                                         that glamorous idea that they're gonna go and have an MMA fight and I would
                                         
                                         never discourage anybody from being an MMA fighter like I think you live and
                                         
                                         you die if you want to be a bull rider if you want to ride motocross if you
                                         
                                         want to drive Formula One race cars, all those things are dangerous.
                                         
                                         All those things are awesome.
                                         
                                         You know, live your life, man.
                                         
                                         I fought.
                                         
                                         I did it.
                                         
    
                                         It's not, I mean, I fought in Taekwondo and I kickboxed.
                                         
                                         It's fucking stupid.
                                         
                                         I did it for free.
                                         
                                         There was no money involved in it.
                                         
                                         I had no insurance.
                                         
                                         I had no health insurance.
                                         
                                         So I would never tell someone don't do anything dangerous.
                                         
                                         But you can't, I don't think you should dabble in that

                                         You would rather not?
                                         
                                         You'd rather just take insulin
                                         
                                         and just eat donuts?

                                         So I made the rookie.
                                         
    
                                         Naturally, before or after?
                                         
                                         Just always.
                                         
                                         I just don't trust people.
                                         
                                         So I just made the rookie mistake.
                                         
                                         You've heard the expression before, don't hire your friends and family.
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         And I hired only my friends and family.
                                         
                                         And I was like, know hey i don't

                                         because there's always in the back of their mind,
                                         
                                         they're like, Dave's not going to fire me.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Like he's my cousin or he's my best friend.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And then I was just sitting there going,
                                         
                                         how come I do have all this money
                                         
                                         and I hired all these guys
                                         
                                         and I'm overpaying the shit out of them
                                         
                                         and like I'm still at the office by myself, you know?
                                         
                                         So I fired everyone.
                                         
                                         I only hired people that are not my
                                         
    
                                         friends and white and I said no more Asians I'm only hiring white people oh
                                         
                                         man that's crazy racist yeah very racist Asians are very hard workers as long as
                                         
                                         they're not your family I don't know I just I just wanted to it's first of all
                                         
                                         yeah it's very racist and I was like – But it's okay because you're –
                                         
                                         I want to try something different.
                                         
                                         I already rode the yellow train.
                                         
                                         I'm going to get on the white train, you know?
                                         
                                         And so I hired people that I'm not friends – I'm friendly with, but they're not my homies.
                                         
    
                                         And then they were hired for specifically what their job was.
                                         
                                         Like if you're a trainer, then that's what I – you know, I'm not like, hey, I know you're not a trainer, but just do it.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And, uh, I found out with this next phase of the experiment that I immediately like
                                         
                                         befriended all of them.
                                         
                                         Like now they're all my best friends again.
                                         
                                         And, and even if I like critter, you know, I said, listen, I have diabetes.

                                         which it is most of the time
                                         
                                         but

                                         What you need is someone who's a dietician.
                                         
                                         Someone who's going to be, you can hire a professional chef.
                                         
                                         Kevin James used to have this guy who worked for him.
                                         
                                         It was fantastic.
                                         
                                         He had this guy working for him all day.
                                         
                                         The guy would cook all these meals, and he would leave pre-prepared like really healthy meals in his refrigerator
                                         
                                         then he hired some woman to do it after that all right so i did that for a little bit like i got

                                         today and then like at three in the morning still go out and get the burrito and um so the thing I'm doing now, which I already can see, it's horrible.
                                         
                                         And everyone says it doesn't work.
                                         
                                         But now I'm sort of like stuck in this weird thing is I, it's like the whole, I want, I'm like, no one's like diets aren't going to work.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         This has to be a lifestyle change.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Like you can't like go for three months eating salads and then be like, hey, I got my weight
                                         
                                         down.
                                         
                                         I got my cholesterol down.
                                         
                                         I got my diabetes down.
                                         
    
                                         And then going back to it, it's like you have to have, but I'm like, but I love food.
                                         
                                         Like I love eating.
                                         
                                         And so the thing I'm doing now, which I didn't have put too much research into is chewing
                                         
                                         and spitting.
                                         
                                         There's.
                                         
                                         I know guys who did that with meat
                                         
                                         there's some mma fighters like diego sanchez was doing that for a while he wouldn't eat meat he
                                         
                                         would just chew it up it's horrible for you spit it is it really it's horrible for you because
                                         
    
                                         first of all so you get like so stomach acids yeah i'll order like three entrees i'll get
                                         
                                         spaghetti fried chicken steak i'll get pie i order everything. It's just like Roman times gluttony to the max, right?
                                         
                                         And I'll have like, the worst is if it's at a nice restaurant,
                                         
                                         because then they don't have the, they have like cloth napkins.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, can you bring some more of those paper napkins?
                                         
                                         And I'm sitting there and I'm like, and I'm just chewing everything,
                                         
                                         getting all the flavor out of it.
                                         
                                         And then I'm spitting it, which the mouth, as soon as it starts chewing and making saliva,
                                         
    
                                         the stomach starts making acid to prepare for the food to come down.
                                         
                                         But if the food never comes down, there's just like acid in your stomach, you know?
                                         
                                         And also, when you eat, all the sugar already goes into your, like before it hits your stomach, you know?
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         Check this out.
                                         
                                         So my Japanese business partner, I work with this company, Good Smile.

                                         rich guy shit he gets all like a lot of his blood taken out and then they do shit to it like they
                                         
                                         make it into super blood and then he puts it back into him and then all everything goes down his his you
                                         
                                         know and i go what is that and they're like it's not it's not fda whatever test it's not in america
                                         
                                         yet and so well i do this thing called regenequin and i had it done today actually my shoulder's
                                         
                                         been bothering me they you take they take your blood out right and they uh spin it in a centrifuge
                                         
                                         and apply heat to it.
                                         
                                         And so your blood thinks like it has a fever, and it creates this anti-inflammatory response.
                                         
                                         It creates this yellow serum, and then they extract the yellow serum out of your blood,
                                         
    
                                         and then they inject it directly in the areas where you have inflammation.
                                         
                                         It's really good for injuries, but it's also like when you do it, like I did it today,
                                         
                                         your energy, you just feel great.
                                         
                                         You feel great right now.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Dana White told me about it because he has an inner ear infection, an issue rather called
                                         
                                         Meniere's disease.
                                         
                                         And it's from, he got beat up one time when he was young by a bunch of guys.
                                         
    
                                         And he gets this tinnitus like ringing in his ear and it fucks with his balance and
                                         
                                         shit.
                                         
                                         And it's all inflammation.
                                         
                                         Well, they figured out a way to inject this serum made out of your blood, and it totally cured it for him.
                                         
                                         He went through surgeries.
                                         
                                         He was on medication.
                                         
                                         He did a bunch of shit that really fucked with him.
                                         
                                         But this stuff, instead of fucking with him, it uses your own blood, and it made him feel fantastic.
                                         
    
                                         And he used to have to go to Germany for it.
                                         
                                         And I was going to fly to Germany to go do this, but then they started opening these places around.
                                         
                                         Now they have one, Lifespan Medicine in Santa Monica. Iica i did it this morning well this is what i'm talking about
                                         
