Starting point is 00:00:00 The Donnell Rawlings Show, live in your face! Fuck out bitch ass nigga, you'll never take my place! so That's right, ladies and gentlemen, I want to walk you to the Danielnie O'Rollins Show. When you hear this music, you know I'm about to do a cheesy introduction. I had the pleasure to be invited to do my podcast live from the W Hotel in Hollywood, California. This is a Netflix is a joke presentation. I want to start by saying I'm pissed. Wait, what? What happened?
Starting point is 00:01:27 The level of disrespect. First off, this is supposed to be a bucket list situation. To be able to do a podcast on a rooftop in Hollywood, doing the biggest comedy festival in the history of comedy festivals. And then you tell people that, you know what? Netflix rolled the dice on me. Right? They said we're going to give you a podcast.
Starting point is 00:01:49 And it's going to be exceptional. And for some reason, looks like I'm limited with friends. Looks like when you call people to show up, they don't really show up. It's the biggest festival over what? How many shows? How many shows? Sound guy, you can help me. You had jokes behind.
Starting point is 00:02:12 I think there's like a. How many shows? A hundred shows. I think it's like 126 shows, right? A hundred and. Something like that. 26 shows, which means it's probably over a hundred comedians, right? Nobody came to my podcast.
Starting point is 00:02:28 I've been disrespected the whole week. My publicist didn't come to my show. Lori is here today. You know people that help you with your image and everything, that get you there on time? Am I allowed to say this? And I want you to cry again. she be on time? Am I allowed to say, I'm not allowed to say this? And I want you to cry again.
Starting point is 00:02:50 No, I'm not going to make you cry again. Oh, man. Hold on, one second. I got a friend. Hello? Friend? Friend? Friend, hello? Are you my friend? Nobody's still up. Okay, back to my publicist not coming to my
Starting point is 00:03:06 show she came to my show and she didn't even fake like usually like like if somebody's late for the show they'll fake and say something like oh you're always funny i said that to someone yeah you like this oh another good job she looked me right in my face and say i wasn't here at least she's honest no she was honest and then she thought i she's honest. No, she was honest. And then she thought I was going to be upset because she was upset. Because publicists know everything about your life. So it's not too often that you get a chance to have one up on them. So I want her to feel the pain for as long as our relationship lasts.
Starting point is 00:03:38 She did a great job here today. She did a great job. No, no, I want to give, I want to, everybody's been disrespecting me. I said I was hungry. I ordered french fries, right? And my french fries, this is what, nobody caught this. Before I could touch one of my fucking french fries, you was five fries in.
Starting point is 00:03:56 Didn't make eye contact. Did you say, Donnell, can I have it? You just, it was like, you just attacked it. It was just like, wah! They're so good. I know, but they're mine. But they're French fries. They are good, but they're mine.
Starting point is 00:04:12 All right, back to what's going on. This is a Netflix is a joke festival. I had the opportunity to perform how many shows? How many shows did I do? Two so far. Two with Dave, then I got fired. I mean, not fired, but just. You didn't let go.
Starting point is 00:04:30 No, not let go. It's like getting cut on a team. You don't. Stop calling me. Get in here. Hello. Can you remember what I was saying? Hello?
Starting point is 00:04:43 I can't. Because he remember he can't hear you. Hello? Yeah, can you hear me? I can't. Because he can't hear you. Hello? Yeah, can you hear me? I can hear you, but you called during the podcast. I'm going to hang up the phone. No, no, don't hang up the phone. Say something disrespectful. Say something disrespectful like everybody's disrespecting me on this podcast.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Oh, okay. Well, listen. Fred Sanford, what I was going to ask you was your shirt. Do you want to bring your shirts with me? Yes. I want to look nice. Okay. Ball.
Starting point is 00:05:08 Yep. All right. Tuxedo shirt I'm going to have, and I'm going to have something for the white suit. White suit? Okay. All right. Ball. Sounds good.
Starting point is 00:05:17 Enjoy yourself. Yo, stop with this fucking sexy-ass voice, too. Get the fuck off my phone, bro. No, what I was saying. What was I saying? You were saying that you were let go from the show. No, I wasn't let go. Like, you didn't cut from the team.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Like, you know how it is. When you're supposed to be on the football team or the basketball team, and then you go look at that list, and then you don't see your name, then you flip it over like maybe they forgot it. That's what happened to me. I wasn't on other shows. But to that, I did have the opportunity. That's one of the – Jesus Christ, God, why me?
Starting point is 00:05:45 They're looking for you. No fucking helicopter, nothing. As soon as I start this punk-ass podcast, everything going. It's going to be the... And I don't even know who this guy is. Who is this guy? Disrespect We?
Starting point is 00:05:56 You want to be on the show, sir? You sure? Oh, you brought the man in. What's your name? You work here? Come here for one second. Sit right here. Sit down.
Starting point is 00:06:05 All right. Is this a level of disrespect, right? What's your name? You work here? Come here for one second. Sit right here. Sit down. Is this a level of disrespect? You order some food for yourself. And then before you even have a chance to eat your food, someone aggressively goes in and starts eating your fries. Is that a level of disrespect? Yes. But what if she's me? No.
Starting point is 00:06:24 Oh, damn. Get the fuck out of here, girl. Get out of here, No. Oh, damn. Get the fuck out of here, yo. Get out of here, man. Get your me too-y ass out of here, man. Old freak ass motherfucker. You supposed to be on the guy's side. Nobody's on my side. Back to the show.
Starting point is 00:06:35 So the opening show, the opening night, it was Dave Chappelle at the Hollywood Bowl. This festival, they're having shows in all the comedy spaces. I think Bill Burr did one at the Forum. What's the fluffy dude? What's his name? What's his name? Yeah,
Starting point is 00:06:51 this motherfucker be selling out stadiums. He did a couple shows. A lot of people did shows. I happened to be on the first show with Dave and it felt good. You did a great job.
Starting point is 00:07:02 No, I didn't. I destroyed it. Yeah, can you do the line that you, can you do that or are you saving it? No, that line, I didn't. I've destroyed it. Yeah, can you do the line? Can you do that or are you saving it? No, that line, no. This is so fucked up.
Starting point is 00:07:12 I called it the bar of the night, right? And that's safe to say. It's no secret that he was there. Pete Davidson was at the show with the whole Kardashian crew. And he did a show. It was very, very funny. And I think I went on after him. And I just, I felt like there was an elephant in the room.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Because it's something about anywhere Pete is or the Kardashians, you just think Kanye might pop up. Out of nowhere. Like just out of a helicopter out of nowhere with a hoodie on, with them big-ass fire department boots on, man. man what kind of boots i know that nigga feed steak that nigga wore that shit for two weeks straight right so and no disrespect to kanye anybody but funny it's funny i say it's too it could a joke could be too soon but it's never too soon for a funny observation my observation was i was nervous i thought kanye was gonna pop up so when i I went on stage, I said, oh, man, was I the only person waiting for Kanye West to run out of the audience, smack Pete Davis, and say, keep my wife's pussy out your fucking mouth?
Starting point is 00:08:19 I mean, he wasn't wearing a button-up suit either. Hey, the funniest thing, I think after that, the Kardashians left after that. They didn't stay. Did anybody monitor that? Yeah, they did leave. But they left? Over that joke? Except for Chris.
Starting point is 00:08:34 But I'm pretty sure. Was there anything false in what I said? Facts. No, I'm just saying, I'm pretty sure we're all adults and sometimes pussies get in... In people's mouths? In people's mouths. You know what I'm saying? I'm pretty sure my friend Marsha, I know what pussies
Starting point is 00:08:48 been in your mouth before. Sound engineer, I'm sure pussies been in your mouth all in nasty jokes. So it wasn't like, the statement wasn't far-fetched. It was the truth. Keep my wife's pussy out your motherfucking mouth. I thought it was funny. When is a joke that's that funny?
Starting point is 00:09:04 It was hilarious. It was a joke of the night. Crowd went wild. Everybody looked at me, like, at the end of it, they looked at me, they was like this. You have no cut card, you have no manners, and you don't give a fuck. But that's one thing about comedy. I think comedy is at the point now, and I'm glad we have
