I take a big dump and I'm fucking sitting on the couch in my robe for a week rubbing ice on my ass. I can't imagine. I mean, Jesus Christ, no. You fucking. Bob Kelly, I think he's an experimental guy sexually and he just he's been keeping it under wrap you know by the way let's talk about a little resume he's on a great show

Starting point is 00:05:14 But I did notice watching you Because I You're a friend of mine A comedian friend And I'm watching the show So I was And when I went to your house For your kid's birthday party
Starting point is 00:05:23 Yeah The one time that I came in Didn't circle the house and go Oh god that was fucking crazy But no you told me That you had to learn the drum I saw the fake drum set In your bedroom or whatever

Starting point is 00:05:40 You didn't buy that yourself Dennis did right No You didn't I'm on cable TV, dude. The fuck does that mean? That means I'm not me. Dennis has 17 horse farms.
Starting point is 00:05:50 He does have a lot of, he has a lot of horses too. He could buy you those drums for your kid's birthday. He's got horses. And the guy, John Corbett on the show, he's married to Bo, with Bo Derek. And they have horses too. What's up with fucking, as soon as white people get rich, they get horses. Um, I have a horse, singular. This is how it's going to end.
Starting point is 00:06:15 If it has one more ankle injury or whatever, I'm going to fucking pull her. You know what? Like they did on the Sopranos. Why? Did you get hurt? My horse got hurt. It's not mine. It's my wife's. I'm afraid of horses horses i sat on it for a second i said get me down like a little kid she fucking she blew her knee out on the horse but anyways we digress we'll get that today uh yeah so you're playing the friggin drums yeah i had to learn well
Starting point is 00:06:42 here's the thing is that when I got the part I figured I was going to audition and I figured there's a bunch of other comedians Michael Chiklis is an amazing drummer is that right Billy Burr is a Philly can play he's like an AC DC playing with AC he's incredible he's a really great drum he's been drumming since you know 25 years still do it yeah all the fucking time I didn't know that about Billy. And Jimmy Norton plays the French horn, right? Speaking of Tom Sizemore. I was like, fuck it, I got to learn how to play the drums. Because if that's why I don't get it, it's going to suck.
Starting point is 00:07:22 And then I wound up getting it. And then we're doing press and Dennis is like, I wrote this part for Bobby. I was like, you wrote this for me? Like literally at the press event. I'm like, he's like, yeah, I wrote it for you. I go, I go, and you just assumed I'd fucking learn drums. And he's like, yeah, you did. Didn't you?
Starting point is 00:07:40 You fuck. I'm like, yeah, yeah, I did. But that's a pretty big assumption two boston guys yeah he is definitely a boston guy but yeah i mean impressive man because i watch it and i go because i think i said to andy i go no he when i went to his house he had fucking drums that he had to learn on yeah you just think i don't know what today's cgi they drop in a fucking buddy rich's hands On your body or something
Starting point is 00:08:06 I think they spent all that money when they did the flashback And they had to thin me out They did I remember I was They had to put a wig on me And thin me out And I remember when I looked at the poster I go, I thought you were going to thin me out. You're going to use CGI.
Starting point is 00:08:28 Because they did on Dennis' wrinkles and John Corbett. Ooh, secrets we're getting, folks. Well, because fucking Dennis looks like every lesbian comedian out right now, right? Yes. I thought it was Tig Notaro's mother. We'll get to Dennis in a second. I don't know what I did to piss him off. But he was like, yeah, we use the CGI. his uh mother so we'll get to dennis in a second i don't know what i did to piss him off but uh
Starting point is 00:08:45 but he uh yeah he he was like yeah we use the cgi they thin my titties out and i still look fat they thinned them out and put a wig on them the same shit they're doing with hillary for the campaign that fat cunt anyways you're not voting for hillary uh i don't like girls that have ankles like clydesdales and the fucking face of a fucking French bull master. So you vote for Bernie? Yes. I'm going with Bernie. You really are. Is that really what you think, Mike?
Starting point is 00:09:09 You know me, for Christ's sake. There's nobody right wing enough out there. Well, coming down your street, everybody's fucking voting for Bernie up here. Why? Did you see signs? Oh, yeah. I'll pull those fuckers out tonight. No, you can't do that.
Starting point is 00:09:20 I didn't see any. Are you serious? Yeah, dude. Coming down this fucking white. Okay. And I love that you said that. I didn't even notice. Are you serious? Yeah, dude. Coming down this fucking white person. Okay. And I love that you said that. I didn't even notice that.
Starting point is 00:09:28 Yeah. Okay. That shows you how dumb these fucking people are. These real fucking left wingers. They're voting for fucking Bernie Sanders. Okay. He's a socialist. But they live up here in this Tony Westchester County. So that means they're for a property right.
