The 8th of mother fucking february. It's a beautiful day to be alive
Welcome to uncle joey's joint again. I'm here on a monday with my light little blue sweatshirt on
Listen, I like blue on a monday morning a little light blue. It starts the week off, right?
Let you know i'm non-threatening. You know i'm saying it's just a
A cute little color. You know i'm saying just to start the week off on the right fucking leg here
If not, you know, it's funny. I told you guys that when I used to go to for commercials
If I would wear a black shirt to a mobster commercial
I wouldn't get it
But if I'd wear a white shirt
To a mobster commercial I'd get it
If I did it for a movie it was vice versa
So if I went for a mobster role in a movie
I would use a black shirt if I go for a mobster movie
In a commercial I would wear a white shirt. So just it's like a joke. It's not what you say
It's how you say it. So sometimes for me colors
It just I don't know. I just wanted to fucking talk about the color blue. I had a great weekend this weekend
the Super Bowl was great
Fucking saturday one of my friends called me up and he
Asked me if I wanted to go to another friend of mine's house
That just had surgery. He's having fucking surgery. It's my age. It's funny because
When I got there
There was four of us. It was my friend his wife and the guy who drove me
We've been hanging out together since we were
Maybe 13 years old
I remember her going to take me
To get my driver's license paperwork before
I had a connection and my buddy didn't even need to get me a driver's license
He just called the driving school
But she was the one that took me when I was 16 and a half to get my permit
That's how back I go with these people, you know
So I guess he broke his toe. So he's got like a boot on like my wife
So we just went down there yesterday and ate a few brownies and talked shit
You know, and this is what I got home. My wife was like, how was it? And I was like, you know
I had forgotten about this
I had forgotten what it was to sit with friends
and just talk
Everything for the last 20 years, especially my life in LA has been business and this is
What this move was about people
For me, this move wasn't about a career move
If I wanted a career, I was gonna stay in LA
You know, I I don't know
Right now as of March, what is it February 8th?
Right now, I don't know what's gonna happen with stand-up. I know that I have
That weekend on my birthday at Vinnie's I got the 24th
I got the whole month of March. I'm doing a uh, you know, a residency there
But after that, I really don't know I've been doing commie now
This month right now was when I started
At Whitsend 30 years ago, you know, this is 30 years. I've been doing this
So I don't want you going to spread in rumors that I'm quitting. I'm not quitting
I'm not quitting to stand up. I just don't know how or how I want to do it, you know
I might just do it as a hobby
I might just stay in New Jersey. I might just stay on the east coast
Who knows maybe in September my mind will change remember when the movie comes out
My mind will change completely
But as of right now, I don't even see me getting on a plane, man
It's the weirdest fucking thing like I just I talked to Theo, you know, I had a nice talk with Theo and Theo's like
Dog, I'm not even looking at anything till 2022. I was like Jesus Christ
I thought I was fucking bad, you know, it's just
You know, and he said he goes I'm tired. We've been burnt out, you know, I go back with Theo
I didn't know Theo at the time
But I remember playing Beaumont, Texas
Which is on the Louisiana border pretty close. You know
Fact check me maybe an hour. I think I don't know
And I remember playing Beaumont and hearing about Theo
And Beaumont was slayed rude slayed Ham's rooms shot out the slayed ham down in Houston
He had the room out in Beaumont
And I would hear about Theo Theo was kicking ass down in New Orleans as a young kid
So the other night when I was talking to Theo Theo was like dog. I'm fucking tired. I was like goddamn
I thought I was the only one he's
He said he was looking to buy a house in Nashville. He likes it and uh
That yeah, he's not looking to do anything, you know, and we're all the same. I mean, we're all doing spots
He goes to the Monday night Zainis right at Nashville and
They give him a Wednesday a month and you know, we're still in it like that but
To be back in the impact of that of how big that was
At the time, I don't think I could do it anymore. It's not that I don't want to do it
You know, I love you motherfuckers. You know, I love performing. I just I don't even see myself doing a 1030 show
Like that's how far away my mind is like I was like
What if I got to do two shows and one night I got to work on my comedy cardio again
Yeah, it's been a February 29th was my last road gig
February 29th. Remember last year was a fucking leap year. So don't say joey
There's no February 29th. There was a fucking leap year. I was in vegas. That was my schedule last year consisted of Atlanta
one night two shows
valentine's day and fucking
Tempe and then vegas. I did three weekends on the road last year