Starting point is 00:09:20 in this festival, because whenever I do interviews, first thing people say is like, how is it doing comedy, doing cancel culture can't say this you can't you can't say that and i've heard some people talk like comedy feels weird now because it's so many limitations so many restrictions and they asked me like donna how do you feel about i said council culture don't affect real motherfuckers real motherfuck are not going to change for anybody. Either you deal with it or you don't deal with it. And even what I said with me, with that joke,
Starting point is 00:09:51 and any comedians listening now, we all know a set that we're going to do, we want to do. No better feeling when something happens in the moment. And that joke, when you're like, it's 50-50, you're like, oh, man, this could go either fucking way. But if it goes the right way, it's going to be explosive. And I think this festival is contributing to getting comedy back on track. Anytime you got Jim Jefferies on the lineup, Jimmy Carr,
Starting point is 00:10:22 them motherfuckers, they say what the fuck they want. They the real ones. I also think with the cancel culture, people have to be smarter with their jokes. They can't just say things like how you do it, how Dave does it. You have to be intelligent about the joke. It's still funny, but it's kind of elongated a bit. That's what she said.
Starting point is 00:10:38 Not like that, though. Yo, she ate my fries and doing like elongated. How big do you need it? Did y'all see that am i the only person saw that she kept describing it got longer and longer and elongated and it got long yet but people i think that um it's going back to saying what the fuck you want but the the fucked up thing about that is you hear a lot of comedians say uh freedom of speech i should be able to say what i want yeah but you still have to be responsible for what you say.
Starting point is 00:11:05 Yeah, you have to take the repercussions of what you say. People that's fighting just to be able to say anything is not saying nothing. It's stupid shit to me. Say something. Just because you can say whatever you want. You want to go in front of an audience that's just cursed, make no points, not be funny? Exactly. You have to be smarter. When are you going to do comedy? I don't want to ask
Starting point is 00:11:21 that. I just, I can't stay up late like you guys. My body is not made for that life. What the fuck? You can't stay up late? Are you the last one to leave all the time? Who the fuck are you talking to? What is going on here? We stay up late. You've told me three nights. Okay, Donnell, talk to you later. Bye.
Starting point is 00:11:38 Probably help me get in the car. But then, like, after three days or so, then I die. And so, I just, I can't do it every night. With comedians, I really respect being able to just stay up every night and really go for what you want. I don't have that enthusiasm about stand-up to do that. I'd rather go home and go to bed. But you have that enthusiasm about having babies, though, right?
Starting point is 00:12:02 Yeah, I do. No, you do. I do. I'll stay up for that. I've never seen somebody plot out having babies. Like, it's going to happen Thursdays. No, Donna, I can't do the podcast.
Starting point is 00:12:12 I'll be getting impregnated at that time. I'll be getting the cup dropped. At the office. We're going to go to the office. Stop eating my motherfucking french fries. They're so good. They're crunchy and soft in the middle. I'm not going to keep saying
Starting point is 00:12:23 that's what she said. But you know one thing I really... You don't want it soft in But you know one thing I really appreciate about this festival is being able to see your peers, people that you work with. And then it's just something that's exciting about people flying in from different states, different countries. Different countries. And to be – the best feeling I have is knowing that my name aligns with some of the best people that do it. And we got one more show. We got the Snoop Dogg show.
Starting point is 00:12:51 Snoop Dogg is doing, I wonder if Snoop is going to do jokes. You think Snoop could do jokes? Snoop could do anything. He's just everywhere. He hangs out with Martha Stewart. I mean. You know what? You think he Oh. You think Snoop,. You think Snoop.
Starting point is 00:13:07 No. Did Snoop hit Martha Stewart? I don't know. I think they might have had a threesome with another woman. She did. Oh, she did the. The nanu nanu. Nanu nanu.
Starting point is 00:13:18 No, but she definitely likes his dick. That's what I heard. Oh. They got a commercial. You didn't see that? Yeah. That's the smartest shit. That little pipe. That little thing.
Starting point is 00:13:27 It's so weird to see. Remember one time we talked about marijuana. It was all just like a stone of culture. People didn't respect it. You could lose deals. But Snoop smokes everywhere and have the dopest deal fucking with Bic and Martha Stewart. I wonder how that relationship
Starting point is 00:13:43 how do you meet Martha? I wonder what they... I think, wasn't he on one of her shows before she went to jail? And that's how they met? You know what we never hear about? Martha Stewart doing a bid. They just forgot about it.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Mike Tyson, this motherfucker be anywhere, like, yeah, convicted, telling Mike Tyson. White people, they do their bids, it's like it never fucking happened. But she not no snitch she's not no six nine she took that she did that time what do you think it was like for martha stewart she was probably making all type of shit in there yeah making everyone feel comfortable in at home did you have you ever gotten a a gift from a motherfucking in prison no i've sent gifts what type of prison what type of fucking jail you sent a gift
Starting point is 00:14:29 yeah like care packages and stuff what was it for a guy yeah like ramen you was waiting for him to come home that was your way of saying that
Starting point is 00:14:35 you gonna start fucking before you come home you're like as long as you happy I'm happy what was the gift I know I just the care package
Starting point is 00:14:42 you know the ramen you do like the instant coffee and then some soap and stuff like that i had motherfuckers they made uh picture frames out of newport uh thing oh nice yeah the motherfuckers get creative as shit in jail what was the guy was you dating the guy that no he's just a longtime friend that's been in and out man women love have different ways to. Back in the day in high school, yes, he was by We Were Loving Basketball. That was like we were called.
Starting point is 00:15:08 We Were Loving Basketball. That was that guy. You know, if no one knows, I was an all-city, all-star basketball player, blah, blah, blah. But what the streets are saying
Starting point is 00:15:16 is that when a woman says, my friend, for the most part, that means somebody's pussy is in somebody's mouth. It had been in the past, but not so many times. Why you didn't say that? But it was way in somebody's mouth. It had been in the past, but not so much. Why you didn't say that?
Starting point is 00:15:26 But it was way before my 20s. It's been hella long. Is that a practice of women? They don't answer the question the first time? Right? You got to keep breaking it down until they're like, okay, it was one time we were all drinking. I'm telling you, women always know it. He's just a friend.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Right? He's just a friend. Then you break that shit down. Next thing you know. But we can move categories. Okay, what's but no we could no we could move categories like if he used to be someone i dated now he's my friend so that's the category i'm going to tell you because that's the category he's in could you go back to date no no can we kids people always ask this question can you go back uh and hook up with somebody that you used to hook up with we
Starting point is 00:16:04 talked about this. I don't. You don't? You just leave him dry? Dry as hell. It's not one drunk night. You'd be like, I don't know. We talked about this.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I'd rather go find a one night stand and be good instead of going back to old dick. I want to know why you look me directly in my eyes when you say old dick. You always get so offensive when I say old. Every time I say old, you're like, why are you talking about me, Nikki? The reason why I get upset because all your other words are this way, but when old comes,
Starting point is 00:16:34 you make sure you zoom in on me. So even when I'm cooking... You'll be like, so Donnie, old... That's why. So even when I'm cooking, I'm like, grab the old bae. What is wrong with a motherfucker getting old? Why do people get up so upset about people getting old?
Starting point is 00:16:47 Why do people don't respect age? They make it seem, oh, you're not relevant. Why do people, what is wrong with continuing to live? I don't, I think anything's wrong. I think we get more lives. Motherfuckers get mad you have a perfect old ass nigga. I lived another year, nigga. How are you hating on me?
Starting point is 00:17:01 Keep living. And here's the thing. With youngins, and I've never had this attitude, these motherfuckers act like they not going to get old. It's your boy, Donnie Rollins, a.k.a. The River Ninja. And you know if you've been following this podcast that I've embarked on a lot of things. One of those things, selling merchandise.

