The church what's happening now You bad motherfuckers my main man Lisa at with the Israeli flag-throwing heat back there And this main man guest tonight. Mr. Sammy trips. What up you bad motherfuckers. What's the word Joey Diaz?
Starting point is 00:02:59 You know, Johannes bring it back to the old days old school early 80s. I'm telling you that stuff I don't know what happened to that to that list. I heard that on Sirius Something what's your channel? I like back back spin. No, I'm What was your vinyl vinyl vinyl's good Ozzy's Boneyard Like a lithium lithium is badass lithium is badass. Yo, let me ask you good you I would argue that the Late 80s early 90s time of music. I would put that up against almost any decade of music You know, everyone loves the 60s and 70s saying that that was the best time
Starting point is 00:03:39 But man, you look at what happened in the late 80s early 90s hip-hop rap rap was hip-hop was starting to come in Metal all the metal is still rocking grunge was starting to come in Everything was like at this apex of music in my opinion You still got to go with 70 to 75 like who we why who we up against you up against Led Zeppelin's first time Okay, who you up against the stones you got to figure from 70 to 75 All these bands black Sabbaths first down all these bands were emerging not to mention a guy by the name of Elton John That destroyed the 70s So that no, I'm not arguing with you that that it like crushes it or anything
Starting point is 00:04:22 I just feel that that time period if you look at the bands that were out, you know, God knows what would have happened If Lenard skin it would have lived I've always said that if Lenard skin it would have lived What would happen with the cars exist? Would any of that shit because Lenard skin it was just about to destroy to steamroll Steamroll steamroll they had the momentum they party they fucking had black people in the band Yeah, they fucking had two drummers, you know, it was a different time They had destroyed the stones at in London. Yeah, they opened up for them stone buried them in their backyard They had buried somebody else now they were on the road. I think with Ted Nugent just taking them to the cleaners
Starting point is 00:05:07 They were just a power So who knows who knows I can't and that's the late. That's 77, right? Yeah I don't know what the name of the eye. I forget all this shit is just too much You know, we did a couple gummies today, mainly we did achieve but you at the end your memory goes to put We can't do it no more. So I might say something fucked up, but that's my only real argument I didn't take the 60s that much There's a 60s like Hendricks, right Hendricks the Beatles the Beatles So that's a you know for death. Yeah, the last couple of anybody catch. I know you or is I know you caught it
Starting point is 00:05:42 Have you seen the documentary on HBO and James Brown? No, I haven't seen that. No, you guys gotta it's all over He came out as a he was a little Richard impersonators at first little Richard hit So they put him on the road to fill in 33 of his dates or something. It's amazing James Brown is amazing the hardest working man in show business that movie. They just did was really great Yeah, no, no, but this documentary is fucking tremendous and the guy who played that in that movie plays like every black guy Yeah, he's just in Marvel. Yeah, he's just got the Marvel thing. Oh, Jackie Robinson. Oh, that's cool Yeah, he was Jackie Robinson Who else always brown James Brown now who is now he's something the black panther
Starting point is 00:06:23 Okay, cuz I hate when they take like an established character and flip them and like make him something else that he isn't is that the black But is it correct? No black. I think it's probably the black panther But like they made the Green Horton gay now I think the new Batman movie Robin is a chick, you know, I just like come on man Those buses that making them all women and the fact is definitely in it McCarthy. Yeah. Yeah, she's fun. Yeah He's black panther how did that movie do with him and and St. Vane St. Vincent. Yeah, I'm not sure I mean Simone said he liked it But I haven't known likes everything. I died a slow death people were red red right through it
Starting point is 00:07:07 I read right through it. I just knew that we're getting two people put them together Let's see if this works out. Oh, was that what Bill Murray the Bill Murray one? Well, she just did a movie with her husband, right? I don't know so she's on fire, too Who'd she do a movie her husband wrote a movie? I was a movie where she played like the super drunk chick who drives her own drunk. I don't even know. Oh Tammy yeah, I don't know. I didn't even see that this did it's grossed 27 million and so far and it's it was 13 million So it's done. Okay, but like opening weekend it did just over a hundred thousand dollars. So who what?
Starting point is 00:07:43 Yeah, it's tough. Who did a hundred thousand same Vincent, but I mean that might have been Murray that might have been a limited release I don't know, but it's so what your house maybe but so far It's grossed 27 million. So wow well That's pretty good to start out with a hundred thousand and then get to 27 million, but they cost 13 million to make right So, I mean it wasn't they made money. Yeah, they made money. Yeah. Yeah I mean you think the pale would I thought it would make 65 million But then I won't start a watch in the trailer. I'm like I guarantee this is the best part of the movie Yeah, and the trailer is not that fucking good
Starting point is 00:08:15 Well, I don't know if people are younger than me maybe like 20 a bit like what younger than 2018 I don't know if they really know who Bill Murray is to be honest That's might be true caddy Shaq was always known as that guy who shows up on Gawker and takes pictures at random places And weddings and karaoke bars and stuff like that And he was in a zombie land which is pretty great But still I mean that you had to really know who Bill Murray was to like get it. That was a great movie Yeah, zombie land brought to heat. It's really weird how You think somebody's relevant
Starting point is 00:08:46 Because you were there during his heyday. Yeah, that shocks you like even like Stallone De Niro not drawing There's so many people that just don't draw. Yeah, you know the movies come out Like for that movie people probably went to see it because Kevin Hart wasn't it to be honest I mean if that's probably what was the biggest draw at this point, which is pretty sad I think he might be the biggest draw right now. Well, he has a movie in four months, but Sandra Bullock I mean, they're both like to not not there's not a lot of bankable people out there You know, but what they do now is completely different the marketing even the the agencies even your manager Okay, when I was growing up the first movie I saw what Eddie Murphy was 48 hours
Starting point is 00:09:27 And then it took another year for him to come out with a movie Which is called trade-in-place. That was a great movie and then you know and then but now it seems like People released seven or eight movies in the year. It's like they killed Vince Vaughan. Yeah That was embarrassing what they did with Vince Vaughan people like the guy from no man. No old country What's no country for old man? What's the guy's the main? Bronson isn't it brought wasn't it Bronson? There was a guy that was a guy that was a guy Josh Bro, no, I liked him But there's a guy in that movie that for two or three years they put him in everything
Starting point is 00:10:01 Have your bar down. No the cop there the Southern cop that was chasing him Woody Harrelson Tommy Lee Jones Tommy Lee Jones. Oh, yeah, there was a while when they put Tommy Lee Jones Me I would have to one One and a half movie like one movie you're relieved and then a half a year later You come on as like the fifth guy through a little heat get killed and people like Jesus, man Why'd he fucking get killed even you follow me? So you always kept people Wanting you now if a person makes a movie they get right back in the studio and shoot it