And you know, I always worked out. I don't feel confident when I go on stage now guys
I'm doing that birthday weekend
And the tickets are 25 bucks because they have to but I feel kind of weird
I'm not up to fucking par. I will be by that night. You know, once I touch the stage
Shit happens. I start talking. I get a joint in me. You know, we start fucking around but
No, I'm not I'm not a third of the comic. I was if you want me to be on
At least I feel that if you guys feel something different than you know, I appreciate it
But I don't feel I'm a third of the comic. I was I'm still clunky
Even in my writing I write every fucking day and especially the last three weeks. I have written more
I have thought of more fucking stories
By the way, I called my buddy mike robuck. We had a great talk in colorado
And we were talking about all those times and I met mike in 85
And we're gonna do a zoom in a couple of weeks
He's just trying to get his kid back in school and stuff in colorado because his wife is a teacher
We got on the phony and i mike robuck was one of those kids
I told you about that was my friends and aspen with carl
and vince hall when
Carl punched a guy in the head and a piece of meat flew out of his head and all this shit
Me and mike were on the phone the other day telling stories
I had a fire almost bent over. I almost had to take a painful. I was laughing so fucking hard
Just about things that we were doing up in colorado as kids and shit like that
But to get back to the original conversation. I don't even know how I got on mike robuck to get back on the original conversation
That's been the first time I've been with four friends
I mean joe rayo. I've known joe rayo. His father turned me on to marble bread
bobby bender I fucking his parents took me in when my mother died
Didi cardinelli. I knew her and her sister the mother fey
Listen to this the mother fey was the first milf
That I ever hit on that was the first that was my first me to attack back in 1979
She's like mercy's grandmother now
mercy loves fey
loves fey
Every time I go over that I feel so bad because I tried to make a move on fey when I was 15
When I was 16, I tried to make a move on fey and she still remembers and we still talk about it
We still giggle about but now she's an old woman. It's crazy how I go over there with my daughter
And my daughter disappears with fey. They just sit on the couch
They watch cartoons. My daughter explains the cartoons to fey
Fey fucking loves it. It's it's it's just a different world guys
So my wife asked me, what'd you you know, what'd you guys talk about? What'd you do?
I said, you know, we just drank water. We smoked a half a number, you know, shit like that
But I go
Terry it was just the point of being
With three people that I grew up with
You guys know I could have moved to austin. I could have just called joe in one minute
And I miss joe. I miss joe with all my heart. I miss red band, you know how much I love those guys
But I wanted to be home. It was I had done my time
I had done my I had done everything I had to do in LA
And right now, I mean if if there's nights I sit here going yeah, I'm gonna do comedy
I don't know what extent I'm gonna do it to or whatever. I was telling them yesterday at the table
And I said it I said I'd rather walk out on my feet
Than crawling on my knees
What does that mean that
After a year or two or not doing stand-up. I start going on stage and booking these
Fucking rooms and these agents are pushing you gotta charge 55 hours
And you're like guys i'm not worth 55 fucking dollars
You know, I don't want to have to go on stage and have to room walk out because I just don't have it anymore
And that's what I feel sometimes I feel like
My comedy window came and went I swear to god. I feel this
I swear to fucking god. It's just it's like anything
Anderson silver was a fucking great fighter
One day he broke his leg and he can't stop fucking losing
You know and some people stay around too long
And then you got to crawl out. I don't want a dog. I'm not known for fucking crawling out on my knees
So i'm not gonna gonna do it now. I like walking out of things
I like walking away from things on my fucking terms
Like the church like joey karate. I do shit like that all the time. I've been doing that since i'm a kid
Like cocaine once it's over
It's fucking over. That's it. There's no going back. There's no revisiting
There's no let's try it one more time for old times sake. It's over. It's over. That's it
Because if not, you'll be fucking haunted for the rest of your fucking life, you know
So it's just nice just to go down there
I got to sit in the front seat finally. I can sit in the front seat. I don't have to sit in the back with my leg propped up
People fucking looking at me like i'm driving miss daisy
My wife is driving me around in superwood. I'm sitting in the back seat
With my leg up. It feels like my groin's gonna pull. I'm good. We made it. It's been a month
It's today's a month since the fucking
Uh
Surgery, how do I look people? Do I look like the pills got to me? Was there a big fucking kahoot?
