  Speaker 4: Okay, breakfast club.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Because we're trying to lose weight.

  Speaker 5: Yeah, man, I went, I went fruit and veggie raw
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: at the May first, and I lost thirty eight point
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: five pounds. So I'm just like melting and so now
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: I'm like trying to introduce, you know, some white meats
• 6:16

• 6:18
  Speaker 5: too much chicken.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: Going to buy. Everybody like were eating with you.
• 6:22
  Speaker 5: So I basically just eat around the outside of the

  Speaker 2: And so I've just been melting away a scare. Was
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: it a scale or you just wanted to get healthy
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: or the reason why I want to see where my
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: dick connect to my body. Okay, that makes sense. Yeah,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: I have a joke about it.
• 6:39
  Speaker 5: I'm like, I can see the first seven inches, but
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: that first five I can't see that part.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: So that's a joke. But no, I just wanted to
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: lose some weight. Man I had. We lost, Teddy Ray,
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: we lost.
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: I were laughing at that. Now I'm laughing. I'm still
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: having the big jokes.
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: They did the math.
• 6:58
  Speaker 7: To the anyway half but recipe.
• 7:05
  Speaker 8: But you know what I noticed in your special you
• 7:07
  Speaker 8: talk about it a lot, your weight and eating, and
• 7:10
  Speaker 8: you got a lot of food jokes or whatever.
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: You had it like four minutes of to just break
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: the ice.
• 7:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, for sure.
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: And then they're like, well that's what we're gonna take
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: for the for the national clip. That's gonna be your trailer.
• 7:20
  Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, so now, okay, what about all the
• 7:22
  Speaker 5: other stuff I said?
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: But how does it impact now?
• 7:25
  Speaker 8: Because now you you know, you lost lost a lot
• 7:27
  Speaker 8: of weighting and I guess and you're still coming down, right,
• 7:29
  Speaker 8: So how does that affect your comedy now?
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: Like you're still doing the food jokes?
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: You can I mean, it's not I don't have I
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: had food jokes, but it was more about weight lost
• 7:38
  Speaker 5: jokes and temptation and you can have that at anyway,
• 7:41
  Speaker 5: you know what I'm.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: Saying, Like it was it was crafted or I was like,
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: I think I'm losing weight, but I can still get
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: these jokes off, you know what I mean.
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: But at the end of it, I write a lot,
• 7:47
  Speaker 5: and that's what that's what That's what the crowd work,
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: and you're writing on the spot, So just.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: Switch it up.
• 7:53
  Speaker 7: Is there anything that you stay away from, like, you know,
• 7:55
  Speaker 7: because I feel like the world is so sensitive now,
• 7:57
  Speaker 7: Like you say one thing, you know we're gonna cancel
• 7:59
  Speaker 7: you it that you stay away from.
• 8:00
  Speaker 2: It, you be like, fuck it. I kind of am
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: with everything, but I will I will tread lightly.
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: Around, uh, you know, some politics stuff because it's they've
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: just been so it's so magnetized, you know that at
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: a point people are like, I don't even care what
• 8:18
  Speaker 5: he's talk about no more, because.
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: He's not He's obviously not. You know.
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: I'm like, man, just chill out. I want everybody to
• 8:22
  Speaker 5: laugh first, right. That's that's why it's called super funny.
• 8:25
  Speaker 5: I wasn't That's the theme of the show love, love hard,
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: eat good, and laugh, laugh to your fullest.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: So that's the thing. That's what that's what it is.
• 8:34
  Speaker 7: I say, do you think people miss the funny and
• 8:36
  Speaker 7: things because they want to cancel you? They are looking
• 8:39
  Speaker 7: for something to be hurt or affected by? Because I
• 8:41
  Speaker 7: remember one time you just laughed. It wasn't It could
• 8:44
  Speaker 7: be a black joke, a white joke, a gay joke,
• 8:46
  Speaker 7: a stranger. It didn't matter if it was funny, it
• 8:48
  Speaker 7: was funny. But now I feel like people look for
• 8:50
  Speaker 7: something to be like, I'm gonna cancel you off that
• 8:52
  Speaker 7: word right there?
• 8:52
  Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, depend on the word but yeah, or
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: the term or the joke.
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: I think it depends on how you saying it right,
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: Like what I can what I can stand the least
• 9:02
  Speaker 5: is when a comic takes the time to craft a
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: beautiful joke, and I mean a beautiful joke.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: Where it like meanders and then you get hit.
• 9:08
  Speaker 5: With the punch and then you still be like, but
• 9:11
  Speaker 5: the topic was stead of that, Hey man, chill out,
• 9:14
  Speaker 5: that's a good ass joke. Also, I think we're shifting
• 9:17
  Speaker 5: back some and I don't want to say it on
• 9:19
  Speaker 5: a platform so big that people are.
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: Like, oh, you think we won't cancel you too. I
• 9:23
  Speaker 2: don't need that smoke.
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: But I'm just saying I think there's been a shift
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: since maybe twenty nineteen, twenty twenty saying. And so there's
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: been some pushback people like Schultz and people like Chappelle
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: that are like, I'm man, fuck all that comedy first,
• 9:36
  Speaker 5: then we'll talk about what's next.
• 9:38
  Speaker 8: That's the key to that though, right, Like, if you
• 9:40
  Speaker 8: are gonna say anything that's gonna be even a little
• 9:44
  Speaker 8: bit controversy, it has to be funny fun so people
• 9:46
  Speaker 8: can't be worried. It gotta be so funny to the
• 9:48
  Speaker 8: point where they only want cancel you.
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: Man, that is funny. R. Yeah.
• 9:52
  Speaker 5: I had a joke about a Vietnamese car dealer and
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: it don't sounds ridiculous. I'm from Tacoma, watch and we
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: kick it with the Vietnamese, Cambodians and Moons, black people,
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: we all, everyone's all, we all mixing. So when you
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: go gamble, the dealer gonna be Vietnamese. And they were
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: teaching me words and so I started picking up on
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: the dillect to be like do my and stuff like that.
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: So I had this joke of that that means fuck you,
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: and so I picked.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Up on that this.
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: Is uh Uma is fuck you, and dou Miama is
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: fuck your mama, and then uh uh. The Cambodians they
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: be like they ow my something like that, and that
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: means like pussy ass. So they said that a lot,
• 10:28
  Speaker 5: and I just start hearing it, not knowing what it was.
• 10:30
  Speaker 5: I'm like, why y'all keep saying, do ma, what is doma?
• 10:33
  Speaker 5: And they're like, oh, yeah, me fuck you. I'm like,
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: what the fuck. So I wrote a joke about how
• 10:37
  Speaker 5: I had found out, but I put it after I
• 10:39
  Speaker 5: hit a jackpot. So basically she was calling me bow bow,
• 10:42
  Speaker 5: which was my interpretation of her saying nigga to my face.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: And I didn't know.
• 10:46
  Speaker 5: So I slowly revealed that they've been being racist to me,
• 10:49
  Speaker 5: and then I get her some get back the dealer
• 10:51
  Speaker 5: and I say she acts black, so she I said, well, okay,
• 10:55
  Speaker 5: you act black then, and she's like, I don't know
• 10:57
  Speaker 5: my father. I'm like, bitch, that's.
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: You want to sound. Don't try. She's about to come
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: in like.
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: Stop that triggered her.
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry, man.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: I was watching one of your specials before one of

• 11:38
  Speaker 1: don't get mad at me.
• 11:39
  Speaker 6: I'm not the one who fed you.
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: Me In the comments like pot calling the kettle black,
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: I'm like, nah, that's a little pot called a big
• 11:51
  Speaker 5: But the point of the Vietnamese joke was that same joke.
• 11:55
  Speaker 5: JFL was like, we can't have you up here because
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: you're saying that joke.
• 11:58

