Starting point is 00:36:26 quick for me leave one a couple times every time you go play in there you're fucking scared shitless because it's really owned by like some mob yeah it's how I know cuz my friend is Filipino and she applied for a job in there and she didn't take it yeah they're fucking savages oh right Filipinos and she told me she goes no no no this and they got the best Chinese menu yeah it's good they got all types of food in there yeah of the Asian but fucking the Chinese food is fucking good down there and I don't go down there you understand me that's how it's fucked up down there but he used to book that room for the
Starting point is 00:37:02 small yardstick every Thursday yeah he was getting 8,000 a week and he paid three comics $100 and he would clean up fucking hilarious shit he would run this other room the brave bull that had like three columns and rooms didn't she cause a riot in there one time yes this was a place that had like bull bullhorns on the wall and shit and they had three rooms I'm sitting here laughing but you guys know I give a lot of credit about some if it wasn't for Rudy Moreno in those days I wouldn't be here yeah because Rudy Moreno as in those days paid me every there was a six-month stress that me and him just had a mutual
Starting point is 00:37:43 agree I'm coming down Friday and I would play whatever room he had sometimes you'd have the big room down there sometimes you'd have the medium room the big room had like a dead moose in the thing I remember doing it with Pablo Francisco 1997 and then he had like a but his best room was this back room and it looked like a wedding room on the East Coast but it was a set they had a set with flowers and stuff like that around the stage and people but this was a weird Mexican crowd and Marilyn went up there one night and said something and the wife said something and the guy threw a chair and the other now this is
Starting point is 00:38:25 Rudy Moreno's baby to know Rudy is to love him Rudy is a gentleman he wears glasses he's by the book he wants you to wear a certain shirt and he would always break mine and my own balls until we basically told him to go fuck yourself watch we'll make it work yeah don't don't be dirty don't be dirty in here people don't like when you're dirty watch us and me and Marilyn proved to him that they like dirty comedy we didn't give a fuck what he told us he wasn't the comedy store car he's a great comic really but he wasn't the fucking comedy store and he wasn't gonna run our careers these are bars this isn't
Starting point is 00:39:05 fucking a church these are bars what do you go to a bar to do to have a few drinks and loosen up and look good for your friends no he's like he got to work clean and me and Marilyn would go up on stage and he'd be back there giving us the light like like knock it off and I wouldn't fucking get off I would stay up there for another 10 minutes and go fucking crazy up there fuck you motherfuckers suck my dick and I would see him back there turning red and pacing and shit but they'd be laughing yeah and then when you come off he's like Jesus Christ showing you gave me a heart attack by that that's some of the dirtiest stuff
Starting point is 00:39:39 I've ever heard I go Rudy they're fucking laughing it doesn't matter that's all that matters so he went on back and forth with us for about a year he would torment me and fucking Marilyn so one week and he takes his road gig and that's the week that Marilyn decides to go up to the brave bull on a Saturday night and have an argument with a guy I will never forget this story I was not there I just heard there was chance this fucking legendary and there's eight people on the floor wrestling and the two wives are pulling each other's hair and Malin's on stage like a narrator like Joe Rogan fucking the dolly dolly

Starting point is 00:44:35 beer yeah maybe a beer you get nothing and there's how it is for a few years but the fight I this is why I give credit to these little Mexican guys that's why I've had them on the show from Willie to Felipe all these guys that you hear today 20 years ago these guys hustled nobody fucking like these guys yeah nobody gave them spot we think Felipe was doing the improv and all this shit before last comic standing no Felipe and his buddy Willie and Jeff Garcia and Rudy Moreno and all these guys for all you guys that are sitting there in our town going I want to do comedy but I don't know what to do well let me tell you what these
Starting point is 00:45:10 guys did yeah they went to all those C little fucking gangster rooms where there's a possibility of getting shot a stab and they went in there and I'm telling you and Rick knows Rick knows I played my bones in those we made our bones in those rooms because they gave you 35 bucks and these guys with such hustlers they have three rooms in one night at one time at one time I can honestly look at all four you in the room and tell you I was pulling down and they went from five to six hundred a week in 2001 in this town I was pulling down six hundred a week doing stand-up in this town that's 24 fucking hundred a
Starting point is 00:45:47 month you know what you guys like Joey that's not no money let me tell you something when you live in your dream 24 hundred you get an apartment and recede it with three fucking guys you make a hundred fifty dollar car payment and you pay back your student loans you're good to go unless you got a drug habit unless you got a drug habit you can live on six hundred a week yeah if you live if you have 20 girlfriends yeah and if you don't do blow and if you could conserve weed you can live in the fucking Sherman Oaks with three other guys pay eight fifty a fucking month
