It was a beautiful day to be alive was 80 fucking two degrees here in jersey today. Yeah, that was great
We would I went out this morning was 66 out of coming and change
I I love putting on shorts for the first time. Oh, I put on some shorts today. My legs got some sun
Yeah, I went to austerea tonight and got a quick cheeseburger
Fucking delicious. I gotta tell you
I'm not a big cheeseburger guy. I'm not a hamburger guy
I tried to get it out of my system 20 years ago, you know, like because if not you end up eating fucking burger every goddamn day
You know
And I found that place in the valley which was good about three times on
Ventura. Yeah. Yeah, I went to the wolves. They shrunk the burger was dry, you know
It was a fancy burger place. It was a fancy like a hipster one not a not fancy hipster
Hipster but the burger was pretty good and they did a good job. They had fries with mozzarella on it you know those a fries but
You know, you're gonna put cheese on my fries
You put on the steak fry a fucking HIV fryer break it half like a COVID fry, you know, they just break in half. So
This place Osteria has a Monday night burger it's 1695 Wow
the fucking burger is like
Short rib and you know
The flavor on you get it a little rare
You know the flavor on you get it a little rare
So then and the flavor is out of this fucking world and that's not even like that's really reasonable
McDonald is costing that much now
1695 and a fucking beer on Monday night I don't eat a lot of burgers if I go there once every 90 days for a burger, but today I felt like a fucking burger
Oh, yeah, I would have drank a beer, but I would've got too fucked up with a podcast You know me though
You you get that fucked up from one beer
Two weeks ago on Easter Sunday, I took my family out and I got sangria
Oh nice, and I said what could one glass of sangria do to me, but
My fucking nature popped up and, and I drank half the pitcher.
I got home.
The alcohol with the food, it just didn't mix.
I fucking barked, and I had to go upstairs and go to sleep.
Fuck.
I can't drink.
It's a waste of time for me.
It's not good.
It depresses me. It's a waste of time for me It's not good. It depresses me. It's over doesn't depress me as much as I used to when I was younger
You know, even those last couple years at the Comedy Store very embarrassing people talking to you got a fucking water in your head
Like some fucking my move, you know, I wish I could drink two or three rum and Cokes and go home
I wish I knew how to do that
Wish I could drink two or three rum and cokes and go home. I wish I knew how to do that
But after the first one it's over I get sick the soda the sweetener
It's just the whole thing
Wow, and you think it's a soda
But it's alcohol. She's all alcohol. That's crazy alcohol
You know, I think you have such a big tolerance for other things. Oh, I'm a fucking horse But like today I had to give the the spirits a glass of Bacardi this morning
Okay, I buy him a little fucking bottle of Bacardi and I give the spirits a glass on Mondays
Smelling it fucking drives me crazy
Really? Yeah
Fuck what?
That is crazy, but that burger is nice that I love
Do they have anywhere to sit outside at austere or no? Just yeah. Yeah
I'm like listen if I had a ride i'm gonna got a burger
And they have a beer in a frozen mug, which is my all-time favorite
Yeah, if you could drink a beer
It's got to be in a frosted fucking mug and don't give me a half frosted one with a little bit ice
I mean, I want that motherfucker to be you know, I want it to stick to my fingers when I'm drinking it
You follow me. Do you ever have that at your own house? You put them in the freezer? No
No, sometimes like egg creams or something
But then you get the odor of the fucking meat and whatever duck your mom has in there
You know, you're trying to enjoy your soda and all sudden fucking it tastes like fucking chicken ala mode whatever the fuck it is

20 week and the countdown has begun Jack
Jesus I just saw by the way
Someone sent me a clip of like when I would get super high and laugh.
And one of the biggest things that made me laugh
was when you would,
for a while you were calling onit.com, alphabrain.com
and it just like, we got so high
that I just could not stop laughing.
I would just be, people thought I was sleeping. I wasn't sleeping. I was just fucking listen brother the damage we did
Took years to recover. Thank God for the pandemic. All right
These people really have no idea. Thank God for the fucking pandemic
2,000 milligrams a day and 22 joints
Good for you somewhere along the line shit's gonna break down and it did it did I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie.
I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not gonna lie. night and then I really wanted to go to New York City but god damn Lee just
thinking about it just thinking about it you know and I don't want to listen man
the worst thing I see lately is like a high-level comic comes to town and all
sudden like a comic that's maybe you know shows up and tries oh I didn't know
this is going on tonight oh you want me to, oh, I didn't know this was going on
tonight. Oh, you want me to do a set. I don't want to be that guy. And Josh is my brother.
He knows we always have a but I don't want to be that guy. I don't want and I can't sit
in the audience because people will terrorize me. Hey, can we take a picture? Fucking Josh
is on stage. Right? He's on stage. It doesn't work
It doesn't work. You know, I wanted to go see Tony Rock last week. I
Can't you know, it's just so many fucking things. I don't have Tony Rock's number, right?
I would call them the south slip in the back with you something. I can't go in there
I listen my motto has always been for me right now the last 10 years I
Could come into your room Wednesday and Thursday and do a guest set Friday and Saturday it belongs to the headliner
If I'm gonna show up on a Friday of a Saturday, what the fuck is wrong with you Joey?
You think so you think because people just go crazy
No, because
It looks like I'm trying to steal somebody else's done
And I don't want to do that. I never want to try to steal somebody's done the people work hard
I was never one of those guys to bump people. I was never those guys to run the light
Before you could become a great comic, you have to respect other comics
and respect the comedy rooms
and just all around.
And that's what, if you do that all the time,
you will become a better comic.
It starts with respecting everybody else.
Listen, I don't have the heart
to walk into a club and bump comics
What are you doing people ask you if you want to bump no, I'll wait I
Got walk in a room and they'll go you could go up whenever you want
Now let these guys work their magic because I remember
Being on that thing and some douchebag comes in and
Does 50 minutes he's supposed to do 10?