                                         joe it's like i get the whole like you need to suffer to like you know but but that's for
                                         
                                         injuries i know but it's like do you have any injuries you could use as an excuse to get this
                                         
                                         i'm just saying like the the way technology is going now like you're covered in tattoos but like
                                         
                                         you know in five years they're gonna have some ray that just gets rid of all your tattoos. They already do.
                                         
                                         They have lasers.
                                         
    
                                         Right, but it's not good right now.
                                         
                                         Well, it's painful.
                                         
                                         But it'll get, and they'll make it so it's not, they're going to have everything soon.
                                         
                                         So I'm like, do I need to really switch my eating habits?
                                         
                                         Or are they going to make some Oculus Rift fake hamburger where I'm like, oh yeah, it's delicious.
                                         
                                         And I don't know.
                                         
                                         This is my take on it.
                                         
                                         I think gluttony and eating like lots of delicious food is fun right but feeling like
                                         
    
                                         shit is not fun and what i like to do is have cheat days what i like to do is i eat real like
                                         
                                         this is what i've eaten today so far i had a blended juice drink which was like celery uh ginger carrot uh cucumber i'm trying to remember all the cayenne
                                         
                                         pepper uh oregano oil lemon all this stuff fantastic for you right that's what i had for
                                         
                                         breakfast and the only thing i i um ate this morning is two-day unshaved pussy lips and
                                         
                                         slight hint of urinary tract infection.
                                         
                                         That's the only thing I ate today.
                                         
                                         And I feel great.
                                         
                                         I don't know if you're going to feel great in a couple of hours once the fucking infection
                                         
    
                                         kicks in.
                                         
                                         I got an iron stomach.
                                         
                                         But I will go to fucking In-N-Out Burger, man.
                                         
                                         I'll fuck up.
                                         
                                         I had Popeye's chicken last night, dude.
                                         
                                         And so because you ate that, that's why you got to eat this weird ginger drink this morning.
                                         
                                         Well, because I eat primarily healthy.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
    
                                         Primarily healthy.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But then occasionally I go off the rails.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But most of the time, my body's getting healthy food.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         That's the key because you feel better, man.
                                         
                                         And you feel good.
                                         
    
                                         You will feel better.
                                         
                                         I feel great.
                                         
                                         You'll feel better.
                                         
                                         You'll have more energy.
                                         
                                         I drink these blended kale shakes in the morning.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I make them myself.
                                         
                                         I throw kale.
                                         
    
                                         Kale tastes like shit.
                                         
                                         Tastes like shit.
                                         
                                         Shit.
                                         
                                         Why don't you use spinach? You can do that too. But I like too but i like kale okay it's a superfood spinach is a superfood too

                                         in it it's really good for you what's better kale or spinach probably with the probably kale because
                                         
                                         a little darker a little greener that's the key like dark green leafy vegetables they have phytonutrients and all sorts of vitamins and stuff and you get something out of them first

                                         take a nap i'm like yes well you you know i think you're enjoying your success you're enjoying your
                                         
    
                                         wealth and you're enjoying pleasure and that's a're enjoying your wealth, and you're enjoying pleasure.
                                         
                                         And that's a part of who you are.
                                         
                                         And that's also, I think, one of the things about artists is artists are very indulgent.
                                         
                                         I'm telling that about my comedian friends.
                                         
                                         You think so?
                                         
                                         Yeah, you're very indulgent.
                                         
                                         And very self-destructive.
                                         
                                         You're a natural comedian.
                                         
    
                                         You are a natural stand-up comedian.
                                         
                                         You did a thing at, was it at UCLA?

                                         First time.

                                         Probably 15 or 16.

                                         Because he was clearly a dork.
                                         
                                         Right.

                                         I would draw all like Conan the Barbarian and ninjas and werewolves.
                                         
    
                                         I would draw shit that I would like to buy. Teenage boy shit.

                                         That's Little Red Riding Hood.
                                         
                                         I did a whole series of little kid stories that went wrong.
                                         
                                         Three little pigs. There's a werewolf who fucking just attacks the pigs right i had humpty dumpty i'll pull that one up
                                         
    
                                         eventually humpty dumpty with an axe you're an artist everybody up you're an artist yeah well
                                         
                                         i certainly was that's what i was gonna do for a living until i started fighting and then when i
                                         
                                         started fighting i became completely obsessed with that because it was so primal and so much
                                         
                                         different than anything else i'd ever done this is see we have the same story up until then or even up until
                                         
                                         then because in high school i drew like that too like crazy detail whatever and then i started

                                         I didn't do that. Oh, you mean fighting? Yeah, I only had like one fight in high school and it wasn't really much of a fight
                                         
                                         Well one other time where it did this the best one

                                         We weren't even like fighting. It's like he was this kid like they bust these
                                         
                                         These black kids
                                         
                                         in from bad neighborhoods right newton south high yeah and there's this one kid um and me and him
                                         
                                         we still look at each other like in the hallway and like you know he would stare at me and i would
                                         
                                         stare at him nothing really happened but then one day we were in the locker room together and i was
                                         
    
                                         passing him he looked at me and uh i don't remember what was said, but I remember the dude grabbed me and hip-tossed me down to the ground,
                                         
                                         threw me on my back, and held me down.
                                         
                                         He was thinking about punching me.
                                         
                                         He was holding me, and just held me, and then let me up.
                                         
                                         I was totally humiliated.
                                         
                                         Totally humiliated.
                                         
                                         You said the N-word with the E-R?
                                         
                                         No, no, no, no, no.
                                         
    
                                         I didn't say anything.
                                         
                                         I'm kidding.
                                         
                                         I think I said, like, what the fuck, or something like that.
                                         
                                         But I realized, oh, my God, I don't know how to wrestle. I think I was probably 14. I was like, God damn it, I didn't say anything. I'm kidding. I mean, I think I said like, what the fuck, you know, or something like when he was holding. But I realized, oh my God, I don't know how to wrestle.
                                         
                                         I think I was probably 14.
                                         
                                         I was like, God damn it, I don't know.
                                         
                                         I need to learn how to wrestle.
                                         
                                         But that humiliating feeling, you like, I don't want to ever feel that again.
                                         
    
                                         It was terrible.
                                         
                                         I'd never, I'd taken like a couple karate classes before then, but no grappling whatsoever.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         So at the same time, I joined the wrestling team and I started getting really serious
                                         
                                         about Taekwondo at the very same time.
                                         
                                         And it was because of that dude.
                                         
                                         Like, I owe him.
                                         
                                         He made me who I became, like, for real, because he humiliated the shit out of me.
                                         
    
                                         But looking at, like, that changed your course down that path.
                                         
                                         But if that never happened and you stuck with the art, I mean, that looks pretty good, man.
                                         
                                         Well, I enjoyed art.
                                         
                                         I still do.
                                         
                                         I still draw.
                                         
                                         I was drawing my kids.
                                         
                                         Do you draw like that?
                                         
                                         Yeah, I could still draw like that. I mean, do you want to? Yeah, I like cross-hatching and all that stuff, yeah. Well, I enjoyed art. I still do. I still draw. I was drawing my kids. Do you draw like that? Yeah, I could still draw like that.
                                         
