Why won't you date me?
Why won't you date me?
Why won't you date me?
Please tell me why!
Ooh baby, welcome to another episode of Why Won't You Date Me,
a podcast where me and Nicole Byer tries to figure out how I'm still single,
even though I'll suck the soul out your dick and say thank you.
My guest today is a hilarious comedian and podcaster that you know from Chappelle's show,
Pixar's Soul.
He currently co-stars in the miniseries,
Winning Time, The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty,
available on HBO.
It's Donna Rowling!
This, this, this, this, this bitch got me Paying her rent, paying for shit
Diamonds on her neck
And I don't know all the song,
but the part I do know
that resonates with me
is
this
bitch
got me
that's the
that's the story
of my life
wait I don't think
I know this song
what song is this
what you don't know
the song
I don't think so
I don't know lyrics
to anything
you don't have to know
the lyrics to it
you just need to know
that phrase
Anna Sue Potts
and Bruno Mars
basically it's a story about a guy being in a relationship where he feels like the woman may have been taking advantage of him because of his celebrity and his financial status.
And in the song, there's a lot of frustration when they say this part right here.
And this is so profound.
This bitch got me paying rent,
paying for shit, diamonds on her neck,
paying for trips, and I'm
here all alone.
I'm so cold,
I'm so cold. You got me
smoking off the
window.
Smoking off the window.
Saying how could this
happen to me? How could could this happen to me?
How could you do this to me?
Oh, I thought that girl was only for me.
Whatever.
But I was wrong.
She belonged to everybody.
And whoever's listening, you, you, you, everybody.
That's a song.
Kind of a sad song.
Yes, if you're the guy.
It's a beautiful song if you're the woman.
No.
I'm not trying to steal or, like, take shit from a dude and then not be with them.
That seems so mean.
It is mean, but that's a function in the streets.
And this usually applies to chicken heads or people that don't want to work hard for the things they want.
And they want other people to work for them.
This might not apply to you, but maybe, wait a minute.
Have you ever been in a situation where you were, how do I say this?
Where I was dating somebody
purely
that was doing everything for you, but you still
wasn't. No. Never.
No, I could never in good conscious
date somebody
and take shit from them
without
I'm more of a caretaker. I like to take
care of people.
If you're taking care of me, it's like a mutual thing.
I don't know.
Have you had any chicken heads in your life?
No, I haven't had chicken heads, but I've had some people that I felt that I was doing a lot for them.
And we weren't equally yoked or I wasn't getting the things out of the relationship that I wanted.
I have had those situations.
I'm not going to call them chicken heads.
Some of them are opportunists.
Some of the people are like this.
You want to call yourself deity, so you got to act like deity.
And there's a difference between deity and deity.
You know that, right?
No.
I thought they were the same word, but you're just putting the emphasis on a different syllable.
Yes, that's it.
And deity, deity usually is reserved for young women dating older guys. Hey, deity, I see you with your silver, your salt and pepper deity. It's the difference between that and like, it's the difference between that and daddy, I need money to go to the movies. That deity is the one, and then you find yourself.
one and then you find yourself and then some of you misspell it with a z z now zeddy is borderline you're about to have a baby with them and then it's going to be your baby mom for the rest of
your life that's the zeddy do you have you has anyone called you a zeddy oh my god that's how
i got a baby i watched a clip you have a very it's i think it's on New Negroes where you talk about naming your kid Austin
because on paper you wanted him to look good.
And I understand that.
My name is Nicole because on paper you see him, you know,
they can't tell your ethnicity through the paper.
Unless you give them an abbreviated nickname.
You say Nikki.
That's usually associated with an African-American.
It's safe to say that.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, that's what my mom said.
She's like, that's why you didn't get a nickname.
She was like, I didn't want you introducing yourself to like Little Boo Boo to everybody.
She's like, you are Nicole.
Yeah, Little Boo Boo is not a bad guy, but I understand where her thoughts were.
Mm-hmm.
So, okay.
I want to know, where are you?
You're in a hotel.
Are you touring right now?
Yeah, I'm going to tour till I die.
I'm in Philly right now.
So do you love the tour life?
I love, I used to have more fun with it when I didn't have a kid.
When I was only responsible for myself and it was all about party and rock out with your cock out or whatever.
But since I have my son and he's six now, it's not as exciting anymore because
every weekend I'm away, it's a weekend away from him. So it's been kind of tough on that end of it.
But I do love going out and talking to the people. I do love going to these places year after year,
people seeing the growth in my standup. And for me, I've never been like a working actor. I get
bits and pieces of stuff,
but it's not enough to say that that's how I can support myself.
So majority of my career, it's all been on the road and stand up.
So I do have a big thing for being a road warrior.
But road warrior.
But it does cut into the time that I spend with my son now.
Would you ever bring your kid on the road with you?
I've done it. I love it.
Any opportunity I can get, I love to do it. I love the fact that he knows what daddy does for a living. He's kind of excited about it. You know, he's a funny kid
already. But, you know, I think any dad that, you know, you don't want to force your kid into what
you do, but you do appreciate the fact that they appreciate it and at least know what daddy does.
So any chance that I get to have him on the road with me, he goes.
I went to the Montreal Comedy Festival with him.
And I brought him on stage.
Oh, that's sweet.
Oh, my God.
That's so fucking sweet.
But no, it got fucked up, Nicole, and I'll tell you why.
Because my son always asks him, are you going to tell a joke?
Are you going to tell a joke?
So the only joke he has is just one word, caca, caca.
He just says caca.
It don't have a setup.
There's no callback.
It's just the punchline.
There's no callback.
He's just saying caca.
No, no.
He's saying caca.
Right?
No transition.
No nothing.
He just says caca and it? No transition, no nothing. He just says caca, and it rips, right?
So we were at the Montreal Comedy Festival.
I had a show, and I was on stage,
and he was on the side of the stage.
The curtain, he couldn't see the audience,
but he could hear them laughing, right?
And he was in the back, Nicole.
He was like, oh, man, this dude is the best thing
since sliced bread.
He'd laugh and like, oh, my dad is killing him.
And I'm over there looking at him like, I'm about to kill it.
I don't know what I was saying, what joke I was doing, but I said caca in my joke.
And he looked at me like, did this motherfucker just steal my shit?
No, he looked like, he hit his head like the SMH face. He hit his head and he looked like, he hit his head, like the SMH face.
