Yeah. sprinklers were big. Sprinklers fire holes. Did y'all is Boston a fire holes? No,
Starting point is 00:07:15 that was against the law. We don't do that. Y'all do a lot of shit in Boston. That's against the law. Yeah, to make money. We're not going to break. We're gonna, we're gonna fuck with the fire department. Half a man not gonna fuck with the fire department. Half a man, my brothers were on the fire department. We don't do that shit. That's a New York thing. I'm not from New York, that's just a poor thing.
Starting point is 00:07:35 It's a hood thing. It's a hood thing, good way of saying that. Yeah, it's a hood thing. Pop that thing off and put a cup on it, right? Or put a can or some shit? Nah, you can get a can. Some people get like these little, what is that? The joint that you drain the spaghetti with?
Starting point is 00:07:53 Like you take one of those. Collander. Collander, yeah, you can get that. No, no, no, it's a, what is it called? I think it is a collander. No, it's a collander, but it's a strainer. I'm straining, that's what I'm called. I'm a strainer.
Starting point is 00:08:03 It's a strainer. Yeah. But you gotta find that's what I'm called. A strainer. It's a strainer. Yeah. But you gotta find the black captain with the key. And most people aren't black captains, they just know where to get those big ass keys from. What the fuck is a black captain? Come on now, you didn't grow up with black captains? No, cause I didn't grow up with black people.
Starting point is 00:08:18 I don't think it's a black thing. It's 100% cultural. So when, You listen to me, there was no, we didn't have block caps in Boston. What the fuck? What is that? What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:08:31 All right, so. Was that one person who had the fire? Yeah. It's usually an old man or old lady. And they're the ones that put together the black parties and all that stuff. You looking at it? In Boston?
Starting point is 00:08:44 In Philly. Not, that's a Philly thing. And in Boston, there's no, Boston doesn't do block captains. You can't trust some Irish Italian kid with a key. His fucking father will sell it. I used to live with a block captain. He was annoying.
Starting point is 00:08:59 That sounds like you molested. I used to live with a block captain. That sounds like some, something a young gay guy would say to an older gay guy. He's like, I'm your block captain. Yo, he's my block captain. He turned my hose on. Mr. Murphy's my block captain.
Starting point is 00:09:15 He has the key. He has the key. Yeah, that's weird, a block captain. So you had to find that person? You had to find that person, but usually you know who they were because they were the ones passing out the free lunch in the summertime. What yeah What are you talking about? Man, so why would we get free lunches because school's not open anymore?
Starting point is 00:09:36 Yeah, and it's called your house. No, but a lot of people can't afford food like a lot of people Yeah, man, this is a cultural thing. This is you lives in a poor neighborhood. Yeah I'm poor shit. I'm gonna tell you this I lived in like white slums like mine nobody had money. Yeah we didn't we you know we didn't have money but we didn't we didn't have any block captain or sandwiches. Yo and that's why y'all so mad because nobody was feeding y'all. That's it. Bosses, people. We got juices, we got sandwiches, and then on a good, like you may get like a PB and J, little turkey sandwich.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Wait a minute, you got drinks too? You got apple juice, orange juice, milk. Milk is the worst in the summertime. You can't drink milk out of a milk carton. Yeah, they give you milk, they give you chocolate milk in the summertime. Chocolate milk is good, but, yeah, we got a hose. No, you drink out the hose too. But we drink out the hose. We didn't get any dude. I don't
Starting point is 00:10:30 remember any of that shit. We didn't get anything like that. Never. Wow. So listen, you grew up, you grew up in Philly, Philly. Yeah. And poor neighborhood, poor neighborhoods because I grew up in foster care. So you're just bouncing around. Can I ask you about that? Because you're in foster care. I think we've thought about it one time. No, we thought about a lot of things. We thought about me wearing my merch.
Starting point is 00:10:57 But the foster care we connected on. No, but didn't we? No, we thought about a foster care thing. Because I said something to you like, that's not true. What are you talking about? No, cause you went through it too. Then you weren't you like group homes and all that? Yeah, no, that's why I want to talk to you about it.
Starting point is 00:11:11 We, like I was a foster, I was a foster homes because you couldn't go directly home from Juvie jail. So you got arrested, you went to court, you went to intake, you went to a place and then they found whatever jail jail you're gonna court, you went to intake, you went to a place, and then they found whatever jail jail you're gonna go to for three to six months, then you'd go there. Hopefully there'd be a bed crunch, and you get released early.
Starting point is 00:11:34 With a bed crunch, like no place to stay. They need the bed. Okay. And this kid's crime was worse than your crime, so the least crime is gonna get let out. Okay. Or who's been there, who has maybe a month left, right? Okay, and then you but you'd go to foster home. Mm-hmm. You know a lot of times you go to a foster home and the foster home then from there They'd transition you back to my my home. Yeah, my mom. Mm-hmm, but you
Starting point is 00:11:57 Didn't have a mom. No, so I had a mom my mom's still alive me and my mom a cool My mom didn't raise me my My mom had a drug problem. My dad was in and out of jail. And my grandmother, I have a young grandma. My grandma was like still active and stuff. Like, you know? So my grandmother thought it was a good idea to be like, well until my daughter gets her life together,
Starting point is 00:12:20 I'm gonna just put the kids in foster care. And we went in at like six, seven, and I didn't get out until like 21 Why didn't your grandmother just take care of you cuz she young don't got time for that shit. I Mean that's that's her talking or you that's me talking But I think based on the little bits and pieces that I put together from her always yelling and shit when I would like Go visit. I think it was that. I think it was just, she thought it would be
Starting point is 00:12:48 a short amount of time and that my mom would get her life together or we would get placed in a better home and that never happened. Did that kill you? What you mean? I'm saying did that fuck you up? Like did that hurt? I'm sure I fucked up from it.
