There's a thing my old father-in-law used to make
As soon as you got sick as soon as you said I don't feel good
He would put like brandy hot toddies, right? No, no something polished like brandy and honey and lemon juice and
paprika and fucking
Celery sticks and fucking it tasted terrible
But you did one shot first of all you lasted like 20 minutes after that you went down down
Who the fuck you are?
I don't care how much crystal meth you have and you're going down from this drink. I would just drool and shit
And then uh
I never had it again. I don't know what the fuck it's called and then he used to call it something polish
And it just knocked the shit right out of you knocked this shit right out of you fuck
Yeah, mr. Reen and it was it had everything was in there was like four ounces
I had that neuro virus over Christmas. It was terrible. Where'd you get it from?
I got it from I think one of the I had to show up in syracuse at that funny bone
You know you'd meet and greet after I think one of the savages up there gave it to me
You know handshake by the time I got home. It's fine two days later. I'm out to dinner with
Ari I go home. I start to throw up. I text him. I go. Is this you feel bad? He goes no
So I'm like fuck. I got it just out the ass the mouth the whole thing
Then everyone else down the line gets it. It was terrible people have no idea
How sick you get from traveling every week if you let it get you and
If you get sick one week and you have like two weeks after that
By the time you get back you got full-on bronchitis. Yeah, soft pneumonia
I always tell you people that I learned from other comics
You know, I learned I saw him get sick all the time Ralphie May in the beginning
He would get sick all the time. Guess what he was doing smoking a pipe with people
Yeah, and every week you go into these different areas
And he was getting this jungle right out of his lungs. He ended up in the hospital
Fuck I love smoking weed
But I tell you what if I got like a busy week like if I'm shooting something
I don't smoke weed with people on the road. I can't take the fucking chance because they don't give a fuck
Yeah, they don't give a fuck about your life. They give a fuck about going to the show and meeting you
I don't blame them
But you have to consider if you had bronchitis for three fucking weeks. Yeah, and you come to the show
Don't smoke a joint with me dog. Don't smoke a joint with eight people. Don't pass a pipe around
I need no better than that. I know they just don't want to lose the experience after the three hits
Then they call from the bronchitis and then they look at you and they go
I had bronchitis with three weeks and you're like, great. Thank you. You fuck
Now I'm not going to smoke with nobody because of you because all I need is one bad apple
To spoil a whole bunch especially joints. Yeah joints. You can kind of I I don't mind doing in front of people when you kind of burn the
Ends and shit, but no
Would you trust me? I eat fucking chicks. I don't know. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, I don't trust nobody
I smoke a pipe but someone there was a girl I smoked a couple weeks ago
I'm like, how many dicks is this chick suck the last month?
I'm a dick sucker by proxy just from smoking from this fucking thing
What's up, Lisa? Yeah. Oh my god. I feel like I'm already going through change. I don't know what those fucking

Rich williams great kid. Remember rich one. Yeah, right and yep kid from syracuse as a matter of fact
George brett came on the show and they wrote a sketch
Of me and george brett were really happy and it was me and the dugout
eating a sundae
With hot fudge and it went all over the back. That was the pine tar. Okay, that was me. He was a good dude too
So funny, you know, I started on that show with those guys. They contacted me the pay was garbage
But it was enjoyable like i've got to meet sugary leather. They dressed me up like reberto duran
And then like go down there and insult them and sugary leather. He's been punched in the head 18 times
He couldn't fucking tell at first. You can see he was looking at me going. Is this really reberto? What the fuck?
Lee what's going on over there? It's right here. Here we go. Watch how he played like
Stick them. Yeah, this was it. This was

