- 2:18Speaker 3: to get the idea. Yeah, we had no help.
- 2:21Speaker 1: We could like everybody else.

- 2:37Speaker 3: we just fought on our own. We just fought it,
- 2:40Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, and survived. And so we
- 2:42Speaker 3: were at the first location for five years. Now we're
- 2:44Speaker 3: at a brand new location downtown on the Marriotte Block

- 5:13Speaker 4: Wow, oh mama, And I'm just telling you the little
- 5:16Speaker 4: things like that.
- 5:16Speaker 3: I was like, you know what let me just play
- 5:18Speaker 3: my role, let me do my ship, and let me
- 5:20Speaker 3: just you know what I'm saying.
- 5:21Speaker 4: But that was actually that was heavy that day.
- 5:23Speaker 2: I remember that day because when the degrees came on,
- 5:26Speaker 2: all of us that's from the South started rapping.
- 5:28Speaker 1: It like everybody didn't talk like that was a great day.
- 5:33Speaker 3: Nine on TV about that, and I looked up in
- 5:35Speaker 3: all nine Squirts Rock I was like, okay, and.
- 5:38Speaker 1: I remember you doing the crowd work, but I remember
- 5:41Speaker 1: being a little bit bigger.
- 5:42Speaker 4: Okay, I remember.
- 6:01Speaker 3: Breakfast club because we're trying to lose weight. Yeah, I went,
- 6:05Speaker 3: I went fruit and veggie raw at the may first,
- 6:09Speaker 3: and I lost thirty eight point five pounds. So I'm
- 6:13Speaker 3: just like melting And so now I'm like trying to introduce,
- 6:16Speaker 3: you know, some white meats back and whatever, just because
- 6:18Speaker 3: I was like, man, there's too much chicken going to buy.
- 6:19Speaker 4: Everybody like we eating with you.
- 6:22Speaker 3: So I basically just eat around the outside of the
- 6:24Speaker 3: grocery store and stay off the middle. And so I've
- 6:26Speaker 3: just been melting away. Was it a scale or you
- 6:29Speaker 3: just wanted to get healthy or the reason why I
- 6:31Speaker 3: want to see where my dick connect to my body? Okay, look, yeah,
- 6:39Speaker 3: I have a joke about it. I can see the
- 6:40Speaker 3: first seven inches, but that first five I can't see
- 6:42Speaker 3: that part.
- 6:43Speaker 4: So that's a joke.
- 6:43Speaker 3: But no, I just wanted to lose some weight, man,
- 6:45Speaker 3: I had. We lost, Teddy Ray, we lost.
- 6:49Speaker 1: I were laughing at that. Now I'm laughing. I'm still
- 6:51Speaker 1: having the big jokes.
- 6:53Speaker 4: They did the math.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Too, anyway, seventy half but rescip But you.
- 7:05Speaker 6: Know what I noticed in your special you talk about
- 7:08Speaker 6: it a lot, your weight and eating.
- 7:10Speaker 5: You got a lot of food jokes or whatever.
- 7:12Speaker 4: You had it like four minutes of to just break
- 7:14Speaker 4: the ice.
- 7:15Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
- 7:16Speaker 3: And they're like, well that's what we're gonna take for
- 7:18Speaker 3: the for the national clip. That's gonna be your trailer.
- 7:20Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, so now, okay, what about all the
- 7:22Speaker 3: other stuff I said.
- 7:24Speaker 5: But how does it impact now?
- 7:25Speaker 6: Because now you you know, you lost lost a lot
- 7:27Speaker 6: of weighting and I guess and you're still coming down, right,
- 7:29Speaker 6: So how does that affect your comedy now?
- 7:31Speaker 5: Like you're still doing the food jokes?
- 7:33Speaker 3: You can. I mean it's not I don't have I
- 7:36Speaker 3: had food jokes, but it was more about weight lost
- 7:38Speaker 3: jokes and temptation and you can have that at anyway,
- 7:41Speaker 3: you know what I'm.
- 7:41Speaker 4: Saying, Like it was it was crafted or I was like,
- 7:43Speaker 4: I think I'm.
- 7:43Speaker 1: Losing weight, but I can still get these jokes off.
- 7:46Speaker 4: You know what I mean.
- 7:46Speaker 3: But at the end of it, I write a lot
- 7:47Speaker 3: and that's what that's what, that's what the crowd work.
- 7:50Speaker 4: And you're writing on the spot, so just.
- 7:52Speaker 1: Switch it up.
- 7:53Speaker 7: Is there anything that you stay away from, like, you know,
- 7:55Speaker 7: because I feel like the world is so sensitive now,
- 7:57Speaker 7: Like you say.
- 7:57Speaker 3: One thing, you know we're gonna cancel you did it?
- 8:00Speaker 1: Think that you stay away from it?
- 8:00Speaker 4: You like, fuck it.
- 8:02Speaker 3: I kind of am with everything, but I will I
- 8:05Speaker 3: will tread lightly around, uh, you know, some politics stuff
- 8:12Speaker 3: because it's they've just been so it's so magnetized, you
- 8:16Speaker 3: know that. At a point people are like, I don't
- 8:18Speaker 3: even care what you's talk about, No Moore because he's
- 8:19Speaker 3: not He's obviously not. And I'm like, man, just chill out.
- 8:21Speaker 3: I want everybody to laugh first, right, That's that's why
- 8:24Speaker 3: it's called super funny.
- 8:25Speaker 4: I wasn't.
- 8:25Speaker 3: That's the theme of the show. Love, love hard, eat good,
- 8:29Speaker 3: and laugh, laugh to your fullest.
- 8:30Speaker 4: So that's the thing. That's what That's what it is.
- 8:34Speaker 7: I was gonna say, do you think people miss the
- 8:36Speaker 7: funny and things because they want to cancel you? They
- 8:38Speaker 7: are looking for something to be hurt or affected by?
- 8:41Speaker 7: Because I remember one time you just laughed. It wasn't
- 8:44Speaker 7: It could be a black joke, a white joke, a
- 8:45Speaker 7: gay joke, a stranger.
- 8:46Speaker 3: It didn't matter. If it was funny, it was funny.
- 8:48Speaker 7: But now I feel like people look for something to
- 8:50Speaker 7: be like, I'm gonna cancel you off that word right there?
- 8:52Speaker 4: You know, yeah, depend on the word, but yeah, or
- 8:56Speaker 4: the term or the joke.
- 8:57Speaker 3: I think it depends on how you saying it, right,
- 8:59Speaker 3: Like what I can what I can stand the least
- 9:02Speaker 3: is when a comic takes the time to craft a
- 9:03Speaker 3: beautiful joke, and I mean a beautiful joke where it
- 9:06Speaker 3: like meanders and then you get hit with the punch
- 9:09Speaker 3: and then you still be like, but the topic was
- 9:11Speaker 3: stud of out, Hey, man, chill out.
- 9:14Speaker 1: That's a good ass joke.
- 9:15Speaker 3: Also, I think we're shifting back some and I don't
- 9:19Speaker 3: want to say it on a platform so big that
- 9:21Speaker 3: people are like, oh, you think we won't cancel you too.
- 9:23Speaker 3: I don't need that smoke. But I'm just saying I
- 9:26Speaker 3: think there's been a shift since maybe twenty nineteen, twenty
- 9:29Speaker 3: twenty gams, and so there's been some pushback people like
- 9:32Speaker 3: Schultz and people like Chappelle that are like, I'm man,
- 9:34Speaker 3: fuck all that comedy first, then we'll talk about what's next.
- 9:38Speaker 6: That's the key to that though, right, Like, if you
- 9:40Speaker 6: are gonna say anything that's gonna be even a little
- 9:44Speaker 6: bit controversy, it has to be funny fun so people
- 9:46Speaker 6: can't be worried. It gotta be so funny to the
- 9:48Speaker 6: point where they only need want cancel.
- 9:50Speaker 5: You man, that is funny. R.
- 9:52Speaker 3: Yeah. I had a joke about a Vietnamese car dealer
- 9:55Speaker 3: and it don't sounds ridiculous. I'm from Tacoma Water and
- 10:00Speaker 3: we kick it with the Vietnamese, Cambodians, Simons, black people,
- 10:03Speaker 3: we all, everyone's all. We all mixing. So when you
- 10:06Speaker 3: go gamble, the dealer gonna be Vietnamese. And they were
- 10:09Speaker 3: teaching me words, and so I started picking up on
- 10:11Speaker 3: the dillect and be like do my and stuff like that.
- 10:13Speaker 3: So I had this joke of that that means fuck you,
- 10:16Speaker 3: and so I picked up on that. This is uh
- 10:19Speaker 3: uma is fuck you, and dou Miama is fuck your mama,
- 10:22Speaker 3: and then uh uh. The Cambodians they be like they
- 10:25Speaker 3: own my something like that and that means like pussy ass.
- 10:27Speaker 3: So they said that a lot, and I just start
- 10:29Speaker 3: hearing it not knowing what it was. I'm like, why
- 10:31Speaker 3: y'all keep saying do ma? What is doma? And they're like,
- 10:33Speaker 3: oh yeah me fuck you. I'm like, what the fuck?
