Starting point is 00:02:41 He's in there, and, oh, this is going bad. I got a hat. What do you use's what's the product in the hair? I just put a little Moroccan oil in it when I get out of the shower, you know oil of Argon What do you get whenever you get a little of our guy some shit like that? Sounds like some for fucking Star Trek whatever I'm using ain't working. All right, well Klingon jizz get it going Moroccan oil I know that stuff. Yeah, that's fancy stuff. Yeah, I get about four good hair days a year.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Can I recommend something? Yeah. As a fellow follicle man? Hoagies. Mayonnaise. Castor oil. Have you heard about it? No.
Starting point is 00:03:23 Isn't that for cars? No. It was, I think, to make you throw up when you were a kid a little castor oil in there It's nice. It's better than any of those the hair gels or the pomades or whatever a little bit of castor oil You're more follicly gifted right? My shit curls up with steaming up under here as we speak I'm gonna have fucking dreadlocks again when I take my hat off give us although He did have dreadlocks at one point. I do believe you did also put a head dreads Not when I knew you no no no I dreads in an eyebrow ring my freshman year of college
Starting point is 00:03:56 That's that's a guy well. Thanks for coming That's your first white dude with dreads. We've had on the show. All right. There you go. How does that happen? You just stop washing your hair? Oh no. A lot of mid-grade weed, I believe. That was a big part of it. Goddamn, Bob Marley's great as it's got me.
Starting point is 00:04:15 I saw a Lil Wayne's Crape episode of The Right Time in My Life. Sure, that hit you. Also I do want to say you have, the first podcast episode me and Foleyley have ever recorded was a podcast we used to called the Center City Comedy Podcast And John gave us our first positive piece of feedback. We've ever received on that show He texted me because I loved the show. What submarine did you record? You guys have come a long way That was about 11 years ago. Back to the dreads. Hold on a second. I can't let this slide.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Of course. How long did it take you to build them up? Takes a while, right? And when did you decide I'm going to be a white dude wearing dreads? And nobody said anything to you? I'm sure a lot of people did. Yeah, a lot of people did. It was, I guess, senior year high school. I was like, I'm not even fucking around. I saw Lil Wayne with dreads for the first time. That's a big swing I guess senior year high school. I was like I'm not even fucking around I saw low Wayne That's a with red for the first time here a high school. I want some corn rows my way
Starting point is 00:05:10 I couldn't do it in school so I had to wait till the summer I had a Puerto Rican chick dread my are like partition my hair off, and I ordered a kit on the internet Whoa that I put like beeswax in and then dreads for white Comes with free patchouli oil or whatever and They were not Great, and you just don't wash your hair. There was a special shampoo in the little kit that I bought They stunk physically metaphorically
Starting point is 00:05:40 Every way you can think of them stinkin and how long did you keep him? I think three months. And what did your parents say? Not much about it. They were pretty happy to see me looking like a skinhead when they got back from my little sister's basketball game one day. Now was this more like like hippie dreads or like you wanted to be Lil Wayne dread? Like what, or was it a, but walked in both worlds a little bit? I was still in my G-Unit era.
Starting point is 00:06:04 Shout out, hey, I still am we're right many rap lyrics at the time I was freestyling a little bit oh don't know if I was writing anything down had to come off the dome I was all off the dome off the top as they say in the streets you get drunk you freestyle with your friends sure I've been to those parties man I. Would you stay? I'm not hiding it. No, I respect. All right. All right. How does it we got to get the backstory of how a guy decides to get dreads? Are you from Delaware? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:34 Wilmington, Delaware. Wilmington, Delaware. OK, take us back to their Wilmington, Delaware. Mom, dad. Yeah. Grew up. Mom, dad. Brother, sisters, older sister, younger sister. How far apart are they five years each five years? Yeah, so they're ten years apart, and they're like best friends Really yeah, I'm out of the mix And you guys grew up in a house yeah, I guess you would call it a single family home on this program
Starting point is 00:06:58 I will say it was a neighborhood of row homes Okay, our house was in the middle of the block, not only connected on one side, and in between our house and the next house was a shared driveway. Okay, wait. One garage or no garage? No garage, just led to the backyards. So it was basically like an alleyway, no one parked in there. That's where people run it from the cops. No garage. You ran down the alleyway. No one parked in there. That's her people running from the cops No garage
Starting point is 00:07:28 Not your shared driveway buddy Get the hell out of my shared driveway talking to the cops I don't know we have a shared driveway not an alleyway So I don't know if that would necessarily count as a single family. That's not so you were connected on one side So what I don't understand what a single family home is like a free stay in the hand-building. A family who loves each other. A townhouse doesn't qualify as a loving home.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Yeah, no, but you not the ones I've stayed in. They were not have dreadlocks. Wait, let's get the actual definition single family. Say if you can get a single what the proper definition of a single family home domicile. I believe it's standalone. What did your mom do? What did your dad do my dad at? One point he owned in an accessibility company. He sold like for like wheelchair ramps that kind of stuff You know one point yeah, that wasn't a good week. That wasn't the whole time okay? and then he eventually
Starting point is 00:08:23 That wasn't the whole time. Okay, and then he eventually Sold life insurance after that what happened to the business? I think he grew to hate handicapped people after some time of working with them and then didn't want to be in that business Sure, did you have like a buddy? What did he do before that? Do you know? Before that I think he worked at a hardware company. Okay. That I think was my grandfather's at some point. At some point. Yeah, a lot of his murky love blurry memories. Talking about rising and falling in America in Wilmington. What did your mom do? My mom worked for a lawyer, you know, a
Starting point is 00:08:59 secretary but okay, more of a legal assistant kind of paralegal type secretary. I think secretary is downplaying. Drafting documents and stuff like that, probably. She's, you know, transcribing whatever the guy says in the tape recorder, all that stuff. The whole time that you were growing up, that was her main thing. Yeah, she was stay at home until maybe my sister
Starting point is 00:09:17 was in kindergarten or something. Your younger sister. Yeah, my little sister. And then I guess she started back full time when I was like eight or 10 or something like that. Okay. Yeah, my little sister. And then I guess she started back full time when I was like eight or ten or something like that. OK. Yeah. Huh. Would you say that the folks were doing well? Did your dad do good in the insurance game?
