yes. My legs.
Your cheeks.
Hey, who has a white rice cologne?
I do. Oh, can you try it? Can we try it?
It's in the car. Okay.
Can we get it? No, it's okay. Let's start.
I've already started with brownface, brownface, forever blind,
I don't fit the right phrase. Nevermind.
What does this mean? I like that poem what straight as a high school?
Yeah, what'd you say straight as a whistle?
Hickory do Cleanness of arrow arrow man
cometh
Timothy the third of Chamalyn.
Chamalyn.
Chamalyn.
Let me ask you something.
You knew Bob Dylan?
Bob Dylan?
Yeah.
Who is he?
He's like from the 70s or 80s.
What does he do?
He does music.
You know what?
You're in with me now.
Congratulations.
Brown face, brown face.
Forever blind.
Never mind.
Never mind.
Anyway, what's going on?
What's going on? I have anyway um what's going on I have no idea
what's going on but um you know I told you about um I was captured in Montana
oh yeah let's talk about that though we talk about my Montana experience or no
please yeah okay so I was in Butte, Montana for three weeks shooting a movie.
And it's, there's nothing happening at any given moment,
which is exciting in itself. One day I came downstairs, I was staying at the Finland,
and there was all these people in like black suits,
and there was a coffin at the hotel, in the lobby.
They go, what's going on around here?
And they go, oh, we're having a funeral.
I go, in a hotel lobby?
They go, yeah.
Have you ever been to a hotel lobby and there's a funeral?
Nope.
Hotel lobby, no, but like I recently went to a memorial
that they call like a major raja.
And it was like the funnest coolest thing and that's
how I want to be celebrated after I died. What's a major rager? It's like it was basically like a
full-blown fun party with like music, a live band and it was just so cool. I was like oh I don't want
people like that miserable when I die like do that like rage out. Oh you want
to have a rager? Rager. I want a solemn one. I know you want to be... Cathedral. You want to
know that people are like devastated that I'm gone. Yeah. Oh I see like a Harvey
Dent situation in Dark Knight. What do you mean? All the cops, everyone wearing
suit, taking your pet. Procession. Procession in a giant church. That's exactly what I'm saying right now to you.
That's what I feel is lacking in America,
maybe because of like, CHP or something.
But there are no processions here.
Is that like illegal to do?
When you follow like the hearse, right?
The hearse will like drive away and then there are people
weeping, like walking slowly behind the hearse,
like crying.
Yeah.
That's what I want with Godfather music.
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum, bum.
Some guy in a fucking tuba, bum, bum, right?
And people, like, ladies, perfectly some black.
You know what I mean?
You know you can hire them.
I'm going to hire some black ladies,
because they're great at weeping. Oh
Amazing Right amazing. They're like Filipino. They're the greatest at weeping black women really at funerals. They go it's not weeping
It's wailing. They do the whale. Yeah, but I feel like you can just I need cartwheels
You know
You could just hire some actors
Like to really throw their body on the ground.
Yeah, of course I'm gonna hire. I don't know any black ladies.
Because I think you need someone to throw their body onto your casket as it descends into the earth.
Yeah.
So, Kaleela, you want something like this?
Where people are celebrating?
Yes, happy vibes. Yeah, this is what I want. You're dancing.
That's exactly what I want. Anyway, let's not talk about death anymore.
But it's fun.
Let's talk about Butte.
I think if you weren't dead, you were just dead.
This is so fun to me.
God, that's dangerous though.
For who? The dead person?
Yeah.
You know what I...
Whoa.
Whoa, that's amazing.
Because there was just a story two weeks ago where a woman went to the funeral home.
She died at hospice and then they were doing the embalming.
And right before they punctured any holes, she was alive.
Oh no.
Yeah.
Is she fully back awake now?
I think she's awake now.
Or did she just have a moment of like, you know?
No, she's alive and they had to bring her back to the hospice.
What?
In America.
Is she lucid again?
She could be back at the funeral, I don't know.
She died again.
But I just know that, you know what I mean?
Let's say at that point it's like just embalm.
Wait, okay, so you're the embalmer, okay?
Yeah, just embalm.
I'm paying you thousands and thousands of dollars
to make my family member look pretty decent for the wake.
Okay.
And then you all of a sudden hear this voice no no
you hear this voice like you're doing your little stuff on the side and you
know where I go where and I would go and answer where are you who are you who am
I God and you're in heaven and then I would kill him. You're lying.
Yeah, so not really lying because you will immediately, you know.
So you would just drain the blood right there.
Yeah. I was watching 600 lb Life there today.
Oh my God.
Oh, were you thinking of that?
I was thinking about you, yeah.
And then at the end of the episode they said that the person had died.
600 lbs.
But my question is though, they said that the person had died. 600 pounds. Yeah, well, either.
But my question is though, can I finish the question?
Is if you die 600 pounds, are you in heaven 600 pounds?
Imagine going to heaven and you start falling.
I think.
Ah!
You know what I mean?
You start barreling toward Earth, back to Earth.
Wait, see the.
You mean spirit or? Yeah, because the spirit is weightless, I think. No, I to Earth. Wait, see the- You mean, come to Spirit or?
Yeah, because Spirit is weightless, I think.
No, I think it's, you're in the sky.
Oh, you're just sitting on a cloud,
waiting to crash on someone?
I'm lifting you up, and then he's like,
oh, my back!
And you just start falling down to hell because of that?
Yeah, yeah.
I have a question for you, George,
because it seemed like you believed in heaven
once upon a time.
What is the idea?
Like, did it ever, were you ever,
was it ever explained to
you like what happened there? How old we are when we're in heaven? Let's see I
think you're your best self basically. You're renewed. Your body's all fresh and
new again. At what age? Like who determines that? I think you do. Yeah. What
age Bobby would you be? Would you like to exist in heaven So you're a hot 25 year old Long Beach Kailila.
25 was not my peak.
What do you mean, exist in heaven?
Yeah, like what age would you like to be?
I think you get to choose, no?
If you do get to choose, what are you choosing?
I would choose
one.
Oh, baby.
A baby.
That's smart.
How could you even enjoy anything in heaven?
Well, I still have my mind.
Oh, but you're just rolling around,
like you don't have your mobility.
Yeah, but I can crawl.
I have wings too.
Don't you get wings in heaven?
You're gonna be last in line to the heaven buffet.
I'll be cute, I'll be cupid.
Oh, with wings.
I have wings flying around,
but I'm with my boys.
What's up, dog?
You know what I mean?
What's up, it's BobbieD.
You know, with my arrow.
Ah, Chico King, there's no fucking arrow. You know what I mean? And I'd, it's BobbieD. You know with my arrow? Ah, Chico King, there's no fucking arrow.
You know what I mean?
And I'd just be flying around.
Who doesn't matter?
There's no fucking in heaven, is there?
I don't know.
What is, George?
It's your best self, so you can import it.
Yeah, why not?
Is there pleasure in heaven?
Of course.
God gave you pleasure, why not?
My real question is people who get married again,
who do they shack up with in heaven?
Interesting. Well, we know know I'll be 21 in
heaven oh that oh that's interesting is there jealousy in heaven no there's no
jealousy perfect but because it's perfect so it's all like polyamorous and
shit I don't think so so I could have to have sex with your wife in heaven no
dude that's a wild sentence to say you both of you can I have your wives in
heaven no you said I didn't say polyamorous I only said if you No. Dude, that's a wild sentence to say. Both of you, can I have your wives in heaven? No. You said...
I didn't say polyamorous.
Anything goes.
I didn't say polyamorous.
I only said, if you get married multiple times, like say,
say you're...
Three...
You're sitting around there with passes,
so you're allowed to get married again.
Which one do you get in heaven?
Is it the original?
Or does it yet...
It's too convoluted and too confusing what you're saying.
Yeah.
Who would you want to check up with in heaven if you have everybody?
Right. I'm gonna have their wives
That said this is like blowing my mind. Why in heaven not on earth? That's illegal and that's not that's wrong
Yeah, but that's kind of in heaven and then goes no it makes it makes it seem like you wanted you want it. Yeah
No, no, that's not what it is. I want to have sex with everybody you would have sex with everyone You wanted them since the beginning. Yeah. Like on Earth you've been denying them.
No, no, no. That's not what it is. I wouldn't have sex with everybody.
You would have sex with everyone.
