sir a little [ __ ] look look wait a minute we as you said sinister that's important like he has he has moments of being sinister but not being yeah but there's nobody smoked like his character is that [ __ ] right and then when he becomes that [ __ ] for the most part is what people that he loved and close to him well that's yeah that's it that's how you treat you know friends yeah you don't say it's like like certain [ __ ] things he do to me he probably necessarily do it to anybody that's good how close you how much he respects you yeah you're only nice to the people you're only nice to the people that you like you mean they dealing with yeah that's true you know yeah but but if anybody asked a question if I could say anybody just close to not having any because his [ __ ] is almost it's like new AIDS yeah he's got new [ __ ] new AIDS no it's like having new AIDS yeah we're like you could both defect then you have such a small amount of he's dead it's untraceable mean as new AIDS

don't like people don't die no it's funny they don't bro yeah and it's so funny you said that because like doing the COBE [ __ ] I like not answer all phone calls you know me do just in case because you don't know what you gonna get the kobe call yeah that's true that is very true you don't know you can get the kobe call you don't want to be like a [ __ ] dying you and then he was like [ __ ] i

said yo you are right I said oh you don't got you don't got to covert he said no [ __ ] I got AIDS you're like this yo I was ID boy you had me worried it makes me think like anybody I've ever hung out with in the past you know a couple of months that I'm gonna get a phone call from them it's the same feeling that you know that when you're dating girls and you're waiting for a phone call from a girl from way back that's like hey you probably need to get tested that's like the same anxiety when somebody's like we hung out four months ago what do you mean I haven't seen oh no no no [ __ ] if you ever say you probably need to get you did yeah he is the one who couldn't make you might have burnt me [ __ ] like probably is doodoo yes just leave out the word probably you need to get yes but that does they do throw that in there people girls ago you might you probably you might want to get tested you cuz Justin just in case cuz I it's always this weird shaky although I had a girl in college the first time I got I got I got burnt up she smoked she was real honest she was like hey I've got some [ __ ] go go in your got it for sure you don't know but I respected the fact that she just said she told me right away she's like not gonna lie I found out you're you're you I got when I was in Air Force it was [ __ ] getting toasted so much yo that's like a thing by the way they say that everyone gets burnt in the in the arm for Co they say Korea this is like you say you kid mothers say you ain't okay so you been a career unless you got some smoke no new phrasing else I want all the smoke there all the smoke and all of it it was so funny cuz [ __ ] would be in there right like Monday morning [ __ ] to be like [ __ ] be able to joint like they say what are you here for anyone I just saw rankle cuz the sheet is right there with everybody sore a sore tooth you have a sword - yep but [ __ ] go lipping in his [ __ ] and did a like doc they could give me a shot let me get the [ __ ] out of here but they had guys when I was in arm when I was in the Air Force or not stationed in Korea they had [ __ ] was right right a die I wasn't no rather die [ __ ] they have my [ __ ] that was getting smoked so much they was getting charged did you will the ruction of government property really in the military so what what happens when you get you've got an improperly first up when you sign a paper they own your ass you gonna gut the government hold you but wait a minute when something like that happens what's the punishment well like what do they put you through you um if you get charged with destruction of government property you got different less levels of disciplinary actions yeah like one being lor lor is a little recommend a letter of reprimand just somebody writing to me nobody isn't me no but the mean note equals them you get enough of those mean notes yeah did you get an article 15 what the [ __ ] is that article 15 it's like five mean notes and more so childish no it's so you're gonna get five mean notes then you're gonna get an article but this the way that is is cuz so once you get L ORS the mean notes you still can make the same amount of money get the same Mike then when you start getting article fifteens they start you get demoted because you can see you get Hannah who's rank over that yeah that's so that's the set of it that's one of the reasons why I got out because I was like they're not gonna kick me out now what I see with it gold how many mean notes did you get I have probably ten mean notes oh [ __ ] yeah and I was like I was at all sorts of [ __ ] I was a lor [ __ ] you know I was gay that was my mo ours likes guys it was a special ed right you never said you weren't your weren't dumb you just want to be around all the fun kids

long were you there I was in I was stationed in Korea for a year and I was in the Air Force for four years so but I knew like it was gunning for me Matt and tipsy be like oh he got it about five mean notes let's give some more like in fact almost every Monday or every other Monday I know I used to hear from Mike Cosmo in charge I don't know we ranked it was first shirt or whatever this was the phrase they use with me all the time look me right in my face and I had to listen to this at the position of attention you know you can't you've got when [ __ ] gotta boot sir you gotta just be like this and standing still you can't be like dis you're thinking it you can't think about you can't you got to look I got to be in your pupils right right and every Monday there was airman Rawlings your blatant disregard for a stab your blatant like we got disregard you just don't give a [ __ ] you did it on purpose you did a yeah if they say your blatant disregard for established military military policies shows a lack of military bearing and integrity damn that hurt like genuinely didn't ever pay did it ever bother I heard all the time yeah I didn't mean [ __ ] huh the only time it meant something to me I was supposed to leave Korea right right what year was this this was I don't give up I'll just say it was this year right but I dunno so you're ready to go you ready no I'm not ready

