Starting point is 00:03:50 Yeah thank you And I helped you produce I produced it live The live shows yes Which it should have been done mostly. Well, the live was with a comic as our marriage counselor. You should have did a season, 12 episodes, live, everyone, film them. I should have stayed single.
Starting point is 00:04:07 Shut the fuck up. Yeah, what I should have done? I should have hung with a better crew of comics, all right? Now, when you fucking zeros, all right? There's a lot of things. I should have, I should have graduated high school, okay? That's not a shoulda. He couldn't.

Starting point is 00:05:20 Because I started, when I started, I started in Seattle, because Seattle was one of the places where I knew, they didn't do like five minute sets. You went and got 15 minutes. Right. And so I started there with Joey Diaz and Brody Stevens and, uh, Joey Diaz started in Seattle? Yeah, yeah, and Mitch Hedberg was circling around up there. Right. And so we all got like, instead of hustling and being on a list with that many people doing five minutes, we could go get 10 or 15 minutes, six months into the game. Did you work for that crazy fuck Terry?
Starting point is 00:05:50 up there? No, at Giggles? Yeah. Yo, do you know what he used to do? So, Terry used to... Who is this? At Giggles. He owned Giggles. And he would... So he would fly people in, and then he would be like, he'd bring them to his house and put him on the couch. And he'd be
Starting point is 00:06:06 like, I didn't get you a hotel. And if you don't like it, you can fly home or you can stay on the hotel, on the couch, or you can get your own hotel. That didn't happen with me. He used to fuck the people. Is that the place with Billy Burrow complained about where the guy was the guy would
Starting point is 00:06:21 busing tables or something he would take the tickets at the door then he would bust the tables he would be the waiter he had to do it he'd pick you up in the truck with dog hair all over the place I never I didn't have to stay in his house
Starting point is 00:06:34 but when I was working in the beginning Jeff Dye was doing guest spots in Seattle yeah he was from Seattle I remember he'd come on and do a guest spot and the guy was completely nuts we performed at the comedy underground the original comedy underground to me
Starting point is 00:06:49 still the best club i've ever performed at i think it's where stanhope recorded his first hour but it was one of those clubs it was in the basement and you know the ceiling was maybe a foot and a half above your head right you used to be able to smoke wow and so by the late show there was like a film of yeah just smoke in the basement but i remember the cellar used to be able to smoke yeah used to go downstairs and talking to the microphone dumb dumb yeah i did it's a fucking microphone. We used to go downstairs because the guy who owned the place was an ex-minor league baseball player
Starting point is 00:07:23 and so this was back before phone, cell phones. So the Yankees or whatever team was in town would come over and drink at the bar and we we would do ecstasy and shit with the players in the basement. I'm not going to say his name, but there was one Yankee. He touched you? No.
Starting point is 00:07:38 One time, it was like two in the morning. Derek Cheater. And he was like, if I take this next hit of ecstasy, I'm not playing tomorrow. And they were like, take it you pussy. And he didn't play the next day. Really? Howard Truddery. No,
Starting point is 00:07:49 no. Babe Ruth. Yeah, it was. Luke Eric. You killed Luke Harry. We did kill him. There's no disease. He just took too much access to see.
Starting point is 00:07:58 Put the final nail on that coffin. I didn't know that. You came up with Diaz? I thought Diaz was L.A. No. Seattle. Seattle. Me him and Brody, Seattle.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Get the. Brody Stevens. Yep. So funny. So fucking funny. So, one of my favorite. Okay. He used to just try to do jokes.
Starting point is 00:08:15 And he suppressed. that his personality and then one night the first night we saw him snap he was bombing in the way only brodie knew how to bomb and he said everybody if i seem stressed out it's because i am do you know how hard it is for a single man who lives by himself to shave his own back and he goes i got trouble spots and he lifted up his shirt and there were just patches of hair all over his back and he but he started snapping more and more on stage Which made him so fun. I think he used to bark at Boston Comedy Club.
Starting point is 00:08:50 Yeah. He used to, he was so fucking funny. Oh, my God. I think I remember that. He used to bark out front after Lewis. After Lewis Schaefer, then Brody started barking there. That's how I... And Brody, I mean, it was so funny watching him bomb because he was so funny, but no one got it.
Starting point is 00:09:10 No one got it. You know what I mean? It's like... Well, he would go on stage and quote his GPA from Arizona State. He would talk about, he would be like, he would quote his GPA at Arizona State. He would talk about apple cider vinegar. He just, a lot of benefits, a lot of money. And he would just tell people you should be laughing at my cadence alone.
