1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: Damon, thank you for coming on. You know, we've been

2
00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 1: We've been buddies for a while. I've been fans of

3
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: the family, been supporters of the family for a long time.

4
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: We asked your brother who was.

5
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:10,560
Speaker 2: The funniest which one.

6
00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:16,400
Speaker 1: Marlins? We as him. We had some who was the

7
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,480
Speaker 1: funniest sibling you have? And we want to see if

8
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: the answer is the same. So that's my question, who's

9
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 1: the funniest sibling you have?

10
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 2: The funniest sibling? It rotates, you know, like anybody can

11
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:30,760
Speaker 2: get hot at any time. So you know, it's like

12
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,440
Speaker 2: there's no king. You know, the crown moves around and

13
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 2: you know, one day Marlin's on, one day Sean's on,

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 2: you know, but the good news is the crown stays

15
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:42,240
Speaker 2: in the family.

16
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: M I do like that?

17
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 3: Who did Marlin say again?

18
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: He said, he said yes, Yeah, he said, Damon.

19
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,560
Speaker 2: I'm probably the angriest.

20
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,520
Speaker 3: Question about the Wayne's family because when when we had

21
00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 3: Marlin on Shack was like, man, family reunions and Thanksgiving

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 3: must be hilarious. Were there ever times where somebody brought

23
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 3: a new significant other and they came into this storm

24
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 3: and just got it, whether it was like a boyfriend,

25
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 3: or something like that that tried to come to the

26
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 3: family and bring jokes.

27
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: All the time. It happens all the time. It's just

28
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,759
Speaker 2: you know, my family, it's you know, it's come it's

29
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:27,040
Speaker 2: commando comedy. So if you're gonna come in, you're gonna

30
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 2: get Niche initiated into the family and it's done with comedy.

31
00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:36,639
Speaker 2: It's not mean. But you know, you walk away gun hummm,

32
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 2: Maybe I shouldn't have told that joke.

33
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,520
Speaker 3: That just sounds so intimidating.

34
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 2: It it's beautiful, it's it's it's a lot of laughs.

35
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 2: You know, it's my best time to hanging out with

36
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 2: my family. And was there a was.

37
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,040
Speaker 3: There a moment where you remembered someone got it the most?

38
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 2: Uh, well, don't get it. You know. I used to

39
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,680
Speaker 2: date this woman that used to date my nephew and

40
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: I made a mistake of showing up with her on

41
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,520
Speaker 2: my arm and they roasted me.

42
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: You know it.

43
00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: Well, I was in love, but you know, but my

44
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:33,799
Speaker 2: nephew was in love first. So, speaking of speaking of

45
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 2: family business, which one of your kids is most like you?

46
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: My son, Michael, my son is uh, you know, he's

47
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 2: he's uh, he's an angry artist. You know, and he's

48
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 2: but he's brilliant, you know, and he's you know. I

49
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 2: used to tell him because he was mad at me,

50
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: and we we just started like really getting along because

51
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 2: he stopped asking me for money. Uh but we we

52
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 2: we but heads And I said, you don't like me,

53
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 2: but you need to love me because I'm you in

54
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:07,960
Speaker 2: the future.

55
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 1: Mmmm.

56
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 2: Get to know.

57
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: Say that again.

58
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 2: It said, you may not like me, but you gotta

59
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 2: love me because I'm you in the future.

60
00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:24,960
Speaker 1: I'm definitely using that. I'm sitting out. I'm sending that

61
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 1: out to my boys as soon as I get off

62
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: the podcast.

63
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's it's hard, you know. Being a parent

64
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 2: is wonderful, but it's a thankless job, you know. And

65
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 2: it's not until they get older and then they start

66
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: checking on you. That's the way that there's nothing my

67
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 2: kids can give me except love, you know, and it's

68
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: like if they you know, I recently lost my favorite

69
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,120
Speaker 2: aunt two weeks ago, and it's just been, you know,

70
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,600
Speaker 2: devastating because it's like losing my mom all over again.

