There's a little fat kid who's famous that he came with my podcast. He's famous for being fat and he goes like this. That's it. And that's it.

And he goes, hands off to Twizzler. Oh, dude, coyote, you got to stop. He goes, what's the next mountain to climb, Twizzler? We had a certain little person on our podcast.

Thank you for tuning in. We love you. We're so excited for our guest today. We have the one, the only
Starting point is 00:03:26 Mark Norman and the fantastic, the funny, Sean Murphy. I don't, I've, you're so funny, seen you around for so long. Don't know much about you. Why Don't we tell us a bit about yourself? Please.
Starting point is 00:03:41 And let's start with what is your body count. Oh, a solid four? Whoa. Does oral count to Bill Clinton rules or not? No. No, okay. No, wait, wait. I got oral three times today.
Starting point is 00:03:57 If you get oral, is that being celibate? God, you're such a crazy person. Go ahead. No, ask a fucking question. That's a good question. I don't know that either. Thank you. Oral is celibate.
Starting point is 00:04:07 because you're not fucking. If you... You know what? You're both sick. Celibacy to me is no penis and vaginal or anal sex. Agreed. If you make out and you both jerk each other off. That means that lesbians are celibate.
Starting point is 00:04:21 I would say they are. Wow. They are virgin. Yes. Yeah. They don't even fuck. They just move in with each other in two days. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:28 That is true. That is fair. Wait, there's a phrase for lesbians where... You hauling. You hauling. Lesbian bed death. That's it. Lesbian bed death.
Starting point is 00:04:37 My friend Morgan goes through that. They stop having sex immediately because they're women. No one initiates. It's lucky for me having gay moms because you just wait for the bed death to happen because in the beginning the way they fuck is so aggressive and loud. So you're just like, please let the bed death. Strap on? Just in the beginning.
Starting point is 00:04:53 Strap in. It's women, right? It's two women. There's not one man grunting. It's two people being like, yeah. You know what I mean? And it's a lot. And you're like, please, I hope you guys get overly comfortable and become sisters quick.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Oh, yuckaroo. Yeah. Can we get a photo of these hoars? My mom? Yeah. I'd love to see these fat cows, scissoring. No. They're all very attractive.
Starting point is 00:05:19 Oh, really? Yeah. Come on. What happened to you? I know. Okay. We're joking around. Coyote.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Somebody had to be the man of the family. That's true. It explains the jacket. Yeah. And demeanor. And face and hair. And face it. She has gotten demeanors.

Starting point is 00:07:11 There's so many. And they put you to sleep. That lulls you to sleep? Yeah, it does. I mean, I did fuck up the other day and put one on where I woke up to like, I let them leave on Thai. And I was like, oh my God. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:21 But typically they're quite boring and good. But the ovens are soothing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There's some people getting shot rhythmically. Not a Jew. Believe it or not.

Starting point is 00:07:37 I know. I look like a Jew, but I get no benefits of. Well, they're not having a great run at the moment. I know, but I get all that negative and I can't control the weather or any of that. Let's check these horns. Here's the deal with Shawnee started in Buffalo, as did I. Whoa. Yeah, that's right.
Starting point is 00:07:55 He was in the class above me. No, I originally started in Buffalo for three months and then moved to Nashville where I did it for a year. We were a little rambling man.

Starting point is 00:08:28 Was she fat then also? Yeah. Was she fatter than now? Yeah. There you go. Because I don't know if that's possible. To be fatter than nail? Yeah, where I would go to Buffalo, I'd get on stage.
Starting point is 00:08:43 I would tell about my night last night and then four people would come up after me and be like, hey, I think you got raped last night. And I'm really sorry. And I'd be like, oh, shit. Because I was just blacking out fucking people, then getting on stage and talking about it. It was. Oh, no. Did you start out in comedy being like, this is like my therapy.
Starting point is 00:08:57 Wait, is she one of your four? Probably. Did you guys bang in Buffalo? Whoa. Whoa. Did you know you had a thing for great. Fat people. Is she a great big fat person?