Starting point is 00:46:17 you know two bedrooms one guy sleeps in the closet that's where you gotta that's where you gotta start off when those rooms went under not to mention but six hundred was also 10 spots guys so it averages about 60 dollars a spot I'm not gonna tell you you're working for your work you're thriving for it and yeah yeah gas is included yeah so let's get something straight it was six hundred minus a yardstick for gas ten dollars for parking you know it's that kind of stuff but you had money coming in that means your corporation was always
Starting point is 00:46:48 so Monday like okay what's tonight Tuesday Tuesday last night I would last night I would have a spot at the laugh factory for 25 bucks but before that spot or after that spot I would go up to a universal city I Monday's and the rumble room they'll do the rumble room for 40 bucks and then Tuesday I would wake up do the comedy story even though there was nobody there because it was African American night so the original room would be dead and that was 15 bucks and then somebody had a $40 room Casa Latina had a nice young black dude
Starting point is 00:47:23 and then somebody else had a later I had the sapphire on Tuesday I would pay anywhere between 1575 there you go and uh-huh so you had Wednesday night was like uh Wednesday with wild coyote wild coyote Wednesday and Saturday with wild coyote which is a small 40 bucks the burrito yeah a fucking good burrito a real good burrito kind of Thursday you had the commerce casino I still go back with Gabriel booking the bicycle club oh wow for the small 35 dollars in 1997 J Brooks all these latin comics built their own underground network
Starting point is 00:47:59 they didn't even step foot in the fucking comedy no they wouldn't even bother they wouldn't even bother because they knew they weren't gonna fucking the only club that gave them love was the laugh factory and that latin room still fucking rocks yeah it still does I remember it was it was Chris Martinez Jeff Garcia ran it for a while everybody had it at one point and it was just like it was a great room and it was a packed house and they they fucking lived for comedy the comedy story didn't give us love the improvs didn't give us love
Starting point is 00:48:27 maybe you might get something in Ontario or Brea which were great rooms but they weren't going to give you fuck it was they might give you a Wednesday they might give you a Tuesday yeah they say it was Wednesday but none and you'd have to pay for the room it was a different fucking game but you know what I don't I I thank Rudy and all those you know that's why I've had Willie on the podcast multiple times Felipe because when I got here they were putting $40 a week in my pocket that's a buck 60 because at the end of the week it all went into a comb
Starting point is 00:48:59 and it added up at the end of the month and you'd sit there at the end of the month though I'm broke but you're really not broke you are making an okay living it's not fucking you're doing comedy here every year what do you expect yeah God forbid you book a commercial oh my god yeah a book a day on a fucking tv show for scale 650 god damn it I'm going for sushi baby hell yeah I'm going for sushi baby you're gonna spend you're gonna have a good time you feel like a human being for a little bit it's great but then there's months when

Starting point is 00:50:36 you know the faith of not having a job it takes you to the next level it does what's what's the what's the movie that there's a scene in one of the anarchy movies I think what's our friend in fucking what's our little friend what's our family member down in here that's keeping things on ice for us till January down there in Austin Bobby Sharon right okay crystal his girlfriend put the clip up put a clip up from Sun's anarchy you want Sun's anarchy yeah okay Sun's anarchy

Starting point is 00:51:52 I always knew you had the talent I always knew you had the balls we worked together a lot of times but the fear you were commonly stored trained you were commonly stored trained which means you had you went through the SEAL program which means that you really can't be scared you gotta believe in yourself Jack's teller meets Mr. mayhem no no no no no no oh I know that's a bad one put on Sun's anarchy season six I think that's how season six started right he talks about
Starting point is 00:52:32 oof yeah I don't remember now we can't go through it no I can't you know but it's wrong yeah there's a scene where he goes to see him and he goes using pain to get to the next level that's what makes kings out of men he goes that's how you do it and that's the same thing with what we're doing away in a way you have to put yourself against a wall to really grab the whatever I mean you were close I would give you your beatings about it on the constant oh yeah yeah because and then you never saw it in that way you saw it like I'm gonna miss
Starting point is 00:53:13 something and I get it listen man going through life without insurance and a bunch of things is a fucking American reality today that's a scary reality and uh I gotta look in the eye and I gotta look Lee in the eye and my little pal over in the eye and tell you that yeah I'm grateful I did some movies and I'm grateful that I do stand up but I'm grateful I got sag insurance bitches yeah okay I was not cut out to have insurance I'm like I'm never gonna have insurance

