[00:02:30] Speaker C: I'm tuning in. And the next one is called the Big Dog. [00:02:32] Speaker A: Yes. And you just announced the Big Dog Tour. And I guess I don't even know where to start, but I have my own personal questions. Okay, so first of all, I've heard the stories over the years of how hard it is for us to get a Netflix special. What, did you have that same experience or how was it difficult for you? [00:02:51] Speaker C: I've been doing comedy 24 years, and in 24 years, I've had three sets that I bombed. In 24 years, I've been extremely consistent. Yeah, I know the sets. I know where I was. I know when it was. [00:03:06] Speaker A: Where were you? [00:03:07] Speaker C: I1 was in Oakland at the Bay Area Black on my semifinal year, Rest in peace to Kool Aid from Detroit. But he lit that thing on fire. And it was my first time seeing real heat and having to get up after it and figure out what you gonna do. And then the second time was I lost my hat. And I should have been sitting down in focus, but I was a young comic and I just wanted my hat because it said Seattle across the front, and that's where I'm from. And. Well, from Tacoma, really. Born in Lacey. But it's all the same thing. If you come from somewhere like la, that's so big. So that was the second time. And then the third time was recently. I didn't bomb, but I didn't like my set. I really didn't like my set. I had to work. I had to dig out of it. I was at 50 cents, humor and heart Harmony down in. When he just took over the South. Yeah, Yeah, I was at that. And I didn't like my set, but it. It was. Some of it was me. I don't like to blame it on nothing, but there was legit 20 comics and then five act five talent concert and then another, like 20 comics. It was. It was. People have been in there from 4:00 clock until 11:00pm with comedy. Or. I mean, like, Master P did, like, how long Master P go. Masterpiece is like 45 minutes. Master P. Master P. You can't go to Louisiana. [00:04:25] Speaker A: Oh, okay. I see what you're saying. [00:04:26] Speaker C: Yeah. Okay. All right. But it was like a halftime between the Comedy show got you. And then like. But Master P just went like. It was Master P. Money, Long da baby, Moneybag, Yo. [00:04:38] Speaker A: So you. [00:04:39] Speaker B: So it was a showcase and a. [00:04:40] Speaker A: Comedy show and a comedy show. [00:04:41] Speaker C: It was 20 comics. I'm talking like, Michael Blackson, Gary Owen, me. [00:04:44] Speaker A: Oh, it's some shit on there. [00:04:46] Speaker C: 50 brought all the heat out, but you got in line at 3 to get in at 4, 4 or 5. And then the show went until like, 11. [00:04:54] Speaker A: I remember that comedy show. [00:04:56] Speaker C: And it was long and I was like. And I just was like. I had a slow start after. I was like, man. And then I like, flipped it and I got up out of there with a W, but it was a lowercase W, and I'm used to big W. So I was like. I didn't like how that one went. [00:05:10] Speaker A: So you talking about. So after 20, you said 20 plus years of doing this, you only bombed 24 years. You only bombed three sets. And then that leads you into this Netflix special. So you saying that it's been hella. [00:05:22] Speaker C: Difficult to get here. Yeah. Without saying that. [00:05:25] Speaker A: Right. [00:05:25] Speaker C: Because the actual. I'll say this, the actual process of them being like, we're interested in doing this. That flowed pretty smooth. But I think it's because, like, I was out of the way from that. I was just allowed to be talent and let management agency and all that, but I couldn't. There's no way. I don't think I could have done it without again. Management agency and all the other moving parts. Once the door closes and I'm not in there, them conversations like that had to happen. So, like, my team is strong, and that's what happened. Now this is going to air on the 8th, and I can just sit back and be like, I try to tell y'. All. [00:05:55] Speaker B: Yeah, what about the. That one you didn't like? [00:05:59] Speaker C: About which one? [00:06:00] Speaker B: When you said that, you said you didn't necessarily like your. [00:06:04] Speaker C: What you did at 50 cents thing. Yeah, I just had a slow start. Like, when there's 20 comments, you got to come in just like you got the. You know what I'm saying? Because the people's interest is already 20 comics. [00:06:14] Speaker B: Where do you fall on the 20? [00:06:16] Speaker C: I was the second comic after the concert. So there was 20. Then all the talent. I just told you, they did a song, they all did shows, and then we went back to. It was a star studded. I'd love to do it again, but I know what I would do differently. [00:06:29] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:06:30] Speaker C: And that's so three in 24 years. [00:06:32] Speaker A: Damn. [00:06:33] Speaker C: So if you want to call that difficult? [00:06:35] Speaker B: Cool. [00:06:35] Speaker C: Yeah. You know, but sometimes I think it takes, you know, takes a different or, you know, different point of view to catch. To catch the eye of what? I think somebody, when they have the control over who's gonna see something on a national or international, global level, they can wanna see different point of views, you know, and if. And if I was at a point in my career or a place in my writing where they felt like, well, we can kind of get that same thing, but it doesn't have to be him, then maybe that's it. You know what I mean? Cause there's been a distinct needle move since I was like, you know what? I'm gonna abandon. Like, I'm abandon structured stand up. And I'm going to delve into this crowd work stuff and then the way I do it, you know, and so I've found my own little lane that now a lot of people are merging into. And then on the 8th, we get to see who should be driving over there. [00:07:21] Speaker B: In the go ahead. In the world of entertainment, how bad is it for a comedian to bomb? [00:07:27] Speaker C: I mean, it's just not good. How many terrible shows could you have? Like, if you couldn't remember your questions, your own name, the guest name. [00:07:33] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:07:34] Speaker C: Before it's like, oh, okay, we need to holler at you. [00:07:36] Speaker B: But I don't think that we look at comedians as like, y' all have to be perfect. It's kind of like a singer falling on stage. Like, get back up and sing. [00:07:44] Speaker C: You can watch somebody performing and be like, all right, this is funny, but it's not for me. You hear the room, you see everybody else enjoying themselves. I'm talking about. [00:07:51] Speaker B: I guess I haven't seen a bad show. I haven't experienced a bad show. [00:07:55] Speaker C: You haven't? Where do you go to shows at? [00:07:56] Speaker B: I watch it on tv. [00:07:58] Speaker C: No, by the time it's on tv, it's already working. Anything bad has been edited out and all that. You might go see some live comedy. [00:08:03] Speaker B: I've never been to a live comedy. Yeah. [00:08:04] Speaker C: Show. Oh, okay. Well, we'll go on Friday. [00:08:07] Speaker B: Okay. [00:08:08] Speaker C: All right. I'm at the wheel turn. It just so happens to land at the end of my week of promo in la. I have two shows there. I think. This is not sold out yet. Second show isn't. So first show, I think is a wrap. Second show. We got some room. We can bring the whole family down and y' all can see what this. What the evolution of me in comedy is now. [00:08:26] Speaker B: Okay, Friday. [00:08:27] Speaker A: Yeah, I. I Already know. I'm a huge fan, bro. Like, And I think what did draw me to you was the crowd work stuff. [00:08:34] Speaker C: Okay. [00:08:35] Speaker A: Because I've seen people do it, but I never really seen anybody do it how you do it. [00:08:40] Speaker B: That's a reason I won't go. [00:08:42] Speaker A: Why? No, you gotta. You can't sit in the ropes zone. [00:08:45] Speaker B: Oh, okay. Okay. [00:08:47] Speaker C: I do some stuff different. All of my front. All of that is called the roast zone. And people pay extra money to sit in there to get roasted. They want the interaction. Yeah. [00:08:54] Speaker B: Okay. Cause you told the one dude. [00:08:56] Speaker C: But if you look away, I don't. If you look away, I don't get you. That's rule number one. [00:09:01] Speaker B: Don't make eye contact. [00:09:02] Speaker A: Just don't make eye contact. But if you make eye contact and you invite the smoke. [00:09:06] Speaker C: Yeah. I'll ask you, like, are you. Is that how you look at me? You know what