About I could have had an 333 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 1: organization called save a Queen dot com you know what 334 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:02,439 Speaker 1: I mean, Beautiful Beautiful women dot com, or it wouldn't 335 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 1: have been as engaging as bitch. This is the is 336 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 1: the is the clickbait. Then get you to call in 337 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: and did you see what I was trying to do? 338 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: And it makes sense? At least I thought it makes sense, 339 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 1: But the company's now defunk and then no longer exist? 340 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 1: Know what does what does?

She was like, just 342 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,560 Speaker 1: reinvent the word to put a different definition. I put 343 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: the word delf. You know what delf is, right, Delf 344 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: is what I'm going through my life. Daddy dad, I 345 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 1: like the you know, milf, but basically saying the older 346 00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 1: guy in staid the same moms. I like the if 347 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: my mom, I like the yeah, daddy's dude. But I 348 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 1: switched to the acronyms. I said, deaf dad, uh devoted involved, 349 00:18:55,800 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: loving father. That's how I switched the delf. And I'm 350 00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 1: pushing up. I'm looking involved loving father, trying to switch 351 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:13,920 Speaker 1: it up. Because we get the rap, we get a 352 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 1: bad rap. Black men especially get the bad rap when 353 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 1: it comes to fatherhood for everything, but the one thing 354 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: that they want to promote is like dad because this 355 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 1: is my fucking ship. But I realized, I'm like, I'm 356 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: saying myself, like what type of people you're around? Because 357 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: everybody that I'm that's that's close to me, they dope 358 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,160 Speaker 1: as fathers. I'm like, where are y'all find Where y'all 359 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 1: find it? Y'all put the energy, that's just a life period. 360 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 1: We always put more energy on a negative than positive. 361 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: They get the most attention when it comes to cancel culture. 362 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: I give an example. I know we will probably get 363 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,119 Speaker 1: to a ser later, but I'll say, like, even though 364 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 1: man Dave with the last special, you're the closer. Right 365 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: if you take a hundred people and you say, what 366 00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 1: do you think about that special? Probably of it if 367 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: five percent would say get it out of here? And 368 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: how does the five percent rule? They get the most attention, 369 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 1: They get the most attention, They scream, the louders they get, 370 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,160 Speaker 1: they get the most attention up And I even said 371 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: it on my podcast the other day. I said, you know, 372 00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: I said, I'm not going to focus on those five 373 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:26,840 Speaker 1: I want to focus on the people that want to 374 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: see me want to funk with me, you know. But 375 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 1: it's it takes people like Dave Chappelle, you know that 376 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:35,880 Speaker 1: could come up and say, you know what, I'm taking 377 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: control of my career. I'm empowering myself. How whether y'all 378 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: like it or not, this is my voice. This is 379 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: the art that I do, and I can't let you 380 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: water it down and let you control what I say. 381 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: Stand up comedy is about finding somebody's personality that you like. 382 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,959 Speaker 1: You engage with them, and you want to hear they 383 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: take on the world. You know what I'm saying and 384 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: the way they want to do that. You can't say this, 385 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna say that. So they want every comic to 386 00:20:57,600 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: sound the same. And that's when the content of comedy 387 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: is going to be dead exactly. Man, tell tell us 388 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,440 Speaker 1: about that a festival that you're doing at the Improv 389 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: in Hollywood. Well, Netflix, Netflix is the first time. Netflix 390 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: is a joke. Years ago, Netflix a comedy festival. Netflix 391 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 1: is a joke. Yeah, I mean Netflix is talking about 392 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:24,320 Speaker 1: talking about talking about killers. It's everybody run down. What 393 00:21:24,440 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: it is is like comedy festivals really became popular, Like 394 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: five years ago you had the Edinburgh Comedy festival, which 395 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 1: which huge. It was a platform that you could break talent. 396 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: And the one that was really popular in the United 397 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: States was uh Montreal County Festival. That's where Dave Chappelle 398 00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 1: got his big break. So Netflix, no, and it makes sense, 399 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 1: they're the hugest platforms when it comes to stand up 400 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: comedy right now. So they said, why don't we just, 401 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, instead of just we give these guys money 402 00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: for their special why don't we like extend our brand 403 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 1: get out to more people. Let's do a festival. I 404 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 1: think the festivals over like six or seven days. It's 405 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,159 Speaker 1: different levels of performances. Like anytime you go to big festivals, 406 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,639 Speaker 1: you get like a grand stage. You've got like some 407 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 1: arena shows like Gabriel Iglasis he's doing Dodger Stadium. Then 408 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,200 Speaker 1: somebody's doing Stable but then he got two smaller venues 409 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: like the comedy clubs, the theaters. But it's just a 410 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: whole week of a stand up comedy where you get 411 00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: to see some of the biggest names in Yeah, it's like, yeah, 412 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: we um, I'm doing a show. Dave was at the 413 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 1: Hollywood Bowl probably the most two shows I'm doing to 414 00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,720 Speaker 1: show the improv and then Um, I think last year 415 00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:39,360 Speaker 1: we were supposed to do the Mark Lawrence Tour as 416 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: a live Netflix recorded I don't know if you're gonna 417 00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:44,119 Speaker 1: do that, but if that happens, and I'll be a 418 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,040 Speaker 1: part of that too. But it's a good, good place 419 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 1: for people to see you. And I've talked to some 420 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 1: comments like, well the money isn't right or whatever, and 421 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: I'm like, I've always been like this. I want to 422 00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: perform where the baddest people perform. If I got to 423 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,119 Speaker 1: take a hit on money sometimes just so I can 424 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 1: say I'm playing in this league to let y'all know, 425 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 1: you know, paying for pan, I'm on a nice to dude. 426 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 1: I take advantage of a lot of people.