  Speaker 6: On a while and now like, how did all of
• 12:54
  Speaker 6: those stuff things happen?
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, Uh, that that's not my start. My start.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: I just got dared to do comedy while I was
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: in college and I went on stage and I was like, oh,
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: this was kind of good, and so I stuck with it,
• 13:05
  Speaker 5: and then I moved immediately to LA and I was
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: there for like six years, and then I was like
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: I need to go home and stack some bread. So
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: I started like twelve shows and then I combined into
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: one show and it was like the biggest show. It
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: was like Thursday Night was like four hundred and twenty
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: people for like eight years. It was massive and in Tacoma, Yeah,
• 13:25
  Speaker 5: downtown Tacoma. And if it's really like eighty people every
• 13:29
  Speaker 5: Thursday in case, I RS is listening.
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: So it was like it was hella.
• 13:33
  Speaker 5: But then I stacked and came back, and so then
• 13:35
  Speaker 5: different opportunities started to kind of come together, and so
• 13:39
  Speaker 5: I had an opportunity to work with Jesse Collins Entertainment,
• 13:41
  Speaker 5: and that's how I did the crowd work. And I
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: think it was just a plug from Dray because you know,
• 13:46
  Speaker 5: I do Monday nights at the Improv and shout out
• 13:49
  Speaker 5: to Dray and so.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: That's how I got into that. But the way.
• 13:55
  Speaker 5: Hollywood, man, you'll have a day where you're like, yo,
• 13:57
  Speaker 5: I made it. You'll be stay in on a table,
• 14:01
  Speaker 5: fist pumping the air between Tony Rock and Chris Rock
• 14:06
  Speaker 5: like you know what I'm saying, Like it would feel
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: like a million bucks. And then the next day you're like, damn,

  Speaker 5: I gotta perform in this dungeon. It's not it's not
• 14:13
  Speaker 5: it's up there, but you gotta do it all. And

  Speaker 6: You only did four episodes a while out, Yeah, but.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: They were big ones though.
• 15:14
  Speaker 5: They were big ones though, like I did Erkabaddu episode.

• 15:50
  Speaker 5: the reason I only got the four and I'd like
• 15:52
  Speaker 5: to say this on this platform. On the Ericabad episode,
• 15:56
  Speaker 5: she came and she was like, yo, let me meet
• 15:58
  Speaker 5: the people. I'm gonna be on the episode with it.

  Speaker 5: And the eighty five South guys all stood around on
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: the sound stage with now and she's like, here's what

• 16:27
  Speaker 5: She's like, there's gonna be a part where I go

  Speaker 5: part of the show happens. I walk out, I put

  Speaker 5: the thing on her. Everything happens as planned. After it's over,
• 16:42
  Speaker 5: exacs come up and they're.

• 17:23
  Speaker 2: I was like, actually, take to throw the thing.
• 17:24
  Speaker 5: You want to go out and they were like, no, man,
• 17:25
  Speaker 5: I don't want to go. I'm like, okay, Well she
• 17:28
  Speaker 5: asked like I'm not gonna. I don't want to not

  Speaker 2: You don't never see Nick. You got too many shows.
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: It was shooting six shows. I could not believe. Bro.

