A little arrow smith little heroin music for you on a Wednesday
Oh
First hour max before you see you know
Oh
Damn, that's a good fucking jam Steve Renize easy in the house part two of our little conversation
We're having my books and shit, but by the way, it's for a show that's coming out called authors
Oh, yeah, where they take they just do a take on authors, which I think is interesting, too
There's so many great podcast ideas that I'd love to
Do don't have the time of course like just one with authors, you know
Yeah, just get like three fucking houses to either have the authors call in and talk about their writing experiences
That's that's always
Fucked with me
I've interviewed a couple authors or two authors on my podcast and just their styles and talking about what they you know
One grew up in Brooklyn this guy Reed Coleman and just went to a public school got dropped off latchkey kid
Just started reading crying novels was his thing and then he just started like in college started writing shorter and shorter crime novels
And that's what he wants to do and he's actually the guy that's gonna write the prequel to heat I think it's heat
Right. He's doing they're doing a prequel or something like that to heat
That's crazy crazy. That's crazy that they would do a prequel to heat when heat was such just to rip off of thief. I
Didn't see thief. Nobody has nobody has because it won the cons film festival 1980
It's a movie with James Kahn
Belushi's brother
Nelson and Tuesday. Well, really? Oh 1980. It's one of the greatest fucking movies
You know, if you watch the Godfather the regular Godfather comes on. It's a great James Kahn is great
Mm-hmm, but if you watch the woman they put those old pieces back in
James Kahn ain't that really good. Now you're talking to somebody who's a James Kahn fan
Okay, I'm telling you that some of those scenes. He did you watch him go?
Who was his acting teacher these scenes are terrible
But what they got them in the Godfather?
Yeah table telling them that you know, you joined the army and all that shit
Mm-hmm. You're gonna hurt your dad on all that is brilliant, but thief
He just hit it out of the park. I gotta check this thing out
So that was Michael one of the Michael man's first movies
So Michael man made thief and the prequel to silence of the lambs called
Search of the green dragon or something like that. Okay, and Hannibal like there was completely different
Yeah, I vaguely remember. Okay. Yeah, I that movie was Michael Peterson
Michael Peterson went on to do a movie called to live and die in LA. It's red dragon red dragon red dragon
So if you look at the Hannibal like there in there, you're like who the fuck is that as a matter of fact?
This is crazy because last night
Silence of the lambs was on and and Hannibal was on afterward and I remember thinking to myself
This guy is so good at this role like he hid it out in the fucking park
I'm the second one when he fucking takes the guy. Yeah, I'm out in the building and takes his guts out
Oh, the fucking knife and his guts come out into the fuck. Yeah, La Plaza. Yeah, so whatever the fuck it is
He's brilliant. Yeah fucking brilliant. That's a killer. Yeah, and it done wrong. It's just gross
And I read that book in prison
Really like I read that book word for word and I see that movie and it's the exact book
There's nothing they shot that whoever executive produced that they cut a deal and whoever the author was he said
If you move it around or fuck it up, it's you're done. Wow. This has to be it's done. Just like the fucking book
They don't miss nothing. There's nothing added. You know when you watch when you read Donnie Brasko, there's a whole
Chapter about what he did in Milwaukee with the central mob the people who live in Milwaukee. Okay, they're into vending machines
There's a whole you know when you read good fellas good fellas
Is really about when you read Henry Hills book. Yeah, yeah, yeah when you read
Whatever it's called wise guy. Yep when you read wise guy
It talks about Henry how Henry Hill got really in that they took out the book
Of the movie his son Paulie
So he was friends with Paulie since he was a kid
You follow me the same way I was friends with Anthony Balzano when he was a kid got it
So whatever Anthony got Joey got because that's how they were raised
So if Paulie got a job in the beach house in the summer, then he took Henry Hill
That's how Henry Hill got him with the Varios
They don't tell you that in the book. They tell you in the movie. They tell you a complete different story
But in the movie, I mean in the in the book they talk about them being bus boys
In a exclusive bar in Long Island
I wonder if that's done if there's versions of the script that are like that that have all that stuff still in it
you know, I have a version of a good fellow script and it's
Similar to the movie it's only revisions. Okay, just gave it to me as a gift
In Toronto, there was a store that the the guy sold scripts with signatures
Yeah, I'm gonna shoot this one signed. I don't know who the fuck I don't know if it's did you read it
Is it similar to the shooting script or the one they shot or no?
There's a couple of things that are out of place. It's so weird
Okay, because they make adjustments as they shoot a movie a lot of people know that you know when I first got analyzed that
They were shooting that in New York and I'm not kidding you guys
This is how much we that's why when you guys would read about a movie and they go
Oh, well it made 800 million dollars and then you go to box office mojo
And you see how much it costs and you see how much that film costs to make
And you go wow now if that film is 180 million guys, I'm gonna tell you something at home
60 million of that is pure waste. Yep
It's a write-off guys
It's an investment for the movie company. That's why they have to turn that movie around so quickly
That's why it's very rare that a movie company if if we put a lot of move money into a movie
That movie's coming out whether it sucks. It's coming out, you know, they'll they'll run it through it's different
What do you call those focus groups?
Yeah, get a rating we'll kind of feel for it. I don't even think they're running them through focus groups anymore
They're so fucking bad when movies cost a lot of money
They're coming out on big days where they want people to go see movies
When you see a movie that costs a lot of money that they're burying at different times
Like that are not popular you can tell those are the ones they probably don't have the listen how many even how many movies
Are making money? Look what happened this last weekend?
How many movies are really making money anymore?
It's the marvel movies or the fucking comic books the black panther movie killed it this year
Yep, or or it's the guys like seph rogan who are doing like
15 to 20 million dollar movies that are making 60 to 70 million dollars or now 100, you know
So now what you're doing is you have guys that that were like seph rogan made a couple of movies for 15 million dollars
Like the dictator movie or whatever that was and they probably made about 50
Now he has a budget of like 25 or 30
Because those movies are making 100 or 120 now like the you know
Neighborhood watch and those other movies that he's producing and directing and stuff
So he he's got a formula where if you don't ask for too much upfront
You know, you've got a fan base that's going to build that's going to make you now
It's not going the big exceptions are like get out
You know like jordan peels movie that you make for you know four million dollars and then it makes
250 million dollars and gets nominated for an oscar. I mean that
That guy should he should be able to make whatever he wants for the rest of his life because think about how you know
How much money he made the original and rest investment eight million dollars
I think the shooting budget was well eight million dollars
Well, listen, and it made it's probably 250 million dollars. We've all
We've all fucking been or been part of movies or whatever where
I've been on a day movie
Yeah, you got to get something. There's a fucking apple and and cheese chips those chips with cheese in the middle
Processed chips the six pack. Yeah, that's it. I've been on those movies guys. I know 100 hours a day
I've been on those movies never been on movies where there's lobster tails on friday. Oh, yeah
You know mall cop
We were like had segues to drive around whenever we wanted to those little fucking the mall cop segues
You want to go to the other end of the mall? Take a segway. Here's a jacket. Keep it. Don't worry
There's a nintendo in your fucking hotel room, you know, and that's what people don't really get that
You don't really need 60 million to make a movie that the the studio gives you that
And you could chop it up and weigh so that's the thing though, but you have to spend it
Yes, see that's the thing
But do you have to that's what i'm that the point is i think they're saying is like do you have to spend it
Do you have to buy everyone jackets and nintendo's instead?
