I think I took a shit in my neighbor's lawn.
Yeah.
Well I love you madly dear, and I need you badly dear.
Why did you leave me here, without your love?
Oh, I'm hurting. I mean it's much warmer than it is outside. It's alright. It's feeling feels okay
Did your your nipples get hard when it gets cold out?
Brother, my nipples get hard almost all the time.
Really?
Yeah. They're weirdly hard nipples.
I'm kind of proud of it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I like them.
When they're soft, I pinch them to get them hard.
Wow.
And now I think I've developed a slight tick where I sort of constantly
am doing a slight bit of nipple play to keep them. Yeah, keep
them perked up. I should do the same thing when I was younger,
man. But it was because I was like, morbidly obese. And when I
like pinched my nipples, dude, my titties kind of shrunk a
little bit. Yeah. So it's constantly just pinching my
nipples. Okay, dude
I think we're coming from the same place because I used to be fat as well
And I had nipples that went in really so when they finally came out I was like we got to keep them out
Yeah, you know I don't mean to be disrespectful man, but have you ever seen your mom's tits?
No, never really never not once not once and I'm grateful for that fuck man. What about you?
Have you seen your mom's tits?
I think so, but I just can't remember. Well, that's probably good. I like to think like we have
The same nips though. Yes. I feel like I have pretty feminine nipples
And I feel like I probably got that from her how how how big are we talking? Are you nips?
I mean dude if I'm fat like morbidly obese
Bigger we talking are your nips. I mean dude if I'm fat like morbidly obese
Kid brains I would say I'm on the borderline of like salami and pepperoni. Oh right on that border. Yeah, you know
When I lose weight though did for some reason my nipples get small it gets small I don't know what's going on. Are we talking like quarters if they're hard man like they're hard right now
You know and you can kind of seem a little bit. I can see yeah, but do they change size?
It's fucking awesome. It's kind of beautiful. I love it. It's like the
Pupil of an eye. Yeah, but dude, have you ever worn like when you were fat?
Have you ever worn like an underarmor shirt to suck it all in those performance shirts?
And your nipples are like not hard and you got to walk by a girl or something
It's like you might as well have tits. Might as well just fucking kill yourself dude. Dude 100%. Yeah that's like my ultimate fear man. What having to walk by a girl? Having the wind
fuck you and your nipples aren't hard. And then they just see. You gotta walk by your fucking
lover dude and just be like this is what we're working with right now. That's real. You know? Yeah.
When you say morbidly obese how big were you? I think I was like I was like 180 in
fifth grade
It's probably five ten five eleven maybe man, you're not even I don't what is your range for morbidly obese
You sound like you were just a heavyset guy. Well, I'm thinking when I was when I was overweight. I remember having to lose
Heavyset guy. Well, I'm thinking when I was when I was overweight. I remember having to lose
25 pounds just to play football. So that's how like overweight. You were too fat for football Yeah, there was a weight limit Wow in the Peewee League. Oh
Yeah, so that was like fifth. Yeah, that was fifth grade man. I could tell you some crazy numbers
I was putting up I was I was four foot eleven going into high school.
Oh shit. Yeah. Short little guy, fat tits. I was about 160 pounds. Holy shit. Nipples went in.
I got to school and nobody thought I was in high school. They would ask me questions. They were
like, hey, are you like a genius? Did you skip grades? Yeah, like no
A tiny little guy is at his proper grade. Holy shit I know I could show you a picture after this or during this on wild because you kind of look like Tom Cruise right now
Dude, man, that's really nice you to say same height that went to a height doctor when I was a kid
Uh-huh, and because I was still so short
and I endocrinologist and they were like you should be five-seven when you're growing up and I was a kid and because I was still so short, endocrinologist and they were like,
you should be five seven when you're growing up
and I was like, thank God.
Yeah.
It was like, I mean that's short,
but at the time I was like, that's amazing.
Can we talk about it dude?
Like, do you have like a small man syndrome?
You ever like start throwing haymakers?
I think I do.
I, yeah, I feel angry a lot.
I'm very sensitive to feeling like people are like disrespecting me.
I don't like it when other grown men touch me on the top of the head.
Yeah, that's disrespectful, man.
Also, my dad is shorter than me and like he's got it bad. Like he was in the military when he was young.
He was one of those dudes that got tall in middle school and was probably mean to kids and then everybody got bigger than him
So we just got fucking jacked shit. He's like one of those short
Jack dudes. Yeah, and
Just a very pugnacious man vicious man
Could be a little vicious. He's like I remember when my grandmother passed away and I was in
Savannah for her funeral and his old friends were popping up there like your dad would you show up to my house?
