Less than a two-year like clock on it. You know, they're going to vegas like the raiders are kicking ass right now
I know man. Yes, no they lost but um, yeah, they're gonna be there for two years while they build a stadium in las vegas
That's like, um breaking out with your wife or your girlfriend
But she gets to live in your house, too
Yeah, but and but and the weird thing is that like I would expect that no one would go they'd be like fuck the raiders
They're leaving we're loyal, bro. It was packed like it was two weeks ago now when
March on lynch was down like they have a dj in oakland stadium in the in the stadium
That's cable's cousin chino. No, it's not. That's what I got
Yeah, man, they gave her glasses cousin is chino the dj from the raiders
And he thought dj in the morning. He's a he's a big fan of um of everybody
But they made each other at Tucson, Arizona. He goes. Hey, man. We look you if your father's such a touch
Yeah, my father's such a touch and then they made they clashed. They made each other as cousins
Small world, man
They're both both other father players
But yeah, I was just impressed with with like the oakland fans because like all the way here right now in la is
That the chargers are empty the rams are half empty
Really the stadiums are apparently apparently the chargers are pretty like almost it's like a home team
That's what I heard for like the await the away team. It's almost like a home game
Yeah, man
The other thing the charge is gonna sell out a game to a new year's eve when they play the raiders there
That's gonna be a raider nation game. I already bought my tickets new year's eve new year's eve, man
Oh raiders oakland raiders visit los angeles for the first time since they left in 1990 something
So wait a second. So the game is on a sunday on a sunday on new year's eve
Jesus christ 11 in the morning 11 in the morning one of the morning one morning one o'clock game
Yeah, yeah 10 no 10
10 o'clock game. They got to get that shit over with her
Because it'll be an amazing game man. Yeah, that's a good game
Just going on new year's eve. You know how crazy it gets joy. Remember that show we did up north and there was the
that was the day that um
that um
Tom Brady did the snuff the the snuff rule. I guess. Oh, no the tuck rule the tuck rule. Yeah, that's like Mike
That's like a new englander's greatest day and enjoy the other night
We were Rodrigo doing a fucking crazy show in Modesto and everybody was pissed off man
Every black guy was pissed off and we were being driven a buzz by black guys
And that's the day you took that that powder, but it was actually meth. Yeah. Yeah, it was meth
I was like in middle school watching a patriots playoff game in the snow and you were doing meth
Oh my god
Do you understand that show was crazy, bro? Everybody wanted to go backstage and party
That whole area
Once you go to Modesto, they're like those little towns there love there like family man
There's nothing to do but do comedy and then get fucked up get fucked up man fucked up
Like they have no shame. You know, they'll tell you I live it man. Don't go out looking for it. We got it right here
Whatever you need everything you want hookers. We got it. You want a dog my fuck my brother wants a pet store
And you go for a drive and there's nothing really in those towns nothing nothing by saying that nothing one fucking club
And you do not want to go in there because you'll get stabbed to death
So you go to a hotel they give you whatever fucking drugs you want
And it's just that simple. I mean, it's uh, it's a fucking shame. I go pass out
You know, these grams of coke I started no pass out
Like I can't fucking believe I'm alive
From all that because I used to walk to that bar. There was a bar you went on Wednesdays
So, yeah, the little irish bar something there was a little bar where the whole wait staff went
Yes, the whole place was if there was 250 people in there the whole place was high on cocaine
The whole place the whole fucking place Lee
You've never seen anything like that that you walk into the fucking room of death
Were there bars just built for people to do cocaine in bro?