Starting point is 00:09:28 Please get it all out. Wait, does that? Because I have a buddy whose wife's name is the same as his mom. And that would freak me. But to be with someone that looks like, because like I, the guys I'm with, they never, I've never been with a guy that looks like me, but a lot of gay guys find a guy that looks like that.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Right, right. They call that mirroring. I dated Jack, which is my dad's name. And I would yell his name out. Yeah, but you would have fucked your dad. Yeah, totally. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:22:37 It gets a big applause. And more of like, oh, like, it's over. And then there's like quiet. I go, hey, actually, I missed some of that. Can you rewind and do it again? It gets like a huge pop. 30 seconds later, he goes, hey, let's hold up. That's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Why don't you do that great act out again, but do it to the crowd instead of to camera? And everyone's like, what? And then he did, and the crowd was like, and I'm like, I think I'm living in an alternate time. Yeah, that's fucked up. This is crazy. It seems miserable.
Starting point is 00:23:06 It seems like a podcast that's like scripted. Yes. That's exactly what it is with a live audience. Yeah. So you have a new special, long story thin. Where'd that come from? Do you want me to tell you about my inspiration? Dude, I was on with Ben Glebe.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Do you know him? He was like, because they told us beforehand, they're like, yeah, feel free to add tags or like, you know, say whatever. And he was just like attacking us. Like, oh, yeah, I bet that happened. And I'm like, dude, he said something. And it caught me soft guard out loud. I go, I wasn't expecting you to be mean.
Starting point is 00:23:39 I don't have a response for TV. I never was like, what? Like, dude, it shook me. And I got him at the end with a fucking hammer. Good for you. Well, that would be a better show. I beat him with a hammer in the way. Oh, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:23:53 No, no, no, I hit him with the line at the end. The old Pelosi's husband. Pop, and then I fucking stormed out. I was like, this sucked. That would be a better show, just comics ballbusting in a circle. Yeah. You call it, like, tough crowd. Tough crowd.
Starting point is 00:24:06 Hey, that's a good idea. Somebody pitched that. I literally thought you were getting that pen to write down close in a hour. You're like, no one run it's out. I got to take this. I loved it. I loved it. It was, I thought that was so fun.
Starting point is 00:24:16 It's not exactly right because it's Oppenheimer, not openheimer, but hey. Oh, he pronounced it, Oppenheimer. Okay, okay. It's a boss to make the joke. Yeah, it's like a forced rhyme. It's like that old joke, hey, I got a, with the black guy, why do you wear a suit to vasectomy?
Starting point is 00:24:29 Why? Because if I'm going to be impotent, I'm going to look impotent. Oh, that rules. That's not mine. That's great. That's an old Byron Allen joke. That is awesome.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Yeah. I'm going to be, right. Wait, that's a Byron Allen joke? No, I'm joking. But that joke is in, it's in a soul man. I've seen the movie Soul Man, where he's a full board? Blackface to get a scholarship.
Starting point is 00:24:51 That's one of your Christmas movies. Wasn't James, wasn't James Earl Jones in that? He was. Everybody co-signed it at the time. It was a huge hit. Actually, it has a message. It had a message.
Starting point is 00:25:01 It was like D-EI in the 80s. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, me and Reggie Conquest before the pandemic, we did something for the Paramount Network where we had to pick, like, one movie over another. And I think I picked trading places over, like, one of his movies. But the one thing we agreed on was it the blackface? was funny and we should bring it back.
Starting point is 00:25:22 And Andrews there were like, no, we're not doing anything with that. And then we got the last laugh because that network dissolved. That's great. I got a fun Reggie story. Oh, yes. I love Reggie. He's a big fat barrel of fun.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Oh, can you? I don't know what that is. Somebody, that's Byron Allen at the door. I think I have a chewy order. Anyway, go ahead. Oh, nice. So we did one of those Shane weekends where he let you open for him in an arena It's a lot of fun and whatever.
Starting point is 00:25:51 So Reggie was there, and Reggie was like, I'm not going to lie to you. I've never done an arena. I'm kind of freaking out. I'm nervous. What jokes should I do? How should I do them? Blah, blah, blah. We were all like, you're going to be great.
Starting point is 00:26:00 It's fine. And he's like, I'm freaking out. I'm so scared. So then. Classic Reggie burp. Yeah. So then they start the show, the host, I can't remember who was hosting, but he brings on Reggie.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Reggie's trembling, 25,000 people, Minneapolis, wherever we were. He goes up and he goes, Hey guys, I'm from Philly. Boo! 25,000 people are booing the guy. He was so scared to go on. Now he's getting booed.
Starting point is 00:26:28 His worst nightmare is happening in real time. That rolls. And then he goes, what the fuck, guys? Shane's from Philly too. And then they boo again. Oh my God. And then he did great. He pulled out of it and it was funny.
Starting point is 00:26:40 It was fun to watch the guy who was terrified. Get booed in an arena. In the movie that we were in, he was in and is this thing on and they gave him the name Dan. And he couldn't believe it because his nickname all throughout high school was Dan, which was short of, was dumb-ass N-word. Oh, that's great.
Starting point is 00:27:00 Dumb-ass-N-Word. He was like getting a little retramatized. Everybody would be like, Dan, and he'd be like, all right. That's awesome. So your name in high school nickname was Pog. Yeah. Okay. Plus.
Starting point is 00:27:11 Fat-ass white girl. There we go. Pog. Pog. You never go to Pog? Pogs? You don't know Pogs? Fat-ass white girls?
Starting point is 00:27:18 Alexis Tets. Texas. Oh, remember Tommy, the girl I dated? She's a pog. Really? She's, like, known for being a pog. Pogs are hot. Pogs are great.
Starting point is 00:27:26 My nickname was Tini, because one of my last names is Cozantini. My nickname was Tini Cozantini because I wasn't Tiny. Teeny. Oh, like Little John. Right, exactly. I had an aunt tiny and my friends in college called me Uncle Tiny. And I don't like that. My wife calls me.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Dude, Reggie got me in trouble. Maybe we might, I don't know, we could add this later, whatever. But years ago at we were all hanging out. And they like Reggie Monroe, Derek, Dave. And I think Jordan Fisher were intentionally trying to get me to say the N word. And they were just like going in on me like just ripping me apart. And I was like, I'm not going to do it. This was a common pastime.
Starting point is 00:28:06 Yes. I grew up in a pretty black area. That was my whole childhood. Yes. And then they hit me with something like so vile. I was like, you're acting like a bunch of fucking. And I said it. And we all laughed.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Ha, ha, ha. High five, and then Reggie sits in on Michael Chase's sketch show. And they're like, what are some ideas or sketches? And he's like, oh, one time we all forced Ian finance to save the network. And we could do a sketch about that. And it room went silent. And Yalb was like, I like Ian, so I'm going to act like we didn't hear that. And then I saw Chey and he goes, so I heard you used to have some fun with the fellas.
Starting point is 00:28:41 And I was like, no, what are you lying about? Well, they forced you. I know. But also, that is a funny sketch. That is a funny sketch. I've had a funny sketch idea about, because Sam J gave me the Mward pass, and it'd be so funny to me to, like, use it. I never used it.
Starting point is 00:28:56 You just believed that. Around her, and it'd be so funny to, like, see me use it with a bunch of guys. They're stomping me out, and I'm just like, no, it's Sam J, from pause. Like, I'm trying to explain it. I'm flagrant, and they posted a clip of me saying that sometimes I call my dog the N-word with a soft A, and they, like, put it up, and just two hours later it was gone. Oh, man. That's a fun word.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Come on. Alone? Alone in the shower. Yeah. She's being cool as hell. Oh, I thought you meant the fun word is alone. I was like, no. No, when you're alone with your dog and she's being cool?
Starting point is 00:29:36 What word? Ninja. Oh, ha. I say nincompoop. Come on, my nincom. Let's open the text messages, Ian. Oh, let's not do that. Man, you can see all our text threads.
Starting point is 00:29:49 We'd all be ruined. Dude, I got a glimpse into black comic group chat. Really awesome. Lay it on me. Alex English showed it to me. It is really incredible. He's ripping. So funny.
Starting point is 00:30:02 Yeah. He's underrated, I think. Alex is underrated. What's it? Like gossip? Just the best, though. Like the best rows for every comic, just every clip that you could ever imagine. Just getting completely destroyed.
Starting point is 00:30:14 We used to all the friends from Philly used to have a group chat. And it got dissolved in 2016 because one of our friends was like, look, with everything going on with Trump, like, we need our own space. We used to call it whites and blacks. And we would all go to movies together and we would like yell at the screen. We go to like midnight movies and yell at the screen. And it was like very fun. And one time there was two people up front and everyone's yelling and being loud. And my like white, like polite was like, guys, I think we're ruining.
Starting point is 00:30:43 And then they walked up and I was like, see, I'm fucking right. and they go, hey, can we join you guys? And it was awesome. But we used to rip into each other all the time. Yamanika one time hit me with, she said I had the hairline of a rattlesnake. And it was like the fucking best. We used to take our head shots and rip each other.
Starting point is 00:31:00 And then one of them, who doesn't even hang out anymore? She lives in L.A. She was like, we need our own space. Sorry. And she made everyone leave the group chat. And the group got like dissolved after that. But it was like the most fun, like ripping apart. You know who I hear is queen of the group chat?
Starting point is 00:31:16 May. Really? Yeah. Really? Yep. Of the black group chat? No, no. That's so funny.
Starting point is 00:31:23 I won't allow her anywhere near that. Oh, the YN's group chat? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, the dance. Yeah. I get secondhand May content. Really?
Starting point is 00:31:32 Wow, I got to let her know. She'll appreciate that. That's great. And he'll be chuckling and I'll be like, what was it? And he'll be like, May I just said this. I'm like, that's really good. She's very irreverent behind the scenes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:42 If I may say so myself, which I like it a woman. Yeah. Yeah, it's really nice. Nothing worse than a girl you date and you say something. They're like, geez, okay, wow. Yeah, or they're like, people are people. They're doing their best. That's why in my dating profile off the rip, it says height 9-11.
Starting point is 00:31:57 Yes. If you don't like that, fuck you. Yeah, nothing worse. And you also don't want to say it right. No, no, no, no. Keep that a secret. Dude, for the, for the comics unleashed, they made us take mug shots. And I didn't know that with like the coffee mug.
Starting point is 00:32:11 And I didn't know. This sounds really bad. Oh, you have no idea. It's crazy. You got to watch. I'm shocked you did it. And I... You have to.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Yeah, it's like a... Whatever. But I'm glad I did it. It's to have that experience. But they didn't... On the thing, they didn't have height. They added that at the end and they put my height like under 5'5. I'm getting one of my friends to photoshop me taller.
Starting point is 00:32:35 How tall? Oh, my God, Ian. What? Okay, fine. I won't. How tall are you? I'm tall enough. It's 5.8.
Starting point is 00:32:42 5.7 and a half. Everyone says 5.8. I've noticed. I'm 5, 7 and a half. Rogan says 5-8, too. And I'm like, what? He's a winky guy. I'm not 5-8.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Are you taller than Rogan, you think? Yeah. Yeah, I think you are. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'm five. Dude, you know what I do not do when people at meet and greets when they are taller and they, like, lean down? I'm like, no, no, no, stand straight. I am who I am.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Own it. Well, it's also, it looks worse. You're saying to be like, look, look, you, that. What I've started to do is get a chair and people are tall. I'm talking me. I stand on the chair. So I'm talking about it. How about when you have handicapped people at the meet and greet and you never know fully what to do?
Starting point is 00:33:19 I sit on their lap. I sit on their lap. I use their leg as a phone. I let them chew my hand. Use their dead foot as a phone. It's not getting service. I had the full on special needs guy. I did a show in Des Moines last weekend and a guy went, something, something.
Starting point is 00:33:34 And I said, dude, come on. You're heckling me or you're interrupting me. And he goes, puzzles. And I was like, okay. Wow. Now are you faking special needs or is this a real thing? And one guy in the back goes, he's been doing this all night because I didn't watch the opener. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:48 And so then I'm like, okay, sir, you have to cool it. And he's like, you cool it. I'm like, I don't know what to do because you can't shut him down and go, hey, you downsy, shut the fuck up. But you also want him to shut up. Yeah. No one had like a muzzle.

