  Speaker 1: really noted like, I wasn't. I wasn't out there. Most
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: people aren't.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: Most people they're on TikTok, they're on Instagram are usually
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: the one two they're less and less on Twitter is
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: the usually the least likely they'll be on Twitter and
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: YouTube they're the least likely to beyond and Facebook. Even more,
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: they're almost always on Instagram always. So I didn't tag
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: him because I didn't find the name, and I searched
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: the TikTok name, but his Twitter name and his TikTok
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: name were different.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: They were at the time. I don't know.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: They still like that Instagram and Twitter are the same, Okay, yeah, yeah,
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: so I tagged. I just posts, right, Josh finds.
• 1:45
  Speaker 4: The video and he's like big creators still in the
• 1:49
  Speaker 4: content from the little guys.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: They're not tagging us. I was hot, cav, you knows better.
• 1:55

• 2:15
  Speaker 2: to be like, well, what you should have done is

  Speaker 1: Okay, Okay. I in high school, I was a dog,
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I was nice.
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: And then I went to junior college at San Francisco City,
• 6:56

• 7:12
  Speaker 3: that offer to Missouri. So I had a scholarship offer
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: the University.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Of Missouri because the injury you lost out.
• 7:16
  Speaker 3: I lost out on it because they wanted to see
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: my first three games of the season. If they liked
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: what they saw, they were going to offer me a scholarship.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Exact conversation I had with the coach. Tore my finger up,
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: missed my last eight games, so only got to play
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: like three games of my last year at junior college
• 7:29
  Speaker 3: and I graduated the semester early, so I was very like,
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: it was a hard time.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: I had a cousin of mind. His name is Damian Mackie.
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: He played at University of Oklahoma in two thousand and one
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: win a championship.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: Still knew coach students stoops in him. And then a.
• 7:42
  Speaker 3: Scout had came to San Francisco City and saw me
• 7:45
  Speaker 3: play and was just like they were pretty much just like,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: if he gets into the school academically, will invite him
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: to walk on. So I got into the school, you
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: know what I'm saying. And then and I walked on
• 7:55
  Speaker 3: to university history.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: So it was cool. It was fun. But let me
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: tell tell you why it's not worth it if you're
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: not going to the NFL. Okay, I love this, Please
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: tell me D one football is the most crucially the hardest,
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: most debilitating self esteem killing it it was. It was
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: the hardest thing I ever did.
• 8:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm talking five forty five am workouts. By six o'clock,
• 8:22
  Speaker 3: you're sweating bullets, We're running up parking lot ramps. No rest,
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: it's one hundred and twelve degrees outside, you know.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: Uh.
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: And then I broke my wrist the first day of practice.
• 8:33
  Speaker 3: What it's crazy. It was crazy. It was wild, right,
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: it was crazy. But the only thing that was like
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: that sucks about being injured as well. If you get
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: injured and it's not your leg, once you do your
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: morning workout, so I was in the cast, still do
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: the workouts.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: When you do the morning.
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: Workout before you later in the day, before you can
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: just sit and watch practice, you have to do another
• 8:54
  Speaker 3: workout then you can chill and watch practice.
• 8:57
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to work while in truth, yes, so
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: hand injuries are just like don't matter in the cast,
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: do matter, but you.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Do need your hands to play football.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: I've seen people play with the club on no facts,
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: but I was a receiver. I had so look so
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: they just had me doing lower bodies. So I had
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: to do lower body workouts before I could just chill
• 9:14
  Speaker 3: and watch practice.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: Because I was injured.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: So you do your morning workout and then you do
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: another one in the day and then you can chill.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: I promised to God. I was lunging as God as
• 9:24
  Speaker 3: my witness. Two hundred and forty five pounds lunging three
• 9:28
  Speaker 3: set to ten each leg easy easy work too easy?
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: One what easy? Easily?
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: No?
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Lie, they don't get you a big bar with a big.
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: Bar easy, no, no, no difficulties lunging. And I'm not lying.
• 9:42
  Speaker 3: I'm talking about lunching. I don't believe you're lying.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: I just lunging because the thought of that.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: I tore my acl in serious, you know what I'm saying,
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: just thinking about doing this.