Right he does 50 fucking minutes
And I remember how I felt sitting back there going what the fuck is going with my life
This guy comes in three nights a week, you know once they stopped that at the store
It really helped a lot of comics comics felt
Oh, it really made a change because everybody knew that from Monday to Thursday
Somebody was gonna pop in and
Ruin your fucking night. So if you were gonna go on an 11 now you were gonna go on a 10 12 10. I
Can't even imagine the audience is like that for that long
They might have liked it at the beginning for 15 20 30 minutes, but not an hour or two hours. I
Love people. I fucking love people
But you know one of the reasons I left Cuba
Because you got to pay attention to Fidel Castro every Sunday for fucking six hours and talking
And in my world, I can't listen to Jesus talk for six hours. Give me a fucking breather
I got to take a walk around the block stretch my legs. I'm gonna sit there like I'm a mook, you know for four hours
Three hours when I see a comic I want to see your best 50 fucking minutes and we get the fuck out of here
Right the fire and you want to take me for an hour and a half
But it's an hour and a half fire
i'm in
Right is that I I don't I never saw that, you know
We were talking about something the other day a friend, uh, jimmy florentine
If you go over at the garden by one minute,
it's $10,000 a minute.
Fuck.
I think Gabriel talked about that with Dodger Stadium.
I think he said like he lost money or I don't know,
don't quote me on that, but he was talking about going over.
It was a minute, think about that.
Damn.
10,000, now when I was a kid I go to concerts they do four on cause
Six on course, I would get so bored. I leave fuck it. I just
Songs they did my song. I kissed the girl next to me. It's time to go home. Why leave with all these animals and
Take the train and walk to the fucking time. Whatever that
Port authority on 48th Street, whatever we have to walk from there the garden with 800 other people
You know get out now get the fuck out. All right, he did my jam
it's time to go I stole a t-shirt from this idiot next door who got drunk and
And uh
Who did he steal a t-shirt from
Oh when I was a kid, I went to one show and the shirts were expensive
I'm like i'm not buying no fucking shirt and i'm sitting there like 15 minutes and a little pigeon falls asleep next to me
With the t-shirt under his arms like the wing
I just tickled him a little bit. He picked up a little bit and stole that shirt. That motherfucker woke up 35 hours lighter and he had like four people step on him.
Dog, I went to a bunch of shows. I was just thinking about the last good show I went to.
Bill Burr and Dean Delray were there. All right. Oh, in LA? Yeah. And we're at the Palladium. We're watching Guns N' Roses and That crazy dude is there that that's a
Singer and he comes out. He says Michael Jackson molested him and all that. I forget that dude's name. Oh, yeah
He was an actor too, right? Yeah. Yeah, and he does the concerts and people go fun people just hire him to go fun
Yeah, how much we got left in the budget give it to him. He's gonna do something
He's gonna come out and yell at the band
Get out the guy is a fucking piece of work
But anyway something there. There's a lot of freaky people walking around. I don't say nothing nobody. I'm with my wife
I got two thousand milligrams of me guns and roses coming on. What do I got to complain about but I'm watching this girl. I
Think I erased the photos. I'm watching this girl and I say to myself I've been that age
And that young girl has been drinking since 530 in the afternoon
And she's she she's here now
Guns ain't coming on till 9 and she's drinking beer and doing shots with those guys and the girl must weigh a buck ten. I
Just watched her out of corner of my eye and I go bill watch this
And within ten minutes she started passing out on the fucking table and the guys that were interested in there and all that shit
They just fucking turned around and listened to guns and roses and this chick is all fucked up and it started when I sleep on the table
Then she had both hands on the table and then she said abandon ship and she just laid on to the table
Oh, no on top of her and as I was leaving she was barfing
How did you get so observant?
Like I I don't think I mean maybe I like I understand what she's laying on under the table
You would notice her but like you would notice her when she's just started
I just want to test my instincts if I was right
You know, I'm looking around for fucking Iranians, you know saying I don't know if they got a bomb the fucking guns of roses concert
I know if they're gonna lay down in front of the axle
I get to a place I'm looking for exits
That's the first thing you do when you walk into the movies or anything like that
You sit away from somebody suspicious always close to that exit where you could duck roll
Have you ever needed to make a quick exit somewhere oh
When I was a kid there was always a quick exit, you know, there was always a back door run out of here
When I was a kid you had to run away from oh my god Jesus, but I
That's crazy. I had a really cool
Like music excited cuz I'm not really a big music person
But I went to let's start from scratch Thursday night. What'd you do?
Thursday night Thursday night. What'd you do?
Thursday night Thursday night. I did three shows
Where one at one at Broadway Comedy Club and two at the Williamsburg Comedy Club. Okay, and then Friday. What'd you do?
Friday I did What did I do Friday Friday? I did um, I think
Friday I did I think one comedy show one comedy show at Brooklyn Comedy Club and then Josh Jacob and I got it like a we got to go to the radio city radio city music hall and go backstage and it was just cool to see like we saw where the Rockettes did all their shit. It was fun. Good for you. And then Saturday just the one show Saturday and to Saturday the main one was with Josh at Gramercy, which was fantastic.
I, I had a really good show.
It was the whole show was awesome.
It was, uh, before I ask, is the Gramercy going to close next weekend?
No, not because of me.
Thank God.
Um, no, I had one of my best New York weekends.
I've been there like five or six
no more than that because five or six with you, but like I've been going there consistently over the last couple of years and
Friday night
At Brooklyn and then Saturday at Gramercy were probably two of my best sets in New York. Because there's definitely a different energy there
and different kinds of material seems to work.
And I finally felt pretty comfortable.
I did, and I know you hate it
and I don't even like it either,
but I just naturally, Williamsburg is just small.
So I found myself leaning against the back of the stage.