He hit his head and he was like, I got one joke.
One joke.
This is what he was looking.
He said, you take my one joke, caca.
He looked at me like that.
So I finally brought him out on stage.
And I was like, hey, Austin.
I said, you want to tell a joke?
And he looked at me in my face like, was gonna do my caca shit right but then
you you joke thieving ass old grandfather age that's why you shouldn't have had me so late
you forget that you're supposed to let your son get those opportunities
yeah but i love him been on the road with me. That's so, every time you leave, he's like, you're going to tell my joke.
Yep, caca.
You're going to tell it, and the people are going to laugh, and that's my fucking joke.
I want to let them know, this is the world, bro.
You got to get some new jokes.
Yeah, you got to beware.
People be out here stealing.
Yep, and they love to steal from kids that can't defend themselves.
But, you know, what I'm doing is I'm training him to be a better writer.
Mm-hmm, yeah, because that's the first draft. You got to get the second draft'm doing is I'm training him to be a better writer. Mm-hmm.
Yeah, because that's
the first draft.
He's got to get the
second draft,
third draft going.
He's got to do some rewrites.
Yep, get that rewrite.
But going back to your question,
the best feeling in the world
is when he's on a roll with me.
You know,
I just did some shows
in Ontario a while ago
and one of my friends,
one of my openers,
he has a son
and we both brought our kids
to the show and we had
the nanny take care of them.
But then we felt bad because I said,
Austin, are you going to stay for the
second show? He was like, no, daddy, I'm ready to go back
to the hotel. I was like, oops.
Excuse me.
I fucking love
this kid.
I'm like, you didn't. Just, you know.
I'm like, you didn't get over, you still,
you still holding on to that contact joke.
You won't let it go.
He's like, no, I'm done.
I can't watch you steal from me again.
Yeah, but he's the love of my life.
I, did you always want to be a dad or did you have a kid and then you're like,
yes, this is what I fucking want.
It was a combination of both,
but it was like, you know,
one thing about our business is that sometimes you pursuing what you want so much that you don't put the focus on other things.
You know, it's like I got to make myself happy.
I don't think I'm in a position to have a kid.
It'll slow me down.
So I always thought that I always fantasized about the idea of being a father.
But then as time kept going and just kept going, it was just like them years started adding up.
I was like, you know what?
Looks like I probably won't have kids.
And I was settled with that because the toughest thing, if you're not settled with the fact that you may not have kids, it'll drive you crazy.
And like a lot of people, I was like, yeah, I got nephews,
I got nieces, whatever.
I'll be cool and I'll just bury myself.
Most people that don't have children
at a certain point in life,
they just get obsessed with their career.
That's the thing that drives them.
That's where their happiness is.
And I don't have a problem with that.
And then just like the woman that I was
dating at the time, you know,
we made a
goddamn baby. And it wasn't like
somebody said, was it planned? I was like, well,
if you're fucking the way I was,
you know, it might not have been planned.
But the
possibility of it happening is
great. Uh-huh. Yeah.
If you raw dogging, I mean, that's kind of planning.
But we don't think that that happens.
We don't think, you know.
Like, I don't know, maybe it's that Cardi B phrase you say,
a wet-ass pussy make that pull-out game weak.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
It's weak.
You just want to stay in there.
You say, it's nice and warm.
Oopsies.
Boom, boom, boom.
I win.
But it was like, I'm going to tell you, it's weak. You just want to stay in there. He said, it's nice and warm. Oopsies. Boom, boom, boom. I win. But it was like, I'm going to tell you, it really, the situation with me having this kid,
it really made me really understand how dope it is to procreate.
When you're younger, you just take advantage of shit.
You know, you're just like, oh, I just hit it and it happened.
But then I look at the people that
have kids later in life,
the people that have to do a lot
to have kids, you know?
That do those shots and all that type of shit.
I'm like, wait a minute. You can't take this for granted.
In fact, when my lady was pregnant
the first time, we found out,
you know, the doctors, it just didn't start out
good, you know?
It was basically like, it's a 40% chance that this would be a healthy situation or whatever.
But at my age, I heard 40%.
I was like, oh, I got a chance.
Let's go.
I started juicing and shit.
I'm like, what the hell does it got to do with me?
I already did my part, right?
And it was like, it wasn't a good pregnancy.
Three months in, she lost the baby. Right.
And at first I was like all about, yo, God, thank you. This is the best thing ever.
And then when I lost the baby, I was I'll be honest, I was a little fucked up with God.
And I'll say that because I was like, damn, God, I'm like, I mean, I really don't be blowing your line up.
You know what I'm saying?
I really, I'm not one of them dudes that be like, oh, oh, my God, the light's about to turn red.
God, please don't let me get this ticket.
I don't want to pay this $50.
I don't pray like that.
You know what I'm saying?
I pray for some shit that I really need.
And I was frustrated. I was like, damn, God, I'm saying? I pray for some shit that I really need. And I was frustrated.
I was like, damn, God, I can't even believe this.
Right?
And then three months later, and my lady, she's a young Latino, so you know it's easy.
You can blow a kiss to them and they'd be like, oh, my God, I'm five months pregnant.
Right?
So after we had the miscarriage at three months, three months later.
It happened again. And now I got to go back to God.
And be like, come on, man, I was just having a bad day.
I needed a prayer, but now I need it, need it.
Yeah. I was just fucking around. Please let this be OK.
Yeah. And anybody's have been in so many.
I found that so many people have been in the same situation where you get excited about something that doesn't happen the
way you want you know and um i was like this is like like a extreme extreme blessing and but you're
nervous because you're like if you get to three months you have miscarriage you don't want to get
too excited you're just trying to get to where you were the last time. You know what I mean?
Like, when she said she was pregnant, I was like, yay.
But then I was like, okay, let's get three months.
And then we got to the fourth month.
And nowadays, with, like, medical technology and everything,
it's like you kind of know how things are going to go work out in advance.
So we just kept getting good news, kept getting good news.
And, you know,
nine months later, I had the best thing in my life to come to me. That's a sweet story. You know,
it started off rough and shit. And I do appreciate you talking about it because I feel like we don't
women very rarely talk about miscarriages. And it's a very common thing that happens. But to hear from the male perspective was interesting because it's like it is two people in this it isn't just one person two people are affected and it's
devastating it's devastating and i could like psychologically that could i mean i know people
that like like just just keep trying keep trying just keep trying. Just keep trying. I mean, we're talking about years.