Starting point is 00:09:43 Private property rights. Which makes him a fucking anything but a socialist. You understand? Yeah. Westchester County. So that means they're for a property right, private property rights, which makes them a fucking anything but a socialist. You understand? Yeah. What Bernie stands for is, you know, completely opposite. Yet these idiots have Sanderson in front of their nice Westchester houses. Dubs.
Starting point is 00:09:58 I love all the middle acts that I work with that are Bernie Sanders fans. Of course. Then you ask him anything about his policies and they don't know shit. I'm going to pay you what I paid the emcee then. Yeah, there you go. There you go. How's that?
Starting point is 00:10:10 There you go. I said about Bernie Sanders, I don't know if you, a couple months ago, they talked about how he wrote back in the 70s. He tried to write some erotica for some magazine in the village. And he said that when a woman's having sex with her husband
Starting point is 00:10:24 and she's actually imagining fantasizing about being raped by three guys at once I go that's how you know he's a hardcore socialist even in his rape fantasies we have to share the pussy equally between three guys take it easy he's a fag
Starting point is 00:10:41 I don't mind this is what I like about Bernie though because he's authentic he's a real dude very authentic and he sticks to his fucking guns and I don't know I love that he's not getting any money from these pieces of shit neither is Trump I mean look Trump absolutely but he's we don't really
Starting point is 00:11:01 know that he's getting money from somewhere he must he doesn't need it he's a business man he doesn't have to that. He's getting money from somewhere. He must be. He doesn't need it. He's a businessman. He doesn't have to. I guarantee he's not spending his fucking nickel, his whole dime. Well, no, there'll be, no, but the point is he's not getting the super PAC money. Yeah. But yeah, no, you're right.
Starting point is 00:11:15 I mean, he's had to work the system, I'm sure. Oh, he's getting something somewhere. But come on, fucking, you can't afford to do, we're not going to get into heavy politics. You can't afford to do what Bernie's promising. You can't afford to fucking, you know what I mean? That works in a country where there's 300,000 people. Everybody can be on the dole. Not with 330 million people.
Starting point is 00:11:32 It's fucking silly. But people just. Do okay. Yeah. We're fucked. We're fucked. But your boss, Dennis Leary, I don't know what. What?
Starting point is 00:11:42 I used to have a cozy relationship. They used to call me every year to do comics, come home and shit and then i think i pissed them off during a comics come home thing or something i don't know something just i get a cold feeling from them guys what'd you do i don't know you know i'll probably just be my cocky self and one of the fucking guys driving us complained or something i i don't know. Really? I just get a weird. The reason I say that, because I remember doing the last one I did. Not the last one. We did one down in Philly one year. It wasn't even comics come home.
Starting point is 00:12:12 But it was me, Lenny. Were you on that show? We did something in Philly. No. And fucking Robert's addicted to his phone. I'm not. I'm shutting it off. Everybody's calling me.
Starting point is 00:12:22 But I remember Lenny. I was I go I'm leaving I had to leave before the show was over and he goes Nick say goodbye To everybody and I was like what did that mean Well you know what it is though I don't think there is anything because Every time your name comes up Because I love fucking dinner And I tell you I actually wouldn't tell you
Starting point is 00:12:41 Completely on air but I think Every time your name comes up, it's always good. And that thing you did with Amy Schumer last year, I remember them talking about it, like in conversation. Really? I would love to hear. See, Dennis had a show called The Job on ABC years ago. Yeah. And I auditioned for it, and I had a horrible audition.
Starting point is 00:13:03 I was nervous because it was dennis yeah you should and because i didn't want to um because i knew him and i didn't i don't know i put extra pressure on myself yeah knowing i wanted to do a good job and i and i just had a bad audition well that happened to me too dude i i i did an audition for dennis remember project green light yeah i auditioned for them and I was I I had I had did the job I'm not the I did one episode of the job I played a Puerto Rican guy or yeah I remember that right I come in and I'm like oh I know these guys I love these guys these are the guys I want to work with and I I went to some acting class and they were like you know if there's a basketball in this bring a basketball or if we bring something to do

Wait a minute, that's not the first time I've heard that from Bob Kelly. So I start, I have a mouth full of nuts. And I do this audition, and I'm just chewing. Are we back to Tom Sizemore scene? Right.

