00:00:10.000
Your Instagram is one of my favorite, for sure.
00:00:14.000
Yeah, you're doing you, but you're doing it correctly.
00:00:22.000
That's all I've been on there from day one, and that's what got me this far, and it's been working, so why not?
00:00:28.000
Yeah, man, you know, I found out about you from two people.
00:00:38.000
But two, because my friend Stylebender is a UFC middleweight champion.
00:00:41.000
He played your song on one of his walkouts or one of his fights.
00:00:48.000
It's just like a lot of stuff I really don't be knowing.
00:00:54.000
So if I can't, especially something like UFC, I'm still new to that.
00:00:59.000
So when he, so when, I think Andrew or Charlemagne the one told me and Instagram told me too and when I looked at it, I was like, oh shit.
00:01:08.000
He did it while Smile Bitch was still bubbling.
00:01:11.000
So he was one of the people that I kind of realized, oh no, this shit going to a whole other level.
00:01:26.000
Shit, to me he did win the title when he did that.
00:01:38.000
I was like, shit, let me see what this is about.
00:01:46.000
I didn't like to see the actual nigga getting his ass whooped.
00:01:50.000
Like, I don't want to keep seeing him get punched, punched, punched.
00:01:54.000
Yeah, I guess because the environment you come from, I try to get away from that type of shit.
00:01:59.000
And so to see it, like, I don't even watch videos like that, seeing somebody get shot in the head.
00:02:03.000
And I'm just starting to get comfortable watching fights.
00:02:08.000
So with that, but now I want to go to a UFC fight now just because now I guess my body or my mind has got desensitized to where it don't bother me as much.
00:02:43.000
I do shit whenever I get a chance to now, as far as traveling.
00:02:50.000
My me time, my space time to gather my thoughts and do my thing.
00:03:01.000
That's kind of where I'm at mentally and everything.
00:03:11.000
I think, well, me for 40. When you're about 40, you need to prepare for 60. I always try to prepare for later.
00:03:20.000
I'm just realizing, because I remember when I was a kid, and I used to be like, man...
00:03:26.000
Man, I want to give my life to God and all that, but I ain't going to have no fun.
00:03:30.000
I'm going to wait until I get about 50. And then here come 50 about to pull up.
00:03:39.000
50 is a cool age, and I just start preparing for when I can't take care of myself.
00:03:50.000
We don't know if it's 100. We don't know if it's 80. We know it ends.
00:03:57.000
How close am I? I know it's about time to wrap up.
00:04:04.000
So I'm like, alright, I know this shit from the end pretty soon some type of way, so let me prepare.
00:04:10.000
And then I look at, I watch old people a lot, so I pay attention to them, so I see what they're going through, and I'm like, alright, it's my turn pretty soon.
00:04:18.000
I had John Witherspoon in earlier in the year with his son, JD. Let me do it.
00:04:34.000
And I remember thinking, like, he was just here.
00:04:41.000
And then a couple months later, the lights shut off.
00:04:49.000
In the big scheme of things, from thousands of years, it's just like that.
00:04:53.000
But a guy like that is this iconic figure, hilarious comedian.
00:05:12.000
I don't see it as weird, though, because I see death is just as much as life.
00:05:19.000
I mean, of course, emotionally, we're emotionally attached to what bothers us, you know, but at the same time, I get it.
00:05:28.000
I think that's the key to all this shit, understanding.
00:05:30.000
Once you understand, you just pretty much got life figured out.
00:05:50.000
But the beginning and the end is pretty much life and death.
00:06:00.000
So it's like, we just think it is because this shit here make us arrogant.
00:06:06.000
And I also think it's a thing, it's a manage your perceptions thing.
00:06:10.000
You know, like, you have to manage your perceptions, like, how you view things.
00:06:13.000
Like, you could freak out about things, or you could just...
00:06:17.000
I mean, it's just how you look at it, and it's...
00:06:19.000
That's what keeps you sane, understanding, like, it's just how you look at it, and understanding there's no good or bad, and shit is what it is.
00:06:36.000
Nothing's more powerful than nature, and once we realize that...
00:06:50.000
And I didn't have no weed or nothing to sit there.
00:07:06.000
I try to share shit like this here because where I'm from, we never seen no shit like this.
00:07:12.000
It was way more interesting than I thought it was going to be.
00:07:15.000
It's like really watching, like being in the hood and watching the fight or watching somebody get shot.
00:07:40.000
I got like an Instagram page where I used to post dope pics from when I traveled and shit.
00:07:53.000
And I'm glad I didn't because I heard people that do take them shots and stuff, they get sick.
00:08:00.000
And plus, I don't eat a lot, so it ain't too much that's going to fuck me up.
00:08:05.000
McDonald's is your friend when you're out the country.
00:08:24.000
And I call it Comedic Guy because I think comedians got the best eye because we observe.
00:08:31.000
So, I mean, you should be able to take good pics if you're a comedian.
00:08:51.000
Matter of fact, me and Andrew one time, we went to, we did the hip, not the hip-hop awards, shit, the MTV awards over in Europe.
00:09:00.000
And while we was over there, the crew and everything, and I traveled a lot, and they was like, man, we finna go get something to eat.
00:09:06.000
They're like, nah, come on, let's go get something to eat.
00:09:12.000
Everybody, the whole crew had to go to the hospital.
00:09:25.000
He said he didn't get it, but he might have listened to me that time.
00:09:30.000
When I go out to the country, I eat shit that I'm used to.
00:09:38.000
McDonald's, you ever see one of those cheeseburgers where they put it on a shelf for a year and they film it for a year to see if it deteriorates?
00:09:44.000
A year later it looks like it just got put there?
00:09:54.000
If space food is good for astronauts, it got to be good for us.
00:10:16.000
I think that was Jack in the Box though, right?
00:10:24.000
That shit that you just showed on there, I'm pretty sure it's E. coli and that shit.
00:10:30.000
That's one thing I did learn too from traveling at the end of the day.
00:10:37.000
When I go over to Asia, they eat everything moving.
00:10:50.000
It's a style of video that they do in Korea, where Korea, I guess they're proper and polite when they eat.
00:11:02.000
So they have these videos that are real popular where they just eat like slobs.
00:11:06.000
They'll eat like an octopus, and they just splatter food all over their face and make a lot of noises while they chew.
00:11:16.000
Millions and millions of views of people watching someone eat.
00:11:21.000
Our view of millions and their view ain't that much.
00:11:32.000
But it's not billions of Koreans, but I guess it's worldwide.
00:11:40.000
Hey, Siri, how many Koreans are there out here?
00:11:59.000
You know, let me just do the paper, write, type it, the old-fashioned one.
00:12:30.000
Endlessly fucked up that there's a population of people that live amongst us, can't get green cards, and if they left, like you ever see the documentary A Day Without Mexicans?
00:12:49.000
Yeah, but they can't because they don't have the paperwork.
00:12:54.000
If people come over here illegal in their valet parking and washing dishes and doing all these different jobs and landscaping and everything they can do, if they stopped, other people are just going to take their job.
00:13:06.000
Nobody's going to take a job that's paying $2 an hour.
00:13:11.000
Nobody other than someone else just like them that needs that opportunity, and they're all coming over.
00:13:16.000
They would have to organize, and they would have to have some resources and need to sustain themselves while they're organizing.
00:13:22.000
But the thing is, the green card thing is, there should be a way where someone can earn a green card.
00:13:27.000
I mean, if someone's been over here for all this time, doing great, having a good life, being a good part of the community, but they're still not...
00:13:41.000
Like, we always say, like, we got to let everybody in because that's how we got here.
00:13:46.000
But then when they get full and look like LA and traffic like a motherfucker, and then you're like, all right, go back home.
00:13:51.000
We don't want y'all, you don't want no tourists here.
00:14:03.000
If you wanted to make a perfect solution, what you would do is you'd have tests for everybody.
00:14:09.000
But I don't know about that, because when you get over here, you're kind of slow to American thought.
00:14:15.000
Like, you couldn't have a test like that, because it'd be biased.
00:14:19.000
Maybe, but, I mean, who works harder than Mexicans?
00:14:25.000
What's the test going to be like, who can build a house?
00:14:32.000
Are you a person that's a valuable member of the community?
00:14:34.000
Well, nowadays with technology, they could just put something in you and scan you and figure it out.
00:14:42.000
Yeah, but then you gotta figure out what would they be looking for to see if they can let you in.
00:14:46.000
They convicted a lady in India from a brain scan of murder.
00:14:51.000
They used an fMRI and they said that through this machine they were able to detect functional knowledge of the murder.
00:15:06.000
I think they just didn't understand the science.
00:15:08.000
If they wrote something about it, it can happen or it's gonna happen.
00:15:13.000
But I think that where they're at right now, if this person really did get convicted, I don't think they really understand the science.
00:15:18.000
I think they're just convicting them because someone said it makes sense, and then there's not enough people that actually understand how little you actually can read.
00:15:27.000
Like, she could have been told about the scene and then developed a functional memory.
00:15:34.000
Because you're reading something in the brain that's not clearly defined yet.
00:15:38.000
It's just like if you told me something, I'd be like, well, somebody told me after a while, if you keep replaying in your head, you think you told yourself.
00:15:46.000
You think maybe it was your story and it was somebody else's story.
00:15:51.000
Especially like minor shit from like 20 years ago.
00:16:03.000
I post something 10 years ago, a tweet, and the next thing I know somebody else do it, and then I bring it back.
00:16:17.000
That's the reason why I like technology, too, because it kind of keeps our brain in here.
00:16:23.000
It keeps our brain in here, so you just got to pay for it.
00:16:36.000
You have to pay for your brain for the rest of your life.
00:16:38.000
And that video of that line, it's just like one of those fucked up old memories.
00:16:47.000
You said you don't feel like you got life figured out.
00:17:02.000
I understand, you know, what it takes to be creative.
00:17:05.000
I thought that about you, but like, so what, you feel like you missing something?
00:17:11.000
When you look at it, when you really look at what it is, it's bizarre as fuck.
00:17:15.000
All these random interactions taking place simultaneously amongst billions of people swarming on a planet that's spinning and twirling through infinity, going through the galaxy.
00:17:29.000
When you see all that and you notice all that, you realize we are pretty much an ant in the big scheme of things.
00:17:37.000
We're just out here, so it makes no sense to put that much thought into this bullshit.
00:17:47.000
Yeah, it's not like I want to think about it all the time, but I just do.
00:17:50.000
Like, I'm damn near wanna go to Mars and all that shit, you know?
00:17:55.000
But I just don't wanna be the only nigga up there.
00:18:02.000
I don't want to be there six months unless it's a party on that goddamn shit.
00:18:17.000
They don't tell us nothing, and then when we get there, they be like, alright, we're here.
00:18:21.000
Yeah, because if you think about it, Earth is like a spaceship, like a convertible spaceship.
00:18:29.000
Yeah, I mean, the only thing that saves us is the atmosphere.
00:18:38.000
It'd be like an apartment complex versus a whole city.
00:18:43.000
That's what them motherfucking billionaires should be trying to do.
00:18:57.000
How does the sun, how come, maybe I'm just being retarded or something, but how does the sun heat the earth up, but not the moon?
00:19:12.000
But, yeah, that's what captures it, but so the heat ain't out there in space?
00:19:17.000
The moon in the sun, it's 250 degrees, and in the shade, it's 250 degrees below zero.
00:19:42.000
The thing is the moon revolves around the sun like this.
00:19:50.000
If you get in the sun, the sun spot, the bright spot of the moon, it's 250 degrees.
00:19:55.000
If you get in the shade, it's 250 degrees below zero.
00:20:02.000
The thing is, they're protected, or they're not, rather, they're not protected by an atmosphere.
00:20:08.000
The atmosphere, the magnetosphere, the oxygen, the nitrogen, all that stuff filters out all the heat and captures it and keeps us steady.
00:20:20.000
From scuba diving, I understand how the moon's important for the ocean and all that.
00:20:26.000
I was sitting there watching my favorite movie, Intercell, and I was just...
00:20:31.000
Yeah, that's a good movie, and I watched that...
00:20:38.000
But I was watching that, and I was watching In A Mankind, that new one that's on Apple Plus.
00:20:43.000
I was watching that, and it's on the moon, and I'm just looking at it, and I'm like, where the sun at?
