00:10:15.940 things but i don't have a lot of people working for me on that side of the thing i i notice

00:10:21.580 everybody's got like a video guy now that they walk around with i got a family and uh that's

00:10:28.980 where most of my time is like you know when i'm not working i'm spending time with my kids

00:10:32.540 and i'm kind of a private guy i don't like to do a lot on the internet just because

00:10:36.680 i grew up kind of not exposing a lot of uh personal information about me you know so then 0.74

00:10:44.000 why the fuck are you here man the interview is going to be done in seven so i don't know what 0.93

00:10:57.240 just don't want to piss you off man no no because well a lot bothers you no i have a lot a lot that

00:11:02.300 bothers me and for example i watch uh i watched a couple clips and i'll give you an example about

00:11:07.400 privacy someone on a podcast asked you i don't know if it was this podcast or like how much money

00:11:12.400 you got in the bank right and and you said you didn't want to answer yeah and then you whispered

00:11:17.400 it it was grant cardone yeah yeah yeah yeah and i and i was looking at that i go that's something i

00:11:21.880 would never say to anybody how much money it just that's how i grew up it was very like shut your

00:11:29.680 i wasn't even allowed to tell people we were going on vacation you're still here

00:11:33.100 i wasn't even allowed to tell people i was going on vacation uh why growing up because my father

00:11:40.620 feared they were going to rob the house they probably will too yeah so like you grow up super

00:11:45.260 paranoid because that's how i was every bad situation could have happened to me yeah every

00:11:49.420 single one uh yeah growing up in the family i did it was a lot of uh negativity and a lot of uh we

00:11:57.240 I gotta defend him it's his notes

00:12:00.340 it's his notes

00:12:01.040 and you need a better system

00:12:03.320 because Rob kept getting thrown out too

00:12:05.640 find a spot make it big and leave it

00:12:08.300 you can't be doing that

00:12:09.500 it's fine that you're doing that

00:16:25.600 And I feel ashamed that I was put on to you so late.

00:16:30.820 And I find it interesting that a lot of not just comedians, but people in specific industries will find their their fit later in their life.

00:16:42.300 Why did I not know about you soon?

00:16:43.720 Like you seem to pop up out of nowhere.

00:16:45.240 No, no.

00:16:47.060 Well, I had a fan base, and I just don't feel like I've kind of kicked into the mainstream as much as other comedians might have.

00:16:56.280 You're talking about yet?

00:16:57.660 Yeah, I just feel like I've been flying kind of under the radar for quite some time.

00:17:01.560 I mean, you talk to a lot of people, and a lot of people outside kind of my fan base are just now, I feel just now kind of getting to know who I am.

00:17:10.720 That's fascinating, man, because you sold out, you're the first comedian to sell out MSG twice?

00:17:16.000 I did it four times on a weekend.

00:17:18.360 Yeah, don't ever get that wrong.

00:17:21.060 But yeah, but that was, I just have a very loyal fan base.

00:17:26.160 And people like yourself, maybe the younger people in the room,

00:17:28.920 might not be privy to kind of what I'm doing up until now.

00:17:32.760 I think over COVID, a lot of people got introduced to my humor

00:17:35.020 because a lot of people were just sitting at home doing nothing

00:17:36.980 and people were sharing videos.

00:17:38.880 But yeah, it's been a slow burn for me.

00:17:41.160 I've been out here since 1998.

00:17:42.920 That's what I'm saying.

00:17:43.800 like i'm happy that you found success right because some people will go their whole lives

00:17:48.360 on on that on that burn and never have uh their fire ignite but you got it and it's really cool

00:17:54.040 to see i i i actually disagree i think you're more mainstream than you think um do you do you

00:17:59.780 think you did something in your act in your comedy that that that made your fan base so rabid

00:18:07.600 so um this was i think either my first or second special you might know um that i talked about

00:18:15.020 uh being italian and i did an italian wedding bit and i'm like oh i don't know if this is too

00:18:19.720 specific to my my culture i don't know if everybody's going to get it but that bit kind

00:18:24.440 of introduced me to the italian community and i feel like as soon as i got the italians on board

00:18:30.000 they talked to everybody who was italian and a lot of people started coming out from that from

00:18:34.300 that specific uh community but you know a lot of my bits are observational and they hit um a wide

00:18:41.180 swath of people so yeah i uh there's nothing i could tell you oh i did this and man i got this

00:18:48.020 there's this doorbell bit that i did that seemed to gain some popularity online but i didn't even

00:18:52.240 know it i was popular from it just because i never posted it was from somebody else posted it yeah

00:18:57.680 you're you're one of the comedians that are super clippable your clips appear everywhere you might

00:19:02.120 not be the one doing it but like you're syndicated by people who just love your stuff yeah and i'm

00:19:06.780 really appreciative that people you know other than because again i i know social media but i

00:19:11.700 don't know it as intimately as you know you guys might uh be on i mean like before this you were

00:19:16.940 you were like posting i'm a social media guy yeah you're constantly on it so for me i i uh

00:19:22.800 i'm learning as i go because do you feel like you have to integrate it now into

00:19:27.560 your touring like like surely you're posting about what you're doing right

00:19:31.520 see this is what i i want everything i do to be funny online and not just not just um posting

00:19:38.880 just the post and i guess maybe that's not the right way to think about it but i try to do things

00:19:44.180 that are entertaining and funny rather than just hey guys and that that that then and there's not

00:19:48.960 really any funny yeah yeah i've seen some of your selfie videos go viral on tiktok i've seen you

00:19:55.980 make it a tiktok or two no uh i don't know i i have tiktok but i don't look at tiktok

00:20:00.780 interesting see i i i i look at the videos to see oh okay this one's make this is doing well 0.98

00:20:06.360 they like this they like that but again i'm not like churning on this shit right when i wake up

00:20:12.300 i i just i'm in a different chapter in my life i i've been touring for so long and doing comedy 0.96

00:20:18.280 for so long and now i have two small kids five and three and i'm i want to spend a lot of time

00:20:22.980 with them and uh so not that i'm like veering away from working but i just i'm i'm hitting

