Thank you for fucking clicking on YouTube and watching Uncle Joey's joint on Wednesday, February, the motherfucking 16th. A beautiful fucking day to be alive.

It's been cold as fuck here in Jersey lately. That wind is on, Jack. And I'm the type of motherfucker when I come home at 6. Like, I usually leave my fucking key in the car to see if I'm going out. Fuck, no. In this cold weather, I come home, I click that fucking car. Click, click. You ain't going to see me till the next goddamn.

morning. It's cold that night. And I love cold weather. Don't get me wrong. I don't disintegrate. It's not that bad, but man, you got to get fucking used to it. Great weekend. Great week so far. You know, I got a couple things going on. I got a little surprise for you motherfuckers at the end of the week. You're going to be all fucking excited. But for right now, I wanted to talk about the soup bowl. Soup bowl was great. I had a great fucking time. I went over to Jimmy's. And it's funny because I'm having a little fucking I never really had a mid-life crisis you know everybody

you're gonna get a mid-life crisis you dump your wife you fuck some hot Asian chick you get a Corvette please my mid-life crisis my mid-life crisis right now is what I'm having like I went to Jimmy's fucking great food

you know sausage and peppers pizzas I mean it was tremendous and uh I bet the winning side. You know Uncle Joey? I love Cincinnati all week getting the fucking four and a half four. That's a field goal. They gave it to you.

You know what I'm saying? You just got to read the fucking line. It was funny because a couple weeks ago it was at my daughter's kickboxing school, Fat Joe's. Great fucking place. And I was talking to one of the dads, a fucking solid dude. This dude's built like a fucking door. I went to his house one time to eat. He's fucking huge Canadian dude.

I love him and his wife and their kids. but he's a smart motherfucker. Like he's off the rail smart. Like analyst, econ, fucking, you know, you could tell when you talk to him. He's very heady. Like, he's very heady in his thought. And we were talking. He goes, who do you like?

I goes, I love the Rams. I go, da, da, da, da, da. Let me talk to you about something. Do you think you're just going to march in there? The Rams are going to win by 20 at home on the Lord's Day. And that's it. The bookies are going to take a beat. It's the number one gambling day of the fucking year.

Plain and simple. Everybody bets on the Super Bowl. Grandmas, Chinese people, fucking everybody bets on the Super Bowl. Okay, it's just that big of a fucking day. And there's nothing to counterbalance it. So if there like was a big UFC, McGregor versus somebody, the Super Bowl could say, okay, we'll lose the game, we'll get our money back on McGregor, but that's not the fucking case.

There was nothing to counterbalance it. And there's just so much. fucking dough getting launched on it. You got to take it. The bookies cleaned up this weekend. You never seen a bookie with a part-time job. That's my all-time fucking favorite saying, because I love people who think they're going to gamble and beat the system.

You're going to win. If you're thinking about how many people make a living off gambling, it's a small percentage. If you think it's tough to fucking be a comic, try being a fucking professional gamble because there's ups and downs. And when you're up, you're up, you got to know how to load up. And when you're down, when you're not picking, you got to know how to fucking pull back and watch from the sidelines and get some fucking momentum.

It's tough, gambling. It's very tough. I love it. Not to the degree of, you know, betting millions of dinner. Entertainment. Entertainment is a big difference in being a fucking gavern all across the board. So anyway, back to fucking Tarzan at Fat Joe. So we were talking.

And he's like, no, the Rams are like, it's not going to be that easy. Trust me. know, and I said, in fact, they're going to shock people. And I didn't know. Listen, the Rams on paper were way better than fucking Cincinnati. But, again, they didn't get to the Super Bowl because they're going to fucking suck dick. So I like Cincinnati. I like the fucking under.

I bet the under. All the things I lost were the props. I lost every fucking prop. I'm the kiss of death. But I had the right side and the right total. And that's all that matters. But it's so weird how I looked at football season this year just to learn. I just wanted to do an experiment, you know.

And I got to be honest with you. I did really well pick-wise for football. And I could see early on in the season I made some mistakes with some totals and whatnot. But I did really well with football. My sports to gamble on a fucking football, UFC, everything else I suck dick on. I don't even take a chance. I don't like card games. Basketball once in a fucking while,

but it's so, you know, the ball goes out of bounds, they hit a free throw, you lost your ass. And basketball is every day. So you're going to go down a hole eventually, and I don't want to see you go down a hole. I like the occasional football bet, maybe a college football better than a Saturday. I don't bet college football.

But it's funny, after the game came in, I was told my wife, and I go, you know, I'm really good at this shit. It's so weird. I just don't have. have balls to bet the farm. I have a daughter. I have a wife.

When you have a child, you just can't go. That's their money. You know what I'm saying? But my wife and I were talking, she's like, last week you were over at the Murdoos, around the corner, and you were talking about football, and you were winning that, and, you know, she goes, how did you learn this?

