Now, don't do that.
No, it's don't do that.
Don't do that.

Don't do that.
That is just, what are we in 80s radio shows?
I love you guys, it was just instinctual.
I love you, pod.
How you doing, buddy?
Good, thank you for having me, mommy.
Now listen, man, first of all, I'm gonna say right now,
I mean, you're a good-looking young man.
Thank you.
I mean, you're not, when I saw you on the show,
which is, America's got talent,
you had the little hat, the little payboy hat,
you're like a little door, almost like a little kid,
but you're not.
You're a fucking grown man.
Thanks for being here. Yeah, yeah, it was a long kid, but you're not. You're a fucking grown man.
Thanks for, yeah, yeah, it was a long time ago.
How was it?
2015.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Eight years ago.
Where are you from?
So I'm from Indiana, but I lived in Vegas for like 10 years.
Vegas.
How'd you get to Vegas?
My parents.
Really?
What's your dad's choice?
That's your dad's choice, you know.
Your dad and my, uh, my, uh, my, uh, your shadow.
Yeah.
Uh, yeah.
Overall, AC units turn on.
Oh, well, there you go.
Yeah, that is.
So, yeah, so they did air conditioning.
So I had no choice.
I was eight, so I had to go.
No shit.
Yeah, that's wild, man.
Did you like Vegas?
No, you don't.
Yeah, I mean, I mean, the suburbs, I mean,
the suburbs, I think, are nice,
but the main part, I think, is not.
I mean, it's like my mother.
Vegas is my mother.
Three days, I gotta go. You know what I mean? it's like my mother. Vegas is my mother, three days I gotta go.
You know what I mean?
I gotta get the fuck outta here
because someone's dead or something happened.
It's just, but I love Vegas.
You know what I love now is old Vegas is kind of popping now
and they're redoing all that shit.
But outside Vegas, I think that would be,
I don't know, I can't, I wouldn't mind that.
Plus you get a house, you get a slamming house for like three bucks. I mean, back in the day, I don't know, I couldn't, I wouldn't mind. That plus the, you get a house, you get a slamming house for like three bucks.
I mean, back in the day, I don't know the same way.
But slamming house, you get three bucks.
Well, listen, I moved here.
When I was in Boston, I lived in a department
that I had no door.
I literally had duct tape on the inside
and you'd pick it up from the duct tape handles
and push it into the frame.
And it would just stick.
There you go.
And then the summer, it wouldn't come out
because it would like swell up.
So I would have to like fucking rip it out.
Sometimes I wouldn't get out of my house.
And then I moved to New York.
I live with Billy Burr on 97th Street.
And I slept on a fucking couch.
I wouldn't couch from his father's dentist office.
Every time you'd lie back and smash your head
on a piece of oak.
And there was a hole in the ground with cockroaches.
So yeah, it's nice.
Vegas is nice.
To me, right?
Did you have money?
You look like you have money.
Come on, you're matching.
You look good.
Look at that moth.
You can't do this.
I like a moth.
You can't have moth.
Who, you know, not to me, dude,
it's gonna wear a moth.
It's a red, right?
Am I crazy?
Is it a moth?
Burgundy.
It's a moth. Is this your, is this your, uh, that isn't Burgundy. Is this your wife? Yes. All right. Good for you.
Thank you, buddy. Thank you. Thank you. I was sucking. You know, if she was just like,
hi, I'm from Vegas too. Where was your wife from? She's from Vermont. Oh, shit. That's great.
Love Vermont. Did you meet into the Dmitri.
What's wrong with you?
What am I tickling you?
What's going on?
What's happening, dude?
You never stopped talking since you got here.
You're right, you're right.
Let me go.
Let's stop.
No, let's go.
Let's stop saying.
Well, dude, you're like a mom on a Saturday.
Just get it.
Find a place to stop.
I want it.
I'm like, answer one of these questions and I'll fucking stop.
I mean, Jesus Christ, I thought you stuttered.
You're fucking, come on, what the fuck?
You really got to that smashing pretty quick.
You son of a bitch.
I didn't hear any fucking, to, to, to, to, to that.
It fucking, let's talk about this.
Yeah.
I want to talk about this.
I want to ask you some questions.
I got it.
You, uh, you fed 19 coffees.
Listen, 15th podcasts.
I'm going to shut up.
Relax.
I see it.
You went from Vegas, did you audition in Vegas for America's Guest Talent?
No, no, I moved out to Los Angeles when I was 18.
So I was, so I didn't want to do comedy.
I just wanted to do acting.
I wanted to act, that was it.
So I always admired like stand up from afar.
Like I loved like, you know, like I worked at a comedy club comedy club perfect night job just to have my days free to audition and stuff right that's
I had a softball team that I played on
And that was where the injury happened when I was like 20 this is crazy cuz I didn't notice about you
Yeah, because when you were on
America's good talent the thing about you that was interesting is that you did have a stutter and And now I'm not interesting. No, you're still interesting because you just stuttered.
I just had a little bit of it, but no, what was interesting about that is,
I'll make sure I keep it forever. Please.
Nothing better. I got a stuttering story for you too. I hope you appreciate it. No, I will.
But, um, but like, you know, most people are born with a stutter or something. I didn't know,
I didn't know that you could have an injury, like you got hit with a ball. Yeah.
In the head.
Well, no, it's soft water, the throat,
and fell back and hit my head on the ground.
So yeah.
Yeah, but the traumatic, it was a TBI,
and I only found out years later, and it was mistreated.
And, uh,
What, it's how, I'm actually grateful that it only fucked with
stutter and motor skills. You always fucked up my speech and stuff. So yeah, it was a- So you woke up with a stuff? Yeah, I don't remember much of the injury. I don't remember the day
after. My roommate drove me to the hospital. My parents, they flew out from Vegas to see me in the ER.
And I was wrapped at the time. I had acting reps and I was doing like Disney shit.
You know, I look young then and I'm young on AGT.
I look young even before then.
Yeah.
I love this fake beer.
You had put it on the show.
It's just a little older.
It's a beer gum.
You can get some off Broadway.
I don't know.
I darkened it for just a little show.
Maybe do nine flights of stairs as fucking peeling from sweat.
So I was already doing a lot of stuff for Disney and Nickelodeon and stuff.
And then they told me that I had so many appointments lined up that week for like callbacks and final
callbacks for stuff.
And I couldn't go because I was in the hospital and then my reps called me, they're like,
what's going on? Why are you and I had to have like people explain like send emails and text telling people what happened and
And then and then they didn't they didn't drop me, but they indirectly dropped me
They were like just come back when you know those hunks of shit dropped you because they couldn't make money off you
Because that's how they big money off the skin of our backs. Yeah mother fuckers
Fuck you. Fuck you. I'll say the name too.
Well, what acronym?
Fuckin' ACC, BBB, what the fuck?
Assholes, I gotta fucking head over.
BBD.
Couldn't get them fucking voice worker,
something more, a fucking anime,
fucking stutterin' squirrel, couldn't help them out.
Fuckin' piece of shit.
T-t-t-t-t-t-t-t those my nuts.
I mean, fucking assholes.
That must have sucked, bro.
True.
Seriously, the fuck, your own L.A. you're doing it.
You're a good looking guy, you're young,
you're actually getting it done.
And then some stupid game, you try and have fun.
And you wind up fucking hitting you throat hitting your head
And then your life changes in a in a second. That's why you don't have fun
You know you do shit you work now. I mean that's not a good thing to put out to the kids. Oh, sorry
Don't have fun listen you stay kids mostly your viewers go to your auditions go right home
Don't ever play anything
That's a fuck man
So you so you wake I mean they slow of course whatever it is a bit. I'm of course I'm joking. Yeah Don't ever play anything. That's a fuck, man.
So you wake, I mean, they slow, of course, whatever.
It is a biz.
I'm, of course, I'm joking.
Yeah, yeah.
But, so you're in LA, and now how the fuck do you get?
Is that why you got into comedy?
You just transitioned to stand up?
Yeah, I transitioned.
Because you need to talk about what happened?
Yeah, well, basically, I was actually encouraged by comics because I tried to stand up twice before and I bombed
and it was just, yeah, it was just,
it was just not, I figured in that time it just wasn't for me.
So, you know, I was like, that's fine.
I had this night job and I had,
all these comics that were in the area
and they were like, when the injury happened,
they were actually the only people who were still talking to me.
Like, even friends from high school people got we still talking I mean like even friends from from from from high school people got weird like friends distance themselves
Yeah, there's a motherfucker's man. Yeah, it's crazy. It'll dump you as soon as you go so fast comics
The more fucked up you are the more we will bring you with yeah, yeah, it's like hey, man
Hey, let's do something soon. What about tomorrow? Let me check my I don't think so yeah, they fucking stick
I love actors fuck. Yeah, no, stink. I love actors, fuck them.
Yeah, no, it's hard, it's hard.
And so you're absolutely right.
Like there were just so many comics
who were just like, talk about it.
You're a misfit now.
You can talk about it.
And so the first time that I went on stage
is a few months after that.
And I just talked about the injury,
talked about some self-deprecating shit about it.
And then, yeah, and then I think it was three or four years.
Do you remember the first joke about it?
Do you remember it?
Yeah, I think the first joke I did was,
I'm terrified, I remember it was like,
I'm terrified to have kids because I'm afraid,
I'm afraid they'll be born with what I have,
a disappointment of father.
