00:00:04.639 --> 00:00:08.560
Welcome back to the reboot that nobody asked for.
00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:12.000
TJ Ferguson, Jamal Russell.
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:14.320
We'll just say it's episode one of Mill Talk.
00:00:14.480 --> 00:00:15.599

00:00:15.839 --> 00:00:16.399
Yeah.
00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:17.440
New place.
00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:18.480
New vibe.
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:19.679
New place, new vibe.
00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:21.359
We're not on that dingy couch.
00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:22.000
Dingy couch.
00:00:22.239 --> 00:00:23.280
In that basement.
00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:26.480
We had the worst shooting setup.
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:30.000
We could go anywhere that didn't look like we lived in a trap house.
00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:32.000
Yeah, man.
00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:33.359
Moved up in the world.
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:35.520
That old velvet green couch, bro.
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:37.679
It was so uncomfortable too.
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:40.960
We had the camera all in the back of the hallway.
00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:41.679
In the hallway.
00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:43.840
Yep, next to the washer and dryer bedroom.
00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:45.119
We had to put it all in the back.
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:47.119
But it was um look at this beautiful setup.
00:00:47.280 --> 00:00:50.719
It was that uh that was that I was using a different camera then too, though.
00:00:50.799 --> 00:00:51.920
This is a little easier to use now.
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.119
Yeah, you got your small little osmoso dingy.
00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:56.799
This makes it easy to use.
00:00:56.880 --> 00:00:57.600
But welcome back.
00:00:57.759 --> 00:00:58.320
Oh yeah, yeah.
00:00:58.719 --> 00:00:59.920
Episode one of Bill Talk.
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:00.159
Cheers.
00:01:00.479 --> 00:01:00.799
Cheers.
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:01.840
Look at this.
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:05.120
Yeah, I missed it.
00:01:05.439 --> 00:01:08.560
TJ is now a professional drink maker.
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:10.560
Uh he got the little smoke thing.
00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:11.760
You know, you saw the men's.
00:01:12.000 --> 00:01:12.799
I didn't smoke this one though.
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:14.640
You didn't smoke this one, you got the little smoke thing.
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:15.840
He always do the little smoke thing.
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:16.640
Presentation.
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:21.040
Because if I smoked it, I wanted to smoke it up here, but then I was like, if it flies, it's gonna hit the carpet.
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:22.159
So yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:24.079
Yeah, that's a that's a downstairs adventure.
00:01:24.239 --> 00:01:25.359
Yes, everything, yeah.
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:25.760
See that?
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:28.319
Yeah, but also didn't put egg white in this one.
00:01:28.480 --> 00:01:30.000
But you know, we here.
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:31.519
Still tastes good to me.
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:32.239
We are here.
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:34.239
We are back, new setup.
00:01:34.400 --> 00:01:38.319
You know, we got a nice little table with plants and some pictures up there.
00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:40.560
Loving the setup, aren't you?
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:41.439
Yeah, look at this.
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:42.400
Oh, we got some.
00:01:45.200 --> 00:01:46.000
We got mics.
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:48.400
Uh the you know, because remember last time?
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:52.719
I remember all the times we used to record, and TJ used to fuck it up.
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:54.239
And have to start again.
00:01:54.480 --> 00:01:56.159
Or we would get not recorded.
00:01:56.400 --> 00:02:00.799
We got so many lost episodes just because that was because that was my bad.
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:02.079
The recording was off.
00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:02.719
That was my bad.
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:03.840
Remember those days, man?
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:04.560
It was some gold.
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:05.359
That still happens.
00:02:05.439 --> 00:02:06.159
I did that last night.
00:02:06.879 --> 00:02:08.560
You messed it up on your 101s?
00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:13.199
When I recorded my whole set and then canceled the recording before it was over.
00:02:13.280 --> 00:02:14.879
So the open mic.
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:15.759
Yeah, that still happens.
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:16.560
See, that's news.
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:18.719
You gotta tell the people about you coming back.
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:20.159
Uh three weeks in a row.
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:20.719
Coming back.
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:21.599
Three weeks in a row.
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:25.840
I don't know that I'm all the way back, but uh, you know, it feels good to be back out there.
00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:27.680
He got new jokes.
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:29.840
Doing new jokes about his new life.
00:02:30.159 --> 00:02:38.639
It was a little, it was, it's interesting being back, and I tell people this all the time because like you can leave, you can quit comedy and come back, and nothing will have changed.
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:39.680
No, we still.
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:41.199
Last night was proof, bro.
00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:43.360
And I was like, But you got the new comics, man.
00:02:43.520 --> 00:02:48.080
Yeah, you got new comics, but the comics I know, I'm like, y'all doing closures on free shows?
00:02:48.719 --> 00:02:50.400
We trying to get listen, man.
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:51.599
We trying to get paid.
00:02:51.840 --> 00:02:52.719
But you getting paid.
00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:56.719
You are you have traction, but like I'm like, why are we doing closures and open mics?
00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:00.800
Man, ever since the Kevin Hart came out, everybody stepped that game up.
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:03.520
But there's a closure on an open mic, though.
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:11.280
It's just like because uh the majority of what I

worked was new, but it's just like you know, open mic, you can just all right, that's it.
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:12.400
Exactly.
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:13.520
That's all I got to work on.
00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.120
Like, we don't I I don't know.
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:23.280
I mean, I I'm guilty of it too, but it was just interesting being out so long and coming back and seeing people.
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:24.879
You thought everybody's gonna work all new?
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:32.960
Not I don't think I thought people would work all new, but I thought they would be working something something else.
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:38.960
I'm like, we full-blown closers on a five-minute set, and it's you I guess I I don't know.
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:40.159
I got a different perspective now.
00:03:40.240 --> 00:03:42.800
I got a different perspective having not been there for a while.
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:46.240
It feels good.
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:52.639
I'm also like, why am I doing just as well with new as you doing with your regular material?
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:55.039
And this is good material, bro.
00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:57.599
I mean, you good, and then Yeah, I don't know.
00:03:57.840 --> 00:03:59.680
Just gotta, you know, I gotta talk my shit, man.
00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:00.400
Not humble.
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:01.520
No more humble TJ.
00:04:01.599 --> 00:04:02.400
No more humble TJ.
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:03.280
No more humble TJ.
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:04.560
Okay, you're just coming out of everybody's throat.
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:05.840
Coming out of everybody's throat.
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:07.199
Foot on the gas.
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:08.240
Foot on the gas.
00:04:08.319 --> 00:04:11.120
I'm gonna do two rooms and I'm gonna make it.
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:14.400
Uh it feels good to be back, though.
00:04:14.800 --> 00:04:15.280
It was fun.
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:16.079
It feels good.
00:04:16.160 --> 00:04:18.800
I think also working new material helps it be more fun.
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:22.240
I think part of getting out, I just got bored of doing the same shit.
00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:23.680
But I wasn't writing.
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:24.319
True.
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:24.800
Yeah.
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:27.519
We also unemployed.
00:04:27.680 --> 00:04:28.879
I'm also unemployed.
00:04:28.959 --> 00:04:30.800
Yeah, I've also got nothing else to do.
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:34.240
That contributes to the life.
00:04:34.560 --> 00:04:35.759
Also just hanging out.
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:36.160
Yeah.
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:40.000
You gotta be applying for jobs and how's that going?
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:41.600
I actually love it.
00:04:42.319 --> 00:04:44.959
You either love applying for jobs or being unemployed.
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:46.160
Being unemployed.
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:48.240
Being unemployed is fun for a while.
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:56.160
Like, I mean, I gotta get, I know I have to get a job, but like, it's just also just like the rat race that we live in isn't like actual life.
00:04:56.480 --> 00:05:02.000
Uh so it's like when you aren't in that for a little bit, you're like, oh damn, I got time to do what I want to do.
00:05:02.079 --> 00:05:03.920
I got time to like focus on me.
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:08.399
Um But it's also hard too with Have you run out of shit to do?
00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:10.639
Oh, dude, I'll get so bored every day, bro.
00:05:10.720 --> 00:05:12.879
I'm so like starred for human interaction.
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:16.800
So that's probably another reason I want to like get out and like do comedy in.
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:31.680
Because I'm just at the crib like with honey to-do list, like, you know, trying to get like the room and stuff ready, or like trying to write, or trying to figure out something to record, or trying to figure out something I'm gonna sit here and bullshit about for a 30-second clip that's gonna get 250 views.
00:05:31.839 --> 00:05:33.600
So disrespect on Instagram.
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:34.319
Right.
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:35.920
The algorithm sucks.
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:38.560
Anytime you do anything different, it's like, nah, bro, that's not you.
00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:39.600
What are you doing?
00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.160
And it for me it was because I was posting memes.
00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:44.720
My memes, I had memes with like two million views.
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:46.000
And I started posting myself.
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:47.920
Instagram's like, who, who, why?
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:49.680
Nobody wants to see your face, bro.
00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:51.600
But Instagram did come out.
00:05:52.079 --> 00:06:02.319
The the algorithm guy or whoever it is who works there, he did come out and he said Instagram is no longer gonna push people who don't record their own content.
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:13.519
So that the people who do the memes or like the face beside you and just point, they said they're gonna push that the bottom, and everybody who does original content or themselves, bro, my meme is gonna push you to the top.
00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:15.279
My memes used to be destroying.
00:06:15.439 --> 00:06:20.160
Like I would post a meme, and within 20 minutes I'd have like five.
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:21.199
Go back to the meme.
00:06:22.399 --> 00:06:24.240
No, because it's just it's so easy, bro.
00:06:24.319 --> 00:06:36.079
It's so like and then it's like when I do put my own stuff out, people aren't the following I gain from getting memes don't want to see my original content because they swipe to see memes.
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:37.839
Yeah, they they followed you to see memes.
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:38.959
They followed you to see memes.
00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:42.240
It's a bait and switch, man.
00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:44.000
So they want like five to ten seconds.
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:46.319
You treated them like how you treated me when I got here.
00:06:46.480 -->
00:06:51.600
But this was look, you asked me to you asked me when I helped you move, I owe you anything.
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:52.399
I said no.
00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:53.360
You said no.
00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:54.079
I said no.
00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:55.920
I said, if anything, get me a bottle.
00:06:56.160 --> 00:07:00.800
Um, so this is this was your repayment helping me move this chair upstairs.
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:01.120
Yeah.
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:03.360
See, you must have put that in a fine agreement.
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:04.800
Now you move this chair upstairs.
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:07.040
You know, I did thank you and sent me a bottle though.
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:10.959
So we got this package in the mail, and it was like from Spirit something.
00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:14.079
I was like, oh damn, Maul sent me a bottle for helping them move.
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:15.759
But it wasn't.
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.519
To be honest with you, I would have took credit for that.
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:22.160
If you would have told me, it was like, thanks for the bottle.
00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:23.600
I'd be like, hey, you're welcome, dog.
00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:24.240
But it wasn't.
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:25.920
We opened it up, it was a plaque.
00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:30.480
And it was a plaque for like number one gen something award.
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:33.439
So somebody had won some type of award and they had sent it to the wrong place.
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:34.800
It wasn't for us.
00:07:34.959 --> 00:07:35.759
Did you keep the plaque?
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:40.319
So we had kept the plaque, and then it was I guess it was two weeks ago.
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:51.759
I had gone to the Defenders game, and Tamaria was having her book club, and she said during their book club, this lady just shows up at the door and she was like, Did you guys get a plaque delivered here?
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:53.360
Like, did you get this plaque?
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:57.120
And apparently it was her husband who had some event in LA.
00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:58.000
It was his.
00:07:58.079 --> 00:08:00.800
He had that they had won some kind of award for this gin.
00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.279
So he needs that plaque to take to LA with him.
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:05.439
And it was just so happened that we still had it here.
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:07.360
Oh because it was just hanging out.
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:09.600
We were just like, I don't know.
00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:10.879
I'm just saying no.
00:08:10.959 --> 00:08:11.519
Yeah, I don't know.
00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:13.680
He was like, Yeah, no, we ain't got no plaque to live with.
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:17.279
I was like, but I was like, damn, Maul sent me a bottle.
00:08:17.360 --> 00:08:20.160
I was like, I was propping you up, and I was like, Oh, this ain't from Maul.
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.639
I was like, I just helped him move.
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.279
I just helped him move.
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:27.680
Here's the thing, too.
00:08:27.920 --> 00:08:30.639
Helping someone move is the worst, and you can't say no.
00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:34.559
Because you asked me, I was like, damn, Maul, Maul really considers me a friend.
00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:37.519
I was like, this Negro done asked me to help him move.
00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:40.080
I was like, I wasn't gonna ask.
00:08:40.159 --> 00:08:41.519
I was gonna thug it out myself.
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:43.679
Nah, bro, you still be moving.
00:08:43.919 --> 00:08:45.919
I was gonna thug it out myself, man.
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:47.039
Just me.
00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:48.720
You know who helped me move in the other place?
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:49.279
My mom.
00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:52.399
Yeah, I was like, Maul help, I'll help him, I'll help him move.
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:53.759
She was a terrible help.
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.720
But it's funny because I'll ask someone, like, help me move, and be like, oh, I can throw you 50 something.
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:00.720
Oh, nah, you could hook it, don't worry about it.
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:03.840
And then you give it to them at the end, and they don't never like, oh nah, keep it.
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:06.320
They'd be like, Oh, thank you, take the shit.
00:09:06.639 --> 00:09:08.080
Yeah, I offered, man.
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:08.960
You said no.
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:10.480
So I'm like, I'm good.
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:12.399
People like, I got some pizza and beer.
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:13.679
I'm like, sir, I'm grown.
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:17.440
I don't even want to help you for a pizza party.
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:19.440
Pizza.
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:20.720
Got some pizza.
00:09:20.879 --> 00:09:25.279
And then they'd be like, yo, bro, you go, I just helped you move and you got some little Caesars.
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:26.879
Got you a five-dollar hot and ready.
00:09:27.919 --> 00:09:29.120
Got a five-dollar hot and ready.
00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:31.360
And them shits just be sitting all day.
00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:32.320
Nasty.
00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:33.120
Nasty.
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:35.279
Then I ordered Lil' Caesars one time.
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:37.039
They were supposed to make it custom, bro.
00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:39.600
They just put stuff over top of a hot and ready.
00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:40.799
You're supposed to make it custom.