00:20:47.000
And if the sun would start making me think like that, but...
00:20:54.000
See, there's no atmosphere, and the atmosphere is the reason why we have blue skies.
00:20:59.000
Yeah, I know all that, but I thought that was stopping it from burning us up.
00:21:08.000
It helps us from getting burnt because we have an atmosphere, yes.
00:21:19.000
Like, if you go in the shade, it's fucking cold as shit.
00:21:32.000
Like, I just want to do a selfie with the earth behind me.
00:21:45.000
Yeah, you get to go out there and then come down.
00:21:50.000
I've been sure to pay attention to find out that day.
00:21:57.000
I'm going to start a GoFund and tell them to put me up there.
00:22:04.000
There's another company I know in the Arizona area.
00:22:13.000
Yeah, there's another company that's got like a balloon that's going to shoot people kind of like straight up and come back down.
00:22:21.000
It rides on top of a plane and then it lets go?
00:22:25.000
If I had money like that, I would be kind of like this motherfucker here.
00:22:34.000
Like you get to go like a roller coaster, like two lips up there, maybe.
00:22:37.000
Like 10 minutes, maybe 20. That's my goal right there.
00:22:42.000
That's all I need right there, just to talk shit and stunt.
00:22:47.000
You motherfuckers ain't never did this, though.
00:23:00.000
I want to show them so bad, you stupid motherfuckers!
00:23:15.000
At nighttime, you can really see how round the earth is because it's so pitch black.
00:23:20.000
When you walk out the yard at night, it feels like you're out of space.
00:23:37.000
People didn't think America was here when it was over in the years.
00:23:42.000
So it's just like people don't think outer space.
00:23:44.000
It's hard to think that far because then when you think that far, you got to think about it.
00:23:49.000
The people that didn't think America was here, at least they have the benefit.
00:23:56.000
So it probably was way more of a question whether or not America existed versus whether or not the earth is round.
00:24:06.000
They have satellites that take a photo of it every 10 minutes.
00:24:11.000
The idea that every mission is fake, every space station mission, every satellite, all that's fake.
00:24:18.000
And the weird thing is, a lot of the dudes that are doing it, they're like super Christian.
00:24:22.000
A lot of the flat earth people, they're super Christian.
00:24:25.000
They think that this is all like the idea that we're in space, that we're on a flat ball to keep us from God.
00:24:33.000
I mean, in religion, and I do believe in religion, but in religion, you have to keep them in a certain space to keep their mind focused on that right there because otherwise they...
00:24:57.000
Anything that's going to bring you the love and peace, you can't be mad at it.
00:25:06.000
Evolution, almost like a vehicle for aiding evolution to take us out of our barbarian days into our civilized days and then transcend.
00:25:15.000
But this is religion, what we're doing right here.
00:25:18.000
I know so, because we're conveying and talking and preaching, pretty much.
00:25:24.000
I mean, this is our evolution of, I believe, where we're at.
00:25:28.000
We're at the evolution of entertainment and conversation is like our Bible.
00:25:38.000
I tweet it thinking like 100 years from now, somebody's going to read this shit like we read higher graphics.
00:25:46.000
So it's all of our way of talking shit out and figuring things out.
00:25:49.000
The same how religion was, and that's why they established these parameters.
00:25:53.000
Yes, because you understand, all right, if you go this way, this is what's going to happen.
00:26:02.000
Because if you tell them, they ain't ready for it.
00:26:05.000
Like, alright, I ain't gonna tell them that God was...
00:26:08.000
I mean, that Jesus was really a regular person.
00:26:11.000
Because if you do, ain't nobody gonna trust no regular person.
00:26:16.000
Walk on earth, walk on water, and then you'll trust it.
00:26:26.000
Yeah, especially back then when everybody knew that no one knew what the fuck was going on and they were, you know, they made up of, I mean, not that any of the gods aren't made up, but they'd make up gods.
00:26:37.000
They were the god for thunder, the god of war, the god of this, the god of that, and all these gods battling out over destiny.
00:26:57.000
I mean, it is funny that what people do today when they talk is kind of like they're trying to figure things out and reestab...
00:27:04.000
There's so much change going on with the way people communicate.
00:27:17.000
Everything we're talking about, we're just speaking.
00:27:21.000
Just talking shit we done thought a thousand times and regurgitating, but what really makes us how we move, what we do.
00:27:28.000
It's about how your actions, your actions really much, you're creatures of habit.
00:27:41.000
And the other thing that you just said, we're creatures.
00:27:45.000
Human beings want to think of ourselves as something separate.
00:27:59.000
I bet every other creature be looking at us like, look at these motherfuckers.
00:28:47.000
It's not the same world that it was 50 years ago.
00:28:55.000
I remember I did that one day I was at, in Vegas, at, what's that place where everybody be performing?
00:29:05.000
We was at there, and you know, they got the outside club, and I'm looking at it, and I remember going to Vegas 20 years ago, and I'm like, damn, this shit look like the future.
00:29:14.000
Like, now it looks like how I thought it was going to look 20 years ago, and I was thinking about all the people that didn't see this.
00:29:23.000
I got to stay to see how this shit going to be after this.
00:29:27.000
Even if I'm locked, y'all like this here, I just want to see.
00:29:34.000
Yeah, if you could take a performer from the 1950s from Vegas, the old school performers.
00:29:40.000
And bring him to 2019. They'd be like, what the fuck?
00:29:46.000
Someone hands him a pamphlet of girls that'll come to your room.
00:30:06.000
Like when you see those aliens, the little gray guys, they always have no dick.
00:30:10.000
Like even if you look at Asians, you can't really tell a boy from a girl.
00:30:17.000
They all look like they got the same structure.
00:30:21.000
I think Asians are the oldest people on earth, so they evolved way before.
00:30:31.000
They're definitely 100 years ahead of everybody on earth.
00:30:34.000
Well, they definitely are for technology, for all the things they created.
00:30:39.000
We talked about this yesterday, like a million firsts came out of China.
00:30:51.000
If you want to see how the future going to look, go over there.
00:30:58.000
You see that shit that's going on in Hong Kong?
00:31:01.000
They've been protesting in Hong Kong for how long now?
00:31:16.000
Whatever it was, there was a lot of issues with the Chinese government running them the way they run China.
00:31:25.000
And the people from Hong Kong wanted to be back the way it used to be when it was run by Britain.
00:31:44.000
I mean, just filled with people protesting every day.
00:31:49.000
I mean, it's not something that comes up too much in the news.
00:31:55.000
We just watch it play out just like we do with everything else, with Vegas.
00:31:59.000
That's why I don't get too much into that type of shit, because if I can't change it, it's like, what the fuck I'm going to do?
00:32:05.000
The only thing I can do is change what I think the future is going to be.
00:32:08.000
That shit there is some shit that was planned 50 years ago.
00:32:17.000
It's because I'm watching a group of people with no power try to overcome a tyrannical government.
00:32:34.000
If you're trying to make it not happen to us, we got to figure out why it happened like this and try not to make that happen over here for our butterfly fit.
00:32:42.000
Yeah, well, that's one of the reasons why a lot of...
00:32:46.000
Not very happy that this is happening, but happy to use it as an example of what happens when you have an unarmed population and an armed military that sort of tells it what to do and there's nothing you can do but get in the streets.
00:33:03.000
Like, who's not going to get a gun now if you make it illegal?
00:33:08.000
The people that don't get them, they're going to get illegal guns anyway.
00:33:15.000
But the people, the law-abiding citizens, you make that law, now they can't get one.
00:33:34.000
But remember, there was a guy who got in real big trouble because he released the designs.
00:33:42.000
Or it was supposed to be, and I think they were arguing that you should be able to do that.
00:33:46.000
You can go out in another country and make a YouTube page and do it.
00:33:50.000
The way the world is so connected, you can do pretty much anything you want if you know what you can do.
00:34:12.000
You didn't start smoking weed until four years ago?
00:34:19.000
I mean, I drunk every blue moon like on my birthday, but I don't drink.
00:34:40.000
So as I grew up, I just never gave a fuck about it as much as everybody else did.
00:34:49.000
I used to be in the room just smelling the shit.
00:34:51.000
And then after a while, then once I got to a point in my life where I was like, I can't fall off.
00:35:01.000
And then that was the best thing that ever happened to me.
00:35:05.000
When you tried it, were you like, what the fuck was I... Yeah, I should have been doing this shit.
00:35:10.000
Yeah, because when I first did it, I didn't get high.
00:35:21.000
You know, I was just smoking, smoking, smoking.
00:35:23.000
And then once I started really getting into it, I was like, this shit is really, what's up?
00:35:52.000
Well, that's the only thing that's going to stop the cartels.
00:35:54.000
I don't know what this shit I just smoked, but that shit good as hell.
00:36:05.000
They all have different little names on them, I think.
00:36:39.000
I was saying way too much that I shouldn't be saying, especially in this day and age, when people be in their feelings and shit.
00:36:46.000
Not that I give a fuck, but when you're trying to help people, you want to teach them the right way.
00:36:53.000
What you just said, that people are in their feelings today.
00:36:59.000
Because we're attached to our emotions more, and we don't do that much thinking.
00:37:13.000
But I don't like to blame it on social media because it's just an evolution because they say the same thing about television and all that shit.
00:37:20.000
But I just think it's the use of it to the public.
00:37:31.000
It's just new to the society as one, but over time it'll evolve and we'll get smart enough and figure it out and it won't be that much.
00:37:42.000
Especially in America, they're still learning their feelings.
00:37:47.000
So now we're just at our stage of still learning our feelings and hating each other and all that shit.
00:37:52.000
Once that does settle, then it'll come evolve naturally.
00:38:00.000
He was saying that what you have on Twitter, we've always had, is just people talk.
00:38:07.000
Sometimes people talk and they say shit that's dumb.
00:38:22.000
That's why I was on it quick because I learned it.
00:38:27.000
I'd seen like, oh shit, this is the new real estate.
00:38:31.000
So I applied that to the social media and internet and that's how it worked so good for me.
00:38:42.000
You just got to figure out what it is and take it from the old and apply it to the new.
00:38:53.000
But I think that all the complaining is because people are getting, they have a voice now.
00:39:08.000
So eventually what happens is people are going to wake up to it.
00:39:12.000
And what this is is just a new level of communication.
00:39:15.000
Because everybody can communicate now with almost everybody.
00:39:26.000
We got points like now, people like Dave Chappelle can put out a special talking real shit, and people take it for what it is.
00:39:34.000
Well, five years ago, you had to be like Kevin Hart, you know?
00:39:37.000
So it's like now you can really speak your mind.
00:39:41.000
It did bring out the whole ass motherfuckers at the same time.
00:39:48.000
Like Bill Burchard, that shit was genius to me.
00:39:52.000
Like, five years ago, that special wouldn't have worked as much as it would have got beat down.
00:40:04.000
It takes time for people to warm up to what they don't want to accept.
00:40:09.000
And I think overall, the more reasonable way of looking at things is going to prevail because the dummies won't be as good for me.
00:40:38.000
And that's where I learned about life, through scuba diving.
00:41:00.000
When you get to that point, ain't nothing living down there.
00:41:03.000
The only thing you might see is shipwrecks and shit like that.
00:41:21.000
The only place on earth where you can touch North America and Europe.
00:41:26.000
Oh my god, what if it ground right while you're there?
00:41:28.000
And honestly, I don't even think you can do it no more because they say it spreads a centimeter every year of some shit.
00:41:42.000
All the continents at one point in time, a long time ago, were all connected.
00:41:48.000
They actually can piece them back together and form one landmass.
00:41:52.000
But that's another piece that we're still splitting as we speak.
00:42:13.000
Well, especially this aspect of life, that things are constantly in transition and constantly changing.
00:42:20.000
When you see shit like this here, you know we're thinking backwards.
00:42:24.000
It's like, we should care about this more than we care about that, because...
00:42:37.000
Shit, that hurricane almost hit me in Bahamas, my house.
00:42:40.000
It hit, and I moved, um, the last day, it was coming, it was coming directly to my house, and it moved 10 miles up and missed me.
00:42:49.000
About 10, 10, 20 miles, and it hit Abaco and all that shit.
00:42:55.000
Just that island of, I think, Freeport and Abaco.
