Starting point is 00:00:09 Last time you were here, you were like one of the opening acts. Now you're the headliner at the show you're doing down here. Yeah, man. You're on the come-ups, huh? A lot of changes in two years, bro. Like, yeah, the last time I was down here two years ago, like in September, I was definitely just like the opening comedian. And I was even catching a hard time for that.
Starting point is 00:00:30 Like, Tyler set something up that they do Tyler. And now I'm fucking headlining and we just added a show because they're selling out. That's so sick, bro. I explained to you, like, I was telling Johnny last week when he was here. I would shout out to Johnny Mitchell. Johnny, yeah, he's sick. Your style of comedy is so much different than a lot of people because, to me, at least, when I watch you and I listen to you talk to people, especially when you're roasting people.
Starting point is 00:00:57 Yeah. I feel like the main difference is a lot of other guys, I can tell they're trying really, really hard. Like, I can tell, like, it's obvious that they worked hard on. on like the shit they're talking about and their bit or whatever. But you, I feel like you're, it feels like you're not even trying. It feels like it just comes natural to you.
Starting point is 00:01:15 Well, yeah. I mean, you know, not to tip my own horn, but that's the difference between, that's the difference between somebody being good and somebody being great. You know what I'm saying? Like anybody who does something
Starting point is 00:01:26 and it looks effortless, you know, that's like, when you're like, oh, this guy is a natural instead of somebody who's not really a natural comic and they're trying to really be a comedian.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Like you can, You know the difference in everything. Like somebody can practice real hard and be a great baseball player, but you can tell people who are born to play baseball. Yes. There's a big difference. You know what I'm saying? And then being able to combine, like, the discipline and putting in, like, the hard work
Starting point is 00:01:53 and the time into it as well as having that natural ability, that's really what sets people off. 10,000 hours. There's a noise. 10,000 hours. They got a noise. Oh, okay. Yeah, we, I dub it out after. It's not super annoying, is it?
Starting point is 00:02:07 I mean, you can think, right? Yeah, I think. For y'all, I was like, do you know, do they hear that? No, yeah, I'm real sensitive to noises. I'm, I gotta get the AC system replacing this thing, fucking piece of shit. But yeah. Yeah, 10 to 10,000.
Starting point is 00:02:21 Is that like the Malcolm Gladwell thing that he talks about? Whoever did it. Yeah, but it's real, because, like, you can, I can feel myself becoming, like, more of a natural on stage, and it's becoming more just like a seventh sense instead of like actually going out and do comedy. So it's like I'm just going on stage and giving you my personality while I'm performing instead of...
Starting point is 00:02:45 I mean, I still have a set that, you know, I've written and prepared. But, you know, like, you'll look at comedians in their early days. Like, if you look at Dave Chappelle, like a lot of stuff you're doing your early days is real jokey. And then the more you do it and you become great, it becomes like more of you like nobody else can say it but you like if you look at Dave Chappelle now
Starting point is 00:03:12 so like that's the growth you know some people don't like it but it's just it's just it's what comes natural you mean you kind of like fall into like this own lane you've created like you kind of like carved out a niche for yourself and like a certain style so you kind of like more like lean into that harder and harder yeah once you find your voice
Starting point is 00:03:30 that's what you know you'll hear you'll hear a lot of comedians talk about finding your voice on stage and that's what they mean like you know like like like I can go on stage and rant for 20 minutes and it's not prepared right because I found out voice and I know what inflictions I should say and what's going to be funny and what's not going to be funny so I know how to say it and why to say it and where to say right yeah you definitely know how to read the room yeah yeah that's very important man like like a lot of comedians like always ask me for advice and I'm like bro just just be funny like you know stop trying to like have a scientific a
Starting point is 00:04:10 scientific formula to be funny like just be funny yeah just be you yeah just be you yeah just be you bro yeah you go on stage and be you you said you just moved to austin yeah I'm out there in how long you been there uh since august so i moved joe moved you down yeah man you know uh rogan had to get all the all the best down he had to get out he had to get all the best people down there man he's he's creating like a comedy utopia man i mean um didn't like duncan moved down there too and a bunch of guys tim dylan tony dylan yeah so what's the scene like there now is it just like way bigger than it was before all that i'm sure so the first time i ever went to austin was shortly after i did your podcast which was like december 2020 yeah and um rogan was there uh they had did a
Starting point is 00:05:02 couple of shows and I came down there to do some shows with Tony and then I would hit up other spots and the scene just wasn't a scene like it was just people on stage you know writing some shit I mean local people and so yeah saying some shit they just wrote that day and it's like oh bro I'm I'm like it like it's not going to make me better you know what I'm saying I'm like if this is the like gonna dumb you down yeah because I'm like if this because in LA bro you you might have to follow a killer. You might have to follow. You might have to follow a Theo Vine in L.A.
Starting point is 00:05:38 And you're like, oh, shit, I brought my A game. But these motherfuckers here, you're like, what the fuck is this? You know what I'm saying? Right. So, um, Rogan started doing a residency and I do it a lot with him. It's every Tuesday and, well, most every Tuesday and Wednesday. What does that mean, residency? Or you just continuously do shows at the same place.
Starting point is 00:05:56 Okay, I got you. Yeah. So he does a residency as, uh, residency at his place called a Vulcan. And that's pretty much every Tuesday and Wednesday. and Wednesday and that's a great show to be on. Like he expects new material
Starting point is 00:06:09 he doesn't want you to do the same thing over and over again. He really challenges comedians and that's why when he opens his club is going to be the best club in the nation, in my opinion. Because I don't feel like any comedy club
Starting point is 00:06:25 has ever opened a comedy club to focus on the comedian. Every, you know, comedy club has opened focused on how we're going to make money. Right. Yeah. How are we going to maximize his profits? So he's actually opening a comedy club where it's like comedian first.
Starting point is 00:06:42 You know what I'm saying? Right. He doesn't have to worry about the business side. I mean, you do, but not like you're not doing it just because you have to make some money. Yeah. It's kind of like. That's like his whole like the hero. Bro.
Starting point is 00:06:53 Like Rogan's so dope, bro. Like and like I said, I've never seen a comedy club be built before. But he'll bring us all in. He'll be like, what do you think about this? What should we do? And it's like, damn, like, I have input in one of, probably that's going to be a historic comedy club. And I, like, I have input. What you think about this color?
Starting point is 00:07:14 What you think about that color? What you think about this mini-seas? What do you think about having drapes right here? Like, we should lower the ceiling so that the sound, it's like, wow. Like, I have input, you know what I'm saying? So it's like, it's like mind-blowing. And, you know, it's taking a while because he's, like, taking his time to fine-tune everything so that we have the best lighting. so that we have, you know, whatever, the best measurement so that the sound stays in the room the best.
Starting point is 00:07:37 So, like, we were there a few months ago, I believe it was maybe August. August, yeah, I had just freshly moved. So either August or September and Louis C.K. was in town. And he told Rogan, he's like, these ceilers are way too tall. Really? Yeah, he's like, these ceilings are way. Just like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:54 And the rug was like, well, what we got to do? How tall do they got to be? Yeah. And so he lowered the ceilings, man, like seven feet. No way. Just because, you know. Feels more intimate maybe. Yeah, more intimate in the laughter.
Starting point is 00:08:06 Like, you know, you get a full, you put 250, 250 people in a room. I think the one room holds 250 and others going to hold like 175. But you put 250 people in a room that's built to hold sound and the ceilings are low. It's going to sound like you're in a fucking arena. Yes. That's good. He's doing that, bro. You know damn well he didn't do any of that when he set up that red podcast studio.
Starting point is 00:08:27 He didn't talk to anybody. He might have talked to one guy. Yo, what should I do to this? Make it look like fucking a red hellscape. That, bro, that's him. Yeah, that was Joe's vision for sure. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was him building what he wanted.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Like, bro, even when we were, you know, talking about designs, he's like, yeah, I want the bar to look like the bar from the shiny. Oh, shit, really? So it's like, bro, you got money. You know what I'm saying? You got money like that. And like, he's real passionate about comedy,
Starting point is 00:08:57 but more so he's more passionate about the convention. comedian, you know what I'm saying? Right. The experience being there. He takes care of all his friends. Like, you know what I'm saying? That's why it was easy for me to stick up for him when motherfuckers were trying to call him a racist. Yeah. And I was like, well, if this is a racist, give me more.
