I didn't leave my apartment or my hotel room for fucking a week and a half And I just played war zone and then I acted as well Mm-hmm, but um, I have to say something about this next guest. I Saw a photo of his father It's a good start. That's a good start on Instagram and I was confused. I was confused

I was looking at him when I was going is Jeremiah's mother a pelican Because the father's nose is like a button, right? Oh like small.

Okay The intro I wanted to start with is a very good one and a very positive one and I have to say this You remind me of a Young like what I felt about Melissa via senior or I felt about Leslie Jones in the sense that
Starting point is 00:05:19 There is something I think big that's gonna happen for you And I think that and I hate saying this because it's a compliment, but I honestly think that you're a mercilessly talented and I think that Your work ethic is Just up there man.

It was absolute disaster But I just remember you guys rented or read Mustang. Yeah. Yeah, it was a dodge challenger Oh, don't show that much credit And we drove out there, but so I think that he's really talented. He makes me laugh. I think He what he's also done over the years is the neediness of him, right? It has died down and he's a little bit more jaded, which I like

And I don't know why you would think that they would hire Burt Kreischer or somebody of that elk, right? But for some reason they wanted me and so we go into this and also in this room, right? It's not just a showroom. It's it's a gigantic like a warehouse looking like a place, right? It's a mansion ballroom ballroom, right huge ballroom And then it's like the other half of the ballroom is curtain off for an auction
Starting point is 00:17:05 So there's like sports cars in there and like memorabilia, you know, I mean, yeah and people are You know in in in the place where we're performing people are there But they're also people are out bidding and walking around in this other area So there's it's and and we're supposed to perform for just the front part of yeah in this environment It's almost as like performing in front of a cafeteria. Yeah, right because it was like there was no show Almost what I felt like it felt like a nightmare. It was it was one of the hardest gigs. I've had I've never seen anybody Bomb as bad as Jeremiah. I mean, I've seen thousands of shows, right?
Starting point is 00:17:49 But here's what I loved about it. It's like, you know, when you bought like I've seen openers Bomb and cry or they they start off strong But it's late the crowd, you know, I mean wither them down into nothing, right? And when I see that happening, I feel sad. All right, but what when I see what Jeremiah did, right? It makes me proud like a proud parent. What this fucking guy got he goes up there and people there are guys standing up With red-faced veins on their faces, right? This is a hundred percent true. Yeah, a hundred percent true You suck get off get off the stage. Yeah. Oh my god

Yeah, oh right and I'm in the back like it through a curtain looking at him, right? And when I'm hearing get off Jeremiah is on stage upside down With a stool or something, right and a pose pole and he's doing some sort of Right He doesn't meeting thousand he does not care, right? He does how much three minutes? No Well, I'm you said you said this is what you said right before I went on. Yeah, because you had to do 40 minutes for this

Yeah, okay, and before I went out there. They just done a raffle. They just done a raffle. Yeah, and then the guy the host He gets handed a card and he goes. Oh, I Guess I guess the the act brought an opener This is my intro I guess the act brought an opener. Yeah Please welcome Jeremiah doesn't even say man. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like Jeremiah and I walk out
Starting point is 00:20:07 Nobody claps. Nobody class because they want to see Bobby Mm-hmm. So what Bobby knew was gonna happen is that I was gonna be the sacrificial lamb Yeah, or that gig I ate it too No, you didn't know you didn't I not as hard as you Bobby. You're doing that thing. You're doing that thing you do No, no, no, no, no Him saying he crushed it. Yeah, exactly. He did great Oh, but he told me but but to preface this on the on the way to Vegas the entire time Bobby is telling me you're gonna bomb the night. Oh, I love that one. You're gonna
Starting point is 00:20:45 Have I done that to you before my first time doing state You actually get on this podcast for three weeks and promote. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, huh? So and I was like, no, I'm not no, I'm not you're you're like you'll see you'll see and then it happened The only laugh I heard the entire time was Bobby dying laughs backstage Just cackling because it was so he thought it was so funny to see what was happening Just the absolute nothing that I was getting in the ground. I know but I wasn't laughing at the because you're failing I was laughing at the fact that you're seeing two different things at the same time. Yeah, of course You're seeing hatred like literally like, you know, um