Yeah.
And that's why I really respect the whole process because it's not, for some people, it's not that easy.
I know, especially for the women's psychological situation of like, will I have kids?
Can I have kids?
It can weigh on you.
So I really know the importance of being supportive of your partner. And like, if you can get there you can get there you know yeah um not to completely
flip the switch and change lanes or whatever but i have a question about touring do you have
chuckle fuckers yeah i've had them not not not too much anymore they don't really approach me i guess
you know that's like i think that's um more when you first start, you want to take
advantage of everything, especially when you broke.
You want to take advantage of everything this business can give you.
And a little funny pussy never hurt anybody.
But yes, I do have chuckle fuckers.
I do have chuckle fuckers.
They're the best ones.
What's the wildest way a chuckle fucker has thrown
themselves at you uh i was shooting pool or whatever and i was trying to convince her that
it's time to go let's do something and she i was like this yeah you know um you know we could go
to my room i know this sounds like a me too about to happen right i? I was like, this is how it always starts.
No, this is how it always starts.
And she was just,
she was like,
she was like,
you don't have to convince me.
I'm going to fuck you.
It wasn't,
it wasn't anything
to do with my personality
or anything.
He had everything to do with it.
I'm a fan of the show, Chappelle's show.
This was back then.
And I'm fucking someone from that show.
And it just so happened that the robot guy wasn't available.
You know what I mean?
Charlie Murphy was married.
Dave was married.
So I had to take all the hits.
I was like, I'll take that pussy.
And you get a chuckle fucker.
Everybody gets a chuckle fucker.
No, that's funny.
I mean, you were on a hit TV show.
So, yeah, I'm sure people were just like anybody from Chappelle's show.
I want it.
I want that dick.
I just want that story
and it got so bad for me
that I wouldn't even
go to a bar if it wasn't
you know how you have a show and it's a bar
next door if it wasn't a
bar next door I would not
I didn't have time to start over
to get to know me I would just go to a bar
and be like this
I'll go to you I'll be like this I hope you enjoy the show if they say I didn't go to a motherfucker and be like this. I'll be like this. I'll go to you. I'll be like this. I hope you enjoy the show.
If they say I didn't see the show, I'll be like, next!
I didn't know next.
Well, I didn't know next.
No, that's so fucking funny because you're like, I'm not doing the work.
I already worked for an hour.
So I'm just going to say hello. If you've seen
it, let's go. If you haven't
seen it, I got to move on. I can't
be putting in the work. I mean, I feel the same way. If you haven't seen the show gotta move on i can't be putting in the work that's i mean i
feel the same way if you haven't seen the show i don't want to get to know you i want to find
someone who already understands what they're getting but i'm gonna tell you something chuckle
fuck like one thing a woman could like you for multiple reasons right but if you want to get
your brains fucked out connect with a woman that loves the fact that you make them laugh.
That's one of the sexiest traits a man can have, a sense of humor.
And a sense of humor can compete with some of the richest people in the world.
Shout out to Pete Davidson putting it down, being funny.
Too soon?
Too soon?
It's so wild.
Don't let the funny motherfucker take your girl. too soon too soon it's so it's so wild every like
don't let the funny
nigga
don't let the funny
motherfucking take your girl
that is horrible
anytime
you look at anything
Kanye's spinning out
he said
I don't know what to do
but the thing is
like
I know people
that are really close
to Kanye
and like
I'm not critical of him
but I'm like this
bro
that's the toughest thing
to do on a breakup the toughest thing to do
on a breakup
the toughest thing to do
is like
who's going to start fucking first
who's going to find
their happiness first
you don't want that person
to get their happiness first
you say it
we bullshit
and say stuff like
I just want you to be happy
I don't want you to be happy
not before me bitch
not before me let me go happy first and you go happy second I don't want you to be happy. Not before me, bitch. Not before me.
Let me go happy first, and you go happy second.
I don't want you out here fucking around with no 6'7 basketball player
with some great sweatpants that keep trying to do jumping jacks
every chance he gets.
But I think Kanye should leave them.
Leave them alone.
Yeah, leave them alone.
Leave it alone, bro.
And if anything, I know, I understand the side.
And I understand it because I'm in a co-parenting situation now.
I understand the frustration of that.
But, man, leave the boy alone, man.
He could be so nasty.
He could be so evil to shit.
He's trying to take the high road.
Y'all work that shit off off of social media.
Put that shit in private.
You know?
Yeah.
Get you a therapist.
Also at this point,
I'm like,
you're stalking this woman.
Like this is sick.
This is what men do in real life.
And it's not publicized as much.
And then you just hear about women getting murdered.
So it's like,
step off.
Yeah.
I doubt if it gets that serious,
but just the psychological
part of just every time you turn around this dude is saying something and he's of that celebrity
level that anything he says that it's going to be noted and somebody's going to talk about it yeah
yeah uh i just i don't know i just can't fathom breaking up with someone and then haunting them
you're like he's being a fucking he's like a ghost
he just won't leave well you know that there's um this phrase i would call pussy whipped right
pussy whipped is the type of pussy that's so good it distracts you from normal thinking
you know i'm saying and it's usually with women with wop i don't know if you're sitting on wop or
not but um i don't think you can gauge your
pussy as being fire until you have someone that's psychotic, that's really like overdosing. So I
don't know how, what level you put your, if you ain't had, if you don't got a crazy motherfucker
in your life to go, it might not be as fire as you thought. Oh no, I don't have a WAP. I don't have any crazy people chasing me.
And I've been digmatized.
But this is eye-opening and kind of upsetting.
Yeah, I mean, you know, well, maybe they keep it to themselves.
But usually it's the psycho.
You know your pussy is fire when you have a guy screaming that line,
this bitch got me.
That girl had the WAP. That was a WAP. He was That girl had the WAP.
That was a WAP.
He was a recipient of the WAP.
I wish I had a WAP.
This is really upsetting.
How does one get a WAP?
I just think.
I guess practice?
You can.
How do you get wet ass pussy?
I think it's.
Well, it has to probably be part of your partner, too.
Your partner has contributed.
I think it's important for your partner to contribute to your whoppiness.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying?
Because if a woman is really, really not into you, it's probably hard for her to get to the point where you need a mop and a bucket for her wet-ass pussy.