No, 495 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 1: you know what, it didn't go to my head because, um, 496 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,439 Speaker 1: I've I've worked with some big names now and that happens, right, 497 00:26:48,760 --> 00:26:50,720 Speaker 1: It didn't go to my head because what people don't 498 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: understand how comedy works, Like people got different styles, you 499 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like my style is high energy. 500 00:26:56,440 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna be in your face when you 501 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: say you got somebody that went on for like an hour, right, 502 00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 1: and you ain't gotta say you doing it before. You 503 00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:09,959 Speaker 1: ain't gotta do with fifteen minutes. You ain't gotta captivate 504 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 1: the audience as long as they do that quick hit. 505 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 1: That's the easiest spot that guests spot. You go up 506 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,479 Speaker 1: in there like for seven or ten minutes. People, Oh 507 00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,040 Speaker 1: he was so But all I had to do was 508 00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 1: ten minutes. This person had to do an hour. Then 509 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: he had to transfer the energy from the committee went 510 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:30,159 Speaker 1: on before after, So I never get caught up in that. 511 00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:33,280 Speaker 1: And it's like I think comedies like like they say football, 512 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: any given Sunday, you know what I mean, Any given Sunday, 513 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: you could be the man. But one night you just 514 00:27:37,920 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 1: take an L and somebody shine that night. You know, 515 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 1: you call it an L like like and hip hop. 516 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: If we bomb on this show, he'd be like, damn, 517 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,720 Speaker 1: I don't even like that word, the word ball. I 518 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: remember when I first started, I was saying this check 519 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: and I mean, I said, this isn't gonna last because 520 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 1: I went she went to one of my shows, and 521 00:27:57,800 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 1: she didn't know that comedians are allergic to the word bomb. 522 00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 1: We don't. I don't use that. I might say, Yo, 523 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: it wasn't as successful as the last show, you know, 524 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,479 Speaker 1: but I had a bad set and she's looked at 525 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: my face. She said, you bombed. I was like, what, 526 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: I don't bomb. I don't know what it was. I 527 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: did that show. She said, you bombed. I did that show, 528 00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: went to the Peppermin Lounge and took another hit. She said, 529 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:26,720 Speaker 1: you bombed again? Cut too, that was bitch you. I 530 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: was like, no, we aren't doing that. Who created the character? 531 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: There was a combination, Like on the paper it read that, um, 532 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 1: it was a guy in boxers. The only thing I 533 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:40,360 Speaker 1: knew about him he was in boxing and he had 534 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,040 Speaker 1: dress shoes. But when I was on it, when I 535 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,120 Speaker 1: was on the show, if you really look at, if 536 00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: you had an editor tech, how much time I actually 537 00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 1: talked on that show, it would probably be on the time, 538 00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: it'd probably like four minutes of dialogue. Because but in, 539 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: which made me realize that every time you see me, 540 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: I gotta kill it on site. You know what I'm saying, Like, 541 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: I didn't wait for you to recognize me what I said. 542 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,720 Speaker 1: I want you to recognize me by the characteristics and 543 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 1: things I added to the character. So this dude was 544 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: in boxers and I said, um, I want to be ashy, right, 545 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 1: and it reminds me it was like our imitate life. 546 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: Because I was young, I used to shoot dice and 547 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: my mother was like, you've been out to shoot Dice. 548 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: I was like, no, why you say that? She said, 549 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 1: look at your knees. Your knees all scratched up, and 550 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 1: she right, because you know you're in the concrete trying 551 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: to get it right. So I was like, I want 552 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,640 Speaker 1: to be ashy. I said, I want to be so ashy. 553 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: I could write how much money people over the side 554 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 1: of my leg. I want to wake tacto. I'm like, 555 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: look at the look at my thigh. I keep it 556 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: a record right here. And I was like, just I 557 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: wanted to do something extreme, and I went to the 558 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: hair and makeup and I didn't share this with Dave 559 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: O'Neil brennan, but I asked him for some baby powder. 560 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: Right started putting the baby prowder on. I'm back here. 561 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 1: I didn't let nobody seem I gotta roll, but I 562 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:55,840 Speaker 1: was like when I come out him and come out, 563 00:29:57,160 --> 00:29:58,920 Speaker 1: I told him, I said, give me some baby power 564 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: rights a baby They don't.

When we did 570 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: that sketch, that was the first time we had someone 571 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 1: outside of our our main crew Charlie me, Bill Burr, 572 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:29,440 Speaker 1: RFP Right.