    
                                         I mean, do you want to?
                                         
                                         Yeah, I like cross hatching and all that stuff.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I love cross hatching.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I love, I love, I like to do like pencil and then ballpoint pen over the pencil.
                                         
                                         That's like my favorite style.
                                         
                                         I have some other stuff that I'll put up that I did like that.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I want to check it out.
                                         
                                         Because like technical pens, I always found to be like a little too permanent.
                                         
                                         Like I like seeing like the, I feel like with a ballpoint pen, you can almost barely touch the paper,
                                         
                                         and the image just starts to slowly come out.
                                         
                                         Do this with your kids.
                                         
                                         Ballpoint pen, draw on bananas.
                                         
                                         That sensation of a ballpoint pen on a banana is the best thing.
                                         
                                         And then the next day when the banana peel dries up, the drawing looks different.
                                         
    
                                         My kids love art, man.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         It's a fun thing.
                                         
                                         But my progression was the same thing.
                                         
                                         Everything in high school was this shit, like cross hatching, pen, pencil, prisma colors.
                                         
                                         And then, you know, I discovered spray paint, which was like the fucking, like the best thing ever.
                                         
                                         It's like, oh my God, I discovered the matrix, you know?
                                         
                                         And then acrylic and oil paint. like the best thing ever it's like oh my god i discovered the matrix you know and then um
                                         
    
                                         acrylic and oil paint but what i discovered now after painting and drawing for years is that
                                         
                                         all those things i just said spray paint oil acrylic is you just even pencils like you draw
                                         
                                         something you you create something and if you don't like it you just paint over it you just erase it and then uh the new thing that like i just that this is like like alchemy or like painting
                                         
                                         with with magic is the watercolor it's like it's like the medium in art that has like i'd probably
                                         
                                         say like the least amount of respect because it's like oh watercolor you think of like old ladies
                                         
                                         you know on sunday why is that i don't know but like this whole book that i did is all watercolors it's like 300 pages of watercolors and i'm like you know i'm a pretty

                                         like self-publish it and i don't want to self-publish it that's like in the same way like i

                                         you know it's art i well it's art and i thought like we lived in america i thought you could do
                                         
                                         whatever you know right and i keep i don't know i guess i keep pushing things and finding out that
                                         
                                         you can't do them but you can you can you just can't do it in their forum right that's all it is and i i go what's the problem they're like we might get sued i go well by who i don't
                                         
    
                                         know it's always like this preemptive like this imaginary fear and i i go we need people like you
                                         
                                         out there i go look like and i was excited because i was like oh these are like the publishers that
                                         
                                         i like i would love to work with you and i go so i i you know i i put the book out
                                         
                                         myself and it's like we we sold it out like the special edition right away if you want to get it
                                         
                                         at davidshow.com but it's we made so much money on it on the you know i don't want to say this
                                         
                                         like i'm bragging but it's like i didn't even want to make that money right like i would rather
                                         
                                         someone else make that money i just wanted to put it out, but it's like,
                                         
                                         they wouldn't do it.
                                         
    
                                         So you had to do it yourself.
                                         
                                         And that,
                                         
                                         that's sort of, I bring that up because I'd rather just,
                                         
                                         it's so easy to just do a video on and throw it up on YouTube.
                                         
                                         That's so easy.
                                         
                                         I don't want to fucking find,
                                         
                                         you know,
                                         
                                         it's like,
                                         
    
                                         I just want to make shit and just put it out there.
                                         
                                         But everything I do gets taken down.
                                         
                                         So I just got to,
                                         
                                         you know,
                                         
                                         it's just,
                                         
                                         you're,
                                         
                                         you're an unusual guy in an unusual
                                         
                                         an unusual situation and you want to be free you want to be free to express yourself and you know
                                         
    
                                         someone could say like oh fuck him and he's this and he's that and he's arrogant and he's this
                                         
                                         but no you're you you're being free you're not worried you're not being a fake you are actually
                                         
                                         doing things that you're interested in and in a lot of ways this is a real problem that we have in society with needing
                                         
                                         someone to publish your stuff because if you need someone to publish your stuff
                                         
                                         then they're gonna have to approve it and then you're not gonna get the
                                         
                                         original vision of the artist or the writer or whatever you're gonna get a
                                         
                                         bunch of other people's in pin opinions of what you should broadcast where you
                                         
                                         should publish well look can I ask you this because you are like

                                         projects before would have told me to take down my website.
                                         
                                         Take down your message board.
                                         
                                         I'm like, fuck you.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         I'm not taking down shit.
                                         
                                         Because if you want me to do that, you want me to compromise myself.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         It's going to start there and it's going to end up with me wearing a fucking suit, sitting
                                         
                                         behind a desk, talking to some idiot about a sitcom that I give two fucks about.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         That's what happens.
                                         
    
                                         And it's a weird thing because it's like, I didn't give a shit when I was poor.
                                         
                                         I didn't give a shit
                                         
                                         when I was rich.
                                         
                                         And then it's like,
                                         
                                         what, now I'm going
                                         
                                         to have a boss?
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         It's weird.
                                         
    
                                         You don't have to do that.
                                         
                                         Just do things

                                         Let's put it this way.
                                         
    
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         What's the benefit
                                         
                                         of you doing something
                                         
                                         on television?
                                         
                                         Other than Vice,
                                         
                                         which is an awesome show, and Anthony Bourdain's show, which is anthony bourdain show which is an awesome show doing things like that is great
                                         
                                         but what's the benefit of you doing a television do you need more money you don't know it's not
                                         
                                         to do more money it's just like to do projects it's just for me like i don't know i just filmed
                                         
    
                                         this pilot um where just yeah it's not for the money they don't even have to pay me anything
                                         
                                         but what's the benefit it's like i get to fly somewhere and i get to like like doing a show like this we can say
                                         
                                         anything we want but or we could talk about like oh i want to make this movie and talk about the
                                         
                                         ideas but this is like put making it happen you know it's like but you could do that i know but
                                         
                                         it's like the thing with the publishing it's so much easier for like when i showed up on
                                         
                                         bourdain set like it's all taken care i was like wow this producer called everyone this cameraman's like

                                         shit I've ever said on Fear Factor never made it to the air exactly cuz I would with the
                                         
                                         contestants and say ridiculous I would love to see knew wasn't going to be on the air.

                                         But you got to understand that that's not what they're trying to do.
                                         
                                         Their business is not the business of artistic expression.
                                         
                                         Their business is the business of making money.
                                         
                                         What's the best way to optimize their chance to make money?
                                         
                                         You got to get a real cookie cutter bullshit television show.