Starting point is 00:10:34 You know and it's funny like that creep like Jim Carrey now like he didn't want to do dumb and dumb But things got fucking bad for yeah, so now he did dumb and dumb But what a fucking scumbag for 20 years they kept bugging him about dumb and dumb and refused to do it Once he stopped selling tickets because you you're right, you know these people to become irrelevant after a while as great as they are That's great as they are Tom Cruise still sells tickets, right? Not like he used to though Yeah, probably not but he doesn't do him. He doesn't do it that often though. So what I mean that last mission possible I didn't like it, but Pete it sold a lot tickets. I think TMZ I think something changed when TMZ kind of started really like outing him on a bunch of stuff like him
Starting point is 00:11:15 You know the the whole Scientology like video they put out of him Then he's dancing on the couch like I think they heard him now So I feel that like they went some big powerful company went and bought TMZ and the message has totally changed You don't see them ever really going after really huge huge stars That's why they kind of create these vine stars and these reality stars that they kind of treat like fucking Pinatas and they beat the shit out of them so they don't ruin a brand like how hard is it to build a Tom Cruise brand? You've been out here forever. It's impossible to build so in that big that it will bring like 50 mil guaranteed That's true
Starting point is 00:11:52 So like they don't want to ruin those guys anymore So they so they bought the company and now they just hey Oh my god, look at this chick from VH1's fucking hip hip hop and love or whatever it is And they just treat those people like pinatas that'd be really funny if that was true I mean now that you're saying it kind of makes sense. Why not and they don't really need to pay reality stars Yeah, so they pay them a little bit. They think they're famous and then they can Treat them like skin like like awful people and then the movie stars kind of skate by it's crazy that You do like a reality show for four years and you do become a big shot
Starting point is 00:12:27 You go you bump people in Vegas at lines. Yeah, you yell at waiters now get off me, you know, don't make eye contact Yeah, you know, and it's like for Noah for nothing because she's standing from a Camera I couldn't imagine getting that over one with yourself like that Like that's when you see people like Screech is still doing calm and he still took yelling at people and shit That was 30 fucking years ago and you're still yelling at people telling people doing everybody's cocaine There any stories of him like people like hey, man, you want to do some blows again He's like, can I have something he'll do all their blow and come back to like where's the rest of blows? I'm sorry. I did it all. I'm like, who does everybody's blow
Starting point is 00:13:12 That's fucking nuts That's crazy. He's though. He did sex tapes. He did everything he could to get back Celebrity rehab celebrity fitness He did everything he could to get back there and he just kept looking, you know, just looking worse than worse It was like Paulie for a while. Yeah for a while Paulie and now, you know When you see Paulie you can see he's matured. Yeah, just he knows this is that's it You have your green light and you do the best you can with it and you move the fuck on It's when you try to hold on to it. I haven't you know the redhead from Goodfellas the one that Henry Hill
Starting point is 00:13:49 It's his mistress. She had maybe three scenes. They called her a whore. Oh, yeah on the couch I went to a table read once had to be oh my god 15 years ago on sunset Boulevard They had water a bunch of white people and she was there Marlenda. I was there I can't I don't know if there was there was just a really good script. They had it The guy saw me at the store. He said there's a part for like a fucking jab I want you to read, you know, and I wouldn't I didn't know anything about table reads guys I just sat there like a fucking morning and talked to nobody but I was always in shock on how she acted She dressed up like she was going to a fucking
Starting point is 00:14:28 Like a ball like a ball with a mink and She had heels on how she came in and people like looked at her. We like it was completely fucking crazy I'm inappropriate. Would you overkill overkill overkill overkill for what you had done Since then, you know, like just what must be kind of crazy I mean you've talked about how some comedians get babyed or pampered. I mean if for like That biggest movie came out like you you had it with the longest yard Like people doing everything for you telling you how amazing you are if that happens on a reality show for 10 years You must just kind of get used to it like friggin
Starting point is 00:15:06 Justin Bieber went into like the Pittsburgh Steelers Bible study this past weekend like that kid just must he I don't think he even Realizes what he's doing. No, he doesn't yeah, he's got too big I mean when your parents are on the payroll who tell who put you in your place But would you do anything different than him Joe? It's seriously at 22. No, I would even be crazy banging everything Yeah, you just punch everybody at 21 somebody to give you $50 million and I'm doing you any favors But here's where it gets that the hardest. It's to be it's not what happens to you in the money They give you it's the people that are around you It's the people that are around you
Starting point is 00:15:44 They're the most important thing in those situations and who you keep around you Whether you want people to tell you you're the best or if you're smart enough to keep one motherfucker around they'll go Hey, man, what the fuck guy and you're like you're right, you know, that's the difference He has nobody around them that gives a fuck It's like Britney Spears used to go and then they realize it and it's not too late He'll be okay Eventually, but everybody will fucking hate him by that. That's the problem with that little fuck He was gonna get beat up. He's gonna get stabbed on Sunset, you know shit like that
Starting point is 00:16:16 Somebody's gonna hit him with a two by four when he's 42, you know, but It was all his behavior the last couple years how he acted towards people and everybody he gets close to I Don't know. He hangs out with the weirdest fucking people to either make myself look stronger I don't know. He's with the boxer all the time, right? Yeah, Floyd made me whether who else does he hang out with to be cool Every rapper possible. He'd love to show up with rappers I just think it's like he's like almost like a hot chick in that like a chick It's so hot only crazy guys are Have enough courage to actually hit on them so they end up dating crazy people and I think that's probably what happens with them
Starting point is 00:16:56 He's such a huge star that it takes a really crazy person to try to even approach him to be like Hey, let's be friends like only crazy people go for and then he's letting these people in and they're all nuts He hangs out with Chris Brown. Oh really? He hangs out with any you know He hangs out with he just keeps these fucking wackadoos around them and they fuel his fire and that's like I said I can't imagine being 21 and being out here being on a TV show and doing blow how I did and going out at nights of These clubs, but that was never me anyway But I'm just saying let's say if you weren't to going out every night and people opening up doors and well You've talked about that you used to be mad at your stepfather for not giving you any money when your mom passed away
Starting point is 00:17:39 And like how if you if he had it would have probably killed you it would have killed me It would have killed me I don't know how I would and I but I wouldn't have been like that that was never my Thing to go out for people to see you and hang out and stand on line. I just fucking hate that shit Whatever anti-paranoia package I had I can't do that. I don't want to do that. I don't want to be seen I don't want people talking to me at night when I'm you know, so that shit never worked out for me when you're stoned When you're stoned and you have your feet up and you have a
Starting point is 00:18:14 Walkman slash iPod Slash whatever the fuck to people listen to what is it? I whatever the fuck it is the thing I have on the plane iPod iPod, you know, when you're stoned and you have and you're in the middle of fucking Pink Floyd animals Do you really want anybody talking to you? I don't give a fuck if if if Tom Brady's wife comes in front of be naked If I'm stoned, I'm into that groove your history around me. I don't know you talking to me Why do you think I put music on the car? I don't know why you think I there's no