And that sketch wasn't designed for 575 00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: me to shine. If you look at you really, if 576 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: you look a dialogue was Eddie Greets and yeah, if 577 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:49,960 Speaker 1: you look at the dialogue, right, if you look at 578 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: the dialogue, they had a lot of dialogue. It was 579 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: a conversation. I had just a quick hit, right, And 580 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: I always tell myself, I know what you'll what's supposed 581 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,960 Speaker 1: to happen the sketch. I'm going all out every sketch. 582 00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: I treated like I was never gonna be on the show. 583 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 1: That was the first time you came out with the 584 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: baby pine that it was that on that sketch and 585 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: the thing the body was it was for Eddie.

The reason why that 594 00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,240 Speaker 1: sketch worked for you, he said, because you're not afraid 595 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 1: to get ugly. You know what I'm saying, Like some 596 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: people like, oh, I can't do this and anything. And 597 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: I just went all out and it became one of 598 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: the most memorable characters throughout the two and a half years. 599 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: And this is the show.

I have us Diva, Yes, I do diva motherfucker. 602 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:12,160 Speaker 1: And that's why I hey when you um when when 603 00:32:12,240 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: on the third season of The Chappelle Show, it was 604 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,240 Speaker 1: you and Charlie Murphy that came out on the stage 605 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: and you shot a lot of that stuff with or 606 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,959 Speaker 1: without Dave. Everything that the thing about it was very 607 00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 1: question People asked like, oh, how could you do it? 608 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: Everything that that show was about was already in the camp. 609 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: You're looking at the company like legal under the company 610 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: like this all right, we don't know what the deal is. 611 00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 1: It was no communication with Dave or anything. What do 612 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 1: we do with this? This still our intellectual property? You 613 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,880 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. In any business like this, how 614 00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: how can we put this out? It was a tough 615 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 1: decision on Miss Charlie's part because we wasn't trying to 616 00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: give the impression that we was the next Chappelle Show. 617 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 1: We weren't trying like, oh, we could take over, you know, 618 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: We're just like how do we present this? And that's 619 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 1: why I was important the beginning when Charlie was like, yo, 620 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 1: it was so funny, though, I was like, you know what, man, 621 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 1: I don't really want to be here, right And I 622 00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: was like, speak for yourself that I need all the 623 00:33:08,560 --> 00:33:12,680 Speaker 1: airtime I can get Like it was a funny way. 624 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: And then at the time Dave wasn't communicating with anybody. Heyeh, 625 00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: he had picked up the phone and said, you know what, 626 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: I don't want you to do it. Wouldn't wouldn't have 627 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,720 Speaker 1: done it. But at the same time it was a 628 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 1: great platform for us. So it was Dave indifferent. I've 629 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: heard him make jokes about it on stage, you know, like, um, yeah, 630 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle not doing the ship hell show. It is 631 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 1: like he referenced. I think it was a key and 632 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: Pale reference. It was like, oh, you mean the show 633 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 1: without that? He was you could tell he was troubled 634 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 1: by it. But at the same time, um, he had 635 00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,360 Speaker 1: a respect for what me and Charlie did as far 636 00:33:50,440 --> 00:33:52,760 Speaker 1: as what we could do to further our career and 637 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:54,920 Speaker 1: and and get people still check for us. It was 638 00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:56,560 Speaker 1: a dope platform. How do you not do it? How 639 00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:58,800 Speaker 1: long did they go after it was we knew it 640 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: like then we show it was a half of season 641 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 1: and the only reason like if it was a situation, Okay, 642 00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 1: now we're creating this show with these new skits and stuff. 643 00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 1: We would have never done it, but the fact that 644 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,960 Speaker 1: this was stuff that was supposed to come out anyway, 645 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: it was already in the Cantos copportunity for us to 646 00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: continue to do the show. Pay homage to this show. 647 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 1: I think we did it in the most respectful classes 648 00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,279 Speaker 1: where you can do it and we keep it moving. 649 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: But the funny thing about that, a lot of people 650 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 1: know me and Charlie was doing it.

