Episode Date: January 28, 2020

This week on the Whats New Podcast we sit down with Jo Koy and talk about Netflix, his travels to the Philippines and Dubai, Seattle, working at a hotel and more!

What's new, what's new with Menace? What's up everybody and welcome to another edition of the What's New Podcast with Menace. I am Menace, I am joined by Bort aka Brett. He is an audio expert and syndication expert with the Woody Show Morning Show across the United States and around the world on AFN. He has an assistant, his name is Nick, a.k.a. Eric, a.k.a. Nick Soundwave. He is an audio expert as well, and he works for Fox Sports, so we like to ask him sporting questions. How are you doing, Nick, a.k.a. Eric?

I'm doing great. We also have Randy, who is a radio DJ himself, and he works on the Woody Show. What is up, Randy? What's happening, guys? Alongside Randy is Tyler, the board op, who runs the boards for The Woody Show on Alt 98.7 in Los Angeles and Orange County.

What's up, guys? This is a special edition of the What's New podcast. I'm just going to get a few things out of the way, and then we're going to have a sit-down with Joel Coy. I went to his house, and I had a bunch of questions about his career, his recent travels and his outlook on life. And I feel like a lot of people need to hear that right now,

because I know a lot of people in this room are dealing with the death of Kobe Bryant, because you guys, I know when, once the news was breaking, the group chat got really, really dark and very, very sad. I had to do a wellness check on all three of these guys. I know. Hardcore sporting guys. Yeah, it was like epic freak outs and then nothing. So I got the news.

I was driving and I looked down at my watch and saw the message. I think the first message came in from Tyler. And I saw his picture, right? So I didn't really take too much time because I was driving. I'm on the freeway. I'm not safe to do that. So then I get like one or two more vibrations in my pocket, a couple more group messages. And then my fiance, Dr. Sunshine says, somebody just texted me and not even a sports friend.

So-and-so just texted us. Did you hear about Kobe? And then I started connecting dots as I'm driving down the 405 at like 11 in the morning. And I'm like, oh no, that's not good. From my car to where I was going, I intersected maybe 12 different people. Every single one of them was talking about it. Different groups, couldn't not escape it. I was walking out of my apartment building and I was going to a grocery store and I could just see everyone getting the news

at the same time. And that's only happened a few times in my life. It was Princess Diana, Kurt Cobain, and Michael Jackson to be at that level where you just see people getting the news. You know, I want to dig deeper into all that kind of stuff on our next podcast, because there's going to be more information that comes out about the accident. I'm sure we're going to get some information about his funeral.

Who you asked me to. to well a lot of people already when they go to my like my Instagram or my Twitter they already assume that I'm extremely smart yeah so if you were to do that they would they would either know they would know that I was in a rush yeah or that someone stupid did it for me and I didn't want to be that or to be that

I would have said it dude you're about to hit a million on Instagram that's nuts I know I remember we were sitting at this table and you hit like 600,000. No, 500. 500. It's 500K. Exactly. Yeah.

And it landed the day before my special dropped. Wow. So coming in hot, came out on June, whatever. Uh-huh. And let's just say it came out June 1st. Yeah. Like May 31st, it hit 500k exactly damn and then and now we're in january so that's what six months yeah so i mean like every time you

And if that was me, I would be stressing, man. You know, what's crazy is I had, I had my lines memorized. Yeah.

Like I had them now, all it was, was about acting. Right. And, um, and we walk out and I hit a tongue twister and it was over with. And what was crazy was not only was I like so prepared, like I was, I was so cocky during like the reads, you know what I mean? Like when we were going over shit, like I got this.

No, no, no. Like I was literally killing it without even looking at my line. Yeah. Like I was literally just doing my lines without looking at my, my, my pages.

Right. I was off book. And then, uh, and then come taping. Yeah. And even Gabe was like, Hey man, then come taping yeah and even gabe was like hey man it's taping so you know if you don't hit your line we're good yeah we'll we'll do it nine ten times who cares we don't care i'm like gabe you don't have to worry about that i got this like

you what you did for me already is beautiful i'm not gonna mess up your show by being the blooper reel. Yeah. I'm not going to do that to Mr. Iglesias. Yeah. Yeah. Action. I believe. Problem. I know.