Starting point is 00:21:23 Imagine like AOC going to a Trump rally. Yeah, that's what it felt like. Yeah, like just the wrong person at the wrong time Right and then AOC committing right to a speech Right and finishing it like doubling like I'm gonna I have a ten minute speech I'm in a Trump rally and I'm gonna finish it now imagine AOC Saying good night, and then Trump walking out kicking her in the pussy That was Bobby that night He destroyed and
Starting point is 00:22:07 Literally after the show like, you know, they're cutting in the check and stuff and they're like, wow, that's amazing Everybody's coming up to him shaking his hand one pictures and I'm just standing there like looking for anything the entire time Just looking for any reassurance and the booker kept looking at me and going Yeah, kid. Good luck. Uh Yeah, but then Bobby he knew what had happened He took me out to like the nicest steak dinner afterwards and reward me like dude You did exactly why I brought you here You did exactly what I wanted you because I'm gonna tell you something all right if he hadn't gone up before me and done that
Starting point is 00:22:38 I would have struggled for 15 minutes. Of course. Yeah, right. Yeah, I knew so I needed a kid Right that was gonna commit to it. Right was going to know he was gonna fail Right and set me up And I'm gonna say this right now. It sounds cruel, but I had been that guy Of course, right. Jay Moore did it to me at USC. Oh, right. We had a daytime show, right? It was so supposed to start at five, right and I was supposed to do 15 minutes But I'm I'm I'm in my 15 minutes and and I was like about to wrap up But the Sun was still up and Jay Moore goes you're not getting off stage until the Sun is you're mean
Starting point is 00:23:23 gone Till it sets until it's black. Oh, geez, right? And I remember being up there for an hour Yeah eating it Just running around. I did everything I could every trick that I had in the running around You know clap sing a song right? I was doing everything right and I bombed so bad And I got off stage so angry off stage so angry and then Jay went up, you know, I mean everyone cheered He killed it and I just remember just being in a ball of anger in the back But then in retrospect I go I thought you know, that's just the best
Starting point is 00:24:03 You know comedy experience that you can have because it's like You're learning to perform Right, like when you're on the tonight show and you're bombing Right, if you're if you've condition conditioned yourself to pretend that you're doing well in a hostile environment, right? People on the camera watching it are gonna go. Oh, he's doing fine. Mm-hmm, right? It's if you let the audience affect you, right, then you're dead And that's why I think the comedy stores or such store is so important because it's such a tough room, right?
Starting point is 00:24:41 Yeah, we were able to learn how to that's right when you play the comedy store and then you go to a place like the ice house It's easy. It's like you're killing it, right? but I think that you know putting young comics in those kind of You know environments is a good thing in the beginning of all this you said that in Vegas. He fucked you So it was the other way around I did fuck him You fucked him. I fucked you. Yeah, dude. I fucked you and I apologize. It's okay, man But look at you now. I know I'm here with you No, it's not that
Starting point is 00:25:21 I've been we freaking made it dude. I'm gonna say something. Okay when I watch you when I watch you on Tony Hingecliffe's show. Yeah, right? Yeah, what's a kill Tony? Yeah, right? It's and I watch you improvise into different characters and and do your thing I think I literally always think to myself. Wow, that guy is so funny. I really do Quick quick quick quick quick quick for your teeth You guys I never used to brush my teeth ever It was like a yearly event and my teeth started falling out And I think the reason why if I had quip my whole life

Yeah, Arnold Schwarzenegger But see here's the deal I want to be that positive light now. Okay, great, right? Yeah, I want you to have a relationship with my Brother Steve. I love my brother. I love Steve. Yeah, but but I Don't want to be
Starting point is 00:31:53 The negative version of it, right? I mean, I want to be positive. Yeah, and do you feel that I've changed? You've gotten more positive over the years for sure and Kaleila had a big part to do with that Like a huge part to do with it like a massive part to do with it. Do you think so? Yeah Yeah, she made you a better person dude off of me. Yeah, of course and he hard and called you out on your stuff You didn't have anybody to call you out in your crap. So then Kaleila came in and fixed you man Thanks. Yeah, she has done that. I mean my wife did the same thing with me I like you know what I mean like as a comic like she's put up with a lot like you You know better than anybody like how much you have to put up with when you're dating a comedian