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:45.039
Like, you know, you can like make your own little ingredients and stuff, so they gotta cook it fresh.
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:48.000
They just put the ingredients on top of a hot and ready.
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:51.120
Sent it to me.
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:54.399
But you know, whatever.
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:56.720
I don't know, but I don't do little Caesars, man.
00:09:56.799 --> 00:09:57.279
I'm bougie.
00:09:57.519 --> 00:09:58.960
The little Caesars are actually underrated.
00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:01.919
I do little Caesars for my
senior citizens because they if you get it.
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:03.840
I'm not doing extra for them.
00:10:04.000 --> 00:10:07.200
Yeah, if you get it, if you get the hot and redies, it's trash every single time.
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:10.000
But if they like actually make it there, it's it's underrated.
00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:11.759
For like a cheap pizza, you really can't beat it.
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:13.039
So little Caesars.
00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:13.840
Yeah.
00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:15.600
So what's your top five?
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:16.559
Top five pizza.
00:10:16.879 --> 00:10:18.080
Top five pizza chains.
00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:19.519
Top five pizza chains.
00:10:19.759 --> 00:10:21.279
My number one is Jets.
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:21.919
Jets?
00:10:22.320 --> 00:10:23.039
Jets pizza.
00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:25.039
Isn't that the worst rated one?
00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:25.600
No, Jets.
00:10:25.919 --> 00:10:30.320
I feel like every time I see a top five or like one of those little influencers, they go to Jets, they hate it.
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:31.600
No, Jets is crack, bro.
00:10:31.840 --> 00:10:32.480
Where is Jets?
00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:34.000
This one right around the corner from here.
00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:35.039
I didn't know it was in Maryland.
00:10:35.120 --> 00:10:35.919
I always see him in Ohio.
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:37.440
Yeah, nah, Jets is great.
00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:38.080
Jets?
00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:38.879
Um.
00:10:40.080 --> 00:10:41.919
I like Papa John's.
00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:49.279
If you were asking 12, 13-year-old me, Pizza Hut would have been on there, but Pizza Hut is just Pizza my number one.
00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:49.679
Really?
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:51.039
Pizza Hut number one.
00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:58.799
Nah, maybe I just I guess I haven't had it in a while because it's just it's not the same now that they don't have the go in, sit down, play with the jukebox.
00:10:58.879 --> 00:10:59.440
Oh, back in the back.
00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:01.039
The red cups.
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:03.279
Yeah, it's just, it's not the same.
00:11:03.519 --> 00:11:04.639
Oh, you okay.
00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:06.320
Yeah, the nostalgia of it.
00:11:06.720 --> 00:11:07.039
The pizza.
00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:09.919
Yeah, so I don't know if the pizza was better or if I it was just the idea.
00:11:10.799 --> 00:11:12.240
Yeah, it was just the idea.
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:14.240
I do remember going inside.
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:15.840
But pizza at my number one.
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:16.639
I love pizza.
00:11:17.360 --> 00:11:18.480
I've never had pizza in a long time.
00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:23.519
20 bucks, you can't beat it.
00:11:23.759 --> 00:11:25.360
They used to have something back in the day.
00:11:25.440 --> 00:11:26.720
This is when I was in high school.
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:32.720
I don't remember if it was called the beast or I don't know what it was, but it was three pizzas, and they would put them in
one box.
00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.159
Yeah, I remember a rectangular box.
00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:36.559
Yeah.
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:41.039
I remember me and one of my homeboys was in high school.
00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:42.240
We were high as shit.
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:47.759
So we went to Pizza Hut, got the box or whatever, like sitting in my Jeep eating it.
00:11:47.919 --> 00:11:51.600
And my uncle walks by and I'm like, oh hell, he's gonna know I'm high.
00:11:51.759 --> 00:11:52.720
He's gonna know.
00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:54.240
And then you just had some pizza.
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:56.240
Yeah, you just hanging out, just chilling.
00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:57.919
And some pizza, dog.
00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.840
Uh I used to work there too.
00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:00.960
At Pizza Hut?
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:01.919
In high school.
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:02.559
That's my job.
00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:04.159
I used to work at Six Packs Pizza Hut.
00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:05.279
Are you scamming there?
00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:05.679
No.
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:06.639
No.
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:11.279
You told me about the job.
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:16.080
Tell the people how you were scamming on the on the on the car rental job.
00:12:17.279 --> 00:12:18.320
Listen, man, it's not.
00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:20.320
I was just trying to get some extra money, man.
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:21.759
Which entails scam.
00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:24.639
They did fire me, though.
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:26.159
I was trying to get some extra money.
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:28.320
Because no one buys the insurance.
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:29.039
Okay.
00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:29.840
No, they don't.
00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:33.200
No one buys the insurance, but you get paid commission on the insurance.
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:33.600
Yeah.
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:39.440
So what I did was I used to take a corporate code, put it into their reservation, right?
00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:44.480
It'll knock their per day rate from like 30 or 45 to like 15.
00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:45.039
Okay.
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:50.080
Then I'll add the$20 a day life or insurance.
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:54.480
Then I'll get their daily rate back up to$30 without them even knowing.
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:57.759
Before they even showing up to the place, I'd have done that before they even show up.
00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:01.519
And their price is the same or cheaper with the insurance.
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:03.519
So did they even know they had the insurance?
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:03.679
Yeah.
00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:04.639
Or you just okay.
00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:07.440
I tell them, I was like, I'm like, here, this is what I got for you, right?
00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:09.519
Your bill was$300 for the week.
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:14.559
I got you$300 for the week, but I also got the insurance on there, so you're covered.
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:15.360
Same price.
00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:16.159
No difference.
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:17.679
Or just a damage waiver.
00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:19.039
Or do you have like all the personal?
00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:21.519
I add as much as I want to get the price the same.
00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:21.919
Right?
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:25.600
Because I could add as much if it's hired, I start taking some shit off.
00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:30.000
So I'm like, I'll just add like damage waiver or like or roadside assistance.
00:13:30.080 --> 00:13:30.480
You know what I mean?
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:31.679
So you over there doing math.
00:13:33.519 --> 00:13:34.159
That's$3.90.
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:35.200
I can take that off.
00:13:36.480 --> 00:13:37.440
I can move this one up though.
00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:38.000
I take this one.
00:13:38.080 --> 00:13:38.480
I got it.
00:13:38.559 --> 00:13:40.799
And if they argue with me, I'll give them a better car.
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.759
Why would they argue with you giving them insurance?
00:13:44.000 --> 00:13:44.799
Because sometimes they do.
00:13:44.879 --> 00:13:45.759
They used to argue with me.
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:47.519
The price will go.
00:13:47.600 --> 00:13:49.840
I give them, I could save them$75 with the insurance.
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:50.480
And they still argue.
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:51.440
They used to argue with you.
00:13:51.519 --> 00:13:52.559
Because they'd be like, I don't really need it.
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:53.360
I don't want that.
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:55.039
I'm saving you$75.
00:13:55.440 --> 00:13:58.159
But the thing is, they so dumb that they don't understand how it works.
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:03.519
So people be like, because I used to work at Enterprise, and like people be like, I got my own insurance.
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:07.279
I'm like, yeah, but with your insurance, if something happened to this car, you still gotta pay the deductible.
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:10.000
So if your deductible is a thousand dollars, exactly.
00:14:10.159 --> 00:14:10.960
You still gotta pay for that.
00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:12.320
And they'd be like, nah, nah, I'm good.
00:14:12.399 --> 00:14:13.519
I'm like, you don't understand.
00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:14.720
This is gonna relieve you.
00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:17.279
This is$45 for three days.
00:14:17.360 --> 00:14:20.240
This is gonna relieve you of having to worry about that.
00:14:20.399 --> 00:14:24.000
And we had the car blow up, you just give us the keys and you go home.
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:24.639
And you go home.
00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:25.279
That is it.
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:27.200
And then we had, man, it was a crew.
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:30.159
So a majority of our rentals were insurance rentals.
00:14:30.320 --> 00:14:34.960
So through the week, it was just like they not buying insurance because like they like somebody already hit my car.
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.600
I've already done whatever, I'm not paying for your insurance.
00:14:37.759 --> 00:14:43.600
But then they would have
the weekend specials like Friday through Monday, where you could get a compact car.
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:48.399
I want to say it was like$9.99 a day for the weekend.
00:14:48.720 --> 00:14:59.200
And every week, it would be 300, 350-pound dudes that would come in trying to get a weekend special on a compact car.
00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:01.600
Take them out to the car, talking about, I can't fit in here.
00:15:01.840 --> 00:15:04.240
Sir, you know, you know damn well you wasn't gonna fit.
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:05.120
You 500 pounds.
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.200
You know damn well you wasn't gonna fit in that motherfucking car.
00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:10.240
And our compacts was like the Chevy Sonics, like the Fiat.
00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:11.679
Or Honda Fitz.
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:12.559
I can't fit in there, sir.
00:15:12.639 --> 00:15:14.240
You knew what size you were when you booked the compact.
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:15.440
You wanted the cheapest red.
00:15:15.840 --> 00:15:16.720
And I wanted to upgrade.
00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:18.000
Them dudes, I don't help.
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:18.879
You would help?
00:15:18.960 --> 00:15:19.919
Them dudes I don't help.
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:21.360
Them dudes I don't help.
00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:23.759
I'd be helping the this this is where I used to eat.
00:15:23.919 --> 00:15:25.120
But big bread, bro.
00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:27.919
When people used to book those uh 12-seater vans.
00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:28.480
Oh yeah.
00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:30.559
Them 12-seater vans, because they used to they'll book them all.
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:35.919
They'll book them online and it'll be like$1,200 just for the van, right?
00:15:36.080 --> 00:15:37.519
So here's what I do for that.
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:44.720
I go in, I'll see their name, I'll book them, I'll create a reservation for them online, like through my laptop in the house.
00:15:45.919 --> 00:15:47.519
You working off the clock scamming people.
00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:47.919
Yeah, sir.
00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:49.120
I gotta get I gotta get this money.
00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:50.559
Off the clock scammer.
00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:55.440
I'll book them online because if you book them on the computer at work, they'll see that shit.
00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:56.639
And they'll be like, oh, you book this.
00:15:56.720 --> 00:15:57.279
I'm like, nah.
00:15:57.360 --> 00:15:59.600
So I book it online as I'm like if I'm name.
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:02.080
I see their name, I'll write all that shit down.
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:05.200
I'll book the same thing, I'll book a compact car.
00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:06.559
You go through so much extra.
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:10.799
I book a compact car in the they'll have two reservations.
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:14.320
I'll book a compact car in the name for the same amount, for the same length.
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:14.639
Yeah.
00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:16.559
And then I'll add all the insurance.
00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:18.320
Because it's way cheaper.
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:20.399
It'd be like$200 instead of$1,200.
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:24.559
Then I'll add all the insurance and then I'll upgrade them for like a price.
00:16:24.799 --> 00:16:26.240
Because you get an upgrade commission too.
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:27.039
Yeah, I get an upgrade.
00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:29.919
I'll upgrade them to the 12-piece of a van.
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:34.240
So they'll get a 12-passenger van.
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:35.440
I get all the insurance.
00:16:35.519 --> 00:16:38.720
I get the upgrade for$70,$75 a day.
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:39.840
All that commission.
00:16:40.399 --> 00:16:42.240
And they'll come to me like, yo, that was a great sale.
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:44.080
I'm like, hell yeah, no.
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:45.840
You did more work.
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:48.240
You did more work.
00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:54.240
You did more work to not do your job than you would do on your regular job.
00:16:54.480 --> 00:16:55.600
You were at home.
00:16:55.759 --> 00:16:56.080

Yo, bro, you should be.
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.000
If you hadn't gotten caught, you wouldn't have never gotten into comedy.
00:17:12.160 --> 00:17:13.200
You would never move back.
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:16.240
You would be a regional manager for Hurts right now.
00:17:16.480 --> 00:17:17.599
Yeah, they would have promoted me.
00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:20.000

So can you put my battery in?
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:37.200
I tipped her though.
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:39.039
She was like, they ain't tipped, man.
00:19:39.119 --> 00:19:40.079

00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:47.279
When I did the uh I came in as a that's right after that was a job I had right out I got fired from Avis Budget.
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:49.920
And I moved back here.

That was my first job back here in DC auto zone.
00:19:55.200 --> 00:19:57.359
And I had to do like this uh meeting.
00:19:57.920 --> 00:19:59.599
So they hired me as a manager.
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:01.440
So I was a gray shirt.
00:20:02.160 --> 00:20:03.440
I was a gray shirt.
00:20:03.599 --> 00:20:04.079
Not the red.
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:05.119
Not the red.
00:20:05.359 --> 00:20:06.400
So that's how they did it.
00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:09.039
They did it, they were very racist in this big meeting.
00:20:09.279 --> 00:20:09.519
Okay.
00:20:09.680 --> 00:20:17.839
So when you go to this big meeting, like a big warehouse in like buoy or something, Bowie, Maryland, they was like, alright, it's a bunch of red shirts and gray shirts in here.
00:20:18.000 --> 00:20:22.640
I want the red shirts to go on this side, and I want the gray shirts to go on that side.
00:20:22.880 --> 00:20:23.279
Right?
00:20:23.519 --> 00:20:30.319
And then during lunch, they was like, we don't want, we want the gray shirts to talk to the gray shirts to get to know each other and the red shirts to talk to the red shirts.
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:31.279
You feel good, didn't you?
00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:33.359
Yeah, I was on that gray shirt side.
00:20:33.440 --> 00:20:34.880
And a little red shirt trying to walk across.
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:38.319
I'm like, bro, hey, go back, go over there.
00:20:39.039 --> 00:20:41.920
And they had this weird, but I didn't know auto zone had a chant.
00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:42.880
They had a chant.
00:20:43.200 --> 00:20:45.200
Oh, they're they're trying to get you to drink the Kool-Aid, bro.
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:46.400
But he spelled it out with their name.
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:49.119
You had to like, you had to be a cheerleader.
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:55.200
It was like, A, U, T, Z, E, O, E, Auto God.
00:20:55.759 --> 00:20:56.400
Who did that shit?
00:20:58.000 --> 00:20:59.920
Like, I'm not gonna be here for long, man.
00:21:00.240 --> 00:21:01.839
So that was the worst shot of AutoZone.