Starting point is 00:09:14 Yeah, yeah. I think I like racist. Bro, it's so crazy how a lot of the comedians will just fucking turn their backs on people when they get called out for being racist or saying some like anti-Jew shit on the media. Yeah, but these comedies will never make it. these comedians will never make it or if they make it you know there'll be soy boys you know what I'm saying so it's like
Starting point is 00:09:35 it's like bro your time's gonna come like there's gonna be a time when some shit about it's inevitable if you're in the spotlight some shit is gonna come your way you're gonna have some you're gonna have some disgruntled bitch you're gonna have some old employee
Starting point is 00:09:51 you're gonna have something where somebody tries to take from you because America's just a greedy place or somebody sees an opening and they try to you know slide into that opening then they can cook up whatever story and it's like bro like if a girl came out from 15 years ago and she was like
Starting point is 00:10:06 I didn't really want to have sex with him but we have sex it's like bitch I don't know like maybe I did talk you into it because that's what guys do yeah that's what guys let's go get a drink see how you feel you know what I'm like come on girl let me just stick it in a little yeah let me get 10 pumps let me get 10 pumps
Starting point is 00:10:22 every guy has done that yeah no doubt every guy has coerced his way into a girl's vagina. Yeah, that's what men do. That's what animals do. Every guy has been like, come on, man, you boy, let me just eat it.
Starting point is 00:10:35 Let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me something like, every guy has done that. So, you know, if some girl were to say he coached me into having sex with him, it could be true. That's the game. Right. That's the game. Like, every guy, you know, takes a bitch out for drinks
Starting point is 00:10:50 and hopes that she gets loose and go home to fuck. Is that wrong? You know what I'm saying? Like, I feel like it's a big difference and me taking you to drinks to get loose versus like popping something in your drink like Bill Kaiser. The crazy thing about that whole N-word thing with Joe
Starting point is 00:11:06 that they tried to cancel them for it is I saw what, I don't remember how long ago, maybe it had have been over a year ago before the whole thing happened on with recently with him. Yeah, well, he was doing his stand-up routine and he actually brought it up during his stand-up routine. He's like, there's a video out there of me
Starting point is 00:11:23 saying an N-word compilation of much of times and he was like, I forget what the joke was, He was like, even I went, fuck. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's like, even I thought I sounded, even I thought I was racist for a second. Yeah, he, like, bro, he, before it came out, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:11:38 He, uh, he told all of us. Yeah. I'm like, bro, like, I know your heart, dog. Like, even if you call the black person inward, I'd be like, Joe, you fucked up, but I know your heart. You know what I'm sorry? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:49 I know your heart, dog. Like, and, you know, you've helped me take care of my kids and you've helped me establish myself in Austin. so what? I know this dude's hard. It's a great man. He's opened his house to me and, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:02 open his money to me, his pockets and opportunities to me. So it's like, bro, like, I know your heart. And if you're advancing people of color, like, I don't see any racist traits in your body. Right.
Starting point is 00:12:16 And it's like Patrice O'Neill said, man, comedians are all trying to be funny. And Patrice said, the birth of a funny joke and an unfunny joke come from the same place and you don't know if it's funny until you say it and Rogan gets stone
Starting point is 00:12:34 he gets high and I can see how the the story of the planet apes and I felt like I was in Planet Apes came about you're trying to be funny I've tried to be funny before when it came out races and you just didn't say
Starting point is 00:12:50 you're like oh fuck you know what I'm saying that happens you know especially you know, you're on your podcast. You know, we start, if we started drinking and passing a blend around and we started talking about Indians or Asians or whatever, something racist can come out
Starting point is 00:13:05 because I might say a funny, then he tries this thing at being funny and it might not come out right. But people were not in that moment. They take stuff out of context. Yeah. And then they run with it. And, you know, it's just What's up? Oh, the Rogan video. But whenever you're in a situation where you have to say
Starting point is 00:13:26 I'm not racist. You f***ed up and I clearly have f***ed up. That's weird. It's all good Joe. You could tell they edited that too. Like there were some cuts. They cut it down to be shorter. They, they, they, the media hated on Joe because of his whole stance on the COVID vaccine.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Yeah, they were trying to find an edge on him for a while. He has more influence than they do now. He has a bigger influence. He ran circles around Sanjay Gupta. Yeah. You know, It's like now they owe him a big apology when these articles come out about, you know, the vaccine possibly causing myocarditis and fucking up girls periods and women, women that are 60 years old getting a vaccine and getting a period again after not having a
Starting point is 00:14:08 period for 30-something years and then, you know, women becoming infertile. Like somebody owes him an apology. It's your point of seeing it. Yeah. Like for someone to be weary of a vaccine that wasn't really tested like that, I mean, you don't got to go back too far. If you look at black people, you know what I'm saying, with the people in the, the Tuskegee experiment.
Starting point is 00:14:28 You know what I'm saying? Which one is that? Isn't it the Tuskegee experiment where... Tuskegee? Was that it where they were giving black people? They were supposed to be giving them a vaccine, and then they, like, injected them with smallpox. What?
Starting point is 00:14:41 I don't think I heard about this. You ever heard of find it? The Tuskegee experiment. Cepilus study at... Oh, okay. In 19 or 1932, the U.S. PHS working with a Tuskegee Institute began, I lost my place. Scroll down a little bit.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Begin a study to record the natural history of syphilis. It was originally called Tuskegee study of untreated syphilis in the Negro male, now referred to as the US PHS syphilis study at Tuskegee. The study initially involved 600 black men, 399 with syphilis. 201 did not have the disease. participants informed consent and participants informed consent was not collected researchers told the men that they were being treated for bad blood a local term used to describe several ailments including syphilis anemia and fatigue huh so it says in exchange for taking part of the study they received free medical exams free meals and burial insurance what so it's like yeah so for black people to be wary of them oh yeah fucking vaccine. Like, come on.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Well, black people, the, the African-American population, and specifically in, like, New York, I think, were having the most adverse medical side effects to that vaccine, I think, than anybody. I mean, bro, I've had that shit a few times. Have you had COVID? I have never had it. What?
Starting point is 00:16:11 Never fucking had it. Yeah, I got it once. You're a dirty boy. Bro, it's weird. I've gotten sick. Like, I've gotten the same symptoms multiple times, and I tested myself. And I always tested negative.
Starting point is 00:16:21 My wife got it. Here's one thing. The one that was out last year, I took hella test, bro, because I was sick because I've had like two, three times. And I took hell of tests last year and they all came back negative. But then I tested positive, like a week later for the antibodies.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Strong antibodies. Like, I had just got over. No shit. So I probably had it. I never took the antibody test. Right, right. Yeah. So I was at Rogan Studio, actually.
Starting point is 00:16:47 Oh, really? He has an on-call doctor. You know what shit. Yeah. Do you still do that? What's that? Is he still doing that test for everyone now? Probably not.
Starting point is 00:16:56 That was last year. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That could not have been cheap. But yeah, bro, there's so much fucking sketchy shit that's happened in the history of this country with vaccines and shit. Even in, like, Afghanistan, the CIA, there's a story. The CIA set up a, like, a SIOP vaccination camp for people.
Starting point is 00:17:17 They were telling the, they were telling the, they were telling the, they were telling the, Afghanistan people that they were getting vaccines, but they were actually like shooting them up with some bullshit that was fucking them up somehow. God damn. I forget what it was. You'd probably find out what exactly was. You ever seen the video? Yeah. CIA organized
Starting point is 00:17:34 fake vaccination drive to get Osama bin Laden's family's DNA. Hilarious. You ever seen? And I get it, bro. We were not started on morality in this country. No. No. Not at the least. So I get it.
