It was like it was 0:17:27.280 --> 0:17:29.840 like the weirdest thing that was Like my first thought 0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:32.439 was like everything that I've been through, like all the 0:17:32.480 --> 0:17:36.119 crazy shit, you know, with my family, stepfather, losing my brother. 0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:38.800 I thought about all that, and then I looked at 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:40.840 where I was and then I was like I could 0:17:40.880 --> 0:17:43.440 do this, you know.

They don't do they do the 0:34:45.760 --> 0:34:47.680 fun out of pocket. They just a funk out of podcasts. 0:34:47.680 --> 0:34:49.840 They don't do any acting or anything. But but I like, 0:34:50.520 --> 0:34:53.600 I don't know, I like performing. I like entertainment itself. 0:34:53.640 --> 0:34:56.280 I like it's I don't know, it's just one of obvious. 0:34:56.280 --> 0:34:57.920 You're gonna be in a jet appetitle movie. I can 0:34:57.960 --> 0:35:00.319 feel it. Man, I'll do that. What's up? Jut what's 0:35:00.360 --> 0:35:03.120 the other what's the other guy? There's Judd, and then 0:35:03.120 --> 0:35:06.680 there's there's another big comedy guy I don't know that 0:35:06.760 --> 0:35:11.279 does that also directs comedy movies. Will Ferrell is the 0:35:11.360 --> 0:35:14.200 jet appatol guy, right well, I think Will does a 0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:16.000 lot with Jet Appatite. And then the other guy is 0:35:16.040 --> 0:35:19.480 the guy who does like forty year old Virgin and 0:35:19.520 --> 0:35:23.479 I don't know that was Oh Seth Rogan. Seth Rogan 0:35:23.520 --> 0:35:25.239 does a lot of Seth Rogan does a lot. Maybe 0:35:25.320 --> 0:35:27.799 maybe they're the same guy. I think a lot of 0:35:27.800 --> 0:35:30.719 it's Judd Appatil. It got shout out to him. Yeah, bro, 0:35:30.800 --> 0:35:35.239 he does a lot. He just did he Davidson's uh yeah, 0:35:35.320 --> 0:35:37.800 King of Staten Island. Yeah. I saw that it was interesting. 0:35:40.280 --> 0:35:42.520 It was it wasn't it wasn't a bad movie like 0:35:43.160 --> 0:35:44.960 good I thought it was. I just thought it was 0:35:45.040 --> 0:35:48.640 kind of like, it wasn't very funny. How about that 0:35:48.680 --> 0:35:51.839 there were some funny parts in it, like the fact 0:35:51.840 --> 0:35:54.239 he had to take the like Bill Burst kids. The 0:35:54.280 --> 0:35:56.600 school was like, oh, yeah, that was pretty funny. I'm like, Yo, 0:35:56.680 --> 0:35:59.440 who the fuck is letting their fucking kid walk to 0:35:59.480 --> 0:36:04.000 school with some random ass motherfucker? The fuck is going 0:36:04.440 --> 0:36:06.120 a guy that's trying to get with that person's mom? 0:36:06.239 --> 0:36:10.239 The fuck that's right? He did? Yeah, yeah, no, I 0:36:10.280 --> 0:36:12.200 think that like with the stand up thing, like I 0:36:12.239 --> 0:36:15.560 think it's it's also like because of the podcasting ship, 0:36:16.040 --> 0:36:22.759 it's more on ah, like it's easier to too. I 0:36:22.760 --> 0:36:25.640 feel like, you know, five years ago, like if you 0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:27.120 were like a stand up guy, you had to be 0:36:27.200 --> 0:36:30.080 like you had to be like a real geek. Yeah, 0:36:30.200 --> 0:36:31.960 you know. Now it's like you don't have to be 0:36:32.320 --> 0:36:34.319 like my you know, there's just normal people who just 0:36:34.400 --> 0:36:36.439 like Joe Rogan in their life, and then they find 0:36:36.440 --> 0:36:39.279 these other podcasts and then people who never I feel 0:36:39.320 --> 0:36:42.440 the Comedy Store has become this. It's always been legendary. 0:36:43.040 --> 0:36:46.440 I feel like there's been like a resurgency. Oh yeah, definitely. 0:36:46.480 --> 0:36:48.439 They all talk about like how there was a point 0:36:48.440 --> 0:36:52.560 in time where it was just like no one went there. Yeah, 0:36:52.560 --> 0:36:56.279 because I remember even when it happened with the like 0:36:57.760 --> 0:37:00.239 it's it took a downfall. Like honestly, when like I 0:37:00.280 --> 0:37:03.720 think when like the men see a Rogan thing happened 0:37:04.600 --> 0:37:06.840 because they because Rogan got banned. It was like a 0:37:06.880 --> 0:37:09.120 toss up between the Comedy Store and the Laugh Factory 0:37:09.560 --> 0:37:12.040 when I first moved out here, and then I was like, 0:37:12.040 --> 0:37:14.160 oh no, there's a difference. You ever been a Chocolate 0:37:14.200 --> 0:37:18.279 Sundays at the Laugh Factory? I haven't fire. That's one 0:37:18.320 --> 0:37:20.799 of the most fire shows. Let me ask you this. 0:37:21.440 --> 0:37:24.399 Gary Owen is a white guy who does black who 0:37:24.440 --> 0:37:27.640 does black comedy. Right, so like when you go to 0:37:27.719 --> 0:37:29.960 a Gary Owen show, he could do Chocolate Sundays, he 0:37:29.960 --> 0:37:33.000 could do all that ship right. Yes, you're a black 0:37:33.040 --> 0:37:41.919 guy who doesn't necessarily do quote unquote black comedy. Yeah. 0:37:41.960 --> 0:37:43.759 I just talked about you, just talk about you and 0:37:43.800 --> 0:37:47.279 your experience, right, but like, when have you done like 0:37:47.320 --> 0:37:50.680 a black comedy night?

