Oh geez a fucking podcasting How are you? Yeah, it's doing okay. You know, it's been a rough couple weeks, but it's uh, I'm doing fine What the fuck did you eat in England? Oh that gave you poisoning? I want to know this shit right now I think it's the I think it was the oysters in Ireland. Don't get oysters in Ireland. Don't get I don't think I'm going to get out. I love oysters

You do and I don't like them Rogan got me on because every time we used to always you'd always get oysters I was always scared of them, but then I grew to love them and and I love like all the things that you get from oysters I don't like an island or on the water like what is it? Yeah, it should be fine But but but I think the place we we got the oysters that was like a tourist trap It's like getting oysters at Hollywood bull Hollywood in Highland, you know, it's some kind of a pub You know, like you don't you don't go there to get oysters, but uh, yeah, it was bad though That was the worst food poisoning ever and we all got it So how long do the last?

24 hours me Tony Hinchcliffe, Jeremiah Watkins Joel I'm in is the art the Mexican drummer that we have him kill Tony didn't get it because he's Mexican We think and then he had a stronger stronger stomach Used to lizard meat and toenails. Yeah Fucking eyeballs. Oh my god You only got cramps, but it we then the morning after we ate Or we had to go to Manchester We had to go to the airport like 7 a.m. Or whatever it was and we all go to the lobby and I look at Tony and I look at Jeremiah

I'm like, dude, I've been puking all night both ends shitting puking He's like, I can't even believe that I packed my suitcases to get out and Tony looks at me and goes I just went from the bathroom like same shit Jeremiah's like I feel really really bad And then we get into the cab and we're driving to the airport and then Tony's like stop stop stop We're in the middle of this traffic jam highway and Tony runs out and pukes and then and then like five minutes later I'm opening the door. I'm like stop and I'm and I'm like puking out the side of it We're at the airport puking and shitting all three of us going crazy. I mean it was I think I should have been in the hospital Like that bad of food poisoning like uncontrollable like one second

You're just puking and shitting you can't control anything. You said you were gonna run up to a cop at the airport. Yeah. Yeah, I was After I finally checked my bag in and whatever I was like we had to get to the gate We haven't gone through like that like the security or anything like I'm like this is gonna be the I'm gonna die And at this airport I see a cop and I'm just sweat and I'm about to pass out like I thought I was gonna faint I see a cop and I'm like about to go. Hey, you know help me take me to the hospital But I couldn't I didn't have enough energy and I was too scared. I just kept on walking and man that airport

Situation was like an hour of just like I thought I thought that was that's where I got a plane with Well, Tony gave me a bag like a ziploc bag and he goes here, you know just in case and I'm like alright I put in my pocket and we we in my opinion I don't think I think all of us should have went to the hospital But we were just so like, you know, we have a show tonight in Manchester We have to get on this plane and so I'm on the plane I'm just like trying not to you can do anything suddenly in the middle of flight. I pull up that ziploc bag I fill it to the rim. No, and and and luckily I had eight. I was trying to drink

Gatorades and types types stuff just so I had electrolytes and stuff. So when I puked it just smelled like strawberries So I don't think anyone was like, oh, he's puking. It was more like what's going on over here So I was like cowered in the corner like puking and then I just zipped it up put it in my in my coat Because I didn't want anyone to know it luckily was only an hour flight or something like that like it go in the Vegas and When we landed I had this bag of puke and I had to like go out and like find a trash can There was no trash cans anywhere. So I had to hide my little bag of puke at the at the airport and like underneath these carts But then we had a show that night all of us like we're dead like we were sleeping Two minutes before we're supposed to be on the stage of this theater

We're all in the back laying on the floor of this dirty floor in this green room and we did the show and we're all just about to die and Halfway through the show Tony finally goes. Yeah, just so you know, we're all about to die right now Like like we just got over food poisoning Luckily 12 hours later. We were in London and everything was fine But man having food poisoning a while traveling be in a different country See it was one of the worst that is my biggest fear. It was the worst biggest fear is getting sick on the road

Mm-hmm. I had a You know, I got problems sleeping but because the sleep app in machine. I can't do the heavy-duty sedation pills nothing So I went somewhere It was when we were doing a podcast at 6 o'clock in the morning My sleeping was all over the place We were getting up at five two days a week and Thursday. I would fly out at five and Then Friday you have radio So it was like you your sleep patterns just fucked and I remember I did zanies in Chicago and you have to do

downtown Thursday and Then Friday and Saturday you go to the club on the outside of Chicago close to Iraq rose month rose month and Dad Friday, I was fine And that night at the 7-Eleven when I went to get rolling papers. I bought Tom R. P. M's They popped Whatever it says one or two when they fucking went to bed and I got up in the middle of night and I had swam At the hotel the day before what made me swim with no earplugs on So the year the water got stuck in my fucking right ear and I'll never forget getting up and

Just falling straight down And going thank God. There wasn't a table or a desk thank God I fell and like I think I live on my suitcase broke the fall And I could have a vertigo Wow and that Like the two scariest times I had in DC one time I was doing that testosterone all those guys Joe and those guys like you get an older do the testosterone that was doing testosterone Fucking I got on the plane and had a headache, but it wasn't just a regular headache. It was my neck

Goddamn this is one of those real headaches. I got the DC like took blood pressure medication and Still I had that headache and I fucking did the show went to This will happen that Monday I went for a blood test And I had DC that weekend And that Friday I woke up with a headache and a doctor called that had a little message Like oh, what the fuck is he calling me and I call him back. Oh, what's up? He goes? Where are you? I don't mean DC he goes go to a hospital

They're gonna take blood out of you and he for them to take as much blood out of you as they can Because you're developing more red blood cells than white ones that testosterone backfired on me something that happened So I had to go to the fucking hospital. I Never told no mother. I fainted like Six times. Yeah, I remember that at all. I got back to the hotel room. I got a cab back. I Drank a can of coke couple cans of coke and I got back to the Hotel about 615 the first show was at eight There's the first time and I have to cancel and I go hold on one second

Let me get a can of coke if the coke don't do it Nothing will and that was the first time I had drank coke. I'm like three years. It was horrible It was too fucking sweet. I drank the whole can of coke. I Was back to normal. I did the two shows. There's a commercial for coke right there guys. Yeah When you go get a blood test, what do they give you don't they give you a coke and like a Gatorade or a cookie Yeah, cookie. I used to give plasma. I had I was so poor that I would get plasma once or twice a week or something like that And I like you hate needles I don't have any veins so they're always trying to have to like poke it a million times to find a vein

But I would give plasma and they would give us a check for like $45 or 80 bucks or something like that and they would give it so I could buy marijuana and Some money for beers that night and I would do that once or twice a week man. I don't miss those days How low would it take? Like an hour. I think because they when you get plasma what it does is it takes out your blood You would hate this the most It takes out your blood and it takes the plasma from the blood and it's like this machine's behind you That's just spinning all your blood and then it puts the blood back in so it's like it

