you up. I hope your two feet hit the ground. You touch your head and you thank the man for
giving you another motherfucking day to sling dick because at the end of the week that's the most
important thing. What's going on? Well now we know why I'm not an actor. I couldn't find my script
and I did good for hulu plus and dollar shape club but the other one you did you slip with on it

consistency. We come out here Mondays and fucking Wednesdays. Next Wednesday we got no show. Next
Tuesday night we're doing the show. Seven o'clock Pacific, 10 o'clock Eastern time. We're doing some
type of state of union address here for fucking the church or what's happening now. I can't do
Wednesday morning on live view. Besides that was going on Lee. That was your day yesterday. You're
getting ready to fucking move everything. It's packed. It's a big day. Yeah it's uh every I've
moved every year since I started college at least once and it fucking sucks but I used to just pull
all nighters the night before and this year I did a little bit each day and it's almost done. There's
a couple odds and ends and shit like that but uh at midnight last night I just said fucking I need
I need I can't I couldn't I had three podcasts yesterday and I couldn't not sleep before this.
I would have been fucking dead so I just take your energy out podcasting. It really gets you
tired. Two or three of them. Two or three of them. You had to do three in a day. I couldn't
even talk on the way home. You know what for me mostly it does but thank you for being on ricks
yesterday. There are when you're doing them that you like and they're good because I mean we usually
you asked me sometimes was that a good podcast and we usually have a pretty decent podcast
that sometimes a little off and on but um the one with Rick yesterday with you it just it was really
cool and I like me and Steve Simone were goofing around talking about he had Duncan Trustle on his
so it's just goofy and then Josh Wolf and Sarah Colon are always fun and goofy so uh I have it's
not it breaks it up for you it was all different yesterday yesterday the morning was a little serious
because I mean listen man when Rick called me that morning Rick is like Joe I have bad news for you
now when somebody calls me says there's bad news for me I don't know maybe it's somebody close to me
or something he's like Harold Ramis that at first I was like what's that got to do with me you know
yeah it's a shame but what the fuck's it got to do with me then I started to know what that guy put me
in a fucking movie that guy catapulted my ego he didn't catapult my career he catapulted he helped me
that was one of the first turning moments of my life I still have the picture on the on the wall
and I look at me and him after the shoot with my friend's uncle who was also on the shoot
a Chicago guy on the wall and I look at it a lot because sometimes when I get down I got I didn't
get to meet him at the fucking candy store and I said can I take a picture I got to work for him
mm-hmm so you don't have no idea what it did for my ego boost yeah being a denero movie was great
in 2002 but to meet to me the real conduit of comedy for the 80s he was a conduit you know he
really changed the game with ground log day and then he really did I know we discussed this yesterday
on ricks if you want to listen to it rick uh does a great movie podcast if you're into movies
an old buffer whatever he really knows his game but uh I started realizing throughout the day what
how ramus meant to me you know as a comedian you know and I think he even meant a little more than
prior because prior was somebody I looked up to in a different sense mm-hmm how ramus was
somebody I was always a fan of like their work like genuinely like Jesus that's fucking great
and to meet him uh you know nobody talks to me I have no agent I have no manager he's got a big
time manager he's got a big time publicist I have none of those things and maybe it's in my best
interest not to have one but that made it all better I could give a frenchman's fuck and that'll
trump any fucking argument that trumps in my eyes any fucking argument because there ain't no how
ramus is walking around you know so that's uh no it's great when I when he when he told me because
I was in here on another podcast I didn't hear about it but I had remembered you talking about
analyze that so I was like oh shit I wonder if Joey's okay and I called you you were fine but
bro listen I've lost fucking family and friends yeah you know this yeah I'm fine you know I'm not
gonna I'm not one of those guys that's you know oh my god I'm not gonna wear a black ribbon on your
shirt I've been at wakes man and there's nothing words you want to be a fake in your fucking daily
life be a fucking fake in your daily life but when you're at a wake you really see the fakes I loved
them he had his last conversation with me he was my best friend it doesn't fucking matter you know
you're just here for fucking show the people who yell the loudest at those wakes and who cry the most
they're the biggest fucking phonies in the fucking world yeah you know so I'm not one of those fucking
people that's gonna sit here and bend and bang bang the fucking thing and you know
there's a lot of people trying to mooch themselves into the funeral now oh no you think so oh there's
pukey people in this fucking world man I always wonder how that happens because even for Philip
Seymour Hoffman they had the news shot of everyone walking up to the church I'm like I don't think
he's friends with all these it like all these actresses and actresses and like who like who
who does the guest list for a funeral what happens is they think it's hip to be seen there
if they're they go they go no I don't know I don't know the rules I wouldn't ever go
but there's people in this city that think it's hip to be seen at places I have a friend that I
follow on Facebook I don't follow him on purpose I don't know what the fuck how we even got the
and he's a wannabe actor and every day you know every three days he posts the picture with those
premier things they have now you know those things they put outside a club and you take a picture
of like you're in Hollywood every two days it's a picture with the same fucking disgusting stupid
fucking uncle drikeling jacket okay and the same little Italian hat trying to be fucking international
do you know what I'm saying and you see the people he's taking pictures with and you see the people
he's mingling with and it's like it's these fucking people that are here and they actually believe
that if you go out and talk to people that you'll be discovered and they omit the whole
process of the hard work process they're what you call you know they want to go and there's a word
for it when you go and mingle not mingle but smooth smooth there's another word for it
even like people use to be more small swarming network I'm gonna go network but a bunch of other
fucking jackoffs I hate that word that want to cut through work and just they make believe because
they go out and have a cocktail in their hand that that's the hip thing to do what are you oh my god
I'm a designer get the fuck out of here and meanwhile I'm home studying right in the fucking
you understand that's a huge thing for people my age is networking events and I always get the
fuck there's no networking yeah my mom will call me every week with a different thing and I went to
like one of them and I found out like anyone there doesn't seem to be working they're not working
they're a bunch of strokes they're there talking about going to France and everything if they were
anybody they wouldn't be there anyway yeah always remember that problem if they were anybody they
wouldn't be there anyway yeah so if you're one of those minglers that likes to network take that
word out of your thing there's no such thing as networking if you're not on stage what are you
