possible then the town to drive through it that's Highland Falls yeah which is
like almost eight mile dude it's like hardcore and there's the cannons of the
front porch the best selling fireworks with like one fucking one strap over in
our overall yeah it was like you know there was the fucking hardcore urban
people slinging crack that shit near the school and then outside of that was you
know straight-up trailer park really I didn't realize you were from that far up
yeah yeah well I was born in Manhattan okay and then my parents lived in the
West Village and then that was the first place that I lived got my dad was
still commuting into the city every day so he was driving an hour yeah it's
like no wonder he was pissed yeah yeah not at one point in that community was
he like can I move closer to this yeah yeah I couldn't afford it at the time so
he was a bartender still I think trying to be an actor but he had no like work
ethic or anything like that so he just kind of sat on his ass while doing a
way to work bartender yeah yeah and then he became a stockbroker just keep doing
cocaine but in a suit sure nice was that in like the 80s or 90s when I was
in the 90s pumping dump yeah like junk bonds and stuff was like hey if you have
a tie in a white-colored shirt you can be a stockbroker I can see the suits now the
suits were nice oh and they three button and they went after actors because they
were like you guys talk yeah you must have a little bit you're free during the
day you know I'll just do it for a couple of weeks to get on my feet you
know I went there too with my dad when I was like nine ten years old I would go
with him to work and what did he work did he work on the floor no he worked in
like the East Village so yeah you know that financial powerhouse
in the grocery store I mean it was boiler room it was right next to a short
order cook or something yeah it's not buying anything you got to get out of
here get out of here that's funny oh yeah but I you know it's like cunt this
fuck that all that stuff and I'm just like young and being like this is it
pretty sure I watched like I have this memory but you never know if it's made up
I have so many of those but I my father's co-worker I know this happened and
I'm pretty sure I was there I watched a guy get cuffed by the FBI wow well I
feel anytime fucking awesome yeah yeah I did that a lot anytime you go to work
with your parents that's like a pretty good indicator that you're trash oh yeah
cuz it's like there's one there's no babysitter or like they have these weird
hours dude you know many times I just sat in an office and just like just like
wander around cigarettes dude I would do my dad he was the owner of like a HVAC
company and I was like like pure garlic blue collar and then he got a little bit
of money he's like we're doing it and then ended up being like a whole house of
cards new money's all right new money in cars getting repo the night and new
money like new money and I would just go to work with I'm going through people's
desks and shit and I was just like yeah I was fucking I didn't know anything you
know hands were smaller though it could fit into tighter space yeah exactly so
dude I was just eating people so it's like a fat kid rum rummaging through
everybody's desks on Saturdays when I was a little kid my dad we used station
at that a naval base called a voca in Wilkesbury there was no where that big
naval that naval no we're near any water Wilkesbury I was born that's
man I was my sister used to go to the music camp during the summer so
Wilkesbury music camp at I think the college and it's actually like a
procedure there's some nice colleges up there I think yeah there's some nice
colleges up there but again it's like the people that live by the college are
fucking trash right right and I've performed in Mohegan Sun so who knows
I got a weird sliver of what's out there straight up Chernobyl USA oh yeah
mutants fucking sucking down six and with oxygen tank back which crazy thing
is back in the day in the 50s and 60s the 40s whatever it was a powerhouse it
was a fucking huge bottling industry huge train industry huge trucking industry
coal was huge up there it was all nice it bragging you sound like a narrator of
a documentary for Wilkesbury and a certain element it was a bastion of
americana bottles as far as the eye can see white faces everywhere and then
these hormones development yeah then it all just went downhill fucking PVC god
damn Asians and their better products the whole US PVC pipe so crazy that we
literally bombed the competition the Germans and the Japanese back into the
stone age during World War two it took them like 20 years 15 years to come back
and my god thanks for that speed but they gave us a tough time rebuilding what
the 80s were alright it was all worth it it was all worth it just for the fucking
in every capacity I mean it looked cool in the movies I didn't get to
experience it but it looked like wide open it looked like a while while it was
fucking nice sleeping good under the watch the line Ronald Reagan little fat
kid Uncle Hank in his crib
vice president Bush that's great yes Wilkesbury is trash but my dad he was
stationed at the Voka for a long time and they had like things there you know
what I mean like they had like trucks and stuff like that and I remember him
taking us to work and me and my brother literally playing around like munitions
crates yeah like just like they twisted the things and turning them and all
itself climbing over things it was awesome that's fun when you realize the
things that you considered normal in your childhood yeah you know we get a
chance to bounce everything that's got that's happened to us off of people yeah
and that helps I don't know about you but it helps me kind of you know under
a way what's normal and what's fucked up of course that's well that's kind of
where this came from so there's like a game there's like a 20 question we'll
play at the end it's but that's kind of where this came from like we realized
like oh we're all fucking trash yeah you know what I mean like you think I'm
like I'm alright and I took back I'm like I grew up driving a forklift as a
kid right for fun I'm like I'm fucking garbage you ever spent an extended
amount of time on a high reach or a forklift you're fucking trash didn't
everybody go to a with that when they were for didn't they what did you start
working was your first job 15 I think or maybe a little early 15 I think I bus
boy bus boys always they go to go to yeah and then I also did that's the
gateway in the garbage you see you see like as you've never been behind the
scenes at a restaurant before then all of a sudden you got the slop plates and
all you fucking you see how people really you make coleslaw you want to fuck
that you recognize exactly what a restaurant is yeah it is barely a
kitchen oh yeah yeah yeah folks you've never made coleslaw you're fucking
garbage yeah yeah you just massage mayonnaise and char or carved lettuce
that you remember this week he slicer remember the sweet waitress that you
thought was so nice when you're a little kid and you get a job at the place and
you see what she's really like scratch off lottery tickets change you realize
the owner has been putting out cigars in her pussy for the last two and a half
yeah cranking Marlboro five thousands out back just like you want one sweet
hot I'm like I'm 12 I guess yeah pass it over I remember working with older
waitresses like that and they would just come in in a bed like career waitresses
yeah there's a there's the attitude of a career waitress that will never ever I
might answer career bartender and you get it yeah oh for sure I mean as a
career comedian oh yeah yeah yeah you see where this could go of course and like
being a career waitress at a place where you're about to like maybe clear a
hundred on a good night if you do that like that's that's a mindset of a
comedian that is doing a hundred dollar road of course yeah yeah yeah it's the
same thing well there's also there's like a there's like the big bubble or it's
like the the career waitresses is the tail end of that is tough you know what I
mean because it's typically a good-looking chick in her 20s there and
she's just like yeah dude they're man looks like the lady that did the
cigarettes in the commercial some of her fingers are full length most of them
aren't yeah by the end of it yeah but in the beginning do they're making like
I'm doing a Tartuffo
they're making like you know they're making like twelve hundred bucks a
weekend cash and they're like this it's like stripper money you know what I mean
all of a sudden they like it lasts a little longer than a stripper because
they're like in your 30s and 40s but then at some point you're just this 50
year old person trying to make a hundred bucks like I'm like you know
Wingnight or something like that it's tough and their advice is
unforgiving they don't hold any punches just like yeah you know so
whatever you're thinking right now that's not it they're like just know
like it's gonna be a life of her yeah for life of hell they're like like you
know how people in movies they show you falling down a cliff and it's hot yeah
and then you're at the bottom life is there's no bottom yeah exactly there's
no bottom you're just tumbling forever falling and hitting every rock just like
you know fucking conhead bill fucking car insurance bill just fucking whacking
you on the head Michael don't ever get lured by a man with journey tickets
I'm telling you that right now okay he's not worth it
some chick they got banged in a truck in a six-sticks concert or something like
that but dude I had no idea you know my aunt and Sally what up girl I mean
probably I have enough ants that it's my mom's one of nine oh no my mom's

