Speaker 1: the scapegoating, and they ain't knowing we speak the truth,
Speaker 1: so they ain't quoted because we wrote it. The North
Speaker 1: South East coat is g b my for keeping your
Speaker 1: head bobbing. It ain't no stopping and wants to be
Speaker 1: try head by then the system is so corrupt they
Speaker 1: throw the rock out their heads and then blame it

Speaker 1: reloaded with another episode of information and instructions to help
Speaker 1: you navigate through this wild, crazy, beautiful world. In the studio,
Speaker 1: Dan there rolling, I just want to start by saying
Speaker 1: the level of disrespect in this room, the level can
Speaker 1: I can I let me I know I knew what's
Speaker 1: gonna happen, the level of disrespect in this room. It's unfair.
Speaker 1: First off, I was supposed to be doing this podcast
Speaker 1: on an earliest slot I got bumped. They said, we've
Speaker 1: taken them whenever we can take them. I come, I'm
Speaker 1: on time. You not even here. You show up an
Speaker 1: hour and a half late. Willie in the bathroom doing
Speaker 1: makeup or whatever. You're getting ready for a long time.
Speaker 1: At first I thought he was doing you know, But
Speaker 1: I was like, no, bathroom, still fresh here and they're
Speaker 1: fixing this column. And I realized that I got invited
Speaker 1: to a show filled with metro sexuals. I saw you
Speaker 1: make your transitions, say, it's a lot of things people
Speaker 1: don't know about you, right, right, and you would never
Speaker 1: share this, and I knew that it would be a
Speaker 1: platform whacker. People did not know that you regularly get
Speaker 1: manni's and petties regularly. That's a good thing, right, I
Speaker 1: don't know. The image that he gave me was like,
Speaker 1: the only time we do petticuts if our shoes are
Speaker 1: our feet exposed, just dragging your nails on the concrete.
Speaker 1: That's that's what I thought. Real man get pedicures. But
Speaker 1: he must be no here. No, he doesn't feel uncomfortable
Speaker 1: with the cotton balls in between his toes. It's a
Speaker 1: level of discomfort. He feels comfortable with the cotton balls.
Speaker 1: He could grades the cue combers ship all that type
Speaker 1: of stuff, and que combers on my ass. Come on, man,
Speaker 1: the time we were in Vegas, the combers that should
Speaker 1: have closed my throat up. You allergic to street ship too,
Speaker 1: So tell you this show in Vegas. I met this
Speaker 1: motherfucker right, and I'm telling all my friends, I'm like, nig,
Speaker 1: you don't even know what I'm about to hang out.
Speaker 1: We're about to do some ship. We're gonna knock a
Speaker 1: nig out with something. We're gonna do ghetto boys, right.
Speaker 1: I ain't got no gun, but I got a little
Speaker 1: ass like one of them, like Swiss army knives. Just
Speaker 1: case and go down right, and I'm like, we're gonna smoke,
Speaker 1: We're gonna drink. I get in the car. I like
Speaker 1: to joint. This mother almost jumped out to god the
Speaker 1: car the proflem and federal problemas know. But his look
Speaker 1: on his face is like the funk are you doing?
Speaker 1: He said, dropped him off? I dropped him off and
Speaker 1: getting petty in the manny and he'd been metro sexual,
Speaker 1: metro sexual every ever since then. Now do you get
Speaker 1: manny petties? Not not? I mean not not as often
Speaker 1: as he does. Like he got it's a rotation Monday, Monday, Wednesday. Say,
Speaker 1: my ship is when somebody say something. I know it's
Speaker 1: a proper to it's important to grouself. But he said
Speaker 1: somebody else. But I think man manicures. Menicures look good
Speaker 1: in everything and show there's pedicures. But pedicures and more
Speaker 1: necessary in my opinion, because you know you have you
Speaker 1: get lent and stuff like that, you know, trapped between
Speaker 1: your toes and all that kind of stuff. So well
Speaker 1: you and all that kind of you you you lotion
Speaker 1: your entire body. No, I don't know. I just take
Speaker 1: care of myself. I get that because I know that,
Speaker 1: you know, as as Larry, Larry is a good character.
Speaker 1: But in real life, women don't like ash Man. Women
Speaker 1: like women like something. Women like to feel a strong,
Speaker 1: you know, clean you know man. Also women like that.
Speaker 1: They liked that, But who they like, No, I don't
Speaker 1: think so. I think the one that just came old
Speaker 1: Tim nique as and Ship, I understand what you're saying.
Speaker 1: I think I think when women women women do women
Speaker 1: do like roughnecks. You know, I'm a roughneck myself. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, I know how to switch gears,
Speaker 1: but women also like a refined man. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. Women like men that can switch gears and
Speaker 1: be able to move in different rooms. I've seen his transition,
Speaker 1: even even his laugh change. Really you think it's you know,
Speaker 1: he used to laugh, you know how to think. He
Speaker 1: laughed and just point at you where he laughed. Stop
Speaker 1: stop stop. He took pictures and he ain't laughing with you. Yeah.
Speaker 1: And he when he when he took pictures down, he
Speaker 1: bent his leg. You know how you've been your leg
Speaker 1: on the wall, he'd been his leg. You have changed, man.
Speaker 1: But I think that's a good look. He crosses his leg. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he crossed his leg like this. I don't know what
Speaker 1: you can see it. He crossed his leg and then
Speaker 1: he made his toe twiddle. When you do your toll
Speaker 1: like that, that's the next let. I think he got
Speaker 1: that from the rock I see Barrocky doing that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's got from I love Barack Obama. I said, did
Speaker 1: you get that? That's my guy moving the food him.
Speaker 1: On the other hand, I got a chance to check
Speaker 1: out this show again last night, and I gotta say, man,
Speaker 1: he is probably the most funniest motherfucker off the reel,
Speaker 1: like spontaneously funny man. We had. Yeah, we agree, we
Speaker 1: had a roast off in the dressing room. No, we
Speaker 1: didn't have a roast off. You try to take advantage
Speaker 1: of me because everybody was excited to meet you, so
Speaker 1: you use that popularity and use your legend to go
Speaker 1: against me. And you had a small audience of four
Speaker 1: people in the green room and he was happy. And Ship,
Speaker 1: I heard you saying, I told you I could do that, Ship,
Speaker 1: but I ain't really on that lane right until I
Speaker 1: told you. I said, I'll let you have your audience
Speaker 1: in the green room. When I go on stage, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tell your ass out. That's what I said, to
Speaker 1: which you came back in the green room three minutes
Speaker 1: before I perform and say, you know, I didn't really
Speaker 1: mean nothing about it. You really no comedian. But I
Speaker 1: was like no, no, no, no, no, no, goddamn stage,
Speaker 1: and I had a ball. I had a ball. In fact,
Speaker 1: I don't know if you want to do this as
Speaker 1: a bonus. I had that set recorded and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell them to cut that piece out there, and I'm
Speaker 1: and I want you to have it. So you're telling
Speaker 1: you try to really make you got me that good?
Speaker 1: What I know I got you good because you was quiet.
Speaker 1: You wouldn't talk the same ship out there as you
Speaker 1: didn't agree though I was looking for you saying you
Speaker 1: ain't laugh all usow with some eyeballs in the in
Speaker 1: the background. And and then he was sitting back beside
Speaker 1: his son too, so that even gave me more pleasure.
Speaker 1: That was a good time. Man. Let's let's take it
Speaker 1: back to d C. Man. All started. You're born in
Speaker 1: d C. You grew up you were you born? I
Speaker 1: was born in d C. And you grew up in Virginia. Okay, right,

Speaker 1: But go ahead. Well, I was born d C. My
Speaker 1: father moved us from d C to Alexandria when I
Speaker 1: was twelve twel years old. And that was because he
Speaker 1: has so many baby mothers. He didn't want everybody in
Speaker 1: the same city. Right, we thought we was moving on up.
Speaker 1: He was like no, y'all can get the funk away
Speaker 1: from me with these other baby mothers. So mod alex
Speaker 1: Andrea then went to like great Elementary High School was
Speaker 1: in Alexandria. Then um, after Alexandria, I went to the
Speaker 1: Air Force. At the age of seventeen. Four years in
Speaker 1: the Air Force, I was a military police officer, which nobody, uh,
Speaker 1: I can understand that. And my father was like, uh,
Speaker 1: lifetime heroin King Pitt, if you want to say so.
Speaker 1: For me to choose a job as a police officer,
Speaker 1: I kind of like disrespected him and his whole culture.
Speaker 1: He was like, out of all those jobs you can have,
Speaker 1: you choose to be a motherfucker police officer. So I
Speaker 1: never got the respect with his friends that he wanted.
Speaker 1: But that was my story. Uh. Four years air Force
Speaker 1: got out, I was waiting to be a DC police officer.
Speaker 1: I took the psychological examle just one other process I
Speaker 1: was waiting for. And during that time I was like
Speaker 1: head of security for this grocery chain in DC safe Weight. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I was headed security. I took my job lost prevention,
Speaker 1: took my job serious. I made myself a colonel, just
Speaker 1: got some colonel wings to put up there. Um, if
Speaker 1: you go to my grocery store, I was twelve to
Speaker 1: twenty six, no crime, crime free yo. From the title
Speaker 1: lord to the snakes, no crime stud the stakes, Yeah,
Speaker 1: those are the high priority. You don't know this about

Speaker 1: another guy had he had one to and then and
Speaker 1: that's what it is. We we had sections, you know

Speaker 1: gonna get this snicker bar real quick. And then you
Speaker 1: can see like blood from the state back coming down
Speaker 1: inside his place. We thought he trying to kill himself.
Speaker 1: But waiting for that wait to be at d C
Speaker 1: plus police officer. And it's a good friend of my
Speaker 1: friend of mine to this day, Mike Washington. He's to
Speaker 1: worked for the Hostess cup Kick company, right. He was
Speaker 1: delivery guy, so he would he was a comedian at night,
Speaker 1: so he would go to the grocery stores and pass
Speaker 1: us free tickets. Yo, you know, because he wanted to
Speaker 1: pack the room. You know that ship, just like bring
Speaker 1: some people and we break you off. And I started
Speaker 1: going to the comedy club and I was heckling. I would,
Speaker 1: I would heckle comedians. I was notorious. I was. I
Speaker 1: was destroying up us and I had no idea about business, right.
Speaker 1: I tried to get a door deal from the club owner,
Speaker 1: and I never told a joke in my life. I said, look,
Speaker 1: because people really started coming in here be hecko. I
Speaker 1: put them to this. I said, look, man, looks like
Speaker 1: I increased your business about over over a month. It's time,
Speaker 1: you know, me to get a percentage of do it.
Speaker 1: He looked at him, like, if you don't get the
Speaker 1: funk out of my place, but anything. Most of the time,
Speaker 1: a heckler is somebody that wants to be a comedian
Speaker 1: but don't have the balls to do it. They want
Speaker 1: to stay in their lane and they want to entertain Thanksgiving,
Speaker 1: like Brad, you know what I'm saying, like family members
Speaker 1: like he he thought he was doing something because his
Speaker 1: son was laughing at his jokes. I was like that, nigga,
Speaker 1: love you if you can't get your sound and left.
Speaker 1: He just gave you a kidney, nigg what do you
Speaker 1: think you're gonna do? Right? And what would I said?
Speaker 1: So I would a heckler somebody that doesn't have the
Speaker 1: balls to do it, and using the club on it
Speaker 1: was like, well, why don't you go up? The usually
Speaker 1: shut you up. So they invited me to go on
Speaker 1: stage and I didn't get scared the first time. I
Speaker 1: was like, funk that I ain't gonna do it, And
Speaker 1: two weeks later went on stage. First time I advertised
Speaker 1: a microphone. I gotta stand in ovation and it was
Speaker 1: the first time in my life where I said this
Speaker 1: is what I'm gonna be doing for the rest of
Speaker 1: my life. I was like, the whole police ship is over.
