needed you to know why I came by yeah I. need you to tell us why people know I. don't go everywhere I'm not interested. in talking to people unless it's like a. Larry King or somebody of an amazing ilk. that I would actually want to go talk to. in real life okay um I don't do it so I. can sell product and I got things to. sell so let me come talk um you have a. great product here and as a fan base we.

love the attention that you spend on the. guest we we love how much work you've. done how well you know them how prepared. you are the same things that we liked. about you in football you brought that. on over to here and that's uh why it. resonates and the reason I had to come. is because you made a safe place for the. truth to be told you know what I mean. and I have watched all of these low.

comedians come here and disrespect you. in your face and tell you straight up. lies I'm talking about things that have. never been heard in all of black. Hollywood they feel comfortable sitting. here and lying to you about it you going. set the record straight are you kidding. me you let Ricky Smiley sit here and you. said out that mouth you stole Frid after. next the one I was in I wish all all of. America fumbled a bit when that happened.

and then he said some stuff that we. haven't heard in 100 years in Hollywood. you ain't say nothing this man told you. he had Cat Williams role he was going to. be Money Mike and Cat Williams was going. to be was going to be the Santa Claus. now let's three quick points you mean in. Hollywood they cast a 5 foot5 black. Santa Claus that weigh 145 lbs that's. your story your story is the Ricky. Smiley that couldn't even do curse words.

because he had a Christian fan base he. was going to play the pimp why you. didn't ask him why has he played a woman. in more movies than he's played a man. well I didn't know he he shouldn't be. able you wouldn't let a athlete that. been on steroids talk about one of the. greats Ricky Smiley can't act cuz Ricky. Smiley can't act he told you the story. about when the movie came out where did. he say he watched.

at home he wasn't even at the premiere. you telling this man you stole that oh. so he could get his name in the same. sentence with a great one it is sad he. was just that bitter when we were. shooting it he told everybody it should. have been my role everybody on the scene. why do you think no cast member has ever. said anything he couldn't have played. that role like you I thought he sir no. one why no he was with. KD he beat up Terry Cruz why nobody know.

this story you talking about in. Hollywood they switched off road you. take this and he what so Ricky Ricky. Smiley knows this and I don't know why. he would lose a child and come on the. air and start lying that's why people. believe in rituals right there is. because well why would he lie I don't. know why Liars lie but I can tell you. this we auditioned in Los Angeles yes I. was audition number 201.

200 black comedians auditioned for the. role of Money Mike with me you're saying. all 200 and one of us was auditioning. and you had already had the roll and had. already shot the roll in four. days the truth of the matter is the. Money Mike in the original script got. raped in the bathroom and that's what. Ricky Smiley was okay. with Cat Williams had to take the risk. in front of the studios and the cast and. our power that be in his very first.

movie and say. respectfully humbly guys if we talking. about anything else I have no. credibility and I have no pull but we. talking about comedy right where I have. all the credibility and all the pool the. problem with Friday After Next is we're. trying to make a classic comedy and this. comedy involves a rape and rape is never. funny no matter who it happens to or.

what the circumstances are if you would. allow me to allow us to do this movie. without a black man getting raped in it. I promise you that it will be twice as. funny as it would be with him getting. raped so considering that's the real. story why would you bring up that story. 35 members of the cast and crew have. never brought up that Ricky Smiley was. going to play Money Mike no one ever saw.

me put on a Santa Claus suit we got a. wardrobe department they made a Santa. Claus suit for me why that wasn't in the. bloopers what and and here's the other. thing everything that money Mike said. Cat Williams wrote so what Ricky Smiley. say on. his you can't say my lines I wrote. them that's how I already ready know. that I'm going to be funnier than you. what he told everybody was Cat Williams. and and don't nobody know who he is I'm.

on the radio I'm with stepen said. everybody know me that's what he told. everybody that we listen to on the set. that's the truth of the matter he was so. egregious not now then he was so. egregious that and Hollywood has never. heard this in a hundred years he was so. egregious I put in my contract that I. won't work with Ricky Smiley again. unless he's in a dress now what was. Ricky Smiley's next movie was it first. Sunday did did he wear a dress in it you.

bet he did it's in my. contract why would you put that in your. with in your contract cat that's where. he's the a believable. actor him and Tyler Perry can't play a. man to save their. life they play good women and I believe. that the best actor should be in the. best role so that's why because when we. released that clip and he said that you. responded because he said he was. supposed to play money mik and you were. supposed to say play Santa Claus an.

outright lie so that he knows is a lie. so why would he say it cuz he's a liar. Nobody Knows Why Liars lie and that's. why I had to come on the program Cedric. did the same thing Cedric told you when. you asked him did you steal Cat Williams. joke he said it don't line up how it. don't line up that I did it on TV in. 2018 you came to see me at The Comedy. Store do it in 2019 and then did it on. the Kings of Comedy like what doesn't. line up. I this is a televised joke that Mark.

Curry helped me punch up and get to the. level that it was the same Steve that. went to go watch Mark Curry do his whole. sitcom and then stole everything Mark. Curry had now Steve got a sitc count. where he the principal and he wear a. suit and he and then he gets this high. top fade making all black men think he. got the best lineup in the business and. it's a man unit then you ask why why you. not a movie star I didn't want to be a.

movie star that's the same negro that. hated on Bernie with this same thing I. didn't want to be a movie star no you. couldn't be a movie star there are. 30,000 new scripts in Hollywood every. year not one of them ask for a country. bumpkin black dude that can't talk good. over and look like Mr Potato Head there. ain't none you would have to have. range I played a lot of characters 60. movie roles I'm not playing cat Williams. in.

there I don't know I don't know C we. might not let you drink anymore the way. you you I mean we ain't even got I'm not. fuel by Al I've had a sip less than. you the truth don't need motivation I'm. just saying I can't let these dudes lie. Cedric sitting here telling you why he. ain't a movie star he over here look. like a walrus you didn't say nothing he. can't even get his arms off his stomach. sitting over here why I'm not a movie. what it's a situ never wrote anything.

remember when Cedric the Entertainer. starts he's supposed to be singing. dancing and telling jokes that's why. he's called the Entertainer we found out. he can't sing can't dance and doesn't. write jokes he did four comedy specials. they're so bad Shannon they're not. available on Netflix or tub can I say. that again for the audience they're so. bad that they're not available on. Netflix or Tob you don't think s's a. good a good comedian the world doesn't. think that sir I have 12 comedy specials.

he has four specials that are not. available on Netflix or. Tu it seems to me cat that you had a lot. to get off your chest no no you wanted. to say the rec winners are not allowed. to allow losers to rewrite history I. don't say any of these things if my name. is not breached by these people on your. platform they if you give them liar a. platform to lie then I I'm not being.

messy by saying hold on that never. happened it's untrue and there are. hundreds of witnesses for each thing I'm. saying so let me ask you this what is. your relationship with Steve Harvey. Ricky Smiley and Cedric Entertainer as. you sit here currently they for 30 years. they're a group these aren't three. random guys the way that Ricky Smiley.

kept appearing at all of my auditions is. because of Stephen said he would tell. anybody that listen they got a gang on. that side they know what it is they know. who the gang is why earthquake not in. movies cuz he's a literate he can't read. and they found that out when they gave. him a show and put the cards in front of. him like all of these dudes are co-. entwined and they share secrets and this. is the age of Truth and and and the. truth doesn't need to be scared of the.

fact that people tell lies uh cats on. drugs where are the stories why is there. no story of anybody who ever sold a drug. to me did a drug with me was around me. when I was inebriated I got five. daughters I got five Sons why would we. tell these ridiculous stories because. it's competition you you feel like well. why comedies comedy guys can't just get. along why why didn't you get along with. the other teams you were competing.

against if you're a Denver Bronco why. you don't get along with the Cowboys. something wrong with you but I don't. disagree I don't just like all the. Cowboys cat damn you like just like okay. what comedians do you like did you play. against the team yes I've taken 46. comedians with me on the road 46. okay I'm not the comedian you can give. that to I only put on comedians that are. funnier than me anybody that ever told. you this ly was a fat fison liar there's.

nobody like me in the business on just. called a. straight fison said that getting a. Netflix special is easy I have 12. specials guess how many fison got zero. why is he allowed to have conversations. about real standup people we do not let. people who are on the juice discuss real. athletes that's all as a journalist. that's all that's all I'm saying I don't.

have Harbor any resentment to any of. these entities because I can't be. jealous I've never seen them have. anything that I ever. wanted if you sign up for their program. you get a. lightskinned weird faac wife that never. do an. interview listen in 20 years won't do an. interview nobody's ever talked to her. and she's never been interviewed. anywhere. and now understand I'm not talking about.

one person what I just told you applies. to seven. people how they all end up with that. that's part of what you get I came in. this business saying I was going to. expose when I talked about Michael. Jackson when I talked about R Kelly they. canell me for these things because why. would you talk about another black dude. race is not where the line is drawn it's. God's side and the other side.

and we don't care nothing about the. other side period period all of these uh. big di deviant is all catching hell in. 2024 it's up for all of them it don't. matter if you Diddy or whoever you is TG. Jakes any of them the every all lies. will be exposed that's all and and and. and anyone who takes that the wrong way. know why they take it the wrong. way the truth is the light I need have. another one of these amen amen.

[ __ ] kind of get there all. right after that I don't really kind of. know where to go let me one more. [Laughter]. time right we good now because the. people want to know why would he get. black balls yeah ask because because in. 30 years I've done nothing but. collect information. knowledge and your.

secrets so if you and a man was in a. corner doing something you wasn't. supposed to be doing you will tell it no. somebody come to tell me okay I gather. that I value that I'll pay for that come. tell me I know so many things I. shouldn't know and they all know it they. all know it why because you don't make. me the villain not the guy that raises. black children and ain't never done a. hard drug in his life and don't have no. stories of doing nobody dirty and.

they'll just go out and they'll lie the. the industry doesn't mess with cat cuz. he didn't show up through the studi no. Studios have ever said that look at my. IMDb it will show you that no Studio has. ever lost money with me on the script. how that's why I'm saying that's why I. can't let Ricky Smiley say he was. supposed to play Money Mike because I. wrote the words for Money Mike I. designed the hair for Money Mike I. collaborated with the Wardrobe. Department and made outfits to make sure.

that no one in America would be wearing. What Money Mike was wearing I told them. to go get the prowler I then told him to. paint it purple I told him don't have a. actor at playing a pimp we could get an. actual pimp Archbishop Magic Don Juan to. play like I I did far too much work for. somebody to come years later and try to. tag along just for their own self. aggrandisement why didn't Cube set the. record straight Terry Cruz could have.

set the record straight Mike EPS could. have set the record straight why none of. them set the record straight that's what. you were supposed to ask him when he. told you those lies that no one's ever. heard right but he's telling you. something no one's ever heard of nobody. has ever heard oh Matt a Ben Affleck and. Matt Damon was in a movie and somebody. said y'all should switch roles like this. is a business but that's the thing K. normally when people will give you. information I'm thinking I'm hearing it. for the first time and they're giving. information no one else knows or have. ever heard so I'm taking them at face.

value these are like this is like Steve. Harvey telling people he used to be. homeless that's my story that's not his. story Steve Harvey was never homeless. when he Mark Curry was touring with him. 25 years ago he was making $3,000 a show. in cash and doing five shows a week did. they just tell the stories this my. thanks to my wife I'm where I am you. said that about the first wife you. forget that you told us it was her then. you went and married somebody else that.

think like a man like what are you. talking about they just they think they. can rewrite history that uh uh guy Tori. did a beautiful special about The Comedy. Store in Fat Tuesday where he said that. Steve and Cedric and Kevin Hart and. Tiffany hadish came through there and. made all lies Stephen Cedric never. performed at The Comedy Store at all. Tiffany was only seen at the lab Factory. in 15 years in Hollywood no one in. Hollywood has a memory of going to a.

sold out Kevin Hart show there being a. line for him ever getting a standing. ovation at any Comedy Club he already. had his deals when he got here have we. heard of a comedian that came to LA and. in his first year in La he had his own. sitcom on network television and had his. own movie called Soul Plane that he was. leading no we've never heard of that. before that person or since that person. what do you think a plant is. maybe people don't understand the.

definitions of these. words he just did his documentary with. Chris Rock where he shows you that his. whole upbringing and comedy was on the. East Coast yeah it was so how. simultaneously was he here in Los. Angeles doing the same thing it didn't. happen it didn't happen and I I I hate. to seem like a petty individual for. picking apart lies but Jesse smle gonna.

keep lying until you say we don't. believe you like it's important in the. checks and balances of the universe that. Liars not get to make complete. narratives for themselves are you not. afraid about being black balled again. these are some power people what do you. mean again these people are not powerful. Satan can't create. anything that includes blessings for his. people that's why you know what the. number one job of somebody that they. soul in Hollywood is what is to act like.

it didn't. happen they all do the same. job why do you think Gary Owen can't. cross over and he already white and been. in comedy for 25 years if what I say. ain't the. case it's a cabal it's a it's a. Consortium they they rock with who they. rock with and they don't with who they. don't but I'm not scared of being the. competition anymore than you were when. you lined up a across from a superior.