Wherever there's a bar with darts. There's cocaine
I don't know cocaine and darts go together. I didn't drive me crazy when I'm snorting coke when somebody's throwing darts
I know man. I always think one of those darts is gonna backfire
I get pissed. I had a my brother the guy I'm going to see his daughter that has the cancer on wednesday
He's a dark guy
So I get a gram of coke with him and next thing I'm fucking shooting darts. I don't want to play fucking darts
So what am I fucking the man? I don't know that should be a shirt man
But man, we go together like darts and coke and the bathroom is always you got to walk faster darts
Yes, so every time you pee you get anxiety because you got to stop the game and walk faster darts
God forbid you don't have your hunting camouflage fucking suit on
And one of those coke heads throws a fucking dart at you. You know, it was a fucking nightmare
It was a fucking nightmare. That's always darts or that stupid rifle game duck hunts
What it is then they have the the best is the dart league
Oh my god, you get together on tuesday and throw darts basically
It's an excuse to get fucking the lit lit on a tuesday. That's all dart league is
By the time you get there, you can see the target by the time you leave. There ain't no fucking target. Okay. It's a it's
Yeah, man, humorous. I'm not putting darts down or anything like that. No, man. Darts is cool, man
I'm just saying darts and drugs
That's a great point you made philly because I grew up in two bars and then that they snorted coke and by the way
They would break the fucking darts out
My anxiety level will go up to a fucking thousand. It seems dangerous. It's this fucking dangerous
If you're coked out man and doing darts is perfect man because your nose already pointing down
So your eyeballs are looking straight ahead. You're ready man. You could do a bump and do a dart. It is fucking crazily fucking darts
I think I picked them up by three times Pittsburgh, man. It's some guys some guys you gotta talk to to get coke
You gotta talk to them
Unless you're in Pittsburgh, bro, it's fucking candlestick bowling and coke
Oh, I miss candle bowling and bowling and fucking getting fucked. There was another thing too, man
I remember I used to go to houston. I used to go to a place on uh saturday nights at midnight
That you went bold and we get coked up and he popped mushrooms and shit
man, and they played heavy metal music and
I miss all that shit that I do man. I do not man. It's gonna i'm coming up on 10 years
Next month really bad. You you're past 10 years. Yes. I stopped doing um cocaine in 2009
Yeah, because I went on a five day binge
Really? So you went even two years after me. Yeah, two years after me after you also going a little crazy in 2008 2009
man
Wow, when did you meet lisa? I met lisa in 2006, but when I met her I was already off
You know, though that one time I picked you up all crazy, you know, and I gave you like 200 dollars to hang out with me for an hour
And you told I even hear my his 50 take him out of here
I don't know if we got the one night you came to my house
And it was the weirdest thing Lee. We didn't even know what we're doing, huh? No Felipe calls me. I go. Yeah, what's up, dawg?
I'm down side. Okay
We're getting a fucking car. This is i'm
I'm heavy-duty junky guys and here's your witness. Okay
He goes, where do you want to go? I go, let's take a ride
I think we smoked a joint we're behind el compadre
I walked in I took a gram off the guy
I got in the car now you had money you wanted to give me the bike coach, but you knew I wouldn't get your coach
You had 60 bucks ready, right and I got in the car in front of Felipe
And you put a whole straw and then you did it all and I did the whole gram
Fucking I looked at him like a guy
I believe it guys. Oh my god. I got dry on the tour on the drive from el compadre to highland and
Fountain I would always it was instinct. That was where I would do at that light
I would snort whatever was in the bag
half of it
And then when I pull up to my house
Whether the front or the back
I would snort the other half of what was in that bag
So when I got on the elevator, I went right upstairs and took a shit
There was no questions asked when I walked in the house
It was to go right to the bathroom and unload the first cocaine shit of the night and no cup ever saw you do a half
I'm a professional we no cop is gonna fucking see that
I could never do that. I could never like be like you, you know, you're you've been doing it for a long time
At that time I was ready to quit. Oh, yeah, it was just a mat. I was just either wait
I would wait to start or to fucking I didn't know what to do and that's what I was doing
I was buying that and guys at the end
I was buying a gram of coke that would kill a mule from el compadre
Yes
And I would do two fucking lines and the whole gram was gone and I would stay high for an hour and 15 minutes
And then I would sit in my living room for an hour thinking of my next move
And then I would figure out the move and go out and get another gram at 1 a.m
You really does that you does that you do
You were like the first person I ever see do a whole bag like the 20 bag. Yeah, and then go
eat a burrito
Like I was me I was like I couldn't eat after I do coke because I want to stay high
You know, I want I wanted to do at that point Felipe my
And this is a scary thing to tell you guys because you're not going to believe it my tolerance
For marijuana was the same kind of tolerance. I had for cocaine at the end soon to do more
I could do I could open up a party with a gram. That's how I opened up tonight
With my own grand how much would Felipe open up with a half a gram
Not even Felipe was a gentleman Felipe would do two or three lines
Or two or three bumps and he was fine. I was a guerrilla Lee. Yeah, nothing has changed from the THC
I just transferred addictions, but at least I know this going in
I've always had a high tolerance
If at 16 17 I was already doing a half gram a night
When I was 16 17 I would buy a half gram go to my friend's house
There was 16 or 17 we'd do two bumps and who do you who do you think finished the rest of that coke at night me?
