I'm going to tell him in the video.
You look, I'm going to quit.
I'm really...
Get the fuck up, cuck, sucker.
I didn't say it was a good.
You think the Jews fucking quit when they fought the fucking Russians that time?
I thought, what were the three fucking years?
You think they walked around with?
Then 900 Jews fought against 1500 Russians or something?
Romans, yeah.
Romans and they fucking held it for how long?
For a while.
So what do you think?
You think that they quit?
We're out of carrots.
Fuck no.
I don't think it was out of carrots.
I don't know.
I mean, it was a rough name where I'm feeling good.
A lot of people don't know I know about that Jewish history.
Yeah, it's Masada.
That's right.
It's great.
You fucking cock suckers.
So next time you're Jewish and you want to put on faggy sandals to go hang out with your friends at a coffee shop,

Oh, that's nice. Thank you, guys.
Quit your job and come out and put a suit on.
I told you, Lee's going to put a suit on with a yarmic and dollar bills on.
Yeah, I can't wait to do that.
You've been smoking, Lee.
What are you sitting there?
Come on over.
Get some fucking weed.
When did you smoke?
When did you smoke in?
No, you didn't, cocksucker.
Roll in talking about smoking.
I smoke and I'm fucking half a joint, and now you're young at me again.
Cog sucker.
Let me tell you what happened.
Sacramento was a lot of fun, and I always,
I've been having a great time
doing this
lately, excuse me
I gotta be honest with you guys
for years I would go out
and I'd have a miserable time
there was a job
it stopped being a job
it's a fucking adventure now
and I'm having a good time
What changed
I love it
Yeah
I love it again
You gotta really love what you do
I think that happens with everything
Like people
I mean I work in TV
And people think it's amazing
And it ain't looking back
If I had seen it three years ago
I'd be like
Oh shit that's amazing
but everything I think turns into a job at some point.
Well, you don't want it to turn into a job.
Exactly, yeah.
That's what the thing is.
You never want what you love to turn into a job,
and turn into a job, even going on the set.
Anything I was doing turned into a job,
now I'm doing it because you guys called me out.
That's what I feel like.
These people on Twitter have called me out with the podcast.
So now I got to keep on my toes.
I got to write every day.
You know, on Mondays, I make my delivery to Omar for the book,
you know, whether it's a paragraph or a fucking chapter
when I get out of here, I'm going to go home and clear up the paragraph
and send it to them. And it's just
amazing. You can stand up and meet in these people
and smoking dope for you, but Sacramento
is definitely off the chain. So many fucking
people went, it's just amazing.
Anthony Johnson, the black dude. I mean, I just saw
you know, and it's like a family.
We're building a little family all over the fucking country.
And it really is a lot of fun.
And I'm really working on my passport. I can't really wait to go to
England, the UK, and
Ireland and fucking the flying Jew. We're going to
taking this fucking part of Israel.
Oh shit.
Fuck, yeah.
Blow up the cliff and we'll shoot a little special down at that cave,
the religious cave down there.
Jesus.
Put a $100 dollar bill and do 10 minutes.
You follow me?
That's my dream to shoot a fucking 10 minute special, my little cave.
Oh, God.
People would have heart attacks in Israel if they saw you.
No, they wouldn't.
They love all that.
No, they love it.
But I was saying, like, just...
They love it.
They fucking love it.
What's going on?
Where's I want to be around?
It's Monday morning.
I play some fucking music.
Got to respect for you motherfuckers.
As usual, this podcast is brought to you by Onit.
Go to Onit.com.
Get your fucking life started today.
That's what I love about Mondays.
You can start all over again.
So what?
You ate potato chips on Sunday.
Monday is another fucking day.
It's another fucking day.
Uh-oh.
A little Tony Benefee.
Lee Syatt, Monday morning here.
It's a beautiful fucking day.
Register for classes.
Oh shit.
Listen to that voice.
Two.
Pick up the pieces.
Are you fucking kidding?
If I had a head of him, I'd shoot it.
Then I'd burn you with this e-cigarette right in the fucking eyeball.
You're going to make it happen today.
You're going to go out there, you're going to get in your car.
You're going to fucking be, you know, the best you can be.
Don't sit around.
You're going to have to smile at people and be a fake.
I ready to cut off the Asian in the car and be yourself.
You know what I'm saying?
Cut the fucking Asians off before they cut you off.
You know, I love you, cock suckers.
I love you kung fuxuckers out there.
What's up, Lee?
Look at you.
Smiling.
You're back.
That's why I put on fucking
Steven Town on Eversmith.
Because you're back, Lee.
You got to smile when you were a young kid again.
Now we're going to fucking fill up the top.
We're going to get your little Paul McCartney hair dude.
You'll look like the president's wife with some bangs.
And it's all over.
You're going to be back-sling him dick like a savage.
Got to talk about something off the bat.
I saw something like after Sacramento Thursday night.
I do a show, you know, and it's always when you have to do radio next day.
Okay.
I told you.
I get up at 4.45 because I don't have to get up.
Yeah.
Do you understand me?
I don't come to do the podcast.
We don't have a boss.
It's when I have something to do that I can't fall asleep.
Oh, yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
So I know that you people go through that.
When you have to be somewhere, I can't fall asleep.
Do you get nervous?
Something happens to me.
So when I don't have to be somewhere, I can go to bed at fucking nine and get up at four, like nothing.
Yeah.
But if I got to get up at six, I'll sleep, you know what I'm saying?
Like very, today I fucking couldn't wake up.
I was wiped out.
I ate a hash cookie.
I ate a hash lollipop when I was in Sacramento.
Some guy showed up with a fucking bag of these.
They were amazing.
Munchies, edibles.
If you see them, fucking get them.
They're made with bubble hash.
And you could feel it because bubble hash stays with you.
It's like taking like a little pain pill for your body.
Like if you had sores, I've been doing that epileptical machine.
I fucking love it, Lee.
I fucking love it.
It beats the fuck out of you up.
Like, you get sore.
I had never really done it before and I do it like in 20 million increments.
Because you're moving your whole body.
Yeah, everything hurts.
But I took the hash bubble fucking lollipop.
But I ate one last night when I was answering back to email.
And I got fucked up when I passed out.
This morning it was just I had to drink two cups of coffee
and had to stay in the show next to 10 minutes.