team yeah on paper they're a better team. right they have all the assets and. resources and we don't but let us get on. the line boy boy and see if that factors. in I I guarantee you it won't. wow because Shannon sharp got to be a. different person than that other. person absolutely and he always was that. doesn't change when I change teams That. Remains the Same that's how a legacy is. built all of these shortcut takers I I.

was they cancelled me for talking about. Harvey Weinstein before the thing came. out but he offered to suck my penis in. front of all my people at my agency what. am I supposed to do he did all of that. I'm thinking I'm the only black person. on the script I get there it's three. other black guys on there woo huh so you. wonder what they need to get I told him. no what y'all. do and this is why when I walk in a room. heads go. down behind my back I'm nothing I'm just.

a regular old comedian that's bitter and. jealous but in my face no no no the King. has walked in and they have to respect. it only because I've not taken the. shortcuts I've not been funded they pay. you to not talk about things they don't. want you to talk about they tell you. that themselves I can't do that cuz I. Steve told you that he stopped doing. standup because he had 17 TV shows the. only problem is when he stopped standup.

he didn't have those seven TV shows he. stopped standup because he got in a. comedy battle called the championship of. standup comedy with one Cat Williams in. Detroit in front of 10,000 people and. lost because Cat Williams said he was. actually bald and that was a wig and I. went in and that's why he couldn't do. standup anymore imagine him coming to. tell you another story where he got so. big and it was burn ER and them's fault. cuz they wanted to be movie.

stars. what you called ocean 11 to get that. nigga's. part what do you mean you didn't want to. be a movie star so on the behalf of. Bernie I I would have to say what I have. to say have you ever been have you ever. been on tour with any of these guys the. guy I every guy I mentioned to you is. not funny out there in real life. so.

no Faison's never done his own tour in. 30 years Steve Harvey don't do stand up. no more Cedric doesn't write I'm sorry. he doesn't write Ricky Smiley has been. playing the same old black woman forever. like you can't get a young fan base with. that like you got to be doing karaoke. around the country to make that work. right and he. is but I'm a standup comedian this is my.

19th 100 City Tour I'm not going to have. a conversation with these lazy bums. that'll take a shortcut at any point yes. it's easier for you to juice than to get. in the gym but you don't get to bring. that body in here talking crazy talk. about how good you look. what no no there's too many Comics out. there that are putting their life on the. line to tell these jokes man okay let's. get to your upbringing we G to Circle.

back and we get huh I want to protect it. real quick you had said for the Kings of. Comedy it was in 2018 2019 but did you. mean. 1999 because it came out in 2000 so I. just want to make I no no no so what I. meant to say was remember he said I. couldn't do standup anymore I had seven. TV shows I said he didn't have any of. those TV shows at the time you about you. about Cedric joke stealer fromed. you said that 2018 2019 but it came out.

in 2000 so I just want to make sure okay. no no no no no what comes out in 200000. the original Kings of Comedy right my. I'm on BET's Comic View and they're. using this as the commercial in. 1998 that's why I'm saying yeah so if I. yeah so if I said the dates. wrong yes let's go back and clear that. up okay you said yeah I had Cedric on. here and I asked him about the jok. stealing said the timeline doesn't add.

up correct to your to to that point you. say right so he thought that I was just. a non-name comedian and that he could. take this joke and nobody would know. right the issue was that I had already. done this particular joke on BET's Comic. View twice right it had done so well on. BET's Comic View that they have made it. part of the commercial so part of the. commercial of make sure you tune in to D. was you seeing me doing this joke and.

this joke is one of those jokes in. comedy where you set it up and it takes. a little longer to set it up takes about. 3 minutes but then you're just hitting. them with jokes after that cuz you don't. have to set it up right uh Mark Curry. had already helped me work on this joke. because I thought it was good cuz I was. getting a standing ovation on it he had. me go back in the lab and help me craft. it to be an even more powerful joke so. this is not just a random joke this is. my very best joke. and it's my last joke and it's my.

closing joke okay. 1998 I'm doing this joke it's on Comic. View Cedric comes to The Comedy Store he. watches me in the audience he comes. backstage he tells me what a great job I. did and how much he loves the joke two. years later he's doing that as his last. joke on the Kings of Comedy and he's. doing it verbatim he's just changed my. car into a.

spaceship him and Steve had already. apologized for me so I gave him a pass. for a. decade why would you sit here and be. like I talked to I saw cat 30. times and Cat didn't do as I stand. before you. Shannon I would have bust Cedric's. stomach there was nothing that would. have kept me me from one of these in in.

that patch right there like are you. kidding me why would you downplay me. like that why did I give you a pass if. you were just going to lie and so that's. what I'm saying like they're all a group. Cedric Steve Ricky they've been a group. everybody knows that they've been. aligned and and there are these. alliances in comedy and if you stand. against them then they sometimes have a. problem but we don't let that change the. content because that's all you know me. for is that I'm quite likely to tell the.

whole truth and nothing but the truth so. help me God can you believe we're this. deep into the NFL season we got to make. every second count with draftking.

Williams upbringing like your parents. were Jehovah Witness you were a a. prodigy you were brilliant you talked to. me that you got accepted in college at. seven years of age you can read fluently. at three years of age so having that. kind of knowledge having that kind of uh. of of of of prodigy or so what was so I.

mean was it what was your upbringing how. how was it how was life as Cat Williams. crunk coming. up um I. I I was often confused because I knew. things and I wasn't sure how I knew. them um I knew things that I felt like I. don't have a reason that I I know know. this but I I love to read um I was.

voracious because they told me when I. was young that knowledge was. powerful uh that knowledge was power and. and I had studied powerful people and I. I um I really believe that I I I. immediately my next project was to read. the whole Encyclopedia set so when. you're like six seven years old you read. the whole encyclopedia said you think. you one of the smartest people in the. world only to get out in the world and. find out you don't know anything you.

know so it um it was a it was a. confusing time but yeah I had a. childhood I I was grown but I I at 5. years old I was in front of 5 10,000. people given a performance with a full. suit and tie on you know what I mean so. it hasn't it had it it it came full. circle um for my life I knew that the. Applause and um the giving of.

information and laughs and Truth to. people somehow benefited them and also. benefited you and. um yeah so when they would ask me what I. wanted to be everything that I would say. that I wanted to be was something that. didn't exist and they would never give. me credit for it because I needed to say. um a doctor or a lawyer but that's not. what I wanted to be so your parents w't. as supportive as you would have hoped. because you were wanting to be things.

when you got older that they had no. knowledge of or it didn't exist at the. time no it it wasn't that it it was. um I'm saying. I'm I'm almost a 100 years old right now. but if we go outside right now I can run. a. 4340 or or a sub I can do a 416 if I. there Jimmy John across the street we. can order a sub. but um oh you've been on the submarine.

that what you saw so. um so back then it was even greater so. you got this guy that all the coaches. want to play don't do that hold on. because I'm I'm 5 foot five in the fifth. grade I've been this size my whole life. like there was a portion of school where. I was one of the big dudes like it just. as soon as everybody caught they gross. spurt I was out of there but I'm I'm. saying I was a competitive individual my.

father was an aete like like like no. I've been 145 lbs my whole career that's. why I never bothered when they said your. cats on drugs I knew how you going to. prove that. I'm my body is a temple i' I've been the. same size since I was 10 like what do. you yeah like I I haven't I haven't. changed off this pivot foot this has. always been who I was before standup or. anything but it was a um it was. interesting childhood I I I appreciate.

my parents even though um I couldn't. live within the religious Frameworks of. what they had set up um but that was. more not wanting to live a double life. and not want to embarrass my family you. know what I mean because I read where a. form of punishment for you is that they. would take books because you mentioned. you were such a voracious reader and a. form of punishment was when they would. to take the books for because you could. read fluently you you you told me how. like three or four years old you could. read read read not not just a a little.

child's book but you could read read. well I'm saying when we when we go to. Haiti to do missionary work understand. that my mother and my father nobody. that's there with us speaks French and I. mean it speaks Creole and reads French. so I'm in charge of everything from the. housing to the cars to the The Gardener. like I I'm saying so I'm not just. reading I'm reading in multiple. languages like I'm I'm probably reading.

3,000 books a year from the time that. I'm 8 years old to the time that I'm. 12 no no no fiction books at all I'm. only reading. nonfiction you could drive at 12 you. received a full scholarship to the. National Science Academy in Dayton Ohio. but you failed so you couldn't become so. you would become ineligible why didn't. you want to take that opportunity. I didn't see it as an opportunity when I.

got in there all the students were. wearing lab coats and it seemed very. confined and restricted and nobody. seemed like they were having fun it just. seemed like everybody was smart I I. didn't want that that was that wasn't. what I was signing up for at all and. plus um I thought that I was I Jesus was. my big homie so you know how you get a. story about a dude joined the gang you. get a big home right like at this. particular point in my life. I'm my thought is that the Bible is the.

greatest book that's ever been written. okay that it houses the truth and that. it gives you this story of Jesus and. that I'm supposed to be like him okay so. I it's already in my head that as soon. as I get 13 I'm. leaving you you you at 13 you don't only. like okay Mom I'm moving out you moov. from Ohio to Florida on your. own you weren't afraid I mean you like. did. you did you not so what were you so what.

were you going to do when you got to. Florida don't say I wasn't afraid. there's no such thing as a human being. of not being afraid okay there are. certain human beings that understand. that being afraid in no way stops you. from doing what you got to do okay so um. I I was afraid um but I couldn't be that. afraid because I knew what had happened. with Jesus I knew how it worked out I I. I knew that I wasn't in the wrong with.

how I was feeling and I knew that I I. didn't have any bad intentions in it. right so I trusted God that it will work. out why. Florida um because I if you're raised in. Ohio the one thing on your list is I'm. going to get away from snow and I'm. going get as far I want to go tell me. the place I literally went to a truck. stop and I asked all the truck drivers. where they was going and there was one. guy going to California and it was one. guy going to FL Florida and they told me. how long it was going to take and so.

that's why I ended up in Miami because. how do you get there you c a bus or no I. just told you I was at the truck stop I. he I got in I didn't hitchhike I got in. the back of the dude's 18-wheeler me and. my Rottweiler puppy and my. suitcase yeah because I was I probably. had $2,500 on me like I like I was. shoveling snow and cutting grass like I. always had Pockets full of money when. did you make the decision that you were. going to leave Ohio and go somewhere and.

it ended up being Florida so but when. did you know that you were leaving. Dayton Ohio going to. Florida and my father and I's last. interaction. um somebody could have not made it and. we both. understood that was all bad what was the. disagreement about. um if if you say that my family is very.

religious let just say I'm not so. anything that I I'm going to do is not. is going to fall out of the guidelines. right but I'm not going to let you tell. me what I'm going to be even especially. if what you're saying is wrong I can't. condone wrong and if I find out that. something is wrong and I tell you it's. wrong and you don't back me. that's what it is even as a young child.

you were willing to tell your parents. that some of the things that you're. saying doesn't coincide with what I've. been reading in in in the Bible no no. very simply don't don't try to. disfellowship me for sexual acts and I'm. a virgin Sorry God Don't Make Mistakes. you don't get two times to [ __ ] me over. what do you mean you went to God and he. told you I was guilty just lied on God. so long that's it there's no.

conversation. Deuces that's what it was that's when. you made the decision after that. conversation right there you say no I. can't I can't live under this roof it. wasn't a conversation it was an. altercation in the altercation I love my. father my father loved me but we are two. men at it that it'll never be the same. again you can't sleep comfortably around. me and I can't sleep comfortably around. you how similar are you to your.

father um I don't I don't know he's a. great man I'm I'm saying uh like y but y. butted. heads right but I'm saying that. generally happens with a Father's son. Dynamic it was just that um religious. relationships are always difficult in. families they always are before he got. to the point. because the dynamic he's father your son.

before that Dynamic and you step up on. his level and you challenge him you felt. it was best for you to leave no no no. I'm not being challenged I'm being Beat. to Death oh he was abusing I didn't say. that I said we were in an. altercation oh I see what you did there. I saw what you did there I saw what you. did there cat I saw what you did you was. in alocation you didn't say you lost you. say you. alation I in no way gave you the.

impression that I won anything I'm the. one leaving I'm out of bounds this his. house right yeah so as long as I'm going. to be under his roof there are certain. things that I'm going to have to do. right and the only way that's going to. change is either this or that and I I'm. saying I had two younger brothers like. I'm not I'm not a a reasonable person. like I don't have any mental issues.

whatsoever despite what they lead people. to believe you know I make good pretty. good decisions were you not so how was. their relationship with your father were. you not afraid to leave. them well I asked because it it went all. the way to the actual department so it. was actually going to be something um. and when I asked them if they could just. make sure that my brothers didn't get. separated and what so have you um they.

said they couldn't make those type of. guarantees that they weren't really sure. what would happen if this went down and. so part of leaving was the hope that it. would be okay for them because n none of. them experienced what I experienced I'm. saying I'm the oldest it's a out riding. on me I'm supposed to at least. religiously hold down the family's name. at this household you know what I mean. how much older are you than the baby and.

the knee baby like a lot older like I if. I'm I 12 13 yeah they're. five. and in Pampers. wow you go to Florida you tell the story. I've heard you you were homeless and. somebody else told the story said they. were homeless and you said they they. hijacked your story now I don't hey I.

don't at 13 I shouldn't have to tell you. I'm homeless I'm in a I'm in Miami. Florida I have no family members in. Florida I couldn't buy a house if I. wanted to I couldn't get an apartment if. I wanted to I don't have a credit. history like this is not a stretch for. me to say that I'm homeless I'm I'm. living in a park in coka Grove the park. still exists to this day for eight hours. a day I would get up and go to the.

library and study for eight hours a day. to increase my education and then I. would leave out of there and go to the. marina and steal car radios and make. $2,000 almost. daily like I had a routine this so you. really could have played that s old thie. and Santa Claus you could have played it. no the Santa Claus wasn't a thief the. the Santa Claus you can't tell me I read. the script Ricky Smiley told you he. didn't read the script the the Santa.