Yeah. Alex's mom. Your mom.
That's fine.
In heaven you'll be fine.
You're fine with that, Heim?
I hope my sexuality is not even a thing.
No.
That'd be weird. I just want to fly around as a little baby Cupid.
What if on this earth, Bobby was dating your mom?
That'd be cool.
I'd be like, my mom dates Bobby Lee.
There you go.
Really?
How many people can say that?
Exactly.
Just one person, me.
God, you're super bright.
What a bright one you are.
I want to ask you some questions, things that you know.
Oh, great.

Here's another thing I'm really angry about.
I thought she did a great job and I honestly do.
I honestly believe that was the best break dance I've ever seen from Ray Gun. Hmm, Ray Gun, we're still on
Ray Gun. Yeah, I really liked her. She was so good. But you know the truth. It's so
interesting her moves. I know but you know what the the dark stuff behind it
right? Is that her and her husband were like they had to create a committee.
There was no committee. There was no committee that would then choose the representatives of
Australia and whose fault is that so she created the community whose fault is that my friend?
Australia exactly yeah, and she's like you know what there's a little opening here
I can get in she got in but so you're saying that
Pick a sport like pickleball you picked it up right? And
you're like there's no pickleball community. Give me a different sport. I don't know what
pickleball is. What's something that you... Give me a different sport. Tennis. That's
already there. Oh it's already established. Disgolf. Bowling. Something that you... Oh
no how about the frisbee bowl. Disgolf.'s disc golf. Yeah. Thank you. Sorry. Okay disc golf
Yeah, yeah, and so let's suppose there's no committee and Olympics is like, you know
we're taking on ten new experimental sports for Los Angeles Olympics right and
We need a representative from America. I sign up for this comp. No, no, no, you don't sign up for it
We don't have a committee to chew and I can we get a committee
Okay
Yeah No, no, no, you don't sign up for it. We don't have a committee to choose. You and I can be, we get a committee. Okay.
And then we find out that George and all of these athletes come out and they're
like, we've been playing disc golf for like 15 years.
We're pros.
And I'd say it's too bad.
We signed up first.
Yes.
Essentially.
Yeah.
That's not my, our fault.
And then how are we, are we not worried that we're going to like the way we're
going to perform?
You know how huge do we, would we get so viral?
I throw him back at me.
It goes, if I can hit somebody in the back.
I mean, it'd be incredible.
You know what I mean?
It'd be more.
I throw a Chinese star for some reason.
Yeah, I mean, she is like she did make Australia do it.
I like all the clips.
These moves to that move, right?
That move, dude.
Oh, that move. Come on, guy.
Of course, the Filipino makes it.
Yeah. Yeah. So many people made it.
Do what if stand up was an Olympic sport, a test for LA
2028?
I don't know how you would grade it, but.
There's no way to grade comedy.
I mean, there's no way to grade this.
I can tell you my Olympic team.
It's all art.
I'll tell you my LA Olympic team.
Yeah.
Comedy?
I'm not going to be included.
US.
Oh, just US?
That's the Olympics.
OK, so what are the categories?
OK, let's go alt.
OK, alt.
Let's go, um, wait.
Club, black comic club.
Yeah, urban, urban room.
Yeah, yeah.
Asian.
Now, I don't think Asian should be the category.
No.
Yeah.
Let's go here. Let's go 60 and above.
60 years old and above?
You got Argus.
The masters of it.
Master class.
Let's start with 60 and above then.
Is there men and women?
Yeah, of course.
I would put Ron White in the 60 and above.
I would put Ray Romano in the 60 above.
Good choice.
Eddie Pepitone.
Eddie Pepitone, yeah, for sure, for the alt division.
Is there different divisions in the old?
What about, who else?
But there's some people that you don't even,
or you're imprvied to or aware of.
I would put in-
What about like Judy Gold?
How old is she? Yeah, she could be in that female division. Yeah. Yeah
David what Larry David or
No, he's just
He's not a comic
Okay
Thought he was funny. Yes, Larry David. Okay
Thank you
Thank you so much, man. You're welcome.
You know what I realized is that even this whole Olympic comedy thing wasn't even working.
And I wanted to bail out from the beginning. But when you throw out Larry David, dude,
I was like, let's stay in it. He's back in. We're back in. Okay. Let's go back to your talent
intelligence. Okay. Because you got the Civil War right.
Okay?
Explain to me what happened with the Vietnam War.
What was that all about?
You tell me.
No, just try to make it up.
Okay.
From what you actually know, what do you think?
Good morning.
Yeah, good.
Good morning what?
I can't say it.
Good morning Vietnam, go ahead.
I can't say the V word.
Why?
What? I can't pronounce it right. No, just say it. Okay, what is it? Say it one good morning, Vietnam. Go ahead. I can't say the V word. Why what I can't pronounce it, right?
No, just say it. Okay. What does it say one time yet? Yet? Yet? No, no good morning. You mean it

Very good.
All right, so tell me about the Vietnam War.
People, you know,

Yeah, who was bombed?
Who did the fight?
Exactly.
Just me.
Listen.
I'm trying to say.
No, no, listen, Jaime, check it out, right?
In improv, right?
You don't have to know anything about a subject.
Just say facts as if they're facts confidently.
And that's all I care about.
Commit to the bit.
You commit to the bit.
All right.
So let's start over, okay?
So we're in a history class, right?

Okay, don't forget about that
And the Germans
The Germans wanted oil and water
and the Vietnam
Don't forget this, it's going to be on the test
The oil icon again
The oil icon again
But water?
The Germans were running low on water
Like Mad Max
This is like the Mad Max
Timmy shut the fuck up Timmy

Hiccola

He's a wise man. He's a funny mustache just saying he have a funny mustache just saying? He has a goatee. Goatee, okay, okay.
Not the same guy.
And he put in a little accent, a little Spanish accent.
Okay.
Hey fool, hey.
Oops.
Well, I think we sound that speech.
So do the speech again.
Hey fool, hey what?
Hey fool, hey.
Hey fool, hey.
Because we sound, go ahead.
Hey fool, hey. Oh, that, hey. Hey fool, hey. Because we said, go ahead. Hey fool, hey.
Oh, that's it. A reverse Hitler. Yeah. That's great. Hi Hitler. Hitler. So how do,
can we ask questions now? Yeah, go ahead. Timmy, Timmy, Timmy, do you have an ant question? Yeah.
Yeah, go ahead. Ask. Was it Raul Raul? Ramos Ramos. I'm sorry, Ramos Ramos.
was it Raul Raul? Ramos Ramos. I'm sorry Ramos Ramos. Were the Americans involved with the Vietnam War? No the Americans knew better to stay away. They
stayed away. Exactly. So my great uncle died for no reason. He just showed up. He was just out there. Vacationing.
Yeah and at Forest Cop they got it all wrong.
Yeah we have another question.
Yeah what's the question?
So did Germany finally, why couldn't Germany got water from Great Britain or any other
country?
Why do they have to go all the way to Vietnam to get water?
Germans they have a huge hatred against Vietnam people.
Why?
Because they have better food.
Oh, we did not know. Food war. That is factual.
That's factual. Right, it is a factual thing. They have better food than Germany. But so then,
so they decided to take their water? Yes. Okay, wow. But they didn't give it up, so they went to
war. Exactly. Because... Forty day war. It only was 40 days. Forty days.
day war. It only was 40 days. 40 days. Hey! Hey Gabby! Gabby. Wait so it's a kids thing you went to Bobby? Well it's a carnival. Yeah. Okay and it has all the old school rides? It does.
It's like you think you could die maybe. Every time I go on there I think well
this this might be it. The spinning. Who set this up is what I always want to know. Yeah, yeah, you can hear like the notes, not notes.
Bolts.
The bolts and stuff, like kind of breaking,
you feel like, and it's very rusty,
and you've seen those videos on YouTube
that it could go awry.
Oh no, you see the people in there
and you think who is setting these up for real.
But, you know, then you take your three-year-old
and you go for it.
Yeah, and there's a lot of kids there. Lots. And then the teenagers come at
dusk and then it becomes, it's a whole other thing and they walk in one line.
Oh. And then there's also like, I had a friend that got a permanent bracelet.
Who is that? What do you mean? Oh yes, I know what you're talking about. The ones
that they put on that they solder on. They solder on. Yes, yes. I think I've been offered that
and I just didn't go for it.