It's like it is. Gary 0:38:02.200 --> 0:38:04.480 Owen's not gonna go and like pull up and and 0:38:04.480 --> 0:38:06.799 and do a show with Jim Gaffigan.

You're 0:38:22.800 --> 0:38:25.719 not gonna see like a white person in there or 0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:27.799 any other like it's black.

Other than that, it was the longest twelve 0:39:08.160 --> 0:39:10.120 minutes of my life. And I was waiting for the 0:39:10.200 --> 0:39:14.719 light and then so then but then the headliner that 0:39:14.760 --> 0:39:18.480 I was open for, Rodney Perry, shout out to Rodney Perry. 0:39:19.320 --> 0:39:21.799 He was like, hey man, he goes, I'm glad you 0:39:21.840 --> 0:39:25.560 stayed you.

I can imagine, because here's the thing. 0:41:22.920 --> 0:41:26.040 They ain't gonna write a blog about your joke. You're 0:41:26.040 --> 0:41:27.560 not gonna try to cancel you.

They taught me to go after myself. 0:43:07.360 --> 0:43:09.680 So like that's why I don't connect with trying to 0:43:09.680 --> 0:43:12.000 cancel someone like that, Like I don't want to, Like, 0:43:12.960 --> 0:43:15.080 you know, I don't blame my biological father for not 0:43:15.160 --> 0:43:17.520 being around those years, right, Like I don't blame my 0:43:17.600 --> 0:43:22.160 mom for like when she stayed with my stepdad, because 0:43:22.160 --> 0:43:26.319 it's like, I don't know, I'd rather I'd rather, you know, 0:43:27.760 --> 0:43:29.719 I don't know, I'd rather make my life cool on 0:43:29.840 --> 0:43:35.040 my own than because then you're relying on other people's 0:43:35.400 --> 0:43:38.560 choices for your happiness. Yeah, Like that's not gonna be 0:43:38.680 --> 0:43:41.799 like like, yeah, save my stepfather, you know, Like yeah, 0:43:41.800 --> 0:43:44.880 I want to give people a lot of power. Yeah, yeah, 0:43:44.920 --> 0:43:47.440 exactly like you say, yeah, I went after him. You know, 0:43:47.520 --> 0:43:49.480 he ends up going to prison for the ship blah 0:43:49.480 --> 0:43:51.319 blah blah. How does that make you better ten years 0:43:51.320 --> 0:43:54.040 after that? Dude? It doesn't Like it literally does nothing 0:43:54.080 --> 0:43:56.640 for me, Like I didn't do I didn't do anything 0:43:56.680 --> 0:43:59.719 for me. I did it because I was I don't 0:43:59.760 --> 0:44:02.960 like but it's like what so right, you know that, 0:44:03.200 --> 0:44:06.759 Like like I said, I try to understand everything, you know, 0:44:06.800 --> 0:44:10.360 I try to be completely honest with everything about me. 0:44:10.440 --> 0:44:12.120 I think that there's a lot of stuff where it's 0:44:12.160 --> 0:44:17.120 like okay, man, there's definitely people who do shit. Yeah 0:44:17.400 --> 0:44:20.040 you're like, okay, well you're a piece of shit, and 0:44:21.560 --> 0:44:23.880 I mean you get aired out all day. Like there's 0:44:23.960 --> 0:44:25.799 you know, there's a lot of that, you know that 0:44:25.880 --> 0:44:27.400 I'm like, yeah, I agree with. But then there's just 0:44:27.440 --> 0:44:33.560 certain shit where it's like like wait, wait, like you 0:44:33.600 --> 0:44:36.719 can't never make a mistake. Yeah, like that, Like I 0:44:36.880 --> 0:44:38.719 was like the one I think about like a lot 0:44:38.840 --> 0:44:41.759 is like that Kevin Hart situation, like crazy, like he 0:44:41.880 --> 0:44:45.840 had old insensitive tweets, but like back then, like dude, 0:44:45.880 --> 0:44:49.880 if like you know and obviously nobody likes to slure 0:44:49.960 --> 0:44:54.000 gay people love gay people like Eminem couldn't put albums 0:44:54.000 --> 0:44:57.680 out anymore. Oh if like we went back and like 0:44:57.800 --> 0:45:00.240 held people to the same standards we hold them today, 0:45:00.680 --> 0:45:04.719 well it's just like, well, the thing is like how 0:45:04.760 --> 0:45:09.640 come no one looked post that tweet like like like 0:45:09.800 --> 0:45:12.480 after that tweet, like why didn't anyone like look at 0:45:12.480 --> 0:45:14.680 his life in the way he is after that? Right? 