his father ha ha ha yo yo act yo if I'd look the Bible like hey I know he'd be like he'll be like dad Papa no he would just because of the tone of my voice yeah the fact that I'm older than him and

lord [ __ ] that worked in the clothes of a cèlle [ __ ] is [ __ ] take me coolly [ __ ] it's a Jamaa alright got it like that's one thing about Korean culture I respect it is the way they respect elders yeah and it didn't really matter what your position was in life if you were older it still gave respect you get respect you be out in all the time well let me ask you this was the ahjummas in charge of the other girls selling selling ass how'd you miles you sell [ __ ] - probably - it's part of the economy I know it sounds [ __ ] that's just queen [ __ ] once you get over it you graduate to being a Naja man you like watch over the other little graduate you get burnt too much you know it's like you get so busy right like Vegas work in the pool when they're 24 they're like you gotta go are Kelly would never you know I'd you mom's grow into some time they some of them soda [ __ ] some of them didn't right but it was respect and they ran everything they ran like the brothels they ran part of clubs and random bulgogi tents at night and one nights or the last night I'm there we always ended out night by gonna get some foolish it so we just freakin and then I don't I don't even know the origin of it I don't know how it started but I got into a fight with this staff sergeant I don't yet she had two stripes I gotta focus - me and my buddy Staff Sergeant is higher high up not really enough for me it was I only had two stripes right I was doing I was my first duty station and I get a five this [ __ ] and I've been weak at the fighting [ __ ] like kicking him out [ __ ] and then I was drugged and my man started kicking him oh you're hoping is that all we know like we didn't know what I'll admit right right but I knew it wasn't gonna be sweet so I had a little chick I used to [ __ ] with downtown and I went to her house I was like I can't go to the base right now I'm hot as a [ __ ] and I'm a police right I'm like I'm hot like like they're not gonna know and that's i'ma go in the morning she was like oh yeah I took two states I go cuz I said about her the day before right she's I thought she stays I go what have an eggy I'm like man I got [ __ ] gonna fight so I go back the next day on base in the morning and I worked the front gate cuz I was a cop and one of my buddies he was like man I don't know what story you made up about tonight but you better have your [ __ ] together um I would say say cuz they're looking for you I'm a black dude in Korea one yeah it's so easy to profile me right every Korean is like right there right there right there yeah but they'd like me the funny thing about it the Koreans like me yeah they call me [ __ ] man [ __ ] man they cuz I always cry Joey say why are you all the time [ __ ] you days buddies you every day until I beg your baby like why your time my time nighttime daytime everybody time too much [ __ ] man that's why why are you all the time but they loved it they loved it we are they relish it I don't really connected with them like I used to [ __ ] with you I swear at the front gate and like in Korean culture if you say a person's full name like the first name middle and last name it's kind of condescending to talking to a kid it's [ __ ] down you say that to a grown man is like saying you're like a total Wow yeah it's like I'm superior I'm older like what are you supposed to say it's a different tone like yeah like if my tag I use where I remember his name Kim Jae sung kim chase some chicks on yes a very Korean name yeah that's its current this is Bobby Lee names Bobby Lee is a yeah Bobby Lee's my guy Bobby Bobby come here from from Kentucky come play some sound yo this dude this dude that you knew what was his name Kim say him chase him chase song any was my do we always crack jobs each other he didn't want to busk we had to come with every bus that came into the base we had to check it cuz you got my first trying to sneak on a base right illegally work and all kind of [ __ ] right but this is a base with nuclear weapons so we can't just have anybody when you're doing whatever so when the bus would come the way you say bus is coming bus and da bus and I check Hodja bus on that check Hodja bus and uh check Hodja what does a bus coming let's go check it let's go we have to go check it out yeah so I wouldn't say your whole name be like Oh sundar check ha ha right yes I go do it [ __ ] ah let's go do it together okay put a vice say Kim chase huh Kim chase huh bus and AH chick ha ha I just say that in that [ __ ] used to give various cuz the older Korean people knew how [ __ ] up it was to do it it's like talk call it's like when your parents says you're like somebody says your middle name it's oh yeah yeah yeah oh did we say no it's white white white which gameplay why why is it why you it's a great day to say kim jaeseong what's a Dodger con job like you talk to me tough did they ever laugh about her know that he's laughed all the time like yeah we the thing that I respected about me was that I took the time to try to learn that language right did that mode did most soldiers just not forgive your people yeah my people my people Chinese [Laughter] but I really was fascinated with your culture yeah and I was fascinated with learning language because I want to be able to communicate because I knew to get [ __ ] down man yeah yeah better speak what if I could freak some career right there be like oh this way you say hey go talk to kid what's that doctor cares I'm smile he's always smiling smart right thank you the company knew you