| Donnell. | ||
| What's going on, bro? | ||
| Good to see you, my friend. | ||
| Take me to the river, I wanna go. | ||
| I'll go. | ||
| Take me to your river, I wanna go. | ||
| I don't even know who sings that. | ||
| You don't know who sings that song? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| Leon Bridges. | ||
| Leon Bridges. | ||
| Yeah, he's like a folk country singer, black dude. | ||
| I think he's Louisiana, where he's from. | ||
| But about five years ago, he had a very popular song. | ||
| That was like a song that really charted well. | ||
| It was called The River. | ||
| That was that. | ||
| That was that song. | ||
| There he is. | ||
| And then what he does is- You where, Jamie? | ||
| You know what I do? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I've seen him before, yeah. | |
| I don't know that I know the song. | ||
| But this song is like, he's had other songs, but for some reason this song resonated with a lot of people in the country, man. | ||
| It was like him reminiscing with going to a place that made him feel good in the river. | ||
| I hope when we go over to Spotify we can play it. | ||
| I go, take me to your river. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I wanna go. | |
| I'll go. | ||
| That's pretty much it. | ||
| That's the one part everybody knows. | ||
| It's acceptable now for people to wear like neck scarves. | ||
| Are you being insulting? | ||
| No. | ||
| Not at all. | ||
| It's normal. | ||
| If you had wore that on any other time, I'd be like, what is on your neck? | ||
| And I would explain it to be a gaiter. | ||
| Right. | ||
| A gator. | ||
| I know what it is. | ||
| I know what a gator is. | ||
| I hunt. | ||
| This is what it is. | ||
| It's my gator. | ||
| You wear them when you're sneaking up on animals. | ||
| Or people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Or people. | |
| Well, that color, you can't sneak up on anybody. | ||
| Gay pride. | ||
| Gay pride. | ||
| Well, there's a lot of colors in that. | ||
| Yeah, I guess that's a rainbow. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not a traditional rainbow. | ||
| This is a liberal gator. | ||
| Liberal gator? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| It's accepted by anything. | ||
| Gay people, black people, Hispanic people. | ||
| I'm sorry. | ||
| No worries. | ||
| My baby mother asking me about weed. | ||
| Jesus. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fuck. | |
| I thought you don't like me. | ||
| I thought you don't like me. | ||
| Why you keep blowing me up about weed? | ||
| You said you don't like me. | ||
| She likes your weed. | ||
| I mean, they like something, man. | ||
| What happened to your thumb? | ||
| I got shot. | ||
| Who shot you? | ||
| That's a question I haven't found an answer to. | ||
| Really? | ||
| This shit happened so quick, Joe. | ||
| I didn't really get a good look at the person that shot me. | ||
| Not too many people around have witnessed it. | ||
| But I have the wound to show that I got shot. | ||
| What was the situation? | ||
| My dog. | ||
| I got a new dog. | ||
| She's adorable. | ||
| Listen. | ||
| That's as adorable as a dog gets, ladies and gentlemen. | ||
| Look at that little cutie. | ||
| Can you see her on camera? | ||
| Yo, this is my emotional support dog. | ||
| That's Maggie? | ||
| Yeah, that's Maggie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Maggie. | |
| Come here, sweetie. | ||
| Come here, Maggie. | ||
| Come here, honey. | ||
| She doesn't know what coffee is. | ||
| She don't know what weed is, but she don't know what coffee is. | ||
| But I was protecting her. | ||
| Some people were trying. | ||
| Joe, you want to hear the story about how I got shot or what? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| I was protecting her honor, right? | ||
| I was protecting her from a hell of bullets. | ||
| It was a gang. | ||
| It was a lot of people. | ||
| I don't remember all of that, but I got shot at my motherfucking thumb. | ||
| Where were you? | ||
| In the streets. | ||
| Oh, just regular? | ||
| Yeah, I was in the streets. | ||
| No, not just the streets. | ||
| I was just in the streets. | ||
| No town. | ||
| No, just the streets. | ||
| And that happens sometimes, Joe. | ||
| You put yourself hanging in the streets. | ||
| You put yourself in some unforgiving situations. | ||
| And that's what happened to me. | ||
| And that's how I got my motherfucking thumb shot the fuck off. | ||
| And that's the story I'm talking. | ||
| That's the story that I'm sticking to. | ||
| So you got caught in the crossfire. | ||
| A hail of bullets. | ||
| Jesus Christ. | ||
| 45 shots rang out. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Legitimately? | ||
| And this is the only injury I sustained. | ||
| I'm very, very happy that that's the only injury you sustained. | ||
| You're not happy about it, Joe, because when I... I love you. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| I know you love me, but when I told you I got shot, you continued to question me about... | ||
| Well, Donnell, that's because you're Donnell. | ||
| Right, but you continue to... | ||
| I didn't question you like I didn't believe you. | ||
| You did, 100%. | ||
| But you said it so casually. | ||
| That's what you... | ||
| I said, do you want a drink? | ||
| You said, I can't. | ||
| I'm on antibiotics. | ||
| I said, what happened? | ||
| He went, I got shot! | ||
| Usually, any of my other friends who've been shot, if I said, hey man, what happened? | ||
| And they said, I got shot! | ||
| It wouldn't just end right there. | ||
| They would say, it's the craziest story ever, man. | ||
| I was on my way to the car, and I had my little dog. | ||
| I was protecting her. | ||
| And that's the story that I told, but the thing that you didn't believe me... | ||
| If someone said he got shot... | ||
|
unidentified
|
I didn't believe you. | |
| You can't say I didn't believe you. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| The look of your face is like... | ||
| Well, it's unusual the way you were describing it. | ||
| I got shot. | ||
| And then you wouldn't say anything more. | ||
| Black people don't... | ||
| What happened? | ||
| How'd you get shot? | ||
| Well, remember I had a disagreement with so-and-so? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Well, we finally had an opportunity. | ||
| Our paths crossed. | ||
| We finally had a situation where those energies came together. | ||
| We was like, how are we going to settle this, right? | ||
| It wasn't like that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I understand. | |
| It wasn't like that. | ||
| Okay, so you don't want to get specific about details. | ||
| No, I don't want to get specific. | ||
| I just want you to respect the fact that I got shot. | ||
| I believe that you got shot. | ||
| I do respect it. | ||
| I'm sad that you got shot, but I'm glad you're okay. | ||
| I'm better. | ||
| I'm good. | ||
| So, how is your thumb doing? | ||
| Is it going to be all right? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| It's going to be good. | ||
| You know, we got all the bullet fragments out of it. | ||
| You know, we avoided the surgery, so I'm going to be good. | ||
| Just got to get the range of motion back. | ||
| Oh, that's real good. | ||
| They didn't have to do any surgery in tendons or anything like that? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| I got lucky. | ||
| I have a friend who cut his finger on a window, man, and he never got his fingers back again. | ||
| His fingers are like this, curled. | ||
| I know. | ||
| Everybody knows a motherfucker like that, and we've all made fun of that motherfucker. | ||
| Mm. | ||
| We've made fun of the person that you know that don't have a thumb, but I'm telling you, doing this after me surviving this gunshot shit, just butting in my pants become a task that I took for granted. | ||
| The point I'm making is that you're lucky to have all of your limbs, all of your shit on your body. | ||
| Yep, it's true. | ||
| And you don't appreciate it till one of them motherfuckers gone. | ||
| Well, I think that's the case with everything, right? | ||
| Like, we didn't appreciate how good we had it before the lockdown, before COVID came around. | ||
| Nobody appreciated how good we really had it. | ||
| We was living in a moment. | ||
| We were also spoiled. | ||
| We were spoiled by how good everything was. | ||
| But we didn't think it was spoiled because that was what was going on until shit shifted. | ||
| And then same thing, like, you lose your thumb. | ||
| You're like, oh, shit. | ||
| You know, I really do appreciate doing those three spots that night. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| I appreciate the fact that I could just walk with my family anywhere and I wouldn't be judged. | ||
| I wouldn't be discriminated against or whatever. | ||
| It'd just be like, there goes Joe and his family, not just like, do you have a mask or not? | ||
| But I do believe that it took a pandemic for people to really realize what the most important things in life are. | ||
| I think so for sure. | ||
| I think at the beginning people were nicer because they were scared and they were like, it was almost like post 9-11 feeling. | ||
| Like we're all in this together. | ||
| That didn't last very long. | ||
| It was unrealistic to think that everybody's gonna be that way. | ||
| People don't get frustrated. | ||
| Once also resources started getting low and people started realizing that they're not gonna be able to work for a long fucking time. | ||
| Did you see the governor got busted? | ||
| Did you see the photos? | ||
| Which governor? | ||
| Governor of California. | ||
| He got busted for what? | ||
| Got busted going to a restaurant with 12 people. | ||
| No social distancing. | ||
| No masks. | ||
| All the shit that he's been preaching for, he didn't do. | ||
| They were saying that he was outdoors. | ||
| His people said it was outdoors. | ||
| But now they have photos of it. | ||
| 100% indoors. | ||
| They're all indoors. | ||
| Talking, sitting. | ||
| The unrealistic part about that, you know people gotta... | ||
| Push their platform. | ||
| This mad shit has been crazy. | ||
| But me, I know it shouldn't be like this, and I know it's like, but what does it represent? | ||
| When I see motherfuckers Like that, in a situation that no mask, not social distancing, I just assume that they've all been tested and they've all been in a bubble situation. | ||
| Well, that's because you've been in a bunch of bubble situations. | ||
| Like when Dave did the shows down in Yellow Springs. | ||
| Like you, you bubbled me first. | ||
| I bubble you here. | ||
| You're the first person. | ||
| You're the first person. | ||
| You didn't rape my nose. | ||
| You rape my finger. | ||
| I didn't do it. | ||
| Yes, you did. | ||
| You hired a nurse. | ||
| You made somebody do it. | ||
| You can call it whatever the fuck you want to do, but she worked for you. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| And you forced that, that she had to do it. | ||
| Well, I just suggested it'd probably be a good idea for everybody. | ||
| Yeah, but it was good for everybody, and you knew that, so we know that's a bubble world. | ||
| But it's not surprising that you see the governor in a situation like that, because I'm pretty sure, it doesn't send out the right message, but I'm pretty sure that the motherfuckers was tested. | ||
| Well, that's what he should have said. | ||
| They can't say that because they're a politician, and everybody would go, wait a minute, if I just test people, can I go to work? | ||
| Like what Dave's doing with all his shows. | ||
| Test people in the audience and you can have a full audience. | ||
| You know you have a bunch of people that are healthy. | ||
| You're taking the measures to create that safety. | ||
| It's a bubble. | ||
| Here's the thing that a lot of people understand is that Like, you could literally create your own bubble. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Like, I know people, like, well, in certain states, you have to meet a certain requirement to be tested. | ||
| You can't be tested unless you start showing symptoms. | ||
| But you could create your bubble. | ||
| There's testing almost everywhere. | ||
| There's an opportunity for people to get tested. | ||
| It's a little harder than that for most people because... | ||
| But most people mean state for state. | ||
| Most people, in terms of, like, just people's, just your access to it. | ||
| It's not that common where you can go to a place and get a quick test yet. | ||
| Okay, so then what's the difference? | ||
| And I may be wrong. | ||
| This may be my ignorance. | ||
| Like, California, like, I know the situation, like, at Dodger Stadium. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Like, for the most part, anybody with, I guess, a California idea, whatever, they can get tested. | ||
| You know, but hold on. | ||
| You know that takes hours. | ||
| You know, those people have to wait in line for hours. | ||
| There was a line. | ||
| To get it done. | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| But what does that matter? | ||
| If you have a job, man. | ||
| If you have a job and you're supposed to be at work at 9 a.m. | ||
| and you get to the COVID thing at 7.30 and they tell you it's a two and a half hour line, that's what it is. | ||
| That's the reality. | ||
| And most of those aren't giving you the results immediately. | ||
| Not immediately, but enough where you could... | ||
| If you got those results in 18 hours... | ||
| Say you were going to plan a family function or something. | ||
| You don't do shit for 18 hours. | ||
| What I'm saying is when the bubble, the idea of the bubble first started, it started with the NBA. You kind of contributed to that. | ||
| Dave did it. | ||
| Well, UFC did it first. | ||
| We did it and UFC did it first. | ||
| But they always thought like, oh my god! | ||
| You don't have to be a millionaire to create a safe bubble for you and your family, your friends, right? | ||
| No, you can do it now easier than ever before. | ||
| But the problem with the governor saying it is other people will let us make a bubble and go to work because that's what they should do. | ||
| What they could do is what we're doing here. | ||
| We're just lucky that podcasting is an essential business. | ||
| I think she's trying to jump down. | ||
| She's not trying to kill herself. | ||
| No, I mean, she's just looking over the edge. | ||
| No, she's my emotional dog. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| If anybody's gonna jump, it's gonna be me. | ||
| I'm in tune with her. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| She's the most adorable little dog I've ever seen. | ||
| I've never seen a little dog as a puppy. | ||
| Maggie Rivers, she's five months old. | ||
| She knows her biological dad, and I'm her new dad. | ||
| It was important for her to know her biological dad because I didn't want her to come from a place with mental issues and shit. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| She's in two with her mother. | ||
| She knows her two brothers and sisters. | ||
| They have play dates. | ||
| She's a little cutie. | ||
| But she knows she's my little bitch right now. | ||
| What kind of dog is she? | ||
| A Chihuahua Pitbull. | ||
| No. | ||
| She's part of Pitbull? | ||
| That dog don't look like he's part of Pitbull. | ||
| What kind of pitbull fucked a chihuahua? | ||
| A toy pitbull. | ||
| Oh, really? | ||
| She's toy chihuahua. | ||
| Those toy pitbulls are cute little dogs. | ||
| Yeah, she's ferocious. | ||
| Don't let that fucking sad eyes fool you. | ||
| Have you ever seen a toy pitbull, Jamie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't think so. | |
| They're really tiny. | ||
| We know real pitbulls, like the fighting pitbulls, they were like 30 pounds. | ||
| They weren't big dogs. | ||
| The ones that they bred for fighting. | ||
| The smaller ones are the little demons. | ||
| I don't even know if I can remember ever seeing a small pitbull. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Brian Callen used to have a small pit bull. | ||
| It was a tiny one and it was ferocious. | ||
| That's where he gets his personality from. | ||
| It's not him. | ||
| No, he bought it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
It's animals. | |
| We went to a guy who raised them for fighting. | ||
| Oh, shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| We were like in our 20s. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Those are mostly puppies, but... | |
| Oh my god, look how tiny. | ||
| Damn, that little motherfucker looked tough as shit. | ||
| The black one. | ||
| The Black Lives Matter one, son. | ||
| Look at his face. | ||
| Oh my god, that's ridiculous. | ||
| That dog's ridiculous. | ||
| See, that's the thing that they do. | ||
| They take these dogs. | ||
| But they break their legs and shit like that, right? | ||
| Well, no. | ||
| They just breed them. | ||
| They do what's called, they select, right? | ||
| So like a dog with shorter legs, they'll breed with another dog with shorter legs, and they'll try to select for certain traits. | ||
| Like I used to have a dog that was from Hawaii, and they used him for hog hunting. | ||
| That's what they use his family for. | ||
| So he had long ears. | ||
| It was a dog specific? | ||
| To Hawaii? | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah? | |
| Yeah. | ||
| They breed a lot of pit bulls in Hawaii for hog hunting. | ||
| And what are their jobs? | ||
| Because most dogs, do they go get birds? | ||
| What the fuck does it do? | ||
| Hog hunting. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| See, what they do is, in the real thick brush, you can't really get to the hogs. | ||
| Like, it's hard to shoot them even with a gun. | ||
| Like, you're shooting through hundreds of yards of brush, but the dogs can go in there and get them, and they'll hold them. | ||
| They'll hold the pig. | ||
| So there's a style of pig hunting. | ||
| That makes the hunting easy, though, right? | ||
| It does, except for the dog. | ||
| It's not like the same kind of hunting, because you're relying 100% on the dogs. | ||
| Usually there's two groups of dogs, depending on what animal you do. | ||
| Like if they hunt mountain lions, they'll use a certain kind of dog that'll obey the dog, that'll obey the mountain lion. | ||
| But if they hunt pigs, a lot of times they'll use an animal that lets you know where the pig is, and then they release other animals that hold the pig. | ||
| So those are the pit bulls. | ||
| And then you shoot them. | ||
| Well, they usually stab them. | ||
| Hand, like, up? | ||
| Yeah, it's kind of fucked. | ||
| Oh, so that experience is all about the dog? | ||
| It's the dog is the one who did it and you just finished the job. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Damn. | |
| It's crazy, too. | ||
| There's, excuse me, there's videos of it, of the way they do it, and it's like, woof. | ||
| And I've been asked to go on one of those hunts. | ||
| I'm like, I am not interested in doing that. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| What happens when the dog gets old? | ||
| Do they like? | ||
| To get new dogs. | ||
| But this is a thing that people are doing for two reasons. | ||
| One, for food, right? | ||
| Because this is the best way that they can get food. | ||
| Like you can trap this animal and then that's how you're going to get the animal. | ||
| If you just rely on just hunting with like a rifle or a bow and arrow and real thick shit with wild pigs, you're probably going to go hungry. | ||
| So there's that. | ||
| And then the other thing is, these are invasive animals. | ||
| Like, they were brought over to Hawaii. | ||
| And they're wild and they have no predators. | ||
| So they have to kill them. | ||
| They have to control their population. | ||
| So did they bring them over here to kill a species or something? | ||
| Like, I know that... | ||
| No, no, they brought them over for food. | ||
| Oh, okay. | ||
| Like, Captain Cook and those dudes used to do that shit. | ||
| They used to release goats on islands. | ||
| I don't know Captain Cook. | ||
| I know Captain Crunch. | ||
| I know Captain Crunch as well. | ||
| Yeah, I don't know Captain Crunch. | ||
| Delicious stuff. | ||
| Captain Hook was an old pirate, right? | ||
| Wasn't he? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Cook. | |
| Cook. | ||
| Did it say Hook? | ||
| Hook was a pirate too. | ||
| He was a Disney pirate. | ||
| Captain Cook, he used to go to islands and they would drop off animals. | ||
| So that the next time they came around, they'd have something to eat. | ||
| That's smart. | ||
| Yeah, so they'd leave goats on an island. | ||
| I think that's how the goats got on Galapagos. | ||
| I think that's how they got on a lot of islands. | ||
| These pirates or sailors would drop these animals off. | ||
| But meanwhile, these animals would destroy ecosystems. | ||
| Yeah, but you had some fresh goat when you came back. | ||
| Yeah, some fresh goat. | ||
| Yeah, fuck the rivers and shit. | ||
| They had a lot of turtles, too. | ||
| They killed off a lot of sea turtles, because they would take sea turtles, and they would flip them over and put them on their back, and they'd be good for weeks. | ||
| And they would eat them? | ||
| Yep, they would eat them, because they don't need anything. | ||
| They can survive just on their back for weeks and weeks and weeks, and you don't have to worry about refrigeration. | ||
| Yeah, but you can't tell somebody you're hunting turtles. | ||
| You're not trying to do it for sport. | ||
| They slow as a motherfucker. | ||
| If you're like, I fucking stalked this fucking turtle for three days. | ||
| I think they'd probably get them on the beach, but if you got them in the water, they'd be quick. | ||
| Sea turtles? | ||
| When I was growing up, we'd catch a motherfucking turtle on the road, and it was always one country motherfucker. | ||
| He usually was a mechanic in the neighborhood, and he had oil up under his hand. | ||
| He always helped people's baby mothers with fucking changing their brake pads and shit. | ||
| Just one of those grimy, dirty motherfuckers that eat any type of roadkill. | ||
| And whenever we saw fucking a dead turtle or something, we knew that nigga was gonna be yelling out, turtle soup! | ||
| Yeah, people like turtle soup. | ||
| Yeah, I'm not a big fan of it, but... | ||
| I've never had it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It seems like it would probably be an alligator, meaty type of family. | ||
| Alligator tastes good. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Everything tastes good when it tastes like chicken. | ||
| That's the reference for anything it tastes like chicken. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I have frog legs recently. | ||
| They were good. | ||
| I've had frog legs before, but trying to convince a black person to eat frog legs is a tough sell. | ||
| To get a black person to order frog legs off of a menu is like getting them to say, I want my steak rare. | ||
| It's always got to be well done. | ||
| You eat well done? | ||
| No, that's what I'm saying. | ||
| I don't. | ||
| But how do you eat your steak? | ||
| Medium. | ||
| Medium? | ||
| Yep. | ||
| Not medium rare? | ||
| There's a lot of black people that watch this show. | ||
| They're going to be like, I'm going to tell you when he changed. | ||
| When they start talking about blood. | ||
| Medium rare. | ||
| Yeah, when they started talking about blood, that's when he lost the streets. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Shit. | |
| I could do medium, medium rare. | ||
| I can't do it. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| I've had it like that, but my preference would be medium. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But the average circle that I grew up around... | ||
| My jiu-jitsu instructor eats it well done. | ||
| And when he orders it, I cringe like, John Jock Machado. | ||
| Well done. | ||
| I go, oof. | ||
| Do you know what that feeling is? | ||
| Imagine a chef that gets the order and says... | ||
| Two well-done steaks at Table 49. They're calling them every fucking racial thing that they can think of. | ||
| That's the quickest way to fucking make somebody order a fucking well-done steak. | ||
| Chefs did not enjoy it. | ||
| Not at all. | ||
| They did not like cooking it like that. | ||
| That's a weird thing, like a preference thing. | ||
| If you ask people's preference, it's not like you just cook it. | ||
| If you order chicken, they just cook your chicken. | ||
| They don't ask you what temperature you'd like your chicken breast. | ||
| But they know. | ||
| They just cook it. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But even pork chops, same thing, right? | ||
| They don't ask you. | ||
| But with steak, they'll give you options. | ||
| Why the fuck are you giving me an option if I can't have well done? | ||
| You should just have it your way, but it's just insulting. | ||
| It is. | ||
| It's insulting. | ||
| They give the opportunity to insult. | ||
| Because they do have that as an option. | ||
| Have you ever been a certain way, like, judge somebody by the way they order their steak? | ||
| Yeah, I do, honestly. | ||
| But again, John Jock Machado, like I said, I have nothing but respect for him. | ||
| It makes me sad that he likes well-done meat. | ||
| I know this is going to be bad. | ||
| People are like, what type of brother am I? But I took my sister out to eat once. | ||
| She ordered a steak, and she ordered it well-done. | ||
| I said, I think you should order something else. | ||
| I said, I'm not paying for a leather belt. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| And I didn't even have to eat the shit. | ||
| I wasn't going to do it. | ||
| I just felt fucked up. | ||
| You felt judgy. | ||
| I didn't feel it. | ||
| I was judgy. | ||
| A little judgy. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| I was like, let that fucking hood shit go. | ||
| But isn't that the only food that we have that with? | ||
| Like, cheeseburgers, nobody gives a fuck. | ||
| If somebody says, how do you want your cheeseburger? | ||
| Well, in the black community, when you say cheeseburger, for the most part, that's going to be well done. | ||
| Black people don't want to see the pink in it. | ||
| They'll tell you. | ||
| all the pink out well you really should with ground beef see the thing with ground beef is you don't know what the surface area is when you're eating ground beef right they take a cows whatever and they grind it up the stuff in the middle like that could have been on the outside right so you don't know like when you get a steak you sear the outside you cook the outside there's no room for bacteria and Anything that could have grown on the outside is dead. | ||
| And the inside you don't have to worry about unless it's rotten. | ||
| That's why black people get their fucking hamburgers well done, Joe. | ||
| Well, that's wise. | ||
| We didn't know it, but that's just what it was for a hamburger. | ||
| You don't want to get food poisoning. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Yeah, hamburgers, unless you are right there when they grind it or you go to a top shelf restaurant where they literally, they'll take a piece of chuck roast or even filet mignon. | ||
| Like some of them do it with like a lean cut. | ||
| If you get a burger that's ground out of filet mignon, you're in the right neighborhood. | ||
| You're in the right neighborhood. | ||
| They usually add fat to it, believe it or not. | ||
| To make it juicier. | ||
| Yeah, to make it juicier. | ||
| What is it with white people with blood, though? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I mean, like, like, I know this, but white people get a kick out of, like, the rarest they can order a steak. | ||
| Like, the blood part of it, like, yeah. | ||
| What? | ||
| Rare is weird. | ||
| When somebody orders rare, or you know what blue is? | ||
| But you proud of the blood, Joe. | ||
| No. | ||
| Every time you post an elk picture, it's like... | ||
| You can't just show the meat. | ||
| You want motherfuckers to see the knife, and you do your picture, Joe, and it's like you waited for the blood to sweat at a certain temperature. | ||
| You know when it looks the bloodiest, and that's the shot you always get. | ||
| That's not what I'm trying to do. | ||
| What I'm trying to do is show that it's cooked perfectly, that it's medium rare with respect for the meat. | ||
| When I do it, I use a thermometer. | ||
| I mean, I do it nice and slow, and I know you know how to cook. | ||
| Don't get crazy. | ||
| Wait a minute. | ||
| Don't get crazy. | ||
| Wait a minute, Joe. | ||
| Just trying to explain something. | ||
| Wait a minute, Joe. | ||
| What? | ||
| You're a man of wilderness. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And all that. | ||
| You're well respected, right? | ||
| Look at that, though. | ||
| Yeah, look at that. | ||
| Joe, look at that. | ||
| It's perfect. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| That's perfect. | ||
| It doesn't get better than that. | ||
| But you're proud of the color of it. | ||
| Because it's perfect. | ||
| It's perfectly cooked. | ||
| But it looks... | ||
| It's like... | ||
| What is it? | ||
| It's elk. | ||
| That's elk. | ||
| That's super athlete. | ||
| I argued with someone because I told them that you like elk and I can make elk. | ||
| And they were like this. | ||
| Tom Papa makes it. | ||
| The last time I spoke to you about me cooking, you were very condescending. | ||
| That's not true. | ||
| Yes, you were. | ||
| You were making fun of me. | ||
| No, I said it the same way I said you got shot. | ||
| No, okay. | ||
| I said you can cook? | ||
| Yeah, and you're right. | ||
| That's not condescending. | ||
| It is, but the way you looked at me, you looked me up and down. | ||
| You judged me, and then you said it. | ||
| That's the difference, Joe. | ||
| That's the difference. | ||
| When I said I could cook elk, you looked at me like, what the fuck got here? | ||
| Let me tell you what I've heard. | ||
| I heard you cook really well. | ||
| I heard you have amazing barbecue skills. | ||
| That could be borderline racist. | ||
| That could be borderline racist. | ||
| Isn't that your shit? | ||
| Yeah, but you said barbecue. | ||
| Listen, barbecue is one of the most complex forms of cooking. | ||
| You gotta be real careful. | ||
| You're doing it slow. | ||
| Too much, you fuck it up. | ||
| Too little, you don't do it right. | ||
| And then it's hard to put it back on because it hasn't been sitting at the same temperature the entire time. | ||
| Art of barbecuing. | ||
| But when I hear barbecue, I think about the barbecue. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| Like the black barbecue. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| With Frankie Beverly and the whole thing. | ||
| It's a whole production, not just one piece of barbecue. | ||
| That's what I was saying. | ||
| Barbecuing in Texas is mostly white people, I think. | ||
| And, yo, I will say this. | ||
| As far as my own personal experiences. | ||
| I will say this. | ||
| White people can fucking smoke some meat. | ||
| They know how to do it here, I'll tell you that. | ||
| When I first got it, I think it's a place called Black's. | ||
| I don't know if you found a favorite. | ||
| Terry Black's. | ||
| Phenomenal. | ||