Yeah, but they're not gonna show like the stick them catches in the most intimidating raiders part
Well, what do you think on the show they're gonna show look at the look at this guy
Look at the just looking at him. You'd be scared lee. What happened to the video. What happened to the screen the tv's stolen
That's a nice stolen tv though, so you gotta say
You're gonna steal one look at them. Look at how we get yeah, look at this shit on his ankles lee
Lee, you know what that is. Look at how he was intercepted. He was a great athlete
He just he was a great athlete no matter what everyone's hand. Look at his hands
The stick them's all over the people's hands, but look at him. He was a great athlete
The stick them helped them
Just a little bit like if a ball got hit and it threw up in the air
And they would land on his shoulder. That's how the stick them was shouldn't have been they say those gloves now that they wear now
I'll tell beckham. They're basically made of stick them. Yeah, the black ones. I mean these other ones
But you put on yeah, they're so shiny and shit when I used to work at the puddle car wash and boulder
those guys
Somebody at that university was just robbing those gloves by the boxes
I must have had 20 of those pairs of boxes at the gloves at the house not boxes. I'm sorry
20 of those gloves and they were like those black gloves. Yeah that the receivers were everybody at the car wash wore them
And the fucking people from the university would come there and go. Why does everybody did we pay for these?
University of denver all over the fucking no boulder boulder
Yeah, so boulder had them and they had them like in home colors. I think like black and gold
I don't know like if they saw you like the gold ones people would say don't let them see you with the gold
But in those days, that's how those students. That's how those football players made a living
Yeah, they stole shit and sold them memorabilia statues. Why are you using them for the car wash though?
What do you mean? Well, you gotta keep your hand you gotta keep your hands dry dry
So you would wipe the cars down and and then just to be cool if you were standing like me
I was a fucking salesman at the car wash. I was a fucking
I had dried windows for about a week and that was that was a horrible job
Yeah, horrible. Yeah, I got that job like november
20th
And I kept that job till like fucking january 10th and then right before the super bowl
I got indoors at a detail body shop, but I was at the puddle out there. I started cold too
And I had a license and they wouldn't let me drive
Like there was a kid they paid just to drive to pull the cars out put them into spots
Right and he was mr. Cool. He had the hat like everybody knew who he was
He had to crack them off pieces of your tips. Uh, fuck that I would steal tips anybody who gave me money
I belong to me bitch if I saw you out there with two bucks in the ticket
I'd work my angle. So I was right there. Oh, thank you. Sometimes I put a dollar in sometimes I keep a dollar, you know
You know, there was always an angle there that that was a sad thing that was always everybody was fucking stealing that fish through
That place must have made millions of dollars because when I was a kid and I worked at
I found out shit that everybody was robbing that play. It's amazing
There car washes are are a really great business to just make money. Oh, it's a cash business
It's a cash cow. My friends had one in Hoboken and when I was growing up
It's a cash cow. You know, if you get it the salesman is the whole thing really
That guy at the window when you see the ones around here those guys, why would you hire these mexican dudes that they can't
Which one do you want? Yeah, yeah, they give you me the regular. Give me the deal
I'm sure you don't want the 1695 dog. I would work you to pee for pieces four extra bucks
You get the whole tire. Listen, dog. I'm gonna give you the car wash and the basic car washes is shit
It's 695. I'm gonna charge you 695 for the basic car wash, but I'm also gonna do this
I'm gonna throw the waxing. I'm gonna throw the air rust
Inhibitor, which was nothing
Rust inhibitor is like fucking this. Whatever the spray that they spray out is under the car to shield it against salt and rock
Yeah, I'm gonna spray stuff on your rim. I'm gonna arm roll it in and out nice
I'm gonna try, you know, I would work them. Let me throw in this
Let me throw in that because you figured out what costs nothing
What costs nothing, you know, I went to the boss one night. Let me ask you
What can I throw in here and make people know? No, I didn't even ask them because they're too stupid
Yeah, they're still going. They're still working in the 70s. I had them showing Joey Diaz style
You know I'm saying Joey Diaz style is taking it from a different perspective, you know, when you sell cars and when you sell
Cars in Denver, Colorado
You go for gross. What is gross the amount over the invoice?
You know, if the sticker says 20,000 and we own the car for 17 five
I make a living off
Me making you believe that that cars were $20,000
If I sell you that car correctly, you're gonna get for a little discount just to let your friends know
But if I sell that car correctly to you and and if I show you the lighters and I take an hour with the bell
Look at this blinker
This is where 2000 right here. You know what I'm saying? Like if you sell the car with value
you could
Uh
Make gross in new york. It's such a whore town
When I worked I didn't work for the potamkins the potamkins or the thieves in new york city
But there was he said a little yeah the potamkins, you know, that whenever you open up the daily news
Potamkin always got a Cadillac on special
$199 down $199 a month. Wait till you get there
You leave there with 300 a month and a fucking beat in the black eye
You would have for 18 hours your mother bought a car to use your son's social
They don't give a fuck over that potamkin at least that was how it was 20 years ago
That's where you went to work. Yeah when you wanted to make money and not have a soul
There was a lot of those places Douglas Toyota when I worked at Douglas Toyota
Listen 87 88 90 91 never salesman making 12 grand a month. These guys were making eight bucks an hour
People like 12 grand a month. So I make that selling shoot yet. Listen. These guys would need to be robbing people
Or making eight bucks an hour. Yeah, they're making 12 000 a month now. Those guys have no conscience
They yes, you did that then they give you to a closer
That's the place to sell
Douglas if no what I know now I bet anybody was 21 call me
Go to Douglas if it's still a line of closer
You just get them wet and you got no responsibility. How you doing steve? What's happening boomer?
What are you looking again? I'm gonna tell you what to sell
I really enjoy listening. Let's do let me ask you a question. Are we gonna buy a car today? You shop?
Well
Before I put you in the car
Are you considering because I'm gonna work hard for you. I'm gonna fight this fucking this guy here. This is trump's nephew
You know what I'm saying? I'm gonna go in and hit him with a stick. No protest. No tunnel bar
You take him for the ride. You bring him back by
In new york, you don't make money from that. You make money from
accessories and financing
Oh the up packages and stuff the rims the fucking the things that come out on the sides
Yes, alarms the things on the side and the tv's in the back. They give you a taste of financing in new york
Yeah, which a lot of people they want the whole package
So they want you to sell financing from the jump. How are you gonna pay for this decent credit union?
What's the rate of your credit union? I'm sure we work with a hundred banks. If you're credit solid
I know a hundred people you work with a hundred bags a hundred banks
I put one fucking button in now
And it's like utopia. It's like if you want a hooker and you press a button now
I'm 22 fucking hookers to pop up on your computer. Same thing. I got a hundred fucking banks
And you tell them to give you your rate. You're gonna lie and i'm gonna lie
You're gonna say you it's nine, but you're gonna say about 8.5
I'll beat it
What if I got you eight today right now with the low down payment let you keep a thousand
Use it for your son's fucking football team. Give it to the nun other show you a little nunly pussy whatever the fucking is
My god
The nunly pussy that's a new one. It's yeah, it's a nun nuns pussy
So you made money off a
Percentage on that shit. So how to dance. So how do you make money if you're the the before the closer?
Like if do you have to they have to sell the car or are you just getting paid just for doing that?
Okay, the closer for the closer to come in you have to get a commitment. Okay. What's the commitment? I'm gonna buy this car. I just
Yeah, so you want to do 300 a month?
I really didn't say I want to do 70s what I really want to do
2000 all I got to do is this I got to get you the down payment you want
The price on your trade
That you want. Oh, it's all I gotta do. You get me that and then we'll work this car
And then he'll I have you sign all four boxes. I got a credit card from you and I bring it to a closer
I wish this fucking animal luck and I sent them to a guy who's been beating women for the last 30 years of his life
To divorce. Yes. Eight divorces. He doesn't that's eighth in his softball team. Yeah
Six rehabs robbed one of them at gunpoint
This guy comes in and just torments you to death before I mean and then he brings you to you need the gas and go package
I got a gas and go package and then he brings it a check that does the whole
Introduction to the car. So you already sold another car. You're a king
by the time that guy goes to f and i and then to the uh
They call in those days to have girls hot girls that would show you everything about your car
explain the lease or the
The payment plan who you paid it to yeah, they don't have that anymore. Yes, they do
Well, not at the Volkswagen in in panorama city. They don't because it's very
When you have that last customer service rep
They make sure that you listen to how slick these dealers are
They make sure that when you get your customer rating
You bring it back to them and let them fill it out
And I not only buy you a tank of gas
But I also throw those rims you like that
Because that's the most important thing the customer service index is the most important thing and the most important thing the white people
Because the white people go on there and they see your customer service index is down. They don't do business with you
Wait, this is white people
Before no, this is before yeah, it was almost like what was that service this business consumer business
This is before you up
No, no, no, no, and they still got it now when you buy a car a dealer will send you a fucking thing
Because that score
Let you know how whether you'll get certain cars
If you treat your customer shitty, they ain't gonna send you all the cars you are
They're gonna give you a shitty fucking a lot with the cars
They're gonna send you red cars and orange cars convertibles the lime green one. No one nobody fucking wants so
Uh, that's that you have to have a high customer rating now, man. You really do. It's got to be like extraordinary
When I do business with this Subaru
They go above and beyond. That's why I've gotten four cars from them
I'm on my fourth or fifth or sixth car from the valley right there. Yeah van eyes. I bruce. He comes to my shows. He calls, you know
That's why I just call him and go i'm coming up
When thursday at three have a car ready for me
Let's do it. Boom. I walk in no down payment because I just go from lease to lease to lease. Yeah
I'm an american dog
when I started
When I saw cars I learned more about life than anything ever
You know when you there's certain companies you work with that you tell them i'm gonna pay this down payment one time
But i'm gonna get one of these every three years
yeah
I'm just coming in. I'm gonna call you at one. I'm gonna pick the car up before it's watched as fully guess
I sign four papers. That's what i've seen three years after a while. They'll know you just tell them
That's how I want to do business
Listen, whatever and now you're a value customer. You're always gonna go lease from them every fucking three years
You're gonna go to the service department. You know, you're gonna work it. They work with you, bro
I've always bought cars. I've never leased a car. No, no, no no more that ends
That ends now. Can you write off a lease a little bit on your taxes?
I'm ton of shit because i'm i'm making you pay for what you try. Why are you paying for the whole thing?
Look what's going on with society today
Look what's going on with my man here ever since i've known my man
He's broken down for me and then between him and my other brother
They'll fucking sit you down and talk you 22 ways. Why are you up to cut cable today?
Yeah, and what the scam is and what the source they do they cut it all the way down
They got chinese lease got chinese cable that's got stolen from the israelis
And they get shipped to new jersey, okay?
And then he gets like hbo go for three dollars a month
He gets the espn package with his little fucking things no hbo. He doesn't need to ask him
That's the today's america. I know watching tv for 25 dollars a month and there's americans still paying 100
That's me though. I'm the america. My dad's on my passport
I sometimes I go who's watching the sneaky pits without me. How good is it my dad?
I'm just one in but my dad's like I could I go you got to go back to the one that I was on
It's one account. You can't just keep moving. He's five ahead
My entire family's on my all my accounts too. Yeah, my mom watches like gilmore girls
I'm like who's watching gilmore this kid eliminated the cost of this television. Yeah, okay, so the same
I'm paying 180 bucks a month
I'm a nerd. I love tv
I when I first got a tv in my room because I wasn't allowed to and through my entire life
I didn't sleep
I had espn the sports center the bars on the left
I had it burned into my tv because it was I would just have it on all night
And I haven't had cable for about two and a half years
So still you haven't I haven't had I haven't had cable. I've had netflix. I have uh,
Cody a little bit but not really even that much. I have uh, amazon cso for some specials and uh,
And then a lot of the other stuff you can just buy on on demand now
Well, you you lease what depreciates and you own what appreciates
So whatever loses money, why would you buy? I buy 20 000 for a car. I go down the corner. It's worth 18
Already now. I just got 20 g's in this fucking car
Okay, then you have the option of financing if you have great credit
You go down and put a percentage down and get like a cheap union rate or something six points
And you can save money that way to build your credit or whatever
But after a while and I learned this selling cars you want the most car for the least amount of money
When I used to pencil people, which means when I go to my manager for steve run is easy. Yeah
Yeah
If steve told me that if he kept saying 250 to like the best deal ever
Like as an american to fucking my brother like if my mother came to me
in 1989 90 in that time and said to me papa
What kind of car would you look me up with nissan at one time?
Had a deal on the medium car
What's that rocket ship in the middle?
Altima altima no bigger than that one the one maxima. Yeah
What that maxima nissan maxima nissan altima maxima when I was fucking selling cars
They had a deal that you can only unless you're fucking stupid
You wouldn't go down there
First of all when you buy a car
You own the car for five years not the five years then you own the fucking car
So for five years the bank owns that fucking note
By the time you own that car you don't even want that fucking car no more. It smells like gas hole
Your ex-girlfriend used to blow you in the car. She's not one another guy, you know, it's ridiculous
But now we have so much invested that we want the most out of this car and our mind this car is worth all this money
And then we go try to sell it and ain't worth that now. We're stuck with that fucking car
Listen as an american you want to trade your car in every three years
Every three years 15,000 a year
Bam, I don't do no more driving the 15,000 a year no more. Do you now not since when that our driving days are over
Well, San Diego was the only place we drive. I don't go to san francisco. No more. You fly to san francisco. Yeah
So if you keep your mileage, you know
Why buy when you can rent that's all ugly sis
So now instead of you paying 450 a month. I'm gonna give you the same car for 300 a month
But 36 motherfucking month, you know the 4 000 you really had to put down to get that number
Put 2,500 back in your pocket. It's just gonna be $1,500 that
Really and in three years you come in here and fucking get another three talk to your counter
It may not work for you, but a blinkin the great a blinkin said
lease
What appreciates
And no own what appreciates and lease what depreciates. Fuck you a blinkin. I think you're doing what he had
So here's my that's why I come to the church
I've been leasing this is my second lease and both times I've paid for the extra miles
Please thank you. I've paid for the extra miles and and you never get it. Well, I got close
Mostly, but now I live so close to where I am most of the time. I think I did under 10,000 last year
So like but then someone was telling me you fucked up because this fucking guy gets a call from them. This is how they get you
They get these fucking dudes they call him after the lease is two years old
And they say come down. We got too much inventory. Give us your car. Well, I still got here and you go down
That's how they fuck with the numbers
I don't fuck with the numbers. Yeah, I wait the three years you dropped the car off now. I got it so good. I dropped the car off
Okay
They cut me a check for the miles
And when I get a check a bill from subaru
I've sent them that check
You know how many bills I've got from subaru
Really
It pays to be loyal with one company. That's it
I don't care if it's bmw. You lose the bmw the shitty one the three
Just because you want to be cool. It's dirt cheap
That's why you see thousands of fucking bmw because people go down and go and I want to buy a bmw
And also they go, you know what the number is on that?
It's this every month. It's it's a small nickel. You know what I'm saying? Plus you're 21. All right
You're 21. What do you think insurance gonna bang you? That's another gbo a month. You're paying fucking 16
Just to drive the car. Why are you killing yourself? I know I do me a favor
My dad always bought the cars and then he would give them down to the kids and stuff
That's what was my cool. Whoa school people don't want these fucking cars. No
Every three years you got a new fucking rocket ship my kid. Yeah, and when your kids ready for a thing you put them on a scooter
You know, you put them on one of those italian schools with a fucking hell of a little Vespa
Yeah, a little Vespa
Beeping at people cutting people off hammer hanging out
How is it being a dad and balancing your career? It's I mean, it's tough
Um, what's the longest you've been away from a month? Oh jesus christ. Yeah, where'd you go?
I did a movie in shreveport for it was like three and a half weeks
It's yeah, three weeks. Yeah, 20 days 20 days. This is the worst. It was tough at this point in my life