I'm saying? [00:09:09] Speaker B: I'm scared to make eye contact. [00:09:10] Speaker C: Nah, whatever. Whatever it is. And then I'm. Then. Now we can get into it. I'm saying I'll start off with a couple little ones, and I want. Then. Then I want to know, like, who are you? What do you do that we can find the funny in your regular situation? Then you're having fun too, right? [00:09:23] Speaker A: Right. [00:09:24] Speaker C: I'm not. Just like, who's sucking? Who's over here? Like, I'm not that guy. I want you to leave the interaction and be like, that was funny. [00:09:30] Speaker B: But he cool, though, when you got the whole crew. The whole row of Hispanics. [00:09:34] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:09:35] Speaker C: Wait a minute. [00:09:36] Speaker B: What? [00:09:36] Speaker C: You saw that? [00:09:37] Speaker B: Yeah, it's out now. It's out now. [00:09:39] Speaker C: Okay. [00:09:40] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:09:41] Speaker C: Okay. So y' all seen the special? [00:09:43] Speaker B: Yeah, the whole thing. [00:09:44] Speaker C: Wow. This is the first group of people who have seen it in full in my face. [00:09:51] Speaker A: You wanna see it? [00:09:52] Speaker C: No, no, I've seen it. Cause I know the episode. You wanna see it? You wanna see it? Want me to bring you something? [00:10:00] Speaker B: Look, he's saying now we on the same part, y'. All. [00:10:03] Speaker C: Yeah. Y' all stopping the same. He here. Yeah. That's super exclusive. [00:10:07] Speaker B: When you told the dude he looked like his name on Mama. [00:10:11] Speaker C: No, that's the special. That's the special. Yeah, My bad, my bad. [00:10:13] Speaker B: I'm over here telling the jokes. [00:10:15] Speaker C: Y' all gotta go watch it. [00:10:16] Speaker B: It's on Netflix. [00:10:17] Speaker C: He's like, when the big dinosaur bit the toilet and watched for Jurassic Park. [00:10:22] Speaker B: Can we go back, like, childhood. [00:10:25] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:10:25] Speaker B: Classroom. What type of student were you? [00:10:27] Speaker C: The one that the teacher put out so she could talk to Everyone else. [00:10:31] Speaker A: I could see that that was me. [00:10:32] Speaker C: But I was wild enough to actually, like put my ear on the crack of the door and still try to get the lesson. You got rid of me, but you ain't gonna get rid of me. [00:10:39] Speaker A: That's insane. [00:10:40] Speaker C: It is what it is. [00:10:40] Speaker A: That's some bullshit. [00:10:41] Speaker C: It is. [00:10:42] Speaker A: If the teacher put me out, I'm checked out. Nah, I'm done for the day. [00:10:44] Speaker C: Nah. Cause then you come back the next day and they asking questions from when you just walked out. It was something too telling. [00:10:50] Speaker A: Yeah, but that's a trick. Don't ask me no stupid ass question if you know you put me out. That's crazy. [00:10:54] Speaker C: You ain't never fake not paid attention during like round robin reading or popcorn? Yeah, I was trying to get you. [00:11:00] Speaker A: I was sleep. [00:11:01] Speaker C: You was really asleep. [00:11:02] Speaker A: I was asleep. For real? [00:11:03] Speaker C: No. I may have been like, man, might have been messing with somebody, but I'm tracking. So when they try to catch me slipping, I'm like. And I got it. The teacher's like, man, we can't catch him slipping. I was like, took pride on that. [00:11:13] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? So you was a class clown and a smart kid. [00:11:16] Speaker C: That's a tough mix. [00:11:18] Speaker B: I think teachers should have did a better job. Cause when I was in school, well, obviously everybody probably went through this, but the class clown was the one that. The teacher is like, you're a disruption, you're a problem. I feel like they never embraced the class clown. And now you have a Netflix special. [00:11:31] Speaker C: True. Now, I was just asked. Somebody asked me like three of like my influences. My fifth grade teacher's name was Mr. Leo Fuller. I don't know where he's at now in the world, but he was the first teacher I came across that turned that energy and used it for positive and good. Like, as rambunctious and wild as we were. Come to think of it, I think they put all the baddest kids in his class. Like, he was a special teacher. Because I remember being. I remember first day walking in like, bro, they got aj, it's cracking in here. I was like, oh my. I don't know who's teaching this class, but they gonna have to have a. A weapon. This is the worst kids in the whole school. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. Mind you, everybody from that class is legitimately on the bigger, better, more wonderful thing. So you're right about harnessing that energy. But Mr. Fuller was the first one. If class got crazy, he could literally like, up everybody outside. We have to go run now. All our energy gone. Then we come back, and then we was like, you know, now we're malleable. We're listening again. [00:12:26] Speaker B: But he was one of those teachers that y' all probably feel like, for lack of better terms, fucked with y' all so much. So if he tell you to be quiet, y' all probably would be quiet. [00:12:34] Speaker C: Well, no. Yeah, I'm gonna be quiet. [00:12:36] Speaker B: Well, he can get y' all to run a lap. [00:12:39] Speaker C: You got to go. But, yeah, no, I wasn't, like, a recalcitrant student. I just was like, we having fun. I felt like the teacher was messing with us. Like, you saw us having fun. You know what I'm saying? You could have waited just a second. He's on the last part of his sentence. Let him finish. I just felt like, you know what I'm saying? [00:12:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:12:58] Speaker C: Sometimes teachers just gotta give a little grace to the student. Okay, you guys got all that out? [00:13:03] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:13:03] Speaker C: All right. Now I'm gonna turn to this board and teach. You know what I mean? Cause, you know, so Mr. Fuller was the first one. Other than that, I don't think if I came across Mr. Fuller, I don't know where I'd be. [00:13:12] Speaker B: I had one teacher, too, and he was like, what you doing after high school? I said, I'm going to school to be a rn. And he said, you have a voice for entertainment. And I had never had an adult, like, in school, like, tell me. Everybody was, okay, good. You're gonna be a nurse. All right. You know, congratulations. And then he was the one that was like, nah, you. You have a different type of. You know, you ain't no nurse. [00:13:32] Speaker C: But why he say that? [00:13:34] Speaker B: I was the. So I was a senior class historian. [00:13:36] Speaker C: Wonderful. [00:13:37] Speaker B: So I did the yearbook. I was in leadership and stuff, and I would do the announcements sometimes in the morning. Yeah. [00:13:41] Speaker C: And that's where you heard it. [00:13:42] Speaker B: Exactly. [00:13:43] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:13:44] Speaker A: Did you. Did you have a moment, like, where you was like, this is what I'm gonna do? Was that early, or was that. Did that come later? [00:13:50] Speaker C: I had a couple. Because comedy is a business, right? It's a show business. So the first epiphany was like, oh, I can actually do this craft, right? [00:13:59] Speaker A: It is a craft. [00:13:59] Speaker C: I'd say there's three. First I was like, I'm funny, and I think I can make. I could be funny. That's the first thing, because that's the first hump people gotta get over. Can I get funny? Second was, could I do this for a living? Right. Just. Could I just do this. Then the third is, can I make money doing this? And so each thing was a different epiphany. Like, how am I going to what's my lane? Because there's a lot of. There's a lot of careers in funny. Like, you could be. You could make the comic strips in the newspaper. You could be doing animation. You could be like, there's tons of. Yeah, you could write for award shows. You can. There's so many. You can do Hallmark cards. Funny is a business. But I'm like, stand up's gonna be my lane, and this way, I'm gonna do it. You know what I mean? And so once I realized that and I applied what I know for my family with their entrepreneurial spirits, I was like, I think I can make something of this. And it didn't make sense for a little while, but my parents were like, lock in. You know what I mean? Thank God I had the type of parents that are like, nah, he