  Speaker 5: He shot walling out, then he went to a g
• 18:09
  Speaker 5: T then he shot a car show.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: Then I was like, this is tired. Now. See Nick, when.
• 18:18
  Speaker 7: With the successor of social media for you, how did
• 18:20
  Speaker 7: that affect? Did that happen because you planned it out
• 18:22
  Speaker 7: or were people just taking clips and you were just like,
• 18:24
  Speaker 7: what the is going on?
• 18:25
  Speaker 5: No, man, I've been grinding for a minute. And so
• 18:27
  Speaker 5: that's what I was saying when I had the Thursday Night.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: For so many years, you could come to the Pacific
• 18:31
  Speaker 2: Northwest and be like.
• 18:32
  Speaker 5: Okay, there's a guy out there that got the sauce right,
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: And so what happens a lot of times if somebody's
• 18:36
  Speaker 5: further in their career than you, they'd be like, let
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: me just get a little bit of that and take
• 18:40
  Speaker 5: that with me. So there was a lot of my
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: recipe out ahead of me before I had the exposure.
• 18:44
  Speaker 7: They're stealing your stuff, you know, they were stealing your stuff.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: A man, I don't want to call nobody no thief
• 18:50
  Speaker 5: without them here to defend themselves, you know what I'm saying.
• 18:53
  Speaker 5: And also to be choked or whatever happens after that.
• 18:57
  Speaker 5: They don't have to There's ways to catch people. All
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: I had to do was wait, be patient, work hard.
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: Like you said, the Netflix special speaks for itself. It's
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: like watching Elvis for years and then you see the
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: dude who showed them the legs, like them that nigga
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: got the legs. You know what I'm saying so uh
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: that that made me forget the damn Yeah. So one
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: of the homies, not one of homies. Several people like
• 19:22
  Speaker 5: Matt Rife, Roy Wood and Rodney Perry. They're all like
• 19:26
  Speaker 5: and shout out to Rodney Perry, but they're like, yo,
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: you need to get on get on TikTok. And I
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: was like, I'm exhausted right now. I am not getting
• 19:34
  Speaker 5: another app, you know how that right? And get on
• 19:37
  Speaker 5: get on the boom boom like I'm not getting on
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: doogle boom boom nigga, Like I'm done.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: I'm happy with my I g set up my Facebook.
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: Shit cool, I'm not hiring a nigga to put me
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: on doodle boom bloo me. And that's how it sound.
• 19:47
  Speaker 5: We first here because it's always a something you on
• 19:53
  Speaker 5: the t app Right now, they got my house address and.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: My damn.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: That I know, not that I know unless somebody ate
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: Jackson on the t app.
• 20:06
  Speaker 9: Man, I'm not on there. Sorry, this is a tough room.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Post post him on there. Maybe they'll tell you where
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: he is.
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: Shigeah, okay, okay, I wasn't dancing on that guy. But no,
• 20:31
  Speaker 5: I said, I don't want to do another app, and
• 20:33
  Speaker 5: so I got on reluctantly. I got on TikTok, and
• 20:37
  Speaker 5: I don't know if it's still exactly like this, but
• 20:39
  Speaker 5: at the time, like people were willing to actually follow
• 20:42
  Speaker 5: because people's ig be set up at somebody gotta really
• 20:45
  Speaker 5: somebody gotta you gotta see twelve good things from somebody,
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: be like, you know what, I'm gonna give you a
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: fun Like on TikTok, it just felt like, Hi, I follow,
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying, So it jumped for It
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: jumped from me like from zero to like twenty five thousand,
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: and like, I don't.
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: Know, I'd say, a month, what was you posting this CrowdWork?
• 21:05
  Speaker 5: No, I was posting anything, but I didn't want to
• 21:07
  Speaker 5: show understand up you know what I'm saying. And plus
• 21:10
  Speaker 5: I was like I was trying to shoot it and
• 21:12
  Speaker 5: I would shoot good and then the sound be fucked
• 21:13
  Speaker 5: up where the sound be good and then the shot
• 21:15
  Speaker 5: be fucked up. Then I just committed to it and
• 21:18
  Speaker 5: got the system down at my own club and then
• 21:21
  Speaker 5: I was like, Okay, now I can consistently do stuff.
• 21:23
  Speaker 5: But at the time there was no apps for captioning
• 21:26
  Speaker 5: or AI, so you had to actually sit there and
• 21:29
  Speaker 5: transcribe yourself. It took three four hours to do a
• 21:31
  Speaker 5: two minute video, and so I was like, I'm exhausted
• 21:34
  Speaker 5: doing this shit.
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: No, this is free.
• 21:38
  Speaker 5: But I could look on the app and see like
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: other people exploding, where I'm like, okay, if I post
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: my shit, because I already know I'm great at that,
• 21:45
  Speaker 5: if that worked, if that clip I just saw work
• 21:48
  Speaker 5: and I know what I'm holding.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: If I could just post this, you know what I'm saying.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: And so it just started to catch, and so it
• 21:54
  Speaker 5: kept catching and kept catching and kept catching. So now
• 21:56
  Speaker 5: we're at four point five maybe four point six million
• 21:59
  Speaker 5: or something.
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: You think that era is dead because I feel like
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: there was a moment where it was like the you
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: and the Matt Rice and the Andrews Shoulzes that was
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: just putting their comedy up and it just took off
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: of them.
• 22:11
  Speaker 6: I don't know if it was COVID because everybody was
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: sitting there.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: I don't know what it was, but something just caused
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: comedians to take off because of social media.
• 22:18
  Speaker 5: It wasn't It wasn't COVID. For me, I was trying
• 22:21
  Speaker 5: to save my club, that wasn't it. I didn't get
• 22:24
  Speaker 5: to post until like right after I was like I
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: can finally open and get situated. No, I don't think
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: it's I don't think that's over. I think people's interest
• 22:32
  Speaker 5: to be entertained is I would say it's limitless. They
• 22:35
  Speaker 5: say during the Great Depression when everybody broke, the last
• 22:38
  Speaker 5: thing people spent money on was going to theaters and
• 22:40
  Speaker 5: stuff like if I'm gonna go out, I'm gonna go
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: out having fun. So no, I don't think I think
• 22:44
  Speaker 5: it's an insation. But doesn't it feel like it like,
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: no matter how much content you make, there's somebody.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: To receive it, and they're gonna get me more.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: So No, I feel like it just be consistent and
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: be good and be good consistently, and I think people
• 22:57
  Speaker 5: find you, Like people just need to use the internet
• 22:59
  Speaker 5: as a time the show, and that's it.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: What's had more impact on your career the YouTube crowd
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: work stuff or the Netflix special?
• 23:09
  Speaker 5: That's not fair because Netflix has only been on since
• 23:12
  Speaker 5: the eighth gotcha, But I know I've I've had my
• 23:16
  Speaker 5: because when you do a special, you get to have
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: a conversation at I think ten days and then another
• 23:21
  Speaker 5: one at twenty eight days. About the numbers other than
• 23:23
  Speaker 5: that you guys know, Netflix don't share no numbers, like yeah,
• 23:27
  Speaker 5: and so my first conversation with them it was it
• 23:30
  Speaker 5: did massive, like it it's like double platinum, like it did.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Really good on the platform.
• 23:36
  Speaker 5: And I'm getting stopped by people in the airports and
• 23:38
  Speaker 5: that was happening before. So I'm trying to gauge, like,
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: so where you see me from where you see and
• 23:41
  Speaker 5: they won't admit, like everybody want to be I've been
• 23:44
  Speaker 5: following since smiling out, like what episode, nigga, Nobody want
• 23:48
  Speaker 5: to say that. I mean, I saw you last night,
• 23:50
  Speaker 5: and I mean I called it super funny, like my
• 23:52
  Speaker 5: trademark comedy club name and brand, so that even if
• 23:55
  Speaker 5: you didn't know me, you go super funny show me
• 24:00
  Speaker 5: right and it's it's going crazy right now. So if
• 24:03
  Speaker 5: you want to laugh, go watch that. But I got
• 24:07
  Speaker 5: to show that it's not just CrowdWork. I got to
• 24:09
  Speaker 5: show you know, twenty four years of chops or whatever.
• 24:11
  Speaker 5: And so you see it all you see if you
• 24:13
  Speaker 5: watch a stand a standalone clip, you're assuming that that's that.
• 24:17
  Speaker 5: But the real epiphany is like, wait, all that's one show.
• 24:19
  Speaker 5: All that strings together, all that somehow and standing and
• 24:24
  Speaker 5: he's doing some singings and it like, so I wanted
• 24:26
  Speaker 5: to just give everything in my in my toolbox and
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: throw it out there. And we caught it. And it's risky.
• 24:33
  Speaker 5: It's risky doing crowd work on a you know, adapts.
• 24:36
  Speaker 5: It was two hundred and forty six thousand dollars and
• 24:38
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna go up and I don't know what I'm
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: gonna say. But you get comic View and they're like,
• 24:43
  Speaker 5: we want your jokes and paragraph form. You know, every
• 24:46
  Speaker 5: single word you gotta you gotta write down your little
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: five minutes and send it in and they approve it.
• 24:50
  Speaker 5: But for this chord over quarter million dollars, I'm like, man,
• 24:53
  Speaker 5: just press record, Nigg're.
• 24:54
  Speaker 2: Gonna see what happens. And we caught it.
• 24:57
  Speaker 5: But it was risky, and it's risky every time you
• 25:00
  Speaker 5: do it because you in charge of your set and
• 25:02
  Speaker 5: then and you're going a certain cadence and then you
• 25:06
  Speaker 5: slow down to be like, so tell me something about
• 25:08
  Speaker 5: you else, and now they are then in fuck the