dad's mother she almost died during her seventh pregnancy and birth and right
after that like during the thing she you know gave birth and they're like if you

aunt potato I've recently read I've recently read it's not that bad to have
sex with like your second or third you hear that porn hub what the fuck who
told you that one a couple of your cousin a periodical subscribe to some
literature fucking pamphlet fucking cousins quarterly yeah exit and vogue do
you think that's bad having sex with your third cousin do what you got to do
you know it's not something I'd aim for I'd try I'd try my best to clear the
family as you know we aim for a first cousin if you fall in a third cousin
that said I would be going against my entire family's heritage because in
Ireland both my mom's side and my dad's side are from like very similar areas and
just Irish in general we are a product of hundreds of years of inbreeding yeah
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that explains a huge head look at us look at us like you
know we we consider this head was pulled from two different gene pools yeah you're
fucking no way it's our sunken eyes yeah no way I don't know that we were what
are we fucking bulldogs it was just like clans like you know like towns next to
each other and it was just like overlapping you know you do what you got
to do it's fucking raining hey they got potatoes you know what I mean yeah I
never realized how garbage the Irish were I mean it's everybody's garbage
yeah I mean the last few weeks I've been like trying I've been just talking to
people about my rage and I'm like blaming it on being Irish and all this
stuff yeah yeah you know I got similar rage issues because I'm Turkish but
everybody blames their heritage yeah it's a human that's like a human thing
of like oh we're all fucking trash and I see the Russian rage a lot that really
makes a lot of sense to me yeah it's understated yeah I feel like a lot of
yeah it's quiet range we don't have things to bitch about like I was talking
to somebody about classic Irish thing to say yeah we don't have real things to
bitch Russian everybody else is valid could you imagine being born in a
small town in Russia the same year you were born in fucking Wilkesbury PA what
are you talking about yeah we had candy and TV and shit like that you lived on
the iron curtain I would freedom could you imagine no TV barely no decent juice
boxes yeah I feel like you grew up in the movie October sky I didn't see that