                                         But they're saying that then there's no audience for a Fear F type show where joe fucks with the contestants there is there is but

                                         about they were like we can get more money from advertisement if you stop saying this or you
                                         
                                         stop saying that or don't do this or do it.
                                         
                                         And that's when he went crazy or maybe went sane and decided, you know what?
                                         
                                         I got some money.
                                         
                                         And they had a $50 million offer to fucking renew and this and that.
                                         
                                         And he just said, fuck this.
                                         
                                         He went to Africa, tried to relax and find himself and came back and he quit the fucking
                                         
                                         show.
                                         
    
                                         And he quit the show because they were turning him into something else right they were trying to take this uncensored brilliant
                                         
                                         artistic mind and make him a commodity right and that's what happens man but that's their business
                                         
                                         it's not that's like it's like being along with a wolf and the wolf eats you when it's hungry
                                         
                                         of course it's a fucking wolf right that's what they do right it's like you can't be upset at a wolf for eating you that's that's their nature
                                         
                                         and the nature of people that run these these production studios and networks they're not evil
                                         
                                         right they just make money and the way to make money how much money can you get from toyota well
                                         
                                         toyota will give you x amount of money if you don't have any swears. They'll give you X more if you cut out this and don't do that.
                                         
                                         They'll sign on for three years, a three-year commitment.
                                         
    
                                         That's the way that shit works.
                                         
                                         It's just about maximizing profit.
                                         
                                         I've worked every job.
                                         
                                         I've worked in advertising.
                                         
                                         I've done all that shit.
                                         
                                         When I made the fuck you money, I sat down and I have five guys that work with me now
                                         
                                         and I had a meeting and I said, the point of what we do, and it's never been, and especially
                                         
                                         now, is to not make money.
                                         
    
                                         You know, I know I could sit here and talk to you about like, should you turn into subscription
                                         
                                         based or ads and this and that.
                                         
                                         We've never had ads on my show because I don't have to.
                                         
                                         And it's like, it would be nice if we made stuff that did make money, but that is never,
                                         
                                         you know, the last three years like
                                         
                                         everything i do just like hemorrhages and bleeds money but you know i can sell one painting and make that money back in one day and you know it's like i don't people have had this discussion
                                         
                                         before when when they're at 7-eleven buying a scratcher or super lotto ticket and they're like
                                         
                                         man if i had a hundred million dollars this is what i would do but it's like in this country and i don't want to go on a diatribe about greed or whatever it's like
                                         
    
                                         when is it enough right like when is it like so you got to show uh that like the chapelle show
                                         
                                         and he wants to say nigger just let him say it like he feels good he's allowed to say it
                                         
                                         you know it's like they are not chapelle so when you have people that are not creative people or
                                         
                                         not they're certainly not responsible for his creative vision right and they start interfering
                                         
                                         with it and trying to monetize it that's when it becomes a problem when it isn't a problem
                                         
                                         is when you who is the artist is in complete control like a podcast like your dvd asa podcast
                                         
                                         or like hong dynasty or any of this other shit you do like all of your paintings no one's standing over you and go Dave stop painting tits you know you're painting
                                         
                                         vagina you're making women objects you're doing this you're doing that you you can't be you if
                                         
    
                                         that's happening and look maybe some people are going to criticize you and maybe you'll take that
                                         
                                         criticism to heart and it'll change your opinion about things which is totally honest and fine
                                         
                                         if someone says hey you know hey Dave I'm tired of you painting, blah, blah, blah, and then you go,
                                         
                                         you know what?
                                         
                                         I don't want anybody to feel bad.
                                         
                                         I'm just trying to express myself.
                                         
                                         Maybe I wasn't looking at it from their point of view, and then you could sort of alter
                                         
                                         your point of view.
                                         
    
                                         There's nothing negative about that.
                                         
                                         It's part of developing, maturing, growing, taking in all sorts of different influences.
                                         
                                         It's a part of being a human being.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But there's a big difference between that and doing it only for money.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And that's what happens when you get attached to a network.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
    
                                         And it's not their fault.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         It's just what they do.
                                         
                                         But it's why, like, I've never talked to anybody about selling this thing.
                                         
                                         I would never sell this thing.
                                         
                                         This is just, we started this out, Brian and I.
                                         
                                         It would go bad the day that happened.
                                         
                                         Of course.
                                         
    
                                         100%. They'd fuck everything up. Right. They'd say, you got to stop, Brian and I. It would go bad the day that happened. Of course, 100%.
                                         
                                         They'd fuck everything up.
                                         
                                         They'd say, you got to stop smoking weed.
                                         
                                         You guys got lit joints everywhere.

                                         fucking stoner dollar we're people i pay taxes okay i'm in the fucking nra god damn it right
                                         
                                         there's there's a real problem when people try to take creative ideas and turn those creative ideas into some sort of a complete monetary venture.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And that's what happens
                                         
                                         when you get involved with a television show.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         It's just what it is.
                                         
                                         There's some sort of compromise involved.
                                         
    
                                         You don't have to do that.
                                         
                                         Here's the problem, Joe.
                                         
                                         It's like, when I paint something,
                                         
                                         it's like, some people will see it.
                                         
                                         If I have it in an art gallery,
                                         
                                         I don't go to art galleries.
                                         
                                         It's like, the spectrum of media is like this right it's like at the top is network television like blockbuster
                                         
                                         hollywood movies and then video games or maybe video games is at the top and then it's like
                                         
    
                                         uh you know music and then you know books comic books and at the very bottom is art right
                                         
                                         so at the very top there's the most censorship there's the most like people with their people involved um you can't say this you can't do that
                                         
                                         dolphin tail too right and at the very bottom is uh is art where i can paint anything anything
                                         
                                         and no one cares and it's not literal right not only that it's a direct connection to the art
                                         
                                         right you have your hands on the brush.
                                         
                                         You're standing in front of the canvas.
                                         
                                         There's no one there.
                                         
                                         You're alone in your warehouse.
                                         
    
                                         It's a solitary sport.
                                         
                                         No one's involved.
                                         
                                         Sort of like jerking off.
                                         
                                         A lot of cross-hatching.
                                         
                                         And you draw this thing.
                                         
                                         And it means whatever it means to whoever.
                                         
                                         To me, it means this.
                                         
                                         To you, it means that.
                                         
    
                                         There's very little
                                         
                                         chances of you becoming like a fucking billionaire drawing comic books but you know you get to say
                                         
                                         you what dollar can you put on freedom like that but now because this weird anomaly of where i did
                                         
                                         make like all this money doing art the floodgates have opened for me to do all types of entertainment and not to sound too like
                                         
                                         artsy or whatever i look at everything i do as art i look at my podcast my tv stuff i i bring that level of expression and freedom to it and then it just is not translating well with the
                                         
                                         higher ups i guess and it's like hey you could do whatever you want over here but don't there's no
                                         
                                         higher ups, bro.
                                         
                                         I know, there isn't.
                                         
    
                                         They can all suck your dick.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         There's no higher ups, man.
                                         
                                         I mean, this all comes down to other people influencing your creative vision.
                                         
                                         And you can't ever let that happen.
                                         
                                         Because your creative vision is what makes you unique.
                                         
                                         You know, when I talked about being an artist or wanting to be an artist in high school and having this bad art teacher i mean i honestly
                                         
                                         do feel bad for the dude because he was really frumpy and he had a gut and his fucking posture
                                         
    
                                         was bad and he just was a guy who just had no hope and what he said to me was like i would draw all
                                         
                                         this stuff and he was like you got to do like you you're gonna have to draw things that you don't
                                         
                                         want to draw right and i said why and he said because you're gonna have to make a living
                                         
                                         So if you're gonna have to make a living maybe you're gonna work for
                                         
                                         This is the thing the example to use you're gonna have to draw babies for a
                                         
                                         Diaper commercial and I was like, but I want to be a comic book artist and he's like
                                         
                                         But you know may not make it as a comic book artist was like oh fuck this so my senior year
                                         
                                         I didn't even take art.
                                         
    
                                         I was one of the best artists in his class.
                                         
                                         There was me, this guy, I think his name was John DeVore.
                                         
                                         He was really good.
                                         
                                         And this guy, Kevin, who was also really good.
                                         
                                         These three guys.
                                         
                                         And we all used to draw the same style stuff.
                                         
                                         I don't know if they became artists.
                                         
                                         I don't know what happened.
                                         
    
                                         You didn't keep in touch with them?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         High school was weird, man.