It's it's recent takes the plasma out of your blood, but you get your blood back type shit It's it was not worth it and that's how broke I was though Like I was doing shit like that when I was in college But I don't know what it's gonna take over like today if you look I got a little cut over here Mm-hmm. I want to shower when I didn't use shaving cream. I just use like fucking fungus soap That's what I didn't want to use this shaving cream today. So I use like funger that that body Whatever one you go to jujitsu. Yeah. Yeah, I use that and I shaved and I come out of the fucking shower Just today one o'clock and I fucking went to wipe my face. It was bleeding and I was in front of the

Mirror and I had actually sit down Had a sit down. Yeah, just the side of it just a little bit of blood just sit on just to get and I knew I was I Don't even trust it because I never know what it's gonna hit What about the time I on the Southwest and there was turbulence and I was in the bathroom and I actually There was turbulence and I was pissing But the plane made me go forward So I banged my head on the thing. No, but I'm not at all guys

It wasn't a big deal at all. But as I was washing my hands I go, what if the plane does it now And I banged my head in that mirror. I'm gonna start bleeding. I fainted just Like I barely made it back to the fucking Southwest flight seat in the middle like I had a hold on just the idea That was the time I was with Gabriel nose guys And I take my shirt off and my big tits were hanging and I'm sweating on the plane It was when Southwest has facing Seats, I think I took an edible too. That was when those Tongue things are so with anxiety you listen yourself through it. Jesus Christ. What do you want to do?

Yeah, that's when those things those Listerine strips or like a hundred milligram. We didn't I never tried those. They were stuck together You put them in your wallet and they would get stuck together So you didn't know whether you were eating two of them or 18 of them And I put one in one morning on a flight and it just took off and that's what got it ignited was me Thinking about hitting the glass not even hitting it. There was no blood involved just a thought guys Like I said, I gotta go your blood on Monday, and it's been eating away at me Sunday. I'll be a mess Sunday, I'll be a mess. That's why I'm going to see Whitney on Sunday. She's running her hour. How cool for Netflix

I'm gonna go to flappers and watch because I don't even want to think about it That means I got to get up like at seven or seven thirty take a shower. We're not eat. I Don't think you could even drink coffee. You could drink black coffee With your blood pressure medication. I got a drive down there an empty stomach to give blood. That's torture Give him blood on the full stomach. That's one thing. I could do that with my eyes closed It's giving blood on an empty stomach eat some mushrooms Just challenge yourself I challenge myself enough all right, I don't have to challenge myself at the fucking doctor's office

You have no idea like everything about the doctor bothers me. I like him When I have a doctor, I have to like the doctor and trust him the first couple times. I'm a little standoffish I'm in love with a sleep apnea. I'm like listen. I ain't gonna fuck with you people if there's a needle involved I don't even talk to you people like no There's no needles involved. That's the only reason why I wouldn't got my sleep apnea treated at that time. I was really bad Now I learned how to breathe. I Bring the iPad. I don't get too high like before so there's no misunderstandings. I don't get high at all that morning I don't get high at all

Well, speaking of like Canceling things like what would make you guys cancel a show because I I could feel this cold coming on When I supposed to leave on Friday, I was like, I can't cancel. I'm not gonna can't like if you guys ever have to cancel a show No, I've always worked through it even with food poisoning even with flues. I've done it It sucks. You should you should just start like, you know taking all the vitamin C and water and Sleeping for the next three days. Well with me. It was always considering the situation. I Always considered the situation like I think I got sick one new year's and had a cancel on job on the feature act You know, you're the feature act. That's a complete different thing, you know, when you're sick, you could call me and go

I don't feel good tonight. And we get a feature act anywhere in 20 minutes, you know, the MCO stretch or something like that for me now If I'm coughing and Whatever, I'm gonna give them a bad show. I'll cancel But anything else I got to move forward a little detail under the temperature Emotions, you know, think about Brody dying on a Friday every comic in America that we know how to perform that Friday night Somehow you have to learn how to overcome that stuff like when something bad like that happens you have to rush to the stage To you know, so it doesn't overpower you and that's what I had to do when Brody at that Friday. I mean every

That Friday I started feeling bad for myself for a second. Like what a second Every other comic in America is going up on stage tonight. How do you think they feel sometimes in a fact? I could just imagine you didn't you have like a ice house chronicles that night. Yeah, we had a ice house chronicles There was also a lot of you know, just imagine being an audience member though that Friday going to see a show and all the comics because I talked to a lot of comics like Esther that had to go up and Perform and it was hard for all of them. I can't even imagine what the audience was like. What is going on here? This is a weird night to be at a comedy club But it was hard. I when I went up, I almost lost it a few times

It's been up and down for me ever since though Like I'll be fine for three days and then out of nowhere just my whole day is ruined Well, I spoke about grief on the podcast Sunday and how people grieve. We all grieve differently. I'll tell you what It didn't bother me the first week. It didn't bother me the second week. It bothered me last week Last week I had a little I had a couple different things going on in my life that I was hot about And when I searched to see what the problem of my thing like both people cool with me now and I think it was because of the Brody situation. I didn't know how to express myself so I

Called it out on two different situations that were going on in my business aspect I got into a little misunderstanding And I think it was to do with Brody like it comes for me. It comes out in different ways You know, that's why I said there's an anger issue involved With grieving when there's a suicide involved Because at one point you do get mad at that person somewhere along the line It could be on the six months to the nine month a year later or it could be two years later You know, even my mother who didn't commit suicide. I felt a little bit

Mad at her for like a year in it. It's like a year. I was like fuck that bitch You know, how can she live and not take care of herself to have a heart, you know But then you really just you Empathize that person and then it goes away and then you accept it for this It's weird like I you were talking and I had family members pass away But up until a couple years ago, I didn't have friends pass away. I got the weird thing as an adult having friends Pass away unexpectedly and it's It really takes out of you like it's it's different

You know guys you watch the news everybody watches the news we read yahoo And you look at things in life and you go wow, that's fucked up Thank God that won't happen to me And then one day you go to a concert in Vegas a country Western concert on a Sunday night and you're getting fucking shot at, you know I mean, you have to appreciate all the moments and you always have to be prepared for that situation You know like we live in a world now that we could be at a carnival and somebody starts shooting We could be at a comedy show somebody starts shooting We could be at a rouse and somebody starts shooting the same thing as with death