Starting point is 00:18:47 Why? Because my history of everyone dying, I just didn't think I would. I don't know. But how they dying? Health issues? All kinds of stuff. But my dad, yeah, he was shot. Fucking around.

Starting point is 00:19:10 I'm going to break it to you. We're all going to die. All of us in here can do a lot of other things. Other things. But the one thing for sure is that I know this sounds really bad. Rico, you're going to die.
Starting point is 00:19:30 I'm not saying now, but at some point it's going to happen. Yeah, they say life. And that's why I say it's important to always celebrate life. Yep. Every fucking day. I don't know why it's so hard for people to live like I'm trying to have the best day every goddamn day.
Starting point is 00:19:50 I'm trying to have the best life. We're all going to die. Life is an STD with 100% death rate. I don't like that. I don't like that. Who wanted a fucking STD? Talk about transition. I'm all up here like that. Who wanted to fucking STD? Talk about transition. I'm all up here like this.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Yeah, you know what they say about the STD, nigga. And this is my point. I think when we lose people, we are sad. Right? And we mourn. But I think the thing that we lose sight of is what that person was to you in your life. In those memories. I always tell people, they're like, you deal with Delphi. Interesting, Donnell.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Because I don't be like, I'm like this. I know this sounds crazy. I'm like, it's fucked up, but it happens. And it's going to happen, but what was that to that person or who were they to me? And try to make the best of it. No, it's absolutely, I agree.
Starting point is 00:20:46 100%. I'm going to be... How long am I going to live? I don't know. You know what? I think about death not in a bad way, but you know what? I think about death, this is real crazy, because if I don't trend when I die, if I don't trend, I need to

They don't even, they just like, I get a picture like, nigga, you know you about to die. I'm about to have a baby. You have to live at least another 40 years so you can see your son get married and have kids and whatnot.

I'm telling you, I'll be doing this shit, like hanging out with the moms after school is out. Just getting mom information. Because you don't learn nothing from dads.
Starting point is 00:24:45 Absolutely not. You don't learn shit. You learn from the moms. And they even start talking to me like this. This is when I know that they accept me as a mom. Because they be talking like this. And Donnell. You know, when the hand comes up, it's like,

Starting point is 00:31:06 That's the fact life of Instagram. Everybody's life is perfect on Instagram. That's the only place where you can choose to have whatever life you want. I tell people all the time, it is so, so, so. Lori, you know this, been a publicist for 30 years. It is so, how easy it is to manipulate the media. It's really easy, isn't it? Lucy is a modern oral nicotine company
Starting point is 00:31:26 that makes nicotine gum lozenges and pouches for adults who are just looking for the best way to enjoy their nicotine. It's a new day. It's a new year. Why not switch to a nicotine product that you can feel good about?

It's interesting because I
Starting point is 00:32:12 got like a love-hate relationship with the internet. You know, I love it where people can get up to speed on what I'm doing in my life and shows and stuff like that. But the part I hate about it is how controlling it is of our minds. It really controls our minds. We all like,
Starting point is 00:32:29 I don't give a fuck. People always say, don't read the comments. I don't know who's strong enough not to read comments. I have to. I be like this. I don't know what level did you get to where you don't read the comments. They always tell me don't read the comments.
Starting point is 00:32:48 And the only reason I read them is because a lot of times they're favorable. A lot of times they're good. And you ever have a good comment day where they give you all thumbs and everything, and then you catch a couple of assholes and they fuck your whole shit up? It does. I see women do that on their page. They'll post something, and they'll go all the way down thank you, thank you baby, thank you, you too love you, love you, love you sis
Starting point is 00:33:09 you too, thumbs up and then one bad comment like fuck this shit I'm about to ban you punk ass bitch it'd be like left arm red though they just skip it, they didn't reply to that one or like that one like all the others I do that but there's no way around it
Starting point is 00:33:22 it's addictive, it's so controlling you can make your life, social media, you can make it whatever you want. Mm-hmm. But nobody makes it fucked up. You'd never, ever see a bad picture.
Starting point is 00:33:33 I feel like Facebook. Never see a woman with a bad picture. Facebook is for people that like to make life fucked up. Old people. You look at me on Facebook. You look at me and write my Facebook, like Facebook.
Starting point is 00:33:44 I'm older yet. No, but I feel like Facebook, people go in there like write my Facebook. Like Facebook. I'm older yet. No, but I feel like Facebook, people go in there like, I was in an accident. My house is this and mine. Everyone complains. That's why I got off of it. Everyone's always complaining and saying the worst thing that ever happened to them on Facebook. And then they want to argue with people too. Yeah, it's just too much.
Starting point is 00:33:58 Yeah. And then the thing about it is you never know who the fuck that person is. You could be arguing with a 13-year-old. So you're not arguing with a person. You just argue. That's what we upset. We're upset about the words that people put into the universe. It's like I can't.
Starting point is 00:34:12 You can't. That's why I get defensive over it. But fuck them. I'm going to learn not to read comments. I think most of those people have people that read the comments for them. Because sometimes I find that there is something in the comments. You reply to every goddamn comment. I do, because there's something in the comments,
Starting point is 00:34:29 like if you're starting a new, like my candles or whatever, if I'm starting something new, I want to hear feedback. It's not that I'm going to take, I'm going to take it with a grain of salt, of course, but if there's a general consensus about something, maybe it's something that you could introspect
Starting point is 00:34:43 and look at what's happening. But if you say fuck them all, then it's fuck them all. Sometimes what people say, you can really get something from it. I just want to say fuck them all. I just want to entertain them. I just want to be in total control of them. I want to say fuck them. If I'm having a good day, I love them. If I'm having a bad day,
Starting point is 00:35:00 fuck them all. That's how I feel. And going back to the level of disrespect I've had on this podcast, we've been talking for 35 minutes still, none of my fucking celebrity friends show up. Fuck them, man. Well, they were out till like 5 a.m. or something. Party. Dave got them face pills. Go to sleep.

