What's up guys?
Thank you all for coming out
at the second one in like two weeks
so we really like doing this
and thank you for coming out.
For those of you who haven't been here before,
it's not a comedy show, it's a live podcast,
and we have a great guest for you tonight.
So I'm just going to bring up the host
and the main guy, my best friend, Joey Diaz.
One more time for the main motherfucking man.
Lee Syatt, aka the Flying Jew.
People like, why are you calling that shit?
What are you calling the Flying Jew?
I don't know.
You just don't have to have a reason for fucking everything.
You know what, I'm saying?
People always got to have a reason for something.
Nah, one day I looked at him, I'm like, you know what?
He's the Flying Jew.
That's it.
That's how it goes on.
Thank you very much for coming out on Wednesday.
I know you people got a lot of shit going on, your lives.
You're busy.
Let me tell you what I've seen today.
Because I don't want to fuck around with you people and waste your time.
I want to talk to you about the absurdities that I see in my day.
So today I went to a mommy and me class with my baby daughter to swim.
All right.
Fuck it.
420 to 450.
You got to do it.
It's a half hour.
I go a little tuned up.
I ain't going to lie to you people.
I smoke a couple hits of the bong.
I put like a shirt and listerine.
And you got to do what you got to do when you hang out with the baby and the moms.
And my wife went today, too.
But that's not the fucking story.
So we get there.
I went Monday.
And it was great.
guys, it was fucking great. You sing songs.
There was a white dude with a Mexican baby.
Fucking very rare.
Very rare.
Baby's name was Coco. Very nice.
And there was another mom.
She didn't show on Monday, but she showed
today. So today I'm in the fucking pool
and all of a sudden, you know, the white dude
with the Mexican babies there, me and my wife
and our baby, and all of a sudden I see
this chick come in the pool. Whatever.
You know, six, seven, good-looking mom,
you know? I like a good-looking mom.
You ever see a baby with an ugly.
fucking mom it kills you.
But sometimes you see like a kid,
the mom's banging, you know, the boobs are in place,
everything's banging, you know.
You're like, mom's been going to fucking yoga.
I like that shit.
And this mom was cute, very cute.
And I seen her flip over, you know,
like when you go backwards, like under the fucking stairs, right?
And she had a big Harley-Davidson tattoo on her back.
So I knew the bitch was for real.
You know, I knew that she had been passed around
by some bunker, motorcycle gang,
and somebody, you know,
spermed on her neck.
You know, they, you know, those fucking bikers,
they will fuck the shit out of a woman.
They don't fuck around.
Bikers will fucking put cookies in your pussy.
They'll put bottles.
They don't give a fuck.
They'll fuck you with the cookies in your pussy.
I know a biker.
Trust me.
He used to tell me all this disgusting shit.
So, uh, she turns around, very cute woman.
Tattoos on her tit.
You know, like all this Christian slum.
like you know the book of fucking John whatever and then she goes come here to her son
Riley whatever his fucking name was and a bush flew out from under her fucking armpit I haven't
seen that since 1995 Boulder Colorado North Boulder with those fucking stentsy women with the
fucking mountain armpit listen and don't get me wrong I love women I was raised by a woman
a single mom she had girlfriends I love women you know
Never, ever, ever, ever in all your fucking life.
See a picture of me hanging out with five guys watching a football game.
That is not my idea of fun with five stinky guys eating popcorn.
This is fun, smelling each other's feet.
I don't like that shit at all.
I don't even like Hooters.
I don't want to go to bars.
Put me in a room with four fucking bitches.
And I'm happy as fuck.
I don't even have to be fucking them.
I don't even care if they're attractive.
But I'd rather be with four women.
I'm just one of those type of dudes.
that much rather be around women than...
So before I get into this, I like women.
But you got to shave your fucking armpit.
You understand me?
That's just godliness when it pops out of there.
You want to trim it and have a fuck-up, like, three hairs to make your point.
I'm fucking in.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm in.
I got hair growing behind my thighs.
I'm 50.
It happens.
I trim it.
I don't want a bush coming out of my fucking ass.
Like I got a rabbit tail.
You know what I'm saying?
This bitch had a rabbit tail coming out of her fucking armpit.
Who fucks?
That's that. You're sucking that tit and you get hit in the head with a fucking, with black hair.
You know what I'm saying? Like that armpit fucking afro. It's like a little afro hitting in the fucking head.
Who sucks that nasty fucking tit? What if she's sideways and the hair's laying down her fucking tit?
Like a fucking tentacle. You know what I'm saying? Like this shit I think about when I
You know why I go see a hypnotherapist? I always think one step ahead. I was always thinking about like her fucking hairs were just gonna reach out.
and grabbed me around the fucking neck like 50,000 leagues under the sea and put me in the
fucking six foot range at the YMCA.
This is what I live with people, so you think you got problems.
Arm pit, and I like a lot of hair, listen, I told leaders and he's like, well, you like women
with Harry Pussies, big fucking difference.
Big difference.
I once about 13 years ago, I made a mistake when I fucked around with a dear friend of mine,
a Jewish girl.
She had the biggest fucking bush.
But it was long, fucked up, like there was leaves in it and shit.
Like, it was one of those bushes, like one of them.
And I fought through it.
It didn't smell funny.
Nothing.
I just ate that pussy.
You know me, I eat anything.
I don't get a little.
I'm like Mikey.
I'll eat that motherfucking monkey.
You know, but it's just a lot of hair.
It's long.
It's in your mouth.
I got to lick it and it was fucking.
I don't like that absurd.
That's absurd amount of fucking hair on your pussy.
We don't need that.
But a little like bozo hair above the fucking noodle.
just so you can sniff and scratch and grab onto, you know,
there's an earthquake, you got to grab onto something, right?
That's why I don't like no-gi jiu-jitsu.
You can't grab onto something.
It's like a fucking ghee.
I'm grabbing onto that pussy, you know what I'm saying?
I'm just talking to people from the heart.
I hope nobody gets offended here
because you're a good audience and shit.
But anyway, enough is enough.
Let's bring up my main man, the producer of this show,
Mr. Lee Syatt, the flying Jew.
Fucking Lee Syatt.
What's happening, little brother?
Thank you, guys.
Not much, man.
Tell me something good, what you do today?
I worked, but I was talking to my girlfriend on the way here about,
sometimes you give nicknames to people you've dated,
and the hairy pussy thing got me thinking,
one of the first girls I slept with in, knowing,
one of the first girls I slept with in Boston when I went to college,
we got drunk together one night,
and it wasn't even like Harry, like you like where they trim it.
It was like they just left it.
And like, this was me like five, six years ago,
And you know how I am now?
Like, she just opened up with I want to do anal sex.
So, like, I freaked out.
But then, like, her nickname with me and my friends for the next four years was Chewbacca,
because it was just, like, it was fucking, it was unruly.
It was gross.
I hated it.
Fuck you.
I was, like, right out of the suburbs in Boston for the first time.
And that's the first time you've seen a hairy, fucking, all-out, savage.
I had seen, like, trimmed a little bit.
But this one, she was Jewish, too.
She just didn't do anything.
No, they don't shave.
And she didn't shave.
I've shaved it like since day one.
Like it was just left there.
Like usually people like trim the side burns and shit.
You know what I'm saying?
You want to have your hair all fucked up.
That's fine.
You shave your neck, you know, you trim a bunch of shit.
But you don't fucking just let it grow like wild like that.
But hey, whatever.
To each is fucking on.
You know what I'm saying?
I just got to tell you people something, all right?
Who's fucking talking?
Who's fucking talking?
Oh, I'm sorry
The fucking door is open and shit
People talking over here
All right, anyway, right
I just want to tell you people
This is my commitment to the church
Of what's happening now
I'm gonna tell you my commitment
To you motherfuckers
Because I just remembered
In San Jose somebody gave me four quailudes
The same bats that made me
Lucy Snore Bush's pussy
So one that I was home
And I did one by myself
I didn't nobody's pussy.
I just sat there.
But I was on a bunch of edibles,
so I didn't judge it.
So tonight, when I got Dunkin on the podcast,
I said, let's take a quailute
and do the podcast.
Well, I took a quailute, motherfuckers, all right?
So we ain't fucking around here tonight
because that's my commitment to this fucking show.
You people drove to Pasadena,
I take a quailout.
That's how I do it.
That's how I do it, all right?
So fuck it.
This might turn crazy.
I might pass out
because I haven't had an edible
in fucking three days.
Yes, you have.
I had one Monday morning.
But that's three fucking days for me.
It didn't even hit me.
Let me explain something to you.
Let me tell you why I stopped eating them.
Because I ate 170 milligram pretzels
and 250 milligrams of a fucking goomy bears.
Oh, that Monday.
That's Monday.
At 6th during the morning.
And nothing happened.
When you eat 400 milligrams of T.
A T.H.C.
On a Monday morning at 6 in the morning
and nothing happens, it's time to quit.
It's time to...
I said, fuck it.
I went home and that was it.
I haven't eaten an edible,
and I don't want to eat no more edibles for a while.
So I had these quailutes sitting there,
so I said, fuck him.
You know what I'm saying?
They ain't doing nobody good in that desk.
I still got Vicodin at the house.
I don't take from a root canal.
I still got Vicodin from my knee surgery.
Do you like that?
I have friends who, like, addicted to it.
No shit.
That's why I don't...
What does it feel like?
That feels terrible.
Viking is like a shitty...
haze you go into, you know, you get surgery, you're coming down off the fucking malucca juice they give you.
So you really can't judge, and that's where it starts.
Right there, the doctor gives you two Vicolins and you pop them both because you don't want to feel that pain.
And then by the time you get home, you stop at the pharmacy and you get more and you find.
Let me tell you something, you crazy motherfucker or something.
I had a fat ball in my neck in 2004 or five.
Just a fat thing came out of my fucking neck.
And I swear to God, it just wasn't like a hand.
or something like that.
It was a ball that was under the east over here.
And whenever I would do jumping jacks,
while we'd get accelerated,
while I would get agitated with somebody,
the ball would go whoop, woo, woo, who, who.
It was like that thing,
and the little rascals,
when they made the cake for the mother.
Boop, broop wow,
it was the same fucking boop wall, right?
I'm not kidding, you guys.
So I finally talked me into going to the doctor,
and I went.
And this is how fucked up I was, guys.
I never even like to tell people
these stories. So I went to the doctor
and they said, oh, we're going to have to surgery it out.
And January 30th.
So he said to me, listen, you're going to
have to stop doing drugs. I go,
can I smoke pot? And he goes,
I wouldn't, 10 days before.