Claus was a crackhead he just had that. outfit on that's what I couldn't have. played okay like I couldn't have played. a black guy that got raped in the. bathroom. right so at any point in time you like. man I made a mistake man I should have. stayed my butt in Ohio man cuz this is. Man this ain't what I signed up for I. didn't experience anything once I left. home that I hadn't signed up. for if anything it my life me being. homeless for that small period of time.

allowed me to see all of the people that. were in that situation and to see that. these were lawyers and doctors and and. teachers and that these people were. white and black and Asian and Indian and. the only thing that all of these. homeless people had in in in common was. um they made a bad decision and aligned. themselves with drugs and I interviewed. them all what drug what and guess what.

Shannon nobody had a great story nobody. had a great story of what meth had done. for them what crack had done for them. what cocaine had done for them what. heroin had done for them what speed had. done for them nobody had them stories. everybody's story was I had my life. together and then I decided to do this. dumb thing and I lost my wife I lost my. house I lost lost my cars I lost my. reputation and now I'm now out here.

sucking penis in the. woods what talk about Scared Straight. you ain't got to worry about. me if it ain't we the nicotine you won't. see me touching it I don't want no parts. I didn't seen what these things can do. to people anything that take over your. free will is the devil itself have you. ever thought about what your life would. have been had you stayed in Dayton.

Ohio no that that's like asking somebody. that's in the NBA for 14 years like what. would happened if you didn't come to the. NBA oh I shutter to think I I I thought. it was what I was made for I thought it. was what I was built for anybody that. knows me will tell you that when they. first met Cat Williams when I was Cat in. the Hat and they tell these stories. about how he changed his name look the. truth of the matter is Disney sued me.

yeah I was Cat in the Hat they sent me a. cease and deist letter and I'm not even. making. $25,000 a year and the mega company. Disney has sent me a Sease and assist. telling me I can't use any variations of. that name fine I'm Cat Williams that's. all that happened I have been this same. product the entire time they will tell. you when they first saw me doing standup. I was just like this. this is what I bring this my.

style when did it when did you know you. was going you want were you always funny. did you always want to be a comedian how. did you stumble on a comedians ship no I. I I loved what they did and so I studied. them all of them I studied all of the. white comedians because I wanted to know. why is Monty Python funny why is Don not. so talented I wanted to know. what is George Carlin's thing like where.

so I studied all of the comedy Masters. regardless of the field because I loved. to laugh I didn't know that these people. were making a great living at doing this. I thought this is just what they did. they tell jokes they're funny people but. I loved the craft and that's why when I. got into the craft I thought it was my. obligation to make sure that I kept. writing new material so much that it.

forced these comedians to stop doing the. set they've been doing for 10 years and. keep writing some new stuff and I knew. that if I could get that to take on that. most of these bums would have to just. quit comedy cuz they can't keep up. they're not going to keep writing an. hour worth of material I've written an. hour worth of material 19 times they not. going to do it why cuz they're not. creative writers they want to get. somebody else and have them write it and. put it.

together so if I'm listening to you. correct correct me if I'm wrong I think. the best thing that ever happened was. the internet because now they have to. because normally like you said you could. do a set and you do that do that that. set in Kansas City people ain't heard it. in San Francisco people ain't hurt it in. Miami they ain't heard in Detroit. Chicago Atlanta so forth and so on now. you do a set it's on the internet. somebody heard it so you can't do a set. and make it make it last three months. four.

months. well it it doesn't allow the regular. comic the ability to grow is the real. problem like the part of Comedy is me. taking these jokes in January and by. March I've begun to craft this joke okay. it's not as simple as it was when I. wrote it it was just da da da da but now. it has the. complexities of the fact that I'm having. to deliver this to a East Coast audience.

a Down South audience a Midwest audience. a Utah audience a Colorado audience and. so it begins to take on a different. complexion because you're having to. deliver it to different people okay and. so this is what sharpens your joke you. then take those sharpened jokes that. make us special not you just randomly. take some so it's a process you don't. allow them to process if the first time. the guy did the joke now that's his joke.

and the joke is everywhere that just. sets it up for people to steal so how. many times must you tell a joke before. you master. it how many times have you had to sleep. with a woman before you done with. her that's not fair if it's great. never if if it if if it ceases to have. usefulness so it has been.

spoken right I was I I read that you was. raised in in in Florida you had some. some help some ladies of the. night no no no that's not true no that. whole story doesn't take place in. Florida that story takes place in. Oklahoma City okay so after I'm in. Florida I then join um I try to join the. Marine Corps and they won't accept me. because I'm I'm too young and I've lied. and told him I'm 16 and my family is.

moving down and I don't have my ID but. it's coming and so they let me go to the. boot camp that's not going to work now. okay so I've learned that lesson so then. I get this job selling stuff door too um. across the country and so I've been to. all 50 states again I'm third 14 years. old um so I did that at while I'm doing. that one of the places I'm at I'm in. Oklahoma and I've decided I'm going to. stay here because of meeting these.

ladies that you're talking about and. that. situation I don't know at the time why. that's important in my life or why it's. something I should be doing or any of. that but now later on it certainly helps. me in formulating Money Mike for Friday. after next and uh pimp Nam slickback uh. for The. Boondocks San Oklahoma so San Francisco. Oklahoma Sacramento from Florida you. moved to the West. Coast after so you traveling when did.

you set up shop on the west. coast how old were you been so I I guess. I'm uh 18 or younger and I um once I. have my once I have a child I realize. that um I can't it's a lot of things. that I could use to make money that now. is noo so anything with Street. aspirations that I might have thought.

about pursuing or been good at um I now. am a single parent and I got to redo. these things so I need comedy to really. work out for me and me and God go into. um extreme conversation where I'm. explaining to him that I'm a crash out. dummy if he don't send me a Lifeline. like I need something I can hold on to. before I had left Florida I did stand up. one time cuz we was trying to get in the.

club I didn't have ID so I said I was a. comedian they end up having me do five. minutes but I kept that in my head that. I had done that when we get to Oklahoma. they're having a competition for standup. and if you win you get to go out on the. road with uh Jeff Foxworthy and Dan. Whitney who is Larry the Cable Guy and. Richard Jenny and these great Comics you. get to open for him and once I did that. I realized okay as a comedian I'm like.

way behind schedule I didn't started. this too late all the funny guys are. already funny and known names like how. am I going to progress so I realized. that I I I do better with a white. audience than I do with a black audience. and I I'm not sure why that's occurring. but the white audience likes me more. that's that's interesting so when I move. to Sacramento is because Sacramento has.

a white and a black audience almost 5050. that's almost the makeup of Sacramento. so I live in Sacramento for two years. until I get to the point where I am. equally as funny if the room is black as. I am if the room is white okay that's. not enough now I need to be one of the. good ones when it comes to Black Comics. so now I have to move to Oakland and. that's what lands me in in Oakland for 3. years once I have.

dominated uh male black comedy in. Oakland to. my liking now I'm prepared to go to Los. Angeles now now I know you can't throw. me any curve balls if it's a white. audience if it's a black audience no. matter what they are I'm prepared to. deal with all of the. audiences do you write jokes according. to the audience that you're going to be. in front of or or is your joke.

Universal well in in the beginning I. part of my framework is that I'm. tailoring every show to this audience. okay and that's how I was able to show. my range and show that I was better than. my competitors is that I'm Cat Williams. but I was still doing clean comedy so I. was still going to churches and doing 45. minutes of stand up at the church with. no curse words no sex drug material no. none of that just straight standup and.

then I was doing everything else and I. every regular clue yeah that was that. was the range is that where when in Rome. do as the Romans do so um that's how I. started um but as you begin to get. better you begin to be able to speak to. your entire fan base and that's really. what's been helpful is that I've been. having the same conversation with my fan. base for 12 comedy.

specials is that what said Cat Williams. apart is your range is that you can do a. comedy do 45 minutes in the church I can. go to a comedy club in front of 250 or I. can go into arena with. 15,000 that's range cuz everybody can't. do that cat well if that's what range is. called then then then yeah it's range. but I I like the people I'm talking to.

you see what I'm saying so it's not it's. not like um it can't be. condescending because I'm talking to my. white male friend when I'm telling that. white joke right when I'm talking about. this joke about this black lady I know. that black lady that's who I'm talking. to I'm I'm I'm I'm speaking to this fan. base that I've been speaking to from the. beginning I already told them what I was. on when I first came in I told him they. was going to come after after me they. was going to cancel me they was going to. say terrible things about me and try to.

mess my life up I I said that coming in. to stand up I'm I'm saying it in my so. you knew it was going to be it has to be. I know I'm going into the belly of the. Beast how could I be naive I know that. I'm going into Satan's playground but. I'm trying to be so good that you got to. bring me in so close that I can see. who's doing what and what's going on in. there in San Francisco you join the. nation. I was ever in San Francisco I was in. Oakland you was in Oakland did you join.

the nation is that yeah Minister. honorable Minister faran and I have um. an extremely close relationship he he. refers to me um as one of his sons so um. yeah I I spent a period of. time let me explain yes because my. particular background was already relig. and super strict right I didn't find out.

about other religions by reading about. them I went to their religion I I I. don't want to learn from Jewish people. from outside I want to be in a synagogue. I want to I I don't want to learn about. Muslim people from I I want to be in the. mosque I I I don't want to hear about. the Baptist or the Pentecostal I want to. go to their church and see and so that. was the religious discovery that I was. on through that period in my life when. did you know you were.

funny probably. um about 10 years ago like 10 years ago. yeah about 10 years AG so you didn't. think so you didn't think as a child. because obviously you said the very. structure background your family is was. very religious so obviously you didn't. get an opportunity um and yeah like I. never did a talent show I was never any. any extracurricular activities I was. never in drama I was never in band camp.

I was never boy you stay School long. enough to get funny cuz you Dro you. understand you understand so there was. no like I. don't I don't tolerate high school games. I didn't go to high school I don't I. don't know how most of the games they. think I play I'm not even aware of them. but but C for you to get on stage and. like I said a lot of people like a lot. of comedians I had a few here they're. like okay you know I told jokes to get.

girls I told jokes to you know get. people to laugh at someone else but you. is like at you say you did comedy one. time in Florida yeah and you had this. other opportunity like in Oklahoma that. they were going to take you out if you. won the talent show you was going to go. on the road with these these well-known. Comedians and I did but I'm just saying. how at in Florida at 13 14 years of age. you like 16 I can do that. well because I knew that there were a. lot of other things I could do like when.

I looked at drug dealers I thought I. could do that yeah you so right and who. doesn't like that right huh I'm trying. to figure out how I'm going to make it. but now that I got to do it on this side. I but no you your question was when did. I think I was funny I never was my. biggest fan to this day I'm not the. biggest fan I'm a fan of Comedy I like. great comedians like I like Chappelle I. like Patrice O'Neal like I like the.

greats of Comedy because I do like I I. like Ron White I like Bill inol like I. know Comics like people that did the. craft they raised me I was touring with. Steve Marell and Richard Jenny and real. journeyman so my comedy upbringing was. standard I thought you had to work all. night every night all around the country. you had to write jokes and that you were. trying to write jokes that other people. weren't writing and that your job was to.

be funnier like I people that know me. will tell you I've been on this like I I. had a list of all the black comedians. that were more famous than me there was. 300 of them on the list and I had to be. able to cross them all out before I. could make it to the next level before I. felt like I was funny enough to do that. and so I. I I I appreciate what competition does. for sports and for my particular sport a.

and comedy is a sport what gave you the. comence that you could get on. stage you remember I was 5 years old on. stage. okay but I was re reiterating God's word. at that point now I just have to make. sure that the content is good if the. content is good what part can I not do. I'm a vessel he's giv me these gifts to. be able to do certain things so I just. want to utilize them in my craft that's.

all do you remember your first. set mhm how long 5 10 minutes no no um I. I think three minutes three minutes yeah. Standing Ovation booze some Applause. some jeers no none of that they they. applauded like I was a professional at. it but now looking back I understand. because you had to understand they were. all thinking he don't even look old. enough to be in here and we don't have. any black guys that live in this town.

right where did he come from and then he. gets up there and for three minutes he. talk about the fact that he is the. entire black community. right and he is as disappointed in them. it looked like they looking for where. the rest of them is and so is he and. that was his set but I understood from. that point that the truth is really the. commodity and the fact that that um we. are all individuals and all separate and.

all our own Islands but not in real life. in real life it's only five or six. different types of people and you going. to see them everywhere that you go and. all like all my enemies all look the. same in the eyes whether it's faon wand. Aries Spears they all look like bab what. you got to get W sight you think I don't. remember that's sir Wanda Sykes and. Wanda Smith are two separate people I. mean wand Smith W Smith only say one. name Sir W W wand SES is amazing I love.

