One thing I found really amazing 40 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: when I looked on your Instagram. Underneath your picture it 41 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: says old Soul, young Heart, and it seems like these 42 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: are the characters that you play as well, but it 43 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: definitely describes you, at least what I've seen of you 44 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,920 Speaker 1: in movies and welcome. 45 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 2: Thank you, old soul, young heart. I hope I can 46 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 2: continue to ride that wave, and because one day I'm 47 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: going to be old soul, old heart. So you know 48 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 2: I'm right now that I have my young heart, I'm 49 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: doing everything I can to like get up on stage 50 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,959 Speaker 2: and enjoy life and just pour a lot of energy 51 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: into everything I love to do. 52 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,080 Speaker 1: It would be better than old soul, old fart, old 53 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: far to get into that later, all right. So you 54 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 1: grew up in la which for most people that backdrop 55 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:15,120 Speaker 1: is like dreams, but you it was just home. That's 56 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: where you were born and raised. How did growing up 57 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 1: in that environment really shape you and who you are 58 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 1: and eventually what made you funny? 59 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 2: It's so interesting. I feel like I talked to so 60 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 2: many people in my business, other actors when I'm on set, 61 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,920 Speaker 2: and it feels like such a brave thing to do, 62 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 2: because it is when they leave home and they go 63 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 2: to Los Angeles to pursue their career or even like 64 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: becoming an actor feels like very rebellious to them. It 65 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 2: feels like something that goes against the grain. I was 66 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: fortunate enough to grow up in Los Angeles, and you know, 67 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 2: my upbringing was spent in a community theater because my 68 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,680 Speaker 2: mom was so attached to the community theater. So I 69 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 2: was like doing homework in the green room as a kid. Naturally, 70 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 2: just like independent filmmakers at the time were kind of 71 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 2: like cross pollinating, and that's what I say with the theater. 72 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 2: So they'd like come by and be like, hey, can 73 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 2: we use your son for this short? And my mom 74 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 2: was like, I don't know, ask him, and they'd ask 75 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: me and I was like, yeah, I want to do that. 76 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: So it was always around. It always felt like something 77 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 2: so natural, was it. It's not. I can't say I 78 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,919 Speaker 2: was like brave and going and chasing that or I 79 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 2: was doing anything rebellious. But growing up in Los Angeles, 80 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,160 Speaker 2: I was exposed to a lot of art, and then 81 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: growing up in the theater, it was like times ten right. 82 00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 2: I was watching every show, every rehearsal that my mom 83 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 2: was a part of, so that was that was life 84 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 2: as far as like stand up goes. That came a 85 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:39,160 Speaker 2: little later. 86 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to talk to you about that because 87 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: you were working alongside you were on was It? Mister Iglesias? 88 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: And you were on the set alongside Gabriel and and 89 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: there was like a spark. Was this back in twenty 90 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: twenty one? 91 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: Well, like so one of my first times kind of 92 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 2: experiencing stand up I remember I was like seven or 93 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: eight years old and I was in a hotel room 94 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: in San Diego. I was looking for cartoons and I 95 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: happened to come up on Comedy Central and I saw 96 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 2: this man just doing all these voices and impressions. He 97 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: was so funny, So it just held my attention. I 98 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: ended up watching the entire special, which was Gabe's Special, 99 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 2: and I just thought it was amazing that someone could 100 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: show up and just speak and everything that was flying 101 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 2: out of their mouth was super funny. I didn't know 102 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 2: what it meant to prep set or like to work 103 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 2: on jokes or just none of that. I just thought 104 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,359 Speaker 2: it was a gift that you had to have. And 105 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 2: I was like, that's amazing, But I can't do that. Obviously, 106 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 2: I'm not making people laugh like that in everyday conversations 107 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 2: like Gabriel set and just the callbacks right the like 108 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 2: just closing a story so perfectly like Gabe does. I 109 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: just thought it was it was magic, you know what 110 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 2: I mean. And years later I'm working on mystery Gless. Yes, 111 00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 2: I'm at one of Gabe's parties. I was like, Gabe, 112 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 2: I saw you doing the Brea improv. I would love 113 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:59,120 Speaker 2: to be there. He's like, dude, I'll send you tickets. 