00:43:10.000
Do you think that hurricanes are getting worse?
00:43:19.000
That's like a little grasshopper saying, you think the humans are getting worse?
00:43:25.000
They can't control us and we can't control nature.
00:43:28.000
Yeah, but these fucking hurricanes, I think what's causing them is the ocean water and the land is warmer.
00:43:37.000
It's going to definitely die or do something eventually, but there's nothing we can do to stop it.
00:43:43.000
That's why they're trying to find other earths, so we can move out this motherfucker and go somewhere else.
00:43:49.000
Yeah, we're so far away from the earth ending, too.
00:43:53.000
Even though I do believe we need to save the earth more so than anything.
00:43:58.000
Well, we definitely need to save it for ourselves.
00:44:05.000
Even if we blow ourselves up, Earth's going to be fine.
00:44:07.000
Earth's going to be A-OK. As far as life, yeah, we've got to save life.
00:44:31.000
Yeah, they had three tour boats that were there.
00:44:33.000
There was up to 100 people that were there right before it exploded.
00:44:38.000
They would take tours into the crater where you could be like, oh, look at it bubbling.
00:44:45.000
That's why they had this video of it going off.
00:44:49.000
So there's one boat of people that was still there, and that's why people have died.
00:44:57.000
Yeah, they took some drones and were trying to see if they could go help people.
00:45:09.000
Like, other countries, they get them bitches every year.
00:45:17.000
But it happens so much that you understand you're not big as nature.
00:45:23.000
There's definitely spots that don't, like L.A. L.A. does not have it.
00:45:26.000
But Mount St. Helens had a big volcano eruption back in the day.
00:45:35.000
I don't think in this society, man, we couldn't do it.
00:45:40.000
There's no way to get everybody out the way, neither.
00:45:42.000
I don't give a fuck how much we try to plan it.
00:45:51.000
There was a volcano eruption in 1980. Mount St. Helens.
00:45:59.000
That was like right before I was in ninth grade.
00:46:02.000
So I was probably in eighth grade when this was going on.
00:46:10.000
No, no, it's a mountain, you know, but there's enough people that live near it that got jacked.
00:46:15.000
Like, if that hurricane would have hit New York, that would have fucked up America.
00:46:20.000
I don't even think they realize if that hurricane would have...
00:46:23.000
Well, it did, because I was up there when it hit.
00:46:28.000
But do you remember when Tribeca flooded a few years ago in New York?
00:46:32.000
Remember Shane Smith from Vice had a video of it?
00:46:38.000
And the entire area of Tribeca was like underwater.
00:46:42.000
The first four feet of the lobby would be filled with water.
00:46:46.000
So you'd be sloshing through water to get up to the stairs, elevators down, that kind of shit.
00:47:05.000
The only people that'll be alright probably is the Amish.
00:47:16.000
My daughter, I got an old school, like a 75 Caprice.
00:47:33.000
Matter of fact, funny, Andrew, I was trying to get directions here because my shit was fucking up.
00:47:47.000
We don't even know how to use those little simple things.
00:47:52.000
When I first used to get gigs, I used to get a notepad.
00:48:05.000
And you would write the direction down on a piece of paper.
00:48:08.000
For all the different times that I went to these places.
00:48:11.000
That's one of the reasons why I live on the island a lot is to keep my mind...
00:48:17.000
Like, my mind is, if I don't need it on this island, I don't really need it.
00:48:20.000
So I learn how to, so if worst case scenario happened, I could still survive.
00:48:25.000
So if you get stuck on the island, the rest of the world falls apart.
00:48:28.000
Oh, if the rest of the world falls apart, I could still survive like an Amish motherfucker.
00:48:33.000
Not saying I know how to cook, like, kill animals and shit like that, because I ain't good at that yet.
00:48:48.000
Well, in the Bahamas, that's all you're going to need anyway, right?
00:48:54.000
And you could probably have chickens just run around out there.
00:49:02.000
It might probably, you know, a rich motherfucker might be bringing some type of animal up there.
00:49:13.000
That's the place where, is that the Bahamas where all the wild pigs are?
00:49:19.000
It used to be just me and the pigs getting high.
00:49:27.000
Because that's the first place I went back when I started smoking.
00:49:29.000
When I started smoking, I said I want to go everywhere I went before and get hotter.
00:49:37.000
Why do they have wild pigs swimming around there?
00:49:49.000
Throw it in the ocean and you go look at it and people be...
00:49:55.000
Oh, so they put it in there to try to get more people to scuva dive.
00:50:00.000
Yeah, and then it ended up becoming a coral reef and shit like that over time.
00:50:04.000
So it kind of is good, but at the same time, it's really, that's the only reason why they put it in there.
00:50:10.000
It's a weird way to get people, just throw pigs in the ocean.
00:50:13.000
It's weird that people will go all over the country.
00:50:17.000
I've heard people talk about it in LA. There's pictures on my Instagram on the...
00:50:24.000
If you're around them and you don't feed them, they'll bite you in your ass.
00:50:30.000
Motherfucker will be picking them up, taking pictures.
00:50:35.000
I be seeing them trying to get them drunk and shit.
00:50:47.000
I mean, so many tourists come in there, they give them stuff, throw them a little bread and shit.
00:51:01.000
I think Nicolas Cage used to own that island, but he probably sold it.
00:51:11.000
What do they eat out there besides what the people bring?
00:51:28.000
What you think they do when the motherfucker gets big?
00:51:48.000
You know, that happens to regular pigs if you let them wild.
00:51:50.000
Man, pigs do look nasty, but they so fucking good.
00:52:00.000
I had some bacon recently from pigs that they gave chocolate milk and hazelnuts to.
00:52:25.000
I can't really determine what that tastes like.
00:52:34.000
What's weird about the pigs is they're all one thing.
00:52:37.000
Like wild pigs and domestic pigs, they're all the same thing.
00:52:44.000
Their hair grows longer, their nose grows longer, their tusks grow longer, just from being wild.
00:52:58.000
When he knows he's on his own, there's a shift that happens in his biology and his hair starts growing thicker and his nose starts growing longer.
00:53:05.000
That's what scientists can use there for something.
00:53:10.000
Like when we go out there, we're just going to naturally grow horns.
00:53:14.000
We're going to revert back to what we used to be when we had a hunt and gather.
00:53:36.000
That if you get a man sufficiently mad, you can see the caveman in the red gleam of his eye.
00:53:47.000
That's why people are always fascinated by survival stories.
00:53:51.000
Like that part where he beat him so much to where he ended up just being like a pet.
00:54:01.000
After a while, you mold them to what you want them to be.
00:54:06.000
That's why that movie or that show was so interesting.
00:54:21.000
Do you ever think of stand-up as mass hypnosis?
00:54:32.000
You have to put people under hypnosis when you do it.
00:54:35.000
That's why, in most comedy clubs, the bar is outside of it, because it takes away the attention and all that.
00:54:46.000
It feels like hypnosis when you're in the groove.
00:54:48.000
It is like that because, and that's why you hate when somebody talks or, because it throws you out of the hypnosis.
00:55:02.000
You see people, you see them turn their head away.
00:55:07.000
It's an art and it takes time, but it's hard now because people don't care about art no more.
00:55:14.000
Like that dude who paid $120,000 for a banana taped to the wall.
00:55:26.000
I don't talk about shit that I don't want to promote.
00:55:32.000
Some other guy pulled it off the wall and ate it.
00:55:42.000
Because now that promotes another person to do it.
00:55:47.000
That's why I try to watch what I push, because I know how stupid people are.
00:55:55.000
Let me put a naked woman there on tape on the wall and eat her.
00:56:22.000
If you hate that banana, you'll hate that place.
00:56:25.000
This fucking L.A. County Museum of Art is one of the weird...
00:56:30.000
And then some of it is like, there's one of them that was a plexiglass box that was on the ground.
00:56:44.000
And it's like, well, the artist wants you to interpret whatever's in that box as the art.
00:56:52.000
I interpret this mine and I would have walked off with it.
00:57:08.000
No, there's a guy named TGT Studios and he makes these dope clocks.
00:57:15.000
Man, I want everything you got in this motherfucker.
00:57:27.000
I envy people that just can do what the fuck they want, how they want.
00:57:34.000
Because I have to think about what I do because I have to think about the people under me.
00:57:44.000
But how does that stop you from buying a clock?
00:57:47.000
I'm talking about being able to do what the fuck you want.
00:57:53.000
Just like, man, you can tell he really do what the fuck he want.
00:58:55.000
When people tell me how it got them through what they're doing.
00:59:08.000
Even as a comedian, as an entertainer, see people just enjoying it.
00:59:12.000
And enjoying it for the right way and what you put it out there for.
00:59:16.000
You know, you're like, damn, this shit working.
00:59:22.000
The best part is, well, for me is like, I really do what I do for other people because I done got everything I wanted.
00:59:31.000
You know, it's like now, all my agenda is for the betterment of other people as a whole.
00:59:44.000
My ultimate goal is to have a little bit of little Duvall in everybody.
00:59:49.000
Because I feel like if everybody act like me, the world would be perfect.
01:00:11.000
The best thing we can do in life is just be the change you want to see.
01:00:18.000
So you have to give more examples of that move in the movement that you want others to move.
01:00:31.000
So if you're trying to change, that's how you change it.
01:00:52.000
You can see that in all black screen, white letters.
01:01:16.000
Did he say that some crazy amount of THC? It's like 40-something percent THC. I need some more of that.
01:01:29.000
All of a sudden, he went from never getting high to getting high all day, every day.
01:01:38.000
Like, I need it at this point just to pass through life.
01:01:55.000
It was this one time I just like, that shit, whatever it was, I was like, nah, I can't keep doing this.
01:02:06.000
Sometimes, too, when you're traveling, you're already a little fucked up in the head.
01:02:12.000
Plane rides, getting up early, not enough sleep, that kind of shit.
01:02:24.000
That's why I just bought a plane and learned as I go.
01:02:28.000
I got a Baron 50 and a Baron 55 and a Cessna 421. And you're learning how to fly them.
01:02:38.000
I know how to take off land and do all that, but as far as really paying attention, that's where it's hard for me.
01:02:46.000
I'm still trying to learn to pay attention and learn what's what and knowing when shit out.
01:02:54.000
Because the motherfuckers do break you and I wouldn't have known if my pilot wasn't there.
01:03:08.000
Every time I land, there's something on that motherfucker.
01:03:11.000
Yeah, but I'm blessed the way I can afford to do it, and it pays for itself kind of in what we do.
01:03:20.000
And I like the fact that I like getting more people like me into it, you know what I mean?
01:03:26.000
Because I think a lot of black people need to get into it more so because this shit been going on for a long time.
01:03:31.000
And for it to be going on so long and we're not into it as much, we should.
01:03:42.000
I mean, you got a three-dimensional road in the sky.
01:03:46.000
But you don't know that, though, until you do it.
01:04:07.000
I think they've got Continental engines in them.
01:04:09.000
So those are supposedly the best if something goes wrong, because you can still kind of land them.
01:04:14.000
Yeah, they say it's always best to have two engines, because my first plane I bought had one.
01:04:22.000
And that would be cool, too, because there's a lot of land to land on Earth.
01:04:28.000
And he was like, you don't want to be over that water with just one engine.
01:04:41.000
I got pictures of that showing with the plane flying with one engine plane.
01:04:52.000
So right when you started flying, you just went ahead and bought a plane?
01:04:56.000
Right when I bought a plane, that's when I... Because that was my way of getting into it.
01:05:34.000
And this old one is the one that had one propeller.
01:05:53.000
It is kind of amazing how few people learn how to fly.
01:06:17.000
If that bitch cut off while you're taking off, you're going to crash.
01:06:23.000
So you want to watch your weight and all that shit there and make sure the engine's running.
01:06:45.000
My first plane, as soon as I bought it, as soon as it landed, that bitch cut off.
01:07:00.000
I'd rather an old one than these new, because the new ones are still trial and error, and they're crashing and all that shit there.
01:07:08.000
Yeah, it's like those are still using new technology.
01:07:11.000
You want some shit that's been there for like 30 years.
01:07:17.000
Yeah, most of them Gulf Streams, unless you get the new ones.
01:07:25.000
But they're still nice and they're still good if you keep them up.