0:45:14.760 --> 0:45:17.000 Like why did they? Why did they define him off 0:45:17.239 --> 0:45:19.040 that something? Because if you if you looked at it, 0:45:19.080 --> 0:45:20.960 you go, oh, he hasn't done that was the last 0:45:20.960 --> 0:45:23.040 time he did something like that? As the person could 0:45:23.040 --> 0:45:25.239 have put the person what the person could have done 0:45:25.320 --> 0:45:28.359 has been like oh, man, Kevin Hart used to talk 0:45:28.400 --> 0:45:31.440 like this and he doesn't anymore. Man, he's moving like 0:45:31.640 --> 0:45:35.759 he grew. He grew. That's so awesome that people. But man, 0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:38.400 we like, you know, I think a lot of people 0:45:38.400 --> 0:45:40.960 are just because they can't go after someone else that 0:45:41.000 --> 0:45:43.080 they I think that it's a little bit more closer 0:45:43.120 --> 0:45:45.080 than him, so they try to I think they just 0:45:45.080 --> 0:45:47.879 go after these people and try to make this like thing. 0:45:48.120 --> 0:45:52.920 Me I'm I'm unapologetic as fuck. Like I mean, like 0:45:53.040 --> 0:45:55.640 I don't like I don't have a fear of like 0:45:55.880 --> 0:46:00.080 not being liked or not being you know, people. I 0:46:00.080 --> 0:46:02.240 think too. What's great about like being in your position 0:46:02.360 --> 0:46:04.360 is like you have your own platform. You're also comedian, 0:46:04.440 --> 0:46:07.200 so it's like you're so I I want my comedians 0:46:07.200 --> 0:46:10.719 to say offensive things. Yeah, well because like like yo, 0:46:10.840 --> 0:46:13.200 think about the Chappelle special that came out over this 0:46:13.280 --> 0:46:16.080 transmit and how it was it was really funny, Like 0:46:16.160 --> 0:46:18.640 it's not coming from a place of hatred. But he's 0:46:18.680 --> 0:46:21.760 a comedian and he's supposed to make fun of people. Yeah, 0:46:21.840 --> 0:46:24.680 that's all people. That's the thing about comedy. The reason 0:46:24.680 --> 0:46:28.520 why it's funny because we're saying shit differently. We're gonna 0:46:28.520 --> 0:46:30.760 say it in a way that not everybody is thinking, 0:46:31.200 --> 0:46:33.200 so we're always thinking of it in a different way. 0:46:33.920 --> 0:46:37.279 And and every time a comedian writes a joke, no 0:46:37.400 --> 0:46:39.879 comedian is writing a joke to go, man, I want 0:46:39.880 --> 0:46:43.239 to fucking bash on these people. No comedian does that 0:46:44.080 --> 0:46:47.120 right in a joke, because damn, that's funny. The intent 0:46:47.239 --> 0:46:50.239 is funny. And then there what's the one guy, Uh, 0:46:50.520 --> 0:46:52.480 what's his name? The guy who made the fucked up 0:46:52.520 --> 0:46:56.799 Kobe joke on Twitter when he died. No, that guy, 0:46:56.840 --> 0:46:59.960 that guy's not just not funny, Like, hey, bro, like, 0:47:00.040 --> 0:47:01.719 what what were you thinking? But does but do I 0:47:01.719 --> 0:47:05.520 think he deserves to get canceled? No, like he lost. Yeah, 0:47:05.520 --> 0:47:07.920 it was a horrible joke, horrible joe joke. And even 0:47:07.960 --> 0:47:11.040 if it wasn't a joke, like he just like he 0:47:11.080 --> 0:47:12.880 didn't even he didn't he didn't even have to do that. 0:47:13.040 --> 0:47:17.280 Read the room, buddy, Yeah, read the fucking room. Sometimes 0:47:17.320 --> 0:47:19.640 you just got to read the room. Yeah yeah, yeah, 0:47:19.640 --> 0:47:21.719 But but I agree with you, like, like I don't 0:47:21.719 --> 0:47:23.799 funk with that dude because of what he said, because 0:47:23.840 --> 0:47:26.680 I'm like, yo, he's probably not that great of a guy. Plus, 0:47:26.719 --> 0:47:32.200 I he fucking poisoned the Burke guy with some drugs, yeah, 0:47:32.320 --> 0:47:34.120 which she was like, bro, what kind of guy does that? 0:47:34.160 --> 0:47:38.200 What the fuck gave mexstausy or something without I'm all right, 0:47:38.200 --> 0:47:40.200 we'll look. I'm just not gonna I don't have to 0:47:40.200 --> 0:47:42.560 support the guy, but he should be able to still 0:47:42.600 --> 0:47:46.000 go get booked. But like, here's the thing, like people 0:47:46.000 --> 0:47:48.279 don't realize about comedians, like you got to think of 0:47:48.680 --> 0:47:53.960 comedians as like a like like uh like TV. You 0:47:54.080 --> 0:47:57.759 got a lot of channels. Yeah, I don't like I 0:47:57.800 --> 0:48:02.120 don't like you know, I'm not a big friends guy exactly. 