| Didn't that franchise, didn't they break up like... | ||
| Yes. | ||
| They broke up. | ||
| They used to be with the family. | ||
| Then the sons started on their own. | ||
| They started beefing with each other, literally. | ||
| Yeah, they had some issues. | ||
| I don't want to air their dirty laundry on the podcast. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But the sons opened up a spot. | ||
| Somebody stole the barbecue secret sauce. | ||
| Something happened. | ||
| Something happened. | ||
| Somebody gave up the secret sauce. | ||
| Terry Black's in town has only been open since 2014, I believe, and it feels like a place that's been around 100 years. | ||
| I mean, they got it dialed in. | ||
| That barbecue's off the hook. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| They have to have it dialed in if they came up generations and generations. | ||
| They're just putting whatever the recipe is, whatever the love is. | ||
| They make their own smokers. | ||
| They use giant propane tanks, and they make their own smokers. | ||
| Or maybe that's what I enjoy. | ||
| Next level. | ||
| Yeah, white people level of barbecuing when they start doing the machines. | ||
| I should say they hire someone to make their smokers. | ||
| But they get this dude to make the smokers out of propane tanks. | ||
| They're not buying a big commercial smoker. | ||
| They're having this commercial smoker made. | ||
| They gave us a tour. | ||
| That's cheating the game, bro. | ||
| They did an amazing job. | ||
| They wanted it to their specifications. | ||
| And those propane tanks are thick as fuck. | ||
| It's heavy gauge steel. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Fuck that, man. | |
| Where's the wood? | ||
| Well, you cook with wood. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| The wood is an offset. | ||
| You know how those smokers work? | ||
| Right. | ||
| So you have a firebox. | ||
| The firebox is over on the side, and they're constantly checking the temperature and opening the flues, make sure it's at a perfect temperature. | ||
| And then you got the smoker, which is off to the side, and they're moving meat around because it's hotter where the air comes right out. | ||
| Oh, so they got the whole system. | ||
| But they're really well in. | ||
| Oh, my God. | ||
| They got it dialed in. | ||
| Their brisket is ridiculous. | ||
| That's what I'm talking about, bro. | ||
| That shit milks your mouth. | ||
| And then brisket don't come off bloody like that. | ||
| It's a different kind of animal. | ||
| That's elk. | ||
| I mean, you could have elk and you could do it that way. | ||
| They cook the neck meat that way. | ||
| My friend John Dudley. | ||
| Elk neck meat? | ||
| Yeah, neck meat. | ||
| Because the neck meat is very strong and dense. | ||
| Because elk has giant antlers, right? | ||
| It's like it's doing weights with its neck. | ||
| But an elk doesn't have no fatty. | ||
| It's no fatty fat. | ||
| no fat no fat there's a little bit of fat on the outside of them but there's no fat in the meat at all it's a totally different thing so you got to cook it slow so if it's anything other than that like medium rare like that it's going to be dried out right you want it just cooked slowly and seared on the outside so like i take a totally different approach if i'm cooking like a ribeye from a cow versus an elk steak completely different way of cooking i know that because you never post regular steak pictures it's I eat regular steak. | ||
| No, you don't. | ||
| Once you did your fucking first elk, your regular steak pictures was just dead, man. | ||
| Well, they're not as interesting to me. | ||
| Regular steak is great. | ||
| I'll cook it. | ||
| I'll eat it. | ||
| But the elk is like, I have an intimate relationship with that. | ||
| Everyone knows that. | ||
| Of course they do. | ||
| I mean... | ||
| Even when I tell people I'm going to do your show, they're like, take a bite of the elk from me. | ||
| I'm serious, man. | ||
| It's like, yo, you've done some cool shit. | ||
| They've seen you do a lot of cool shit, but they've never seen you. | ||
| And you told me, do I really want elk? | ||
| And I was like, yeah, but I was in the hospital recovering from an injury, so I couldn't get here the way I wanted to. | ||
| That's a lucky injury in a sense, right? | ||
| All the things that could have gone wrong with your thumb, not even need surgery, able to get the bullet fragments out. | ||
| I mean, that's how I run my life, man. | ||
| I try to make it easy as possible. | ||
| Anybody else could have fucking mad this injury and been fucked up. | ||
| If the pandemic can't stop me, neither can this fucking thumb, man. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| How does it feel? | ||
| I know it's a crazy question. | ||
| You get it all the time. | ||
| From being from a place, like you were saying, like what we took advantage of. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And one of the things we never took advantage of at stage time, because we always did it, but not... | ||
| Having it accessible to you all the time? | ||
| How does it feel here with not being able to be like, you know what? | ||
| I'm going to go do like fucking three spots and hammer some shit out real quick. | ||
| Well, I haven't done that since March, you know, since the store closed down. | ||
| There was no comedy at all in L.A. So it was a whole life shift. | ||
| The only time I did it on the road was July. | ||
| And in July, I did four shows of the Houston Improv. | ||
| I had a great fucking time. | ||
| I just left there, man. | ||
| Great place. | ||
| Did you feel... | ||
| I know this sounds crazy. | ||
| I know we're going to get through some mask shit, mask shit story, whatever. | ||
| But it's a club that had a certain capacity. | ||
| Now they got to trim it down to meet whatever the mandate is. | ||
| But people were in there. | ||
| Temperature check, they were in there. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I know this sounds crazy. | ||
| Some people were masked. | ||
| Some people didn't have masks. | ||
| And if I'm not mistaken, they sell the tickets as a group. | ||
| Right? | ||
| I don't know if they're doing that now, but they're doing that in a lot of places. | ||
| And it's like, you feel good about it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, but then it's like, people take away from that feeling because it's always somebody like, ah, where's the mask? | ||
| Where's the mask? | ||
| Right. | ||
| There are people that are rightly upset at people taking risks because those people that do take risks could then get sick. | ||
| And if they're irresponsible enough to take a risk and get sick, they might be irresponsible enough to go out and mingle with people when they know they're sick. | ||
| Some people are like that. | ||
| Some people are selfish. | ||
| You know that, right? | ||
| I know that. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Then you have to be... | ||
| And then they could even give it out when they don't know they have it. | ||
| It could be asymptomatic. | ||
| But then... | ||
| At some point, don't you have to be selective about the people that you engage with? | ||
| Don't you have to be selective on the chances? | ||
| This is my frustration. | ||
| I'm not a mask or a non-masker. | ||
| People make the argument, but what if I go to the grocery store and I have my mask on and there's this old lady that doesn't have her mask on? | ||
| Then I don't think you should go places where it could be people that... | ||
| Don't have their mask on. | ||
| Shouldn't you order online or something? | ||
| Just don't get in that lady's face and you're going to be fine. | ||
| Man. | ||
| I don't think you should tell some old lady that she has to put a mask on. | ||
| I ran into an old lady at the grocery store. | ||
| She didn't have a mask on. | ||
| I was like, alright. | ||
| What are you going to do? | ||
| She's old, man. | ||
| I mean, this lady, she probably feels terrible breathing through the mask. | ||
| She probably feels like she doesn't have much time. | ||
| She's about to have an asthma attack. | ||
| She had one on, but she was doing this shit. | ||
| I got into an argument. | ||
| That chin shit that people are doing? | ||
| I get yelled at. | ||
| I went to a grocery store. | ||
| I'm getting a couple of items. | ||
| And I had my motherfucking mask. | ||
| And Joe, when I tell you, the tip of my nose was showing. | ||
| The tip, right here. | ||
| People got mad. | ||
| And this lady's behind plexiglass. | ||
| She had sanitizer. | ||
| She was squirting the register every minute. | ||
| She had a mask and everything. | ||
| And my shit went right to the tip of my nose. | ||
| She was like, sir, sir, sir, sir. | ||
| You got to put your mask on. | ||
| You got to put your mask on. | ||
| I'm like, oh, I'm sorry. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Now I gotta pay. | ||
| I do Apple Pay. | ||
| But to get into my phone... | ||
| You gotta open up the phone. | ||
| With my face. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So I put it down. | ||
| Sir, I'm sorry! | ||
| I'm like, I'm trying to pay. | ||
| I gotta log in on my face. | ||
| She was like, well, you can't do that in here. | ||
| Right? | ||
| You can't use Apple Pay? | ||
| I can't show my face to open my phone up. | ||
| You gotta use Samsung Pay. | ||
| They let you use your fingerprint. | ||
| Time to switch to Android. | ||
| I don't have an Android. | ||
| That's very evil for you. | ||
| I have an Android. | ||
| I know, but I wouldn't talk about your fucking phone, Joe. | ||
| Why is it evil? | ||
| Because it was the wrong time! | ||
| It was the fucking wrong time! | ||
| And the thing I was making, so I had to... | ||
| How'd you guys... | ||
| You're digging. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| This is what I had to do, Joe. | ||
| I had to actually stand, leave the register, go to where I could outside, show my face, open my phone up, and I went to pay. | ||
| And then when that happened, I could have been pissed, but I could have been like, you know what? | ||
| I'm just never going to go to that store again. | ||
| Well, it's just a lady working. | ||
| Just put the mask over your nose. | ||
| I'm not going to put myself in a situation where I can get frustrated. | ||
| I didn't. | ||
| It was just for... | ||
| Just for Apple Pay. | ||
| But you were already arguing with her, right? | ||
| Is that part of the problem? | ||
| I never said I was arguing, so... | ||
| She was already telling you to put your mask over your nose. | ||
| So she was in a heightened state of... | ||
| Awareness? | ||
| Of frustration. | ||
| Yeah, but she also... | ||
| I don't know if it was me, but you know what? | ||
| It was me. | ||
| I didn't see that energy around anybody else. | ||
| Perfect time to use the black card. | ||
| I'm not going to do it. | ||
| It's the nose card. | ||
| She saw your nose and she's... | ||
| Some people are just like real sticklers for shit. | ||
| You know Bridget Phetasy? | ||
| No, who's that? | ||
| Comic from LA. Writer. | ||
| She told me she was walking on one side of the street and there was a guy across the street on the sidewalk on the other side. | ||
| Yelled at her. | ||
| Put a mask on! | ||
| Let me tell you something. | ||
| This argument, I know it's for safety and everything. | ||
| I know it's for safety and what the lives we share and all that. | ||
| But for some people, it's a perfect opportunity to be an asshole. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| It's like, and that's the fine line. | ||
| It's like, do you really care about this mask or you get to either, it's discrimination against mask people and no mask people. | ||
| It's just people have an opportunity to tell people what to do. | ||
| They get mad. | ||
| They do. | ||
| Yeah, they love it. | ||
| And then you want to adhere to it, then they get mad because you're not listening to the rules. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Well, that's why people are particularly upset at this Gavin Newsom shit. | ||
| Because he's been the one telling us, you can't have large gatherings for Thanksgiving, stay home, social distance, wear a mask in between bites of food. | ||
| This guy's been saying all this shit. | ||
| And now you go see him eating at a restaurant. | ||
| So does that mean do we believe everything? | ||
| So that's a perfect example of you know a lot of things are motivated through politics and looks. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Everything that you see is not really what you think it is. | ||
| So how much... | ||
| How much are you going to put into a person? | ||
| Politician? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Not much. | ||
| What kind of person wants to do that? | ||
| That's the problem. | ||
| What kind of person wants to be a governor? | ||
| They're not normal. | ||
| And you didn't care until the pandemic. | ||
| When the pandemic rolled around, you realize, oh, the mayor matters. | ||
| It really matters who your maker is. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You know what? | |
| I think a lot of them, like, have dreams of a certain amount of fame and want to be superstars. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Because even though you say you do it for the people, you have to be likable or have some type of personality to connect with those people. | ||
| And you're cultivating your act. | ||
| They have an act, too. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| They have an act that's different than our act. | ||
| Our act is to make people laugh. | ||
| Their act is to get people to think that they're the person who's got the solution. | ||
| There's our leader. | ||
| So their act is to lie. | ||
| Yes. | ||
|
unidentified
|
100%. | |
| You know what, Joe? | ||
| We're going through all of this shit, and even with this last election, whoever you decide you like, appreciate, whatever, it was just a weird thing going on. | ||
| It was a weird thing going on. | ||
| And I was watching one of David Goggins' posts, and I have to say, David Goggins, I've never seen nobody have worse feet than my feet. | ||
| Oh, his feet are broken down. | ||
| But he just got done running 240 miles. | ||
| I know he's going to defend that and I was going to say the same thing, Joe. | ||
| I know you're going to say, but what has he done with his feet and what have you done with your feet? | ||
| So, I know you were going to be like, you know how many mountains? | ||
| Those are fucking rock blisters. | ||
| Yeah, legitimate. | ||
| I knew he was going to say that and that's the point I was going to make. | ||
| That's the point I was going to make. | ||
| He said... | ||
| Jesus Christ, look at those big toes. | ||
| Yeah, those look like crazy. | ||
| They've been through it. | ||
| That is hilarious. | ||
| That thing on the left, he showed me that. | ||
| If you cut out the right foot's big toe, that right foot's big toe, if you showed me a photo of that and didn't show me the rest of his foot, I'd be like, that's like a snail or something. | ||
| If you did that, people would say that was my foot. | ||
| That's a Mars rock. | ||
| Zoom in on just the toe. | ||
| Don't show me anything but his right toe. | ||
| That's a rock from Mars. | ||
| That's not real. | ||
| But that's fucking a lot of miles, Joe. | ||
| That's a brain of steel. | ||
| That man has a brain of steel. | ||
| He knows how to force himself to do shit that hurts. | ||
| This is what he was saying. | ||
| And then whatever it is, one thing about him, he always has to remind you that he was a fat piece of shit. | ||
| That's got to be... | ||
| Must be the number one motivating thing for it. | ||
| Look at that, Toe. | ||
| Goddamn, son. | ||
| So if you didn't see the rest of it, you'd be like, what is that? | ||
| Oh, that's a rock somewhere. | ||
| That's on another planet. | ||
| That's a satellite photo. | ||
| Oh, nigga, don't go there. | ||
| That's a satellite photo. | ||
| See, white people, y'all gross as shit, son. | ||
| That's a satellite photo. | ||
| You want to see blood and pus come out of that motherfucker. | ||
| I know your thing. | ||
| Like, Jamie, go closer. | ||
| But the point he made, son, he said, everybody, I used to be a fat piece of shit. | ||
| Yeah, he was 300 pounds. | ||
| Yeah, I was 300 when I was a piece of shit. | ||
| Everybody's looking for, I need the answer with this person. | ||
| I need the answer with that person. | ||
| But fuck it, why don't you be the answer for yourself? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I know people are like, well, that's easy to say. | ||
| But why not... | ||
| Find the answers you need in life through yourself. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And through what you do, your hard work, and the type of person, and type of human, and type of father you are. | ||
| That's why people like him are so important, because he'll tell you. | ||
| People like him are so important, because he'll tell you. | ||
| He used to have no discipline. | ||
| Right. | ||
| So look at him now. | ||
| This is not something he was born with. | ||
| Really quick, I gotta interrupt. | ||
| It's so funny you said discipline, because I was having coffee with Dave today, and then he said that about you, because I was talking about, I can't drink no shit with my antibiotics when I got shot and everything. | ||
| In some kind of way, we talked about you, and that's what he said. | ||
| He said, I fucking love and respect his discipline. | ||
| I do have some of that, but I'm lazy too, man. | ||
| I force myself into all the stuff that I do. | ||
| Yeah, but you get challenged by something, though. | ||
| Something kicks you in the ass. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, I don't like not doing what I'm supposed to do, so I force myself to do what I'm supposed to do, but it's never easy. | ||
| It's not easy, you know? | ||
| It's like I always would think of disciplined people as being like there was no wavering. | ||
| They just got up and did it. | ||
| But that's the other thing Goggins tells you. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He goes, sometimes I'll stare at my shoes for 30 motherfucking minutes before I put them bitches on. | |
| Yeah, because you want to get rid of them ugly-ass feet, son. | ||
| Goddamn, son. | ||
| That's not what he's talking about, though. | ||
| He's talking about discipline. | ||
| I know this is the worst time, Joe. | ||
| I did a pivot. | ||
| I opened up my own store, right? | ||
| And after I just saw David Gogger's feet, you got to help me get that. | ||
| Look at that shit, son. | ||
| We sold candles a lot, son. | ||
| No, son. | ||
| You don't know about that right there. | ||
| Yo, son. | ||
| That is... | ||
| Yo, put a little on your hand. | ||
| Please put a little on your hand. | ||
| It smells good. | ||
| That shit is vegan. | ||
| It's all natural. | ||
| It's fire, son. | ||
| Watch what I say, son. | ||
| Watch what I say. | ||
| Watch how long that shit lasts, yo. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Feels good. | ||
| I know it sounds weird. | ||
| Look at that shit, son. | ||
| It does smell good. | ||
| Raw edge. | ||
| The ingredients are all on the back. | ||
| I know you don't got your glass. | ||
| You don't have to read it. | ||
| But it's like type of oils and coconuts I never heard of in my life. | ||
| It smells like coconut. | ||
| Coconut, a goo goo, all the black nuts and oils. | ||
| CBD, son. | ||
| Feel me? | ||
| I don't know what this stuff is. | ||
| When I... Mongongo oil? | ||
| What is that? | ||
| Yeah, Google it. | ||
| Google it. | ||
| Google it. | ||
| And Mad Rich Plant Butters. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Good... | |
| Mad... | ||
| Yo, you laughing, son? | ||
| You're laughing, but that shit is fire, son. | ||
| It's good. | ||
| I'm just laughing at the... | ||
| Erykah Badu put that shit on, right? | ||
| I love it. | ||
| Erykah Badu put that shit on. | ||
| Nah, that's you, son. | ||
| Oh, thank you. | ||
| Listen, Erykah Badu put that on, son. | ||
| And she started rubbing herself real, real slow. | ||
| She hadn't been out in a pandemic in a while. | ||
| And she was like, mmm. | ||
| She was like, is it edible? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| How high was she? | ||
| Was she really high? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| Are you disrespecting my product? | ||
| No, but if I was thinking about taking cream and eating it, I'd probably have to be pretty high. | ||
| Certain people react to things differently, Joe. | ||
| But it does smell like food, though. | ||
| It smells like a delicious pina colada. | ||
| But wait to it. | ||
| It's like food. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| It's like food for your body. | ||
| Your body is eating right now, Joe. | ||
| And 100 milligrams of CBD. Yep. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| Mongogo oil. | ||
| There it is right there. | ||
| CBD and hemp seed oil. | ||
| Cocoa butter. | ||
| We got all the nuts. | ||
| Look at this. | ||
| When did you start this business? | ||
| How long ago? | ||
| I've been working on the formula for two years. | ||
| Scroll down. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| Why does it say too classy? | ||
| Because that's the feeling. | ||
| Go from ashy to classy. | ||
| That's the feeling you have. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| I like the sparkle. | ||
| The thing about it, Joe, I've been ashy my whole life, right? | ||
| You know that? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| And for years, people were like, you should do lotion. | ||
| You should do lotion. | ||
| I'm like, man, it's kind of corny. | ||
| I mean, it could be the novelty. | ||
| It could be funny. | ||
| Yo, ashy Larry got his own lotion. | ||
| And I was like, fuck that shit. | ||
| Then I met with this young lady, and she's like a chemist when it comes to this lotion shit. | ||
| And we started working on it. | ||
| And then when I found it... | ||
| Tried what was the end product. | ||
| I was like, this shit really work. | ||
| Like, it really works and it's good. | ||
| It sounds like it's good for your muscles, too, if it's got CBD in it. | ||
| It's good for everything. | ||
| Your hands are going to thank me later, son. | ||
| I believe it. | ||
| What is the name of the website? | ||
| Donnell Rawlins. | ||
| That's where you can get it. | ||
| Donnell Rawlins. | ||
| Opened up the stores, son. | ||
| Oh, I like it. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| Look at you. | ||
| Entrepreneurial. | ||
| I never... | ||
| This is one thing that came out of this, not just for me, Joe, for a lot of people. | ||
| Think about this. | ||
| A person that makes their money on the road. | ||
| A real road comic. | ||
| This happened to me. | ||
| 95% of the money that I make is on the road. | ||
| 95% of the shows I had are done. | ||
| It's the only thing I have from what I usually make is that 5%, and I didn't enough for shit. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And even though you can have some money stacked up or whatever, you still got to ask yourself, what the fuck is going to be the pivot? | ||
| I don't think the pivot's going to come for a long time either, in terms of us being able to get back to work. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| We're about to get back to work next summer. | ||
| Next summer, you think? | ||
| Joe! | ||
| Donnell. | ||
| I'm not trying to say I don't believe in Corona right now, but we are on the track of not just deadening shit, but being able to have it under control. | ||
| We're about to get to the point where people are going to have more sense of security. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Just think about the progress we made in a year from when this shit first happened. | ||
| You take a Corona test, you had to wait like seven days. | ||
| Think about it when it first hit. | ||
| We had to like, oh my god, it was so scary, so scary. | ||
| And then all these ventilators, ventilators, ventilators. | ||
| But if you know now, since when the pandemic started, yeah, we're still losing people. | ||
| But you don't hear that ventilator talk too much no more. | ||
| Well, ventilators are actually a bad idea now, they realize. | ||
| My point. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| They figured out a lot of things. | ||
| I did a whole podcast yesterday on COVID with Nicholas Christakis from Yale. | ||
| He a COVID nigga? | ||
| He believes that COVID is a real problem. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| I believe it, but I think it's controllable. | ||
| It is controllable. | ||
| I think it's a multifaceted problem, and I think we're only handling one aspect of it, which is keep people from working, keep people home, keep people away from people. | ||
| No, you can't do that. | ||
| You're treating people like they're children. | ||
| This is what you gotta do, Joe. | ||
| You gotta let them go outside. | ||
| This is what you gotta do. | ||
| We're going to have more creative ways to make money. | ||
| Like, think about the comedy scene. | ||
| When we thought, like, the only place to tell jokes was on the stage. | ||
| And I had some resentment toward some of those outdoor events, the parking lot shit. | ||
| First time I saw one of those parking lot shows with horns, I was like, never give a heckler an instrument to fuck your show up. | ||
| I'm like, there's no way I'm going to... | ||
| These motherfuckers don't like me. | ||
| There's no way I'm going to be... | ||
| Yeah, but people are happy to be out, man. | ||
| It's a different experience. | ||
| That's, and the point I was making is like, you can suppress people, you can call them down for a certain period of time, but after a while, you're going to have to figure something out. | ||
| My point I was going to make is, they're only looking at one side of it. | ||
| They're not looking at telling people how to be healthy. | ||
| There's no talk about that. | ||
| Nigga! | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Nigga! | ||
| That's what's up, right? | ||
| Son! | ||
| You a strong motherfucker. | ||
| All your niggas are strong. | ||
| Jamie might be the least strong out of everybody. | ||
| Stop with the dings. | ||
| Shut your phone's ding off, man. | ||
| Jamie, I'm not saying you not strong, son. | ||
| That's what you just said, though. | ||
| Yeah, but you're comparing him to Tony Hinchcliffe. | ||
| I'm just saying. | ||
| Or Red Band. | ||
| Oh yeah, I didn't forget about it. | ||
| Listen, he's got a deadly three-pointer. | ||
| He's got a deadly three-pointer and he runs. | ||
| Jamie's in shape. | ||
| That's black shape. | ||
| That's black people's shape. | ||
| He does pull-ups. | ||
| That's black people's shape. | ||
| Run, play basketball, and pull-ups. | ||
| And push-ups. | ||
| You do like the jail workouts. | ||
| Jamie's actually in good shape. | ||
| I know. | ||
| I believe it. | ||
| I'm sorry, Jamie. | ||
| I didn't mean to offend you, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I get it. | |
| He's back there. | ||
| He doesn't talk a lot. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God damn. | |
| I know. | ||
| Then when he finally talks, it's like, yo, when he finally talks... | ||
| Jamie, show him that video of you dunking, shooting three-pointers. | ||
| I never said he couldn't play basketball, son. | ||
| Dude, it's impressive. | ||
| Like Rain Man shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, no. | |
| No, he can't dunk. | ||
| We're working on that. | ||
| He's hitting three-pointer after three-pointer like Rain Man. | ||
| There's something weird about him. | ||
| He might have a wire crossed in his brain. | ||
| I didn't know you was nice. | ||
| What I'm saying is, to go back to your point, Joe, is everybody's talking about the end of Corona. | ||
| Like Don Lemon, man. | ||
| Don Lemon, man. | ||
| Son, four years, son. | ||
| Four years straight, he complained. | ||
| He was mad at Donald Trump for four fucking years. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Four years. | ||
| And I was like, man, if Donald Trump wins this election, Don Lemon is going to jump off the CNN building. | ||
| Do you remember all their faces when he won last time? | ||
| When he won in 2016? | ||
| They were all so depressed. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Jake Tapper and all those people on TV just like, motherfucker, I can't believe this. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But here's the thing, Joe. | ||
| I'm like... | ||
| I don't think you're supposed to do that if you're doing the news. | ||
| If you're doing commentary, you can do that. | ||
| I think if you're doing the news, you're supposed to say the news. | ||
| Joe. | ||
| Let us figure it out. | ||
| Joe. | ||
| Donnell. | ||
| Joe. | ||
| That's why I do subscribe to the notion that fake news. | ||
| Like, to be honest, it's all fake. | ||
| It's all of them are fake. | ||
| It's a lot of fake. | ||
| And this is what I did. | ||
| What I keep on telling people is like, I know you're upset, but when you're like, you're It's all personal. | ||
| Everything hits you to the heart. | ||
| Well, that's where it gets weird. | ||
| Those two guys, Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon, both of them, they do this editorializing. | ||
| It's almost like they're doing a podcast. | ||
| And their opinion is all in it. | ||
| And their opinion's in it, but it's also scripted. | ||
| It's on the other side, too. | ||
| But it's scripted. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they're doing it on a news channel. | ||
| There's a lot going on there. | ||
| But that's why, if you don't... | ||
| Here's another thing about the media. | ||
| If you didn't understand, whatever party you agree with, if you don't understand... | ||
| How easy it is to manipulate the media, Joe? | ||
| It is so, so simple. | ||
| To manipulate the media? | ||
| To manipulate the media and the people to listen to it. | ||
| You can manipulate people. | ||
| What do you mean by manipulate the media? | ||
| You can create stories. | ||
| You can create stories. | ||
| You can make things happen. | ||
| I got shot! | ||
| I got shot in my motherfucking thumb! | ||
| That's what I heard. | ||
| And a lot of people don't believe me. | ||
| I believe you. | ||
| I don't believe that you believe me, Joe. | ||
| That's what I believe, motherfucker. | ||
| That's not convincing. | ||
| But the point I'm making is, like, when I first got shot, Joe, I posted on Instagram. | ||
| I didn't want to post on Instagram because I know that I didn't want to get no war in the streets going on. | ||
| People, like, going out looking for the person that shot me in my thumb. | ||
| So I kept it to myself. | ||
| It didn't really bring it to me, people's attention. | ||
| I posted one picture of me being in the hospital. | ||
| Everybody's like, you okay? | ||
| You okay? | ||
| They don't know what I got shot for, but they instantly got connected to that story. | ||
| Did you ever think of not posting it? | ||
| I did. | ||
| What made you decide to post it? | ||
| The world needs to know? | ||
| The world needs to know. | ||
| Some of the gigs I had to postpone when I was shot up, not locked up. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| I wasn't ready to share to the world then. | ||
| I didn't know how my friends were going to take it. | ||
| Then I wanted to be transparent and be honest and let them know I got shot. | ||