I don't think I'll ever do that again, but it was I just felt very comfortable on stage
Well, it's very listen man
You got to find your comfort zone if it means hopping up and down on one fucking leg with a pogo stick
If that's what's gonna make the audience kill
You know
That's what's gonna
You have to find comfort, but I want you
When I first started I used to go from side to side. I was a big fan of Eddie Murphy delirious
Mm-hmm any walking side to side so I would walk from side to side
And then I just started slowing down and then I would just stand in front of the mic
Yeah, lose my hand on the mic like Ozzy Osbourne and control the mic.
And then somewhere along the line
one day I couldn't hold the mic.
And I noticed that when I moved my hands,
the story, the delivery, I sold it.
That's what sells it.
It's everything connected to you.
Right.
Joke is coming out of your fucking heels and it moves up your body
And it's like when you hit a baseball or when you hit a golf ball, I don't really know much about golf
But when you hit a golf ball or a baseball your swing is fucking perfect
Like once you get your swing perfect, that's when
You know and that's when you start to see it, you know?
Yeah, and it's interesting
because Josh and I talked about this.
He said that like he would do,
once he got into it, he would do like a year.
He said he did a year sitting down
and then a year standing up,
a year with it in the mic stand
just to see like what works with what.
And now he like flows between all three i would say and
Yeah, it was just uh
Like I just started I have one joke where I sit down for 30 seconds. Um, not even it's just part of the joke
but
I like friday i got saturday was great. It was awesome and to do grammar see and the show went very well
but friday It was awesome to do grammar see and the show went very well, but Friday
Was a little bit different of a set because I went I didn't go up there with like a plan at all and
Like I don't I don't really do crowd work
but like stuff was happening in the crowd and I addressed it from the previous comic and I just it was like more like we
were having a conversation and me just talking at him and
It was like I didn't get heckled at all, but it was like one of the cooler sets that I've had
It's very funny when you I don't know for me it took a
Eight years. It was in the belly room
While I was doing a storyteller show
Like we were doing something, Testicle Testaments.
Mm-hmm.
And it was really tough the first couple of times I did it
because there was a minute of silence.
Right.
While you're telling the story.
But that minute of silence that night taught me patience.
It took me eight years to learn patience on stage.
That you're navigating.
It's like when you see a black belt
doing a technique, you see a blue belt doing it and he's about to submit the guy but he's huffing
and puffing, he's red in the face, the guy's moving, a black belt locks you up first.
And by the time he takes your arm for the arm bar, it's clean. It's perfect. It's just precision, you know, and that's
Bro, it's years on stages like years on mats
Like years of playing pool like years of building the houses, you know
you just get a knack for it and you get quicker at it and better at it and
You know, I'm having a problem right now. I love to get up three or four nights a week, right?
You know if I could drive 20 minutes here 40 minutes here. It's not happening
It's not happening, you know, and there's other reasons. It's just not happening
I'm thinking maybe one night when I get back next week watch when Ari's at the stand and go up there and
Hang with them for the night and maybe start doing that.
Just go in the city one night a week, do three spots and get in the fucking car and come
home and start all over again.
Yeah.
You get good at comedy.
Listen, you got to be out there.
And I've told people this for years.
Like somebody said to me, if you put a date out for 18 months and we booked a garden. Would you do it? I ain't gonna listen
People have no idea how much work it takes into selling tickets at the garden or packing the garden
You know fucking people
If if Tony Hinchcliffe would have done the garden first, maybe he wouldn't have sold it up
To thank God with Tony. He built it up. He went to the Moody Theatre or whatever the University of Texas
He sold out not one
But two shows. I don't know how many fucking pay-per-views and now he goes into the garden selling that not one
But two what did we talk about the other day?
momentum The garden selling that not one but two what did we talk about the other day? momentum
Right is momentum. It's a train. I'm not gonna get any better company going on stage three times
To get better at comedy. It's a seven night a week
ten to twelve year trek and
You sacrifice a lot you tell a lot of people to go fuck themselves
And you sacrifice a lot you tell a lot of people to go fuck themselves
You lose a lot of friends. Nobody starts inviting you to things. I'm gonna invite you You're not gonna show and and you're like, come on. I'm busy, but the deep down inside you're like, I just hope you wouldn't invite me
Because even if I do get invited I'm gonna find a gig that night
Hopefully, I'm a comic
I'm on the way up. I'm trying find a gig that night. Hopefully. I'm a comic. I'm on the way up.
I'm trying to fucking get better.
I can't sit at your house for fucking four hours
and reminisce.
There's a spot somewhere out there.
There's a stage that I can slip into and do it.
And that's the mentality.
And you asked Josh, when we got to LA,
his cousin would always have Hollywood parties.
Asked me how many I went to I told you zero
Zero, I wasn't there to go to parties. I don't mind snorting coke by myself, but I'm not there to go to parties
I'm there in LA if I'm fucking in LA
And I'm not enjoying my family or my friends back East or missing things
What what are you doing?
Somebody's got to pay for you on a fucking daily basis
Somebody's got a pay if you get up out of bed you're fucking getting up out of bed to rule the world
You're not getting up out of bed to fucking today. I'm gonna smoke 10 cigarettes fuck no motherfucker
You know at the at the six-year market comedy. I was doing what you were doing
Monday morning no matter how many lines of coke I did
No matter what time I fucking fell asleep. I was at the print shop on Monday mornings in Seattle lying
Just making up fake schedules booked in Alaska booked in Hong Kong
They can't check references now. They think it go on a website in
1995 and checked if I was booking on tongue, but yeah, they don't know nothing
So I would lie about those dates. So when they'd see it they go wait a second this guy's in Australia
He's in Hong Kong. Maybe he's got something going on to be honest. He had never worked. I
Was gonna say did anyone ever say how is Hong Kong? No, it never worked my international
It's like those guys in the soprano when they're like, hey, we recorded in Denmark, you know, who gives a fuck?