Knock on the door and try to fight me in the front. I was like what they're like
He's just trying to fight motherfuckers
If I have that I got a friend but I got taller later not tall but I didn't there wasn't a point in middle school where
I was like
Just fucking other kids up. So yeah
That confidence yeah, man at that age don't really know what's going on in their heads
You know, you just see a kid throwing haymakers and you're like, yeah
Like my dad could have been that guy like a butter bean type, you know
I wish like at that age you kind of had like emotional intelligence. Oh, yeah, it's people people now man, you know, they don't even know, you know
you see someone that's like
Clinically depressed and you're like don't look so happy man. Yeah, it's like bro. Come on man, like
You know, so that's how I try to be respectful around like shorter people
But I feel like it should be you know
Like I don't like the short ones that just get mad automatically. No. No, it's a bad look
I'm trying to work on not being as mad. I think I got mad lately I don't think I was always just mad but always very like
Attuned to disrespect but it's the thing where you're just like so he disrespects me I'm gonna fuck him up, and then they do it you're like
You're like
Whatever yeah, so when you were like fat short, dude, and you had like titties and shit
Mm-hmm did anyone ever like fuck with your tits and shit they in Boy Scouts. They gave me the nickname bosoms
It's not that bad not terrible and the guy that gave me that nickname is a priest now Wow, yeah
You're thinking about going to the going to his location do the fucking throne thrown up. No
Locations hilarious, you know fucking funny that would be
There's always a moment where they give someone a chance to like either like make an announcement, you know, like
Yeah, there's always like at my church. They let you speak out if someone passed away in your life
Mm-hmm. So you that'd be funny if you raised your hand
You know, and you're like I I got something to say you're like the old Michaels dead start fucking my own hand makers
Yeah, I think I could rock your shit really Really? If I'm keeping it a buck.
Yeah.
In the, in church?
I don't know if I, I'm still scared of church.
Yeah, man, it is scary, dude, but if there's-
I'd catch him outside.
Really?
Would you approach him by foot or like in the car?
I'd approach him by foot.
I would try to do it honorably
I think I would announce it in church. I'd say Tim the Dahl ski
I'm a different guy and I'll see you outside and I'd let him shake hands
But I would like stand out there and stare at him till he was done shaking
Yeah, and then he probably try to walk up and say something like
Hey, I know I know you're mad and then I'd say something like the time for talking is done. Yeah
That's pretty intense man. Yeah, you think you'd strike fear into him. I
I do yeah, I hope and if not I
Guess that would rile me up a whole bunch. Yeah, and then I'd really be
Frothing at the mouth. You having flashbacks the whole fucking time
To him calling me bosoms if I'm being honest
We actually had a pretty good thing going on real we would do bits together before after or during
During so it's kind of like mixed emotions. Yeah, I feel that man
That's always how it goes, but he this guy burned me my first comedy CDs
He burned me a bunch of Jeff Fox worthy CDs
That I would listen to all the time. Wow, it was a really how do you burn a CD?
Never burn a CD Johnny. It's like some old shit, right? That's old shit. Yeah
Yeah, you would burn CDs for me in elementary school. That's just like copying his current one and giving you like a... Yeah, it's like downloading the CD onto a computer and then you burn that whole CD onto a blank disc.
Yeah. He was handing them out for free.
Yeah, he was just hooking me up for the love of comedy. He was like, check this out.
So it kind of, there was kind of like a payoff, I guess.
Yeah. And I think at the time, bosoms didn't actually upset me. I think I took it in stride. Yeah, I think I was like that's fair
Yeah, did I miss um, is there like a part of you that kind of misses being fat?
No
Because you are like a no homo like a good looking dude. You think so you think if you could go back
At this point in your life, you think you would or you're kind of like happy
You think I would go back you're asking me if I would go back to middle school in your life, you think you would? Are you kind of like happy? You think I would go back?
You asked me if I would go back to middle school.
I think about that all the time, dude.
You know how fucking funny I was, dude?
That is true.
So much funnier.
I got away with saying a lot of shit.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But see, you're also a good looking dude and you're tall.
You got a deep voice, you got a mustache, and you got a real chill vibe.
I feel like you're the guy that women would be like I just feel safe around him
Yeah, a lot of women they call me tender dude. Is that right? So they say that's really amazing
Yeah, I'm not really like big on getting pussy though, so I'm just trying to like be
You know, I'm trying to like when you say you're not big on getting pussy
It's like it's not your thing or it's it's it can be hard to do or I'm just like an emotional guy, man
How do you mean? You know, you want to catch feelings pretty fast and uh,
I usually like uh, the girl usually ends things man, and then
I usually just uh, I get emotional man, you know, I go to the gym
Max out on calf raises. Oh, yeah, and i'll listen to like three doors down. What do your calves look like?
They're not that big man unless i'm like at a good angle yeah that's why you got to raise them you're trying to juice them I'm just
trying to fucking just that combination dude of doing cav raises in three doors
down in my head I'm like I wonder if some chicks looking at me right now are
you listening to Superman the song yeah if I go crazy then will you still call me Superman?
Oh yeah, that's Three Doors Down.
That's the only Three Doors Down song I know.
Listen to that dude, listen to Vanessa Carlton dude.
Never listened to her.
What is that?
Can't believe you man.
You know that song, A Thousand Miles.
You want to sing it for me?
I can't dude, I'm going to embarrass myself.
I'm not like you dude, I'm not skilled in the acting
You seem like you're skilled in acting. What do you think I'd be good at? What do I think you'd be good at?
You were like a producer like what type of role do you would you put me in? I put you in a role That's similar to what you're doing now. Really? Yeah
Just like a like a therapist or something?
Sort of like a quiet, ironic...
Yeah.
I feel like if you were a good producer, you'd just have me do like a one-liner type situation.
No, man. I'd give you at least five lines.
For real?
But you'd be doing stuff. It'd be like yes and no's.
That's what I can say, dude.
But like, people would remember me, right?
Have you tried acting? They'd remember you.