0:48:02.400 --> 0:48:04.880 I thought Two and a Half Men was trash, but 0:48:04.960 --> 0:48:07.560 guess what, people like it. And that's how that's how 0:48:07.560 --> 0:48:09.440 you gotta think of comedy. So like I don't have 0:48:09.560 --> 0:48:11.799 like like I don't like get weird. Like like I've 0:48:11.800 --> 0:48:15.600 had like one lady you know, come up to me 0:48:15.640 --> 0:48:17.359 after a show because she was offended by a joke 0:48:17.760 --> 0:48:20.960 and I was just like, okay, you're at a you 0:48:21.000 --> 0:48:23.160 should you should be off like people. She wanted a 0:48:23.200 --> 0:48:25.399 battle and I was just like, okay, there's no point 0:48:25.440 --> 0:48:28.240 to put any energy there. Yeah, because one I knew, 0:48:28.280 --> 0:48:31.440 I like, I know my intentions, I know where I'm 0:48:31.440 --> 0:48:34.400 coming from, I know who I am, and I know 0:48:34.440 --> 0:48:36.919 what I'm saying. And first of all, you can't pick 0:48:36.960 --> 0:48:41.120 and choose throughout my set of what you thought was 0:48:42.239 --> 0:48:44.560 offensive or not. There'd be no time to live if 0:48:44.560 --> 0:48:48.799 people did that with everything in their life. Oh and 0:48:48.840 --> 0:48:52.040 there's people who do that. Yeah, they do. You know 0:48:52.080 --> 0:48:53.640 what they're gonna do. I'll tell you what. Because I 0:48:54.160 --> 0:48:56.160 used to be just like my anger, I used to 0:48:56.239 --> 0:48:58.160 just pop, you know what I mean. It was just 0:48:58.160 --> 0:48:59.920 a lot of it just because I was sensitive to like, 0:49:00.480 --> 0:49:02.440 you know, I thought everybody needed to like, you know, 0:49:03.160 --> 0:49:07.000 to my needs. But you know, you get exhausted after 0:49:07.160 --> 0:49:08.920 because it because it doesn't really because I used to 0:49:09.000 --> 0:49:11.120 be the same way where I would like, I would 0:49:11.120 --> 0:49:14.839 like argue with people on Facebook, which is the worst ship? Oh, bru, 0:49:15.120 --> 0:49:17.520 you're one of those people. I would I would see 0:49:17.560 --> 0:49:19.880 some ship or somebody would try to say some slick ship, 0:49:19.960 --> 0:49:24.719 some local rapper or something, and I would just why 0:49:24.760 --> 0:49:27.640 am I giving energy to this ship? Because it because 0:49:28.040 --> 0:49:32.080 I know it's so funny, because like, no conversation is 0:49:32.160 --> 0:49:36.000 authentic over the internet. Never think about it like you didn't. 0:49:36.040 --> 0:49:38.520 You didn't hit me up to do this podcast, to go, 0:49:39.000 --> 0:49:40.879 hey we're gonna we're gonna do it over Twitter though 0:49:41.400 --> 0:49:43.239 you know what I mean, That doesn't it doesn't make 0:49:43.239 --> 0:49:47.520 any sense. So it's like you know when people like 0:49:47.600 --> 0:49:50.000 go back and like I don't know you if someone 0:49:50.120 --> 0:49:54.120 if someone tells me, hey, this happened, and then I go, 0:49:54.160 --> 0:49:56.560 how do you know? Like how do you know that's true? 0:49:56.920 --> 0:49:58.799 And then they go, We'll go look at Twitter. I'll 0:49:58.840 --> 0:50:00.959 slap them in the face because I hate that ship. 0:50:02.640 --> 0:50:04.880 You know, it's crazy, just is It's just also people 0:50:04.960 --> 0:50:07.920 just get their information from these places, like and they 0:50:08.000 --> 0:50:11.359 hang their hat on it.

Another one of my homies 0:55:23.560 --> 0:55:25.480 had got it that I was exposed around. He had 0:55:25.520 --> 0:55:30.560 got it. Didn't get it.