Speaker 1: Instantly fell in, fell in love with it and never
Speaker 1: looked back. In twenty seven years, I've still been powering
Speaker 1: everything in my life from telling jokes. Let's go back
Speaker 1: to the grocery store. Can you mentioned you mentioned niggas
Speaker 1: would be stealing stuff? Clarifile, Who are niggers? Um? Nigga's
Speaker 1: And I don't mean this in a derogatory where I'm
Speaker 1: using the same way. You know, you probably in a
Speaker 1: song or whatever and it was nigga's that, niggers that
Speaker 1: still But when you say niggas, you are you talking
Speaker 1: about talking about black people. You're talking about white people,
Speaker 1: making anybody anybody yea, and see these things. I don't
Speaker 1: associate the word digging with any race. There you go context.
Speaker 1: It's like, right, I got you because the reason why
Speaker 1: I asked that because I remember when I was, when
Speaker 1: I was in the big house. Uh. That was this guy,
Speaker 1: this white guy who you know, I was cool with him.
Speaker 1: You know, We're sitting there watching television at the table,
Speaker 1: and and I said, yeah, at the TV table, right,
Speaker 1: And I said, uh, I said something to the fact
Speaker 1: that that nigga, right, and he he started like intensely
Speaker 1: looking at the television like for like I don't see
Speaker 1: any black people up there. And I said, I say,
Speaker 1: I'm talking about the white dude. I said, yeah, NICKA
Speaker 1: could be anybody, man, I said, Nick's attitude. You know,
Speaker 1: it's it's not a person, it's not it's not inity.
Speaker 1: And and that's so true because January six last year,
Speaker 1: right when I turned the mother TV on, you know,
Speaker 1: and watching whatever was going on on the Capitol, I
Speaker 1: was I felt so I grabbed popcorn. I was like,
Speaker 1: this is what I'm talking about. I want y'all this
Speaker 1: see them the way y'all think y'all see us. But
Speaker 1: you know, any any word, it's context. People get cot.
Speaker 1: And we were talking to earlier about the word bitch. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. It's highly offensive if you
Speaker 1: don't use it and write context. You tell a woman
Speaker 1: like I see you're a boss bitch. Oh okay, you
Speaker 1: see me working, You're a bad bitch. Oh sh she
Speaker 1: doing it. But if you see, if you do it
Speaker 1: bit like a Bruno Mars and Bruno, Yeah with you.
Speaker 1: You're playing that song what's the name of that song
Speaker 1: that you're playing on your right now smoking out the window.
Speaker 1: And he actually, I thought somebody has swept the two
Speaker 1: with the word bitch. He actually used the word bitch
Speaker 1: in the song. Yes, and there's no et cry. It's
Speaker 1: not because they know the frustration of that woman that
Speaker 1: they're talking about. He ain't saying do you mean the
Speaker 1: frustration of the man the man, Yeah, he's not said, bitch,
Speaker 1: you take a good care of my son. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like that's us ration, yo, the frustration of a
Speaker 1: man that's pretty much doing everything for a woman, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, making sure she's okay whatever, and
Speaker 1: then she's still belonged to the street. I don't never
Speaker 1: anybody watching this, you're gonna be like, bitch, you know.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's the contest. It's the contest, especially when
Speaker 1: the kids are running your crowd your house, like like jeez,
Speaker 1: and then that's a great style. But you know what,
Speaker 1: at the end of it, I respected that because you know,
Speaker 1: when you're going through a breakup, you know, dishonest, you
Speaker 1: always say, yeah, I want you to be I'm I'm
Speaker 1: rooting for your happiness, I'm rooting for your success. I
Speaker 1: want you to be happy. You say that out but
Speaker 1: on the inside, you're like, boy, hold this bitch fall off,
Speaker 1: please fall off. When you said that line in the end,
Speaker 1: like uh, I wish you the best, but I hope
Speaker 1: you're walking around barefoot it or something, And I was like,
Speaker 1: pull that's button up on that song. Yeah, have you
Speaker 1: ever been in a relationship like that? Yeah? I think
Speaker 1: everybody has what we thought we was. Here's the thing.
Speaker 1: If they for the street, there for the street. But
Speaker 1: you go through a phase of your life where you
Speaker 1: want to be kept to save the whole, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You think you're a certain point and
Speaker 1: you're like like this. You can look at somebody or
Speaker 1: see somebody you like, you know what, that person might
Speaker 1: be a little of trouble and it's only because they
Speaker 1: don't have the right person in their life, you know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You think that's why I don't go
Speaker 1: to like going to strip clubs and ship because I'm
Speaker 1: the dude to being belovele, Like, Yo, what do you
Speaker 1: really want to do with your life? They don't want
Speaker 1: to hear that, you know what I'm saying. You feel
Speaker 1: like you want to save a motherfucker. I had this
Speaker 1: organization years ago. It was called uh save a bit
Speaker 1: dot com right, and the idea of it was, I said,
Speaker 1: a lot of women, certain age, right, they in the
Speaker 1: middle of dealing with temptation or salvation. Right, it's a
Speaker 1: it's a scale. It could go temptation and salvation depending
Speaker 1: on who come in their life. And that's how the
Speaker 1: scale is gonna tell. If it's a person is coming
Speaker 1: there for a damn sure is the persons gonna help
Speaker 1: him out that. But it might be that pimp, motherfucker.
Speaker 1: It might be the person they want to use them,
Speaker 1: you know. And I said, I want to I want
Speaker 1: to like educate women. The organization lasted two months and
Speaker 1: the reason why I tried to say to me business
Speaker 1: at one time, Right, you gotta do it. Huh. Maybe
Speaker 1: it's the name, you know what. I had that argument, right,
Speaker 1: But here's the thing. And I talked to my mother
Speaker 1: about it because she got some foksel. What is your
Speaker 1: son talking about? She said, what we gotta do is
Speaker 1: we gotta give the acronym a different definition, right, And
Speaker 1: I said what mar She said, bitch being in total
Speaker 1: control of herself. And the reason why the peoples like this,
Speaker 1: it's a very provocative word. The men you here, you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: what is this all? About I could have had an
Speaker 1: organization called save a Queen dot com you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Beautiful Beautiful women dot com, or it wouldn't
Speaker 1: have been as engaging as bitch. This is the is
Speaker 1: the is the clickbait. Then get you to call in
Speaker 1: and did you see what I was trying to do?
Speaker 1: And it makes sense? At least I thought it makes sense,
Speaker 1: But the company's now defunk and then no longer exist?
Speaker 1: Know what does what does? What does it mean? Game?
Speaker 1: Bitch my mom's definition of herself. She was like, just
Speaker 1: reinvent the word to put a different definition. I put
Speaker 1: the word delf. You know what delf is, right, Delf
Speaker 1: is what I'm going through my life. Daddy dad, I
Speaker 1: like the you know, milf, but basically saying the older
Speaker 1: guy in staid the same moms. I like the if
Speaker 1: my mom, I like the yeah, daddy's dude. But I
Speaker 1: switched to the acronyms. I said, deaf dad, uh devoted involved,
Speaker 1: loving father. That's how I switched the delf. And I'm
Speaker 1: pushing up. I'm looking involved loving father, trying to switch
Speaker 1: it up. Because we get the rap, we get a
Speaker 1: bad rap. Black men especially get the bad rap when
Speaker 1: it comes to fatherhood for everything, but the one thing
Speaker 1: that they want to promote is like dad because this
Speaker 1: is my fucking ship. But I realized, I'm like, I'm
Speaker 1: saying myself, like what type of people you're around? Because
Speaker 1: everybody that I'm that's that's close to me, they dope
Speaker 1: as fathers. I'm like, where are y'all find Where y'all
Speaker 1: find it? Y'all put the energy, that's just a life period.
Speaker 1: We always put more energy on a negative than positive.
Speaker 1: They get the most attention when it comes to cancel culture.
Speaker 1: I give an example. I know we will probably get
Speaker 1: to a ser later, but I'll say, like, even though
Speaker 1: man Dave with the last special, you're the closer. Right
Speaker 1: if you take a hundred people and you say, what
Speaker 1: do you think about that special? Probably of it if
Speaker 1: five percent would say get it out of here? And
Speaker 1: how does the five percent rule? They get the most attention,
Speaker 1: They get the most attention, They scream, the louders they get,
Speaker 1: they get the most attention up And I even said
Speaker 1: it on my podcast the other day. I said, you know,
Speaker 1: I said, I'm not going to focus on those five
Speaker 1: I want to focus on the people that want to
Speaker 1: see me want to funk with me, you know. But
Speaker 1: it's it takes people like Dave Chappelle, you know that
Speaker 1: could come up and say, you know what, I'm taking
Speaker 1: control of my career. I'm empowering myself. How whether y'all
Speaker 1: like it or not, this is my voice. This is
Speaker 1: the art that I do, and I can't let you
Speaker 1: water it down and let you control what I say.
Speaker 1: Stand up comedy is about finding somebody's personality that you like.
Speaker 1: You engage with them, and you want to hear they
Speaker 1: take on the world. You know what I'm saying and
Speaker 1: the way they want to do that. You can't say this,
Speaker 1: you're gonna say that. So they want every comic to
Speaker 1: sound the same. And that's when the content of comedy
Speaker 1: is going to be dead exactly. Man, tell tell us
Speaker 1: about that a festival that you're doing at the Improv
Speaker 1: in Hollywood. Well, Netflix, Netflix is the first time. Netflix
Speaker 1: is a joke. Years ago, Netflix a comedy festival. Netflix
Speaker 1: is a joke. Yeah, I mean Netflix is talking about
Speaker 1: talking about talking about killers. It's everybody run down. What
Speaker 1: it is is like comedy festivals really became popular, Like
Speaker 1: five years ago you had the Edinburgh Comedy festival, which
Speaker 1: which huge. It was a platform that you could break talent.
Speaker 1: And the one that was really popular in the United
Speaker 1: States was uh Montreal County Festival. That's where Dave Chappelle
Speaker 1: got his big break. So Netflix, no, and it makes sense,
Speaker 1: they're the hugest platforms when it comes to stand up
Speaker 1: comedy right now. So they said, why don't we just,
Speaker 1: you know, instead of just we give these guys money
Speaker 1: for their special why don't we like extend our brand
Speaker 1: get out to more people. Let's do a festival. I
Speaker 1: think the festivals over like six or seven days. It's
Speaker 1: different levels of performances. Like anytime you go to big festivals,
Speaker 1: you get like a grand stage. You've got like some
Speaker 1: arena shows like Gabriel Iglasis he's doing Dodger Stadium. Then
Speaker 1: somebody's doing Stable but then he got two smaller venues
Speaker 1: like the comedy clubs, the theaters. But it's just a
Speaker 1: whole week of a stand up comedy where you get
Speaker 1: to see some of the biggest names in Yeah, it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we um, I'm doing a show. Dave was at the
Speaker 1: Hollywood Bowl probably the most two shows I'm doing to
Speaker 1: show the improv and then Um, I think last year
Speaker 1: we were supposed to do the Mark Lawrence Tour as
Speaker 1: a live Netflix recorded I don't know if you're gonna
Speaker 1: do that, but if that happens, and I'll be a
Speaker 1: part of that too. But it's a good, good place
Speaker 1: for people to see you. And I've talked to some
Speaker 1: comments like, well the money isn't right or whatever, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, I've always been like this. I want to
Speaker 1: perform where the baddest people perform. If I got to
Speaker 1: take a hit on money sometimes just so I can
Speaker 1: say I'm playing in this league to let y'all know,
Speaker 1: you know, paying for pan, I'm on a nice to dude.