You just go look instead of getting that shit. We got a tighter budget
We're going to work a little harder for a little shorter, but
Instead of that we don't have as much pressure to make as much money
You know i'm saying the mall cops that that have that extra budget and even for the budget
You did the first mall cop. Yeah, the first one and the budget wasn't even that much money
It was a fucking home run. It was 30 million 24 million dollars and it made a hundred
January on martin luther king weekend, which has now turned into a great weekend. Yes
Plopped it up with mall cop huge and it's funny because i still remember shooting spider-man
And walking on sony lot and walking to my room and my
Let's say the fucking like
And let's say it was studio six
My room was fucking. I have my walk
You know, I was a nobody. Yeah, there was a nice room. Yeah, no idea. I never forget walking and seeing susan
And going what are you doing here? And i'm like i'm shooting spider-man doesn't get the fuck out of here
Like what are you doing here? Because i'm trying to get kevin james a film career. Yeah, he was a tba
And then he got him hit you
Yep, and i never forget that i went out to dinner with rogan and him one night and i go hey, bro
I give props and props to do remember when i bumped into you and the spider-man set
He goes, yeah, what were we talking about? He goes kevin james getting the movie. I go you got him an itch
Yeah, you got him and fucking him. We'll smite that that would
Launched him for fuck it and then he did more and then he did mall cop his own thing
And that was it and I mean that just he's so likable in that movie. He just took off huge numbers
He I mean that was that's a that made a lot of money, but then you I the other movie I did eddie murphy movie
It's called imagine that the shooting budget is 92 million dollars
It's made 16
16 17 you could look it up. I think it's 17
That I mean think about that l for paramount
Think about that l that's a big
l
But here's where people don't understand that you have all these l's
But all you need is three home runs. Well, he's having hundred million dollars eddie murphy's got well. Yeah, I know
I mean, so he's got a track record of you know, but you take an l like that
And a couple of those he took a couple of those you know or black Dracula Norbit
He took a couple beatings there for a while. Yeah, I was I
There's a whole crew of us that were all in those movies we were all thrilled yet to work with eddie murphy
And he was they never you know, it was never really there
What was the name of the movie imagine that
I think it made
17 million dollars it's 90 million
The movie business is fucking the entertainment was 10 years ago
Well, I mean it's rough jack if you're not eddie murphy like if you guys are acting in a movie
Do you see more money if they sell out tickets?
What do you mean? I'll say that again like if you make more money if they sell a lot of tickets
You or joey? Yeah, and like yes from all cop. I get residual checks movies that are successful
Especially worldwide is that from tv or like when they play on tv and dvd sales or is that ticket to every dvd sales
That's internet now. That's when they played on hbo and shit
Because like what I was thinking was is like if they took away all those perks for you
You know that you know the studio is making millions and millions
Do you really care if you if like if like would you really be like, okay?
Yeah, I'll give up all that food and I'll give up the nintendo because I want to make it like 500 more bucks
Well, here's the deal you will if you make if you know you're making a good movie
But if you're a guy that just gets 25 million dollars a check and it's just like well
What's the next grip coming through and you just do it like it's a crappy movie like we did like eddie murphy
Well, how many times are they gonna, you know, they're not going to give you 25 million dollars
Any more to do those movies? Oh, they might because it's a fucking write-off
When it's easy, you know, they have a certain amount of money to make a certain amount of movies
But I think they'd rather give 12 kids two million dollars to make a little movie like that
They might just blow up than eddie murphy 25 to be in anything. I don't think that way
You've been here for 20 years. You've seen it. Yeah, they don't think that way
I just i'm optimistic that he can like figure something out people. Listen, we're all in the car
I'm always in a I love to hear stories about
A guy that put together a movie for three million. He had a fucking co-sign his mother's and grandmother's house
I shot a movie called you got nothing
Okay, mm-hmm this motherfucker sold the script
Sold the script moving somebody attached the whole thing. He wanted to play some western store
His girlfriend signed with somebody's manager fey doneaways manager
You know hip pocketed her so what did he do?
this guy had done
Seven episodes nypd blue or he had a lion or less
Guess what he did boy like they came to him. I'm not kidding you guys
they came to this is
2003 this is the first movie I ever did that was more than one day

And this is the first one we ever did where they put you on a plane
And we shot sacramento and I didn't have to shoot for two days and I got a grandma ball at a bar

It was such a shame because while we were doing it they kept talking about their lives and their money and
The investment they had and they weren't trying to spend they really
Were keeping the budget low. I mean that wasn't a nice hotel or something. It was like a motel six in sacramento
I was really excited. I had like eight days on the movie. Yeah

And she doesn't even like you bringing the sides in you got to be off book off book from the pre-read
Those days in the pre there was to impress you. You got to be there in those days. There was a pre-read
Yeah, you got to go to the odd the the casting director first before that you she puts her fucking neck out there for you
So she was going to pre-read and then you would fucking do this and then there was six hoops

Just we just bring them down to find something for yeah, so they called me jojo. He called me jojo. That's amazing. This is this is
You know, this is like fucking this guy was everything to me. I had to do everything I had to do
To keep cool in front of him. Mm-hmm
Like everything I had to do like when I watched the young comedian special with bill hex and
Canis and all those guys and he's hosting they're hilarious
But he was fucking hilarious in between. I still remember gonna see easy money with beers
And the movie was sneaking beers and as soon as the movie started all you heard was beers opening up the whole
Like I still remember being excited for easy money two weeks out
I was nervous meeting my girl my girlfriend at the time now my wife's father
And I remember when walked in a couple times I met him
But the first time I really was bonded we sat down and watched back to school
And we laughed at the same time at the same. It's just it's impossible not to laugh
It was the first movie he showed me like when we first started first started going to his house
He like pulled me down. He had it on his dvr. Which one back to school. No, no easy money. No the one with the he's a photographer
Oh easy money. Yeah, I'm sorry. It's historical because it's funny on so many different levels
Fucking just visually. It's a funny. He's a funny perhuman being. No, you know, I don't lose my mind
Like I saw the america in the store. I didn't lose my mind poem woolly
I didn't lose my mind. There's a lot of people at the store when I first got there, but
Here I am in a roddy movie
And there we go
Go knock on this trailer and see what he wants to do to you and I would walk and then he'd have a robot
He was naked under the robe and shit
smoking weed and the fucking thing and I'm like
He doesn't have an idea
That if he told me to suck his dick right now, I'd Harvey him like that's how much I idolized
Rodney like just he was apart. Yeah done like done like he was who I was
So for six days, I just got to watch this old Rodney
But I didn't give a fuck. Yeah, I think he was old. He couldn't remember his lines guys
He would come out just to do his lines
You know like they would yell the lines lines
So they would say uh, but then he would just he would he was old. Yeah, it just wasn't him
He just doing movies for the check for his pension now
Well, he didn't start till he was 50, but he was still smoking dope and drinking
And walking around with a robe barefoot like he was just a fucking legend
And like I I talked to him a few times like we would talk about the scenes and shit
Jojo and this is what we're gonna do here. Take your shirt off. Let me show you look
You don't like like there's one scene where I'm 400 pounds. I'm just sitting there with no shirt on
In the fucking prison chair looking around. Look at this guy, huh? The movie is god awful. Oh, man

Since I got into the prison
The good things that I did and the bad things that I did
And I gotta tell you this is like my good accomplishments and my bad accomplishments
Let's say your bad accomplishments are triple
Your good accomplishments, but you just did a couple good things like I I keep looking at this list and going
That was a good move. Yeah, that was a good move like
That was instinct, you know, like now I'm looking at what made me do those moves
And I look at the other moves and it's just just straight up drug mistakes drug
And stupidity drug and just being 20. Yeah and being 30 and being immature
You oh my god, I got out of prison at 25 years old
And
You know, I had been through
From 16 it didn't end like it just didn't end prison was like the first time that things slowed down
Like who I know where I'm gonna get an apple from tomorrow. I thought was the first time
So when I got out of there, but did you need it? You think that I need prison at that time
It was either gonna happen then or now
But somewhere it was gonna come down and it was either gonna be a
I think they've got a I did a mistake and I got a short sentence and I went out with my life
But in those 30 years, I just wanted to crown a lie, you know, like got married blew the divorce
You know after I knocked my wife up
Like I was falling apart
Like most men do it when you knock a woman up those nine months are fucking emotional for a man
We keep it together like I'm having a child. Yeah, but deal. I'm so excited. His name is lucifer
But deep down inside you're breaking inside. You know, yeah, what if I slip?