- 10:36Speaker 3: So I wrote a joke about how I had found out,
- 10:38Speaker 3: but I put it after I hit a jackpot. So
- 10:41Speaker 3: basically she was calling me bow bow, which was my
- 10:43Speaker 3: interpretation of her saying nigga to my face, and I
- 10:45Speaker 3: didn't know. So I slowly revealed that they've been.
- 10:48Speaker 4: Being racist to me.
- 10:49Speaker 3: And then I get her some get back the dealer
- 10:51Speaker 3: and I say she acts black, so she I said, well, okay,
- 10:55Speaker 3: you act black then, and she's like, I don't know
- 10:57Speaker 3: my father. I'm like, bitch, that's you want to sound.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Don't she about to come in like.
- 11:22Speaker 5: Stop?
- 11:23Speaker 3: That triggered her. I'm sorry, man.
- 11:26Speaker 2: I was watching one of your specials before one of
- 11:28Speaker 2: your CrowdWork specialist, Man, there was a fat dude in
- 11:30Speaker 2: the crowd.
- 11:31Speaker 1: The fat dude named big Mac that do security.
- 11:34Speaker 2: I don't know if you remember, but the dude was
- 11:36Speaker 2: like he said something to you, and you was like,
- 11:38Speaker 2: don't get mad at me. I'm not the one who
- 11:40Speaker 2: fed you.
- 11:46Speaker 3: In the comments like pot calling the kettle black, I'm like, nah,
- 11:48Speaker 3: that's a little pot called a big kettle. But the
- 11:52Speaker 3: point of the Vietnamese joke was that same joke. JFL
- 11:55Speaker 3: was like, we can't have you up here because you're
- 11:57Speaker 3: saying that joke. Did you listen to right? So I
- 12:02Speaker 3: just got back from that, came straight from Montreil here
- 12:04Speaker 3: to I had my own show. I had like I
- 12:06Speaker 3: did Variety top ten. Yes I got that this year
- 12:10Speaker 3: and so. But but it brings it full circle to
- 12:12Speaker 3: be like you almost. I was like I should I
- 12:14Speaker 3: should do the joke, you know what I'm saying. But
- 12:17Speaker 3: they showed me so much love. I was like, you
- 12:18Speaker 3: know what, I'm not gonna be bitter canny if it's funny. Now,
- 12:23Speaker 3: if I just came out like Vietnamese sound crazy and
- 12:25Speaker 3: I just start cussing like him like that, that is
- 12:27Speaker 3: you overstepping.
- 12:28Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what I'm saying. But and that's my pet.
- 12:31Speaker 3: People like if somebody if you can you can hear
- 12:33Speaker 3: the intellect and the joke and the setup and be like, oh,
- 12:35Speaker 3: that was a good misdirection to hear that, be like, nah,
- 12:38Speaker 3: it's like how some older black people like I didn't
- 12:40Speaker 3: even have fun because he cussed fourteen times. He's in
- 12:44Speaker 3: there counting exactly.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Man's show. Yes, listen to give people the story.
- 12:49Speaker 2: So you went from doing the warm up, warming up
- 12:51Speaker 2: the crowd at the hip hop Square, but I know
- 12:52Speaker 2: you ended up on a while and now like, how
- 12:54Speaker 2: did all of those stuff things happen?
- 12:55Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, Uh, that that's not my start. My start.
- 12:58Speaker 3: I just got dared to do comedy while I was
- 13:00Speaker 3: in college and I went on stage and I was like, oh,
- 13:03Speaker 3: this was kind of good, and so I stuck with it.
- 13:05Speaker 3: And then I moved immediately to LA and I was
- 13:08Speaker 3: there for like six years, and then I was like,
- 13:11Speaker 3: I need to go home and stack some bread. So
- 13:13Speaker 3: I started like twelve shows and then I combined into
- 13:15Speaker 3: one show and it was like the biggest show. It
- 13:18Speaker 3: was like Thursday Night was like four hundred and twenty people.
- 13:20Speaker 4: For like eight years. It was massive.
- 13:22Speaker 3: And in Tacoma, Yeah, downtown Tacoma. And if it's really
- 13:28Speaker 3: like eighty people every Thursday in case I RS is listening.
- 13:30Speaker 4: So it was like it was Hella.
- 13:33Speaker 3: But then I stacked and came back, and so then
- 13:35Speaker 3: different opportunities started to kind of come together, and so
- 13:39Speaker 3: I had an opportunity to work with Jesse Collins Entertainment,
- 13:41Speaker 3: and that's how I did the crowd work. And I
- 13:43Speaker 3: think it was just a plug from Dray because you know,
- 13:46Speaker 3: I do Monday nights at the Improv and it looks
- 13:49Speaker 3: shout out to Dray, and so that's how I got
- 13:54Speaker 3: into that. But the way Hollywood, man, you'll have a
- 13:56Speaker 3: day where you're like, yo, I made it. You'll be
- 13:59Speaker 3: stick in on a table, fist pumping the air between
- 14:04Speaker 3: Tony Rock and Chris Rock, you know what I'm saying,
- 14:07Speaker 3: Like it would feel like a million bucks. And then
- 14:09Speaker 3: the next day you're like, damn, I gotta perform in
- 14:11Speaker 3: this dungeon. It's not it's not it's up there, but
- 14:14Speaker 3: you gotta do it all. And so you know that,
- 14:17Speaker 3: that's essentially why I was where I was. I was like, man,
- 14:20Speaker 3: I just can't get a damn I got wilding out.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Bet I do four episodes now, says I look old
- 14:24Speaker 3: I'm like, nigga, Corey Holkom is here, how.
- 14:30Speaker 1: No shame, no shame.
- 14:31Speaker 3: I'm just saying, don't sell old nigga. Like I waited
- 14:35Speaker 3: to get on the show for six years. Yeah, old,
- 14:37Speaker 3: Now give me a part of my hair. Let me rock.
- 14:43Speaker 4: And then every game was rapping. I'm like, nigga, we
- 14:45Speaker 4: can't just.
- 14:45Speaker 1: Do no old.
- 14:47Speaker 3: Nigga.
- 14:47Speaker 1: They would have a game all right, this is what
- 14:49Speaker 1: we're gonna do.

- 14:51Speaker 3: We're like promise, like yo, yeah, Nick in the corner,

- 15:13Speaker 3: ones though. They were big ones though, Like I did
- 15:16Speaker 3: Erkabaddu episode. We did because I can sing too. So
- 15:19Speaker 3: we did the Revenge of Tyrone where she did the
- 15:21Speaker 3: follow up to call Tyrone, and then I did the
- 15:24Speaker 3: Travis Scott episode, and then I did the one where
- 15:27Speaker 3: the dude had hell of kids, but then he said we.
- 15:29Speaker 4: Can't talk about the kids.
- 15:32Speaker 3: Nick kny no, no, it was somebody want more? I
- 15:33Speaker 3: think Cromarty Antonio, Yeah, that's all we want to talk about,
- 15:38Speaker 3: Like you got a million kids? He was like anything
- 15:40Speaker 3: but the kids. We're like, well, then go home, because yeah,
- 15:44Speaker 3: so I did some good you know what I'm saying.
- 15:47Speaker 3: And so I'll like that, you know what I think
- 15:50Speaker 3: the reason I only got the four and I'd like
- 15:52Speaker 3: to say this on this platform. On the Erkabad episode,
- 15:56Speaker 3: she came and she was like, Yo, let me meet
- 15:58Speaker 3: the people. I'm gonna be on the episode with it
- 16:00Speaker 3: and the eighty five South guys all stood around on
- 16:02Speaker 3: the sound stage with now and she's like, here's what
- 16:05Speaker 3: I think we should do, and now ran down the games.
- 16:08Speaker 3: Here's what we're gonna do. Freestyle from there. She's like, Okay,
- 16:10Speaker 3: I'm going to my dressing room. I want i want
- 16:13Speaker 3: one of the brighter ones to come with me. Now
- 16:14Speaker 3: I'm standing up there with one episode under my belt.
- 16:17Speaker 3: She's like you, what's your name? I'm like Nate Jackson.
- 16:19Speaker 3: She's like, you you telling me what's going on here?
- 16:21Speaker 3: And now I was like, I was like, hey, Carlos,
- 16:24Speaker 3: can you come with me? Grab Carlos, we go down.
- 16:27Speaker 3: She's like, there's gonna be a part where I go
- 16:28Speaker 3: down to my knee and I'm singing real hard. I
- 16:30Speaker 3: want you to put my jacket on me like James Brown.
- 16:33Speaker 3: I'm gonna throw it off and come back like a
- 16:34Speaker 3: phoenix and I'm gonna kill it. I'm like, bet that
- 16:37Speaker 3: part of the show happens, I walk out, I put
- 16:39Speaker 3: the thing on her. Everything happens as planned. After it's over,
- 16:43Speaker 3: exacs come up and they're like, who the fuck told
- 16:45Speaker 3: you to walk out?
- 16:46Speaker 4: Sorry? What?
- 16:47Speaker 3: Wow? Air Cab, I do that? Erbadue told you to
- 16:50Speaker 3: walk out? Yeah, she said throw the thing on her.
- 16:52Speaker 3: Why do you what you thought? I just over just
- 16:54Speaker 3: came out the I know I'm barely welcome here, nigga.
- 16:57Speaker 3: Why would I put yeah, mess up your milling million
- 17:00Speaker 3: dollar a moment, you know what I'm saying. And so
- 17:02Speaker 3: that's what it was like. I was on ice, but
- 17:04Speaker 3: it only takes the show.
