What would you do if mysterious drones appeared over your hometown? I started asking questions. What do you remember happening on that night of December 16th? It actually rotated around our house, looking as if it was peering in each window of our home. I'm Gabe Lenners from Imagine, I Heart Podcasts and Lenners Entertainment. Listen to Obscurum, Invasion of the Drones, wherever you get your favorite podcasts.

Hey, what's up y'all, this is Eric Andre. Well, I made a podcast called Bombing about absolutely tanking on stage. I tell gnarly stories and I talk to friends about their worst moments of bombing in all sorts of ways. Bombing on stage, bombing in public, bombing in life. I want to know what's the worst way they ever bombed or have they ever performed way too drunk or high or was there ever a time where they thought they were going to crush and

they stunk it up. Listen to Bombing with Eric Andre. in under 15 minutes, we take the news and boil it down to three essential stories you can keep up without feeling stressed out. Listen up first from NPR on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts. Hi listeners, it's Emily Tish-Sussman, host of the podcast She Pivots. This March, we're honoring Women's History Month with episodes from powerhouse Governor Gretchen Whitmer. I fell in love with public policy and that's kind of when I pivoted. Then later we dive into the rise of women's sports

by hearing how sports investor Carolyn Tish-Blojit is shaping the industry. Come join us and listen to She Pivots on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Wake that ass up. Early in the morning. The Breakfast Club.

Here to talk about more shit, which means great shit is happening. Still moving, still tracking, still working, still doing the same thing but bigger. When the last time you took a break, Kev? Why? Why would I take a break? Sheldon, we talk about this all the time. What do you take a break for? You need a little rest every now and then.

I don't need no rest. You can rest when you die. I enjoy doing what I do. So why am I looking to rest? I have a good time working. I don't like hate my job or my job doesn't stress me out. I enjoy the idea of work.

I enjoy the idea of doing something that I set out to do. That's my happy space. Yeah, so I'm not resting anytime soon. Well, congratulations to your Eagles. 45. Thank you. Congratulations to your Eagles. Yeah, I said congratulations.

I just said congratulations. You a Giants fan? I am a Giants fan. That's crazy. Yeah, you thank me. I mean, I don't work in the office. I didn't say nothing, I just said congratulations. You a Giants fan? I am a Giants fan. That's crazy. Yeah, you thank me. I mean, I don't work in the office. I understand what your office did. Saquon Barkley, how about that?

How about that? Just a second. Oh, they moved the helmet. It was signed by Saquon. Just a second to talk about that. How about that? It's signed by Saquon. It says, you know, Saquon.

How about that? Man, like not a lot of offices can like sit and be like, we fucked up. Like, they'd be like, there's not a lot of officers can like sit and be like we fucked up. Like there's not a lot that can actually go you know what man we really fucked up on this one man. We did. Like who's responsible? Like they got a point. That's one of the few times that they got a point on each other. Was it you Gary? Did you? Who didn't make the fucking deal? I thought it was in our best interest. The biggest gift in football man. So stupid. It is. But it was good for Saquon. He biggest gift in football, man. So stupid. Such a dumbass.

But it was good for Saquon. He wouldn't have had that season in New York. I'm happy for Saquon. He wouldn't have had that season in New York. You don't know what he would have. That's true. You don't know what he would have. I know they wouldn't want no football.

I mean, that's true, but you don't know the season that he would have. That's true, that's true. Coming back healthy, ready to play football. You know, it's not like he just got good. He's been fucking good. Healthy, 100%. He was the face of the Giants. I mean, 100%. Why do you get rid face of the Jones? I mean a hundred percent

Why do you give it a say? I just don't understand it, but thank you I think the Giants for the gift one of the best gifts ever fucking like received as a fan and say Kwan bar Talk to us about this new two-part documentary you got No one call she Congratulations to Jamie Foxx man. This is a Jamie Foxx like idea that he came to me with at Heartbeat. And you know, it was a concept about being on the call sheet and the good and bad of it, right?

He's like, you know, a lot of people experience it, but it doesn't do the same for everyone, you know? And whether it's the ego, whether it's the money, whether it's the idea of the money, whether it's the money, whether it's the idea of the money, whether it's the thought of my career is now about to be, and it doesn't become like there's so many different concepts attached to it. I thought it was a great idea, man. You know, Fox is a brilliant mind.

And I said to make it real, like we got to go out and, you know, of course, happen to all our relationships. So what started off is just the idea for men, like we were heavy on the men's side, and make it real, we gotta go out and of course tap into all our relationships. So what started off is just the idea for men, we were heavy on the men's side and then we were like, yo, it's dope as fuck if you have it to where there's a male version and then we go and we tap into a female version as well. And really just expand the conversation of success or lack thereof. And it's dope to hear all these people talk about it.

So I think people are gonna be blown away by hearing the good and the bad. Like everybody doesn't fuck with the concept of it. What, being number one on the call sheet? Everybody doesn't fuck with it, man. When did you become number one on the call sheet and what does it mean to be that? I've been number one for a while.

But when was the first time? Like I love it. I love it. Like I don't wanna make it very clear. I love it. Was Think Like A Man the first time? I love it. I love it. I don't want to make it very clear. I love it. Was Think Like A Man the first time? No. I mean, the first one was probably, of course, Paper Soldiers way back in the day.