| That's what I did. | ||
| You know? | ||
| I see. | ||
| You still don't believe me. | ||
| I do believe you. | ||
| I think you're just looking for a very specific reaction from me. | ||
| I gave that up a long time ago, bro. | ||
| I was like, whatever. | ||
| That was what made me nervous the first time I came up. | ||
| I'm like, what the fuck do I say? | ||
| Say what you say, nigga. | ||
| Don't try to... | ||
| Alright, I'm here! | ||
| You are here. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But... | |
| Are you thinking about bailing out of LA yet? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| Yeah, a lot of people are. | ||
| The reason that we've started feeling... | ||
| When we don't... | ||
| Well, you don't really need Hollywood like that. | ||
| I don't think anybody needs it anymore. | ||
| Some people thought they did. | ||
| You're right. | ||
| Some people thought they did. | ||
| They thought it was like you had to be here every night. | ||
| I thought I needed to be there for a long time. | ||
| And then once what happened in this situation, then you realize, oh, what can I do? | ||
| You're like, wait a minute. | ||
| I really can make my own community. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| I can make my own community. | ||
| Not only that, you get connected to all the other communities and all the other podcasts. | ||
| We all help each other. | ||
| We're all together. | ||
| I will say one thing white people do. | ||
| When it comes to podcasts, they support each other. | ||
| Yeah, we support each other. | ||
| But you know what, man? | ||
| That's a new thing. | ||
| Because in radio, it was the opposite. | ||
| When they had radio, they'd attack each other. | ||
| Like, I remember Opie and Anthony was always at war with Howard Stern, and Jay Leno was always at war with all the other late-night talk show hosts. | ||
| But did you think that that made people engaged? | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| They were just scared. | ||
| Because they only had a... | ||
| Like, back in the day when you were on television or the radio, you had a very specific time slot. | ||
| You had 6am to 10am, right? | ||
| Day parts. | ||
| And other people are also on at 6am to 10am. | ||
| And no one's recording anything. | ||
| So you have to listen to it live. | ||
| I was a part of that. | ||
| I don't know if you... | ||
| I was a part of when Hot 97 was the biggest and Urban Radio in New York was the biggest. | ||
| And then I was doing radio when... | ||
| Power 105 came and became a competitor. | ||
| They had no competition at first. | ||
| It was just them. | ||
| Then they got challenged. | ||
| And that's what made for interesting shit between both of them. | ||
| It's like, yeah, we talk shit about... | ||
| 97.1, 97.5, then 105. Then you start listening to both of them to see what shit they're talking. | ||
| You could do that if you're them, or you could listen, and if you like it, tell people it's good. | ||
| That's what podcasters do. | ||
| Like, if I'm listening to your show, I'll tell people, John L. Rollins' show is hilarious. | ||
| Or listen to this guy, or listen to her, or listen to... | ||
| I'll tell people I don't even fucking know, man. | ||
| I tell people about podcasts that I listen to from NPR or fucking Radiolab. | ||
| I always tell people. | ||
| Because I'm interested in cool shit. | ||
| I want to know about cool shit. | ||
| And if I find cool shit, I want to tell other people about cool shit. | ||
| I'm not worried. | ||
| People don't think that that's cool enough. | ||
| Well, they're worried about if they talk about something else, it's going to take opinions. | ||
| It's going to take attention away from them. | ||
| That's what's called famine thinking. | ||
| You can never think that. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Famine? | |
| Famine. | ||
| Feast or famine. | ||
| I'm a feast thinker. | ||
| I always think there's enough for everybody. | ||
| Everybody come aboard. | ||
| I want everybody to be happy. | ||
| I want everybody to make money. | ||
| I want everybody to be famous. | ||
| I want everybody to be happy. | ||
| I want them to be fulfilled. | ||
| I don't want to be the man. | ||
| That idea of being the man to me is ridiculous. | ||
| That's your idea, but on the outside of it, when you do stuff like that, for some people and their perception of you, that's what makes you the man. | ||
| That's what makes you, if you're able to inspire and motivate, that's what makes you the man that you say you're not. | ||
| Well, I'm happy if that's the case that people think that way, but I'm in a position to be generous, so I'm generous. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They know it. | |
| They hold it against you, too. | ||
| It feels good to be generous. | ||
| They hold it against me. | ||
| Who holds it against me? | ||
| People that don't like me. | ||
| They hold it against you that I have you on? | ||
| No, people that don't like me, they'll say something. | ||
| They hold it against me because you. | ||
| Oh, because like the RZA podcast? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jamie? | |
| Is that what he's talking about? | ||
| No. | ||
| What are you talking about? | ||
| People who don't like you don't know you. | ||
| Yeah, but some people, they told me they wasn't going to like you anymore because you liked me. | ||
| Good luck. | ||
| If that's how crazy you are... | ||
| They said they wasn't going to like you because you didn't... | ||
| But that's ridiculous. | ||
| Anybody who thinks like that is out of their fucking mind. | ||
| They was saying shit like this, and I don't read the comments, Joe. | ||
| They were saying shit like this. | ||
| They were like, well, Joe was right up to this point... | ||
| Yo, they like you had a track record. | ||
| Like, yeah, I believe everything's said until he got loudmouthed up there. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| I don't think anybody will ever understand the camaraderie that we all have, that comics have. | ||
| It's a different world. | ||
| But the podcast world is totally different. | ||
| Y'all motherfuckers. | ||
| Yo, y'all motherfuckers. | ||
| It's just like... | ||
| But man, the podcast world is so fucking dope. | ||
| And the podcast world was ready for the pandemic. | ||
| The podcast people was like this, what? | ||
| Pandemic? | ||
| I get to spend more time with my kids. | ||
| I get to spend more time with my kids. | ||
| And you get to spend more time doing podcasts because everybody's free. | ||
| Even if you have to do those stupid Zoom podcasts, you're still spending more time doing podcasts. | ||
| Yeah, but it's like you figured out like they knew it was going to happen before it fucking happened. | ||
| I came in right at the right time. | ||
| I don't think they knew it was going to happen before it happened, but I think they got lucky. | ||
| They got lucky that they were... | ||
| Look, man, back when I was just dependent upon Hollywood and gigs, I'd be fucked right now. | ||
| I'd have no income coming in. | ||
| But you saw the future, too, son. | ||
| I said this to you before. | ||
| Like, when you hear Joe Rogan, you hear about this Spotify deal, and you hear about all this type of shit, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. | ||
| You don't understand? | ||
| Like I said, Joe, everybody wants to be you right now, but nobody wants to be you when people are saying no and equipment was breaking down and we didn't know we was going to do it. | ||
| The thing is, I didn't think about it that way. | ||
| I didn't think, like, I know this is going to blow up. | ||
| I thought, I like doing this. | ||
| I'm going to keep doing this. | ||
| So you just continue to have fun with it? | ||
| I just do what I like. | ||
| All the shit that I do, if you think about it, I just do what I like. | ||
| Whether it's stand-up comedy, or whether it's UFC commentary, or whether it's doing a podcast, I do what I like. | ||
| I do what I like. | ||
| I don't think, oh, if I do this, it's gonna be huge. | ||
| I just do what I like. | ||
| That's the most empowering thing that is so hard. | ||
| That's the most empowering thing that is so hard for people To feel comfortable enough to do it. | ||
| It's hard, yeah. | ||
| Because to turn it into... | ||
| This motherfucker says fuck bitches all the time. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| They haven't figured out a way to get a W-9 or anything for it. | ||
| People get nervous about the future, too. | ||
| You gotta have enough confidence in yourself to take chances. | ||
| Do you think... | ||
| That there are a lot of pussies out here? | ||
| There's a lot of pussies out here. | ||
| Is our country pussy? | ||
| Our country has a lot of pussy in it because it's too easy to get by and it's human nature to become soft when things are easy. | ||
| And when you're in any sign of any kind of struggle whatsoever, that's when the real pussies emerge. | ||
| Because they can't handle any pressure. | ||
| Or they go. | ||
| Or they leave. | ||
| You see how bad they are. | ||
| Because they fall apart. | ||
| Any adversity at all. | ||
| This is beyond that now. | ||
| It's not beyond that now, Joe. | ||
| The reason why it's beyond that. | ||
| This is a personality trait. | ||
| Not to say that I'm a fan of Donald Trump or anything. | ||
| But it was certain things that I could understand where the thought comes from. | ||
| But how you articulate to people is all fucked up. | ||
| The way he articulated it to people is terrible at it. | ||
| Certain people need filters. | ||
| Certain people need, like, Kanye West needs an interpreter. | ||
| You know what he needed? | ||
| He needed a coach. | ||
| Because someone coached him for that second Biden debate. | ||
| If you watch that second Biden debate, he was calm and cool. | ||
| Let Biden work himself up and stammer and lie about shit. | ||
| And he had still attacked him, but he attacked him in a different way. | ||
| The first time he did it, he was obnoxious. | ||
| He kept talking over him. | ||
| He didn't let him talk. | ||
| It was ridiculous. | ||
| Everybody wanted to shut his mic off. | ||
| But then someone must have coached him for this, or he realized himself to take a different approach. | ||
| I'm going to tell you something about the difference. | ||
| I'm going to tell you something about the difference. | ||
| Whatever numbers you say, the loser of this election still won, breaking the record. | ||
| I know, isn't that crazy? | ||
| Second place still was... | ||
| Second place would be first place. | ||
| Any other time. | ||
| In history, it would have shitted on everything. | ||
| That's nuts. | ||
| It shows everybody realize it's important to find... | ||
| When you realize that a guy like Donald Trump can become president, you realize, oh my God, it's actually important to vote. | ||
| Yo, bruh. | ||
| You know, it has to... | ||
| Until you see those numbers, yo, it was like... | ||
| It was crazy. | ||
| It was like in certain places separated by 5,000 votes. | ||
| I know. | ||
| 10,000 votes. | ||
| Yeah, it was tight. | ||
| And you could say, you could make an argument. | ||
| It could have went either way. | ||
| Here's the situation. | ||
| Man, Donald Trump let it be known that he didn't give a fuck about anybody but his base. | ||
| Yeah, pretty much. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| And I'm not saying, if it's a numbers game, understand that. | ||
| Like, there's a certain amount of people that will help you get elected. | ||
| There's a certain amount of people. | ||
| That's why you have strategists and shit. | ||
| They'll be like, if we do this, we get these robocalls here and everything. | ||
| You know, it's the science to that. | ||
| There's certain people that can help you get there. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, if he... | |
| If he softened his approach up, I think the base would not have appreciated it. | ||
| It's like, love him or hate him. | ||
| It's very polarizing. | ||
| To hate him works for a situation. | ||
| Whereas Biden, I don't think people love Biden. | ||
| Something has to be... | ||
| I don't think they dislike him either. | ||
| But they hate Trump. | ||
| The people that voted for Biden hate Trump. | ||
| Most of them. | ||
| Or just feel like we just can't do this anymore. | ||
| The people that voted for Biden hate Trump. | ||
| But they're not excited about him the way they're excited about Obama or excited about Clinton or excited about a million other presidents in the past. | ||
| Yeah, but for the most part, every time it switches over, it's because somebody goes totally opposite of what was going on. | ||
| Yeah, there's a little bit of that. | ||
| But it's usually bullshit. | ||
| It's bullshit, man. | ||
| But I'm like, man... | ||
| These old stories. | ||
| These old stories that they're repeating over and over again. | ||
| Biden is filling up his cabinet with all these billionaire hedge fund people's... | ||
| Not hedge fund people, but like the guy that is involved in environmental. | ||
| He just hired some guy that people are upset about. | ||
| I don't know what color he is. | ||
| I was reading about the environmental advisor. | ||
| That's important to me. | ||
| Because he worked for a fucking oil company. | ||
| The black part is important to me. - An environmental advisor was taking money from fossil fuel companies. | ||
| And they're like, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. | ||
| This guy has ties to fossil fuels and you're doing something with him that involves the environment. | ||
| There could be a conflict of interest. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| If he's a black guy, okay. | ||
| Yeah, if he's a black guy. | ||
| We'll find out right now. | ||
| I think they're probably going to hire a lot of Republicans. | ||
| That's what they did. | ||
| They already started. | ||
| Black guy. | ||
| They're going to hire a lot of people that want to... | ||
| Listen, in their defense, they probably think some radical things need to be done to kickstart the economy right now. | ||
| The economy's kind of fucked. | ||
| I agree, but I don't know how they're going to be able to work together. | ||
| I think they're all dirty, bro. | ||
| They all work together. | ||
| Here it goes. | ||
| Biden just appointed his climate movement liaison. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Black man! | |
| Black man! | ||
| Yes! | ||
| Told you, son! | ||
| It's a fossil fuel industry ally. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Black! | |
| Yeah. | ||
| There he is. | ||
| Black! | ||
| Look at black as shit. | ||
| That's all I need, Joe. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| He raked in big money from fossil fuel industry while waiting to help oil and gas companies. | ||
| Or voting, rather, to help oil and gas companies. | ||
| Look how he's greeting them. | ||
| It's different. | ||
| Look, he's giving them knuckles. | ||
| Hey, fella. | ||
| My motherfucker. | ||
| There's a video of Lindsey Graham and Kamala Harris fist bumping each other. | ||
| It's adorable. | ||
| Kamala Harris. | ||
| Reaching across the aisle. | ||
| That was a good move. | ||
| He's walking by, fist bumps. | ||
| Well, she's the only good move. | ||
| She's strong. | ||
| You know, she was a district attorney. | ||
| She got some questionable arrests on her. | ||
| Of course. | ||
| There's some shit that she did imprisoning people and keeping them in prison to use them to fight wildfires and shit, but... | ||
| In my community, I've heard people talk about her and everything. | ||
| You have trust in her? | ||
| You believe in her? | ||
| What I did believe in was when she got elected to be the first female vice president, first black president. | ||
| Within a couple of days, the commercials I've seen on different urban platforms, or just period, It's been, you see a little black girl, right? | ||
| Looking up to something. | ||
| You know? | ||
| We see that shadow with her standing there and the little black girls in the shadow. | ||
| Black girls in the shadow. | ||
| But the little girls are just showing us like this. | ||
| You could be that person. | ||
| Yeah, they feel black girl joy. | ||
| They see something... | ||
| She also, you know, she didn't do just bad things. | ||
| She did a lot of good things. | ||
| She prosecuted a lot of child sex predators, a lot of pieces of shit, a lot of bad people. | ||
| It wasn't just the situations where people should have been let out of jail and weren't. | ||
| But there's also, like... | ||
| This is the thing that we have to realize when it comes to district attorneys and just attorneys and prosecutors and defense attorneys in general. | ||
| They're trying to win a game. | ||
| And it gets dirty. | ||
| When I tell you what my prosecutor screams? | ||
| You haven't yet, but I'm sure you will. | ||
| Sorry, go ahead. | ||
| You're trying to prosecute people or defend people. | ||
| The people defend people they know are fucking guilty. | ||
| And they'll keep shit from the prosecution even though they know they're defending a guilty person. | ||
| They do it all the time. | ||
| And people prosecute people that they're not sure are guilty. | ||
| And they'll pretend they're sure that that person's guilty because they want to win. | ||
| And they'll withhold information that could potentially exonerate that person because they're playing a game. | ||
| When you let people play a game, anytime you let people play a game and someone's trying to win, they cheat. | ||
| They try to figure out a way to do better than you with influence, by withholding things, by holding things back. | ||
| They know this judge. | ||
| They're tight with this lawyer. | ||
| They try to win a game. | ||
| You've made it a game. | ||
| So you've got a prosecutor and you've got a defense attorney. | ||
| So you've got two competing forces. | ||
| You're always going to have lies. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| Because people play games. | ||
| So that was the business she's in. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Us saying that she did this, that's her business. | |
| That's her business. | ||
| And they are a business of words. | ||
| Like you're saying, there's no personal connection. | ||
| She's in the business of laws. | ||
| How do I win with... | ||
| Laws, but laws are the word. | ||
| How do I win with these words right here? | ||
| No matter what you think, how do I win with this? | ||
| Come on, Kamala, you know that's not right. | ||
| We're not talking about right. | ||
| We're talking about what we can prove. | ||
| And that's what law is all about, right? | ||
| Well, if you are a defense attorney, that's your job is to protect somebody and try to get them off even if they might be guilty. | ||
| And if you're a prosecutor, your job is to prosecute somebody. | ||
| Your job is not to go, hey, we might be wrong. | ||
| Your job is not to go, hey, let's... | ||
| But the shady shit is when you don't play by the rules and you withhold information or withhold evidence. | ||
| And people have done that in the past, and that's when things get real squirrely. | ||
| Because, like, okay, now you're not playing the game. | ||
| You're using your unfair advantage of being able to suppress... | ||
| But nothing surprises you. | ||
| Nothing surprises you. | ||
| No, it doesn't surprise me. | ||
| But what I'm saying is it doesn't make a person all bad. | ||
| She's not all bad. | ||
| She's done a lot of very good things. | ||
| I read an article about all the different things she did, including the different things that she did that a lot of people thought were bad, like threatening moms that they would go to jail if their son was truant. | ||
| But it turns out no one ever went to jail. | ||
| It was a threat, and obviously it's terrifying to be a single mom and think you might get put in jail because your son is just running around and doesn't show up at school because you've worked two jobs trying to put food on the table. | ||
| But nobody ever actually did get arrested and went to jail. | ||
| Yeah, because it's going to be too hard to prove that shit, man. | ||
| And in some cases, some people are too lazy in certain situations, too. | ||
| Well, I'm saying it's not a good idea to threaten a mother because she's a single mom trying to get by and her son is not going to school. | ||
| It's not good to threaten her with jail time. | ||
| But sometimes people make decisions. | ||
| Yeah, sometimes people make decisions, like drastic decisions like that. | ||
| And maybe at the time they had a perspective that's different than the perspective that they have now. | ||
| It's called evolution. | ||
| I want everybody to have a clean slate. | ||
| Biden and Harris are in there now. | ||
| I think clean slate. | ||
| Forget about, but let's see what they can do. | ||
| See who the people they put into office, all the cabinet. | ||
| Let's give them a chance. | ||
| We want them to do well. | ||
| This is what was so fucked up about Trump being in office. | ||
| So many people hated him. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| So many people hated him. | ||
| They really would rather the country do bad under him. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Because if the country was killing it under him, he's like, Look, it's killing it. | |
| I'm the best. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I told you. | |
| Then everybody's like, fuck! | ||
| At least, maybe, please, even Trump supporters, go into this one with a different attitude. | ||
| Let's all together say, we want the best for America. | ||
| What's done is done. | ||
| The election's over. | ||
| Maybe you were a Tulsi Gabbard fan like myself. | ||
| Maybe you like Bernie Sanders like myself. | ||
| Maybe you like fucking Jim Bush. | ||
| Yang Gang. | ||
| I love Yang Gang. | ||
| I love Andrew Yang. | ||
| He's an awesome guy. | ||
| I love a lot of his ideas. | ||
| But for now, we know where it is. | ||
| It's Biden and Harris. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Let's want them to be the best. | |
| But them niggas mad, Joe. | ||
| Them motherfucking Trump-Trump-Trumpers. | ||
| You got different level Trumpers. | ||
| Well, there's a lot of people that think that so. | ||
| There's something mad as a motherfucker that don't want to hear shit, son. | ||
| Part of the problem is he's telling them that it's a rigged election. | ||
| He's telling them it's a rigged election. | ||
| That's what's so fucked up. | ||
| But part of the problem is all elections have some corruption. | ||
| They just fucking do. | ||
| They've been around forever. | ||
| But not enough for you to say, nigga, when you leaving, nigga? | ||
| I don't think there's any... | ||
| Did he keep his secrets and shit, Joe? | ||
| Well, Mike Baker, who used to be in the CIA, was on here. | ||
| Mike Baker or your Baker? | ||
| Mike. | ||
| His name is Mike Baker. | ||
| He was in the CIA and he came on the podcast recently. | ||
| He was telling me that even if they did overturn it, even if they did rather like find corruption, the amount of votes you're talking about in most of these states, it's not enough. | ||
| It would have to be crazy corruption. | ||
| Yeah, like he's talking about five or six people, bro. | ||
| And that's the petty shit? | ||
| No, no, it's not five or six people. | ||
| I think they uncovered two different things today in, I want to say it's Michigan, where they found a memory card that had more votes for Trump than Biden, but it was close. | ||
| It was like 1,000 for Biden and 1,000, a few hundred for Trump, like 400 or 500 for Trump. | ||
| Where did he get the memory card from, son? | ||
| I do not know. | ||
| Come on, Joe. | ||
| I think there's a lot of unorganization. | ||
| That nigga could have brought up any memory card. | ||
| Someone who's counting votes got the memory card from the machines. | ||
| Who told you that story? | ||
| This is in the news. | ||
| Which news outlet? | ||
| It was in three or four different ones that I saw. | ||
| And they all said the same thing? | ||
| Well, they all said that there was a memory card that was discovered and they showed the counts in the memory card. | ||
| But they've also found other ballots that didn't get counted yet. | ||
| There's just a lot of disarray. | ||
| You're dealing with human beings that are counting memory cards. | ||
| Millions of votes. | ||
| Millions in the percentage. | ||
| And they're counting a lot of them just paper. | ||
| They're getting mail and they're opening it up and they have to find out. | ||
| This is what I didn't understand. | ||
| This is what I didn't understand, Joe. | ||
| This was so funny. | ||
| It kind of like backfired, right? | ||
| That the mail-in votes is what killed Trump. | ||
| That's what they're saying. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| For the most part. | ||
| And the funny thing about it, Trump has the type of following that he literally could tell them to do anything they're going to do it. | ||
| He told motherfuckers not to mail in. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, he wanted to make a point, coming in person. | ||
| Well, this is the point, right? | ||
| Joe, answer this question. | ||
| How do you make that point? | ||
| Understand making that point when you're not in the middle of a fucking pandemic. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| That would have been a great argument in 16. Especially for old folks, right? | ||
| For anybody that wants to participate, but the only thing that would stop them is if they're going to go outside and risk their lives. | ||
| So you're not thinking to give that person the opportunity to be a part of it? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And that's the part that kind of fucked it up. | ||
| Well, I don't know if he definitely wanted people to vote in person, but did he ever encourage people to vote by mail as well? | ||
| No, it wasn't! | ||
| He was always saying that mail was going to get a fraud. | ||
| Son, this whole shit was crowdsizing. | ||
| I'm like, nigga, somebody, Secret Service, break the secret. | ||
| Tell this motherfucker that the corona is out here. | ||
| He caught it. | ||
| He knows it was out there. | ||
| This nigga caught it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And gave all the Secret Service it. | ||
| Give a lot of people it. | ||
|
unidentified
|
But they can't. | |
| Secret Service can't say nothing because they're Secret Service. | ||
| They got to keep it a secret. | ||
| I'm sure they're young and healthy too. | ||
| They probably shook it off pretty easy. | ||
| Decided people don't understand. | ||
| They probably got the same medicine he got, you know? | ||
| A lot of that medicine is called your immune system being up to par. | ||
| Everybody that's talking about this shit is the lazy route. | ||
| No one wants to say... | ||
| Just a little bit of that, but they also gave him a bunch of experimental shit. | ||
| They gave him this antibody blood transfusion medication. | ||
| They gave him... | ||
| What was it called? | ||
| Regeneron? | ||
| Is that what it's called, Jamie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
I think so. | |
| They gave him some other... | ||
| I don't know if it's experimental or if it's recently been released. | ||
| They gave him that medication. | ||
| They gave him a steroid. | ||
| They gave him a bunch of different things all at once. | ||
| So he got a cocktail shit that made him feel great. | ||
| I was gonna say, not only that, son, how much is that cocktail? | ||
| That's not no easy cocktail. | ||
| It's not cheap. | ||
| And he wants that to be able to be given to everybody. | ||
| But I don't know if that's feasible at the moment. | ||
| To make those doses. | ||
| Well, it's not just to make the money. | ||
| Just to make the doses. | ||
| Like, say if they have all that medication and all that blood antibody medication and all this different stuff, they're going to give him the steroids. | ||
| To make that for 300 million people, that's so many people. | ||
| So if everybody gets sick, you have a dose. | ||
| We have one dose for every human being in this country. | ||
| Even if you have one dose for half the people. | ||
| You could get it done if your money is right. | ||
| It's all of them. | ||
| You would need 300 million vials of this shit. | ||
| That's so much. | ||
| You're not going to need all of those. | ||
| And probably more than that because you're probably going to need multiple vials per person. | ||
| They wouldn't even make that number for everybody to get one. | ||
| They wouldn't make that number. | ||
| That number's going to be broken down by, okay, what's the criteria to get this? | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Well, also, it would be, how many people do we really want to get it to? | ||
| Because how many people are going to be sick at any one given time? | ||
| It's probably never going to be more than 25% of the population, even if it's high. | ||
| But even if it comes out, Joe, motherfuckers, I'm telling you, certain motherfuckers are not taking that vaccine for whatever reason. | ||
| Yeah, I think you're right. | ||
| The black community is fucked. | ||
| Niggas ain't fucked with no vaccine, too. | ||
| It's like an iPhone, son. | ||
| You need the third one. | ||
| No black person is going to take it. | ||
| I think there's a lot of people that are not going to take it, but I think what they think is herd immunity. | ||
| Once we get to 50% of the people that took it, the virus will probably die off. | ||
| I think it's going to be in that neighborhood of 50% of the people that had it. | ||
| If either 50% of the people either have had COVID or have the vaccine for COVID, they think we're going to hit herd immunity and mostly die off. | ||
| But it could always kick back in again. | ||
| That's what they're worried about, that it's going to be like the common cold or the flu every year. | ||
| Would you take a vaccine? | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| If it works, yeah. | ||
| If it's been proven that it works, and I talk to doctors and they explain what the science is and how it works, and then I talk to people that have taken it and they say, you know, what the side effects are. | ||
| Because with the COVID vaccine, I think the side effects are you feel like shit for a couple days. | ||
| Who can't deal with feeling like shit for a couple days? | ||
| How happy are you when you can't lose two days? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, I would definitely do it if I thought it was safe. | ||
| I don't know enough about it right now to say that I think, I mean, that was one of the things that Nicholas Christakis was talking about yesterday. | ||
| He was talking about the potential dangers for the vaccine. | ||
| And I appreciate that he brought that up because it's such a sensitive area for people. | ||
| They think that if you think there's a danger in any kind of vaccine, you're some sort of anti-vaxxer. | ||
| No, there's a potential for danger of any medication when you're dealing with mass numbers of human beings. | ||
| If you have 300 million people and you give them aspirin, I don't know what percentage, but some people are going to die from aspirin, or they're going to get really sick from aspirin. | ||
| It's the same with everything. | ||
| Substances you put in people's bodies, everybody reacts differently. | ||
| People die from fucking Brazil nuts. | ||