Speaker 1: I take advantage of a lot of people. Don't think
Speaker 1: that it's always the money. But it's a great platform. Um,
Speaker 1: it's getting you heard about it, it's getting a lot
Speaker 1: of president should be good to get back to get back.
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle, Danielle Amy Schumer, one of the Sykes, Uh Seinfield,
Speaker 1: Kevin Hart really good, Chris Chris Uh because Chris Rock,
Speaker 1: and the list goes on. You know, when I first
Speaker 1: came across it, I thought that all you guys were
Speaker 1: gonna be on one stage and you know what the
Speaker 1: biggest I was already getting ready to book my teeket
Speaker 1: like I'm I will be there and you can never
Speaker 1: do that. You know why, too many egos you could
Speaker 1: never You everybody saying why can't you put all the
Speaker 1: grades together because somebody could be like who going first?
Speaker 1: You know the diva effect, But it's gonna be but
Speaker 1: tickets have to be five thoud dollars a piece of
Speaker 1: I don't you know what I mean? Like, I don't
Speaker 1: want to close behind nobody. No, I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: have an ego like that because I know in some
Speaker 1: towns like if you call yourself closing behind me, you're
Speaker 1: gonna be fucked. Now, this is this is what Brad does.
Speaker 1: Brad don't close because Brad understands that people get weary,
Speaker 1: even if they love you, they get weary, and people
Speaker 1: got it to do, especially if it's a late show.
Speaker 1: People might leave early, you know what I'm saying. And
Speaker 1: so Brad is like, let me make sure I'm gonna
Speaker 1: hit the motherfucker's why they're at full get up and
Speaker 1: get on up out of that. You know me on
Speaker 1: the other side of that UM as a stand up
Speaker 1: comic coming up. That's was like kind of your first test,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like can you follow somebody?
Speaker 1: And like it was always an opportunity to have a
Speaker 1: defining moment like you could be like when I came
Speaker 1: up there was I used to beat him up at
Speaker 1: the beginning, right, like, yeah, he's funny, but Kenny follows
Speaker 1: so and so, you know, and like you go like
Speaker 1: and I'm talking about the big boys like Tony Woods
Speaker 1: back then, like uh, Teddy Carpet and everything. And I
Speaker 1: always feel I always thought it would be a challenge.
Speaker 1: I'm like, I want to go behind that motherfucker. I
Speaker 1: want the pressure of motherfucker's saying, you know, mother for
Speaker 1: somebody eating room up and they'd be like this, I
Speaker 1: don't know what that next motherfucker going down, he better
Speaker 1: do something. So for me, I never wanted a soft spot.
Speaker 1: Now this ship is so water down. Only when you
Speaker 1: go to comedy club, they're trying to do a lineup
Speaker 1: on what they think that person is going to do
Speaker 1: or what their reputation is. Well, he can't follow him.
Speaker 1: You don't know. You don't know until you do it,
Speaker 1: and then it no better feeling when you go up
Speaker 1: there I'm talking about when somebody like to Teddy Carpet
Speaker 1: back then he was a dude. Nobody want to go
Speaker 1: behind him, right, I'm like, fucking I want to go
Speaker 1: by him. I want to go by anybody. You're gonna
Speaker 1: notice that this young boys coming up? And when when
Speaker 1: you think that crowd is right here, and then you're like,
Speaker 1: there's nothing else and take it up, take him another much.
Speaker 1: At what point did you open for what? Well? At
Speaker 1: what point did did you come after a comedian that
Speaker 1: was the headline and the guy that everybody came to
Speaker 1: see you wrecked it and somebody said, man, you should
Speaker 1: have been headlining. It happens, And what point I'm talking
Speaker 1: about when it first care or in your career, when
Speaker 1: it first happened. It's being quite honest, man, and this
Speaker 1: is not being cocky. That's all true for the most part,
Speaker 1: almost my entire career. You know, Like, but what's that
Speaker 1: first time? You know what, what did that feel like
Speaker 1: the first time somebody said you you should have headlined?
Speaker 1: It didn't go to your head where you didn't you hustle? No,
Speaker 1: you know what, it didn't go to my head because, um,
Speaker 1: I've I've worked with some big names now and that happens, right,
Speaker 1: It didn't go to my head because what people don't
Speaker 1: understand how comedy works, Like people got different styles, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like my style is high energy.
Speaker 1: It's gonna it's gonna be in your face when you
Speaker 1: say you got somebody that went on for like an hour, right,
Speaker 1: and you ain't gotta say you doing it before. You
Speaker 1: ain't gotta do with fifteen minutes. You ain't gotta captivate
Speaker 1: the audience as long as they do that quick hit.
Speaker 1: That's the easiest spot that guests spot. You go up
Speaker 1: in there like for seven or ten minutes. People, Oh
Speaker 1: he was so But all I had to do was
Speaker 1: ten minutes. This person had to do an hour. Then
Speaker 1: he had to transfer the energy from the committee went
Speaker 1: on before after, So I never get caught up in that.
Speaker 1: And it's like I think comedies like like they say football,
Speaker 1: any given Sunday, you know what I mean, Any given Sunday,
Speaker 1: you could be the man. But one night you just
Speaker 1: take an L and somebody shine that night. You know,
Speaker 1: you call it an L like like and hip hop.
Speaker 1: If we bomb on this show, he'd be like, damn,
Speaker 1: I don't even like that word, the word ball. I
Speaker 1: remember when I first started, I was saying this check
Speaker 1: and I mean, I said, this isn't gonna last because
Speaker 1: I went she went to one of my shows, and
Speaker 1: she didn't know that comedians are allergic to the word bomb.
Speaker 1: We don't. I don't use that. I might say, Yo,
Speaker 1: it wasn't as successful as the last show, you know,
Speaker 1: but I had a bad set and she's looked at
Speaker 1: my face. She said, you bombed. I was like, what,
Speaker 1: I don't bomb. I don't know what it was. I
Speaker 1: did that show. She said, you bombed. I did that show,
Speaker 1: went to the Peppermin Lounge and took another hit. She said,
Speaker 1: you bombed again? Cut too, that was bitch you. I
Speaker 1: was like, no, we aren't doing that. Who created the character?
Speaker 1: There was a combination, Like on the paper it read that, um,
Speaker 1: it was a guy in boxers. The only thing I
Speaker 1: knew about him he was in boxing and he had
Speaker 1: dress shoes. But when I was on it, when I
Speaker 1: was on the show, if you really look at, if
Speaker 1: you had an editor tech, how much time I actually
Speaker 1: talked on that show, it would probably be on the time,
Speaker 1: it'd probably like four minutes of dialogue. Because but in,
Speaker 1: which made me realize that every time you see me,
Speaker 1: I gotta kill it on site. You know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: I didn't wait for you to recognize me what I said.
Speaker 1: I want you to recognize me by the characteristics and
Speaker 1: things I added to the character. So this dude was
Speaker 1: in boxers and I said, um, I want to be ashy, right,
Speaker 1: and it reminds me it was like our imitate life.
Speaker 1: Because I was young, I used to shoot dice and
Speaker 1: my mother was like, you've been out to shoot Dice.
Speaker 1: I was like, no, why you say that? She said,
Speaker 1: look at your knees. Your knees all scratched up, and
Speaker 1: she right, because you know you're in the concrete trying
Speaker 1: to get it right. So I was like, I want
Speaker 1: to be ashy. I said, I want to be so ashy.
Speaker 1: I could write how much money people over the side
Speaker 1: of my leg. I want to wake tacto. I'm like,
Speaker 1: look at the look at my thigh. I keep it
Speaker 1: a record right here. And I was like, just I
Speaker 1: wanted to do something extreme, and I went to the
Speaker 1: hair and makeup and I didn't share this with Dave
Speaker 1: O'Neil brennan, but I asked him for some baby powder.
Speaker 1: Right started putting the baby prowder on. I'm back here.
Speaker 1: I didn't let nobody seem I gotta roll, but I
Speaker 1: was like when I come out him and come out,
Speaker 1: I told him, I said, give me some baby power
Speaker 1: rights a baby They don't. He had no dice, or said,
Speaker 1: I know how you had no dice. I'm out here faking.
Speaker 1: I got baby powder. I did like this, I did
Speaker 1: like this, like I was. I was like, right, but
Speaker 1: when I tell you one take, they was like this,
Speaker 1: that's it. And and think about it. When we did
Speaker 1: that sketch, that was the first time we had someone
Speaker 1: outside of our our main crew Charlie me, Bill Burr,
Speaker 1: RFP Right. Eddie Griffin was the first uh like stunt
Speaker 1: you know, stunt caster when they were like, let's put
Speaker 1: these names on it. And that sketch wasn't designed for
Speaker 1: me to shine. If you look at you really, if
Speaker 1: you look a dialogue was Eddie Greets and yeah, if
Speaker 1: you look at the dialogue, right, if you look at
Speaker 1: the dialogue, they had a lot of dialogue. It was
Speaker 1: a conversation. I had just a quick hit, right, And
Speaker 1: I always tell myself, I know what you'll what's supposed
Speaker 1: to happen the sketch. I'm going all out every sketch.
Speaker 1: I treated like I was never gonna be on the show.
Speaker 1: That was the first time you came out with the
Speaker 1: baby pine that it was that on that sketch and
Speaker 1: the thing the body was it was for Eddie. There
Speaker 1: was supposed to be for Eddie. It was for Eddie
Speaker 1: and Dave to like blow it up. It was the
Speaker 1: focus and I was just I was just I just
Speaker 1: zoned out. And I remember Charlie had a mask for
Speaker 1: right and I think he said, like, do you know
Speaker 1: what the funk you're doing to this skit right now?
Speaker 1: I was like act. He was like, man, you're killing
Speaker 1: this ship Eddie. Griffith said, Donna. The reason why that
Speaker 1: sketch worked for you, he said, because you're not afraid
Speaker 1: to get ugly. You know what I'm saying, Like some
Speaker 1: people like, oh, I can't do this and anything. And
Speaker 1: I just went all out and it became one of
Speaker 1: the most memorable characters throughout the two and a half years.
Speaker 1: And this is the show. I don't even have your
Speaker 1: name in my phone as happening there. I have you
Speaker 1: as Diva. I have us Diva, Yes, I do diva motherfucker.
Speaker 1: And that's why I hey when you um when when
Speaker 1: on the third season of The Chappelle Show, it was
Speaker 1: you and Charlie Murphy that came out on the stage
Speaker 1: and you shot a lot of that stuff with or
Speaker 1: without Dave. Everything that the thing about it was very
Speaker 1: question People asked like, oh, how could you do it?
Speaker 1: Everything that that show was about was already in the camp.
Speaker 1: You're looking at the company like legal under the company
Speaker 1: like this all right, we don't know what the deal is.
Speaker 1: It was no communication with Dave or anything. What do
Speaker 1: we do with this? This still our intellectual property? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. In any business like this, how
Speaker 1: how can we put this out? It was a tough
Speaker 1: decision on Miss Charlie's part because we wasn't trying to
Speaker 1: give the impression that we was the next Chappelle Show.
Speaker 1: We weren't trying like, oh, we could take over, you know,
Speaker 1: We're just like how do we present this? And that's
Speaker 1: why I was important the beginning when Charlie was like, yo,
Speaker 1: it was so funny, though, I was like, you know what, man,
Speaker 1: I don't really want to be here, right And I
Speaker 1: was like, speak for yourself that I need all the
Speaker 1: airtime I can get Like it was a funny way.