He's 0:55:42.480 --> 0:55:47.080 I mean, it's ship. Just kidd the gods and died anyway. Yeah, 0:55:47.120 --> 0:55:48.680 it was just so crazy because I would always like 0:55:48.719 --> 0:55:53.840 watch Brandon Shop talk about the mask thing. Bro I 0:55:53.880 --> 0:55:55.520 even told him. I was like, you're talking about it. 0:55:55.680 --> 0:55:59.040 You were talking that ship I called it. I was like, bro, 0:55:59.480 --> 0:56:04.960 hey snapped you upside the head boy Jesus. And then 0:56:05.000 --> 0:56:07.480 he was like he was like, I mean, he goes, 0:56:07.480 --> 0:56:10.320 here's the thing. Yeah, I'm fine, you know, I'm good. 0:56:10.600 --> 0:56:12.480 I knew what I was signing up for. But he 0:56:12.640 --> 0:56:14.439 was like, you know, it's not worth it. He goes 0:56:14.520 --> 0:56:17.160 because you know, uh, you know, he goes, I had 0:56:17.160 --> 0:56:19.680 to record you know, my podcast at a home, like 0:56:19.760 --> 0:56:21.440 I got to step away from your family. Yeah, he 0:56:21.480 --> 0:56:23.839 had like he had to stay in the in his basement. Yeah. 0:56:25.480 --> 0:56:27.480 I mean I understand that, the idea of like, you 0:56:27.480 --> 0:56:29.239 know what, fuck it, I'm gonna do it because if 0:56:29.280 --> 0:56:30.439 I get it, I'm gonna get it, but I'm gonna 0:56:30.440 --> 0:56:32.520 still live my life. I don't think that's smart. It's 0:56:32.520 --> 0:56:35.399 a little selfish, but like I get it. Like, but yeah, 0:56:35.520 --> 0:56:38.520 even like I feel like Rogan kind of chilled out 0:56:38.560 --> 0:56:41.439 on his like because he was on that wave too 0:56:41.480 --> 0:56:44.040 a little bit. Well probably because he probably because I 0:56:44.040 --> 0:56:46.680 would say, maybe because he knew more people that were 0:56:46.719 --> 0:56:49.640 getting it. Yeah. But like yeah, even like I saw him, 0:56:49.760 --> 0:56:52.359 he was saying, like you know he did Houston. Yeah, 0:56:52.440 --> 0:56:55.040 he was like, dude, what it wasn't worth it? It 0:56:55.080 --> 0:56:56.480 was not worth it. He's like, I thought I'd go 0:56:56.520 --> 0:56:58.160 out like it's just not worth it. Like, I get 0:56:58.160 --> 0:57:02.160 it that you did the Phoenix show. Yeah I didn't 0:57:02.200 --> 0:57:05.680 get it there. Huh. And that weekend we had did 0:57:05.719 --> 0:57:09.480 those shows is when a Z spiked yep. But the 0:57:09.520 --> 0:57:12.080 way so the way uh Stand Up Life had did 0:57:12.080 --> 0:57:14.759 it so like I said, that club seats around like 0:57:15.120 --> 0:57:18.440 close to six hundred. Well they only they they only 0:57:18.960 --> 0:57:22.240 let three hundred in. They used the the you they 0:57:22.320 --> 0:57:25.760 used the whole room so like everybody so like if you, 0:57:25.880 --> 0:57:28.120 if you were if you like only people that were 0:57:28.160 --> 0:57:30.680 sitting by each other came with each other came with 0:57:30.760 --> 0:57:33.320 each other, so like otherwise like and it was like 0:57:33.400 --> 0:57:35.320 it was spread out like that. But the way they 0:57:35.320 --> 0:57:38.360 had the lights, it didn't like we couldn't tell on 0:57:38.440 --> 0:57:41.400 the stage like that. It looked like that, you know, 0:57:41.400 --> 0:57:43.520 because it was like the crowds like you know, like 0:57:44.120 --> 0:57:48.080 not lit, so uh, we couldn't tell, but it seemed 0:57:48.120 --> 0:57:50.680 like a full room. But it's just everybody was at 0:57:50.720 --> 0:57:54.600 a distance. Uh have you has? Have you? I Mean 0:57:54.640 --> 0:57:56.200 I think it's inevitable you're gonna end up going on 0:57:56.200 --> 0:57:58.520 the Joe Rogan podcast. But is that that ever been 0:57:58.680 --> 0:58:02.000 tossed around officially? Oh yeah, we've talked about it. Yeah, 0:58:02.120 --> 0:58:05.120 it don't happen. When it happens, and then it's over 0:58:06.280 --> 0:58:09.920 and then it's a wrap And I'm just kidding, Like, 0:58:10.120 --> 0:58:13.280 what's the west Wood?

So it's so it's no Gallagher. That's fair. Yeah, 0:59:23.320 --> 0:59:27.960 there's such polar opposites musically. Oh that's the funny thing 0:59:28.000 --> 0:59:29.600 about it. We were like, how are you an know? 0:59:30.200 --> 0:59:34.360 I'm like, it's well, okay. What people don't realize about 0:59:34.400 --> 0:59:40.280 Oasis is that Oasis has a very punk attitude, right, 0:59:40.680 --> 0:59:43.560 and that's why, like that's what caught my attention with him, 0:59:43.960 --> 0:59:47.800 and like outside of Wonderwall and Champagne super Nova, most 0:59:47.840 --> 0:59:50.520 people don't realize they have like some kind of like 0:59:50.720 --> 0:59:53.360 harder harder ship, harder ship. Because when I was a kid, 0:59:53.440 --> 0:59:56.400 I had the album What's the Story More? Yeah? Yeah, 0:59:56.480 --> 0:59:59.320 great album. Yeah, great album.