Starting point is 00:17:50 I get it. We're a fucked up nation. That's how we've acquired a lot of the stuff that we've acquired. We did some dirty shit. We did some sketchy shit to stay number one. And to stay number one for as long as we stay number one, you do have to be fucked up. So I totally get it.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Yeah. And along the way, I don't want me or mine's being collateral damage. You know what I'm saying? You want what being collateral damage? I don't want me or minds. Me or my family being collateral damage. So, you know, I'm glad that I do have the resources that I have and I can go to doctors that my richer friends use and be like, hey, should we do this?
Starting point is 00:18:24 And they'll be like, well, you know what I'm saying? Like doctors who are not pushed by big forms. They're going to be honest with you. Right. That are not pushed by big pharma companies. Right. Yeah. Hey, can you find a video one of the fun thing about Afghanistan of the American soldiers
Starting point is 00:18:39 trying to teach Afghanistanians jumping jacks? Have you all ever seen that? No. Oh, this is why the situation that Kabul happened, bro. These people are. These people are not coordinated. Like, type that in on YouTube. American soldiers teach Afghanistanians.
Starting point is 00:18:54 They're trying to teach them jumping jack. Bro, so you think they can fucking... So you think they can fucking teach them how to shoot a rifle? Bro, and you wonder why it's over there so... Look, they can't... He's kicking the legs and the arms at the same time. Something so simple.
Starting point is 00:19:19 This guy just can't get it. He just can't. Oh, my Lord. He went one leg. That is so fucked up, dude. That guy's got it. Yeah. Kind of.
Starting point is 00:19:42 That's the one person you trust with a gun. Yeah, you're like, all right, we got one. We got one. Bro, how are you supposed to teach these things how to use AR? Bro, they probably grew up using AR. They were probably in preschool. can't do a jumping jack. You can't do it jumping jack.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Oh my God. Bro, that's why they didn't want us to pull out of P.E class. That's why he didn't want us to pull out of Kabul, bro, because they're like, niggas soon as y'all pull back, Al-Qaeda's back, look who the fuck.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Look who holes all the way. These motherfuckers can't do a bear craw. Oh my God, bro. You see the video of them trying to hold on to the plane that was taken off from the runway and they're falling off the fucking plane? I'm fucked up. I was laughing at this shit.
Starting point is 00:20:23 That's crazy. They're the same guys who can't do a jumping jack. They think they can hold on to the fucking landing gear. You know what, bro? Like, I'm a proud American citizen. You know what I'm saying? So when I see people like Brittany Griner and all these other people who denounced America, and then you see a situation like that.
Starting point is 00:20:41 And it's like, you should be glad that you're in a fucking country where you can even talk bad about the fucking government. Anywhere else that shit would not apply. Bro, like Qatar over there and all that shit where they have. having the soccer games right now, bro. People are mysteriously dying for saying bullshit. You know what I'm saying, bro? So it's like that one soccer player is he from Iran?
Starting point is 00:21:03 He's getting murdered, executed, beheaded. Yeah, when he goes back or whatever he has? I didn't hear about that. Yeah. So it's like, bro, like they lost and he said something or said some and they're like when he goes back, he's getting fucked up. He's done. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:21:17 Like he's scared to go back. I mean, like, remember the Colombian soccer player who scored a goal in his own goal? No. Oh, you got to be headed? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So it's like, yeah, like not only are they not coming to get you, like you wouldn't even have been playing basketball.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Yeah, man. So it's like when you see situations like that, it just makes me appreciate where I live. Like, you might hate it or love it. Yeah, they can have got you. There's not too many other fucking countries where you can become a self-made millionaire. Right.
Starting point is 00:21:48 My dad's family's from Cuba and, there's no way unless you better box. play hell of baseball or be a great-ass singer like bro what's that dude name puig you never heard of puke the baseball player no oh yeah yeah yeah bro he was basically like on some slave shit really a person in Texas bought him from Cuba and then that person in Texas sold him to the Dodgers oh wow shit like bro these other countries though so that's why it's like bro you're
Starting point is 00:22:19 proud of like bro go to north Korea where they show propaganda that they they fucking take it over America. You know, they got to brainwash their citizens constantly. You know what I'm saying? Just to give them hope to keep on living. So it's like, you should be happy you can say bullshit.
Starting point is 00:22:36 You got free speech. Did she say negative shit about America before she went over there? Or was it after she was already in Russia? Before. Before. Yeah, she was kneeling for the anthem and doing all that stuff. She probably changed her tune though.
Starting point is 00:22:47 I bet you she changed that shit now. I mean, you've been in a Russian prison. Her fucking, her locks froze off because it was so cold. So it's like you should really come back A new person and have a different No doubt.
Starting point is 00:22:59 Really should. On where the fuck you live that we traded an arms dealer for your gay ass. One of the biggest most prolific. The arm dealer the nickname. He was like this. Victor Boot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:10 He had a crazy. Yeah. The something of death or something. The doctor of death. The dealer of death or something. All I know is. What is the call? Look up that guy.
Starting point is 00:23:19 All I know is the merchant of death. The merchant of death. Oh, yeah. Yeah. All I know is Nick Cage. played him in Lord of War and that was a fucking sick movie. See, the thing about that guy too,
Starting point is 00:23:30 I don't know if he wasn't, I don't think he was really that bad of a guy. I think he was just making money off. He was just like exploiting opportunities to sell. That's what I'm saying. That's how you have to become rich over there. Yeah. Right. Right. Like you, you, there's not working a nine to five and you can't really legally be rich over there. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:23:48 And communist countries, dog, there's no, you got to do some illegal shit. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? And if you supply arms to terrorists, then Was it eventually a charge of See, conspiracy to kill Americans. That's bullshit.
Starting point is 00:24:02 That's some, I think that's some fucking American political thing. They try to use an excuse. Yeah, like you sold guns to somebody. He was selling guns to a country that we didn't like. That's a conspiracy charge. Yeah. The conspiracy charge is bullshit.
Starting point is 00:24:14 I wonder what they kill him when he get back over there. He's already doing a podcast, bro. Is he really? He's already doing interviews over there. Like, yeah. He went out. Yeah, I wondered like, How does Russia feel about him?
Starting point is 00:24:25 Because I know he's been over here, what, 20 years? Long time. Yeah, we've got some shit out of him. Oh, yeah. Don't see, the CIA tortured treatment. Yeah. Yeah, you know they fucked with him. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:35 Yeah, he wasn't just sitting in the cell for 20 years. They interviewed him. They interviewed him a couple days ago. And one of the ladies in Russia was asking him, like, what do you think about America now compared to what you thought before? He goes, before I got locked up there. You know, we would look at America, like the shiny town on the hill. And now they have 36 different. genders and the places going to hell.
Starting point is 00:24:55 They don't have the Christian or the Catholic values that we have in Russia. They don't have. There's nothing binding Americans together. They're fucking more divided than ever. There's a million genders and nobody gets along. He was like, he has a- All that gender shit is dumb as fuck. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:15 Rogan talks, me and Rogan have had conversations about how a lot of superpower places get fascinated with gender before they're demanding. lives like they get fascinated with gender and then they end in like a hundred or two hundred years really like we'll be gone like shit gets so good and comfortable that they can we can't find problems like we need problems to solve but once shick becomes so good like we look for more and more problems we dig for problems we need a we need a we need a nine 12 the day after nine 11 when all that mattered was being an american citizen you know what I'm saying being an American, bro.
Starting point is 00:25:54 Like, I think I was in the fifth or sixth grade. Like, and I still remember the unity. You know what I'm saying? Like, bro, like, I'm from deep south. Like, you know, from down here and raised in Georgia. Yeah, I was raised in Georgia. And I remember, man, like, having conversations with grown in about being a proud American.
Starting point is 00:26:10 Like, I would wear an American t-shirt and they'd be like, oh, yeah, we had these conversations that I felt like if that would have ever happened, we wouldn't have had it. You know what I mean? And people were just proud. Like, people were putting flags in their car. Yeah, everywhere. Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:26:23 Like, dog, I feel like some shit like that would make people see what was really real. And all that other shit ain't real, bro. Like, fuck your pronouns. Yeah, it's stupid. There's bigger problems. Yeah. What's that guy named? Matt Walsh.