onto something. [00:14:56] Speaker B: Are they funny? [00:14:58] Speaker C: Actually, yeah. My dad prides himself on being the funny one, but my mom has the timing that makes her hilarious. Does that make sense? [00:15:04] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:15:05] Speaker C: I remember one time she had a regular checkup, and nobody tells me, like, my mom going to the hospital and stuff, because I'd be like, and I'm on a plane. I'll be there to hold your hand and walk you out. Only got one mama, you know what I'm saying? She's like, he's busy. Don't tell him. So she didn't tell me. I found out. They said in. Like, somebody was in a group chat. My niece was like, good luck today at surgery or whatever. I was like, who's getting surgery? They said, my mom is. I said, oh, my God. I flew home. I come in. I don't know what the surgery's for. Is my mama okay? My mama at. Right. And she sat and just waited. Her little gown was open in the back a little bit. Her back was exposed. I said, mama, your back. Your back is out now. What kind of surgery is this? She just waited. She said, look at that pretty booty. I said, what? What? [00:15:52] Speaker B: She got a bbl. No. [00:15:56] Speaker C: It'S a regular butt. It's really an old wrinkly butt. But that's the timing that she had to be like, look at that pretty booty. I'm like, oh, my God. I thought you were dying in here. And you wanna. You use this amount of tense energy to turn into. Look at this pretty. [00:16:10] Speaker A: To make a joke. Yeah. [00:16:11] Speaker C: Right now, my dad would have been like, Just talking the whole time, trying to find a. You know what I mean? So she has the timing. She waited till I was on the brink of like, what is going on? Look at this pretty booty. You know what I mean? [00:16:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:22] Speaker C: And she don't. She isn't cursed. That's way out of her character. So it was like, wait, what? You know what I mean? [00:16:27] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:16:29] Speaker C: There are pretty booties that aren't BBLs. [00:16:31] Speaker B: I know I got one. [00:16:33] Speaker C: The BBL or the pretty booty? [00:16:34] Speaker B: Pretty butt. [00:16:35] Speaker C: Oh, I bet. [00:16:37] Speaker A: Pretty, pretty bbl. Free butt. My question is, it's crazy. She got a bbl. It was the wildest question we probably ever had on this show. [00:16:45] Speaker B: I thought that's where we was going. [00:16:47] Speaker A: This dude is a mama guy. Whose mama? You know, I mean, I guess nowadays you never know. [00:16:55] Speaker B: Mama's been getting bbls. [00:16:56] Speaker A: What kind of odd job did you have? Cause I know a lot of comedians say, like, that's the joke when they go up on stage. They say, man, I'm broke. Or I'm a struggling comedian. What's the job? And also we have friends who are entertainment, but entertainment doesn't pay their bills. So what are the jobs that you've done and what are jobs that people can do without being front facing or being able to let. [00:17:18] Speaker C: Without being front facing? [00:17:19] Speaker A: Well, it's stuff that they could do without being noticed. [00:17:21] Speaker C: I know you can uber drive. Nah. You can see who's requesting the ride. [00:17:25] Speaker A: Nah. [00:17:26] Speaker C: And you could be like, nope, that's from where I'm from. I know I'm going to know them. Or you could do landscaping. [00:17:34] Speaker A: Oh, yeah. [00:17:34] Speaker C: That was one of the last two jobs I had, my uncle had. [00:17:36] Speaker A: So you were a landscaper? [00:17:37] Speaker C: No, no, this was, I was young. My last job was I was doing Wells Fargo Financial in the ie, giving out car loans and refinancing houses and stuff. [00:17:46] Speaker A: Really? [00:17:46] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:17:47] Speaker A: So you had to. Did you deny people loans? [00:17:49] Speaker C: No, we, we. It was, it was right before like the bubble when everybody's stuff was going to go up crazy. So we were calling people, trying to save him. Like, you know, in three weeks it's about to hit the fan. He's gonna refine it. Yeah, yeah. So that was the thing. And I, and I honestly, I was qualified for the job cause of my college degree and stuff. But like, I hadn't worked for two, three years before that. And the guy that hired me, Big game James, that's what we call him, he was like, look, man, we the number one branch in SoCal already. We don't need you, but you funny man. So just keep. Keep the office fun. I was like, what? He was like, just keep the office fun. That's all I want. I was like, oh, I'm the. I'm more. I'm the moral support up here. Bet, bet, bet. I mean, I. I would. You still have to sell, otherwise you get put on the pip and all that. But I did what I needed to do. I landed a big one, actually. I called this guy. I can't say their name because it's really real, but there was one that, you know, you get the call cue. There was one that had like 55 red flag. Like, he's like, don't call. He hangs up. He's. And I just called. I was like, I'm gonna try it. Everybody's standing around like, let's see what happens when he calls. Right? I call. Yeah. I said, in two weeks, your. Your house note is going to cost. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And it was quiet for a second. He was like, you got two minutes. I said, I'm not good enough to talk to you, but I will schedule you with my branch manager and I have you come down. I need you here Wednesday, anytime between 10 and 2 or whatever. And he was like, all right, I'll be there. He came in. Big game. James locked it in. I got the credit for it, but it was a big old. It was like 1.7 million dollar home or something. It was a big one. It was a big one. And so what? That don't make me nothing. It's just like, yeah, I got the big one. That's all I got. [00:19:34] Speaker B: Has anybody ever recognized your voice? [00:19:37] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:19:38] Speaker A: While you was at the branch. [00:19:39] Speaker C: No, no, no, not then. This was before all this stuff took off. [00:19:42] Speaker B: Okay. [00:19:42] Speaker C: Okay. Yeah. I used to do prank calls. I could get away with calling people like Nate. Nah, I can't do it. They can tell I know who this is. You know what I'm saying? [00:19:51] Speaker A: What's the. What is. What is your biggest fear as a comic at this point? Because, you know, you don't have a fear of bombing. [00:19:58] Speaker C: No. [00:19:59] Speaker A: How dark. [00:19:59] Speaker C: You want this real? [00:20:01] Speaker A: Yeah, it's a comic from not death or no shit like that. [00:20:03] Speaker C: That's the biggest fear off of the clip. Go ahead. Yeah, that's the fear, though. Like, I don't want to be like, I've watched wonderful specials by great comics, and they don't know how they were received by the people. So when I tell you I'm driving safe right now and I am taking my ass home Right now, I'm not trying to see this special be post mortem. I want to be here for the roses and to see it all pop. I feel that. That's the main thing. [00:20:28] Speaker A: That's the fear. Yeah, I feel that. [00:20:30] Speaker C: That and like STDs and shit. I don't want that. [00:20:32] Speaker A: I feel that. [00:20:33] Speaker B: That's one. [00:20:34] Speaker C: You know what I'm saying? That's a good one. [00:20:36] Speaker A: There's ways to prevent that, though, Nate. I don't know if you're aware, like. [00:20:39] Speaker C: Some of these mamas got bbls. You heard the question. [00:20:44] Speaker B: What's dating like for comedians? [00:20:45] Speaker C: Like, hell. [00:20:46] Speaker B: Do women expect you to just be funny? [00:20:48] Speaker C: Yeah, but I kind of am. [00:20:49] Speaker B: Tell a choke. [00:20:50] Speaker C: Like, not like that, but, like, I kind of am. But the thing is, now I don't know what their motivation is. You know what I'm saying? Like, I don't know if, like, you're like, you're. Are you. Are you interested in me? Like, we gotta vet you. You need to meet Keela. You gotta meet my sisters. You gotta meet everybody around for them to be like, I like her. [00:21:07] Speaker B: Outside of that, like, what's the full vetting process? Like, what are you looking for? [00:21:10] Speaker C: I said nothing. They'll beat her up. [00:21:13] Speaker A: Just full pack out. That's crazy. [00:21:17] Speaker B: Now, what if she win? [00:21:20] Speaker C: Then I got to do it, I guess. [00:21:22] Speaker A: Hey, you got to keep her