Speaker 1: And then at the time Dave wasn't communicating with anybody. Heyeh,
Speaker 1: he had picked up the phone and said, you know what,
Speaker 1: I don't want you to do it. Wouldn't wouldn't have
Speaker 1: done it. But at the same time it was a
Speaker 1: great platform for us. So it was Dave indifferent. I've
Speaker 1: heard him make jokes about it on stage, you know, like, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: Dave Chappelle not doing the ship hell show. It is
Speaker 1: like he referenced. I think it was a key and
Speaker 1: Pale reference. It was like, oh, you mean the show
Speaker 1: without that? He was you could tell he was troubled
Speaker 1: by it. But at the same time, um, he had
Speaker 1: a respect for what me and Charlie did as far
Speaker 1: as what we could do to further our career and
Speaker 1: and and get people still check for us. It was
Speaker 1: a dope platform. How do you not do it? How
Speaker 1: long did they go after it was we knew it
Speaker 1: like then we show it was a half of season
Speaker 1: and the only reason like if it was a situation, Okay,
Speaker 1: now we're creating this show with these new skits and stuff.
Speaker 1: We would have never done it, but the fact that
Speaker 1: this was stuff that was supposed to come out anyway,
Speaker 1: it was already in the Cantos copportunity for us to
Speaker 1: continue to do the show. Pay homage to this show.
Speaker 1: I think we did it in the most respectful classes
Speaker 1: where you can do it and we keep it moving.
Speaker 1: But the funny thing about that, a lot of people
Speaker 1: know me and Charlie was doing it. Charlie, isn't he
Speaker 1: like a serious People don't know what we was doing
Speaker 1: that Charlie wearing glasses. Right, This is a funny story, right,
Speaker 1: kind of you give me Charlie energy, you know that. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be I'll be chilled. But if it's gonna
Speaker 1: go down, it's gonna go down. I'm looking right in
Speaker 1: your face. Right. So we're on stage, Charlie wears glasses
Speaker 1: and we had a teleprompter, right, And I guess he
Speaker 1: was going through what you went through, metro sexual part
Speaker 1: of his life where he wanted to wear contacts, no glasses,
Speaker 1: smile a lot he'd been through. You ain't by yourself, Brad,
Speaker 1: You're not You're not alone with your metros. Look how
Speaker 1: you're just doing it now, look at you all right. So,
Speaker 1: so Charlie is up trying to read a teleprompter, right,
Speaker 1: and he like this. He kept sucking up, sir, and
Speaker 1: the audience was getting frustrate. They was like, oh, come on,
Speaker 1: can you read it? Right there? They're starting to heck
Speaker 1: a him. And Charlie's one of the dudes, that dope.
Speaker 1: He'll go at you. Oh you day, don't come in him.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Because I hit hard, it's
Speaker 1: gonna he gonna take a personal. So he's squinting, he
Speaker 1: trying to read and everything, and the crowd. We lose
Speaker 1: the crowd. They're like, oh my god. People start the snicker.
Speaker 1: And I was like, man, this show is gonna be funny.
Speaker 1: I gotta get him laughing again. And I said, I said, Charlie,
Speaker 1: put your glasses on. Blind motherfucker. He did like this.
Speaker 1: He did like this, right he got he said, and
Speaker 1: they said cut and we went backstage. Right, we're in
Speaker 1: the back. White people to stay up, but like people argue, right,
Speaker 1: Charlie said, Charlie said, motherfucker. He was like, he said, motherfucker.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you one thing. Motherfuckers, don't you ever like,
Speaker 1: and I don't want to to think we're about to fight,
Speaker 1: about to fight, so I'm gonna talk to him as eventullokers,
Speaker 1: right he said. He said, don't you ever fucking embarrass me?
Speaker 1: Fuck your els up, I said, Charlie, we're trying to
Speaker 1: do a show. I was like, because I didn't want
Speaker 1: him to swing on me, right, because you can't go
Speaker 1: back out there knotting up. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: They liked, we go back. I got a big gass
Speaker 1: up on my head. A black guy ship. He said,
Speaker 1: let me tell you want to don't you tell embarrassed me? Like,
Speaker 1: just I don't go funk about this TV ship thinking.
Speaker 1: Do you know what I said? I said, I hear
Speaker 1: we ran to do a show. Oh man, I missed
Speaker 1: that dude. That was my god? Man what he really
Speaker 1: is due? Alright? P Charlie Murphy. Man, Charlie Murphy. He
Speaker 1: was special. He was one of those And everybody say
Speaker 1: the same thing pretty much about Charlie. Stand up, dude,
Speaker 1: real real solid. Can you share like another story that
Speaker 1: maybe like a story that that people are may not
Speaker 1: know have heard about Charlie? Um, because you gots spent
Speaker 1: a lot of time to get Charlie named Charlie. We
Speaker 1: do that Willie. His mama named the Charlie. She didn't
Speaker 1: name him Charlie. But you know, I want to say
Speaker 1: about it, even saying Charlie, this is the dopest thing.
Speaker 1: I think, the best thing that came out of Charlie's
Speaker 1: relationship Charlie on a on A Chappelle Show. Um, I
Speaker 1: couldn't even imagine being the older brother of one of
Speaker 1: the most successful comics in the history of comedy and
Speaker 1: still having aspirations to either do it or that field,
Speaker 1: because you're gonna be compared all the time. Right, But
Speaker 1: it was fun them. He was funny. Yo. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you. If anybody knows Charlie like I've been around
Speaker 1: Charlie in his whole family, Right, if you've been around
Speaker 1: Charlie Eddie in the whole family, you realize Charlie was
Speaker 1: the funniest motherfucker in the family. But they chose different paths,
Speaker 1: you could tell, And you could tell that Eddie probably
Speaker 1: looked up to try like this mother funny, but Charlie
Speaker 1: was like this funk that I didn't you know, you
Speaker 1: know he was. He was on this on the street
Speaker 1: side of But the thing that I really appreciate the
Speaker 1: most what Chapelle Ship different, Chapelle Show different. When Charlie
Speaker 1: passed away, it would have been, it would have been
Speaker 1: the headlines have been, like Eddie Murphy's brother passes away.
Speaker 1: You know, the show really gave Charlie his identity of
Speaker 1: being his own man, his own artist, his own creative,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like it was Charlie Murphy
Speaker 1: that show gave him his name, and that's what they
Speaker 1: respected when he passed away. But Eddie. Did Eddie come
Speaker 1: to Charlie's services because I heard that he don't do
Speaker 1: that unless he was with some glasses in the hoodie
Speaker 1: in the back. You know, I didn't see it, and
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not wanting to didn't do funeral services. Man.
Speaker 1: You know, my mom's twin brother didn't show up to
Speaker 1: her funeral, and I man, I was hot. You know.
Speaker 1: I took it very personal because you know, they were
Speaker 1: always close and I was close to him. He was
Speaker 1: he just wanted to taught me how to box, and
Speaker 1: you know, I took it very personal. I didn't speak
Speaker 1: to him for a year, and one day he was
Speaker 1: at my sister's house, and and I just confronted him
Speaker 1: about it, you know, not in an aggressive manner, but
Speaker 1: just you know, hey, you know, we started chopping it up,
Speaker 1: and I was like, man, you know, like say uncle,
Speaker 1: you know, just let him know it was bothering me
Speaker 1: that he didn't come to my mom's funeral. And he said,
Speaker 1: he said that he had a fight that day. You know,
Speaker 1: he's a boxing trainer, so he said one of his
Speaker 1: guys had a fight on that day and he thought
Speaker 1: about not going, but he said he went the clearest
Speaker 1: head and I had and I had to respect that
Speaker 1: because people do more differently, and I can under know
Speaker 1: even in the case where like Eddie Murphy, I could
Speaker 1: see how Eddie Murphy's presence anywhere we created spectacle that
Speaker 1: it takes away from absolutely brilliant. Bro. I don't see
Speaker 1: how people can can stand in front of Eddie Murphy
Speaker 1: and deliver lines like that would be impossible. Have you
Speaker 1: ever done that? I haven't. You know, I'm excited about
Speaker 1: the opportunities super funny bro speak more. But that ship
Speaker 1: makes me like that ship brings out the best of me.
Speaker 1: Like when we were doing spell Show, we had a
Speaker 1: blueprint of what we wanted to do, but then we
Speaker 1: would start with that, then the turn to something else.
Speaker 1: But we had like healthy competition, you know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying everybody. It wasn't like Okay, I just want to
Speaker 1: do it this way. It was like this, okay, Charlie,
Speaker 1: do an ad lib. I do an ad lib. And
Speaker 1: it keeps going on and knowing it and then it
Speaker 1: was just it. Just when we would with the whack
Speaker 1: Arno scared half the ship. I said on that show,
Speaker 1: I made up the whack Arnold sketch. Um when when
Speaker 1: when when when? When they say, uh, Calvin got a job.
Speaker 1: When they walked down the street, we was like to
Speaker 1: just crack talking ship right, and I kept on saying,
Speaker 1: it's a thing line between fries and ships. The meat
Speaker 1: ist burger in the world could be the lead ist
Speaker 1: burger in the world if you cook it that way.
Speaker 1: Neil Brendan walked past. He said, what you say. I said,
Speaker 1: it's a thing, you know. I just went in and
Speaker 1: he was like, dude, that ship and the ship stopped
Speaker 1: half the ship I did on that On that show,
Speaker 1: they stopped writing for me. They started just with put
Speaker 1: sutton and just like a long line like, just do
Speaker 1: what you do. And I always told people, like always
Speaker 1: always felt just everything go harder, don't you. You can't
Speaker 1: assume that you're gonna be back here because we didn't
Speaker 1: have a contract. You know what I'm saying, You're just
Speaker 1: going up there like this might be my last time,
Speaker 1: and and and eat it up. They speak more to
Speaker 1: what you were saying about Charlie Murphy being you know,
Speaker 1: the brother of one of the biggest comedians in the world,
Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy, and and being okay with that speak more
Speaker 1: to that. Well, he he was true to himself, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, who knew, he knew who he was.
Speaker 1: He could easily go up there like and try to
Speaker 1: mimic Eddie. And even when he first started stand up
Speaker 1: because the first time he ever want to stand up stage,
Speaker 1: I pushed him into it. We were doing a Chapelle
Speaker 1: show right two years. I wasn't making a lot of money.
Speaker 1: That contract with the money wasn't gonna come in to
Speaker 1: like the third season. You know, it wasn't making a
Speaker 1: lot of money. And I was like, but we're popular
Speaker 1: everybody like Charlie. I'm like, man, we gotta get this money.
Speaker 1: So I said that we need to do a tour.
Speaker 1: I came with the idea of doing the tour. I
Speaker 1: called it the Um the Rich Bitch Tour, right um Burke.
Speaker 1: He said he was a young agent back then. He
Speaker 1: represents some big names now. It was the first. It
Speaker 1: was the first major tour, if you want to say
Speaker 1: he had as a young agent. If you come in
Speaker 1: and you get connected to like a tour, that's a
Speaker 1: tour of some of the main players are one of
Speaker 1: the biggest shows in pop culture. And I was like,
Speaker 1: I want to do this tour. Charlie is popping. Charlie
Speaker 1: never did stand up right. I was like, I gotta
Speaker 1: get Charlie trained. And I used to talk about Charlie.
Speaker 1: I said, you're a tough motherfucker until somebody put that
Speaker 1: microphone in your face. I said, you not up then,
Speaker 1: and you don't like to be challenged like that. So
Speaker 1: we went to I took him to an open mic,
Speaker 1: the first time he ever went on stage. You could
Speaker 1: tell he was a little nervous, but he still did
Speaker 1: it right. And I said, all I need is ten
Speaker 1: minutes out of him. Ten minutes. They Charlie married Jolie
Speaker 1: Berthy is rich bitche tour ten minutes and didn't get
Speaker 1: to me. Then at the time, Bill Burt, Bill Burr's
Speaker 1: a huge name in Connie right now, Bill Burt was
Speaker 1: about the bus, right, he was about the bubble, but
Speaker 1: he still wasn't he was still working b rooms, you know.
