Starting point is 00:06:06 No, I respect. I have to say something. Now, you and I have had a long look at that shit. Good for you. How did you acquire this? I wrote something. Where did you write? I wrote a, I had a show with FX that I was writing.
Starting point is 00:06:21 It's great. Yeah. Did you writing still writing? Not writing anymore. We wrote it for a year and, you year and we'll see what happens with it. Good for you. Now what I don't know, and I'm sorry to say, are you still on Louis' show?
Starting point is 00:06:33 No. No, that bell. If Louis actually talked about that, I'm actually doing another show for CBS. It's a cop show. I have a small reoccurring role. It's a small, small role. It's the matter. It's the cop show. I have a small reoccurring roll. It's a small, small roll. It's a matter of goal.
Starting point is 00:06:47 It's a cop show, funny, and it's the comedy. Me and my partner are the ball busters, and we do a little funny stuff. Did they have power? It's an hour. It's Robert De Niro produced. Correct. So someone did a funny cop show.
Starting point is 00:07:00 No, it's not funny. It's more like 90210 meets fucking NYPD blue. It's like five young rookie cops. You know, they're really good too. And there's a lot of famous people in it. Like I know that fucking dude people. You know, you know their names. But I know that motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:07:19 And then there's me and my partner who are the, you know, the comic relief in every episode. Here's what I can understand. Why hasn't... Why I have a career? Not well, not. You have a career. I have no career. Yeah, let's get it. But I have a life, which is better than a career anyway. But let me tell you something. I don't know why Hollywood can't get to the
Starting point is 00:07:35 straight. Why does someone make a cop show? Yeah. Or a show about lawyers or a show about doctors, because those three topics need to be covered finally. Yeah, it's awful. It went so funny though, they haven't made a funny cop show. It's a party Miller.
Starting point is 00:07:52 Well, since the job, I would say the job, the first season, the job was fucking funny man. Who was the job? Dennis Leary. Right, okay. Dennis Leary, Lenny Clark, same crew as Rescue Me, except cops. Right. But it was edgy, it was, it was, it was cheating, there was all kinds of fucked up shit on it.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Hilarious, but the lady at, I don't know what network fucking douche did. Right, of course. Well, let me tell you, the cops showed me to be made. It's not in a city. What they need. Right. Like Reno 9, Reno 9, whatever the hell it was. Reno, Comedy Central, Reno, yeah. It was at its moments, but it was still in a city
Starting point is 00:08:31 and they had the bizarre shit going on. I want to see a cop show set in suburban America and the crap that they deal with, which is so mundane and so much more relevant. I mean, you imagine getting caught because Mrs. Jones' dog is barking again, and you went through the academy for that, and what happens to your head
Starting point is 00:08:50 when you have to shop and go, Mrs. Jones, shut your dog up. But that's, I mean, most of cop's work. I mean, I found out this, doing the show, I learned a lot about the police, the how the police, there's rookies who do shit work. Of course. And then there's, you know, the 20 year guys
Starting point is 00:09:10 who are looking for a pension, then it's just like any other job, this fucking politics, it's just like show business, like being a comic. Those guys who are fucking sergeants and lieutenants, who sucked, daughters here, who fucking, who did what the editor? Who the, ha, fucking Vitty. I said I'd never do it on my podcast.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Now you fucking made me, you made me, I'm on FM radio right now. This is not fucking podcast internet. I'm on FM radio right now, because I don't want to say dirty words in front of your daughter and her your friend your friend. Oh yeah yeah. Well you know what the thing is you don't even need the dirty words Robert you don't need it. Oh fuck your own content. Listen I uh huh. Who's in? Who's in the chat room? Your daughter's actually running the chat room and playing with my dog at the same time. Now your podcast does not broadcast live. No we do do it live. We're not doing it live. I was gonna do it live live. We're not doing it live.
Starting point is 00:10:05 I was gonna do it live tonight, but we just changed glory hole radio over to riot cast. So I had to change, I never changed all the shit out of the lot. I can just hit a button and go live right now. Now, and that's what I was gonna do, because I thought it'd be interesting.
Starting point is 00:10:21 It's Christmas, blah, blah, blah. But we're actually in a chat room for the first time. I never did a chat room. We're in a chat room right now. So how are people chatting, they're hearing us live on the internet? They're hearing us, I believe through this computer. I don't know. It's magic.
Starting point is 00:10:37 It's just magic to people our age. It's something's happening on a house. I don't know. I don't know. I think they're, I guess, through this computer. I don't know. I don't know. I think they're he has through this computer. I don't know, but If you want to type in if you guys have any questions. Yeah, for Vinnie brand We can first question is who are you? I'm gonna be very angry. I need a right questions to him. No, don't write questions to him

It's on everything but mainly riot cast dot com and riot cast is who riot cast is It's a network of podcasts Florentineines on it, Rich Voss' podcast, I hate my wife hates me, the comedy seller,
Starting point is 00:11:30 Jersey jerks. OK, so everybody's starting a podcast, but I actually am going to do one, and I want to ask you if you'll do mine. We're doing it with a live studio audience. I actually listened to your podcast, your first one. That was the first one, it was awful. But you got to understand this is what the only good part is we took you 30 minutes to start talking. It
Starting point is 00:11:50 was you and him talking about a fucking song. I almost killed myself. What song was it? But in your eyes, maybe. No, some fun. But it was like you guys. No, yeah, my buddy actually did that. That was his podcast. Yeah, it sounded good He does a great sound right, so he went to a podcast. I said them listen I'll come up I was in Boston. I did the podcast with him. He put it up now We're gonna do a podcast with comics, but I'm gonna call it but I'm gonna let a comic do a set live in front of an audience Right and then we're gonna do the podcast immediately after that So if the audience has questions for for example, on Thursday night from your set, they can sit there and interact with it. I
Starting point is 00:12:28 think that makes it. What do you mean? Well, I don't understand that. Okay. Next Thursday, you're at the club. Yes, I am. I'm very excited to have you there. Me too. Okay. It's gonna be great. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Now you're gonna do the show. Right. And then I want to set up and is someone's phone ringing? Nope. Okay. I want to set up and have you then do the podcast with me right in front of a live audience. So if someone's sitting there, they can interact with us. And I'm going to produce the podcast, meaning it'll have segment, it'll be, right.
Starting point is 00:12:55 And I'm going to interview you about your career. You're going to, you wait a minute. You're going to produce the podcast. Yeah. So you're going to do a podcast during a live show. Yeah. Not the show. The show happens. And then after that, I'm going to bring you back up on stage. We're going gonna do a podcast during a live show. Yeah, not not the show. Right show happens and then after that I'm gonna bring you back up on stage. We're gonna do the podcast in front of the audience in front of the crowd
Starting point is 00:13:11 But how long is that show gonna be? Well, I do know some people are gonna leave obviously But but we're also gonna tell Rutgers kids you can come down just for the podcast Be better new audience of 200 if you have audience of 20. It's a fascinating thing Fat well, I don't know if the word fascinating is the word. I don't think it's fucking middle earth or anything to do with the Chronicles of Nadia, but okay Interesting for people Fascinating, okay, so you think me and you on stage at your club is fascinating. I think you're fascinating Maybe interesting interesting if we both had swords and elixirs, okay?
Starting point is 00:13:44 Can I tell you something? I don't, you're right. It's not fascinating. And comics aren't brilliant. Right, yes. What's called, I think, I know comic is brilliant. I disagree. No, you don't brilliant this.