Oh, she did. But it's been a lot. Dave will be happy to hear that. He'll be happy to hear that you- Paper Soldiers, shouts out to Dave. I think for me it's more about, you know, it's about the idea of building the project. So, you know, I'm more of the creative behind the scene now. So to have the idea and the idea come into like real life

and you're like, oh shit, we're doing this and it's happening. And then the number one on the call sheet and you're like, follow it down. That's great. it's happening. And then the number one on the call sheet and you're like, follow it down. That's great, but now honestly, I don't really give a fuck. I'm joking about the number one, but I'm more about putting other people in place to do shit and the producing or the development of projects

is what drives, like that's what drives me. Now you never left the road. Why is the road so important to you? Cause you control it, you own it. There's nothing better. And you do small venues, you do big venues. Like nothing better than And you do small venues, you do big venues. There's nothing better than stand-up comedy.

There's no job better than the job of live entertainment, live audience, your fans, your connection, your relationship. It doesn't die. Like you can, you literally, if you treat it like a plant and you forever water it, the plant is never gonna die, right? So if it can grow and you have good seasons, bad seasons, it's always gonna be there. And those fans are just gonna ride with you forever. So I'm very, I'm very adamant on staying true

to stand-up comedy. Nothing takes the place of stand-up comedy. I don't give a fuck what I'm doing, the level that I'm doing at. I will go and do comedy clubs. I will come to New York for months on the time and just do a run of pop-ups that's my muse that's my stress reliever so do you have a specific process like do you ever still go back and visit family in Philly to like get some get some like core

material no I mean you know I just I I think when I think when you're doing a lot in general, you're always in the space of creative thinking, right? Like if you're nonstop, I'm not in the house. Like I'm traveling, I'm around people. Like if you're constantly around and you're constantly seeing things, like that's where your ideas are coming from. That's where the urge to talk about more shit happens.

Whether it's young energy or old energy, that's where my appetite to go, oh fuck, that's funny. Let me go on stage, I'm gonna see what this is. Or, oh God, this is actually, this is a new fucking like, this is a new bait or possible like idea to get to the bait so I can fucking get like some dope shit. Once I get excited about it, then I'm hitting the ground running.

But it's not family generated, it's travel generated. Where am I going? What am I experiencing? Who am I around? Did you hear Damon Wayans say that he would never do stand up anymore because he was like, people are too sensitive? No, he said people are stupid. Well, yeah, he said people are stupid. Basically, you know, he says anything, people get offended too fast. It's like, it's just not worth the stress. I understand. I mean, I'm not I don't I don't see it the same way because I don't I don't I don't have that level of Give-a-fuck of I don't want to do the thing that I love to do because I'm caring so much about What everybody else is thinking about what I'm doing? Like I don't I think you meant that on you know how the way is used to be like they no limit like you talk about

Anything but now that since the the new trend is being offended and a lot of people are just you know it is what it is though I mean Dame is Dame Dame is a legend like if Dame wanted to go on stage and fuck around Dame can do what he wants when he wants you know the idea of people being upset or fucking triggered, if you're thinking about that, then you're going down a crazy spiral. I'm not doing comedy and thinking about the thought of what you think about what I'm saying. I have the things I want to talk about. I know the direction I want to go in. I'm not here to offend. I'm not here to aggravate or piss people off. I'm here to do my craft.

I think you can get away with anything if it's actually funny. If it's funny. I really believe that. If it's funny and it's coming from a genuine... Place they're trying to make you laugh. Yeah, like I'm not being malicious. Like if your intent is to be malicious behind said thing and there's no real humor attached to it, it's just an angry fucking suggestion, and that's different.

But I'm not in that space. I'm not doing shit to piss people off. When was the last time you've been angry Kev? Last time I've been angry? It's been a minute man. It's been a minute man. I don't get what are you getting like what are you angry about like what why why are you letting things drive you to the point of a level of anger that prevents you from doing something else like it takes so much energy to be angry. Or do you have something that when you even get to that point, like, is it the gym? Is it your kids? Is it the stage? Like, I don't, I don't, I know this is going to sound crazy.

There's nothing that pressing to make me angry. You can have a moment. You can be frustrated for a moment, but then I'm solution oriented. So what's the solution? That's what I mean. Yeah. Like what's the solution? Okay, if something happened and it's upset, alright well why, like why did it happen? Like anything, it's all office or business related, so like what, well why? Mm-hmm. Alright, well now that is the case, like what are we doing to basically get outside this box? Yeah. How can I help get outside the box? Like me being upset at you and your mistake doesn't change the mistake. Now by the way, if this is a mistake you always make,

all right, well, we gotta remove you. I'm sorry, but that's business. I'm not angry about the choice, but it's a professional solve. Have you apologized yet to Delaware State University? For what? Deshaun Jackson said you was sorry! Deshaun Jackson said I was sorry.

Oh, you talking about when I said... I forgot what he said what he said it's not a college it's not a real college is a bunch of niggas on some park or something oh a bunch of niggas on campus I mean first of all it is all right but it's like smart people there too I'm like, what do you mean? What are you talking about? I used to go to Delaware State all the time. I performed there several times. From Philadelphia, right up the street.

Delaware State knows I have no ill will towards them. I love you guys. But it was a funny bit. There's a lot of niggas out there. You got your animated show out, Lil Kev. Yes. Talks about your life growing up. What made you want to do that?