doing at this comic well I'm supporting Lisa at least I had no need no support he got the stand-up
comedy it's a solo act yeah stand-up comedy is a solo act I don't want no support if you're
comedian don't come down what are you gonna support what support what I got 10 minutes here what are
you here and either watch no go the fuck to a club and do stand-up then after you do two sets if
you want to go watch david tell or watch a legend do comedy go but don't fucking you know I'm just
going down that don't you have a set tonight no I have the night off there ain't no nights off in
comedy there ain't no nights off I don't know what you're talking about networking doing what
talking to a bunch of jack-offs and if they're drinking they're not gonna remember you the next
day yeah you know I had snorted coke early on with a few people and I learned my lesson
you mean you snorted with a group of people no I snorted with people from the industry
I learned my lesson that the next morning when they wake up they realize what they wanted
what they did and then they don't talk to you really they don't want to mingle with you because
you know they didn't intimate most secrets you don't want to go there repeat that's why people
say to me hey I didn't get out with nobody because I learned that another time I got I gave somebody
blow another time at the comedy store yeah somebody came up to me and said man I'm tired I go I bought
five packages from Chewy the doorman and I'm not gonna do them all my friends not gonna show up take
one I didn't even charge him the 20 bucks I said take it and a month later he was on a meeting with
Josh Wolfe and John the citizen said so who's gonna you get to play this person he goes Joey
Diaz the guy goes that coke fiend same guy gave the coke to is it because people are they're
fucking disgusting here in the heart in the heart they're ashamed of it no because they go oh my god
I've never done below before yes you did you did it last night with me stop it do you understand
me it's just fake fucking people and once you see that you learn your lesson and you move forward
you know what the fuck they're thinking you know I have a friend that I would say things to like
Lee come every second he was talking shit about him but don't say nothing and he would have come
from proud cigar two days later what the fuck can I go to him I told you not to say nothing
because don't like that you always know do you understand here you always know so one day when
he comes out to give you his hand and he's laying on the floor bleeding from his asshole you can
look at him go oh by the way that night you were talking shit about me I heard about it
fuck you now I wouldn't piss on you if you won't fight you never let nobody outside the
fucking family know what the fuck you're thinking that's not in the movie that's in real life
because it's like when I called you and said somebody got snotty with me on the set a couple
weeks ago I wasn't gonna know about it I'm gonna catch that motherfucker one night when it's just me
and him he's not gonna know that's how you that's how men approach men he's not gonna know he's
walking around now thinking fuck that motherfucker he doesn't know I'm gonna bump into him somewhere
and there's gonna be a second where I'm along with him I'm the king of timing I'm gonna go that day
on the set you thought you were cute was is there a problem he's gonna look at me in his face is
like because this he's not gonna remember what happened it's just me and you here Joe Rogan's not
here to protect you nobody's here to protect you do you understand me that's a beautiful I got scared
yeah you never say no I don't say nothing no but I find out all the time who's talking I don't say
nothing but I know and when I see him I'll give him a hug yeah well I know who the fuck I know
I know what the fuck you're thinking that you get away and that's how you get those motherfuckers
you see I'm sorry do you have fantasies like I'll have fantasies of what I should have said or
what I said but it seems like you have a plan already no that's the plan there's no plan the plan
is that you're always gonna get somebody along with you at one time or not yeah and right there
you're gonna blow his fucking world and then I'm gonna know how to act no I wouldn't and these guys
always turn to Joe Rogan they all do they all call you man oh yeah they're a bunch of pussy so they
all call Joe Rogan what's wrong with your boy and Joe thousand you fucking bumped into a B's in
that bitch you're on your own he hangs up on them they all call Joe Rogan and complain like Joe
gives a fuck Joe thousand that's why I don't fuck with him that's why I deal with him on a weekly
basis once a fucking in a while because I know how Joey is that's why I don't deal with him you
said the wrong word in front of him or something now you're gonna have to live with that now you're
never gonna know when you're gonna bump into him that's always gonna be lurking in your fucking mind
why hunt why hunt the fucking dog down they're all gonna come back to you
they're all gonna come back if they think you're weak they'll come come back lurking
then they'll crack another fucking joke and that's when you got them when you were younger
did you used to like like let's say the same thing happened on the set when you said something
there like did you learn a lesson or was this always the way you did it I've learned over the
years it depends on what mood I was in that day you know you always don't know how you're gonna
react to something depending on what's going on that day if I were to run over my own dog and got a
flat and got a ticket and you're waiting for something oh yeah but when you're in a good mood
and somebody tells you something off-color first you think about why they said that to you you know
and then you say you think about how you're gonna handle it you know yeah in your best way and there's
different ways to and sometimes I don't do it all the same time sometimes I just blow my fucking top
and I attacked I need to do that more every when I get mad I get really quiet for like a while like
I'll just think and I wish I had I wish I I would go like I would yell somebody more often but like
you're a sweetheart but when I when I get mad I get like I got mad one time and not at Paula but
around Paula and she's like why are you so quiet I'm like this is just like if I'm not talking you
know that's something wrong like it's just I don't know I just I always I internalize it I don't
internalize it also when you internalize things sometimes I do this I'm the king of this this
is why I've learned over the years when you internalize things sometimes they affect other
thoughts that you have oh yeah and if you don't address them for a while they're gonna address
other thoughts and other decisions that you make and that sucks and that's uh that happens to me
in relationships with different people because I love them my first reaction towards somebody
is love yeah everything else is secondary so I overlook all that shit if I love you I overlook
everything I overlook it and uh we all do that's why our children are all spoiled yeah that's why
our children are all spoiled because it's okay if somebody does something you know the other day
I was on the floor my wife told Mercy not to climb on the furniture and she was in the shower
and she was climbing on the motorcycle I wasn't a tipsy I didn't know what to do I know if I pull
that leg off she's gonna have a heart attack so I went to see what she was doing with it
and all she was doing was sitting on the motorcycle that's her way of sitting on the motorcycle
okay then I seen it then the other day I seen a fall off and bang a fucking head too but you
follow me I mean I should have stopped it and that's where hence the expression this should
stop Hitler Munich yeah you know I'm saying and that's in uh spoiling it's not really it kind of