Starting point is 00:32:34 It's like patience is such a virtue with you ladies That's an interesting thing that you said because it's not obviously because the process is slow And you don't really kind of see, you know the change really because it's just it's been an eight-year relationship, right? But if I do look back, you know, there's definitely been a change and she's you know, she's done a lot for me You know, I honestly think that I would have already had COVID If you were you dude, you definitely would I would have because you still would have been touring and like sucking on mics and stuff Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I would have number one Mike sucker, too I know yeah, I suck on that. Yeah, I'm so close to it too all the time. I lick it
Starting point is 00:33:15 You know I mean so disgusting, but that's not your ultimate dream. Is it what stand up? I Mean, I always want standards to be a part of my career. I'll always do it for the rest. Yeah, I love it But you have bigger dreams. No Yeah, yeah, what are they? I mean, I want to do movies I want to be in a sketch show or whether it's my my sketch show or somebody else's sketch I that's another that that's the feeling that I had that like the reason why I think that you remind me of Melissa's I didn't think I think SNL might be Could be in your future
Starting point is 00:33:46 We'll see I keep submitting so oh you do. Yeah. Yeah, Melissa put in she was very sweet She put in a word for me this most recent time. It was yeah, sir so because I think that once you go there and and Seth and People see you is set up still a part of it I don't know. I don't think so. It's Colin Joseph and Michael Chay. Yeah, Michael. Yeah. Yeah, so I think I think once they see you I think once you're in the room off of a tape it would be difficult But I see you go in there with your energy that you I think you have a shot at that was the first thing you You told me when you saw me at the comedy store
Starting point is 00:34:23 You pulled me to the side because you used to Bobby used to Like early on when he was single he would just go and hang out during potluck and he would just like watch Comedians sets from the back of the room and just like and if he liked you It was dope because he would pull you aside and a lot of times I would see people get road work or whatever like hey I'm gonna come up for me on terror improv or that here. Yeah, I used to do that, huh? Yeah, you did do that a lot. Don't you anymore? um, I
Starting point is 00:34:52 Don't know I just want to come home. Mm-hmm. I think I think that's what it is. Yeah, like when I wasn't in a relationship. I I um, I Mean there's a Don't don't get offended, but it's two-fold. I like to stay out. Maybe I'll meet somebody. Mm-hmm. Oh, gotcha Right, maybe you could meet somebody, you know, and then also I I love watching young comics, you know Yeah, I do. I just you know, I like I remember a Lot of young guys that are big now that I saw for the very first time at open mic night Just sitting there and just watching them and going
Starting point is 00:35:27 Like that's how I met Santino. So I remember seeing Santino with Delia him and I were watching a Sunday and we saw Santino go up and Immediately him and I looked at each other and said That guy's good. There's something about that guy, you know, and then you see the guy, you know But then there are some people that you see and you don't think and they still do it Well, yeah, you know, there were guys that like like Sebastian When I first saw him I I could I would have bet my life on it that he would have never made it really Yeah, because he was wearing a red
Starting point is 00:36:08 Silk, you know, I mean like, you know some sort of Vegas showroom. He was a Guido. Yeah, like a red silk button up Do you remember my red blazer that I used to wear? No, you remember that? No, do you remember that call island? Oh, yeah, oh, yeah, I used to wear a red blazer at the first couple years at his standup It was obnoxious, but why because I thought it's gonna be my thing man. Yeah, I thought I needed a thing Yeah, you know what I mean? That's why the red blazer guy I made my hair really puffy and big sure and I used to suck like this. Really? Yeah Yeah, I had my hair up like this unrecognizable unrecognizable like on old tapes and stuff like that. Yeah, it is this I'd be like, what's up? So anyway, um and I used to do that on purpose because I thought that I needed a hook
Starting point is 00:36:52 Right, right and I used to wear like overalls with no shirt Underneath cowboy hat cowboy hat cowboy boots and go up on stage like that and and I tried to like Steve I know. Yeah, I was hey, that's weird. I know that's weird, but I Felt like I need it Yeah, but then you would have comics come up to you and go Dude, just be yourself Yeah, no, I like you're like what does that mean? I got the advice from three different comics to tell me to stop wearing it