01:07:29.000
I keep my plane up better than most of these commercial planes.
01:07:36.000
That motherfucker sounded like the transmission was slipping.
01:07:39.000
I do not want to hear irregular noises on a plane.
01:07:53.000
He took me all around Malibu right after the fires.
01:07:56.000
You get to see everything that was just devastated.
01:08:00.000
That was one thing about here that humbled people up, let them know that nature's real is the forest fires.
01:08:05.000
The wildfires were out of control here last year.
01:08:10.000
I think we need to be humble as a country as a whole, honestly.
01:08:13.000
I don't want to prey on it for us, but we need something to humble us towards more so life than money.
01:08:42.000
I was in St. Louis and I got stuck in St. Louis.
01:08:52.000
But that changed the way everybody was for a little bit.
01:08:55.000
Yeah, it made you realize nothing else matters.
01:09:04.000
People are happier when they've survived something rough.
01:09:09.000
It lets you understand what matters and what don't matter.
01:09:19.000
And when we get out of control, we're like spoiled brats.
01:09:25.000
I mean, you're always going to have corruption and stuff like that there.
01:09:28.000
But for the most part, they get it more than we do.
01:09:37.000
Island people, Hawaiians, Hawaiians are like that.
01:09:44.000
We don't got too detached from nature in there.
01:10:14.000
That's why I try to practice now and prepare myself.
01:10:23.000
I don't want to be culture shocked when the shit, like the lights go out.
01:10:29.000
Then like 20 minutes later, you're like, alright.
01:10:37.000
Like even on the island, the shit, last time I was there, all electricity, they cut that shit off for like three, four hours just cause.
01:10:46.000
They say they fixing shit, but they don't be fixing shit.
01:10:50.000
There was a big lawsuit about brownouts in California.
01:10:57.000
Wasn't it part of like a negotiation or something?
01:11:00.000
I'm trying to figure out what it was, but it was criminal.
01:11:04.000
Well, see, I just use it as a way of, all right, this guy we're showing me, all right, let's see what you can do without this.
01:11:10.000
You know, it's kind of my way, all right, I can't use the phone.
01:11:31.000
Because camping is like, hey, this is what it's like.
01:11:34.000
This is what it's like if you live outside in your little cloth house.
01:11:38.000
Man, if you go outside and leave your phone for about 30 minutes or an hour, the grass start looking greener.
01:11:45.000
It's like you start really seeing shit, you know?
01:11:49.000
And maybe it'd be the shrooms or something, but everything's enhanced when you put that down for a little bit.
01:12:13.000
You just want to find out what's going on in the world.
01:12:21.000
Because you can use it for good to put it back out.
01:12:34.000
You could listen to this while you're in nature.
01:12:51.000
But that's an amazing transition between no weed and four years later, full blown, all in.
01:12:58.000
I went the same way in the beginning, but for me it's been more.
01:13:08.000
And then as soon as I did it, I was like, oh, I can't believe I was missing out on this.
01:13:26.000
That's when you realize, oh, this is what they're trying to imitate.
01:13:33.000
They're trying to get to this crazy place where you're interacting.
01:13:35.000
But I don't like to promote it, though, because it ain't for everybody.
01:13:44.000
There's five guys out there that shouldn't do it.
01:13:48.000
But then, people with schizophrenia can become a real issue.
01:13:51.000
Yeah, if you're not at peace, then you gotta really understand when you see things, because sometimes you don't come back.
01:14:14.000
Some people don't come back and, you know, famously...
01:14:20.000
I mean, I... I don't fuck with nothing that people die from.
01:14:25.000
You know, I don't fuck with nothing that I can't see came from nature.
01:14:33.000
That's a good call for everybody just as a general rule.
01:14:36.000
Don't fuck with anything that doesn't just come out of the ground that's natural.
01:14:40.000
Especially when something like weed or mushrooms that has thousands of years of use.
01:14:47.000
Weed, you realize there's something for everything.
01:14:50.000
Any other drug you get, they got a strain or something that'll give you that same stimulant.
01:15:00.000
Man, that's the only time I feel like I eat bad.
01:15:09.000
It's even hard to explain because this is like, this shit is fucking amazing.
01:15:14.000
What's amazing is that it's been around for so long and it's still illegal.
01:15:23.000
I think Colorado did something to decriminalize it, but Oakland famously recently decriminalized everything.
01:15:32.000
Ayahuasca is the edible form of DMT. It's a drink that they take.
01:15:44.000
It's not similar to mushrooms in that it's obviously a different thing, but it can be insanely potent from what they say.
01:15:58.000
I've done the synthetic form of it, which is DMT. I haven't done the ayahuasca, which is the edible form of it.
01:16:03.000
The edible form of it is supposed to be more mild but lasts longer.
01:16:21.000
I mean, there's someone who died recently from it.
01:16:26.000
I'm still probably at level two or three with shrooms.
01:16:34.000
The most I've taken, and this was by mistake, like four grams because I missed and put the scale on.
01:17:37.000
I like it, but I only do it like once a month because I can't go through that emotional rollercoaster so much.
01:17:47.000
It's like, all right, I don't want to do it no more.
01:17:49.000
But I can do it like once a month, maybe two grams.
01:17:56.000
I fucked on it one time, but I ain't do that much.
01:17:59.000
I can fuck on it when it's just a little bit, but when it's a lot, I can't.
01:18:15.000
You know, there's a lot of people that think that's the origins of religion.
01:18:28.000
In some kind of way, the stars and all this shit connect.
01:18:34.000
I wish I knew enough about real astrology to make fun of it.
01:18:37.000
But every time I start talking shit about astrology, I'm like, I don't really know that much about it.
01:18:53.000
Like, there's so many weird factors that they're taking into account.
01:18:57.000
The moon is in this, and the Mars is in retrograde, and Venus is in that.
01:19:07.000
Like I was saying earlier, I believe we are more of our nature than we are what we think we are.
01:19:18.000
I'm trying to think how to articulate it, because...
01:19:22.000
That's why I went back and watched Illicella again, because it's kind of like that.
01:19:28.000
Like, say for instance, a dog, before shit, it turns around like that just natural.
01:19:36.000
Like, we do certain things natural that we don't even know we do.
01:19:39.000
But if you understand the connections of that, you can kind of use it to your favor and change everything.
01:19:52.000
I ain't figured out how to use it as my superpower yet.
01:19:58.000
You know how people could take numbers and they say numbers do shit in the world or certain things.
01:20:13.000
Even the social media, I kind of do it, just let nature take its course and do certain things in life.
01:20:22.000
I plant the seed and let it grow, you know, and it kind of does what it do.
01:20:28.000
So in the same sense in life, I don't know, I got to figure it out a little more.
01:20:40.000
I think women are more powerful with it than we are.
01:20:46.000
Like, if they knew how to control that shit, they'd be like Gene on X-Men.
01:21:03.000
I Ching is an ancient Chinese method of divination.
01:21:08.000
And I think you would ask it questions and throw these stones.
01:21:15.000
And they have different marks on them and they read these marks and it's supposed to predict things.
01:21:22.000
It's been around for thousands of years and it's really complicated.
01:21:33.000
This is very visual, so for those that are listening, it's going to be tough.
01:21:38.000
When you throw the three coins, you get a number.
01:21:41.000
That number then correlates to this chart, and then...
01:21:45.000
You get this symbol, and I'm going to imagine then you take that symbol, and then it equals one of these things.
01:21:52.000
Wind, heaven, lake, fire, thunder, earth, mountain, water.
01:22:01.000
Like, say, for instance, if I knew the charts, then I could know when to be at a certain place at a certain time to get a certain type of energy that I want.
01:22:14.000
I can't explain it, but I'm still trying to learn.
01:22:19.000
Well, there was a guy named Terence McKenna, and he was this very famous psychedelic philosopher dude, and he studied the I Ching for a long time.
01:22:27.000
And he had some really wacky ideas, but one of them was that he thought the I Ching was a map of time.
01:22:41.000
The reason why it's so effective is somehow or another through these things and viewing these things, you're actually having some sort of an impact.
01:22:50.000
Sounds like total nonsense, like hippie bullshit.
01:23:00.000
You know how 20 years ago, the stuff that you know now, it was still the same shit, but you didn't have a clue about it?
01:23:10.000
I'm trying to think how to explain it in layman's terms.
01:23:15.000
Back in the day, we used to wear baggy clothes.
01:23:21.000
Now that I look back, I'm like, this shit looks stupid than the motherfucker.
01:23:27.000
I had on what I had on, but I was blind than the motherfucker.
01:23:35.000
But I'm saying, yeah, even in bell bottoms, now you look back and you're like, what the fuck did I have on?
01:23:39.000
But in your mind, so what I'm saying is, in our minds, we really are really blind.
01:23:54.000
So, and I said it to say, because when you said we just ain't figured out the methods that you say that we're, we ain't figured it out yet.
01:24:10.000
The car had all them different components to it.
01:24:16.000
We could have skipped all that if we would have just had our minds right where it's at now.
01:24:27.000
You know, the shit sounds so far-fetched, but now it's like that shit probably could happen.
01:24:32.000
I think it's going to happen, but I think it might not be really happening when it happens.
01:24:36.000
I think we might get locked into some sort of digital realm.
01:24:42.000
We've all become in digital so we can go somewhere else.
01:25:02.000
There was a guy named Marshall McLuhan and he said, human beings are the sex organs of the machine world.
01:25:13.000
It's like we really think we're important, but we're really just a step in between another step.
01:25:21.000
He calls us the organic bootloader for artificial intelligence.
01:25:25.000
What he thinks is that we are here to sort of give birth to artificial intelligence, and it's going to take over from there, and it'll be the new life form.
01:25:34.000
I wonder if that's on the way and the gods are looking down on us like, these dummies are worried about global warming.
01:25:40.000
They've got about 10 more years of people left.
01:25:43.000
Somebody from another planet watching us as a show is like, look at them.
01:25:50.000
Oh, they looking at this world like, oh, they finally figured out how to get to the Mars.
01:26:03.000
And it's all about the Comanches and the United States fight against the Comanche and how long it went down.
01:26:08.000
And then at the end of it, by the end, they had defeated the Plains tribes.
01:26:12.000
You just get this horrible feeling of how all these people got wiped out.
01:26:16.000
Their way of life they had for, who knows, a thousand, two thousand years is now gone completely.
01:26:34.000
So, I mean, this happened in, what's the story in the Bible?
01:26:41.000
The one where they, Sodom and Gomorrah, when they cleared the whole place, because they saw there was like Babylon, it was fucked up.
01:26:54.000
It was so fucked up over there that God just washed the whole place up.
01:27:05.000
And they're walking away and he said, don't look back and wanted somebody to look back and he bombed the place and it's over.
01:27:14.000
I mean, but it's something probably like that happened.
01:27:31.000
I think it's more just as a whole just how everything evolves into, you know, you put something there and see where it rolls.
01:27:45.000
That's why I say you really can't predict because...
01:27:53.000
Especially at this moment, like at the shift we are as far as in the big picture, we had a shuffle, like at the beginning of the century of the 1900s.
01:28:03.000
I think we're one or two big inventions away from being unrecognizable.
01:28:08.000
One or two big ones in maybe 10, 20 years, and things could be unrecognizable.
01:28:17.000
I think all we have to do is get to a point where there really is an artificial intelligence and it can make choices and it can think for itself.
01:28:30.000
But autonomous artificial intelligence that can move around.
01:28:34.000
Like something that's built like a person or a dog and can move around and run the world.
01:28:38.000
I went to this expo in Japan and I saw something damn near like it.
01:28:45.000
I think for real artificial intelligence, I think they need more time.
01:28:55.000
That's just like, man, this shit been going on.
01:28:58.000
Like, I didn't realize until I started flying planes.
01:29:00.000
Like, all that navigation shit was there 50 years ago.
01:29:05.000
Yeah, the satellites, all the stuff we're getting on GPS now.
01:29:29.000
Started by the U.S. Department of Defense in 1973, the first prototype spacecraft launched in 1978. The full constellation of 24 satellites operational in 93. You got to think, they had FaceTime on the moon.
01:29:50.000
Yeah, there's probably some shit we don't know about.
01:29:53.000
They got people morphing into animals around this bitch.
