Jesus Christ Almighty, what the fuck is that? What's what?
Not good
I'm back jacks. I'm gonna die wanted to like a fucking you know, oh, did you?
Yeah, it was good
How many how many my handful did he read tonight?
No handfuls no nothing. Okay, in break for like two weeks now,
I'm off the troops.
Oh, okay, I didn't know that.
I'm waiting for you to get back, baby boy.
I'm here right now.
All right, well you don't want me to show up tonight
to the fourth floor with what I got,
because you won't make it out to the end of Russia,
Shanniski, you know what I'm saying?
You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying?
Can you imagine going, I know you've probably never been to temple, but going to temple
on mushrooms seems like a nightmare.
What can you imagine?
Just go down there.
Go down there.
What do you say?
Whatever the fuck you say, Happy New Year.
Masha'Allah.
Yeah, nothing.
Masha'Allah. Happy New Year Yeah, I sure on the law
You sit there you fucking dog one of the best times I have is when I go to church stoned
I've never taken edibles because I never had the time, you know to warm up church is something that pops into my mind
I got a church
What do you mean? I'll warm up edibles are like three bites. What do you mean? Not even you usually eat it just like a pill. You need like an
hour warm up. Okay. I usually have Sundays at 7am. Who's gonna get up at six and pop
an edible? You've done it. I have to create this on a Sunday that ruins your whole day.
I got shit to do people to respond to I gotta answer the people so
But I do like four fucking five bond hits and by the time I get to church you walk in there
You're nice and settled. You don't even focus on what he's saying. I
It would be sad because I'd focus on the 12 stations of the cross. I get caught up and feel sentimental
but like because even a catholic
like the biggest problem i would have at temple is like they make you stand up but like a catholic
mass they make you kneel like i can't imagine kneeling on like a fucking walker in your pocket
give the guy phytolysis it's a fucking little workout i I'm gonna invent that, the church workout. Up, down,
high five, shake this guy's hand. Up, down.
Get up.
Did it piss you off?
Cause it pisses me off at temple.
Nah, you know, listen, I'm used to it.
I've been doing it since I was, you know,
up, down, up, down, you know.
It's a fucking nightmare.
But you know what, man, it was,
I still enjoy it. I don't wanna do it every week. I don't want to volunteer. I don't want to pass the basket around
I just want to go down there sit in church thinking about my life
Look around the 12 stations of the cross
And get the fuck out of there like I'm not big and I'm hanging and. And the church today has changed. Like especially in my area here,
it's Gentile Catholic Church.
There's really no feeling.
God forbid there's not a fucking priest
from another country, a third world nation
that you can't understand that way.
I'm sitting there fucking, what's he saying?
I don't know about here.
Lots of business.
Isn't he speak Latin anyways?
No, they speak English or whatever, but you got these guys, they get them right off the
fucking boat and I gotta be their guinea pig to learn English and shit.
I'm sitting there in the back like fucking, you know.
And then it's just not, I don't know, God forbid you don't have a gay singer in the
church.
Yeah.
You know, God forbid you don't have,
it's like, diversely hit the church, you know?
Oh, it bums me out about Temple.
Yeah, I just like the regular guitar.
I don't like it.
Yeah, the guitar, that's too early for me.
I want to hear about Led Zeppelin.
All right, Tico, here, take $10 and go to get a bagel.
I don't want to hear the fucking guitar at 8 in the morning.
I don't really want to hear no singing.
I don't mind the little hymns they sing, you know, in between.
You're not going to come at me with a full force fucking band
at 9 in the morning and make me get up,
because the first time I hear the tambourine
I'm done. There's two things I've always done if I see a tambourine or if I see a flute like I'm done
Like when I went to see general power and like 1980 once the flu came out me and my friends are like this
Don't need to sit here no more. You know what i'm saying? You just left
Yeah, I always used to leave I still leave, you know me
Have you ever left church like have you ever like walked out of service on service?
No, but i'll tell you the worst thing I ever did
Because I don't I never mentioned this in church. I never mentioned this on the church
When my daughter, not Mercy,
when my oldest daughter got baptized.
You know, we knew that my in-laws knew the church well,
and they knew the priest well.
And the priest was a cool motherfucker.
Like he just knew
That I was out of my mind
He worked, you know, he was very nice. He'd work with it and
See this so this had to be
1990 okay
So this is 34 years.
Now you know I'm fucking crazy now.
Could you imagine 1990?
Fresh out of jail.
People think a kid's gonna change me in a marriage
and I'm still fucking rough around the edges.
And I'll never forget.
My, the woman I married, her brother was just as out there as I was.
He wasn't a criminal.
He was a smart guy, but he went to work and that's the only thing he did right.
You know, and we got along.
We hit it off.
This is a guy who had a bong in his car and who always bought weed by the quarter pound.
So I was a fan of that motherfucker right off the bat.
And we were at the church, we're getting ready to baptize my daughter.
Everybody's fucking there.
And he goes, Hey man, I got to join us some fucking heavy duty weed.
And I'm like, are you fucking serious?
And he goes, yeah.
He goes, come on, follow me.
I know this church. Cause I knew it, but not as well as he did. And
we went downstairs in like a lobby and just sparked up a
fucking joint. Me and him right downstairs, no ventilation, no
nothing. We walked back upstairs. I was happy for like
two minutes, then I felt like a fucking idiot. First of
all, I got really fucking high. And then after we were hanging out, everybody was saying,
it smells like weed. And the steam that was coming out of my wife's seat is you couldn't
even fucking, it was just too much. It was just too fucking much. That's the worst thing
I've ever done. Like as far as I'm concerned, kidnapping,
mugging somebody, that's nothing in my world compared to smoking in the church. And I still
think about it. And I'm still like, what the fuck was I thinking? What the fuck was I thinking?
Did you like ask for forgiveness for it? I asked forgiveness for everything. You know,
that was one of the many
That's a cool part about kids all like that you can just ask for forgiveness
And if you like, you know work on it, you're forgiven. That's pretty cool
Yeah, but it just don't work like that. It just don't work like you know what? I'm gonna forgive my I'm gonna think God's gonna forgive me
I'm gonna go out and hit somebody else in the head. Honest the guy
What means is that you have to forgive yourself?
If you look into those words you have to forgive yourself first
And once you forgive yourself, then it's kind of easy for anybody else to forgive you
But I held myself, you know, I always punish myself
Really? Like
Yeah, you have to have personal punishment.
It's like, you're not going to have that anymore.
You know, like my, my bolder set.
Like I'm really ashamed of acting in Colorado and I go to Denver and I do the
shows and shit, but I won't trickle to Boulder or any of those places just
because I'm kind of ashamed, you know?