Starting point is 00:36:01 I don't know who gives up a show like buster ryan's and split star and they closed it too and another thing well we can talk about it now because i already passed chris brown went up there chris brown went up usher went up but it's just um just the amount of love backstage and the support everybody had because you know um chris brown is always in and out the news you know the bad boy whatever and i didn't really i understand the superstar that he is but it was just i don't know man that the way they embraced him that night yeah it was just like everybody hugged him it felt good and then usher came out did what but usher everywhere he go he he look like he going to do some Usher-y shit.
Starting point is 00:36:48 I was expecting to be on skates. He walks like he skates. Like he rolling skates. Yeah. He talks like he skates. Yeah, he talks like he skates. It's just smooth. I remember the first time I met him.
Starting point is 00:36:58 It was probably like six years ago, right? And he caught me staring at him three times. Did you look away real fast? No, I was trying not to look this nigga in his eyes, right? I ain't no homo, but the nigga fine.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Y'all know it. Fuck. I like pussy, but Usher fine, okay? Everybody good? Pussy has been in my mouth on several occasions. But he just...
Starting point is 00:37:22 But it's just Usher. And he was in the corner, man. And he... I swear I felt like a bitch because he was in the corner, man, and he, I swear I felt like a bitch because he caught me. I made eye contact when he caught, I did like this. Oh, that's Usher. He saw me looking at him. And didn't even, I was like, I don't care.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Let's get Gina on here. Hello? Gina, you're live on the radio just so that you know. What? What do you want? No, you're live on the radio. Just so that you know. What? What do you want? Yo, listen. I'm in L.A., nigga.

If you come, make some smoothies, give a nigga a handjob, and you can get it. See, he finally admits it.
Starting point is 00:38:08 First of all, let me say something, nigga. Stop trying to fuck me, because you know you want to see me, so stop acting stupid. I don't want to see you. Okay, listen, what time are you going to pick me up? I'm not picking you up. Catch a bird. Catch a bird, chicken.

I thought she was going to start singing. No, I was making a very I was telling a story and people was really into it. Usher, eye contact, he's following. Yeah, he
Starting point is 00:38:44 was like this. I looked at him and then he caught me staring at him. Then I was like, wait a minute. If he caught me staring at him, he'd been staring at me. That's true. I never thought of that. Yeah, I'm like, stop staring at me, Usher. So did he smile?
Starting point is 00:39:01 Yeah. Have you ever been starstruck for anybody like that yeah yeah I haven't met this person yet though too there's one person that I'm going to be starstruck and probably scared and just be like Trevor Noah
Starting point is 00:39:16 that can happen we can make that happen but I'm going to act weird I'm sick of all these lights get my fuzz getting all the but he's he's african he's black i know i know i know this sounds crazy but i don't think people who respect light-skinned africans like dark-skinned africans i know they out there right but even when I hear a white person from Africa,
Starting point is 00:39:46 I'm like, yeah, whatever, nigga. She from the South. No, Africans, when you think, I know this is so wrong. I'm going to get in so much trouble for this. But when I think about African, the shade that comes in is Michael Black's. That's the first. But what's crazy is there are so many different colors.
Starting point is 00:40:02 When you go, you actually, when you're walking down the street, it feels almost like L.A. There's everything there. But I think in America, they've made us believe that everyone's Michael Blackson. Yeah, they do. And they think about jungles and shit like that. Motherfuckers scared of Africa. Yeah, they have cities.
Starting point is 00:40:19 I'm going to get typhoid fever or something. What is that shit? Yeah, typhoid fever. Yeah, that's some African, African shit. That's only if you're going deep into the jungle and wading through water, like still water. You go deep into the jungle? I have not been deep. I went partially through the jungle because I went to La Pointe off of Gabon. I went deep in the jungle one time.
Starting point is 00:40:35 This girl didn't shave for two months. Oh, she's stank? No, that's the jungle. Get it? Oh, shut up. I'm stupid. Why do I do this? You were some you were some fingers man you'd be like that's all folks like where but i think this is going to be i think this this festival
Starting point is 00:40:53 is going to be bigger than all the festivals the two leading festivals used it used to be edinburgh if i'm not mistaken i think it's in germany one of them there's another one in ireland and the montreal comedy. The Montreal Comedy Festival is coming up soon. Has it? Montreal? It's coming up. Then that used to be the festival that broke a lot of talent. You know, people go in there like
Starting point is 00:41:15 you have a five minute set. You come out with a quarter million dollar development deal and they never do anything with it. Wasn't the guy from the Montreal Festival at the show? Bruce? Yeah. Good guy. All the big boys. Ted Serrano from Netflix was there. Robbie Pratt. Robbie Pratt owe me a joint. Every time I see this

Starting point is 00:42:16 Yeah, because I'll crunch. But the response, I'm telling you, the response has been good. The energy has been good. And it just seems like this was probably the first summer of the pandemic being pretty much it's safe to say over it's still people trying to
Starting point is 00:42:33 hang on to it right yeah people still can say they're getting it and stuff i'm gonna tell you straight up what i hate and i'm telling this goes for all you motherfuckers uh that one masked motherfucker in the crowd yo i was kicking him out the party the other day I was kicking masked motherfuckers out one of my friends she was like this in a sea of motherfuckers

Starting point is 00:43:47 When you see a whole face now, it feel weird, right? You like, ah! Some people look better in the eyes than the whole face. Yeah, some people look, yeah, you like this. It's almost like a lottery. You like, come on, keep going, keep going, go to the chin. Ah! I was on a flight.