- 17:06Speaker 1: So even if you did.
- 17:06Speaker 3: Do that and it worked, come on, man, think you
- 17:09Speaker 3: put the other hat on exact, you put your bag
- 17:12Speaker 3: in the air can being on an episode and come
- 17:14Speaker 3: one of your little niggas doing anything in the frame
- 17:17Speaker 3: that she asked to do that specifically. And I even
- 17:21Speaker 3: remember being like somebody was next to me. I was like,
- 17:23Speaker 3: actually said to the thing, you want to go out
- 17:24Speaker 3: and they were like, no, man, I don't want to go.
- 17:27Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, well she asked like I'm not gonna.
- 17:29Speaker 3: I don't want to not do it. Then after she's like,
- 17:31Speaker 3: where was the nigga with that? I was waiting, man,
- 17:36Speaker 3: when nigga niggas like batman nigga? You see Nick there
- 17:40Speaker 3: and then motherfuckers Nina smoke hell. Nick one.
- 17:46Speaker 8: The last time you see nigga jazz playing cards on
- 17:50Speaker 8: the internet, I'm not seeing that. It's just in the
- 17:54Speaker 8: garage doing upside down set ups. You will never see Nick.
- 17:58Speaker 4: You got too many shows.
- 18:00Speaker 3: Six shows. I could not believe. Bro He shot like
- 18:05Speaker 3: a vlog, a Diesus and Meryle thing. He shot walling out,
- 18:09Speaker 3: then he went to a g T then he shot
- 18:10Speaker 3: a car show.
- 18:12Speaker 4: Then I was like, this is tired. Now.
- 18:15Speaker 7: See Nick, when with the successor of social media for you,
- 18:20Speaker 7: how did that affect? Did that happen because you planned
- 18:22Speaker 7: it out? Or were people just taking clips and you
- 18:24Speaker 7: were just like, what the is going on?
- 18:25Speaker 3: No, man, I've been grinding for a minute, and so
- 18:27Speaker 3: that's what I was saying when I had the Thursday
- 18:28Speaker 3: Night for so many years, you could come to the
- 18:31Speaker 3: Pacific Northwest and be like, Okay, there's a guy out
- 18:33Speaker 3: there that got the sauce right, And so what happens
- 18:35Speaker 3: a lot of times if somebody's further in their career
- 18:37Speaker 3: than you, they'd be like, let me just get a
- 18:39Speaker 3: little bit of that and take that with me. So
- 18:41Speaker 3: there was a lot of my recipe out ahead of
- 18:43Speaker 3: me before I had the exposure.
- 18:44Speaker 7: They're stealing your stuff, you know, they were stealing your stuff.
- 18:48Speaker 3: A man, I don't want to call nobody no thief
- 18:50Speaker 3: without them here to defend himself, you know what I'm saying,
- 18:53Speaker 3: And also to be choked or whatever happens after that.
- 18:57Speaker 3: They don't have to there's ways to catch people. All
- 19:00Speaker 3: I had to do was wait, be patient, work hard.
- 19:04Speaker 3: Like you said, the Netflix special speaks for itself. It's
- 19:07Speaker 3: like watching Elvis for years and then you see the
- 19:09Speaker 3: dude who showed them the legs, like them that nigga
- 19:11Speaker 3: got the legs, you know what I'm saying. So uh
- 19:16Speaker 3: that that made me forget the damn Yeah. So one
- 19:20Speaker 3: of the homies, not one of homies. Several people like
- 19:22Speaker 3: Matt Rife, Roy Wood and Rodney Perry. They're all like
- 19:26Speaker 3: and shout out to Rodney Perry, but they're like, yo,
- 19:29Speaker 3: you need to get on, get on TikTok.
- 19:31Speaker 4: And I was like, I'm exhausted right now. I am
- 19:33Speaker 4: not getting another app.
- 19:34Speaker 3: You know that, Yes, yes, right, and get on, get
- 19:38Speaker 3: on the boo boom like I'm not getting on doole
- 19:40Speaker 3: boom boom nigga. Like I'm done. I'm happy with my
- 19:42Speaker 3: I g set up my Facebook. Shit cool, I'm not
- 19:45Speaker 3: hiring a nigga to put me on doodle Boom blue.
- 19:47Speaker 3: And that's how it sound we you first here, because
- 19:48Speaker 3: it's always a something you on the t app.
- 19:55Speaker 4: Right now, they got my house address and my damn.
- 20:00Speaker 3: Not that I know, not that I know. Unless somebody
- 20:04Speaker 3: post Nate Jackson on the t app.
- 20:06Speaker 1: Man, I'm not on there.
- 20:17Speaker 3: It's a tough groom. Post post him on there. Maybe
- 20:19Speaker 3: they'll tell you where he is.
- 20:21Speaker 1: Speak.
- 20:28Speaker 3: I wasn't dancing on that guy. But no, I said,
- 20:31Speaker 3: I don't want to do another app, and so I
- 20:34Speaker 3: got on reluctantly. I got on TikTok and I don't
- 20:38Speaker 3: know if it's still exactly like this, but at the time,
- 20:40Speaker 3: like people were willing to actually follow because people's I
- 20:42Speaker 3: g be set up. Somebody gotta really somebody gotta you
- 20:46Speaker 3: gotta see twelve good things from somebody, be like, you
- 20:48Speaker 3: know what, I'm gonna give you a fu on TikTok.
- 20:52Speaker 3: It just felt like, Hi, I follow, you know what
- 20:55Speaker 3: I'm saying. So it jumped for It jumped from me
- 20:58Speaker 3: like from zero, like twenty five thousand and like, I
- 21:02Speaker 3: don't know, I'd say, a month, what was you posting
- 21:04Speaker 3: this CrowdWork? No, I was posting anything, but I didn't
- 21:07Speaker 3: want to show understand that you know what I'm saying.
- 21:09Speaker 3: And plus I was like I was trying to shoot
- 21:12Speaker 3: it and I would shoot good and then the sound
- 21:13Speaker 3: be fucked up where the sound be good and then
- 21:14Speaker 3: the shot be fucked up. Then I just committed to
- 21:17Speaker 3: it and got the system down at my own club,
- 21:21Speaker 3: and then I was like, Okay, now I can consistently
- 21:23Speaker 3: do stuff. But at the time, there was no apps
- 21:26Speaker 3: for captioning or AI, so you had to actually sit
- 21:28Speaker 3: there and transcribe yourself. It took three four hours to
- 21:31Speaker 3: do a two minute video, and so I was like,
- 21:34Speaker 3: I'm exhausted doing this shit.
- 21:36Speaker 4: No, all this is free.
- 21:38Speaker 3: But I could look on the app and see like
- 21:40Speaker 3: other people exploding where I'm like, okay, if I post
- 21:43Speaker 3: my shit because I already know I'm great at that,
- 21:45Speaker 3: if that worked, if that clip I just saw work
- 21:48Speaker 3: and I know what I'm holding, if I could just
- 21:50Speaker 3: post this, you know what I'm saying. And so it
- 21:52Speaker 3: just started to catch, and so it kept catching and
- 21:55Speaker 3: kept catching and kept catching. So now we're at four
- 21:57Speaker 3: point five maybe four point six million or something.
- 22:00Speaker 2: You think that era is dead because I feel like
- 22:02Speaker 2: there was a moment where it was like the You
- 22:04Speaker 2: and the matt Rice and the Andrews Shoultzes that was
- 22:08Speaker 2: just putting their comedy up and it just took off
- 22:11Speaker 2: of them. I don't know if it was COVID because
- 22:12Speaker 2: everybody was sitting there. I don't know what it was,
- 22:14Speaker 2: but something just caused comedians to take off because of
- 22:17Speaker 2: social media.
- 22:18Speaker 3: It wasn't It wasn't COVID. For me, I was trying
- 22:21Speaker 3: to save my club, that wasn't it. I didn't get
- 22:24Speaker 3: to post it until like right after I was like,
- 22:26Speaker 3: we can finally open and get situated. No, I don't
- 22:29Speaker 3: think it's I don't think that's over. I think people's
- 22:32Speaker 3: interest to be entertained is I would say it's limitless.
- 22:35Speaker 3: They say during the Great Depression when everybody broke, the
- 22:38Speaker 3: last thing people spent money on was going to theaters
- 22:40Speaker 3: and stuff like, if I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna
- 22:42Speaker 3: go out having fun. So no, I don't think I
- 22:43Speaker 3: think it's an insation. But doesn't it feel like it like,
- 22:46Speaker 3: no matter how much content you make, there's somebody to
- 22:48Speaker 3: receive it, and they're gonna give me more. So no,
- 22:52Speaker 3: I feel like it just be consistent and be good,
- 22:56Speaker 3: and be good consistently, and I think people find you,
- 22:58Speaker 3: like people just need to use the internet as a
- 22:59Speaker 3: time the show, and that's it.
- 23:02Speaker 2: What's had more impact on your career the YouTube crowd
- 23:05Speaker 2: work stuff or.
- 23:06Speaker 1: The Netflix special?