figured out that you figured it out yeah I get a couple case that's like $10 off the price yeah you got like they really got local prices man don't hos this so funny the hoes love for me to make a laugh really yo they used to just scrout around me it's funny I'm seeing it now it'd be one [ __ ] at the bar hajima and did a too bad and they always used to love to [ __ ] hover around me and just pop cuz like all it do is I don't know it nobody smoke smoke as much as me you knew and what was it like what was the what's the reasoning for that like did you just figure you were like I'm gonna figure this out because it's gonna be easier for me if I know their language or was it was it was I understood the attempt to try to speak their language just separates you right you are you get you get you don't says like that did not just know like you know I wanted to be able to make them laugh and like I would learn a couple of senses whatever and it was really like punchlines this [ __ ] you know yeah and I could in person was that joke it was at the first like images have you becoming a comedian not um no it wasn't till I got out of military but I'm saying this must have been some of the structural work mentally for you to understand how valuable making people laugh is and that had to have some kind of looked right back at it I was like that's what it was but back then it was just back then it was just that you being you oh yeah I love to have fun right I mean I'd love to have fun like we were like when we had like days off a lot of almost all the Americans they would he just go downtown or they just hang around on base but I met these friends at the front gates could as always like to Americans and to Korean yeah rock guys Republic of Korea police or just Republic of Korea Air Force you know you working with these guys for like eight days eight hours 12 hours and it's like there on one side and we're on the other side two over there and two over here and all day you just let people come in the gate so you go inside the gate check and you just start talking to monthly right and then if you really care I some of them didn't want to learn no like [ __ ] that but it was some that was like they just one day we just trade in words you know you learn the curse words first right it's the old rule it's not a rule but that's just for the most part it's the easiest yeah you know you work in a restaurant you're gonna know customers in Spanish yeah and you get and then you get the reaction of it but then after a while it's just like I really like I was really into it I used to know how to write my name in Korean and then the Korean guys whenever our days with some of my friends when our days would match up I would travel to their hometown really yeah it's live stay in their hometown yeah did so funny it was like dinner with him and [ __ ] yeah it was like it was like saying a [ __ ] from San Francisco or New York going in a no disrespect to Yellow Springs for the weekend right you don't say southern just talk to the country in that way we're talking to country like we it was was so like I sometimes you ever gone there and they've never seen a black guy before 100,000 every almost every time everywhere I went you were the first bin the last I've ever seen yep right um I think like I don't even know where I went I know I trusted those guys cuz we work together but I know we quit like trains trains buses to get to a place and then it's like [ __ ] are like like just stare you everywhere I went yeah but it was almost like I was Muhammad Ali or something over there it's like I was like instantly American or African and I'm pretty sure they didn't thinking of Africans okay so there's American right they probably attend I know they look at me say where did this [ __ ] come from what did he grow these books and everywhere every time I would do something with my friends it was like a competition it was like the Olympics what do you mean like when he did his little like um like amusement park area like a little place you know all these place like boardwalk area and everybody has that um the fist game or the punch machine yeah yeah yeah I went up to that a crowd gathered around there was bet money on his side because it was a black dude doing a punching bag it was like a USA I'm a u.s. hey on everything right right right I even learned how to play somebody the Korean board games you know like I learned like [ __ ] with Korean letters and I was like their version of Monopoly and [ __ ] yeah yeah they had different games like dominoes stuff like that isla de [ __ ] and then I'm everywhere I went it was a competition every way it was I bet money on you and I was hustling to now hustling but I would come with like a case of a beer mm-hmm like American beer and I would my preference I like Korean beer but I would go with a case of beer then I start trade [ __ ] did they like American beer they like anything American right so like Budweiser Budweiser I was getting six I feel like I'm in jail right now but why I was getting six [ __ ] Korean beers offer one Budweiser really yo I was they was like thank you like mean muffled like never tried American beer they want to do everything American they don't understand the value the values that we put on it so much different in theirs because they've just never had it so to them it's like the greatest [ __ ] on earth back then they hadn't really seen that what is some experience right you know it's an American thing doesn't experience experience outside the culture and then it was just damn now look at it like I wonder if I've made it in this world enough where Kim chase some like saw me or something yeah and like was like oh you know I always think about is drew if he was a you think he's alive is kim jaeseong alive you hope he might not I'm alive we the same age yeah but you never know you ever know what happened be gone he's seen you he's had this scene you know I'm

head because you were more free than them yeah right but that was like Washington for you was I could dude who just he understood you he understood yeah another guy was like that um mr.