114 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, yes. He's like, actually, no, I 115 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 2: want you to open up for me. I was like, uh, 116 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,839 Speaker 2: nah'm i and he told me open up. It was 117 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 2: a guest spot. I feel like now I've learned to 118 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 2: know the difference. But to me, it was just being 119 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,159 Speaker 2: on a lineup with Gabe at one of Gabe's shows 120 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: and mane, He's so nervous. I was like, Gabe, I 121 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: don't do stand up. I've never done an open mic. 122 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 2: I've never like tried to actually work material out or 123 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 2: come up with jokes. He's like, it was so many 124 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 2: other comics around. My mom was around, which was a 125 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 2: big one. She's like, no, you're gonna get up, get 126 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,160 Speaker 2: up there, just do it. I was like, you know what, 127 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 2: it scares me a little bit, so yeah, I'm gonna 128 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go ahead and give this a shot. He 129 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,679 Speaker 2: was like, you have two weeks, come up with five minutes. 130 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,599 Speaker 2: I'll see you there. Coming up with the material I 131 00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 2: found within those two weeks was like the easy part, 132 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 2: coming up with like a confidence and how it was 133 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 2: going to get up on stage and like doing it. 134 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 2: Because this was during the pandemic, so access to open 135 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 2: mics wasn't like a thing. I couldn't really run any 136 00:06:56,480 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 2: of this material. I was so nervous today. I got 137 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 2: there like my heart was bounding. I felt like I 138 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 2: was like losing my sight because oh my god, that 139 00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 2: was the first time I got up on stage and 140 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 2: I went into my first joke, I went into my 141 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: second joke, and my second joke allotted me like it 142 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 2: because it got a lot of laughter and a lot 143 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 2: of me enough time to like really feel like I 144 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 2: was present and I felt like my feet touched the 145 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,520 Speaker 2: floor that day and I was like, Okay, I'm here, 146 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: I'm president. I can do this, and then you know, 147 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,360 Speaker 2: I I was just kind of flowing and I felt 148 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 2: like I was I just felt like the audience laughing 149 00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 2: at my setups and stuff, and I just felt really confident. 150 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 2: I walked off that stage a different person. 151 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: Wow. I mean it would be the exact opposite for me. 152 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: I would be so scared to try to come up 153 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:51,400 Speaker 1: with something to write. I had no problem getting on stage, 154 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:53,800 Speaker 1: but it was it was writing and coming up with 155 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: something that you think would resonate with the audience. 156 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 2: No, I just feel like it was something there that 157 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,040 Speaker 2: was that I don't know. It was like in my blindside, 158 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 2: like I didn't know it was there and just gave 159 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,320 Speaker 2: kind of just nudged me into that direction. And it 160 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: was like, whoa, I actually have a huge love for this, 161 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 2: And it just felt like I was in an alignment 162 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: with some sort of purpose. Like I respected the art 163 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 2: form so much, and I guess I just never tried 164 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: it because I respected it so much. And then I 165 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 2: gave it a shot and I was like, whoa, this 166 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 2: is actually, this is actually something I can do. And 167 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 2: you know, I'm still learning.

Wow. 170 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: To watch you though on screen, you look like you've 171 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: been doing it your whole life, which you kind of 172 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: technically have. And by the way, one of my favorite 173 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: genres is horror comedy, and you were in Black as Night. 174 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: That's comedy and horror mix. So yeah, so you did 175 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: sort of dabble a little bit, although the horror sort 176 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: of trump's the comedy in a movie like that. But 177 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: I'm a sucker for a great horror comedy, so I 178 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: love that. 179 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,760 Speaker 2: It was a fun shoot. That was a fun shoot too. 180 00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 2: I got to be out in New Orleans and like, 181 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 2: New Orleans is a lovely city, and like it was 182 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 2: a vampire genre thing, so you know, as New Orleans 183 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: has a bunch of like vampire kind of lore. Even 184 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: eventually I'll start talking about my time in New Orleans, 185 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 2: like on my in my comedy when I get there, 186 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: because so many good stuff. I mean, it's it's a 187 00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 2: lot of funny stuff in New Orleans. 