- 1:52Speaker 5: ain't never heard me say, Tommy, what's on your mind?
- 1:54Speaker 5: Because I already know if I asked you to open
- 1:57Speaker 5: up that thing that's inside your head called your mind, said,
- 2:01Speaker 5: this could change the direction of.
- 2:03Speaker 4: The whole morning show. That's why I never asked it.
- 2:05Speaker 5: And so at the end Junior asked for stuff, and
- 2:09Speaker 5: Junior's asking.
- 2:10Speaker 4: Me, now, can he believe how favored I am?
- 2:14Speaker 5: And my answer to God's favor in my life is
- 2:17Speaker 5: it's unbelievable. It is unbelievable. You know, they asked me
- 2:24Speaker 5: a question that investments. Terrence J said, Hey, Unk, you
- 2:27Speaker 5: know like you mented me, you helped me in the beginning,
- 2:30Speaker 5: you help Nick Cannon. We all three on this panel,
- 2:32Speaker 5: he said, man who mented you when you first got
- 2:35Speaker 5: into business, and it was a quick answer for me.
- 2:38Speaker 5: I didn't have anybody in the business that meanted me.
- 2:42Speaker 5: I didn't know anybody in show business. The only person
- 2:44Speaker 5: I knew was our senior Hall, and I didn't even
- 2:46Speaker 5: know how to contact him. So when I got into
- 2:49Speaker 5: this business, man, I knew nothing about the business. I
- 2:52Speaker 5: didn't know the questions to ask about the business. I literally,
- 2:56Speaker 5: and like I said on stage, I'm not bragging, I
- 2:59Speaker 5: literally had to figure it out because I didn't have
- 3:02Speaker 5: nobody say hey, man, how you book club dates? How
- 3:05Speaker 5: you do this? How you do that? I didn't have
- 3:08Speaker 5: that in the beginning. What taught me how to be
- 3:10Speaker 5: successful was my father's lessons of life and my mother's
- 3:15Speaker 5: teachings of Christ. That was what got me to be
- 3:18Speaker 5: able to hang in there, to keep the faith, to
- 3:21Speaker 5: never give up, and things like that. Now, as I
- 3:24Speaker 5: got into business, the person who taught me the most
- 3:28Speaker 5: about first of all, Joe Tory. Joe Tory came to
- 3:32Speaker 5: see me one night at the Punchline in Buckhead and
- 3:35Speaker 5: he said, man, I just had to come see you. Man.
- 3:37Speaker 4: He said, you that black dude that's making this money
- 3:39Speaker 4: in these clubs. Man.
- 3:41Speaker 5: I said, yeah, Man, thank you brother. He said, Man,
- 3:44Speaker 5: you ever played a black club? I said no, I
- 3:46Speaker 5: ain't got none. He said, Man, Mike Williams just opened
- 3:49Speaker 5: up one downtown Atlanta comedy act theater. He said, you
- 3:53Speaker 5: should come down there. So I went down there. The
- 3:55Speaker 5: next night. Joe came and picked me up and we
- 3:57Speaker 5: went down there to the club. That was my first time.
- 4:00Speaker 5: I'm sitting in an all black comedy club. And the
- 4:03Speaker 5: black people that went up on stage, Man, I was
- 4:05Speaker 5: hollering laughing. I was hollering laughing. Man mesmerized at the
- 4:09Speaker 5: subject matter that they could do because they was doing
- 4:12Speaker 5: stuff that was culturally funny. Now, me and Joe went
- 4:15Speaker 5: out to eat that night to the waffle house, and
- 4:18Speaker 5: I was telling Joe some story about boxing and my dad,
- 4:20Speaker 5: and Joe torys cracking up. He said, Man, I done
- 4:23Speaker 5: came out to that club two nights in a row. Man,
- 4:25Speaker 5: how come you'll never tell that on stage? I said, Man,
- 4:27Speaker 5: because they ain't gonna get it. He said, Man, f them.
- 4:30Speaker 5: He said, do it yourself. Man, do what's funny? He said, Man,
- 4:34Speaker 5: you funny as hell. Joe Tory made me change my
- 4:38Speaker 5: act to me to make myself more culturally who I am.
- 4:43Speaker 5: Then j Anthony Brown taught me how to do comedy, structuring, jokes,
- 4:51Speaker 5: stage presence, man, how to not care.
- 4:53Speaker 4: Then George Wallace taught me how not to care.
- 4:57Speaker 3: You go.
- 4:57Speaker 5: George used to come on stage and say, hey, man,
- 4:59Speaker 5: I know everybody out here asking y'all how y'all doing.
- 5:01Speaker 5: I don't give a blankety blank how the blank y'all doing.
- 5:06Speaker 5: Y'all paid to see me, And I went, kind dog,
- 5:09Speaker 5: you can say something like that. So then I started
- 5:13Speaker 5: getting that right there. But God's favor in my life
- 5:18Speaker 5: that I was able to get here in spite of
- 5:20Speaker 5: my lack of knowledge, in spite of my understanding, and
- 5:24Speaker 5: in spite of all that I went through. All the
- 5:27Speaker 5: failures I've had man, marriage, my life failures, man, mistakes
- 5:33Speaker 5: I've made in front of the world on camera though,
- 5:36Speaker 5: the cancelation of shows that I've had.
- 5:39Speaker 4: People laughed at me. Man, it's been crazy. Man.
- 5:43Speaker 5: I was being on some art one time at Beyonces
- 5:46Speaker 5: mother's event, and on stage the whole said, well, I
- 5:50Speaker 5: got out of the bed one of the pictures, one
- 5:52Speaker 5: of fifty thousand Mere Marji said that's too high for
- 5:54Speaker 5: that we stopped. Well, I guess you had to stop.

- 5:59Speaker 5: That's what the whole see in front of everybody. And
- 6:01Speaker 5: she laughed. She thought it was funny as hell. And
- 6:04Speaker 5: I set that. Through all of that, and in spite
- 6:06Speaker 5: of all that has happened to me, God's favor has
- 6:10Speaker 5: stayed on me.
- 6:12Speaker 4: And here I stand. I'm still standing.