Yeah, they asked me to do it.
I go, I don't want it permanently on.
Yeah.
Well, you can go to a welder and get it.
I don't know any welders to get it off.
You can just probably cut it off.
Oh, I didn't know that, Gabby.
She could probably do it for you.
You're very pretty.
Really?
You're so sweet, thank you.
Okay, I was a little intimidated, but I'm fine. You're okay pretty. Really? You're so sweet. Thank you.
I was a little intimidated, but I'm fine.
You OK?
He's OK.
He was really nervous.
Because you're also very toned, too.
You know what I mean?
Tone?
Like you're very kind of athletic.
Gets nervous around athletes.
That's what you do when you're not that smart, Bobby.
You jump around.
No, no, no.
You have to be smart.
Lifts heavy things.
No, because the sports are very strategic.
You have to be smart to tell us to play sports.
Not always, but yes.
That's very kind.
Well, you're a volleyball champion, no?
Yeah.
I mean, just the fact that I've survived this long
shows you really how smart I am.
Yeah, what do you mean?
How old are you?
I think I'm like a year older than you.
I think.
I was born in 1970.
I'm 71.
I know.
I try to know what I'm stepping into.
You're 53?
I'm 54, actually.
Wow, you look great.
Thank you.
Wow, your teeth are good, that's unbelievable.
It's like a horse.
He's like, bring it over here.
And then how long have you been married?
Oh gosh, let's see, this year I'll be married
27 years together, 29.
Wow.
You guys still have the hots for each other?
I really love my husband, yeah.
Oh, that's so sweet.
Otherwise why bother?
That is true.
I think that for me, I think, you know,
people think Laird and I, they go,
oh, you know, it's so good,
and I go, actually, what's good is both of us agree
that unless it's enjoyable,
why would you torture them and yourself?
Right.
But then do the thing that makes it enjoyable.
Which is what?
Marriage?
Adventures?
Yeah, no, like make yourself happy first.
Yeah.
I think that's the number one.
No one's coming to save anybody.
Right, but is there still passion?
Well, it has to be.
Oh, right.
OK.
Do you think it's important that you have sort of this joint
mission together, or can you live pretty like divergent lives
and still like come together and have that same closeness?
I think it works in a million ways right for everybody
because everybody's so different.
I think if your values are lined up,
then everything else is kind of okay.
But if like, so maybe that's the secret.
So like for instance, let's say you and I. Like you like you and I okay let's just you and I and I'm also
German you know I mean and very tall in the alternative universe and my name is
Hans very tall doesn't make somebody masculine by the way don't worry about
that okay I'm very small then I'm five one I'm still I'm shorter than I am now
but my still name is Hans.
And I have blonde hair, can I have blonde hair in this neck?
Because I want a blonde hair in this neck.
Sure, go for it.
You know what I mean?
And I was like, sweetie, what's love?
And I was like, I have a weird accent.
That's your German?
No, it's not even German, it's my own accent.
Oh, it's like a made up.
Yeah, yeah, it's a made up.
Okay, so Hans has a different language.
But like Hans is like, you know what I mean?
Let's say I say, I'm Trump, and and you weren't would that still be able to be? I'm Trump? I'm fans of Trump.
I'm fans of Trump. I'm voting for Trump. Are we getting into politics?
Yeah. Oh let me give you another one. No no no let's go to I'm Manchester United.
You're Man City.
Wait, I'll give you a better example.
Why don't we use a real life example
of exactly who you are?
So like, you are sort of like the-
No, no, use his game, but just so he can do his language
and then I'll adjust.
Maybe not the full stop football team, but.
You're just sort of this like icon of like fitness
and health and like doing the right things
to like optimize both your
life, your mind, your body. Bobby is like the complete opposite of that spectrum. He's
like death and vice and like all things.
Is this deep for her? Does it feel like it's still?
It hurts.
And he's also, let's be real, five foot three, right? So I think that we can use real life
as an example here.
Was it too far from five one? And so it's like do you think that you could ever
Be with someone who was like this sloppy. Oh
You guys have a long history
You think I'm gonna like bite a hook on that you're out of your
This is what I will say. Okay, I want to hear what you're saying.
This is what I'm gonna say,
because it'd be like one time I was interviewed
by husband and wife and I'm like,
are we in a therapy session or are we in an interview?
I think, again, this goes back to values.
So if Bobby, let's say in his hypothetical,
was like maybe wanted to stay up late and party and feel sad and talk about being sad,
but maybe.
Didn't do it.
I didn't do anything about the sadness.
Maybe after a while, I might be like,
hey Bobby, let's, you know, maybe we could,
maybe how can I support you?
Right, right, right, right.
But also, listen, there's biological drive,
genetic drive, everybody tries to poo poo that,
but I think it's a real thing. I think so too. What's biological drive to explain? I
mean it's sort of like... What do you want to procreate with? Yeah. So it's like who turns you on, the smell, love the way he smelled.
Everything about him, there was definitely that like inexplicable thing where you're just like,
oh I'm just attracted, right?
And so I do, I am on board with that.
And also like a little.
What about you?
You guys are so funny.
I am on board.
What do you mean, I don't know if I believe him.
Do you have a type?
Do you have a type?
I don't have a type, I don't believe in biological drives. You don't think that you. Yeah? I don't know if I believe them. Do you have a type? Do you have a type?
I don't have a type.
I don't believe in biological drives.
You don't think that either?
Yeah.
I don't believe in that drive.
I don't believe in a lot of things you guys are both are saying.
So you're saying like...
You just think it's too...
I don't know.
I don't even know what's going on.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
Honestly, no.
So I guess I... So what I'm saying is I look for certain things in a woman that have check
marks and if they don't have that check marks, I don't want to breed with them.
Is that what you're saying?
No, I'm not looking.
It's a, it's a.
Yeah, it's a feeling though.
It's like, yeah, it's like.
It's like when someone touches you
or somebody talks to you or there's sort of
these subconscious things first.
Then as you get to know them, you know,
what are they about?
What's their, what, you know,
what are the things that are important to them?
And then it goes on from there.
And then the kicker is if you can grow separately
and together and get through challenging times.
Are you seeing chemistry too?
Is it chemistry?
Chemistry is huge.
Okay.
And I'll give you a great story.
I had a boyfriend, a great boyfriend years and years ago
and he said, cause on paper I was like, this guy is.
Perfect.
And he goes, you know, I have a lot of really great qualities, just not the ones
you're interested in.
Whoa.
And I thought, you know what, and I think
that's what happens, because sometimes we're
with somebody and we go, God, they're so,
they're kind, they're smart, they're hot,
they're whatever the million things they,
for certain people, like they have money,
and it's like, it's not your thing,
and actually when I met my husband,
I wouldn't say that on paper, that was such a great idea. But I knew something inside. You know what
you're so interesting I do like I've been on dates before where I could just
instantly tell that either they feel or I feel like it's not gonna work and I
never see them again. Yeah. Right. And then if they like check the even though
what are those boxes I'd love to know. Oh the check what's so funny.
You want to know my boxes? Well if you to know. Oh, the check, what's a funny hyphen? Oh, your boxes, I just wanna know too.
You wanna know my boxes?
Well, if you wanna get into it, let's get into it, okay?
I'll tell you what my boxes are.
Let's go, I can't wait.
All right, number one, they have to have a dream.
A passion or a dream? Passion goal or like?
It's, yeah, it's the same, right?
Is that the same thing?
They just, I want them to have like...
No, because a dream can be never ending, Bobby.
You know that. Like, I'm gonna do this thing.
I wanna be a princess is not a dream. That's not what I'm talking about.
Like I wanna live in a castle and have long hair or whatever.
And people can climb my hair or whatever.
I'm gonna start a company or something.
Tangled. Tangled, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, no, but like there's people, a lot of them who have dreams, but they don't take the steps to go for it.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. So somebody that has a dream and is actively
trying to achieve those things.
Ambition?
Yeah, just somebody that has passion about something.
Even if it's like, I like making miniature wooden statues
made out of, you know what I mean, wood.
Like a farmer's market.
Yeah, like a farmer's market
and I wanna be the best at it.
I wanna see that kind of passion.