You know?
for her wet ass pussy.
You know, it's...
You know, I'm saying...
You have, I mean... To be able to say that
with no laughter,
you probably need to get
a bucket and a mop
for that wet ass.
It's so funny.
The song is so fucking funny.
Yo, give me everything you got
for this wet ass pussy.
And here's another fun fact
that people don't respect about the song.
This pussy that we speak of is not employed in the song.
She says, I don't cook, I don't clean.
But let me tell you how I got this ring.
And it was because of her wet ass pussy.
So I don't know what message that sends to the youth of today.
They're not wanting to cook or clean, but I'm an old school dude.
You're going to have to do one or the other.
I don't cook.
I can't cook.
I'm not good at it,
but I do clean.
I will,
like I dust.
So Nicole,
is this safe to say?
And I think I'm getting close to what's going on here.
And you're trying to close it now.
You know what I'm going to.
You know where I'm going with this.
Open your mouth.
Open your mouth.
That's what it is.
Your mouth game is, yo.
Your mouth game has to be fire.
Okay.
Since I don't have a wet ass pussy,
I got to start sucking them dicks better.
Not dick suck.
Dicker.
Or.
One.
It don't have to be better.
No. I'm assuming that you're already nice with it.
That's what they say on the street.
Oh, she nice with it.
I'm assuming you're nice with it.
Okay.
I thought I was nice with it.
Where's the goddamn confidence, man?
Wait a minute.
Where is the confidence?
Okay, I'm good at it.
I'm good at sucking dick.
Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom.
Nobody's going to believe that.
Nobody's going to believe that?
They believe this sentence.
I'm nice with it.
I'm nice with it.
There you go.
There it is.
And they got, I don't know what level.
It takes a while to get to a level of like a throat goat.
You're not a throat goat.
I would love to be a throat goat because I love that.
What a fun title for someone.
A throat goat.
Throat goat.
And the fact that you could be called a throat goat at any age.
Nancy Reagan was considered a throat goat in her senior years.
In her senior years. She probably
had more practice when she was younger, but
we didn't know her throat goat-ism
until she was a senior
student. Until she was old. And she was old.
And I heard that throat,
here's another way, I heard
it was fire. Okay.
That throat is fire. Yeah.
Alright, so I'm going to become gonna become that okay so in order for me
to find someone i gotta become a throat goat uh and be a little bit more confident with my skills
and do i just tell how do you hit on somebody like how do you like to be hit on me i i'm i i
you know at my age i can't deal with your favorite color, your signs or anything.
It just got to be, you just got to be, you just got to, I don't want to, I don't want,
you know, what's your sign?
Sagittarius?
Oh my God, I'm a Sagittarius too.
We get along.
I don't think you hit on anybody.
I don't think, here's the thing.
I think people, when we aggressively try to find something, we never get it.
You know what I'm saying?
And I know it sounds crazy.
And people like, and I know women get to a certain point like, yeah, but I'm getting older.
And we always say shit like, you know, that right person will come to you.
I think that when you're not looking, when you're not looking, that's when you'll find it.
And men know desperation.
They know women dealing with time and everything.
And they don't want it.
Unless you catch a guy that's, like, equally yoked like that.
Like, they're looking at time.
They're looking at some things they want to do.
It don't, you can't find it.
It finds you.
It may sound corny, but it finds you.
And it usually finds you when it's the last thing on your mind,
when you are embedded into your career.
And, like, even in your case, if you're not, it's going to happen.
It's going to happen.
It's going to happen.
And it's going to happen when you're just doing your normal shit,
you're living your life, you're following your career,
and it's going to be the weirdest encounter.
I thought it almost happened at the Critics' Choice Awards.
I co-hosted with Taye Diggs, and I was wearing this tiny, tiny little dress.
And I looked down.
The stage manager was like,
staring at you.
And I looked down, and was staring at me like,
ooh-wee, like I had a wop.
And I just smiled at him.
And then he left, and nothing happened. And I just smiled at him. And then he left and nothing happened.
And I was very upset about it.
Well, you smiled at him because he looked like a wop.
And you was going to get a knot on your forehead, okay?
Because, I mean, the fantasy is there, but he's married.
Oh, he's married?
Yeah.
And he's figured out a way to keep whatever.
I'm not saying he does.
But if he does anything extracurricular, he's figured out a way to keep it on the low, which a lot of people can't.
Okay, good to know.
But I really thought it was going to happen.
I was like, ooh, yeah.
Ooh, be looking.
But you know what's going to be tougher?
See, you're in a tough situation too, Nicole.
Mm-hmm.
Because I know it sounds crazy, but I've found that successful black women usually have the hardest times in relationships.
Mmm.
Mmm.
You hate to hear that.
I know.
But just show us.
It's the truth.
Like, so many men, it's going to take a special person.
So many men are insecure.
You know what I'm saying?
And men, one of the things we want to do,
we always want to feel like we're,
and I know people are going to try to argue with me about this,
but we want to feel always like
we're in control and we are needed.
And the minute,
the minute you take that away from a man,
we're like,
I don't need a man for anything.
And guess what?
Stay single.
You know what I'm saying?
If you don't want us for anything, and if you don't want us to feel like men, then you have a problem finding a God, period.
Your followers, your listeners, they can argue with me all they want. I see so many executives in this business that have got everything in their career.
They're the boss bitches.
They do everything.
But there's one part that they don't have, and that's that companionship, and that's loving someone and someone loving you back.
It's a tough thing.
thing well how do i if i don't need a man for anything other than like love and emotional support and shit like that how do i how do i make a man feel like a man if i don't need him like
financially it could be just it could it could be inspiration it could be motivation and you
could make him feel like you know i like to listen to listen to you, honey. When you say, even though I got this going on, when you say certain things, it makes me feel
good. It makes me feel wanted. It's appreciating. It ain't always got to be the financial part.
It's just the mental support, the mental support also. And a lot of women, this is an art,
right? This is an art. A lot of women don't know the art of shutting the fuck up
listen and now don't get me wrong they're gonna try to dog me i don't give a fuck
but the art like it doesn't mean shut the fuck up all the time but in certain situations
knowing when to shut the fuck shut the fuck up knowing what battles to, knowing when to shut the fuck up.
Knowing what battles to pick.
Knowing when to just calm yourself down and just relax.
All right.
Yes.
I mean, I do think that is a good...