Wanda and I agree I love W that's my. girl but I I remember on the radio you. went on the radio interview if I'm not. mistaken that's in Atlanta right and you. came on there with seemingly good. intentions and she attacked you it. wasn't just that part it was the fact. that before I go in there she has a. conversation about okay. now I just want to talk to you because. you just wanted Emy for the City of. Atlanta and this isn't Atlanta and they.

just want to hear about the Emy and hear. from you and the thank you for what you. did putting the city on and we won't. talk about your kids we won't talk about. jail no cases we ain't going to talk. about none of that and immediately gets. in there and goes the opposite way you. can't flip up on me because you're an. inferior comedian I'm going to destroy. you and I'm never going to call you out. of your name I'm never going to say. anything disrespectful the people that. look like you I'm it's a very thin line.

I got a call but this lady is trying to. embarrass me in front of a largely. homosexual fan base that's why she got. cancelled gay people don't take it. kindly that you would as a. derogatory call me gay gay people don't. feel like it's derogatory so why are you. trying to shame me with something in a. community I don't even belong in there's. no gay people saying I belong over there. or been over there but I have no hatred.

of over there and how dare you you did a. number on it though hey you did a number. on it that that's legendary no you. either believe in karma or you don't. because I didn't even know any of the. stuff that she had done to my fellow. comedians until afterwards I just know. she that it was a setup right and and. remember they they tried to kill me this. same weekend not in jokes with a real. gun in my real face on real camera.

understand I'm losing my life for. participating in something that goes. along with my job like there two. comedians what do you mean and and the. world was okay with it because it was me. had that happened to anyone else the. world went crazy when will smack smacked. Chris this is a person pulling a whole. gun on a comedian in. the confines of their job it's it's.

really a weird situation uh when they. hate you that bad yeah yeah you felt she. hated you at that moment because you you. mentioned that she said it was going to. be very professional oh you want an Emy. congratulations you put the city on you. own for the city yada y yada and now did. she mention anything about the Emy on. camera I believe you saw the video and. you know that none of that took place. Place see. the the issue is that um all the.

comedians have to come do these radio. stations because you have to sell your. tickets and so that means you have to go. to the radio. station I don't go to the radio station. and I don't make post to sell tickets I. just don't so you've not seen me I'm I. haven't I'm not here in some subservient. position where somebody sent me over I'm. you hear out of the kindness of your. heart you. are no no I'm.

saying yes yes situation yeah for sure. yeah and this person knew I wasn't there. for that or yeah it's but how hard. because you have to understand she is a. female and so you have to be careful you. have to handle her with kid gloves sir. sir you want to go ahead and take that. out you don't want to be against. equality do you no no what you just said. was very unequal Siro but I think maybe.

you've had enough of. this because I think I just heard you. say but you that women are not equal and. should be treated unequally I they want. to be treated as a comedian no no they. want listen you understand and I. understand yeah in certain situations. they want to be treated equal not all. situations and and what part of what you. saw her. get oh she deserved everything you gave.

her what part would have been different. if she was a. man it would have just been more vicious. yeah that that's that's my point that's. my point I took all the vicious and then. them away because I didn't have any plus. I understood I'm not trying to offend. black women with short hair I'm not. trying to offend heavys set women I'm. not trying to upset fellow comedians I'm. not trying to do any of that and I can't. I am qualified to be able to do none of.

that and still eviscerate you because. I'm smart enough to know that I need to. say that you have gnarled fingers. because I know your limited education. means you don't know what the word means. so you can't possibly respond to it. you're not sure of the meaning and I'm. going to continue hitting you because. this is what comedians do you've been. masquerading that you're a comedian to. and that's the fallacy so nobody in. boxing fights out of their weight.

class if you're a 130 pounder you don't. just show up with the 160 Pounders you. stay in your weight class is that what. you wanted to do no that she was out of. her League when it came to because I. didn't want to do any of it I know you. didn't want to but once she took it. there you did you feel that you had to. go. there oh you could you could have said. Wanda I didn't come here for that I just. want to do the an VI I just want to talk. about what happened oh you misunderstand. my job my my job is to be.

funny my job is to be funny first my. first job is to be funny my second job. is to be respectful my third job is to. be Immaculate and Gaza stripp it huh. that's nonpolitical I'm saying if you do. a you let a terrorist accidentally touch. over here and I won't stop burning you. down until there ain't nothing left. it'll literally be Rubble on top of. rubble and I'll still be bombing why.

because that's why you should mind your. business this is what F around and find. out is about. right have you ever been boo. cat. um yes. yeah I have what was that feeling like.

did it like want to give up cuz we don't. I mean because when you have I mean I. don't know how early it was in your. career obviously it hadn't been in the I. don't think it's in the last decade. because you've been. immaculate have you ever dropped a pass. I. have I've been booed too you know the. little segment. between everything is fine and I got. it and then you noticing where it is now.

mhm yeah it's that um the thing about as. a. comedian the audience's opinion is the. only opinion that matters not you the. writer not none of that and so I don't. think any comedian has ever been booed. unnecessarily. either they they deserve oh yeah yeah. I'm I'm saying I'm saying I'm saying. what what do they say when a guy shoots.

the air ball in the NBA they say airball. to make sure everybody knows but again. he still got to get back on D right like. the game didn't end he don't get to. throw his hands up and Suk right that's. supposed to be used as a learning. experience most comedians don't get. booed. enough I mean this is how you end up. with a Michael blackon who's a real. African doing a fake African Act. okay this guy is mad at me all I did was. give him the best advice of his life.

remember he was wearing dirty dasi and I. told him he needed to dress to be in the. position that he's trying to say that. he's in and if you're the African king. of comedy sir there's actually comedians. in Africa doing comedy if you going to. say that you got to go to Africa and get. a school dude everybody got you you got. to put in some work and these guys they. take my advice they change their whole. persona and and then they hate me for it. and generally I'm just too big to.

comment or make a statement about it or. do a live or any of that but when it. gets to be a whole grouping of these. guys I got to come and talk to. [Laughter]. Shannon I got to lay it down at the. altar you know every comedian that's. this is the other side of Kirk Franklin. prank this is the Reckoning. 2024 the Reckoning you watch that you.

know every comedian that's been on my. show you know you watched every episode. cuz you know that's not what you said. you said I know every ComEd you know. every comedian you limiting me oh you. watched every episode because you you. you know things you know things I. that that's always where I'm trying to. come from whether it's comedic or. otherwise that's why even if you see me. get arrested 10 times in a row on TV as.

a fan of mine you can be like he going. to be right. out yeah but they just said he ain't do. it he couldn't have it's. stupid why would he do something stupid. knowing he got to come back and talk to. us n they they respect that every time. it happens I'm going to be free as a. bird sitting out here talking to you. about it that it really was what I said. it was that's. all you end up you come down you're in. La yeah now I'm.

reading Cat Williams won Cedric the. entertainers and haer Bush best best Los. Angeles comic award did you win that. award one Cat. Williams is a simple yes or no it's not. a rhetorical question it's a question. that probably should have been asked to. SED the Entertainer I'm asking you I got. you here I know I couldn't believe SRA. didn't get asked that. question you still a D's joking to give.

a award and then 10 years later you. don't know nothing about. it hey but I but I promise you this what. if he sees me again before he sees you. he'll be talking different when you see. him that's for certain that's the. difference that's what these Comics. understand is that I'm not doing nothing. for clout I don't even recognize. clout but eventually the Lord is going. to let me and you be in one.

hallway a lot of these dudes. go Kevin Harden went 25 years without. ever being in the same building with me. at the same time if I go in the building. he walk out you've never seen us in the. same building ever in 25 years like it's. like that why why because I'm really. product it's not what you think I am. never under the influence of anything.

I'm always in my right mind I'm always a. physical specimen and when you see me. I'm much much bigger than you had. thought I have far less play in me than. you would like and I'm Relentless I'm. out there I'm still to this day I play. 11 games of basketball with a 20 year. old. the record is 992 and. six this is just in the yard just to the.

rack just cuz you work out cat I mean. know you work out cat not to the gym you. don't work out in the gym you push-ups. situps I my whole life it was um it was. just push-ups and situps only I would do. like um 100 push-ups a day just I. thought you GNA say a thousand no no no. because this is literally every day this. is not for the yeah for the gram you. know what I mean like literally 100 a. day and I would do push-ups and then I. tore both my rotator cuffs and so it was.

only thanks to golf that I was even able. to get my golf back I've been a golfer. for quite some time my short game is. impeccable I I I can't get you but but. twoing some change off of the um tea off. the tea but I'm still I'm I'm I'm still. coming in for par. guaranteed you playing for the tips. uh no i' I found that you don't get. anything for that it seems like it seems.

very ego maniacal they go hey cat for. free you can go further. back hey wait a minute does it still. count the same hey I'm up at the ladi's. tea don't tell me my. pronouns on the golf course I'm she her. him them and they whoever whoever the. front te. we're I know we're joking we're having a. great conversation but you did win the. award how did the award help your career.

it had to help something cat nope no. come on I didn't remember it it happened. to you just said it SE how can Cedric. give you an award that was worth. something everything Cedric and Ricky. Smiley ever been in got cancelled for. not being. funny Ricky sat here and told you that. they cut him out of every movie he did. they always had a reason right.

that's why I'm funny cuz I'm a happy. person I laugh all day long I can't even. imagine the misery of these. bumps just to not be good at what you do. not work hard at what you do but have to. act like you're the best at what you do. it is crazy it's crazy but they be. touring they they they be doing like a. 100 shows a year that's me. [Laughter]. I don't run into none of. them that's what I'm saying if you a f.

on love fan you mean you've been a fan. of him for 32 years you still waiting on. him to do his first special you mean to. tell me if Steve har your favorite. comedian you mean you've been waiting. for him to do stand up for 15 years. now I mean Steve got other got a lot of. other DL still out there none of those. irons matter to. standup who cares that they wrote a. plaque card for you to do Family Feud on. like you're you're successful because. we're surprised you can talk for a.

living and it's entertaining that you. going to say some funny country. things but not a writer right not a. writer how did you develop Money Mike. and get it I mean that I mean everybody. Talk Money Mike is how how did you come. up with that and say you know what this. is how he should dress this is how he. should talk this is how he should look. this is the kind of whip he should ride. this is how he should. talk so if you'll remember that that was.

my first movie just understand that what. I did then I've done with every single. role whether it was an Emmy winning role. or whether it wasn't whether I was. playing somebody. homeless whether I was playing a dirty. Vagabond on Atlanta whether it was an. eccentric guy in first Sunday regardless. of what the role is the first thing I do. is Erase Me from it okay so anything. that I would naturally do that's what.

I'm not going to do because I'm playing. a different character the character okay. right so I then create this person based. upon real life circumstances so I don't. have to wonder what a pimp thinks cuz. I've been in that position for a little. while I also worked manual labor for. some time in my life so I don't have a. problem paying somebody at works and I. don't have a problem being a go-getter. cuz I'm a go-getter so I bring whatever. I can to these characters I was able.

to. um the first week that I got the script. there was a a pimp guy that used to be a. pimp but he wasn't anymore he was a. rapper now and his name was M Minister. and he um had been a pimp and was going. to be a rapper and. I had never done a movie before I was a. stand up and I'm getting ready to do the. movie and so I was able to craft what a.

real pimp was like what was too much I. didn't want to be stereotypical right I. I I did the research I saw how many. times people played pimps and they were. always it was always something weird. about them I guess cuz it's a weird job. you know what I mean and I wanted. somebody that didn't seem like none of. that that he really thought it was a. business and treated it like that and so. you know those adding those levels to. acting is what all actors do if they're. not Steve or Cedric or Ricky like you're.

trying to create a character you don't. you can't just be faon in every movie. like you just going to take your shirt. off on every movie like why does it say. that in your script man let Big Worm. live let him breathe cat let big let let. let Big Worm breathe sto him out now. you having an unnatural allegiance to.

losers is not like you no I ain't got no. allegiance to the man but you got to. admit the role that he played big work I. mean big perm in Friday night you got to. give him credit for the role now come on. now let me ask you a question yes if. what you're saying is correct why wasn't. he in next Friday or Friday After Next I. mean his role I mean it wasn't. good sorry there was a lot of people. that didn't that appeared in the first. one that weren't in the second one cat. I'm just telling you. why I'm sorry I'm sorry that it's a that.

a news flash that there are reasons for. things in a business yes oh okay well. what what you why would you what why did. you bench DLo he had two points what are. you talking about shut up but I like him. nobody cares about that that's not what. we're talking about these are business. conversations that deal with businessmen. right right right when you're good at. something you should progress the guys. that are not as good they should fall.

down by the wayside that's natural there. were they so you believe if your talent. doesn't support it you should fall by. the way sides and the guys that have the. talent and to get elevated they should. move no that's what water says that's. what the universe say the universe say. the. levels the every no I don't not I say. who am I I'm nobody but I'm working. every day as if I think that's what. should happen is how it should be and.