I'd go home put in fucking black Sabbath on an a-track
With the speakers on and I just sit there all night. Listen to fucking music
Like an asshole and cry think about my mother and cry and shit like that
So I started at 17 with a half a gram already
By the time I went to prison in 86
Before a year before I got locked up before I kidnapped that poor kid
You should have seen when I was doing
You should have seen when I was doing I was probably doing seven g's a day
One of the one in the morning to wait. This is when I was doing it
I couldn't function on it, but I could still do it in the morning. Eat breakfast and live my life
That phase was like for six months where I would get up and do a half gram of coke
Eat breakfast give my ex-wife a stabbing
Eat a pussy the whole fucking thing and eat in the morning and then by the time I got in the car. I was fine
Me I'm more like I was more like a degenerate man. I'm a banger
I would like party like start smoking crack, you know when I started smoking crack, you know, like in 2004 2005
And I was more cracked like I started on Wednesday after the wild coyotes because I had cash
And I would continue to do it till I got tired like to a Sunday
I was still for five days. Like I didn't want to stop bro. I didn't know what I was doing my body
Like I was like man, I used to laugh at him at our mom
What's the name Bonaducci when he had that Bonaducci show
That's right
And he fucking bought that bottle of cranberry juice and I bought a vodka and started drinking it right there in the middle of
Street
I was like far. Okay. What a loser, but then like a week later. I was doing the same thing
Like I was I was like not I just like to just continue. I don't know. I don't know how to stop
I just continue to go five days. No sleep to a brooklyn man
Well, I was a banger for all the bangers. Yeah, but once I got here
I bends in the beginning. There was a couple places you could listen to binge coke
You got to be able to go someplace. Yeah, you got to be able to go someplace. You can't do it at home
What are you gonna do? I'm gonna go home with you and talk about what comedy through eight in the morning
Oh, well this guy's joke. Well, let's put on the now write a script
No, and then we talk about how we got into comedy and how our father be this. I don't want to hear that shit
So you have to go somewhere where there's 20 people in the room
But then it gets creepy
That's a different type of creep. I couldn't handle that no more. I could handle it
20 years ago
But in 2000 that was it by the time 2000 came it was me either a chick
Or me by myself
And that chick knew she was coming to the room to do one thing like there was no misunderstandings
You're not coming back to the room to watch tv
Or listen to music. You got to break up the monotony. We got to do something bad. It was terrible
It was a terrible existence, you know, but just to think that in 2009 you quick coke
And in 2017
You're the american dream dog. Yeah, man. You got a special on hbo
you know us
2000 comics what's when they got into comedy
What did they write on the top of that page?
And it was an hbo special even mitch headberg. He wanted a special when you saw
Richard Pryor in those days not really Richard Pryor
But when you saw the Rodney danger field specials and the young comedians the young comedian, man, they were all hbo
So that
sunk something
In your to every kid, you know, which makes
2009 that much more special for you like that's
people have no idea
how much changes
When and you're you're talking to two fucking guys that were junkies
I mean listen to us what we're talking about envelopes and fucking a gram
Right in front of each other hermaphrodites hermaphrodites one of the funniest things ever was that night
in
Modesto, yeah, because
While they came in guys if i'm telling you this any other way
I was so ashamed of myself
But there was nothing I could do it was done. I was older than these comics
You know, we all went out together, but and you run into a crazy friend from houston elected party
I was like they were trying to avoid I was trying to like those days and they were asking me to enjoy you got some
It was fucking crazy the devil would ever work and I go to modesto
And everybody up there is fucking high on something. Oh, yeah at the time that night everybody was high on something at that show
And there's 15 people running around backstage drinking. They had grabbing cups
They had us in a little room with booze
And a green room for all his friends and all his friends and shit
And we got paid cash
We knew what to leave right away and then uh one of the kids came up to me and i'm bugging him
Come on get me a package. Give me a package. Give me a package. I get on stage the show ends. I gotta get a package
But his friend had something he could sell me
And I go what is it? He goes it's a speed, you know like all right. I'm what you want. There you go
It's give me the fucking thing
At least I got something that was the way I was thinking in those days lee
I wasn't going to go back to the hotel room with nothing because I knew eventually
I was going to get up and start walking the fucking streets
Oh, take a cab to a bad neighborhood and make a bad mistake. Oh man. I was at that level then that I already had
Once you told me you could get it and it opened up that thing in my mind
It wasn't going to close till I snorted something
If you told me in the beginning of the night, I can't get it
Then I went home thinking I couldn't get it
But once you told me it's going to be here at 8 30 and when I get off stage it ain't there
I'm fucked because I already opened up that valve of thought
Is any part of you worried and went in like a new city with a new dealer?