The animation style. You know, crazy, this has been a, this is like, this is a crazy day. I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I animated show out Lil Kev. Talks about your life growing up. What made you wanna do that? The animation style. You know crazy, this has been a,

this is like, this is a crazy development man. This is, I wanna say like seven to eight years in the making. Before we could actually like do it properly, shouts out to Scott Mills over there at BET man, for understanding like my world of want and allowing me to do it the way I wanted to do it. It's an adult animation.

And I wanted to flip the story of the conversation attached to the hood. Everybody talks about the hood from one point of view. The hood is the hood. And people are like, the hood is fucked up. It's so bad. But, you know. Yeah, and I think that there's a positive side to it.

You know, there's a role that everybody plays in the hood, especially when it comes to kids, families. Like, everybody's a part of the village. Everybody's raising everybody's child. Everybody is aware. Everybody's in the know. Everybody's trying their best to service and eat a good. And even bad shit is happening, you know,

when people find out there is an energy attached to trying to solve it and make it better. And this is a way of just flipping the conversation on the hood upside down. So it's about me, my upbringing, being in a hood, but having such a high level of love for the hood, for my family and for all the people around it. And Jess hilarious, isn't it?

Keeping her away from Breakfast Club. Come on, okay, Jess, don't listen to that. I don't. Yeah, that's ridiculous, first of all. Thank you. And when people say like, And Jess hilarious is in it keeping her away from Breakfast Club I don't yeah, that's ridiculous. First of all, thank you And when people say like I want to make something very clear when people say like kev Thank you for giving people a job people earn them job. Like i'm not giving thank you anything. I'm not out like hey Here just here's a fucking gift. Like that's just that's our team. That's people working and saying hey This is a good thing to possibly put Jess up for, and Jess will go process. I mean, you could say no, but when people are talented and earning things on their own,

it's happening the way it's supposed to be. I'm not in the space of know of everything, and I'm hand picking people and doing, that will mean that I'm fucking, I mean, the time in a day to do that, and do it and do it and do it, then that means that the people around me aren't doing what the time in a day to do that and do it and do it and do it, then that means that the people around me

aren't doing what the fuck they're supposed to do. So it's your job to properly package and put people in places to make these projects good. And it's my job to see it at the end stage of going, wow, this is a great cast, these are great personnel, great roles, I like this. I like this configuration. But justice earning it.

That's not me giving it. Thank you. And you do take the time to pour into the next generation. Drew Ski was up here and Drew Ski said that you gave him and Kaisen not a bunch of movies to watch. You told them, get your stupid, whatever your stupid ass is doing right now, watch these movies and prepare for the next level.

That's right. I like what the younger generation is doing. It's crazy I'm saying it. Like I'm really am a part of like a time of old. How old are you now? 45. Damn! Well, it doesn't look it.

I did that for Don Tito. I did that for Don Tito. You know, that older generation of like how we approach the business, how we approach the craft, right? And I think it's dope as fuck to see this new generation navigate differently. Like the comedians of today did not go and work at it the same way that we did. Like they're breaking new ground, finding ways to be the personalities first and then get to the stage after.

And the way that they're engaging with their audience and the way that the audience is responding to them, I think it's dope as fuck. So, you know, and being a fan of it, I feel like it's my job now to figure out ways to like grab this personnel when and where I can and, you know, try to push him for it. With Kai Andruski, Kai is such a monster, man.

Like, I don't think people realize how big Kai's audience is. Yes, we do. Kai's fan base is insane. Like, you're talking about somebody that's talking in front of a computer for hours on end and he holds anywhere between 300,000, 400,000 people for eight to 12 hour periods that don't move. Like when we did those streams you know you're

putting up Super Bowl like numbers. We had at one point like 900,000 people in that fucking stream watching for hours on end. So I told him I said look man I want to show you guys ways to like for hours on end. So I told him, I said, look, man, I wanna show you guys ways to like, give your audience more and ways to do more. So I came up with like, with some dope ass ideas, concepts for us to rock in together, but stay true to the space of what they're doing.

So Druski, I know he came and he was like, telling you guys about the movie. I don't wanna tell y'all what it is, but it's a big, it's a big idea that we're working now. But I was like, to do it, you guys gotta educate yourself on things in this space. So it wasn't homework, I was like, understand production, understand how movies are made,

understand the look and feel, so that when we're talking and ideating, you know what I'm talking about. Like, I don't wanna talk to you and you gotta go backwards and track what we're talking about. So the the homework quote unquote the homework was more about

Get this Concept and then like let's get to the table and let's make the shit funny But I got them really like creating the shit and developing it and not because you know, it's a chore a task It's like I'm I want you to be a part of the process so you can understand the process, and after you do this with me, go do it yourself. Go do it and figure out ways to do it with the other people that you're around. But I think they're fucking talented. I think Drew Ski's a star. I think Drew Ski's a funny fucking guy, man, naturally.

And guys, both of them. I think they're fucking natural talent. And in this, it's like putting them in a position to be what they are and be the first to come over the bridge from that space of streaming whatever. Like what Mr. Beast is doing is dope. It's game show, big game show. He's taking everything and the idea of game, prize,

he redefined it, right? Like if you really watch what he's done, he redefined the concept of game, game show. We've seen it for years on who wants to be a millionaire and all these other shows, but it was a traditional, there was a traditional win and here's your gift. He broke that model. I'm gonna give him some cash to some regular people, man.