That's good. Yeah, it's just little jokes like that, because I'm thankful they'll be born with what I have, a disappointment father. That's good.
Yeah, it's just little jokes like that
because I'm thankful for that it happened
because it just taught me word economy.
Like jokes how every single thing matters.
So, you can change the whole narrative of a sentence
or the trajectory of one by the last two words
or last word.
I think that, you know.
So there was words like,
I can't get to that.
That's kind of funny. Yeah, there's just things, yeah. And just attention span of audiences, you know, it think that. So there was words like, you're like, I can't get to that. That's kind of fun.
Yeah, there's just things.
Yeah, and just attention span of audiences, you know.
Did you ever, did you ever,
were you ever on stage at the beginning
or whatever happened and you were stuttering
or it's like, oh, fuck me, I'm stuck in it?
Yeah, oh yeah, really?
Oh yeah, mentimes.
I mean, I, it used to be so much worse.
Even the first time I met you, it was worse.
I mean, yeah.
2015, I think, right after the time I was doing the show.
Yeah, you were down, it's in the front, you came up, you said hi.
Yeah, yeah, you're so nice.
But yeah, it was.
And it was taxing, talking to you.
I mean, I gotta be tough.
I think we're still in that conversation, we never finished.
No, but it's crazy, you started doing stand-up.
And then, I mean, I don't know you're like,
and not this is bad or good,
but like was it comedy and then all of a sudden,
it just happened for you overnight?
Like didn't know?
Did America's,
America's got talent.
It feels like it happened soon for me,
but I was already doing colleges for a while.
I wasn't doing any clubs or anything like that,
but I was featuring at some clubs,
just trying to and doing like a college gig a month to try and make it make it make sense and make it work. And so I hadn't been doing it for
I mean, I had been doing it for very long like, you know, a lot of people, a lot of comics,
they worked 10 years and then they get on TV or they work, you know, seven or five, you know,
from here it was I think three or four years later. So, you know, but at the same time,
years later. So, you know, but at the same time, yeah, it was, it definitely happened. I was, I was, I was grinding, I was grinding hard to make it just makes sense.
Yeah, people don't understand this. The colleges, uh, back in the, I don't know, 90s and
arts, I guess comics made a living doing colleges. I mean, grinding it out. I did, I think
49 colleges in two months of some shit like that. Wow. Yeah, I lost, grinding it out. I did, I think, 49 colleges in two months
of some shit like that.
Wow.
Yeah, I lost feeling in my pinky in this finger
from driving.
It was in the winter, so I was just in snowstorms,
trying to make it to SUNY Delphock.
You know, just dying.
I remember I got a pinch nerve in my back.
My arm, this arm would get stuck from holding the mic.
Wow.
I would grip it, because it's like, do you need a light?
Yeah, I'm just, I'm on stage with like a ceiling lamp.
Every coach and I'd have to stick my face into the light.
And my arm would stuck.
I'd have to take it out and like swing it.
It was a nightmare.
I mean, grinding it out.
You get paid.
Yeah.
But you never know if it was going to be the greatest gig ever.
Or like five people in a lunchroom in front of a spinning pie wheel.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I bond in front of the Mongolian grill.
I'd call it college game.
How what?
Mongolian grill.
I love a Mongolian.
I love those grill sticks.
Yeah, I do.
So they lit it.
It's the whole the lights are on all in the beginning of the show.
Yeah.
And then I see I see some students like they're coming by and then like there's like two or three
people in the back or whatever.
And then the light and then it started to fill in the lights go out. But this Mongolian grill is just off stage. That's all I hear. I just hear I can't see it because it's there's like two or three people in the back or whatever. And then the light, and then it started filling, the lights go out, but this Mongolian girl is just off stage.
That's all I hear.
I just hear, I can't see it because it's, there's a curtain,
but I can hear it. So it's just a ssssssss, no one was, no one was, you thought it was a Michael Jacket crowd?
Yeah.
I didn't see him.
I don't know how good you, yeah, I was, it's had 100 people.
And I'm just so naive, so early in my career.
And then there was the two, like the two administrators who ran the event, they were still left or whatever.
And then they're like, well, you get a free lunch,
I went over to the Mongolian girl,
and then the chef with the big sticks,
he would go, hey man, you did pretty good.
But that feels good.
As a common, we'll take that,
I would've called myself.
Fuck yeah, as long as he was listening.
As long as we make somebody laugh.
Yeah.
As long as the fucking Mongolian,
fucking stupid cafeteria dude was laughing, I'm good. I got you. That's my audience
Yeah, I would I won I did one during like test week
Like in the afternoon and a cafeteria like but the in the lounge and I it was all these kids doing
The test like studying for the test and one kid he goes, hey man
Can you shut the fuck up? I really gonna study for this test.
I'm like, I can't.
I have to.
I'm sorry.
I have to do 45 minutes or I don't get this shot.
The guy told me to shut the fuck up.
I felt so bad.
He was, all right, whatever it is.
Fuck.
It's your degree or my $1,200.
I know.
12.
You fucking.
You.
Six. Fuck it, asshole. You, I know. 12, you fucking you. Six, fucking ass, so you get in 12.
Yeah, so it's a rough, the college gig was a rough,
and a lot of me had to be clean.
Like, some of you had to be clean.
I remember, I finally had it in my contract
where I have created control.
You cannot tell me what to do.
So if you hire me, but the colleges would trick you.
And I remember, I went to a Catholic college.
It was four nuns with their hats, those stupid hats,
sitting at the table.
And I'm like, they're like right there.
And I'm like, I'm like, what the fuck?
Was there anybody else?
Oh yeah, it was power.
Okay, okay.
If you go to let me know, you'll be like,
go ahead, you know, sign the check.
These, you know, St. Anna is signing my check
here, fuck faces.
I can't swear, you know, it was such hell gigs.
But I feel bad because young comics,
they, it doesn't exist anymore.
Colleges are so woke.
I mean, you can't just go in and do comedy.
And you have to be a certain,
an absolute certain certainty
that you're not gonna offend people.
Yeah, yeah, it's way different.
I did one time where I always asked.
I was always asking anything you don't want me to say.
And I've always, I've gotten some,
no, it just, you know, and don't, you're okay.
What happened?
Anything, you know, just whatever.
And I did, I did a show one time where like they my management
Would they would send me the feedback that the college is oh real? I don't fucker want that. Yeah, yeah fuck that I don't want feedback from anything
They have a grading they have a number system. I'd rather have feedback from my wife after sex than that
Yeah hot sweaty clammy
Intuitive Yeah, hot sweaty clammy and tuted. Yeah, gross.
And then he started having sex with me.
Yeah.
Come on.
I'm so, yeah.
I'm like, I love it.
Look at you.
So happy.
You make me happy.
You look here.
I can't stop giggling.
That was a great one.
Um, yeah, it was fucking terrible.
Yeah, I've had some, I mean, I just had some where they just, I mean, God, man, college
games, but I did a hundred and one, I made this quantitative goal for myself in 2013.
My injury happened in 2011.
So in 2013, I had this, I was like, I'm just going to start making quantitative goals for
myself so I can just measure what my progress here.
Give me a favor.
Yeah. I want you to dumb it down a little more.
Okay.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Sorry.
What the fuck is this guy talking about?
I've got a 10 year old two play sports.
Look at me.
Talk like you talk.
Talk to them.
Talk to me.
Okay.
Don't use Marvel comic words.
All right, Ant Man.
Why are you selling that a little bit? And you only got smart after you got hit in the head.
You were as dumb as me before that softball game.
I'm kidding.
So yeah, quantitative, whatever it may be.
You're going to continue with whatever it may be.
You made some good goals.
There we go. I had some hopes. You better continue with whatever and you made some good goals
I had some hopes
Fuck you love it. I'm gonna make you street. I'm gonna give you this hoodie. I got hopes
I have dream. I got things I want to do.
Before if you got a hit on the way out you became me. Hey, your wife's like don't talk to me like that. Hey shut your face.
I don't hate my wife. I'm kidding. My wife. My wife would be the shit. No, this is not much of anything. I mean, you know, my wife, you're a kid. Sorry. God.
Oh, Jesus.
So you made goals.
So I made, I didn't even do.
I didn't even make goals anymore.
Come on, come on, no, they're 100 good.
No, I gave up.
That year.
You did not give up.
You would not be here now, my friend.
I made goals that you, they were measurable.
Qualitative means, I mean, they can't really be measured.
They're descriptive. Right, okay. The quantity. I mean, you lost were measurable. Qualitative means, I mean, they can't really be measured. They're descriptive.
Right, okay.
The quantity.
I mean, you lost me again.
Anyway, you got smarter?
That was your answer?
To get smarter?
Listen, Jordan Peterson, chill.
Just tell me what the goals were.
That's the fuck, dude.
Oh, shit.
Dude.
All right, so I did.
Oh my glasses are good.
With those on, you're gonna look fucking great in those.
Right?
Look at that.
What the fuck is that?
I mean, how good does he look?
So we're gonna get you shades.
You're gonna go to Anthony Aiden, brother.
I'm looking you up.
Those are fucking badass, man.
You look fucking great.
Where's my fucking bitchie?
You're doing it.
You're doing it nine interns.
Okay.
