That's it. Yeah, man Yeah, you're a comic to the end like Tupac said, right? That's right. Well, I got a long history of Paris the First big love of my adult life was with a Parisian woman I lived with in San Francisco for seven years and the first time I went to Paris. I was actually maced pepper spray these guys tried to mug me and
Starting point is 00:10:12 I got away and all this Stepped in dog shit there. I've done a lot of things in Paris put flowers on Morrison's grave. So you like it? Yeah, I love it. I like sauntering down the Boulevard with a baguette under my arm I'm in pepper sprayed in a long fucking shit hurts man. Oh my god. Shit. I never got pepper sprayed like by a woman Or I was assaulting somebody The guy that had the big dick in Jersey that there was a guy when I grew up that he said he was a the guy from Godfather 2's Grants up so the Godfather 2 there's a scene where Michael takes Fredo To his underground bar to see like a semi rape
Starting point is 00:10:54 Where they tie a girl up and the guy comes out with a big dick and a cape and the guy's dick is like four foot long But they never show the dick the director is a very good director That's when Michael finds out that Fredo betrays him All the guineas are saying look at him. He looks like Superman, but they never show you the guy's dick You never even think about it, but I'm my time my luck Right like you never even think about it. You'll see Godfather 2. It's like a scene from Godfather 2. Okay Godfather 2 of When Michael Bita finds out but the Mike of Fredo betrays him
Starting point is 00:11:31 Okay, and there's a little Cuban doing the back playing little Congress and shit to make a long story short This could only happen to me in that Cuban community in Union City It was a club called Luther in the ultra club 38 and the guy that owned it His claim the fame was his grandfather had the biggest dick in Cuba But now he had the biggest thing like it was a generational thing that went down. I mean, this is this is just ridiculous It's just ridiculous It's ridiculous, so we can't leave my father the time I saw This is it. No, I know it was you Fredo. No, no, no, no the Godfather
Starting point is 00:12:12 Godfather 2 I want capital letters Lee. You went to college. I don't do anything. Yes, they do. Yes, they do capital letters for Christ's sakes Jesus Christ, he's like a two-year-old these fucking kids. They text they forget everything All right, hold on scratch for Godfather to include so what is the big dick in New Jersey? I have to do with getting me because the big thing in the big dick in New Jersey I went Michael finds out Fredo, but Michael and Fredo in the Cuban Jesus Christ All right, the thing that has to do with it was Right there that's okay
Starting point is 00:12:58 There you are three minutes in old videos on a no, no, watch this scene. It's a brilliant scene It's when I talk about directing Can you imagine people would leave New York to do this on the weekend to go watch this on the weekends? This is brilliant See all this Vegas shit started in the van and you fucking 50 they were doing this. I'd speed it up How far just keep going to we see What's with the questions Keep going keep going keep what's with the question. He's on keep going keep going keep going right there
Starting point is 00:13:48 Listen to the bongos in the back tremendous when you Everybody stands, but it's worth it watch. You're not gonna believe this All right, so they take this pull a little immigrant girl They tire up right and this guy with the big dick comes out gives it to her and people pay this to watch this shit That's the guy with the big dick. He's got a cape on now Michael's just hanging out right watch this ah He shows her the dick she fucking loses her mind look at it. No That was his grandfather
Starting point is 00:14:48 The director never shows you the dick Here you go Right there he ratted himself out look at Michael he gets fucking on you He knows he betrayed Is the brilliant scene but if they were to show you the guy's dick you wouldn't have seen Michael's face right right right That's a brilliant directorial scene so everybody in the room how they show you the guy now they would do that in 1975 this kid was doing that in Union City and
Starting point is 00:15:43 He would come to my mom's bar and always like we'd be shooting pool and in the conversation like even with my friends I didn't know nothing about nothing. He'd just say you know my grandfather had the biggest dick in Cuba And my friends would look at me like why is he telling us this and then he's like he's like shooting He's like shooting pool wish now we're shooting pool And then he would tell us that he had that it was a thing in his family and I told my mom was my mom was like Don't worry. He's not a bad guy. His name was Willie Vandy So Willie Vandy had a bar once I found out he had a big dick And this is what he did that that bar on Saturday nights during the week
Starting point is 00:16:20 They played salsa, but on Saturdays. He would showcase his dick. It was like a comedy show You know what he would showcase it every week like every Saturday night I believe the neighborhood knew if you wanted to see his dick you went down there He finds him like Dog he get like some Nick Erdogan runaway cuz like in the 70s nobody gave a fuck about Nick Erdogan Right like take a think of a country nobody gave a fuck about in the 70s He would get one of their refugees they dope them up and it was legal like they paid the cops off Wow, every side doesn't mean it's legal. Well, you know, whatever they were having fun
Starting point is 00:16:56 He'd come out and he gave go they paid him and he'd give him a stab in in public with that With his three-foot dick. Oh and fucking people would pay 20 bucks and hang out and have drinks with the guy What the fuck does this shit? That's like Willie Allen's friends. You know I'm saying like you hang out after that But couldn't the guy just learned how to juggle It was fucking with a dick. I think I mean like I never liked the dude But the first time my dad, but there was a car valve down the corner. Do you know what a car? Well, yeah ice cream. I scream joint that was one of my favorite things you feeling on ice cream and I go Yeah, so when we went to get ice cream it was down the block from that bar goes
Starting point is 00:17:33 Let me stop in there cuz Willie has to give me money But then another time I went in there with him I guess my stepfather was like a half a loan shark and he loaned Willie money and Willie always kept fuck with him So one night Willie was supposed to meet him there and Willie didn't meet him so my stepfather on The Saturday night I'd fucking 11 o'clock and we went in there and he goes to sit right there And he took a thing out of his jacket and it was uh, you know those homemade zip guns
Starting point is 00:18:07 Only with what's a zip gun a zip gun is what you make it and Homemade gun with a 22 and it's got one bullet it and I got to get you with it I know like a nail then a shoot like a nail. It's like a fucking pen No, no, no in the 70s and 80s. I had friends do I know a place in the Bronx where you can buy them They were like a disposable one bullet Lee. How long have you been doing this podcast with Joey? You've never learned you ever learned what a zip gun is yet. So he's he's been too busy telling me He had a zip gun only with that air in it that that that tube that onion smell that would break out in people's He put me in the corner and he went to the back of this place and left it like bammed it off