And I go, Doc, I'd like to do some Coke from time to time
too. And he goes,
don't do it 30 days before. The guys,
I fucking stuck to it.
Like, I was going to kill myself.
Wait, you stopped for 30 days? I stopped for like
26.
So why did he go back on after that?
So the surgery came and I go to see the Sinai
and they take the fat ball out
And I remember like the night before
Getting up at like 2 in the morning
And calling my Coke dealer
And going, listen, I'm going into surgery tomorrow
At fucking 6 o'clock
They're going to let me out like a 12th
No, I go they're going to let me out like a 5
I was like the godfather
I want you home at your house at 445
Because I'm going to come by and just pick up some shit
All right
And he was like, what are you talking?
I'm talking. How can you have surgery and do coke?
I go, trust me, we're going to make this work.
So the next day I have the surgery,
and I wake up at 6 in the morning,
but I wake up in recovery at 10,
and I'm fucking, I go, they did the surgery,
yeah, let's go. I got to get hot.
It's been 26 long
motherfucking days, you know what I'm saying?
Even Noah couldn't do these fucking days right here.
I go, fuck this. And they're like, Joey,
and I told them, like, one time.
Like, I got to go.
And they thought I was playing around.
Well, you'll be okay.
Honey, get the fucking car.
You think I'm kidding you.
And my wife knows I'm about to throw shit in there.
And I'm putting my pants on with the intravenous tubes in me.
I'm putting my pants on.
And they're like, where are you going?
The nurse has to come check.
I ain't got time for the nurse.
I haven't done the line in 26 days.
You took the fat ball out?
It's time to fucking party.
You understand?
I ain't even lying to you, motherfucker.
This is how sick of the mental I was.
They had stitches on my thing with that surgery tape,
like going like crosses, like a skeleton bowl.
I fucking, on the way home, I broke it to my wife.
I go, we got to stop at the guy's house.
And she goes, for what?
My wife didn't know I did coke, but she did know.
And she knew what this guy was to me.
She knew he was my Coke dealer.
She knew he sold Coke, and she knew I went to his house eight times a day.
So eventually you got to figure it to fuck out, right?
So I go to her on the way home, I drop it.
I go, listen, we got to stop at the weed store.
And we got to stop at Don Sleazy's house.
And she goes, no worries.
And she goes, why are we stop?
And I'm like, I gotta get a book.
And she goes, I got books at the house.
What type of book is?
I go, he's got a special book.
I've been waiting to read it for a long fucking time.
26 days.
That's how long I've been waiting.
And I swear to God, this guy gave me a Coke rock.
And I went home, and it was 12 o'clock when I got home, maybe 1.30 and he had, something
like that.
And I remember looking at my wife going, are you tired?
Because that's how I said.
That was my wife's code for me to tell her.
She had to go to bed.
because I needed to do coke.
I would go, you're tied, you look tired.
You should go to bed.
And it was like, one third.
She's like, no, I'm not tired. Why?
And I'm like, oh, nothing.
I said, I don't give a fuck.
I'm doing a line of Coke.
And I remember doing like a line
and feeling like the stitches opening the fuck up.
Like doing like a...
And feeling like a little blood come out of my neck and shit.
And I said, wow, wow, I can't.
This is my addiction.
But fuck, I finished the gram.
I didn't bleed out.
We're still here.
And that's all that matters.
You know what I'm saying?
Coming to the stage, my main man, Duncan Trousel, ladies and gentlemen.
In fact, it was funny because the day I had that neck surgery was the day Duncan gave me a great book.
We met that night.
Like, the next surgery, I'm out at 8 o'clock behind El Camadre in my car.
He gave me the book, the source, not the sorcerer, but the...
Oh, the alchemist?
Was it the alchemist?
I got a lot of weird books.
The right of a Gita?
No, no, it wasn't no Gitas and Hindus.
This is about the fucking guy that went through space
and a cowboy, like a fucking evil cowboys type guy.
Shit, man.
I wish I remembered.
I want to read that book.
And I gave you the breadstrips.
I gave you the breadstrips that night,
and you gave me the book, and I gave you, I don't know.
You destroyed me with those breaths.
Oh, please.
What's going on, buddy?
How the fuck are you?
I'm doing great.
Give a round of applause.
Great to have them out, man.
Thank you.
You know, it's weird.
I've been trying to get him on and out of the house.
And, you know, he's back on his feet again.
He's doing stand-up.
At first, you were like, I want to take a breather.
Yeah, I had to take a breather.
I didn't feel now about the stand-up.
Well, I mean, I love the stand-up, but I'm trying to work on new material.
And the problem with working on new material is it's not going to probably not going to do that good in the beginning.
So that means that you've got to deal with bombing a little bit.
I'm sick of all my old material.
I don't want to do any of it anymore, but it's all I've got.
So that's what's been keeping me from getting back on stage
because I know I can go on stage with my old set, which is fine,
but I want to do news.
It's a whole mess.
Flying Jew, remind you of anybody?
We went to San Jose about a month ago, and I saw him do that,
and then we were at the Ice House about two weeks ago,
almost completely different, and you're already throwing it away, right?
No, no, no, no.
What happened was I had the basis of the joke.
Well, it changed.
It was like completely different.
And then when we came here, it changed.
But I said to him on the way home, then I go,
I'm so happy that this weekend's over.
I never want to do this fucking material again.
That's it.
And he was like, what are you talking about?
Explain to the people when you tell somebody you don't ever want to do that fucking material again.
Yeah, it's like, you know how sometimes you'll put on a shirt that you've owned for years
and for some reason?
You're like, fuck this shirt.
This shirt is.
why did I ever wear this horrible shirt?
And you don't ever want to, it's a very similar thing
with stand-up. And then a lot of the type of stand-up
I like doing is I like talking about stuff that's happened to me
and figuring out a way to translate that your mom died
and you got one of your balls cut off in a way that's funny.
And it doesn't make it seem like you're pandering
or trying to make people to laugh at you just because
something bad happened to you, it's very tricky.
But there's a lot of funny stuff in those experiences, a lot of funny stuff.
It's just coming up with a way to talk about it.
And that's kind of where I'm at right now.
It's working that out.
I didn't want to even go there.
I mean, you had a kind of a hard year, however you want to look at it.
Yeah.
We had a couple.
It's like I ran over a gypsy baby last year.
And I got to tell you guys something really serious.
I hope you guys don't get offended.
death is never funny.
The day of.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
Until a couple days later
when you think of a joke
and you say, God, forgive me.
You know, and it's funny.
I got left back for being a fucking moron
in the seventh grade.
I found love.
The chick showed me a pussy
and I went fucking ape shit.
I couldn't think.
I couldn't focus.
I quit karate.
I was ready to become a doom
day prepper, right?
So I never told my mother.
Guys, I never told my mother
I got left back. I would fucking
reprint the report cards
to say eighth grade. And she
would go, how come you're walking that way? Because I would
have to walk a certain way in the eighth
grade, because she thought I was a freshman in high school.
But for some reason,
in the back, and I got to be honest with you guys,
I said, hell's going to be loose
in my house when I'm a junior.
My end of junior summer,
I'm going to have to go tell my mom the truth.
She's going to say, what are we going to do about college?
And I'm going to go, I got left back, you know.
But I just kept putting it off.
And I would get the guts to say it to her.
I would always go out and I'm going to tell her at the end of the summer.
I'm going to tell her.
And what happened one day?
I wake up in the middle of night and I find my mother dead on the floor.
And I swear to God, when I touched her, she was whatever cold.
Her arm was purple.
And the first thing I thought to myself at that time was like,
I knew this bitch would never find out.
I got left back.
That's the first thing
that came to my fucking mom.
Here's my mother on the floor.
Dead as disco.
And I'm already cracking jokes in my fucking head.
And then I call the ambulance, you know,
and I go, hi.
I think I found my mom.
I think she's dead.
They're like, how do you know she's dead?
She ain't breathing.
Her arm's purple.
And then they're like, okay, you know,
wait there until we get there.
And I remember looking at her going,
fuck this ghost.
and I ran outside, and I waited for the ambulance outside,
because I wasn't going to be in the house with my mom alone.
That motherfucker might get up.
Like, fucking...
You know, at that time, I was into that Alfred Romero,
you know, neither living dead, whatever, that fucking crazy.
So I kept thinking, this bitch is going to get up like that helicopter scene.
Remember, when the black guy got up,
I chopped his head off and shit and daughter the dead?
So the other night, you know, Duncan and I were having a conversation on the phone,
and he told me that, and I said to him,
you know, Duncan, enough enough.
I told him that little left back story, and I go, I guarantee if you really think about it,
you might not be prepared right now.
There's always some type of humor in death.
Yeah.
Is that the wake?
Absolutely.
Yeah.
No.
Yeah.
There's a lot of funny stuff about it, but people, you know that thing in stand-up where you make
road bumps for yourself, and there's certain jokes that if you do, it's an automatic road bump.
It doesn't mean you shouldn't do it, but there's like an extra bit of energy you have to expend to make it funny.
That's what it is with death, which is really weird to me because it's, like, every single person is going to die, but somehow you're not supposed to talk about it on stage, or when you do, it's really weird and upsetting to people.
It's a thing people haven't really considered fully, or some people don't want to be reminded of it when they're at a comedy show, that they're going to die.
And everyone they know is going to die.
They don't want to think about that
even though that's one of the fundamental truths
of human existence.
So figuring out a way to make that
funny is tricky.
And I don't, and also going,
I'm past the rebellious point
where it's like, I don't give a fuck what they think.
You know, if someone in the audience,
if there's people in the audience
who have someone has died recently,
I don't want to make them have a bad night.
You know, so if I do come up with one of those jokes,
I want it to be really, really, really funny
and kind of like the joke you just said.
That's a very, that's a funny, that's a funny joke.
And it's true.
I'm not lying.
It's true.
But I got to tell you guys something else.
I didn't say that 10 years ago to anybody.
I didn't have the chops and the confidence to say that on stage.
That's where that's the secret of talking about death.
Right now, it's a throwaway joke for me.
It wasn't even a real joke.
It's a situation.
When I touched her arm, I'm like, woo.
She's never going to find a thing.
not about left back.
I didn't write that.
That's the truth.
But 10 years ago, if I would have told you that offstage
and you said to me, go do that on stage right now,
I would have looked at you and said,
fuck you're fucking crazy.
Because I didn't have the chops to it.
There's a certain confidence you have to deliver that type of joke
to let the audience know they're going to be okay.
Right.
Because that is the truth.
That's the truth.
That's the truth.