And he did it time after time after time again, and then he built a big ass series. And hey man, fucking streaming platforms, like hey, we gotta fuck with this guy we're gonna give him X Y & Z to do it we want you to do it with us but he controls it he owns it so I'm showing them how to control how to own and do bigger things so it doesn't cap out at the stream. Drew C said you actually set him up in that stream with that

with that little kid he said he said it was you that actually set him up. This is ridiculous. That's what he said. I mean you did though, you did start it off. He said you started it. And they followed your lead. He said follow your lead. This is ridiculous.

Because you're the OG, they follow your lead. First of all, what you need to understand is where the cameras are at all times. When I said the Druski was in his ear. Yeah. I said something in his ear, okay. Nobody really knows what I said. He knows what I said.

And then he took the liberty of going and, you know, saying very harsh things, by the way. You know, things that shouldn't be said. We seen you move up right out. Like you see. I mean, I don't want to be around that. I've seen a lot of people get in fights. I've seen what is about to happen.

I go, I shouldn't be here. Right? I shouldn't be here. They about to start shooting. By the way, he's got the gun. I see it. I'm going to leave right now. So I just exited the room because I think at the time I had to go to the bathroom, he's got the gun. I see it. I'm gonna leave right now Yeah, so I just exited the room because I think I think at the time I had to go to the bathroom actually And then a lot of stuff from what I was told

What should happen for what I was told the kids start crying and stuff like that I came back wasn't even around I came back and I was like what's going on? Okay, at that time. I'm the adult in the room trying to calm shit down Right like hey, man What's happening? And I think all the cameras caught me saying that, which is good for me legally. So I was never attached. Drewski said he felt like he could make those jokes

because he's fat and y'all were teasing him all day about being fat. Oh, Drewski, first of all, calling people fat, that's aggressive. Well, you saw the big dank interview. Yeah, I just wanna, I don't know where the camera's at. I just wanna say that's it. You understand me, right?

That's the F word. The F word. The F word. The F word. The F word. Is Drewski big? Yes. Is he a little bigger?

Yeah. Right? Does he have problems breathing when he walks up steps? Yeah, of course. Of course. But, you know, that little kid, I think, was on his way to a healthy lifestyle. You gotta support that, right? The little kid, because he was talking, I think the little kid was talking about exercising

and stuff, which is good. I'm always glad to just be on the positive side of conversation. That's what I'm about. I'm a beacon of light, joy. Kevin, and sure, at the level of success that you are at being an actor, do you still have to audition for roles or absolutely not okay so what are you talking about? because Martin Lawrence said he has said that he does. Martin said he had to

he pitches he still got a pitch project. Oh pitch that yeah that makes sense if he's pitching things. I mean am I really pitching things? I think I'm pitching ideas to my team. I'm more in the business of creating the things that I think best service my want and my direction in the business. Like when you think about the dramas, you think about all the things that I've done in the series, like that's been me. So true story. I was like, I want to fucking kill somebody on camera.

I think it'd be dope and I want him found a guy that created narcos And I was like you'll be dope as fuck if we can collab and talk but we developed it and then I was like, okay This is great. Let's go and take this out. Like that's developing it and then going to sell it Fight night, you know that was me Will Packer will tell me he had to write, and I was saying, hey, to do it, this can be dope as fuck, but let's do it this way, and put the right people in it. So like the creative side of from start to finish is where I'm playing at now, but like auditioning,

I'm not really auditioning. I think people, if they have a project, they're like, oh, Kevin would be good for this, and I'm getting those calls. Hey, we want you to do. And then I got a decision of if I want to do it or not. Like, for instance, The Upside, that's still one of my favorite movies.

You and Bryan Cranston, they already saw you for that role and just called you. They said, we want to do the remake. And we see you and Bryan Cranston doing this. Are you interested? And that was genius. Absolutely. And Nicole Kidman.

I was like, absolutely. Hands down. But it's coming out and having an ask. Not to say that I wouldn't audition. You would? No, he wouldn't. I was about to say, hell. I was trying to clean it up.

I was trying to clean it up. I was trying to, because I know you all got cameras here. I just wanted to look in and make it just look like I'm willing to do. I really am. I'm not. I just wanted to make you understand. When was the last time you got booed?

And the reason I ask is because you said you do small shows. That's when I got booed? I'm not getting booed. I'm not getting booed at this point. Even if jokes aren't funny, you're getting the credibility laughs at least. So you're laughing just because it's you? You're trying things credibility laughs at least. Cause you're laughing just cause it's you. Cause you're trying things out.

At minimum, yeah. Are those good laughs though? You don't want those. When you trying things out, you don't care. You don't want a damn boo either. You don't care. Honestly, there is no care for the level of laughter when I'm trying to figure shit out.

Now, when I think I've got it all done, and I'm like, oh, this set is complete, I'm going out and I'm struggling okay then that's that's a little self-esteem bruising if that's the case but that's not that hasn't been the case ever like when you when you work the shit and you done worked on the craft and I'm like okay I got it I got it down this is my set no you're not you're not running into them problems now do you get an occasional person that you got to deal with in a crowd?

Yeah, but that stuff isn't booing, that's like atmosphere. That's heckling or somebody yelling out and looking for a moment. Every once in a while you gotta show that you still got that. And you put people in a place comedically and then you move on with the set, but booing, no.

