With a backup generator in hand, Joe Diaz returns.
00:00:53.000
Last time Joey Diaz was here, the fucking power went out, man.
00:00:58.000
That was ridiculous, because by the time the power came back on, he was so high, and he hadn't talked for like 20 minutes, and he was basically asleep.
00:01:08.000
But it was such an organic podcast because shit happened and we just kept going.
00:01:15.000
Yeah, we started an audio podcast while it was all going on.
00:01:24.000
Look at you looking sharper than a motherfucker.
00:01:27.000
You know, I've been noticing I wear hats way too much.
00:01:31.000
And it's not like I'm wearing hats to cover up baldness or anything like that.
00:01:41.000
Right now, he's trying to make up for the fact that he's trying to look sexy.
00:01:52.000
This is a shirt we're going to be offering on higher-primate.com.
00:02:01.000
And the shirt says, Joey Diaz says, if you ain't high by two in the afternoon, go fuck yourself.
00:02:10.000
And that will be our number one selling shirt for sure.
00:02:13.000
All those other monkey, Buddha, marijuana, those are fine.
00:02:17.000
But this is going to take it to the next level.
00:02:31.000
You just adjusted something and just lowered something.
00:02:45.000
So the Joey Diaz, if you ain't high by 2 in the afternoon, go fuck yourself.
00:02:51.000
It's going to be printed up as soon as we can get it to the shop.
00:03:03.000
I'm at the Bitter End in New York City on Tuesday at 9 o'clock.
00:03:07.000
The Bitter End is an old rock comedy club that Lenny Bruce and George Carlin and Pryor and...
00:03:14.000
Yeah, but the last guy to do it was the guy from The Daily Show.
00:03:19.000
Yeah, it's a small little rustic place in the village.
00:03:22.000
And the guy's name is Peter Fogle, the guy that I met him during the UFCs.
00:03:33.000
You have to get a ticket and wait on fucking line.
00:03:36.000
So I waited an hour and Austin was like, you ain't got no ticket.
00:03:46.000
And for some reason, I looked at him, and I'd just seen this pain in his face.
00:03:50.000
And something, I'd never do this, just made me pull back.
00:03:53.000
I'm like, hey, Doug, you need a bud, don't you?
00:03:58.000
He goes, how'd you know I left my weed on the fucking counter?
00:04:02.000
And I went in my ball sack and gave this guy a bud right there at the fucking taxi cab line.
00:04:08.000
He just looked at it and looked at me like, are you fucking crazy?
00:04:35.000
And he goes, why don't you do a show at my club down in the village.
00:04:54.000
Stan Hope really created a monster with me when he started the not doing the comedy club revolution.
00:05:01.000
Every once in a while, you've got to step outside the comedy club and just get down.
00:05:05.000
They only seat 260. The tickets are going to go.
00:05:16.000
You know, this is old school fucking Jimi Hendrix from the Cafe Waugh.
00:05:27.000
So I figured, let me go into the city and if I call a calamity club, they're going to break my balls.
00:05:34.000
They're going to put me up at 2 in the fucking morning.
0.97
00:05:41.000
All we have to do is just pump it up on Twitter.
00:05:45.000
So how do people get tickets if they want to get tickets?
00:06:08.000
Any fucking Mo Mo can go on a Friday night.
1.00
00:06:10.000
Let me see you get down on a fucking Tuesday night.
00:06:22.000
I'm doing a club called The Comedy Club in Rochester, New York, in Webster.
00:06:58.000
I don't know, like Zartans or something like that.
00:07:08.000
It's amazing to know you a long time and to see what's come of your life.
00:07:13.000
It's amazing to have your wife in the Supremes, as I call it.
00:07:17.000
You know, like Deanna Ross had the three sisters, the Supremes.
00:07:31.000
You have a very, very nice, especially, you know, you didn't grow up in no fucking mansion when you were a kid.
00:07:43.000
You don't see this much in men, and he's great with them, isn't he?
00:07:47.000
They're like, that's big motherfucking daddy Kane Rogan and shit.
00:08:01.000
Do you know a fucking cop tried to shake me down today?
00:08:05.000
A fucking cop pulled me over today, and I asked, you know, I know they have the camera on the cars.
00:08:09.000
I just ask him, is there any reason why you're pulling me over?
00:08:12.000
We had you mistaken, then we ran your plate, and you're okay.
00:08:16.000
Then what the fuck are you pulling me over for?
00:08:18.000
I think he was pulling me over to see if I was smoking herb.
00:08:20.000
I don't smoke herb in my car, so you're fucked, guy.
00:08:23.000
Really, you don't think it might have been just exactly what he was saying?
00:08:28.000
I parked in a different place by my house, and he was on my corner.
00:08:32.000
And as I made a left, I seen how he looked at me.
00:08:37.000
I went down and by the time I got to hunger, he had made a U-turn and got right behind me.
00:08:42.000
Like, you know when you're looking at your radio and you look up and there's a cop behind you out of the way?
00:08:45.000
But it couldn't have been that he just thought you were somebody else?
00:08:47.000
Maybe he saw your haircut and he was attracted to you.
00:09:02.000
I said, this motherfucker's going to pull me over at 10. But what makes you think he was trying to shake you down?
00:09:15.000
Maybe he thought I was smoking dope in the car.
00:09:18.000
You just look like a dude who would be smoking pot in the car.
00:09:42.000
I just don't do it because sometimes in the daytime, I don't need to be that fucking stoned.
00:09:48.000
If I take weed with me in the car, I'd be a mess.
00:09:52.000
It is funny how California makes you totally forget that.
00:10:00.000
I mean, I was like, now I fucking feel like it's like that everywhere.
00:10:06.000
I mean, it's not supposed to be that someone can stop you from doing it, but it is supposed to be that some places can decide it's okay.
00:10:24.000
There's a sign that says it's closed forever or something like that.
00:10:28.000
And I heard that one of the places they set on fire.
00:10:32.000
I don't know if it was the Grow Yard or whatever, but there was one place on fire.
00:10:38.000
The best Jolly Rancher candies you will ever eat in your life.
00:10:44.000
I was eating them, popping them with Ralphie Mae like they were candy.
00:10:49.000
And by the third one, I'm at the sushi place and I didn't even know where the fuck I was.
00:10:53.000
Do you guys realize how alien this conversation is to most people listening all over the world?
00:10:58.000
We had this conversation at 8.30 in the morning, you and I. I called you and I said, you know, as a kid, you expect jetpacks and you expect people going to Mars and shit.
00:11:06.000
Never did I thought in any of my youth that at 8 in the morning I would be at a Wii store eating bagels and smoking dope next to an attorney and a construction fucking worker on their way to work.
00:11:19.000
Fucking cops have medical marijuana licenses out here.
0.98
00:11:31.000
I mean, I don't think they're allowed to test them.
00:11:34.000
I shouldn't be talking out of my ass because I don't know what kind of testing they do once they're in office or once they're on the job.
00:11:40.000
But to get to be a cop, I'm sure they must have to piss test you.
00:11:44.000
I think at the beginning of something, they do psychological and all that shit to you.
00:11:48.000
Look, there's too many fucking restrictions if you're a guy who's just got a fucking job, all right?
00:11:55.000
If you're just a guy who works at UPS and, you know, you got a decent management job and you like it, and you got to fucking piss into a cup every couple months, so you can't even enjoy yourself at your brother's wedding.
00:12:07.000
Everyone's sitting around smoking a joint, listening to some good songs, and you got to stand over there by the fan.
00:12:13.000
Yeah, you worry that shit's going to get in your hair.
00:12:19.000
If you get high, you're only high for like two hours at the most.
00:12:27.000
By the time you get to work, most likely you'll be sober.
00:12:29.000
If you ate so much weed that you're still high the next day...
00:12:32.000
Have you ever been high in the car, guys, and something happens that you go, that was close?
00:12:38.000
Like you missed an accident or somebody was next to you and you just put the blinker on and went.
00:12:44.000
Yeah, I've done that so much when I'm not high though, so I can't really judge if I would have done that regardless if I was high or not.
00:12:52.000
You know, like something where you're looking down at your shoe or something like that.
00:12:58.000
You never caught yourself high and slipped and said, wow, that fucking was close or something.
00:13:09.000
And I don't ever not pay attention to the road.
00:13:12.000
Paying attention to the road is very important to me.
00:13:21.000
She was a publicist for one of the clubs and she was driving me to radio.
0.72
00:13:30.000
You got that kind of control over your car, really?
00:13:33.000
You hit a rock and that steering wheel twists to the right and you got this?
00:13:38.000
You're really paying attention to what you see in front of you?
00:13:52.000
But for a lot of people, man, it's too goddamn easy.
00:13:59.000
BMW has this little knob that you dial the phone from all this.
00:14:08.000
So you never have to take your eyes off the road.
00:14:14.000
Ford has a button, you just go, dial Joe Rogan.
00:14:21.000
Even that, you've got to watch what the fuck you're doing when you're clicking yes and okay.
00:14:25.000
But at least you're looking ahead, and you're getting the peripheral in there.
00:14:32.000
But man, fucking people who text their car freak me out.
00:14:36.000
You're hurling a giant metal machine 70, 80 miles an hour around a bunch of other ones.
00:14:44.000
And you're not even fucking paying attention, you cunt.
0.99
00:14:47.000
Do you think eventually us as a race is going to get to the point where that is just common?
00:14:58.000
I mean, it's going to get to some sort of a neural input at that point.
00:15:05.000
But, I mean, look, everything we've got today is fucking witchcraft 300 years ago.
00:15:13.000
That shit, it would fucking burn you at the stake if you showed up with an iPhone.
00:15:19.000
We're going to have to get over this human-machine interface.
00:15:23.000
We're going to have to get over the idea of implants.
00:15:25.000
People are going to have shit implanted into their body, and you're going to be able to communicate with other machines and other people who have chips planted in their body.
00:15:36.000
My buddy, I'm laughing because my buddy has a joke that he did in Texas.
00:15:39.000
He did a one-nighter in a club in a part of Texas that was so backwards that the opening act was a magician and they thought he was a devil worshipper.
00:15:53.000
It is one of the funniest bits, and he goes, Joey, it was a night from hell.
00:15:57.000
He goes, they were all like white Christians, and this guy was in there making birds disappear and shit, and they thought he was the devil.
00:16:03.000
They were like, get that devil out of the building.
00:16:14.000
You know, man, this is the thing about religion.
00:16:16.000
You can tell me you believe in God all day, but as soon as you start talking about the devil, holy shit, did you throw yourself in a box?
00:16:25.000
Even spiritual people are like, well, I didn't believe in religion, but I'm very spiritual, and I definitely believe in God.
00:16:45.000
You can't fucking say you believe in the devil.
0.98
00:16:50.000
When you're saying you believe in the devil, you're just going deep, deep, deep.