Yeah. I just want to remember dude
Yeah, you know other me too. I was thinking about that while I peed in your toilet for real like about your legacy
Yeah, my legacy. Yeah, I don't think it's gonna be what I want
I think that's why people get old and they get sad yeah
I think it's gonna happen at some point then you hit an age and you go I guess not
Yeah, you're like dude. I should have made out with that fucking chick
Yeah, then you start regretting all the the chicks you didn't make out with yeah
There's so many opportunities, but you could have just gone in
That is the one thing when you talk about going back in time
I would like to go back and witness stuff from my childhood like in a
You know
in like a Christmas
Carol sort of way like Ghost of Christmas Pass is toting me around and I'm looking at shit
I think we misremember a lot. It might be nice just to watch stuff. Yeah
Happened yeah
If I could go back man, I would just scream penis more like I was more in penis every day
Where just all throughout school?
And in public because it's hilarious up till I turned 18 because there's really no repercussions
What do you think that would do for you though? I think would boost my self-esteem. I'd be fucking so funny
I do think it is a pretty good exercise in realizing, you know speak up. What's the worst that could happen?
Yeah, speak your mind. Yeah, dude. Speak your mind shout penis in a big
Audience crowd see that you're gonna be fine. When's the last time you scream penis man?
Probably last week. Yeah, where would you let it rip man? I was orgasming for real
Yeah, where would you let it rip? Man, I was orgasming.
For real?
I've never tried that, man.
I gotta try that.
Yeah, some people scream different stuff when they come,
but I like to scream penis.
Oh wow.
It's as you're coming or as you're-
Yeah, that's where it's all going.
Holy shit, man.
You just rocked my fucking world.
Holy shit, man.
I think I just lost like five years of my life.
I've never even thought about that
That's when you shout it. What is it? What does it feel like when you scream it man?
Shit, I mean it feels like you're coming. You know what I mean? Yeah
That's like a long penis too. Yeah
I actually really accentuate the s I go penis. Yeah
Towards the end. Yeah, that's like that that kind of matches the feeling to mm-hmm
Feel like a little snake dude who got away. Yeah, you could also shout out or you could whisper while you're peeing pee
Yeah, I don't know if that's a little weird, but yes
I'm just you know I'm just riffing it out with a dog. Yeah, I mean I know dudes who like
Do some weird stuff when they're like pissing and like jerking off and stuff. What do you mean?
What do they do? I went on a date once in Long Island, dude, and I told this chick
I was like I'm gonna go piss and I go into the bathroom, dude
There's this guy next to me at the urinal next to me dude, and I thought he was possessed man
he was uh he was like
reenacting the exorcist dude like fucking tweaking out but he was like I'm
pretty sure he was speaking in Latin dude I'm not even kidding man while he
pissed whole time he was grunting like fucking freaking out did it feel like
maybe he's just holding it in for a long time and then he was like no dude I'm
almost positive was satanic he had intentions of like summoning some fucking demons and I was pissing that demon out
Yeah, you know what I mean you think it was he was trying to get it out. Yeah, it's how you get rid of it
Yeah, I mean I could have asked him but I
Don't know man. I don't want to like fucking get cursed or something. Yeah. Yeah, that's the unit
You don't talk to people at the urinals no matter any whatever they're doing
Yeah, cuz like dude if he casts a spell on me or something you know I could I could have came out of the closet
You know what I mean? I don't want that yeah
I'm just not ready for that yet man
You think he was gonna cast a spell on you and then it was gonna be like you saying like I'm gay
Yeah, like that my date. I'm sorry, but I'm gay
I date she's like hey, I'm sorry, but I'm gay
Hey, so how'd the rest of the date go after you said I'm gonna take a piss it's pretty good man But I know their heartbreak situation. You know Asian woman
But yeah, man, I feel like I always
Yeah, man, I just feel like I always like the girl more than the girl likes you
Yeah, man, have you ever tried just locking up those emotions a little bit just saving them
So I can go a few days man, but you feel compelled
I have to let it out dude. I want to feel it. Yeah, it doesn't seem like you like inauthentic action. Yeah, you want to be you
Like dude if I was blowing heaters into chicks non-stop just fucking
sploogen and chicks
Letting it rip. Mm-hmm
Screaming Beyblades every time I scream like fucking came in chicks just did that for like a month. Mm-hmm

And I was like, fuck this.
And then I walked somewhere where I could get a train
and I went into a bar and I'm kind of browning out
at this point and I drink with a guy at the bar.

accomplish like that journey? Yeah. Like did you think the train was going to take you to like
glory? Dude yeah I thought I was going to do it. I thought I was going to take the train. I mean the

You know so we can hear everyone speak dude
And I bro, I'm just like fucking I'm sitting like this and I'm like dude
Just stay awake. Just stay awake like you just have to like fight through this
Dude, I fell asleep and my head just smashes the table
And like the force from the table like woke me up
Dude everyone everyone kind of like jolted and I was just like alright like just play it off
Sorry
The force from the table woke me out
Bro in front of like Bloomberg, dude, I don't know
I don't know who that guy is bro, but some dude from Bloomberg
I don't know if he like owns it or some shit, but he was talking man. I was just like
Did you teach your notice? Yeah, dude, everyone in the front row was like what the fuck is going on
But I stayed awake and like pulled it off and like I kind of feel like they knew
You know, well, it's you know polite society. They're like, we'll just just gonna keep it moving. Yeah
Where'd you go to school?