I'm choosing comedians that also write. and work hard and don't steal other. people's material and I'm making sure. that they all make. $300,000 uh a a season and I'm making. sure that they're not ever signed to me. or my conglomerate and that's why. they're successful no you can work with. me and still be an independent. businessman boss owner like you came in. right I don't need you to be subservient. to me that's those other guys that make. you pay.

dues you said earlier that you rewrote a. lot of what Money Mike was to say and. how he behaved so they allowed you the. the the the freedom the Liberty to add. Li how much would they allow you to just. make an interception if it didn't nobody. talk about it as a football player if. the ball come your way can you just grab. it can you make an interception anytime. are you allowed to pick up any fumble. are you you can do any hustling right oh. okay same here same here but here's the.

thing though even as a even as an. offensive player they might let me add. live once I get a couple of years into. my breath they would letting me add Li. as a rookie that was your first movie I. I told you the conversation in my first. movie just because I'm I am committed to. laughs the only way I made it past those. 300 comedians I didn't tell you this. what it required is I had to watch all. 300 comedians 10 times a piece I watched. your set 10 times of you performing.

whoever you were and then I counted how. many laughs you got every time you did. these amount of minutes so if you told. me this uh comedian and told me he did. 30 minutes I could tell you that he got. 26 laughs in that 30 minutes because I. had done the numbers on everybody so I. didn't just say was funnier I knew I was. funnier than the comic you liked and I. could tell you how many jokes funnier I.

was because that's how we judge stand up. you do 15 minutes I do 15 minutes how do. I know I'm funnier than you cuz you got. six laughs and I got. 16 I'm almost three times better than. you lowkey boy boy but I'm never going. to tell you the formula so you going to. keep just going out there telling jokes. now understanding that I psychologically. the Audience by 10 years is convinced. that I'm funnier than you they just.

don't know. why cuz I'm putting out more content. better I had Terry Cruz on here he said. at the time that you did the movie you. were homeless is that. true. um this was my situation I. five months prior to me getting this.

first audition for Friday After Next I. got this baby. son I'm holding him up above me he grabs. my little chain he's playing with it and. he accidentally drops it it breaks out. my front two teeth I'm in a situation. now where when I go to the dentist they. telling me this going to cost thousands. and thousands of dollars to fix this. right they're not telling me what it's. going to look like. like I go get an estimate with no money. involved find out what I need to do they.

find out you got a tumor in your upper. jaw so we're going to have to do a whole. surgery for you it's going to be 100. Bands I don't have it I don't have it. and. um I'm only going to have this check. from this movie so while I'm doing this. movie we live in this trailer um this. where we live so when they come to work. at 5:00 in the morning we already there. when they leave at night we still there. we just double back um because we.

understood that this is our one. opportunity um and we have this. opportunity to change our lives just. like a young man going for the draft we. can actually get in the league with this. there are 30 comedians on this cast. they're all magnificent this is the Holy. Grail of the. situation um so yeah I was able to make. sure that because it wasn't just my. first movie it was KD Al Bear's first. movie it was Terry Cruz's first movie.

absolutely I was the leader of this. group which meant that we did we didn't. do their rehearsals they did rehearsal. we did our own rehearsals daily to make. sure that we were at the level of. professional actors which is what made. it so. egregious that guy saying I was supposed. to you were supposed to what. KY did have a good part in the movie Man. the Santa Claus was funny man the dude.

said the entire time we're filming I. can't play this role they got a bandana. over my nose and my mouth my th they not. even going to know who this. is so yeah tell your. story he's t uh Terry Cruz also said. that you guys had a lot of had a lot of. conversation that this was your. opportunity and you needed to seize this.

moment Terry had the benefit of having. been in some very high-profile. situations already and took L's like he. had been in the league you know what I. mean he he he had um done pro wrestling. he had done a lot of things he had been. televised and some things that hadn't. worked right and this was just for ous. for him and now you know what nobody has. ever said in the whole industry in 20.

years about you know the whole money mik. not getting raped in the bathroom right. so I understood going in that there's no. reason I. lost every for a five-year period every. single movie that Kevin Hart did was a. movie that had been on my desk that all. I had said was just can we take some of. this step and fetch it [ __ ] out and then. I can do it like it don't need to be. overtly homosexual cuz I'm not.

homosexual right it doesn't need that to. be funny right and and me saying that. and them going oh yeah no problem and. then going to give it to this other guy. and having him do it just like it was. and acting like I'm a bad person because. I keep standing on my standard but um. yeah it's uh it's interesting but I. wouldn't change it for the world like. again. I'm I'm on The Winning Side of these.

decisions you know look I've had Cube. I've talked to cube a lot of people say. Cube don't doesn't pay what's your. relationship with Cube and what did that. opportunity mean for. you well the ungrateful bastards that. would say anything about cubes payment. you shouldn't even talk to them anymore. like you don't you don't go to Goodwill. you don't go to a Goodwill thrift store. and go look at all this cheap ass [ __ ] W.

you shut up why you shut up you could. have went to Hermes why you didn't go to. Balenciaga why you didn't get a B of the. ball main you want to have that. conversation what you mean the. independent black dude who's filming it. partly out of his [ __ ] pocket what. you mean he didn't pay you enough they. weirdos weirdos that felt like they. earned the opportunity because they were. big no no I understood a't no $200. million movie why how much did you. expect you was going to. make well I made enough to get them T.

fix just like you did so so. I it was no harm no foul I knew that I. was going to go from there and there was. no there was no turning back for cat. William well here's the thing. um I wrote. it what I'm saying I'm saying if I did. it and I did a good job at it you can. thank me I was involved right I'm not. going to come later on to tell you I. never even read the whole script so how.

you know where Rose what what do you. mean you never. read like you. like these guys whole job is to present. something unfortunately and I'm just not. a presenter if you ask me a question I'm. just going to tell you the truth of how. I went would you be willing to do. another. Friday you already asked me to write it. I was supposed to have been writing it. that's this is what these guys are mad.

about. like we lost some great people before. this movie could come out regardless and. so yes. there desperately needs to be one. um um. but um we miss John Witherspoon in a way. that can't really be Quantified. if I'm being honest with you and um the. Chris Tucker that we got now is Epstein.

Island Chris Tucker not smokey oh. Lordy if I didn't know nobody i' tell. you he's the greatest I don't care what. to. say to be confident and not delusional. is a real. skill most of these confident people we. see is really Del well you don't think. you don't think they ask Chris Tucker to. come back in the second in the in the. second.

Friday smokey smokey was all in Smokey. there ain't no Friday without. Smoky we all agree to that and there's. no next Friday without Friday and. there's no Friday After Next without n. we talk about the RO because you said if. they don't here's the thing here's the. thing Chris was allowed to make thec DEC. ision at the time that this is happening. Cat Williams is known for smoking weed.

Willie Nelson is known for smoking weed. snoop's known for smoking weed but none. of us is really known except Willie and. I'm saying Chris Tucker didn't want to. be the poster child for smoking weed he. don't smoke weed like that he in the. church he Michael Jackson's best friend. Christmas Michael Jackson call him. Christmas you ever met a man that gave. you a little nickname like that n mm- me. [Laughter].

neither must be the. greatest man I ain't going to be able to. get nobody back I ain't going to be able. to get no more comedians they all coming. no they ain't are you kidding nah hey I. promise thing I got all the rest of them. I don't I don't got the ones I promise. you everybody trying to double back you. going to be having to beat him off with. a stick you won't let him they're coming. much. as you on death Comedy Jam Comic View.

what were those experiences like what do. you what do you remember most about de. Comedy Jam and Comic. View uh Comic View was everything um. Comic View was really The Break um and. not Friday After Next just because Comic. View was just 3,000 of your standup. peers and we just throw sets of all of. them up there and we see who the. audience likes who do they like and um.

it was a great Wild Wild West time to be. involved in comedy and um the same is. true for Death Jam because uh Hip Hop. was a fad at one time and Hip-Hop ain't. going to last and why you doing that um. and that's how it was for blue comedy um. if you were a comedian that cussed you. were ridiculed by the mainstream. comedy Guist that would be like me being. on Joe Rogan Joe don't want me on there.

I need to be on Shannon Joe Joe got six. comedians that never been funny he want. to push. out but that's really how it is I'm so. sorry I'm competitive you're an athlete. right yeah yeah I I can tell you. understand will there ever be another. comic new de Comedy Jam could could. could that in today 24 25 26 could we. see that again they've already announced. it it's already going you didn't know mm. yeah Kevin Hart purchased it so he's now.

doing uh ComEd view that happened at the. same time that they gave DC youngfly uh. Hollywood Squares yeah because they tell. you that there's no Gatekeepers but we. keep seeing the same people open the. gate didn't Kevin open the gate and let. Tiffany in and he now opening it up for. don't such and such open the gate. what do you mean ain't no. Gatekeepers there 100 Gates out here. would you I I everyone I've seen got a.

keeper would you have wanted to do Comic. View a de Comedy Jam would you have. wanted to be I think we just mentioned I. did them both no I'm saying he purchased. the rights. and rranch. it nope they didn't offer it to me. anyway like Comic View did a couple. disservices to Comedy as well so there. were people like me that were out there. getting two and three standing ovations. in one set and that wasn't good for.

television so what they did was they. started making everybody get a standing. ovation so they would tell the audience. when they get off stage Everybody Get Up. and cheer and so now the fact that I'm. the only one out there going to get. standing ovations is now making people. think everybody get a standing ovation. and that's not how comedy is so I I. understood why that couldn't go anymore. because remember Ricky Smiley sat right.

here and told you a story about how he. performed with uh Mike EPs and Cat. Williams when he did Comic View and to. let him tell it he was funnier than. both my name. little yeah talking about the special. needs that's o That's good that's a. different that's some clever material. that was a different time cat no it. wasn't it was the time I was there but. I'm saying that time this time same. times no but I'm saying just like people.

that tell you the Egyptians they're not. black Egypt is in Africa folks as long. as Egypt is in Africa then Egyptians are. African do you believe you could tell. the same jokes. today as when you started out I mean. Eddie Murphy not telling those jokes. Richard proud not being wouldn't be able. to tell those jokes in 2024 that they. told in the 70s and the ' 80s so they. wouldn't have told them but that's my. point they're not inferior people no if.

they were in this time they will be. going according to our time just like. then we were going according to that. like that's how it is in the world there. are words that we can use for a while. and we use them for a while until. somebody says that ain't a good word we. should stop saying that correct that. don't make people feel good and we stop. saying the word and we move on to. another word you can't say say the r. word you can certainly say special needs. you can certainly say Spectrum you can. you can you there are things that you.

can say to get your point that don't. have to hurt people but you would know. that if what you did was construct the. English language for a. living then you would understand that. part you financed your first standup you. had 20 it cost you. 22,000 you had 25 to your name what why. did you decide to do that. you you you you believe that much in cat. I believe that much in business in. business the goal is for you to become.

independent and be the boss take the. responsibility and also get the profit. okay that's all how how how can I be. looking for you to put me on if I. wouldn't and if I can't show you what. you missed out on why would you believe. me now the fact that I was able to do it. 12 times. that's the real thing the thing the part. that I'm able to do it all across the.

country the fact that every time I do a. tour or a special you think that's. sponsored by somebody somebody did a. good job no no. just just the guy they're kicking around. just the one that might mentally not be. all there he's the one picking the. outfits writing this guy's material. booking the shows making sure he gets. there he's the one hiring the other. comedians. but hey I knew that that's the end goal. so if that's the end goal and I'm there.

when I start why would I deviate from. that right remember I I I I my goal was. to get this far in Hollywood and still. have a virgin. [ __ ] and never had sucked the penis. that was my only goal I didn't want to. get with a white woman cuz I was scared. she might have me running down the. street like Jonathan go. Pi not because I didn't like white women.

I think white women are as great as any. other women but I'm not going to act. like I'm not scared of them I have a. reason to be scared you could be K the. Conqueror and they could take your. rabbit ass down in two weekends and. that's the truth of the matter so I. stayed away from that and remember I. told you the drug story from when I'm in. the Park yeah so these are just the. things I had all of those when I came in. already was ready for that that's what. they don't like I did not know you.

you're telling me and showed me a side. of the business that I didn't know that. you guys are man the competition the. competitiveness that's all business I. don't care if they're selling Coke you. wouldn't believe the things that. Coca-Cola says about Pepsi he wouldn't. believe the water conversations between. between danani and liquid death like in. all business in All Sport competition is.

a driving force I don't require anybody. to be better who am I I just require if. you're a loser and you've taken. shortcuts at every chance and you've. made sure that you didn't put anybody on. that really had a work ethic and was a. God-fearing person and you helped that. if that was never you then don't act. like that's you don't get out here now. that you don't do stand up and start. acting like oh you not sure why you.

don't do stand up no more I heard you. got to run off you better be careful the. [ __ ] that run you off going to show up. and he going to tell everybody and what. you going to be able to say. nothing why you think I speak with such. Clarity I'm actually involved in each. one of these stories I told you. about right right. the one comedian as we've been sitting. here doing this interview that you hold. in very high regard is Dave Chappelle. Dave Chappelle walked away from 50.

million you said it was more tell the. story that's right I want let you tell. it no you're you're I want you to tell. it you really are the best you proving. it here today as much as I'm proving it. you proving it you proving it um yeah. that wasn't the thing it wasn't people. say that he lost $50 million no no. that's not even close to what happened. to this dude and until you understand. what happened to the dude you don't. understand what happened like no not. they offered him 50 million and he.

turned it down who going to turn down 50. million now I've had to turn down $50. million four. times four times just to protect my. integrity and that virgin hole I was. telling you about right uh cuz P didy be. wanting the party and you got to tell. him no youve got to tell him no I did I. did I got the receipts for everything. I'm telling you that's why I can say. them so I need K I need know you here. get you know thank you sir thank you.