That's why I was running late.
But I want to talk about something that.
Thursday I went back to the room, DiAgostina.
I went to Walmart and I got waters and shit like that.
I went back to my room and I was going through stuff.
and I put something on that I never watch ESPN.
I'm not a big ESPN guy.
You know, it's okay.
It's not like I was there in the beginning when I used to watch it now.
And they were shown a movie called, it was 30-30, which they're all fucking classic.
Oh, yeah.
But this one was called Survive in Advance.
Is that what you called me about last night?
Yeah, it was the Jim Valvano story.
You never heard the speech or nothing?
You've never seen any of that shit, Lee?
In recent years, since I've come to L.A., they, when he passed away, they had a big,
like the Jimmy V. Cancer thing.
Right, right.
So I've heard of him, but I don't really know the story.
Okay.
In 83, I'm a street guy straight up.
I'm out of high school.
I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.
I'm working at Boulevard Hardware and Fairview.
I get pinched in my first check.
I stole some checks, and I gave him to a buddy.
He got caught with him and ratted me out.
And they came and arrested me, and I lost my job.
But when I was working there one day, this is the fucking weirdest thing.
I was going to go see Pat Benetton.
Pat Benettontar was on tour, supporting the one fucking album after promises in the dark and all that shit.
And I went to the metal hands in the fucking snow to get these tickets.
And as I walk in, I hear this commotion, and it's all these black dudes and a white dude that's North Carolina State.
They were playing somewhere in that area for some Christmas tournament.
And I was walking in to get tickets.
And I just happened to see them and they just came out of practice.
And something, they stuck out in my fucking head.
they stuck out in my head
something about them
I didn't know what it was
At that time my life
I was doing a lot of fucking gambling
I was doing a lot of drugs
But I was gambling to make a living
Which is never fucking good
You're gonna lose
Oh yeah
Like I actually thought in my head
That I was smart and everybody else
And I was gonna bet
You know 3, 400 a week
And fucking win
So every week I was minus 200
And I had to do some criminal activity
That's where all those stories go back
When I go to Boulevard East
And mug the fucking perverts
And we were just doing crazy shit
So it just so happened that the Redskins, I think, won the Super Bowl that year.
Okay.
In January, they beat the Miami Dolphins to kill the bees.
I think that's the whole thing.
Don't quote me on this.
And they paid me that day.
I won $800.
And I went into the city, and I went to 174th Street.
They used to have a Thai chocolate, Thai wheat thing there, this little old man.
And I would go in and buy chocolate Thai wheat.
Okay.
I had a bunch of money.
I usually bought 20s and 10.
This time I had 8.
$800. That was big for me.
So I went in and bought a quarter-round.
It was freezing. It was January 21st.
The Super Bowl was usually January 20th in those days.
January 28th. It was fucking freezing in New York.
I asked, oh, God, do you mind if I roll a joint in here?
Because it's fucking cold.
My plan was to go outside, smoke the fucking joint,
walk down to like 163rd over the Broadway
and take the train downtown and take the bus over back to the North Bergen.
Okay.
To report authority.
So I go in there, I roll the fucking.
The joint of weeds tremendous.
It's chocolate tie weed.
They don't even make that shit no more.
They have it down like in Miami.
It's called Lamb's Bread from Jamaica.
And I fucking go outside and I roll this fucking bone and it's windy out.
So I put the joint in the corner.
You know, you put something in the corner and spark it.
And I feel a gun to my head and it's a fucking mailman dressed up undercover.
And he goes, get them on the floor.
And he puts handcuffs on me.
Within minutes, they pull up with these cars and they roll me over.
And they go in my pocket.
I got fucking $700 in my pocket.
They get the weed out there.
asked me my name. In those days, I didn't carry a fucking ID.
There was no ID. The ID isn't me. You want my name?
Fucking guess it, cuck, sucker! Like Jeopardy!
So, uh, they threw me and fucking, uh, the thing.
They asked me for my name. I told him to chute.
They did like an instant fingerprint in those days. This is 19, fucking 83, and they had that
shit. I had to wait like an hour for the results.
They just held me in like a paddy wagon. And they said, you didn't lie.
They took some of the weed and threw it on the floor and gave me a ticket.
And they got me for possession and something else.
It was just a ticket in New York.
It was 1983.
And it was 83 because they put me on six months probation.
I fucking, I had to go to Mike Court.
Okay.
So from January, which after football season, to March, it's basketball.
It's college basketball, April.
Yeah.
It's college basketball all the way.
So I didn't know the whole story.
These guys were winning.
While I'm doing all my criminal activity, North Carolina is fucking winning, winning, winning, winning,
and finally going to play Houston, Houston, five slam a jammer with Clyde,
Jackson and Akeem, the Olajuwon.
These motherfuckers were nuts.
This was like watching a college, a pro basketball team.
Everybody slammed dunk.
They had the best center in the fucking game at the time.
Best Senate in the fucking game.
Who?
His name was Akeem, Elijah.
He was like number five, and he was in college.
It was Moses, you know, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
And this guy was up there with the best centers,
and he was in fucking college.
And they're playing North Carolina State,
this fucking team that's got nothing.
They're a bunch of short guys,
Thirl Bailey.
and they fucking North Carolina
Houston's given nine and a half
That's how big of a point spread
Nobody bet
The line started at 8
They went to 9 a half
Nobody bet North Carolina State
Nobody, you understand me
It was that much
Like you didn't see it in your future
It was not gonna be
In those days
There wasn't sports center and shit like at bars
So you had to call sports phone
Cost you 35 fucking cents
So you had to walk around with change in your pocket
Every time you seen a pay phone
And it would update it every 15 fucking
a minute. So sometimes if you call back, you got the same
goddamn scores. A lot of people don't know
about this shit. This is waiting for the fucking internet.
This is how old I go. You got to call up
and they slow down tonight's results
in the third quarter to Nixon
Boston Celtics, 68, 64.
You would die. You would wait on the fucking phone.
And I called in the first score
I get at halftime. They're beating them
outright. Houston or North Carolina?
North Carolina is beating Houston outright.
Getting eight points. Beating them out right.
Nine and a half points is beating them.
Like Baye is something like that. Anyway, I get
back to Jersey, I run down and says, I bet
fucking Houston. This
is when I was out there hustling, the gangbanging
whatever the fuck you want to call it,
selling Coke and robbing people.