That's number one, okay. one okay number two sorry does it have
to have a return or is it just that they're committed to the to the craft
to the passion do they have to be excellent at it or get excellent or is
it okay that here's what I don't want I want I don't think that it's good and
it's not good for example I want to be a DJ Bobby and then I make you come to all
of my gigs and you hate the way I play then that's not good. For example, I wanna be a DJ, Bobby, and then I make you come to all of my gigs
and you hate the way I play.
Then that's not gonna work, I get you right.
So maybe that's not good.
But you actually want someone who's good at something.
Let's cut it down, because you're good at what you do.
I want someone that's good at something.
I would agree with that.
And I also don't want anyone that thinks
that they're good and they have no self-awareness.
Dunning-Kruger.
What? Dunning-Kruger effect.
Is it called a Dunning-Kruger effect?
Yeah. Okay. What's that mean? No, when someone thinks that, you know, they've got it going on and
they actually... Like American Idol. Go on and they think everyone in my family says I'm a great
singer and then they start and you go, ooh. Yeah. Or here's another thing. I don't like rough skin.
You don't like... you like smooth skin.
I like feminine smooth skin.
What?
No, that's a thing.
Thank you.
It is a thing.
Yeah, yeah.
It doesn't have to be like.
Like what if I, like eczema.
I can't do eczema.
I can't do eczema.
You see, you can't do me.
Yeah, I can't do you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Eczema.
I can't bumps, little bumps and abrasions, I can't do.
Like Keratosis out the picture.
Yeah.
She just has a little thing.
I saw a hot girl once and she had some sort of, like,
skin infection.
It was an infection?
It was like a breakout.
Okay. Okay.
Because I saw her for a couple of days straight,
and then the next day she didn't have a breakout,
and then I asked her,
what the fuck's up with the fucking measles over here?
And then they were like,
oh, she has breakouts every once in a while.
I can't do breakouts.
Okay.
Okay, even, what if she had all the boxes
and the breakouts were only gonna last like six months?
I can't do it.
Okay, okay.
He's honest.
No, no, this is your boxes.
Yeah, yeah, they're my boxes, not your boxes.
That's right, all right, what else?
Okay, here's another thing that I really like
is the other day I was hanging out with a girl, right?
And I go, let's watch, you've never seen The Godfather?
Was she like 24 or something?
I'm just asking.
It was 30.
30.
Really?
And that's an attack and I'm gonna let it go.
No, no, it's an attack.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, because I feel like-
That's a fair question.
Don't you think?
Thank you.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's like iconic film.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, so just maybe, okay.
Well, most people are like, is that three hours long?
No, or whatever, right?
And we started watching it and she pushed pause and she goes, you just don't see films
like this anymore.
I go, what? I mean, look at the way they're telling the story just by
watching by like seeing the party and and the wedding right? You're getting so
much information just by playing out the scene. She was intuitive and bright
watching this thing. Yeah. Right? And then she you know she got really tired so we
only got to the part where Michael kills the cop
and the other guy, right?
But she goes, please, you know what I mean?
So I wanna date somebody that has that.
Yep, that makes sense.
Or they listen to it, like I played like,
Roxy music to a girl.
And she's like, this is garbage, right?
And I'm like, yeah, well then we can't, there's no way.
She has to like what you
like musically. No she has to get certain things. But let me ask you a question. Ask me away. What
if she what if she maybe it's not her thing she doesn't not get it it's just not her thing
but she sees how much you enjoy it and that's good enough. No. You need her to feel this way? No, no, no, no, no. I'm sorry. Have you ever been married?
No.
Oh, okay.
Okay, Boston.
Your attitude right now, I swear to God, I love you so much.
There's nothing you can do.
You're the best.
There's nothing you can do.
There's nothing I can do.
I know.
Here's what I'm saying.
Okay, but what if she was riding next to you in the car, the windows are down, your hair
is blowing, her hair is blowing, your Roxy music's going on, and she goes, look at my guy, he is just, he's in hog heaven right now.
Yeah.
And within there, she could do that the whole time.
Yeah.
She needs to get the, you know, 1982 reference of some Roxy song that you're like-
No, no, no, no, that's not what I'm saying.
Okay.
What I'm saying is this-
She needs to feel it? No, this is what I'm saying. What I'm saying is this.
She needs to feel it?
No, this is what I'm saying is, um, am I saying arrogant or...
Mm-mm.
And confusing?
No, you're just being honest.
I'm just being honest with you.
Good enough.
Okay.
So, um, and I'm going to admit to you right now something about myself, all right?
I don't know much about Kanye.
That's your admission?
I think we've known that.
The audience knows.
Wait, wait, stop.
I thought we were going to go real deep.
No, we are going to go deep.
We are going to go deep.
Because there's a couple albums of his that
Andrew Santino and a bunch of guys, these are
the best albums ever made.
They're classics.
And I force myself to listen to it
because I wanna get it, right?
Because I know they're supposed to be good,
is what I'm saying.
I make the effort to do that.
Right?
I think that's fair.
Okay, thank you.
It's called an open mind, being curious.
Yeah, but I also wanna know what the best things are,
like, you know what I mean, One Car-Chi,
whatever the movies you like.
You know what I mean?
I wanna watch those because I know
they're supposed to be great and I watch it, right?
Even if I don't like it.
Have you watched any?
Yeah I have.
Which ones?
I forgot.
The chunking experience.
The chunking express.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anyway, my point is that, so let's go back to my list.
Okay, I'm ready.
A tomb for love.
I like other people's lists, they're so good.
Because I'm, not that I'm stuck,
but I'm kinda in it already.
You're already in it. I have a fixed list that changes, you know moves around. Mm-hmm. I
Used to need somebody that knows what's going on in the world
Politically
scientifically
Geographically just the basics like if Jaime that's me. Yep. It was a girl
I wouldn't be,
there's, I don't wanna start a fight with you,
and I don't want you to get hurt by this, okay?
But there's nothing about you that I would wanna date.
You don't check any of the things.
You're sweet, you know the one thing you do have
is the sweetness.
Sweet.
He has a pleasant face.
Yeah, you're pleasant, and you're innocent,
and you're sweet, I guess there is a couple of them in there.
See, the deeper you go, there's more.
There's something very sweet about you.
But in terms of like, I don't think you know much about what's going on in Ukraine.
Is it a problem that he didn't know what the Vietnam War was?
No, but to me, it like, you know, that's fine.
That's fine, but it's like, um, I just don't know if I could date somebody that didn't know.
But also, he's like 30 years younger than you.

It's like when I was in high school, right, I knew who Rachmaninoff was and he's not
from my era.
I know who Mozart is.
Mozart?
Mozart.
I heard Mozart, are you sure?
I know what Ozark the TV is. Okay.
So what's the trait that's connected to that?
So rather than making it about the things, what's the trait that you go, I'd like them
to have?
This idea, sense of wonder about the world before them and the one that they live in.
Yeah, there we go.
I want someone to learn too.
I want someone to go, do you know all this?
You know what I mean?

Yeah.
Yeah, curious.

I don't know very, and the more I know.

Who?
I was thinking, it must be a bummer when you don't have like stand-up comedians.
No, no, no.
We like variety.
We get a variety of people and I want to, you know, me open up my world.
Curiosity.
Saying curious. I'm being curious. I'm curious.
I'm curious about you.
You are?
Yeah.
Right.
So, can you name me four Marvel superheroes?
I think so.
Marvel.
Not DC.
Marvel.
Captain Marvel?
Right.
That is one.
That is one. Captain America? Yes.
Yes.
Not Wonder Woman.
No.
No, she's on the other team.
Exactly.
OK, sorry.
Can we give her a hint?
No.
No, you can't, Jaime.
Let me work it out.
Yeah, she can work it out.
Let me work it out.
It's been a second.
Is Flash?
No.
He's on the other team?
Yeah. I feel like the other team had more fun. Some
people do argue that. Yeah. Superman and Batman are both on the other team. Yeah, yeah. Okay,
so we've got Captain America. We have... She gave her that, some of the actors. Oh,
God, that's terrible that I have to know. I mean, Robert Downey Jr., what do you play? Oh,
okay. Now we're on... I got the team now now. So we have Iron Man and we have not the
Hulk. Yes that's right. That's four. Okay that's very good. But here's what it
here's can I say something that's great? Yeah. Is you already in you did internal
dialogue in your own mind said it outwardly and you go that's the other
team. Yeah. So that right there, an awareness that there are two teams
is right by me, my friend.