Starting point is 00:18:49 When there's a good song in the car going on in the car your conversation does not matter, right? Yeah, that's the way I was raised. I don't know what the fuck my wife will talk over music. I'll tell her stop You're in no danger. There's nothing you want to say. That's better than this fucking pink Floyd right now That's always been my thing when I was a kid. I could go into the bedroom Smoke outside wait till my mother left. I would go upstairs locked up thing and I've always been a near phone guy You know why I'll tell you why brings you into it. It brings me into it, but guess what else? I don't want you listen to my music and something else. I don't want to hear your fucking music Let's cut a deal get the fucking earphones on and put them on
Starting point is 00:19:31 I like my music fucking loud and I wanted heavy and you follow me. Yeah, so what makes you think I? Want to hear any fucking stupidity at any time When I'm stoned to the gill and I put that I put on I'm walking down the street when I'm in a weird town I love it When I'm in a town that I don't live on that's the best happiness that you'll ever get out of me Is the music's blasting when I use and I'm walking around and I'm not in touch with anything I'm just in touch with thoughts and that fucking music playing so that's as good as it gets for me And you don't need a million dollars
Starting point is 00:20:05 That's why I like like driving to Vegas. I love Four hours I could fly and it's simple But the drive is like four hours of just by yourself and your thoughts just go crazy And it's like cuz LA's constantly An attack on your senses no matter where you are stop and go. Yeah Beeping hot chicks walking by there's no way of focusing, but man go to Vegas. It's just Yeah, I did it when you went to tempi earlier this year I could have got a plane ticket for like 150
Starting point is 00:20:37 But especially when you get out like out into the desert that you don't have to stop. I loved it That's where that's my first found podcast. I was driving out here from Boston and When you get too far into them into the middle of the country, it's just like preachers actually preaching Yeah, it's weird. Nothing really else. So that's what podcasts are made for. I'm really really fortunate That I never really like that shit and other people I surrounded myself like that shit And after a while, even if you have friends that like a nightlife After a while you won't be friends no because you don't do what they like right you gravitate towards so they disappear But I've always gravitated towards people that
Starting point is 00:21:18 They're not bar people. I've always liked people that very satisfied with going to a restaurant All of us and just talking about comedy till six in the morning. That has always been a lot better for me I can't stand talking over music And I can't stand people talking to me up close and I can't stand when when you're stoned somebody's drunk And they're trying to tell you something. It's two different wave lengths Vibrations and it's very rough. So it didn't match. So I knew that early on Was that hard getting coped then because you've talked about going to a lot of clubs and bars for that So I had a gift of slipping in
Starting point is 00:21:54 Slipping out and hold on. I got to go see a guy outside I always had a certain gift of having a hook you can't go into one of those places Unless you have a hook you do have an ability to get out You have to get out this guy don't have to learn how to get out get out quick And you have to lie and go whatever the fuck it takes but you got to go You got a rock in your pocket. It's you're hot if a cop comes into something you got a rock in your pocket I will get a bump or this little bump and do a couple bumps And then I'll sit at a bar for a couple minutes, but while that rock is in my pocket
Starting point is 00:22:28 I don't like sitting at no fucking bar and it became even worse once I got the felony Because now I got nowhere to go. You got me with drugs. I'm doing time So I don't want to sit there sitting there with a rock in my pocket I was always the king of hiding it somewhere Going in there and banging a little bit giving myself room So if a cop did come in it came out of my pocket. I dropped a half gram of blown a pocket It's a it's 60 people you can't pin it on me, bitch Or you could go make a cocktail like Popeye Doyle did and motherfucking whatever the French connection
Starting point is 00:22:59 We were talking about that before the podcast is like if you're scared when you travel with weed When you had when you were in probation right out of jail, was it terrifying doing drugs? It just didn't matter like you just wanted to do the drugs. I Tiptoed my way around the drugs, but I wasn't stupid Even though I always did drugs Sam Tripoli wasn't gonna come up to me and go hey, man You have a great blow. I have a friend that wants to buy two ounces. That's where the conversation ended. I Never took a drug bust. I never took a drug bust I took a bus for smoking weed on the street of Manhattan in
Starting point is 00:23:35 1982 and I took a probation read but I never took the sales or possession rap for blow It's on my record that I took that I got arrested for blowing New York But I was also doing county jail in Seattle at the time somebody used my ID So if they ever I was doing like 11 days in Seattle on County jail That's when they arrested somebody used my name in Jersey. I know who it is But I never took I was never that dumb to make those mistakes. I always smelled drug traps But not even that but just even buying it and doing no because again I knew exactly I have my route planned. I know what time I'm going there before I go there
Starting point is 00:24:15 I take two rides around the block and see if there's cops anywhere if they're sitting still to make a bus I don't want to walk into a bust. I Always knew I always since a young kid since I was a young kid My mom had those bookie things in the city. So I knew how a bus gets Organized I know it starts four blocks away. There's a command post so I know all these things So that's what you look for. So what's let's say you moved to LA and you're still doing coke You've never been here before what process do you go through to find a dealer who's not an undercover cop comedy store? Yeah, so maybe LA is a bad idea. Let's pretend it's a city that doesn't have a comedy store go right to a comedy club
Starting point is 00:24:53 If there isn't I had a particular gift That I could go anywhere and within three hours. I could have somebody at a bar Ready to rock just by certain words. Just go to a bar get a drink what's happening What's going on bubble boom boom boom boom and all of a sudden you'll see it you'll see if you sit there long enough You'll see people coming out of the bath. I'm not talking about the shame arm. I'm not talking about the you know Club fire in your hometown You all guys all know what a drug bar looks like when a drug bar doesn't look like it doesn't take a fucking genius You go into a drug bar and people have nice shirts and I drug bar you go into a bar
Starting point is 00:25:32 And they still have a leather-skinned shirt and they're missing a tooth and they're dripping their noses dripping their plain darts and They're your home. Yeah, you'll get something you'll leave there with a gun gunpowder Fucking angel dust People still do an angel dust. I Don't know Last night I got stuck seeing I was trying to make notes I was trying to you know, write like a biography
Starting point is 00:25:58 For the web page and do and I had drugs ink on and they were talking about heroin drugs ink is very interesting Cuz I don't know anything about anything But to see them watch met and what's going on up in the Pacific Northwest like Portland in Seattle The heroin is rampant like it's all all the crime is in white neighborhoods like fucking it's it's crazy A lot like the crack epidemic in the black community in the 80s and to the point where I honestly believe That there's powers that be that are behind this huge heroin epidemic that's going on with So, you know, you hear stuff going on Afghanistan. We're like US forces are protecting poppy fields and shit like that You're like, okay, you know crack was black in the 80s and heroin