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: Tour it and then because I had it on for
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: about three and a half months, I broke a very
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: small bone in my wrist. And to my knowledge, the
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: smaller the bone you break, the longer it takes the
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: hill because of like blood circulation. The bigger the bone
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: you break the faster. So it was it was cool,
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: but you know, midway through the season, I was like,
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: I don't want to play football anymore.
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: The school is great, the girls are really beautiful. This

  Speaker 3: I'm just feeling in the sideline and in Oklahoma is
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: too hot or too cold to be sitting there right.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: So one day I decided to show up. I was like,
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: you know what, I'm gonna dress up you know what
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: I'm saying. I do the warm ups.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: First of all, this is how much they didn't care
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: if I didn't play. They didn't even put air in
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: my helmet cushions in my game helmet. It's just no
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: air in there, like it gave me to be as
• 13:43
  Speaker 3: high as it was like a prop.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: I don't care.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: And so and then it was really cold. This is
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: when it was getting colder. So it's it's on the sideline.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Were talking like it's about forty forty two, like who
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: it's like not super.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Super cold, the very cool and Ohoman has that cold
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: win because it's just like.
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: The breeze is crazy, but they have heaters on the sideline, right,
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: the walk ones. We caught ourselves the Buds because the
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: coaches never knew our names.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: They always they always just say, oh, nice to meet you,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: but like good job. But like, we caught ourselves the Buds, right,
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: and it got kind of popular to the point where
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: some of the players wanted to and he was like,
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: you're not a bud bro coach, know you watch out?
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: B Right, caught ourselves the Buds, and they wouldn't let
• 14:34
  Speaker 3: us stand by the heater. Only the players that play
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: you no, And I remember trying to school close and
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: like get my hand, and the coaches.
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: Like everybody moved. Everybody moved right now, get away if
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: you're not playing, get away from the heater. And it
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: was like, yo, bro, that's great, that's why. Yeah, the
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: only players deserved warmth. Only players. That is one. I
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: could see a football coach stating that.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: With without without taking your breath, you deserve cold.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like with the heat for my dog.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: Only the people that literally are the reason why I'm
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: like keeping my job, I promise to God. Like football
• 15:11
  Speaker 3: culture in college is brutal to the points where I
• 15:14
  Speaker 3: was like, if I get married and have kids, like
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: that's the only sport I'm not letting them play. Yeah,
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: and I love football, I get it, but you're not
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: playing football. You can play any other sport except that.
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: And I'm like a football is everything. But yeah, And
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: coaches like, if you know kids or they get recruited,
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: understand that, like.
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: Their job is to keep their job. And if your
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: kid is going to be.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: The reason why they why they can keep that job,
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: it is about your kid for their job, Like they
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: don't really care about these kids.
• 15:53

• 16:42
  Speaker 3: And so I think that was something that really like
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: opened my eyes just being around a big D one
• 16:49
  Speaker 3: program And it's not personal towards the program, the coaches,
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: but it's just a business.
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: It really is a business.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: And at that level for that school. That's a if
• 16:59
  Speaker 2: not one hundred million, close to one hundred million dollar business.
• 17:02
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Texas I know is like one hundred million,
• 17:04
  Speaker 2: and if Oklahoma's probably eighty if not a hun I.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: Think the NCAA makes like six point two billion a years.
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: It's something.
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: And they just started cutting niggas in like two years,
• 17:13
  Speaker 2: and they're mad about it.
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: They're like set and the pot is this.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: They're like, all they're asking for is let us make
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: our own brand, like when you sell my jersey.
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: And they're like, oh my god, bro, why do you
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: y'all want to make money? Why we give you an education?
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: Work thousand major communications majors. You're gonna have a guaranteed
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: job after you graduate.
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: And also most people don't know like your schedule is
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: is basically picked by the football team.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Like you can't absolutely.
• 17:40
  Speaker 2: Pursue a major that conflicts with football.
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: I was a health and exercise health and exercise science
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: major when I came to Oklahoma. But you have I
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: came in as a junior. You have to have sixty
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: percent of your uh you're major done by your junior year.