And I go, from losing. That's how you learn to win. You don't learn to win from fucking, you know, you learn to win by losing, by paying a bookmaker, by paying Draft Kings. And you're like, I don't need to pay this motherfucker $25. Draft King's got 50 of my fucking dollars this week. What the fuck is going on here?

You know what I'm saying? So over the years, like I gambled straight to the time I left North Bergen in 83. I fucking gambled. And after that, I really never did it again until I just moved back here. Every once in a while when I went to Vegas. with Rogan, me and Ari would put a betting on the UFC, but as far as doing it every night, I didn't have a bookie back there.

I didn't know anybody in that life. So gambling has been out of my life, you know. So I was telling my wife that you learn. I learned by having the fucking sixers when they were in their heyday against the nets at the fucking metal lands and the sixers were giving four. I didn't see it.

I lost my ass. I had to go fucking mug somebody to come up with money for the bookmaker. When I robbed the jewelry store, you know, I had the fucking losing size. because I didn't know how to read lines. It's not, dog, if you're looking at percentages when you gamble, if you're looking at,

oh, their defense is, listen, you're doing the wrong thing because mom's, grandmas are betting fucking football and winning. Meanwhile, you're sitting there like Johnny fucking pneumonic going through charts and shit. So that's what I'm saying. He was too heady. It's like Joe Rogan.

I love Joe Rogan to death, but he's very hard for him to pick a winner in the UFC because he's so heady. He's so intelligent. Me, I'm just looking. at the fucking line. That's all I'm looking at. So, it was really weird. I learned this at a young age.

Not with my mother's sports. None of that shit. I had no idea what was going on. I learned how to gamble in 80-fucking three. And I learned the benefits of gambling and the decline of gambling. And that's when I made my decision. Fucking February of 83, I made a decision. Never to gamble again. It was between gambling and snort and coke.

I'll take behind what's dawn on them. number two because I realized that when I gamble, I got nothing for my money. You sit there, you fucking sweat bullets, you curse, you say racial slurs, you know, whatever the fuck, you're yelling at the bar. And next thing you know, you go home and you got rabid ears, you got your fucking pockets like empty. You got nothing. You know what?

At that point in 83, when I was 20, I made a decision and fuck it. I'd rather look out of a window and crawl on the floor looking for a Coke rock. At least I'm doing something. I'm burning calories than fucking sitting there watching somebody else. and score. You know, you can't control gambling. And in my mind, I felt like I need $50,000. I'm going to put $50,000 on somebody.

And that's what I used to do. That's not $50,000. I'm exaggerating. But I bet $5,000, $2,000. You know how much money I had in my pocket when I made those bets? $2. And I'm like, fuck, if I lose out, come up with the money on Friday. Jesus Christ, that's a horrible way to live.

But in 83, after I robbed a jewelry store in 82, the 40th anniversary coming up in September, I hit out for a while in Sarasota, Florida, and then I came back to Jersey. I lived to a dude named Fernie, who I've been thinking about a lot lately. I miss them. You know, like I said the other day, it's 40 years since high school.

When I moved here in the back of my mind, I'm like someday, me, Conti, Fernie, and fucking Pellie will get together. Pellie ended up dying. Fernie won't return my Facebook messages. And I talked to Glenn. In fact, I talked to Glenn this month. on and so but i learned a lot from his demise fernie hit rock bottom in 83 and i saw him you know i saw the whole thing go down it was no bueno and uh we started getting like when i came back from

sarasota i had a little bit of fucking gold chain money left so i got a job right away Fernie's father got me a job at this warehouse that set up these fucking cabinets for Entemans donuts when you walk into a store, a supermarket, and you see those shells that say Entom and donuts, we would make the display. It was a place in Edgewater, New Jersey. It was a union job.

You worked 7 to 3 and fucking, I think I did it for like a month and we got fired. But it was tremendous because I was hustling. You know, I was doing whatever. the fuck I was doing and then I got the job it was Furny's father's restaurant was called HMB Diner on

Edgewater Road down there and fucking this was around the corner you know in fact if you ever watch Copeland that liquor store I used to go there for one of the guys every day it was a little skinny black dude he used to give me a couple dollars to go get them blackberry brandy every day

for lunch tremendous when you're 20 this shit's fucking tremendous right so every morning we wake up freeze our fucking ass. So I still remember being in his car shivering, you know, October of 82 and fucking like vanity was on. You know, uh, Tulin?

Isn't it saying to me? Do you want? Nasty girl? That jam. I still remember being in the car. Me, stinky, ferny, freezing our fucking asses off at 4.45 in the morning and listening to vanity. That's how fucking crystal clear. Like I told you, motherfuckers. I don't know what happened two days ago.

but 30 years ago I'm on it I'll tell you sentences speeches the whole fucking thing so we would go to every fucking day five days a week and then we had a tab at Fernie's father's restaurant

we'd just go in there and get pork sandwiches at $3 a piece there was weeks I only meant like 20 bucks from all the food I ate at Fernie's his father was a tremendous cook but we would get to this place

and we already like the guy who got us Fernie's father got us the job to this dude and we went to the dude dude and go listen, we're out all night drinking. If you think we're going to live shit, he goes, listen, I don't mind. Just go up to the attic and hide.