| Yeah, but them motherfuckers want to waste time with these home remedies and shit, man. | ||
| Them home remedies, I mean, they're cool for some people, but eventually, man, you're going to have to talk to somebody. | ||
| Yeah, for sure, if you've got a real disease. | ||
| The people that want to cure cancer by not going to a doctor are like, whoa. | ||
| They can fix it now. | ||
| There's a lot of cancers. | ||
| Not all of them, of course, but there's a lot of cancer. | ||
| You're way better off having cancer now with modern medicine than you were having it 15-20 years ago. | ||
| That said, all that remedy shit, the best remedy for all this, besides the medicine if you actually get sick, is to fucking take care of yourself. | ||
| That's what I'm hoping people get out of this. | ||
| More people take care of themselves. | ||
| It's easy. | ||
| It's convenient. | ||
| I don't understand how you can ignore that. | ||
| Because it's convenient. | ||
| As long as you're not sick, you don't think you're going to get sick. | ||
| You stay home. | ||
| If you don't have to go anywhere, you just stay home. | ||
| And a lot of people just... | ||
| They just stop exercising. | ||
| They stop eating well. | ||
| They stop drinking water. | ||
| And they fuck their body up. | ||
| And then if something does... | ||
| You don't realize how much of a difference it makes in being healthy and not being healthy when something hits you. | ||
| A virus hits you. | ||
| A cold hits you. | ||
| You see... | ||
| When I got shot, son. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| I had to get the fucking IV antibiotics, son. | ||
| Well, you guys get IVs all the time. | ||
| You're always doing vitamin IVs on tour, right? | ||
| Vitaflow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Vitaflow. | |
| It's a company. | ||
| That's such a good move. | ||
| It is. | ||
| You did it, too. | ||
| When we did that, that was the first time I'd ever done that. | ||
| Well, really? | ||
| Vitamin IV, yeah. | ||
| Maybe I'd done one once before then. | ||
| Yo, but you was on it hard, son. | ||
| Oh, I'm on it hard now. | ||
| Yo, you had everything open. | ||
| You was like, give me one right here. | ||
| You had half your ass out, son. | ||
| I'm like, what you got? | ||
| She gave me a B12 shot in my ass. | ||
| And I saw your ass. | ||
| I was sitting right there. | ||
| I was like, nigga, take that shit across the street. | ||
| He had his fucking stomach out and his ass out. | ||
| I was like, I know you're not. | ||
| Yeah, well, the glutathione was amazing. | ||
| That stuff is great. | ||
| The vitamin drip was amazing. | ||
| We started getting them every week. | ||
| We slacked off, though, once we got here to Texas. | ||
| We haven't been doing it in Texas. | ||
| Man, that motherfucker, I'm telling you about when I did Yellow Springs this summer, that was probably one of the things that made that experience so amazing is that we were living in our own bubble and playing by our own rules and everybody was having a good time and it was all productive. | ||
| Yeah, it worked. | ||
| It worked. | ||
| You guys put on a lot of shows. | ||
| Adult summer camps. | ||
| Yeah, it's beautiful. | ||
| It was like, the shows are one thing. | ||
| But the thing that was great for me was just the whole sense of community. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| We would have potlucks and shit, and then I would have all the housewives of Yellow Springs ascend. | ||
| Yo, dumb motherfuckers out there, dumb motherfucking Yellow Springs chicks, wives, they won't get upset with anything but a casserole dish, son. | ||
| Like, they was looking for a Rachel Ray Casual disc I had for like a week. | ||
| They were stalking where I was living and everything. | ||
| But the sense of community, man, it's like, in that area, it's one coffee shop, Dinos, everybody go there. | ||
| It's one grocery store. | ||
| It's just one of everything. | ||
| That's nice. | ||
| And it was so simple. | ||
| Well, that's better, really. | ||
| There's real good things about cities, but the thing that's missing is that camaraderie, that sense of community. | ||
| Nature. | ||
| City slickers. | ||
| They were calling me a city slicker. | ||
| I saw the videos of you and the river. | ||
| Yo, Joe. | ||
| It was the whitest, greatest adventure of the summer. | ||
| I... Became the river nigga. | ||
| That's the original name. | ||
| I'll tell you the truth, son. | ||
| You look so peaceful. | ||
| I am at peace, son. | ||
| Listen, Joe. | ||
|
unidentified
|
What does it say on the quote there? | |
| Forever mood. | ||
| River bitches love the river ninja. | ||
| The river ninja, they do, son. | ||
| Bitches love me out there, son. | ||
| All them earthy bitches that got quartz and rocks and shit, son. | ||
| Yo, I'm talking about bitches, farmers, market bitches out there like me. | ||
| I understand what you're saying. | ||
| They love me, like women with rescue dogs. | ||
| That's a great picture, man. | ||
| Jamie, get that- Look how peaceful I was, son. | ||
| I was a river nigga. | ||
| I had to change the name, Joe. | ||
| Jamie, get that picture framed. | ||
| I need that picture. | ||
| Let's get that picture printed on steel. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Get that. | |
| Yo, I had- Who took the photograph? | ||
| Federico. | ||
| Federico. | ||
| Did I tag him? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Where is Federico? | ||
| There he is. | ||
| Get a hold of Federico. | ||
| We need that picture in the studio. | ||
| Yo, he's such a talented fucking producer and everything, man. | ||
| Beautiful. | ||
| But that would be a great picture to frame in here. | ||
| Yo, I fell in love. | ||
| Joe, people think it's a joke. | ||
| It's nature. | ||
| Are you going to let me describe me? | ||
| Yeah, I'll let you. | ||
| First name I came up with, it was River Nigger, right? | ||
| And I like that for the streets, right? | ||
| But people's like, I don't know if we can put that on t-shirts. | ||
| They're looking at it from a marquee brandy point, right? | ||
| And I was like, okay, Ninja. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| But he's inspired by the River Nigga. | ||
| But Ninja's for TV. There's many layers to the story. | ||
| Many layers to it. | ||
| Do you fish? | ||
| I fish. | ||
| Did you go fishing at all when you guys were dying? | ||
| I didn't get a chance to go fishing there. | ||
| But this was me at a river in Georgia, son. | ||
| Changes your mind, right? | ||
| It's everything, son. | ||
| Changes your mind. | ||
| When you buy a waterfall, you're like, oh... | ||
| There's something about these natural things like mountains or ocean. | ||
| Nature, nigga. | ||
| Nature. | ||
| Nature free as shit, son. | ||
| Yep. | ||
| It's good for you. | ||
| Look at me, son. | ||
| Let me tell you. | ||
| I know exactly. | ||
| They said, when did I turn into a river, nigga? | ||
| Right? | ||
| They said, when did I turn? | ||
| When do I remember to change? | ||
| Right? | ||
| It was when... | ||
| Look at that waterfall, man. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Yo, let me tell you the story, son. | ||
| So, when we were out there... | ||
| Chappelle's wife used to make these events. | ||
| Hey, it's Family Walk Day. | ||
| I'm like, man, fuck that. | ||
| I'm from the streets. | ||
| I'm not doing all that stupid shit. | ||
| She had all these days, like, every day had a goddamn adventure or a start. | ||
| What's today? | ||
| You got to look at a little brochure and shit. | ||
| And then one day she did one and was kayaking, right? | ||
| And I went on this kayak, and it was me and my man Patrick. | ||
| He's in Yellow Spring. | ||
| He's a Yellow Spring native, whatever. | ||
| And we were going down the river, Mad River, I had a kayak. | ||
| He had a kayak. | ||
| We were smoking a joint. | ||
| And we just hear nature. | ||
| It's like... | ||
| Just straight nature, right? | ||
| And then he said, man, you know what this reminds me of? | ||
| He said, this reminds me of when I was younger, building ramps, jumping ramps on my bike, and me fishing for crawdads with my dad. | ||
| I was like, nigga, this remind me of looking for my dad. | ||
| His stories, the two stories were totally opposite. | ||
| It represented one thing for him, memories he had with his dad. | ||
| For me, it represented the memories I didn't have with my dad and the memories I wanted to create with my son. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| When I was out there, Joe, all that thing was like, I got to bring this little motherfucker to the river. | ||
| He's got to be out here. | ||
| He's got friends out there. | ||
| And my son came out there, and the summer was beautiful. | ||
| But one thing was missing, no matter how you're celebrating in life, right? | ||
| If you're not sharing with your family, it feels weird. | ||
| Yeah, for sure. | ||
| You know, it feels like, oh man, I don't even know if it's fair for me to have this much fun. | ||
| And although how great the summer was going, when he came out, he was hanging with me on the river and shit, man. | ||
| It was like the best shit ever. | ||
| Son, we were skipping. | ||
| Jamie, you know how to skip rocks? | ||
| Of course. | ||
| Do you know how to skip? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's in the wrist, right? | ||
| I was in the Boy Scouts. | ||
| Yo, don't say you're the Boy Scouts today, son. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Why? | |
| They might have played with your booty holes, son. | ||
| Yo, there's a lot of them, man. | ||
| Don't tell me. | ||
| Don't be proud of the Boy Scouts. | ||
| Pick another division, son, not the Boy Scouts. | ||
| Nothing ever happened to my booty hole. | ||
| I had a great time. | ||
| I hung out with a bunch of criminals. | ||
| That's what you do in the Boy Scouts. | ||
| We were skipping rocks. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I didn't know it was that much precision. | ||
| It depends on the rock. | ||
| Like, you really want a nice flat rock. | ||
| A nice flat rock. | ||
| You get a flat rock, you can do some wild shit. | ||
| When we were going out every day, Talib Kweli, right? | ||
| He thinks he's a river nigga, right? | ||
| He told us one day, I could skip any rock. | ||
| You know what type of... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Any rock. | |
| He said, no matter how big it is, I could skip any rock. | ||
| That doesn't seem likely. | ||
| That's the fucking Brooklyn cockiness he had, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It was just like... | ||
| It was like, the next time we went, he wants to challenge me in rock skipping again. | ||
| This time this motherfucker was pulling rocks out of his shorts. | ||
| He had rocks with him already. | ||
| He prepared. | ||
| Joe, he came with all perfect flat river rocks. | ||
| Oh, that's crazy. | ||
| He didn't bend over. | ||
| Is there a world championship of rock skipping? | ||
| It seems like people would take it super seriously. | ||
| I think it would. | ||
| I think it's something to think. | ||
| I'm pretty sure it's done somewhere. | ||
| I never thought about it to this moment, but I'm sure there's got to be a competition. | ||
| A rock-skipping competition. | ||
| And they got groupie bitches? | ||
| Like the girls who, it's off-season for bowling, so they go after rock skippers? | ||
| Yeah, we heard you had a 10-skipper last week. | ||
| A 10 skipper could get you a blowjob, son. | ||
| That's gonna get you some WAP. If you're looking for WAP, do a 10 skipper, son. | ||
| A 10 skipper? | ||
| You know what WAP is, right? | ||
| I do. | ||
| Who educated you to it? | ||
| Because I don't think, no disrespect to your hip-hop or whatever, someone introduced you to WAP. I don't know. | ||
| It might have been Jamie. | ||
| Was it you? | ||
| Could be. | ||
| Yeah, because of the Ben Shapiro video. | ||
| Oh, that's right. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Which was it? | ||
| Because Ben Shapiro was like, you know when people self-own, they don't realize they're self-owning? | ||
| Right. | ||
| When the song's about wet-ass pussy, he's like, well, that sounds like a gynecological condition. | ||
| I would tend to... | ||
| And people are like, what? | ||
| That's not the point, Ben. | ||
| I know the point is, but I understand that. | ||
| I understand his point. | ||
| That's an abnormal amount of moisture. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| To be able to come up with a whole song about it, it's like, it's a level... | ||
| What do you think would happen if you came out with a song called Hard-Ass Dick? | ||
| I want to do it. | ||
| Would not be received that well. | ||
| With as minimal controversy as Wet-Ass... | ||
| Certain songs gotta be answers. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Like answers to a song. | ||
| To wet ass pussies. | ||
| K. Michelle had a song, You Can't Change a Man. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And I flipped it and did a song called You Can't Raise a Bitch. | ||
| You Can't Save a Bitch. | ||
| That was the name of the song. | ||
| Can't Save a Bitch. | ||
| Do you remember when they used to have songs and then they would have answer songs? | ||
| There's been a bunch of those. | ||
| Someone would have a song and then someone would have a response song to that song. | ||
| Like Scrubs... | ||
| Yes! | ||
| They had Scrubs. | ||
| Then they had another one. | ||
| I can't remember, but I know you said that. | ||
| Wasn't I Saw You Standing in the Rain? | ||
| Wasn't there one of those? | ||
| Orange Juice Jones? | ||
| Wasn't there an answer song to that? | ||
| Orange Juice Jones. | ||
| If I know any answer to that, I just immediately told how old I am. | ||
| To know Orange Juice Jones and how cool he was. | ||
| Orange Juice Jones was the shit. | ||
| That song was the best at the time. | ||
| That was an original kind of song. | ||
| There never been a song that told the whole story of getting done wrong like that. | ||
| Especially it didn't tell in the rain. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Everybody knows that story. | ||
| But you followed this couple in the rain. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And then at the end, when he chopped up the credit cards. | ||
|
unidentified
|
He got back with revenge. | |
| Yeah. | ||
| He's like, go on, bitch. | ||
| Get out of here. | ||
| He had his credit cards and everything. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That was a song that made people happy. | ||
| Hey Joe, I came over here. | ||
| I'm not selling shit. | ||
| You got more stuff? | ||
| Yeah, look. | ||
| You remember this, right? | ||
| Remember my Black Ash, right? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Alright, here. | ||
| That's a re-up. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| We kept the other one in California because we weren't sure if we were going to be going back and forth. | ||
| Yeah, you got that one. | ||
| Look at this one right here. | ||
| There's some hoes in this house candle. | ||
| That's for a holiday, Joe. | ||
| It's a ho, ho, ho hose. | ||
| Not like H-O-E. There's some hoes in this house candle. | ||
| Yo, look at this one, though, Joe. | ||
| Because I fell in love with Yellow Spring. | ||
| That's one of my top sellers, Joe. | ||
| Oh, Yellow Spring candle. | ||
| From the streets to the creeks. | ||
| From the hoods to the woods. | ||
| From whores to oars. | ||
| From Adidas to divas, son. | ||
| I got a whole story, boom. | ||
| And this for the white chicks out there, because I got a lot of white bitches out there now. | ||
| Okay, Karen Candle. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Mm-hmm. | |
| Imagine if your name was Karen and you were fine for like 30 years. | ||
| Joe, there's more! | ||
| Look at this, son. | ||
| That's a hemp bag, son. | ||
| I feel like all of a sudden we turn into the home shopping network. | ||
| That's what I wanted to avoid, Joe, but at the same time, I opened up an online store, son, and it's doing well. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Do you have a website that we could just put up on screen instead of bringing all these objects out one after another? | ||
| Joe, you call it... | ||
| No, listen. | ||
| Oh, you have like a little thing. | ||
| You scan with the phone. | ||
| You call them objects. | ||
| I don't call it objects. | ||
| Products? | ||
| Man, give me my candle back, man. | ||
| What is it if it's not a product? | ||
| No, just if you don't want them, Joe, give them back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I do. | |
| You gonna use them? | ||
| I'll definitely use them. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I like candles. | ||
| Those are good, too. | ||
| And they're soy, too. | ||
| They're soy? | ||
| Yeah, and they're hand-poured in the USA. You can have them back. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I don't do anything with soy. | |
| It's a candle, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Don't disrespect that. | ||
| People want that. | ||
| People get mad at soy. | ||
| Soy is like a political fruit or a vegetable. | ||
| Is it? | ||
| Yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| People call you a soy boy. | ||
| If you're a Republican, people call weak men soy boys. | ||
| It's an insult. | ||
| I never knew that. | ||
| Soy is one of the rare foods that's actually attached to being a bitch. | ||
| That's a pussy food? | ||
| Yeah, like, if you're a guy who's really into soy, and this is not my perspective, this is just, I just think it's a fucking, it's a plant. | ||
| It doesn't matter to me. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Isn't that edamame? | ||
| Isn't that soy? | ||
| Like, when you have edamame at a Japanese restaurant, isn't it soy? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is that the case, Jamie? | ||
| The first time I ever tried edamame, I was so ghetto. | ||
| Did you eat the whole thing? | ||
| Yeah, and I was like, my throat was killing me, son. | ||
| The best part is the outside. | ||
| I didn't know anything about it, goddamn. | ||
| They put all the delicious salt and everything on the outside. | ||
| The sea salt, yeah, some sea salt. | ||
| If you had a bowl of just edamame... | ||
| It takes away from it. | ||
| You wouldn't even want it. | ||
| It's the whole process. | ||
| It's the whole process of ripping a sleeve. | ||
| Edamame beans are whole, immature soybeans, sometimes referred to as vegetable-type soybeans. | ||
| They're green and different color from regular soybeans, which are typically light brown, tan, or beige. | ||
| Yeah, so it's the soy. | ||
| I like it a moment. | ||
| I don't mind soy, but a lot of people think of soy as being like a bitch food. | ||
| I never knew that. | ||
| I thought it was a healthy... | ||
| I mean, I knew it was not the most masculine food, but I thought it was like you stepped your game up. | ||
| When you enter the edamame lane, it's like, oh shit, this motherfucker eat edamame now. | ||
| I think there's a reason. | ||
| I think soy lowers your testosterone. | ||
| I think there's like estrogen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Soy isoflavones can produce estrogen-like activity in the body, mimicking the effects of natural estrogen. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But I think you have to... | ||
| You can grow titties off of soy? | ||
| Not quite, but it might feminize you. | ||
| It might feminize you. | ||
| Fuck sorry, man. | ||
| Plants affect your hormone production. | ||
| Do you know they actually develop testosterone, like synthetic testosterone, from wild yams? | ||
| Like plants, yeah. | ||
| From wild yams? | ||
| Wild yams, yeah. | ||
| That's how they develop some artificial testosterone or exogenous testosterone. | ||
| I would think that that would be part of the whole Cialis and Blue pill era, too. | ||
| That's a different thing, though. | ||
| That's just blood flow. | ||
| That's nitrous oxide. | ||
| So why is nobody promoting wild yams? | ||
| Not nitrous oxide. | ||
| Nitrous... | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Nitric. | ||
| Nitric oxide. | ||
| That's like NO explode, all those pump things you do when you want to get jacked. | ||
| We're lifting weights. | ||
| A lot of those supplements, they mimic the same sort of effect, just not to the same degree as finasteride, like Viagra and Cialis and shit like that. | ||
| But they don't make you have more testosterone. | ||
| With these, like soybeans, and I think really for it to affect your hormones, I think it's just like it can, it's a possibility chemically, but in order to actually do it, I think you'd have to eat some fucking preposterous number of soybeans. | ||
| I don't think it's something people really have to worry about. | ||
| No, I don't think it's anything anybody really has to worry about. | ||
| But I think it's just a stereotype. | ||
| For me, I didn't even know the stereotype. | ||
| Yeah, they call people soy boys. | ||
| I didn't know that. | ||
| I thought it was like you're evolving as a foodie. | ||
| You know, like the first time I was like, oh shit, y'all niggas don't know about the edamamis. | ||
| Because I was introducing somebody else to it, but I didn't know that it symbolized being a pussy. | ||
| It doesn't. | ||
| It's silly. | ||
| People are silly. | ||
| It tastes good. | ||
| Atomame tastes good. | ||
| If they do it right, put a little chili powder and salt on the outside. | ||
| I like it with just sea salt. | ||
| I like it sea salt too. | ||
| I'm working at a stadium, Joe. | ||
| Are you really? | ||
| What are you doing? | ||
| RFK Stadium. | ||
| Where's that? | ||
| In Washington, D.C. When are you doing that? | ||
| Thanksgiving weekend. | ||
| Oh, shit. | ||
| It's not the stadium. | ||
| It's the parking lot, right? | ||
| You're doing like an outdoor show. | ||
| I'm doing an outdoor show. | ||
| Just like the ones that Bert's been doing. | ||
| Yeah, but not at that level. | ||
| Yeah, I talked to Bert about that. | ||
| Shout out to Bert and shout out to the cab. | ||
| Bert is the guy who started it all off. | ||
| People aren't giving him enough credit. | ||
| He's the OG of drive-thru shows. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Bert was the guy. | ||
| It fit right into his whole shit. | ||
| He never stopped touring. | ||
| Burt toured through the entire pandemic doing drive-throughs. | ||
| And I was saying to myself, is this like a throwback Thursday or whatever? | ||
| He was like this. | ||
| And then the name of, what was the name of the tour? | ||
| Hot Summer Nights. | ||
| I'm like, this motherfucker, but... | ||
| He created a bubble and he fucking did it. | ||
| Created a bubble, stayed drunk the entire summer. | ||
| And enjoyed it. | ||
| Had a good time. | ||
| I'm doing RFK Stadium. | ||
| It's the original stadium for the Washington Redskins. | ||
| The Washington Redskins used to do that. | ||
| Beautiful. | ||
| But for nine years, that was my traditional show at the DC Improv. | ||
| I would do Thanksgiving weekend. | ||
| It was a good time for me because I got to see my family. | ||
| I got to work. | ||
| That's a great club too. | ||
| It's a great club. | ||
| That DC Improv is one of the 10 greatest clubs in the country. | ||
| And it's been probably the most consistent for 25 years. | ||
| So good. | ||
| It's just the perfect size. | ||
| Perfect. | ||
| Everything about it's perfect. | ||
| And they get every year solid. | ||
| I don't even know that a comic can do bad in terms of ticket sales there. | ||
| Everybody seems to do well, at least the lineup that they have. | ||
| They book good lineups. | ||
| When a club's got that much prestige, they've been around that. | ||
| There's certain clubs like Comedy Works where people just trust them. | ||
| There's a bunch. | ||
| Helium in Philly. | ||
| People just trust them. | ||
| It's going to be a good show. | ||
| They're not going to book any scrubs. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And that's how the DC Improv has felt. | ||
| They have developed a community. | ||
| And I, for nine years, I saw my son, from the first time I took him up, it was just him in my arms. | ||
| And then the next time, he was kind of like crawling. | ||
| The next time he was walking, then he walked to his stage. | ||
| I had like four years of pictures of his growth there. | ||
| And then because of the pandemic, I thought the weekend was gone. | ||
| I'm like, damn, that blows a tradition. | ||
| And then they made a pivot from the DC Improv. | ||
| To partnering up with DC Pull Up or whatever it is. | ||
| And they're doing the fucking outside shit. | ||
| That's beautiful. | ||
| I like that people are adapting. | ||
| That's one of the things you were saying. | ||
| Like, you started this business and Bert started doing things outside and Tom Segura's doing, like, these pay-per-view shows. | ||
| Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer are doing these... | ||
| And sometimes Christina, they switch up back and forth. | ||
| They're doing these... | ||
| Crazy live shows. | ||
| I saw. | ||
| The shit that he sent me. | ||
| I mean, I'll show it to you after the show. | ||
| The things that they can... | ||
| See, during these live shows, it's 100% uncensored because it's pay-per-view. | ||
| So they don't have to worry about YouTube. | ||
| They don't have to worry about... | ||
| It's whatever. | ||
| They are showing the most fucked up videos I have ever seen in my life. | ||
| In my life. | ||
| Really? | ||
| In my life. | ||
| He sent me three things yesterday that changed my idea of what's possible. | ||
| Oh my god. | ||
| You gonna do it? | ||
| Do one of his shows? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I would certainly do it if we were in town together. | ||
| Tom's talking about moving here. | ||
| Everybody niggas moving out here. | ||
| You got the whole squad coming back here. | ||
| We're gonna open up a club here. | ||
| I'm down, son. | ||
| Come on down. | ||
| It's better here. | ||
| You don't have to pay taxes for the state. | ||
| People are nicer. | ||
| The barbecue's off the hook. | ||
| On the streets, they said Joe ain't stupid, son. | ||
| The streets said that nigga said I'm getting the fuck up out of here, son. | ||
| Well, I saw the writing on the wall. | ||
| I'm like, they're not going to open up the clubs. | ||
| If you don't have a comedy club open, I can't stay. | ||
| If the comedy store was open, there would be no reason for me to leave L.A. I know. | ||
| But then on the flip of that, Just because it's not open, there's no reason for you to be in LA. Be that. | ||
| You can create it. | ||
| Well, the only time I could create it, though, is in an absence of the club. | ||
| Because I wouldn't ask people, hey, leave LA. The comedy store is hopping and killing. | ||
| Come to Austin. | ||
| But when you can't open, they can't. | ||
| They're not allowing them to open. | ||
| And it could be years. | ||
| Who the fuck knows now? | ||
| I know. | ||
| Here we are now, eight months in. | ||
| We thought it was two weeks. | ||
| Remember when you thought it was two weeks? | ||
| But then again, even moving forward, Joe, you've got to remove yourself from the possibility of somebody taking something away from you. | ||
| Like that. | ||
| The way you're thinking and the way Dave has thought throughout this summer is like, yo, we really can make this shit. | ||
| Also, what we were saying before, that we were all connected to Hollywood because we thought we needed Hollywood in order to get us on television or to pay our bills. | ||
| We needed to get hired. | ||
| And then once podcasting came along, I think people realized, no, you don't. | ||
| You just need your friends. | ||
| And you have a bunch of funny friends, and everybody's tight, and everybody tells people, hey, go see Theo Vaughn's at this place. | ||
| Go see this guy. | ||
| Go see that guy. | ||
| And we all get along together. | ||
| We don't need anybody else. | ||
| That's the toughest part. | ||
| What I've noticed in this podcast world, which is predominantly white, that's the truth of it, you know what I'm saying? | ||
| It's like, there's a lot more white podcasts. | ||
| When it comes to that, when you say like the friendship part and making money, they really... | ||
| About that life. | ||
| They really do it. | ||
| They really do it. | ||
| They don't talk about it. | ||
| Every one of the guys that I've done, you know, from Delia, from Bobby, from the whole crew, it's never no, oh man, it's like, let's do it. | ||
| Everybody helps everybody. | ||
| Everybody's friendly. | ||
| And there's only a few people in the podcast world that don't have friends. | ||
| They're weirdos. | ||
| Who are they? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| They're out in the fringes. | ||
| They gotta have names. | ||
| They're out in the fringes. | ||
| All right. | ||
| Those poor people. | ||
| A lot of people go into things with a legacy attitude. | ||
| And the legacy attitude that you know from radio is you're competing against the other people that are doing the same thing. | ||
| But the podcast world is not like that. | ||
| But some people are like that. | ||
| Some people will complain if a guest is on this podcast and then on their podcast. | ||
| They'll complain. | ||
| You were just on that podcast. | ||
| Now it's going to take away from people listening to me. | ||
| Nigga, I got more shit to talk about! | ||
| You ain't got no life! | ||
| Yo, I never understood that. | ||
| I'm like, nigga, every podcast I go on, it's talking about... | ||
| Something else. | ||
| Not only that, but if you go on a podcast and they like you, if you go on a podcast and they like you, and then I hear now you're going to go on Bobby's podcast, I'm going to watch you on that podcast too. | ||
| Because it's not like I do one podcast and now I'm out of time. | ||
| I have more time. | ||
| You're going to have another week is going to go by where you want something to listen to. | ||
| And then more people are going to listen to you on Bobby's if they heard you on somebody else's. | ||
| And here's the thing, Joe. | ||
| If you're interested enough for motherfuckers wanting to listen to you, that's it. | ||
| If you could do it. | ||
| The toughest part, this week literally is, I think, the anniversary of the first time I've ever was on this show. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Really? | |
| I think it's this week. | ||
| Jamie's chugging. | ||
| I heard those fingers, son. | ||
| My producers don't do that. | ||
| Them bitches be looking at me right in my face. | ||
| I'll be trying to tell you. | ||
| It is, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, I guess. | |
| You were on before that, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
February 19th. | |
| No, you were on before that one. | ||
| Before that one? | ||
| No, this is the first one we talked about the RZA shit. | ||
| That was that one. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That was a year ago this week. | |
| Yeah, that's when... | ||
|
unidentified
|
November 12th. | |
| Yeah, but you've been on longer. | ||
| Yeah, but I'm just saying... | ||
| From the last one. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Oh, yes. | ||
| So, I know you guys want to break down the story. | ||
| It's not that sentimental, but I was just saying, I remember the dates. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| No, I get it. | ||