00:20:29.640 another stride do they like immediately when they come out or start talking do they talk like like

00:20:36.160 this like immediately or right out of the womb immediately right out of the so like they call 0.98

00:20:40.580 mama mama yeah it was more um it was usually i do the shit jokes i'm so sorry i don't know what's

00:20:48.340 going on i just i'm just honestly i'll be honest i'm trying to activate him a little bit we're 0.98

00:20:53.680 asking him about tiktok he doesn't give a fuck okay i'm trying to give him something to work 0.94

00:20:58.100 with talk to me about working at the four seasons in beverly fucking hills how about that so i had 0.99

00:21:03.540 a job working as a waiter at the four seasons hotel when i worked uh when i came out here in 0.73

00:21:09.460 1998 and i was working at the windows lounge and i worked there until 2005 so i had seven years of

00:21:16.940 working as a waiter while i was kind of getting my footing with stand-up and serving all the

00:21:22.100 celebrities you know nicole kidman sean penn used to come in pacino de niro and whatnot and then

00:21:28.340 subsequently started working with these people in movies so weird to be like serving de niro

00:21:34.100 peanuts in 2004 and then i'm starring in a movie with him in you know 2019 did you tell him that 0.99

00:21:41.580 yeah i said i waited on you at the four seasons hotel and by the way you're a shit tipper it 0.98

00:21:47.740 probably was like it probably was like the moment when he said that his family owns it and he was 0.93

00:21:52.420 like that's not it's like the same exact kind of cool man exactly the same reaction um yeah so

00:21:59.180 you know i uh i needed money you know i i i needed a supplement my income while i was doing

00:22:04.880 uh stand-up comedy and bowling alleys and dry cleaners or wherever the hell they were having

00:22:10.200 comedy you know i didn't pay anything so i had to put food on the table so

00:22:13.780 you know and i'm not ashamed of working there it was great for me i made a nice living and uh met

00:22:19.580 some great great people probably a lot of good-looking girls there too a lot of good-looking

00:22:23.780 girls came in there but again this is los angeles not everybody's looking at the waiter so uh

00:22:28.800 especially at four seasons we're good we're good so uh yeah i mean it was a great place to work

00:22:38.160 there's a lot of stuff that went on at the four seasons hotel while i was there there was a guy

00:22:42.200 used to come in and uh tip a lot of like i used to bring him a coke he used to give me a hundred

00:22:47.660 dollars and uh this went on cocaine what the fuck are you giving him well it's like no one knew what 0.53

00:22:53.780 he was doing but turned out that these guys were like uh there's just a lot of activity that went 0.98

00:23:00.000 on there during that time that was a little uh shady to to talk about prostitution there was

00:23:05.800 some prostitution there yeah yeah i feel like that's all about drugs drugs no not so much

00:23:11.180 i didn't see a lot of drugs what are you talking about more like uh this was like a ponzi scheme

00:23:16.120 i think these guys were running and they were passing around a lot of like made off was hanging

00:23:20.420 out there uh i didn't ever saw made off but uh maybe made off types used to come in there how

00:23:26.220 i'm so curious how were you as a waiter i just i can't see you serving i was angry and i was 0.98

00:23:33.160 looking back on it i wish i was a better waiter because when i was there i was i would bitch

00:23:39.960 you about what the people wanted because the requests were so kind of out of bounds for me 0.78

00:23:44.640 like one woman was like do you have another wine glass the way this rests on my lips

00:23:50.080 it's not really um allowing me to drink the wine like hey that's like

00:23:54.640 i had to bite my tongue a lot there because my personality and how i behave didn't really match

00:24:03.800 with like the accommodating people's requests especially if they were so out of bounds like

00:24:08.280 that well especially here in la like people are not there's people are not real here like i don't

00:24:12.580 mean like real like no that person's fake like these are cyborgs they're npcs like they're not

00:25:32.240 This is what I'm trying to do right now during this interview.

00:25:35.320 We're talking here.

00:25:36.720 But then every once in a while, I feel the need that I need to include you into the conversation. 0.99

00:25:51.260 They do not like when George gets ignored.

00:25:53.620 uh you know you're the third seat and unfortunately you're the farthest neck like that's you know

00:25:58.920 that's 180 degree term and just four people in general on the show is is it's it's not always

00:26:03.260 an easy volley back and forth but we've got it down to a science now chicago any reason

00:26:06.820 your family picked chicago to be to the city because there's a lot of underworld activity a

00:26:12.000 lot of mom with the underworld oh listen second time this has come up i mean he's a hairstylist

00:26:29.980 from mississippi then ended up in chicago uh and then my dad opened up his first hair salon there 0.99

00:26:35.420 in i think 1978 so we stayed there it was awful as far as the weather but the people of chicago

00:26:41.140 it's just a great city great food scene and food something that you're super passionate about

00:26:47.500 obviously i don't know if we're going into this yet but deep dish pizza versus regular thin pizza

00:26:53.640 i'm from new haven connecticut the pizza capital of the world yes as most people know very thin

00:26:59.680 thin cross pizza versus your uh i don't even know if you like deep dish what's your price i like

00:27:05.240 deep dish but i i prefer just a simple margarita pizza beautiful i i like the deep dish when i'm

00:27:11.120 there but if i'm gonna if i'm gonna choose i'm going uh i'm going thin have americans ruined

00:27:15.620 pizza i don't think so i mean like uh i think i think they got a little out of hand with with

00:27:21.660 the toppings pineapple yeah no i'm not a big pineapple guy of course of course you aren't

00:27:26.280 simple simple pizza i'm not looking for a lot of toppings no no what about portillo portillo's

00:27:31.420 love portillo's uh their beefs are great their uh the burgers are really fantastic shake you ever

00:27:37.620 had a cake shake at portillo's they put a whole piece of cake into a cup and then make a milkshake

00:27:42.680 It's so Chicago, so Midwest.

00:27:44.500 Yeah, yeah.