I can't slip. There's no more fucking up the net's gone. There's no more fucking up. Like that's it
Yeah
Like every punch I throw
Has to connect. Yep
And that's what and you got to pull something too. It's weird how life
Throws though, like you guys I went to the break. I went to pee and you're like, I don't know when I'm ready to have a kid
I've said this once I said this outside. You're never ready to have a kid. No
You're never ready to get that big movie. Nope. You're never ready to get that big call from a producer to do that big comedy show
But you step up
And you cover the spread
And you walk out and go
Yeah, well and we figured out they didn't let me see they didn't see me sweat
That's the most important thing like I look at that list and I go. Oh my god. I mean, I don't know how I did that
I was howling
howling
But the moves that were good
were thought out
I know that they were calculated
Like the stand-up what makes you get on stage the first time
pure
Fucking stupidity
Alcohol and bravado. Yep. You don't know why you get on stage the first time
You have no idea. You know, I like I threw this poor bastard up on stage in Chicago during my special
He did great and he never talked about it again. He was an experience
It was such a rush. Oh my god. You don't know my name. It's it's it's what are you doing?
Why'd you get on stage?
For me? Yeah, I mean dumbest thing we ever did. It was the dare
I mean, I was I'm like, I don't really want to do it. My my girlfriend was like, I'm gonna sign you up tonight drunk
I'm like, all right. Let's do it
Get on stage tell three minutes of jokes
Had people told you were funny before kind of yeah, but I feel like you're either
There's only a certain amount of people that would ever take the risk of doing that and embarrassing themselves
That's a small amount and then out of that amount anyone that's willing to do it
That's ever willing to do it again or multiple times. That's even smaller
So I think it weeds out real fucking quickly
real quickly
The people that are like never meant to do it, but the whatever whoever's drawn to that
microphone for whatever reason
mostly it's just
Yeah, for me was like some sort of false bravado thinking that I'm funny person that I could do it and
a little bit of alcohol
That's it
and going back
Is because I felt okay and I didn't something about being on stage was like, oh
I'm this isn't the worst feeling in the world. I kind of at some level enjoy this
Are you saying there's something about how much?
I really want to hate my wife and how much I like to stab her and how much I like to do a lot of
to my ex-wife, but
She did what she had to do and I can't be mad at her for that, but she did do one thing
She fucking like I kept calling up comedy works and cancel it
Oh really and yeah, and then one day I told her I got a spot and she got a babysitter
So she put me against the wall. Yeah go down there. We went got dinner. It was like a date night
And I went down there with her and I fucking got on stage and when I got off that owner of the
Comedy works is there at Nichols at the time
He's like keep doing it. You got stage presence and shit now. I remember like walking up the stairs the comedy works going like how
Am I gonna keep doing this? Yeah, like I have a wife and a child like what am I gonna tell him?
Like I remember the next couple weeks at work. It was like
I hope this ladder falls, you know like
Because I was a roofer and I would help them I would estimate roofs
And then we're going like I wish this ladder falls and I break my legs so I could get out of roofing
And while I'm rehabilitating getting to stand up kind of like I was like, yeah
Like I didn't know how I was gonna do it
And I kept getting on little stages and I kept eating a bag of dicks
Then I went to New York for 10 days just strictly to do blow
Like I hadn't been in New York for six years. I left in 85. It's 91
And I just basically went to New York to do blow
And get on a few stages and I went to a few places and
It was kind of scary and I just did blow. I went to bianque stadium every night and bought fucking
I rented a car from Hertz and it was like a white police car
You know, every time I go to the Bronx, these black people would run away and I'm like, no, I'm not the cops
I could try to blow with a white police car. Oh my god. I was taking cash advances on this credit card. I was
Those big percentages fall on those fucking 18 at least on those things. Oh, they hit you out
That's how the first time you got a cash advance on a credit card. You're done
Yeah, because the tags onto everything
The 18 tags onto everything. Yeah, because the 100 they're not charging you $100 on your credit card
They're charging you 118 and then you don't pay that and then the interest is on the 118
They're gonna pay I went bananas when I got divorced. I had like every credit card in the world
And I went through them like a fucking bandit
The worst day I ever did was discover like I tried to reapply for discover
I got a fucking application came back ripped up
Like mush is taking some shit
It came back ripped. I got a discover card in college
And they gave you a t-shirt with it like a long sleeve t-shirt
And I remember playing basketball that day and I had to go
To a class and then I had to go do something later on. I didn't want I had it was all sweaty
So I wanted I basically just wanted to fucking tea. I wanted a long sleeve t-shirt. So I signed up the card came in the mail
$12,000 later, you know, they give these fucking cards to people. I don't know
$12,000 and about six years later. I finally pay this fucking card off
I still have this fucking t-shirt
It's got a thousand holes in it and my wife keeps trying to throw it away
You touch that it was a $12,000 fucking t-shirt. I'm gonna be buried in that fucking t-shirt
It's got the discover card on the front of it
Thousand holes up the fucking sleeve and shit holes everywhere
But I held on to that fucking t-shirt because it cost me 12 grand
$12,000
I don't know if they still do that, but they signed
They had discover
Mastercard diners club all in the fucking union hall of the college of the college
That's how I got up. That's how I got as soon as you get alone
Soon when you go to that that that intro day. Yeah, there was an intro that had huts. I couldn't believe it
I was like a candy candy store
I was a thief and I just wanted a fucking t-shirt. Here I am with like eight g's in my pocket
Scholarship money from pool Latinos. They donated
I'm signing up for classes. I'm withdrawing
I'm okay. I'm banging out these checks. I'm a fucking animal collecting wick. Nobody knew nothing. Nobody knew nothing
No, not even my wife. I had money coming in from a high scholar
I had a friend. That's what he specialized in
You paid him 500 bucks and all he did was get you scholarships
And he had lists of them five nickels. Oh, I was getting nickels. I was just banging them out like they were my money bang
Fucking
I was saw an eight ball and I got a nickel and saved 250 fuck that then I go get a jacket
Then I go to the movies. I go get a fucking one of those chicken fill sandwiches
I need three or four of those chick filets
In bold. Do you think I'm kidding? But I'll never forget going to pick up
a pal grand
$2g ones. Yep. They're free and I was like, oh, I'm going to get some blow it all this shit
And I go downstairs and the visa girl came up. Oh, how are you? Did you get a pal grand? Yes. I did you qualify
Really sign me up sign me up. I signed every one of those things the week later
All those cars came in the mail with a nickel and let me tell you something. I didn't touch those fucking things
didn't touch them
Didn't touch them got locked up came out didn't touch them
every once in a while like I go to
No, I'm one there was one car and I would repay but it would kill me
That's why I didn't gamble because I don't like paying that motherfucker on thursday
That's what happens with a credit card. You're out spending drinking. I would go to
What's that place that gives you the bottomless fries?