                                         I forgot Drew Struzan.

                                         These guys all draw that same style and you draw the movie poster and then they give that to the photographer.
                                         
                                         And then the photographer, because, you know, there's no art in movie posters now right and this is i'm talking about

                                         And then at night, I could draw whatever I want, AR-15s and buttholes.
                                         
                                         Right.

                                         to draw in the Drew Struzan style of Chris O'Donnell.

                                         What is in your head?
                                         
                                         How do you get it out?

                                         And then what always happens is because it's so unique and whatever it does

                                         She's been doing art since she was really little.
                                         
                                         Is this oil paint or what?
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I got with her when she was really little
                                         
                                         to sit down and do a lot of art together.
                                         
                                         That's amazing.
                                         
                                         She's talented.
                                         
                                         I got my art from my uncle.
                                         
                                         I got it from my family.
                                         
                                         My grandmother was talented.
                                         
                                         My uncle's talented. My uncle's an artist. Right it's all just it's it's in the family you know what I think about when I see that it's like have you ever seen this is gonna sound bad but have you ever seen Hitler's art yes I have yeah it's it's it's good but it's very like you would think a guy that is a murderer and like has murdered like millions of people would have like a more hardcore you know yeah it's like that's great if you're six years like first of all
                                         
    
                                         the thing joe just showed me looked like a grown adult it freaks me out the the mountains and
                                         
                                         shit like the snow in the mountains so when you're at that age like the tiger woods michael jordan
                                         
                                         like young person and like you're you're learning you're like picasso whatever like you're you're learning your like picasso whatever like you're learning your um just
                                         
                                         techniques techniques and just getting all that stuff down perspective you get it down and you're
                                         
                                         like wow i can paint a tree with all the highlights off the leaves and the dew drops and that's great
                                         
                                         that's like the time to do that but then at some point you have to be like what's inside me is it
                                         
                                         really a landscape or do i want to paint some crazy shit?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         And so, like, she's great.
                                         
                                         She has the potential.
                                         
                                         Like, everyone has the potential, right?
                                         
                                         They get to a point.
                                         
                                         It's like, you discovered fighting, but if you never got into fighting,
                                         
                                         I think you would have been a great artist doing, you know,
                                         
                                         all your werewolf stuff.

                                         and he took a bunch of different medications,
                                         
                                         but one of them is he took meth.
                                         
    
                                         Oh, wow.
                                         
                                         Yeah, which totally makes sense.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         One of the things they say with meth
                                         
                                         is that it completely corrodes your judgment.
                                         
                                         Your judgment just goes out the window.

                                         The guy's head is cut off.
                                         
                                         It's on a plate.

                                         Okay, so let me ask you, Joe.
                                         
                                         You have your show where you get drunk and you critique UFC fights.
                                         
                                         You have this show.
                                         
                                         You have all these forms of expression.
                                         
                                         You have stand-up comedy every night.
                                         
                                         Do you think art is the best?
                                         
                                         Not for monetizing
                                         
    
                                         reasons or fans or whatever just when i draw something and i express and i don't have to like
                                         
                                         write literally and i just go wow and that that fucking brushstroke it captures exactly what's
                                         
                                         going on isn't that like the best feeling like i don't know what's going on that kevorkian shit but
                                         
                                         that most guy must have had so much shit that that release of painting shit like that is just so therapeutic to me.
                                         
                                         Yeah, there's definitely something beautiful about creating something because you know that it didn't exist before you put your attention to it.
                                         
                                         You put your attention to that piece of paper or that piece of clay or whatever you're creating, and you made something out of it.
                                         
                                         And it existed because you put your attention to it and whatever it is inside of you right whatever creativity is it's undefined
                                         
                                         it's like you're you're god creating something out of nothing you know like there's there's
                                         
    
                                         nothing here and you create it and then like just not to harp on it or sound you know it's
                                         
                                         just with the young people you know because i'm sure young people talk to you all the time and I don't, I don't want to sound delusional saying, Oh, it's easy
                                         
                                         for you or guys like Joe.
                                         
                                         But the saddest thing is when you enslave yourself at such a young age and throw yourself
                                         
                                         into like, yes, there's people that need to be parking meter cops.
                                         
                                         There's people that need to be work at ad agencies or whatever.
                                         
                                         It doesn't need to be you.
                                         
                                         It doesn't need to be me, but it doesn't need to be the person who's listening to me that i'm saying it doesn't need to be you it doesn't
                                         
    
                                         need to be you there's a lot of fucking people man right and somebody will fall prey to that trap
                                         
                                         this is this is like my best advice on that whole thing it's yeah there's people that fall that
                                         
                                         trap it's like you're young you can fuck up and you'll still be young like and then try again and
                                         
                                         it's like i get you know i'm sure you have a lot of people that
                                         
                                         are like your fans that go, you did it. And I, you're my idol and I worship you and this and
                                         
                                         that. And so you did it. So that makes me feel like I can do it. And my whole thing with that is
                                         
                                         like the whole, like, follow your dreams, definitely follow your dreams, you know,
                                         
                                         like definitely go for like your dreams and everything. But like what gets my dick really
                                         
    
                                         hard is like when i'm at
                                         
                                         ihop and the guy takes my pancake order and he's like you know we have three new different syrups
                                         
                                         for that and like if you do this it's a better combo and he knows his job and he runs to get me
                                         
                                         the syrup and i'm like this guy maybe doesn't want to be ihop uh waiter for his whole life but the
                                         
                                         time he's here he's passionate about it He's bringing all of his energy to it.
                                         
                                         And then if I hop a waiter isn't ultimately what he ends up doing, he's going to bring that.
                                         
                                         You know, it's like just I like try to do not everyone's going to be the best artist.
                                         
                                         Not everyone's going to be the best actor.
                                         
    
                                         It's like so when your dreams get crushed, you know, it's like be fucking awesome at your job, even if it's not what you like wanted to do and
                                         
                                         then like i don't know i i think about chefs a lot now because i'm friends with a lot of celebrity
                                         
                                         chefs that's not a fucking that you're serving you make food for people that's not a glamorous
                                         
                                         thing which like my friends like david chang and bourdain it's becoming more glamorous because they
                                         
                                         took a shitty job where it's like fuck i to stand on my feet and wear these weird clog shoes all day.
                                         
