Starting point is 00:00:02 Kick this motherfucker, me oldly. What's happening, beautiful people? The church of what's happening now. What is it? New Edition. New Testament. New Testament is in full effect. It's Tuesday, March 3rd, 2006.
Starting point is 00:00:17 It's a beautiful day to be alive. What up, doctor? Fuck the snow. Oh, sorry about last week. We couldn't get in there fucking snow everywhere. There was a fucking pile of snow out there. I thought that Guthrie mom was under it. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:00:32 That's where they put her. She's in the snow somewhere, that dirty bitch. What if it melted in? Then you found her. Listen, after three weeks on the street, she's nothing. You throw some salt on them, some of that salt they throw on the fuck. Some of the New Jersey salt, yeah. And you put that fucking, dirty feet of snow on that bitch.
Starting point is 00:00:49 They'll find the skeleton. You know what I'm saying? That's it. They'll find it during Halloween. It looks like a fucking decoration. But the snow was real. It was brutal. You know, I enjoyed it.
Starting point is 00:01:01 You know, I shoveled the one night Fuck it You gotta die You gotta die Only you with a fucking Knee that's held together By toothpicks I don't there shoveling
Starting point is 00:01:10 I have a wife that's an animal She was not gonna let this And I couldn't watch her get a heart attack So why not pay $60 to have someone come over I put her on the snow plow And I got the shovel And I moved the cars And we threw salt
Starting point is 00:01:24 And you know That was like like 9 o'clock At 12 Double the snow had been on it I know Fuck that Fuck it. The next morning I got up, and I looked out that window.
Starting point is 00:01:33 I'm like, ooh, Lord. So I called this kid. And I always see him. I met him about five years ago. He was like 11 maybe, 10. I met him at the pool, little Yusuf, little gangster fucking Arab kid. Gangster. So I hit him up that morning.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I go, Yusuf, I'm an old man. I need for you to come over and shovel. First thing he says is how much? I said, three bills. He goes, I get two friends with me. I go, I see you this afternoon. Three bills. I would have come down for three bills.
Starting point is 00:02:02 No, but the Russian did it for $150. I gave him a bill tip. Nice. The Russian and his wife came up with a bobcat. They woke us up at like nine. They're like, what's the story? You guys want it done? Give you a buck 50.
Starting point is 00:02:14 I said, do it in 10 minutes. I'll give you an extra yardstick. You should have seen that rush. And they're drinking buck. Did you do that as a kid? That seems like something you would do. What? Like go out and say you're going to shovel, but then get the money and not shovel.
Starting point is 00:02:28 No. It's crazy because this came. This was a paradise for money. When it snowed, all you had to do was come up to Hudson County Park. If you made it up there, because you'd push everybody. Those 2nd Avenue, all those streets from North Bergen to Kennedy Boulevard, they'd be clobbered with snow. So all you had to do was stick out.
Starting point is 00:02:48 And somebody, you push somebody, you left the house with a shovel because you always had to unburry the tires and shit. Sometimes they help you. One motherfucker wanted me to put chains on, I'm like, dog, that ain't going to work. My gloves are thin. You know, my gloves are thin. But you came home, you know, listen, the seventh grade, which is 42, 46 years ago. 40 bucks.
Starting point is 00:03:14 Your king was a lot of money. And you came, you shoveled, and some people made 100. They were out there all day. Yeah. The funniest story ever is that New York City hired snow shovelers. Yeah. 30 bucks an hour. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:29 Okay? And then. You know, people just have no idea. First of all, you... So if you work seven hours, you get 210. Yeah. For eight hours, you get 240, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:42 And then it's 12-hour shifts. So for four hours, you get 45 hours now. But did you hear what's happening? It's a fucking disaster. I think Sunday night, one of them got hit by a car. He said that my buddy works under the sanitation. Okay. He says they were looking at the...
Starting point is 00:04:01 the thing and you could see film of them shooting dice and drinking and smoking crack and shit. Dude, I saw people on Instagram. He went there. He signed up, got the shovel, and went home. Yeah. He said there was no. But. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:16 That's it. But then, yeah. But they're not getting paid until like May, they said. Yeah. I mean, listen, it's a paycheck. I mean, listen, first of all, you don't know how to shovel snow. See, we came from Colorado. I'll tell you how to you shovel snow.
Starting point is 00:04:29 First of all, you ever hear? Jews, the law diminishing returns. It's 10 below out there. I've shoveled snow like three times in my whole life. I'm only going to get you for four good hours before something freezes and ear. Four hours? Yeah. Four hours.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I don't think I'm even lasting that long. That's the minimum. Four hours, then you take a breather. You let me know if you want to come back. Your toes are frozen. Your hands are frozen. There are four hours shifts. Nobody's going to make fucking 12-hour ships to snowing.
Starting point is 00:04:55 No. That's impossible. Doing this for 12 fucking hours. What about tomorrow? What about the next day? So it's just. it's just seven or eight hours but they hired all these guys
Starting point is 00:05:03 but the dude was telling me the stories and showing me the videos of them shooting dice and then that night he went to work and I was somewhere and he goes look at this one of them got hit by a car tonight and he was laughing I was laughing they don't give a fuck you don't listen
Starting point is 00:05:18 there's a couple places you don't want to get involved there's a couple places in life you do not want to get involved you do not want to snow shovel in New York City or upper northern New Jersey. Because these motherfuckers wait you with a car and leave you there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:38 This is Hudson County. You got to assume only 54% of people have insurance. Okay? Half these Arabs and these Puerto Ricans and these third world nation Latinos. They got no fucking insurance. They buy a car like at Hudson County Park
Starting point is 00:05:54 that's for a month. And they believe it. 30 days, you have insurance. Like, they don't have insurance. So you got to have insurance. a drive in Hudson County on the fucking defensive. Geez, I know. It's like that joke, Felipe said.
Starting point is 00:06:06 We both had an accident and we looked at each other. I don't have no insurance. Me neither. I love that joke. That's so funny. Nobody's got insurance. So when you think about that fucking horse you want to get in Hudson County, think again, somebody's going to dent it out of principle.
Starting point is 00:06:21 When I lived in Hudson County, I was so angry. If you got a nice car, I just hit it. I just hit it. I just, fuck. With your car? With my foot, with a, brick. It didn't matter. Where's North Berger? You're not supposed to have a nice car. We're all losers here.
Starting point is 00:06:34 This motherfucker's showing up with a BMW on my block. I'll blast that fucking windshield of pieces. I thought that made me think about the guy, the poor guy who parked his car on your block in L.A. And you just started throwing your trash in it because he was there for a couple days. He was there for a month. A month. He threw it with your bogus. I never forget when he, because my block was by the parking ride. So people would park on my block for free. with like Mercedes Benz. You don't do that in my world.
Starting point is 00:07:06 You're not going to walk into a Mercedes Benz dealer and then leave for two weeks and park on my fucking street because you want to save the parking. I can see if you got like a beater Nissan or you're struggling, but these fucking people would put Mercedes fucking Benz on my block. Every one of them got scratched.
Starting point is 00:07:26 Under mysterious conditions. And I knew when they were leaving for Christmas break. of them would leave for Thanksgiving. And they wouldn't move that fucking car until January 12th. All the tires were flat. I bought one of those things that just takes out the guts. Yeah, it just takes out the gut.
Starting point is 00:07:44 They sell something that does that? They sell something that does that? Yeah, right in the thing. It takes out the center so you can fill it up easier. I forget what it's called. You just put it and go, it's just like the cap that's on it. Okay. I'll take the guts right out.
Starting point is 00:07:55 The tire flats. Oh. Okay? It just flattened it. You can't fill that bitch up again. And I'm going to hit you with four of them. So you ain't got enough fucking tires. So they can't even tow it?
Starting point is 00:08:05 They have to bring a fucking flabbed. This is at the end of your vacation. You want to be cheap? I'll teach you what it is to be cheap. When you bought that car, you bought it because you were a PIP. Not because you were going to go, well, if I do this, I can't eat lobster two nights a week. No, then don't buy the fucking car. But you make up, you set these rules and don't tell anybody.
Starting point is 00:08:25 You don't have to set this is something that I know. But they had no idea. If you have a call over $20,000 and you're leaving for three weeks, two and a half weeks, take an Uber, leave it at your house. But you're that cheap to take the fucking Uber too. You want to pay, you want to park on my fucking block, and then take the free bus to Burbank. Really?
Starting point is 00:08:46 Not on my watch. Really? Not on my watch. You have like your own neighborhood watch. You have to. We're part of a fucking community. There was a truck that did it. Like the last Christmas I was there, a nice truck.
Starting point is 00:09:02 The back had like one paper in the back when he parked it. When he came back, he had pounds of cat litter. I didn't even put it in the bag. I just took it down the stairs. Ten cats. That's a lot of shit. Oh, my God. Bar!
Starting point is 00:09:16 Baw! Anytime I came from a fast food store or a restaurant, the bag went right in the back of his trunk. That was, and I kept thinking, they're going to go in and get the paper and get my fingerprice. Bro, I pat that motherfucker. and then I flatten the tires one by one. I'll never forget he's out there with his uncle and shit.
Starting point is 00:09:33 Luggage everywhere. Oh, how long did you give him? Like, how long did he have before you fucking started putting stuff in there? I gave him like three days. Okay. When he wasn't back by December 28th, all bets are all. Then if he doesn't come back by January 2nd, that's when we go off. There's a new level.