Starting point is 00:44:10 you from there no but it was interesting because I was at the airport when they had just switched the mandate or whatever and it was crazy
Starting point is 00:44:18 just seeing people hold faces man it was like oh shit I wonder how long if it's that going to be a mental issue with us just getting used to seeing people's faces again.
Starting point is 00:44:29 If you were partying in Kentucky, well, you were in Ohio. No one really wore them damn masks in the first place. Yeah, that's right. Them Ohio's and stuff like that. But you know what? This is the thing, one other thing I said about the mad shit. It gives too many people power to be nasty to you.
Starting point is 00:44:51 You know, a lot of times when people, your mask, sir, your mask. I went to this shop. It was in Philly. It was a sex toy shop, right? I was going to make a purchase for somebody. I don't know. I was just going to get some pieces. Whoever needed some.
Starting point is 00:45:09 Sex box? Just some joints, like a couple roses or whatever. I heard they do work, right? Okay. And I just wanted to have a rose on deck. With no recipient, just to have it on deck. You know what I mean? Sometimes a nigga tie you.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Bang. Here you go. The Barney bag. And I don't even know. I went in there. And as soon as I walked in, this lady was like 14 feet away from me with a mask on. And people weren't wearing masks anywhere. She was like, sir, mask.
Starting point is 00:45:37 I hate that motherfucker. Like, you are 32 feet away from me. Sir, mask. I turned around and walked out. I was like, I'm not spending my money here. Let the shit go, motherfuckers. This one chick, she was like, sir, I can't talk.
Starting point is 00:45:54 My shit just went down for a second. She's like this, sir, this is Federal Mandation. I'm like, this is too much shit. Over the nose. And I can't wait to go back to the airport FaceTime video

Starting point is 00:46:29 Yeah, Nikki's here. That's about it. I'll talk to you later. Okay, bye. All right. I want to go back to the airport and see that lady with her whole face. And be like this. You remember me? I just want to be like, remember, and no mask. And I face and be like this, you remember me?
Starting point is 00:46:48 I just want to be like, remember, and no mask. And I want to do like this. But would you recognize her without her mask? I know that bitch. I mean, young woman. Queen. Was she black? She was white. Queens only come in one color, remember? You said that. We said that. Queen Elizabeth.
Starting point is 00:47:05 Queen Meghan Markle. I don't think queen. I think queens come in all colors. I'm. Queen Meghan Markle. I don't think queen. I think queens come in all colors. I'm not going to say queen just reserved to one shade. You have all type of queens. You can say what you like. And what makes you a queen is if you know how to be a queen to a king. That's what makes you a queen.
Starting point is 00:47:22 I'm entitled just to call myself queen. Motherfuckers quick to say, I'm a queen. What type of queen shit are you doing? Fabulous ones. Tell me, what is queen? What is queen? What's the definition of being a queen to you? I think it's confidence. I think it's confidence. All of your queens have attitudes. Do I do that? Yes, because as soon as you say queen,
Starting point is 00:47:39 you're like, mm-mm. It's not an attitude. It's just a representation. Confidence makes a queen. How you treat other people makes you a queen. How you give back makes you a queen. No, no, no. And how you have.
Starting point is 00:47:56 That ain't no queen shit. All that fuck everybody else. What makes you a queen, and I know they're going to get mad at me, what makes you a queen, not all that outside shit, what makes you a queen and I know they're going to get mad at me what makes you a queen not all that outside shit what makes you a queen is making him feel like he's a motherfucking king
Starting point is 00:48:11 that's how you get queen status that's how you get, how else are you going to get it so you want to be a queen and don't want to treat a man I'll treat a man like a king if I have a man that needs to be treated like a king. Why?
Starting point is 00:48:28 So now you're going to be selective on which ones get king treatment or not. If they ain't shit, they ain't getting king treatment. I'm so sick of this queen shit. I don't think you should just call, you can't call yourself a queen. I think you have to have queen,
Starting point is 00:48:39 queen like attitude. Queen energy? Yep, take care. Now, oh, no, now, I'm going to get in trouble because I say the queen is supposed to take care of king. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. But now, no. Now, oh, no. Now, I'm going to get in trouble because I say the queen is supposed to take care of the king. Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:48:46 No, but now you got kings. Let's take care of kings. It is. I'm telling you, it's like different. You can't just. And queens taking care of queens. Yep. Queens, she's, and y'all's is taking care of y'all's too.
Starting point is 00:49:02 I mean, it is what it is. I don't know where we're going. That shot right there, can you get a shot of the swimming pool? We're going to make this shit look packed. Go close. There's a lot of people down there though. We're doing all close up.
Starting point is 00:49:13 Can they hear us? Where's my microphone? I'm out of my other mic. Because this is, well, it is a good environment. We do have people here. And part of this is the whole Netflix is a joke. People that really
Starting point is 00:49:25 appreciate comedy. One, two, mic check. One, two. Toya, can you take this mic? And I know there's some people out there that just want to ask some questions to me that they've always wanted to ask. So this is a good opportunity. So cue the people that we hired to jump up.
Starting point is 00:49:41 Just kidding. I know people can't wait to grab that microphone. I know some people are like, oh my God, I don't even believe that I'm really sitting on the rooftop with Danielle Rawlins, a.k.a. Ashley Larry. Thank you. Uh-oh, she got a question
Starting point is 00:49:58 for me. Thank you. You look amazing. I love that color. You can sit right there. Wait a minute. I'm nervous. Come in here, queen.