Starting point is 00:18:49 I'm not forget like a stink bomb like I still like it was a stink bomb, but uh, whatever that is mace Oh my god, pepper spray he discharged it in the back of the club and then we walked out together like nothing happened But that's the last time I got it in my eyes. I must have been 10 or 11 or maybe tops 12, but I don't think so Oh, I was a kid and that was his way. Oh Fucking with the guy. You're not gonna have my money. We're gonna make no money on a Saturday night either I think I had his money the next week. Yeah, but nobody got hurt. It sounds like it was a full shirt Lone shark, that doesn't sound like half of where I told you that he was fucking when it came to all that shit He was a genius when he came to all that type of dirty. I got maced over there
Starting point is 00:19:27 So there's the first time I ever went to Paris and I think it's kind of cool that I was maced in the city of love But I was living with this this French woman in San Francisco We go to Paris to visit her mom She got sick and I got to go out by myself one night So I'm walking around the the best deal area is like the Greenwich Village of Paris So I'm walking around the name of the area best deal best deal like when they had the French Revolution It was the Bastille prison that they tore down and broke open and let all the prisoners out That was the big symbol of the revolution. So
Starting point is 00:20:02 I'm walking around the Bastille area. There's a street called the Rue de Lap And that's a street with all these bars on it and I'm walking down I can go to any of these bars and have a drink. I come across this bar called some girls That's the name of a Rolling Stones album. I love the Rolling Stones. I go in they only play the Rolling Stones I'm in heaven. I'm drinking beer brewed by monks. I'm having a I'm enjoying my my own company I'm making notes, you know, I'm just really having I'm in Paris and Every time I wanted to leave they play another great song like can you hear me knocking? Give me shelter and I'd order another beer finally. I leave this bar
Starting point is 00:20:43 It's late There's no one on the street now It's this thin Parisian street and these two guys are walking towards me in the distance And this guy had a metal walking He had a metal pole and he's walking like it's a walking brace, but it wasn't a walking brace It was a metal pole and then they got close they get closer I move over to make room for them Then they move it over a little more and then I moved over a little more and then before I knew it
Starting point is 00:21:06 They were right up on top of me and dude with the pole Jams me in the stomach with it and it's go time, baby It's two against one and I'm not proud of it. I don't know where it came from. I barked at them No defense whatsoever and then the guy with the pole starts wailing on me man But it was winter and I had a big coat on and it actually didn't hurt too bad And you were drunk Yeah, that helped for it not hurting too bad and then I looked to see what dude number two was doing I looked at dude number two and he maced me right in the eyes
Starting point is 00:21:43 I've never felt such excruciating pain in my life You have no idea how many nerve endings in your eyes and I I broke free and I'm just you know I wailed my arms and broke free and I'm running and I'm blinded in all this pain and I got away from them I'm sure they you know looked at each other and thought did that guy fucking bark at us But why are they attacking you? What do they want? Well, they don't have guns. Okay, they don't have guns There so I heard later that that's a very common way for people to get mugged in Paris or where you they may see you they beat you up. They get you down. They take your money. Take whatever so It took me it was probably staying
Starting point is 00:22:23 About a mile and a half from where I was maced it took me I think two or three hours To get home where I was staying because I would I would walk a few steps And then it would it would hit me and the pain was so crippling I had to sit in like a doorway and just you know And just sit there in pain and whimper and then thank God it started to rain And then I could I'd like hold my eyes open and then feel the rain in my eyes And and then finally eventually I got back and I used to have really long hair back then you remember me and My French girlfriend not to do
Starting point is 00:23:04 She tried to help me. Oh, baby. What's your eyes, baby? And like I guess I had little particles of it in my hair and like a little some particles got in her eyes And then she's fucking on the ground rolling around in pain and shit man It went on until like sunrise this shit lasted forever Gonna Paris fuck that. No fuck Paris has had a lot of problems lately, right? Yeah, the Bataclan and Well, that's it, but I'm from Orlando. Look, we had the Pulse nightclub shooting. So Yeah, you're nobody's fucking rabbit foot either and someone a bill a little kid got
Starting point is 00:23:41 Whatever what the fuck do you want to do you are from Orlando originally? That's right. Well, yeah, I mean I'm I was born in DC and then my family moved to Orlando when I was 12 Well, that wouldn't stay out of Paris Lee Well, do you rather be in Paris or you if you went to the patisserie's there and had some hey I they have they have bakeries here. They're pretty good. I mean our cheap imitations of what's happening in I would love to I would love to see parts of Europe, but if they're gonna maize people I mean, I've been back. I've been back twice. I've been back 35 times. It's never happened again. Okay, you know, you'll never be Mace Lee I love croissants. I'm gonna stay whether you're gonna go to a country cuz you're like fucking croissants. What else? Yeah
Starting point is 00:24:28 That's what he said. That's right that you said patisserie's whether that's what I'll give you I'll give you a chew I'll give you a good travel tip for Paris here if you ever go to Paris Some of the the subway there is called the metro. Okay, and some of the metro cars have a flip latch Because you have to like flip this this the latch to to open the door I learned that the hard way the first time I was there like I got to my stop and the door didn't open and like a fucking moron I was like Then like some perigee I just walked over with his finger just went flip the fucking thing opened so Avoid the jackass moment that I experienced
Starting point is 00:25:10 If you're in Paris and the doors don't open remember there's a little flip It's one finger. No, you go you stay the hotel. Yeah now. Yeah, you're the same hotel. No, no, no I stayed different parts of town. Oh, it's interesting. I stayed there in December. I was there in December I did this small club and this female Comedian who lives there was out of town and let me stay at her place and she lives in the st. Germain neighborhood of Paris which is the the Beverly Hills of Paris and I couldn't figure out her heat and it was fucking freezing
