Shine on me
And I will find a song I've been singing just for you
I'm just gonna go home I'm just gonna go home
I'm just gonna go home
And I'll be home What you said to those girls I was with last night? What?
That's what you're going to do?
Like what you did to those girls last night I was with?
The girls, they seem like nice girls.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No, I was going to say, you look like my science teacher, Mrs. Hayes.
Dude.
And she was a Creole.
I'm tired of you right now, dude.
No, I'm serious.
Your attitude right now.
What?
We just got in here.
She was a Creole woman. She's a Creole woman.
She's a Creole woman.
Oh, okay.
So there's some brown in her.
Yeah, yeah.
Like there's a lot of mixing that-
Listen, if I'm with a girl at the comic store and you walk up and you say something like,
hey, you like hang out with a boiled egg?
And then you walk away giggling.
It don't make me look good.
It don't make me look fine.
And it hurt my feelings.
You know what I mean?
It's like, that's not a layup.
You know what I mean?
That's like, you go up there and you go pop, pop, pop, pop.
Right, and then you just walk away.
Nothing.
I get nothing from you.
Right?
Yeah.
But you know what, dude?
She laughed.
And that's good. Well, I didn't mean it.
I wasn't trying to, like, throw you under the rickshaw or whatever.
I was just trying, I was like, I thought a boiled egg was like important in y'all's
community or whatever.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, a boiled egg is important in many communities.
Yeah, Irish do it.
Oh, yeah.
Right?
Probably Africa.
They do probably have ostriches.
Yeah, a potato is just a fucking gay boiled egg
Another thing is she was cute
Thank you. Is it girl you're dating? No, it's just somebody I was trying to hit on yeah, and I lost the momentum and
She'll probably never see me again because of the boiled egg comment. That's not true. Yeah, yeah, 100% true.
And you seem to do that a lot.
Do I really?
No.
My bad, man.
That was the one time.
You know, but here's another thing.
I have some problems I have with you.
So I just, I'm not gonna write it down,
but I'm gonna show you this.
You got a JPEG of it?
No, no, no, it's just a text that you gave me.
Also, secondly, do you think that I should,
do you think I kinetically know where the fuck this place is?
Yeah, I was supposed to tell you.
Yeah, I mean, right?
I'm in the car driving like,
I don't know where this place is, all right?
And then number three, this, okay?
So a couple, maybe two weeks ago, or last week you go,
bro, I need podcast guests next week.
Can you help me?
Which I'm your friend, dude, right?
Thank you.
But then you also say, also, I don't know if you've heard,
but I'm bi.
Yeah.
And then, I didn't know how to take that,
so I just said, I'm down.
Yeah.
Right?
I said, I'm down, right?
And we kind of moved on from it, right?
That doesn't concern you, because apparently you were joking here. Well, when you said I'm down, right? And we kind of moved on from it, right? That doesn't concern you
because apparently you were joking here.
Well, when you said I'm down, I'm like,
is he showing up to podcast?
Oh, I see.
Is he showing up to podcast?
Oh, for me to fuck.
Yeah, I should have said I will do your podcast.
But even if you thought that, you would go,
no, dude, I was just kidding.
Yeah.
But you never did that.
I didn't get time.
You threw it out there as a truth, right?
And then I don't know what the thing,
if you're bi dude, I'm good with it.
If I was bi, I would know, I think, you know?
You know what I'm saying?
You would have an inkling or something.
Like your ears would ring when you got around
a gay dude or something, you know?
I think, but yeah, I didn't know if you were coming
to pot or coming to let me poke that yolk, Coney.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, I think that we've known each other for so long
I don't think that we would ever poke, even if we,
even if there was sexual attraction.
Oh, yeah, we would've.
No, no, there's no way.
Bro.
No, no, what?
Yeah, you know.
You were definitely, you were, yeah.
So if we both had sexual attraction with each other. Or to men. Yeah, you know you were definitely you were yeah, so if we both had sexual attraction
With each other or two men yeah, did two men. I don't think that you would find me attractive Yeah, I would brother really 100% okay, dude, and I mean that and I want to say to you
I promise I would take you out. I want to say to you did oh
Thanks, but thank God we don't
Yeah, thank God. No, it's like
But if something happened, right?
Say something happened to all the women.
There was like a big sinkhole
and all the women were there.
And all the women disappeared, right?
Or there was a big sail and then under the sail there was a sinkhole.
Wait, they're on a ship?
No, like a big clothing sail or jewelry sail.
I thought you were like Noah's Ark.
They're all just on a gigantic ship with a sail.
Two of every... Yeah.
Yeah, no. You get a pair of redheads, right? A pair of ching chongs.
Yeah. What? We don't use that type of language on the ship. Okay. Well, Chinese then? Is that better? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's fair.
Yeah. Yeah, chops. We call them.
And also another Cops, we call them. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
And also another thing I wanna say, because I have a lot of gripes.
But we would have a date though, dude.
Bobby, if we, look at that.
Yeah, but those are just friends hanging out.
Is that?
I mean, one of us is hanging out.
Santino just keeps fucking FaceTiming.
I just gotta pick it up.
What's up, man?
Oh, look at this.

Dude, congratulations.
Yeah, yeah.
I love you, boy.
All right, I'll see you later, dude, okay?
Congratulations.
Why would you text me for that?
Or call me for that?
But at least he cares, though.
It's so dumb, dude.
You think? He grew up as a Cubs fan though. I know it's just like you fucking face time me
Oh, yeah, I threw a ball at you know I mean yeah, I'm very August II. Yeah. Yeah, I threw a plum to a
Yeah, anyway, let's go back to fucking here. It is Wow Wow they have it on the thing
Wow, wow they have it on the thing. Oh
He doesn't even get a really human being he gets a bear
He hugs the bear
For comedy he does it for comedy. Oh, it's so cool. I'm so proud of them. Have you ever thrown one out?
Yes, I've ever thrown a baseball in my life
Really? Yeah, I've seen them in museums. What about a thrown like a hot bow or something bow bun I've done that yeah many times yeah grandma check catch you know me whatever whatever the
language is but my last gripe is this and then we can talk normally all right yeah I'm sorry
about that man about what whatever the first gripe was. Okay, you don't remember, honestly you don't remember? I had a couple gripes.
Yeah, but you didn't want to date with me. Okay, that's good. So here's another thing. I don't know what happened to you.
And congratulations by the way.
For what? For being white?
I don't know. It's messed up. I don't know.
Ms. Hayes? The congratulations for being so white.
No, but your success and stuff.
But something happened where, you know, a lot of times you and I share the same people, fans, right?
But you've tapped into a fan base that doesn't like me that much.
No way. And I'll tell you who they are. Supermodel gypsies.
Really?
They have Hanna tattoos on their necks, right?
They look at me like, at the store last time,
they were like, you know what I mean?
They wanted to see Ching Chong.
Yeah, yeah.
And guess what, dude, you know what I want to tell them?
If Theo is the Beatles, I'm definitely Yoko Ono. I'm a part of the ecosystem of the
Beatles or whatever. But they looked at Yoko and went, are you a part of it? You're just
a fan. I'm like, we call, we're friends. You know what I mean?
You're at least Chingo Star.
Yeah, I'm Chingo Star, dude, right?
Yeah, so it's a...
I'm sorry, man.
Really, I feel like everywhere I go,
everybody wants to ask me about you.
It could be anybody, construction workers,
people inside of a building.
It could be somebody that's a businessman,
a woman at a counter.
Everywhere I go, hospitals.
People are like, oh, tell me. Wait, wait, hospitals, people are like, oh tell me.
Wait, wait, wait, stop. I don't get it. No, no, no, stop, stop. At hospitals, you're saying,
so the construction workers, the nurses at hospitals, are they all Asian? Because I just,
you just made a voice. No, they're fans of yours. I know, I understand that, but are they all
Asian fans or just are they whites too? Because when you did the accent, it wasn't voice. No, they're fans of yours. I know, I understand that, but are they all Asian fans or just are they whites too?
Because when you did the accent, it wasn't clear.
Oh, I'll just, yeah, I think they're Asian.
Oh, tell me how you, tell me, tell me.
This is what you did.
Tell me about what you know about the Bobby Lee.
Is that what you wanna say?
Did you not go into an accent though?
Did I?
Maybe you didn't, do it again.
A lot of them. Do it again.
Okay.
A lot of them will be like.