00:27:44.940 I'm curious, just, I hope this comes off right, but, no, no, no, just, you know, I listened

00:27:54.780 to your stand-ups, even just talking to you now, and, like, I'm really curious about what

00:28:00.240 makes you tick.

00:28:00.840 Like, you were a waiter for seven years pursuing a thing that might not have ever happened,

00:28:06.800 and you're so laid back, you know?

00:28:10.100 i don't i don't really see you getting like excited when you when you're talking i'm not

00:28:13.820 i'm not like hearing um like a like an artistic integrity that you need to release through comedy

00:28:19.480 or whatever it is like but but what is it that you were chasing besides just like paying the

00:28:23.780 bills and money back then you did you crave the success that you have now i never got into this

00:28:28.780 business for anything but making people laugh i went to college i went to northern illinois

00:28:34.580 graduated with corporate communicational organizational communication i don't even

00:28:39.100 know what the hell it was but uh i knew i was gonna come out to la and try to be a stand-up i just

00:28:44.180 wanted to make a living doing stand-up and if that was it that was it uh this is the only thing i

00:28:49.380 really know how to do i don't have multiple skill sets um i just know how to make people laugh and

00:28:56.340 that's about it i don't know other languages i don't know how to strum a guitar i was just at a

00:29:00.940 party uh it's a doctor friend of mine he's turning 50 he he's a doctor but then he also sang to his

00:29:07.320 life and played a song and i've always gone man i wish i had other talents like that you know you

00:29:14.340 know people that fly airplanes or this is all i need this is all i need and this is all i this

00:29:20.720 is all i really really do there's nothing else so that was it right yeah well your dad too what's

00:29:26.040 that your dad my dad no you're a dad i'm a dad yeah so i'm a father and i never even really was

00:29:31.500 thinking about kids when i got out here my sole objective was to make it and stand up or make a

00:29:36.720 living and then after that uh i met my wife my beautiful wife and we ended up having a family

00:29:41.840 and now i can't even fathom a wife without without do you do you ever have trouble uh separating the

00:29:48.520 two like if you and what you and your wife are in like a huge argument because you didn't bring

00:29:52.300 the trash out like is that still like a thing i haven't had a girlfriend in a couple years do you

00:29:56.420 still have to bring the trash out or you probably have somebody that does that right no i mean

00:30:00.440 we don't have arguments when you got kids the trash is the least yeah got it you know so it's

00:30:07.140 more of like my wife grew up with uh with me and she had money and i grew up with a working middle

00:30:13.000 class now those two cultures coming together there's a lot of different different uh mindsets

00:30:20.100 on how to raise kids and whatnot so that that's where a lot of the kind of the speed bumps are

00:30:26.120 with the kids but does she ever do you ever have like a moment where you're in and are in any kind

00:30:31.540 of disagreement whatsoever and you you as like this natural comedian kind of break into like a

00:30:37.500 listen uh like i try to make things funny sometimes and uh sometimes it's not the right time yeah you

00:30:43.980 know i'm trying to make it i know exactly what you mean by that i'm always great joke wrong time 0.75

00:30:49.300 yeah and i'm like okay at least it was good i would say always i'd say more like shit joke 0.96

00:30:53.560 Always the wrong time. 0.98

00:32:06.620 bro get the fuck okay okay i'll ask questions it takes a little while to get in the flow i was uh 0.99

00:32:11.520 i was doing i just recently got into stand-up um joe coy put me on stage for the first time 0.99

00:32:15.360 and he kind of mentored me and uh i learned a lot i've learned that finding your voice is the

00:32:22.880 hardest um tackle on being on stage uh is because my biggest fear is ripping somebody's material

00:32:29.360 because it happens so often on accident um when did you find your voice where you're like oh that's

00:32:35.240 it how many years into your stand-up where you're like oh this is who sebastian is uh i i kind of

00:32:41.700 knew my voice right from the get-go but it took me a while to hone it i was always i used to come

00:32:47.260 on stage extremely angry my first line was the week i had today and it was like anger yeah but

00:32:54.800 it wasn't fun it wasn't like i i wasn't smiling i wasn't letting the crowd in on the joke it was 0.64

00:33:01.600 very um you know just just talking to them and venting yeah venting you know like you bitching

00:33:08.740 but i always knew i had a kind of a unique unique take on uh observational humor and people and the

00:33:16.540 way they behave the way they move and uh i was never the class clown i was always silent i was

00:33:23.640 always observing and then i would come home and tell my family you know the kid the kid at school

00:33:28.760 today you know what he did i would make fun of the class clown because i didn't think he was funny

00:33:33.020 we usually aren't

00:35:05.740 stand-up do they see like oh this guy's got a future if it wasn't for this show my friends

00:35:11.560 and this whole crew i would not be doing stand-up sebastian i texted george every day for about four

00:35:16.780 months straight every day often unresponded sometimes four four or five six seven days in a

00:35:21.520 row have you done stand-up comedy today have you done stand-up comedy today have you done stand-up

00:35:27.860 I became the annoying guy, but I knew

00:35:30.140 that he has this thing and he needs to get on

00:35:32.120 stage, you know?

00:35:33.640 And he's naturally funny.

00:35:36.160 I've always been curious about that to pivot it back to you

00:35:38.180 because it's not George's podcast.

00:35:39.900 It's an us podcast. He's also

00:35:41.880 usually not this nervous, Sebastian.

00:35:43.820 Get your hand off my shoulder.

00:35:46.920 You are a little sweaty.

00:35:49.860 Wait, can I

00:35:50.340 touch on that really quick?

00:35:52.340 Yeah.