You could 821 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 1: tell he was a little nervous, but he still did 822 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:41,759 Speaker 1: it right. And I said, all I need is ten 823 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: minutes out of him. Ten minutes. They Charlie married Jolie 824 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: Berthy is rich bitche tour ten minutes and didn't get 825 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:50,760 Speaker 1: to me. Then at the time, Bill Burt, Bill Burr's 826 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,279 Speaker 1: a huge name in Connie right now, Bill Burt was 827 00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 1: about the bus, right, he was about the bubble, but 828 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 1: he still wasn't he was still working b rooms, you know. 829 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 1: And I said, let me I want I don't want 830 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,360 Speaker 1: this show. I wanted to be a quality show. I 831 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 1: don't want just to be like a fluffer or something 832 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 1: in the middle. I was like, why not have Bill 833 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 1: Burrow on the show? Because Bill Burr was an animal 834 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 1: and by the way, he killed that commentator role on 835 00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 1: the on the world. It was like it was like 836 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:18,439 Speaker 1: everybody at that time was like bubbling, right, And I said, 837 00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 1: we're gonna do this tour. I was like, Charlie u 838 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: mc um, Bill Bird, no disrespect to you being the headliner, 839 00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,959 Speaker 1: but I'm a bigger draw of the show than Bill Bird. 840 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:31,320 Speaker 1: So it's Charlie Bill Bird and then our headline. And 841 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,960 Speaker 1: going back to we're talking about following somebody. When I 842 00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:37,719 Speaker 1: saw my final Piole day, try coming behind Bill Burt 843 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: for motherfucking forty five weekends out of a year, you 844 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:47,000 Speaker 1: have no time off. There's not one day you can slip. 845 00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:49,759 Speaker 1: And there's a couple of times I didn't have a 846 00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: great show, and I noticed because I'm calming cards to 847 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:55,520 Speaker 1: come back. They're like, yeah, just like you said, they said, yeah, 848 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,320 Speaker 1: they should have had the white boy headline. Right. I 849 00:44:57,480 --> 00:44:59,719 Speaker 1: was like, we're not gonna do that again. But in 850 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 1: that's how we had to make an adjustment and and 851 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:05,400 Speaker 1: Charlie was off to the races after that. He was 852 00:45:06,120 --> 00:45:11,160 Speaker 1: can you imagine selling out across the country as an 853 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: open mic and learning the craft as you're selling out? 854 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 1: And people were super critical to him, like it was 855 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 1: you can hear some roughly. He and his brother he 856 00:45:20,840 --> 00:45:22,920 Speaker 1: you know Eddie Murphy, but he wasn't trying to be 857 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:25,239 Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy. Who was trying to be him and he 858 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:29,600 Speaker 1: and he became what he is one of the dopest storytellers. 859 00:45:29,800 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: Can captivate the audiers. Don't gotta jump up and gotta 860 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 1: yell at then just sit there and talk. What's the 861 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 1: comedy card?

It was all by accident. Like you gotta 880 00:46:35,400 --> 00:46:37,719 Speaker 1: realized when we went to go to work, I never 881 00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:39,839 Speaker 1: feel like we were work when we went through set. 882 00:46:39,880 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: I never feel like it was working. I was like, 883 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: we just had a good time. And Charlie has a 884 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 1: million stories and we've just been in lunch, having lunch 885 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,440 Speaker 1: talking and you would hear these stories of David's like like, 886 00:46:53,160 --> 00:46:55,720 Speaker 1: are you serious? And how do you remember that stuff 887 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: Man got. He's really detailed. He's just I don't know 888 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:04,000 Speaker 1: what process was whatever. He's a born ship talker, you know, 889 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 1: he was a born ship talking but he would tell 890 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 1: the stories. And I remember Man that we got them 891 00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 1: Rick James story. They was like, it was just like 892 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 1: you just Charlie would just talk. Charlie would talk and 893 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: the script me like just and it's just doing it 894 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: just there was. It's a crazy thing about that sketch. 895 00:47:24,120 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: This is how companies use sometimes they don't know what 896 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,240 Speaker 1: the a you're talking about. At the time. Communiy Center 897 00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: that sketch, that episode, they hated it. This is what 898 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 1: they said. They said, it's too long. Nobody had ever 899 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: did a sketch like the entire show. It was like, 900 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 1: it's too long, and Charlie Murphy's not funny. Now we 901 00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:50,600 Speaker 1: see how wrong they worry about that, and we stuck 902 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:52,840 Speaker 1: to our guns. They pushed forward and what we call 903 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 1: it the wrap arounds. The wrap arounds is when you 904 00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:58,040 Speaker 1: already had the stuff you recorded right, and then you 905 00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 1: played for everybody to see in front of a last audience. 906 00:48:01,360 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 1: And I've seen that room erupt but I've never seen 907 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:09,799 Speaker 1: anything um erupt, like when when the first time Dave said, 908 00:48:10,239 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 1: I'm Rick James, bitch, one of the baddest motherfucker's ever. 909 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:20,239 Speaker 1: Another thing, this is when you know you're incredible, uh 910 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,400 Speaker 1: communic actor when you could be a motherfucker that you 911 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 1: don't look nothing like you, that don't look nothing like him, 912 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:33,520 Speaker 1: but you feel that was Rick James. Yeah, that's fucking 913 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:35,160 Speaker 1: acting when you can take it away from you know, 914 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,080 Speaker 1: some people like this, we gotta get this guy to 915 00:48:37,080 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 1: play this role because he looks like him. I didn't 916 00:48:38,840 --> 00:48:41,279 Speaker 1: even do that and smoked that ship man. I can 917 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 1: see why Joe Rogan has invited you back on his 918 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:48,959 Speaker 1: show multiple times, because you know, Joe talks to really 919 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:51,800 Speaker 1: brilliant people. It's a lot of people that come on 920 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: his show were very very brilliant and fascinating. You know, 921 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: you got that ship man, and it's that information that 922 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:02,080 Speaker 1: you got. Where did that come from? Life experiences? Fucking 923 00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 1: getting burnt, you know what I'm saying, getting rejected, you know, 924 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:09,120 Speaker 1: but it had to be also like on your behalf 925 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 1: a wheel to want to be better and want to 926 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,879 Speaker 1: learn always always. I've been doing it for twenty years, 927 00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 1: right and I've right out the gate, I was funny 928 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 1: at the twenty year career. Really, I still feel like 929 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:24,719 Speaker 1: every year I get better and that's coming from having 930 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:28,359 Speaker 1: some bomb's years like being on Fire two years ago, 931 00:49:28,760 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: and continue because I always can find something new. I 932 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:36,239 Speaker 1: always could figure out another way to present a joke, attitude, 933 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,120 Speaker 1: just positive and stavid. I'm always practiced on how I 934 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,160 Speaker 1: can get better. But going back on the on the 935 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,200 Speaker 1: on the Joe Rogan one, I'll tell you one thing. 936 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:46,920 Speaker 1: The person people that Joe Rogan always has when the 937 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:50,279 Speaker 1: people on this show, it's people he respect. You know 938 00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:52,600 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. He's never gonna have nobody on this 939 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,640 Speaker 1: show just because like, oh this will be interesting. It's 940 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:58,399 Speaker 1: something that he connects with somebody hot just because they're hot. 941 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 1: That's not what he He's a true motherfucker. And I 942 00:50:02,040 --> 00:50:03,800 Speaker 1: used to and I knew how powerful Joe Rogan was 943 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,080 Speaker 1: with his podcast, and I was like, I'm gonna get 944 00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 1: on this podcast. But they ain't gonna be from like, hey, 945 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:11,839 Speaker 1: can it be your podcast.