00:17:00.000
I get back, and I'm just going through the channels.
00:17:02.000
I put the news on, and it was like Spike from last night watching the UFC countdown.
00:17:08.000
Is this the fucking Exorcist at 9.05 in the morning?
00:17:16.000
There's people that don't have this in perspective because it's 2011 and you've had some amazing fucking Avatar-type movies.
00:17:24.000
They're on such another level now than they were back then.
00:17:27.000
But when The Exorcist came out, dude, that was the scariest movie of all time.
00:17:34.000
When that little girl spun her head around and started stabbing herself with a crucifix going, your mother sucks cocks in hell, and it's meat.
1.00
00:17:44.000
She's stabbing into the meat of her pussy with a crumb.
1.00
00:17:51.000
I watched the movie this morning for 20 minutes while I was making breakfast.
00:17:57.000
I had to turn it off and get the fuck out of the room.
00:18:04.000
And that's why I feel that Africa's always fucked.
1.00
00:18:10.000
There's always something going on in Africa.
1.00
00:18:20.000
Except this week, my prayers go down to fucking Japanese people.
1.00
00:18:24.000
Every day, that gets crazier and crazier with that.
00:18:29.000
Watch the fucking movie with no interruption.
0.67
00:18:32.000
You know, they had a lot of problems on that movie.
00:18:36.000
Like, a lot of weird things that the studio burnt down.
00:18:41.000
You know that guy, the guy I named my cat after?
00:18:44.000
When she's in the rocking chair, she keeps telling the priest, Dimi, that priest that used to be a boxer?
00:18:49.000
That's Jackie Gleason's motherfucking son-in-law.
00:19:08.000
And at the end he just beats the fuck out of the devil.
00:19:13.000
And Linda Blair's taken out of the bottom position.
1.00
00:19:15.000
And then she just throws him out the window.
1.00
00:19:27.000
So when it was done, they went so far with it, too.
00:19:31.000
You tell me there wasn't some arguments about whether or not they should have her stab herself in the pussy with a cross.
1.00
00:19:36.000
There must have been some studio conversations back then.
00:19:42.000
She's screaming, your mother sucks cocks in hell.
1.00
00:19:51.000
But here's the part I was watching today that was brilliant.
00:19:54.000
When the devil's first coming into the house, there's a fight one night in her house.
0.98
00:19:59.000
She's an actress, the mother, and she's having a party.
00:20:02.000
And the guy's German, the waiter, and the guy keeps saying something to him, you fucking Nazi.
0.90
00:20:07.000
And two days later, they find the guy in the bottom of the stairway with his neck twisted.
00:20:25.000
I mean, the Stephen King, the twins, and Shining, those are creepy little girls.
00:20:40.000
The girl with the TV that crawls out the TV and...
00:21:02.000
They were on TV. They never got to have a childhood.
00:21:05.000
Bitch, Linda Blair was putting a cross in her pussy at the age of 12. Somebody went to Linda Blair and said, Linda, hi, can you sit down for a second with your mother in the room?
1.00
00:21:14.000
In this film, we want you to take a fucking cross and put it in your little twat and say, your mother sucks cocks in hell.
1.00
00:21:22.000
This movie fucked her up so much, she ended up hanging out with Rick James 20 years later.
00:21:32.000
How could you do a movie when you're 12 where you're stabbing yourself in the pussy with a cross?
0.98
00:21:37.000
How could you do that and then expect to be normal?
00:21:44.000
And that crazy voice, that was the first original really scary movie.
00:21:50.000
Because there have been monster movies before, like Dracula and shit, but there was nothing that seemed real.
00:22:09.000
Nightmare on Elm Street, the first one, fucked my world up a little bit.
00:22:17.000
When he goes to pick that up and that little tongue starts moving...
00:22:19.000
We were talking about this the other day, but The Silence of the Lambs still fucking holds up.
00:22:25.000
At night, they're going to do a thing on A&E. I've seen it before about the making of that.
00:22:37.000
She's talking to him, like Mr. Lecter, her nervousness is so fucking real.
00:22:46.000
The way she's doing it, these are little weird twitches in your lip that you can't even fake.
00:22:52.000
You would literally have to be nervous to be having these little twitches and quivers in your mouth as she's communicating.
00:23:07.000
There's so much about that movie that was so badass.
00:23:12.000
The way he tricked them and got out of the jail.
00:23:21.000
That was my nickname from one friend, my friend John Tobin.
00:23:35.000
Nobody's done that since Robert Duvall in Godfather 2, when he talked Freddy Fivefinger's angles into killing himself in the tub.
00:23:42.000
Remember, he goes to visit them in jail, and he goes, at the end of the party, the Romans would get together and eat fruit, and then they'd slice their fucking wrists, and the next day they're playing cards.
0.55
00:23:56.000
Godfather 2 is one of the few movies where it was just as good as Godfather 1. Or good enough for me, at least.
00:24:11.000
Because, like, this Alien 2 was kind of fun, because there was a lot of goddamn aliens, and there was a big, giant fucking alien.
00:24:24.000
By the time you saw it, it got you, and it was impossible to kill.
00:24:27.000
But with Alien 2, it's like you're killing them left and right.
00:24:30.000
Like, okay, now this is a totally different thing.
00:24:33.000
They were super smart and clever, and they would get you and hide on people.
00:24:38.000
Now, they're killing ten of them before one person gets killed.
00:24:42.000
So, if you look at that, but it's still a badass fucking movie.
00:24:46.000
So, I don't think it's as good as Alien 1, but goddamn, it's still one of the best all-time science fiction movies.
00:24:52.000
You know, Alien 2, just Alien 1 was so fucking badass.
00:24:57.000
When that shit came out, dude, I remember I went to see that, and the first thing I said when I got out of the theater, I said, fuck Star Wars.
00:25:05.000
Like, that's like, and I'm a huge Star Wars fan.
00:25:07.000
I saw Star Wars like 13 times when I was a little kid.
00:25:10.000
But when I saw Alien, and I was like, that's what aliens are going to be like, man.
00:25:14.000
It's not going to be like some fucking furry dude with a bandolier on it, a gun.
00:25:21.000
Aliens is going to be some weird parasites that lock onto people and grow inside our bodies and explode out of our She's badass.
1.00
00:25:39.000
There's a few people that make acting worthwhile, and they don't seem to need that much attention.
00:25:45.000
Like that guy, who was the guy in my left foot, Daniel Day-Lewis?
00:25:49.000
He's a brilliant actor and you barely even fucking hear a peep about that guy.
00:25:53.000
He's never going to events and making a big deal about things and holding press conferences and fucking sitting in talk shows and crossing his legs talking about his fucking vacation.
00:26:05.000
That guy's hiding in Ireland learning how to box.
00:26:09.000
He's fucking eating gruel and living in a prison because he's got to be in a prison movie.
00:26:23.000
Gary Oldman, even in this stupid Red Riding Hood movie.
00:26:31.000
It was entertaining, but it was parts of it where you say, wow, this could have been really good.
00:26:37.000
This could have been really good, but it got a little Twilight-y at the end.
00:26:42.000
But there's parts of it that are, but Gary Oldman's a bad motherfucker.
00:26:46.000
Even in a silly movie, he still comes across like the creepiest motherfucker.
00:26:56.000
He ain't no fucking cardboard cutout of a villain.
00:27:02.000
His eyes are lit up like a killer, like for real.
00:27:05.000
There's some dudes that don't know how to do that, or they can't do that.
00:27:14.000
But whatever the fuck it is that those guys have, like Russell Crowe, he's got it too.
00:27:21.000
They can just really become someone different than who they are.
00:27:31.000
You know what this guy really fucking talks like and it's not weirding you out, but all of a sudden he's got this strange accent.
00:27:38.000
You know what Russell Crowe really talks like, but all of a sudden he's playing some guy from Brooklyn and you buy it?
00:27:45.000
Come on, I know what his real voice sounds like, but yet I'm still roped in.
00:27:51.000
That's why they give him 20 million to fucking move.
00:27:53.000
You know who's the worst at doing that, though?
00:27:56.000
I mean, every single movie is the same fucking character.
00:28:03.000
Listen, there's some motherfucking actors that could act their fucking ass off.
00:28:08.000
Denzel, Marlon Brando, the chick from The Postman Always Rings Twice, that Jessica Lange.
00:28:17.000
These fucking little bitches today couldn't deal with them.
1.00
00:28:19.000
These actors today hanging out at the fucking...
00:28:22.000
You think half of these motherfuckers could run with Marlon Brando when he was slinging dick in his day?
00:28:30.000
What's that movie he did down on the island when he met...
00:28:34.000
No, the one before that, where the treasure, when Warner Brothers said, yeah, go down there, have a blast.
00:28:40.000
They went down, he wasn't even directing, he was banging fucking chicks, 10 at a time.
0.58
00:28:44.000
He had some water boy fucking filming the fucking movie.
0.77
00:28:50.000
They're like, Marlon, what the fuck you been doing down here for eight months?
00:28:53.000
They weren't even going to give the Godfather because of that.
00:28:55.000
They were like, we don't even want to hear that fucking name.
00:29:01.000
We went down in his wildlife and he's drawing pictures.
00:29:11.000
And then for Superman, they're trying to call him up, come back.
00:29:13.000
He's like, listen, I read the script, send me a hundred grand.
00:29:28.000
He had been pissing him off for 30 fucking years.
00:29:40.000
She's up there fucking booing her and shit.
1.00
00:29:51.000
There were people complaining online that he wasn't funny.
00:29:56.000
Yeah, when Marlon Brando sent a fucking Indian with a feather in their hat to pick up his Oscar.
1.00
00:30:06.000
Well, that was their only outlet to express themselves back then.
00:30:09.000
They didn't have Twitter or the internet or anything like that.
00:30:14.000
If you wanted to do something, you wanted to protest something.
00:30:17.000
Yeah, you had to do it during an award show, like on television.
00:30:28.000
So you had to make, like, if you wanted to make a stand, making public stands was very important back then.
00:30:39.000
They held their fists up with the black gloves on.
00:30:45.000
They're tired of being fucking treated like they're shit their whole life, and finally they get to do something.
00:30:49.000
They win the Olympics, and they're like, look, bitch, stop with all this nonsense, all this racial hatred.
0.83
00:30:55.000
And then everybody looked at it as if they're racist, what they're doing.
00:31:02.000
It's a reaction to the society that they lived in.
00:31:04.000
And where else were they going to make that protest?
00:31:14.000
I'm talking about that message that they sent in 1960-something.
00:32:01.000
I don't know if it's like this everywhere, but in LA, food trucks have attacked LA. Now, food trucks are so popular, they have Twitters, where you can go on Twitter and find out where the truck is.
00:32:11.000
On Melrose the other day, the whole street was just food trucks lined up and thousands of people everywhere.
