Starting point is 00:04:38 today oh my god that was his first as we're like he's drowning and I have bronchitis for like two weeks and the for the entire two weeks joys building you got a smoke you got a smoke every other doctor every commercial you see says don't smoke when you have a cold I took one bong hit and everything in my lung came out that's it bong hits clean out the fucking lungs it's well known fact I mean I don't know what the but when you fucking cough it's good for your lungs when you cough like that and get all that billy goat fucking milk out and gastric juices and whatever the fuck is in there I'm sorry for the choker
Starting point is 00:05:14 cough I'm no doctor but I've had the flu what 20,000 fucking times and I've smoked through all of them and even cut in your mind it cuts through the flu because you're telling your fucking mind I don't give a fuck bring it on bitch but that backfires from time to time one time in like 2008 I got a bronchitis for like eight weeks I couldn't swim I couldn't do shit so don't listen to me anyway what is bronchitis I know it's like a it's like an infection in the lungs or not it's maybe it's just liquid in the lungs I don't know but I've got it I've had it ever since I smoked hash with Joey
Starting point is 00:05:47 you know I had that thing in my lungs when I was in high school so I've always had a lung problem you know and I got out of the hospital never like you know what don't be around smoke don't smoke I got out of the hospital one in the afternoon by four I was doing bong hits and by eight I was doing to hit a fucking acid I was fucking 16 what are you gonna tell us that's funny what are you gonna tell fucking 16 year old people thought I had a lung problem just because of my voice you don't know the kid because I had the same voice I do now when I was ten it was damn that homie man he must smoke a
Starting point is 00:06:19 lot of cigarettes you never had a Michael Jackson voice no man I was my friend was made for me at this so your voice always sounded fucked up it's always done at this man like sometimes when I talk people say but you were you from man the East Coast now bro East LA you know it's funny before we started the podcast that's all we were late we were just talking about he was in bold the last weekend and he asked me if I would ever consider going back to Boulder and it's funny because Boulder when I played Denver it scares the shit out of me to have to think to go into a car and go to Boulder like it
Starting point is 00:06:54 just because God knows you know when Rogan first went to bold he called me like two days after he landed he goes you know all your stories came into perspective because this place is like a fucking candy store for a guy like you and you know what is disgusting and you can pull you can push doors down the other low life is the sounds I mean that's why I don't go back because I'm disgusted with myself for the shit I did in Boulder because if I did that shit in New York it wouldn't matter if I did that shit in Jersey or in LA it wouldn't matter they're fucking dirty communities whatever the fuck we are you know but
Starting point is 00:07:31 the shit I did in Boulder bro they didn't deserve that that's just they didn't deserve that at all you know and it's like I told you the first time I went to Boulder I didn't like it it was too many hippies for me but think about that just I'd said that to you just to let you know how much it changed like the first time I stepped foot in Boulder was a like maybe September of 83 I went down there for a weekend and I fucking hated it I fucking hate like I wasn't used to told I never know what tofu was I never knew I was right out of New York City I had no idea what half that food was and I had zero appreciation for it like zero
Starting point is 00:08:10 I was too young the first time I went to Boulder then I went back to Boulder two years later and I went on the U district I went into the to the hill yeah and that's when I was like wow I'm staying in this motherfucker it was clean there was hippies but not too many hippies you know what I called hippies they were like homeless young kids and they buying at that age I was robbing for a living I wasn't fucking asking for no fucking handouts so that's why I got so frustrated because I'm like look at these young kids act asking for handouts with a dog and a chick what are they fucking crazy
Starting point is 00:08:44 I'm out in the beginning Felipe like my first friend was a guy that believed in Satan I was a Satan guy his name is like our or something bad or that's who I bought weed from like the first go shit huh go weed probably I met him on the boulder walk like that when I first moved to Boulder I knew nobody yeah we're we're sitting at the boulder row bodorama bodorada who the rattle bodorada first time I walked into Boulder I didn't know anybody I mean not a soul I went to my house I put my clothes in I went to the bodega whatever fucking the bodega in those days was alfalfa's which is Whole Foods in in Boulder I went to
Starting point is 00:09:27 alfalfa's groceries with 60 bucks I was like what the fuck is this you know I just bought this is $20 back in New York but that was alfalfa's I didn't know what the fuck this was everything was you know organic meat and shit I'm gonna say that doesn't sound like a bodega no I didn't know what it was man and then I was buying shit with kale I fucking started walking around and I was like it was this was a perfect place for me to be at 22 I joined the gym you're 22 what made you go to Boulder I was 21 warrants okay police people I owed money to Boulder Colorado basically Hawaii and land yes the way the people are yes