Starting point is 00:13:03 No, back then did it make you go, what the fuck, my, my grandmother doesn't want me? Nah, too young to even cope with it. So here's the, here's the thing. My, when I, I think I went into foster care at like six, seven. Yeah. But my mom didn't have like a stable place to live.
Starting point is 00:13:21 She was on the run from my dad cause he was abusive and stuff like that. So we would be, we would like sleep over over random friends houses and stuff like that thing. She was like, oh, this is your cousin. And then we like sleeping in the bed with them like head to foot or sleeping in the floor and stuff. So I was used to that constant moving. I was used to getting up, going to school, coming home and then going to somebody else because I was sleeping. You were used to not having a home. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:45 So when I got in the foster care, it was just like business as usual. But I just wasn't around my mom. But have you ever, like you say, yeah. Yeah. You say it like that. Yeah. But that breaks my heart when I hear that.
Starting point is 00:14:00 But it doesn't mean. I mean, look, at a time it broke my heart. But now I'm grown one way then Yeah, I think I think 16 was like the last time where I was like oh this isn't gonna I'm the the happy ending of foster care because that's what's supposed to happen like when I hit 16 at good behavior My mom she I got her life together a little bit. She had got remarried and she got a house and my two sisters went to live with her and then I was the last one to make their decision.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Right? Are they younger than you? Yeah, they're younger than me. Okay, so were you guys separated? We never lived together until... So even your sisters, they took your siblings away. So you were alone. Now that house they put you in,
Starting point is 00:14:45 were you there one place for the whole time? No, I bounced around a lot. I was in like, all together, I think I was in like 14 places and that's including group homes, foster homes and kinship care, which is just foster care, but with a family member. Is that like a block bouncer?
Starting point is 00:15:05 What's his name? What do you mean? What's that this? Like, what's the last thing again? What was he last thing again? It's kinship care. Kinship care? Kinship, because you know, if somebody's related to you,
Starting point is 00:15:15 they're akin to you. So they call it kinship care. Was it somebody you related to? Yeah, and they're the worst, because when they know you got money, so when you're in foster care, they get a stipend for the government, from the government to cover the costs of you,
Starting point is 00:15:29 like buying your food and your clothes. But a lot of people don't use that money to buy the clothes and shit like that. They use it for themselves and then go, I'm gonna use my government assistance or whatever and I'm gonna try to stretch what I already have and then keep this money for myself. And I feel like family was the worst when it came to that. to stretch what I already have and keep this money for myself.
Starting point is 00:15:45 And I feel like family was the worst when it came to that. Because that's all they wanted. They would be like, ooh, you get to stay with me. And then when they found out the money ain't money in the way they wanted, they were like, you got to go. I had to drop me off. She told me I was going to come home for the summer and she would pick me back up because she wanted me to spend time
Starting point is 00:16:06 with my Philly folk and shit. And then she dropped me off for the summer and never picked me back up. And then I went back into the false-secure system. Did that crush you? Nah, cause I hated him. But that didn't hurt your feelings. Everything hurt your feelings, but you gotta be tough.
Starting point is 00:16:22 You gotta get over it, you know what I mean? You don't have to be tough right now. You're not gonna, what are you trying to make me cry? Trying to get some black tears for February? You don't even know. Do you know how much those will work? Black tears on February, that's a lot. That's a lot.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Yo, we can go viral if I cry. Dude, if you cry right now? Yo, let's go. Alright. Yo, man, did that hurt? Listen, did that hurt your feelings? Yeah, you know, because it's just a feeling of not being one at Nile.
Starting point is 00:16:50 You're not going to get me to cry. But yeah, it should hurt your feelings. But when you're in foster care and you're surrounded by other kids that are going through the same thing, you kind of just learn to be like, all right, this is just how some people live. And I was with, like even in foster care, I would be with people who had their biological kids, but even their biological kids came from like a broken home, like their dad isn't
Starting point is 00:17:18 around, the mom has to do all the work and all that shit. So to me, it just felt like the norm. It was like, oh, everybody got problems. Yeah, I mean, I remember being in it, I remember the money was a factor. The food they gave you was very, you know, generic and cheap as shit they could give you, you know? And you didn't get much of it.
Starting point is 00:17:42 I remember that. I remember there was no seconds. It dependsended on what group home I was in. Some group homes, they let you go in. No, I foster home. It was over. And they had their kids, there was a couple that had their kids and their kids could do no wrong. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:58 And I was, you know. And then there was one where there was another foster kid but he was kind of a dick. Yeah. And I remember he had Playboy Channel? We were in bunk beds. How'd he get the Playboy Channel? Paid for it.
Starting point is 00:18:12 This little, when I showed up, this guy was like a regular, like he was like a regular white kid. Yeah. Like, he seemed like a rich white kid. Okay. And, um, I don't know why he was there. I don't know what the hell he did. I was there because of crime, and I was transitioning out why he was there. I don't know what the hell he did. I was there because of crime and I was transitioning out of jails.