Cause I was there like right out the gate. And then I was like, I know you looked like a little upset, but then you got on group. I was so mad because especially that scene, I had it down pat. Yeah. And it was the damn,

uh, uh, the four 20 rest reference. reference yeah it was a tongue twister man i forgot the line but anyways it was a tongue twister if you would have said it you'd twist it oh i'd be dead that's why i wouldn't want to see anybody that's why again i was like i'm not gonna bug joe oh that's nice of you i was just in the back eating i wish you would have said hi that is awesome i wish you would have said hi i That food spread is awesome. I wish you would have said hi. I'm sorry. Yeah. Don't do that ever again.

Don't do that. It's my bad. Um, I'm looking at you directly. Like I'm looking right at your face and you wear prescription glasses like myself. Yeah. Yeah.

So we got black horn. Is this called a horn rim? Horn rim. Yeah. Horn rim. Black horn rim glasses. And then it's a, the clear lenses,

right? Yeah. Yeah. But for some reason, your left lens is completely fogged up. I'm sweating because I'm nervous. We have identical glasses on.

Usually when I'm talking with you, I'm with a group of people. So like I have a second to relax and think about what I'm talking about. So I'm a little, maybe I'm less stressed. And I'm wearing a sweatshirt. And you gotta be fast. Well, no, the sweatshirt has nothing to do with it because there's AC blowing on you and it's freezing. Yeah. So I don't, I'm wearing a sweatshirt. And you got to be fast. Well, no, the sweatshirt has nothing to do with it because there's AC blowing on you and it's freezing.

Yes. I brought you. Look at the vent. Look at the vent. Okay. But then, okay, so let me ask you something. Are you upset because you didn't say anything? I brought you a sweatshirt, a Jollibee one.

Oh, I saw it. Do you think, is that racist? Yeah, it's very racist. It is? Yes. Why? Because I love Jollibee. I love Jollibee too. I was in the Philippines. do you think is that racist yeah it's very racist is it yes why because i love jolly b i love jolly b too i was in the philippines i was at jolly b you bought it on my instagram

yeah i was like when in the philippines because i had to get from the tap dude yeah man you know what i'm saying in the bay yeah san francisco daily city yeah you know i mean it's okay there it's okay there when you go you, you got to go to the Philippines. Yeah. The spicy chicken was so good. When you're in, when you're in LA, when you're like in,

uh, like San Francisco or LA or whatever, uh, and you do Jollibee, you think to yourself, you know what? It's American. It's,

it's, it's, it's, you know, the meat is, it's from the States. It's good. Of course it's good.

Yeah. Then you go to, you go to the Philippines and you eat it and you're like, true. How did they do this? So good. But they did it. Enough about me. I want to hear about your trip to the Philippines. I just want to say real quick though.

The coolest thing for me in the Philippines is the first stop that I went to, I went to like some small village and like the kids were just like having fun doing nothing. Like no, no PlayStation, no Xbox, nothing. Just happy. It brought me back to my youth cause I lived there. Yeah. So I lived there from the age of five to 11 or four to 10, whatever. It was my most memorable years though. Yeah. Um, like I remember everything. I remember the tricycles, the Jeep knees running down the streets, uh, eating the barbecue off the sticks. Like the jeepneys running down the streets uh eating the the barbecue off the sticks like the minute i got off that plane and this is not a lie and i'm not trying

to be funny i i smelt a smell and it literally just went like my memory was just in hd wow philippines i remember everything man and that scent that smell i was like i remember that smell yeah and uh it was just crazy to see uh the difference that that uh that netflix has done for me yeah you know because i was there when i opened well me and russell peters was out there and uh how no one knew me then and now it's like they need to go to your instagram and see it at joe it's crazy i couldn't even walk man yeah it's crazy it's nuts't even walk, man. Yeah. It was crazy. It's nuts. Like you were the president. Yeah.