00:35:53.920 I am a comedy

00:35:55.680 I digest it

00:35:58.320 I like to watch comedy

00:35:59.280 Right

00:35:59.740 And observe it

00:36:00.920 Watch specials

00:36:01.800 And stand up

00:36:02.320 My whole life

00:36:02.860 I would love to get on stage

00:36:04.660 But I sweat a lot

00:36:06.140 And I get really nervous

00:36:07.380 I have super high energy

00:36:08.460 So I'd love to do it

00:36:09.240 But I get really sweaty

00:36:10.060 But one thing I've noticed

00:36:11.200 That's interesting is

00:36:12.220 Comedians sweating on stage

00:36:14.940 Is very acceptable

00:36:16.440 Yeah

00:36:16.760 It was made acceptable

00:36:18.160 By the early greats

00:36:19.640 Your sweating is like 0.99

00:36:20.720 A fucking two out of ten 1.00

00:36:21.920 You're like a tiny little 1.00

00:36:23.180 Like a

00:36:23.840 What do you call it

00:36:24.720 In Jewish language

00:36:25.580 a schvitzer yeah you fitz it you glisten but like but like dude like carlin bro and like those guys 0.98

00:36:32.340 man they fucking poor what is what is it that makes you sweat so much is it the it's the lights 0.90

00:36:38.100 lights but i when i go and do these shows i tell them make the room extremely cold yeah like i like 0.99

00:36:43.500 to wear jackets and whatnot and it could get a little warm uh i do sweat a lot like now i've

00:36:50.120 cooled down it's like when i you know i was rushing to get over here i was in the shower

00:36:53.860 or whatnot so i i perspired a little bit plus you know george is sitting next to me

00:36:57.980 you get a little nervous um but yeah uh yeah i don't sweat like that i remember george george

00:37:05.000 richard prior did a special just in red and he was he was drenched um but his situation was

00:37:10.380 different he was on crack you know what i'm saying so like that so are you so yeah facts

00:37:15.080 it's a good point it's a good point but speaking of energy and i'm like low-key i'm not matching

00:37:19.840 the energy of the show whatsoever because you guys are like at a at a very high level i the

00:37:25.380 whole room you would have saw me at a regular you probably wouldn't talk to me again that's probably

00:37:29.180 why you don't remember the first time we were talking george is relatively tame right now i'm

00:37:33.780 very tame well like well you guys seem constantly amped right there's like a there's a there's an

00:37:40.820 energy that you guys you're not you're not wrong man like in life yeah we're yeah yeah do you wake

00:37:46.920 up that way or does it take a while mine's like a mental illness you know what i'm saying like

00:37:51.180 mine's like mine like i can't turn it off you know what i'm saying like it's like anxiety adhd

00:37:56.220 like but that's like the thing that i try to bring to this show is like that super upbeat positive

00:38:02.980 energy because it i feel like it if people are more naturally down it will lift it's almost like

00:38:08.840 a rising tide lifts all boats so if you bring that positive like super amped energy to any

00:38:14.940 situation you can get other people to be

00:38:16.920 equally like positive

00:38:18.740 happy and like energetic

00:38:20.360 you know what I'm thinking I'm thinking

00:38:22.300 what coffee are these guys

00:38:24.320 yeah

00:38:25.100 or is it this drink

00:38:28.620 we drink prime brother

00:38:30.340 we drink a lot of prime

00:38:31.640 same with you probably

00:38:33.980 I'm excited I got a

00:38:36.220 zest for life

00:38:37.400 you know and

00:38:39.140 I am a yeah

00:38:41.640 amped human 0.98

00:38:42.820 uh but i i don't i mean who gives a shit you know you're so you and that's why your thing worked 0.84

00:38:50.080 you just you stuck to what you do and you said you uh your whole goal has just been made to make 0.91

00:38:54.960 people laugh but you have you have done a little pivot recently into traditional hollywood you

00:39:00.400 know and we've seen you in some films uh personally i i hate the hollywood machine

00:39:06.560 have you have you found fulfillment in in in traditional cinema i haven't done a lot uh but

00:39:14.160 what i have done is is a lot different than stand-up i mean stand-up you're in control of

00:39:18.720 everything it's just you up there and then when you're in the movie you know there's just a lot

00:39:24.300 of voices there's a lot of people around so uh it's it's it's a change that you got to get used

00:39:29.740 to will i ever stop doing stand-up comedy absolutely not will i put myself in these

00:39:34.560 films and tv uh opportunities absolutely i i i haven't had a problem with hollywood 0.98

00:39:40.020 interesting i haven't had a problem to hurry up and wait doesn't i mean i see a lot of shit

00:39:44.500 bothering if i'm bothered in hollywood it's a little it's a it's boring yeah waiting to go up 0.76

00:39:50.920 on stage or do what you're what you're there to do but um once you see it on screen it's like that

00:39:59.120 all goes away like i just did a movie i wrote a co-wrote a movie um loosely based on my life it

00:40:05.400 was seven weeks in alabama right and it was tough for me because it was a lot of i was away from my

00:40:13.000 family i uh a lot of waiting a lot of we're gonna redo it again like i had to cry in this movie

00:40:19.840 now i don't cry i cry i'm very sensitive but i never cried on film before and i'm very sensitive

00:40:27.220 that was just so funny

00:40:28.740 I'm so sorry

00:40:30.380 I guess I would just love to see you cry

00:40:36.060 I know it sounds weird

00:40:36.840 I've noticed this about George too

00:40:38.680 he has very unpredictable reactions

00:40:41.480 to things that are not reaction evoking

00:40:43.940 whatsoever

00:40:44.700 I'm so sorry but all I pictured was you

00:40:47.660 crying about something I was like I gotta see that

00:40:49.840 I noticed it with Dyrdek Dyrdek would be like

00:40:51.500 mid sentence and he'd be like and then I went down

00:40:53.720 the street and I saw this guy mowing his lawn

00:40:55.580 and George goes wow

00:40:56.620 like that like there was there was no reaction was required to that specific portion of the

00:41:02.220 sentence he goes wow like we love you george you're you're great no i love it too it's awesome

00:41:07.980 um sorry go ahead no that's okay uh yeah i i cry on occasion what makes you cry uh movies make me

00:43:15.320 emotional okay i cried the whole thing cut all right we're gonna do it again do it again

00:43:29.740 there was the crying was less did you have robert de niro crying in the background for all eight

00:43:34.020 takes this guy was crying and every time it was this i was almost like a fan in the scene yeah

00:43:42.320 watching this going this guy's crying again at the same exact time it was like a a lesson in