But do you wanna, I'm concerned. Your fans, your fans are all over Bobby.
All over what?
Everything.
Every time I meet somebody they're like tell me about him, where can we get him?
Oh like I'm a, like a porg.
No like you're one of those.
You know what a porg is?
Uh uh.
Okay.
You're like one of those little head dolls that comes in that box, whatever this thing's called.
Bobble heads., it's pork
Funko pop. Yeah Funko pop. Oh fuck a pop. Yeah. Yeah
Like a fuck a pop. Yeah. Yeah, so they they ask as if I'm something that you could buy
Yeah, you they just you could not if you mass produce me that you can make money. Oh
My god, you're not going to technology, but if we had here put one of your hands up right now like that little cat that's
for magic at the uh no Korean salon or whatever I'm talking about I know what the cat is, it's just like they don't know who I am. That's not true Bobby.
No, those henna tattooed gypsy witches that like you now, they're all beautiful by the way.
I didn't, I don't know them.
You do.
What's that? You're talking about Kat Von D dude?
No, I love her.
Bro. She's the best.
I've worked with her before. You have?
A long long time ago, yeah. She's very, very, very white.
It's like, she's like a creature that's like,
she's almost like something that happens at midnight
for 40 minutes, you know?
Like she's very like, effervescent,
you know what I'm talking about?
What do you mean, at midnight for 40 minutes, what happens?
Like it's like a...
Dry. Yeah. The vagina opens. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no, she's married. Like a
mirage or whatever. Yeah, but that's also a vagina opening. Oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, apparently. Yeah.
If you have to do this with a girl, do you think the vagina's too big? You've
been in some coochie tunnels, I'll say that. You've been underground in Vietnam. What kind do you like?
Do you like the ones that stick out or you like tucked
Oh, I kind of like the ones like that look like they have a little bit of lip liner on them
Yeah, I like the combination of both
Oh when one lip is sticking out and one's tucked in right like one of them. It's like that. Um that bond me
I don't like if there's too much bond, you know
What do you mean by if it's a bond me kind of vibe? Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's too much bond. Yeah, yeah
And do you um I mean I don't know when's the last time you hooked up with a girl oh
This is too personal. You don't talk about it not talking about let me think um it's probably been
What we would don't know is I think that you are very picky
um I
Have to get this off my chest, man.
I told you about this last night.
What'd you tell me?
But I've been dating this person,
and every time we, and rarely do we do this,
make beautiful love.
Oh, God.
Yeah, the sacred rituals of love.
She goes, yeah, when I was, you know, eight years ago, yeah, I hooked up with Theo.
Yeah, but she says it every time we're naked. Mm-hmm. And it hurts me.
That's all. And I want to share that with you.
Fuck dude, that's that's crazy. I think I don't believe her. Oh, so you don't believe that you did hook up with her?
No. I don't believe her at all.
You know what? I don't believe her either. Because I know that you are very picky.
Yeah.
And you take your time.
Yeah.
El tiempo they call me.
Yeah. And you do long strokes.
Mmm.
Yeah.
I do strokes. I say it's long even though it isn't. I'd be like, oh that's long.
Yeah, yeah. You know what I mean by long strokes? Uh-uh
I mean, I'm thinking you're assuming sexual
Well, you know, it's something, you know, here's what I don't like people that are like, you know
I talk about somebody with aorta issues or whatever, huh? Yeah, sometimes. Yeah. Yeah, like somebody just
Like stroking for distance he strokes for a quarter mile.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's sort of like, you know, in the Olympics,
normally in the Olympics they do the breast stroke,
but if you slowed it down and they, you know what I mean?
You do those, you don't do those?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I do some of that.
Yeah, I do long, right?
And I take a nap. And then I do short oh yeah, and then I rest
Mmm. You take breaks. You're almost like um
stands of music kind of with like a like a
half um half note
Quarter note. Oh, you know what you're doing. You know when you do this. That's Asian vagina. It is yeah, it's linty
Is it really that's a lie? No, it's a lie. It's all folklore. Is it? It's regular like everyone else.
For years I, you know... I remember I almost made love to a Korean woman one time years ago, and this was in Idaho, and her legs kind of didn't separate.
It was almost like, do you ever get really strong chopsticks or whatever and you can't open them or whatever?
Wait, wait, wait. It was just like that, Bryce. I swear to God. Maybe it was a mermaid.
Huh?
Was it a mermaid?
I don't know.
Are there Korean Asian mermaids?
There have to be, huh?
Bring up an Asian mermaid or something, beached Asians or whatever.
Because if there were, they'd probably eat their own because they love sushi.
Oh, here we go
Wow
Yeah, there are and I'm the buy one
Yeah, this dude will swim through West Hollywood brother
I was in Hawaii that day, uh-huh, and I saw that at a store and I bought it immediately and I ran to the beach
I go take this photo
Dude, would you dude? I'm telling you right now. Oh
I go take this photo. Dude, would you, dude, I'm telling you right now.
Oh.
Little mermaid, oh, little mermaid would be better, oh.
With me in it, no?
Yeah.
It wouldn't be little mermaid, it'd be fat mermaid.
But yeah, they'd have like,
Up where they walk, up where they roam,
up where they play all day in the zoom.
The music would change. Wandering free. Yeah, yeah. Up where they play all day in the zoo
The music would change Wandering tree
We could be part of that world
Bobby Lee man good to see you. Good to see you man. Oh, those are my gripes. We're good
You know, you know, you've been going on the road, my boy, Amir Kay. Yeah, he's wonderful.
He's a wonderful man, dude.
Very funny.
Like, we're going fishing next week up in Oregon, actually.
Yeah, he loves fishing.
He's good at it.
Yeah, and you're doing shows up there?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
He's a good dude, and...
You don't tour as much.
People want to see you in more places, but you don't like leaving home as much.
Is that true?
Yeah, that's...
Okay.
I don't go out at all.
In fact, like, I'm going up to
Vancouver the 12th, and I'm doing with Sakura and she was like well
Can you do the day before and then the day after too because I'm playing Eugene in some place in Colorado and I?
Just do Vancouver. You know I mean because I just uh you don't like being away from home
I mean? Because I just, uh. You don't like being away from home? Well, I mean, just truth of the matter is,
is that I like doing standup and spurts.
Yeah.
And I'm not addicted to, like I see like Santino
and all these guys, they're all addicted to the, you know,
their dopamine hits.
I'm open, not dopamine, they're dopamine hits.
Not dopamine, wait, dopamine.
Dopamine hits, yeah.
They're dopamine hits, right?
Doing shows, and it's like,
I've just never been addicted to that dopamine hit.
Yeah.
You know, I love being at home.
Yeah.
Yeah, and I don't know how you do it,
because every time I'm on a line,
I see you, you're in Australia or wherever, whatever,
and you're killing it, and it's like,
I'm happy for you, but I just never had that addiction to it.
I think because of the fact that early on,
I had just so much trauma from it.
From being on stage?
Yeah.
Like one time I was at,
it's a casino gig in New Jersey.
I forgot what it was called.
And it's a casino gig that everyone played.
Montenegro?
I don't know what it was, but it was like,
and I remember they had this red curtain behind the stage.
And I remember one show I bombed so hard.
Cause this is before, I think now,
because I have fans that get now, you know because I have
Fans that get me, you know, I mean and but before
When I was just on that TV and stuff like my fans they I mean they were just they knew me from sketch
And so they wanted to see me do you know mean my catchphrases?
Yeah, like, you know, sometimes I do or oh hot uh-oh, hot dog. Or whatever, right?
Like Home Alone or whatever?
Beep.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know what I'm talking about?
Why don't they have an Asian Home Alone?
Why don't y'all make a Home Alone?
Right.
Well, the home is made out of rice paper, aren't they?
Yeah, sure.
Yeah, yeah.
And it's like, yeah, and they could get in quickly.
The burglars, right?
They could just run through like the Hulk, right?
So maybe that's why I think it'd be a 10-minute movie then. Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm home alone. I dying or whatever. That's very good clever, dude
You got well, I think different cultures should all have their own films. Okay, let's talk about it
So I think that they should be there should be a cast away. Mm-hmm, right?
but all an Asian guy, right?
But instead of him talking to the volleyball, what'd they call him?
Wilson.
Wilson, right?
Instead of that, he makes a volleyball factory, right?
He's a sweatshop.
He makes monkeys and stuff work, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Right?
So you do a little twist like that.
Yeah, yeah. I think more about the industry or something. It's more about work ethic. and stuff work, you know what I mean? Yeah. Right, so you do little twists like that. Yeah, yeah.
I think more about the industry or something.
It's more about work ethic.
Yeah, yeah.
You know what I mean?
And resilience in that way.
You know what I mean?
He could have a couple of stores going on,
factories going on, you know what I mean?
He could be making fucking volleyballs, right?
Yeah.
They should remake, I know, Wizard of Oz.
Oh.
All Asian.
What do you think? Wizard of Oz. All Asian. What do you think?
Wizard of ASEAN.
Excuse me?
ASEAN. Or ASEANs. Some people say, people aren't saying Asians as much anymore. A lot of people say...
Oh, that's weird. Who are saying it like that?
ASEANs.
Who's saying ASEANs?
I was at a hotel actually. I was in Australia and a lady said, we have a lot of ASEANs here.
And I was like, who are...
Oh, ASEANs. Yeah. We have a lot of ASEANs here. And I was like who are they? Oh ASEANs.
Yeah.
We have a lot of ASEANs here.
And I was like who are they?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was looking online and I couldn't figure it out.
Were you in Australia?