Starting point is 00:09:32 He mentioned the shared driveway. I mean, that's just a house, though. Sure. Of course. What were the cars? That's a big indicator. And did you share those? They had a car each. OK, that's pretty good. Two car point two car. So my mom was always rocking a Buick.
Starting point is 00:09:50 So she OK with it. Shout out to a nice Buick American car. Pop up work for GM. So they had the GM discount. So it was always Buick. OK, I think my dad had a minivan at some point, a nice town and country once once we had three kids. When the town and country's all right
Starting point is 00:10:05 That was a good vehicle. Let me slap a big old Santa Cruz sticker on the back of it really Yeah on the back of the van, huh? He was he was good to me when I was skateboarding you know he was that's I respect that he was my camera man Really? Oh yeah, he did my my sponsor me tape your dad films your sponsor me tape Hold on we're getting way ahead of ourselves here. It's crazy back this up. Do they still live in that house? No, they move what was the name of the street that that was on that street was Charles place Charles That sounds pretty nice like a sick something from England or something sounds nice, but the neighborhood was Cleveland Heights She sounds nice, but the neighborhood was Cleland Heights
Starting point is 00:10:47 Cleland that ain't a great sound Do you have the definite? Drop the V what do you have the definition of a single-family home a single-family home is a Freestanding dwelling that is designed to be occupied by one household. Okay has its own land okay like a kitchen in a driveway What a hard way to family that I did not grow up single-family all connected on both sides And another family And I quiz those on the roof
Starting point is 00:11:21 Okay, all right, and how close proximity did you live to your grandparents? grandparents Were a two-minute walk away two-minute walk away, so you're yeah So is that your mom's parents or your dad's parents mom's parents lived right up the street, okay? It says that's a neighborhood. She grew up in yes, okay, and where is your dad was your dad from Delaware as well He was I believe all of my grandparents were born in Delaware Which is kind of remarkable and you're in warming that's great. I don't think that's insane No, I did everybody that I know that's ever lived in Delaware is like move there to get away from something Yeah, no tax break or something been trapped there
Starting point is 00:11:53 Really and you're in the city of Wilmington proper. I'd say a thousand feet from the city line I spent some time on Google Maps. I know exactly how far I was feet from this city line I walked home from school every day never walked to school. Why? Was fucking running late. Okay Yeah, your parents would drive your bus parents are driving To get a bus five minutes would be insane sure. I don't think that was an option So the school you were so you were a proper walker. Yeah. School was in the city. House was just outside of the city limits. Gotcha. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:30 Legal, is it? I think that's the whole thing about the city. Catholic school. Okay, that makes sense. People come from everywhere. Who's running for that? Your parents pay for Catholic school for all three years? Yeah, they both went to Catholic school. I gotta say the public school, I don't know the public school system in Wilmington, Delaware. Probably ain't great. Right. I'm assuming. I don't know. I think the district I was in specifically, probably not great. Uh huh. But it's got some good. I mean, public school still seems scary to me.
Starting point is 00:12:55 You're you're you're you draw me in any public school right now. I'd fucking yeah, I'm getting my ass beat as an adult. Sure. I'm going to act like a cop. He's over at Grover Cleveland High School That's pretty good What were the vacations like we did Disney? Okay number of times really yeah Yeah, that's probably why we were stuck in that shared driveway We could have probably moved on up if we cut Disney down to half who was the Disney fam um
Starting point is 00:13:23 As like a parent I have a guess probably okay the fact that they there's a 10-year gap in kids It's like each what you like they at some point like well We got to take John now, and then we have to take Bethany now that she's older and can enjoy it Yeah, but no we were we were going like We forgot one for high school. We definitely all remember going at least five times Yeah, even my little dude. I probably have been to Disney World I went for high school graduation. We definitely all remember going at least five times. Five times? Yeah, even my little... Dude, I probably have been to Disney World 10 or 12 times.