00:21:02.000 --> 00:21:02.799
Yeah, I didn't like it.
00:21:02.960 --> 00:21:03.279
Why?
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:08.799
Just first of all, it was It was a lot of manual labor.
00:21:10.079 --> 00:21:14.000
It was a lot of manual labor, and I couldn't finagle for extra money.
00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:14.880
You know what I mean?
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:16.799
Like, I couldn't finagle for extra money as a manual.
00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:22.960
Like, I'm putting in, I'm putting headlights, uh, batteries, windshield wipers.
00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:25.519
I'm like, I don't know shit about cars.
00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:26.400
Nothing.
00:21:26.559 --> 00:21:27.920
I'm getting asked a lot of questions.
00:21:28.000 --> 00:21:28.319
I don't know.
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:29.359
I was making shit up.
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:30.720
That's what you gotta do.
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:31.920
I would just line to people.
00:21:32.160 --> 00:21:32.880
Fake it till you make it.
00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:34.480
I was just lying to people, bro.
00:21:34.640 --> 00:21:36.160
Then you had to do those planograms.
00:21:36.240 --> 00:21:38.079
I don't know if you ever worked a retail store.
00:21:38.240 --> 00:21:39.599
I mean, I worked at a sprint retail store.
00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:40.960
You had to do like the planograms.
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:42.400
Oh, I just like a story about that.
00:21:42.799 --> 00:21:48.160
Listen, you gotta take down this whole shelf to reimagine it to like the way they want it now.
00:21:48.240 --> 00:21:50.720
But I'm like, the way it is, is fine.
00:21:50.880 --> 00:21:52.240
No, but that stuff expired.
00:21:52.400 --> 00:21:55.839
But they had to take this whole thing down and then they gotta do it again.
00:21:56.079 --> 00:21:58.079
The trucks come, I had to manage.
00:21:58.400 --> 00:21:59.279
It was in the hood, too.
00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:04.400
It was all the In the hood, so I had to manage hood rats who can't know who boyfriends will come in.

You know what I'm saying?
00:22:15.119 --> 00:22:16.960
Money missing from the hash register.
00:22:17.039 --> 00:22:18.079
Like, I know who stole it.
00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:19.599
I'm not trying to say nothing.
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:21.279
I'm not trying to be a snitch, boss.
00:22:21.359 --> 00:22:21.920
You know what I mean?
00:22:22.079 --> 00:22:22.240
Bro.
00:22:22.880 --> 00:22:25.039
And then the manager above me, he was a hood rat.
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:27.759
The dude who managed all the managers was a hood rat.
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:29.680
All he cared about was his hellcat.
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:31.519
And if it was working that day.
00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:32.559
And he's getting parts.
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:35.440
Yeah, he's just walking in a shisty.
00:22:35.759 --> 00:22:37.039
He got that job to get parts.
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:38.240
Bro, that's a funny.
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:39.039
That's funny.
00:22:39.119 --> 00:22:42.319
I've I um interviewed for a part-time job.
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:46.319
I think this was probably like 2000, it was probably 2020 during the pandemic.
00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:49.519
I was working at the airport for an Enterprise.
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:53.920
It wasn't Enterprise, but it was like a knockoff enterprise or something.
00:22:54.000 --> 00:22:59.440
Anyway, long story short, I was a person that would just move the car from the garage to the car wash.
00:22:59.519 --> 00:23:01.440
They wash the car, I bring it back.
00:23:02.000 --> 00:23:04.319
So I go on the interview, but I dress up.
00:23:04.400 --> 00:23:08.319
You talked about this on your thing, the you talked about this on your um Instagram the other day.
00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:09.119
You know, you dress up.
00:23:10.319 --> 00:23:10.880
So I go in there.
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:12.480
I made myself presentable.
00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:14.559
I got on button up, some slats, you know what I'm saying?
00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:15.519
Looking stupid.
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:20.240
And a nigga with a Chicago Bulls hat comes out looking stupid.
00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:24.079
Nigga with a Chicago Bulls hat comes out to interview me.
00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:26.480
Bro.
00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:32.400
So, bro, like the only way you weren't getting hired is if you had something on your driver record.
00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:37.920
So I get hired, and my supervisor is a nigga named Howard.
00:23:38.720 --> 00:23:41.359
Big, big fat black dude.
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:42.799
Couldn't nobody stand him.
00:23:42.880 --> 00:23:44.559
They everybody just talking shit about Howard.
00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:45.519
I can't stand Howard.
00:23:45.599 --> 00:23:46.559
I can't stand Howard.
00:23:46.640 --> 00:23:47.839
But they all lazy, bro.
00:23:47.920 --> 00:23:51.519
They too lazy to walk to the car, drive the car, and get like everyone.
00:23:51.599 --> 00:23:54.640
Like, I'm like, bro, everyone should be a superstar at this job.
00:23:54.720 --> 00:23:55.519
It's so easy.
00:23:55.759 --> 00:23:58.559
Howard talk about, damn, you seem like you catch on pretty quick.
00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:00.799
I said, Nick, all I'm doing is moving cars.
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:04.480
What is there to catch on to?
00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:07.839
Like, what's there to catch on to?
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:09.440
This is easy.
00:24:09.839 --> 00:24:12.160
So uh, but yeah, that wasn't the worst job.
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:22.559
The worst job I've ever had, which I talked about too, was I did so I had a few, like, I won't say this is the worst job because it taught me a lot, but like working for my dad through like high school and stuff, doing construction.
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:24.000
No, construction.
00:24:24.160 --> 00:24:31.200
He has on concrete business, so it's like 95 degrees out, hot manual labor.
00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:36.559
I would go back
to school every year looking like a foreign exchange student from just getting toasted by the sun.
00:24:36.640 --> 00:24:38.160
I would go back black as shit.
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:40.480
You left the purple, you used to wear purple?
00:24:41.440 --> 00:24:43.839
I got more like red, but you couldn't even see my beard.
00:24:43.920 --> 00:24:44.880
You know what I'm saying?
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:46.079
So that was working.
00:24:46.160 --> 00:24:53.519
But the only thing like working with your dad, anything that happens on a job site that goes wrong was my fault.
00:24:55.519 --> 00:24:56.799
It was always my fault.
00:24:56.880 --> 00:24:58.400
I didn't even have to be there.
00:24:58.559 --> 00:24:59.759
I could be off.
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:01.920
Somebody hit somebody in a truck or something.
00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:02.960
Like, well, what happened?
00:25:03.039 --> 00:25:03.680
I wasn't even working.
00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:05.119
Well, you should have known that it was gonna happen.
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:06.559
You should have called him and told him.
00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:11.759
Working with your dad, is it weird when you're off and he he's on?
00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:14.240
Well, the thing is, I was I was never really off.
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:19.680
Because like like it won't really no sick days or my dad's like a hard ass.
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:21.279
Like, get it, get it out the mud.
00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:23.119
Which he did.
00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:28.640
I mean, he made a life for himself off of a high school degree, you know, making really good money.
00:25:28.880 --> 00:25:32.000
Oh yeah, you know, my dad high school degree, yeah.
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:33.759
Like but he didn't make a life for himself, yeah.
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:38.640
So he made a life for himself, like super well, very well respected in the community and stuff, both parents.
00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:43.200
But you know, so like that was like, you know, so it taught me a whole lot, but I used to hate it.
00:25:43.519 --> 00:25:44.880
I used to hate it.
00:25:44.960 --> 00:25:51.519
And my dad's like uh, you gotta do this this way, you gotta do this, this, this, or it's wrong.
00:25:51.599 --> 00:25:54.480
And I'm like, Well, I'm good at this.
00:25:55.440 --> 00:25:56.799
Well, you gotta know how to do this.
00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:00.000
Well, well, but what can I just keep doing this?
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.960
Yeah, but like what if hear me out now?
00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:04.960
Hear me out, what if?
00:26:05.359 --> 00:26:10.400
Um, that so that was that was an experience, but you know, I grew to not mind it.
00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:11.279
Uh-huh.
00:26:11.519 --> 00:26:14.319
But doing door to door in New York, that was a wild experience.
00:26:14.559 --> 00:26:16.960
I did door to door in Providence, Rhode Island.
00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:18.240
Yeah, I was in New York.
00:26:19.359 --> 00:26:20.319
Yeah, I did that shit.
00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:25.839
So, but uh, I I went into the interview and I was like, Yeah, I don't want to do this.
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:29.839
Because I had done door to door in Houston, I didn't like that.
00:26:29.920 --> 00:26:33.440
And then this was door to door, and he was like, Listen, mate, I'm gonna give you a paycheck.
00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:34.480
Come out for a week, try it.
00:26:34.559 --> 00:26:35.920
If you don't like it, you know I'll pay you.
00:26:36.000 --> 00:26:36.880
And you're going your way.
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:39.039
Second day on the job, he's like, You got your passport?
00:26:39.119 --> 00:26:41.519
We're going to headquarters in Manchester, you want to go?
00:26:42.799 --> 00:26:45.839
So I'm on a plane to Manchester, like two days in.
00:26:46.079 --> 00:26:50.000
We go to Manchester, we're going to a rally in Liverpool.
00:26:50.160 --> 00:26:55.440
And this rally is just like people from around the globe, and they're just talking about how much money they've made.
00:26:55.519 --> 00:26:56.640
So this person made this much money.
00:26:56.720 --> 00:26:57.759
It's a pyramid scheme.
00:26:57.839 --> 00:26:58.240
I understand.
00:26:58.400 --> 00:26:59.759
Yeah, this person made this much money.
00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:00.880
I'm out there chilling, bro.
00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:02.000
Like, I'm living a good life.
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:03.279
I'm beating big wigs and stuff.
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:04.960
You meant to quit when you get back.
00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:06.559
No, I didn't, so I quit.
00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:10.720
We went on a road trip to Albany, and there was a blizzard.
00:27:10.960 --> 00:27:14.799
It was like six, seven inches of snow, and they were like, get out there, let's get in the field.
00:27:14.960 --> 00:27:17.279
So I'm traipsing around in my timberlands.
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:23.440
So what I was selling, different agencies or subsidiaries sold different stuff.
00:27:23.519 --> 00:27:26.240
So mine was World Society for Protection of Animals.
00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:33.279
So I was basically showing up on people's doorstep being like, hey, no, you didn't plan on saving the animals today, but here's your chance.
00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:39.359
And then it was like, I don't know if you know it, but they got these bears in whatever country, and they make them play hockey.
00:27:39.599 --> 00:27:42.480
So it's like YouTube videos of bears playing hockey.
00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:51.119
And you show these people, I was showing talk to that, and then I remember I was like smoking Newport Reds, like in New York, like$13 a pack.
00:27:51.200 --> 00:27:53.039
And they were like, if you sell two a day, you're doing good.
00:27:53.200 --> 00:27:55.279
You're gonna have a good life for yourself, two a day.
00:27:55.440 --> 00:28:01.839
But I mean, it was getting you knocking 100-150 doors a day, most slamming doors.
00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:06.960
Some people would invite me in for a beer, and it was a Friday night, it was like 8 30.
00:28:07.119 --> 00:28:08.400
I'd already sold one.
00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:09.680
I knocked this woman's door.
00:28:09.839 --> 00:28:11.359
She's like, Oh my gosh, come in.
00:28:11.519 --> 00:28:12.160
She signed up.
00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:13.039
I gotta sign her up.
00:28:13.119 --> 00:28:14.319
I was like, what made you buy today?
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:16.559
She was like, she starts crying.
00:28:16.880 --> 00:28:18.319
She starts crying, bro.
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:22.160
She's like, my pet just died, and it's great what you're doing.
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:23.200
Sign here.
00:28:24.880 --> 00:28:25.519
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:26.720
Just sign right there with you.
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:28.319
Keep talking.
00:28:28.559 --> 00:28:31.440
So that was that was probably the worst job.
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:33.039
That was probably the worst job that I had.
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:35.759
But I mean, it was it was a good experience because I got to go to UK.
00:28:35.839 --> 00:28:38.079
Oh, and I got the I had to go out in the field in UK.
00:28:38.480 --> 00:28:39.599
We went out with a rep there.
00:28:39.680 --> 00:28:41.279
I went out with this dude named Wasseen.
00:28:41.440 --> 00:28:43.839
He was he was doing his for Red Cross.
00:28:44.079 --> 00:28:45.200
Much easier to sell.
00:28:45.359 --> 00:28:46.720
So we go to five doors.
00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:47.519
He sold three of them.
00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:49.359
He was like, yo, let's go to the mall.
00:28:49.920 --> 00:28:50.480
Done.
00:28:50.799 --> 00:28:53.680
Went to the mall, went to Old Trafford, got to see that stadium.
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:55.279
But it was a wild time, man.
00:28:55.359 --> 00:28:59.359
And then I had a friend from grad school that moved to New York, so I got him signed up for the job too.
00:29:01.279 --> 00:29:10.240
We were out there together, just I I was so many sales, I I had so many sales jobs, but I ne I always found the lupo.
00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:13.759
I never I never just done the sale.
00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:17.680
You were one slip up away from having a completely different life, Jamal.
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:25.359
You were one slip up away from like going away for two, three years and coming back.
00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:27.039
I used to work so less.
00:29:27.279 --> 00:29:33.200
Because I used to I used to sell, bro, I used to sell Cox Cable inside of Walmart.
00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:34.319
Oh, bro, that's the worst.
00:29:34.400 --> 00:29:35.759
I see them people table.
00:29:35.839 --> 00:29:36.160
Oh, bro.
00:29:36.319 --> 00:29:37.759
Improvidence is sell that shit.
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:39.519
Before you tell me that story, tell me that story.
00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:42.400
But this was recently, this was in the last six months.
00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:45.359
I go in, we in Target.
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:47.440
Black dude come up to me.
00:29:47.519 --> 00:29:49.839
I have my Travis Scott's on, he's so we start
talking about sneakers.
00:29:49.920 --> 00:29:51.039
I'm like, oh they get you.
00:29:51.279 --> 00:29:52.319
Oh, you got phone service?
00:29:52.480 --> 00:29:53.119
T-Mobile?
00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:55.119
Oh yeah, I can get you cheaper than that.
00:29:55.279 --> 00:29:57.279
So I'm talking, I'm just entertaining him.
00:29:57.680 --> 00:29:58.960
I'm just entertaining him.
00:29:59.119 --> 00:30:01.599
But I've given him some information and stuff like that.