00:32:20.000
It's perfect for LA because the Momos are out there with their Twitter.
00:32:30.000
And there's another one that's poppers, toppers?
00:32:41.000
They have them in front of Skinny's on Thursday night.
00:32:45.000
And on the way out, they got these fucking trucks everywhere.
00:32:49.000
I see those Mexican ones, and I don't take the chance.
1.00
00:32:58.000
Sometimes, like there's El Tapatio in the valley.
00:33:00.000
I want to take you there if you want to go get some real Mexican food.
00:33:21.000
They have that big, dirty bowl of pickled jalapenos and carrots just sitting out there.
00:33:27.000
Anybody can just stick their fucking hands in there.
00:33:31.000
Big little plate of jalapenos and radishes and shit like that.
00:33:44.000
They don't make your ass burn like just when you're shitting.
00:33:51.000
All day you're in the bathroom triple wiping because you think you didn't wipe right.
00:33:54.000
You think you have like the second remorse coming out of your muffler.
00:33:56.000
But these new jalapenos, bro, they burn your ass all fucking day.
0.97
00:34:11.000
I have carne asada burritos with fresh jalapenos and I chop them up in there and I chop up like a whole pepper and a half and then in one burrito and it just fucking cleans the whole system out, son.
00:34:25.000
Tears are coming down your eyes, your tongue's on fire, but goddamn your body's like, it gets like a nice jolt.
00:34:31.000
It feels like you're fucking dusting off all the bullshit.
00:34:45.000
I had a piece of mashed meatloaf from last night on white bread, Wonder Bread.
00:34:51.000
With a little ketchup on that motherfucker.
1.00
00:34:55.000
There's a place called Chicks out here in the valley.
00:35:01.000
Anyway, this fucking place has made their own rotisserie.
00:35:16.000
And they got this fucking brisket sandwich, dude.
00:35:21.000
It's a barbecued brisket with mashed potatoes in the sandwich.
00:35:27.000
There's a layer of mashed potatoes and a layer of this mouth-watering brisket, and it's all in together, and, you know, it's a giant-ass...
00:35:41.000
I ate it two days ago, and I've had irregular shits ever since then.
00:35:52.000
I shit green, like fluorescent green today, and the only thing I could think of was the mushrooms.
00:36:06.000
Hulk AIDS. I shroomed for my first time in like seven or eight years.
00:36:23.000
Are you excited about this weekend in New York?
00:36:39.000
And they gave me the rock chest a week when I was there last year.
00:36:42.000
And all of a sudden, I see the UFC is back to this year, so I didn't want to leave for 10 days in a row and ask you.
00:36:49.000
And then I said, fuck it, because I wanted to go back, but I didn't want to go back because it's going to be busy in the next couple of weeks.
00:36:54.000
And it's weird because I was telling you that day, I'm going to visit a buddy of mine, and I wanted to tell you the story, just so you didn't know, in 83, you know, I was a fucked up kid, and I was at a bar one night, and this kid came in, and I knew his whole family, I knew his younger brothers, and this kid had gone to the Air Force Academy, where you had one, you got under the train or something once?
00:37:15.000
And his other brother went to Brown, and we used to go visit his brother.
00:37:18.000
His brother used to be there when Kennedy was on campus.
00:37:23.000
So we would go up there and watch Jackie O come to the campus, and people would throw shit at her and call her, Jackie O, you cunt.
1.00
00:37:29.000
But just to get back to the story, I wanted to get out of Jersey.
00:37:33.000
You know, I wasn't doing the right thing, you know?
00:37:37.000
He's like, you know, I got a place in Colorado if you want to come.
00:37:41.000
And I was like, I'll give you the money for the car.
00:37:45.000
I wanted to rob this drug dealer that used to hide three kilos.
00:37:48.000
They used to deliver three kilos a month to his building and he would hide it in his parking garage.
00:37:54.000
So somebody slipped one night at a party and said that his buddy got three kilos delivered and he didn't want to put the coke in his house.
00:38:02.000
Now at the time, I used to deal with a loan shark all the time.
00:38:05.000
And he wasn't my friend, but I knew him for years.
00:38:11.000
So what I was going to do is rob the drug dealers, give him the five grand I owed him, wait 10 days, and then hit him for 50, and then take off to Colorado and buy a house or whatever I was going to do, right?
00:38:26.000
So you were going to pay him back and then rob him?
00:38:34.000
We used to borrow from him constantly, constantly.
00:38:42.000
So people would come to me and say, bro, I'm in a bind with George.
00:38:47.000
And I would borrow and I'd get a point every week.
00:38:51.000
So altogether, my bill was six grand with him, but it was people that were paying the guy.
00:39:11.000
Some people have a car business and they really, they're in a bind.
00:39:15.000
They're legit people, but they want to buy 10 cars and they don't have the cash on them.
00:39:19.000
Goddamn, could you imagine if there was no banks?
00:39:21.000
How much it would suck if you had to carry all your money around with you?
00:39:28.000
Oh yeah, carry the fucking sack and there I come with a horse and stab me in the fucking bag.
0.84
00:39:33.000
That's when people used to hole up money and dig holes in the dirt and bury shit.
0.99
00:39:38.000
That's why they did it, because they couldn't carry it all.
00:39:44.000
Even when they rip everybody off, God, it would suck if there was no banks.
00:39:51.000
The problem with money is it doesn't really mean anything anymore.
00:39:56.000
It's not like this $100 bill is worth $100 worth of gold.
00:40:08.000
That's why everyone should just spend it as fast as possible.
00:40:13.000
I mean, even if you get to that, I mean, the fact that everybody was into gold.
00:40:16.000
You know, the only thing that makes sense about gold is that I guess it's rare, you know?
00:40:23.000
You can't just, like, say, look, I've got millions of dollars because it's everywhere.
00:40:35.000
I'm telling them, right away you pour reveal with gold.
00:40:44.000
I'm going to set this guy up because I wanted a new life in Colorado.
00:40:49.000
I was going to take that money, pay the loan shark off, wait 10 days and go, hey!
00:40:55.000
He probably gave me $30,000 and I was going to move to Colorado and buy property and whatever the fuck I was into.
00:41:00.000
Why didn't you think he was going to go after you?
00:41:04.000
That's only in the movies, these fucking morons.
00:41:09.000
You know the people you grew up with in Boston.
00:41:11.000
They go to fucking whatever, the fucking pigeon place in Boston in the summer.
0.99
00:41:16.000
And anything out of that area, their comfort zone, they fucking freak, bro.
00:41:20.000
You know, the mob really lost a lot of credibility when Sammy the Bull Gravano got away with everything.
00:41:28.000
I thought for sure he was going to kill that guy, right?
00:41:37.000
That's when you realize, whoa, this is not the organized thing that appears to be on television.
00:41:41.000
Do you know who was going to kill Sammy the Bull?
00:41:43.000
Chicago cops were putting together to murder Sammy the Bull.
00:41:49.000
I had no idea, but they knew that there was a contract out of them, and Chicago cops are going to go down there and blast them.
00:41:56.000
Man, to be a dirty cop, man, you've got to really take a chance.
00:42:00.000
And to get a bunch of other dirty cops together, you've got to assume that you're all going to keep your mouth shut.
00:42:25.000
You know, it's crazy, man, because after a cop is a cop, you know, I can just imagine being, living all your life to protect your country and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, and also one day you actually, to be a cop, you have to have a certain gene.
00:42:37.000
You really have to genuinely help people because it's $30,000 a year.
00:42:46.000
You gotta walk a beat and carry a gun and people shoot at you.
00:42:50.000
You gotta be a cop for years and become a detective and, you know, a first grad.
00:43:05.000
That's why one day they go, what the fuck am I doing?
00:43:10.000
You know, I'm making $38,000 a fucking year, you know, and this guy wants to give me $5,000 so I don't bust his bookmaking operation on the corner.
00:43:21.000
And I guess it's like, hey, we were talking about the other day that you had Andy Dick on, and he said that sometimes when you're doing a bad show and you're so upset with yourself that you resort to doing, you know, you're just not happy with the present condition of your life.
00:43:36.000
And at the end of the day, you go home at 8 in the morning after a 12-hour shift, and you're making 40 fucking grand a year.
00:43:42.000
And people are shooting at you, and you got to be out there in the rain.
00:43:46.000
It's funny, because only on TV are people nice to cops.
00:43:49.000
You know, cops put up with a lot of shit on the other end.
00:43:52.000
You know, people like me, I was a criminal, so I'm always a gentleman to cops.
00:43:59.000
But there's people out there that have a little money or think that bad to the bone.
00:44:02.000
They're like, what are you pulling me over for, bitch?
1.00
00:44:05.000
You're getting a ticket, motherfucker, for opening up like that.
00:44:09.000
Yeah, listen, they're there because there's a lot of people that are fucking crazy.
00:44:13.000
And you need some protection from those people.
00:44:16.000
You need somebody pulling them over when they're weaving in between lanes.
00:44:18.000
You need someone tackling them when they're ready to shoot people in a fucking mall.
00:44:23.000
People that don't think you need cops are crazy.
00:44:27.000
The older I got, and the wiser you get, I give my life to teachers, cops, anybody who's a public servant.
00:44:34.000
You know, all last week we were talking about this fucking mutt, Charlie Sheen, who's basically a fucking rich junkie.
00:44:40.000
If you come down to it that's just sitting there talking shit, do you have the balls to get on a plane right now and go to Japan and help those fucking people?
00:44:52.000
If a doctor did a fucking podcast today and tried to tell you how to stay fucking healthy...
00:45:07.000
Those guys are over in Japan right now picking up fucking...
00:45:11.000
There's kids under there yelling and screaming.
00:45:13.000
They'll see things we wouldn't even imagine seeing in a lifetime.
00:45:16.000
Those guys are going to come back, and next week they'll have another disaster in Venezuela or in Oregon, and those guys will never get, not even a fucking thank you.
00:45:29.000
There's people out there that are just, that's what they live for, you know, and they really believe in it.
00:45:34.000
Bro, the day after that earthquake, think how many people just got on a plane and they just came back from somewhere else.
00:45:55.000
It's either going to be San Francisco, Oregon, to buy us some more time, and then we're fucking next.
00:45:59.000
That's why we need to go to fucking Texas.
0.95
00:46:01.000
When shit goes down, Texas is the best place to live.
00:46:04.000
At least all the guns are going to come out and shit.
00:46:06.000
But think about all that shit last week with these people.
00:46:08.000
Think about what it takes to go over there right now.
00:46:10.000
What are those people getting paid to get on a plane and go help those Japanese people?
00:46:15.000
I turn down $50 fucking gigs if I gotta drive an hour.
00:46:24.000
Right now, what they have to do is figure out how to deal with those nuclear reactors.