Starting point is 00:18:26 So I had to go here for long term because I couldn't go back to my mom's house. And I remember it was in this little tiny house. It was a little blue house behind houses. They go, so you go into the driveway and then there was another little tiny house in the back. And I remember going there and it was this big redheaded, fucking strong Boston guy and this chubby little,
Starting point is 00:18:51 fucking angry short-haired Boston woman. And they had this little daughter and this kid. But he was like, he seemed like a snobby rich kid. He played hockey and he was like there for a while and he got his, he was like one of the best foster kids, you know what I mean? Yeah. And I remember he had- he worked and he got Playboy. Channel. How old was he?
Starting point is 00:19:12 He had his own cable and he got Playboy. He was my age. How old were you? Maybe a little- maybe a year older than me or something. 15? Oh wow. Something like that, 14, 15? He's smart though.
Starting point is 00:19:23 Huh? He's smart. He was 14. I was 14. Yeah, he was smart though. Huh? He's smart. I was 14. Yeah, he was smart, but he was kind of a twat. You know what I mean? Like, you know, Lenny Marcus being your foster roommate.
Starting point is 00:19:33 It's my cable. Don't touch my lights, you know what I mean? I love many, but I want to live in a bunk bed with that asshole. And I remember he caught me watching a stupid thing. What was he watching? Playboy, I don don't know some stupid lady chatter Lee shit cuz playboys never that you think it's not that It's not it's not like I should and I was trying to jerk off to it and he's like were you using my fucking? But I remember I remember not none of this shit hit me dude until recently
Starting point is 00:20:03 Yeah, none of this stuff. You know when it hit me when I had a kid. Yeah, is when I was like I couldn't imagine my son Being in a foster home. Yeah, I couldn't imagine Dropping him off and walking away. I couldn't imagine my kid my my son Going to bed at night, hungry, and not knowing where he was going to be the next day at that age and having to just deal with it. And I couldn't imagine it. You know, that's when it hit me that I went through traumatic shit. It's like I went through war. That's war hit me that I went through traumatic shit.
Starting point is 00:20:45 It's like I went through war. That's war, dude. You went through war. I went through war and I made at 16, I don't know what it was. I was just like, I'm not going to be a victim of the system or my situation. I'm going to be a product of it. Because I was around people who already did, was just complaining about like how fucked up their life was and all that stuff.
Starting point is 00:21:09 And they just kept getting in trouble and stuff like that. And I see myself going down that route, but something in me was just like, nah dog, like you can't do that. You have a kid, right? I don't have no kid. I just got a wife and- You got a wife.
Starting point is 00:21:23 But we're trying to have a kid. We should have a kid, right? I don't have no kid. I just got a wife and- You got a wife. We're trying to have a kid. We should have a kid by like 2024, in the end of 2024 or 2025 or some shit. When you have that kid, man, she gonna fucking, it's gonna fuck you up. But even when I had my niece, I said my niece, but even when, so my sister lives with me when I got my own place,
Starting point is 00:21:41 and when my niece was born, they lived with me, and that's when I was like, damn, you know, like nobody in my family could have did this for us. Nobody, you know. Wait till you have your kid and you're bringing your kid to school and you're going to his thing, his little thing and then you're going to his baseball or basketball and then when he comes home and he runs up and he's like dad and he's showing you his little test and blah blah Dude, it's gonna fuck you up. I know it's all gonna tumble back bro. Does it make you stronger at least it makes me stronger
Starting point is 00:22:14 but It's like You know like I look at these comics You know Like I feel like I have two lives that I'm living. I'm living a life trying to become successful, trying to stay relevant in the business. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:22:34 We always gotta keep trying, grabbing that next rung and not look around you. And then I have this other life that I'm living where I'm trying to repair all the bullshit that happened to me. Yeah. Because I have... You know, I snap. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:50 Because it's a, you know, as soon as somebody's fucking not respecting me, as soon as something's happening, I'm like, fucking... I turn into that... They're red. I turn into that dude, you ain't fucking, you ain't getting me, bitch. Yeah. You ain't getting me. You know, because that's back in the day... You ain't fucking, you ain't getting me, bitch. You ain't getting me.
Starting point is 00:23:07 You know, because that's back in the day at a young age, people were getting us. People were fucking with us. And I cut that empathy off. I cut that human existence. When I got the kid and attached that shit back into me and it's like, oh God. You're like, shit, I don't want this piece back.
Starting point is 00:23:26 Dude, my kid's 10. I was in- And you got a nice kid, I'm not your kid. Yeah, he's a great kid. And I look at that and I'm like, dude, when I was his age, I started drinking. I was smoking. You was drinking and smoking at 10?
Starting point is 00:23:39 Yeah. Damn. You know? No, I wasn't. But yeah, do you drink at all? Because you seem like a... I'm not straight edge, but I definitely... I don't like drinking.
Starting point is 00:23:51 I rather smoke. I've drank before, but I drink more so of like... If my wife is having drinks and usually she'll do this thing where she'll be like, I don't want it no more and then I'll just down it because I don't like wasting. Yeah. But I don't like drinking because it should just make you sweat and fucking... You just down it, because I don't like wasting. Yeah.

What are you talking about, Philly is 16., Philly ain't even on this. What are you talking about? Philly is 16. Dude, 16 ain't the top 10. I know, but New York ain't even in the top 10, and Philly is above New York.
Starting point is 00:31:32 Bronx is four. Yeah, but Bronx is separate. You got two-minute zoos. Nah, dude. You got the Bronx Zoo, then you got Central Park. No, stop, stop. Bronx Zoo is done. Central Park is just an amusement thing. The Bronx Zoo is the zoo of New York. Is it dude?