You know Chris Cornell died hung himself. It bothered us We were fans of Chris Cornell and Soundgarden than the other kid hung himself and it bothered us because we were fans of what's that band? Uh Lincoln Park Lincoln Park, but Brody was our backyard. That's one of us I'm not talking about even like Robin Williams when Robin Williams died. He was a comedy store guy But I saw I saw Robin once or twice in my life. I meant I'm at the start the improv with Rogan Did I feel for it? Yeah, that's what it? That's when it enlightened me and Then Rudy Sargeau came on the podcast when we first started the podcast and he spoke about that with music with entertainment

Artist there's a thin line between talent and mental health There's a very very thin line and if there's a mental health issue and we start aggravating it with the drugs to Take care of it, but what no if we're trying to take care of ourselves With the drugs they give us and then went once you had alcohol and Drugs to the mix God knows where you're gonna end up You know God knows where you're gonna end up, you know, so That's when once Brody did it

Now I'm concerned. I Would I grew up in three of my like good friends committed suicide just growing up in high school and Yeah, so I had I've had this like my whole life people killing it might be my personality, you know, but but But no, no, I so but this was the first time out of all the people the first time where I thought I had kind of a A Like I knew what was a problem where all the other times it just came out of the blue They kill themselves had no like pre like I had no idea what was going to happen this time

It's like, oh, you know Brody suffers with you know Mental issues, so I you know, I got a check on this guy and make sure he's okay And the crazy thing about him is he was okay like recently he seemed like he was okay like normal and and Where in the past every time he was having an issue he would be very Yelly and and angry and and or he would have his sunglasses on and be very, you know sad and and this I saw him A day before he you know passed and he was like, hey Brody. Hey Brian. How are everything seemed normal? That's the thing that really drives me crazy is because like because we all you know We all love him and we would all been there for him and we I didn't feel like we had any kind of warning at all

Just came out of nowhere. That's the part that that really digs into me that that You know, he was suffering and he didn't let us know where he usually lets us know everything about his life It was really different and it four o'clock on Thursday on Monday the day of the We did the podcast Sunday night We spoke about it for the first time on the podcast. I did not want to talk about the first two or three weeks just There was too much out there. I didn't want to drag a dog into the podcast, but now it was time to acknowledge him And you know, like I said Sunday would piss me off the most was his last ten minutes, you know His last ten minutes. That's what got me that

None of us were there for him. We don't know if he went away in the morning But we don't know if he decided to do this at night, you know You and a couple other guys said they saw him the night before and he was fucked So obviously, I don't think he did it that night. I think he woke up to a wall of shit and I Read different things online that have been disturbing some people said he read the comments or a special Yeah, I guess he was the latest thing he was upset is that his special which is on the Amazon and it really captured the why we love Brody his late night spots at the comedy store and it the whole special felt like you were sitting at the comedy store, you know in the main room at 1 a.m. on a Saturday or Friday and

There was a few comments of people that you know, just like hey, you know rented it Oh, I don't know what's going on here, you know, like just typical normal white bread comedy people Saying well, I don't know what's going on. This guy seems like he but that's the crazy thing is is that when you first meet Brody I think we all had the same kind of like whoa, this guy, you know at first it took you Oh, Brody had a learning curve like you had to like get to know him to appreciate him when I first met him I didn't even live here in California. Joe This is like the first time I met you too

Joe and Doug was doing that the man show and Brody was the warm-up guy the audience warm-up guy And I was living in Ohio and I was like, you know what? I want to fly out to LAC what it's like and Joe has the man show so he Joe invited me to be able to watch the man show like in the audience so I flew out with a couple other people when the audience ate a bunch of edibles and and Brody was the audience warm-up guy and Brody was like clap clap Like we were sitting like like third row or first row or something like that

And he was just like hey you right there clap and for three hours He screamed at us like clap. I why are you not clapping blah blah blah doing hit all the stuff that I love him for now But but when you're a Ohio guy and you have no idea what's going on and you're like I was like Scared of him like he like I was like, why is this guy screaming at me? I'm trying to clap as much as I can and That and then I think that I've met you too You like you're on the show that famous thing where you popped out naked and stuff like that But then when I came finally moved to LA The first night I was at the comedy store Joe introduced me to Mitzi and I was like talking to Mitzi

And I remember hearing Brody in the background going yes, and I was like I was like having a flashback like a Vietnam flashback. Oh, there's the guy that screamed at me all the time but then after getting to know Brody now, I love all that shit about him now I look back at him like oh my god. I didn't get it. I'm laughing, but I think people saw his special and Same first reaction they had like why is this guy screaming at everyone? I don't get it one star Amazon so Brody had been looking at all these comments and Focusing on the negativity of him, and I think that's that was bugging him the last couple weeks of his life That's the one thing that I have been hearing

It's uh, it was straight cuz I first saw him I Thought cuz I'd heard about him on podcasts. I thought comedians were teasing him. I Thought they were like kind of making fun of him a little bit behind his back But the more that you met other people I Could you could feel the love people had for Brody? And I don't know I mean you guys knew him better than I did Comments will get to me, but I just know you can't even read them. Do you think you would? He he focused on all the negativity all the time

That was one of his things like even just one word like what what do you say? That's not positive I went into his apartment last night His family had gone through all his stuff and you know and his close friends and stuff were you know just going you know going through his things they're donating a lot of his stuff, but It was my first time actually being in his apartment And it was a very interesting walking around and seeing what Brody looked at every single day and and one thing that was almost adorable was Everywhere you looked there was like positive messages just like like the ones you see at like

You know the Target where it says like stay positive smile, you know, there's just like little things everywhere in his bathroom. It says, you know Have a good day, and you know every single step you just had these positive messages Then you had pictures of him everywhere. There was one picture that was just him He says I'm five and it was just a picture of him And next to his bed He had has this big What's that thing that the Mexicans hit a piñata a big cat piñata right next to his bed on and then he Larry Bird

on his walls and all these little trinkets and baseball toys and and But everywhere you go in his house, there was just little signs that said smile positive energy, you know All the things that he constantly says so It really made me go wow He really not only says that but lives that like he has to tell himself every day to smile positive energy and all that stuff And when he doesn't that's the version I saw when I first met him, you know the screaming and the you know He really had was he still screaming late night? Yeah, yeah, you're still going. Yeah, you're still you're still doing this thing, you know

But it wasn't like it was like his act kind of thing. It wasn't the real screaming Thing like the video I showed you earlier when we first started doing podcasts It was called the Brody Stevens experiment and there was three of them only one's available right now But the other two he asked me to take him down because he was going manic That's the Brody that that when I first met him where he was screaming and everything was bothering him He would hear a dog barking. Why is the dog barking? I can't concentrate in and just yelling and stuff It was really interesting to watch I just found those two episodes and it was really interesting to watch because I could tell