Starting point is 00:37:26 They're like you do characters. You're not a character. Stop wearing that thing. Yeah, you don't point Yeah, and I think the people that like stick to those things those hooks They just it they're just one dime dimensional really. Yeah, you know, there was a guy named Jackie banana You ever don't tell you about Jackie banana. I don't think so. Yeah, but this oh wait, I do remember Jackie It sounds the name so there was his name was Jackie Graham So it was a comic named Jackie grab and one that night he was performing at the store and Mitzi Comes up to him and says Your new name is Jackie banana, and he goes what your new name is Jackie banana
Starting point is 00:38:10 He goes, okay, you had to wear a yellow suit Right, so he would go up on stage as Jackie banana wearing a yellow suit and then you know You never really you didn't really pan out or there was like and that man is Chris rock And then there are other ones like Well Carlos was one of those Mencia where you know his Mitzi told him to change his name He told Jackson Purdue she told Jackson Purdue from now on you have to wear a thick purple turtle neck like in the summer So he did it for like three years. Wow. We're a fucking turtle net purple turtle neck, all right, and

Yeah, that's the only way. Thank you. Yep. We're gonna move on from that Yeah, and it was one of those things where I was like, okay I just started getting an ungodly amount of boners where I was just like this is this is crazy Yeah, like I was like dude if I hugged a girl in the hallway at high school It's like immediately and I'm wearing like basketball shorts and I'm the kid who's like walking like with the books and stuff Yeah, you know, yeah, just trying to hide it and stuff like that. So then I started jerking off and then you know loved it and

I did Only a few scenes I shot um I Would look at porn but there's a lot of guilt associated with that and I actually so I haven't been looking at porn during the pandemic really Which I've been trying to avoid doing it because I feel better about my relationship and everything with my wife when I'm not looking
Starting point is 00:42:06 At that stuff. I try not to consume that stuff Because it makes it does make our sex better for sure Yeah, if I'm avoiding looking at like graphic stuff online like it's just it is more special as cheesy as that sounds But I do think like I've done it both ways But when I'm on I was on the road, it's like you got to take care of it on the road and I would like yeah You know go to town like you'd have to yeah, you have to yeah Do you get girls hitting on you on the road now or no? I don't think I put out that vibe Yeah, you don't have a sexual. No, I know you're a sexual being right right? No
Starting point is 00:42:41 I'm gonna throw that out there. Yeah, you're a very sexual being and I could see why women would be attracted to you Thank you so much, but but You have mutante face. You know what I mean? He calls everyone mutante. Yeah, it's like a mutante. You know you have a very like what what is that disease that were The skin is inside out Harlequin Bobby would send me photos all the time and say I just found your doppelganger
Starting point is 00:43:09 He would send me those photos all the time Dude all the time he's like graphic stuff. I think there was one time We were looking at we were watching one of those shows and like the kid had like Pierre Robin syndrome And you were like, that's a baby Jeremiah Yeah, but you know, um, I apologize again, I'm okay. I'm okay changing as a person I have to apologize because one time I did something as a comic that was very embarrassing in front of you Kalayla this and you I doubt you I doubt you remember this I remember everything you remember everything. We were at we are at a yard house after one of the shows at the improv
Starting point is 00:43:50 And we're eating and Bobby was making Asian jokes And he was like saying jungle Asian and all this stuff and I think I said like an Asian slur And Bobby went up to me by the throat and he goes Yeah, but in a joking way, no, no, no, I would never violently attack you. I did that. What was it? What was a slur? I think I said Say it No, but we're allowing you to do it because here look into my eyes and call me whatever you Then look back at the camera. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so you said gook. Yeah, right? Yeah, and then
Starting point is 00:44:31 They lift you off the ground Yeah, you got angry about that. I don't think I did that. That's why for me if a white you were trying it was early on It was very early on dating Kalayla. You were trying to impress how long I've known you. I've known you before yeah before Kalayla really Jeremiah was at The Irvine and no, Brea Brea improv, okay, and you opened for him and I remember You doing your jokes about snorting cocaine. Yes. Yes, all right him. Yeah, yeah Huh, I think it was then that we it was probably then yeah, it's probably the yardhouse right after that show