Starting point is 00:31:49 It's the Bronx fucking zoo man. They they it's the number one I never went to the Diego Zoo number one, right? Yeah, yeah, and San Diego zoo is no joke, dude Okay, so because of the weather, you know the Bronx who you know half this shit gets cold in the winter and they got a fucking tuck it away. Or they put North Faces on them. The jacket. I got it. You didn't laugh in mine. I was gonna laugh at yours. Well even now. So we can start fresh. How long you been married man? I've been married five years. Really? Yeah. How's it going with? It's going good. But you know that childhood trauma do come up. It comes up.
Starting point is 00:32:27 Yeah, hell yeah. And the relationship, right? Mm-hmm. Because my wife comes from a completely different background. She got two parents, they love each other, and they spent time with her and their kids and stuff like that. And that's complete opposite of my upbringing. So even my bad, no homo.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Ha ha ha. Ha ha ha. It's complete opposite of my upbringing. Even my bad, no homo. Like even my mom, my wife sees my family's relationships and she's like, yo, how can a mom talk to their daughter like that? So like we grew up in this fucking- So you have friends with your mom now? Yeah. Okay, is she all right? My mom's cool.
Starting point is 00:33:03 What do you mean, like is she all right? She's clean, she's got a mom's cool. What do you mean? Like is she all right? She's clean She got her own apartment. We just don't have that mother-son relationship because it was you never had it Yeah, yeah, and it's weird because I I was a mama's boy, but then looking back I was like that's dumb It was dumb for me to mama be a mama's boy because I would only see my mom like Three days out of a month. So then the rest of the time I'm just sitting alone. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:31 Because you wanted your mom. Yeah. That's why you were mama's. And then at 16, I was like, I'll never have her. She'll never be my mom in the way that I desire. And I was just like, yeah. Yeah. I said that. Oh, I've said this a bunch of times.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Me and my mom used to fight all the time until one day she just whispered in the phone, she goes, Bobby, when do you realize I'm never gonna change? And I was like, oh shit. I was like, I'm out. You're right, I gotta go change. You're right, so we got along ever since.
Starting point is 00:34:03 You know what I mean? And that's the best, cause then it's like, I don't, you know, for a while I was faking the funk, I'll get Mother's Day cards and all these celebrations, but I'm like, those are for you. That's not really for me, right? Because if you do something for your mom on Mother's Day, it's to be like, you know, this is how I express my love, but I was just more so doing it because I'm like, it's Mother's Day, I don't want you to feel left out or feel bad. So I was doing all these things to kind of make sure she
Starting point is 00:34:29 didn't feel like she was missing out on a mother experience. Yeah. So you, you're bringing your childhood into this relationship with your wife? Yeah. Well, no, because, you know, my wife was cool. So you hit her now. She was okay with that. You know, elbow dropper and shit. You can't hit a Colombian chick. I mean, you can put them in a soup pack. They'll cut your stinker off.
Starting point is 00:34:53 They'll grab your stinker in the middle of the night and just snip it off. You'll wake up being on a key chain. I'm like, man, where my shit? No, it's funny because, yeah, this, now you're married, so now you see how a relationship should work. And you realize, oh, I got this stuff. Money, money was tough for me at the beginning with my wife, because I was like, money was so, I was so desperate, I never had it. So when I started to get it and then I had to share it with this, what the fuck? I got crazy. And you know, when we had the kid, I remember
Starting point is 00:35:35 my therapist told me, he was like, you don't get a dad. You are the dad. You don't get parents, dude. You were fucked up. You were out there. You're the parent. Go be the parent. Go do it. And that helped me out a lot. Yeah, because I was always struggling to get the thing I never had. I was always trying to get that. And you'll never get it. You can't. We missed out. We missed out.
Starting point is 00:35:59 But also, I know it's going to sound corny, but everything you need, you already have. And it's just more of an acceptance. You know? Yep. Like I didn't have a mom, but I definitely had people in my life who cared at me at very important times when I needed it. That's what I said.
Starting point is 00:36:17 You know what I mean? And that's, you know? When you needed it, I had the same thing. I always tell people I had 10 dads. I go through all these. I mean, but if you tell, that kind of sounds weird. Either your mom's not a loose. No, yeah, they're just banging my mom and leaving.
Starting point is 00:36:31 I'm sorry, mom. She listens. No, but I had, you know, there's my my my, you know, biological dad. I had the fucking evil stepfather piece of shit. Then I had the really great stepdad that stepped in there. I had my five uncles. I had my sponsor, Dick Marcott, who was there. I had Ken Lazarus, my Jewish foster father from 16 to 18, 19, something like that, who stepped in. I had all these dads that were stepped in at these points when I needed them.
Starting point is 00:37:07 And then when I had the kid, I had to go be that dad. So I realized as I'm growing with this kid 10 years now, I took stuff from all those guys. My uncle Tommy, who's smart, you know what I mean? Funny, he was so funny. My uncle David, who's smart, you know what I mean? Funny. He was so funny. My uncle David, who's tough, you know, could fight and, you know, kind of man up a little bit and, you know, taught me how to make a bow and arrow. My uncle Jimmy, who taught me how to show up for work and work hard. My uncle Sean, who told me how to be social and cool and fun.
Starting point is 00:37:39 You know, my uncle Michael was cool with the women and, you know, I took all these little things from them to add to me. And then Ken Laz taught me how to be emotional. And he was the first guy to hug me and tell me he loves me. And I was like, what are you, gay? You know that? He was like, oh, look at all of me. Dude, emotions for me, man.