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: I didn't have that.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: So they were like, in order to play football, you
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: have to be in communications as major sociology. And I
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: was like, so on brand, and my dumb self said, yeah,
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: I'll do it, like because because what am I going
• 18:07
  Speaker 3: to do with health? And I don't know that, but
• 18:09
  Speaker 3: like I had to, I had to conform.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: And so let's move to your current career. The TikTok
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: person now, And I don't know how you feel of yourself,
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: but in my mind, there are and this is no
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: disrespect to anybody, there are TikTokers right, and then there's
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: people who are using TikTok. Right to me, you are
• 18:34
  Speaker 2: an actor, writer, director who is using TikTok, but your
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: skill and your talent far.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: Supersede that medium.
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: But in today's day and age, in order to get
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: your name out there, this is a great medium. But
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: the dark side of that moon is when you are
• 18:54
  Speaker 2: that talented, it can be frustrating because you're like Kanye
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: has a line that really resonate with me, Like day,
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: these nigga's that much better than me to have that
• 19:03
  Speaker 2: talent and you because your your your videos.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: People consume them quickly. But as a writer, director, editor, I'm.
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: Like, oh that boy, Yeah, you gotta write to play
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: four or five characters, right, you got to write that
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: script for each character, and you gotta shoot yourself there. Yeah,
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: you got to change clothes, shoot yourself there. You got
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: to match your eye line to where that character is.
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: And then you gotta come back and edit that on
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: your phone or on a thing, and you gotta layer
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: it so that you can pull some of that audio
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: forward before that character you understand you know where well,
• 19:37
  Speaker 2: you know very well that video goes viral or does
• 19:39
  Speaker 2: it or doesn't. And then somebody's like, when's the next one,
• 19:42
  Speaker 2: And you're like, nigga, this took me like twelve hours.
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: And I know you've be seeing me get at some
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: of them on You really gotta let.
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: Your people don't understand because they are only consuming the
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: minute and a half. You're right, they can't and they
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: really and it's like it's ignorance and out in the
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: mean way, like they really don't understand how much time
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: your video take.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: So and then you are you're crying on que. I
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: try tell me that before we go back to that.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Tell me how you are so able to cry on?
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: Que What is it? I don't know? Okay, if you
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: just got to really just think about something real sad.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Is that easy for you
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: a little bit? Yes?
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: I just think about my bank account all right, and
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: easily does it?
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: Honestly, I think.
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: I think like, first of all, I've been by myself
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: a very long time, so I have time to just
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: practice stuff.
• 20:52
  Speaker 1: And I felt like I would I would just try
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: to practice. I don't know, like in my room, try
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: to cry, really.
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: You try to cry, You really concentrate, all right, you
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: message your throat a lot. Okay, you can get like
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: some tears going, okay, But in twenty twenty three, they're
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: gonna they're gonna see g I that in You're You're good.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: You don't even need to I saw it the other day.
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think that like for me, You're right,
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Like I wanted to be an actor on TikTok. I
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: wanted to be an actor on social media versus like
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: there are people who are.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: Actually TikTokers, right, I'm not gonna have to be a TikToker.
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: I can dance.
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: I don't have clever like ways to use the popular sounds.
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: I was never talented in that area. There are some
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: people were.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Like, how do you think of that? To use that sound?
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: And it's like perfect.
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: But the way that I work is I have to write.
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: If I can't write, it's hard for me to create,
• 21:45
  Speaker 3: which is why I really do kind of envy creators
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: that are very popular but their videos only take like
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: ten seconds.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: You like that could make like ten of those me.
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: But you're but it's like incredibly good.
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: You're both though that was just don't for sure, I
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: don't spend the time to appreciate it.
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: You're one of the creators that really uh you you
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: you know, some people might get there's no time or
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: any app that you haven't like adapted to like which
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: is really talented though a lot of people can't do that.
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: Some people are hot with Vine, not with Instagram, or
• 22:23
  Speaker 3: hot with Instagram, not with TikTok. You've transitioned to each
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: and YouTube, which is like, that's great because I'm on
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: like three apps. That's it, tick Talk, Instagram, kind of Twitter.
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: Anything beyond that, it's like, I don't. I don't do that.