I only saw one episode, the one you were in, and I saw the thing with Dan Soder and Michelle Wolf that you did. Yeah. That was fun. Which was actually funny, man. It was really fucking good.

Dude, her body, her butt was just such a fucking amazing ass. Yeah, because she was probably 20 years old, right? 21? She was smoking. Dude, her body, her butt was just such a fucking amazing ass.

She didn't even like, she said, I got it. And she she took care of it she didn't even like like she said i got it and she just took care of it and then we went to sleep well and what's funny about that the backdrop is 9-11 all this shit
Starting point is 00:22:56 oh yeah the fuck the tv's on it just was a repeat of planes hitting buildings but how horrible is life where you have one of your greatest moments you're literally licking whipped cream out of a 20 year old asshole and some people are jumping from 109 store that if that doesn't sum up with this fucking horrible it was fun it was bad it was really sad and i think i that we you know we kind of me and this girl were like fuck is this the end of the world type shit like oh and if it was the end of the world It doesn't make sense that she just let me Fucking fuck her butt cheeks No she should have went all crazy Is what you're saying right?
Starting point is 00:23:31 If it was the end of the world You gotta write a bit about this The fact that she didn't like fucking let you do the crazy shit To her thinking She's thinking it might be the end of the world She should have been like fucking You know peeing in your face And you should get her in a headlock We should have got the key grip next door and the fucking best