They were just taking you through that. The one video, they're taking you through the bridge and then the motorcycles and everything. That was nuts. That's next level stuff, man. Did you see the arena? Yeah. That was nuts. I know. Not a seat left.

Yeah. No comps. Yeah. No free tickets at the show, bro. Not a seat left. Yeah. No comps. Yeah. No free tickets at the show, bro. Not one free ticket. Yeah. Everyone, they bought it. The minute it went on sale, it sold out.

So it's just like, how do you process that? Like, I'm telling you, like, as you know, when you go from clubs to theaters and then from theaters to arenas, you take on this other risk you know like like it goes from uh no responsibility you know i mean like i mean i'm responsible when you're at a club you know but you still want to sell out but like you know you don't have to really stress too much you know i mean there's not that much out of pocket the venue's paid for you don't have to rent it you have to pay for the staff to run it you don't need a light guy a sound guy all that's taken care of then you go to an arena and you're like i'm sorry we need

we need a person to build a stage yeah i thought it came with a stage no you have to hire yeah you have to hire a 30 30 man crew to build a stage yes. Yeah. Uh, you, do you want speakers? Yeah. What? Yeah. Yeah. Do you want speakers? Yeah. Because we, we need to hire a crew to bring in the speakers. Yeah. The kind that you want. Yeah. Yeah. Do you want, uh, you want, uh, IMAGs so that the people in the back of the arena can see you, or do you want to just go up and know it can be a little yeah because if you need imax you need to rent those it's like so much responsibility and to do that in a country that's not you know it doesn't happen all the time yeah man like like people they don't have what's that called uh weekend money yeah they don't have that you know i mean a lot of people

are tight with their money there yeah understandably tooably too. So for them to come see me, it's, it's a really like, it has to be special to them. You know what I mean? Like this is their thing. Yeah. I love everybody's story,

you know? And then like hearing the story of how you would rent theaters and try to get people to come out and then here you are, you know, halfway around the world doing an arena right that's a trip bro when i told them to turn their their phone lights on yeah just so i can see it right and you know because it's one thing to light light up a phone and see it from the stands you know it gives you like a weird like as a fan you look around and go whoa this is crazy it looks like the stars yeah imagine

from the stage man it's the craziest thing so when i did that man that was literally like that was that one moment where i was like i can't believe this is happening is this real life yeah that's what i and i just that's what i commented on your instagram i mean your instagram is huge now so you probably don't even see my instagram, my post. But I was like, you have to be asking yourself, is this real life right now? You know, that's nuts. And then you went from the Philippines to Dubai. Yes. And here's my ignorance.

You ready for this one? Yeah. Oh, mind you, in the Philippines, I also shot that Netflix special. Yeah. So I didn't know how much you could talk about. Yeah. I know that you've been telling people that you were going to shoot in there, but I'm doing it, bro.

I'm telling everybody now I shot it man representing the Philippines representing Filipinos we had a whole Filipino camera crew yeah I saw you like out in the streets and stuff like that some cat attacked you or something yes dude

I'm so honored to be able to say that I was the first one to do that and, uh, bring Netflix to the Philippines and have like, you know, the whole staff was Filipino, man. It was a beautiful thing working for like the biggest company in the world

right now. Like these camera crews were like, yeah, like we're doing this for Netflix. Like everyone was so excited that it was for Netflix. And the drone footage and stuff like that. I can't wait. That guy's a G man. I can't wait. That guy's a G, man.

I can't wait. He's amazing. It's really good. It's very beautiful. And we embraced the cultures. And it was neat to see three other Filipinos. That was my whole content. Bring Filipinos back to the motherland and see what their parents sacrificed so that

they could do something crazy like become a comedian. Because their parents didn't have that option. Yeah. Their option was go to America. That way your kids have a good life. Yeah. It's one thing to live in Iowa with your Filipino mom and go, how, why'd you pick Iowa mom?

Yeah. You know what I mean? And then take that kid back to the Philippines goes. Yeah. And then they'll go, oh yeah. Thank God you picked Iowa mom. I know. Yeah.