Starting point is 00:26:46 I think it's like it's the same thing going on within the white community. It's gone crazy Everybody knows that the 9-11 when we attacked I forget right now. I've got a stand That everyone prices went down. Did they really? Yeah, everyone prices went down more Everyone came into the country, you know, if you go to Dearborn, Michigan, all that area. That's a very big Arab community And I heard that heroin was rampant in the Detroit area. I mean Detroit is fucking non-existent guys It's on his last legs. I know they got a couple grants or something. The shit's going on But the heroin was deep there, you know, I know a new work the heroin was deep my buddy Oh deed on a $7 bag used to send them to me. Yeah, dude, $7 bags of heroin. I've lost a couple friends
Starting point is 00:27:35 seven dollars seven dollars So for $7 mean you're right now could go with two fucking bags for a $20 bill of Pretty fucking good heroin. How long does it take to go from like weed to heroin? I can't imagine one day one right after this podcast No, but like a normal person, you know, it's it's whatever I can't imagine shooting my mangle you go Listen the first time I went behind a building or church or whatever to take two hits off of fucking joint. I Was anti everything I was anti-powder. I was anti-acid
Starting point is 00:28:13 But once I smoked pot and heard music Because of my love for music my friends told me it only gets better You gotta fucking do this acid. Oh And I remember doing a half a sheet and doing acid and listen to a dark side of the moon Run whatever on the run and just having like a heart attack in bed like and then I like that I really enjoyed that And then I would do THC crystal, which is let's get the fucking
Starting point is 00:28:43 Let's get that whatever out of the room. It's it's it's it's it's angel dust But angel does that's different than crystal math completely What's the difference crystal met you're gonna scratch and stay up the fucking 14 fucking days I Angel dust is what is angel dust animal tranquilizers gorilla biscuits They had 20,000 names for it, but at the end of the week, it was animal tranquilizer mixed with something else There was a certain age I had that there was two things that were very popular It was angel dust and formaldehyde. Oh
Starting point is 00:29:23 Okay, so I think they use one dead bodies. Oh, you would get fucked Upjack, yeah, they did they dip weed in you dip a joint a weed in formaldehyde those joints used to go for 20 bucks in 1980 Whoa, and as soon as you got that shit a lot of money like as soon as you put it in your wrapper here As soon as you it was it smelled it's it was dirty like you didn't even want to touch it You put that in your mouth, but you took that joint up and you fucking lit it. Oh my god six people Blast it. What does it feel like? How's it just a normal weed? Okay, I'm gonna tell you what I used to do. I Used to have this buddy Carlos Perez. This is my beginning. This is my
Starting point is 00:30:07 This was a little before my mother died. I Did t8s t8c crystal. That's what they sold it to us as And we used to have to go to Union City and buy it to this bar on 22nd and New York Avenue across from Liebeschlem Funeral Park is still there which in reality was the County morgue So that's how fucking like that's how bad of a sign it was So first I used to get it up 39 string you get it and you for $10 you got three lines so for $3 at 14 and a half 15
Starting point is 00:30:42 Me you and fuck over here got blasted. So what did it feel like? It felt like doing tranquil. I felt like doing heavy sleeping pills, but you stay awake Fuelled you and everything moved real fast So the first nonce of twice we did it we would stay at the basketball court And then you walk up to the fucking Chinese store at the time we called the chink store We'd walk up to the chink store and then we'd walk home and it lasted you know the heavy heavy intense feeling was about three or four hours and Then I thought you had about four hours of these days that you communicate you go and talk to your mom and shit
Starting point is 00:31:23 So as you kept in your room and didn't get asked big questions the Declaration of Independence or something you were covered But we took it a little farther. We started taking it and going into the city Here we are 15 year old kids Doing a $10 bag between three of us and getting on a bus and going to 42nd Street Getting off that fucking bus walking on 42nd Street. What's your time square time square and hearing people yelling acid marijuana? You know, whatever cocaine and switch blades and then we'd go and we play we got caught We play three card Monty, but this is when it gets crazy guys This is when it gets the crazies. It would be like six of us Sabatino Ray Cannella who we had lunch with today
Starting point is 00:32:14 Phillips Michael speciale Dominic speciale myself Carlos Perez could be seven or eight of us and we go into the city and say to each other Trips, it's five o'clock at 6 30. I'll meet you on 178th Street and Broadway by the Port Authority So we would disappear and go our own ways and Walk through the city by yourself likes no like three of us Oh of them and and then I lose lead, but we all knew we had to be on a hundred seventy eight Street and that became something else and
Starting point is 00:32:50 Then I did that until I got the lung infection From the Paraclete from the Paraclete that summer of 79. I was fucking every three or four days We were hitting that motherfucking THC crystal and that became an acid addiction so after I got like when I got out of The doc when I got out of the hospital September 28th That became because I was scared it was gonna sit in my lungs the powder From the thing with infect the Paraclete so I stopped snorting THC and I got into my acid addiction But I was into that angel dust for a couple of months then it stopped but in New York City
Starting point is 00:33:31 It was rampant again in the mid-80s So you would go into the city and you would go to like anywhere from a hundred and 16th Up to like a hundred and 19th Street on 3rd Avenue with the with the Puerto Rican neighborhoods are all that stuff And you would never black neighborhoods. Oh you kid and I would Meet people who sold nickel bags when dime bags of chocolate tie weed, but they also sold trays of that angel dust And basically a tray is a half a gram that you sprinkle on your joint And then you rolled your joint and hit it so I went over there and I can't I went over there a couple times and People always go dog add that tray that motherfucker. The tray was like the super size

I felt bad because he didn't have chops Okay, he didn't have chops you could go to ITT tech and you're probably gonna be a good mechanic And you're gonna get a good education that but unless You work at your father's gas station and take garbage out and get coffee and quarter parts and there's a different Zen to that There's a different Zen to that There's a thing called Gracie combatives where you go when you learn moves, but you don't really wrestle

He was dirty You're gonna make up an excuse and you're gonna tell your agent he talked to the crowd, you know, whatever fucking mind fuck you You'd be surprised the mind fuck they tell themselves and then you're gonna watch Nick the Apollo go up there and Whatever Nick whatever he did to the room Nick the Apollo's gonna take that room and sandwich it now Spit on that piss on that light and on fire Because it's 20 years of experience and you're not gonna be a murder with your four years at IO
Starting point is 00:58:42 Well, I was in college. I was at IO and I was the most likely to succeed at improv West That's not gonna cut it. That's not gonna cut it and I knew that I knew I had come off for six years of working hard Doing triple runs Mormon rooms where they switch up the rules on you Seattle, you know, Portland the Tri-Cities. I was I was bombing in Colorado for two years When I got down way, I thought first off you lose 10 minutes from your area jokes Yeah, because if you move from Arizona those jokes aren't gonna work in the main at first you say him and you learn the hardware You're like, yeah, so the judge in Arizona like this is Los Angeles, bitch We don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