Well, I was kind of hoping. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:26 My little Sopranos, my two lines as a cop. I'm like, he's a dirty cop. I'm reading into it. Why wouldn't he be around the Bing all the time? You do it all the, it's a bad habit to do because the guy who was the side guy. Yeah. He wound up being one of the main guys on Rescue Me. I remember watching the show going oh my god that's
Starting point is 00:24:46 the fucking side guy in my episode the side guy from my episode wound up being a main guy in rescue me for fucking eight years now why do you think that is dude it's just dennis liked him dude he did something or he came back in and auditioned on the right day. And they, oh, you're from, oh, yeah. And I didn't. Oh, I don't. I know. It'll make you nuts.
Starting point is 00:25:11 But I tell you what, though. Dennis, there's certain guys. Adam Sandler. There's certain guys that, and even Chris Rock and Louie, they take their fucking friends with them. And Leary's one of those guys. He didn't do it for me. Well, he did for a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:25:30 That's how bad my audition was. A lot of people. That's what I'm saying. I'm not blaming Dennis. That's how bad I was, even as a friend. But my point is this, is that, you know, look, I thought the same thing. Like, oh, shit, I'm from Boston. I'm a comic.
Starting point is 00:25:41 What'd I do? But here I am years later, i'm all a rescue me i didn't do one episode not one and here i am years later and now i'm on a show with them so you just have to be i know you can't and you can't expect it i i don't take it for granted that like louis uses me and shit but you gotta also deliver when you get the shot that's the other thing people don't give you credit for it's like you could be blood brothers if you suck they're not gonna fuck he's not gonna you're doing horace and uh or some pete horse and pete yeah i i i'm not i'm i watch that and go fuck i would love to do that yeah well you're on sex drugs and rock and roll and you're in every
Starting point is 00:26:18 episode i know no no i i but you have to it is you have to put it in perspective like i remember doing louis and he asked me to do one little line, and then it was another one, and then it was another one. All of a sudden, I was in an episode, and I was like, holy shit. Like, this is the greatest shit ever. And then you're not in for two seasons, and people are like, well, what's happened? It's like, dude.
Starting point is 00:26:37 That's how it works. But I want to tell people, shut the fuck up. Because I don't want Louis to hear. You know what I mean? It's like, I'll be in something when Louie puts me in something. Right. I love what he puts me in. And if it's anything or nothing, stop fucking with it.
Starting point is 00:26:52 And you delivered. You were good on it. So again, forget when TV or movies, you know, they write characters. You have to be, if you don't fit the character description or whatever. Yeah. You know what I mean? They don't fit the character description or whatever, you know what I mean? They'll use you for something they think you're appropriate for. And it's too, when I work with Louis and even Dennis too and Serpico,
Starting point is 00:27:16 but when you're working across from Louis or with Louis in a scene, he makes you so much better. You know what I mean? He really fucking pulls it out of you. What surprised the shit out of me? I never thought he had any intentions on being an actor. Yeah. He was always the guy behind the camera
Starting point is 00:27:28 writing the shit. I almost shit. Like when, even when he did Lucky Louie on HBO, I go, I never knew he wanted, he would aspire to be an actor at all. And he's good.
Starting point is 00:27:37 It surprised the shit. Now he's really good. He used that as like a practice. The Lucky Louie, there was some, he'll tell you, he was very green as an actor. But I mean, knowing him that good, I almost shit my pants.
Starting point is 00:27:50 I go, this guy wants to be like a leading guy? It's weird, right? He can do everything. Everything. You know who's fucking directing half of the episodes of Sex Drugs? Let me take a guess. Don't even tell me. Is it somebody, a comedian?
Starting point is 00:28:03 Jim Serpico. Oh. The producer? Okay. You know, who, Jimmy's part? He's directing now? take a guess don't even tell me is it somebody a comedian jim serpico oh the producer okay you know who uh jimmy's he's directing now dude he's fine he directed marin last year uh a couple episodes then he had his own pilot uh his own show he's a showrunner on uifc network for benders which him and tom saletti wrote and then he now he's directing half the episodes this year so he's fucking directing now which is and he wasn't even jim serpico that's dennis's partner at apostle pictures he wasn't even in show business before apostle pictures right he was or i might be wrong there he was no he he's a fucking trumpet player a trumpet play a he's a jazz trumpet player him and his dad okay are you
Starting point is 00:28:46 serious absolutely and then he uh he was dennis's assistant became his partner now he's a the uh producer and now he's director yeah that's called stick-to-itiveness yeah something i never had i jumped from job to job. No, you didn't. The moral of that story is I should have stayed with a trumpet. Did you have a trumpet? Yes. So, I mean, back to the, I don't think that.
Starting point is 00:29:18 It's just like, like even Louis. It's like, I can't, Horace and Pete, I can't. I watch it and I'm like, oh, it's fucking awesome. And you never know. Like 10 years from now, he might be like, hey, bro, I want you to do this thing. Of course. No, it really is. But it's hard. That's just natural.
Starting point is 00:29:32 I mean, because you want steady work no matter what it is, whether you're digging ditches, a mailman or a fucking, especially our business, you need a little security. Luckily, we're comedians and can earn a nice living. But if I have to get on a plane one more time to fucking Denver or fucking wherever, Cleveland or I'm mentioning cities I haven't been to in 10 years. I really do love being home. Of course you do. I wake up at 5 in the morning, drive to set. What are you, a fisherman?
Starting point is 00:29:59 5 in the fucking morning. Yeah, I got to drive to Glendale, Queens to the studio. Tell Dennis to start at fucking seven what's he all right cool ira he is you got a good workout but there's nothing i come home at like eight o'clock sometimes dude i love it i fucking love it come on to your wife and kids i fucking i stayed home friday night i wait you don't want to be out dude Dude, Friday night I stayed home for the first time in years. How'd it feel? Great, didn't it?
Starting point is 00:30:29 It felt great. I'll tell you how it felt. Do you remember, I don't know if you were like me, but I drank every weekend in high school and, for Christ's sake, every weekend in college. And when I got out of college, I lived next to bars. But then one weekend, I was next to bars every fucking, every, but then one weekend I was too tired to go out.
Starting point is 00:30:48 Yeah. I'll never forget it. And it dawned on me, you have been getting fucked up every weekend since you were like 16. I stayed in for a weekend. It fucking felt like an adult. I go, I don't have to feel shitty on Sunday morning. Have the shits and a headache
Starting point is 00:31:05 And it felt fucking great And now after being married I want to go back out Drink please I said I said on one track I'm so married I miss getting chlamydia What the fuck
Starting point is 00:31:20 Do they even have chlamydia Nobody has chlamydia anymore What are you kidding me That's the biggest one out there. No, it isn't. It most certainly is. Just read in the paper. When was the last time I heard somebody getting chlamydia?
Starting point is 00:31:32 What is chlamydia? Chlamydia is an STD. What is it? What does it do? Does it make you pee? Is that the one where you pee? Yeah, all of a sudden you look and your underwear has kind of a green, yellowish tint to it. And your prick is...
Starting point is 00:31:44 Why? Because you shoot stuff out of your dick? Yeah. Ugh. Yeah. I had that fucking... I lived next to the Palace Nightclub in Saugus, Massachusetts for a couple years. I was bringing that shit home like leftovers from a restaurant. How many girls hated me?

Me and my buddy Tony, good looking, my my good-looking roommate who was a bartender, Fanny Hall, there was a group, you can Google them, called the Copycats. They were six or eight hot girls. They would come in in spandex and they would lip-sync.

