Kid Rock [ __ ] Zack elephan AIS I was. like that yeah that works yeah that. tracks how long you been out here now oh. like two weeks wow it's like a dream. this has been a weird including this. it's all a weird dream how long you been. doing standup now I mean I got on stage. when I was 17 or 18 in high school. started doing improv and stand up on. stage that's almost 20 years oh wow and. then I went to college.

yeah yeah yeah I was so I was failing on. of high school I needed like a be to. pass and I was friends with the acting. teacher we would drink. together public school brother Public. School wow yeah we would drink together. and smoke and I thought if I take his. class he's got to give me an A or I can. get him sent to jail probably for all. this bad. behavior and and I I so I took this. acting class and uh and I got on stage. and he pulls me aside like day one he. goes this is what you need to do with.

your life Wow and I go okay okay stop. drinking stop smoking I was like in a. gang I was growing weed yeah I was a. nightmare kid people think I'm just this. nice little guy I was a [ __ ] monster. and getting on stage and I got all that. energy out and uh it's what I've been. doing every day since. wow that's cool that someone recognize. that cuz most of the time they don't. takes one person it's insane it takes. one person you know that one person.

literally can change your life cuz. you're in this part of your life where. you're not you don't know what the [ __ ]. you're going to do no and then someone. gives you a direction and they say hey. you're really good at this this is your. thing oh my God I found my thing that. day you go home you're like I found my. thing yeah he had us uh uh first class. we had to dance on stage he cuz he was. like he go you're going to [ __ ] oh he. was wild dude he was a playright he he'd. take the Metro North from Connecticut.

New Haven to uh put on little plays and. I just thought I just thought it was the. sexiest thing it was like this guy was. like living in the 1920s or something. right like a real artist yeah yeah and. he goes he goes we're going to humiliate. ourselves day one he goes it's going to. be so bad so everything you do after. this is going to be a breeze and I and. I've I've still used that to this day. with standup you you got to get messy. you got to so he said we're going to go. do the silliest dances in the I went. home I was practicing in the in the. bathroom.

just sweating turn I've never performed. and i' get on stage and you'd be like. sillier weirder weirder until you just. had a mental breakdown and then after. that doing a little Shakespeare was fine. oh that's an interesting strategy yeah. that think someone to break you down and. go you're allowed to [ __ ] up you're. allowed to get messy yeah and that's. that's why I got a place here cuz I went. to your club and I saw uh Brian Holtzman. and I go wait a minute you're allowed to. do this there's a place where where.

you're allowed to say whatever you want. well Brian Holzman was like a hero of. comedians in Los Angeles but he didn't. get good spots Unfortunately they would. put him on really late at the end of the. show and it was a wild thing to watch. you know you watch like 20 30 people in. the audience this guy's saying the most. hilarious but yet horrific things and he. just never got the respect that he. deserves I've known Brian for I guess.

around 30 years now when we first. started at the store we were like young. hot shots he was like this young. darkhaired slick back like really. interesting guy like really like same. style that he has now he had back then I. can't imagine him with any more energy. than he has now though it was the same. gu oh his energy has not waned at all. which is why he's so good you know like. some some people slow down and it sucks.

it sucks to see yeah you know cuz they. slow down you're like you don't want to. say anything to them you know like hey. man you got to pick it up yeah whatever. the [ __ ] you used to be you got to bring. that back turn it up a little bit yeah. you're a little too casual up there I. don't to say lazy but there's there's. like you're too tired yeah you got to. fire the [ __ ] up Holzman never lost that. that kind of that [ __ ] you know that. [ __ ] when he gets crazy but he didn't. have show like a real showcase he didn't.

have like a real you know like a real. awesome spot where he could perform in. front of crowds that weren't tired and. hadn't seen three hours of Comedy but so. now we've got him headlining yeah you. know and and people come to see him they. know who he is they get excited people. have seen him multiple times he's got. cult following here it's great he. definitely does yeah so that was it I. saw him once and then I was like oh my. God I went to like the open mic or. whatever you know was in town doing the. Vulcan I think and then I go I'm going.

to try to get an audition Adam wasn't. here flew back got the audition then did. a couple spots then did a guest spot on. Holzman show and then I was in the car. in New York I pull over I'm just looking. at apartments in Texas I just call the. guy I go hey can I move there I made him. an offer I made him an offer that was. like insane I'm renting he literally. goes are you [ __ ] with me dude and uh. the next day he goes they took your. offer and I was and that was it wow yeah. and it was like uh I know Ron White.

calls it comedy Camp it feels like that. when you're when I'm landing here it. feels like Camp David or something yeah. Ari said it yesterday he said you made a. festival here every week it's like a. festival it's a festival yeah I wasn't. sure if I'd made the right move and then. I'm on the plane and it's rosean bar the. next row back Sebastian Maniscalco and. I'm right behind him wow and I was. losing my [ __ ]. [Music]. mind I was I go this is it yeah well.

whenever you don't know if you should do. something and you're like you want to do. something but then you have that little. oh I don't know is this right you got to. always go for it you got to do it you. got to go for it and you get better at. that as you age you know it's like you. have to you got to [ __ ] up a lot and. they go I'll [ __ ] up a little less this. time yeah the the [ __ ] up thing but it's. also just like Taking Chances going for. things is very important every time I've. ever done it it's been good in my whole. life every single time whether it's.

first time going on stage you know even. this even like moving here sure you know. because I have a family and I had a. business you know like this podcast that. requires guests and I had all these. people that already lived in La had this. built-in you know group of people that I. would have on it's just like coming out. here was but I was like this is this is. the move and then opening the club I was. like this is the move and it's going to. be [ __ ] annoying it's going to be a. lot of energy a lot of stuff going on a. lot of things to pay attention to but.

that's what really needs to happen you. get to practice your hour couple times a. week and the to the road comes to you. that's great that definitely helps a lot. just like keeps you so much healthier. it's crazy how much better you feel when. you don't travel every week it's nuts. like started touring this year it wears. you holy [ __ ] yeah it gets it's like. getting drunk yeah it's like getting. drunk and then you have a show that. night and then you have another show and. then you fly home and you get drunk. flying home because you know it feels.

like when you land like you're hung over. yeah you're just like oh why am I so. worn the [ __ ] out and with the heat here. man yeah you get used to that kind of I. understand Biden a little more I've been. walking around just like where am I. what's going on here [ __ ] my. pants ha you silly boy did you I was. telling you before this this Mayoral. race in San Francisco this might be the. end this this might be. like San Francisco is a failed City I.

mean it really is but this there's no. better indication of how failed it is. than listening to this debate listening. to these people argue about what's. important in San Francisco this was on. the Jesse water show you got to listen. to this how many drag queens do you. know you were at the debate last week. and couldn't name uh any drag queens on. your own I was wondering if you.

could this is an opportunity to redeem. yourself uh and if you could name three. lgbtq advisers for your campaign and. three drag queens uh in San Francisco. the San Francisco just imagine shut the. [ __ ] up and that was the thing she was. going to sit down on this is the actual. current mayor of San Francisco London. breeded yeah and she's like can you name. three. Queens can you m name three mentally ill.

men who dress up like the most tarsh. caricaturist like famous or just like. pixie that does the you know the kid. Story Hour down the library Lex yeah. Lexus down at the club she does the. burlesque show what the [ __ ] are you. talking about yeah no sit back and enjoy. this is sit back and enjoy the show when. woke wokeism just takes on a uh this. energy and and gets crazier and crazy I.

mean look at the the sexuality acronym. it used to be gay and lesbian G it is. watching politicians have to recite that. oh it's so it's like gun to their head. yeah Trudeau has them all down but the. my favorite is 2. AI plus plus 2s plus is like everybody's. in this gang that's not a white male. like like it's basically you mean the. American flag that would be a great flag. to. biracial people of color like there's so.

many different things. indigenous there's two spirit two. Spirits in there which is my favorite. I'm a two spirit what the [ __ ] are you. why not three why not four why not 45. you're limiting yourself and then a. which is hilarious too cuz how do they. have any say they're asexual asexual. like how are they in there with the. perverts how are they in there with the. freaks how are they in there with the. transgender people how they in there.

with [ __ ] guys wearing leather thongs. and gStrings walking down the street. with any part of this how does the A's. how are the A's in that they just don't. want to [ __ ] my friend came out as. bisexual this guy in New York and uh he. goes well I've been so oppressed I'm. like am I supposed to feel bad that you. get to [ __ ] everybody really just. like he's been oppressed how so I don't. know I I I don't know I mean how are you. it's a fun thing to say it's a fun thing. to say yeah and it also gives you like a.

position where people have to go oh my. God I'm so sorry you know what did I do. George Bush was like talking about Pride. the other day and I was like if he was. if he was yeah if yeah he was on some. interview and and I was like if he was. president today having to you know the L. the. lfos the HG TVs the pbn Jays these are. tasty folks you know my cousins are. translucent now watch this drive but. think about how much has changed sense.

him well he is so reasonable now in. compar I used to have a joke about um. Bush getting elected about the Iraq War. and that there's people in the back of. the room and their idea was the only way. to find out how dumb people really are. is to have a dumb president and see if. everybody freaks out because the only. way they know that he's dumb is if. they're smarter than him yeah so the. only way to find out is put a dumb. president and see how everybody resp. responds and then it was all about the.

Iraq War and then all these things. happened like what they believed what. they and then at the end of it I go I. think the people in the back of the room. were going I think we can go. dumber and they were right yeah they. were so right well people act like Trump. and Biden are the first wi we we had an. autistic Cowboy running the country for. eight years we wanted eight years of. that yeah yeah but people didn't want it. at the end which is why Obama won yeah. you know which is what this country. always does we go we swing hard one way.

and then we swing the other way and. Duncan Trussell said this when they were. smashing windows and looting during the. George Floyd protests Duncan said dude. this is going to be so bad because we're. going to have a right-wing authoritarian. president. next and I and I thought about it I was. like God damn he's probably right. because that's that's really what. happens there's like an. overcorrection one way and like the the. San Francisco London breed mayor thing. this is an overcorrection to.

discrimination so there is some. discrimination of gay people there's. discrimination of all kinds of people. how now though well there's still. there's still with gay people for sure. there's still people that are homophobic. especially religious people it's too. complicated now because it's like well. there's that and then there's you know. gay guys who dress up as women who want. to read to kids and then there's those. who cut their dicks it's two my dad came. out of the closet when I was seven so I. was raised in this stuff. came out as racist but he uh no he's gay.

I got a gay dad I have two D two Dad Mom. remarried and then my dad with a husband. and so it's funny I try to talk about. this like well shut up straight white. guy you this isn't your lived experience. I'm like no it is it is I do you say did. you say this on stage you talk about it. on stage I talk about everywhere yeah. people started booing me when I started. talking about this in in New York City a. long time ago was the first time where I. talked about my personal life cuz I have. a crazy everyone has a Crazy Life what. were they booing. well they're just like you can't talk.

you can't talk about you can't that's. their life you can't talk about what. it's like to be a gay person and it's. like when I was seven I was hiding it. from my friend so I was living like a. closeted gay guy I I I went to insane. lengths to hide my dad having a. boyfriend cuz back this was. 1993 that's when it was you know and. prior that's when it was bad but I I I I. imagine what guys like that think of of. what's going on now to be like you're.

like a two spirit heter nor whatever. this [ __ ] is yeah and back then it was. bad um but when I was in uh Middle. School my friend Josh his mom was gay. and he didn't tell us and nobody nobody. talked about it but I lesbian mom's a. little cooler though she I mean she had. the whole thing like she was wearing the. sleeveless vest with the big arms she. was a big lady and she had a girlfriend. with short hair that was always over the. house it was like the whole like you'd.

go who's that lady that's my mom's. friend why is she always over did she. live with you that's exactly what. happened it was one of them things yeah. uh but I lived in San Francisco and so. when I moved to Boston I moved to. Florida for a few years then we moved to. Boston like i' had been around gay. people from the time I was 7 to 11: like. my neighbors Were Gay my aunt used to go. over and play bongos with them naked. they would smoke pot and play Bongos I. remember so just way cooler yeah I mean. she just loved the fact she could just. be naked around eyes and no one cared.

but it was just this thing where like. the whole neighborhood was gay everybody. was gay gay was super normal to me I. did but so my friend was like hiding the. fact that his mom was gay you know we. never really pressed him on it but me. and my other friend were like yeah his. mom's gay right like oh yeah obviously. but you know we were 13 like what are. you going to do for men I think it was. associated with AIDS so I remember I was. in the car and uh you know we would like.

raise money for AIDS runs and all this. stuff and my friend's like that's the. AIDS thing right yeah and I would tell. him my dad's an attorney I would tell. him cuz he' go it's my partner and I. would tell my friends and I they why why. is your dad's partner sleeping over it's. his law partner I go they're working on. a case they're going to be up all night. fellas you know if you hear some banging. and moaning and Sh they're recreating. the murder they're in there I would come. up with this it's probably why I'm a. good writer cuz I I I back then it was. not accept it at all when did everybody.

figure it out I I never told anybody wow. yeah I think I was in college the first. time I told somebody cuz I was a theater. major so it was like I was safe yeah I. was the weird one being St and it also. gives you like social props it does. street street cred yeah I'll take. whatever I can get now when you got. resting January 6 face man you need. something do you think you have January. 6th what you do with that hat resting. January 6th yeah yeah yeah yeah I don't. know I don't care I I I used I was.

raised to hate America all that [ __ ]. I [ __ ] love this country man it's a. great country there's no reason to hate. America we should always hate bad. behavior in all groups of people left. and right shitty shitty evil people on. both sides that's what we're supposed to. hate we're not supposed to hate America. and the history it's history you got to. honor it even like the stuff growing up. with my dad and stuff I had a lot of. resentment about that but I thought you. know what that's my that that was my. burden to bear and I have friends who.

you know who saw my you know gay was bad. back then but they'd see my dad being a. great dad and cooking us dinner and and. so their introduction to a homosexual. was this normal guy my dad he looks like. you he's like looks like kind of like. Bruce Willis and [ __ ] he's just a. normal dude he's not a feminine he. doesn't do the like yah like you know. which is interesting right that there's. different groups of gay people we assoc.