Starting point is 00:13:55 Brilliant is a guy who is right now. One Chrome is on away from curing cancer. That's brilliant. A guy who makes a clever joke is clever. He's smart even, but he's not brilliant. I think certain people, I think Patrice was brilliant. A guy who makes a clever joke is clever. He's smart even, but he's not brilliant. I think certain people, I think Patrice was brilliant. I think Patrice was brilliant, and let me back it up before you go off on the tangent.
Starting point is 00:14:14 Is that a good word? It's better than fucking your words. You always have a big word again. Tangent is a good word. I think that he was brilliant because he actually was so funny. You know, you never saw him with a notebook. You never saw him with people writing for him. You never saw him working shit out.
Starting point is 00:14:34 He actually just went on stage, but no, but he was that funny. He was funny. He was funnier than anybody I know. He was on another level Every time you saw him he he was just like oh you watched him I I watched him and feel it felt guilty every fucking time like I suck I Yeah, even after I killed I've done shows with him where I fucking annihilated right? Okay, like what the fuck and then he goes up and he does this thing and I'm just like fuck me. Well, you know, Patrice did the better than anybody.
Starting point is 00:15:08 What? Patrice held the mirror and talked about, in my opinion, he talked about what was behind an action. So in other words, if Patrice said, well, women do this. It wasn't women, you know, rag on their men. It was, here's why this is happening. Patrice went one level or two level deeper
Starting point is 00:15:31 than most comics would care to go. Or could go. Right. So I agree with you. When Patrice would do it, but Patrice, you know, also did 50 different ways of coming to women's face and caught the pirate, everything else. So, I mean, look, I'm not saying that I just think that a guy like that and she brought up
Starting point is 00:15:49 Jorraldo too. I mean Jorraldo in certain ways, comics, there are comics that are fucking brilliant. And I understand what you're saying. We're all up there telling jokes, but certain people told them in such a fucking way that silhouetted themselves on Above everybody listen to what that's a different conversation like David Telll It tells great. He's he's fucking brilliant at what it does prolific meaning a wide body of work a lot of jokes prolific writer I think he's but he's brilliant because people copy him, people steal it. Oh, David Tell is the most ripped off, not just for names, name names, go.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Oh, come on. I'm not going to need it. Don't fucking talk about it. Okay, okay. There's no on-name names. I'm sorry. Okay. I think that the guys that were very heavily influenced, you know, I love them.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Big J was very heavily influenced by David Tell. Right down to saying any who wants days. Now look, here's the problem with that. I've heard that too. I've heard that too. Here's the problem with Dave. When you watch Dave, you love him so much. For the next week, you're going,
Starting point is 00:16:59 man, you know, because you can't help it, because it was so God-dave fun. What are we doing? What are we doing? Man, you know. How I can't help it, because it was so God- What are we doing? Huh? What are we doing? Man, you know. How I can't do it? I was actually like the way you do it better than David. I'm much better doing David and David. Yeah, that was almost like the Scrooge,
Starting point is 00:17:13 the movie with Jimi and Andrew. Yeah, look, also, Reagan, when you watch Reagan, you end up going, sorry, you too, you just, you can't help it, you fall in love with you watch Gaffigan and you go So there's certain people that have that such a pronounced way about them When David tell is stomping his feet. Yeah, and he's gone Okay, listen
Starting point is 00:17:38 Those are part and parcel of his if you have you say part and parcel again And we're not selling fucking beaver pelts off a wagon. I will throw my microphone out. Okay, there they are. The core of this Alvea is your addiction stinks. My diction, not that that would be my word. So I know what's the, what's the, uh, allocations? Well, my, it's all for them. That's I can't say any word. Right. Most of the time when I meet people right I don't hear their name right or there are certain words. I always am afraid to say how the fuck This is so weird man. How do you fucking do?
Starting point is 00:18:15 comedy and Your death I'm gonna tell you what I think happened. I've been deaf since I'm about 12. Right. So, I went to this audience, great audiologist finally. And, you know, I know not a shit audiologist, just, so I went to this great audiologist and she sat down, she said, she did some reading. I know what I said. Can you take that squeaky, that's fucking up everything. I told my wife, no fucking squeaky toys.
Starting point is 00:18:40 I usually stab all the fucking squeaky toys. To get the air out of the... Yeah, so it doesn't make a noise noise but she fucking snuck another one behind me It really is a murder in your future. You know that right? At some point I would make a noise I said So I go ahead I went to Saudi Alastair and she did a pretty amazing thing Yeah, she put me in a sand both and she played a sentence with headset on yeah, and she could what did you hear?
Starting point is 00:19:02 I didn't hear any part of that sentence and she just laughed at you. No, she said, I had deaf. She may have said I didn't hear. So what she then said is, okay, I'm going to tell you what the sentence is about. She said, I didn't play anything. That's why I read it. I'll I hear wood. That's what I heard. But she then said, I'm going to tell you the subject matter. Yeah. And played it again. I heard every word clear as about. She did not raise the level. She said, what has happened to you over the years? Is that your brain is working at a much higher effort level. Yes.
Starting point is 00:19:38 She said this, Robert, you're going to jump in my shit when she said it, but she said it. She said, part of the reason you developed such an intelligent, you're gonna jump in my shit when she said it, but she said it. She had part of the reason you developed such an intelligent, you're so smart, she said. You said, you added it that. You just added it that. I don't know exactly what she said, I couldn't hear it, but she said, she gave you a compliment
Starting point is 00:19:57 to ease the fucking pain of being deaf. But every doctor does that. But everybody does that. Everybody says, no, there's something else that happens. Your brain fills in what it expects to hear. Okay, so that's why sometimes I'll miss here something so, because I was on a different wavelength, but I heard it crystal clear, but I didn't hear it.
Starting point is 00:20:19 So she said, that's why, and she told me, this is true. When I think we're hearing aids, when I lay down and stop talking, I would go to sleep immediately. And she said, because your brain is tired, you're working harder to hear these words. I think when I was on stage all these years. That's what people did too.
Starting point is 00:20:36 When you started talking, people would actually lie down and go to sleep. Just FYI, when you took your hearing aid out. I can't say part parts of it, but you can say, FYI, I always shitting a sprout of a vagina. Just FYI when you took your hearing aid out. I can't say part of parcel But you can say FYI. I always shake a sprout of vagina. It's FYI. This is this fucking decade. Oh FYI LL Anyways your story ace up. Go ahead. What happened to these? I think I developed Better as a comic and with crowd work because I never heard what people said
Starting point is 00:21:03 But I had a guess what they were on. It's interesting First of all, let me just say this Where's your the chat room this guy just wrote this is terrible. All right, no not this not the podcast the actual chat room It's just a shit idea. They can't hear you. They can't hear it. No, okay can't hear it. No. Okay. So, the only thing that's going on in this chat room, is people saying what their screen names are.
Starting point is 00:21:27 You see what their screen name is, and they write something. So nobody can hear it. They're supposed to be able to hear us right now. It's probably better than they can. Yeah, well, they will someday. Maybe they can chat about this week's podcast. No, the saying is built in microphone.