To let you know that, yeah, somebody just died
or somebody might die in your face.
family or somebody's going through a disease right now.
You know what?
The truth is they're going to die and you need to accept it.
And there's going to be something funny at the fucking wake.
Yeah.
Wake's a fucking comedy show without the admission.
You follow me?
Wakes are a comedy show without the admission.
Not my mom's wake.
Really?
So there was not one thing that you looked at and go, look at this crazy motherfucker.
No, it was my mom decided, my mom decided, uh,
right before she died, like within months, a month before she died,
she decided that she wanted to be buried in the Tibetan style,
which means that the body lays out for three days straight,
and she wanted to have it in the house.
And so me and my brother were like, fuck that.
There are sun windows where she wants to be put.
And that means that her body is going to start stinking really bad in like a day.
Yeah, really fucked up.
And then so she ended up having it at,
she was a psychologist,
and she ended up having it at a client's house.
And that's when I realized that my mom was a cult leader.
She had a cult.
No joke.
I'm not even joking about that.
Like she had a group of people that were like surrounding her body
like she was Marlon Brando in Apocalypse Now.
Very similar to this.
that. And it was a really weird,
it was a very strange experience
because I knew she was charismatic
but I didn't realize that she'd gathered
this cult together around her.
Now, the cult
were her clients.
What's that? The cult, I don't
mean to say the cult of people
that were around her
were her clients, correct? Yeah, I don't know
who the fuck they were.
They were her clients. They, you know, she was a
psychologist. Yeah, yeah. I know.
I don't. They depended on her. She was Dr.
and they were their Tony Sopranos.
Yes.
Okay, so that's what happened.
But it was very intense.
You know, I appreciate you guys laughing at that.
But that is stuff that I'm trying to work out.
Also, I don't want to be one of those shock comics.
You know, like, you'll see comics who are like,
yeah, fist in my grandma, and pulled a turd out and smoked it.
I don't care.
I'll say anything.
That shit's so annoying and boring to me when comics are trying to.
Thank you.
That stuff's so annoying and boring, too,
when you know a comic is intentionally trying to prove to you
that he'll say anything.
There's nothing off limits.
I don't want to be like that either.
I just want to articulate the truth that happened to me in a comedic way.
It's very tricky, man.
Well, for people who don't know,
you did a podcast with your mom right before she passed away.
So, like, how, for you too, Joey,
how is it different, like, comedy?
Joey, you talk about anything on stage, really.
but like talking about that on comedy versus on the podcast
and like what was it like
because now ever since I listen to that podcast
every time I talk to my mom on the phone I kind of think about it
I mean it's kind of fucked up
but it was a really intense podcast
so yeah that was very intense
well you know man it was like
it's part of the problem I think
and the reason people are still hung up is they don't
they like to forget that they're going to die
and they like to forget that their parents are going to die
and also if you've managed to really teach yourself
or to push yourself away from the knowledge that every person that you love is going to die,
then you can become a bit, you can really start taking them for granted and become callous,
and it's really hard to be, it's really hard to not have compassion when you fully realize
the person you're with is going to only be there for an impermanent amount of time.
It's almost like you have to delude yourself into thinking this person's going to be around you
forever to treat them like an asshole.
Because if I could go back in time and, like, you know, tell myself,
hey, what the fuck are you talking to her like that for?
She's not going to be around here permanently.
You can't be an asshole like that.
Yeah.
I would.
But, you know, I can't because I, you know,
so we all get into really very callous situations with our families.
And that comes directly from allowing ourselves to pretend that they're immortal.
Yeah.
I had a fight with my mom.
Like, right around New Year's, we didn't talk for, like, two days.
And I ended up calling her just for that reason.
I'm like, what if, what if she passed?
Because she's almost about 60 right around there.
I'm like, what if like that happened?
And I just couldn't do it.
Like, Joey, what would you do?
Like, have you ever thought about like if you had like your mom on a podcast?
Like or anything like that?
What, the ghost of my mom on the podcast?
I'd be a fucking millionaire.
That's what happened.
Thank you, Joey.
You got Brad Pitt?
I got a dead fucking lady.
What the fuck have you done with your life, bitch?
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, you got a fucking ghost on your podcast.
I have, I was one guy that I was spoiled.
And I didn't treat my mom like shit,
but I didn't pay the attention that we, none of us really do.
Because nobody in this fucking room
thinks that their mom or dad are ever going to fucking die.
You know, go to the store, fuck you.
I'll go later.
You know, vacuum, I'll do it later.
Take the garbage out.
You know, there's all these little things.
things that you never think about while you're doing them.
When my mom died, it was a culture shock
for me. I was 15. I look at kids
today, and I always ask their parents,
how old is your child? Oh, he's 15. I look at this guy.
I go, he couldn't handle what I handle
at that age, you know, but
I have a problem with
people, like I always tell people.
And you don't want to sound like a grandpa
to call your mother, because when she's
gone, it's over. It's
fucking over. It's fucking over.
You have no idea.
it's something different.
I'm not going to tell you,
you're going to stay at home and cry and die,
but it affects you every two or three days for five minutes.
And you know what the thing is?
You should have done more.
Yeah.
You should have done more for her.
You should have done more for yourself.
You should have done more for your family.
That's a horrible way to live.
That's a horrible.
That's why I always tell people.
Can you imagine if I never tried comedy after prison
what I would be like right now?
I would have shot somebody right now.
Not doing what your heart wants you to do.
I would have shot somebody right now.
You know, not trying something.
Being 55 and going, fuck, I never tried that.
You know, so the worst thing in life is regrets.
Your father, you know, they're cool.
Grandma and grandpa.
They're cool.
But fucking moms is solid.
Moms has come through for every motherfucker in this room one time.
You know what I'm saying?
Moms are solid.
So you got to play the card right and you got to eat the shit and drive them today?
Yeah, just deal with it.
They might, this does not mean that your mom is not an asshole.
Yeah, no, no, no.
Yeah.
Your mom may very well be an asshole.
You gotta shut them down from time to time too.
Yeah.
I used to have this little girl, used to come over and let me suck a titty's and think of her.
You know, you know like when you're 13 and somebody does your favor.
She was a cute girl when she'd come over and let me finger and suck her tetties and you know shit like that
She never let me fuck it, but fuck it I was 13. I wouldn't let nobody fuck me either
13
I didn't think a finger me and feel her pussy through her jeans and my mom knew this and it tormented my fucking mom to no end
Leave the door open leave the door open
Fuck you fuck you
Leave the door open until one day I got caught playing hooky with the girl
My mom went in her backyard and called that girl's mother and her every night
name in the book in Spanish.
Hore, puta,
cocksucker,
and they were Cuban, you know.
So,
I always knew mom was an asshole,
you know, like for doing that that day.
But what are you going to do?
They're your fucking mom, guy.
That's right.
And you can, and,
and.
That's right.
It's true.
All this, man, I feel like so
we, I hope I don't seem,
I feel modling and luxury.
I don't mean to seem like that at all.
I think it's a,
Your mom is like a, you know, your mom, this sounds really weird, but she can be like a bench press that you can exercise love on.
You know, like it's not easy.
It's really hard to express love to somebody who's probably maybe tried to fill you with bullshit about Christianity or is like terrified of drugs or is, has a lot of like really bad ideas that came from her parents.
Because what happens is, what it is, is a very long time ago, like 100,000 years ago or 200,000 years, and we descended down from trees, we were actively being chased by bears and tigers.
And, like, it was, and you, and so you spent your time in a constant state of absolute terror and horror.
Like, right now, right now, we're okay. But back then, you had to worry about quicksam pits.
I was like volcanoes exploding and destroying your village.
That's a lot of fear.
And that fear got transferred because when you have a kid in that kind of environment,
there's no coddling the kid.
You sit them down and you're like,
you got to fucking watch out for snakes, man.
Because they will fucking kill your ass.
And they're all over the place.
Not to mention tigers and giant eagles.
You have to be careful.
Careful.
And quicksand.
And quicksand.
Well, that's fear, and that's useful fear that gets pushed into the kid like a little
ball of energy.
And then that kid, after that kid tells his kid the same thing, and that kid tells his kid
the same thing.
And that ball of fear travels through time from one generation to the next to the next to
the next.
And maybe there's no more eagles or bears, but the energy of the fear is still there.
And that's what part of how your parents raise you is they give you this little burst of
of ancient terror.
And you, that's what it is.
And you can't blame them for that.
You can't then think that they're fucked up
or they're horrible people.
They were just transmitters of this survival energy
that's been going on forever.
So you gotta forgive them for scaring the shit out of you.
That's the first step.
And then once you do that, they can be a little easier
to deal with.
And when you hear the fear in their voice that's so annoying,
when they try to control your life,
you know that that's just,
that's just them showing you love in a different way.
You know, it's so funny that my mother did not install fear in me,
but I saw that in the airport about two months ago.
I was sitting there, had like a delay,
and I was watching all these families.
I could see the kids that were scared
and the parents that were just as scared.
And you know what, you see them.
And you're like, look at that.
And you can see that fear is passed down.
You know, they're at the house.
fucking Diane Sawyer
going, I told you.
I told you that fucking
that fucking ride
that great adventure would go down eventually.
Yeah, right.
I told you that to ride the plane, they go down.
Yeah.
The train, look.
Don't go out at night, drunk kids.
And next thing you know, your kid,
after it's subconscious, he's fucking scared
to debt. What's he going to do? He's going to get
the safest life possible.
Safest. 2.2
miles from the house to work, a gym, a girl that's been tested.
Every time he goes out with a girl,
excuse me, before we take this to the next level,
can you get tested?
How is that a bad idea?
Fuck that.
Gotta go commando is shit, you know what I'm saying?
You gotta live your life, you gotta try shit.
How would you feel for girls that you need to get a blood test?
You say, suck my dick.
It happens to me every time I start dating.
Are you serious?
Yeah, girls, yeah, look at me.
A blood test?
Not a blood test, but when you start dating, yes, when I start date, when you start, like, when you start deciding it's time to constantly bear back, don't you want to know that you're not getting injected by the Grim Reaper?
I just close my eyes and go for Brooke, fucker.
You know, I just, I just, listen, look at me.
Personally, I just close my eyes and hope I make it to a minute.
That's all I'm focusing on.
I know I can't get hit the hiv in under two minutes, so.
I mean, you know, your dick's got to be in there for like eight minutes,
bumping and grinding and shit.
I come in a minute.
I ain't getting nothing from these bitches.
I might get like chlamydia or a crab or something, but I ain't getting, I ain't getting nothing.