No
CBD line came through
ice came through
And the pain pills were the last things I thought about and I did this out of respect for you guys
Just to show you i'm sick and tired of hearing fucking excuses in life. Well, I had surgery and I got hooked
You have an option
You have an option. You know what last night was the first night I slept in the bed last night
When I woke up this morning. I had a pain in my fucking shin
That because I didn't know I didn't know what was going on because I had knee surgery
And then tom sagura called me one night
While he was doing physical therapy
With his physical therapist and we were talking and she was asking me about what I thought and I go my fucking leg is killing me
But it's not really my knee. It's my shin and she goes
Do you know why you shouldn't because they had to cut it and pound a new knee into it and told me all this shit
Just her telling me this shit gave me nausea. I'm like, I can't I can't even hear it no more
But even this morning I woke up because I slept on the bed
My shin was on fire. I came down. I drank my little yoga probiotic. I drank my fucking coffee
I had breakfast. I put ice on my leg. I popped two fucking high-level Tylenol and I got tons of pain pills
I'm just playing the hand
I can't wait to go back into his office next Monday and go. Here's your pain pills back
He's like, oh, you didn't take him I
You know, I got pissed off at him because they tell you to take two every four hours, but they give you eight
Oh
So what is that you it's two every four hours
So
There's 24 hours in a fucking day, right?
So there's two every two every four fucking hours. So what's that like fucking eight a day or something
Yeah, you know, whatever he but they give you like 13 of them. That's what I got every time I went there 13
11
17 you can't even start a party with this
Like I was gonna do like an oxy edible party. I can't even have throw a party
You know, I thought that the pain what first of all, I thought it was gonna be like any other surgery
It's painful for two days after that. You get rid of the fucking pills. You don't need them. I really that's
But there's only one surgery
That I fucking ate every pill from and I fucking suffered for that for a long time my shoulder surgery
I ate every fucking
Viking than that motherfucker and I'll tell you what guys a week later
For the first time in my life. I was thinking some creepy fucking things
When you read a whole prescription of viking and you start stinking some creepy fucking things
And don't think that like the second or third day of these pain pills
I did have creepy things going into my mind because I fucking did and that's why I worked that cbd line
Like a motherfucker you could take these and now if I need to take them I'll take them for
Physical therapy this last week. I've only taken physical therapy
That's it after physical therapy
And I take one little one and that's it. I don't take two. I'm trying to get the fuck off these
I'm trying to sweat this shit out of my system. I've been doing club bats lately dog. You know me dog
I don't fuck around guys. I try my hardest. I don't just I just listen
I don't want to just talk to talk for you guys. I want to walk to walk
So you guys could learn I could learn something we could all learn something together
I don't do this. I do this podcast. We could all learn something together
I learned from you and you learned from me and we learned from each other and we take care of each other
I make you laugh you guys make me giggle with messages from time to time so it all works out, you know
Sorry I had a little cotton mouth there for a second. I had a fucking
Drenched uh
Whatever but the topic I wanted to talk about this week
Was something that I didn't have that I wasn't good at
God either gives you this
What doesn't give you this this is a I think it's a talent
I think what I'm about to talk about is a talent
That you're gonna end up getting
You're gonna end up really
Being good at it if you want to get anywhere in life
But if you don't have it you're gonna have a tough fucking time in life and that's patience
And I'm not talking about the song from guns and roses. I'm talking about life's patient
There was nobody more impatient than me in this life
I was the most impatient person
And what I've been reading lately in the emails from people on patreon
You know on facebook, you know people send me emails from time to time joey
I'm getting into stand-up joey. I'm getting into this
The thing I read the most the the emotion that I get the most from
65 percent of the emails
That I read and this this is a lot
It's not a desperation emotion
You know what emotion I get
Impatient
Everybody wants something quick
We all do dog. That's why they invented the lottery
That's why they invented the lottery, but you know what the we know what the chances that you hit in the lottery are
They're fucking hard
But there's people who are very impatient
I was and it's weird because I had to think about this
I thought back to my youth how patient I was when I used to build models
I used to build models when I didn't know the language too good
I used to build models. That's what my thing was building models every day in the summer
I built a new model. I was good at it plane ships walls
Hokes, you know spider-man's the whole fucking thing. I did it with glue
You know the fucking paint glue whatever the fucking snorting glue
I did that shit and then somewhere along the line. I don't know what happened
Somewhere along the line. We all you know, I was I was
I was patient to play with gi joes and shit like that
But I never had the patience to play poker
Never had the patience to play monopoly
Never had the patience to for any of that shit, you know
So I I didn't look at it as a problem
I didn't look at it anything as at all. I just thought that I just didn't like something, you know
when uh
you know, you
Buy a car or whatever you buy a car you buy a car and you you broke you got to do the work on it yourself
You don't know what the fuck you're doing, you know, you have no idea what you're doing
And you and then all of a sudden you call Mike and I go Mike. I got to change the oh and Mike's like well
My brother could do for you, but you have to wait till tomorrow and I'm like, I can't wait till tomorrow
I'm gonna have to do it and then you end up doing it and you go to fucking loosen the thing underneath
And you use the wrong
wrench but the
The the ratchet
What whatever the fuck you use the ratchet set and the fucking thing gets stuck or you strip the fucking nut
And now it's a complete different stuff
That's because you were impatient if you were patient you would have waited for Mike's brother
I'm just using this as an example
But patience is the reason why half of us don't have careers
Think about that
Think about that
Half of the people that listen to this podcast half of the people that are walking around
Don't have a career that they want to
Because of patience
Think about it
Me my first choice
Was to be a guitar player
But what do you got to do? You got to learn how to play the guitar
You got to practice you got to put a band together
You got to make an album
You got to get signed
You got to put the album out then people got to listen to the album. That's a lot of steps. I ain't got that type of patience
You know what I'm saying? That's a lot of shit right there. That's you know what I'll let somebody else do that
So then your mind starts wondering what else can I do? Oh, well, I want to be an attorney. Oh, okay
Here we go again. You got to go to school every day. You got to get a's and b's
Then you got to get into a decent school
And get a's and b's and then you got to go to a law school, which is another fucking three years
I'm not doing that
Think about think about how many fucking think about
Look look
I'm 58 years old. I could have been fucking retired
20 years already
Have you ever thought about that?