is spoiling but uh Paul and I went to lunch the other day and there were two kids probably under
10 both and they each had an iPad playing at lunch and even when I was a server a few years ago
families would go out and give each kid a portable DVD player and I was a kind of my family my mom
didn't even allow a TV in my bedroom not in the kitchen for dinner or anything I don't it feels
wrong when I see that I'm like these are the kids who are gonna go around like when they grow up
they're not gonna be able to know how to eat at dinner like it feels wrong to like give a kid
something to keep them quiet at a meal or sometimes you replace love and attention with those things
yeah comes back to bite you in the fucking ass I watched a very interesting interview last night
inside comedy with uh I forget the host the host has been around for a long time great comic
and he had on uh Kevin Nealon and Andrew Dice Clay wow and here Andrew Dice Clay it's a great
show I watched a couple different episodes I watched the Robert Schimmel and in fact I taped it
because they were talking about what clean comedy isn't dirty comedy isn't Schimmel made really
said some great I'm sorry today it's kind of stand-up it always changes people but there's always
a fucking story out of this but uh Andrew he was asking Andrew what he thought and he goes you know
the day that Paramount bought me out and gave me my movie deal he goes I knew my career was over
he goes so what did you do he goes wow I had two young boys and I decided that nothing was over
I was gonna raise my two young boys because it doesn't matter matter how many movies you have
if you have two shitty kids that's beautiful words anybody who knows Andrew Dice Clay knows
his whole world those two boys really I knew you know I've known Andrew for 15 years I've been very
fortunate and I'm not saying this is a name-dropper I met him as a comedian you know and I really
enjoy him I really like him I look up to him he's a fucking smart guy Andrew Dice Clay is no fucking
dumb he started as a of an Elvis impersonator or yeah there was an Elvis yeah Elvis impersonator
I could see that he's great he's and then a Travolta impersonator when Stan alive was hot he came out
he could dance and shit and his father would drive him a Jew father would drive him to clubs
and he would go with him to go inside do fucking that's what you fathers do project 10% for 13
13% but that's the evolution of a stand-up and Dice has some fucking beautiful things
you ever have a problem stand-up wise you go to Dice solved
three minutes solved really yeah he's just a genius when it comes to that stuff so I really
respect him for saying that because that's something I aspire to do you know I'm leaving
today tonight to go on the road and it's so funny how it's tough to pack your bags when you have a
family you know but you think of the people coming to the shows and I'm gonna get to see this guy
that guy and it really makes you happy you know but it's not what I want to do when she's five
oh yeah of course you know I want to be around more you know I want to be around like Tony Bennett
you know I'm saying bang there you have it now I don't want I'm sure he's not even listening
but I don't want it to come off as disrespectful because I know he's a comedy legend but it's just
a question let's not even say him well why because the the the enter Dice clay is a character
correct why it seems like a lot of comedy people if it was someone else doing it wouldn't like that
like it it seems like they might think it's like the the guitar comics like why is he you know
why was he so good at it maybe or like why was it different with him do you think he committed
okay he really committed Andrew is a really fucking good comic oh yeah I mean he's a he's a legend
it's not a legend as I think that's worth that word and brilliant and genius is is over you
sometimes okay I think the word to use is a great comic he knows the in and out he knows the basics
and most importantly did the work Bill Burr knows the insides and outside but he did the work
Mark Marin knows the insides and outside he did the work there's a lot of comics you see
that didn't do the work he did the fucking work Sebastian Maniscalco did the fucking work
you see the work you see the work they could get derailed a fucking half the room could
blow up and that's a professional you know they don't sweat small fucking things they focus on
the prey the prey is the fucking laughter to see you motherfuckers laugh that's the prey
and and and you don't want to kill them you just want to keep biting them so they keep laughing
that's why I'm biting you so you can laugh ah energy's going into your energy's coming out of
you that's what stand-up is there's mechanics on stage when you do a small room and you do a big
room big mechanics your timing you got to pronounce your words all these things go into it if I got
one good thing from being a comic is I want to aspire to be a writer like right now I really
want to start writing you know one thing I'm gonna stress with my daughter is writing that that that
freedom that you have with a pen it'll change your life forever it does anything the freedom that you
have with your mind with a pen the freedom Harold Ramis had when he wrote a lot of that shit took
you to different places you know that's the beauty of this whole fucking game that that and that's
why writing is so fucking important it's something I overlooked the first 13 years of my career
just sitting down and writing because you'll bump into other things till these February 26
nine about 2014 my father died February 26 1966 Jesus this last week I've been writing this chapter
in this book because it was it's the toughest chapter I ever have to write because it was a chat
I mean my father died at 37 the story is that he thought he was snorting coke but it was heroin
you know what I did coke for 30 years never made a mistake between coke and heroin
okay so you could tell me whatever story you want it this there's always been weird I saw the fucking
I saw the fucking obituaries that said he died of a heart attack and for years they had me thinking
he died of a heart attack it was a relative in Miami a good good friend of his that told me the
truth and he's like your mom never told you because you don't want to hurt your feelings but that's
the fucking truth so I went back and before I confronted my mom I went through all the boxes
up in the attic and I got every write-up about his death you know and other things fucking mentioned
it you know and I've been thinking about that chapter the last three days how it's it was the
reason why I did not ever want to do coke I never wanted to put nothing up my nose for years I had
made a deal with myself it was okay if I drank beers or boons for it it's okay if I smoke pot
but the day I put something up my nose it's over and you know there's a lot of variable factors
in my mother's death but maybe two weeks before my mother died I did coke for the first time
and that changed my life forever because it was a belief that I had it was it was one of the first
beliefs that I really believed in that I broke and that that was part of breaking down who I was
as a young man you're not blaming that on your mother dying are you no not at all okay it was
what I'm saying it was like the beginning of something okay good it was the beginning of
something I thought I was doing something that was very uh what's the word I thought I was doing
something very innocent I thought I was doing something with no backlash little that I know
there's a backlash you know and anybody who's done who's done drugs knows there's a backlash you
know and that was the biggest backlash I wish I could take that day back really yeah I did it with
lubes me and lubes bought fucking peppermint schnapps and vodka and we mixed them and we sprinkled