| It was that... | ||
| And it's been, like, it's been, I've been doing it for a year, and it's been, um, it's been interesting. | ||
| It happens, right? | ||
| It gets, it picks up steam, it picks up momentum. | ||
| I see on your Instagram stories, you're putting, or your Instagram rather, you're putting clips up. | ||
| The little assets and shit. | ||
| Get people excited. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Yeah, but if, yo, you, like, everything you said, it was like, once I got under the mold, like, I'm like, ah, This has to be the greatest episode. | ||
| I'm like, wait a minute. | ||
| And I start looking at the numbers of the most successful people in the podcast world. | ||
| This is like episode 1582. That's a lot. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| I'm struggling for like, yeah, this is the 30-episode anniversary. | ||
| Well, you know how Goggins tells everybody he used to be fat? | ||
| I tell everybody, go to episode one. | ||
| It's fucking terrible. | ||
| It's terrible. | ||
| We didn't even think it was a podcast. | ||
| That's how terrible it was. | ||
| We didn't know what it was, but you did it. | ||
| We were doing it with just answering questions off of Twitter and being stupid while we were high. | ||
| No one thought it was ever going to be something that millions of people listened to. | ||
| So when we started it out, there was no expectations. | ||
| Now people have expectations. | ||
| Now you realize how much money is in it. | ||
| You see all these people that get big deals. | ||
| You see all these people that are number one on iTunes and number two on fucking Spotify. | ||
| And you go, fuck. | ||
| There's a lot going on. | ||
| This is a whole network that you don't need a lot to get into. | ||
| Man, the number one thing you have to do, and I kept tricking myself when we had talked about it, was talking. | ||
| Can you talk? | ||
| That's ridiculous that you don't think that you can talk. | ||
| It's one of the most funny things I've ever heard. | ||
| Son, I mean, with no response, just like me talking to myself. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That's easy. | |
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| It's like, you know, I got a better chance of making a thousand people laugh than one person. | ||
| True. | ||
| You know? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But it's been a great ride, man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| But dude, Deary over there, Julius. | ||
| You know who's the best at just talking? | ||
| Bill Burr. | ||
| That motherfucker. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I know. | |
| Just, he never has a dead moment. | ||
| He will start on the subject and like, you know, and then you know what they want to fucking do? | ||
| And then he thinks he does an hour later. | ||
| He was one of the guys that had it. | ||
| I was like... | ||
| What would your style be more like? | ||
| I just like, I don't want to fucking talk to nobody. | ||
| I just want to say what I want to fucking say and fuck you. | ||
| And then it was like the Monday rant or something. | ||
| Yeah, Monday morning podcast. | ||
| Monday morning podcast. | ||
| And it was just like, I was like, this motherfucker can talk shit for whatever. | ||
| It's like, whatever. | ||
| It's like a dude that goes, he like wins all the bar fight conversations. | ||
| And it's the perfect platform for that. | ||
| Oh, for Bill. | ||
| It's the perfect platform. | ||
| One of the things he used to do is he used to use his cell phone. | ||
| And this is when, God, the early days of the Monday Morning Podcast. | ||
| I don't know when it started. | ||
| I bet you it had to be around 2006, 7, 8, somewhere around there. | ||
| It could be. | ||
| I don't remember. | ||
| But what I do remember is that he did a bunch of them where he left voicemails. | ||
| So he would call himself or call a service and leave a voicemail. | ||
| Really? | ||
| So he'd be sitting there at the airport talking shit about some dude's haircut. | ||
| Oh yeah, I remember those. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| And then he had some... | ||
| It was just him really ranting, just fucking with people. | ||
| The audio quality was fucking terrible. | ||
| Because he was literally talking into an old phone at the airport and then leaving a message somewhere. | ||
| And that message became the podcast. | ||
| And you know what? | ||
| But it was hilarious. | ||
| It didn't even matter the quality of the sound. | ||
| The idea was funny. | ||
| Just like when I told you that time when Jamie was supposed to help me produce and then he fucking reneged on me. | ||
| Right? | ||
| He got real mad at me, whatever. | ||
| I remember it like it was yesterday. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| I don't know how those two are connected. | ||
| But Bill Burr, when he first started out, that was literally the perfect platform for him. | ||
| In podcasting. | ||
| Like, he's good at interviewing people. | ||
| I've been on his show before. | ||
| Other people have been on his show before. | ||
| He'll sit and talk to people. | ||
| He's fine at it. | ||
| But as far as, like, ranting, he's the best. | ||
| Yeah, that comes from an angry place. | ||
| Yeah, but he's also been doing it the longest. | ||
| You gotta think how many fucking years he's been doing that podcast where he just... | ||
| That muscle is flexed. | ||
| That muscle is tight. | ||
| He doesn't need, like... | ||
| You can form an opinion, but he doesn't need the response. | ||
| Most people need the response and the feedback. | ||
| How else do you know if you're doing good or not? | ||
| Yeah, he doesn't think about that. | ||
| He's like, and another thing! | ||
| I was watching Seth Meyers the other night, and he was doing this monologue or whatever, and it was going okay. | ||
| And then he... | ||
| Some people in the background were laughing, and you could just see the posture and everything change. | ||
| Once he got a couple of people laughing, it was like, that's important. | ||
| I heard his Netflix specials good. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I saw a clip on it, and it did not look bad. | ||
| It did not look bad. | ||
| Is this recent? | ||
| Because I know he had one. | ||
| I want to say his Netflix special was at least a year ago, because it was pre-pandemic for sure. | ||
| I didn't see the entire thing. | ||
| And I saw some clips, and I was like, this is good delivery. | ||
| It's good writing. | ||
| And I don't know that Seth Meyers really had a long background in stand-up, did he? | ||
| No. | ||
| He had a background doing that show, doing the monologue for the show. | ||
| I think the stand-up was very good. | ||
| I thought it was solid. | ||
| Did you ever see it, Jamie? | ||
| It's solid! | ||
| You alright? | ||
| Jesus. | ||
| It's not a good time to be coughing. | ||
| It was very good. | ||
| What I saw, the clips. | ||
| I didn't watch the whole thing. | ||
| But most of the guys, when they... | ||
| Do SNL? But you know there's some people that have done talk shows and then tried to do a stand-up special and they don't really have the chops for it. | ||
| But that didn't seem like that with him. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| He seemed very relaxed. | ||
| He probably was in the beast for a while. | ||
| Well, he probably did the right thing, too. | ||
| He probably hired a bunch of writers. | ||
| I mean, I didn't see all of it. | ||
| Maybe the part that I saw was the only funny thing. | ||
| I really have no idea. | ||
| A lot of those guys, I guess to be buried into that show like that, don't really have time to go out and work out. | ||
| No, it's hard. | ||
| But if you could do it, like Jimmy Kimmel could do stand-up, for sure. | ||
| 100%. | ||
| If Jimmy Kimmel wanted to do stand-up, 100% he could do it. | ||
| What do you think about Jim Carrey on SNL as Biden? | ||
| I didn't watch it. | ||
| None of it? | ||
| Nope. | ||
| Not one piece of it? | ||
| Not a piece. | ||
|
unidentified
|
God! | |
| Damn, son! | ||
| I got shit to do. | ||
| If I'm gonna watch something, I generally, when I get home, I like to watch like... | ||
| Things that have nothing to do with what's going on right now. | ||
| By the end of the day, I don't... | ||
| Oh, you like documentaries and shit like that. | ||
| New Netflix special lets you skip the Trump jokes. | ||
| Oh, there's a button you can skip Trump jokes? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, you can skip the intro on Netflix. | |
| You can skip the chunk of stuff. | ||
| But this is him talking to people, so he's interviewing people. | ||
|
unidentified
|
This is just an interview about it. | |
| Oh, interview about it. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Oh, that's funny. | ||
| Yeah, well, that's a good move because people are tired of Trump jokes, you know? | ||
| That's one of those subjects where people are like, enough already. | ||
| Man, I've been tired of him, and now I'm like... | ||
| They're coming back around? | ||
| To be frustrated. | ||
| To be frustrated when a dude is on his way out, you know, it doesn't make no sense. | ||
| It's like he is still getting to you. | ||
| You know, it's just a matter of time. | ||
| If you want to say the people, the voice of the peoples was heard, it was a close situation, but it is what it is and he's gone. | ||
| Why are you still mad? | ||
| People have some legitimate gripes and I understand where they're coming from, but my perspective is it's not changing anything and it's not doing you any good. | ||
| To still be holding on. | ||
| If you are anti-Trump, Biden's... | ||
| I mean, I don't think... | ||
| It's 99% official, right? | ||
| I mean, they just haven't said it yet. | ||
| And when they say it, then he will become president. | ||
| And then Kamala Harris will be the new vice president. | ||
| So... | ||
| Concentrate on good things now. | ||
| It's over. | ||
| Right. | ||
| But people are so obsessed. | ||
| I heard the fuckers the other day. | ||
| I might have said this earlier. | ||
| Look at Mike Pence and I'm having a meeting with no mask. | ||
| Man, okay. | ||
| Why you still keep getting mad because this motherfucker don't have a mask on. | ||
| It's got to be something else to talk about, son. | ||
| But they want to talk about negative things. | ||
| That's the thing. | ||
| Some people get addicted to talking about negative things, and they can't regroup even after a victory and now focus on positive things. | ||
| They want to continue to focus on negative things. | ||
| And I can see their perspective, too, especially with all these crazy tweets like, I won that election. | ||
| You know, it's all fraud. | ||
| It's all this. | ||
| It's all that. | ||
| Man, if you've got some real claims, and I don't know what the claims are, I haven't really honestly investigated them, but if you've got some real claims, you gotta present the evidence, and then, once you present the evidence, you say all the stuff like, I got robbed, I really want it. | ||
| If you want to be in a position where you're respected, If you're the president of the United States, this isn't a regular guy. | ||
| It's not like if you were involved in some ridiculous, like, small neighborhood election and you were joking around on Twitter, I won that fucking election! | ||
| That's to be expected. | ||
| But when someone's in a position where they're in charge of the nuclear football... | ||
| They literally are the commander-in-chief of the greatest army the world's ever known. | ||
| And they're firing motherfuckers? | ||
| And you're saying shit like that and firing people that don't agree with it? | ||
| Yeah, firing motherfuckers that like... | ||
| I know these other places like, boy, this would be a great time for a fucking terrorist attack right now. | ||
| Well, one of the guys he fired, what the guy said was he didn't believe there was widespread voter fraud. | ||
| He's like, you're fired. | ||
| If you don't believe that, you're fired. | ||
| This is like a madman. | ||
| The interesting part for me is like, You trying to switch the thoughts of a person that is a huge Trump fan is a waste of time. | ||
| The only thing you're going to be is frustrated. | ||
| See, here's the thing though. | ||
| I don't know, and this is where it's really important. | ||
| I don't know exactly how the election went down in terms of like, was there like 0.01% fraud? | ||
| Was there 0.5% fraud? | ||
| How much fraud was there? | ||
| We gotta assume that when there's people counting stuff, there's some fuckery going on. | ||
| Yeah, but the fuckery that's been reported, it's been like still no more than like 40 people, bro. | ||
| And then the only other problem is that it's all done through these machines, right? | ||
| And then there's been all these conspiracy theories about machines that were supposed to have been giving the votes to Trump, gave those votes to Biden. | ||
| Now, I could repeat those things, but I don't know if they're true. | ||
| But what I do know is... | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| I do know, but I know Georgia... | ||
| I know them motherfuckers pulled all them envelopes up to the building and they cut them open and they took them hand by hand. | ||
| They did them hand by hand. | ||
| Yo, those... | ||
| Those ones that were recounts or whatever, those... | ||
| You can't... | ||
| It's no machine. | ||
| It's hand by hand. | ||
| Right. | ||
| It's fucking probably... | ||
| And how does that work? | ||
| Does someone watch while they do it? | ||
| Like, do they have a supervisor? | ||
| Because I would imagine you would want to have, like, almost, like, two people watch while one person does it, which is so ridiculous. | ||
| But it seems like you kind of... | ||
| If you don't trust people... | ||
| I know. | ||
| If you don't trust people... | ||
| You kind of have to have someone watching it. | ||
| That's part of the argument that Trump's administration was saying too, was that there were certain counts that they weren't allowed to observe. | ||
| They had to be really far away and they couldn't actually see. | ||
| That sounds like people that like soybeans, son. | ||
| That's a very soy boy attitude. | ||
| But what if they're telling the truth? | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| I don't know, and you don't know either. | ||
| So if they were telling the truth and people were counting votes incorrectly or... | ||
| They finally know evidence of that. | ||
| I don't think they have either. | ||
| Every time that they came out with all these losses and they're dropping them, dropping them because there's no evidence of it. | ||
| He's probably made, he's had to have made every argument he can make. | ||
| No, listen, I agree with you. | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| There's no evidence that they can present that's going to show people right now that there was so much voter fraud that they got to return everything and start all over or they got to give it to Trump. | ||
| I agree with you. | ||
| I think this is what all these experts are saying. | ||
| They're all saying that even if there was voter fraud it wasn't enough to tilt the election one way or another. | ||
| But I don't know how these machines work. | ||
| So if I'm even commenting on it, if I'm saying they couldn't have done it, that's ridiculous. | ||
| I'm saying they must have done it. | ||
| That's just as ridiculous. | ||
| I really don't know. | ||
| That's like... | ||
| When you're talking about voting, you're talking about how many... | ||
| Millions of people are voting and all this information is coming in and they gotta sort it out. | ||
| You're gonna have some mistakes. | ||
| There's no way around it. | ||
| But the question is, does it overall balance out? | ||
| Or are the mistakes all for one side? | ||
| If you find out the mistakes are all for Biden, then you're gonna go, huh. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Well, who owns the company that makes the machines? | ||
| And then how are they financed? | ||
| And who programmed that? | ||
| And how are they programmed? | ||
| Is it possible to fuck with the data? | ||
| It is possible. | ||
| Can you show me how to do it? | ||
| You can do it? | ||
| But so... | ||
| Saying anything about the vote, everybody wants to know exactly what happened. | ||
| I think there's very few people that know exactly what happened. | ||
| I know the machines and all that type of shit, but when they take the machines away and they say, okay, we're counting these hand by hand, the results of that have to be official. | ||
| Yeah, well, they definitely should be. | ||
| I understand the machines, but they was like, these mail-in motherfuckers, they had to fucking count every vote. | ||
| Yeah, it's a matter of how they're recording it, right? | ||
| You would want to make sure that everybody recorded it accurately. | ||
| I don't know how they do it. | ||
| But I would imagine that when I was talking to a guy like Mike Baker, and he was saying that even if there was fraud, there's not enough fraud to overturn it. | ||
| I would imagine he knows some things. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I don't. | ||
| I'm a moron. | ||
| So, me talking about he won, we all do that. | ||
| You know, we talk about he won, she won, and there's no way there was fraud, or it was definitely fraud, or I think Trump won by a landslide. | ||
| Like, people get, they get real connected, they get real connected to who's winning or losing this election, and I get it. | ||
| Man, I'm gonna miss Donald Trump, son. | ||
| He's not going anywhere, man. | ||
| TV? Man, I'm gonna miss him on TV. This motherfucker's TV persona is fucking... | ||
| You know what sucks? | ||
| What sucks that it's even... | ||
| His TV persona is like... | ||
| He's a TV motherfucker. | ||
| It sucks that it's even possible that someone could monkey with an election to the point where you change the outcome. | ||
| It sucks that that's even a thought that we could get into our head. | ||
| That's one of the crazy things about people. | ||
| We're so nuts that if we believe in a side, people that are good people will do some shady shit to have their candidate win. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| That's politics. | ||
| We're so crazy. | ||
| That's politics. | ||
| Anything goes. | ||
| Anything goes. | ||
| So what bothers me, and I do think that Biden won the election, and I do think... | ||
| I mean, I think there's probably some shenanigans, but I think the result is most likely correct. | ||
| But it bothers me that there's even a question. | ||
| It bothers me that anyone would ever think that anyone could... | ||
| But I think that there's Republicans that think Democrats could do it, and I think there's Democrats that think Republicans can do it. | ||
| And I think it's... | ||
| It's going to be real hard to 100% trust the election. | ||
| That's one of the things that's kind of dangerous about someone going after it. | ||
| This election is rigged. | ||
| This election is rigged. | ||
| When Trump is doing that, he's encouraging people. | ||
| Maybe that's a good thing if they are rigged. | ||
| Because maybe they're going to be able to figure out how to stop that from happening in the future. | ||
| Or maybe it's going to erode people's confidence in the elections. | ||
| And the more he does it, the more it erodes. | ||
| And the more it gets dangerous. | ||
| There's a real argument for that, too. | ||
| But, listen, again, I don't know what the fuck I'm talking about. | ||
| Man, it's just... | ||
| I know, it's nuts. | ||
| It's nuts that anybody would ever think there'd be any voter fraud on either side. | ||
| But we know that people have done it. | ||
| Like, that's apparently how they got JFK in. | ||
| Wasn't there like some crazy conspiracy about the mob rigged votes for JFK and that's how he became... | ||
| Wasn't that a thing, Jamie? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Has that ever been proven? | ||
| I've heard talks about recently that they were in such odds with each other that they would never have helped him. | ||
| I think he was really at odds with them afterwards because he didn't... | ||
| The thought was that was one of the reasons why he was assassinated. | ||
| That he kind of doubled back on his agreement with the mob. | ||
| The explanation I heard, they were just helping local politicians. | ||
| Oh, he didn't trade his streets! | ||
| Well, his family were drug runners. | ||
| The Kennedys were moonshiners. | ||
| They made their money selling bootleg liquor during the time where it was illegal. | ||
| They were basically drug dealers. | ||
| And then they became this gigantic political dynasty. | ||
| They were the Trump family. | ||
| No, not the Trump family, but they were motherfuckers. | ||
| They were more gangster than the Trump family, really, because their literal background was in drug running. | ||
| Like, bootleg liquor, like moonshot, is drugs. | ||
| That's drug running. | ||
| You just don't think of it now because alcohol is legal. | ||
| They were drug runners! | ||
| And who had the shit? | ||
| Connected to the mob! | ||
| And they were connected to the mob. | ||
| Like, you don't think they fucked with some numbers? | ||
| You don't think there was some corruption? | ||
| Who has the fucking money? | ||
| I think there's an assumption, too, that both sides are going to try to do it. | ||
| I mean, that was Watergate, right? | ||
| The results of this election, man, it's going to be interesting to see, can Biden work with two parties, both parties? | ||
| I hope so. | ||
| I hope they prove, like, the polarization of people that are opposed to Trump being in office, and now they're not Republicans and Democrats. | ||
| I hope they work together. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| That's what I hope. | ||
| That's what I hope. | ||
| I hope they work together. | ||
| Do it fast. | ||
| Biden has got, like, a lot of time. | ||
| You got to get used to President Kamala. | ||
| That's what you got to get used to. | ||
| I said it, man. | ||
| She's going to be the first president. | ||
| I said it. | ||
| That's the position. | ||
| I don't see how he can do eight years. | ||
| So what if the economy is going strong in four? | ||
| I think four he's going to keep it moving, man. | ||
| Who knows, man? | ||
| It's a setup. | ||
| I said it on stage. | ||
| I said, get ready for your first female black president because this is the setup for her. | ||
| She certainly could win. | ||
| She certainly could take over too if he dies or if he can't medically continue anymore. | ||
| But here's another thing you gotta think of. | ||
| They're doing shit to people They're doing some wild shit in terms of medicine and regenerative medicine and stem cells. | ||
| They just hook him up to stem cells every day and shoot him up with NAD and vitamin fees and steroids and growth hormone. | ||
| You never know. | ||
| They might keep that motherfucker around for a long time. | ||
| How Joseph Kennedy made his fortune, hint, it was bootlegging! | ||
|
unidentified
|
No, this just wasn't bootlegging. | |
| Oh, it wasn't. | ||
| Oh, I can't see the end because of the white shirt. | ||
| According to this biographer, that is a rumor that started in the 60s and 70s when they're trying to figure out who killed JFK and maybe it was the mafia because they were in that business. | ||
| That sounds like the Kennedy family is trying to cover up their dirty tracks. | ||
| It's a rumor. | ||
| Get the fuck out of here. | ||
| Is there a rumor about you bootlegging ever? | ||
| I was looking, because I've heard that too, but it right away says he was in the stock market. | ||
| Well, maybe. | ||
| Maybe bootlegging too. | ||
| Let's try another source. | ||
| Let's see... | ||
| Joseph Kennedy was a bootlegger. | ||
| Type that in. | ||
| Well, that story is going to come out here. | ||
| The Daily Beast, the myth of Joe Kennedy's bootlegger. | ||
| Oh, so it is a myth. | ||
| I don't know where I would find the correct story to, you know. | ||
| I know, right? | ||
| Like, how do you know who's telling the truth and whether or not it's a big old historical cover-up? | ||
| Like, if you were bootlegging, how much information would there be about you being a bootlegger? | ||
| Unless you got arrested for it. | ||
| For me? | ||
| I think cops were probably in on bootlegging back then, don't you think? | ||
| Everybody that could make money was involved with it. | ||
| Sure. | ||
| Everybody, what is my piece? | ||
| Why wouldn't you? | ||
| They probably were angry that the bars were closed, too. | ||
| And then they wanted a couple bottles. | ||
| Give me a couple bottles, a couple hundred dollars, so you can do whatever you want to do. | ||
| Can you imagine if that's how we live right now, if booze was illegal? | ||
| Imagine as much as people drink, if you had to do it all secret, you had to like have a big dude by the door, you had to have a password to get in, you're always worried about getting raided by the cops, just so you could have a drink. | ||
| But people would do it. | ||
| They did it. | ||
| They did it for years. | ||
| They made organized crime. | ||
| That's where like Al Capone made all of his money. | ||
| Yeah, that's the argument that's going on right now with the Mexican cartels. | ||
| The reason why they're able to make so much money is because all that stuff's illegal, and they're consuming it in the United States. | ||
| So you're playing a stupid game. | ||
| You're pretending people aren't taking it when they are. | ||
| You're making it illegal because you said they shouldn't do it. | ||
| But you want to control it at the end of the day. | ||
| You're just empowering organized crime. | ||
| And that's what they did with organized crime in Chicago. | ||
| That's what they did with organized crime in a lot of areas of this country. | ||
| And that's why they probably want to position people that they had influence over to be politicians. | ||
|
unidentified
|
For sure. | |
| They had so much money. | ||
| And back then there was no internet. | ||
| Nobody knew what was in your bank account or where it came. | ||
| Bro, shut that ding off. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Jesus Christ. | |
| No, I was checking. | ||
| I didn't know. | ||
| Hold on a second. | ||
| Sorry, man. | ||
| Dude, put that shit on airplane mode. | ||
| What are you doing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Okay. | |
| Do you know how to shut off the ding, though? | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| Stop disrespecting me, man. | ||
| But you've done it a few times. | ||
| I don't understand why it keeps dinging. | ||
| It won't ding again, man. | ||
| All right. | ||
| I'm sorry, man. | ||
| Oh, Donnell. | ||
| Donnell. | ||
| See, you can't say shit now. | ||
| You don't even know how to non-ding your phone. | ||
| Just shut the fucking ringer off, man. | ||
| You gotta flip it up. | ||
| No, you gotta flip it up towards you. | ||
| You're keeping it down. | ||
| It's off, man. | ||
| It's gonna ding again. | ||
| It's gonna ding from beyond the grave. | ||
| She's adorable, man. | ||
| What were we just talking about? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| Do you remember Jamie? | ||
| Oh, Kennedy's being a bootlegger. | ||
| Oh, yeah. | ||
| Maybe not. | ||
| I might be full of shit. | ||
| But we didn't know. | ||
| For sure. | ||
| But it was like there was just a rumor. | ||
| I don't know how it started. | ||
| Right. | ||
| For sure, there's a lot of organized crime money in fucking bootlegging. | ||
| That's a fact. | ||
| I'm on antibiotics because I got shot. | ||
| Yeah, you can't drink for how long? | ||
| Like, three more days, son. | ||
| Refreshing, though. | ||
| Give your body a little bit of a break. | ||
| It is, but I'm... | ||
| It is. | ||
| You missed it. | ||
| You're looking forward to it. | ||
| No, not missing it. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Like, after a show, a little shot. | ||
| Right. | ||
| You know, I just got this for all the people that's been in the streets and got shot. | ||
| Gotta get better. | ||
| Are you nervous for the country right now? | ||
| Are you nervous about the future? | ||
| No. | ||
| Not at all? | ||
| No. | ||
| I believe that we're always going to find solutions to stuff. | ||
| Like the first thing, like you mentioned about people that need to work or whatever, the first thing that's going to happen is there's going to be some type of stimulus package approved. | ||
| Motherfuckers are going to feel somewhat security or a little better if they have some money to be able to do something. | ||
| But this is just something that we're going to get past. | ||
| It's just a It's a matter of time. | ||
| And with the vaccine being on board, with them having more ways to test somebody in a faster manner, They don't cost as much. | ||
| I think it's going to change people's attitude, the way they feel about certain things, and things will start turning around. | ||
| I hope you're right. | ||
| My concern really is about how hard it's going to be to turn around the economy with that many people out of work. | ||
| That's what my worry is. | ||
| So many people are going to be broke and so many people are going to lose their houses and so many people are going to get evicted. | ||
| I just don't know how they stop that and turn that around when all these jobs are gone because all these businesses went under. | ||
| That's what scares me. | ||
| It's like this wasn't anticipated. | ||
| I think there would have been another way to do it. | ||
| They certainly didn't lock down as much out here. | ||
| Not nearly as much. | ||
| And then that's a good point because, I mean, like, whatever you worked for, whatever just could be pulled from under you just like that. | ||
| That's the thing about, like, you can't say that the people that are upset today are soy boys. | ||
| They can't say that they're all pussies because there's a lot of people that are upset through no fault of their own. | ||
| They lost everything, right? | ||
| You could be the most disciplined guy in the world. | ||
| You get up early every day, you work hard all day, you build a business, and then all of a sudden... | ||
| COVID comes around and you find out your margins are a lot smaller than you thought. | ||
| Nobody expected it to go eight, nine months, right? | ||
| So you're not making any money for eight, nine months and you can't reopen? | ||
| There's a lot of businesses like that. | ||
| There's a lot of bars. | ||
| There's not enough bailouts. | ||
| There's so many businesses. | ||
| There's not enough. | ||
| And they're not going to give you all you lost. | ||
| You're going to lose a tremendous amount no matter what. | ||
| Boy, there was a lot of people getting that money that was bullshit. | ||
| Boy, it was so much goddamn fucking scandal with them. | ||
| PBA loans and shit, man. | ||
| Everybody was grabbing them bitches. | ||
| They'll find money, then you gotta pay it back. | ||
| I hope we figure out a way to make this economy bounce back. | ||
| But I say we. | ||
| When I say we, I mean people way smarter than me. | ||
| I hope somebody figures it out. | ||
| I hope my son had the best life he can have. | ||
| Yeah, well, I hope so, too. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Like, I think that people are going to be concerned about people that are close to them and their family and how that situation is going. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I mean, everybody hopes that the next person that gets in office is going to nail it. | ||