                                         And all this is too salty and take it back.
                                         
                                         It's like a shitty job.
                                         
                                         You're like a servant.
                                         
    
                                         But they took that job and they made it glamorous.
                                         
                                         They fucking brought their fucking rock star passion energy to it.
                                         
                                         And now it's like, you know, I went to a chef convention, this thing, Mad Symposium in Copenhagen.
                                         
                                         It's like, you know, I went to a chef convention, this thing, Mad Symposium in Copenhagen.
                                         
                                         And I mean, there's guys with like knife tattoos and weird facial piercings. And I'm like, is this like a rock star convention or something?
                                         
                                         And so they're artists.
                                         
                                         Well, yeah.
                                         
                                         And they brought that to that.
                                         
    
                                         And so I'm just like, be fucking dope at your job, whatever it is.
                                         
                                         Well, I think being a chef is being an artist.
                                         
                                         I really do.
                                         
                                         I think it's cuisine is a
                                         
                                         form of art and the different flavors that you can definitely in someone's mouth there's this
                                         
                                         there's an art to that without i i really learned that from bourdain yeah watching his show right
                                         
                                         and the passion that he has for it like it's contagious it makes you yeah guys like bourdain
                                         
                                         brought that to that brought it to your attention and so now it's like you meet kids that are like, I want to be a chef when I grow up.
                                         
    
                                         And it's like that really didn't exist before.
                                         
                                         Everybody has something that they're really into.
                                         
                                         Some people are really into riding horses.
                                         
                                         I couldn't give a fuck about riding horses.
                                         
                                         Some people are really into fill in the blank.
                                         
                                         It's a matter of what your personality fits best with and trying to pursue it one of the most
                                         
                                         insidious things that happens to young kids is not just the compromising early and falling into a
                                         
                                         slave job it's being saddled with debt right being saddled with debt right off the bat that happens
                                         
    
                                         so fucking often man right so often kids go to school and then they accrue fucking $300,000 in school debt.
                                         
                                         And then they get out and they're fucked.
                                         
                                         They're a slave.
                                         
                                         And they almost did it to themselves.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Well, like someone will tell them like, look, college isn't four years now.
                                         
                                         It's more like five to six years.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         You're going to be like a quarter mil in the hole when you get out.
                                         
                                         And we're not going to teach you anything here that's going to teach you how to make money.
                                         
                                         You're just going to know a lot about psychology.
                                         
                                         Well, especially if you're doing something technologically based.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         By the time you get out, years later, that stuff's all...
                                         
                                         Yeah, and a lot of these professors are like dinosaurs.
                                         
                                         They're teaching you some shit that's irrelevant now.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, there's a lot of that, for sure.
                                         
                                         And it's just also the idea of wanting to figure out what you want to do with your life and having to choose at 18.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         You're a baby.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         When you're 18 years old, you're a baby.
                                         
                                         You've only been alive for 18 years.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
    
                                         That's nothing.
                                         
                                         That's not even anything.
                                         
                                         The last couple years is the first years you've been able to make your own decisions.
                                         
                                         Right.

                                         A person who has a regular job, bartender, fucking, I don't know, something where you make, like, you're middle class.
                                         
                                         What does it cost for a person who's not a prostitute, who's single, who has a normal job, to just go up to them them and go I will pay any amount of money to fuck you is it the Robert Redford movie

                                         that's the real problem with the whole idea of prostitution is the shame.
                                         
                                         And every girl I asked, they're like, I don't know, five grand, three grand, two grand.

                                         Forget about talking about heads of companies and this and that.
                                         
                                         It's like, wow, I'm really like, oh my God, this girl that I just met won't fuck me.

                                         I'm throwing myself under the bus constantly with my own show.
                                         
                                         And were you doing it to get a reaction when you were doing all this stuff?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Basically what happened was my friend who's a lawyer said, dude, you're getting into a lot of trouble.
                                         
                                         And when I sit, so I'm, I'm like, here's a show I don't have to do at all.
                                         
                                         It's costing me money, time, headache.
                                         
                                         There's like weird stalkers hanging out outside.
                                         
                                         You know, it's like, it was getting bad.
                                         
    
                                         It was ruining my life.
                                         
                                         And, and everyone's like, why are you doing it I'm like cuz it feels good because it's impulsive cuz I like it you know I'll so he goes look
                                         
                                         there's a lot of people that you're talking about that they don't want you
                                         
                                         to talk about them right they have real lives they have real jobs I'd say almost
                                         
                                         every like celebrity we've had on our show is asked to take the show down or have it edited
                                         
                                         except for joe joe was cool um but uh he said look if you want to tell a story about like like
                                         
                                         let's say michael jordan i don't know michael jordan but like say you were friends with michael
                                         
                                         jordan you want to tell a story about michael jordan and it's not say a famous white baseball
                                         
    
                                         player so then it's like still a famous person you know he's like
                                         
                                         change the race if the point of the story isn't who it is and but what happened right and change
                                         
                                         the race change the um uh when it happened and change like as many details without fucking up
                                         
                                         the story you know and so it was our third show of the day and my show show was like chaotic. I mean, you've been on.
                                         
                                         There's like six people talking over each other at the same time.
                                         
                                         And I was trying to tell this story and no one was paying attention.
                                         
                                         And I don't listen.
                                         
                                         Like when this show ends, do you listen to yourself?
                                         
    
                                         No.
                                         
                                         I never listen to myself.
                                         
                                         And that was the one time where I was like, man, these guys aren't listening.
                                         
                                         So I exaggerated a little.
                                         
                                         All the bad shit that happened to me, I deserved it.
                                         
                                         I never should have told the

                                         when you're doing a podcast because sometimes you're just trying to be entertaining i've seen
                                         
                                         people exaggerate stories i know i know i've been on podcasts before Where people have told stories
                                         
                                         That I know what really happened

                                         And they're trying to make it better
                                         
                                         Right
                                         
                                         By adding a little to it
                                         
    
                                         But the way you did it

                                         Let's talk about it
                                         
    
                                         Without getting that guy in trouble
                                         
                                         Then we have to change some details
                                         
                                         Yeah
                                         
                                         You gotta dance around
                                         
                                         And turn into a rape session
                                         
                                         It's like
                                         
                                         But to the people that Listen to it i i kind of see their point
                                         
                                         oh when i went like i said when i went back and heard it it sounds horrible right like i that's
                                         
    
                                         why i'm like everyone who like got down on me i i'm sorry like i deserve like knowing who i am
                                         
                                         and then like hearing like that thing i was like like, whoa, that sounds bad. Like, so, you know, but my, my defense, my delusional defense of like, but I didn't do
                                         
                                         it.
                                         
                                         It's like, if I, if I said anything, it just sounds anytime anyone sounds, tries to defend
                                         
                                         themselves.
                                         
                                         It sounds horrible.
                                         
                                         I was like, whatever.
                                         
                                         I mean, I totally understand what you're saying.
                                         
    
                                         So, um, and I understand it from a point of someone who does podcasts too, that you can
                                         
                                         say things sometimes that you don't mean it even.
                                         