- 23:09Speaker 3: That's not fair because Netflix has only been on since
- 23:12Speaker 3: the eighth gotcha, But I know I've I've had my
- 23:16Speaker 3: because when you do a special, you get to have
- 23:18Speaker 3: a conversation at I think ten days and then another
- 23:21Speaker 3: one at twenty eight days about the numbers.
- 23:23Speaker 4: Other than that, you guys know, Netflix don't share no
- 23:25Speaker 4: numbers like that.
- 23:26Speaker 3: Yeah, And so my first conversation with them, it was
- 23:30Speaker 3: it did massive like it it's like double platinum, like
- 23:33Speaker 3: it did really good on the platform, and I'm getting
- 23:36Speaker 3: stopped by people in the airports and that was happening before.
- 23:39Speaker 3: So I'm trying to gauge, like so where you see
- 23:40Speaker 3: me from where you see and they won't admit, like
- 23:42Speaker 3: everybody want to be I've been following since filing out,
- 23:45Speaker 3: like whatepisode, nigga.
- 23:48Speaker 1: Nobody want to say that. I mean, I saw you
- 23:49Speaker 1: last night, and I mean I called it.
- 23:51Speaker 3: Super funny, like my trademarked comedy club name and brand,
- 23:54Speaker 3: so that even if you didn't know me, you go
- 23:57Speaker 3: super funny show me right, and it's it's going crazy
- 24:02Speaker 3: right now. So if you want to laugh, go watch that.
- 24:05Speaker 3: But I got to show that it's not just CrowdWork.
- 24:08Speaker 3: I got to show you know, twenty four years of
- 24:10Speaker 3: chops or whatever, and so you see it all you
- 24:12Speaker 3: see if you watch a stand a standalone clip, you're
- 24:16Speaker 3: assuming that that's that. But the real epiphany is like, wait,
- 24:19Speaker 3: all that's one show. All that strings together all that
- 24:22Speaker 3: somehow and standing and he's doing some singings and it
- 24:25Speaker 3: like so I wanted to just give everything in my
- 24:28Speaker 3: in my toolbox and throw it out there and we
- 24:31Speaker 3: caught it, and it's risky. It's risky doing crowd work
- 24:34Speaker 3: on a you know, that ship was two hundred and
- 24:37Speaker 3: forty six thousand dollars. And I'm gonna go up and
- 24:39Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm gonna say. But you get
- 24:42Speaker 3: Comic View and they're like, we want your jokes and
- 24:44Speaker 3: paragraph form, you know, every single word. You gotta you
- 24:47Speaker 3: gotta write down your little five minutes and send it
- 24:49Speaker 3: in and they approve it. But for this cord over
- 24:52Speaker 3: quarter million dollars, I'm like, man, just press record nigg
- 24:54Speaker 3: we're gonna see what happens.
- 24:56Speaker 4: And we caught it.
- 24:57Speaker 3: But it was risky, and it's risky every time you
- 25:00Speaker 3: do it because you're in charge of your set and
- 25:02Speaker 3: then and you're going a certain cadence and then you
- 25:06Speaker 3: slow down to be like, so tell me something about
- 25:08Speaker 3: you else, and now they are then in fuck the
- 25:10Speaker 3: whole groove of you know what I'm saying. And so,
- 25:13Speaker 3: but I went for it, and and what you see
- 25:16Speaker 3: on on Netflix, we caught it. Yeah, you know what
- 25:18Speaker 3: I'm saying.
- 25:19Speaker 5: How did that? How did that come about?
- 25:20Speaker 4: Though?
- 25:20Speaker 5: How did how did Netflix end up the place?
- 25:25Speaker 3: So let me answer that for sure, because this is
- 25:29Speaker 3: I'm crazy about that answer. But then on the other
- 25:33Speaker 3: side of the coin is what I can control is
- 25:36Speaker 3: the crowd work joints. I walk out, It's first Wednesdays
- 25:39Speaker 3: at my club, one or two shows, and I'm and
- 25:41Speaker 3: the challenge was, you can only talk about what's in
- 25:43Speaker 3: front of you or what you've seen that day, and
- 25:46Speaker 3: I gotta do an hour. So I go up with
- 25:48Speaker 3: nothing and I come off. And so there's twenty four
- 25:51Speaker 3: of those now, and every one is somewhere around one
- 25:54Speaker 3: point five to two point five million views. And so
- 25:59Speaker 3: it's the only place where I explained like the rules
- 26:01Speaker 3: that I do when I say so. When I'm in
- 26:04Speaker 3: live shows in theaters and I start saying the rule,
- 26:06Speaker 3: they're finishing my sentences. So I think the crowd work
- 26:09Speaker 3: joints is what got me to the point that the
- 26:12Speaker 3: Netflix special was possible to then go boom on this
- 26:16Speaker 3: platform where everybody goes this is this is where you
- 26:19Speaker 3: put your your best shit and I and I did so.
- 26:22Speaker 4: Now people, oh, I thought he was just a tiktak guy.
- 26:25Speaker 2: I'm shocked Netflix did that, though. I mean, because based
- 26:27Speaker 2: off watching your specialis I'm shocked that they chose to
- 26:30Speaker 2: invest in something like that, like, oh, what is it
- 26:33Speaker 2: gonna be an hour just CrowdWork, even though the crowd
- 26:35Speaker 2: work is funny as shit.
- 26:36Speaker 4: No, they didn't know. It was a licensing deal. Got you.
- 26:39Speaker 3: I had a licensing deal and I've done They've I've
- 26:42Speaker 3: had to present my comedy to Netflix or somebody like
- 26:46Speaker 3: Netflix or Netflix associated in that sphere, whether it was
- 26:50Speaker 3: just CrowdWork, whether it was you know what I'm saying.
- 26:52Speaker 3: But then if you're not sure if the crowdwork's gonna work, well,
- 26:55Speaker 3: but the person has twenty I think nineteen hours of
- 26:58Speaker 3: it at that point, nineteen hours of crowd working and
- 27:02Speaker 3: of them missing.
- 27:03Speaker 1: Like okay, all right, do you remember when you called
- 27:05Speaker 1: that couple Seal and Heidi Boom?
- 27:11Speaker 3: Sometimes God just give you one.
- 27:13Speaker 1: You're like, how y'all meet? She was like, well, I was.
- 27:17Speaker 2: I was dating somebody he knew and she was dating
- 27:19Speaker 2: somebody I knew, and both of them went to jail.
- 27:22Speaker 2: I'm like, what the fuck?
- 27:23Speaker 4: Yeah, But it was a it was a brother that
- 27:25Speaker 4: looked like Seal and a big white girl with I
- 27:26Speaker 4: think corn Rolls or something.
- 27:28Speaker 1: I was like, boom.
- 27:31Speaker 3: But so to answer your question, you basically said why Netflix,
- 27:35Speaker 3: So it's it's simple for me. But like, so my
- 27:39Speaker 3: mama getting older and she has an office downstairs at
- 27:42Speaker 3: our house in Lacey, Washington, and she got to go
- 27:45Speaker 3: down these steps to go down in this cold ass basement,
- 27:47Speaker 3: turn on the area heater to get on Netflix or
- 27:50Speaker 3: to get on any streaming platform.
- 27:51Speaker 4: But Netflix came on their old ass smart TV, which's
- 27:57Speaker 4: dumb now, but that was the one.
- 27:58Speaker 3: I was like, it's a smart TV built in so
- 28:01Speaker 3: she will watch Netflix and from the comfort of the couch,
- 28:04Speaker 3: fireplace and all that. So for me, I was like,
- 28:07Speaker 3: this is how my mama gonna see me.
- 28:08Speaker 1: In the comforting yeah, oh wow wow.
- 28:10Speaker 3: So you pray it with all the other stuff you
- 28:12Speaker 3: know about Netflix, and it kind of makes sense. But
- 28:14Speaker 3: if they're not gonna get me a deal, it's like
- 28:15Speaker 3: I gotta go to wherever. But that's why I was like,
- 28:18Speaker 3: I could just stick it on YouTube with the crowd
- 28:20Speaker 3: work joints where there's now seven hundred and fifty thousand people.
- 28:23Speaker 3: I think that would land well. But let's see if
- 28:25Speaker 3: we can get traction with them. Because just literally I
- 28:27Speaker 3: was on calls with agency. They're like, where do you
- 28:30Speaker 3: what platform. I'm like, Netflix, why my mama can't watch
- 28:33Speaker 3: this ship down?
- 28:34Speaker 4: Stick? Like I need her in the living room and
- 28:35Speaker 4: being like my baby did it? I need that and
- 28:38Speaker 4: we and that's what we did.
- 28:39Speaker 2: Gary about to write that down. He's gonna try to
- 28:41Speaker 2: use that to get his Netflix special. You know, Gary
- 28:43Speaker 2: can't get a Netflix special for nothing.
- 28:46Speaker 3: No podcast got here.
- 28:50Speaker 4: It's called Gary and Nate.
- 28:52Speaker 1: I did not know that Gary had the podcast.
- 28:55Speaker 3: Yeah he got uh, this is called Gary on Yeah,
- 28:58Speaker 3: and I got my.
- 28:58Speaker 1: Own funny and ship. You had a definitely special? How
- 29:02Speaker 1: did you break the news the gay right after?
- 29:05Speaker 4: He told me that they turned him down?
- 29:07Speaker 5: Damn.