Like if you if you know the guy and you trust him, that's one thing but
My brain would be like, oh, this is going to kill me. Listen, man people
Because of television and media and different things you identify this dealer
With this fucking dark character with a hat with a feather in the shadows with a leather jacket
And he shows up with a gun
These people are people who work at the theater. Oh, yeah, man
They work at the theater
But everybody's got a cousin and they know somebody like in in hollywood. They used to be a guy
There's another comedian hooked me up with
And this guy used to show up with a tackle box
A tackle box full of drugs
He had viagra. He had xanx. He had coke. He had weed
And I like part of it. I guess what would be the person but I meant more along the line like a trust line
Like what do you think they have in there or nothing?
Like if the thing is like if the thing is tainted or laced with something or no, man
You're dealing with this honor amongst thieves. I bet it's when you're gonna
But like Joe Diaz said man sometimes man, you gotta just forget about all that
You gotta go for a long walk and find it. That's when you get in trouble
But also sometimes you're a good dealer
Right
But man trust the people you're getting it from I did that in Montreal man at the Montreal comedy festival
I was like, I wanted to do a small crack. I got fucked up
It was a young comedian show man
And I and you know something you just when you're a drug addict, man, you could find cocaine in the moon
Somewhere man, that's the best
I could go to any city lee and by the second night have a package
Because I could go on stage and talk about it
And I listen to the laughter
And I listen to the percentage of the room that's laughing and I can figure it out that one of these motherfuckers that's laughing
Because only a certain person would get the joke that i'm looking out a window
I can make a cocaine joke about colombians and narcos and a guy like you will laugh
But when I talk about I worked the people last night because I did a couple lines of coke
The people laugh know exactly what i'm talking about when I said I watched I looked out a window the whole fucking night
People do coke understand because you don't know what life is
So you get up every seven seconds lee to look out your people
In front of your girlfriend your girlfriend will finally go lee
Why are you looking at the people? Nothing? I just hear something out there
You don't know what paranoia is
That's paranoia. Hell yeah, you're sitting there watching the fucking new england patreon game at 10 in the morning you put
10 or 15 bumps in here or you bump up for the night before
And next thing you know you start looking at shadows under the fucking door lee you see them
The speed makes your mind see
Somebody's feet come up to the door there and listen and they walk away
So in your mind that somebody's coming up to the door
They put the ear on the door and then they run away. They run around the block. They get refueled
They do it all over again
And you're gonna catch on one of these times paranoia and sleep has been there five days straight man doing crack on a six day
You're already seeing things bro. You haven't long coverations time. We don't even know what time it is
Time goes by fast. There's a movie the temptations
Um, they always put it on vh1 david ruffin and that scene with david ruffin
When he goes up to the he's doing coke or crack and then
And he goes up to the deal and he goes man, come on. Give me another fucking fix the guy goes you already out of fixes
He goes, how about two tickets for the temptations? He goes these temptations
He goes didn't two tickets for the temptations the guy grabs him looks and he goes
These are tickets for yesterday
Then he gives him his fucking car
That's
Damn, I miss another show you imagine that we fuck man
And you imagine getting together with a girl on a sunday night
And you don't make it the podcast on monday
Like you just don't make it you just don't get home till tuesday morning. Is my phone ringing nothing your phone is dead
You're at the holiday in down the corner
You got there sunday night with some broad you called your girl and told her you were joey
At the podcast studio that you might be there all night
She calls you at six before she goes to work you pick up the phone and go on to the balcony
Until you fell asleep in the couch
That you got really high and you don't feel good and you go back to bed. You'll be home a little while
She goes to work. You give that chick another stab and you look around the room
There's still a little coke rock left and there's still six beers left. Shit
You're gonna start doing that coke again. That chick's naked on the table
You're gonna wake her up eat her pussy and start all over again
Next thing you know, it's 11 o'clock in that corner. You're gonna stay in your room again. Mr. Lee for another day. Oh my god
Well ain't nobody gonna know
You have no idea Lee you have no idea you don't care about your job
Your employers your families what commitments you had
It really doesn't matter when you're on a fucking tap
I know man. I you should check that a long time ago. You have a plane to take off
You're there next to a day. You don't give up pounding more bills to yourself
It is something that
Oh, not anymore. I'm not gonna lie to you. I'm not anymore. It doesn't bother me as I like it did four or five years ago
It was still bothering me because I'd still get vivid memories of
That weekend in Beaumont when I went to the fucking neo-nazis and bought coke
Do you know what that's like?
That day the Slade's brother
Took me to the other side of Beaumont
And they had swatch stickers on the wall and shit
And I go, are you fucking kidding me? But let me tell you something
Felipe, you know me
It was one of the top 10 cocaine's I ever bought on the road in 30 years. That's how good that nazi coke was
It was yellow as
fuck
That nazi coke at four in the morning that shit took me to a different fucking level
It was yellow and it was real
It was flaky. It wasn't cut
200 bucks. They gave me an eight-ball 430 in the fucking morning. Who buys an eight-ball 430 in the morning?