And I was like, 952 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:32,400 Speaker 1: eventually I would get the call or the or the 953 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:36,160 Speaker 1: invite just off of that. In my relationship in comedy period, 954 00:50:36,160 --> 00:50:38,520 Speaker 1: I never wanted to be close to a comedian.

And when he started, like when 963 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,880 Speaker 1: I started comedy in d C, David already moved to 964 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,080 Speaker 1: New York. And like for anybody from like a small 965 00:51:06,200 --> 00:51:08,759 Speaker 1: town or whatever, your best sign of you trying to 966 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,279 Speaker 1: do something is when you leave home.

This 1170 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:13,720 Speaker 1: is another thing to think about. It's all like relevant 1171 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:15,640 Speaker 1: to where you were in your life. And I always 1172 01:02:15,680 --> 01:02:17,680 Speaker 1: say that all my friends kids are so much older 1173 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 1: than my son. But I just said, I said, what, 1174 01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:23,720 Speaker 1: what what would happen done there? What type of person 1175 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:25,760 Speaker 1: do you think you would have been our dad if 1176 01:02:25,840 --> 01:02:27,400 Speaker 1: you was like right at the beginning of your career? 1177 01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:30,280 Speaker 1: Old you know what I'm saying you and you're still 1178 01:02:30,320 --> 01:02:32,600 Speaker 1: trying to get the best pussy out there? What old 1179 01:02:32,720 --> 01:02:35,280 Speaker 1: mentor of mind told me? What Andy has? He said? 1180 01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:37,520 Speaker 1: Down Hill? This is when your career blows up, when 1181 01:02:37,560 --> 01:02:40,080 Speaker 1: you everything you want to fuck right you got that 1182 01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:45,840 Speaker 1: out your system. And he said, um, you gotta remember uh, 1183 01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:54,720 Speaker 1: no pussy, it's gonna be better than new pussy. M hm. 1184 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 1: And I think you said you you referenced something close 1185 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:00,360 Speaker 1: to that when when I was listen into on the 1186 01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:03,320 Speaker 1: podcast and you just talk about when you can control, 1187 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:07,800 Speaker 1: you said, we can control your penis. Yeah, the two 1188 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,720 Speaker 1: things and that a man must learn to control, and 1189 01:03:10,840 --> 01:03:15,760 Speaker 1: that is his emotions and his penis. That's if you 1190 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: can do that, you know, you can really maximize, you know, 1191 01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:32,480 Speaker 1: your potential. You know what. Let's go back to uh, 1192 01:03:33,240 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 1: to the um the miscarriage. When your girl had that miscarriage. 1193 01:03:39,800 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 1: I know you said you were angry with God, but 1194 01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:46,040 Speaker 1: were you also angry with her? And the reason why, 1195 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:51,440 Speaker 1: the reason why I never like we don't exist in 1196 01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,360 Speaker 1: the same mental space anymore. The reason I wasn't upset 1197 01:03:54,440 --> 01:04:00,040 Speaker 1: with her because, uh, she gave me her body. What 1198 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:03,680 Speaker 1: I'm saying, she gave me her body. She sacrificed, sacrifice. 1199 01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:05,280 Speaker 1: And this is what you gotta respect about the matter 1200 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 1: how relationship go. She get my body and she said, 1201 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 1: this is what I want to do. And I know 1202 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:11,960 Speaker 1: it was she super excited about having a kid. I 1203 01:04:12,000 --> 01:04:14,360 Speaker 1: don't think so. But we were in love at the 1204 01:04:14,480 --> 01:04:17,520 Speaker 1: time and she felt like this was something and I 1205 01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 1: talked about it like whatever. She thought that this was 1206 01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 1: something that would can complete my journey. So, um no, 1207 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:26,520 Speaker 1: I never was mad at So she had the baby 1208 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:30,640 Speaker 1: as a gift to you, so to speak. That's that's 1209 01:04:30,680 --> 01:04:33,160 Speaker 1: probably a combination. But it's a tough question. You know. 1210 01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:36,240 Speaker 1: I think she probably was curious about mom lifestyle, but 1211 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,200 Speaker 1: I think it was more. I really do believe that 1212 01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:42,680 Speaker 1: she really felt like how happy it would make me. 1213 01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 1: And then we was new relationship. You know, at the beginning, 1214 01:04:47,040 --> 01:04:50,400 Speaker 1: the muther do anything, but yeah, I can go for that. 1215 01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:52,760 Speaker 1: And the beginning everything to make you ever did like, 1216 01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:56,520 Speaker 1: oh you start getting older and ship old ass motherfucker. 1217 01:04:56,680 --> 01:05:01,440 Speaker 1: But you know, Grayer, the ain't talking about go take 1218 01:05:01,480 --> 01:05:04,200 Speaker 1: your medicine, take your pills, sit your old ass where 1219 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:06,400 Speaker 1: you better put that basketball dad before you pop something. 1220 01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,320 Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure it wasn't. It was It was 1221 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:11,760 Speaker 1: her like wanting me to be happy with that part 1222 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:16,000 Speaker 1: of my life. Man, talk about how it is when 1223 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:22,000 Speaker 1: you're this guy who is a comedian and people expect 1224 01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 1: you to always be funny and to be that guy 1225 01:05:28,600 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 1: who is the jokester, right when you're not always that guy? 1226 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,760 Speaker 1: You know, how how do how do you balance that? 1227 01:05:38,640 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm usually, for the most part, always the funniest person 1228 01:05:40,760 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 1: in the room. But you know, I got limits to it. 1229 01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:48,120 Speaker 1: I'm not And it's not me trying to be like 1230 01:05:48,600 --> 01:05:51,720 Speaker 1: the funny guys, just my personality.