- 29:07Speaker 3: But I didn't mean to say it that way though,
- 29:09Speaker 3: Like he was like, he, man, I'm waiting to find
- 29:11Speaker 3: out about Netflix now. I had already knew, like I
- 29:13Speaker 3: might be riding in third on mine, and so I
- 29:16Speaker 3: just had to sit there and he told me the
- 29:17Speaker 3: whole thing, like yeah, man, I'm ready for it to
- 29:19Speaker 3: get on there.
- 29:19Speaker 1: Man, I don't know what it's about. And I was like, man,
- 29:21Speaker 1: maybe you know, just keep talking along.
- 29:22Speaker 3: Brother.
- 29:24Speaker 1: You didn't want to give me good news yet I
- 29:26Speaker 1: had to wait.
- 29:26Speaker 3: I had to wait till like the moment of like, yeah,
- 29:30Speaker 3: you want to hear something crazy, man, but you can't.
- 29:32Speaker 3: You can't go.
- 29:33Speaker 4: You can't ask stupid. Though you can't tell nobody, you
- 29:35Speaker 4: can't say you can't ask stupid. He was like, what
- 29:37Speaker 4: you got? What you got? And I was like, yeah,
- 29:39Speaker 4: your Netflix gave me mine.
- 29:40Speaker 1: He was like, that's what's up. I support that, but no,
- 29:48Speaker 1: so so he deserves one.
- 29:51Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 29:55Speaker 7: On the podcast, you said, Gary be taking your staff?
- 29:57Speaker 4: Where do you see that at your podcast?
- 30:00Speaker 3: Talked about it live, so you saw us come to
- 30:02Speaker 3: a resolution, and you want to go back to when
- 30:04Speaker 3: it was fucked up and start to the resolution.
- 30:08Speaker 4: I'll precede this with working.
- 30:11Speaker 3: But what happened with Gary taking this stof this is
- 30:14Speaker 3: the thing and it's my nature to want to see
- 30:19Speaker 3: those around me do well. And I had to have
- 30:22Speaker 3: a full on epiphany in twenty twelve to be like,
- 30:24Speaker 3: stop helping another niggas help yourself. Because I was putting
- 30:27Speaker 3: so much into other people's dreams. I was like, I'm tired.
- 30:29Speaker 3: I ain't even do nothing for myself for that Jesus,
- 30:31Speaker 3: And it's good to have a balance, but I had
- 30:33Speaker 3: lost mind just trying to like I want to see
- 30:35Speaker 3: I'm helping. I'm helping out like at a point I
- 30:37Speaker 3: was helping young black Hollywood thrive. And then the other
- 30:40Speaker 3: thing that would suck is they would get on and
- 30:42Speaker 3: then everybody got amnesia who helped you? And I'm like,
- 30:46Speaker 3: here we go, here go to credits, Here I go,
- 30:48Speaker 3: here I go. Dang this nigga don went he done
- 30:51Speaker 3: popped and forgot you boy. And that's another reason. That's
- 30:54Speaker 3: another reason why I feel some kind of way because
- 30:56Speaker 3: the Netflix credits aren't right, like we got to update them.
- 30:59Speaker 3: They forgot like right hand my guy Trenton Cotton is
- 31:02Speaker 3: not and he was like, yeah, I know, I know,
- 31:03Speaker 3: I'm int a. The whole thing goes by. He ain't,
- 31:07Speaker 3: so shout out to teacap.
- 31:08Speaker 5: But they are going to fix that, you said, then
- 31:11Speaker 5: they can update it.
- 31:12Speaker 4: Yeah. So anyway, Gary would come up to the club.
- 31:16Speaker 3: He did the weekend and the weekend was great, and
- 31:18Speaker 3: I asked him to do my podcast and we had
- 31:20Speaker 3: a great episode and then it was just it was
- 31:23Speaker 3: we just synergized to where it was like, yo, we
- 31:25Speaker 3: should probably do something. And then it turned into like
- 31:27Speaker 3: the Gary and Nate pod and then the CrowdWork Joints
- 31:31Speaker 3: that I was putting out where I'm putting out once
- 31:33Speaker 3: a month or whatever. I like, somebody sent me and
- 31:36Speaker 3: was like, yo, Gary got these things he's doing once
- 31:38Speaker 3: a month now, And I was like, well, I said,
- 31:44Speaker 3: Gary did what? So I didn't say nothing. I just
- 31:47Speaker 3: sat on because we were only filming once a month.
- 31:50Speaker 1: I've been seeing Gary do more CrowdWork. I'm not I'm
- 31:53Speaker 1: not even joking Crowork.
- 31:56Speaker 5: Yeah you'll see it and it just pops up right.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Yeah, white people will always do that to us.

- 33:14Speaker 3: good but uh not. But it's just an And so
- 33:18Speaker 3: I have noticed that as I'm up in the Pacific
- 33:20Speaker 3: Northwest fighting for ways to be an innovator and stay
- 33:23Speaker 3: relevant from way to fuck up there and off the grid, that.
- 33:26Speaker 4: Sometimes people come up and they're like, oh, that sh
- 33:28Speaker 4: is that's the sauce.
- 33:29Speaker 3: You can't I can't protect that, whether he comes close
- 33:32Speaker 3: to me and does it, or stay away.

- 33:34Speaker 3: If somebody sees an editing style or a wave or
- 33:39Speaker 3: I don't know, a dress, or away somebody walks and
- 33:41Speaker 3: talk and it's working, there's nothing you can do. He
- 33:45Speaker 3: from he from there, Well, he's from Ohiobaio.
- 33:48Speaker 1: He lived listening envious Why.
- 33:51Speaker 3: He's literally saying every point of contention from when we

- 34:00Speaker 1: You said that you said you ain't want even baseball.
- 34:04Speaker 3: N Gary was like, nigga, look at me at my
- 34:05Speaker 3: wedding party, he said, nigga, look at me now, you know.
- 34:09Speaker 3: Goddamn Well, like a week, Gary solid nothing to be
- 34:20Speaker 3: saying that anybody is wondering. I'm mad on it. He good, good, okay, now,
- 34:26Speaker 3: but just not doing the podcast no more. But y'all good, No,
- 34:28Speaker 3: I can't. It's because we do first busy, We do
- 34:31Speaker 3: First Mondays, and so he'll come up and do the
- 34:33Speaker 3: club and the door deal is what makes it worth
- 34:37Speaker 3: coming up.
- 34:38Speaker 4: Then we record one or two or three or four
- 34:40Speaker 4: episodes in.
- 34:40Speaker 3: One day or two and then two and it'd be
- 34:43Speaker 3: my only two days off for maybe a fourteenth stretch
- 34:46Speaker 3: of road gigs.
- 34:47Speaker 4: I'm like, Gary, I can't. I can't do it.
- 34:49Speaker 3: So I'm doing I'm doing a comedy festival the eleventh
- 34:52Speaker 3: through the seventeenth because my birthday is the fourteenth in August,
- 34:55Speaker 3: and so he's gonna come up and he's gonna do
- 34:57Speaker 3: Monday the eleventh, and then we're gonna do one more
- 34:59Speaker 3: episode just and we're just busy.
- 35:01Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 35:01Speaker 5: Where's comedy festival is in your hometown?
- 35:03Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 35:03Speaker 4: Yeah, Sin Tacoma.
- 35:04Speaker 1: OK.
- 35:05Speaker 3: Yeah, so and we got Tony Rock anchoring the weekend,
- 35:08Speaker 3: Garyol do the Monday. Then I'm gonna do a Nate
- 35:10Speaker 3: Jackson Presents on Monday. It's one of my concepts where
- 35:13Speaker 3: it's like I'm hosting for thirty five forty minutes and
- 35:16Speaker 3: then all the acts just come out the door.
- 35:18Speaker 4: You don't know who's on stage, kind of like this
- 35:21Speaker 4: a Sunday show.
- 35:23Speaker 2: Yeah, this makes so much because I was listening to
- 35:25Speaker 2: the Gary's pod like last week, and I was wondering
- 35:28Speaker 2: why he was just going in on people who do CrowdWork.
- 35:30Speaker 2: He was like, people who do CrowdWork are lazy and
- 35:33Speaker 2: they don't really know how to write.
- 35:34Speaker 1: But now, so Garrekey on his pod, that's not made up.
- 35:37Speaker 1: That sounds made up. Oh yeah, I did make it up.
- 35:39Speaker 5: It's true.
- 35:40Speaker 3: Hey, yo, I didn't make that up because here's why.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Here's why it's made up.
- 35:48Speaker 3: Because if you do CrowdWork, or attempt to do crowd work,
- 35:52Speaker 3: and you have good moments and you string them together,
- 35:55Speaker 3: you already know you're using traditional stand up structure, but
- 35:58Speaker 3: you're plugging the information you got off the people into that.
- 36:02Speaker 3: So we're writing live and on the spot. And I
- 36:05Speaker 3: think that what's overlooked is the phenomena of why people
- 36:10Speaker 3: are like why growwork Because you're in the crowd and
- 36:13Speaker 3: you're hearing the response. Your brain is processing the same
- 36:16Speaker 3: information and you're like, what I say, what was he
- 36:20Speaker 3: gonna say? And every time the person you like that
- 36:22Speaker 3: does it finds an angle everything like.
- 36:26Speaker 1: That's why it's actually funnier.