Starting point is 00:21:42 It says it's fucking, it's working. So, fuck them. Um, I don't know what you guys want me to tell you. Um, anyways, I, I think that, that you say this, that you, you're, you're actually smarter or become a better comic because your deaf, I felt the same way. And this is not the same thing, but I think it is. When I thought I shit my pants on stage one night,
Starting point is 00:22:04 because I had to honest to God and I know the sounds fucked up. Hey, oh, absolutely. I count myself as one of the unfortunate people that now know this. Because I thought I farted on stage, but I had really bad gas. And I thought I shit my pants. I in my head I went, I just shit myself. In front of an audience. 10 minutes into an hour set. Okay, in front of a packed room.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Oh, okay. Kill it. Get your ear. Unbelievable set. I'm like having fun. Quiet, I just shit my pants. I slowly backed up, went to the wall, put, then I actually added this into my act,
Starting point is 00:22:43 this is just as far, I put the leg up that I thought the shit would dribble down. I put that up on the wall, then I actually added this into my act, it's just as far, I put the leg up that I thought the shit would dribble down, I put that up on the wall, and I took my hoodie off, and I tied it around my waist. Sure, good breath. And I stood there for 50 minutes, and I couldn't move, because I thought poo would might fling out or fly on some people's faces.
Starting point is 00:23:06 And I, and it actually made me a better comic because I had to rely on the jokes. Yep, and I focused beyond belief. I had to focus on the other knowledge of, does it smell? The people know absolutely. Yes, so I do agree that you being deaf is very similar to my experience.
Starting point is 00:23:24 I believe that a lot of deaf people say, I'm ready to shit myself. I think most deaf people think, well, at least I have a shit myself. I, I think, uh, anyways, um, I, it's fascinating. I mean, it's great by the way to hear you on the radio. Everyone has just heard you check average. I mean, it's great by the way. To hear you on the radio, everyone has just heard you check average, I don't know. You were checking a text message. That was from my wife who's actually waiting outside.
Starting point is 00:23:51 She didn't want to come in. She didn't come in? It's my house. I'll make that judgment. Okay. I'll make that call. You have to fucking, you really are just an owner of shit.
Starting point is 00:24:01 It's just an owner, an owner, dad, cocksucker. You know what I mean? She's a man. I do of shit. It's just an owner, an owner, dad, cocksucker. You know what I mean? She's a man. I can do it when she's a kid. You know what? Fuck you. Now she can't stay out.
Starting point is 00:24:12 How's that? You just made my wife know. You know what? I gotta tell you now. What did you say her first name is? I have terrible. Don. Don.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Not terrible. You're deaf. We just went over that. Don, I can go. Yeah. She can come in. Don, you can come in. If you can hear this. Anyways, she's not allowed to talk on the podcast though. Well, she probably doesn't want to. She actually doesn't speak.
Starting point is 00:24:30 She doesn't speak. No, she lost her voice as a young girl. I can marry that woman, it wouldn't even matter. Oh my God. It's weird though, you've been, most people don't know your fucking death. No, most people just think you're a fucking asshole That doesn't listen. I honestly got I used to get mad at you Is I'd be fucking sitting there going Vinny Vinny Vinny and then you wouldn't and I'd be like fucking what the fuck
Starting point is 00:24:57 And then one day you like dude. I can't hear yeah, I was like I've secretly hated you Well, you can't the secret a lot of of people hate me, just let me know. Well, dude, let's get into that, too. You're a comic, dude. This is the thing. You're a fucking comic, and you're on a club. Right. So it's weird, man, that you have this,
Starting point is 00:25:21 you're gonna be fucking hated. You're gonna be hated because of the decisions you make for whatever reason for your business. And you're a fucking family and you're a fucking livelihood. But then you're a comic. So you know our secrets, but you, you know what I mean? So you're, dude, you're like a fucking, you're like the white wizard in fucking Lord of the Rings.
Starting point is 00:25:44 Yeah, I'm having double agent, I've been calling that everything. It's double living. It's very weird, dude. And I mean, but there's this notion, let me tell you this notion, the notion is that a guy can't do both. And I've proven that wrong. Hang on, that's my wife. Hi, Dee.
Starting point is 00:26:02 These are a couple of products we picked up. That's This is my daughter Danielle. That's just yeah, and this is my friend Hannah That's not that's not his friend. That's her friend. That's my friend Like you just did anyways Anyways like you just did anyways anyways I don't forget the fire I'm a mom she designed the whole thing it looks awesome yeah looks very chic look good word I like that word yeah now you're headed into this fucking center yeah yeah yeah good so here's it. Hang on. Hey, he yeah, bring him downstairs.
Starting point is 00:26:48 Fucking you got to love women. No, women of the best your wife. How nice is your wife? You're way. Your daughter. First of all, your daughter's alternative comedy, sense of humor is awesome. She went. I think she goes, I feel like I'm missing all the funny. And then she goes, I already felt that way.
Starting point is 00:27:05 That's great, really. Okay, ladies and gentlemen, it's Daniel wrote one of my favorite jokes of all time. Don't tell that, don't say that. Oh, she's a great writer. Great writer. She wrote one of your jokes? No, no, I don't do the joke.
Starting point is 00:27:15 She wrote a joke that I love. Okay, what is it? The joke is that she said that, I gotta remember how to phrase it. She said that black people are not, they're bigoted. Yeah. Because colored people is an inappropriate use,
Starting point is 00:27:36 you can't say colored people, but they have the NAACP and the CP stands for color people. As you guys, I think the colored people should be forced to change that to the African American. Right. But don't never do it because that's the NA, AA, AA. And that just spells NA. Yeah. Which I like.
Starting point is 00:27:51 I like it. That's actually funny. Yeah, it's good joke. So back to being on both sides of it. Have you talked about this before? Not in a podcast. You've never done it. No.
Starting point is 00:28:01 No one's ever talked to you. I mean, because I don't want to. I hate this one thing I hate is when, you know, I hate rehashing shit. No, I don't you. I mean, because I don't want to, this one thing I hate is when I hate rehashing shit. No, I mean, I'd rather just funny. And this would be a topic because here's the thing. I'll tell you something funny. Yeah, I love the Patrease. Right.
Starting point is 00:28:14 And two things happened. You know, Patrease used to tell me all the time. Just be a club owner. Just be a club owner. Right. And he would say to me, you're not funny, but you're not funny,
Starting point is 00:28:24 and you really trash me. Right. To me. Yeah. me, you're not funny, but you're not funny, but you really trash me. Right. To me. Yeah. And I think, you know, I don't think you ever trashed me anybody off. No, he would be. Patrice being Patrice. No, Patrice, look, Patrice, I mean, I think that the guys that all of us, that's the
Starting point is 00:28:37 one good thing about us, that fans kind of take and abuse, we trash each other through our faces. Right. If you stink, you stink. kind of take in abuse, we trash each other through our faces. If you stink, you stink. We tell you to face. But that's because people are friends in some way. Absolutely. If you don't like somebody, you don't really do that.
Starting point is 00:28:57 You will, but it's in a fucked up way. But I hear you saying, go ahead. And now, the last time he's on the club, he was right before he passed. And it's really hard for me because, we had really interesting conversation. And. What was it?
Starting point is 00:29:16 Well, Patrice was talking about not wanting to perform anymore and get out of performing and to do a production. And he was talking about the audience and the business and the business eating them alive and not being free to say what he wanted to say. And that the audience was, he loved the audience but it was a very odd thing.
Starting point is 00:29:38 He was talking about the audience draining him and wanting things from him beyond the performance. And in the conversation, I said, in the Patriots, you should really do a podcast. And I already knew what I was going to do when I said, listen, Patriots, you should be doing a podcast because you can say whatever you want. And there's nobody that can stop you. And if it gets big enough, you can monetize it and be paid for your art. So I actually, I convinced him to come and do a podcast on Thursdays with me. I'm sure he's going to come down every Thursday and do the live podcast. Which would have been fun because we had
Starting point is 00:30:15 a lot of great conversations for very different politically. But anyway, so it was a really difficult conversation because all we get along, I kept trying to talk to him about how great he was and to not quit, but to find another way to monetize what he was doing. People are like, this is what we all do for the art. I mean, I know when you walk on stage, you want to be funny. And if you could walk on stage and make five million dollars but not be funny, you wouldn't do that necessarily.