associate gay with people who behave in. a very specific exaggerated way yeah but. you know well they're the loudest ones. on the floats with their dick out and a. four-year-old's face well that's what's. weird it's like it's not just gay pride. it's overtly sexual behavior Pride you. know those things should have nothing to. do with so different like the gay I know. so many gay guys that are just like you. would never know unless they told they. were gay they just seemed like men do.

you think people are actually homophobic. or did they're just they have an issue. with it getting sort of convoluted into. this sexual thing that our kids are. seeing I think people who are homophobic. just lack Nuance they they don't. understand that there's weird people in. every group like would you be. heterophobic if you found out about. people that are child. molesters you know like if there was men. that wanted to date 14-year-old girls.

and have sex with 14-year-old girls you. wouldn't be heterophobic because of that. just like you shouldn't be homophobic if. there's gay men that want to groom young. boys it's not about the gay it's about. [ __ ] it's about shitty members of. society and it's about a lot of them are. people who are victims themselves and. then they perpetuate it again later in. life it's it's almost like being bitten. by a vampire one of the things that. happens with a lot of these molested.

guys that's how you become gay by the. way blah bitten by vampire yeah but a. lot of these um molested guys wind up. doing it to other kids which is [ __ ]. insanely evil like their their life got. destroyed yeah and then they want up. destroying other people's lives I think. it's some like 30% become molesters. crazy this I U my priest and I don't. know the backstory on this but he ble he. blew his brains out when I was 8 years. old Jesus dude seven and eight was rough. for seven was Dad coming out and then um.

the priest what did the priest do that. he wanted to blow his brains out I don't. know but I always Catholic I always. think about it cuz I'm like were my. [ __ ] that bad you know what I mean. were they that bad was it C I know after. the blow he didn't touch me cuz I I. wasn't a part of it Catholic Methodist. Methodist interesting are they allowed. to get married yeah I think so huh the. cath allowed to blow their brains out at. he did it at the altar oh my God in. front of everybody no off day thank God.

but I remember going back in like the. next day and we just had a new guy and. he had a mustache he looked like Ned. Flanders and I'm like no I can't I can't. do this any like did they tell everybody. what happened yeah did he leave a. note uh me probably maybe I don't know. does anybody know like what was wrong no. I Googled it it's been wiped I can't. even find the story boy I know yeah. they're good at wiping that well there's. a [ __ ] is a horrible thing that you.

people connect priest with child. molesters cuz you know like just like. we're talking about other things there's. a group of them well I wonder if by. occupation that they're if it's the most. I can't say for sure but it's certainly. Associated the most like it's not like. NASCAR drivers imagine if that many. Nascar drivers were molesting kids. they'd shut NASCAR down at a [ __ ]. heartbeat sure they meanwhile the. Catholic Church gets tax exempt status. right you know they literally guilty of.

moving people who are molesters to. another place where they can molest new. people instead of turning them in that's. what uh Pope Benedict got in trouble for. it's one of the reasons why he stepped. down really yeah he was responsible for. moving this one guy that went on to. molest a hundred deaf. kids yeah yeah they they would move. these people to places where they could. get away with it instead of turn them in. and I don't know if they gave them. counseling I mean what the [ __ ] the. thing about that particular evil the.

evil of child molesters is you don't it. doesn't seem to be able to be fixed like. no one you know if you were a guy who is. like a like a Wolf of Wall Street guy he. did a lot of crazy [ __ ] with the stock. market but then you realized like I. [ __ ] up you know I should have never. done that I was doing drugs I [ __ ] up. people like kind of accept that you're. not a thief anymore you can go do talk. shows you know you could write a book. and people go wow that guy they made a.

movie out of him you know Leonardo. DiCaprio Leonardo DiCaprio played him in. a [ __ ] movie and now he's out there. he's back but we don't think that way. about child molesters it's the one like. if you murdered somebody like I was. young I was stupid I hated that person I. didn't think I murdered them you do 25. years in jail you come out maybe with. think like that guy's reformed there's. no feeling like that ever with you go. out and make midnight at Paris after. that yes well he did he never went to.

jail no I don't I don't know if he did. you know well he did something I I went. out with a girl who told she goes I feel. like I'm with hanging out with Woody. Allen when I'm hanging out with you and. I was like I don't know if that was a. like what year Woody Allen yeah like. you're giving me an existential crisis. you know you're not even Asian you know. I'm I'm trying something different have. you ever listened to his old standup. yeah I like it it's so pervy yeah he's. very pervy yeah but it's it's hilarious. how openly pervy is and then you have to.

think of the time in which he was doing. the standup this is the 1960s yeah so. he's doing this like weird sexual I was. [ __ ] a moose you know the Moose had. me mounted on the wall and I was you. know well he's talking about. girls about girls I loved girls his. voice is so to be a you know you know he. really this is really what his voice is. you know you're a knockout showe you. really are and he an odd dude yeah that. show when you're funny though you can be. that's that's your currency he's an ugly.

weird looking guy but if you're funny. you that's that's what you do yeah up. until the whole child molesting. accusations yeah she was a bit of a. batshit crazy lady to I mean both of. them deserve whatever happened they both. deserve it she was adopting kids and. returning them what yeah oh yeah she. return them Yo all the time yeah why. yeah she just B in like this one you. know she would get like mangled kids and. and all these uh you know they'd have. all these disabilities and stuff and.

then she would return them wow yeah I. mean all all the kids have come out with. different stories but you know well if. you're fost deserve other if you're. fostering kids and taking care care of. kids you're you're taking care of kids. that have already experienced like some. crazy [ __ ] you know so these kids are. probably already [ __ ] up probably. already I didn't speak English they'd. bring them in from uh different. countries China and stuff they didn't. speak English they'd be like disabled. and then Woody Allen's like you want you.

want to go for a walk you know. mean but his movies are so good they're. pretty good they're not that good. they're not that good but but what I. love about it is that different nobody. could do that now and go I can go go. make a movie a year you're going I'm. going to see the Rogan movie I'm going. to see the uh I'm seeing the Shane. Gillis movie did he really make one a. year yeah wow he made him real cheap. didn't pay himself and uh that we'll. never have that again I even remember. when I was in my teens going I'm seeing.

the Woody Allen movie you didn't even. care what it was it's like a new. comedian special coming out you just go. like they were always good right like. how many does he have oh my god look how. many movies he has man absolutely he's. still making them he's still making them. that one's good ring in New York it's. good3 where where does he live now he. lives in Manhattan still yeah same place. upper east side I wonder if he gets. [ __ ] with like can he just walk around. probably he's D he's old old man yeah he. is old I don't think people would.

recognize him really oh come on not not. the younger not the younger generation I. think they know who he is he never lived. with meia Pharaoh I found out so they. never lived they never even slept over. each other's house they were never. married oh no kidding yeah doesn't make. it less weird that he started [ __ ]. her daughter but no it does not you know. especially he knew her since she was. like. two yeah yeah yeah not good yeah yeah. that's what he looks like now yeah they'.

recognize him in a heartbeat dude well. she's older now yeah he's 88 wow God. damn he's done the pandemic I think. finished him he's 88 finished him well I. mean just life is finishing him he's 88. years old man I mean that's just and he. just still does a movie a year what did. he get arrested for there that's from a. movie Take the Money and Run I. think yeah he had some great [ __ ]. movies man he did. but he's a he's a real like germaphobe.

neurotic guy the pandemic ruined anybody. that had that type of Personality oh I. know a few people oh God yeah done yeah. they're not coming back not that's that. is a tragedy this is that's the tragedy. of our time man yeah there were people. that were barely hanging on oh yeah they. were riddled with anxiety yeah I was one. of them but but it was more because I. because I didn't get the vaccine and. couldn't take part in society that was a. fun experiment we did that we're just. going to pretend like never happened.

yeah that was an interesting thing. interesting little thing yeah yeah we. had segregation in this country based on. medicine and then we're back to. pretending like it never [ __ ]. happened well well at least now they're. they're having hearings on it yeah nine. years later fouchi was on TV the other. day going you know it could have come. from the the lab it may have been a leak. I want to stay open-minded and on CNN. they're like yeah okay like. what do you see all that stuff coming. out his audio you got to make human.

pressure people you got to yeah they'll. drop their ideological [ __ ] when. they can't work' been shown when you. make their lives difficult they will. drop their ideological [ __ ] just. give them another booster boost imag. saying that about people's jobs that. you're going to force them into making a. decision with their own body and not. only that but mandate and not only that. as a doctor know that some people are. allergic to some of the. component some of the some of the.

actually ingredients in this vaccin. Aaron Rogers is one of them he's. allergic to one of the chemicals that's. in it you can't take it and some people. have immune systems that work pretty. well and maybe you didn't you don't need. to start jabbing them with experimental. stuff I mean yeah it's a wild thing that. happened and so many people are still. defending it because they defended it. previously they're not defending it from. a position of like objectivity like here. we are 2024 let's look at the data no. they're defending it from this weird.

place of I defended it three years ago. and I shamed people three years ago and. we were right we were right we were. right you were wrong we were right it. saved millions they always say that it. saved Millions which is by the way. there's no way to tell if that's true. way tell the number of people that. actually die from covid is so grossly. exaggerated most people think it's a. very high number of people that died. from covid it's less than 1% it's like. was it three is it like onethird of 1%.

is that what it is something like that. and I don't know one per I know people. do and some people you know I know a. couple of people that di but but it's. not what I remember I you know I I was. watching CNN I was kind of like a. brainwashed woke person until the. pandemic really every day I was on scene. and watching watching that death ticker. that like the stock market and then when. I made my decision not to get the. vaccine and I lost almost every friend. every job and was called like a.

far-right trump supporter I go okay this. is we've never done this before what. what was your decision why did you. decide not to take it well I mean I'm. not getting something first of all it. wouldn't have been made that Trump's. really good at pushing things through. regulations very fast if we had any. other president there's no way that's. what warp speed you remember warp speed. Joe right nobody can do that we call it. warp speed Edison couldn't it with. lightning speed but I did warp speed I. made it they said sir it'll take 15.

years I made it in two days he's. bragging about how quick he did it yeah. and I'm I'm not going to [ __ ] get. that I'm young I'm healthy I had covid I. had natural immunity I was doing what. everybody has done throughout history. right you already had Co which is really. important yeah so why risk that and what. was the um what version of Co did you. have the earliest one I had the first. the first the OG the original and how. bad was it for you it was uh it was like. I get the flu every year I'm tiny I'm a.

sickly person you know I'm allergic to. [ __ ] cigarette can I can I get one of. those [ __ ] things why not one of. these I quit smoking when I was 12 but. but you smoke a cigar I started when I. was 10 oh okay yeah 10 to 21 I smoked. for 11 years nice so let's start now. sorry I would have invited no it's fine. it's fine just God damn how did I know. that you had quit. cigarettes no you wouldn't know that. somebody I think somebody brought it up. well I put up sign when I was filming. the special that uh like a no smoking.

sign pull that down oh yeah okay a no. smoking sign like a Mark's brother when. they're [ __ ] well I had a I had a. when I wasil I filmed the special last. week and I we were live editing it so I. put up a no smoking sign in The Green. Room CU I had all these I had all this. camera crew and stuff in. there what do you hit this thing the. other side the the top that's flipped. the way I handed it to you turn it. towards you turn towards you no no no. the other way you see that that's the. top and pulled that thing down that's it.

there you go but you got it backwards. you should do it the other way so you. can see what you're doing oh like this. yeah there you go this is a coup I was. good at this when I was 12 where oh yeah. I used to steal cigars I was in like a. skateboard gang and I was so small. they'd send me under the counter and I. would steal like thousands of dollars of. cigars under counters yeah i' sneak. under the counter of a drugstore oh God. cuz I was so small and then I'd come out. with uh and we would would sell them on. the street you your gang sold stolen.

cigars stolen stolen cigars and we grew. weed in uh my backyard yeah yeah it was. a real it was a gang I mean somebody. stole our weed once we went and flipped. their car over and burn and and burnt it. wow yeah Jesus yeah yeah so that's you. know the privilege of growing up in. Connecticut it was a privileg what part. of Connecticut uh New Haven know new hav. it's called gun blazing everyone's like. oh you're so privileged it was a you. know New Haven's a sketchy place sketchy. yeah we gunshots every night every.

single night SK I used to do the Joker's. Wild comedy club in New Haven you did. yeah oh yeah is that still around I. don't know it's where I I did my first. Open Mic at no [ __ ] you did your first. open mic there wow yeah actually no. first one was uh was the uh cafeteria at. College yeah I was in a play I was. playing George Bush first acting role I. ever did stuff happens did you ever hear. about that play no stuff happens it in. the West End in London it was all actual.

quotes from George Bush and his. administration the whole thing and it's. [ __ ] amazing really yeah yeah the war. in Terror which weapons of mass. destruction all the whole the way they. it was almost like the pandemic the way. they scared people weapons of mass. destruction we got to take them out we. got to do what we got to do and we went. in there and what came of that yeah. Biden pulling out leaving billions of.

dollars. of [ __ ] behind yeah if you just compared. Biden to George Bush George Bush looks. like a [ __ ] road scholar crazy we. thought that he was an. idiot we thought God I can't this such. an embarrassment that that guy is the. president yeah and now look at the two. choices we have you're like yo Bush. would be like the like the wise choice. at this point yeah you know oh yeah dude. you ever watch the the clip when they're.

like asking him I think about Bin Laden. or something he like he we're going to. find Bin Laden but first watch this. drive I watch that every. day it was a good drive yeah and it was. a way of keeping people Comm and like. he's so American he just is we're dumb. we're [ __ ] stupid yeah he's a. transport to Texas you know they're from. Maine he was born in New Haven do you. know that was really and he denies it he. denies the bridge that goes into New. Haven is the George W bush bridge and he. denies he was born in Yale New Haven.