Hey, what's the 1:00:21.280 --> 1:00:23.760 one band? What's what? Like? It's funny because I always 1:00:24.000 --> 1:00:28.200 there's certain music I hear when when whenever it pops 1:00:28.280 --> 1:00:30.920 up in my life, I'll be like, yo, this is 1:00:30.960 --> 1:00:35.720 this is Westwood? What's like that? Like a band that 1:00:35.880 --> 1:00:38.480 like you think like this was like the band in 1:00:38.560 --> 1:00:42.840 high school. Oh, the band it's for me. It's always 1:00:42.920 --> 1:00:50.760 Authority zero. Oh, Bro Damn or Bionic Jive was Doug 1:00:50.840 --> 1:00:55.280 Cooper gave me that CD Damn Oh? Or there was 1:00:55.320 --> 1:00:58.160 also the Funk Junkies. The Funk Junkies now, but the 1:00:58.160 --> 1:01:00.640 Funk Junkies were never popping like they weren't. The kids 1:01:00.680 --> 1:01:02.840 in high school were bumping Authority zero. Yeah, they were 1:01:02.840 --> 1:01:06.640 bumping Authority zero. But you know I listened to Authority zero. 1:01:06.720 --> 1:01:09.919 But that wasn't like my That wasn't your bag. Yeah, yeah, 1:01:10.040 --> 1:01:13.280 I'd say probably black Flag that was my like like 1:01:13.320 --> 1:01:16.520 anytime it comes on, like I know exactly where I was, 1:01:16.720 --> 1:01:22.400 where I was, how I was, you know, my whole existence. Yeah, man, 1:01:22.440 --> 1:01:25.840 that's that's crazy. It is. So did you start to 1:01:25.840 --> 1:01:28.080 get into that hardcore ship in high school or before that? 1:01:28.520 --> 1:01:29.919 You cause you were said you were in a band 1:01:29.960 --> 1:01:32.360 before that, right, Yeah, I start I got I got 1:01:32.440 --> 1:01:36.040 in the hard core stuff in junior high Pow Patriots baby, 1:01:36.080 --> 1:01:39.160 yeah when I was like thirteen yo.

And I think that Trump being president 1:01:45.480 --> 1:01:47.920 has shown me that there are much worse conservative people 1:01:47.920 --> 1:01:51.520 in the world of Mormons, because yo, when I wait, 1:01:51.600 --> 1:01:55.240 when I moved from tight, they're tight. Because listen, let 1:01:55.240 --> 1:01:57.520 me tell you something. When I moved from Sunny Slope 1:01:58.160 --> 1:02:01.120 to Mesa, I was like, I was like thirteen and 1:02:01.280 --> 1:02:04.200 he was in Sunny Slow first.

They 1:02:29.480 --> 1:02:31.880 were like the nice That's what I'm saying. Like Westwood 1:02:31.880 --> 1:02:34.080 carried a lot of Mormon. Yeah, they were super nice. 1:02:34.240 --> 1:02:36.440 Like a good amount of the white kids that went 1:02:36.480 --> 1:02:40.240 to Westwood were Mormon, probably Mormon.