coke on the glasses and then we did little lines and it was just it was a sad fucking day and I
guarantee if I get them on the phone right now and I said think really hard how bad did that
day affect you you know he doesn't have a tooth in his mouth he's missing two front teeth so that
day affected us forever that day will live with us forever it affected me for 20-something years and
god knows how it affected him so do you understand why my belief was do you understand what I'm coming
from yeah I had a big time belief I never wanted to put anything up my nose and then I put I didn't
put coke up my nose first I put THC crystal up my nose first okay and then it was like okay I'll do
the THC crystal but I won't do the fucking blow and then I got the lung infection and I was sweating
in the hospital they're gonna scrape my lungs and find the THC crystal I almost said something to
my mom but I didn't thank god I didn't open up my fucking lungs yeah because they had to see
what the fuck was in there that was making me spit blood so they stuck a camera down my throat
with a little scraper oh god oh please don't fucking remind me I was 15 years old I'm fucking
traumatized Christ hospital in Jersey City, New Jersey I was throwing furniture out the
fucking window you know they had me in there for 17 days and they finally had to ask me to
fucking leave I didn't care what I was spitting they were like you gotta go dog you're just a
fucking savage we'll send this out to your house I mean your fucking friends are a savage too I fainted
I fainted on top of a fucking dude but it's so weird how that day affected me forever but
I think I'm up my father and I know he watched over me growing up I know for a fact that there
were situations where somebody watched over me you know I met a lot of his friends he was a really
good guy a lot of his friends came to see me and told me about them as I got older you know even
my uncle last doesn't even have to he doesn't even have a kind word to say about my mother my
uncle every once in a while I would say something fucking outrageous about his own sister he said
that my stepfather my real father was really good people he didn't like my stepfather but he really
he was I remember seeing him in the city as a young kid because my mother and my mother and uncle
were here in New York City together but my mother was living with my own uh my father and my uncle
was living up in the Spanish Harlem or something he was telling me so he'd go I would go down your
mother would be in Jersey but I would see your dad running errands in New York all the time he'd
always giggle and he'd always laugh and he goes he bought me a winter jacket one day we should have
your uncle I just realized when he lived we have heard stories about him forever I'm trying he don't
want to fucking get up early oh really yeah I gotta bring him all the way up here he'll get pissed
my wife said something yesterday because he kept calling every night this week to see the baby
and he wanted us to meet us yesterday in downtown at some fish market and we said
fuck it we couldn't make it we went to get the t-shirts and then we got Cuban food
and we turned them on and come home Mercy was tired you know it's really nice when I get this
like I'm changing my schedule around when I come back when I come back I finally figure that I can't
go to jujitsu's on Tuesday I can't no more so I gotta find something or go to a class that's
Mondays and Wednesday mornings because I'm here 90% of the time so if I go to a class on Monday
and Wednesday mornings the next nine weeks I won't be here at all I'll be here for the podcast
that's basically just the fucking podcast you know the two podcast so I'm really happy
we could still get to do that but no I think about my father every day I have no pictures of him
really I gave the last picture away and I left something bolder and I think my sister said she
might have some pictures in Cuba so I've been going back and I hope my sister got this letter
it took me three weeks to write a letter in Spanish oh wow three fucking weeks to write this
letter and mail it why did you write a letter like if you just want to write a letter send the
pictures of the baby you know all the shit that's going on I said I made a copies of movie pictures
and send her a few of those you know you gotta she's my fucking sister dog oh I know that I'm just
I'm just like you like I shouldn't even be surprised because it's you but it's like
with the days of email and phone calls like I understand the picture part of it but just
writing a handwritten letters there's no emails in Cuba I can't email really they don't have no
access to the internet wow I don't think they could communicate I think I know like my cousins

oh really what time is your flight my flight's at nine o'clock tonight you know what I'm saying
who why are you doing that taking a red eye taking a chance columbus did I switched it around
okay um I was at 7 11 the other day and I thought I always think of you when I see annoying shit
there were these three kids we're not kids they're probably maybe maybe my age a little bit younger
but they each got a 12 pack of corona bottles but they each paid separately and there's like a huge
line because of it and it like it just that all that stuff kills me it's like when I just
one person paying and then you pay him back and I every time I see stuff like that I'm like I wonder
what Joey would do here I tell you what was crazy I tell you what whenever I go to 7 11 I go for the
waters I gotta get a bottle of water uh water melton zero calorie water or I get uh a blue
cigarette or I get coffee that's all I get at 7 11 yeah I don't mingle with nothing else
sometimes I go in there to buy water and I feel fucking pissed off you know because
there's always 20 000 fucking people in there the guy's got a turban you know he don't know
no english you know he's plotting against america you know you know he's plotting against america
they're selling those broken radioactive hot dogs and shit but there's always at the one I go to
there's always some fucking people trying to get a lottery ticket like that's gonna change their
fucking world that shit drives me crazy yeah they go in there and they get 50 scratch arms
these scratches are weird this I mean and whenever anyone wins with the scratchers
like you see them take their money their winnings and buy more scratchers it's like why not why not
quit when you're ahead oh my god they get a fat and they slow you to fuck them let me get the
numbers two nine eight 48 66 94 I'm like what the fuck you know it's like no no no and you
and you feel bad for them because listen man anything could happen in in this life I don't
mind if you go in and buy two scratches a week and one day you win twenty seven thousand dollars
you really want something you really want something yeah but if you go in there every
week and buy 50 scratches a day and a lottery ticket here and you're gonna fucking win but
you didn't really win because at the end of the week when you add it all up you're gonna notice
by the time you got in your car and went down there and drove it's it's such a it's such a gamble
man and I always believe if you're gonna gamble gamble on yourself I don't know why you know
thank fucking god I didn't get bit by the gambling bug early because I was doomed for it at that age
all my buddies thought it was cool to fucking gamble and lose money and have a bookie and pay him
and my book shows up at my job and he's cool ain't a fucking cool so I'm gonna take your money
because you bet on the wrong fucking black people the fuck is wrong with you what the fuck is wrong
with you you bet on the wrong black people and fucking now you gotta pay up ain't that a fucking
bitch ain't that a fucking anyway I gotta catch myself and I got nothing against black people
you guys control sports I'm saying how it is you know I'm saying you bet on the wrong back