Starting point is 00:30:44 There would be a break there for you. But below that to a thousand dollars. I'm sorry. Lower that to a thousand dollars. Well, no, you know what I mean though. Yeah. Five million dollars. I would tell everybody to go fuck themselves.
Starting point is 00:30:56 Okay. Get my, pay this place off. There's a number. There's a number. It's five million. Yeah, five million. But, but, so one of the things Patrice said that night, I told him a story about, he was, I was in fun with him one day.
Starting point is 00:31:08 And I was in my office. And everything was racial between Patrice and I. Like, you know why, dude, you don't get it. He came to my Super Bowl party and told me there's no black people here. I said, Patrice, there's you and Keith. Right. And he goes, yeah, just two, I'm like, okay.
Starting point is 00:31:20 What the fuck Super Bowl party did you have with all of me? I've invited everybody in my party. I wasn't invited. Well, I'll tell you what, this year I am telling you bring you I can't make it So anyway, um, I generally don't invite a lot of comments anyway because it wasn't that it's a family party You would actually fit in very well, right right because you have a life right so anyway, uh, I want to get into that too But you said that a couple times already. I want to get into that we were gonna do it But go ahead. No, don't tell me we're gonna do it. I said we're gonna It's my fucking podcast you fucking control freak go ahead
Starting point is 00:31:54 So another phone Patrita is rallying me about racing and I went I looked up the clock and it was 301 Yeah, and next thing I know I thought sleep I looked up it was 314 and Patrice did not stop. He didn't know I felt sleep. Yeah man just kept yeah. So the last time is in the club. It's happened to me. That's happened to me five times. Oh yeah. Well I told the story. And all we get along he was happy but in the dumps he was talking about my mother because he was close to my mother. He laughed as hard as he did all we got along. And he grabbed me and he gave me a big hug. Because you know, being at Tyson, I'm always busting your balls. You're a good comic.
Starting point is 00:32:36 And it was like being anointed because it was Patrice. Right. And then when he had the stroke, I had a really difficult time because I knew it wasn't an end good. My dad died from the stroke. And I had a dream a week after that that he came to me and he was trying to communicate with me and he couldn't. And I really just, I'm not a cryer, and that really just got to me because it was Patrice and because of who we, you know, more than, you know, more than would normally,
Starting point is 00:33:13 because normally I can deal with it. I've lost both my parents. I've lost friends, you know, but anyway, so back to the comic club thing, you know, hearing that from Patrice and knowing that I know you think I'm funny, I know, you know, hearing that from Patrice and knowing that I know you think I'm funny. I know, you know, Norton has told me I'm funny. So there's the guy that I respect.
Starting point is 00:33:32 There's guys. I'll tell you this. I'll be up front with you. I'll say it and I'll stand by it. First of all, let's just analyze what Patrice said to you. He said that you were good. Right. Not great. Not not really good. Just good. So I will
Starting point is 00:33:55 Sturgeon is terrible. I will agree. You're good. You know, listen, if someone has to be on stage and it's gotta be you I thought he's isn't gonna run out. Look, no man, I've seen the thing you get, the reason why is you get the club owner, comic stigma, because a lot of guys go up and they do that joky, shit. Well, it's back, it's from the 80s in the early 90s. It's from when club owners, comics said fuck it and became club owners.
Starting point is 00:34:24 You were a guy, you're a businessman that became a club owner and then became a com. Well, you know I became a club owner, right? You were doing comedy. But I was doing comedy, but I got black balls out of comedy because you sucked. No, I'm kidding. That came much later as we did that.
Starting point is 00:34:41 No, what happened is I was doing an open-market rascal. Now the first time I went on stage, I was probably 29. And we're there about something at age. And my first minute of stage, I killed. I didn't have anything prepared and I killed. And I thought to myself, well, this can be easy. And so I spent the whole week writing material. And now the next time I was on stage,
Starting point is 00:35:02 at the same open-micle week later, I was so bad they turned the sound lights and stage, everything off at one time. Literally the end of my set, which at that moment I said, I quit comedy. Now Paul Vanier, who was I'm seeing it, said to me, you listen, no, no, no, you don't quit. That last week was the anomaly.
Starting point is 00:35:19 This week is what should have happened. Last week when you killed, that was weird. Tonight, no, that's what happens. That happens a lot, dude. I mean, I remember when I first got on stage too, I think the excitement, the newness, there's something about that that is like what the fuck. And then the next week, the reality hits and you try.
Starting point is 00:35:39 The first week, you don't try and your natural instinct, what you later will become, Yep, actually comes out. 100% of rig. And then the next week you're like, I can do it again. And when you try, it's fucking blood. Robert, I had rigged up for my second performance ever. I'd never told this story to anybody.
Starting point is 00:35:56 I rigged up two water squeeze bottles and I put tubing one to my groin and two to my armpits. And the joke was, I was gonna say I'm not nervous, and squeeze them, and we would see the water stain. And it looked like I'd pee my pants. I want to shut the mics off. I know you don't. No, you know, you want to hear this. You could hear it from the happen. So I wore the wrong kind of pants. When I squeezed the tubes, water just shot down into my socks. So I did the joke and squeezed the water. And then I paused for a laugh and looked down and no one knew what happened.
Starting point is 00:36:33 And my arms didn't work. It was just the most uncomfortable. Because then I'm like, oh fuck, that was my joke. So now I'm not laughing. I just have wet socks. Ha ha. Can I tell you though, I used to have, when I first started. I had buck teeth. I had plastic wet socks. You know what I am, I used to have when I first started.
Starting point is 00:36:46 I had Bukti. I had plastic Bukti. And I used to do, I would do, it was like literally 10 minutes in my act, 8 to 10 minutes. And I used to do a goofy vampire. Sure. Duh. I used to go, you should use these and go into a hardware store. Is anybody got a file?
Starting point is 00:37:07 Yeah, I would just go on and on and one night I forgot them. And that was my act. I tried to make white buck teeth out of like a paper plate and they just got wet and just became a ball of fuck and wet paper. A ball of cardboard. It was the worst and that's when I learned I got to write. I actually got to write fucking jokes. That fucking night.
Starting point is 00:37:28 And you're right, when you become really good. Right. Now I just did a step before I came here. You did, where? At the after club. At your club. And what I did is I went up, to get good, I think you have to really, I play with my cadence.
Starting point is 00:37:40 I said, okay, I'm not gonna be animated. I'm gonna be very quiet. So tonight I did a very quiet set, and all new shit, I forced myself to just go up and do new material. And tonight I just ripped a little bit on Christmas and how we're colossal, depending on the ass, Christmas is, and the set went very well.