Like, bro, 1:22:36.000 --> 1:22:39.479 this guy gets under people's skin, which is so weird. 1:22:39.720 --> 1:22:43.400 It's so weird like that he's under Meek mills skin 1:22:43.600 --> 1:22:48.560 something crazy and Meek Mill shouldn't even acknowledge him. Yeah, 1:22:48.960 --> 1:22:51.599 and he's all, man, it's so yeah, it's so weird 1:22:51.600 --> 1:22:53.920 to watch like when people, like, when people get upset 1:22:53.960 --> 1:22:58.839 about it, I'm like, y'all said, like you know whatever, 1:22:59.680 --> 1:23:04.960 Yeah he was like he's yeah, yeah, he dropped that video. 1:23:06.400 --> 1:23:09.840 I was like this motherfucker's just like like a TV 1:23:10.040 --> 1:23:14.360 series that sort of. God, dude, I said this before 1:23:14.360 --> 1:23:17.240 he got out of jail, Like, I definitely didn't think 1:23:17.320 --> 1:23:19.800 he was gonna be like this as far I knew people, 1:23:19.920 --> 1:23:22.479 I knew whatever his first look was was gonna be big. Yeah. 1:23:23.080 --> 1:23:26.519 But whenever they make his like life movie about this 1:23:26.560 --> 1:23:28.799 whole trial and like all that, it's gonna be fire. 1:23:30.560 --> 1:23:32.599 He was putting hits out on people, I was like, 1:23:32.800 --> 1:23:35.479 is he untouchable right now? I mean, I think he's 1:23:35.520 --> 1:23:38.080 got fed security, so I think, like because he's a 1:23:38.280 --> 1:23:40.840 technically in the witness protection program, but he gets out 1:23:40.880 --> 1:23:45.800 of it in August. In August. But they just said 1:23:45.800 --> 1:23:48.320 today that he hired twenty two X cops as a 1:23:48.360 --> 1:23:52.040 security ass force. So he's got twenty two. Imagine how 1:23:52.120 --> 1:23:55.320 much money that is. Imagine if you're paying one hundred 1:23:55.360 --> 1:23:57.040 thousand dollars for each one of those guys a year. 1:23:57.040 --> 1:23:59.760 And that's on a low end, because those guys know 1:23:59.800 --> 1:24:03.200 they're signing up for some bullshit. So you move, you 1:24:03.240 --> 1:24:05.280 want me to go protect a snitch, you have to 1:24:05.280 --> 1:24:07.200 pay me two hundred thousand. He's gonna spend at least 1:24:07.240 --> 1:24:10.759 five to ten million a year on security, which is crazy. 1:24:12.520 --> 1:24:16.920 He makes that much money Yeah, off pro I don't Yeah, 1:24:16.960 --> 1:24:18.680 I don't know how the music world like so talk 1:24:18.720 --> 1:24:20.640 about it like this. He got an advance I think 1:24:20.680 --> 1:24:22.000 when he was in jail. He signed like a twenty 1:24:22.000 --> 1:24:24.800 five million dollar contract or something like that. He did 1:24:24.960 --> 1:24:28.880 when he was in jail, so they knew did the 1:24:28.920 --> 1:24:31.760 guy named is Elliott Grange. He is the same guy 1:24:31.800 --> 1:24:36.240 who uh has Trippy Red under his label. Yeah, so yeah, 1:24:36.280 --> 1:24:38.800 they already they bagged him out. And now you got 1:24:38.920 --> 1:24:42.160 to realize, like the thing he fucked himself on was 1:24:42.240 --> 1:24:49.320 most rappers now make money off of shows because like touring, Yeah, 1:24:49.360 --> 1:24:51.960 like touring is like probably the biggest source of revenue 1:24:51.960 --> 1:24:55.000 for artists, Okay, because your music doesn't sell like he 1:24:55.080 --> 1:24:58.519 used to. Yeah, but he off the rip, fucked off 1:24:58.520 --> 1:25:00.439 his He fucked up being able to go on tour 1:25:00.439 --> 1:25:03.360 because he made enemies in every city. So he if 1:25:03.400 --> 1:25:05.080 you notice he never went on a six nine tour 1:25:05.439 --> 1:25:08.400 and he never did Rolling Loud. They wouldn't book him 1:25:08.400 --> 1:25:10.200 because he was a big liability because my boys do 1:25:10.320 --> 1:25:12.920 Rolling Loud, Like he never got put on those lineups 1:25:13.680 --> 1:25:16.080 or he never did Hot ninety seven summer James. Well, 1:25:16.120 --> 1:25:18.200 that's why he was like come out in surprise. Yeah, 1:25:18.200 --> 1:25:20.840 they'd have to sneak him in the venue. Yeah. And 1:25:20.920 --> 1:25:23.519 so like he never did any festivals. He never got 1:25:23.520 --> 1:25:26.240 his festival bag. Yeah, he never did a tour. He 1:25:26.360 --> 1:25:30.400 only would he'd go in and do festivals in Russia. Wow. 1:25:30.880 --> 1:25:36.000 So like he's gotta be making I mean off of 1:25:36.080 --> 1:25:39.360 YouTube and his music. Shit, you would hope he's making. 1:25:40.200 --> 1:25:42.360 I don't know, dude, because it doesn't make like like 1:25:42.400 --> 1:25:44.200 I can't even make it make sense because even if 1:25:44.200 --> 1:25:49.120 he took that twenty five million, he's got to recoup that. Yeah, 1:25:49.160 --> 1:25:50.640 So I don't know if he I don't know, but 1:25:50.720 --> 1:25:52.439 yeah I think I don't know, dude. I think the 1:25:52.520 --> 1:25:56.080 music is asked Cheeks to be honest. His music, Yeah, 1:25:56.080 --> 1:25:59.479 it's pretty bad. I mean yeah, like there's worse music. 