But anyway, the rest of Toronto was cool.
Let's do this.
Let's back up so people know.
Let's back up.
You started as a chef where?
I started in Kensington Market.
Did you really?
Yeah.
Where was the restaurant?
Is it still there?
No, it moved.
It was there for a long time.
It was called La Palette.
I started on Queen Street first at a French bistro called la select bistro which is
now on wellington um worked there for two years this is probably 2002 after uh college or whatever
cooking school and all that bullshit and then fucking let's selectistro. La Palette was a very bohemian French restaurant
in Kensington Market.
And that's where I really learned,
like that's like the life shit.
That was like a very bohemian,
druggie, hippie, fucking, you know,
very like gypsy-like,
very, I don't think you can say people can pay with their pay with like uh
no not that end of it just like the people that weren't shemez and maria that owned it shemez was
like this tall pakistani man he would wear like the turban for like looks fashion very like a
handsome tall strong pakistani man yeah his wife maria East Block, like artist.
And just like incredible couple.
Very, very passionate.
Very, I was a young drugged out chef.
So they used to like manipulate me a lot and their staff.
It was a lot of like, a lot of personality, I'll say.
Did they hold that against you?
Were you heavy into drugs at the time when you were cooking?
I've been heavy into drugs from like 15 damn and and i i was heavy into drugs before like i say 15 because that's why i started doing like cocaine and shit but like when i was like did you start
with cocaine no i started with acid acid you started with fucking acid acid at grade eight
so first time i ever did acid was in grade eight with matt sex meth shout out to matt sex matt
matt and we were just like painting our nails black, dyed hair, like listen to like Marilyn Manson,
like trying to fucking play with each other, you know, just high on acid, getting real
criddly.
And then it just like, you know, it just.
It escalated.
Yeah.

wellness world she like uh helps like children with uh you know deformed heads and stuff i think

His head was weird.
We got the fucking suction head.
So Mac's got a fucking
all fucked up head.
And I'm like, dude,