Really?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, very, very good.
Okay.
So.
Hey, what are your boxes?
Your shifting boxes.
Yeah.
You know, I have to say that obviously when I met,
I heard at 25, you have different ideas.
At 25, then you do it 54, and after you go through things.
To oversimplify it, I think what it came down to was,
on the value side, just very honesty.
My husband is, was actually way more,
is way more honest than I am.
I think in nature too, and I can say this
because I'm a female, I think females are typically,
even if we're, I put in quotes, good, we're more shielded
and it's just a different language.
Honest in one way, I'm sorry.
Just honest, transparent about the things that matter.
I went to a strip club, that kind of thing.
My thing is we call it need to know.
Need to know.
Like if I need to know, you'll tell me.
And you probably have a sense of what that is.
And the other thing we've established
is I'm not Laird's mother, right?
So I think that's really important.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay?
Hits me in the deeps.
Well, he told me when I was,
okay, I'll get back to that.
I'll tell you my list.
So, and quite frankly, it's like
somebody who I am a different person with.
So he's the only person I get to be that side of myself with.
Wow, that's very nice.
So the feminine, the nurturing,
I enjoy serving my family, you know,
taking care of them, and then go out in the world.
Pot roast kind of thing?
Yeah. Okay.
But let me tell you.
Do you know how nice it is
when someone puts food in front of your face?
I love it.
And then your friends are sitting around
bullshitting around.
So with Laird, it's it's uh he
bring he kind of brings that out. There's no demand. It's not like woman do
that because that probably wouldn't work.
That's not gonna work for him.
No. So it's it's the way he is sort of brings out the side of me that I didn't know was there.
And then maybe the other thing that felt really important, he he's a good dad. And
that was obviously a little bit later,
but he, I kind of really appreciate the way he is there
for my girls and gives them strength.
He says that, I know this sounds silly,
but he's like sometimes being a dad,
especially to daughters, because they don't understand.
They weren't teenage girls or girls ever.
Is he's like, sometimes you're like the post in the room
and they just want to wanna know that you're there
and your job is just to be there and be strong.
You know?
Yeah, and be constant.
And you know, he once in a while will of course,
some want a lot of affection,
others don't wanna be touched.
Like he, you know, I watch him get tortured all in there.
And somebody can have a little bit.
Does that hurt?
It hurts him, I see it.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, when girls start to develop too,
they don't want their dads, so it's like, ew.
And I have one daughter in particular
who's very affectionate, and then my youngest daughter
is like a cat.
Oh wow. You like cats, right?
I love cats, I have three of them.
You would like my daughter.
I saw a video of a little three year old kid,
and her dad was out of town for like three months.
Oh.
And she's like kind of waiting, you know, by the door.
Yeah. Right, and she hears know come up to the door and when he opens the
door she's bursting the tears jumps on top of him and she goes, this is my daddy!
And crying right yeah and in my mind when I watch that video I think to myself I'll
never experience that.
As a girl or?
No it's just...
Did you um...
Bobby waiting at the door no it's you know you're dating 30 year old women you could
easily be a dad that's scary you why don't you why would you know but I
don't think anyone who wants have a baby with me really? Yeah? Yeah, you might have to set them up
Yeah, yeah, no, why do you say that?
Because I haven't had one. What's why are you crying?
Anyway anyway
Anyway, so anyway, so I think you could work that out. What I think you could work
Maybe maybe if the Lord you know, I mean, but um, you want Maybe, maybe. If the Lord, you know what I mean? You wanna have a kid?
Oh, he chimed in hard.
Yeah, eventually, yeah, okay.
It's a hard time, isn't it?
Look, look, look.
Time he chimed in, you see that?
Yeah, I do, I mean.
Okay.
But then it's like, and I look at these experiences,
I'm sure that's just, I mean, you know.
Can I tell you don't romanticize parenthood?
Oh, that's a really good tip.
Well, tell me why.
Well, listen, it's a one of a kind experience and it changes
your life in a way that you can explain and you go through things that only that puts you through
it. But you know, when people think, and I think I always love like moms, they're like, you have
another one and I don't know, they're, my kids are perfect. It's like, okay. Is if people think
they're going to put, and I'll put it in quotes, be happier because they have
children, that's not what it is. And so I don't like it when people try to sell that bill of goods
to other people, especially if they haven't had children yet, because that's not what it is.
I know. I've seen it.
It's magical. It's hard. You never hit the mark. That's the other incredible thing.
Like your shows that you have and your work,
you go, oh, that show's doing well and here's success
and you have a litmus and a gauge of things.
Parenting is, the arc is long on the story.
You're like, well, we'll see how that works out in 10 years.
And every day you're getting near a target,
but you're not hitting a target.
And your job is to get up the next day
and do it the best that you can the next day
and maybe bring the lessons that you learned in.
But it's not like, oh my gosh.
I have a girlfriend that looked at me, she has four kids.
Oh, well that's a lot.
And she looked at me and she goes,
let me be completely honest with you, Bobby.
And I go, yeah, she goes, I don't know if it was worth it.
Well, her kid's little and she's in a shit show right now.
Yeah, and I go, what do you mean?
She's like, it's fucking hard and I don't have a life.
And my whole life is these kids.
And she locked eyes with me and she goes,
I'm telling, she's like, I'm telling you right now.
It's probably not worth it, dude.
She's sleep deprived too, though.
It doesn't matter.
Well, we're in the trenches.
Yeah, it's a different deal.
Yeah, you're saying it like we're in a war.
Trenches, foxhole.
I feel like George.
I mean, don't make war references.
George is two under two,
and I'm sure it feels that way, right, George?
Well, look at him, dude.
He's lost.
Well, they're a little older now,
so it's a little bit better, but yeah.
It was a real war zone for a while there little bit better but yeah it was a it was a
real war zone for a while there. Yeah yeah is it worth it? Yeah. Why? Uh the fulfillment.
Okay the fulfillment what? No no they're very cute now they're in such a cute age now
so now when I could like have time to enjoy them, it's fun. But no, for a while there,
it was just survival. Yeah. Okay. Survival. Well, and besides the love, what you, what you
kind of come to start to see is that you really are of service to, to your children and whether
we like it or not. And, and there's people who, whether they do anything for their community or the world, if you,
if you dedicate time and service to another person,
there, it gives you something that nothing else does. It is hard.
It is not set. It's not sexy. You know, people aren't like good job.
And you learn not only about the world that you live in, That's the other thing, right? They keep you into the
into the new world, right? They say you're not born into the
world. You don't live in the world you're born into. Well,
and so the young you you go on the road and you do stand up
comedy. So you have young comedians that are keeping you
in the flow of everything. And kids do that for you. So they
keep your mind changing because you go, well, this is how it is. That's not how it is. I see what you're saying. I have to talk to do that for you so they keep your mind changing? Cause you go, well, this is how it is.
That's not how it is.
I see what you're saying.
I have TikTok to do that, but yeah, I see what you're saying.
Okay, there you go.
And you graduate.
Yeah.
You keep, you keep graduating to, to other like places
as a person.
Yeah. I think the one thing that I will never,
if I don't have kids, the one thing I will never know,
right, is when I actually get older,
and I'm on my deathbed,
and I'm gonna look around,
and don't go,
and I'm gonna say what I'm gonna say,
and everyone's gonna go,
no, dude, no, you know what I mean?
But I'll probably be alone,
maybe my brother will be there, you know what I mean?
Just staring at me like, you right, dude? And I'm like, I think I'm done, you know what I mean? Just staring at me like, you right dude? You know what I mean? And I'm like, I think I'm done, you know what I mean?
And then that's it, you know? I'm not going to know a warmth, you know what I mean? Of baked
goods or, you know, people coming, you know, kids. But those are movies. You're watching movies.
I know, but I guarantee you though. Yeah. But if I'm on, when I'm on my deathbed, my girls will come? Your girls will be there.
And they will be destroyed.
They will be heartbroken.
But I don't want them to be heartbroken.
But they will be though, right?
I don't, maybe.
No, they'll cry.
You're like a prophet, are you just kidding?
What do you mean?
Am I being too aggressive?
No, not at all.
No, no, no.