01:30:07.000
Did you hear the shit that they announced that China had created human-pig hybrids or monkey-pig?
01:30:31.000
One day, they're going to have an artificial body.
01:30:34.000
There's going to be a company that's going to have an artificial body that works perfectly.
01:30:38.000
And they can guarantee that you can take your brain out of that artificial body and put it in this new perfect body.
01:30:49.000
You get an extra 150 years with this artificial body.
01:31:01.000
There's like a parable about that, about some guy who lives the hundreds of years, but he has to kill his kids in order to do it.
01:31:08.000
I think True Blood was kind of like that too, that movie.
01:31:10.000
When the motherfucker was the vampires, he got tired of living.
01:31:15.000
Could you imagine seeing people complain about the same things for hundreds and hundreds of years?
01:31:28.000
Because you go through the same shit every 20 years.
01:31:34.000
People that's 90 years old are tired of hearing this shit.
01:31:36.000
People 80 years old, you just laugh at the young people going through their shit.
01:31:54.000
But the whole idea is that part of it is that this...
01:31:56.000
These vampires have been around for hundreds of years and they're starting to get sick of it.
01:32:15.000
When you're that old, you're the only one around.
01:32:20.000
Your kids don't want to come over there to take pics, photo ops.
01:32:28.000
She passed out in the garage and stayed there because she thought she was dead.
01:32:33.000
And then she realized she wasn't, got up and walked away right back in the house.
01:32:45.000
Even if you don't believe in God, you would want something after this.
01:32:47.000
You'd be like, it's got to be something after this shit.
01:32:50.000
You would want to think something after this because this is boring at the end.
01:32:58.000
Some people think that for sure nothing happens.
01:33:02.000
And that to me is just as dumb as thinking for sure something happens.
01:33:23.000
When you see a dead person, it seems like something's gone.
01:33:26.000
I swear to God, when one of my best friends, a comedian that passed, died, that's when I was like, oh no, this has got to be a god or something, because I saw it.
01:33:39.000
When I was in the room with him, right on his deathbed, I saw it.
01:33:43.000
You could just see, and you could see that they see it, because he really, at the time, he asked me to play Smile Bitch for him, and I played it for him, and after that, he tried to pull the thing out of his mouth.
01:33:56.000
And the funny thing about it, I didn't think it was like, I didn't see it as no suicide thing.
01:34:01.000
It was just like, you could see that he saw, alright, next level.
01:34:07.000
So, I didn't let him do it because I didn't want to see it.
01:34:12.000
Pulled him down and told his sister to come in.
01:34:15.000
But, it's just, you really see it then when you're in there and you see life and see where it ends and It's not a bad thing.
01:34:35.000
You know what someone said once in one of the...
01:34:40.000
One of the Gracie fathers talked about this too.
01:34:43.000
Said he believed and he lived his life, Elio Gracie, lived his life like you have to get everything perfect.
01:35:11.000
And if it's right, I mean, maybe that's what you are.
01:35:14.000
Even if it ain't right, you should think that way.
01:35:17.000
Because if you thought that way, if you thought you'd come back looking like an ant, you ain't finna be doing too much crazy shit.
01:35:25.000
You're gonna do right by people in the best way you can.
01:35:28.000
Well, that always makes me think, like, someone like you, like, how many times have you done this ride?
01:35:34.000
Like, maybe some people just, maybe the dumbest people amongst us are just, they're just new on the ride.
01:35:41.000
That's the best way to articulate it, because it's like, to me, my whole life, I feel like, this shit is so simple, but to everybody else, it's so complicated.
01:35:53.000
Maybe you've been on this ride like a thousand times.
01:35:59.000
How many times do you think you've been on this bitch?
01:36:08.000
It doesn't make any sense that you and I are making noises with our mouth, and we both know what we're saying.
01:36:15.000
We just met, having a great time, smoking weed together, talking shit.
01:36:21.000
So if life this way, this way that we live, which is really interesting, if this goes on forever, like I enjoy life, and I know you do, right?
01:36:31.000
But if you told me it was going to go on forever, I'd go, fuck, like this just goes on forever and ever.
01:36:39.000
So just don't say nothing and just let the spirit.
01:36:41.000
But if it happens again and again and again and again and again and again throughout eternity, if that's what life is, if you just live this life over and over again, why would that be scary?
01:36:51.000
It'd be scary because maybe I enjoy this life, but I want to think that there's something better.
01:36:57.000
But if it's just this life, over and over and over again until I get it right, why is that scarier than doing it once?
01:37:06.000
Like once, like right now, I'm having a great time.
01:37:14.000
But if I knew that it was going to happen over and over and over again forever, I'd probably freak the fuck out.
01:37:37.000
I asked for, I thought it would happen, but it happens in certain...
01:37:47.000
That's why I think we're more spirit than we are anything else, because where I'm from or where you're from, we would have never met.
01:37:55.000
But even we just come in here, we can vibe and...
01:38:03.000
This shit's supposed to be here at this time, at this moment.
01:38:16.000
But it's a process in the spirit that's using us at this moment to get whatever they're getting out of it and then go somewhere else.
01:38:27.000
I've thought about this before, too, because I've thought that ideas...
01:38:39.000
But I think in an idea in general, it might be a type of life form.
01:39:14.000
At the end of the day, I do feel like it's bigger than us.
01:39:20.000
It's about whatever this spirit is going to take to something else.
01:39:27.000
Well, one of the things that I think is great about cool conversations...
01:39:31.000
Cool conversations like this that we could get and put on the internet, it's a fun conversation and it makes people want to have more cool, fun conversations.
01:39:41.000
I think that talking in a lot of ways is like an art form.
01:39:46.000
People can talk and it's annoying, but it's their expressing.
01:39:49.000
It's their self-expression, even if it's just regular communication, where some people can talk, they can tell you anything.
01:39:55.000
And their voice is so cool, you want to hear them talk about everything.
01:39:58.000
But I don't think I talk that good when it comes to shit.
01:40:10.000
People want to hear a guy talk like you that's just talking the way you talk rather than someone who's talking like a newscaster or a morning radio personality.
01:40:18.000
But I think people need more to see how people move by actions.
01:40:26.000
A preacher could talk you out of all your money if he know how to talk.
01:40:34.000
I'd rather person judge me off my actions more than my words.
01:40:38.000
Because my words might offend you, you might get pissed off, but...
01:40:45.000
None of my actions are going to show a flaw in it.
01:40:57.000
But for the most part, genuinely, I'm always moving in the way to where...
01:41:04.000
I'm just moving in the way of the good way in the space of...
01:41:16.000
But the thing that I was getting at in a way is that both those things are important.
01:41:22.000
Because the way you talk, it affects young people in particular.
01:41:26.000
I'm listening to you philosophize on things and just relax the pros.
01:41:29.000
If I can't control, what the fuck am I worrying about it?
01:41:32.000
And that is a message that a lot of kids could use.
01:41:35.000
You know, somebody just said on my Instagram today, they said I'm like the Robin Hood of knowledge for the hood.
01:41:48.000
I feel like I'm able to articulate it for people like me to get it.
01:41:56.000
And also, there's nothing about you while you're trying to talk where it's contrived.
01:42:05.000
There's nothing about the way you talk that's contrived.
01:42:12.000
When you're talking to someone and they're doing the morning news guy voice, you don't even know who the fuck that guy is.
01:42:19.000
There's a style of talk that they make them do if they want to tell the news in the morning.
01:42:23.000
But you don't have goddamn clues to who that guy is.
01:42:25.000
When you talk about something, you have zero of that.
01:42:41.000
I think that comes from where I ain't had no choice but to be myself.
01:43:14.000
Yeah, it's definitely easy to be genuine, but it's hilarious that you tried to be fake.
01:43:23.000
Like, just trying to go in a room and do the industry talk shit and act like I care.
01:43:41.000
The only reason I want to be famous is just to be with the people.
01:43:43.000
I never gave a fuck about the industry part of it.
01:43:48.000
I... Maybe because I've been doing it a long time now in my world.
01:43:57.000
You know, it's like fucking a bitch a thousand times.
01:44:19.000
And the funny thing about it is I recently found out Harriet Tubman is my aunt blowing up for real.
01:44:50.000
I'm saying I got the statue in here in my brain.
01:45:01.000
Did that change at all when you started smoking weed?
01:45:06.000
That's where my name comes from, just representing Jacksonville, Duval.
01:45:09.000
I've always did that so whenever I can't rep it, it's in my name.
01:45:13.000
So it's kind of like psychologically for a person that's not from there, it makes them see something because you are what you see.
01:45:23.000
To elevate the people from where you came from?
01:45:31.000
Yeah, because the sentiment behind it, that's one of the best names I've ever heard.
01:45:41.000
I mean, I've always knew I was, like, even where I grew up, I always knew, like, I ain't supposed to be here.
01:45:53.000
But then I was like, maybe God put me here to see this shit.
01:45:58.000
To get out and tell everybody that you can get out too.
01:46:01.000
Not just to be an example, you know, because I mean, I think the world is going to evolve how it's going to evolve, but I don't want the people from where I'm from to get left behind too.
01:46:10.000
So it's just like, alright, let me show y'all what's going on so you can get a chance to be in the same situation.
01:46:25.000
That's a great name and a great reason for a name, man.
01:46:29.000
So, the Harriet Tubman thing just made me realize, like, damn, that's why maybe I'm like this.
01:46:34.000
It just all goes back to the nature thing we were saying.
01:46:44.000
I mean, who knows where personality traits like that do come from, besides learning from the people around me?
01:46:50.000
That's not even like my blood grandfather, because I grew up with three granddaddies, and I didn't realize that wasn't normal until I got older.
01:46:56.000
But he was always in the community in Jacksonville, so I think I get a lot of that from watching him growing up.
01:47:05.000
Yeah, if he's a mentor figure and you saw the benefit that he got out of it.
01:47:16.000
I mean, you are what you see, and that's just the way I've moved from around older people.
01:47:21.000
Like, I've always been around older people, and then I think older people, people that was raised by older people, they end up being all right, because older people teach you the right values in life.
01:47:45.000
You know, the shit in the brain has got to remember, like, hold on, let me think about it.
01:47:52.000
This is the slowest I've ever seen a photo come up.
01:48:12.000
Well, that's the monument in Bristol, Pennsylvania or some shit like that.
01:48:19.000
And is it just her living, surviving relatives on the monument?
01:48:31.000
That's all my mama, my sister, my nephew, all of us on the...
01:48:50.000
I wonder how much of that actually gets in your genes.
01:48:56.000
The next athlete be better and better and better.
01:49:11.000
Like if we are both living the same life over and over and over again, we've probably done this a couple times.
01:49:24.000
There's people that you run into in your life where you do feel like they're supposed to be in your life.
01:49:29.000
Like there's people that you run into like this person is me, I'm them, we're family.
01:49:36.000
I got friends, long-term friends for 25, almost 30 years that are family.
01:49:46.000
You get to that point with certain people where you know them and you love them so well.
01:49:55.000
You think that's because over 50 it makes you feel like, alright, I gotta keep the friends I get close by?
01:50:07.000
I know I'm 52. Are you worried about being alone?
01:50:13.000
But right now, what I'm worried about more than anything is just keeping my health.
01:50:17.000
You know, just make sure I exercise and eat correctly and take a lot of supplements and make sure I keep my health.
01:50:30.000
You can get hit by a car tomorrow and be in the best shape of your life.
01:50:33.000
You can look like Ronnie Coleman when he won Mr. Olympia.
01:50:44.000
I mean, even if you're pushing 114, if you're dead at 112 or 114, you're not going to fucking care.
01:50:52.000
Yeah, but I mean, like, just most of the people I see that's older...
01:50:59.000
That's genuinely happy and moving and healthy looking, they're happy.
01:51:03.000
Those would be the moving ones, they'd be happy.
01:51:24.000
They don't have a problem when they can't move around.
01:51:26.000
When you get too old, your body starts to fall apart.
01:51:28.000
One of the biggest problems is you can't get around.
01:51:42.000
If we didn't do that much movement, we could live longer.
01:51:46.000
I don't think that's how it works, but I do think it has an impact, a slight impact.
01:51:54.000
I mean, because it's like we're using, it's like a car engine, you keep running it hard, it's going, no matter how much it's helping, it's going to hurt it more than it's helping.