That's like a death sensely an eight-ball at 430 in the morning
Would you guys have like I know you probably didn't go back to the nazis. Maybe you did
I don't know I only went one time
But did you have like if you were gonna go to I know you're gonna say houston
But maybe maybe in like Idaho. Did you have like this dealer's got this and I can't wait to go
Oh, yeah, you knew you were cuban, huh? Did they get carried you were cuban? I didn't care
Uh, he cared that I was in a movie at the time. All right, and that's all that matters
I was in a movie. I was in their living room
You're famous cuban. I was buying an eight-ball and I was fucked up and so were they
And they just overlooked it saying they just overlooked it
I went to an after-hour party with one of the waiters from the laptop
That black kid lights can kill a tall skinny one on the laptop. He's always there
And um, it was like man. It was like one of those after-hour
black clubs, you know
it caused like 10 five bucks to get in and um
The bartender was selling beer and she was selling drugs, you know
And beer and drugs and I went there with two comedians named Keith Manning and deal taylor two black guys
But they had a pool table, but only them and they were serving food too
Like um southern food like um both dang balls. I don't even know what that is
they're like balls was was was fucking like rice
and um ground beef inside dipped in gravy
And um, of course they got me there, you know, like I wanted to buy a coke
So the first line was perfect, you know, I was like fuck man
You know, it was the best coke ever like it like it really brought me down like
It was fucking good, man. Like so I said, fuck you give me three of them
But but after that man, I could never there were fugueses. Fuck. No, man. I could never reach that level again
You know, I was just chasing the dragon. I don't know. Well the first package
It was the first bottom of the good man. It was like
Man, I was like, yeah, man. It's gonna be a badass party
Order some bull damn balls. I had a meeting two weeks ago. Man, man. I met a dude at Marie T
Holmes road Holmes road. It's called Holmes road in Houston and the guy's very sweet
And he said hey, man, my buddy's writing a book about disco
And he comes here. Do you mind talking to him for 10 minutes?
About two weeks ago. I went down to Marie T a little earlier and I met the guy. I was gay very sweet
We talked about a few discos in the city and we were talking about he got on cocaine. He goes, do you mind if I ask you?
And I said bring it on and he goes, you know what?
And I asked him what I told him what streets I copped at and shit
But the most important thing I broke it broke down from Philippine. I didn't realize that I got my car was
That coke from the 80s
When you first did a blast of that shit and what I'm gonna go to Miami in 84, Philippine
And the cocaine in Miami at the time that they had was making your eyes red
Hmm, you weren't getting fucking speedy or nothing
You were just fucking lit and your eyes got that red vein in them
And you stayed up for a day, but you weren't speedy. You just stayed up like it was like a weird energy
But if you really tried you could fall asleep if you really tried
Later on you couldn't sleep and shit
You try to lay down and your fucking heart's pounding out of your fucking shirt
You have no idea
And you couldn't drink enough beer to content like
No, man. No the cocaine burns through alcohol. Yeah, man. That's why it's one thing balances the other
So you get to a point between the alcohol the nicotine the thc and the coke the pills and the coke everything is fucking running together
You know what I'm saying? Like they talk about the uh somebody said to me. Do you ever see hunter s. Thompson's drug menu? Listen, I lived it
You know what I'm saying? What are you talking about except for the morning stuff?
I was never a really morning drug guy me neither
Especially the last 20 years. I was too busy doing this shit
So you came behind the morning to I never was a day drinker that never happened
I don't like alcohol at night. Never mind it to win the fucking afternoon
When I'm gonna headache the rest of the fucking day
But my shit at night I went and went fucking deep and hard and listen
I'm not in this. I'm not uh glamorizing it by no means. I'm just showing you
Even Felipe that in 2009
Felipe was still alive and I remember I would wake up some mornings and I'd have a missed call from Felipe
It's 6 15 in the morning. I go wow
And I call him up. What are you doing? He by that time he already copped
And he'd be telling me I'm riding dog. I woke up. I did some push-ups
And I wouldn't put it together why Felipe would call me to call this seven the fucking morning
And I I've been that way. You just let me just call in your mind. You're like, let me just call Felipe. Maybe he's holding
You know
I remember one day there was a guy you asking about drug dealers Lee
Let me tell you how wide open it is
Again, sorry to talk about this this city one of my favorite cities in the country, Hollywood, Houston, texas had a kid
That would come to your shows league and he would give you a bud and you'd go wow
This is houston. Where did you get this from? He goes, this is where I grow
And he'd go I got six other strains. You want to buy something here like yeah
You'd go out to his car to Lee and he had one of those construction trucks
With the pack with the panels and shit and I wish I was lying to you Lee
I wish I was lying to you. He would open up the panels and he'd have little jars
Of weed. This is fucking
12 years ago. The last stop was still open
Yeah, this was at the last stop when rogan was headlining those things that you see of beat
That that fucking video that you see of red band texting me and me going off on them in 2003. That was then
That was then this guy would show up to the shows

People do it because they want to do it
So when you have a drug partner that picks you up every day at one and goes
What's the schedule for the day and you're like, well, how much gas you got?