Starting point is 00:54:13 when I got into it I thought to myself well you can go to one of two ways you can either go on the road and bust your ass on those shit gigs and get funny shit games but by the time I got here in 2000 and I would have been I would have been able to do the road a lot of that shit had dried up so what would end up happening is that now you're paying for the flight they don't always want to put you up it's kind of crazy and they're not giving you shit especially as a feature in today's feature world it's very tough like a lot of times
Starting point is 00:54:45 if it's a local thing if I could fight for a feature I don't bring a feature like I don't bring it if I go on the road 20 weeks I bring a feature maybe six or seven yeah because like there's a lot of clubs that I lose a thousand bucks yeah bring on a feature if I was single and whatever but I got a four-year-old I can't just lose a thousand bucks because it's a hotel a week oh yeah there's no more hotel for one a one-time sound you know what they want to give this kid right you don't need you want me really
Starting point is 00:55:17 embarrass you and tell you what they want to give them and look them in the eye and I can't let that happen right like you came with me brother you know I'm saying so I mean it's I want you to be taken care of I want you to eat good yeah you know when I go to breakfast you go to breakfast when I go to lunch you come with me when I go to dinner we eat together you know you know how it is when we go to movies with fucking family we're a corporation so but you sit there at the end of the week oh Jesus fucking Christ they bang me out you know

Starting point is 00:56:16 gonna raise the prices again because gas price is something with oil again they're gonna raise the prices see that's the thing and I and I said to myself you know what I don't know how funny I am because you know that and when you're a comic you think you're funny you're funny enough to get your ass out on that stage and the laughs are there but you're never quite sure because you see how you see they're laughing at somebody else that you're like that fucker ain't funny but then there's this thing about it where I'm like
Starting point is 00:56:45 if I go out of town because then I just got signed to my agency how's it gonna look if if if I can't go on an audition because I'm I'm playing some shit gig in fucking Seattle or or Texas or or something like that they need me here they don't they don't have me here they're gonna drop my ass you know and I booked just enough to keep my agency interested in me so are you booking right now I'm not booking but they're sending me out little bit by little bit I need if I if I were to start booking something they would send me out more but it's like
Starting point is 00:57:16 it's so crazy because the percentages have even gone down even low well you know I was telling you about trying to get extra work extra work pays anywhere between 114 to 172 a day depending on whether it's new media or it's a show that's on a network if you go overtime like I was telling somebody I either want to do five hours and get paid the eight or I want to do 14 fucking hours because a 14 hour day is going to get you over 300 dollars you know and you never know when you're going to get right book again yeah
Starting point is 00:57:51 and when you could have joined the army yeah you remember yeah I remember those days when you're 18 you could join the army and be walking around when you're fucking 38 now in hindsight how old are you now for 43 how fast was it to you became 38 after high school Joey I went to sleep I was 25 I woke up on 43 I have no idea what happened guys so if you're young right now and you're listening to this let me tell you something if you're fucking confused and you really don't know it is from your uncle Joey I don't want you out there working at fucking some fast food join it to you figure it out try it yeah try the

Starting point is 01:14:51 film I knew the date of the release with a director from where did he eat lunch yeah what the movie was about I was there front and center yeah 115 the movie came out I was there one fucking o'clock and attention stone and with a full stomach full of fucking Chinese food I can name 10 movies right off the top of my head that I was there opening day with no line no drama I was getting in first I was getting on that fucking movie theater first with a full I still remember dog being in the fucking halfway house having two dirty UA's the third one you're going to prison but I didn't give a fuck because a movie was coming out that Friday called good fellas and I remember still but I read the book when I was locked up in prison and I heard that movie
Starting point is 01:15:37 was coming out that was like sleepers like I was right there when sleepers came out because I read the book in Seattle Josh Wolf gave me the book I love all those situations silence of the land and you go see the movie but what movie we talking about good fellas 1990s scorsese just I'm nothing I'm nothing I'm in the halfway house they're gonna throw me in prison I'm like what am I gonna do Joey I've been taking a chance on my life well what the fuck am I doing out here I'm like a gentleman about 1130 I went to the fucking little Chinese place I used to go to by the lunch special I never ate the egg roll the egg roll was for shit but that made a good nice szechuan beef with steamed rice nice little egg drop soup some noodles in the soup I left there