I don't know if you're gonna drive there from taking jfk
But drive up you see that you drive over the new tap and z bridge almost it's right next to it
The tap and z bridge was one of the worst bridges. Well, they just rebuilt in the fucking country. They were scared for years
Yeah
People living in fear going over that fucking thing. No one ever told me this. I went over the tap
I saw the document three or few years ago. They said they built a new one right next to it

Dude halftime
Lee
If you got an all you had to do is get like a picture of beer and they gave you like a knife or fork
And a plate and you just tore up wings for four quarters endless
Blue this was way before ranch was invented. Nobody used ranch in those days. It was straight up blue cheese
They had like a little salad which nobody thought nobody touched that salad you would go there eat those wings
With a with a grandma coke burning the hole in your pocket. This is your last meal for the next day
Half and shit fucking gold jackets. Oh my god. There'd be piles of wings

That was a mob bar. This was something else
It was a chain and it was the middle of this thing and people going in we can get wings and beef steak charlie's
No, no, I was in new york city. Yeah, I had
That's the whole thing beef steak charlie was behind those days
You'd stab the beef someone called my mama content beef steak charlie's and my dad hit him
Beef steak charlie
Oh, there was fucking fist fights in there the steak was always a lot like it made some type of noise
The big potato was older than
fuck
That aluminum foil was from like 1910
Pittsburgh wasn't even fucking on the map yet
Oh my god, that place stunk. But you know what dog for 20 bucks. You ain't like
You could bring your whole family. Oh my god. You were like a savage
You get the buckets. I never saw fist fights
But I did hear about fist in the parking lot when they gave crab legs out
White people would go bananas in those days of discount steak house. Yeah, it was like a beef steak charlie
Oh my god
People say like stuff is bad now, but at least marketing's gotten better beef steak charlie's was the bomb 10 cent wings when we were in high school football
We'd go there. Oh my god. Yeah, but I was just reading something today
I wasn't reading for 2017. It was one of those slide shows and they said they have
Like free food and a bunch of bars in in new york
Like you can just go in and with like every drink you'll get a like a slice of pizza
Really or on like fridays one place has like a wing buffet and I never see that anywhere
Like do you remember that? I know you've talked about like the sandwiches that joe and mary's but
Like for free when I was when I was growing up
On that side of jersey, I could look into the face and tell you any place you went into
Had something on the bar food wise in the 70s. You always had something on the bar. I used to go to this one place
In union city my friend's uncle worked there
And I never forget going down in like on a tuesday night watching college basketball six people at the bar
And you come over to you hungry
Hey, he's something. Yeah
And he came back with mortadella and adam cheese on cuban crafters. What with some services
Are you fucking kidding me? Who shows up with mortadella adam cheese on cuban crafters? This guy was irish
He was as irish as they came. Yeah, you know those tight. There was places where
They always had some yeah, like food thing in the back that chance place. I talk about
They're legendary because they were professionals
Yeah, if you went to the bar during the week and that bartender was there and he took a blast from you
And he let you karate chop and all that shit. Well, that was the that was the mic
That was the other place the bartender you gave him ten dollars to let you karate chop him from time to time
Come on over here
He didn't even give you his neck
He even gave me his neck
My friend roger used to karate chop, but back to monday football
I built a relationship with this restaurant
I would walk in there every monday night with four or five six deep
And we'd eat 200 wings, but leave a 20 we leave a 20 on the tip
We never got into no first fights or nothing. So for maybe a year and a half. I had a relationship up there. They trusted me
Go back to 1985
I would mug you for a dollar
I would walk in there and they would still go. Hey, hey, hey
I would eat wings have a couple margaritas. Maybe a salad
Maybe a bloody marry and I take the check and leave a 10 on the table and run out of there with the check
Really?
I did that every fucking week and I'll have my brother calling me george george goes. No, he was great
I would actually go up to the manager with the tab
Wrinkled up in my hand and talked to him like no shit. Yeah service was sensational
I guess about four computers you could do. Yeah. Yeah. This is all before computers
This is way and you know, I was so good at I thought that was my high point of disgusting fevery
I was doing high point or low point
High point high point. That's when I was at the most disgusting of my fevery career
Yeah, I couldn't rob big places
So I would walk into buildings with a suit on and rob like a bank box from a fucking under a desk like an office building
The secretary would get up to go pee. I'd go right in there
Going to the draw and there'd be the cash box. You never know. Sometimes it's eight dollars. Sometimes it's 800
Gotta take a chance better than sitting on the couch looking for quarters coming down the elevator with a cash box
Go cash. You don't know how many jackpots I had
That I would walk off the elevator walk out of the building the security guard be right there like oh jesus christ
But I'd have a suit on. Yeah, you look professional. I'd have a suit. I'll have a fucking briefcase
I'm I used to have a briefcase. There's like this leather
Doctor's pouch and I used to go to say for eight the mornings before league
And the overstock
They would hide it under the shelves and on top of the product
So so the big product in those days was yeast infection paste if you took
Paste you know the shape you put on your yeast infection
If you took it into upper Manhattan Harlem the beginning they'd give you a top dollar for those tubes
So every morning I would fucking go over there on the way over the city. This is this is my creepiness
This is this is even I was doing comedy and doing this for you kid
1990 fucking three I was pulling the scam with a suit on every morning just to get into the city
I would leave my house with zero
That's a true business man, you're going out listen dog
I was I was on a discipline
I would leave the house with zero dollars and had to get into new york city to midtown
And have breakfast and get some way
And some way score a joint something
You know what and in my mind I knew if I get into the city
And get downtown I could score breakfast put it on the arm at niggie the greeks
You know saying like new people along the way you had eaten there. So
Yeah, but how are you gonna? Okay, how are you gonna get all those?
I would put a suit I get up in the morning hop the turn show put the fucking thing and no no no
I'm a professional. I would war right this safe way
Look around the shelves. There'd be no security. It's seven the fucking morning. They don't come until about eight nine o'clock
Because nobody's robbing them at seven in the morning. Who do you think you're dealing with you got to be first?
Like I would say said the book
I'm walking up and down the flight in the first flight and I take two fucking yeast infection boxes
The whatever and there was something else they wanted
Like they didn't want telling all they buy from me or any of those aspirants they buy from me
But they wouldn't give you a top dollar
There was two things that were top dollar yeast
Yeah, so I would take whatever I'd always go for the yeast infection juice
And in those days in the suit least I had 32 whatever I was
I would walk over to the uh, george washington bridge
Walk over it walk over. I did that 3 000 times walk over it. That's a big. That's a long bridge. That's a long bridge
It's not really a mile and a half. Really? I would take me fucking 20 fucking minutes. Got your business suit?
Business suit, briefcase. I had the whole scam. I go to the bodega
Well, why not just take the bus they give me because why waste? You gotta change the dollar 50. I had zero dollars
He's already the only way I could get on that bus is if I got on didn't pay
Those buses that you pay on the way out and run out the back door one of my three. Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
One of my three I'm in a business suit. I'm in a business suit. I can act like
I walk no one ever thought you were going to jump off the side
I've always I don't like that shit. No, no, I'd why did it all the time?
And I'd walk under and I'd walk like two blocks into like 180th
And there was a bodega there you walked in you put your product down
The guy would say 35 25 now. I got too much of this. Uh, give me $10. Okay
Boom, whatever 60 bucks. That's all I need to get the party started 60 bucks
I'd walk two blocks south over the bro. There's a Cuban joint fucking taking them on and good enough for Cuban food
I'd bang out a Cuban sandwich and potato or mame. You know what I'm saying?
Then I take like a free block walk past the Presbyterian the upper Manhattan one. Yeah, whatever that is
And then hop on the fucking a train the express downtown back
Boom, there I am another fucking little hike
But before that hike I take a little detour because there's a guy that sells nickel bags
Really like $15 bag. What the fuck you saving me a joint all the way up town
My favorite is that he had two breakfasts before in 8 a.m. He had his breakfast in the city. You got to get ready
No, no, I didn't have nothing. I left the house with hunger. Oh with hunger. I thought you had breakfast in the morning
No, no, there was no break. No, I would have
I said you could go to downtown and do that there
I would always stop and get Cuban food a little early. Oh, that's the Cuban steak sandwich
You know my favorite in those days is a cheese omelet with crinkle-cart fries and white toast with butter on that motherfucker
With a coke with ice cubes in that motherfucker forget the water. I don't want no water
If I want water, I'll tell you get that fucking
Get that contamination away from me. I never drank water back there. Really? Fuck no
What was it? Was it like a thing when people were like where they're afraid of the water? You're just like no
I drink water. I'm surrounded by the best
In 1993 Schnappel used to make this drink
Please talk with me if you remember schnappel had this schnappel schnappel had this drink
If all the other drinks are 16 ounces the big ones
No schnappel had an eight ounce special vitamin clear drink that tasted really sweet and delicious special vitamin
I love him man. He's something saying who you think you're dealing with Joey bananas
This is 1993 and they discontinued them, but you wake up all coked up. That's what you went for
I get one of those and I'd be ready to go. I'm gonna schnappel. You know what I'm saying?
That's amazing. I've never heard him make this thing smaller
Fat the smaller ones. I know this is one of the fat lady first head. Oh, yeah
Did the thing have a little fact at the top still think a little bottle all fruit natural drink and a jizer
This was way before they had gingseng in it or something people lost their mind
In those days people were still on gingseng nobody was there
I'm with the chinese you fuck
I
Gingseng schnappel
Is that because you were hanging out at like uh
Hash ways and you just like solid deliveries like how do you know all these weird drinks?
And there was only two places that had that schnappel one of them was
hash ways
And the other one was a little fucking lottery place
In clear side park, maybe
Fairview
On that fucking street there. Oh my god
And you would go in there get like a lottery ticket and they had them there was a little eight ounce ones
And how I knew was because when I used to hook up with my boy, we go into the city
Connect I thought we was gonna let's go over and pick up two schnappels to get the night started on the right foot. You know what I'm saying?
You get that little juice inside of you and I think it really harm you
Would you throw up brother?
Who's that me? I'm gonna uh