| Everybody hopes the next person that gets in office is going to fix all our problems. | ||
| We've got to change the way we communicate with each other. | ||
| That's a big one. | ||
| Everybody's locked in this trap of us versus them, of red versus blue, of whatever the trap is, whatever your particular trap is. | ||
| There's men versus women traps. | ||
| People get crazy with being tribal and being on a fucking team. | ||
| We're supposed to be one team. | ||
| Supposed to be United States of America. | ||
| If we differ on small things like immigration or things like financial issues or how to use taxes and The most important thing is that we all want what's best for the country. | ||
| We all want the country to do well. | ||
| You want to thank people. | ||
| That's how you want people to feel. | ||
| That's what drove me the most crazy about Trump being president. | ||
| I felt like it was the first time I could ever remember where people wanted things to be bad so that he would be a bad president. | ||
| I mean, I guess they probably did with Obama, too. | ||
| They wanted things to go bad so they could blame it on him. | ||
| They would rather have something to blame on him than to have everything go well. | ||
| If you asked a hardcore Trump hater, would you rather, this would be a good question, would you rather the economy become the greatest economy the world has ever known? | ||
| And you'd be totally wrong. | ||
| And Trump, even though he's a pussy grabber and he's full of shit and he brags about himself, Became literally the best person to make the decisions that were the best for the country. | ||
| Or, would you rather the economy fall to the toilet and Trump goes to jail? | ||
| Like, Trump goes to jail! | ||
| Yeah, there's no bargain. | ||
| Yeah, I know. | ||
| Immediately, there would be no hesitation. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Put him in jail! | |
| Fuck him! | ||
| Everything's fine! | ||
| Everything's fine! | ||
| It sounds like a relationship. | ||
| Whatever makes you happy, you're like, fuck that, I don't want it to be happy. | ||
| Well, they definitely didn't want him to do well, which is weird. | ||
| They wanted him to get arrested and then the economy to bounce back. | ||
| That's what they wanted. | ||
| But another thing they wanted too, Joe, they wanted to feel like you cared about them. | ||
| They wanted to feel like you cared about something or somebody else other than your fan base. | ||
| That was a big part of it, man. | ||
| People didn't... | ||
| I don't think people were just looking for reasons to hate on him. | ||
| And I know some people that liked him... | ||
| Some people love to know nonsense, fuck it. | ||
| People love a guy who came along and said fuck you to politically correct shit too. | ||
| There's a lot that people liked about him. | ||
| People like the idea that he got fucked over in this election too. | ||
| They like the idea that the deep state was involved and that people were rigging voting machines and miscounting votes and people love those stories. | ||
| I do not know if those stories are true. | ||
| I don't give a fuck about those stories. | ||
| They're a bummer, though. | ||
| It's a bummer that there's those stories. | ||
| This would be the ideal scenario. | ||
| Whoever won, won. | ||
| If it's Biden and Kamala, they win, and then that's it. | ||
| They transfer power, shake of hands. | ||
| People do what they've always done, what Obama did with Trump. | ||
| They don't want to do that, son! | ||
| They don't want to do that. | ||
| That's so corny. | ||
| You don't want to shake a motherfucking hand. | ||
| You don't want to give up the secrets. | ||
| You don't want to give up the keys. | ||
| He's got to do it. | ||
| You don't want to give up the cars. | ||
| But he's got to do it, especially if he wants to run again. | ||
| See, if Trump wants to do it again, he can run one more time in 2024. But the only way he's going to be able to do that, he's got to be able to sit down and shake Biden's hand and say, I'll see you in four years, bitch. | ||
| He's got to be... | ||
| You can't just keep saying that the voting is 100% rigged and I won this election by a lot and all that's fucking dangerous because it's just dangerous for our confidence. | ||
| It's dangerous. | ||
| You got people talking about rise up. | ||
| It's gonna be something. | ||
| Something's gonna happen. | ||
| Dude, don't say that. | ||
| Here's the thing. | ||
| You gotta show the evidence first. | ||
| You've got to show the evidence first. | ||
| There has to be like... | ||
| You have to compile all that evidence. | ||
| If there really is that evidence, you've got to compile it all and present it in a very solid way. | ||
| You're trying to discuss shutdown. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's not... | ||
| I mean, it's above our pay grade to even understand national politics on that scale. | ||
| But I think that as a country, I think you and I both know that this country is... | ||
| This is like... | ||
| It's never been in a position where you don't know what the hell is going to happen. | ||
| You never know. | ||
| There's so much turmoil and weirdness. | ||
| And you never know, is there going to be another wave of this pandemic? | ||
| Are they going to shut everything down again? | ||
| What happens then? | ||
| Whatever happens then, we go with what has become our new norm. | ||
| We go back to that. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| Things are about to shift. | ||
| By the spring or the summer, things are going to be in a totally different place in regard to how people feel about Being in public, again, they're going to have this, they're going to come up with some super rapid testing situation. | ||
| I hope so. | ||
| That's going to make the fucking essential workers, people in the medical field feel more comfortable. | ||
| They're going to make other people feel comfortable. | ||
| And eventually, like, people are going to make decisions. | ||
| Am I going to fuck with this guy or what am I going to do to live? | ||
| I hope the vaccine and, you know, that the election gets resolved quickly. | ||
| Jamie, if you had to guess... | ||
| No, I know, but I mean, let them... | ||
| Let Trump say it's resolved. | ||
| If you had to guess, what percentage of election fraud do you think there was? | ||
| Take a guess. | ||
| It's not zero, right? | ||
| Probably not zero, but it's like one, two percent, like the normal polled plus or minus. | ||
| I think it's really one percent. | ||
| That's a lot, but I mean, there's 150 million votes. | ||
| I don't think it's one. | ||
| I guess that's a lot. | ||
| I don't think it's one, but I think there's a some less than zero number. | ||
| Or some more than zero number, rather, that is voter fraud. | ||
| I think that any reasonable person... | ||
| It's a point, one of points. | ||
| Yeah, it's not... | ||
| And who knows which way it goes? | ||
| Because I bet there's voter fraud the other way, too. | ||
| We're not hearing about that because Biden won. | ||
| But if Biden was like Trump and he lost that race, who knows? | ||
| They might try to figure out a way that the Republicans cheated. | ||
| I don't know, man. | ||
| Yo, I'm going to tell you, this shit has turned into comedy, son. | ||
| What's turned into comedy? | ||
| This whole just not quitting. | ||
| It's kind of crazy. | ||
| Every day he's tweeting about it. | ||
| No, it's not even crazy. | ||
| It's entertaining. | ||
| It's entertaining. | ||
| I know it's unfortunate for me, entertainment, but it's entertaining. | ||
| I get that it's entertaining, but it makes me nervous. | ||
| It makes me nervous when you start thinking that there's people out there that think that there's been a coup, right? | ||
| Or that Trump is attempting a coup. | ||
| There's like two different schools of thought. | ||
| One school of thought is the deep state took over the election and they rigged it. | ||
| And the other school of thought is this guy is trying to win even though he lost. | ||
| And he's trying to figure out a way to sue his way back into the White House. | ||
| And this is crazy. | ||
| Please go ahead. | ||
| Yeah, so that's the problem. | ||
| There's not a smooth transition. | ||
| He's going to win on one end because he's got the power of the people. | ||
| Like, again, him losing, the support that he has, he knows that there's a community. | ||
| They're going to be fucking still on his dick right now because he can shake some shit up. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Fuck them. | ||
| Fuck all of them. | ||
| Am I ever going to get some elk? | ||
| Do you have any elk today? | ||
| I have it at my house, yeah. | ||
| You can't cook it though, right? | ||
| I can cook it. | ||
| We'll have to figure out how much time we have between now and the show. | ||
| Yo, you can bring some oak to the show, son? | ||
| Not enough for everybody. | ||
| No, just a sample? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Why don't you just come over to my house? | ||
| I'll cook for you. | ||
| What time do we have? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| We'll figure it out when we get out of here. | ||
| Let's figure it out off the air, though. | ||
| But my two lesbian friends are supposed to meet me, son. | ||
| They're not like no menage a trois lesbian. | ||
| They're just like regular lesbians. | ||
| They're my friends. | ||
| Okay, that's cool. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Who do they think won? | ||
| Biden. | ||
| What? | ||
| Hell, man, what? | ||
| I said my two lesbian friends. | ||
| Imagine lesbians for Trump. | ||
| With their adopted Mexican son Eli, who I fucking love. | ||
| You don't think there's lesbians for Trump? | ||
| I bet there's a whole website. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| I never thought about that. | ||
| I don't think there's too many lesbians for Trump. | ||
| I bet there's a few. | ||
| I bet they get together and like, yeah. | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I don't think that. | ||
| That's what I said. | ||
| I never thought about. | ||
| Lesbians for Trump. | ||
| Some people are really into anime. | ||
|
unidentified
|
There's a t-shirt for you. | |
| There it goes. | ||
| Lesbians for Trump. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Oh no! | |
| It's funny, but you would assume that if someone's a lesbian, that's what I was kind of getting at, that you would instantly know who they're voting for, right? | ||
| I mean, I know that's kind of profiling, but I was definitely like short haircut, you know, short haircut, fucking man cut out suit with the tie. | ||
| Right, like how many girls with blue hair or pink hair voted for Trump? | ||
| Is it less than zero? | ||
| That's a good stat. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Trump pride gay Republicans on why they're backing the president. | ||
| Because I get to dress up again. | ||
| Having a good time. | ||
| It's a cool outfit. | ||
| It's such a weird time, man. | ||
| Such a weird time. | ||
| I'm ready to just get on the river, bro. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| I'm ready to just get into some nature. | ||
| Do you think you're going to move there? | ||
| Would you move there? | ||
| I think so. | ||
| It's a good place to be. | ||
| I think the community, I mean, it's just like, there's such a community, man, this summer. | ||
| And it was just so simple. | ||
| Would you get rid of your place in LA and just settle down there? | ||
| Yeah, I could do that. | ||
| I could do it. | ||
| Better for travel, really. | ||
| If you wanted to go left or right, you're more closer to the middle. | ||
| The nature is just better for everything, man. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I just want to be around some trees. | ||
| I think that's one good thing about people that can escape from LA. There's a lot of people that are escaping from New York as well, and they're moving to the suburbs, and they're liking it better. | ||
| They're more relaxed. | ||
| They get some space. | ||
| People are like, instead of being in the chaos, I can drive to the chaos. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You know, it's like fucking people from... | ||
| We're not even driving now. | ||
| A lot of people are working from home. | ||
| You don't think it's going to change? | ||
| I think there's going to be a lot of companies that realize, like, hey, I don't need this gigantic space to handle all these people. | ||
| I can let people work from home. | ||
| They're more productive. | ||
| Because a lot of times, people in offices, they get together, they talk, they have fun. | ||
| You know, there's a lot of work. | ||
| Oh, man, I used to fucking be in the fucking break room. | ||
| I never was doing work. | ||
| Always in a break room. | ||
| I've seen dudes in cubicles doing this shit, whether the cubicle's here, and they're both on the outside, they're just having a conversation. | ||
| They're nowhere near their computer. | ||
| People do that all the time. | ||
| If no one's watching, people do that all the time. | ||
| In some jobs. | ||
| Don't get personal if it's you. | ||
| Scooting back from the cubicle, that's hilarious. | ||
| There's a lot of dudes that are working all over the place that would be more productive if they just had a certain amount of work to do and they could just get it done at home. | ||
| But sometimes they want to patrol. | ||
| I think it's a good idea. | ||
| There's a lot of people that have jobs. | ||
| You have to be there, right? | ||
| Auto mechanic. | ||
| A lot of people. | ||
| Fill in the blank. | ||
| Carpenter. | ||
| A lot of people have jobs. | ||
| You've got to be there. | ||
| But there's certain jobs. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Carpenter. | |
| Yeah, why do you need to sit through an hour and 15 minutes of traffic when you can just do it through Zoom? | ||
| And you sit here in a pair of shorts and a t-shirt and get all your fucking work done. | ||
| Why do you need to go somewhere? | ||
| You don't. | ||
| With computers today, you don't have to go anywhere. | ||
| You don't have to go anywhere. | ||
| They just want to control the movements of it. | ||
| They just want to... | ||
| It makes sense. | ||
| And I think it's going to go to that. | ||
| Everybody's like, I'm working from home, I'm working from home, and they're getting the job done. | ||
| Everything is different. | ||
| A lot of people are going to be able to stay home. | ||
| And so I think that's just going to change the nature of cities in general. | ||
| Less people are going to have to commute to them. | ||
| But that's one probably good thing about this, is that people are gonna not have to commute as much, so maybe the roads won't be as jammed up. | ||
| That saves people so much fucking stress. | ||
| If you're a dude who works in Orange County and you live in LA and you gotta make that drive every morning, you ever see that fucking drive? | ||
| That drive's insane. | ||
| I've come from that drive. | ||
| I've been going the other way of that drive. | ||
| When you go Orange County to LA at 7am, you wanna just fucking end it. | ||
| You're just like, I can't do this every day. | ||
| But you can do it for a minute because that's the route that I, because I, my accountant is out in Orange County, and I did that trip a couple times, and I kind of enjoyed being up in the morning with it. | ||
| Because I don't have to do, I didn't have to do it a long time. | ||
| Because you don't have to do it every day. | ||
| If you had a job, and you had to be at your job at 8.30 in the morning every day, and you live in Orange County, and you got to go to LA, you got to leave your house before 7.00. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| You're going to accept the fact that every morning there's a likelihood, a high likelihood, it's going to take you an hour and a half plus. | ||
| Or you can go on Zoom. | ||
| Or you can go on Zoom. | ||
| I'm going on Zoom. | ||
| Yeah, and you can wake up, instead of waking up at 6, you can wake up at 8. You wake up at 8, have a cup of coffee, sit down, turn on your fucking computer. | ||
| I get up early now, Joe. | ||
| You can eat a little bit of toast. | ||
| I got Maggie. | ||
| I understand. | ||
| Maggie is outside. | ||
| Yeah, I got to get up early. | ||
| I'm not like, the old Donnell is gone, Joe. | ||
| I get it. | ||
| Like, she's down there curled up. | ||
| I'm just happy that there's alternatives for some people where they at least can work. | ||
| If they can't be in an office, at least they can do some stuff on Zoom. | ||
| But for other people, man, that's what I'm worried about. | ||
| What I'm worried about is everything restarting. | ||
| Man, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe. | ||
| Donnell, Donnell, Donnell. | ||
| I know you worry about it, and you have concerns, and everybody worry about having concerns. | ||
| But eventually it's like this, yo, what the fuck are you going to do? | ||
| You got to figure it out. | ||
| People are going to have to figure it out. | ||
| Yeah, man, it's like I understand. | ||
| You keep saying, yeah, man, then I feel sorry for them. | ||
| Sorry, eventually you're going to have to figure it the fuck out. | ||
| Eventually nobody is going to be able to help you. | ||
| Nobody's gonna be able to vouch for you, and you gotta do it your fucking self. | ||
| David Goggins said it, man. | ||
| It goes back to that same point, man. | ||
| They're looking for answers. | ||
| You are the answer. | ||
| You got two excuses, a good one and a bad one. | ||
| At the end of the day, it's the same fucking excuse. | ||
| I've said it before, and I know people are like, well, it's easy for you to say. | ||
| It's not easy for anybody to say. | ||
| Whatever's going to happen moving on forward, it's not easy for anybody to say. | ||
| Everybody's going to have their opinion of it. | ||
| Everybody's going to be on the opinion of, well, give him a chance. | ||
| Maybe he can bring the world back together. | ||
| It's going to be a lot of Trump motherfuckers like, yo, fuck you, asshole. | ||
| There's been no supporter that's been angrier than a Trump supporter to the extent that there's sore winners and sore losers. | ||
| You got to pick a sore. | ||
| You can't just take both sores. | ||
| See, the thing is, they think they got robbed. | ||
| That's why his tweets are dangerous. | ||
| And even if you do, Joe, even if you do, have you feel, this is the part that's fucked up. | ||
| Is this mine? | ||
| This is the part that's fucked up. | ||
| It's been sitting here for a while. | ||
| Probably not hot anymore. | ||
| What was I saying, son? | ||
| This is the part that's fucked up about being sore winners and sore losers. | ||
| You gotta pick a sore. | ||
| You gotta pick a sore. | ||
| And everything is not gonna always go your way. | ||
| But you don't have to be upset about it. | ||
| See, the thing is though, what he's saying to them is it was a robbery. | ||
| So he thinks it's a robbery. | ||

It's starting shit, man. | |
| It's definitely starting shit. | ||
| You got it. | ||
| That's it right there. | ||

| This is too big for a fucking teapot. | ||
| It's coffee. | ||

Damn, son. | |
| It just keeps the coffee warm after you're done. | ||

| What's that? | ||
| Does he want to come in? | ||
| Who out there? | ||
| Dave's out there. | ||
| Tell that nigga to come in, son! | ||
| Yeah, tell him to come on in. | ||
| Do we have a camera for him? | ||

I had one. | |

| Joe, you will love this place. | ||
| I thought they said you was there. | ||
| No, they said you was somewhere else. | ||
| I went to the Vulcan Gas Company. | ||
| That's the only place I've been in town. | ||
| Michelle is doing that. | ||
| Oh, it's great. | ||
| That's the gig she's got coming on. | ||
| Yeah, because Cap City's gone, so people are doing shows anywhere they can. | ||
| Are you going to buy a club here? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| You got to. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| I'll be the first gig. | ||
| All right. | ||
| You heard it here, folks. | ||
| I felt like I have to. | ||
| As soon as Cap City went under, I was like, oh, shit. | ||
| Oh, now I have to. | ||
| But I don't know what's going to happen after Biden gets into office, whether there's going to be another lockdown, like a national lockdown for a while. | ||
| So I'll wait until after that blows over. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Just keep moving forward. | ||
| That's all. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Everything that I've seen you do, moving here to Austin, it's gangsta. | ||
| It's correct. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Thanks, man. | |
| We find a way. | ||
| Yeah, we find a way. | ||
| We were just talking about that. | ||
| People find a way. | ||
| I was saying, what are people going to do? | ||
| You know, with restarting the economy and, you know, trying to get a job when all these businesses went under. | ||
| Like, how does everything go? | ||
| And Don, I was just saying, we do what we have to do. | ||
| We figure it out. | ||
| That's true. | ||
| I'm far from an economist, but I will say that planning for your future is a good thing. | ||
| It's a necessary thing. | ||
| Even though it's uncertain, you have to remember the sun does rise every morning. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So just keep moving. | ||
| And people that are in this shit right now never thought that it was going to happen. | ||
| Now that they know that this is a possibility, now we have to plan for the future. | ||
| Yeah, I've never seen this before. | ||
| Never. | ||
| You know, you've never seen something as large as the American economy stop and then start back up. | ||
| But it's a global phenomenon. | ||
| It's not like it's just happening to us. | ||
| We're just handling it terribly. | ||
| I like how you handled it, though. | ||
| I like doing those shows that you did in Yellow Springs. | ||
| It's a great idea. | ||
| It was wonderful. | ||
| Doing it in that chapel, that whole area outside. | ||
| It's amazing. | ||
| Yeah, it's a pavilion. | ||
| All outdoors. | ||
| I talked to my doctor, my family practitioner, and he told me, you should play outdoors. | ||
| If you're playing indoors, use UV air filters. | ||
| There's specs of a building that might be safer. | ||
| Many buildings now today are not outfitted this way. | ||
| And, you know, you hope for the best. | ||
| You take every necessary precaution, reasonable precaution, but it's a pandemic. | ||
| There's no guarantees. | ||
| Are you getting any people giving you shit about doing shows? | ||
| No. | ||
| No? | ||
| Nothing? | ||
| I mean, even if I did, you know what I mean? | ||
| Who cares? | ||
| And that's it. | ||
| There's nothing you can do about it. | ||
| No matter what, you know, I read about Jesus. | ||
| Seemed to be a really good guy. | ||
| They killed him. | ||
| That's just the nature of people. | ||
| Donnell, this dog is hilarious. | ||
| Man, this dog is an angel. | ||
| This dog makes everybody feel good, man. | ||
| She's so cute. | ||
| I've never seen a little... | ||
| Dog as a baby. | ||
| I've only seen them as full-grown little dogs. | ||
| This is going to be her size right here. | ||
| That's how she's going to stay? | ||
| Yeah, she's going to stay like this with a little bit more bark and more... | ||
| Now, how is it traveling with her? | ||
| Do you like it more? | ||
| The company, I mean. | ||
| It's dope. | ||
| When I got her, I was like this, oh, she's an emotional dog, right? | ||
| But now that I got her, I'm like this, yeah, I'm an emotional human. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| And like, like, yo, let me tell you something, son. | ||
| Sometimes I'll be up at 5.30 and she'll be up her ears and be up looking like, what we doing, nigga? | ||
| And I'm like, at least somebody understands me, right? | ||
| It increases the amount of love you have, right? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| Because you have this dog. | ||
| And she follows me everywhere. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, I was at the show the other night. | ||
| I was on stage and they said she was shaking, barking when she heard my voice. | ||
| Yeah, it's crazy. | ||
| She was. | ||
| She was like, where you at, motherfucker? | ||
| Oh, she loves you. | ||
| Yeah, it's a different world, man. | ||
| You got a little dog that counts on you like that. | ||
| Those are different kinds of dogs, too. | ||
| They're so little, they have to be held. | ||
| You have to carry them most of the time. | ||
| Is she scared or cold? | ||
| Like, why is she shaking? | ||
|
unidentified
|
She might be a little combination of both, son. | |
| Maybe she needs a drink. | ||
| Maybe she has to piss. | ||
| She's five months old. | ||
| How is she keeping it together? | ||
| Don't talk about her like that. | ||
| She's good, son. | ||
| She probably just needs a little warmth. | ||
| Do you have dogs? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I have one dog. | ||
| You probably have a huge wolf kind of dog. | ||
| No, I have a golden retriever. | ||
| I have the sweetest dog in the world. | ||
| He's the nicest dog ever. | ||
| That dog looks perfect. | ||
| He's so nice. | ||
| That dog looks like he has a great life. | ||
| He's just a love sponge. | ||
| That dog is just all about love. | ||
| All he wants to do is kiss you and let you pet him. | ||
| Who spends the most time with your dog? | ||
| Me? | ||
| Probably. | ||
| Yeah, I can see that. | ||
| I spend a lot of time with him. | ||
| We have a morning ritual. | ||
| What's the ritual? | ||
| I just get up in the morning. | ||
| As soon as I see him... | ||
| Good morning, sir! | ||
| Good morning, sir! | ||
| And he starts freaking out. | ||
| And he go for a walk? | ||
| Wags his tail. | ||
| He does that, but he loves chasing balls more than anything. | ||
| He's a great dog. | ||
| He likes swimming. | ||
| I didn't. | ||
| Thank you, sir. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| No, he's a sweet dog. | ||
| You got a dog? | ||
| Three of them. | ||
| What kind? | ||
| Australian Shepherd. | ||
| And one kind of like this. | ||
| What do they call it? | ||
| A Chowinie, I think they call it. | ||
| It's half Chihuahua, half one of those hot dogs. | ||
| That's the one Baba. | ||
| Remember the one in my special Baba? | ||
| That's him. | ||
| A Chowinie. | ||
| He have this and half hot dog. | ||
| And then my daughter has a little dog like this. | ||
| Not a Chihuahua. | ||
| I can't remember what kind of dog she is. | ||
| My daughter has a chihuahua mix. | ||
| It's like a chihuahua with like, I think he's got some whippet or something in him. | ||
| So it's a chihuahua with long legs. | ||
| He's adorable. | ||
| You know, I wanted my kids to train animals when they were little. | ||
| Really? | ||
| That's one of these things I should have followed through on. | ||
| But the reason I did it is because I wanted to learn how to be patient with people. | ||
| And I figured if they trained a dog or something, it takes patience. | ||
| Look at that. | ||
| This dog is adorable, but she don't know nothing yet. | ||
| Yeah, she don't know shit, son. | ||
| She knows snacks. | ||
| The real problem is when you get dogs that need a lot of training, like if you want to have a German Shepherd or a working dog, like a Belgian Malinois, a lot of people get those dogs, you don't realize, like, you basically got, like, a little genius with teeth that lives with you that wants to figure out problems. | ||
| You know those like, have you heard of those celebrity, like the German Shepherds, the guard dogs, the real ones that know 200 commands. | ||
| Yeah, Schutz in training. | ||
| Yeah, that's what they call it. | ||
| Yeah, I've seen guys do that. | ||
| Some comedian got one of those dogs, spent like 200 grand on it, and it died in like a week. | ||
| Those are crazy. | ||
| If you can have a dog like that, that's a commitment, man. | ||
| Like, those dogs need work. | ||
| That's what I'm saying. | ||
| Those dogs are so smart. | ||
| They're from a long history of working dogs. | ||
| Those are task-oriented dogs. | ||
| This dog's from a long history of... | ||
| Isn't she adorable? | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| She is. | ||
| Come here. | ||
| She doesn't want to be held back, bro. | ||
| Have you ever taken a dog hunting? | ||
| No. | ||
| You can't do that, right? | ||
| No, not my dog. | ||
| It's too dangerous for a dog. | ||
| Well, you wouldn't want him to be in the woods, first of all, because he'd probably scare off the animals. | ||
| But second of all, he has the instincts to chase squirrels and shit. | ||
| He chases squirrels, but he's a lover. | ||
| There's no aggression in him. | ||
| With other dogs, he's always the beta. | ||
| He tries to be the alpha, but they bark at him. | ||
| He's like, sorry, sorry. | ||
| The Australian Shepherd's like that. | ||
| She's like the dog you described that needs work. | ||
| You can tell she's a herder. | ||
| She corrals kids, she corrals me. | ||
| Isn't that interesting? | ||
| They have it in their DNA. I've seen that. | ||
| They really do. | ||
| It's a... | ||
| And the dog is really smart. | ||
| I never trained this dog, but you would think I had. | ||
| I just talked to it. | ||
| And you could see her face trying to figure out what I'm talking about. | ||
| It's really cool. | ||
| I think he's doing something with the dog. | ||
| To beat his dog. | ||
| They do figure out words. | ||
| Like, it's not just commands. | ||
| Like, my dog knows. | ||
| You hungry, man? | ||
| You want to eat? | ||
| He knows when I say, you hungry? | ||
| What do you want to do, dude? | ||
| You want to throw the ball? | ||
| He's like, let's throw the fucking ball. | ||
| He'll go over by where the ball is. | ||
| You got to go outside? | ||
| And he'll just start walking towards the door. | ||
| He knows a few phrases. | ||
| Because I definitely trained him, like sit and all that shit. | ||
| But some dogs are just smarter than other dogs. | ||
| He's a really smart dog. | ||
| Yeah, man. | ||
| Does he like Austin? | ||
| Do you like Austin? | ||
| I love it. | ||
| I love it here. | ||
| What did he do? | ||
| Oh, Donnell! | ||
| Down with the count! | ||
| Hey, that's actually... | ||
| You did a great job. | ||
| You actually put it back perfect. | ||
| That's perfect. | ||
| I was dead in frame. | ||
| Don't worry about it, man. | ||
| That's the best recovery I've ever seen from one of these stupid things. | ||
| These aren't ideal. | ||
| These cameras mounted on the wall. | ||
| I like the setup a lot, man. | ||
| Thank you. | ||
| It feels homey. | ||
| You actually just tricked me into doing the podcast. | ||
| Sorry. | ||
| No, I'm going to come and do it, like, for real, for real. | ||
| For real, for real. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| As a matter of fact, I should come after the inauguration. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Let's do it. | ||
| I'll come after the inauguration. | ||
| That sounds great. | ||
| Nobody believe I got shot, son. | ||
| Yo, Dave, I don't know what's going on, man, but everywhere I go... | ||
| Don't eat on the air. | ||
| Why I can't eat over here? | ||
| You're going to crunch on the air? | ||
| Where? | ||
| You're crunching in the microphone. | ||