Starting point is 01:16:22 I did in those days I was in the halfway house but I always had a gym when I was married I had this hidden little gym maybe the size of this I paid 35 bucks for it it was on the other side of fucking Pearl Street and in the middle hung a punching bag and I had weights of stereo and then I had different compartments all over the place like tools but it wasn't tools I would hide weed in there and sometimes an eight ball of coke or and I would put under the punching bag I had hiding places in there so I would roll a joint a skinny skinny joint and I knew they were going to drug test me yeah they were always going to drug test me I would take a hit off that joint I would go to that gym and just go and I would blow it out wash my hands and then from then on I
Starting point is 01:17:10 would just drink water water water but before I leave I'd hit that bag for an hour my fucking sweats would be drenched just a little before my knees that's it that THC was gone I would key and I never got busted for THC they always got me for coke but I always just took one hit and I still remember eating that Chinese food running over there taking that one hit and going to see I was nose from rags to riches I didn't give a fuck if I went to jail for that I was not going to see good fellas sober that's how stupid I was just to let you know no you know what there's a magic to that though you know I remember when I saw it I was high school I was about it was I was probably a sophomore or a junior and we all went to see it and we're laughing our asses off and the
Starting point is 01:18:03 fucking straights are sitting there like what the fuck is these kids are assholes this is not funny and we're just screaming the whole time at how funny this fucking movie is and that's when I learned it was just like these fucking movies are magic man they made things make sense I watch movies now and I'm just like no matter how shitty my day is if I go home I put midnight run on it's over for me what's the best what's the best movie you've watched the last year the last year that's come out the last year no no no there hasn't been much of anything you know really I mean the Harry Dean Stanton film was kind of sweet to see him go out uh Logan was really well done at for like a for like a because it's not like a comic book movie it's more like a this weird kind of
Starting point is 01:18:50 noir like you could see Robert Mitchum playing this guy at a certain point you know um fuck what the hell the Jackie Chan movie was good because it was like Chan is the foreigner a lot of a lot of martial arts yeah he at 63 years old I'm amazed that the guy can still fight I mean he's on another level man that dude's a real deal always has been takes care of himself unbelievable yeah no no no Mike Black it was Mike Black's birthday and I said Mike Black Jackie Chan is going to be at the American Cinematic the Egyptian they're going to show three movies he was like I can make it through maybe two I was like I don't give a fuck just get your ass over there all right so I got his tickets we went Jackie Chan was there he spoke the RZA was interviewing him but I'm watching police story
Starting point is 01:19:36 police story three in this movie he did call miracles it's amazing to watch a man move the way he did because a human being shouldn't be able to do this shit I mean he's hang the in that's all his own he did oh yeah he does all of his own stunts he might not do him as much now but we're talking about movies that went back to the mid 80s and there's a fight scene the final fight scene in this in this movie miracles is it's like a remake of a fair of a frank capper movie he's he's he's fighting in a rope factory on these huge stilt like like like platforms and they got these rollers filled with rope that are being pushed and you know there there are moments there where he can fall 20 30 feet and he's holding on the rope and he's pulling himself up
Starting point is 01:20:24 just by body straight it's just fucking amazing what he could do and I watched this thing and I'm thinking to myself you know all respect to Bruce Lee and everything but Bruce Lee just kicked people's asses he didn't do what Chan did Chan did these things that were like superhuman he was on a whole other level so it was like fighting and it was like the stunts and I mean I've seen him do shit that most other actors would have died making these films phenomenal it's almost like parkour before parkour yeah yeah and they were actually talking about that the RZA was talking about how he inspired a lot of that a lot of that french shit and that that brazilian parkour and that that moved over to they made a couple of movies in france called D 13 which really cool
Starting point is 01:21:13 shit but it's all based on Jackie Chan running jumping over things if he could walk through a gate he never walked right through the gate he would he would kind of crisscross his way up a set of walls over the gate and then just go over there and kick the shit out of somebody it was on a was a whole other level but there was a there was a respect for the image you know there was a respect for for being able to to um to create this thing that as you're watching it you imagine yourself as Jackie Chan you know you imagine yourself doing these fight scenes you imagine yourself in that world and even even at 63 the foreigner delivered delivered man and he's delivering on a dramatic role that you didn't think he was capable of not for a guy like you yeah when you
Starting point is 01:22:03 see a good film how happy are you still I'm thrilled like I still remember going off you felt we went to see the godfather no we went to see the other one the one with Clint Eastwood and the chinese kids and we took it with Sam Wong yeah and they're saying all these poor asian slangs and we're sitting there with that I don't even know what to do with a laugh and he started laughing yeah I'm like okay I'll fucking laugh then we had a great time but uh you know we went to see like two or three movies in a row because I had clearance then there was no children the phone wasn't ringing you know what I'm saying the phone don't ring you might as well go to when you were living over there by the Y in northern hollywood we were hanging out all the time you blew my mind