I get that, but it was so long ago. You don't feel like you've made amends for it?
Yes and no.
I could have done that in any place in the world, except in God's country.
I did it right there in God's country.
And it was God's country.
It was like putting a professional in a fucking high school basketball game. Right. You know, like, but you know
what, I've learned to live with it. I've forgiven myself to the
extreme to the extent that I could. Now I hope that someday
boulder forgives me, you know what I'm saying? I think besides
that, are you I had a great I know you know Connecticut
Connecticut was great. I had a fun
Like I've never had like a it wasn't even a heckle
It was just like this older lady was just drunk and was like talking to me
But I like and I told you on the phone like I I was just like I don't know if proud of myself is the right
Word or just like I was happy with like how I handled it because in the past I would just like, I don't know if proud of myself is the right word or just like, I was happy with like how I handled it.
Because in the past, I would have like either crumbled or like just tried to power through
it and still do the jokes and that wouldn't have worked.
And she had she got so drunk, dude.
And I was asking about this, she fell out of her chair.
Like I've never had to she crashed out of her chair and was still talking shit from
the floor.
It was one of the funniest things that I've ever experienced.
She was talking, I'm okay.
That show was wild.
That show, while she was talking shit, there was a 65, 70-year-old couple in the back,
and I want to ask you about this, just basically having sex.
They were making out and he was sitting behind her.
If they weren't making out, he was sitting behind her if they weren't making out
He was giving her a massage like I've never seen that in a comedy show before and it was like a 70 year old couple
You know man, that's funny you say that
because
This morning I went on Facebook. I posted like some shit in a video.
And I know like, you know, you don't look at stuff that has nothing to do with you really.
But for weeks, like for two weeks, I've been seeing these old women with bikinis on.
I'm like, what the fuck is this shit?
They're not old women.
They're like 50, but they look good.
You know, they look, you know, 55, maybe 60.
And today for the first time I go, what the fuck is this?
And it was like, why is a girl on a bikini telling me I got to read books?
That's what she was like, that's what Facebook posted about reading fucking books, that you
should read two books a week, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
I'm like, are you fucking crazy lady?
You're 60 years old.
Why are you in a bikini?
That's, I don't know, that had nothing to do with your story.
Number two, the oddest thing,
the oddest thing I heard the last couple of years
during the pandemic was that venereal diseases were up
in all folks' homes.
Yeah.
Dude, have you heard about the villages?
I think it's called.
It's there.
Well, fuck it.
No, I gotta be honest.
No.
Oh, dude, there's, and Joe, if you can find it in something quickly to pull it up, there's
a place called the villages in Florida.
It's a, it's a retirement community and it has like, I don't know if it's like the most,
but they, they're well known for having like a huge amount of STDs and they have something because they drive
around in golf carts is that they have different color loofahs for what kind of like sex stuff
they want to do.
It's like the STD capital of America and this is an old folks home.
It's well known that that's all there.
They go there to fuck. They go there.
And Joe, I don't know if you can scroll down if they have anything about the luffas, but
the luffas is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. They break it down by color. You're
single, you want people to watch, you want people to... I don't know, they might not
have it on this one, but it's just... I've heard that for a while that old folks homers are crazy
I'll tell you you know
I'm one of those guys since I'm a kid like I have a brother and him and I have been saying the same
Thing I'm saying we've been saying the same thing since we were fucking ten years old
I'm saying we've been saying the same thing since we were fucking 10 years old.
Look at this shit. Yeah. Lufa coat at Florida. Can you scroll?
Guarantee those people doing drugs. Oh yeah. Oh, there we go.
Can you zoom in further Joe? Cause it just has all the colors right there.
If you, yeah, I couldn't give me one so I'll find it
But yeah, so what was it? What would have you and your brother been saying?
When we were kids every time like a lady won't buy like a weird-looking ass
We'd always go can you imagine where ass smells like I mean we've been saying this to each other
I just saw him in Delaware 60 years old
We still saw some lady with sandals on,
the weird looking ass.
And he looked at me out of the corners of the eyes like,
can you imagine what her ass smells like?
You know, and then you see like, you ever go to a,
I don't wanna talk about this negatively,
but if you look at your parents,
you look at your parents, say your dad's mild-mannered,
your mom's got the fucking house dress on but a hair up and curlers
she ain't looking for no dick and
He ain't looking for no ass. You don't say he's home at five or one. He's on the chair
He don't really listen to your mom. He passes out at seven after dinner
But you look at them from time to time you're like
You think mom and dad are still you like?
from time to time and you're like, you think mom and dad are still, you're like, nah.
Thankfully my parents aren't together,
but I had thought about that,
but it's creepy to think about, it's the worst.
But when I was a kid, I'd go to people's houses
to eat dinner and shit, I look at the parents,
and I'd always play a game in my head,
do you think he's still fucking?
And I'm like, I don't know. I just don't know.
But did you ever tell your friends you were thinking about that?
They must have hated that game.
No, no, I never told anybody about that game.
Do you think he's fucking?
It's like when you see, you know, listen, love is weird.
But number one, you told me about it on the phone.
And you didn't say that they were basically having like light sex.
You were saying they were making out.
I'm 61 years old.
I got a chip toot.
I got, you know, I don't want to make out with nobody at this age.
No.
Like I'll make out with my wife at the time.
I don't even want to do that no more.
Like I'm past that fucking stage.
Now we're just getting the fucking, you want to make out?
I don't know.
Like, you know, it's just so it's so weird you know I'm making out with some 70 year old
lady and she loses a tooth I'm done I spit it out I'm going home I'm not even dropping
her off I don't know how she gets dropped off from Florida at that fucking Wonderland
fucking condom factory down there where they get crabs this shit, you know
But now I'm 61 and I can be honest by the year. I
Get sexual, you know, I can't hold up like everybody else. You know, I'm saying
Do I end up for outside monkey? No, because I know I can't do nothing with it. There's nothing I'm gonna do
It's just gonna be an embarrassment situation for me embarrassing
So what happened like like you just it was not gonna work the same. I need to get a heart attack
Is that what you're worried about
I'm worried about a lot of things, you know, just 10,000 things.
First of all, I'm married, but what if I'd have a, I wouldn't even know where to start.
I wouldn't even know what to talk to them about.
Listen, man, ever since I stopped doing drugs, I've lost that angle of my life.
I thought angle disappeared like that, you know, getting in the mood and fucking bang
one out in the bathroom.
Those days are long gone.
I'm going on 17 years.
I haven't been fucking, you know, the blow makes you crazy, you know, and it just, but
now it's like, if I do it, it's okay.