around, huh? If nothing else, for security. [00:21:26] Speaker C: Got me a bouncer. Now I'm safe. [00:21:28] Speaker B: Have you ever gotten around a woman that made it uncomfortable because she just wanted jokes 24, 7? [00:21:34] Speaker C: Oh, I don't think if you stop that in the middle. I was gonna be like, recently, but yeah. [00:21:39] Speaker B: Oh, say what you was gonna say. [00:21:41] Speaker C: You know, it's not. Nobody's being like, be funny, be funny, be funny. Like, I am legitimate. If you just come with me, something will pop off. Like, it's gonna be fun. [00:21:48] Speaker B: Right, right, right. [00:21:48] Speaker C: You know what I'm saying? [00:21:49] Speaker B: Naturally. [00:21:49] Speaker C: Yeah. Because the world is where I draw it from. I'm not trying to like, write it into, you know, I mean, that was me as a young comic. Now I'm like, look at that. You know what I'm saying? If you. If you got that lens and you see the funny thing, what do you. [00:22:01] Speaker A: Say to people who say that the crowd work is pre written? [00:22:06] Speaker C: I haven't heard that. [00:22:08] Speaker A: I've seen. Not necessarily about you. I'm saying people. There are certain comics who don't respect crowd work because they're saying it doesn't take skill to just riff. And I'm like it actually probably takes more skill. [00:22:20] Speaker C: So you're saying two different things. [00:22:22] Speaker A: Okay. [00:22:22] Speaker C: One, pre written crowd work would be like if somebody came into freestyle and you're like, this sounds premeditated, right? Yeah. The other, the latter part of that is somebody who, they just don't. They either they don't got the skill set to do it or they don't got the vision to see what's happening right now in the game. And there's bad crowd work. Yes. And there's good and then there's great. We'll let July 8th let people determine where I fall in it. But I think, I think the best form of crowd work is not just fucking with people for the. Just for the sake of fucking with them or just to spread because you don't have jokes and you're trying to buy time. I think it is legitimately to get to know people and find the funny in their life and then they can laugh at their own lives and we can all laugh together. And now everyone is brought closer together. The room should feel small no matter the amount of capacity. If you just mess with people and you're not hitting like you should and the joke and it's not connecting or the answers are slow and there's not enough to pull from, that's a dry show. And you'll hear people in the back like, ash, I'm talking to somebody. Like, you know what I'm saying? So there's an evolution to this. I could, you could go out and not have a skill set and be like, I'm gonna just talk to him. Or you could actually take the source material, let that be the people, build a setup from that, do an act out, establish your premise, do some mix ups, do some callbacks, string everything together and bring. And bring the room into smaller and conduct the show. Or you could just be up there fucking around wasting time when it could be a better comic on stage. And I think what happens is there's good comics or people who just want the stage time and they're sitting on the side watching while somebody flounders doing bad crowd work versus somebody just like destroying. Because if somebody kills, you don't even remember what they said. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? And there's not a comic that there, there is no comics that don't do crowd work. You, they do crowd work. I don't care if you walked out and said, how is everybody doing? Guess what you just did. You just talk to the crowd. You know what I'm saying? Now there's a whole nother end of the spectrum where you got like, Don Rickles and he's got a. You know, he's in Vegas consistently, and the crowd is changing, and he's just walking around with a microphone, roasting and cooking. But, you know, for black comics, that's kind of where we're at. It's evolution. [00:24:35] Speaker B: Are you scanning the crowd before you get to the crowd? [00:24:38] Speaker C: I should. I don't. I should, but I don't. [00:24:41] Speaker B: Cause I even noticed on this one, you was like, turn my lights on so I can see the front row. And then you got to it. You had one serious motherfucker in the front that I was waiting for you to get to. [00:24:51] Speaker C: I didn't want them to know I turned the lights on at the show till that came out. But that's what I'm. [00:24:54] Speaker B: Oh, well, this not gonna drop until this. [00:24:57] Speaker A: Yeah, this come out after. [00:24:58] Speaker C: Oh, well, then talk about the special. [00:25:00] Speaker A: Yeah, that's what I'm. [00:25:01] Speaker B: Yeah, that's why I said we already out. [00:25:02] Speaker C: I didn't know if there was a piece that was going or what. No, no, no, no. Yeah. I literally. I explained what's about to happen. I tell some jokes, I explain what's gonna happen. I do the rules. And then I'm like, now turn on the lights. And every time they're like, wait, what? The lights. Women are fixing their hair. Guys are getting like, what? I just told you the rules. Also, in every video I've posted out of the thousands. [00:25:22] Speaker A: Yes. [00:25:23] Speaker C: You don't see that it's well lit. Every other comedy video is dark. Mine be lit like a garage sale. Right. I want to see everybody. And that's why I be cooking. The balcony, the mill. You're not safe. If I can see you, you definitely in trouble. And then the other thing I do is I'll turn my back and use the screen. Cause the camera can see further than the human eye. And they can get somebody crystal clear way in the back. I'll turn and look at the screen. Like, look at this. I'll get it don't matter. Only way out of it is if you look away. We already talked about the rules. Follow em. Cause I'm an honor. If you look away, I'm not gonna do it. [00:25:54] Speaker B: I'll be in a crowd like this. [00:25:56] Speaker C: And that would be hilarious. I'm like, I was gonna get you. You know what I'm saying? How you gonna put on all that lip gloss and not let me say nothing? And that would be the moment. And then I move on. To h. Somebody behind you. [00:26:07] Speaker A: I grew up roasting with the homies, cooking. Just cooking niggas. I actually did the pilot to the show your mama did you back in the day. Yeah, man, I shot the pilot for that show, and then it got picked up for. We didn't get paid off that. Anyway, long story short is I respect the roast. My first question is, do you think that the younger generation needs to be roasted more? I do. [00:26:32] Speaker C: The kids, yes. Yeah. [00:26:34] Speaker A: Because everybody's, like, so sensitive and, like, it's so, like, it's not serious. Even when we. Me and her, she loves battle rap, but battle rap is a craft, just like comics. Just being a comic is a craft. It takes skill set to do these things. But now everybody takes shit so serious. And that's something me and her always talk about. Like, everybody taking this shit too serious. Niggas is rapping, niggas is telling jokes. [00:26:56] Speaker C: Right. [00:26:57] Speaker B: That's it. [00:26:57] Speaker A: That's it. Right. Do you think that it's too sensitive now, the climate for comics like yourself? [00:27:05] Speaker C: Yes and no. Cause I know it is overall a little more sensitive than I think it should be. But I also know I'm getting away with a lot because I would literally be like, I apologize. You deserve better from me than that in the moment. Or like, we're laughing at it. I'm like, oh, okay, that was a little racist. Let's dial it back. You know what I'm saying? The fact that you can check yourself or you have self realization, that is. That's a. That. That affects the people. See? That affects the people watching you. If you're just up there and you going and you get yours, and you're. What you're saying is going from point A to B with no consideration for anybody. You just trampled over. They feel that. Yeah, they feel like it didn't matter if I was here or not. He was gonna say that nasty shit regardless. Right now if I'm like, are you a freak? And you. Yep. And then we go down the logic, and now we talking about it. You don't feel trampled over. You don't feel. You know what I mean? And so I try not to judge too much. I just want to hear what the information is. Plug that in and get to going and making jokes out of it. So I want to punch as many times as I can punch. You know what I'm saying? That's the whole point. [00:28:11] Speaker