Starting point is 01:22:47 by the passion that you had like some people talk to talk you're a guy that really walks to walk the shame with you is we haven't figured out what agent could get a guy like you to do what you do best which is argue film you know you know about cinematographers yeah you know that when he shot the movie his wife stabbed him a week before because he cheated on them with a Puerto Rican chick down there in the hurricane yeah I'm the other type of guy that knows all that information and he's passionate well it's a passion it's fascinating to me and you love terrible movies and you love sensation movies and just like everybody else we all there's a bunch of movies that I watch and I go I love this movie to some people it's fucking terrible but maybe I have to tell you know movie I like
Starting point is 01:23:33 boomerang boomerang is great Eddie Murphy Martin fucking Lawrence the father bang bang bang yeah fucking you know all those movies I I don't know there was a part in me when like there was two movies I know by that time I'm lying to you by that time I had seen there was two movies I had no interest in watching do the right thing when I watched it I still watch it when it's on now yeah and another Spike Lee or what no it was another Spike Lee one it was Harlem Nights okay another movie Lee you still haven't watched Harlem Nights no I haven't Harlem Nights has moments Harlem Nights has some great moments in it just Harlem Nights is so fucking good Lee if you don't watch it just Friday night when you stay in with your wife don't show up here on Sunday that's it
Starting point is 01:24:22 if you don't watch Harlem Nights at your mom you're gonna dial you know what they're doing a remake not a remake they're doing part two to come into America really yeah okay I've heard this I've heard this yeah they want to do America was on somewhere about a month ago and I was like you know enough with this bullshit I'm no writer I'm no Hemingway I'm sitting over here trying to write a clever joke yeah like I might as well write a joke about jock it's fucking coming to America so I watched the whole thing it's hilarious it's brilliant when you watch some of these movies and you're like this is 30 fucking years old how is this still fucking relevant there are times when I go see a movie and I'm just like fuck they don't
Starting point is 01:25:01 there's no you know the biggest problem that I have right now is that there's nothing in theaters that really connects I'll go see a movie and I'll be like all right that was a good waste of a couple hours my wife wants to see talk to it which one so I'm with all every you know what it's fun for a kitty kind of thing but it's not it you know I had I had a good time with it I love the Hulk Jeff Goldblum was great in it but overall I'm just tired of these fucking Marvel movies they don't really don't deliver anymore they're just you know you can only be a kid for so long they remind me of that agent that Hajin just sent your Latino auditions even though you're Jewish but you got a Sunday the last time you went to fucking Jamaica and they you're like listen I'm
Starting point is 01:25:41 fucking Jewish bro what's with the Spanish was all these guys want to see you they want to yeah it's the same thing with the Marvel thing and like listen it's it's a I have a stand against them yeah like I don't think adults should be going to see that shit it just but that's me because I'm an asshole like listen bro and the more people pay for these things the more money they make well that's the thing they get lazy they put them together in three days no they're just they're just making shit because they know people are going to go see it when you see a great film like I mean I can't remember that's the problem I can't remember when I saw a great film in a theater I can't remember when I saw a movie that really blew me away and I was just like god damn that was
Starting point is 01:26:21 good I can't wait to fly yeah on Thursdays because especially from going like Delta or like jet blue or something because I might see a fucking movie that might blow me away like I still remember being on the longest yard and having no coke and being in New Mexico and being fucking bored but I got a big bag of weed and maybe I get some room service I don't know where to go yeah my girlfriend's up here I got no girlfriend down there you know he's watching TV and then we're going oh pay-per-view movies why not I still remember this yeah special okay I still remember scrolling and seeing in a picture of Denzel with a gun in his hand with an explosion behind him and going this guy was good as the fucking saxophone player oh yeah and he was great in this movie and he was

Starting point is 01:54:12 and this and this to seem interesting as can get this is the Oakland Coliseum it's 1977 they didn't sell it out by themselves I don't think if somebody wants to look it up I think that they were part of a tour like them and not the hopeful or something like it was one of those Saturday afternoon things yeah it looks like a festival like a festival type thing it's Oakland it's not Texas it's not the South or anything like this put this a little louder Lee look at these guys and look at how they're acting okay there's no dancing there's no matching outfits do you think these guys really care what they look like when they went up on stage look at them look at this guy a singer with a hat on