I mean, people might argue with me too, but it's like you can't fight over everything.
Because then that's not fun.
And I know you, and I want to be specific to you. me too but it's like you can't fight over everything because then that's not fun and i
know you and i wasn't specific to you i know you know the artist shutting the fuck up because when
i even said learning the artist shutting the fuck up you shut the fuck up i was like gotta be quiet
yeah you could you could have been like oh you know but i was like oh my god she took she knows
she knows a lot of people think i'm crazy, but, you know, this is a matter of opinion.
This is my buddy thinks you're crazy.
People think everybody's crazy.
I guess so.
You know, people got a lot a lot of shit to say about a lot of stuff, if that makes sense.
Yeah.
Real quick.
We're going to take a break.
We'll be right back.
Yep.
Real quick, we're going to take a break.
We'll be right back.
And we're back.
Let me, I want to know how you.
I'm so proud of you.
Me?
Yeah, you're doing your thing.
You know, I'm trying.
I'm trying to have a nice time and do things that I want to do.
I'm telling you, it's just one thing.
It's like,
you can wish somebody happiness,
but it's like when you root for certain people,
certain people get a certain amount of success and you're like,
oh,
whatever.
They might be nasty or bad people or whatever, but it feels good when you see someone is deserving.
Someone that's putting the work in.
When you see them getting their shine,
you know what I'm saying?
You respect them.
Like every time I see you pop up on, and this the the nice way i'm saying i'm like get it bitch
i'm really really happy for you really happy for you i mean that i know thank you so much
i love seeing you everywhere and i like your comedy is so funny to me and i loved you on
chapelle show and i just want to know, like, how did you get,
how did you find comedy?
Tell me.
Tell me your story.
So I never thought that this was what I was going to do.
In fact, I was a police officer in the Air Force.
I was waiting.
I got out.
I was waiting to be a cop in D.C.
And I used to go to this comedy club with some people I used to work with.
And I used to heckle the comedians.
And I started creating a following of people that wanted to come and hear me just heckle people.
And, of course, the club owner wanted me to be quiet,
so he asked me to go on stage.
Then two weeks later later I went on
stage and it's been what I've been doing for 27 years it was all by chance I never thought that
this would be something that I wanted to do it just happened wait that's so magical that you
got on stage crushed and then just kept doing it yeah I knew it was the first thing and first time
in my life when I said this is what I'm going to be doing for the rest of my life.
Of course, I was younger then, but I was like, oh, shit, I love this.
It was incredible.
And then how did you meet Chappelle?
So when he cast you on Chappelle's show, had he seen you?
Were you friends?
Well, I mean, technically, he approved of me being on the Chappelle show.
Neil Brennan casted me on the Chappelle show,
but it wasn't really a cast.
That's what a lot of people misunderstanding.
People like, yeah, you guys were the cast members.
We weren't the cast members.
Nobody was the cast.
The only cast was Dave.
That was the only person.
Everything else was like, you come in,
you get a sketch, if you're good, you might come back.
It wasn't like SNL, we were like this.
And the new cast member, it wasn't that.
It was like, if you're funny, you come back.
But I wouldn't have been on the show if it wasn't for Neil
and if it wasn't for my relationship with Dave,
of him knowing of me coming through the DC ranks,
because he's a DC comic.
And whenever someone leaves, we look at them as people that we look up to,
no matter what their age, because they finally left their hometown to do it.
And then Dave, he became fond of, he was already a fan of my stand-up.
But then he became a fan of me as a comedic actor.
He never saw me doing these sketchy things.
It was just like, I'm going gonna pick people on the show that i
think are funny and hopefully it works out that they could make it work in front of the camera
also you know yeah i i just kind of like how i don't know you've been like authentically yourself
and then good shit has happened to you and i like that i like when that happens to people
yeah i don't i mean it's i can't be I know it sounds crazy, but I only can be myself. You know what I'm saying? And like, hopefully, like if I can build a fan
base of following off of me being authentic, you know, I like that idea, but I can't front,
I can't lie. I can't not be who I am. And I'm never trying to be anybody else.
In almost 30 years, I've
built a strong following of people that understand
that and see my work
and my work ethics.
You were on The Wire, and what was that
like? Was that like...
I personally have
never seen The Wire, but that's drama.
Right? Yeah, but it's drama.
But if you're a fan, if you're a real real fan of The Wire, you know that drama, right? Yeah, but it's drama. But if you're a fan,
if you're a real, real fan of The Wire, you know that that was a series created by David Simon.
And it was a police officer. David Simon was a police journalist in Baltimore.
It was a police officer. They wrote a book called A Corner. And it followed this one family
in Baltimore and their child's tribulations of being of that environment
and um the choir was basically a spinoff of the corner but the corner show was so dope and was so
much dope literally and figuratively speaking because it was about these heroin addicts that
you can't continue that story it's the same story So they had to figure out a way to the popularity of that neighborhood,
the writing styles of David Simon.
They had to find something else to do.
And that's where the wire came up.
And David Simon is one of those guys that if you notice any project that he's
worked on, you usually see the same people.
He's very loyal and keeps like the same cast of people around him.
I was, I was able
enough, I was lucky enough or worked hard enough to position myself to be on the corner. And then
The Wire came around. I auditioned for that. I got it and I continued our relationship, but
it was a great show. Like people that, it's interesting when I go places, people like this,
yo, you are one of the greatest shows in history.
And I'm like,
I don't know what you're talking about.
And the reason why I say that
is because The Wire is considered
one of the greatest shows in television history.
And The Chappelle Show is considered
one of the greatest shows in television history.
So for me to be able to align myself with both of them,
I said, yo, if anything happens to you today, whatever,
yo, just those two.
And being a part of history, I was like, you did your job.
Yeah, that's really fucking cool.
Like to be two of the greatest shows
in the history of television,
like one's comedic, one's dramatic.
Donnell's got the range, honey.
That's what she said.
He can do it all.
That's what she said. He can do it all. That's what she said. I love
saying that. I love saying that for
anything. That's what she said for
anything. That's what she said.
Yep.
So wait, so you were in, you were, you were going to
be a cop. So have you ever fucked
anyone in the uniform?
I did. I was, I used
to shoot dice in my uniform
because my last duty station,
I was stationed
at Bowling Air Force Base
in Washington, D.C.
And I grew up in that area.