Starting point is 00:38:00 I remember when I cut my emotions off, I was 13. And I got the shit kicked out of me by these guys. Three, it was like four men beat the shit out of me and my friend Frankie at like midnight in the projects and some of them were trying to get weed. And we bought it from them and then they followed us up there and they were like, yo, give us some weed. And we said, no, they kicked the fuck out of us.
Starting point is 00:38:20 I'm like, I just bought it from you. Yeah. And I remember when we were walking away and blood had to toll Frankie's bleeding internally, his bought it from you. Yeah. And I remember when we were walking away, I'm blood-hate to tell Frank, he's bleeding internally, his kidney or some shit. Damn. But I was like, man, I was so happy. Why?
Starting point is 00:38:32 Because I didn't cry. Man. Isn't that fucked up though? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Because that's like a part of being a man, like getting hurt and not letting it out,
Starting point is 00:38:42 not letting the world see it. It's not yeah it's part of being a man is being able to feel that emotion and let it out see but I didn't grow up that way cuz I didn't either yeah that's why it was such a badge of honor to me I remember saying Frankie I didn't cry he's like what I'm like I didn't cry to the blood head to toe I didn't cry. He's like, what? I'm like, I didn't cry, dude. I'm blood head to toe. I didn't cry. He's a good for you, kid. Like, he was like proud of me. Like, yeah, you can take an ass whooping.
Starting point is 00:39:10 I can take an ass whooping. It was my first ass whooping I took without fucking crying like a baby. And it was an ass whooping. And I was so proud of myself. And it took me, I'm still undoing that. I'm still undoing that shit. You know? So, it sucks. I'm still undoing that. I'm still undoing that shit. So it sucks. That sucks that we chopped that part of us.
Starting point is 00:39:30 Did you ever have that thing where you killed that in your side yourself? Yeah, man. Countless times and the thing is, like being married, you have to dig that part up again. Cause I would see that. I would be like, my wife would do something or she'd be happy about something.
Starting point is 00:39:47 And then I just be like, all right, cool. And she'd be like, you're not, you know, like, you know, you don't seem excited. And I'm like, I don't get that emotion. I only got like anger and jokes. Yeah, I got first gear, what's up? And then six, I'll murder you fucking you dead. That's it. Yeah. So I had to learn how to operate that middle gear
Starting point is 00:40:07 But I went through something similar where I got jumped by my two foster dads what they beat that shit out of me Because they were being assholes They're being assholes and I always talk back I didn't care how big you were because I in group homes You know this in group homes staff are allowed to put their hands on you in certain ways, like they can restrain you and stuff. So when you when you grow up tussling with adults and like slipping out the chicken wing. You use the word tussle. Tussle. One of my favorite words. And I haven't used it in nine years. I haven't I'm so glad you brought Tussle.
Starting point is 00:40:46 Because that's what it was. I did a lot of Tussle. I love a nice Tussle. Yeah, just a lot of fucking just moving. You're going. A Tussle's not a fight. And so you're just moving your bodies around, and just like two bears just pushing each other.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Yeah. And I had to do that. Tussling. So I wasn't afraid of men. Yeah. And at a very young age, I wasn't afraid of authority, and I would always talk back and say things like,
Starting point is 00:41:13 man, get the fuck out of here. Like, you know Mike Recky Owens joke where he talks about, like, ah, step. I was that kid once upon a time where I'm talking to grown men. I'm saying, I'm threatening grown ass men as if they can't hurt me. And some people retaliate it. You two uncles beat the shit out of you.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Wow, how'd that feel? Yeah, I mean, I didn't cry. What's up? That's it, that's it. They beat my ass, but I did not cry. God damn it, dude. Here's a problem with when you, I'm gonna tell you this, when you open up those floodgates,
Starting point is 00:41:46 which I have, I'm fucked. Which you mean crying? I do, I cry at everything. Man. Dude, I cry. I be trying to. I cry, dude, when you have the kid. When the kid comes, and my kid don't have emotions,
Starting point is 00:42:01 like he has emotions like his mom. She don't, you know what I mean? Like we're at the movies, at this stupid movie, this cartoon, and the mom gets cancer in the front. And then she goes in the beginning. I'm like, fucking, I'm like, what is the mom? And the and my son's like, dad, you got to stop. And he's literally covering my eyes. She's like, you can't watch this part. You can't. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:42:27 Max, the mom's gotta go and he I'm like, and he's like, my eye, dad, relax. He's he's he's that makes me want a kid that you're the but yeah, that makes me want a kid. Oh my God, I have somebody. That's cool. Oh, dude. Yeah, because most people make being a father seem like it's just like this Just thing you just you just can't sleep. You're always in this mode of protect and teaching and shit But you're like, no, it seems fun crying in a movie and your son's like stop
Starting point is 00:42:59 Crying in my amber He I mean every time there's a now hamming him and my wife every time there's a now him and him and my wife, every time there's a part of a show or a movie where it's that thing, they both like, look at me. Yeah, I can feel him looking at me like, come on, bitch. Come on, bitch. Come on. Where's those tears coming out? You know you want to cry. You don't know my childhood. Yeah, I would love to cry. Dude, you will. I'm telling you.
Starting point is 00:43:25 Can't wait. You will. When you have that kid and that kid's... I feel like this interaction makes me feel like I'm gonna have a kid by next year. I'm telling you, people think it's the best thing I ever did. But like I said, I live two lives. That part of me that was like, I got to make it. I got to be the next motherfucker. I got to play this and I got to do that.