Like I was saying that village I was at, man. Yeah. These kids had nothing. Nothing, bro. Nothing. And happy is. Happy. Happy.

Yeah. And it's sad because I get back to America and I see kids the same age. Yeah. And they're sad. Yeah, they're sad. They're surprised to have everything in the world. Like, what are you sad about? They just don't know, man.

I guess. about they just don't know man i guess it it maybe maybe i think a lot of it has to do also with weird i don't know uh jealousy due to social media yeah you know that that's everyone always think that everyone else is doing better than they are yeah you know so they can't appreciate what they have well you know what's crazy man is, man, is that that's an internal killer, man. Like to have that kind of thought process. I never look at that like that. I don't give a shit. I don't care who's next to me blowing up, man.

Bro, I'm gonna get it. Yeah. You just, you are basically setting the bar and leading the race, but I'm gonna catch up. You know what I mean? Cause that's my goal. I'm goal-driven, man. Like, I don't understand that people, you know,

when people see stuff that's happening in front of them and they get depressed about like, oh, well, I guess I can't do it because, you know, Steve already did it and it's impossible now. It's impossible for Tuesdays to exist. Like, what are you talking about, bro? What are you talking about? I think I was fortunate, like, you know,

coming up in San francisco before i moved to la because i saw that stuff with like my dot com friends like so just recently over thanksgiving i was i went to a warriors game and i saw justin and he started justin.tv which became twitch which they sold to wow to amazon yeah so this is a guy that i would go to his parties and it was like at the little office that they had. Yeah. Now he's like courtside with his whole family.

That's worth over a hundred million dollars. I know. Like, so all that stuff, it just showed me that things were possible. You know, it didn't make me jealous at all. And it should like, dude, that's dope. You know, it should motivate you. But I don't know why like people get this. I don't understand.

I don't understand people that make it and become insecure. That's what's crazy to me. Yeah. Like when they make it and now they're like, well, I don't want to ever want to lose this position. So my job now from this point on is to make sure no one gets up here with me. So they spent all this energy trying to push people down and then they end up

losing whatever it is that they worked so hard for. If you would have just stayed on top and helped other people, you'd be even bigger. Absolutely. But you're, you're too much trying to be that one person. I know some radio people like that. Bro.

I know so many people like that. So many. I know radio people like that. And then it was like, they could be way bigger than what they are now. Way bigger, man. And you know what's even crazier is when they finally because i've seen a few like start to change the light

you know they see the light but now it's too late i know like it's too late man now you look like oh can you help me i'm on my way out and i'm really sorry for the way i acted it's like bro yeah because you get that mentality that oh you're a dick yeah man you're still a dick. Yeah. Because you get that mentality that, Oh, you're a dick. Yeah, man. You're still a dick. Like, you know, I accept your apology, your apology, but you're a dick,

dude. Yeah. What about all those years you were a dick? Yeah. You know what I mean? I accept your apology, but enjoy your dick juice. Swim in it.

I want to ask you though about Dubai, afraid to go. Okay. And I'm glad you said that because ignorance. And let me tell you why. Yeah. I almost canceled my tour because of that too. Really?

Yep. You want to ask Yoda? Was I not about to cancel it? Wow. A week before. Yeah. When, when they said that they were going to strike Dubai in retaliation.

Yeah. You remember that? They said that. Yeah. I called my sister. I go, cancel it. We're not going,

we're not going to go into a hot zone man i know yeah and it's so funny because i literally am a product of media right like if you i buy into it man like especially not i don't buy into the like like like if it's celebrity news and stuff like that i always get the benefit of the doubt or whatever's happening in america I always like, Oh, I got my own eyes. But whenever I see, uh, you know, the middle East or something,

you know, I've been programmed at such a young age to be afraid, to be afraid without, without any type of knowledge, without going into not even at least go to Google and Google something and figure it out. You know what I mean? Instead of just looking at the news and going,

Oh, the guys in the, at the news and going, Oh, the guys in the, with the long things on their heads with the, this, those, those are evil people. All of them are angry. All of them.