01:52:04.000
There's a statistic about professional athletes not living to over 100 and how many professional athletes die before they reach 100 versus regular people.
01:52:15.000
Too much distance between their heart and their body.
01:52:31.000
What's the oldest a professional athlete has lived?
01:52:38.000
They've been around for a hundred years, right?
01:52:47.000
He's the oldest tall motherfucker I've ever seen live.
01:53:00.000
98, 97, 97, 96. A couple 90-plus-year-olds that were playing football.
01:53:10.000
When they played football in the 20s, they had those bullshit helmets.
01:53:12.000
You couldn't just clash into each other like today.
01:53:15.000
But see, when you're little, you don't have to worry about all that.
01:53:32.000
Nah, there ain't too many big old motherfuckers.
01:53:37.000
B.B. King might have been one of the last ones.
01:53:56.000
I don't even get into, like, when people die to age, because we all...
01:54:03.000
I don't really know if it's too soon or too late, because at the end of the day, it's still all, like, 100 years in the mix of 100 years.
01:54:24.000
The big one you can't change is your own fragility.
01:54:33.000
No, that's from Russell Bilt, the dude on Instagram who makes dope custom metal clocks.
01:54:47.000
I don't want to be accepting stuff like that because people want stuff back.
01:54:54.000
If you're going to give it to me, give it to me for me.
01:55:01.000
I don't want to say missed out, but a lot of money I turned down just because I don't do that type of shit like that.
01:55:10.000
But I've had people send me things and then send me a script.
01:55:25.000
They're just trying to get something from you to help their business.
01:55:30.000
Especially me, I do shit really from the heart, and I do it because I want to do it.
01:55:36.000
So when people don't have that same type of mindset, I don't want to help them.
01:55:41.000
You can get it how you want to get it, but I just don't feel it because you're not good for the ecosystem.
01:55:50.000
If you're around people that have that negative mentality, it's a drain.
01:56:13.000
It's two people that I put up that I think the funniest people.
01:56:19.000
And I ain't just saying it because they're my friends.
01:56:21.000
They are my friends and I might be biased, but I still would put them up against anybody.
01:56:39.000
And that's one of the artists that's kind of dying, you know what I'm saying?
01:56:46.000
I envy him how he do it, because I'm more into entertaining and doing stand-up and doing everything else.
01:56:53.000
But just straight-core stand-up, I like that shit.
01:56:57.000
Sometimes I have to reel him back, though, because he will go too far.
01:57:01.000
You know, he's like on that borderline of crazy and genius.
01:57:11.000
You know, if you want to make some good comedy, you gotta take some risks.
01:57:14.000
It's interesting for me to see people like him that have a great work ethic.
01:57:18.000
He's a brilliant guy in terms of how he's putting things out there and editing things and strategizing and doing shows in Russia.
01:57:34.000
Once he understood, you don't need Hollywood no more.
01:57:39.000
Especially in our generation, they're stuck in the mindset of thinking, That is Hollywood, but that don't really exist in this day and age like that.
01:57:49.000
Not as much as impact on the culture like it used to.
01:57:53.000
It has an impact, but it's not the only impact.
01:58:05.000
You can do your own thing, so you don't really have to Just use that route.
01:58:09.000
And once he understood that, he took it and ran with it.
01:58:14.000
It actually tips the other way because you need to use the internet no matter who you are.
01:58:22.000
Yeah, if you're a motion picture company trying to promote a movie, you got to use the internet.
01:58:27.000
Now you're the network and they got to come to you for the brands and the ads and shit like that to...
01:58:39.000
You're really the new Janet Carson around this motherfucker.
01:58:43.000
Shit, being on this shit, from the way people have been saying shit, they've been like, man, you gotta get on that show.
01:58:58.000
I just see it as he doing his thing, he got his lane, he winning.
01:59:02.000
I don't be seeing the big, big picture of it and the way people seeing it.
01:59:06.000
And I'm like, this motherfucker got a goddamn cult following around this motherfucker.
01:59:16.000
And Shels was like, man, y'all damn near the same person.
01:59:21.000
I'm like, man, motherfucker don't know shit about me, man.
02:00:00.000
Do you ever use Speedweed in L.A.? It's a weed delivery service from my friend Gino.
02:00:13.000
He gives us this giant wooden box filled with weed, but we kind of drained it.
02:00:17.000
So they're filling it up so he has to come back.
02:00:20.000
Should have had him come back before you were here.
02:00:44.000
I think all that shit comes from the start of Hinduism.
02:01:00.000
But everybody can't live free because some of them motherfuckers are crazy.
02:01:05.000
The Hindu stuff, the ancient Hindu stuff is fascinating because they always talked about this shit called Soma and no one knows exactly what it was.
02:01:13.000
It seems like it was some sort of a psychedelic.
02:01:16.000
I don't think they've ever figured out what it is.
02:01:18.000
They think it might have been like mushrooms mixed with something else and they called it Soma.
02:01:22.000
They might have created some sort of a concoction.
02:01:25.000
They would do it and trip balls and figure things out.
02:01:31.000
It's probably real similar to what's happening when people are tripping today.
02:01:36.000
When you were saying that you took four grams, it's probably real similar.
02:01:40.000
That feeling's probably real similar throughout history.
02:01:42.000
People have figured out different ways to get it.
02:01:44.000
Man, when I was on that shit, I seen the $100 bill, the hologram on that bitch was up.
02:02:01.000
Imagine if that's how the cops find out if you're on mushrooms.
02:02:04.000
That's why I was like, whoever made the $100 bill, they was on shrooms.
02:02:17.000
Like, I just, only bad is maybe I wouldn't do it in front of people like that yet.
02:02:24.000
They did some studies on mushrooms and they found that it actually increases people's vision in low doses.
02:02:30.000
Like, if they have parallel lines, I forget what the study, who did the study, but the study was if you have these two parallel lines and one of them shifts ever so slightly offline, You would be able to detect it quicker when you're on psilocybin than when you're not.
02:02:43.000
So this is statistically proven with randomly selected people who are either on or not on.
02:02:50.000
And they ran this series of tests, and they found that the people were more effective at detecting whether or not the angle has changed.
02:02:58.000
You have a better view of reality when you're on mushrooms.
02:03:02.000
I'm going to start telling my homeboys that I act like I'm smart.
02:03:09.000
Well, they think it might have been one of the things that led to us evolving.
02:03:34.000
Not that it created vision, but that it improved vision.
02:03:37.000
And it was one of several things I think led to us evolving quicker.
02:03:42.000
One of them was that we started experimenting with different food sources.
02:03:46.000
We had more access to bugs and rats and all these little things that we could catch.
02:03:52.000
Then we started using tools to figure out how to hunt things.
02:03:55.000
And all during this process, we're eating weed and we're eating mushrooms.
02:03:58.000
So we're probably interacting with these psychedelic compounds that people have used for thousands and thousands of years when we were a primitive man.
02:04:07.000
We're trying to figure out new ways to hunt, new ways to protect ourselves from our enemies, new ways to farm.
02:04:14.000
I think there's a direct connection between psilocybin use and the ability to create words and language.
02:04:33.000
Like now that I'm thinking like so the shrooms, so really everything came from the shroom and the shroom kind of...
02:04:42.000
Yeah, the shroom used us and growing into us to...
02:04:58.000
If you have an idea like, hey, I'm going to invent this thing.
02:05:02.000
You just have some crazy idea that's supposed to fix things.
02:05:06.000
And then someone takes that and runs with it and improves something else.
02:05:10.000
Then someone takes that and improves something else.
02:05:15.000
Millions and millions and millions of people are doing this, and they're contributing to this, and they're all using ideas.
02:05:19.000
They have ideas, and they turn that idea into a physical form, and then every year they expect it to get better and better and better.
02:05:25.000
Nobody ever looks at a television and goes, 72 inches, it looks clear, let's just stop.
02:05:35.000
Like, it's constantly gearing towards improvement.
02:05:47.000
And along the way, there's a bunch of shit that fuels our desire...
02:05:52.000
To get those things and make these things happen, like lust, like materialism, like maybe what materialism where people worry about it being so empty, maybe what it is is a function of getting us to invest heavily in newer, better shit so that more things accelerate faster and faster.
02:06:10.000
And that these new inventions come at a faster and faster rate, because that's what we're constantly focused on, is newer, better shit.
02:06:19.000
And all the while, we're just dumping money into the birth of our successor.
02:06:29.000
We're evolved from the shrooms to the human, to the ideas, to the culture, to the different cultures interacting with each other, the resistance of these cultures interacting with each other.
02:06:47.000
I mean, no organism is having as much of a fucking good time as we.
02:07:21.000
I always wondered, like, that got to be the dumbest job to ever want.
02:07:34.000
Like I was saying, like scuba diving, by the time you get past 100 feet, it's just dark.
02:07:41.000
That's worse than being in jail in solitary confinement.
02:07:49.000
And there's no way you can't tell me, like, that solitary confinement by themselves.
02:07:54.000
That's just like on that movie I was seeing on, I mean, that show, For All Mankind.
02:08:01.000
They was going crazy because they had to wait for something to be fixed for them to sit up there.
02:08:05.000
So every two weeks they had to wait and they was watching the same show over and over.
02:08:36.000
If they were getting paid correctly, there'd be no money left for anybody else.
02:08:59.000
I'll be like, hell nah, I know when Joe said that shit.
02:09:06.000
Look, whoever is listening that's thinking about doing it, just go ahead and do it.
02:09:20.000
A fucking submarine filled with people for 30 days.
02:09:28.000
I don't even want to get on a cruise ship, man.
02:09:37.000
I like being in my own place like the island that I'm on.
02:09:53.000
And I know how powerful that ocean is, so I'm not playing with that.
02:09:59.000
It's also like the thing that's beautiful about you and your plane is you can go wherever the fuck you want.
02:10:22.000
Is that you're gliding across the top of this water and you're kind of in control of your destiny.
02:10:30.000
You can enjoy the, let's just drive along the coastline.
02:10:33.000
But if you're in a fucking cruise liner, you ain't doing none of that.
02:10:38.000
And you're And you're on there with a bunch of other people.
02:10:42.000
If I don't want to be bothered with somebody, I don't want to just sit in my room cooped up.
02:10:47.000
And every now and then people throw people overboard.
02:10:51.000
It's surprising how rarely it happens if people throw people overboard.
02:10:58.000
Back in the day they probably used to, but they probably got it to where you can't throw people off.
02:11:06.000
Because like in Vegas, they can't jump off no fucking building no more.
02:11:11.000
They ain't got balconies on them casinos, not in the regular hotel rooms.
02:11:24.000
Nearly 300 people since 2000 have gone overboard on cruise ships and ferries.
02:11:33.000
This was according to a professor in Canada, so I don't know if that's just Canada.
02:11:50.000
I've just heard that you got to be careful because they're not going to stop for you.
02:11:55.000
That's one I don't care about because I'm never doing it.
02:12:06.000
Yeah, Jamie, we might be getting sued now by the cruise lines.
02:12:11.000
There is absolutely no merit in anything young Jamie has said.
02:12:15.000
If you could see the amount of smoke in this room.
02:12:22.000
He said if someone fell overboard, they wouldn't even stop.
02:12:28.000
How many times do they get you after you fall overboard?
02:12:34.000
If you go overboard and they don't have some sort of a solution to try to go get you, that seems crazy.
02:12:47.000
Because the ships are very high, what I'm reading right here.
02:12:49.000
They do have a process to go get people if they fall.
02:12:52.000
I think they have smaller ships they can send out and go back and get you.
02:13:04.000
Falling off a cruise ship in the middle of the night.
02:13:09.000
I've been in plenty of countries where if you just want to drive off, you can.
02:13:13.000
So, I mean, if you don't value your life, shit, you can't put everybody else in upset.
02:13:20.000
I'm not going to be more upset about it than you are.
02:13:24.000
If that's what happened, if people just jump off, I understand what you're saying.
02:13:33.000
It's always like a husband's like, I don't know where she went.
02:13:47.000
They see him walking around the day before looking up for every security camera.
02:13:52.000
They got him on footage marking security cameras, trying to figure out where's the best place to throw overboard.
02:14:13.000
If it falls off of that, man, it's so hard to put back in place.