Starting point is 00:09:53 That's when there's a new level. That's the fucking, the four fucking. And tires go down one a week. Every Monday. That's all you're here. Oh, my God. I still, whenever, like,
Starting point is 00:10:09 even they do it a lot in L.A. Like, people have, like, not even just a nice car, not like a BMW, but like a Ferrari. And they'll,
Starting point is 00:10:16 they'll parallel park it or put it at, like, a meter. I would, there, I would be so nervous. Well, Beverly Hills,
Starting point is 00:10:25 you know, you got no option. They've got the parking garage. Even still. And they're free. But, I mean, it's like, I'll tell you what else, my pet pee. What's that? If I go into it, like, I ain't going to say where.
Starting point is 00:10:36 I went into a restaurant. That's a nice restaurant. I saw a truck, which I already hate. Save your redneck, you know, take your redneck ass to Virginia or something. He got a fucking truck with muddle over it. Not even parked in the spot, but parked sideways. Oh, that does piss me off. That goes off.
Starting point is 00:11:00 First of all, you're dumping this with your shit. This is a five-star restaurant. You're here with a fucking truck with mud on it. Then you have the audacity of park sideways. I took the air out. And I told the owner like two days later, I told the owner, he's like, thank God that fucking idiot. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Somebody's got to do it. You got to straighten people out. And every time he does it, I'll flatten the tire again. Eventually, he'll figure out not to park there no more. I learned that for my stepdad. My stepdad in North Bergen, when he bought that house, We bought that house, that parking spot in front of the house. I don't give a fuck what the paperwork says.
Starting point is 00:11:34 That's mine. Listen, I don't know if the property extends there or it doesn't. That's mine. And he had that mental thing. When we pull up at three from the bar, if there was a car there, he parked his car in the garage, and he would just sit there by the window smoking. And at one point, he'd go out there, put nails in the tires, do that thing, break his window. We did all that shit.
Starting point is 00:11:56 I'd love to do that. Two, three nights the people aren't going to park the number. You went on giving that terrace by the time. my mother died, nobody parked in that spot. Nobody, and when people were parked there, like, hi. Not there. Not there. That spot's haunted.
Starting point is 00:12:10 I used to put potatoes in your tailpipe way before Beverly Hills cop. That came out in 85. I was pulling that shit in 77, 76. There was a girl on my block. I still talked to. Once a week. I love her to death. A mother was having an affair with a dude, a married dude.
Starting point is 00:12:27 We got pissed off. We used to put potatoes in his Lincoln Confidental. He'd come down the stairs, putting this jacket on like Tony Soprano with the tie loose from getting his dicks up and his car wouldn't start for hours. Did you ever get caught doing any of this? Then my stepdad taught me how to put sugar in your gas tank. Oh. And that's not good. Sugar and saran wrap in a gas tank.
Starting point is 00:12:51 So what, I know the saran wrap, but it expands. So, like, it feels like you have no gas. You have no gas. What does sugar do? Sugar makes it thick. Sugar may be. syrup so the whole engine goes. When you get to the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:13:09 it's about the, it's about the tax season. The good thing about the saran wrap is that's a ball buster because nobody can figure it out. You'll keep going to service. Service. My car's stolen. I'm going to get fucking killed. They take the gas tank off.
Starting point is 00:13:23 They can't figure it out. They flush the gas tank. Unless that little saran wrap, don't stick to the top. You're going to keep bringing that car back. Every fucking time you go to service. You know what that does to your mind? That makes you go, you know what? I'm not even leaving the house no more.
Starting point is 00:13:37 No. That's a mental, but you don't want to do that to everybody. That's a mental. That's at the end when you want them to die. Because sometimes they'll just stall on the highway and they'll get hit by a truck or something. You know what I'm saying? I don't know if I sound excited about it.
Starting point is 00:13:51 You're like, oh, I hope this happens. I can't believe. I'm surprised you didn't like partner with a like a mechanic. Just like make some money off of a fuck when people. Doug, you have no idea. And it's crazy. I hold those little grudges, like certain things, just like it's not going to work. And I got to let you know it's not going to work.
Starting point is 00:14:09 I don't think taking the air out of people's tires is a little grudge. Like, that's like some, like the heavy-duty shit. If I come up to you, Nick, and I go, hey, man, do me a fair from now. And don't park there. Don't park that way. You're going to go, fuck you, old man. You're going to resist and say something. When I flatten your tires and it cost you $28 in the middle of the day, you won't park there again.
Starting point is 00:14:29 So why am I getting into an argument with you? You're never going to put it to your head. You're special. Your mom told you you're special, so you can park that. And I agree with you. I have the same problem. But nobody called me on the spot. I'm calling you on the fucking spot.
Starting point is 00:14:42 You don't want to give it to me that's fine. Fuck you, oh, man, I'll kick you. Okay. Listen. Within a week, you'll be driving to work. What happened? Badoo, do, put do. The other guy that was busting my balls at the job
Starting point is 00:14:56 when I fucking took the dead mouse and put in his pocket. He never found it. And the next day, he reached in for his cigarettes and crashed the car. I don't give a fuck. You shouldn't have busted my ball. It was him and like three other guys that couldn't fight all of them. So I just sent him a fucking clear and present danger message. And they never even looked at me wrong.
Starting point is 00:15:18 As fucked up as it is, everyone dreams about it. Like, imagine if you had spent hours shoveling your car out this last week and then someone comes and takes it when you leave. You want to do something to them. that's brutal. People putting chairs outside. People are putting fucking, you know. And some people like, fuck those.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Some people just take it. Yeah. Yeah. It's brutal. It's brutal. That's why you have to flatten people's ties. Because I'll tell you, if you think changing the flat is bad, that motherfucker in the snow at 6.30 in the morning when it's cold and you're not even awake yet. You're putting the hinge and the car won't stick.
Starting point is 00:15:53 Dude, I can't imagine taking the free bus from the Burbank airport back to your old house. And I come out with my robe on drinking. coffee and I wave at you as you changing the fucking thing and I give you that look like what happened? Oh my God. Hey, did you see anybody at half? Fuck you. Fuck you, man.
Starting point is 00:16:14 Oh, my God. I ain't got no time for this shit no more like that. You should do that. You should like put up signs. Like this is, this neighborhood is Joey Diaz's neighborhood watch. I'm not going to say that. I'm not even going to say that No, what I say?
Starting point is 00:16:30 What I'm going to fucking Joey Dears. I can't say the name, but I could inflict the pain. And it's not Joey Dears. It's somebody on this fucking block. We got Chinese people on the block you can blame it on. I got a bunch of people in my block
Starting point is 00:16:44 you could blame shit on. But I wouldn't do something on my block unless they started fucking with me. Right. But the thing is, like, you have a very different interpretation of what fucking with you is. Fucking with you is like
Starting point is 00:16:56 eight parking. I don't like it. I don't blame you. It's just... Listen, man, when you park on my block and I know you live on the block, you're cool. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:08 But don't come up here park. Take one of our spots, which we all need. Everybody got enough spots for you to save $8 a day because you don't want to put your BMW. There was a BMW that I fucked up on that block. A two-door, they never came back.
Starting point is 00:17:25 Never, because I would walk in the middle street my kiot. They get in the car. They're like, I know what happened. You left the air patrol. This ain't your block. Yeah. I got in trouble once on your block.
Starting point is 00:17:39 And he was very nice, but I was just coming to pick you up. The Mexican guy. Yeah, I left the lights on in my car. And he just came out. I was like, hey, man, your lights have been on for 20 minutes shining into my bill. And I never even thought about it.
Starting point is 00:17:51 I think that's what it is. I think most people just don't even think about what they're doing to other people. No, because they're trying to save $4. So fuck me. I'll park here. But now when people go, you're going to Burbank? I'm going to park it. They're going to go, don't do it.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Last time I parked I had three flat tires and a pound of cat shit. Don't do it. Don't do it. I broke windshield, not windshields, but wipers. That's like the light stuff. That's like the second day. You broke the windshield wiper? Oh, all of them.
Starting point is 00:18:22 That's part of the fucking pop-a-p-p-p-p-and you just rip them off, wiring. the whole fucking thing. That's 200 right there. Dude, how bad did the cat litter smell after a week? Oh. Because I can't even... It just turned into chunk because it rained. Oh.
Starting point is 00:18:35 And he had to take it out like a mason. He had to get back there. Bro, that motherfucking truck never parked there again. Oh, that's... Dude, I don't know how you dealt with 11 cats, by the way. I have one cat and I'm like, this is... Ten cats in a two-bedroom apartment. And we had to fucking switch the...
Starting point is 00:18:58 the piss things 10 times a day, so it wouldn't stink. And even then, it was out of control. Oh, yeah. Because we were fucking cleaning all day. Yeah, your place didn't really small, which is crazy. The second house, Foco started peeing. Oh, yeah? Dimmie started peeing at night.
Starting point is 00:19:13 He didn't like that house. Oh, he didn't. He didn't pee at night. So the living room, you sit and go, who the fuck is pissing? Cats are so... You've always said they were interesting? And, like, a while ago, I was complaining about the cat. We're cool now.
Starting point is 00:19:27 But, like, she does stuff. I've had a dog, and dogs just like to play. Like, this, the cat gets upset if the food bowl is not completely full. If she can see to the bottom of it at all, she gets pissed. If she doesn't have a soft blanket on the couch, she gets pissed and she'll come whack you. And then the worst part is she'll just sit in the dark and just like stare at a wall. You ever wake up at like five in the morning and then your cat just staring at a wall? She sits by the doorstep, not anymore, and she looks out into the hallway.