Can I just say something about you? You are one of the nicest guys I think I've ever met
in comedy. Really? Yeah. Thanks. I mean, I think, can I give you the my list? Yeah, okay, and and you'll probably know
But and let's we'll talk about men. Okay. Okay. Um, I'll talk about women too, but um, I think aside from you
Let's let's grade them from 1 to 10 niceness guessing it in well, but let's do it
Yes, okay, cuz I'm gonna give you names that are like nice. Okay, Greg Fitzsimmons
Oh, oh my god nine out of ten. Yeah, Greg Fitzsimmons. Oh my god. Nine
Out of ten. Yeah, for sure. And he has a new book that just came out. What's it called?
It's a special and he has a new video book that just came out
Yeah, and on YouTube. He was just on your podcast about it wasn't he? No. Greg Fitzsimmons. Yeah, you know me
So check that out. I love Greg. I love him. Alright, so let's go
Fiji Anwar.
Oh.
Nine.
Nine.
Yeah, I don't think anybody wants to be a 10.
Right, they have a little bit of thing
that makes them not be a 10.
Yeah, they're sick perverts, dude.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So that keeps everybody a little lower.
Nikki Glaser.
Eight or nine.
For men, six.
If she's supposed to be male, then she's doing a bad job.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, bad job.
Female, nine.
Yeah, for a female, I think she's a nine.
Yeah, she's nice.
Let's try to find a ten.
There's no ten?
The nicest?
The nicest guy in comedy.
I don't think I can find a ten then.
Because if fucking Greg Fitzsimmons
is a 9 maybe Jelly Roll Sebastian Sebastian's a nice guy a nice guy for a
busy guy he always tries to communicate and stay and stay tapped in but he's
also but he's only oh my god I want to get in trouble but I'll try I try to edit
my you know I got to edit my shit now, man, so I gotta think clear.
But I wanna say something.
I believe if you're in his visual range, right?
Somebody that he has a relationship with, right?
That he's a 10.
I think he's a 10.
But I don't think that if you're not in his visual range
or in his ecosystem, it's hard to get in.
Because he's so elusive.
He'll park his car, he'll do a set,
and there's no way of going,
yo, yo, yo, I'm a comic too, or whatever,
and developing a relationship.
I think the people he knows is who he knows,
and that fucking roster is filled. Yeah, that's what I think. I think at a certain point he knows is who he knows yeah, and there's and that fucking roster is filled
Yeah, that's what I think I think at a certain point you've done all of that
And it's like you only have so much bandwidth he have children yeah, you have a wife and parents, and I think it's just
Yeah, that's you know. I don't know if doing a lot of that fucking
Yeah, glad hand and shit yeah glad-handed and shit
It's not his shit, but you're good at it. Well, I feel desperate probably to be a people pleaser
No, because the truth is last night when I was with those two girls that I was your with
No, the other one was a stray
Well, whatever dude, she knew that I was gonna probably go say hi to you
Yeah, and she went to your show but it's funny that a stray went missing around an Asian.
Asian, yeah.
Be a limb.
Be a limb, though.
Yeah, yeah.
But, um, and I knew that I'm like, yeah, come meet Theo.
I don't have that thing like, oh, this could backfire.
Yeah.
You know?
Sometimes people are like that, where like a girl will go,
hey, can I a girl will go,
hey, can I, oh, okay, so my friend Alan met us.
I went to high school with him.
He was at the store maybe a month ago,
and he's never been to the store,
and he's like so like,
he's one of those high school friends
that is just so stoked for you.
You know what I mean?
And I love this guy.
And we're at the store and he sees Mark Maron
and he goes, can you introduce me?
And for a split second I was like, I don't know.
You know, I did it.
And Mark was also eating pizza,
which I've never seen him do.
I've never seen him eat anything.
I know.
You know what I'm saying? Yeah, me either.
So it's, yeah, it's scary to introduce.
But he was nice though.
He was, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
But you don't know, you know what I mean?
Well, Mark doesn't pretend a lot, I don't think, you know?
So I feel like, you know, you're gonna get the real Mark.
It's like Bill Burr.
You're gonna get who they are at that moment.
Okay, do you get scared around him?
When you walk up to him.
Bill?
Yeah. Bill Burr, I get like, and I feel bad, it's just me. Who they are at that moment? Okay? Do you get scared around him when you walk up to him bill? Yeah?
Bill burry I get that I get like and I feel bad. It's just me he came on the show last night, dude He jumped on the show. I know it was fucking awesome, dude
I stood on the side and I was like I need to go home and work right now
I did not want to tell a joke. He just he's he is I
Mean he is the best maybe I think he's's the best, but there's just something about,
like me and Andrew were doing Bad Friends.
He was upstairs, I guess, is an editing place,
and he was editing a special.
We didn't know that.
So we're just doing Bad Friends.
He just walks in.
We had no idea.
And it was almost as if I was tongue tied.
You know what I mean?
I mean, he's done Tiger Belly a bunch of times.
I've been to his house.
I'm friends with him.
I love the guy, right?
But every once in a while, I get tongue tied.
Like, I don't know what to say.
And I'm always like, he's one of those guys where it's like,
you let him talk.
Yes.
And then you go, yeah, man, that's cool.
Dude, that's how I was last night.
I was all embarrassed.
I was like, it was almost like a hot chick was there kind of I know
Yeah, he's a hot chick and you're like at the certain points. I couldn't even look at him
I just look at my other friend and we're both like supposed to be listening to him. Yeah, both looking at each other
Yeah, he just and he's also a super nice guy too, which is also rattled. I kind of wish he was a dick
Well, I think his material is so like him that yeah
There's like a something that's intimidating about him, but I don't think he I don't think he means it to be that way
No, I think his material is just it's in our head. It's in our heads. Oh totally. It's so funny He said that yeah, it's in our heads cuz he left and we're all like, oh, dude
I know cuz what like I was when I went back there. Yeah, the residual of him being there was still around
Yeah, people were like a bill was just here
Yeah, it was like I don't go fuck
It was like the Wizard of Oz when that storm hit people like windows back together
Yeah, maybe the wizard in our Asian wizard wizard
Anyway, um, I'm gonna tell you something that happened to me the day and what would you do in this situation?
But do you think it's cuz we're intimidated of his talent?
Sorry, I wanna go back to what you're saying.
And I'll get back to what you're saying,
I just wanna know.
No, no, no, it's good, we can just cut, that's fine.
Okay, they're just, I'm gonna tell you,
like we did with The Nicest, I'm gonna tell you
who just in my opinion when they're around,
it has the same vibe, okay?
So, Chappelle obviously, Chris Rock.
Like, Chris will go, what's up, man?
You know what I mean?
And I'm always like, okay, I like you!
You know, I get really tongue-tied with that dude.
You know, that dude, One Christmas Dude,
I don't know if I, have I told you about this?
That's his movie, One Christmas? Yeah, such a great movie.
Is it really?
No, man. One Christmas, dude.
I was on a date. I watched a movie with this girl.
You know, have you been to this Third Street Promenade?
Yes.
Right. So then, you know, I went to this date,
and I held her, I tried to hold her hand in the thing,
and she kind of scooted away.
I couldn't get no vibes from her.
And afterwards, the Brookstone, oh, not Brookstone, what's the, I tried to hold her hand in the thing and she kind of scooted away. I couldn't get no vibes from her.
And afterwards, the Brookstone,
oh not Brookstone, what's the bookstore?
Barnes and Noble.
Barnes and Noble.
All right, dude, all right, there's a better way to say that.
Her Borders Books, which Kamala Harris hasn't visited
the whole time she's been in office.
Yeah, Barnes and Noble, dude.
So you know how they had the magazine section?
So me and her wandered in the, it was just during Christmas.