Some old regular and shit. I grew up on Long Island. Did you really? Yeah, we're close to those clubs Smith town Smith town
Now what is that Suffolk County? We're about in like 20 minutes into Suffolk County. That's where I was born. Yeah

So like the 90s were the drugs that we did
Special k I didn't really fuck with that stuff
But it was because I heard it was horse tranquilizer
But our weed was decent
No one really did coke but now when you go back they called sniff town coke heroin

And all seen the cops were behind them and he goes. Oh my god. Thank god because he thought people were chasing them
He goes I went to the cops like fucking. Oh, thank god. You hear these five guys are chasing me
It was the most

And I was like cancel that this is what I'm watching remember
He was talking about going outside during like half time of that Celtics games
In his uniform like how is that true you hurdle you were growing up from all this was going on
I don't remember from then. I saw this. This is an older 30 for 30. I've seen this guy a year or two ago
It was really good. It's uh
It's crazy. Well, especially
I don't know. I just you don't think it's gonna be
A nice looking white guy. You just don't some most of the time when you think about
That like that affecting someone and it just destroyed his life getting clean and going back home and
Like losing it again like listen as soon as I saw it and he had it under control. Mm-hmm. I knew
This didn't end like this. I was I was there. I was there. I went to prison
You understand me. I had it under control too. Yep till three days
Who's like it it took like a day to get on the control like seriously
You know how ashamed I am of that like I just came out of the penal fucking code
I learned my lesson, but you know what I'm going for a fucking taste
You think about that that's fucking creep, but I you know it. It's it's your pattern, bro
And when they sent him home, he was done done once you go home
You're done. You're back to those fucking ills. I mean he was in