188 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: Do you when you're thinking about comedy now, because you're 189 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 1: doing it all the time, what's your way of writing? 190 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: I mean, you just said you're going to talk about 191 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: it at some point, So are you rolling through your 192 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: life sort of in order as you're doing this? 193 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 2: Not intentionally, but like I feel like I just have 194 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 2: so much to catch up on because I feel like 195 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 2: I got to stand up kind of late, so naturally, 196 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 2: you know, it's my first. It's kind of like I'm 197 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 2: introducing myself as a stand up and with that comes like, hey, 198 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 2: get to know me, you know, get to know me first. 199 00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 2: So it is I'm starting from like point A. I 200 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 2: talk about the way I was raised with my grandmother, 201 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:06,520 Speaker 2: my upbringing in Los Angeles, just a lot of cultural 202 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 2: things that are of importance to me. And it's like, 203 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 2: slowly but surely, I'm making my way into like present 204 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,960 Speaker 2: times and my point of view on the world, which 205 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,600 Speaker 2: is like sprinkled in there a little bit. But more 206 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: than anything, it's like, hey, get to know where I'm from, 207 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:20,800 Speaker 2: get to know me and who I am. 208 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,680 Speaker 1: You are an old soul in that way, and it's always, 209 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 1: you know, even on a screen looking at you, there's 210 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: that charisma just jumps off the screen. 211 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: Well thank you. But yeah, like you said, sometimes they 212 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 2: love it, sometimes they don't. 213 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: Acting gives you sort of a character to hide behind 214 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: because you're playing somebody else. But stand up, it's just 215 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: you and a microphone and a room full of strangers. 216 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: What did you discover about yourself when you stepped into 217 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:50,839 Speaker 1: that sort of really vulnerable place for the very first time. 218 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:51,800 Speaker 1: Do you remember that. 219 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 2: I think that's what I loved about it so much. Really, Yeah, 220 00:10:56,600 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: it was like I have something to say. I feel 221 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 2: like many times on set, and that's not to say 222 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,520 Speaker 2: the work the people that I worked with weren't funny 223 00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:08,040 Speaker 2: or anything like that, know, super super funny. I think 224 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 2: they shape me into a lot of the humor that 225 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 2: I have now. But just oftentimes on set, I would 226 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 2: pitch a line and it would work, And now it's 227 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 2: like I'm pitching all my own lines. I'm responsible for 228 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 2: everything I say, you know what I mean. So it 229 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 2: was very I got a lot of satisfaction, Like working 230 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 2: on Uglesias and I would like pitch a line and 231 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: it would make the show, or like any other show 232 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 2: I've worked on, I say something and it makes it, 233 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 2: and it was like one of the best feelings in 234 00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 2: the world. Every episode I did was like super memorable. 235 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 2: When whenever I get a chance to do that, I'm 236 00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 2: like looking out for it and stand up is that 237 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: it's like just I'm completely responsible for everything I say, 238 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:50,080 Speaker 2: and I'm I'm in connection with that vulnerability. I'm not 239 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 2: a character, I'm me. I think I love that part 240 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 2: the most. 241 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: Has comedy gotten you through anything really difficult or hard, 242 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: for example, a personal low point or a time when 243 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: the ability to laugh at life actually saved you a 244 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 1: little bit? 245 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 2: I think it does that every time I perform. I think, 246 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 2: just even recently, sometimes if I stay away from the 247 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 2: stage for too long, I feel like like something isn't right. 248 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:26,000 Speaker 2: I like, right now, I'm in New York. I arrived 249 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 2: to this like new environment. I've been here before, but 250 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 2: never with like my comedy backpack on me, like to 251 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 2: do stand up and you know, I'm working on a 252 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 2: film out here, so it's kept me really busy. And 253 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:40,680 Speaker 2: you know, I'm out here alone and stuff, and comedy 254 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 2: is just that thing where like I can pull up 255 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 2: to an open micro, pull up to a show, and 256 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 2: I have a shared interest with like everybody there. I 257 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 2: get to know other comics, you know, which makes makes 258 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:56,160 Speaker 2: the world feel a lot smaller for me. And but 259 00:12:56,160 --> 00:13:00,439 Speaker 2: but yeah, it is is it's it's really, it's really 260 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 2: a special thing. I think a lot of my humor 261 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 2: even derives from like trauma that I've managed to make funny. 