Starting point is 00:33:42 The Palace Nightclub was like the hottest place on the North Shore, and I live within walking distance of it. We were there at the grand opening. Christ's sake, a month into it, we were best friends with the owners. You know, I had, you know, relationships where I ended up banging an owner's, whether it was his girlfriend or ex-girlfriend. I was worried about, like, Italian guys kicking the shit out of me from Revere. I mean, it got messy.
Starting point is 00:34:05 It was like a movie. It was like the Copa for, you know, but fucking crazy. It was crazy. And we, it was huge too. It started a small place. Then they redid it and it became this fucking massive discotheque. Yeah. With like different areas of it.

And there's four other podiums with other guys on it. The whole palace, all fucking 2,000 people in there. Every girl is around his thing looking up at him. And then we would leave with him at the
Starting point is 00:35:26 end of the night. And he couldn't have been a nicer, more humble guy. Oh my God. He was he, but he, this guy was an Adonis. He was fucking shredded. He could dance like a, he would just, they would look up at him. There was, I'm trying to buy a girl's drink. They wouldn't even look at you. They're staring at your fucking friend's ass.

Since my special, where I'm there, I've noticed they've been picking it up. They really have. That's what I hear. I heard it. I'm watching TV, and there's a guy from Showtime sort of tooting their own horn saying, but we're legitimate again, and blah, blah, blah.