Mama's House. too I almost died and I got to read this. script from all these good white. people where this [ __ ] want me to get. in a dress with him and I'm liter. literally saying to everybody why is he. in a dress again you already played the. old lady as FBI agent we can play.

Shay after this. year it's going to be in a dimension. it's never been yeah it's going to be it. the greatest thing floating in 20 Mark. the words no way in a in a whole. different realm of business Oprah coming. next. oah Once I establish this as a place of.

Williams Ain't Got he got the prowler. from Friday After Next sitting there he. got the same Bentley as me like because. we share certain things our our. connection was lyrics Musical lyrics. um women and cars and that's those are. the areas where he trusted uh my opinion.

on things and um that's where I got to. be helpful in his life and he was. helpful in mine in um really all. different types of way especially about. the business as far as being a black man. that was rich in this business at 18. years old had already did his first. million dooll contract had already. broken Records Was determined that he. did didn't want to be like anybody else. was so great of a guitar player that. black people just stopped caring about.

guitar and he got left out on the limb. and somehow still had to create his way. out of that he was just really a u a one. in a billion type person I was lugging. and. on. now they are specials and the streaming. um I don't know I don't think there's as. many there's no DVDs now so where so so. are you on this this streaming the. specials I mean obviously you you still. tour but how much do you focus on okay.

I'm going tour say 100 days or 150 days. but I'm going to do a. special well now that our relationship. with Netflix is at the eight figure Mark. um eight how how you said eight how. often you want to make them you you said. eight I mean like like five six seven. eight got to be 10 million to qualify. yeah so what I'm saying is once you're. at that level how many would you do I I.

I I'd be willing to bet you. say every time you turn around I'm going. to be doing another one I think that's. what you would say if he was any good. and like I said like I said with 12. comedy specials why do I need to be in. these conversation with these specialist. people said ain't got no special you. remember Steve ain't got no special you. remember Ricky ain't got no special you. remember Fon ain't got no so why do yall. special y it was 20 minutes long it was.

good too though it was he's good not it. was good he's good qu he's good don't. think because I said. something um derogatory that I I don't I. don't know how to hate earthquake has. consistently I don't think anybody's. ever said Quake wasn't funny he he. probably never been booed yeah don't. think I don't think he's ever given a. bad. performance but but.

um but his just do was overdue he was in. a whole different situation yeah because. he wasn't able to translate the standup. to the movie thing he took a hit most. people don't take a hit they're just. judged on their standup so yeah no I I I. even though it sounds like there's a lot. of people I don't that's not the case I. I am uh I a proponent of all of us who. are in this business working hard trying.

to make it when you got into standup was. crossing over was doing TV was doing. movie was that a was that a part of it. you like okay I'm I'm doing standup okay. next next the the next progression is TV. movies throughout throughout the history. of standup sir that's that's the goal. for all of us that's how it goes that's. why when you hear these dudes talking. about oh I didn't want to be a movie. star you just know it's disingenuous. like what are you talking about dude. yeah oh no no I just wanted to do a game.

show right. what are you. sure are you sure cuz I thought you did. Mark Curry's show over after he had just. done hanging with Mr Cooper why would. you do all of that man stuff that he did. on his show on yours and then do the D. standup when you go on the road. and then you never put Mark Curry on. your show or nothing like if you don't. say anything these dudes will run over.

you I don't know if you know how bullies. operate but if you don't stand up for. yourself there really is nothing they. won't do right you're a very generous. man cat uh you you're the sole sponsor. of melore getting a start in Hollywood. Walker Fame you sp you did all that on. your own. why what do you have a personal. relationship with Mel. No No I. um I I understood that she was a black.

woman in a time. where it mattered what you look like and. they had a certain thing that they. needed you to look like and act like in. order to be successful and she just. never did that she wasn't tall enough. she wasn't fine uh they didn't like her. looks they didn't like that her hair was. natural they thought crazy about her and. yet she still made all of these. achievements and I'm like understand I'm.

already in the comedy Hall of Fame I'm. already going to heaven no matter what. happens if it ends in a second I'm up. there so it gives me the leeway to do. some things that are simply because it's. the right thing to do so the truth of. the matter is they wanted to give me a. star. but please don't consider me and this. this person been sitting on this list. this whole time and just cuz they ain't.

got enough money they can't get they. just do that's crazy when do you start. that that's hurtful what if somebody. can't afford their flowers you mean they. don't get them no God don't operate like. that he would send a dummy like me to. come and take care of that just so that. the right thing happens that's how the. universe. work because remember I don't what am I. spending my money on I'm not spending my. money on strippers I ain't spending them. on drugs like. stripper because if I go in if I go in a.

strip club I'm only trying to get her. out of there yeah I have no intention of. her or any other people being in this. position if I see a girl I like at the. strip club I'm telling her you know you. don't have to strip no more after. this this could be your last day. D how about that oh. what would it be like just to leave it. all you ain't got to be a ho no. more I don't even want you to go get.

your purse just leave it we get new ID. we get new ID in credit in Social. Security card we don't need none of that. none of that none of that this life. don't look good on you [ __ ] you don't. even look like a drug addict got me. thinking got me thinking C right you he. these athletes talking about yeah we was. out there tricking what why you're part. of the. problem you're part of the problem stop. paying people that you don't have no. respect.

for it sets it up bad for us we got. women out here can't find a man cuz they. acting like him you a. alpha now the alphas all want these. subservient husbands you can't have one. no that ain't going to happen it ain't. going to happen sorry about that okay go. ahead boy you done got me cancelled how. many times in this. program where's the. camera I didn't write nothing I said.

tonight it's all been on these Q cards. and I'm just going to keep reading. them ask your next. question the Migos do you help them get. out of financial. situation I I don't think we ever as a. nation can remember a time that the. Amigos were financially unsuccessful so. for the record I would assume that.

they've never needed Cat Williams. financial assistance for anything I'm. sure that between QC to label and other. things they were taken care of on the. other hand if I was given the. opportunity to help them would I of. course I would that's what I do I'm. I'm I'm a pro black non-racist. like I really really love black people. but I don't love them more than other. people I love everybody I just I'm a. black guy and I I I I I try to stick.

with that but um yeah I I'm I'm not one. of those uh pillow talkers either like. when I do something good I'm really not. doing it for the gram it's not it's not. for it's not for any of that I'm just. doing it because it's good to do I. appreciate that I read I don't know if. this is true but I did read that. comedians on your show say that women. sometimes would bring them money and not. say where it came.

from say that again comedians would say. women would bring them money and not say. where it came. from right so um I'm not a feminist like. um a feminist would be but I do believe. that there are no there that in my camp. like if I had 35 people in my Camp right. I believe that other than four jobs I. believe that a woman is better at any of.

them jobs than any man could be okay so. 10 of these jobs no man can work because. I rather a female be there if I got to. smell anybody's breath I want it to be. hers I don't want none of you crusty. like I so so what I'm saying is if if in. a staffing issue I'm going to have 75%. women just I prefer them I I don't. prefer to hear two guys talking in the. corner I prefer to hear two ladies. talking in the corner I don't care what. they're talking about I just prefer that.

so A lot of times I will utilize ladies. to convey a message if a comedian is. doing a great job um somewhere in the. country he he just did a masterful set. and nobody's gonna pay him they just. clapping and I know he's broke as [ __ ]. back there. wouldn't it be nice if somebody just. showed up and gave him a little blessing. and he didn't have to suck me off for it.

and thanks scat and boy I really needed. it why would you do that if you was. actually just trying to help people you. would people know that's how I pay my. ties if I got paid $100,000 to be at. your. city I'm gonna take 10,000 of that and. put it in your homeless area not because. I got to cuz you gave me a 100 racks to. come to your little Rinky Dink Town who. would I be to not pay my ties back to. your town that's how I got in this.

position. wow you adopted seven. kids. why that's a lot of kids for a man. that's as busy as you are travels as. much as you do on the road as much as. you are spend a lot of time because you. have to spend a I mean it's not easy I. mean maybe it comes just so comes so. natural to you to put pen to paper and. to write things down and be able to go. out there and perform a set but that's a.

lot of responsibility. cat. right right but if there was a. god what would he think about you if you. did. that I'm saying let's just let's say for. example that God is real okay and let's. say he be looking at what you do yes. what would he say if you did that he. said that c that's that's a very that's. a very kind gesture that's very generous.

of. you my whole life since I was telling. you when I was young and they was asking. me what I wanted to be and nothing I. wanted to be was what I wanted to be. God's friend that's a weird thing if you. atheist if you an atheist I didn't even. say nothing but if you believe in God. and I tell you that I wanted to be God's. friend and I wanted to even go to. Hollywood and still be God's friend if I. told you that that was my aim you could. understand where I'm at.

like I promise you I no jealousy no. bitterness no none of that I got exactly. what I was trying to get I haven't been. shorted in any. way I mean seven eight kids single you. going to get married you remember the. conversation where I was where it was me. yes and and I didn't know what was going. to happen to my two little brothers and. they was just going to be out there. yes so when it g full circle and I'm one.

of the I'm one of the richest men that. ever lived and I don't I don't I don't. mean please don't look at my net worth I. saw my net worth I I had that on. me I swear to God. what I'm saying is. like I'm saying my net worth is less. than my last Netflix.

deal you understand what I'm telling. make it make. sense but I'm. fine Jesus was. poor Jesus Ain had. nothing so why don't be mad you say I. don't have nothing they have the minut. they have back then okay say it again we. got different amenties now not not more. than gold. gold was the amenity of that time we. still got. gold gold still run it they have no. rolls Roy they got you you could buy you.

could buy a ass that's what they call it. in the biblical time it would. cheap I'm saying if you really want to. say I'm saying a color n is. cheap so back in the day I would get my. girl a donkey today we get her a color n. but I'm saying whoever I'm saying. whoever whatever it is I'm saying we. yeah I'm saying because what we going to. do I done already told you I'm one of. the richest people that ever Liv yes.

only in the fact that when I wake up in. the morning no matter where I am I don't. need nothing whatever I need is right. around me and whatever I don't have it's. only just cuz I don't have it it's not. cuz I can't get it all I got to do is. want it and it belongs to me so because. of that because I'm faith by God like. when I see people's wives and stuff I. don't even look at them you know what I. mean like I I don't want to look at. nothing I don't want to have because I I.

know how blessed I am if I look at it I. got it that's how Diddy be feeling Come. on. B so you're not supposed to look at. anything that you don't want not me. personally just because God has given me. literally everything I ever even pump. faked like I want and that's the whole. thing that's that's the whole thing is I. don't I don't have a type of woman every.

woman that I ever had as a type I ended. up getting her now she's not the type. anymore now I understand that every. woman is a one of one like you can't. really have. types what cuz see how he trying to ask. me something about marriage but then. about no marriage yeah you did when you. rewind the tape you you let it out you. was like so you ever going to get. married and then you took it back it's. okay it's okay I was known as a.

photographic memory are you I'm not. against it like most people that are not. married is because they afraid of. commitment not that like that for me. it's just the whole time I wanted to be. married I I had kids so I had to try to. fill my wife's place before she got. there so I'm already got kids without a. mother but so now I got to be doing. laundry I'm I'm washing dishes I'm. reading stories I'm having to nurture. I'm having to do all of this and I got. to the point where I didn't need the.

wife I'm doing it and we're doing it and. I'm not replacing a woman in their lives. I'm letting them see that that's just. the only thing that we don't have and um. it was easier for me to do that because. you have to understand that all of the. kids I'm raising at this point they they. have. fathers you see they have a mother you. see I'm a different person I'm raising.

you and so that needs to be done with. the other respect for the others that. put work in as well so yeah um I I never. had a problem getting married. I what's one of the one things you try. to teach your. kids I don't teach anybody anything. that's over 18 I've done the work I was. going to do but as kids I really just. tried to teach. um the things that can't be bought um.

your integrity um trying to live your. life in a way that you yourself could be. proud of if you had to look back on it. and um um I didn't do very good at. leading by example but behind the scenes. I was that that's never what I was. pushing um um um they understood. that because of my stance there was a.