Starting point is 00:25:49 So I was sleeping like with my clothes layered and my winter coat on So it was funny to stay in like the richest part of town and then like I'm it was like sleeping fucking outside in this place I'd say like really hot showers and it's like for an hour and everywhere you go. There's Americans, right? Yeah, some there's a handful there. I already said he went to did all those shows in China. He goes tons of Americans Yeah, yeah, there's expats all over China, right? Yeah I'm like, I'm very jealous of all that traveling. So you're 29 You got the world by the balls and you want to sit here and fuck around and go to Long Beach Jose
Starting point is 00:26:28 Nobody would you like to go Japan's Japan's my number one in Asia. I'll be back in Tokyo the end of June Come on early. There's your dirty excuse at the end. It's a great little club. Where else would you go? Uh, I'll show you get Lee five minutes. Yeah, I'll get you five minutes. You come there. All right So you could do five minutes and fucking Hong Kong. Yeah, that'd be crazy Stand up Tokyo, so here we come Tokyo. Well, Australia would be really cool. I think I was in Australia in September at the comedy store see like that's that's a guy I haven't done anything in Europe, but uh, and then I also like honestly like something that Joey's talked about I haven't really been anywhere in America. I've been a few places, but like that's part of the traveling
Starting point is 00:27:12 I'd like to see like I haven't been into any like that national monuments on the east coast Israel did you make any stops anywhere? I went to Jordan for a day a couple days. It was fun Jordan it wasn't that I went to the where they filmed Indiana Jones. I Like Jordan because they like Michael Jordan so much. They named their country after him. So you do comedy in Israel at all I have not I'm supposed to go there in December and do Who books to re? Yeah, somebody books the room, right? Mm-hmm. You have to be clean. You have to be really clean real clean Yeah, right. That's that's that means I'll never get there. Yeah. Yeah
Starting point is 00:27:51 No, there has to be somewhere in Israel that would put you up because it's I Heard the Tel Aviv you can You know you can you could be more risque, but in Jerusalem. They oh, yeah, I know gotta be right clean Really? Yeah, they take Jerusalem seriously, especially like the old part It's like them for like every religion that's like the most sacred part of the world So they take it pretty seriously that is that's it. That's as good as it gets right Yeah, for everybody like there's the Armenian side the Christian side. There's the Muslim side and the Jewish side
Starting point is 00:28:26 Yeah, so you have to be clean there. That's a fucking church time. It's pretty cool You can see like monks walking around. Yeah, my friend's wife ex-wife is there now. She's been posting pictures on Facebook And it's pretty interesting What do you see when you go there? It's gotta be Whatever religion you are or thinking of becoming it's gotta Wake it up a little bit. It has to wake up your Religious experience a little bit going over that even like I was I I know was never really a big religious person Not like I'm wondering whether I'm agnostic or wherever I am
Starting point is 00:28:59 But yeah, I've been over there twice and it's pretty It's just it it makes you because all the stories you heard growing up. It's just it makes you think It's like you try to be respectful that it has a lot of me even if you don't necessarily Believe in God if you just have to to see all those people coming together to do what like it's pretty impressive You I have any religious anything in your body. I I used to be more religious. My family are a hardcore Christians and I Think there's a superiority that comes with Real staunch believers in anything where they think they're absolutely better than anyone like I live in a
Starting point is 00:29:42 Right in the neighborhood. I live in is like Orthodox Jewish like not the nicest people Beverly fuck. They don't say hi. I walked in the neighborhood and they don't say hello to you so It's interesting. I I Wanted I pitched a you know my comedy travel show idea and you know, they do stand up in Israel And then also they do stand up in Palestine. There's a Ramallah comedy festival every year I'm not doing fireman there Joey. I Thought it would be interesting to show how people on either side use humor to deal with their circumstances and
Starting point is 00:30:18 you know the the the troubles that they're dealing with and The Comedy Central when I pitched it to them I mean I it was a whole travel show about comedy and humor around the world and and they said that they they didn't think that the idea was provocative and subversive enough What the fuck is more provocative and subversive than stand-up comedy in Israel and Palestine? You know, like what are they making jokes about so? But you know, if I if I was if I was 30 years younger, right? I always thought that'd be a great idea to have a travel show
Starting point is 00:30:55 where a comedian would do stand up in a different country every week and Talk about his experience on stage what he thought was different, you know, it's like in the old days when you went to Austin you could talk about George Bush on stage when you went to Houston mentioned Bush and that was the end He is set you follow me. Mm-hmm There's got to be certain countries that You have to touch on one thing and they might just fucking stop breathing, you know, like I've been you know I was in Charlotte this last weekend And I went off a couple of nights. I
Starting point is 00:31:33 Was eating animals and shit, so I went off early. What'd you go off on? Just went off, you know, like on stage like you just go off on a fucking tangent about fucking whatever and I Was kind of risque and I remember that I did this creative entertainment. I remember 30 years ago Oh, yeah, I started out on the southern circuits with us. Yeah, you start out with them For me creative entertainment the two weeks I did with Vinny light bulbs was If I did 10 shows I bombed 11 of them I'm not gonna lie to you and then they put me the headline in Jacksonville
Starting point is 00:32:08 I will never forget this 98 97 Jimmy Schubert got him go. He got the movie go and He had a cancel quick So I could I got a plane ticket for a hundred bucks to Jacksonville and I ate a bag of dicks From Tuesday straight to Sunday Including Friday night after all the oil you could eat buffet, you know, like I just died Tom Tom first off I wasn't a headliner. That was number one. I had the time but that doesn't mean I was a headliner and When I got to those one nighters I couldn't flip it The only one I did decent that was Clarkville or there's an army base was an army barracks
Starting point is 00:32:47 And the only reason why they even liked me even better because before the show Mike They couldn't start the show because the world series was on but I was running a commercial at the time for Taco Bell the first one with the dog It was the first series with the dog and they were popular and I was in this commercial So that's the only reason why they laughed at me But that whole run West Virginia there was a college I did on that run that you did come here on a ping-pong table And if you said the word fuck they find you $50.