I'm very blessed some bookers Like me, but there's some bookers that just have just weird things and it's such an interesting thing to see a booker Who acts like they decide everything and they pay? Oh, I don't like him out like that and I'm like, you know, man I'm just gonna wait it out because in two years. You'll probably be gone. Most likely if you're calm being like that Exit out these people only letting these people eventually it's gonna catch up with you and you're gone gone Sometimes you get some good people like Molly from the punchline has been around for a while. She's funny and she's cool She seems to let a wide range of people play those clubs
Starting point is 01:00:10 But I've met these fucking dickhead fucking these bookers on there Who just have like a certain view of comedy and if you don't fit into that you never get to work their club? And I'm just like I'll just wait two years. You'll be gone and then the next person will fucking let me in I've seen it happen a thousand times before it's just an interesting thing when somebody's a booker There's a lot of power, but once that's gone. That's power. It's all gone. It's just gone Nothing you got no tangible skill, you know, which like if you if I say you can never play this club again That's fine. You got skills. You go play another club and make magic happen. It's just such an interesting thing It's such a power play that is so fleeting. I remember there was a couple of bookers
Starting point is 01:00:54 They used to talk shit about Joe bringing me and Ari on the road And I remember like I busted ones balls in San Francisco. He doesn't exist It's amazing the people and I gotta tell you something. I've never had respect for Authority just Especially in a semi corporate because right now it's very corporate no matter what you get into when I was starting comedy And I was looking for a job. It was still semi corporate, you know, and I've never had respect for a lot of that level I don't know why I just never did because we're the ones that are out there busting our arms And you're walking around a suit and people fear you know what when Joe comes in make sure you you send a computer. It's so
Starting point is 01:01:38 Typical how they act it's fake. It's fake. It's so typical when we put this fake fear up. That's what I hate it I don't fear anybody feel myself now. I fear myself if I don't write or if I don't fucking whatever But it's in that work thing you get this fear and these guys These bookers had that same like I'm better than everybody here. Yeah, we're right and comics give them coffee and then They're very cool and and they all disappeared, you know mark batter was doing a great job in Houston He became the end all be all he's gone You know these guys come and go Sarah and I was one of the Tommy one of the biggest wenches you ever Met in your life. She was Cleveland and Buffalo and Miami improv
Starting point is 01:02:26 So she would run you through the mill She'd give you if she didn't like you should give you a buffalo and Cleveland in January back to back And then she'd go call me for Miami and she wouldn't take your calls for a year Then she tried to give you a buffalo and you'd have to stick up for yourself and go Hey, what happened to that Miami day? And she'd give it to you. It was amazing how she treated me and I'll never forget those people like I never ever forgotten them And I wish that they turned the TV on and saw me by mistake or something Not that I was better than them, but I did some with myself. We're fucking late now
Starting point is 01:03:02 That's what I'm saying. They're selling real estate now. Yeah sucking somebody's dick, you know, they're not doing none creatively with their life I've never understood how non creative people could judge creative people. Well, that's this whole town That's the fucking thing. There's a big difference when you Be in a creative person and understanding the genre that's going on Then you go to Emerson College and I told you that when we hooked up I said that to you and you looked at me with the camera. I go I don't want you using the same shit. They taught you at Emerson College. No disrespect I want you to use what you want to use. I said, let's use something that we don't look like what everybody else is doing
Starting point is 01:03:42 I don't give a fuck if you need the romantic Interest in the film to make it happen if the film doesn't call for a romantic interest It just makes the film clunky. Your formula is not gonna work forever Now take an example with John and we're all gonna agree on it podcasting Yeah podcasting if you're a manager today or an agent I come to you and I go I'm not going in for an audition My podcast is on fire. They don't understand They don't understand that that this catches on daily. This is something that people are sick and tired of hearing
Starting point is 01:04:20 Bullshit that's how they're hearing the weather when they don't want to hear it. We have a friend that it's very interesting He worked for sci-fi got laid off But he enjoyed the layoff because he saw the death of cable coming anyway He talked to his kids he would see what his kids were doing and he was saying won't you kids watch cable? No, no, we're watching He quit now he opened up his own station. It's a horror station and some people get it and some people don't get it, you know The networks they give Clunky comedian specials here. There's guys that are out there proving themselves
Starting point is 01:05:02 That should have been on TV five years ago But the networks and the networks executive fall in love with a certain type and they'll go with it to the end And you see it's a bombing and though it's a dog with fleas this kid doesn't have the chops You never developed this kid. You didn't make America fall in love with them before you put them on TV There's no creativity anymore. Everything is a piece of paper There's no creativity if I give Lisa I had a deal at CBS to develop a show and I give you a hundred thousand dollars Develop a show and I put you with Sam Tripoli develop a show and I believe in you that much The first thing I'm doing is calling the executive producers from two and a half men and going eight
Starting point is 01:05:43 Lee sciat is doing three guest spots on your show Who the fuck is least don't you fucking work? Fuck you think you're fucking talking to L E E s y a t t that's okay Get Elaine on the phone and tell her I'm setting up a mean thing to go down there talk to the kid. He's a stand-up grab a pen He's gonna be at the improv Melrose you fuck what improv you work at CBS What fucking improv do you think Melrose is gonna get the commies to 1130 somebody go see him and get back to me bye
Starting point is 01:06:19 That's what you do and you write him into the hit shows You write him into that show you write him into somebody else show so when people see you in the commercial in six months What they do with Malaney how many shows they put Malaney on? How many how many shows they put Kristalln when her show got picked up none none They should have had Kristalln. I don't know but who they they're gonna have that fucking skank that killed the singer from From Nirvana with that pussy. What's her name? Corny love they got her on sons of anarchy wasting time Really, that's the bits that killed the drummer from Nirvana with the whatever his fucking name is the bogey
Starting point is 01:06:56 Yeah, she's the one you think people he killed himself because a drug No, he killed himself because he smelled a snatch. That's why it smelled like fucking death. It's not like fucking Seattle vomit That's why yeah, and they're giving her TV spots, but they're wasting your time We got Cristela Lonzo fighting for our life in Mexican fat chick with a fucking dangly tooth Hanging there on ABC on Friday nights. It's gonna fucking do well Gabriel's on the show with it Yeah, and they didn't put on anything else. They don't know dick. They don't they're not fucking creative It's just people pushing but there's suits dude They're yes doing what they're doing who just moved their way up and it just sucks and it's unnecessary because you know for me
Starting point is 01:07:35 Personally, it's like my life my career. I've done well with everybody But there's one group of people these fucking suits who are gamblers. That's all suits are gamblers Are they gambler? They want to gamble on you. They don't want to gamble on you So but they keep gambling on the same person, you know that that thing never never works out Well, the guy who does it all the time they don't want because you know what else Joey as Much as we want to make it. There's the suits out there. They want to be like I have the magic eye I discovered this thing so like if I go I got Joey Diaz here this and you're killing it Let's just say fictitiously. You're the guy you are but without the heat. I'm like all this Joey Diaz people love him