when i was but it wasn't like we were in the bathroom together i walked in the bathroom you
just saw it yeah he was shaving and his dick was out and i remember you remember it like i remember
it vividly i could draw it right now for you yeah perfect veins and everything i remember how
intimidated it was because how when you're when you're a boy, how small your penis is.
And then your dad's penis
is gigantic.
Your dad's penis,
it's the biggest penis
you've ever seen.
Massive, beautiful pubes.
And then you see porn
when you get older
and you're like,
my dad has a very small penis.
Very small.
My penis is small.
What does it do?
And you start measuring
and you're like,
is it two hands?
No.
Can I see the foreskin?
Two fingers.
Just two fingers and a thumb.
That's it.
Two fingers and a thumb. And you pinch it. That's a hook kick. I mostly pinch it. Can I see the foreskin? Two fingers. Just two fingers and a thumb. That's it. Two fingers and a thumb.
And you pinch it.
That's a hook kick.
I mostly pinch it.
But I think for the kids, you've got to cut them off at some point because then it gets weird.
It gets weird.
Yeah.
I don't want it to be weird.
I want my kid to be...
I want my family to be so normal.
Yeah.
I just want it to be normal.
So are you a child of addiction?
Were your parents ever...
No.
Was there anybody in your family?
Here we go.
Here we go, baby.
You want to... Because I am a kid we go. Here we go, baby.
Because I am a kid of addiction.
I grow up strict Mormon.
Oh, shit.
Then my parents got the knock on the door.
My dad lets him in.
My dad's a conversationalist. My dad's like a fucking purebred science,
fucking very highly intelligent entrepreneur,
U.S. patents of medical laser equipment,
like highly intelligent man.
Very, very intelligent.
But he drinks the Kool-Aid somehow.
A lot of people do, man.
They knock on the door, he feels the Holy Spirit,
and all of a sudden our entire lives,
like it's amazing.
So we grow up highly involved in the Mormon church.
Like you as well.
Born into it. Born into it born into it 13 years wow
boom we moved the thing and the only reason that we are not mormon and it took we're fully
excommunicated oh so they don't fuck with you anymore we don't fuck with them wow it took years
of like real real lawyer type stuff and like like you got to get fully.
Pulled away.
Pulled away.
All the files, our names, the history.
All that kind of shit taken out.
And the fucking thing is that, you know, we lived in Nova Scotia.
And the church was massive.
Like you'd go there.
It's like Super Bowl Sunday Mormons.
Like packed.
And church on Sunday for Mormons is like eight hours.
It's like a day.
Eight hours?
It's like going to school for a day.
But you leave and come back or no?
Yeah, you do the fucking shit.
The big,
like a full normal church session.
Then you go and do school.
And then you go and do all this other,
and then you go back
and do another full session. And then the fucking, you got the big screen with the tabernacle choir
fucking screaming at you wow and there's like dude it's crazy the three levels of heaven and i was
like a piece of shit kid like from day one i never drank the kool-aid i don't know what three levels
of heaven is by the way dude there's like the celestial kingdom all these different fucking
things okay would you not even get you wouldn't. I was like, I'm in the lowest one
because I was a fat little kid
that used to steal chocolate bars
or steal a kid's bike
or beat the fuck out of a kid.
That sounds like heaven to me.
It sounds like you were in heaven already.
I would steal chocolate bars
and steal people's bikes.
And like,
you know,
like grade five.
Dude,
in grade four,
I got brought home by the police
because I pulled a knife
that I stole.
Damn.
I stole this knife
and I pulled a knife on a kid
and I got brought home by the kid and I got home by the police
And I was just like, you know, the kid was making fun of me and fucking I had a little knife on me
But I was
Stabbing kids
No, but the best thing ever is it's like we move out of Nova Scotia my dad's business his company is brought
He has to go to this new factory
that's developing this air filtration system
for these beds he's designing to heal bed
wounds. And we move...
Like bed sores and shit? Oh, yeah.
And so he makes these
beds, whatever. And we moved to
Fort Erie. Now where is Fort Erie
in comparison? That's where I live now.
And so in grade five, we moved there
and there we fucking
everything just came like unraveled because there was no church we went there we would go to the
church and there's like eight fucking cracked out families trying to like get saved where like
before we were like my dad was like a high deacon we we rolled we sat on the same fucking bench as
the bishop's family like every Sunday we fucking bench as the bishop's family.
Every Sunday we had dinner with the bishop's family.
We were like the Mathesons were like Mormon fucking super troopers.
So wait.
Was it like a socialite thing for your parents at some point?
They were kind of the upper echelon of the church?
I think my dad really enjoyed the history of it.
My dad really enjoyed the family tree aspect of it.
There's all this fucking weird shit. I remember we would get two bucks a week for fucking allowance and we would have to give our
fucking 20 right off top to the fucking pence to the shut up church my dad would every weekend we
would fucking put it you get a little envelope you put in your fucking 20 cents that 20 cents
is going towards i was like i need my fucking two bucks it's a kid from day one but they trained
that's what they trained you to give the brain wants you to do that yeah but it's all crazy but
it's even like when my sister dude you dude, you're going to love this.
My sister got excommunicated.
The whole thing that started really triggering the full crazy, because we stopped going to
church, whatever.
We grew out of it.
Sure.
The congregation is like, whatever, weak as fuck.
And my dad's like, this is fucking weak as fuck.
This ain't fucking.
That's what he said when he left.
He's like, fuck this shit.
It's weak as fuck.
I'm out.
Yeah, you Mormon fucking posers out here. This is fucking weak as fuck. Fort Erie that's what he said when he left he's like fuck this shit's weak as fuck i'm out you mormon fucking posers out here this is fucking weak as fuck fort area
ain't got no god game fuck you i'm out i'm gonna go to hooters and fucking start drinking like
non-alcoholic that's my church yeah hooters dude my dad straight up i remember he took us to hooters
and our minds were blown that's why we knew shit was changing we went to because it's 40 years right
next to buffalo new york right so we would go to Buffalo all the time.
And we're in Buffalo.
My dad's like, let's go eat at Hooters.
And we're like, excuse me?
With your mom?
With my mom.
Family dinner.
Let's go to Hooters, eat, slam some wings.
And we go.
And my dad orders a fucking non-alcoholic beer.
And me and my brothers are just like, what the fuck is going on?
What, do you think something happened?
I don't even, dude.
Would you imagine there was a catalyst between your parents that like something clicked and it was like, I don't want to do this shit anymore?
I think they just pulled out.
I think we as a family were like kind of, we were all teenage, like I'm 13.
Yeah.
So it was like kind of like the rough patch of like the community needing help and making casseroles and cakes and like.
Oh, shit.
Like I was never allowed to sleep at
anybody's house growing up you know like no sleepovers because they weren't more like my
parents were like you're not sleeping that person you're gonna get fucking molested you're gonna get
like you know like no way you're going over there will you dispel some rumors for me then yeah okay
so because i know these are kind of annoying but but i really don't know is is no caffeine real is
that real 100 so no caffeine at? My parents were hardcore about that.
I never had sugar.
No sugar, no caffeine, no coke, no coffee.
Yeah, no, straight up.
None of that shit.
I never had a Coca-Cola in my life.
To this day?
No, no, no.
Until then.
Until like 13, and then I just started.
Then you found Coca-Cola and acid.
Yeah, just like acid.
Right, it's the best thing in the world.
And then what about like,
there's different sections of Mormons that promote multiple wives, right? Yeah, that's like Orthodox. That's the best thing in the world. And then what about like, there's different sections of Mormons
that promote multiple wives, right?
But that's not all of them.
That's the same as like Hasidic Jews
and Orthodox.
Like there's like hardcore old school,
old world testament motherfuckers
that have the wives
and they look like almost like Mennonites
and like they wear the dresses
and they have the multiple wives.
And there's definitely like,
I think the reason that there's like
even four kids in my family is like the church. the multiple wives and like there's definitely like i think the reason that there's like even
four kids in my family is like the church that's why people have kids like the church wants you to
have keep it going members yeah they want members my wife's dad was a mennonite and i know almost
nothing about them other than it scares the shit out of me dude mennonites are for real yeah that's
legit shit they're like that's like some anyone that can actually build a barn yeah and like withstand his like contribute to society the way that they are they're the most powerful people i
know they they're like yeah cool you got instagram i just made a cornfield i harvested a cornfield
with a horse you fucking lazy loser you can't even change your oil yeah what is it what what
is he made by the way he made half of. He helped us rebuild half this fucking house with his two hands.
He's incredible.
But he got away from the Mennonite religion because the staunchness of it is insane.
They can't do shit.
It's like anything.
It's just too much of anything is not good.
Right.
And it's just like same with Mormons.
It's like my sister got knocked out, whatever, had cam when she was like 19.
Were your parents pissed?
Kicked out of the house.
Yeah, they were fucking mad.
She was a whore.
I remember like my-
Did they say that shit to her?
Dude, I remember she was kicked out of the house
and it was right at the time
that we were leaving provinces.
We skipped, you know, we went from Nova Scotia
to Ontario.
Ontario, yeah.
Sarah did not move with us when we moved.
That was like a conscious,
you have to stay here type of shit?
Yeah.
Wow.
And so Sarah, and then like months later, I think, you know, my dad quickly realized
what they kind of did.
And he like drove out, picked her up because, you know, her and the guy that she had cam
with, like they split.
Right.
You know, just young kids.
And then we went and got our sister back.
But it was like, it was crazy.
And then she had another kid with this guy, Cale.
And it was crazy.
They wanted to kick her out.
Of the family.
No, they wanted to kick her out of the church.
I think it was like an unrepenting whore because you had two kids out of wedlock.
Is that what they stamp you with?
It was like a thing.
Unrepenting whore? It was like a piece of paper where. Is that what they stamp you with? It was like a thing. Unrepenting whore?
It was like a crazy, it was like a piece of paper where she was going to go in like front
of a tribunal or some shit.
And I remember the missionaries.
Yeah.
They showed up to our house and my older brother is a fucking psychopath.
Like fucking loose cannon, like has hands on him like a motherfucker.
Right.
Like never lost a fight.
Small town.
Like he's like Brad Pitt and Snatch. So he's like um like brad pitt and snatch like so
he's super handsome too yeah he is like he's he is a very sexy skinny like one of those guys it
just ripped naturally yeah i'm like a fat i'm like a piece of shit tied up in the middle you know
like it's just like legitimately like i've always been just a fat kid and then like my younger
brother is legitimately like me like a big built guy and
like my younger brother's kind of shorter and built and like we're all like sturdy like young
none of you look the same no no actually like we don't i'm always like i always used to say that
steve was adopted because he looks like i was just like man i always used to say he was like
matey because he's just like he because he has really dark skin.
And we were in Nova Scotia, so I was like, man, you're like half Micmac,
which is like the tribe out there, which is highly racist, and I'm going to lose it. No, but you know.
As a kid, I was always like, man, you're adopted or something.
And then later on—
Did he buy into it ever?
I don't know.
He's depressed, probably.
Well, my little sister—
We don't look anything alike.
My half-sister is 10, 9 years apart from us.
From me, I mean.
And all the time, like a real piece of shit older brother,
I would constantly drive it into her head over and over.
I'd be like, you know mom and dad found you.
You know that, right?
Dude, so does Lisa.
I would do it so much.
It was so fucking mean that she would cry and get upset
and ask my parents if it was actually real.
And my parents would be like, no, no, that's not true.
And I'd give her the look like, yes, it is.
You're being nice.
When you're 37 and you got fucking two kids, they're going to tell you.
They're going to tell you soon.
I go, just wait.
Just wait until it comes out, man.
And you deserve it.
But we found you for sure.
You deserve to know later in life and your whole life thinking that it was a joke.
It's not a joke.
It's not a joke.