Starting point is 00:51:03 You were very nice, actually. You were very nice, actually. You were very nice. But you did not want to drink your water. And that was a mandate if you wanted your next drink. Who? This was at the Super Bowl, right? Hey. Oh, hey.
Starting point is 00:51:19 Yes. Yeah, I refused water. You did. I was like, fuck, I treated water the way Heather treats water. But we got two bottles down before you got your next drink. I know. They kept giving it to me. It was just super bold, super fucked up.
Starting point is 00:51:31 Did we have fun? You did. We had a blast. We had a blast. Thank you. We'll do it again. I've been waiting for y'all. Oh, see what the queens do?
Starting point is 00:51:39 They don't be shares. They want to keep the kingdom to themselves. It was a great party. Are you Persian? No, actually, I'm Lebanese. Oh, I love Lebanese bitches. I mean, queens. Listen, we fall under every category.
Starting point is 00:51:54 We can be a bitch. Oh, man, one of my closest friends is Lebanese. Really good friend of mine. Because they're good people mostly damn I'm just getting sad now reason why I'm getting sad because her mom passed away
Starting point is 00:52:14 of cancer 5-6 years ago and when she was in the hospital every time they would have dinner she would have Sierra Mist was her favorite drink and the, every time they would have dinner, she would have a Sierra Mist was her favorite drink. And the family, every time they take a drink of Sierra Mist, they think about her and give her a toast.
Starting point is 00:52:32 And every time I see a Sierra Mist, I always call her and be like, I'm thinking about your mom. That's really sweet. Yeah, but Lebanese, am I saying it right? Lebanese. Y'all very beautiful. Thank you. Y'all don't usually date outside your race, though.
Starting point is 00:52:45 I mean, I do. I knew that. I know that's right. I saw that dress. I was like, I know you going outside Lebanese with that. I was married outside my race, too. You think she's going outside the Lebanese with that? Yeah, like, I'm good with that.
Starting point is 00:52:56 My daughter is Blackanese, if that's what it is. Blackanese? That's what I'm telling y'all, son. All right, I don't know what else to say. But she has a question. That was my question I had three questions where were you drinking
Starting point is 00:53:07 what did you eat why did you not get your next drink because people were trying to be disrespectful and they were trying to tell me I had enough I gave you water the other night too at Dave's party okay what are we doing I think he went like this hey man I mean you only live once
Starting point is 00:53:23 YOLO you did have a good time and we really enjoyed having you guys there. I loved that. It was wonderful. I came back, and then they just had a soft opening. Yesterday. I know.
Starting point is 00:53:33 I'm so mad. I was. I was going to hit you up, right? He called me, but you already heard how my night was. Yeah, I heard. I had already planned some friends to go past and everything, but I'll come back. Yeah. I love that place.
Starting point is 00:53:44 It was so much fun. Okay, my other question is, do you live in L.A.? I do. Okay. I'll be back. Do you find L.A. easy to relate to people? I don't fuck with L.A. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:53:55 You know what? I don't fuck with L.A. for a lot of reasons people want to fuck with it. Like, the idea of making it in L.A. and meeting this person. That's why, if you notice how I roll, I got a crew of people, like close friends. We always going to be together. I don't look for outside entertainment. I'm not trying to connect with it. I think it's overrated.
Starting point is 00:54:16 When I first started in this business, it was like you had to be in L.A. to make it in this business. There was only two places, New York and LA. That's a lie. Now it is. The point I'm making was back then, it was almost you couldn't be from like Dayton, Ohio or something and make it.
Starting point is 00:54:38 You had to come because this is where people were seeing producers and everything. But with social media and the way people are doing auditions and the fact people are doing stuff everywhere, it don't have that same Hollywood. And COVID changed it. I think it made people realize that you can do auditions
Starting point is 00:54:53 via Zoom. Yeah, you can. I agree. I'm not a big fan of it. Where are you originally from? Washington, D.C. by the way. Alexandria, Virginia. Nice. Yeah. I'm not a big fan of it. I mean, I know people are like, yeah, but you're doing a podcast
Starting point is 00:55:09 on a rooftop. He likes this part of it. The reason why, because for the most part, everybody that's here now are friends of mine or friends to friends. That's the type of energy that I like. That's the energy I can appreciate.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Here, you got to create your own fun, your own situation. I think wherever you go, it's the company you keep. Yeah. So not just LA, but everywhere. So was the outside part open yesterday? Yes.
Starting point is 00:55:38 Damn, I'm a mess up, man. And we were busy. I bet. And it was a vibe. So what's the situation? I mean, when is it? Usually Saturdays we open in the evening. During the day, he's open every day from Tuesday through Saturday.
Starting point is 00:55:54 Tell everybody the name of the place. Esco's. Esco's and Presidential. That's my guy. He used to fucking make me chopped cheese. Oh, he's. At the dime. I'm telling you, when Stephanie was pregnant...
Starting point is 00:56:05 The dime. Yeah, when he was... When my mother... When my mother or my child... Your baby mama? Yeah, when she was pregnant, that was one of her things she craved, the chopped cheese.
Starting point is 00:56:19 It was a burrito bowl. And I always would go get it for her. And then one day they told me he wasn't there no more. And I was I turned it to a mom. I grabbed my heart. I said What do you mean he's not here? He didn't even say anything to me. Well, I'm so glad to have him back. And the place is dope. The pizza
Starting point is 00:56:35 is so authentic. I think one of the best places about it is everything he does he really genuinely loves what he's doing. And you can taste it in his food. I 100% that is called the love factor. Some people cook, but some people
Starting point is 00:56:52 cook with love. And when something's cooked with love, it's just, I don't know, it's one little extra little taste. You're like, oh, they went in. They went in on the love. I don't know what the love is, but you can tell when somebody, I know this sounds weird, when they're tasting their food.
Starting point is 00:57:07 You know, like some people just cook like, oh, I can do this, but you gotta taste it. But when you, when you can taste what love's in it. I don't know if you know, he's a great chef too.
Starting point is 00:57:14 I know. Don L can cook, cook. No, I like to cook, cook. Don't put the pressure. Don't put him on a yacht and let him cook for you. Pressure? Oh, that's, don that goes back to the yacht.
Starting point is 00:57:27 Go back to the yacht since you brought it up. Did they cook for y'all on the yacht? Yeah, we had a chef. My girl got fucked. I know she got fucked. No, she didn't. Yes, she did.
Starting point is 00:57:37 No, she didn't. Yes, she did. I promise you. No, don't promise me nothing. I promise you. I pinky swear. She didn't. That's a trick question.
Starting point is 00:57:45 No, that's... I want to... I swear swear. Okay. She didn't. That's a trick question. No, that's, I want to. I swear men sometimes think that women do things that they would do. No, exactly.
Starting point is 00:57:51 I had this conversation. It was either you or someone else, but all of a sudden because a girl doesn't want to mess with you or doesn't pick up the phone right when you call,
Starting point is 00:57:59 oh, she's fucking someone. I'm like, why does your head go the first place that she's fucking someone? Because you know fuckers. No, because that's where you would be when we call.
Starting point is 00:58:09 We know fuckers. It's because that's where you would be when we call. There's some fuckers out here. Give them a minute, they'll get fucked. We know some fuckers. Yeah, she doesn't want to be with me anymore. That's because she was fucking some other dude the whole time. No, she wasn't. You just suck. No, I don't get fucked. What you saying? Lies you telling. You fucking somebody. Don't pick up my phone call twice. No, she wasn't. You just suck. No, I don't give a fuck what you're saying. No lies you're telling.
Starting point is 00:58:25 You're fucking somebody. Don't pick up my phone and call twice. Yeah, bitch, you think I'm stupid? Yeah, all right. I'm going straight to it. I'm thinking the worst.
Starting point is 00:58:35 You know why I'm thinking the worst? Because I'm the worst. That's what we're saying. I'm the worst. That's the point. That's what we're saying. Just because that's what
Starting point is 00:58:42 you would be doing. I got to tell you something. A real one said this to me one time this is the realest shit a woman has ever said to me she looked me in my face and she looked me in my face and she said Donnell I think she took a glass and she said Donnell
Starting point is 00:58:56 I just want you to know whatever you're doing I'm doing I said bitch you fucking yo I got so pissed I was like this doing. I said, bitch, you fucking? Yo, I got so pissed. I was like this.
Starting point is 00:59:11 Can't believe these dirty bitches, man. We all love these hoes. Scandalous ass. I didn't even think about that question. I was just like, aw. You went right to fucking. No, I gave myself away. My face is like this. She said, whatever you're doing, I'm doing. I could have been like, I ain't doing nothing.
Starting point is 00:59:30 I could have been like, I ain't doing nothing. What you talking about doing something? I did like this. You can see me in my face. I did like this. I said, oh. I can't even see these bitches in these streets like that. All right, anybody else got any questions?