00:46:27.000
Yeah, you're walking into a nuclear reactor place to help fucking people.
00:46:31.000
You have no idea who they are, but people in this country give a Frenchman's fuck about that miserable cocksucker Charlie Sheen.
00:46:39.000
I think no one cares about Charlie Sheen anymore.
00:46:49.000
Now you're waiting for the call like blue shit.
00:46:51.000
The mainstream video killed it for me, I think.
00:46:55.000
The first one, when the guy was playing the fart noises, I'm like, whoa, these are the people he's hanging out with?
00:47:05.000
Coke people are these weird, fucking, selfish, indulgent, self-destructive people.
1.00
00:47:14.000
And for the first 10, I did it with people because it was fun.
00:47:19.000
After that, I became this person that was inside.
00:47:25.000
I can't listen to people when they're doing coke.
00:47:27.000
That's why after a while, you can't even take chicks home because all you want them to do is suck your dick.
1.00
00:47:35.000
Well, what everybody likes about this whole Charlie Sheen thing is that this guy is saying, you know, fuck it.
00:47:46.000
And, you know, that he's like got this crazy confidence in everything he's doing.
00:47:52.000
And everybody wants to be able to think like that.
00:47:54.000
Everybody wants to be able to, you know, like people that are struggling and they're going through some shitty job.
00:47:59.000
Like, God damn, how badass would it be to be fucking Charlie Sheen right now?
00:48:02.000
No, it's really funny because you said something to me after the Vegas show.
00:48:05.000
You took me aside and you're like, yeah, Joey, you stand up.
00:48:08.000
I can see you're working on it or whatever the fuck you had to say to me.
00:48:11.000
Well, the coke was doing the same thing to my fucking stand up.
00:48:14.000
Instead of writing jokes, all I used to say was, fuck it.
00:48:23.000
This idiot's buying into some Colombian thing.
1.00
00:48:25.000
Well, I'm not saying he's on the money, but I am saying that if he didn't die this way, what, is he going to live forever and cure cancer?
00:48:33.000
I mean, the only thing that's sad and tragic is his kids are going to miss him.
00:48:59.000
So yeah, Shrooming Man was fucking amazing.
0.96
00:49:03.000
It was to the point where the person I was with, I could see their energy flowing through their skin.
00:49:08.000
And then we went outside and the stars were going crazy.
00:49:23.000
I used to get the diarrhea while I was on the mushrooms.
00:49:29.000
When I lived in Colorado, I'd eat a mushroom and ten minutes later I'm in the shitter trying to figure out how many trees they cut.
00:49:37.000
That seemed like it was so much easier on your stomach.
00:49:47.000
That's the mushroom that they believe is responsible for Christianity.
00:49:51.000
That's that crazy red and white mushroom that looks like Santa Claus.
00:49:56.000
Yeah, it's a psychedelic mushroom, but it's a different sort of a psychedelic.
00:50:03.000
And then Doug and I did it, and the day we did it was the day the war broke out.
00:50:10.000
The day we went to war and we decided to go to this dude Jan's house.
00:50:17.000
Anyway, we go to this kid Jan's house and he lives out in the middle of the desert.
00:50:22.000
Weird fucking town out in like Palmdale area or something, you know?
00:50:25.000
Not there, but one of those towns where you're like, what the fuck?
00:50:30.000
And we get blitzkrieged on mushrooms out there.
00:50:39.000
Doug Stanhope said, the guy goes on, he goes, war coverage begins at five.
00:50:44.000
And Stanhope goes, holy shit, there's a kickoff.
00:50:49.000
And we are shroomed to the gills to the point where everything I see, I shouldn't be social.
00:50:55.000
I should have been alone in the room, closing my eyes, lying on my back.
00:51:00.000
I saw the fabric of the universe as I was walking.
00:51:05.000
In front of me, it was all really intense, complex geometrics.
00:51:09.000
It was like the covering of the walls, like wallpaper or doors or anything, all that stuff became transparent.
00:51:19.000
And you could see literally the structure of the universe through everything.
00:51:28.000
And the fucking war coverage starts, and it was so strange.
00:51:37.000
It's 2000 and whatever the fuck it was back then.
00:51:48.000
It's probably like burnt into your mind because mushrooms with 9-11, that's insane.
00:51:53.000
Because 9-11 was crazy for everybody because that was something they never saw ever.
00:52:15.000
It was an interesting fucking day because, boy, the shit had went down.
00:52:19.000
And we went to Baja Fresh and we had some burritos.
00:52:22.000
And we were just sitting there and shooting the shit and just talking.
00:52:31.000
Speaking of Faberman, he has a new book out, and he's been actually doing the tour, like the morning show tour all around the country and stuff.
00:52:39.000
Yeah, it's a cookbook, and he writes it for camping, like gourmet food while you're camping and stuff, or outside.
00:52:45.000
I have never eaten Faberman's food, but I hear he's a bad motherfucker.
00:52:50.000
This chicken, I don't know what he puts on it, but...
00:52:53.000
It's crazy because I hit a windowpane acid one night when I was a sophomore.
00:53:04.000
So I did it one night and the one guy I was with freaked out.
00:53:08.000
It was a Monday night football game and he goes, bro, I gotta go home.
00:53:14.000
So I went and I go, I know I'll call for a buddy of mine knocking on his door and his dad answers.
00:53:21.000
I'm like, Mr. Bender, come on in and have a soda.
00:53:26.000
So I sit down, and I'm sitting there tripping my ass off, watching fucking Monday Night Football with him.
00:53:33.000
And he's telling me about the stats of the game.
00:53:44.000
John Lennon has just been shot in front of the Dakotas.
00:53:55.000
And I'm thinking about John Lennon getting shot.
00:54:01.000
Oh my God, America, I have a sad former Beatle.
0.96
00:54:06.000
But I'll never forget sitting there thinking to myself...
00:54:09.000
Because when you're tripping, you really can't comprehend the thought.
00:54:14.000
It's like John Lennon got shot and they shoot the other Beatles.
00:54:26.000
And he's like, Brian's playing at his league, but if you want to sit and watch the game.
00:54:30.000
It's weird when you remember when people died, the jolt.
00:54:34.000
What is it about memory that some memories are so much more potent than others?
00:54:46.000
Or you think you remember what the room looked like?
00:54:48.000
I bet it would be a little bit different if you actually saw it in real life.
00:54:51.000
But when people died, like, I remember I was at my girlfriend's house when I was like 18. And the Space Shuttle Challenger blew up.
00:54:57.000
And I watched it blow up on TV. And I didn't realize what had happened while I was flying.
00:55:01.000
I'm not sure if I saw a replay of it or if I saw it live.
00:55:26.000
I mean, is it just we not have enough capacity to remember shit like that all the time?
00:55:30.000
I don't know if it's that or what, because sometimes that kind of shit pops out of nowhere, though.
00:55:37.000
Like, oh my god, I forgot all about that, and all these memories come rushing in out of nowhere.
00:55:42.000
So it almost makes me wonder if there is a drug or something that could just open all the doors.
00:55:47.000
And open all the memory and give you access to all your files.
00:55:50.000
I've been taking this 5-HTP, what is that shit from GNC, where it's supposed to be pumping more serotonin and stuff like that.
00:55:59.000
I've been only taking it for a week, but immediately I already find my mind working better in memory.
00:56:07.000
Of course, there's other reasons too, probably.
00:56:10.000
Well, you know, Chris and I are coming up with a supplement line.
00:56:17.000
And we're going to have pills where it's all of the best vitamins for mental function.
00:56:30.000
I take a bunch of different stuff, but that's not one of them.
00:56:32.000
I'll tell you what exercises me is when I really write about a situation.
00:56:36.000
When I sit down and I go, okay, today I'm going to write about the time I tried out for freshman football.
00:56:42.000
And even though I have no fucking idea about it.
00:56:49.000
Everything in that genre that maybe had to do with it.
00:57:02.000
Whenever I hear Van Morrison, Marvelous Night for a Moon Dance, that was like his song.
00:57:07.000
These diners in New York, a lot of them are open 24 hours a day.
00:57:10.000
And they have this thing here like this that you spin around a little vacation.
00:57:12.000
Yeah, and they had the fucking thing where you could pick the songs to listen to.
00:57:15.000
And you put a couple quarters in there and you could play songs at your table.
00:57:18.000
Yeah, you have like little shitty tinny speakers.
00:57:21.000
And we'd be eating cheeseburger deluxes at 3 o'clock in the morning after playing pool.
00:57:30.000
I was in Germany in the hotel, and it's playing in the lobby.
00:57:44.000
When some of the people yell out at a show, I've had that a bunch of times.
00:57:48.000
Especially when I was doing the Q&A, which I haven't been doing recently.
00:57:51.000
Because I'm trying to do more like a tighter, hard hour set.
00:58:08.000
Like these hour and a half sets that I'm doing, two hour sets, and a lot of it is just Q&A. Some people like it, but some people feel obligated to stick around.
00:58:16.000
Like it's just like it's too much attention that you're asking from.
00:58:19.000
Tell them your show's over and then do the Q&A. Maybe.
00:58:22.000
I'm going to figure out another way to do Q&A. Maybe do a night where it's just Q&A. Make it real cheap just to pay for the room.
00:58:31.000
And make it so that one night maybe there's not a stand-up show, it's a Q&A show.
00:58:38.000
But anyway, my point is, when people yell out shit, yell out, do this bit, do Noah's Ark or something like that, man...
00:58:48.000
But if I go back and try to figure out how to do it now, I'll fuck it up.
00:58:59.000
I can't believe I remembered it because that was the first time I had done it in years.
00:59:04.000
I was like, wow, I don't even know if I can do this.
00:59:08.000
But that was a mistake in Vegas, too, to do a Q&A in front of 2,000 fucking people.
00:59:16.000
If I was going to do something like that, it had to do with microphones.
00:59:18.000
Have a little line like we did in Columbus when we did the DVD. When is UFC coming back to Columbus?
00:59:25.000
I mean, maybe in the future, but we just did Strike Force.
00:59:27.000
They did Strike Force, did the last Columbus show.
00:59:34.000
That was always a cool weekend when you had the Arnold show.
00:59:46.000
The theater that we filmed the special in, Mae West used to perform there.
01:00:14.000
There must have been so much chicanery going on back then.
1.00
01:00:25.000
I like how you threw out words like an African.
01:00:41.000
Yeah, but that's way different in the vocabulary than I... But Joey, do you know what that word was?
01:00:50.000
Yeah, I remember what the fuck I was trying to say.
01:00:54.000
We're trying to say about how hard it was, and it's so weird because if you talk to people from them, like even if Hollywood was different then, they'd move you out here, and you'd give you a paycheck.
01:01:03.000
And you'd suck everyone's dick, and then they'd give you a script and a loaf of bread.