Hospital wait a minute why would he lie. about that cuz he wants to be te I'm. from Texas you know red white and blue I. everybody knows they're from Ken buunk. Port Maine born in New Haven really oh. yeah interesting they're like [ __ ] you. we're naming the bridge after it is. American hey baby New Haven yeah New. Haven Connecticut so at one point in. time he was hiding this is that what it. is isn't that funny he's younger than. both [ __ ] Trump and. Biden he's Jesus Christ he hasn't been. the president in like 20 [ __ ] years.

that's so crazy he's younger than both. of them that's so nuts looking at that. that is so nuts crazy that's so nuts I. would vote for him for a third term 100%. in second come on back George yeah we. need a laugh buddy and bring that Darth. Vader [ __ ] fake heart [ __ ]. with you yeah Dick Cheney yeah is he. still alive yeah he's literally in the. Bible he had no pulse at one point in. time. no pulse because he had an artificial.

heart put in while they were waiting to. put a replacement heart in had an. artificial pump put in so this pump. continually circulated blood it didn't. have a pulse so he had no pulse tell me. that's not in the Bible isn't that in. the Bible my God I don't know maybe. heard my priest blew his brains out when. I was eight I I kind of stopped reading. but I mean if you're going to have like. a a demon. incarnate like you probably have no. pulse you know. watching Biden a like when he freezes up.

now oh yeah you think he's gone man well. he's gonna go but it's also he's. freezing up medicated to the tits like. whatever they're doing to keep him alive. IV vitamin transfusions and [ __ ]. hormones and amphetamines whatever. they're doing I don't know what they're. doing neut tropics I don't know what. they're doing he could be the first. president to be assassinated by time. yeah I mean I just he's not going to. make it I just can't believe they're. running him it doesn't even make sense. the more he flails about in these.

speeches the more he [ __ ] up and more. it's like almost like he feels like he's. doesn't want to do it so he's trying to. get out of why are they saying this. didn't happen this did not happen White. House denies claims Biden froze at. fundraiser event they're calling them. cheap fakes now but wait a minute. there's a video of the show where look I. don't think that's a big deal the. thing's over he gets LED off the stage. like who cares that's nothing. some of the other stuff like what was. that one where he was like yelling at.

people like. completely just yelling with a big smile. on his face he always does that yeah but. this was a wild one that's just him. walking off with Joe Biden with Obama. like who cares that doesn't I think it. was the like he gave him the little. pinch on the arm like you do to your. grandma go he's looking at the let's go. he's just looking out at the crowd which. is odd too he does look Frozen though. yeah he's Frozen yeah but whatever yeah. that's the least of the things that have. gone wrong the thing of have you seen.

the video of him yelling Jamie there's. this crazy video he's like like he's not. saying someone says something to him and. he yells something back but it's. literally no words and then he has a big. smile on his face he yells and then he. does that whisper he. like. stop the bill there it's hard to believe. it's real it's hard it's almost like. we're being punked by China. yeah oh they yeah they definitely doing.

that they're definitely doing that but. Co was a bit of a punk a little bit a. little yeah minor worldwide uhuh Punk. that we funded that we funed yeah our. tax dollars I how about reparations for. everybody who got fired for not getting. the covid vaccine I think everyone. should get a fat check. $1,000 that's not a bad idea and that's. not even enough how many people lost. their [ __ ]. jobs destroyed people this isn't it not. it let me hear this though let me hear.

what this one is Donald Trump when he. was commander and chief refused to visit. a cemetery us Cemetery outside of Paris. for fallen American soldiers and he. referred to those Heroes and I quote as. suckers and. losers he actually said that oh he said. that how dare he say that how dare he. talk about my son and all us rest like. that. what how dare.

you sweet old man though yeah is that. how his son died why is he saying his. son his son the death of his son changes. by the. day it's like yeah but what is he saying. there is he saying is his son died as a. military person yeah I don't think he. died in war he's he's mixes it up does. it say how he died he died from. cancer uh Biden had radiation and. chemotherapy treatments cancer remained. stable May 20th 2015 was admitted to.

Walter Reed National Medical Center in. Bethesda Maryland because of recurrence. of brain cancer he died there 10 days. later. okay what is what does that have to do. what why is he saying how dare they talk. about my son he he'll link everything to. his son oh no no no exposure to military. burn pits oh in Iraq okay that makes. sense okay uh so what did he do. according to his father Bo was dial uh. diagnosed with how say that.

word. ank an Anil loing span deltis. delius anky losing span spond deltis. after returning from service in Kosovo. he was later diagnosed with brain cancer. his father believes is a possible a. possibly consequence of exposure to. military burn pit. well those burn pits 100% [ __ ] people up.

that's so crazy they did that too they. had soldiers over there and they had all. this waste and they just burned it all. and then so the wind would just blow it. right into the camp so these soldiers. are just breathing in toxic chemical. waste. yeah yikes yeah what the [ __ ] man and. what was his Sun doing where sun was in. Koso was the sun. serving I think I think so. is that what.

happened it's amazing how Trump he he. looks like he looks so young and. energized compared to Biden now yeah but. it's just compared to bid just compared. to it he was in Kosovo after 19 1998. 1999 Kosovo War working on behalf of the. osce to train judges and prosecutors for. the Lo local Judicial System 2004 became. a partner in the law firm of to. Fado genoi Biden and baleck where he.

worked for two years before being. elected Attorney General of. Delaware he was nominated John when Joe. bid was nominated for vice president Bo. introduced him many delegates wept at. his speech which were cred the auto. accident that killed his mother and. sister and the subsequent commitment his. father made to his. sons so his active duty uh deployed to. Iraq sent to Fort Bliss for. predeployment training this day after.

his father participated 2008. presidential campaign's only vice. presidential debate father was on record. saying I don't want him going but I tell. you what I don't want my grandson or my. granddaughters going back in 15 years so. I can't see it all Jamie it's cut. off oh so how we leave makes a big. difference whoa that didn't age well so. how we leave makes a big difference then. you think about what they did in. Afghanistan yeah yeah man [ __ ] that. job [ __ ] [ __ ] that job you you literally.

have to be a crazy person to want that. job like do you imagine wanting the. stress of being either the vice. president or the president Brian Regan. has a joke about being president every. morning you wake up someone's like. problems sir lots and lots of problems. any of those jobs there's not one day. where everything's like [ __ ] yeah. everything do you think they should have. an age cap on the politicians well they. got a minimum right 35 to run if you. want to be a fireman you have to show. that you're physically competent you you. have to complete a physical fitness.

course sure you have to you know because. you might be have to do things if you. are a president I think you should have. to commit a mental Fitness course like. they should have to test you with. puzzles they should have to ask you yeah. yeah like legitimately like it sounds. stupid but that's a good way to find out. whether someone's brain works well sure. test people with uh puzzles and quizzes. and ask them questions about history and. they shouldn't be able to prepare for it. I think it should be something that you.

just you just announce today's the day. we're going to pull them into this room. and we're going to film it all and ask. him a bunch of questions about all kinds. of things and then let's find out how. that guy how his brain works I mean I. think Mitch McConnell had two strokes in. a very short amount of time he locks up. whatever that is I don't think it's a. stroke but it's he definitely locks up. like Windows 95 yeah yeah it's not good. it's not good and he's not not stepping. down the these people are so old they're.

so old and they shouldn't be doing. anything they certainly shouldn't be. running the world for future Generations. that they are absolutely not going to. witness Mitch McConnell is actually. stepping down oh he will step down when. did he decide not too long ago just a. couple months ago they said oh okay. finally yeah 82 but he should have steep. down [ __ ] immediately he sounds like. Mr M and Jimmy store. I mean you're you're XI ping or whatever. watching these politicians just having a.

good chuckle I think they that gping. knows those politicians don't really run. jack. [ __ ] it's the you know what Trump likes. to call the Deep State the Deep State. real it's real there there's a bunch of. people that run the the government from. who are they though well there's a lot. of money there's heads of immense. corporations that have incredible. Financial control and influence on. politicians this is the reason why. lobbyists are some of the richest.

[ __ ] people in the country like some. of the richest real estate is in. Virginia right out out of DC and it's a. lot of it's lobbyists the amount of. money that they pour into campaigns and. pour into making sure that their agendas. are being met and that their businesses. get to grow because of regulations or. lack of regulations or tariffs or lack. of tariffs or whatever the [ __ ] they're. trying to do that's that's who runs. things really and makes decisions and. then the politicians keep us embattled.

in these social squabbles you know it's. like when they have when KLA Harris had. uh this guy in a dress with a beard come. to the White House recently and she's. like oh my God for pride month come on. in you're in the white house like that. is to accentuate this the social. squabbling it's so people get fired up. yay queers are in the White House and. then other people go what the [ __ ] are. queers doing in the white else it's like. that this this is a part of the grand.

plan to keep people not paying attention. to the really important issues and to. just constantly it's like these these. [ __ ] beach balls they throw up at a. concert they constantly get thrown up. there's gay Mar they're going to take. away gay marriage now they're going to. take away abortion they're going to take. away this guns the border and they just. keep throwing these things in the air so. you're just like looking left and right. and looking left and right and while.

this is going on there's all sorts of. laws being passed that allow them to. look at any computer any laptop any any. phone they're going to be able to bypass. encryption with AI I was just watching a. video where a security expert was. talking about that he was talking about. uh what's that guy's name Rob braxman he. was talking about um how AI in your. operating system. like once they get AI in your operating. system all this stuff like signal and.

WhatsApp encrypted end to end encrypted. devices that's nonsense it's not going. to work anymore it's not going to do. anything they're they're going to be. able to get your information before it's. encrypted as you're typing it before you. send it everything is going to be. transparent they'll have access to. anything they want anything you have on. any device it doesn't matter what kind. of encryption what kind of [ __ ]. you're using all that's out the window. and he was explaining that [ __ ] what.

about uh elon's neurolink chip is that. do you think people are going to have. those yeah and they can just go open up. you know they don't have to say it if. you just think it open up Google you. know that's going to happen there's. going to be versions of that and it's. going to get we had um what's Nolan's. last name arbau say it again arbau ARB. you say it the right way Arbok or B. arbau arbau um he's the first neuralink. patient we have him in uh the other day. and uh I think the episode comes out.

today yeah it's out now yeah it's out. now and yeah he's the first guy link and. sound like Elon it's working pretty well. it's very very smart working pretty well. very smart very interesting person to. talk to completely paralyzed from the. neck down except for a few movements in. his hands and like he can kind of move a. little bit his spinal cord's not totally. severed but it's very badly damaged from. a [ __ ] an accident in the river and uh. now with this neuralink he can play. video games he can do all kinds of [ __ ].

and he said the cursor goes where his. his eyes go the cursor goes like exactly. where he wants it to go so he's like I. have a built-in Aimbot if I'm playing. video games cuz I could just I don't. miss he's he's like iing look right at. it I can shoot at things which is pretty. wild and it makes you think like okay. well for soldiers that's a must yeah you. have to give them that you know and that. you know some of the fighter jets the.

new helmets that they have on now are. Augmented Reality helmets and when. they're flying the Jets as they're. looking at a specific spot that's where. the crosshairs go so the the crosshairs. are connected to this this are we going. to be doing that with jokes like you. just like hit the punchline I think. comedy's probably going to be one of the. last places where the actual Human. Experience exists in a pure form for you. know it's one one of several reasons why.

at the mothership we make people put. their phones in the bag like get that. out of your head yeah stop looking at. that just sit down and watch a show huge. difference it's a giant difference but. if we could still have things like that. it'll remind us of what it's like to be. a human you know feel like the movies. have kind of Gone Away going to the. movie theater I stopped well I stopped. during the pandemic because you couldn't. go and then I was like oh this is way. better if you have a nice TV home and no. one's going interrupt and you know. there's something about that kind of.

taking a girl on a date but oh yeah I. remember I went everybody had to be 6. feet apart and you know two people in. each row and that's all made up when. they found out six oh my he's like it. was out there I didn't I didn't make up. the rules that was out there from the. flu when we didn't even have [ __ ]. electricity back then well it's there's. no it doesn't make sense it's in the air. it's a respiratory virus they've never. ever ever in the history of human beings. been able to contain a respiratory virus.

you can't do it if a respiratory virus. gets out to a certain number of people. and it starts spreading through certain. it's just going to and it also has uh. animal reservoirs so one of the things I. find it it actually can exist in certain. animals in fact in Deer they tested a. bunch of white-tailed deer just wild. deer and a bunch of them tested positive. for. covid-19 I look back at this that's six. they's still six feet stand six feet.

apart on the airport it's so [ __ ]. stupid it's so stupid but it was all a. thing where people looked for something. to make them feel better right so even. though masks didn't work um even though. six foot distancing didn't work if you. were out in public and you knew that. covid was a thing and there wasn't some. sort of fake measure that made you at. least feel safe like you have to stand a. a little bit apart from each other you. have to wear the mask we're going to be. okay if we follow these rules we took.

the vaccine we're standing 6 feet away. we're wearing a mask and so all those. things even though none of those things. kept you from getting covid zero of. those things kept you from getting covid. in fact there's more evidence now that. the more of those shots you take the. more you get covid and there's a bunch. of different reasons for that but I'm. not a biologist or biologist but those. things at least kept people thinking. that they were doing the right thing and. that maybe they're going to be safe. instead of just a freak out of a bunch. of people with no masks and a wild.

disease that we've been told is going to. kill everybody I saw the clip of him. saying you know MK really they'll make. you feel better and so I thought okay. that makes sense no but he said In that. clip yeah it's not going to help it's. not going to help and then wear one then. you people start wearing two yeah he was. wearing two yeah you got to wear two. then wear a face shield then put a. [ __ ] diaper over your [ __ ] head. the wear to is just like the woke [ __ ]. in San Francisco it never stops it would. go to wear a beekeeper outfit it would. go further if they let it stay on I wear.

two masks now I feel more protected yeah. wrap yourself in plastic and just stay. underw it's amazing how that guy can. Gaslight it's amazing he does it and. he's his hands fidget in the most can. tell with his body language oh he's. [ __ ] I love watching him when he's in. Congress when they're when they're you. know interrogating them it's all. political theater Ron it's all. misinformation and disinformation yeah. oh he's well he's well prepared to.

