Starting point is 00:22:38 questions like I was in a whole movie and after a while, and then I tell them, I only have one line, man. Leave me alone, leave me alone. Leave you alone? Leave me alone. Now I know you from last Comic Standing. Yes. Where you popped off and you did it probably the last year that it was kind of big, right?

Because it was a weird, who hosted it the year you were there? Craig Robinson, Andy Kindler was the judge and Greg Girardo was the judge and so was Latasha Leguero. And you won?
Starting point is 00:23:18 Yeah I won. How crazy was that? It was crazy, I didn't think I was going to make it that far. Because I was telling, I was lucky to be on the show. Why? I was telling because they do a criminal check. Did we do one? One day they put me to the side and said, you know that you have two outstanding warrants,
Starting point is 00:23:46 a bench warrant, and you have one arrest on site. Why? That's what I said, why? It ain't me. And I said, I said, man, I haven't been arrested since I was 20 and 21. It's not that long ago. And the judge said that it was a DA reject.
Starting point is 00:24:06 It was not enough evidence, so they let it go. Are you sure? Because there's like two more. Then I started thinking about it, because you know, I was like going like, no, I gotta wait with that, I gotta wait with this, I gotta wait with that. You just gotta think about all your crimes?
Starting point is 00:24:21 Yeah, I wasn't there for that one. Oh, then I finally said, okay, my brother used my name and committed a bunch of crimes. Your brother used your name? What's your brother's name? His name is Angel. He stole my identity. Why would he use that name? It's a cool crime name. Yeah, but he already used up that name right away by the time he was 22. Really? And so in his 30s, he used my name. So my brother committed a bunch of crimes and they're gonna kick me off the show because of his crimes. So I had to prove that wasn't me.
Starting point is 00:24:52 My brother, he's like the Juan identity, the born identity. He's never been on no social media, no address. This guy doesn't know it. No, he has no identity. No ID, never had an ID so he just um no picture of him so his daughter gave me a photo of him that she has of him holding his grandson and I gave that to the prime investigator you ratted your brother out to you know I have to bro and he compared that to the

Starting point is 00:25:39 No, he's gone, bro. He lives in a home in Rosarito Beach. So, because of you? Because of committing more crimes and three strikes. They finally caught up to him. But was your ratting him out to get on the TV show, part of the three strikes? No, because he went on to commit more crimes and he went to prison, got out, and then...

I've been watching Baywatch in Spanish Hey watch they watch in Spanish Show sucks
Starting point is 00:29:42 Not in Spanish Is it muy bien in Spanish. It's based in Miami. Well, no, because I went to Cuba with Ari and we went down. Where do you fly out of? Miami. What airline? Southwest? American. I don't know what's in Miami. Yeah, American. You fly right out. I don't know where in Cuba. Huh? It actually take they take 20% of your money when you get there. No, they take nothing Flying you go there in support of the Cuban people hundred dollar Visa right at the gate and they fill it a couple forms ahead of time. It's easy fly into Cuba
Starting point is 00:30:19 Get off the plane you go through security which is a pain in the ass because you know Get off the plane, you go through security, which is a pain in the ass, because there's fucking a million people going through two lanes, and nobody gives a shit, and they just cut you, keep you cool together, and then get through, had a guy pick us up at the airport, we rented a casa for the week, and they picked us up at the airport,
Starting point is 00:30:39 drove us right to the casa, dropped our bags, walked around for seven days, we spent, I think, seven days in Cuba. During the election, we went during the election because we don't want to know who won. We don't want to deal with any of that shit, so we just went there knowing that they wouldn't really give a damn.
Starting point is 00:30:53 Were there drugs over there? Dude, Cuba's, I'm sure there was, but you can't fuck around there. You'll go away for 10 years. Anything you do, you get caught. Even prostitution. Prostitution used to be a thing down there, but they found out that they were making so much money
Starting point is 00:31:09 without the government getting their money, they made it illegal. So if you get caught, 10 years. You go to jail, that's it. Drugs, you get, that's why it's kind of safe. Because if you get caught robbing somebody, you go right to fucking jail. There's no both.
Starting point is 00:31:24 Did they cut your hands off? No, no, no, no, why would they, what is it, 1800s? No, they have, you know, you just go to jail. It's a little safe, but it is, you know, it's kind of frightening a little bit, because everybody needs money, it's a poor country. But when I went there, they had a hurricane, and the power went out damn electricity is gone
Starting point is 00:31:47 the water was gone and I had you know we had to go get food and stuff But I'm just some stupid American that knows with a Boston accent Okay, so Kso Pan I'm just looking shit up I'm just looking shit up. You're in cheesecake.

So he went to a restaurant that's in a house with somebody. Yeah, a lot of the places are like that. And those are government owned too? The government gets a piece, everything.

Starting point is 00:32:55 So you gotta bring cash, you gotta exchange it with people there, which is illegal too. You're supposed to do it with the bank, but you gotta be careful, you exchange the money. And then, so I think it's, you know, 50 bucks is 300 fucking pesos, right? And then you try to go to those places where the people are. So, you know, like if you go to a hotel,
Starting point is 00:33:18 that's government owned. All the hotels are government owned. So every other country can stay there except for us. And like we couldn't even order food. We went there one day and got coffee and they were like, it's credit card, we're not taking cash. And we had American cash, they're like, look, we can't, we're not supposed to take this shit,
Starting point is 00:33:36 we'll get in trouble. But then of course we took it because we gave him a 20. That's like $7,000 million to him. So yeah, we bought everything on the street, went to, it was pretty cool, man, it was cool, but it was wild not knowing the language. For me. Did they know Joe Diaz over there? Joey Diaz?