You're all have autism. So it's like one good one. That's one good one. Yeah, there's my fucking bitchie? You do it at nine interns. Okay, you're all of autism.
So it's like one good one.
That's one good one.
Yeah, there's one good one.
They all do one thing good.
All right.
Together, they make one person.
Yeah, I mean, not the one can look in the eye,
but the quantitative man.
So you did the goals for that year that were unattainable and then you did it.
Yeah, so I said 101 different goals because I thought it could be, I thought it could
be like just different stages.
That's what I wanted to do.
101 different stages, different places.
So I drove down to San Diego.
I did like, fuck, I'd northern California.
Just anywhere I could drive bar stow, which is, you know, whatever.
And then the next year someone told me I heard over her to Comic who was like, yeah, I did
500 sets in a year.
And then I got on TV and I was like,
I would love to get on TV.
I would love to make all this make sense for me.
So then I did like, 500 to 90 sets that year.
But my relationships suffered like all that, like,
all everything.
Yeah, you gotta be in love with comedy and that sucks.
And a lot of it, sometimes girls don't get that, you know.
How long have you been with your wife?
Did she know you'd become a...
Long time.
Long time.
Yeah, she does.
No, she thinks I'm a man more.
Kind of those glasses back.
I gotta make money.
It was good in these days.
Hey, the pink hue is nice.
Yeah, I mean, my wife, I met her years ago,
waiting tables when I first started.
And it was hard.
You waited tables? We both did. And it was hard. You waited tables?
We both did, we waited tables together.
Oh nice.
And it was hard because she didn't understand,
she liked me a lot.
I liked her, you know, she was cool.
Like Patrice said, my wife's,
my wife's been with me for eight years.
I've been with her for three months.
No, but it took a minute to catch up
because I love this so much.
Yeah. But she's, look, when you got the right person, they get it.
And now she's earned my son of super seed.
It's like, that's the only thing.
Everything else is second.
You know what I mean?
Everything's behind that.
But it took a minute.
I had to get my thing first.
So that's good that you had those goals, man.
And you did it.
You did 500 shows in a year?
Yeah, I did five, I did five, 90 or something.
Wow.
And then the next, and then the next,
I think like a month later, I did America's talent.
So wait a minute, so how did you hear about America?
How did that come in?
It was an open call, it was open casting,
and then it was the day after Valentine's Day,
so I was super hungover.
Sorry, we got the chingolonging, so I was super hungover.
Sorry, we got the chicken.
I wanna bounce back.
One sec, hold for sound.
Just hear murders right here.
We're up here, so anyways, how was America?
Yeah, it was safe.
Listen to that.
I mean, what happened to this?
That's a lot.
Dude, I remember, I'm telling you, 10 years ago.
Who's that fucking ass?
So most of those are motorcycles.
There's one that's high in the...
No man creed for downstairs.
I remember him creed nothing.
Okay, thank you for...
So it was...
Do you see one of them is a mo-ped?
That's the fat one at the end.
It was the day after Valentine's Day, and I was super hungover.
It was like, it's an open casting, so I did like a, like, it was like five.
Can I ask some questions about the open casting?
Yeah.
I've always wondered, like, is the line ridiculous?
Oh, it's ridiculous.
Like, when you got there, you're like, were you in, were you at the end?
Were you, were you getting there early enough?
I was in the first, I was in the first 200 people.
I was up, I was up, I was there at 5 a.m. And I, people. I was up there at 5 a.m.
And I, yeah.
So people were there at 5 a.m.
Yeah, and I think the first casting call,
I think was 830 or not.
First audition was open, it was 830.
I got planted fasciitis,
I wouldn't be able to make it.
My feet wouldn't be killing me.
You stood, when did you get in again?
When did you get in?
You got there at 5, when did you get seen?
I got seen 10, 10, 30.
In the morning.
Yeah.
That's not that bad.
It's still sucks.
That's like, wait, I was in the first 100.
Yeah, I was in the first 200.
Yeah, I was in the first 200 people.
Wow.
So I got pretty lucky, but I showed up so early.
And then they sometimes take it in groups.
And then there was also like, there's the open casting.
And then there's a whole other section of people
that they called in that they wanna see.
And that's like the TSA pre.
Like they, that's the, they, they went on,
like they did their shit
and then they get to go first.
So, and everybody hates it.
Like, yeah, it's exactly.
Just like, just like,
just like clear shoes off.
It's like clear now,
those TSAs like, what the fuck?
I get TSA, I'm clear, bitch.
Yeah.
I'm fucking through.
Yeah, they just bring a bomb.
I love that they keep making stuff at airports
so you can feel better than other people.
And you'll just, you'll just shit over and,
you have to take your, you have to take your shoes off
and your computer out of your bag.
Oh, and then this TSA, you know,
and then we're clear, just I'm clear.
Excuse me, I'm a, I'm a Scientology.
Yeah, fucking.
Scan my rat and I take my soul and let me
go through. I don't even fuck what you people like, dude, don't you worry about the government?
I don't care. As long as I can be better than everybody and get you can have all the porn
I watch and show it to my mother. I don't give a fuck. Get me through that security quick.
My mother, you like what? Yeah, that's right. Yeah, that's right.
Called anal beads, get it together, Ma.
I have to get to that airport.
Sorry.
It's okay.
Sandin, yeah, clear's gotten crazy.
It's crazy.
So, a Tudia now.
Yeah, they put it in a little bit.
I'll say you get it.
Every person is pouring ghostier mom.
Yeah, my mom's over.
She's watching right now.
She loves you.
So good for saying that. Say
right into the camera. I'm sorry mom. I thought it was a good kid. I mean, he had Marvon. That's your
favorite color. Uh-huh. So you wait, but you're in line. Here's the thing with lines. And
I mean, about lines. You become, you become family. Mm-hmm. Five in the morning, I remember I was in an iPhone line.
I think it was iPhone three in San Francisco.
I woke up in the middle of the night, went there.
I was like 11th or 12th.
So you're in that line and it's first sitting there
and all of a sudden like, hey man, and then you talk
and then you talk and then the person behind you jumps in.
And now you got all three of you.
Now these people, all of a sudden you're talking laughing,
then there's like a little break.
You know what I mean?
And then, so about the time,
but then when it's your turn,
it's like, fuck you motherfucker.
I'm out, never talk to you again, right?
I remember I went in and got my iPhone,
it was the last black one.
I looked out and there was the other two behind me
that wanted, I was like, I got the last one.
And we were like, fuck.
So we were just best friends for six hours in a line,
fighting homeless people in San Francisco.
Then it was like, fuck your mother.
I'll never talk to you again.
You scumbag hippie.
Injury red.
Did that happen in the line?
Have you ever talked to those people?
It is.
The thing is like, there's this holding area
when you're all waiting.
And here's the thing is if you're going to a comic,
you're just there.
There's always people who are these things
that they're practicing their thing, you know what I mean?
It's that annoying theater shit where everybody's like,
someone's stretching in the corner
and someone's like fizzing a sock,
like it's just stuff, like stuff.
So you, so like you as a comic, you're just there, all right.
And then in some comics they'll even do this thing
where like there are other comedians who are auditioning
who would come, they try to get themselves
funny up to before their audition,
so they'll start to like talk to you and try to work in.
Like, you know, when you can feel someone's
trying to work a bit, you know,
they're literally doing it to me and,
God, it's just annoying.
It's so, I hate the comics that's shadow box.
It's like, what are you doing?
Stop it.
Just go tell jokes, it's jokes.
We will, what auditions are you talking about?
I've been in the green room.
I had a lot of shadow box.
Shadow box?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like, what do you think?
It's too loud.
It's a comedy.
It's fucking 80-thousand.
You know what I mean?
There's 80, we're in Pekipsi.
It's not a lot.
Not in the reader of the shadow box.
No, no fighting.
Not fighting Apollo.
But so now you get in there dude.
Did you know, I wanna be honest,
did you think you got it or you felt it?
Oh no, no, I was there.
I mean they don't just pass you to,
like they pass you to room to room to room.
You don't just get to do one and done.
Like, and the judges, that's not even the judges time.
Like that's just all the producers,
and then if you get to the very end of the day,
which my day ended at around 8 p.m.
God.
Yeah.
The prayers came true.
One of those motorcycle guys is dead.
Yeah.
Thank you, Jesus.
I want to say a second.
Thank you.
I'm father.
I haven't had a whole weekend.
I'm coming.
There will be none.
Give us a day of the emergency.
I was just chasing us and I was done chasing.
There was nothing.
I love you so much.
Thank you for killing me.
There's no way that was that.
Oh, they're dead.
One of them's dead. He's not. I you for killing me. There's no way that was that.
Oh, they're dead.
One of them's dead.
He's not.
I have a direct connection.
Yeah.
That iPhone 3 baby.
Fuck it.
Fuck it.
Let me go.
They're all dead.
Yeah.
I really did have a connection.
Um, but it was to the devil.
Enjoy your chair.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
I love that you're wearing red.
No, it's mom.
It's mom.

Um.
So, so you gotta go in too, fucking.
Yeah, you gotta go in so many different rooms.
You go in rooms.
There's dude as a dress as like a transformer.
Someone's, someone's kid is doing a hulu thing.
Like it's just, it's ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
It's, it's chaos.
So it's all day.
So you go in, is it that day?
Yeah, all day.
So all the long, and they passed a room to room.
And they're going, he's good, go.