I bet Houston giving nine points, and they
fucking lost North Carolina.
North Carolina was this dream team.
Just come from behind.
The best player they had
got hurt. So Thursday night after the
fucking show, I go back to my hotel room,
I'm smoking a few numbers,
I got a diet fucking Coke,
I'm sitting there eating fucking strawberries. I bought
And this thing is on
And it's called
Advance and what would I tell you it was called?
I'll have to look at it.
Succeed in advance or something like that.
Okay.
And basically it was about Jim Valvano.
He opens up with
that when he first took over the team
he would do a practice once a week
where he would cut down the nets
practice winning the championship.
He would cut down the nets.
Oh shit.
So these guys like after a while
at first it seemed redundant
but after a while
we started to have fun doing it.
And we started to believe.
Yeah.
And all Valvedo did with these guys was what we do here at the church
or what's happening now is tell you, bro,
that all you need to do is believe.
That's it.
If you look at yourself, close your eyes and go, you know what?
I'm going to go in there and start selling cocks on the mail.
Whatever.
I'm going to go on the fucking line and make YouTube videos of me yelling on a screen
with a cock in my hands.
I'm going to sell fucking fake cocks in the mail.
Whatever the fuck you decide to do.
You have to believe it first.
You have to believe it's going to fucking happen.
And that's what he instilled on him.
And he's got a speech on ESPN that's a famous speech today.
I never, when he did the speech in whatever year,
I could lie to you and tell you I watched it.
It was emotional.
I never saw it.
I was subscribed to Reader's Digest in 94 because of the jokes they had in there.
Remember the little jokes that you don't read his digest is for old people?
I've read it.
But I like that because you go to old people's house and it's interesting.
So I would subscribe to Reader's Digest and send my stupid jokes.
and I never told nobody else.
I'm telling you people on the podcast for the first time.
And my jokes never made it,
but they always have interesting stories in Readers Digest,
and I read this story.
One of the things, at one time in my life,
and I've told you guys this,
I was prepared to kill my ex-wife and the boyfriend
because of what they did to me with the daughter.
Yeah.
And I remember a quote that he had said in that in that speech
that always stuck with me.
This is why I was prepared to go to prison as a man.
He goes that no matter what they do to you,
they can't take away.
Cancer can't take away your soul, your heart.
art or your brain, that that's what lives on forever.
Yeah, I have it. Do you want me to play? It's like a 10-minute thing. Do you want to not do it?
Yeah, fucking play it. We got some calls. We got just, we won't play the whole thing, just a
couple minutes of it. It's brilliant. It's a brilliant fucking speech.
So someone has to help him walk up the stage right now because he's so depleted?
Bro, he blows it the fuck up. He blows it up.
People have watched it. We'll just listen to a few words, whatever he's got.
to say but I guess I didn't watch the speech live I want the lowest I've ever seen
Dick Vidal since the owner of the Detroit Pistons called him in and told him he
should go into broadcasting I can't tell you what an honor it is to even be
mentioned the same breath with an author Ash this is something I certainly will
treasure forever but as as was sent on the tape I and I also also
I don't have one of those things going to cue cards.
So I'm going to speak longer than anybody else has spoken tonight.
That's the way it goes.
Should I skip forward a few minutes?
Time is very precious to me.
I don't know how much I have left, and I have some things that I would like to say.
Hopefully, at the end, I'll have something that will be important to other people, too.
But I can't help it.
Now I'm fighting cancer, everybody knows that.
And people ask me all the time about how you go through your life and how is your day.
And nothing has changed for me, as Dick said.
I'm a very emotional, passionate man.
I can't help it.
That's being the son of Rocco and Angelina Valvano.
That you comes with the territory.
Right?
We hug, we kiss, we love.
And when people say to me, how do you get through life or each day is the same thing?
To me, there are three things we all should do every day.
We do this every day of our life.
You're going to have what a wonderful number one is laugh you should laugh every day
Number two is think you should spend some time in thought
That's what I'm going to smoke dope is you should have your emotions moved to tears
Think about it if you laugh you think and you cry I've never heard this
That's a full day that's a heck of a day you go seven days a week there you go motherfuckers that's it special
And so we'll laugh together we think together and we fucking
that's it.
I can't tell you that you have to
listen to this to believe it. He quotes
Ralph Waldo Emerson.
He says that nothing happens without
enthusiasm. That's why
I get up in the mornings and I'm fucking excited
and listen man, anybody
that's rich could get up and have a great
fucking face on. It's the motherfuckers
like us that have to get up, you know,
and fight it out. Those are the
motherfuckers that are really happy. Anybody can be
happy with half a mill in the fucking bank
20s. It's guys like us that get

But I just read it a couple days ago
That Rhonda Rousey's going to be
The Ultimate Fighter Coach
Right
And when I ask this question
She's amazing
This is not that she's not amazing
But
She's had one fight
She was a champ before that
And now she's already a coach
Is it going too fast
What are you going to do
Like it seems like
With all sports
People have like one good
One good game or something
And now they're like
The world champions
And they're amazing
And I don't know
It just seems like it's like
Jesus Christ
She just came out
You gotta do what you got to do
We're impressed with shit
Right off the bat
In this country now
somebody does one fucking thing
and we're jumping up and fucking down
that's why I love Justin Timberley
because that motherfucker do it all
I didn't know you liked him
I like it's not like a hang out when I'm gonna post
on my fucking wall you know what I'm just
it's funny yesterday I flew back from Sacramento
there was these two chicks on there
and you can see they were fucking single
they were little on the chubby side
I'm not saying the chubby chicks are single
I'm just saying these two morons
and listening to the conversation on the train
to the shuttle to the plane
and then behind them, you could see why they were fucking single.
But they sat down.
They both had to be 40.
And the one girl goes,
oh, if you want to have Justin Bieber and something else I'm listening to it,
and it was like two fucking kids.
I'm like, the one of these fucking chicks are single.
They still think they're in fucking high school.
Yeah.
Get it together.
Wash that pussy.
Shave it.
Get out there.
The one put flip flops on and have feet bigger than mine.
Put boots on.
If your feet are bigger than a seven,
put boots on ladies.
Don't fucking put those planks and fucking flip flops
and show people that, you know,
we could float on those fucking things.