So, yo,
I was the worst.
I used to shoot dice
in my cop uniform.
I used to fuck chicks
in my cop uniform.
I was the worst cop ever.
Boy, thank God that I got out of the military.
I'd have been corrupt.
I definitely would have been corrupt.
Did women,
were they like throwing themselves at,
did they like,
were they like,
I love a man in uniform?
No, I'm telling you,
only the,
almost all the relationships
I ever been with,
it wasn't,
it was always because
I was a funny guy.
Like I would laugh, i would laugh i would laugh
you into some pussy you know i mean he's so funny he's so funny next thing you know bong bong bong
you got it were you were you like funny and a ladies man in high school has this always been
you or did you like i wanted to be a ladies man but i was just a ladies friend you know i'm saying they didn't want to fuck me they wanted to hang out with me they was
like oh man make sure daddy will come he gonna make us laugh like i would make these motherfuckers
laugh and then the football players would snatch them up i would get them warmed up i feel like i
was a horse breeder i thought i was you know horse breeders that's what they do they have when they bring horses they got one horse
they get the the female hot right uh-huh they get them hot like and then soon as the dude is about
to like think he about to go they bring the thoroughbred in and all he do is this ah and
then he's out so the dude is doing all the all, the horse man, the man horse, or whatever you call him,
they get him, they got one, did just all the foreplay,
and then the fancy horse come up and just busts a big load.
Bloop, and then there's out.
You know, blue balls was developed.
Horses were the first ones with blue balls.
I'm telling y'all.
What a wild imagery.
It's the truth.
Fun fact.
You may not know.
Horses were the first people with blue balls.
Horses were the first people with blue balls.
You heard it here first.
Why won't you tell me?
It's very educational.
Wait, Donnell, are you married currently or are you a single man?
I'm a single man. I got a baby mom. I was never married. I dabbled with the idea of marriage
when my son was born, but I didn't make it to that. Unfortunately, I thought about it.
I thought about it. I thought it was to be good know, I don't think that's going to happen in my life right now.
Fair.
I also always thought I would get married when I was younger.
I was like, ooh, I'm going to get married.
It's going to be really cute.
And then the older I get, I'm like, I don't think I need it.
I think if I'm with somebody, I'm with somebody.
If I'm not, I'm not.
Like, I don't need to be married.
I think a lot of women don't need to be married.
I just think a lot of women want that party.
The biggest thing, do you want to be married?
No, I want to get married.
But do you want to get married?
And it's so tough.
We all hear the numbers.
Divorce is like 50% of the people that get married get divorced.
And then you say, well, why should I even take a chance if the outcome is probably going to be that?
I haven't felt that union or the person that I want to be bonded
where I can say, this is who I want to be with for the rest of my life.
I like pussy a lot.
I like pussy a lot.
You know what I'm saying?
Not like in no reckless way, but, you know, like, you know,
I like the company of women.
Fair. And I like that you know that I like the company of women. Fair.
And I like that you know that about yourself because there's a lot of men out there who lie and they say they don't like pussy that much.
And then they fuck around with one lady and then they end up cheating on her.
And then it's mad.
It's sad.
It's not good.
I got to fuck.
Cheating is like, I know I'm sounding like some Will Smith and Jada shit.
You know what I'm saying?
I don't know. I don't know.
I don't know.
I feel like this.
Men cheat for sport and women cheat for revenge.
Ooh.
That, I think, is it.
I think that's right.
I do think that it is like you did something so i'm gonna do
something to you and then men are just like why not exactly the thrill of the chase i got you i
did it well a woman of you gotta get caught cheating first thing a woman says like you say
used to your guy said i love you first thing a woman says, how could you say you love me? And you cheated because I fucked her.
And I know it's a tough one.
Like men, we could smash something without being in love.
Which is interesting to me.
And I used to think I could do that.
But as I get older, I'm like, uh-oh.
I went out with you a couple times,
we had sex, and now I feel things.
It's hard to differentiate what is just sex
and what is actual feelings.
Yeah, but a lot of good,
you know this,
they could make your feelings move a lot quicker
than what you thought.
You start ignoring all those red flags,
ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding,
because that's usually lust, and you're, ding, ding, ding, ding.
Because that's usually lust,
and you're trying to turn lust into love.
Yeah.
Oh, boy.
I'm so horny right now.
Oh, my goodness. I haven't helped.
I got to go find something.
I got my titty caught in the window of a car.
My friend rolled down the window and i was
titty caught that sounds like a new rap song y'all hear that new titty caught shit got my titty caught
caught up caught up in the shit um i was leaning over the car window and i wasn't wearing a bra and I was talking to my friend.
Wait a minute.
Wait a minute.
Come on now.
How did you have?
See, you telling this story too fast.
What was your titty doing out of the window?
Okay.
So I was leaning into a friend's car and I was doing a bit.
I was being funny. I wasn't wearing a bra because I was going right back friend's car and I was doing a bit. I was being funny.
I wasn't wearing a bra because I was going right back up in the house.
And I guess my titty was resting on the window and there was just like an inch of the window left.
And they didn't want me to like lean too much on the window.
So they rolled it down.
And as they rolled it down, my nipple got sucked up in the window.
And then I started panicking.
And I was like, am I going to be part of this car forever?
Am I ever?
Is this going to take my fucking nipple off?
And then I screamed.
And then he rolled it back up.
And then I screamed even harder because I was like, I don't know what's happening.
And then I ripped my titty out and it felt exhilarating.
And I was like, I need to get fucked because that was exciting for me.
I just want to
give you a ride somewhere.
Yeah, they're going to be like this.
They're going to be like this, yeah.
You know, all it takes you to do something one time,
yeah, that's the titty window girl
right there. Yeah, yeah,
that's the titty window.
And then I'm nasty. I'm old school.
I want to give you a ride in an old car.
It got the windows that you roll up.
You got to crank it down.
Yeah, crank that titty.
Crank it.
Oh my God. It really hurt
and it left a little bit of a bruise.
It sounds like you want to revisit that.