Robin robin and bold I had a coco loco
That would fuck you up like vodka and fucking gizanga juice and ice cream
I got up to like
Thousand pounds drinking 10 of those a night and putting them on my credit card the 16 grand 1000 grams of sugar
Oh my god, bottomless fries. I used to spend there and had a place called the harvest
I would get my credit card and it would just be harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest harvest
Harvest was a vegan joint. Okay, that I thought was just the tea you had methan it
The tea would make your hair stand up. Seriously. I wish I'm I wish I was lying. It was like a cinnamon tea
When they
Tried to switch it because celestial seasonings is in london, colorado
That the ball bolder. Okay, basically
So I guess they put celestial seasonings in the town got together and signed the petition for the harvest to bring the tea back
This is 1987 80 889. I was I went in the harvest
every day
From 1987
to about 1994
Jesus for tea every day. I went in there for tea
The swiss granola or the australian pit chicken or the vegan despacho
That's all I ate was the harvest. Hmm
I loved it. The breakfast was the best high calorie breakfast. You could eat it was fruit
This fucking frozen vanilla yogurt. It doesn't sound bad with blueberries, but a ton of granola
Which kills you it was called swiss granola with two pieces of multigrain toast and butter
That's what I'll eat for breakfast every day heavy on the bananas and the blueberries
No kiwi none of that shit. I would go in and destroy those things
So for years I kept my credit card use low. I didn't know but when I got separated
What do I give a fuck
I started burning through those things like a motherfucker, but the last one was discover
Discover I just took to the cleanest because they were done with me
But I got home coked out when I started looking through the drawers and I found those discover checks
Discovered checks. Oh, yeah
They were like you get a hand you know, whatever you get a credit card. They also send you three blank checks
Oh, I don't remember that same thing is getting in advance my buddy
His dad was a gambler and they almost lost the house off those checks
Don't give me those checks. You could put whatever you want. So I waited till that was a saturday night 10 o'clock
Wow, I fucking signed it for a thousand
And there was a bank of boulder
And I had like 300 in my I don't even know I don't even know no
I couldn't add 300 I had no money in my bank
And next you know, I put in the driver's window
And usually the check would come back into a tube and I picked open it up and it was
$100 bills
I took that money and ran. What's that feeling like?
But I had also taken a loan out from these people for the Acura at the time I had an Acura car
And I had my bank loan with them. So I guess they but from monday 905 my phone ran
to Diaz
But we have bad news for you discover declined that check you better bring back that thousand dollars. What?
I was like
Me and some girls snorted that shit that poor girls on the bus right home thinking to herself what happened
Dude thinking to herself what happened. She was coming over to snort a line and go meet her girlfriend
She ended up sucking and fucking for two days in that basement of debt. Oh god, and they were serious, probably
Yeah, I never heard that they go 12 o'clock. I said I called the lady at the bank. What do you mean?
You have to tell me what are you gonna do over clock discover some of the press charges? I said, okay
And I fucking called the lady I had the loan with
And I told her what happened. I go was a mistake whenever she goes. Let me see what I could do
That's fucking up my clothes went back and she goes what I'm gonna do is tack on the thousand
We're gonna pay discover and tack the thousand on to your car loan. That's how fucking
Ballsy I was well
So one night I'm taking the Acura. I'm going to a nugget game
I got two tickets to see the nuggets courtside
And I hit black ice and I fucking bang out those Acura rims or a thousand dollars a piece
I bang out the fucking Acura rim. I gotta drive home with a flat tire. You know me. I'm lazy
I don't know how to change the tires. Just drove home. I didn't give a fuck. Oh my god. I'm making payments on this car
So Mike Kessler the wolf that's been on the show like he worked. He was a general manager at the
At the accurate place. I told him listen leave the leave the keys in the car
I'm like over there one night. Just take the Acura and take a bring it in the house take the tires off and switch rims
This is how crazy I was dog. I was proud of my mind. You did that
Please I can't talk to it because people will know
I think you just copped to it. No, no, I didn't say no not necessarily necessarily. It's funny as shit
Oh my god, and then there was another there was a dealership up there
And I was I knew them I used to go up there sell them coke and shit
And I used to go up there at night and I used to get Gouda cheese
I love Gouda cheese crackers and then freshly squeezed honest juice and I would sit there at night. Look at the accuracy
And one night I go, let me see if the door is open
And the door was open and I went in and it was a friday night. I went into the dealership. This story's out
So I don't give a fuck
And I knew where the spiff box was where they have the cash for saturdays like if you sell the most
And I clipped the bag it was like 300 400 the next day they blame this guy named david means
Who lived in florida? I mean he was a thief and a coke fiend
There was a bunch of coke fiends who worked at the Subaru. It was a slag
Subaru accurate dealership. Oh my god
I got it. I got a hide on the accurate side and I was fresh out of prison
And I had a big chip on my shoulder dog. I was out of control
Really? Oh, I was out of control when I was in the halfway house dog
I was itching for a fucking
And the guy's name was jeff jensen
I still remember the nicest white guy in the business
And my first three days there. I sold three cars. I had already made like three grand
And I could have used to have a car called the vigor
And the finance guy was black and he drove in vegas so they used to call him the nigga with the vigor
You can't write this shit. You understand me. I mean, yeah, this is only in bolder because they were racist people
So I could used to have a car in 1988. Look at that. Look who invented the nickname though
That's all I remember the dealership dealership. You gotta have a nickname. It was fucking hilarious. So
One day I found out something they were gonna revoke my probation or something
So jeff jensen was one of those guys that was just the night, you know, like the guy from zany's nashville
No, yeah run or door or door. Nice. This guy in the world. Yeah, this is the nicest guy in the world
It was only sold in america from 91 to 94
See it was called the vigor and they
Listen, there wasn't a black person in the 90 mile radius. They bought that vigor. No that that there wasn't a
Person 90 mile radius a black person
And the one black person they hired them to be the finance manager at the accurate store and then they gave him a vigor
So the white dudes just sit there that were racist and they'd go look at that fucking vigor with the nigger
with the nigger with the vigor
And I would just sit there and go there's only in bolder because they are racist fucking those, you know, it's a
That's why they had all the problems with the football players. They're shit like that
We do 8 000 podcasts last two podcasts. We said that we're like 18 times because it's true
It's not a racist word, but usually I'm not using a racist term at all. Well, you're just repeating it with what?
Yeah, no, no, I'm just repeating what they were saying, you know I'm saying I mean that
Why would they make that obviously what did the car look like do you have a that's right? Yeah, I mean it was a smaller
whatever
It was a smaller version of the fucking car that put them on the map
Oh the uh
What's the car that put them on the map this well, they just look so old that's four door whatever that was
Oh, yeah, that looks like a dots. Yeah
So
Integra Acura, what was it the Acura? I had a two door Acura Integra. I used to call it the act
The white little Integra with the fucking it was tremendous
It had the best fucking stereo system in the world. I bought it from my brother jim wheeler bigger for fucking book
Oh, really?