Speaker 1: And I said, let me I want I don't want
Speaker 1: this show. I wanted to be a quality show. I
Speaker 1: don't want just to be like a fluffer or something
Speaker 1: in the middle. I was like, why not have Bill
Speaker 1: Burrow on the show? Because Bill Burr was an animal
Speaker 1: and by the way, he killed that commentator role on
Speaker 1: the on the world. It was like it was like
Speaker 1: everybody at that time was like bubbling, right, And I said,
Speaker 1: we're gonna do this tour. I was like, Charlie u
Speaker 1: mc um, Bill Bird, no disrespect to you being the headliner,
Speaker 1: but I'm a bigger draw of the show than Bill Bird.
Speaker 1: So it's Charlie Bill Bird and then our headline. And
Speaker 1: going back to we're talking about following somebody. When I
Speaker 1: saw my final Piole day, try coming behind Bill Burt
Speaker 1: for motherfucking forty five weekends out of a year, you
Speaker 1: have no time off. There's not one day you can slip.
Speaker 1: And there's a couple of times I didn't have a
Speaker 1: great show, and I noticed because I'm calming cards to
Speaker 1: come back. They're like, yeah, just like you said, they said, yeah,
Speaker 1: they should have had the white boy headline. Right. I
Speaker 1: was like, we're not gonna do that again. But in
Speaker 1: that's how we had to make an adjustment and and
Speaker 1: Charlie was off to the races after that. He was
Speaker 1: can you imagine selling out across the country as an
Speaker 1: open mic and learning the craft as you're selling out?
Speaker 1: And people were super critical to him, like it was
Speaker 1: you can hear some roughly. He and his brother he
Speaker 1: you know Eddie Murphy, but he wasn't trying to be
Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy. Who was trying to be him and he
Speaker 1: and he became what he is one of the dopest storytellers.
Speaker 1: Can captivate the audiers. Don't gotta jump up and gotta
Speaker 1: yell at then just sit there and talk. What's the
Speaker 1: comedy card? What do you mean you said the comedy
Speaker 1: cards would comment comment comment cards? You know how to
Speaker 1: be like, don't go to comments exact like they were
Speaker 1: trying to see what they want to bring back. What
Speaker 1: do you like who was your funniest you know, and
Speaker 1: did you read those cards? They somebody just called you
Speaker 1: and told you what they were saying. Did you read
Speaker 1: the cards to yourself? Yeah, I would, I would snatch,
Speaker 1: I'll go back, like how am I doing to the box?
Speaker 1: But I but I knew it's certain clubs that like
Speaker 1: it was certain clubs went to Bill burd would just
Speaker 1: he just would shine. But we had like we did
Speaker 1: that in like two thousand, two thousand and six and
Speaker 1: one of the best touring experiences I've had to this day. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I really do like Bill burr Man. He's one of
Speaker 1: the most honest comedians out that and and well informed.
Speaker 1: UM speak speak to whose idea was for Charlie to
Speaker 1: get in a storytelling lane as opposed to a punch
Speaker 1: line lane. It was all by accident. Like you gotta
Speaker 1: realized when we went to go to work, I never
Speaker 1: feel like we were work when we went through set.
Speaker 1: I never feel like it was working. I was like,
Speaker 1: we just had a good time. And Charlie has a
Speaker 1: million stories and we've just been in lunch, having lunch
Speaker 1: talking and you would hear these stories of David's like like,
Speaker 1: are you serious? And how do you remember that stuff
Speaker 1: Man got. He's really detailed. He's just I don't know
Speaker 1: what process was whatever. He's a born ship talker, you know,
Speaker 1: he was a born ship talking but he would tell
Speaker 1: the stories. And I remember Man that we got them
Speaker 1: Rick James story. They was like, it was just like
Speaker 1: you just Charlie would just talk. Charlie would talk and
Speaker 1: the script me like just and it's just doing it
Speaker 1: just there was. It's a crazy thing about that sketch.
Speaker 1: This is how companies use sometimes they don't know what
Speaker 1: the a you're talking about. At the time. Communiy Center
Speaker 1: that sketch, that episode, they hated it. This is what
Speaker 1: they said. They said, it's too long. Nobody had ever
Speaker 1: did a sketch like the entire show. It was like,
Speaker 1: it's too long, and Charlie Murphy's not funny. Now we
Speaker 1: see how wrong they worry about that, and we stuck
Speaker 1: to our guns. They pushed forward and what we call
Speaker 1: it the wrap arounds. The wrap arounds is when you
Speaker 1: already had the stuff you recorded right, and then you
Speaker 1: played for everybody to see in front of a last audience.
Speaker 1: And I've seen that room erupt but I've never seen
Speaker 1: anything um erupt, like when when the first time Dave said,
Speaker 1: I'm Rick James, bitch, one of the baddest motherfucker's ever.
Speaker 1: Another thing, this is when you know you're incredible, uh
Speaker 1: communic actor when you could be a motherfucker that you
Speaker 1: don't look nothing like you, that don't look nothing like him,
Speaker 1: but you feel that was Rick James. Yeah, that's fucking
Speaker 1: acting when you can take it away from you know,
Speaker 1: some people like this, we gotta get this guy to
Speaker 1: play this role because he looks like him. I didn't
Speaker 1: even do that and smoked that ship man. I can
Speaker 1: see why Joe Rogan has invited you back on his
Speaker 1: show multiple times, because you know, Joe talks to really
Speaker 1: brilliant people. It's a lot of people that come on
Speaker 1: his show were very very brilliant and fascinating. You know,
Speaker 1: you got that ship man, and it's that information that
Speaker 1: you got. Where did that come from? Life experiences? Fucking
Speaker 1: getting burnt, you know what I'm saying, getting rejected, you know,
Speaker 1: but it had to be also like on your behalf
Speaker 1: a wheel to want to be better and want to
Speaker 1: learn always always. I've been doing it for twenty years,
Speaker 1: right and I've right out the gate, I was funny
Speaker 1: at the twenty year career. Really, I still feel like
Speaker 1: every year I get better and that's coming from having
Speaker 1: some bomb's years like being on Fire two years ago,
Speaker 1: and continue because I always can find something new. I
Speaker 1: always could figure out another way to present a joke, attitude,
Speaker 1: just positive and stavid. I'm always practiced on how I
Speaker 1: can get better. But going back on the on the
Speaker 1: on the Joe Rogan one, I'll tell you one thing.
Speaker 1: The person people that Joe Rogan always has when the
Speaker 1: people on this show, it's people he respect. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. He's never gonna have nobody on this
Speaker 1: show just because like, oh this will be interesting. It's
Speaker 1: something that he connects with somebody hot just because they're hot.
Speaker 1: That's not what he He's a true motherfucker. And I
Speaker 1: used to and I knew how powerful Joe Rogan was
Speaker 1: with his podcast, and I was like, I'm gonna get
Speaker 1: on this podcast. But they ain't gonna be from like, hey,
Speaker 1: can it be your podcast. It's gonna be because he's
Speaker 1: gonna see me in the riches and he gained respect
Speaker 1: for me as a stand up and what I brought
Speaker 1: to the stand up, you know, not just the hell
Speaker 1: you don't give a funk about that, just pel show ship.
Speaker 1: It was about how are you flat footed with a
Speaker 1: mic in front of an audience? And I was like,
Speaker 1: eventually I would get the call or the or the
Speaker 1: invite just off of that. In my relationship in comedy period,
Speaker 1: I never wanted to be close to a comedian. I
Speaker 1: never wanna be like, hey, your friend. The only the
Speaker 1: only way I wanted to respect me it is from
Speaker 1: what I do on the mic. The other ship, I
Speaker 1: don't give a funk about it, Let's go on to
Speaker 1: goddamn stage. Is that how you and they became close
Speaker 1: and we well, yeah, the respect for each other's as
Speaker 1: um as comedians. Because David is younger than me, but
Speaker 1: he started before me. And when he started, like when
Speaker 1: I started comedy in d C, David already moved to
Speaker 1: New York. And like for anybody from like a small
Speaker 1: town or whatever, your best sign of you trying to
Speaker 1: do something is when you leave home. And back then
Speaker 1: when I first started, it wasn't like now where you
Speaker 1: could blow yourself up in your living room on the internet.
Speaker 1: You had to hit the pavement. So David went to
Speaker 1: New York. I'm still in d C. And I was
Speaker 1: always I was like yo, I was like, oh popping,
Speaker 1: like who popping? DC? Who popping? Like Yo, you gotta
Speaker 1: check out. This is my day, Sapel. I'm like this
Speaker 1: he popping there was like yeah. I was like so
Speaker 1: and they would has told this story. I said, what
Speaker 1: makes him so nice? They was like he's young, he's smart,
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. And I was like, OKAYU that
Speaker 1: naked right, not in a bad way. I just felt like, okay,
Speaker 1: I want to get people to appreciate me the same way.
Speaker 1: And then Dave it would come and he shared this story.
Speaker 1: And on my fities birthday he would go to d
Speaker 1: C and he would ask who's the hot comics? Gud
Speaker 1: now and he said, it used me to use your suspects,
Speaker 1: Tony Woods. He would name on this purse all these
Speaker 1: people and he said, but there's this one young cat
Speaker 1: that's coming up day. Dave said. He was like, funk
Speaker 1: that nigg yo, that's a story I gotta record. He
Speaker 1: was like, but that's how that's how we were, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. But it's fun competition and Dave
Speaker 1: gained respect for me, not for me trying to be
Speaker 1: his friend or anything other than the dude has the
Speaker 1: work ethics, he's funny, and then when we call him
Speaker 1: into the game, he scores. And I think that's how
Speaker 1: he should build all relationships, Like what what what do
Speaker 1: you do? You know? Are you good at? Do you
Speaker 1: work hard at it? You know, Dave is one of
Speaker 1: those brilliant minded people that I mentioned, uh that often
Speaker 1: on the Joe Rogan podcast. You being his friend and
Speaker 1: uh knowing how you know he operates and having respect
Speaker 1: that you obviously have for him as as a friend
Speaker 1: and as a human being. Hal often is that reciprocated
Speaker 1: where he actually comes to you for advice or you know, direction,
Speaker 1: He don't really come to me for advice and the
Speaker 1: direction he'll come to me as me as a listener here,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, you know, so smart
Speaker 1: and so wise, it's not too much and we like
Speaker 1: share information just on how we move and the choices
Speaker 1: we make. But he don't come to me like that,
Speaker 1: you know. But you know the duders are talking. Man.
Speaker 1: I remember used to getting trouble with this girl I
Speaker 1: used to day because I used to coming at three
Speaker 1: or four o'clock in the morning, five o'clock, and I'm like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was. We was just sitting around talking to day.