Gaslight but how can people still watch. him and go yeah you know we did the. right thing even in that audio that you. were talking about when you said when. you make people's lives difficult they. will drop their ideological [ __ ] and. get vaccinated [ __ ] worked he said in. when they were qu when they were. quizzing him on this when they were. asking him about this and confronting. him with this he said that's not what I. meant. yeah he's sick he's a sick mad SCI what.

could you possibly have meant other than. what you said he if you were that guy. yeah this is not like a thought. experiment you're hanging out with. buddies and you're like imagine if you. were a guy and you like you would tell. people no that's not what that was that. was you the head of the NIH you the head. of our America's Corona virus task force. you're the big guy you're the one. America looks to for the answers and. you're that yeah shame them and it but. God did that work man I that was what I.

what I learned from that was how hard it. is to stand up for something you believe. in godamn to to go I'm going to do this. and that I'm going you start to see your. friends disappear your family I I wasn't. allowed for home for Christmas yeah I. had to sit outside on a porch with half. my family outside wearing masks on and. I'm standing on the other side it's 38°. out wow and I'm going what am I at like. like the first AIDS patient here how do.

they respond to that now do they. apologize no no it's well no just. everything's just back we're just back. we're back open you know it's um but. that's do you think that's just human. nature like we're going to yeah people. are cowards people are cowards and. there's like a mass psychosis that. happens like everybody to collectively. panicked in the face of this fear that. we had never experienced before like a. global pandemic In Our Lifetime and then.

people fell apart like that's what. happens to people when they get. pressured there's a lot of people out. there that have never really experienced. actual pressure in their life so when. something scary like a virus comes into. their life they fold up like a house of. cards they just can't take it they don't. know what the [ __ ] to do and they don't. have any personal sovereignty so they. don't have the ability to go wait what. what is everyone saying doesn't make any. sense why am I going to do that what are. the consequences what how much do we.

know about pharmaceutical drug companies. have they ever lied before oh they have. have they ever been fine oh the most. fines in medical history okay what are. these studies like how long did they. take to do these studies like it's 100%. effective what does that mean how do. they Define 100% effective does that. mean if you take it you definitely won't. get covid because that's what I thought. it meant do you know what it meant an. 100% effective and stopping death in the. vaccine Robert Kennedy explained this to. me um this is his words not mine but if.

he's right it's the craziest [ __ ]. thing I've ever heard in my life I think. he's right in the placebo group two. people di I'm GNA do his voice while you. talk if you don't mind don't do that in. the placebo group two people died from. covid in the vaccine group one person. died two is 100% more than one so it's. 100% effective. imagine that yeah imagine that kind of.

math that's that's fouchy kind of nobody. really knew nobody knew it's like 100%. affected so you get people like Rachel. mat on TV telling you that the virus. stops with you you can't you can't get. infected you can't transmit and then. they never even they they had to admit. later in European court that they never. even tested it for transmission it was. never tested for transmission who who. hears that and is going to go ah [ __ ] it. so no everyone's like yeah yeah I get I. get to be the hero I get to get the shot. and I get to end it I end that's how put.

it on your [ __ ] Instagram I got. vaccin and you know what [ __ ] fine. but don't shame the people who just made. the decision that it's not for me I. never said one negative thing about the. vaccine or who got it and goddamn dude. even in the in the standup scene I was a. farri i Qing on all the [ __ ] things. yeah horse medicine guy you know you. know it's like listen man I got it on CN. I know it I know it more than anybody. knows. it Chris CUO would not did you see the.

Dave Smith dude Dave Smith he [ __ ] lit. him on fire god he lit him on fire on. his corpse that piece of [ __ ] that that. clip actually I made I did an impression. of you doing an impression of Don Lemon. dude wait you don't get the vaccine. can't go to work yeah don't get the. vaccine you you can't take a poop don't. get the vaccine unbelievable that that. is on national television and that clip. lives on and they get to just get away. with that well not only that him and. Chris Chromo when he's talking about.

people injecting veterinary medicine and. then Chris qumo saying icon a. dormer like the the stupidity in which. they were describing on cable television. like first of all you're not injecting. anything you [ __ ] idiot you're taking. a small pill that's one of the safest. drug profiles of any drug in recorded. history that's been prescribed to Human. beings billions of times and the fact. that they had the balls to go on TV and.

frame it that way and then Chris quomo. with with Dave Smith saying like this is. what we were being told that they were. to like you don't have Google like you. just go out on CNN you spit out what. they're telling you like you didn't look. at it at all even even at the same token. even if you wanted to go experiment with. an actual why don't you get to do that. so you everybody has to take this. experimental [ __ ] rushed vaccine that. Trump pushed the regulations yeah but. you're missing the point the point is I. was already better that's the dumbest.

part about this the dumbest part about. let him experiment let him not. experiment that's not the point the. point was I got better really quick. which is hoay yeah yeah but they didn't. want that so that's when the machine. moved and you know they went with this. horse dewormer narrative because they. were worried that other people were. going to start taking Ivor mechon I took. a bunch of things and I talked about all. I didn't say iveron by itself I said IV. vitamins monal ad anybody zpacks I I. said I literally gave the list of.

different things there was um some cero. what is that stuff. called there was some sort of a steroid. that I took too what was it called you. were better like in two days or. something right quick holy [ __ ] like. quick like it was gone 56 Old God damn I. was I was working I did 10 Rounds on the. bag six days later I was like let's see. what's going on cuz the only way to. really see what's going on see if have. endurance yeah I did 10 rounds in the. back I was nothing 5 days in I did a.

workout and I was I tried it I was like. I feel pretty good I'm I don't want to. like relapse because I kept hearing that. people would work out too quick and. they'd relapse so I said let me just go. through like a decent workout and see. how I feel if I feel at all drained or. tired I'm pretty in tune which is you. know how I knew something was wrong in. the first place I'm pretty tuned in to. my body and then the next day I said all. right let's [ __ ] push it let's see. what's up and I I pushed it I felt 100%. I was 100% 6 days later and I think I.

was 100% 5 days later I just didn't. try so that was bad for the narrative. because the narrative was this thing was. super dangerous you know you you need to. take a vaccine this the only way through. it and my doctor was saying no no it's. not as dangerous as they're saying. especially someone like you who works. out every day and takes vitamins every. day and always eats health this is not. the thing that's going to get you he's. like with the people that are dying what. I'm seeing is people with comorbidities.

he was explaining everything to me and. he recommended a series of nutrients to. take to prepare yourself to like to pump. up your immune system and he's like but. there's a bunch of things that you can. take if you do get infected that will. help you recover and that's what I took. and it worked yeah think how many people. could have perhaps replicated that they. didn't want that in order to have the. emergency use authorization so that they. could make sure that everybody gets. vaccinated they had to have no other.

treatments that's why they demonized. icon that's why they demonized hydroxy. chloroquin that's why they they kept a. lot of people from getting monoclonal. antibodies they didn't want any solution. other than the one that was going to. make them insane amounts of money and. that's what they pushed for and we went. through that yeah and the thing is like. are did we learn that's the question did. we learn I don't think so I don't know I. don't know I think a lot of people. learned a lot of people learned I think. and I think a lot of people learned I. learned but I almost didn't survive it. it to to go through that and I had no I. had no bank account I had no money the.

the money I was getting was from Comedy. Club cash and I had just gotten to the. clubs in New York City and I decided I'm. not I'm not going here's my papers to. get in I'm not doing it not doing it I. [ __ ] performed outside during those. shows I was performing for free outside. outside of comedy clubs and then once. the vaccine they said we need your. papers and I just said I can't do it. said okay take care wow and and to so. how long did you go from that to not.

doing standup how many how many months. did you not do standup well I started. just doing videos in my living room I. lost my [ __ ] mind that's the thing is. I I and when I tour a lot of my fans you. know um went through a similar thing and. so when I meet them after it's it's um. it's it's painful cuz everybody tells me. the story I'm a firefighter I lost my. job I'm a nurse I lost my job yeah I. lost my family I was isolated my my just. met a guy his daughter killed herself.

because she couldn't um practice her. Sports she was locked in her bedroom. it's like the [ __ ] damage that was. done and to be able to stay steady. during that and go all right I'm going. to go through this with now without any. friends and being labeled this far-right. crazy person for just saying no thanks. to the shot yeah it it you can't believe. you know what that does to you. and so I just feel I feel so I feel so. much for these people that did it and.

who who stuck up to it yeah I do too and. I also feel for the people that got. suckered into taking it and now they. have like serious consequences serious. health problems you know I was ready to. get vaccinated the UFC had allocated a. bunch of vaccines for their employees. this because they were doing shows. during the pandemic we did shows in the. height of the pandemic with no crowds so. the UFC has this place called the Apex. Center and the Apex Center is a small. Arena that the UFC built and they built. it to do like the Dana White Tuesday.

night Contender series and a bunch of. different other fights that they filmed. there and so we went there um and they. said we've got the vaccine so you can. get vaccinated uh we we saved one for. you if you want to get it I said okay. great a lot of the UFC employees got it. was the Johnson and Johnson vaccine and. so I called up the doctor hey uh can I. get it today it was like the day of the. fights he said I can't do it today you. got you have to come to the clinic can. you come on Monday. and I said I can't come on Monday um I I. got to go back Sunday I said but I'll be.

back in two weeks for the next fights. we'll do it then in the time that I left. the the vaccine got pulled for blood. clots and I knew two people that had. Strokes one guy that I met and another. guy who's a friend of a guy that I met. and they they told me that they had. Strokes like within five days of getting. vaccinated and I was like wait what and. then they were saying I was reading the. news story about it they're pull they're. pulling it because of blood clots. remember these guys had got head and I'm.

like holy [ __ ] and I think I talk to the. UFC I go hey man I don't want to take. that and you know they one of the guys. that I talked to over there was like I. agree with you like you know I took it I. don't know I think I'm I feel okay but I. know a guy I know a guy everybody knew a. guy that got [ __ ] up everybody knew. somebody who got [ __ ] up by it but it. was like all of a sudden the genie had. come out of the bottle because before. that I was in I was I was not in any way. shape or form antiva and in fact but it.

doesn't make you antia for not W get one. my point is in fact I was at a I I was. having a conversation with uh one of the. scientists that I talked to about this. and I was like maybe this would be good. to get people that are these crazy. people that are antivaccine to like wake. up and recognize the importance of these. things this is my mindset back then and. so when that happened I had decided like. I'm not taking a chance with this thing. like this is too weird and then I knew. another guy who had some sort of a heart.

problem from the madna one allegedly and. then it just got it just started getting. weirder and weirder and then when a. couple of my friends got Co one of the. things that happened is my whole family. got Co and I was like well I I should. probably just get it and I was like if I. get I was getting tested every day. because we were doing the podcast yeah. so the way we would do the podcast to. keep everybody safe is all the employees. got tested tested security got tested I. got tested everybody got tested and a. couple of times we had to cancel shows.

because someone someone tested positive. and then we all everybody had to keep. getting tested we were very diligent. about it but my whole family got it my. kids got it and they were fine like they. skated through it like one day two days. they felt great like this was early. early days like no vaccine no one knew. what the [ __ ] the treatment was um my. wife got it she took Ivermectin because. they were actually prescribing it back. then and her doctor prescribed it back. then this is the early early days yeah I. didn't get it but I did feel not good.

but I was in the house man I hugged the. kids and they were like you're going to. get it I'm like I'm not going to get it. I was like it was a we were joking. around cuz like they weren't even that. sick and my my wife got it worse than. them for sure but I didn't get it and I. kept working out I was working out and. uh I remember one day I worked out and I. didn't feel good I was like man I feel. [ __ ] weak and I was like I'm just. going to do. like use like lighter weights and just. go through uh like three series of this.

routine that I do just light and easy. don't push it just just get the blood. flowing a little bit and then the next. day I went back to the gym and I did the. same thing I started working I was like. God I don't [ __ ] feel that good like. I still feel a little off like let's. just do the same thing nice and light. just go through the motions not pushing. anything and then the next day I went in. and I felt [ __ ] great I'm like okay. it's gone whatever it was gone damn I. tested every day never tested positive. for it but my body clearly was fighting.

something like there's something going. on and I because I'm so in tune with it. I recognize that I didn't push I do have. some friends though that are Meads and. they also felt that same thing and they. were doing Jiu-Jitsu and they just kept. training really hard and they got real. sick because if you get sick while. you're broken down from training like if. you have a really hard really hard. workout is the whole thing is it makes. your body stronger because it breaks you. down and then your body has to build.

back up again I got to have you help. help help build a body. here come ass son's been working out we. we can have you come in here I do laps. in my hot tub man that's as much as I do. I don't need much well you should do a. little something you don't have to do. anything rigorous but yeah actually I. heard I heard you say once do 100. push-ups a day and it'll change your. life and it [ __ ] did just I couldn't. do you know 50 now I can do 100 no. problem yeah that whole everything it's.

like you got to be able you got to do. what you're willing to do you got to. have some activity yeah your body needs. activity you you your body the so the my. my point is if you break yourself down. from really hard workouts you will get. [ __ ] sick sick like the sickest I've. ever been is when I got sick because I. was working out really hard because when. that happens then it hits you and you. just [ __ ] get wrecked and I knew a. bunch of people that did that but just. got to be smart yeah and so like a lot.

of tough guys are not smart because. they're just too tough they're too tough. and they they make these decisions like. I'll just [ __ ] power through our ape. brain our man cave brain you know it it. uh takes over it does but that's also. what makes you successful that stupid. part of your brain that can just power. through things that's what makes you get. up in the morning that's what gives you. discipline yeah but that also can [ __ ]. you up can [ __ ] you up yeah it can f you. have to know you have to be the general. of the army yeah you have to understand.

what's going on you can't always just be. the soldier sometimes you have to be. strategic about it like no no no hold is. not the time to attack well you need. people you TR you really trust who can. tell you I mean I I the weekend that I. just filmed I've stayed up for three. days straight to finish editing it so. I've never done that and I remember. doing it going this is I don't know if. this is really stupid or really smart. but Biden can die any day and half of. your set is about Biden the wind could. take him out man and so I just did three.

days you know couple hours of sleep. that's hilarious that it's like a race. to see if I was supposed to film it in. in um end of August in Chicago and I go. no if he dies this is useless this three. years of honing these [ __ ] jokes. in and um that's such a crazy mindset I. got to get it out before the president. dies I got to beat his funeral oh my god. do you think he do you think that. they're gonna put in Gavin. Nome oh that's what I think God I keep.