Pills and heroin were tough in the 90s, man
But heroin's been tough
For the last fucking 80 years, man
It's destroyed lives, man. Yeah, it really has
And you know, it's nice to watch bumpy johnson the day. I I loved american gangsta
And I've loved all that shit, but I remember new york city in the late 60s and 70s
I remember going to my mom's dry cleaners and
Those were the bad people in those days those were the people that were going into your business in those days with a gun
And go and give me your money with those people that you'd see nodding on the corner
Waiting for the light to change and all of a sudden they'd wake up
And they'd look around and they'd straighten their faces zombies
And they'd walk across the street and then they'd stop again somewhere to smoke a cigarette
And they'd fall half asleep and you would see this as a child. They saw this shit. I'm like wow
And my mom would call them tecatos
That's what you called heroin people in those days really tecatos
That's I mean it was so cheap
Three dollars five dollars done done two three times you go downtown in those days to china town
When I was a kid, I knew I had a friend that mingled in heroin
He wasn't like I didn't hang out with him. He was much older than me, you know what I'm saying?
But I would go down there with him
And it was tremendous
It was tremendous because I was a kid
And I had a partner and he would walk us into a bar and buy his beers and a bowl of chili and go i'll be back
Order me something and he'd fucking leave he'd go cop and he'd come back
And then he'd give us money and go go across the street to washington square park
And we'd walk across the street and we'd get up to eight valleys of ten dollars
And come back and then we eat the chili drink to be and he dropped us back to jersey
We were like his decoy we worked on him he's a plumber
God rest his soul. He was my goomba. I loved him quailudes is the one I wish I never did a quailude
But I wish I could fucking I heard tremendous you just like one or two and you just were a fucking set
What happened was again like everything I see
The quailude the fucking mdma the fucking
Jerry's kid. What was it? What was it? What were you doing in college the special k special k all that shit? It's just uh
It's a different name for the same kids
It's a different it's a different name for the same similar product. Yeah that they just mixed and added
You know, there was about ecstasy. Is that the same ecstasy?
They added heroin to it and it gives you this weird thing and people were dying people sweating the death
What the fuck knows, you know, it's all it always started with the same thing
The quailude was like a pharmaceutical. Yeah
What what happened was
This is interesting that you brought this up. Mm-hmm what happened was
People started pirating them, you know, Lee's a genius
Lee wouldn't they bought through four to two quailudes took him
Got so fucking high. He goes. I want to know I want in on this. He's a chemistry student
He was almost in my time playing with fucking monkeys and fucking
You know playing with mice. What do I give a fuck if a mice gets cancer? You know what I'm saying?
What's the resolution uncle joey? I'm doing is to make a living
He takes that thought they would take those quailudes
Break them down. However, they do it chemically. I'm no fucking. I don't know nothing about this shit and they would
Poked them and they were pirates
But what these motherfuckers didn't tell you what these things were just a tad stronger
Than what you usually got
So here you are popping this pharmacy ones
And you're having the cocktail because they already told you but when you got the fucking thing
They I look you in the eye and I go, Lee, where you going tonight? Me and Paula
We're gonna go to a bar. We're gonna pop a quailude. Listen. I'm gonna tell you is one fucking time
I have one cocktail and a glass of water and call a fucking uber
I'm not pleased do me the favor
Promise me. I'm not gonna fucking give you this school is lewd
I promise you but these college kids said fuck it. We can make the lewd make him for a dollar selling for two
They don't give a fuck
We make them for any sense and selling for two. What are you nuts? You buying for two selling for four?
Hello, you walk into a bar in those days and go, what do you go up to a guy like me and go joey
Tell me what you think pop it
And four minutes later. I got a cocktail because right away you drink nobody ever did a quailude drink water
Anybody who did a quail leave me at four. I had a cocktail even at four in the afternoon
We'll go hold on one second. Let me get the strongest. Whatever you got the bucket the garage
Terminal juice oil whatever you got they pop a quail
And they get fucking lit like you just get lit but you got soft
Loose
Everything got really soft and all of a sudden you started going in and out
Like you'd be there and you'd be giggling and listening to the music
But you'd be going in and out in and out in and out until finally
You just short circuit and then the next morning you just wake up thirsty a chick next to you
Some guy naked in front of you like it was that
It wasn't like that for me like it happened a few times with those biscuits. I
I started eating my first
When I get my first quail because they stop making them then right?
They just stop making like an outlaw them but now these genius kids like they only had the
Juice fuck you bitches. They got the blueprint
But here's the problem like I told on the Joe Rogan podcast from time to time
When these guys before they became fucking pill manufacturers
They didn't get the right table or they didn't look at the flooring
because now
All the tables because the the flooring was off
The tables are like this
So let me tell you what happens when your table is crooked
That means when they place the pills on there to dry
Right or whatever the fuck they're making
The pills the juice drips down to the bottom right
The quail juice drips down to the bottom. So these pills are fucking so those pills are fucking gorilla biscuits to the max
And these other ones are kind of done. They'll get like a like a 16 year old high for an hour or two
And oh my god, I did this quailer meanwhile some guy like means like I didn't do nothing to me
Right. So now let me tell you what happens. You're taking two of those ones down there
They both go into the same gorilla mix and you settle them in the street
So 50 a gorilla mix and 50 are just uh, uh, right? Okay
So me and you were like, how do you know which one's gorilla mix? I never know
You don't know what you know the beauty of this me and you go out on a Friday night
Well, he was where we're doing today. We're going to Joe and Mary's how much you got I got 80
I got 75. What do you want to do? I don't know that
It's so ominous. What do you want to do with 155?
This guy's a nice guy. He would actually
Look me in the face and believe you go
Man, listen, I don't want to get too fucked up. Let's just do a half gram. I knew I had them
Right there right away. Just get one shirt. How much I have gram cost 45. Just give me 20
I don't even pay for the first five because I got a fucking goldfish. Put your money away
That's mine later. Don't worry about nothing. I hope you got a pencil and a paper if I owe you money. All right
And we take like a fucking
We take like a four dollar quailude
But it's a dud
It's one of the duds, right? So guys like you and me a professional
We're kind of high but not really
Now we're kind of disappointed, you know, man
So we sit there and we drink a couple more fucking lila the bartender there the one who had a wig and she had a dog
Then it was like epileptic me some piss on
Fucked up, right?
She'd make you these vodka harvest juices that were white
We were fucking 17
We were 17 these vodka harvest juices just had a touch harvest juice in the top
The rest was just fucking vodka
And we'd be blasting those things and that quail wouldn't hit us it would hit us
But Molly now we get a look and we gotta go into emergency guys just
We gotta pop the second one
So we take that second one, which is the gorilla biscuit of debt and we pop that motherfucker
But that one takes a little while to hit us and that time flocko shows up. What do you got?
What are you holding? Give me another one. Give them the money. Don't worry about nothing. I'll catch you tuesday
Now we're in the bathroom in the middle of all this
We get hit with the quail with the debt
Now you're at the bar and rock is burping the fucking thing
The room is just moving
If there's music your ears
Are sensitive as shit, which is really weird to describe
You can't cover them because everybody think you're fucking in fact
They want an ambulance goes by those people that cover they here shoot them
All those people just weak fuck you never cover here. You stand there like a soldier
Cover here is like a fucking half a fruit cake. That's how I know what side of the fucking fence you're hanging on
Covering your ears
You don't know how many times I remember my friend's uncle died or so. No
Where I was living
His mom died
and he had
his
The black suit that he was in the way of the wake the next day
I had moved in with the ruddies
and uh
Maybe uh, april of 81
This is june of 82
July of 82 maybe something like that
may of 82
I'm at joe mary's throwing down those fucking white
vodka aroususes
I'm doing bumps and a little spoon with a little bottle and shit. I had the whole kit
And I'm eating those gorilla biscuits
I go home. I eat a piece of chicken to stop the spins
And I sit in his favorite chair his suits ready and as I'm sleeping all of a sudden I wake up in the middle of the night
I start puking on his suit
I almost got thrown out for that one
but that was
Gorilla biscuits
But then I learned you the secret to gorilla biscuits was like any other pill
Can't drink with it. Yeah
Enjoy the pill. That's where it gets bad
Yeah, when you start to mix that's what you're already drunk though. Was that bad then? That's horrible horrible
What it would do
I would see fucking four years right now. Yeah, I swear to god. I would get to my friend's mother was dying
Listen, again, he wasn't my friend. He was an associate
His mother was dying of cancer in ninth. His mother was dying of cancer since like 78
She's gonna be your friend in those days that used to send her these things called two monos at 66
This is all that was at the number that was on the side of them
On the side of them at 66 like the planes. It was the devil, but not really. You know what I'm saying? It was missing the six
She would fucking take those pills and sell them for 20 a piece. Oh my god
I remember splitting one one night. Oh my god
That's what the with the government kept for the for the real sick people
But it knows that yeah, but in those days my mom had just died
That's the only thing that would kill the pain me going on either and experiment them with those fucking uh, yeah
Zombo pills and shit. Oh, no, man. I mean those. Yeah, I would eat them. There was a
That's right. We had the janitor. What's that?
We had a janitor that used to come in from the high school
He was our janitor our high school had a very unique janitorial system. We had benny and the jet
Benny and the jet was a janitor. It was like 60. He was like grandpa from the months
He's been real tall and skinny and I knew what his soft spot was. He loved blackberry brandy. So I would go up to him
How'd you figure that out?
Would you see him drinking it? Because he would buy blackberry brandy every day from the liquor store and the guy told me one day
And I'd feel him out. That's like joey's
Inside stocks. He's like a stockbroker who got inside information. He's like, this is what your problem is
We don't go to the talk to the liquor store guys. I always have homeless
I had to stay in those days and inquisitive. I was kind of embarrassed
I was kind of embarrassed to be living on your couch. So the least I could do run as easy in those days is get up and get out
Fold my fucking. Yeah, you know, you know, you're flexing in your house and you wake up
They're watching game shows
Breakfast is on the table. Fucking sheets are still on the couch. Sheets are still on the couch. I didn't want it
I wanted you to always let me stay at your house. Thank you
So I would get up and you wake up and go, what did this kid go? I mean, that's what I wanted you to go
Yeah, don't worry about when I got 10 bucks. Let me go hustle. I go to the diner. He eggs like a doctor
Now I got four bucks
But I need six to get into the city and get a nickel back and you just hustle, you know, I'm saying
there's just uh
I don't know what I was talking about. I'm so fucking no the janitor you're saying. Oh, all right
So this janitor so it was benny and the jet. So once I figured out that
Benny was hooked on blackberry brandy. I would see him in the morning to go benny
I got a bottle of blackberry brandy. I'm holding for you till later when
One day I'm so crazy. I'm in a class. He actually knocked on the fucking door. He has the teacher we can talk to
Benny we can't be doing this outside. And then Benny. I'm in ninth grade. Benny didn't have much. What do you do?
Benny, this is social studies. Leave me alone. All right
Miss Gibson's doing it faster than that
Oh my god, so benny
Benny went off the deep end one day. I didn't give him a bottle of blackberry after I put him through a month of torture
Every day's like where's the blackberry? Do you like a half empty it out and put like water?
No, no, no, I gave him like a big bottle like the whole pocket when the long cons act along
Listen to this. I give
I treat him good for like three days
first day I give him like the
Not the half but the full. Okay. Yeah, and he looks at me hugs me
Thank you. Where was it because I kept telling him somebody kept hiding there for me
I went to a bit for benny
Every day he's mopping up thinking this is gonna be five days a week. I had benny on the fucking on the slide
Benny's doing all your dirty work. Benny was my dog. Benny's hooking to the school was his wife was a big shot in the office
So if you were cool with her, you were cool with benny. How big how much of a big shot could you be?
Benny was the charge of the janitor's, right?
So monday I give benny a little bottle Tuesday. I give benny a big bottle Wednesday. I hold him out
He got a hold back. You know me. I work him like a jewel. Yeah
You gotta let him go if there's day I give a bottle of like the best blackberry brandy known to mankind
I give it to bottle. Okay. I give him the bottle like I ate in the morning
He goes benny. He makes like whoo like he makes like no
He can hold down the speaker benny, please
Benny please come to the office when I'm mad just coming
That is like six janitors in those days that worked like from eight to four
and then a fourth
Another crew of janitors came in now. They were the fucked walk. They were the fucked up ones
They were the ones that had like fucked up disabilities
They heard voices shit like that. Those are the ones we torch it, you know
So let me finish on benny. Hold on. Let me take a sip of water here
We got benny
I got I forget all about benny
I get benny the fucking bottle I move on with my life. Ha ha ha, you know
I had him on the hook now I owe benny because I I robbed the school
And I had to get back the stuff
And I didn't you know, I wanted to cut a deal with benny like I blow towards the windows and
Got into the thing with a flare, you know me dog
I could always figure it out in those days all for some blackberry brandy
You wanted him to like let you bring something happened that I was trying to get tight with benny
I wanted something from all the scales
There were the scales in those days in the science room. So we would steal this triple beams
There were 35 a piece hot in the street anywhere 10 minutes. They went like fucking hot cakes
I ended up robbing all the scales me and this dude and we remain them nameless. No no names. No names showy. So
So that benny one night they're in a fucking basketball game
Third quarter of the basketball game. I gave him the bottle
And fucking ate them all and this thing
There's no way you could have drank it
Guess what he drank it. Lee you ready for this? Let me tell you what benny does lee. I'm not ready for it. What?
They're in the basketball game
Benny has the chains to lock up the doors
And what do you think he does he passes out? He puts chains on his hand
And he walks down the fucking aisle like he's fucking
Louis Lamar walking on his side rope and people are clapping and people are calling benny and the jet
His eyeballs are red. He's reek of a blackberry pranthe
I fucked up benny and the jet dog. Where's tony bet it? Oh my god. Oh