If the world gets taken all by water,
unbelievable, these fucking women
trying to get a boyfriend with flip-lops on the toes
all hard and shit.
Krusty, have a chick rubbed that big dry toe on your leg,
the drynesses when it gets me is the cold feet
that freaks me out at night.
It doesn't, I mean, it's like...
Cold feet, is that what you're worrying about?
I'm not worried about it, but...
I don't care of the feet a fucking ice cool,
as long as that monkey's warm, that's all that matters.
You understand? You like that warm monkey?
Of course I do.
A little hot fog on it.
You put hot pudge on a chick's fucking monkey?
No.
Never, that's the problem.
But you got a fucking hot fudge Sunday.
I'm at McDonald's.
I don't eat hot fudged.
Don't fucking lie to me.
I've seen those hot fudson.
I'll eat the cheeseburgers, but not the Sunday.
You're not going to McDonald's ever again.
I know.
You're not going anywhere.
I know.
You're thinking about it.
It's five weeks tomorrow.
And you're going to go getting 15 of hot the cheeseburgers tomorrow.
You know, I love you to death.
We all care for you at the church what's happening now.
And I know I can see it in your eyes when you make the video.
You're like, I can't wait to get a double whopper.
I never said that.
You didn't say it.
I could see it in your fucking eyeballs.
It don't take a swami to fucking tell you what you're thinking about.
You know what I'm thinking.
What's the first thing you're going to eat?
The first thing I'm going to get is a barbecue chicken salad at California Pizza Kitchen.
Oh, Jesus fucking Christ.
What?
That's what you're giving up your sobriety for?
It's a salad.
California, a barbecue chicken salad from fucking salad.
That's the worst food.
in North America.
What's all with that?
Who owns that shit?
It's a division of McDonald's.
It's like that other fucking Mexican place
to all these fucking wastes.
Chipotle.
Yeah, jumping up and down.
That's McDonald's beef.
I have to get a salad.
That's somebody's cat.
That's somebody's fucking cat.
No salad.
You know what the salad is?
What?
A salad.
Not a barbecue chicken salad.
I can't put a little chicken on?
No, not a barbecue chicken from whatever.
They put sugar in their shit.
Did you see the other day
that there was an article of a McDonald's salad?
Has his money calories or his money.
Did you see that?
Oh, yeah, yeah, with the dressing.
Don't eat the salad.
That's not a salad, though.
There's no barbecue.
Nobody fucking ever had a barbecue.
It's like barbecue chicken pizza.
Who fucking invented that?
Oh, I don't want to eat that.
Some white dude from fucking Cova City.
I ain't doing that shit.
I ain't going for it.
That's what you're giving up.
Listen, if you're going to cheat on your wife,
you're going to cheat on a with a chick who's 21 and's got that butterskin.
Her pussy smells like fucking flowers and their assholes like fucking fireworks.
Like firecrackers.
and that asshole smells like gunpowder.
You follow me?
You're going to go for the best.
So, again, what's the first thing you're going to eat, Lee?
Well, I have to start off with a super salad.
So I was going to start off like a small...
How about you go to Big Tonys, right down the corner on Cold Water and Riverside, right there by Rouse?
Yeah.
And you get the chicken breast nice on the grill, and they give you a nice spinach salad with a lemon vinaigrette.
You follow me with nice, fresh tomatoes?
You put some salt and pepper on those fucking tomatoes?
Yeah.
You follow me? $8.
You want to give that up for California Pizza Kitchen.
It's a salad.
It's not a salad.
It's a sweet salad with sugar.
This is what I'm saying.
This is what they're going to tell you at Weight Watchers.
When you look at that book and see how many points, so that's not a salad.
This is what we're discussing.
This is what we're saying.
Look at you.
You're like, what I make you chicken.
What's in it?
I'll tell you in a second.
I've got a call coming in.
Oh, shit.
Who's this on the phone?
What do you say?
Oh, shit.
It's my main man
The fucking flying Puerto Rican
Mick Benacourt
What's happening, beautiful?
Don't deny my Irishness
I hear you, I hear you, I hear you, I hear
It's around St. Patty's time
It's funny, Mick, the other day
Well, I told you about a year ago
I was in a hotel room
And I watched the Law & Order
SVU
That you had written,
A line directed,
Or whatever the fuck you had done
In your name
It was one of the best things
I've ever seen on television
About them
The Army chick that left the thing
And one of the soldiers
came back
And they thought it was ten.
that killed the chick.
It was fucking amazing.
And the other day I'm on a line,
and I see that, what's her name?
Who does the podcast with Felicia?
Danny Stewart wrote that she was home sick.
Did you see that tweet that she wrote?
I was homesick, and I was watching Law & Order,
fucking Mick Benincourt's a bad motherfucker.
So I said, we've got to get Mick back on the podcast.
How are you doing, but I know you don't have that much time today.
How are you?
I'm good, man.
I'm happy to be up this early and happy to pop on the podcast.
Yes and say hello.
Are you an early guy?
You have children, so you got to be up early, correct?
Yeah, you know what?
They're actually going out of town.
They're going to Chicago for a week for Easter,
so I'm going to miss the bandinos for a little bit,
but a week to get the house back in order.
My wife is leaving Thursday also.
I have free reign for a fucking week, too.
Let's go get some steaks.
Absolutely.
See, we're going to go get some steaks.
See what I'm saying?
Nobody said a salad from California fucking pizza kitchen.
The fuck is wrong with these kids?
That's not a salad.
That's the only.
place that had Thai fucking barbecue pizza.
Who the fuck put together, Thai,
there's not a Guinea and fucking Sicily
that's going. Who fucking invented
Thai barbecue pizza with pineapple
and ranch dressing on it? And these
white kids are jumping up and fucking down,
you cock suckers. Get it together.
I think that pizza has actually killed more
Italians. Oh, my God.
Italians just throw themselves off
the fucking cliffs of the Amalfi Coast.
Let me tell you some. I've got...
You know when you fly southwest of the L.A.X
You go downstairs, they have the Jamba
juice or one of those fucking juices
and that's what they got, California pizza.
And every time I would go there
and I meet Joe, he'd always be eating that shit.
And one day I tasted that pizza and I couldn't believe
how fucking bad it was
and how all these fucking waspy
motherfuckers are standing around
talking about their calendars
and what they're going to do on their iPhones.