dismissive shop some mr. dealer make that shop like a mother but you don't but they don't but they don't that got that got eradicated so long ago no one does that [ __ ] anymore but this is real shop when you had to make real [ __ ] man you made real [ __ ] in fact we it when I was gonna say it was like they pushed vocational skills because those were jobs they're out they should push him now still they're not out there as much though I mean they still gonna need a man well you're still gonna computer's kill us all we're still gonna need them I'm not gonna have this argument with you [Music] yeah I know but we still need these things because someone's got to run the company not gonna argue with you now I'm just glad you like I'm sorry to tell you this drew vocational education is [ __ ] dead it's that the only way you're gonna get that training then and that's Sam it's not a need for that job but yeah only way in the future it's the only way you're gonna get it if it's handed down through the family or somebody teaches that yeah they're not gonna have programs yeah mom and dad educated right to [ __ ] Autobot ho mech is not gonna be around everyone not gonna be a race that will be around but what's gonna be around is [ __ ] is gonna be building their own apps yeah designing their own [ __ ] like kids down they like they'd say we're like gonna go to college no I'm just gonna get a startup it's working by the way it works yeah the only way the only reason in the future only reason people are kids gonna go to college is to [ __ ] and for social skills that's why I went to college yeah that's what how many my folks do you know they have a college degree that are in the field field of what they got degree for only lawyers yeah that's only people I know everybody else I know dad they just did whatever the [ __ ] they did and they [ __ ] wouldn't be us no [ __ ] I know two lawyers that were comedy writers for a long time yeah because they they're smart enough there quick enough they're good at at forming these opinions the stories that the same things that comedians it's a similar parallel thinking but the difference is they they wanted more security there's certain people here wait for more security no and you know that is so true you don't say like ten people don't have and it doesn't make them less of what we do anything some of these people just don't have it in them to like to to just keep trying looks like throw look it's throwing caution to the wind doing stand-up for a living that's and that's what I want to know by the way I want to know when you when you got back to the East Coast from where from Korea Korea did you start staying well how old were you started I was 22 22 23 maybe 23 indie Cindy see ya when did you go to New York

mentioned when he was popping right he was 17 or maybe the younger Robin Hood men in tights from where we came for from little as DC little as comedy circuit right not a major entertainment town anybody that [ __ ] move two hours away mated yeah I was like yo that [ __ ] move to Delaware we knew you was gonna do it but he made it on a different level not just because it wasn't a lot of black platforms then right Def Jam where Dave was Papa Def Jam wasn't even out yet you know yeah and for him to come in not only that but Dave came up on he he didn't come heavy in a black circuit but he was instantly into mainstream right why do you why why why do you think it it because for one he thinks different yeah though he don't go for this if you think about it style man he don't talk about [ __ ] everybody else to talk about and if he does it's a flip to it's a it's a flip to it but um he came through the Garvin's through the improv where all the top white comics and the big beat he had those stages yeah so where he was learning from was from are we from that place did you did you like there's always been a big separation of like there are people in the comics in the black market that are dominant or II that are massively large but people in the white world don't know him right that's I can't Winslow's yeah but I mean even still today yeah those guys that are [ __ ] huge that no white comedy fan a lot of white County fans might know but there's some that would would be like I've never heard of that guy and they love comedy you know I mean and see that's what with me and I'm pretty sure that's with Dave and a lot of black commas deal with that and then you can get to a point where you can make a good living off of it but at the same time and not did you need validation by anybody by any race right you don't as never like I want white people think I'm funny my thing for one to do mainstream cuz I was like this I want everybody think I'm funny yeah you want a big audience you don't said I want to use you know but you know a lot of people don't make that transit get comfortable with a lot of black comedy get comfortable with making a certain amount of money and I'm not knocking anything right it's some of its only a handful that can make a strong living just all off black community just black shows just doin black shows but like did you consciously make sure you did not just black shows was that like a thing you were like no I have not only do black shows cuz you can nice yeah I did I did because that's one of the reasons why I left DC like I feel like I get at the top of the level that that was there all right you know I'm saying I was like I was ripping all the cabarets the bar shows today you know I was on everybody's flyer I was a young gun coming up and it just wasn't challenging anymore you know saying it was just like just gotta be something else I know it's always something else yeah and I wanted to go and it was a tough transition because the only thing I knew was a black comedy cuz then I was like