Starting point is 02:10:56 they will go out of their way you know and part of me is like well these women should have said something and the fact that they took the money meant that you know it it continued the victimization but you know what you're a woman in hollywood sometimes you you're sitting there telling yourself they're not going to do anything anyway i might as well get a little something out of it rose mcgowan got like a million dollars out of it you know but i'm glad they're bringing the i'm glad they're bringing them down now fuck him but in no way is this a unique thing no kevin spacey's not unique this shit has been going on for years well it's funny because i went to eat tuesday night i did a gregg fridt summons radio show and after what i met my agent and he went to this restaurant

Starting point is 02:15:44 he pulls the covers up on himself he's like call me and it's just like you didn't expect murphy to do that you didn't expect murphy to murphy murphy was all i always thought that murphy was a hell of a better actor than he was ever given credit for yeah me too yeah i always thought bang it up when you watch him a nutty professor he knows what it is to be a fat guy but i like them in fucking still 48 hours 48 hours and trading places i stir them in that camera coming up on them the thing about boomerang was why i like boomerang is when this movie came out i was in the dumps yeah oh my personal life was fucking shredded i had this little white girl i was in love with she moved to new york city and shit i was in boulder all alone i was doing stand-up twice a week
Starting point is 02:16:35 i was eating valium's i was snorting blow yeah i was just lonely and i used to go to video store and rent movies every day like an asshole and watch one movie and one stand-up show and write notes from the stand-up special about what i like about that style you were studying it yeah and i watched boomerang and i went off the charts that scene with chris rock just a bunch of slow bang bang bang they just have 15 great scenes in that movie that i think it's a gem that not a lot of people watch i like those movies when i get surprised yeah when i'm fucking in shock like how good the movie is yeah there's a lot of movies that you watch that the first time would take you in that direction like fuck i'm on to something here but then you're like fuck they gave me such a
Starting point is 02:17:24 disappointment yeah like the last three johnny debt movies like the the fucking one about dog shadows it started off great it was a great first hour the one with the nero the family i watched the first hour that i'm ready to go i loved it i loved the movie it's the fucking girl in that the young girl oh the daughter's great the daughter is fucking the son makes me laugh the son is great there's so many movies that you see that you're like jesus there's a little hope now i was i was hoping so much more from black mass speaking of johnny dip oh yeah but i thought that i was a bulger you know i was hoping for a lot more from that you know what man i thought the movie was well done i thought he was acting was great i think the sale of the gangster anymore
Starting point is 02:18:09 that whole appearance since the sopranos it just got wiped in the game you know it changed the game so that's why whitey bulger we all know about him like they're releasing goddy this summer right yeah travolta travolta what are you gonna do i travolta's done i mean it's not always comes back but he always comes back he was great on that oj thing but i don't think you know anything about anything about john goddy okay enough to make you pay 12 dollars on a friday and go get two tickets and go watch it no you know people are too people too the time look the the the era of one that is being set is too close to good fellas and good fellas the greatest ever made what's the movie you like with jim carrey what's the best movie jim
Starting point is 02:19:04 carrey ever did yeah oh the fucking brother when they go on the mission to ask him to go get the girl that's my oh dumb and dumber yeah dumb and dumber dumb and dumber he could have done three sequels dumb and dumber was such a great movie you would have paid 20 for the fucking sequel but he told you to go fuck themselves then they released it 20 years later what happened it went it ate shit three people went to see it because guess what nobody remembers nobody gets the fuck anymore we wanted it a year after you released that we would have gone twice and to see it yeah that's how much we wanted that second one you know it's timing everything is really timing with what's going on and the problem with that is always you know a comic wants to prove that he's got dramatic chops
Starting point is 02:19:47 he doesn't want to be dismissed as just a funny guy because it's not respected when comics should really embrace how hard it is to make somebody laugh nobody you know what a lot of people can do those dramatic roles i don't know of an actor working today who could do easy money there's not a fucking actor who could go in and make you believe that he's rodney drinking drugging gambling and and taking baby pictures in the morning who could do that the guy that the one guy there's one guy that could do it if anybody could do it there's only one guy that could who was that this mission the guy that played the brother in the boxing movie with marky warberg bail christian bail christian bail could play that guy and make it funny they could do anything