I felt like machine gunning all these motherfuckers
because that's the best thing you can do with these dumb
fucks, California Pizza Kitchen
your nasty motherfuckers.
I wouldn't want to smell your asshole the next day.
Anyway, brother, did you see that thing with Jim Valvano on ESPN?
Did you happen to watch that?
Oh, yeah, the 30 for 30.
Yeah, the North Carolina State.
Yeah, when he was talking about that, he'd make him cut the nets down once a week to practice.
And they asked Der Bailey, you know, what did you think about?
He goes, it was kind of redundant, but after a while, we enjoyed it,
and you start believing that you could, this is going to happen, you know.
And we were talking about belief, and that story.
you told me at coffee one day
about how you got into writing.
I left there and my head blew up, but I knew
it was possible because we always
look at things and we go, we can never reach for that
and all of a sudden the situation happens
and there we are. Tell the story, Nick, for me,
so these motherfuckers know.
Well, I got the very powerful
30 by 32 where he said his father's
policing him where he said, my bag's a pack,
my bags are packed, and he just, you know,
then he believed that he could actually
win the NCAA championship. I thought it was
amazing.
But I agree with you.
You know, you get the self-doubt in you.
I don't know if it's a byproduct of real city Catholicism or what, you know, you and I both came from kind of fucked-up houses.
And you get the self-doubt, and I was out here.
I was broke.
I had no money.
I knew I had something.
I knew I could do something for you a writer.
I've been writing since second grade.
My own shit, you know, notebooks.
I go to the Walgreens and I buy a spy.
Remember the spiral notebooks with the metal shit running down the side?
Fuck, yeah.
Yeah, so I'd write in that, but I didn't know a writer.
You know, I didn't know what it meant to be a writer or how you would even go about it.
And so being out here, you see guys write for TV, you realize that scripts are written.
And my agent at the time said, you have to write a spec script.
And I said, well, what is that?
She said, it's an episode of television.
So you pick an episode of TV, like Law & Order or whatever you want.
If it's a comedy, write a comedy, if it's a drama, right a drama.
So, well, what's an edgy drama?
goes the shield. So I said, okay, I'll write one of those. And at the time, I had never seen an
episode of the Shield. So I went over to Frye and I bought the DVD set of the last
season of the Shield and I watched the last three episodes. And I thought, how am I going to, I
couldn't get a hold of the actual Shield script. But then in the very end of the DVD thing,
was a DVD special feature that said in the writer's room. So I click on that and there's
guy Sean Ryan who created the show.
He's sitting in the writer's room, but behind him, there's a giant court board with index
card.
And I go, what the fuck is that?
And it said, I think it's about episode seven.
It said teaser on the card on the top of the board.
Teaser, act one, act two all the way, and then it had cards underneath it.
So I hit pause on the DVD player, and I look, and I realized that that's how he had broken
out an episode.
So when I got a legal pad, and I drew something.
squares on the legal pad, and I numbered the cards based on the what was on the TV,
and I just wrote my episode in that format.
Because, you know, at that time I was working at Starbucks.
I didn't have time for school.
I had a two-year-old son, and I was on the grind.
And I'm like, you know what?
If they're not going to fucking let me in, I'm going to find a way it.
I'm not giving up.
I'll tell you, Joe, I'm not fucking given up.
They're going to have to kill me because I'm going after it.
That's what I did.
I bought a $14 DVD box at a prize,
and I run an episode of television,
and that's how I got hired on...
Actually, that's the script that got me hired on Law and Order SB.
So there you fucking have it, cock suckers.
When you're scared of doing something,
Mick Benacourt comes to the fucking rescue, you understand me?
I love that story.
You gotta go at it.
Mick, when you told me that, I went home,
and I couldn't put my...
And it's funny because the other day I was...
You also came on a movie this year,
and you told me that fucking story.
I couldn't believe that either.
Yeah, I did a little bit.
He's on Gangster Squad, which was
it was such a great experience.
It's amazing why you're sitting there.
Your head's blowing up, correct?
It's incredible because, you know, when guys move out,
you know, like I try to help.
I was a teamster back in Chicago.
When guys come out that are particularly come from a blue collar
background or a very poor background,
those are my guys.
I'm always going to meet you.
I'm always going to get coffee with you,
and I'm always going to help you.
Guaranteed 100% of the time.
And you're going to deal with fear.
You're going to deal with self-doubt.
You're going to deal with a weird form of envy.
Because like you said, with California Pizza Kitchen,
none of it's going to make sense.
So how do you move forward?
Well, what's in my control?
What can I do?
Well, I can go out and I can buy a DVDs at fries.
How can I move my pieces forward?
I go out, I don't have enough for a computer.
Well, go buy a fucking notebook and buy a pen.
Keep writing.
You want to be an actor?
Go out and act.
Anything you can act in.
Doesn't matter.
Shitty plays, horrible short film.
There's people doing shit.
become a part of it.
Get out of your head, out of your head and inaction.
Don't fuck around and don't listen to yourself.
Go after your dream, but it requires work.
Go talk.
Just work.
You know, it's funny, Mick, I was sitting waiting for the plane yesterday,
and I was going through my bag, a little travel bag,
and I found sides from some TV show I had done, you know,
kicking it.
It's a kid show.
Oh, yeah.
And I was sitting there, Nick, and I'm thinking to myself,
that's fucking amazing, that.
And what led to that way,
I was throwing a buddy in my at the airport.
He called me from Jersey,
and he said he saw me in some movie or something
of his friends on some DVD,
and he goes, you know,
it's so weird that you always like movies.
Since I came from Cuba, Nick,
when you can't speak the language,
that's how we learned to speak.
A lot of people don't know that.
I learned to fucking speak the language
by watching movies and acting out Dick Van Dyke.
That's who I wanted to be, Nick.
Mick, Dick Van Dyke.
Can you believe that?
In 1968, I thought Dick Van Dyke was fucking God.
I'd watch him.
He's still the shit.
He's still the fucking shit.
And years later, I ended up doing a movie with him, and I couldn't look at him.
I kept crying.
And he asked me, what was it matter?
Did I have a loss in the family?
I go, no, I can't look at you because it reminds me coming from Cuba and being a little boy and watching your TV and you were everything to me.