Starting point is 00:37:58 But it's because you're doing that real moment, which you can't do when you're on time three, third time you're on a stage, you can't have that real moment necessarily. Why? Because you're too nervous on the third time. The first time I agree with you, you go up and you're not trying once you're trying. Yeah, you're fucked. It's almost like, I mean, happens in podcasts a lot too. Yeah, people come come on and too great on the podcast. And you're like, Holy shit, dude, come back. And
Starting point is 00:38:23 the next time they try and it's like, yeah, what happened? It's like, you really just got a fucking, and you're like, holy shit, dude, come back. And the next time they try and it's like, what happened? It's like, you really just got a fucking, and then that's, I mean, that's what happens on stage after time and time. You can finally become, I think when they find, when a comic finds their voice, when a comic hits their rhythm, all that horse shit, it's just a comic not caring anymore. And taking that secret self, the guy in the middle of the night when they think of something funny,
Starting point is 00:38:48 I should have wrote that down. When you're taking a piss, that's fucking funny. When you're with your chick, are you friend and you go blah, blah, blah, that guy on stage. And you're not thinking about the other comics, you're not thinking about the club owner, you're not thinking about the fans, how many tickets you sold, how much money you make,
Starting point is 00:39:03 you're just thinking about, I wanna talk I want to talk about this and my way. And that's when you actually play. And when you find that comfort level across your career, that's when you really hit a stride. I'll tell you, now I was always nervous on an audition. You go on and say, I get nervous on an audition. Yeah, because you're just stinking acting. I actually have a pretty good acting.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Are you really? Yeah, you do a scene right now. Okay. I'm gonna show you something. I wanna do a scene real quick, ready? You're just a guy, you're just a guy in elevator. I step in and just go with what I do. Hey, how you doing, man?
Starting point is 00:39:35 Hi, how are you? I don't talk to strangers. Why? Why? I'm doing all of that, I'm sorry. Say you're stinky. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Because what I wanted to do with you
Starting point is 00:39:44 is just fuck around. When I say I'm a good actor, Say you're stinky. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I hate you. No, actually, I would be the problem for me. I'm a people person. I'm the guy stepping in the elevator going, hey man, what's up? I'm Vinnie. What are you like? I'm chattep, anybody. But I watched Brewer doing audition.
Starting point is 00:40:13 We were out in LA two years ago. And we were just doing the club. I was opening for him. And he could say, I got an audition at Disney, you want to go? Right. So I'm like, now I go to that. So it was a animated, so's gonna do a voice. Yeah, but I'd never been to this level of an audition
Starting point is 00:40:30 Because this level with audition was the guy maker the producer the writer in a sound booth with a glass wall and the director and you know and the decision makers so Burgo's and he's got the sides and And the decision makers so Burgo's and he's got the sides and He walked in to say he was casual is he walked in I don't like if he walked in here and I said hey robber. What are you doing? Like he just didn't give a shit. Yeah, who we were talking to goes in the booth blows a lines out now in the room in the glit
Starting point is 00:41:00 I'm in the other side of the glass wall. Yeah, and And everybody in there is cracking up. And some girls in there goes, oh my God, will he read for my project? Do you think he'll read for my project? And the guy goes, ask him. And they go in and I see them talking, the mic's off. And he goes, yeah, go, go, go, go, go, you shit. And she comes back with some other lines.
Starting point is 00:41:20 He had never seen lines before. He looks at them. And shakes his head. Yes. Blows lines out. Murderers it. Murderers it. They say, well, can you do it this way? Murderers it again.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Can you do this way? The whole thing lasts 15 minutes. He walks around, man, man, thanks a lot. Thanks a lot. Yeah, good seeing you. Good seeing you. We get in the car. We're 20 minutes outside the studio.
Starting point is 00:41:41 The phone rings. Cancel your flight. You're doing both jobs this week. Right. Okay, now I said to him, like, holy shit, I go, how were you at that comfort level? How did you get to that comfort level where you just didn't give a shit
Starting point is 00:41:56 about Disney, you're in the Disney campus, have you ever been in the Disney campus? Yeah, but I mean, I mean, Vinnie. But you know what you said to me? What? This is what you said. Oh, this is a fucking longer story for this and I almost fucked it up. Go ahead. He just looked at me and he said, Vinnie. But you know what he said to me? What? He said, oh, this is the fucking longest story for this and I almost fucked it up.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Go ahead. He just looked at me and he said, Vinnie, he doesn't give a shit what I do. I'm just being myself. If they want me, they want me. If they don't, they don't. I have nothing to do with what I do. He said I could get this job because my voice is right
Starting point is 00:42:16 cause it's wrong. You can't just say something about you right now. You're a storyteller. I love something. But in life, you love fucking, that fucking beginning middle end or that fucking lifetime story You just told on my podcast really makes me sick. I was that bad because it doesn't well here
Starting point is 00:42:32 It is I don't need to hear a fucking brewer story. I can you have nine stories like that. I have fucking nice But what taught me to not give a shit that's my fucking a week ago for God's sakes Go on you do that. You know what you know what, no, I didn't. I didn't do that. We all know not to give a fuck. It's the decision, don't think for a second. There's times where Brewer does give a fuck. I'm sure he does.
Starting point is 00:42:56 So it's just at that moment that it's like whatever that was, voice over work or whatever the job, I'm gonna give a fuck, I've done a million. But when it comes time to book that fucking Steven Sparrowberg, maybe an Oscar, holy shit, people give a fuck. It's our decision to make. I'm gonna tell you something, I don't think I'll give a fuck anymore. It's our decision to make.
Starting point is 00:43:17 That's good, if you don't. I don't think I do. It's our decision to make, but also what helps you not give a fuck. And I've talked to Patrice about this, is the fucking scratch gut, okay? Where you are financially. If you got money to pay your bills and you don't have to worry about next month's rent, like a lot of us do, you don't give a fuck because you, I don't need you. But let me take the notes that helps you not give a fuck. When your wife walks in the door and you're obviously happy.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Right, yes. Okay, so you know that I think of it. That does help you, right? You're absolutely your life, your life. And this goes back to what you say, you've said a couple times is your life, you have a life, you've said that to me, you have a life. So I agree with you, man, you brought that up a couple times.
Starting point is 00:44:00 People forget, and I didn't have a life for around maybe 12 years of this business Maybe longer where I fuck life. I was married to comedy. I was married to the road I was married to doing making people laugh right that's all I gave a fuck about as becoming Funny or it's successful and then all of a sudden I woke up one day and I almost lost it all it almost all went away and all I would have been left with was this fucking business. And I made a choice, you know what?
Starting point is 00:44:29 I'm gonna, I'm gonna go be happy. Yeah. In life. And that's the day I became funny. That's when I started being funny. Well, you know, I just went out and we had meetings. We were pitching a show and we had meetings. Who's we?
Starting point is 00:44:41 Well, Brewer and I produced a show now. What is it? Well, this was a reality show about my life. Really? Yeah. What's it called? It's called the Brands of Comedy. And it's good.
Starting point is 00:44:52 It's very good. It's got great reception. I know, maybe Zinc, that's that. It's so confident. No, that I like that, that's stupid. You actually, you know what I'm saying? There's only certain people's names. Like, my name stinks because you can't do anything.
Starting point is 00:45:04 I'm like, dang cook. What a fucking name. That's great name. What a fucking dang cook. Cooking, cooking with dain. Yeah. Cooking common. There's so many fuck DC, fucking,
Starting point is 00:45:14 and you're a fucking Vinny brand. That should not make sense, but all of a sudden the brands are gonna motherfucker. Well, I'll take them out. Well, we'll get in that in a minute. It's a good name. You're gonna need me on another couple of podcasts.
Starting point is 00:45:25 But the thing is that in pitching this show, I'm sitting there with these executives and they're the big, they're the decision makers. There's levities involved, e-wons involved, William Morrison devils involved. We're in with the right people. And one guy sitting in the mean, what do you want out of the show?
Starting point is 00:45:38 I said, let's not say something. The show doesn't have anything for me. Just something I'm doing now. I go, I want to do business with you. I really do. I go, I'm gonna be very honest with you. If my phone rings, my wife, and she needs to talk to Just something I'm doing now. I go, I want to do business with you, I really do. I go, I'm going to be very honest with you. If my phone rings, my wife, and she needs to talk to me, I'm going to walk out that door, I'm not going back.