Starting point is 00:33:29 $50 if you said the word fuck $50 fine and I didn't find out till you get there. I Was like this is not gonna work. How much were you getting for the set? 250 I was headlining. So what if you said six fucks dig that I'm in the minus. I ain't a bag of dog I ate a bag of dog dicks at University of North Carolina Like my fuck that was the school. I wanted to go to when I was a basketball player I was finally in Charlotte, whatever Chapel Hill. I finally get the Chapel Hill and
Starting point is 00:34:04 Before the headliner goes up. There's a fucking drinking contest through you know It was one of those tours like I just got the kiss of fucking death on me Knoxville was the best night because Some crazy girl was there and it was just crazy. It was just a crazy night But that that was it, you know went on the way home You end the weekend like I did it was two weeks on a creative run tour and the first week was all those one-nighters But the second week I ended up in a club in West Virginia They have and they actually had a real club on Fridays and Saturdays But the problem was
Starting point is 00:34:42 For me to get a ride back to Charlotte. I had to leave at four in the morning to get a free ride So basically I went back to Charlotte to sit in the fucking Denny's All day because my flight was at 10 o'clock at night But I had gotten a guest spot at that same club where I performed last week so this is Nine out of ten bombings in two weeks and I'm going into do a guest set into the Charlotte comedy zone and Not only do I eat the biggest bag of dicks of the week. That was it like that was the longest flight I ever took in my life and I swore on that continental flight because I never forgot what the airline was
Starting point is 00:35:23 But I would never go back to the Bible belt again. Like I bombed everywhere Nashville. I Just went on a fucking like a Vietnam tour Like I just got bombed. That's all they did. I started out doing those shit. Oh my god and I grew my hair long and I was called faggot nine million times Lee in those rooms And I had been doing comedy Time was I prepared? Like I said, there was some rough rooms man
Starting point is 00:35:54 I remember that like that and then there's the booker, you know Like we're gonna book you for these one-nighters in the Carolinas But you got a swing by Memphis and pick up the headliner. Yeah, what the fuck is that? It's nowhere near the Carolinas like that like Tom I've been doing open mics for like two and a half months that probably Even just that I was looking at I'm like I'm after spending like a hundred dollars. I think probably at least a hundred bucks and Then like with gas and just waiting because you sit there for 50 minutes to do five It's like a lot. It's like mentally
Starting point is 00:36:28 You have to like be hard. It's kind of like a taxing a little bit like it's harder than it seems Shitting for the week Like a hundred dollars like and I drove to Brea back and forth one night. I was like Jesus Christ That's what it's fine. That's what you do every night. That's That's the that's what You don't understand when you do it for free, you know, I'm saying like you'll never do anything for free If I tell you time you're busy tomorrow. You want to watch my conjoint? Yeah
Starting point is 00:36:58 You can be the small 25 at least let me get a little six-pack. You know something to get the party started. Yeah We did it for how long did you do it for free for a time? I mean nice a long time Yeah, yeah, it kills me when people still do free sets are you down there? Yeah, people still said I love when people I am I've been doing comedy for three years and Somebody asked me to do a free room. I don't believe him. Okay. Well, he's killed me young guys, Alaska Hey, when can I expect to start getting paid for this? Oh my god? Yeah, you got I think you're You're in the wrong business if you're worried, you know, so they're on there on their first open mic night They're second open mic night and they want to know when they can start making money
Starting point is 00:37:38 I fucking knew in the beginning money No, I like that. I want a contest and they made me the house emcee So I got $50 a week since 200 a month So for two years, I made 2,400 a year That's 4,800 big gizugas guys, you know what I'm saying? Tax-free 50 and all the tater tots you can eat. Oh my god. Oh my god Shrimp shrimp in those days on tuesday nights, but it's just crazy that You uh, this comedy has taken you
Starting point is 00:38:11 All over now. Let me ask you a question Before the mbc show were you were you traveling abroad? No, I was the When the sitcom ended I looked at that money As my nbc artist grant so I started taking trips to london and And that I took in a few trips to london And and that's how I got in once I got in with london Then I started working london and then london was the key to the international circuits for me Because like everything was booked out of london back then all these international
Starting point is 00:38:45 This hong kong china tour australia all these cool gigs. Um, you know, but before that You know, I I told you I lived in new york city when I was 20 Like a dog In washington heights. I couldn't afford anything else and I always swore if I ever had any money Uh, I'd live in new york city with style. So after my sitcom ended I moved to new york and I got a place in the wall street area and uh total rock star pad lived there for two years and then While I was living there and playing new york and you know, I was really
Starting point is 00:39:19 Party and harder than I ever had Um, and then I started taking these trips to london and um, you know, did the peripheral rooms first Because you don't go to the best club first You know, you want to get your sea legs as a performer especially going to a different country But this advice applies for new york san francisco la chicago Yeah, I told you you know, you go to you go to some peripheral rooms first You know, see if your shit's gonna work in that city You don't go to the best club and fucking have a wobbly set and then they remember you as
Starting point is 00:39:52 Some wobbly fucking act, you know, you wait until um, the pistols are hot It's so The little rules in comedy Uh, it's so subtle but that could change your life like I wish it was podcast to listen to when we were starting Yeah, like you know these fucking young guys they listen to you know, they just got that Pearl of wisdom But it's funny how they usually where you start you get no respect Like for years, I wouldn't get booked in denver. Yeah, and then tickets started selling so all of a sudden now i'm in denver
Starting point is 00:40:26 And I get it. I understand the business level of it But throughout my career now one club from denver ever contacted me and said hey man I saw you in a film, you know, right people don't realize that that's the most painful thing That that's your home Fucking club I always say like for you for years. I you know, um I didn't get any respect in orlando and I would always say uh, they thought jesus was a punk in nazareth You know, he had to take his show on the road before he got any respect
Starting point is 00:40:57 You know now orlando book now orlando. Yeah, I've been playing orlando like like 10 years You get so frustrated for years. I couldn't get them to fucking work me and it's like my hometown okay for years there's a club that I used to go by on a bus Before I ever dreamed of doing comedy when I was robbing gas stations. Yeah, I would look at that comedy club It's just a comedy club and go what goes on in there Do you know what i mean? Like I would look at it and go what the fuck goes on in there?