It ain't like, you know, how it used to be when I was crazy and I had big eyes and my
dick was hard.
I'd be walking around with a bottle of whiskey.
Yeah.
I was left to see you say that to a woman.
Yeah.
Well, you know, obviously I'm not talking about your wife, but like, do you, do
your fantasies change when you get older?
Do you think?
I have no fantasies.
Nothing.
Cause you have a fan of things that you could do.
They ain't much more I could do no more.
Do you know what I'm saying?
Like you have a fantasy,
like I'm gonna score 70 points in the game.
I'm gonna work 52 weeks in a year.
But you know, you got it.
I know I don't got it.
Like, you know, you have to come to terms with yourself.
Unless I shoot a bunch of Viagra,
you know, unless I take some blue chew,
like have it on me all day long,
look at pornographic materials,
put a feather in my pants or like a rock in my shoe
that makes one of the Chinese put a rock in their shoe
or whatever they do.
I don't know.
I don't know, but that ship sailed those days like that.
I don't, sometimes I watch like a movie and they have like a sex scene and I
get embarrassed now. Oh, I get embarrassed. I get embarrassed. And then it's also like, it's crazy.
Like I know you never really did online dating, which I think would be hysterical to see you try
to online date. But it's like they're like people like they have sexual very quickly now like they like
you like they're like people women tell me that like guys will just send them messages that are
like oh what i would do to your tits like all like all they're like they just open up with craziness
and i have i don't have any idea how they would do that
when i was young crazy and on the road yeah yeah You gotta tell somebody you gotta sell, you know, you're trying to sell your game Jack. You're not gonna sell it by telling
I went to Harvard and I have a
Everybody went to Harvard and got a boat bitch. You got a time list. I got a ten-foot dick and I could choke myself with it
And I guess it'll work with somebody I don't get that many men walk away right like a girl
Walked up to you said I got orgasm and it comes out of my ears
You either have another drink and go
Let's get out of here
Or you go you have another drink you pick up your drink and move ten down at least you know where you stand
Yeah, oh and that's the hardest part is knowing where you stand in any of this shit, but it's one of my dear friends growing up
And I'm talking about early on
17 18 19
20 21
Good-looking dude
Just wouldn't say much.
I mean, women would crawl to him and he wouldn't, you know,
his conversations would be awkward.
But when he did meet some,
I remember being down the shore for the one time,
like on the beach and him picking up a girl
and taking her on to the fucking boardwalk
and whatever the fuck they did
And he came back and I go what what is he doing?
How does he do this do does he sing him a lot letter?
That's one of those he do various things. I've never hit on a woman in the wild like I've never
beach Talk this guy was a professional like this, but I noticed he only hit on women when he was drinking because he was loose.
And when he did coke, forget it.
He mixed those two, he would be on fire, but he'd take it to the next level.
He'd go up to women and go, what are you doing with this fuck guy?
And he'd take out a coke rock, your pussy out with a coke rock.
And at first I looked at it and I was like that.
It's just crazy. Then I tried it.
Jesus Christ. Did you get more confidence with coke and drinking?
Yeah. That's what I'm trying to say.
When I was snorting coke and drinking,
my sexual game was,
listen, I've been with my wife for 24
years.
So yeah, 15, our top 15 wedding anniversary.
And we'll be together 24 years and 25 years in July.
That's awesome.
25 years.
So it is what it is.
But you learn about yourself as you get older and
You know, it's really weird that I thought by now and have complete ed
and I'd have to get like an indian guy with a flute to play and
And somebody to light my heels on fire to get a heart on I have to eat like fish
No, it's amazing. Sometimes
I wake up in the middle of the night, I got a baseball bat.
I'm like Aaron Judge.
I got to pee out of that motherfucker.
I got to hang it on the sink a few times.
I mean, I'm like, there ain't nobody around.

What good is it?

["The Last Supper"]
Oh
Shit 10 824 nice combination all twos
Yeah, who the fuck you think you're dealing with Joey bananas I live for these type of days I'm in the jackpot today Jack
Ten eight twenty four. What about, 10? Is that better?
10, 10, 24, 25, 24, yeah.
I shot one of the worst pieces of work
I ever put out there was 10, 10, 2010.
Oh no.
You remember that or you weren't around for that?
No.
No, that was right before I met you.
I was pretty much out of comedy okay just doing it
skipping you know skipping jive type comedy and I do a podcast and I talk about mugging a hooker
and the next thing I know fucking all hell breaks loose people coming to see me and after about a
month he's like listen let's put something together. Let's do 101010. It's a good
date. So we did it at Sal's, I think, who Sal and it was a
braille. And I'll never forget how bad I felt after that show.
Like I was really bad stand up at that time.
Not as bad as now, but just something was not working.
And I started rocking and rolling, but I really wasn't prepared.
And I told you, I went to Columbus, I hit a bag of dicks, I didn't go back for like
16 months.
And that scared the shit out of me.
I always thought it was because I bombed,
they closed it down, the fixer or something like that.
Oh, okay.
But yeah, I did a horrible job that night.
Like just, I think when your wife says something to you,
you're not through. Oh no.
No, we spoke about it that night and she's like,
you weren't, you weren't Comedy Store, she said to me. And I'm like, you're right. There's nothing I could do. I didn't go back to the store till maybe four years later.
Oh, yeah.
No, and it's like, it kind of reminded me like what happened this weekend.
Like, you know, you maybe I don't know what was going on in September or August of that
year, but maybe do you think you weren't working as hard at it?
You said you were almost out of comedy.
I was.
I was.
I was.
I was. of comedy. I
Don't know what I was doing who the fuck knows what I was clean
And I was living in the valley. I was living on the street of death where I met gray and
I just wasn't getting on stage like I was.
I was used to getting on stage 30 times a month.
Nine times, six at the haha and a week in the month with Joe.
So my game wasn't really tight, you know, and I remember feeling bad about it and
hitting the notebook and, you know, trying to really learn how to help.
And then I started going to the Irvine Improv.
Right.
That's where I got to learn how to headline.
And not at the store, because you're doing 15 minute sets.
Right.
You can go to the store.
This was the bad thing about the store,
because you might go to the store
and see that dude's best 15 minutes.
Then when he comes to your hometown,
he shows up with an hour in the last hour, the the last 30 minutes you want to put a bullet in your head
you're like well i saw him at the store because they're only doing 15 minutes the store is great
for a lot of things but it's not great for longevity i don't know i don't know what you're doing
i'm sorry i I I'm sorry
I don't think people understand like going from like 15 or 20 to 45 an hour is a big jump
So it only do 15 at the store
It's a big jump when you look at it
And it's a
Big jump when you're watching it
But it's so weird how comics will add five minutes
of junk to have that time.