because I wasn't really angry with David it's got Dave knew of me like I'm from DC he didn't love me but I wasn't like we wasn't hanging out like that and then I was like trying to get into mainstream rooms and then I would get opportunities I'm in the Boston comedy club we called him straight up white brooms that was a first white just a white man well you changed yeah yeah yeah you hey yo I'm telling you so if like I know this is so wrong but muhfuckas look like this Oh like look who came back home well I'll be making the waffles but it was day it was it was like it was a it felt good knowing that I could rock anybody yes and then I don't got to change my [ __ ] up and a lot of [ __ ] in a black circuit they intimidated by it they intimidate but it is intimidating if you if you only really write for one audience right well it's intimidating this is the most intimidating thing for a person made the transition mm-hmm from the black black audience ooh the amount of laughter what do you mean it's about the volume right the test it's half half of the energy in a white room in white room right but it's totally different you mean there's that you mean black rooms just have their moat so much more when they beat the [ __ ] out each other yeah yo but what white rooms is just like ha ha ha ha it's ha ha but do you know what but you could have you could didn't what I do I take that energy of that room yeah and I make them feel almost turning into the energy of a black room right some people don't take the time to figure out how to do it I used to be bumping heads to myself when I first was going to make my transition I would go up and I would say I would always say black everything black black black right I was black oh yeah black I'm black yeah white black and then Tony was told me one time he said Darnell you don't have to tell him you're black he said no he said when they hear your name they know he say you don't have to go to be black he said it'd be funny be funny yeah white people laugh but that's how any good comic I think and we it is funny to talk like this I mean even the drops well I know Joe I'm saying you hurt you but you earned it I'm not but you know what I'm learning that real quick yeah and then the minute I separate like oh [ __ ] that's why people lived in the black guy it started working yeah but also times have changed in the sense that like when we go to the store together when we're at the store together it's not just a white place it's not like it's not it is a it says it's as mixed of a places you could get in a corporate club city setting like mommies store is back in such a way that you like it could go back to justifying the world-famous Comedy Store yeah because not first one move here it felt weird I'm what year would you move I was here like nine years ago okay and I know they had a manager change or whatever yeah and I don't really know the history I'm not [ __ ] on anybody yeah I do remember a time I was like because you know any comment from anywhere I'm coming from New York on my economy sterling connoisseur hello there's nobody there hello do I moved here 14 years ago hello right I remember that I would like you dude I was like and then I'm looking at the [ __ ] names on the marquee I'm like yeah you don't like this it makes no sense but now it's now it's fixed I mean we get out of [ __ ] yeah popped again it like itches then when I say is like when you dear it it feels like it really feels like the world-famous Comedy Store the energy of those rooms now would you say at The Comedy Store when you rip at the Comedy Store that's like any other black room or any good room in general for me now I'm numb to it now like because I have to sit and not flowing away bit I came it feel like I can make almost any room electric that's good though that's where you want to be that's why I'm saying then you make a transition cuz it used to be there used to be a more definitive line of like a lot of it's a it's a black room in a few white comics would do it and it's all white room in a few black hours would do it and then now I feel like it's it's it's so much more blended than it ever a lot of [ __ ] man like Jason Collins and [ __ ] yeah I respect him on a level of like you know I see this [ __ ] he's Jason Collins everywhere he goes yeah it's the same you know I'm it's the same I'm like I don't know if I hate saying underrated people get their to do but me as a comedian I would like to say like I notice it and acknowledge it yeah and I said I know the trenches he going he don't have to other didn't say in the same way when I left DC I want to show that I can do it yeah and it's like I could rock with anything not only I couldn't rock as a mother for the middle-aged white dude with a grey [ __ ] beard talking about my grown as kids I don't want no I don't want another [ __ ] none of y'all [ __ ] dye my beer I'm just here off of jokes yeah I respect that's when you transcend though right when you when you get to a place when you could just make it doesn't matter the audience anymore which is you have to learn to get to that point as a [ __ ] comedian you know do you get do you get I have to I want to ask this cuz I thought of you when I was on the road last time I was on the road I was I came through Vegas and there was a shirt in a you know like a gift shop or some [ __ ] and he said I'm rich [ __ ] and I was like oh man you you don't see a dime for it's like it's so funny that people can just print your words but a think about it he'll need a dime I would have to get 9 cents today because sure but I'll take I'll take I'll turn on one cent from that yeah once I remember one of those it's just funny funny that like I think about that all the time it's like you made you popularized the thing so much so globe if I had