Something was not right with him and that after those episodes is when he checked in what year was that? 2013 11 I think that's when he had the episode. He had Zach producing his yeah Yeah, show on HBO enjoy it. It was called. I think it was enjoy it was it and that that was right before All that happened like literally like maybe a week before it happened where he got Chucked in to the psych ward and and they started filming the show for enjoy it What do you guys think because I think it to me He was just very well known for his audience warm-up. I Don't think he I think it kind of bothered him a little bit. Do you think he enjoyed the audience warm-up? I

Don't like I don't cuz someone I the last show I did with him Someone brought him up as like the best audience one guy I've ever seen he kind of like it Yeah, I don't think he doesn't like the title, but I think he liked doing it. He liked doing it Yeah, yeah, yeah, he was very good. He was amazing. He was very very good I met Brody in Seattle and at first I used to break his balls and call into the Show Public access show he go Diaz. I know it's you To me and then

We did they found all those tapes by the way He had all of them at his apartment which one's all the public access show I told I told him like you got to digitize these you got to put these out There were boxes each one labeled like episode one two three So hopefully we get to see those someday so I You know at the end the ground. It was a ball busters paradise. We're all open micers We all ran in a pack me him Josh Gavin There was a bunch of us that ran six seven deep and we detainer him Josh Wolf Tainer mark Madison

nice guys, you know, but At first I didn't know how to take him and Then I saw the other side of him. I Saw that he was a sweet sweet guy So he asked me for advice. I talked him into going to New York and we kept in touch very lightly He was living in Brooklyn, you know and all this shit and Then one that I'm in the coach and horses fucked up to the gills I'm snorting and I'm there with the stripper and she had her little hooker friend with it

So I said hooker up with Brody showed up Brody had the Volvo and we were so fucked up that he made me drive He showed up at the comedy store and they were back to coach the horses and he made me drive I was coked out of my mind and he had super unknown in the cassette deck And I took it out because I wanted it for the car I mean it was just in the next day. He called me up. Did you take my super unknown? Yeah, fuck yeah, and all this shit. That was the one story I wanted you to say again What was it with in Seattle or something where you kidnapped him in his own car

Oh, and I put him in the back of the car and I told him to shut the fuck up That I could make it to get carbon an hour and a half and he didn't believe I was doing 90 and and he kept saying normal people Don't live like But where I saw like this whole time I just thought he was a kid I loved him like I liked him, you know, and he was entertaining But once we were on the best damn sport show I Would get there the tape in the afternoon and those kids would get in there and it was the best warm-up I had ever seen in my life because it was a warm-up that nobody warms up people like that

Everybody's very clean The warm-up guy from Joe Rogan show news radio Joe Hayes He used to call him captain date rate. Oh my god, because the guy wore a jacket. He was really creepy He grabbed grandmother's hands and shit and then Bill Ma had KP Anderson Kp still around, you know, I just bumped into him KP and then there was another show I used to go to a CBS show and that warm-up was just horrific But once you saw Brody do warm up It was something that like you said people would look at me go

What the fuck is this? You don't want to laugh. Don't You know, then he would tell you something obscure. I'm a model and where was your model Pakistan Pakistan, you know and these people like is he being serious? Like there was so many nights me and then John Cruck would just watch him do warm-up and how Like Brody just and the people would be Petrified Petrified, you're right. I forgot all about that quality yet because he wasn't your traditional high It's like seeing Holtzman lot like Brian Holtzman one of the funniest comedians in the world that no one knows about nobody knows about

And if you see him, you might be like what the same kind of reaction But if you get it, you're seeing some of the best comedy you'll ever see He was there the other night. Yeah, he's so beautiful It really is Brody was the best part of the oddball tour that I went to go see really. Yeah. Oh, yeah Oh, you got to see my oddball. Oh, yeah And he was on the small stage and then for like for like the beginning part when no comedy was going on And I went I went the year it was like Gaffigan Sarah Silverman The Nerdist guy I'm blinking on his name right now. It doesn't matter and

Brody would go up the Brody went up there and my ex and I like he was He'd always would talk about the whole time like the whole the rest of the show is just okay and Brody it Brody killed it the whole time. It was awesome. So he was on the side stage He hosted that but then he I think he warmed up the main stage to if I'm not from remembering correctly Yeah, he was a different type of fucking breed man, and he just kept pounding it listen after he had the episode in whatever I Pulled him aside and I talked to him and said that we are I'm in my chair. I searched him for weapons It's like the busters balls like we make sure you don't have a weapon on these shit and

Listen man Looking at it all over again. That's the last call. I thought I was ever gonna get especially even now even after the show I knew I knew Brody had his Little mental things, but so do a lot of people but I never expected them to do which one never never I think that's what Took people, you know you to call me and said the guy by a car God forbid or he was in a car accident. I get that I never understood this one type thing for Brody Yeah, and like I said the last ten minutes if he knew how everybody felt there Monday night

If he knew how people had been feeling in the last three weeks, you know It's it's just weird. It's just But we move on like I said as comedians listen man. Well, you know, you were saying something before I don't mean to be rude to you nothing like that, but Things are gonna happen in your comedy career There's only be one day that you're in fucking Poughkeepsie, New York about to go up and you're gonna get a call that a loved one is dead And you can't quit you can't quit It's gonna the feelings are over gonna overpower you. I was very fortunate

I was very, you know, it's a bittersweet feeling for me because in 1995 I had the silent war going on with my wife And I would realize that after I would drop the baby off My daughter at that time I Would drive like two blocks down the road and mentally break down I would cry and I'd be angry at myself and and this went on for about two months and Wednesdays I would just go home get Chinese food delivered and I would just sit there. No TV I would just sit there not write jokes. I would just sit there and then wait two hours in order cocaine That was that was what I did on Wednesday nights

But I forced myself. I said I'm not doing this no more for me to become a really really good comic I have to learn how to do comedy upset So I forced myself to do, you know that Wednesday room I was talking about Here that the guy was the Elvis impersonator with the spaghetti or something That was the Wednesday night and there was club 56 on Wednesday night. So I would force myself So yeah, I'm mad that I would I would look up at that guy with the Elvis suit on Singing and I would go I can't believe I'm opening for this kind of Wednesday night But at least I wasn't in my apartment. So what I would do was I would drop her off at seven

I would drive up maybe a mile and I would have a joint in the ashtray and I would smoke the joint I would cry a little bit. I was dropping off my door And I would smoke the joint and then I would force myself to go do kind of First couple times I ate a bag of dick But then after a while I started getting better at him better at him better and I had just worked an Avenue that now cannot affect me again If somebody close something close to me, I'm still Able to do comedy because I've learned

How to shut it off. There was a lot of people who called me that day After four o'clock I stopped taking calls that day Because I knew that what the call was for so I just took the phone Put it on off and put it in a charger and I went to the other room with Kate I had my food in the bedroom But I was outside the living room with Kate eating cheese and show like that room service Because I didn't want to feel bad. I didn't want people to keep fucking reminding me like before eight o'clock And then when I woke up Saturday had more I had called from 206