Starting point is 00:20:01 So I read up on it, they're guarding you. Oh, okay. And when you sleep, they actually jump on the bed to see if you're breathing. They're protecting their investment. Oh, yeah. They don't fuck around cats. She makes rounds every night. That's what they do because after midnight.
Starting point is 00:20:15 She's a little security guard. After midnight, they become hunters. So they're looking for anything. They got fucking tremendous eyesight in the dark. They could be looking here. Oh, the highest shake. Yeah. And they go that way.
Starting point is 00:20:27 You can see a rat or something. After midnight, they change. That's why when you get two or three cats, come out there after midnight and watch the hum in the living room. They're hunters, and the moon affects them. Really? Yeah, they're hunters. You got to read up on this shit.
Starting point is 00:20:43 This isn't no fucking okie dope, this ain't thrilling, bitch. Listen, I'm down with this cat so much now. Oh, she knows my sleep habits, so she sit on top of the stairs. And meow for me to come up. up because she's too old to jump on the bed so she asked me to pick her up oh so i have to actually pick her up so today i heard and i'm like i'm not tired yet about 1 15 i got i'm going up and i went into the bathroom she was wide away she sits by the heater in the bathroom oh they love heaters what you're fucking doing i mean she puts her head all the way in the fucking heater you see her
Starting point is 00:21:20 mouth drooling and shit so i just come in now and go great but she was awake and i could see by her face she wants attention. She's looking at me. Every time I move and I go, great. Want to take a nap with Daddy? She should just look at me for like a minute. Great, come on, let's take a nap with Daddy. As I start going, it's fucking crazy.
Starting point is 00:21:43 She's up. She walks, sits, and waits me to pick her up. I got to hug her and kiss her for a minute. I put her on the bed. Then she shoots to my side. When I sit down before I put the sleep apnea, mask on, she always sits right here so I could turn and hug her.
Starting point is 00:21:58 and scratch your face. Oh. And scratch it until the nose gets wet. Oh, the nose does get wet. That's the secret. You got to scratch their face. Okay. Once they lick your fucking boogie,
Starting point is 00:22:09 their boogie fingers off your finger, okay. You're good. So I lay down, I put the, I sleep apnea. I put the mask on and put the blankets over my head. Do you really? So the only thing that comes out is a hose.
Starting point is 00:22:20 Yeah, I don't even want to see daylight. I've got it down to a science, Jack. Oh, my God. And eight minutes later, I could feel if she was on my left. and then I knew something was up with her. And she started crawling on. And I heard her right here.
Starting point is 00:22:34 And she starts making like faggy meows. Like she wants to talk to me. Yeah. And that means I got to turn over, hug her, and then pick up the blanket. Okay. She'll go right under. Hook the blanket down. I turn around.
Starting point is 00:22:49 I kind of scratch every couple minutes because her nose goes on my back and I can feel the whiskers tickle him. So I got to push her head back. Gray, stop tick her up and whiskers. I get up an hour later Yeah She's passed out drooling I leave, go do my errands
Starting point is 00:23:04 I'll come back upstairs At 6.30 to take a shower She's still on those fucking blankets God I have to fucking pick her up Great, go eat She sleeps like all day All day
Starting point is 00:23:14 I go chicken terriaki She loses her fucking mind Oh yeah I get chicken cut up Put some fucking Korean red sauce on it You put the hot sauce on it Sarachi
Starting point is 00:23:24 Oh That's my shit No, I take the chicken and I clean the sarachi off. Oh, okay. But she'll eat four fucking pieces of chicken and then go, wow, I'm going to bed. And that's it. The chicken puts her the fuck out. When are you getting a dog?
Starting point is 00:23:40 When this one passes away, God forbid. Oh, okay. You're going to wait for that. Okay. A dog and two other cats. Oh, yeah? Yeah, two Siamese's when they're young, so everybody grows up together. Wow.
Starting point is 00:23:51 Everybody grows up together. So everybody grows up swatting each other eating cat food, sniffing each other's assholes. you know, it's all confusing for them. I still don't know how to pet her. I'm still scared of that. Like, I'll let her, I put my hand out, and it's like, I let her rub against me. And that's where we're at now.
Starting point is 00:24:09 Always remember, before you touch a cat, you've got to put love in your hand. Okay, number two, and this is what people don't understand, but this is the cat's psychology. That cat ain't sleeping on the bed with you. He's allowing you or she's allowing you to sleep on the bed
Starting point is 00:24:27 with them. You know, I went to somebody's house about a month ago, and the mother had a cat, and she's like, this cat doesn't talk to anybody, you know. Cat came up to me. I gave her a minute. I put love in my hand. I started patting her. The motherfucker jumped and then sat on me, which makes me nervous because they start clawing
Starting point is 00:24:46 your right. Oh, yeah. And you're like, what the fuck? And I just started hugging her and scratching. Her nose started dripping. And she's like, people come over all the time. She hides. How come out here and said, sit?
Starting point is 00:24:57 with you because I know the psychology of them. Yeah. You're not in the, you're not, they're not in your house. You're in their house. Oh yeah. It's because they never leave. No. So that switches everything around.
Starting point is 00:25:12 When you think about it that way, like any, anytime you see him, like if I'm in the bathroom and she won't move and I'm like, great, get the fuck out of the way. I'm trying to brush my fucking teeth. And she won't move. You got to like push them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Like get over. So it's a difference. But once you understand all that shit about the cat and the females are different than the boys. Yeah. It's a fucking world with zone. We have a girl. And the same thing exists with dogs or if you got a penguin or whatever. I don't know, but dogs are just, dogs are dumb, I feel like, but, like, in a great way. They, like, the dogs I had, they just want you to rub them and play with them and, like, they're just.
Starting point is 00:25:50 You got like a neighborhood Jew dog. You didn't spend no money. Oh, no, we spent money. I'm talking, you get a nice dog. Yeah. No, it's, I already looked at them. The German Shepherd. How much do they want?
Starting point is 00:25:59 A lot. Yeah. A lot. Because then you got to get the good papers. You know, you got a German shepherd. You don't want like a faggy German. You want a fucking knit. You want a Hitler.
Starting point is 00:26:08 You know, you got a German Sheper. You want Hitler. If I get a girl, I'm not spading her. That means don't walk in that fucking house. What are you going to do with her? You put papers on the floor when she gets a period. Stop. Why?
Starting point is 00:26:24 Because they get, fuck, it's a different type of animal. I'm old. I need somebody to bite your fucking face on. You know? Yeah. You don't spade or female German Shepherd? And they become really possessive. Like my mom had one.
Starting point is 00:26:41 That motherfucker, you couldn't get 10 feet around her purse. Okay. When I was a kid, you couldn't get around her purse. You didn't have to go by a purse. You just didn't even know her purse was there. And you sat down and she started ground her. Is it just going to be Mercy's dog? You're going to give it to Mercy's dog so it, like, protects her?
Starting point is 00:26:55 Well, kids always want a dog until they get there. Then nobody wants to walk them. Nobody wants to clean their ass. It's too cold. It's too dark. That's my dog. Okay. You know, again, when parents, I'm going to get a dog for her.
Starting point is 00:27:08 She's going to, no, she's not. No, she's not. That little bitch only knows how to feed it and how to sleep with it. And take pictures and put in that stupid little fucking purse of theirs. They know nothing else about a fucking dog. So you're stuck with this dog. Yeah. So when you get a dog, at least you know who the fucking, who's going to be put with the strain.
Starting point is 00:27:25 It's going to be me that has to walker. the first six months you have to shit in the garage. Who are you going to pick it up? Are you going to pick up the poop? Yeah, it's my fucking dog. I just can't leave it there to grow flies. Oh. No, you've got to pick up the poop.
Starting point is 00:27:39 No, I'm going to call some Mexican people come over and sanitate my house before ice gets. Did you see New York? That's what was coming up when the snow melted. What? 800, 800 shits. Because no one picks it up. Then we just let the dog shit and then the snow melted. It was like San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:27:58 But again, listen, watch what you're fucking redneck are you? You're going to buy a great day and put them in an apartment in New York. Just to be cool. Oh, yeah, big dog. And they're all over there. It's all over New York.
Starting point is 00:28:13 You go to New York, it's the ugly of the dog to see who gets the most attention. They don't even know nothing about the dog when they purchase them. They're just looking for the attention. Yeah. You know, they're just looking for the attention. Did you ever watch Game of Thrones?
Starting point is 00:28:27 No. There was a thing when Game of Thrones was out there Because they all, like, in the show, each kid had one of the, like, the wolf dogs. So, like, a few years later, in L.A., there were hundreds of, like, at the shelters. Because everyone because of Game of Thrones got the wolf dogs, and they didn't realize that there was, like a fucking, like, it's not like a Shih Tzu. It's a real wolf. It's a wolf, yeah. And people give them back.
Starting point is 00:28:50 Yeah. That's it. That's what happens. People give them fucking back. I can't imagine. They change. Can you imagine that with a life? Like when LA, when the pandemic came, people were finding dogs on poles everywhere.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Like just to walk away from your fucking dog like that, it's just, it's just, that's animalistic. People are awful. But people get a dog for a fucking quick minute until the dog shits two times. They pick up both shits and then they go, you know what? I didn't see that in the program. I didn't think about that. I thought a bluebird was going to just come down and pick up the shit. And they'll drop them the fuck off.