And I was like this, you know, he 1304 01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:48,560 Speaker 1: was a hard on white people. I was about to 1305 01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 1: defend white men. I was like, how dare you talk 1306 01:09:50,160 --> 01:09:53,240 Speaker 1: about I felt sell out Like, I was like, how 1307 01:09:53,320 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 1: did you can't talk to the white man like that? 1308 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:58,599 Speaker 1: And he had to leve the confidence he was goes. 1309 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:01,559 Speaker 1: He used to go on airlines on Broadway days. They 1310 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,679 Speaker 1: have a disclaimer at the beginning if you're easily offended, 1311 01:10:04,720 --> 01:10:09,080 Speaker 1: blah blah blah, blah blah. Just don't even because we're 1312 01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 1: gonna we're not giving Carolines where Caroline's on Broadway because 1313 01:10:13,280 --> 01:10:15,240 Speaker 1: I was I thought you said somewhere else, because I 1314 01:10:15,320 --> 01:10:17,920 Speaker 1: know obviously know the one in New York. But no, 1315 01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:20,000 Speaker 1: But he was and and and Paul Mooney was one 1316 01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:26,840 Speaker 1: of those guys that throughout the comedy uh, the comedy circuit, 1317 01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:29,880 Speaker 1: they had respect. They knew who he was and respected 1318 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 1: and know what he did as a writer for Richard 1319 01:10:32,680 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 1: and who he was. But like for the general public, 1320 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,800 Speaker 1: a lot of people didn't know what his contribution was 1321 01:10:38,520 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 1: to comedy and entertainment. In your in your opinion, who 1322 01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:47,559 Speaker 1: is today's Paul Mooney, I'd say it's it. Signs are different. 1323 01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:51,360 Speaker 1: Who gets there the closest, though, who's the closest I think, 1324 01:10:51,920 --> 01:10:55,560 Speaker 1: I think, um, Dave. But but but the thing is 1325 01:10:55,760 --> 01:11:00,880 Speaker 1: like one thing Dave don't like Paul Mooney comes off 1326 01:11:01,040 --> 01:11:04,240 Speaker 1: you would think like agitated or upset. You know what 1327 01:11:04,280 --> 01:11:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So that's why sometimes you don't people don't 1328 01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 1: give it a fair listen. But Dave's very approachable, David 1329 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:12,960 Speaker 1: is very likable, but he's saying exactly some of the 1330 01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:17,040 Speaker 1: same ships and moving almost similar to Paul Paul Mooney. 1331 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:19,439 Speaker 1: Paul Mooney would have never gave a funk about cancel 1332 01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:21,519 Speaker 1: culture the same way Dave don't never get fun about 1333 01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 1: cancel culture, the same way Bill Bird don't give you 1334 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:26,479 Speaker 1: got As much of people say comedy is getting sucked up, 1335 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,439 Speaker 1: you still have people that stand up on what it 1336 01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:31,800 Speaker 1: means to be a stand up and say fuck it. 1337 01:11:32,120 --> 01:11:35,479 Speaker 1: And those are the people that empower themselves. Those are 1338 01:11:35,520 --> 01:11:38,960 Speaker 1: people that say I'm doing this my way, I don't 1339 01:11:38,960 --> 01:11:41,920 Speaker 1: give a funk, and they put the power. One of 1340 01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:44,320 Speaker 1: the dopest things Dave people say, you always talk about 1341 01:11:44,360 --> 01:11:46,360 Speaker 1: Dave here one of my closest friends. He's one of 1342 01:11:46,439 --> 01:11:48,559 Speaker 1: my closest friends, and he happens to be the goat. 1343 01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:52,800 Speaker 1: That's it. Why why, why why are you talking about 1344 01:11:52,800 --> 01:11:55,200 Speaker 1: because that's my nigga. The way that he brought that 1345 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:59,439 Speaker 1: um closer around, like the way he made that food 1346 01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:04,040 Speaker 1: circle that but yeah, here's this one was frustrating to 1347 01:12:04,120 --> 01:12:06,720 Speaker 1: me about the whole thing is that, as a good 1348 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:10,840 Speaker 1: friend of mine lesbian married to another woman, I was 1349 01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:20,559 Speaker 1: performance said I thought that was no, it was where Yeah, 1350 01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:22,439 Speaker 1: but you used to be able to say that, no, 1351 01:12:22,600 --> 01:12:25,680 Speaker 1: big deal and say they come out like unless you 1352 01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 1: say something derogatory toward Jewish people, you know what I'm saying, Like, 1353 01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:34,240 Speaker 1: oh crazy. But when we were, um, we were showing 1354 01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:37,800 Speaker 1: awesome and when my friends heard her wife was there 1355 01:12:38,960 --> 01:12:40,720 Speaker 1: and at the end up, I said, um, how do 1356 01:12:40,720 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 1: you like the show? She was like, well, I I 1357 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:44,400 Speaker 1: liked it, but we left early.