Starting point is 00:43:52 And I'm going to be, I'm the shit. That's gone. It's gone. It's different now. What's the difference? The difference now is, I have to put a lot of time over here into this. Before all my time was over here on this shit. This stuff right here, I got to go, I'll be I'll be back, I got to leave, I would leave for weeks and months. I'll be and my wife was like, okay, I just went. Now it's like, I want to go home. Yeah, I can't wait to go home. I'll go home tonight. My kid will probably be in the
Starting point is 00:44:24 bed. I'll jump in. He My kid will probably be in the bed. I'll jump in. He'll roll over and fucking give me a hug and I'll tell him, how was your night? And we chat now. We chat like fucking dudes. I wake up in the morning. We watch fucking stupid YouTube channels together and then he gets up and gets ready. Yeah. I mean, look, it sucks. That sounds dope. I mean, it don't sound like it sucks. It sounds fun. It don't suck. It's hard. Yeah. I say that. It's easy to be a parent. It's hard to be a good one. Yeah. Because, that sounds dope. I mean, it don't sound like it sucks. It sounds fun. It don't suck. It's hard. I'd say that it's easy to be a parent. It's hard to be a good one.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Because, you know, like today, like, because I have all my shit. So when he does something disrespectful, I'm, you know, that's six, you don't fucking, who do you, that comes out. You do that though? Or you do a version of that?
Starting point is 00:45:00 I do a version of it. It ain't like I would do it to you if I had to fight you just to scare you out of it because you're a fucking big ass motherfucker. But it's a version of it. It ain't like I would do it to you if I had to fight you just to scare you out of it because you're a fucking big ass motherfucker. But it's a version of that. But he actually told me, he actually said, hey man, you don't need to yell like that.
Starting point is 00:45:15 And I was like, what? He's like, dad, I get it. I screwed up. I messed up. I shouldn't have said that, but you don't need to get crazy. I'm like, all right, I'm cool with that. Yo.
Starting point is 00:45:27 So, yeah. That's a mature kid right there. It's a mature kid. Are you ever gonna have another one? No, no, her badge is done. Yeah. I ain't risking that shit. I love my son.

I left him up, he's in a, go get him. that we all have to take care of. You know what I mean? Where'd you leave your brother? I left him, he's in a whip, go get him. Fuck. Is this a bit?

Starting point is 00:46:22 You showed a special in Kenya. Well, yeah, it wasn't supposed to. So I went to Kenya and then they were like, yo, I went to Kenya to- Why? Because, man, I just like doing comedy and doing the road, right? And my agents always send me- that's the road. That's not the road. Yo, it's better than going in some fucking sticks in America that I'm always going to. That's the motherland. Yo, I loved it. Okay, so tell me, because I've
Starting point is 00:46:50 never been I think of Kenya. I think of coming to America, like Wakanda. I think of a lot of colorful shit. Maybe a guy with a tiger on his shoulder and a diamond in its mouth. Yo, you know, I'm saying so I don't think stand up comedy. I just, I'm not even. I felt the same thing. I was nervous. So when he asked, so what happened was usually what I do.

It was that it wasn't Emirates. What's the Qatar? Oh really? Yeah, okay? So tell me school me so on So when you think Africa, I think every when you think Africa we think fucking war turn war torn Third war everybody's super poor, but there's countries within Africa that are

They go, yo, ring your little bell and then we'll come bring the hot water and we'll pour it in your bucket and then you can take a shower, right? But at night, you had to lock your tent cause the monkeys will get in and unzip your shit
Starting point is 00:58:37 and fuck your shit up. And I thought they was lying until we heard a monkey but if things start like pulling the lock. Yeah, they lock you in your tent. And you have to ring a bell for them to come get you out. Monkeys are no joke. Monkeys are no joke. People think monkeys are cute, but they'll throw shit at you.
Starting point is 00:58:52 They'll take your phone, they'll pull your hair, they'll steal your kid. I saw a monkey take that whiskey, spun the cap off and started drinking it. Oh shit, on the internet in real life. What you mean? Spun the cap off and started drinking it. Oh, shit. And on the internet and real life. The guy held a fifth of whiskey out on the internet. Monkey grabbed it, went like this with the cap.
Starting point is 00:59:12 Boom, boom, boom. Spend it up. Go, go, go, go, go. That's the coolest monkey ever. That's a badass monkey. That's a badass monkey. So did you, were they aligned? Like did you, were you open air?
Starting point is 00:59:23 Open air. Wow. I got pictures and stuff. I'll show you afterwards. And videos, open air, we're in them. So the Mara is just this big conservation. Like, you can't touch it, right? They can't touch it or nothing. And I was asking, I'm like,
Starting point is 00:59:36 but what if like an animal was getting attacked by another animal? They're like, that's just nature. You gotta let them shit, run this course. But they can't interfere or anything. We seen a hyena. we seen a hyena get jumped by another pack of hyenas for trying to eat a baby hyena. Yeah, and I called it.
Starting point is 00:59:53 I was like, because we were chilling in this one spot for like 30 minutes and I'm like, all right, this don't feel right. There's a hyena over there that just keeps circling us. And they're like, oh, don't worry, Asana, Asana, which means like, just like, oh, don't worry, everything is everything or some shit like that.
Starting point is 01:00:11 And I'm like, nah, this motherfucker is like up to something. And like two minutes later over here, it's rah, rah, rah, rah. And we see the little baby hyena run off and then all these other hyenas just start biting and fucking this hyena up to the point where it pissed itself and then all these other hyenas just start biting and fucking this one hyena up to the point where it pissed itself and then it ran off. Really?