00:43:49.300 acting it's like a connection that they have with something that yeah with something no every fiber

00:43:55.040 of their emotion yeah it's they can summon it it's absurd the best actors in the world i i it's a

00:44:00.620 talent i will never understand i don't get it i did it for pete it's pretty hard i can no no i

00:44:14.200 look at as like the ultimate crier like you think de niro can cry this dude makes de niro look like

00:44:19.880 a clown compared to this guy dude jordan peterson do you know who that is yeah this dude is on the

00:44:25.920 verge of tears constantly 24 i've never seen anything like it in my time wait you're talking 0.86

00:44:30.600 about this the speaker yeah the orator the college professor jordan peterson constantly i disagree

00:44:35.260 no i'm not he's also not an act hold on i'm not i know that but i'm not i'm talking about people

00:44:39.440 who can cry for any reason i'm not asking you for your opinion i'm giving a factual note this

00:44:44.240 man is always crying because he's so intelligent and he he understands the the the lack of the lack

00:44:51.840 that humanity currently is and he just is crying every video i've ever seen of him he's pouring

00:44:56.880 you know what might be scary

00:44:59.080 dating somebody who's really good at fake crying

00:45:01.960 I'm running lines

00:45:04.100 with my girlfriend, running lines

00:45:05.340 not auditioning, not on camera

00:45:07.520 running lines, bro 1.00

00:45:09.520 it fucked me up 0.96

00:45:11.840 so believable, I'm like 0.99

00:45:13.260 have you been lying to me, like when you cry

00:45:15.320 you cry like this, so now when we're 1.00

00:45:17.680 in arguments, I deadass be like, are you fucking 1.00

00:45:19.560 with me, are you actually crying, she's like, no I'm fucking crying 1.00

00:45:21.360 you asshole, dating actors 1.00

00:45:23.100 and actresses, very 1.00

00:45:25.640 scary very scary yeah because they could turn it on at any point time anytime i see people 1.00

00:45:30.660 crying in movies now that have like seen the hollywood machine i know you're doing that shit 0.95

00:45:34.140 eight times how it's funny robert de niro is such a good actor he made you a good actor just by being 0.96

00:45:40.800 in the same room that's what i'm saying rubbed off it's rubbing off bro so why did you use a

00:45:45.920 tear stick they have those yeah but this is something where i had a i had to get there

00:45:51.060 emotionally to prove it to yourself you did you didn't have to read for the movie it's your movie

00:45:56.200 right yeah okay okay so you didn't have to read but so you wrote the crying scene uh we co-wrote

00:46:02.280 the crying scene my my writing partner he he wrote a lot of it so it's not like it really but it was

00:46:07.900 it was my essence it was me professing my love to my father and and uh you know he told me think

00:46:15.320 about your dad think about the struggles that he had to go through coming from sicily when he was

00:46:19.520 15 years old starting a business here starting a family and then i started to think about all

00:46:24.020 these things and i had to be out of breath in the scene so i was running around nice uh you know

00:46:31.080 the airport um getting worked up and then i had to enter the scene it's stuff i never did before

00:46:36.740 it was learning so how's your acting it's okay i mean it's it's not as good as my stand-up

00:46:42.400 see this is where i my my curiosity continues because like we know you're like the best at

00:46:48.800 stand up and you you took a bold leap late in your career to go act that is acting is hard it's

00:46:57.020 difficult i know it's wrestling and the wwe but but that comes natural to me and if i but acting

00:47:02.560 does not and i don't think if you don't have the it what boxing boxing oh i wasn't making no i know

00:47:09.080 but also boxing a lot of shit that's not it's natural i think acting is one of those it things

00:47:15.200 Yeah, either half of you 0.97

00:47:16.160 I agree

00:47:17.440 That's why when people are like, I'm going to acting class

00:47:19.620 I'm like, bro, it's either you're crazy or not

00:47:21.560 Well, what's the metric for success though 0.70

00:47:23.960 For acting though

00:47:24.820 Because social media has changed the landscape so much 0.90

00:47:27.000 That now the most garbage people are in huge movies 0.66

00:47:29.580 So do you mean to be a culturally acclaimed actor 0.61

00:47:32.500 A critically acclaimed actor

00:47:33.600 Or a box office success

00:47:35.780 You just gotta be believable

00:47:36.900 Do people watch you and believe you

00:47:38.840 Also, there's two different types of actors

00:47:40.900 Like movie stars, where they play themselves

00:47:42.740 In every single movie

00:47:43.900 Kevin Hart, Dwayne Johnson

00:47:45.000 yeah exactly

00:47:45.640 like even

00:47:46.700 Ryan Reynolds

00:47:48.160 he plays that same character

00:47:49.480 yeah yeah yeah

00:47:50.080 and he brings it to life

00:47:50.900 every single time

00:47:51.500 have you ever thought

00:47:52.000 about doing that

00:47:52.540 with your stage

00:47:53.580 character of you

00:47:54.780 what

00:47:55.680 like bringing that

00:47:56.740 character into like

00:47:58.040 a movie or

00:47:59.320 um

00:48:00.620 I try to do that

00:48:01.840 with a sitcom

00:48:02.520 and

00:48:03.080 we didn't get picked up

00:48:05.000 but I kind of

00:48:05.840 tried that already

00:48:06.540 and I want to go

00:48:07.820 somewhere else

00:48:08.300 with maybe TV

00:48:09.140 maybe we do something

00:48:10.060 together sometime

00:48:10.700 George

00:48:11.360 okay

00:48:11.860 I just shot my shot

00:48:13.280 you guys told me 0.77

00:48:14.140 to jump in

00:48:14.620 You're not there yet.

00:48:15.420 You're not there yet.

00:48:15.440 Right now with no pitch.

00:48:16.760 Just maybe we do something together sometime.

00:48:18.900 You don't want to give them something to work with?

00:48:20.980 Watch.

00:48:21.280 Hey, ready?

00:48:21.600 Check this out.

00:48:22.820 What's wrong with that?

00:48:24.020 See?

00:48:24.420 We could be like brothers.