And when she said that, I said to myself, 1360 01:12:51,280 --> 01:12:56,280 Speaker 1: I know exactly the moment she walked out. Yeah, it 1361 01:12:56,400 --> 01:12:58,560 Speaker 1: was a trigger Like you got people people just like 1362 01:12:58,640 --> 01:12:59,960 Speaker 1: most of the people to walk out over the show. 1363 01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:02,400 Speaker 1: They came to walk out. They're just waiting for the 1364 01:13:02,439 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 1: trigger word. And it was I know when she walked 1365 01:13:05,040 --> 01:13:07,960 Speaker 1: out was at the beginning of setting up the story 1366 01:13:08,080 --> 01:13:11,120 Speaker 1: about Day's transgender friend, right. I was like, that's something 1367 01:13:11,120 --> 01:13:12,519 Speaker 1: fair else I knew when she walked out and said, 1368 01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:14,519 Speaker 1: but she didn't even give the shot because, like you said, 1369 01:13:15,040 --> 01:13:17,080 Speaker 1: if you go three sixty on how it turned out 1370 01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:20,840 Speaker 1: in the explanation and like they're trying to drag Dave 1371 01:13:20,920 --> 01:13:23,800 Speaker 1: talking about oh he's transferred, just heard they heard the 1372 01:13:23,800 --> 01:13:26,479 Speaker 1: trigger word. And walked the stud I was like, if 1373 01:13:26,520 --> 01:13:30,920 Speaker 1: you realize what was important with his relationship with the 1374 01:13:31,000 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 1: transgender is not who the transgender identified as or anything. 1375 01:13:35,720 --> 01:13:37,960 Speaker 1: It was like, how we respect each other as a 1376 01:13:38,040 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 1: comic and a person. You know what I'm saying. When 1377 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:44,120 Speaker 1: the Daphne said, Dave's like, I'm trying to understand your dad, 1378 01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:45,639 Speaker 1: And then he said that was like this, I don't 1379 01:13:45,680 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 1: need you to understand me.

How do you call somebody transfer? But 1383 01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:08,360 Speaker 1: without bringing up that whole story when you're experiencing cognitive dissonance, 1384 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:11,840 Speaker 1: you know when when when you're that that person you 1385 01:14:11,960 --> 01:14:14,760 Speaker 1: know who, here's what you want to here, and once 1386 01:14:14,800 --> 01:14:17,120 Speaker 1: you hear what you want to hear the other stuff, 1387 01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:20,160 Speaker 1: don't the other thing.

They 1395 01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:40,840 Speaker 1: don't want you to say fact right. He says, politically 1396 01:14:40,920 --> 01:14:45,160 Speaker 1: and correct is social responsible. It's a disgusting work. And 1397 01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:47,240 Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think it is a disgusting work. 1398 01:14:47,680 --> 01:14:50,479 Speaker 1: But when you banned words, you can't just cut in 1399 01:14:50,640 --> 01:14:53,120 Speaker 1: line of all other words need to be banned first. 1400 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:55,880 Speaker 1: You can't just jump in front of nigger like that, right. 1401 01:14:57,439 --> 01:15:00,479 Speaker 1: You can't nigguse me chick, okay, nigger had all we're 1402 01:15:00,520 --> 01:15:02,800 Speaker 1: in the front, I said, if I was not a lie, 1403 01:15:02,960 --> 01:15:04,680 Speaker 1: but like your fat get behind these niggers.