Starting point is 00:29:27 And it's so sad. Yeah. It's so fucking sad that that's, the word is shallow. Mm-hmm. Like you're that fucking shallow. And then they lied. What happened to the dog? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:29:38 We gave him back to my mother because she needed him. She got cancer. No, you didn't. No, you didn't. You put them at some fucking dump in Culver City. You know, it's just. And these are the people that you see that's supposed to have class. These are the people you see with their fucking $2,000 purses.
Starting point is 00:29:57 You know, and that's how they act. So who, you know, it's terrible. At the end of the week, who gives a fuck? You look at those, guys, I'm telling, guys, I'm giving the advice. When I was, you guys' ages, I half gave a fuck. And I didn't feel good about it. Now I don't give a fuck, and it feels just fine. Because this is how you should be thinking.
Starting point is 00:30:19 If you walk around all day, well, the whales, listen, nobody, it's like the last two days on every sports, every news channel. What's the first thing they say? Oh, yeah, Iran, bombed, whatever. My heart goes out to the three heroes. Nobody gives a buck about those three heroes. Nobody gives a buck about those three heroes. Why are you saying?
Starting point is 00:30:44 Nobody even knows who they are. Just a couple of fucking white people from Indiana will go, and that's a shame, you know. They don't know what those fucking soldiers are. No. And everybody makes believe like they care. And that's why you got to take it back to Chas Pimentary. Nobody cares.
Starting point is 00:31:00 And when you get that in your fucking head in life, that nobody gives a fuck. They all give a fuck when you're having cocktails and drinks. But at the end of the day, they don't, they're so involved in their lives now, especially with the internet and appearances and what's important. You've got to have a car if you're a man. You've got to have a watch.
Starting point is 00:31:20 You've got to have 80,000. Who said this? Who says this type of shit? Speaking of that, and I don't know what's happening. Have you seen Jim Carrey? No, I don't give a fuck about that dude. Who gives a fuck? You've got a body double or something about that?
Starting point is 00:31:38 I don't think it's a body double, but his face... These people fuck around with that shit. They do all that shit on their face. Listen, I'm 63. That breaks my heart. I shoot peptides in my knee. Okay. I shoot peptides in my arm for recovery before the surgery and all this shit.
Starting point is 00:31:55 But where do you think I'm going to take a needle and stick it in my eyeball? Listen, I don't look too good as it is. I'm going to go messing with this. Half of them. When you see them, you're like, what the fuck happened to her eyes? Yeah. All of them. But if you notice, it's, and even though you know it don't look good, they still go do it.
Starting point is 00:32:15 Because they've got to be a partisan. Did anyone ever try to get you to do plastic surgery? All the time. Are you fucking crazy? I know you wouldn't do it. do it, but no one, no doctor ever was like, we can lift this and tuck that and liposuction. No, no. Wow, I'm surprised.
Starting point is 00:32:35 What makes you think I would go, you know what? I'm not saying you would do it. I'm saying a doctor. I want to stay young. Listen, I looked 50 when I was 21. Okay? I looked 50 when I was 21, like most of the kids around here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:46 We looked old when we were fucking kids. So for me to go in there now, I want to save a few years on my comedy career. I'm going to slice this. As soon as I hit the stage, Joey's gonna look like a goofball. You just lost all your credibility, the whole thing. And you don't look better. You look like a fucking Martian. You look like Lionel Richie, you know.
Starting point is 00:33:10 And I'm not saying nothing bad about him. I'm a fan of Lionel Richie. Even the girl I love. The girl who was married to the Scientologist, Tom Cruise, the blonde that's on that fucking show with the... Nicole Kidman Nicole Kidman When was Jenna Elfman

Starting point is 00:36:43 Ah, ah, ah. So what did Nicole Kidman do? She did surgery. Okay. So her eyes look kind of like creeped up. Oh, it's, I can't imagine. Jim Carrey was like my idol growing up. Because you're an idiot.
Starting point is 00:37:01 Jim Carrey, that's also true. He was good. To the third liar, liar. The mask, liar, lie or liar. Then that's it. I was done. After that, the one movie he made with the kid where he was a creepy guy, the delivery man or whatever.
Starting point is 00:37:14 And then that's it. It just got old. It was like, I don't know. I met him at the comedy store and I did work for him. No. They forget. They forget. They forget that they were one of Mitsy Shore's children.
Starting point is 00:37:31 And they forget that you've got to be respectful to fucking people, especially your proper Marines. They're Marines. We all did the same type of time together. So those people forget, and that's why they days off. Look at Roseanne Barr. She's turning into Mitsy Shore. Sounds like her, looks like her, acts like her.
Starting point is 00:37:51 It's fucking insane. Wow. I haven't seen her in a minute. She's old. Yeah. She's old. older than I am, but she's become Mitzie Shore. Yeah, Jesus.
Starting point is 00:38:03 But that, her story is crazy. Just how, like, how, how she blew up. Why do you think there is no Mitzie Shore now? Like, why do you think no, like, no club has a Mitzie Shore anymore? Because they're all faggots, dressed up by cowboys. That's why. Because somebody wants to be an assistant manager for three years, then they become manager because the manager got fired,
Starting point is 00:38:28 and now they're fucking authorities. And then you got to go on there and go, that's great. But let me show you how it's done. Because they forget, they think they have three years in the club. You got 30 years on stage, 20 years on stage, even 15 years on stage, even 10 years on stage. I know a little bit more than you do. So you're coming in here disrespect to me.
Starting point is 00:38:50 It's like when we go to clubs and there's a 20-minute video on the front. But every comic makes fun of it, but I love that you go, like, we're not playing that anymore. Because the next day I went home and told my agent, mental thought, if we play there, or there's two clubs, no more fucking video of front or we're not doing it.
Starting point is 00:39:16 No more video off front. You know what? I'll go up there and promote next week. That's all you should be promoting anyway. But for me, the city of 15 minutes and tell you who's coming in fucking June right now, you already got two drinks in you, and you had dinner in you.
Starting point is 00:39:28 You're not going to remember this. why are we doing this? May 14th, Pete Patello will be here, May and 19th, Ralphie May will be here. Hold on, let me take my fucking feather out. Yeah. And write down these dates. So, no, I'm not doing that.
Starting point is 00:39:44 I'm not doing that to the fucking people. They don't need the information. That's awesome. You put the things in the front on the thing. And it's so, it's like when Theo shot the special. When I went over there, as soon as I walked in, I was like, fucking furious. because I'm like, these people have no idea.
Starting point is 00:40:03 No idea. I'm whatever. I'm there to work, right? Mm-hmm. I drive an hour up here. I pull up. There's a parking spot. I park in it.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Walk in that fucking door. I'm not even in the fucking door. And all three you're on me. Hey, the podcast needs to be done at six. Fannie called. We need a video. We got a video. be head by seven.
Starting point is 00:40:31 No. Let me come in. Let me pee. Let me grab a soda. Say hello to you motherfuckers. I was everybody doing. And then hit me with it.
Starting point is 00:40:45 That's part of that whole job. And they have no idea. Bro, I wasn't even, I was on the street and I had five people already. You're going to go upstairs. And I'm like, really? So did. So, no.
Starting point is 00:41:00 those situations, you're the talent. You gotta go, this ain't gonna work. And they'll come back. Oh, well, it ain't gonna work. We're not doing this tonight. Once you go to take money out of that pocket, it's all over. You're not, anything they say,
Starting point is 00:41:19 then I gotta cancel the show. So now you got them over a battery. You want to do it your way? You go out there and be the thing. Give me the fucking jacket. No, no, no, no. Five more grand. No, okay. Yeah, because you open your mouth. Who the fuck are you?
Starting point is 00:41:33 You're a theater manager, you're a club manager. You know nothing about what we do. You have an idea, and I appreciate you. I have an idea what Georgie does with frames. I have an idea. I know what the fuck he does. I know what the fuck he does. I can't go into his place and go, use this.
Starting point is 00:41:48 I wouldn't do that. You just wouldn't do that shit. But that's the problem with, and they do it to all of us at every level. No matter what level you're at. As you're young, you're like, why are they doing this? You're a young comedy. I guess I got to listen to this shit.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Yeah. You know, what time is the sound check? What are we? Led Zeppelin? Me, me, me. We could do that when we get there at 745. Yeah. Everything is more work.
Starting point is 00:42:14 Like to be professional, I don't want to be that profession. There's a show. It's just the show. We do these every fucking night. You used to freak me out when when I first started and, like, the ice house would start at eight. you'd be like get me at my house at 720 we'd get fucked up and get there like you'd pull in at 802
Starting point is 00:42:35 yeah I don't like oh how many times if you got there and they come in the back and go we're gonna hold the show for 20 minutes every time so then what are we doing what are we doing what the fuck are you doing we're doing the same shit over and over again if I walk in there a quarter of fucking eight it's gonna be funny because all your rush I'm in the building, like casinos. We need you here at seven. Not a chance. Not a chance.
Starting point is 00:43:06 Like this thing I did Saturday, I wanted you there at four. What time did it start? Eight. What time did you get there? Six. That's earlier than I would have expected. That's fine. For two hours, you're going to, no.
Starting point is 00:43:18 That's just going to get me hot. I'm going to get anxiety. I'm going to start walking around. I brought a joint with me, you know. But no, I'm not doing that. That's a waste of anybody. I wouldn't ask that from anybody. Four hours.
Starting point is 00:43:30 It's eight minutes. That takes ten minutes to write down. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Why are we there for four hours? Because you want to. It's a power trip, man. We need to. You want this.
Starting point is 00:43:42 You can feel better about you. I got them here four hours. No, you didn't. I'll tell you I'll be there at four. Good luck. And then call me one time to ask me. Call me. Where are you?