0.90
01:01:12.000
All those guys that you see from the 60s and 50s that were here, they all lived in Burbank.
01:01:17.000
Burbank, all those houses that look the same and shit.
01:01:19.000
You remember all those movies about, like, JFK? Like, they always have those blondes that were with JFK that were, like, sort of semi-disposable.
0.92
01:01:28.000
They would always be, like, hanging around, but they never really addressed them.
01:01:38.000
The people that did stick, all the other people said, look, they stuck.
01:01:45.000
And they get sucked into the system and wind up being one of those little quiet girls in JFK's arm.
01:01:58.000
This is the place where you go to maximize how many people who know who you are.
01:02:07.000
You gotta suck a little dick and do something where people pay attention to you on the internet, like Kim Kardashian.
01:02:12.000
But basically, she started out blowing her boyfriend and fucking him on the internet in videos.
1.00
01:02:28.000
I was in Australia, and there was a fucking billboard with Kim Kardashian on it in Australia.
01:02:39.000
She's not an American land opportunity, dog.
0.92
01:02:42.000
But it's fascinating that this is the spot where all this goes down.
01:02:46.000
This is the spot where everybody comes to make something happen comes to get some attention There's a lot of people that fall through the cracks, you know, there's a lot of victims in this fucking town So how many people have come and gone since you've been a lot?
01:03:01.000
Yeah, those are creepy What the fuck happened to that guy cuz I forget about half the people I moved to upstate New York Remember Lazlo He used to hang out at the comedy store all the time a long time ago.
01:03:22.000
I don't remember what he looked like, but I remember the name.
01:03:24.000
What was the talent coordinator when we first got to the store?
01:03:33.000
You know how many people have come and gone that had big plans and deals and I got 19 scripts and I met with Pacino last week.
01:03:47.000
I got an email last week on my regular email from some dude and I call him back and I'm like, "Hey, how you doing?" He was my first manager.
01:03:54.000
And he was a filthy, his family was filthy rich, and he went back to sell real estate.
01:03:59.000
He's like, hey man, I'm just calling you because I'm opening up comedy clubs again.
01:04:05.000
But it's amazing that I forgot all about that fucking dude.
01:04:11.000
Yeah, some people just decide it's not for them.
01:04:15.000
That we were friends with, that one day disappeared.
01:04:25.000
People that came to the store and said, I got a script I just sold, and you got, boom, a year later, they're like, oh no, I'm doing radio in Wisconsin.
01:04:36.000
It's amazing how many people come and go through here and get spit up.
01:04:46.000
When I started out in 1994, Mike Ricca was a funny fucking comic.
01:04:52.000
When I saw Mike Ricca at the store, I remember thinking, we were probably around the same age or something, and I remember thinking, this fucking guy's going to be huge.
01:05:05.000
When I went to the store, there was an article that was framed in the lobby, like a little article about Mike Ricca.
01:05:13.000
But for whatever fucking reason, the pieces don't fall in the right order.
01:05:22.000
Chelsea Handler was up there with us from day one.
01:05:25.000
She's going gangbusters now, that crazy bitch.
1.00
01:05:28.000
She's got like sitcoms and she's got her own fucking show, like a reality show about her show.
01:05:34.000
So she's got her show and then she's got a reality show about herself.
01:05:42.000
You know who I heard was on that reality show about Chelsea?
1.00
01:05:52.000
Remember the assistant that used to always drive us around for the comedy works?
01:05:56.000
Yeah, I do remember, but why am I blanking on her name?
01:06:08.000
Yeah, you know, I'm always happy when someone figures out a way to make it through the crazy net, like the salmon ladder or whatever the fuck it is, to get to the top.
01:06:21.000
The people that I thought were going to be fucking stars...
01:06:26.000
You know, I would have never guessed that Dane Cook would have hit the way he hit.
01:06:33.000
Dude, you knew that he was going to get that big?
01:06:35.000
I knew it by one conversation we had after he went to the lap stop.
01:06:39.000
In front of the lap factory, I said to him, what did you think of the lap stop?
01:06:42.000
And he goes, bro, it was good, but it was too much fucking work.
01:06:46.000
I got to figure out how to narrow it into one night.
01:06:59.000
So you knew he was going to be that huge, though?
01:07:05.000
I didn't know he was going to sell out Madison Square Garden.
01:07:11.000
You know, he's the first guy that ever figured out how to really connect with people over the internet.
01:07:15.000
You know, that guy's still, to this day, he's constantly answering emails, constantly connecting with people, uses that say now thing, gets on that, gets on Twitter.
01:07:23.000
That's why there's Facebook for people to connect with these guys.
01:07:28.000
I mean, we started out this podcast, Brian and I were just sitting in front of a laptop with fucking snow falling.
01:07:45.000
In this economy and what's going on right now, you could do stand-up all the time, but you need to open up different doors for yourself, and this is where this comes in, the podcast.
01:08:00.000
It comes in for all these other people that don't have people like us around them.
01:08:03.000
It sounds arrogant, but there's a lot of people out there that live in shitty neighborhoods, and they have dumb friends, and they don't have anybody to really connect with, where they feel like these people are also growing along with them, like they're all growing together.
01:08:19.000
So this podcast gives them an alternative way to look at things.
01:08:23.000
It gives them a way to see how all of us in our own lives are overcoming adversity and dealing with situations and being honest about ourselves and honest about our friends and honest about life.
01:08:33.000
And that inspires an ethic and that inspires other people to be like-minded.
01:08:40.000
It doesn't just help fill comedy clubs and get people to buy your book or get people to come see you in Rochester.
01:08:51.000
When I really got into this and when I came on your podcast, and as you know, people always ask me when I'm going to come on your podcast.
01:09:00.000
If you've noticed on the road, I don't show up to radio.
01:09:07.000
And that's what the Podcast Avenue has done for all of us.
01:09:10.000
That's why there's people who come here and do well on your podcast.
01:09:13.000
And there's people who come up here and want to sell jokes and a date.
01:09:18.000
I came up here to open up about what's on my mind today or weekly.
01:09:27.000
And I got to go into a joke like Comics Unleashed.
01:09:32.000
I want to talk about the Lone Shark I owned if I was going to beat.
01:09:38.000
That's why I hate going down there with these fucking fake MCs that try to be funny.
0.98
01:09:44.000
When was the last time I came here and fucking a lead-in?
01:09:53.000
People come up and they try to force the funny and the podcast don't work.
01:09:58.000
And on the other end of it, I get emails and Twitter messages and Facebook messages from some really fucking cool people.
01:10:07.000
You get something out of it when you connect with them.
01:10:14.000
And the nicest guy in the world, Mike Maxwell, art.com, he drew a picture of Charles Bronson for me.
01:10:21.000
This is fucking beautiful with him with his hat.
01:10:30.000
And it was just great to connect with somebody.
01:10:32.000
I mean, listen, there's good and bad on Twitter and whatever it is.
01:10:37.000
But deep down inside, especially with the podcast, I've always tried to put myself in this way.
01:10:41.000
So if you don't like people mugging fucking faggots, don't listen to me and don't come to my fucking show.
1.00
01:10:50.000
And a lot of people like the honesty and they come out and you know what?
01:10:54.000
I don't like smoking dope with everybody because next thing you know, you're out of your mind on the way home.
01:10:59.000
You smoke 80 joints if you smoke with everybody.
01:11:03.000
This is part of this fucking business, you know?
01:11:06.000
The connection between human beings is becoming more and more It's like you have a network of people that you interact with now, and you can just develop a really cool network and only be around really cool people for the most part.
01:11:24.000
I've got like 280-something thousand people on there now.
01:11:30.000
It's very rare that someone will say something douchey to me on Twitter.
01:11:36.000
It's really simple, and then you don't have to deal with that guy anymore.
01:11:39.000
And then you're nice to everybody, and they're nice to you, and you try to fucking, you know, have a little exchange.
01:11:44.000
Every day people are sending me cool shit on Twitter.
01:11:46.000
Every day some new fucking thing on the earthquake, or a new, you know, video of a tsunami, or a new, you know, crazy monkey that they found in Liberia, or whatever, you know what I mean?
01:11:56.000
It's like every day there's some new fascinating shit.
01:12:01.000
There's never been a time where you had so much access to interesting people and information and ideas.
01:12:07.000
You know, when we were kids and we liked the band, there was none of this.
01:12:10.000
We knew them from the album covers and the sleeve of an album.
01:12:13.000
And when we paid for their tickets or an interview on television, nobody ever got this personal and this down and dirty with people.
01:12:27.000
I don't want to be a fucking fake comedy guy, dog.
01:12:33.000
We're up here talking about what's in my heart and what's in my...
01:12:35.000
By the way, I was thinking of you guys today, not in a sexual way.
01:12:39.000
But this morning, I had to take a nap because I got home late last night.
01:12:44.000
When I was in bed, I got erotic, and I wanted to bang one out.
01:12:47.000
So I banged one out, but it was on my bed, so I couldn't come because then my wife would know that I came on my side of the bed.
1.00
01:12:52.000
So I'm like, what am I going to wipe this with?
01:12:54.000
I went into pigeon pose, and I took the sock off because I always hold the top of the egg roll.
01:13:04.000
You hold the top of the turtleneck so it doesn't blow up like a volcano.
01:13:10.000
I threw the sock on the floor and I woke up and I went to put it on.
01:13:14.000
I had to take a fucking shower and shit like a pig.
01:13:18.000
Both of you that put on a sock would come on it.
01:13:21.000
Yeah, so you pinch it too, like at the top and keep it like a little pool, like a kiddie pool?
01:13:33.000
You didn't know, he's been talking about being uncircumcised for a decade.
01:13:44.000
Have you ever thought about maybe getting it now?
01:13:51.000
I'm thinking about getting my dick cut at 50. What the fuck is wrong with you, Brian?
01:13:57.000
It's supposed to feel better when you have the skin over it.
01:14:00.000
If I had a boy, bro, I would absolutely not have him cut.
01:14:14.000
When my dick is swollen, listen, they're not going to see my dick when it's dead.
01:14:17.000
They're going to see it in full effect and you just pull the skin back and all they see is the helmet anyway.
01:14:26.000
But she used to hang out with one of the girls at the comedy store and she was having a dilemma because she was dating a guy that for the first time was uncircumcised and she didn't like the way it felt in her mouth.
01:14:37.000
She was drinking and she was telling everybody, I really like them, but it feels like skin in my mouth.
01:14:44.000
It probably feels like those little rubber things, those things that you try to hold but you can't hold it.
01:14:49.000
It's like a little rubber thing filled with water.
01:14:57.000
So you really would cut your dick just so girls would like it?
0.98
01:15:09.000
That's exactly what your dick looks like with a condom on it.
01:15:20.000
You have disease if you're a filthy motherfucker, if you fuck a chicken and wash your face.