Starting point is 00:59:58 I think it's more to that story that she just kept to herself, which is probably a good idea. All right, nobody's interested. Hey, Javanta. Come here, Javanta. Yams, get up in here. People miss you, Javanta. Don't nobody miss her. Yes, they do. Come on. Yams is here. Hey, guys. What's going on?

Starting point is 01:02:09 Yeah. And she's a grammar, too. I am a grammar. I'm here on Camel's yacht. Did you go on a yacht? Did you do yacht? We did yachts. We've done everything.
Starting point is 01:02:19 What y'all doing on a yacht? I ain't trying to be you, but what y'all doing on a yacht? I don't kiss and tell, baby. What? What? Nothing. I see you're in the hammock and stuff doing a yacht? I don't kiss and tell, baby. What? What? Nothing. I see you're in the hammock and stuff.
Starting point is 01:02:27 I like your little hammock photos. Oh, yeah. Okay, everyone that's watching this, if you haven't been to Guadalupe, you have to go
Starting point is 01:02:33 because I think it's like an untouched island. No one knows about it. It's French influence. The food is great. But you know what? You don't tell all these people to go.
Starting point is 01:02:40 There's going to be too many. Save it for us. Save it for us. We'll do a live podcast from there. Yeah, but no, I've been able to do that travel and work
Starting point is 01:02:47 on Ooni. I'm about to launch Ooni. Don't talk to me about Ooni anymore because you owe me 15 bottles of Ooni that I poured. I got you. 15 bottles of Ooni. This is her fragrance. When you wasn't fucking with me, you know when you don't fuck with somebody, you try to communicate with them like with stupid shit. I was like this,
Starting point is 01:03:04 yeah, I was like this. She wasn't fucking me. I was like this, yeah, I was like this. She wasn't fucking me. I was like this, yeah, I don't care. Just give me my cologne. 15 bottles. I was like, I want my 15 bottles. I have yet to receive my bottles. Now you got different labels and everything. Explain what it is. So yeah, I have a unisex fragrant line.
Starting point is 01:03:19 Everyone knows that follows the show. It's called Uni. And now I'm taking things to the next level. It works too. Ooni, it works. You get pussy with Ooni. Can you say that? But I have. I mean, no, I got some good looks.
Starting point is 01:03:35 I got some good licks off of that. I mean, they's like, hmm, what are you wearing? And then when I went and fucked with you, I just named you some other shit. But that's the thing. And they was like, I got mad when somebody said I smell good. I was like, man, fuck out my face. That's the thing. When we weren't talking, you still smell like me.
Starting point is 01:03:52 I know. I was like, I said, I don't know. What's the name of this fragrance? I don't know. I don't know that. Speaking of another person that's so disrespectful whenever I see them, that just showed up, that came to my podcast, and just smoked me out.
Starting point is 01:04:09 I do believe in you. Let me tell you how disrespectful. You want to know how disrespectful somebody is? I had a party to promote my strand of weed, right? And this motherfucker showed up with his shit.
Starting point is 01:04:23 Jaleel. Come on. Here we go. My man Don now. My man Don now. Here we go. You still salty about that bad? Yes, I am.
Starting point is 01:04:35 You going to let that go? I'm never going to let it go. The reason why, and you're evil, because you know how bad it hurt my feelings, and you still was passing your shit out on the low. I mean, I feel some kind of way, man. You should. It was, you know, cannabis is a community, man.
Starting point is 01:04:55 It wasn't, I didn't see it as competition. You know what I'm saying? I didn't know you were Nike and I was Adidas. I didn't know. So I'm going to go to a Coca-Cola party With a pack of Pepsi If you want to see yourself as Coke I don't see myself as Coke
Starting point is 01:05:11 Again like Heather and all your peoples And the people that we love They told you not to do it They did They was bumping me like this Y'all see what he's doing Go ahead and hit it again Last time he got up and left see what he's doing? He's all right. You know what? Tell the truth, Philly. Go ahead and hit it again, dog. Nah.
Starting point is 01:05:26 Last time he got up and left his own show. Oh, no. I'm good. Go ahead and run it back, dog. Come on. I think you got more in you this time. I'm good. I'm good.
Starting point is 01:05:36 I think you got more left in you. Here we go. Let's see. Tadell, I'm very, very. You know what we do? I apologize. You smoke. we do? I apologize. You smoke. You ready?
Starting point is 01:05:47 I did it. I'm very, very sorry. Who? You have to kick it. I'm trying not to. You know when you get that part of your voice? That air. You like, I can handle it.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Yeah, I'm good. Just give me a second. Give me a second. I'm going to be all right. No, but I thought it was very disrespectful. One thing I respect, the fact that you, any type of event that you do show up. But this is the problem I have. You show up and be disrespectful.
Starting point is 01:06:11 So I don't know if I should invite you to too much more shit. Okay. All right. He always brings good energy. Well, that's why I pulled up today, man. You know what I'm saying? They said you had space on the couch, and I just wanted to make sure that we didn't have any beef. And I wanted to see if you could outdo me.
Starting point is 01:06:25 So how's your stand-up career going? Let's talk about that. How's your stand-up career going? It's going about as good as T.I.'s. Yo, nigga, don't do that. Don't do that. No, the reason why I'm going to say don't do it, the reason why I'm going to say don't do it, and people have been very critical of T.I., I'm going to tell you this.
Starting point is 01:06:44 I'm going to tell you this. T.I. is good. He's committed to it. Like, he's committed. And I think he's a perfect example of we can get a certain level of success in one thing, but who says you can't just change your path? Who says you can't try something different? Nah, 100.
Starting point is 01:07:01 I actually wasn't clowning, man. I just knew that was going to rise. No, you tried. No, you was. He's funny. I knew that was going to rise out No, you tried. He funny. I knew that was going to rise out of you, dog. You know why?
Starting point is 01:07:08 Because he goes on stage. I get it. I get it, dog. That's what I'm saying. Are you getting ready to do stand-up? Scared as shit. Donnell is on stage.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Scared as shit. Scared as shit. Ain't nobody scared. Ohio, he did a really good job. I remember. Ain't nobody scared or nothing, man. This man spends a lot of time I pushed him out on stage. He physically good job. I remember. Man, ain't nobody scared of nothing, man. This man spends a lot of time on the road.
Starting point is 01:07:26 I pushed him out on stage. He physically pushed me. I remember. Yo, I was like, you going up? It was technically assault. I was like, you going up? He was like, stop playing, stop playing, stop playing. Like a black person at the end of a swimming pool.
Starting point is 01:07:38 You know how black people get by a pool? You never see niggas on the deep end. They always hang out. They pick that deep end. They be like, okay, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. That's low. And you did it. That's low.
Starting point is 01:07:48 I swim very well. But the reason why I say it, because if you keep doing it, I know you'll be good at it. I know you'll be good at it. You know how much I love y'all, man. At some point, it's just gonna click.