black people if you bet baseball you're on the board you bet on the wrong board of recantin
same difference you know what's up with you what do you got to ask me am I excited to go to Boston
fuck yeah you and I both know how I feel about Boston yeah you go it's too bad it's too bad
baseball hasn't started yet well let me know would you since would you go to a family park
if you had the chance if the season had started if the situation was perfectly yes I would do
anything but it's like when I go out of town people want me to do jiu jitsu that's I want to do it
too what if Saturday I got two sold out shows I gotta do jiu jitsu and I break my ankle
what if god forbid I break a toe I break a finger somebody knees me in the face and
break it might it might not happen it might not ever happen but it could happen what if on the way
to Fenway somebody says fuck you you fucking Jew bag and I throw a fucking popcorn at him and I go to
jail so do you understand from what perspective I look at things sometimes especially when I'm on
the road I got a commitment you know how embarrassing it would be for me for me to get in
trouble on the road which happens to guys like me I've been known to get in trouble on the road
I gotta rest the night a hole I gotta rest in a few places on show day on game time you know
so what if I go to a game it's a great game and I'm gonna Fenway Park yelling and screaming I
lose my fucking voice I go to Fenway Park it's to leave it there motherfucker I'm Cuban I'm Cuban
bitch I'm not gonna go there and sit you know and basically whoever they play they're not gonna
be as favorite to me as the Boston Red Sox in my heart so I gotta yell for the Red Sox yeah no yeah
what's going on I call them oh shit good morning sir good morning look at mr. Evan with a with a
with a a sugar drink in his hand I guarantee you get one of those energy drinks in your hand
you got you got your gear on you're ready to go aren't you I'm ready to go let me get that
how are you today sir I'm doing well thank you very much for doing this John Evan first of all
for you guys that don't know John Evan he's one of the we met because basically John Evan made the
final push and got me into jiu-jitsu over at VMAX so I owe my life to John Evan uh John Evan I went
over to VMAX one day in the afternoon I had gone over there at night and I got really intimidated
I went over in the daytime and you uh walked over to me and I had street clothes on like a pair of
shorts and a t-shirt and you're like hey how you doing my name is John if you have any questions
and you walked away and you go hey if you want to come on the mat you're more than welcome I'm
like look at this fucking guy he doesn't even care I don't have a G he knows his stuff so well
that he knows that if he gets me for one hour I'm going to be fucking hooked and I came back
like a week late I signed with John Budd and here we are on the phone I'm one of your biggest fans
John Evan so what's happening baby nothing much just training uh I've got a bunch of good students
like yourselves so I'm a happy guy and you're presently at Cabrinias we always have this conversation
yes yes I am uh I'm at Cabrinias and uh training everyone's getting ready for the Pan Am so it's
uh it's pretty brutal training but it's good now one of the Pan Americans the Pan Am's
yeah yeah Pan American championships are happening I believe on the 12th and I started on I think it's
the 12th of March uh in Irvine okay and it's uh are you believe it's the second biggest tournament
in the world for jiu-jitsu for brazil and jiu-jitsu so a lot of guys come up from brazil
what's the first one the biggest yes is the uh the world which is only about
two months later I believe I'm going I'll be in june it's in july correct
is that is that the one in july okay oh you're thinking of the the Gracie world the Gracie
world that's the one I'll be at San Jose yeah there's a bunch of different worlds no there's the
IBJJF worlds and they also the IBJJF also run uh the Pan American games too which is it's
international brazilian jiu-jitsu foundation the Gracie worlds are run by a different Gracie
though so uh yeah there's so many Gracie's that they all have their own tournaments now
so where are the worlds taking place at the world during Long Beach at the the welter pyramid which
is a great venue I don't know if you've been to it no well it's really nice um everything's new
and it's huge plenty of seating and a lot of people if you haven't gone to the world so I highly
recommend it because all the brazilians fly up and they fly up with their teammates and it was crazy
the first time I went to the world was there in Long Beach and I didn't realize that uh the teams
they're separate teams like the Gracie Baja Alliance um a bunch of different teams and they
sit they usually wear their teams shirt for the worlds and they'll sit in one section of the bleachers
and during the finals they'll start chanting at each other back and forth for their fighters that
are facing each other on the mat and it's really crazy like they'll sing and chant and it gets a
little heated but it's pretty cool so now this Pan Am are you also gonna be uh what's the word
I'm looking for are you gonna be fighting in them uh I was planning on it I still may do it I did
hurt my back I just missed a week a straight week just a few days ago so I am back now though
everything's good if I'm in cardio shape then at the end of this week I think I'm gonna sign up
and what's cardio shape for you when it comes to jujitsu oh man it's not uh I don't know if
a lot of people have trained before maybe that that listened to your show but cardio shape is
is pretty intense like if you're in good cardio shape it's not just like what you can do in the
gym because in the gym we roll maybe when Cabrini sets the timer you roll 10 minute rounds it just
really long like typically most people roll around five minute rounds maybe seven minute
rounds we roll 10 minute rounds and we roll six of them in a row without stopping or maybe more
you just change partners every 10 minutes which is pretty brutal but that's not even being
in cardio shape because you can do that in the gym but when you go out to a tournament and you
start competing the nerves just kill your cardio so if you can do that in the gym you think you're
going to be good you go out to a tournament and you might be dog tired in the first two minutes
of the match so you have to really push your cardio to the next level in order to keep fighting
through so it's amazing that uh it was around me for the last 10 years you know and I always
I don't know I was more of a striker you know I was raised in the 70s where everything was more
striking Bruce Lee and karate and kung fu and I don't know what made me walk into V-MAC I was
frustrated with the kickboxing it wasn't doing anything for me you know it was helping my
cardio a little bit plus I had an ear infection at the time from flying and it's a weird thing
when I'm in a small area the echoes make me dizzy I get like uh not lumbago what's that
stuff you get where you get dizzy all the time there's a vertigo vertigo that's what I would get
oh wow so it was just every time I go in there there was so much echo at this little gym
that it would drive my ears crazy I can't tell you how I don't know what it was I never had that
sensation before and there was a kid there named Ramon here I've known that he bravo and
Tate Fletcher and Alberto Crane and you know I bumped into Marcelo Garcia at comedy events
because he's friends with Joe when I've had conversations and I never thought about the
jujitsu till that one night I drove by and I saw a V-MAC and I go I have no excuses I'm right down
the corner I mean even if my fucking car breaks down I could walk there and John Evan you know
it I'm not here to lie nobody the first 30 days was the hardest thing I ever went through in my