Denmark So that's We recorded in Denmark, you know who gives a fuck Denmark
So that's
Yeah
No way you're talking about comment like the growth and like you were you were talking about
What happens when you get to a certain level because I saw I don't know if you've seen I don't want to butcher the joke
But Cristela Alonso put a joke up on Instagram that I saw about her her dad passing away
And it was it was really quiet for a few minutes and then got like one of the big like a humongous
Like it was one of my favorite jokes and I could tell it obviously a fucking dark
subject to cover
Well when you cover those subjects
You gotta have a back those subjects are tough because a newbie might go up there fuck with that shit
and then you can't get yourself out of that hole no listen I was doing comedy
ten years and I told a story on stage of my mother dying done done. Done.
I didn't know how to get myself out of that hole.
I did not know how to get myself out of that hole.
And then we'd go.
I would try it for about two weeks.
I would just go up to the bomb.
I'm leaving people crying in the audience.
You didn't find your mother.
That's a tough subject.
And I learned that that night at the comedy store
in the belly room, because that's the story I close with.
And I'm like, I'm happy I close with this
because nobody could bounce back from this.
And even when I did the one man show those nights,
I couldn't bring it up upfront.
It's a dig, it's a deep.
And then you learn, I'm not gonna lie to you,
learn from it, bomb it.
After you bomb 30 times,
you'll learn how to pick them right up.
It's like when David Tell goes,
I'm with Biden, hug to Biden, you know.
Speaking of that, did you see his new special?
Yeah, that's where I got it from.
Oh, is that a joke in that special?
Okay, and that was one of the best specials
I've seen in years.
You know why?
Because it was not produced.
It was crazy.
It was crazy.
He was talking to the side curtain.
Oh, he's broke out the recorder.
It's because we needed that
We needed that for special somebody had to go up there and break that fourth fucking wall
Enough with this going out there with a brand new jacket on the suit. He went up there with a flute
He was like a fucking burglar. Those are those are dudes. I have now when I used to burglary burglarize homes. Oh
My god, we're gonna burglarize the homes. Oh, jays. I don't feel so good myself. You know I'm saying
People are losing their minds about what
OJ died, you know
Flabbergasted that motherfucker never went to the grave and got away with the biggest
Trick of all time and didn't he like he's they're still fighting like even though he's dead
He's like they're still not getting my money
Dog he pulled listen that motherfucker died. Oh and Jews 34 million dollars
That's the greatest trick ever done a black man owned a Jew in this world
Nobody's ever done that he just went all day long. Fuck you motherfuckers. He was the king of anti-semitism
He wasn't giving them
He moved to Florida. He got Kanye West to play the drums on his album. He didn't give two fucks
Holy shit. I mean he didn't give two fucks if anybody was anti-semitism
He didn't even make a payment plan

This happened in 2004.
I'm a 31 year old man. You know, I'm out of prison ain't stabbing nobody well But let's be honest, you know, I
Grew up on the guy on Monday nights. I also grew up on our camp

I know my animals are starting to kick in. I made a little mushroom stem here
I've been eating mushrooms bro, and they put me to sleep like a certain amount
What are you talking about? It keep I have to have a sleeping pill because of mushrooms
What are you talking about? It puts you to sleep. I eat like a gram at nine o'clock and by 1030
I'm yawning. I get a little tingle for about 10 minutes and that's it.
But anyway, we were talking about this guy.
And, you know, after he retired,
I don't know what year he retired, you know,
I got into comedy and I was going through hell and, you know,
I wake up one day and I go to my friend's house in Boulder and there it is
in the paper, OJ's wife got killed.
And I heard years earlier, he had gotten in trouble for domestic violence.
Yeah, John McCarthy was talking about that.
Like he pulled him over one time.
And I remember going, but at that time I didn't know anybody.
I was like, he killed her.
Wow.
Okay. I didn't know anybody I was like right he killed her Wow, okay, but I want to explain something to people that have if they haven't figured this out yet
Uncle Joey's gonna tell him. Okay
Just like people were amazed with
The Epstein thing and people today are blown away about the diddy thing
This story had a lot of layers.
If you knew anything about what was going on.
In fact, if you wanna look it up, Mezzaluna,
the restaurant where Mr. Goldman worked
and they left that night, they got two years later,
they got shut down for cocaine.
Oh Jesus.
They waited till after the OJ trial and they
shut it down because the owners sold a kilo. I don't know, look
it up. But they closed down. That was never there ever again.
They were involved in a tricky situation. They were separated or
divorced, but he was still banging up from time to time.
You know, he had control of her.
You know, she was no angel, God rest her soul.
I'm not saying anything bad about her.
But she played a fucked up game
with people who were fucked up.
I mean, weren't on the street is the waiter
brought the Coke over to a house that night.
And she was waiting for Marcus Allen.
Really?
Are those stories true? No. I don't know. I don't know. I'm not saying no. And she was waiting for Marcus Allen You really?
Are those stories true? No, I don't know. I don't know. I'm not saying no
But you know she ends up dead
you know and
Everything points at OJ. I mean the truck the glove and they fucked it up on one technicality and it was they found a print
But it rained that night and it
washed the print off and then they fucked it up with whatever they wanted
to do and then they got the word from the higher-ups listen we can't because
if we convict there's a thousand things but the bottom line was just as creepy
as Epstein just as people are pulled by Diddy right now It was a disgusting life that they didn't need
He told them move to New York
You could do whatever the fuck you want. You can light your pussy on fire
Just don't do it here because this is my backyard and people gonna hear about it and they're gonna embarrass me
and you know, I
Guess people believe I feel bad about
The whole thing, you know goofing on it before but in reality, I guess people believe I feel bad about the whole thing. You know, goofing on it before.
But in reality, I'm a human being.
Yeah.
And I felt bad at the time.
Only I got to make a confession to you.