Starting point is 01:08:15 He's huge. Nobody wants to be like, oh, yeah, let's go them. Let's go with this kid And no one knows so they could be like look who I discovered Let's work our way backwards instead of it's very weird that you think that they had a lot more comments as you said something before You said these comedy clubs keep building they make them bigger and bigger and bigger And we go play there and we wish that we could fill 600 seats Yeah, that's the dream, but then when you get there guess what folks 600 seats in a room is an awkward fucking room After 500 it becomes a theater and if it isn't the theater don't try to sell it if they the chicken don't tell me
Starting point is 01:08:51 It's a fucking rooster. You know saying that you follow me laundry. So for a comic. It's very awkward to perform in those places I know it is for me. So that's why I was setting before. Yeah, Joey, but you can make so much money. You know what? I rather feel comfortable. I rather you leave like you heard every word. I Want you to see me from every angle, you know, so you can see me scratching my balls Look at him. He's got a stain on his dick from his peanut. He didn't wash his helmet. Oh, he's got syphilis So I want you to see my skin off fucked up. I want you to see a piece of meat in my tooth I'm a normal you want the intimacy of what's supposed to replace the Dorae me for the intimacy I rather do an extra show than sit there and the people in the back
Starting point is 01:09:37 And you got to do it when you do a theater It's a different kind of delivery You got to drop your punchline wait for the last go all the way the back come all the way and then you go to your next Like you ever have a bit where it's like tack tack tack tack Those are really hard bits to do in theaters because right because the timing yeah, the timing's off So they laugh really hard you wait a second you drop it again. It just doesn't have the same timing I bomb it all those Joe Rogan No way Joey Diaz
Starting point is 01:10:04 I go first. I love you to death. You're crazy. I go up first I go up first and nobody gets up a twilight timing And I'll tell you what man I'll step on my punchlines Unless the sound is very good like them arise the sound is world-class where we do to show where they do the Lion King in Vegas when he used to do that theater the sound is good But I could put five theaters why would go out there and Bomb I'm gonna bomb in for like four theaters in the row
Starting point is 01:10:36 We would laugh about it and then Pittsburgh Pittsburgh has a theater that is Perfect the only problem is 1200 people. Oh, but if you saw it you go. Oh, yeah This is what I'm shooting my HBO special. It's all over It's all over because once there's rooms that you go into that you get excited about There's rooms like because of the structure of the original room That's the structure where I work the best. Yeah, because I could close my eyes and visualize myself In that structure, you know, I was having struggling. I always go to San Francisco and I struggle Sometimes I don't see that ever happen. I feel a struggle
Starting point is 01:11:19 Friday Saturday early show I blew it up like I haven't blown up a long time the last time I went to Frisco I ate death Thursday two shows Friday and the early show Saturday, but that late show Saturday Yeah, I took it to a different level a switch goes off. I have a fear There's a fear I have and once I'm at a level. Yeah, I'm getting laughs I you you've been there when you've walked off stage and by the common eye You've gotten laughs. Yeah, we all could do that. We're doing it 15 fucking years. I'm talking about that rhythm I'm talking about the unity of life. Yeah, I get it. I'm talking about the
Starting point is 01:11:59 Jokes the whole thing even nights when your timing is on it wasn't together. Yeah, so I have to I'm doing something wrong It's my body language. It's my energy. I'm not scratching my balls. I'm not cursing I'm not doing something wrong because they're not feeling it Yeah, I understand this is coming is a lot more than going up there and telling fucking jokes When you see Kevin on he's killing his energy is on his aura is on, you know his materials on it's six things There's nights. I go up there and to us Joey's on but the Joey trips. Come on You I get it dude, and you go You know that wasn't really me and they come up to you
Starting point is 01:12:40 This is the best I've ever seen you and you're like looking at this person going you're fucking retarded. Yeah I've had way better sets. They were technical. They were following you in San Jose is was an education, dude I followed this dude and following Joey Diaz at a Joe Rogan show is like Middling for Van Halen, but David Lee Roth is the opening act You know because this motherfucker goes up there and does ten minutes of just the most well-written ass-eating material I've ever heard in my life, and I'm just going through the roller-decks going What am I gonna do that's gonna follow this and I got my head and for the first show? It was I gonna be honest with you
Starting point is 01:13:17 It didn't go well because I like it psychologically. I beat myself up Which is always the only time I don't have a good set is when I psychologically beat myself up Second show it went great, and I said fuck it. What do I got to lose here? But dude you you're a monster, dude. You're you're a guy I don't have to gear up for a lot of people, but I'm like who am I fine? Okay, Diaz Okay, I have to go San Francisco 49ers. We're at the fucking script my first 15 plays because I gotta follow I gotta let the jokes get me through when maybe my mentality isn't there like it should be anybody else It's like flamethrower flamethrower flamethrower. I'll enjoy Diaz man. We got a script of shit. It's crazy
Starting point is 01:13:57 How I have a blue collar it's because you know you want to say yeah It's because of the commie store original room, but it's so many fucking rooms that For me to get that style. I Love doing 20 minutes Let's get the other way. Give me a light at 18 And you get off quick man. You get a light at 18. You're off at 20. Nobody else does that And you really want to rock this motherfucker let's do 12 give me a lighter 10 I Guarantee I'll break one of these fucking bulbs just from the heat one of these both. I love all that shit
Starting point is 01:14:33 That's why I love it and it's weird that I could do any dimension of time You know, I love doing six minutes. Oh Six minutes Three minutes. Oh Where that's a lot of people can't are you even doing jokes at three minutes or you're just like Tutoring it's energy. It's just a burst of energy, but that's three minutes also taught me how to audition Do you follow me how it goes hand-in-hand? So when you're in Seattle and you're an open mic and you're going I can't do nothing in three minutes
Starting point is 01:15:08 Mitzi sure easy to give you three minutes Three fucking minutes. You have three minutes to make do make it a break it So you really got to be tuned up those three minutes that goes back to auditioning So now you think you are polishing up your stand-up and you were questioning it don't fucking question that but that's something You won't know if you went to ground links That's something you won't know if you went to Iowa We took a stand-up course from somebody and started fucking around these are the things you'll never know It took me six years to get the carrots to come to Los Angeles. Not because I thought I was good
Starting point is 01:15:42 I never thought I ended up doing shit to stand up talking into it And I had two years of fluff time and in those two years of fluff time I picked up a movie a pilot so they pay attention even though he sucks They pay attention now you got bless you look at your line Even though I suck they had to pay attention And eventually the pieces come together and then you grow on that And that's what we're discussing here. That's what it's all about You know, sometimes you don't come here. You're not the funniest guy, but you come you look