You know what I'm saying? We would go up there and fucking hide all day. Me and this cat stinky would go up there and fucking, you know, play football. We'd line the boxes up because they had big refrigerator boxes. And we lined the fucking boxes up like linemen and shit. And I'd get a football out of the car and I'd run around the linemen. He'd tackle me. That's what we did for fucking seven hours.

We went to lunch at Fernies. We got high. We brought a bottle back for the skinny black dude, and that was it. We reported to the skinny black dude. I'm sorry, I don't know what his name was. If we were 20, he was maybe 50, this fucking dude. And he drank every day. He wore gloves with little fucking zits off his fingers and shit.

Good guy. You know, I love the guy. We were there with him, and he wouldn't fucking report us or anything. But one day, the reason why we got fired, everything was going great. and the only job they'd make us do me and stinky was when the was to take the boxes for the refrigerators

and hand them they're these huge boxes so you've got to turn around pick it up and hand it down it was from the second floor to like two floors down it was a big piece let's say the piece of cardboard

was eight feet long kind of heavy so we're fucking doing all this and with one of them I started working really fast and I just said, Glenn, move back, and I would just whip them to him. We did this every day. We go up there, fucking play some football, eat a pork sandwich, then come back and whip those things. He either whip them to me, and then I'd put him on a palate,

or I'd whip him to him. Well, this particular day we're up there, and we're fucking whipping him, and the little skinny dude, the black dude, our boss, comes over, and he's like, hey, you've got to double up on these, because we've got somebody picking them up. I don't know what the story was. I wouldn't. I'm going to blow smoke up your ass.

He goes, in fact, I'll help you. Now he was a skinny dude. He was always drunk. You know, he always had three or four shots and he smoked dope. And you know me, I'd feed him dope every day. I'd give him the best dope and tell him to smoke a half a joint. And he go, what the fuck is that shit, dog? You motherfucker almost killed me.

This went on. So there's one day, he goes, you and Glenn go up on top and shoot us the boards down. And me and I'll get another dude, like a chubby white dude, and we'll fucking load. Glenn will shoot to him, and you shoot to me.

Okay. So I'm fucking up there. And I'm a young kid. I'm fucking zipping him. And he's like, hey man, slow down. You know what's the matter with your brother? There's a union job. Take your motherfucking time because it's a union job.

What are you in a rush for? They're going to pay you the same shit. So he starts to start. That's moving back, right? Because we were loading them so fast. And all of a sudden I threw one, and I saw the wind kind of caught it. And he's like, man, slow down with those things. And on the next one, and I didn't mean to do anything from the bottom of my heart.

I like this dude. I took the board, and I just went to zh. And he was a little farther away, and the thing caught some air. And it was like a flying carpet. And you could see his face, like he lost it and shit. Like he thought he had it, but he lost in the sunlight and shit. And all of a sudden, the thing. just went, it curved and just went,

I seen the motherfucker from the top. I saw the thing curved like a magic carpet, then it just zoom right in, and it hit him right in the bridge of the fucking nose. Boom, like three inches of fucking cardboard moving 40 miles an hour. This dude goes down like a bad habit. He goes out, Jack.

He's bleeding from the bridge of his nose. He's got a little contusion on the back of his head from falling backwards and shit. Tremendous. And we got him up. We cleaned them up. but the boss is like, listen, you guys just come here to fuck around every day.

I can't have it. You're done. So you fired us. I went and got a job at fucking, uh, this Fairview, uh, hardware store,

right? Great place, nice family. But in the meantime, I'm living with Fernie. And I'm going out at night, maybe three nights a week. Fernie had to be at work at six and a month.

So he wouldn't go out during the week. So I would just tell him the next night when I'd see him, what we did the night before. So one night he does come out, like on a Tuesday night, and he's listening to me in stinky talk and Pelly and McNeil, and he's listened to us to talk about gambling. And he pulls me aside, and he goes,

what the fuck are you guys talking about all the time? And he go gambling, you know, we're talking about basketball, all of us were losers. Trust me, I'm telling you this, losers with a big L tattooed on our foreheads. We couldn't pick a winner. And he's like, man, I think I want to gamble. You know, I want to gamble what you do.

So I'm like, okay, you know, we'll find you a good game. You know, we'll find something for you and I'll teach you. Now, at the time, he was a cook, but he also was a waiter at his dad's restaurant. So he would take his tips and put him in a box under his bed. He wouldn't even count him. He'd just draw a box in there. So it's a Sunday, and it's like December. We had done some quailudes and shit.