At that time I was thinking of killing my wife, my ex-wife.
Right.
Yeah.
So it fueled that Really? It really did
Fueled that it fueled that I won by the time he got let off. I was living in Seattle
but that
Because it was a similar thing
You know, she took my child and moved her in with a man without even talking to me
Nobody ever came to me. I kept calling the mother and she's like, oh she's out really a fucking three in the morning
She's out with the fucking kid, you know, it's just
So I felt like you know, I was disrespected that anger the blow didn't help
Whatever. Oh Jay was going through I was going through you know
and it just, you know, it was one of the many things that we never discussed how it just fueled me.
It really did.
Because it felt like I had to do something now.
Like the fucking dog was talking to me.
You know, the Jewish guy in New York City, the dog was talking to that dude. And that wasn't the dog. That was told you that Jews dress up that was a Jew from Israel
Dressed up as a dog barking at him
Burdening at him in Hebrew. How do you ask because you've talked about like
Almost doing that to like her at her new boyfriend or whatever. He was
Like and then you thank God you decided not to
And that's because you've talked about like, uh, almost doing that to like her,
her new boyfriend or whatever he was.
Like, and then you thank God you decided not to dog. It was a very, very scary time for me.
I was very volatile and I was angry and.
I felt like, you know, I was lost.
And the only thing that kept me alive then was stand up.
That's why I owed my life to stand up because everything was shitty in my life.
I wasn't really making any money.
I was doing drugs.
I was living in a basement apartment with a metal shower
My bed was like a thousand dollar bed, but it covered the whole room
So I didn't have walking distance
I would just I had to take the door off the hinge and I would just jump in the door better at night like a fucking
chimene you know
and
That seemed like an option
It was like if if I get rid of these motherfuckers,
for a couple of weeks I lived there,
maybe for a few months, it wasn't good.
And then I started seeing the truth
that this was never gonna work.
But just because it didn't gonna work,
I couldn't be around them because I knew I
Know me I know I get
You know, I don't think about it for a year and one day I'm driving on the street
This one guy cuts me off and I think about her and I'd make a u-turn and drive to a house and end it
I'm one of those idiots like that. That's why I always got in trouble because I don't know when you know
So but man, it was a tough time in my life those cuz yeah, I lived there
From he killed her on the 12th of June maybe 94
And I stayed another year almost to the date. I left like June 25th
And I don't know if you ever even got this far but you couldn't
There's not really a way for you to get help for that
Right because as soon as you say that you're going to somewhere
Like it would be almost better if like I wish you could talk to someone about that
At that time I was broken, you know, I had no control over anything.
You know, I had no control over the relationship.
I had no control over my addiction.
I had the only thing I had control of was going on stage.
And no matter how bad I felt, I'm like, if I go on stage, I'm gonna feel a lot better.
Yeah.
And that, this is why I tell people,
just cause fucking somebody read you the riot act,
your life ain't done.
Because I took that anger and I went out every night.
And I gotta be honest with you, I never showed it on stage.
I never really showed it on stage
until that night at the club 52, when the guy threw a bottle cap at me and I hit him with the head with the
The fucking batteries came out and shit
But I never really did I knew that at that time. That's what was keeping me
Saying I would go home at night. I would cry. I would look at the clubs. I wanted to be in
Does it remind you anybody Lee? Yeah, I would make notes the clubs I wanted to be in. Does it remind you of anybody, Lee?
Yeah.
I would make notes of when I'm gonna be there
and this better happen, you know.
And then I'd cry myself to sleep.
I didn't know, you know, I was losing control of that.
But the only thing, I remember Wednesdays,
I would drop her off.
And sometimes my ex-wife wouldn't show.
My wife's boyfriend would show
and I would
hand that child to her and
Guys, I don't know if you know what that feels like for people who know what that feels like
And I would turn around and before I get in the car tears will be rolling down my eyes
And I would always roll a joint
And leave it in the ashtray. I'd watched them take off
And then I'd take off to a different parking lot and I'd fucking smoke a joint
I'd cry a little bit. I listened to the pretenders maybe some black sabbath
And I'd go fucking on because I had two options. I could either go home and
cry get mad
Buy a gram of coke and go over that one in the morning and kick that fucking door done. I didn't want to do that
I'd rather go out talk to people and then get occupied. So comedy saved me a lot of fucking ways guys
Yeah, and I thank God
That's cuz I've been angry but I've never like that's that's something you could you would still be in jail for
No, should I just be getting out?
And there'd be nothing available to me except fucking a one-bedroom apartment in a basement under a basement
With Jews living next door to me that you know, I could just knock on the door. What are you doing?
Yeah, you bet. All right good to see you
Where you at this week Tarzan this week? I'm at the floodwater brewing company and

and Mad Max stealing gasoline and stabbing people

Next thing, you know, you're going Chinese weed wait for that Chinese weed such busted out into the streets and shit
That's gonna really fuck people up. They have Chinese weed. Yeah, they're buying all the farms across the United States
I heard that and those migrants that tiptoed their way to the fucking border because those Chinese motherfuckers didn't even walk with those Mexicans
They just flew over like one of those kung fu
The immigration people didn't see him no home of Honduras and the fucking Mexicans back I'm gonna fucking I'm getting minimum wage. I got a pension coming in three years. I'm gonna fucking guy

They sent a bunch of keys. They sent a bunch of keys. They sent a bunch of keys
They sent a bunch of keys. They sent a bunch of keys. They sent a bunch of keys Also, then every 10 minute what? They sound like eight and two got caught they like the Colombians with kilos they sent 22 keys they lose ten

They're gonna grow high-level we with nuclear shit and then plant Chinese apples

Next time you go to Chinatown,
you leave Chinatown, you're blown in the dark and shit.
You're fucking matched away from going.
It sounds like this is what you want them to do.
No.
You would love an apple with weed in it.
Listen, let me tell you something.