sure he's a classy kid people don't listen live but sometimes they skip ahead

segments in his description oh he does I've seen it so it's like at 16 minutes
you can go here yeah Bill Simmons does it too it's a smart technique but just
my intensive yeah my podcast Irish goodbye podcast available on itunes today

clip you just posted today of were you two are you incredibly high oh yeah yeah
yeah that's it was an editing trick right no no no in the moment like so it's
such a yeah explain so we were I forget what we're talking about but we talked
about Fini just like you know expressing love and coming rainbows sure and I
just agreed with him saying that that's the closest it's like a rainbow
shooting out of your asshole and Fini like it he just goes I like dick but
there's the perfect length of pause in between you go it's like rainbows out
of your ass hole and it pauses for like a half a second too long you're a fuck
someone on here and they goes I like dick yeah it's great cuts back to you and
you're just like kind of like blanket like that you know I let him I let it
lay because I knew I wanted that isolated and I didn't process why he said

tuning into are you garbage ladies and gentlemen I'll share something with you
when I was a little kid this is how trashy I was I always wanted to live on
the set of one of those Disney shows that's because your family that was like
paradise as an adult you be that producer what's his name I feel like
those pretty easy hunting yeah I feel like those chips were pretty hot and
probably pretty dope it's like living on it in a preservation
you're going to form grown baby I shoot fishing a barrel come on now no just
like that reality just looks so appeasing I think that's why I do like you
know want to be on sitcoms yeah when I was young all I wanted to do was be
famous like I didn't know what I wanted to be good at yeah like that that's
pretty yeah I was cuz I took hip-hop dance classes I wanted to be an insane I
would have taken the opportunity be you just answered one of the questions on
not like not but you were called up by some middle-aged white woman likes
named Sally no it was a black woman was ain't soupy actually but I would have
taken getting molested by Lou Perlman in a heartbeat yeah I have my you seem like
pretty good days when he went the Perlman had all those guys seem like
pretty good for them I'd be an outtown I mean yeah they didn't get any money but
get plunged he make a grab at some of those kids yeah I think so there was
like there was a lot well they not all of them were kids like somewhere like at
19 or 21 or 22 heaven from Backstreet Boys was like 48 yeah and he would
jerk all like he would like make passes at him or like you know there was like
naked pictures he'd be like oh can you you know hit my computer or something in
the screensaver was like you know his dick outer it was like weird vague passes
I'm sure it was fucking some of those kids cuz he had like a group of them yeah
yeah he had multiple groups that he was then like pinning against each other
yeah like a real skirmish of the days the 90s the 90s those are our yeah less
blows depends yeah depends if you were working finance of financial services
in the East Village real barnburner the coke was better than the 80s and 90s
too probably was better in the 80s yeah probably yeah of course yeah nobody knew
what it was no and people are like I can make more money off this I've done pure
cocaine once and like you know pure is sure it was like 40% but it was like
fish scale straight off of a boat in my like from Miami yeah my buddy had
driven from Miami to New York and I have so many friends like that it just it was
like watching the thing go up the the piping in a mail sure yeah in a mail in
a post office it just shut up your nose and you're just like well I'm good for
I will never see you guys tomorrow yeah you don't even have to do more yeah
wow it's pretty awesome yeah this has been cocaine this has been are you
cocaine let's talk business I got one right off the bat all right it's a
little personal yeah ask you a question do you remember your family have an
Audi we did we did when we had money my dad had an A4 quattro no you meant
an Audi belly button oh that's weird I thought you meant the car too yeah yeah
yeah no but Audi Audi's kind of a car that it's like I got a little bit of
cash and this is how I think rich people spend their money real rich people
don't have Audi that didn't even occur to me that's how my dad had a BMW he had
an Audi he over extended himself yeah yeah yeah it all came crashing down in
the crash of 03 right when I was heading off to college I'm talking I was a
superstar I'm talking belly buttons no you got an Audi your fuck I don't even
know how that happens no one in my family my doctor was good he is that is
it a dot it's like a cut thing I don't know my son doesn't have an Audi because
my wife has like a surface belly button yes I'm not an Audi yeah it's not in
any it's almost like you know when it's an Audi yeah yeah yeah when you're a