Yeah, right and he comes out and he looks at the girl. I swear to God he goes
This guy right here one of the funniest in the business Wow
Hey, he goes Merry Christmas. He walks away. I hooked up with that girl that night.
Fuck yeah.
That was a layup.
But he's one of them.
You know who's another one?
For some reason, Sarah Silverman.
Very sweet.
She's so sweet.
But there is a little bit like,
I wanna watch what I wanna say.
I wanna, you know what I mean?
I'm a little self-aware of how I'm behaving.
Yeah.
You know?
But then there are people that I don't give a shit.
Like.
Like Santino.
I don't give a shit.
He's my friend.
I mean, that's what it is, real friend?
Bad friend.
Yeah, dog.
That's what he is.
Yeah.
And he's a BLM guy, he said.
Bobby Lee matters, he said.
Yeah, are you intimidated by Joe Rogan?
What, oh, I think maybe less and less over time.
He has such a good memory.
It's almost like, somehow like.
Dude, he is a computer chip.
He is.
People don't realize it, dude.
He knows everything.
He just has a really good memory.
Yeah.
What was I gonna ask you about?
Oh, dude, where were we?

Like boat Bobby, kinda like live bait Bobby, you know?
Well, you know, I've gone through some things.

Just scallop
Oh this must be
Would you call me piss scallop?
That's something that they said on
Somebody is this broken?
You're correct, yeah, maybe my ears. Yeah. yeah, my ears, dude. You didn't say that.
Let's change to something. Dude, where were you when Trump got shot?
Let's talk about something else. What do you mean, where were you when Trump got shot, man?
Who was I?
The president got shot.
I don't really remember where I was.
I was at home.
I was at home and you know when I wake up in the mornings I have a coffee
and I bust out my iPad and I just start like I just go to news.
I just want to see what's going on.
And then I remember just watching it going,
what a sad day for our country man.
What was he like?
Donald Trump?
Were you nervous?
He was, I mean he's kind of.
Were you nervous?
Yeah.
Like more nervous than you've ever been in your life?
Yeah.
Yeah, I would be too.
And then, I gotta know, when he walks in, right?
I mean, do you have things planned?
Yeah, I had some ideas, but I think I was super nervous
I'd had a long week and it was like
You ever have like a date you're excited for but you've had a craziest longest week and it finally Friday night comes or something
You're like, yeah, but it was yeah, that's what it was. And so it was like
You know, and so I just and I knew I had a limited amount of time
What was the time?
Probably 52 minutes we had.
52 minutes?
That's a long time though.
Yeah, but I know we can go fast and he can get on some, he gets on some tangents and he'll go.
So I didn't, I was like, you have to kind of curtail him a little bit, you know?
And so I tried to do that.
With the clips I've seen though, I think that you were pretty, you were good.
Thanks man. Yeah, you were good. I tried my best, you know? I thought it do that. With the clips I've seen though, I think that you were pretty, you were good. Thanks man.

Oh, that's cool.
Yeah.
There's a lot of Asians for Trump out there.
Do you know that?
How do Asians feel about Trump?
Let's say it, man.
Can I say something to you?
I'm not the president of Asians.
I seem to think that... you seem to think that I'm their leader.
Like every month there's a gathering, right?
And I get all this information from people.
Yeah.
And then I go out to the world, I'm their spokesperson or something.
I don't know what the fuck you're talking about You're like Kim Jong-un. No, I'm not Kim Jong-un. You're like a smaller version like scam Jong
You know, I think that Kim Jong-un and I come from the same
Body type
Like if they made a factory of like Asians
I'm the same mold as Kim Jong-un and Benedict Wong. Yeah, you know Benedict Wong. Um, I don't think so
You ever see dr. Strange? No

He just went more action with his body good for him Yeah, yeah, you have very like the Emperor that inherits the's like, you know, and he just went more action with his body.

When it comes to the economy probably you know I mean
Because what what is this one? This is a Trump country we live in the southeast
We drink sweet tea we don't think
Socialist cool it Wow Wow
So there are there there they're out there
Yeah, what it will like This is a sweet three country.