Starting point is 00:26:39 Y'all follow him? No. Is he the guy who did the documentary on, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What's it called? Never. What's the fucking documentary on? Yeah, it's about, he interviews basically a bunch of people who got, like, gender reassignment surgery and, like, regretted it out.
Starting point is 00:26:53 Yeah, bro, because it's like, dog, you over here, you over here. And I get it. It's on both sides. Like, you got women that are fascinated with BBLs. Like, people in America are just cultural vultures. What's popular right now? I want to do what's popular. Yeah, I want to do what's popular.
Starting point is 00:27:11 It's a drug. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So it's like, I get it, man. Like, you know, like, you want to fall into that and be accepted. It's like there's a comedian. I ain't going to mention no names in L.A. And the dude started taking hormones.
Starting point is 00:27:27 You know what I'm saying? What kind of hormones? The women hormones. Oh, shit. And grew tities or a little bit. And the facial hair went away. But the dude still got a dick and he still fucks women. And I'm like, you're fucking selfish.
Starting point is 00:27:41 Yeah. You're not what you're trying to display yourself to be. Yeah. You're just out here doing this because it's what's popular right now. Bro. And it's also like, it seems like it's the rich kids that are doing it, too. It seems like it's the wealthy people or like the kids of celebrities. Yeah, that's what happens, man.
Starting point is 00:27:58 You get, you get bored. They think they're bad. It's like they think they're better than everyone are like, I'm not, I'm too good for male or female. I got to be something different. Yeah, like Jayden Smith. Somebody want to cut it off, stupid motherfucker. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Cut it off. Yeah. I love my dick. Yeah, bro. That's crazy. And Dwayne Wade's kids. You see the shit that came out about Dwayne Wade. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:28:19 His mom is not with that shit. The kid's mom is. Right, really? Right. Yeah. Gabrielle? No, no, no. That's not his mom.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Oh, no. The mom. Oh, he got a different mom. The real mom. The real mom. I just feel like, um, like kids should be innocent, bro. And, um, you know, um, I don't want my kids. I got a two-year-old and eight-year-old.
Starting point is 00:28:44 I don't want them knowing about heterosexual or homosexual sex. Yeah. At their age. Right. Like, it's not important. Yeah. You know, like, uh, let these kids grow up. Let them be fucking kids without trying to have them identify as something.
Starting point is 00:28:58 When we were kids, we didn't, like, bro, we would have took a Barbie and played with it. It didn't mean that I wanted to be a girl. It was just, I was a kid. I don't know any fucking better. Right. Yeah, you know what I mean? Like, I used to try to make my cousins barbies fuck. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:14 Put one Barbie on top of the other. Yeah. Yeah, bro. It's crazy because, like, I mean, it's just, it's incentivized by what? I mean, politics and money mainly, right? Because now there's like all these hormone clinics that are all over the country that are charging all this money, making all this money, trying to promote it. Making all this money.
Starting point is 00:29:28 And then what's the end goal, though? So move the, if you move the base, like towards it, it won't tip. Okay. Yeah. But what's the end goal? I don't think there is an end goal, bro. I don't think they've thought it through. Yeah, because I've heard these fucking binary or whatever the fuck they are people
Starting point is 00:29:45 call women that give birth breeders and call them chest feeders. I have heard that one. I bounce in between L.A. and Austin, so I get it all. You know what I'm saying? Like, L.A., bro, that's, like, Austin's liberal, but it's not L.A. liberal. Like, they're still conservatives that drive lifted. They say they're liberal, but it's like, bro, you have not been to L.A. You motherfuckers drive lifted trucks and eat meat.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Yeah. These motherfucking liberals in L.A. have... They're the real deal. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They don't want to work. They're lazy. You know what I'm saying? All these offended, what are you offended by?
Starting point is 00:30:24 Everything. Like, no, that's why you suicidal and depressed right now because your ass can't take a good verbal ass kicking. The people in L.A., like a majority of people in L.A., like the mystique of L.A. is show business, right? So people that live there that are entwined in show business, they want to like follow, they want to stay in line with what's acceptable in show business. And I think the main, that is being extremely liberal liberal and far left and being like socially conscious of everybody and don't hurt animals. That shit's changing. It's slowly changing. And I think in the next five years.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Yeah. And then also, like, I hate the reference Rogan, but he's one of the most knowledgeable people, knowledgeable people I know. And he's like, these people are just a small group. You know, I travel America for a living.
Starting point is 00:31:13 And my comedy is pretty right, you know, on the right side of the political scale. And it's a very small group of people, bro. It is. Like, we look at L.A. in New York.
Starting point is 00:31:26 You know what I'm saying? And that is a very small percentage of the population because there's a lot of conservatives in Southern California, like the whole Orange County. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, like San Diego. San Diego, Orange County and General, like Riverside. All that shit, bro, are people who want to tote their guns and they're kind of like libertarians.
Starting point is 00:31:47 But you have these few fat vegans in L.A. with purple hair that don't want to work and talk about, you know what I'm saying, systemic racism. And it's like, bitch, don't be offended for me. Yeah. You're not oppressed? No, bitch.
Starting point is 00:32:05 The fuck. White people have been great to me. Yeah. I am not oppressed. I cannot name a single instance where a white person has kept me from doing anything I wanted to achieve. If anything,
Starting point is 00:32:18 it's been the people that share the same skin complex as me that have robbed me, put guns to me, me put knives to me and taking my shit. I've never been robbed by a white person. Sorry to disappoint you. Yeah. They're like, well, what about this?
Starting point is 00:32:33 What about that? There's something. Oh my God, man. Sorry to disappoint you. I've never been robbed by a white person. I am so sorry, sweetheart. Never. I mean, I've probably been robbed on the, you know,
Starting point is 00:32:46 the fucking agent and management and lawyer's side. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But that's a different type of rob, you know what I'm saying? That's subtle. That's subtle. At least it's not blatant. It's not armed robbery. Right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Yeah, for sure. My life's not in danger. You know what I'm saying? Bro. Like, it's, it's, what isn't, aren't they getting a new,
Starting point is 00:33:04 isn't L.A. getting a new mayor? Karen Bass. Karen Bass. Yeah. I heard, I heard, I don't forget who I was listening to talk about it.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Maybe it was Tim Dillon. He was talking about how they are shuttling all the homeless people out of downtown L.A. just so they can make, like, Like they're doing like a big ceremony for Karen Bass to be the new mayor and there's I guess there's tons of homeless people in that area. Oh, but we got like 120,000. So they're getting buses and they're moving them all out just so they can.
Starting point is 00:33:32 They put them in hotels and shit. Oh my God. Wow. How crazy is that? Our city. Oh my God. Oh, there it is with L.A. swearing in the new mayor, Cruz worked to move homeless encampments. Bro, let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:33:46 Our city has not been right since Mayor Villarigosa. Which one was that? How long it was that? It was a criminal, bro. He was about eight, nine years ago. Like, when I first moved to L.A., it was, bro, like, homeless people were centralized to one area. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:34:01 I used to live downtown, but they were literally in the morning, like 6 a.m., go out there with fucking water hoses and hose them down. You know what I'm saying? Like, get the fuck up out of here, bitch. Like, and that's what people don't understand, bro. You're talking about L.A. County. That's a place that holds like 13 million people. Right.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Some states don't have that population. Right. You can't be this righteous, soft, you know. You get run over. Mayor Viragoza was a gangster. There was a rumor about him taking guns to his meetings. And, you know, he just got shit done, bro. Like, you kind of got to be a criminal, though.