Starting point is 00:45:14 Yeah, and I remember Kalayla like like kind of like looked the other way and then like we went back to eating and it was fine Like well, here's a message to my white friends out there my white male friends Okay, if you're a white male careful, I know I am and you're out with your Asian friend and your Asian friend Yeah, right is dating another Asian, right? My message to the white guy is don't call the Asian woman a gook It's more no it was more the false sense of like, you know when you're hanging out with black friends and they're using the n-word a lot and then you get excited and you're like, oh I can say it too. It was that similar situation You're going down the list of like Asian slurs and stuff Yeah, and I am a young comic trying to impress Bobby and I like
Starting point is 00:46:05 Yeah, and I've never actually by the way, I have never I've wanted to But I never thought that I've been around a lot of like black friends and they use the n-word, right? But for some reason I just never had the balls to do it, right? Good for you as it should be you never and I hope it's trying to get beat up You know me. I just never had I've wanted to like, you know, I'm real like I'm real close with Jamar neighbors and Willie Hunter Yeah, we've done I love them years and years of shows together Yeah, and they'll let me have one every like couple years. Oh Really? Oh, yeah, would you ask first man? No, I don't I don't because it cuz it kills
Starting point is 00:46:44 Because we're all friends. Yeah, and they're like I used to do this joke that Jamar would give me like it was this bit that I Definitely can't do anymore But Jamar would be side stage and he would give me permission to say the n-word And in front of the crowd that's great and I would do it and like half the crowd loved it Yeah, and then the other half like was fuming angry every time I do it Yeah, because that's another reason why I like you In terms of your work is the the roast battles. Yeah, and your work with Jamar, right on those roast my battles are just so Fucking funny, man. Some of the things you've done you sometimes I've been involved, right?
Starting point is 00:47:26 Yeah, you jumped in a couple times. It's amazing. You make me do it Yeah, but the things that you guys would do I just felt like there was a good you and Jamar should do something Yeah, there's a good chemistry. Yeah, we have good chemistry. Yeah. Yeah, we want to figure something out Did you grow up with black people? I black friends and stuff like that and then like my mom I technically I had like a black stepdad for a little while after my parents had divorce and stuff like that. Oh Yeah, who was that? Did you call him that word? No, but my mom did I Really? Oh, yeah, oh, that's like terms of affection for that. All right
Starting point is 00:47:58 So the yeah, so the dad I saw on your Instagram isn't your biological dad. That's my biological dad Oh, yeah, but he does look like he's a darker skin tone than me. I'm yeah, it's weird He doesn't do nothing like it. I look nothing like my family members. I look nothing like them It's the weirdest thing. I think we should get it. Could you have been adopted? I don't think so Really? I don't think so. There's no similar like an eyeball. I look like my dad's brother a little bit But I have my dad's eyes. We both I have my dad's like brown eyes like a hundred percent. Yeah Haven't met your brothers or sisters? No, you haven't why oh, you know what you've you not you didn't meet my brother
Starting point is 00:48:38 But in at the Kansas City improv when they asked for and you asked for a volunteer to do your striptease on My brother volunteered one night and he called me. He goes, I just got a lap dance from Bobby Lee So that's the only connection that you guys have is is he's literally why wouldn't he have said I'm Jeremiah's brother Well, I was grinding up on him. I don't I don't know I can't do that anymore that dance. Oh, really? Oh, yeah That's done done Had to end somehow. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean, it's amazing closer. I was the only is the only closer that every Weight staff and every comedian would still pile into the room to see even though you've seen it It's yeah, I would feet. I remember one time like me a couple years ago
Starting point is 00:49:23 I Have a Christian friend her name is Beverly and she lives in Texas Mm-hmm, and she'd never seen the striptease and she saw the show. She was laughing through the whole show But then when she saw it Her husband and herself came up to me after the show. They came in the green room They throw holy water at you. No, and they were really concerned. What? Yeah, I just like for your well-being No, like I don't think that you need to do that. I think it's against, you know Because I know you don't believe in Christ, but