So there was a newspaper trying to call Because they left a message so I got that Saturday morning I was Seattle some want to know if you have any words for Brodie Stevens We got your number from such-and-such. I was like, I'm not calling you like I don't I'll deal with at the comedy store. So I didn't really when I got back Sunday was the first time That I was fine with it and I called Josh Wolf and I could see that he It was starting to hit him because we had pushed to the side. We said fuck it. Let's do comedy Let's worry about these two shows and we'll worry about Brodie on the way back Sunday

And that's when on the plane right back was where I let it digest. I cried a little more. I went home I called Josh and Then I think I called you we all spoke and That's it, you know, that was basically it I'm sorry this had to happen to a bunch of young guys at the store But once your young comics had a witnesses, but we all did this, you know This happened in our backyard. This is not good So now we have to be a little stronger as comics now. We know that this could happen again

But we can't let it happen again You know Robin Williams and now Brodie Stevens So what can we do to not let this happen again? This is why I said, you know, they don't want texting you got to call three people a week. Just pick three people You know, I if you right now We could take a sheet of paper and each of us could give it to one another I could write three names here, but I could see doing that before Brodie Stevens. Oh, yeah

Hunter names I can name three names off the top of my head right now Just from me being around the store in the comedy game and seeing people at different clubs There's three people. I'm worried about more than I was worried about Brodie Stevens So for this not now we have to make sure this doesn't happen again, right? It's it's hard to Constantly deal with this in the comedy community too. It seems like it's Non-stop because we're such a large family and so tight, you know, and there's so many It seems like comedians are drawn to the depression and sadness and you know, it that's here that

series Piss me off a little bit. What did piss me off it? Enlightened me a little bit, you know the dark side of comedy And it was just a bunch of comics talking about this struggle with yeah, I watch you see it I've had it on maybe last year or something like that And I'd listen to what they had to say and I had a lot of You know concerns My wife goes to bed at 8 30 sometimes nine the baby goes to bed at 8 30

And some nights yeah, you go to a computer room and you put music on and you write jokes So you look at your schedule and you tailor how you're gonna do it, but At the same time That's when that shit could happen Go on YouTube look at one of your videos Some guy calls you a fat fuck your waste of life, whatever I could see all that transpiring into But that's why I don't read the comments. I gave up reading comments four or five years ago on YouTube

And then when you look at just pick any song just pick a great band And pick a song and go to it on YouTube. I was watching so it means the same last night It's got six million views. Well, it's got four hundred eighty dislikes. So four hundred eighty thousand hate it If they hate Led Zeppelin, they're gonna hate us. Yeah, you know, not that's what makes the world go round It's not everybody's gonna love everything you do. I love when people make a comment on you know on Twitter to your Facebook Sometimes you get upset because you're like, I'm trying to provide a service. I'm trying to help people out and you got a fucking Break my balls, but somebody sometimes you gotta look at where that person's coming from. You don't know He's in a basement. He's just fucking looking around for you to get attention

Fuck him. So it's better not even to pay attention to those things. They create doubt and It's done by people if you had a life You wouldn't have time to write a stupid comment if you understand humanity you wouldn't have time to there's a lot of shit I don't like online There's tons of shit. I don't like you don't see me fucking write negative comments I just switch and just click the channel or don't watch it. That's it. But to put somebody down for somebody trying Go fuck yourself. Yeah, what do you do? What do you do? You're actually on here?

Well listening and looking to quit look at those YouTube comments from time to time on anybody whether it's Rogan Look, you ever see Rogan's fucking Instagram You want to fucking shoot him like Rogan opposed something about a Fight and they're talking a lot of shit that has nothing to do with the fight Like, you know, they're in Stingy way and you're like, I feel bad for Joe Like he is a guy that works hard. He's a smart guy. He reads fucking books He does research for his podcast and you break his fucking balls too. Okay, then what kind of person are you?

You know, so 14 year old that quiz nose just pissed off at life You know, that's what I always think of like when you read these negative comments like who's the person that's writing this What kind of life do they live? It's just I feel sad if you had a life You wouldn't have time to write exactly we're being negative for yeah Are you that angry of a person and you don't know what type of day a person's happy? Very scary. You don't know what that person's going through You don't know what happened with his wife before he left the house His wife hasn't sucked his dick because he doesn't have a job

You know, when you see these these careless fucking murders on the news You're like a person died because a person was having a bad day or because you know, it's just sad. It's fucking very sad mental health You know, you look at fucking leave here at night and go on to that bridge over there How many homeless people live over there tons now? There's a lot See that have you fucking seen that at night and they're walking out in the street Yeah, the other day the one guy was sweeping garbage onto the street You go under the bridge on Chandler the bridge on every belly now. Yeah, I fucking the

Open mic over there. Yeah, you see that fucking bridge on Laurel Canyon. They got people living under there, you know There's and I can listen. I know the difference between there's a big black dude that walks around here six six two ninety What do you want to do every time I see him I give him a 20 I haven't seen him in about three weeks because I always say if me and my wife get the beef I just sick fucking this guy. I talked to him a few times. He's an ex. He's an ex. Yeah, what was the the conflict in late the 90s or The one at the 9-11 that one Iraq or oh desert storm desert storm He's one of those guys that walks around so I know you could kill a motherfucker. Yeah, so every time I see him

That's a good move man He's walking past my block I'm gonna have to fight with two Puerto Ricans he's jumping in that fucking guy Yeah, but no, I know the between mental health and fucking being a scumbag and I know the different Mental health and being a fucking shit heel. There's a big fucking difference man, but we live with it. All I want is The comics to heal correctly, you know, I want the comics to everybody's gonna heal from This is gonna take a while. Yeah, I could feel it last at the store, you know that there was still remnants of it So yeah, it's still going on. It's still going on and a lot of these young comics. That's their first major. Yes one, too Yes, so

You know for something like Jimmy Schubert. He was here when fucking Kenison died, right? Like, you know, all those people like that That's You know, I was here for Marilyn. I was here for Freddie Soto No, I miss Marilyn miss Marilyn too, I miss Freddie from time to time I put the store You know Brody's gonna be a hard one, you know, I didn't see him as much as I talked to him I would talk to Brody on the phone and then him and Bert Lee and Bert would tell me about His videos at Starbucks around the corner. Oh, I was oh, I would run into him all the time and then he stopped going unfortunately, but that's

that's one thing I'm very thankful for is the podcast and the videos and Yeah, we have a lot of content That's one good thing, you know, it's cuz he did nothing but record himself and make sure you know I have like all the Brody Nester podcast I I have so many things to go back and watch because I I watched one the other day And I was just like wow, I forgot all about this, you know, when you showed me that one before I didn't want to watch I thought I was gonna fucking cry. Yeah, I don't want to watch it. It was a