Starting point is 00:09:31 He was, do you remember Jay London? Yes. Yeah, yeah. That's very similar. He was a cab driver, Jay London. He was? He would pull up in front of Boston in his cab. Yeah, run out.
Starting point is 00:09:43 No. Jump on stage. And then we go. He'd tell a joke, he'd be like, oh, no, bomb. He'd go, kick me in the face. Sir, could you kick me in the face, please? Yeah. Just come up on stage and right in the face.
Starting point is 00:09:56 Just kick me for that last joke. I'm going to kill myself after this set. He would say that a million. After a while, you're like, you probably are. After last comic, he was on the second seat. He did well, you know, he went on tour with those guys, Alonzo or whatever. Then all of a sudden he disappeared. He just disappeared.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Jay London? Yeah. Yeah, I wonder where he went. Well, you know, Paul. Holly is doing that show at the comedy store now where he's bringing back old, old comedy store comics. Right. And Jay London did a set.
Starting point is 00:10:26 No shit. Really? Recently. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what's happening with the comedy store right now? What do you mean? They have a new booker. Well, they got a new book out, right?
Starting point is 00:10:34 Yep. But it's like, okay, for me when I live there, it was kind of the not, like, the improv and the laugh factory was the thing. And I always love the comedy store the most Because it reminded me of the seller Remind me the Boston comedy They reminded me in New York club, right? In L.A.
Starting point is 00:10:52 And then, you know, of course, years later, you know, all these guys, they start doing the stuff. I mean, I remember going there on a Saturday night It wouldn't even have the Big Root open. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. The Red was around there, too. So it was like weird. Now you go back and Rogan and all those guys
Starting point is 00:11:08 and, you know, Tony and I mean, everybody was at you go down there now. It was like, holy shit. this is a revival this is the way the club should be and then all those guys left to go to austin yeah so who's there now i remember one time being there and it was you asking him that question oh yeah oh no he doesn't wear headphones so he doesn't hear me i was like i know you're looking at me looking ready oh no no no i was going to throw in i was going to help him to go to you I was helping him to go to you.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Yeah. It's like literally talking right to the face. Oh. So. I think that I know. I was like we've locked eyes for this entire question. I was so waiting for your answer. And then he went, I remember.
Starting point is 00:12:02 Oh, shut up. Are you going to sing? I can't if you want to go. I heard you got a good voice. Not terrible. Not terrible. I used to. I don't like that you go.
Starting point is 00:12:10 You got sexy on that. You got Elvis. Go ahead for that. It's a comedy story. Here's the thing. When Rogan and all those guys left, I think there was a dip just because when all those people who sell tickets leave, obviously there's going to be. But only two left.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Rogan and Tony, right? Yeah, but a lot of things happened at once. So Rogan left. Tony left. Look, Delia used to sell tickets. When he was on the, right? And so go on. And people like Ali Wong don't allow her name to be on the marquee.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Because she could sell theaters out. Why should she have people? Right, right. So there were some things, but right now. And why does Norton do it? Huh? Because. But right now it's back, man.
Starting point is 00:13:07 It's back. You got down there. You got Santino, you got Lee, Bobby Lee. But Pete Holmes is down there. I think Pete Holmes is funny. I know. I couldn't even tell you. Mark Maron's down there.
Starting point is 00:13:19 Mark's funny. Who's that? Exactly. I'm kidding. But there's... He just went on and he hates. I mean, he hates. But here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:13:29 People should not take offense to Mark Maren hating on all that shit. He didn't like it here. He used to fucking trash me and Godfrey because we were so loud. And we would, you go, why do you have to scream? He's a fucking old Jew broad, and I'm a Jew. Yeah, me too. It's just Marin. He's fucking, it's Maron.
Starting point is 00:13:51 One night I came off stage at a festival or something, and he goes, oh, you do do material. Like, he thought all I did was crowded. I go, first of all, I'll follow him any day or week. But it's Marin. That's what he does. His own psychosis. Yeah, but don't go after.
Starting point is 00:14:07 Comics should not go after other comics. just it's all you do but here's it's so you're not you've never been nice to me because you're not really a comic you're more of a novelty act you fucking bodak
Starting point is 00:14:23 I should be taking dramamine right now fucking cumberman why didn't make that three words drama me because it's the most Filipino pronunciation I'm a black comic now
Starting point is 00:14:35 okay I'm with you man honestly Who gives a fuck what anybody else does? Just entertain the people who come to see you. Shut the fuck up. That's because you started using the guitar. Listen.