It takes me a minute and a half to come.
I'm just focusing on breathing and the island of serenity and, you know.
That's my hypnotherapist.
You want me to go to the island of Serenity
when nothing bad happens to me.
Yeah, well, I don't know, man.
I mean, I guess, I don't know.
Did you like that rude?
The lewd hit me, you know.
Listen, here's what I do
whenever you give me drugs.
All right.
I cut them in half, and then I cut that half in half.
Take another half to the half?
No.
Okay, fuck it.
This is so good to see,
because people who listen, every morning,
he tells me, take another bite,
take another bite, and I always end up saying yes.
And he always says, no, you're the only one who says no.
Everyone says no to you.
Because you eat this one, you eat the strongest shit in the world.
Brian from the jump, I can, I got to go to work.
What work?
What work?
Something that you can't take 400 milligrams of THC and be okay.
How often do you want to drive on the 405?
You want to drive straight on the 405?
Yes.
Having an edible on the 405 is terrifying.
I bet that there are, I bet there is a ward
in the Los Angeles mental asylum.
That's just filled with your friends.
Having bad trips on weed.
I had to stop.
I had to stop eating the fucking weed.
Really?
It was just, and then last week with those Goomy Bears,
those motherfuckers put me over the top.
I fell asleep at 6 o'clock one night.
Six o'clock.
I woke up at 7 and I canceled everything.
I'm like, I can't do it.
When you eat weed, when you eat weed,
your liver metabolizes it differently.
than when you smoke it.
So actually, the liver is turning it into a psychedelic
that's 10 times more powerful than when you smoke it,
which is why you get so much more hot.
Let me ask you something.
I eat 5,000 milligrams.
I haven't seen no psychedelics.
What do you mean?
You don't trip out when you eat weed?
I trip out.
Not by seeing things.
I trip out.
I get heat on my neck.
Oh, no, I don't mean like you elucin me.
No, I want to hallucinate.
You start thinking about aliens and wondering if you're channeling.
No, I want to know if that chick in 84 gave me chlamydia.
See?
That's what you get.
You got to get them tested.
I had the Coke and that...
You should wonder if every chick you fuck gave you chlamydia.
You don't know.
Jesus Christ.
It's fucking terrible.
I know I had it.
I had it.
I never treated it.
Wait.
I did.
I did.
Doesn't that mean you still haven't?
I don't know.
I went away.
After a while, it just goes away.
I don't know what I don't think it goes away
I got something I was dating these two college girls
They gave me something fucking
I had no insurance I just ran with it
Fuck it maybe the Drano killed it
No no I was after the drain it was 91
Two college chicks they were freaks too
And one was Korean and she had like a little leakage problem
I didn't give a fuck I don't give a fuck
They have a new strain of syphilis right now
That is now I heard but now I ain't gonna get nothing
I ain't fucking nothing now dog
There's no way.
I got a wife and a kid.
I don't even want to get my dick sucked no more.
Seriously, how can you ask a mom to suck a dick?
You feel so guilty.
You know, I don't mind giving my wife a stabbing,
but I can't look her in the eye no more and go suck it.
You know?
She's my baby's going to kiss her in the mouth.
I don't need that shit.
And the babies are going to have chlamydia from 84.
From 91 and shit.
She's going to be walking out with a pimple on her head.
I don't need that shit.
I know I had something in 91.
After I got divorced, I started doing coke, and I was, I started, I started doing comedy, and I was doing coke and eating volumes, and I was doing comedy in Boulder.
There was a lot of college girls in Boulder, and I was messing around with girls.
Listen, let me tell you something.
Safe sex is over fucking rated, all right?
It really is.
Save sex is over fucking rated at the end of the day.
You can't do nothing.
I don't like people putting gels on their pussy for moisture.
and I got to put a condom on
and you got to suck it and get it hard
and then put it on. That's a waste of time.
We could be doing shit. We could be
spinning around and shit. You know what I'm saying?
I'll take my chance. It's not like I picked you up in a
fucking alley.
You know what I'm saying? I met you on a bar
on a Wednesday night. You looked okay. I smelled
your neck. It was okay.
You know, Irish Spring, a little cologne, you know.
I got crabs from a McDonald's waitress.
I got crabs. No, no big. I'm not really a waitress.
A cash. I guess a cash.
Okay, well, all those McDonald's cashiers have crabs.
That's a fucking prerequisite.
That's why they were cashier at McDonald's, because they got crabs, you know.
It was horrible, man.
It's horrible.
That is, you've had crabs?
You've had crabs.
When you pull one of those things off and look at it, and you can see it's kind of mad at you.
It's moving.
I thought they were tiny, like tiny, tiny.
It's like their little arms, like stretch out.
If they could hiss, they would.
Is that you?
Oh.
No, I met a nice girl today at the pool.
She was like teaching my kids.
She was singing like, you know, old McDonald had a farm.
I turned out of the phone.
I turned out until it was you.
I don't want you at my show.
You're a nice girl.
You know what I'm saying?
You're going to get chlamydia.
VD is really intense when you think about the fact that it all traces back to one really filthy person.
Like, it started somewhere.
It wasn't like there was always syphilis.
It's like at one point, one person got syphilis,
and that was the beginning of this weird disease.
So if you get syphilis, you're connected to a disgusting tramp 50,000 years ago.
It's really weird to think about how disease uses us as a kind of public transport system through time.
It really does.
You really?
I went to, when I was a sophomore in high school, buddy mine called me.
He goes, we got to take a ride with me.
And I got in the car with him.
He was a good friend of mine.
And as we were driving, he goes, dog, got a problem.
I fucked my sister's best friend, and she gave me VD.
So we went to the clinic.
I'll never forget that.
I didn't give a fuck.
You know, I was high on everything.
I was angry.
But I remember looking at this chick, and she had something like around her mouth, like,
pimples and shit.
was looking at this nasty bitch.
And I remember that, like, that made, like, a mental note.
Like, I didn't know what the fuck it was,
but even then, like, I was good for a few years after that.
After what, what are you going to do?
I'm not going to eat your pussy?
Then why take you home?
You know what I couldn't imagine I eating a girl's pussy that you, you know?
And I never got nothing in my mind.
I got like a canker saw under your tongue.
Like, those little pimple down, look at that motherfucker.
If you don't get a little pimple under the air, you ain't real.
You know what I'm saying?
You got to get a little something under that
You pop it the next one
It goes pop
Look at there
Little pubic hair flies out of there
It's like a metal for eating pussy
You gotta have like eight of them on your wall
And shit look at that
It's very common
But no no I never really
I had the crabs
And I don't know what I had in 91
But it went away
I'm telling you I knew I had something
You know it happens
My podcast is actually now sponsored
by an STD testing website.
Is that fucking weird?
I don't know if I should do it or not.
It's really weird.
I'm sorry, it seems like I'm doing a plug here.
I'm not.
Maybe that's why I'm talking about VD,
but they contacted me,
and it's like a website
where you don't have to go to your doctor,
you go straight to the lab,
so you don't have to deal with like...
There's no middleman.
Yeah, it's embarrassing,
because when you go to your doctor,
it's embarrassing to tell him
you feel weird
and feels weird to do that.
Plus, if you don't have insurance, it costs a lot of money.
No, it's fucking nasty.
A lot of people here have SDDs, I'm sure, right now.
No offense, you guys.
Don't take that the wrong world.
You don't have to be ashamed of it.
I mean, it's a very common thing.
It's like death.
It's shit people don't like talking about,
but so many people have diseases.
Just normal.
Listen, why go to Vietnam and not get a medal?
What I'm saying?
Why go to Vietnam
If you're not going to get a fucking medal
Every once in a while you gotta get a medal, guys
You know, you think you're gonna do a good job
You're like, I fucked the shit out of that chick, I tied her up
I fucking, you know, popped her eyeball out with
And then three days later you got itches
Or you got a rash or something
And you're like, fuck it, that's a price of doing business
That's a good piece of ad
If not, you got a chick that just lays there
Don't want to touch your dick
You go home with nothing, but what did you get?
You go home with a chick and she's picking you up
and putting lighter fluid on your ball sack.
If you go home and you got VD, fuck it.
It was well worth it.
I mean, she around the world here, right?
That's why you go home to have sex
so a person could take you around the fucking world.
Am I not lying like the red hot chili peppers?
The fuck, I gotta stop doing quailutes.
I would never want, like,
letter fluid on the ball sack. What are you talking about?
No one wants that. What's that?
Letter fluid on the ball sack.
Bill, whatever. I'm just making a fucking thing.
Nobody wants it, but...
Listen, nobody wants a finger up your ass either.
And the next thing you know, you got a chick
strapping one on fucking in the asshole.
And it feels good. It never happened to me, but it's happened to people I know.
You know, nobody says nobody wants nothing on you.
You know, that's the thing that me and you always have discussions about.
Nobody wants a fart to the face.
But after you get it, it feels good.
You're like, that wasn't bad.
Nobody wants to lick a person's asshole.
But if you're real and you're passionate,
you're in love and you're eating pussy,
and you're just picking up legs
and the assholes right there, you lick it too.
When you love somebody and you're having sex with them,
you just want to lick them all over.
Give the fuck if it's the asshole.
You lick a belly button.
You know what's in a person's belly button?
That's disgusting.
That's disgusting.
You know how many times?
I've come in my own belly bone.
Like, you know many times I've walked off
and I just land on my... And I'll wash around,
but the little kid goes into the belly bone.
What do you think about 20,000 loads
plus lint plus
fucking mats from working out?
No towels. What do you think your belly button
for that's why people... Your belly button smells.
No shit. It's got to smell worse
than your fucking ass.
I agree.
I can't say no to that.
This podcast has taken a very weird direction.
into that, you know what's going on with your health?
What's happening with your health?
You also had a health scare this year.
Yeah, I got ball cancer, got one of my balls chopped off.
But I just got my first cat scan result back to see if, because like I had to get radiation,
which really sucks, which is another reason why you should not be afraid of the doctor.
Because if you think, if one of your balls is swollen up, just get it.
checked out, don't wait, go to the doctor, but it goes, God, man, this is a, I'm really funny
tonight.
Anyway, I had to get radiation for a month because a couple of my lymph nodes were enlarged,
and getting radiation sucks.
It's like being car sick for a month straight.
It's a horrible, horrible experience.
And so I had to get, I got my first CT scan to see if that had worked, and I'm fine.
Yeah, it totally worked.
Science.
Weston.
Yeah.
It's cool.
You know, I got to tell you something when all this was going.
I remember Duncan came to the hospital, see the baby.