I could have been retired already
Getting a pension
Full fucking medical benefits. I mean if I get a fucking hang nail
I'm the first in line
And I made the biggest mistake in my life
Not joining the service. How can you not join the service?
Are you fucking stupid?
It's 20 years. It's tough for two years
It's really tough for like a year. You got to do jumping jacks the basic training
And they spit on you and call you a piece of shit. You've seen all the movies
But once you get stationed and stuff
You know if you're single
If you play it right and you keep your mind right and you're single
And you do the first 10 years and eventually you meet a woman and you settle down and you buy a house
You can live on base
You could save fucking millions and then you come out of the service
If you join the service when you're 38 if you join when you're 18, what's 20 years?
30 fucking eight
Now you come out 38 with a pension
And you could do whatever the fuck you want
So you your pension's got to be huge especially if you retire as an officer
Think about it
Think about all the shit we passed on
Because of patience getting in the fucking way
Because I did it for years with a book now
Look it took a while
It took a while, but now i'm cooking with fucking gas
Now i'm cooking with gas. I've written two chapters. I just don't know where to put them
But I've written two chapters. You understand me?
I just don't know where to put them and I haven't sent them to the agent yet because I want to
Write one more to make it complete, but I'm right and that's all that fucking matters
But we don't have the patience
For to do anything like I didn't you know when I went to be a fucking electrician
Yeah, you're an electrician you could work but you're an apprentice. What does that mean? Apprentice means you're not gonna make no money
You know, it's it be right there. That's another thing any time you go to get a job. It's always
Well for the first five years you make you barely eat
And then we start paying you $80,000 a year and you're like, so I gotta wait five fucking years. Fuck that patience
If you really wanted to do that you go, you know what?
I'm moving with my mother
I'll rent a car. I'll do this
You do everything you do to figure it out to do that
But half the things I haven't done in my life. It's not because I was lazy or it's not because I was stupid
It's because I just didn't have the fucking patience
And that's just bullshit and I'll tell you I read your patreon guys
I read your facebook's I read your tweets
You know, I read your messages. You guys know I answer messages back
Even on patreon, they said if you don't pay the five dollars, you don't get your messages answered
I answer your messages, you know, if you ask me, I'll answer your your questions back
Especially the legit fucking question or legit problem. And that's the number one thing I run into
Is people think that they you know, some kid wrote me the uh, I swear to god. I've done three open my sets. What's next?
What's next? You know what next is?
Do number four and then do 500
Do a set every day
for five years
Then call me
Then call me
That's the best thing I could do for you
People of that impact and I didn't see
Because I'll tell you what guys I'm gonna be as honest I can which I always am on this fucking show
especially with my comedy
When I got to LA
I was impatient for about
90 days
That's the square business
I was impatient for about 90 days. I had already gotten into the store
So that took a lot of that
That calmed me down a little bit
But
It was my mentor at the time a great man resting pieces name is rick dukeman
He was in groundhog day. He played. He's the chubby guy in groundhog day
He did a bunch of bruce willis movies. Just a great guy
And I remember we were talking about something
We're talking about something and he said to me listen to me and listen to me straight
These things you're doing because I would call them up getting all excited like when I got to LA
I booked the pilot and then I think it was
After I shot the pilot I called them up
And I must have been tuned the fucked up or something
And he told me he's like listen man
Because I was in a rush, you know like I
I was there and I was making things happen
You know
Listen mitzi did
And didn't do me any favors by making me a regular right away
Okay, looking at it in hindsight
Uh
She did it was great. I I belong to be a regular all that stuff
But by her making me a regular
It also made me want other things
That I wasn't prepared to get
That and that's what happens to a lot of us. That's what every comic goes through that
That just didn't happen to me. You know, I still remember the first time
I was in the room in Denver, Colorado
I had come back from Jersey. It was 93
You know when I was doing I was starting to rock and roll. What's rock and roll?