certain thing that would come my way and. so accountability and responsibility is. part of what you're teaching is that you. know even if you're doing the greatest. thing in the world there's this thing. called no good deed goes unpunished like. there's a real Murphy's Law like. basically in raising kids you just. trying to give them a better manual and. an outline of how life Works than your. parents gave you you know and so.

um that's how I did. it how do you avoid toxic. women give me give me give me I mean so. I mean because obviously you know you. like women I do and I probably like. toxic ones more than anybody because ask. hold on because toxic women are exciting. and that's just a fact part of toxicity. is. exciting I rather skydive with her uh.

but but but if you have toxic women just. understand that all monsters are feeding. off of something and if you find out. what this toxic woman is feeding off of. you can just begin to turn off her. feeding points and it drives a toxic. person crazy and they'll get away from. you so whatever if if she's truly toxic. there are certain things that she's. doing that help fuel her toxicity you're.

not noticing it but it's what it is why. do you think she watches murder. mysteries before she goes to sleep why. is it always a crime drama playing and. turn it off turn it to. cartoons. make no no you don't get to what she. listening to you going be listening to. sexy red you're.

broke toxic people are trying to get. things they're not being toxic for no. reason they're gaining something out of. how they operate that's why they operate. like that cuz they get something soon as. you find that out you'll be able to cut. off what they getting and they will. leave yeah. you were married once never you weren't. married never in life so would you have. a cohabitation agreement never how how.

can I be a single parent and be married. you two you know there are people that. like were married and then they get. divorced and then they become single. parents that's how that. works yeah but a person who's never been. married means he's never been married. okay okay I'm going to take your word. for it why would you need to take my. word for it hold on hold on if I had. been married wouldn't it somebody said. who she was no it might have been a long. time ago no I've never not been famous.

sir I've just I just I just work the. story out to you that I don't have no. hidden mysteries in my life that was. Jesus I don't have no periods in my life. where it's unaccounted for no no no that. person that said that was a liar I got a. case right now in La this lady say she. was my assistant for 14 years and I hurt. her or something like that I never. worked for me not a day in my life Liars. lie cuz they want to but people always. say why would they lie no there are.

several women have said they was married. to me it's just when it went to court. they had to say I was married to him. spiritually you shut. up how you going to be married to me my. kids don't know. you answer me that so do you have a. problem do you have a problem bringing. women around your. kid no not then or. [Laughter]. now I've always lived with several women.

like I'm known for several yeah like. more than one I've already told you that. I prefer the company of women to the. company of men so if I told you that me. and a couple dudes on my staff sometimes. have to cohabitate nobody finds a. problem with that yeah so it's me and. three ladies cohabitating because that's. how the business gets done like I. don't want a chef that scratches his. nuts for it Cooks I.

don't like I no disrespect to these guys. that go around with these large male. only groupings. but that's not my episode. Entourage man you were approach you were. approached by seven Gman you were robbed. shot in the thigh. say it again you were robbed once. correct no I've never been robbed you. didn't get robbed you didn't you didn't. get approached by government trying to. get robbed they didn't take.

anything I wasn't even the I wasn't even. um the target I wasn't even who they. were talking to and not because I say. that because if you look at what time. period it is I'm not even making 5,000 a. year so robbing me wasn't. answer this is for Oklahoma. you you talking about a. terrible condition they have been. disappointed thinking they get some.

mother for you. huh if they rob you look I in three. cities there it's legendary that Cat. Williams would walk down our streets. with his baby in a baby stroller with a. diaper bag with a gun in a diaper bag. the only thing I need is a pass don't. mess with me and just let me go about my. business I I'm living in Englewood. Compton I'm living on Manchester and. Western I'm in La the gang capital of. the world but never robbed because why.

I'm not pretending to be something I'm. not you think I'm a blood you think I'm. a [ __ ] I'm from Ohio I'm a comedian I'm. a father right I'm trying to do. something out here and not only do I not. judge what you doing I'm not trying to. be involved right that's the difference. that's where the respect comes from to. you're touring right now Dark Matters. the Dark Matter tour yeah filing next of. uh Netflix special in May May yep next.

Netflix special oh YouTube theater in. Englewood I'm about to catch that I. thought you might said that I'mma catch. that one right because it's a homecoming. for me because I lived on um I lived on. Hazel so you know I got to catch people. know I lived in the heart of Englewood. they saw me walked down Marcus Street. with the babies I'm raising like they. understood that no no no I was really. not pretend oh he want to be from the. hood no I'm living there on the street.

what's your favorite City to tour. in the next one. sir yeah that's the that's the real. beauty of travel right that's why most. people don't have the empathy and the. sympathy that they need to have for. other people. they haven't seen other people like if. you went to Ireland and you saw what. people was like and you went to Sweden. and saw what them people was like if you.

really went to Africa and you really saw. what the people was like you went to. Haiti you went to Puerto Rico if you. really traveled across the country you. would see that all people is the. same way more people that's good than. the [ __ ] up individuals you seeing and. if you understood that it would change. everything so I don't I I I don't have. any favorites in the world just because.

every place is dealing with their own. issues their own troubles all places. look better than they actually are for. the people that live there and it's. always a difference between what it. seems like what it actually and what it. is like people will tell you I went to. Paris I was there at the Eiffel Tower. did you had dead bugs and there were. ramps everywhere the food was terrible. tell the rest of it don't tell some let. me ask a question when you go when you. go to these cities to tour do you make. it a habit of getting out that's how I.

built my reputation that's also how I. ended up in jail 19 times uh because. when I come to do a show I'm really in. your city so whatever the strip club is. I'm there whatever the top bar is I was. there drinking whatever the I was never. you had a casino I was at it like what. was it huh cuz I'm at you City I'm this. is how I'm learning your city so that. when I do my show I can be talking about. what I know not what I think right and.

so that was what I did at every city. that I went to the first 15 minutes of. my show is what it's like to be here you. see what I'm saying and so that was. always a part of what kept my Legend. going to the point where I can still be. in these Arenas without you ever seeing. a poster with my picture on it without. you ever seeing a flyer without you ever. seeing a post it goes hey it's cat could. y'all make sure y'all come out and come. see me cuz I'm going be in would you.

please come on out guys and I. really because we have a different. respect I know I'm coming they know I'm. coming I know they going to be there and. they know I'm going to do the best job I. can possibly do and they know beyond the. sh of a doubt whatever hour he was doing. when we last saw him he won't be doing. that hour when we see him this time it's.

a whole new. conversation and because I've never. strayed from that they've never strayed. from their part I'm looking at some of. the the the the actors that you've been. on screen with Cube Tracy Morgan Regina. Hall Terence Howard are look Nick Cannon. I mean Tiffany I mean bro who who brings. out the best in Cat Williams how how. does someone get the best out of cat. William do you need a comedian do you. need a serious actor how do we get the. absolute best out of Cat Williams on.

screen well I would be disingenuous if I. didn't remind us that that's never. anybody's. goal it's never anybody's goal to create. a great situation for me to do a good. job why in a script the way it works is. the script is already there this is a. character in the script if they give me. the job I make it my job that this. character here this character.

here has to be as big as this whole. project so if you don't even see the. movie School Dance I want you to. remember whose goddamn white baby is. this and the only way that I can. guarantee that you will remember my. scene if you didn't remember a whole. movie is if I make sure that my scenes. are that good because that's what I. watched I watched great actors you never. saw daero you never saw peshy you never.

saw any of these dudes and something you. was like nah I don't really believe it. you sure you're the Great Gatsby like no. like you believe that this dude Daniel. is a. hobbit that's part of The Lord of the. Rings right you see what I'm saying and. so I it's a having a respect for craft. that I'm doing that means I got trying. to do the best job possible what was it. like working with [ __ ] Lee doing.

Priceless Spike Lee is everything that. you said I was in my intro he's just. really a innovator and a groundbreaking. One of a Kind. Dynamo and. um and I knew that they. were like they tried to sabotage me even. then like as soon as I said I wanted to. get Spike leader directed because that. was the biggest thing I could do they. immediately gave Spike to gerro.

carmichel and had him do his special too. at the comedy store and just to. undermine like but I. I if there's one thing you can take away. from me as a person whether you like me. or you don't if you take this from me. you will be a better person if you. decide today that you're going to live. every day like it's your last for real. which means have a conversation with. yourself every night that okay that was. it may not be no more after that and.

really count yourself every day like. this could have been it all right before. I go to bed this could be it all right. how's that. looking if you can do that it'll change. your life you'll really start making. decisions and living your life like this. all you got just this one day but you. could be a winner you could be a winner. on this day it just it's just work ethic. and not the work ethic they talk about. they tell you work ethic where they do. all these movies I'm the hardest working.

man no everybody goes to work every day. but right yeah don't say I go to work. all the time everybody who works goes to. work every day shut. up shut up you get what you think I. respect you more than my Gardener I. don't I don't he work every day rain or. shine I don't I don't know if you saw. this but teraj P Henson got extremely. emotional the other day she was giving. an interview yes and saying. that they're vastly underpaid and say.

the math is not mathing they get x. amount of dollars by the time Uncle Sam. get his cut by the time the agency get. their cut and what you see they were. supposed to get is a fraction of that. where do you come down on that. cat it was the saddest thing ever. because. imagine imagine being in your genre in. your sub Niche whatever it is imagine. being in your lane imagine being one of. the very top of your lane that to the. point where if they don't take you for.

the role there's not three black. actresses that they can say are bigger. than you that we going to give this to. imagine you being at that point and have. to humble yourself and. say they're not paying me y'all and they. not making my pay go up cuz I'm doing. better or nothing it don't matter that D. that I'm famous and people know me or. nothing they want to pay me exactly what. they paying the new girl and I've been. suffering under it for a a decade now.

and just taking it I just been getting. whooped but I just got to come say this. is. wrong we should be ashamed but this is a. country where we don't pay the teachers. and then we say the kids is the most. important thing you can't have both of. them if you do that we're going to end. up with a generation that can't read. guess what generation Z and a can't read. why cuz who was giving them a book we. gave him iPad or a phone and now the.

letters don't mean the there's no. cursive writing right sorry about that. so yeah it this is what period of time. it's in it's the period where the. victims get to. say they've been hurting me for a long. time and I just ain't said nothing cuz I. was trying to be strong and I didn't. want to shame anybody. when our people call out for help we got. to understand you know what I mean like. like we we we put too much pressure on. Tyler Perry you know what I mean he.

ain't put nobody on the people that been. in his Productions they not famous all. them can walk through the mall without. security be what you going to be but put. your people on if you a gay person and. you in there put some other gay people. on put somebody on or don't be wondering. why people keep saying. Gatekeepers cuz clearly y'all keeping. these. Gates. clearly wilding out how difficult was it.

for Nick Kennon to get you on and what. what was that what was that experience. like I've known link Canon since he was. a teenager he had to have his he in the. comedy club if you're underage you can't. be in a regular Club you have to be in. the kitchen right so I was the Master of. the kitchen every comedy place because I. got a child and my child is back here in. this place while I go on stage right so. I've known Nick Cannon since he was 14.

Nick Cannon has never called and asked. me to do one single thing and I turned. him down because I've known him since he. was a young black child in Hollywood wow. so um what I did in wilding out was to. be his protector and to be his. voice um with hip hop so the whole thing. was the thing that he was trying to do. had never been done before you can't. bring six comics in and let six Comics.

talk [ __ ] about six rappers because the. six rappers will beat the six Comics ass. right you would have to have a comic. that could actually stand in. between and go. look we Comics we going to say what we. going to say y'all going to take it and. understand it's a joke. if you want to fight we fight before the. show so you can go out there with your. black. eye we're not going to do it. comedically this is what needed to take.

place in order to be for it to be. successful which is why it had already. aired and didn't work and then suddenly. when it comes back with me it suddenly. works because respect has to be in there. as well if you trying to do it with. Kevin Hart you and him GNA get run over. you you you a. teenager he fire too. like what's going to happen who are some. your favorite young.

comedians I don't I haven't seen a young. comedian I don't like if you name any of. the young comedians I'm aware of all of. them and they're all doing a great job. it doesn't matter if it's country Wayne. or Desi Banks it doesn't matter if it's. Carlos or chico it doesn't matter if. it's uh DC or just hilarious it it. really doesn't it really doesn't matter. once we go to the young part um the.

young comedians are dealing with things. that we never dealt with and so that. gives them more benefits but it also. gives them uh more chances of failure so. it's not easier for them um so yeah I'm. I'm a big supporter of um young comics. we we have uh Miss Pretty Ricky and Taro. Williams um I've taken. 25 uh black women on the road in these.

tours um it's important to me that the. young comic uh gets the benefits and the. advantages of the big Comics platform. right Matt R wilding out recently got. canceled you see Jonathan major what he. went through Marvel dropped him as soon. as they're guilty uh uh the conviction. came out and you were telling the hey. you saw that black woman come get his. charge cut in half thank you Megan good. God bless you coming to save that slave.

if he had to be there by himself he was. getting all F guilty guil gu she came in. there was just so beautiful they had to. knock half of it off bless his. heart so Matt R you know you know him. from a wild and out he gets cancelled. for TR trying to tell I never knew him. from wild and out to be honest I I I. came across him as a new comic okay and. U yeah I'm really just trying to see the. comics judge where they are see it yeah.