What about social media backlash? Does everybody, for whatever reason, was highly upset when you hosted NBA All-Star Weekend? Or there was a section of the internet that was acting like they were? You know, what energy do you give that? I'm a partner to the NBA. Understand what that means.

I'm not coming on to be Kevin Hart and have funny moments to the NBA. The NBA has been a servicing aid to my career I'm not coming on to be Kevin Hart and have funny moments to the NBA. The NBA has been a servicing aid to my career for over 15 years. You go back and you'll look at how much I've been on NBA TNT and All-Star Weekend, Celebrity Weekend, all these events. It's almost host adjacent, right? The personalities that we lean on

because we're familiar, we're family, and we know how they work. That's what that is. So the All-Star, I'm not going to the All-Star game to try to create a big moment for me. I'm there because the energy of the All-Star game comes with Chuck, Ernie, Kenny, myself, Shaq. Like we've been doing this for years.

Like just talking and playing with one another, bantering on camera, that's not an easy thing to do. They make it look fucking easy. They make it look great. That's not an easy thing to do. Especially between you and Shaq. Yeah, yeah, like that's not. That seems very easy.

That's not fucking an easy thing to do. Like that chemistry, that rapport, it comes from like having a real understanding for how TV works. So you can't just throw new things in there because it gets weird. People don't understand the times, people don't understand the cuts,

how much time you gotta go, cut back to the game. They're trying to do so much new shit, they're trying to discover it. So while they're trying to figure it out, here's personalities that we can lean on so at least we don't have dead space or dull moments on camera. That's what that is.

So when you understand the technicality behind it, then you understand my involvement I don't I don't feed into the other shit. Mm-hmm. I know I'm there partnership Do you ever tell Shaq to like really back up off you? I think you kind of sexually assaulting you in a little bit. What? What is on this one time with Shaq has done some crazy shit. Okay, I was uncomfortable Hey, what was it? Real husband's when he that whole thing that's on the internet that they Was a moment when honestly be rude I couldn't do nothing about it

Before I put a little size on not to say I could do something to check but I didn't before I put a little size on, not to say that I could do something to Shaq, but I didn't, you know, it was a very frail version of me. And you know, this is when Shaq was like, when they were like just talking about Shaq being a cop, and he really was a cop, we thought it would be funny as fuck. Shaq pulled me over on Real Housewives of Hollywood,

and you know, like Shaq is like basically. Have you ever looked into the night sky and wondered who or what was flying around up there. We've seen planes, helicopters, hot air balloons, and birds, but what if there's something else, something much more ominous that appears under the cover of night, silent, unseen, watching? They may be right above your car late one night as you cruise down the road or look like mysterious lights hovering above your home. Drones. Or are they?

We used the word drone because it was comfortable to other people. One minute it was there and one minute it wasn't. Oh that is beyond creepy. Do you feel like this drone was targeting you specifically? Yes, absolutely. Listen to Obscurum, Invasion of the Drones, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or's Amartinez.

Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts They about to arrest me and any fucking you know, everybody can improv say what he did Real Thin is a great show, you should watch it. Well, it's a great show. But it's online. Yeah, but what we're not going to do is make it seem like something that it wasn't. We're doing something. So what he did was he grabbed me when I got out the car, and he just tried to get a little physical, right? It was like- Pat you down.

Yeah, but just like everybody doesn't improv the same. Yeah, it was crazy. Comedy is an art. Like you ever see comedians when they try to like improv and some of them go too far or they don't know when to stop? Right. You're like, hey man, we got it in the scene You can't bring up moms cuz you don't know who our moms are in this scene. It's like I just googled it

Yeah, well, it says hashtag pause of the week. Hey, yo, nah Shaq you straight by lady Kevin Hart You literally took that man to pound town. Did it? What you're doing is ridiculous. That's actually nuts. Nuts? No, that's nuts. That's nuts. He grabbed me, he throws me over the car. Over the car. And he starts humping me.

Humping you. So I'm like, I remember. Hold on, he turned you around, bent you over. Wow. He did do all that. But you have to look at Kevin's face and say you can tell. Let me tell you what I can tell Charlemagne. Charlemagne is a pervert. He is. Like he's face and say you can tell. Let me tell you what I can tell Charlamagne.

Charlamagne is a pervert. He is. He's a nasty man. He is. In this brief time, I just found out a lot about him. By the way, he starts describing stuff. You're a very graphic nasty man. Me?

I'm just describing what Shaq did to you. He grabbed me and he fucking like throws me over the car. He's like, you don't know what I can do. He starts humping me. I remember Ralph was directing the episode, right? I remember Ralph was directing the episode. And I remember I looked at Ralph, and I'm like, hey, did y'all, did y'all,

is it Pink Pages? Like, did something happen? And they were like, all right, nobody wanted to say shit to Shaq. They were like, all right, we got it. So let's just, let's just move on. We just fucking moved on. Did y'all talk about it after?

No, we ain't even addressed it. I was like, man, everybody just shut up. I tried to get you again all start weekend. Everybody just shut up. No, it don't do no more. Did you get triggered a little bit? I saw you, he was creeping up on you. I'm older and I'm in a much more controlling state in my life where I would say something

to Shaq, you know, don't do that. Don't fuck him. He gotta stop it, like a firm stop that. But in that moment, that was Shaq trying to be funny. That's my nigga. I have so much love. Do people know the role, this generation, do they know the pivotal role Shaq played in your career? The pivotal role? No,, this generation, do they know the pivotal role Shaq played in your career?