Went to see Pat Benetard. The guy at the Metal Andes store. We were a handicap. He put us in the handicapside. Tremendous. So the next day we wake up, fucking... He goes, I want to put in a bet. Who should I bet?

I don't know, friend. You know football as much as I do, you know? He bets a thousand dollar parley. He goes under his bed, takes out the cash, counts it, puts all the singles and tens and five. together and he, I think he had like 1,600. He goes, fuck it. I'm betting a thousand dollar fucking Parley.

Oh my God. Who do you like? So we called with a friend's dad. Pelly's dad. God rest of so. And the next thing you know, it was like Seattle versus Pittsburgh and some other team. Well, he better two-team parlor. The first game was like the one o'clock game.

He won. The second game was like Seattle, Pittsburgh. You could look it up. I don't know what it was. It was December of 82. Pittsburgh opened up a 28, 27 nothing lead. And I actually put, because I wanted to support him, I actually put like a 10-time parlay in,

which is 70 to lose and 160 to win. If I'm correct, who the fuck knows? It's been years since I did all that shit. So fucking, I put in like 10 times. Once the one game on and the team we bet for the 4 o'clock game was losing, I guess we were both hung over And we fucking fell asleep This motherfucker wakes me up

And he goes dog This is what it was They were losing 28 nothing And whatever came back 29 28 He had a dream

That they came back and won He woke up And they came back and won He woke me up He goes we won We won He goes I don't even know How much I won

And we put the bed in with my friend's dad So he called my friend's dad, my friend's dad, like, Jesus Christ, your best, the first bet you ever put in, you put in a thousand-time parlay, and the motherfucker comes in. How lucky are you? So we actually go down there on a Sunday night, pick up the cash, I don't know what it was, guys, 10,000, whatever, with two fucking stupid kids. He wants to go eat a lobster tail.

He never ate lobster. Take him up to Picolissimo. He drinks the finger bowl. I mean, tremendous. We had a great night. That was the opening night of his gambling career. If that was the opening night, he couldn't in his mind think of what it would be like three months down the road. Like I saw him already like, guys, I was a novice all-sword gambling.

The only person I saw loser ass at gambling was my mother. So I wasn't too, you know, I didn't know. I didn't know the fucking whatever. Fernie kept betting. Fernie kept fucking betting big, big. And guess what, guys, winning. I don't know how the fuck he was doing it. He was betting totals and a game.

He would bet like three moves and they'd go three and a. This went on for about four or five fucking weeks. He kicked ass in the NFL fucking playoffs. I mean, it was just amazing how much money he had. One night we're talking. The Super Bowl's coming up. It's Miami against motherfucking the Redskins with John Riggins and Miami Dolphins with the Killer Bs,

two great fucking teams. I think Washington was favored. I loved Washington. I fucking loved Washington. Riggins was tough. The offensive line was the hogs. It was a great fucking team. At this time, I wasn't doing bad.

I was working. I was hustling a little bit. I knew I was leaving. So I was planning things to leave. I had my eye in this bookmaker in West New York that I wanted to rob. That was my big fucking, you know, I hear you.

Like, I hope that job calls me back. My big thing was, I can't wait to rob this bookmaker. Fucking embarrassing when I think about it. So that bookmaker was going to be my cash out. Something bad was going to happen. I would have to leave town. I robbed a bookmaker. Boom, and I go.

So Super Bowl Sunday comes. Frone says to me, listen, man, I went under my bed. I got $60,000 in cash. I'm the bookie. I go, what are you going to do? I'm a bedded all in Miami. I go, what? I guess, I'm a bedded all on Miami.

I'm putting Miami and the over and all this shit. And then the phone started ringing. And this motherfucker started sitting on bets. And so did I. I was sitting on bets too. For some reason, they couldn't put bets in. So I sat in a couple, you know, small bets. I'm not a fucking moron.

Fernie sat on big bets. One thing leads to another. Guess what? The fucking dolphins get killed. I'll never forget sitting there in the room with him. We lived in a basement apartment. We had two open up beds. The back room smelled like a sewer.

That's where I ate the fucking, that's the place where I lived when we mugged the chatter of them. And I gave him the epileptic pills and shit. It was just a nightmare. It was a cute little apartment. It was great. But I still remember sitting there with Fernie. And in the back of my mind, I won like 800 bucks.

Farnie lost 60 plus he sat on $20,000 worth of bets. 18 years old, guys. I didn't know what to do. I felt fucking terrible. I really did. I felt guilty in a way. I didn't make him pull the trigger. You know what I'm saying?

He asked me about gambling. He asked my friend about gambling. We told him, and he started betting fucking big. I mean, he never really recovered from that. After the Super Bowl, he must have slept for a fucking week. And the next day morning I wake up. Fernie won't get out of bed. I feel terrible for him.

I go pick up the 800. I fucking won. Plus I had about 400 in my kick from sitting on bets. I go to a charties like a big shot. It's fucking freezing. It's like a day like today. Fucking freezing. The sun's out.