Starting point is 00:49:54 It's against the energies of what Christ would want you to do. It's just it's it's blasphemy You know me and I'd be like I was like, but it's killing Yeah, I don't care about Christ. I the audience loves it Christ killed two. Yeah, but like And then I remember being in Kansas City and the manager I doing that dance and the manager being a Christian He he told me to come into his office and he said let's pray about it really Yeah, so we got on our hands and knees and we prayed about I love that offer I love when people ask to pray over things that I've yeah, but then I did it every show after that
Starting point is 00:50:36 That's what my grandma does what when I call her like she'll like check in on me and stuff like that She's like, well, let's let's just pray about it. Let's pray on this. Let's just pray on this No, is your grandmother to date now because I know that you come from a religious family Mm-hmm. Are they freaked out that you're still out here? My grandma is for sure and why yeah, what do you mean? Why I mean she thinks this is this Is the devil Satan City? You know what I mean? She does? Yeah, it's like what's the only time about it? The only time she was proud of me is when I did a Chevy Volt commercial Really saw it on CNN and Fox and she could show her friends and the old folks. Oh, yeah
Starting point is 00:51:11 She's like she literally said to me. She goes well I don't agree with a lot of that you do out there But if you keep working for good American companies like Chevy then I can get behind that Wow, like what? You know, it's it's the divisions because you know, it's it's funny You and I both Jeremiah have been out in the world. We've got we've been in red states Yeah performed and the people that come out look like the people that you would see in LA Right, you don't really see a difference. I
Starting point is 00:51:40 Don't and it's like it's funny how people think that like LA some sort of like Wasteland or you know some dystopian wasteland where it's like there's crime happening. No, you see kids You know me and and families and and yeah, like you would see anywhere else It's all the same and yet, you know, I don't know. It's it's it's just weird out there, man It's you know, I think maybe the media does have something to do with it Yeah, they think they have a lot to do with it Right carving out some sort of like, you know, it's all about perception or narratives No, thank you about narratives, you know, but we're all the same. I want to meet your grandma. Will she meet me?
Starting point is 00:52:22 I don't think so. Why? I mean Would she say the G word? No No, why wouldn't I okay? Let's you play your grandmother. Has she seen an agent? You play your grandmother. I come over Okay, where does she live in an apartment? She lives in like an old folks home right now. All right, so what room number is it? 201 I would show yeah, yeah, so I'm left Kingdom. You're not knock on the door. I got knock knock knock Hello, hi, what's her name? What's her name? Bernice Bernice? Hey, what's up? My name is Bobby. I'm a calm one of the new nurses No

He's really climbing the comedy ladder and I think he's very talented. Can I come in? Okay. Yeah, so Bernice Bernice. Yes, Bernice. Yeah, yeah How do you feel about Jeremiah being in LA? Oh, I feel like he's a lost soul Oh, you oh, I feel like if he gets right with God and maybe comes back to Kansas and finds a different career path and that would be More in God's storyline for him. Wow. Yeah, right. So you think that like, you know Because Bernice if like Van Gogh, right didn't paint would you think that that would have been a good thing?
Starting point is 00:53:59 I think you're comparing apples and oranges, Bobby. What do you mean? There's one true God and there's only one path to him Bye I would not know what to say. Oh, yeah, you don't know. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Bye There's no it's you hit a railroad. So she's really like handmade his tail I mean, it's pretty she was a missionary in the Cayman Islands Oh, like so she has taught like with like They were like the only white people on the Cayman Islands. Oh, they were like taken care of like they like There and it was very like a unique situation where like they were very revered and very respected because
Starting point is 00:54:42 They were you know, they're rare people who were bringing God's message to them. Yeah, so It's a whole different so if I said to betris Bernice Bernice, right? But trees. That was a stretch Bernice. I was if I said to your grandmother Bernice. I said, um Jeremiah and I are getting married What? What would she do? I You want me to know not as Jeremiah. Okay. I didn't want me to stay right. What would she do?