I'd be like, honey, you're my best friend.
Yeah.
And I think we have a good situation.
But I love, me and Ted, man, he's got a car.
I'd suck the skin off his dick
i'd eat his ass like a fucking pipple eat a bowl of cheerios you know like it's just like one of
those things that is just people just need to be more honest because i think it's just like the lie
is usually not the thing it's just like they're not telling that for some reason breaks people's
brains yeah well it broke it broke them i talk about
situation it sucks well i talk about my family all the time on the show or i have before it's
like i think we all start to realize as we get older into your the latter half of your 30s i
think the 30s is when it starts to secrets come out about families and shit starts to get fucked
up it's crazy and you're like whoa we were that's that oh my god this is this isn't what i thought
it was i was a child of addiction. And like, you realize that everybody
has so many flaws like that,
that you just go, oh, we're cool.
I'm fine.
And when you're a kid, you're freaked out
because you're like, what the fuck?
Are we the only people that are like this?
Is everybody else walking their dog
in the lawn, smiling and waving?
You know, like, no,
there's all sorts of fucked up shit.
There's all sorts of fucked up shit.
Yeah.
And that's the thing too is like,
you know, I had like a lot of trauma
happen to me as a kid.
And it's still just like, at a very young age, I knew that it wasn't my fault.
And so then I wasn't like, I didn't have really crazy hang.
I'm an insane person.
I'm a fucking full blown addict.
Yeah.
Full blown fucking drug addict.
But I know how to deal with it now.
Right.
And I know that it wasn't my fault.
And I think a lot of people, especially in this world right now where everything is victim
shit. Victim culture. Yeah. Victim culture is, especially in this world right now where everything is victim shit.
Victim culture, yeah.
Victim culture is just like,
man, I come from gnarly shit.
Yeah.
And it's just like,
it's okay.
If you,
if you,
it's just like,
live your,
if you let them,
if you let yourself be the victim,
then they win again.
Same as if you died
and you didn't tell your wife
about your lover
and your whole other family.
Like, it's like shame on you, actually, man.
But it's just like if you were to just like live your life and just be like, yo.
This is the truth.
Yeah.
It's okay.
We're all good.
I'm not dead.
I'm not dead, man.
It's okay.
We're tough.
Yeah, we'll figure it the fuck out.
Yeah, man.
All these people.
I don't know.
How do you think, what gave you the, like, what was the impetus
for you to kind of get clean
and get all your shit together
and move forward
and become,
because dude,
you're the,
you're probably the,
you're like the,
to me,
the epitome of what it's like
to come out the other side
cleaner than when you went in.
You know what I mean?
Where,
man,
from the little I know of you,
it's like your attitude
is fucking wonderful,
your presence,
you glow, bitch.
I glow.
You glow.
The thing, I've always glowed. The thing, I've always glowed.
You know, I've always glowed.
But shit got you down at some point, right?
Dude, I was crushed.
I was a piece of, I was like, the thing, okay, so I become a chef, right?
I make it to the top.
I'm the big dog.
I'm fucking running my shit.
I'm running restaurants.
People's money, fucking reviews.
I'm successful at being a chef at 27 years old.
That's super young, right?
It's pretty fucking young.
To have multiple restaurants and be a thing, a real chef,
and have notoriety.
You're the king of Toronto at some point.
I'm not the king.
Gentilly's the king.
Shout out to Robbie, our big fucking RG.
But I'm just fucking i'm
doing great but the thing that with chefs nobody says no to you no one can't the rule is yes chef
yes chef yes chef yeah and so quickly you drink the kool-aid and you take the power and you can go different directions. Right. I took that as no one can say no to me.
And now I can have every single drug dealer show up to my restaurant and give them a Cote
de Boeuf and a bottle of wine and make them look real cool in front of their stupid little
girlfriends.
Yeah.
And I get my little eight ball at the end of the night.
Wow.
And so.
Were you ripped while you were cooking?
No.
Never cooked while you were high? No, you can't. I'm not one of the night. Wow. And so- Were you ripped while you were cooking? No. Never cooked while you were high?
No, you can't.
I'm not one of those guys.
I was a very much like
crushed during service.
And then the second-
The moment it closes.
Last dish walks in the bathroom,
shovel, shovel, shovel, shovel, shovel,
chug.
I could chug easily a two six,
a fucking Jameson.
Yeah.
Like very quick. Snort it, chug it. I six of fucking Jameson. Yeah. Like very quick.
I'm just like a fucking trash can.
Would you have benders?
Would you go for days and days and days and days?
Yeah.
Like I was just like, but it was every day.
It was every day for years.
And I'm like a trash can where I'm like, I would do acid.
I would do shrooms.
I would do fucking MDMA.
I would do Coke.