Yeah, the cool aid, socialist, all that shit was in there, dude.
What a great guy.
What percent of Asians are supporting Trump though, do you think?
Yeah.
Are you trying, let me ask you something.
With this line of questioning, are you trying to get what I, what my political affiliation is?
No.
Right? I ain't gonna tell you, dog.
Okay.
Yeah. And I have to say this, I'm in the middle. Yeah, what do you I am?
It's a good question, man
Because obviously there are things that I like, you know, I like both sides
Like a woman's right to do I don't give a fuck. I want them to have the right to it's not me
It has to do with me, right? I just think um I mean
I'm in I'm kind of I'm in the middle of one side kind of
What do you mean huh, so you're in the middle of one side yeah
Okay, I think I've always been I mean I love the fact that Trump brought over RFK jr.
Yeah, I'm still pissed at the Democrats railroaded Bernie Sanders
I like for me too. Yeah, it's like what is democracy even real in this country anymore?
Okay, I don't know okay. That's what I don't even know anymore. I don't even know if all of us are just being
Played that's what it starts to feel like you know I generally don't like talking about politics, but I'll say this
I'll say that one side, you know, is more supportive of what I do for a living
What do you do?
What do you do? Okay.
Comedy.
You mean, comedy.
You mean freedom of speech or whatever?
Yeah.
I think one side is a little more
sensitive than the other side
and so, you know,
I struggle with that fact.
Look man,
I've voted for Obama and I've voted for Trump.
So, I'm not a a I am open to anything
Yeah, I've never really voted
Really never for Obama one season you did one season. I did um what uh butter back to this you see here's what you did
I want to go back to the my remember the original question
I had yeah like from 15 minutes ago, and then you were like oh, I want to go back to that
And we never did oh about what I forgot being bisexual or whatever
No after that I
Would I didn't even explain it to you at something happened to me the other day I was yeah
Well, I was gonna tell I was gonna ask you like what would you do in that situation? Yeah, what was it?
So I was at a gas station mm-hmm right and I'm pumping gas and there's a guy like right in back of me pumping gas
You know, and he looks at me goes he goes yo, dude
Can I get a photo right and I do that day dude. I had went through it. I was beaten down
I was tired. I was in a really bad mood and I go
Yeah, okay. And he goes, ah, nevermind then.
Because I wasn't enthusiastic about the photo.
Right.
You know, what does one do in that situation?
I think you just gotta respect it
because I think it played out like it was supposed to.
But then I go, I'll take a photo.
He's like, nah, man.
No, he. No, you're the bad guy. No, I'm the bad guy. He's like, nah man. Now he, right?
Now you're the bad guy.
Now I'm the bad guy.
He said, I don't want a photo with you because,
you know what I mean, what he's basically trying to say is,
cause I wasn't like, yeah!
Let's take a photo!
You and me?
Forever!
You right?
He wanted that reaction.
When I gave him an organic, like yeah dude,
I didn't say this, but it's like,
I'm fucking tired
But I'll do it because I've never said no to anybody well
That's part of the problem yeah, and it's sometimes you have to like because yeah
I would be like that forever and now it started to set my own boundaries and I was like hey, man
I'm having a bad day. I don't feel like it. I'm at the gym
I'm just trying to work out or little things like that because
You also don't want to interrupt your train of thought sometimes your imagination or whatever because every time you like you know so
sometimes that can be a bit overbearing you killed it in sweet dreams oh in the
movie thanks killed it in that thanks dude yeah you're I wish they had more, I wanna say, sex in it.
Okay.
Maybe that's Sweet Dreams too.
Yeah.
Me and our characters.