Starting point is 00:45:50 And the guy's like, really, you would say, I got this a man. I really want you to check me out, but I'm telling you right now, if that phone rings, my wife, I'm walking out. It's great meeting you. And I still want to do it, but that's what's important to me. And after the meeting, the guy goes, Hey, man, I've never had anyone talk to me like that. And I was like, great, because I hope we can do it, but that's what's important to me. Right. And after the meeting, I go, hey, man,
Starting point is 00:46:05 because I've never had anyone talk to me like that. Right. And I was like, great, isn't it? I hope we can do some work together. Now, who knows? You may not buy the show, but I thought you sold the show. No, we haven't sold it yet. You're producing it with...
Starting point is 00:46:15 We've produced it, and we're pitching it. Did you already film it? Oh, yes. Yeah. So, what is the show about? Tell me the show is about it. It's just about me being a comic, owning the club. You know, my life's kind of crazy.
Starting point is 00:46:23 I'm on the board of education. I coach two soccer teams. I have sheep and goats. I have a farm. Yeah. You know, I'm completely over dedicated to my family. Right. And I love this career.
Starting point is 00:46:35 And I know people can I ask you a question? Yeah. Do you do drugs? No. You on anything? This is you. Yeah. All the time.

This is the thing, it's now, I feel more empowered now in my life than ever, because the walls have been taken away. The keys. Listen, you're doing a podcast that nobody at NBC or CBS,
Starting point is 00:47:36 or anyone else can say, no, no, Robert didn't fit our, no, they can't stop you. Well, I actually said this two years ago, me, Billy, Burr, and Joe DeRosa were talking, and we were having the, it's the same shit. It's like, look, you wanna be accepted into the inner circle of course. You want the fucking NBC,
Starting point is 00:47:54 he's in the CBS and the fucking, the levities and the CAAs and all. Of course you do. Of course. But it usually happens when you don't want it. We're not that we don't want it, when you don't give a fuck about it Yeah, when I stopped when I told Matt Frost I don't want to audition for any more festivals
Starting point is 00:48:11 I'm done being rejected the next year. I got every single festival. Yeah, literally in a row like no Boom boom boom boom boom. No is the most powerful word because you say you know I got my shit if you want it right offer to me don't ask me to show you my where you know, I got my shit. If you want it, offer to me. Don't ask me to show you my where, you know who the hell I am. But I didn't hate, this is the other thing too. I didn't hate him. The other corner, the other side of it, some people hate them.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Some people hate the business. Some people get bitter and fuck them. And, you know, like, I never hated the festivals. Now, now that I'm like Montreal Festival, just for, I love, I am good friends with a lot of people that run that festival. I really give a shit about people behind the scenes. And you like the people.
Starting point is 00:48:49 If they never pick me again, I don't care. But if they do, that's great. But I really care about them. And I've had the best time. The last festival was fucking great. And like I said this to Burr, like I was saying, two years ago, it was like why, I was sitting there with Joe talking about some funny shit.
Starting point is 00:49:07 I said, this is our movie. And I said, this is it. Why go try to sell to somebody? Why go try to pitch it to somebody? Why go on an audition? Why go on a fucking audition? And try to book a role that 99.9% I'm not going to get. Because somebody famous wants it. Let's just go make this. book a role that 99.9% I'm not gonna get. Right.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Because somebody famous wants it. Let's just go make this. Let's spend our money, not on video games, not on fucking bullshit. Let's take a few grand each and make this movie. And we fucking did. And then it went into fucking the festivals. I'm not trying to move, I heard it's good.
Starting point is 00:49:40 Yeah, it's a great movie. It's a 15 minute short. Try it back, I loved it, picked it up, it killed. That's why I have that fucking, that's why I'm in the writers guild. Because that little fucking thought, and we didn't say, fuck it, or maybe next, oh, we just went and did it, and then we kept doing it. We kept doing the next step and the next step, and the next step and kept doing that.
Starting point is 00:50:00 We got a fucking book deal coming out with Simon and Schuster for that little thought. Ned, you got a copy. Can I take a copy home and watch it? What? The movie? I'll get you the link. I love it. Hey, here's the thing, too. Now, 15 years ago, that wasn't doable for a lot of other reasons because the technology
Starting point is 00:50:15 because you had a deviled film because some guy had to sit there and slice and cut. Yeah. You have a fucking, some little nerdy guy in a room going, you know, to get a fucking, someone got a nerdy guy in a room going, you know, you had to get a fucking, you had to rent the $500,000 camera. Exactly. A pan, a pan of vision. And you can shoot him down. I got the flip camera, it was pretty good.
Starting point is 00:50:32 I'll tell you what, what are they? The five Ds, Canon five Ds, is that what they call it? Great camera here. I, I, I, I, I'm no joke. No fucking joke. I had, you know, Jim Cerebroco from Apostle. I, he came to one of my shows with his fucking 5D. We thought of a show the night before the steakhouse.
Starting point is 00:50:50 The next day we shot it. Absolutely. A fucking, we shot a fucking... Did you light it? We didn't need to. You know what I mean? It was a fucking, it's a talk show out of the back of a U-Haul truck. And we literally just pull up to star- anywhere.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Pull up, open the back, and we interview fucking everyday people. Robert, I have had this idea forever, but I'm gonna tell you something a little bit different. I'll little twist. And I'd love to do it with you if you're already doing it. I don't want to worry about it. Sorry, done, but go ahead. What are you doing in as a regular thing?
Starting point is 00:51:15 Yeah. Oh, let me tell you, I'd love to be a... We use it all. You hold, yeah. No, I'm not doing it all. What I was gonna do is the Roving Talk Show. And what I wanted to do is, for example, for musical guests, I wanted to go into the subway.
Starting point is 00:51:30 And okay, there's a guy playing the flute. He's my musical guest. We actually pull up, we'll go, we actually pull up to the house. Like the last episode, we pulled up to the house of the band and they came out and did the fucking show on the back of the near the U-Haul. And then we interviewed them on the show, like a regular show, and then we actually did comedy. So I would, I'll definitely love to have you. I'd love you. If you want to do that. We had a
Starting point is 00:51:57 Dan Soda, we pulled up right into a Dunkin' Donuts. There was like 10 people in the crowd from Dunkin' Donuts in There was like 10 people in the crowd from Dunkin' Donuts in an entire place, and he did five minutes standup right there. It's great. Right now on the truck, five minutes standup killed it for five minutes, and then we did the interview on the show, did trivia, there was an audience there,
Starting point is 00:52:16 people just walking by, there was a traffic jam behind them. Crazy shit. But that's more entertaining than something I got scrubbed by Who's ever people scrub meaning you know well sanitize and washed and you know you can't do that joke and you can't just right Yeah, I mean look at we keep it I keep it more clean that I do this podcast because I do yeah I do want fucking you haul is giving us free trucks, you know You know great great company and you know, other companies, we pull up to a Dunkin' Donuts.