Edward Island a school called Johnson and Wales man. Sounds like a cool ass school
Very laid-back man. It sounds like your teacher really liked you
Did you ever have like an experience where you like you drank with people who you didn't really like no
Like in school and stuff. You ever go on like a field trip or anything
They ever go on a field trip in school. Yeah, maybe like a sleepover or something, you know that vibe
No in high school we did cuz I was in like I was I was I would do theater and we took it serious
So we would go to like some we would go to like high school theater competitions
Yeah, and we would go to thes con the thespians conference and it would just be a bunch
of theater kids just like us hanging out in a hotel fucking smoking weed getting
fucked up like at a motel next to an abandoned Waffle House and our teachers
being like just like hiding it from the teachers, but so clearly all just that's the vibe
I'm talking about. Yeah. Yeah, those are good times. We had that man. We were in like a hotel and like
The first time I'd ever been in New York City, man. We were in like a hotel
Like the Hilton, I think it was mm-hmm
And I remember just being with these lesbians dude dude, and just thinking about getting a hand job.
You know what I mean? Jesus Christ. Yeah, dude, these chicks were a beat, but it was just like,
you just get that vibe, you know, you're like, we're on a road trip. Like, everybody's being a
little crazy. Yeah, dude. You know, did you have any like, in theater, do you have any like crushes?
I had crushes, but I didn't. I didn't have my first kiss till I was like 18 because I was so short and fat
Yeah, and it really put a put a hurtin on my confidence. I think so I had crushes, but it never materialized into
Anything. Yeah
When did you start doing theater?
When I was a kid my mom
Um, when I was a kid, my mom sent me to like a theater camp at Georgia Tech back in Atlanta. Just something to do over the summer.
And we did the final performance and my mom was like, you're good at this.
And she just started like, and I enjoyed it.
So she started putting me into these.
They also sent me like a stand-up comedy summer camp
Around that time too. Yeah, so I just started doing all that stuff as a kid. Did you feel like a little bit closeted?
No, everybody Thought I was gay. So from a young age, I was really combing my spirit to be like am I?
Like i'm talking about it on stage now
But I used to let my big cousins dress me up like a girl
Like I'm talking about it on stage now, but I used to let my big cousins dress me up like a girl
Well, cuz I thought that shit ripped. Yeah, it was like they would like do my nails and do my makeup And yeah, I get like they all loved it and I was like look at all this
I was like I love this and my dad would just be like Jesus fucking cry
I'm like can't stop it that takes a man, bro
And you know, I ended up going to like an arts high school
in Atlanta so like
You know, it's a lot of like genuinely gay kids like yeah, you're pretty quickly
It's you know, you're able to get a handle on like, oh, no, these guys are gay and I'm yeah I'm still nervous to talk to a girl. Yeah, I'll talk to any guy
That's pretty sick man start start quantifying it differently. Yes, you were like
Emotionally open. Oh
Take pride in it. Yeah, cuz it was like I
Remember we were at one theater camp and we were still young
Usually when you're really mean to kids that are gay and there was like one kid that had
Two dads and another kid was making fun of him and we all went to his room like this is theater camp
We'll beat the shit out of you. Don't you get that?
We're like you can't make fun of people for being gay here. Are we gonna rock your shit?
Yeah, and then some chick just starts making out with you. Yeah, that's what you hope. Yeah, that's the hope
Yeah, man, that's how I used to feel to feel when I used to wear my mom's tights.
If she didn't stop me, dude, I probably would have gone full on thong.
Dude, like I would have gone all the way, dude.
I had to wear I had to dress like a woman for this season of the show.
And I remember being like, you know, this rips.
Yeah. My legs looked open.
He ever worn
Have you want to dress with no underwear?
Never you got to try it out man. I'll try that one. Yeah, we should do it together man
Play tag and like an open parking lot
Like that would be that would be kind of gay dude, but you're telling me that wouldn't be a good time
I mean that's an event like you want to talk about a fun way to spend the night
Thinking outside the box bunch of boys. We all get in dresses. No underwear. Mm-hmm. We play tag
Maybe like play a little bit of flag football, dude
Cuz like I'm emotionally vulnerable right now like this chick ended things man
So if we were in dresses no underwear dude thrown hail Mary's dude that would boost my spirits like crazy man might bring her back to yeah every fucking throw
Do I'm just thinking about letting go?
You know yeah, if you came down with some nasty catches to dude
I would love that yeah some dives some one-handed grabs dude where you like fall on the ground and like your fucking legs open up
Yep That did make me say that couple grabs dude where you like fall on the ground and like your fucking legs open up. Yep.
That did make me slightly uncomfortable. I pushed right through it. No, no man. Come on. This is what would happen. I haven't thrown a football since the pandemic.
Really? Yeah. Me and my roommate used to just go out and fucking rip passes. He was D1 dude.
We got to meet up man. He was D1. I used to fucking throw Hail Marys in the Dollar Tree
parking lot dude. They had lights set up and stuff, man.
I'd get high as tits and just start throwing
fucking like 50 yard fucking.
Throwing bombs, dude.
Bombs, dude.
Junior size football, man.
You could really rip those.
Yeah.
I did notice the disparity in our throwing ability.
The D1, my roommate could really rip it
and I would have to, I started kicking it.
But I got really good at kicking it. Yeah, if I couldn't hit matches distance for throw
I fucking rip a kick. Yeah, I could really as long as you're not moving in, you know what I mean?