For book and then we got like 11 five from the bank. We chopped up a nickel piece
You know us dog always wheeling fucking dealing because he gave it to me from book
But it was worth more of the stereo. They had paid the kid like eight thousand for the car
He told me if you just put five over on the thing. I saw you the car right now through the bank
So that's what I did. Oh, perfect. And they paid off the thousand dollars, too
Then no no no no no no no when I left colorado. I just left that car on the corner
I just left on the corner
Dog I listen like I owed I had no insurance
Yeah, so I had I hadn't made a payment and fucking I used to hide the car and on the bushes
I had to hide the car three blocks away under fucking camouflage
So you parked your car at night three blocks away. They were looking for me. They were looking for a tarp on it or whatever
Oh, no, I would park in some guy's garage. I told him I had a problem
He would let me park in there and he parked outside so the tow truck could knock the door down
It was I was going through how I was starting comedy. Yeah, I was in my 32nd year comedy
All the money I was making was paying an attorney off to keep the wolves off me from my ex-wife
I was committed to comedy at that point 93. I was like in like that's it. This is what I want to do
So it was just a rough patch. I had it was just a really rough patch and I just left the car there
And you know what years later with my credit app. There ain't nothing there. So it's crazy
I had two cars dissolved into paperwork that I know I owed money on
I had a car in 83 that I bought off one of those buy here pay here
and the bank got involved and
I left on 143th street 135th street in the small storm one that came back three days later
They picked up like a chicken bone. I was just pay was down to the frame on bricks. I never said nothing
I didn't call a cop. I just got on the plane to colorado
And dog that thing still hasn't popped up on my credit app
I got like a perfect credit store now and I got my amix back and I banged amix
For years that when I was going to that divorce
I would drive up to the casino because you can't get a cash advance from amix
Unless you go to a casino on those days
Oh, really? Why because the fucking pit boss will call american express himself. I'll say steven's easy needs a nickel
Wow
Yeah, and then in the 90s into in the 90s
If your car if your car had a five thousand dollar limit and you went to las vegas
You just call the pit boss
A pit boss would up your fucking limit on the car. Do you know that? No, I would go to lanc city
Yeah, but we'd have to play we were under 21 to get our IDs chalked and stuff
So we just wanted to win cash. We weren't looking for big big wins
Something that we didn't have to like go in and sign paperwork for a couple hundred bucks. That's all we were looking for
But I didn't realize that you needed like if you needed to get a cash advance
You needed to talk to someone a fucking pit boss or a dealer or someone like that to get you a cash advance
Fuck they get your cash advance. They call the card for you. Bump your limit
And get your cash advance
Damn, that's how much strength they had like in the 90s 80s a fucking casino in las vegas
Well, you can still do it now. He would know somebody at the company
Like let me talk to mariam mariam joe over here at the yeah ceases
Seattle a nice guy big player been coming in for about four years. It's got 50 000 limit on this car
I went up to 75 000
Let me see what I could do. Yeah, okay, and then you'd be able to go. You heard they could still do that
Oh, I want no, I know you can get an advance. I didn't know it makes sense though because the casino probably has a relationship
And they're probably like, well, we'll cover the losses. Like well, like we'll just have him or us
Like they they they probably like I'm I wouldn't be surprised
Yeah, I destroy and it makes sense
They just want you gambling while you're spending money in my fifth year of comedy fourth year comedy
I would get through a comedy club
And somebody would go somebody just called here for you
Called this number and I would go that's hbo
That's an agent
And I call them back and it's like hey joey sam's from fucking discover. Oh my fuck
You have no idea how many places I would go then they call me
You never had student loans or anything. Did you I mean besides like they came after you for those pills and shit like that or
No, no those are just like yeah came after me about seven years ago for the student loan
Oh, they did they found you. Oh, yeah seven years ago. Yeah
Where they try to pop you if you don't mean you know
But I had to pop me for could I grab one of those too a big fucking envelope
Holy shit seven years ago. That's a while after too. Fuck. I skipped. There's no statute of limitations on that
No, not on student loans student loans. They will fucking hunt you down. Listen. If you die
Your wife is responsible. Yeah fucking student loans
There's a big vice article a year or two ago about people who are leaving the country and just never coming back
But they're not going to pay their student loans like they'll get arrested if they ever come back to america
Seriously, yeah, they don't they don't fuck around you get a letter
As soon as they see something
listen, I didn't pay taxes from
91
2000 like fucking three
My wife god bless her talked me into going to the irs
And I've said it a thousand times
They were the nicest people in the world
But i'm gonna tell you guys something
You don't have to pay taxes
Do you know people that don't make no one's like have you make 30 g's a year?
Oh, let's say you're a wheeler dealer and you're making cash. You have to pay taxes
But i'm gonna tell you something
If you're making money they know it
If you're making deposits and cash and checks
They know it and they in time they'll come get you
They'll come get you when you make money
That's why those years they told me that I wasn't responsible from 91 to 80. You'd only go back seven years
Those years it doesn't matter. I made I made no money one year
I made money the other fucking seven years were $8,000 years in 1996. I made $8,900
In 1995 I made like $9,000
One of those years I made
72 because I made 60 000 in december working for a sports betting service. I made $12,000 one year
You know delivering chinese food trying to just put angles together
But all those years let's make a new brand. I made like $20,000 in 2002. They don't give a fuck about $9,000. What are you gonna do with $9,000?
When you start making money, they will reach out and touch you remember that them reach out and touch somebody
What was that? They'll reach out and touch them. They know exactly where you are, especially now
Especially today
Yeah, now you can't go anywhere, you know when I was doing all this crazy shit
Remember we were still you know, I was telling these guys a story the other day
that had a friend who used to
Was I telling AJ or you about my buddy with the with the ATM cards?
Then he would close accounts. Yeah, who was I telling was I telling you was AJ
About he would fucking go into a bank put 2000 and
Leave it there for six months and take a $2,000 bank loan on it
A book loan on it on the 2000 so he would take 2000
And then in those days the computer systems weren't fast enough
So woodland hills and studio city so he would walk into studio city bank of america 259 and close the account
And get the 2000 back get the 2000 back and then shoot up the woodland hills by five and close the account
Because the computers wouldn't move fast enough
And then you do that was that process it they caught immediately, you know, they didn't catch you
But now you can't do that. You know over the year, you know, this I had to do a background check two months ago for a passport
This shit on there. That's not even mine
Really? Oh, there's cocaine arrest on there. We got arrested for cocaine
But how many hose ad's is on there? Yeah
fun
So there's probably a lot of shit is on there
But let me tell you say that because my first american express card or no, I I got a new one
You know the day comes up. I got a new one probably five years ago
And you get the I don't I looked at the number of whatever and all of a sudden
I'm using it the guy's like, man
It's this it's crazy. How old this card thinks you are and you know on this on american express says member since yeah
Mines had members since 88
And my dad has the exact same name as I and he had he was a member since 88
So the card they sent me was my card
But they must they had his name and they had members since 88
So now i'm you know, i'm a fucking
I'm a child trying to you know get it
So I I said to them I go you guys this is my card, right?
This shit's not going to my dad's bill. He's like, no, no, no, we fucked up. We just you know
We looked the name and that was it. I was like, oh shit, but yeah, I can imagine that
Jose Diaz has many many different
You know
Citations against him, but then the shit like I did a ton of shit
from 81
to 85
None of that is on there
That's good like I don't start coming up in the computer like I had an arrest in bergen county
And that's not up there
But there was a couple of arrested with those arrested if you don't get in trouble for six months
It's clean off your record. I don't like six of those
But there was a couple other ones that you know, I know they should be on there
There's no way on there. How close are you to getting it all taken care of?
Not close at all
I still got the warrant in washington state
But it's a non whatever warrant and they're gonna come get me and I'm not gonna surrender. So we're on a stalemate. Yeah, they just want money
They just want me to pay a fine. That's it. That's done. I think the Idaho warrant is null and void
I think Idaho finally gave up
I was like we're done chasing Joey Diaz. We're done. It was a different time. Yeah, it was a different uh
You know something weird happened, I don't know if you guys read the paper. It's really fucked with me the last couple days
And I'm gonna talk about them. We'll get the fuck out of here. I know you got things to do with people to see
Just think about auntie board Dan's girlfriend. What about her? I haven't heard about this
This is beautiful. She's one of the earlier accusers of r.v. Weinstein
But it just got released that she's getting sued
She's already she she settled she settled
For raping a 17 year old kid on a set woman. What?