And I was like, it's a kind of, I was like, you have a girl with you who can't speak English. So he has no idea that you're such a loser doing these things culturally. And I was like, which is a little bit pedophile like that you're just dating this girl. I don't know what he said.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Sure, sure. And then, what's her face? What is her... Leslie Jones got on stage and just ripped him the fuck bar all over again. I would hate to get yelled at by that lady. It was awesome. I mean, she was screaming in his face. It was sick.

Starting point is 00:41:20 Good job. Thank you. Good for him. Well done. I know it was one of those poor ones. Is he your number one crush? Number one crush? Vinci.

Starting point is 00:41:37 Wedding Crashers, obviously, is a ideal. Sure. But have you met him? I accidentally, yeah, I pulled up outside of Zanis one time and I was in my truck and I short-circuited and I cat-called him really bad. Whoa. And it was very embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:41:50 How'd you cat-combe? What'd you say? Bro, I was like, hey, what's up? And he was like, how's it going? And I was like, I'm doing a lot better now. And he was like, okay. Dude. Bro, it was crazy.
Starting point is 00:42:02 And then I was like, I was like, you look really good. And he was like, thanks. And then I was like, you have to drive away right now. Jordan, this is crazy. And then I hit a red light two feet in front of my truck. It was just like, stop there. Vince is like, I can't believe I met Josh Blue. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:42:16 All right. That's really cool. He's a cool dude. Man. He's in tires. Is he single? That's right. No.
Starting point is 00:42:25 I don't know about this. He's a life. Okay. Yeah. I shot my shot with Meg the Stallion. Wow. What were you thinking? About it?
Starting point is 00:42:34 About me? I have a whole bit about when people are like, I'm not going to go to AA because all that God shit. You know when people say that? They're like, I'm not religious. And I'm like, you blacked out and DMed Meg and the stallion last night. You do believe in miracles. Oh, I didn't black out.
Starting point is 00:42:47 I was sober. I know, I know. January 1st, 2024. It's worse. They're sober. I DM turned said, Meg, I love you. No one better. No one better.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Oh. You know how many of those she gets a day? I don't know why. Said it like that. It's worse than the N-word. I panicked. Damn. I shouldn't.
Starting point is 00:43:02 What would have been a good thing? I got a DM from a guy the other day that said, hey, I just want you to know that I recognize that you have a really incredible collection of pants, and that made me want to hit him up. Whoa. It was an acute observation. I do have amazing pants. You got to go outside.
Starting point is 00:43:17 Yeah. Yeah. You got to get creative. What if he complimented the jacket? It's obviously an incredible jacket. But noticing the pants is pretty acute. Like one guy said I had a large lung capacity because my ribs are so big, and I said, thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:43:30 That is terrible, hold my breath for some time. That is serial killer level recognition of something about you. One guy said, I see that you have small pores. No. That's a gay man. What? Coors? Come on.
Starting point is 00:43:41 These are all good. You like all three of these? Like a poor. I like particular things. What I don't like is when people say, hey, I understand that you're actively trying to be a hideous ghoul, but I know that you're secretly attractive. And I'm like, I try and be attractive every single day. Wow. That I've got a lot.
Starting point is 00:43:57 It seems like you like when people come in with almost like a friendship vibe. Like these are like compliments, but they're not relationship compliments. What? So, bud. Yeah, totally. Has to be friend vibe first. You can't come in with any suave shit. It makes me sick to my stomach and I'll call you a little.
Starting point is 00:44:15 I recently got hi, I love you. And I was like, oh, I love you too. Let's hang out. Wait, you got no response from. Meg? Still waiting. Come on. Did it say right?
Starting point is 00:44:28 Was it red? No. All right. She doesn't run her own shit. I'm a message again. Yeah. No, but I've talked about how like I love her and someone gave me a, oh, I should get it upstairs. So we have Devine from John Waters and I have a meg the stallion candle of this that I should get and I will not now.
Starting point is 00:44:49 All right. You can fit that in your ass. Similar. Boop? I don't know. Something about it. Uniquely their own. I do like a mannish.
Starting point is 00:44:58 I know you do. Boy. Manish boy. Shout out. Buddy. Muddy Waters. It's a Muddywater song covered by Jimmy Hendricks. Sorry. Sorry. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:45:10 How did you grow up skateboarding? But then you never, like, got a part of that. Did you go to, like, punk shows and stuff? Because I feel like you skateboarded and then didn't do, like, the next step, like punk shows, hardcore shows. I like punk. I just didn't have any money. I couldn't go to shows or anything. So I would just skate all day and then go home.
Starting point is 00:45:27 That's so cool that you're so good at skateboarding. I was. I suck now. You can still do. Huh? Are you skateboarding? I tried and then I got injured and I didn't do it again. I tried as an adult at like 40. Oh, it's hard.
Starting point is 00:45:40 Jason Ellis taught me and I dropped. Tony Hawk and Jason Ellis taught me how to drop in on a quarter pipe and I kept crashing over and over and then I did it. And it was amazing. Tony Hawk hugged me. It was like, I'm proud of you. That was incredible. What a moment. Andy Anderson was there and it was such a moment.
Starting point is 00:45:55 He was supportive and great. It was so incredible that when they went to lunch, I stuck around to skate more to do it again to be like, be like, Tony, I did it. And that's when I crashed and tore my labrum. I haven't skated since because I wanted one more hug. I'd love to hear them at lunch. Imagine, do you see that retard out there? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:15 Yeah, yeah, yeah, I need a good. Each one of them has one of his hands and good. Yeah, right. Here's a helmet. But you're being modest because I've seen you skate recently and you can still like do. Well, that's an old video. That's probably a couple years old. But yeah, that's all I did all day from like 9 a.m.
Starting point is 00:46:33 to 9 at night. You can get pretty good if you just do it for 12 hours. Yeah. You're not on the moped anymore, right? No, I got stolen. Mine too. Really? Crazy.
Starting point is 00:46:43 You got a hog? I think it got impounded, honestly. Mine got impounded a few times. Yeah, I had the little rebel. Uh-huh. The little Honda. But now you can't do it. You have a father.
Starting point is 00:46:53 Ah. I bought a new one. It's yours. Really? It's just too cold right now. Yeah. But mine got stolen. I found it and stole it back.
Starting point is 00:47:00 How did my life? How'd you do that? Over my child. So I was out one night I was doing a gig somewhere And I had a few drinks in me And my friend goes He knew it got stolen
Starting point is 00:47:12 Because I made a big deal out of it And he goes hey I think I see your bike in Chinatown Under a like a tarp And I said take a photo And he took a photo And I was like that's my bike We all went down there A friend of mine's mechanic
Starting point is 00:47:23 He had bolt cutters It was all chained up like Peewee's big adventure We undid it We broke all the chains And I rode it home That's awesome. That would have been so cool right before you rode it home, you threw smoke bombs on the ground because you were in Chinatown.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Right. And you just went away. But then I brought it home and it got impounded. Really? Yeah, my got, and I didn't get it out. You never got yours out. I got it out a few times,