Beautiful fucking day. And I go eat nice breakfast, like a big shot that I am. I'm saying. I won fucking some money. And I go, fuck it, I'm going to go into the city. So I take a bus into the city. I take a train. That's what I did. I took a, I took a, the George Washington Bridge, and I took the A train down to about 160.

I forgot how fucking cold it was. I walked down to Amsterdam. I'm down there walking the fuck around. And I used to go to a particular place, a health food store. It was a skinny black dude. You walked in there, you had bulletproof. class. There was a yuhu, two yuhus,

and maybe tiger milk protein bars. Like maybe two tiger milk protein bars. That was a health food store back done in the fucking, in the fucking 80s. So I went in there, and I told the guy, listen, you know, what are you got? And he goes, I got the Buddha. I got the sense.

I got everything. In those days, the Buddha was big. Buddha chocolate Thai, Buddha chocolate, Buddha, regular Buddha. There was a thousand Buddhas. going around Harlem and they were all fucking good and basically it was a weed called lambs bread

which a lot of you guys it's gone now you might have to go to Miami to get it maybe Jamaica I'm not sure people duplicate it in LA we got lambs bread that ain't lambs bread bitch that's fucking squank that's not lambs bread so I fucking go over there it's freezing out and I'll never

fucking forget that I tell the dude I I don't know what he charged me I bought like eight dollars worth of wheat And those days, that was a lot for Uncle Joey. I only had money by 20. But I had just won. I bought like fucking $80, $90.

I forget what the fuck it was. Good weed. And I look at him and I go, look, do you mind if I roll a fucking number in here? And he goes, nah, go ahead, you're a good customer. I go, it's too cold out there to roll. I remember he had a TV on in there. And I wrote the fucking number. I walked outside and the wind off of Amsterdam, which is blowing.

The wind would come off the fucking Hudson there. And you're dying. It's cold as it is. It's like fucking 18 degrees. And I'm like, okay, I couldn't even like the fucking joint. I was trying to light the joint. I'm in corners. I'm in alleys.

I couldn't light the joint. So I walked in and there's like a little thing where you, you know, those New York City apartment buildings have like those little alleys. Like a superintendent walks through there to take the garbage out and shit. I went into one of those things, but I had my back facing the street. And when I went in the corner like and cut the fucking thing, I'm trying to roll it. I feel a fucking gun to my head, guys.

And I'm like, what the fuck? And he goes, put the weed down, put the lighter down, put your hands up behind your neck. And he goes, New York City Police identified himself. I put my hands behind my neck. You fucking handcuff me. I go, what's going on? He goes, were you smoking pot? I go, yeah, it's right down the fucking floor.

He goes, listen, man, there's a school down. on the block. I'm going to go in your pocket. If you got more than fucking like 10 singles on you, I'm going to break your fucking head. I was like, oh no, what are you talking about? I live in Jersey. He goes, no, no, no. He went in my pocket. He reached out. There was nothing but Ben Franklin's in that, thank God. He goes,

where'd you get this morning? I told him, I had the Redskins yesterday. He goes, listen, get on your hands and knees. Not on my hands. He goes, get on your knees and keep your head behind your head until the van comes. And I go, my arrest it. And he goes, let me see you have a license on you

and right away I'm like no now usually when somebody a cop in those days asked me if I had a license on me or ID I would say no and they'd ask me a name I tell him a fucked up name just you know to whatever

guy turns me around he goes what's your name I have no ID what's your name Joey Diaz Jose Diaz date of birth I give it to him he goes all right sit down until the fucking van comes I'm like what

fucking van. I'm going to get arrested the day after the fucking Super Bowl. God damn it. I had just gotten arrested a couple of weeks earlier for fucking trying to push some checks and shit. I'm like, God damn. I got that man. I'm going to get fucking pinched on the day after the

Super Bowl plus I got money. The van pulls up. He carries me to the van. He takes the fucking cups off. He sits me in the van. It's like a four dude, Patty van with a whole fucking control center in there. I'd never ever seen anything like this. So I fucking sit there and he goes, what's your name again? Write it down. I wrote my name down,

my address. And for some reason, I wrote the fucking truth. I had just gotten busted on the Jersey side. This is New York City. He goes, let me get your fingers. And it was just like a fingerprint thing. I put my fingers down. I think I had to put my whole hand down. And within fucking 10 minutes, my ID came up. And he goes, all right, Jose Deer. But he was, I don't know. I was a He goes, all right, you told me the truth. Because he asked me, did you tell me the truth? I go, yeah, why would I lie? He goes, I'm going to run you.

I thought he was going to run me on the fucking phone, although to walkie-talkie, you know, Jose Diaz. When they run Jose Diaz, it's always a crapshoot, because I don't know what's going to fucking come back. So he comes back, he goes, oh, you got a rest in the jersey a few weeks. He goes, all right, there's a story. There's a guy selling weed to kids,

and we're getting complaints. So when we shook you down, It was for the fucking for sales. Obviously, you're not selling weed. You're just a consumer. You came over here to cop a bag of wheat. Absolutely. Okay.