Dude, did you see that pull up that,
there was one lady that covered the Trump thing.
I think this was an Asian lady.
Do you see the thing?
Covered the, that time that we interviewed Trump,
this is kind of self aggrandizing or whatever.
Oh, here we go.
But that's not even all.
Trump has wooed this hyper masculine online culture deeply.
During a recent podcast with the comedian Theo Won,
instead of talking about economy or immigration
or healthcare or the global conflicts,
they discussed cocaine addiction.
Trump.
No.
Cocaine.
Did you really?
What'd you ask him? Cocaine. Have you ever asked him if he did coke?
He doesn't do coke, right?
He's never done drugs.
He doesn't drink, doesn't smoke.
Don't drink, don't smoke.
Yeah.
Cocaine addiction.
What did you ask him though?
What's up with cocaine addiction?
We talked about addiction.
His brother died from addiction.
Oh wow.
So we talked, from alcoholism, I'm sorry.
So we talked about that, and then we talked about why he never drank or smoked.
He kind of led on that.
He thought, he's a drug addict.
He's a drug addict.
He's a drug addict.
He's a drug addict. He's a drug addict. He's a drug addict. He we talked, from alcoholism, I'm sorry. So we talked about that, and then we talked about
why he never drank or smoked.
He kinda led on that he thought
there could be some tendencies
that he could have the same thing his brother had,
so I think he didn't want, you know,
he had fear about that.
I can't, you know, I don't,
do you understand that or no?
What, your brother having something you have, you mean?
No, no, no, no.
Cause I've met, like, I remember like,
Dane Cook was like that.
Like I don't drink or do drugs.
Carlos Mencia for a while was like that too,
where it was like, yeah, I don't touch that stuff.
Like to me, it's like, I love it.
Yeah.
You love it?
Yeah, because I just, I think I don't,
over time, my natural state, I think,
wasn't my favorite throughout my life, probably, how I felt.
So if I could change that in some way,
then I wanna do that.
So those are the things you change it with,
either stuff like that, I think.
I just don't like feelings.
Yeah, wow, that's interesting.
I don't.
And I'm sober now, and I've been able to kind of,
what my therapist says is to kind of just
identify what you're feeling, right?
And feel it.
But I never liked them.
I never liked depression or sadness or trauma or anything.
It doesn't sit well in my body, you know what I mean?
So it's like I always consume things,
but that's more destructive,
and so that's why I'm sober.
And I feel pretty free now,
and I think I can handle most emotions.
Well, you've taken on a lot more social.
You've been a lot more social,
I think, in the past two years, it seems like.
So what do you mean?
Just like trying to stay busy, do more things, right?
Like actually put yourself out into situations and stuff.
Um, dude, I think I never, like you said, I didn't ever like having feelings.
I, like, no matter how I felt, I felt ashamed of how I felt.
That was weird, you know?
Yeah.
Like, it's a lot of times I wouldn't feel good, and I'm trying to, not getting a self-pity I'm just saying I'm not saying this I feel fine today
But sometimes I wouldn't feel good and then I would feel ashamed for not feeling good
That's the part that I didn't understand sometimes because that made it so hard to like
Figure out the first part, you know, does it make any sense or no? Yeah, it makes
like a lot of sense and it just struck me that
I don't wanna get too sentimental with you,
but there are times where I really believe this
that I feel concerned about you.
Really?
Yeah.
Because I don't know really what's going on.
You know, I feel like, you know,
there was a time where we talked more
and there was more communication.
But let's face it, you've risen a little bit.
I know you hate to, it's hard to hear.
It's hard to hear, it's hard to hear that you've risen,
but you have.
Things are so good for you, right?
And I think with that rise, right,
there's more of a disconnect with your friends
because you're so busy and you're doing other things,
I get it, but it's like I'm always concerned about
if you're sober, if like, is he going to meetings,
is he talking to people about Is he, you know what I mean, talking to people
about things that are going on.
I always feel like things are probably good with you,
but it's like, I have to admit that there is concern.
I don't know why, I mean, cause I love you.
No, I appreciate it.
I mean, I love you.
Love you too. You know that, right?
Yeah. Okay.
Yeah, I think, yeah, it's kind of been, I know this is a comedy podcast, I love you. Love you too. You know that, right? Yeah. Okay.
Yeah, I think, yeah, it's kind of been.
I know this is a comedy podcast, but it's like, you know,
I just have to say that because it's like,
because I've seen it.
I've seen people rise and then, you know, they get lost.
And then also there's people around them
that don't necessarily care
and they're just in it for the ride.
I don't know who you're surrounding yourself with
or whatever, you know what I mean? So, you know what I mean? You're probably healthy and the ride. I don't know who you're surrounding yourself with or whatever.
You know what I mean?
So you're probably healthy and doing well.
I don't know, but it's like, there is a concern that like,
maybe, you know what I mean?
It's alone when you get higher up.
There's more loneliness.
Yeah. Yeah.
I mean, how are you doing? I don't know.
I mean, I think podcasts,
it makes me feel pretty connected to people.
I think me not living here has been...
It's been good, but it's also been I don't get to see a lot of people as much.
I don't get to see a lot of my guys from AA.
I think, yeah, my sober program hasn't been that good the past month for sure.
And so I think, really, two months, like, probably the past month.
But just, yeah, not being able to, like, you know, it's like I'll work late, and so then I don't want to make the morning Zoom meeting or make month, but just, yeah, not being able to like, you know, it's like,
I'll work late and so then I don't want to make
the morning Zoom meeting or make the, you know,
and then I'll get up late and then it's like,
I try to go to the gym, then I'll miss the noon
in-person meeting, so just, yeah,
I gotta touch base with some people and...
Dude, I was in Butte.
Get honest and get tight, yeah.
I was in Butte for a month, Montana.
For a month, for doing what? I did a movie. And like, Butte for a month Montana for a month for doing what I did
a movie and they're like but there's nothing to do and one day I was in my
hotel room there's nothing to do and I called one of the guys that lives there
and I go can you give me an A schedule and I tracked a couple of times all
the way this like in the boonies oh yeah and I walk into the school and like
there's old white people with oxygen tanks and like, you know what I mean?
And obviously they've never.
Drug mules.
Yeah, drug mules.
Yeah, and also they've never seen an Asian
walk into an AA meeting there.
I never saw one black person in Butte.
So when I walked in it was just like,
Charlie, you know what I mean?
They get Vietnam flashbacks, you know what I mean?
Get down, get down, you know what I mean? I don't know, I'm in AAbacks, you know what I mean? You're like, get down, get down, you know what I mean?
You know what I mean?
You know, no, I'm in AA too, you know what I mean?
And when I'm sitting there, right,
even though like, you know,
we don't have the same lifestyles of these people, right,
you know, at least I can say to myself, like,
you know, I'm trying, you know,
I'm trying to like take care of myself on a daily basis.
And, dude, one fucking, I went to a meeting and trying to like take care of myself on a daily basis.
Dude, one fucking, I went to a meeting and, you know, because there's only two Uber drivers in Butte,
and this guy came, this guy that's sitting next to me goes,
hey man, my name is Derek.
And I go, thank you, and he goes, I'm a fan.
And I go, he goes, you want to ride home?
A fan, you mean?
Yeah.
What do you mean?
Like a Asian?
No, not like that fan.
Oh, okay.
It was a fan.
It was a dad fan.
I didn't know.
It was just like a fan of, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Of mine and my comedy.
Yeah, yeah.
And then so I get in the car with his wife
and we go the opposite direction of the hotel.
They wanna watch you fucking throw that little liabolin.
Long strokes?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And so then I go, hey, my hotel's that way.
And we know, man.
Where are we going?
You're going to our house.
Wow.
Right?
So I go to this house and they want me to meet their kids.
Nuh-uh.
Yeah.
How old were the kids?
I don't know, but they were little white kids.
Oh, too young.
So they came up, I was in the,

Oh, yeah, dude, huh?
And then there's just like white kids

What I'm saying is I'm willing to go to like these links I say to like just whatever you know
I mean, yeah, and there's so you they're super sweet. Yeah, I didn't think I was gonna get like
Imagine if I was in a well in the basement.
Yeah. Right?
And you're like, what would you have thrown down?
You get two things thrown into the well.
Oh shit.
Oh shit, yeah, oh, so I would lube.
No, no, no, that's not good.

Two things that water.

And then food.

I've been hearing there's a lot of drugs
in the Asian community, a lot of Trank or whatever.
I've been hearing there's like a lot of,
I've been hearing that Trank is the big thing
in the Asian community.
Is that true? Like chanx for trank or whatever?
It's like, just hear me out. It's like if I said to you, man, I heard there's a lot of shoelaces in the white community.
Yeah. Does that make any sense to you?
Like why would, like honestly, man, I heard there's a lot of fucking
glitter in the black community. I mean, it doesn't make whatever you're saying

Google agents and drugs Asians for trunk
Dear reports widespread wait wait. It's purple. So you've looked it up before
Why would you look that up already these guys for some of these guys live here all night
Why would you look that up already? Some of these guys live here all night.
The DEA reports widespread threat of fentanyl mixed with xylazine.
That's trank daddy.
Where does it say Asians on that?
Well let's see, it's going to get there.
Xylazine is making the deadliest drug threat our country has ever faced.
Fentanyl even deadlier, said Administrator Milgram of the DEA.
The DEA has seen xylazine and fentanyl mixed in 48 of 50 states.
The system is reporting that in 2022 approximately 23% of fentanyl powder and
7% of fentanyl pills seized by the DEA contain xylazine.
Okay, I know where the Asian comes from. Can I tell you where are?
Yeah.
This is what you read. Xylazine is making the deadliest drug threat our country has ever faced.
Fentanyl, even deadlier. Said administration, Milgram.
And it says right here, no, up there.
It says also known as Trank.
You think that's an Asian word?
Trank.
It's not.
But Trank is obviously an Asian name.
Yeah, I know, but you can't.
You know what I'm talking about?
I know what you're talking about,
but I'm just saying that's not what it's referring to. I think it's referring to tranquilizer. Oh? I know what you're talking about! But I'm just saying, that's not what it's referring to.
I think it's referring to tranquilizer.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. So what I'm saying is it's like, you know what I mean?
Tranquilizer. Yeah.
Yeah, I thought it was like, um,
Trank seems like a, like a
Vietnamese or Korean nickname.
You agree?
Trank. Trunk?
I just...

I swear to God, I think still hates me because of that.
Wow.
I'll tell you why.
For doing Vicodin?
No, because I used to have a bowl of Vicodin
in my fucking dressing room at MADtv.
And The Strokes played one night Oh, wow, right? Yeah, and I guess the drummer was dating drew Barrymore, right?
He was trying to get sober or something like that, but they all ended up going into my room and eating all my pills
Yeah, you know cuz I'm generous. Yeah, fuck it. Go get it right and then I heard that she
Was mad at me
Because you had it's not your fault. That's true. It's not your fault that you had them I'm like, go get it, right? And then I heard that she was mad at me.
Because you had, it's not your fault. That's true.
It's not your fault that you had them.
I know, that's true.
We can't, you know, it's weird to blame the dealer
unless the dealer was like pushing them on you.
Were you pushing them on them?
Yeah.
I was.
Dude, I'm sorry if I'm being rude.
I feel now, am I being like?
Dude, what are you talking about, dude?