Starting point is 00:41:29 Like I'd never even known on me about stand-up comedy, but I became a comic. I bugged them for years. Can I get in? I'm originally from north berg and no no no no no then finally some of a friend of mine worked there And I asked him to bring me and he brought me and I got like More fucking people came to see me That went to see him. This is 2000 fucking two 2003 maybe 2004 You know, they never offered an extra envelope. They stuck to the original pay four shows for 200 bucks
Starting point is 00:42:07 You know, even though I brought a bunch of people in there and my friends ate in there So for years I would call them and go hey, man Let me have a line. Thanks. Give me no no no they treated me like fucking shit Well, two years ago. They started calling me and offering me like fucking the door Like how about if we just give them the door and I would say no Like for some reason you're supposed to forgive. Uh, what's what's that word forgive and forget that have grudges Yeah, but till this day I have a grudge against them because they never gave me any fucking love when I really needed So you don't play that club? No, I didn't ask them for much. It wasn't like I was even asking them for money
Starting point is 00:42:45 Yeah, I would have done a wednesday night just uh for me to get together with my high school friends and have a good time And they could sell drinks. Yeah, you know, it's so fucking weird how Where you start you that's why you leave. It's because you don't get no respect So if you start in chicago, they don't like you you moved to detroit The next thing you know, you're in LA and people like when we just started started chicago But they hit my fucking guts I think the same thing happens with people in offices like at a certain at us for like I love my first Job here in LA, but at a certain point. They're gonna sit if you start as an intern. They see you as the intern
Starting point is 00:43:20 at For at least for some people some people can break through that but it is hard, I think Well, we were fucking those it's all different with comedy and whatever Yeah Comedy was that it? Yeah. Yeah No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no wasn't comedy was a club called bananas Which is next door to the bottom where they shot the sopranos You don't understand the sopranos in denver. They shot the soprano with a jersey. Oh, okay

They sold it's on the new ownership And i'm considering playing there, but i'm not sure yet They needed to sell, huh? And they just wanted the owners you didn't want to work with those owners anymore That was in the club in jersey where the it was like the owner guy had like a garage sale set up in the front yard in the front Foyet of the club with these glass cases. Do you remember that? I don't know Right now you have the stress factory. Yeah, brand, which is a good club. Love Vinny. I haven't been there in a long time

What a crush You know And there was but then there was rascals There was rascals north and rascals south Rascals north was a fucking great room. Yeah, I think it was rascals south that had the garage sale in the lobby Rascals south was route 35 next to a russian strip club That day you walked in there. You had to have a fucking winter jacket on Russian chicks like the cold

I'm like, why is it fucking freezing in this fucking place? and then bananas Bananas is inside a hotel And there's like a restaurant next to it like a hotel restaurant And bananas is like you're going in they have like lawn furniture It's one of those clubs where they have like picnic tables. What do you mean? They have lawn furniture It's the east coast so nobody gives a fuck like that type of club

Everything was a fucking write-off. No, it ain't No, it ain't Good luck You got to do something a little bit different They have people they're forensic accountants. That's what they do for a fucking living I
Starting point is 00:50:19 Carried the piece up What's going on? I don't know What's going on Tom Rodgers Man, no, I didn't fucking had a bullshit.