00:48:29.740 Why?

00:48:30.160 You don't like my impression?

00:48:31.760 I'm not looking for a double.

00:48:34.320 Why not?

00:48:36.040 If we could get the real George, maybe we could.

00:48:38.860 Yeah, because that's what they want to see is this.

00:48:41.720 Have you guys heard about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ?

00:48:44.620 I don't know

00:49:03.820 What was it about Catholicism 0.99

00:49:05.160 That pushed you out of the

00:49:06.240 I mean it seems like

00:49:07.820 Such an easy

00:49:08.480 Such an easy religion dude

00:49:10.880 I went to church every Sunday

00:49:11.920 With my mother

00:49:19.700 organized you know religion i know i don't i don't it's kind of like me too no are you are

00:49:24.880 you paying attention at all to the rising scene of comedians uh i don't know a lot of them but

00:49:32.200 now that i'm doing a lot of comedy in la and i'm going to be home a lot i'm starting to see

00:49:37.600 some of the new rising stars i don't know them by name but i'm starting to hang around the clubs

00:49:41.800 more and starting to see people coming up because when you're on tour you don't really go on you're

00:49:45.440 not really going to the clubs but now i'm going to the clubs and i'm starting to see people you're

00:49:49.040 you're obviously an excellent comedian i'm wondering if you're uh taking learning from

00:49:54.920 from people that you watch from people that are coming up on the internet or in real life

00:49:58.420 um not really i'm learning from me going up on stage not necessarily watching i'm learning to

00:50:07.760 take a lot more risks every time i go on stage so for me it's always a a learning process i mean

00:50:14.280 time to get up on stage especially at the comedy store the improv laugh factory wherever you're

00:50:18.440 going around town just kind of working on new stuff not being afraid to i always start with

00:50:23.820 new material a lot of people throw it in the middle or what maybe at the end i always like

00:58:14.900 Speaking of food, well done.

00:58:16.840 Yeah.

00:58:17.080 Can we talk about this for a second?

00:58:18.100 Yeah.

00:58:18.600 You got a food show, which I'm extremely jealous of as a cheeseburger reviewer.

00:58:23.280 I have the most viewed weekly cheeseburger review on YouTube.

00:58:28.280 Every single week, I go and I review another fast, casual cheeseburger joint.

00:58:32.780 All right.

00:58:33.340 You got a favorite cheeseburger?

00:58:34.260 i like uh god what are these guys what's not heavy-handed heavy-handed oh my god great 9.1

00:58:42.680 wow really that's a great oh you know your burger yeah that's it that's a food truck here in los

00:58:47.080 angeles that they serve a short rib burger uh short rib meat they cook their their fries in

00:58:52.280 the uh beef grease still mcdonald's user they still do it it's a great burger i'm actually

00:58:57.000 very blown away by that as a as a food guy i'm happy that you said that so so let me ask you

00:59:02.360 this it seems to be a trend now the reviewing of food yep how did you get uh into reviewing

00:59:09.860 lana broke i've been yeah yeah lana and him broke up so yeah me and my ex broke up so i started

00:59:15.220 reviewing food no i listen i started with food so when instagram started 2012 i never posted a

00:59:22.460 picture of me it was just what i was eating i've been obsessed with food my entire life

00:59:26.300 pizza cheese steaks cheese fries cheeseburgers mozzarella whatever i could find that looked

00:59:31.920 aesthetically pleasing from a food standpoint i'll take pictures of and post on my instagram

00:59:35.580 they're still there the pictures are still there and um and you're in photography right i did

00:59:40.040 photography at first now i do the podcast my own youtube channel all this stuff but i think i think

00:59:44.660 like people talking about food is such a passion i mean especially in the italian community right

00:59:50.700 food is such a passion and it evokes such a passionate response from people based on their

00:59:57.560 individual interests and and and i've always been extremely passionate about food you know for as

01:00:04.340 long as i can remember and cheeseburgers especially and so when i got it when i started to create to

01:00:08.420 have a an audience of my own and a channel of my own i thought i could infuse into the content it's

01:00:12.420 done really well obviously uh dave portnoy a friend of ours uh is the biggest pizza reviewer

01:00:18.420 And I'm sure, you know, seeing his ability to do that in a digital, from a digital perspective

01:00:22.540 also pushed me to do it.

01:00:23.640 But I just love food.

01:00:25.760 I love food so much.

01:00:26.760 Jeff just texted me, wake up.

01:05:36.300 What was that?

01:05:37.180 What was that?

01:05:38.140 So that's the question I've been asking myself about that whole three-year period of my life.

01:05:43.700 Like, what was that?

01:05:44.680 Were you living there, too?

01:05:47.560 Basically, the answer is no, but I was there every day bothering you and your neighbors

01:05:51.200 with my brother dude you ever go over there and like complain no i don't complain i'm not what

01:05:57.280 i'm not that guy no hey man have you seen you what are you talking about you don't i don't

01:06:03.120 learn to keep his mouth shut whatever i didn't know who lived there and bumpy johnson yeah

01:06:07.260 bumpy johnson could have lived there how do i know he would have kept his mouth shut 0.99

01:06:10.860 he goes i don't rat i go something the mob would say oh that's oh that's that's funny though damn 0.94

01:06:16.040 yeah yeah the neighbors were uh were not happy with him and then the big one that got him at 0.90

01:06:20.300 the time was a news van came to cover the story about what the hell is going on at this house

01:06:25.800 why there's 50 kids outside every day yeah and he you know climbed on top of the news van made

01:06:30.740 fun of the news reporter's shoes hit him with the what are those and uh yeah just a personal

01:06:36.900 apology from the paul family for their no no it was it was it was kind of away from me like i said

01:06:41.500 three or four blocks away so it's not like we were getting a lot of that uh the runoff smoke

01:06:46.220 my buddy's

01:06:48.200 kids came to visit and they

01:06:50.500 wanted to go see, they knew where the house

01:06:52.780 was and they wanted to go see it

01:06:54.760 it was like, forget

01:06:56.660 Disneyland, we want to go over to

01:06:58.840 the house to see what's going on

01:07:00.420 so we took him over there. You know what's so crazy

01:07:02.860 man? We took him over there

01:07:04.640 I didn't just skim past that

01:07:06.340 could you imagine Sebastian just driving

01:07:08.480 and he goes, yeah

01:07:09.060 you see the guy right there?