Yeah, don't want to move in. Yeah, dude one time I did edibles with this kid and I could tell he wasn't really on board
So I go I'm like dude you trying to toss the skin man and it's
like 20 degrees. He's like I guess man, you could tell he was just upset. I was like oh dude if we toss the skin man, it's gonna bring him back.
You know we're gonna have a time of our life man man So I'm like super positive and he's just like he wants to fucking kill himself, dude
I throw an absolute bomb
So adamant about catching this ball bro, he's running his fucking dick off bro, dude, he fucking runs towards a block of ice
Take off, bro.
Dude, he fucking runs towards a block of ice.
Full speed fucking slips and like bashes his head like.
And he was like he was panicking mad. He was like, dude, I'm fucking done.
I was like I was laughing so hard hard dude, but it was just like, it was such a slow occurrence man.
You know what I mean? Like I just feel like, if you're gonna run a route bro, know where you're running.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, especially if it's a deep route, you know, like that would be like an NFL player just running into the fucking post.
fell player just run into the fucking post. It was so slow but so funny. Was this in Rhode Island? Yeah dude. I started meditating. For real? Yeah bro. In the morning? Morning and
then you do it again in the afternoon. You watching like Bang Bust or like what are you
watching? I'm trying not to watch any of it. Yeah, I used to watch my just use my mind now
Yeah, yeah, what about you you get angry you ever scrap
You're never scrapped man, I've never thrown hands
But yeah, man as of late I've been getting a little angry
And I don't know how to deal with it man. I think it's living in this city starts to make you angry
I've been here six years, and it's made me incrementally angrier
Yeah, man
I don't know man. I think there's just something deep inside of me. That's like I
Still have that dog in me, dude. dog in me dude you know and like you play sports
now I was like a theater kid I was undersized so I never but do you know
what it's like to like touch another man in what respect either in a homosexual
way or non homosexual yes I'm familiar like lay hands on another man I know
this feeling I mean I feel like as you get older man like you have no opportunities to just fucking crack someone's dick you know that's
why people get into what you do pick up basketball there's also jujitsu is very
popular now yeah you do that wrestle around I think it's just I just think about shit like
Just like past experiences like being fat and stuff like do you ever think about that stuff and get angry or like
when I was fat you think about like people made fun of you when you were fat and stuff and like I
think back to a couple experiences and I I use it as
Fuel to be like if they could see me now.
Yeah. One of those things. Yeah I get mad when people think they know who I am and
they haven't like given me an opportunity to like show who I am you
know. Can you give me an example? How do you mean?
I do a lot of stand up and like sometimes afterwards I feel good because I'm like dude I finally
feel like I can be myself around these people in front of these people and sometimes people
are like oh like so that's like a bit right?
And that makes me want to like just start throwing uppercuts dude. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like literally just start fucking swinging at people until I fucking pass out
Well, I'm saying yeah stand up will make you angry too because you're just subject to everybody's opinion
Fucks yeah, they want to give your opinion their opinion about what you do and you're just like man. Shut the fuck up
Yeah, dude. What the fuck do you it makes me think about other celebrities?
I think people have to deal with that and like every level like Michael Jordan had to deal with people being like
You know, you really fucked up during that game
And you're like who the fuck are you like that would be fine if someone was like you really bombed out there
I'd be like that's fair
I'm glad maybe I did
But if someone was like you're not being yourself
I would fucking I see you know yeah like I would just because I put so much energy into like
Trying to be a genuine dude. Yeah for someone to be like oh, this is like a a bit right? Yeah. Like you're playing a character. I just want
to fucking you know, but I've never scrapped dude, I've always
I've always wanted to strike fear into another man. But I
just feel like for me that would involve I'd probably do like a
combination of something like religious and homosexual. You
know, how do you mean?
Like I think I would like whip out my left nut and scream. I fear God homie like at the top my lungs
Just to like scare that guy away. Yeah, like strike fear into him cuz I would really fucking throw him off
Yeah, you know, it's like a weapon
Yeah, maybe like a dildo or ifo fight a 12 inch dildo take that out
Now i'm now see here's where my head goes you have the dildo and then you unsheath a knife from the dildo
ball handle
Unsheathe the knife you go because everyone's laughing when you take out a dildo and then you go watch this
You guys want to see a fucking magic trick?
You go your move pal. Yeah. Yeah Wow
I've always wanted to do a thing
Where somebody's being disrespectful and I just look at them and I lightly smack them in the face
I go, how do you feel about that?
I think that's cool. Yeah, that's kind of scary dude. Honestly, how do you feel about I don't know what I would do
No, you know, yeah, but I do think about if I did do that
Like if I whipped out my left nut and screamed I fear God homie
If I got knocked out after that, I mean that would be it for me
That is the one that's the that's the balancing thought is you're like, yeah, it would be cool to do that
But then somebody just rocks your shit. Yeah shit and the cops are like asking questions to witnesses
They're like yeah, you just like whipped out his left. No people saw it. Yeah. Yeah now they've logged it
Now it's in a file because I mean you see it all the time if you go to a bar
Do you like I've seen dudes get knocked out in front of their girlfriends and have you?