Yeah, yeah.
Same session.
Yeah, yeah.
So, here's the thing is, a lot of my set, like, because it was so weird, like, a lot of
the things that I was doing was just like talking about shit that's happening in the
room.
Like, is this kind of, you know, it's all the stuff that we do where we're kind of,
it's something's weird. We just have to like talk about it kind of, you know, it's all the stuff that we do, where we're kind of, it's something's weird,
we just have to like talk about it.
So, you know, like, yeah, they want to hear some of your material.
But I remember that when I finally got to the main chick,
who's like, just before she passes you to executive producer,
the my audition is, you're auditioning for the people
who are also in the room with you.
You're not supposed to look at the producers here,
and you're all the singers and other comedians
and impressionists and all this.
So you're supposed to audition for them.
It's terrible.
Fuck it, turn.
None of them are laughing, but she's laughing.
So I just like turned and kind of just broke the rule
of like performing there and was like.
Because you're a commoner.
That's the answer.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then they didn't say anything.
They're like, all right, we'll let you know.
And so then I left.
I got almost out to the parking lot before someone grabbed me.
I was like, hey, where are you going?
And they're like, they said they'll let you know.
I know what that means.
That's a no, you know, whatever.
And then guys like, no, like Lisa, she loved you.
You got a, what are you doing?
So then they probably back in.
She talked to me about my story, everything.
And then you go in audition for like a big,
like there's like a table of like eight laptops.
And it's just all these executives.
Again, fucking not conducive to stand.
Yeah, not at all.
I mean, fucking.
Yeah.
That's like, you know, that's like four nuns.
There were four nuns.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Four laptop people looking at something else.
Yeah, and that's another opportunity
to just talk shit about, kind of like not talk shit,
but you're just, you are addressing the fact
that, you know, they each all have that.
So I think, I think honestly,
to kind of talk about this,
it's just the 500 sets, I think,
just kind of readyed or prepared to me to just be,
you know, for anything.
For whatever, any environment.
Jesus Christ, one of them came back.
One of them, one of them made it.
One of them, get on the phone, get on the prayer horn with your
devil.
He's very killing.
He's got it.
You call the devil God.
Well, no, you're, I always say that the comics like hosts, people like, oh, fucking host and say, host and sucks, doesn't. I'm a m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m like nope, it means you're better. You have to learn how to go up at the beginning, get them into you, and then as soon as you get them,
let them go.
And then if someone kills, you have to go up after that
and do good.
Someone bombs, you have to be able to bring the crowd back.
You have to learn every facet of standup.
And colleges did that too.
Colleges made me hardened.
Game of the calluses I need, but still bro,
to go up in front of that type of, to go up in front of that type of,
to go up in front of that gauntlet of shit and come out the other side,
that's pretty crazy, that's impressive.
Yeah, well, thanks, but I mean, yeah, it was just something that,
I feel like I said, like I just needed to have it make sense.
So many doors were just closing.
I mean, that was an amazing compliment I gave you, you just blew it off.
Well, I'm just, I mean, I struggle with compliments. No, I struggle with compliments. Wow, I struggle with compliments. I'm gonna look at you, that was an amazing compliment I gave you. You just blew it off. Well, I'm just, I mean, I struggle with compliments.
No, I struggle with compliments.
Wow, I struggle with compliments.
I'm gonna look at you.
That was sick.
I mean, that was awesome.
I was like, dude, you went through,
I used to work gauntlet for you.
Yeah, I don't know.
Can you tell the listeners what that,
you gotta tell them what that means?
No one knows that.
No, I'm sorry.
I struggle with compliments.
So, I appreciate that.
That is nice of you.
Of course.
Did they ever let you not host?
I liked it.
I mean, I mean, nobody didn't get that.
Like I'm still hosting.
I mean, you guys are terrible.
Yeah.
But you should be.
One of the nine.
Well, I told you, they're fucking mentally ill.
You know what I mean?
The steering at your watch right now. Um, listen, so dude, so you go through this bullshit, all the stuff.
When do you know you got it?
When do you know when do you know you got it?
Huh?
Huh?
He got to be done, dude.
Come on, we can get you.
Fuck you, dude.
Come on, I love you.
This is going awesome.
Come on, dude.
I love it.
You're fucking great.
Um, huh?
When, huh?
Where?
I'm taking you to say it.
Huh?
Huh?
Huh?
Huh?
Huh? Huh? Huh? I think I said, okay, what?
I wanna know, I wanna know Drew, come on, get it together.
Okay, do it together.
Look at me, look at me, look at me, look at me,
come on, we're doing this, we got this.
When did you know, when did you know,
so you do all this bullshit that night?
So this is all one day you go to go to go to go to.
Five to eight, five to eight.
So at eight o'clock when you leave, you got it.
Yeah, they said that they'll give you a call
that they'll let you know about.
Yeah, I know, it's not even still,
you're like, do I, you know,
because I literally went to like five rooms
of just paperwork and auditions and it was a lot.
So yes, by the end of the day,
they actually ended up doing like some B-roll filming with me.
So like that's usually a good sign
and that's after the fact. So after your audition, they usually do that then.
Yeah, so that's just you know, like stuff. So it's kind of production. Yeah, yeah, production. And then they fly you out to Jersey and you audition for the judges. It was actually a theater.
Oh, what was the judges? My judges were stern, Howard, Howie, and Melby, Heidi Klum.
Some fucking tough judges right there, man.
Yeah, they're also nice though.
I mean, first of all, how he's great to comics,
which is awesome.
That's a good one, but it's a comic.
Yeah.
And that's a, you know, Howard is fucking Howard.
Yeah, and he was, he was actually right.
You know, he gave me some criticism when I did the show
where he was like, you know, you shouldn't laugh at your jokes
so much.
And it really realized like, you know, it was like, yeah, I mean, that's just a young thing,
sort of a defense mechanism kind of a thing.
And so, and so yeah, that's definitely changed.
And I mean, I think a lot's changed.
I mean, I think one of the challenges has been navigating that audience who found you
there to, you know, kind of kind of kind of growing up a little bit, you know.
Sure. that audience who found you there to, you know, kind of, kind of, kind of growing up, but a little bit, you know.
Sure.
So, but you do this thing with them
and you must have been shitting your pants, right?
Oh, you just like, fuck it.
Who, what did you have to follow?
What acted?
Yeah, right.
I had to do, I think I had to follow,
I think I had to follow.
Oh, please tell you, a chick with a hair lip who sang opera.
Yeah, it made the house come down.
Yeah, yeah, it's always Yeah, it's always something crazy.
But yeah, I think mine was like, I had to follow like a,
either like a dog show or, I don't know, I remember.
And it's not going well, they go to where they bad.
I think they were good.
Oh, good.
I think on mine, they ended up like,
because sometimes they throw a lot of, you know,
bad acts in there, but for the hour or two that we were doing ours,
they were really trying to pump up like, you know, good, good, good acts.
Did they have the golden button back then?
Yeah, dude, I'm telling you right now,
I'm such a sensitive dude.
I cry every time that button, when they hit that shit
and that little golden sparkle comes down,
and you can see him.
Fuck it.
Bing, gong.
Ugh, ugh, ugh, They're gonna still sing,
I'm fucking him in tears.
That dumb golden button gets me every time.
I got that.
Do you cry for me?
Yes, I cried.
That's so nice.
I cried at all of them.
What was he?
There was one little girl that, I mean, she was just so amazing.
Yeah.
Anytime the golden button's hit, hit I mean so here it is
you got this shit happening you're going in yeah and you're you're rocking and rolling
does your life change immediately right then I don't think it to the agents come back to the
managers come right in a little bit of that yeah a little bit of that where some people kind of
came like some people were interested in me again now that you're on a show.
In fact, I got into the seller because I was on the show.
And this is like a crazy story.
I haven't told like almost nobody.
I was second exclusive here on Patreon only.
No, I'm kidding.
We'll give it to you too.
If I ever get to cut it out, I made it a big story.
I get an exclusive. Da, da, da, da, Da da da da da da da. It's never been told.
That was my manager at the time. She wasn't.
She. Yeah.
Fuck's wrong with you.
Who was your manager?
She wasn't. She wasn't particularly helpful because I was out here filming and she wasn't helpful
like necessarily getting me spots out here.
It was just I was trying and I was like going around and she was like, well, you could
just go down to the cellar and see if they'll put you up.
I was like, okay.
So I went down to the cellar and I was like, I talked to the guy who we used to, I don't
know if he's so weird.
I don't know, but he wears a door and-
What's the size, Steve, white dude?
No? No.
Black guy?
Big black guy.
Oh, that could be anybody.
A lot of big black guys that worked there.
That guy doesn't work here at all.
I don't know.
I talked to him for half hour.
I was like, I would love to get up.
You get him.
That was all black guys in one white guy.
Outside Steve.
That's a hot guy.
I sell pizza, I don't know.
Yeah.
So I talked to him, I literally, I just felt it.
I felt that I was like, hey, I'm a comic.
I was trying to email SD trying to get out.
And I was like, is it possible if I could?
I didn't even finish the sentence.
He was like, you know, man.
And I was like, yeah, no, I know.
I was like, you know, it's just not the thing to do.
It's just uncouth.
And so I turned around, I started to leave.