Starting point is 00:14:49 That's true. But here's the thing. I didn't use a guitar for so long. Yeah. Because I was out of point. Yeah, because of other comics. And then finally it got to an age where I was like, I don't give a fuck. I don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:15:02 And the truth of the matter is, I'll tell you the best, the worst part about what I've done for my business. Right. Is that I'll do one. If I do five shows a week. weekend. One is just all stories. One might be all crowdwork. One might be just the guitar. I'm doing things that I like to do. Okay. Do you know what I mean? Is that effect? But here, I love that. Not good for my business. I get fucking scared because these people are coming to see a certain something they saw. I'm not done. If I, no, I'm kidding. That was good. What I'm saying is, if you could do
Starting point is 00:15:34 good crowdwork a whole set, but my point is, you're right. It's like if I try to fuck around or let's just free ball and see what happens and I do okay, all those people will be like I'm never going to see. It was all right. I agree with you. Like killing all the time is not good. I feel like it sucks because you put yourself in a hole where you have to, that's what they saw last time and that's what they want to see again. But you have to do new jokes. And new jokes are going to eat dick. Yeah. Right. No, but you do new jokes in between ones at work. Yes. Yes. you do it maybe yes and look here's the thing what's your new joke and nice hat no yes first of all i'm one of the best that crowdwork in the business so shut your mouth first that's one
Starting point is 00:16:20 big j is the best get the fuck out of here gabby brian yeah you i heard gabby does crap here's the thing i love rife and then met rife i never even seen your fourth now first of all you're going to do two shows one night you're going to do your first show Mainly, mostly material, because they're listeners, they're not as drunk. Then the second show, you go, well, I'm tired of doing what I just did. Let me mix it up. And you'll just fucking do what you want. You'll do crowd work, do some material.
Starting point is 00:16:50 We're talking to view headlining. I'm okay. Do you remember the pontoon boat thing? Do you remember the pontoon boat? Yeah, they didn't even listen. No, what happened? The pontoon boat, you were wrapping up. I think you were like, all right, I got to get out of it.

I'm going to tell you a story.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Okay. So what we used to happen is, your poxuckers. Go in there and make yourself a mac and cheese. He would say shit like that. If they were in the car and they'd be talking, he'd go, ah, little kids talk when chickens pee. And I'd be like, what does that mean?
Starting point is 00:30:46 He's like, I don't know. But he would, one night I come home. I would use that. He watches the kids. Well, I would do an early set at the store. And then I'd come back and he'd go do his sense. so one time i come home and kids loved him dude and he was a big dude back then never wore underwear and um i walk in and there's toys on the floor and he goes everybody oh kids pick up the toys
Starting point is 00:31:13 and um my he bends over and there's ass crack is showing and my daughter rips some hair out of his ass crack and she's five and she goes how many and he goes oh it felt like five that time I go, that time. What do you mean that time? What the fuck? And he goes, oh, she loves that game. I go, yeah, I don't do. I don't like that game.
Starting point is 00:31:35 There's so many other games you can play with her. You know what I mean? Why are we doing the ass crack hair game? But Joey Diaz, dude, he used to, and then. What a creative man. Dude, he used to misspell. Okay. One day my daughter's birthday party, and I said to him, I go, hey, where's the C-A-N-D-Y?
Starting point is 00:31:56 and he goes, it's in the DRAW. And I go, what? He goes, it's in the DRAW. I go, that's Jersey right now. I don't know what that is, dude. He goes, it's in the drawer. It's in the fucking drawer. And I go, that's not how we spell it.
Starting point is 00:32:11 He goes, that's how I say it. I go, yeah, but you have to spell it the same. You can't just stop, start spelling things the way you say. I know my, my wife yells from me because I go draw. She goes, draw her. But you would spell it correctly. DRAW. There you go.
Starting point is 00:32:26 He used to tell me also He was sure that the saying was Memory like a Hawk And he'd be like, dude, I got a memory like a hawk I'm like, that's not it. What is it? It's eyesight. But he was, eyesight.
Starting point is 00:32:39 He was convinced it was memory Because he was like, if a hawk leaves a tree in the morning And it flies around a forest, all those trees look the same And it finds its way back to the same tree, that's a good memory. And I was like, okay, it's still not the same.