Starting point is 00:47:47 but then I realized I'm spending way more than I, the bike was worth. But when you guys were riding in the city, were you riding in between cars and like zigzagging? Yeah, you have to. I feel like I would do that. And that's too dangerous for me, even though I ride a bicycle.
Starting point is 00:48:01 Did you ever crash? I like dropped it but never anything bad. Oh really? Are you getting a second one now? No, after Kenny I stopped. After Kenny DeForest. Oh, right. It's too crazy.
Starting point is 00:48:13 Yeah. It's just like in the amount of times that were close calls and I'd be like, and then I was just like, yeah, I don't need my family gathered around my limp body. It's too fucked up. Yeah. And I was very depressed when I was riding it. And then I started not hating my life. And I was like, yeah, I don't need to be doing that.
Starting point is 00:48:27 That's a good point. See, I ride a bicycle, but I would be afraid on the road. Because, dude, we were, so I was opening for bird. I forget what town, but all these motorcycle people came afterwards. And I forget your names, but thanks for letting us ride them. And they trusted me to ride one of their bikes with like these super high. Oh, yeah. And I was like, yeah, I've ruined a butt.
Starting point is 00:48:47 The last time I wrote a motorcycle was like, yeah, I don't know. And then I like started it was like, eh, er, her. And I almost crashed. I was like, get off. I was like, okay, it's all right. Oh, man. Yeah, it's like pee-wee. You knock them all over.
Starting point is 00:49:01 Yeah. That's scary. Yeah, it's too scary. Whoever, if you're riding bikes out there, God bless you. You were stronger than nine. People die constantly, but yet people keep getting on hogs. Yeah. It just keeps...
Starting point is 00:49:11 Lev fur's got a big fat hog. And a motorcycle. There you go. Yeah. No, left fur is big fat. He'll be fine if he falls off, though. Oh, good point. Does he still ride it?
Starting point is 00:49:22 He's a Michelin man. Does he still ride it? I see him pull up a stand. He has a massive motorcycle. Huge. Huge. Huge amount of Cs. It's crazy.
Starting point is 00:49:31 And he went from not riding too. It would scare me. It's not that you've been on mine. I've driven you on mine. I know. Yeah. But I would be scared of having so much power underneath me. And then each day being like, I'm going to go and do even more risky like.
Starting point is 00:49:48 Yeah. And everything. I fell off mine. I got knocked out. Oh. It was bad. Construction workers pulled me off onto the sidewalk. It was 8th Avenue.
Starting point is 00:49:56 It was very embarrassing. Off the street. Off the motor end, though? Yeah. They brought me in the moped. This is probably like 2020. What do you mean with their hands or with a piece of equipment? They just picked me up and moved me off.
Starting point is 00:50:08 You were unconscious? I was laying on the ground on 8th Avenue unconscious. Cars were honking. No helmet? No helmet. What the fuck? That's really dumb. 2020?
Starting point is 00:50:16 Something like that? 2019. I crashed. I got hit by a car on 2020 on my bike. When you get hit, there is a level of embarrassment, adrenaline, shame that people will come around to help you. You're like, no, no, no, I'm fine. Get away for me. And you're going home and you're like, I need medical care.
Starting point is 00:50:34 Yes, yes. It's kind of like when you walk into a glass wall and you're like, hey, everybody. Yeah. And it hurts so bad. But your pride is like, you're fine, you're fine. I'm like, oh, I'm good, I'm good. And you go in the bathroom where you're like, oh, God. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:46 Yeah, people are like, should we exchange insurance? I'm like, leave me alone. Everything's, it's like this weird embarrassment you feel. And then later, you're like, I deeply need care. I got punched my mom's car. And that was a similar. When? Oh, who's punching you?
Starting point is 00:51:00 I know. after a comedy show, some guy, he was, he just had underwear on. No, this was like 10 years ago. He just had underwear? Yeah, he was like drugged out and he saw me. He's like, I could probably fuck that guy up. And he just punched me. Oh, out of nowhere.
Starting point is 00:51:12 He just snuck you out of nowhere. Was this in New York? No, it's in Buffalo. Makes sense. Did he knock you out? I didn't get knocked out, but it sucks because you're lying on the ground and it's all those feelings. You're like, what did someone shoot me?
Starting point is 00:51:24 Because you'd even see a comment. See, like what happened? Oh, man, that's terrible. And then what's a schizo guy? He was like a schizo guy? Yeah. Who could hurt this guy? I know.
Starting point is 00:51:32 Come on. You poor thing. Came out of nowhere. He saw a guy that looked like a Muppet and he just wanted to go after you. You need to enact revenge. I think he's probably doing pretty bad. Yes. You need to find Raza Gould to train you in the hills and mountains and come back and take over this man.
Starting point is 00:51:49 Have you gotten any muggeries in New York? No, I never remember. I know you were mugged a lot. Grice. First year, I got mugged three times. Yeah. Well, I used to live way out in Brooklyn, like way out. Were you in like Crown Heights?
Starting point is 00:52:01 Past Crown Heights. Like right past Grandville. Brownsville's like way east. Crown Heights is like more south-middles. Exactly. And there's a big line called Eastern Parkway. And it's all Hasidic Jew and all like Caribbean Black. I lived on the black side.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Isn't it fun when you walk down Eastern Parkway and you can see it just getting more and more? Yes. Like on every bench it'll be like a lady reading a book and then it'll be like a person taking a little nap. Then it'll be like full crackhead shooting up and you can just see it get so bad. I taught a Megger Evers high for like one. one summer and that was like that's kind of by eastern parkwayish area yeah and that was uh that was like pretty gnarly the neighbor when i taught in brownso that's the only time i've ever been scared to walk around new york city really i feel scared of bushwick now really oh now you do yeah
Starting point is 00:52:46 it's all these like little weird dudes that are five six just punching women randomly really yeah wow i didn't know that you got like a soccer field right here this isn't bushwick this is in bushwick this is Williams work oh you go up five or six blocks and that's like the line of demarcation into Bushwick. This is a great area. The Morgan Stop is really fucked up. This isn't the Morgan Stop. I know, I know.
Starting point is 00:53:07 I'm just saying the Morgan Stop. The Morgan Stopps two stops away from you. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is good. This is nice. Thank you. Now, back to getting socked. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:17 What happened? Did the guy run away? The guy ran away, but some friends kind of got it. There we go. Yes. Really stood up for me. Good for you. Did they kill him?
Starting point is 00:53:27 I love that. I think he got, I think some people got some punches in. And then I think the cop showed up and then... What'd you do? Just stand over him and do your act? Really punish him. It's a long story, but it's a little thin. Pretty brutal.
Starting point is 00:53:41 I think I just laid on the ground, just holding my face. Dude, one time we were up in Boston and a buddy of ours, we were like coming out of 7-Eleven, and him and this guy were like jib-jabbing. And the guy just socks my friend. And we all just, like, descended. and I got up to it and the guy was on top of my friend hitting him