Not one. All of them are angry and they owned oil and they ride camels. Like it's so racist and ignorant on my part because I bought into that. And there's nothing wrong with that because as a kid, you know, that's, that's when they, they, they, that's when they come after you is when you're a kid and your brain is just a sponge and you absorb all this negative media and you're just like, Oh yeah, they're, they're evil people out there. It's so funny that you're saying that because before we sat down, I was talking with Yoda. Yoda, by the way, is one of your video guys yeah and um after

the philippines i went to hong kong yeah and again you know if you look at the media like everybody's telling me like dude don't go to hong kong man it's crazy yeah you know because like all the drama and protests oh yeah and they're like oh you don't want to stay there man it's dangerous yeah i was like you know what i mean i i do my own research i look on social media i see like what's active and stuff yeah and i uh i was there i was walking around hong kong nothing nothing's happening if you look at the media you would think the whole city was on fire yeah and that's how i felt about iran and dubai yeah and then so when i saw you do your trip i was was like, man. Bro, let me tell you. It was so dope. Let me tell you how ignorant I am.

Arab people, Persian people, Iranian people, Iraqi, whatever. Whatever is out there in the Middle East. Yeah. Those are the most loving people in the world. There are some bad seeds. Yeah. But that's anywhere. That's bad seeds in any ethnicity.

It's not the whole entire country. Like we got to Dubai and I felt like we were in some type of Sims game. I thought like, this is not real. Everything's brand new, pristine, perfect. No one's stealing from anybody. Like literally, like even the guy that took care of me, Muhammad,

he was like, bro, bro man like you can leave your bag right here and come back in two hours and your bag will be right here yeah no one wants to steal here yeah the whole thought process is like if I get in trouble for something stupid I'm leaving the greatest city ever like for me to leave that would be stupid like for me to steal something it'd be dumb like no one's gonna steal out there nothing it's it's the most perfect city man yeah you stayed at the versace hotel versace hotel man everything i saw that when it was like being built the palazzo versace i follow iace. I'm not joking, bro. Versace chairs, Versace ice container, Versace. Everything was Versace. That song from Drake, Versace, Versace, Versace. It was literally us walking him very well. Yeah. A couple of times. Chris fade. Yeah. Super dope.

Everyone was great there. Chris was so amazing, man. Help me promote. Um, dude, another arena, Coca-Cola arena.

Yeah. What are you afraid? Like people might not know me here. No, we, we, I, I'm the one,

first of all, my agent, my manager did not want to do it. Right. Yeah. So, and my promoter as well, they didn't, they were, they were, it agent, my manager did not want to do it. Right. Yeah. So, and my promoter as well, they didn't, they, they, it's not that they didn't want to do it.

They were just like kind of a big investment. You know what I mean? We'll, we'll tie it in somehow. I was going to get a weekend date out of it. Yeah. So we had to, we had to stick it on a Monday or a Tuesday or something like that. So to stick an arena on a Tuesday is stupid anywhere. And now to do it in a market we've never been to was even crazier.

So no one really took it. And man, that was the best investment I ever made. Yeah. Yeah. They came out, bro. Bro. Here's another thing I do. Man, I'm talking a lot right now.

No, no, no. This is all the stuff we're wearing here. Here's another thing I've I, I've always done since jump street and that, and I keep telling all these up and coming, uh, acts to, to just like the, if you, if you want to take anything from my,

my, my, uh, my business plan, my motto, I'm telling you, this is the most important one. Do not comp.

Don't comp. Yeah. You're not a comp act. Versace doesn't give away free Versace shirts. And guess what? People pay a thousand dollars a shirt. Yeah. You're not a comp act. Versace doesn't give away free Versace shirts. And guess what? People pay a thousand dollars a shirt. Yeah. So you either got to think like Versace or you got to think like Ross discount clothes.

Yeah. You pick, you pick your, whatever it is that you want to be in life. You choose it, man. Yeah. If you're going to sit there and complain about,

Oh, I only got a, I only got 50 people in the seats, but there was 200 in there. And it's like, well, yeah, you copped.