There's one good thing about reefing.
It lets you think in the future, you know what I'm saying?
And when you add a thousand milligrams,
1200 of mushrooms then,
you're way ahead of the game for a few days.
You're following me, you start thinking about shit.
Yeah, but you do that every day.
So you're like decades ahead at this point.
Nah, because I don't mind fuck myself every day
with that shit, because I lose my mind.
I finally figured out why everybody became a political nut
Why people were throwing cans and bottles of people, you know widely why because they watched that 24 four hours shit
24-hours a day
And yeah, that's programmed to make you go fucking zombo
You watch that shit more than six hours hours They start putting smoke to the TV speakers. It's like pedophile smoke, but a little bit more advanced. It just makes you fucking oh
Dude, it's and it's even more than 24 because at least CNN had commercials now that stuff is on social meet
Like there's a lot of political stuff on social media, but no when I would go on the road
Let's say you went to bed at 1. Mm-hmm. You got up at 3 in the fucking morning for you know, you can't sleep
It's hot in the room
You drink some water now. You can't can't fall back to sleep. You turn you turn the TV on
You know, these fucking times I turn the TV on at 435 in the morning and then before white people argue it
I'm like
dog
Who needs to shit?
Can you imagine waking up that every morning and sitting there with a cup of coffee and going?
You know you leave the house all fucking you know you ready you ready to do January 6 you ready to go
Jump the fence and start stabbing fucking everybody
Yeah, that's what happens I Stab and fucking everybody
Yeah happens That's how they get you all crazy and shit
They gave people too much information that we can't comprehend and it's all fucking wrong
And then we try to make a hypothesis and that's how you lose your mind
Right next thing, you know, you got a white jacket on. There's people surrounding you.
They got your shoelaces off.
Or you'll end up in jail.
Or both.
You know, it's not a good situation.
I don't wanna lose my mind.
I came close.
I came close.
I don't ever wanna be there again, dog.
Did it take you a while to come back
Yeah, it did
Yeah, it did
It was fucking crazily
I had no memory for a while and there was a lot of things it was the Xanax
the three thousand milligrams a day the anxiety
The weed, you know, two podcasts a week,
a theater a week, a lot of writing, a lot of process,
you know, it just stacked up one day.
And it was like, fuck, you saw, I couldn't, I love comedy.
I just went cold for seven months.
And then when I got on stage that first time
with Rich Voss and Florentine, I was like,
it ain't gonna work work it wasn't ready. It wasn't even I kept getting on stage and it's just the processing
was horrible
It was horrible. Talk me about a year and a half
Fuck I was talking about with like your ex-wife, but you think that was my ex-wife
Nobody I let me tell you let's be honest with each other
the ex-wife situation that anger
Started in about 93
And I'm not gonna lie to you it went till about 2000 or 2001
That was part of me getting fun here was losing a little bit anger and
When when were you the angriest like when were you going through the way you talked about earlier?
earlier? 96 was when the bottom fell out on me.
I could feel it.
I could feel I was arguing.
93 hours fucking hot.
In 93, I came home for maybe a year to do comedy, live with George. George was in his own world
and I got maybe into five altercations
and four of them were with friends, like friends.
So when I went home, I was like, something's not right.
And I taught, calmed myself down.
I got a job, I got into a comedy schedule and then within six months
She got my blood pressure back home
and that went
That went from 93
Christmas of
94
Christmas of 93 was not good
Christmas in 93 was not good.
It was not good, Lee, but the only thing that was taking me out of that tunnel
was that at that point, while I was going deep down,
my comedy was going up.
The only thing I could focus on at that time
was writing jokes and getting on stage.
Thank God.
Somebody else would have, trust me, there was a lot of nights
when I said, you know what, I'm going to go home, I'm going to get a gram of coke, a bottle of fat
tie, and I'm going to play Russian roulette. You know, but I couldn't, I was like, I can't let these
people win. So in hindsight, that anger that I had, I fueled it it And now I could tell you I knew what I was doing. No, I didn't know it
At one point all that anger. I had to do something with it. Yeah, you could hit the bag
Yeah, you can lift weights, but I it became my energy for comedy
But you kind of use it now because you like to get annoyed before you go on stage
But it all started then that's crazy. It was a certain night in 96
That somebody had a camera and I was like there were 16 people he put up
And I was like maybe number 14. I had maybe four dollars. I started the day with like $300.
Now, if you know anything about me on that time,
if I had $300,
that was equivalent to somebody having
fucking $8,000 today.
Right.
Like $300 at one time.
That was huge for me.
That was a gram of Coke, a a cheeseburger a new shirt, you know
And I got tangled up in my girlfriend and next thing you know, I had four bucks
She said I owe the 200 for a phone bill and then two hours later. She threw me out
So here I am at this fucking thing. I got four dollars. I got nowhere to sleep tonight I got to ask Josh wolf if I could sleep in this fucking trailer. What are the fuck he had at that time?
I got to ask Josh Wolf if I could sleep on this fucking trailer or whatever the fuck he had at that time.
And I was so hot that I went up on stage. And that's the first time I started firing.
Until then I was very punchline, boom, punchline, talk to the audience. That was the first time I started firing. And when I got off, some guy came up to me
and goes, I taped that.
And I had it for a long time, that tape.
Who knows what happened to it.
And were you doing jokes
or were you talking about what you were mad about?
I was talking about what I was mad about.
Fuck, okay.
And one of the jokes I got from that night
was a really corny joke. I said, you got a bunch of dollar bill. You sit in there, you can lap dances.
You're in love with her.
She's in love with you.
Then you run out of dollar bills.
That was one of the jokes from that night, which is, you know, stupid.
And there was something else I said that night that I took that.
And I said that for about a year.
I said, you know, I'm going to run out of bills.
I'm going to run out of bills. I'm going to run out of bills. I'm going to run out of bills. I'm going to run out of bills. That was one of the jokes from that night, which is, you know, stupid.