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: whole groove of you.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Know what I'm saying.
• 25:13
  Speaker 5: And so but I went for it, and and what
• 25:16
  Speaker 5: you see on on Netflix, we caught it.
• 25:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what I'm saying, How did that? How
• 25:19
  Speaker 3: did that come about?
• 25:20
  Speaker 6: Though?
• 25:20
  Speaker 3: How did how did Netflix end up the place?
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: So let me answer that for sure, because I'm crazy
• 25:30
  Speaker 5: about that answer. But then on the other side of
• 25:33
  Speaker 5: the coin is what I can control is the crowd
• 25:36
  Speaker 5: work joints. I walk out, It's first Wednesdays at my club,
• 25:39
  Speaker 5: one or two shows, and I'm and the challenge was,
• 25:42
  Speaker 5: you can only talk about what's in front of you
• 25:44
  Speaker 5: or what you've seen that day, and I gotta do
• 25:46
  Speaker 5: an hour. So I go up with nothing and I
• 25:49
  Speaker 5: come off. And so there's twenty four of those now,
• 25:52
  Speaker 5: and every one is somewhere around one point five to
• 25:55
  Speaker 5: two point five million views. And so it's the only
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: place where I explained like the rules that I do
• 26:02
  Speaker 5: when I say so. When I'm in live shows in
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: theaters and I start saying the rule, they're finishing my sentences.
• 26:08
  Speaker 5: So I think the crowd work joints is what got
• 26:11
  Speaker 5: me to the point that the Netflix special was possible
• 26:14
  Speaker 5: to then go boom on this platform where everybody goes
• 26:17
  Speaker 5: this is this is where you put your your best
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: shit and I and I did so Now people are like, oh,
• 26:22
  Speaker 5: I thought he was just a tiktak guy.
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: I'm shocked Netflix did that though, I mean because based
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: off watching your specialis I'm shocked that they chose to
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: invest in something like that.
• 26:32
  Speaker 6: Like, oh, what is it gonna be an hour just CrowdWork?
• 26:34
  Speaker 6: Even though the crowd work is funny as shit.
• 26:36
  Speaker 2: No, they didn't know. It was a licensing deal, got you.
• 26:39
  Speaker 5: I had a licensing deal and I've done they I've
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: had to present my comedy to Netflix or somebody like
• 26:46
  Speaker 5: Netflix or Netflix associated in that sphere, whether it was
• 26:50
  Speaker 5: just CrowdWork, whether it was.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 26:52
  Speaker 5: But then if you're not sure if the crowdwork's gonna work, well,
• 26:55
  Speaker 5: but the person has twenty I think nineteen hours of
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: it at that point, nineteen hours of crowd work and
• 27:01
  Speaker 5: and them missing, Like okay, all right.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: Do you remember when you.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: Called that couple Seal and Heidi Boom boom?
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: Sometimes God just give you one.
• 27:13
  Speaker 9: You're like, oh.
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: How y'all meet? She was like, well, I was.
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: I was dating somebody he knew, and she was dating
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: somebody I knew, and both of them.
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: Went to jail. I'm like, what the fuck?
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 27:23
  Speaker 5: But it was a it was a brother that looked
• 27:25
  Speaker 5: like Seal and a big white girl with I think
• 27:27
  Speaker 5: corn rolls or something.
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: I was like, boom.
• 27:31
  Speaker 5: But so to answer your question, you basically said why Netflix.
• 27:35
  Speaker 5: So it's it's simple for me. But like, so my
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: mama getting older and she has an office downstairs at
• 27:42
  Speaker 5: our house in Lady, Washington, and she got to go
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: down these steps to go down in this cold ass basement,
• 27:47
  Speaker 5: turn on the area heater to get on Netflix or
• 27:50
  Speaker 5: to get on any streaming platform.
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: But Netflix came on their old.
• 27:54
  Speaker 5: Ass smart TV, which's dumb now, but that was the one.
• 27:58
  Speaker 2: I was like, it's a smart TV NETLI.
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: Built in, so she will watch Netflix and from the
• 28:03
  Speaker 5: comfort of the couch, fireplace and all that. So for me,
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: I was like, this is how my mama gonna see.
• 28:08
  Speaker 2: Me and be comfortab Yeah. Oh wow wow.
• 28:10
  Speaker 5: So you play it with all the other stuff you
• 28:12
  Speaker 5: know about Netflix, and it kind of makes sense. But
• 28:14
  Speaker 5: if they're not gonna give me a deal, it's like
• 28:15
  Speaker 5: I gotta go to wherever. But that's why I was like,
• 28:18
  Speaker 5: I could just stick it on YouTube with the CrowdWork joints,
• 28:20
  Speaker 5: where there's now seven hundred and fifty thousand people. I
• 28:23
  Speaker 5: think that would land well, but let's see if we
• 28:25
  Speaker 5: can get traction with them, because just literally I was
• 28:27
  Speaker 5: on calls with agency, They're like, where do you what platform?
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: I'm like, Netflix, why my mama can't watch this ship down?
• 28:34
  Speaker 5: Stick like I need her in the living room, being
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: like my baby did it? I need that and we
• 28:38
  Speaker 5: and that's what we did.
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: Gary about to write that down. He's gonna try to
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: use that to get his Netflix special final. You know,
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: Gary can't get a Netflix special for nothing.
• 28:46
  Speaker 2: No podcast got it's called Gary and Nate.
• 28:52
  Speaker 6: I did not know that Gary had a podcast.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he got uh what just is called Gary on? Yeah?
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: And I got my own funny and ship you had
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: definitely special? How did you break the news the gay?
• 29:04
  Speaker 2: Right after he told me that they turned him down?
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: Damn.
• 29:07
  Speaker 5: But I didn't mean to say it that way though,
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: Like he was like, here, man, I'm waiting to find
• 29:11
  Speaker 5: out about Netflix.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: I had already knew, like I might be riding.
• 29:14
  Speaker 5: In third on mine, and so I just had to
• 29:16
  Speaker 5: sit there and he told me the whole thing, like yeah, man,
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: I'm ready for it to get on there. Man, I
• 29:20
  Speaker 5: don't know what it's about. And I was like, man,
• 29:21
  Speaker 5: maybe you know, just keep talking along.
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: Brother.
• 29:24
  Speaker 6: You didn't want to give me good news yet I
• 29:26
  Speaker 6: had to wait.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: I had to wait till like.
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: The moment of like, yeah, you want to hear something,
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: crazy man, but you can't.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: You can't go.
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: You can't ask stupid, you can't tell nobody, you can't say,
• 29:35
  Speaker 5: you can't ask stupid.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: He was like, what you got? What you got? And
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, your Netflix gave me mine. He
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: was like, that's what's up.
• 29:45
  Speaker 5: I support that, but no, so he deserves one.
• 29:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 29:55
  Speaker 7: On the podcast, you said, Gary be taking your staff?
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: Where do you see that? At your podcast?
• 29:59
  Speaker 5: We talked about it live, so you saw us come
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: to a resolution and you want to go back to
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: when it was.
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: Fucked up and start.
• 30:05
  Speaker 6: We start from the resolution.
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: I'll precede this with working. But what happened with Gary
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: taking this stof.
• 30:14
  Speaker 5: This is the thing and it's my nature to want
• 30:18
  Speaker 5: to see those around me do well.
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: And I had to have.
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: A full on epiphany in twenty twelve to be like
• 30:24
  Speaker 5: stop helping another niggas help yourself. Because I was putting
• 30:27
  Speaker 5: so much into other people's dreams. I was like, I'm tired.
• 30:29
  Speaker 5: I ain't even do nothing for myself for that Jesus,
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: And it's good to have a balance. But I had
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: lost mind just trying to like I want to see
• 30:35
  Speaker 5: I'm helping I'm helping out Like at a point I
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: was helping young black Hollywood thrive. And then the other
• 30:40
  Speaker 5: thing that would suck is they would get on and
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: then everybody got amnesia who helped you? And I'm like,
• 30:46
  Speaker 5: here we go, here go to credits. Here I go, here,
• 30:48
  Speaker 5: I go. Dang, this nigga doesn't win. He done popped
• 30:51
  Speaker 5: and forgot you boy. And that's another reason. That's another
• 30:54
  Speaker 5: reason why I feel some kind of way because the
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: Netflix credits aren't right, like we got to update them.
• 30:59
  Speaker 5: They forgot like right, and my guy, Trenton Cotton is
• 31:02
  Speaker 5: not and he was like, yeah, I know, I know,
• 31:03
  Speaker 5: I'm in a whole thing goes by. He ain't, so
• 31:07
  Speaker 5: shout out to teacap.
• 31:08
  Speaker 3: But they are going to fix that, you said.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: Then they can update. Yeah. So anyway, Gary would come
• 31:16
  Speaker 2: up to the club.
• 31:16
  Speaker 5: He did a weekend and the weekend was great, and
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: I asked him to do my podcast and we had
• 31:20
  Speaker 5: a great episode and then it was just it was
• 31:23
  Speaker 5: just synergized to where it was like, Yo, we should
• 31:25
  Speaker 5: probably do something, and then it turned into like the
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: Gary and Nate pod and then the crowd work joints
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: that I was putting out where I'm putting out once
• 31:32
  Speaker 5: a month or whatever, Like somebody sent me and was like, yo,
• 31:36
  Speaker 5: Gary got these things he's doing once a month.
• 31:38
  Speaker 2: Now, and I was like, well, I said, Gary did what?
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: So I didn't say nothing. I just sat on because
• 31:48
  Speaker 5: we were only filming once a month.
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I've been seeing Gary do more CrowdWork. I'm not I'm
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: not even joking.
• 31:55
  Speaker 2: Crowd work.

