Starting point is 00:07:17 man I was my sister used to go to the music camp during the summer so Wilkesbury music camp at I think the college and it's actually like a procedure there's some nice colleges up there I think yeah there's some nice colleges up there but again it's like the people that live by the college are fucking trash right right and I've performed in Mohegan Sun so who knows I got a weird sliver of what's out there straight up Chernobyl USA oh yeah mutants fucking sucking down six and with oxygen tank back which crazy thing is back in the day in the 50s and 60s the 40s whatever it was a powerhouse it
Starting point is 00:07:51 was a fucking huge bottling industry huge train industry huge trucking industry coal was huge up there it was all nice it bragging you sound like a narrator of a documentary for Wilkesbury and a certain element it was a bastion of americana bottles as far as the eye can see white faces everywhere and then these hormones development yeah then it all just went downhill fucking PVC god damn Asians and their better products the whole US PVC pipe so crazy that we literally bombed the competition the Germans and the Japanese back into the stone age during World War two it took them like 20 years 15 years to come back
Starting point is 00:08:35 and my god thanks for that speed but they gave us a tough time rebuilding what the 80s were alright it was all worth it it was all worth it just for the fucking in every capacity I mean it looked cool in the movies I didn't get to experience it but it looked like wide open it looked like a while while it was fucking nice sleeping good under the watch the line Ronald Reagan little fat kid Uncle Hank in his crib vice president Bush that's great yes Wilkesbury is trash but my dad he was stationed at the Voka for a long time and they had like things there you know
Starting point is 00:09:17 what I mean like they had like trucks and stuff like that and I remember him taking us to work and me and my brother literally playing around like munitions crates yeah like just like they twisted the things and turning them and all itself climbing over things it was awesome that's fun when you realize the things that you considered normal in your childhood yeah you know we get a chance to bounce everything that's got that's happened to us off of people yeah and that helps I don't know about you but it helps me kind of you know under a way what's normal and what's fucked up of course that's well that's kind of
Starting point is 00:09:48 where this came from so there's like a game there's like a 20 question we'll play at the end it's but that's kind of where this came from like we realized like oh we're all fucking trash yeah you know what I mean like you think I'm like I'm alright and I took back I'm like I grew up driving a forklift as a kid right for fun I'm like I'm fucking garbage you ever spent an extended amount of time on a high reach or a forklift you're fucking trash didn't everybody go to a with that when they were for didn't they what did you start working was your first job 15 I think or maybe a little early 15 I think I bus
Starting point is 00:10:19 boy bus boys always they go to go to yeah and then I also did that's the gateway in the garbage you see you see like as you've never been behind the scenes at a restaurant before then all of a sudden you got the slop plates and all you fucking you see how people really you make coleslaw you want to fuck that you recognize exactly what a restaurant is yeah it is barely a kitchen oh yeah yeah yeah folks you've never made coleslaw you're fucking garbage yeah yeah you just massage mayonnaise and char or carved lettuce that you remember this week he slicer remember the sweet waitress that you
Starting point is 00:10:53 thought was so nice when you're a little kid and you get a job at the place and you see what she's really like scratch off lottery tickets change you realize the owner has been putting out cigars in her pussy for the last two and a half yeah cranking Marlboro five thousands out back just like you want one sweet hot I'm like I'm 12 I guess yeah pass it over I remember working with older waitresses like that and they would just come in in a bed like career waitresses yeah there's a there's the attitude of a career waitress that will never ever I might answer career bartender and you get it yeah oh for sure I mean as a
Starting point is 00:11:23 career comedian oh yeah yeah yeah you see where this could go of course and like being a career waitress at a place where you're about to like maybe clear a hundred on a good night if you do that like that's that's a mindset of a comedian that is doing a hundred dollar road of course yeah yeah yeah it's the same thing well there's also there's like a there's like the big bubble or it's like the the career waitresses is the tail end of that is tough you know what I mean because it's typically a good-looking chick in her 20s there and she's just like yeah dude they're man looks like the lady that did the
Starting point is 00:11:54 cigarettes in the commercial some of her fingers are full length most of them aren't yeah by the end of it yeah but in the beginning do they're making like I'm doing a Tartuffo they're making like you know they're making like twelve hundred bucks a weekend cash and they're like this it's like stripper money you know what I mean all of a sudden they like it lasts a little longer than a stripper because they're like in your 30s and 40s but then at some point you're just this 50 year old person trying to make a hundred bucks like I'm like you know
Starting point is 00:12:23 Wingnight or something like that it's tough and their advice is unforgiving they don't hold any punches just like yeah you know so whatever you're thinking right now that's not it they're like just know like it's gonna be a life of her yeah for life of hell they're like like you know how people in movies they show you falling down a cliff and it's hot yeah and then you're at the bottom life is there's no bottom yeah exactly there's no bottom you're just tumbling forever falling and hitting every rock just like you know fucking conhead bill fucking car insurance bill just fucking whacking

Starting point is 00:27:40 with sexuality that it's like you don't even like yeah that's how it always was for me and then like I did I went to them I'm like this is yeah my brain my the two sides of my brain were like this this is my family especially man I'm trying to like talk about it on stage and I don't know if I can get fully get across the potency of the discomfort whenever anything sex would be brought up it just like it felt like a molestation yeah I remember like anytime like there would be like a sex scene on TV or something I'd be like oh like change a channel or like oh dude you feel the tension in my sister's bra and
Starting point is 00:28:15 came and freaked out she was wearing it I don't ever remember like I know that being Catholic fucked me up I know it you know what I mean and being Irish but I can't really pinpoint where like I don't remember and that that is the most Irish Catholic thing you saying you don't remember like I don't remember a priest saying sex is wrong I don't remember it's all the like you know kind of like how they say like microaggressions it's all these little things over top subconscious all over time we're like your parents have never been like I've never mentioned sex and anytime they did or like something came
Starting point is 00:28:54 up they would all look away or change the subject so it's like all these little things where that you know just kind of reinforce that that meant even even if it's even if it's presented as like a secret thing like like you know whatever like we can talk about even if they should talk about it but like you know out of public view that's a that's like a subconscious shaming that it shouldn't be spoken about yeah yeah yeah taboo yeah of course and I think I'm more fucked up than I realized yeah you totally are dude what the fuck you think you're even close to normal is crazy the only thing specific I remember and this