I could do 20 minutes and have a good time, you know
I'm starting to rock and roll and fucking
One night I'm up on stage
And usually when it's you know
In a comics world before I go on stage, Mike is the host. He'll come up to me
And he'll go you're doing 15 minutes
When do you want to light and I'll go give me a light of 10
And if he gives me a light of 10 in my head, I could measure five minutes
You know I'm saying like I know
More or less with five minutes is
on this particular night
I didn't see a fucking light. I didn't see a fucking sign
You know people will laugh and people will have my good time
Then I started to slow down a little bit, you know
I didn't know what was happening and then finally I see the kid and he weighs me
And I get off the stage and people clap. I did okay, you know
And he came back to me and I don't know if it was I did 34 minutes or if I did 43 minutes
Again, I don't know. I don't remember it was a long time ago, but I did a lot more
Than what I fucking thought. Oh my god. You should have seen me on the way home. Oh my god
I was saying shit to my who I was making a list of my head of the people I was gonna call the next day
I'm calling this studio. I'm calling one of brothers
I mean I had done like 34 or 43. It was one of those two
Jimmy Abeta was the host. I just talked to jimmy two days ago, too
He's from 20 years. I still talked to the guy that helped me
With comedy and Denver the most jimmy abeta. He called me the other night to tell me
He was with some girl and the girl knew I don't fucking know
But jimmy abeta gets off jimmy abeta comes up like oh jimmy, where the fuck you been?
He goes out went on to the car to have sex with some girl. I'm sorry. I go. I'm up here 34 40 try
I didn't know he goes. You know, he told me you did fucking 34 minutes or 43 minutes. Listen when you've been doing
10 minute spots for fucking four years and all of a sudden somebody comes and says to you you did 34
Jesus christ as your ego get big for the first time in my life
I thought I was fucking don Rickles. I went home. I couldn't fucking sleep
I had a because I I told you you got to get a book called
stand-up comedy by judy brown
Jude isn't judy brown. Yeah, judy judy something judy Carter
It's stand-up comedy by judy. Do you have it?
Well, the back the back 10 pages has everything you'll need it has every number of every comedy club
every number of bookers
Big the big agencies the people who book ships
I think she used to have it in the old edition and I guys I still remember
waking up the next morning
and like calling like
I don't know who it was. I wish I could tell you
I don't know who it was and like going i'm joe dears
I did 43 minutes last night and they hung up on me, you know, they were like, what the fuck
but that you know
You're so fucking impatient
We can't wait to get to where we're going
And we don't and that's I gotta tell you something. That's what happened the last fucking 10 years to me
You know, I wasn't it wasn't that I was impatient the last 10 years
It was that things were moving so fast. I wasn't having time to enjoy them
Has that ever happened to you where things are going so fast?
That you don't even have a time to fucking enjoy them
Like I sold out two shows at the new york fucking theater
I didn't even have a chance to celebrate it
Like things are moving so fast. I couldn't even understand like I sold out this theater
Usually you take like a month off and you celebrate you have a great time and but life was moving so fast that
I wasn't even appreciating the things I was doing
you know and
This is why I hate
Like if you're gonna get into comedy if you're gonna get into any career and you want it to work for you
Patience has to be the number one priority on it. We talk a lot about goals
We talk a lot about journaling. We talk a lot about getting our fucking hands dirty and you know
Rolling up your sleeves the one thing we don't talk about enough is patience
Because without patience you won't hang in the fucking game
You will not hang in the fucking game and it's sad and if it was nobody else who had a heart nobody had it harder
than me when it came to patience
Because I just wanted it so bad the way we all we all want something so bad
We but we see ourselves there
We don't this is why when I tell you to do your goals
I want you to write them
So you're not there. I want you to see
All the dots that you have to connect to get to that place
The impatience is that we just see that
That's all we see we see
Comedy school
Blowjobs a fucking testarosa
Fucking that's all you see. I'm gonna have a big bank account. I'm gonna have a maid. I'm gonna have a butler
That's all you see, you know, I'm gonna have a big electrical company
I'm gonna have the biggest fishing company in the world. I'm gonna have the best restaurant in the world
But you never get to that because you didn't have the patience
You didn't have the patience to stick it out
You gotta have the patience to stick it out. That's why I love those fucking stories
About the bus boy who bought the restaurant
You know, I love those stories about the kid who
Went there to change tires and now he owns the fucking gas station
I love all those type of stories. I love my story. I love my story
I loved it. I love it that I was down and out
I love it that I was down and out and then I was even more down and out and then guess what and then
On top of being down and out. I went to fucking prison
I fucking loved it and then I got a fucking prison and I got married
And I got beat up by that too because I couldn't cover the spread because I was a fucking loser
And then without even fucking knowing, you know, I tried everything
I was smart enough to fucking do anything I wanted to do. I really was I was a fucking roofing estimator
I turned myself into a roofing estimator. Who the fuck
It becomes a roofing estimator with a fucking g ed
I did I didn't even know what the fuck I was doing. How the fuck do you even end up a roofing estimator?