I love a fucking trank.
So just take ketamine, fucking Coke, E, MDMA, smash it up, and put it all into a bag.
And then that was like my fucking – that was my dusty dust.
That was like big daddy.
And you could walk around like that like nothing – like it's fine?
Yeah.
No.
Because ketamine doesn't put you in a hole?
Doesn't it loop you out?
No, just a little bit.
Like I would just get my hands and like Lisa could contest.
Cause she's,
she's known me for like 10 years.
I would just be like,
like a lizard man.
Yeah.
You just get the face and you're like,
yeah,
start tweaking.
You're like in your mind,
you're just having the greatest conversations about everything in life.
And you're like having the greatest moments,
but like,
yeah,
like I would, I would just consume
and consume and consume
yeah
and then at the end
it was not nice
you know
I changed
were you ruining relationships too?
same girl since high school
wow

Trisha Spencer
but what about
I mean friendships
and everything else
no I wasn't
you weren't a destructor.
I wasn't.
You were a self-destructor.
I was a self-destructor.
And because I had such a force field of things that I could give, I could make everyone happy.
Restaurants make people happy.
So many.
Yo, come in for a fucking dinner.
Oh, I fucking, oh, I fucking went to your bar last night.
I walked out on my bill.
Yo, go fuck yourself.
Come in for dinner.
Shut the fuck up.
Here's a bottle of fucking Pappy Van Winkle.
Get the fuck out of my face.
It's almost too easy for you.
Yeah.
I just have.
And because of the industry that we live in, I don't even think I paid for a meal or a drink in my town for 10 years.
Shit.
It's just like I would go into any bar and have graduation night or fucking whatever.
It was a celebration every night. And I would just just at the end of the night be like we cool
we're cool figured out so wait this was 10 years of your life like this longer yeah dude it was
like and but i was still this guy i was still like this happy funny crazy dude but at the end of it
like because i had my heart attack at 29, and then after my heart attack,
I didn't die,
and then my ego went banana town
because I was invincible.
You're like, no one can kill me.
I can't kill myself.
My own body can't kill me.
And I've been doing all the drugs.
I've been doing all of the drugs,
and they kill, fucking can't kill me.
And I'm fucking now.
I'm fucking now.
Now you're Superman.
I'm fucking pumped up.
Still little dick, pumped up.
Little dick pumped up.
What did this feel like when you had a fucking heart attack? A lot of people ask. Yeah. superman i'm fucking pumped up what a little dick pumped up little dick pumped up what did what did
what did this feel like when you had a fucking heart so it's a lot of people ask yeah i was
lucky to have mine in my sleep and be woken by my heart attack you woke up from a heart attack yeah

fucking rhino yeah i know you said you like tranks you like things that take down animals
you know when east mature is coming out of the rhino's asshole?