little kid you see that kid at the swim club or fucking yeah a belly clip yeah
you're like see garbage yeah just happened here have you ever been in
the strip club with a family member no that's trash no no so is so this this
could be counteracted by how Irish and like sure yes well that's yeah I know I
was the same way but then that's what made me think of it I went out with a
bunch of cousins and like my brother and stuff I was like this is oh this is
cousin this is strange maybe I've gone with my cousin yeah but I don't know I've
gotten into fistfights with family members yeah I may have gone to a strip
club with my one cousin I don't think so no because I think the Irish discomfort
with sexuality that it's like you don't even like yeah that's how it always was
for me and then like I did I went to them I'm like this is yeah my brain my
the two sides of my brain were like this this is my family especially man I'm
trying to like talk about it on stage and I don't know if I can get fully get
across the potency of the discomfort whenever anything sex would be brought
up it just like it felt like a molestation yeah I remember like anytime
like there would be like a sex scene on TV or something I'd be like oh like
change a channel or like oh dude you feel the tension in my sister's bra and
came and freaked out she was wearing it I don't ever remember like
I know that being Catholic fucked me up I know it you know what I mean and being
Irish but I can't really pinpoint where like I don't remember and that that is
the most Irish Catholic thing you saying you don't remember like I don't remember
a priest saying sex is wrong I don't remember it's all the like you know kind
of like how they say like microaggressions it's all these little things
over top subconscious all over time we're like your parents have never been
like I've never mentioned sex and anytime they did or like something came
up they would all look away or change the subject so it's like all these
little things where that you know just kind of reinforce that that meant even
even if it's even if it's presented as like a secret thing like like you know
whatever like we can talk about even if they should talk about it but like you
know out of public view that's a that's like a subconscious shaming that it
shouldn't be spoken about yeah yeah yeah taboo yeah of course and I think I'm
more fucked up than I realized yeah you totally are dude what the fuck you think
you're even close to normal is crazy the only thing specific I remember and this
this did like fuck me up was when I was getting confirmed the teacher that we
had that would teach us the lessons to her confirmation she told us point
blank who's we were learning she's like if you don't say the forget you know not
the act of contrition something father or not the other not to our father but it
was something it was you know like it was like now you lay me down to sleep but
in a more serious way for you myself fucking Metallica yeah no but she said
if we didn't say that that prayer before we went to bed and we died in the middle
of the night that we would go to hell that's true that's true that's like I
mean that I don't think it happens but in the Catholic by their rules yeah it's
that's all I was like in fucking fifth grade yeah that like literally yeah man
that'll fuck you up yeah yeah you know it's a religion and all religions are
this way but religion is based on control sure so that type of shit it's
it's intentional they're trying to fuck you up so now they have the answer like
oh well you got the answer I'm looking at you I'm looking to you well and also
they want to keep you scared of course yeah then you behave yeah pretty smart
welcome to hell welcome to hell all right kippy what do you got have you ever
worn Janko jeans yes I didn't even get the co-out on that one so this is this
is how brutal I am also have a follow-up has ever been a chain while
connected yes oh yeah there's been several different variations of chain
waltz I also your style when you were a kid what kind of kid were you can you
did hip-hop dance classes yeah I mean I was just a kid that's been searching for
an identity my whole life yeah I was kind of the same guy was like a skateboarder
at one point I was like I wanted to play golf and I went through the skateboarding
phase like everybody else but I mostly like kind of I wore basketball jerseys
and stuff like that once that went out of style then I wore Janko's but I only
had what age was the Janko's like eighth grade I guess seventh eighth grade
probably maybe six through eighth eighth ending it a little bit then I kind of
got back into my sporty yeah but uh Janko's I my family was such a piece of
shit like pieces of shit but like everything I wanted they always got me
like the diet version I know I had Lee pipes which I was really upset about I
wanted Janko's and I got Lee pipes so I didn't even get those I just got jeans
like they just got me jeans that kind of had a little like big jeans weren't
even really big and then like I'd get like you know I was into rollerblading