Okay, and I've had fucking people send me emails and I just tell you what think it man Just like do some edibles and don't tell her like yeah once I start telling a long story with a lot of pauses She knows You know the goose is cooked. Um, now she just You know, um, she only I only smoke minimal amount of times a month
Starting point is 00:51:23 and uh, treat it like a treat That type of thing has it changed you as a comic then because Don't work focused. I get more shit done. That's you know, because I used to I used to smoke like every day You were professional. What's up? You know, I hate when people use the I hate when people give people stereotypes You're a comic bro When you sign up to be the comic If you know like I I love june gaffigan. I love I love every fucking comic guy, you know, whatever Everybody has their lifestyle
Starting point is 00:51:56 But when I signed up to be a comic it was to do this till you ended up like fucking Lenny Bruce. Yeah, you know That was the book. I'm not gonna lie to you. Yeah me too man. All my heroes died fat Uh, naked and bloated on the bathroom tile. So You know, when you Dive into this you you hope that you get good you figure out how to do it She would figure out the lifestyle we want to live which is a no responsibility lifestyle whatsoever I don't really have an address. I got a p.o. Box somewhere in michigan And that's all you need. I didn't I didn't have an address for 10 years
Starting point is 00:52:30 It's you know, the weirdest thing when you commit to that life For somebody like lee it's imaginable But with comedy you could just drop out Of society right now, lee Like if you didn't want anybody to find you all you would have to do is just do Triple runs get under like a different name. No, you could use lee sciat You're still gonna pay taxes and do anything But nobody would know where you were you would discommunicate with everyone
Starting point is 00:53:00 With comedy you could do that With comedy that's the reason I did it When I fucking left boulder The main purpose was to discommunicate my life had been I already went to prison. I got divorced I I I steeled I lied. I got thrown out of fucking the university I got my gd. I quit high school when I dove into comedy in 1995 That was it. All that was was a pager and a p.o. Box jack You were not gonna get a hold of me. I did not want a cell phone
Starting point is 00:53:33 You I did not want responsibility. I wanted to be charles bronson in the single apartment With some books a little caught And the black and white tv and I was good to go. Yeah, that's why you got into it. I didn't expect to become You know All to have money in the beginning for years. I knew I was gonna suffer I do think I mean, I don't I don't really want to do that. See that's honestly That was part of my thinking whenever when anyone would ask me if I why I didn't do comedy is like I don't really Want like to do 10 years of like that like that doesn't really sound appealing when you guys tell those stories
Starting point is 00:54:08 But when you like you got to do it, you're never gonna get to the you're never gonna get to samurai status Without how long were you broke for before everything started clicking for you? Um 10 12 years remember when you're accepted being broke asleep on friends couches I used to hitchhike to gigs. I'd take grayhound buses in the south to do those buttfuck gigs You talked about earlier those comedy zones those shitholes. You were a fucking hitchhiking. You were 20s Well, no, I was like, uh, I started when I was 17. I went on the road at 18. So like 18 19 I'm in the backwater
Starting point is 00:54:47 Southern circuits And then when I was 20, I moved to new york city, you know, but 18 19 I was doing all those buttfuck gigs all over the south everywhere. I don't mind driving I don't I'll drive everywhere, but I need at least like a motel six or looking I can't I'm not I don't I don't like sleeping On people's houses. Did your family have money that's gonna pay for those hotels and gas and stuff? No, see that Yeah, that's the thing. It's hard. It's uh, no, let me see if you're starting in california too. It's a whole different world You know, here's the problem with me. You can sleep out on the grass anywhere. Here's the problem with me nobody's ever shut the lights off only
Starting point is 00:55:21 and uh, what does that mean To really build yourself up You really got to scrub some type of the bottom to really see the top You know, there's no motel six You know Take this job away from you and go on the road and live on 100 hours a night. You love this So in your heart, you will make it work that vokes wagon becomes uh
Starting point is 00:55:50 Previous Prius, uh, the back has a blanket See, I'd rather do that and sleep in like a looking crappy hotel cooler And you learn to adapt making sandwiches I would I could buy an RV and just do that. That's great. You could buy an RV. Listen to me the biggest gift I got from comedy Was the gift of survival learning how to survive We learned how to survive learned how to pee into a coke bottle while driving. Yeah No, there's no time to stop you just got to get to this gig you learn and you accept
Starting point is 00:56:27 You know, you'll take a gink for 75 bucks to break even Just to get the hotel room that night to cover you till you get the Santa Fe on friday The first gig I ever took out of florida was in Tulsa, Oklahoma I tried the the week to mc for 150 dollars I drew from or I drove from Orlando to Tulsa halfway across the country For I probably cost more than that in gas, you know, I'm sleeping in rest areas, you know, I mean, but I was like 1918-19 I was like and I just felt like I'll never forget pulling into the Tulsa city limits
Starting point is 00:57:05 I mean like I was like excited about it. I felt like I could have been doing like to tonight show or the SNL or something. I remember feeling like man, I'm in show business Yeah, you don't even yeah. Fuck. I'm gonna play in Tulsa. Fuck it. My first gig was My first triple gig was in Ogden, Utah A girl and her boyfriend just tweeted me the other day from Ogden And when I heard that name I went back into that that time for like two minutes How excited I was that I was performing in Ogden, Utah In my world, it was bigger than Las Vegas at that time. My shirt was ironed
Starting point is 00:57:43 My shoes were shine didn't matter. I bombed But what you looked great when I looked good I looked and you know, like that lead that's it's a different mindset You're just so happy to be That somebody's paying you for what you've done for the last four years for free That that's the last start you had I'm asking them to get me the hotel. No, no, no, no, listen to me You probably got three hundred and eighty dollars in your account
Starting point is 00:58:11 When you get this two dollar gig, which is gonna cost you one hundred and fifty to get there and gas them back You're not gonna has nobody for a hotel. I ain't gonna talk to you. This is all done by email You have no negotiation They tell you two hundred hours and sleeping in your car and your car breaks down and then yeah, you live Listen Dean Delray is 50 and I've seen him do things that I admire Dean Delray Because Dean Delray will do a comedy show and wait till 10 o'clock And tap into that website that gives you two hundred dollar hotel rooms for 38. Oh, yeah, I'll do that
Starting point is 00:58:44 And that motherfucker will sit in there till five minutes after 12 the next day. He'll get room service. He'll live like a doctor That there's a way if you really love something right it happens You don't know I have no time thanks. I thought no you go three days without a motel And you'll love what you're doing You'll love eating no subway sandwiches You'll love pulling over rolling those joints And peeing outside in the winter and peeing in the snow It's just becoming I remember being a weed, but you wouldn't make it a hotel room. Listen who cares?