I love my fucking story. And then I said fuck all this shit. This is bullshit. This work shit
I'm gonna try my hand at something that is fucking the hardest thing in the world
Because I don't give a fuck about me. I got no wife. I got no kid. I got nothing
I I had a wife and a kid, but they didn't fucking like me. So what's the fucking difference, you know, everything I touched was shit
What are my chances?
Of being a stand-up and being successful fucking zilch. So let's fucking go for it
Let's prove myself to fuck wrong and man. Let me tell you something. It was the first time my life
that I showed patience
because
I don't even know. I don't even know where the patience came from. I don't know if it was homegrown
I just knew myself
For me to succeed in this fucking business. I got to slow it down a notch
You know, I always have myself. I have my daily goals
My weekly goals and I have my six month goal, you know in LA. I was I was always in LA
Leaving in six months. I still remember shooting basketball and fucking
Torturing them
Like when am I gonna shoot like I didn't know the movie business. I had no idea what the movie business was
I didn't know was hurry up and wait
You know, that's what the movie business is. Hurry up and wait
The first movie you shoot you're either gonna like it or you're not gonna like it because
You might sit there for 13 hours
And they might come get you on the 13th hour and say come and say your line
You know what you feel like after 13 hours
You feel like you've been raped 13 13 fucking times
Now you want me to go same my fucking line
I've been sitting in a fucking room watching nature shows because you only got three fucking channels on your fucking cable system
In the fucking trailer
And now you want me to come and tell the fucking line your fuck
Are you fucking crazy? But that's what it is
And if you don't have that fucking patience, you know, how many great fucking comics I bumped into over the years
That if they would have had the patience
They would have been bigger than chappelle
What do you think? I don't know
I met tons of funny people out there
I met a guy one time in connecticut that I could not even look at he had me fucking rolling so hard
His fucking jokes and I would call him from time to time to check up on him, but he had no patience
He didn't want to do what I was doing. He didn't want to go through the system
He didn't want he wanted to be a fucking headliner
And anybody who got in his way was a fucking asshole or he's an asshole. He's an asshole. He's everybody was a fucking asshole
Except for him. Don't be that person
Don't be that person everything has its own time progression
You know, you start off as a fucking truck loader and you become a fucking truck driver. I don't know
I don't even know if it works that way
I'm just saying to you that
If it wasn't for patience, I wouldn't be here and I was the most impatient
Motherfucker the ever was
And I want to thank god that he gave me patience
And i'm taking this time to tell you guys on this podcast that if you want to have a career in something
Your patience has to be top fucking notch
Because if not, it's like you know how many people I talk to
Guys, I'm embarrassed to say this to you motherfuckers
Do you know how many people I've talked to?
That I've said to them, hey, man, you don't do your podcast no more and they're like it didn't get me anything
I didn't I didn't become a star
Do you think I did the podcast to become a star?