Like the greatest comic.
That's my life.
That's me.
That's when I'm gleaming.
When you're burst out of the asshole?
When I come out of the asshole of the rhino.
That is me at my best.
That's where I want to be.
Like in my mind, I'm like, how much more like vodka drink?
Like I would just drink pint glasses of vodka.
That was your go?
Vodka was your?
At the end.
My drink at the end of like the full like sadness spiral at the
very end my drink was a pint glass filled with ice filled with vodka two limes fuck and i drank
like 10 of those quickly in a sitting in like two hours holy shit i was just drinking like water
and then that's and then i'd be like then i had the fucking let's go let's go to the fucking
weird house let's go to the drug home let's go. Let's go to the fucking weird house.
Let's go to the drug home.
Let's go to the drug home.
10 of those and that's how you started the engine?
Yeah, yeah.
That's insane.
Or even less or more.
But that was how I needed to crank up fast.
So I would just drink glasses of vodka.
Is that what you did the night of your heart attack?
No, that binge, I don't even really remember.
I just know that I went hard for like three days.
And when I crashed, that's when it went.
And then when, so the feeling of the heart attack,
I woke up and I used to have palpitations all the time
as a big dog and the fucking,
so I used to always at parties,
if you'd see me do, I'd do this mid party,
like at a house party at a bar,
I'd be fucking railed out and be like,
and I'd cough through my palpitations
and fucking, and I'd just through my palpitations and fucking
and i'd just be like okay i'm good i'm good boom okay let's go fuck a couple more shots
and you're ready i was a barfer too i was a huge barfer so like middle of the bar shot
and just like ralph fucking just get back to it yeah that was a clean start i was like fuck i
i was like a cat like you know you're like and then just like boom instantly back and the fucking the dream the dream was i wake up
and i'm at my house which is like across the street from the restaurant and and and and i
wake up like five in the morning and it's after like three days it's like sunday morning and i was just like fuck
i was like this one's different i was like this is some different shit right was it was your heart
fluttering or no it wasn't fluttering it was getting crushed it was uncompromising movement
of like constriction constriction yeah like a fucking snake is wrapping your chest and and
and i didn't get the get the not breathing thing.
It wasn't like, my left arm's numb, getting a heart attack.
Right, yeah, yeah.
It was just like this thing that I couldn't, and it was, I've had palpitations my entire career.
I've had them for about 20 years because I have a murmur.
You got a murmur, okay.
So I get it all the time.
The fluttering's stressful.
But it's funny, when you say that cough thing, yours is for fun, and people think I'm a weirdo when I'm like, I'll do that. And. The fluttering is stressful. But it's funny when you say that cough thing. Yeah. Yours is for fun.
And people think I'm a weirdo when I'm like, I'll do that.
And you try to cough it out.
Yeah, you do.
Yeah, you have to.
Cough it out.
Yeah, you have to cough it out.
Well, they say you're supposed to cough.
I had a doctor tell me cough as hard as you can.
And if you can hang your head down, it helps because it activates more blood flow.
So it just pushes way more blood through the murmur in your heart so i was self-taught i was self-taught i was just like i was just like
like just to see the guy with his imagine walking into a party you're like we're here
right after you've thrown up yeah i love pissing my pants and fucking the thing is uh you won't
so you wake up you wake up this feels different. This feels different. The constriction is absurd.
The constriction is real.
And even Trisha's just like...
Trisha's been with me for so long that she's just like, okay, what's up?
You're like, you're fucking...
You stupid idiot.
Yeah, you're fine.
Kind of thing.
You're fucking...
What are you doing?

Trisha drives me to the hospital.

Drops me off.
She goes to work.
She's like, you're going to call me if you need something.

Yeah.
He's not heavy anymore.
No.
He's just a skinny guy with no lips and he hikes and he talks about his calves.
You talk about girls like it's the first time.
Like he's like a born again virgin, but now he's dating somebody I think or something.
Well, when you start to get pussy, I think it's like a.
I think he was a virgin until like last year.
Really?
I think so.
Maybe.
I think so.
Or he had some secrets.

Yeah.
Paid advocates. Sexual? I think so. Maybe. I think so. Or he had some secrets, you know what I'm saying? Yeah, paid advocates.
Uh-huh.
Sexual advocates.