00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:05.119
And then like you get to the end, and I'm like, bro, I'm not, I'm like, I'm not gonna switch right now.
00:30:05.200 --> 00:30:09.279
I was like, I'm just I was like, I'm I've done sales, I'm in sales, you know, I'll hear you out.
00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:14.640
I get home the next day, I got an email the next morning from ATT talking about welcome.
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:22.640
I was like, sir, absolutely not.
00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:26.640
But you can go to your story now, but that just made me remember that.
00:30:31.680 --> 00:30:33.279
They kicked me out of that Walmart.
00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:36.319
I used to get these niggas down.
00:30:42.079 --> 00:30:44.480
It was me and this old dude.
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:45.839
We used to stay in there.
00:30:46.000 --> 00:30:49.279
This old dude was so mad because he was he was trying to make sales the honest way.
00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:51.440
Like he was telling the truth and nothing but the truth.
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:54.319
I'm like, you I'm told, I'm like, you're not gonna make no sales, tell the truth, bro.
00:30:54.400 --> 00:30:56.079
You gotta lie to you, motherfuckers.
00:30:57.279 --> 00:31:02.319
Because the sale was like, say you got internet$50 a month, right?
00:31:02.400 --> 00:31:03.359
It was two years.
00:31:03.519 --> 00:31:06.559
After two years, that shit jumped to like$160, right?
00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:10.079
I he used to have a placemat with the price check at the bottom.
00:31:10.319 --> 00:31:11.519
Letting them know that it was gonna change.
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:12.720
Letting them know it was gonna change.
00:31:12.799 --> 00:31:13.920
I cut that shit off.
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:20.319
I cut that shit off.
00:31:20.559 --> 00:31:21.599
I'm glad I was never worried.
00:31:21.759 --> 00:31:22.640
I'll be so mad.
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:23.839
I cut that shit off.
00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:26.000
Because once they got installed, you got your money.
00:31:26.160 --> 00:31:28.640
So that's all you had to do is get a quick install date.
00:31:28.720 --> 00:31:32.880
Instead of going like, yeah, I'll get installed in two weeks, so they can call Cox and try to do that reason.
00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:34.480
Nah, you get that shit next day.
00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:37.119
I used to get, I used to make so much sales, right?
00:31:37.519 --> 00:31:39.119
Lying to these motherfuckers.
00:31:39.359 --> 00:31:42.559
And then on my day off, like, he was there by himself.
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:50.240
They
used to come, the customers used to come looking for me, yelling at him, like, yo, he told me it was 60 bucks a month.
00:31:50.319 --> 00:31:55.759
I called Cox, it was$95 a month, and I already signed up, they already installed it.
00:31:55.839 --> 00:31:57.440
I'm like, they already installed it?
00:31:58.079 --> 00:31:59.920
I fucked that Walmart up, they switched me.
00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:01.119
There's the thing.
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:03.920
Cox was getting so much money from me.
00:32:04.079 --> 00:32:04.400
Right.
00:32:04.559 --> 00:32:05.440
They didn't fire me.
00:32:05.519 --> 00:32:06.480
They were like, we moved each other.
00:32:06.720 --> 00:32:07.680
They moved me to another Walmart.
00:32:08.079 --> 00:32:08.880
Friendlier territory.
00:32:09.200 --> 00:32:11.680
We just that Walmart up.
00:32:11.920 --> 00:32:13.279
Bro, I got a homeboy.
00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:14.720
I got a homeboy like that.
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:16.319
I used to work with him at Sprint.
00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:20.559
And uh I ain't gonna say his name, but I ain't gonna say his name.
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:27.440
But he used to live in Syracuse, and in Syracuse he was selling drugs, but he was moving phones like they were drugs, man.
00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:34.240
This nigga would have like cell phones in the back of his car, selling them from the trunk, signing people up for the service.
00:32:34.319 --> 00:32:36.079
I'm like, bro, how you listen, T.
00:32:36.400 --> 00:32:37.839
This is what you gotta do, T.
00:32:38.559 --> 00:32:39.680
This is what you gotta do.
00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:42.000
And I was just like, all right, man.
00:32:42.240 --> 00:32:44.640
Some people just they got that hustle gene, bro.
00:32:46.079 --> 00:32:47.599
I always follow people.
00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:52.400
People like, cause they because going up to them, like, hey, you looking for Cox Cable?
00:32:52.559 --> 00:32:53.440
Never worked.
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:57.440
So they used to go, hey, do you know where like the Pop Tarts are?
00:32:57.680 --> 00:33:00.880
I'm like, yeah, I can show you what a Pop Tarts are, and I walk them over to the Pop Tarts.
00:33:01.200 --> 00:33:03.599
And you just wiggle that way into Cox Cable.
00:33:03.680 --> 00:33:07.039
Like, speaking of Pop Tarts, you buying Pop Tarts must mean you got some kids.
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:14.480
But you got a family, because hey yeah.
00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:16.160
So, you know, what your kids watching?
00:33:16.240 --> 00:33:20.160
We got a nice little kid package, and then come back over to the table.
00:33:20.319 --> 00:33:21.519
You got that hustle gene, bro.
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:24.400
I was fucking, I was making some man, I was making so much commission.
00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:27.519
Call it for fun, because I used to have these commission-based jobs.
00:33:27.680 --> 00:33:30.079
I was making so much money off commission during these jobs.
00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:30.400
Bro.
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:35.680
I used to get fired, and I start selling video games inside the wall inside the mall.
00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:36.880
So you found another.
00:33:37.039 --> 00:33:37.680
That's the thing, bro.
00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:40.559
I used to I used to buy the video game with like little gift cards.
00:33:40.720 --> 00:33:40.960
Yeah.
00:33:41.119 --> 00:33:41.279
Right.
00:33:41.440 --> 00:33:43.759
Oh, you you told, tell me the story again.
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:47.359
I used to buy video games for the in the gift card.
00:33:47.440 --> 00:33:51.920
And I used to buy gift cards, and then I'll buy it, because no one's buying that shit, so I'll buy it.
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:54.000
All right, and then I'll get the commission.
00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:59.599
The video game's like$10, I'll buy a gift card, like$25, and I'll buy like 10 of them bitches.
00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:02.720
Then I'll just give them out to people, like families or whoever the fuck I'll make.
00:34:02.880 --> 00:34:03.680
So you just make them.
00:34:03.920 --> 00:34:05.279
And then I'll get the commission back.
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:06.400
I'll do like the difference.
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:07.119
You know what I'm talking about?
00:34:07.359 --> 00:34:12.400
Like you spend like$50 on gift cards, but then they'll get for selling them, you get a commission on like$1,000.
00:34:12.960 --> 00:34:15.199
So I only spent$50 and I made$1,000.
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:17.280
So I'm like, alright, I'm gonna keep doing this.
00:34:17.519 --> 00:34:19.840
But I used to never, they need to catch on to me.
00:34:20.079 --> 00:34:24.800
Only reason they fired me because for time card fraud, because I never showed up on Sundays.
00:34:25.119 --> 00:34:29.119
You just I was at I took the laptop to be logged into inside the little kiosk.
00:34:29.199 --> 00:34:34.800
I used to take that laptop, go home on Sundays, log in, click, I'm here.
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:41.039
I'm chilling on a Sunday playing video games, nigga text me, like, yo, I'm in the mall, where you at, trying to go to lunch.
00:34:41.599 --> 00:34:43.360
You you were one bit step away, bro.
00:34:43.840 --> 00:34:44.320
Oh shit.
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:47.840
Now I'm I'm like, yeah, I'm in Target right now, walking around, looking at stuff.
00:34:47.920 --> 00:34:48.400
I'll be right there.
00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:54.239
I fucking ordered the Uber, fucking got up there, and that nigga he working at the smoothie store ratted on me.
00:34:54.400 --> 00:34:55.119
Yeah, he ain't over.
00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:56.880
I ain't never seen him on a Sunday.
00:34:57.440 --> 00:35:00.719
He's like, yeah, he never the dude over there told me you never here on a Sunday.
00:35:00.880 --> 00:35:03.920
And then they checked the cameras and like, yeah, man, you never here on Sunday.
00:35:04.000 --> 00:35:04.960
We're gonna have to let you go.
00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:06.719
Did this nigga follow me?
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:10.239
This motherfucker
followed me on Instagram after doing comedy.
00:35:10.320 --> 00:35:13.280
And like, yo, man, see you doing comedy, big ups, bro.
00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:14.960
I'm like, nah, nigga, you fired me.
00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:16.000
After you let me go.
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:17.199
You fire me.
00:35:17.360 --> 00:35:21.199
Yeah, work world, work world, the work world is wild, bro.
00:35:21.360 --> 00:35:22.719
Yeah, that's why it's new.
00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:24.320
Comedy was for me.
00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:28.159
Because I'm like, I keep meaning and nothing.
00:35:28.400 --> 00:35:29.519
I can't find I can't.
00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:33.280
If it's money involved, I'm gonna try to find a way to make more.
00:35:33.519 --> 00:35:43.440
And that's when that's what I feel like why I always come back to comedy because every time I go and do something else, it's like, even when I cut it off when I had my last job, I was like, I'm gonna focus on this.
00:35:43.519 --> 00:35:44.079
You know what I'm saying?
00:35:44.159 --> 00:35:45.199
I'm gonna try to make this money.
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:51.039
But it's just like I be in there, like, man, I don't give a fuck about any of this, man.
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:52.320
Like, I don't care.
00:35:52.400 --> 00:35:55.199
I'm like, I'm making y'all rich, but y'all don't care about me.
00:35:55.440 --> 00:35:56.159
I care about me.
00:35:56.320 --> 00:35:57.199
I never man.
00:35:57.280 --> 00:35:58.480
This is my last job, though.
00:35:58.639 --> 00:36:01.119
I I I said that to myself, I wrote it down.
00:36:01.280 --> 00:36:02.719
I'm like, this is my last job.
00:36:03.039 --> 00:36:03.519
You're gonna make it.
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:04.480
I'm like, this is it.
00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:06.159
And I'm gonna ride them coattails.
00:36:06.239 --> 00:36:07.199
So I'm done.
00:36:07.360 --> 00:36:09.840
When Jamal starts headlining, I'm going on.
00:36:10.000 --> 00:36:11.599
That's the only reason I came back to comedy.
00:36:11.920 --> 00:36:15.360
I was like, I came back to comedy to feature for Jamal Russell, and I'm happy.
00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:16.239
I'm gonna be content.
00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:17.119
I'm like, that's it.
00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:18.079
I'm gonna be content.
00:36:18.159 --> 00:36:23.599
I'm gonna do my two, three DC rooms, post some clips, and go on the road with Jamal.
00:36:24.400 --> 00:36:24.960
Listen, man.
00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:26.639
And have people mad at me.
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:28.559
Nah, man.
00:36:28.639 --> 00:36:32.079
You can't do that because then everybody who be giving me rhythms never give me rhiz no more, man.
00:36:32.719 --> 00:36:33.360
Nah, bro.
00:36:33.440 --> 00:36:34.880
I'm this is what we're doing.
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:35.679
That's my plan.
00:36:35.840 --> 00:36:37.679
You got your plan, I got my plan.
00:36:38.639 --> 00:36:39.440
That's my plan, man.
00:36:39.519 --> 00:36:40.480
I can't work no more, man.
00:36:40.639 --> 00:36:40.960
That's my plan.
00:36:41.039 --> 00:36:43.440
I'm like, yep, I'm riding, I'm riding Jamal's coattails.
00:36:44.159 --> 00:36:45.199
Head it out.
00:36:45.519 --> 00:36:47.280
Comedy is the mission for me.
00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:48.960
And I'm almost, I feel it.
00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:51.199
I feel like I'm I'm like I'm like this.
00:36:51.679 --> 00:36:53.360
Well, you you are killing it, bro.
00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:54.559
I feel like I'm this close.
00:36:54.639 --> 00:36:56.400
I'm not like super close, but I'm like, yeah.
00:36:56.639 --> 00:36:57.199
You killing it.
00:36:57.440 --> 00:36:58.159
I'm almost dead.
00:36:58.320 --> 00:36:58.960
That's the thing.
00:36:59.119 --> 00:37:06.880
That's the thing about comedy though, because I feel like I feel like probably from like 2017 to 2019, that's how I felt.
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:09.039
You look like that's how I felt, bro.
00:37:09.119 --> 00:37:17.119
Like I was like, because remember I got into the San Francisco comedy competition, which isn't as big now as it used to be, but it's still a prestigious like festival.
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:18.639
And I mean, I'm out there.
00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:21.679
Everybody else on that festival was a headliner.
00:37:21.920 --> 00:37:23.039
I'm like a headliner.
00:37:23.119 --> 00:37:25.280
I'm like, I'm not even top dude in my scene.
00:37:25.440 --> 00:37:26.320
You feel what I'm saying?
00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:27.440
I'm not here though.
00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:29.039
I'm not even the top dude in my scene.
00:37:29.119 --> 00:37:30.719
If I'm in this competition, so I feel like that.
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:37.119
I was getting more festivals, and I feel like I was like, I was alright, something's gonna happen, something gonna happen, something, and then nothing never happened, and I was like, what the f- What am I doing?
00:37:37.360 --> 00:37:39.360
Like, what am I doing?
00:37:39.519 --> 00:37:46.239
It's like, it's like, all right, I'm getting in these festivals, I'll do it all this stuff, and then I get back to the home clubs for 11:30 show, like, I got you 13.
00:37:46.559 --> 00:37:47.599
Oh my god.
00:37:48.000 --> 00:37:49.920
The disrespect on your name, man.
00:37:50.159 --> 00:37:50.480
Oh my god.
00:37:50.800 --> 00:37:52.400
You just can't you just came back.
00:37:52.639 --> 00:37:58.400
Because now it's run by like mostly new comics.
00:37:58.480 --> 00:37:58.719
Yeah.
00:37:58.880 --> 00:37:59.119
Right?
00:37:59.280 --> 00:38:02.159
And they're all kumbaya friends type of shit.
00:38:02.320 --> 00:38:02.800
Yeah.
00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:07.119
So if you try to go, like, say I go to a spot, right?
00:38:07.440 --> 00:38:13.360
Everything I've done, credits that I have, I can go to a spot and they won't bump anybody.