1.00
01:15:25.000
You know, that's what that song Evil Boy is about.
01:15:28.000
Evil Boy's about, they want to, like, there's a tradition, when they become a man, they go and circumcise him with a fucking rusty knife out in the woods.
01:15:35.000
That's why he was like, you know, my dick's only for penis.
01:15:54.000
It's a good goddamn song, but it's about the traditions of cutting people's skins off their dick.
01:16:00.000
Did you notice, like, throughout that song, there's a lot of references to South Park?
01:16:21.000
I thought she was talking about someone she knew.
01:16:27.000
Kids growing up in South Africa getting some South Park influence.
01:16:39.000
It's been on for this many years and it's still good.
01:16:47.000
I like Family Guy from time to time, but I won't sit there.
01:16:52.000
You like Family Guy, but you won't watch South Park?
01:17:17.000
We're talking to a guy who smokes pot all day and plays with his cat.
01:17:19.000
He's talking about like he's a Navy SEAL with a knife in his mouth crawling through the desert.
01:17:25.000
I don't even know how to play fucking cards, okay?
01:17:35.000
But I've never been a cartoon guy like Popeye, dog.
01:17:38.000
Once you're 18, you know, we grow up eventually.
01:17:45.000
It's a fucking man's world, like James Brown said.
01:17:48.000
That's why I'm happy about going to New York in the next four days.
01:17:51.000
I'm going to hang out with men for a couple of fucking days.
01:17:57.000
I'm going to go hang out with my buddies that I grew up with for a couple of days, dog.
01:18:02.000
You really realize it once you've lived here for a few years.
01:18:05.000
After a while you get comfortable with wherever the fuck you are, but there's a different thing over there.
01:18:09.000
There's just as many douchebags over here as over there, but they pretend to be nicer over here.
1.00
01:18:14.000
Listen, bro, I got my people that I've known since I was a fucking kid that was in trouble.
01:18:18.000
Those are the still people I hang out with 40 years later.
01:18:22.000
What do you think it is, though, about people over there where there's, you know, everybody always uses the cliche, oh, they're real.
01:18:34.000
I got fake motherfucking friends here, and I got motherfuckers who get stabbed for me here too.
1.00
01:18:40.000
Right, but don't you think the percentage is higher in New York of real people?
01:18:46.000
I think there's more real people in the East Coast than there are here.
01:18:50.000
I think there's a lot of silly fucks out here.
1.00
01:18:52.000
I think the fucking goofy fucks come out here from the East Coast.
01:18:57.000
Yeah, but I mean, there's a lot of real people here, too.
01:19:06.000
No, there's plenty of real people on the West Coast, too.
01:19:11.000
There's tons of little cunts in Manhattan.
1.00
01:19:16.000
Little young kids drinking water, drinking five-hour energy.
01:19:24.000
I think if you add it all up, there's still more real- Oh, no, no.
01:19:31.000
They were there for me when I needed them the most, and they're still fucking there.
01:19:35.000
I'm going home for five days to smoke some dope.
01:19:41.000
They got an ounce of earthquake and an ounce of fucking moon rocks over there.
01:19:47.000
I got a Sativa now at the fucking NOCC. They got a sour diesel that's so fucking strong, God.
01:19:57.000
Are you worried at all about all this shit that's happening?
01:20:00.000
Are you worried at all about all these fucking people in the Middle East that are trying to overthrow their government?
01:20:04.000
All these different countries that are fighting off revolts.
01:20:23.000
We might not be able to drink the water ever again.
01:20:31.000
We're going to have to all drink bottled water?
01:20:32.000
Half of the ocean is contaminated with the oil.
01:20:36.000
You should just have a room where you just get a couple extra bottles like Arrowhead every week.
01:20:43.000
If something really bad happens, you've got to get the fuck out of here.
01:20:49.000
The reality is California is massively overpopulated.
01:20:54.000
And everyone is hoping that that fucking music doesn't stop on their watch.
01:20:57.000
They're hoping that somehow or another they're, you know, safely in the backyard, not near any trees when the shit hits the fan.
01:21:06.000
Well, nothing's happened since 94. Yeah, but if you look over the course of human history, 94 is a blink of an eye.
01:21:11.000
If you look over the course of the history of the world, it's not even that.
01:21:15.000
There's a lot of shit that's going to happen to this place.
01:21:19.000
When you look out the window and you see those mountains, those weren't made with a mold.
01:21:25.000
That's the lava and the fucking ground moving and...
01:21:31.000
There's a reason why it's 12,000 fucking feet above sea level.
01:21:35.000
That shit rocketed over the course of who knows how long.
01:21:40.000
We know that the entire Earth supposedly had one continent.
01:21:45.000
That there was one continent and they split up because of all sorts of different events and became Africa and North America and...
01:21:52.000
We just threw off a rotation a little bit from that last earthquake, so what the fuck's that gonna happen?
01:22:02.000
Dude, there's a divide somewhere out there, they said, that's 270 miles long and 50 miles wide, where the actual epicenter of the earthquake was.
01:22:11.000
What happened was, beyond our comprehension, and yet still nothing in comparison to shit that's happened before.
01:22:18.000
You know, they still don't know what the fuck stopped the Ice Age.
01:22:21.000
You know, the Ice Age was just 10,000 years ago, which is nothing.
01:22:25.000
10,000 years ago, most of North America was under a mile-high sheet of ice.
01:22:33.000
All the fucking North Dakota, South, that shit was a mile-high of ice.
01:22:38.000
Woolly mammoths were running around, saber-toothed tigers and shit.
01:22:42.000
It was a totally different world, just 10,000 years ago.
01:22:46.000
That ain't global warming because of humans.
0.98
01:22:50.000
What caused that radical change in the atmosphere?
01:22:54.000
What if it just keeps on getting hotter and hotter and it turns into a sun and the sun was like the last earth?
01:23:02.000
This is like shit that you would say when you were 14 before you even went to any science classes.
01:23:09.000
What if the earth becomes like a person and says, hey, stop polluting my water, man?
01:23:13.000
It doesn't take a fucking genius to tell you that the earth, the next one is either here or Seattle.
01:23:20.000
It doesn't take a fucking genius to tell you that.
01:23:26.000
All you bitches with iPhones, you better make sure that shit hooks up.
1.00
01:23:29.000
Let's see if you got an app for your fucking earthquake.
01:23:40.000
When it's going to be here, like 10 minutes before, call me, all right?
01:23:46.000
You just need to get a dog and sit really close to him.
01:23:52.000
Do we live like survivalists and move to the fucking Mojave and buy space in one of those underground bunkers that you can...
01:23:59.000
You want to probably go to the middle of the country.
01:24:05.000
Well, what if that's where the fucking asteroid hits?
01:24:09.000
One thing about Texas is you know they're going to go down swinging.
01:24:19.000
I would totally be down with Texas if they could just do something about their fucking weed laws.
1.00
01:24:43.000
The reason why people grow sativas is because there's a bunch of people here who are connoisseurs and that's what they want.
01:24:49.000
But the people that are just looking to make money, it takes more time to grow sativas than it does indica.
01:24:56.000
Yeah, I know, but there's weed snobs in Texas.
1.00
01:24:58.000
I'm sure there are, dude, but it ain't that easy to find.
01:25:01.000
But can I get up at 7.30 in the morning and go buy a bag of dope with an attorney and a construction worker and eat a bagel?
01:25:09.000
As long as nobody else has this, I'm going to wait it out.
01:25:13.000
No, you're wrong, Brian, because you've got to deal with drug dealers.
01:25:16.000
You've got to deal with people that are willing to go to jail because they're selling weed, and that's the reality of the situation.
01:25:20.000
But that's what we've been doing for the last 30 years.
01:25:26.000
Yeah, but it ain't as good as what we've got now.
01:25:29.000
If you want to live in Texas, you can live in Texas and get the good weed you're getting now.
01:25:35.000
I could care less about where the fuck I live to control the weed.
0.83
01:25:47.000
Listen, buddy, you want to make a quick thousand bucks?
01:25:50.000
You take him to his body and you put him on a Greyhound bus.
0.58
01:25:53.000
I used to grow in my closet in Ohio, and it fucking was great.
01:25:59.000
I've always been a real motherfucking head since day one, guys.
01:26:04.000
So the people I ran with were real heads, and we attract each other.
01:26:07.000
When I lived in Colorado, that's some of the wildest fucking weed I got in Aspen in that high altitude in Boulder.
01:26:12.000
But the people I ran with were heads, people who understand that concept.
01:26:16.000
Yeah, like-minded people will find like-minded people.
01:26:18.000
Like, when I find people, I can tell when somebody's a professional, I can tell a fucking amateur.
01:26:22.000
And when you run into a fucking professional pot smoker, just the look is as good as a wink to a blind horse.
01:26:28.000
A real weed guy will pull you over like I did with that dude.
1.00
01:26:32.000
I didn't know him, but that's a nigger that I fucking am.
01:26:37.000
This man looked at me like I was a fucking genie.
01:26:39.000
He's like, how'd you know I left it on the dresser?
01:26:42.000
Right there, I went in my pot and gave him a butter weed.
01:26:45.000
Ryan would say, did you take this out of your balls?
01:26:53.000
You'd say, I can't believe it came out of your balls.
01:26:55.000
No, a professional pot smoker or look at that butt in Ohio and go, You're a bad motherfucker, Doug.
01:27:12.000
If you pull the butt out of your balls, I've been like, no, I'll be home in five hours.
01:27:16.000
You smoked weed for me before that was in my nuts, and so have you.
01:27:25.000
Could you imagine Joey coming up to you and go, Hey guys, I got some weed in my balls.
01:27:34.000
When you're at a fucking airport and you're waiting out line, and you're a professional and you left your weed at home, and you've been waiting for fucking three hours, and all of a sudden, trust me, bro, a professional weed guy never lets you leave their house without weed.
01:27:46.000
There's things professionals do, dog, that they know.
01:27:49.000
You call a professional at two in the morning and go, dog, I can't sleep.
01:27:52.000
They'll say, come over here and get high with you.
0.81
01:28:17.000
But I still like getting high at night, like sometimes at night, just to sizzle it.
01:28:30.000
I mean, I do write sober sometimes, especially when I wake up in the morning.
01:28:32.000
A lot of times I do revisions on things, and I like to review it from a bunch of different states.
01:28:36.000
But when I write high, man, it's like there's a symphony playing in my mind.
01:28:41.000
It's like there's music, and music comes through these words, and there's lights, and there's dancing going on in my head.
01:28:48.000
When I'm high, there's a lot of shit happening.
01:28:49.000
When I'm sober, I'm slowly piecing it together.
01:28:53.000
It's like the difference between typing with your fingers, when you don't know how to type, when you're just using your index finger and you're going, T. H. And when you can type when you don't even have to look.