Starting point is 00:43:52 I'm not going to affect the people in Philly, but always call me on the drive. You're not getting here at five. to meet everybody? Yeah, yeah, wait for me. It's 7.30. And they're still calling. I feel like you add 10 minutes for every call.
Starting point is 00:44:04 Yeah. Or you just slow down. No, I take a U-turn and start all over. It's crazy. Yeah. You know, there's a good story about Kevin Fitzgerald. And again, this is the other reason why I didn't stick to rules. Kevin Fitzgerald was a bodyguard to Bill Hicks.
Starting point is 00:44:24 No, sorry. Bill Hicks worked at Denver Comedy Works and he brought a bodyguard And the bodyguard went up to Kevin from Miss Chiro Before his second show and he goes Mr. Hicks Doesn't want you to do any of that marijuana material Because he covers it
Starting point is 00:44:39 And he didn't say it work Kevin Fitzgerald He thought about it Fuck him Fuck him I'm doing it He went up there He did the joke when he got outstage Bill Hicks came up to him and said
Starting point is 00:44:50 You're my new opener on the road Whoa I wanted to see if you were going to play along through the rules. Damn, and I would have definitely not done the joke. You're atomic. This is America.
Starting point is 00:45:05 When am I going to tell you not the fucking... Oh, so many people would... Did they say it, though? They're pussies. A lot... Everybody's a pussy as a headline. They're all pussies. Oh, you can't do this,
Starting point is 00:45:16 then don't consider yourself a headline. Say it for somebody else that doesn't mind the challenge. challenge. Then don't do it. But if you're going to get grabbed, I didn't like when you said mother because I do a bit about my grandmother.
Starting point is 00:45:32 Go fuck yourself. You and your grandmother could both go fuck yourself. You can't fuck about your grandmother. That's, because I don't know, I think, when did you have that mentality the whole time? Or it took a few years? I started getting it when I moved to L.A.
Starting point is 00:45:49 Because now I got something to talk about. Right. No, I got a like to stand on. I'm at the fucking comedy student. You're going to tell me? You're going to tell me. Yeah. I'm in there with 60 years of experience before me. They tutor you every fucking night, but you're going to tell me something different. It's not going to work. I love it.
Starting point is 00:46:08 I had a big time showcase at the South Bend, Indiana, Funny Bone. It was Michelle Walker. A lot of people don't even know of Michelle Walker. We know the dreamers. Michelle Walker is a community there. It's outside of Michigan, Indiana, a border. Yeah, because what is it? What did you? What did?
Starting point is 00:46:25 What did you? I booked a showcase there. And I got there and I walked in. It's a headliner. I hated all my life. And I knew he's going to come up to me with his bullshit, you know. We don't do this. I sell books after the show, so don't say the word book.
Starting point is 00:46:43 Dog, I went out there and fucking destroyed. Did 30 minutes on books? Didn't even give a fuck. I got off the stage like, man, you'll never work with me. again, I don't give a fuck. This is just a guess that. You think I'm somewhere in my it says I can't wait to play
Starting point is 00:46:58 the funny bone of Notre Dame? What do I give a fuck? I got a GED. What do I give a fuck about Notre Dame? The fuck out of here. I'm going to listen to what the... What comedians? You became a comedian
Starting point is 00:47:10 because you couldn't handle a day job. You became a comedian because you didn't like people looking over your shoulder and you became a comedian. So, number one, nobody could tell you what the fuck to do. That's a very tough thing. It's like opening up your own business.
Starting point is 00:47:22 You didn't open up an own business because you're going to make all this money. Some people open up business. They don't want people looking over their shoulder. They don't like people asking them where the fuck they're going. Some people love that shit. I'll be here at age with donuts. I don't know. Maybe 9.30, maybe 10.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Let's see what happens. I'll wake up. That's it. And if you happen, not that you don't do that every day. You're going to show up at age. Right. But you know what I mean? People just put this important because they got nothing in their life.
Starting point is 00:47:51 And that's all they have to focus. son. And you feel bad for a while. I'm here 15 hours a day, nine days a week. You've got a girlfriend. You ain't got a cat. I'm not going to get a girlfriend. You're half mute. You look like fucking a Martian, you know. I had a few of those in LA. This is their life. And they're so miserable. That's why they yell at work. And you're like, what do I need this for? So you open up your own business. Whether it's carpenter, you take a bump for two years just so you can work for yourself and earn yourself. And at one point, if you try to please everybody, you're not going to please them. That's crazy. You give me a joke, come over, paint that wall. I come over, I paint
Starting point is 00:48:32 the wall, but you know what? Joe, it's the edge, the molding. I'm going to do that on the house. And I do it, and the people come back, they don't say thank you. You missed the spot, so I might as well be a scumbag. Yeah. Look at those Jews I was showing you before. The IEEA Jews, you know. There's an AI rabbi that you love so much. Fucking the guy drops knowledge all day, like KRS 1. Knowledge that's important. Like, people need to see this shit. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:49:01 I have to find his name so people can go find him because it's the funniest. The fucking guy talks about right now, Americans are watching a war with Iran. Tully, doly, you're sitting there with anxiety. Meanwhile, I'm investing in this, that, this, that. The rabbi's blueprint. It's a rabbi. Every time you see him, he's in front of a different, like,
Starting point is 00:49:23 vacation house. I don't know. Whoever's creating it, it's the same rabbi, but he's, like, giving, like, I have to be honest, I feel like you're the one
Starting point is 00:49:37 who's writing this stuff for him. We both talk the same language. No bullshit, no nonsense. I don't want to hear your shit. Get to it. Shit or get off the fucking pot. That's it.
Starting point is 00:49:51 We ain't got time for this shit. You ain't got time for bleed. No. If I fucking didn't do things because of how bad I felt there, I wouldn't do anything. My knee is in fucking pain. My throat hurts today. I was around 20,000 people, two nights in a row. Friday night, I go to a kid's party.
Starting point is 00:50:05 Okay. Fucking tremendous. What happened? I took some medables. I brought my whistle. They didn't know what the fuck. Oh, my God. I forgot about that whistle.
Starting point is 00:50:13 You were just blowing the whistle at kids? Yeah. Every time I, there was some old people. Every time I hit the whistle, the whole table would jump. I was like, this is fucking tremendous. Oh, my God. What kind of kids party? 13-year-old girls.
Starting point is 00:50:29 12 girls are the thing. And then her parents, my wife, their mom, and another, we went to the fucking thing. What would happen if you went to that sober? How long would you last sober at a birthday party? Two minutes. Two minutes. I went in there stone to the gills. I hadn't taken edibles because of the snow.
Starting point is 00:50:48 and shit, I took like fucking 800 milligrams. I found one of those last gummies, and I took two of those Carmel things. And I took a coating pill for my niece, so it all hit at the same time, you know what I'm saying? I didn't drink, though. I didn't drink. I just did bonh hits like a motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:51:05 And I just giggled. The food was okay. You know, I just giggled. It was nice to just be out of the house, watch the girls. They were all fucking fucking shit. And then I went out for a little while, and then I met them later on. And there was more food. fucking
Starting point is 00:51:21 nice. Nutella pizza with strawberries and bananas and shit. I'm like, I'm not eating that stuff. No? I'm not a big Nutella guy. Me either, to be honest with you.
Starting point is 00:51:32 It's fine, but it's not. Nutella, not yokey. Dumplings? Nutella something else. And they're not bad. I can eat one of them, but I can't eat.
Starting point is 00:51:46 Yeah, it's a lot of chocolate, but it was good. And then Saturday had that thing. How was it? It was tremendous. this, bro. It was really nice to be a part of something. Like, I feel bad because everybody talks about Austin, everybody talks about L.A.,
Starting point is 00:52:01 everybody talks about the New York comedy scene. There was a nice little comedy scene in Jersey. And now we've got to figure out how to capitalize on it through the dojo and maybe through the stress factory or something because it's just a nice little comedy family in Jersey. Nobody's fronting, nobody's acting like that Johnny Gumbats, you know, whatever. So you did the roast of New Jersey?
Starting point is 00:52:22 Yeah. And did you, it was like a Netflix roast, but like everyone roasted each other and like you just roasted New Jersey? I didn't know half the people there, so I didn't roast them. I didn't have time to roast people. I'm not a roaster.
Starting point is 00:52:35 I said something about Rich boss being a real Jew. Okay. I talked about, that's a nice thing. You know, everybody was picking on Natalie Cuomo. And I know her and she's such a fucking sweetheart. I didn't want to say anything to it.
Starting point is 00:52:47 And then when I saw her, I'm like, I definitely can't do the joke because she's just such a sweetheart. sweetheart to me all the time. I really like Natalie Cuomo. And the joke, two people went up there and said she got stinky pussy. And when she drives in Jersey, the smell is her pussy. And I went up then and I'm like, listen, Natalie. I don't want to, I could be your dad. So it's embarrassing for me. But I shouldn't say your pussy's stinky. You got all those tattoos. It's more inky. It's like fucking that ink squid maranara. Oh my God. So you got good pussy. Well, I'm concerned, but I'm not going to say nothing.
Starting point is 00:53:21 And I felt bad when I said, pussy in front of her face looked at me like, no, Joe. Oh. So I just stopped there. And it was a roast of New Jersey. So what they wanted me to do was to go up there first from a perspective of being gone for 35 years. Right. What's happened? Okay.