I did the podcast just to get it was just another form of art
It was just another art form
If I could do this for an hour, I could talk on stage for an hour
It's all it's all mixing in together
That's you know when you move to LA people come up to you and like oh if you do movies and commercials
You're not a real comic. You're a fucking moron
You're a fucking moron for even saying that
I know that bill hicks
Was pissed at Jay Leno for fucking
You know doing the Doritos commercials and all that shit, but let me tell you something
It all goes hand in hand and I in you. I'm gonna tell you what the worst thing is guys. I'm good at all of them
Would you see me on big city greens? That's a voice right I do voiceovers
I act I do stand up. I write you see me on tv
You see me in commercials. I do them all because they all go hand in fucking hand
They all go hand in hand
And it's like my friend rick duke him and said to me that
You know
Okay
for example
Mike goes on stage tonight
And he gets a standing ovation
Let's say he goes to philadelphia to the parks casino
And he gets a standing ovation tonight boat shows
And
Wednesday he goes for a movie
Right
And this happens and he doesn't get the movie
And he's calling me on the way back in his car. I'm his best friend. So he's venting to me
He said can you fucking believe
I just got two standing ovations at parks and I didn't get this shitty park in a fight this shitty part
In a fucking movie, you know, like
That's what happens
Everything you do that's a positive
Even though you don't think it's making a difference
It's making a difference
It's spinning
Okay, I did analyze
That the second one
Nobody saw the movie the movie ate a bag of dog shit
It happens. What do you want me to do jump off a building? You win some you lose some
Yeah
I did uh, you know analyze that
I did a bunch of these little movies taxi. I got one line in
Spider-man 2
I got one line in
Rodney danger field back by midnight
I got a couple days on that
You know, they weren't making any sense to me
So I called up rick duke and I go rick
The pilot this
I'm killing at the store, you know all this shit and nothing is happening for me
And he says that this all comes together in cultures
This all grows in cultures
He goes one day. This is all gonna weave together
You're gonna do something that's gonna weave this together
And then it becomes something and I'm like, what the fuck is this guy talking about, you know
I'm not a smart guy. What the fuck are you talking about?
Sure enough. I got the longest yard
You know
law and order sbu
Fucking uh
My name is her and then the writer strike came
2007 I quit coke. I did my last episode for my name is Earl December 2007. The writer strike came 2008
They picked it up after a while. I don't think I booked anything on 2008. I have to check
2009
I got married
I was doing some stand-up. I was I wasn't back at the store
I was doing stand-up with joe just joe and I was doing some weekends of my own
I bumped into billy gardell
before he got
The first show on cbs
And I remember that he was having a hard time
With the funny bones something
The funny bones made him an offer and now I was going through the same thing
I'll never forget that they called me one day and they said we have a bunch of rooms for you
But you have to do sunday to thursday
And I was like, okay, you know, I don't want to do them or whatever
so
What a lot of people really don't know is that I got out of count like I was like
I'm done with comedy. I'm quitting. I'm gonna
wait until
You know, I'm gonna wait until joe takes me on the road
And then with movies and tv
I'm just gonna
Wait till my friends call me and offer me roles or
You know, I had a lot of casting people that knew me that would just call me up and go joy
You want to read for this? I think you'd do a good job on this. I was really lucky in that form. So
I said, that's what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna quit comedy. I was gonna get a job
You know selling cars or whatever just stay at home with my wife. I I didn't see
My career growing, you know, I had already been in it
20 years I was coming up on 20 years
and
But I remember one day being in the main room and paul rejigas up on stage
Layed it out just destroying it
Just destroying the fucking room
And I walked in from the back and I
It was like a dead night. I didn't think and mitzi had her own booth
And as I walked past it I hear
Fat baby
And I go fuck and then she was you know mitzi was tiny
So if she was if she was in the booth with people you could see she was in the booth
But if she was in the booth by herself, you couldn't really see she was tiny
So I just heard fat baby and I went over and sat next to her
And I'm sitting there watching her paul rejigas kill
And I remember looking at her and she looked at me and she goes
Wait till you get to 20 years
And I was like 20 years
Fuck
I don't think I'll do comedy 20 years. You know, I don't think at that time. I was probably doing comedy
Maybe 10 years maybe 12 years 11 years around there
And she goes once you hit the 20 year mark
Things are really gonna change for you and all this shit. Well
I
started a podcast and
What rick dukeman told me
And what all the mentors I had told me was right
At the 20 year mark at the what just at a certain point left not even say the 20 year mark
Why did I even say that? I'm sorry
at a certain point
So once the podcast came
And
Not when I was doing the podcast with felicia but at one point with the church and through joe rogan
That whole thing
That whole blanket got put together
Now people were hitting me up going
We didn't know that was you in spider-man 2
We didn't know that was you in the longest yard
We didn't know that was you when the meatball king
We you know, we didn't know that was you, you know, it's so weird
That now people watch that and they'll hit me up immediately. We didn't know that you were mafia 3
We didn't know that you it becomes
A big fucking now
I got this resume and everybody knows what the resume is you just look at it and it's right there
But if I would have told you that I was gonna have this resume 15 years ago
Because I didn't have the fucking patience
patience
Patience is just as fucking important as the effort you're putting in
Because if you're not patient, you're gonna lose your mind and guess what?