It's I don't know. It's for me. It's very cuz I I came into this as a fan and it was I got I Do regret and this is one thing that I'm trying to take from it is I I never got to see him Do his late night at the main room. Oh, really? I didn't that's what I'm very regretful for that So I but I got to do shows with him at like the second war I did I did shows with him everywhere and that was with you at the ice house and that was great, but I'm looking one thing I'm trying to take from him is from this is to is to go out and See the stuff not wait and I'll be like, I'll see that sometime like I like everyone got to see that and then I

Bummed out that I didn't get to go see him With like the dude and that's one thing I learned. I didn't realize he didn't know how to play the drums. I Forget who I was talking to now. He does. No, no, I'm pretty sure. I think it was either Josh Wolf was saying One of the videos I was watching that he played it on the chairs But he was supposed to be in a music video and they gave him a real set of drums. He's like, I don't know how to play these well I mean He probably I don't know because like when you have you have a whole drum kit in front of you That's way different than like being able to like if you had like if he had a drum in front of him

He he could play drums. Oh Yeah, I don't know about that but I used to love his his periscopes He would play music and he would like zoom around his room a little bit for the whole time like he called like a junior jam I just I love his little he would call like he had like an intern that was setting up It was just him be no, it was just him saying it He would tweet it. He'd be like the interns going to Starbucks for a coffee run coming He would just be goofy the entire time what I loved it one of the things that when I was at his apartment, they were

You know, like what should they donate or what should they get and he had its box of all his drum pads And I was like, you know what? I don't want them just to throw this away So I have all his little drum pads and his little drum that he would do with the little speaker that Yeah, flashed and stuff like that. I think I'm gonna just hang it up at the studio or something like all his pads I love that he would tour with it. He would bring it all the road. What did you get so you took the drums? I have it like his little drum pads his little shakers Oh, you know and all that stuff his little Bluetooth thing that he would play to because that's what I used to love it's watching him just sit there and play drums and his thing and

I'm a little bouncy on a little medicine ball. Yeah, something I also I also have a lot of stuff that I think I'm very scared in and And make it available to friends and family and Fans like old set lists and and like like I have set lists from like two thousand like 20 years ago You know or 15 years ago. I just says nipples beard scar, you know, like and you know, it's fun to see like Set lists or where he had scratched off. He's like too dirty or something like that It's so adorable like looking through all this stuff and his little notes and stuff So I'm ready try to get that out there for people to look at and download or whatever. It's very

Hard for me to comprehend So it's very hard to explain to people that This comedy life has been Tremendous like this has just been tremendous of this Comedy saved my life, you know comedy Put a smile on my face comedy made me fall in love with something that I knew was there, but I never knew I was capable of doing like I saw it in the movies and All these things that I'm doing I wanted to do, you know, and now I got an opportunity to go

I don't really want to do movies no more, you know, unless it's the movie. I don't want to do this, but You know last week I went to Houston And I was fine, you know, I wasn't thinking about Brody. I was just Looking forward to Monday. I was looking forward to a couple things and then something life just stops you, you know, a lady came to the show and She came young, you know, she goes do you remember me and you try to be nice or polite I went out that Thursday and took some pictures She goes I was at the show the night you took your dick out and chased Rogan

And it's just like I had forgotten that whole memory like that whole thing I've been I don't even think Joe and I have spoken about it Were you in Houston with us that time? I don't feel like it I know it was it was for fear factor and he had gone down there to promote his CD. So we worked Addison Friday Saturday Sunday and then we rented a car and drove to Houston on Monday Tuesday and Monday we went to a Record store we bought clothes, you know, he bought me clothes You know, you went to a record store with him and you picked up three CDs and he would pay for them his shit So I picked up Freddie Prince live from Chicago

And some Red Fox album or something and me and him drove To Houston at this time Joe did not get high So it was the longest ride of my fucking life in those days. It wasn't like going to call Let me just smoke this joint outside. Yeah, he would get mad at you. Yeah So I was smoking cigarettes. He let me smoke him in the car with the window That was cool. That was cool He was having a good time. Yeah, he was first starting the headline like he was I think News radio had just wrapped up and he still really wasn't into fear factor

But Warner Brothers had given them money to do an album and the album release party was in Houston That's what it was The album release party was at a sports bar Warner Brothers did another sports bar and we were like, why would you do another sports bar instead of the last stop? So we ended up going to the sports bar like eight people showed up To get their CD signed or their album signed It was me in the middle with my dick out and the cape on that one. Yeah, so that's why he took me with and Then Tuesday, we did them open Mike Monday night in Houston

Which Houston was known for the best open Mike in the country eight to fucking That laughs up the last time and then we went out. We went out with mongol and everybody outlaw Dave DJ so we ended up in Lola's in Montrose area a fucking bar that had no windows you go in there You're like, hi, I like a makers mark and they're looking and go it's seven and seven night That's it. We got seven and seven and Heineken's what's your choice? You didn't go in there in order to drink They told you were you were drinking so you might go in there one of the fucking martini. They're like, no It's gray. I'm not tonight walking grapefruit juice. I don't like grapefruit juice, but it's vodka night

You know then it's vodka night. Well, I don't like vodka. Well, we got fucking But what's the beer they drink in Houston? Shiner. Shiner. Yeah, we got Shiner. That's it So I took Joe there that was packed and you know in those days I can only hold out so long So I waited for Joe to get drunk a little drunk Which he was very hard to do in those days Just one shot like where he wouldn't pay attention and I went and got a package And I'm doing the package with outlaw Dave and I could tell Joe knows I'm fucking coked up Me and outlaw there's got to be three other people that don't fucking coke around Joe

and it Two or three in the morning outside of we decided he goes What am I gonna do tomorrow night? And I'm like, I don't know what do you want to do because this is so much fun. He goes fucking let's do a free show So we left outlaw day We went and got breakfast and outlawed to about four Then we went back to our hotel rooms and then went back to radio date And he told the city of Houston. He was doing a free show

He called Mark Babbit woke Mark Babbit up and said I'm doing radio get somebody down there to the To the club to answer the phone to put the names on the list And we did a free fucking show it's great and then Joe went up there and the The whole last stop had the same thing that the comedy story does I could really get to you from the original room Behind people don't know that I could go if I go in the back bar. There's a hallway back there Oh, that's right. I forgot about that. You can slip into that stage Yeah, and I would go behind that stage and open up the curtain naked and flip up and then close them back again So I went into the back of the rip up the last stop