And it's so hurtful for you.
I'd rather you say you're a feature and stretch.
Right.
You know, they want you to do 20 as a feature now.
When I was a feature, they wanted you to do 30.
So I would just do 35.
37. You know, the headline, I was going do 35, 37.
You know, the headline, I was gonna do two hours.
You don't give a fuck about my extra,
if I run the light by 10, I'd ask them,
you mind if I do an extra five?
I'm trying something, yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'm back here fucking them, you know.
In Miami, they don't give a fuck what you do.
They're back there looking at girls.
You know, some places, they're small,
you're in the green room, you're dying to get on stage. I understand so
That was the differences and that's a lot of people don't understand that they really don't know
When you go to the comedy store, you see somebody's best 18 minutes
And I you could you can do 18 minutes and you could start with another 20 and another 20
For me, it worked better when I was stretching,
when you somebody highs you in a bar and you take a hundred dollars less
and go, can I do an hour? And you just battle through it. It doesn't matter.
Those people are drunk. They're not going to like the other.
They're not going to remember you won't wear the.
And there's like if you're in a bar show, you know what I'm saying?
But there's clubs that you could you know the ice house
I never went up there material
That is mind-blowing to me you were there with me. I know
Those little satinite things that have three things on a piece of paper and we do an hour because I was used to it
If I do that now, oh
You're gonna throw tomatoes at me after 20. Oh
You know, but you would definitely you'd figure it out
But I was thinking about because you said something on the phone that like kind of like you said like I bet you're gonna
Do like 20 weeks this year. I went and looked I went back to my calendar
If I don't add anything and I have a couple weeks available if I don't add anything
I'm gonna do 32 weeks on the road like not even like local shows like 32 and I was like wow
That's fucking cool. And that's more than I want. I got my goal was to hit 20 this year. I did very impressive
I love so happy. That's how you and will people don't people will you know working in broad bitch
I'm working Harry's bar and grill. They give me four shows
Give me a cheeseburger before every show. There's no judgment. I could try a new fucking 15 minutes a night
There's no agents there, you know
Don't this is what I told you I hit on the triple runs. I hit on the fucking Michigan runs
I hit on the Oklahoma The Wyoming runs I hid I fucking hidden perfectly, you know, I
hit perfect
purposely, yeah
What's that it was perfect it was a good idea it's perfect
The problem is people have the patience
Now you you started in Boston.
Mm-hmm. That's a bigger market. I started in Denver. You started in Boston. That's a way f-
Oh, my market was different. Like, I-
Every once in a while, Wyoming comes to my mind. Like, I did fucking comedy in Wyoming.
In a fucking barn. And there'd be 400 people there. Wyoming, in a fucking barn.
And there'd be 400 people there.
Yeah, they're my favorites.
Right, with hay on the side and chairs
and they were selling beers and they'd do,
they would raffle shit for the church.
This is a community comedy show.
And I'd go up there and be a little raunchy
from time to time and they took the ride with me.
I wasn't fucking, I wasn't looking to be Robin Williams. I was just looking to do time.
And a place wouldn't fucking come back to haunt me.
Yeah. And even not even more like they wouldn't come back to haunt you.
I mean, yeah, if you bomb for an hour, they're not going to be happy about it.
But like those shows in Barnes or like in the middle of nowhere, they're just so happy to be there. Like I love those
shows.
I remember doing a show towards the Canadian border. Okay. In the war in Wisconsin. I got
to tell you something, Lee, the half hour, the last half hour before the gig, like we
were supposed to be there at eight,
and it must've been about 5.30,
and we ate something and said, you know,
just in those days there wasn't no miles to the next,
to your gig, there wasn't no waves, you know.
And I'll never forget like miscalculating.
And the last, and I'm not gonna leave,
the last 45 minutes before this town, there was nothing.
In fact, there was nothing that there was fake deer.
They put like plastic deer up to make it look like
there was a civilization out there.
There was nothing, Lee.
When we got to the hotel, it was like a fucking a civilization out there. There was nothing like, when we got to the hotel,
it was like a fucking party in that town.
You thought you went to Studio 54,
they thought we were celebrities.
What movies have you been in?
None, none, none, none.
We saw you in movies like, oh fuck.
But I don't know, I enjoyed those as much as I enjoyed
doing spots at the store.
And I still think about those sets. Oh yeah, well, it went part the store and I still think about those sets.
Oh yeah well I still think about those sets from the feeling
because you weren't playing for money you were playing to be funny.
Two big differences when you're playing for money and when you're playing to be funny
it's two big differences so it's kind of fun because you don't give a when you're playing to be funny it's two big differences. So it's kind of
fun because you don't give a fuck. You're just looking to go to a show to see some woman fall
out of a chair and fucking puke and then the couple in the back to swap and spit. I'm you know
I still can't get over they were fucking he was he was as creepy as can be giving him a massage.
I still can't get over they were fucking he was he was as creepy as could be giving her a massage. Oh
Giving and I do I'm not a comic again I almost never like call anybody out
Like I've made that mistake a couple of times like if someone was sleep and people don't usually find it funny
It's like I didn't call him out
But then he like he just didn't heckle but he talked right after the woman fell out of the chair
Like they were going crazy and he asked me a question just like asked me like a question about one of my jokes and I was like you know what fuck it and I was like I
wasn't gonna bring this up but you guys have basically been fucking the whole show and like
the crowd went nuts and then he I thought I was worried he was gonna be upset he said he said
you should see what's happening underneath the table and like they do they were going nuts
they were it was so fun but it's dude in that show at both shows Friday and Saturday a lot of people came out Saturday, which was awesome
but like that show was like as
crazy as it was like I did 15 minutes on nothing just on what was happening in front of me and just
Like it was so it was there was so much energy and I'm not encouraging people
to to heckle at all.
It doesn't help the show at all.
But in those like when I'm in the side room of a restaurant like it's just it's not going
to be there if I didn't prove.
No it's not and you have to go up there thinking like that.
It's like when I go to the girls softball games and they got a ref with a missing foot
And the other guys, you know got his hat on sideways and he's blowing a whistle
one of those things that you blow with the spender and going around they get mad cuz
Cuz he missed a call my guys
These guys well, yeah, these aren't major league umpire you see right just
Well, you know, these aren't major league umpire. You see right just
We just hit good fucking time. You know saying kids don't get hurt. We're just having a good time, you know, they're making 20 bucks I
Could tell Friday night
All together now, how long have you been doing comedy eight years? It'll be seven in November
Okay Starting now you're gonna get breakthroughs Years? It'll be seven in November.