It sounds like you
want to do it again. I mean, I wouldn wouldn't say no that's how horny i am that's what she said no
i mean that's what she's saying you can get it whenever you want you just you just don't know
when you want you can get it whenever you want i'm just picky right now i just want someone to like love me i'm like tired i just want to be in a relationship and i'm
trying really hard to not look for it but it's just so hard to not look for it i mean you're
in a good place now to look for this one thing to be looking for and not be successful and you're
struggling but you know you're in a good place you like you're in a good place. You're like, you're in a very good place. I'm telling you, it's going,
I'm so psychic when it comes
to this type of shit. It's going to
happen. And you're going to be like this. You could be
like, maybe a Dunkin' Donuts
on me like this. I think this is going to happen,
Donnell. It's going to happen.
I was in a laundromat,
and this dude said that I have any extra quarters,
and Donnell, we're getting married!
Donnell, you don getting married. You know,
you don't think I got a washer and dryer in my place.
But you know, I ain't going to no fucking laundromat.
No,
I'm kidding.
I'm not missing the point.
No,
no,
I'm not.
I get it.
That's where the men are.
That's where they are.
That's where the men are.
Yeah,
in the laundromat.
Go to the laundromat.
And I go to,
you know what?
I go,
when I was younger,
I remember we used to go to the laundromat. And I still go to the laund man and I go to you know what I go when I was younger I remember we used to go to the laundry man and I still go to the laundry man just I just it's something about being in
there the smell it just reminds me of my childhood running around with my little brother and my
mother telling us get down you don't get a quarter. I'd go in there sometimes just to wash a load of clothes just to
reminisce with that time.
That's so sweet. I
hate it going to the laundromat
because when I lived in New York, I lived in a six-floor
walk-up, so I had to take all of my
fucking clothes down the stairs and then
take them all the way the fuck
back up. It was truly
awful. I'm going to tell you one thing.
For the guys that listen to this you want to
you want to get your freak on go to the laundromat because you got to remember usually women have
washed all of their shit so they got the skippiest booty short i'm telling you man the laundromat in
a high rise be poppin wow this is funny because jan Janelle James told me to go to Target to find men.
So you're saying men should go to the laundromat,
and Janelle's like, you should go to Target
to find a man. Yep, or Home Depot.
Either way. Ooh!
I never fucking
thought of Home Depot.
But Home Depot, I feel like, is probably
full of married men running errands for their
wife. I don't know.
Fixing shit around the
house yeah that's a good point but i'm telling home depot home depot laundromat post office
all right home depot psychos psychos post office but yeah
um okay so that's that's good advice those are good locations i think to try to find somebody
right you said don't really hit on anybody.
What other advice do you have?
I don't, like, it's just strange to me.
I don't think, but see, I don't know.
I'm only, I'm probably getting one side of you.
This is like, hey, I'm available.
But we don't know the psychotic side of it. Because I don't see, I can't see you with your personality.
I can't see you, like, not having a guy you know i mean it
doesn't make it doesn't add up oh well thank you i do appreciate that yeah i guess i'm like uh
i mean i am a crazy person i don't think anybody's not crazy yeah yes yeah i said in an interview
the other day they were like uh what drives you to do comedy
and i was like mental illness to leave your comfy cozy home at night to go to a strange location
to make people laugh in the dark that's mental illness and i love it and people don't understand
like it's people always say oh man comedy is therapy it's therapy for the people that's doing
a comedy also because that's the place that we
feel the most comfortable. That's the
place that we're not afraid. That's the
place that we're in total control.
We create the narrative and we
see it through. So it's
on both sides. And I always, people are
like, oh, I really needed you tonight. I'm like,
no, I needed you tonight. I needed you.
Yeah. I once
wrote a joke about a friend and like an issue we were having.
And then they were at the show.
They're on the same show.
And they were like, can you not talk about our issues on stage?
Like, that sucks.
And I was like, oh, fuck.
You don't work the same way as me.
I was like working out the issue on like I was trying to make it funny.
So it was OK with me.
And they were like, yeah, don't talk to me about it.
And I was like, oh, okay.
Oh, no, that's not the right person.
That person, if you got to understand,
and like I've been in relationships
where it was things I want to talk about
and I might switch the name up a little bit.
I don't want to go hard,
but I got to work it out there
because when you decide that you don't want to be with me,
I'm like, at least I can get 20 minutes worth of material.
Thank you for being my writer
bitch thank you for writing for me bitch yeah it's funny because i dated somebody who asked me
they were like do you ask permission before you talk about people on stage and i was like
oh i mean no i uh yeah i just changed the name but most part, it's like, it's both of our experiences.
And if you want to talk about your side of it on stage, you could go.
Let's you could do that.
A comedian is never going to be with somebody that's sensitive about what they talk about on stage.
It will not happen.
Yeah.
It will never happen.
Yeah.
I don't think that would it wouldn't work.
It is funny, though, like, sometimes I'm like,
maybe I should stop talking so much about my life.
But I was like, I don't know, shit keeps happening in my life
that it's like, I have to talk about it.
It's like the good Lord.
You have an interesting life.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, my titty got sucked up in a window.
That doesn't.
Here you go.
So you know what's so funny?
You can get away with that.
Now, if I would have told you, it's so weird, because I was in this car last week,
and I was just hanging.
My dick was out the window, and my dick got caught up in the window.
Yo, my dick got caught up in the window.
Everyone would be like, why is your dick out?
What happened?
What are you doing?
You're terrorizing this person in this car.
How is your dick out?
I would have had about 40 other people like, yeah, I remember I was in the car with him
and his dick hit the windshield wiper.
Why do I talk about this 20 years ago?
My dick was out 20 years ago.
Why didn't anybody see about it then?
Real quick, we have to take another break.
Donnell, I have a question. you you have a netflix special coming out well i had well it's interesting i taped off netflix special five months ago right about five or six months ago this
was when like we were still like in the pandemic i did it at the film or theater in charlotte did
the show i got a stand-in-old.
I stand like there was a producer, Ricky Hughes, everybody's all excited.
And we did promos for the release of it, which was supposed to be March the 17th.
I get a call from Dave last week saying, Daniel, I want to shoot the special over.
And I was like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Right.
And when he broke it down, it made a lot of sense.
First, my ego was like,
what do you mean it wasn't funny?
It was funny.
But you've been there.
It's a difference between,
he said to me,
Danielle, I could put you in any room any given night and you would rip it.
He said, but that does not make it special.
You get what I'm saying?
You can have,
and it was a good,
it was a good special.