So it's weird that I'm in this business now, Mick.
I actually get booked in this business.
And you know what's weird?
In 87, right before I got locked up, I had a roommate who had a friend out here.
You know those people in Chicago that you meet
that have a friend out here?
They're a cameraman on the show.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
You think that's going to be a magic for me in the show business.
Yeah, like that guy's going to get me,
and he's going to tape me,
and one of his friends is going to see me at a bar,
and I'm going to fucking be a TV guy.
And I remember actually calling him up
and going to coffee with him.
He lived, like, in Boulder somewhere,
but he would come out for six months
and shoot, like, some stupid fucking show,
and him, like, you know,
telling me all this shit,
you have to go to action class,
and coming out.
out here and getting on a movie and seeing that in reality how hard it was was really how easy
it was it's very easy to get on a movie but back then i thought it was like going to the
fucking moon mick yeah like if i see a weird i think some people possess talent and the talent
will open a door but they'll kick you out if the discipline isn't there like if you like and
of course there's always exceptions to the rule and i think those exceptions are what bring more people
here than anything to
LA, but the talent
needs discipline.
If the discipline isn't there,
those are the guys you watch fade away.
They hit a little bit. They'll do a movie,
tiny part, and then that's it, because
they don't have the discipline to take the ride
on the rocks, you know? Because you're going to get crashed
on the rocks. Oh, fuck yeah.
That's the journey. That's the whole fucking
patois. How do you
deal with failure? Do you fucking cut and run,
or do you man up, learn from it,
stand back up, just yourself
clock and go, all right, round
two. For my first
eight years, I dealt with it with a fucking grandma
blow and a gallon of water and a couple
joints. Now, I just
inhale it on a solo, like a doctor.
It's like walking around with no undies on. Commando.
Fuck, you don't want to suck my dick, that's fine. I'll jerk off in the fucking
corner. That's science.
But you're bringing science to get. That's a very
scientific approach. What are you going to do?
Well, law percentages.
Listen, man, I read that article about your boy.
What's the
actor that was really big. He did the movie Walking
Alone. He did like Fast and
Furious. Remember women
liked him? He was hot. Oh, Paul
Walker? No, the other guy opposite him.
He played the cop. Vin Diesel. Vin Diesel said something
once. He goes, when I got here,
I moved here with eight buddies.
And after three years,
I was down to five buddies.
And after five years, I was down to
two buddies. And after eight years, I was down
to one buddy. And after ten years,
I got my, I fucking made it.
Yeah. And nobody was left.
And sometimes I believe just sticking it out.
You know, and success isn't being fucking rich or having a limo
or having some Chinese guy in a rickshaw drive you around town.
That's what these fucking people.
Success for guys like you and me is just being here, Mick.
Because we know where we were at one time in our lives.
We know how dark it can get.
We know that...
Oh, absolutely.
We know that fuck you and your motherfucker.
I'll get a gun right now and I'm making it happen on it daily.
You and I both know that that's always in the quarter of our hearts
that I could still go down, get a fucking gun in some new chucks,
and I can make it happen, Doug.
Well, that was the hardest thing when I was up against the wall
when my son was two, and, you know, I didn't move out here
to throw out garbage bags of coffee grind at Starbucks.
You know, that wasn't my dream scenario,
and my mind started to go to that dark place,
and I thought, there's kids involved now.
I'm not going to fuck around.
I'm going to look at my son and go,
I know you're hungry, but Dad wants to be an actor.
Like I can't
That's not who I am
And that's where it got hard
And that's where it got dark
And it was
You know
I was right on that precipice
And where you're going to go
One way or the other
And I just
I took the high road
And I stayed out of trouble
And things changed
You know
Because if I go down that road
It's
At this age
I can't come back
I mean
I'm going to do that
You know
My mother wants to jail
For robbing a bank
I don't have fucking time for that
I can't do that to my kids
You know
your mom went to jail for robbing the bank classic it's like talking to myself
my mother stabbed the guy in Cuba
my mother had an alias what the fuck so I'll see you later on what do you got going on right now
Mike um I'm working on a show called necessary roughness on the USA Network
hey there was a part on there for me last week as a coach

I'll see it.
Is that a comedy show?
Yeah.
Oh, cool.
Right by your house.
See, you go minglingling.
You should tell people you lease that I had.
It's funny when I got in here today, Lee said that we got a lot of great comments on the Conahune podcast.
Yeah.
And let's get something straight, people.
I've had criminals on here.
I was going to have a gangstown today, Kenji.
And he couldn't make a...
today so we had to switch him around i've had gangsters on here i've had touts on here you know
i've had comedians on here the people that you react to the most for some reason the health people
and number two anybody who talks about fucking fear you people go bananas i got 30 emails i got
22 emails on my facebook i got you know another 10 tweets about it 16 fucking emails on my tweet
people were all fucking scared okay and we're all in this together you have nothing to be scared about
Life doesn't have a gun.
People have guns.
Life doesn't have a gun.
Life's not going to fucking kill you or shoot you for fucking trying.
Seriously.
I get anxiety out the ass.
Lee, you get anxiety sometimes?
All the time.
Thinking about shit.
Jesus Christ, when I was Lee's age, I had ulcers, and I would shit, and then the little blood would drip out.
Not come out on this shit like a wallpaper, like a poster on the wall, but it would drip from my ulcer.
And they put me on some medication that was I was thinking too much.
Don't think about it.
fucking nothing you want to be on fucking TV go for it you want to sew clothes and be a
men's designer go for it but you want to fucking lay carpet it's your passion you know
my passion is Lee fuck all this stand up and talking to people I want to coach I want to
coach kids I want to be around kids you know what my other passion was Lee I want to
be a bricklayer you want that was a passion oh fucking still till this day I look at bricks
and I go what the fuck am I doing with my life I want to be a brick me Lee
I was fucking scared.
This shit I wasn't scared for because it came natural to me.
I was scared.
I would get really good as a hard carry and stop.
You know what else I like?
I loved being an electrician.
I loved wiring the fucking boards from the pole.
I loved all that shitly.
But I was scared because I knew I would fuck it up
or I'd burn somebody's house down.
Fear stopped me from so many fucking things.
By the time I got into comedy, I wasn't scared anymore.
I knew one thing about comedy.