Starting point is 01:08:01 You know what I'm saying? It's gonna click. Nah, man, you can't. Stop being scared, son. It's gonna click. It's too many stages you around. Fuck all that. Yeah, you already have a good fan base, too. It's kind of to click. You know what I'm saying? It's going to click. Nah, man. You can't. Stop being scared, son. It's going to click. It's too many stages you're around. Fuck all that. Yeah, you already have
Starting point is 01:08:07 a good fan base, too. It's kind of like T.I. You have a natural base fan base. See, that's the thing when I say the T.I. thing, though, is because it's like people expect him to stop being a superstar
Starting point is 01:08:15 to go into comedy. He can't stop being a superstar. Right. You know what I'm saying? But if he wants to try something new, and in this day and age of social media,
Starting point is 01:08:24 it's like Dave and Donnell They got the power to lock up the phones He don't have that power yet But he's still a superstar He's still new He's working on it and he's putting in the work People don't realize that that's a huge That's a huge
Starting point is 01:08:39 Blessing from the crowd When somebody says I am willing to be apart From my phone for two hours to listen to you. That's earned, bruh. You never knew you were going to need that cloud, but damn, if you got it. Can I just bring up something, though? I'm just laughing because everyone's posting it.
Starting point is 01:08:56 Did Swiss Beats not get the no phone memo? That was Avion. No, he posted. Avion's on the camera standing back, but he reposted. It's Swizz's camera because Swizz at the end does a selfie. And I was like, everybody's looking like. Yeah, but you can't.
Starting point is 01:09:12 But you can't just. You can't take Swizz B's phone. That's what I'm saying. I was like, let's not go work with everybody. Everyone was surprised, though, seeing the camera. Everyone's face was like, wait, where'd that come from? You've been to a lot of, what do you, like, and I know you do have a connection with comedy.
Starting point is 01:09:30 And I'm telling you, similar situation, T.I. is used as an example. It was years, like, maybe like three years before he did it, he would call me randomly, like, do you know of any comedy spots, and do you know where? And I was like, why are you, why do you care so much about comedy? He would come to my spot in Atlanta.
Starting point is 01:09:47 And then about a month ago, the time he started, I said, motherfucker, when you going to get on stage, man? He said, yo, I did it. And I, like, as critical as people are, like, the commitment he has, he's flying himself different places just to get better and to do it. And it's an example like Charlie Murphy's similarity, being a superstar but not having a skill set at the beginning. Exactly. You're selling out everywhere, and you're selling out everywhere, and you're still an open mic. I remember Charlie Murphy, may he rest in peace, man,
Starting point is 01:10:19 was at the Brea Improv. And, you know, in L.A., don't nobody want to drive any more than 20 minutes anywhere. Yeah. And I got in my car and I drove all the way out to Brea because I just wanted the bread improv and you know in la don't nobody want to drive any more than 20 minutes anywhere yeah and i got my car and i drove all the way out to bread because i just wanted to see him do his thing so he was going through that thing where from the chapelle show he was blowing up on fame but he was still working out his routine and i just went out there to show love and he showed so much love back i just i'll never forget that day but that's what it took that's what it takes and you know we And we're both
Starting point is 01:10:46 fathers too, so there's that dynamic also of needing to be around. And you got to take to the road, and you got to hit the small spots that people wouldn't even expect to see you in and workshop it. So that's what I mean. I'm like, yo, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it, man. But there's a reason, you know, this thing.
Starting point is 01:11:01 Man, I'm going to put it like this. You got to do it. You got to do it. What's the difference? What is it? You a very accomplished actor. What is the difference with the couple of experiences you had doing stand-up? What do you think the difference is?
Starting point is 01:11:18 Oh, the difference is huge now, dog. It's technical. Like, seriously, you niggas are surgical, man. You're just watching y'all at the freaking Hollywood Bowl, man. You're surgical too. That time you disrespected me when I was going to work for you. Remember?
Starting point is 01:11:29 I know you're surgical. Don't tell me I'm surgical. It's like back to one. This motherfucker turned into Martin Scorsese. Go ahead. You did though. How did I turn into
Starting point is 01:11:38 Martin Scorsese, dog? I know this is, I was trying to get the best out of you, dog. You got one of the best voices there is, but you wild but the thing about it was
Starting point is 01:11:47 and you said this you were late you were late so I took it upon myself to get ahead of it and start doing it so I repped everything I'm not a trained voice actor like you I gotta just keep doing reps I laid down all the reps
Starting point is 01:12:04 before you even you came in late rolling your script up like this a voice actor like you, I got to just keep doing reps. I laid down all the reps. Before you even, you came in late, rolling your script up like this, doing like this, doing like this. And I said, do you want to check out? He was like, no. He started doing like this, and then he did like this. I was doing something. You said, see these? These words?
Starting point is 01:12:24 This is what you said. You said these words. These words are money. Then he said, this is what he said. This is how theatrical he was. It's the truth, son. You did like this. You said, he did like this.
Starting point is 01:12:40 See these words? This is money. Then he said, don This is money. Then he said, don't waste my money. Wait a minute. Here's the thing. He wasn't paying. I remember it was for free.
Starting point is 01:12:57 It was for free. They could pour a bottle of Patronus up. Oh, yeah. He said, these are words. This is my money. Don't waste my money you can't ask
Starting point is 01:13:07 black people for favors they bring it up bullshit oh they bring up bullshit here's the thing though here's a flip on that I said
Starting point is 01:13:15 did you listen to it he's still about his money did we listen to it what happened there was some stuff on there that's how he says it it was you know it required hella editing Did we listen to it? What happened? There was some stuff on there. That's how he says it.
Starting point is 01:13:29 It required hella editing. We didn't put it out. I'm not a professional. But I didn't recast you either. As a matter of fact, because you told me you threatened me when I left. You said, I know you're going to recast me. You be saying shit on the low life real quick. That's why you didn't put the product out. I said, no, no.
Starting point is 01:13:42 But I'm going to come back to you. You know what you did? You checked me. I'm going to come back to you. You know what you did? You checked me. I'm going to come back to you, and I'm going to come back to you with a proper check so that I can't talk to you crazy. Well, the better time is to don't be late, nigga. Right. They're true. They're true.
Starting point is 01:13:58 You had me checkmated right there. That's black on black crime right there for me to be late. I had things to do. I don't have caravans with like Urkel going across the country giving niggas real purple Urkel for free or whatever. I don't have that. I had time. I know. I know.
Starting point is 01:14:13 And that time, it was my money. And don't waste my money. You're right. You're right. You have me on that. How do we get back to being in a good grace with each other?