And now he's skinny.
And he's a skinny,
unfunny guy.
Check out Heavy Sets, though.
100%.
Check out Heavy Sets.
Yeah, this is all love.
This is how you know
you really...
That's the same kind of
cloth we're cut from
is like
if we're shitting on each other
and joking around
that's the only way
I know we love
I tell cooks
and cooks and comedians
are very similar
yeah
if I stop talking to you
it means I hate you
I fucking hate you
if I'm not roasting you
and making fun of you
until you want to like
fight me
yeah
it's because
like we love each other.
I love you.
Even like, it's really funny.
My sous chefs will see it.
They're like, oh, you're not talking to Steve anymore, eh, bro?
You walk in, because I would walk into the kitchen,
and as a chef, I'd just start ripping everyone's mise en place.
It's like jokes.
Jokes are mise en place, right?
Right.
You're preparing for jokes.
People are cutting celery.
People are doing filleted fish. Wait, say it again. Mise en place? Mise en place. Put something in its place. Mise en place right right it's what you you're preparing for jokes people are cutting celery people are doing wait say it again mise en place mise en place put something in its place like
mise en place is prep okay i'm gonna say i mean that's gonna be the name of my next album mise
en place yeah mise en place i love that and so so fucking you'd be shitting i would just walk
in be like oh is that how you cut fucking celery you piece of shit where are you a fucking brick
layer fuck you what the fuck are you doing you piece of shit like you literally woke up today
and you were like this is how I'm gonna cut celery today
I'm a fucking
what did you do last night
more coke than me
you fucking loser
no you didn't
yes chef
yeah exactly
and then
and now the world's different
and now I don't do that
and I'm a different guy
because you can't
you literally can't
no
you have to have a person
and you go in
and you're like
I'm just very upset
with the way you've cut the celery
I don't like what you've done
and I just think that you could do better and if you do this uh
two more times you're gonna get a written letter and then we're gonna the world has changed to me
are you still cooking right now no not at all never again i'm gonna open up some restaurants
and do some stuff soon soon yeah yeah yeah we're building i'm building a restaurant right now
i just took a lease on for another restaurant are you doing are you doing tv shows based on these things too or no no that
shit's whack yeah it's like i'm my own worst enemy i could the amount of content that i'm putting out
i'd be putting out and i'm gonna sound like an asshole i'd be putting out way more if i actually
captured the things i actually do in my life yeah but it's just like there's a balance there is like
i'm like i don't need to make you don't have to capture everything right but it's just like and the thing about like being the from
the chef to like now just me being maddie and like the thing about comedy that i'm like i've still
never seen a live comedy show what i've never been to a comedy show in my life i know it's crazy
that's always because i'm so nervous, especially now because I do spoken word.
Yeah.
And I always say, I'm like, I'm not a fucking comedian.
This is just, I'm Matty Matheson.
You're a comedic personality.
Yeah.
How about that?
I'm like, yeah.
I'm like, I'm funny.
Yeah.
That's it.
I'm funny.
And I'm very reactionary.
And so it's just like a funny thing where like, I'm almost more nervous now because
I'm doing this thing where I'm on stage and I feel like
I got the microphone. I'm doing the thing. I hit the microphone. You do the fucking stupid thing.
Right. Whatever. But I'm like, if I was to go there, I feel like I could not do a five minutes
of standup. Of standup. Well, it's a different beast. It's just totally, it's not your world.
It's crazy. Yeah. The amount of, and going into my tour. Yeah. With zero prep,
yeah the the amount of and going into my tour yeah was zero prep walking on stage in front of a packed out house in boston and i'm just like i don't know what this is gonna be either that was
your first show first show and where was it at where's that boston uh some fucking place was
it the wilbur theater maybe or no no it was like a tiny bar it was a packed house in a tiny bar
cool but because we the first tour we did like two to 500 cap rooms to practice.
Because we didn't know what it was going to be.
And my manager's like, so what's it going to be?
I'm like, we're going to see in about two more days.
Were you planning with anybody throwing ideas against the wall or no?
No, I don't know any comedians.
I know Heavy.
Heavy, what do you think of this?
Okay.
But he's like, dude like because i don't have i have bit now i've developed a thing like an act i have an act i got
an hour i can smash my hour yeah and now i'm already bored of it and now i'm like that's what
we that's what we do we have to keep writing and keep writing and changing now i'm bored with it
right and i because i'm like you could i could actually keep doing this thing I'm doing.
You'll kill yourself, dude.
It's gnarly, though,
because it really...
That's why comics commit suicide.
I can see that.
The funny guys...
Oh, wait, check on your funny friends.
Yeah.
Well, dude, because they get fucking...
We get so looped.
There's guys that have been doing the same set
for 10, 12 years.
That's fucked, right?
It's monotonous.
Yeah, it's monotonous.
It's not that the crowd doesn't...
The crowd doesn't fucking know that you're bored with it right you know you're fucking bored with
it so you're repeating the same nonsense at some point you're it eats you alive yeah yeah you feel
like you feel like shit you're a caricature of yourself yeah i'm just giving you a thing that's
already been done all the time what is the turn like if you were to do is it like you kind of do
a lap and then you're like okay you switch out 20 like i because even more of like chef comedian
thing it's like the menu yeah right like my menu we are always changed like every month we change
about 20 yeah you have to yeah that's dude honestly and this sounds crazy that's about what
we do so when you're young in comedy you work your way up to like writing a good chunk of time when
you're very young five minutes you need to get at least five then to get 10 to 15 is important
because you can start to local rooms.
Right.
And then when you get older,
you work on hours and half hours,
chunks,
right?
So you,
I work in chunks.
I like 15,
15,
15,
15.
That's how my brain works.
Okay.
Not everyone does it like that,
but once you do an hour,
you either put it online,
put it on Netflix or try to get it on,
you know,
Showtime,
HBO,
try to put a special out.
If you can't,
you still
need to like keep shifting and moving that hour along up the fucking belt because you're gonna
get bored as fuck of it so dude 20 every once in a while like every year i would say i would say
i would say most comics that are working through hours you do it every year you're working on like
a new hour or so give or take you know You know what I mean? Like it's different for everybody.
But for the most part, I'm shifting out 20% every few months because I'm trying shit this week.
It doesn't work.
Next week I try something that doesn't work.
When does it not work for you?
I find it hard to believe.
Well, it doesn't work in the way that like you don't want it.
I don't like it yet.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like the joke is like, it's like when you're creating a fucking dish and you're like, it
doesn't taste right.
Something is like, it's not as good as i know it can be even if somebody goes and and it's it's
hard when somebody goes maddie this is fucking delicious and you're like no it's not yeah you're
so when you have like your home you have your little trust tree you know and then they're like
you guys are like the same as my chefs yeah like especially with instagram we put up a dish my
buddy's like yo bro like where are you putting that fucking basil's fucking stupid are you a
fucking idiot bitch yeah you basil bitch you seared your fucking pork chop like a fucking idiot
like we are all on that you need to shit on each other constantly like because it's just like i
like i love i don't care what the crowd says or reacts but if i have like three buddies in the
crowd that i actually respect and then I'll take their criticism actually
and be like
what did you
like truthfully
like tonight
when I do like my premiere
like I'm gonna do a thing
at the beginning
and I'm very excited
because it's full of
like a ton of friends
and like people
and even like my editor
for my book in New York
he's like
you want
just as simple as
he's like
do you want the honest truth
and I was like yeah
he's like
you talk too long
that's a great note
and he's like
you just talk too long that's a great fucking note and i was just like amazing and in
