141
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 2: except that guy didn't laugh. Yeah, and then he threw

142
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 2: a bottle at me. Oh my god, I love that

143
00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: you didn't lead with this story. He threw a bottle

144
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,720
Speaker 2: at me, like a Corona bottle. And then and then

145
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 2: now he missed me. And then I said, at least

146
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 2: it was a Mexican beer, y, but just take any matter.

147
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,319

148
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,080
Speaker 2: at him, not the joke, and they're laughing at the

149
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,280

Speaker 2: they kick him out of the show, and I don't

151
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,400
Speaker 2: know where he went. The show continued, I guess, so

00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: now I'm bombing tension. You continued your set after the bottle,

153
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:12,240

Speaker 2: You need to get back to the LA or whatever

261
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: to Tacoma. So that's how they left me with, like

262
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:35,000
Speaker 2: you figured out yourself basically, So I just took I

265
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:45,000
Speaker 2: two hundred to get that flight, the later flight, so

266
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 2: you made zero. Yeah, So I took a two hundred

267
00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 2: dollars they gave me, or they're gonna give me the

268
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 2: five hundred Tacoma to lay right. So I waited in

269
00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:57,160
Speaker 2: LA for an hour and for like nine eight hours

270
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: for the next flight to Tacoma. I took a another

272
00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,920
Speaker 2: for that flight to get to Takoma. So when I

273
00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 2: get to Tacoma, they picked me up at the airport.

274
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 2: This black dude who looked like a tiger woods. Really

275
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 2: nice guy. But I couldn't even find him. First of all,

276
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 2: my first time in Hawaii, I thought it was gonna

277
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 2: be like, you know, like the like in a movie,

278
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 2: they gave you a lay back. Then it was just

279
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,960
Speaker 2: some brother from Memphis. He was smoking a Newport in

280
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,880
Speaker 2: the airport, bro like, he didn't give a fuck. You're

281
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:33,479
Speaker 2: my man, use a comedian they called Forelipe. I said, yeah,

282
00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 2: and he's him, and I took off. Nice guy. I

283
00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,720
Speaker 2: think it was a pimp because he kept talking about

284
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: how that pitch maybe made me no money. That bitch

285
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 2: coped me a airplight, take you a bus trip, bade

286
00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 2: me no money. He just kept saying that over and

287
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:52,280
Speaker 2: over on the phone with somebody, pitch made me no money.

288
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 2: He took me to go eat right away, immediately took

289
00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 2: me to eat at a restaurant, and then he was

290
00:16:57,880 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 2: like my escort. She would have drove me to the airport.

291
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 2: But so when I get to Tacoma, I get picked

292
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 2: up by another handler, another guy, and he takes me

293
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,680
Speaker 2: to the promoters guy's house and his mom is like

294
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,960