Oh, that's you?
Yeah, I'm listening.
If I'm really mad, well, you know, because you? Yeah, I'm listening.
You if I'm really mad well, you know because you didn't give me your number for a long time Yeah, but you know that when I have a resentment. I didn't know it also. Yeah, you did fuck off. All right
Yeah, fuck you dude. I'm you're right. Yeah. Yeah
If I was mad at you, I'm very comfortable of going,
listen, I have an issue. Have you ever had an issue with me, be honest.
Have you ever had a resentment toward me,
like I wish he didn't do that or?
No, sometimes I feel like it's a little tough
to try and get to know you kind of,
but I think it's tough to try and get to know comedians.
You know?
Yeah, but that being said, I mean I'm a comedian, right?
It's hard to know any comedian.
And I think everybody loves you so much that it's like you want that guy to know, you want to know that guy better.
I think, you know?
Dude, I, I, I, I,
Out of all the comics I know,
I feel like I'm closest,
you're one of the closest ones to me.
And if that, I mean, I'm trying my best.
You know what I mean? I like you. And if that, I mean, I'm trying my best. You know what I mean?
I like you, I like Bert, I like Whitney,
I love Andrew, you know what I mean?
Tom, some, Segura, you know what I mean?
But it's like, you know, I try, dude.
And you're busy.

with what we have.
And what's going on, you know?

Okay.

That's a real...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Is that one of those guns that starts a race?
Yeah.
Ready, set, go!
The burglars just run off
when you fire it.
That's a plastic BB kind of a gun.
What's the other one?
And that looks like a gun.
That was on a TV show.
Look at that acting.
That's Miami Vice, huh?
No, it was Magnum.
On what?
Have you been dating a lot or not?
Alright, let's- you wanna get into it?
Yeah, cause it seems like a lot of stories you tell have had dating in them.
I'm trying to- okay.
Um, I'm trying to find, um, the love of my life.
Are you really?
I think I'm ready.
Okay, bub.
You look like Stevie right now.
How are you doing?
No, I, listen, I'm,
I like some of the girls that I'm dating now,
but they're kind of flaky.
Like, you know, I won't call it on a Thursday
Because I know because I've said like let's go to dinner and hang out, right?
And so then Thursday will come around like nah, I don't want to do it now where I'm busy. Like bitch, I sacrificed
Stage time. You know how valuable stage time is?
You know what I mean? It's like that kind of shit.
And then it's like, yeah, I just,
and also, do I fully trust them?
You know what I mean?
I think so, man.
No, I want to be able to find somebody
that I fully can confide in and go,
this is how I feel, you know what I mean?
And I want somebody to also give me suggestions
or like feedback that I kind of honor and respect
and go, oh yeah, that's a good angle, you know what I mean?
It's just like, but then also I want somebody hot, right?
So to find that combination, you know what I mean?
We want somebody you're attracted to.
Yeah, somebody I'm attracted to.
Like what I find attractive isn't necessarily what you think, I think so though. I think you and I like the Yeah, somebody I'm attracted to. Like, what I find attractive isn't necessarily
what you think, and I think so, though.
I think you and I like the same, maybe.
I don't know.
You don't?
No, I never.
The couple of girls I've seen you with over the years
are people, I mean, are people that I would be like,
I mean, there's this one girl that you used to see
that I just thought you should marry, but.
Yeah.
I remember.
that you used to see that I just thought you should marry but yeah
Good I just saw regret there. I guess I regret there did yeah, yeah, yeah, it's couldn't get it But that's the thing I think that you and I have the same kind of issues. I think we have intimacy issues
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, and I think that um it's hard for us to get really vulnerable
I mean I had that with Kailila for 10 years,
but she was the first one in many, many years
that I could do that with.
There's just something about her that I was able to,
we were able to do that, right?
But it's like-
But did the intimacy freeze up after a while?
It was hard to be like, sensual or whatever?
The truth is, I think that, God. I, you know, the truth is, is I think that,
oh God, I can't fucking,
I think it's this.
You want me to say fuck it or not?
No, no, no, no, no.
Okay, I want to say that.
Don't say that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But what I want to say is,
the problem with us, because number one,
we go up on stage, right?
And what's more exciting than that?
The business inherently is super exciting,
and there's dopamine hits.
Right, I'm gonna get a lot of feeling from right there.
Right, and so then also, you and I are also
recovering drug addicts, so we like excitement, right?
And we don't like the same old thing, right?
So there is something about meeting somebody new, right?
Right, it's almost like you get that, yeah,
you get that forgetful syndrome.
It's like you, yeah. Right.
But at the end of the day,
and I've never said this out loud before,
and I think I fucked it up with Kalyla.
And I think that I wish I would have done it over again.
Because I would have changed some things, right?
At this point it's too late, you know what I mean?
We both have moved on.
But there's a lot of regret there.
And I swear to God, dude,
I will, the next girl I meet that, you know,
and there's a couple of girls that have potential
I'll be honest with you right now. Mm-hmm, but I the next thing I'm gonna do it differently number one
I'm gonna get rid of all my machines
Wow, really?
Yep, I have a vacuum cleaner
And what is that like a sex thing or something?
Or you mean an actual carpet cleaner?
No, dude, I showed up at Bad Friends one day
and somebody had sent me something that, I swear to God,
is the size of a vacuum cleaner, right?
It was like this big with all these tubes and stuff.
It was a sex toy.
No. Yeah.
Of course, I took it home. And you used it? I plugged it in. Oh, dude, I have so many of toy. No. Yeah. Of course I took it home.
And you used it?
I plugged it in.
Oh dude, I have so many of them.
I have so many of them.
And I stick it in.
I do do do do do do.
Vroom.
And what does it play?
It just Beethoven's here or whatever?
Yeah.
Da da da da.
Da da da da.
Yeah, yeah.
It's a, and vroom, right?
And you do do do.
Oh. Huh. Huh. What? What? Do do do. Yeah, yeah, it's a right
Put it on Christmas
I swear to God these new machines dude. It sucks you in dude. They never let go dude. I'm 80 days off pornography right now.
Wow, I'm gonna give you a machine man.
No.
Please.
I don't want anything like that.
I know but you gotta try it.
What does it do?
It does three things.
Okay.
Okay.
Not just one thing dude.
Okay.
Alright.
Is it gas powered or you plug it in?
No it's not gas.
The vacuum cleaner I will probably not use again because I almost, I had to grab parts of my penis inside the fucking little filter
They're right, but it took stuff out. So it was too powerful. Okay, but I want to say this. Okay, I
Have one that I bought at the hustler store. Yeah, right
And it is three things
And that was really just two things so it vibrates
and sucks.
Wow. Right?
And so, you know what I mean?
Does it sort coins?
I think it might.
Hell yeah.
Yeah, I think it might, yeah, yeah.
How long do you have to stay on it for eight seconds?
No, what I do is I, it's also waterproof.
That's a key.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But, so, yeah, I know, so the next relationship I met,
that's what you do?
It makes me just.
No daddy, no.
What?
Stop, don't touch me there daddy.
Who's daddy?
Yeah.
It hurts but it feels good too daddy.
Daddy sound like a man dude.
What?
Daddy sounds like a man.
Yeah dude, yeah. It better be a man, bro. Yeah, dude, yeah.
That better be a chick named Daddy.
Yeah, don't do...
Do you miss your dad?
Huh? Yeah, I miss my dad, dude.
When did he die? What year did he die?
Bring up a picture of my dad.
He died in 1996.
Do you miss him though, yeah, yeah, I didn't I don't know
Cuz I didn't like yeah, I miss him. I just wish that I knew him better, you know, do you miss your dad?
Yeah, that's dude. You just hit it on the fucking nail on the coffin
Was that the wrong way to say it?
You hit the nail.
Here's the thing, I don't know nothing about him.
Really?
Yeah, because my dad didn't speak English, right?
And I barely spoke Korean.
So everything was like, for instance,
you know, like when you're in high school, for instance,
and you're going, let's say I was a white kid, I was going out, and your dad gives you like a little pep talk, like you know, don't you're in high school, for instance, and you're going, let's say I was a white kid,
I was going out, and your dad gives you like a little pep talk,
like, you know, don't drink and drive, right?
Also, you know, if you're in trouble, give me a call,
or whatever, whatever they say, you know what I mean?
But my dad didn't do that, he would just go,
I go, goodbye dad, he'd go, don't do.
And I'd go, okay, I won't do.
I mean, that's it, That's the, that's it.
If I asked my dad, tell me about how you feel.
I don't know it.
You're good, but they don't like.
And you're like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Yeah, what's your favorite pasta?
Oh, I like, you know, it's very good.
You know, like he does, there's, dude.
So everything.
Bro, bro, bro.
He never, bro, he didn, there's, dude. Bro, bro, bro. He never, bro.
He didn't know what music was.
He didn't know what music was.
Right?
So when he, he had a stroke, right?
Oh gosh, I didn't know that.
I knew your dad passed away, I didn't know he had a stroke.
Yeah, he had many strokes.
So he had two major strokes and a couple of mini ones.
Different strokes, you ever seen that show?
Yeah, I love it, dude.
Yeah, he had two Willis's.
What you talking about, Willis?
You know what I mean?
Anyway, great show.
Oh yeah, and one Mr. Drummond.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's the one that really shook him.
So what was I, oh, what I was saying.
Oh, so he had a bunch of strokes and I had AirPods, and I was at his house in Phoenix.
And I go,
Dad, he's like, oh, you know, he goes, yeah.
I go, will you listen to music for the first time?
I mean, obviously he's been to a mall,
and he's heard it, right?
But he doesn't know, he doesn't have a fanfare band,
or he doesn't know what Beethoven is or whatever.
And so I put in Eric Clapton's, what's it?
Tears in Heaven.
Tears in Heaven.
I put it in, my Steve was there too, my brother,
and we've pushed play,
and tears came down my dad's face.
No way.
Right?
It was the first time he goes,
Dad, beautiful.
Wow.
It was incredible.
And then he died.
Damn.
Yeah.
So he didn't, I didn't learn anything from the dude.
And it's-
But were you ashamed of him, it feels like?
You were embarrassed by him for some reason?
I hated him.
And you know, I've told this story before,
but not on this, I don't think.
When I was, I've told this a couple of times.
You mind if I tell the story?
Yeah, no, I haven't heard it.
Yeah, I don't know it.
You know, who do I live with?
Your friends.
Noah.
I have cats. Oh yeah. I have three cats. Yeah, I think you have, I have cats.
Oh yeah, I have three cats.
Yeah, I think you have a couple of cats.
Yeah, and so when I was a kid I loved them.
Something about them, the cats.
Just cats in general.
And when I was eight I go,
could I get a cat?
And they got me a cat, a kitten.
I named him Tommy.
And they wouldn't put him in the house.
We put him in the garage,
we had like a little fence thing in the garage.
That's fair.
Yeah, good compromise.
And then over the summer, every day,
I just sat with Tommy, eight hours a day, however long.
He was the love of my life.
And then one day, a couple of months later,
three months later, I go
to the garage. He's completely gone. So I go, Mom, Dad. And they came in the garage.
I go, where's Tom? And my dad goes, Mommy, she allergic. And I go, uh-huh. He said, Tom
gone. And he goes, stop crying. And then he just left the garage.
There was like no room for compromise or anything,
like whatever he, that's why I hate authority figures.
Right?
There was no room for discussion.
I didn't know where Tom went.
Stop crying, shut the fuck up, and that's it.
And that was the day where I looked at my parents
and I went
Okay, it's war
It's war I started doing drugs
Yeah, you know me and raising hell raising hell lighting things on fire. I'm gonna go embarrassed that family. Yeah, and it's like
That's why if I I mean if I had a kid, I mean, how would you approach that? I was a kid, your wife is allergic to the fucking cat,
and I'm your kid, be real.
Don't do comedy, don't do comedy right now.
I would probably get a shank.
So I'm your dad, I'm your son.
Hey, Dan.
Love me.
No, no, you don't have to.
Do it, sorry, just do it like me.
No, no, no, wait, wait, wait.