The next day after it was born.
It was just amazing.
Went to get a stake.
I mentioned this on the podcast the other day.
And I was ashamed of this, man, for years.
I was very ashamed of it, and I opened up about it.
And it's made me a thousand friends.
You know, tomorrow was 25 years since I got sentenced
in prison.
Wow.
And you sit there and you're like, wow, you went to prison.
Today I told Lee Monday and I was thinking about a Tuesday.
And I was thinking about at the time how bad it was.
Somebody sent me an email yesterday that said,
what do you do while you're out on bail waiting to go to prison?
And I said, live your fucking life because that's what I did.
I did blow.
I shoplifted.
I went swimming.
I took classes at CU.
I didn't stop.
But, you know,
At that time, at that time, it was so fucking bad for me.
But I accepted it was my fate.
I had done a bunch of crimes, and I was going to pay for all of them.
When I got out of prison, I was going to start from anew.
And that was bullshit.
But I'm going to tell you, as bad as I thought that situation was,
I wouldn't be here today without that situation.
And it made me a comedian, even on top of everything.
So, yeah, you got bulk cancer this year, if you want to put it that bluntly.
but I remember like now you're completely different.
You're reading healthier.
You're more aware.
You know, an experience like that when you, you know, most people, I don't know what the percentages are,
but bulk cancer that make it or don't cancer.
Cancer the word is just horrific.
When you hear it, it's just horrific.
And you're a better person because of it.
Well, yeah, and that is because it's truth.
And any time, and this is the, another insane thing about being human is the things that you're most terrified of are the,
generally once you experience the thing you're most afraid of, it gives you the most in life.
And people don't understand that.
So we spend all our times trying to avoid the truth.
When actually contact with the truth, it's the thing that makes life worth living.
It's the thing that makes life incredibly beautiful.
And if you're all numbed out to it and trying to ignore the reality of your situation,
by hiding in video games or by hiding in drugs or hiding and whatever,
way you're trying to stick your head in the sand to escape truth. All you're doing is keeping
yourself from experiencing happiness, I think. But not the normal kind of happiness. It's not like
that numb down happiness. It's the happiness of somebody jumping out of an airplane without a
parachute and the thousands of feet you get as you're flying are incredible. That's what human
existence is. It's jumping out of a pussy without a parachute plunging towards oblivion. And
And the more you understand that, the more fully you can experience the exhilaration of incarnating for only 60 years in a dimension where we are apparently the only sentient beings in the entire universe.
That's fucking insane.
That's an insane thing.
And contact with truth helps you understand that.
But you don't have to get your ball chopped off to understand that.
Just sit down and start meditating and thinking a little bit.
and you can get to that place too.
Yeah, it's getting my ball chopped off sucked.
Definitely it sucked.
And my mom died dying sucked,
but I'll tell you what sucks a million times more than that.
Being in a bad relationship at the Grove.
Try that.
Go to the Grove when you're in a fight with your girlfriend.
And you've been in this awful, sexless relationship for four years.
and you know you're trapped on every side.
You can't escape from it.
You're like a rat that's fallen in a glue trap.
And you're so terrified of change that you're allowing yourself to be in this horrific trap.
Even though inside your guts are on fire, your insides are gnawing themselves out,
you're having terrible sleep and terrible dreams,
all because you don't appreciate your life enough to escape from the shitty situation you've managed to get yourself in.
That experience of being trapped in an awful relationship,
job, whatever the thing is you manage to get yourself trapped in,
millions of times worse than getting your ball chopped off,
radiation or having your mom die, a million times worse.
You know, funny, yesterday and I witnessed news,
they always give you like a stat, you know?
And the stat of the day was relationships, married couples
with four children or more tend to stay together.
No shit.
What the fuck you're going to go with?
four motherfuckers.
You lose either way.
Where's the chick gunning?
How are you doing?
You're looking good tonight.
Yeah, let's go home.
I got four kids.
Fuck you, four kids.
You know, the guy, he's going to have to
support four kids.
He's going to have to get another job.
He can't even get a piece of ass.
So where's he going to go?
You know, it's sad that you're fucking trapped.
And I know what you're saying.
I hate the fucking grove when I go there by myself.
Yeah.
I hate the fucking grove.
Everything about it.
The food, walking around there.
the fucking people parking going on Fairfax, fuck that shit.
Yeah.
Yeah, but it's an amazing fucking thing that humans let themselves get into these situations.
It's an amazing thing that we let ourselves get so trapped in misery and then pretend everything's okay just because we're afraid of change.
That would be okay to do if you were immortal.
But you can't do it if you only have a limited time to be on this planet.
What are you doing?
Why are you in that shitty job?
You know that you can't.
You think that you can only make whatever the fucking shit amount of money that you're getting paid?
Not all of you.
I'm sure some of you are making billions of dollars.
But me personally, there have been times when I've been chained down to a job where with three days of effort, I could have found a better thing.
Three days of effort.
It's just strange.
We get sucked into these quick sand pits of, of, uh, of, um, um, um, um,
of fear, and there's no need to be there.
And that's what, you know, coming close to
or getting something that kills you, reminds you of.
But I'm playing World of Warcraft again.
What the fuck am I saying?
You know, it's crazy.
I was trapped in the worst relationship of all time.
It was called cocaine.
And I didn't know it.
How bad it was?
Listen to this, guys. This is how fucking...
I'm 50 years old. This is how bad this was.
Last Wednesday, I went to do a spot of...
at the Ha-ha Cafe.
And this is the first time this has happened to me
in five and a half years.
I get off the stage at the Ha-ha Cafe.
I'm talking to a bunch of guys,
and one of the guys reaches home.
He goes, Dog, I brought you a present.
And he puts a business card in my hand or a matchbook.
I didn't know what it was.
It felt like a business card or a matchbook.
But it was swollen in the middle.
So I thought he just gave me a bud.
So I put it in my pocket.
And as he left and everybody left,
I started telling him my buddy.
And I went in my pocket
and took it out, and it was a fucking Coke rock track
that could have choked the mule.
Now, between us, there was a zero percent,
not even the thought came into my head of doing it.
I saw three people who did do it,
and I called one of them and oh, I go, here you go, happy New Year.
And next day he called me, he's like,
that shit was the real deal.
Did you get that from those really dark Mexicans
that were there?
Because there were these dark Mexicans,
one had a cowboy hat.
Those are the motherfuckers.
They got the good Coke.
The Mexicans with the cowboy hat.
Fuck those are those.
mother fuckers on the corner with tattoos
or raiders on their neck fuck those motherfuckers
it's the Mexicans with the cowboy hat
and the cowboy boots their shit is the shit
that killed Whitney Houston right
so
so I remember going home that night
and it was Sons of Anarchy tonight guys so
don't worry about nothing tonight you go home
you can smoke a joint if you got insomnia
of Sonsa Anarchy's home I watched the episode of Sonsa
Anarchy after the ha-ha
and I went to sleep and the next day I thought about
what had just happened.
And I thought about that somebody had given me something
that in other times I would have done it before I got to the car.
You know that, Duncan.
Yes.
I would have done it before I got to the fucking car.
And I thought about how weird my life was.
Like, I remember thinking about quitting four years
from the time I quit and saying to myself,
if I quit, I won't be funny.
That's how demented I was on this fucking shit.
That it told me that if I quit, I would not be funny.
Yeah. And there's like not even, not even like 1% of you wanted to do it.
What, quit?
No, do the coke he gave you.
Not even one percent. It didn't even enter my mind.
Like it didn't even, I got too much going on for it to even enter my mind.
But as the days went, I kept thinking about my life while I was on it.
And what would have happened if I would have taken a bump?
Just one bump.
And my luck would have changed for the worst all over again.
Because it was, for me, it wasn't really an addiction.
It was a spell.
It was a spell of life.
I was doing so much coke that finally reality said,
you want to do coke?
We're going to give you fucking coke.
There was a time when, even when I didn't want to do coke,
I would go to somebody's house and they would give me an eight ball.
Or something would happen that it would be there.
So it was like a glutton type thing, you know?
So it was just weird.
Since that night, I've been thinking about what could have happened
and what didn't happen was never going to happen.
It didn't even enter my fucking mind.
But it's just so weird that I gave it up after 27 years.
and it was the worst relationship I ever had
because like a relationship, it starts all great.
Right.
You're at the bar.
Oh, my God.
This is tremendous.
Let's go home and fuck.
And in the beginning, you get a heart on.
She wants to suck your pipe.
She lets you come on her face.
But then as time goes on, the cocaine becomes something else.
You start getting paranoid.
You start getting dead dick.
You know, it just evolves.
It evolved into me, not even wanted to have a woman around me.
I got to the point.
The last 10 years of cocaine, you know, I didn't, the girls would say, let's go and do Coke.
And I would think about it and go, no, because I don't want them in my fucking room telling me about their life and shit, about their mother and father and their first boyfriend.
I don't want to hear that shit.
I just didn't want to hear it.
So I wouldn't.
But it got me to be alone and creepy.
Yeah.
So everything starts off great, but it always ends up you're at the fucking grove doing fucking Coke or.
It doesn't matter.
We're all fucked because the technology that's about to come out is going to be impossible to resist.
The stuff that's about to come out, the Oculus Rift system, which if you guys have seen that,
this consumer-based VR goggles that you put on and it has perfect head tracking.
So when you put it on, you're in whatever the video game is.
Well, that's going to keep progressing.
This is like the Atari.
Remember the way the Atari looked?
I don't know if you guys are old enough to remember the Atari.
but when I got an Atari, I felt like I was flying a fucking spaceship.
And you're just hitting little dots across the screen.
But it seems so amazing that you can even control something inside the TV
that it blows your mind.
Well, now look at where we're at with Xbox
and what's about to come out with the next generation consoles.
Well, these Oculus Rifts, they're about to make it
so that we can enter into virtual worlds.
And 50 years from now, these worlds are going to be completely indistinguishable
from this reality.
So video games are going to start with you putting on this Oculus Rift,
plugging into whatever weird neurological device that you put on your head that controls your memories,
you put the fucking thing on and suddenly you have all these memories that are in the video game.
You put the thing on and suddenly you believe that the video game is real
and the life that you just left is a video game.
And there's going to be people shooting up parks because they think that they're in a video game still.
They won't know that they've like taken the rift off.
That's what we're on the verge of.
This shit is going to make cocaine seem like a fucking pop-tart.
That's where we're headed.
It's true.
It's amazing.
But yeah, that's what we're on the verge of getting sucked into.
So addiction is only going to get worse and worse.
We are in the age of digital drugs around the precipice of it.