Okay.
Starting now, you're gonna get breakthroughs. Anybody who's doing comedy in the fifth, sixth, seventh year,
you know, maybe your advance is lead,
maybe you're not as far along as lead, maybe whatever.
Remember one thing,
you're gonna have good nights and bad nights. But
I've said this once and I'll say this again. Every 60 to 90 days, you're gonna notice such
an improvement of yourself on stage. Oh, you're gonna notice such an improvement of yourself
on stage. Something's gonna to happen and you're going
to handle it correctly. And that my friend, and I can tell you right now because you're going to
answer me, you could eat 20 mushrooms and not have the feeling you get when you get off stage and
you realize as a comedian that you've gotten to the next level. For me, it was,
and you've gotten to the next level. For me, it was,
I gotta say guys, it was,
Jesus, maybe November of 98.
Let's just go with November of 98.
I did a show in the Belly Room.
And guys, and Lee, you've heard all my junkie stories.
Right.
I had coke in my pocket when I went in that stage that night
in the belly room.
Not only did I blow myself out of the water,
but what I did that night,
I also realized I did like an hour and 35.
And it was like 10 minutes I had done before.
The rest was just from my heart and whatever.
And I'll never forget that night giving that coke away because I couldn't get over what
I had done on stage.
Oh, yeah.
And I would imagine drugs and gambling might be similar, but like doing well in standup
is like winning is better than winning in gambling,
but like bombing and standup is worse than losing and gambling, at least for me.
Like they're very similar to me.
But but after 10 years, you realize that every bomb made you better.
And remember, one of those bombs would have taken somebody down.
Oh, yeah.
They don't call them bombs because they're a good feeling.
Right.
But after a while you just get used to them.
You just start getting used to them
and used to them and used to them.
And one day something else happens
and man, that's why I tell people don't quit
until the miracle happens.
Don't give up on a miracle.
Right. Oh no.
We all have a chance to hit a miracle
right I mean it's just any day we could bump into anything but we're not
involved we'll never get that miracle that's what people never really fucking
understand everybody wants to sit at home and make videos and think that you
know fucking the bluebirds gonna knock on that door with a fucking check don't work that way No, those bombings or those bombings
They pay you a lot of money for those bombings later on in your career when you stick with it
Okay, cuz
You know when you stick
I'm sorry. I thought you were continuing. I'm sorry. Are you light on the edibles again? No, I'm not light on the edibles. I'm but I'm listen. I got the I don't even these
mushrooms. These African mushrooms are so strong, but I'm on the premises. I got these
in a safe at my buddy's house because you have to keep it a certain temperature like
crowd therapy to keep it a certain temperature,
like crowd therapy to keep the fucking enzymes awake or whatever the fuck it is in there.
So you better drink a lot of water, Cockly, because it's coming for you.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm working on it.
But like that was like you said, like the feeling you get like when like you do well,
because I had been like I've been doing okay.
I've been doing pretty well this year,
but the feeling when you get off stage
and you know you could have handled
the situation differently, it's like a bummer.
It's like, it really, it really will bum me out.
But like getting off stage and being like,
oh, I handled that the way I was supposed to.
Like that, that's a new feeling.
Well, yeah.
And Lee, listen man, you and I both know the worst feeling, there's two
worst feelings, is bombing and trying to realize what you did wrong and shitting the bed in
an audition and trying to realize what you did wrong.
And they're like, thank you for coming.
You don't want me to read again?
No, no, no, it's okay. That was, that was great. Thank you, Mr. thank you for coming. You don't want me to read again? No, no, no, it's okay.
That was great.
Thank you, Mr. Diaz for coming.
And you're like, they might call me back.
And also you don't hear from them forever.
Never.
Never, what, forever?
But you think about what did I do?
How did I break it down?
And those are the things that build strength.
It's like if I scrape your elbow against a wall,
eventually every night the
scab is going to break and get tougher and tougher and tougher and tougher. And after six years of me
banging your head off a wall, you won't have that scab no more. You won't breathe. You won't bleed
no more. You see what I'm saying? I don't think I'll do a lot of things after six years of getting
my head banging against the wall. Well, whatever.
You get what I'm trying to say to you.
Yeah, of course.
Sometimes bombing is...
And listen, it's the truth.
Bombing is so much way better than doing fantastic all the time.
I took a measure fantastic all the time. I Took an immeasurable amount of bombs. I was like I was like fucking Lebanon. I was taking bombs
I
Was taking bombs just for fucking Christ's sake
Some weeks I was just taking bombs for Christ's sake dog and I would sit there and go like I told
you how many times I cried dog I don't cry about anything I would cry about bombing and
cry not really about bombing but now this is my last fucking hope in this world like
I would sit there at night with that stupid newspaper open, the comedy JFL, whatever it was called out of San Francisco.
And I would write the clubs out on it.
And then I would start ripping the page like a child.
You ever see Denzel Washington, man on fire,
when he got really drunk at night
and he was playing with the gun and all that.
And he would talk to himself.
That was me. When I saw that in a drug addict type of way, that was me at night because I knew
this was my only fucking hope out of that fucking dingy apartment. That's how I looked
at it. That's how I looked at it. That's how I looked at it.
After 95, I had a little bit more confidence on my, I could do this.
But my goals weren't to meet Joe Rogan.
My goals were to just stay on the road and live like the catcher from Major League.
Yeah, that's the dream.
That was the dream. I didn't care about movies or TV.
I just want to live in a hotel, eat, meet women,
play the ukulele at night with sandals on,
snort coke, and die on the road.
I had nothing else going on.
I had nothing on. You look at your mentality then.
Now I look at all those things I just said to you. Like, you
know, fucking playing the banjo and hanging out with women and drinking tequila. I look
at all that stuff like that stuff will kill me first. But back then, when you're 30.
That's exactly what you're looking for.
Yeah, what the fuck? And then eventually you meet somebody and they turn you onto this and you get turned onto this
Next thing, you know, you're competing the seattle comedy competition
And you
What the fuck am I doing?
I was just at a bar two weeks ago
Cracking jokes and I came in third tonight
Okay
It's the best part about it. It's like the one of the few things and there are
people like I'm one of them who have like benefit from like you know things to get shows they
shouldn't they might not necessarily get but like on a talent level all every comic starts out at
the same place like it's very even. Very even. Very even and there's people that dog their sleepers
So many sleeper cells
You're gonna go to a town one time
with Josh wolf
And you're gonna headline Wednesday night, okay
Some clubs gonna call you one of these days and go. Hey man
Don't say nothing somebody's coming in
Thursday Friday Saturday, but they don't want to do a late shows
Do you mind headlining Wednesday?
