Starting point is 00:09:52 I don't know why this sounds crazy but you're a lot younger than me when I hear you say Happy Veterans Day it sounds like you go to ill with Happy Veterans Day old man it does feel like that like an old celebrated holiday. For old head.
Starting point is 00:10:07 Yeah, for old head. What is, you know what? What? Go ahead, sit. I want to get a clear definition. It's like you're an old head, but a young head at the same time. Because you got the swag of like a younger guy, but you still like wear a mature old head face.
Starting point is 00:10:25 It's weird. Wait a minute. Yo, wait a minute. Austin, did you hear what she just said? Don't he look kind of old young at the same time? No. No? No. What do you think? I think he looks perfect. Aww.
Starting point is 00:10:42 That is so sweet. Man, you cannot do that with my son. You know what it is. He says I look perfect, and Austin looks, what? He looks down, he turns to a raptosaurus. You know, it's interesting. It's interesting because you, when people start calling you old head, it's like, you're like, oh, yeah, I'm getting up there.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Right. You know, it's something, it feels like a respectable, it's a respected term. Mm-hmm. But people use old head, like, to try to make you feel bad. Oh, old head. Old head ass nigga. Yeah. So what, here's the thing about being an old head.

For all you young guys out there that don't think you're ever gonna have a birthday past 30 when you're old what it means that you still living son true you're still living you alive and then you look at it especially when you come over here you start seeing other old heads going out yeah around you i know I'm an old head because I'd be getting a whole bunch of these joints.