B: I think you package it well, because even your joke with the wheelchair one, you was like, I'm not going to do da Da, da, da. But then you did a whole buildup about how you intentionally went past that person and he was offended that you didn't roast her. And then you start going right here. That's the way you set it up. Yeah, it was a. It's a good setup. [00:28:29] Speaker C: There's that. And I have this other joke about a Vietnamese car dealer that, like, I had a big opportunity that I missed on because they were like, oh, we don't like the Vietnamese car dealer joke. And then. But I'm like, every time I do it, the Asians are rolling, like, slapping each other. [00:28:42] Speaker A: Karate in the special. They didn't want it. [00:28:44] Speaker C: No, no, no. I didn't even put it in the special. [00:28:45] Speaker A: Got you. [00:28:46] Speaker C: But this was like. Like this. I think I've. Like, I've. In the videos that are out on social media, like, you'll see me be like, oh, my. Like, I speak like, that is just one word from a whole bit. It's like eight minutes. And I cut the bit out because I didn't want to burn it up online because it's good. But I was going out for something, and the powers that be were like, you know, we don't know how that's going to be received, so, you know, we're not going to go with. I was like, just tell me what you want, because I got a whole bucket of stuff. I pull out this gumbo. What you need? You want crab? You want andouille sausage? What you want? You know, and so. But they're used to people having standard sets where what you just saw on that tape is what they do versus being like, what do you want me. Cause I'll bring what you need. [00:29:26] Speaker A: Facts. [00:29:27] Speaker C: You see what I'm saying? So, yeah, it's a dance. Also, to bring it full circle to your question about the kids of today, I think that, yes, they do need to hear about themselves. They do need, because that's. That's why we dress better, move better, smell better. If you funky, they gonna tell you your breath snakes. Somebody gonna be like, look at that. Like, that's your first way. But if you don't got, like, somebody to pull you to the side and be like, baby brush. Your tongue's gonna say, look at this white tongue ass nigga. You know what I'm saying? God damn, what'd you lick? You know what I'm saying? You gonna learn one way or the other, right? But it's just like the standup. There is a distance that you go because you can traumatize the kid if you Go too far. Now they're like, oh, you like my tongue? You see what I'm saying? And I can see that on a person when I'm talking to them, though. [00:30:13] Speaker A: Has that ever happened? [00:30:14] Speaker C: Yeah, I can see it on a person. [00:30:15] Speaker A: No. Has it ever happened to you where somebody felt like they wrote a letter or where you felt like you went too far? [00:30:21] Speaker C: Yeah, once recently, actually. I didn't tell you, but we were in. [00:30:25] Speaker A: He talking to his assistant off camera. [00:30:27] Speaker C: Yeah, she off camera. We were in. We were in Medford, Massachusetts. [00:30:30] Speaker A: I didn't tell you, but some shit went down. [00:30:32] Speaker C: Cause it was right by her. I figured she met him. But we were in Medford, Massachusetts, and I was signing posters, and there was a couple that I was like, man, I like you guys for each other. So I made a poster and I'm like, man, you know, I hope y' all make it. I signed it. Bop. The guy is like. The girl goes, make one for each of us in case we break up. I was like, what? So then the next one I wrote, I was like, what's your name? He was like, james. I was like, james, you are so much better without her. And I signed that one. And then on the third one I wrote, you know you miss James. And then I signed that one, and I gave all three to them. And the girl was so mad, like. She was like. She literally, like, left and came back. She was like, you know what, Nate? Fuck you. Like, she was that mad. [00:31:15] Speaker A: She was Caucasian bitch. [00:31:16] Speaker C: Pick up, pick up. Whole song. I know it's radio, and you didn't see my face, but my face was. [00:31:23] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah, there it is. [00:31:25] Speaker C: What's she, Caucasian? Yeah. Who the fuck you. [00:31:28] Speaker A: What's her name? Karen. [00:31:30] Speaker C: No, she was. Yeah, but I call them Karen, so they be caring too much. But that girl, I don't know. I can't remember her name. I wrote it, too, on all three, so I don't remember. But, like, some people just can't take a joke. And whether it's on stage or outside of that, it's like, do you do realize you said, do another one of you? So this is. If y' all don't make it, you know, you miss him. And also, fuck her. You know what I'm saying? [00:31:52] Speaker A: I remember talking to a couple of comic homies. I talked to D. Ray about it, and I know it happened in D.C. where people got offended and went up on stage. Has that ever happened to you? [00:32:00] Speaker C: No. [00:32:01] Speaker B: Like, ran up on stage? [00:32:02] Speaker C: Yeah, yeah, I seen. [00:32:03] Speaker A: Has anybody. What about outside the comedy club? [00:32:05] Speaker C: No, I had a girl come on stage, but she wasn't offended. We were in. We were in Miami. [00:32:13] Speaker A: How you remember all these cities? [00:32:14] Speaker C: I forget the cities, but this was recent, so I'm like, I know where I was. And the reason I remember is because she had on Miami clothes. Like, there was like, she had like a Miami Dolphins jersey on. Okay. The girl was deaf. Oh, and usually you would see like the sign person. Like, they'd have them on stage so whoever's in the crowd can see them. [00:32:31] Speaker A: You're very inclusive. You have a sign person do your jokes. [00:32:34] Speaker C: No, they bring. If you go to a comedy club and say you need one, they have to provide one for you. [00:32:40] Speaker A: Get the fuck outta here. [00:32:41] Speaker C: Right? But this girl brought like her homegirl. So at a tall top for two people, the girl is signing right in her face. And that's what I noticed. I'm like, God, point blank, like, look at that. You gonna blow her head off. Some big ass letters, you know what I'm saying? It wasn't just like, it wasn't subtle, like, from the like, right there. He said that. He went, no, she was like. He said that he was over. So I was like, yo, you ladies sign and you come up here. So I brought her up there and I'm like, I wanted you to have a great experience. [00:33:10] Speaker B: Wait, wait, wait. You see somebody in the crowd doing sign language you brought up. [00:33:15] Speaker C: I brought the sign language. So she could look at like everyone. [00:33:18] Speaker A: Yeah, she could look at stage like. [00:33:19] Speaker C: Plus the crowd was. The reason I even picked up on it is because I saw people's attention off me when I. And again I'm like, what are they looking at? I just followed some eyes and I was like, there's a lot going on over there. So I said, come up here. So the focal point is the stage again. Well, I don't know how, but just like this was enough for one to get up. And then shortly after that, the deaf girl came up and so she just. She came on stage, she stayed the same distance from the lady as she was at the table. [00:33:45] Speaker A: So she. Where did. Where you on stage? [00:33:47] Speaker C: I'm on stage, middle of the stage. [00:33:48] Speaker A: It got your stool. [00:33:49] Speaker C: Sign language, lady, please come up here so that while she's at the table, she can look up here like the rest of the crowd. Yeah, soon as she got up and came, so did the. She came right up and she was right back at the point blanks. But next to me though. Yeah. And I was like, how do you say, get the pills off? Yeah, but there Was like, there was a couple other people in the front that knew some sign language. I'm like, could you tell her she don't have to come on stage with her somebody? [00:34:12] Speaker A: You need a sign language translator for the sign language translator, right? [00:34:15] Speaker C: And it was. Yeah, yeah. So the sign language lady was like an Indian lady. She was like, Punjabi. And then the lady that was helping was like a Miami sister with long fingernails. So hers were just clicking while she was doing it. Yeah, we had a whole moment with it. It was a good time. [00:34:32] Speaker A: How do you roast somebody in sign language? Like, how do you roast a deaf person? Have you ever done