Featuring for him Thursday Friday Saturday and then headlining the late shows
hell, you know
and you're like, yeah, why not?
And there was a point I was trying to make here, that Wednesday show, you know, like,
I don't even know what I was trying to say to you.
I think those fucking hash edibles hit me already and shit, you know what I'm saying?
About how it's a level playing field
Yeah, you go in there on a fucking Wednesday night and your headlining and you eat a bag of dicks now You're in that Thursday and you're fucking banging it out with one of the best headliners in the country
That's home to visit his fucking grandmother, and he just wants to do the early show and pick up some cash while he's there
And then that night you're headlining him, but I really forgot the point I was gonna make I'm sorry about that
That's okay. It happened. It happens to me all the time. Yeah, but you didn't need fucking eight thousand milligrams tonight
No, no one does eat eight thousand milligrams. I had a bag of these
Creighton gummies, it's THC but But he calls that, it's not Creighton,
that shit that people are dying of the Chinese plant.
The hash infused edibles, the THC, not bad.
I ate them yesterday, I was like, yeah, baby.
I finally found something, but I'd eat the whole bag.
Which is five hundred kilograms.
So today I helped him to six hundred and eight pre or four fucking ABXs.
I gotta get ready, you know what I'm saying?
How do you do that?
I have no idea how that works.
I just do it, it's just another day.
It's just another day, you know what I'm saying?
It's just another day that you gotta get up and train
some days you hit it hard.
So Doug, let me tell you something.
You have no idea what I have been through the last week because I don't want to bring
you down on the phone.
Why?
Because I'm not that type of dude.
So fucking, I've had this thing in my ear since God knows when.
I went to two different doctors,
cream, the one lady looked at it,
there's something in there,
we're gonna give you something that'll come out.
That went on for fucking six months,
I'm sitting there waiting.
So I ran out of cream, the whole thing,
I just keep a bandaid on it to dry it out,
to see when this thing's gonna fall out.
I think last Thursday I wake up,
I go to kiss my daughter, she's like, dad, there's something
sticking out of your ear.
And I'm like, oh, fuck.
So I call my wife and go take a look at this thing.
And it was just like a whitehead that wasn't really a whitehead.
So she just detected the tweezers when she pulled.
Guys, you thought I got shot.
Fuck.
But I got shot.
Fuck. You thought I got shot.
I still remember being over a sink
and the blood was dripping
different parts of the fucking sink.
It was unreal.
It was a boil with a thing sticking out of it.
I mean, she pulled out what she could
and it was not good-looking
But I mean it was I ruined two shirts that day and just wouldn't stop bleeding wouldn't stop believe
There's a sweatshirt and the t-shirt had underneath and do you have to like bring it?
Do you have to go to the doctor is that what happened this week? So I we make the subscription. I picked it up late Friday and I put it on there
And Friday was doing better Saturday was doing better put some a cura crown on there old school
And I don't look the vitamin C so I wouldn't get an infection
And I fucking Sunday it was killing me.
So this morning I got up.
But no last night before I went to bed, I go honey you got to look at this fucking thing
and she's like Joey we just got to take them to the hospital.
I go forget the hospital.
Let's go to urgent care.
So I went this morning.
I got up this morning right in early.
I was like the third guy there.
Holy shit. This morning they actually up this morning, right in early. I was like the third guy there. Holy shit.
This morning, they actually shot me with a needle in there.
No.
I haven't seen Jesus in a long time,
but I saw him this morning.
That's why I was a little discombobulated this morning.
But I went in at 8 45.
I sat there for like 25 minutes. They called me in there and the lady looked at it,
cleaned it, did a bunch of stuff. She was listening. There's a dermatologist up there. Let me get you
in there. I said, all right. So 12 50. She got me in there. I left there, came home,
did my morning stretch, did a video for YouTube,
which I think they made it childproof
because I smoked on it.
I didn't show myself smoking, I just showed the smoke.
Oh, damn, man.
So, then I caught a quick half hour at the boxing gym.
I went down there, he laid it into me today.
I was like fucking dead when I left there.
I came, shaved my monkey, showered
and went right back to the doctor at 1250. She fucking took one look at it and she goes,
all right, lay down. And she goes, what I'm going to do is put some cocaine on it and
I'm going to fucking shoot it. And then we're going to fucking scrape it and take out all that stuff so she's gonna
send it in to see if it's skin cancer but when she pricked it with the fucking needle like
it was painful but she had to take the needle out because the amount of blood that came her way
it was fucking insane she had to keep me there For like 30 minutes after that. It was insane. I got home. I went to pickle tiring
I got myself a chicken noodle soup
And I opened turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes on the side for lunch
And I was home by 2 45 tip-top Magoo
Ready to pick up my daughter ready for it when the bus dropped her off
but I like
Why don't you because I mean I don't feel I don't feel like you can't tell me things
But like why don't you tell people like that shit's going on?
Because we wanted to put on Facebook and Twitter that my ears fucked up
Yeah, no, not Facebook, but you could tell your friends.
Hold on. Somebody died.
Let me look up a picture from 1980.
I was a kid. He gave me an autograph.
Let me post it up so everybody knows he was my buddy.
You know, you really don't post that stuff.
No, it's so creepy when people do that.
It's it's a different world on Instagram. It's like shit. We don't need to know
There's a thousand things. I want to know about you that shit. I don't give a fuck you want to show me your titties
God this Facebook knock yourself out
But if you're gonna tell me by your toe that you're out of commission say a prayer for my cousin. He jumped out of a helicopter
you
What am I a Swami I can't help you.
But what about, have you seen when people post,
like pictures from the hospital room
and they're like, send me some prayers
or give me some thoughts, who, how can he,
why would you go to the hospital room
and take out your phone to take a picture?
If I send you, if I put a picture on Facebook,
the captain's gonna be be send me an Asian nurse
with sticky hands, you know what I'm saying?
I have an intravenous in my neck.
In your neck, holy shit.
We gotta get the good stuff.
We ain't getting that Billy Goats stuff
they give you from fuckhead, you know.
I was like, well, does he talk to a nurse and be like, I don't want the Billy Goat stuff?
Do you talk to nurses like that?
I tell them the truth.
Today I told her, listen,
before you put that needle in my arm,
I just want to tell you something.
But she took my blood pressure when I walked in there
and I'm like, listen, relax.
I just cut off like 50, you won't take my blood pressure.
I told her, it's our first date, give me 10 minutes.
And then she put it on and she laughed.
And then it went down to like fucking,
listen dog, I have a good time in my life.
I like, I go to this place to eat, it's dynamite.
I'm not even gonna blow up the spot.