That's aggressive. I mean, if you died your mom Roger maybe crash. Yeah, your sister. I can name a thousand people
You don't think we'd be crushed if you died. You will not cry. Oh, that's not true. That's interesting
That's a crazy. I don't know. I know I think you'll be sad. Oh, yeah. Well, this is a bummer, dude
You know me because I talk like that and you'll be like, well this is a bummer dude, you know what I mean? Yeah, because I talk like that. And you'll come up to me, whoa, it's tubular,
it's tubular what you're going through.
My guy is dead.
My guy, my guy.
But all right, but I don't know if,
yeah people would be sad,
but you know what I'm saying, like family.
No, but there's chosen fam, oh my gosh.
So, all right.
Give them the truth, come on.
All right, so, okay, I appreciate that.
And also you come from a specific culture.
Whoa, let's go. Yeah, Korean. Let's go. Yeah. So within that, it's like you have your family and
then there's outside people, right? Right. Okay. So where I come from, like I grew up in the Caribbean
and my dad died when I was five and I didn't always live with my mom. Okay. So I have a lot of,
I had a couple that took me in and took care of me, that was like our introduction
to chosen family.
I've made a family with my husband, chosen family.
So I think sometimes when you open up your mind,
because you have a lot of people around you,
that you go, oh, well, this is not my family family.
You're right.
So I think it's, you know.
I think you're right.
Yeah. Okay. So just, you's, you know. I think you're right. Yeah. Okay.
So just, you know, you can have a different.
I think every relationship is give and take.
Like what do you get except one?
The one you have with your children.
Yeah.
They don't owe you anything.
Yeah. I just feel like the way I was raised,
this is what I believe about family is that, you know, cause I come from, I'm from the Philippines. Yeah. And that is ingrained in our, in our brain.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what, yeah.
Yeah.
Where it's like all about, like you said, it's duty,
duty, duty.
Duty, duty.
It doesn't matter if that person has sexually abused
you.
It doesn't matter if A, B and C has happened to you.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused.
It doesn't matter if you've been abused. It doesn't matter if you've been abused. It about like you said it's duty duty duty It doesn't matter if that person has sexually abused you it doesn't matter if a B and C has happened to you
It is if you are a younger person and that is your elder you're supposed to respect
You're supposed to keep your mouth shut and you're supposed to always be of service to like your elders
That's what I'm saying. Yeah, I think that's so that that's like one of the reasons why my family is in such dysfunction
Because it's like one of the reasons why my family is in such dysfunction
because it's like no one's being honest,
everything's being swept under the rug
and everyone's fucking miserable.
I'm learning, I'm learning.
Are you okay?
Yes.
What's going on with you?
I'm learning.
You're like a bubble.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I agree with that though
and I think if the adults acted like adults
Yeah, that would be the healthy start for the family. Are you gonna go home and break up with some family members?
No, no, cuz I'm learning from you people. What did you learn?
So at this point, you know me let's say there's a little intermission we would like to hear your point of view of what you
Learned well, I'm not a dad
Obviously, cuz you know, yeah, why I'm young 28. That's not that young. Okay
What do we learn you're almost 30
Parenting I wish you know from what you've been saying
I wish you can do you wish you can skip like the first six years?
No, that's easy. That's easy. You're tired, but it's child's play. Oh, it's when they're teenagers.
It's worse. I think I would want to. It's different. You got to use a different part of your brain.
It's like you go from backgammon to chess. It's very different. I think I would skip the first
seven years. No, you wouldn't because they're really fun and cute. You're tired and you're like,
what the hell? Okay, let's say I was your son.
I'm in high school.
I'm ready.
Okay.
And he looks like that.
Yeah.
Imagine if you brought your friends home to me and you're like, this is my mother.
And I'm like, and I'm smoking weed in my bedroom.
Okay.
And I'm getting all Fs.
Okay.
All Fs?
All Fs on my report card.
Okay.
Are you hurting yourself or doing anything really serious?
No, no, I'm not cutting myself.
Okay, great.
Right, right. But I'm just smoking weed. Do you know if know if you're a boy or girl like where you at with that?
I'm totally joking because imagine what people have to go through now. Okay. I'm just kidding. Go ahead. I think boy. Okay
I think I think boy. I think I think so. I'm smoking weed, right? I'm not really doing anything. I don't have a job, right?
Okay, how old do you 17? Yeah, I'm 17 years old. Okay.
Right, I'm a senior.
My bad.
And then, what would you say to me?
I'm your son, I'm just smoking weed all day,
note, you know, all F's, not going to college.
All right, let's play it out.
You're smoking, she walks in.
She walks in.
Mom, fucking knock when you come in the house, my room.
You're so annoying.
First of all, the conversation
would have happened a lot longer before we got here.
Okay, let's go back then.
I'm 13.
It's called course correct.
I'm 13 then.
Walk into his room and it's just crunchy socks.
Yeah, no, I mean, listen, all that stuff,
you should have the freedom to express,
from ejaculating from whatever.
Right?
Yeah.
Okay.
You're still good.
I feel like she's the only one who got it.
She's great.
She's great. Okay. So,. I feel like she's the only one who got it. She's great. She's great.
Okay.
So, no listen, here's the deal.
People, like we think, oh we're gonna make our kids
like this, like that.
You are born in a lot of ways how you are.
So I think the key is to try to go, hey, what do you like?
You don't have to like what I like,
or what everyone else in the family likes.
What do you like?
I like horseshoes.
Okay, so we're gonna put a horseshoe course
or you just like the horseshoe?
I don't like to throw them or play the game.
I like collecting horseshoes.
Tell your mom.
Great.
Mom, I like collecting horseshoes.
Okay, what else do you like?
I like paw shoes.
Paw shoes?
Yeah.
Oh, I don't know what that is.
Just shoes for paws for any animal.
Oh, paw shoes. Paw shoes. Like the Oh, I don't know what that is. Just shoes for paws for any animal.
Oh, paw shoes.
Paw shoes.
Like the dogs wearing the heat?
Yeah.
I have a collection of different shoes for different animals.
And anything else?
Do you have friends?
Is there any subject in school you like at all?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I like light fixtures.
Light fixtures like electricity?
No.
Or just the fixtures?
Just the fixtures.
So like design?
No, I just like, I collect the same bulb.
Same kind of bulb.
I'm obsessed with just the traditional bulb.
I have a thousand of them, right?
And I like to lick them.
And sometimes I like to crush the glass
and chew on the glass.
Oh. You know what I mean? And then I also have a collection of and chew on the glass. Oh, you mean?
And then I also have a collection of horseshoes and paws.
He took us out of the bedroom and into some place that you can't, you can't, you
can't even touch right now. Right. So if that was the thing.
So I get you a job at a hardware store. Oh, I see.
I see. No. So what I, what I.
I'm going to give you something normal. I'll give you something normal.
Oh, fuck. Way past that.
Paws shoes. No, no, no. Let's, let's you something normal. I'll give you something normal. Oh, fuck, we went way past that. No, no, no. Law shoot?
No, no, no, let's go somewhere normal.
Okay, did you like comedy?
You obviously liked movies when you were 13.
You clearly liked movies and music when you were 13.
But this is my theory on it.
You have a theory about parenting and children?
I do.
I'm ready.
Takes a sip. I don't know. Because I was a child.
Okay, what would you do if you...
No, no, no, no, I want to hear.
No, keep going.
She wants a theory.
She wants a theory.
Let me just tell you this theory and then write...
Let her dissect.
There is nothing that...
Let's have fun.
Because my parents...
I never learned anything from them.
No, that's not true.
That's a lie.
Well, they never spoke English.
Okay, so you learned another language.
So I learned everything.
No, I barely can understand anything.
I can't understand anything.
I can't understand anything.
I can't understand anything. I can't understand anything. I can't understand anything. I That's a lie. Well they never spoke English. Okay so you learned another language. So I learned everything. No I barely can
understand Korean and I learned everything from film and television. Yep
sounds like Rosie O'Donnell. You ever hear that? She's like that was her
babysitter, her friend. Right. Okay. So I learned the world by watching Scorsese
movies and like watching also just just regular movies, you know what I mean? Like comedies, whatever.
And like, you know, Chevy Chase movies,
like Fletch or whatever.
And so I was a drug addict at 11.
What kind?
Meth.
Yep.
I did all kinds of weird, like, gay sexual activities
with people around me. I lit
things on fire, right?
You whipped your grandma.
I whipped my grandma with like these um...