What I'm going to do is I'm going to write your ticket. He took my fucking bag of weed, and he took like half it out and threw it on the floor. Then he rolled the rest up and put it in my pocket. That's pretty fucking cool. He goes, I got to do that because no like that I'm telling the truth of the weight. He only charged me like two grams or something. I don't fucking remember.

He gave me a ticket. and I went five you know I went to the weed store and got another fucking eighth I had cash Jack I fucking took the cash and I fucking went home the reason you're like Joey

but you didn't tell me how you learn how to read lines what's I got to do with you reading lines if you fucking got arrested for refa I was getting to that cock suckers so now remember I got that ticket they gave me a ticket

So when I went home a couple days later, I had to call a number, and they gave me a court date. Okay, now, it's college motherfucking basketball season. So the Super Bowl ended. This is July 31st, 1982. The Super Bowl was on the 30th. How do I remember? I don't fucking know. So now, you know, February comes, you know, it's New York City.

You're not going to go to court the following week. You're going to go to court in like eight weeks. And sure enough, when do you think my fucking court date was? March Madness. the fucking finals, the night of the finals. I had to go to court at Monday night at 6 o'clock. The game starts at 7. Check it out.

It was Houston against North Carolina fucking state. Okay, now this is the second time I had done this with a line. The line started, I don't know. I don't remember the line on this game, but it was very high. 13 points or something. The day of the game, it went down to 11, which made a guy like me go bananas. When the line goes down two points or a point

That means they're pushing you to bet on that team Go against that team They know something you don't know Me, I'm an asshole, me and all my buddies bet big On fucking Fy Slamma Jammer, Houston with Akeem the Dream Clyde Drexel the whole fucking thing The other team was, you know, Valvano's fucking thing You know, don't give up the whole thing the cancer coach whatever

Good fucking guy, great coach I can't believe Mike's just have to. He's retiring after this year. But anyway, what's I got to do with it, George? What the authority on fucking coaches now all of a sudden? No, I just like basketball. So fucking, sure enough, I bet big on this stupid fucking college basketball game. As soon as the line went down to 11, I loaded up like $300.

Guys, I'd have $300. I'd have fucking $300. So I'll never forget being in court and waiting to go up. in front of the fucking judge. The judge, you ever go to night court guys in New York City? You're going to be there for a few hours, all right? It's a large representation there at night. So I kept going out to call sports phone.

Every time the fucking judge took a break, I went out to call sports phone. And, Doug, they were losing outright. Never mind giving 11 points. They were winning by 8, and they still had a cover. They were losing by fucking 15. So I know I was a gun. The moral story is, when the line shifts the other way, Don't bet that team.

Bet the fucking underdog. Friday nights, okay? Any Friday night when I was a kid, the Celtics with Larry Bird and the sixers of Julia serving. If they were home, they would always give a big line, 12, 13, 14. But at game time, the line would go up two or three points. That means bet the farm. If you're giving 14 and the line goes up to 16,

that means they want you to bet the underdog. That's when your dick gets hard and you bet it all. You're going to see if you do it 10 times, 8 out of 10 you're going to fucking win. And those are line movements. The biggest line I ever lost was San Diego against the Raiders on a Monday night game. I think the game ended up in 81. The game ended up on a 56 to 60 fucking score. I had the over.

Yeah, it was too fucking easy. It was Air Coriel against fucking the Raiders or whatever the football. fuck it was. But here was the thing. On that game, the line went from seven and a half to seven. Me and my buddies were at Hashways all day, counting the money.

We bet fucking San Diego the Raiders fucking clobbered them. So it's not about the totals. It's not about how many rushing yards. It's not about the fucking quarterback. It's not about it. I could tell you one prop. Everybody lost with this weekend. Odell Beckham, right?

whatever. O'D B, O'Dell Beckham Jr. used to be a giant. Everybody bet him to fucking score, right? Two, three fucking touchdowns. And he got hurt.

I think he scored one. I'm not sure. I don't remember who gives a Frenchman's fuck. I'm not a statistician. But all this shit, I love these type of podcasts. I can just rap to you motherfuckers about life. You know,

we got to get a good giggle. And then you go smoke some reef and go on to your bad self. But all those fucking things, dog, Listen, you remember, some people remember their wins. Like my biggest payday when I was a kid was Joe Montana against the Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco, the Dwight Clark.