I love the food there.
And I like going there when it's quiet,
but it's so good from time to time.
I gotta go in there on a Saturday and bust out.
But every Saturday I go there,
I have a little Mexican bartender that takes Cammy.
He's moving back down to Pococo.
He's like a co-headliner.
He's like a busboy slash bartender.
I got him on the small 20 program in there.
But every time I go on there is a girl
that's very attractive, young, you know, but very quiet.
And the first two times I seen a bartender,
I'm like, I don't know how that girl makes money.
Why?
She doesn't smile.
Oh yeah.
If she smiled, she would.
So finally, I went there this weekend
and a buddy of mine goes in there
to eat the bartender from Osteria Joe.
Okay.
A bro that he comes in and he goes,
yeah, I'm off today.
I came down. I always
come down there my day off. I'm like, oh, fuck. The lunch special is great. And I go,
Joe, that girl never smiles. And he goes, I know it kills me too. And I look at her
and also she comes back and and at the end I go to pay my check. And I go give him a
glass of wine before I leave and I'll pay for that cash
So when she went away to get it because she was in my way to she was my buddy's way to that
I'm with fucking Ricky Ricardo from Macabuco
myself
When I
Say well watch and she comes back and she's got beautiful nails. I got nails with money.
I go, can I ask you a question?
She goes, what? I go, where do you get your nails done?
And she goes, perfect.
And why do you ask?
You know, because when I go on transmission, I want the best,
baddest fucking nails there are.
You know what I'm saying? I'm thinking of switching.
And she started laughing.
Oh, we. Oh, shit.
She smiled. Yeah, you got it. I love you. Yeah. I tipped that

I've lived my life.
I'm very happy betting fucking $20, $10.
Very happy.
I would've won.
I still get excited.
Because I only bet like 10 bucks on a chiro
and he's hitting home runs like they're fucking yum yums
on a Japanese street.
Speaking of yum yums, dog, let me tell you
what's going on with Uncle Joey lately.
So about a month ago, maybe about six weeks ago,
I took my daughter to a wah-wah with her girlfriends
for something after a softball game.
And I noticed they had blow pops.
Okay. Without the blow pop.
Because sometimes you get the blow pop and it's a good cherry one, but it's old and you
got to break a tooth to get to the fucking gum.
I'm too old to be playing mystery with the fucking, the lollipop and biting into that
shit.
Right.
I went to Wawa one day and they got like a 10 pack of the gums that are inside all the flavors
So watermelon really great strawberry. Yeah, I have the middle man
So I go in there every once a week and I buy one or two
And then I eat a whole pack and I spit it out on the fucking road, but I love it
And then I started the one night. I went to get like three packs and I goes hey, man
You've been coming in here a lot for those things. I'm like
busted
The worst so I had to start going in different wall was to get my little
The one retarded cook kept you Joey. Are you Joey? Are you Joe? He wouldn't stop. He wouldn't fucking stop the one down
With Joey Diaz being here buying bubble gum. He goes, no, okay then, I'm not Joey Dears.
And I walked out.
How often are you getting gum?
That's the worst when they recognize you.
I had that habit of jacking the box.
It's the fucking worst.
And then they got right back to me because I had a tariff up there.
If anybody sees me at a fast food restaurant, go to a reefer store store pick up fucking ten dollars worth of wheat. So everybody was ratting you out
I saw love to rat me out
Everyone else is snitches get stitches everyone loves to rat me out to Joe people rat me out for stuff
I haven't done the funny thing was that they put on an Arab disguise to go to Subway sandwich. I was hungry. I
Was hungry. It was a fine. Oh... Dude, I had someone tell me recently,
and another comic accused me of getting... He's like, oh, last time I saw you, you were fucked
up. I was like, oh yeah, really? And he was like, yeah, this comedy club, a comedy club I've never
been to. People loved and they always tag you in things. I can't tell you how often I get tagged
and, Lee, you're really fucking up. Joey, look at that, like, who else has to deal?
Like, oh my God, Lee's really,
I still get people saying you're a Jersey Mike's guy now,
no subway.
I haven't been to a subway.
I'm like paranoid to go to a subway.
It is crazy how they don't,
they still talking about their fucking stars of death.
Oh yeah.
That's been gone for eight fucking years.
The stars of death, stars of death.
It's so weird when they bite into something.
It's like, you know what fucked me up last week?
What's that?
Number one, in today's world, you can't get in trouble.
Okay? You cannot get an illegal trouble. You cannot be a high profile person
and get into any dilemma because the media, what's that expression there? The judge?
Yeah. Like the media doesn't give you a chance to breathe.
Listen, we've known each other a long fucking time.
You ever see Diddy?
And how?
No, I've never seen him out.
Okay. You know what?
That that that wasn't our world.
You know,
and it's so funny how
all of a sudden, everybody's got a Diddy story.
Mm hmm. But then there's people that like you and me, name a party we went to, Liam, like that.
We went to somewhere together.
Do you remember any?
We did.
The only party we went to was Gabe's Christmas party, which was awesome.
Okay.
Gabe's Christmas party.
So how long ago
was that?
Eight to 10 years ago, I would say somewhere seven to 10 years
ago.
It's yeah, 10 years ago. It's 24. Even before that, gotta be
11 years ago, because the one year you went to see the fucking
movie 2013 went to see that movie. So that was in 2012. Now what if that night we took a picture of me,
you, Martin, and whatever.
And Gabriel's our friend.
We know him, we know the guys,
but one of the guys got caught playing the bongos
somewhere in Mexico with a 10 year old.
You know what I'm saying?
And they find out he's got a farm
and he's cousins to the guy in Waco.
I'm just making an imaginary fucking scenario.
And all of a sudden they immediately got pictures.
You know, they got people that were actually there for the parties, you know,
Beyonce, whatever the fuck.
And all of a sudden, after a week, they dig up our picture.
Who else was there?
And we're like, guys, if they knew we drove down, we ate, we giggled
and we were home. Like you know and they raffled off the TV, they gave away $15,000 and they were
playing poker. Do you remember that night? Yeah. And it's like so now because I was there,
now I'm getting hate mail.
You know, like now people looking at you differently, you know, they posted a picture of him and Howard Stern.
I didn't see anything with Howard Stern.
But then the media started talking about the people
with their kids, and that's when I fucking blow the line.
What's that? You know what, man?
I don't see Diddy with kids. I see diddy banging all these hot black chicks and these rappers and fucking you know
celebrities and shit giving them yum yum pills and roofies and
Making them drink blood whatever the fuck they do, you know, because it's just it's just something beyond and then
So that pissed me off that the media is doing that.