262 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: Do you find that a lot of people you meet 263 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: within the comedy world have a similar story in that 264 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 1: sense of tragedy turning into you gotta laugh, because what's 265 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 1: the alternative kind of mentality? 266 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, I think it's important. Like you said, what 267 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 2: is the what is the alternative? I think it makes 268 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 2: light and you know, you definitely hold space for these 269 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:35,959 Speaker 2: maybe traumatic things and you might be wanting to work 270 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 2: through them or whatnot on your own. That's like another 271 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 2: side up of your personality if you're doing therapy or 272 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 2: anything like that. But I think being able to laugh 273 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 2: at it is important and it's rewarding too, like to 274 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 2: have other people laugh at it, and it's like, well, 275 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: at least we're all getting joy out of this, Like 276 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: I already went through it, you know what I mean? 277 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, totally. And to be able to do comedy about 278 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: yourself and personal things where you can laugh, it's really 279 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: forcing yourself to look inward, which I think a lot 280 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: of us have a hard time doing, would you agree, Yeah, 281 00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 1: a lot of us non comics, is what I mean. 282 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's really easy to just 283 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 2: kind of like abide by and go with the flow 284 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 2: of like how you may be meant to look at 285 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: a situation. Oh, that's sad, So I'm going to be sad. 286 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 2: But you know, if you dig a little deeper, at 287 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 2: least for me, it's like trying to find the honesty 288 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 2: and everything and any joke. It's so strange how what 289 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 2: a unique point of view we might have on certain things, 290 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 2: and then like how how much you share how much 291 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 2: other people can relate to that, Like it's like, oh, 292 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 2: that was terrible, and I didn't say that at the funeral, 293 00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:46,560 Speaker 2: but that's exactly what I was thinking, you know what 294 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 2: I mean. 295 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,920 Speaker 1: Don't you wish you could go back and say it 296 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: and get everyone to live. You would have had everyone 297 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: laughing at the funeral because there's that nervous energy and 298 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: they want someone to pull it out and change the 299 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 1: whole vibe. 300 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: And everybody that everybody wants to get laughs at a funeral. 301 00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 2: I think bombing is where it's at. Bombing at a Funeral's. 302 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: Okay, now that you've brought that up. You've brought me 303 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: to that point in the show where you've been doing 304 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: open mics around the country. As we talked about earlier, 305 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: what is the difference between bombing in front of a 306 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: hometown crowd versus bombing somewhere totally foreign, for example, like 307 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: you're in New York, now this is foreign territory for you. 308 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:29,240 Speaker 2: That's a good question. I think bombing is bombing. I 309 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 2: honestly do feel like if you're not bombing, well, bombing 310 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: can be a strong word because you know, you might 311 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 2: have some jokes that land, but let's say your jokes 312 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 2: aren't landing it is. It is one of those things 313 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 2: where I just feel like if you're if you're a 314 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 2: new comic and you're not bombing, you're not trying hard enough. 315 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: You're not going out of your way to take risk. 316 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: You're not going out of your way to Yeah, it's 317 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 2: mainly just taking risks, like just trying to find your voice, 318 00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 2: trying to find the language of what funny his or 319 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:03,880 Speaker 2: you're funny his. It's actually pretty freeing to bomb. I 320 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 2: know a lot of people won't do comedy because they're 321 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 2: scared of bombing, but once it happens, you're like, it's 322 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:11,080 Speaker 2: not it's not as scary. I remember the first time 323 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 2: I bombed, and it was very freeing. I enjoyed it 324 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 2: a lot. I was like, this is what it was 325 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 2: all about, Like this is nothing. We'll get back up tomorrow. 326 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 1: Wow, it's just so resilient. 327 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 2: Yeah. To answer your question, I you know, it's okay 328 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 2: to bomb outside of town. You know, like maybe no 329 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: one won't know who you are, blah blah blah. But 330 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 2: I I don't. I don't see a difference bombing at 331 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 2: home or bombing bombing away. I think obviously, when I'm 332 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: here in a new place, I want to leave a 333 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 2: good impression.