Starting point is 00:34:42 You kind of got to have a criminal mindset. It's like Gotham City. Like, a righteous motherfucker can't go to Gotham City and make it right. No, you got to have police that do shakedowns that kind of... Yeah, you got to do some shit. Yeah, you got to kind of beat the criminals ass a little bit so that they know, like, motherfucker, these minds do this. Yeah, you're not going to do this without repercussions.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Like, bro, like, they're, like, in L.A. right now. That's why we got all those massive, uh, death rings where it's like 20 people were breaking to Neiman. It's still like 15,000 dollars of shit because the minimum for a felony is like 1,500 now. So if 20 of us go, we can get $20,000 worth of shit. And nobody gets charged with a felony. And we'll be out to go home for dinner. That's fucking wild, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:27 You got to start, you got to, like, you got to start back racially profiling in LA. You can't, that's not a city. Type it in on your computer, bro. How much on robbery and crimes have increased in L.A. over the past, like, two, three years. Yeah, it's crazy, right? My apartment, look at this shit, bro.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Well, that's Alibu. That's North California. It's like a guy talking over. But also there's one out of 48 shoplifters. One out of 48 shoplifters get caught, he said. And they're just fucking, they're just filling up their bags at Walmart. No regard. Why do you, I mean, the people that are in charge of L.A. and in California, the people, like the politicians, do they think they're doing the right thing?
Starting point is 00:36:22 It started a few years ago when we had this one city councilwoman. I can't remember her name. I think she was a lesbian. And it got to the point to where they had to stop touching homeless people's tents because it was considered their property, even if they set up on a fucking sidewalk. Right. And then they had this place, Echo Park where, you know, families go. There's a lake.
Starting point is 00:36:47 You can walk around the lake. And they had a lot of homeless people. These homeless people were doing like fucked up shit with kids and shit present, jacking off fucking smoking, shooting up. And all these fucking libs and vegetarians were like, no, you can't kick them out the part.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Bitch bring them to your house. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Are you hanging in your fire. Kids over there? Like, come on. You don't have kids.
Starting point is 00:37:09 You don't desire to have fucking kids because you think for some reason that you were born asexually. So you don't even want to have kids. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So it's like, get the fuck out of here. I take my kids to public parks to run around, and I'm a licensed gun carry in the state of California,
Starting point is 00:37:26 and I will kill a motherfucker if they do some bullshit. I'm going to protect my kids at all costs, and I got money for a lawyer. So it's like, most people in L.A. are scared. Most people in L.A. are very terrified. And what's with, there's also, like, a push to not have kids with people, like super far left.
Starting point is 00:37:46 I know, like, there was a lecture done at some university or whatever. And one of the, I forget where, one of the big universities and, like, the professor was talking about growing up and had, like, overpopulation on the planet and shit. And she was like, well, you know, some people, it's okay to have kids, but it's, it's probably the more responsible thing to not reproduce. They're dumb, bro. It's like a, it's a weird thing that's happening with young people now. They want to, like, prioritize their career and their money before, like, I want to be rich before before I ever have kids. Like, make sure my career is. Right.
Starting point is 00:38:20 What's the point of getting rich if you don't got children? Leave it to what? A dog? Leave your money to a dog. A cat? Yeah. Some fucking foundation that don't really give a fuck about you and they'll put a plaque on this million-dollar million-dollar million.
Starting point is 00:38:34 They stick in their pocket anyway. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The fucking CEO of a homeless shelter walk around making a $308,000 a year salary because of your dumb-ass donations, bitch. Yeah. Right. The pastor flying in his own private jet. But, like, you can see the argument, though, when you look at it.
Starting point is 00:38:50 downtown L.A. and you see all the fucking prostitutes and crackheads that probably had no father. They probably grew up in like a circle of poverty and drug abuse and fucking, who knows, their uncle probably touched them. That comes to accountability. That comes to accountability, bro. If they really, like, if they really force parents to be parents, parents would be parents. Like, dog, like, I come from fucked up circumstances. And my mom could have easily abandoned me. You know what I'm saying? I was raised by my grandparents. and she could have easily abandoned me
Starting point is 00:39:25 and I could have easily chosen to go left when I chose to go right because I always knew even when we lived in the hood that I wanted better for myself. You know what I'm saying? And yeah, it's up... What do you see?
Starting point is 00:39:40 What are your parents instilling you? And what do you see your parents doing? Did you know from a really young age that you were like destined, you like wanted to do something more with your life? Yeah, when I was like eight years old, I told my mom I was going to be like Will Smith. which I hate now because he slapped Chris Rock.
Starting point is 00:39:56 And actually, I just had Chris Rock. I just had dinner with Chris Rock like a month ago, bro. No way. Yeah, it was fun. What was it like in the comedy world? Like, how did that rock? So that's- The thoughts of everybody and stuff.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Like, I've seen Chris Rock multiple times, like when I used to be a door guy at the Comedy Store. Before then. Yeah. And this is my first time being like in an intimate setting. Like, we were at this. So Rogan, Chris Rock was in Austin performing at the Moody Center. And Rogan rented a restaurant for us.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Chris Rock was actually right here and Rogan was right there. His writer was right here. His sound guy was right there. William Montgomery is right there. And he has a crew of like 15 people. So he was all in this. Chris does? Yeah, he got a big crew.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Yeah. You know, a fucking arena act. Yeah. So I'm sitting next to Chris Rock. From the time I meet him, he's not the Chris Rock you see on stage. You know what I'm saying? He's not this loud boasts person.
Starting point is 00:40:48 And he's just so small and so fragile, older guy. and, you know, Will Smith, what, 6, 3, 6, 64. Yeah, he's a big guy. You know, you can obviously tell he's still physically active, lift weights and does stuff. And Chris's small, you know, skinny fingers. And it's like, I felt so bad for it. And I'm like, how could Will Smith do that slap this guy?
Starting point is 00:41:12 And it made, and I grew up a very big fan of Fresh Prince, summer, summertime with him and Jadji Jeff. And I'm like, how could Will Smith slap? I would feel like such a bitch-ass motherfucker slapping someone like Chris Rock. Like, how did he do this? Right. Bro, like Will Smith, you have a sketch
Starting point is 00:41:33 or a, yeah, a sketch, and one of the episodes of First Prince where you wanted to be a stand-up comedian. So you get jokes. This man did not, the joke was not that bad. Right. And I think he did it to a person
Starting point is 00:41:49 he knew he can get away with it. Definitely. I don't think he would have slapped Steve Harvey. No. Yeah, it's weird, bro. Definitely not. I wonder how much. But Chris Rock did the same thing.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Chris Rock did the right thing, excuse me. He did the right thing. Like, on a setting like that, the Oscars. Like, bro, like me? Yeah, it's a different story, right? Bro, first of all, Will Smith when it came on stage with me. Because, like, bro, like, but I'm, you know, like, I was born in the hood.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Then when I became a teenager, we lived in a suburb. But I have like those hood, like, you know, when I'd be on dates and shit, girls be like, why are you so paranoid? I'd be like, girl, you got to watch your surroundings. And, you know, so it's like I got those instincts still. And I look at body language. And like, if you're walking towards me, I'm like, hold on what you doing, bro? You know, I'm putting up, like, what you're doing? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Why are you walking towards me like that? You, like, I said a joke about your wife. Like, I'm already knowing, like, this dude ain't coming up here to shake my hand. You know what I'm saying? Like, I'm going to push you off. Like, what you doing, bro? Yeah. kick you kick you like I'm gonna figure like we would have been tussling he walked up there kind of like he didn't walk up there very hostile looking he kind of walked up casual and then he kind of turned the other way and then he just came out of it don't yeah yeah but what are you doing walking up will smith is coming up here yeah what I'm like will smith come up here I just had a joke about your wife yeah yeah didn't did jada used to date so like Tupac or something yeah she dated Tupac yeah because they did that movie together there's there's a there's a there's a
Starting point is 00:43:23 A letter. Can you pull that up? There's a letter that Willow wrote Tupac saying Tupac, can you come back? My mom misses you. What? See if you can pull that up. Willow's letter to Tupac.
Starting point is 00:43:40 What's the headline? Yeah, find it better. I'm going to get a drink real quick. So it's like if Will Smith has to live in this image of Tupac, then it can be a very fucked up. Do you think it was like he looked at Jada? She gave him that look and he was like, fuck, I got it.