So
All right, so we had we had nick the greek
But we had the nighttime janitor now in mckinley school. We had eagle eye. We had a
What was this thing? He would walk into the gym. All right, you guys got to get out of here
Go fuck yourself eagle eye. He had one of those eyes that went up and he went
Oh, mckinley was rough
We were rough on those janitors. There was like three janitors there that were kind of mental that had problems
All of them got tortured all three of them different ways. I still remember fucking that guy, but now
I get to the hospital eagle eye
I get to the high school and there's this guy that never bothered nobody
You could tell somewhere along the line. He was traumatized at a young age or something
And he was okay. He said hi to you or something like that
I don't know what happened
One night I got caught drinking or something like that
With another buddy of mine and for some reason in my fucking head
I'm like this motherfucker rather side because he saw us going into the bathroom
And in those days, I wanted to kill my stepdad. I was pissed. I was real revenge. I

You know
Now let me get the year correct. I don't fuck nobody over here
So it's 83
I'm living with Ferney in the basement
I'm making a little bit of money
I'm doing all right. I'm on the street narrow kind of
Except for Friday and Saturday, you know, you you do you use late ball in the city
Some nights are good. Some nights are bad. Whatever. No relationships. Me and a guy shared a room, you know, that's it
That's it. He was as crazy as I was some nights. We went out together. We loved each other. He was my brother
Today he's got the hiv. It's a fucking nightmare
But not from hanging out with me. He got that afterward banging
It's one Friday night. I meant the fucking bar
I'm like three or four people
And we're doing a couple bumps
Who the fuck knows the time the jukebox and then comes to jether
Like a look what we got here
So I put a beer next time there was like a little sandwich crate that you could go and eat sandwich
Or the kids John Cowan worked next door at Chickadee
We had chicken delight down the corner. Oh really?
But then we had Chickadee right next door and John would always
When the Chickadee would close he would always bring the last pieces of chicken into the bar
So they sat there all night at night. They were no good. You were coked up
Nobody would touch the chicken one time they had a birthday party about an ice cream cake the cake melted
Nobody touched everybody in there was snorting coke, bro
It was just a coke bar when we were kids
Lila gave you fucking thick drinks
And in comes his jam and he's rocking and rolling and I'm a fucking crepe klep klepto fucking thief
And I walk over and I see his jacket
And I stick my hand in the keys and there's keys in one pocket and I go around them
And what do you think we got there a fucking pill case?
Take the pill case out I go in the bathroom. Holy shit
He's got like fucking 15 volumes in here. I take all the volumes. I'll close it up
Put the pill case back in his pocket, you know me
He's got like three or four different kind of pills in there, but I got the v's. I'm good
I'm like me popping with these v's right now at this bar at this time. You know who I am
I'm like say fucking Jude right now people suck my dick for two tens right now. He had the tens with the v's in them
Whole school you look at those in drool if you're a professional
You want to go home and give mama a stab and that fucking horn ain't gonna work tonight
So I kept doing this
Every Friday I built like a little network of guys

You know what I'm saying? He had this thing
He was juicing. There's the beginning of his juicing. We were a few we had him doing push-ups at bars
We would take him to bars and go down and do a bump. Listen. Come here

But the you know some of the none of this shit was safe
You know
But it's fine. It was it's never seemed dangerous in the moment
I'm so sorry so
Darren beats the fuck out of this guy
This is this seems dangerous. Hold on. We drag him. Oh good 30 feet to a vfw and we throw him over the fence

Darren's like fucking this guy's gonna be missing an act or whatever. He piles more snow on top of him
We go back in the bar by that time the coke shows up. We do bumps. We celebrate. We forget all about the whole fucking situation
But an hour later, we see fucking red lights everywhere, right? And then we got the bar surrounded
Come out right now. We know who you are. So I look around the bar. I got like fucking two eight balls in my pocket
I'm going down
But I look around and I see I know one of the cops
My job is to get out there and get to him
If I can get to him I'll put this eight ball in my hand and shake his hand and tell him we're good
I don't know what happened here. You know, say get the fuck out of here master plan
I'm sitting there cops are getting out of their car, but they're not running in like swat. Yeah, they're like, what is this a fucking joke?
You know, they're all in the middle of the street. The door opens up my idiot friends walk out
I see the cops rushing them. I get out the right time. I see my buddy. Hey, what's going on?