Everybody's like it's a free for all, 378 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 2: and it's it's just cool to have that amount of 379 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 2: trust with the people you work with. It's just really 380 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: really special experience to go to, like be on set 381 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: with these very very funny people. I get home, I 382 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 2: tell my girlfriend like, hey, this is what Scotty did today, 383 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 2: this is what Drew said today, you know, and I 384 00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: get hurt to laugh. And then like I start writing, 385 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,480 Speaker 2: I go and I hit up a show or hit 386 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: up a mic or something like that, and then I 387 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 2: get to you know, make people laugh. It's like the 388 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 2: best feeling in the world to spend my day like 389 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 2: in front of the camera and then head out at 390 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:35,200 Speaker 2: night and do my thing and then start over again 391 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: in the morning and go to set, and it inspires 392 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: me to continue to write and continue to be funny. 393 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: It's phenomenal. Do you do you ever crack each other 394 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 1: up so much that you can't I mean, how many takes? 395 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 1: What's the longest scene that you had to do over 396 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: again because you would crack each other up? 397 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 2: Ooh. This season we had two big ones. And it 398 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 2: happens when you put all of us in the same 399 00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 2: room together. That's the thing is like off camera we're 400 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,840 Speaker 2: hanging out out together, and now in front of the camera, 401 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:05,119 Speaker 2: and in between takes, you have the entire cast in 402 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 2: one room. So it's just it's very, very funny. You 403 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 2: got to look out for some physicality that comes up 404 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:15,920 Speaker 2: towards the end of our second season. You'll know exactly 405 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 2: what scene I'm talking about. When you get there the 406 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 2: whole family's together, it's just, you know, it's it's kind 407 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 2: of a climax moment. But the thing is, it's like 408 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 2: they take the work very seriously, but they don't take 409 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 2: themselves seriously at all. And that's the best, the best 410 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:31,320 Speaker 2: way to put it. 411 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: I don't know how you get any work done. 412 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 2: The thing is, it's so hard for me. It's so 413 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: hard for me that like when people ask me, like, hey, 414 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,520 Speaker 2: what's something that funny that happened on set? Like, there's 415 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 2: so much I want to say, and then I think 416 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:45,240 Speaker 2: to myself like, ooh, would they be okay with me 417 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 2: saying that? Like, oh, yes, yes, So that's why I 418 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 2: tell you it's that good. That good. You know it's 419 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,640 Speaker 2: good when you can't tell anybody about it. 420 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: Yes, that is so true. But then that's just going 421 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: to make everyone want to watch the show even more 422 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: because if you're as funny on camera as you are 423 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 1: on camera, than this is just gold. And it's produced 424 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: so incredibly. I'm such a geek for stuff like that. 425 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 1: You know, there's there's nothing gratuitous. It's just right into 426 00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 1: the meat of an amazing storyline and amazing talented actors. 427 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: So like yourself, you will be right back with more 428 00:21:20,160 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: of the Comedy Save Meat Podcast. Welcome back to the 429 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:33,200 Speaker 1: Comedy Save Me Podcast. I wonder will this be something 430 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: that you might want to do full time and or 431 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:39,160 Speaker 1: do you always want to stick in both worlds? 432 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 2: I think both worlds. Both worlds, you know they their cousins. Yeah, yeah, 433 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,200 Speaker 2: I'd love doing it all. Yeah, both worlds well. 434 00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: As an actor, you you sort of understand character and 435 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:56,360 Speaker 1: timing and at a very deep level, has there has 436 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: there been has that been an asset to your comedy 437 00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: or does it sometimes get in the way of finding 438 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: sort of your own authentic voice. I suspect I know 439 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,960 Speaker 1: the answer to this question, but I'm curious. 