Starting point is 00:43:55 Do you think it was like the look? absolutely yeah right yeah she gave me yeah they're sparkling or still not just regular you want spark I don't think I have any sparklings cool I think she gave him that look yeah she definitely did yeah everybody who dates women know that a woman has a certain
Starting point is 00:44:14 is this a letter dear Tupac I know you are alive someplace I think that my mommy really misses you can you please come back can you come back so many so mommy and me can be happy. I wish you were here. I love, I really do love Willow.
Starting point is 00:44:36 Willow. So how much does this woman talk about Tupac where your daughter? Right, where your daughter knows something like that. And that's at a young age. That's crazy, bro. You think Tupac still alive? Could be his auntie down in Cuba.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Wasn't his mom like a black panther? His mom was a black panther and she was involved in some conspiracy where there was like they were all, there was like a, what did they do that they shot up a grocery store? There was something, I can't remember. And there was like a, there was a fucking,
Starting point is 00:45:07 so there was a guy that was in the Black Panthers. I think it was a white guy. I could be wrong, but he was working with them for years. And he basically convinced them all to like plot some sort of scheme to either rob or shoot up. a grocery store or like a like a retail store and that guy who convinced them all to do it because they went on trial for it that guy ended up being like a CIA agent or an FBI agent
Starting point is 00:45:37 yeah I think I heard something into it yeah I mean um there's some good interviews I can see you bro you watch vlad tv no you should watch those I've seen him it's hard to walk bro they're weird they're just like just only watch the ones where he gets like don't watch the entertainers watch the people you don't really know. Like he has this guy called... He's a big fan of Loud TV. Yeah, I can't... I've been watching him since a long time ago.
Starting point is 00:46:04 Mob James, you know, Mob James interview? Yeah, that sounds really familiar. So Mob James used to be Shug Night Security. Oh, yeah, okay. Tupac basically was a theatrical daspian who ended up around gangbangers and should never have had that persona.
Starting point is 00:46:24 Yeah, he went to, like, arts dance school in New York. That's where him and Jada met. Yeah. Yeah, there was interviews of him when he was, like, in high school where he was, like, talking about stuff and, like, talking about culture, and he, like, sounded really smart and articulate. I mean, you can hear it in this music. You can hear it in this music.
Starting point is 00:46:41 Oh, for sure. And then he was a backup dancer for Digital Underground. If you love diving into culture and comedy, like on Danny Jones podcast, playoff hockey is right up your alley. NHL on T&T has the best coverage, making every game feel intense and unpredictable. Playoff hockey is a different level, overtime, big hits, and no-one coasts. The studio crew, with Paul Bissonette cracking jokes and Wayne Gretzky breaking things down, makes it even more fun to watch. Every shift matters, and the personalities keep things lively.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Watch the Stanley Cup playoffs on TNT, TBS, True TV, and HBO Max. became a rap. The humpdy dance. The humpdy hump. He was a backup dancer in that group. Do the Humpty hump. Are you big into conspiracies? Or do you not pay attention to them?
Starting point is 00:47:36 I like them. You do like them? I just like different approaches to stuff. So it's like, let me hear your opinion on this. You know what I'm saying? I like different approaches to shoot. What's your favorite conspiracy theory? The one that made me laugh.
Starting point is 00:47:52 What's your favorite? One that made me laugh was that, COVID was made by 5G. How did that one go? Yeah, tell me more. I didn't know. Oh, bro. It was black folks.
Starting point is 00:48:06 They're like, 5G makes COVID. They're putting up all these 5G towers, and that's why we got COVID right now. And the towers are somehow like spraying COVID out of them. Sometimes you feeling so bad to be black because the shit they'd be saying. I'm like, so what did 4G make?
Starting point is 00:48:22 Yeah. If 5G made code, what the 4G make? H-I-V. Sometimes I'd be mad at my people, though. I'd be like, what the fuck are you saying? Like Kanye? Yeah, how do you feel about Kanye right now? Kanye's wild.
Starting point is 00:48:39 As a person that, you know, all of us probably battle mental health issues, I can recognize a manic episode. Yeah. Definitely. You could see the difference between some of his interviews when he's like normal. I don't want to use the word normal, but it's just. regular and then it's like sometimes he's just going on go look at his rogan interview yeah then go look at his uh drink champs interview yeah his rogan i really liked actually and i saw that clip with rogan when he was like you got to approach conier like lex did that guy lex i don't know if you guys saw
Starting point is 00:49:11 that interview yeah i watched that one and it was like lex didn't play no games no and he was like you can't just call him jews he's like you want to call him out you got to call him by their full name call him by their name and they can you can tell he was like stumped he was like all right but if i do it will you help me he he doesn't the problem with conier and i used to have a friend who's worked with conier and conier only likes yes man around him so it's like any stupid and i'm a big congey fan i still wear his shoes you know yeah and it's like uh any stupid idea he comes up with you have these yes man that support it you don't have anybody to challenge you you don't have anybody to be like hey motherfucker yeah what the fuck are you doing you're
Starting point is 00:49:52 about to lose your legacy. He needs a real person by his side. And everybody needs that. And for me, that's my family. You know what I'm saying? Or the girls that I date. Like, I date real women. I date women that are so far away from entertainment.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Yeah. You know? I don't want you to even know who the fuck I am. Yeah. You don't watch YouTube? Good. Yeah, I never understood how some people like to have, like, girlfriends or wives that are in the same business of their
Starting point is 00:50:22 in or do the same shit that they're in, I'm like the complete opposite. I could never stand being around somebody like myself. Yeah, exactly. So. But yeah, brother. Did you watch Ari's special, the Jew, the Jew special? Bro, that shit was so fucking funny, bro.

Starting point is 00:55:30 Yeah, bro. Oh, man. So going back to your childhood, you were, how early was it that you started like performing doing comedy? Like how young were you? Like 16 and 17? Really? In Georgia?
Starting point is 00:55:43 Yeah. That's really. Hosting talent shows at the high school. So cool. Performing at poetry lounges. Like by the age 15, 16, I knew either my future was NFL or entertainment. Really? Did you play football too?
Starting point is 00:55:59 Yeah. Yeah. What position did you play? Defensive tackle? Yeah, I want to take me. Run somebody over. Yeah, but I'm still pretty strong. I'm still a bull.
Starting point is 00:56:12 You know what's crazy? I had an opportunity to go to UCF. I wish to just pay I would have went. Really? Yeah. I applied to go to UCF. I didn't get in. Damn, I'm bad.
Starting point is 00:56:21 My bad. They offered it to you. I actually tried and failed. Football? No, no, no. So you should play the sport? I wanted to go to film school there. They had like the best film school, like one of the best film schools in the country.
Starting point is 00:56:33 Shit, what did UCLA? Yeah, them and UCF are like the two biggest. Yeah, you should have like, fuck Francis Ford Copeland's daughter. Yeah. I had the dude from, the guy, the dude who, you know, ever heard of the Blair Witch Project? Of course. The guy who made that, he wrote me a letter recommendation even to get in there because he's like one of their most successful alumni. They still didn't let me in.
Starting point is 00:56:54 Yeah, but that's not like a, you know what I'm saying? It wasn't Spielberg. That's not like a Blair Wish project. No, but if you look at it money-wise, like they made the most, they were the most profitable. Right. And it was innovative. They were the first people, they were like not necessarily. POV style.
Starting point is 00:57:11 Yeah, yeah. Like the film, like the cinematography wasn't anything special, right? It was all fucking the actors with shitty camera. But the idea of found footage and making it the marketing behind it. It was the first time it's ever been done. I remember that being in elementary school, bro. I'm like, oh. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Yeah, yeah. As the first movie. It was the first movie where you would go to the theater thinking it was real shit. It could have been real, yeah. People didn't know it was fake. Yeah, it cost them 35 grand to make the whole thing. What does that say? It's 249 million.