Starting point is 00:52:46 We get Dunkin' Donuts to sponsor it. We could pull up, there was a, a UPS truck drove by. I mean, literally the sponsorship is endless on this fucking show. It's unreal. We pull up anywhere and interview anybody any time. And we had a doctor on the show
Starting point is 00:53:00 who was an ex-gang member. We had these chicks at Starbucks. See, to me, that show is more interesting than me listening to James Franco talking about how he got into the character of the guy at 127 hours. Not that James Franco was an interesting, I'm sure he is. But okay, they've been doing that forever. You can find Jimmy Stewart talking about getting into character with Johnny Carson. And now I've heard every douchebag talking about getting into character with Johnny Carson. And now I've heard every douchebag talking about getting into character. But here's the thing is that, you know, I think around maybe 10 years ago,
Starting point is 00:53:30 you sat around and waited for somebody to give you something. Right? When somebody tapped you on the shoulder and said, you kid, and then when it didn't happen to guys like you or me or whatever, we just faded off into the distance. Disappeared. Doesn't fuck that. Absolutely. Now we get to fucking just do it ourselves
Starting point is 00:53:47 And you know it's funny robber is the walls are coming down Faster now right because listen you ask my daughter I bet you my daughter doesn't watch my television my daughter is watching wherever she watches on her MacBook Okay, so for her I bet you shouldn't watch modern family which is a good show. It's a funny show Yeah, but you probably don't watch it because for her Well, why would I sit down and watch TV? Yeah, I'm gonna watch what I want to watch when I want to watch it I want to see a guy getting hit in the balls with a with a sledgehammer on YouTube So the walls are coming down faster all the time and now it's gonna be the race to who can produce and who is the
Starting point is 00:54:24 Personality to draw people and entertain them and this is what we've been doing for 20 years. So I think it's guys like us. And I don't mind telling people, look, you know what, when I walk on stage, I don't worry about whether you're in entertainment. I know I'm going to entertain you. That's not, I'm not, that's the furthest thing from my mind. Yeah, I mean, it's, it's, you know, it's weird. I think that, I think one thing that fame does give you is it gives you true fans of your comedy. And I was talking to Billy Gardell about this too, because he kind of popped.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Oh yeah. He was, you know, just a guy like one of us and then got that fucking boom, that break. I think he was weak. He said he was weak so way. I'm quitting. A week's away from quitting. What did he really? Yeah, he was weak. So he had a gig. His friend, um, his friend had a radio show in Pittsburgh. And they offered him a spot on the show. Just he could do his comedy, do the
Starting point is 00:55:18 show and just live life. Just just live fucking life. Yeah. And I think, you know, that's what he, that's what he fucking did. He was gonna do that and then boom, just, you go dude. And now, all of a sudden he's showing up at shows and they're fucking sold out with people, 100% people to see him. That's why I love clubs that don't give tickets out. That don't do, you know, that's why I love doing shows
Starting point is 00:55:44 at the factory, you give some tickets out. That don't do, you know, that's why I love doing shows at the factory, you give some tickets out, but very, very few. Right, but you sell fucking tickets. So people that come there either love your club and know what to expect and not act, or they love the comic that's there and wanna see him. You know, I don't really have troublemakers at your club. No, in fact the last troublemaker we had,
Starting point is 00:56:04 kind of funny was a, it was at the club? No. No. In fact, the last trouble maker we had kind of funny was that the Wayne's brother show. Well, here you go. Yeah, but it was a 72 year old white drunk grandmother. Really? And I forget what you guys were on stage. It was one of the black brothers. And one of the black brothers.
Starting point is 00:56:23 Yeah, one of the black brothers. But he was great because we had to call the cops. I mean, the ordeal to get this, we were so drunk, should be carried out by the cops. The drunk grandson took a swing at me. It was a real mess. Really. And getting out of the room, he stayed on stage the whole time. It took probably 45 minutes.
Starting point is 00:56:42 He narrated the whole fight. And then he went right back and it was like, and murdered. They're very nice. Very funny guys and very nice guys. They're Wayne's brothers are nice guys. It's a little annoying that, you know, I mean, look, you would do the same thing. It's just keep passing it on and passing it on. Yeah. Why wouldn't you? People get annoyed at, dude, fucking, how many Wayne's brother, but what are you gonna do? Why would you not want your brother and your other brother and your other fucking cousin and your old talented? And they're all counted. And they're all counted. Well, let's not mean they are you know I tell you something they write those movies and Stand up those two guys. They just started workers. They work very hard work. They're fucking workers
Starting point is 00:57:14 That's one thing that I realized in the last yeah in the last three years Just go to work right a guy did every right? Write a fucking script. Absolutely. Write a TV show. Yep. If it fails, write another one. Yep. Film something.
Starting point is 00:57:30 Keep doing it. Do a podcast. If it failed, keep doing it. Yep. Just keep doing it. Just work. The work. If you do the work, if you keep your fucking head down,
Starting point is 00:57:38 yeah. Fuck your agent and they suck and your manager and they're they don't get you what you want. You do the work and you'll get something from it. I agree. It's funny, Robert. I did a comics tale, which we taped and filmed in shot. And it's great.
Starting point is 00:57:51 That's a story-tongued show. And it's, it was- I was supposed to do that. Yes, you were. I fucking had to bail. What happened? I forget something came on my grandfather. Yes, that's right.
Starting point is 00:58:01 My grandfather passed away. But you know who he is? He's doing a show. Wait a year. What a fucking shit year it's, dude. I'm so sick of people fucking dying. Oh, he's the final. Where? I'll do my grandfather Patrice fucking a who you know who did Gerardo filled in for I filled in for him the next week. I was I was literally there that week after Gerardo at your club was the last time I was there. Yeah, I was there the we and it was fucking
Starting point is 00:58:23 after Duraldo at your club was the last time I was there. I was there the wheat and it was fucking, well that night, two things, Duraldo filled in for our comic style. Brewer had a death in his family. It was me, Brewer and Brandon down in Philly, doing a comic style. Brewer coming up here, listen man, my uncle just passed away.
Starting point is 00:58:39 I can't come tonight. So we called Tom Papa couldn't do it. We called a bunch of people, I drawed and said let's not come do the show. It was very skeptical coming down. This is really funny because he went on stage and treated it for the first 10 minutes like Tough Crowd. And you know how crazy Kevin Brennan is.
Starting point is 00:58:56 Kevin Brennan's yelling, it's not Tough Crowd! Yeah, it's great. And Brennan is a staricle. So, draw the then settle down and start telling stories and not shitting on other guys while they were telling their stories. So he got it. So at the end of it, Jorado says, hey, because it took me coming in to get it, he goes, that's a really fun show to do.
Starting point is 00:59:16 I can't wait to do another one. But Brennan was still pissed off that he had tough crowded it for the first 10 minutes. And Brennan looked at him, you're not serious Kevin, you're not doing another one. Which was, you know, it's start really funny. But, Jorala filled in love with the show because this show is different than most story-tongues. This show you go up, you do 10 minutes, the stand up, everyone does their 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:59:38 And then you can back up and you tell each, just like we're hanging right now. And you're gonna be wearing some shit about me and I'm gonna tell you some stories. With the audience, it becomes very, very fun to do. So I shot that show, I'm pitching that show. I shot the reality show, I'm pitching that. I'm gonna shoot another show in January,
Starting point is 00:59:54 because the walls are down, I can go produce more. You take the money you have that you make, and you can actually produce shit. Absolutely. And just sell it, and get people to, and if it doesn't work Just keep doing it and you know what happens to is it sooner or later someone says hey, I got to be in business with that guy Because that guy's gonna hit or he's energetic or he's doing the work
Starting point is 01:00:15 Well, here's the thing it's even like with this podcast is that you know Thank God that these the people who fucking listen to this thing. Yeah, uh, you know thousands of people I can't it went from hundreds to thousands great. Yeah. It was thousands of people. I can't, it went from hundreds to thousands. It's great.