Starting point is 00:10:03 and I said that that before we started the podcast boulder gets as much sunshine yearly as much as Hawaii like it's a fucking beautiful place it really is it's a and it attracts a weird people and like I said I got I was getting weed that 30 years ago that would have killed a fucking animal this shit I was getting grown up in that high altitude I was getting some good and I was getting better weed an aspen but I was telling you man it was just from 85 in Boulder to 88 to 9 now I'm lying to you for 10 years I created havoc in that fucking town they have it havoc internal havoc if it was missing I had
Starting point is 00:10:46 something to do it I'm not proud of that I'm not very proud at all but that's who I was back then fucking crazy but it's something you know like you just you just have a knack for it you know like because if you're like if you're a gangster like in New York you know Detroit you go to a small town at that like when Joe Rogan say where everybody there is super super cool they're not looking for that no you're not looking for that man you could walk in there man and you test them out you know the gas station by taking 20 power bars at once so like I can't even like imagine a world without cameras I think there's
Starting point is 00:11:27 always been cameras when I've gone to stores so like what kind of security was there nothing nothing nothing to my first one person watching the whole story I'll never forget going to the mall and I was telling Felipe that I had gotten a I got in a law settlement for my shoulder and I put money away and I made a promise to start a new life how'd you mess up your shoulder I messed it up lifting but the night before I did the scam I fell against the floor and I was with side Lawrence the fucking Jew that used to do the fake actually fuck your shoulder up for me you have to go to the hospital with something you just
Starting point is 00:12:05 can't walk in the hospital go my shoulder hurts so we went up against the wall and scraped it a little bit I banged it a lot I banged it I banged it to knock it out of the fucking joint no Gibson lead the weapon and I fucking one in there and then they had a cahoots with the attorney if the attorney fucking hooks you up with the doctors and the doctors are running it sounds like Armenian and Glendale oh my god and then they all go in on the small fucking 10% and everybody's happy my friend fuck and everybody I talked to you you're the I'm the x-ray guy you're the fucking it's like a scam it blew my mind and I
Starting point is 00:12:42 took them and I forgot about it because in the process I robbed the chiropractor so in the process so in the process of fucking it was the night that boom boom Mancini killed do come Kim in the set in the cell that was the night the same thing I remember being at the chiropractors office and watching this fight and nobody was even on the phones you know nobody the nurses that was supposed to be answering the phone they were watching the fight on the Saturday afternoon and there was a fucking envelope and I took in three days later they arrested me so I thought the case had gone sour I thought the case with my
Starting point is 00:13:16 shoulder had gone sour I got a call one day that the attorney had my check in this fucking desk and I went down there picked up the check on Friday and I was on a plane on Sunday guys that's how quick and I was on the plane I was headed to Colorado Springs but I ended up in fucking Boulder because some black dude talked me into going to bold man you don't want to go to Colorado Springs man that's an armored town you want to go to bowl that's what a boat is man with a ball with a boulder so I went to Boulder and prostitutes over there no that's not my bag so it wasn't my bag at all when you were there with any other
Starting point is 00:13:50 any other people doing the same thing you were doing you're the only one to my knowledge I hang by myself and then I met them the blessing of my life this guy like I said this guy no way before the wolf way before the wolf I met this guy named Fred Ed Ed Ed I met him through raw raw was the devil guy that sold weed and he'd have like mad at young girls hanging out with him in shit and fucking you know he one day he introduced me to Ed and Ed me and raw got weed from the same hippie lady up on the hill she was the Eugenia she was like 50 and a boyfriend was like 20 he was a rich little nerd his father invented like
Starting point is 00:14:33 glue and they were both trans fun kids and they would hate society like fuck this and fuck that but your trust funders what do you got the hate you know I'm saying all they did all day was smoke dope and sit there they didn't have a job they didn't do nothing in about five she would send them to the store to get like a bottle and they would get drunk and that's all they did but I met this dude named Ed and I hung out with Ed for a few weeks until I knew what Ed was Ed told me he was in the army so about two weeks go by and me and Ed go on the hill and there's this place called Stellas and they used to have a this was
Starting point is 00:15:09 way before Boston market guys they used to have the spit chicken rotisserie chicken rotisserie chicken and everybody went there for chicken like you had a way to align there for the chickens I would go in the afternoons and me and Ed go there one day bro we get there's a bunch of cops outside and they have a barricade and there's a dude on top of a fox theater and he's saying that he's gonna jump I'll never forget this bro and Ed's like jump motherfucker and that's a dad fell in love with him the cops kept saying bro please you're just gonna make the situation worse he was like I don't have time for this he's yelling at