Starting point is 00:57:43 Globally. And that was years ago. God, damn. That's like $380 million now. That's like crazy profit, bro. What does that guy do now? I think he works for some company in Europe now. He made a bunch of horror flicks after that
Starting point is 00:58:00 But they never really hit like the Blair Witch Yeah but they've had like multiple Blair Witches Were those? Yeah there was a couple. No no so what they did after the first one They sold it They sold the franchise to Lionsgate And they bought it they bought like the rights to Blair Witch And then they ended up like fucking greedy
Starting point is 00:58:14 Fucker Why don't you just retire? Why are you still working? You make a lick like a quarter of a billion dollar lick Off of how much was? That's a lick off 35 grand 35 grand Oh crazy
Starting point is 00:58:26 They were still in college when they made it I mean, bro, we can legit right now film a movie on our iPhones. Yeah, that's a way better quality. We can film a movie on our iPhones to have it, you know, professionally edited. Mm-hmm. Yeah. I mean, Ari Schaffir shoots his podcast on iPhone. I saw that.
Starting point is 00:58:45 I saw that. So, I mean, that's crazy, bro. That's a lot of work. We would have to, you know, aim it towards the titty boppers, you know, the teeny bumpers to high schools. But we can make a lot of money. what do you think what do you think it is about like the whole podcast thing blowing up
Starting point is 00:59:04 that like it seems like I don't know we talked about it before but it seems like the whole like comedy community and the podcasting community are super entwined and like all of the like everyone in the comedy scene they all have podcasts and they all go on each other's podcast how does the podcast
Starting point is 00:59:20 shit help comedy well I mean bro podcast for a comedian is kind of like having a business card people fall in love with your voice they fall in love with your essence they fall in love with who you are they don't they could want more
Starting point is 00:59:38 they can almost care less about your jokes so they just want to hear you talk even if you're rambling that's why ASMR is popular they fall in love with these people sounds you know what I'm saying so it's like you have to and then I mean it's so profitable
Starting point is 00:59:55 bro you do YouTube you know know how much late bro yeah no i know but still i'll turn my youtube into a six figure of your business before uh good for you man before it got so big though like every it started with comedians i feel like didn't it
Starting point is 01:00:11 didn't it just start with like true comedians before they made money if anybody i can say it's the podcast king i say it's rogan and red band you know back when they were doing podcast before it was even popular you know what i'm saying people like what the fuck is this But does it help you when you do podcast, even though, like, you probably don't plan out podcasts.
Starting point is 01:00:31 You probably just kind of like talk shit. But does it help you with your comedy and like, does it help you with your thinking process and your creative process when you do podcast? Like, oh, shit, we were talking about something good. Maybe, you know, something we talked about during that podcast, I can expand on that. I mean, comedians can just talk. Yeah. That's what you do. We can talk for a long time.
Starting point is 01:00:51 So, I mean, you're, you know, a new fan is a. a new fan. One new person who can buy merch or buy tickets, I love you. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I might reach, you know, every podcast is a new audience. Especially if you're going to podcast is not a comedy podcast. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:01:12 Because now I get to see real life people who might not watch comedy. Right. And now they're like, oh, I got to go see this guy. Yeah, I got to go see this guy at a comedy show. Right. So, yeah, I love doing podcasts. You know, I like to talk. And I definitely like podcasts when it's not comedians because I don't want to be funny.
Starting point is 01:01:32 I got a-all day-day. I got a match your fucking funny. You know what I'm saying? I don't want to do that shit. Yeah. So, yeah, it's funny.
Starting point is 01:01:38 I really liked your podcast with Duncan. That was funny as shit. Oh, damn, bro. We found that a while ago. Yeah. You saw that? I listened to it. Yeah,
Starting point is 01:01:46 yeah. We found out of his own. It was good. He's an interesting dude. Duncan's crazy. He's an interesting motherfucker. Yeah, he is, bro. Duncan's out of his fucking mind, bro.
Starting point is 01:01:56 He was talking about he got contacted by like DARPA for doing some some fucking conspiracy podcast. He said after he did a podcast with Joe talking about conspiracy theories. What's DARPA? DARPA is like, I forget what it stands for, but they're like basically the CIA. Like the defense, look up what DARPA means. I kind of remember it, but I don't remember. He's a Buddhist too, right? Defense.
Starting point is 01:02:19 Advanced research projects, angels. Yeah, they reached out to him after he did a podcast talking about conspiracy theories. You talked, I thought he talked about that on your podcast, maybe. He said it, like, briefly. But I'm saying that podcast was so long. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've had so much other information coming my head since then. Like, I remember it, but it was so long ago.
Starting point is 01:02:37 That was like, that was before your podcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I think so, yeah. When did you become Buddhist? It's more of a mindset, bro. It's just like, you know, if you think about the future, you're anxious. If you think about the past, you're depressed. So it's like living the now.
Starting point is 01:02:57 I got Buddhistan on my hand to remind me, like just to live in the now. You know what I'm saying? So for me, it's more of a mindset, spirituality. I treat you how I want to be treated and just have respect for all living things. What got you interested in it? How did you discover it? So there was a point in my life where I was not sure about spirituality and not sure about what was what. and, you know, like, I feel like I look at God every time I look in the mirror.
Starting point is 01:03:27 I feel like I'm an expression of God. And Buddhism just kind of align with my values at that time in my life. You know what I'm saying? So it's like, I like this. And it's like, okay, it's metaphorically speaking. Like, when Buddha was born, everywhere he stepped, lotus flowers bloomed. And it's like, okay, do I believe that? Kind of like, you know, Jesus stuff.
Starting point is 01:03:48 You know, so it's like, it aligned with me. Yeah, Buddha, I think, Buddhism is the one religion where they actually don't believe in like a deity or a god which I think is interesting I mean but I feel like our religions are the same like it's based on morality it's based on faith and you know a lot of a lot of people you know because I consider myself a Republican and a conservative and they're like oh you're Republican conservative when you don't believe in Jesus it's like I do believe in Jesus I respect the story you know what I'm saying A lot of religious deities have the same story.
Starting point is 01:04:25 You know, there's Krishna. It has like 65 different versions of Jesus. Krishna, Surrapis Bay, I'm in Iraq. You know, if you do your research and it's like, can we discredit all those? How can we discredit anybody who's living off of the same thing you're living off of, which is faith? Yeah. So it's like, I can't down this man because he believes on what he believes in. Yeah, as long as he's not trying to push it on other people.
Starting point is 01:04:47 That's my whole thing. I'm not trying to convert you. Right. It's not like Scientology I believe in God I believe in Jesus I believe in Muhammad I believe in all of it
Starting point is 01:04:55 You know So it's like that's That's just my level The weird thing about The part of Ari especially talks about Like Judaism Jews they only believe in one version of the story Like the original version of the Bible
Starting point is 01:05:07 Yeah But there's like 65 different versions of Christianity Like Southern Baptist Baptist Fucking Episcopal Yeah There's so many different fucking weird versions of it Yeah
Starting point is 01:05:18 Yeah Yeah, I try not to think too much of that. I just try to stay funny. Yeah. Think about being funny and not really wrap my mind and that too much because we don't know. We just don't know. And how I feel about it, there's one mountain top. However you get there is your choice.
Starting point is 01:05:37 You may choose a harder way. You might choose easier way. But we're all going to get there. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. Have you ever heard of, I don't know, I was this podcast I was listening to, too, I've talked about it before, but there's a, I think it's called like the IDG podcast. It's like the super, not super, but pretty like right wing podcast where this girl, I think she's a comedian,
Starting point is 01:05:59 but she also does fitness. And she was talking about horseshoe theory with Baptists. And she compares Baptists to bootleggers. So you know how like in some towns where you can't serve alcohol, you can't sell alcohol on Sundays? In Texas. there's towns in Texas that you can't serve alcohol you can't buy hard liquor on Sunday in Texas Connecticut was like that too
Starting point is 01:06:24 Really? You can buy like beer and wine But you can't buy in all of Texas Well in Austin it might be all in time Wow I didn't fucking know that I remember moving to Connecticut and I went to buy beer on like a Sunday Or liquor or something and they were like you can't Can't buy it today and I was like what That's fucking crazy
Starting point is 01:06:40 Crazy goodbye till 3 a.m. I was in Portland bro and like I remember they shut the liquor stores down like at 9 I'm like bitch crack is legal here how the fuck can you tell me I can't get a fucking bottle of tequila that's insane yeah but that's weird that is still
Starting point is 01:07:00 a thing though like and she was anyways back to what I was talking about the horseshoe theory if you look at the Baptists and the bootleggar like the idea of horseshoe theory is that there's two ends of a continuum like too far like left and right wing, like the farthest version of left compared to the farthest version of right. And instead of it being just like a continuum that goes forever, it's more of like a
Starting point is 01:07:23 horseshoe that bends and the two extremes are closer together, like a horseshoe is. And she compared a Baptist to a bootleggar. Like, what does alcohol being banned on Sunday? How does that benefit a bootleger? Because you can't buy it on Sunday so they can stock up on all the booze. and they could sell it for a profit on Sunday. Yeah, I know people in Texas who sell alcohol really marked up on Sundays. And then she goes, so now look at a Baptist.