| You're eating. | ||
| Come on, man. | ||
| That's disgusting. | ||
| Yo, he said he was going to bring enough elk for me and you. | ||
| I would totally do that. | ||
| Is it good? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Have you had it before? | ||
| I tried to tell them about it. | ||
| Yeah, it's good. | ||
| So what do you do? | ||
| You make jerky? | ||
| You barbecue it? | ||
| I just put it on a grill. | ||
| I usually put it on a... | ||
| You know what a Traeger grill is? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| It's a pellet grill. | ||
| So it just has like little wood pellets they make with sawdust. | ||
| I've seen those, yeah. | ||
| They compress the sawdust into these pellets and pour it into the machine. | ||
| So it's basically just fire and wood. | ||
| So it's like keep it at a low temperature. | ||
| Control it like 265. Until it hits 120 degrees internal temperature. | ||
| Then I pull it, and then I sear the outside. | ||
| One of two ways. | ||
| Either I do it in a cast iron frying pan with beef tallow, which is rendered beef fat. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| Or I do it, I have a grill. | ||
| I could do it outside on another kind of grill. | ||
| Usually I like to do it in the cast iron frying pan. | ||
| You heard it here first. | ||
| Joe Rogan doesn't just like killing animals. | ||
| He likes cooking them too. | ||
| I like it. | ||
| It's complicated. | ||
| He always has a perfect, he got this perfect little chopping block he put them on. | ||
| And he always throw the jalapenos on his side, right? | ||
| And it's just, you see this perfectly seared meat, and then the knife is like a Japanese, some extra shit. | ||
| Then you see a little blood, and then a little jalapenos, and he's showing off, son. | ||
| Do you cook at all, Dave? | ||
| Not anything like you guys. | ||
| Donnell can cook. | ||
| That's all I hear. | ||
| I couldn't believe it. | ||
| He challenged me. | ||
| I thought he was joking. | ||
| He said, I'm going to cook for all these people. | ||
| I literally thought he was joking. | ||
| I said, he can't cook. | ||
| He's like, what? | ||
| Like he was offended. | ||
| So he makes me take him to a grocery store. | ||
| This is in Ohio. | ||
| And I was laughing the whole time until he started shopping. | ||
| He goes to the lady, do you have clam juice? | ||
| I said, clam juice? | ||
| Started asking for all these fucking ingredients. | ||
| Killed it. | ||
| Cooked for like 20 of my friends in Ohio. | ||
| And then went and did a show. | ||
| It was amazing. | ||
| And then I made him apologize to me. | ||
| He was like, you did a good job. | ||
| I was like, no, motherfucker. | ||
| You got to do it on stage. | ||
| You said you was going to promise it was on stage. | ||
| Fuck that shit. | ||
| I'm saying it on the podcast. | ||
| It was amazing. | ||
| No, I made him say it. | ||
| I was like, he was like, yeah, Donnie. | ||
| I was like, nah, nigga, what the fuck did you say? | ||
| How did you learn to cook? | ||
| Just watching my mother cook, just watching cooking shows. | ||
| But I do remember when I was younger, my mother was a part of Publishers' Clan House, and I think they had one promotion where you get a Betty Crocker's recipe book, and it had all these recipe cards. | ||
| And they sent it to you, and it's like meats, and then you see all these recipes. | ||
| And I used to look at the recipe, and I was like, man, we ain't got shit to make none of this with. | ||
| We had the recipe, but we didn't have the ingredients. | ||
| So I just started reading those recipe cards. | ||
| When I got older, I was like, I should start just fucking with this shit I couldn't cook. | ||
| And then I just started fucking around and just started having fun with cooking. | ||
| Do you go off recipes now or do you have it in your head? | ||
| I go off of it 100%. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| It's like, you know, with cooking, it's like a technique, the art of cooking. | ||
| If you know how to cook, you can cook whatever. | ||
| It all depends on what spice is or whatever. | ||
| But if you know how to cook, you know how to cook. | ||
| What's the specialty? | ||
| I don't really have a specialty. | ||
| Really? | ||
| I don't have a specialty. | ||
| I'll follow a recipe. | ||
| Somebody will do something. | ||
| I'll get inspired by something. | ||
| But I do know I make these garlic noodles, right? | ||
| It's not a specialty, but it's a whopper. | ||
| It's like a wet-ass pussy dish. | ||
| It's a wet-ass pussy dish, son. | ||
| There's no way around it. | ||
| They love the garlic noodles, and I make a dope-ass garlic. | ||
| You can put whatever protein you want on it, but the garlic noodles are fucking crazy. | ||
| In fact, you made those at night. | ||
| I did? | ||
| Yeah, you did. | ||
| I was impressed. | ||
| I love this thing you said, the metaphor. | ||
| We had the recipes, just not the ingredients. | ||
| That's a good metaphor for a lot of things in life. | ||
| We had the recipes, but none of the ingredients. | ||
| We didn't have it. | ||
| Well, that's a bar. | ||
| You should write that down. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Will I remember it? | ||
| But that's the truth. | ||
| Someone will tell you. | ||
| It's true. | ||
| Just watch the podcast tomorrow. | ||
|
unidentified
|
You too. | |
| Yeah, everyone wants equal access to the ingredients. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| I had the recipe. | ||
| Real equality, right? | ||
| But none of the ingredients. | ||
| That really is the difference. | ||
| That's a great metaphor. | ||
| It is. | ||
| Yeah, for life. | ||
| That's what I was telling y'all niggas, man. | ||
| Yo, he's been not listening to my story the whole show, Dave. | ||
|
unidentified
|
I listened. | |
| He doesn't believe you. | ||
| Anytime I mention I got shot. | ||
| I believed him the first time. | ||
| I believed him the second time. | ||
| I believed him every time. | ||
| You know Pierre Edwards? | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Great comedian. | ||
| I saw a video today. | ||
| It was on some guy's Instagram. | ||
| He's a comedian. | ||
| It was me introducing him at a comedy club when I was like 17. Wow. | ||
| Someone just sent it to me. | ||
| Pierre from D.C.? Which one? | ||
| Yeah, Pierre from D.C. Yeah? | ||
| He used to do the funniest joke about getting shot. | ||
| I'm not going to do another guy's joke. | ||
| But, you know, he got shot in D.C. like one night. | ||
| Oh, yeah, I remember that. | ||
| Yeah, it was funny. | ||
| He's a funny dude. | ||
| I got shot. | ||
| Nobody fucking believe me, man. | ||
| We believe you. | ||
| Yo, are you going to bring some elk? | ||
| I told you I'll cook some. | ||
| I'm ready. | ||
| I'm ready, man. | ||
| I want to see what they say in the streets. | ||
| What's all this fuss is about? | ||
| I want some elk, son. | ||
| Yo, everywhere I go, motherfuckers say, did you try the elk? | ||
| That's all I know. | ||
| Is it gamey? | ||
| No, it's not gamey. | ||
| There's a weird taste that people associate with venison, a gamey taste. | ||
| And for the most part, it either hasn't been prepared correctly or it wasn't taken care of correctly after the animal died. | ||
| That's for the most part. | ||
| It's a different flavor, but I think what people associate with not tasting good, I think a lot of that, a lot of it, not all of it, but a lot of it isn't just personal taste, it's bad preparation. | ||
| You get a steak from a grocery store, you're assuming that professional butchers, like people that grow the cows, professional butchers, all down the line, they get you a steak. | ||
| If you got a guy's deer meat, who knows how this guy took care of that fucking deer. | ||
| You know, he could have had that shit hanging in a tree. | ||
| You don't see no marbleization in there, bitch, nowhere. | ||
| No marbleization in there, nowhere. | ||
| Sometimes people shoot them and they don't get them into the morning. | ||
| See, this is what I'm talking about, Dave. | ||
| Look what the fuck I'm talking about, Dave. | ||
| That's good. | ||
| No, wait a minute. | ||
| That's a show on board. | ||
| Exactly. | ||
| Dave, this is go-to picture. | ||
| You're not going to shame me. | ||
| You're not going to shame me. | ||
| This is a good elk day right here, son. | ||
| It is a good elk day. | ||
| What does the caption say? | ||
| Watch he mention something about a jalapeno somewhere. | ||
| This is the final product. | ||
| Oh, shit. | ||
| That's Pretty, right? | ||
| But what's that a dry rub? | ||
| What rub is that? | ||
| That's a Saskatchewan, blackened Saskatchewan. | ||
| It's a Traeger rub. | ||
| It's like a Cajun style almost, but it's got, it's like a blackened, but not like, it's got a lot of salt to it. | ||
| It's delicious. | ||
| It's the perfect rub. | ||
| I love that rub for elk. | ||
| So wait, when you cook it, you cut it up yourself? | ||
| You know how to cut steaks out of a... | ||
| Yes! | ||
| That's the whole purpose! | ||
| I do, but that part is easy because that part is what's called the back strap. | ||
| That's the big, thick piece of meat that's on each side of the spine. | ||
| Look at the knife, though, nigga. | ||
| Is that a Japanese? | ||
| No, that's an American knife. | ||
| Who made that knife? | ||
| What does it say in the caption? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| There's no tag or nothing? | ||
|
unidentified
|
No. | |
| The dude who made it was shit. | ||
| Dave, you wouldn't eat that. | ||
| It's in there somewhere, same knife, real close to it. | ||
| So if you're killing elk, how long are you eating that elk? | ||
| You can eat it for a whole year. | ||
| Literally a year? | ||
| Yeah, they're huge. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, some knife here. | |
| I got it. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| The guy gave me the knife. | ||
| There it is. | ||
| Neanderthal. | ||
| Oh, Chumney knives. | ||
| C-H-U-M-N-E-F-Y knives. | ||
|
unidentified
|
That knife looks right, son. | |
| That knife looks right. | ||
| It's a dope knife. | ||
| Yeah, you'd eat it for all year. | ||
| It's hundreds of pounds of meat. | ||
| It's like 400 pounds of meat. | ||
|
unidentified
|
They're huge. | |
| They're huge. | ||
| It's okay. | ||
| Say you're shooting elk. | ||
| You're bow hunting, I'm imagining. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| What happens? | ||
| It runs off? | ||
| You gotta follow it for like a day or two? | ||
| If you hit them right, they die pretty quick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ow! | |
| Damn! | ||
| He do it with a bow though, son! | ||
| But you have to practice a lot, man. | ||
| This nigga do it with a bow! | ||
| It's not easy. | ||
| But the point is, I know exactly where that meat's coming from. | ||
| I know the whole chain of command. | ||
| I know everything that's happened from the time that animal got hit until the time I'm cooking it. | ||
| That's interesting. | ||
| Yeah, it's mind blowing. | ||
| I get all my meats from strangers. | ||
| Yeah, most people do. | ||
| Yeah, you don't think about it. | ||
| I was in Alaska once and a lady told me that she hadn't eaten something, she hadn't killed herself in years. | ||
| This woman looked like a Betty Crocker model, like a house model. | ||
| She was working in an ammunition store. | ||
| I had never been to a gun store before. | ||
| It was ridiculous. | ||
| This is in Fairbanks, Alaska. | ||
| It was so many. | ||
| Think of a kind of gun. | ||
| The guy goes, this is a sniper rifle. | ||
| You can shoot a bear with this from two miles away. | ||
| Couldn't imagine why I would shoot a bear that was two miles away. | ||
| I couldn't, I was the weirdest sales pitch, and he literally said that to me. | ||
| Yeah, that's like a thousand yards, right? | ||
| Isn't that? | ||
| Isn't it two miles? | ||
| Two miles? | ||
| Way farther than that. | ||
| How many thousand miles is a mile? | ||
| Oh, 5,000 feet is a mile. | ||
| Right, it's not yards. | ||

Plus to 2,000 yards. | |
| Yeah, it's crazy. | ||
| So they can shoot things at a thousand yards. | ||
| Like snipers have hit shots at a thousand yards. | ||
| So just think of that number. | ||
| It was a crazy thing to dispel and sell to somebody. | ||
| I'm not going to get into all that gun stuff. | ||
| A mile is 5,000 feet and then a thousand yards a bullet. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| That's so far. | ||
| That's really far. | ||
| That's a long squint. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| 10,000 feet for them is nothing. | ||
| That's the scope, though. | ||
| That has to be a scope. | ||
| Well, again, this was Alaska, so you gotta think, things like guns there are more utilitarian than, like, you know, New York or something. | ||
| People do need... | ||
| You don't want a toolie out there, I think. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Everybody has guns up there. | ||
| Well, they also have bears and fucking moose and shit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's crazy up there. | ||
| It looks unfinished. | ||
| It's beautiful. | ||
| It's a wild place. | ||
| It's one of the last real... | ||
| The people that live up there are a different kind of human. | ||
| They're more... | ||
| They have... | ||
| They're more durable. | ||
| They're not soybean eaters. | ||
| They have all these Alaska-isms. | ||
| They call leaving Alaska going outside. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Yeah, it's like a cult. | ||
| They say the lower 48, we all heard that before. | ||
| They'll call the rest of the continental US lower 48. Tons of them. | ||
| But it was fun up there, man. | ||
| They're nice people. | ||
| I've only done shows up there once. | ||
| I did shows in Anchorage with Ari. | ||
| We had a good fucking time. | ||
| They were good people. | ||
| But they're sturdy. | ||
| They're like, you can tell. | ||
| They survive winter. | ||
| They deal with shit that people don't have to deal with. | ||
| The male to female ratio. | ||
| The male to female ratio. | ||
| Guys, I'll number women in Alaska. | ||
| I think 10 to 1. 10 to 1. There's not many women. | ||
| Oh, some motherfuckers are sexy as shit out there, bitch. | ||
| Ten to one. | ||
| Well, yeah, that's what you would think. | ||
| You'd think, oh, if you're a woman, oh, this is great. | ||
| Ten guys, you got ten dusty dirt on the fingernail choices. | ||
| These guys are rugged. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| These guys are rugged. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Yeah, just think of the jobs you have. | ||
| I was the only dude in the nail shop in Fairbanks, Alaska. | ||
| Everybody else's nails and hands look like shit. | ||
| Yo, you was killing it, sir. | ||
| I've been mining all day. | ||
| I met a guy as a gold miner. | ||
| Weird jobs like that. | ||
| That's how it was when I was in the Air Force, when I was stationed in Kunzong, Korea. | ||
| It was like 10 guys to every girl. | ||
| And whoever she was, she was America's next top model. | ||
| She had the attitude. | ||
| Every one of them chicks was like, motherfucker, you gotta compete. | ||
| That's why niggas was going downtown. | ||
| It's definitely an unhealthy balance. | ||
| You know Donnell speaks Korean. | ||
| Not fluently, but just casual. | ||
| But no, I didn't know that. | ||
| We were in New York when we were shooting Chappelle's show. | ||
| We walk into a deli. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And, you know, two Korean guys sitting talking to each other. | ||
| Donnell turns over, you know how he talks, and he starts coming back, but, you know, starts doing the thing. | ||
| And I thought he was fucking with him. | ||
| I'm like, oh, come on, man, don't do that. | ||
| Like, I'm so sorry, sir. | ||
| And the guy goes, the guy looks shocked. | ||
| And then the guy starts talking back, and they talk to each other for a couple seconds. | ||
| And I'm like, I was floored, staring at him. | ||
| I couldn't believe it. | ||
| And he goes, oh, they thought, uh, he said, they thought we were stealing, son. | ||
| And I told him that we wasn't stealing. | ||
| I think he called him like a dog-eating motherfucker in his own language. | ||
| And he loved it. | ||
| He said it. | ||
| He promised me you'd call him a doggie motherfucker. | ||
| Yeah, I went hard, son. | ||
| Because he was saying something about you while you were standing there and he didn't know that you could speak Korean. | ||
| Yeah, but we were engaged in the conversation. | ||
| Me and the guy was engaged in the conversation. | ||
| Dave thought I was mocking him. | ||
| You know, Dave thought I was mongering, but I was really having a conversation with him. | ||
| So Dave didn't know. | ||
| He thought I was, like, fucking with him. | ||
| Like, yo, you can't talk like that. | ||
| And then I was rocking with him. | ||
| I was like, oh, shit. | ||
| Those guys were floored. | ||
| I was floored. | ||
| They're like, when they see a black guy going to one of those stores that speak any level of Korean, they fucking lose it. | ||
| Like, how often does that happen? | ||
| Well, clearly this means, one could surmise, that when you were in the Air Force, you spent a lot of time off base. | ||
| I did. | ||
| You would just be in town and just hanging out. | ||
| I would just go, when we had days off, I would go to these little small cities or wherever they lived. | ||
| They never experienced Americans, let alone a black guy. | ||
| And I would catch boats and shit over there and just hang out with them. | ||
| And that's how I got, they got accustomed to me and I got accustomed to them. | ||
| Can you read it? | ||
| No, I couldn't read it. | ||
| But I could, back in the day, I could spell my name. | ||
| But it was just like, I was with trustworthy people. | ||
| You know, we all worked together and it was just like, fuck can I do, man? | ||
| Let's go see what your culture is about. | ||
| That's cool that you learned that. | ||
| That's a rare thing. | ||
| That's probably a difficult language to pick up to. | ||
| The sounds are so different. | ||
| Well, to me, I think it's a testament that you're a people person. | ||
| Which goes back to the original point we all made. | ||
| You find a way. | ||
| If you want to hang out and talk to people and nobody speaks your language, I don't speak that language. | ||
| Yeah, you'll find the way. | ||
| Yeah, you will. | ||
| So did you learn from books? | ||
| Did you take classes? | ||
| Did you learn from talking to people? | ||
| It was just shared with the main gate. | ||
| We worked the main gate. | ||
| You would have 12 hours, 16 hour days. | ||
| So there's one American on one side and there's two Koreans on the other side. | ||
| You could just stare at each other all day or you could just start doing word association. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| It's poignant stuff. | ||
| Oh, wow. | ||
| What did you just say? | ||
| They say, yo, main gate, Airman Rollins, man, help you. | ||
| That was the greeting. | ||
| I would say when it comes, that's what they would say. | ||
| But I would switch it to me. | ||
| They used to be like, oh! | ||
| Yo, I'm telling you, son, they used to get amped. | ||
|
unidentified
|
When I get a joy ride, they'd be like, oh, Rollins, why, why, why? | |
| They was like, Rollins, don't answer phone because I sound like them. | ||
| And then they would say something else I didn't know. | ||
| I'd be like, yeah, yeah, come something down, touch them up. | ||
| They'd be like, oh! | ||
| Because your accent was perfect. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I would do the same. | ||
| When I started learning Spanish, I went to Ecuador once for like six weeks. | ||
| I just started picking up Spanish. | ||
| I had a driver. | ||
| I just met the guy. | ||
| I hired him. | ||
| I said, yeah, you drive the car. | ||
| He spoke like a little bit of English. | ||
| I spoke less Spanish, but we did the same thing. | ||
| By the end of it, by the end of six weeks, My man, I could speak Spanish. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But I would mimic the action of whoever taught me the word. | ||
| If I learned the word from an Argentinian, I'd say it like an Argentinian says it. | ||
| If I... That's why when I do Korean or whatever, when I do it, even when I do it in my act, when it's broken Korean, people know that's an odyssey. | ||
| He got the tone of an older person, a respected person. | ||
| It's an odyssey. | ||
| A real Korean could tell who I was around to give me my accent or however I did it. | ||
| So I have a friend named Japanese Naki. | ||
| I know Japanese Naki. | ||
| Yeah, she is from Tokyo. | ||
| And for some reason, when she was in high school, moved to Alabama. | ||
| She learned English from Alabama people. | ||
| Whoa. | ||
| Which created one of the more hilarious accents I've ever heard in my life. | ||
| Oh my god, hell yeah! | ||
| I'm just like, where's she got a country? | ||
| She got a country accent. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| Yeah, she's the best. | ||
| And she likes lemon pepper chicken wings, too. | ||
| It's that kind of stuff. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| In other languages, there's all these weird tones that change the meaning of words. | ||
| It changes the meaning, especially... | ||
| Like in Korean in particular, right? | ||
| In Korean in particular, because you can tell the way people use their voice when they talk to people. | ||
| Older people always talk down to people. | ||
| It don't matter what you did. | ||
| It don't matter what it is for you to celebrate. | ||
| It's always like, ah, it wasn't enough. | ||
| Do you know that those problems in communication is why Korean Air only teaches pilots in English? | ||
| They only learn and communicate in English. | ||
| They're not allowed to communicate in Korean. | ||
| How do you know that? | ||
| Well, because they started, they recognized that there was an issue with the superior and dealing with a superior, like if you were my captain and I was your, I couldn't say certain things to you. | ||
| If the fucking plane's gonna crash. | ||
| Oh. | ||
| I can't simply say, you're doing it the wrong way. | ||
| You can't say it, but in English you can. | ||
| So they taught them to communicate in English because it changes the way, or they only use English, because it changes the way you communicate with people. | ||
| You don't have that cultural classification of a superior, of an older person who demands respect. | ||
| I get it, and that's the one thing people don't understand about, especially Korean culture, is the level of respect that they have. | ||
| People think it's like, oh, you don't fuck with me because I'm black. | ||
| No, the level of respect they have, they give a fuck about being older. | ||
| That's money, that's prestige, that's everything. | ||
| You being older in Korean culture, What's money? | ||
| You know, I was around Koreans a lot when I was a teenager. | ||
| I like this cultural nuance. | ||
| Korea is a fascinating culture. | ||
| What they don't have is like... | ||
| Like, Korean dads don't really have connection with their kids like that. | ||
| They don't have, like, the ultimate emotional, oh, you did a good job shit. | ||
| That's not even their job. | ||
| They're very hard on their kids. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| In general. | ||
| I had a good friend of mine who was a doctor. | ||
| He was going through his residency while he was on the national taekwondo team. | ||
| And the dude would literally be in school and he would take breaks to put his backpack on. | ||
| He'd fill the backpack up with books and run up staircases and go all the way back down and then go back to going to the library to finish his work. | ||
| And then he would find a way to go to the gym every night and he won the national championship. | ||
| And he's this Korean kid. | ||
| I've never met a person who worked harder in my life. | ||
| To this day, I think about that dude. | ||
| He was always tired. | ||
| I go, how you doing, man? | ||
| He goes, I'm always tired. | ||
| I'm always tired. | ||
| That motherfucker, every day would be in that gym. | ||
| Every day. | ||
| Jung-Sik Chang, that was his name. | ||
| Is he still alive? | ||
| I don't know. | ||
| I haven't talked to him in a long time. | ||
| He was a guy that was probably the star student of our team when I was competing, because he was this guy that was not just a national champion, but also a guy who did it while he was in his fucking medical residency. | ||
| The amount of work that he was capable of doing was insane. | ||
| And he was like, the way Koreans are, the way he would describe it to me, he's like, nothing's ever enough. | ||
| No matter what I do, it's never perfect. | ||
| No one's here to praise me. | ||
| I gotta keep working harder. | ||
| Sounds like a fun guy. | ||
| Jesus Christ. | ||
| The Korean military? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's like when somebody was outranked or whatever, they used to do this thing called education, where they could just talk to a little Korean motherfucker any kind of way they want. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| And they used to have this little greeting they used to do, and then you'd just see the young Korean just like... | ||
| They could do whatever they wanted to this motherfucker. | ||
| He could not do nothing but just show them respect. | ||
| Yeah, you have to take it. | ||
| They used to, like, it wasn't no rules like, if you do this, they would fucking beat them motherfuckers up or whatever, and they came back, no, no, no, no, no, no. | ||
| But there's one thing I like that you described. | ||
| What? | ||
| The reverence for older people. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| I feel like here in America, we be just discarding people. | ||
| Yeah, really quick. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| It's not wise. | ||
| We should get more than half price at the movies at a certain point. | ||
| Yeah, come on. | ||
| That's the least they could do. | ||
| Well, we've forgotten that it's important to have people that are older than you that figure life out a little bit better than you have to help lead the way. | ||
| When you guys were running for president, the way they kept going in on Joe Biden for being old, you know, whatever. | ||
| It's whatever. | ||
| So come on, man. | ||
| Well, Trump's old, too. | ||
| That's what I mean. | ||
| I like when Trump calls the elderly the elderly, as if that somehow doesn't apply to him. | ||
| Yo, that's how I am. | ||
| Yo, Dave. | ||
| I did a show once, right? | ||
| And I was so caught up in myself. | ||
| I was like, look at all these old head motherfuckers that I went to high school with, right? | ||
| I was like, old ass motherfuckers that I'm their same age. | ||
| I forgot the connection altogether. | ||
| That's real. | ||
| That's real, sir. | ||
| Every once in a while. | ||
| I'm old, but they are the older than me. | ||
| And they're the same age. | ||
| Yep, they're the exact same age. | ||
| I'm talking shit. | ||
| Yeah, all my friends around my age. | ||
| You don't feel it. | ||
| Yeah, they dress the part. | ||
| That's why it's very important for older people to actually have their shit together. | ||
| Because when older people actually have their shit together, maybe people will resume the idea of respecting older people. | ||
| Maybe it'll become more of a trend in the future. | ||
| But when older people are that old and they're still crazy, that's the problem with a guy like Trump. | ||
| That old and still, I won this, and big! | ||
| All the craziness... | ||
| Like, the girl he used to bang called her horse face on Twitter. | ||
| Like, that kind of craziness. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That kind of craziness is like... | ||
| But you come to expect it of him, though, and it became very entertaining, man. | ||
| He made it all entertaining, but then it was involving people's lives. | ||
| But it's like clothes. | ||
| Like, you know how you'll see an old person dressed up, and you know that maybe like 30 years ago, that outfit was the shit. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah. | |
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| But maybe he's not killing it today. | ||
| And it's like you can see him put it on one time and just be like, this is it. | ||
| Gone without me. | ||
| Fashion keep going. | ||
| Isn't it funny how fashion eventually comes back around? | ||
| And then you got dudes dressing up like they're old-timey photographers. | ||
| When I grew up this summer, for me, I just grew up with it. | ||
| I don't even give a fuck. | ||
| You know what I'm saying? | ||
| I remember this summer, son, I was starting to buy shit that had waterproof on it. | ||
| You know what I mean? | ||
| Reversible. | ||
| I was like, fuck that fucking city boy shit. | ||
| I was buying shit that was fitting for the condition and the weather that I was in. | ||
| Right. | ||
| Clothes become utilitarian. | ||
| Yeah, I was like... | ||
| Before you get out of a city. | ||
| Your guy wears work clothes for, you know... | ||
| To work, and it's cold. | ||
| That's right. | ||
| Everything's practical. | ||
| Alaskans understand that shit. | ||
| Boy, do they. | ||
| They get it. | ||
| It'd be a hard place to go. | ||
| If I had to go buy some clothes for a date in Alaska, boy, that's a tough one. | ||
| Yeah, you have nothing to do with it. | ||
| I hope you like waiters, bitch. | ||
| You got a few days a year where it's not cold outside. | ||
| And on those days, it's like 24 hours. | ||
| But those people are conditioned for it now. | ||
| But that's where it's weird when it's 24 hours sun. | ||
| Well, that was part of it. | ||
| They had all these signs up. | ||
| Because this was like in November. | ||
| It was like Game of Thrones. | ||
| Winter is coming. | ||
| And there were these signs that said, get your happy lights. | ||
| Have you heard of this? | ||
| No. | ||
| They're like UV lights that people put in their house to mimic sunshine. | ||
| Just so that they don't get depressed. | ||
| I couldn't imagine. | ||
| It's like they're homegrown, man. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Do you remember that there was a vampire movie a few years back called 30 Days of Night? | ||
| It's all about vampires that show up in Alaska because there's 30 days where it never gets light out. | ||
| Oh, that's a good premise. | ||
| So these vampires just fuck this town up for 30 days because they know when. | ||
| So they bring this vampire familiar that pulls the boat into the Anchorage shore, whatever the fuck they landed, and they get out in this small town and just wreak havoc on this town for 30 days. | ||
| Robin Williams and Al Pacino did a movie the opposite of that. | ||
| It's called Insomnia. | ||
| You ever seen that? | ||
| I didn't see that. | ||
| It was a weird character thing. | ||
| Pacino's character is a cop, and Robin Williams is a guy he's looking for, for a heinous crime, right? | ||
| The backdrop of the movie was that it was daylight for 24 hours a day, and the guy had terrible insomnia. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Wow. | |
| That's a rough way to live when it never gets dark out. | ||
| I remember doing it when I was in Anchorage. | ||
| I did shows up there with Orange Fear and we went fishing. | ||
| And it was like 2 o'clock in the morning and it was bright outside. | ||