Yeah, dude, what brought that on what happened? I think they started a yeah
Like yo, why you looking at my fucking girl dude, and then like usually the guy who's looking is like a fucking Navy SEAL like assassin. He doesn't care dude
He's looking at titties like yeah. Yeah, so I go look at whatever the fuck I want dude
And then just like I've seen dudes get fucking one punch, and I'm just like Jesus man. Yeah, Jesus
I mean, that's yeah, that's that's the nightmare. Yeah, that's the big fear, but I just feel man like
Like something inside of me, you know, it's just like I'm like a man dude
I need to like I'm not trying to feel like a pussy anymore, dude. I'm trying to like
Strike fear into another man. Maybe just like wrestle with him. Even if it's naked dude
You know, yeah because afterwards I know we'd feel better
man go go uh go do a jiu-jitsu thing or a wrestling thing is that what you're doing the box
yeah you're doing the jiu-jitsu yeah tell me dude how do you how do you feel afterwards though
you feel good because there's guys you win against and there's guys that beat you
And there's a lot of skill involved
So it's like guys it makes you look at the world different because there's guys you don't think look
Like anything and they're just very good at it. Obviously, it's not the whole spectrum of fighting
It's not none of them are throwing punches, but yeah, you could also do boxing. That's fun
Yeah, I used to I used to throw hands with this dude, man.
He was like an actual mixed martial artist.
And I'd throw him $40, and he'd just show me stuff,
hold the pads for me.
Oh, for real?
I would do that on Friday mornings, man.
And the amount of stress it relieved, dude, I just felt so
good, man. And yeah, I'd be laughing sometimes too because I'm like not that serious
yeah dude but the days when you're angry dude it's just like go yeah go keep training somewhere
you're in queens man there's got to be some good gyms yeah I mean I don't have the money or
anything like that but it's that was cool because I could find a guy who could just show me shit and it was just us out there
Dude, there was during the pandemic. There was a guy in my neighborhood
Who would train people and so I worked with him a couple times. I mean just dudes from the neighborhood
I got I mean I got my eardrum pop once like I just took a shot to the fucking ear
But then during that I met this other dude kev who was mad cool to like the train stuff
so we just started training together like so we would just like
Respectfully throw hands. Yeah park Wow, and then we found a space in Bushwick that you can rent out for like
30 bucks an hour with like some bags in there. You're like boxing. Yeah, or just throwing bare hands
bucks an hour with like some bags in there. You're like boxing?
Yeah.
Or just throwing bare hands?
We were boxing.
So we had gloves and some head gear,
and we would just scrap on each other.
And it was cool.
I don't know where he is now.
We trained together for a hot minute.
You think you passed away?
No, no.
He got married.
There was one day we trained together
where I just felt like I was having a heart attack or something and I seemed I
Think I seemed weak in that moment. I was like I feel awful and
I never saw him again after that Wow. Do you miss him dude?
Sometimes I want to text him be like, you know, let's let's train. Oh, yeah, but we we started training this other gym. That was cool in
Bushwick where the Serrano sisters trained so we were watching
Them train. Yeah, we trained and I remember once we got in the ring and we were just doing what we do
We just move around and tag each other up and this dude from the Bronx
Like an old trainer. He's all punchy, you know, he's not all there
He's like, can I talk to you all for a
minute and we're like yeah he goes I gotta tell you y'all look terrible man
y'all in there you look bad man bad like he yeah for like 15 minutes and then at
the end I was like damn Kev I guess look bad and he was like motherfucker doesn't
know shit yeah and I was like cool and then I wished I was more like Kevin
Yeah, where I didn't care so much what people sounds like a good man, dude. He was mad cool
I should text him. Yeah, yo, let's throw it back. Let's train. He's gonna rain a partner
Yeah, we did that. We did that in my Asian friends garage once
Yeah, his his family like a
head they had a sick like two car garage. We set up those
exercise mats like the blue ones. And he had a he had a
stereo system like a subwoofer dude. So we just started blasting
music. And first round I was boxing like my Guatemalan friend
dude, and beat him and then
Yeah, I had a throw hands with my Asian friend. Mm-hmm
You know, I was tapping him up a little bit. I was about to win dude, and then he puts his fucking
Arm over his eyes and just starts swinging like crazy
And I turn around dude, and he hits me
in the back of the head.
No!
And I don't know what it is about getting hit
in the back of the head, dude.
It's illegal.
Dude, I just fucking, my body shut down.
Yeah, you're not supposed to lie.
It's really bad.
I was like, yeah, I tapped out, man.
He beat me.
He like recorded the whole thing, too.
Holy shit.
I think he probably jerks off to that video, dude,
to this day.
I mean, I would.
Just knowing that he took me down, dude
I trained at this other place in Atlanta and
I had this teacher
Germaine and
He was he was a good teacher, but he was still new so sometimes they'll do wild shit box
He just put me in the ring With this kid from like zone six like I still follow him on Instagram. It's just like him with his pistol just like
It's it's the area in
Project something like that and I'm not actually totally clear
what it is and
Hughes like is his first day here boxing
So I just wanted to take it as hard to him as he goes to you and we started boxing this dude
Uppercuts the shit out of me and almost knocks me out and then I'm like, oh shit
And he uppercuts me again like both times. I'm dazed and I was like this is
More than I bargained for but anyway, we dazed and I was like, this is more than I bargained for.
But anyway, we kept going and it was fine.
But I was like, I got to be more careful.
I can't just be eating tiny concussions.
Do you feel like when you get angry though, have you been scrapping?
Like, do you just fight people or like what's going on?