life John Evan you know it you know John Evan I was having a hard fucking time I was doubting myself
how it was wrong well you know that's not uncommon though I mean the the reason that I stuck with
jujitsu is because I got smashed like hard hardcore smash maybe my first whole week of
class of course he gets smashed for your first six months or so but it gets a way easier after
that but the first week I got smashed so bad that I was just like how how could someone my size
make me feel that horrible and I want to know how to do that so it's not uh you know it's no
knock on you it's just when you're new to it it's creepy I was I I mean I would get heart attacks
by the hip escapes as soon as you said hip escapes my blood pressure would just skyrocket
and I was in the testosterone I would go over there and it was just killing me my my anxiety was
to a different level you know sometimes I would forget and I'd eat a pot out of a bowl in the
daytime and I'd go to one of the night classes and my whole world would be turned around because
once the marijuana tells you you're gonna have a heart attack you're gonna have a heart attack I
mean it's in I would have to take my G top off and run outside and yeah it took me three months of
mental like like every time I would put my knee pads on and then my G pads like I would say a
prayer like God please if I'm gonna die today you know make it be get hit by a fucking car not by
a hip escape I don't want to die on the mat and then one day I just got off the testosterone I put
my faith in you I went to a v-max had a little tournament and I uh walked in there and you were
there on a Sunday I had flown in from somewhere and I went and I was just amazed I had gone to
karate tournaments and I had been to UFC events but to see a small competition I understood where
these guys were coming from because I know what hard work is true comedy it's the same thing
you're going to perform John Evan I'm going to perform it's the same nerves John Evan yeah and
anyone I mean I've never done stand-up comedy or anything and I think most people can relate with
the fear of public speaking just for anyone it's I think it's the greatest fear of adults which is
crazy to me but it's it's true it's it's scary and especially there's like stand-up comedy I could
only imagine it's just one person and you have to be funny for all these other people your heart's
got to be in your throat and same thing if you haven't competed in a combat sport it's very very
nerve-wracking and a small tournament you would think it would be better but it's nearly worse
because there's this weird kind of informality to it which makes it feel like a backyard thing
it's grassroots yeah it's grassroots so I felt the fear when I walked in and that's what made me fall
in love with jiu-jitsu that day that it was no different from what I was doing hey listen man
when I first got into comedy John Evan I'd show up to get fucking booed I didn't get booed but I
didn't get no laps what's the fucking difference John Evan what's the difference John Evan yeah
so then you go to now you get on stage 10 times a month and basically you're getting booed nine out
of the 10 but the more you go John Evan now the booze become less you get eight booze a month
then seven booze a month then six booze a month and then pretty soon you're gonna get
booed twice a month that's gonna happen I don't care how good you are but you stick with it and
that's why I stuck with jiu-jitsu because I could understand the fear of doing stand-up but to me
it's second nature I'll get up at a fucking 7-eleven and do it if you dare me I of the fear of fighting
in public or wrestling in public to me is fucking embarrassing not in a class setting
I love getting choked out in the class setting but if I was going to a tournament like the worlds or
anything even that little one that I was at with you I'd be shitting my pants I'd be farting I'd
have anxiety I've had pee stains on my gi because I pee my pants now before I go on stage from fear
so I don't know how you guys do it I think you just described my first tournament experience
okay it's terrifying it's it's horrible and I didn't I had never competed in these any
combat sports before and when I did my first one I'd only been training two months and I had no
idea what I was doing they just said hey you should go do this and I was like all right it won't be
that nerve-wracking I just showed up to the gym it was an in-house tournament but we invited
other gyms over local and just showing up to the gym and just walking inside like I thought I was
going to puke oh I felt so bad and it just feels like you're going to be in like a real fight even
though you know like oh I'll just shake hands with this guy and we might go have a beer afterwards
but just for some reason your body is like this is a real fight and you're fighting for your life
and you should be scared and it's very freaky but uh yeah it's very nerve-wracking stuff and it
makes you incredibly tired right away one thing about you that I really admire and uh for Lee that
has Lee's my co-host to find you say hello Lee to John Evan hey John how are you doing he's a great
man John Evan one thing that uh really gets me going about you John Evan I'm a big fan of yours
is that I dedicate my life to stand up Lee's dedicating his life to podcasting and producing
my albums and whatnot you dedicated your life to jiu-jitsu you're a young man you teach it
you personal train you perform you know uh how does this make you feel I would be in heaven
um it's uh you know you I wouldn't recommend getting into jiu-jitsu for the money because
there's just not a lot of that in it but um I mean I'm I'm I was always a nerdy kid and I'm a nerdy
adult and I like the ins and outs of you know they they make comparisons to chess with jiu-jitsu and
it's just a very technical sport and I love that about it my OCD just kind of goes crazy and I have
to know everything um and then that with the competition side of it oh it's just fantastic so
even though you know I'm just scraping by I'm doing what I love every day so really probably
the best spot I've ever been in in my life which is a really nice thing to be able to say
but you do videos you uh you do commentary I read you know I've never seen you do the commentary but
I know you do YouTube videos uh you started a tournament where you're doing your backyard which
I fucking think is tremendous I think it's the great I wish I would be home when I was home
you didn't have it I would go just on a Wednesday just to watch and it's the same thing we're doing
we're just trying to feed ourselves here every day you do it differently you do it with something
that maybe there's no money in but the satisfaction level is just superb I mean you're the basically
only guy called when I can't make a jujitsu class because I love how you teach I was thinking about
your warm-ups the other day I used the single like takedowns I knew nothing about that I knew
nothing about takedowns I was scared of doing them you made them so simple and now you said
something to me at that tournament that was what a good friend says or a good teacher or somebody
who you're gonna work with you looked at me and I go you know I love to be doing something like this
and you said it's gonna be a lot of hard work you know it's gonna take you like 18 months I remember
getting the car going 18 fucking months and then I thought about my stand-up I'm taking jujitsu
just how I did my stand-up it took me 20 years to really find the in and out so I worked hard at it
it's gonna take me the same amount of time jujitsu to fucking figure it out and on Sunday
I saw Danny and Asanto rolling
can you believe that I never even knew about that I thought he had like a blue belt or a purple
belt in uh jujitsu I think he's been training a long time from from what I what I remember I
mean he was training for a long time even when I started training and I started training seven