I saw more fucking good comics leave LA
Because they were impatient
Didn't stay
I'm lucky that somewhere along the line. I found the patience and I saw the light
If not, I would have been one of those statistics
Don't let patience
Ruin your dream whatever dream you have
Don't let patience ruin your dream. You know how I
Let patience come into my life
By knowing I was doing my job
You won't have pay when do you have patience when you're not doing your job
When you're just
Playing three chords every day and telling your friends I can't wait to have my band
You know, that's when you're impatient when you're not doing your job
But when you're doing everything you can
To be that person
Your impatience will go away. You'll get patience because you know, you're moving in the right direction
But joey, how do I know I'm moving in the right direction? You'll know it when you're doing it
Do you think I knew what I was doing when I walked into the store and when I met joe?
And no, I had a job to do my job was to write comedy
Perform comedy and get on stage as much as I could
That's my job point blank range
Not fucking getting in people's business
Not being an advocate not being a political comic and none of that shit my job. What's that thing?
What's that movie she made eat pray love go fuck yourself
Get on stage write your jokes and fucking
Rehearsal whatever the fuck I said earlier get on stage
Write and do as many fucking senses you can and know that you're gonna fucking
Is it you only get impatient if you're not doing the job? You'll get patience
If you're doing everything you can to attain that goal
so
Sometimes we don't we work too much on the goals
Sometimes we work too much on the writing
Let's start working on the patience from now on
Patience is the big fucking motivator
Because without patience you're never gonna get to that fucking dream
And that's the monday morning podcast on february 8th a beautiful podcast on fucking patience
It's a beautiful day to be alive
So I figured I'd say this today because we've been talking a lot about karma
And all that shit all this snow has making me thinking making me think a lot about colorado
Which is good because it's helping me writing
In the book but when I was looking at the book the other day I was like Jesus christ
I can't believe that a month ago when I started talking about this on the podcast with these guys
I swear to god guys. I must have had
100 pages in the computer and I erased them all
Erased them all
Erased them
Erased them. I didn't want them around no more. I didn't want to read that shit no more
I didn't want to look at it no more. I was starting from fucking scratch. I erased the fucking the
The fucking x
Outline I had I did it all I got rid of everything and I started from scratch
So thanks to you guys for giving me this opportunity
But today I said I just want to talk about patience because I don't think we talk about it enough
And I don't think people have enough and I think people
Don't give themselves enough patience
To get to where they need to be and they quit and they forget about everything. I'm just really happy
That somewhere along the line patience came into my life
And I held it out and now I got the option to either
Keep doing what I'm doing at 30 years
Or move on to the next thing
Like I said, I don't know how I feel right now. I feel like
Comedy just might be a hobby for the rest of my life. Just
Pick a club do a couple nights a month
but you never know
something might fucking
Spike me up the ass and I'm back on the road doing weeks. It's not going to be anytime soon
But it'll be in time and I'll let time figure it out. We still got the summer
But uh, all I know for now is february 19th and 20th
Uncle Vinnie's comedy club. Thank you very much for listening to the podcast today
It's a fucking snowy fucking week here in jersey. We got about six inches yesterday
So, uh, me and mike had a work hard last night to put this together
For a monday morning. I love you motherfuckers. Thank you very much for always, uh watching this. Oh, I want to thank
Sure for sending us a beautiful new microphone
I told you motherfuckers
I didn't want to start the podcast in a way
And i'm told because I wasn't ready
But I had no choice. I had to be ready
I forced myself to do this every week even though it wasn't going to be the same podcast
Even though a lot of yous wasn't going to be happy
That's not my problem
My problem is that I had to be happy and I had to keep pushing forward
The only situation we had was because of the pandemic
We couldn't get a lot of the things that we wanted. So a lot of people got pissed off. Well, you said you were gonna use a bar
I'm getting rid of that bar. I told you that right? Yeah, we're getting rid of that bar. That's yeah
We're getting rid of that bar because we don't drink
We don't really drink it's I was gonna do a podcast at the bar
I'm gonna stock a bar and then after living down here for three weeks with the fucked up leg. I realized that
It's a fucking clunk
I could take that out of there and put like a microwave and a counter
And you know
Make him what's going to be a fucking family room anyway, you know, like I said, he is in the beginning
This was all temporary and
We also got a picture of the legendary
chance
Dragon mother fucking in
So you can't talk shit now no more. We got everything covered. We got chance
We got ac dc. We got sister heist
We got Charles Bronson. We got Sydney Monkreef
But who gives a fuck so I want to thank sure for sending us the microphone
Mike was also getting us some new cameras
They finally fucking came so we could finally add some dimension to this
Like I said to your people