440 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,280 Speaker 2: I think both. I think acting and the skills have 441 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 2: lent themselves to the performance aspect of it all. I think, 442 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 2: I think because my life has been heavily centered around 443 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 2: acting though, and this happens to comics as well. I 444 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 2: was just talking to a friend of mine out here 445 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 2: in New York about this, and it's like, we spend 446 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 2: so much time invested in being a comic and the 447 00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:32,959 Speaker 2: life of a comic, and it's like you get up, 448 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 2: you write, you do comedy, you go to sleep, You 449 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 2: get up, you write, you do comedy, you go to sleep. 450 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,919 Speaker 2: Before you know it, you realize like you kind of 451 00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 2: don't have a life that everyone can relate to, Like 452 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 2: you're just doing this this routine, you know what I mean. 453 00:22:47,960 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 2: And it's like, you know, part of it all is 454 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 2: like living, and the same goes for acting. It's like 455 00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:56,560 Speaker 2: I've been so centered on the like acting part of 456 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 2: it all. It's like, hey, sometimes you need to take 457 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,239 Speaker 2: a step away and like go and live, like go 458 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 2: be a human being. So that that's that's what I 459 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: feel like the strengths and weaknesses are. It's like it's 460 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 2: taught me a lot from a performance aspect, the dedication 461 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,960 Speaker 2: and being there and the work ethic. But like I'm 462 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 2: also like, whoa, I've kind of just been uh in 463 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 2: this zone for so long. I need to I need 464 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: to step out a little bit and make some memories 465 00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:22,000 Speaker 2: and have some more stuff to talk about. 466 00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 1: Wow, and you're and again I just can't believe you're 467 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: at such an early start in your career and you've 468 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 1: already accomplished so much, and your mom must be so proud. 469 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: You're playing Jackie Moreno, that's his character on the show. 470 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 1: We're talking about Running Point, and you're sort of the 471 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 1: baby joker of the crew. How much of you, Fabrizio, 472 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: sneaks into a character like that, and how much of 473 00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 1: playing funny characters feeds your stand up? 474 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 2: I think a lot of me uh goes into Jackie. 475 00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 2: Like I said earlier talking about like the responsibilities of 476 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 2: an actor in the life, that you're so committed to 477 00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 2: as an actor. I think Jackie is like a version 478 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 2: of Parts of Jackie are a version of me that 479 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:07,959 Speaker 2: get to do what Jackie wants to, not what Jackie 480 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,720 Speaker 2: has to. I've been working since a very young age, 481 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:13,840 Speaker 2: you know, this is something I love to do. There's 482 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: a lot of like compromises I make with my time. 483 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 2: Sometimes I want to go have fun and I'm like, no, 484 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 2: you have to be up early the next day. I 485 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 2: think Jackie's like, oh, you have to be up early 486 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:25,560 Speaker 2: the next day. It doesn't matter. I'm still going out, 487 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,879 Speaker 2: you know, which is like what I would want to do, 488 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 2: but like I don't want the consequences of like being 489 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,640 Speaker 2: tired the next day on set, right. 490 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, that happens as we get older. 491 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 2: A lot of it a lot of a lot of 492 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 2: me and a lot of what I know, meaning like 493 00:24:41,119 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 2: the people around me, the neighborhoods I grew up in. 494 00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:46,360 Speaker 2: Like I try to bring all that into Jackie with 495 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 2: so much love, and then on the stand up front, 496 00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 2: it's obviously it's a lot of me. From the performance 497 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 2: aspect of it all, I think like just learning ways 498 00:24:58,119 --> 00:25:02,720 Speaker 2: in which to deliver, in which to I guess it's 499 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 2: just performance. Yeah, certain certain volumes are funnier than other 500 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 2: when you say things, it's comedic timing. I think that's 501 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 2: about as far as it goes. 502 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, what does it mean to you when when you 503 00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 1: make the audience erupt in laughter? What does it feel like? 504 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:20,960 Speaker 2: In a way, it kind of takes me back to 505 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,439 Speaker 2: the first time I got up on stage. It's like 506 00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 2: that same kind of feeling. It brings me so much joy. 507 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: I know I'm taking my time, and it doesn't mean 508 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 2: I don't know. I just think it's just such a 509 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 2: special feeling. There's like, there's really nothing else that I've 510 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 2: experienced like it. It is. I mean, to say the least, 511 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: it's rewarding. I believe that laughter is the soul, like 512 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,199 Speaker 2: you hear the soul, and just like to be in 513 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 2: a room where you just feel like you're more soul 514 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 2: than human is just such a cool feeling. Yeah, I know, 515 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 2: I'm taking my time, like I said, but it's just 516 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,399 Speaker 2: a really really special feeling. I don't know how to 517 00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 2: describe it. 518 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:05,560 Speaker 1: It's uh, it's it's a special thing, and it's it's 519 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 1: like a drug, isn't it almost? 