Starting point is 01:00:30 I seen a, we seen a, what is it, a leopard, drag a kazelle up in the tree and you can hear it ripping the meat off and crunching the bones and then throwing the scraps down for his cubs to eat. But we had to wait an hour for that shit. Who cares? Yeah, I saw that. You saw real life. Seem real life.
Starting point is 01:00:52 We seen lions. We were we were this close. Where that camera is, we were this close to lions. Stop. And I'm like, you know, in a cage, though, right? No, they just laying down. OK, aren't they worried that the thing will come jump up and get hungry? I was worried, but the people we were with were like, don't worry, they're not worried about us. And I'm like, they are though.
Starting point is 01:01:13 We making so much noise. I got on so much cologne. I smell delicious. It'll probably be like a fruit roll up for them. I'd be shitting my pants. Yo, it was scary. It was beautiful at the same time because on the way, we had to get back before the sun went completely down because a lot of animals hunt at night. Like lions and stuff hunt at night.
Starting point is 01:01:38 And that was the thing. They were like, oh, like during the day they'll sleep and that's why they're not really like active and you can like walk up on them. So let me ask you a question. They're counting on these things to be lazy? Yeah absolutely and that's why they locked you in your tent. Bedtime was eight right? You ate dinner at eight o'clock so yeah you got back so it was an all-day thing. We woke up at six in the morning then you have your breakfast and then they drive you out into the morrow, and then you have lunch out there.
Starting point is 01:02:08 No, you have a... We had a tea breakfast at the camp, then they drive you out and we have actual breakfast, like pancakes and sausages and shit, and that was scary, because they set up a table for you in the middle of the morrow, and I just leaned against the truck the whole time. Like I'm leaning against the truck, my wife was like,
Starting point is 01:02:27 babe, come, like, see, it's fine. And I'm like, no, I'm eating my food standing up. I was eating my shit standing up, like, yeah, looking around. So then we go, you drive around, you see all these animals and then you come back for lunch, and then you take a break, and then they send you back out there because there are some animals that were probably asleep
Starting point is 01:02:50 and stuff like that that are now out. So then you go back, you have dinner, and then they drive you back before it gets dark. And when it gets dark, oh, you hear shit. You hear it like the monkeys running across the thing. You hear it like we were near the hyena den. We didn't realize how close we were to the hyena den until we saw him fighting.
Starting point is 01:03:13 When we saw him fighting and then I was like, oh, we gotta get out of here. And then we drove. I was like, yo, that's right here. And you're camped right there. And we're camped right there. And you paid to do that. And we've, I didn't pay.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Eric paid. It was a gift. Was it again? And I know it was, Eric paid, it was a gift. Was it a gift? And I know it was expensive, cause. Dude, how much is that? It was like $3,000 a night. Fuck you. And old people, and I didn't even know it was expensive
Starting point is 01:03:35 until all these, me and my wife were the youngest people there and it was just like all these senior citizens like, yo, we saved up for this. How did you get here? How did you find out? All these white people? All these white people. How did you afford this? I could do, and he said that. And then I was like, oh, my always saved up for this. How did you get here? How did you find out? All these white people? All these white people. How did you afford this?
Starting point is 01:03:46 I could, and he said that. And then I was like, oh, my wife speaks up for me, cause I'll just like, oh, you know, I'm just chilling, like I'll navigate my way out of it. But she was like, oh, you know, he's here for shows and they gifted it. Oh, it must be some funny jokes. You telling if this is what they give you.
Starting point is 01:04:03 Go ahead, let me hear some jokes. And it just turns into that shit. Yeah, and then you're gonna pray that a fucking lion gets hungry. Oh, I hope you fucking just get eaten. That's great that it's all old white people. You know you're getting away. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:13 I'll put the shit out of a little person. Push the fucking blue head right in front of a line. But you know, take one bite and go, oh, I taste all that metamucil and medicine. It's not like, tastes like mothballs and pussy. Here's some more fun facts ready.

I've been religious my whole life, but when I got sober is when I found,
Starting point is 01:13:27 because AA is a, it's a... It's a cult. What? No, it's not a cult. It's not a cult? AA's not a cult? Here's why it's not a cult. Why?
Starting point is 01:13:38 Because they make you replace your worship of drugs and alcohol with Jesus. No, no, no, no, no, no. Jesus has nothing to do with AA. So why is everybody who leaves AA so religious? It's whatever you, the reason why AA works and it's worked forever, they don't promote it. You're not supposed to talk about it.
Starting point is 01:14:00 They don't fight club. It's just, they call it attraction rather than promotion. OK. Look, I'm here for me Yeah, if you want to have what I have I can show you what I do, but I ain't giving it to you You got to get it Number two, it's a God of your understanding. Whatever the fuck you want to believe in Whatever you want a Jewish God Catholic God you want Allah you want a light bulb you want Whatever you want to believe in you can believe it in but you have to believe in something other than yourself. Yes. You
Starting point is 01:14:27 can't be like I got it because you don't because you haven't. So it's kind of it's I think what it is up I look at religion not as religion but as a positive perspective on life. So I believe like every religion is that it's just hey man don't fuck your neighbor's wife. Yeah. Hey, don't hurt anybody Help people love people care for people try not to be mean to people do for others That's all every religion at its base is trying to do and then but then why do religions have so like Religions we have religious wars and they have soldiers and shit like that. So to me, that is what makes me get off religion. When I was younger, it just felt like cult
Starting point is 01:15:13 thing and I'm like, yo, they're telling you that church is in your heart. So why do I have to come here and give you money and be around the people who judge me and all that stuff? You know, you can just just you can have it at your house. Yeah, it's a spiritual state of mind that you get into. You I know guys that, you know, don't believe in any religion. Most of the people I know don't believe don't believe in religion. That's like a lot that that's a lot of people are like that now. Yeah, but I believe you still need some type of spirituality because if you're
Starting point is 01:15:44 just if you're the motherfucker, then you're God, then I'm out. I mean, I'm not God, but you can be you are your God, you have the ability to create. I fart. You have the ability to destroy. I fart at bats in uncomfortable situations. I'm pretty sure God doesn't do that. I'm pretty sure God, that's why the nigga wear the dress. My God is a nigga. I can call God a nigga. Listen, I'm not going to fight that, but I'm pretty sure your God, unless your God is like DMX. Yo, what you need?