00:38:13.519 --> 00:38:14.400
Yeah, you just gotta go up.
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:17.199
And I'm sitting there like, yo, man, can I get can I get some time, right?
00:38:17.280 --> 00:38:19.599
And they'll be like, yeah, but you uh we'll
see.
00:38:19.679 --> 00:38:23.760
Because maybe we got someone coming in who's not here.
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:25.760
And then they'll tell me this person who's coming in.
00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:27.599
I'm like, well, that motherfucker's shit.
00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:29.039
So why are we waiting for him?
00:38:29.440 --> 00:38:30.719
They couldn't just have me go up.
00:38:30.880 --> 00:38:31.360
They don't know.
00:38:31.440 --> 00:38:35.119
But then they'll be like, oh no, man, because we have this state, we don't really want to bump him.
00:38:35.199 --> 00:38:36.559
He did sign up ahead of time.
00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:40.800
But I'm in my head, but I'm like, but I'm here.
00:38:41.039 --> 00:38:45.760
I don't want to be that type of that dude, but I'm like, but I'm but even here, you know what I mean?
00:38:46.000 --> 00:38:51.039
Even like uh, even like coming back out, it's just like you said, like a lot of a lot of newer people don't know me.
00:38:51.199 --> 00:38:53.920
Not that I'm not that I'm anybody, you know what I'm saying?
00:38:54.000 --> 00:38:55.920
But it's just also like I'm funny.
00:38:56.320 --> 00:38:59.920
Like I've always been funny, like I've always been in these rooms.
00:39:00.000 --> 00:39:03.920
So even like last night, I feel like I went after you because no one else wanted to follow you.
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:05.840
So like we're gonna put you after Jabal.
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:06.719
And I'm like, all right.
00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:08.800
They gave me extra time.
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:10.079
I did eight minutes there.
00:39:10.239 --> 00:39:11.119
I was like, all right.
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:12.159
Yeah, you know what I'm saying?
00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:12.960
That's how I went last week.
00:39:13.039 --> 00:39:14.880
They were like, we'll put you at the end, so give you some extra time.
00:39:14.960 --> 00:39:16.400
I was like, oh, y'all still respect me a little bit.
00:39:16.639 --> 00:39:17.199
That's what you're doing.
00:39:17.440 --> 00:39:18.079
That's just true.
00:39:18.239 --> 00:39:18.480
Yeah.
00:39:18.639 --> 00:39:26.880
They might not have a bump rule, but when they do give you time and they think you're like funny or somebody, they'll just be like, all right, instead of five minutes, they'd be like, all right, you can do 10.
00:39:26.960 --> 00:39:29.760
Yeah, because I looked at my phone, I was like, oh, I did eight minutes.
00:39:29.840 --> 00:39:30.800
I did eight minutes of new.
00:39:32.320 --> 00:39:32.880
Thank you, sir.
00:39:32.960 --> 00:39:33.599
You know what I'm saying?
00:39:34.239 --> 00:39:36.400
Because now that's how I finagle it now.
00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:39.920
It's like, since everybody's all kumbaya, nice, they don't really want.
00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:42.079
I'm still mean to some of them, right?
00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:43.119
I'm still an asshole.
00:39:43.199 --> 00:39:43.440
Yeah.
00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:47.039
Because, you know, some of them need to, some of them need that kick in the ass.
00:39:47.199 --> 00:39:50.800
But I just go, listen, you got time at the end, I go at the end.
00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:51.039
Yeah.
00:39:51.199 --> 00:39:53.039
And they'll be like, all right, cool, we can put you at the end.
00:39:53.199 --> 00:39:54.079
Like, that's fine.
00:39:54.320 --> 00:39:54.880
Right?
00:39:55.199 --> 00:39:55.679
Cool.
00:39:55.920 --> 00:39:58.800
If I didn't sign up, just let me go at the end.
00:39:58.960 --> 00:40:00.400
Let me do five to seven.
00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:01.360
We're good.
00:40:01.920 --> 00:40:05.840
That's my compromise to new comics who don't want to be bumped.
00:40:06.239 --> 00:40:06.800
No, I get it.
00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:08.960
But I was I grew up in the game where you get bumped.
00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:10.639
Like Tony Woods came in.
00:40:10.880 --> 00:40:12.000
Bro, we all got bumped.
00:40:12.079 --> 00:40:12.960
We all got bumps.
00:40:13.280 --> 00:40:14.159
We would all get bumped.
00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:15.920
Shay come in.
00:40:16.000 --> 00:40:17.599
You you get you in the back of the line.
00:40:17.679 --> 00:40:17.840
Yeah.
00:40:18.079 --> 00:40:20.239
Everybody would just talk shit about you too, though.
00:40:20.320 --> 00:40:21.679
Everybody was, it was blood.
00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:25.360
A lot of these comics now wouldn't have gotten into the rooms that we were doing.
00:40:25.440 --> 00:40:26.639
Like they went on pride.
00:40:27.039 --> 00:40:28.320
Yeah, they were exclusive, bro.
00:40:28.480 --> 00:40:32.000
I did so many late nights working the door, flyering and shit.
00:40:32.079 --> 00:40:33.920
And I'm like, and I'm doing this shit at the time.
00:40:34.079 --> 00:40:36.239
Like, I don't even need to be doing this.
00:40:36.880 --> 00:40:38.239
No, I didn't, I didn't fly her.
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:40.000
That's one thing I pride myself on.
00:40:40.800 --> 00:40:41.599
I'm not doing that shit.
00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:42.639
I humbled myself.
00:40:42.719 --> 00:40:43.519
I did all that shit.
00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:46.079
I worked seven o'clock in the morning.
00:40:46.159 --> 00:40:47.920
I had to go to work at 7 o'clock in the morning.
00:40:48.000 --> 00:40:54.800
I get off at 5, and you're telling me I gotta come back and do more work just to do five minutes at 1 o'clock in the morning.
00:40:54.880 --> 00:40:55.519
I was like, nah.
00:40:55.599 --> 00:40:59.599
I go to these shitty mics when no one's at, just me and the bartender.
00:40:59.679 --> 00:41:01.679
I go there until you want me.
00:41:01.840 --> 00:41:02.400
That was it.
00:41:02.480 --> 00:41:03.199
That was my thing.
00:41:03.440 --> 00:41:04.719
Yeah, I did all of it.
00:41:05.039 --> 00:41:06.320
I couldn't stand flyering.
00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:07.679
I did all of it.
00:41:07.840 --> 00:41:08.480
It's different though.
00:41:08.559 --> 00:41:09.280
It's different now, though.
00:41:09.360 --> 00:41:10.159
I mean, it's different.
00:41:11.280 --> 00:41:13.039
I've
never seen someone bark in a long time.
00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:19.920
Like, I don't, like, even these shows, when you walk into the show, you've I've never seen, I don't rarely see people outside with flyers.
00:41:20.079 --> 00:41:23.039
It's different, but it's it's different, but it's still the same.
00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:24.239
That's what I'm saying.
00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:26.719
But you went to um, you've been in New York, right?
00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:27.119
Mm-hmm.
00:41:27.280 --> 00:41:28.559
Like Times Square.
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:28.800
Yeah.
00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:30.000
They got motherfuckers barking.
00:41:32.000 --> 00:41:33.199
Yeah, you want to do a comedy show?
00:41:33.360 --> 00:41:37.039
They don't know that I do comedy, because I'm not a big name, but like I'll be walking to me.
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:37.920
You want to do some comedy?
00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:39.039
You want to come to a comedy show?
00:41:39.199 --> 00:41:41.679
They the comedy show is like three miles away.
00:41:41.760 --> 00:41:42.000
Yeah.
00:41:42.159 --> 00:41:43.599
You gotta walk 10-15 minutes.
00:41:43.920 --> 00:41:46.559
They got time square squares giving out flyers.
00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:53.519
When I when I uh when I first moved to New York and lived there, because you mentioned Broadway, Broadway was like the starter club.
00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:56.559
Like I would get in Broadway and think I thought I made it.
00:41:56.719 --> 00:42:03.199
I was like, oh, I'm in Broadway, like I'm doing these shows, and then I came to realize I was like, oh bottom tier and course.
00:42:03.519 --> 00:42:07.920
But I was also doing like because at that time I thought I was an urban comic.
00:42:08.320 --> 00:42:11.599
You know, those are the comics I watched, so that's what I thought that I was.
00:42:11.679 --> 00:42:18.639
So like then I was doing shows like I had worked at Broadway with um her name was JQ.
00:42:19.199 --> 00:42:21.440
And JQ was like, oh yeah, you funny.
00:42:21.599 --> 00:42:22.880
So she started like taking me to the other side.
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:24.559
So I'm like out at the Bronx doing shows.
00:42:24.639 --> 00:42:27.760
So I'm on a show with uh Smokey Swore ass.
00:42:28.239 --> 00:42:28.880
You know him?
00:42:29.280 --> 00:42:30.800
So he was like, he's like a deaf jam guy.
00:42:30.880 --> 00:42:32.800
Smokey swore ass, Michael Collier.
00:42:32.960 --> 00:42:35.599
Okay, yeah, he was on the show, he was hosting the show.
00:42:35.760 --> 00:42:42.000
So I'm in like these shows, I'm like, and I'm in the car riding around with these niggas, and they got TV credits and stuff, and I'm like, oh yeah, I'm making it, bro.
00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:50.480
I'm up in there, and this is like, nope, still, you know, 10, 12, 15 years later, now I'm like almost starting from scratch again.
00:42:50.639 --> 00:42:52.400
But at least it's fun again now.
00:42:53.199 --> 00:42:54.880
Right now, you had a time off, man.
00:42:55.039 --> 00:43:06.159
Yeah, like right now, in this moment of going in and just like working new stuff, and like I want to get a good reaction, but if I don't get the reaction that I want, I know it's because I'm working something new.
00:43:06.320 --> 00:43:07.519
I'm like, alright.
00:43:07.760 --> 00:43:09.599
But it's like I'm still getting a good reaction.
00:43:09.840 --> 00:43:14.239
You get a little something, you get a little, you get a little giggles from half the room on a new bit, you're like, alright, cool.
00:43:14.320 --> 00:43:16.559
Now I gotta make it stronger so the whole room gets.
00:43:16.719 --> 00:43:16.880
Yeah.
00:43:17.119 --> 00:43:22.159
Seemed like cool, but if you get nothing, I I you get nothing on a new bit, I give it three tries.
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:24.079
I mean, alright, that's why I just move on.
00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:30.960
But you also know for the room, so like even some of the bits I wanted to work last night, like a lot of the religion stuff, the black people were fucking with.
00:43:31.199 --> 00:43:31.360
Yeah.
00:43:31.599 --> 00:43:32.159
You know what I'm saying?
00:43:32.239 --> 00:43:39.599
The black people, they know they got it, but the white people were like, we this out my lane, but it's just like, well, have something for everybody.
00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:44.159
No, man, I gotta it's been pretty good.
00:43:44.320 --> 00:43:45.440
Yeah, you got a lot of traction.
00:43:45.519 --> 00:43:48.320
You you've had a really good uh last couple years.
00:43:48.639 --> 00:43:50.159
Last two years has been good.
00:43:50.320 --> 00:43:50.559
Yeah.
00:43:50.800 --> 00:43:52.159
Two years has been good.
00:43:52.960 --> 00:43:56.480
After that don't tell competition, everything has been good.
00:43:57.199 --> 00:43:57.760
Yeah.
00:43:58.320 --> 00:43:59.599
You got some management.
00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:03.039
You know, booking agents.
00:44:04.000 --> 00:44:07.119
Yeah, I might do a little, might do a little.
00:44:07.280 --> 00:44:09.760
I just want to have, you know, when you see those comics.
00:44:10.000 --> 00:44:17.599
The reason I started talking to like the booking agent guys, because you see those comics who they'll do like a small little tour.
00:44:18.239 --> 00:44:19.920
It's like seven cities.
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:22.639
I'm like, that's what I just want to start posting those little flyers.
00:44:22.719 --> 00:44:23.039
You know what I mean?
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:24.000
Those little flyers.
00:44:24.079 --> 00:44:25.199
Hey, seven cities.
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:28.079
I'm being North Dakota and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:44:28.320 --> 00:44:28.719
You know what I mean?
00:44:28.800 --> 00:44:32.880
I know I got a grind to get ticket sales, but I'm like, I just want to post those little flyers.
00:44:33.440 --> 00:44:34.079
And then keep doing it.
00:44:34.159 --> 00:44:34.960
I'm going to start helping you.
00:44:35.440 --> 00:44:36.159
Featuring for just one of the five
minutes.
00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:38.079
And that's it.
00:44:38.239 --> 00:44:40.559
We got our first uh we got our first bourbon of the day.
00:44:40.719 --> 00:44:42.320
First bourbon of the day, benchmark.
00:44:42.480 --> 00:44:44.639
So the cocktails were made with 101.
00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:45.840
Which 101?
00:44:46.079 --> 00:44:47.440
Uh Wild Turkey 101.
00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:48.320
That's what the cocktail is.
00:44:48.400 --> 00:44:48.880
That's downstairs.
00:44:49.039 --> 00:44:49.199
Okay.
00:44:49.360 --> 00:44:51.760
But this is benchmark foolproof.
00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:53.039
Benchmark foolproof.
00:44:53.199 --> 00:44:55.199
So this is Buffalo Trace.
00:44:55.679 --> 00:44:58.159
So all of these are from the Buffalo Trace Distillery.
00:44:58.400 --> 00:44:58.639
Okay.
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:00.079
Buffalo Trace Distillery.
00:45:00.320 --> 00:45:01.519
This is their bottom shelf.
00:45:01.760 --> 00:45:03.199
Okay, the one with the dust on it.
00:45:03.599 --> 00:45:05.199
Yeah, this is their bottom shelf.
00:45:05.840 --> 00:45:06.239
Bourbon.
00:45:07.199 --> 00:45:07.840
But value.
00:45:07.920 --> 00:45:09.280
So you try it, let me know what you think.
00:45:09.519 --> 00:45:10.320
Sniff it.
00:45:10.719 --> 00:45:11.920
Is that how you do bourbon?
00:45:12.239 --> 00:45:16.239
Yeah, I got some I got some actual like of the bourbon glasses downstairs, but I don't like them.
00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:23.039
Why are you just staring at me, dog?
00:45:23.280 --> 00:45:27.280
Because your face went like your eyes got big.