No, I had one thing that happened recently that I thought like, cause I feel like if you are like that, you're just asking for your shit to get
rocked. Like I never wanted, but there was one time, it was weird because I've done
some of that training and stuff and you know, you think you're tough but then
stuff comes to you and you're like never mind, sorry. You know, generally you don't
want to fight, it sucks it you can get hurt
but then I was walking in this bar in Vancouver at like 2 a.m. And
I'm there's these two guys at bars like anybody sitting here
They go you are now and I sit down and this guy comes up because you have some on your shirt
And I looked down and he flicked my nose and without thinking I smacked him in the face.
And then his friend came up and was like,
whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
And they broke it up and then we had a couple beers.
But I was like, don't do that.
You don't just like touch a stranger
because then they can touch you back.
But I definitely, I like went home after that
and I couldn't sleep for like three hours.
I was so keyed up.
I just laid in bed, just like, what the fuck?
You got that dog in you, dude.
But that's the thing.
No, man, cause it's like that happens
and then you talk about it
and I feel like you're just asking for the universe
to like humble you.
You know what I mean?
For something else to happen.
So it's like, you never want to feel like you're that guy.
Cause I think at my core, I'm not,
there's guys that are that guy
There's guys that are really that guy when push comes to shove and I'm like I was just like baked and a guy
Flicked my nose and I smacked him in the face. Yeah, those guys that are those guys like the truly
Like the badass dudes like Jocko welling and stuff
they'll always say like, don't fight, dude.
Like just fucking last resort, like fucking run if you have to. So that's what I'm saying, dude.
If I get into one of those situations where someone's like, yo, let's fucking go.
I'm just going to be as random as I possibly can.
That's probably good. Yeah.
It also helps if like things are on your side.
Like if it's a fight that's been brought to you. Yeah. But it's like you can't get out of it and
now it's happening. That's when you're like, well okay. Now I can really be myself. Now you can really.
All these thoughts that I have. You can like unleash because you have to. It's gonna kick in.
You're gonna have to do whatever you can. Well I'm just saying like all those immature thoughts I have
on a day-to-day basis like they can finally come out, you know your balls out
Be like yo who's trying to get fucking jerked off? You know, yeah, that's when you do it
Yeah, when you have no choice, but you really have to let it out. Otherwise you go. Hey, I
Don't want I don't want this. Yeah, I'm sorry. I also have like
Can I run some about you?
if uh say hypothetically dude, like,
we're like, I don't know you or whatever.
And I just give you a little smack on the face and we're about to throw down.
If I made out with you, would you kind of like call it quits?
No. Really? You'd still be, you'd be fucking.
No, I'd, I'd kiss back and it would be like one of those things where you like it would be like hot and then I'd pull your face away
Oh shit, and then I go
Wow, yeah, I kiss back to throw you and then push you away like yeah. Oh
Shit. Yeah, that's pretty sick. Yeah, right. Yeah, I think about that
Sometimes like how people would react like how gay do you have to be to truly scare someone away?
I feel like there's just like levels to it
But what if your attacker is gay? I guess you're just having sex then do
I'd rather have anal then get fucking killed. That's fair
Yeah, a little bit anal never hurt anyone dude. Oh, you know, no
but I think that's the best bet man, just saying like random shit and
Nobody ever talks about like dude how much it sucks to get punched in the face either
It hurts a lot honestly dude like if ever you're like I probably let someone punch me in the face
First so that they like break their hand I
It's pretty likely man. I got drunk once and I asked a friend
to punch me in the face as hard as he could.
Yeah.
And I stuck my chin out and he knocked me out.
Why would you do that?
I don't know man.
It was that anger thing being younger
and like wanting to be like, I'm a tough guy.
Cause I was like a fat theater kid
and I was like, no, no, I'm tough. And this dude just rocks my shit. Yeah, damn dude. So fucking retarded. I know it's really stupid
Yeah, so I'm trying not to be
I'm trying not to fake being like a tough. Yeah, so the comedy is what led to the acting
It wasn't the other way around. I mean, I just I did my mom got me into both when I was a kid But I just I like did theater in high school
And then I got to college and I started doing stand-up and at the time it seemed like standards were like we do stand-up
We're not actors, and I was like yeah, so I just leaned into
Stand-up, I didn't really do acting for like if you still had like
Experience under your belt yeah, and I like doing it. I love it.
It's so much fun.
You're on like a TV show, right?
What type of role are you playing?
I play like a doofy, sweet guy.
Yeah.
Doofy, sweet, new guy that's like real positive and chipper.
How does it work?
Like you, how does the whole process work?
What, for like acting? Yeah, like doing the show, like is what goes into it? Oh man is like a lot of work
Yeah, it's like it's like long days longer days than you think. It's waking up super early
it's like staying there for like at least 12 hours, sometimes more and
When you're done, you have to commit to learning the lines for the next day.
So it's like, because they shoot the show for cheap.
We shoot one episode in four and a half days,
but they break you into sort of two or three episode chunks.
So you're shooting all those episodes at the same time.
So you have to, the best thing to do for memorizing lines
is you read all the scripts and then you read them again
so they're sort of in your head and then
Read them again just just to really familiarize yourself and then you memorize them
Like the day before or two days before
Yeah, have you ever forgotten lines? Yeah, but nothing like egregious. Yeah, nothing crazy. Is it because you care so much?
What do you mean? Like if you if you fuck up your lines, like are they just gonna cut you?
No, because you can improv some stuff, but it's like you don't want to be the guy that's not doing
his job. You have a pretty clear-cut job and while you're there, like so many other people are working
long hours, longer hours than you are. Yeah. They don't get to relax like the actors get to relax so much is going in to getting everything set up before you're there
And people are working crazy hours and if you're the guy that's making the day drag
It's just a bad look then you're just not you're not a good co-worker at that point
Yeah, you know what I mean?