Starting point is 00:53:38 And then go, but fuck you. Jersey's, this is why I love Jersey. Oh, okay. So for me, I could do that on my back. Yeah. Yeah, you do love Jersey. I just did a couple North Bergen things about the teachers and fucking, you know. And did anyone make fun of you?
Starting point is 00:53:53 Yeah. Did it hurt your feel? Like, that's, people ask me to do roast, and I'm like, I'll fucking get real upset. Listen, it's a roast, okay? Some people said something about me kidnapping somebody that I got more skin. I need more bone. They got two months skin from the body. You know, shit like that, but nobody, you know, there's a line of the roast.
Starting point is 00:54:16 You know, the only roast I didn't like, and I hated the guy after that, I saw him one night, was the guy who tormented Ralphie Mae that night. Oh, yeah. He told him about his kids and his wife. That's a different thing. That's when the microphone just hits you in the fucking head. You know, and that's why I never got involved in roast. I don't want to judge him.
Starting point is 00:54:35 Yeah. I don't want to do nothing because I'm not cut from that style. I know you 30 years. You want to fuck with me. Bring it. You're not lying. Right. But.
Starting point is 00:54:44 If you don't know me. This motherfucker saying shit about kidding. I don't know you. I don't know you. I don't know some guy named gags. I don't know any of this shit. Oh, I would have loved to see you throw a microphone at someone's head. No, but the funny thing was, even with the hearing aids, I couldn't hear nobody.
Starting point is 00:55:00 I was just sitting there smiling shit, like waving. Then I thought, you know, I was sitting there for a long time. I must have popped two edibles while I was sitting on the couch. I popped two of those 100 milligram carmels. Oh, my God. Dude, did you ever see Jamie Fox fucking with that guy in that roast? That's one of my favorite videos. I know that guy really well.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Oh, no. Is he okay? That guy sold the show that he put me on. He was a very nice guy. I'm going to tell you what happened. Okay. Before you're even saying anything. Go for it.
Starting point is 00:55:34 He's a sweetheart. Doug. Okay. Doug's a sweet. I just saw that about a month ago. I popped up on my YouTube. Yeah. I was like, holy shit.
Starting point is 00:55:43 I forgot about this. I always told you there's places where you belong. Yeah. And there's places where you do. don't belong. You just have to be smart enough. Even if I come to you, go, no, no, no, Lee. Come, come, come. They're going to love you. You're going to go, Joey, I don't belong there. I just don't jizz with those guys. There's no, it's Shaq. It's a bunch of black dudes that are on, and he sold the show. Nobody knows him as a comic. Right.
Starting point is 00:56:14 He found him Santhian. So he was, and that was, I was with that agent. Years ago, Jim Callum, good agent, good guy, but he gave him bad advice that day. He told him to show up. He got married. He did a couple jokes that didn't work and then Jamie Fox just started talking into the mic.
Starting point is 00:56:32 He's like, I'm really fucking up right now. Yeah. I should just leave. Now I should. I wish Jamie would have me on his movies. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:42 He was fucking leveling into him. And I felt bad it ruined this career. Did it really? I think so. I think the wife left them. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:56:51 That's, dude, getting bombing so bad that your wife leaves you is brutal. Well, where do you go from there? Look at his shirt. With the shirt he is.
Starting point is 00:57:05 Compared to everybody else then. Just the shirt alone tell you. I don't remember what kind of shirt did he have? Just like a Seism robot. Oh, okay. You got Emmett Smith, you got Jamie Fox, you got the black chick. You got all these people
Starting point is 00:57:18 that were working theater comics at the time. You don't belong that. But that, he's on. a ship now. I know I've seen him on a cruise with somebody. Okay. Good guy. Good guy. But just those things where somebody says, hey, let's go to this HBO party. You're like, you know, I got $4 on my bank account. You could fake the funk, like Jackie Gleason. I could put a five in my pocket and going there with new shoes like a Puerto Rican and a suit on with sparkling teeth. But you are what you are and they're going to recognize you. Oh, what's he doing here? He doesn't belong
Starting point is 00:57:55 here. But that's at half the Hollywood parties. If you started calling people, I'm like, why are you here? I worked on the movie for 13 days. I didn't see you one time. Well, I'm friends with the cast, North. I came to support them. No, you didn't come to support them. You came to see what you could get. There's nothing here. These are all people that work. You don't. You don't. You don't belong here. It's very tough to digest that. And I did. We think Rogan didn't invite me to NBC things all the time.
Starting point is 00:58:25 I don't need to be there. Don't need to be there. Nobody's going to talk to me. Nobody's going to want to see me. And my fucking, in a comedian's perverted mind, yeah. I'm going to go on there and cut a deal. No, you're not. No, you're not.
Starting point is 00:58:38 Look at your shoes. Look at your fucking sneakers. Who's going to cut a deal with you? You got dirt all over them. You got shoes and you forgot to polish him. Why are you even here? They look at all that shit. That's all that scene is.
Starting point is 00:58:53 If you're a black guy, You don't have dreads in L.A. now, one sticking sideways. They're not going to talk to you. But, dude, that's the fucked up thing is, I think the opposite. Anytime anyone invites me anywhere, I'm like, they don't want me there. Like, I shouldn't be there. There's places where you do belong. There's a Christmas party at the stand.
Starting point is 00:59:13 I do spots at the stand. Not I don't. Right. But I'm there twice a week. That's my party. Right. Yeah. Other comics are going to cover in the I key.
Starting point is 00:59:22 And again, you look at them like, What the fuck? Give it a breather. Yeah. Let them miss you. Let them miss you. Let them have a reaction to you. You're not even letting them do that.
Starting point is 00:59:35 And that's why I stayed out of all that shit ever. Even after the fact, Lee, tell him, I stayed out of all that shit. All of it. I don't belong there. I did the music thing where you jump with the band. Oh, yeah, the goddamn comedy gym. That's it. And they had to beg.
Starting point is 00:59:53 They had to ask you for a while. Oh, for like a year and a half. Until I said, I'm doing it, but on my terms. I'm doing my soul. That was great. That was a fun night. Because if not dog, I went to the last party I went, I took my wife. It was a showtime party for that comedy thing with Jim Carrey.
Starting point is 01:00:09 Dying up here. Dying up here. It was a Monday night. I get there, the place is a fucking dump. It's upstairs, all this foo-foo shit. They got fruit and cocktails that my daughter made them. They're that fucking week. And I'm surrounded with 80 people that I haven't seen in years.
Starting point is 01:00:29 They just get dressed up and come out for these things. And I looked at my wife. I was there for like 10 minutes ago, I read a time. We ended up going to rails for dinner. That's better. Yeah. But it was like, what are we doing at these things? We're too old.
Starting point is 01:00:43 We're too old. Look at this. It's just people talking that have no right to be here. No reason. No leverage. No writing anything. Yeah, but you're going to go meet people, but then it's going to bottom out because you ain't got nothing. So when they call you into the meeting the next day, what are you going to tell them?
Starting point is 01:01:01 I got a story. Yeah, with North Bergen, I grew up, then I don't want to hear that shit, dog, unless you know how to make money to it, add money to that. That's all they want to hear. So all that shit. But even then, like, I bet they don't want the money. Like, especially if you're there, maybe, if I go to a party and I see Quentin Tarantino, and I have a movie. Like, he doesn't want to hear my movie idea.
Starting point is 01:01:26 No, not at a party when he's coked up. Unless you give him a line of coke, and then he'll, yeah, I love that idea. Call my receptionist in the morning. That's an academy award one. The next day you call his receptionist, they're never going to call you back. No. He lost respect for you. He realized who you were in the morning.
Starting point is 01:01:43 This is a dirty coke fiend like him. Trust me. The only way they'll talk to you is why you go, oh, that's a great idea. I could get James Cobra. I get Brad Pitt for that. I'll get a little Leonardo and you're there giving him coke all night. Fuck it.
Starting point is 01:01:57 Call the dealer. I'm going to be a millionaire in three days. Keep giving Leonardo Coke, whatever his fucking name is. Call them in two days. Once the powder runs out. You think they're going to call you back? Unless they're in a pitch.
Starting point is 01:02:12 Don't call you, because it happened to me, don't call you something like a 12. Out of six months, you've been calling. Hey, how you doing? Man, where you been? I've been busy shooting a movie. Hey, can you talk to that guy for me? But then you're just a Coke guy to him.
Starting point is 01:02:26 Yeah, you're just a Coke guy. That sucks. So these are all the things. You've got to watch that. You don't know until you find out until you get involved with it. When you go to those parties, people watch you. They're dying for you to do a line of Coke. I went to a party where everybody knew the guy was an alcoholic.
Starting point is 01:02:43 Okay. And he was drinking. Everybody was waiting for him to lose his mind because he's that much of a fucking drunk. I remember people coming up to me. I'm going to stay here until he cracks. Sure enough. I left when the eye was fucking. He was looking at people, like, gonna attack him.
Starting point is 01:02:59 Fuck you. I don't need that shit. I don't. I never wanted to be, I didn't get into comedy to try to be a high society guy. I had to go to a party and walk around with a martini. So what do you do? My name is Christa.
Starting point is 01:03:13 Oh, my God. What a beautiful name. But now, and it doesn't sound like this was that kind of party. But how does it feel now to be like at like the roast of me? New Jersey, like on the fucking... I gotta be honest of you. There was no...
Starting point is 01:03:30 I mean, listen, some of those women were a little on the... You know, we only shop at Dongwitos and Beverly Hills. But everybody else was there was pretty much check. I mean, there's a new thing in New Jersey where you have to be built, tattoos, and jewelry and a nice watch. All these guys look the same. They're ugly as fuck. Go on Facebook every weekend.