01:07:12.040 You know those houses that set up a lot

01:07:14.680 of christmas lights like around christmas and you drive real slow fast and the kids point that was

01:07:19.320 like that house that's that's exactly what it was what was i going to say um could have been

01:07:25.100 anything could have been about burgers hospitality no it was about uh jake people going to his house

01:07:31.800 me going to the house could have been anything i don't know but i did want to ask something about

01:07:36.260 uh uh being being on a stage as big as madison square garden i'm i'm curious um as in well yeah

01:07:43.260 i would consider myself an entertainer performer and being under those lights is uh is is riveting

01:07:49.620 it's also very taxing and and and can be difficult and overwhelming do you have a pre-game ritual

01:07:55.380 before you you go and do these massive shows and second part of that question when you perform at

01:08:01.540 a venue that is that big do you give it your best material so it is a hundred percent chance you are

01:08:07.000 going to land that night in front of all those people that particular weekend i wish i would

01:08:11.320 have enjoyed the moment more than i did i was too in my head i was too i wasn't in the pocket i

01:08:18.760 wasn't in the moment i was like oh my god madison square garden is muhammad ali michael jordan i

01:08:23.680 remember you know watching michael jordan play the knicks there and all this stuff was going

01:08:27.220 through my head and i i felt like i i should have in my career in general i wish i would stop and

01:08:33.180 smell the roses a little bit more than i have because in those moments i'm always thinking

01:08:38.140 about the next moment and i'm never really in the present and i wish i would have been in the

01:08:44.360 present more at those madison square gardens to answer your question in regards to the material

01:08:48.620 the material i'm given the same material i do uh in chicago i do it in new york it's not like oh

01:08:54.940 i'm bringing my special stuff to madison square garden i always want to do my my best give 150

01:09:00.940 and that particular weekend i just wish i would have like taken it in more because it was boom

01:09:06.900 it was over i'm like damn i wish i would have wish i would have just relished in this moment

01:09:11.620 plus i was like you know it's a big big weekend i'm nervous we're doing two shows a night i mean

01:09:17.780 we had a show at seven and ten so like the 19 000 people walked out and 19 000 people walked

01:09:24.740 i i can't even imagine like the logistics of that just like a separate group of 19 000 people

01:09:30.280 just shifting see that's absurd crazy but do you have a pregame ritual like i don't see you

01:09:35.360 getting nervous i don't see i see you walking on no there's no pre-game there's nothing i really

01:09:39.000 doing uh backstage i'm not jumping jacks i'm not listening to music yeah yeah yeah oh yeah

01:09:44.820 you're gonna go on stage no it's uh i'm in my room alone just kind of figuring out what i'm

01:09:52.240 gonna start with and uh and that's it there's nothing really that i'm that i'm doing that's

01:09:56.940 out of the ordinary are your kids aware of what you're doing yet do they know what's going on

01:10:01.680 with their papa my five-year-old does a little bit but not uh not really i mean they came to see

01:10:07.600 a show they don't know what the hell i'm talking about oh daddy's on stage but uh you know they

01:10:13.040 know i make people laugh that i just don't know if they know like what what's what the hell is 0.60

01:10:17.680 going on what the hell is going on they're too young my question is the first time you did a

01:10:21.940 stadium did they tell you that the laughter is going to hit you minutes later or seconds later

01:10:26.300 or no minutes uh i'd say a joke and go okay hold on wait a second wait a second there's a lag

01:10:35.660 uh no i mean uh the the laughter i mean people are laughing in the front row it's still pretty

01:10:42.400 real time george yes oh it's not that delayed i thought it was i mean i never performed but

01:10:47.860 i heard because i performed at a theater once and nobody told me that it's different than a club

01:10:51.840 like a like a laugh actor or anything so i was so used to the laughter being right there but i'll 0.74

01:10:57.560 tell a joke and then i wouldn't hear any laughter and i'm like oh fuck that didn't land and then

01:11:01.200 i'll start to do my other one and then i'd hear laughter and i was like wait what there's that 0.97

01:11:05.560 amount of son about this seems right sounds like you're performing in a black hole maybe maybe you

01:11:10.040 were performing in a different time zone than the other like half the audience was you've never dealt

01:11:14.500 with like sound bouncing and like well i mean they're there i don't i never looked at it as

01:11:19.560 such a delay where i'm into another joke and i'm getting a wave of laughter going where's this

01:11:24.860 coming from just from the last joke after the fact now now sebastian's gonna go on stage the 0.95

01:11:33.020 next time and it's gonna fuck with him dude so that way when he sits there frozen i'm like see 0.97

01:11:39.260 i fucking said they did that i was like no shot this guy's bulletproof it could be maybe we're 0.99

01:11:43.940 performing closer to the equator than him or something like well do you talk do you talk 0.99

01:11:47.640 fast on stage i was because i was nervous i was okay so when you're talking fast and there's no

01:11:53.320 like uh silence and pause then you might get that effect because you're already into your neck jokes

01:11:58.660 but like i like to thank you for talking fast i was nervous you're always nervous yeah so you

01:12:04.760 might that's what you might be feeling uh is is that i'm a little bit more slower in my delivery

01:12:09.900 and i like to like give a little pause so i don't get the effect that you got at the in arizona with

01:12:15.280 joe coy it was in vegas oh vegas sorry feels like feels like the the maximizers in in in

01:12:22.900 performance craft are the ones who can master the silence well silence is golden especially in

01:12:29.620 comedy uh you know just to relish in those moments of just complete silence and have they almost

01:12:35.540 almost the jokes or the or the laughter just trickle in it's a nice feeling also i'll let

01:12:42.380 you know when it happens you know when you're not nervous but with you you're you're super