By the time I'd gotten into comedy,
to comedy at 28, I knew one thing about life at that point.
I always thought that everything came easier.
You'd do something for two weeks and boom.
Yeah.
That's how I thought.
I ain't going to lie to nobody.
When I got into comedy, I knew one thing.
I knew that.
I didn't want to go back to prison.
So I knew that part of my life.
I didn't want to do deep crime.
And I knew that if I got into comedy,
I had to work at it because this was my last chance.
I knew that when I was 28 years old.
I was 28.
Yeah.
I was 28.
People are confused at 22.
At 24 right now, you're an editor, but it's not really what you want to do.
You know, you'd do it for a living, and you'd make it fun, and you'd make it work for you,
but you want to do other things than you're doing it.
But fear would stop some people.
It's crazy how you were more scared of being an electrician than being a comedian,
because the podcast on Wednesday is a little different because I'm not doing it as a stand-up,
but being a stand-up in front of people terrifies me.
I could never do that.
Well, you know, like I said to you, I remember months ago you came to me.
I want to do it.
I said, Lee, I want you to get your chops up.
And Lee, you've really got your chops up on this podcast.
It's hard to believe you're an editor.
You're usually looking at the computer sitting there like a fucking momo,
cutting, and going back and cutting and going back in your own.
And what amazzing me about you is you don't even get high and do it.
Oh, yeah.
So me to do that type of shit, I got to smoke 55 joints just to sit there and go back and forth
and back and forth and back and forth.
It's a fucking nightmare.
But somebody's got to do it, but please, people.
You know, I love it that.
You guys react to the,
I talked about fear one time on a podcast.
They made videos about it.
So that tells me that people are fucking scared.
And you know what?
Like I said, I was so scared.
I didn't do shit until I was 28.
I was hiding at college, selling fucking cars.
And I wouldn't even do that correctly.
I was always fought to fit on the board.
And between you and me, I was the best salesman on that fucking floor.
Yeah.
If I was me.
But I was always scared.
I was always scared to reach because deep in my heart,
I remember it was a piece of shit.
Well, eventually you got to find.
I can talk yourself out of that shit and just go for it.
So if you're scared, you know what?
We're all fucking scared.
Just do me a favor and go.
What you got to musically?
What do you got from here?
You ain't smoking dope.
You ain't doing with your roommate.
She ain't coming in together, bro.
People want to see him on the show.
We're up to the camera here.
She can come in and dance in the morning for us.
One quick fucking song.
And then we're off and running.
Oh, shit.
Oh, fuck.
Lee.
You took him to be deep with this one.
I'm going to fucking.
Oh, shit.
It's Monday.
Watch that pussy.
Motherfuckers.
Go out there and get to what the hell you want to do?
Oh shit.
Whatley?
Oh.
You're talking about shout-outs, Lee?
Oh, shit.
Jesus Limon.
Barclay and Bend, Oregon.
Mark Julando.
Riley Barrett.
I love you, motherfucker.
Lou Greco, you bad cock sucker.
Jamaica Queens Desquard and Robert Garza.
We're here with your motherfuckers.
Oh, shit.
What do you think about that, wait?
Wiggle, Uncle Joe. Let me get a little wiggle.
Your 50 pounds, Latter, Lee.

Oh, shit. Look at you.

hit it leave.
Want some of this roach, it's on fire, Lee.
We've not had enough.
Oh shit.
Let me have enough.
I had enough.
I had like your fucking fourth joint this morning.
Hey, what are you talking about, Lee?
What do you mean?
What about talking about?
I bring you the best of the best,
this one batch of weed.
People were bringing back to the most of the strong.
You can bring it back?
Yeah, the people were like bringing it back was too strong.
Oh shit.
And you don't want to smoke.
It's clean.
It's clean.
It's stony.
It's clean.
Oh, it's great.
But I haven't been smoking for 30 years.
Like, if I smoke anymore, I'm going to go crazy.

I'm nothing.
You sound good for seven in the morning.

Yeah, I took the dogs out for a quick sprint.
How old are you now, Vinny?
I'm 57.
And you're still in tremendous shape.
You're a title world champion.
You're a fucking savage.
Yeah.
You sound great.
I had you call in today because Vinny's doing a live podcast with us.
For you people, no, no.
He did Beauty and the Beast with myself and Felician hit it out of the fucking pocket.
I looked at Beauty and the Beast about a month ago,
and his episode was 100,000 more hits than this.
anybody else has been in.
Seriously?
Yeah, yeah.
You have a beautiful story.
You have a TV show coming out, I guess,
or you're working on one?
Yeah, we're working on one called Fifth Street.
Fifth Street, about the gym in Miami where you're trained,
and what's been going on?
Papa, talk to me.
Well, you know, I work with my manager.
He lives in New Jersey,
and we, you know, we're on the phone most of the day.
And actually, after this show,
I'll probably be on the phone with him for two hours.
I was trying to put it all together.
He's the only one in this world that got me.
He read my stuff.
He really got what I was trying to say.
He knows about my life.
He knows about it.
And he got to talk to all the right people from what I understand.
All right.
So hopefully we'll be seeing you on the show.
But most important, I mean, the people don't know about Vinny Kurt,
First time I even knew about fucking Benny,
I've seen him on Miami Vice.
He was Bruce Willis' bodyguard on one of the early episodes.
Then I seen him on one of my favorite movies of all time, 29th Street,
and favorites still to this day.
And then I met him at the comedy store.
And we're brothers, fucking 15.
He got me my first audition out on his feet.
I mean, Vinnie's in the...
I've watched the tapes.
I've had him on the podcast, and I break his balls.
I love you, Vinny.
You know that, right?
Yeah, same here, okay?
You have Cuban, you got the Cuban blood in you, you got the Rodney Dangerfield thing.
Are you excited about doing a live podcast?
Because, you know, you always tried your hand in the comedy.
You sold scripts in this town.
Well, I mean, it's always an honor to work with you anywhere.
You know, if you get a comedy job, you get a comedy job, right?
If I say, yeah, I just did a show with a, who's that Cuban comedian comedian?
Joe Dias.
Oh, no kidding.
No, but we're sure we can.
use you, you got a big name, okay?
So I try to leverage
your name so I can get a job, okay?