Starting point is 00:59:19 I'd rather have weed in a hotel room and have a story to tell Any day of the week me and jody ferding are driving on the five on a triple run And we've got a two-door car That the back seat the trunk fits nothing There's a two-door car. It was a Saturn two-door Uh coupe and the back was up to the top with woman's clothes Like I had a suitcase
Starting point is 00:59:47 But jody ferding had enough clothes To go away for 10 years And on the top that was a white shirt With a fucking beautiful her favorite white shirt to wear she would wear it on Friday nights Because it showcased the tits She's passed out. I'm in the fucking car. She's like joey We should stop and get a hotel in those days. We never had but she was getting 85 bucks and I was getting 175 I wasn't dating. I wasn't paying for the hotel room if she was freezing I was fucking freezing
Starting point is 01:00:19 And I'll never forget. I was smoking a cigarette with the window, but I would throw the cigarettes out the window And I one of those I'm sitting I'm like, man this car smells fucked up And I look back and I see jody's white shirt with a six inch hole and it's smoking I had to fucking take the shirt while she was sleeping and throw it out the window And something else she owned and I took like a jacket of mine and put it there like nothing ever happened For three years. She kept asking me. I never knew what happened to that white shirt I should call the hotel and shit now. I live on fire Like those of the adventures league

I want to know how it affected your stand-up at night To to to go sober. Yes Uh, it was great. I think the, um Beginning when you make the adjustment it takes it takes a minute. I think

No, no, they're fine He's all right. This poor kid. No, I I remember I had some edibles a couple years ago

It was nothing enjoyable, but no, man He's used to bring a little pillow here Before the niggas Chee-Chee leaves she'll rub his shoulder.

I saw his face He's like, maybe I'm having this while I like that if you were having a stroke you'd still finish the show
Starting point is 01:13:21 I think that's why they're mild strokes. I like three of them All right, what happens is you puke a little bit. It's white. It's foamy You're taking that You get up. You're you're a little dizzy. I don't think like my entrance covers the mild stroke You only have to go to the doctor. I've had a couple mile strokes at the house.

I think in this what's that?
Starting point is 01:13:52 This is why I say that you're always in training This is no training. This is craziness. How many? You have not done an edible Since we came back from awesome. I've been giving you a breather. I figured you go this sunset herbal Get yourself some chiba-choos on your own begin. You're not even conscientious. No more. You've lost it I can't do apples like this every night. You know, it's not like this every night, but you gotta It's training. You got to do this three four nights a week. No, you don't that's why when you go do comedy at night You stop at the weed store first
Starting point is 01:14:25 Then you pop the edibles and then you do comedy. So when you get off the stage Bang bang boom Not up there when you get off stage. I don't that'll help you kick the the adrenaline will help you kick But that's a complete different lesson. I'm trying to have a conversation with mr. Rhodes here I'm about international. So do me a favor and stop making funny faces. You're not gonna make me funny You're not gonna die and if you do don't worry about I got a place where to drop you off. Thank you Nobody's ever gone. He left last night. What are you talking about? He was here. He did the potka. He didn't see him He didn't leave a note nothing nobody saw
Starting point is 01:15:00 Over about a 170 there's a little spot in there We can drop off people nobody knows nothing There's a hawk up there. Do you want to be that girl in that? In that the big dick show, don't you? Oh, absolutely from godfather, too It's what he's gonna be dreaming career opportunities it's
Starting point is 01:15:26 you know I I've always admired you I really have because I learned something from you that you know I got into comedy for all the I didn't get into comedy to be on tv. I didn't get into comedy to do movies I got into comedy to disappear I got into comedy to play shit states
Starting point is 01:15:55 and play shit holes Just to survive if I could just survive and pull a little bit of money away and live that life of riley that we all admire that guy that you know Ever seen we're major league Yeah, what's uh, what's the catcher who plays the catcher in that moment? Nobody remembers Fuck tom barringer Oh, yeah, tom barringer's character is great. He gets a phone call. He's got two naked women on the bed
Starting point is 01:16:29 And he wakes up drunk and he's playing the mexican baseball league and he lives in the whorehouse and you know And that's your life and you wait for the major leagues to call you but until then you survive And someday you get old and you die you accept that you know what I'm saying like that's what I accepted comedy to be I was gonna be tom barringer In the fucking whatever. I was just gonna be a minor league Comedian I was never gonna attain any success if I ever did come out. He had to be an extra But my whole passion with comedy was that I didn't have to have a day job
Starting point is 01:17:05 I didn't nobody needed to know who I was like that's it. I would call a booker. He would book me and that was it Nobody knew nothing I loved that idea when I read that book You know, he he did strip clubs Lenny Claude Lenny Bruce So he would do strip clubs go back to the Chelsea shoot heroin and sleep till fucking Four in the afternoon wake up to get a bagel and locks. Who's better than that? Who's better than that? No responsibility. No phones No, nothing. You don't even want people calling you
Starting point is 01:17:36 That's what I thought comedy was obviously became something else And my life turned into something else, you know, but that first couple of years Especially when you realize you need to live on the road to become a good comic to get a good comic foundation You just become a notemad like I was a notemad and I know you were all you're the king of the notemads But I that's not what I learned from you. I learned that when you get into comedy You look at The spectrum and you go, you know what the highlight of my career would be getting the tv show And for you that wasn't the highlight of your career
Starting point is 01:18:17 You became a great comic The tv show was one of just one of the many things that you did that didn't define you. Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you know, there's some comedians that were great comics. They got a tv show Then they just forget about being the comics I respected all that level But I also respected what you did because I remember seeing you at the improv maybe Four months after the show was cancelled. You didn't have a nice look on your face. Yeah It was at the melrose improv. I could be wrong the timing