Starting point is 01:16:15 You see what you got to do and you set your dream in motion And even though you put your hooks in here you go on the road in between you do six fucking tough weeks I remember Mitzi passed me on a Sunday. I was supposed to leave that Tuesday for Sam Ramon I canceled I'm not leaving on her because she forget your fucking name. Yeah that Monday. I was the first motherfucker calling Yeah spot boom and I stayed here for five or six weeks cancel everything I made sure I made an impact and sure enough. I got into a fist fight the second night as she was walking in Bam, there you go. Who's this dude? Bam throw punches up here second night and shit
Starting point is 01:16:53 She loved chaos dude. She loved chaos You know being a comedian so interesting because it's like it's really like some karate master shit in that You got your dojo your home club You work your comedy and then the key is to go on the road and fight other karate masters Like you just go into other cities and you got to see if your kung fu works there if your kung fu works over here I always used to love that it's like, okay Can I rock this room back when I first started doing comedy cuz I want straight to headliner, dude And that really hurt my career. I hurt my fucking career. Absolutely. I never got to watch how a headliner operates
Starting point is 01:17:31 I went straight to headliner and I've learned the hard way and I kind of got all these gigs and I cut they kind of went away And I just started just working and I just started watching and then you know Rogan took me on the road sometimes I got to watch how he worked and just how you do at the show and I got to watch Mazda Brani work You know and just like the ebb and flow of being a headliner And like it took me a little while to realize that because I used to want to go in there power set and do like a Fucking 45 a fire and you just can't do a 45 a fire You got to kill for a little while give them a chance to breathe take a breath reset kill for a little while take a breath Oh, here come the checks checks drop. Okay. I got to fucking keep these guys's
Starting point is 01:18:14 Attention or else I'm it's gonna sound like I'm bombing right now How do you deal with check drops and then like the big clothes and all that stuff? It's psychological how you close how you headlining. I love you've been doing comedy for that almost 20 years, dude Okay, so it's weird that I Been doing comedy 23 years, and I just really started headlining Three years ago really I always had lined But do you follow me? Yeah, I came by headliner. Yeah, three years ago Like I just stumbled on it like I had been headlining since seven years
Starting point is 01:18:48 Since I got here my first manager Ken Phillips. He get me. I'm a creative runs his headline. I had 40 minutes That's stretching it. That's if the audience talked back to me Now I had to do 45 I bombed every night, but to become a headlining our bombers had one you bomb And so what about if you bomb in Clark, Tennessee or? West Virginia you bomb and then I don't like anyway cuz you don't have a guitar and a banjo and a fucking hat on But that makes It's amazing how you grow with the art now you look back and go my god I was horrible at seven years, and I was walking around the comedy store
Starting point is 01:19:26 In my mind I was horrible. I'm horrible now So I can't imagine what I was doing that being a comic at seven years, and I was already at the store fucking Walking around, you know bombing But following Mooney following Eddie Griffin following dice following Sagitt following, you know You're in there You're in the fucking trend and it and then you're in the trenches for two weeks And you're on the road for three and you're in the trenches for two So you're learning how to bob and weave a different state-to-state Lee wake up. Look at you cock sucker was 10 milligrams
Starting point is 01:20:01 Let me get some shout-outs 10 fucking milligrams. Yeah, that's all Martin. No, you know, I love you. God bless you cock sucker Joey B. Andy Scott Rob the mailman in Connecticut you bad motherfucker keep delivering that shit Scott Vaughn and my main man Billy Welsh You know, I forgot all about that that you're Armenian by trade By birth by birth and you went on the road with the axis of evil toward yeah
Starting point is 01:20:32 I was I used to when we first started how I got picked up at the comedy store Duncan Trestle was The Booker at the time and a mazhe brownie was a really good friend of mine and they both called me up They're like listen, we got a way to get you to the store. Mitzi wants to do a Middle Eastern show before 9 11 She put came up with this idea a year before and she's like I want to do a Middle Eastern show They're like she's like just do a joke about being a One joke about your mother one joke about being Armenian and one joke that you love So I did a joke and I remember you like this joke back today. It was about Asians on ecstasy I don't know if you ever remember that joke. I remember I did it and Joey Diego's dude
Starting point is 01:21:15 That's a funny fucking joke and I was like, okay, it's Diaz. Serious five. I used to really I still love you But I always had a lot of love for you. The funniest thing that I remember that why I found love with Tripoli because You meet people at the store and then you you judge them next by their worth They come over to give you a blast of coke. You like this guy's alright You have a drink with them. Maybe he gives you a ride home. You borrow 40 bucks But then you like this about somebody when you're a comic especially for me. I like this about you okay, so he's okay But then after a while if I'd see you want to stage bomb and whatever then you stop that kind of goes away. I
Starting point is 01:21:58 Don't mind if somebody bombs because I bombed but you gotta have heart There's something about heart that I've always been attracted to I don't give a fuck if you got money or car That's shit though. If you don't have heart I can't hang with you there's people and you got to test them just to see if they got heart and sometimes they Disappearing you feel bad, but some motherfuckers like I got a hard dog and this is what I'm gonna do and You got in and we were mutual friends from Pablo, you know, we both got he gave me a car They won in a fucking poker game my first car in LA a car car because the car that I drove out from Vegas The engine had exploded on the drive out. Oh, I didn't know fucking car

Keep it. So that's who Pablo was man He would give you a fucking car. They won in a poker game So it was crazy. He got into the store One night, you know when you when you walk Great story about that car too when you walk it when you walk into the store When you check in let's say you have an original room spot
Starting point is 01:23:06 You check them with the original when you were young barracuda Because when you get into the store first, you're a nervous little faggot Your first year you're nervous takes you about eight months to somebody challenge you Emotionally or something and then after that you become a barracuda. What's a barracuda that you can't wait to get to the store You just can't fucking wait like you live it you dream it your dick gets hard you sleep upside down at night There's something about the store your first eight months And then after that you can't not be away from that place It becomes an addiction, which means oh, yeah, if you're spots at 1145 you will be there at 915
Starting point is 01:23:48 Because you never know you might catch a fall on the fucking main one for hustling Just for hustling you might walk in and go. Hey, ma'am Joey you here Can you go up next if listen if Dave Tyree don't come you're in the main room, right? Tell me the 125 fucking dollars for going on and 30 dollars. So you would I walk back there. I Check in as I'm checking in you would walk around the back You go through the mail bathroom boom and into the back and whoever was working. Hey, what's happening? Listen, there's a fall that I'm here
Starting point is 01:24:20 I'll let you know as I'm coming to coming to the stage Sam tripling So as I walk back and also he starts doing my favorite joke Sam tripling didn't know that it was 940 1015 She put them up by mistake early and it was the main room is for certain people at 9 o'clock 100% from 9 to 9 10 30. It's for certain people then 55 will leave and For you come in and that's your crowd Comedy store works for people for people that are going you're like, well, how the fuck do we sit there from 9 to 12?