thinking like every day I'm waiting. waiting for the big announcement in the. news he is so repulsive man he's. repulsive but he knows how to talk. that's all know how and he's attractive. God damn it he's got got nice hair hot. privilege yeah he's he's a smooth. gaslighter and uh he's got that serial. killer face though super good at running. a state into the ground I he talks like. he's rapping you know he like yeah we're. gonna shut down the yeah well scares me. it's very practiced he's he's a.

performer you know but that's what half. this country wants they want someone. who's just going to make them feel good. enough to go to work every day sure. while as their rights get eroded yeah. slowly but surely Cala Harris that would. be interesting even to have her for one. day as president bro they've been hiding. that lady that would be interesting no. no no no don't that's when Russ's going. to attack you know I got kicked out of a. comedy club for doing an impression of. her no yeah they said it it's no longer. okay for a straight white guy to do an.

impression of a [ __ ] hyena wow yeah. what was uh the club uh it was like a. makeshift thing during. Co it was this outdoor thing and I got. thrown out they go you're racist I was. like making fun of her and I got thrown. to the curb wow cuz I couldn't do the. club so I was unvaccinated I hate saying. unvaccinated that makes it sound like. the vaccine it's like being I'm I I. didn't get circumcised I don't like. being called uncircumcised right yeah so.

you can't un something that just is. right the dick and then the chop the. chop dick I hate that it is weird got to. be careful with the way we phrase you're. unvaxxed it's like go [ __ ] it I'm just a. human with blood regular blood and you. got fouchy juice Trump fouchy juice. floating around your body warp speed. juice inside of you son orp speed and so. did the the joke go over well did it get. a good laugh I was just kind of talking. about race and stuff and you're a racist. and slow the manager came and physically.

threw me into the curb and I just. remember what the what is going on when. I started comedy you know I started. around the time of like samarel and Mark. Norman and I started two years after. them and we were still doing open mics. you'd see Mark Norman on The Tonight. Show and then back at the club hey hey. comedy all right you're gay I'm fat. praise Allah. hey and we would say the crazy as [ __ ]. and it made you good and then suddenly. it was like you can't say this you can't.

say that you can't say that and it's all. made up it's all made up it all happened. during the Obama Administration it was a. wave of it and like Dave Smith is. tracked it it's really interesting to. describe it yeah he describes like when. the the phrases all the different. catchphrases that all of it around 2012. it's like this this big ramp up of all. these things racism all these idea. transphobia all this big ramp up of all. these issues happened around.

2012 I don't I'm I'm transphobic but. that just means because I'm I'm afraid. of them Joe I've gone out with two by. accident yeah yeah I used to do online. dating and you show you know they they. would have good angles the surgery's. getting good too and if they're Asian. game over game over so I was on a date. with a it was a it was a black woman it. turned out to be a a. man and I had a complete mental.

breakdown I ran in the bathroom I called. my friend I go I'm out with a dude and. and he wants to [ __ ] me he wants to take. me home Jesus yeah yeah that happened. twice so did they explain to you that. they had a dick no no no if you're. dealing with someone who has a me I'm. not saying all people that I I don't. even think trans is it's all [ __ ]. just makes you have a seizure but but no. they don't a lot of don't tell you well. a lot of them feel like you don't have. to tell I was actually watching a.

podcast where a comic was arguing that. you shouldn't have to tell someone that. you're trans if you're dating them even. if you're having sex with them H well. you're going to find out a comic was. arguing that when their [ __ ] vagina. and they were doing it in just this woke. compliant way it wasn't like they had a. wellth thought out point it was just. like yeah why should you have have to. tell people like what the [ __ ] are you. talking about what are you talking about. you should tell people if you have bad.

credit you should tell people if you're. going to get involved in a romantic. relationship with someone and you you. owe the government $100,000 in taxes you. should have to [ __ ] tell people that. like I might be in trouble I might have. to run to Costa Rica yeah you should. have to tell people a lot of things yeah. well it's all that that's the new way. it's it's just this compliance for all. this new [ __ ] that didn't exist a couple. years ago well it's the thing is that. they want to say that trans women are. women so why should they have to tell. you I think it's transphobic to call.

somebody trans because if they're an. actual woman they're just a woman so why. you calling them trans you can't. transition if you were born a woman and. you feel like a woman you really want to. support people like this trans shouldn't. be on the [ __ ] table that's a woman. with a dick though with the dick yeah so. that's how you say transwoman the woman. with a dick just so to let everybody. know just say woman with a dick mhm Dick. Person yeah a dick holding person dick. holding person for now they might get.

rid of the dick oh man I wonder what. that's that's the thing I I wonder if. I've ever no way. no. yeah uh yeah they should show the. surgery you want a kids to get involved. they should show the surgery of taking. your forearm skin and building a penis W. it's hard enough having god-given penis. Imagine One built by uh a bunch of like. arteries and that one's scary but that. one doesn't take away your vagina the. the scary one is the penis to a vagina.

or they take it off they they fold it in. really make an opening in your body and. then you have to keep it dilated all the. time so you have to shove something up. there to make sure it doesn't close up. like a [ __ ]. earpiercing yo man yo one day they're. going to be able to do gene therapy and. they're going to be able to literally. transform someone into a woman that's. not up that's not off the table they're. going to be able to do that and you know. some animals can do that that's one of.

the funniest things that Alex Jones got. called out for the turn of the frogs gay. but that's a real thing aine it's uh. it's pesticide or an. herbicide um it they they got it in with. these frogs and half of the frogs change. their. gender like here it is at is a herbicide. an endocrine disruptor that can harm the. sexual development of frogs by altering.

their hormone Cycles exposure to asine a. concentrations as low as 0.1 parts per. billion can cause gonadal malformations. including hermaphrodites and males with. multiple testes atrazine can also. chemically castrate male frogs turning. them into females or. demasculate they're doing it to men you. seriously I walk around and you see. these couples where the female looks. like the guy and the the man looks more.

feminine men are just being emasculated. if they allow it if they but but a lot. of them are a lot of them allow it it's. I I was one of those guys because when. when the whole with the when the options. are all of these women when this is the. options I mean women create the sexual. Marketplace and Men kind of dictate. their behavi imagine if you and I were. left to our own devices with no kind of. woman to kind of keep you in check so. men have been adapting that's where. Vikings came from yeah that's where.

Pirates came from yeah you leave men. alone and not have a bunch of women. around going hey slow the [ __ ] down slow. down then you have battle. axes boats full of savages storming. Villages yeah the capital yeah and so. that's the over correction that's the. the overcorrection is you get these like. incredibly feminized men and one of the. way that happens is jobs right so you. have a job and you are in this social. structure for eight hours a day that is.

very unnatural and weird and most. companies have Dei scores and most. companies have all these different. requirements and they're openly allowed. to discriminate against especially. heterosexual white men I me know one or. two things about that yeah there was a a. thing that Elon tweeted. I think today or yesterday in response. to one of these things at Disney where.

one of the guys at Disney like openly. said I would never hire a straight white. man like what I have that on tape you. know I have a lawsuit well that's why. I'm bring this yeah I mean so you and I. talked about it in the green room and. tell your story like tell what happened. and how this all this shitfest yeah yeah. it's quite it's quite a long story I. mean it I started when I started comedy. and started I've been doing it 20 years. so I've been I've been on TV TV shows.

guest stars co-stars you never really. heard you know there's too many white. guys or you know it's getting a little. too white and then I remember like at. comedy clubs you just start to hear. people say you know there's too many. white guys too many [ __ ] white guys. and then it it became um it became quite. popular to just start to say there's too. many of you guys so what do you do we. got to get rid of them you know um the. first time it happened to me I was uh.

invited to do a podcast it's a woman she. was a lesbian she wanted me to come on. and tell the story of being raised by. gay men she goes I think this will be. good to bridge our two fan bases so. people can hear it from a straight guy's. point of view of what it's like to kind. of grow up in in around you know I grew. up in gay bars and piano bars and drag. shows and I'm kind of the long-term. study for what it does to you it [ __ ]. you up you know I started to think maybe.

I'm gay maybe I'm you know I TR in. college actually I was going home to. visit my family I tried kissing a guy. just cuz I felt like I needed to fit in. this [ __ ] really it really how that go. oh he was like get the [ __ ] away from me. I remember I was in the car and just. going like [ __ ] maybe I'm gay my dad's. gay I got a a gay brother one of my. dad's Brothers gay I think my. grandfather it's you know shit's genetic. it's genetic and I just I I lean goes.

get the [ __ ] away from me cuz I just. wanted to fit in I wanted something to. talk about at Thanksgiving dinner right. I wanted to be the gay you know yeah and. so um peer pressure peer pressure this. this girl invited me on to talk about. this and she was a friend she texts me. and she goes I think this was after the. George Floyd thing maybe and she goes. um I can't have a straight white guy on. anymore and I remember just going like. what the [ __ ] you can't have me on just. cuz I my skin color what changed it was.

the during the BLM stuff that stuff. really ramped up it became kind of I. think celebratory to go [ __ ] white. people [ __ ] white women white you. know um right I think it became. normalized a little way too any amount. is too much but it became celebrated in. a way and so that happened and then it. happened another podcast and then I was. uh I had an acting agent. who uh when whenever I would do stand I. used to host Mark Norman show hot soup.

and all the agents would come and every. you know every couple months someone go. why aren't you on SNL we got to get you. in Holly why aren't and I'd go well sure. but sign me send you need. auditions and so this guy saw him and he. brought me in it was the biggest agency. at the time Abrams it was called and um. I'm waiting around going what's going on. no auditions is SNL coming to to check. me out and he and he emails and he goes. he's too tough out there for white guys. he kind of was like we're done here the.

next day fires me removes me right not. the next day it was soon after removed. me from the roster I got an. email some more time went by and then. another manager scouted me brought me in. it's called AGI entertainment I think. and um he goes dude you're you're a. killer he goes you got an acting resume. he goes we're going to get you on Curb. Your Enthusiasm you know and I was like. okay maybe this is finally somebody. who's got the balls to to fight this. [ __ ] months go by he calls me and he.

goes um we hit a snag he. said we we don't we can't have any more. white guys or we're not hiring white. guys we're not representing white guys. and I and I just was like what the [ __ ]. is going on how could you say that and I. go is it company policy and he goes yeah. so halfway through the conversation I. take my phone out cuz this happened so. many times I was literally I was losing.

my [ __ ] mind my therapist goes dude. you got to start recording this you have. to record this stuff because it was. happening every month I got a commercial. campaign they go you've been replaced. with the black woman he goes you're the. you're the guy for the job it was like a. hosting thing where you got to do. Impressions I was perfect for it they. replaced me so I started you know being. prepared and I recorded it and I got it. on tape and I just what did you get on. tape what did you I got him I got him. literally saying we will not represent.

white men and its company policy he said. it in plain it's not it couldn't be any. more clear wow he said we Cann not work. with you just cuz your skin color and. where were you when you recorded this. were you in New York yeah I was in New. York so you're allow you're allowed to. do it yeah yeah I didn't even know that. do you have to tell them that you're. recording no no wow no I was sitting at. my PO did like a little CU I couldn't. work because of the vaccine stuff so I. was just locked in my room for two years. making Instagram videos I mean I I went.

from zero to a million over a million. followers just from I was doing fouchy. every day doing cameos going on the. radio as fouchy is wow and uh it was. just bizarre and and but it dude it it. it [ __ ] me up. because it was so it's so confusing to. have someone go you are the man for the. job I had a great resume I mean I was I. was being considered for big Hollywood. roles I was brought in for a Sneaky Pete. Giovani risi I was up for that role and.

uh making my own. films um and uh yeah it [ __ ] me up I I. got really depressed I lost my mind and. so when you recorded this on tape what. happened after you recorded it on tape. after that I was too afraid cuz when I. would tell people about this they would. go well whatever white guys have had it. good you I'm going I just [ __ ] got. here but isn't that one of the things. that someone said to you like why guys. have had a good run oh people say it to.

me all the time but wasn't wasn't that. one of the things that one of the agents. had said to you ah Pro I mean I don't. know if an agent said that but but you. were telling me that someone said it to. you comedy yeah comedy clubs a lot of. lot not necessarily clubs but like the. the independent run shows there would be. no there would be like no white people. allowed shows what yeah oh yeah oh yeah. yeah I was that a club and uh I did a. spot guy goes you going on the next show. and I go yeah he goes I didn't know you. were in the LGBT plus2 rqr community and.

I go what he goes yeah it's only no. straight people allowed I was like what. the. [ __ ] what the [ __ ] is going. on and uh so I I after that I waited a. while um I talked to my the I I just. didn't know what to do because because I. didn't want that to become a force of. its own I wanted to to to. have my talent lead the way which it had. always been doing and it's tough to have.

people call you say you're oh you're. you're just being a victim or whatever. and it's like yes sometimes you're a. victim and you have to fight it to heal. from it and to move on from it and so I. thought if I don't fight this I'm going. to kill myself because it was so it's so. humiliating to have someone go your skin. color is just it's just not the time for. it and so I I just thought I'm going to. go for it and I I just put it on. Instagram I said hey I just got turned. down for being white any attorneys out. there and one guy reached out and goes.