| I was like, this is weird, man. | ||
| I would love that. | ||
| It's weird. | ||
| I would love it too. | ||
| Fishing at 2 o'clock? | ||
| Oh yeah, you can just keep going. | ||
| There's parts where it gets dark like barely for like an hour. | ||
| Did you fly fish? | ||
| You fly fish? | ||
| No, we were trolling for salmon. | ||
| How do you trope a salmon? | ||
| You pull a boat and you cast some lures in. | ||
| You're really trying to get the salmon aggravated. | ||
| That's what they want. | ||
| They're not really hungry at that point. | ||
| They're trying to fuck. | ||
| So when they get your lure, they're really pissed off at it more than anything. | ||
| Jesus Christ, people have thought of everything. | ||
| Who the fuck would think to aggravate a fish? | ||
| Aggravate salmon, yeah. | ||
| Somebody that needed that. | ||
| Yeah, there's certain salmon that only eat plankton. | ||
| They eat microscopic shit. | ||
| They don't really eat fish. | ||
| This is in a river you were doing it. | ||
| Yeah, you pull lures by... | ||
| I think that's... | ||
| Is that Chinook or Sockeye? | ||
| I'm trying to figure out which one doesn't really eat fish. | ||
| And the only time you catch them is when you piss them off. | ||
| I don't know nothing about my salmons. | ||
| Like, sockeye, I don't know my salmons have different personalities or anything, sir. | ||
| Well, some fish just eat fish, right? | ||
| And some fish just eat microscopic shit. | ||
| And there's one particular type of salmon that only eats microscopic shit. | ||
| And the way you catch it is by getting it pissed. | ||
| And that's in Alaska. | ||
| They do that out of, like, Bristol Bay. | ||
| I think that's Chinook. | ||
| Is that correct? | ||
| I'm trying to Salmon migrate, right? | ||
| Yeah, they migrate. | ||
| So are they saltwater or are they freshwater? | ||
| They're both. | ||
| They're both. | ||
| That's what I thought. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| They move through. | ||
| I forget what it's called. | ||
| But they go out to saltwater and they come back to spawn in freshwater. | ||
| And they have to do it in the same river. | ||
| So if you damn the river up, they're fucked and they die. | ||
| They don't know where to go. | ||
| And they never wind up reproducing. | ||
| Which one gone is the most money? | ||
| Salmon. | ||
| Salmon's huge. | ||
| Out of all fish, it's probably tuna. | ||
| Really? | ||
| Yeah, but they're running out of tuna, man. | ||
| They keep just jacking tuna. | ||
| Talk to those old tuna guys in Japan, and they're like, we used to see a lot of tuna. | ||
| Now you go to the tuna market, it's a fraction of what it used to be. | ||
| There's just not as much tuna left. | ||
| Yeah, people love sushi. | ||
| I know they do in Atlanta. | ||
| It's worth a lot of money. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Ha ha ha! | |
| What happened? | ||
| He's referring to it. | ||
| I know they love sushi in Atlanta, bro. | ||
| They had a big thing about sushi in Atlanta. | ||
| What happened about sushi in Atlanta? | ||

|
Quick question. | |
| Quick question before I go. | ||
| Because this is coming up. | ||
| The next time we meet, I want to ask you about what you think. | ||
| The vaccine. | ||
| Are you taking it? | ||
| I'll take it if it works. | ||
| If I feel that the doctors have all gotten their opinions behind it and they think... | ||
| You know what it is? | ||
| It's like an mRNA vaccine, this new vaccine. | ||
| It makes your body think that... | ||
| It doesn't introduce actual COVID into your system and you fight it off. | ||
| It makes your body think that it's COVID and your body builds the proper proteins to fight it off. | ||
| That's interesting. | ||
| A guy explained it to us yesterday, Nicholas Christakis. | ||
| He's from Yale. | ||
| He's a soybean boy. | ||
| No, he doesn't. | ||
| He's a good man. | ||
| He's a soybean boy. | ||
| He's a great man, and I won't let you disparage him. | ||
| No, I'm not disparaging him. | ||
| He's a doctor. | ||
| Anyway, he thinks the vaccine will be very effective. | ||
| And even if it doesn't keep you from getting it, it'll prevent or hopefully prevent you from getting a bad case of it. | ||
| I don't know, though. | ||
| So what would you need? | ||
| Would you need just the consensus of a body of doctors you trust? | ||
| And people's experiences, because people have already taken it. | ||
| So if people have taken it, what is the experience? | ||
| They say that they felt like shit for a few days. | ||
| That's it. | ||
| Now, is that true? | ||
| I mean, who are they? | ||
| Have you talked to them? | ||
| What's a few days? | ||
| And what do you mean by feel like shit? | ||
| Like, did you try running four days later and you still felt terrible? | ||
| So wait, apparently they're distributing this vaccine almost now, right? | ||
| I don't think it's totally ready, but it very soon will be ready. | ||
| And if it's effective, they're going to encourage people to take it. | ||
| It makes people feel nervous. | ||
| But then they say they're going to have it for like doctors and like essential people at the beginning of it. | ||
| Yeah, first. | ||
| And then it's going to probably people that are high risk, like older folks. | ||
| Yeah, but the thing is, it's going to have people have a sense of like there is something that could be done now. | ||
| Like it's a sense of hope. | ||
| It's a sense of progress. | ||
| It's a sense of like, you know, it was at one time when we didn't even have a thought of a vaccine. | ||
| Now we got Competitors and shit. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| People to think different. | ||
| Listen, if it works, we should take it. | ||
| But I know how people get real nervous about that kind of shit. | ||
| Black people don't fuck with vaccines. | ||
| I told you that, son. | ||
| How do you feel about it? | ||
| Dave, black people don't fuck with no vaccines, Dave. | ||
| Well, I mean, I feel like it's inconclusive. | ||
| Because your caveat was, I'd take it if I felt safe about it. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Well, that's just the thing. | ||
| Don't you feel like that same way? | ||
| Well, of course. | ||
| So now... | ||
| You know, for the first time, we're learning how a drug, the process of a drug, you know, going through trials. | ||
| We're learning this literally as a nation. | ||
| We're all watching this thing take place. | ||
| And an accelerated version of it. | ||
| An accelerated version of it. | ||
| Because usually a vaccine takes multiple years to develop. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So this is really quick to be able to have something this quick and turn it around. | ||
| It's like those movies where they find a cure by the end and you're like, oh, that's bullshit. | ||
| They're doing it. | ||
| Not a cure, but a vaccine is a big deal. | ||
| The good thing is, if another one comes around, they're going to be more prepared to do something like this quicker. | ||
| Right. | ||
| I think people needed to really understand that in our lifetime, something can kill the world's economy and kill hundreds of thousands of people here and a million people worldwide. | ||
| I think everybody understood that. | ||
| I think we knew it, but I don't think we really expected it. | ||
| They knew it. | ||
| The Obama administration had prepared for precisely that eventuality. | ||
| But I mean, us. | ||
| Of course, yeah. | ||
| We couldn't wrap our mind around it. | ||
| Even if they told you, even if you watched Bill Gates' speech at TED Talk in 2015, you would never internalize it and think there's a pandemic coming. | ||
| Now we know. | ||
| Nobody. | ||
| Now we know there is. | ||
| Now we're going to want to invest in the medical infrastructure to make sure that they prepare better next time. | ||
| Hopefully people are going to learn from this. | ||
| Oh yeah, 100%. | ||
| People know nothing is going to be new. | ||
| There's nothing going to be new about it. | ||
| Well, the debate is largely philosophical, right? | ||
| I mean, to this end, there's two schools of thought. | ||
| One school thought it's just gonna be what it's gonna be, and you gotta keep moving. | ||
| Like, why close anything? | ||
| And the other school thought, which I thought was, you know, it was more than just a philosophy. | ||
| It was a science. | ||
| Remember the premise when they locked us up was we have to wait to catch up to our medical infrastructure. | ||
| So we don't overburden our medical infrastructure. | ||
| We gotta suppress the disease till we can build up the infrastructure. | ||
| And they gave us an early estimate of two weeks. | ||
| This is how a comedian does. | ||
| When a comedian's doing a real long setting, he goes, one more thing before I go. | ||
| And then he does that four or five times and you realize, oh, this guy's gonna do another hour. | ||
| Oh yeah, that's so fucking rude. | ||
| Yeah, but you know that trick? | ||
| That's what the pandemic, the quarantine felt like. | ||
| Two more weeks, three more weeks. | ||
| Maybe we'll open bars and, you know, that kind of shit. | ||
| But there's no way to control it other than create it yourself, right? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| Like, the whole vibe of the scene, right? | ||
| The vibe of which scene? | ||
| The pandemic. | ||
| You said, how do we get used to it? | ||
| What can we do about it? | ||
| Well, he's also saying, here's the thing. | ||
| We never signed up to let people tell us that we can and can't take risks or go to work. | ||
| And by saying that if you do it, you're going to kill other people. | ||
| That's what changed the game. | ||
| And so everybody has to figure out how much of that they're willing to accept and how much of that are they not and whether or not they're willing to take a shot. | ||
| Take this vaccine without knowing the long-term effects of it or worrying about the long-term effects of it. | ||
| And some people are naturally averse to taking any kind of medication. | ||
| They don't want to do it. | ||
| And other people are like, if you tell me it's good and all the doctors agree and it'll help mankind, I'll fucking do it. | ||
| That's how I feel. | ||
| Listen, polio, okay? | ||
| Shit doesn't exist anymore. | ||
| Smallpox doesn't exist anymore. | ||
| At least not in the numbers that it used to, right? | ||
| Yeah, but you got the old vaccine for that. | ||
| That's the old vaccine. | ||
| But that's because of vaccines. | ||
| The idea that vaccines have done... | ||
| Bad things only or that they're dangerous only. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| Like, vaccines are the responsible for the giant population of people. | ||
| It's not vaccines. | ||
| I think at the core of this is just trust. | ||
| Yes. | ||
| Do you trust these sources? | ||
| And people realize that they're at the mercy of someone that they don't necessarily trust. | ||
| Right. | ||
| That's the rub. | ||
| Well, maybe that's the problem. | ||
| Don't touch your own face and don't go outside. | ||
| I'll tell you when to come out. | ||
| Love of Renown Liar. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right. | |
| It's a tough one. | ||
| That was a tough one. | ||
| Especially here... | ||
| It goes something really, touches something really sore in the core of an American's identity. | ||
| Like you said, how can you tell me to do this? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It's crazy, man. | ||
| This was a tough one here. | ||
| It's a weird one. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| It makes us redefine what it is to be a person. | ||
| You know, like if all of a sudden you have other people that got elected into a position of power. | ||
| That's all they did. | ||
| They won a popularity contest and they're dictating whether things go this way or that way. | ||
| And they don't necessarily have the right answer. | ||
| They just have their own answer. | ||
| And Dallas is doing it different than this town. | ||
| And you know, Washington State's doing it different than Nevada. | ||
| Everyone's doing it different. | ||
| But everybody's trying to do it also. | ||
| Yeah, but governors can tell you what you can and can't do. | ||
| It gets real weird. | ||
| And I get it. | ||
| They're trying to keep the hospital numbers down. | ||
| But you told us it was going to be two weeks. | ||
| Like you guys said two weeks and now here we are like nine months later and everyone's just waiting only for a vaccine. | ||
| But I'm not speaking about, you know, if it's right, if it's wrong. | ||
| I'm not speaking about it like that. | ||
| I'm just saying whatever it was, that was very difficult. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That was very difficult. | ||
| Very difficult. | ||
| You know, I was fine. | ||
| But not knowing when you can work, not being able to move around, not being able to see my mother. | ||
| You know, you would never thought. | ||
| If someone had told me 11 months ago. | ||
| Even the night before, the last night we were on tour, what were we in? | ||
| Milwaukee. | ||
| Yes, it was Pabst. | ||
| And the last show, it was the last night between shows, right? | ||
| It's a two-show night. | ||
| And the energy had changed. | ||
| It went from festive to, like, people looked worried when I got off stage. | ||
| Tom Hanks had had it, the one NBA guy who had touched everything and had it. | ||
| And then the horn starts ringing that they're going to shut the country down. | ||
| I literally go, that's impossible. | ||
| What, are you going to shut down the world? | ||
| It's impossible. | ||
| This is what I thought, my initial reaction. | ||
| But the energy changed. | ||
| Now I go out and do the second show, and immediately, I wasn't even thinking about this shit earlier that night. | ||
| I come out on stage, and everybody reached their hand, and I thought about it. | ||
| Okay, I start, you know, shaking people's hands. | ||
| Oh, I'm worried. | ||
| But the day before, wouldn't have even been concerned about it. | ||
| Went into the green room for 40 minutes and talked to people who'd been glued to the television and watching the news, and then they scared the shit out of me. | ||
| My behavior changed almost instantly. | ||
| It was interesting. | ||
| I don't want to get too heavy. | ||
| I mean, I'm only hanging out. | ||
| No, man. | ||
| It's not too heavy. | ||
| That's exactly how I felt about it, too. | ||
| I remember I shook a dude's hand on a flight. | ||
| I was flying to Vegas for the fights. | ||
| It was like one of the last fights before they shut it down. | ||
| And some dude goes, I don't know, you want to shake hands? | ||
| I was like, I'll shake your hand. | ||
| He shook hands. | ||
| He had a mask on already. | ||
| I was like, wow. | ||
| He was ready to go down. | ||
| I think this was the very beginning of March. | ||
| This was the first time I would have been tested at any capacity was when I did your show that time. | ||
| That was the first time I had an antibody test or anything. | ||
| I would have never expected that here we would be deep into November and we're all still kind of locked down. | ||
| When this started, you lived in LA. You had no plans to come here. | ||
| Yeah, you're in Texas. | ||
| Think about it. | ||
| Your whole life has changed. | ||
| What's interesting about this time, there's another thing we should talk about next time I come. | ||
| Is that in mass, it feels like we're rewriting our social contracts. | ||
| You know, the whole thing. | ||
| And COVID is an accelerant on this process that I could have never imagined. | ||
| You know, they're locked inside, man. | ||
| People are stuck in our house with their choices. | ||
| Do you like your house? | ||
| Do you like who you're with? | ||
| Do you like these things you've accumulated? | ||
| I hope you like them because you're stuck with them. | ||
| I made great choices. | ||
| I like my choices. | ||
| You know, when I was faced with it like that, I was like, whew! | ||
| I had it much better than many people. | ||
| But imagine people doing that in mass. | ||
| It's pretty powerful. | ||
| It's a pretty powerful thought. | ||
| What does this do to a society? | ||
| This type of isolation and... | ||
| And almost forced reflection. | ||
| Yeah, which is not necessarily a bad thing. | ||
| Right. | ||
| And we've always talked about how life is a rat race, right? | ||
| People get stuck in this rat race. | ||
| It feels never-ending. | ||
| It's not good that all these people lost their jobs. | ||
| It's not good that all these people are going to lose where they live. | ||
| Not at all. | ||
| But it might help some people recognize that if you just keep going in this rat race, it never ends. | ||
| You've got to figure out a way out. | ||
| And now is a better time to figure out a way out than ever. | ||
| Because you kind of have to. | ||
| You kind of have to. | ||
| And society, as it existed 10 months ago, it's not the same place. | ||
| It's not the same. | ||
| What's the country that is a country... | ||
| Maybe somewhere in the South Pacific or something, that measures their success as a nation with what they call their gross national happiness. | ||
| It's a totally different premise. | ||
| What country is that? | ||
| I can't remember. | ||
| Maybe you Google gross national happiness. | ||
| Thanks, fingers. | ||

|
It says Bhutan. | |
| There it is, Bhutan. | ||
| There you go. | ||
| This is a real principle. | ||
| It's a philosophy that guides the government. | ||
| Think about this. | ||
| It's a philosophy that guides the government of Bhutan. | ||
| It includes an index which is used to measure the collective happiness. | ||
| This is the metric that they use To define their success. | ||
| If they tried that in America, they'd turn it into an app and it would fuck up everything. | ||
| Oh my God. | ||
| People would just be striving to win the points on the app. | ||
| It would make people insane. | ||
| They'd get addicted to trying to be a better person. | ||
| This is a vastly better metric. | ||
| I'm not a communist or none of that shit, but I think that I know too many people who are very wealthy Who had what I consider a poor quality of life. | ||
| Just because, like you say, the wealth is the point. | ||
| Yeah, they chased it. | ||
| They chased it. | ||
| They didn't have any friends. | ||
| Right, you're very wealthy. | ||
| You're hunting. | ||
| You love your dog. | ||
| Your dog hangs out with you like fucking Scooby-Doo. | ||
| Your kids like you. | ||
| You're living an adventure of a life. | ||
| Now you're doing the same thing you were doing in L.A. in a totally different city just because you're following that knowing feeling, I gotta be free. | ||
| Whatever it is. | ||
| There's a little bit of that and then there's also like I think you're better off living in a place with less people. | ||
| I think when you live to be you live in a place with like LA it's great in that there's a lot of resources there's a lot of shit happening there's a lot of people but it's bad in that Sometimes people, it diminishes the value of people a little bit when there's so many of them. | ||
| Like people stop thinking about people being as valuable. | ||
| In LA, I don't even think that it's that. | ||
| For me, the thing that I always had a hard time with was the point of the place was show business. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| So when I was coming up in my career, everything reminded me of the things I didn't have. | ||
| And nothing let me appreciate where I was. | ||
| And then, now I love it. | ||
| It's a winner's circle. | ||
| I'm doing great. | ||
| So I can get in any restaurant. | ||
| But I remember what it felt like being there. | ||
| It's like, that's why I don't live there. | ||
| No disrespect to LA, but it's like, if I like a restaurant, I don't move in. | ||
| I just come when I want to eat. | ||
| I'm going to live in the restaurant. | ||
| I think your idea of living in another place gives you perspective. | ||
| There's no question. | ||
| It's the best way to have perspective. | ||
| If you're stuck in that showbiz world, that becomes your culture. | ||
| Your culture is like this tiny fraction of the human beings in the world and so many people just start relating only to people in that culture. | ||
| Like that, you can get real isolated that way. | ||
| Yeah, and for what we do for a living, I was that conducive to anything that we want to achieve. | ||
| No, it's so wise. | ||
| Artistically. | ||
| No, it's a very wise decision. | ||
| Like really wise. | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| That smells great, man. | ||
| I told you, son! | ||
| That's the one, son! | ||
| That candle is the shit. | ||
| I'll do a commercial for it right now. | ||
| You can cut this out or think. | ||
| Hi, I'm Dave Chappelle, and this is a Black Ash Candle. | ||
| It smells way better than it sounds. | ||
| Take it from me and Ashy Larry. | ||
| Black ass, bitch. | ||
| Cut. | ||
| One take. | ||
| It was beautiful. | ||
| Give it to me, I'll light it. | ||
| Oh yeah, do that. | ||
| Get the scent going. | ||
| So when you're touring now, do you just pick a city and say, oh, I'm going to do Denver three nights in a row, find me a venue? | ||
| Well, I don't know if I want this on a show, but just between us. | ||
| Well, you could, I don't know. | ||
| I'm not trying to. | ||
| We don't have to put anything on the show. | ||
| But I want to post up here for like, you know, a few weeks. | ||
| It's cold in Ohio. | ||
| I like playing outdoors. | ||
| I like this Stubbs place a lot. | ||
| Beautiful. | ||
| It's rocking. | ||
| So that's why I say, we do the damn thing. | ||
| I'm thinking around December, January. | ||
| Stay here for four or six weeks. | ||
| Try to finish the act that I was... | ||
| Boy, I was close. | ||
| When we were supposed to do those shows... | ||
|

|
Man, that summer was going to be fire, son! | |
| Me and Joe Rogan went on sale with some tickets. | ||
| This is Joe. | ||
| We must have sold 36,000 tickets in like 10 minutes. | ||
| It was insane. | ||
| We were so excited to do the show. | ||
| And like a week or two before... | ||
| The shutdown happened. | ||
| I was part of that shit, son. | ||
| It was about to be nice. | ||
| The ones we did were fun, too, though. | ||
| What was it? | ||
| Tacoma? | ||
| I've never seen you at Beth. | ||
| Remember when we watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and all that shit? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yes! | |
| It was so much fun, man. | ||
| At 2 o'clock in the morning. | ||
| The conversations. | ||
| Was I there? | ||
| Yeah, you were there. | ||
| That was when we were in... | ||
|
unidentified
|
Utah? | |
| No, that wasn't Utah. | ||
| No, it was Seattle. | ||
| Yeah, it was Tacoma. | ||
| Tacoma in the Seattle area. | ||
| Tacoma Dome, that's right. | ||
| That was fun, man. | ||
| That show was fire. | ||
| That was fun. | ||
| That was so much fun. | ||
| And the conversations we'd have in the green room. | ||
| You know, every tour has its own culture, but the culture of this tour that we did together was great. | ||
| Yeah, Ian Edwards, who was traveling with you. | ||
| He was always famine, man. | ||
| He was always tired from not getting the right proteins, Ian. | ||
| Yo, this nigga slept the whole joint, son! | ||
| But Ian and I, the first time I had ever left the country, I was like 18, I had my 19th birthday there in Scotland. | ||
| I did the Edinburgh Festival, and Ian Edwards was on the festival doing a show. | ||
| You know, black dudes from the West, like way West. | ||
| Man, we hit it off. | ||
| We would crack each other up. | ||
| And then, bam, I just see them on the road. | ||
| Made me feel 20 years younger. | ||
| And we all sit around in the green room. | ||
| The lights are red. | ||
| Music's good. | ||
| Really good vibes. | ||
| Really good company. | ||
| It was a perfect match. | ||
| You nail it with the red lights in your room. | ||
| It changes everything. | ||
| I'm going to steal that from you. | ||
| Oh man, man. | ||
| Please be my guest. | ||
| Maybe I'll go with purple. | ||
| Just to mix it up. | ||
| It's all about the ombre. | ||
| Because I used to just sit in a room with hard white lights and a fruit plate that I didn't know how long it had been there. | ||
| And no music. | ||
| And you know, the early days, no frenzy. | ||
| Just sitting in there with maybe a joke book. | ||
| Just waiting. | ||
| Just waiting. | ||
| All the time just waiting. | ||
| Just waiting. | ||
| And at some point you realize... | ||
| Well, this has got to be fun. | ||
| I can't just be sitting in these rooms looking at these walls. | ||
| Who the fuck has to bring a book to work? | ||
| It was that. | ||
| So I just started sexing it up, just having fun. | ||
| And then when you start getting big on the road, You start bringing your friends out and all that shit. | ||
| Then it gets really fun. | ||
| And you become like a surrogate family. | ||
| The longer you stay out together, you learn each other's creature habits. | ||
| You find out shit about each other you don't know. | ||
| You see what people are made of. | ||
| I love the road. | ||
| We had so much fucking fun. | ||
| Yeah, you would love that Ohio shit. | ||
| I wish I could have gone, but that's when I was planning on coming here. | ||
| Not doing any stand-up. | ||
| I had my drone that night. | ||
| Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. | ||
| We had my drone out. | ||
| I don't even know how to fly my own drone. | ||
| One of my friends was flying the drone, and it was late at night. | ||
| We was like, yo, get the drone shot. | ||
| So we get the drone shots. | ||
| And then the drone went up in the air. | ||
| It's like about 2 o'clock in the morning, and we thought we lost the drone. | ||
| We didn't see no red lights, no blue lights. | ||
| It was just God. | ||
| We was like, oh, shit. | ||
| Nigga, we gotta go find a drone. | ||
| We like, we about to get out of here. | ||
| We thought we lost the drone. | ||
| The drone was supposed to be at the bed and breakfast. | ||
| How well can you control those things? | ||
| Like, the people that know how to drive it, they can control it where they can't see it through, like, measurements and distance and everything. | ||
| These things are good, though. | ||
| They had buttons on there, you know, they could track a person or an object. | ||
| If you wanted to just follow a car, anything like that. | ||
| You remember in LA, the paparazzi started doing all this crazy drone shit. | ||
| I'm sure they got you. | ||
| The drone guys. | ||
| We had that drone shot. | ||
| I was drinking coffee. | ||
| You hear the buzzing. | ||
| Yeah, you hear the shit. | ||
| And you know that there's a dude a block away somewhere. | ||
| Isn't that weird? | ||
| They could kind of find you now with a drone. | ||
| When we did the drone shot from the place, we thought we lost it. | ||
| We was going to go and search. | ||
| I was like, get my motherfucking drone, nigga. | ||
| Right? | ||
| We get ready, get everybody in the car to go find his drone. | ||
| We don't see it in the sky nowhere. | ||
| All of a sudden, it was like a movie. | ||
| We saw these blue lights come up, and we heard the zzzz, and that motherfucker came. | ||
| Everybody was like, And that shit came all the way back to hell, son. | ||
| That was a good shot. | ||
| That was a great shot. | ||
| I met the governor of Texas. | ||
| I went to the mansion to hang out with him, Governor Abbott. | ||
| And I had whiskey and barbecue with him. | ||
| And while we're hanging out at his house, a drone comes by. | ||
| And hovers in the sky. | ||
| That's the one. | ||
| The light goes on and we're watching this drone. | ||
| The security guys are trying to figure out where the drone's coming from and who's got the drone. | ||
| And it turned out to be like the fire department. | ||
| Really? | ||
| The fire department has their own drone. | ||
| And they're flying their drone around looking for stuff. | ||
| That makes a lot of sense, man. | ||
| But that's like how you can spot fires. | ||
| How they can figure out what's going on. | ||
| If there's some sort of a car accident, they could probably send a drone out. | ||
| Get video image of it so they know what to expect when they get there. | ||
| Makes sense, right? | ||
| There's a new car like that. | ||
| It's a drone? | ||
| The headlights are drones. | ||
| You gotta look this up, man. | ||
| What is it? | ||
| Like the headlights fly away? | ||
| What do you mean? | ||
| The headlights are attached to the car, right? | ||
| They're on. | ||
| If you get out of the car, they pop off and start flying around and make a path of light. | ||
| I think that's the thing. | ||
| Audi created an autonomous off-roader that uses flying drones to illuminate the road instead of headlights. | ||
| Show Joe the video. | ||
| What? | ||
| It's ill as fuck. | ||
| Oh my god, they're ahead of the car. | ||
| The fucking headlights are ahead of the car. | ||
| It's the illest shit I've ever seen. | ||
| That's some Star Wars shit, right? | ||
| Yeah, precision drones. | ||
| If you have the key in your pocket, they'll follow you like if you're walking in the woods. | ||
| It's crazy. | ||
| That thing looks wild. | ||
| It looks like some shit Jamie Foxx drives already. | ||
| He already has one of those. | ||
| I ran into it at the gas station. | ||
| Jamie Foxx probably already has this. | ||
| He has one of those Resvanis. | ||
| Isn't that what it's called? | ||
| It's like a Resvani tank. | ||
| I ran into him at the gas station. | ||
| I was like, who the fuck is driving that thing? | ||
| Jamie Foxx, what's up? | ||
| That thing looks awesome, though. | ||
| That Audi? | ||
| That's a slick-looking car, too. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| Somewhere online, there's a video demonstration. | ||
| And it's probably gonna be electric, right? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Is it? | ||
| Yeah, everything's electric now. | ||
| Look at this! | ||
| Look at this shit! | ||
| It's that. | ||
| Donnell, look at this! | ||
| Look at this! | ||
| Look at this! | ||
| Watch when it's driving. | ||
| Oh shit, that's the headlights? | ||
| Yes! | ||
| The headlights are ahead, making the road bright. | ||
| Yo, that's some gangster shit right there, son. | ||
| They're flying like little UFOs. | ||
| That's nuts. | ||
| Could you imagine if you saw that drive by you somewhere? | ||
| Yeah. | ||
| Be like, oh my god, I think I saw an alien. | ||
| That's crazy. | ||
| That's going to be the future. | ||
| Look at that shit. | ||
| They fly ahead of you and illuminate the road. | ||
| That's bananas. | ||
| And you just have to trust them with your little bitch-ass lights. | ||
| Soybeans, man! | ||
| You have to trust the daddies that are flying around. | ||
| That's how the government's going to control you. | ||
| Man, I want a slice of pizza, man. | ||
| Keep you going on their road. | ||
| No, no, no. | ||
| You don't want to look at that road. | ||
| That road's dark. | ||
| The drones only go on this road. | ||
| Come on. | ||
| Son, where can I get pizza? | ||
| Probably a pizza place. | ||
| Find a guest. | ||
| Joe, come on, man. | ||
| You started like this, man. | ||
| Why are you doing this to me, man? | ||
| We'll find a pizza place for you. | ||
| What kind of pizza do you want? | ||
| Thin crust. | ||
| I could get a pizza pizza. | ||
| A pizza pizza? | ||
| A piece of pizza. | ||
| A piece of pizza. | ||