Speaker 1: Really y'all, just sitting around, y'all, just sitting around, grown
Speaker 1: as man, just sitting around talking about the world. And
Speaker 1: it's the truth, you know, like one of the smartest,
Speaker 1: one of the smartest people I've ever met in regard
Speaker 1: to being able to talk about any subject. I'm like,
Speaker 1: how does a motherfucker get this much knowledge college? You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Just like it's one of those
Speaker 1: special people. But you know, we touched. It's so crazy
Speaker 1: because him being young at me. Sometimes I go to
Speaker 1: him for advice or what your thoughts are because he's
Speaker 1: been doing it longer than me, and he he thinks
Speaker 1: different they're not do I'm you know what, mother, always
Speaker 1: want to just get at somebody that whatever, don't give
Speaker 1: a fun that we can fight whatever, not so much fight,
Speaker 1: but just that type of energy. And he's always be
Speaker 1: like the piece mother. Okay, but listen, you know, has
Speaker 1: your son Austin dialed back in here? That hyper energy
Speaker 1: for me? Yeah? Yeah, yep, my son is funny dude. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how old is he? Not? Like he said my son
Speaker 1: when he was born and he was post man. You
Speaker 1: was happy. I thought I was out the game. Bro Man,
Speaker 1: you boy, you can tell man. And I not embarrassed
Speaker 1: to say that. It's one of the topest things I've
Speaker 1: ever done, you know what I'm saying. And it's one
Speaker 1: thing to be into your career so much that for
Speaker 1: some people that part of life you pass them. But
Speaker 1: mentally you have to prepare yourself for it. You gotta
Speaker 1: prepare yourself for like ask you why you don't got
Speaker 1: no kids. You gave something wrong with them. You gotta
Speaker 1: prepare yourself that and then you make choices. You can
Speaker 1: get deep in it. It can ruin your mental or
Speaker 1: you could say, well, you know what a lot of
Speaker 1: people do, I'm gonna focus on my career. You know
Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I got nieces, I got nephews, I'd
Speaker 1: be a great uncle. Whatever, I'm gonna focus on that,
Speaker 1: or it would drive you crazy. And I had already
Speaker 1: settled with the fact that you probably won't have no kids,
Speaker 1: and I was cool with it. I was like, well,
Speaker 1: then you your grind. It's going to be to help
Speaker 1: other people and your family. And then I was lucky
Speaker 1: enough that I'm my lady. I remember what she told.
Speaker 1: She was probably first thing I said about who I
Speaker 1: heard that scared? Did you said the nineties? Did you
Speaker 1: believe that you did? You believe that you were shooting blanks?
Speaker 1: So what was happening blanks? I just was. I was.
Speaker 1: I was definitely a practice safe sex motherfucker, you know,
Speaker 1: wrapping it up, trapping up. And then you know that
Speaker 1: I don't like that CARDI Beats song because they said
Speaker 1: they're pussy so wet, they fuck your pull off game, right,
Speaker 1: that would have worked in the nineties game we make that.
Speaker 1: But I just was, you know, I took care myself,
Speaker 1: was cautious, and it just didn't happen. But when it happened,
Speaker 1: it was like the first time, I know, it sounds crazy,
Speaker 1: the first time I have a question God. And it
Speaker 1: was the lady was pregnant and at the beginning doctor
Speaker 1: said just just just didn't give us no good signs
Speaker 1: and it would be like a healthy pregnancy or whatever.
Speaker 1: You know. They got so at my age, I was like, man,
Speaker 1: I don't know what that I talked to talking about.
Speaker 1: I'm buying juicers in all type of shop. I was like,
Speaker 1: we need to eat healthier. I'm talking about we. I
Speaker 1: was just like, I'm gonna do everything I can. Three
Speaker 1: months into the pregnancy, I was in Australia and she
Speaker 1: lost the baby, right, and I was mad as ship
Speaker 1: at God. So I was like, I was like, man,
Speaker 1: and this is why I was mad at guy. I
Speaker 1: was like this, I don't even really call you for
Speaker 1: a lot of ship, you know what I'm saying, Like
Speaker 1: I'm not wanting you know, some people like just cold
Speaker 1: died for every goddamn Oh my god, I hope this
Speaker 1: light don't turn red. I can't afford just take a God,
Speaker 1: please just get me out of this. I called him
Speaker 1: for real ship, like, let me have a healthy baby,
Speaker 1: Let me have a baby. I was mad. Right. Three
Speaker 1: months later she got pregnant again, and then I had
Speaker 1: to apologize. I was like, you know, I was having
Speaker 1: a bad day. You know what I'm saying. I asked
Speaker 1: you was something and you didn't come through it. Don't
Speaker 1: even be asking you for stuff like that. And then
Speaker 1: if anybody had that experience of having a miscarriage, right,
Speaker 1: and then when that happened, I just really was like, damn,
Speaker 1: people really don't understand how serious it is to have
Speaker 1: a kid. It ain't guaranteed. You've got people out here
Speaker 1: with it that spending hundreds of thousand dollars for a
Speaker 1: shot at it having a baby. Yeah, and then you
Speaker 1: got motherfucker to have kids. Don't want to be in life.
Speaker 1: This ship is just it's mind boggling to me. But
Speaker 1: it just made me really value what pro creating really meant.
Speaker 1: And then if you've ever been in a situation where
Speaker 1: you've had someone and you had a miscarriage, all you're
Speaker 1: trying to do is get past that last mark. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You was like you like three
Speaker 1: months and it didn't work out, so you nourish damn.
Speaker 1: But nowadays, because modern size and everything, you can always
Speaker 1: kind of know what's cooling. There's so much test and everything.
Speaker 1: And at the third months, stop building more confidence, the
Speaker 1: fourth month stopped building more confidence. Fifth month, I was like, oh, Ship,
Speaker 1: this is really fucking happening. And when that dude crowned out, Yo,
Speaker 1: I don't give a how tough you e you are.
Speaker 1: When you see that mothercker come out, YO, look at
Speaker 1: my face. Oh I had the all and I got
Speaker 1: and I had the all. I was soft and ships.
Speaker 1: I said, you know, you can hear you could see
Speaker 1: me taking a deep breath, like and it was the
Speaker 1: most the topest thing. Having that little boy right now
Speaker 1: is about everything I feel, you man, With all of
Speaker 1: the accolades that I've had, Man, you know, gold albums,
Speaker 1: you know, boxing championship trophies, you know, money, the cars,
Speaker 1: the homes, Nothing, and I mean nothing remotely comes close
Speaker 1: to the excitement the joy that I felt. It feels
Speaker 1: my daughter was born. My daughter was always tell people
Speaker 1: that the two happiest moments, most satisfying moments in my
Speaker 1: life was when my first of all with my daughter
Speaker 1: was born was number one. Number two was when my
Speaker 1: son was born. Everything, yes, man, I can, I can.
Speaker 1: I have to try to debate because you because the
Speaker 1: reason why, because you kind gonna. I want to know
Speaker 1: what your true purpose is? Right, what? What? Why am
Speaker 1: I really here and me having that experience of having
Speaker 1: a son, I'm like, this is my purpose. This is
Speaker 1: the reason why I want to work so hard, this
Speaker 1: is the reason why I try to live life as
Speaker 1: correct as possible. You're going for something. Before that you
Speaker 1: told you you're like that's saying you're selfish, but when
Speaker 1: it's just you, that's you don't gotta worry about. Now
Speaker 1: you've got that add a sense of responsibility. A kid
Speaker 1: would make you want to straighten your ship up, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean? And you want to be an
Speaker 1: example for him. And in a lot of cases, and
Speaker 1: in my case, like you, I want to be better
Speaker 1: than my father was. And I no disreflect to my father,
Speaker 1: but my father chose a lifestyle that didn't give him
Speaker 1: an opportunity to spend as much time as he probably
Speaker 1: wanted with his kids. And I love me passed away
Speaker 1: three years ago. But when you look at that, especially
Speaker 1: for me, people like, why are you so into this much?
Speaker 1: I said, because I have probably ten good memories with
Speaker 1: my father, right, I was like, this is my my
Speaker 1: focus was. I just want to make memories with him.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't want to have to keep telling
Speaker 1: the same story. I gotta tell the same story, you know.
Speaker 1: I want to make memories with him, and I want
Speaker 1: to do better then my dad. That's why sometimes you
Speaker 1: fucked up fathers create better. Dad's true. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: It's like, okay, so she didn't he just how we're
Speaker 1: supposed to do it until this day, man, my son
Speaker 1: got so much memories until this day, he's shout out
Speaker 1: to all the fantastic fathers out there. Man, we don't
Speaker 1: we don't get our problems. Man, you know they definitely
Speaker 1: beat me up. Yeah, Brad got some Brad got some
Speaker 1: great boys man and girls too. But I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: not really I don't really know. I only know Brandy.
Speaker 1: But but but he I know I can bouch for
Speaker 1: boys because I know them. Fantastic, great great kids, great kids. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I look forward to being a better grandfather than I
Speaker 1: was a father. But you gotta look at it. This
Speaker 1: is another thing to think about. It's all like relevant
Speaker 1: to where you were in your life. And I always
Speaker 1: say that all my friends kids are so much older
Speaker 1: than my son. But I just said, I said, what,
Speaker 1: what what would happen done there? What type of person
Speaker 1: do you think you would have been our dad if
Speaker 1: you was like right at the beginning of your career?
Speaker 1: Old you know what I'm saying you and you're still
Speaker 1: trying to get the best pussy out there? What old
Speaker 1: mentor of mind told me? What Andy has? He said?
Speaker 1: Down Hill? This is when your career blows up, when
Speaker 1: you everything you want to fuck right you got that
Speaker 1: out your system. And he said, um, you gotta remember uh,
Speaker 1: no pussy, it's gonna be better than new pussy. M hm.
Speaker 1: And I think you said you you referenced something close
Speaker 1: to that when when I was listen into on the
Speaker 1: podcast and you just talk about when you can control,
Speaker 1: you said, we can control your penis. Yeah, the two
Speaker 1: things and that a man must learn to control, and
Speaker 1: that is his emotions and his penis. That's if you
Speaker 1: can do that, you know, you can really maximize, you know,
Speaker 1: your potential. You know what. Let's go back to uh,
Speaker 1: to the um the miscarriage. When your girl had that miscarriage.
Speaker 1: I know you said you were angry with God, but
Speaker 1: were you also angry with her? And the reason why,
Speaker 1: the reason why I never like we don't exist in
Speaker 1: the same mental space anymore. The reason I wasn't upset
Speaker 1: with her because, uh, she gave me her body. What
Speaker 1: I'm saying, she gave me her body. She sacrificed, sacrifice.
Speaker 1: And this is what you gotta respect about the matter
Speaker 1: how relationship go. She get my body and she said,
Speaker 1: this is what I want to do. And I know
Speaker 1: it was she super excited about having a kid. I
Speaker 1: don't think so. But we were in love at the
Speaker 1: time and she felt like this was something and I
Speaker 1: talked about it like whatever. She thought that this was
Speaker 1: something that would can complete my journey. So, um no,
Speaker 1: I never was mad at So she had the baby
Speaker 1: as a gift to you, so to speak. That's that's
Speaker 1: probably a combination. But it's a tough question. You know.
Speaker 1: I think she probably was curious about mom lifestyle, but
Speaker 1: I think it was more. I really do believe that
Speaker 1: she really felt like how happy it would make me.
Speaker 1: And then we was new relationship. You know, at the beginning,
Speaker 1: the muther do anything, but yeah, I can go for that.
Speaker 1: And the beginning everything to make you ever did like,
Speaker 1: oh you start getting older and ship old ass motherfucker.
Speaker 1: But you know, Grayer, the ain't talking about go take
Speaker 1: your medicine, take your pills, sit your old ass where
Speaker 1: you better put that basketball dad before you pop something.
Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure it wasn't. It was It was
Speaker 1: her like wanting me to be happy with that part
Speaker 1: of my life. Man, talk about how it is when
Speaker 1: you're this guy who is a comedian and people expect
Speaker 1: you to always be funny and to be that guy
Speaker 1: who is the jokester, right when you're not always that guy?
Speaker 1: You know, how how do how do you balance that?
Speaker 1: I'm usually, for the most part, always the funniest person
Speaker 1: in the room. But you know, I got limits to it.
Speaker 1: I'm not And it's not me trying to be like
Speaker 1: the funny guys, just my personality. Some people have just
Speaker 1: had those personalities where they're just a funny motherfucker. You know.