1:25:59.520 --> 1:26:03.120 For the record, there's worse music. There's worse that's like, yeah, 1:26:03.120 --> 1:26:05.559 it's not something I take serious, but it is like 1:26:06.240 --> 1:26:08.679 it's not great. It's like I mean, like it's cute, 1:26:08.720 --> 1:26:11.840 like it's like TikTok music. Yeah, you're just like, oh okay, 1:26:11.880 --> 1:26:13.960 it's just like something catching for the moment. What do 1:26:13.960 --> 1:26:16.519 you think of like comedians who like are popping on 1:26:16.560 --> 1:26:20.920 social media, but not necessarily stand up comedians stay in 1:26:20.920 --> 1:26:24.560 their lane because there's like guys like what like Haha Davis. 1:26:25.000 --> 1:26:27.560 I actually don't know those guys. Oh I don't. I 1:26:27.560 --> 1:26:30.479 don't know, but you know what I'm talking about. There's guys. Yeah, 1:26:31.040 --> 1:26:36.839 I don't King Bach he did more of a YouTuber. 1:26:36.880 --> 1:26:39.720 But so those those guys, I've never I've never seen 1:26:39.720 --> 1:26:41.800 their stand ups. I can't. I don't think they do 1:26:41.880 --> 1:26:44.599 stand up. I hope not. I mean, I don't know. 1:26:45.640 --> 1:26:47.439 Let me tell let me tell you something. I tell 1:26:47.439 --> 1:26:50.519 you this. Do you like like frown frown on those 1:26:50.520 --> 1:26:55.240 guys media you get in front of get on fucking stage. No, 1:26:55.280 --> 1:26:57.719 not at all, because like a rappers that you can freestyle, 1:26:57.760 --> 1:27:01.959 you know. No, I think it's I mean, they found 1:27:02.439 --> 1:27:04.639 they found it through that, you know. I don't think 1:27:04.680 --> 1:27:07.360 it's I don't think it's wrong. I don't think it's incorrect, 1:27:07.439 --> 1:27:11.639 you know, like because you gotta think. You know, there's 1:27:11.640 --> 1:27:13.760 a lot of people that you know, kind of want 1:27:13.840 --> 1:27:15.800 like they want their dreams to like to have their 1:27:15.800 --> 1:27:19.360 own TV show or be a movie. But you know, 1:27:19.520 --> 1:27:22.720 somehow they found this way through the online world that 1:27:22.720 --> 1:27:25.759 they don't need a producer, these these people or anything 1:27:25.800 --> 1:27:27.840 like that, so they just make these clips, they make 1:27:27.880 --> 1:27:30.920 these things, you know, which is just entertaining, you know. Yeah, 1:27:30.920 --> 1:27:32.680 I mean I'm entertained by I mean a lot of 1:27:32.800 --> 1:27:34.800 the Instagram guys are so funny to me. But yeah, 1:27:34.840 --> 1:27:38.840 I just always wonder, like because they're technically comedians, because 1:27:38.840 --> 1:27:40.320 they make people aught for a living, but they're not 1:27:40.640 --> 1:27:45.560 comedian comedians. Yeah, like they're not stand up. Yeah, I 1:27:45.640 --> 1:27:48.200 feel like stand up. Here's the thing about stand up. 1:27:49.560 --> 1:27:53.400 Stand up is one of the hardest things to do 1:27:53.600 --> 1:27:58.080 because you literally the only way you can know how 1:27:58.080 --> 1:28:00.760 to do it or doing it is by doing it. 1:28:01.400 --> 1:28:04.720 You can't practice. There's no practicing with it. You you 1:28:04.920 --> 1:28:07.320 the only way to do stand up is to do 1:28:07.360 --> 1:28:10.280 it is to do it in front of an audience. Yeah, 1:28:10.360 --> 1:28:12.759 you gotta up in front of everybody. You gotta and 1:28:12.560 --> 1:28:14.680 that you have you have to accept that and that, 1:28:14.880 --> 1:28:18.160 like the thing is is like Instagram or you know, 1:28:20.200 --> 1:28:22.080 yeah I'm not and that I'm not bragging all this. 1:28:22.200 --> 1:28:24.360 What I'm saying that like you can edit, like you 1:28:24.360 --> 1:28:26.320 can do these things to it to make it. You know, 1:28:26.680 --> 1:28:31.679 this funny thing you got noice like it's right there, 1:28:31.840 --> 1:28:34.439 like it's like right in your face, you know, like 1:28:34.800 --> 1:28:38.680 you're getting the judgment right there. You know. That's like 1:28:38.720 --> 1:28:42.679 someone painting a picture and they have someone on there 1:28:42.720 --> 1:28:47.200 like behind them just like ooh ah, or like yeah 1:28:47.240 --> 1:28:49.840 that's tight, you know what I mean, Like that's what 1:28:49.960 --> 1:28:52.960 it's like. You know. I got an approach to do 1:28:52.960 --> 1:28:57.240 any specials because Netflix is doing a lot of comedy specials. No, 1:28:57.240 --> 1:28:59.400 not yet. I wouldn't do one right now. You gotta 1:28:59.400 --> 1:29:02.280 wait it out. I wade that. Get your wait up 1:29:02.280 --> 1:29:04.439 a little.

Yeah, 1:29:19.760 --> 1:29:23.760 it's I mean, yeah, it sucks because like like Bill 1:29:23.800 --> 1:29:27.479 bur didn't do a special till he was like I 1:29:27.479 --> 1:29:29.880 think almost I think he said almost fifteen or twenty 1:29:29.960 --> 1:29:33.759 years ago.