- 36:28Speaker 2: It actually shows that that person is funnier because it's
- 36:30Speaker 2: not something that they actually pre wrote.
- 36:31Speaker 1: It's like on the in the spot, on the.
- 36:33Speaker 3: Moment, Yeah, man, put two quotes in front and behind that,
- 36:37Speaker 3: and then let's run with that one. Because there's there
- 36:40Speaker 3: is there is a school of thought that's like that's
- 36:43Speaker 3: or they're not working hard, or they're not they're just
- 36:45Speaker 3: they don't have jokes. So that's why I'm like, okay,
- 36:48Speaker 3: one follow me then to try it and let me
- 36:52Speaker 3: see what you're doing. And I'll be like, no, I
- 36:53Speaker 3: see why you think it's lazy, But I put the works.
- 36:56Speaker 3: I said, I had a room every Thursday night. Can't
- 36:58Speaker 3: no young comic hold it down as a host everything?
- 37:01Speaker 3: You know, there's no pen in the world that can
- 37:03Speaker 3: keep up with that amount of monologues. So I just
- 37:05Speaker 3: started going up with nothing and fucking with people and
- 37:08Speaker 3: it was not good.
- 37:10Speaker 1: Got good. What happens if there's nothing that inspires you
- 37:13Speaker 1: from the crowd.
- 37:14Speaker 3: But I say that, I talk about how there's nothing
- 37:17Speaker 3: and how what a guess who character nothing to talk about?
- 37:20Speaker 3: Slow ass answer, havn't ask crowd? Is this There's funny
- 37:23Speaker 3: even in the lack of it too, you know what
- 37:26Speaker 3: I'm saying. I seen somebody get roasted that had nothing
- 37:29Speaker 3: wrong with them. Somebody was like, nigga, you look easy
- 37:32Speaker 3: to draw. I saw that online. M like, what are
- 37:35Speaker 3: you going to say when the person with a person's
- 37:37Speaker 3: face is mastic, They're like, hey, you look easy to draw.
- 37:39Speaker 3: I was like, see, that's genius. So now there's plenty
- 37:43Speaker 3: of stuff to talk about. And like I said, I
- 37:45Speaker 3: can talk about anything I saw since I woke up
- 37:47Speaker 3: or what's in front of me. So if I got
- 37:49Speaker 3: to start with whatever, like I would have been, I
- 37:51Speaker 3: would have went on stage and been like, y'all see coldplay,
- 37:54Speaker 3: y'all see the dude get caught, Like I can talk
- 37:55Speaker 3: about that at a CrowdWork joint. And now it's like,
- 37:58Speaker 3: who in here cheat? Now we got some segue to
- 38:00Speaker 3: get through, you know what I mean? But like it's
- 38:03Speaker 3: almost a gift when you get something, you're like, Okay,
- 38:06Speaker 3: let's cook with this, right, and I like to find
- 38:09Speaker 3: a few so that I can do callbacks and have
- 38:11Speaker 3: it all come together and jail together. So at the
- 38:14Speaker 3: end you're like, that was that wasn't just that was
- 38:16Speaker 3: an experience. That was just a couple of moments.
- 38:18Speaker 1: You ever had somebody roast you back like and and
- 38:20Speaker 1: actually be good like a nutty professor?
- 38:22Speaker 4: When when who's whose titties over here?
- 38:25Speaker 3: Yes?
- 38:25Speaker 4: Remember when?
- 38:26Speaker 2: Remember when Eddie went off on when Dachapelle was playing
- 38:29Speaker 2: the comedian he came back his buddy love.
- 38:33Speaker 3: Yeah, uh No, I've never had nothing that crazy happen.
- 38:36Speaker 3: But I've had I've had I had a guy. But
- 38:40Speaker 3: here's the thing. A lot of times the person that
- 38:42Speaker 3: wants to do that, they're not on the cadence of
- 38:44Speaker 3: the show. They waiting for you to take a breath
- 38:47Speaker 3: or like, give me get a a segue between two things,
- 38:49Speaker 3: to yell out and try to fuck the think.
- 38:51Speaker 4: But I ain't had it happen yet.
- 38:54Speaker 3: Well, a long time ago on Thursday Night or whatever,
- 38:56Speaker 3: somebody was like, man, I'm like, come up here and
- 38:59Speaker 3: in and this just went back and forth, back and forth,
- 39:01Speaker 3: back and forth, and I lost and I was like, congratulations.
- 39:04Speaker 3: Down Was it a comedian or a random guy? He
- 39:07Speaker 3: beat me because he was like he said, this is
- 39:09Speaker 3: what he said. He said, your mama's pussy so deep.
- 39:11Speaker 3: I went down on her. My ears popped, and that's
- 39:14Speaker 3: what I said. And I didn't have it. I was like, yeah, nigga,
- 39:17Speaker 3: that that's the winner.
- 39:20Speaker 5: You never had anybody get mad like and try to fight.
- 39:24Speaker 3: H No, because I like to be honest with you,
- 39:27Speaker 3: like i'd say, like ninety percent of it is reading
- 39:29Speaker 3: body language. You kind of can look at who who's
- 39:32Speaker 3: with this and now now I should never have to
- 39:35Speaker 3: deal with it. Because the front five to seven rows
- 39:38Speaker 3: of my show is sold online for more Pini and
- 39:42Speaker 3: it's called the roll Zone, so they literally it's like
- 39:46Speaker 3: the splash on, like you only do that if you
- 39:47Speaker 3: want to just blash, like how Gallagher would hit the
- 39:49Speaker 3: water melons.
- 39:49Speaker 1: And so if you're in a row zone, I don't want.
- 39:52Speaker 3: To hear shit like what it is. They'd be mad
- 39:54Speaker 3: if I don't get man, we just our second time coming.
- 39:56Speaker 3: You ain't get it either doing man, come again, bro,
- 39:59Speaker 3: I'll get you.
- 40:00Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
- 40:01Speaker 3: So in general, no, not now, but at the like,
- 40:05Speaker 3: if I'm just doing a show that's not mine or
- 40:07Speaker 3: gigging or something, it's about like who's who, who's with it,
- 40:11Speaker 3: generally eye contact, smiling or at least looking, you know.
- 40:14Speaker 4: Definitely not big enough that I'm like.
- 40:15Speaker 1: That would be about.
- 40:16Speaker 4: That'd be a good that'd be a good fight.
- 40:17Speaker 3: Like I'm not looking for I'm not roasting somebody that
- 40:20Speaker 3: I've got to tussle with six minutes and we don't
- 40:22Speaker 3: know who won.
- 40:23Speaker 1: Big Mac was big as hell, and he said, you
- 40:25Speaker 1: do security as hell.
- 40:27Speaker 3: I do security right.
- 40:29Speaker 1: Why you gotta put Burrow on the end.
- 40:31Speaker 3: I could run away from him skipping, Nigga, I'm not.
- 40:35Speaker 4: Run trying to catch me. No, that's a belly shot.
- 40:39Speaker 1: We out of there. What is what is this paper?
- 40:41Speaker 1: Spin off? I mean the spin off the office?
- 40:44Speaker 4: This is good. These niggas are really good, you guys.
- 40:48Speaker 3: Do you guys just sit up here and be like, man,
- 40:50Speaker 3: we're good at this ship.
- 40:50Speaker 1: Do you know you're the best work doing it for
- 40:54Speaker 1: a while.
- 40:55Speaker 4: No, niggas are good. Just spend I didn't think that
- 40:58Speaker 4: was in your thing.
- 40:58Speaker 3: I don't know. Yeah, So The Office is coming back
- 41:01Speaker 3: and it's called it's called The Paper. I wouldn't necessarily
- 41:04Speaker 3: call it a spin off because it's in the same universe,
- 41:06Speaker 3: the same world, some of the characters are the same,
- 41:09Speaker 3: and so, uh, there is a serious nda around what
- 41:13Speaker 3: we can say and cannot say. But it comes back
- 41:15Speaker 3: on September fourth, and this shit is gonna be hilarious.
- 41:18Speaker 5: I am very very proud of you for doing that.
- 41:21Speaker 6: You are that type of witty ass comedian know that
- 41:24Speaker 6: with totally be great in the Office or the Office universe.
- 41:27Speaker 6: So that's one of my favorite shows, Modern Family, The Office,
- 41:31Speaker 6: And like, I love that you are in that pocket
- 41:34Speaker 6: of wit and that's that feels good to me to
- 41:36Speaker 6: see that you're gonna be doing that working up man.
- 41:38Speaker 4: Thank you and I and I'm I'm just thankful. But
- 41:41Speaker 4: I'm in. I'm in.
- 41:42Speaker 3: I think I'm in more episodes than I'm not. And yes,
- 41:49Speaker 3: because Greg Daniels can see your boy, so uh yes,
- 41:55Speaker 3: and there's and once you're in a sitcom like that,
- 41:57Speaker 3: there's a lot less competition, you know, I mean, like
- 41:59Speaker 3: you you're the person you're in This is when you
- 42:02Speaker 3: get to go do your thing, while now it's twenty
- 42:04Speaker 3: four people waiting to get one spot.
- 42:07Speaker 4: Yeah, literally, you got you're gonna get the.