Starting point is 00:29:54 it's a competition but sometimes some kids they can be so close I know this sounds crazy so close to age they feel like maybe uh a kid robbed them of their youth they build some type of resentment you know i mean like this little bitch then i can't go out i've seen that i've seen that
Starting point is 00:30:19 that wasn't the case with you and your mom no No, my mom had me at like 28. So she had her, she lived. Oh, where? Yeah, she had her later. Like for that time? Oh, no, that was like, I know it's different black people. That's like old. Yeah, that's considered old for that time. For white people?
Starting point is 00:30:37 It's like, you know, I waited till I was 48 and I said, yeah, but I think I should do it now. You know, the old hit. It do it now. Y'all, the old head dad is so funny. White people do this. That's why I say Austin goes to a great school. I want to mention it for sake of privacy or whatever, but I will say it's a really, really good school. And the thing I can appreciate about the older dad, I ain't the only one.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Only old dad, yeah. Man, his gray hair is all up and down that hill, son. It's like knee braces and everything. I was like, thank God he's in the school with these white people. I don't have to feel bad. But if I went to Compton. It'd be a whole nother story. And I'm not knocking what I'm just saying.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I know them dads over there are super young. Are probably old enough to be my kid. But this little kid, Austin, do you know how much you mean to me? Aw. How much? That is so sweet. We have a thing that we say, right? What is our thing?
Starting point is 00:31:40 What do I say? What haven't I had in a long time? Hug. We must do it. That is so sweet. This is my guy. He got jokes. Pretty soon Austin will be taller than you.
Starting point is 00:31:55 I noticed that you have on your heels today. What does that mean? Now you're going back to the old head trying to dress young? I'm just saying like, yeah. But I like those. I feel like when men wear those, it'm just saying, like, yeah. What? But I like those. I feel like when men wear those, it gives them at least two, three inches. That's what she said. Alexander McQueen.
Starting point is 00:32:12 I do call these male heels. They are. I feel like somewhat taller with them. It's a pretty hefty price. It's like, this is what women get. Butt shots. BBLs. All of that. And men, the only thing we can do is, like, get bigger shoes. How do you feel. BBLs. All of that.
Starting point is 00:32:28 Men, the only thing we can do is get bigger shoes. How do you feel about BBLs? How do you feel? BBLs. What is BBL? A BBL is a Brazilian butt lift. Most women now, it's gotten more popular within the last couple of years. It's a fat transfer.
Starting point is 00:32:41 You take the fat from the stomach. You add in the hip. Do you like that? it that attractive to you um not a huge fan of it i okay okay you just found out existed no i know what you're talking about i didn't know the term of it you know it's it's it all depends like if I'm drinking Remy, I'm like, yeah, bring that joint over here. You want that brown sauce? When the Remy's in the system, ain't no telling. But I'm not a huge fan of it. This is what I'm, this one's like, some people just, okay, we get it.
Starting point is 00:33:20 And like, they don't have no regimen. The worst is when you see that joint and they just skipped leg day yo so it's just like but yo it's just like man that's the crazy like at least put some workout in it but there's ways that women can enhance that area of their body without doing it i think that's the lazy way you know i'm saying and then we know the difference i'm about to be lazy i think you what you getting the uh why do women get this is what i don't understand let's get to it why do women have to put so much and this is how people know they've let o'donnell he's raw he's blue i'm having a whole show right now and haven't said any profane word or whatever it's who you around
Starting point is 00:34:12 so going back to that um why do women put so much attention and want so much focus on their dairy hair and not their brain is it you always want to be able to put bait on the line like why why is it so important for women that's such a especially in the black culture well no actually it's the opposite like black women are the most educated like statistically but i get that but for most part and i'm not trying to generalize for the most part, and I'm not trying to generalize, for the most part, that's not the first thing a woman wants to put out there. What do you mean, like put out there in the world? Sexuality. Sexuality. It feels like it's so unfair because I know that you're a smart woman. You got a nice body. And like, I've seen you go through your derriere issues. Yeah. I've seen you like, like it is something mental.
Starting point is 00:35:06 I'm not trying to be disrespectful, but I remember when you said, I remember when you said, I don't have no ass. I did it for a very long time. And then when I was like that, and my mind was like this, and guess what?
Starting point is 00:35:24 You don't have a lot of problems. Right. Think about it. When them yams came out, right, when you was like that little whatever you want to call it, you know what I mean? Like you'd cheer like, and give me an A. Right? You didn't have no problems. But once you started hearing that, that damn shorty got a fatty
Starting point is 00:35:46 do women like get like does it make you feel good yeah i think it's and then and i don't even think it's like putting on for i mean i guess it's it's about the attention and it's about um i think it's wanting to feel good and wanting to feel and then instagram and the social media puts a lot of pressure on yo man yo like it's the word like i can't wait to get rid of instagram yo you know what we want yo i'm gonna tell you this is me it's so much pressure yo you know what instagram does instagram puts so much pressure you on you wanting to be perfect portraying something that's perfect and it's not real. It's like WWE.
Starting point is 00:36:31 You know? And I'm like, okay, I get it. It's a great platform to get your name out there, your brand out there, but when it becomes, I feel like, an obsession where you don't know reality, it's crazy.
Starting point is 00:36:47 But I feel like those. Like those, I'm telling you, I go to the pages and I, you know, I know you're like, somebody like, nigga, whatever you liked on it yesterday. Yeah. Right. And I do like on some of them. You know, I do a subtle like, like, oh man, I hope you enjoyed the show. You know, your likes, you know, I just do a thumbs up or like a clap.
Starting point is 00:37:06 You know what I'm saying? Something to be all serious with. The way people try to communicate, putting the extras. Hee, hee, hee, hee, right? Them like 19 going back and forth, going back and forth. 19 going back and forth. 19, excuse me. Austin, excuse me for one second.
Starting point is 00:37:25 19 conversations going back and forth. 19, excuse me. Austin, excuse me for one second. 19 conversations going back and forth. Listen, dude, just call the bitch. Can you get this out of here? Right, right, right, right. Just call her. Okay, we get it. We get it. We see firebombs and all that.
Starting point is 00:37:42 Can I get one? Do I get a bomb? We see all that. The hard eyes, all that. Yo, some people be trying to Can I get one? Do I get a bomb? We see all that. The hard eyes. Yo, some people be trying to make like, yo, can I get a, oh man, we gonna get these bombs together. I see you, the extra hearts. Can I get another one? Don't nobody care about that.
Starting point is 00:38:02 I don't be reading the comments. Why? that I don't be reading the comments why yo this is what people women keep telling me I don't read the comments yeah alright let them get one of them good pictures doing them good pictures