But what he's trying to do, especially with the home team with earthquake and other people doing he's not trying to do a good special
he wants to do classic he wants shit to be evergreen he wants stuff that
it's just part of your legacy part of your time capsule and when i looked at it took a look at it
i had a lot of covid jokes and there i had
a lot of current event stuff which in the moment it felt good it was for it was for like it was
more stuff like if you're doing like the fallon show when you're doing topical stuff in that
moment it felt great at that moment but then when i look at it with us coming out of the pandemic
everything i was like this it would have been dated you know and um i had already started even when i taped the first
one i had already started working on a new set because i need i was going to need um jokes to
tour with yeah you know so it just like it was a blessing in disguise we just postponed it i had
already been in a situation where i was working on some new stuff.
And now I had to check myself. I'm like this. If the joke is not talking to me,
if it doesn't have a strong point of view, I don't want it. If it's not me being an older dad,
if it's not me talking about dating a younger woman, if it's not anything that's
reflective of who I am, I don't want to do it. And the way I got to go at it now is like,
I want to do a special where it doesn't matter when you play it, it would make sense.
The only thing you might not understand is like the only thing, only thing that would date it
is like clothes or something like that. But I really want to make a, I don't want to just have a single on an album.
I want to make Miss Education Lauryn Hill.
I want to make the chronic.
I want to make Snoop Doggy dog style.
So that's where I'm at.
And it's going to come out soon.
And I already got the check.
If the check clears, you know, who cares?
They can make that shit an NFT.
I don't give a fuck.
The check clear.
I got to say, like, that's, I love fucking hearing that.
I love that you were able to look at your shit and go, oh, this is topical stuff.
This isn't evergreen.
Ten years from now, people are going to be like, wait, what?
Oh, I guess I remember that.
Because there was a lot of specials that came.
And I'm not knocking anybody.
But there was a lot of specials with a lot of COVID stuff.
And when I did mine, I was like, I want to keep the COVID stuff to a minimum.
Because we will be out of this.
10 years from now, I want someone to look at it and be like, oh, I get that.
And I really, really appreciate that you were like, no, this can be better.
I can do better.
And it's like standing aside.
That's like when you knock your ego aside and you go, no, no, no.
I got it.
I can do this.
I can do way better.
Yeah.
Dave helped me knock my ego to the side.
It was a tough pill for me to swallow.
But as I gave it more time, everything he said, it started to make side. It was a tough pill for me to swallow, but as I gave it more time, everything he said,
it started to make sense. And I'm like,
this was really a blessing in disguise.
You know, because when I
did it, we were, the place I did it,
we were still dealing with,
okay, show your vaccine card,
mask on. And even
the first night, two nights, the first night I did it,
we turned away
50% of the audience because they had their vax cards.
You know, so like that first show, the room wasn't packed out.
It was black in the back.
So now you know you can't cut to that shot because it don't match.
It was just the circumstances was just overwhelming.
But I got through it.
You know what I'm saying?
I did that first first night which I
thought it was good I knew I could do better second night I put it all out on a table of where
I was then and the beauty about me going to get down is that if you were to see me do those jokes
now compared to what I did on special you will be like what the fuck happened because they just I
just been building them they've been getting stronger i have one joke that that i did on special that i had only it was something that happened to me
like three weeks prior to me doing a special now this five months later and i always put new shit
on my jokes and now i'm like oh and i'm saying, oh, if I could do that joke now and now I'm able to do it now.
So it's going to be good. And I'm telling you, I'm when I tell you, you see me do stand up.
One thing nobody's ever going to be to take away from me. They can say what they want as me as an actor or whatever.
But on the stand up side, I bring heat. And now with me, with me, with more time to prepare.
and now with me with more time to prepare, right,
and more time to me just to work it out,
when it drops, it's going to be the best that I can be.
I'm really excited to see it.
I feel like jokes are like a cast iron skillet because you're not supposed to wash them
and you're supposed to let the season in, season the food.
And I feel like sometimes people rush.
I'll never get the whole putting a special out
one a year because I'm like you didn't have enough time to season that joke if you do it for a little
bit longer you'll find more but I think that because of my touring schedule and because how
I feel like I run a set you know you go to these do these these improvs and these funny bones
whatever you come in let's um you
coming back i hate you start getting the same people to come i always flip my shit you know
i'm like i always like i could see myself doing a special every two years oh yeah you know yeah
because like i'm always working out i'm always and that part of that too is like me hanging out with dave and touring him
when you see where his work ethics are he's like this motherfucker just did another hour
you know what i mean yeah you know it will it will force you to just level up level the fuck
up it ain't no like you're trying to compete level up you said the right word level up a lot
of people confuse it oh you compete no
i'm leveling up just trying to get on that level i was in portland at helium and dave had been at
helium i think like a couple weeks before me and nick the guy who was running it at the time was
like chappelle's insane he like came in sat down and was like what do y'all want to talk about
and then the next day came in with a whole new hour and i was like yeah man that's but see that's what people that's like certain people
write different ways some people are just technical but i'm but i'm but i'm just some
people like me personally i get to that point i get blocked when i'm not um engaged with what's
going on in the world you know i'm saying like, if I could get a topic or something
that I feel passionate about it,
you know,
I could flip material.
Like,
it ain't crazy.
As long as I'm like,
I'm talking about this.
When you're an older motherfucker
dating a younger chick
and I start sharing
my experiences,
whatever,
I can write
jokes and jokes and jokes.
But then when I'm kind of like,
if I get to that point,
we all get to the point we're two ourselves, we don't want to engage the public or anything, But then when I'm kind of like, if I get to that point, we all get to the point
we're to ourselves,
we don't want to engage
the public or anything.
That's when I get blocked.
But as long as I'm engaged
with people
and I can hang out with people
and just see what's going on
in the world,
I can write material to no end.
And when are you shooting that?
Or have you already
shot the reshoot?
I'm giving myself,
I'm giving myself,
I'm ready now.
Because again, like I said, we shot the
original five months ago and I
had already started working on different stuff.
I just want to run this shit
maybe for another month and a half
and then go back to the drawing board and get ready
to drop the heat. But until then
I got, I'm on
the BMF
Stars, the show
Black Mafia family on stars.
And also got a run.
You said co-starring, but on
the winning time, it's like
maybe four episodes.
It's a good thing
to see me on, but I'm just going to keep
grounding it out and keep building my podcast up
and when it special drops, I think the
momentum of people will be ready
and they'll be excited for it, even more excited.
I'm excited for it.
Well, we've come to the end.