Starting point is 00:55:13 I mean, she would she I think that she would tell you to your face like I don't believe that gays should get married And I think that you can pray about this and get rid of this. Wow. So yeah, that's it. You know what I mean You can't change that. You can't yeah. Yeah, there's not like I'm as not I'm happy for you kind of thing like she just thinks one way she wouldn't come see you perform Then I would never invite her she'd have a heart attack if she if she Yeah, if she found my youtube If she ever saw my youtube they've my family's been hiding my youtube from her for so many years because she's not that tech savvy
Starting point is 00:55:48 But she could get like she could get on the internet. Yeah wants to yeah And I think that she kind of knows by the way my family talks about stuff Like like I don't know it's kind of like a family who their daughter does porn and they're like no You know, she's still she's doing some modeling. Right stuff like that You don't need to see it like we'll let you know when it comes out when the next project comes out But are your are your but your parents aren't like that?

And now you're in the arts and leisure's portion of the knotted grandma Bernice see that I hope that they take it to her I mean that would that would probably be nice because they talk about they talk about in the article how I the guy who watched my special Uh, how I don't uh, I don't swear in it like I talk about graphic stuff But I don't swear and my grandma probably love that, you know what I mean? Yeah. Yeah, so he called my comedy PG 19 Because that's what I do. I don't really swear with my stand-up I choose to be to paint the the words differently with different stuff
Starting point is 00:57:01 Just because I've like never like people it's weird people come up to me like after shows after I'm talking about jizzing and stuff And they're like, thank you so much for not swearing But jizzing, but I'm you say jizzing. Yeah. Yeah, they don't jizzing not swearing. No, and you can be like You know the whole thing and and they're like you didn't say the f word. So we appreciate that. It's very weird Wow, very weird.

Oh, yeah, what if what if You were asked to co-headline with chappelle 40 000 seats Um on that Saturday the same time that bobby's funeral is about to take place and this is Wow
Starting point is 01:02:06 That hurts The pause hurts the pause the reason why I pause is because like are there other wakes going on? I'm just kidding bro. I'd be there. You went okay. I wish I could say the same Do the thing you didn't come to my wedding which you said you invite him I don't think you invited me. He did. Of course. I did you guys ended up getting us a wedding gift. You're very sweet Well, I got you. We did. I think we did. He doesn't know anything Yeah, yeah, what do we get it? What do we get though? What do you think the gift was bobby? What do you think the gift was? Yeah, let's do a guess a carriage

Yeah, how much It was you know a couple grand. It was from my bank account now yours. It wasn't as much as it was. Did you have a fun honeymoon? Yeah, where'd you go? We don't have to tell her Oh Do the thing Bobby Kalala a job by Watkins
Starting point is 01:03:12 Here's my situation. I'm currently working for a large department store chain The pay is shipped and the working conditions are even worse most recent paycheck is uh, uh, also nearly two weeks late now I work in a position where I have access to most products in all areas of the store and can remove items to be shipped to customers without anyone paying any attention to me No one really knows who I am there and no one pays attention to me in my main area where I work My question is is it wrong for me to take small valuable items from the store like jewelry? As sort of a vigilante justice sort of action to counter the act gross mistreatment of employees And the terrible capitalistic ideals of the company and help spread their hoarded wealth from price products to other people in my community
Starting point is 01:03:54 Uh, what do you robin hood? That's what he wanted to say is basically I know Bobby Kalala had mentioned how they never take from an independently owned or small business Uh, but should I play some sort of robin hood type individual to help others in my community? And also myself because I have very expensive medical costs like insulin. You know what I When when I was in high school, my best friend jessica was the asian robin hood and she You know my sister and I didn't have a lot of money or family didn't have a lot of money and for our birthdays If I wanted a baby fat jacket, she got me a baby fat jacket from macy's and always big big establishments if I wanted, you know
Starting point is 01:04:35 Whatever what was a fancy cologne then I always use men's cologne like curve blue water cool water aqua digio Whatever I wanted she got it for me and um I am forever grateful that you know an asian robin hood existed when I was young. Um, I I go ahead I used to work at a coffee shop and we used to put We were but they had these old registers where if somebody who used to be slammed