You know what I'm saying? How much gas you got that's number one
How much gas do we have to work with because we're broke

He showed up to my show and I had money bro, and I said, you know what?
I never forget people who took care of me. So I just said bro. I know I owe 300 bucks

And it was young deli issues dog. I'm talking 20 years ago. Mexican food. Yeah
It was that one of the place that you went in a subway a gas station. Yeah almost like a subway
Yeah, you open the door and then you're in a Mexican restaurant. No, no, no, no
They still had the food truck outside. It was like an old lunch truck. Okay. No, that was I know what's on this
You know that one is on the side. It's an Indian restaurant. Yes something crazy. Yeah, but a good fucking burrito. Oh my god
Lisa yeah, all that shit and they were to read the whole back and the tortas man
It was fat and like if you order chorizo torta the fucking tort the bread was red
Yeah, you have to go to places in those days that place still there anywhere. I went it was because
I was doing comedy. I could practice my routine a
B. I was getting paid sleep. Well, not a lot of money. Sometimes I didn't stay in sleep
Sometimes I pocketed the hotel money and fucking drove back five hours like a solid. I was one of those guys
You're a savage, bro. I would do that. You just cut corners. No, I would go fucking. I'm not I'm gonna snuck coke thursday
Friday my gig is Saturday
So by Saturday, I won't want to snort
But I won't want to stay up there either
I'll do the gig and drive back
You know, I would take even though I was snorting a lot in those days
I would also know when I was taking the days off
I would plan the day off. So I would snort all the way up to that day off. You know, it was easy
It wasn't hard
And then there was another gay man with oh my god
The rick martini used to have was with a crazy white boy magician in Stockton
That guy hooked me up too, man
He was like he showed up was like all kind of chains and shit that makes you can do
Him and his girlfriend in a band
Yeah, man, I was tight
So many dudes, man, like why why didn't I start doing comedy shows?
You know, it's it's funny that we did that taping for no reason in Sacramento. We didn't know the taping
Well, at least I didn't know
It's funny for leaping that we're talking about all these gigs
And again this saturday you're on hb. I know man. It is a hp all the fuck
Who would have thought man?
What we're doing now is wednesday night, and you know, I talk about in the podcast all the time that we're making a living
You me Ralphie may man just hanging out man
Sharing eating a burrito and not even thinking about what's gonna happen in the future
They're eating a fat ass burrito
60 dollars doing kamachos
40 bucks kamachos 40 bucks Ralphie may we do go show up for 60 dollars and a burrito and a buffet
You'd always say me a green pork burrito. Yes
When I'd walk in Felipe would hand me a pork
A green pork burrito with rice and beans only you have no fucking idea
And then I would raid around do my little spot. Hopefully that willy would get off in time
And then I would do my little fucking time and getting that car and come back
Hopefully pick up another gig or I'd have a spot to count me store
Those are the gigs
They made me man. Yeah, they made who I am too and I'm you know
Because I would do it every day. It was every day. I knew that every day. I had to make a 50 dollar somewhere
Because I would add it up for 30 days, you know, I needed to make 50 dollars
My rent was 295 at the time
I found a garage. I found a good spot to live in frog town right next to a million million reverse house
A little a little one studio bro right next to a Salvadorian guy
And I lived there bro like
And man, I try every every money I got I fucking
Well, like you did for drugs, but when I was sober
When I didn't do drugs, I found another way to fuck up my life, you know, I started gambling
Like me and Gabriel Iglesias, we would go we would make a hundred dollars
and drive
To the morongo casino and try to flip it to 300 400
And we would lose bro
I remember we did a show where Dante the comedian Dante and he paid us um, well
600 700 dollars
And we pulled over to the too much casino
And we fucking lost it all
In nine hours and we were up and down bro open down open down
And I remember watching game rose $1,300 go away and he put his head down. He said
Wow
There goes my laptop I was gonna buy
And he missed the gig
He missed the gig, you know, because I know
We we fucking out we we stood there. We fucking didn't sleep
And we we missed our fucking gig man the next gig
So I always found a way to fuck up my life, you know, I don't know if you ever had a problem gambling
When I was younger, I did I died. I was like an idiot, bro. I didn't like I would go to the horses
I didn't like it
I like listening. I like you calling me and going. Hey, what are you doing this afternoon? No, let's go to San Anita
Let's stop at the 8 p.m. I take 60 bucks out
When I get there, we got a hot dog. We go for a walk. We smoke a joint
We bet till we lose the 40 or if we win week you stay
Usually I do five if we do five to six fucking races
We didn't I don't want to have we got some sun
We had a nice hot dog cooked by dirty people
Yeah, you sell some headache beer and you bet. Yeah, you fucked around for a little while. What do you give a fuck?