520 00:26:08,119 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, the first day I got up I mean, 521 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 2: like I said, I so nervous. It felt like my 522 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 2: my serotonin no, yeah, serotonin, dopamine was just so like 523 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 2: in the clouds when I when I got off stage, 524 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 2: and then the next day I just remember it was 525 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,959 Speaker 2: this crash and it hasn't happened to me since, but 526 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 2: the first time I think so much was just going 527 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,960 Speaker 2: on internally. The next day, I woke up exhausted and drain. 528 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 2: It was good. 529 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:38,240 Speaker 1: It was a good tired though it was a good 530 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: cras it was good tired. 531 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 2: It was a good tired, but I knew, I knew 532 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 2: I had experienced a lot. 533 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 1: Wow, Variety puts you on their twenty twenty five Young 534 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:52,280 Speaker 1: Hollywood Impact Report. That's a significant moment of recognition. And 535 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: I'm curious what that means to you. And does that 536 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 1: kind of spotlight add pressure or does that sort of 537 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,879 Speaker 1: light that fire under your butt to like keep building 538 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:02,640 Speaker 1: on what you're doing. 539 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:06,560 Speaker 2: I think it's sad. It's just keep building on what 540 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 2: it is that I'm doing. I it's it's an honor, 541 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: but it's also not like it's part. It's part of 542 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 2: what I do, but it's not entirely like the focus 543 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:20,560 Speaker 2: I think in a lot of ways it looks like, 544 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 2: you know, you can see the accolade, but I'm just 545 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 2: like doing what I feel is in alignment with me, 546 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: and if it gets rewarded, like great, that's really cool. 547 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 2: But every day as an artist, I think it's just 548 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:37,199 Speaker 2: trying to get to the most honest place. And you know, 549 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 2: I think when you capture a little bit of honesty, 550 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 2: it gets celebrated, so that's cool. So I just continue 551 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 2: to search for the those nuggets and be in alignment 552 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: with me. 553 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 1: I was telling Katie before you came on to do 554 00:27:50,560 --> 00:27:54,399 Speaker 1: the show with me about how you the way I 555 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,959 Speaker 1: described you and I hadn't even met you yet, was 556 00:27:57,440 --> 00:28:00,320 Speaker 1: I felt like when I was watching your character that 557 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:03,879 Speaker 1: that was really a lot of you for real, And 558 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen a lot of times when you watch 559 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: people on the screen or in the movies. But you 560 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 1: had this quality about you that I think I said 561 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 1: you were huggable, like I wanted to hug you because 562 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: you know, you're just so warm, and that's your character 563 00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:20,080 Speaker 1: as well on the show. So it's I just I 564 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 1: just think that you're amazing. Could you tell I'm like 565 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 1: so fangirling on you this whole time. 566 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 2: I mean, I can't hug you right now, but I'm 567 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 2: sending you a big virtual hug. 568 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: Virtual Fabrizio. If comedy hadn't found you on that set 569 00:28:34,359 --> 00:28:38,480 Speaker 1: of Mister Iglesias, if Fluffy had never inspired the spark 570 00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:43,000 Speaker 1: within you, where do you think Fabrizio Guido is today? 571 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 2: Lovest likely still acting still, yeah, you know, doing what 572 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 2: I'm doing. I think a lot of people have like 573 00:28:49,680 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 2: this thing where they're like, oh, you know, I got 574 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 2: to stand up because a lot of people told me 575 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 2: how I was funny and my friends were like, hey, 576 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 2: you should try to do stand up. Oh whateever told 577 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,080 Speaker 2: me to do stand up except for gay Raw. I 578 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 2: mean I make people laugh here and there, but I 579 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 2: think that I really, like, really make people bust up 580 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 2: if you're very very close to me, if you're like 581 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 2: a very if you're in my immediate circle. Other than that, 582 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 