And I forgot that they had done improv there. I'm like Sunday nights was improv night Some group were coming and they'd have Whatever the fuck you call it like stunts. What do you call those props props props? And they had like one of those King Tut fucking things. I took my shirt And I put the King Tut helmet on and Joe was on stage and I'm like he's gonna get pissed Really gonna get pissed If I do this, so I waited towards the end of his set And I fucking came out there fucking my dick out. He just looked and looked again

I'm like give me a hug. He's like get the fuck out of here And somebody taped it the place went fucking nuts. The place went bananas I mean, no, I remember looking to the back of the last stop remember there was a long row In the last stop you all had to sit together if you took the last table. It was a great seat It was just a row where 60 people shot sat It was like going to church without the middle. So it was just a long thing with tables And I'll never forget people standing back there clapping like I'm looking back there And I'm naked from the pants down and people were just on their cushions clapping

I was like a holy shit and that lady showed me the picture and said that was the night. Wow That had to be 18 fucking years ago and then you came on board and then I started recording all those nights Joe was traveling with six motherfuckers at his time You remember being in San Jose and Denny would show up with half the jujitsu school Oh, yeah, and him and Eddie Bravo would take their shoes off and jujitsu and San Jose What about the time with the tempi? Oh, and they had the fight off the fight off. Yeah, what don't you have no idea? You guys have no idea and Adam was there at the time. He was a way The gentleman in the county store was a waiter at the tempi and Bob and there was a guy that was like a purple belt one night

So him and Tate went at it first Indian guy not like seven like good guys. Nobody was thrown punches But in those day like a tournament. No in the middle of the lobby Every fucking night every fucking night with Eddie Bravo those days so Denny would come Denny was 16 15 and we were snickering into Out the into cops. Yeah upstairs Remember when we ate so many chicken things that the people in cops told us no more and I went off. Oh, that's right They had the best Chicken tenders you ever had so we

Are it was three in order we put in the re Really quit we told Joe Rogan We're getting the fuck out of here. This motherfucker won't give us no more chicken strip. He's like, all right. All right. All right I was only playing with you guys. Oh my god, Johnny Apple Cedar, whatever. What was his name Johnny Apple Cedar? No, what was the guy? Okay Then there was Tom Sawyer. I'm sorry. I had to crush on Joe That you went downstairs the one day and he showed up with a two-seater PF cruiser. Oh, yeah

Nobody remembers that he always wanted to be alone with Joe So Joe would always bring you and Duncan remember the time you and Duncan had it out. Oh, yeah Duncan stabbed me with a pen you through the you through the fucking hat Adam You came down to you like thank you for fucking taking me to radio Also the hat flies across the table and shit fucking tremendous holy shit What about the whole time we stayed out when they were supposed to be like a ship? Oh, yeah, I still stay there I still stay there, too. I like I stayed there a couple years ago. It's a good Chowder place above the Chowder place Yeah, the blue

Remember when they found the body across the street in a suitcase in the water in the ocean we're staying there Found a person they'll chopped up and I woke up and there was cops everywhere. I couldn't go outside and smoke a joint I thought they were there for me We had a run where what about the time we were in the hotel room and the hotel the kid sprayed the fucking spray Oh, the fire extinguisher. Yeah, we're all gonna die you and Rogan. Yeah, Rogan run a bit about that Yeah, that's right. That was the worst because I remember I kept look the alarm was going off and I get up I'm like if you think I I'm leaving this hotel

You're fucking crazy What if there's really a fire it seemed like a real fire too because there was so much smoke Because I opened up the hallway guys and I saw people running and I just slammed the door and I'm like If this is a false alarm, I'm gonna beat the fuck out of So finally it was like a 445 my flight was like at seven anyway So I'm like god damn it And I remember looking out the window and seeing people out there. I'm like, oh shit This might be fucking serious. Yeah, so I packed up my sleep-back machine. I was leaving the morning anyway

You guys were staying. That's why I wouldn't work Sundays and Joe would get So smart so ahead of the time you were You made that rule for most comics nowadays like yeah, no, there's no reason to work on Sunday leave me the fuck alone So that's Saturday night I Look out and there's people downstairs. I open up the door and people kill themselves to run down the stairs Oh, yeah, I was about to throw myself out a window and just start punching a long people I'm sitting there going, you know what I am not in the fucking mood in the pack But once I looked out again, I go, this is serious that could be a fire

But I didn't smell no smoke so I packed up my sleep apnea bag I took my little bag and I went to the elevator and pressed it the elevator opens right up That's right Because there was a spiral one of the spiral staircase like every like 12 floors Why are these people running when you can take the elevator? I would love to see the face on the people in the lobby when the elevator door Just looked at me like because they made you go outside. Yeah So now I come on I don't see none of my friends

But I look up and I see Rogan Segura and you on the street corner Look it up and they're like, what a fuck have you been on the elevator? Yeah, I had a pack wasn't there and there was something behind like a lady a stripper or something Remember there was like behind us the woman came out or something happened. It was like a hooker hooker There was hookers and there was a hooker Chinese hooker place. Yeah, right We used to fucking go on the road with six of us I still remember getting the big table at Papadose We would go to Austin Hotels are across the street. We just all walkable tree. That's the best what we have is Houston

Yeah, that's what the picture means like this in the pool with Ari with Ari took a meme No, no, that's in that's Austin. No, that's Phoenix that that weird resort with the waterfalls and Jenna Jamison and all that stuff Remember they had that was the other one That was the crazy one about the rocks. Yeah all the rocks that you're like going on vacation or something That was move your bed. That was I don't like we couldn't fucking go away. Yeah, you had a walk before uber Yeah, you had a walk down the road with snakes crossing. Yeah, there was no place to get like water I remember going to the fucking lady and going. Hi. Where's their restaurant around here? And they're like you gotta walk down the dirt road. You gotta wait and take a car or call a cab or something

Yeah, I didn't like that place at all the brute the boot the boots the Brutes but the but the butte. Yeah, the butte's Yes, beautiful town. Yeah, but it's just so away from everything. Yeah, so I don't know if the lady was messing with me I don't think she said I'll follow you. I wouldn't walk out there And I'm like why not she goes because it's rattlesnake season or something Yeah, it was it was and then we had a way for Joe to wake up and he had the rental car

Yeah, and then we'd all go down, you know, if you really think about on paper like the thing with me and Rogan was probably 99 2000 and The stuff with you you said had to be 2004 Really, yeah So it was before the longest yard and we were hanging out Yeah, and we would do all that shit when you were texting me. Yeah, and I would chase you around. Yeah And then Atlanta is what we called Duncan