                                         You're just trying to be fun or titillating or, in your case, trying to be really controversial to change the tone of the room.
                                         
                                         You just fucked up.
                                         
                                         You know, Patrice O'Neill was talking about something once where he was talking about people trying to be funny, that sometimes people say really offensive things, that they're trying to be funny and it fails and they're a horrible person and he's like but if
                                         
                                         they said something that wasn't offensive and funny and it and it succeeded and made you laugh

                                         and then it's like
                                         
                                         well I'm a sick person
                                         
    
                                         I'm a sick demented person
                                         
                                         well that was part of what you were talking about
                                         
                                         when you were talking about this experience
                                         
                                         you were talking about the fact that it might be
                                         
                                         kind of rapey was what got you off.
                                         
                                         And you were saying that, again, you're around a bunch of fucking perverts who are all trying to take it to the next level.
                                         
                                         Also was like, so you're a rapist.
                                         
                                         And I was like, yes, I'm a rapist.
                                         
    
                                         And it's like, no, I'm not a rapist.
                                         
                                         But it's like, I know I'm not, so we're joking.
                                         
                                         And you kind of forget also that a lot of other people that don't understand your sensibility are going to be listening to this.
                                         
                                         Right, exactly.
                                         
                                         You assume that the people that get it, like on my message board.
                                         
                                         My message board is like this ridiculous message board.
                                         
                                         Some of the subjects are just so, like, but everybody kind of understands the tone of the board.
                                         
                                         So they'll say something really fucked up.
                                         
    
                                         And if it was on any other message board, people might like read it it and go what the fuck did this guy just say but it became normal
                                         
                                         well yeah i still am not there yet it's like when i have when i get new fans from like being on the
                                         
                                         boarding show or if i'm reporting the next cold war coming that's serious shit and then they come
                                         
                                         over they're like oh i like this guy i don't wonder what else he's up to rape and they're like whoa fuck right uh you know so it's like i don't know but
                                         
                                         they'll figure it out eventually that's right i mean you're still you you're still doing the
                                         
                                         same shit can i just say something about that it's like if someone's not a rapist and it's like
                                         
                                         it's it's such a huge fucking thing to call someone that when they're not and it's like, it's such a huge fucking thing to call someone that when they're not.
                                         
                                         And it's like, you're literally like ruining that guy's life.
                                         
    
                                         But how would they know that you're not a rapist?
                                         
                                         That's the problem.
                                         
                                         They would assume that you are.
                                         
                                         I saw people that I know call you a rapist.
                                         
                                         And I was like, oh, this is a mess.
                                         
                                         I'm like, you don't even know me.
                                         
                                         Like, it's like.
                                         
                                         But they're basing it on what you said.
                                         
    
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And so it's your fault.
                                         
                                         Yeah, it is.
                                         
                                         Right?
                                         
                                         We both agree with that.
                                         
                                         Zero defense.

                                         put the clues together, figure out who it is, call her and be like, Hey, Dave said horrible

                                         Right.
                                         
                                         And I try. One of the reasons why i mean i assume one of the reasons why the people that
                                         
                                         like this show are so nice my fans are so nice it's because i'm a nice person and you can also
                                         
                                         fuck them up but i just that doesn't matter people could shoot you you know the people always say
                                         
                                         if i was you i would go kick people's asses right that doesn't last you know you pick people's asses
                                         
                                         they don't like that they shoot shoot you. They stab you.
                                         
                                         They run you over the car.
                                         
    
                                         Just be nice.
                                         
                                         Martial arts is supposed to be about developing your character,
                                         
                                         about figuring out how you overcome difficult obstacles and how that makes you a better person.
                                         
                                         To not fight.
                                         
                                         That's what it is for me.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         So it's not about that, but it's also about being confident
                                         
                                         so you don't have to worry about as many people kicking your ass there's always gonna be some people that
                                         
    
                                         can kick your ass no matter who you are really right unless you're at the top of
                                         
                                         the fucking heap and then you're only the top of the heap for a certain amount
                                         
                                         of time right when Cain Velasquez beat the fuck out of Brock Lesnar everybody
                                         
                                         was like Jesus Christ right you could be a guy like Brock Lesnar right somewhere
                                         
                                         out there this is badass dude with brown pride tattooed on his chest who just
                                         
                                         beats the shit out of you. Always be someone that's...
                                         
                                         There's always going to be someone.
                                         
                                         Most likely.
                                         
    
                                         But I think you put out a certain energy and you get back a certain energy.
                                         
                                         Well, like, it's...
                                         
                                         And you...
                                         
                                         There's always...
                                         
                                         It's the metaphor I said.
                                         
                                         In high school, I fought, like, almost every weekend.
                                         
                                         Didn't win 90% of them.
                                         
                                         Still did it.
                                         
    
                                         So, it's like, that's...
                                         
                                         If that says anything about...
                                         
                                         You.
                                         
                                         There's nothing... I mean, short of, like like putting a bullet in my head there's nothing like you you getting in that that black
                                         
                                         guy putting you the thing and humiliating you it's like i've been embarrassed humiliated i've

                                         They gave you a shitload of money.
                                         
                                         I'm not going to deny that the Facebook thing was a crazy break, but I've made millions of dollars in everything I've ever wanted to do.
                                         
                                         And so it's like, did I get a crazy break over and over again?

                                         So when they went to my hoarder's house, like I had millions already.
                                         
    
                                         I already sold out a million dollar art show in London.
                                         
                                         I had millions from gambling.
                                         
                                         But nobody knew.
                                         
                                         And I was like, so I can still, that's the best.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         That's the best combo.
                                         
                                         You get to live a normal life, but you're fucking rich as shit.
                                         
                                         And then. So you were rich before the Facebook shit even went down. I didn't have a normal life, but you're fucking rich as shit. And then.
                                         
    
                                         So you were rich before the Facebook shit even went down.
                                         
                                         I didn't have hundreds of millions, but I had a few million.
                                         
                                         And I was like, cool.
                                         
                                         That's more than I ever thought I would make.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         I'm selling paintings for a couple hundred grand.

                                         I might be able to do that.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         Yeah.

                                         It sounds like chaos.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I'm like, I'll answer anyone's question.
                                         
                                         You know, like on the Reddit thing, they ask like crazy questions, and then like if you
                                         
                                         ignore them, they just upvote it, so it's like the number one question or something.
                                         
                                         Right, right, right.
                                         
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         But once again, don't have to do it.
                                         
    
                                         Like the pain, like the torture.
                                         
                                         But you enjoy all the chaos.
                                         
                                         You definitely enjoy chaos.
                                         
                                         I live in it.
                                         
                                         You love it.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I think that's why you live in a tiny little place.
                                         
                                         You didn't move to some suburban neighborhood in Beverly Hills and set up shop and some nice, you know, have a manicured lawn.
                                         
    
                                         You live like a crazy person.
                                         
                                         It's manufactured misery.
                                         
                                         But it's not miserable.
                                         
                                         You're not miserable.
                                         
                                         It's miserable.
                                         
                                         In what way? It smells so bad in there there's there's cockroaches ants but why why do that then
                                         
                                         because you know you and me could talk about like oh you should eat kale and this and that but it's
                                         
                                         like i know at the end of the day what i'm really gonna do and so if i sit here and go hey dave
                                         
    
                                         forget all this fucking bullshit you've talked up until now your podcast tv bullshit you're an artist okay so let's talk real talk about you being an artist
                                         
                                         right how much have you actually painted in the last 10 years not that much okay let's look at
                                         
                                         your entire life when have you painted the most when i was in jail in japan when i was in a cold
                                         
                                         miserable place in china with no internet, no cell service.
                                         
                                         So the combining factors of all these places
                                         
                                         is that it was always cold,
                                         
                                         no internet and no cell service
                                         
                                         and no one else around.
                                         
    
                                         So isolation, cold and miserable.
                                         
                                         And just that's what it takes now
                                         
                                         because I am an easily distracted, addictive person.
                                         
                                         So I do have a lot of options for pussy that I never had before.
                                         
                                         I do have all these things and it's, why do Joe's cross hatching of a werewolf with like,

                                         Oh man, I want to paint this thing.