And someone from, there's the line, you're, the line that waits out there. Someone from the
line goes, Hey, you're doing the, you're on the America's, or whatever. And they're like,
I watch you. And I was like, Oh, yeah. And they're like, Are you on tonight? And I was like,
I don't, I don't think so. And then they're like, Oh, well, that sucks. Well, can we get
a picture with you? And I was like, Oh, sure. SD comes out right at the same time. Right
at the same time. It was wild. Right at the same time she comes out
and starts to get people to come in or whatever,
but they're taking a picture
that the front align with me.
And she's like, who's this or whatever.
And then the guy, the guy talked to,
he's like, oh, he's like a comment or whatever.
And she's like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then that's it.
And that's it.
She's like, you know what, five,
I'm lucky.
I'm lucky.
You are.
Reluctant to tell anybody that story by the
dude.
I'm going to say,
I'm going to say,
that's why I love the seller.
That's why I love the seller because there is a filter.
There is, there, you don't just get in, right?
You have to,
as he has to see you, you have to be referred by a couple of comics.
And then as you will see you and make a decision
and then know them and they all talk and blah, blah, blah.
But the fact that at that moment,
you came out at that time.
It was, I mean, that's crazy.
Yeah, well, the craziest part is is it confirms my manager,
like my, that was frustrating.
It's now I have to go back to my manager
and be like, it was right.
Yeah, yeah. That's a six. It's like, see, that was frustrating, is now I have to go back to my manager and be like, it was right. Yeah, yeah.
That's a big thing.
It's like, she sees you.
I see you in a like, yeah, yeah.
And I'm like, no, you have no idea.
Sure I do.
You know what, you got to do it.
You go down to the club and you say,
hello, and then you never know what happens.
Life is showing up through 10%.
I need 10% of all your stuff.
Um, so, you to do a bump? I'm getting it.
48 years. Which of the nine? Yeah. 38 years. Thank you, buddy. So now you go down
and say, but how'd you do downstairs? It was nervous. I was nervous, but it went. It
went. I would say you did the set you were doing, right? nervous, I was nervous, but it went, it went, I would say.
You did the set you were doing, right?
Yeah, I just did, I just did five minutes
and just whatever.
That's good, because some comics in those situations
where they get, they go down there
and their comic ego gets in the way.
Okay, I gotta, I wanna do something that happened today
and show that it's like fucking,
when you get an opportunity, you dance with what brought you.
That's what I always say, dance with what brought you. Write that down, there. Put it on. Have you ever said that? Yeah. I was like,
I'm that's my thing. Um, I said that. She's gonna write it down. Put it on the t-shirt.

It is pretty wild. I mean, I was very, like, I mean, I was, I was very shocked
that it happened and then she asked me back the next night and then I, and then I came
back and she gave me a little more time and then just kind of, you know, yeah, she put

she brought you back in. But now you're, you're doing the, you're doing the, the show at
that time. Yeah, you're still doing the show. Yeah.. Yeah, I still do it on the show.
I lived out here for three months to do the show.
It takes three months to do the fucking show.
I mean, yeah, they film with you during the day.
So what did you do while?

I remember I fucking, I met somebody there for an audition
once for a movie.
It was down to me and the guy, another guy.
The replacement.
He was the replacement.
Remember the replacement?
Yeah.
Who's the guy?
It was down to me and some other guy.
It was for the kicker.
It was just me an Italian guy.

I think it might have been Ralph Machio or something.
Oh nice.
This back when I was young, fuck,
I had hair and shit and I went in dude.
It was, so I didn't get it.
It was me and him, I met in the hotel.

But I... You were busy, right? You were busy doing the show. Yeah, a couple of times. And I know you're always here. Because you were busy, right?
You were busy doing the show.
Yeah, they filmed a lot during the days.
I was doing gigs in between, too.
I would fly and then fly back.
So shit picked up because you could use a monthly show.
But here's the thing.
They saw you on TV.
Yeah, and the thing is, I already had stuff booked during the summertime.
So there was stuff that was pre-existing to the show. Now, but you had pre-existing shit before the show. Oh, you had to that during the summertime. So I, you know, there were stuff that was pre-existing

Connotated of that, I just crushed them.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Um.
So, uh, so we did, uh, so we did, yeah, so we, so I did that.
And then it was, it was, it was the singer.
She's super famous now.
Her name's, uh, Gabby, something she's a country singer, uh, Gabby.
I can't remember her name, but she's from Pittsburgh.
If I had a producer that had a keyboard with a computer,
put it right up on that thing over there, would see it.
But since I have three guys that are going, uh, walker, walker, walker,
what's the song with the song you like like know the one with Charlie poof?
Anyway, she any.
Gabby bear. Thank you. That's it. Fucking guess wife who's faster than all you

She used to.
Used to.
She's for five years she did.
Awesome.
I love to bring my wife and kid with me.
It's awesome.
Yeah, I don't.
She stays home.
Yeah, it's like when I need her in Cleveland,
I'm not going.
We're going to a Rubin next week.
I'm coming.
Look at you.
I'm gonna fucking need you there on a dodge
island with a red light district.
Stay home.
Fucking asshole. I'm gonna kill myself in there on a dodge channel with a red light district, stay home. Fucking asshole.
I'm gonna kill myself in Buffalo and you're not there.
Be my way through fucking wings and donuts.
Get the lake effect.
Anyways, I digress.
So.
So I did this drag show.
Gabby's dad was talking to me about how she was like,
Gabby's dad was like, you know, she's amazing.
She's gonna be the star and I was like,
I believe it or whatever.
And he's like, no, you don't understand.
She's amazing, she's super talented.
And so she goes on stage, she sings like Ariana Grande's song
or whatever, she co-stars, she murders it.
It was like, she's the most talented person ever.
And then there was a bunch of drag queens who went on stage, they're
super funny. And then I went on stage at the end. It was a very random show. And it was
in like, yeah, the stripper, the stripper polls there. And then I got to stay at the, I got
to stay me and my girlfriend at the time. We got to stay at the club owners house, which
was like this mansion that looked overlooked Pittsburgh. It was amazing. Wow. Yeah. It's
a beautiful. So did they, so you do this thing that looked overlooked Pittsburgh. It was amazing. Wow. Yeah. It's beautiful.
So today, so you do this thing and then you go through all this stuff with them.
And you come out the other side of the show.
Yeah.
Do they like, is it like American Idol?
Are they on you?
You have to, no, only if you win.
So they don't, you can just go do what you want.
You can pretty much just go do.
Oh, that's great.
It was.
It was great.
It was.
You know, Tom Cotta, right?
Yeah.
Love Tom Cotta.
I mean, it's one of my favorites such a good joke writer he's I mean amazing funny hilarious great clean he's great
crystal but on the edge yeah on the edge yeah he's on the edge but still like it's
still all appropriate you know what I mean if you can't laugh at that with your
family and his wife his wife's hilarious too really she's a comment she's a
comic yeah they're both comedians. Yeah,
and they got three boys, great boys. Yeah, I was so happy for him when he got it because, you know,
we all come from he's from Boston too. And you know, you go up and down and you know, except for
Dane. You know what I mean? See you later. But you know, you go up and down and up and down and
you know, he, when he got that, it's like he became,
that was a perfect show for him for what he does.
Yeah.
I could never do it.
I could never do it for what I do.
It's just not my thing,
but when he did it and then he became successful at it.
Yeah.
And then he had this whole new career,
which I thought was awesome.
Yeah, and it is a show that,
at least at the time,
when Tom was doing it and probably when I did it,
it could seriously boost someone's career if they were, if they were comics.
And then I know there's a lot of comics who even sell comics who have done it.
Dan Nattaman.
Yeah.
Nattaman did great.
Yeah, there's a couple guys that did great.
So I know that it's, you know, it could, it could do that, but it is.
It is.
It's, it really, it really used to it out.
It helped, it definitely helped, but I would say at the end of it,
it really becomes up to you.
I mean, it always is up to us anyway
to try and maintain a career or create one.
But in my head, I just,
I thought that maybe stuff was gonna line up after the fact
and you're like, all right, well, I guess it's back to me
back to the grind of just doing all the thing yourself. But after the show, it had to be a different world for you.
It was different in that there were clubs that booked me, but it wasn't so much different
in, like I still had to create like stuff on, like put stuff online and create an, uh,
create an audience.
An interesting thing you did, which I got into secretly.
I secretly watched you on social media with your dog.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, you had this thing that you were going on,
and it meant it was on TikTok or something,
or it was on Facebook.
It was YouTube Facebook, yeah.
Yeah, it was Facebook, yeah.
One of those, and I remember you had your service dog.
Yeah, and you would, people would fuck with you.
Yeah.
And you'd have these things with people and you,
Yeah, it was wild.
It was crazy.
Yeah, it was crazy.
But it was very interesting.
Yeah, it was, it was pretty interesting that whole,
I don't know, thing you do.
But why did you, like a service dog?
What did the service dog do?
I, I had a lot of, I just had a lot of like, just,
just, just, just, just, I have to distress an aftermath
from what happened with the injury.
And I felt overwhelmed
in a lot of social situations.
And when I would take her,
I would have,
like if I was ever at home
and I was having like a,
where I would get to like a catatonic state
or feeling like I just can't do anything.
I would just kind of lay down,
and you would just lay on top of me.
This is after America's Italian.
This is after success.
Well, they were, no, I had her, I had her better before.