Starting point is 01:03:53 You see where that girl parties. She just followed me again, that poor bass. She's 63 my age, and she drinks. Lori, whatever. You got to see the guy she hangs out with. I wouldn't take these guys to a fucking funeral. They got no game. And it's awful.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Awful with giant shirt on of the club. Come on. It's Friday night, dog. A Yankee hat on with champion. Get up. Come on. That's for fucking baseball games. This is a club.
Starting point is 01:04:23 You're trying to get a piece. a pussy and you're walking in with a Yankee hat. Yeah, look at me. Okay. The bottom line is the bottom line. Yeah. When you go to a club on a Friday night, women don't want to hear about the Yankees. They want to hear about how you're going to suck that pussy differently than anybody else stuck that.
Starting point is 01:04:41 Okay, I know any of these guys are going to suck your pussy and you're going to come, but I'm going to make you see Martians. You know what I'm saying? I'm going to lick you. My tongue spins this way. That's all they want to know. I got a 10-foot dick. and if you break it, another one comes out like a shark's tooth.
Starting point is 01:04:57 You know what I'm saying? So don't worry about it. That's what they want to hear. They don't want to have real estate. I can't wait to get box seasons at the Yankees. Yeah, this year the pitchings is going to be good. It's Friday night. Either you're going to suck my twat, give me a Coke rock,
Starting point is 01:05:11 a fucking hit a MET or Exorcet or whatever they do to jump up and down. Right. Go home. Leave me alone. Yeah, leave me alone. And we're from another cut. Like, well, I'm old school. Right.
Starting point is 01:05:24 I'm not going to give you that little, listen. Just give them. Dude, I would love. It's Friday night. I got an eight ball. That little miniskirt. I'll shove my tongue right up your asshole. And give them a minute.
Starting point is 01:05:37 And give them a minute. They got to think about the shock. Like, nobody's ever gone out to them like that. No. Everybody else is talking about, oh, my God. I can't wait. Do you have a headshot? It's going to be so beautiful.
Starting point is 01:05:46 Listen. Fuck your headshot. I'm going to stick my tongue so far up your ass. Your glasses are going to fucking melt. Either they smack you in the face, finish their drink, and grab you by the hand, and go, it's time to go.
Starting point is 01:06:03 And you'll see all those other guys, you box seats for the Knicks. Yeah, muscles. It's time to go. Do you ever get a drink thrown in your face? 19 October. On the street, October of 81. Why?
Starting point is 01:06:20 What happened? Some girl was drinking. I was friends with her. We had, you know, Swaps, a few years before. And we had like this aggravating fucking friendship. Like it was just like,
Starting point is 01:06:30 it was just not a good relationship. I liked it. We ended up hooking up years later. And now she don't talk to me. Since 1985, she has not spoken to me at all, though. Her daughter reached out to me in 2018 for Rogan tickets.
Starting point is 01:06:51 Oh, of course. I was like, oh, she's like, you remember my mom. You're like, I do. They'll have tickets for you, and then there's no tickets for her. She was drinking vodka with iced tea in it. Okay. And we were on the streets.
Starting point is 01:07:08 I was starting to get cold. She had on a North Bergen-Chilling jacket on or something. I was by Nix, and she crossed the street with her girlfriends and was all a little, a little, you know, she was drinking. I hadn't done anything. And she came up and was saying something. I'm like, what are you talking about? Something weird.
Starting point is 01:07:24 And she had something on a jacket. I go, what the fuck is that? And she looked at me. She goes, this is my new jacket. She just drew the booze at me. Oh. And then her and her girlfriends crossed the street. But she didn't see that she left a container of iced tea.
Starting point is 01:07:38 I'm of the containers. They were a little, there was no fucking glass. They were containers. Cardboard ones? Cardboard ones. Okay. She left some on the floor. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:07:46 So I took that up and she hit a vodka by, they were across the street now from Nick's pizzeria where there was a barber there. They were drinking over there. And she had her back to Kennedy Boulevard. Oh. And I went by. behind it with that fucking ice tea with my little burglar feet and I just dumped it over her head and she's like fuck you fuck you I'm like hey man you hit me fucking first all right bitch yeah I never
Starting point is 01:08:11 want to talk to you again and then you looked up a few years later nine months later she was in the sack with me that's like James Bond shit only Joey Diaz no but that never happened again we had something right but she was always like trying to You know, listen, just let me make out where you grab your teeth. It wasn't anything. We weren't doing anything. We were fucking 16 years old. But it was always like she drank and she wanted,
Starting point is 01:08:37 like she watched too many TV shows where guys and chicks have conflicts. Like you, you bought the Reese's instead of, what are you talking about? Just eat it. You know, I'm not even saying we had arguments about that. But she was one of those girls that when she got cocktails in it. Some people just like to fight. Yeah, and I didn't want to fight.
Starting point is 01:08:54 I just want to swap it and finger you. Go home. That's it. I ain't get a fight with you. We'll drink a little bit, we'll think you. I know you're not fucking nobody. I'm cool with it.
Starting point is 01:09:03 I'm not making you doing anything. I'm not going to give you a roof either. That's really nice of you. But if you think that I'm going to argue with you and then try to make up and walk you home and then on the walk in, she would start another fight. After the makeout,
Starting point is 01:09:22 another, we're in high school. You walk home to 68th in Guttenberg over mountains. and cars and fucking burglines in hills. And after I get home, I swap spit, where you got, grab your tit, now you're starting. Are you going to take me to the movies on that?
Starting point is 01:09:36 Because we're all going for the movie then. So that was too white for me. She was Italian, but she was already in the American zone. So a little iced tea. Oh, there's a lot of people I'd like to just pour some ice tea over their head. That would be great. Some women pour drinking your fat. I mean, like, it doesn't have to be a woman.
Starting point is 01:09:55 There's plenty of guys who I'd like to pour some ice tea over their head. Why poor ice team You hit him with a bottle You want to be a fag and put water on them Or you want to have a club stick and go That's what happens I would like to do that Do you ever fantasize about that?
Starting point is 01:10:11 About people I'm mad about You're mad about just what I want to Just running them all with a car Oh I have I thought about when I'm getting really mad There's like a few people I'm like if like everything gets fucked
Starting point is 01:10:22 I'm like I'm gonna kill them And then like Like that's it I'm gonna see how far I can get I have like a few people. And it's never going to happen. I probably shouldn't say this on the internet. But there's a few people who have really pissed me off.
Starting point is 01:10:34 I'm like if I lose my job, the house goes. And if my life's over, I'm like, oh, yeah, I can't wait. I just, it makes me happy just to think about it. You know, man, that shit will fucking kill you. I used to dream about all that shit. Like, I had one deal that was for sure. I was committed to this deal. nothing else going on.
Starting point is 01:10:58 And I couldn't imagine being 40 with nothing going on. So I said, I'm going to go to L.A., and I'm going to give it a chance. If for some reason I fuck up or I do something stupid, I'm going to drive home, and I'm going to stop and kill my ex-wife and a husband, and then go to North Bergen where they won't come and get me. That was the plan. That's a sad fucking plan. Yeah?
Starting point is 01:11:17 If I fail at this, I got nothing else to live for. What am I going to do? Become an engineer when you're 40? You don't have a high school diploma? What I'm going to do? Mr. Hasley is going to get me a job at the school? What am I going to do? You're done.
Starting point is 01:11:29 You're 40. You got felonies. You got a GED. And you failed to stand up. What is there to celebrate? I was just going to go kill him and just sit there with a cigarette with blood all on my face. I don't know what happened.
Starting point is 01:11:45 There's blood everywhere. And then they put you like a fucking, you're crazy. You know, that's what I was hoping for. Right. They would just say he's crazy. You know, I was going to figure out how to be fucking insane. But thank God we didn't. get to that. Thank God. That was the thing. I was like, if I fail at comedy, what am I doing?
Starting point is 01:12:03 That's it. You failed at marriage, which is basic communication 101, and you're going to fail as a comic, which is basic communication volume two. What am I going to go for volume three? There ain't none. Right. So I was like, I'm done. Whatever happens there, I'll just run reckless and they'll shoot me somewhere in Jersey City. It does. It's not something you should do, but when you're pissed off, it feels good to think about it.
Starting point is 01:12:35 Well, yeah, why are you pissed off? And that's what's, it's like, when you call a hookup, but you jerk off on the way there, and you're like, I don't need her now. Right. I already jerked off.
Starting point is 01:12:47 It's the same thing. That's what you got to think about the steps on things, you know. Well, they have things like that. Now they have like break rooms where you can just go and break shit when you're angry. That's for a fact.
Starting point is 01:12:56 You fucking people. They also got a place I go for 65 bucks. A lady will hug me to sleep. Oh, yeah, professional cuddler. Yeah, and I get there, ladies, 400 pounds with peanut butter fingers. I'm trying to fall asleep. No, that's just... If I'm paying someone to cuddle, it's going to be someone who's 400 pounds.
Starting point is 01:13:15 No, you're not. You're going to pay a nice looking blonde with big tits. Cover your eyes. You know how people put those things in their eyes that don't see? Right. I want a chick to put a tits on my eyes like that. I don't see nothing. that's what I want for 65 or not.
Starting point is 01:13:29 If you're going to cuddle with me. But how depressing is your life? If you're going to cuddle with somebody on the street? I mean, and that's a new world. And people will take a hug from anybody. Yeah. That's the new thing. Oh, thank you for sharing.