I thought he lived in Burbank, cocksucker. Yeah, cocksucker, you go see my aunt or whatever. Somebody, but we didn't, the heart, we were gonna go out to where they were.

Starting point is 00:47:38 You have to put that in a movie. That's fantastic. Oh that guy! That guy was partying with that night when I took to Xanax for five days straight. Jose Suarez. He said that... Get him a water, please. He wants to come to my show. His fucking mouth, he's so high, his mouth is dry.
Starting point is 00:47:57 I'm getting thirsty watching his mouth. It's like the opposite of hot ones, it's thirst ones. Yeah, I mean, he's dying, here you go. Give him that one. Throw that one over there. Joe, can you take that one? Thanks, there you go, brother. Are you stoned right now?
Starting point is 00:48:12 No. No? I was with Ian. Ian Edwards. And then there was a Chubby. No, Ian, finance. There was a finance? For dance. And there was a Chubby kid there who looked like Bobby Hill.
Starting point is 00:48:25 This fat guy was his name. I know he's Brendan Sagalow. You didn't even need to say it. Once you said fat guy with Ian, I knew it was Brendan Sagalow. He had two joints that he put together and I took one here and that was it. Yeah, was it good? No. It wasn't good?
Starting point is 00:48:44 It was good, but not what I'm used to. Did you travel with weed and mushrooms? No because I look like somebody that has weed and mushrooms. So you put on her because she looks like somebody that would travel with like beanie babies. Yeah. Or hummels. I mean that's a compliment you look like a, pure white chick. Hey, only one beanie baby here, bro. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. A collector's item, too. So you got this special out. You and your wife put it together.
Starting point is 00:49:13 I love to hear that. And I love that Netflix bought it, too, because look, they usually in-house. Yes. They usually want to have their own little thing that they do, so for them to buy it, it must have been good. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:49:25 Yeah, the last special I did was a Netflix special in-house. Yeah. And they paid me and I said, how about if I do two? So I did one in Spanish. And I translated the whole English special into Spanish. Wow. As best as I could, but some of the words didn't translate too well because of the double entendres.
Starting point is 00:49:46 They didn't work in Spanish, so I had to write new material in Spanish just for the Spanish special. So you have a Spanish special. Yeah. And you have an American special. Yes. Same special. Same special. Just a little different.
Starting point is 00:49:57 Yeah. Which one did better? They were in the same, see that? That's what really pissed me off, man. That's what really pissed me off. I thought it was going to be like bad decisions on one thumbnail, right? And then the second one, mala decisiones, which should have been the second thumbnail. But they didn't do, they did me wrong, bro. They put the translate this in English and then when you, the thumbnail and then when you click on it, it says episode two is a Spanish one. So if you don't, you got
Starting point is 00:50:32 to really look for, search for it in Spanish. It's a series. Yeah. They shot, they put it on like a series instead of putting it as two specials. So it's like episode one is the English episode two of the Spanish So you don't even know what the fuck people are weirded out by it. Yeah, they don't understand what it is They thought it was two different things. Yeah, it's hard to find Well, that sucks, but do you have a lot of Spanish fit? Do you have to go and perform? Can you go to other country you go to America go and do a show or do you do Spanish shows for Spanish people? I was practicing my Spanish in Los Angeles and all the like all over California But I run into a problem when I would do a word that's not a real Spanish word
Starting point is 00:51:17 Because I'm Mexican Americans in Los Angeles, East LA especially and New Mexico and Texas We have a language that only we could understand and I found out the hard way when I and New Mexico and Texas we have a language that only we could understand and I found out the hard way when I went to Mexico and those words that naturally at all they don't know what the hell I was talking about right now when you said Hamel that's a common thing that white people do that oh after every Hummel is that it right there at all after every when you say ham oh ham you say Hamel that's like a white thing that people do they had an old after every when you say ham. Oh ham you say ham. Oh, that's like a white thing that people do They had an O after every Spanish word like your son. Oh, it's not doing his homework. Oh, yeah, right Cuz that's so Mexican so we are a yes
Starting point is 00:51:54 We are a yes on a hand English word. Oh, so a sprite becomes a sprite. That's right. Yeah Pepsi is Pepsi, right? But there's words like breaks. And we call it break us. But that's not a fucking Spanish word at all. It's not the right word is friend or friend, which I fucking didn't know. You know, my dad will say break us all the time. Okay, fix my break us. So I went to so I had to go to Tijuana, Mexico, and I met some Tijuana comedians, this guy named Joel, and he helped me translate the jokes into the Spanish, the right Spanish. And I started practicing more, going to Tijuana,
Starting point is 00:52:37 going to TJ every fucking week, every other week. And I would have a bunch of comics go up local comics and they wanna yeah they will do Spanish and then we'll close it out with trying to do for 35 minutes in Spanish at first then I build it to one hour to a comfortable then I finally I headline at the comedy store in Spanish Netflix said no to it they like it so then I went back to Mexico changing more words then I went to this Mexican bar in Sylmar California and then Netflix people showed up and I destroyed and they said