I mean, here's the thing too, is like, you know, as soon as like this kitchen, the reason why I want my house back is

There was nothing better than Norton would come over, eat, play with my dog, fall asleep, I'm a recliner. Oh yeah. Eat some more.

I'll call you I'm a good dinner companion I hope you cancel I know some very good places in Manhattan. I bet you do I like the session about fucking Norton though Is that he takes you out to eat? He'll be like, let's go get some food and he takes you to fancy places. I'm a last dinner I had in the city without a set being attached. Right. Or they were the comic right was with Patrice right.
Starting point is 01:24:35 Uh, after we did tough crowd. I think years ago that was. I remember sitting there saying, well, it's just nice. We're just hanging out having dinner. In fact, I think they all made it with us. Um, and you're just hanging out having dinner. In fact, I think Danielle made it with us. And you may have been at that dinner. We went to the Virgizio, the Brazilian joint. Oh, it's called a platiforma. Platiforma. That's where we went.
Starting point is 01:24:52 I think you were there. We went to the original one in Brazil. Yes. We went to the guy who owns the one here. We went to the one when we were in Brazil. But you know, it's so funny is, you know, I was on vacation this week. And, you know, it's so funny is, you know, I was on vacation this week and you know, I literally thought about him every fucking day.
Starting point is 01:25:12 And I was in the ocean by myself, just bawling, like a little baby thinking about me. No, not you. But a tree said I was just like, I just don't get it. Still, I still don't get it. It's still, I still can't, it doesn't make sense to me. Yeah, it does, it, it's one of those weird things, it's like I have, because I've talked, I think the Von just, if I can't, I don't.
Starting point is 01:25:31 It's one of those weird things where sometimes it just makes completely no sense and you think you can go back and undo it, but you can't. It's very, very surreal. It just doesn't, I sit there and I'm like, I don't get it. It's like, I don't, I sit there and I'm like, I don't get it. It's like, I don't, because here's the thing is, we would go for so long and not talk,
Starting point is 01:25:50 because we're comics. And then all of a sudden, you just talk to them every day, and see them all the time. Right. And it's like nothing ever happened. Yeah, there's that sense that, oh, he's going to be back any day, because he's just away. And I still have that. Like, it doesn't make sense to me that I'm not gonna be oh It doesn't fucking make sense at all I don't I don't get it. I don't understand it how it it's just it's not fucking computing to me
Starting point is 01:26:13 It's still fucking killing me like have you lost so many people in my life I'm actually I can I understand it. I don't like it I don't that it's disturbing and it's upsetting, but I get it because the bottom line, this is what I tell people, and I don't mean to get into something heavy thing, but the bottom line is, you're born, you live for a while, you die, that's the gig.
Starting point is 01:26:33 And I get very upset now, people that piss away my time with their unnecessary drama. Like I'm really at the point now where it was just drama and my life, okay, go do that somewhere else. Because I don't know when my last day is, no one does. And no one, and even, you know, I really just don't wanna be around that. Because I think I've come and understand that more and more.
Starting point is 01:26:54 And I think Jorral though, you know, you know, Barry J, right? Barry J, yeah. Barry J, my friend of the club, who's in the sand and whatnot. You know, my friend Barry never smoked it in his life. He's dead he's the best way, but he had tongue cancer. She said last Tuesday If it doesn't smoke how does he get that? Well, that's my whole point is he had his tongue is lion control removed and you know no one's hand no one's handled this kind of He said to that
Starting point is 01:27:20 Well, you know, listen, I'll tell you something right now Barry Jay is the most he's the strongest person I know because I took I picked him up from hospital yesterday Do you think he got it? Honestly you can get it like they see you get throat cancer from oral sex if you someone Well, it's seriously someone has like from the head from that or TV or yeah, really? Yeah Fucking it can be I don't know I'm answer. I don't think they can pin it down the white head It's tongue and larynx was that's a guy tongue and larynx. You guys we can't know, I'm answer, I don't think they can pin it down to white. He got his tongue in larynx. Was that the guy's tongue in larynx? He got his trident on me.
Starting point is 01:27:47 I'm sorry. He can't talk. He'll never talk, never saw food again. But here's the point, don't leave your life in this, you gotta live your life in a happy place because you know what, you just don't know what's coming down the box. Did he drink? You know, not, not a heavy drinker. I mean, he enjoyed scotch.
Starting point is 01:28:02 I didn't know he had tongue cancer Yeah, he had been experiencing slurred speech for six months. They today the million tests Nothing couldn't diagnose it and then finally they diagnosed it with tongue cancer and that was the treatment Wow, they would have gotten early when they would have been able just to take out a little piece You know what I ask you know what sucks about this this stage of life is that something's coming for all of us I ask, you know what sucks about this, this stage of life is that something's coming for all of us. Something's coming. Listen, well, I just don't know what the fuck it is. But that's a very good thing to keep in your head and live your life positive. Listen, again, I don't want to turn to Tony Robbins But yeah, you got to know that so enjoy your moment. If he's standing in for I see a common order And I see the comment on your stupid face. I fucking said I just I know you should have me. You're

I hate them. I don't know what that at all. It's a good philosophy. I, uh, uh, it's just fun. I mean him. I don't know what that is all. It's a good philosophy. I, that's just fun. I mean, that's why I go on vacation every year. I actually, I opted out of the last episode of this show that I'm on, the CBS show. I called them up.
Starting point is 01:29:17 I said, if you guys need me, this is months ago. If you need me for that week, great. But I'm like a week to week. So I don't know if they're gonna use, I didn't know if they're gonna use I didn't know if they're gonna They're gonna use me the week after they want to be using me every episode It's great just writing me in but I didn't know that but it's like okay Do I gamble and just just stick it out and then they don't use me and then I don't go on of it You know so I said look if you're gonna use me let me know and I'll cancel it

And I said, well, before you go to the cops, let me tell you what Mark did. Right. And she got mortified. Now, six months ago, I got to my dentist. Yeah. And the hygienist says, a Mark sister.
Starting point is 01:39:51 Yeah. Oh, no shit. I go, yeah. And I was like, a little uncomfortable and she goes, I will you know, you saved Mark's life. I go, what? And she goes, after that night that you did that, he's straightened up and he stopped being,
Starting point is 01:40:02 because he was being a pan in the ass. Tell a lot of people. And she says, you saved his life life I think you choked it out of them right I told I told Vinny this he liked stories with the beginning middle and a happy end ending he's a very lifetime channel conversation there's a moral there's a ray of sunshine morals at the end of the end of every one of his I almost killed somebody stories it's not about his rage issues yeah we're about the fact that he has a at the end of every one of his, I almost killed somebody's stories.
Starting point is 01:40:25 It's not about his rage issues. We're about the fact that he has a fucking hair trigger temper. It's the ray of sunshine at the end. You really are. You know, fucking glasses have. The real story is, I almost choked the kids that instead of firing him, but he turns it into, I saved his life. That's good. That's great.
Starting point is 01:40:43 Wow. That's very good. That's very good. That's like Richard Speck telling you, but you're like, no, I just prevented a bunch of bad nurses from getting jobs. Oh, shit. Anyways, man. Well, listen, we're promoting the stress factory.

Where'd you go? I went skiing that time.

Well Lenny with Lenny's not He's probably a little scared of his position at the Salo Me right now where he's you know, he's maybe a little nervous Where it's like can you do that for me? Do me a solid? Yeah, because you know this thing he doesn't want SD to be in bad standing and not get spots because Rasty's using them and you know explaining you know and then things you know sometimes when you do Theran Jim, you know, and then yeah see here's a difference.