But okay, so you had her before, but-
Yeah, I had her before.
So even after, I mean, after all the stuff,
did you, did your life change or did you get better
or did you kinda, did you go back into some shit after?
Yeah, I mean it-
Cause there is a, still there, you know what's still there. When you became, when you get better or did you kind of, did you go back into some shit after? Yeah, I mean, it's still there. It's still there.
You know, it's still there.
Like when you became, when you get something,
and you, people don't understand,
you get this stuff and you're on TV,
and then when it's over, there is a thing,
those people, you saw for three months,
you don't see anymore, you use Sarah Good family.
And now you're alone and you're back in this place,
and you're on the road by yourself.
Yeah.
And it's a little, it's a hard thing to, you know, like I was on a TV show for two years,
and it's like, this was my family.
I saw a lot, and then when it's over, and they cancel it, you don't see those people again.
Very rarely do I see those people.
It's a hard couple months.
It is.
I mean, and, you know, you give shit for actors or theater people.
And it's just like, no, there's a lot of camaraderie
in building a show and doing a show, being in a cast.
It's fun.
And I mean, it is family at that,
because you build a unique experience with someone.
And like a show like America's Got Talent,
you won't share that with anybody.
That you'll go no one else.
You talk to anybody, you talk to Howie or anybody?
Oh, Howie, yeah.
Howie, yeah Howie.
There's a few other people from the show like Piff,
sometimes, sometimes, who else was on my season.
There's a few people that I still follow on Instagram.
Do the judges talk to you at all?
Not so much Stern, not so much Melby,
occasionally Heidi Klum, but mostly Howie.
Mostly howie. He's a comic.
Yeah, he's a comic and he gets it.
You've been up JFL, right? Yeah, yeah, I went to, I went to 2019, mostly how he. Mostly how he's a comic. Yeah, he's a comic and he gets it. You've been up JFL, right?
Yeah, yeah, I went to, I went to 2019, it was awesome.
Now, you're clean on that show, but you're not just a clean.
Right, right, definitely not now.
I mean, but I'm not, I'm not a vertically,
like I'm not crass or dirty or no.
Yeah, like no one say blue, yeah, I wouldn't say blue.
Yeah, I have a terrible.
You just did, you saw my set around the corner.
I won't let it go, what?
I mean, it was, I mean, it is, I'm terrible. You saw my set around the corner. I won't let it go what?
I mean it was I Mean is I'm terrible. I mean yeah, I really stink. I could have had such a more powerful potent career
What I mean dude no way. No, I'm kidding. I'm on me. I'm 100% me
But it's I do say some ridiculous shit. It's the best. This is what makes you you. I mean it makes me man
It makes you know the young mean, it makes me me and it makes, you know,
the young table of women go, what the fuck?
What the fuck?
But that's just, it's a reverent.
It's amazing.
Yeah, another word, I mean, you're going crazy
with these words.
Dude, dumb it down.
I mean, I had to put you know what, dude,
and fucking letters, like, they don't understand this.
You know what, D, and fucking letters. Like, they don't understand it. You know what, did Donnie what?
So yeah, so the last special that I just did,
I released, I self-released it on YouTube
and I talked about, I did four jokes, it was 40 minutes.
I talked about Jeffrey Dahmer,
the homeless vaccine and abortion.
So I would say things have changed a little bit.
Tell me those again, What are the four jokes?
Jeffrey Dahmer, Homeless, Almost vaccine, vaccine, abortion, abortion,
or jokes. Is that the name of the special?
Yeah, it's it.
It's a tattoo on my back.
What's not the words?
I'd be fine. I'd be great. I thought you guys met. She was a tattoo.
You want what?
What?
So what was the special call?
And these are jokes.
And these are jokes and where can people find it?
YouTube.
YouTube under what?
What's the name of it?
Your name?
Jew Lynch.
Jew Lynch.
And it's free.
What are this whole new thing now?
Give away some.
I mean, I think it's Netflix.
Yeah, I mean, it's Netflix or self-produced.
How come Netflix, I mean, I thought Netflix or somebody would,
like Amazon would scoop a guy like you up,
you're a good-looking young guy, you're funny,
you're on this thing, you have a fan base.
I don't know. I don't have the answers to these questions,
but I do know that you get full creative control whenever you do it yourself.
You get to manipulate budget and editing.
And so for me, I'm doing for this year. That one was like an impersonal.
For what?
Specials.
I hate you.
Why?
I, cause you're fucking, you make it listen.
Here's a deal.
You've sent the bar too high.
You fucking goddamn son of a bitch.
You and Louis, I have my son, you're a Mark Norman.
Yeah, yeah, I did another specialist,
but I sat with him on this year, I'm gay.
It's really good, it's really good.
I'm so really good, my Norman.
Hey, all right, yeah, you started, so don't I?
I started around my pecker, all right?
We're all gay.
We're all gay.
Fucking Christ.
But, so in like 30 minute increments,
this one, so that one was like 40 minutes,
this one's gonna be probably closer to 50,
then I'm doing a crowd work one,
then I'm doing one at the end of the year, probably.
And it all goes on your YouTube.
That's the idea.
That's awesome.
Good for you, man.
That's awesome.
I mean, I just think like you can put something,
I think, on HBO or you can put something on Amazon Prime,
but who knows who knows who's gonna see it?
Who knows what the...
Dude, I'm telling you right now, everybody's doing it.
I actually, Louis did mine, thank God,
and put it on his site, which was,
I mean, I made way more money
than it would have ever made.
God bless Netflix.
Look at, I'm not gonna trash a company
that is investing in what I love,
standard comedy, and Burt, Shepal, Burr.
It's not, they have, and all the people they do shit
with God bless, Robbie, and all those people.
But, it sucks when you're not one of them.
You gotta go fucking wood to a black man.
You don't like white guys.
You don't like bald guys with tits.
You know what I mean?
Whatever.
Thanks man.
I appreciate that.
What do you pan?
What do you pan?
Are you pan fat?
Joe, the other two left, Joe just like a flip flop. Just stairs. Are you pan fat?
Joe the other two laugh Joe just like a flip flop just stairs
Look at him. I mean fucking guy guy swear to God. There's someone inside him controlling him like a muppet
Let me ask you question. Is it brought you when people fuck with you? You're stuttering. Do you get sensitive? I don't know. Not as much anymore.
Did you?
I mean, I used to.
I used to be on high alert all the time.
I was very defensive.
And I think it's just, the frustrating thing about it
is you just, you want to be able to,
you have so many things that you want to say.
Yeah.
And you just, you can't.
And, or, you know, or you are able to,
but just not to the degree or the speed
of what you want to.
How did you become, because you're so much better
than you were? How did you become, because you're so much better than you were.
How did that happen?
Well, it has been years of just different remedial therapies, different, like, I mean, I've
tried everything to be, you know, I mean, I've looked at like Steve Harvey interviews where
he was talking about, he's stuttered and how he got...
Steve Harvey, Steve Harvey stuttered?
Yeah, he stuttered.
I don't know. Yeah, there's people who you don't even know and I mean and they and they
almost I mean they don't there's a lot of people who just kind of hide it
because you know they don't want it to be that that that marker that blemish on
whatever but Paul Rudd Nicole Kidman I mean there's a lot of people like gay people
right now I think I am I think I am I think. Don't you fucking tell people that I stuff. Yeah, right when you say it, they do it.
You fuck her, sorry.
Yeah.
It's how you act.
Because studying, listen man, studying, I know it's a socks to have any type of speech
impediment.
It just blows.
To be a comic and have it, it's a tough thing, but you found a thing where you could,
you know, have it and be funny.
But to me, farts and stuttering are hilarious. To me. I mean, and that's it. I mean, well, that's it
That's my whole act. It's my new hours called fart and stuttering. Uh-huh. Can you be on it?
But I remember I'll tell you my stuttering story me and my wife
I've told this before me and my wife were having the baby and
She she's like I want a doula. I'm like what the fuck's a doula? And she's like, I wanna dola.
I'm like, what the fuck's a dola?
And she's like, it's a lady.
I don't, we don't have to go to the mom.
We don't do it.
I just wanna dola.
I wanna pay for it.
It's a lot of money.
But I wanna dola.
And I want her to come to the house.
And I want, she sits down.
She tells us everything we need to know about, you know,
the baby, when the night it's gonna happen
and things you need to know to help me.
Blah, blah, blah. And I was like, all right, fucking whatever.
And it showed me the price.
I'm like, oh, this shit better be good.
I mean, we better get gifts.
Like she better come with doula coffee mugs.
Yeah, everybody gets a mug or a yedi or something, right?
Or the afterbirth, yeah.
So, yeah.
So I show up and I open the door.
We were living on 47th Street.
We had a one bedroom duplex, nice little apartment.
And I open the door and there is this black girl,
like Cosby Kid Black, you know what I mean?
She's fucking gorgeous.
I mean, TV, it's 1992 black. I mean, like that, not not now, Mrs. Pat Black on TV.
It's like, she's, I mean, gorgeous black girl sitting with my wife at the table. And I'm like,
I'm into this now. I'm fucking, I'm glad we got this doula. She's got all of a props and she's
like, you know, she's a hello. You know, I'm getting a props together.
She's got all this stuff and this pamphlet.
She's gonna teach us and this, like a baby thing and other things.