• 33:10
  Speaker 5: I have no I have no malice, you know what
• 33:12
  Speaker 5: I'm saying. And so he's good but uh not. But
• 33:16
  Speaker 5: it's just and and so I have noticed that as
• 33:19
  Speaker 5: I'm up in the Pacific Northwest fighting for ways to
• 33:22
  Speaker 5: be an innovator and stay relevant from way to fuck
• 33:24
  Speaker 5: up there and off the grid, that sometimes people come
• 33:27
  Speaker 5: up and they're like, Oh.
• 33:28
  Speaker 2: That'sh it is. That's the sauce. You can't. I can't
• 33:30
  Speaker 2: protect that.
• 33:31
  Speaker 5: Whether he comes close to me and does it, or
• 33:33
  Speaker 5: stay away from me and does it. If somebody sees
• 33:36
  Speaker 5: an editing style or a wave or I don't know,
• 33:39
  Speaker 5: a dress, or away somebody walks and talk and let's working,
• 33:43
  Speaker 5: there's nothing you can do. He from he from there, Well,
• 33:46
  Speaker 5: he's from ohiobio.
• 33:48
  Speaker 2: He lived listening envious.
• 33:49
  Speaker 5: Why he's literally saying every point of contention from when
• 33:55
  Speaker 5: we argued at the end of the day we only
• 33:58
  Speaker 5: were recording. First you said that, you said you ain't
• 34:01
  Speaker 5: want to baseball, and then Gary was like, nigga, look
• 34:05
  Speaker 5: at me at my wedding party.
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: He said, nigga, look at.
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Me now, you know. Goddamn Well, like a week, Gary
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: solid nothing to be saying that. Anybody was wondering where
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: I'm mad on it? He good, good, okay now, but
• 34:26
  Speaker 2: just not doing the podcast no more. But y'all good, No,
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: I can't.
• 34:29
  Speaker 5: It's because we do first Busy, we do First Mondays,
• 34:32
  Speaker 5: and so he'll come up and do the club and
• 34:34
  Speaker 5: the door deal is what makes it worth coming up.
• 34:38
  Speaker 5: Then we record one or two or three or four
• 34:40
  Speaker 5: episodes in one day or two and then two and
• 34:43
  Speaker 5: it'd be my only two days off for maybe a
• 34:45
  Speaker 5: fourteenth stretch of road gigs. I'm like, Gary, I can't,
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: I can't do it. So I'm doing I'm doing a
• 34:50
  Speaker 5: comedy festival the eleventh through the seventeenth because my birthday
• 34:54
  Speaker 5: is the fourteenth in August, and so he's gonna come
• 34:56
  Speaker 5: up and he's gonna do Monday, the eleventh, and then
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: we're gonna do one more episode just and we're just busy.
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 35:01
  Speaker 3: Where's Comedy Festival is in your hometown?
• 35:03
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, sin Tacoma.
• 35:05
  Speaker 5: Yeah so, and we got Tony Rock anchoring the weekend,
• 35:08
  Speaker 5: Gariel do the Monday. Then I'm going to do a
• 35:10
  Speaker 5: Nate Jackson Presents on Monday. It's one of my concepts
• 35:13
  Speaker 5: where it's like I'm hosting for thirty five forty minutes
• 35:16
  Speaker 5: and then all the acts just come out the door.
• 35:18
  Speaker 5: You don't know who's on stage, kind of like this
• 35:22
  Speaker 5: Sunday show.
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this makes so much because I was listening to
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: the Gary's pod like last week, and I was wondering
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: why he was just going in on people who do CrowdWork.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: He was like, people who do CrowdWork are lazy and
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: they don't really know how to write.
• 35:34
  Speaker 2: But Yarrey on his pod, that's not made up. That
• 35:38
  Speaker 2: sounds made up.
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: Oh yeah, I did make it up.
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: Hey ya ya, I didn't make that up because here's why.
• 35:47
  Speaker 2: Here's why it's made up. Because if you do.
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: CrowdWork, or attempt to do crowd work, and you have
• 35:53
  Speaker 5: good moments and you string them together, you already know
• 35:56
  Speaker 5: you're using traditional stand up structure, but you're plugging the
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: information you got off the people into that.
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: So we're writing live and on the spot.
• 36:05
  Speaker 5: And I think that what's overlooked is the phenomena of
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: why people are like why growwork Because you're in the
• 36:13
  Speaker 5: crowd and you're hearing the response.
• 36:15
  Speaker 2: Your brain is.
• 36:15
  Speaker 5: Processing the same information and you're like, what what I say?
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: What was he gonna say? And every time the person
• 36:22
  Speaker 5: you like that does it finds an angle everything like
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: that's why.
• 36:27
  Speaker 6: It's actually funnier.
• 36:28
  Speaker 1: It actually shows that that person is funnier because it's
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: not something that they actually pre wrote.
• 36:31
  Speaker 6: It's like on the in the spot, on the moment.
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: Yeah, man, put two quotes in front and behind that,
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: and then let's run with that one.
• 36:39
  Speaker 5: Because there's there is there is a school of thought
• 36:41
  Speaker 5: that's like that's or they're not working hard, or they're
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: not they're just they don't have jokes. So that's why
• 36:46
  Speaker 5: I'm like, okay, one follow me. Then to try it
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: and let me see what you're doing. And I'll be like, Noah,
• 36:53
  Speaker 5: I see why you think it's lazy. But I put
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: the work. As I said, I had a room every
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: Thursday night. Can't no young comic hold it down as
• 37:00
  Speaker 5: a host everything. You know, there's no pen in the
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: world that can keep up with that amount of monologues.
• 37:05
  Speaker 5: So I just started going up with nothing and fucking
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: with people, and it was not good.
• 37:10
  Speaker 2: What it got good?
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: What happens if there's nothing that inspires you from the crowd.
• 37:14
  Speaker 5: But I say that, I talk about how there's nothing
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: and how what a guess who character nothing to talk about?
• 37:20
  Speaker 5: Slow ass answer, havn't ass crowd? Is this There's funny
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: even in the lack of it too, you know what
• 37:26
  Speaker 5: I'm saying. I've seen somebody get roasted that had nothing
• 37:29
  Speaker 5: wrong with them. Somebody was like, Nigga, you look easy
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: to draw. I saw that online.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: M like, what are you going to.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: Say when the person with a person's face is mastic
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: They're like, you look easy to draw. I was like, see,
• 37:40
  Speaker 5: that's genius. So now there's plenty of stuff to talk about.
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: And like I said, I can talk about anything I
• 37:46
  Speaker 5: saw since I woke up or what's in front of me.
• 37:48
  Speaker 5: So if I got to start with whatever like I
• 37:50
  Speaker 5: would have been, I would have went on stage and
• 37:52
  Speaker 5: been like, y'all see.
• 37:52
  Speaker 2: Coldplay y'all see the dude get caught.
• 37:55
  Speaker 5: Like I can talk about that at a CrowdWork joint,
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: and now it's like, who in here cheat? Now we
• 37:59
  Speaker 5: got some segues to get through, you know what I mean.
• 38:01
  Speaker 5: But like it's almost a gift when you get something,
• 38:04
  Speaker 5: you're like, Okay, let's cook with this, right, and I
• 38:08
  Speaker 5: like to find a few so that I can do
• 38:10
  Speaker 5: callbacks and have it all come together and jail together.
• 38:14
  Speaker 5: So at the end you're like, that was that wasn't
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: just that was an experience. That was just a couple