years ago so um I'm sure he's been training all along he must be pretty knowledgeable by this point
fuck he was there with Bruce Lee I mean he's you gotta know a thing or two I mean not about jujitsu
but I mean he understands the martial arts so he must be picking it up real easy but just to see
him rolling at 70 and what his body looked like but most importantly what his mind was like he was a
sharp guy he's a sharp guy at 70 so that's it John Devin I'm just uh I'm a big fan man I've
wanted you to call for a long time and you know you're just your approach to teaching why do you
have that approach that you break it down and I've never worked at nobody else in jujitsu they tell
you put a foot here put it on there and do this you tell me why to put the arm there why not to
put the arm there where did you get that teaching style from uh probably just good teachers for
myself you know like um my uh I love education just in general um when I went to college I hated
the whole lecture notes format I think that's a terrible way to learn unless that's particularly
the way that you learn things like um everyone learns things differently uh and depending on
depending on uh what your personality's like um you know are you a kinetic learner do you learn
by moving and are you a visual learner do you have to see something you have to read something
that everyone's different so to try to throw a blanket over it and then label people as dumb
or whatever if they can't pick it up then I think that's just the worst way to go about things and
that always frustrated me um but then when jujitsu came along I had some really great teachers uh my
old teacher Sean Williams a fantastic teacher to really explain things well and uh just break it down
for anyone so if you didn't get it he would say something and then you'd get it um my teacher now
could bring you an amazing teacher just really knows the ins and outs of the game and if he had
questions he'll just sit there and answer them for you it doesn't matter you know if you feel that
they're stupid or if it's just a tiny little variation or you have 40 questions you'll answer
them all and I think that is really important because some things come naturally to some people
and some things are just tougher but uh we'll learn at our own pace it's just important to make
sure that everyone can learn whatever you're showing that day so um I don't know it helped me a lot
and I would love to be able to help other people with jujitsu especially it's so technical too so
if I can do that then um I'm pretty happy it's really the other day I went to that workshop
and he was talking about a student in Brazil when he first started teaching him and one of
his brothers I don't know which one of the brothers he and Machado was talking about and he said that
they had a student that he goes he hated to say it he was one of the dumbest people he had ever
tried to teach that every day he had to ask 30 000 questions and the next day he still didn't
know the technique well finally after like five years he picked up a sweep but he did that sweep
so good he told he said the guy's name and the guy won the worlds four years later or something like
that and that's how he won the world he did the sweep eight times or something to eight different
opponents or something and even though they knew he was coming his sweep was so good because he just
fell in love with that one sweep and he just focused on that one sweep or something and he
goes he was just killing I forgot the guy's name he said but uh it's amazing that there's a lot of
moves in jujitsu I can't do and there's a lot of moves that I could do and you take the things
that you could do and you practice them it's so weird there's a lot of moves I can't do you know
and and there's times that I get ashamed or something that I feel bad but then I go wait a
second you always come in with a variation and you get me to one point where I could work it from
that point even though I didn't know I could do it because of my size or my girth or whatever so
there's a lot of people out there that ever since I've been talking about jujitsu on the show John
Evan they've been hitting me back and going because of you I walked in to a jujitsu thing and I do it
now and I just wanted to have you on to let people know that it's very easy it's just getting down
there you shouldn't be ashamed that every size works there's something for every size in jujitsu
absolutely I mean that's in my opinion that is the best thing about jujitsu it's for everyone
it was made originally for the weak the feeble to not not to come to bigger bullies and that carries
forward but of course today it's the same thing but also now if you're bigger if you're athletic if
you're lengthier if you're smaller it doesn't matter everyone can do jujitsu and sure there's
something that you have to modify like if somebody has a bulging disc on their neck
we're not going to play a lot of inverted guard or maybe they can't play any inverted guard because
it's going to be too much pressure on their neck but maybe they can use a butterfly sweep or they
just roll up on their shoulder instead of all the way back onto the neck and that still works for
them so you know there's always going to be obstacles but I think through trying to work through
the sticking points and then also slightly adjusting the game for that specific person
anyone can do it and that's what's so great about it
John now what are the what's the videos that you post up on are they instruct on videos or you do
commentary on videos uh both both I do made my main the main thing that I do um I started a
bjj breakdown just Brazilian jujitsu breakdown um I started it because I wanted to put commentary on
high level tournament matches and mainly because I was injured um getting older you know get get
injured a little bit more and I had a bunch of downtime and in my downtime I like to keep visualizing
keep drilling jujitsu so I'll watch a lot of tournament matches because it's really good to
see what all the top level guys are doing but I also thought well I really I mean it was about
two years in where I looked at one of the matches from the worlds and I was launching it and the
black belt match and I had no idea what was going on and I've been training for two years and I had
no clue what was happening and that was crazy to me so then you know only about like years or later
I started to realize like wow I I know a lot of what's going on now and then maybe a year or two
later I kind of knew almost everything of what was going on and I figured by throwing commentary
over these high level matches I can help anyone who doesn't train or is just interested in training
or even people that have been training a while to see everything that I'm seeing and at least put
context to it so it makes sense and it doesn't look like two guys sitting there hugging in pajamas
um so that's that was my goal and that's the main thing that I do with BJJ breakdown but
we also for the people that do train we do uh instructionals as well I threw up one with one
of my teammates Isaac Doderlein who just won the Europeans at Brown Belt because phenomenal and he
shows a flying leg drag and it came out pretty well so I'm happy with that
and where can they find this stuff John Evan? Yeah so the best way to find it is either uh
at my youtube page directly which is youtube.com slash bjj breakdown or you can go to bjjbreakdown.com
um or like me on facebook I have a facebook page for bjj breakdown so any one of those
John Evan you're a great guy and a great teacher and you've helped me a ton you know
I continue you know I'll be your student forever brother so I just want to have you on and let the
people know and if you want to you know John to train you if you're in town visiting or you want
to try uh John to tighten your moves up how do they get a hold of you on facebook correct?
