people showed up. It

136
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 4: was Embetazine. I said, so, y'all hate women. I was

137
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,640
Speaker 4: a house of comedy hates women. So it's not just me.

138
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 1: This house of comedy a big Detroit.

139
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 4: Yeah.

140
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, No show I did on my tour in North

141
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: America was Detroit.

142
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 4: Oh, I believe it.

143
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:43,360
Speaker 1: Toughest audience. Oh, Philly and Detroit were tough.

144
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 5: No.

145
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 4: I love Philly, Philly love me down, but.

146
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 1: It was Philly was tough. I might have just been off,

147
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 1: but Detroit was tough.

148
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 4: They don't want to when I tell you, they did

149
00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:53,760
Speaker 4: not leave. It was like you hate me. Leave. They

150
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 4: were said no, no, I pay my money. I'm gonna make

Speaker 1: Yeah.

153
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,320

154
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 4: we're staying until you dropped the mic. I think they

155
00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 4: wanted to bully me into stopping. And I said, oh,

Speaker 4: It's like when you I.

281
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:19,000
Speaker 5: Think, I think every single comedian has anxiety and depression.

282
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,680
Speaker 5: Name one comedian that doesn't have Name one successful comedian

283
00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:27,040

Speaker 4: Even if she does, I can't tell.

289
00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,800
Speaker 1: I say that as one of her best friends. I

290
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 1: can't tell because we learned how to mask.

291
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 4: She's always loving light and like every show I've been

292
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:50,120

Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it's part of your brain. It's fine.

297
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 1: It's like every living creature has anxiety.

298
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 4: Being on the prescription fucking help tremendously. But I didn't

299
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 4: have anxiety until I got sober. Didn't know that. I

300
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,800
Speaker 4: was probably masking it because.

301
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: You haven't when you were a little kid.

302
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:14,840

00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,120
Speaker 4: I had a few, but they weren't big on that.

310
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:29,280
Speaker 4: That wasn't there to think.

311
00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: Really, that's a Baptist Methodist thing.

312
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,800
Speaker 4: I don't know. It was just like old school, like

313
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,120

Speaker 4: was waitressing.

323
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 1: And.

324
00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:07,520
Speaker 4: I think like twenty eight twenty nine. My uncle, my

325
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 4: great uncle, my uncle Papa, he passed. He passed right

326
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 4: after college. So I was like, I don't know, like

327
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two, twenty one or something like that. But

328
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 4: I got my job as a as a waitress or whatever,

329
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:20,920
Speaker 4: and I was making a lot of money, and me

330
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 4: and my mom had like had a big falling out

331
00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 4: because I didn't finish college. So I go to his

332
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 4: funeral and my mother is trying to embarrass me at

333
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 4: his funeral, and I owed her like eight hundred dollars

334
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 4: because of a singular remember singular.

335
00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,640
Speaker 1: Young, what's the difference.

336
00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 4: No, she had me when she was like in her thirties,

337
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,240
Speaker 4: like thirty. Yeah, but she was trying to embarrass me

338
00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:45,960
Speaker 4: at the funeral, and so I pulled out eight hundred

339
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 4: dollars like I made it rain at the funeral, and

340
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 4: I was like, here's your money, and honestly, it was

341
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,520
Speaker 4: highlight of my life. But then we almost fought at

342
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 4: hometown buffet, so yeah, it was. It was very detroit

343
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 4: of us. Your mom's intents, well, she's also in a

344
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:06,400
Speaker 4: better place now.

345
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,280
Speaker 1: But oh my god, I'm it's striking out. I'm sorry.

346
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 4: No, it's okay. I'm a morbid person. So this is

347
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 4: another This is no, no, no, this is good. I love it.

348
00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 4: The kid asked me about another problem. All my exes did. Yeah,

349
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,040
Speaker 4: but yeah, we didn't have like birthday parties or whatever.

350
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,240
Speaker 4: So like now, growing up, it's a bigger thing to

351
00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 4: like celebrate a birthday because we can. I think they

352
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 4: also didn't. They couldn't spend too much money on birthdays,

353
00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 4: so it wasn't a big deal for them. But now

354
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:41,440
Speaker 4: it's like as an adult, it's like, yeah, let's get

355
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:43,199
Speaker 4: the cake. That's like two hundred dollars, let's go.

356
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,480
Speaker 1: Did you think you're ever gonna settle down and have

357
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 1: kids and stuff?

358
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,360
Speaker 4: Not having kids? I don't do it.

359
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: You don't want to do it.

360
00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 4: No, I think and correct me if I'm wrong. Too

361
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 4: many fucked up people are having kids that.

362
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:58,280
Speaker 1: Is correct, but I don't think.

363
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:01,400
Speaker 4: I think you're not a fucked up person genetically.

364
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,520
Speaker 5: You don't want to pass it down. I think about that.

365
00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:07,920
Speaker 5: I don't want to give this to anything.