The Atlanta punchline is where we called Duncan and made the tape of me accused him. Oh, yeah Yeah, that worship is really bad outside satanic. It was really you humid there. That's right I hate that so much. I hate that clip because Monday morning We had a drive during fucking rush hour and it was like an hour and a half drive to the fucking airport because it says the Atlanta punchline But it's really not Atlanta. Yeah, it's like an hour outside of Atlanta Oh, no, so you would have to drive a fucking hour on Monday morning. That's when I stopped off. Listen Mondays I just figured out that's when you were yelling at Rogan. Remember the video of you you screaming at Rogan. I Think that was Texas. Oh, we had the van. Okay, when he had the white van

He insisted on fucking renting a car Every fucking time we went and I would say to him Joe, you don't know where you're fucking going Why do you rent a car? And he would get that Siri whatever that ladies name is Yes, it was it was like first GPS's And both of you's would be driving me fucking crazy with the GPS It really wasn't any good make a left in 3,000 seconds Right and fucking 22 minutes and I'm like guys knock it off with the rent We're done on fucking rental on Sunday

We had to bring back the rental car and fucking walk with all that fucking luggage To the I remember one day he parked far away to break my balls You know, he was my brother and I couldn't say nothing in front of people but I would call him up in this hotel room You know next time you make me walk that far with fucking luggage I will flatten those fucking tires with a knife. We will fucking be hoofing it back to the airport You understand me you park in front of the fucking hotel from now on and let us out with our luggage No, he made him in tight with Johnny shape. We're gonna be We're gonna park two miles from the hotel and walk with our fucking luggage in the heat of the fucking summer

You're out of your mind, man. Johnny shape, you know, it just it just looking at those pictures and talking them out of this There's a video I made a long time ago when we were in Philadelphia me you Joe and I think maybe Tate Oh, Ari. No, Ari. I think it's called if you type in Joe show, Philadelphia But that had the GPS I put the GPS in there for you at the beginning of it because it's like up ahead turn left I bet you like it because it was all about that same. It used to fucking drive me crazy All that shit drove me fucking crazy the computers the same cell phones. Oh, yeah, you used to hate cell phones

Texting I remember before remember when I used to have the laptop up at Cobbs, and we're okay Yeah, you like grab me like no turn that thing turn that fucking thing off You know that you know when that happened that was my 90th day off cocaine. Yeah, I quit cocaine that November 15th And we went to Cobbs at the beginning of the year and I didn't like being on like I was raised That if the phones on the hook they could even hear you Mm-hmm So in those days you guys would open that fucking computer up and I was petrified of it Petrified that the CIA was watching me along with the cocaine and all that shit

And I told him one day go Brian closed that fucking computer and Brian would put the camera on me Rogan came up Rogan had to pay for the fucking computer. He didn't talk to me for three weeks I Tell you what the scariest time ever was that tape you made of me Joe D is ready to die I think I think that's still available on YouTube. That's terrible. I watched that like four years ago I was like boy, that's the I I That was a rough time man because that you know that I really thought you hadn't made me believe that you were dying like you said your spirit left you and you just like you didn't want to live anymore and I

Remember making that video Like my mission in that video was to document what you were going through and try to like show you that we love you and everything's Going to be okay and happy. That's why if you watch the video it starts off so sad and depressing And like you're talking about how you want to die and then it's you on the plane singing on American Airlines singing. We're in that fake band 10-inch screws or whatever Instead of nineties nails and we all had wigs on and You were how by the way, how did we I thought we were all gonna get arrested and we did that because twice on the way

They're in the way back you we somehow tricked the Stewardess into letting you get on the intercom and singing Biggie I don't know what one of those it was one of those you in the middle of song you go Rogan. I want to race Because Rogan's that to me if you get up there and sing I give you a raise. Yeah And you did and that was the one of the most amazing and shocking because this was after 9-eleven So the fact that they let you like take over an intercom system. Oh my god, I was rapping and you're rapping You're like, who is this calling me at six in the morning

And then you switch songs in one of them, you know That fucking Vegas thing ready to die. I can't tell you the damage I did that week I got a call from one of my best friends ever and he goes. We're going out to Vegas a bunch of us on this date and I go, that's crazy Cuz I'm gonna be there too on that day. We were at the house of blues I think Friday and Saturday, right? What was it? No Friday you have sat up Friday It was the thing and Saturday was the UFC. Yeah, okay

First of all, I had done the longest yard and we talked about this the other day and I was fucking depressed Because nothing came out of it fucking Chris Rock got the show fucking The black guy got a show All of a sudden the other guy got big and the only people who stayed the same were me Lobo and fucking Nick tutorial everybody else got something on the longest yard everybody Everybody everybody hates Chris Cheeseburger Eddie. He's big of Terry Cruz. I mean, you know Go so all these people had everything. I got nothing. Nobody fucking call me

I was thinking about quitting comedy, but when I would go to Vegas There was a kid that would go to the UFC's and he was part of the UFC like something he did something for the UFC And every time he'd see me look at me in the stands they go And then he'd go like this like call me And I think that that Thursday I got his number That Thursday when you made that tape, this is no shit like we got into town and I lost you guys Like I was like, I don't feel good. I'm gonna stay in my room. Fuck you I remember this that guy brought up an eight ball and he would bring up the come-down package

What's next to ten dollars? It was two Vikings Two fucking valley. That's a good deal. So it was one hand for the package. He would deliver to your door I think I spent six hundred dollars that weekend on coke Yeah, I remember that weekend and my friends kept calling me going. Hey, we're over here These are my height. These are my friends from high school And they're like we're over at this hotel where we got a free fucking dinner come over and I go I'll be over in 10 minutes I would never show And then they couldn't come to the show because they were going to a bachelor party and that's what happened that Friday night

It was like after I had done two eight balls And I had done pills to just straight now for the show like this is This is when I was to the point where I was snort until six and not sleeping Like I was to that so when I tape that that's after being up 48 hours you could see the bags under my eyes. How fat was I? Oh god, it's amazing. God. Yeah The differences. Oh my god, I couldn't even breathe. Yeah, I couldn't even breathe was like I had 30 pounds on my chest all the time And I'll never forget talking like I was serious like I was done and I was done like nothing happened from this movie I can't stop snorting coke. I can't stop

Like let's just get worse guys like I can't stop and Rogan wanted to pitch a show About calling saving Joey Diaz. Yeah, where they come to my house and do blood test Yeah, and piss the bottle and shit like that and that was starting to get on my nerves now I don't know if you remember.

Yeah, I remember the phone calls I was yeah, and nobody better come to my fucking house and wake me to fuck up I'm gonna start shooting some people like I was we were we were about to do an intervention Yes, that's what what it was leading to and yeah, and it was that bad I Could feel it now how bad it was and when I saw those tapes a couple years ago. I

Almost called you to say to take them down But I didn't want to take them down because I wanted to show people that you could be in a horrible fucking spot in your life That was one of the worst spots. I was in my life like I had a little bit of money Like I was making a little bit of money that much No, that was going to blow and all it was going to blow. I mean I couldn't control it.