Starting point is 00:54:03 and in one swoop I grabbed the guy's hair and then just socked him like that and he like fell on the ground and the crowd cheered there was like a crowd and I went yeah and then some guy tackled me and just started beating the shit out of me and a cop pulled me out and goes you got to get out of here that was a clean hit
Starting point is 00:54:19 I'm letting you get away but more cops are coming and we just like ran off into the night wow I had a similar thing one time in New Orleans college days, this guy was chasing me because I fucked his car up on accident. It's a long story.
Starting point is 00:54:32 He's chasing me. I get into a car that was like on the street that was nice. Shut up. I got in the car to like hide from the guy. He was a huge guy. And it was his car. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:54:43 So he's doing the boop. He's doing the boop. The locks are going up and down and I'm in the middle just hitting them all down. Oh, shit. That's so funny. So eventually he's like, you fucking fucking. He goes and gets a cop.
Starting point is 00:54:53 And the cops's like, get out of his car. And I'm like, I'll get out. But tell him to back up. So he's like, all. I'd serve back up. You didn't know it was his car? I didn't know. I was just running up and down the street trying to get in the car doors.
Starting point is 00:55:03 That was lucky the cop was there. Crazy. Well, hold on. So I get out of the car and the guy's over here. I get out of the car feeling pretty good because I got out of it and the guy walks up, hits me. I fall to my knees. And then the cop's like, okay, okay. And then he cuffs me.
Starting point is 00:55:17 So he let the guy get one in. Really? Wow. That was street justice. That is crazy. That sucks to be the guy. Wait, when you were mugged in New York, did you get robbed? Bobbed every time?
Starting point is 00:55:28 Yeah. I fell asleep on the L drinking. Stupid. And I had the guy with the hands in the pockets and all that. And I woke up and I stood up quick and I hit my head on the bar. And I fell back down and the guy was like, see you later. And the door's closed. Just a Charlie Chaplin fell.
Starting point is 00:55:45 Benny Hill team songs playing. He's like, well, this was very easy. Thank you, sir. Second time, Hell's Kitchen. I was so drunk again after going to Rudy's. They used to have Dollar Beer night or whatever. So you go to Rudy's. You drink all night.
Starting point is 00:55:57 And I'm like bouncing off the walls, drunk, trying to get to a train. I was so tired. I said, let me just sleep in this little doorway right here. There was like a three step down doorway in an apartment. And I just kind of laid there and fell asleep. I wake up. A couple of guys are going through my shit. And I go, hey, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:56:12 And one guy goes, he's waking up. And he hit me. And I went out again. And they took everything. This is not being mugged. This is you mugging yourself. I guess so. This is you falling asleep in public.
Starting point is 00:56:22 That is crazy. Yeah, you weren't sock like this poor fellow. And you got to put yourself. All right. I got one more. Fell asleep on the train again. Fell asleep on the train. Woke up.
Starting point is 00:56:36 Fell asleep on the train woke up. I was robbing myself. I woke up. I went like four stops past mine. I go, ah, and I just jump up and got off the train. I was like, I'm not doing this again. I walk up the steps, and I'm like, I bet I could find my house. I put the headphones in.
Starting point is 00:56:49 I'm listening to like, you know, Billy Joel. And I'm walking down. And I see five guys on the corner shooting dice and listen to music out of a movie. It's 40s, the whole thing. So I crossed the street. This older guy is coming towards me, and he goes, give me that fucking radio. And I was so drunk, I go, it's not a radio. Because it was an iPod.
Starting point is 00:57:06 And he picks me up like this and turns me against a wall and just starts slamming me against the wall. An old guy? He was like a, probably like 55-year-old guy. Guys that I thought were going to rob me, help. So I'm punching the guy in mid-air. Those guys run over and beat the shit out of him. Nice. See, that'll teach you.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Yeah. And I grabbed my iPod. I said, thank you. and they're like kicking them in the face and I ran home. That's nice. Yeah. One time I was, this woman was like, I had no money and I needed to go into a motel. And I went in there and they're like, it's this much money. And I was like, oh, can I give you whatever this amount?
Starting point is 00:57:39 And this woman came in who had like full, she had a full parka zipped up. And she looked like a nice Midwestern lady. This was an Albany. And she was like, I'll pay for this young lady's hotel or motel. And I was like, thank you so much. That's so sweet. It was so moving. And she's like, you guys, it was me and my boyfriend at the time.
Starting point is 00:57:55 And she's like, just come and hang out with me for a couple hours. And we were like, no problem. We went in there. We went in there and she unzips her jacket. And it's like Jesus tattooed across her neck, like crazy tattoos. She has huge fake tits that she like made us look at. What? This is all great.
Starting point is 00:58:12 So far. She was like, do you guys smoke? And I was like, yeah, because I smoked weed and cigarettes at the time. And she was like, okay, I'm going to order some crack. And I was like, no, no, no, no. Let's go. Did she smoke the crack? So then she's like, we're all going to fuck the three of us.
Starting point is 00:58:26 Oh, my God. She was really scary. She was not tracking. It was your ideal day. It was amazing. I was like, I don't want to fuck this lady. I don't want to fuck this lady. And was the boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:58:35 He was like, yeah, he was like that. And then I'm in a fight with him because he's considering it. Sure, sure. And then the knock on the door and the crack dealer is there. And he opens it and he is a realistically six foot nine black man. Huge. And he walks in.
Starting point is 00:58:51 I'm like, okay, I'm about to get gang raped. Just like start dissociating now. And he walks in and he walks up and he goes. goes to Linda for my hop and he goes, you need to let these two youngsters go. I don't sell crack anymore. I sell foam books because a cop beat me up and gave me a tracheotomy that I'm trying to pay off and I've cleaned up my life and you're roping me back into this. Let these two go and me and you are going to have a talk about your sobriety.
Starting point is 00:59:11 What a hero? I know. What a twist. Was that the black guy saved the day? Was that the black guy from Green Mile? Isn't that it was, bro. It was. I remember shaking his hand and being like this hand is going to rip my face off because it was so
Starting point is 00:59:26 big and he was like, go. Go with God. What is that lady up to, huh? She's dead. She's got to be dead. She's with God now. Holy moly, what a story. Isn't that crazy? That's good stuff. Live it from my hop. I'll never forget.
Starting point is 00:59:39 I was going to tell a story about getting jump, but I can't top that. Well, that's, we had a shared story where we profiled people and they ended up saving us. Yes. You've never been punched, though. Oh, my God. Punched? Just in bed. I've been in a lot of fights with people, but not like randomly punched by myself.
Starting point is 00:59:56 somebody. Okay. Yeah, my sister punched me a lot. And then I would fight with kids at school a lot. I got knocked that once and pissed myself. That's how hard I went out. I fainted once and pissed myself. What do you wait?