You're a fucking savage. I love
you. Do you know what you want to
talk about this Tuesday? Any of the stories we
talked about before, about
the little boy, I mean, your boxing
career, anything about Sinatra? I mean, like I said,
you have a thousand fucking stories.
Yeah, that was
funny. I was fighting
I was fighting
in Madison Square Garden, if you want me to tell
that. I was fighting
and they called me up.
They called me up.
These, these, how can I say,
Pisano's called me up and said,
they had a kid that they want,
you know, that they want to go to this.
And, okay, so I fight this guy in the garden,
and I'm blocking, slip, and sliding,
but I'm not from no punches because that's what the deal is.
Anyways,
and, you know,
Sinatra walks in,
with a guy named Jilly Rizzo
and he sat down and said
isn't this the kid
that he goes this is the kid that fought
Vita went to the firm in Vegas
because we talked to this kid
he goes to my mom his kid it looks like he's handcuffed
so he sent the guy Jilly
Rinkside and found out that I was doing something
for the bull and from New York
and he goes he never liked that guy
he goes tell the kid go win
go win tell the kid
so they come to me in the seventh
you know the fifth round
and he goes
kid win I said
just came five rounds.
My corner went berserk.
I went out to six round.
I ain't him a shot.
He went flying, right?
And I started banging away, and all of a sudden, we clenched.
I look wingside, and there's the bull.
I'm going to kill you right here, you motherfucker.
I said, why don't they make up their minds?
I didn't know they weren't together.
Anyways, I come down on the stretch and I get a draw.
I don't lose.
And Sinatra, you know, I'm in my dresser.
was always hilarious.
Sinatra, you know, they bang on my door,
and all of a sudden the guy comes in there, he goes,
oh, kid, it was Jillian and another guy.
He's his kid, he goes,
and Sanatra, I said, yeah, tell him my limb
was on the other side of the garden,
I got to get the hell out of here, right?
All of a sudden, this guy that I knew he's,
you know, he's a pretty serious guy coming.
He goes, you know, the guy wants to see it.
I said, I'll be right there.
I say I wasn't coming.
Anyways, we go to this place called the,
the, the, uh, the, uh, the,
the Waldorf Astoria, I always forget the name,
the Waldorf Astoria to the top floor, the Waldorf Astoria.
Walking, there was these big doors, they opened the French doors,
a big suite, he's sitting at a grand piano with his tie open,
put a drink on the piano, and to the right was his wife, Barbara,
and you know, a blonde lady, and there was another guy named Irving Cutler that sat there.
He was one of the band members.
And he goes, what are you doing?
He said, what do you do with a guy?
I said, I said, buddy, I have no idea.
Right.
So it took me, they took me to Palm Springs to his house.
And the strangest thing happened when I was in his house.
I finally realized how the other half lives.
So it was Friday night, excuse me, it was Monday night.
And he says, it's Monday night football.
He goes, what kind of hot dogs do we want?
Right.
So he sent, he sent, he sent,
one of the guys to the store in Palm Springs
to get some hot dogs for the
Monday football. And he didn't like him.
So he sends his private jet
to a lot of the
dogs that he wanted. When he
put the hot dogs at the table, I felt
like a desperado.
I wanted to dive and eat seven of them
because they had to be worth but the jet fuel
right, like 150 bucks each.
I swear to God, I couldn't
believe it. He sent
the friggin' jet to pick up.
hot dogs. That's fucking amazing.
With the jet fuel and everything, those hotbacks
had to be worth $150 bucks each.
You even took one to go. You stole one.
I was scott. You tried to pawn one the next
fucking week at all fucking hot dog.
Vinny, I'm looking forward to this
Wednesday night. We're going to do this up at
the Ice House of Pasadena.

She's a roo- She's so fucking cute.
Yeah, she's a great girl.

So on.
And I would sniff her running and sniff where the asshole is to see if she starts.
Like the filter, just to prepare you.
That's how I want you to start practicing.
I don't want you.
Listen, if this black, she's going to fart in your face, but she's getting pissed already.
She thinks this bullshit.
What I got to do it?

if you wanted how to touch my cock.
It's tremendous.
People are fucking crazy.
I was so fucking embarrassed.
If he wasn't there, I'd suck my fucking helmet,
but no, I'm just teasing you guys.
It was a great episode today, Lee.
I loved it.
We talked about some shit.
I want people to know you don't have to be fearful of nothing, man.
If you want to do it, fucking go for it.
Email Lee.
He loves doing emails and shit.
Facebook, Twitter.
Email me.
Don't forget, looker, every fucking, you know,
I'm a fat fuck.
I'm not dieting like Lee, but I work out really hard.
The problem is you could work out like fucking Jesus Christ.
If you don't maintain your diet, it just sucks.
You know what I'm saying?
So you have to really stay on your diet.
Before you do any workout, go to a doctor.
See if you even build for it.
Maybe there's a problem.
I got to go for a 50-year checkup.
I got to do something different.
They call me from Kaiser the other day.
I swear to God, that's my co-insurance company.
That's my wife's insurance company.
Okay.
I'm driving, and they call me out of Blune.
Jose, how are you doing?
This is your physician from Kaiser.
I'm like, This is a joke.
We like, we like for you to come in.
They didn't say it this way, but they're like to shit in a cup.
so we could examine your shit, you're getting to be 50.
Oh, my God.
So I've been scared.
There's something wrong with my asshole there.
I thought it was a joke because they said something else,
except you shit in a cup and you bring it in and whatever.
I don't want a shit in a cup.
That's embarrassing.
I'm fucking 50 years old.
I'm shit in a fucking cup.
I'm shit in your yard.
You want to pick it up and scoop it up.
That's your fucking predicament.
But shit in a cup, that's disgusting.
And I even told the way that I go, is this a joke?
I mean, you know, I'm a comedian.
I'm a comedian.
And she goes, no.
I go, you guys aren't even my primary doctor.
It's really sad.
So I'll call them and set an appointment up.
I'm going to call and setting something up for the week after holy week.
Once my wife gets back and shit.

LA Times, play.
Everybody does, they make a delicious
fucking chopped salad
with lettuce, pepperoni, mozzarella cheese.
I have it without the black holidays.
I know it's delicious,
but when I go home and put the points in,

Your salad should not be 10 points.
That's true, yeah.
I'm just trying to help you up.
You want to wait once