Starting point is 00:38:31 thing you think is man I'm so sick of that turn around looking me too but even though we know it's not reality it still does something to the mental I know like what it is and what it ain't we're in the industry we get it it. We have to participate in it. But it still affects me. Like it's, and it
Starting point is 00:38:47 affects a lot of people, men and women. Just like the idea of whatever that world brings. Like you either want more or you're not doing enough. There's a term called social media cyclone or something where we love it, love it until it goes the other way. Until it goes the other way. The minute like, oh, I love you. I like you. I like you. The minute you get one,
Starting point is 00:39:04 nah, nah, nah, fuck you or whatever. But it's just interesting to me when like, The minute, like, oh, I love you, I like you, I like you, the minute you get one, nah, nah, nah, fuck you, or whatever. But it's just interesting to me when, like, when it's, like, it takes over, like, everything. Everything. Like, do you wake up and go on Instagram? Everybody does. Immediately. Yeah, I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Not immediately. No, that's one, there's one text or whatever, one thing I send out every morning. I'm not going to say what it is, but, you know, I'd be up for that. You know, but for me, I like to, for people to, like, be on my page and, like like have fun. You know what I'm saying? See the things
Starting point is 00:39:47 that I really, really appreciate. If you can judge them, I mean, you can tell, your social media page, it really is your personality. Yeah.

And you see a page and it's like, don't just face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, face, like don't don't just face face face face but does it affect you like have you ever face face face face face face face face does it affect you i'm like i get it face face face does it affect me yeah just like where you at like it does i
Starting point is 00:40:21 can i can i'm not gonna say i've been lying i could have a bad instagram day you know a day where i just just just wasn't just somebody pissed me off but just like it's one thing to get pissed off one thing when you try it like people try so hard i think like take the route especially the ones that's trying to be funny i'm like man just go to open mic it's so easy to type so funny words that's like roasting man that's why i don't really respect roasting because some niggas just write it down and yeah you're so dirty is writing there's nothing like that connects you with it yeah but then you know you're in a situation where not a situation but it is very good for your business people make country wayne I was talking to somebody about that the other day.

Starting point is 00:41:16 And people are like, I mean, I don't get it. And I was, I remember, it reminds me of like the black exploitation, exploitation times.
Starting point is 00:41:25 You remember the movies? Yeah, daddy and that. It had a, it had a following, it had a story. And the thing that works for him is that his stuff, what he does, it keeps you engaged for a long time. And another thing I point out to somebody is that people that's doing those things, they ain't got to be the greatest actors but they honest characters in the hood how the old head be so-and-so so he locked up on something that's strong and he's
Starting point is 00:41:51 probably one of the guys that's doing the best at it i respect his work work ethics and also it's such a decision to make when it comes to like comedy and social media because older guys want to be like yeah but that ain't comedy. It's a different, like myself, but I don't feel that way. It's a different style of comedy. And he said on one of his shows, he said, I was doing a million dollars a year touring.
Starting point is 00:42:15 Yeah. Now, I won't even say for the average person, for anybody that's a lot of money. He was like, but then you got all of these flights, all of this other stuff, and it just starts chopping away. And he said he started continuing to do that stuff. And dude do like a quarter million a month with all the stuff.

Starting point is 00:44:04 So, goddamn, boy, how do you get all of them together? That's a tough one. It's got to be Christmas Thanksgiving. It's got to be Christmas Thanksgiving. But the thing about Country Wayne, I'm boring you. That was so disrespectful. You could have been a Country Wayne baby. You could have.
Starting point is 00:44:23 Okay, no, don't disrespect me like that we're gonna take a break where's your sister she fell asleep too yo everybody is asleep alex is sleeping alex sleep i'm not asleep i was just looking up country way like he's ingrained himself into social media culture, the comedy culture. And this is how he got on too, because he was like, it's so tough. Like he's a clean comic. He's a clean comic. It is so tough to maintain that,
Starting point is 00:44:53 especially in black comedy, because it's so much pressure to be funny the way they do it. It's so easy to take the right route of like sexual joke. Look at this dude snapping. He always been country Wayne. So the way people got, like, I would say that he's, some people might think it's going too far, joke look at this dude snapping he always been country wayne so the way people got like i would say that he's somebody might think it's going too far but he's almost like where what um tyler