Like on a regular basis?
No just one time.
Okay okay.
Well I was um I got all F's throughout high school. I went to three rehabs.
There was and I just at 23 I just started to do stand up.
And now here we are.
My point being is that I was always gonna just do
what I wanted to do and there was nothing
that anyone could do to change the course
of the trajectory of where I was.
How would you have parented yourself?
There was no way.
I mean it's basically, if I was parenting me,
I would just be like, here's some money to eat, here's a bed. Stay
alive. You stay alive and then just do what you're gonna do and then I'll catch
you on the backside. Do you have siblings? Yeah Steve is the same way. Okay. What is the
correct way like do you just hold your breath if that's his fact he's saying
that's his factory set. I don't I think yeah the thing is, is also you got a kid who's,
you have a kid who's being raised by a different culture.
So you got an American kid living in the US
and that culture being raised by different,
so parents who don't understand at all.
We already don't understand
and then you're gonna multiply it
and then nobody's probably talking about things.
And so some of that is a reaction
to maybe not being seen or heard.
So I think I understand, but yes,
sometimes stuff goes on with your kids.
I've gone through things with my girls
and I had a friend say this to me
and it was a really good line.
She goes, listen, we all get our time,
our turn in the barrel,
and sometimes we gotta be there longer than we want to, cause shit happens.
And I can remember a three year period with one of my girls
where I was like, okay, this is a tough thing,
I'm gonna support her and get her whatever she needs,
the help she needs, and we're gonna see her choices
that she makes.
But with, what you're talking about is extra layers though.
Very layers.
Yeah, so if you're doing that kind of stuff at 11,
you know, things were happening.
And it felt bad for my parents.
It was a headache.
I mean, it was a nightmare for them.
A nightmare.
Well, can you imagine also their programming?
They don't, like what are you talking about?
They don't even know what to do.
Right, you're hardwiring.
Yeah, they don't even know what Santa Claus is.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, how are they?
No, my point is, my parents-
Are they alive?
No, my mom is.
My parents, they didn't know just any,
like in terms of American culture or rituals or anything,
they don't know anything about it.
Right, they don't know what weed is,
they don't know what like,
you know what I mean, they don't know what Robert De Niro is,
they don't know any of that, right?
So if you came home and you were stoned,
they wouldn't even recognize it.
At first, no, they didn't.
My mom found a glass and a razor blade
and a straw in a plastic thing.
And I go, oh yeah, that's for science class.
Yeah.
And she goes, oh okay, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
Like they don't know.
And the weed was, I said it's, oh I'm in a cooking class
and it's oregano.
And I need to.
Oh come on.
White oregano?
No, I'm not kidding you.
Do you think that that's part of what's drug you out
that maybe you haven't had kids
because you think the way you were, you're scared?
Oh yeah.
Yeah, that makes sense.
Because if I had one of mine, me, if I had one of me.
That's sort of why.
Nightmare.
My hesitation with having kids for the longest time
was I was so just very sure I wanted to kill my bloodline.
Like I had such a.
That was.
That sounds really intense.
She said that to me.
But I've told you this before, right?
We've talked about this.
Very Game of Thrones.
Where it's like my, there was so much like deep dysfunction
and just so much like just darkness.
Dirty blood, dirty blood.
Yeah, dirty, like, and now that I'm on the other side of it,
and I can make choices for myself, and now it feels like,
okay, like perhaps like I'm an involved person and it wasn't
like a bloodline issue, but I honestly, for the longest time,
thought that the bloodline was like tainted.
And this is something I do not want to like perpetuate
or bring about or like continue.
You know, I've known you for a long time.
Yeah.
But I've known you for a very long time.
Mm-hmm.
And it came up mumbly.
You have a pure blood. I like your bloodline.
Thank you.
It's pure blood.
But you've met my murderous family.
Yeah, yeah, but they're still pure blooded.
They're, I don't, I don't think so.
Most importantly.
Yeah.
Pure blood.
Yeah.
No, I don't know.
Yeah, yeah.
Sounds like from you.
You seem like pure blooded.
Not at all.
Okay.
I always like envy that feeling of people wanting to be like,
I want a piece, I want to see a version of me or see myself as like,
you know, like they want to procreate that drive.
I had that opposite feeling of just being so terrified of being like,
I don't want to make another me or another person from this.
I want to add one last thing.
I want to have some more thing. Can I have someone with me?
Okay?
Uh-huh.
There's one incident as a child
where I think it changed the course of me as a kid
and my attitude toward my parents and toward the world.
And if I was a parent in that situation,
I would have handled it a lot differently.
And that's with Tom, my cat.
I remember Tom.
All right, so when I was eight years old,
I begged my parents for a cat,
because I have three cats.
I loved animals.
And they got me a kitten.
And for a whole summer, I played with that kitten.
They wouldn't let it in the house.
They only let it in the garage.
We had like a little area. and every day, every summer,
I just fell in love with this guy.
And one day, Tom was gone.
And I went up to my parents and I go,
oh, I went to the garage and the cat's not there,
Tom's not there.
And my dad goes, your mommy, she allergic.
And I go, okay, Tom gone. And I go, okay, tongue gone.
And I go, okay, and they're like, stop crying.
And then I sat the whole summer, not summer,
but just in the garage, sitting there, weeping,
because I had no, what's so funny, dude?
Wait, wait, what the, no, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. What the fuck's so funny dude?
Because it happened to me too. Oh my dog Toby. Oh Toby. He was laughing out of nose. You feel bad now don't you?
I'm yelling. What happened to Tom? They gave it away or whatever, but.
You wonder why you did drugs and messed around a bit?
Come on, that's tough.
Yeah, it's tough.
And it's like, if I was a parent,
I would have gone up to my kid, I really would,
this is real, and go, hey, listen, Joe Byer.
You almost said Joe Biden.
Joe Byer?
Yeah, listen, Joe Biden. That's my next son's name, all right? Joe Biden. You know what I Biden. Yeah. Listen Joe Biden.
That's my next son's name, all right?
Listen Joe Biden.
You know what I mean?
Stop being so sleepy.
Open your eyes.
And I'll be like, listen, mommy's allergic
and we gotta figure a way where you can still hang out
with Tom, right?
And yet, you know, mommy, you know, me and Ken,
like not feel the effects of the allergies.
So let's compromise. let's figure out a way
where we're both happy.
I mean, don't you think, that's what I would do as a kid.
So I gave the cat to our neighbor, the Andersons,
and you know that you love them,
and they said, you can go visit Tom anytime you want,
and is that cool?
And then my son, Joe Biden Biden would be like, well, how
allergic does mom get? Right? And I go, well, she breaks out in rashes is really risky.
And dad doesn't like bumpy skin.
Yeah, yeah. And you know, me, I lose my heart on what's not excited by your mother.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's like, okay, I know you need to get hard and have sensual activities, so I guess.
Keep his peace in the house.
Yeah, so I guess you can keep,
the Andersons can have Tom and I can visit,
you know what I mean, something like that.
But my parents didn't do that.
They were like, you have no say.
Well, and then stop crying.
Shut the fuck up and stop crying.
Stop crying.
Right.
Actually, that's the biggest sin of all, I think.
Stop crying?
Yeah.
I think it is.
My neighbors, they're husky. No, tell me about Toby.
Tell me about Tommy. Tell me the story of Toby. My neighbors had a husky, like a
big white husky, jumped over the fence and when we came home from school, me and
my sisters, we went to the backyard and he was dead.
Was it not your dog?
Wait, wait, wait. Hold on, hold on.
The husky attacked your dog? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, Anderson's though. No, that's- We had a Husky. I didn't have the Anderson's either. That was a hypothetical neighbor.
Wow, we went to the car.
My bad.
When you said, you know what I mean, that happened to me, I thought your dad had given
away Toby too and then he told you to shut the fuck up.
So what you're saying is your dog was full blown murdered by other dogs.
By a Husky.
Yeah, so it's not the same thing.
Okay, but I lost a dog.
There we go.
And were you comforted by someone? Lost a pet someone let's really get it in the same way but your parent didn't comfort you were
in comforted as a kid no they were in mexico for a month and it was just my uncle watching us and
me it was only me my sister's day did you cry yeah a little bit yeah we had to bury the dog
all right but you cried a little bit yeah a little bit like maybe like a day or two and then okay
Pretty good. He's still working it out right now. Yeah, pretty good
Yeah, very good similar
So you think success comes from all that other stuff? I think his success like I always like to think of when I look at Bobby
his trauma is both like an asset than a liability and
but I do think that so much of who he is
is born out of this very dark upbringing.