And, you know, and I'm like sitting there like this.
And my wife's like I went, shit.
I go, honey, shut the fuck up.
She had the worst daughter.
And it was the fucking longest 17 hours of our life.
No kidding, it was only an hour.
But dude, I mean, we had to hold it back.
But it was, I wish she acknowledged it.
Like, look, I, so we could have been cool with it
after the first second, but dude, I laughed in my head
for an hour.
And then she took my wife on the couch.
This is a bit weird.
She goes, all right, you're gonna have to massage your wife
and she took her on the couch.
And my wife's pretty and this girl's smoking hot.
She goes, all right, get on your knees.
She got my wife on her knees
and she got behind my wife.
And she started rubbing her upper butt and she goes, all right, get on your knees, she got my wife on her knees and she's got behind my wife. And she started rubbing her upper butt.
And she goes, okay,
and I'm standing there, my wife's like right here.
Like her head, I'm here, her head's here, I'm standing.
And she's behind her rubbing her butt.
I'm like, should I get my, there go?
Look, I thought I was like, this is great,
this is not real, right?
This doula thing, I mean, she's stutterin',
this is all a fantasy, isn't it, right?
My wife's like, what the fuck up?
I'm like, I was like, should I take it up?
Yeah, dude, Dula.
Stuttering Dula was the fuck of greatest ever.
Dula.
Yeah, I think stuttering, look, man.
I think it's great.
First of all, I love that you found a way to deal with it
and you kinda out of it,
which must be stress-releaf for you,
but it didn't make you stand out.
It didn't make you, you know,
not like it was a hacky thing. I never wanted to be that.
No, no, dude, it was your thing. I mean, look, you're going to get shift work. We're going
to give you a shift for it. Yeah. As comics, yeah, look, dude, you know, if you wear a hair
piece, if you stutter, you have, I remember there was a guy with a, we get no leg. We fucked
with him. Yeah. I mean, he had two strokes.
I mean, it's he's taxing to walk to the next seller.
I got a spot, but let's go now.
It's fucking eight.
Your spot's at 11.30.
You know what I mean?
So.
Yeah, that's what I love about comics
is that there's no bullshit about it
and everybody can just bust ball.
It's men with love. That's what I love about it.
It is, man. And it's like, we make everything funny. And it's good that you did it. And
I'm glad you still around. Here's the thing with those shows, man. Yeah. To be around
still and doing comedy and kicking ass, that's an accomplishment because those shows that will filter you the fuck out.
There's a lot of people that won those shows.
They never hear from them again.
They are still around, that means you legit.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, I mean, I appreciate that, but it's 100% like,
it's just, I don't know, it's just like,
I've somehow just fallen in love with the grind of it.
I have the challenge of no longer wanting to be,
well, not wanting to be, but just,
I have the stutter be a part of who I was,
but not really define who I am.
I never wanted to be about the way I'm saying something.
I always wanted to be about the shit that I'm saying.
100%.
And here's the thing, man, that's what I love about this type of stuff.
You never know what's bad or good.
You don't know, something terrible like that happens.
I mean, that's fucked up.
That week, that day, that month, that year.
I mean, shit, fucking, why?
And now look at that.
Look at where that brought you.
Look what it meant.
You go, it made you take a left.
Where did you go down that road?
Yeah.
Now you're a standup, making money.
You've been on TV.
People know who you are.
You got a smoking wife from Vermont.
How great is that?
And it's great.
Right?
Hit the go up to Vermont, Ben and Jerry's.
What part of Vermont? She from the woods are from fucking Broadway. The woods. Ah, right? Get the go up to Vermont, Ben and Jerry's. What part of a march?
From the woods or from fucking Broadway?
The woods.
Ah, fuck.
Okay, well look, you go up there, hike.
I mean, pretty wild, man.
Pretty wild with shit takes you.
It is.
It's fucking, now you're here with me.
What is it that you know?
What's that?
I was gonna ask you, what you've done this for so long.
Yeah.
And it's not a show where I feel like I should even ask.
But I just, I wanna know, you've been around for so long.
You've known so many things.
What's something that you, what's a token piece of advice you give
like younger guys, younger guys?
The only advice I give comics I think is get on stage.
Yeah.
Cause I can tell you, like when I started, I got so much advice
from comedians.
The ones above me don't swear, don't be dirty.
Do whatever you want, all this shit.
And if I had listened to them,
I would have never found myself.
Yeah.
You know, I just got on stage.
Get on, I got on stage as much as I could.
I showed up at the club,
and when I had the opportunity, I got on stage. Yeah as I could. I showed up at the club and when I had the opportunity,
I got on stage.
Because that's terrifying.
Show up sucks to work all day.
To have three or four jobs.
Go to a club at night and sit there hoping
that's a hard job.
To get on stage, that's another hard job.
To bomb, do good, feel good,
then to fucking bomb for a month.
I mean, it's a real, I was in love with comedy.
I fell in love with it.
So, my only advice to comedy, just get on stage, show up,
get on stage.
That's it.
And you'll find this thing, it pushes the bullshit away.
Even if you get a little success, it will push the shit out.
And the ones that are supposed to be here stay.
You can't get rid of them.
You can't get rid of me.
I'm a comic.
Yeah.
That's what I do.
And there's been times where I'm like,
I wish I was an actor.
I wish I was something else.
I wish I was a fucking carpenter
because it hurts to do this shit.
It's fucking kill you because it's all about you.
It's just who you are.
You, we go on, buy ourselves, we don't have backup singers,
we don't have a bass player that we can throw it to.
We don't have anything.
We go on stage with a microphone and a light
and we try to make people feel the hardest feeling,
one of the hardest in the world, every 30 seconds
for the whole time we're up there.
That is fucking bullshit.
And we're in love with that.
So I think just getting on stage.
And there's not much you can tell another comic
other than that because who the fuck, who am I?
I'm still grinding it out.
I love it's why I love Quinn and Norton.
These guys are still coming down to do spots.
Yeah.
I mean, Norton has a penthouse paid for.
He doesn't need to come down here, but he does.
He comes down more than once.
He has a day gig that comes down to do spots
to work out jokes.
That's fucking crazy, pension.
But it'll never change you though, you know?
Yeah, wait, I'm waiting.
Yeah, that's the thing.
The one thing I did learn though is that, you know,
the one thing I did learn though is that, you know,
I got a life.
Yeah, yeah.
You know, there was a point was like, look man,
I'm going to lose it all, or I'm going to go get a life.
And I have a life now.
You know, I forgot what I was doing this because I love it,
but also I was doing it to get a life,
to have the life I never had.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
And now I got that.
I got that.
I got a wife, I got a son, I got a house.
We have a backyard, we have a tiny house.
We got a Bernadoodle.
I got this crazy life that I'm going back through tonight
that I can't wait to, you know,
and I was a piece of shit for a long time.
You know, I thought I had to be a piece of shit scumbag, fuck to, you know, and I was a piece of shit for a long time. You know, I thought I had to be a piece of shit
scumbag, fuck up, you know, crazy, comic,
and fuck everything and not connect to anything.
And the reality was, as soon as I connected this
something, everything got better.
Yeah, you know, so, yeah, go.
I like that.
I got questions for you, motherfucker.
All right.
Can I ask you some questions?
Yeah.
Yay, did you have fun?
I did. It's a good time, right? Yeah, you killed me, Bobby. You were a little I ask you some questions? Yeah. Yeah. Did you have fun? I did. It's
good time, right? Yeah, you killed me, Bobby. You were a little, we started out a little rough,
but I don't think we need rough. What are you talking about? You say a couple dicks.
No, kid. Your wife is fucking smoking hot. It's so hot. God damn it. Good for you.
That question? Italian or she, what nationality? I'm Irish and Swedish. She's she's Bulgarian Bulgarian
Mulgady. Is that like vampire people?
You knew special let me plug that first released in four parts. Yeah, so well that's that's that's
throughout the year. Oh yeah, yeah. Yeah, so the the one that is out now is the one that's
and these are jokes and then I film on Saturday in Atlanta the next one and what's that called?
That was gonna be called short king short king. So you got four parts coming out over the year. Yeah, one's out now
You film on another one. Yeah, so go check out your YouTube page. That's awesome. Do a good field. Thanks, but um
This is funny somebody wrote this. I can't wait
Maybe I can wait. Can you say banana? Oh fuck them do
But yeah, I can wait. Can you say banana? Oh, fuck, damn dude. But, yeah, I can't.
The banana, yeah.
It's been a tough word for me for years
and it's like an inside stupid joke.
So.
I'm sorry.
Yeah, no, that's okay.
It doesn't bring back any bad memories,
but it's funny.
It's funny that it,
it's funny that it,
it's not a controller now.
It's not a crime.
No, but, man!
Slow motion, buh buh buh.
Yeah.
The dog runs up I got a
Stopped everything and jumps in your chest and you
Have to put max on your chest to get your dog just lie there
Sniff is here
It's it's I just such an inside thing that it's crazy. I made it. It's made it wait. It's made it's way here
Oh shit, I fucking can't even
That thing haunts me bro
These are some fucked up things lost to a ventraliquest. Yeah, you don't have to bring that up your piece of shit
Yeah, that's okay
All right, here we go. This one Wind Windex Drinker 48, just from the name,
it's gonna suck.
I mean, usually the name's,
what happened to the special hire Mandel produced?