01:12:46.960 expressive as well which which which really helps that silence you know you just you sit in that

01:12:51.320 expression and i i i'm wondering um tactical question but are there big screens that like

01:12:57.720 people in the rafters can see like the close-ups when you're performing yeah that was a big thing

01:13:01.740 doing these bigger rooms because like you said a lot of it's in the face especially with you

01:13:07.120 yeah and and you're doing these big things you got to have you know a big screen so i travel

01:13:11.820 with the screens and whatnot and i do it in the round because especially in the in the arenas i

01:13:16.860 do it in the round because i feel like it's it's more intimate than just doing it at the north or

01:13:20.700 south end of the arena so uh and then you have the the screens above you so people could see

01:13:26.180 uh i think screens are important even in a in a 2025 seat uh 2500 seat arena or a theater i i

01:13:33.500 bring in the screens just be sharp i saw one of those screens fall on someone in south korea yeah

01:13:38.620 it just one side went

01:13:41.240 and then it went like this

01:13:43.960 and then the other side let go 1.00

01:13:44.940 and the corner of it squashed a backup dancer 1.00

01:13:47.940 like they lived 0.84

01:13:49.660 they lived yeah

01:13:50.640 were they living but squashed

01:13:53.400 yeah

01:13:53.560 the two dimensional backup

01:13:55.540 they're flat now

01:13:57.020 but do you ever think about that as you're performing

01:13:59.240 you got a new joke coming up

01:14:00.560 and you think to yourself god at any second this jumbotron

01:14:03.300 squash me bro

01:14:04.800 into a pierogi 0.99

01:14:06.460 or into like a fucking little ravioli no no no i never thought i was gonna get hit by a screen 1.00

01:14:13.200 and be buried like jimmy hoff where the fuck is he he's in one of the holes in the desert isn't he 0.99

01:14:20.800 i know he is he's in new jersey what's your what's your relationship like with with bombing 0.99

01:14:26.880 or or hecklers and even zooming out a little bit more macro failing in general failing in general

01:14:34.940 you know uh i didn't have a good set i did the vmas i didn't have a good set on the vmas

01:14:40.940 i did the the mtv video music awards because of uh this nostalgia of it you know i'm like i grew

01:14:49.520 up on this they asked me to do it but i'm like i don't know i'm older you know this is a young

01:14:54.600 crowd they're looking for uh you know doja cat they look yeah they are they are so uh that was

01:15:03.580 one of the hardest gigs i think i've ever had to do just because the environment people are standing

01:15:09.400 right normally comedy yeah they're not chilling yeah and they're standing and they're young

01:15:15.360 and uh it was it was a tough bro i could see you thought andrew dice clay's audience was bad

01:15:21.100 i could see you in front of the vmas and you're like that's cultural appropriation another cis

01:15:27.140 white males on stage telling us like bro you dude you can't tell jokes at all do you ever worry or

01:15:33.580 think like twice about telling any jokes nowadays with this current culture that we live in listen

01:15:37.880 you're not gonna please everybody somebody's always gonna be bent out of shape for what you

01:15:43.440 say or what you do i i get it but as soon as you start editing yourself and saying i shouldn't say

01:15:48.800 that i just think you become unfunny so i've always been kind of true to what i do and if you

01:15:54.400 if you have a problem you have a problem with it if if you don't you don't so no i i don't really

01:15:59.140 i don't really edit myself i just put it out there and if you like it you like it bro don't 0.94

01:16:02.920 don't watch it the fucking beauty of being unbothered oh it is so peaceful that's the word 0.94

01:16:12.160 i live by that word unbothered well people lately been thinking you're an agent of the matrix and 0.99

01:16:17.160 that susan wood schkicky tells you what to say and by the way do you know how i fucking feel about 0.98

01:16:20.960 that you probably don't care give a shit at all unbothered yeah i don't give a fuck i'm i'm so 0.98

01:16:28.000 peaceful and it's nice but it took me a second to get there and and personally i like failing i like 0.98

01:16:33.660 i like falling short i think there's a lot of learning there like after you walked away from

01:16:36.800 the vma show is are there takeaways maybe maybe the takeaway was don't perform in a demo in front

01:16:41.500 of a demo that's not mine right like that's that's but that's a challenge to me for yeah for sure so

01:16:45.940 i i enjoyed the challenge and i you know i wish it would have went a little bit better for me

01:16:50.060 and i'm not that totally bombed but it was it was a different different environment uh but i'm glad

01:16:54.420 i did it and uh and you know you're gonna you're gonna come into situations in your career where

01:16:59.640 it might not be ideal um but you know i think if you you tackle it head on uh there's definitely

01:17:05.360 learning to come out of it would you have been able to get smacked by will smith and just hang

01:17:09.460 out and not respond oh that is a great question uh yeah my see my nature is not to respond to that

01:17:18.920 there's guys if they i know guys back home if you get slapped they get you it's like animal uh

01:17:28.100 they go after you i don't have that and this and i got such a i think so much and what chris uh 0.97

01:17:36.140 rock did it was it was a class move because he didn't know what the fuck was going on he gets 0.74

01:17:39.960 he gets slapped and and you know i i felt so bad for the guy uh but i don't have that i don't have 0.97

01:17:46.000 that reaction well yeah because you probably learned young you know wait for it son we'll

01:17:50.160 take care of him after dark alley when they're not looking you know that way it's easy to get 0.99

01:17:55.760 rid of the fucking body right he's convinced he's gonna get you he will get you he's got to slip up 0.99

01:18:03.680 no no growing up my dad's like whatever you do don't get in the fight don't mess up your hair 0.99

01:18:08.780 so all right you know what i finally believe you if he said that to you i finally believe you your

01:18:14.260 father is actually i didn't get fights as a kid because i used to be dressed up at school my 0.51

01:18:20.680 my mother used to dress me up slacks in third grade bro i didn't go to school like a slob 0.73

01:18:53.560 understood it but you couldn't even it's like you you can't even fight me after that because it's

01:18:58.080 like this guy don't want to mess up his his pants well because you knew that if you lost that fight 0.98