Cuz I got a lot of people talk about how like they'll be like, yeah
Like I got this pilot or whatever and like most of the time it doesn't air.
Yeah.
So like, are they saying that they actually like filmed it and it didn't get funding or are they saying like there was never anything from the start?
They filmed it. They got funding to film it. Somebody put up the money to film one episode and then they shopped it around.
Like nobody would buy it.
Or they showed it to whoever funded it
and people were like,
we're not gonna go forward with this show.
Oh shit, and that's usually what happens?
Apparently, but I got lucky.
The show I got on, they had already bought
like a first season.
So there's other stuff that goes into it
where it's like, sometimes it's like a production company
that makes the show and then sells it to the network
or a network will make a show and sell it to another network.
I'm not like totally sure how the whole thing works,
but this show in particular,
the network itself was funding it.
There was no other source.
It was like they put up the money, it's their show.
So they're like, we're gonna do one season of this.
And the guys that produced it are old TV guys.
They've been working in Hollywood for a long time
They know how to make a TV show work
That's pretty sick. Yeah, so I really lucked out and like you you feel like
Like that's what you want to do
Hmm, like it's not really like work for you. It's kind of like I love this shit
Is I mean it's work in some aspects, but dude, it's like yeah, I love that shit
I feel so lucky to get to do it.
In some aspects, in a lot of aspects,
it feels easier than standup.
Because standup is just you generating it
and making everything happen.
That, it's like, they give you a script,
you can add to it if you want,
you can make it your own and have fun within it,
but it's like, they're like, show up at this time,
we're gonna feed you, everybody's gonna be really nice to you
they're really nice to you yeah if you're the actor there everybody's just
like it's pretty sick man it's I mean it's it's pretty awesome seasonal thing
like how long do you film and then how long of a break do you have it just
depends like we did the first season and then the strike happened so then it was
like I guess not and then we did the second season and then the strike happened. So then it was like, I guess not. And then we did the second season
and we knew we were gonna get to do the third season already.
So it was like, we knew we were doing the second season
in winter and then the third season in the summer.
And now the third season's airing
and we don't even know if we're gonna do a fourth season yet.
We're not gonna know till like March or April.
So like for like the second season per se,
how long did that take to film?
Like out of the year, how many months out of the year?
Are you working?
Two to three months, three months.
And then the rest of the months you can just do like stand up?
Yeah, or fuck off.
Yeah.
I like fuck off a little bit.
Fucking jerk off and shit.
Yeah.
I did some traveling.
That's pretty sick.
Blew some money.
Yeah.
Went to Mexico, tried to learn to surf.
Yeah.
Not worth it.
Damn, dude.
Are you like, you still work on your own stuff?
My own stand up?
Yeah.
No, like your own, obviously you work on your own stand up,
but I just mean like your own sketches and stuff.
Yeah, but I work again when I'm doing sketches, I feel like,
I don't know.
I don't love writing so much.
I need to get better about doing it.
But a lot of the sketches I do are just other people being like, let's try this. And I'm like, I don't know, I don't love writing so much. I need to get better about doing it, but a lot of the sketches I do are just other people
being like, let's try this, and I'm like, cool.
Or it's like an improvised sketch,
where you just show up and you start working,
but it's all done with a dude, Keegan Tindall.
I mean, I do sketches with that dude,
and it's like, he knows how to set it up,
he edits everything, he knows which ideas are good
to run with, or I'll work with like a lot early on and we'll be
more collaborative but
Or like Harris Alterman. I'll just jump it on his shit. Yeah, you know what I mean? All right, so
Yeah, I'm trying to make more sketches
But the ideas I have are so retarded that no one else is on board
But I know in my heart that they're good good idea. Do you have an idea in mind
that you can throw at me right now?
Yeah, dude, I might put it out soon.
You can be in it if you want.
I would love to.
I love doing sketches.
Yeah, man, like the idea is,
takes place in an Applebee's parking lot,
and it's about dudes who peel out
in Applebee's parking lots,
and every engine rev is like a flashback to like a failed
marriage.
So that's kind of like the whole idea.
Does that make sense?
Yeah, I like it.
You know, so it's like an engine rev and then a flashback to like some dude's wife leaving
him like because of how small his penis is.
And he's thinking about that every engine rev.
So in between that, are you basically shooting a documentary style?
Like, yeah, I've been peeling out of these Applebee's for a couple years now.
It's all like a biography of my life.
And then it revs.
And then the punch line is I actually have a news report of a guy who drove
through an Applebee's. So that's the punch. Like I have an a news report of a guy who drove through an Applebee's mm-hmm
So that's the punch like I have an actual news report. I can just put like my mugshot over it
You have a mugshot. I mean I can get one dude. I don't have a LinkedIn picture. Yeah
But it high thing behind it yeah, man. She like that you know
Yeah, just like too retarded for people to get on board with it's not at all. What are you talking about?
I mean, I don't know.
People are just not invested in it, man.
You got cameras, dude.
Do it yourself, man.
I'll let it rip, dude.
Let it rip.
I'll let you know how it goes, man.
The more you do it, the more you learn.
Yeah.
Put it out.
Yeah, you're right, man.
Make it happen for yourself.
You learn along the way.