Starting point is 00:50:05 He starts doing Florentine So I'm looking around the studio That's funny I thought he was sitting where I couldn't see him Florentine For like three minutes And I'm going And then Howard started giggling
Starting point is 00:50:18 And what's his name pops his head up That's weird That's weird that I stumbled across You know my Artie Lang That I know No You know that I called you as Artie Oh go ahead
Starting point is 00:50:29 We literally had a conversation I think I've done it On your show before It's a certain thing though I can't do it You gotta You gotta get your There it is right there
Starting point is 00:50:39 Yeah The Yeah Nick The show we're on If If you could just keep your mouth shut for fucking 10 seconds, we'd go to snobbing on the air. Now you're in your basement with your fucking wife upset.
Starting point is 00:50:50 Fucking guy. Cox, I can play the no, no, no, no. Howard was... No, they're ignorant. That's ignorant. Who the fuck's that? Steve Byrne? That's a fucking good arty, man.
Starting point is 00:51:04 It's all right. I got to get into it. The more I get into it. Yeah. Who else did, though? That's it. That's all I got. Bullshit.
Starting point is 00:51:14 I don't do any impressions. Do Colin. That's not true. How great is Colin's show? How fun is that? What show is that? Cop show. I've never done it.
Starting point is 00:51:22 Fuck you. You're lying. I've seen you on it. You're lying. How do you fucking do it? You are so, you big. Who is that? Cop show. I've never done it. Fuck you. You're lying. I've seen you on it. How do you fucking do it? You are so, you big... Who's that? I just happened to look down and it was the lion. Buddy, listen.
Starting point is 00:51:33 Colin's show, to me... It's the funniest fucking shit. It should be... He must have really done... He must have pissed somebody off in the business, too. Because, I mean, like Brooklyn 9... Whatever is it? Brooklyn 9... 9-7-0-7-0-4. Okay. piss somebody off in the business too because i mean like brooklyn nine whatever is it brooklyn
Starting point is 00:51:45 nine nine four one seven oh four okay i mean it couldn't carry fucking collins fucking yeah it is so funny i think that comedy shows like that though just in the last 10 years they got very politically correct they'd rather go for a broad comedy that's silly and goofy, and you can have every fucking... Yeah, stereotype. Every dealership you want, everybody wants to fucking have commercials on it. I mean, cop shows, you have to fucking really know funny
Starting point is 00:52:18 to laugh at some of that. No, you're absolutely right. There's a subtle nuance, this irony that people don't pick up. Well, that's Quinn. I mean, his writing was always a little too nuanced and too brilliant for people, in my opinion. He made me a fucking Chinese. I was just going to.
Starting point is 00:52:38 This year, he made me a Chinese woman, Tibetan woman a Tibetan woman drug smuggler named Sister Ping. But it's so funny that you and I just said it's so nuanced and shit and then you say that. He may be a Chinese woman with a wig on
Starting point is 00:52:54 and fucking explore. I'm like a fucking child. Yeah, he, that show's fun, though, man. Yes, he had me do. Has the next season come out yet, or is it this month? He's editing it. He's editing. He's editing.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Season two is out now, but season three is coming out. That we already did. We just did three, right? Yeah. He's got me doing, he did a spoof on, you know what? He's got me doing, he did a spoof on, you know what, Johnny Depp when he played the Italian. Donnie Brasco. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:53:35 Wow. Wow. That's because I don't sleep, man. Donnie Brasco. You're still not sleeping? Here and there. No suggestions. I've tried everything. I have nothing either.
Starting point is 00:53:44 I got some heroin up in my room tonight. I'm going to see how that works. He had me do, we did like a spoof of Donnie Brasco. Get rid of your horse. Maybe you'll take a snap. I'm not going to fucking pay for hay. Donnie Brasco,
Starting point is 00:54:02 you know, forget about it. It seemed, what is forget about me? Oh, and he gives like nine different explanations. Well, he did it with me. What does Allah Akbar mean? And he's got me doing the whole thing.
Starting point is 00:54:15 That's funny. It was so brilliantly written. And again, working with somebody you know as an actor. If you guys haven't seen Cop Show, which you probably have, but if you haven't, the idea is it's comedians who aren't that good of actors doing a cop show. Yeah. You know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:34 That's the idea of it. That's the idea. People don't know. They'll go, oh, he wasn't that good in that. It wasn't supposed to be. But I didn't know that. So I was acting the first season of Cop Show. I was actually trying to act my balls off.
Starting point is 00:54:44 Right. And they go, that was perfect. And then I found out later on, it's a show about guys who can't act. I go, what do you mean that was perfect? I wasn't trying to be a bad actor. Yeah. You fucking believe that shit? Well, I know.
Starting point is 00:54:57 When I did my scene, I actually, this is why I love it. Bobby can act his ass off, by the way. Mr. Robert Kelly can act his balls off. Keith couldn't get his fucking line right. Surprise, man. And this is before the stroke. So I remember I go, I just started yelling at him. I go, you can't.
Starting point is 00:55:17 It's fucking one line. You fucking. You keep calling me Mr. Ping. Auntie Ping, it's sister, you fucking jack, and I just flipped out, he flips out back on me.
Starting point is 00:55:32 Did you? You guys got heated with each other? But it was funny, we were doing, and he left it, I don't know if he's going to use it, but he just kept cameras fucking rolling. How was my friend doing anyway?
Starting point is 00:55:42 I talked to him probably, I'd say 10, 12 days ago. Keith is, he had a stroke by the way, probably, I'd say, 10, 12 days ago. Keith is... He had a stroke, by the way, folks, if you guys... Yeah, Keith Robinson, who is, you know, one of the fucking greatest guys, one of my great friends, and, you know, a fucking hilarious guy. Just a good guy. Yeah, and he had a stroke, and he's walking on his own now, no cane.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Oh, really? Yep. Oh, good. stroke and he's uh he's walking on his own now no cane um oh really yep oh good he's talking oh i just talked to him the other day he's talking just better way i mean he's talking it's not you can't even there's no really he's on the phone when i taught him he seemed a little a little bit but no we talked for a while too and usually that's what get tired he didn't get tired he's talking good good this is all good his hand is little. He's got to work on the hand on the right hand. Yeah. He's got to get that back. How about his jab and his hook?
Starting point is 00:56:29 Left hand. Good. Right hand. If you ever get into a fight with him, just stay on the right. And Southpaw that motherfucker. But yeah, no, he's doing good, man. He's going to therapy. He's back home.
Starting point is 00:56:40 He actually came to the city a couple of times for dinner. So, you know, he's got to keep going, though. He's got to really keep pushing it. He's got to the city a couple times for dinner So he's got to keep going though He's got to really keep pushing it He's got to get that arm back He's got to get the speech back 100% But I think he's It didn't affect his brain That's debatable
Starting point is 00:56:56 Well there's got to be a brain there to affect That's what I'm saying So yeah he's got to take his meds Good That's what I said to him on the phone. He goes, yeah, I wouldn't take my blood pressure meds. I go, what are you, an old guinea? You're like my uncle.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Yeah. He has a heart attack. He literally, my uncle has a heart attack. Quit smoking for like three weeks and he's back at it. Cutting wood in the back. Seriously, old school Ginza Loon. But I was driving home thinking. Ginza Loon.

Still with Frost and now I'm with Apostle. Do you look forward to getting on a plane? Because I know people, I know comedians who have a wife and a baby at home look forward to the peace and quiet.