01:29:12.000
It's like it connects you to whatever the fuck it is.
01:29:15.000
Whatever it is that makes you creative, it connects you to it better.
01:29:22.000
When I write the one-man show, I like to be a little on the straight side.
01:29:30.000
This is from the time I came from Cuba to me finding my money.
01:29:37.000
I got a producer to put some money up and do it in Hollywood nice.
01:29:46.000
I'm going to do it at this theater in Lancashire, just for 40 people.
01:29:50.000
Just to get the writing down and have people make notes and say, Joey, I like this.
01:30:09.000
And that's what I do when I'm having a hard time writing comedy.
01:30:12.000
I write the one-man show, and I get myself in a different state.
01:30:24.000
Dude, there's another quake that just hit Chile.
01:30:33.000
And I got a thing yesterday that said that some guy predicted from some weather thing that it was going to either be on the 16th or the 17th.
01:30:45.000
He said another earthquake was definitely going to happen on the 16th.
01:30:50.000
This thing in Japan with this nuclear reactor is freaking me out.
01:30:58.000
They didn't know what to do if the power went off.
01:31:02.000
They had eight hours of backup and then it starts a meltdown because they can't cool the rods.
01:31:09.000
So they're pumping ocean water onto the rods to try to cool them off.
01:31:13.000
I can't believe that this is how they design these things.
01:31:17.000
You're living in a place where earthquakes happen all the time.
01:31:20.000
Now if an earthquake happens and the power goes out and something goes wrong, you don't have a way to cool this fucking thing.
01:31:30.000
It's keeping it from fucking exploding and blowing a hole through the earth.
01:31:35.000
What they're doing right now is real dangerous because all this shit is going to get into the atmosphere.
01:31:43.000
I mean, unless they're going to figure out a way to drop some sort of a gigantic dome over the whole area and seal it off.
01:31:51.000
How the fuck are they going to stop this radiation from getting out into the atmosphere?
01:31:55.000
What's the worst case scenario you're looking at?
01:31:59.000
See, they tried to downplay it at first, saying that it's going to be fine.
01:32:02.000
But now, on CNN, there's a new official report.
01:32:06.000
This guy says that spent fuel rods are exposed, and this heightens concerns.
01:32:10.000
So spent fuel rods in the uniform of Japan's stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant have been exposed, resulting in the emission of extremely high levels of radiation.
01:32:22.000
The head of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission said on Wednesday, this is fucking dangerous shit, man.
01:32:27.000
And what's scary is we have these things all over the place.
01:32:51.000
You know what's sad about Japan is that they have that place called Okinawa where it's beautiful and it's the place on the earth where the people live the longest.
01:33:01.000
That's where that coral calcium fad came from, right?
01:33:09.000
It just kills me that that's the end of that fucking party.
01:33:25.000
And it's better than coal because coal totally fucks up the atmosphere and creates...
01:33:31.000
But man, when nuclear goes bad, it fucking really goes bad.
01:33:39.000
With nuclear power, you're harnessing the very power, the very thing that makes suns.
01:33:49.000
You're dealing with shit that we don't totally have control over yet.
01:33:56.000
But the bottom line about nuclear power is, no matter what you do, you've got nuclear waste.
01:34:01.000
And you've got nuclear waste that's going to be around forever!
01:34:09.000
There's always disputes and debates about where to put this shit.
01:34:13.000
That's one of the reasons why Nevada got gambling.
01:34:18.000
They let them blow bombs off in the fucking desert.
01:34:26.000
When you get a bunch of million people like we have in L.A., 20 million people, well, fuck, man.
01:34:36.000
You got a lot of trucks that have to drop off that gas.
01:34:40.000
Imagine people start leaving here if something bad does happen.
01:34:51.000
It would take days of bumper-to-bumper traffic to clear out LA. Days and days and days.
01:35:14.000
This seems like a weird thing that's happening.
01:35:16.000
Because every day, things just keep getting weirder and weirder.
01:35:28.000
And then as all this is going on, earthquake in Chile, earthquake in New Zealand, floods in Australia.
01:35:56.000
Joey Diaz is going to be in New York this weekend.
01:35:59.000
Tell them what you were saying the other day about Northridge.
01:36:05.000
Every point is 100% stronger than the preceding point.
01:36:17.000
Now, the crazy one is the one in Alaska, apparently, that happened in the 60s, I think it was.
01:36:25.000
So a 9.1, 100% stronger than the one in Japan, and it is 100% stronger than that!
01:36:35.000
9.2 for four fucking minutes, that shit rocked.
0.96
01:36:41.000
If right now, what happened in Japan, if you were home tonight, and a 5.3 earthquake, you'd think it's the end.
01:36:47.000
Just when your thing starts shaking, I'd just drop my fucking, I'd just get to my hands and knees and say a prayer.
01:36:56.000
Think about those people in Chile, what they were thinking.
01:36:59.000
Again, they just got hit a year and a half ago, not even.
01:37:03.000
And you know, guys, the reality is that this is not the big concern.
01:37:06.000
This is one small minor thing that you can avoid by not living on a fault line.
01:37:10.000
The real concern is super volcanoes and asteroids.
01:37:15.000
Because there's hundreds of thousands of rocks out there in space that can fuck up everything.
01:37:22.000
They're flying around and every now and then they collide with one another and one of them gets hurled towards Earth and it slams in and that's a wrap.
01:37:32.000
That's a wrap for this developmental cycle of biological matter.
01:37:41.000
A few mice and rats are going to be picking off decaying flesh and surviving on cannibalism until they slowly evolve over billions and billions of years.
01:37:48.000
And that's why you want to live in New York or Washington, D.C. or L.A. because the asteroid, if that really hit one of those places, that would be too cheesy, you know?
01:37:58.000
An asteroid wouldn't hit L.A. because it's too cheesy?
01:38:04.000
Even one, like the one in Nevada where you can go visit, that crater, that crater wasn't that long ago.
01:38:15.000
When that fucking thing hit, man, it probably killed everything within miles and miles.
01:38:20.000
You know, it's a half a mile long the crater, I think, or a mile maybe.
01:38:25.000
I mean, that thing must have killed so many fucking people or so many things, whatever was near it.
01:38:30.000
And when you think about something like that landing right in the middle of L.A., like right in the middle of downtown.
01:38:37.000
Just a half a mile wide crater right where downtown LA used to be.
01:39:00.000
I mean, probably in San Francisco, people would be dead.
01:39:09.000
My wife said to me, Joe, if something ever happened, it would take me three hours to walk home from work.
01:39:24.000
Right, and the problem is three hours, if she gets off work at six, then you're dealing with creepy shit at night.
01:39:29.000
You know, you're walking home at night, and who knows what the fuck is happening by the time these three hours are up, where total chaos is set in.
01:39:36.000
Would you walk on, and she goes, I would just stay right on the fucking highway, right on the 101 or something, I don't know.
01:39:42.000
These concerns didn't even enter into people's heads just weeks ago.
01:39:47.000
Weeks ago, people were, like, immune to it all, you know?
01:39:50.000
Now it's, like, slowly letting us know it's on its way, stupid.
01:39:54.000
Yeah, I was in whatever, the Magic Club, the other, you know, wherever, what's that place called?
01:40:02.000
Just going to Hermosa was kind of weird, because I just got done watching all this Japan shit, and then being by the ocean, just kind of like, oh, that's the stuff.
0.95
01:40:15.000
There was a photographer that was taking pictures in front of a crowd of people and just got sucked in Northern California.
01:40:29.000
When that tide comes in, did you see some of those waves?
01:40:43.000
But this poor fuck was taking pictures in front of a bunch of people.
1.00
01:40:46.000
Now, last week, supposedly, before the earthquake, a bunch of fish were dead.
01:41:06.000
Do you think it had something to do with the earthquake?
01:41:10.000
Well, they said that they died because of the lack of oxygen, and then they said that there's some sort of a toxin in the water.
01:41:19.000
They don't get the full results of what happened.
01:41:21.000
But what's really spooky is the same thing is happening in Mexico.
0.77
01:41:24.000
In Acapulco, there's photos of all these fish that are on the surface of the water.
01:41:29.000
It's all sardines and some mackerel, and there's millions of them, and they're on the surface of the fucking water, and they can't figure out why.
01:41:35.000
But people are driving up in boats, and they're scooping up these fish in buckets, and the fish can't go anywhere.
01:41:40.000
They're literally stuck to the surface of the water.
01:41:44.000
If there's no oxygen, they're trying to snap out the air to get oxygen into their body somehow.
01:41:49.000
No one knows exactly why they're at the surface of the water.
01:41:52.000
But people are just scooping them up in buckets.
01:41:55.000
So this is basically sort of similar to what happened in Redondo.
01:41:58.000
Something is happening to giant schools of fish and they don't know why.
01:42:01.000
And they're thinking that, you know, in the Redondo, like I said, they think it's some sort of a poison, but they don't have any idea why or what.
01:42:07.000
It's probably some kind of weird terrorist act thing.
01:42:09.000
Could you imagine it was some crazy Christian motherfucker?
1.00
01:42:14.000
I'll poison the water just to get their attention.
01:42:46.000
And not only that, even if it wasn't the Bible, the Bible is just a translation of ancient Hebrew, which nobody really totally understands.
01:42:53.000
Ancient Hebrew, to this day, they don't know all the words.
01:43:01.000
So when you translate that shit to Latin, and you translate it to Greek, and then to English...
01:43:07.000
Who knows what the fuck it really said in the first part?
01:43:09.000
You're not going to get May 21st out of it, dude.
01:43:13.000
And even if it did, do you really think they were right?
01:43:21.000
He just could be a crackpot, but this motherfucker's buying billboards everywhere.
01:43:30.000
Dude, retards are everywhere, and they want to believe.
1.00
01:43:37.000
But there's a lot of people that follow Alex that might as well be following this guy.
01:43:42.000
I mean, they just picked something to get obsessed with.
01:43:45.000
Whether it's the Mayan calendar in 2012, or it's fucking the Jesus apocalypse, or whether it's UFOs, it's all the same mentality to get these motherfuckers obsessed with these things.
01:43:59.000
I'm not attached or married, I try not to be at least, to almost everything that I think.
01:44:09.000
And the thing about the Mayan calendar is, I think what the Mayans did, and I got this mostly from going to Chichen Itza and talking to this guy who was a professor, who was our guide, who was really an interesting guy.
01:44:27.000
Yeah, and he loved the fact that I knew so much about the Mayan civilization.
01:44:32.000
So he was an individual guy, like you hire him, you know, for the tour.
01:44:36.000
So he was like really into it because the guy loved the culture, man.
01:44:39.000
He was really obsessed with it and obsessed with the fact that there's this incredible society that basically just vanished.