Starting point is 01:24:58 Nobody says they're from 12 right people come at 9 and leave at 10 15 because they want to go somewhere else and On the other hand come in 11 and that's your audience. Well, he caught the 9 o'clock crowd And he's up there doing the Asian ecstasy joke and they're not going But he don't give a fuck he doesn't get we don't give a fuck when you're starting you have this belief You're in the main room. You don't give a fuck whether the joke is working or not You don't stop the joke you keep fucking dabbing it out You keep throwing punches and he's up there and I'm by the corner because I'm admiring him I'm like what this cat don't know is these people are 80 fucking years old
Starting point is 01:25:35 And he's just throwing daggers at him and he worked himself out of it or whatever And that's when I fell in love with Sam Tripoli because he got himself out of a hole not knowing he was so young He thought the Asian joke was gonna work in front of everybody. They didn't know what ecstasy was I didn't know what ecstasy fucking was You know me you follow me so if I didn't fight if I just caught it because my world was cocaine I know but he's doing this ecstasy joke in front of these people that But he just believed himself and that's when you respect people I had a philosophy very early and it was
Starting point is 01:26:11 When it comes to stand up my will to kill is stronger than there will not laugh like I am going to Get this show going at some point. I'll throw a couple out a couple out nothing Then I'll start calling them out on this shit and I'm gonna crack it sometimes I don't but the will to kill has always been stronger than their will just to stare at me my first spot the comedy store first time ever was following Charles Fleischer at You know back when he was doing like an hour and I didn't know any better. I didn't know who that guy was It was this I have to say it's like 2,000 dude 2,000 I just got picked up now

It literally had no connection to the rest of the world It was just like we grew up in our own little environment playing bar gigs I had no clue what the fuck I was doing. I go up there I bomb because in my audition I tapped into something that I understand now But I didn't know then I just tapped into it and I flamed through the room
Starting point is 01:28:40 But I didn't know how to get it back and I go up to Montreal and I bomb They put me up after uh, who is the fucking funny black comic? Fuck I can't remember her name, but he murders. He now I would follow it not even think twice about it Then it was just I went up there and I bombed and for the rest of like the next three years I just was like a fucking samurai just going around Exacting revenge on people I thought wrong me So I I get a chance of like hey you want to do this fucking chocolate Sundays, and I'm like yeah, I'll do chocolate Sundays I have to follow cat Williams
Starting point is 01:29:17 But I was so crazy back then and didn't give a fuck I went up there and flamed through this fucking room and now I watched that DVD and I'm watching cat Williams I'm like this motherfucker is murdering the room How the fuck did I follow that guy?

It's my one My one show year. It's my karma show because you know the rest of the year I'm a shady motherfucker. All my hobbies are felonies. You know, I'm in the weird shit So this is the one show I do that kind of gives back to the universe
Starting point is 01:42:47 And it's this weird shit because Armenians have you unique genetic makeups because we were a Christian country It's run by Muslims. So we didn't want to hook up with any of them. So we just kept hooking up with us we're kind of like the hillbillies of you know, the Eastern Europe and So we it's hard for us to find genetic matches So my cousin Michelle and this doctor named dr. Free Jordan decided because my my cousin Michelle's daughter got cancer So I got bone marrow cancer and they couldn't find a match So they decided to start the Armenian bow male donor registry and it's crazy dude Could you do charity events all the time and you never really see what where your where your hard work goes here?
Starting point is 01:43:30 It's like you see the fruits of your labor. It's crazy man. It's one of the coolest things I'm a part of we're going on our 12th year of doing it 12 years, dude. I've been doing shows at the comedy store 12 years. That's a long time You're a badass Armenian Yeah, I'm trying dude because I didn't know that see I thought I was white when I moved out to LA and Then I was doing a joke at the hustler cafe where this guy Tony Montana used to do a show He was this crazy like coked out fucking dude who ran a comedy show at the hustler cafe And I'm doing a joke about how I how hard it is to be white and then Paul Mooney came up to me afterward
Starting point is 01:44:10 He goes oh homie homie you ain't white use Armenian use a nigga and I was like whoa I just got called the n-word by the king of the n-word. It's fucking great, dude And it was the coolest thing ever and then I realized that's when I realized Armenians are different Like out west and they are back east back east. They're white. They look white. You wouldn't even know that you wouldn't if I If you saw my aunts, you'd be like well the white people here It's like their Persian Armenian and it's gonna be a little more angry or out here One of my friends growing up was Armenian Jersey I never put together so I came here about five years ago that he was his name was karnik
Starting point is 01:44:50 I said durian. I always think about him because he was a tough guy And once he found out my mother died he always would come to me and ask me if anybody was bothering and His brother their hobby was picking up Volkswagen and turning them around So how have you parked your Volkswagen when you woke up the next day was pointed up the hill and you're like why? It was him and his brother. They were beasts. They weren't felons. They weren't criminals nothing like that But when they had your back and then there was another kid That was Armenian. I wasn't tight with I knew him. I knew his sister. I didn't until this day again I didn't even know what Armenian was and
Starting point is 01:45:27 He lived up for dudes. He was a tough motherfucker. So looking back his name was karnik I said durian and jack from the ha-ha. Yeah, his last name is as a durian and he said he had a bunch of relatives in New Jersey, so I knew I was on to something Armos are crazy, bro.