right go ahead so the the cancelling uh. what what what do you think about this. cancel culture you see the situation. with Jonathan major I mean for all sense. and purposes I I don't know if maybe he. can bounce back in in a couple of years. but man he was he was hot he was hot as. he was cooking I mean you see him in. Creed he's in the Marvel movies and. just like that maybe I'm a conspiracy. theory but I thought Cal Williams said. any time they make you into that. position part of that contract is you do.

understand whenever we want to take you. down we can. right part of giving you the world first. of all they went around the world for. two years straight telling any women. that would listen that this was a. good-look negro mhm since when when did. y'all start liking a big nose and when. did y'all like a little head and a big. jaw when say when that look like my. daddy when you start liking my daddy you. like black people's features like that. if this ugly [ __ ] is goodlooking then.

all [ __ ] is. goodlooking anytime you see them telling. you something you can't believe just. understand it's a play and it don't. matter you going to know it's a play. soon as they get in that position and. think they going to tell somebody. something no you're not no you're not. Marvel will cancel you so you won't be. allowed to read a comic book what is you. talking. about get out of here get out of here. ugly. boy yeah they love fooling the people.

what's your relationship like with SH. not you still close with. SH have you spoken to him have you. talked to him recently yeah he's doing. good. um yeah he's uh man when you a friend. you friend for life with with cat. William yeah because the people that. come to me are trying to better their. life they're not trying to continue. doing what they have been doing okay so. when somebody comes to me male or female.

it is in the offices that this is what I. did this is what I used to do this ain't. what I want to do no more and I want to. do something else and I'd like it to go. a different way okay that's what I offer. yeah so um if you come to me under those. opes then my loyalty is lifelong why. would it not. T lanes and mag what what was your take. on that cuz I know you you got to take. on everything I know you it's a. difficult position because somebody's.

not going to tell the truth and the. truth has got to be told in all. circumstances the truth has got to be. told so if you don't want to say she. shot her then you shot her and that's. the end of. that you said you've never have you ever. spent time in jail. 30. times when when you was in there what. was going through your mind C what what. did I mean some people like man I had an.

opportunity to reflect and I like man. this ain't the place for me I ain't. coming back here when you in so so I've. never I've never been in jail and it was. my decision to be there if if if it's. dangerous to be in the hood and you have. to have a gun on you for protection and. it's either be judged by six or I mean. car judged by 12 or carried by six I'm. always going to have my heater on me so. if you want to tell me that you're going. to pull me over 15 times looking for it. I'm going to tell you 15 times you going.

to find. it unfortunately I smoke cigarettes and. weed if you catch me 15 times 15 times. I'm G to have it on. me what do you think I'm in jail. thinking oh I don't [ __ ]. up damn these decisions I'm not going to. protect my life at all when I get out of. here [ __ ] it let them do what they want. to do to me no no when I'm in there I'm. fine and I'm understanding that I'm put. here for a reason and the people that.

get joy off me being in here are really. going to look stupid cuz I'm going to be. free because you got to be setting this. up I'm never anywhere to get anything. you don't know I just made. $300,000 in your city that's why you. think I might be out here as a ner Dell. you think I'm he's smoking weed yeah. he's got a medical license for it he. needs it it's his only medication do you. mind if he takes it it helps him eat cuz.

he does 19100 city tours flying across. the line and so he doesn't get hungry on. the regular he doesn't get sleepy at. night he's got to literally put himself. to sleep he's Lally got to make your eat. so this marijuana helps him do both of. those things. Mar want to help you sleep oh yeah. because remember remember as a comedian. what you're doing is against your. natural timeline your natural timeline.

wouldn't be that you would start your. workday at 8:00 p.m. right and then your. work day is over at 2:30 a.m. like. that's a weird yes right so to tell your. body now that we're pumped up on. endorphins now let's go to sleep at 3: it don't work like that your body has to. try to get a whole new schedule so you. know it suffered but that's what worked. for me I consistently used it I told. people all across the country don't. worry this will be legal in our country.

as soon as they find out how to charge. taxes for it we will be legal in this. country do they view me as some sort of. visionary for my forward no no he own. drugs what I heard okay but how have you. been I mean bro every time they try to. put you down they try to put you to the. back yeah you you bounce up you move. right back to the front damn you I mean. you like a Super Bowl you just keep. bouncing and you bounce.

higher trampoline skin is something that. you ask God. for when I watched you play football you. had. it there's some people. that there's really no such thing as. hitting Shannon sharp so hard he don't. want to run the ball the next play right. absolutely and if that's your only goal. is to hit him so hard that he don't want. to beat him no more you just out of luck.

yeah you wasting your time there's no no. your coach can't help you there ain't no. pep talk going to help you don't matter. about the uniform you chill it none of. that matters if it ever gets to Mono. imano May the best man win and if you've. been living your entire life trying to. be the best man that you can for. yourself. then you should feel great about those. odds what do you think about Kanye rant. what's going on with Kanye from a. distance obviously I don't know how well.

you know Kanye I don't know if you've. been around Kanye but from a distance. what what what what do you suspect is. going. on I suspect that we're pretty awful. people if we say that somebody got a. mental illness and then we watch what. they do. if you say somebody got special needs. then why would you be watching them and. holding them accountable like everybody. else wouldn't you grade them on a.

curve wouldn't you go. woo this. guy because I mean what are we reacting. to what are we reacting to you're the. one that put him in a position where he. thought he was God and could call. himself yeus and you the one told the. guy that writes Musical lyrics that he. was a genius you're the one that's like. so what what do you expect the guy. married a [ __ ] like what oh.

Lord I didn't mean it like that I mean. married her because she was one now he. didn't know he understood that he wanted. that he CED that that's what he wanted. to base his she got a good heart. though I know what you going to say. don't you say it cat don't you say it. I'm will move the if what I'm saying is. not correct then how do she end up with. Pete.

Davis I mean it happens all the and what. if you weren't even good enough for Pete. and he leaves you what do that mean the. product. was no I don't I don't support or. villainize Kanye because I don't. understand what it is we want from him I. I don't know why we look at a basketball. player and say he didn't score no hockey. goals this whole season he don't play. [Laughter].

hockey Kanye don't say nothing I can. agree with okay I he was the weird guy. in the beginning with the pink sweaters. when we met him like what do you think. moving to a beat of your own drop. this this dude started a church and kept. cussing no nobody in black church said. nothing you would have thought all the. pastors would have came you can't be no. gospel artist you just said [ __ ] that. [ __ ] nobody said nothing cuz TD Jake's.

over there with Bean in it like come on. cat only the guy you had here has been. upfront and honest and a man of God and. humble and took the L's he had to take. and didn't I I did see it was trending. though but I ain't know I I don't I I. ain't know why C I don't. don't let me go to this question right. here all people that love the truth got. to be happy if the truth coming out and. lies is getting exposed that's just what. time it is 2024 folks are you related to.

uh. Luda no um so there was a Crossroads. where we were both. invited to an Illuminati thing and it. had to be one or the other of us and. decisions had to be made so it was both. of us we were equal one of us had to cut. off all their hair and couldn't do the. Sideburn thing no more with the points. and the next person they said was going. to get $200 million because they were.

going to pay him 10 million a movie to. do 20 movies and that's how the. conversation happened one of those. persons turned out to be ludicrous and. the other person turned out to be Cat. Williams now one person ended up with a. light-skinned ugly faed wife that's. never done a remember I told you that if. I say that it appli to seven people it's. part of what they give you okay I didn't. get it I'm not mad about it how much. money they. give 200.

sir Fast and Furious is on what number. right now 10. more 200 million I might need to get me. one of more. women look the. same that's what they all end up saying. at the end of the day Kevin told you it. wasn't go to wear no dress until they. offered him the dress and then he put it. on and what did he say after he wore it. I made my own decision duh but you. didn't make it before they brought it up. did you it's okay it's all right you.

have a lot of politics never talk about. it I'm not that. controversial what where are we go where. are we headed cat uh this is sad this. we've never been here before we've never. been at the point where neither option. is good for us in real life no this is a. different conversation this is would you. rather go back with your ex or would you. rather go back with the person before.

them both bad options both bad options. like one guy how do we one guy can. barely put his sentences together and. the other. guy will put sentences together from. whatever he's read or whoever told him. like but how do we how do we get here. how do we get here all division divides. there's no way around that all division. divides um politics even in the.

beginning when our constitution was. drawn up the the two parties was not. what they had in mind no they always. thought that it would be two main and. another independent party they always. assumed the Independent party would be. um just as strong as the. others uh a lot of that just didn't. happen and. um that's what I've learned more from. Comedy is that Republicans laugh at the. exact same thing that Democrats laugh.

at as long as I'm talking to Democrats I. could make them laugh for one hour. straight about what Republicans do by. the same token I can go talk to. Republicans for one whole hour and have. them dying about the stuff that. Democrats do but at the end of the day. who does that. yeah your team got a offense and a. defense they not supposed to be enemies. the enemy is the other. side wow you can't do politics like that.

nope it's not good for the country man. you see this Mark Zuckerberg building. this $270 million bunker if you have a. billion dollars we have learned that you. can do whatever you want to do when Eli. mus wants to send space things in space. he don't have to ask nobody's permission. Congress don't meet Senate don't meet no. Police Department got to be warned he. don't need a permit none of that if you. got a billion dollars you do what you. want to do and then you tell them what.

you did and that's how it go what he. building a $270 million bunker what he. know that we don't know. cat Kim Jong. Un what I don't know what you don't know. do you understand that people that are. not very bright are in charge of nuclear. bombs all across the country. mhm that's what he knows he knows that. 30% of all weapons systems are running. off regular.

Wi-Fi so what does that mean that means. if a solar flare or a meteor hits either. one of. those literally a bomb can go off just. because the system accidentally got. turned. off yeah that's what he knows. the the people that are in power know. that the people that are running the. most complicated and deadliest things on. the.

planet are just an average. idiot and you know lots of idiots I do. yep and these these people are not. special back in the day they were yeah. not today not today you say you smoke a. little weed you ever smoke with. Snoop yeah. I'm actually a bigger smoker than Snoop. He he'll tell you that but I don't like. I don't mix anything with my weed I just. do weed right so no yeah nobody hasim I.

mean nobody nobody has nobody nobody. does 20 blunts a day like me for 30. years like like I was the first person. to have a weed roller like somebody. whose job it was like I haven't I. haven't rolled a blunt in 20 years if. you go I'm saying I I prefer the saliva. of ladies oh my goodness no no. understand what I'm saying if for a. blunt it's necessary for it to get lit. right and so if you had spent 20 years.

smoking with dudes that's a lot of male. saliva that you would have just. accidentally ingested I I can't but if I. can't be this specimen on that it takes. uh the saliva of nice lady. on that but yeah I'm a yeah that's all I. do that's just do you consider yourself. a king of comedy where where no they. they consider that like like when after.

Bernie left them same three guys I'm. telling you about the Kings yeah right. cuz DL is the greatest no DL slander. gets tolerated um but they came to me I. was supposed to be the fourth King I got. the offer then what happened but I. turned it down why because you [ __ ] on. Bernie and I know the truth you think. I'm let you [ __ ] on Bernie and then come. get me I'm the next king [ __ ]. you why because the whole time Bernie.

was here you was acting like you was. funnier than him the reason you were. supposed to go last is because it was. your tour tell the truth it was Steve's. tour now it was going to be called the. Kings of County it was Steve's tour. these are the guys opening for him of. course you got to close if it's your. door that's why it was such such a big. deal but you couldn't do it cuz you. can't beat the best and until you humble. yourself you will forever be kinged by. the. king and because you finally did it cuz.

you didn't had no other choice and now. that he gone you going to act like he. wanted to be a movie star you stop it. you stop it that man was funnier than. all of y'all and y'all thought y'all had. one over on him you thought he were. black and ugly and you were goodlooking. and he couldn't make it cuz you did and. that ain't the way comedy work the king. is the. funniest period every time and that's. why no audience member was ever swayed.

it didn't matter where Bernie went you. think if Bernie went first he wasn't the. king get out of here get out of here get. your ego out of this you let the best be. the best right cat William ladies and. gentlemen thanks for coming on I really. appreciate that thanks for sharing thank. you the stories setting the record. straight now you know they going to. double back impossible impossible only. because if once you play this back.

you'll realize I didn't say anything. that made me look in a good light I I. wasn't tearing down others to boost. myself up I but I do have to acknowledge. things that did not take place like. we're very ingenuous if we say this is. not a game and we don't play it and. people ain't in positions and people. don't have their favorites and they. group and they click right well that. happens in all businesses we no no say.

what side you want say why you don't. like the other side and then get to the. game but in the game I'm wiping the. field with them to the point where they. don't even compete anymore so how you. going to let a dude that been on the. bench for 15. years I would have be Jordan's ass Shut. up Jordan is still alive we'll call. Jordan right now you can't beat him. [Laughter]. now not then you can't beat him.

now right Cat Williams Shannon. sharp appreciate you bro appreciate. you my gr. my hustle pay the price want a slice got. the roll of dice that's why all my life. I been grinding on my life all my life. gring all my life. sacrifice the price want a slice got the. roll di why all my life been gring all. my life.