If you're going down there to make a living that's a complete different set of rules right there
If you're going down there to make a living like you need to pay rent
So you're gonna come to the horse track and that's how you think you're gonna make it. Good luck to you
I remember you had a joke about a punny joke about gambling
And then you you busted out you you know, you a busted out at walk yodis or you know, we did a lot of sports bars, bro
A lot of places that to turn off the fucking Laker game or whatever game that was on for comedy and didn't like that shit
And you said I don't give I don't give a fuck about no fucking NFL
I wear a hat every sunday. It's that it's like the raiders negative seven
I got a hat that says minus seven minus seven because that the
For the raider needs to look like seven mentioned that I was thinking about a gig that day
That it was in a place that you did comedy and right next to it was where you I mean guys right next to where you stood
50 yards from where you stood
Was a fucking those basketball things
Where you shoot the basket and if it goes in it goes around and you win a fucking prize

Tell the people I don't know how this special came. No, don't put the glasses on for jump set
Oh, you're a young guy. You don't need glasses the the special actually the special was diy. I did it
I did it myself
I saved up some money the last couple of years
And my wife lisa sparsa
We we worked together on it
With the production part of it. So we reproduced it ourselves. We hired um
Claude shires and he the comedian
He has an unreal media. He um, he edited my um first special for
For scott muntoya the show time special
And um, we got him into director special
And everything we did it ourselves like I was even like if you when the show ends
You'll see the credits. It's his craft service. Philippa sparsa
I was getting sandwiches and feeding the crew all day before my show
And we did it the same who the improv, you know
We did the same who the improv
and
My agent chris muth from icm. He shot that around and
HBO or like
They fell in love with the production of the show like everything was right
The background and they normally don't buy specials. They produce their own specials
They don't buy specials from unknowns, you know
I am unknown unknown
You know, they buy specials from you know the the top comedians
So I was very surprised when they said they wanted to buy it and
They didn't want to change anything of it, you know, and they wanted to be an
HBO behind it 100 percent and they got me a bunch of press
And um, it'll be on september 30
Produced by lisa asparza
Philippa sparsa
So she's not managing no more. She's the producer. She's the producer exactly the producer
You tell your mom
Yeah, I told my mom about it, you know, she's happy. She's my mom got to see the special
When I was in I had a show in new york at the
At carolines. I was there for a week
And I went there with my friend chris tori and rodrigo tori silent bob and I invited my mom and
She's right. You took him out. She flew out, bro
We went to go see the the schoony island. We're on the same train and
She got to go to every single show and she sat in the back and
Came with that new boy. She had to every show
A lot of jokes are about her and she approved it. So
She said
No, she thinks it's an exaggeration, but you know in her own way, she's proud
She's happy, bro. That's awesome
How long did it take you to work for the material? Oh, man, it takes me like
Two years for the one hour three years actually to get it right
It took me two years to actually write it, you know
To where um
Where I know what jokes I'm gonna say, but it took me like another through another year to actually like get comfortable because
When I do like my material, I like to get comfortable with my material where like
I don't want to lean on a closer like oh man. I didn't get to do my closer
So once I know that my ending is sharp and it's closing hard
I like to
Begin with those jokes, you know to challenge myself if I could really keep the consistency of laughter
So I gotta challenge myself sometimes, you know, I have a bad set
In 45 minutes, you know
The crowd didn't know that the shit he said but I know in my mind is a bad set
Oh, yeah, we discussed this on the show before yeah, so I gotta you guys a lot can
I'm dying inside bro. I know that she's not working. I feel like I'm selling I'm selling out

You know what I'm saying?