I can't wait.
Let me ask you something.
Is it fucking me?
This is how fucked up I'm getting in my old.
days. Every time I'm somewhere long enough, I feel I'm going to get shot or hit by a fucking
car. You know what I'm saying? I'm not kidding you people no more. Like I'm getting this phobia
lately that like even like public parks and shit when I'm the other day I was throwing my daughter
on the swing. I'm like, what am I going to get shot? What fucking part? It was nine the morning.
Yeah. You know, and I was thinking about that what happened in Venice last week. They
could happen anywhere now. You know, when I go to the farmer's market now, a fucking guy could
just drive on there and run over a bunch of fucking people, which is a farmer's market.
If you know what I mean, sometimes you've got to hit some of those motherfuckers at the farmer's
market.
You know, it's so weird.
I was thinking about this day a day about the farmer's market, and I wrote something on
Facebook because it dawned on me that somewhere in one of those towns where terrorism blossoms, you know,
There's a terrorist somewhere, and I wrote it on Facebook.
There's a terrorist somewhere strapping a bomb to his body.
I didn't write this, for creative purposes.
What?
For creative purposes.
Like in this country, what do people say all the time?
I was looking for a job to express myself.
Or I got a tattoo because I wanted to express myself.
Really?
There's a fucking towelhead somewhere right now.
Strap in C4 to his fucking leg, his stomach, and his head.
so he could be
expressing his fucking self
which is real expression
compared to your fucking tattoo
on your fucking neck
so you really think about where we've taken our
words in this country
because that's what Obama does
he wants to express himself correctly
am I fucking retarded here
no no he's saying
fuck it some people want to be in movies
some people want to be Brad Pitt
some people want to do podcasts
fuck it I'm going to strap a bomb onto
my body and express
myself that way. Seriously.
I want to be hamburger meat. I want to be fucking hamburger meat
and go to Allah and sling
dick up there with whatever.
You know, and now you got like
mothers, soccer moms
sitting there going, well, you know,
I got this tattoo of a Chinese figure
because I want to express myself.
Right. Right. And you're sitting there going, what the
fuck is going on here? Yeah. Yeah, it's like
it's like if you think that
you are really living
a hard life, like hard
in the sense of like tough, like hard, like
hard, like thuggish, tough, hardcore life. There is a man in a cave using duct tape to tie explosives
to his body while he chants from the fucking Quran. Think about that. Weird ancient prayers as you're
taping dynamite to yourself. That is real. This is the shit I think about when I'm having a bad
mushroom trip. This exact thing. I'll roll over on the mattress against the wall and just think like,
God damn, they want to blow us up, man.
They fucking people want to blow other people up.
It's crazy to think that.
That's a reality, though.
And they want to blow other people up for an invisible man.
That's where it gets really weird.
They're not even blowing other people up for land.
Like Jim Jones.
Yeah.
Like, if you read a report back to Jim Jones, bitch, I ain't drinking the Kool-Aid.
I'll tell you what I will do, though.
I'll strap a bomb on and go to a farmer's market on Lowell Canyon on Sunday.
That's it.
And I'll blow that motherfucker.
up along with those three Chinese paparazzi.
Yeah.
Charisma is fucking dangerous.
I'm reading Under the Banner of Heaven by John Crackhauer.
Have you read this about the Mormons?
Wow.
Joseph Smith.
Holy shit.
Are there any Mormons in the audience?
Joseph Smith.
Wow.
This was a very horny man.
He was like super horny and he wanted to have sex all the time.
But he couldn't figure out a way to do that within the confines of being a Mormon.
so he had a vision where God told him that he should take multiple wives.
And he would go to like 14-year-olds and 16-year-old girls and say to them,
you have to marry me because God told me we have to get married
and you have 24 hours to decide or you're going to hell.
Yeah, that was the guy who founded, who was the prophet of the Mormons,
would trick 14-year-old girls into fucking him by saying they'd go to hell.
And people got so mad at him that it wanted.
point he got dragged out of a house into the woods by a mob and there was a doctor there who was
going to cut off his cock but the doctor felt sorry for him so they just tard and feathered him
and like sent him into the woods that's the guy who started the Mormons he got he got killed by a
mob in a jail because he burnt down a printing press of someone who was printing newsletters about
how he was like a polygamist because at the time people didn't know and and so he burnt
the printing press down and then a mob shot him in jail.
Point being,
charismatic men are very dangerous and it's amazing
how you can get sucked into that gravity.
That happens all the time. It's the story of
every religion, really.
I used to date a girl
that grew up in a cult.
You know?
It's really fucked up. She had nine
brothers and sisters and four of the
brothers belonged to the cult leader
and five belonged to the father.
And they all lived on the fucking cult.
This is crazy shit.
And the guy weighed like 500 fucking pounds,
and they would have to cut his toenails and shit.
Are you fucking crazy?
Are you fucking crazy?
And the mother and father fell for this.
Met the guy in Mexico and moved to Indiana.
I guess cult's illegal?
Yeah.
Indiana or some shit.
They're legal everywhere.
But like in Indiana, you could take it to the next level.
You could fucking...
You get a house and smack them and fucking do it the hell you want with them.
I don't know what it was.
but it was when she would tell me the stories
that they would take a pig and eat everything
they would make blood pudding
they would make blood fucking pudding
now I always asked her why didn't she kill her parents
because that's what I would have done
I would have sued those motherfuckers
because she the parents went into the cult
with no kids and they came out with nine kids
they escaped and had to start from scratch
the guy took all their money and shit over the years
this is fucking crazy shit
and I sit here once a month
I see her on Facebook.
She'll send me a message this fucking retard.
And she'll talk about, you know, and I'll think about
how she didn't sue her parents yet.
Like, I go down on Facebook page,
and there's, like, her and her family, I 4th of July
playing the fucking guitar.
I would hit them all in the fucking head.
And I feel bad for the brothers, but the point
being is that, and I shouldn't put this shit
on Point Street, who gives a fuck,
but the point being is that there's people
who do that. I could never,
listen, if I wanted to do something,
Like if Duncan had a cult
And we did quailudes every day
And we got our dick sucked
We put our dick in a wall
And somebody sucked it on the other side
Something phenomenal
Why on the wall?
I don't know something different
You know what I'm saying?
I'm just...
I wouldn't mind
Join that cult
But I would never involve my wife
And my kids
Right
You know what I'm saying
If I was that what I could do
Then fuck it
I'll go alone by myself
But I would never
So I never could understand
how they involve their kids and shit like that.
Like, it's that powerful that you're going to put your kids into that.
Like, the guy's that fucking strong.
That's, I never understood.
Well, it's the same, it's the same psychology that makes people fuck up their lives on a slot machine.
Like, if you go to a slot machine and you put in 20 bucks and lose 20 bucks, then you think,
fuck, I at least got to win the $20 back.
And you put in another $20 and another $20.
And the more you invest, the more you want to put in.
It's the same with religion.
You'll get into religion when you're too, when you're probably,
too dumb to understand that the religion or the people who are teaching you the religion are just
tricking you. They're just deceptive people who are trying to take your money most of the time.
And they're trying to take your money because they say they're intermediaries for an invisible man.
This is the history of religion. This is, who was it, Mark Twain who said religion?
Mark Twain said religion started when the first con man met the first fool.
Isn't that awesome?
It's, but, yeah, that's usually what it is.
I mean, not all churches.
There's some churches, I think, that can really help your life, but the churches are so
devious and deceptive that they've actually gotten where they don't have to pay taxes.
Think about that.
They don't have to pay fucking taxes.
These are guys that do a show.
It's a show.
It's an entertainment show.
Every Sunday they put on a funny outfit.
They dress like a clown, a weird, like God clown thing.
And then they hypnotize a group of people into giving them money because they think that by giving them the money, they're planting seeds of love in the garden of heaven.
And from these seeds, prosperity will grow.
People believe that shit.
They believe that by giving money to the church, they're going to get something back from that.
That's fucking madness.
I saw this televangelist saying on one of these late night shows, he's like, come on, you've only saved a few thousand.
for the house. Do you really think you're going to buy a house? Send the thousand dollars to us and we will
triple that money through God. That's fucking incredible, man. That is pure evil deception. That's the
most evil thing there is ever. So the odds are when you got sucked into the thing, you weren't aware of the
fact that you're being tricked by a very greedy, clever man. And so because you got tricked and you
have a pride, as most humans do, instead of acknowledging that you got tricked and leaving the
religion, you throw away the rest of your logic, and you call that faith. You say, oh, no,
I'm just going to believe in this no matter what, even though my rational mind is telling me
it's absolute crap. And that's how religion works. God forgive me.
It's amazing. It's amazing how I walk, I mean, I used to live in Hollywood, and there's a place
towards Vine that has great natural sandwiches, and they make a great fresh, they're Spanish,
They make a great, you know, juice, Hugo's, Nautarales, whatever the fuck they call them.
And they also have like tuna, and they do it without the mayonnaise.
It's really sharp.
And I used to go in there, but you have to walk past a Scientology place.
Yes.
And they'd always ask you for an IQ test.
Yeah.
And you're sitting there going, they're sucking me in with an IQ test.
Yeah.
Like that's one religion that I never understood.
It's a Hollywood thing.
People call Illumina.
what is your take on this whole
fucking thing? On Scientology?
Yeah.
Is this going on the internet?
Absolutely.
I think it's great.
Wonderful religion.
I think it's a...
They're great.
I mean, join.
Anyone listening should join right away.
I can think I goon squads and everything,
but let's be honest.
Well, no.
It's not just Scientology.
It's every religion.
Scientology emerges and people are like,
man, those guys are fucking nuts.
They believe in aliens.
They believe that we're all aliens.
Or they believe that there's tiny microscopic alien particles on our body, causing us to do bad things.
They're fucking nuts.
How could they convince anyone to believe that nonsense?
Meanwhile, every Sunday there's people sitting who believe that these wafers have been turned
into the flesh of a sacrificed man god who has sent down to earth to bathe the world in blood.
That's fucking crazy, too.
That's equally goddamn crazy.
If you change the name Jesus to LADAR and just say the exact same religion but with a different name, it sounds mad.
Like, I have been washed in the blood of LADAR.
That sounds crazy.
Who's Lader?
Lader.
Who the fuck knows?
But when you listen to Christian radio.
Fuck just Lader.
Lader.
You just make up, this is what I've been doing.
I've been making up names to replace like Jesus and God.
Because if you listen to Christian radio, they say some crazy shit.
They'll say, like, we have been washed in the blood of Christ.
What the fuck are you saying?