that? [00:34:36] Speaker C: Yes, twice. [00:34:38] Speaker A: How do you do that? [00:34:43] Speaker C: No, everyone's laughing. [00:34:45] Speaker B: No, it's the person laughing. [00:34:47] Speaker C: Yeah, I'll stop if they not. You know what I'm saying? Then I'll just throw I love you. Like, I'm trying to win here. You know what I'm saying? I know that means I love you. I throw up my pinky finger, index finger. That don't mean that in la. This means what in the. That look like Paul Ruby. We good? [00:34:59] Speaker A: That's some other shit. [00:34:59] Speaker C: We all right. [00:35:00] Speaker A: I mean, yeah, but go ahead. [00:35:02] Speaker C: Is this something? [00:35:03] Speaker A: Yes. [00:35:04] Speaker C: What's this? [00:35:05] Speaker A: That's Omega Sci Fi. [00:35:06] Speaker C: That's what I am. But when I was over wearing a frat shirt over in Watts, everybody kept saying, Grape Street. Grape Street. I had to get up outta there. Yeah. [00:35:13] Speaker A: Because it's purple. [00:35:15] Speaker B: Was it a logo? [00:35:16] Speaker A: No, they wear purple. Omegas wear purple. [00:35:19] Speaker C: So I have a frat brother that made a song while he was in college. And then the song went crazy. He got like all these artists on it. He got Chris Brown and Ludacris and. And Tyga on this song that we had heard back in the day. Went crazy. Right? K Mac. [00:35:33] Speaker A: Yeah. Shout out to Kevin McCall. [00:35:34] Speaker C: Yeah, Kmac. And so that's my guy.

I just went back to the Valley. Like, they ain't tripping over there, man. Shit. [00:36:51] Speaker A: Oh, shit. [00:36:53] Speaker C: I'm safe over here, guys. [00:36:54] Speaker A: Hella funny. [00:36:55] Speaker C: That's real. I turned into a joke later. I was like, I drove home through West Hollywood and topless, man. It was all in the sunroof. What's that you claim? So I turned it into a joke, but that was real. I would have been in the video Day three in la. Like, man, I'm in a video. But I had on Ichi Rose everything and then changed to a Q shirt. I was like, I'm just living. I'm from Seattle and I'm an Omega, and. And almost caught. Whatever was supposed to come from that, bro. If it. If. I'm telling you, it probably. I'd probably been whatever. [00:37:22] Speaker A: What's funny is where you was at, you was on the east side. [00:37:26] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:37:27] Speaker A: What's funny is you would have been better off in the Mariner shit than you would been, apparently, that at that. [00:37:34] Speaker C: Time, somebody was beefing with. With the purple guys. Yeah, yeah. [00:37:39] Speaker A: Yep, we gonna call it that. [00:37:40] Speaker C: But somebody was beefing with Grape street, and they were like, bruh, if they retaliate, you, you're gonna get hurt wearing that here. Yeah. So I was like, you know what? I don't know the temperature. Let me just change. And then I changed the wrong. You know what I'm saying? [00:37:51] Speaker A: That's hella funny, bro. [00:37:53] Speaker B: How much of your material is based on real life experiences? [00:37:56] Speaker C: 100% of it. Even if it's not my life, like, I was exposed to. Like, I've got a bunch of stuff on Diddy right now. And all I'm doing is just paying attention to the news to be like, dang. And that's the other thing. If somebody is like, oh. All they do is crowd work. They don't got joke. You realize I'm writing jokes live. That's way more difficult. Listen, it is way more. And it takes way more risk and faith. And I shot a special. Do you know. You know, everybody around is like, okay, what you gonna do? Like, nigga, I don't know. But just film it. Like, brother, this a big budget. Are you sure you don't know what you're gonna say? I said, I don't know what's gonna happen. All right, well, we're doing four shows, so we can try to catch it. And this is 99% the second show word. Yeah, that's almost all. Second show Saturday. And it would have been first show Saturday, but my shoe came untied. I kept thinking about that. So then the next day was just. Let's just get different shots. So, like, that shot when I'm coming out from above, that was a Sunday shot. Or when I cooked the balcony, that was a Sunday shot when I said, let me talk to the audience, and they ballyhooed. That's where the lights go all over. [00:38:59] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:39:00] Speaker C: Cause we couldn't turn the lights on in the special, but we could go like that with them and then turn the room yellow. Wow. Does that make sense? [00:39:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:39:09] Speaker B: So you're. Are you wearing the same thing for each. [00:39:11] Speaker C: Yeah. You have to have four outfits. [00:39:12] Speaker B: Okay. [00:39:13] Speaker C: And so I. And so I have. I have a clothing line called the Roses. That's what I'm wearing now. And so I had the roses pants. I just had the. And then I got lucky because I was like, I ain't got no shoes, and if I do, I definitely don't have four pairs of shoes ready to go. And I just stopped that foot action. Like, what black shoes y' all got? They're like, the J3s came out today. I was like, are there any left? They're like, we got. We got two. [00:39:34] Speaker B: You walked in this to a shoes. What size shoe you wear? [00:39:37] Speaker C: 13S. [00:39:38] Speaker B: And they had your socks. [00:39:39] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:39:40] Speaker B: Wow. [00:39:41] Speaker C: But people were walking in, walking out with them. The whole time I was talking to him. [00:39:44] Speaker B: Okay, okay. [00:39:45] Speaker C: But the guy was like, yo, we got one last. We got one last one. Yeah, Nate, right? I'm like, yeah. I'm like, yeah, Nate, I'm about to do my special tonight. [00:39:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:52] Speaker A: Yeah, I need that. [00:39:53] Speaker C: So I got the One from them, because they said he had two. And then he went back. He's like, like, man, something like, just like. I saw the dude leave with the other one. [00:39:59] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:59] Speaker C: And then I went to the other shoe store across, like, on the other side of the hallway down some. And they were like, we got one pair left. It's a 12 and a half. And I was like, all right, well, I'm gonna be balled up for one and extended for another one. [00:40:11] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:40:11] Speaker C: And so that's how I got the. I said two pairs of shoes and then four pairs of pants and four hoodies. But for the hoodies, that's too hot to perform a special in. So we cut the armpits out and put black football jersey mesh under. Under both arms and then under the hoodie neck where it would be hot on your neck. So. And then we cut the entire inside of the hoodie pocket out and put the mesh in there. So it was like I could at least handle. So as much sweat as I was wiping, that was breathable. [00:40:39] Speaker A: It was breathing. [00:40:40] Speaker C: That was the AC version you turned into a windbreaker. [00:40:43] Speaker A: Right. You mentioned the clothing line. You as an entrepreneur at the Super Funny Comedy club. And Tacoma. [00:40:50] Speaker C: Where? [00:40:51] Speaker A: Tacoma, huh? [00:40:52] Speaker C: Yeah. Say that twice. Let that roll off your toes. [00:40:54] Speaker A: In Tacoma, Washington. I. With ctac. I've been up there a few times. [00:40:58] Speaker C: Yeah. CTAC is its own city. [00:40:59] Speaker A: I know, but all the region. The region, yeah. [00:41:03] Speaker C: Yeah. 253. [00:41:04] Speaker A: So I guess, first of all, congrats. [00:41:08] Speaker C: It's where we wear manners clothes and we're not banging. [00:41:11] Speaker A: I mean, no, no, it's. No, it's niggas up there. Yeah, but it's niggas up there. Cause I used to go DJ for them. [00:41:17] Speaker C: N. Yeah, we got it. [00:41:18] Speaker A: Anyway, I already know. I already know. [00:41:21] Speaker C: We've cleaned up the community. [00:41:22] Speaker A: Nah, I know them niggas up there. But, yeah, so you got that going. And I guess as a business owner, as an entrepreneur now, is it hard to do both? No, it's not hard to do both. [00:41:33] Speaker C: It's a different hat. [00:41:34] Speaker A: And then also, how do you decide who gets to perform? Because you will probably want someone who's looking for a shot. [00:41:41] Speaker C: Yes and no. So the program for a comedy club, you need to have five shows on a weekend, maybe four, but definitely two on a Friday, two on