Starting point is 01:07:58 They don't want alcohol to be sold on Sundays for moral reasons, for religious reasons. So she compares, she goes, now look at extreme leftists and the KKK. What do they both want? They both want segregation. because she was comparing there was like a school in Colorado. It's a great bro. You got to find it.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Look up like the, if you just type in Horseshoe Theory IDG podcast, she explains it great. There's a school in Colorado who had play nights on their playground. It was children of color only play night. See, and it's segregation. And they were like,
Starting point is 01:08:42 and they interviewed the high, the elementary school about it. Like, why did you guys do this? We're like, we wanted to be inclusive to, you know, the families of color. And we wanted no white children to be there because we wanted it to be like the parents of color so they could interact better and be more open with each other. That's some shit they just did at, I was reading an article about some college where, can I get a movie? Yeah, yeah. Where they're doing like the premiere of the New Black Panther.
Starting point is 01:09:11 Like no white kids were invited. Hey, what the fuck? Yeah, it's a weird idea, right? It's like I can see what they're trying to do, but it don't really make sense. At all. At all. Thank you, bro. Yeah, I'll find it on my phone and all those texts.
Starting point is 01:09:31 Yeah, but you heard what I was saying about that college where they, like, had the premiere of Black Panther and they didn't want any white kids there? No. Stupid shit, man. I never heard about that. What college was that? I'm probably some college with not a lot of money. But it's like, bro, like once motherfuckers understand that we are humans. That's it.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Can you find a skeletal remain and know if they were black or white? A skeleton? I mean, can you find a skeletal remain and know if they were black or white or Mexican? Outside of size. Yeah, I don't think so. Probably not. That's what I'm saying, man.
Starting point is 01:10:15 I'm going to find this video. It's fucking, it's worth it. The fuck do it matter for? I look at you as a human. Yeah. At the end of the day, bro, like, racism came for, racism came from. Bro, YouTube fucking, like, shadow bandit or something,
Starting point is 01:10:35 because I can't fucking find it. Probably. But racism came from a competition of resources. Yeah, just some sort of a position. of power over somebody. You know what I'm saying? Apocalypse? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:50 I saw that in a movie theater when I was a kid, bro. I'll never forget that. That movie was, I remember watching that movie in the movie theater. I didn't know what it was about even. I went with this girl. It was crazy.
Starting point is 01:11:02 What a meaning, deep meaningful movie and shit. People of their same color came and did that shit to them. Yeah. That dude's fuck. Is your biggest enemy really somebody with a different skin complexion? I don't think so. Yeah
Starting point is 01:11:17 Especially in the black community Who's likely And it's just like Statistically Who's likely to injure existence As a black person Another black person Who's likely to rob you
Starting point is 01:11:34 Who's likely to steal from you? And that's why I just don't get caught up in that shit Yeah Just Google Sorry I'm like on a different wavelength right now Google that school in Colorado That movie was sick School in Colorado that had like play night for children of color only.
Starting point is 01:11:55 I think I remember hearing this. I wouldn't even take my daughter there. And I hate Colorado because of- You hate Colorado? The altitude, bro. Oh, yeah. I mean, that fucks me up. I got altitude sickness there.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Me too, bro. What about the people that did take their kids there that night? What, like, what type of people are they? Look at this. Are they? Denver Elementary School is facing backlash for planning a families of color playground. Read the fucking sign. How crazy you put that.
Starting point is 01:12:19 These are the same. What guy put those letters up there on that sign? These are the same people that would take their kids to a drag brunch. A drag brunch? You didn't see that? I remember hearing that. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:34 He knows. Yeah. They brought like drag queens to the school for the kids or some shit. Oh my God, bro. That's fucking insane. I would not show up to that shit. What about that school is that, man? my daughter loves all people of color.
Starting point is 01:12:51 Both of my daughters, people of all colors. Your daughters live in L.A.? Yeah. Activist Pimps, Moms Blast School Board for promoting family-friendly Halloween drag show. Yeah, bro, I just think the pendulum is going to swing on this wacky shit, man. I think it's just going to swing back and kind of get normal. You saw that fucking non-binary person that works for Biden?
Starting point is 01:13:16 Yes. Still in suitcases. Oh my God, bro. That was so fucking, that person is a very weird looking person. That motherfucker at first said it was an accident. Then he was on. Then did it again.
Starting point is 01:13:29 Yeah, yeah, then did it again. So they're just hiring people because they're like non-binary or because they were dressed in. His fucking, the black lady, the Haitian that works for him is what a lesbian? Is she? I don't know. And she is. She gets eight up.
Starting point is 01:13:46 at the White House correspondents. I saw this old clip of Joe Biden when he was a lot younger in politics, too, like totally against gay marriage. Oh, yeah, he changed up his whole tune. He switched, like, totally switched. He said some fucked up shit about the war on drugs, too. He said some fucked up shit about black people. He was, like, totally the opposite.
Starting point is 01:14:04 With his daughters, right? Well, his daughters about black guys and some shit. Yeah, maybe. It was in front of Congress, but he, like, full on said the N-word in front of Congress, like decades ago. They just change it up, bro. My fuckers change their words, but they don't change their essence. No.
Starting point is 01:14:19 It's all for the money. Yeah. That's it. Yeah. Whatever the flavor of the fucking year is, they just go along with it. If we do it right in America, we reelect Trump in 2024. You think that's the right thing to do? Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:14:32 Really? And then elect Desantis 2028, 23. Shout out. You really think it'll be good if they elect Trump again? Yeah. Really? Why? Because, bro, he ain't.
Starting point is 01:14:43 You don't think he's kind of fucking... He don't give a fuck about either side. He really doesn't. He really doesn't. He'll shake shit up, bro. At the least, he shakes it up. Yeah, he makes you figure shit out. Elis is different than what we've got going on now.
Starting point is 01:14:58 How much unity was there under Trump's presidency? Unity. It was better than right now. I feel like there was more division under Trump presidency. Yeah, but you had two strong sides. Now it just seems like. Yeah, Trump, nobody even respects anything. There might have been more unity like with the right and the left.
Starting point is 01:15:16 and the left might have each been unified together, but there was definitely a huge divide. You just got a dirty pawn. Now everybody hates Biden. Yeah. I mean, nobody, nobody defends Biden. Back when Trump was president, you only had anti-Trumpers and Trumpers.
Starting point is 01:15:31 Right. Exactly. Right. I'm cool with an anti-Trumper. You don't like money, though. Yeah. How much is gas around this way? Four.
Starting point is 01:15:41 How much was it two years ago? Two-fifty. Yeah, two inch. change. Okay. Has, has, has, has your wages increased that much? No. I'll just be wondering. Plus the media, bro. The media was making so much money when Trump was president. There was kids that, not kids, but there was people like on YouTube, independent journalists that were making their whole career off just talking shit about Trump. Like they, they were doing more numbers, more revenue than ever before because of Trump. Because he was just feeding them all that meat.
Starting point is 01:16:16 He's a beast. He is, man. He is pretty wild. I go see a Trump one-man show. Yeah. 100%. 1,200 to take it, give it to me. Right.