Starting point is 01:18:49 But the look on your face wasn't I didn't know you personally I still liked the show and I liked what you didn't win all the comedy I used to watch I was a young comic watching you And I always thought that after a comic show we get cancelled They would just wrap it up and go to sell real estate. You didn't do that Do you know what I'm saying? Yeah, you know like after who who could tolerate that like my show got cancelled You Margaret show you guys didn't give a fuck. It made you a better motherfucking comic. Yeah Well, I mean, you know, it wasn't I mean it wasn't that easy. I mean it was kind of chilling. Yes. I understand that
Starting point is 01:19:29 You know like Show business goes ice cold on you and people you thought were your friends stop taking your call It's crazy and I stuck around la for for like a year after the sitcom was finished and You know people who I I thought were my friends and you know, even my manager stopped taking my calls and It's pretty fucking chilling and then that's why I was like, you know Fuck this town and I moved to new york to Get deep back into stand-up comedy and then also like I said, I started using that money to take trips to london Because london is a massive
Starting point is 01:20:05 Um stand-up comedy town, you know and and brilliant comedy comes out of there and You know, there's people in new york and london and all they care about is stand-up and they don't give a shit about About tv. So and and all I Cared about was stand-up. I didn't that that that tv show was just uh, it was just a blip You're you still with us link? so far It's so weird when I learned the last Oh my god, you know
Starting point is 01:20:36 It wasn't just doing comedy It was also learning About life. I saw a dear friend of mine that Got a big deal twice And I saw how His manager would be everywhere if you saw him You saw his manager, right once the deal fell through. I never saw the manager. I didn't even know Yeah, I knew the deal felt through because I went somewhere and he wasn't with the manager anymore
Starting point is 01:21:02 Yeah, I was like this is deal felt through and even though I would ask him. Oh, yeah, it's still a lot, you know But that has to be Like the way, you know, I was writing about it this last week Like when I got out of fucking county jail the first time for kidnapping and my bail and my name was in the paper In my mind, I thought that you knew like even if I didn't know you and I was shopping, right? And you look at me I go You have like this feeling that people are looking at you as an experience To go through that it was a two-week period
Starting point is 01:21:34 Or I thought when I went to a restaurant to order eggs She was looking at me because I just got out of county jail for kidnapping And I think it would be the same if I had a show And it got cancelled like you think people are looking at all that's happening. There's no shows I don't even know the fucking you want like don't even watch tv You know, but then the people who were close to you That's the weirdest thing
Starting point is 01:21:59 ever When people just stop returning your calls. It's the weirdest fucking feeling. Yeah, you know When I was in the longest yard Adam Sandler has his right hand man You know, many times I call him in the daytime to get directions or something and some phone I mean the day I was off the set he never picked up the phone again. Well It's crazy. Yeah Well, you know, that's uh
Starting point is 01:22:26 20 years later Yeah, well, that's why having performed on every continent and you know, and I had I had many more tv shows after that so Um, but it wasn't even about the shows It's about you stand up at the end. Yeah, that's all this has been about the 34 year journey You never stopped And I'm better than that And I think like if if we boil it down and then that's You know, I'm I'm I'm telling the story in my book. I mean, you know, everything has been for stand-up comedy
Starting point is 01:23:00 You know, I moved to new york or I'm so I moved to new york for for stand-up I moved to europe You know everything because you know, your human experiences are where you're the best comedy material comes from the truth The life you've lived, you know, and so traveling the world moving to europe all these things and then I think ultimately me because for for years partying and Uh, I I got great stories for my act, uh, you know, I so much of my show is, you know Still x stories of excess and then I think it came to a point where
Starting point is 01:23:37 Um, I knew I could be a better comedian if I wasn't fucking drunk every night And when I busted my head open in philadelphia, you know the next day, I I that is the reason why I stopped drinking because I thought, you know, what was your typical drinking day? Well, I mean not not i'm talking about what I ran with you I'm talking about even then you were rocking them roll always No, and that's the thing and I got to the club with me at a quarter eight Yeah, and you get two or three at a shot or something. Well, yeah, then after the show then that's when the columbians showed up You know saying the uh, the hamburger helper for uh for the booze. Yeah
Starting point is 01:24:15 um A normal evening would be like You know, like when I busted my head open it was pretty surprising because it was a pretty normal evening. I had 10 pints of sierra nevada And oh, yeah, I do that. That was it. If I didn't know that was that that was that was that was a thursday And I'll pass out. You know, uh, if I was drinking wine, I would drink. Well, you know If I like if I wasn't uh at a club and getting them by the glass I'd drink probably Uh, you know two or three bottles
Starting point is 01:24:47 Uh, maybe sometimes squeeze out a fourth one. You know, I love booze And I've always been able to handle it and stay up all night. You know, I was a fucking tank How crazy is that? I'm so obvious That that's not one of my shortcomings Like i'm like a fucking retard Like I like my little marijuana and even though I stopped doing the pills and the fucking drinking and the snort The drinking was never my problem But I wish I could look a man in the face
Starting point is 01:25:19 I really do all my life There was a couple of years when I was doing it because I was doing coke And I was trying to act like fucking don johnson So I would see and try to always get a a drink. You know, but it's not my forte It's not my forte to look at lee and go Let's go have three beers at a bar and sit there. I don't know why it's never Been in me. I wish I could I mean, every once in a while, man, I'll wake up one day and go
Starting point is 01:25:50 Man, I go for a fucking cold. I like it. It'll take me eight days to get that beer That's how much of a scary cat I am like when it comes to alcohol You don't drink on planes because you really die That's what killed karry fish and that and this weed The same weed that lee got the headache from this is the weed that killed karry fish. No way. Yeah, it's the weed She smoked the night before no way No, but I wish I was a social drinker If I could do it again, I wish
Starting point is 01:26:23 I could Like in the 70s all the tv shows had Bottles with no labels on them and people if you walked in the thing automatically I didn't even ask it. It was No, Kishi, what are you drinking tonight? No, it was brown. That's all you needed to know I went I opened up a thing.