- 42:09Speaker 3: Rappers, you're gonna get the contracted guys, and you got
- 42:12Speaker 3: the celebrity. Oh they brought their little sister with them. Then,
- 42:15Speaker 3: uh so there's two spots and there's twenty four people
- 42:17Speaker 3: waiting to get tapped to be against each other. On
- 42:19Speaker 3: the others, you'd be like, man, I don't know if
- 42:20Speaker 3: I'm gonna get a episode, but you can see it.
- 42:22Speaker 3: And then here come Michael Blackson wasn't even on the
- 42:25Speaker 3: damn show you what's something about Socca? And he and
- 42:28Speaker 3: because he's nick boy, you don't get no burn shout
- 42:31Speaker 3: out the mic. But that's just that's how you get four.
- 42:34Speaker 5: That's how I go.
- 42:35Speaker 3: Then you go out and put the cape on somebody
- 42:36Speaker 3: because they asked you to. You gotta we only shoot
- 42:39Speaker 3: two weeks, all them episodes two weeks, so I'm in
- 42:41Speaker 3: trouble for three days.
- 42:42Speaker 4: Nigga. That's devastating.
- 42:43Speaker 2: But the beauty is when you blow up, like the
- 42:45Speaker 2: way you're blowing up now, like they'll invite you back
- 42:48Speaker 2: and act like you got your start there.
- 42:51Speaker 3: And I'll be like, man, I'm so thankful, shout out
- 42:56Speaker 3: the nine elevens.
- 42:57Speaker 1: But the paper is not a reboot though.
- 42:59Speaker 3: It's I mean, I don't know what the right word
- 43:02Speaker 3: is talk about it that the press, but I'm really
- 43:06Speaker 3: I don't know what the word is for. Like this
- 43:10Speaker 3: was also happening, but now we'll show you this other player.
- 43:13Speaker 3: Just imagine the production company that was in the office,
- 43:17Speaker 3: you know, it was alway zooming in and all that.
- 43:18Speaker 3: Just imagine they went across the street to another address
- 43:21Speaker 3: or something, because that's kind of I don't I don't,
- 43:24Speaker 3: I don't know, because usually spin off it takes one
- 43:28Speaker 3: character and it follows them, you know what I'm saying,
- 43:31Speaker 3: And this ain't that. This isn't famin matters, And then
- 43:34Speaker 3: we just follow Erkle and like, no, this is like
- 43:37Speaker 3: there's characters from the other one in this one. It's
- 43:39Speaker 3: a beautiful Greg Daniels did it again. That's all right.
- 43:42Speaker 4: Then the showrunners and that whole team, like I was
- 43:44Speaker 4: in awe, just like good some of the.
- 43:46Speaker 3: Stuff they found, the idiosyncrasies of how funny something simple
- 43:52Speaker 3: could be, and and the fact that they were like
- 43:55Speaker 3: malleable enough to get it some big words. Some of
- 43:58Speaker 3: the stuff that was that they made funny, that they
- 44:01Speaker 3: took the time and budget to spend time, like how
- 44:05Speaker 3: to just move like flip a lever. Flipping a lever
- 44:10Speaker 3: wasn't just flipping. Like there's a way to pick these
- 44:12Speaker 3: glasses up and it's funny, and they went through every
- 44:16Speaker 3: way like so you want to pick these glasses up.
- 44:19Speaker 3: You want to pick these glasses up like they I'm
- 44:21Speaker 3: talking about every way to inflect your voice. And they
- 44:24Speaker 3: took the time to be like do the game at
- 44:26Speaker 3: this time the game? But this time I was like,
- 44:28Speaker 3: I did not know that this show was like this
- 44:31Speaker 3: fine tooth, like they take every moment and and it's
- 44:35Speaker 3: every moment is I guess you know, Manicure to be
- 44:38Speaker 3: as funny as it can be, even though it's as dry,
- 44:41Speaker 3: but it's hilarious.
- 44:44Speaker 1: Yes, good, you can't you can't gotta be man.
- 44:48Speaker 5: Episodes that can't come back out right now?
- 44:51Speaker 3: You know, I.
- 44:53Speaker 5: Love the show. I love it man, and you you
- 44:56Speaker 5: stream as well.
- 44:57Speaker 1: Sometimes you know as much as I can.
- 45:00Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, But god damn you you
- 45:02Speaker 3: you you don't realize how much shit you don't want
- 45:05Speaker 3: to show until you're showing it, you know what I'm saying.
- 45:08Speaker 3: I walked past some mail on the counter and somebody
- 45:10Speaker 3: was like, got your address, nigga? I like, yeah, what
- 45:15Speaker 3: because I posit zoom in like I already stay that ass.
- 45:19Speaker 3: I like fuck that. I was going to my office
- 45:22Speaker 3: and there's a billboard outside and somebody was like, I
- 45:24Speaker 3: know where that billboard is. I'm like, man, fuck. So
- 45:26Speaker 3: there's so many like camera down then you just want
- 45:29Speaker 3: to talk to somebody. They see the mic on you like,
- 45:31Speaker 3: oh you monked up? Not right now?
- 45:33Speaker 4: Good right now.
- 45:34Speaker 3: So so it's like I have to like be like, okay,
- 45:37Speaker 3: from this time to this time, I'm gonna stream. I
- 45:39Speaker 3: thought it was just gonna be like just put the
- 45:40Speaker 3: camera on, let's go for some of your life. You
- 45:42Speaker 3: don't want to you know what I'm saying. You don't
- 45:44Speaker 3: want to show a lot of your life.
- 45:45Speaker 4: I think, you know.
- 45:46Speaker 3: Plus, it's a different kind of oncause I'm realizing when
- 45:51Speaker 3: you go live, it's a lot of fucking reading. Yeah,
- 45:54Speaker 3: people don't really like you're reading the equivalent of like
- 45:58Speaker 3: nine Harry Potter chapters just to interact with your chat.
- 46:02Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying, so I can do it,
- 46:05Speaker 4: but it's a it's a thing I have to flip. Now.
- 46:08Speaker 1: Last week I went to Twitch headquarters in San Francisco, and.
- 46:12Speaker 4: I was like, what were we doing? What you want
- 46:14Speaker 4: to do?
- 46:14Speaker 3: Because there's an entire industry of comedy where people are
- 46:16Speaker 3: living big lives and they're perfect for live streaming, but
- 46:20Speaker 3: we need like can we work? Yeah, and that app is,
- 46:23Speaker 3: that app is, that's a beautiful app, but that that
- 46:26Speaker 3: shit is that the entry level on that is so high.
- 46:30Speaker 3: It's expensive to get on Instagram, you need a phone,
- 46:33Speaker 3: which you already have. If you want to be a
- 46:35Speaker 3: creator on Twitter, you got to have like several different
- 46:38Speaker 3: apps which have their own learning curve, whether it's something
- 46:41Speaker 3: for overlay, something for alert, something for the chat.
- 46:44Speaker 4: Then you got to have a setup.
- 46:46Speaker 3: Like there's like there's a lot even like let's say
- 46:48Speaker 3: you just want to stream your like I Rail from
- 46:51Speaker 3: a phone, Well, now you got to go buy Samsung
- 46:53Speaker 3: Galaxy twenty five. Then things it's like eleven hundred. Then
- 46:56Speaker 3: you got to get too simcars, Like the entry level
- 46:58Speaker 3: it is expensive, like a whole nun Now it's even
- 47:01Speaker 3: if it's not, it's just expensive.
- 47:04Speaker 4: Then let's tell you.
- 47:05Speaker 3: Let's say you go out and there's a lot of
- 47:07Speaker 3: you go maybe a Yankees game, and I'm gonna stream
- 47:09Speaker 3: or something if they'll let you. But somewhere where it's
- 47:12Speaker 3: high populated, maybe maybe the parade or something. Everybody on
- 47:15Speaker 3: the cell tower your signal dropping. Now your feet is cutting.
- 47:19Speaker 3: So if you get tired of that, the next the
- 47:21Speaker 3: next step up from the phone, it's called a live
- 47:25Speaker 3: you solo pro back So no, yeah, yeah, there's a
- 47:31Speaker 3: backpack or like a Wi Fi. Yeah, so there's like
- 47:34Speaker 3: two or three motems or something. That ship is like
- 47:37Speaker 3: six thousand dollars. So you're telling me just to stay
- 47:40Speaker 3: on the app and stay like it's like that who
- 47:42Speaker 3: got that? When young creator just got six thousand sitting
- 47:46Speaker 3: right there. So then the next step of is a
- 47:49Speaker 3: thirty thousand back I see like DDG and all them
- 47:51Speaker 3: then them them backpacks.
- 47:52Speaker 4: Is thirty thousand dollars.
- 47:53Speaker 3: That's the backpack that Yeah, if it's blue or something
- 47:57Speaker 3: or hot green, I think that bag is shit. Third
- 48:00Speaker 3: thousand dollars.
- 48:00Speaker 1: So it's a real investment.
- 48:03Speaker 4: But you does it pay?
- 48:05Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 48:08Speaker 4: Wow, it pays?
- 48:09Speaker 5: By long do you have to be on those sites
- 48:12Speaker 5: in order to make the money.
- 48:14Speaker 3: No, you get you go as soon as you go partner.