Starting point is 01:01:25 I never put that together before. Yeah, and you're making everybody else go emotional trauma with your airplane farts. What? His airplane farts? It's so fucked up. I have pictures of people responding, and they all look like they're living in Sharia law because they cover themselves with their blanket. This is next level. There's no way you can be.

And now I take, like, Peptoe or like GasX prior to. The fucking lounge. They serve like lima beans and cauliflower. I'm like, what are you doing? You got sick from the lounge and I always think of that.

Classic. Yeah, I can imagine that happens as a woman. A couple's on either side of me and we're taking a picture. And he thinks I'm her.
Starting point is 01:04:11 Oh. So his hand is touching me the way it would be touching her. That's a classic trick right there. I think it might be a trick.

He's got to go out there and you got to do small talk with everyone. And they do this. They go, I started following you by, because I saw, you on Instagram and then I went to your show and you're like, why would I ever need to know the chronological?
Starting point is 01:06:01 Yeah, but also I do have to say as like these people they like us, we help them get through whatever times they're going to. The least we could do is share our time with them I feel and if you want to tell me how you found me, great, I'll listen you know, you're spending all this money.
Starting point is 01:06:19 I might as well like listen. It does take a lot out of you. I agree, but then they start critiquing. That it always ends up in If you let it go long enough. Dude, that is, that is something too of like, you know, this and that. Or like, they'll insult like a friend. They'll be like, you know, I loved you on this, but they talked over.
Starting point is 01:06:36 And I'm like, dude, we're friends. Like, why are you saying that about that? Always get something, somebody who's like, I know this audience was bad, but you were great.

Starting point is 01:07:01 and I only have like 15 minutes of fucking sit exactly and that does take a lot out of me but I am grateful but I can't imagine at a certain point it's like you got to figure out a way to get but also that's not our job also we're comedians we're supposed to do a show and then do another show like we're joke tellers like no one expects actors to do this or rock You don't see Jarl rule out there like, hey, what's up, man? I know why would Joe. They do, but they like charge. Sure, I don't want to charge.
Starting point is 01:07:29 I was doing this. You can get a poster. I'll sign it and a photo. And then people were like, I'll just get the photo. And then I was like, okay, now you have to buy a poster if you get the photo. And then I increased the price of the poster. That's fucked up. Yeah, I can't do that either.