You can't, you can't do that. Cause once you, it's like a, it's like when you leave milk out in front of your house for a cat, you know, that cat's going to keep coming back for that free milk. Yeah.

You know what I mean? Yeah. And that's what happens with a free ticket. You give a free ticket. They're always going to come back for that free ticket. If they come back the second time and you go, hey man, do you want 30 bucks? I was free last time.

You know what? I'm good. That's exactly how they're going to end. I used to work at a TV station and one of the newscasters, he used to be a bartender. And he told me that, you know, back in the day that people would ask him like, hey, can you bartend at my wedding? He's like, no.

He goes, I get paid for that. But if you want me to help you move, I'll help you move. Yeah. You know, like things like that. But like what I do as a profession, like,

yeah, I got to get paid. Isn't that crazy? Yeah. I don't get it, man. It drives me absolutely crazy. When I,

when, when people ask me for tickets to my show, it's, it's, it's, it's mind boggling. Like, what are you talking about yeah my tickets

go from an average of 55 to 200 right yep so you're gonna ask for five tickets even at the low end 250 bucks won't you just walk up to me and go hey can i have 250 bucks yeah makes no sense um i just want to let you know i did buy those tickets in vegas the show that i was late to that you ripped me for did you i did buy those did you really yeah The show that I was late to that you ripped me for. Did you? I did buy those. Did you really? Yeah. I think your sister was going to let me in.

No editing. Yeah. Yeah. Keep it in there. All right. So I was talking to my radio friend, Anthony from Colin Murray and Anthony, they do a morning show in Seattle,

right? Yeah. And Anthony was telling me that you, I didn't know Joe was from Seattle. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So then I was,

I was thinking, I was like, man, ever since I've, i've known you i've always known la joe vegas joe and i don't really know the history with seattle so i said maybe there was something i missed in the special yeah so i redownloaded the seattle special and i was watching on the plane i was sitting next to this girl. I forgot that you were jacking off for like 35 minutes on this special. But I didn't get my answer.

So I wanted to ask you, what is the, what is, I'm like trying to angle the, trying to angle my iPad, you know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, I was, so Seattle, huh? Is that where you went? Yeah was like so yeah my dad was in the military and he retired in tacoma okay and he retired in tacoma because his whole entire family moved to seattle uh-huh so his you know his mother was there his father was there uh you know his sister was there his brother was there they were they were all there so we we left the ph the Philippines and moved to Tacoma and that's where he chose to retire. Cause when you're about to retire, you get to choose where, when you're in the military. I don't know if they do

that now, but that's what they did with my dad. And he picked Tacoma, Washington. So from the sixth, sixth grade until 12th grade, I lived in Tacoma, Washington. And the minute I graduated, literally the day after I graduated, I moved to Vegas. Oh, wow. And that was it? It was sad. Damn. It was sad, but it wasn't sad

because one, no matter how much I loved my friends and how much I loved my sports teams, like I love the Sonics, I love the Mariners, I love the Seahawks. I hated that weather, bro. Yeah.

I hated it, man. It was so depressing. A lot of stuff happened in my life in Tacoma and, uh, you know, with my family and my brother, you know, in his situation and, and, and the rain made me even more depressed. Oh man, that sounds bad. If we put that in there, but, um, I can say that that rain does not help depression. Yeah. And I, and I was a depressed kid because that rain really, it brought me down,

bro. Yeah. It brought me way down. And we were in a, we were in a situation where it was just not good. It was a bad time in our lives. And, and when we moved to Vegas,

it was over with bro. Yeah. Like man, the light was there. There was sun, like the most extreme sun. There was opportunity. Yeah. Like man, the light was there. There was sun, like the most extreme sun. There was opportunity. Yeah.

You know, 1989 Steve Wynn announces that he's going to build a super hotel. Yeah. And, and that changed the economy. It was crazy. It was booming. Dude,

everyone was rich. You're working at the Nordstrom rack balling. No, I didn't come to Nordstrom rack until I came to LA. Oh really? Oh, I was balling. No, I didn't come to Nordstrom Rack until I came to LA. Oh, really? Oh, I thought that was Vegas. No, Vegas. I was balling, bro.