Starting point is 01:16:22 What you need? I'm here for you, dawg. You know what I'm saying? I think, and I don't care, here's the thing people like, well I don't believe it. I don't care, that's great man. Don't believe in, do not believe in any, believe that's a belief. You don't believe, that's your belief. So do that.
Starting point is 01:16:40 I hate people who think religion, because most people that go to religion are just looking for something positive to be a part of. Yeah. See it. But did you grow up in churches? I grew up in Catholic church, Irish Catholic. All right, see I didn't grow up in Catholic. I went to Catholic camp and that's just scary.
Starting point is 01:16:59 Yeah, that's terrifying. Yeah, but I grew up in churches and it's not what you say. It wasn't like that. It was, it was a lot of looking down and, and, and talking about people and judgment and stuff. And, and I'm like, yeah, people came to do that. Cause feeling golly made them feel like they were better than everyone else.
Starting point is 01:17:23 Yeah. No, I mean, feeling blessed and highly favored in all that shit. Yeah, that's not the religion. The reason why I like AA2 is because it's really trying to let go of your ego. That's a main part of it. And there's these steps that you take where it's like,
Starting point is 01:17:41 okay, admit that you need help, number one. And then admit what the problem is and then let go. And then go through all the stuff that you got and put it down and then go tell somebody that shit. So you're not burdened. And then you got to go and figure out your little things that you do that you continue to do that you don't want to let go of. And try to let go of those. Just try. Ask for help.
Starting point is 01:18:10 Whatever it is. Try to let go of those things. And then, you know what? When you fuck up, admit it and just go say sorry. Just admit it. I fucked up. I just, at the end of the day, I'm gonna, I gotta take care of this. Because relationships with people are the thing that fucks all of us up. It's that relationship with somebody that you said something or they said something or you
Starting point is 01:18:35 did something and now you have it here and you're resentment and justified, resentment and justified anger and then you take it with you and then that goes over to here and then that person has something from them, that religion, and then once you say, hey, I fucked up, I'm sorry, blah, blah, blah, it's gone. And you can have a peaceful day, a serene day. And then it's, you know, give it to others, help somebody else. And try to do all these things is what that program is.
Starting point is 01:19:04 And you don't have to be it, you don't have to spend money on it, you don't have to, they don't give a fuck if you show up. Well, AA is free? AA is 100% free. So the sponsors don't get paid? Nobody gets paid. That sucks.
Starting point is 01:19:16 What? All that. I thought I had you. No. All that. I lived with foster parents that were in AA. They still did they shit They still smoke a drink. I think they were just going to check it. That's that's called LA sober
Starting point is 01:19:31 That's a la sober there. I don't drink, but I'm smoking fun. We're doing Adderall fucking killing it All right, dude, I can't believe it was a great episode dude.

So they were going to sell your jokes. Pretty much.
Starting point is 01:20:42 Yeah, you can't do nothing about that. Yeah, because they got a bunch of fake Louis Vuitton's and they got Gucci and right. And they got monkey belts and they'll sell your stupid. Yeah, they'll probably I'll probably see my special on the blanket the next time I go there next to some monkey. How about buy your shit time square next to a Louis Vuitton belt. So I asked the guy like a year had passed and like I was just sitting there and I wanted to start building my YouTube. So I was like, hey, do you have that footage from the show?
Starting point is 01:21:13 And he's like, yeah. So he sent me it and then I sent it to Keith and I was like, can I do anything with this? He's like, yeah. Who's Keith? Keith Robinson. I was like, I only call Keith Keith. Who is it? Who's that?

Starting point is 01:22:01 Yeah. Don't say it. Here's the thing. I think that special, I was at the table. It was great. He's probably gonna win something for that. He bet it, and if he don't, they're racist. See, I can't, I hate it. Come on, it's so easy to do it. I know, but.
Starting point is 01:22:12 It's so easy to bring up race when you don't get what you want. It never used to work on us. It frightens me every time I hear it now. You're racist, I'm like, I'm like, what'd I do? I left the black guy in before me. So, all right, so this guy, Keith sees it. So Keith sees it, and then I'm like, what do I do? I left the black guy in before me. So all right, so this guy you have Keith sees it. So Keith sees it. And then I'm like, oh, I think what should I do it? And he's like, put it out dummy. It's a 20 minute special. You're in Africa and you're doing your material in Africa. So
Starting point is 01:22:38 I was like, all right. So I sent it back to him and I asked him if they can like add some effects and stuff and make it look better. And they did a really good job. What'd they do? They did. They, man, did you, you seen it at all? The camera quality is good. No, okay.