Her she did. Yeah
And you know, I told my wife I go we look what people don't really understand across the country is
that hollywood
Let's start from scratch
Wow, this what's that expression they say about women
There's no wrath
Angry woman. I'll have no fury like a scorn woman or scorn woman. Let me tell you something
There's a lot of men in hollywood that are bitter
But think how many women there are
to the fucking bitter
You know, there's a bunch of women that suck dick and got success
But there's a lot of them that suck dick and just got plain lied to
You know, I just bumped into a comic from 20 years ago
About two months ago and it was great to see her and the whole thing
But she sucked her way out of this town
Yeah, you know, like you ever see somebody and your your friends are doing you never had nothing to do with her
But you just see her now and you're like you sucked your way
out of this town
you know
I went to prison. I did something wrong. Stephen is easy. I got locked up and I paid my due to society
And I got judged, you know, I had to get judged and all this shit, but at the same time I don't
I have daughters and I have a wife and I have friends. I have daughters and I understand the whole me too project
But you really have to think of the whole thing and if there's smoke, there's fire
You know
Before you fucking throw a rock you better make sure you don't live in a glass fucking house
I mean
Okay, that's number one the most painful interview I've seen so far is matt lauer when he's interviewing bill oriley
Just literally like, you know, you're the head of the network. You're the face of the network
You don't think these accusers have
And then for him to be a month later
It's like, how do you do that interview?
It's how do you do that interview knowing that you you know, it's gotta come down the other way
We live a weird fucking time
We live in a weird. This is a weird
So this woman did a made a payout already for this
To the kid. Yeah
And she's one of the early accusers was it it was it uh, um
Like he was like was he like drugged or something like that or was he just like I was just 17
He was 17 in 2013
Now he's telling me to smack the fuck out of him. Yeah, he's got to be something
Some old god's kid because you know, what's he doing there? Jento sucked his dick off
Like she you could tell she got the twos and she's nasty and you know the age of consent in california is 18
So maybe that's why that's why really
But yeah, he uh, yeah
right after she
Uh, they did a movie together or something. Yeah after but he went after her right after
She'd start talking with her Harvey Weinstein. Oh wow, okay
Yeah, you got to make sure your house is clean before you start pointing fingers
I try you got to check your fucking closet from time to time and rather those bones
I always do and just look and listen man. That's why body. I don't get down when people
You know, they talk shit about the fucked up shit you do or I've done or whatever. It's like fucking
I don't give a fucking you like you you have to know like your house is all fucking cleaned up. You've done all your homework
You're perfect
You know the thing that gets me the most about this town is I was a criminal
I fucking used a gun if you're gonna do something these guys don't use guns
They're like fucking little wormy fucking dudes, you know and my point before was being is
I've done a lot of fucked up shit. We were at the store when
I seen a lot of bad shit at the store
I seen women get put through a lot of shit at the store. Absolutely. I seen women walk into situations at the store
I saw a lot of bad
Crazy stuff at the store, you know, I I raised my hand on some nights. There was some crazy shit that went on there
but
uh
I saw women get eaten up in this town
And I you know, you try to pull them aside. You like them as a comic and you're like, hey man, don't do that
Fuck you. You know what you're talking about and then they gone
I saw women that try I know a lot of female comics that used that power
But at the end comedy always wins
At the end if you can't be fun here
Those titties and that pussy and that all that shit goes away and I saw it. I saw I saw women do it
You know, I saw
Women go through it. You know, there was a girl at the store when I first got to the store
She would suck your dick for a spot
in the belly room
Tell you
Yeah, tell you. Yeah, I'll suck your dick for a spot the belly of me like are you fucking crazy? I'll get young things
Yeah, hold on one second. Don't go nowhere
I'm gonna talk to this chick. You know real quick. You know, I mean it was that crazy at the store
Yeah, so when you hear when all this shit went on I looked at it from you know
And I
Harvey Weinstein's a piece of shit in my book, you know, but we all know he was doing that everybody know everybody was in on it
They were all in on it. The agents knew it was like a joke
How do we fuck around?
When we're together when you know, what's sitting there is meant three guys, you know when
When three guys are sitting together by themselves
What do you think we're talking about fucking?
Cars. Yeah, when three animals are sitting together. They're talking about their conquests
That's what they do. They talk about their conquest three classless fucking guys
Which there's a lot more classless guys in LA than classy guys
Bro, I have people that suck my dick. I've never said nothing
I've never said nothing
I know people that say don't listen. I give them the suck your dick
But don't say nobody said and you're like, this is the best blow job in the world
If you say something that everybody don't want one. Yeah, you don't say don't say none. You know what? I won't say nothing
You're absolutely right. I know how to keep my match up. But there's guys that have to
Tell about that conquest. You tell you you didn't mean to tell me Harvey Weinstein
Never told guys come in for a second. Fuck them roses. Whatever her name is sucks a tremendous pipe or whatever
They they chit chat. There's plenty people. So they all knew they all knew
You know Harvey goes to a party. He sees the hot 20 year old
Who's her agent? Come in for a second. Send her into my office tomorrow. He knows that agent knows exactly
What's going down?
You know, not one agent was mentioned that has sent all these women. I would attack the agents
I would make the agents liable go. Hey, man, you sent me to that fucking office and fucking Godzilla stuck it up my ass
You know, it's a truth. We just ain't a joke. I used to yell in my agent if they sent me to the wrong building
I used to call my I'm like, can you guys get your shit together?
And you know, I'm like, but then there's two sides of that story where it is easy
There's a lot of people who know what they're walking into
This town is not there's a lot of people who don't want to do the work in this fucking town
They don't want to do the fucking work
And I guarantee there's women that come out here going I'll suck a dick
You tell me that that's not true. That's the truth. No, I'm saying it is
I also think that some people think it's their only way that that you know, I'm not that good
And this is the only way I'm gonna be able to go. No, you're right. And we saw it. We saw it. I saw it at the store. Yeah
I remember one night coming back from the store with Leah and just telling stories that I got to the point where my body was shaking
We were outside. It was warm weather. I just told them calm me, you know, just
Shit that I had forgotten about that your mind gets exercised as you're talking
And you remember different sexual and crazy situations and
You know, and I'll tell you what like I've never really
Been like a fucking and and I wanted to tell this story on the podcast
When I was 13, I went to Cuban dudes and there were animals
You know, Cuban dudes are animals. Yeah, the white dudes on how it were a little bit more
Classy, but the Cuban dudes like yeah, I wouldn't make I wouldn't grab a titties and shit
So I didn't really fucking know
You know, I didn't have a father give me that guidance
So when I was at this girl's house, I knew
I grew up with we all grew up with this girl
We all go to a house and we're at a house and
We're watching like Saturday Night Live and there was this girl another girl that came over
That went to a Catholic school. We grew up with her
But I hadn't seen her in the world and I was like
Holy shit, she looked good. Oh my god. And we had I had no one else. It's like maybe the third day I moved to North Bergen
I became friends with her and her brother
And the brother I think joined the army and got shot one night
He came back home. I'll leave and got shot on the drug deal or something like that
But they lived in our neighborhood, but she went to a Catholic school
And I was a little fucking savage at the time. I didn't know nothing about nothing
I did not have a control like I didn't know anything and she didn't have a bra
And she had like a a shirt on yeah and the tit was popping out
And I was like I couldn't take it. What are you gonna do? I couldn't fucking take it. Would you deal?