Speaker 1: I tell people all the time, Yeah, you'll pay you'll
Speaker 1: pay uh to see me perform, but just hang out
Speaker 1: with me for a day. It's gonna be way more
Speaker 1: funny than that stage. But people that know me, they know,
Speaker 1: like funny person, but I'm serious at the same time.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't I don't do the clown ship
Speaker 1: and the trip. Part about it is that most comedians
Speaker 1: have those two sides. I mean, they are funny, but
Speaker 1: most of the time when you actually hang out with comedians,
Speaker 1: you're not just laughing. You know, you're talking about life
Speaker 1: and stuff like that, or you just chilling and you
Speaker 1: don't like. I don't like, but I don't hang out
Speaker 1: with silly. Mother's just always got to try to be
Speaker 1: like broups. Yeah, that's that's if you're funny. You're funny.
Speaker 1: You know, you don't gotta force that ship. But people
Speaker 1: that know me, they know, like even people see me
Speaker 1: before show, what's wrong? Would you? Are you okay? I
Speaker 1: just tap out, just zone out, kind of meditate and
Speaker 1: get ready to go do my show. I would say
Speaker 1: this though, man like Don Ellen is really really funny

Speaker 1: time the first time I ever saw Paul Money. It
Speaker 1: was a comedy story and I don't even think I
Speaker 1: was doing comedy at the time, just went there and
Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, the Funcker's this dude that don't
Speaker 1: give a funk about white people things at all? You
Speaker 1: know what they say, zero fox zero. Paul Mooney would
Speaker 1: go up in there and walk have the audience, Well,
Speaker 1: I never get out of here, bitch, It's okay. You
Speaker 1: never you never hear that, you know, Paul Paul would
Speaker 1: walk you. And then by time you left out, it
Speaker 1: was thirty other people that wanted to come in and
Speaker 1: sit down. And I was like this, you know, he
Speaker 1: was a hard on white people. I was about to
Speaker 1: defend white men. I was like, how dare you talk
Speaker 1: about I felt sell out Like, I was like, how
Speaker 1: did you can't talk to the white man like that?
Speaker 1: And he had to leve the confidence he was goes.
Speaker 1: He used to go on airlines on Broadway days. They
Speaker 1: have a disclaimer at the beginning if you're easily offended,
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, blah blah. Just don't even because we're
Speaker 1: gonna we're not giving Carolines where Caroline's on Broadway because
Speaker 1: I was I thought you said somewhere else, because I
Speaker 1: know obviously know the one in New York. But no,
Speaker 1: But he was and and and Paul Mooney was one
Speaker 1: of those guys that throughout the comedy uh, the comedy circuit,
Speaker 1: they had respect. They knew who he was and respected
Speaker 1: and know what he did as a writer for Richard
Speaker 1: and who he was. But like for the general public,
Speaker 1: a lot of people didn't know what his contribution was
Speaker 1: to comedy and entertainment. In your in your opinion, who
Speaker 1: is today's Paul Mooney, I'd say it's it. Signs are different.
Speaker 1: Who gets there the closest, though, who's the closest I think,
Speaker 1: I think, um, Dave. But but but the thing is
Speaker 1: like one thing Dave don't like Paul Mooney comes off
Speaker 1: you would think like agitated or upset. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So that's why sometimes you don't people don't
Speaker 1: give it a fair listen. But Dave's very approachable, David
Speaker 1: is very likable, but he's saying exactly some of the
Speaker 1: same ships and moving almost similar to Paul Paul Mooney.
Speaker 1: Paul Mooney would have never gave a funk about cancel
Speaker 1: culture the same way Dave don't never get fun about
Speaker 1: cancel culture, the same way Bill Bird don't give you
Speaker 1: got As much of people say comedy is getting sucked up,
Speaker 1: you still have people that stand up on what it
Speaker 1: means to be a stand up and say fuck it.
Speaker 1: And those are the people that empower themselves. Those are
Speaker 1: people that say I'm doing this my way, I don't
Speaker 1: give a funk, and they put the power. One of
Speaker 1: the dopest things Dave people say, you always talk about
Speaker 1: Dave here one of my closest friends. He's one of
Speaker 1: my closest friends, and he happens to be the goat.
Speaker 1: That's it. Why why, why why are you talking about
Speaker 1: because that's my nigga. The way that he brought that
Speaker 1: um closer around, like the way he made that food
Speaker 1: circle that but yeah, here's this one was frustrating to
Speaker 1: me about the whole thing is that, as a good
Speaker 1: friend of mine lesbian married to another woman, I was
Speaker 1: performance said I thought that was no, it was where Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you used to be able to say that, no,
Speaker 1: big deal and say they come out like unless you
Speaker 1: say something derogatory toward Jewish people, you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: oh crazy. But when we were, um, we were showing
Speaker 1: awesome and when my friends heard her wife was there
Speaker 1: and at the end up, I said, um, how do
Speaker 1: you like the show? She was like, well, I I
Speaker 1: liked it, but we left early. I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: she said, because blah blah blah blah, she walked out
Speaker 1: on Dave. And when she said that, I said to myself,
Speaker 1: I know exactly the moment she walked out. Yeah, it
Speaker 1: was a trigger Like you got people people just like
Speaker 1: most of the people to walk out over the show.
Speaker 1: They came to walk out. They're just waiting for the
Speaker 1: trigger word. And it was I know when she walked
Speaker 1: out was at the beginning of setting up the story
Speaker 1: about Day's transgender friend, right. I was like, that's something
Speaker 1: fair else I knew when she walked out and said,
Speaker 1: but she didn't even give the shot because, like you said,
Speaker 1: if you go three sixty on how it turned out
Speaker 1: in the explanation and like they're trying to drag Dave
Speaker 1: talking about oh he's transferred, just heard they heard the
Speaker 1: trigger word. And walked the stud I was like, if
Speaker 1: you realize what was important with his relationship with the
Speaker 1: transgender is not who the transgender identified as or anything.
Speaker 1: It was like, how we respect each other as a
Speaker 1: comic and a person. You know what I'm saying. When
Speaker 1: the Daphne said, Dave's like, I'm trying to understand your dad,
Speaker 1: And then he said that was like this, I don't
Speaker 1: need you to understand me. I need you to know
Speaker 1: that I'm having a human experience. Any motherfucker's any motherfucker
Speaker 1: they want to talk to you about the closer, just
Speaker 1: rewind that part. How do you call somebody transfer? But
Speaker 1: without bringing up that whole story when you're experiencing cognitive dissonance,
Speaker 1: you know when when when you're that that person you
Speaker 1: know who, here's what you want to here, and once
Speaker 1: you hear what you want to hear the other stuff,
Speaker 1: don't the other thing. That was fantastic about that man.
Speaker 1: He was like, man, I don't. I'm not man, I
Speaker 1: just want to know how you did it. Y'all came,
Speaker 1: y'all got that quick. We're still trying to figure it out. YEA,
Speaker 1: I told I said, Damn, I had this joke and
Speaker 1: I know that part and I've done it. While I said,
Speaker 1: you know, I understand, I said, uh, the LBG. They
Speaker 1: said they want to ban the F word, right. They
Speaker 1: don't want you to say fact right. He says, politically
Speaker 1: and correct is social responsible. It's a disgusting work. And
Speaker 1: I agree with you. I think it is a disgusting work.
Speaker 1: But when you banned words, you can't just cut in
Speaker 1: line of all other words need to be banned first.
Speaker 1: You can't just jump in front of nigger like that, right.
Speaker 1: You can't nigguse me chick, okay, nigger had all we're
Speaker 1: in the front, I said, if I was not a lie,
Speaker 1: but like your fat get behind these niggers. We've been
Speaker 1: waiting for four hundred years. And stopped looking at my
Speaker 1: ass like Joe, it's a motherfucker joke, and it's funny.
Speaker 1: You know, my face is funny, man, Stop punching down
Speaker 1: on my people. That there's another thing people try to
Speaker 1: you know, when he said, people try to like damn
Speaker 1: like judge beautiful man, it wasn't the funniest, but I'm like,
Speaker 1: this dude been funny so long that people would pay
Speaker 1: just to hear him talk. It was what I'm saying
Speaker 1: was when people like look at like like okay, it
Speaker 1: was like whatever. But like I've seen his growth, and
Speaker 1: every time we do a special, it's deeper, it's a lesson,
Speaker 1: it's the time capsule. It's like when he's long gone,
Speaker 1: wait from here, you can you'll know exactly what was
Speaker 1: going in the world just by dropping one of them.
Speaker 1: I've never seen anybody that can create flip material as life,
Speaker 1: like when we're talking about with that stuff, that quick
Speaker 1: man and that good you know, I think he did
Speaker 1: three specials in like one year or something. Man, that's
Speaker 1: not heard. But when you have your voice, when you
Speaker 1: have your voice and you have your point of view,
Speaker 1: all you need the subject matter, all you need to
Speaker 1: be in a moment just to be able to talk
Speaker 1: about something. And that's what make it though. And people
Speaker 1: always I'll go, I think I'm a great comic. It's
Speaker 1: hard for us. I think it's hard for us to
Speaker 1: put out ego aside. If you when you you know,
Speaker 1: just petty motherfucker's when somebody says somebody's great, the like.
Speaker 1: But I questioned myself. I was like, I asked myself,
Speaker 1: what makes this mother great? Right? And I attribute to
Speaker 1: our call the Muhammad Ali moment. You got some people
Speaker 1: that could probably get you the laugh harder than Dave whatever.
Speaker 1: But it's not too often that you have a Muhammed
Speaker 1: Ali moment where the decision you make it's going to
Speaker 1: uh change your life, could change your life. Muhammad Ali like,
Speaker 1: I'm not fighting, you know what I'm saying, And I
Speaker 1: was like, that's what separates and that's to me, what
Speaker 1: makes a great person a great comment? What is your
Speaker 1: contribution to the world. What do you think about Cat
Speaker 1: Williams's statement saying that Eddie Murphy can't be your favorite
Speaker 1: comedian because he hasn't put out any material over twenty years.
Speaker 1: He hasn't done sstand up. I mean, first off, it's
Speaker 1: a crazy statement to tell somebody who can't be your
Speaker 1: favorite comedian because it's all subjective. It's all subjective, and
Speaker 1: it's like, what you like, you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't he what he what he was
Speaker 1: saying that he was going by catalog he's saying, you know,
Speaker 1: stand up wise, you know, stand up wise. You know
Speaker 1: Eddie was great in in in the in the eighties
Speaker 1: or whatever, but you know, maybe early nineties or whatever.
Speaker 1: But he's saying stand up performance by stand up performance.
Speaker 1: He don't even consider Eddie Murphy because he don't have
Speaker 1: the catalog. But I say to that personally, is that
Speaker 1: But if if you were to believe what Cat is saying,
Speaker 1: then you have to strike off Biggie Smalls off your
Speaker 1: favorite rapper list because he still because Biggie don't have
Speaker 1: the catalog at all, you don't even have remotely had
Speaker 1: to if you're going to buy a catalog, Biggie name
Speaker 1: will never be mentioned as somebody's favorite rap. I think
Speaker 1: in that case, he probably was speaking to his fans,
Speaker 1: you know, the people that ride with him. I think
Speaker 1: that that's that's a And I got a lot of
Speaker 1: respect for Cat Williams. A lot of respect for Cat Williams.
Speaker 1: I really respect the guys in this business that don't
Speaker 1: have to be on TV every day, don't have to
Speaker 1: be in everybody's movie, that created a fan base, a
Speaker 1: loyal people that will support them forever, like Cat Williams.
Speaker 1: And that's what stand on something and stand on something,
Speaker 1: and that's what he empowers himself. And he put it
Speaker 1: back to where the most important people and that's what
Speaker 1: people just buying the tickets, you know. And Kat Whims said,
Speaker 1: people talk about him whatever, But man, anybody to be
Speaker 1: able to be in this business for thirty years and
Speaker 1: be able to steal go out there and make an
Speaker 1: honest living. People like Danielle, what is your goal? Is
Speaker 1: a comic. I don't have to be in the blockbuster.