Yeah you can just hit me up on facebook or you can send me an email my email is John
at jlhns at bjjbreakdown.com so nice and simple you're beautiful John Evan I'm happy you woke up
early to do this I love you no I seriously I mean it's it's students like you like people that
you know it doesn't matter you just have a positive attitude towards it doesn't matter if you're
taking a long time to learn something or you learn it right away but you know you're gonna
learn it or you'll tweak it some way to learn it just a good attitude and you just keep plugging
away at it and I mean stuff like that is for a teacher it just is so rewarding it makes it all
worth it so I really really appreciate you and students like you it's uh it really makes makes
me feel complete when I'm teaching you know you know there was an article floating around facebook
a couple weeks ago about the nine things that your teacher doesn't want you to know did you
get to take a look at that stupidity yes I did I did and it's really weird what what it's become
but uh thank you for keeping it real thank you for genuinely caring which is what I feel from you
you genuinely care and uh that that that you can't put a price tag on that that's uh that that shows
you're a great teacher so thank you for waking up early and calling and John Evan you're a gentleman
the scholar I got the utmost respect for you man oh you guys too thank you so much I really
really appreciate it thank you buddy have a great day and we'll talk during the week I'm headed to
Boston so okay well good luck there you got it my man all right thanks thank you
seriously man he's a great guy if you guys live in the LA area and you want to come up on a saturday
and train with him on a sunday he takes you right through his garage he's got the match right there
really fuck yeah man he's uh he's a neat guy doesn't drink doesn't do drugs likes death medal you
know he's a true nerd you know uh you know he's only supposed to teach from 12 30 to 130 on
tuesdays and thursdays he stays till three he rolls with you he you know and for a fat guy man
and we have these doubts you know I always have fucking every time but I had to eat up my fucking
stupidity and I tell you I know I could do this till I'm 70 you know I want to live to see mercy be
70 I want to at least be 20 to have a direction you know I don't want her to and this is the only
way I think I'll keep my heart going and my legs and my joints and my flexibility I'm not I was
still thinking about the stuff I learned on sunday I'm not going to be able to do that to people
but it's not that it's seeing people in the 70s still do this we could buy ourselves an extra
fucking 20 years you know and listen man I I'm ashamed as fuck I'm so ashamed that I have to uh
like I breathe I go crazy so what I do is whenever I go to jujitsu I go 20 minutes early
and when there's nobody there I run around and I do hip escapes and I do spider things on the wall
so I can breathe like a hyperventilate before everybody gets there when I go work out like the
other day I was doing the kettlebells in the morning and I was still sore from sunday and I
went in there fucking monday morning and by the third set of swings league I get like the skunk
sweat okay it's two it's two sets it's 20 minutes it's like eight minutes of uncountability where
I have doubts with my life and I have to keep going to the island of serenity it's like the sweat
and it hits all over my body sometimes you just sweat out of your head sometimes you sweat out of
your armpits this is a sweat that I could feel the sweat in the back of my knees it's fear sweat
okay you know because my body goes into fear that something's happening you know I'm 300
fucking pounds I'm moving 300 fucking pounds if you pick up two things the cat liver that's 70
pounds walk around with that you're like god damn plus your weight I'm walking around with 300 I'm
going in there not sometimes I don't get uh I don't get I get discouraged because I'm not learning
the moves fast enough my fucking hip escapes now are greatly I couldn't do and now I can hip escape
and I'm using this and you know I keep getting these emails people saying you look a lot better
you you seem more confident every time I walk into that jujitsu when I walk out I feel a lot better
about myself I don't even give a fuck if I get choked out I don't even worry about that if I do
one thing right in class and if I learn one thing and if my shirt I have a gray shirt I wear which
is ripped I gotta get a new one a Nike shirt sleeveless underneath okay I don't fit in a fucking
rash guard it was it was so tight I couldn't breathe as it is so it's so weird how uh if I don't see
sweat all the way down to my fucking belly button like that shirt is covered I gotta take that motherfucker
off and throw in the bag and hang it up before I put it in the hamper like that's what I go to
jujitsu for because I know I get that real man sweat that that fucking uh that wrestler's sweat
yeah that wrestler's sweat fucking is that's the shape you can smell the bacon you smell the meat
loaf you smell the mashed potatoes and the french fries anyway I want to thank John Evan and I'm
definitely serious if you want a good cheap trainer and you live in the LA in the valley
he's a great guy man and he knows you know I went to a couple of personal guys for jujitsu
and they were teaching me a few moves they were beating me up and I was going home not with John
Evan with John Evan you talk for a little while he makes you do he makes you raise your heartbeat
he makes you do a lot of warm-ups a lot of drills like I was like Jesus fucking Christ John Evan
I gotta plan in three hours he didn't give a fuck then he teaches you something and he drills it
80 fucking times from three different situations and this is what's going to happen by that time
you're dying then he's like no let's do this side now you do that side and then he has you
roll with him a little bit he lets you know so by the time you get out of there it's it's a it's a
you know most people do an hour on the dot with him it's an hour and a half and while you're walking
to your car you're thinking about shooting yourself you're like I can't feel that work you know he
works you I've been to other guys that little goggy lally they don't want to lose you a lot of
personal trainers don't want to lose you so they don't push you they want John Evan's like if you
can't take this don't come back you know and it's good because he's your friend he's telling you
that this is and he doesn't he's not really working yeah I was just that bad a shape all he was making
me do was do like hip escapes jumping jacks and then do some other drills but the one that was
killing me was getting up getting up Lee yeah I mean it's it's from your back he would make me rock
and then and then he did it he goes no no no let's do this so I met with him for like six weeks in
the row I'm like Wednesday mornings and he would make me just get to one knee one knee then he went
up to two knees then three knees then he's like all right do both sides three times that killed me
Lee three times I'm 50 years old I ain't gonna lie nobody on the air now I get the 10 times on each
side but when I started with him Lee I couldn't even get up I couldn't even get up Lee 51 years old
50 year old man can't fucking get up with some Puerto Ricans taking me now at least I know how
to get up I can get up and drop on one so it's a little things guys I hate the heart upon this