• 38:17
  Speaker 5: of moments.
• 38:18
  Speaker 1: You ever had somebody roast you back like and and
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: actually be good like a nutty professor?
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: When when who's whose titties over here? Yes?
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: Remember when remember when Eddie went off on when Da
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: Chapelle was playing the comedian he came back his buddy love.
• 38:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, uh No, I've never had nothing that crazy happen.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: But I've had I've had I had a guy. But
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: here's the thing.
• 38:41
  Speaker 5: A lot of times the person that wants to do that,
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: they're not on the cadence of the show.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: They waiting for you to.
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: Take a breath or like, give me get a a
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: segue between two things to yell out and try to
• 38:50
  Speaker 5: fuck the think. But I ain't had it happen yet. Well,
• 38:54
  Speaker 5: a long time ago on Thursday night or whatever, somebody
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: was like, man, I'm like come up here and in
• 39:00
  Speaker 5: and this just went back and forth, back and forth,
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: back and forth, and I lost, and I was like, congratulations.
• 39:05
  Speaker 5: Was it a comedian or a random guy? He beat
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: me because he was like he said, this is what
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: he said. He said, your mama's pussy so deep. I
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: went down on her. My ears popped, and that's what
• 39:14
  Speaker 5: I said. And I didn't have it. I was like, yeah, nigga,
• 39:17
  Speaker 5: that that's the winner.
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: You never had anybody get mad like you try to fight.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: H No, because I like to be honest with you,
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: like i'd say, like ninety percent of it is reading
• 39:29
  Speaker 5: body language. You kind of can look at who who's
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: with this and now now I should never have to
• 39:35
  Speaker 5: deal with it. Because the front five to seven rows
• 39:38
  Speaker 5: of my show is sold online for more and it's
• 39:42
  Speaker 5: called the roll zone, so they literally it's like the
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: splash on, like you only do that if you want
• 39:47
  Speaker 5: to get black, like how Gallagher would hit the watermelons.
• 39:50
  Speaker 5: So if you're in a row zone, I don't want
• 39:52
  Speaker 5: to hear shit like it is what it is. They
• 39:54
  Speaker 5: be mad if I don't get man, we just our
• 39:56
  Speaker 5: second time coming. You ain't get it either, tie.
• 39:58
  Speaker 2: Man, come again, bro, I'll get you. You know what
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: I'm saying.
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: So in general, no, not now, but at the like,
• 40:05
  Speaker 5: if I'm just doing a show that's not mine or
• 40:07
  Speaker 5: gigging or something, it's about like who's who, who's with it,
• 40:11
  Speaker 5: generally eye contact, smiling or at least looking, you know,
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: definitely not big enough that I'm like.
• 40:15
  Speaker 2: That would be about. That would be a good that'd
• 40:17
  Speaker 2: be a good fight.
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: Like I'm not looking for I'm not roasting somebody that
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: I've got to tussle with six minutes and we don't
• 40:22
  Speaker 5: know who won.
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: Big Mac was big as hell, and he said, you
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: do security, big as hell.
• 40:27
  Speaker 6: I do security right? Why you got to put Burrow
• 40:30
  Speaker 6: on the end.
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: I could run away from him skipping, Nigga, I'm not
• 40:35
  Speaker 5: run with trying to catch me. No, that's a belly shot.
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: We out of there.
• 40:40
  Speaker 6: What is what is this paper?
• 40:41
  Speaker 2: Spin off? I mean the spin off the office? This
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: is good. These niggas are really good. You guys, do
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: you guys just sit up here? And be like, man,
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: we're good at this ship. Do you know you're the
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: best work doing it for a while. Niggas are good.
• 40:57
  Speaker 2: Just spin I didn't think that was in your thing.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 40:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah, So The Office is coming back and it's called
• 41:02
  Speaker 5: it's called The Paper. I wouldn't necessarily call it a
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: spin off because it's in the same universe, the same world,
• 41:07
  Speaker 5: some of the characters are the same, and so uh
• 41:10
  Speaker 5: there is a serious nda around what we can say
• 41:14
  Speaker 5: and cannot say. But it comes back on September fourth,
• 41:16
  Speaker 5: and this shit is gonna be hilarious.
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: I am very very proud of you for doing that.
• 41:21
  Speaker 8: You are that type of witty ass comedian know that
• 41:24
  Speaker 8: with totally be great in the Office or The Office universe.
• 41:27
  Speaker 8: So that's one of my favorite shows, Modern Family, The Office,
• 41:31
  Speaker 8: And like, I love that you are in that pocket
• 41:33
  Speaker 8: of wit and that's that feels good to me to
• 41:36
  Speaker 8: see that you're gonna be doing that working up man.
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: Thank you, and I and I'm I'm just thankful. But
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: I'm in. I'm in. I think I'm in more episodes
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: than I'm not and more.
• 41:47
  Speaker 5: Yes, because Greg Daniels can see your boy, so uh, yes,
• 41:55
  Speaker 5: and there's and once you're and a sitcom like that,
• 41:57
  Speaker 5: there's a lot less competition, you know, I mean, like you,
• 41:59
  Speaker 5: you're the person you're in. This is when you get
• 42:02
  Speaker 5: to go do your thing. Whil'n out. It's twenty four
• 42:05
  Speaker 5: people waiting to get one spot.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, literally, you got you're gonna.
• 42:09
  Speaker 5: Get the rappers, you're gonna get the contracted guys, and
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: you got the celebrity.
• 42:12
  Speaker 2: Oh they brought their little sister with them.
• 42:14
  Speaker 5: Then, so there's two spots and there's twenty four people
• 42:17
  Speaker 5: waiting to get tapped to be against each other. On
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: the others, you'd be like, man, I don't know if
• 42:20
  Speaker 5: I'm gonna get a episode, but you can see it.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: And then here come Michael Blackson wasn't even on the
• 42:25
  Speaker 5: damn show.
• 42:26
  Speaker 2: What's something about Soaka?
• 42:27
  Speaker 5: And he and because he's nick boy, you don't get
• 42:30
  Speaker 5: no burn shout out the mic. But that's just that's
• 42:33
  Speaker 5: how you get four.
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: That's how I go.
• 42:35
  Speaker 5: Then you go out and put the cape on somebody
• 42:36
  Speaker 5: because they asked you to. You gotta we only shoot
• 42:39
  Speaker 5: two weeks, all them episodes two weeks, So I'm in
• 42:41
  Speaker 5: trouble for three days.
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: Nigga. That's devastating.
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: But the beauty is when you blow up, like the
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: way you're blowing up now, Like they'll invite you back
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: and act like you got your start there, and I'll
• 42:51
  Speaker 1: be like.
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: Man, I'm so thankful, shout out the nine elevens.
• 42:57
  Speaker 6: But the paper is not a reboot though, it's it's.