a Saturday. That needs to be somebody. A national headliner that has a real following through the week. You need to have open mic on some point. And then you can do promoter shows Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, or like, that's how Chocolate Sundays is so successful. Because Laugh Factory doesn't need the Sunday. [00:42:03] Speaker A: Correct. [00:42:04] Speaker C: See what I'm saying? So my programming for booking headliners is people that I respect on stage, people that I know can follow me or that are hard to follow, that have a following, and through the week, that's where I'll take my chances through the week on Wednesday, Thursday and all that. As of late, the demand to see me has been so high. At home, I'm what, twice a month I'm doing a show just on a random Wednesday. Now I'm working on the programming to bring my crowd work joints back. On first Wednesdays and then the other three Wednesdays, do super funny presents where it's me for like 35, 40 minutes, and then you don't know who's coming out the door. [00:42:42] Speaker A: That's hard. [00:42:43] Speaker C: It's gonna be too. I feel like, yeah, that's hard. You just got to trust me. [00:42:47] Speaker A: Now, when somebody bombs in your club, do you have a conversation with them? [00:42:51] Speaker C: There's nothing to say, man. They know. If they're delusional, I will. [00:42:55] Speaker A: What's that? Have you had that conversation? [00:42:57] Speaker C: Delusional comics? Yeah, that's a thing where people are like, I killed. And you're like, what? [00:43:04] Speaker B: No, you died. [00:43:08] Speaker C: No, you died is hysterical. You didn't kill. You died. But no, for real, there's people that, like, they can't. They don't have the self awareness to know whether or not they just rocked. [00:43:18] Speaker B: What's that advice? [00:43:19] Speaker C: What is what. [00:43:20] Speaker B: What's that advice? Like, what do you. What do you say when you're giving them advice during that conversation? [00:43:23] Speaker C: A delusional person? Yeah. Nothing. There's nothing you can say. They're delusional. They don't even believe you. [00:43:28] Speaker A: So you just log off. I'm just. [00:43:29] Speaker C: You're like, bro, that was like, that was not good. And they're like, what wasn't good? I'm amazing. I was killing out there. I'm like, do we. I can show you the. The footage. We have footage. I'll show you. So when you said that, listen to this part right after, when I click play again. Yeah. You see how. Ain't nothing happening right there. That's where people laugh. So when you say you kill, you have to show people. They're like, dang, I do need to work on that, huh, boss? Yeah. Shit. [00:44:02] Speaker B: On the game. [00:44:02] Speaker C: Or you're delusional. Now if somebody is, you know, they come off and they are like, man, I just had a rough one. I need to know what I need to change or what I need to, you know, I mean, like, what do I need to tweak? Like. And that's where I'm like, okay, do this, do that, get to this faster. Yeah. And I'm. I'm huge on. I mean, again, I'm a Q. We're big on uplift. I'm. I get. I probably do too much. People are like, that's enough. You've. You're giving them the whole game. Like, that's just me. I'm like, all y' all gather round. Let me tell you something. That's been me. [00:44:26] Speaker A: That's what's up. [00:44:27] Speaker B: Do comedians. I don't know if this is a thing, but, like, co writing or writing together, does that look the same way as we look at it in hip hop? [00:44:35] Speaker C: I don't know how you look at it in hip hop. [00:44:37] Speaker B: We was just having this conversation. Lil Wayne's son said that he wrote all of Drake's music. He said Lil Wayne wrote all of Drake's music. [00:44:45] Speaker C: His big records from jail. [00:44:49] Speaker B: We didn't know. We don't know what he talking about. [00:44:50] Speaker C: It sounded like him. So. [00:44:52] Speaker B: Okay, we don't know what he talking about. But obviously, if Drake has had this situation before where Lil Wayne's son said. [00:45:00] Speaker C: My dad wrote all of Drake's music. Yeah, that's. I mean, timing wise, Wayne was going to jail. He needed somebody to hold down young money. Right. [00:45:09] Speaker B: That was the point he made. [00:45:10] Speaker C: But I could see that. But I also seen somebody with tattoos on their face that sounded a lot like what was day, Day, night, daylight. Daylight. Wouldn't he a writer for Drake, too? [00:45:20] Speaker A: Nah, that's. That was. [00:45:22] Speaker B: It's been said, though. [00:45:22] Speaker A: Yeah, it's been said, but that's not. [00:45:24] Speaker C: Child. I don't know what I'm talking about now. [00:45:26] Speaker B: But, yeah, no, that's been said. [00:45:28] Speaker C: That's looked down upon. I want to know the artist I'm listening to is thorough. [00:45:31] Speaker B: Is it the same way with comedians? [00:45:33] Speaker C: Absolutely. [00:45:34] Speaker B: Okay. [00:45:34] Speaker C: You know, I'm saying now and the difference. And I bet it's the same with artists. Like, they can be like, look, say this, go this, this way, but it doesn't work unless they put their own sauce on it. [00:45:44] Speaker A: It's advice. It's not like writing somebody's whole. [00:45:47] Speaker C: No, because they're telling you what's. Like. If I could write jokes for you and be like, hey, you got to say your way, though. [00:45:52] Speaker A: Got you. Here's the. Here's everything. Here's the premise. [00:45:55] Speaker C: They're Spoon feeding you the whole. Yeah, here's the setup, the premise, the punchline. Now you're like, okay, I. That out. How am I gonna add. [00:46:01] Speaker A: Cook it my way. [00:46:02] Speaker C: Exactly. [00:46:03] Speaker A: What about people stealing jokes? [00:46:04] Speaker C: Yes. And people stolen from me so much. [00:46:07] Speaker A: I know, I know. That's. I saw that on the online, where people was talking about people taking your shit. What's the penalty for that? In the. [00:46:14] Speaker C: In the world, there isn't necessarily one. I mean, you can copyright a joke by mailing it to yourself or sending it off and trying to protect it. That way, in general, there needs to be, like, a threat of danger because people won't steal if they, like. If I do it and they find out I'll be hurting. That makes sense. And so that's not conducive to being a funny person. But I have. A long time ago, like, I. I just couldn't. Like, somebody took a closer. And that's when I was like, I got to say something. It's one thing. [00:46:41] Speaker A: You addressed the person. [00:46:42] Speaker C: I did. I waited all night long, and then I went and I said something at. [00:46:46] Speaker A: In person. [00:46:46] Speaker C: In person. [00:46:47] Speaker B: What'd you say? What was that conversation? [00:46:48] Speaker C: I said, that was my closer. Why would you do my closer? And their response was, I've been doing that joke longer than you've been doing comedy. And I said. I said, no, you have it. Cause I know all your stuff. I'm a fan of you. I said, if you're gonna take something, okay, but don't take my closer. Nigga, I'm just trying to stand up. [00:47:05] Speaker B: Did you end up switching it and. [00:47:06] Speaker C: Then they said no? They was like, you know what? You good. I won't. You good. I won't touch it. [00:47:10] Speaker A: What? [00:47:10] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:47:11] Speaker A: That was basically an admission. [00:47:13] Speaker C: It was. You can't not admit it. We all just watched it. The crowd saw it. I went first and then said comic went. And then it was a two show night. I was on the first show. [00:47:22] Speaker A: All right, where's the show at that. [00:47:24] Speaker C: What show? This doesn't exist online. [00:47:26] Speaker B: You asking the wrong questions. I want to know who did it. [00:47:29] Speaker A: That's. He not gonna say it. That's why I'm not seeing details on the show. [00:47:31] Speaker C: I wouldn't say it if I already addressed it because it's already dead. [00:47:34] Speaker A: It's already dead. [00:47:35] Speaker C: You already handled it. Right. So there's that. Then I had another comic take a bit. Then I had another comic who I will probably end up addressing. There's two. There's one that's trying to steal my essence entirely. Right now where I'm like, come on, fam. [00:47:49] Speaker B: Old or new? [00:47:50] Speaker C: Older. And then there's another one that's kind of popping right now or is very popping