Starting point is 01:07:50 Talk with you? No, if you buy a poster, you get a picture. No, no, no, no, no. Why are you talking about? That's fucked up. That's fucked up. It's not fucked up. You're a dick.
Starting point is 01:07:59 What do you mean? The time costs money. I have shit to do. But they've already spent money to, what shit do you have to do in between shows? Hang out with fucking the dog in the green room. Like, they've already spent money to see you. They're already, like, I think that's fucked up. What do you mean?
Starting point is 01:08:16 What is the difference between somebody having a merch guy that sells the merch and me saying, I'll give you a picture if you buy my merch. No, no, you're saying you'll only give a picture to sign, to, if you buy something. You're exchanging commerce for a picture, which I think should be free if you're going to do the meeting greet. If you're out there, you might as well take a photo. If they buy something.
Starting point is 01:08:37 No. It's this. Jordan's selling posters. If you buy a poster, she'll sign it and you get a picture. That's so prima don't. That is not prima don't. That's fucked up. I can't do that.
Starting point is 01:08:46 Come on, Sean. We're in. I don't know. Yeah, I think, I hate to do it. You're not Benicio del Toro. I think I'm on Ian and Mark's side here. You think it's pre-Madona? Yes.
Starting point is 01:08:56 I think it's a lot of... What is the difference between Mark not even going out there and me going out there? I'm not giving him the... I'm not teasing them. You're out there. You're not charging for a photo. I would say at that point,
Starting point is 01:09:07 just don't go out there. That's what I'm saying. Yeah, it's way more insulting to charge for a picture than it is to just not go out there. What do you mean? People pay for meat and grease. This gal's in one movie. Yeah, but who the fuck are you?
Starting point is 01:09:18 That's so fucked up. Do you think Vince Vaughn would like? this? I think you would. What do you mean? We've got a call from Vince on the line. Vince, he's not pleased.
Starting point is 01:09:29 You guys can tolerate a huge line of people and just taking pictures and talking to them for no money. Yes, it's called being a fucking kind person. It's hard. But you hope to sell a shirt or two. So then don't go out there. That's your mentality is if I'm out there,
Starting point is 01:09:41 maybe they'll buy a shirt to be nice. No, I'm like, I will talk to you, but you have to provide me this money. That's fucked up and pre-Madonna baby. I love you and I'm saying this because I just, I disagree with you. But that's fucked up behavior. It's not prima don't.
Starting point is 01:09:54 It's an inflated sense of self to charge people. It's a way that may be not quit doing meet and greets because they would prefer to come out. So then why do you do the meet and greet then? To make money. Yeah. Yeah, but it's. Exactly. And because I like talking to people.
Starting point is 01:10:09 You like targeted people. So then why do you charge them? Because I have to make money. No, you don't. See, I don't like talking to people. So that's why I don't go out there. Yeah. What?
Starting point is 01:10:18 You charge for me. The people wait in line. She's selling posters. If you buy a poster, you get a picture. Now, what if they say, I'm not going to buy a post? You say no picture? No, I take the picture. All right, all right.
Starting point is 01:10:32 So then I give. Are you walking the back now? No, that's just how it's phrased from the host. Because that feels like I'd be stuck in a long hang. And it'll thin out the herd of people that don't want to pay. If I found out that someone I, really loved and like spent time listening to would like take a picture with me
Starting point is 01:11:03 if I bought something and the fact that I didn't it's like a pain in their ass to take a picture I'd feel awful I'd be like no if people are in line and they're like I don't I can't buy the poster I'm like come take a picture 100% that happens if you take a picture don't keep it to yourself post it online and say how good if I do thanks I know you ever got a name of those
Starting point is 01:11:29 I'll pay you How about that? Please be nice in the picture. And for the record, we sound like a bunch of assholes. Like, we got to talk to these fucking ghouls. You guys, I'm not saying. For the record, it's just... It's because we're tired.
Starting point is 01:11:42 It's 300 people, 400 people in a line. So it takes a lot out of you. Just for the record. I don't want to... No, totally it does. We love the fans. We need you guys. You know how you send it out.
Starting point is 01:11:50 You make them pay money. That's what I'm saying. And they're happy to do it because it's $20 out of their pocket. They have no problem doing that. They get a poster with a specialized thing with their name on it. They take a picture. barely fucking survive. I'm not taking their money just for like a fucking chance to interact with me.
Starting point is 01:12:06 Buy a shirt, please. But you don't have to. You have to for me. All I'm saying is guess what? I kind of like the meat and greet because that drains my battery. And then afterwards, I get to go to everyone else. I just need a minute. And then I'm like, I can say this without being a jerk.
Starting point is 01:12:24 Okay. I don't get it. If somebody wants a picture and they want to pay money for it, do it. Fine. I'm happy to do it. I would say no meeting and greet or you free pictures and merch. Yeah. Free pictures and merch.
Starting point is 01:12:38 Free merch? No, not free merch. Free merch. I say no meet and greet or offer them to stay with you for the weekend to get like a real cool experience. Yeah, that's what you do. You're like, I'm going to go ice skating with you. We're going to go bowling. I will charge you, but you get to eat my pussy.
Starting point is 01:12:55 Yeah. It's a gamble hanging with. You ever heard that Fitzsimmons story? About what? Some guy is that he went to. Alaska to do a gig, your ex-girlfriend. And he was like, some guy was like, I got an RV, or what do you
Starting point is 01:13:06 call it? ATVs, I got a fishing hole. Let me take you out for the day. I'll show you around. Sounds great. And he's like, yeah, you know what, fuck it. I never do stuff like this. I'll go. He meets the guy at like 9 in the morning. They get into this giant truck with a hitch that's got all this cool stuff, jet skis, all this shit. So they're driving.
Starting point is 01:13:22 And he goes, hey, can you hand me something out of the glove box? Glove box opens. He puts his hand in. There's a gun. Cool. And then he's like, oh, that's weird. And then a bag he falls out and goes all over him. And he's like, oh, shit. That's, like, fentanyl and stuff.
Starting point is 01:13:36 So you might want to wash that off your hands. And Fitzhawks, like, what the hell are you getting me into? And then he looks around, like, the console and there's giant stacks of cash everywhere. Holy shit. Then they get pulled over. So Fitzham is like, oh, I'm covered in powder. There's a gun here. There's cash here.
Starting point is 01:13:52 Holy shit. So the guy's like, geez, put everything away, play it cool, whatever. So the cop comes to the window. And he's like, let her license registration. and Fitzdog is like closed everything up and he goes, what are you hiding? So then he's like, uh, nothing, nothing. He goes, both you guys get out of the car, whatever.