150 bucks so my parents would only spend a hundred yeah I get like shithole
skates and you couldn't do what you wanted to take out the two middle
mind on them like like that so I had one pair of Janko's that my buddy ended up
borrowing and then he cut the bottoms of them because they were too long for him
I was like yeah my pants and they're supposed to be big pants to begin with
the first $50 pair of pants I have yeah if the bottom of your Janko's aren't
muddy you're not wearing you're not cool dude for sure so you had like you know

uncomfortable and the guy is kind of like you know looks like a sketchball

lot of money instantly like instantly was really good on the wide open back he's
also like he's one of the Nat he's like he's like a naturally funny dude one of
the funniest people I've ever met he didn't stand up twice killed and was like
I think you told me about that like why would I keep doing this you guys are
fucking idiots I don't need this so when he got rich he bought like a boat
immediately yeah time shares up the ass all that's that's always the kids of
death that's why I asked you about the lottery thing because there was like one
or two really big lottery winners in Wilkes-Berry that like our family knew
yeah and one was the demiliars this kid Bobby the millier that's a trash name
right there he went through like 2.5 million dollars in the 80s and we all
kind of hit the lottery cuz we're white yeah I recognize my privilege yeah has

like I'm super into hip-hop sure when you said I took you took a hip-hop dance
class I'm like yeah yeah it's but I also like like when I went what I played
basketball my first two years of junior sure and I was one of two white junior
college that's a overachiever right yeah well that's because my dad lost all his
money in the o3 collapse so my sister got to go to Indiana University and I got
to go to Rockland community I didn't okay it actually is a good school for
those who use it correctly it really is because it's one of they pay you to say
that yes it's what is community college for a semester it's not too shabby but
it's one of those couple weeks ago just smoke cigs yeah yeah yeah so it's high
school with cigs that's exactly so funny a lot of good-looking girls went to
community college I remember yeah and they're dulls yeah his career waitresses
they all drove Shirakos and fucking like the fucks a shirako it's like a shitty
hatchback car long story short I was I was one of two white kids I had an
identity crisis sure I wanted to be as urban as human of course well that's
what you're surrounded by like if you're like oh this is my you know I wore
Pelle Pelle jeans with patches rock that Pelle Pelle I had white on white
Air Force ones and I for a little while I had a tape up with the with the shape
up yeah I thought I was Puerto Rican because I could dance you didn't
correct them and then I the next year I'm gonna carry my dad's from San Juan
they are my cannon is the Irish boy that's great we never see nobody dance
like that Johnny no that's pretty good kid who defied the well can you come with
me to my next pitch yeah right I need help harnessing the stuff God and you

like M&M M&M really did that dude like we were like when he dropped you went
into school the next day and everybody had bleached hair yeah but my you know
slim shady yeah but first my mom did do like we always did the diet thing like
oh you're not bleaching your hair we started with Sunn and I'm like I look
awesome I look like a fucking loser lady let's get the plus I got this plastic
skateboard this ain't going well for me Sunn and always made me want to have a
glass of lemonade cuz that little lemon on the cover I'm like you're spraying
like yeah you're spraying your hair that I'm hanging out outside for nine
hours as a pale Irish kid they didn't really turn out I guess it might have
been a conspiracy to just get kids outside I could have been maybe that's
what Michelle Obama's campaign was missing Sunn and yeah yeah but I get
these wiggers don't want to be rappers outside I would bleach my hair and then
jump in the pool and it would turn green like that yeah I remember that that
was a thing where it would turn green I'd have to shave my head and then restart
yeah the green wasn't cool it just look it doesn't look yeah turn it's like a
yellow algae pool yes exactly exactly it's not a good look especially if you
want to be M&M yeah fair enough I think I got nobody likes green M&M's you got
one fully like I'm on yeah did you did you have braces when you were a kid I
did yeah on your legs run Michael run you got braces I did yeah the name of
oh I don't know but he was on
dude there was a thing about 90s orthodontist where mine is fast and loose
dude mine was in his house you just like parking his driveway there like a dog
it was a lot of that it was wide open back yeah what the fun like is anybody
watching these not even Dennis to yeah just doing it's so weird my guy was
sucking so much gas like he was an alter always 65 between 65 and 70 like an
older guy too old anybody he wore it like he was fine sure I was with it and
he seemed sharp and all that shit and then one day like I showed up and he
just had jet black hair yeah and just never addressed it and was high as a
kite and was taking off my rubber bands and putting on new ones and was so
fucking blazed he put he took a rubber band and it came through my mouth so he

nowhere and it's like Lee's wedding I think orthodontist in the 80s and 90s
were like they were just playing it fast and I don't think it was like it was
because it wasn't like that was a lot of cash being a lot of cash and it was like
not checked in because it was like kind of like elective if you want to be an
orthodontist like you didn't always have to go to an orthodontist I was like yeah
I do this in the garage you know what I mean it was like very fucking yeah well