What?
Washed in blood?
That's Charles Manson's shit.
Washed in the blood of Christ.
When is that ever good?
When is it ever good to wash in blood?
Hey man, your sink's not working.
Oh, just washing that bowl of blood, I keep by the sink.
That'll get your hands real clean.
But because we've heard it so many times from the moment we were born, it just sounds normal.
Yeah, washed in the blood of Christ.
I was raised in the Catholic religion.
There was times again, like when I found my mother.
I would say, what the fuck are these people talking about?
The fucking funniest line of all time is Jesus died for our sins.
So back up.
Let's pretend tonight Duncan goes and stabs three motherfuckers and they die.
Murder is a sin.
I'm gonna be sitting at home and also somebody's gonna call me and go, Duncan stabbed three
fucking people, he killed him. I'm going to sit there and go, you know what? I'm going to call
somebody a fucking nigger so they could shoot me so I could die for his fucking sins.
Right.
Is it something like that? I'm sorry if I said the word nigger. I didn't mean to insult nobody.
You motherfuckers know what I'm saying. You've been around me enough.
Well, no. I'm not prejudiced. I just, what happens if you went out and called the black guy
a nigger 10 o'clock at night? You get fucking shot. That's right. So that's how I meant it.
Hey, if we're going to piss off the Scientology, we might as well piss off black people too.
What are you going to do?
Yeah, I don't know, man.
I think Christianity is incredibly beautiful religion when you don't take it literally.
But I think when you start taking it literally, there's so many problems with it that end up turning it into something that it's not at all.
I just had this guy Graham Hancock on my podcast, and he freaked me out because he was talking about.
telling me about something called Gnosticism, which is the idea that the God that everybody
thinks is God is actually Satan.
That the God that everyone's worshiping is Satan.
That there's an entity that came to planet Earth and tricked certain people into believing
that it was a good God, when in fact it's like Satan.
So like the Catholic Church, fundamentalist Christianity, Islam,
Hinduism, any religion that is involved with violence or death or taking people's money or exploiting
people or molesting kids or hurting people, it's like that because they're actually worshiping
Satan who's convinced them that he's God and is telling them to kill, which is a benevolent God
would never do. So it flips things around. So Christianity is actually a form of Satanism,
that the fundamentalist practice.
They're actually worshipping the devil.
Isn't that heavy, man?
That's fucking heavy, Doug.
It's fucking heavy, but look, man,
how the fuck do you believe in Jesus
while you're dropping bombs on children?
How do you do that?
George Bush said he was a Christian, man.
He had no problem slinging cluster bombs
into the streets of Iraq.
That guy said he worshipped Jesus.
He's a born-again Christian.
He believed God was talking to him.
And the Gnostics would,
say, oh, God was talking
to him, just not the Christian God.
The God from fucking
underneath the earth.
You must attack Iraq, George.
It's Jesus.
You know, that's fucked up. That is true.
Listen, at this point, anything
is fucking possible.
Anything is fucking possible at this
point, you know? You sit there.
Well, I mean, these priests are fingering kids.
I mean, hey. No, no, I'm still
thinking about Jesus being the devil.
I've been giving the devil a dollar every
fucking Sunday
for the last 40 years.
That motherfucker,
wait till I get my hands
on that prick.
You know,
the Catholic religion,
listen,
all the religions are good
and fucking bad,
you know?
Right.
It's whatever they do
for you.
It's like the Beatles.
You know,
it's like Bruce Springsteen.
I don't like Bruce Springsteen,
but half of you do.
And you love them
and you'll argue with me
and you whatever, you know,
that's just the way life is.
Well, it depends.
I wonder about that
that best for you thing.
I wonder about that best for you thing.
for you when I hear stories in Afghanistan
of 13-year-old girls
who just learned to read getting
acid thrown in their face by
men who are practicing
who are doing it in the name of Islam.
Well, that's good for
them, but that's not really good for the girl
whose face just got turned into a
fucking sizzling
mass of pink
flesh with their eyeballs running down their face
like scrambled eggs.
It's not really good for them that's fucked up.
So that's a funny problem that we have
right now on planet Earth is we all want to believe like,
no, it's good for you, go ahead and do it.
But in a way, it's like, well, it might not be good for you.
A lot of your priests are sticking their fucking cocks
and babies, and you're making women dress like beekeepers.
What's I got to do with the Beatles?
The Beatles never threw asses in nobody's face.
He just married Yoko.
That's all the Beatles did that was fucked up.
You know, in life, it's whatever it does for you guys.
You know, some people like,
juicing, you know?
How long did you take it before you said,
fuck this shit?
It sucks, dick, you know?
It's whatever it does for you at that time in your life.
You're right.
You ever eat a fucking sandwich,
and you say this is the best sandwich I've ever eaten?
I eat this for the rest of my fucking life.
And then when you're 40 one day, you're like,
I can't believe I used to eat that shit.
Or people are, hey, I got you that sandwich.
You're like, please, I don't ever want to see one of those motherfuckers
again.
because it works for you at that time.
You know, when I was a kid, my friend dated a girl,
and she worked on a Burger King.
So every Sunday, when we were in high school,
we go up and I tear up ten of those chicken sandwiches.
I thought they were fucking great.
I thought they were the best thing I ever tasted,
until Wendy's brought their chicken sandwich in like 82.
But that's at the point.
The point was a couple weeks ago I was headed a rush with my wife
to Santa Barbara, and we stopped at Burger King,
and I got the chicken sandwich,
and it was the worst fucking thing I ever tasted.
I took a bite and I threw it out of the fucking car.
Am I mad at Burger King?
Yeah, the food always sucked.
It worked for me 30 years ago.
Yeah, but what about the stuff that worked for Jeffrey Dahmer, gay people's brains?
Is it good for him to eat?
Eat people?
To cannibalize people?
By the way, I want to agree with you.
This is a thing I've been struggling with, especially after reading that book about the Mormons.
And then any time you turn on the news, it's a religious-based conflict.
part of me is like, no, it's not what works for you.
It's what works for all of us together.
What's based in the truth, you know?
I don't know where it goes, but I don't know about this whole like,
yeah, just do whatever you want, man.
It'll be fine.
If that was the case, it would be, I don't know what it would be.
It would just be a mass of people giving themselves blow jobs
surrounded by, I don't know where I'm going with that.
When I was 15.
When I was 15, I found my mother on the floor.
And I goofed around with at the beginning of the show.
But at that time, it was something different to me.
And what happened to me was I lost faith.
I lost faith in mankind because I was Catholic.
And how could a God take away somebody's mother when they're 15?
So I lost faith in everything.
I lost faith in humanity.
I lost faith in the God we had.
You know, I didn't lose faith on humanity until later on.
till I couldn't get Social Security because my mother didn't work enough quarters.
Or the insurance policy that was left wasn't signed by a doctor.
There were just all these things that I kept getting fucked in the ass from.
I didn't turn to religion.
But at that time, at that little gap, if you would have given me a gun,
I could have turned to murder.
And it would have been hard the first time, but it would have got easier.
I didn't.
You know what worked for me at that time?
You know what sealed that pain?
Getting high with my friends and doing coke and mugging hookers
and telling all those ridiculous stories I tell.
That's how I worked it.
You had a loss this year.
Yes.
I don't know how you're going to react to it.
I don't know.
It's two of you.
Your mom passed away three, four months ago.
My mom passed away November 8th, February 1st.
February 19th, I was at Pink Floyd.
So that was three months different, you know.
But after that, it went downhill.
for me I didn't need religion
but I can't imagine for some people
maybe the Coke wouldn't work
maybe going to the church of Scientology
worked that's how I mean it
right I know he means best for them
right now you don't like religion but you're going to get
into something else because it fills
that void
something has to fill a void right but that thing that
you're saying right there something has
to fill the void there is another
philosophy which is that no
nothing can fill the void and in fact
the only thing you can do is accept that you
are the void, become the void. Recognize that your pure emptiness and any imaginary thing that you
try to cling on to to protect yourself from the real truth, which is that you're going to be
worm food in a blink of an eye. That's a waste of time. That we have to like cling firmly to
the truth of our existence, which is one that a lot of people hide from using religion. But you know what,
man, I sound like I'm depressed. No, no, no, no. I'm sorry. You know, listen, we have a thousand people in this
room that I've each gone through different things.
And you may agree what we're talking about.
You may not disagree, but I just want to explain
my point that
something works for everybody. Some people
go into seclusion. Some women start
fucking 20 guys a night.
You know,
I'm not putting nobody, it just happens.
Some guys use sex as a tool.
It just happens. Something has to work
for you. And you're right. You cannot
fill that void. I could never
and I've told Lee this,
and I've told anybody that's close to me this, I told it
on the documentary.
I could never fill the void that my mother left.
I just told my wife this about a month ago,
and she was upset with me.
She's like, you tell me this shit now?
No, you can't fill the void of that hole that she left.
It's like eating food with no salt on it
for the rest of my life.
That's what it felt like when my mother died.
Christmas ain't the same.
My birthday ain't the same.
You know, opening day ain't the same.
Right.
For baseball.
But that was me, you know.
There's something.
There ain't, you can't fill every void.
but there's something you usually turn to.
And I'm sorry that tonight's podcast wasn't this fucking bowl of hilarity.
Yes, sorry.
But they cannot always be.
We have to get down.
I want you guys to leave sometimes and go, dog, I was thinking about that the other day.
Or, you know, we added some color commentary tonight.
There was a hard motherfucking podcast.
So after we're going to smoke some pot and maybe drink some cocktails with you guys to relieve the pain.
But listen, like I said, pain takes you to the next.
fucking level. It's so
weird because it's true
what they say, you know, what's the
thing? Pain
let you know you're still alive
or pain, whatever. Pain
takes you to the next level because
you'll never have that pain again.
Once you get shot one time,
the next bullet is like, fuck it, I got shot.
Ain't no, but it's just a hot piece of metal
and I put a nice cube on it. That's some shit.
But that's, pain always takes you
to the next fucking level of your life.
no matter how you look at it.
And you're sticking to me, Joey,
what the fuck are you talking about?
I lost my mother.
Pain takes you to the next level.
Took me to the next level and made me a fucking savage.
It made me a reversible savage.
I still refined it, but I'm still, over the years,
I've taken sandpaper,
and I've shaved some of the shit that you don't see off,
but I'm still a savage.
I know this.
Because of that void that was left, you know?
So, I don't know what to tell you.
You.
What the fuck is your problem
tonight, Doc Tucker?
Huh?
Don't you have any pain
in your heart?