02:14:20.000
I thought it was like one of them that you touch it and the light touch.
02:14:23.000
No, there's some magnet that is making it float in the air, but when I tell you it has to be perfect, I mean, it is so hard to do.
02:14:46.000
Yeah, you could get lucky and do it right away, or you might be...
02:15:15.000
But I mean, if that's what happened, it's not your fault.
02:15:25.000
See, you Hollywood, so I thought you were Hollywood.
02:15:28.000
No, that's a guy named Shane Against the Machine.
02:15:33.000
I bought a couple of things from him, but this one is a real helmet from World War II and a real bayonet that they converted into a lamp.
02:15:43.000
Every time I look at it, I think about, like, somehow or another, this helmet from war from the 1940s is now a lamp in my studio.
02:16:05.000
It could be engineered diseases that wipe out half the fucking population.
02:16:11.000
Russia was working on a lot of that shit during the Cold War.
02:16:19.000
Diseases and artificially created diseases, that shit's terrifying.
02:16:28.000
They definitely did for a while during the Cold War.
02:16:32.000
I'm talking about anybody can make a disease, damn near now, if you, with technology and just learning off the internet, you can teach yourself how to do something.
02:16:42.000
You can, but we went to the Center for Disease Control once for this TV show that I was working at.
02:16:46.000
We talked to these guys that are working every day in these spacesuits with incredibly toxic viruses.
02:16:54.000
So we went back and we saw these labs and everything like that.
02:16:56.000
And we were asking them about engineered diseases.
02:17:15.000
That's why the flu shot doesn't always work correctly on everybody.
02:17:21.000
I have all the other shots, but I don't get a shot every year.
02:17:26.000
I just don't know if that's the best way to do it.
02:17:28.000
I think the body is made so perfect As long as you don't abuse it, abuse it.
02:17:51.000
When I get sick, I do use certain shit, but I don't like to rely on it.
02:17:59.000
I have never swallowed a pill before in my life.
02:18:05.000
Like when I get a headache, I have to take a BC powder.
02:18:12.000
Yeah, they make vitamins you can mix in your drinks.
02:18:15.000
I take a vitamin like them two-a-days or some shit like that.
02:18:24.000
Gummy bears make kids take CBD. Gummy bears are great.
02:18:36.000
I want to sell some CBD stuff, make my own brand of CBD gummy bears.
02:18:42.000
Because I used to give my man that had cancer that died, the one I was telling you about.
02:18:50.000
Well, people that have arthritis, it's a life changer.
02:18:54.000
Yeah, a lot of my friend Dave had these really locked up fingers.
02:18:58.000
He just couldn't bend them, couldn't straighten them out.
02:19:00.000
He started doing CBD and his hands just slowly but surely relaxed and now they were perfect.
02:19:05.000
I mean, that was something that was fucking with them for a while.
02:19:07.000
I don't know if it's because over time I haven't dated it, but like when I drive my old school car, the steering wheel is hard to hold.
02:19:18.000
And I wonder is that because over time by using the regular, by the steering wheel getting bigger, has my hand evolved to where it can't even do that no more?
02:19:31.000
What is your old school kind of steering wheel you got on it?
02:20:02.000
When I posted it on Instagram, we landed in Miami once.
02:20:12.000
So, I was in Miami, and this guy had, it was a really nice car, too, with these ridiculous, huge wagon wheels.
02:20:21.000
Mine got 20, I think these 24s, it might be 26s.
02:21:26.000
Well, I was born in New Jersey, but I grew up in Boston.
02:21:30.000
I lived out here for a little while when I was a kid in San Francisco.
02:21:33.000
I lived in Florida for a little while, in Gainesville.
02:21:43.000
Jamaica Plain, and then I lived in Newton, which is a suburb of Boston.
02:21:47.000
Then I moved to New York, and then out to here.
02:21:55.000
I've started- The Laughing Skull is a fucking great little club.
02:22:05.000
I don't even think it seats 100. I mean, I've heard of it, but I've never been over there.
02:22:29.000
I started at Uptown Comedy Corner in Atlanta in 99. I've been doing 20 years now.
02:22:58.000
It does in that it has been a long time, like a lot of times around the sun.
02:23:06.000
When I'm about to go up at the store, we're all hanging out and look at my phone, check out my new shit before I go up there.
02:23:13.000
I get more kick out of the crowd doing that than I do the stand-up part of it.
02:23:19.000
I mean, the socializing stand-up part with people.
02:23:41.000
But I ain't like the part, just the energy around that part of it.
02:23:51.000
We're real lucky in LA. Everyone's real friendly, real supportive.
02:24:02.000
It's never been a time in my career where I remember less bitchiness, less squabbling.
02:24:09.000
When you're dealing at the bottom, it's a lot more scrambling.
02:24:11.000
It's a lot more dog-eat-dog world, so people cut, do this, do that a little more.
02:24:24.000
And then I realized, these motherfuckers ain't shit.
02:24:32.000
You can get one of those these motherfuckers ain't shit guys deeply in your machine.
02:24:39.000
There's no way you're going to get around that.
02:24:47.000
Yeah, but you can get to a point where you can make your own ecosystem.
02:24:52.000
It's like, alright, you come in here if I won't lie with you.
02:24:54.000
You come in this if I see if you're genuine enough, you know?
02:25:01.000
And then if you can't, you do your thing over there.
02:25:05.000
The problem with those ecosystems is if you get somebody who's not doing their best and is annoying and doesn't want to change.
02:25:20.000
It's real unfortunate when you run into people like that, but they do exist.
02:25:38.000
Do you get a lot of people asking you to do shit?
02:25:55.000
Because I do stuff genuine out my heart too, for real.
02:25:59.000
So when people want me to do stuff, I do what I want to do.
02:26:04.000
And I know I do enough to where you can't make me feel bad for not doing that.
02:26:12.000
I wouldn't be where I'm at now if I wasn't doing right.
02:26:18.000
You get dudes who want to open up businesses with you and shit?
02:26:27.000
Whenever a person, like, especially when they want to do shows and shit, I'm trying to put something together.
02:26:33.000
When you hear that, you're like, you ain't gonna do it with me.
02:26:36.000
When you hear that word, I'm trying to put something together.
02:26:41.000
I'd really love to see if I could attach you to it.
02:26:53.000
There's always going to be those guys that try to glom on and...
02:26:56.000
And try to sell something, attaching you to it.
02:27:03.000
I don't mind you even trying me, but don't be mad at me for saying no.
02:27:08.000
In their eyes, it's the best project of all time.
02:27:13.000
Trust me, it's going to be for your own benefit if you come along on this.
02:27:18.000
If you mad at me for that, stop fucking with me.
02:27:33.000
Yeah, it's just important to find people that aren't like that.
02:27:37.000
People that are supportive, supporting each other.
02:27:39.000
Seeing your friends support your other friends.
02:27:45.000
That stuff's going to make you think about space.
02:27:51.000
I had to bring myself back because I didn't want to go too far left on the show.
02:27:58.000
Like this nigga Duval tripping there, you know?
02:28:05.000
In the Bahamas, they probably have very little light pollution, huh?
02:28:08.000
That's why I say it looks like you out of space.
02:28:20.000
When you're out there, you realize this is why people thought about out there more.
02:28:25.000
Because before technology at night, that shit probably was...
02:28:33.000
When you look up there, you be like, man, they up there.
02:28:53.000
I think that was the movie where they had another little space up there and they was up there chilling.
02:28:57.000
That was that movie where those aliens came down.
02:29:00.000
They're supposed to be having tourism up there now.
02:29:09.000
How the fuck would you be able to sleep when you're hovering over the earth?
02:29:18.000
That would be like the ultimate Instagram influencer big booty girl.
02:29:25.000
Sticking her ass out and behind her you see the earth.
02:29:34.000
This is NASA 2020. You can go to the ISS. She's going to be selling tummy tea.
02:29:42.000
I've been drinking this juice and look at my stomach.
02:29:50.000
The International Space Station, this article here on NBC said that there's plans to have people going there, not to stay there, but to go there next year, and then a hotel for four people by 2022. Whoa.
02:30:05.000
Who's going to be the first to fuck on that hotel?
02:30:32.000
Nah, I don't know if I'm going to make nut rings.
02:30:56.000
There's no way they was that bored up there and didn't start jacking off and just let that shit skeet off.
02:31:01.000
Well, I don't think they ever get a moment where they're not under camera.
02:31:07.000
If you've been up there for months, you think you're going to give a...
02:31:19.000
I guarantee you they done jacked off and let that shit...
02:31:26.000
I promise you, we gotta find a cool astronaut to tell us the truth.
02:32:03.000
You want to be the first motherfuckers out of space?
02:32:19.000
Russians probably drinking vodka and bone, and they probably have orgies up there.
02:32:24.000
They're in the EDM. Man, they've been fucking on the moon and everything.
02:32:33.000
Can you imagine you put one of those black lights?
02:32:47.000
Do you think we've ever been visited by aliens?
02:32:52.000
They come in here, come in there, see how stupid we are and go back and tell their stories and shit.
02:33:03.000
There's no way we're the only people in this whole universe.
02:33:08.000
There's no way this only happened one time in this one part.
02:33:12.000
So it's got to be somewhere else, and I'm pretty sure they're way ahead as far as technology and...
02:33:27.000
They gotta be, they gotta look at this as stupid.
02:33:30.000
If we could stay alive for a few thousand years, longer than we are now, I mean, imagine how much technology we would have by then.
02:33:36.000
And who knows what they've done, you know, whether, I mean, they might, they might have...
02:33:40.000
They might have created a technology based entirely on their atmosphere and their planet.
02:33:45.000
It might be just a different way of propulsion, a different way of organisms, a different way of everything.
02:33:58.000
I read something somewhere about the possibility of there being living creatures in other parts of the universe that are made out of light.
02:34:11.000
What are the parameters for something being alive given all the different possible environments in the universe?
02:34:17.000
All we know about life is what life we've ever discovered on Earth.
02:34:21.000
Maybe life can exist in bizarre, crazy environments, just a different kind of life.
02:34:31.000
Cocoon's like old people and then they got young.
02:34:32.000
Yeah, but the thing was, it came in that little cocoon In a spirit like a light.
02:34:43.000
I remember it was old people and they'd turn young and start fucking.
02:34:54.000
But if there is like other kinds of life forms out there, I mean, because it's just like a light.
02:35:06.000
Man, if we thought about it, they thought about this a long time ago, man.
02:35:42.000
You're heating up the sky and filling it with particulates.
02:36:05.000
So if that was 30 years ago, that means they've been new.
02:36:13.000
A physicist was speculating about the possibility of different forms.
02:36:22.000
That might be like what you said that theory was with the light.
02:36:28.000
Also, how hard would it be for aliens to make fake people to move amongst us?
02:36:36.000
Why can't they make fake people that can wander around?
02:36:41.000
How many people do you think you know that are aliens?
02:36:46.000
He don't give no fucks about humanity down here.
02:36:57.000
If you were president and they told you spaceships are coming, what the fuck do you tell people?
02:37:03.000
Nah, you get a droid like you and you be on that spaceship.
02:37:09.000
Let people do what they do and piss them off, let them get mad at each other and kill each other by being mad.
02:37:16.000
I think if aliens did show their face, if there was like a real bonafide alien invasion or at least alien landing, it would be real similar to how we change in terms of the way we look at ourselves and humanity, real similar to a natural disaster.
02:37:35.000
Like if a real spaceship landed and real aliens were on board the spaceship.
02:37:41.000
Motherfuckers will swear the government doing something.
02:37:53.000
Some people would definitely think it was fake.
02:37:56.000
It would be real hard to convince someone that it wasn't fake.
02:38:00.000
God could come down here and say, hey, it's me, it's God.
02:38:05.000
We don't believe nothing that we ain't really seen before.
02:38:14.000
Well, that's where the whole flat earth thing comes from, right?
02:38:22.000
It's like, if you really felt like that, why don't you just get in the boat and go to the inn?
02:38:30.000
Like, you would be the Christopher Columbus of this shit if you want to be so sure and tell everybody they wrong, get your ass in a boat and go to the end!
02:38:42.000
If you really feel that motherfucking smart, it's just stupid.
02:38:50.000
They dismiss all of the evidence that the earth is round, but yet they show no evidence that the earth is flat.