The pivotal role? No, I don't think people do know the pivotal role. What is the pivotal role? That sounds crazy. No, I'm being serious. We don't know. When he had the Shaq comedy All-Star Weekend. Yes, yes.

He's referring to the special that actually launched, I would say, the bigger side of success to my comedy career. No bullshit, it is Shaq's All-Star Comedy Jam that was in Phoenix. You know the crazy thing? I did it as a favor. It was a favor. Like, I was like, aw man, I can't really do shit.

I'm about to drop my special. So I don't really wanna like go and do this. They was like, no Kev, come on. Like, we need a headline there. We want you to come and it'll be quick. And it was like just a gig during All-Star Weekend. You know like we want to tape it. I was I'm gonna put like a different 15 minutes on this man, and I'm really you know, I'm not really pressed to I'm not really pressed about it like that So I'll give you all this 15 and I've saved the other shit for my special. So it's like a toss away

15 minutes set like a backlog set I was like I gave'll get all this. And the shit ended up being the biggest. So, shouts out to the big dummy himself, Shaq. I wanna go back to number one on the call sheet cause Sterling K. Brown did an interview where he said that people wanted to put him number one on the call sheets, but he was superstitious about it

because he'd been successful enough not being number one. So he was okay with being number two. What do you think of that? I don't mind that. You know, I mean, as somebody that's been there. When you're there and you've experienced whatever the conversation attached to it is, it's not the same level of important, right?

Like, it's not important. I was joking around earlier about the idea of number one on the call sheet, but it's not that important to me. I don't give a fuck. I don't care about top billing. I don't need my name to be first. I don't need my name to be the biggest

when they first put the movie or the TV show out. Like if that's more important to you, I'm like, all right, let them get it. I don't really give a fuck. And not in a dismissive way, but if that's what you need to make you feel better and to make you feel like a valuable piece to the puzzle of this project?

Absolutely, give it to them. Like I can take those back steps because you've been there. It's like the idea of stardom. It's not, it doesn't thrive or I'm not thriving in the space of being a star. You've been there. I could give a fuck. Like you can dim the light as much as you want. I don't, it doesn't matter. So- That novelty has been worn out. Yeah. It's like you don't, it doesn't, it's not driving my reason to get up and do. So I think what Sterling is referring to is saying like, look man, I don't really like that.

I've done it. It's better for me to do this. Let somebody else deal with all the headache of that. That's what he's doing. And shots out to him too, man. The show is incredible right now. So when you and The Rock do a movie, who's number one on the call sheet?

I let him get it. But DJ's an asshole. Damn. He's an asshole. You let him get it? No, I'm joking. Yeah. No, DJ, by the way, he trumps me every time.

What do you mean? It's not even a conversation. I don't even bring it up. No, you're number one on this, right? What is it? Because the box office number is like, how do they? I think he deserves to be number one when we do the project. He's a international superstar.

Not to say that I don't have international success, but I don't think that we're equal in that regard. I think that his movies have performed and done crazy business internationally. And when we do projects that we want to appeal to the world, you should be first. I'm coming in and I'm on that train with you. I'm adding value to it, but I'm not bumped by you being first.

We put an amazing cast together to help us get those audiences when we do. But I don't feel any type way about that. I think he deserves it and he should have Congratulations to man you got is announced that uh You're working with the Indiana Pacers now. I'm not working with the Pacers heartbeat entertainment Yeah, heartbeat isn't working with the Pacers. Yes heartbeat to be the official cultural Curator to provide entertainment and live experiences for fans in the Indianapolis. Yes. Yes

What is it what does the 76 say about that? We're speeding with the question. First of all, what does that look like? It's an opportunity for our company, right? Our company is a creative engine for any resource that allows us to be, right? We are a business, so our business thrives when we can implement ourselves in places to create or elevate a brand, a company, an entity, an activation whether it be live entertainment, storytelling, etc. Indiana with the Pacers and the Fever have an attraction coming I think they have an All-Star coming up but it's

more about they're like look we're looking for ways to expand and elevate what we've done. They spent a lot of money on a new facility. They have a team that's thriving, a younger team. The Fever are thriving with Star Power, et cetera. So they're like, how do we elevate? How can we better tell our story? And I'm like, that's what we do.

And me having relationships with the owner of the team and presidents of the teams or CMOs that are a part of those entities, it's like, look, that's what we do. We tell stories very well. So to market, promote, and better define that for you, that's our business. Let us show you how we can make that business a service to you.

And they gave an opportunity and I was like, dope, let our company do it. So it's not a Kevin Hart thing. Like everybody assumes that Kevin Hart is the driving factor or the source. It's the entity. The entity has to do things outside of me. Our entity to fucking thrive. Like that's a fact. So whether it's the fucking Pacers, I got business with the Falcons, I got business with the Eagles. Would you do the Giants? That's one that I don't know if I would touch because they don't know good

stuff. They may let me go. But it's how many of those can I do step and repeat? So the Pacers we'll use as an example once we do it well. And from that example, I'll go to other fucking NBA teams or the NBA in general. Like I'm looking to be a better partner for the NBA. How do we better tell stories for your brand? How do we better promote and market you? How can we amplify or activate differently? Like these are words in the business

that companies desperately wanna hear from potential partners. That's an interesting question because, Envy, what you about to say about the 76s? I was just saying, well, how did the 76s feel like that? Because you are such a 76s fan, I feel like they might look at it like, why are you over there messing with them? You here, this is home to you. Because his heart beat the company and Kevin Hart the individual. I promise you that they wouldn't even blink an eye because they understand business.