the RZA wu-tang sensibility yeah and I had to Joe Rogan sensibility to look at something to say as much as I like this how do I make money off of it yeah you know yeah like you made a billion dollars off that [ __ ] yeah but it wouldn't been my it would have been like 999 minute show and even in fact that phrase was a part of a joke yet years ago that he gave to you to say on the show he gave no no they put it in here yeah it was part of a skit it was a train car trick whitey if I'm not mistaken that was his first special sounds right and part of the joke was my father was looking a certain way and then it wasn't that person you can take a mask off and it's somebody else's like I'm rich [ __ ] you know I'm saying that's where it came but I nailed it and it was such a anytime you put anything at the end of every show get it be ingrained in your brain forever I mean it's it's it's synonymous with that show 100% did Dave ever give you [ __ ] for that then that like he said like when they because it became such a popular phrase that got associated with you and your face in your image with the show did Dave ever goof with you like that's my [ __ ] but you know no he didn't but he knew it I mean he it wasn't he knows his [ __ ] but he know that I owned it right in terms of it the funny thing about that phrase that was probably one of the most iconic phrases in a history sketch comedy is that you're being cocky it's reality no no it's a [ __ ] fact yo and so it's a fact it's every anyone who hears that nosey anyone who's a comedy fan knows that phrasing knows exactly where it's from and what is synonymous with and think about it was that was the phrase that almost didn't happen because when we were doing that sketch that we in the truck right we were doing a sketch and first off we didn't have money to block off the street like Disney or somebody come through like 125th Street they just made it 3rd Avenue yeah like the big money don't blockbuster joints I don't forget five city blocks absolutely blocks and you think as big as hang around those are all extras right they all like you know you too far away act like you're acting you have a window in a window and [ __ ] on camera yeah yeah it's like this action it's my 55th floor like going hard acting off camera hard making tea and [ __ ] yeah it didn't when it go cut get I hate Tom you know I work at this project is like yeah yeah I feel like you know I'm probably gonna be in Batman this year yeah so it was just like you guys blocked off every you you would do it yourself the crew is small right it was like yo bro this what I'm trying to tell ya just I kind of scene with a rich [ __ ] first off I had to drive a truck right you never driven a truck no I drove a truck bigger I didn't have a license because you were like you didn't have a license in New York yeah don't be spending money oh yeah we're at a dot New York everybody I do in New York yeah yeah you and you tell me I gotta light in the eye I'm still going like we just did licenses like and we thought them up for his and license was pretty boys there was usually white dude yeah we all jason on doors in New York he was our white boy with the license it was shiny and Cheerios I got yeah like you I just got it i just got a redone everything we didn't have license so I'm like this man I hope these [ __ ] don't like us I don't want to recast [ __ ] yeah we'll get someone that has one yeah that Anders in here this what this what he did you nobody's sick see your license they say you got a license right I said yeah yeah right yeah of course yeah I got license I was like nobody I was wait for my cut cut right but also no probably wouldn't been a big deal no no but they wouldn't give it a [ __ ] we gonna [ __ ] but first off I had to get in this truck I'm on your rig nervous about not have my license and then the light that I got to light that I'm about to go to it's not like we stopped it or change the bulbs it's hot this is regular traffic is everyone yeah it could be green red right right it's like bigger deer bad let's go yo back doors I'm already stressed out right so I got a job as big as goddamn truck ain't got no [ __ ] license and a little [ __ ] sitting on an Apple box cuz she's short so they got to get the eyeline right it's not like it looked like she walked under she's standing here so I gotta drive the truck the industry and I gotta hit a mark yeah with a [ __ ] big-ass truck what a big I got it you get it yeah I got a hit of money here's your mark misses the mark yeah but my mark is will be not to run his [ __ ] over right yeah I think so I gotta hit a mark I got a I got a hit mark turning keep up I gotta stop the engine because it's diesel price loud as [ __ ] yeah so I gotta stop hitting my turn this [ __ ] off I got a look and I got a look at the light if they gonna BBB and I got a deliver my and did she deliver my life and I wouldn't experience action I was like this that's what I'm like this I was like I was I kept [ __ ] up bro you [ __ ] the line every time we probably 16 I could not in New York traffic you just have to keep looping around okay no they got to keep this [ __ ] back and I'm like this man you can't be letting [ __ ] t take your rolls [ __ ] do where'd you say on his show is huge you better get it right and I couldn't get it right I could not get around I was like I was like this I'm like this I'm rich [ __ ] and it just wasn't resume right didn't hit finally as sold Neal Brennan no [ __ ] yeah see I got yeah yeah it's cool he's yeah I love him he need three mics yeah yo I'm telling you brah I don't have to meet [ __ ] get justify three mics I look at Mira yeah [Laughter] Mike so Neil [ __ ] face a young Neil [ __ ] face economy yo be right he was like yo we gonna be able to do this holiday V I mean you