366
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I don't care. And a lot of people

367
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 4: be like, I want to say, I want to make

368
00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,320
Speaker 4: a little me, because yeah, you might look the part,

369
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 4: but inside you are absolute staten island garbage. You should

370
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:25,439

Speaker 5: Hey, before you go, I want to let you know

553
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,479
Speaker 5: I got a new book out that I wrote with

554
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 5: my friend Dan Curry. It is called Dumb Ideas Behind

555
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,159
Speaker 5: the Scenes Expose I'm making pranks and other stupid creative

556
00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 5: endeavors and how.

557
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,160
Speaker 1: You can also too.

558
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 5: It's out now and you can get it anywhere you

559
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 5: buy books or audio books. Now, here's a special clip

560
00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 5: from the audio book, just for you. Years ago and

561
00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,480
Speaker 5: Eric andre Fan came up to me on a Brooklyn street.

562
00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:29,919
Speaker 5: I was getting ready to film a prank at an

563
00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:32,880
Speaker 5: auto repair place. For this specific bit, I was dressed normcore,

564
00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,560
Speaker 5: just a T shirt and jeans versus being a giant

565
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 5: human potato. For example, Hitting camera filmmaking means you have

566
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,159
Speaker 5: a hitting crew. So when I'm about to go in

567
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 5: the kill zone and perform a prank, my crew is

568
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,960
Speaker 5: completely invisible, So to this fan, I just looked like

569
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 5: I was lurking by my car on a beautiful Tuesday afternoon.

570
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:50,679
Speaker 5: Little did he know, I was waiting for my cameras

571
00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:52,760
Speaker 5: to get set and for my first ad to secretly

572
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,359
Speaker 5: and covertly cue my entrance. My first AD walked up

573
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:58,520
Speaker 5: with a secret nod. I said bye to the fan,

574
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 5: hopped in my shitty car, rolled up to the mechanics,

575
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 5: started chatting him up, then started bashing the shit out

576
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:06,679
Speaker 5: of my car with a hammer, all while asking how

577
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 5: much is it to fix this boom? How much is

578
00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:14,359
Speaker 5: it to fix this smash? What about this bang? The

579
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 5: marks were shocked at what I was doing to my

580
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 5: mediocre automobile mid prank. On my third hammer swing, I

581
00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,679
Speaker 5: accidentally thrust in my hand through the car window and

582
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,920
Speaker 5: sliced it to shreds. I was bleeding everywhere. I knew

583
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 5: I needed stitches, but the adrenaline kept me going the

584
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 5: whole time this prank was going down. The fan was

585
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:34,040
Speaker 5: in the deep background, jaw dropped shitting bricks to him.

586
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 5: It just looked like I was doing this crazy, anarctic

587
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,920
Speaker 5: violence in my private life, talking to him like a

588
00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 5: mild man or civilian one second, then going into a

589
00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 5: psychotic rage at an auto repair shop a minute later.

590
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 5: This guy got to live the show in real time.

591
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 5: To him, I was really that loco year round, Like

592
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 5: I fucking lived it man, I walked the walk. Little

593
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 5: does he know that I am a total suburban pussy.

594
00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,520
Speaker 5: I meditate journal, drink cammeal Ta and go to bed

595
00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:04,840
Speaker 5: at nine thirty pm. I'm definitely let down when fans

596
00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:06,680
Speaker 5: made me. I remember living in Toronto for a few

597
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 5: months filming Man Seeking Woman. I was getting lunch waiting online,

598
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 5: about to order a bond Me sandwich. This kid behind

599
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:16,120
Speaker 5: me recognized me, Holy shit, your airic andre ten decimals

600
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,120
Speaker 5: too loud and it was eleven thirty am. So I

601
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 5: was like waw, not fully with it yet craving delicious

602
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 5: Vietnamese meats. The fan couldn't process while I was so

603
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 5: boring and doing such a mundane pedestrian task like buying

604
00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 5: a sandwich on my Tuesday lunch break. He looked at me, confused, perplexed,

605
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,480
Speaker 5: nonplus a furral brow splashed across his forehead. Then he

606
00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 5: just started hitting me like his TV broke bat bat

607
00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 5: bat hit me in the arm and the back, ah,

608
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,400
Speaker 5: I fucking hurt. Then he screamed wow wow, an attempt

609
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,680
Speaker 5: to get me to warm up. His real life Eric

610
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:51,880
Speaker 5: Andrey Dahl was running out of batteries and needed to

611
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 5: start breaking something in this restaurant quick. I stood there

612
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 5: nervously giggling. The confused Vietnamese women behind the counter were

613
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 5: just like, please pay his twelve bucks. Then my fan

614
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,360
Speaker 5: walked away with a frown. As I was writing this

615
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,480
Speaker 5: very book you're reading, I just left a coffee shop

616
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 5: in Manhattan as a fan walked by and started hovering

617
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 5: near me, trying to get my attention. As soon as

618
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 5: I looked up, he forced himself to vomit all near

619
00:30:12,880 --> 00:30:15,880
Speaker 5: my new blue shoes. I closed my laptop and ran

620
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 5: into an uber. He continued vomiting and said, Eric, I

621
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,080
Speaker 5: love you, barf. I've created quite a nice little version

622
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 5: of hell for myself. Back to the Brooklyn guy, he

623
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,400