Kevin Hart is still a 76ers fan His company heartbeat is doing a service for another company. Hey Kev you think you can do this for us, too Would your company be interested in doing this? Absolutely guys. This is not anything Kevin specific. I'm still going to Sixers games. I still sit courtside I mean right now we're not we're not in the best position But I'm still a fan I'm an Eagles fan But if there's business that can be done for another NFL entity that wants to tell stories Well, we're gonna tell those stories for the entity that doesn't mean that our brand can't do that. It's a company

You know, I know that you guys were talking to Mike about you like yo, is that crazy? Like this isn't Kevin Hart. I'm not going to the Pacers. And man, it's time for me to change the narrative. No, this is what my company does. It's that simple. Will Heartbeat call, Mike Epps? To do? Absolutely.

By the way, here's an example. If All-Star Weekend is coming up there, and we're like, OK, hey, we have ideas to service a bigger like a bigger process That people can probably gravitate towards a little different from what they've done in the past Here's how we're gonna make the All-Star Weekend in Indiana When the women are playing here's how we can make it different Here's what we can bring to the table. Women round tables, a woman cold as balls, et cetera. Is there a comedy activation? Women forwarded. Does Mike want to bring and

be responsible for comedy from Indian? Absolutely. Like that's when you tap in. All you are is the servicing hub. We're the hub. Now it's our job to go and grab everybody to make this thing underneath our hub better. It's not, you're, you desperately need that. So in this case, hell yeah, Mike, come on. Mike, by the way, this is your city. What's dope about the city that we can do with you? What do you wanna do? How do we help you?

Like that's, that's partnership. But if the thought triggers you at first, what, this is my city, how? Well then you don't even, you don't even get to the next stage of opportunity. The opportunity comes from understanding the idea. Oh, oh dope, I can't, I can do something? Oh bet, and I want to do this too. Absolutely. Here, here's how we're gonna do it. Like that's, that's business.

That's how business is done. That's how you get to the place of success. So there just hasn't been an opportunity for Heartbeat to call Mike yet. No, we just did the deal. We literally just did the deal. And now that we are doing the deal, now you gotta tap in to the culture of the city. You gotta tap into popular names and faces from the city. You gotta tap into the athletes that are the stars in the city. Now you go and you say, guys, here's what we're thinking of. Here's how we make this special.

But here's how we do it with you. Is this a collaborative thing that makes sense for you? Dope, okay, if so, great. If not, well, what does? Cool, okay, we like that. All right, let's build, let's expand. I told Mike that when he was here. I said, no, I don't care if he's gonna call you

to do something. Absolutely. I mean, me and Mike's relationship now is He said y'all good. We're 10 times better. It took a long time to get to where we are now. But I'm happy at the road of like dumb shit because it got us to a place of real grown man shit. And you know, it's not, we're not doing the dumb

like tweets and shit no more. Like Mike, call me. I'm calling you and we talk. So you know, when I did, Mike was the first one. We got on the phone, we had a conversation and me and Mike are very much on the same page. And I think, you know, a lot of the disconnect was from assumption.

And that's what, that's the realization that came about. But I have no ill will, no beef towards anybody, damn sure not Mike. And right now, the priority between me and Mike are figuring out the thing that we're gonna do together. And I told Mike, it's a real thing. We haven't done it because of this disconnect in our relationship.

We've never been on screen together. We did Real Husbands together in the beginning. Mike did an episode. And that's the only time where we've ever jousted on camera. And I was like, at this point in our career, like we're not fucking nobody but ourselves. So, you know, how do we make it work?

And he's like, yeah, Kev, like how do we make it work? And it's a mutual understanding and I think now having that as a priority his fans will be happy my fans I think will be happy and I think it'd be dope for the culture when we do it yeah where is that version of Harlem Nights for this era it's it's hard it's hard to happen because the idea of it being just one is what people can't let go of. What you mean?

Like there doesn't have to be just one star. But Harlem Nights wasn't just one star. It was so many. That's why it worked. That's why it worked. Eddie didn't give a fuck about Richard, right? Like the two biggest fucking comedians, you know, minus the bullshit, the only person that was missing

that should have been in that, you know, Cosby in some degree, right? A showing of him, but they have Red Fox. Robin fucking Harris, like if you go on, you look at the names, you know, fucking De La Rees, like you look at the names and the people in Harlem Nights, you looked at a fucking conglomerate cast of hard-hitting comics of color.

We don't have that to date. The attempts to do it, shouts out to Chris Rock, top five, putting comics in, whether you are a fan of the movie or not. The attempt was, I wanna see comics of color share the screen together and I wanna get down. Tracy, Leslie, I wanna get down. Let's go back and forth, let's do some shit.