right now and. And is kind of getting vocal about, like, crowd work not being, you know, oh, that's for lesser comics. And I'm like, what, you stole jokes from me? Who's lesser? But I don't, you know, there's no need to get all, you know, to what they call a fight. You're just throwing back and forth. Because I'm gonna be speaking facts and they just gonna be trying to stand on ego. So unless there's some, I don't know, it's no point. Plus, I like to see, as crazy as it sounds, I like to see us win. And I feel away about. Even though I spoke my truth, it took food out of black families mouths, black kids. Like, I don't. I don't want to do that. Yeah, I saw what happened when Joe Rogan took the mic at the Comedy Store and the aftermath of that for Carlos Mencia. Yes, I'm mad, but it can be handled in a way where I don't have. You know what I mean? This isn't the form to be like, let me tell you who they are. [00:48:47] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:48:47] Speaker C: You know what I'm saying? Plus, sometimes the truth just, it comes out on its own. [00:48:52] Speaker A: What do you. I watch when I, when I watch DJs perform or when I go hear DJs, I'm always on some. Like, I just beat Kahama, so I critique the dj. What's some things that you watch, you ain't gotta say who, but when you've watched other specials, what are things that you've noticed or critiqued? [00:49:08] Speaker C: People leave a lot of meat on the bone. Like, they will have gone through the trouble of setting up a whole thing and then get to the part. Because it's, It's. There's your setup and then there's the payoff. And the right way to do it is your setup should be maybe 10% of that entire topic or whatever. 90% of that should be joke after joke after joke after act, out after mix up after act. And so the setups be too much. They'd be too much where you're like, and then. And then you waited all that time and then the payoff isn't worth it. So that's where you see people be like, oh, you know, I'll head out. Like, it's what gives me grace at these live shows in packed theaters. When I drop down And I just talk to a couple in the middle of the room. They're like, every time he do it, he come out with something. So let's just give him the grace to find the thing, right? So when I watch other specials, I'm like, man, there was meat on the bone. They just like, they didn't. Like you should have just. Yeah, like mind map that out or something. Do some bubbles on a blank piece of paper. Til you find some more stuff. [00:50:11] Speaker A: What about comics using their specials as like pieces to kind of talk about themselves where it's not necessarily a comedy special. Like, you look at like the Dave Chappelle when he did the Small club out there. And then when you look at what Jamie Foxx just did, people say like, oh, well, it wasn't like a comedy special. It was more like a TED Talk. A TED Talk. [00:50:34] Speaker C: I'm so glad Jamie Foxx is back on stage in any capacity. Facts, I don't care what it is. But they also didn't call it a comedy special. The marketing was very specific. Like they called it like a night with Jamie Foxx or a night of entertainment. Jamie is one of our most talented humans ever. So whatever gets him comfortable enough to come back to the stage, do that. What we saw there. How about, he was so hot that him being like, I'm just gonna go on stage and tell my story about what happened. Netflix was like, ain't we airing it? You know what I'm saying? Like, that's how talented. Nah, that. There's some people that are so talented, I don't care what they're doing on stage. I'm gonna sit down, I'm gonna give it my attention to be like, okay, what? Because it might not be hilarious or was never designed to be hilarious, but how many gems was in that? Yeah. How much dope stuff was in that? Then I'm like, whoo, I'm glad I gave that my time. [00:51:21] Speaker A: I look at it like testimonies. It's like this person delivering their testimony. [00:51:25] Speaker C: I can see it, you know, it's a live biography. It's an autobiography that you're watching. They're picking a specific set of events from their life to tell the story. You know what I mean? And what's the difference between that and Dave Chappelle telling you all the different times he met O.J. right? Like, it's hilarious. You're going like, so it's fine with me. [00:51:45] Speaker A: I do want to skip over all of your other stuff, like television and all that stuff, but I kind of wanted to focus on like the special and your tours and stuff like that. But I gotta ask you about one last thing. From being a working comic. Cause you own the road 24 7. Are you ever concerned about cancel culture? Do you believe in it? Does it exist? I know we talked about sensitivity, but what's your take on it? [00:52:07] Speaker C: My take is I think you can be canceled for actions. I don't think it's necessarily for words. Because you can be like, I had an epiphany or I learned or I can, you know, you can apologize. And the right apology sincere. And if you really apologize, I think you can un cancel yourself. Now, if you physically did something like you didn't beat the shit out of a little old lady, they just gonna keep playing the video back. Now I don't care how sorry he is. He hit her with a overhand. Right, right. So there's that. The other thing is when people get into. They get on the track to what could be cancel culture. The part I do not understand is why they stop making art. I don't get that. Like if you're just keep creating, please. Like that might get you out. Like, yeah, he, you know, we don't know. But that album though. You know what I'm saying? But then they just. There's no art to. Now you're going, what have you done for me lately? And what you've done for them. What you've done for us lately has that negative connotation to it. [00:53:00] Speaker B: You gotta drop a step in the name of love. Okay, Everybody forget. [00:53:04] Speaker C: He should have dropped a two step in the name of love. There's something right there. When that was going on, he did some more. [00:53:12] Speaker B: It was like a seven minute song. [00:53:14] Speaker C: It was bad, but more. [00:53:16] Speaker A: It gotta be a slap. [00:53:17] Speaker C: Gotta slap. [00:53:18] Speaker B: It wasn't a slap. [00:53:18] Speaker A: It got a slap. [00:53:19] Speaker C: Yeah. At least to drive your hive or your fan base wild. To be like, get up off of em. Yeah. You know what I mean? So yeah, I believe is there. But I don't know where we're at now in society. Because it feels like there's been 10 years of yo, cancel this, cancel that, and then another five of things should be un. Cancelable. [00:53:42] Speaker B: I think us as black people though, we'll fall into the trend of council culture. But I feel like we also forget and forgive quicker. [00:53:53] Speaker C: No. [00:53:54] Speaker B: You don't think so? [00:53:54] Speaker C: No way. Black people the quickest to be like, uh, hell no. Well, we'll remind you and church black people first. Let's just be real. [00:54:03] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:54:04] Speaker C: No, first they judge you Mm. [00:54:07] Speaker B: First they judge you, but the. Not to get all serious, but like, the term, like rapey uncle to me has gone shit. You know how that. Oh, everybody got a rape. You know, like that's not even nothing that should have been normalized in the black community. That's what I mean with forgiving and forgetting and moving on and sweeping shit under the rug, acting like nothing happened. But we gonna remind your ass what. [00:54:29] Speaker C: You did when just at the barbecue. You eat last probably any and everywhere. [00:54:36] Speaker B: Okay, you get your broke ass away from me because you owe me $5. [00:54:40] Speaker C: Broke ass and owing money is different than the Rapiano Rapianca we gonna. [00:54:44] Speaker B: Oh, I went to. [00:54:45] Speaker C: I went right. [00:54:47] Speaker B: That was just an example. [00:54:48] Speaker C: We're gonna remind you of your shortcomings. Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure, for sure. Yeah. [00:54:52] Speaker A: Is there any. Is there a person that you would like? You know how fighters have artists walk them out? Is there an artist, a hip hop artist or R and B, I guess, if that's because I know you do that too. At this point, I'm dabbling, dabbling. Is there an artist that you have walk you out to? Do you know the biggest arena show or the biggest stadium show you ever did? [00:55:12] Speaker C: It was R B.