And I just told I said can we meet downstairs? She's like, yeah, but she didn't know she thought we're gonna meet the smoker joint
And we went downstairs and I started smoking a joint with her and I told I said, you know
I started giving her the typical lie shit. I've always had a crush on you
We started making out and I remember I went for a tit like the tit was out
I like grabbed the tit, you know, and she let me suck it for a couple minutes and then afterwards she started crying
Like she was 13 though. I was 13. Yeah
She put a tip back in the shoes. I can't believe that. You know, I let you do this. I feel terrible
And she started crying on that first. I'm like, what are you doing? I got mad for about two minutes
But for some reason I saw the little girl in her
And that's when I discovered sexual harassment
That's my sexual harassment story. Mm-hmm
Like just seeing her cry
Because she had given me her tit the first time this is the first time she ever
Like she just went out to experiment. She ran into a wolf. Yeah
Yeah, like you know what I'm saying? She went out to experiment and you saw the
You still had enough innocence. I think to see the sense in her and say yeah
This girl is not like rejecting me. She's just scared right now
And she's not like saying like it's you're an asshole or foot
But it's more like just like I'm in this uncomfortable situation that I you know, didn't know I was getting myself into
I didn't know. Yeah, I didn't know was that's a great. I mean, well, look
That's a great lesson to get especially and be able to lock into it at 13
She was my friend. You got to remember. Yeah, she wasn't a girl at a bar. So you weren't trying to hurt her
Yeah, you knew you wanted to have like a cool relationship. I thought she was sending me a message every time she bent over
And she even had like funnel tits like the tits weren't big developed yet. They would just like fall forward like she was beautiful
She was a beautiful girl. She had grown up to be a beautiful fucking girl. You know, like she was 13 I was 13
But that was the first time
I saw a girl get upset like that and it bothered me and I knew like right there. I knew that
That's it like she didn't say no
She just pulled away because she was a catholic fucking girl
And she's like my brother's gonna find out, you know, my father like she was just ashamed
She went on to date some fucking tow truck, dude
Like you know what he is later who had a filthy dick and shit. Fuck her
But yeah, all the story was I learned something you learn. That's great. I really did learn something from her
That was weird
And I like when I dated that girl in New York in the seventh grade like we used to just dry hump
Oh, I try on one time. I sucked her titties and that's it. That made me get left back
Like that's how weak I was at that age like that. I got left back
From her just dry humping me like I didn't I didn't she told me I want to wait and I would just take it
Yeah, you know, I would take what you can get
I was just happy that people were dry hump with me
Fuck dude
That dog everybody keeps telling me you want to start this gambling podcast. Oh, yeah
I'm starting. I'm gonna do a dry run the end of the week. Just practicing. Yeah, here's the deal. Here's why it's not just gambling on
To gamble it's gambling
Because now that it's legal everywhere
It's sort of the like the taboo. So tell me that it's legal. What is it?
So now you can go into it used to just be vegas. You can get a bit better sports book. That's what you when you want to gamble on
The emmy's or the hot dog eating contest or a fucking baseball game
You can't just go to the otb. You got to go to let you used to have to go just to vegas
They had they were the only one with a sports book
Then jerseys had the big lawsuit and now they won supreme court because they the the whole thing was you can't have a sports book
And a professional sports team. So that's why atlantic city couldn't have a sports book for all those years
So now
Now that anyone can have a sports book they're everywhere
So you can literally go down to your local sports book and gamble on anything or you can do it online
That's another option. So my thing is this it's not just going to be football. It's not just going to be sports
Not just be baseball. It's going to be the week of the emmy's. I'm going to have someone come on
We're going to talk about the categories. We're going to see the odds and we're going to gamble and bet on that
We'll talk about that for the week. We're going to have all these different bets building up
So that we're going to have payoffs and have to like, you know, have either it's not going to be monetary bets
But like shame bets and things like that. I'm going to bet, you know
Baseball yankies red socks say they got a world series game coming up. Whatever. We'll do something like that
So it's going to be all arenas politics sports
Anything so it's not
Just gambling to gamble on money
But I do want to have some experts on because like baseball. I don't know how to bet baseball is a thousand different ways
So I want to have one someone to talk about that
You know what I'm saying to explain to people how to bet baseball. Yeah, how to bet baseball how to bet, you know
What's the how to bet golf when you play golf is all these different games you can play wolf
Last man in all these different things you can do so have someone on to talk about the different games you can play like that
What was the last what was the first thing you ever gambled on?
For me blackjack
For me it was professionally sheets
That's the first gamble. What do you mean like football sheets people give you
Oh, like the all of it. Yeah, they feel pick the teams had to pick four for four for 10 bucks for a dollar five for five
They do like 13. That's the first time I learned and then you had to pick college besides like card games like at the house
Like my grandfathers and uncles would play card games and stuff. I didn't like losing
I don't like paying
On thursday, so that's what got me. Thank god. Like I'm in a decision
If I'm gonna pay a bookie might as well snort coke
Yeah, it's my decision early. Yeah
In 83 I was like wait a second. I can't gamble and snort coke
But I'll tell you what I will do. I won't gamble and snort coke at least I'll get something out of it
I didn't like paying a bookie every fucking week
I always thought about doing
A sports betting podcast and I have a friend a dear friend that that's his expertise
Oh, really getting me on cool. Oh, that's his expertise. I mean they did a segment on them on hbl
On real sports 97. That's why I told Justin our agent. Oh, yeah, I go. I should put but Danny lives in Hoboken
Well, we can skype he does his own thing. Oh, he does. Yeah, he's tight with the ref
Oh, okay
The ref did our show early on. Okay, and then he's tight with this other guy that has a sports betting thing out of philly johnny
I follow him on twitter. Good guy. Really good guy
But I'm in with all those guys. I just for years, you know
Donagy for the ref. Yeah, okay Donagy, you know those guys
For years people add, you know, because I do know but I don't know
I don't know nobody knows nobody knows. That's why nobody knows
That's what I was gonna do. I have like people were like, oh, you should do a fantasy football podcast or whatever
And I'm like it the market sort of saturated with that
But also like I used to go on those fantasy football expert podcasts and I used to sit down like nobody the ball shaped
Fucking crazy. It bounces weird. Nobody knows the ball bounces this way the ball bounces that way. You're right. You're right
Who's who's an expert? There's no fucking expert. There's no one knows
I mean, there are dudes that do their homework
There are dudes that know who kick well in the fucking weather and which way this is going on
But nobody really knows now though now because of the whole gambling thing
The nfl one of the leagues is the first one to sign you can bet the bet at the fucking stadium
That game probably the Raiders
Yeah, so you can now have you can bet at the game on that fucking game that you're at right there
So now they have like nfl guys and and and you know, they have gambling guys in these fucking locker rooms
I'm just saying before and along
There's a reason why all these spreads and all these numbers are so fucking close every single time. They know, yeah every single fucking time
These guys know
So
Yeah, those guys are experts the guys that could call the lines and stuff like that
But as far as like fantasy football and all that bullshit, that's not really but the guys that really make the lines
It's like seven or eight dudes that know exactly what the fuck is going on
And they trick you but I mean if you're if you're a if you're a casino
Think about you got to find someone
Ever that's going to lay the odds for your casino to make sure you don't fucking lose money
It's I mean, there's probably seven guys in the world. Yeah, there's seven
No, but there's every can do that a couple guys they get they see it coming
They fucking trick you they're geniuses. Well, that's the line. That's that's a genius. But remember a wise man once told me
I'd sleep sir
Was a starting quarterback and he lost
Pete Rose was playing the game. Yeah, and he was a loser and so was Michael Jordan
Was back the game and he was losing
What makes you think?