I'm a discrimination attorney he goes. this is one of the most clear acts of. discrimination I've ever seen he said. it's so. clearcut and um so that was a couple. years ago so it's an ongoing thing these. things take a long time but um and so. what are you you're suing for. discrimination is that what you're suing. for like yeah yeah yeah every every race. is protected under the Civil you know. civil rights laws there's no isn't that. crazy though that they would think.

they're so encaptured by this [ __ ]. mind virus that they would think it's. okay to be racist to white people not. only okay but like C celebratory yeah. you know wild yeah and I don't let. people [ __ ] do that to me people. think I'm just this nice little I'm a. [ __ ] animal when you grow up in a. crazy environment and you survive it man. it's like [ __ ] come at me and I I. just said I'm going to it's a hill I'll. die on I don't care I was like this is. war we are in a full-blown culture war.

and uh and I'll I would give up. everything for it. because I owe also owe it to you know. people that can't fight for themselves I. had this 10-year period where this [ __ ]. wasn't going on I built up my acting. chops my comedy chops with nobody saying. you can't do that you can't say that and. so I had this kind of you know know this. um this energy I go I I have to no one's. going to do it for you you know I saw. Jordan Peterson you know fight for that.

bill c16 thing yeah and I go holy [ __ ]. watching if if it's worth watching uh. the Congressional Hearing in Canada. where he's explaining you can't compel. speech you can't tell somebody you have. to say my pronouns or you go to jail. he's like this is going to get out of. [ __ ] control everything he said came. true yeah I had him on when in the. beginning of that stuff and I remember. people saying to me like why do you care. about what happens these obscure moments.

that happen in these universities and I. had Brett Weinstein on after the. Evergreen College thing same kind of. thing and I was saying like do you don't. know these people are going to graduate. do do you understand what this is the. future like these attitudes that are. being in these kids are being. indoctrinated into these mindsets. they're going to expand and they're. going to be involved in the workplace. and they're going to be involved in. politics and culture like this mind. virus is going to go everywhere and you.

got to say what it is you got to you got. to call it out when you see it this is. kind of kind of crazy and obviously all. these years later I mean this was like. 2016 I guess yeah so here we are you. know well he's part of the reason I. pursu this Jordan because I just he he's. like you have to tell the truth that's. it tell the truth or tell the truth or. we at least don't lie you know it's like. it's like you can't bloody compel my. speech you know that's pretty good clean. your damn room you know it's like finger. a cat rescue your father from The Bell.

it's like well you know it's like you. know how you develop that one that's a. good one you know why because I was in a. little emasculated little he him living. in New York and I would sit in my room. and watch his lectures with my [ __ ]. head would explode I go holy this is all. the [ __ ] that I think and feel but I. haven't been able to articulate he's a. brilliant guy and my life that my life. changed forever once I heard him say. that tell the truth at least don't lie. and my life has.

changed it that video of him with Kathy. Newman have you seen that that's amazing. I watch that every week yeah it's. amazing it's a master class in how. people will try to bend your work and he. does not Bend he be like well you know. women need to like contend in the. workplace so what you're saying is women. should just be raped in the break room. like it's like no it's like I'm not. saying that it's a funny conversation. because it's all that gotcha [ __ ] gone. wrong because you're doing it with a. skilled person a skilled linguist and.

someone who really understands what he's. saying and has a deep understanding of. the history of marxist and leninist. philosophy and what what it leads to. what communism and socialism actually. leads to what you're actually saying is. you by IM by forcing people to comply. there's only one way you force people to. comply and that's violence that is the. only way ultimately it will we're going. to put you in jail what happens if I. resist we're going to kill you it gets. to that it gets to violence we're going. to grab you we're going to hunt you down. we're going to put you in a cage and.

then we're going to force everybody else. to comply as well and this is what he's. saying it's like you cannot go down this. path if you do not know where it leads. to you can't think you're being virtuous. by standing up for the disenfranchise. and imposing this especially the gender. pronoun thing which at that point in. time there was 78 different recognized. gender pronouns yeah like who knows how. many there are now like now it's nuts. thousands it's just like people just. make things up and that's what's the fun. thing about Tik Tok China is so clever.

oh my God there's so good with Tik Tok. is so good it's so they're so smart what. they did and then to show you these. outrageous people over and over again. with fake eyelashes reading stories to. kids just freaking everybody out with a. bunch of different you know I'm two. spirit and I'm this and that and I'm. trans masculine with like [ __ ] the. whole thing is just nuts and then. shutting down free speech I mean I've. been I've been banned for shut down for. three years they froze my I was going.

all my pmic [ __ ] oh they on Tik Tok they. they banned you what' you do they well. they don't have to tell besides besides. being white I was texting my white they. don't have to tell you that's part of. when you sign up right especially Tik. Tok and it's commun it's a communist. Chinese we are let it's an act of War. living in our pocket I I can't believe. it it's the one I don't use I was. telling you I changed my uh name to. queer disabled comedian and suddenly. they let me I started getting add offers.

from Tik Tok they just like they and. then when I did the the the bit about. where I come out on stage as gay that. was the first video that they let kind. of through is it because the algorithm. let it through probably did it get. reviewed eventually yeah it just got uh. removed again I just posted it again cuz. I'm like [ __ ] you so I keep posting. these things over and over you just. posted under different names yeah yeah. my uh youngest daughter is obsessed with. the vegan teacher the vegan teachers.

this crazy lady on Tik Tok that's like. this crazy vegan lady and she keeps. getting banned and so they keep bringing. her she keeps making up new accounts and. coming. back so they that's what I do on stage I. keep coming up with new identities to. see what I can get away with what is. this oh this is his uh yeah that's been. frozen for three years oh really wow. yeah and look at the first video like. that's how many views all of my videos. used to get 3.1 million yeah I was.

blowing up like I was getting like 10. 20,000 followers a day and then uh. wow wow and that's the difference. between a comic selling out a theater. and half filling a club yeah you know. that type of exposure oh for sure. especially comic like you is actually. very funny when you have these uh. messages that come and say that your. account's being frozen they don't give. you any reason do they say. non-compliance or Community standards. they say disinformation hateful Behavior.

what did they say well each one is. different you know I mean like each. video but when they pulled your account. what did they say oh yeah hateful. Behavior hate my my Instagram got pulled. too no oh bro that's when I lost it when. did that was the only it's back now. right it's back I by the grace of God I. met somebody outside the comedy seller. and she goes can I follow you on. Instagram I said no like they just they. just banned my account and that was the. only way I was making money was selling. tickets from my Instagram videos and.

going on the road and this girl said I. she goes I just quit working there and. and uh I said can they just turn you off. and on she goes yeah I go can you have. my account turned back on she goes. absolutely she G I gave her my. information she sent it to somebody in. Instagram they just flipped the SW. switch back on the next day I was. back so is it just completely subjective. based on what employee decides that. you're offensive yes they have a whole. [ __ ] department and if they go well.

they got two complaints or whatever he's. being transphobic or race whatever the. [ __ ] [ __ ] is going on at the time. and that you can't have that with art no. especially not comedy especially not. comedy I mean the whole idea is to push. limits and the whole idea is to like. walk that crazy line and say wild [ __ ]. for fun it's just for fun these aren't. like you can't put them in the same. categories as hate speech because no. one's trying to be hateful they're just.

trying to get laughs and they're getting. laughs often times by saying something. that the audience knows they don't mean. they're saying it because it's funny not. because it's true not because they want. you to think it's true because it's a. ridiculous thing to say and it's a funny. thing to say and when you hear the. audience laugh that means it worked it. was effective it doesn't mean you can. then put that in print and say that this. is an anti- lb gtq T who gets to decide. a i to who gets to decide it's like be.

like pointing to a random person in the. crowd at the mothership going you get to. pick what's hateful and what's not and. what comedians get but also like to have. random people working at Instagram that. get to get to decide that or Tik Tok. they just get to decide that it's so. crazy and you know we know well thank. God for Elon Musk and and Twitter and X. now whatever I'm never calling it X I. hate that well porn pops every you it's. kind of crazy that they have porn on it. but that was always no but I mean X all. every porn site is like XXX so you you.

type it in and usually a a porn site. pops up well that's maybe your browsing. history that's I'm talking about a. friend of mine um but at least on that. site you don't have to worry about that. [ __ ] you could you can get wild you. could do whatever the [ __ ] you want. there I got banned the day or week he uh. actually I had his attorney reach out to. him personally because I was banned. right before he started. and and and I go oh elon's taking over. I'm they're going to give me my account. back and you know it just didn't happen.

and I I ran I was doing a a RFK. fundraiser I was doing standup with RFK. Jr and his attor elon's attorney was. there oh wow and he and she texted him. or something like okay pretty cool we'll. turn it back on that's you know so it's. pretty funny we'll get we get it going. again so well there's no way he could. have known I mean there was so no. there's so many I contacted him about a. bunch of people that got had gotten. unfairly banned including Megan Murphy. who got unfairly banned for saying that.

a man is never a Woman They banned her. forever well good but now she's racist. but she's a feminist that's was so crazy. she was just arguing that trans men or. trans women are invading women's spaces. and imposing masculine behavior and. masculine character they're acting like. men and taking over women's spaces well. that was was the actually the only way. to get a movie roll for me I was in that. daily wire um lady Ballers and uh I. thought how funny that I get kind of.

cancelled for being a white guy and now. the first role actually no I was in the. the Western with Gina. chono oh the one with cowboy yeah Cowboy. Shone I had to kick him in the [ __ ]. nuts did you I to beat the [ __ ] out of. him that's hilarious that must have been. terrifying oh oh we fought every day. yeah he almost killed me that was been. terrifying scene where fake hit that guy. no not fake he goes [ __ ] get me in. the nuts get and he goes so he had me. actually kick him in the nuts and I you. have a cup on no and I was like dude if.

you're [ __ ] with me and I do this and. you kill me this is not and he's like. [ __ ] and I ran and kicked him in the. nuts we had to do it like five times oh. my God that guy is an animal oh he's a. Savage he would be like let's just. improvise the the the fight scenes I'm. like I'm a Lego next to you. dude yeah he's too. wild he's Wild. and Gina man she is a monster I mean the. stuff she had to do in that film every. day get [ __ ] killed and raped and.

beat up and she that they found me on. Instagram wow I was in my on my couch. depressed and I got a a I got a a DM do. you want to interview or audition for. the new Gina Coran movie that's great. and she just she's suing Disney right. now yeah I think she's she should win I. hope so I mean what she did was to I. mean the whole thing is just so. everyone's so crazy the everybody gets. so nuts and it happens so fast it's a a.

a wild ride from like. 2017 on it's like once Trump got into. office it was like all the women's. marches remember those yeah it's where I. got [ __ ] yeah but those were like. everybody there were women was just. women yeah it wasn't like what's a woman. no it's like there they are no women are. Marching [ __ ] on no a couple years this. Mass wave of confusion just goes through.

the culture and everybody's at each. other's throats on social media I. never um like interact on social media I. just don't do it you can't I don't think. it's good for you you can't yeah I think. I've taken the bait a couple times I. mean you know it's if you're just a. regular person and then suddenly start. blowing up or whatever and people are. calling you all the worst possible names. in the world like it's a little alarming. at first and you want to defend yourself. but now I mean you can't I think if you.

wanted to really engage people on actual. ideas you'd have to do it anonymously I. think if you really want to like on if. you want to have honest discussions with. with people publicly about stuff you're. really better off doing it anonymously. because if you did it anonymously and I. don't have any desire to do this either. but if you do it anonymously at least. you could there's no personal attacks no. one knows who you are no one knows. anything about you you can just talk. about this issue you know whatever the. issue is like AI whatever it is whatever. it is is people are debating online you.

could have discussions about it you know. like like people do on like 4chan or. something like that or Reddit like you. have a a [ __ ] crazy fake screen name. no one has to know who you are and you. can talk about things but if you're a. public person like you are and you're go. like I I see people arguing with people. back and forth about the quality of. their work musicians arguing with fans. or trolls about whether or not their. last album was good I'm like what are. you doing man you are inviting mental. illness into your home you got to.

disconnect disconnect disconnect and. every most people are not disconnected. because it is the one form of conflict. that they can engage in that doesn't. really have consequences unless you say. something really crazy and then it goes. public but that's pretty rare most. people are just attacking people like. randomly getting out their aggression. just attacking people and engaging in. arguments online it's like my God it's. great distraction though it's to to make. it in our industry it takes 100% of your.

time and effort yeah I mean I'm in I'm. in almost 20 years to the point where I. can now like not worry about uh feeding. myself well you came to my attention. because of the videos that's what I. found out about you uh and then comics. comics will all have very high Praise of. you so that's a nice thing to know it's. a nice thing to know and so hey hey. comedy I remember that was actually Mark. Norman laughing at your jokes when you. were new was like the first Tonight Show. oh yeah man and he would just go.

ha so all the comics that became uh the. way to let somebody know you were good. everyone would do the Mark Norman laugh. so nobody would actually give a genuine. laugh but if you're. hey ha you're like all right right. someone says that's a good one yeah. because a lot of times when someone has. a really funny joke I'm always like Ah. that's good that's good you know that's. the same thing yeah and you know what I. did actually because I was so afraid to. uh say what I actually thought I started. doing impressions cuz I would do my joke.

my I would get my real thoughts out. through my Impressions and people would. link it to them so like I'd be talking. about feminism doing bill bur like right. I went out with this girl last night. this [ __ ] [ __ ] right she like put. toxic masculine right it's [ __ ]. brutal right I got to listen to that. [ __ ] on a [ __ ] Monday and everybody. would erupt and I'd go oh my God they. think that was Bill bur thought that was. me right and so my whole act became you. know just doing Trump just all sorts of. stuff and I'm I'm pulling back from that.

a little now that I have some balls I've. grown some balls but it's still a fun. way to do it it's still a fun way to do. it yeah it's a fun it's it's a nice. little way that you can sneak things in. you know yeah dud do D you you're pretty. good at them I heard you Impressions I I. have a limited range the ones that I do. I can do good but I have a limited range. have you ever done uh have you ever done. them on stage yeah I used to do a Mike. Tyson impression cuz Mike Tyson yelled. at some guy in the audience that he. would [ __ ] him till till he loved him.

and I was like do you have any idea how. long that would. take and he would have to decide he. would have to decide if you love me oh. yeah I remember that I could do Tyson I. could do a few different people it's so. funny when people say it's cheap or. stupid I go you just did an impression. of your mom or the mailman everybody's. doing you know [ __ ] those people yeah. funny it's funny it's funny it's funny. if it's good it's good if it's not good. you won't laugh that's it end of story. in this later yeah thanks anybody who. says it's cheap it's like there's cheap.

stuff we all know cheap stuff but cheap. stuff's not Impressions some great. people do great impressions and it's. it's part of the fun of watching them on. stage like when Shane does Trump you. know it's like it's so good it's so. crazy good or he does Conor McGregor. it's like I haven't heard Conor McGregor. yeah he does does Conor McGregor in. Roadhouse it's very funny but it's just. it's fun and the crowd loves it and. you're there to please the crowd I one. of the crowd I love it yeah you know.