2: I'm pretty reserved. And through stand up, I think I 583 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:25,720 Speaker 2: bring that part like I'm not waiting for an opportunity 584 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: to like talk about myself or whatever. I just that's 585 00:29:30,280 --> 00:29:31,800 Speaker 2: what I do, That's what I'm here to do. So 586 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:34,360 Speaker 2: it feels like an invitation to bring in that piece 587 00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 2: of me that I feel like maybe someone might have 588 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 2: to work to get to I think I'd probably be 589 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 2: very invested in in screenwriting. I think since I found 590 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 2: stand up, my energy for writing has to take in 591 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 2: a detour into writing jokes as opposed to like writing 592 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 2: screenplays or pilots or anything like that. I just love 593 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 2: pouring my energy into that, and I think eventually I 594 00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:00,480 Speaker 2: would have found my way in up comedy. 595 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: I love that you're so You're such a breath of 596 00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: fresh air. Honestly, you know what you want to do 597 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,479 Speaker 1: and you're just taking on life like a bull by 598 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:12,840 Speaker 1: the horns. What do you want people to feel when 599 00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 1: they walk out of a show that they come to 600 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 1: you at a stand up? And what's the thing that 601 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 1: you most want to give to an audience? Obviously, besides laughter. 602 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 2: I would hope that the two drink quinimum was worth it, 603 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 2: you know. I obviously want them to feel like they 604 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 2: know me better than they did before. I want to 605 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 2: develop a relationship with the audience. I want them to 606 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 2: laugh primarily, like, have a good time. Give people their 607 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 2: money's worth, right, Like people work so hard to go 608 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 2: and catch the show and make time and get a 609 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 2: sitter if you have kids. So I just want them 610 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 2: to have such a great night and for it to 611 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: be memorable. I'm putting like my heart and soul and 612 00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 2: again very intimate moments to me that mean a lot 613 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 2: to me into my work. So I just I want 614 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 2: to share the little slice of that and hope people 615 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 2: connect to it. 616 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 1: What would you give for advice too?

I know, I know, I know, 621 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:31,239 Speaker 2: I feel like so many people say that, and I 622 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 2: know it's short, but it is that feeling of like 623 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 2: go make mistakes. The sooner the better, Like the more 624 00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 2: time you put in, the sooner you're over it. Yeah, 625 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,480 Speaker 2: just take advantage of the time that you have your 626 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:51,000 Speaker 2: only new ones, so like just really take advantage of 627 00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: that time that and be nice to yourself. 628 00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: Wow, that's a big one. 629 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, be patient with yourself if you just even if 630 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 2: you've been doing this for a long time. I think 631 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 2: it's very common for us artists to like attack ourselves 632 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 2: when we're not giving what it is that we need 633 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 2: to give or what we expect from each other, and 634 00:32:11,720 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 2: it's like, dude, you should be your best friend. You're 635 00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: your own instrument. Take care of yourself. You don't deserve 636 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 2: that you don't deserve, like talking badly about yourself, or 637 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 2: punishing yourself because you couldn't make something happen, or because 638 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: you bomb one night. Like pay attention to how loyal 639 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: you've been to yourself and go out there and just 640 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 2: be kind. 641 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: That is fantastic advice. And you are an old soul 642 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:41,479 Speaker 1: because most people don't get that type of wisdom until 643 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: way down the line. So it's just so smart of 644 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:47,440 Speaker 1: you to say that, because it's so true. We are 645 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: our own worst critic. I'm sure you've seen it a 646 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:53,160 Speaker 1: lot with people that you hang out with that sometimes 647 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: people get in their own way of success. You can 648 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,200 Speaker 1: see it within them, but they are so mean to 649 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 1: themselves that they don't see it themselves. Yeah, do you 650 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,000 Speaker 1: find that you want to help other people to bring 651 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:08,560 Speaker 1: that out within them? And has that ever happened to 652 00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: you with a friend or anyone in your life. 653 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if I intentionally like seek out to 654 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 2: do that, but I find certain comics with certain people 655 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 2: around me so special. And I've seen myself nervous. I've 656 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 2: seen myself full of doubt.