You could pick a fucking game once I heard that I was like
You got me that I think it's you got to have separation. Those guys have too much skin in the game
Jordan's too emotional. He doesn't want to lose. He doesn't I think the seven guys that know how to do it
They don't give a fuck. It's a math
It's a it's either a gut feeling that they just believe their gut
And if they're wrong that was a fluke thing or that's some sort of math problem that they go
This is what the answer is. I don't give a fuck. Listen. I've been on the receiving side of the hook for years
The hook means, you know, the line says seven
When you call your local bookie
It's a seven and a half because more people bend the nicks than the other fucking so they move it over
Detroit pistons. So they move all this shit. Like I know all about that local stuff
I used to do it myself. I used to have my coke dealer. This is the Jenner gambler
I had three coke dealers, but one of my coke dealers is the Jenner gambler. So I'd set him up during football season
I call him on Fridays and start telling him what to pick
And then I call him Sunday and go, I'm really liking this game. I knew it was gonna lose
Oh god
And then he would call me Sunday and go, can you get a better now and sit on it?
And he would pay me with cocaine that night. I gotta go pick up the money tonight and just take coke from me
God damn it. How do you do it? I'd set him up on Thursday
With what the Beck?
But I knew they were losers and every week I was right. He bet against me or whatever. Oh my god bets
I just knew it. That's how I got free coke on Sundays when I hosted the store on Sunday nights. That's how I got free coke
That was my Sunday night hook to set him up and shit
And I would even call him and go he you got a bookie. He would call me you got a book. Yeah
Let me call you right back
I'd set him up wait five minutes. I got like one guy. He said seven and a half
But you gotta bet a hundred. I would always keep him low and shit like he would always grab about 500
No, no this guy first time a hundred dollars
Just in case you long cut just in case. Yeah. Yeah, but he was the kiss of debt. He couldn't pick the fuck up the mush
I see, you know, I just saw so many guys that now
If I like something overwhelming and I'm in Vegas, I'll bet it. Mm-hmm
But if not, I don't I don't give a fuck. I want to have someone to talk about podcasts
Well, it's funny because bet on pot. Who's gonna have the most hits this week on their podcast
Whatever it is like you can have a topic about any it's like doesn't have to be
Sports at all. That's why I like it. It's just like people have opinions and they feel like they're like no fuck you
I know what I'm talking about. All right. Let's bet on it. You're wrong. You wear a bikini on the podcast next week
I'm wrong. I'll grow fucking mustache for a month. Whatever you want to pull like the triply thing spin my mouth
Yes, something. I mean that maybe not get that filthy, but yeah, sort of like
They're fucking crazy with it with those guys. Yeah, those is he is. Well, you know, Ari and I got a long-standing one
It's it's it's almost a year old now
When the whole Louis thing happened. I told Ari
That I'm like, that's it. It's gonna be a while before we see him again. This is october of 17
Last year and he goes, uh, he'll be on stage by the end of the year. I go, are you out of your fucking mind?
You think he's gonna go on stage? I go, what comedy club is putting him on stage?
I go, forget it if you want. I understand. I I would have no problem with him going on stage
But what if the waitresses walk out? What if there's a protest out in front of the fucking thing?
This is like right when it happened. No, I go, I honestly should be allowed to no fine
I go, he'll be on stage. We'll bet on what he's gonna be on stage. So it ends up being by the end of this year
If he doesn't step on stage, we did the bag of bets on the on the podcast
So we reach in and the thing we pulled out was we
The loser has to act in the three-page gay porno that the winner writes
And there could be no no fucking but it's gonna be pretty, you know
Terrible and neil brennan's gonna direct it and then we're gonna put it up on
So you've got four months for him not to get on stage four months joey. He's been going to the comedy cell
No, no, he's been going but he has not gotten on stage
He has he has to stay not get on stage
December 31st 2018
And then that's gonna be terrible. I already have three different ideas for the the three-page arc
I want already go through on the porno, but none of you nervous. He's gonna get on stage
What are you nervous that he's gonna get on stage? Well, I see, you know, you see articles like like adam ebay sends me an article like
Because he's my ears on the ground. I go if becky starts telling you like
Start clearing I go you got to let me know first because I got to start preparing myself mentally, but
So I I have ears on the ground, but so does arry. No one's more embedded in the new york comedy scene than arry
So he'll know first but as far as la is concerned
And then I have like people talking to me like
Fitzsimmons is like, well, I think he's gonna start in australia. There's a count of I go
Yeah, stage, but he's like I think over there. He'll start there because it's a little bit
Looser, you know his reputation perhaps over there. It might be a little bit better. So there's a whole like where's it gonna start?
So let me ask you a question. Yeah, how would you have handled the loy thing?
I think guess what I would have gotten on stage the next night. Well, I would have gotten on stage the next night
All I can say is I was not in the same situation. I was in something somewhat. I took me a month
I'll tell you something
But I mean the first time you get on the fucking stage and face the horse
Is when you're done. Yeah, you have to face the horse now
My whole beef with this whole me too thing this whole thing that how we'll wrap this up is
When I went to court, I got accused. I got evidence pointed against me and the evidence went against me
in today's world you could just
Say something and we're done and I don't like that
I do not like that power that that see the first time somebody says something
I'm got I got a blog up. I got a thousand things coming up. I wouldn't just hide
I would say yeah, this is what I did. But it was also 10 years ago. Does it fucking really matter now?
If you don't think I changed in the last 10 years, then you don't know then you didn't change
We've all fucking changed the last 20 10 years you changed
Of course
So for you to hold somebody accountable like that to end this career. It's not fair. It's not fair to a man
Especially after this fucking arhento thing
This is what I'm talking about a couple months ago. They accused the nerdest you've been around the nerdest
Yeah, does he look like he's a fucking animal to you? No, and I know that girl. I know her well
I knew despite a man too with that girl. Oh really? Yeah, she was on the podcast
I've had her on the vinyl when she was 14 years old and I when I read that thing. I didn't read that
You know why because hell has no scorn
Like an angry fucking woman. Okay, and there's a lot of people that walk around mad in this fucking town
there's a lot of people who are happy because they
Depended on their talent
I had a big problem when they only they depended on their talent. Yep
If you depend on your talent, then you don't have to do those creepy things
I've done a thousand creepy things in my fucking time
But let me tell you something when it comes to stand-up comedy the reason why rogan talks to me is because
I don't fuck around
This is what we do. This is there's no shortcuts
There's no well. He said this there's never been that in my world
I know that the answer is getting on the stage and working and writing. That's it
But anything else is background music. Well, if you go there and hang out there if you go there
If you make out with this broad, I never believed that I never believed that I never bought none of those stories
And that's the fucking problem
That a lot of people come here and mistake that shit
For work and then guess what you come and go. Yeah
You come and go and you have to put yourself through the aggravation to do what
Sleep with some guys suck some bad balls
I know I look at my balls at night and I go can you imagine making some 25 year old girl
Suck these rotten fucking nuts to get the moon. No like after I read about harvey like how look at my dick
It looks like a fucking science project
Like you look at my dick. It's got scars and holes in it from
Shit, I used to put drugs in my dick that come back clean and shit and drain on my dick
It looks like oh my god. I got rashes from fucking
Jiu-jitsu and shit down there
Can you imagine putting your nut in somebody's mouth and you acting in a movie and like I'll ask them walking around and you got
You know, I know and all those people who suck the dick. They're not around anymore. I guarantee it. They're not around
Yeah, they're not around. It's it's such a
Talent is talent man, and it stands on its own
It really does. Yeah, and all the fucking short cutters. They're gone
All the short cutters are gone
I tell you all the time. I've seen people come and go
I remember going to diners with these people and having a three-hour earbeat
On their plans on how they were going to be comedies
comics
And they just fall apart and none of them were to be funny. It was always like I'll talk to this person
Yeah, yeah, I'll talk to this person. I'm gonna do this. I'm gonna read this book. I'm gonna go to this club
I'm gonna go to this premiere. Listen funny is funny. You got to work on it. Mm-hmm with that