00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:28.719
That shit burned on it.
00:45:31.360 --> 00:45:31.599
Yeah.
00:45:32.159 --> 00:45:32.880
Yeah, you went drinking.
00:45:33.119 --> 00:45:33.840
Your eyes got big.
00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:34.960
You're supposed to taste it.
00:45:36.000 --> 00:45:38.719
You gotta let it hit the front of your tongue first and then let it dissolve.
00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:41.280
I didn't know how I didn't know the bourbon tasting rules.
00:45:41.360 --> 00:45:41.920
I just drunk it.
00:45:42.079 --> 00:45:43.039
What you think?
00:45:43.519 --> 00:45:45.039
It tastes like bourbon, dude.
00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:49.519
But burns a little bit.
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:51.840
Can we have alcohol after you taste?
00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:53.920
Yeah.
00:45:54.239 --> 00:45:55.599
For 25 bucks you can't beat it.
00:45:55.679 --> 00:45:56.159
That's$25?
00:45:56.400 --> 00:45:56.719
$25.
00:45:58.079 --> 00:45:58.320
I get that.
00:45:58.480 --> 00:46:00.239
It has$125 proof.
00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:04.320
How much how much$125 proof would that mean?
00:46:04.960 --> 00:46:06.400
62% alcohol volume.
00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:07.840
You get fucked up, but that shit.
00:46:08.320 --> 00:46:10.320
So that's the first bourbon.
00:46:10.480 --> 00:46:13.280
Yeah, that's that's that's how I think that we don't some bourbon tastings.
00:46:13.360 --> 00:46:14.079
It burns alright.
00:46:14.559 --> 00:46:15.440
It has an afterburn.
00:46:15.599 --> 00:46:16.800
Like it's it's still burning.
00:46:16.960 --> 00:46:17.360
Yeah.
00:46:17.840 --> 00:46:18.960
Is that natural?
00:46:19.280 --> 00:46:20.079
It's natural.
00:46:20.320 --> 00:46:21.840
So don't think you burning though.
00:46:21.920 --> 00:46:23.119
I feel like you used to this burning.
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:23.760
I got used to it.
00:46:24.880 --> 00:46:25.760
So this is a bottle.
00:46:25.920 --> 00:46:28.880
So there's a bottle I want that I can't find anywhere called Stag.
00:46:29.280 --> 00:46:29.599
Stag.
00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:30.239
Yeah.
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:33.920
So a lot of bourbons, I've I've gotten kind of getting kind of big in the bourbon culture.
00:46:34.079 --> 00:46:34.239
Okay.
00:46:34.400 --> 00:46:34.960
So they have these.
00:46:35.599 --> 00:46:39.519
He started smoking meats, he got a grill outside, and he, yeah, see.
00:46:39.840 --> 00:46:41.760
So, but they got these allocated bourbons.
00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:43.440
So they only come out at like specific times.
00:46:43.519 --> 00:46:45.679
So, like this right here, this is probably my favorite.
00:46:45.760 --> 00:46:46.719
This is hard to find.
00:46:46.960 --> 00:46:47.199
Okay.
00:46:47.440 --> 00:46:48.079
Or illegal.
00:46:48.480 --> 00:46:49.360
Harder to find around here.
00:46:49.440 --> 00:46:51.039
This is an Eagle Rare 10-year.
00:46:51.440 --> 00:46:52.559
And this is Colonel E.
00:46:52.639 --> 00:46:52.800
H.
00:46:52.960 --> 00:46:53.599
Taylor.
00:46:53.760 --> 00:47:03.360
Uh, this is bottled in bond, which means that it has to have aged at least four years, and they're like distilling regulations they have to follow, and it has to be 100-proof.
00:47:03.440 --> 00:47:04.719
So I found this bottle the other day.
00:47:05.039 --> 00:47:06.320
So, what is proof?
00:47:07.199 --> 00:47:09.840
That's like uh don't give me the line.
00:47:09.920 --> 00:47:15.679
But it's like the amount of essentially the higher proof, the more alcohol is in the bourbon.
00:47:16.079 --> 00:47:17.119
So I found this the other day.
00:47:17.199 --> 00:47:22.719
They had just gotten a shipment of this, which I've had this bottle for probably five, six months now and haven't opened it.
00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:23.760
You bought these online?
00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:24.159
Mm-mm.
00:47:24.239 --> 00:47:26.639
I found them, I found them at the liquor store, at the ABC store here.
00:47:26.960 --> 00:47:27.920
Oh, okay, in the Virginia.
00:47:28.079 --> 00:47:30.079
So I've been saving opening that, but I finally opened that.
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:31.440
I found that and I tried it.
00:47:31.679 --> 00:47:32.960
So but we'll see.
00:47:33.039 --> 00:47:34.880
We'll see which one's your favorite of the batch.
00:47:35.280 --> 00:47:35.679
Batch.
00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:37.679
I mean of the batch.
00:47:38.079 --> 00:47:38.559
I don't know.
00:47:38.880 --> 00:47:40.800
The last one kind of kind of hurt.
00:47:41.199 --> 00:47:41.840
It burned, right?
00:47:42.159 --> 00:47:42.960
The last one kind of hurt.
00:47:43.039 --> 00:47:44.000
Yeah, the last one kind of hurt.
00:47:44.079 --> 00:47:47.199
So we'll try this one, then we'll see if if you like the same one I like.
00:47:47.360 --> 00:47:50.079
Uh let me tell you, the best drink I've had.
00:47:50.239 --> 00:47:52.719
I'm not a bourbon hardcore guy.
00:47:52.960 --> 00:47:58.159
The best drink I had, I headline like a distillery in like Haymarket, Virginia.
00:47:58.320 --> 00:48:03.119
They had a Snickerdoodle apple cider.
00:48:04.239 --> 00:48:04.559
Alright.
00:48:04.800 --> 00:48:06.639
Snickerdoodle flavored apple cider.
00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:07.679
Oh, I think I've had that.
00:48:08.000 --> 00:48:08.960
Out in Ashburn?
00:48:09.599 --> 00:48:10.559
Out in Haymarket.
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:11.199
Oh no, I did.
00:48:11.360 --> 00:48:12.880
I did one out in Ashburn and they had it.
00:48:12.960 --> 00:48:13.760
They might be under like the same.
00:48:14.239 --> 00:48:16.639
That right there was the best drink I ever had in my life, bro.
00:48:16.800 --> 00:48:17.599
I think I might have had that.
00:48:18.559 --> 00:48:20.880
I tried to go online and order some, but I couldn't find it.
00:48:20.960 --> 00:48:22.800
But I'm like, this here is delicious.
00:48:22.960 --> 00:48:24.480
I would drink that every day.
00:48:24.719 --> 00:48:28.159
So this is the This was the Colonel E.H.
00:48:28.639 --> 00:48:30.320
Taylor small batch.
00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:31.119
And Colonel E.H.
00:48:31.280 --> 00:48:33.760
Taylor was the one that got the bottle and bond regulations.
00:48:33.920 --> 00:48:35.039
So he's black?
00:48:35.199 --> 00:48:35.519
Nah.
00:48:35.920 --> 00:48:36.480
Nah.
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:37.599
Okay.
00:48:37.840 --> 00:48:39.199
Smells like bourbon.
00:48:41.039 --> 00:48:42.800
Let me do the TJ thing.
00:48:44.880 --> 00:48:46.239
My palate has evolved.
00:48:46.320 --> 00:48:47.440
I will say that.
00:48:48.159 --> 00:48:49.920
You ain't really fucking with that one.
00:48:51.119 --> 00:48:51.920
You don't really know.
00:48:52.000 --> 00:48:53.119
You ain't really fooling with that one.
00:48:53.920 --> 00:48:55.679
I gotta give it an honest try.
00:49:02.079 --> 00:49:02.400
Okay.
00:49:08.400 --> 00:49:09.840
The finish though.
00:49:10.239 --> 00:49:11.440
The finish is nicer.
00:49:11.760 --> 00:49:13.440
I'm saying it go down smoother.
00:49:13.599 --> 00:49:14.800
Yeah, the finish is nicer.
00:49:15.440 --> 00:49:16.880
It's less heartburn.
00:49:19.920 --> 00:49:20.960
It's less heartburn.
00:49:21.360 --> 00:49:23.599
I keep some hair on my chest on this one.
00:49:24.239 --> 00:49:25.280
It's good though.
00:49:25.840 --> 00:49:30.559
I feel like see see I'm like I'm like a uh I'm like a bitch drinker.
00:49:31.599 --> 00:49:33.039
Don't don't just say, mm-hmm.
00:49:33.280 --> 00:49:33.519
No.
00:49:36.719 --> 00:49:37.760
Don't just do that to me.
00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:39.760
I agree.
00:49:40.719 --> 00:49:42.000
I'm like a bitch drinker.
00:49:42.159 --> 00:49:42.639
You know what I'm saying?
00:49:42.800 --> 00:49:46.880
I I like to you know add little flavors to it, you know what I mean?
00:49:49.920 --> 00:49:51.360
Well I like cook with it, you know what I'm saying?
00:49:51.440 --> 00:49:55.679
Like some like like this one here will make some fire wings.
00:49:55.920 --> 00:49:56.719
Barbecue sauce.
00:49:56.880 --> 00:49:58.480
Since it's like cheap, right?
00:49:58.960 --> 00:50:02.559
But since the flavors are better on these, you can make it.
00:50:02.800 --> 00:50:07.679
But niggas don't like to use that expensive ass bourbon for like food.
00:50:07.840 --> 00:50:08.159
Alright.
00:50:08.320 --> 00:50:11.039
So we're trying this last one's the Eagle Rare 10 year.
00:50:11.199 --> 00:50:11.760
10 year.
00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:14.239
So this is one I've been holding on to this bottle.
00:50:14.400 --> 00:50:14.800
Oh, see.
00:50:15.119 --> 00:50:16.079
Yeah, I've been holding on to this bottle.
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:16.880
This is special.
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:18.000
I like this is my favorite.
00:50:18.159 --> 00:50:18.880
This is your favorite.
00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:19.280
Yeah.
00:50:19.519 --> 00:50:19.760
Okay.
00:50:23.280 --> 00:50:24.559
You know how they do in the movies.
00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:33.199
Delicious.
00:50:33.599 --> 00:50:34.159
Delicious.
00:50:37.199 --> 00:50:38.159
I see that.
00:50:38.960 --> 00:50:39.840
That right there.
00:50:40.320 --> 00:50:41.119
No burn.
00:50:41.920 --> 00:50:42.480
No burn.
00:50:42.639 --> 00:50:43.280
Smooth as hell.
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:44.960
Can't even taste the bourbon flavor.
00:50:46.000 --> 00:50:47.039
That right there was good.
00:50:47.199 --> 00:50:47.840
That's my favorite.
00:50:48.000 --> 00:50:48.719
And that right there?
00:50:48.960 --> 00:50:49.760
I can drink that.
00:50:49.840 --> 00:50:50.400
That's my favorite.
00:50:50.559 --> 00:50:51.039
I really did.
00:50:51.440 --> 00:50:54.400
And the crazy thing is, this bottle costs more than this bottle.
00:50:54.639 --> 00:50:55.679
This bottle costs more than this bottle.
00:50:55.840 --> 00:50:56.559
That right there?
00:50:56.960 --> 00:50:57.599
Yeah.
00:50:58.000 --> 00:51:02.639
So this is like, like I said, this is bottom, this is bottom shelf.
00:51:02.800 --> 00:51:04.000
It comes with a screw top.
00:51:04.079 --> 00:51:07.280
I just happen to have a this is my old Eagle Rare Cork that I put in here.
00:51:08.400 --> 00:51:08.559
Yeah.
00:51:08.719 --> 00:51:10.000
So this is like bottom tier.
00:51:10.079 --> 00:51:12.000
This is probably mid-tier, and this is one of the ones.
00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:13.840
This one's harder to find than both of these.
00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:14.880
See, this one, all right.
00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:16.719
This burns the most.
00:51:17.199 --> 00:51:17.679
Right?
00:51:18.000 --> 00:51:19.360
This gives you a good afterburn.
00:51:19.920 -->
00:51:24.320
This one burns a little bit, but this one here, no burn.
00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:26.159
Smooth going down.
00:51:27.679 --> 00:51:28.800
This one right here burnt.
00:51:29.039 --> 00:51:34.320
It was like, it's like, it's like it feels like it was mixed with something, but it wasn't.
00:51:34.480 --> 00:51:34.800
It's good.
00:51:34.960 --> 00:51:35.440
You know what I'm saying?
00:51:35.519 --> 00:51:37.440
You still get the bourbon taste, but it was just smooth.
00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:38.559
Alright, I got one more.
00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:39.760
We got one more today.
00:51:39.920 --> 00:51:40.639
Yeah, one more.
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:42.159
This is my infinity bottle.
00:51:42.320 --> 00:51:43.199
Infinity bottle.
00:51:43.360 --> 00:51:43.599
Yep.
00:51:43.679 --> 00:51:47.280
So this is when I get low on a bottle.
00:51:47.360 --> 00:51:50.400
Like I can't really make a drink with it or anything like that.
00:51:50.559 --> 00:51:51.519
It goes in here.
00:51:51.679 --> 00:51:57.440
So right now, this is Knob Creek, Uncle Nearest, and 1792 small batch.
00:51:57.519 --> 00:51:58.719
So three different bourbons.
00:51:58.880 --> 00:52:00.079
So um Uncle Nearest.
00:52:00.320 --> 00:52:01.679
There's three different bourbons in this.
00:52:01.760 --> 00:52:03.119
Like you combine bourbons?
00:52:03.199 --> 00:52:03.360
Yeah.
00:52:03.599 --> 00:52:05.199
So this is a bourbon jungle juice.
00:52:05.360 --> 00:52:06.239
This bourbon infinity.
00:52:06.320 --> 00:52:07.199
This is the infinity bottle.
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:08.000
So this is gonna get.
00:52:08.400 --> 00:52:10.000
So you call it the infinity bottle.
00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:10.400
Yeah, exactly.
00:52:10.559 --> 00:52:11.679
That's not the official name.
00:52:11.760 --> 00:52:13.280
This is what you name it in your house.
00:52:13.440 --> 00:52:14.480
No, this is this is the thing.
00:52:14.559 --> 00:52:16.079
This is what they call it in the bourbon world.