But the big thing about 90% of the people that are talking about this don't know the
mental state of the people in Los Angeles and don't know the mental state of people
trying to become famous.
No.
There's two types of people that go to LA. There's people that want to become famous. No. There's two types of people that go to LA.
There's people that want to become famous.
And there's just people that end up there like I did.
You know, it took me 20 years to get an agent
that was worth it, you know what I'm saying?
But in those 20 years, I forgot who the fuck I was.
Okay. But we weren't that lucky, Lee. But in those 20 years, I forgot who the fuck I was. Okay?
But we weren't that lucky, Lee.
And you've witnessed it.
You've seen what happens to people.
I mean, we saw somebody get caught up, and I would tell you all the time,
watch that person, watch that person.
It was no fucking, it was a no-brainer
You know, you're an actor comic. You're a comic you don't belong there
You know, you don't belong there. I don't care what they tell you this that you don't belong there because once you get there, you're gonna realize you don't belong there or
You're gonna be a fucking
Just a fucking hanger on those guys in the rap videos or those guys in the rock videos in the back with the bottle
You know, that's what you want to do. But for some people they're very happy with that
But before people start criticizing
they kind of understand the mental state of
Men and women when they get around that I
Have to I and I don't even know what it was like
No, we both don't know I don't know. That's not our world
We had a fucking office that we paid seven miles a month for a guy right? Yeah our world
We don't know nothing about that shit
But what do you think like what does that?
These people probably wouldn't have done a lot of that stuff
Wherever they were from like what do you think happens when they get around that stuff?
My biggest question has always been who makes a young woman go into a man's hotel room to read a script
Okay that that
to read a script.
Okay.
When I send my daughter home, every fucking to school, that's what I think about.
Like what didn't they teach those girls
that you don't go up there?
You just don't go up there.
There was just so many things
that people never really looked at.
And there was a lot of things with men.
I could sit and listen.
I could go on Shannon sharp
And tell Shannon a million fucking stories
Just upset of speculation that I've heard
From the minute I got that that I never got myself caught into I
Just looked at it for what it was and that's what they do and you know what? That's it
That's it. That was the best thing, but it's so sad that people don't know that world,
but then they're gonna wanna jump into it.
You don't know the world of Jennifer Lopez.
You don't know the world of Diddy.
It's not a fucking life, it's a world.
And what comes into it, Madonna, you know,
these fucking, these moguls, they're fucking, you know, you don't know their world.
You just think they were, they assume.
That was tremendous.
You don't know their world.
I wasn't even a fart.
That was my back stretching.
But people don't know their world.
And the people that are in their world were what they would do to be that person
And when you have that you'll do anything
Use all you want is to be famous
That's it. I
Always came from the school that you had to get on stage to get famous
You know, I see these comedians that are trying to strive, but they work more
on what parties they get invited to and the fashion they get on and the bullshit gallows
they get invited to because they're just bullshitting. Listen, if you look at the Grammys,
the Emmys, or the Oscars, look at me. I'm at the Lesbians Latino Alliance. Listen, there's 80 years, you know, right?
It's it's kind of weird. They make this big yuck for some people that fills their hole for me
I'd rather be at the fucking store banging it up
Fucking doing spots snorting coke and learning comedy in three different fucking rooms
You know, oh, yeah
That's what kills me about this. So I haven't
Spoken about it because everybody's talking about it was making jokes now. Everybody was at a diddy party
I've never seen nothing like this in my life
People want to be at diddy parties. No that now everybody was at a diddy party. That's what I'm saying
I'm surprised someone people admit to it
everybody who fucking
You know was that a dinner party.
I did get some good some good food last night though. I bet I know what it is.
No. Fuck out of me. No, no it was actually it was great. I went to this Italian place. It was great.
In the upper east side. It was called like San Mateo. Dude. I had the gnocchi for one of the first times.
Then they brought out prosciutto hanging. It was just a really cool present. That's one of the
things I love about New York is these little restaurants. They're not everywhere and they
could do really cool. There was an Italian family in there the whole time. There was a kid running
around. One of the guys
Was and this isn't a I swear This guy was just yelling but he didn't seem angry. He was talking italian or speaking italian
But like it was just it was a whole experience and it was the fucking gnocchi was great
Very nice
Very awesome
How many times you got to walk up and down be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to do that.

I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to do that.
I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to do that. I'm not sure if I'm gonna be able to do that. I don't know what that is. My wife made a pot roast with poodles. Jump in the pot roast.
Ooh, it's tremendous.
Jesus.
I've never been so scared in my life.
I got flashbacks of being a kid, which lets you know
how fearful I was when I was a child.
So my daughter goes to my wife that she wants to try out
for some fucking club team.
Me and my wife look at each other like, what the fuck? All right, she tries out, we'll hear nothing for two
weeks, then we got a call. She made it. All right.
Oh, nice.
Practicing the whole thing. Saturday, we show up to a basketball game. It's a nice area.
We walk in. It's seven seven eight nice white little girls from fucking
Whatever this is called. What do they call that?
So very
And we look and the whole team were playing is fucking African-american
The coach the assistant coach the cheerleaders the whole fucking team and I'm like, oh my god
My daughter got herself into a fucking whammy this time
And this is what I wanted I wanted to see if she pissed her pants or whatever
They lost 23 to like fucking 10
Wow, but you know what She did really good. She scored. Nice. You know, she
forgot. Yeah, she has transitioned to a forward from being a guard. So it was a tough transition.
I took her to the courts Wednesday. She was off from school Thursday. I took her to the
courts Thursday because I let I could tell she's getting taller. She ain't a guard no
more. She's a fucking forward. Now she's a brute. She's a fucking brute.
Oh, that's awesome.
So we went over there, she lost.
But those sisters were quick and they were good.
They were fucking princesses.
They were all very sweet.
I talked to the parents after the game.
They were fucking dynamite. There was one little
black girl who looked just like John Morant. She had fucking dreads taking it to the hoop jack.
Those little girls were vicious. It was just an enjoyable game to watch.
What did Mercy say after losing like that?
Nothing. She got in the car with me and she put on the fucking music and You know, I asked I said you did well. I know you looked a little lost
She told me you know, and then my mom's gonna take either tomorrow to shoot some hoops. I don't know. I
Don't know. It's gonna rain tomorrow. It's gonna rain tonight. I would have fucked knows anymore

I'm actually doing the Laugh Boston with Jim Florentine on that week, the 17th. Look at you,

I'll lead it over 20 weeks of work. Yeah. If want to get good you do 20 weeks if you really really really want to get good you do 35
Yeah, I'm gonna hit 32. I think and it's but I definitely see a huge difference