- 48:16Speaker 3: I made partner in four days. And if you go
- 48:19Speaker 3: to make a partner, just well there's a thing that
- 48:22Speaker 3: you know. It says, it's just like any other monetization
- 48:24Speaker 3: where they're like you need this many viewers, this many
- 48:25Speaker 3: hours or whatever. But you can also just send an
- 48:27Speaker 3: email and be like, here's my numbers on other platforms
- 48:29Speaker 3: and they be like, oh ship got So you're monetized
- 48:32Speaker 3: right away, which gives you access to a certain percentage
- 48:35Speaker 3: of your advertising and a certain percentage of your subs.
- 48:39Speaker 3: And the subs is why. That's why it makes sense.
- 48:42Speaker 3: You want to know the sauce. I deed the sauce
- 48:45Speaker 3: and this is how. This is how it happens. I
- 48:49Speaker 3: like to share and not right. So that's why I said,
- 48:54Speaker 3: if somebody gonna take something I'm doing and do it,
- 48:57Speaker 3: I didn't make it that hard to get it.
- 48:59Speaker 4: Yeah, so I'll ask you first so that you understand
- 49:06Speaker 4: the power of it.
- 49:07Speaker 3: Right. So, in my opinion, I think the I r
- 49:09Speaker 3: L clips are the highest algorithm clips on social media.
- 49:13Speaker 3: Right now, it seems like it ain't sketches. It used
- 49:15Speaker 3: to be sketches. Now, it's like, so, like, what do
- 49:18Speaker 3: you remember from the BET Awards this year?
- 49:22Speaker 4: Exactly?
- 49:23Speaker 1: That's a clip?
- 49:26Speaker 3: Right?
- 49:26Speaker 4: What do you remember from Shane Gillis at.
- 49:29Speaker 1: The spis his monologue which is a clip?
- 49:33Speaker 3: So like Joe Rogan's clip page is almost six times
- 49:37Speaker 3: bigger than the full episode page. Right, nobody gonna sit
- 49:40Speaker 3: through three hours and just watch the clip? And what
- 49:43Speaker 3: makes twitch so genius that anybody watching your stream has
- 49:46Speaker 3: there's a button on it that says clip anyone. Why
- 49:50Speaker 3: any viewer can make a sixty second clip? Now that
- 49:52Speaker 3: could be bad if you're doing something like gotcha.
- 49:54Speaker 1: Ass headlines or they make the headline, don't be having
- 49:57Speaker 1: nothing to do with the video, right?
- 49:58Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 49:59Speaker 1: Yeah, you got your headlined and you watch it like
- 50:01Speaker 1: that didn't happen?
- 50:02Speaker 4: You didn't. Yeah?
- 50:03Speaker 3: I saw some of them were like somebody curves Cristy
- 50:05Speaker 3: on and I watched it. I was like, she ain't
- 50:06Speaker 3: even happen.
- 50:07Speaker 1: It's just having fun.
- 50:08Speaker 3: What the fun?
- 50:09Speaker 4: But if you know that that's what it is, then
- 50:13Speaker 4: then now why not why not be strategic?
- 50:16Speaker 3: Then? Yeah, you don't got eight hours of stream, you
- 50:18Speaker 3: got two hours, so and that two hours, I'm gonna
- 50:21Speaker 3: go here. I'm gonna go there. I'm talk to my brother,
- 50:24Speaker 3: my son or my whatever we're gonna have. There will
- 50:26Speaker 3: be chances for moments, and then you can overproduce it
- 50:28Speaker 3: where you're like somebody gonna kick in the door and
- 50:30Speaker 3: it's going down and you know what I'm saying. But
- 50:32Speaker 3: you want the clips because once you get the clip,
- 50:35Speaker 3: that goes YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, it goes every other platform.
- 50:39Speaker 3: And so then you build your audience and then they're
- 50:42Speaker 3: on and they subscribe or just coming on, they watch ads,
- 50:45Speaker 3: they have no choice, and you get paid, and then
- 50:48Speaker 3: from your station in the game, you don't. You're not
- 50:51Speaker 3: gonna get that basic percentage. You're like, I'm aryotte Man,
- 50:55Speaker 3: you're talking about set up.
- 50:56Speaker 1: The breakfast club. I r L goddamnit, I'm ready. Are
- 50:59Speaker 1: you read You needed that? Nate, Yes, let's do it.
- 51:01Speaker 3: Yeah, get your money, Well check out you.
- 51:04Speaker 1: I want to have a more question.
- 51:05Speaker 2: What do you want new fans who see you for
- 51:07Speaker 2: the first time on Netflix to walk away thinking.
- 51:12Speaker 4: I got a new top five.
- 51:15Speaker 3: Because for like twenty years, everybody says the same five
- 51:18Speaker 3: names in rotation, and I think that it's time that
- 51:21Speaker 3: we shake that up.
- 51:21Speaker 4: A little bit. Basketball got new stars.
- 51:24Speaker 3: I'm not saying there's not a place for other people
- 51:26Speaker 3: and we can all eat, but let's work together, you
- 51:29Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. And maybe it's a challenge, but
- 51:32Speaker 3: I would like to see some of the og black
- 51:35Speaker 3: comics who've made a lot of money in the game
- 51:40Speaker 3: reach back and create opportunities for the rest of the game.
- 51:46Speaker 4: There's Uptown, I guess it's closing.
- 51:49Speaker 3: It's not black owned, but it's black man And so
- 51:52Speaker 3: now I think there are three black owned clubs in America.
- 51:57Speaker 3: I'm the biggest at two hundred and seventy seats. I
- 52:00Speaker 3: think when I look around on your wall and see
- 52:02Speaker 3: all the successful African Americans and every dollar that got
- 52:05Speaker 3: pulled down, that it makes no sense that we don't
- 52:07Speaker 3: have more brick and mortars to do the craft we build.
- 52:10Speaker 3: Why doesn't Martin have wandas? Why doesn't you know what
- 52:15Speaker 3: I'm saying, why does Why isn't there a heart Kevin
- 52:18Speaker 3: Hart comedy club? God damn you do comedy. Make some
- 52:22Speaker 3: money off the drinks for you got a liquor, sell
- 52:25Speaker 3: only that in your club. But there should be And
- 52:28Speaker 3: if that's not it, then let's just get with the
- 52:30Speaker 3: let's get with the people who open businesses left and right,
- 52:32Speaker 3: and and then say look here, you use my name,
- 52:34Speaker 3: my likeness, and I want some ownership whatever, and then
- 52:37Speaker 3: and but there should be that makes sense.
- 52:39Speaker 1: Joe Rogan got the comedy club in Austin.
- 52:41Speaker 4: Now did the Mothership?
- 52:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe Dave is building one.
- 52:45Speaker 4: Das name.
- 52:48Speaker 3: And and and so there may be four. But that's
- 52:52Speaker 3: if you think about all of the money. Every time
- 52:55Speaker 3: you like, who's been in the top three in comedy
- 52:58Speaker 3: since I'm nineteen seventy, The majority of the top three
- 53:05Speaker 3: top gross early I'm not even talking about whether you
- 53:07Speaker 3: like them or not. I'm talking about the highest grossing
- 53:09Speaker 3: actor of the year was black. Whether it was Richard
- 53:13Speaker 3: Pryor or Red Fox or Cat or Mike Epps or
- 53:19Speaker 3: Kevin Hart or Martin or like. And if it wasn't one,
- 53:22Speaker 3: it was an entity like King's of Comedy or now
- 53:25Speaker 3: eighty five South Like, why let's get to eighty five
- 53:28Speaker 3: comedy clubs. Let's get like, let's expand and grow our
- 53:32Speaker 3: industry because the people want to come to shows.
- 53:36Speaker 4: And then you control the butt, you control the dollar.
- 53:38Speaker 3: There's no more you in the back getting ripped off
- 53:40Speaker 3: or you know, they don't treat you right, because now
- 53:42Speaker 3: you know how to be treating you know what I'm saying.
- 53:45Speaker 3: And I want us to get it right too, because
- 53:47Speaker 3: I have done other black owned clubs and been like,
- 53:49Speaker 3: come on, y'all, yeah, I don't really, I don't play
- 53:53Speaker 3: like that. We do we you know, we run a
- 53:55Speaker 3: good show, but it's a lot to juggle the career
- 53:58Speaker 3: and the club and make sure that it's still black excellence.
- 54:00Speaker 3: But my team is thorough, so we hold it down
- 54:03Speaker 3: and if it works in one place, it should, in
- 54:05Speaker 3: theory work in another place. So I think that that
- 54:08Speaker 3: if I could leave something with with the with the
- 54:10Speaker 3: entertainers that are watching, man, what's up? Open something? Open something.
- 54:16Speaker 3: Let's get some comedy back on regular TV. Let's make
- 54:19Speaker 3: comedy very easy to consume again. When I was a kid,
- 54:22Speaker 3: you could go home and comed View was on and
- 54:24Speaker 3: and and Comedy Central had specials, and like now you
- 54:27Speaker 3: can't find no stand up unless you put it on.
- 54:30Speaker 3: I gotta find it, you know what I'm saying. So
- 54:32Speaker 3: we need to get to a place where the deaf
- 54:34Speaker 3: jams and the comedy like it feels like that again. Yes.
- 54:37Speaker 3: So if there's something I could leave with the people,
- 54:39Speaker 3: I don't know. Man, just laugh, live your love, live
- 54:40Speaker 3: your life to the fullest. Uh, you know, and you