Oh, okay. I made enough money in Vegas to move to LA. Yeah. Yeah. But bro, you got to remember, free benefits, insurance. Yeah. Minimum wage was like, I don't, I'm making this up, so don't quote me on this, but I think I was making like $13.50 an hour.

Yeah. You know what I mean? You're in your twenties. You're balling bro. Did you have this? Live with your mom? No rent. Yeah. Huge. I, so I did AV for a hotel when I was working part-time at a radio station. Did you get free food too? Yep. My hotel, we got free food. And Steve Wynn has it laid out. And here's another thing that he would do. So you get this, first of all, the pristine environment. It looks like a restaurant. Not like some hotels, they'll use the broken chairs for the convention room. You know, they got a couch with a rip in it.

So they give that to the employees, you know, the bad carpet. It just smells like shit in there. Refrigerator lights are out. They don't replace them, but it keeps the food cold. Yeah. Like that's, no, not Steve. Steve, it looked like the Bellagio buffet in there. And then every now and then he would bring down food

from like the high-end restaurants that they're not selling and that would end up down there. Man, we would be kings. Yeah. We got the salmon plate from from the fish house what i'll take two and everyone was hooking up everybody there so like you you had an employee card and it's mandatory that you scan it so they keep track of you you know i mean like you can't be eating their breakfast lunch and dinner bro i was eating breakfast lunch and dinner damn um

there was another thing i was listening to your podcast and it has to do with hotels yeah it's funny because we have like a weird connection to a hotel yeah um i forgot how many podcasts it was ago but so any if people don't listen to joe coy podcast they should because it'll motivate you in life oh thank you because like again it goes back to the like positivity thing like people man they just want to be miserable and i like that so you were shouting out the w hotel in new york city and said that you love that hotel yeah and it was so weird because um i was in san francisco i just got fired but i just got rehired by cbs radio and i was working part-time and i knew these radio djs in new york city and they would fly me out to help them hook up their studio at their home studios. And I would always go by the W hotel in New York city and time square.

Yeah. I was like, I'm going to stay there one day. I'm going to stay there. Really? Yeah. I eventually did. And I've stayed at W hotels around the world. Yeah.

It's not my favorite one, but I at least got, I at least got to stay there. It's not, you're 100% right about that. The only thing. It was just like a goal. Yeah. You're right about it. And I continually stay at that hotel. Yeah.

That's what he said. And there's better W's and there's one like down in like Union Square. So not Union Square. What is it down by? They have a couple in the same area. Yeah. It's like in the Soho area,

whatever, or like by New York University. I don't know what that area is. I think that is Soho, but there's another W hotel that's like way better. But for some reason I gravitate towards time square. Yeah. I don't know why. I think I just, I'm attracted to lights and be in the middle of everything. I love it. That's what I love. I love to be able to go downstairs and boom, there's a, there's just

life energy. Yeah. I mean, you can do that anywhere in New York, but there's just something about, I don't know, man. I love time square, man. I love it, bro. Yeah. I mean, you can do that anywhere in New York, but there's just something about, I don't know, man. I love time square, man. I love it, bro. Yeah,

I really do. People are like, Oh, you don't want to be all tourists and all that kind of stuff. I can be, I can go anywhere around the state. That's great. But I still want to go to time square.

Who doesn't? Why wouldn't you want to take a picture in time square? I hate that too cool attitude. I hate too cool attitude. I think too cool attitude is phony too cool is whack yeah too cool is just like someone like i i hate people that always act like oh i've been here already yeah like no you haven't bro you you ain't been here quit acting like you've been here yeah even if you have stop yeah you know this is amazing i was just talking about this

earlier uh to someone i don't want to give out names, but it's just like, I, I, you know, it's like an energy killer. It's like, like everyone's enjoying it,

but there's that one cat that's acting like, it's just like, this is a bar, dude. Like, what are you talking about? No, it's not.