Starting point is 00:32:51 But they don't find their way back. They were blind. They go all over. And they don't come back to the nest? They come back to a nest, but it's their kids squawking? Yeah, I mean, but when they don't have kids, they kind of roam, don't they? I don't know much about eagles. I think we're talking about hawks.

Starting point is 00:45:40 i don't want to say oh yeah i got it i don't don't respond to what he says I mean he said some vile shit recently about us me and Aaron Berg which was not true something about what being gay Jews filthy
Starting point is 00:45:54 but it wasn't true was filthy before gay or filthy before Jews but I didn't I didn't respond because filthy Jew gay yeah look I used to get the guy rides home from New York
Starting point is 00:46:07 you know to buddy I fucking started the podcast with the guy I used to give him rides and all of a sudden he turns on me Like, I'm his enemy. Like, I've never said anything bad about this guy, and all of a sudden, he's a tie. Because, can I say something? What? It's a style.
Starting point is 00:46:22 That's all it is. Yeah, but don't go after your, supposedly people. It's like saying, don't do crowd work. No, no, I don't know the people I'm doing. Get the fuck out of here. It's just like that. It's just like that. He just doesn't have the tongue and cheek after.
Starting point is 00:46:42 He just says, you fucking hack, fat piece of Jew, filthy shit. End of joke. And then his fans love it, and they fucking, that's it. Oh, wow. It's a style. It's wrestling. I've talked to him. He said it's for the fans.
Starting point is 00:46:58 You know what I mean? He's not going to tell the fans that, but he said, you know, I do this because they like it. Yeah. And that's what he's making money on. But it was a lie what he said before he said that. What? we did those shows me Aaron and Judy
Starting point is 00:47:14 someone there was a promoter and he was sending money to either the IDF or some Jewish thing I don't know I got paid I don't know what the promoter then he says Aaron and and Rich were supposed to send money and they never
Starting point is 00:47:30 first of all I wasn't supposed to send any I just got paid to do shows he goes those filthy Jews you know and it's easy to jump on the fucking Jew bandwagon now. You were paying like the IDF you were donating to that?
Starting point is 00:47:44 No, the promoter was donating to something. Maybe the IDF, maybe something in Israel. I don't know. That was not my concern. My concern was due to show this is what I get paid and I got paid. All right. That's it. So you were supposed to be raising money for
Starting point is 00:48:01 the Jewish cause. Yes. And you were making a profit off of it. Well, no, no. It's a very Jewry thing to do. I mean, what a filthy Jew. Stop. No, no. Come on. You know, we've done. Shut your fucking mouth. We're getting.
Starting point is 00:48:13 Oh, all, goddamn, grumpy Jew. First of all, Jewish. I can't say Jew? No. You wouldn't go to Godfrey. Hey, Black. I have. No, not to his face.
Starting point is 00:48:26 No, never. I've never thought of that before. What? But they do call us Jews. Hey, Jew. You would never go, hey, hey, Reacon, or hey, Black, you know, or, or hey, middle. You wouldn't just do that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:48:41 That's the end of it. It's feature. It's to you. No, but anyhow, so I just don't get involved in all those guys that do all that shit online. It's not, why would I get involved? I'm an old fucking guy. It's a style. It's not a style.
Starting point is 00:49:01 It is. To go after people that were nice to you throughout your life? It's not about you being nice or me being nice. Look at, I helped him. My whole goal was to make his podcast like number one. on my network and it was on its way and he fucking tanked it with Lenny Lenny and Liz
Starting point is 00:49:16 were on the show. It was a hit. Could you imagine that? It was going. It got 20,000 listeners out of the gate, but he just was like, he just wanted money and Lenny's a fucking idiot and fucking Liz, you know, they just couldn't do it and he had to go do his thing. He had
Starting point is 00:49:32 this was his thing. He has to go and he gets money off of YouTube and people give him to say they don't give him money to be nice or have some type of you know a moment of serenity where he learned a lesson they get it to go oh you fucking that fucking can i tell you that piece of shit or that hack honestly the comments to me were what was the worst one ah he said something about my son going to rehab oh boy and but and something like uh how does it feel to be a you know a guy who does drugs and his son went to rehab but you know
Starting point is 00:50:09 something about being a bad parent. That's one of the questions. That's one of the questions. It must be from Kevin. I'm kidding. But the truth is, is I almost take it as not a compliment,
Starting point is 00:50:20 but when he's going, that's what he does. And so when I was reading the comments, people in the chat were mad. They get mad at him. Yeah, but he probably gets off to that and I'm laughing. I just know how bitter and angry
Starting point is 00:50:34 and that type of bitterness and anger makes me laugh. Listen, son going to rehab is great. That means he's true. trying to turn his life around. Are you kidding to me? Rehab saved my life.