And I know when they bury him it's gonna take a piece out of me and when they bury me
It's gonna take a piece out of him because we were here 20 years ago

Make it fun. I try to write a joke man. Like, you know, like bill cosby and
Richard prior, you know, power. Rodrigo is running danger film, you know, a joke that you could just quote over and over for days, you know
You never forget man. Like

I knew I couldn't see my kids, you know, they they thought I wasn't the same fucking listen
I was like I couldn't see my kids, you know, I know I had child support hanging behind me
You know, I was like you had a big die, bro. I gotta make cash
Cash in cash. I remember a man like this guy paying me a check
I said, this is a man
What's he gonna get up in the morning because we're gonna go cash this shit that when a bank opens
He went, what do you mean? No, we're going to the bank. You're gonna walk in with me
We're gonna cast this check because I ain't gonna open no fucking account. I need to fucking cash
Remember that remember the molasses trying to give you a check in santa maria
I will shove you up to your brothers ass if I don't get a fucking cash
I was pissed. I was pissed. They weren't they're nice guys. I talk to you all the time on the phone
He's a fucking gentleman. I need a cash, bro. Like I know we all lived off a cash
And I've been working at dodger stadium at the time fucking oh, man
My blood would boil in those days if I already called julie and said lee I got a gig and eighth
Worst case scenario. I'll be out there 10 30. I'll be by your house 1115. Make sure you're there with that fucking coke
If I already told you that and I went down to Felipe's and he gave me a check
My blood would fucking boil
Because that would slow me down completely. That means I have to go to fucking hallywood and wilcox
Park the car walk all the way around get a ticket
Try to cast a check get the ticket validated
Go back. Are you fucking crazy 1130 man?
You're ready to snort that coke and I'm parking driving on hollywood boulevard on wilcox
Getting caught in fucking traffic on a saturday night
My blood would boil me too man open to 2010
If you booked me at a show
You had to be there at the hotel room and you had to put your own fucking name
And you had to put your own credit card. I had none of that shit
I had no debit card. I couldn't I couldn't put up the part that no hotel
So every time I did a show
The promoter had to check me into the hotel because I had no credit card
I had no debit me neither. So the hotel was always on the promoter's name for years
I checked with the hotel with Joe Rogan
And he would put his card down for me
Me too, man. If you go if you're fucking charged born on he'll kill you
And then you go, I don't look at the account anyway, so don't worry about it
But I wouldn't have a charge anything but that's I wasn't the same boat as you dog
I didn't have an ATM card for years and if I did it was always minus
It didn't matter then I got an ATM card and I kept it afloat
That always had like 31 20 in it
28 50, you know what I'm saying like those numbers like I always had less than 40 dollars
And more than 20, you know, I had a check cashing card
From where from I don't know if it was nicks or one of the major ones
And I used to catch my checks. No, I had one too. I got I remember struggling
I'm still on file. I'm going to yeah, I will go to the one
I will catch my check at the one right there in south central the one the last one they have before the airport
And I'll try to get my cash my check to just to have enough money to go to my next gig and um eat
All right, actually, um, I will I went one time
I had to catch my check at a one of the check cashing plays with Lisa my wife
And as soon as I catch my check, I just handed her the money right there
So she could go run and buy get a a fucking
Pay the rent man
I was paying I was giving her the check right before I was flying out to pay the rent
But luckily we don't have to worry about that right now
Listen man, you should be very proud of yourself very bang up
You know the other day I was at the dodge game with my daughter and a bunch of kids
And I thought about you and I thought about I saw the guys selling hot dogs and selling ice cream
Then I thought about you and I showed you what seats I were in they were all the way in the top
With their $15 seats
And they were enjoyable, but you really can't see the fucking field when you're an old man like me

Y eso sí, da que pensar, odio a todos los que aman, y que felices están, porque yo no puedo tener.
Un amorcito que me comprenda, y que me diga papi, y que me quiera bien.
Dios mío ayúdame, quiero olvidar.
Ayúdame, ayúdame, ayúdame, olvidala te lo pido, ayúdame, ay que yo la quiero tanto.
Y no, y no la quiero perder.
El problema con Mariana, el que se encontró mi pana, y yo que me la pasaba gozando de la noche a la mañana.
Ramón Puntilla la quería, Ramón Puntilla gritaba.
El problema con Mariana, el que se encontró mi pana.
Ayúdame, ayúdame, ayúdame, ayúdame, olvidarla.
El problema con Mariana, el que se encontró mi pana.
Y se pasaba prendiendo velitas, nodititas las mañanas.
El problema con Mariana, el que se encontró mi pana.
Huea Willy.
Que lío, que lío, que lío, que lío, que lío.
El problema con Mariana, el que se encontró mi pana.