gotta get it or we you might get cut out right these were just little drop in pieces they could like that could have been in or out of right time time-dependent right yeah that's something gets sliced almond reparations guess it was just like a punchline a punchline punchline right take it like we take that punch on out then I was so frustrated the [ __ ] pulled up when I put it this time I was like that was it just cuz you could get but that's what great [ __ ] comes out of stuff like that I hit the salad Chuck and I didn't I swear I did not know what I was doing I was doing out of frustration like this big about to cut this off to say I can't afford cuz I was didn't work on show a lot house I can't afford to get nothing cut and it's just as an actress gives me it's just [ __ ] up to know your [ __ ] got cut then as you get older and a busy you understand like Joan is that personal if she could get cut for different reasons yeah it's not it has nothing to do with anything I know people like I know people that just did they brought curb back I didn't episode a curb and I the whole time I'm like man what if they cut that [ __ ] out and they did it which is great but I had a couple of friends that did it and their whole [ __ ] got cut and David to be uncurbed with Larry David was like oh [ __ ] you know like my saving grace I think part of it was the storyline if this storyline is important for the episode and then when JB showed up he was walking around with me jb was like let me let me come in let me come in with de let me come in with Santino wolf Agra and I knew that then when Larry had him in he wasn't gonna slice JBL so today really because I know they promoted a and that's the better do they really cuz that's the kind of energy we have special did they really let [ __ ] just play with it like what's Larry really like 100% was he like get there yeah when I am yeah when we when we did that when I auditioned with him that's all you know what they give you like five five notes about the character you know they would be like okay Darnell you have to do you have to be a truck driver you know your wife is dead and you hate you're all three of your kids you're from New Jersey go and then you'd have to make up a whole [ __ ] scenario bro let me tell you something man that is so simple in genius yeah that is and it's such a hard thing to expect for somebody this Larry Davis writing ability right you don't get [ __ ] usually the writers a lot of times they don't respect the writing mindset of a good actor right they want to write the word they were the word and you know they had to come from like years and years of working with this crew usually as where true and we put certain things on it for a blueprint but right when we get into it we let them [ __ ] around they're gonna create the best [ __ ] I mean that's why he hires good people I think that that that was a trick that's the trick you hire the best people yeah and then you know who to trust you know I was lucky he liked my [ __ ] that I brought to it and when we did it on the day he here's what he does that's a great trick I will say this to say that they beat out the episode to say that they don't really write it it doesn't an injustice because truthfully dude he's so good at giving you yeah he writes it by did you do it guide you right into that's what I'm saying yeah he almost he it's a like if you had I [ __ ] if you I guarantee you probably the only probably only criticism he probably ever give an actor is when you go outside the story line if you try to recreate your own story it brings you back he'll bring you back yeah yes but he's so smart he did it multiple times like we the way he was able to do it was just so like simple [ __ ] where he would say part of the bit we were gonna run was I was making these toilets I was doing these Japanese toilets thing and I had said I said oh it can detect a penis and he goes oh like he's had a door on it now and I made up this audible I go back it'll go P P P penis detected and then JP goes it's gonna is gonna detect based on size of penis and I knew that Larry after he said that one is wanted him to go back to what we were trying to do yeah yeah and he did it so quick and clever it's not it's almost like it didn't happen yeah they say he's just fat he's just his he knows where he already is and he'll figure out a way to fix the problem it's like the greatest problem for you know who was like that and I probably think it was all in our head this is part of my story is um well I felt that was Sam Raimi yeah Spider Man two years ago it's a big that's probably big is movie I've been in it's a big [ __ ] movie is a big deal right you know when I got that I came in oh [ __ ] cuz I I found out I was gonna do that the morning of cuz Stanley was supposed to do really today that you shot it they called you their morning holy [ __ ] that never [ __ ] happens well happen with Stanley you supposed to do that shot was reaction shot like a movies like that they have or dips auditioned specifically for reaction totally joy Diaz did it it's like this ya know audition what you doing they do like this Oh spare man comes down around on a horse spider-man is in an elevator right they won't know how you react to have you reacting to certain [ __ ] so Stanley was supposed to be this reaction saying he got ill or some happy you couldn't do it they called casting that morning and it was like my manager called me tell me Daniel spider-man called Danella had spider-man on the phone yeah spider-man Cody what's your deal and this is after I had just got past one of something for BT the day before like you got you got a no from them I got a no from this thing I was on BT Friday supposed to shoot Saturday I got a pass on them Friday night after I had already deal