la i'm gonna be like perfect i know exactly that was a perfect amount of criticism where i'm like
i'm gonna say the fucking same thing i'm gonna say but i did meander a bit right now like i did
kind of because i'm not telling jokes i'm telling life stories yeah so then i'm like i'm just gonna
cut out that part and because I was in New York
it was very specific
because some of the things
I did like
almost like
there was a lot of people
in the crowd
that helped me with my career
and I kind of like
acknowledged them
and talked about it
but that's important too
all that shit's important
at the same time
I thought so
and maybe because I didn't
mention my fucking book editor
he was kind of butthurt
he's like it was a little long
when you were thanking
all of your old
executive producers
from Vice
and I was like yeah like you know I was heartfelt, it was a little long when you were thanking all of your old executive producers from Vice. And I was like, yeah.
Like, you know, like I was heartfelt.
Like, it was just like, it was amazing.
You need those moments.
But you play, we call it playing the back of the room.
That's what it's called.
Okay.
Because usually the comics sit in the back of the room if they're going to watch other comics.
So we say play the back of the room means some guys only play the back of the room.
Some guys love being a comics comic.
That's what we call it.
There's got to be like a chef chef.
There's got to be a thing where it's like there's a cool chef who's not really corporate,
who will never fucking go corporate.
It's like, fuck that shit.
Yeah.
They're so cool.
Yeah.
That's a thing.
That's a thing.
I'm just like, give me money.
Cholula?
Love you.
Give me money, baby.
But that's the thing.
Some people play.
So you have to have a balance of like playing the back of the room and also, you know, also
servicing the people that came to see you.
I never liked comedy that was like, fuck the crowd. This is me and them it's like no it's for them it's for
them too you have to you have to have both you can't just play the back of the room eventually
if you're just playing back of the room you're like the suicidal how about this you'll always
be the guy that plays the back of the room once if you stick in that world yeah you'll never get
out of it so tonight this premiere is it where is this going to be after we see it like where you'll just be on youtube it'll be on you'll just be on youtube
and it's like and this is the thing that tell the people what it is i made a cooking show yeah i
just i made my my cooking show and it's the way you would do it well it yeah because i made it
yeah it's two camera guys one editor one sound guy one food stylist and me that's it that's it
no producers no emails
no fucking thoughts you know we think you should do a little is that shirt the one that you want
to wear for the yeah all that fucking shit that doesn't mean anything i did it in my house i got
an air like my my wife and kids went and stayed up the in-laws for a week and i smashed and we
made 12 12 full fucking 20 minute episodes in my fucking house.
And now I'm gonna launch it on YouTube
because I made like 60 episodes of TV with Viceland.
Yeah.
And I made-
Never again, by the way?
No, no.
And in the most peaceful, chillest way ever.
Yeah.
Just like we, I hit a ceiling,
they hit a ceiling with me
and we kind of were just like-
That's life.
I'm where I'm at, I'm cool.
Yeah.
You know, it wasn't like a weird blow up. wasn't like a fucking i didn't go on a pr
bend trying to like tell my end of the story we both faded away from each other yeah that's just
being like dude i don't give a fuck i'm where i'm at you know what i'm a big boy and i'm gonna go
and work right and so i went and worked and i i did the whole thing where I had like a couple meetings at Netflix
and did some things
and I think like
I think that I still
don't know what
I'm trying to pitch them
and I think
I think that I need
to figure some stuff out
but I was very
I was in a place too
where I was very frustrated
with
I'm like
I'm doing
I'm doing the thing
I'm coming to LA
I'm taking meetings
this shit's whack
and I'm just like this. I'm coming to LA. I'm taking meetings. This shit's whack.
And I'm just like,
this fucking world is so fucking stupid. It's whack as fuck.
Would you like a water?
People are stupid.
I'm just,
I'm like,
why is this young kid
the head of the department
that I'm talking to?
The deciding factor.
Yeah.
And I'm just like,
okay,
I'm gonna go just make the thing
and I have enough people that follow me and enjoy my thing. And the biggest thing is like, I'm gonna go just make the thing. And I have enough people that follow me
and enjoy my thing.
And the biggest thing is like,
I've realized that-
You've cultivated your own fucking audience.
I have my own fucking audience.
You don't need a gatekeeper.
I don't need a fucking gatekeeper.
Fuck that.
And I know that I can make TV.
Yeah.
Because I fucking made it.
Yep.
Every, all of my shit is unscripted.
Zero prep.
Right.
One or two takes max. My new show is only one take oh that's the that's the deal only one take one take wow i go turn the cameras on i go
fuck and i cook and you better fucking get it because that's it i don't do shit twice
no so my entire career is a riff right which is people can't even fathom that really i find like when i meet people
and i'm like isn't that doesn't that make me more valuable i've done 60 episodes of television
i've done zero writers right no fucking writers no fucking anything well to me it reads authentic
that's what i would say if it's like because to me then it's like oh it's your shit it's your
product there's no there was no one dictating it wasn't like somebody puppeteered this fucking
career for you you were like no no i just did it hey vice i'd love some uh critique
on the last season of the tv show it would be very helpful keep going maddie you're doing great
thanks vice good dooch good let's go make another season of a fucking show i guess we're doing good
that was it it was just like,
dude, keep going, man.
Keep doing your thing.
You're getting better.
Yeah.
That's what they would always say.
You're getting better on being on television.
Keep going.
Did you want to be on camera
or was that kind of annoying
for you?
That was a,
it was certainly,
I never had the,
it's much like being
an actual,
I never had the moment
of a little child
thinking I was going
to be a chef.
I never had the moment
of being a chef
thinking I was ever going to be this.
Yeah, right.
I never gave a...
I'm a very punk...
I don't give a fuck about a lot of stuff, actually.
If it all goes away, it doesn't matter to you.
Kind of.
Yeah, you'll figure it out.
No, because the thing is,
if everything was to go away,
I'd be a chef with restaurants
that I still care about more than anything.
And so I would...
You can't take away me being a chef. No, right, yeah. I will always be a chef with restaurants that I still care about more than anything. And so you can't take away me being a chef.
No, right.
Yeah.
I will always be a chef.
If the Instagram things or the fucking all this stuff and photo shoots and meetings and
all that stuff goes, this entire career is a cherry.
Yeah.
So I'm just like, it's cool.
And now that I'm making it myself, it's even cooler because I don't have to deal with anybody.
Right. And now proof's in the pudding., it's even cooler because I don't have to deal with anybody. Right.
And now, proof's in the pudding.
We're going to see what the fuck happens.
But I'm completely steering the ship.
I'm completely in complete control.
The edits, everything.
The fucking jokes.
And it's amazing because I'm like, in the very first episode, the fucking through line joke through the whole episode is me eating cum.
You know,
because the sauce is cummy.
And I think that the sauce is cummy.
And I'm just like,
with Vice,
even with Vice,
with censorship and stuff like that,
I had this one joke on it.
The only time I tried to fight
actually to keep something in
was in It's Supper Time.
I had a joke
and I was trying to, I it and i i was just like this
is so fucking good it'd make my mom squirt and i was like it would fucking joanie wood gosh
and you know and they were like we are not putting that in there why it's like exactly i don't think
that doesn't that's not uh i don't think that? And then I tell that story in my live performance. And it crushes. And it crushes.
Yeah.
And then one person comes up during a meet and greet.
So this person paid extra money to come up to me.
Yeah.
Give me a very sultry drunk hug.
Tell me how much they love me.
Yeah.
And then says that my show is not woman friendly.
Not woman friendly?
Yeah.
You made a comment about your mother one time?
Yeah.
And she's like, you're very different on stage than you are on Instagram.
And I'm like.
What would that even mean?
Exactly.
And I was just like, what?
I'm talking about censorship.
And it's a joke.
I don't know if Joni squirts.
I'm not.