And there was something else I said that night that I took that. And I said that for about a year.
Oh, at that time.
That was the first time I had ever seen a woman with a tampon.
Even though I was married and I lived with a girl before,
this was the first woman I dated that will walk around the apartment and I'd be
sitting there high and a little string would be walking out of a monkey.
Right. And I would sit there every night. Like, what the fuck?
I never had the balls to ask because I didn't want to know, you know,
I was 30 at the time.
What the fuck? I never had the balls to ask because I didn't want to know.
You know, I was 30 at the time.
Wait, you had no idea what it was?
I knew what it was.
Like, I grew up on Kotex.
You know, like women had Kotex, and they talked about it.
Now this chick is walking around with a little sticker,
a little few, and I'd sit there every night.
Like, this is a joke here. and I never said it till that night I
Was so hot. I go this bitch walks around the fucking apartment with that little fuse sticking out
No, what a pull it or light it and then I go so I lit it
Hysteric that's a great joke. That was how hot I was two of those jokes. That was Felipe as far as his
Favorite joke when I moved to LA
If he get me a gig he go I'm giving you this gig fool
Gotta say pull it light it
Okay, and I go up there say the joke people laugh and he'd be like, yeah
Yeah
Come tomorrow night fool
and do that joke again.
You never do that joke anymore. That's a great joke. It's a 20
year old joke. Who cares? You wouldn't do a 20 year old joke.
Listen, think about a 33 year old man doing that joke. A man
with white hair that's losing his head that's got the fucking
you can't get away with that. You don't think you could rewrite it in a different way
Put it in something the anger is not there
Right now I understand I like I can picture you doing that like that night
But I'm just highly cuz that's crazy to think about like that's a great joke
I like just that line that imagery of doing that like you don't think you could put that into another joke
It's anywhere. I would use it. It's a lie. That's how I thought back then
That was the thought process back then, you know, I was more of a stoner this chick used to make me fucking laugh, you know
Yeah, just fucking great. It's crazy to think that you have so much material that I'll never get seen I
Got so much material that I don't remember
But none of it listen none of it was exceptional at that time
Even towards the end. Let's be honest. had mickey mouse material i sold it i told you
how i felt i told you the story and i told you who i am today and that's what they want to hear
you know at that time whatever now i go on stage i don't even remember a fucking story
did you know that the last this whole fucking time just like you were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like
You were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like
You were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like you were just like
You were just like you were just like you were just But it just seemed like you were just flowing Was like does it take you a long time to put a story together?
Testament or are you sure testicle testament?
You'd ever seen me do that. Oh, yeah
Every Wednesday or no bunch of you got to remember one thing testicle testament started as a
Foreman show everybody does 20 minutes apiece
Okay, so you're saying that's a good thing. I'm not saying you're not doing it Wednesday or no bunch of you got to remember one thing testicle testament started as a Foreman show everybody does 20 minutes apiece
Okay, so you wouldn't have that much time to get you to your story your story had to come out quickly that got me ready
That year we did that in the belly room with J more
Dice fucking Scott wolf. I mean I had everybody can go Glenn Plummer came through the actor from Sons of Anarchy
I mean I had so many guys come through and just tell a story don't don't worry about a laugh
Right. Tell me a story of what made you become a man
Don't tell me that you fucked a neighbor. No, nothing sexual
Tell me at what moment you knew Don't tell me that you fucked a neighbor. No, not sexual.
Tell me at what moment you knew you were a man.
When your dad told you, some guy told a story that his father and him didn't talk for four
years and that this graduation, his dad pulled up to him, got out of the car, gave him a
hug.
And he goes, you became a man.
You know, like he hadn't seen him.
I don't remember the story, but everybody in the room was crying.
Yeah. And that's what you want.
You want to portray that to me.
So that opening of your guts was exposed to me in 98, 99.
Nobody was doing it.
What am I going to do that joke in Jacksonville?
I'm going to talk about my dad beating up some fucking guy on the street.
By that time, I wasn't even focused on that
Those stories would come out once in a while
And what happened was I was doing a gig with this fucking hillbilly, right in 1995
This is a rough fucking story, right we got a couple minutes
I'm doing this fucking show with this hillbilly.
I got a call, the lady wants to use me,
but I'm on condition that I drive this goo-goots.
All right, he's gonna pay for the driver's license.
So I'm not gonna mention his name
and throw him under the bus, right?
So I'm living in Seattle it's
95 we do Friday Saturday Sunday I'd love to tell you where I don't even remember
it could have been the three cities the Tri-Cities they had the volcano room on
Thursday Friday Saturday but it wasn't it was that's why there was a Sunday and Bob So it could have been we did like the volcano room and then we did
Moscow, Idaho
Okay
You have a connection to Moscow, Idaho. I
Do yeah
What's that
What was the quarterback before Brady
Let's oh where do you go to college?