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know what the right word is
• 43:02
  Speaker 5: talk about it that the press, but I'm really I
• 43:06
  Speaker 5: don't know what the word is for. Like this was
• 43:10
  Speaker 5: also happening, but now we'll show you this other player.
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Just imagine the production company that was in the office,
• 43:17
  Speaker 5: you know, was alway zooming in and all that. Just
• 43:18
  Speaker 5: imagine they went across the street to another address or something,
• 43:21
  Speaker 5: because that's kind of I don't I don't, I don't
• 43:24
  Speaker 5: know because usually spin off it takes one character and
• 43:29
  Speaker 5: it follows them, you know what I'm saying, And this
• 43:32
  Speaker 5: ain't that, this isn't Famin matters, and then we just
• 43:35
  Speaker 5: follow Erkle and like, no, this is like there's characters
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: from the other one in this one.
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: It's a beautiful Greg Daniels did it again. That's all right?
• 43:42
  Speaker 5: Then the showrunners and that whole team, like I was
• 43:44
  Speaker 5: in awe just like good. Some of the stuff they
• 43:47
  Speaker 5: found the idiosyncrasies of how funny something simple could be
• 43:53
  Speaker 5: and and the fact that they were like malleable enough
• 43:56
  Speaker 5: to get it some big words. Some of the stuff
• 43:58
  Speaker 5: that was that they made funny, that they took the
• 44:01
  Speaker 5: time and budget to spend time like how to just
• 44:06
  Speaker 5: move like flip a lever. Flipping a lever wasn't just flipping.
• 44:11
  Speaker 5: Like there's a way to pick these glasses up and
• 44:13
  Speaker 5: it's funny, And they went through every way like so
• 44:17
  Speaker 5: you want to pick these glasses up. You want to
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: pick these glasses up like they I'm talking about every
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: way to inflect your voice. And they took the time
• 44:25
  Speaker 5: to be like do the game at this time, do
• 44:26
  Speaker 5: the game? But this time I was like, I did
• 44:28
  Speaker 5: not know that this show was like this fine tooth,
• 44:32
  Speaker 5: like they take every moment and and it's every moment
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: is I guess you know? Manicure to be as funny
• 44:38
  Speaker 5: as it can be, even though it's as dry, but
• 44:41
  Speaker 5: it's hilarious.
• 44:44
  Speaker 6: Yes, good, you can't. You can't gotta be.
• 44:48
  Speaker 3: Episodes that can't come back out right now. I love
• 44:54
  Speaker 3: the show.
• 44:55
  Speaker 8: I love it man, and you you stream as well.
• 44:57
  Speaker 8: Sometimes you know as much as I can, you know
• 45:00
  Speaker 8: what I'm saying.
• 45:01
  Speaker 2: But god damn.
• 45:02
  Speaker 4: You you you you don't.
• 45:03
  Speaker 5: Realize how much shit you don't want to show until
• 45:06
  Speaker 5: you're showing it, you know what I'm saying.
• 45:08
  Speaker 2: I walked past some mail on the counter and somebody
• 45:10
  Speaker 2: was like, got your address, nigga?
• 45:12
  Speaker 5: I like, yeah, what because I'll posit zoom like I'm
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: already stay that ass.
• 45:19
  Speaker 2: I like fuck that.
• 45:21
  Speaker 5: I was going to my office and there's a billboard
• 45:23
  Speaker 5: outside and somebody was like, I.
• 45:24
  Speaker 2: Know where that billboard is. I'm like, man fu.
• 45:26
  Speaker 5: So there's so many like camera down then you just
• 45:28
  Speaker 5: want to talk to somebody, they.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: See the mic on you like, oh you monked up?
• 45:32
  Speaker 2: Not right now, We're good right now.
• 45:34
  Speaker 5: So so it's like I have to like be like, okay,
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: from this time to this time, I'm gonna stream. I
• 45:39
  Speaker 5: thought it was just gonna be like just put the
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: camera on and let's go for some of your life.
• 45:42
  Speaker 5: You don't want to, you know what I'm saying. You
• 45:44
  Speaker 5: don't want to show a lot of your life. I think,
• 45:46
  Speaker 5: you know. Plus, it's a different kind of oncause I'm
• 45:49
  Speaker 5: realizing when you go live, it's a lot of fucking reading. Yeah,
• 45:54
  Speaker 5: people don't really like you're reading the equivalent of like
• 45:58
  Speaker 5: nine Harry Potter chapters just to interact with your chat.
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. So I can do it,
• 46:05
  Speaker 2: but it's a thing I have to flip. Now.
• 46:08
  Speaker 5: Last week I went to Twitch headquarters in San Francisco,
• 46:12
  Speaker 5: and I was like, what are we doing?
• 46:13
  Speaker 2: What you want to do?
• 46:14
  Speaker 5: Because there's an entire industry of comedy where people are
• 46:16
  Speaker 5: living big lives and they're perfect for live streaming, but
• 46:20
  Speaker 5: we need like can we work? Yeah, and that app is,
• 46:23
  Speaker 5: that app is, that's a beautiful app, but that that
• 46:26
  Speaker 5: shit is that the entry level on that is so high.
• 46:30
  Speaker 5: It's expensive to get On Instagram, you need a phone,
• 46:33
  Speaker 5: which you already have. If you want to be a
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: creator on Twitter, you got to have like several different
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: apps which have their own learning curve, whether it's something
• 46:41
  Speaker 5: for overlay, something for alert, something for the chat.
• 46:44
  Speaker 2: Then you got to have a setup.
• 46:46
  Speaker 5: Like there's like there's a lot even Like let's say
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: you just want to stream your like I Rail from
• 46:51
  Speaker 5: a phone, Now you got to go buy Samsung Galaxy
• 46:54
  Speaker 5: twenty five. Then things it's like eleven hundred. Then you
• 46:56
  Speaker 5: got to get too simcars.
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: Like the entry level. It's expensive, like a whole now
• 47:01
  Speaker 2: it even if it's not, it's just expensive. Then let's
• 47:05
  Speaker 2: tell you.
• 47:05
  Speaker 5: Let's say you go out and there's a lot of
• 47:07
  Speaker 5: you go maybe a Yankees game and I'm gonna stream
• 47:09
  Speaker 5: or something if they'll let you. But somewhere where it's
• 47:12
  Speaker 5: high populated, maybe it's maybe the parade or something. Everybody
• 47:15
  Speaker 5: on the cell tower your signal dropping. Now your feet
• 47:18
  Speaker 5: is cutting. So if you get tired of that, the
• 47:21
  Speaker 5: next the next step up from the phone, it's called
• 47:25
  Speaker 5: a live you Solo.
• 47:26
  Speaker 6: Pro backs wear.
• 47:28
  Speaker 5: So no, yeah, yeah, there's a backpack or like a
• 47:32
  Speaker 5: Wi Fi. Yeah, so there's like two or three motems
• 47:35
  Speaker 5: or something. That ship is like six thousand dollars. So
• 47:38
  Speaker 5: you're telling me.
• 47:39
  Speaker 2: Just to stay on the app and stay like.
• 47:41
  Speaker 5: It's like that who got that when young creator just
• 47:45
  Speaker 5: got six thousand sitting right there.
• 47:47
  Speaker 2: So then the next step up is a.
• 47:49
  Speaker 5: Thirty thousand back I see like DDG and all them
• 47:51
  Speaker 5: them them them backpacks is thirty thousand dollars.
• 47:53
  Speaker 2: That's the backpack that Yeah, if.
• 47:55
  Speaker 5: It's blue or something that's or hot green, I think
• 47:58
  Speaker 5: that bag is sit thirty thousand dollars.
• 48:00
  Speaker 6: So it's a real investment.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: But you does it pay?
• 48:05
  Speaker 6: Yeah, wow, it pays by long?
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: Do you have to be on those sites in order
• 48:12
  Speaker 3: to make the money?
• 48:14
  Speaker 2: No, you get you go as soon as you go. Partner.
• 48:16
  Speaker 5: I made partner in four days. And if you got
• 48:19
  Speaker 5: to make a partner, just well there's a thing that
• 48:22
  Speaker 5: you know. It says just like any other monetization where
• 48:24
  Speaker 5: they're like you need this many viewers, this many hours
• 48:25
  Speaker 5: or whatever. But you can also just send an email
• 48:28
  Speaker 5: and be like, here's my numbers on other platforms and
• 48:29
  Speaker 5: they be like, oh ship got So you're monetized right away,
• 48:33
  Speaker 5: which gives you access to a certain percentage of your
• 48:35
  Speaker 5: advertising and a certain percentage of your subs. And the
• 48:39
  Speaker 5: subs is why. That's why it makes sense. You want
• 48:43
  Speaker 5: to know the sauce. I deed the sauce and this
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: is how this is how it happens.