That's a weird you like it. I think it's too big for me. Yeah, but it bothers me. It's it does
It is big. It bothers me. That's what bothers me. That's number one
number two
Jesus christ, you want your comedy to be pure?
Really? I gotta hear music. That's my only beef. Yeah, I know give me the respect I deserve
I've been fighting them all my fucking life. I've been on the set for six years
Taking all this from kids. I could chop up in half. You know what I'm saying? Yeah
They don't even have to win at me now. You want me to come down here and while I'm on stage
I gotta hear music, you know
It's uh, but it's a great venue. It's yeah, it's nice. It's big big hotel's nice
But yeah, the music next door a lot of these places that were like have those music bars the audio bars
I don't think the audience can hear it though. Yeah, but we hear it
But it doesn't you know, they gotta let me tell you something about the improv's
They invest in their sound systems. I gotta get them there. They really work hard
And if there's a flaw and you tell them
They fix it. Yeah, and then they call you the next day. You know, hey, we fixed that thing. You like it's a fuck
That was last night. I'm good. Yeah, I'm in phoenix. You know, I'm in fucking off the dinner. Yeah, they um
You know, they curtain off that little back part if it's not there's no one back there, but I like that room
I just like I've always had fun there. I like tempi too
I just came up in tempi. Yeah, it's sentimental
I remember I did it a couple times the old before they reconstructed it. I like that that was always a fun
Like a a pride destination. Yeah, your pride destinations in kami like
When you first got into county that the three cities that let you know you were revived san francisco
If I was like, all right, I'm gonna do san francisco denver
Comedy works. I heard always heard was unbelievable
cap city in austin
dc improv
Comedy cellar in new york
Those are the ones that I heard that were like, you know
Have you been you do the comedy cellar a lot? No, I've never done the comedy cellar in new york
But you know, those are the ones that I've always heard were unbelievable
Is that the ones I mean?
Like no, no, my question to you is like
When I went to boston when I got a recommendation to play a club outside of boston
I knew I was gonna get somewhere
Like comedy was like, they didn't know I was a mantra. You're all
This was a pivotal city for me. There's those pivotal cities where you when you start now. Yeah, that's the question
Chicago and zany's in chicago. I built an audience up there
Remember selling out there before anywhere else the show took place in chicago
And then I think that that's where my audience got biggest fastest
I like that club, you know, the downtown one's cool. I really like that one
But that's a fun. That was like my first big area
Zany's in chicago
Boston's was good. Boston was great. I remember when I did the will where I was excited about that
That was fun. It was exciting. They got me excited about that. That was a good one. I just uh
There's one part of this thing when you hate when the business becomes involved. You like the purity and just yeah
You just want to go to the store and do that 15 dollar set and get out of there
And I have to worry about a check or from a sold out and not sold out and who's pissed and who's not pissed
Well, for me the reason why I like I was excited to do the for him and for joey to do the wilbur
Was because I went there as a kid like that's the big theater in Boston. Yeah
Like what big did you guys do like a big theater in jersey or something? That was like that you went to as a kid
That was pretty cool. I mean the coliseum, but no one ever dice. I think did the coliseum
No, I'm like, did you do anything?
I have have you gone back home. Oh governors on long island
They put me on their comedy wall fame from long island, which I thought was really cool. I like that club too
I like that club. Yeah
Um
That was like that was the home club that my parents would go see comedy at
Well, I first got it moved to LA. I had to go to new york for something. This is such a weird
It was a weird trip. I went to new york
I was supposed to showcase a governor's it was like a tuesday night
But then the manager called me and said, you know what? It's a dark club
It had become fucked up for a while and those guys took it over and said it again and stuff
But that was a weird trip because I turned down that
I turned out another showcase like the comic strip like this manager
I had knew that comedy thing new york city. Uh-huh, but he also told me
To make a tape of myself to when stand up while I was here and drop it off an hbo
That they're casting a show called the sopranos
And I remember going like okay, so why would I go to a song about singers?
I was like, fuck that shit. I'm not going on