Death at a funeral. Chris attempted to put comics together. There's not a lot of examples. I would say life to a certain extent. Life is dope but you don't you had Eddie and you had Martin, Bernie, Guy Tory. We didn't have like a woman figure in life but I think like you've seen the attempt but there is no like there is no initiative where But there is no like there is no initiative where it's like, okay look

We're all gonna fucking share the same level of pay. We're all gonna play on the back and this is how I would approach it Everybody's gonna win on the back end. Okay, let's remove money from the idea This isn't about who's getting the money or who's doing what it's about the project So we're gonna do our best in this project to put people in a position to win. Winning means memorable moments, laughs, funny, et cetera. But to do it right, everybody's not gonna be on the same page. Like you gotta have an understanding of who has to carry the weight here

for the people here to fucking get in and get down. When you can have that conversation and people are okay with it, all right, it's great. But that conversation can never be had because people are bumped out the gate. I ain't working with him. I ain't working with her. I ain't doing, fuck that. They got me, like I ain't the funniest nigga. I'm a, like you, you can't even get to the fucking second page. And even when it comes to like the Yunga comics, man, I, it's been a few of, like DC Young Fly has countless scripts that he has and he's trying to get all of us like in this generation, but he goes

and what's she gonna be getting and who gonna be the main character? Oh, I ain't working with her. Or how, you know what I mean? So it's- The problem with the younger generation of comics, man, I made money so fast. Good money.

Like not like, not little money. They made money so fast. So the idea of doing that for that, fuck that. I'm over here getting, it's like the idea. I just barely come here now. I mean, Jess, Jess made money. Still making money, right? Like, Jess understands that rolled money.

That rolled money is a different type of money. These comics or new comics, and Foolish and Turncom are making real money. So until you get to a point where you understand, the money isn't going to drive your next stage of success. If your next stage of success or want for success is attached to IP projects or whatever, you cannot do it by yourself. You need the helping aid of other talent.

I don't give a fuck who you are. I'm saying this as a pound for pound conglomerate in the business. Respectfully and humbly, a conglomerate. I stack the deck. I'm not looking to fucking be on screen and be the only person I stack the fucking deck When and where I can by the way, and I'm very I'm very thankful To the other names that are willing to come and work with me and do things with me. I Was excited Samuel L Jackson is doing thank you. God, Sam, Don Cheadle. Oh, thank you. Taraji. Oh, thank you. Terrence. Thank you.

Like I'm thankful. You cannot be the only one into that younger generation. My message to so many funny like I can go down the list. DC Young Fly, who you just mentioned, Country Wayne, does he banks fucking Trusky, Casanova, Jess? You got pretty V. You got B. Simone. You got all of these fucking Carlos. Ryan Davis, right? 85 soft, all those guys. You got all these fucking great new emerging pieces of talent.

I'm going to tell you right now, talent caps out where it is when what you do is all you think you should do. In other words, like if I'm just doing stand-up comedy and then doing stand-up comedy, I do the theaters and arenas. Okay I can't do that every year and that's it. Mm-hmm. It will flatline It will die down at some point maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but at some point it will digress So if you don't offload and you don't figure out I'm tapping into this and I'm tacking into this I'm tapping into that This thing is one source of energy that you

have it'll get a little dim that light ain't gonna fucking flicker the same so if they don't tap into each other and figure out the way to make each other a valuable resource and asset it will tap out we're assets to one another like say what you want me and the rock are assets to one another, man. DJ and I, we'll get on the phone, we talking now? Hey man, it's time for us to do something. We gotta figure out the next thing. What you thinking?

I don't know, is it Jumanji 3 is another problem? What you thinking? I don't know, what you thinking? Let's talk, let's figure it out. Hey man, you know who I wanna work with, who I haven't worked with? Man, man, Idris, I gotta get down with Idris. I've yet to do something, I'm tapping into other energy I don't want to be the only source of energy

That's the only way that you continue to move forward writers producers. I want to work with you Man, you're doing amazing things You're an amazing writer. How do I work with you? Kai? You're doing amazing shit in this streaming space, man I got some shit to show you I'm gonna work with you like you you gotta tap in streaming space, man, I got some shit to show you. I'm gonna work with you. Like you gotta tap in. That's what people are afraid to do. And they're afraid to do it, especially in our culture,

because we feel like there can only be one. That's right. That's some good ass advice too though, because that is the toughest thing, trying to convince this generation that there is another level. And what you're doing does have an expiration date if you don't diversify your portfolio.

1000%, it's building correctly. And by the way, don't have to do it all in one day, man. You know, I'm almost 30 years strong in this fucking business. You don't have to do it all in one day. The discovery is exciting when you start to figure it out and you start to see the things that you're changing or things that you're driving towards work. That's the exciting part and the exciting part is we like oh shit I actually can't do the shit that I'm thinking about. Like oh

fuck damn I started off doing these videos and now the videos have turned into a business but now the business has turned into a touring job now my radio job fucking offsets promotes the fucking touring by the way my businesses are connecting. The dots are connecting Say what you want you can hate me or you can love me. I connect dots. I connect dots very well Every piece of this machine somehow Connects in some way in some shape in some form so at the end of the day if this piece dies Well, you can't kill this one if this one dies and this one dies

Well, I got this one if these three die what they don't know I got these The dots are important man. And that younger mindset in this business today is a cash driven mind The money will come I'm telling you the money will come the ideas don't the relationships and the partnerships don't That's the difference Kevin gotta go to guys. I mean I don't have a motherfucking heart man I do got one last question. Do you have a sign like, you know, cuz people interview all you all the time, right? And it got to get to a point where you'd be like, I'm tired. I gotta go

Do you have a fucking? No, no, no, no, no. You scratch your head twice or you pick your nose? I just be like, all right guys, that's it. It's time to wrap it up, man. We've been here, I think we did.