02:38:57.000
That's why I said, so prove me, whoever listened to this, get in the boat and just ride.
02:39:16.000
But the thing is, there's enough people out there in the world.
02:39:18.000
If you say that, there's someone like, you don't understand.
02:39:33.000
And I'm going to be up at Instagram headquarters so I can make sure this is really VIA at the edge.
02:39:49.000
Send me one good picture of what it looks like.
02:39:53.000
But you see, if you go further with this, they think that stars are fake.
02:39:57.000
They think that the sun is way closer than we've been told.
02:40:02.000
How do they explain the sun actually going from sun up to sun down curving like that?
02:40:20.000
There's going to be people who tell you that something's not real no matter what it is.
02:40:24.000
It doesn't matter if it's people, have water in their bodies.
02:40:28.000
Well, actually, there's no water in human bodies.
02:40:30.000
The water that you drink immediately evaporates through the surface of your skin at an incredible pace.
02:40:39.000
Instantaneously, the mist starts forming and you disappear.
02:40:43.000
There's someone out there that'll tell you that.
02:40:44.000
There's someone out there that'll tell you that human beings can live off of air.
02:40:47.000
There's dudes that think that their guru lives off air and he hasn't had food or water for years.
02:40:56.000
When you're bored, you start thinking the stupid shit and thinking you know what you're talking about because you done did it too.
02:41:05.000
And they might be on their first couple of rides.
02:41:08.000
It must be the first couple of times around as a person.
02:41:16.000
Yeah, I think you've been on a hundred at least.
02:41:20.000
If I've been on 100, you had to be on the same amount or even more than me.
02:41:24.000
Yeah, I think we've all been on this a bunch of times.
02:41:27.000
And I think if that's real, I mean, that would be a weird way of looking at things.
02:41:30.000
But see, you had to be a little more up because you're white.
02:41:37.000
So you might have been like, if I'm 100, I'm going to give you one up because in this generation in America, y'all got one up on us right now.
02:41:58.000
That's why I want to instill the humanity in before the money and all that.
02:42:05.000
We got to be careful of anything that separates people.
02:42:09.000
Any unnecessary thing that doesn't really mean anything that separates people.
02:42:54.000
Unless I'm telling a joke or something and I'm like, black man don't cheat.
02:43:06.000
Jamie had a good point once about emojis, that they're like the new hieroglyphics.
02:43:11.000
What if language eventually becomes a series of emojis?
02:43:19.000
Like, we on our phones, we can text and all that stuff there.
02:43:23.000
You can push, like, little things and then give a feeling.
02:43:34.000
It would be hard to convey, like, hey, did you go to the movie at 7 o'clock or 8?
02:43:38.000
It would be hard to convey things like that through just emojis.
02:43:44.000
But then you'd say, you'd have to go movie, and then the at sign, and then 7 o'clock, and then you would go question mark, 8 o'clock, question mark?
02:44:15.000
I know what you're saying, but it would be a clock.
02:44:22.000
My friend, whoever I'm communicating with, I was really about to be over there.
02:44:27.000
Imagine if they came up with a language that was all emojis that kids just learned really early on.
02:44:32.000
My daughter, when she talks to me, is mostly in emojis.
02:44:36.000
Even when we put that FaceTime face, she liked to put that on.
02:44:48.000
I don't know what they be doing in there, but ain't no voices.
02:44:55.000
They're learning how to connect through energy and feelings and whatever you draw or whatever your creativity.
02:45:04.000
We're evolving out of our human bodies, slowly but surely.
02:45:10.000
It's happening, whether people recognize it or not, and it's going to be real weird when it takes hold.
02:45:21.000
I didn't think we would be right where we are now, so shit, I'm cool with it.
02:45:28.000
Man, if you ain't laughing at life, you're missing the whole point of this shit.
02:45:34.000
This shit funny as hell, just watching how stupid this shit evolve.
02:45:43.000
It's not a great time for everybody right now listening to this.
02:45:46.000
It's like everything that was in Living Color or everything a comedian said 20 years ago that we done said, it's like really life now.
02:46:55.000
This is what they made the Matthew Bridge off in Jacksonville.
02:47:08.000
No, I'm talking about y'all got roach traps out this bitch.
02:47:37.000
You know, them roaches, like, even, I've watched in my time of living, like, even, like, roaches evolve and do certain things, or flies be slower.
02:47:46.000
I've seen in certain places they're quicker now.
02:48:01.000
There's roaches that live more in fields, and they're slower and less reactive.
02:48:07.000
And then you've got roaches, most likely, that probably evolved in cities.
02:48:10.000
You've got to imagine, if people are laying out roastraps and people are stomping you every time they see you, you get faster.
02:48:16.000
Those roaches in the East Coast, like a New York City roach, that's a fast roach.
02:48:30.000
If you ever want to freak out, there's a great documentary on Netflix just called Rats.
02:48:34.000
And they take these rats and they test them for diseases and they fucking all have something.
02:48:39.000
They have giant parasites and this one had a bot fly in its cheek.
02:48:55.000
And then they were just saying, like, look, there's as many of these fucking things as there are people.
02:49:09.000
No, man, they haven't done shit to get rid of rats.
02:49:16.000
They can't if that hurricane hit that motherfucking nature.
02:49:21.000
I just read this the other day that 1% of the rats in LA are going to have some bubonic plague disease.
02:49:29.000
I think it's very soon or if they don't already have it, it's 1%.
02:49:38.000
So if you're a junkie and you're just shooting heroin into your asshole and then you take shits and these rats eat this shit, some homeless people have turned up with, what was it?
02:49:56.000
That's why you need to get closer to the country.
02:50:09.000
When it comes, it's going to go from there and spread.
02:50:12.000
But by the time it gets to you, you'll be going to grow your own shit.
02:50:16.000
I'm glad you brought that up because I want to find out what is the definition between city girl and country girl.
02:50:21.000
The thing you were doing back and forth on your Instagram all the time.
02:50:28.000
Well, that was something like, well, city boys, that's always been like a Florida thing from Tampa.
02:50:33.000
That's actually from Tampa, a song that's from Tampa called City Boy by Tom G. And it's always been like a little vibe.
02:50:45.000
And it's just a song I wanted to bring back for everybody in Florida.
02:50:49.000
And I did it at the Hip Hop Awards and everything.
02:51:23.000
It was dope, too, though, because when I did the Hip Hop Awards, everybody from Florida was tuned into that bitch because it was representing everybody in Florida, you know?
02:51:40.000
People, including me, people always shit on Florida.
02:51:43.000
I shit on it too, but we are crazy, but there's a lot of good things about us too, and that's the good thing.
02:51:48.000
Through all that bullshit, we know how to have a good time, and that's what our music shows, the good times and the vibes that we do.
02:51:56.000
A lot of the vibes come from us because, shit, that's all we do is party down there.
02:52:06.000
Well, the south of Florida might as well be another country.
02:52:09.000
I mean, south of Florida might as well be some Latin American country.
02:52:12.000
Some Latin American country that's protected by the Constitution.
02:52:22.000
They say you don't make it to America to, like, where's Paul?
02:52:33.000
That's the border of South-South North America.
02:52:55.000
South USA. But the rest of the South would be pissed.
02:52:58.000
But if you called it South South North America, it's so stupid.
02:53:02.000
The rest of the country would be like, yeah, you can have that.
02:53:12.000
Everybody in Tennessee and, you know, the real South would be like, fuck you, man.
02:53:24.000
Imagine if people did, I mean, it would be crazy if someone did decide to branch off.
02:53:34.000
Honestly, and you go to Montana and all that, they don't really go by these laws.
02:53:40.000
You get shot out there, you shot in North Dakota or South Dakota.
02:53:44.000
Well, for the longest time, Montana wouldn't make a speeding limit.
02:53:50.000
It ain't that much to do out there motherfucking Norway.
02:53:54.000
There's a lot of places like that in the country.
02:53:59.000
But it's also Montana, the people that live there value freedom.
02:54:14.000
The speed limit sign just says reasonable and prudent.
02:54:19.000
Truck, 65. Night, all vehicle, 65. That's interesting.
02:54:36.000
And you're going 95 miles an hour, that's kind of reasonable and prudent if there's no one on the road.
02:54:41.000
If you know how to drive, and you got a car that handles really well and drives really fast, right?
02:55:04.000
They probably living their best life out there for real.
02:55:07.000
It's a good place to live if you could take the winter.
02:55:10.000
I heard, what was the place in, was it South Dakota?
02:55:18.000
They say that's where strippers make the most money at.
02:55:22.000
Oh, where did I read this crazy story about the mine life, about what it's like there?
02:55:35.000
And it was these crazy towns that pop up right next to these mines.
02:55:39.000
Because all these dudes work in these mines, and they make money, and they need somewhere to blow it off.
02:55:44.000
And so it develops this sort of community around mines, mining towns.
02:55:49.000
And it's really like what it was in the Old West.
02:55:51.000
When you think about those Old Westy towns with a saloon and fucking shoot-'em-ups in the street, what was that?
02:55:59.000
It's people mining gold, and people who are thieves, and people bringing in cattle to feed the miners, and people feeding ranches, all that shit.
02:56:07.000
I mean, it's kind of what happens whenever you get this thing that people are trying to, a resource, people are trying to pull out of the ground, and then you build some sort of ramshackle civilization around it.
02:56:35.000
You know, like any kind of mining job, no matter what you're mining.
02:56:37.000
I mean, you're dealing with heavy equipment and shit.
02:56:50.000
They be getting them king crabs up there in Alaska.
02:57:02.000
Like, I think they be going for, like, $250 for the good tunas.
02:57:09.000
You get a lot of gold out of there, apparently, still.
02:57:16.000
So there's all kinds of different mining going on down there.
02:57:20.000
Yeah, but this one article that we read is just about this one town where everything got real crazy.
02:57:27.000
Men making a lot of money, but they don't have anything to do.
02:57:37.000
I mean, that's when the miners came across the country.
02:57:41.000
Every fucking Old West movie is the same thing, right?
02:57:51.000
Like, that's what is kind of in, I think, in our culture now.
02:58:00.000
It's like, like, where we at now is probably like where...
02:58:03.000
I guess in the 80s where whites was, when they started getting money with the Wall Street and all that shit there, they was spending it like a motherfucker.
02:58:11.000
So it's like, shit, we don't know what to do with this.
02:58:21.000
Even if you do everything, all right, let me put my mom in this, put my mom in...
02:58:26.000
Like, if technology take over where ain't no jobs...
02:58:31.000
They're going to have to get something and you're going to be living off a stipend or something like that.
02:58:37.000
Yeah, but then what's going to do is you ain't going to have nothing to do.
02:58:44.000
Once you've got financial freedom, now it's time to live.
02:58:55.000
I mean, I understand and I don't put that much emphasis on big things to entertain me.
02:59:03.000
Like, if I could be entertained by just sitting here chilling, shit, anything else is a bonus.
02:59:21.000
This is why marijuana is illegal, ladies and gentlemen.
02:59:27.000
This is where all my best thoughts come out of.
02:59:42.000
Especially just, I see how I've brought a lot of people together in one.
03:00:03.000
I just try to do my very best to get out of my own way.
03:00:19.000
I mean, I have just incredible fortune and great luck and I do things that I enjoy doing.
03:00:29.000
If you can find a way to do something that you actually enjoy.
03:00:43.000
He taught me how to live my best life because I was always living my best life but on my own shit.
03:00:47.000
But in the industry, he taught me how to enjoy it.
03:01:03.000
Daniel Serafian is this UFC fighter who's built like a fucking brick shithouse.
03:01:18.000
But dude, I'm telling you, Snoop can throw some hands.
03:01:30.000
Look, that dude with the yellow on his gloves, that's Daniel Serafian.
03:01:46.000
But Snoop is swinging at a world-class fighter.
03:01:50.000
I mean, Seraphion's obviously not letting him hit him.
03:01:52.000
He knows what's coming and he moves out of the way.
03:01:54.000
But the fact that Snoop is getting in there with a guy like him, that's impressive shit.
03:02:09.000
He does what he want to do when he want to do it.
03:02:21.000
That's why he's still relevant after all these years.
03:02:55.000
Go download my Christmas song called Christmas Trees.