You know, I still remember arguing that night with people how Dallas was going into San Francisco, giving them a point. And San Francisco ended up winning by fucking won. So all these things, every time you lose money, like I always tell people, you want to learn a lesson, lose money. Anybody can fucking learn a stupid lesson But if you really want to learn a lesson

Lose money That lesson will go with you For the rest of your fucking life That's how that fucking works out And that's it now For the rest of the fucking year I mean I don't even think That we have draft kings

It goes into March Matt It's amazing how much gambling Tapes off after football It tapers off close to 45% to 48% People just go fucking black People just go dark They don't want to bet nothing else

They don't like basketball Baseball's too fucking hard You gotta give a run It's a weird world guys But if you're looking to be a professional gambling First off hit Lee up And see how that shit works out And always remember the house

You know the fucking sides are against you All the time The house is against you all the time It's going to be the hardest You got a better chance of making it as a comedian Than being a fucking professional gambler So that's why when draft kings came to me

and I went on there and fucked around their page I wasn't too into having a gambling sponsor but after I saw how you had to pay them like I thought like I thought that if you gave them like a card like an American Express card

and your limit where you don't have a limit with American Express they would give you like a limit and then every month they would deduct it no no no no no every bet you put in gets knocked off your fucking card They won't do a fucking card. They won't do a PayPal.

It's crazy. All I can use is my ATM card. That's it. But I've only made two fucking deposits, three fucking deposits, two. So everything else, I just lived off. And like I said, I enjoyed doing the $25 bets. I'm not.

When I said in the beginning, I was a gambler. No, I'm not. Not like most people in the stories. I wasn't no Marky Warburg. I wasn't no fucking James Conn and a gambler. Great movie. I could never turn into one of those things. And after what I saw my mother do with fucking gambling,

fuck that. Gambling is an entertainment vehicle. That's it. If you're planning on getting limos and bitches and cocaine, you're in no danger. When I worked for the sports betting service, they wanted you to portray a guy that lived like that. Like my alias was Pete Patello.

When Pete Patello will call you, he just got back from Vegas. He was hanging out with the fucking Guarici, brothers eating steaks. He just dropped off Antonio Brown over at Yey's house. You know what I'm saying? It was that character because you want to sell people the fucking notion that they could become you.

They want to be you. You're not selling them the games. You're not selling them gambling. You're selling them you. You know what I did last night? What did you do last night? You stayed home in your mother's basement. You know what I did last night?

I took a choice. I didn't know what I wanted to drive. my Lamborghini on my Corvette on my helicopter. I went over to my little Asian girls' house. I snorted some coke off a clip. We ate some wantons. And then I went to Vegas, ate $180,000 and came home. When you talk to somebody like, really?

I got to be like you. It's fucking scary. It's scary. So if you're gambling and you're thinking of being a big shit, it's not going to happen. But if you're like, that's it. For me, I got to know like Golden State's got to play now. Colton State lost last night.

I'm fucking believable two nights ago to the Clippers. That's how you know things are fucking bad. The Clippers, that's Alonzo Bowdenstein. But anyway, I'm sorry I'm talking about fucking sports. I just, I didn't talk much about the football on Monday and I felt bad. A couple of people hit me up and said, Joey, you didn't talk to us about the Super Bowl. You know, guys, when it comes to sports with the podcast here,

I've been through fucking hell with this shit. I don't want you guys to start betting 300 a fucking game. But if you bet 10, like I tell people, people hit me up all the time, Joey. We signed up for draft kings. How much do you recommend? 10 bucks. 10 bucks. You're going to pick up 18, 19, 50, $20?

That's better than nothing. That's lunch. That's gas. And guess what? You lose 10 bucks. Your kids still eats. It's that simple. But when you're gambling with fucking $10,000, I'll tell you what,

that's a different fucking world. I don't even have. I don't even have the patience to sit there. Like when I bet $25, I get a little angry from time to time, not all the time. But I look at it and I go, how do you fucking do they lose? Like whenever you bet the Knicks, Brooklyn Nets, forget it. I don't bet home games or bet against home fucking teams. But anyway, let's change it up a little bit, wrap this up in a different fucking perspective here.

It's been a great week. I'm feeling fucking better every day. I'm looking better. You know, I'm sleeping. Last night I had shitty fucking sleep. I kept dreaming I was for him off the bed. That's fucking crazy. And I didn't get, it's not like I ate an edible or nothing.

I had a little fucking reefer. I had my little pill and I had fucking, I take these fucking, and I switch them around every night to sleep. I have the CBD lion gummies with melatonin. Fucking tremendous. But after two or three nights, I got to switch. him up for a week. I took some of those last night. I take this fucking Vicks, whatever, like NyQuil, without the quill. You know what I'm saying?