Starting point is 01:14:08 I'm going to search the car. So Fitzdog, they put the two guys in the back seat of the squad car. And Fitzdog's like, what if you got me into? I don't even know this fucking guy. So he's telling the cop, I just met this guy. I met him 20 minutes ago. I have no idea. And he goes, you're going to jail.
Starting point is 01:14:22 He's going to jail. He's got 18 warrants, whatever. And Fitz is like, oh, my God, I got two shows tonight, blah, blah, blah. They both start laughing. That guy knew the cop. They set the whole thing up. No way. It was a goof.
Starting point is 01:14:34 It was a good. He set up the powder. The gun was fake. Holy shit. That is so cool. I was so scared for a second. I know. That's amazing.
Starting point is 01:14:44 Crazy story. Wait, how did they initially get him into the car? The guy just DM'd Fitzdog or whatever. It was like, I have a great ranch with horses and ATVs. We can shoot guns and arrow, you know, crossbows. And it's like, why not? I'm in. I would have a hard time.
Starting point is 01:14:58 It's a small. I would have a heart attack. So he knew the cops and everything. They all got in on it. Was he trying to swing dick? Like, look, I'm a stand of comedian. I have shows tonight. Probably, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:15:06 I think so. He was desperate. He was like, I have kids. I have a wife at home. What do we? I can't be going to jail. Could you imagine? That's so, so awesome.
Starting point is 01:15:14 Jesus Christ. They're lucky they didn't give him a little heart attack. I know. Really. Yeah. I don't know about, that's his story to tell. That's awesome. Dude, if somebody was like, oh, I think that's fentany.
Starting point is 01:15:24 You might have to wash your hands. I would be, like, belligerently. like in a panic state. Yeah. Yeah. I tried to swing Dick recently in the saddest way ever, and then we'll wrap it up. But on New Year's Day,
Starting point is 01:15:37 I played San Diego, New Year's Eve, shout out, and I went to a cat cafe. But the day before we went, and there were too many people. It was in a cat cafe in. San Francisco. Dude, the day before we walk in, they go, sorry, it's too full.
Starting point is 01:15:52 And December 31st is my birthday. And I was playing New Year's Eve, December 31st, at American Concecoff. comedy company San Diego and they go sorry we're all full and I go oh um it's my birthday today can we go in and the guy goes no and I go but it's my birthday and he goes I don't care and I was like I will make an employment tomorrow but I'm not happy about it yeah and you know what's funny about did you drop your name were you like I mean no oh okay so that's not really swinging dick that's swinging a weird baby dick I mean I don't know what's that I think you can let me in there's nothing
Starting point is 01:16:28 swinging dick about that. Dude, no, it would have been way worse if I was like, you know, my name's. Yeah, that's more so. I've never heard of you. But the fuck who's part of that story is that I should have not said it. We should have ended on your banger.
Starting point is 01:16:39 So, I liked it. I liked it. Did you get into the cafe eventually? The next day. All right, how was it? What are you doing? So good. Man, you talk to the cats.
Starting point is 01:16:48 I met a cat that was 17 and that's 96 in human years. Oh, I love her. Man. Every town I go to, I find different cats and it makes you feel nice. Oh my God. I want to hurt your feelings. Oh, hurt me physically fine,
Starting point is 01:17:05 but not my feeling. I hate that we had this conversation because now I'm going to feel like a diva and now I'm going to go back to the fucking nightmare of doing meeting greets. Well, just don't do meeting greets. No, I have to. Why?
Starting point is 01:17:16 Because I always worry that I'll irreversibly become a bad person if I don't do them. So then just do them and say, look, buy a poster or don't, but pictures are for everyone. Okay. Do it. Okay.
Starting point is 01:17:29 Wow. It does suck when you don't go out there, you sell nothing. And then you got to pay the merch guy who sold it like 200 bucks or 250. Dude, I open. Go out there makes such a difference. I open for a band in D.C. And I like, they were like, hey, bring merch. We'll hang it up and you'll sell it like during the show and everything.
Starting point is 01:17:45 Because like music merch goes like that because people are in and out. Ours is all day. They fucking sell like a ton. And dude, after the show, I was like, holy fuck, I can't wait. And I was like, what are the numbers? I go, you didn't sell a thing. And I had to take the same amount of merch back on the train to New York that I brought down. And I just played fucking turn the page by pop secret by head over and over.
Starting point is 01:18:11 No, you're growing and that's good. And you recognize how you feel. And then now you'll change or you won't. But if you do a meeting group where people pay to go in, you really have to hang out, right? No. You're going to give them a little bit. Give them five minutes. Okay.
Starting point is 01:18:25 Each? Well, if it's a small meet and greet. Dude, Bert will do... Yeah. Yeah. Bert does a meet and greet. It's like VIP, but he'll... He loves a shot with you.
Starting point is 01:18:43 But he's like super social. Yeah, yeah. The worst is the guy who hangs out to the end of the line because he wants more time. Dude, that's... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That motherfucker. And then they always go like this.
Starting point is 01:18:53 I don't want to picture or poster. I just want to talk to you. I just want to talk. I will hate myself. That is the worst. I don't kill myself in front of you. I hate that person. I had a guy do that and he just opened his joke book.
Starting point is 01:19:03 He's like, we're going to go to... this whole thing. I was like, no. I'll watch them. The whole meet and greet line, I'll be like that motherfucker and you'll see them letting people pass them. And I'm like,
Starting point is 01:19:11 you're going to be a huge issue. And by that time, you're so excited for it to be over that you are on your last fucking... You have no idea how many, like opening for you, how many people I get of like, hey, is Mark,
Starting point is 01:19:22 can you give Mark this? Can you tell him this? There's a lot of like people trying to get in through me to you. You're just like a dad from an 80s movie with everyone else's luggage, but that gives for more. And I will do it.
Starting point is 01:19:34 Benny, you bake me a weed cake or cookie. I'll eat everything. People are like, you eat those? Who knows what he put in there? I've eaten every drug, every cake, everything made for me. But if somebody does make anything for coyote, which I've gotten a lot, I will not. I will throw it away. But I'll eat literal trash that people.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Because you care about the dog. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, someone at the cellar the other night was like, oh, I made these black and white cookies. And Steve, outside Steve was like, in general, like for a comic, he goes, in general. And everyone was like, no thing. and I was like, I will take the whole sleeve. Thank you. Take them all.