this idea this this it's all perpetrated. by artists who can't either can't do the. Impressions or are under this false idea. that there's like a way that you're. supposed to do comedy like there was an. ALT way that you're supposed to do. comedy where you weren't supposed to try. hard oh god there was a lot of that and. if you acted things out or you have too. much energy they didn't like you like. you were supposed to not try you're. supposed to just stand there and be kind. of monoton is yeah that's why I didn't. really I I don't really hang out with. comedians or I am now a little bit cuz.

it's a little more comfortable at the. mothership but I didn't like those. things getting in my head and then. thinking are these Comics judging me in. the back or they probably are who cares. they are all the ones who do suck but. when you're new when you're fresh and. you're you're malleable you know you. need to you need to grow like a. foundation oh a lot of people get sucked. down that road they get sucked down that. road in life and not just in com but in. pretty much every world every Community. you get sucked into the ideas of the.

peers you want to fit in you want to be. one you got to lift the top remember oh. hop the top it's like the ideas of your. peers you get sucked into this idea that. this is the way I'm supposed to think. and behave this is the way I'm supposed. to perform my art this is supposed the. way I'm like when I first started out. everybody had to be clean you had to be. a clean comedian cuz when I started out. was the'80s the lady I was started in '. 88 and that was the time where everybody. wanted to get on The Tonight Show and. everybody wanted to get a sitcom so you. developed this like squeaky clean.

television friendly act and if you. didn't have a squeaky clean television. friendly act oh this [ __ ] idiot he's. just going to do the road you're just. going to be a road act damn and that's. what I was I barely got work in town did. you do Carson or anything no no I um I. never did any of those talk shows until. I became a guest because I was on a tele. show fear or something like that I just. sat down and talked to like conri like. that kind of thing but I didn't do stand. up on it first of all cuz I didn't like.

that kind of standup I didn't like five. minutes that that that drove me nuts I. had done a couple of things like I did. the MTV half hour Comedy Hour and a. couple of those other TV type shows but. that wasn't I wanted to be a club comic. that's all I wanted to do I wanted to be. a professional Club comic and I remember. everybody saying you're never going to. get work you're never going to get work. and part of me was like I don't I mean I. remember had this conversation once with. this comic and he was the host of open. mic night and he said listen you got to. change your actor you're never going to.

work and he was a professional and he. was like doing okay he was pretty good. like a professional like a local middle. act type guy that had like a competent. 20 minutes it was not bad wasn't good. but back then I thought it was really. good CU I was 21 I actually saw him live. before I ever got paid to do comedy I. went to see Dom iera and he was one of. the opening acts and when he told me. that he was like you're never going to. get any work you got to stop swearing. you and I go but all my favorite. comedians are like Andrew Dice Clay goes.

you're not Dice Clay yeah I go I was. like okay but at one point in time Dice. Clay might he's like look you don't have. to listen but you're not going to have a. career and you're like [ __ ] stormed. away left you feeling like [ __ ] and then. four or five years later I came back to. the club headlining cuz I was on uh news. radio and the place was sold out and and. uh he said uh what do you want me to say. I go tell them you gave me the worst. advice that anybody ever gave me and. then tell them all the TV credits that I.

have that you don't. have and he just like like shook his. head a little bit and just walked away. cuz he knew it was right cuz he was. still the same guy he was still trapped. he was still a shitty mediocre you. barely funny act that was pass under the. best conditions Possible only but like. you would never repeat his jokes at a. party said it was ever fun and I went up. and killed and it was it was so glor it. was fun and I oh what a sweet little. dirty and but this like it was like a.

lot of the comedians back then like the. or or established guys were actually. angry that I had succeeded with a dirty. act because I was on television like I. remember one of them saying I can't. believe they gave him a job with [ __ ]. Disney Disney hired him cuz Disney was. where I got my first development deal. and they're like [ __ ] Disney have. they ever seen his [ __ ] jokes like. Disney and. I was like well that shit's on Disney. now it's come full circle it's where. kids are learning but back then it was.

everybody wanted to be clean and so. there was a lot of peer pressure so I. tried I tried I tried to like conform my. ACT I tried to like write like material. that was not me can't do it you know I. was a 21-year-old animal who was a. kickboxer that's all I was doing I was. my whole childhood from 15 to 21 was me. traveling around the country trying to. kick people unconscious and then all of. a sudden I'm in this new environment. where everybody's hyp sensitive and. everybody wants you to be clean and.

everybody wants you to to do these jokes. that to me were just like I want to hear. wild [ __ ] I like wild [ __ ] like I got. into comedy cuz I saw Kennison I got. into comedy cuz I saw I want to do wild. [ __ ] that's what I want to I want things. you're a [ __ ] animal on. stage it's it's like watching a wild. animal but it's just you just letting. your [ __ ] self come out it's just who. I am I mean that's just me being like. what I think is funny like my kind of. Comedy you don't have to like it a lot. of people don't that's okay that's what. I like matter but that's like all music.

man you know like there's people that. don't like The Black Keys I don't. understand them cuz I love them so I. listen to Black key I'm like [ __ ] yeah. and some people are like GH okay watch. it but this is just life but when you're. in an environment where people are. telling you like it's an ALT environment. and all of your peers and all the people. that are so desperately trying to. succeed. because you you've achieved a level of. comfort now so you can look back on it.

because it's not that long ago where you. didn't know if it was going to work out. and that moment when you're starting out. whether it's comedy or anything martial. arts [ __ ] everything I would imagine. when you're endeavoring when you're. you're entering into this like crazy. world of possibilities this might not. work like what are the odds that it were. how many comedians who do an open mic. night ever become a professional. headliner godamn it it's not even one. out of a thousand probably it's a Nutty.

number so if that was your child or a. really good friend you would say oh my. God don't do this like this is not is. not going to work out for you you're. going to be that 40-year-old loser. staying on people's couches with no. future [ __ ] man don't do this so when. you're in that environment like the alt. scene when no one's really quite sure. and then there's a few people that have. made it a little bit and the ones that. kind of set the standards and they. behave that way and everybody else wants. to be like them and they just want to be. liked by everybody else everybody. conforms everybody becomes like this.

same thing it's the that group identity. thing I me which is really why things. are crumbling right now you can't have. it there is no there's no Community any. person that tells me I'm in a community. you're a child if you're Community is. not your close friends and your family. yeah and you say you're in a community. you're a child mhm there isn't there's. no comedy community there're a bunch of. them yeah they're little microcosms of. groups of people yeah but once you have.

so this is our group identity like this. is what white men are this is what black. wom women are it's well one of the nice. things about the club is that when we. hired Adam eot to take over and be the. toal coordinator one of one of the. things that we were real clear because. he was experiencing a lot of pressure in. La like he' get pressure like why don't. you have more women on the lineup why. don't you have more this lineup how come. you have any gay people how come you. know this I said listen man this is. going to be this club is going to be. 100% a meritocracy I do not give a [ __ ].

about any mandates I don't give a [ __ ]. all I care is if you're funny if you're. a funny trans person you're a funny gay. person you're a funny white guy you're a. funny black lady who [ __ ] cares are. you funny and if you're funny you're in. and because of that look how [ __ ]. diverse the lineup is that's what. happens especially with the people. coming up there's all kinds of different. kinds of people from all kinds of. different walks of life with totally. different styles on stage there's so. many different styles and complete.

Freedom complete freedom to try and Adam. is so smart that he'll have these. conversations with these people and. he'll be like I see what you're trying. to do you know just you just got to like. got to hone it in figure it out like I. see you're trying to say it like this. but maybe like there's a way to say it. that like makes the same point it's not. as clunky so valuable that doesn't. happen in New York it's like you're out. if you're not doing what we want and you.

don't know what they want because it. changes so well it's good for us it's. good for us it's like helping recruiting. tremendously when I met Adam I I was. like in shock I go I this is so foreign. to me a Booker who who's like wants to. work with you and and like and and will. take um a risk in in like invest in your. talent and he was one nor McDonald's. best friends he did a show with Norm he. a guy knows comedy inside and out I've. known Adam for at least 20 years it.

least I knew Adam when he was working at. the Tempe Improv back when I would just. do the road there and I became friends. with him then and then he came to me. when I was banned from The Comedy Store. uh he came to me the impro 2007 I was I. left the comedy store in 2007 over that. Carlos Mania thing oh and so I I told. him I'm like I'm never coming back I'm. like I'm gone you've never gone back no. I did I went back in 2014 okay but one. of the reasons I went back is the guy. that was running it was fired they. caught him stealing money he got fired.

and then Adam egot took over and when. Adam took over Adam came to visit me at. The Improv when I was performing at the. Improv and uh he's like I'd really love. to have you back at the store I'm like. dude I don't know if I could [ __ ] go. back there man I just like I said I was. never going back that the whole thing. was so [ __ ] up he's like you know but. that guy's gone and it's different now. and we're we're trying to bring The. Comedy Store back and so the reason why. I did go back though was because Ari. shafir was feeling a special. there and I had been friends with Ari.

when Ari was a door man I met Ari when. Ari was just starting out he was this. young fresh-faced doorman who just. abandoned religion really recently and. so he was like this young kid and he was. funny and I became friends with him and. then I started taking him on the road. with me after a couple years of him you. know like seeing him perform I gave him. some spots outside of town I took him to. Denver he killed I'm like God damn and. and so I helped you know Ari like I. brought him in front of all these crowds. I gave him like the kind of advice that. I would want someone to give to me. and him performing at The Comedy Store.

having a Comedy Central special and. doing it at The Comedy Store to me was. like I have to be there yeah I have to I. have to see that I have to be there I. have to support him I'm so proud of him. I'm so happy I had to go there so I went. there the day before and I the the day I. went I saw roast battle and I was like. this is amazing it was so vibrant and so.

alive and the place was packed we were. upstairs and I was one of the judges. like you would have a judge like that. gets to judge the roasts and and we had. so much fun and Jeff Ross was hosting it. and it was just the whole thing the. whole thing was just it was. so it was so vibrant I was like this is. like a writing exercise this is like I. mean it's a roast B roast roast battles. are you're picking on someone yes but.

it's really just a writing exercise with. one specific Target that's all it is one. topic you stay on and Brian Moses is an. amazing host of that too he's so good CU. he's so likable he's so fun and he even. makes people hug it out you know like at. the end we're all going to hug like you. know like it's nice he does a great job. of like keeping it peaceful and playful. and then I remember being there for that. and going okay I think I got to come.

back and then the next day Ari did did. his special was amazing I couldn't. believe I was like this is just so crazy. to see him filming a special at The. Comedy Store from knowing him from being. a doorman yeah you know and then here he. is you see people get so good so fast. yeah cuz I only know him as a killer I I. have no concept of Ari or you know any. of those guys when they start yeah I. it's one of the cool things about. getting to see someone from the very. beginning you know uh when I saw Tony.

Hinchcliffe I think he had been doing. comedy five or six years when I first. met him yeah and now look at him so. funny he's the best Tony's the best. rooster on planet Earth there's no one. better and he'll do it off the cuff he. can do it off the cuff better than. anybody alive yeah it's so good you. think oh this is all pre-written and you. go no he just picked all this you know I. watch the mother dudee he does it in the. green room all the time him and David. Lucas I keep telling them this godamn it. you [ __ ] do a show together.

yeah the two of them together are magic. it brings out the absolute best in David. Lucas because David Lucas goes Savage on. Tony and Tony goes Savage on and they're. both laughing at each other's lines so. like he'll clown Tony and Tony will be. dying laughing like no one gets angry. and he'll clown David and David will be. dying laughing like like personal [ __ ]. like about the way he looks and you know. dying of diabetes and dying laughing. imagine that happening with like young.

jenzy woke people like experiencing. something they should have to go to the. Mothership and sit and watch that and go. look you can tear somebody down and and. it's all fun fun it's just funsies and. one of the things about the mothership. that's so important is kill Tony because. what kill Tony shows everyone is that in. one minute all you have the time for is. to be funny and everything funny is. rewarded you could say outrageous things. people say outrageous things on kill. Tony all the time but if you do well in.

that one minute and they give you a big. notebook and they say we're going to. bring you back and then you get to get a. chance to go back or you get a golden. ticket you get to perform again or then. you become the newest Regular and now. guys have careers cam Patterson has a. [ __ ] thriving career Hans Kim is a. thriving career William Montgomery. thriving career David Lucas these guys. are killing it on the road killing it. [ __ ] I should have moved here five years. ago no no no it's perfect time dude. you're doing great and then the new. special that you just filmed there is.

coming out it is yeah yeah when you. going to put it out it's uh it'll be out. probably tonight oh [ __ ] that's so fast. and it was uh it's all election stuff. and I I'm not a big fan of themed comedy. specials but it was just like why I. don't know no mean why not for now like. well that's why I CH I changed course. and it and I saw that Biden thing where. is sitting on the imaginary chair and I. go I got to get this out. now and uh the weekend was so fun man. that room is magical it's a great room I.

think that building's alive dude it. feels like it's been there for 20 years. yeah it felt like that right away the. building felt like that right away that. building's been there for since. 1927 and I have this thought about. things that have been around a long time. I think memories get baked into. buildings I really do sure when I go to. The Comedy Store every time I go to The. Comedy Store I have this feeling you. walk in the hallway you get this feeling. like wow so much has happened here.

there's so many experiences baked into. that even when no one's in that building. I used to like when we were leaving late. at night you know we'd be hanging out in. in the the back bar in mit's bar and. we'd be drinking and talking and. everybody's like all right time to go. home and we'd go out in the hallway and. you just feel the building the building. that building's alive it wouldn't have. been the same if you just built a new. construction it wouldn't have it would. have had that kind of fresh kind of we.

would have made it alive we would have. eventually it would have it would have. taken a little time we would we brought. the right Spirit we brought the spirit. of The Comedy Store to the Mothership. you know we knew what we needed we knew. what we needed cuz we already had it we. had it in LA we had that we had a home. base and that's what we needed here like. when we first moved here I was like God. we don't have a home base we had the. Vulcan which is great but it wasn't set. up the way I would set it up it wasn't. ideal like there was a lot of problems. with the the Dynamics of the and I was.