Starting point is 01:05:09 And when I would play the when I was the register guy I was I figured out how to um ring something up without having To put it through the register. So they would give me the cash Right and then I was able to I would take that cash and put it in the tip jar And I did it. I would probably make an extra For the for because we had to split the the tips So an extra couple hundred bucks
Starting point is 01:05:38 And I did that For years as starbucks. I stole from them for for years. Yeah For years I would get like uh, you could mark things out as damaged. Yeah, I would just go Oh, oops. Yeah, I'd drop it and then it would have like a little dent in it. I'm like lunch Oh, and you would take it. Oh, yeah, I get naked juices. I'd get sandwiches All this different stuff like yeah, just to survive the first couple years in LA, you know, yeah I'm gonna answer like he's my son And I just don't think it's worth it overall like getting caught especially, you know, like
Starting point is 01:06:15 I my son I would say, um I just know what the consequences are But you know, get me some shit. Yeah. Yeah, hook it up. But go wild. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Give me a list of things they do have the amount of sandwiches and stuff that I hooked friends up with Like at Starbucks while I was there like I would bring home so much stuff and it fed so many comedians. It was great Yeah, all you were comic then. Yeah, my biggest high school crush ever I won't say his name, but I was so in love with so in love with him
Starting point is 01:06:45 But he got kicked out of high school like two months before he graduated because he robbed a soup plantation I was really upset about it. He did. How do you rob a buffet? Yeah He he robbed a soup plant. I think they broke in or something and I don't know how it happened Oh, he never graduated. I thought it was soup like they're taking like Like out of there like why would you do that? Yeah like in bags. Yeah, that's only garbage bags of soup RIP plantations, by the way. Oh, they're done. RIP. They're done. Yeah I don't think that was Jeremiah, what does he do? We didn't hear your thoughts. I think
Starting point is 01:07:26 I mean, just be careful if you're gonna do it I don't think that you should necessarily do the robin hood thing where you're like Giving it like to tons of people in like a community like if it's people close to you And it doesn't it doesn't get like out of hand then I guess that's maybe okay, but you know generally I wouldn't say you should I think if you're doing it for the good If you have the gifting these people and not charging them an arm and leg and you're making a lot of people happy Maybe, you know, do it in little bits at a time and space out. But make some money I mean if you're gonna do it make some money
Starting point is 01:07:59 So not not much money. Not robbing it at all. Not robbing. No, you you you do robin hood it, right? But let's say you you steal like a stereo system. Yeah, you ocean's loving it. Yeah, yeah, right a stereo system, right? You sell it. I mean don't sell it for 10 bucks Right sell it for if it's worth 500 bucks sell it for 100. What kind of stereo system did you have in mind? I don't know. I don't I've never met I've never I don't know what kind of stereo system like bows. Yeah, you got bows Okay, yeah, yeah, and then like, you know make a little money if you can take the risk Little bit Yeah, no cash in baby
Starting point is 01:08:35 That's not a robin hood at all that guy named robin. That's robin. Yeah. Well, this is rob him Yeah, he's just robbing them. Yeah, he's a robbing hood There we go because if he's young, right and he goes to prison, right You can learn from your lesson, right Just see It's not the way to learn lessons. Yes, it is. What are you gonna get a year? No, it depends. You just fucking ask three times. It gets there a limit Isn't it like a misdemeanor if it's like below a certain amount and then a felony if it's above a certain amount
Starting point is 01:09:06 Yeah, because I remember my friend always saying that it's got to be You can't go over. I right. I would just amount. You got to be safe just in case I'm gonna say who but I I was in a um I was acting on something and I was in a van with a driver And we were talking because we had to go a long way And he goes I was in prison for 30 years Yeah, and now I would use this cool union job and I know how much transport people make they make a lot, right? And I go
Starting point is 01:09:37 Why were you in prison? We used to rob banks, right? I robbed like 20 of them And I got away with most of it But I spent 30 years in prison, right? But look at my life now and I've changed. I don't rob and I don't steal And I just thought to myself He learned his lesson So steal. What a great example. So steal. I can't wait for you to be a dad, dude. Yeah No, if it was my son, I would say don't do it. Yeah, right? Yeah, that's what we would say at the end of the day