That's what I got really good at. I got so good at it
Dad I got addicted to booking but not wanting to shoot when they call me for wardrobe. I go god damn it
And so were you you got addicted to it for a while. You really got into it the acting the producer's sessions the second session
Fuck the second sessions. Yeah, I remember saying to you. It's a game of numbers
And it's so weird how it was like it was like you lost
In your mind it seemed like you lost a hundred jobs in a row
It all of a sudden boom effects called the day you were for six seasons. Yeah
It's unbelievable
But yeah, those those years of just being like I went I got to this level this year
I didn't book one the next year you book a pilot doesn't go
Just you know that whole thing where you're like, I'm in the room
trying the best I can
Trying to figure it out as I go along
Who we would see in the rooms who we would test for what roles I remember Julie Julie Ashton
bringing both of us in right now you should be a mind reader
Because that's all I can think about right now is Julie Ashton. Yeah, like when I think about my comedy career
Three pilots
Four pilots she put me in. Yeah, she's the best one of them at five in the afternoon
Corp time was seven
1500 go to fox
NYPD
2063
That didn't have a chance in the hell you understand me rocket ships in new york
People getting shot by lasers. I was a newspaper guy. Good luck. Oh my god
I think these stars. How many stars did I have? I had one star. That's all you need trust me amazing
It's uh, I would I think till today Julie still calls me and I hope to see her
16 years later
That's crazy
That we've been working for that lady for 16 years everything would happen with me. She called to say hey
We're good
I love you
She's a good woman
let me see
I booked lewis but she booked me in lewis
Whatever's pilot. Oh, yeah, she booked me in NYPD 2069
That's amazing
She booked me in uh
Happy hour
Oh, really then they cut me out after the pilot tanks of shit that they were
Thanks to shit those people now I see them around
And they can't even look me in the eyeball and shit they had to but they were improv actors though
Two of them were commercial actors
Now they're fucking the five people on our show and they couldn't hire the right janitor
Finally I'd bring uncle joey into school them in the school of comedy and they they're fucking joey's drop
They didn't at that time at that time. I was that good already on stage. I had done the longest yard
There's nothing to be fucking you guys are fucking amateurs
Compared to what a fucking dungeons. I've been
You know what I'm saying? I remember the the uh the longest yard
Everyone coming out after hanging out with us at the comedy store that was in the movie and saying how unbelievably
Fucking funny you were the entire time down there. Oh, I was killing all those motherfuckers killing everyone
I was killing I was in you were gone. Where were you guys? New mexico? New mexico
I
New mexico for like five days. I just watched
Listen like god blessed me. It's whoever
They called me down there and I gotta tell you something. I was kind of pissed and I thought I got down and lifted the schedule like
Yeah, you know even shoot until next week
Yeah, what am I here for but they were giving me per diem. Yeah buck a day. Mm-hmm. They had me in fucking the hotel
Santa Fe which is
Nice, we're lucio ball. That's where everybody goes Brad Pitt. That's the best there is. Yep
Indians fucking tremendous food, you know, just tremendous fucking food
They had me in that room for fucking
Seven days before I did anything
So for the first three or four days, I went to this down there, you know
Motherfuckers like I said, but I got to hang out the number. Yep. I brought the vibe is a little notepad
I broke my sides over just to make believe I was going on my side, but not really
I'm making notes to what the fuck. I'm seeing how you're shooting this
How he's working with the actors. I was you know, I didn't know
Wait, I was doing I was doing one line for fucking thing before that
Yeah, my first scene was going to be like a fucking eight liner. Yeah
In an insombo with eight gorillas talking at one time. That's like, uh, yeah, that first line I do uh
Whatever the fuck it is
Tree out. Yeah, what the fuck's the tree out? Yeah. That was it dog. And all of a sudden there was eight people
I'd never done that before. Yeah, wait. Thanks. So many teachers. I don't do that. They teach you how to do mean you
I'm new york city. I can do like I love getting interviewed by the cops. That's my number one job
You got a guy get interviewed by the cops. I'm not gonna brand. Oh, that's how good I am at that
No, but we were both fighting for our lives trying to get acting jobs. Yeah movies
We had conversations about shit at night and I by that point I had figured out it was fucking
Wasn't even about your performance. It was just about there was so many many getting factors variables different ways
Didn't matter what you know, just luck of the thing that worked out at the right time
The stars always have to be aligned. Yeah
Joe you always talk about focus. So why why can't you why why didn't you just focus all of your energies on stand-up?
Like why are you even worrying about acting?
Because at that point my stand-up was going nowhere
My stand-up was going nowhere and I figured out that
Montreal didn't want me. There was no comedy agents wanted me
There was no comedy man managers that spoke to me, but
If I could act I could go through the back door
By the time they catch up with my stand-up my stand will be ready for
So if I could act little by little see
Like I told you or somebody else in this town as a young comic you come here
You ain't dick. You could be the funniest guy at all those open mics
They're gonna promote you to be a regular at the store. You ain't dick the u-book or commercial. Yep
That's how I remember it. Okay, because tell them why because now you become viable. Yeah, that's who you become
You're letting me know. I'm at home one night. I own the improv Embraer
You've been bugging me for a year to do a guest spot
You're still watching commercials at this point. You're still watching commercials. It's 11 30. You're stoned
And there's Steve Renize easy on a fucking motor oil commercial
During the 11 o'clock news. Holy shit. I'm a bookhead for one of those shit weekends that we can't get rid of
You know, and they'll give you an mc spot. Yeah, because
They know now that you might go somewhere
You just became somebody by booking that commercial part of a club. That's it when I booked the Taco Bell commercial
It was all over like people were talking to me. I booked the pilot for cbs. Nobody knew about it. Yep
Even if you don't talk like if you don't talk you're cool. It's yeah. Yeah. McDonald's was my first commercial
I booked the McDonald's. I'm gonna take it a book of commercial in those days. I booked it in 2005
So four years
Three and a half years
How often we go on editions? I mean the first year it was like
They they barely they sent you out of like one every if you didn't book it right away like one a month
And then and then you know, you get like a callback or a couple callbacks
And then before you know it you're they're like you're in callbacks all the time and then you book one then you go
You know, then they're like, all right
I remember judo freeland had booked like 87 commercials. Yeah
Like and that's before he became and they take you serious and they go, okay, let's I've seen you before
Have I seen you? Yeah. Now you hop over from commercial actor to real actor, which it's tough sometimes
A lot of people get like that AT&T guy. You'll never you'll see him in the spring commercial
But you'll never see him in the movie opposite jacuzzo or fucking johnny bananas or something like that
It's crazy how I knew that I would eventually
Like everything I would get one line one line one line then I went on a three liner
Tear for a while and then I went in a five liner only with credits rolling
Yep
The first I went on a three movie tear where the credits ran through me in the first fucking five minutes of the movie
I remember going from commercials
I'd done two commercials and then I booked a guest star on the show called kitchen confidential
With bradley cooper was a fox show and I was going to play a banker who was running out on a check
I go wall street guy
And he was like ran the restaurant. So he would run after me and call the cops
So it was one like one scene but four lines and then I run out the door
so
I remember hanging out on set and trying to see what the difference is it between this is the same thing as a
commercial I don't even commercial, you know, they didn't treat you very well
So then I did this and they're covering angles and this and that the director's like more
Talking to you and it's the reality show like the re-enactment. No, no, no. This was a real scripted show. Okay. Yeah
And so he would you know, like just trying to learn about the differences like what's the next level going to be like?
All right, this is television. This is what this feels like. It's different than commercials
They kind of have more money take more time on things. They kind of move it differently
So I remember going from that to that and kind of learning the level as I got there
You know, I wanted to take you to get the leak
You that was in 2009
So nine years. Yeah, I've done a couple pilots. I did one show that went for like 12 episodes
in
uh,
six
And then a couple pilots that didn't go after that then that paul blart movie was between that too
That was great because that was another one. There was in boston
For three months. We shoot the movie. I get there. I had like 10 day gaps
You know, but you know, my girlfriend would come out and fly out and hang out, you know
So it was great like hanging out in the hotel. But yeah, those big breaks are fun. Kevin used to give us all this shit
The burlington mall, right? The burlington mall. He would give us some legal seafoods right on the that's right
We used to fucking eat there
Dude, I grew up I grew up without legal seafoods and the high top seeds right at the front
It was the best job because we would uh
Would they realize because the mall was still open. We kind of shoot kevin stuff at night
So I had like business man hours. My call time wasn't until noon
And then I would work till
eight
Be home back at the hotel by 8 30 then nice dinner, you know, and then get into the night whatever I wanted to do
Have long stretches off four or five days off. It's fucking great. And they just paid you run a film. It was awesome
That and then the league
It was a different
I get quiet. I just started getting calls
About a week and a half ago people like
Have you been going off the pilot season by the goal? I didn't even know it was pilot season. Yeah, I just started
And uh, I was and like at this point I'm not even concerned the whites are concerned myself
I think I gave up about five years ago six years ago. I finally said this is the reality of it
Unless I write a show somebody writes me in from the very beginning
A producer that believes in me
This ain't gonna happen. I don't want to go in no half way to them book it
Then you're too funny for him
So they replace you with fucking white johnny
And there you are and they're fucking friends. You know what I'm saying? Fuck that and that's a p
You know, that's part of the business a lot of great people listen
Joe Rogan got the role because Ray Romano got fired. How fucking crazy is that sir? You figure it out
Didn't lea remony get something on friends and then yeah
Really? Yeah, something like that. I feel that's what happened. She was in she was on the original friends cast
Maybe you know someone always gets fired at the table read those table reads
They don't do them for to just hear everything out loud
They're doing it
Because I remember when I sat down on my first one ever
Kurt Fuller who was playing the dad on the show. It's like old
Old character actor ghost busters too, right? You've seen him all over the place
He turns and he looks at me goes how you feel? I'm like, great. I'm excited about this. He's like, you know
Someone always just give it your all because someone always gets fired one of us
It's gonna be gone after this fucking thing and he was right. They fired one of the dudes
After the show a book and you know, you find out on the way to the your car
That's how quick it happens
You you're done with the bagel after everyone says hello great job everyone you walk towards your car
By the time you get to your car your agent's on the phone. Hey, we got to talk
What happened in there?
Jesus and she auditioned for monica. Yeah, but she didn't get it. Oh, she didn't get it. I fucking got fired
From a movie in jamaica, which I didn't care and they were under there was there was a sag movie
But they didn't really get the contract and sag nobody said the sag rep
The fucking jamaica was like a nudist colony
What else did I get fired from I got fired from something else?
A movie that I got with a bunch of fucking mooks. I didn't want to do it
And I just called them and said i'm done done and we go you're fired. Okay. Fuck it. But then
What am I most fucking infamous finds that nobody knows about as I got fired
From a telomune dog show
What from a cuban telomune dog show
And guess what about two years ago? I'm in the park with my daughter and my wife
We're walking around the park and the guy sees me and goes hello. How are you an old son?
He goes can I talk to you for a second? I just want you to know I never saw you again after that time
When they fired you had nothing to do with me one of the producers just did not like you
And I was like, okay. Thank you for telling me 18 years later, which I never lost nothing. They paid for my after
Oh, really? It was a thousand dollars after
That thousand dollars there was a join me or something. Yeah, and then that was like 98
I went down to the audition on the monday. I guess my spanish got away with it. But at the table read
I thought uh, what is that like the blocking? Yeah, I just ate the big dick and then they had a minute of pause
And these cubans started talking, you know
And I'm like, what part are you from now like this place and
And these were all these cubans that were high level. I thought they were high level. No, I didn't grow up in
Union city we grew up in
914 Rockland county because my father didn't want to be around cubans. It was type
That was weird
Fuck this

That's terrible. That's that's that's you know, because maybe you're like
Are they are they laughing? I feel like they're laughing like they heard it before and they're laughing at me
Lee you think you're going crazy
It's that quick that you get to as you're saying the joke
You don't know if they're laughing because you're fucked up. Yep. Sometimes I eat a star of denny
It's the second show

My mind stops afloat. You know the second show whether you prove your point in the first show
So the second show i'm gonna take a couple fucking jabs

Yeah, that's so much fun. That's and I like doing that because then I go
I didn't do any of those jokes. Yep
Thank god
I didn't have to do any of those jokes all over again
I'm sitting up there going that I do this joke that I do this joke
It's only one o'clock at night. I've been up since seven
My first joint was at seven thirty. What are you on? Nobody could withstand that memory thing. It's 10 o'clock the fuck
Nobody can smoke when I smoke all day and show up at 11 and do two shows
No
Not too many people but most people the second show that that camera hits you
When that fucking you get on that stage and depending on how the audience is
You get instant anxiety sometimes for me, man
I fought a little bit this year and i'm okay with it now the store gives it to me
Yeah
When I go to the store sometimes as i'm walking up those steps
If I eat an edible I forget and I run up those steps and I get a little anxiety after six steps
That takes me to a different planet. I gotta sit in mitzi's chair
And let my nerves come down
How many seasons is the fucking league up? We went seven you loved it. Love doing it. Where'd you shoot?
In on location in the valley usually and then a couple days downtown sometimes
The bar was downtown that we shot at some office stuff downtown
But yeah valley it was a blast
I love doing it. I like going to work, you know
I like this, you know, it was same crew same people for the most part. It was fun
But yeah, you know, would you want to do it again?
I would like to do a show as I mean, I would love to do a show as fun as that

And for some reason I took this book off the shelf and when they moved me I kept the book
And I remember being there one night and listening to fucking black people yelling all night and shit
In the middle of this there was like a light and I opened up the book and I said, I really like the first time pages
And for some reason it just took me somewhere else
And the next day I couldn't wait to wake up to read in the light
And it was basically about a guy who made a bunch of fucking geetus
With this company and then they went to iran and they got captured
So they came back to the states
And they had captured like four of the office members
And then he went to kissinger and talked to kissinger
Jesus, but he made a promise to the employees families that they would be home
For christmas dinner