like it's also not it's not quite big. enough like this isn't ideal like so we. started looking for other places and. then when we found the Mother Ship when. we W when I walked into the Ritz Theater. and looked around it was like the place. was talking to me it was was it just one. the what was it what did it look like. when you walked in it's been a bunch of. things since 1927 it was a pool hall it. was a a punk rock club uh I guess it was. a nudie movie theater at one point in. time I can still feel the vibe of that.

yeah there's Sexual Energy in there. weird energy in that place and then um. from I think 207 on it was the Almo. Draft House so that's what it used to. look like oh my God yeah so it used to. be like that it is that the whole thing. though or is that just what the the the. fat man is now that's the fat man so the. little boy was always there too that was. a smaller theater so the Alamo Draft. House had two theaters one theater that. sat like 120 people and one theater that. sat like whatever this seats we we we.

have it set up for 250 people now so you. see how it angles up like that yeah so. what we did was we right where Jim's. cursor is we cut the floor oh [ __ ] and. so we lifted from all the way back to. like the second row we lifted the floor. up to that height so it's flat and then. so it doesn't angle downward so that's. the little room right so we we lifted.

the floor up to make it closer to the. ceiling and then we changed the Dynamics. of the stage so instead of being like. this steep angle like a movie theater. where everybody has a nice shot at the. screen it's flat like a comedy club and. then we lowered the ceiling and then so. you could see where the balcony is the. ceiling's lower even than the balcony. cuz that that was Louis's idea to lower. it Lou's idea was like can you lower the. ceiling even more and I'm like I think. we can and so I brought New York New. York everything's just so [ __ ] low. yeah it is but it's also Louie because.

he's not just a comic he's also a. producer like he's done a lot of films. and he understands like sets and he he. deeply understands like recording and. Dynamics he's like he goes cover. everything with cloth like could muffle. all the the the back is that the old. what was this. one wow they're definitely watching. something so that was they had one solid. balcony back then interesting instead of. two B. balconies that's the fat man too yeah.

crazy look at all them back then look at. them I found a picture of Henry Rollins. there what yeah Henry Rollins was on. stage there in. 1983 look at that what year is that from. trying to find out that's crazy over. there watching a talkie there a colored. fil that's what it looked like back then. dude is that nut. n yeah so it's been there for so. long and it was the the queen it used to.

be called wow is that a river in front. of it what is that that's a dirt oh the. ground man that's probably before it was. paved before they had pavement yeah they. probably didn't pave it yet and so um. when we got there oh here's another. funny story when we got there we had to. tear some of the stuff off the walls and. a swastika was painted on the brick. Whoopsie Daisy yeah because you know. used to be a punk rock Club I guess. someone painted a swastika on the wall. Jesus and uh Punk show there yeah.

there's a punk show did did I show you. that photo of Henry Rollins that I sent. that to you I think I did um so. uh we're doing all the construction and. I I figured someone would [ __ ] remove. the swastika but it was like months. before we opened I go hey why is the. [ __ ] swastika still here and so they. go we'll take it we'll it so they remove. the paint which made a clear white. swastika I go hey. retards get rid of the design don't.

exent because now it's even more obvious. cuz now the the where all the [ __ ]. swastika was was sand blasted off in the. exact same design it's cleaner we think. you know but that's what happens when. you you know hire laborers who don't. really necessarily know what that. [ __ ] thing means they could have sent. it to Columbia University is that Henry. Rollins on stage there yeah black flag. 1982 red theater yeah holy [ __ ] I sent. you one did I show you the one no I I'll. send it to you right now I got a better. photo of it the the the better photo was.

pretty [ __ ]. crazy hold on a second I'll get it. here I know I got it in this little pile. that's 1980 black and white. 1982 well you probably hired someone. black and white do it in black and white. it's funny things really do feel old. timey in black and white. I can't find. it I gave up but anyway point is um we. have photos in the the downstairs before.

you go on stage there's those photos of. Steve rayon that's him on stage in that. club in 83 damn yeah so there's like. this crazy history that's baked into. that place and think about just think. about the history in the last year. you've been open I know how much has. happened in that room well how much has. happened to the Austin comedy scene the. [ __ ] scene has exploded. it's pretty wild it's just a it's a it. was an empty void that was needed cuz. you go on the coasts and there's great. clubs but that group identity [ __ ] this.

race can say this and that it h every. night you got to sift through that. [ __ ] mhm there's also a history of. wild comedy here because this is where. Bill Hicks started this is where. Kennison started they both started in. Texas and when I had heard about Texas. like Janine Garo was out here at one. point in Houston there was a bunch of. comics out here in in in Houston and I. was like what is going on in Houston I. remember hearing about that when I lived. in uh Boston cuz I lived in Boston. Comedy Store was Mecca that was the.

place you had to get to I remember. everybody was like you got to get to The. Comedy Store that's where Richard PRI. started that's where Sam Kennison. started Dice Clay was there all these. comedians were at The Comedy Store like. you had to get to The Comedy Store it. was the place then I kept hearing about. Houston and then uh when I. saw Kennison and Hicks people like you. know they came from Houston I was like. what keny came from Houston like from. Texas Texas made comedians where was he. performing though what what was. available the laugh stop laugh stop in.

River Oaks was a [ __ ] amazing Club I. don't think it's there anymore I don't. think the club's not there anymore. because the club moved to a new location. and I think that club went under but the. original place where the laugh stop was. was a great Club low ceiling perfect. little stage and then there was also uh. a little side area where they had an. open mic that would go till like 2:00 in. the morning vibrant scene like really. vibrant scene and everybody loved to. come through Houston and work that club.

and when you work that club you know you. do like whatever Wednesday Thursday. Friday Saturday whatever days you do you. would go there and you'd see the open. mics and we packed and the local Comics. were they were good man local Comics. were [ __ ] good like you know you'd. get to see these guys like Jimmy. pineapple these guys like you probably. never heard of them solid [ __ ] ComEd. iians you know and Shawn Rouse was there. at the time and Ralphie May there was a. lot of comics coming out of that area. that I was like this is nuts man I did.

not know that like Houston like Texas. and spe mostly Houston had this scene. and Austin had a bit of a scene but you. know little bit smaller but nothing was. like what it is now you should have. something in the middle of the country. you can't just have comedy on the on the. liberal coasts you need something in the. in the middle of the I think that has. something to do with it it help for. sanity for sure but it also helps that. it's run by Comics like that club's run. by us it's our club it's there's no one. else there's no management you know.

there's no like there's no overseer. there's no Executives that are making. decisions based on money everything's. made based on Comedy yeah yeah I know I. know some some places if they get a. couple complaints about a joke they want. you to I'm not going to mention where. but I I I kind of got a little talking. like we got some complaints about this. one joke and I'm thinking like who gives. a [ __ ] the joke kills every time yeah. they don't get it they're they're.

working against themselves yeah they. don't even understand what they're doing. they're they're literally poisoning. their own business with this stupidity. you just got to like let people know you. can be free and you'll have more. audience members and you will get rid of. these people that are looking to be. offended constantly because it won't be. effective all that [ __ ] only works if. people comply if people don't comply and. then other people go this is just comedy. just like when you go to see Quinton. Tarantino movies nobody's really getting. killed you know Bob Marley Bob Marley. never really shot the sheriff I don't.

know if you know that that was not real. come on I know come on crazy it's comedy. and the problem is these [ __ ] idiots. that are running these clubs are giving. in to the very thing that's going to. kill their business uh this has giving. me like a second Birth really because I. hit this wall where kind of you know. I've developed this act and then I you. need to experiment yeah and once I. started getting challenged when I would. try to like Veer off and experiment a. little and I'm never going to bomb I'm I. will end strong I I'm there to entertain. the crowd that's that's my thing I'm.

willing to do crazy [ __ ] and experiment. but there everybody's paying and they're. there and you know I'm going to end. strong and so um yeah that was enough to. get my ass to Texas I never thought I'd. live in Texas free you could be free. here you could be free here and you can. be free where we are like it's uh We've. set it up that way we want it to be it's. like an actual safe space. for real like yeah but but safe for. everybody man I mean you can be whatever. the [ __ ] you want as long as what you're. saying is funny it's it's all it is. there's no room for any horseshit no.

ideology No Nonsense it's just you can. have an ideology but it's just got to be. funny you got just be funny is is. palpable there or maybe the opposite of. that you there's no like the meritocracy. that you set up you can feel that there. you go in there and it's you're funny or. not yeah and you're support very. supportive identity politics stuff which. is just killing the business destroying. the scene everywhere else was just bad. for some a business that's about taking.

risks and saying outrageous things and. pushing the envelope and that's all the. great all the Imagine setting up like. what a comedy club essentially is in. this world in in in the world of standup. comedy a comedy club is a place where. you can hone your craft and perform so. you go to clubs you learn how to do it. then you go to clubs and you make a. living doing it and then eventually if. you get big enough then you start. branching out into theaters and Arenas. so it's literally the the gym it's.

literally the dojo it's the it's the. place where you learn imagine having a. place where you learn where you can't. take chances in a business that's. wrapped around Taking Chances where all. the greats whether it's Don Rickles. Lenny Bruce George Carlin Richard Pryor. all of of them said wild [ __ ] yeah all. of them and the only way you develop. wild [ __ ] is by performing it on stage. in front of people with freedom will you.

get a chance I just watched the George. Carlin documentary did you see that I. don't know if it's on HBO or whatever it. is so good and I'm almost like man he. almost had more freedom than than we. he's talking about seven words you can't. say [ __ ] piss [ __ ] [ __ ] sucker. [ __ ] tits the seven word now. it's like the seven million topics you. can't talk about race gender gender but. you can you can you just have to do it. and if you have a club that has that. established like the mothership anybody. can do it you don't have to have a big. audience they'll let you do it anyone.

will let you do it and no one's going to. complain and then they will come see you. again then you'll develop and then the. people coming to see you know what you. do and there's no worries that's how. comedy should be done that's the right. way to develop both offensive and. non-offensive acts sure you know some of. my favorite acts are not Nate Barat is. hilarious. hilar. but great comedians but that's their.

thing and that's great there's no right. way to do you ever want to see a clean. person just go I want to see them do an. hour of the filthiest [ __ ] [ __ ] it. would be funny Sebastian you know you. going to get your take on this show yeah. I take a girl home the other day she. goes can I give you a rim job I. go she starts pecking at me like like a. baby bird I go I don't want my. girlfriend to have the same lingo as my. mechanic right what are you going to. start tweaking my nipples right give me. a I just want to see him [ __ ] get.

Seinfeld yeah talking about [ __ ]. trans stuff and all that well even. Seinfeld's pushing back on all this woke. [ __ ] well he's getting prot have you. seen the protest every show Palestine. it's Palestine protests it is but it's. still kind of linked up with like we're. going to shut down comedy in for our you. know cause so he's yeah he's getting. caught up in that stuff well you got a. lot of really dumb young people that are. very entitled and think they can shut. things down because they have a cost you. think they I mean you think they would.

learn but they're not going to and. they're going to keep doing it and there. the more attention they get every time. they do it see the stop oil now people. they just they vandalize Stonehenge yeah. what the [ __ ] does Stonehenge have to do. with oil it's it's an amazing Monument. that's thousands of years old and you. just spray p all over it because you. want people to stop using oil it's a. mental illness and you're wearing. clothes made out of oil you [ __ ]. idiot everything you own was shipped on. a truck that was used oil every [ __ ].

thing you eat every [ __ ] thing in. your house everything your house is made. out of the the the electronics on your. phone the wires in your wall everything. uses plastic you [ __ ] idiot. everything uses. oil you're not stopping [ __ ] no yeah a. little tomato soup on the van go it's. always rich kids too it's entitled kids. it's Posh kids that think that this is. the thing that they should be doing with. their life CU they don't have any. purpose they're taught that from element.

now I mean for me it started popping up. in college a little bit these kids like. oh yeah age three anti-racist baby. that's a real book oh yeah yeah yeah my. kid when we were in school um right. after the George Floyd thing they sent. an email saying to young kids like some. of them as young as like six and seven. went there MH saying that it's not. enough that you not be racist you have. to be anti racist they're telling this. to kids who don't have any concept of.

race they have black friends Indian. friends Asian friends they just have. friends who's nice to me who who likes. playing the toys that I play with who. likes playing the games that I play. let's let's hang out you know they don't. care and you're making them focus on. this for no [ __ ] reason it's going to. [ __ ] them up you know person at the. school and it became like a big lawsuit. but they realized they were getting. grifted on but Jesus [ __ ] Christ you. idiots like how did you not see through. and the parents were freaking out like.

what the [ __ ] are you teaching them like. why are you doing this like why are you. introducing all these idea is there a if. there's a problem let's talk about the. problem there's no [ __ ] problem this. is not an issue at all and you're making. it an issue to make yourself important. and that's the problem with these. positions when people have these. positions of equity and inclusiveness. these people they have positions in. universities they have these positions. in corporations it's like godamn the the. whole Equity thing that's that happened. overnight the word equality was switched.

with Equity yeah the the equal outcome. and that's so you you have to force. that's the only way to do it is to force. it we have to force it we have to have. this person and this person and this. race but all the identities are becoming. infinite now yeah so it's like you're. going to okay we're with Cala Harris I. mean they had to discriminate against. against every other type of person cuz. they said we're having a black woman so. they had to discriminate against black. men yeah and Asian women and everybody. yeah well it's definitely not a.

meritocracy if you got. her no no none of it makes any sense the. whole the whole thing's Bonkers matter. it's a fascinating fascinating time to. be alive but it's good for comedy good. for comedy I'm actually playing a Dei. officer a Jedi he's called Justice. Equity inclusion officer in um Adam. Corolla has a new C now Mr burum which. he's been which he um he pitched that. like 10 15 years ago to Fox and they. said no and Dy wire who's just like.

the weight off of them yeah it's the. only way the even look with the word. woke woke used to be a cool thing and it. with because of Comedy it's foolish it's. now it's a clown world word yeah it's a. clown world word that you can't use on. the other side you can't say I'm woke. because I was like by you [ __ ] idiot. loser yeah you [ __ ] idiot so it. becomes a pejorative it becomes. something that someone points to it says. oh you're infected with the woke mind. virus like no no like no one who is woke.