But like I've seen his growth, and 1414 01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:48,240 Speaker 1: every time we do a special, it's deeper, it's a lesson, 1415 01:15:48,360 --> 01:15:51,400 Speaker 1: it's the time capsule. It's like when he's long gone, 1416 01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,880 Speaker 1: wait from here, you can you'll know exactly what was 1417 01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:55,880 Speaker 1: going in the world just by dropping one of them. 1418 01:15:56,160 --> 01:16:01,639 Speaker 1: I've never seen anybody that can create flip material as life, 1419 01:16:04,479 --> 01:16:06,320 Speaker 1: like when we're talking about with that stuff, that quick 1420 01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 1: man and that good you know, I think he did 1421 01:16:09,360 --> 01:16:12,160 Speaker 1: three specials in like one year or something. Man, that's 1422 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:14,360 Speaker 1: not heard. But when you have your voice, when you 1423 01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:16,000 Speaker 1: have your voice and you have your point of view, 1424 01:16:16,439 --> 01:16:18,000 Speaker 1: all you need the subject matter, all you need to 1425 01:16:18,040 --> 01:16:19,080 Speaker 1: be in a moment just to be able to talk 1426 01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:21,559 Speaker 1: about something. And that's what make it though. And people 1427 01:16:21,560 --> 01:16:24,000 Speaker 1: always I'll go, I think I'm a great comic. It's 1428 01:16:24,040 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 1: hard for us. I think it's hard for us to 1429 01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:28,680 Speaker 1: put out ego aside. If you when you you know, 1430 01:16:28,840 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 1: just petty motherfucker's when somebody says somebody's great, the like. 1431 01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:36,280 Speaker 1: But I questioned myself. I was like, I asked myself, 1432 01:16:37,160 --> 01:16:40,560 Speaker 1: what makes this mother great? Right? And I attribute to 1433 01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:44,120 Speaker 1: our call the Muhammad Ali moment. You got some people 1434 01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 1: that could probably get you the laugh harder than Dave whatever. 1435 01:16:47,320 --> 01:16:49,799 Speaker 1: But it's not too often that you have a Muhammed 1436 01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:53,840 Speaker 1: Ali moment where the decision you make it's going to 1437 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:58,920 Speaker 1: uh change your life, could change your life. Muhammad Ali like, 1438 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm not fighting, you know what I'm saying, And I 1439 01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:05,200 Speaker 1: was like, that's what separates and that's to me, what 1440 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:09,200 Speaker 1: makes a great person a great comment? What is your 1441 01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:13,840 Speaker 1: contribution to the world. What do you think about Cat 1442 01:17:14,000 --> 01:17:19,240 Speaker 1: Williams's statement saying that Eddie Murphy can't be your favorite 1443 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:23,639 Speaker 1: comedian because he hasn't put out any material over twenty years. 1444 01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:27,800 Speaker 1: He hasn't done sstand up. I mean, first off, it's 1445 01:17:27,840 --> 01:17:31,960 Speaker 1: a crazy statement to tell somebody who can't be your 1446 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 1: favorite comedian because it's all subjective. It's all subjective, and 1447 01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:38,160 Speaker 1: it's like, what you like, you know what I'm saying, 1448 01:17:39,120 --> 01:17:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't he what he what he was 1449 01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:44,479 Speaker 1: saying that he was going by catalog he's saying, you know, 1450 01:17:44,640 --> 01:17:46,800 Speaker 1: stand up wise, you know, stand up wise. You know 1451 01:17:47,200 --> 01:17:49,960 Speaker 1: Eddie was great in in in the in the eighties 1452 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:52,880 Speaker 1: or whatever, but you know, maybe early nineties or whatever. 1453 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 1: But he's saying stand up performance by stand up performance. 1454 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,040 Speaker 1: He don't even consider Eddie Murphy because he don't have 1455 01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:05,240 Speaker 1: the catalog. But I say to that personally, is that 1456 01:18:07,520 --> 01:18:10,320 Speaker 1: But if if you were to believe what Cat is saying, 1457 01:18:10,600 --> 01:18:13,439 Speaker 1: then you have to strike off Biggie Smalls off your 1458 01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:17,439 Speaker 1: favorite rapper list because he still because Biggie don't have 1459 01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:20,640 Speaker 1: the catalog at all, you don't even have remotely had 1460 01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:23,679 Speaker 1: to if you're going to buy a catalog, Biggie name 1461 01:18:23,760 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 1: will never be mentioned as somebody's favorite rap. I think 1462 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 1: in that case, he probably was speaking to his fans, 1463 01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:31,880 Speaker 1: you know, the people that ride with him. I think 1464 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:34,200 Speaker 1: that that's that's a And I got a lot of 1465 01:18:35,600 --> 01:18:38,280 Speaker 1: respect for Cat Williams. A lot of respect for Cat Williams. 1466 01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 1: I really respect the guys in this business that don't 1467 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:44,920 Speaker 1: have to be on TV every day, don't have to 1468 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:48,280 Speaker 1: be in everybody's movie, that created a fan base, a 1469 01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:51,479 Speaker 1: loyal people that will support them forever, like Cat Williams. 1470 01:18:51,760 --> 01:18:54,400 Speaker 1: And that's what stand on something and stand on something, 1471 01:18:54,760 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 1: and that's what he empowers himself. And he put it 1472 01:18:57,240 --> 01:19:00,240 Speaker 1: back to where the most important people and that's what 1473 01:19:00,320 --> 01:19:03,720 Speaker 1: people just buying the tickets, you know.