times.
I know.
They can fucking run
around a room,
those two.
Steve can pump.
Steve is the pump king,
baby.
Steve's the pump king.
Get back here, Joni.
Joni!
Steve, it hurts.
Get back here, Joni.
Yeah, doors locked.
You know when the door's locked
in the Matheson house,
what's happening?
I'd have friends over from school
and just like mom and dad
just upstairs.
They would fuck when you had friends over?
I don't even.
They're boss shit.
That's boss shit.
Mom and dad going at it?
They're like those people
that they still like
shower together every day.
Shut the fuck up.
Dude, they're my parents.
That's beautiful.
Yeah.

No chance.
I have my own bathroom.
Yeah.

I was just in Tokyo
I would just sit on that toilet
and like play with my nipples

water blast my little asshole
and that would make you squirt
that would make you squirt
I wish I could
you couldn't squirt like Joni but you squirt. I wish I could.
You couldn't squirt like Joni,
but you would squirt.
I wish I was a girl.
Sometimes I have moments,
I'm like,
if I was a girl,
I would just... Just play with your pussy all day long.
I would.
Yeah.
Because I just play with...
Like, yeah.
We can make it happen.
I'm on the road all day.
I'm on the road all day.
Like, literally being on...
People don't understand.
You go to a hotel and you jerk off.
Yep.
Before you go to bed,
when you wake up,
before you leave the room.
And it's just all you do is jerk off. Sometimes it Before you go to bed, when you wake up, before you leave the room.
And it's just all you do is jerk off.
Sometimes it's hard
when I'm in a room
to not just jerk off
because I think I'm in a hotel.
I'm so used to it.
Yeah, like even like right now
I walked in the room
and I was like,
I want to jerk off right now.

And my buddy just walked up, and he was like, hey, announced, and just dummied this guy.
And they were two weird, they were like, it was like something out of a movie.
They were two goons fucking with this woman and a woman and a character, just walking down the street and just kind of surrounded her at this street stop right down the street from one of our bars.
And literally, and then my buddy, two dudes walked over, and he dummied this guy, and his head went through the window and then sliced half his face off
through the window, and it was gnarly.
Run.

The cops are coming!
Even the woman was like, oh, my God!

My brother is two years older than me, so he's in grade, what, seven?
And these two kids come over.
We're new kids on the block.
It's a small little town.
These two kids come over and try to fuck with us.
My brother, Steve, like beats the fuck.
Like I'm watching, like when you're on top.
And he was just like pounding him.
When they're like holding him.
Yeah, you know when you're like hitting him and his head's hitting the ground.
And like this is like kid shit.
And I remember my parents running over.
Because even at a young age, it was crazy.
I remember we would have to fucking box my dad.
We would have to go out in the back and fight Steve.
Your dad was tough as shit, it sounds like.
He's a newfie.
He's like a fucking, he's good.
He taught us how to, he was early, like punch through the face.
Like back of the head.
He wouldn't even punch it through the face, through the back of the head.
That's such a good look.
Like, you know, like.
Go all the way. Follow through.
Follow through.
Follow through. And he was head. That's such a good line. Like, you know, like. Go all the way. Follow through. Follow through. Follow through.
And he was always,

That's right.
You know, like he was
like one of those guys.
Yeah, dad.

But we would have to go,