Starting point is 00:15:39 the guy jump jump jump and then I became friends with Ed that was it and then I got into trouble the cops were looking for me I went to San Francisco and then I came back two years later and that's when I started my destruction but I re-hooked up with Ed and I still didn't know what Ed did Ed got checks he said he used to go to the VA that he heard noises I knew he went to Vietnam but I always thought he was a medic and I always stayed friends with Ed Ed Ed Ed and one day I was up by Chautauqua Park where you were performing by the boulderado up there yeah and I saw Ed walking and they go Ed what are you doing

I'm worried about my comedy I'm worried about doing fucking comedy. I'm worried about giving them the best show I could give them That's the differences. That's why I don't bring that shit up there So many tricks people do I know they're up there Some of them are doing their comedy and they're kind of like dancing with their beer like moving around with it I hate that shit and I'm a fucking junkie You know, I never you know, it's like I would love see I would love to go on stage and bring a joint up on stage

They got they already had their six people picked You know, they want me to go through whoops, you know how long I mean I still remember them reaching out to me for latino laugh festival and then telling me to go fuck myself
Starting point is 01:47:50 Two years in a row. They told me to go fuck myself Yeah If I saw a comic and I liked them and I walked up to him and it was my festival That means I'm in I was minding my own business when jeff valdez came up to me in seattle. Do you know that? You do know that right in seattle jeff valdez is used to have family in seattle. I thought from Denver Yeah, he's from then yeah from colorado springs, but I saw him in seattle That's where he first saw me on the comedy before you came to a lay way before I think I ended up here
Starting point is 01:48:22 He's the one that came up to me and said I got a project You're perfect for it. Plus I got a festival. I like you to be part of the festival. Maybe we'll do a cuban thing And then he I called him the next day at the hotel and he met me for lunch And he told me what his plans were and then that was it and then all of a sudden one day I had a call from some dude Pat buckles, it's the town pat. Who the fuck is town? I talked to jeff valdez. Where's jeff valdez? Oh, you have to send a tape to pat buckles. Who the fuck is pat buckles? And that's the first time and I told my the guy who was kind of like my manager time I go they're gonna give it to me. Why would this guy come up to me?
Starting point is 01:48:58 No, they turned you down Then they turned me down again the second year Then the third year they included me but in the show with bobby lee like an asian flare And I've always told that one year he didn't treat me right Which I was really pissed about was the year that he made me and maryland audition The reason why he almost got what he got you were there that night when it went down The reason why he got fucking his head banged against the wall was because he did something really bad, man He made me and maryland showcase like eight times
Starting point is 01:49:30 For that festival then he told us like that thursday, you know what to wear too Well, it wasn't even what to wear. He told us that he could we couldn't say certain things And then he told us a week before that we could not He was not gonna have the the dirty show And then the week of he had a true blue at midnight hosted by carlos mincea And it was all clean comics, but they were trying to work dirty But he wouldn't but that's why I went crazy That was the real reason because I felt that he had fucked me and maryland
Starting point is 01:50:03 I recovered from it. I wasn't that upset. I was upset for maybe two days But it really fucked maryland up and then he went back to maryland years later He could put him in some stupid tv show that he was paying the 50 bucks. Yeah, right. He was paying a what? What was it? Yeah There'll be nothing money playing nothing and you know what he was making millions for that Yeah, look at that. It was like chris. So it was like he was robbing his own people That's what really pissed me off. Like, you don't want to go rob fucking somebody white Go rob a fucking black dude, but you're robbing the same fucking people
Starting point is 01:50:37 That you know, these are your people. They have nothing Look what he grew up. He grew up in a fucking project. Then when there was an earthquake They had a sleeping fucking tents outside Are you fucking kidding me and you can't give us an extra 50 dollars? So that's why till this day, I don't like that motherfucker at all because he he fucked his own people We'll fuck somebody else I don't I mean, I don't want you to fuck somebody else, but go fuck somebody else because this isn't about a real estate deal This had nothing to do with a drug deal
Starting point is 01:51:08 This had nothing to do with none of these type of deals. You know what this had to do with me talent talents And when it comes to talent, man, I know what it feels like to be fucking rejected and to be fucking looked at and spitting your fucking face It's not a good feel It's not a good fucking feel Especially when you don't have much Especially when you don't have much going for you And yeah, that's part of the fucking game joey. You shouldn't want I understand it's part of the game But it's not what he did. It's how they did it
Starting point is 01:51:36 It's how they did it repeatedly Not repeatedly, but like I just told you it's like, you know, it's like lee if i'm jewish And me and you were friends and i'm booking something and I keep fucking you over and over again The thing that I care about because I have to when I see you I always go to him You know what i'm saying?