01:44:45.000
I mean, these guys created some incredible works of architecture, these incredible designs, incredibly intricate calendars, and really these psychedelic languages of images and shit like that.
01:44:56.000
I mean, the way they form sentences, it was very fascinating stuff.
01:45:01.000
And then on top of that, there was all this evidence of a massive deterioration of their society, like a human sacrifice and that kind of shit.
01:45:13.000
But I never believed that they had it wired, that they knew that December 21st, 2012, the end of the cycle.
01:45:18.000
They don't even think that it's the end of the world.
01:45:20.000
No one in the Mayan calendars would say the world ends December 21st.
01:45:32.000
It could be an astrological or an astronomical cycle where, you know, something in the cosmos aligns in a different way.
01:45:39.000
I mean, we know when the moon is closer to us or the moon is further away, it reacts.
01:45:45.000
You know, if there's some other astronomical body that – or cosmic body that when it lines up with us, its gravity affects us in a certain way.
01:45:53.000
And it changes some certain things about people or ushers in some new understanding or new appreciation or some new sort of a natural disaster that makes us sort of rethink the way we communicate.
01:46:03.000
Whether it's with cell towers or whether it's with satellites.
01:46:06.000
You know, these satellites get burnt out so we have to figure out a way to reinvent the whole idea of mass communication.
01:46:12.000
That could be the reasons why these things, why it's thought of that a new age is coming, you know, and that the Mayans predicted it because they predicted there would be a new atmosphere on Earth.
01:46:20.000
There would be, maybe it's, you know, as simple as the polar ice cap shift and it causes all sorts of fucking havoc and chaos.
01:46:30.000
There's a lot of predicted solar storms activity in 2012. You know, they think they could get unprecedented levels of gamma bursts.
01:46:40.000
Solar storms, like, way, way in the past, where, you know, we didn't have, like, all these satellites and shit.
01:46:45.000
You know, there was, I believe it was in fucking, I think it was the 1950s, I think it was, where there was a giant solar storm, like one of the highest ones ever measured.
01:46:54.000
And they were saying that if that solar storm happened to us today, we literally would knock out communication.
01:47:01.000
We would probably still have the internet in a lot of areas, but a lot of our power grid would be fucked.
01:47:12.000
And when they happen, man, really big ones could toast this whole society.
01:47:19.000
And maybe that's what happens in 2012, and maybe nothing happens.
01:47:24.000
I mean, they even said that the math might even be wrong.
01:47:29.000
So what do you think about New York next week, Brad?
01:47:31.000
We're going to be there in New York City, and then we're going to be in New Jersey for the fucking championship of the world.
01:47:48.000
Yeah, the last time I stayed in Newark, I got tired of hearing sirens all throughout the middle of the night.
01:47:57.000
And I was like, okay, I don't need to stay here.
01:48:07.000
He looks just like Justin Bieber, J'Riah Faber.
01:48:12.000
I think he sings and he taps out motherfuckers once every other weekday.
01:48:17.000
There's a couple great fights on this. - J'Riah Faber's a fascinating dude.
01:48:21.000
I did an interview with him, and one of the things he talked about is very interesting.
01:48:27.000
He's like one of those dudes that gets up in the morning, and he has a list of things that he has written on the wall.
01:48:34.000
I'm going to be world champion by the end of 2011. I'm going to...
01:48:44.000
He's big into setting goals and working hard and accomplishing things.
01:48:49.000
He's got a gang of different things going on at once.
01:48:52.000
He owns three different houses and all the fighters live in these houses.
01:48:56.000
They have on a block and they all live together.
01:48:58.000
They get together and cook healthy meals and hang out together.
01:49:00.000
Can you imagine accidentally robbing that place?
01:49:04.000
Yeah, and talking shit because the guy who meets you at the door is only five foot four.
01:49:09.000
Next thing you know, you're flying through the air and landing on your fucking head.
0.65
01:49:17.000
Jon Jones versus Shogun Hua is some fascinating shit, man, because Shogun is the old assassin.
01:49:25.000
He was the 23-year-old guy when he won the Middleweight Grand Prix.
01:49:29.000
Shogun was this young guy that was fucking everybody up, you know?
01:49:39.000
He fought, you know, he had some real good competition over there.
01:49:44.000
And he also had some fucking destructing wins, too.
01:49:49.000
Like when Rampage was injured, when they fought, Rampage came into the fight with a hurt rib.
01:49:55.000
I shouldn't have ever took the fight in the first place, but I guess he just needed the money.
01:50:08.000
He's a killer, and he's been around a long time, and he's not going to get rattled.
01:50:11.000
And, you know, and I'm not saying that Jon Jones is, because I think Jon Jones is the fucking truth.
01:50:18.000
I think there's certain dudes that just can do things that you can't do, you know, and physically, you know, and when you combine it with intelligence, which he has, and work ethic, which he has, doing all the right things, treating people the right way, good karma.
01:50:32.000
I mean, yeah, he says some things sometimes that I'm sure he'll regret, but he's 20 fucking three years old, you know?
01:50:41.000
You know, a long time ago, they made these super slaves.
01:50:43.000
They thought they were going to get the banks bang out of your buck.
01:50:46.000
That super slave league is called the end motherfucking FL now.
0.91
01:51:33.000
What I say about Jon Jones, and I always say this, is that when he throws people around, it doesn't look like a normal person doing it.
01:51:39.000
When you watch a normal, strong dude just horse somebody around, like Matt Hamill.
01:51:44.000
When Matt Hamill horses somebody around, he looks like, here's his...
01:51:48.000
Big ass, tough, strong motherfucker, and he's going to grab ahold of you and he's going to slam you on your ass.
0.97
01:51:52.000
And it just looks like it's supposed to be happening that way.
01:51:54.000
When Jon Jones does it, it looks like some fucking insect.
01:52:01.000
You know, there's something about how easy he does it.
01:52:08.000
You watch a beetle move or an ant move like something.
01:52:12.000
Ants can pick up some big ass shit and move it around like it's nothing.
01:52:25.000
When he gets that double overhooks and throws guys through the air, who the fuck is doing that?
01:52:39.000
He also tossed Stephen Bonner over the fucking, over his heels.
01:52:48.000
He goes to show you how tough Stephen Bonner is, by the way.
01:53:01.000
What do you think about Marquard against Miller?
01:53:04.000
You know, I wish Miller had a full training camp.
01:53:10.000
And those Miller boys, man, they'll take a fight.
01:53:12.000
You can call them 20 minutes before the fight starts and they'll change their shoes.
01:53:22.000
And they know that you always have to be ready because anything can happen.
01:53:26.000
Nate Marquardt's a great practice fighter, and he's great with these guys, but I don't know.
01:53:30.000
Now this motherfucker's got to go into New Jersey.
01:53:36.000
It's like the Cowboys going into 49erville in 81. What do you think about Crow Cop fighting still?
0.99
01:53:43.000
He's fighting Brendan Schaub, the kid who lost to Big Country in The Ultimate Fighter.
01:53:52.000
And I think that Crow Cup is just trying to finish up his contract.
01:53:58.000
I mean, when the guy keeps getting knocked out like that, I mean, I wonder if he needs money.
01:54:02.000
Do you think he needs money or do you think it's like an ego thing?
01:54:10.000
I was hoping that he was going to walk away after the Pat Barry fight.
01:54:14.000
But then he fights Frank Mir and gets knocked out.
01:54:22.000
I hope the fucking guy can pull it back together.
01:54:25.000
People don't know that Al Starr Overeem was stopped like nine times.
01:54:37.000
A bunch of guys have stopped him, though, including being stopped in K1 and being stopped in kickboxing.
01:54:49.000
So you look at all those guys that beat Alistair, and now Alistair's a fucking destroyer.
01:54:57.000
What he did is he started lifting weights and doing crazy power lifting and shit.
01:55:01.000
He got a lot stronger, got super dedicated, really dedicated his whole life 100% to training.
01:55:07.000
And now he's, like, one of the most dangerous and scary guys on the planet.
01:55:16.000
It hurts me to watch him be a shadow of who he is.
01:55:19.000
I was so excited about him coming over to the UFC because I thought about the Krokop that fought Noguera in Pride.
01:55:24.000
I thought about the Krokop that fought over Fedor's brother, Alexander.
01:55:44.000
But by the time he came over to the UFC, man, it wasn't quite the same.
01:55:48.000
He didn't quite have the motivation that he had back then.
01:55:52.000
It's almost like he achieved so much over there that it was like he went on a mad sprint.
01:56:10.000
Olivera, Charles Olivera, that really good jiu-jitsu kid with the good Muay Thai.
01:56:15.000
A small kid, but Miller grabbed ahold of him, got him in a fucking nasty leg lock quick.
01:56:21.000
You know, and Miller's tapped Dwayne Ludwig off his back.
01:56:24.000
And he dropped Ludwig too before that, which is, you know, Ludwig is a sick kickboxer.
01:56:28.000
So this Kamal Shahruz dude's a bad motherfucker too.
01:56:36.000
He's got a wrestling base, but like a powerful puncher.
01:56:39.000
So that's a good fucking scrap right there, man.
01:56:46.000
You know, Mike Powell's really fucking turning it around.
01:56:53.000
You got to be careful about that guy when he's on his back, man.
01:57:18.000
Anthony Njukuwani's a badass striker from the WEC, one of those guys.
01:57:22.000
Lost a couple fights, but still he's a fucking real dangerous kid.
01:57:33.000
Well, I think the card, the pay-per-view card is going to be an hour early this week.
01:57:37.000
So, in the East Coast, if it used to be on at 9 o'clock, it's now going to be on at 8 o'clock.
01:57:42.000
It's going to start a day, or it's going to start an hour early.
01:57:44.000
It's going to start, instead of 9, it's going to start at, instead of 10, it's going to start at 9. 9, so that means 6 here, okay.
01:57:55.000
I go to my hotel, take a shower, and I can shoot right back out to New York.
01:58:10.000
And there's still a few tickets left, but not much.
01:58:18.000
And then following week, Joey will be with me at Helium in Portland.
01:58:31.000
So we'll see you there at the end of the month.
01:58:33.000
And Joey, this weekend, or this Tuesday, we'll be at...
01:58:37.000
At the Bitter End in New York City, and then Thursday through Saturday at the Comedy Club in Webster, motherfucking New York.
01:58:43.000
Come on down, Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester, and I'll see you fucking animals in New York City at 9 o'clock, ready to rock.
01:58:59.000
And then you're going to be in Rochester that weekend?
01:59:01.000
Yeah, and the following weekend, you were in Portland, Oregon.
01:59:05.000
That's it, and we'll see you guys next Tuesday.
01:59:08.000
I don't know who's going to be on it, because...
01:59:13.000
Please follow Redman because he's very, very upset that he doesn't have very many followers on Twitter.