Wait, wait, wait, can we cut this part out?
How's it going?
This podcast?
I have no idea.
It's very funny. Where'd it all happen? No, honestly, how is it going? I feel like I've been the worst I've ever been on the show. No, I swear to God
this is this is awesome. It's been fun, man. Do you ever get that though? Because dude, you understand
Monday I did two hours of Burt, then I did probably three fucking Tiger Bellies, which is like over an hour apiece.
You talk so much. You just fucking don't know at one point.
Dude, you and I have talked, think about it,
thousands of hours of nonsense.
Yeah.
Fucking nonsense.
Crazy, huh?
Yeah.
And there's times where I'm sorry,
you just kinda go, I don't even know
what else to say anymore.
Yeah. You know what I to say anymore. Yeah.
You know what I mean?
That's why we gotta have experiences in the world
so we can have more stuff to talk about,
or we have to talk about people that we can learn stuff from
that have had experiences.
And George, George is here, my producer,
from Time to Bell, right?
He's okay.
And so George, he's changed a lot.
Oh, too, so much.
But George, dude, it's like, I've talked so much,
you trying to bleed me dry?
No, you're doing great, this is the best ever.
Now that sounds like, condescending dude.
Yeah, it sounds like something, somebody,
he's the only guy that killed Elvis,
remember his manager or whatever?
Snow Cone or whatever that dude's name was?
What was his name?
Wait, his name was Snow Cone?
Yeah.
You mean Tom Hanks' character?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Would you fuck Austin?
He's like, you're doing great. Would you fuck Austin Butler What if I'm Austin Butler? No, I'd fuck Elvis probably
Would you have fucked Elvis? I?
Don't know would you have Cleopatra?
Who was that in the history of she was the Egypt Queen? Oh, yeah, but it's hard to know what you really look like. Yeah, that's true
But if you're gonna travel all the way back in time, you gotta smash, you feel me?
I think you'd have an easier time smashing than me.
What about Frederick Douglass?
The black guy?
Smash or pass?
Smash, smash for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Although he is probably, oh, look at him.
Do you think he has a gapy butthole or no?
Huh?

Yeah, I'm just saying. That's insane. That's insane what you just said there.
They're going to hell.
I did hear that he was gay, but I don't know that.
They should bring that hairstyle back.
A lot of my black friends are saying that he enjoyed the pleasure as a man.
Dude, that hairstyle has to come back.

Yeah, there it is, it's a conk hairstyle.
A conk is a hairstyle that was worn
by some African American men
between 1940s and early 1960s
The name comes from the congo lean a live bass gel used to chemically straighten or relax hair
Once straightened people styled their hair into pompadour's or wore it slick back