                                         thing is creating and pussy.
                                         
                                         And let me just ask you this, Joe, because you're in it.
                                         
    
                                         You're a comedian.
                                         
                                         Is the great art always come from misery?
                                         
                                         It's like Jim Carrey, Eddie Murphy.
                                         
                                         Do you have to be miserable?
                                         
                                         No, you don't.
                                         
                                         I believe you can make really good art if you're well adjusted and you're happy and whatever.
                                         
                                         But I'm talking about the great shit that transcends time and whatever.
                                         
                                         Those people are suicidal, miserable fucks.
                                         
    
                                         And speaking just for me, because I know my best stuff always came from rejection, hatred, getting dumped, living in miserable conditions.
                                         
                                         There's nothing about living in a 20-story or 20-bedroom fucking mansion in Beverly Hills
                                         
                                         with pools and Playboy models hanging around.
                                         
                                         That makes me want to create.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but you're creating while you're getting your balls sucked by Playboy playmates.
                                         
                                         It's still the most amazing paradise ever.
                                         
                                         You're staying in suites in Vegas and banging $10,000 hookers.
                                         
                                         You're talking girls into fucking you that never would.
                                         
    
                                         Sex workers.
                                         
                                         Sex workers.
                                         
                                         Sorry.
                                         
                                         I didn't say whore, at least.
                                         
                                         I'm not trying to change your opinion.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But what I'm trying to say is you love a lot of different things, but you definitely have
                                         
                                         a self-destructive streak.
                                         
    
                                         But I don't... When I was a kid and I was doing stand-up, when I first started doing stand-up,
                                         
                                         one of the things that I thought is, man, I don't ever want to get enlightened.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Because if I get enlightened, it's going to fuck up my comedy.
                                         
                                         Oh, right.
                                         
                                         Because my comedy was always, my favorite comedy was always like Sam Kinison and Richard
                                         
                                         Pryor, troubled people, dirty people.
                                         
                                         And I was always thinking like, man, you can never like achieve a certain amount of enlightenment
                                         
    
                                         because then you'll never be able to do the great comedy.
                                         
                                         But I think that's a trap.
                                         
                                         Well, check this out.
                                         
                                         I'm at my warehouse where in the wintertime it's freezing, and I'll be painting,
                                         
                                         and I remember thinking, wow, it's 2 in the morning.
                                         
                                         I'm miserable.

                                         And I'm like, wow, it's two in the morning.

                                         No one's doing anything against their will.
                                         
                                         They want the money.

                                         Asian guy that fucked the white chick on TV?
                                         
                                         It's like one guy, Steven Yoon.
                                         
    
                                         And it's like, we're like sort of the first everything, you know?
                                         
                                         So it's a little bit stressful.
                                         
                                         I'd rather be, I'd rather like, I'd rather be like 10 other weird, wacky Asian guys.
                                         
                                         And then like, you know, and Jackie Chan doesn't count.
                                         
                                         I'd rather be like number 10 or 20 down the list, you know?
                                         
                                         Like, I don't want to be the guy in the forefront, but guess what?
                                         
                                         I'm not complaining.
                                         
                                         Well, I am complaining, but I'm here.
                                         
    
                                         I'm going to do my job, and I'm going to do it as best I can, you know?
                                         
                                         If I had an armchair psycho analyze you, I would say that you spend a lot of time conflicting with other people's expectations and opinions of you.
                                         
                                         Very conflicted.
                                         
                                         But why?
                                         
                                         Because you seem so free when you do your own thing.
                                         
                                         But now this is the question.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         Is part of what makes you enjoy your life the fact that you reject these other people's expectations and their definitions of you and you get to live free
                                         
    
                                         on your own and you're proving that you're successful.

                                         Definitely.
                                         
                                         Well, that's just being Korean.
                                         
    
                                         I mean, there's nothing I could do about that.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Being Korean makes you want to fight against things?
                                         
                                         I talked to Bourdain about this on the show.
                                         
                                         It's like they probably have it in every culture, their own version of it.
                                         
                                         But in Korean, it's called Han.
                                         
                                         And it's like genetic.
                                         
    
                                         It's like you're just like I have a friend who has adopted a korean son and he has his own

                                         This is how I would see him.
                                         
    
                                         Like this.

                                         And then he would just fucking work out really hard.
                                         
                                         Go for it.
                                         
                                         And then be exhausted.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         He would be at school and he was training so he would like be studying all day and then he would
                                         
                                         run upstairs he run up the flights of stairs at the university right he was constantly tired
                                         
    
                                         constantly miserable but he felt like if he didn't live like that right and i haven't be happy that's
                                         
                                         in me that's in my blood and and so let me take it straight down to comedy and let me
                                         
                                         get racist for a second i mean people ask i'm sure they ask you who's your favorite comedian i'm like
                                         
                                         okay forget specifics who's your favorite comedian blacks jews and koreans what koreans what koreans
                                         
                                         well it's like bobby lee like okay so if i take it just to Asians, there's not like Chinese comedians.
                                         
                                         I mean, there are.
                                         
                                         Right.
                                         
                                         But there's no Japanese big...
                                         
    
                                         It's like all the big funny comedians that are successful in America are Bobby Lee, Dr. Ken Jeong.
                                         
                                         They're all Korean.
                                         
                                         But I think this is assimilation.
                                         
                                         Why aren't there Japanese big comedians?
                                         
                                         I mean, I can't think of one right now.
                                         
                                         Or why aren't there huge Chinese? And why are there so many Jewish comedians? I mean, I can't think of one right now. Or why aren't there huge Chinese?

                                         Well, they've been here long.
                                         
    
                                         This persecution, this torment, part of the culture.

                                         like i don't know how to define like i don't know why jews are so funny i don't know why koreans are

                                         misery and don't you think though that like as Japanese and Chinese, as generations go on, they become more assimilated, especially because of the internet.
                                         
                                         You're going to see more and more Chinese comedians, more Japanese comedians, things along those lines, don't you think?
                                         
    
                                         As they become more entrenched in the art form.
                                         
                                         Yeah, maybe.

                                         just ends up being like dicks.