00:52:17.199 --> 00:52:20.400
You just combine, like, so you just this bourbon, this bourbon, this bourbon, you put it in this bottle.
00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:22.239
Okay.
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:22.719
Yep.
00:52:22.800 --> 00:52:24.639
But none of these are in there right now.
00:52:25.039 --> 00:52:26.880
So this is three completely different things.
00:52:27.039 --> 00:52:32.000
So in Uncle Neeris, he apparently taught Jack Daniels how to distill bourbon.
00:52:32.079 --> 00:52:33.039
So he's Jack Daniels.
00:52:33.199 --> 00:52:34.159
He was a black man.
00:52:34.400 --> 00:52:34.880
Uncle Daniel.
00:52:35.039 --> 00:52:35.519
Uncle Nearest.
00:52:35.599 --> 00:52:35.679
Yeah.
00:52:35.920 --> 00:52:36.400
Okay, okay, okay.
00:52:36.639 --> 00:52:40.480
So this is Uncle Neeris 1792 in Knob Creek.
00:52:40.800 --> 00:52:48.719
And this will be, when we record next week, it'll probably have, or next week, the week after, whenever we record again, it'll probably have more stuff in it.
00:52:49.199 --> 00:52:51.840
Okay, so this is so so this is bourbon jungle juice.
00:52:51.920 --> 00:52:52.960
This is bourbon jungle juice.
00:52:53.039 --> 00:52:54.320
This is bourbon jungle juice.
00:52:54.400 --> 00:52:56.239
Alright, don't try this at home, kids.
00:52:56.480 --> 00:52:57.280
Nah, try it.
00:52:57.519 --> 00:52:58.159
Live your life.
00:52:58.239 --> 00:52:58.639
Have fun.
00:52:59.280 --> 00:53:02.960
I don't think I've ever had bourbons just combined out of here.
00:53:03.760 --> 00:53:04.159
Alright.
00:53:04.239 --> 00:53:06.000
Luckily, luckily I Ubered here.
00:53:06.159 --> 00:53:07.360
Yeah, you be alright.
00:53:10.400 --> 00:53:11.679
This is this is insane.
00:53:12.159 --> 00:53:14.719
I just might feel like it's gonna hurt.
00:53:15.840 --> 00:53:16.880
It's different.
00:53:19.039 --> 00:53:20.000
Take your word for it.
00:53:20.320 --> 00:53:21.440
You've been drinking this on a daily.
00:53:22.159 --> 00:53:23.360
No, I don't drink this on a daily.
00:53:23.440 --> 00:53:25.519
This is I just learned about this the other day.
00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:26.559
Like people started doing it.
00:53:26.639 --> 00:53:29.599
I'll be watching little videos, and I was like, yeah, I'm gonna make me one too.
00:53:44.960 --> 00:53:46.639
That shouldn't be legal, bro.
00:53:47.039 --> 00:53:51.280
What is that?
00:53:51.599 --> 00:53:53.039
That's got a lot of flavors.
00:53:53.280 --> 00:53:55.280
There are a lot of flavors to it.
00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:57.119
I'll be watching the videos.
00:53:57.360 --> 00:53:59.039
That's a bourbon 10,000, man.
00:53:59.280 --> 00:54:00.639
I'll be watching the videos, man.
00:54:00.719 --> 00:54:02.000
And they be like, they'll sniff it.
00:54:02.079 --> 00:54:04.960
They'll be like, they'll be like, damn.
00:54:05.280 --> 00:54:06.639
Got some notes of caramel.
00:54:07.920 --> 00:54:08.800
That's a little licorice.
00:54:08.880 --> 00:54:10.639
I think it's a little licorice there.
00:54:11.280 --> 00:54:12.880
I think that's a little licorice.
00:54:13.440 --> 00:54:15.440
So I get none of that now.
00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:17.519
So maybe I'll maybe I will get there eventually.
00:54:17.599 --> 00:54:19.280
But you be smelling it?
00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:20.239
Yeah, I'll be smelling it.
00:54:20.320 --> 00:54:22.400
I'll be cuz I'll be like, I'll be trying to pick out the difference.
00:54:22.480 --> 00:54:23.760
They'll be like, I smell vanilla.
00:54:24.159 --> 00:54:25.440
Because the ingredients, nothing in this.
00:54:25.519 --> 00:54:25.840
Mm-mm.
00:54:25.920 --> 00:54:27.119
They'll be like, I smell vanilla.
00:54:27.199 --> 00:54:28.239
I smell caramel.
00:54:28.320 --> 00:54:30.159
I'll be like, it smells like bourbon.
00:54:30.480 --> 00:54:31.599
That's how I smell it.
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:32.880
It smells like bourbon to me.
00:54:32.960 --> 00:54:34.400
They all got the same smell.
00:54:35.199 --> 00:54:37.599
But all of these, all of these, like I can sip.
00:54:37.679 --> 00:54:39.519
Like I
don't have to mix any of these.
00:54:40.239 --> 00:54:44.159
You do the ice cube, which TJ now does the big circle ice cubes.
00:54:44.480 --> 00:54:44.559
Yeah.
00:54:44.800 --> 00:54:46.880
Or I can drink, like, I'll drink these neat though.
00:54:47.039 --> 00:54:48.079
Like no ice or nothing.
00:54:48.159 --> 00:54:49.440
Just sip it neat.
00:54:49.599 --> 00:54:50.639
And just watch TV.
00:54:50.800 --> 00:54:51.599
Just watch TV.
00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:53.280

00:54:54.400 --> 00:54:55.280
Before 90 days.
00:54:55.440 --> 00:54:56.239

00:54:56.639 --> 00:54:57.360

We back.
00:56:31.199 --> 00:56:32.960
You ain't even talking about your kid, man.
00:56:34.400 --> 00:56:35.760
We'll say that for next time.
00:56:36.000 --> 00:56:37.280
He's not here yet, but he's gonna be here.
00:56:37.360 --> 00:56:37.760
Next baby.
00:56:38.239 --> 00:56:38.800
He's gonna be here.
00:56:38.960 --> 00:56:39.519
Next month.
00:56:39.679 --> 00:56:41.679
It's uh cliffhanger.
00:56:41.920 --> 00:56:43.760
TJ is having a kid.
00:56:43.920 --> 00:56:44.719
I'm having a kid.
00:56:44.880 --> 00:56:46.000
And his name is Jamal.
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:47.519
His name's not Jamal.
00:56:48.079 --> 00:56:51.920
His name is uh Well, we'll we'll talk.
00:56:52.079 --> 00:56:57.119
But you know, he was gonna it's funny having a kid and knowing when that kid was conceived.
00:56:58.159 --> 00:57:00.480
Which is Jamal's birthday.
00:57:00.719 --> 00:57:03.280
So I say he should be called Jamal.
00:57:03.519 --> 00:57:05.119
Jamal's birthday.
00:57:05.360 --> 00:57:07.119
We went to the Bill Pickett rodeo.
00:57:07.360 --> 00:57:07.920
Yes, sir.
00:57:08.000 --> 00:57:09.519
We went to the Black Rodeo.
00:57:09.760 --> 00:57:13.119
We got home and TJ can see what I'm saying.
00:57:13.280 --> 00:57:14.320
He worked his magic.
00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:19.519
But the thing is, I think we're gonna go back to the rodeo this year with the kid.
00:57:19.679 --> 00:57:22.480
That was a big argument in my relationship, man.
00:57:22.719 --> 00:57:23.519
The rodeo?
00:57:23.679 --> 00:57:23.920
Yeah.
00:57:24.079 --> 00:57:24.400
Why?
00:57:24.559 --> 00:57:25.760
Because it was my birthday.
00:57:25.920 --> 00:57:26.159
Okay.
00:57:26.320 --> 00:57:27.920
And remember, I paid for everything.
00:57:28.159 --> 00:57:29.199
Oh, I didn't know that.
00:57:29.360 --> 00:57:30.000
I paid for the tickets.
00:57:30.239 --> 00:57:31.360
Remember when we went to go get something to eat?
00:57:31.519 --> 00:57:32.639
Yeah, remember when we were paying drinks?
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:34.559
I paid for the food and the drinks.
00:57:34.719 --> 00:57:38.559
Yeah, but I mean, she to be fair, she was like hanging out while we were like hanging out.
00:57:38.639 --> 00:57:39.199
You know what I'm saying?
00:57:39.280 --> 00:57:40.559
So like we went to do our thing.
00:57:40.719 --> 00:57:42.400
Yeah, but I here's the thing.
00:57:42.480 --> 00:57:45.039
I told her it was my uh she knows it's my birthday.
00:57:45.119 --> 00:57:46.719
I was like, this is my birthday, right?
00:57:46.880 --> 00:57:48.320
And she was like, what do you want to do?
00:57:48.480 --> 00:57:52.400
And I'm like, all right, we're gonna go to I sent her, like, hey, I'm going to Bill Pick and Rodale.
00:57:52.480 --> 00:57:55.440
So I'm like, all right, maybe she'll buy, at least buy her ticket, right?
00:57:55.599 --> 00:57:56.400
But she didn't do that.
00:57:56.559 --> 00:57:56.960
Oh boy.
00:57:57.119 --> 00:57:58.480
She I had to buy my own ticket.
00:57:58.639 --> 00:57:59.519
Wait, time out, time out.
00:57:59.599 --> 00:58:01.039
Is this gonna get you in trouble?
00:58:01.280 --> 00:58:02.239
No, no, no.
00:58:02.400 --> 00:58:02.880
Alright, cool.
00:58:02.960 --> 00:58:04.719
I was like, we'll we'll cut it down yourself.
00:58:05.039 --> 00:58:06.159
I can edit it out after.
00:58:06.320 --> 00:58:06.960
No, no, no.
00:58:07.039 --> 00:58:10.400
I bought my own ticket, and then she she she didn't buy any ticket.
00:58:10.480 --> 00:58:12.239
So I bought my ticket, I bought her ticket.
00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:12.639
Okay.
00:58:12.800 --> 00:58:12.960
Right?
00:58:13.039 --> 00:58:15.920
So then once I did that, I'm thinking, like, okay, she's gonna buy some meat.
00:58:16.079 --> 00:58:17.440
At least she'll buy some meat.
00:58:17.519 --> 00:58:23.039
But then we get there, and and I also you were late.
00:58:23.920 --> 00:58:24.880
No, I wasn't late.
00:58:25.039 --> 00:58:28.960
You weren't late, but you weren't there as early as you told me I was gonna leave.
00:58:29.280 --> 00:58:31.599
Because I had to wait for the the person to get dressed.
00:58:31.840 --> 00:58:32.559
We know who it is.
00:58:32.800 --> 00:58:36.000
She cycled, she cycled to a couple of few outfits, bro.
00:58:36.880 --> 00:58:40.079
Bro, that's that is the worst, bro.
00:58:40.400 --> 00:58:41.440
So that's the worst.
00:58:41.519 --> 00:58:43.039
And baby, I love you, but I'm gonna tell this.
00:58:43.280 --> 00:58:45.280
I'm gonna tell I'm gonna tell this story.
00:58:45.599 --> 00:58:49.840
When we went to that defenders game, remember we got there like second quarter.
00:58:50.239 --> 00:58:52.000
Yeah, I was in there by myself, kicked.
00:58:52.159 --> 00:58:54.960
I said I want to be there by kickoff, bro.
00:58:58.159 --> 00:59:01.039
It's like 40 minutes before kickoff.
00:59:01.760 --> 00:59:03.360
At the table chilling.
00:59:03.840 --> 00:59:05.920
Yo, uh, but uh start.
00:59:06.320 --> 00:59:08.400
But you can't do anything.
00:59:08.960 --> 00:59:10.159
You can't do anything.
00:59:10.400 --> 00:59:11.840
You just gotta pretend.
00:59:12.079 --> 00:59:18.639
But you don't pretend to be cool, and the
whole time I'm like, and then we wait on the train, and then the train is delayed.
00:59:18.800 --> 00:59:22.239
I'm like, wow, I would have been, I would have already been here.
00:59:23.039 --> 00:59:26.079
I would have already been here by now, bro.
00:59:28.079 --> 00:59:29.679
I would have already been here by now.
00:59:29.920 --> 00:59:32.400
You can't get mad, you gotta just pretend like it's not happening.
00:59:32.559 --> 00:59:42.639
But and and that's the thing, and I think even with relationships, it's like I love you, but if I'm going to a game, I would much rather hit you up and be like, Hey man, let's let's go to the game.
00:59:43.119 --> 00:59:48.880
But women, they want to be like, they want to be involved too, because what you want, you want them to like what you like.
00:59:49.039 --> 00:59:49.440
Yes.
00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:51.199
But but I also want to be on time.
00:59:51.360 --> 00:59:53.840
I also want you to get there when I would get there.
00:59:54.800 --> 00:59:57.199
I also want you to get there when I would get there.
00:59:57.280 --> 01:00:01.199
So when I did the don't tell special, we had an argument, bro.
01:00:01.920 --> 01:00:03.119
I had to be there, bro.
01:00:03.280 --> 01:00:07.119
I had to be this is this is a big moment for me recording in New York.
01:00:07.280 --> 01:00:07.840
It's huge.
01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:09.119

I'm in there and she's cycling through like six or seven outfits.
01:00:23.360 --> 01:00:24.639
Yo, just this ain't even about you.
01:00:24.960 --> 01:00:26.960
To be in the audience when niggas can't see you.
01:00:27.199 --> 01:00:27.840
It's not about you right now.
01:00:28.000 --> 01:00:28.559
You know what I'm saying?
01:00:28.639 --> 01:00:32.320
Like, I'm sitting there and I'm sitting there like, she like, do you think I've wear this jacket or with these boots?
01:00:32.480 --> 01:00:36.800
I'm like, in my head, and I said it, I'm like, whatever gets you to dress the fucking fastest.
01:00:37.039 --> 01:00:38.400
Okay, I gotta get there.
01:00:38.559 --> 01:00:38.719
Okay?
01:00:39.039 --> 01:00:40.000
I can't be late.
01:00:40.159 --> 01:00:40.880
You know what I'm saying?
01:00:41.199 --> 01:00:41.840
I can't be late.
01:00:41.920 --> 01:00:43.039
This is a big moment for me.
01:00:43.199 --> 01:00:43.440
Right.