I've been guessing some more and I know I used to see him at the airport. I used to see him for some reason
There's there was a gig there that was booked by John Fox and it was
Wednesdays and Saturdays. I told you and they hold job to kill the comic to send them
Tequila with Tabasco in it. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's not good. But I fell for it one night my
Then I got like a speeding ticket on the way home, I don't know what I've happened for that ticket
I didn't pay it. So who the fuck anyway, allegedly, you know, you get in a car with somebody
and you're telling stories, right? Okay and
This guy was a nerd whatever and we start telling stories and I'm telling him my mother's bar
And I'm telling them what years they were and he goes the cops ever come by I go Yeah, there was a cop or two that came by and picked up an envelope
Well, you know, I told him that like on a Thursday then Friday We were talking about something else me growing up in North Bergen or something
On the way on Sunday
He goes do you mind if I go to the open mic tomorrow? No, you're the headliner
You can do whatever fuck you want. He goes. All right. I'll see you at the open mic. I I
Drop him off. I take the car back to the rental
He pays me cash for the rental
The next night the open mic this motherfucker has two beers
And at one point he comes over and he's like hey, man. I
Thought about your story about your mother's bar
Do you think you've really proud that they paid cops off? So you're part of the fucking I mean he just got
I mean, he just got Very Gentile on me, you know this guy never read a book. He never I can't even tell you where he's from because you're going
Yeah, he's a fucking bumpkin
So
You know he going off on me and I finally just told him shut the fuck up
You know and I left I'm like this but he made me feel bad like I was he's like
This is like the first time I started telling stories non-stage
Just to like you they'd say where you're from North Bergen
So I never see the guy again, I just moved to LA I got it I get there on a fucking Monday night
I
pull up on Fairfax
We take showers in the fucking trail of me and my girl we get dressed up to the nines
We go to Al Capulco on sunset not the first one not Triple E's Club
Right all the way around like we have to be the Silver Lake. That was the best one
They had enchiladas and fucking nobody would go there
They had enchiladas and fucking nobody would go there
Where was I so we go down and then we go let's go to the comedy store
So at that time I didn't know nobody you couldn't park in the back
So we had actually the park and it's walking out
Who's running out of the comedy store yelling and screaming at you?
that guy that guy
He's like fuck you. I don't need this place.
And Chewie threw his hat at him.
Like they ain't even had a hat,
like they had to push him out of there.
And I'm like, what's going on?
Like I had never been in the store, so I didn't say a word.
And Chewie's like, get the fuck out of here.
And he's like, fuck you, I'm a national adliner.
I'll never step foot in here and all this shit.
So that night I go to do the comedy store.
And I think I called Doug Stano when he goes,
meet me at the Coaching Horses.
So I go up to the Coaching Horses.
You know, I get a package.
This is the Coaching Horses was fucking rocking on Sunset.
And I'm with Doug and the girl and there's
a bunch of other comics, David Fulton, bunch
of other comics and we're laughing and shit.
And all of a sudden Stan Ho is like, no guys, you can't come over to my house tonight because
that comic is over there.
And somebody goes, why is he over there?
And he goes, I did a triple gig with him about seven years ago and said to him if he ever
needed a place to stay in LA
This guy took it literally
Oh no. He goes to the bathroom and showered in like three fucking days
He smelled so bad and what happened was he did Judy Brown's
competition
And when Judy became a big shot, she was casting
I think the Chess Parmentieri show.
No, no, she was casting the Jenny McCarthy show.
When I made the play.
She called me in to be Chas Parmentieri's driver on that.
Again, she told him, he went up to her and goes,
listen, if you ever need anything
for this Jenny McCarthy show, call me.
You don't have to pay me.
That's the last thing you tell a casting director or anybody.
But Judy makes him fly in on his own dime,
stay at Stan Hope's house where he hasn't showered
for three days and gets him a job as an extra
where he has to wear toga.
But guess what?
He got on the set, he didn't know how to act he started telling the director
how to shoot the scene
And finally something goes shut up and they gave him a stick of deodorant because he smelled so bad on the set
Holy shit. Oh my god. This was like a fucking like everybody knew about this. He was so embarrassed
Then they fired him from that not only did he get fired from the as an extra I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I'm sorry. I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry I'm sorry them down the stairs and they threw his fucking stupid hat at him. That's one of the craziest
things I've ever heard. That's like a fucking whatever called a buzz boy telling the chef how
to cook something in a restaurant. This was like six months at the Seattle incident. And everyone
saw I check on this poor bastard on Facebook. Is he still alive? Oh he's alive. He's you know
Bastard on Facebook is still alive. Oh, he's alive. He's he's you know a
sensation on the cruise ships playing the
He's got the fuck
That gives me like what do they call like secondhand anxiety or something like was he was he a drunk?
No, he was just such as mental health
He was just and he had a family and stuff. Yeah, and I could see what type of guy he was
He probably cut coupons, you know
Hey, don't don't knock it. No, no
His kids to like McDonald's, but three hamburgers for free. When we were on the road those three nights, he was very cheap.
He wouldn't want a tip.
He was something.
Oh, yeah.
Gross.
And every once in a while, you see those guys,
and you're like, that's not the guy I'm becoming.
That's why it's good to do those gigs.
Yeah.
Because they'll give you a full understanding
To what happens
Like how to behave?
How to behave and what happens if you don't pay attention?
You kind of check your ego at the door
Daily and see who the fuck you really are where you stand the totem pole
If I got on stage with you for the first time ever
at
the fourth wall, okay
in
I'm just being a sarcastic here. Okay. I don't even know what I'm trying to be
Let's say you and I will hit this we both met at an open mic at the fourth wall in 2014
Okay
And then for a few months you saw me there once a week I
Started hanging out with those dudes that shot a special for showtime, but they left the air conditioner on you know
all that type of shit and then
You don't see me for a while and one day
You're doing a paid gig and one of the three guys in the beginning is me
And I'm like hey Lee, how you doing? What's up, buddy? I'm like you showcasing too and you're like showcasing
Bitch, I'm preaching this motherfucker, you know, and I'm like, really? How'd you get that? You like I've been working. When I go mad, man,
I've been working too. It's a struggle. You know, you know what? Are you at the store?
And you're like, yeah. And you're like, do you think you'd give me a reference to the
store so I can get in there? And all of a sudden you go, yeah.
And all of a sudden I go up before you and it's not good.
Oh no.
And now you got to run out of there.
Give them like a fake number.
You know, it's like, it's like that chick with the iPads that wants to meet up
with you later on fake number. Do you have one set like regular like I could see you doing that just having the like one
Number you got a thing quick. Like when can you call me? When can you get me in there?
I'll talk to him and then you call him back like a week. Let me go you knew like 19 references. Oh
It's so sad, you know and people go to and you're're like how can you ask me to get you in the store