No, I was thinking about
a lot of stuff you guys said
and it's, uh,
because we talk about fear a lot
on the podcast and it's,
like right now I'm in a job that I hate,
but then you think like,
not this one,
um,
like you say like pain,
like it makes you stronger.
Like,
sometimes you could be scared.
Like, if I quit this job,
then like I won't be like,
I'm going to be stronger
for making it through this.
so like you don't know which way to go
and that's something with religion
my mom wasn't really religious
but she wanted to be
so like she gets hurt
when I don't go to temple
and like as a kid
I didn't want to like hurt
hurt her by not like
fearful of leaving that
so it's
it's a weird thing like
like you don't like
religion isn't for me
but it's also like I don't want to hurt anyone
so like there's so many angles to it
it's it's
look man I go
There's a church I go to in Culver City sometimes called Agape.
This guy, Reverend Michael Beckwith, is the reverend there.
And it's like, I always leave feeling better.
I always leave feeling better.
So I'm sorry for shitting all over religion.
I think that I just think that you have to make sure that you're approaching it from a platform of truth and not delusion.
You know what I mean?
So go into like, go to temple if it makes you happy.
Go to church if it makes you happy, but just understand why you're happy.
Don't let them tell you why you're happy.
Understand why it's worth.
Find the truth in the goddamn thing.
I put something on Twitter on Monday, and it sounded corny, but it's true.
The happiest I get is doing like this stuff.
It's with Joey, but with any guests.
Like it was funny.
I was looking online.
Our number one podcast in the past like two months is with Agostino at the house,
the first one we did.
And for people who, he's not like a known comedian.
He's a guy who's 25 just starting on in comedy,
but there's something about like talking things out
and like being positive.
And it's just, it's like the happiest I get.
And like it's, I wouldn't call it a religion,
but it's like kind of what religion wants to be.
Yes, exactly.
That sums it up perfectly.
That's exactly right.
Imagine if you decided that instead of tithing 10% of your income
to the church as they ask you to do,
you're going to set aside 10% of your income
just to buy things for your friends,
just to do nice things for people.
So now you control that.
So now 10% of everything you make
you put aside no account,
and that account is to buy Xboxes for your pals,
to seriously.
Seriously, think about how fun your life becomes,
because now you're really tithing to the universe,
because you're in control of the tithing.
Instead of giving it away to the people
and the funny costumes,
you've become the thing
that's sending the energy out directly
to the people close.
to you. So what you're saying
is not what, I think it is religion.
It is connectivity. And
religion is a thing that
imitates that more than it generally
becomes it. Yeah, because like
no one, like, if someone had asked me four years ago
when I was doing a final in college,
if I'd be happy if a guy who went
to jail for kidnapping
someone with a machine gun came over to my house
two days a week at six in the morning
to talk about
like, get on up, cock, cock, sucker, and all that
Like, are you crazy?
What is he talking about?
But it's the best part of my life now.
You know, the best thing about these podcast guys, honest to God,
and I can't stress this is one of our friends come on here.
This is easy.
You know, Duncan and I lost contact for a few years,
and I was very hurt by it.
Like when Joe would say, guess what, Duncan's going to show,
and I would go, fuck Duncan.
And Joe would go, why?
And I go, because motherfucker don't come around.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't care what goes on in your life.
When your family, you're always a part of us.
You're always a part.
You know, Lee always says him in the podcast.
I talk to Joey every day.
I've never had that before.
When you're my family, that's what it means to be family.
These motherfuckers that call you a friend, you go to a party,
oh my God, my best friend is here.
Why?
You know, I don't hear from you unless there's a party or something.
A best friend is somebody go to a party
when to take those birthday pictures.
In VIP, it's when you talk to somebody.
It's when you make their day
and they make your fucking day.
Because Lee makes me, you guys listen
to the podcast. He makes my day.
At 6th of the morning,
it's like being an uncle
and having, I'm an older guy.
And it's funny because
four years ago I had nothing going on
and I swear to God, I'm going to tell you
who told me this. Seafood,
the black dude,
the Kung Fu guy, the Santeria guy,
told me, he goes, if you're not getting anything,
Joey, it's because you're not stepping
up and being a man around these youngsters.
And those words changed my life forever.
I got Lee, I got Duncan, I got Martin
Rizzo. And he's not bullshitting. He walks the walk.
When I was sick, he called
me more than anyone else,
including people in my family.
You have to. It was so, and that means
so much. Everybody wants friends, but
nobody wants to put the effort in. And it
destroys me. It destroys
me. Everybody wants to be a
mats.com, and anybody wants to social life,
everybody wants to have 20 friends.
I don't need 20 friends. I need four
good ones. And we could take over the
fucking world. With four good ones,
you could take over the world. You could do whatever
the fuck you want. You don't need a therapist.
You just meet them for coffee and they're honest with you.
That's a friend. Somebody goes, you're
slipping, dog.
Guys, I want to thank Duncan Trussell
for coming out and talking about what he spoke
about today. This was
hard today. If you guys, you
guys looked at me. I had tears in my eyes a couple
times. This was a hard podcast
and I'm very proud of Duncan coming up here
and talking about that. This makes the
process go by and I want to thank my
brother Lee for doing a fucking
great job as usual.
Where are you at the next couple weeks? Are you on
the road yet? Are you
anywhere? Oh no, I'm performing
at the laugh factory a couple of times next
week. Okay. That's it. Do you want to go to
Milwaukee with me and Joe on the 30th?
I don't know, man.
You ready for 10 minutes? Let me think about it.
I don't know if I'm ready to get back down the rut.
That's fucking, that's, listen.
I've never been in Milwaukee.
It's Benson Henderson against Anthony Peders.
I won't do an edible till then.
We'll save it.
This quail.
I ain't going to lie to you people.
I ain't going to lie to you people.
I ain't going to lie to you people.
This edible was a, this quailu was a dead tonight.
It wasn't, I should be falling off my chair.
Wanting to eat some pussy.
I got two more left.
We might pop, both of them on the way home.
I'm going to, you know, as usual, you know, we got.
got On It, who sponsors the podcast, and they're a great product.
They're a great product.
I want to give a shout out to Hulu Plus.
You get the 799 and two weeks for free, $7.99 a month, which is fucking nothing.
It's a bag of dope.
You know, when you get to watch everything.
And Dollar Shave Club, who I just got my stuff from.
And I got to tell you something, I'm really impressed.
A dollar a month for four fucking razors and a towel.
Are you kidding me?
All of these just go to the box, either pressing Joey or church or whatever.
It's church for On It and for Dollar Shave Club and Joey for Hulu Plus.
So go on there.
And anybody want to give a shout out to Duncan, any of your sponsors?
No, man.
I love you, Joey.
Thanks for putting me on the show.
You're a wonderful human.
I love you guys.
Thank you very much for supporting us here.
Any questions you guys want to?
Hit us with real quick.
We got like five minutes.
Any questions, anything?
You guys were a very serious audience tonight.
It's like you guys came from awake.
Everything all right with you, motherfuckers?
What's up, brother?
No.
Because we'll be here for two fucking hours.
You're following them.
It was a crazy night, and it was very funny, you know?
It was very embarrassing two days later.
I'm not going to lie to you.
But years later, it became a great joke,
and it's what busted me out, lighting her wig on fire.
I mean, who would a litter fucking hooker's wig on fire?
And I wanted to kick her and punch her, but I felt that light and her wig on fire heard her more.
You know, she probably waited on line for that wig or traded for a miniskirt or something.
This is probably too intensive a question to end it with, but when he just asked that, we talked a lot about being parents.
And I have no idea at all what it's about.
Like when people ask that, like, do you think about what you're going to say to Mercy when she's old enough?
Yeah, it was a mistake.
It was a mistake.
I corrected it and I moved down with my life.
You know, a mistake is something that you don't fucking correct.
That's what a mistake is when you don't fucking correct it.
Okay?
I made a mistake.
If it wasn't a mistake, I would have kidnapped people.
But before that, I was a burglar and a mugger.
Kidnapping was the epitome.
You follow me?
That was like the big move.
That was like my Broadway premiere.
It was the kidnapping, you know?
And I failed that and that's where I stopped.
I did my four years.
I did my probation.
I paid my fines and I moved on.
And am I a productive member of society?
Not really.
You know what a productive member is?
Somebody who finds a star
or somebody who finds a cure for fucking AIDS or cancer.
I'm not a productive member.
I made you fucking morons laugh.
Shame on you.
You know what I'm saying?
Shame on you.
You should fucking hang out with David Spade.
You know what I'm saying?
Or some shit.
But I'm living and I'm not mugging people anymore.
And I pay my taxes and I get up in the morning and I respect people.
I don't fucking make right turns without putting a blinker on.
And I don't pull over without putting a blink around.
I don't throw garbage out of my car.
That's a productive member of society.
And you help people.
I have nephews now.
And I talk to them and I have friends.
I have you guys.
That's a productive member of society.
And I can tell you I am and I'm a fake and I go,
church and I donate to the boys club and I give blood to the fucking humane society
fuck you I don't do none of that shit so donate blood to animals yeah whatever
sometimes any other questions on this side of the room what's up beautiful no no they don't
know they don't know about it no I didn't want them to know you know they're my friends
and I don't like Eddie I could have gone to Eddie for free and
why? You know, I would have put something on him, and I would have had to be, I'm not good
of Jiu-Too. I don't know anything about it. You know, I was used to hitting people with sticks
and mugging people and having a gun. So I wanted to start somewhere where nobody knew me,
where I could just be Joey Diaz and roll with people and learn what the fuck I was doing.
And it's been great, you know, and I mess around with some of Eddie's people, like Alder and
some of those guys, but none of them with those guys yet. I think that it's funny because I was
I was at dinner with Joe when I first started.
And I was sitting with one of those UFC guys
was sitting next to him, not a fighter,
but like an office guy that weighed like 145 pounds.
He's talking to Joe about rolling and how he heard his shoulder.
And Joe goes, listen, man, take it for me.
You don't want to roll with crazy people.
You don't want to roll with beginners.
So right there, I knew he wouldn't roll with me.
So like two days later, I said, you wouldn't roll with me, Joe Rogan?
That's a joke or something.
And what did he say?
He said something crazy.
No.
Like, no, it would never happen.
You know, you're a brood.
I don't, which I am.
I would never want to, you know, I'm a bull in a glass.
What is that?
Bull and a trash.
Yeah, I'm one of those guys.
Do you do Jiu-Jitsu?
No.
Oh.
All right, no questions.
I thought you wanted to roll.
I'm in no mood right now.
I love you guys.