That's a good one.
Oh, that is a good one.
Yeah, it was unfortunate that we went through
the whole process of filming it,
and then we went through the process of editing it.
The guy who produced it, produced,
and I say produced, wanted 50%
of the intellectual property from the special.
50% of my writing.
And so he said the way he's writing.
Yes.
Yeah.
So he pitched it to me, he pitched it to me that it would be, we'll split everything.
And by that, of course, in my head,
I'm like, oh, that's cost, right?
There would be no way in anybody's right mind
a comic would give away IP to a joke or any jokes ever.
Never.
So he said to me.
He's talking to someone to make money while he sleeps.
Yeah, that's exactly it.
And so if there were to be a show or a joke or a sketch
or anything or whatever, Movie, anything that got produced
that had something like that in it,
or was born from it, he would get 50% of that.
That's the way that contract read.
I had to get lawyers to figure out that.
And so he came from,
he's a screenwriter, and he came from Hollywood or whatever.
And so his whole thing was like,
I guess in his mind, he thought that that was standard.
Or I also kind of feel like he was trying to pull a little bit of a little bit of, a lot of percent out of my, because I mean, I was young, I was like, I guess in his mind, he thought that that was like standard. Or I also kind of feel like he was trying to pull a little bit of
a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a little bit of a So he didn't produce nothing funding wise. No, no, no. Oh, so this guy and you were producing? Yeah, yeah.
But it was gonna be 50% of the sale and the 50% of expenses.
But nothing IP wise.
And I talked to so many comics and they're like,
don't fuck.
I can't believe fucking Bobby Lee did that to you.
That's fucked up.
I'm gonna be so shit.
Fuck him, man.
I can't believe.
Oh, was that not supposed to say?
Was that not supposed to say?
Was that not? Wow say it was him?
Wow, that's crazy.
Bobbie Lee producing my first special
is the most random shit I've ever heard.
I was, oh, the name, I was gonna say Irish affair,
but I don't wanna get beat up.
He's the evilest guy in comedy, do you know that?
He was what?
Evilest guy in comedy.
I believe.
I believe in YouTube, watch it.
He's a fucking piece of shit.
I heard about yesterday.
I think it was crazy.
Oh my God.
I comedy.
Nerd Gina.
Okay, comedy nerd.
I had to read that slow.
I said, you have to write said, I understand assholes.
I'm not, I don't know his words, but I know all the other words.
I'm fucking, God damn't know his words, but I know all the other words. Fuck it. Goddamn semicolon means.
All right.
What have you done to reduce your stuttering and where were you at all worried?
It would affect your career.
That's a good one.
Oh, yeah.
Well, to mention it again, I've done therapies.
So I've done, I've seen neurologists and speech pathologists.
I'm still in speech.
I still go to speech every month.
And I went to a neurologist last year
who was like, in order to heal a lot of inflammation
in your brain, you have to do the ketogenic diet
for the next year.
And you have to do brain exercises called anti-secods.
And so I threw a lot of that and doing like,
there's other things that like, I have to do
like, I do like soccer every week because that's really good for brain health, stretching
is really good.
So I've done, I've seen chiropractors, yoga, Tai Chi, float tanks, sound baths.
I've done, I've just done everything over the years.
But truthfully, the thing that has brought me the most comfortable with my stutter.
If you see a wife, I'll stab you.
Yeah, okay.
I'll say the nice one.
My wife.
Yeah, and it's been Bobby's wife.
She does give good hand.
That's it though.
Nothing else.
I heard a dola, yeah.
Against crazy.
Pre-medipal's shut things down.
Go ahead.
It's been, it's just been the comfort of being,
being okay with the fact that it can happen. You just build up so much in your head.
Like, socially, every person like me who stutters, we're always just so aware of everything
all the time.
Like you're washing yourself all the time.
Like you're like a director for your own fucking scene.
And if you can't stuck on something, you have to think of another way to go around
however that thing is.
And the more that you get, like you cling onto something like that, the more you stutter.
And so for me, it really has just been a mindset shift of just like, you know, I'm relaxed
with who I am.
I'm comfortable with how it goes.
If it does happen fine.
And there's just that, there's just that, that catch 22 of just being like, oh, the irony
is that if you don't think so much about it or you don't care so much about it,
it kind of just rolls off of you.
So that's how.
And then worry that it was affect my career.
Yeah, because there's a big part of my career
that got introduced to people through knowing that me that way.
I mean, people, they might not even know my name,
but they call you the stutter guy or the guy who's
the stutter stutter.
And I never wanted to be that,
that always felt like such a gimmick to me. It always feels like it's I never wanted to
be seen as a crutch, you know, I did a show, I did a show, you
know, Danny last night and it's like, I mentioned it like once
just for you. So you know, in case it happens. But other than that,
like, I don't, you know, I mean, look, dude, here's the thing about
podcasts that I love is that you can, you can actually as
before podcasting, you might have been the stuttering guy from James.
But now you're going to shows and people actually listen to you
and hear you, oh, this guy's cool.
This guy's fucking great.
There's a story behind this, all kinds of stuff.
You know, I didn't know the thing about the softball.
Yeah.
Is it true though, the guy who hit the ball was Brad Pitt?
That's true, right?
Brad Pitt actually did this to you.
Is that true?
I don't want to confirm. Dude, was it, could I ask you a question? It was actors, right? No, no. It was a company, company softball team at the comedy club that I
worked at. So it was in another comic? No, we played the fire department in the area. So it was
the fire fighter? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it was our team, like comics and people who work versus like local like businesses in the area. So they had like, they had the
police. They had the fire, the firefighters was a team. They had another mom and pop shop
of something that we're there. So it was a very small league, but yeah, we were never
sucks. We also was just Joe Rogan. Yeah, that would be awesome. I'll be dead.
Soon now. Get a fucking million. All right, here we go.
Ready? Yeah, my glasses because I can't fucking see.
Okay, man slot 27. Okay, said this wrote said again, said, I have kept,
have you kept in contact with anybody since a GT? Where do you think we're
already? Yeah, we answered it. Yeah, how we meant that, and uh,
we answered it, that person couldn't just.
Uh, what was this, uh, turquoise?
How did you build up the confidence
to poke fun at yourself?
You're stuttering after going through
a traumatic brain injury.
That's actually a nice little serious question.
I think it is a serious question,
but I think it's an obvious answer.
Because I was so afraid to make fun of myself.
And like, even the story you talked about with the doula,
like you just wish she just would have mentioned it
because then it helps break the tension.
Yeah, we wouldn't have laughed this hard though.
Yeah.
She told us we would do my way for it.
Oh my God.
And I was like, honey, what the fuck?
It was hilarious.
I mean, it was great.
I mean, God for two of you, it was so. Me and my wife were great. I mean, God for two of you. It was so me and my one
I mean, there's nothing better than a laugh like a funeral laugh. Yeah, you know
I mean when someone fought at a funeral, they want to fuck she was a beautiful one
See Aunt Peggy fucking tune out
Your wife left she fucking we bored your wife.
Yeah, let the fuck read.
Why is she late?
She's not, yeah, right.
Well, she left you.
She's left.
She left that much downstairs, yeah.
She's gone.
Just Vermont, dude, you gotta let him go.
We brought something up.
That was my time in her life, yeah.
That's fun.
Um, where are you living now, dude?
I live in Los Angeles.
Okay, and then my wife lives in Vermont? I live in Los Angeles. Okay.
And then, uh, and then my wife lives in Vermont.
We do, we do long distance.
Oh, no, she has.
Yeah, there's a world champion cross country skiing.
So she has to be out there.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
She has a career.
Yeah.
That sucks.
That sucks, man.
My wife's dreams are dead.
I killed her, hope, and dreams.
No.
My, yeah, women, she, uh, no, it's funny because she was, um, when we had
the baby, I'm like, do you want to work and go do, she was like the number one esthetician
in Manhattan. She worked at like the biggest spa. She did like Britney Spears and shit like
that and, damn. Yeah, never did me. I never got a fucking, you know, yeah, never got nothing.
I got two facials in my life. She waxed my asshole once. I didn't want the asshole. Just
the cheeks. You went inside for the fucking son
Terrible you have hot wax in your asshole. Yeah, yeah recently. I'm sorry. What yeah, what not for a waxing
But just why you both answer it. Yeah, we did it. I did promote the specialize that if I what I did some stupid shit
Where I was like a fiddle if this if this video gets like I don't know something amount of comments or something like that
Thousand comments. Where did you get your asshole waxed?
It's a place in the neighborhood.
It was my wife.
She was doing side work.
Only famous people.
She did both side work.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was hot, right?
It was hot.
It is, man.
There's no preparation for that.
People think in the ripens hot, it's the lava they pour
on your asshole that's never felt hot,
that type of hot ever.
Purple lava, what color was yours? Purple? Yeah, purple, purple wax on your asshole that's never felt hot, that type of hot ever. Purple lava, what color was yours?
Purple?
Yeah, purple wax on your assholes wax.
And then it kind of settles and they put the cloth on.
It feels good.
Yeah, it is kind of nice.
And then they go one, two and she didn't give me three.
She went one, two, and then it looked like a sticky mouse trap
that a mouse died on.
She showed it to me, she's like, look, I'm like,
what are you?
What if I can see the asshole root hair?
Disgusting.
I'm gonna see my childhood hairs.