Yeah. Everything was clumped. You know, like, what are you doing? Who are you? Like when he had the best night and then there's always the one person like always it was all right i hate that the worst i hate that too i hate i hate this dude too you ready yeah and when i say dude i mean male female

or whatever you know i mean yeah i hate this person i hate this person that goes uh yo man like i'm just you know i'm tired of doing this i've been working too hard man it's just man we've been we've been doing too i'm trying to be careful with my words yeah but they it's always like it's too well i'm tired man yo oh i'm tired like when we're gonna get a break then then when they finally get a break like yeah oh man how am i gonna pay for, you know, people should just like, when you live life, you want to be successful,

man. Don't say those things. When, when you have opportunity and you, and you're, and you got work being handed to you and you have an opportunity to make money on top of money. Yeah.

And the only thing that comes out of your mouth is like, dude, I don't know. Yo, this is yo man. Like how much you like, let's go already. Like, what like how much you like let's go already like what are you talking about let's go already yeah what happened to the guy that was like yo

how am i gonna pay this rent yeah i'll do anything what happened to that person yeah where is that i know i i get around people and sometimes i yeah i definitely have to check myself where it's like uh you know we do radio for a living yeah and it's like complaining about a meeting that we have you know like i remember like uh when i was working at a pirate store a pirate novelty store at pier 39 in san francisco dude when i was working there i'll take meetings all day yeah meetings all day isn't it crazy yeah we seem to forget that yeah so i like check myself i'm like oh man what is that about what is that about the human that does that because it really happens at the workplace like

and i'm only saying this like i don't work at you know i don't have a nine nine to five anymore but when i did i always saw that it's if there's a group of people you know that that that work these nine to fives and it's just nonstop complaining about their work. Dude, you have the right to quit anytime. You can just leave and find whatever it is that you were, you're looking for. But what happened to the person that filled out that application? That really wanted that. Where is that person? How did you lose that person? Yeah. Where, when you were,? Yeah. When you needed help paying rent and you don't have enough money for food or gas,

you went to Nordstrom Rack and filled out an application and basically begged them, please, I need a job, man, and I'll do anything. Because I know the interview. I know the interview process. So either you lied, because I'm pretty sure that manager was like, are you willing to go above and beyond?

Can you do stuff without me asking? Do I always need to, are you the type of person that needs to be managed or do you manage yourself? Like you answered all those questions. And then the minute you get hired, you're this different person. Why?

What happened? I don't know. Anyways, I didn't mean to bring the pot down. We're trying to, I hope that I just want you to know if there's people listening, don't be that person, man. No. Stay hungry.

Because then you make everybody else miserable. Yeah. Workers, your family, things like that. It's the worst. Stay working, man. Set goals. I want to say thank you, and I want to make an apology. You better.

Okay. You better do it right now. Which one do you want me to do first? The thank you or the apology? They're both great. You know what I mean? Like both of them are going to make me feel good about myself. Okay.

You know what I mean? Yeah. So I'll take the apology first. Okay. Last time I was here at your house, I wore my shoes in the living room. And that pissed me off. That was a big no-no. That pissed me off. I didn't know what I was here at your house, I wore my shoes in the living room. And that pissed me off. That was a big no-no. That pissed me off.

I didn't know what I was thinking. It's disrespectful. Yeah. How do you not take off shoes at your house? Do you not see when you step in? No, but I take my shoes to the closet. So I do walk through my house. Yeah, that's so disgusting.

So there's just this trail of mud and piss. Yep. Urinal piss. Just feces everywhere. Yeah, fecal matter. Everywhere. Yeah. Yeah.

But the shoes I was wearing, you gave them to me. Well, you're welcome. Yeah. So I want to say thank you. Oh, so it was like, I wore them around your house, but you also gave them to me. You gave them to me in the area that i was sitting in but then i kept them on which was a bad thing but they're beautiful i learned yeah yeah they're very nice do you still wear them i still wear them good yeah that makes me happy people ask me where i got mine and say

i want to give you props but i'm afraid that they're gonna ask you why for shoes too oh people at the workplace yeah so that's why i didn't say anything i was like oh i got them as a gift oh that's nice of you yeah but I love everyone that you work with though yeah but I'm afraid of like one person that would like