But I do think the liability comes interpersonally.
We're perfectly wounded in all the ways
we're meant to be wounded, right?
And then our job is to kind of go to school
and work it all out.
Yeah, I get that.
But your sounds pretty heavy duty.
It's not at all.
Really?
Really?
No, because I'm in a 12-step program.
I have a therapist, I have a psychiatrist.
I try to do meditation and heal.
I'm aware of a lot of my trauma
and I've worked through with doing EMDR and a lot of trauma with my dad and all
those the Tom thing I did EMDR with with the cats it doesn't really have the same
kind of potency as it once did so it's like I feel much freer in my life I do
do work you know I mean so that I don't kill myself.
You know what I mean?
So it's like, no, I think I'm on a healthy trajectory.
I show up on time when I work on sets.
I feel like I'm nice to everybody.
I'm very mindful about how people feel.
And sometimes I made a girl cry on set in Montana.
And I apologize, no, in a bad way.
And I apologize immediately.
What do you think the thing is you're most intolerant of?
Like a lack of intelligence?
Because he gets bored, right?
Oh, that's interesting.
No, yeah, I'd say very interesting.
It feels like you're a person who doesn't tolerate
when someone's getting it.
No, no, no.
I fill empty spaces with a bunch of bullshit.
And I'll go on a rant.
So what I did was I
went on a rant I rant with this actress that's on the show and went on a rant
and it was hurting her feelings I didn't even know. Oh you thought it was funny
and she took it personal? I thought it was funny and she burst into tears. But it's an actress.
You have to watch out. I know and I hugged her and I go I am so fucking sorry I'm so
sorry I was joking and I took it too far so fucking sorry, I'm so sorry.
I was joking and I took it too far.
So sometimes my instincts when it comes to that isn't good.
But I immediately apologize.
You know what I mean, when I see somebody hurt, you know?
I love that about you though.
He really, like, when he's fucked up, it's like,
there's, yeah, apologize.
That's all you can do.
But I will say, like, his 10 year,
he is leaps and bounds from when I first met him,
like 12 years ago.
He, like, I mean, unrecognizable.
I know it seems like he's still like a chaotic person,
but like he really has, like the work you've put in
is kind of incredible.
Yeah.
I don't feel like you're chaotic.
Thank you so much.
I don't. Yeah, I'm better.
I mean, I used to be, I think I'm better.
If I tell stories about, you know, when I'm on the,
I was working on this movie in Montana
when I was telling other actors about my old stories
of the things I did, it blew their mind.
I'm like, why would you do that or behave that way?
And I feel like those days are over for myself.
You know, I used to, you know,
I didn't know how to be in a corporate setting. When I was on Mad TV,
I said and did and behaved in ways that were, if I'm in retrospect, uncalled for and quite
frankly disgusting, my behavior. I wish I could take it back, but you know, I've learned from it.
That's nice.
Yeah.
That was fair.
It is?
Yeah, well I'm learning, I'm learning from you.
I think what's really important,
that's really nice.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Did I tell you about
my dog? Yeah, no, no, no. It's my dog's alive. Sorry. Is that
we forgive ourselves? Yeah. That's all. We forget ourselves.
Yeah, we have to we all everybody every day. Nobody's
perfect. Nobody is. And sometimes. It's funny, the
obvious stuff for me,
it's the same as the stuff that's quiet in other ways.
Okay, you can be like, oh, they do this, this, and this,
but if you have other people that maybe they,
they don't communicate, they don't, they're not expressive,
whatever, that's a pain in another way.
So I think as long as people do better.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah, I think-
That's very Demure of you. Oh, geez. Demure.
Demure. Demure. Oh, my gosh. I know what that is. Demure. He does know. So, um, do you want to
promote anything? Wait, I have more questions. No, I wanted to come say hi. What, you don't
have a podcast? I do. I have. What's it called? So, let's promote that. It's very, uh. You have
a lot of great guests. Oh, yeah. They have. yeah, they have. Who are your best guests you've gotten?
Just really smart people.
Really smart people.
Way smarter than me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's called the Gabbie Re Show.
The Gabbie Re Show.
My hope is like, listen, just get really smart.
Zoom in.
See the names. Smart people and.
Whoa.
Is that Sterling?
Yeah, cause he had a really wicked brain injury.
Then TBI.
Who's Sterling?
He's a surfer. He's my friend.
And he, my thing is just to have mostly
scientists and people on there. Keep going, keep going. McCaffrey trains. He's
a beast. Oh look there's a beefcake. There's your man. Yeah. I have a question. Do you think that
you do a fitness program, and I see you guys
doing a lot of underwater drills that I love.
And Bobby is always-
Can I take Bobby at the pool?
That's what I was thinking, because he's a great swimmer.
I wanna do whatever that's happening there.
Please come to my house.
I think you'd be a great candidate.
Please Bobby.
Come to my house.
We'll take care of you.
I wanna know what's happening there.
No, I'm sorry, but is there any pictures of it
under the water?
Is there any underwater pool training?
There's, no you're not.
See, they're holding weights underwater.
They're walking like-
But you don't have to do any-
How many, you live there or do you just go visit everyone?
Well, no, I have a pool at my house
that you can come train at.
See, there's like, there's the dumbbells.
But I want to do a group.
I don't want to be just, you know-
Listen, I have guys from the NBA and the NFL.
You're not going to be in a group.
We'll take care of you.
Like, you'll be protected.
It's all these guys in body.
What do you mean?
The rock, Dave.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But also, listen, I have really,
people who are really good at one thing,
and they can't swim.
Right.
Because imagine, culturally, a lot of these guys aren't,
they didn't grow up around water.
In access, right?
So if you like water, you're way ahead.
Yeah. Do you like swimming, you're way ahead.
Do you like swimming? I do love it.
You should come over.
I'm good at it.
I'm okay with it.
I can survive in it.
How do you think he would do?
I actually think he's kind of a sleeper
in that he is unusually athletic
and I mean agile in all the ways
like I would have never imagined.
Like he is kind of physically gifted, I think.
Like when I was, you know, when I do sporting events with real athletes,
they can't believe my agility and the way I can commit to things.
Like, for instance, I was at the movie set again and there was a ping pong table
and there was like a cowboy, like cowboys over there.
This cowboy was like, hey, man, you don't play it little
man. You little man, you play ping pong. And I go, yeah, I'm okay. I'll play you man. You know what
I mean? I destroyed him and then they- I hate your ping pong style. Oh what, is he chopping at it
and stuff? He's legit. He's like- Oh is he, is he, is he doing all that? Yeah, he does that and he steps
back and lobs it back at the end of the table so you can't get a good hit on it. Yeah, bounces away
from you? Yep, no matter what he did, no matter how hard you hit it, he lobs it back at the end of the table so you can't get a good hit on it. Yep, bounces away from you?
Yep, no matter how hard you hit it,
he'll get it back to you.
Did you tell the cowboy, doesn't he watch the Olympics?
Does he pay attention to what's going on in the world?
Yeah, he doesn't know.
Little Asia, he doesn't know.
And I played him, he was astounded.
Like, what the fuck, man?
And I go, dude, you don't know how to play.
I spin, dog.
You know what I mean?
You practice?
I don't even practice, I don't have to play for years.
It's in the genes, it's in the cells.
I love little things.
He has, but he does have, he's really low on gas.
His cardio is-
That's the thing, I have to take breaks.
In ping pong, no.
Yeah, yeah.
I get wind out of it.
I know you can take breaks, we can throw you in the sauna.
No, but I would really like to,
a participating in your pool situation.
No, I'm serious, I will take you.
What will be fun is to watch you and Laird together. That's an amazing couple right there. We'd be a great
combination. No, he is. He's great. Do you, now, is part of the program sort of like,
coaching him into like a better lifestyle because he's like a smoker. I'm not going to tell him
anything. A guy like that, you don't tell anything. It's got to occur to them. It's your philosophy. Bingo. I mean she's so wise this one. No well I'm not wise I just I've been around for five
minutes. I know you get it though. I do what I want to do and I don't do it. I see.