01:00:43.599 --> 01:00:47.440
And she used to, she's like, ugh, I guess I'll put the jacket on.
01:00:47.679 --> 01:00:48.480
Put the fucking jacket on.
01:00:48.559 --> 01:00:49.039
Just let's go.
01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:50.079
Let's get the fuck out of the house.
01:00:50.159 --> 01:00:50.400
Let's go.
01:00:50.719 --> 01:00:51.360
I gotta get there.
01:00:51.519 --> 01:00:52.079
You know what I'm saying?
01:00:52.239 --> 01:00:55.199
I took you to this thing and you're you're fucking it up.
01:00:55.519 --> 01:01:05.840
I don't, and like I don't have anything like that now because I haven't been doing as much comedy since we've been together, but she's also gotten used to, so when I do go out and do stuff, it's like like not in a bad way.
01:01:06.000 --> 01:01:08.480
Not in a bad way, it was like she used to me being here.
01:01:08.880 --> 01:01:09.440
You know what I'm saying?
01:01:09.519 --> 01:01:10.880
But it's just like I gotta get out.
01:01:11.519 --> 01:01:12.239
Yeah, I gotta get out.
01:01:12.400 --> 01:01:17.199
But my last relationship, my last one before that, bro.
01:01:17.679 --> 01:01:21.440
There's so many times we would get into a fight before a show.
01:01:21.840 --> 01:01:26.320
Before a show, and I'm just like, I mean, like, into it, into it, bro.
01:01:26.400 --> 01:01:28.639
And then I just gotta go on stage and everything be cool.
01:01:28.800 --> 01:01:35.599
Yeah, you gotta, yeah, you just gotta I think about that a lot, because it's like, you don't know what that comic is going through.
01:01:35.679 --> 01:01:35.920
Yeah.
01:01:36.079 --> 01:01:43.599
They'll get on stage, they'll turn it, they whatever happened in their life, they turn it off and they'll make fun of whatever they do their jokes and have a good time, make fun of you, whatever.
01:01:43.679 --> 01:01:46.079
And they get back off the stage, and now life is still clean.
01:01:47.199 --> 01:01:47.920
You know what I mean?
01:01:48.800 --> 01:01:50.800
In theater, we call it clean feet.
01:01:50.960 --> 01:01:51.679
What you call it?
01:01:51.760 --> 01:01:53.119
You call it coming in with clean feet.
01:01:53.280 --> 01:01:58.320
It's like whatever's going on in your life outside of coming onto the stage don't matter.
01:01:58.559 --> 01:02:00.559
You come onto the stage, you come on with clean feet.
01:02:00.639 --> 01:02:01.840
Yeah, that's what we call it.
01:02:02.000 --> 01:02:04.000
But like by the last, there was so much that.
01:02:04.079 --> 01:02:07.679
I mean, we going in on each other before a show.
01:02:07.920 --> 01:02:10.320
And it's just like I gotta go on stake, hey y'all do it.
01:02:10.400 --> 01:02:13.679
Yeah, no matter what happened, you're like, Chuck it-chuck.
01:02:14.000 --> 01:02:18.159
That's how we had when we got back together, I had to have a conversation.
01:02:18.320 --> 01:02:20.400
I'm like, it's my moment, right?
01:02:20.719 --> 01:02:25.199
Like, like when I did the live Taskmaster at the Warden Theater, right?
01:02:25.360 --> 01:02:29.119
That's when she really got mad at me for bringing the shirt that she bought me.
01:02:29.280 --> 01:02:31.119
She bought a shirt with her face on it.
01:02:31.679 --> 01:02:32.480
She wanted you to wear it.
01:02:32.639 --> 01:02:33.440
No, no, okay.
01:02:33.599 -->
01:02:34.000
No, no.
01:02:34.079 --> 01:02:36.000
She was she was mad because I wore it.
01:02:36.159 --> 01:02:39.360
But they asked me, Taskmaster, they do like these live games.
01:02:39.440 --> 01:02:39.760
Yeah.
01:02:39.920 --> 01:02:44.559
They asked me the thing, they asked me to bring in a crazy clothing item.
01:02:44.719 --> 01:02:46.800
And I'm like, that's a crazy clothing item.
01:02:46.960 --> 01:02:47.360
Yeah.
01:02:47.679 --> 01:02:50.159
Her, it has her name on it.
01:02:50.400 --> 01:02:51.360
Keep talking.
01:02:51.599 --> 01:02:56.880
It has her name on it, and like four or five pictures of her on it.
01:02:57.119 --> 01:02:57.760
Right?
01:02:58.239 --> 01:03:00.639
So when I got there, I brung it.
01:03:00.880 --> 01:03:06.719
It won me the game, it won me in a challenge, and the audience members was on her side.
01:03:06.800 --> 01:03:09.039
They were just like chanting her name.
01:03:09.280 --> 01:03:15.199
But when I brought this to her, I was like, hey, they asked me to bring a clothing item that was crazy.
01:03:15.360 --> 01:03:16.880
Guess what shirt I brung?
01:03:17.840 --> 01:03:18.079
Right?
01:03:18.159 --> 01:03:19.920
I was like, guess what shirt I brung?
01:03:20.880 --> 01:03:25.119
And then she got mad that I brung that shirt.
01:03:25.920 --> 01:03:29.679
Because she was like, this shirt has my face on it, and you're making fun of me.
01:03:29.760 --> 01:03:32.239
And I'm like, no, you they loved you.
01:03:32.480 --> 01:03:33.440
They were part, you were part of it.
01:03:33.519 --> 01:03:34.400
I mean, you were a part of it.
01:03:34.480 --> 01:03:35.599
They loved you, right?
01:03:35.679 --> 01:03:36.880
They were screaming your name.
01:03:36.960 --> 01:03:41.440
Every time I went on a stage to play a little game or whatever, they were like, go Ashley, do it for Ashley.
01:03:41.599 --> 01:03:42.400
That's what they were doing.
01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:42.719
Right.
01:03:42.880 --> 01:03:43.119
Right?
01:03:43.199 --> 01:03:44.239
But she couldn't take that.
01:03:44.960 --> 01:03:51.199
So then she thought I was like texting someone else or you know, cheating, or anything like that.
01:03:51.360 --> 01:03:54.079
And then she was, and then I then I was like trying to diffuse the situation.
01:03:54.159 --> 01:03:57.519
I showed her my green room, or I had like a big room with just me in there.
01:03:57.599 --> 01:03:59.760
And she was like, Fuck you, a green room.
01:04:00.000 --> 01:04:01.039
Who are you talking to?
01:04:01.119 --> 01:04:02.320
She started talking to my ex.
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:04.079
I'm like, no, I'm talking to you.
01:04:04.159 --> 01:04:06.719
I'm I'm talking to you, I'm sharing this moment with you.
01:04:06.880 --> 01:04:21.679
But anyway, when we came back together, I was telling her, I was like, listen, when I'm having a moment in my career and I'm sharing it with you, and you're mad for some strange reason, you save that shit for tomorrow.
01:04:21.840 --> 01:04:22.239
Yeah.
01:04:22.480 --> 01:04:25.599
You don't, you don't shit on my day.
01:04:25.920 --> 01:04:29.920
You like if I made you mad for some reason, you save it for tomorrow.
01:04:30.079 --> 01:04:33.199
You congratulate me for today, and then save it for tomorrow.
01:04:33.599 --> 01:04:38.719
Because the thing is, like, it took it took so long to get to these fucking moments.
01:04:39.039 --> 01:04:40.239
To these moments, bro.
01:04:40.559 --> 01:04:53.519
It takes, like, they don't like everyone, like, and this is so cliche, and everyone sees like the good shit that happens, but no one sees the 12 people in a room that still has the football game playing in the background.
01:04:53.679 --> 01:04:55.440
I'm like, I'm doing some shit now.
01:04:56.159 --> 01:04:57.039
Some shit now.
01:04:57.199 --> 01:05:00.320
I did a show at a barn with a cow behind me.
01:05:00.480 --> 01:05:01.280
We've done everything.
01:05:01.599 --> 01:05:02.960
And you know what I mean?
01:05:03.119 --> 01:05:05.519
Like, I'm doing this, and I'm on Warner Theater.
01:05:05.679 --> 01:05:10.000
I'm trying to share this with you, and you're telling me I'm texting my ex when I'm texting you.
01:05:10.239 --> 01:05:13.119
And we can, we'll, we can, uh, we're we're running a little long.
01:05:13.199 --> 01:05:13.599
Oh, okay.
01:05:13.679 --> 01:05:14.719
We'll no, no, you're good.
01:05:14.800 --> 01:05:19.280
We'll talk about that next episode too, because it's just like our boy is on funny as fuck right now.
01:05:19.360 --> 01:05:19.519
Yes.
01:05:19.679 --> 01:05:20.400
You know what I'm saying?
01:05:20.480 --> 01:05:22.880
And like, people don't know.
01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:26.719
DC people know a version of me.
01:05:27.039 --> 01:05:28.800
DC comics know a version of me.
01:05:28.960 --> 01:05:32.000
They don't know the shit I did before I got here.
01:05:32.159 --> 01:05:36.880
And like, me and me and our boy, we we've been on some bullshit shows together.
01:05:38.159 --> 01:05:39.599
We we came up together.
01:05:39.840 --> 01:05:42.400
Me and him did a psych work together.
01:05:42.719 --> 01:05:46.480
We bro, I did a deaf show with him, a virtual death show.
01:05:46.800 --> 01:05:51.679
In order for them to laugh, they had to like send like emojis up, bro.
01:05:52.159 --> 01:05:57.440
I I I took I took my lunch break at my regular job at 10 o'clock to do this show.
01:05:58.000 --> 01:06:05.840
Like, we've been through that, but before we even Did that like we did shows together in Charlottesville and like Richmond and stuff, and it's just like people don't know that aspect of us.
01:06:05.920 --> 01:06:10.159
So, like, I was busting his balls in a group, and I can feel people being nervous.
01:06:11.360 --> 01:06:12.159
He's being mean.
01:06:13.039 --> 01:06:16.719
I can feel people being nervous, but I'm like, y'all don't you don't even fucking know.
01:06:17.119 --> 01:06:24.320
Yo, meaning, you know, humble TJ who who sucked it up on this DC comedy scene, which I shouldn't have did that shit.
01:06:24.639 --> 01:06:25.199
Look at the camera.
01:06:25.280 --> 01:06:26.239
I shouldn't have done that shit.
01:06:26.320 --> 01:06:28.000
I'm better than all y'all motherfuckers.
01:06:28.239 --> 01:06:28.480
Okay.
01:06:28.960 --> 01:06:29.119
Whoa.
01:06:29.280 --> 01:06:30.000
Now that's about it.
01:06:30.239 --> 01:06:31.119
Just new TJ.
01:06:31.920 --> 01:06:34.239
Because remember, I was trying to get TJ to be controversial.
01:06:34.400 --> 01:06:35.519
Now he's trying to be controversial.
01:06:35.840 --> 01:06:36.159
No, bro.
01:06:36.239 --> 01:06:40.719
Like, it's just like I I humbled myself and I didn't need to humble myself.
01:06:40.800 --> 01:06:45.920
My mom would always be like, don't get too humble, because if you get too humble, people overlook you.
01:06:46.079 --> 01:06:46.480
Yes, sir.
01:06:46.639 --> 01:06:47.280
People overlook you.
01:06:47.360 --> 01:06:48.320
So Mama's right.
01:06:48.639 --> 01:06:50.639
Yeah, and I and I and I honestly have.
01:06:50.719 --> 01:06:59.119
And I'm not saying I'm anybody, but I'm also saying even being back, I'm working new shit, doing just as well as you doing with your fucking closers.
01:06:59.360 --> 01:07:00.880
So don't see this.
01:07:01.119 --> 01:07:01.920
Listen, TJ.
01:07:02.400 --> 01:07:03.519
TJ had one kid.
01:07:03.599 --> 01:07:04.480
And now look at him.
01:07:04.719 --> 01:07:05.760
We'll talk about the kid next time.
01:07:05.840 --> 01:07:07.280
But you talked about the Ashley shirt.
01:07:07.360 --> 01:07:07.920
I got these.
01:07:08.480 --> 01:07:09.119
Oh, my bad.
01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:09.519
My bad.
01:07:09.679 --> 01:07:11.119
No, you got these.
01:07:11.840 --> 01:07:13.280
I got these Tamara.
01:07:13.519 --> 01:07:14.639
Tamario's socks.
01:07:18.960 --> 01:07:21.840
I got the Tamaria socks right here.
01:07:23.280 --> 01:07:24.239
She gave this.
01:07:24.559 --> 01:07:28.480
This was her gad gift at her first her first Christmas together.
01:07:28.960 --> 01:07:31.119
How long we got dated before you get these socks?
01:07:31.360 --> 01:07:33.679
So I think we started dating in July.
01:07:33.840 --> 01:07:34.239
Mm-hmm.
01:07:34.400 --> 01:07:37.760
So we we met in June and we became official in July.
01:07:38.000 --> 01:07:39.039
So like six months.
01:07:39.199 --> 01:07:39.599
Six months.
01:07:39.840 --> 01:07:40.960
Six months you got these socks.
01:07:41.360 --> 01:07:43.679
And I she her her present was a gift to Puerto Rico.
01:07:44.000 --> 01:07:45.199
It was three months before I got the shirt.
01:07:45.679 --> 01:07:46.960
Three months before I got the shirt.
01:07:47.039 --> 01:07:47.920
And that's insane, bro.
01:07:48.079 --> 01:07:48.559
So I got these.
01:07:48.639 --> 01:07:50.960
But then she also got also got me WrestleMania tickets.
01:07:51.199 --> 01:07:52.639
See, I never got this, bro.
01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:55.360
But you y'all, y'all, you it's still new.
01:07:55.519 --> 01:07:57.920
But I got on a trip to Puerto Rico.
01:07:58.079 --> 01:08:05.920
But I think that it was part of it was like, you know, after my last relationship, everything with us has been pretty easy.
01:08:06.559 --> 01:08:08.480
Like, you know, we we mesh pretty well.
01:08:08.559 --> 01:08:11.840
I think we got the same, we have some of the same interests, you know what I'm saying?
01:08:11.920 --> 01:08:16.159
So it's just been like, but when you've been in toxic shit before that, sometimes you don't know how to deal with it.