wardrobe with everything you know how that makes a [ __ ] I knew the director whenever producers didn't I knew they was fighting all the way but I was like I got Wars to fight has to be over I'm in close I'm in the client minute closing what about wardrobe Yeah right and bTW Black Entertainment Television right don't make us piss me off so many times so I'm like I'm so [ __ ] up I'm like I am about to sell out yeah music you be on CMT yadi more white gloves ladies and gentlemen Donnell Rome's hell y'all [ __ ] bTW I'm gonna to do the Blowfish right I was [ __ ] no BT and next morning I get a call that I'm spider-man wanting last-minute joint right and like imma tell you bro this was so last-minute the outfit I wore to set was my clothes you were all your own [ __ ] Carhartt Alpha Street Brooklyn by the way another thing that people don't know that doesn't happen no matter what they're like we'll have our clothes we'll have our clothes for you no we don't want your clothes yeah I've got the car outfit if I would work cuz so say Ray's say ray be funny is she said hey Darnell the bet my favorite actor in New York City everybody said and the only man after I know in New York City answer cause somebody get you ticket so Sam Raimi walks in when Sam Raimi is a assistant and then Sam Raimi's assistant like it's like you know that's layers like it's like I never seen so many muffles of clipboards it in my life there's one [ __ ] controlling for blocks in Manhattan and he like 200 million dollars so what I mean oh yeah and he pulls out a [ __ ] stick stick him a green X on a stick right right I'm thinking like man oh man spider-man what he said Donnell this is X to me bro like know this now right now that man he was like disrespecting me okay he says oh man Peter Parker's wears it a piece of shop he's they for work every day his boss is gonna fire him if he's late again he's going down the street on his bike spider-man goes off the bike and he goes in the building he's like he's down the building like this is like we I don't know that he knows we like this he goes around ability comes up and this is what thirty [ __ ] are looking at me right he said what are you gonna say I said whoa I started doing the bouncing like he stole that guy's pizza that was at it that was it yeah he said I love it right crazy yo I'm like you gotta understand this would be birthed in like doing a movie like that yeah I don't know if you ever wonder has a set like Will Smith said or anything like that one I'm gonna take the streets of [ __ ] bro it's so dope because you see they're like I'm the actor right so the minute they say action everybody works for me yeah like like if people can say what a little role whatever in that moment everybody on that [ __ ] set in video village everybody was it was on me I was the star for five seconds bro yeah you don't want that while that that many people are like you you're the one thing of a madman and then it's like these millions of little moments in a moment but didn't you look at like the like like the start of movie and like I felt like in that moment I was a start a movie yeah and it felt like I was like man this just cool [ __ ] and the dopest thing about it was and I always tell people like we could get upset about certain [ __ ] but if you keep a positive because I was really mad at beauty and I was still mad at Beatty not anymore I got other reasons to be mad at Beauty I loved Beatty Beatty is a great platform Beatty has been there for black people for years did they give you your first spot on TV as a comic no the first comics but I ever did was def Comedy Jam okay and that Beatty was little later after that yeah and I I have had a great relationship with beauty and they're fans of mine right but you know after a while and I just goddamn when can we make some money together yeah you know I mean it's like I feel like that's how a lot of people feel in a lot of industries where you're like how come this big dog has all of this money right and how come I'm getting but I'm just like this I really like pride myself in my work ethics I promise of my content yeah of all the things I've done on television nobody's really ever seen me be whack or bomb yeah it's a hard place to be because TV is easy to be whack on that's what I'm saying ask any comic they've all we almost all of us have done bad TV I've been lucky enough cuz I'm not trained yet you know the things that I've got I have to always try to make an impact but also because I think you you've worked on stuff on TV where they're not they want you to be you they want you to do what you do well you know like it's it's always difficult when they ask you to do something so outside of yourself even if you're a good actor that you're like I don't even know if I want to do it like that you know if they want to get to Hollywood yeah it's almost like I don't even know if that's what I would be good at you know like I did you know tone Bell you know him do you know talking about ya tone had a sitcom and I went and did a little guest thing on it and I and it just wasn't I was this is not work and man like they knew it I knew it I just don't do multicam well it's not a thing and the reason why you didn't have to take it that sir it was like whatever because you're successful yeah no it was nice that I that it wasn't that bad it wasn't that thing she was lucky shot shot glass yeah shop shop class yo podcast was a different world man you're taking back a part of your career too because you've got you've got a very successful podcast and you're hot off the start your for your four months in five months ago when did every whizzes pocket what do you mean you ruined a podcast okay there's a classified because I don't want to talk about every platform but I was Joe Rogan had I did