71
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: And my kids checking on me, and that really, you know,

72
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 2: boost my spirits, you know, and I'm grateful for that

73
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: because it's hard. It's life is hard enough, but it's

74
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 2: really hard when you got to do it alone. When

75
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 2: you feel like nicely, well, thank you, it's you know.

76
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 2: It's the thing is if you if you live a

77
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 2: long enough life, you bury a lot of people you love.

78
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,159
Speaker 2: So that's that's the reality.

79
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 1: So on your new TV show Popa's House, you work

80
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 1: with your son Damon Jr. How close are those characters

81
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: to real life relationships? And did you make him work

82
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,479
Speaker 1: for it before he's before you said, you know what,

83
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: now it's time for us to work together because he's

84
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 1: really good. He's really good.

85
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,679
Speaker 2: Well, thank you. I'm very proud of him. He actually

86
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 2: made me work to get him the show because I

87
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 2: had an idea to do the show ten years ago.

88
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,720
Speaker 2: The different slightly different but him father and son, and

89
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 2: he's like, nah, I'm not ready. I actually wrote a sketch,

90
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 2: I mean a script, and I sent it to him

91
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: and he was like yeah. And then he talked to

92
00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 2: his people and they was like, yo, Pops, it's not

93
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: a good time. I was like, what he said, my people,

94
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm your people. He started in my sack,

95
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 2: but you talk about your people. But he wanted to

96
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,720
Speaker 2: he wanted to do it on his own, you know,

97
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 2: and I had to respect that. I'm like, all right,

98
00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 2: go ahead, and you know, he built a little resume

99
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,479
Speaker 2: and to the point where, you know, I kind of

100
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,680
Speaker 2: set back and just let him go because it was

101
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 2: you know, when I was out there trying to get

102
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: my career, keep my career going, and he was trying

103
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: to get his career going. It was hard because I

104
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: would actually he would go at the meetings and they

105
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 2: thought he was me wow, and he was like, Yo,

106
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 2: this is awkward. So I kind of just set back.

107
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 2: I ain't you know. I just let him get his

108
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 2: his thing. And then I was like, all right, I'm

109
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 2: ready to go back to work, and he's just like,

110
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 2: it's not the time. So when you know this came along,

111
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 2: I actually went out and sold the show without him

112
00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: first to like I had a bidding war for it,

113
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 2: and then I was like, look, they want this, it's

114
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 2: it's it's is this is low hanging fruit. Come on

115
00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 2: and do this. He was like yeah, okay. And the

116
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: funny thing is just how guy worked. The day that

117
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: I asked him to do this show, his show, he

118
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 2: had a show on TBS. They canceled it. He was

119
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,599
Speaker 2: supposed to fly out the next week to do this show,

120
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: and that's why I called him because I knew it should.

121
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, one thing that you said earlier, because I never

122
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,840
Speaker 4: took you as somebody that had anger, like just it's

123
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 4: always joy and being around Shack, I've noticed sometimes that

124
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 4: he can use anger as a really powerful fuel, and

125
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:03,279
Speaker 4: I was curious, whether it's art, comedy and sports with Shack.

126
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 4: When you get control over it, how does it give

127
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 4: you maybe an advantage over other people that don't have

128
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:09,880
Speaker 4: that naturally.

129
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: Well, I look at anger as the pilot light in

130
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 2: my life. It can't be the flame because it'll consume you.

131
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: But if you use it and know how to access it,

132
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: turn it on. All it is is passion, and if

133
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 2: you let it get out of control, it becomes something.

134
00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 2: It can be violent, it can be self destructive. But

135
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 2: if you learn to control that pilot light, then eight

136
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 2: too many people can beat you.

137
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: It's the best time of the year for college hoops. Unfortunately,

138
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: I don't think my former squad will be making it

139