What do you want, me? to tell people when they ask and he said he was like I'm gonna make a video and I was like you don't have to do that and he said I think it'll help me hold myself accountable so that's good and so he was like that way because he would go to comedy clubs with me
Starting point is 01:02:16 and people he'd you know you can always go to a kitchen of a comedy club and find some coke somewhere and but I would now that it was me and you both relapse this weekend yeah I haven't been in the kitchen and they're like oh yeah we got it all over here somebody can find you some drugs in a comedy club yeah in Worcester for sure in Worcester in the microphone it's a podcast oh sorry I can't stand them too nothing makes you

He actually tucked it in like a bib. Here's the thing. We all were like, okay, we'll just let him keep going until he says something, and we let him bomb.
Starting point is 01:03:29 I blame us. Someone should have jumped in and helped him. Well, I was waiting for the punchline. Yeah, well, it never came. I hear you. If only I had a guitar, right, Josh? I know, dude. Let me tell you, that was mean.
Starting point is 01:03:42 It is something. That's not mean? What did he say? By the way, you're right, bro. What did he say? Now, the guitar, I'm telling you right now, the guitar is because I've always just told long stories and I've right punchlines, but none of them fit in the stories, they fit in the songs. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:58 That was a long story. Give me a guitar. Josh, you've done Jacksonville Comedy Zone, right? I have. Okay, that's the club I started, and we had a guy who was doing killer guitar comedy. It was very funny stuff. He was writing his own, and the club owner made him get rid of the guitar. And he told him, he goes, well, I can't.
Starting point is 01:04:17 It was Fred, the old owner over there. And he said, that fucking scumbag. I'm still trying to get his back in Boston. He wanted you to stay at? I did. And then he tried to take money from my CDs and DVDs. He takes, what was this? He's gone, by the way. He's gone. He's not there anymore.
Starting point is 01:04:33 And I'm not there anymore. The old owner of the comedy's owner. You guys are talking over farts. You know what? The scum bag. The funniest thing of the world, the fart. You talked over it. It was a good one, too.
Starting point is 01:04:43 It was a real good one. The Jacksonville, I almost got kicked out of, in Jacksonville one night. You know, in Florida, it's so humid. Yeah. So after the show, we're in the meet and greet, and everybody's shirts are sticky, you know, and you don't want to touch them. And on the live TV the next morning, the guy was like, I was a show last night. I go, great show.
Starting point is 01:05:02 And I wanted to make a joke about the meet and greet. And I go, great show. It was so tough in the meet and greet, though. I had to touch everybody's wet backs. And they were like, what? You were being racist? Yeah. And they were like, I was like, I had to touch all these wet backs.
Starting point is 01:05:15 And they were like, uh, uh. And I go, no, no, no, no, no. Like, there's a space in between those two words, wet backs. I was not invited back to do the next year. They were like, they want you on TV. No Spanish people in Jacksonville. It's the weirdest thing. When are the only part of Florida with none of them?
Starting point is 01:05:30 When did you start. vaping. I don't know. I just, I found it my bag, and I just started doing it because I'm hungry. What if you found a cock in your bag? I would have sucked it. I'm starving. Hopefully stuff would have to come out. I haven't eaten all day. I protein,
Starting point is 01:05:45 low carb. So let me ask you. Your kids on the row are you. He's doing this, and he's doing good. Yeah. He's doing great. That's great. And I struggled for a while because you live in Vegas. But you're friends with, yeah, that's what I'm going to ask.
Starting point is 01:06:00 Like, you do drugs. Yeah. Don't you have a responsibility to not do that when you're around him? Yeah. You know, I struggled. So I went so, when he went in, I went sober. And I was sober until he came out. And I was like, I'm not going to do drugs. And he was like, whether you do drugs or not, has nothing to do with me. And he said, I have to be able to be out around people. Okay. Yeah. And he was like so. And my drug choice weed or mushrooms is never. I was never a Coke guy And so I don't We used to smoke weed together
Starting point is 01:06:36 We don't smoke weed together anymore I just I'm like I feel kind of weird But but I am not gonna It took me a long time to kind of figure it out Because he told me and some other people were like it's not He's gonna do drugs where the you do drugs Did you do drugs growing up with him Your wife and you do drugs as they were kids growing up