Just a nine. Whenever you want to fucking absolutely want to sleep, NyQuil will fuck you up. Trust me, but you're mean you, don't do nothing to me no more. Like, I could just drink it if I'm sick and stuff, but the night quill without the quill, it's not bad. It's a little cherry flavor. You hit two shots of that shit. Smoke a little bong hit after that. You get a little bonnet after that you get the little blackberry flavor in your mouth and shit you get nice and fucked up you giggle a little bit you go to fucking bed i watch bobby flay and get hungry you know you sit there and you're like bobby what the fuck where my and that's the thing when you watch bobby flay yeah when you watch bobby flay you get so hungry but you're like man i could go for that but all i

got some peanut butter and jelly upstairs i ain't got no fucking uh for all last night he made risotto seafood risotto with fucking yellow paella. He was on fire last night, Bobby Flay. Even though I don't like Bobby Flay that much, I think he's a fucking dick. I always cheer for the people that go up against Bobby Flay against him. But the game is fucking fixed because they always give the judges the second dish,

and they know it's fucking Bobby Flay. The other night they had this cute little skinny Cuban girl on there. She made a beautiful piccadillo with white fucking rice, some yucca, which is a mistake. Never throw them with the yucca. people like to fry bananas, you know what I'm saying? That was the mistake. I was yelling at it through the TV through osmosis.

Switch that yucca up. Yucca's like a potato, but it smells like fucking, oh my God. Listen, how much Cuban as can be, and I don't eat fucking yuca. And they put garlic on it, garlic sauce. It looks delicious, but not for Uncle Joey. Not this fucking time around. And here's Bobby Flay. He made a yellow rice with Piccadillo.

Number one. Piccadillo and yellow rice don't fucking go together That's rule number one If you're fucking Cuban That's why you'll never see Joey at that fuck like this These restaurants in L.A. where they just shot

the dude in Beverly Hills A couple months ago they had two shootings out there Bella Rose or whatever They had that yellow rice They had great black beans but they had yellow rice I can't go in there no more I'm a fucking Cuban you know what I'm saying I can't put yellow beans on fucking yellow rice

like rice errone. The fuck is wrong with these people. So it's the truth. So what I fucking do is, I'm watching this, and she's got the perfect plate. Plus, she's Cuban. Here's what pissed me to fuck off.

Two of the judges. One dude was a Cuban who owned a restaurant. The other chick was like on a committee of Spanish restaurants in New York City, but she was as Cuban as can be. Then there was a Chinese dude. Guess what? The two Cubans threw fucking shade on her,

but the Chinese dude said it was the best meal he ever fucking had. I was furious. I'm like, this motherfucker, these two fucking Cubans, they were like top shelf Cubans, you know what I'm saying? Like you want to smack them in the fucking head.

They just came over like 30 years ago and they like Gloria Stefan and shit. Fuck them. Fuck her and Andy Garcia. You see him at the Super Bowl sitting there? Let me tell you something. LA is getting more and more fucking disgusting. I don't know what's going on.

That was not for me, though. That whole, I don't know, guys. I don't want to say nothing, but like, I don't like anything in L.A. Because people got to act like assholes. They show Antonio Brown sitting next to Kanye West with a fucking mask on his face, like a fucking idiot.

Jennifer Lopez with fucking big glasses, dancing. Meanwhile, she fucked every other guy in that fucking room. Ben Affleck. The black dude is there, piffy, puffy, whatever his fucking name was. They're all there. She fucked eight dudes in the room.

She's over there fucking dancing. I'm like, oh, Matt Damon with a fucking little fag mustache, like walking around, shape the fucking, I don't care if you're shooting a movie, shaved that fucking mustache. You're not the guy from fucking community. You know what I'm saying? Like they all want to have that little faggy mustache guys.

And then you had like Mark Wahlberg on the phone. That's always a beauty. And then you got my man the rock that wrestled and fucking after football. He went to WWE and he eats more steroids than fucking Attila the Hunt. and he's out there jumping up and down yelling and screaming, it just wasn't for fucking me. I got to tell you something,

I always liked the rock. I'm starting to hate that motherfucker now. He's such a fucking Disney fucking fuck. I can't. Dog, these people are just sad now anymore. That's it. You sell your soul? And for what?

To go to the Super Bowl and then post, I came full circle. Get the fuck out of here, Rock. Go talk to Rogan, make up with him, you cock sucker. Anyway, I love you motherfuckers at all my heart.

You guys don't want to look at me all the fucking time. I've got to tell you some guys, I'm looking at myself and I'm being honest. I'm not looking good lately. I don't care what it.

People tell me you look younger. No, yeah, I don't look uglier. I look uglier and fucking older. I'm losing my hair. I got more fucking lost hair. My face is turning gray. Can you believe that shit? But, hey, I'm going to be 59.

I'm going to have a great weekend. And I'll touch base of you motherfuckers. Thursday. Yeah? 50 fucking nine years old. Do I hate that number with all my fucking heart? I hate that number with all my fucking art, man. But you know what I really?

really want to do for my birthday this year, I'm going to go to Jiu-Jitsu. Yeah, I want to do something that the biggest mistake I've made in my life was on my birthday. It was quitting karate in 1979. That was close to 40 fucking years ago, you know, 42 years ago, 43 years ago. This year, I want to go to karate. I want to go to Jiu-Soo on my birthday. And just, I don't know, just to come full circle like the fucking rock. No. I don't know why. So much matter. Yeah.