• 48:49
  Speaker 2: I like to share and not you know what I'm saying,
• 48:52
  Speaker 2: absolutely right.
• 48:53
  Speaker 5: So that's why I said, if somebody gonna take something
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: I'm doing and do it, I didn't make it that
• 48:58
  Speaker 5: hard to get it.
• 48:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so.
• 49:03
  Speaker 5: I'll ask you first so that you understand the power
• 49:06
  Speaker 5: of it. Right, So, in my opinion, I think the
• 49:09
  Speaker 5: I r L clips are the highest algorithm clips on
• 49:12
  Speaker 5: social media right now, it ain't sketches. It used to
• 49:15
  Speaker 5: be sketches. Now it's like, so like, what do you
• 49:18
  Speaker 5: remember from the BET Awards this year?
• 49:22
  Speaker 2: Exactly?
• 49:23
  Speaker 6: That's a clip?
• 49:26
  Speaker 2: Right? What do you remember from Shane Gillis at the.
• 49:29
  Speaker 6: Spis his monologue which is a clip?
• 49:33
  Speaker 5: So like Joe Rogan's clip page is almost six times
• 49:37
  Speaker 5: bigger than the full episode page. Right, nobody gonna sit
• 49:40
  Speaker 5: through three hours and just watch the clip. And what
• 49:43
  Speaker 5: makes twitch so genius that anybody watching your stream has
• 49:46
  Speaker 5: there's a button on it that says clip anyone, any
• 49:50
  Speaker 5: viewer can make a sixty second clip. Now, that could
• 49:52
  Speaker 5: be bad if you're doing something like gotcha.
• 49:54
  Speaker 6: Ass headlines or they make the headline, don't be having
• 49:57
  Speaker 6: nothing to do.
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: With the video, right, Yeah, yeah.
• 50:00
  Speaker 6: You got your headlined and you watched it like that
• 50:01
  Speaker 6: didn't happen, You didn't.
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 50:03
  Speaker 5: I saw some of them were like somebody curves Cristy
• 50:05
  Speaker 5: on and I watched it. I was like, she ain't
• 50:06
  Speaker 5: even happen.
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: It's just having fun. What the fun.
• 50:09
  Speaker 5: But if you know that that's what it is. Then
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: then now why not why not be strategic?
• 50:16
  Speaker 3: Then?
• 50:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah, you don't.
• 50:17
  Speaker 5: Got eight hours of stream, you got two hours. So
• 50:19
  Speaker 5: and that two hours, I'm gonna go here. I'm gonna
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: go there. I talk to my brother, my son or
• 50:25
  Speaker 5: my whatever we're gonna have. There will be chances for moments,
• 50:27
  Speaker 5: and then you can overproduce the way You're like, somebody.
• 50:29
  Speaker 2: Gonna kick in the door and it's going down, and
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
• 50:32
  Speaker 5: But you want the clips because once you get the clip,
• 50:35
  Speaker 5: that goes YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, it goes every other platform.
• 50:39
  Speaker 5: And so then you build your audience and then they're
• 50:42
  Speaker 5: on and they subscribe or just coming on, they watch ads,
• 50:45
  Speaker 5: they have no choice, and you get paid. And then
• 50:48
  Speaker 5: from your station in the game, you don't. You're not
• 50:51
  Speaker 5: gonna get that basic percentage. You're like, I'm sorry, the
• 50:55
  Speaker 5: man you're talking about.
• 50:56
  Speaker 6: Set up the breakfast club. I r L goddamnit, I'm ready.
• 50:59
  Speaker 2: Are you ready? You needed that, Nate, Yes, let's do it. Yeah,
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: get your money, well, check out you.
• 51:04
  Speaker 6: I want to have one more question.
• 51:04
  Speaker 1: What do you want new fans who see you for
• 51:07
  Speaker 1: the first time on Netflix to walk away?
• 51:09
  Speaker 2: Thinking I got a new top five.
• 51:15
  Speaker 5: Because for like twenty years, everybody says the same five
• 51:18
  Speaker 5: names in rotation, and I think that it's time that
• 51:21
  Speaker 5: we shake that up a little bit. Basketball got new stars.
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: I'm not saying there's not a place for other people
• 51:26
  Speaker 5: and we can all eat, but let's work together, you
• 51:29
  Speaker 5: know what I'm saying. And maybe it's a challenge, but
• 51:32
  Speaker 5: I would like to see some of the og black
• 51:35
  Speaker 5: comics who've made a lot of money in the game
• 51:40
  Speaker 5: reach back and create opportunities for the rest of the game.
• 51:46
  Speaker 5: There's Uptown, I guess it's closing. It's not black owned,
• 51:50
  Speaker 5: but it's black ran. And so now I think there
• 51:52
  Speaker 5: are three black owned clubs in America. I'm the biggest
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: at two hundred and seventy seats. I think when I
• 52:00
  Speaker 5: look around on your wall and see all the successful
• 52:03
  Speaker 5: African Americans and every dollar that got pulled down, that
• 52:06
  Speaker 5: it makes no sense that we don't have more brick
• 52:08
  Speaker 5: and mortars to do the craft we build.
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: Why doesn't Martin have wandas? Why doesn't you know what I'm.
• 52:16
  Speaker 5: Saying, Why does Why isn't there Heart Kevin Hart Comedy Club?
• 52:20
  Speaker 5: Goddamn you do comedy, make some money off the drinks,
• 52:23
  Speaker 5: for you got a liquor, sell only that in your club.
• 52:28
  Speaker 2: But there should be.
• 52:28
  Speaker 5: And if that's not it, then let's just get with
• 52:30
  Speaker 5: the Let's get with the people who open businesses left
• 52:32
  Speaker 5: and right, and and then say look here, you use
• 52:34
  Speaker 5: my name, my likeness, and I want some ownership whatever
• 52:37
  Speaker 5: and then and but there should be.
• 52:38
  Speaker 6: It makes sense. Joe Rogan got the comedy club in Austin.
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: Now did the Mothership? Yeah?
• 52:43
  Speaker 5: I believe Dave is building one and and so there
• 52:49
  Speaker 5: may be four.
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: But that's if you think about all of the money.
• 52:55
  Speaker 5: Every time you like, who's been in the top three
• 52:57
  Speaker 5: in comedy since I'm nineteen seventy, the majority of the
• 53:04
  Speaker 5: top three top gross early I'm not even talking about
• 53:06
  Speaker 5: whether you like them or not. I'm talking about the
• 53:08
  Speaker 5: highest grossing act of the year was black.
• 53:12
  Speaker 2: Whether it was Richard Pryor or Red Fox or.
• 53:16
  Speaker 5: Cat or Mike Epps or Kevin Hart or Martin or like.
• 53:22
  Speaker 5: And if it wasn't one, it was an entity like
• 53:24
  Speaker 5: King's of Comedy or now eighty five South like, why
• 53:27
  Speaker 5: let's get to eighty five comedy clubs. Let's get let's
• 53:30
  Speaker 5: expand and grow our industry because the people want to
• 53:35
  Speaker 5: come to shows. And then you control the butt, you
• 53:37
  Speaker 5: control the dollar. There's no more you in the back
• 53:39
  Speaker 5: getting ripped off or they don't treat you right, because
• 53:42
  Speaker 5: now you know how to be treating you know what
• 53:44
  Speaker 5: I'm saying. And I want us to get it right too,
• 53:47
  Speaker 5: because I have done other black owned clubs and been.
• 53:49
  Speaker 2: Like, come on, y'all, yeah, I don't really, I don't
• 53:52
  Speaker 2: play like that. We do.
• 53:53
  Speaker 5: We you know, we run a good show, but it's
• 53:56
  Speaker 5: a lot to juggle the career and the club and
• 53:58
  Speaker 5: make sure that it's still black. But my team is thorough,
• 54:01
  Speaker 5: so we hold it down and if it works in
• 54:04
  Speaker 5: one place, it should, in theory work in another place.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: So I think that that if I.
• 54:08
  Speaker 5: Could leave something with with the with the entertainers that
• 54:11
  Speaker 5: are watching, man, what's up? Open something? Open something. Let's
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: get some comedy back on regular TV. Let's make comedy
• 54:19
  Speaker 5: very easy to consume again. When I was a kid,
• 54:22
  Speaker 5: you could go home and Comedy View was on, and
• 54:24
  Speaker 5: and and Comedy Central had specials, and like now you
• 54:27
  Speaker 5: can't find no stand up unless you put it on.
• 54:30
  Speaker 5: I gotta find it, you know what I'm saying, so
• 54:32
  Speaker 5: we need to get to a place where the deaf
• 54:33
  Speaker 5: jams and the comedy like it feels like that again. Yes,
• 54:37
  Speaker 5: so if there's something I can leave with the people,
• 54:39
  Speaker 5: I don't know. Man, just laugh, live your love, live
• 54:40
  Speaker 5: your life to the fullest. Uh, you know, and you
• 54:43