Starting point is 00:13:50 What? Not creative, I guess. We went to the beach, too. Dewey Beach, Rehoboth Beach, those were our low-key... Your low-key weekend getaways or whatever. So almost every summer you went to Disney? No, no. Maybe every every other maybe every third summer How long are you going?
Starting point is 00:14:09 for a week Maybe a week. Is it just you the immediate family? would you take your grandparents or your cousins or anything like that at one point my grandparents had a Condo down there a timeshare maybe okay. Oh, no, I haven't said that out loud yet chair, maybe. Okay. Oh, no. I haven't said that out loud yet. Garbage. So at some point, the grandparents were there, my mom's parents. Mostly it would be us.
Starting point is 00:14:30 We would stay. They would do it nice. We'd stay at the Polynesian. So you'd stay on campus. Yeah. As they call it. On the monorail. Really? All right. That's an expensive trip. It is. You throw in Catholic school in that, plus all the stuff for the dreads. You want that Santa Cruz sticker? That. It is. You throw in Catholic school in that, plus all the stuff for the dreads.
Starting point is 00:14:45 You weren't, that's in a cruise sticker. That's in a cruise sticker. You weren't driving down to Florida, right? You were flying. No, we never did that, we always flew. Okay. What was the first time you were on a plane? Do you remember?
Starting point is 00:14:54 First time I was on a plane was probably to go to Florida. Yeah. Maybe before kindergarten, but I remember doing it in kindergarten. No kidding. Wow, this is, I never said this out loud either. One time my dad took me to Disney World, just me and him.
Starting point is 00:15:08 What? So he could buy a lottery ticket in Florida because the jackpot was so high. That's a guy. That's a guy. What, putting it all, talking about laying it all on the line. I think Plan B was selling you.
Starting point is 00:15:20 That's crazy. That's nuts. Do fly down for a lottery ticket. Yeah, I read that. How come the other kids didn't go? Uh, the my mom was probably pregnant. I was in kindergarten. So you can miss color day or whatever, you know?
Starting point is 00:15:34 Sure. But my older sister was probably in like fifth grade, so she's not going to get taken out of school. This was during school. Yeah. Pretty cool little trip for little John. How long was it? A short one? Or short one or you do I think like two nights Go down by the ticket could have just been one night hit and then we went to Magic Kingdom for one day. Yeah
Starting point is 00:15:53 That's not dude. That's a level of did he wait a level of That's a level of trash that's like let's go. We're leaving it kind of I That's a level of trash that's like let's go we're leaving it kind of I mean we used to do it obviously like front living in outside of Philadelphia We would do it you go to Jersey if there was a big jackpot or whatever Get out of school to take him to Jersey Go we're going to Trenton. How does he even hear about that like on the news? They're probably talking about Yeah, of course cuz like I guess like the mega millions in Powerball were specific states back then.
Starting point is 00:16:28 You know what I mean? Yeah, but I would have to argue you could have. So the mega millions and the Powerball. Why don't you have your grandparents buy him a ticket down there? That fucking condo folded years before that. I just try to get the condo back. It wasn't the time of the timeshare. Right. Wrong time of year, but But those powerball knows mega millions they were like 13 or 11 different states all combined I'm sure he could have gotten a mega millions to get closer there or whatever it was probably gonna like driven to Virginia
Starting point is 00:16:58 Sure, it's in Florida. We could take Little birds one stone. Yeah, how do you pitch that to your mom? I don't know. I'm going to come back with $400 million.

We were coming home from the beach and I saw everybody at the football field at the park by my house I was like, I think I'm supposed to be a football practice Ran over there with my chain wallet and cargo shorts big skateboarder already at the time because back then I don't know if it does now Skateboarders in sports did not mix No, it was like one guy in each school who walked in both world all my friends skateboarded
Starting point is 00:24:04 But they also all played really all the sports yeah And and the first day practice the guy one of the coaches was like who's left-handed and I was like me And he was like you're the quarterback so I have no idea what logic that is it's not baseball It's not like I'm throwing a right-handers. You know I don't think I threw a single fucking pass that season Who's a southpaw a lot of QB sneaks? Found my way into the zone Did you do this in high school? Were you playing sports in high school? a single fucking pass that season. Who's the southpaw? A lot of QB sneaks. A lot of touch points. I found my way into the zone.

Starting point is 00:24:40 And then I played baseball till senior year. And then I quit midseason after the coach put in a five footer over me at first base and I was like, he might be making contact with the ball, but DH for him. Come on, let me play the field. He might be making contact with the... Listen, you can't take that away from guys hitting 333. Are we skateboarding this whole time? Skateboarding from third or fourth grade till seventh or eighth grade whenever we'd started. Yeah. And then you were done with the skateboarding?
Starting point is 00:25:08 I picked it back up in high school and college a little bit but was not skateboarding. What was your dad filming your promo tapes? I was probably like 10. You were trying to get a sponsor, you were doing a sponsor tape at 10 years old? Some company was doing like an open call. Sure, like a local skate shop? No, I was, I think it was like somebody that you see in a CCS magazine and did you have some skills could you do tricks? Yeah?