Starting point is 01:13:42 Let's give him a hug. Oh, my God, you're so brave. Thank you. When you went on the Oscars for calling out the Palestinian children, we needed that. America really needed to look at that, you know, thank God you called out the Jews for their atrocities and you know and you're like well how did this get to this are you putting me the fuck on by saying all this dumb shit I love you always think that
Starting point is 01:14:08 that someone's like fucking with I think they fuck with me it's like when you go to Texas and do comedy like on the other side of Texas okay and again a comic will go up that's not experience and they'll go before we start this show let's give a round applause for the troops I get it I applaud the troops. Why are you saying that in a comedy show? Right. Two mothers are in the back crying.
Starting point is 01:14:31 My boys in Iraq, you know. The fuck is wrong with you. Right. So there's just things that people go to that are just easy to say. And once you start watching Hollywood, that's all it is. That's all it is.
Starting point is 01:14:46 There's a lot of things like that. Like, did you watch the Olympics? It's no. I didn't waste my time. It starts over there. That's the fucking growth. If New York City catches a cold, if catches the flu, the rest of the country catches the cold.
Starting point is 01:14:59 When you start that stupidity behavior, that started in L.A. or people of that mode. When I left New York City, there weren't a lot of people in that mode here. They were the village, you know, they thought they were Archie Farty and Smawn everybody. But the rest of these motherfuckers would mug them out of heart. You know what I'm saying? So they got kept in check.
Starting point is 01:15:18 Now they're all over New York, whether it's with their stupid fucking six-foot dogs or whatever the fuck they want to tell you about why they're more special than you and why they're entitled to do this. You know, that's the world today. You know, everywhere you go. You go to a restaurant, there's a thing to take pictures.
Starting point is 01:15:36 Yeah. So you could feel like you're in Hollywood. I don't want to take no pictures in front of that. What's it going to do for me? Like, they have, like, they have, do you remember that in L.A.? They had some walls with, like, wings and there was, like, a security guard because people were coming and take pictures.
Starting point is 01:15:50 And, you had to, like, wait in line and take a picture of, like, the wings behind you? It's, you know, it's like the people who fly in to go to Pink's hot dog. Oh, yeah. And they shit blood for two weeks. Because somebody told them to go to Pink's Hot Dog. Some idiot told them to go to Pink's Hot Dog. I would tell people to fucking go there at L.A., drive by Pink's and throw a grenade at the fucking building because it's so fucking bad.
Starting point is 01:16:16 The buns, the dogs, the chili, it's all bad. Some places you're going, like, I like the dog, but the bun was kind of light. You know, I like this. There you go. I didn't like the yellow bun. It's like a yellow bun. The hot dog is one of those beef hot dogs from California. You know, it's got some tofu in it.
Starting point is 01:16:33 You know, it's like the Dodger dog. I love Dodger Stadium. But the Dodger dog, I wouldn't give it to my cat. No, it's awful. I wouldn't give it to my cat. Yeah. You know, I didn't eat hot dogs back there until we found the ballpark ones. No, my wife found something.
Starting point is 01:16:49 My wife found, and that's when I started eating them because we were making them at home. Right. But I don't eat those Jamo Cup ballpark. Fuck those things. I'm a sad bread motherfucker to the end and the other company that dooms to the end. Everything else,
Starting point is 01:17:03 I don't even want to put that shit to my lips. No, if I don't see sad bread on those motherfuckers, these Arabs that sell Sabrettes in New York, their bootlegs and shit like that. People are getting really upset with them because you'll get a hot dog
Starting point is 01:17:18 and like you'll order it, they'll hand it to you and it's like 15 bucks. Yeah. And like they're just fucking with you now. The hot dog, listen, everything, It's so outlandish in New York now. Why? The coolness is gone.
Starting point is 01:17:32 The coolness that was really New York is gone. And they ain't going to come back for a long time. Everything you see now, they're faking the funk. That is not the New York City we grew up in. It was a different state of mind. It wasn't that shallow state of mind. New Yorkers were not that fucking shallow. Well, and I know I'm part of the problem,
Starting point is 01:17:55 but I don't know how many actual New Yorkers are still there. Maybe in some neighborhoods, but in most of them not. No, they're all from Indiana and Boston. Yeah. You know, and they took away from what that grime was. Now you go to a city, you're like, it's dirty. New York in the 70s and 80s and even early 90s before Giuliani, had a little grime to it.
Starting point is 01:18:20 A lot. It didn't bother you. If you came from grime, it didn't bother you. It's just something you live with. Other people come here and they look out, we've got to get rid of that. No. That's what the city is about.
Starting point is 01:18:32 That's what it's always been about. For starters, I don't know when the change, but it's a blue-collar city. Just like Jersey. Brooklyn, the Bronx, they're really blue-collar. Manhattan always had a little flair to it. You got some stockbrokers. But what's all blue-collar?
Starting point is 01:18:49 Go around North Jersey. Everybody thinks they're high-collar. Yeah. But they're doing what your neighbor did. They're staying over there so they could save money and take the ferry every day to New York. Yeah. What ferry? The ferry's $18 fucking a day.
Starting point is 01:19:07 It is. That's $120 a week or something like that, right? Yeah, if you want to do that. Dude, I'm lucky, and I pay $3.50 a month to park in Manhattan. And that's cheap. When you really look at New York and what's going on there, as a 23-year-old, You're like, I'm going to live in the city. And you're making $120,000.
Starting point is 01:19:28 You ain't putting nothing in the way. No. There's nothing going away. When that check comes, you spend every fucking dime. That's not with New York. 120 for a single kid that's 24, 25. But they don't give a fuck. Don't go over there.
Starting point is 01:19:43 Man. We have a naked. So much fun. We could make vapor pens in the bakery. You could do that in Jersey. You can do that Connecticut. You could do that anywhere. But they just brainwomen.
Starting point is 01:19:55 Yeah. We've been brainwashed. New York always had a draw for me. I don't know what my whole life. Oh, it's always had a draw. How can you not? One minute I'm hanging out with fucking savages and the village. The next minute I'm jumping up and now with black people in Hollywood.
Starting point is 01:20:11 You know, that's the next minute I'm at a Yankee game. Next minute, it's one in the morning I'm stopping in this. They got a fucking steak that you can't get nowhere at 8 o'clock. Oh. They still got a stake over that one of the moon. I don't even think you could do that anymore. Someone told me that there's a 24-hour Cuban place. I believe it.
Starting point is 01:20:26 I can't remember what then. Oh, okay. You've never been there? In the city? Yeah, I believe it. Oh. Just to prove to you, you could still make a living on cheap food. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:48 You know, we're getting killed. People are getting fucking killed. You know, and then they want to come on TV. The economy is booming. Okay, and America, yes, it is. The tariffs. Okay, keep telling yourself that. Keep fucking telling yourself that.
Starting point is 01:21:03 People are scared to go into New York City. They don't know what they're going to spend. 35 and tall, for what? For what? I need one thing out of New York City, a good stake at that place. Besides that, I don't go in there for the city. I don't go in there for comedy. I don't want to play the Beacon Theater to make no fucking money.
Starting point is 01:21:23 The Beacon Teeter. You make 10 grand for 10,000 people because they take everything else. Right. You're fucking crazy. They're union. I don't want to do that shit. No. They're taking like 30% of your money you don't even see.
Starting point is 01:21:37 And you're like 30%. And the problem is, is when you're there for a while, you don't realize it. And then you go to Florida for the weekend or you go like to Massachusetts. And you're like, oh, things are a third of what they cost. Many times I go to breakfast and the bill came back $13 and I called a waitress, you made a mistake. How many times I call you from Denver? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:02 I tell you about the $7 breakfast. Seven nights. I don't think they have any more, but it was like... Sam's? Sam's. Yeah, it went up. But it was still like a bowl of chili, two eggs, potatoes, and toast. You could take those chili and throw it over the eggs with two tortillas.
Starting point is 01:22:18 The $7.99 and orange juice and a coffee? That's what America's forgot. Yeah. That's what America forgot. So I applaud those people that still want to save you. My friend was telling me she went for a margarine. It was $24. It was $24.00.
Starting point is 01:22:31 Somewhere in Elbridge. That's $48. That's $48. I went to the fucking garden. It was 33 for a single shot, Margarita on the third floor, 33. They wanted 43 for a double shot or something. I'm like, fuck it, I'll drink water. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:50 I'm not paying 40. And that's what I don't, that's what breaks my heart about New York City now. It's a fucking, they get you at every level. They became cable TV. Two years ago, you paid cable TV. Now, I cancel cable, but see what you're paying now. Between Netflix, they chunked it up on you. So if you pay for Prime, Netflix, Magoobee, Peacock, you know, everything.
Starting point is 01:23:13 I'm dropping 800. And then the phones. I didn't know these phones were fucking $200 a month now. We paid $34 and you had a phone at the house. God forbid you dial my, you know, $34. It's $170. You have to pay the phone. How do people, how are they getting this money?
Starting point is 01:23:31 They're going into debt. Yeah. There is no way you can walk around with a smile on your face and go, I just wouldn't pay $1,800 for an iPhone. That's low. It's like two, dude, I can't tell you. I haven't written down. Have you seen the Orthodox Jews that walk around with the flip phones?
Starting point is 01:23:48 That's what I want. I want the Orthodox Jew flip phone. I'm not spending $2,000 on the phone. You don't give a fuck about Google. At the end of the day, you're paying $2,000 so you can be cool. Let's Google, how do we eat pussy? Let's Google the best restaurant Let's Yelp it