Speaker 1: I mean, I got a dope as resume. I don't
Speaker 1: have to do that ship, right. I don't eat off
Speaker 1: of that ship, you know, the actor ship that comes
Speaker 1: every once in a while. But I can't. I say,
Speaker 1: but the only thing I don't want to do was
Speaker 1: have my name strong enough where if you put my
Speaker 1: name on the marquee, I can eat and I'm winning.
Speaker 1: Anything else is a is a bonus. I mentor a
Speaker 1: comic friend of mine name just June, Old school female community.
Speaker 1: She was like, Danielle, what is your this? When I
Speaker 1: was super young in the game, she said, what is
Speaker 1: your what is what do you want? What is the
Speaker 1: ultimate level of success? And I started She said happiness
Speaker 1: and everything I said, you know I did with any younger.
Speaker 1: I was like having my own sitcom, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Having that this? She was like, we are
Speaker 1: living a dream. We're already living a dream to be
Speaker 1: able to provide for yourself and your family through God
Speaker 1: given talent that you love doing. That's the win. But
Speaker 1: we get caught up. You start trying to get people.
Speaker 1: This person, got that person, this, this person got that whatever.
Speaker 1: But what gives you your happiness the fact that my
Speaker 1: fucker's getting mad. When you said, when I first came today,
Speaker 1: you said, how you doing, I said, Billy, I'm doing
Speaker 1: so good. I'm embarrassed even shared with people right because
Speaker 1: nobody want to root for you. You greet the mother
Speaker 1: hood first. It's how you're doing. Oh man, I ain't
Speaker 1: doing nothing. I had your hand, I throw mine in.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. We live of that, But
Speaker 1: once we found out what it is, what true happiness is.
Speaker 1: You are living a rich life, and the life richness
Speaker 1: of it is your mindset pandemic. Lash here. If you
Speaker 1: went through that pandemic and you didn't realize what's really
Speaker 1: important in life, you'll never get it. And what is
Speaker 1: true happiness for me? Simple ship, Being able to provide
Speaker 1: for my family, having a relationship with my son, having
Speaker 1: a relationship with my friends, being around uh, like minded people.
Speaker 1: You know, what I'm saying being around positive energy and
Speaker 1: as you go through and this because you know we
Speaker 1: go through ship people we funk, but we don't funk
Speaker 1: with you. Know you'll get there. You remember when you
Speaker 1: first started. I had a guy hit me up a
Speaker 1: couple weeks ago. Yo, d or you act like you
Speaker 1: don't funk with me no more. I want to say,
Speaker 1: I don't h right, but the name because I don't
Speaker 1: funk with you. It's because we don't think a lot
Speaker 1: anymore like a lot. And I had the terns like, yeah,
Speaker 1: but I remember you used to you used to look
Speaker 1: out for me blah blah blah. Because I this one
Speaker 1: guy in particularly put them on Chappelle show. I got
Speaker 1: a morning it was I used to do. I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we used to. We used to do that. I think
Speaker 1: you think you think jay Z is still friends with
Speaker 1: everybody started with motherfucker's started. It ain't no bad way,
Speaker 1: it ain't no disrespect. It's like, all right, um, when
Speaker 1: I see you, I see you. But if I'm making
Speaker 1: a conscious effort to call you on birthdays and all
Speaker 1: that type of ship. No, but we can still have
Speaker 1: a mutual respect. We just understand that we're on different
Speaker 1: we were living different lives now. If you want to
Speaker 1: imagine Johnson said this, if you want to bring your
Speaker 1: conversation up, if you want to level up with me,
Speaker 1: let's go. But I'm gonna get bored with the ship
Speaker 1: you're talking about. I feel that, man, because you know
Speaker 1: I love my family to death. Man. But there's some
Speaker 1: of them. Uh. If I know they're at the gathering,
Speaker 1: I'm not going because and it depends on what day
Speaker 1: it is, too and how I'm feeling. I have to
Speaker 1: be up to it to go because I just feel
Speaker 1: like being around them that I'm stunting my growth. It's like,
Speaker 1: I want to grow. I want to move forward, not backwards,
Speaker 1: and I want to around the same people, and I
Speaker 1: just feel like, I just feel like some of my
Speaker 1: people are stuck and right. I want to be around
Speaker 1: like minded individuals, people that can help me grow, people,
Speaker 1: people who can contribute to that growth. People don't want
Speaker 1: What you want to do is like people get so
Speaker 1: happy with where we are right now. Right Nobody wants
Speaker 1: to start at the bottom of anything. Even when I
Speaker 1: was doing County for six months, i lit d c up.
Speaker 1: It was nothing else I could do with be a
Speaker 1: hometown hero, right. I was like, I'm at the top
Speaker 1: of the game. I could have got so much pussy whatever,
Speaker 1: like yo, he's something funny high. But I was like, no,
Speaker 1: it's time for the next level. I gotta go to
Speaker 1: the bottom of the next level, work my way up.
Speaker 1: And it's always searching for that. And that comes with
Speaker 1: getting older and wisdom. You notice it's so easy to
Speaker 1: have a good day now, only you, unless it's some
Speaker 1: medical ship or health ship. Only you. You control your
Speaker 1: day when you wake up. You choose how you want
Speaker 1: to live that day. You want to be pissed in
Speaker 1: the world or you want to be happy. You want
Speaker 1: to call the motherfucker that's bitch, you know you want
Speaker 1: to call him motherfucker. Got some ideas what you want
Speaker 1: to do? And then what do you in this game?
Speaker 1: What do you bring to the table and are you
Speaker 1: wanting to work for it? I remember years ago when
Speaker 1: Chappelle's show was popping and everybody's like, asked you Larry this,
Speaker 1: ask you Larry this? And that. I was in the
Speaker 1: airport and Ludicrous. I saw Ludicrous in the airport, and
Speaker 1: I still get kind of freaked out when I see
Speaker 1: some of these people that I admired and I look
Speaker 1: at a certain level like connecting me like oh ship,
Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh ship. They're like oh ship. Right.
Speaker 1: So I saw Ludicros and I said, I said, what's up, Nigga?
Speaker 1: I said, I said can? I said, can the motherucker
Speaker 1: getting a video or something? And he looked at me.
Speaker 1: He said, we're looking for people with ideas. Guess what
Speaker 1: you have? Idea? But I wanted to hand out. I
Speaker 1: was like, he said, we look at people ideas. I
Speaker 1: was like, all right, I'll talk to you later. There's
Speaker 1: no don't talk about But it was a lesson for me, like,
Speaker 1: don't ask somebody for something. If you can't bring nothing
Speaker 1: to the table, why what I need to just put
Speaker 1: you in the video? Because you asked me, Larry. I
Speaker 1: think I grew up with asking people. And it made
Speaker 1: me think when if I if I ever extend myself
Speaker 1: to anybody, I'm gonna have what. Okay, I got this,
Speaker 1: I got this, I got this idea. Let's go and
Speaker 1: if that don't work, I'll keep it moving. Yeah, where
Speaker 1: they put you in the new movie coming out of
Speaker 1: Winning Time talk about that? You know this? I was
Speaker 1: telling you I was like, you see how you doing.
Speaker 1: I was like, yo, I'm like, it is on fire
Speaker 1: right now. Who are you playing? James Worthy? I played Uh?
Speaker 1: I played magic ill attempt of being funny. Really I
Speaker 1: hit it with up but they're winning. Going back to it,
Speaker 1: the reason why I feel so blessed. I feel like, uh,
Speaker 1: everything I've been working for it started to come together
Speaker 1: since the pandemic. I did UM, I voiced des del
Speaker 1: Barbera and Disney Pixar's movie Um Soul, which want to
Speaker 1: ask her. I had a couple of cameo episodes on
Speaker 1: BT's twenty I did be a mephis which is like
Speaker 1: an underground like street hip. Nobody want to see that man.
Speaker 1: You played her, You played you played a creepy more attician,
Speaker 1: and some people said that was my life, said that
Speaker 1: was my life. It was a freak. That was another example.
Speaker 1: And I was so lucky with that because Tasha Smith,
Speaker 1: who directed Like the she directed the the pilot and
Speaker 1: like maybe four or five episodes. She called it. This
Speaker 1: has been the story of my life and acting. For
Speaker 1: the most part, I don't book stuff of an auditionous
Speaker 1: people that said, yo, I want him, I want to
Speaker 1: work with and she called me with that, she said, mother,
Speaker 1: and I got a miscall from it, right, and did
Speaker 1: she she go hard? Tasha goes, she said. When I
Speaker 1: found she said, nigger, when I call you, answer the
Speaker 1: motherfucker phone because know certain people they call you know
Speaker 1: it's some good ship, right, And um, she put me on.
Speaker 1: She put me and being meth is that role. And
Speaker 1: it was hopefully like it's got a new season. I
Speaker 1: heard some talk that they're gonna probably try to stretch
Speaker 1: their character out and do more. So it's could just
Speaker 1: be another opportunity for me to play Make Believe. But
Speaker 1: to winning team HBO project, it's uh, it's a story
Speaker 1: about Magic Johnson and the in the eighties and how
Speaker 1: fucking epic the run was. And I played his father's
Speaker 1: um good friend that works to the plant with him
Speaker 1: myself and earthquakes and the two man Earthquaker works and
Speaker 1: again we like good friends. All we do is funk
Speaker 1: with each other. But it's a it's a nothing for me.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be good, it's gonna be dope. I've been
Speaker 1: good in some I just feel like, you know, you've
Speaker 1: been doing something for a long time and then you
Speaker 1: people around you start getting excited and they think everything
Speaker 1: is a surprise, like, oh man, what happened? I can't
Speaker 1: believe Yes, I believe it. This twenty seven years, just
Speaker 1: seven years of NonStop when it's always something new coming out.
Speaker 1: You know where we are older guys. You know, this
Speaker 1: is where I can't stand with these mothers and be
Speaker 1: like relevant? Are you relevant? Motherfucker? I'm Dannielle Rawlins. You
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'm who I am. I don't
Speaker 1: have to be the hottest motherfucker. I was like, you
Speaker 1: want to talk about relevance, try doing something for thirty
Speaker 1: years and still being able to maintain a lifestyle doing it,
Speaker 1: And motherfucker's you you motherfucker. When we're talking about yesterday,
Speaker 1: I said the dompest thing I like about the podcast
Speaker 1: the podcast world, it's so unfortunately hip hop because we
Speaker 1: don't want our legends to get older. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, We don't want them to grow. You know,
Speaker 1: like you got those rock bands and ship you see
Speaker 1: these motherfucker's when they barely had no hair to gray
Speaker 1: and they support them the hip hop they don't do that,
Speaker 1: and and yeah, they we have a wheel chair and
Speaker 1: everything but in hip hop it's like, uh, yeah that
Speaker 1: Prince was hot then whatever. But and I was telling
Speaker 1: yesterday in your case, I was like, this is such
Speaker 1: a great platform for you because you are you a legend,
Speaker 1: You guys a legend. You have stories. You have stories
Speaker 1: that can't just die with you, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: And this platform gives opportunity for to see you know

Speaker 1: I love when I see my fucker's I grew up
Speaker 1: whatever like this, all right, mother fucking yes. We can

Speaker 1: an abortion baby. You never made it. Damn heavy? Yeah
Speaker 1: you know that's heavy, heavy, heavy, that's my drop. I've
Speaker 1: talked to my fame. I want the dope because when

Speaker 1: the bank and cash it. I'm not impressed with your
Speaker 1: big house and fancy with If you can't pay cash,
Speaker 1: you can't afford the ship. What they say say less