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: It's not my thing.
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: But yeah, like a lot of the writing is how
• 22:48
  Speaker 3: I create. I need space. I need ways to really
• 22:55
  Speaker 3: I need to build a slight build a way to
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: like tell the story, you know what.
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: I mean, and.
• 23:02
  Speaker 3: I feel like the reason why I get so like
• 23:05
  Speaker 3: irritated with people if they say where's the next skit?
• 23:08
  Speaker 3: Like the other day, Bro, I literally said, wow, forty
• 23:09
  Speaker 3: zero's crazy.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: I was watching the Cowboys k somebody was like, where's
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: his skit? I was like, I don't.
• 23:14
  Speaker 3: Want when it worked for you fam like till you
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: get him when you get them, and I kid you not.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: I was like, I shouldn't have said that. I should
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: have just I should have just relaxed, Like.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Do you think it's do you think you feel that
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: people don't appreciate what you put into it and that
• 23:31
  Speaker 2: what irritates you.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Yes, it feels like a little bit. It's kind of
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: on some like we don't care that you're a human being,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Like get to work.
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: It's how it feels. And you asked me when's the
• 23:45
  Speaker 3: next skit? Especially if I just dropped them like a
• 23:48
  Speaker 3: day ago. At first I used to not respond though
• 23:52
  Speaker 3: I was very cut and clean and disciplined.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: But now I don't care. Shut your mouth, Steve. When
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: I get to it. Now I'm like, I got time.
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: It's interesting.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: What's funny about that is people are actually saying I
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: enjoy your content.
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: I want more of it, and then you're yelling at
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: that badly. It's like, how when are you gonna make
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: stuff re enjoyed so much? And I'm like, shut them, mound.
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: I don't even like giving you stuff, but it's tough.
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: Like Steve Harvey just said this this week.
• 24:19
  Speaker 2: He was like, people, when you're a creator like this,
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: you know, people enjoy what you create. They need you
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: to help them feel better about their day. If something's
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: offered them they have a day, or they just want
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: to laugh at the very chain. They don't necessarily care
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: what's going on in your day.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: That's very true, right.
• 24:37
  Speaker 2: Kevin Hart had this. I don't know if you saw
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: the series of him and Wesley's Knipes on Netflix.
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I think it was oh when they were brothers. Yeah, yeah,
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: I saw that one.
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: And the one thing I really connected to with that
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: is like, in this business, you're gonna have some real
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: life stuff happening.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that appearance still gotta happen.
• 24:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that show that being on set, Like I remember
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: when Tony Baker's son passed away. I found and he
• 25:00
  Speaker 2: Tony's like a brother. Yeah, seraing was like a nephew close.
• 25:03
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying friend's son is like, oh
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: my god, I had to show forty three minutes after that.
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: Oh man, so I found out and I had and
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: them people who bought their ticket, Yeah, they don't have
• 25:14
  Speaker 2: cold hearts. Yeah, but they're like, nigga, I got my
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: own problem.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah. So I give you money and for this hour, yeah,
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: I can't think about that.
• 25:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: So that's the exchange you kind of sign up for.
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: But at the same time, it makes you feel like
• 25:27
  Speaker 2: your personhood isn't valued, yeah, but your art is, yeah.
• 25:32
  Speaker 3: You know, which is why like I appreciate the everything
• 25:38
  Speaker 3: about like okay, Like for instance, like I've always understood,
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: just in the beginning that to your point, people.
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: Like what you do.
• 25:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't necessarily like you as much, you know
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: what I mean, And that's.
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: Why they consume you. They consume you, And that's why
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: I was like, it's a big difference between like when
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: a lot of people are like all my closest friends
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: don't support me, but the strangers do blah blah blah,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: And I always say, you gotta understand that your friends
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: care more.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: About you than what you do. They're more invested in
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: you than what you're doing. So like they'll see you
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: when you make skits, not the skits, like yeah, that's.
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: That's that's oh, that's kept all that josh.
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: And they might just scroll past it like, well, you
• 26:19
  Speaker 3: ain't sharing my stuff, and they're just like, I'm thinking
• 26:22
  Speaker 3: about the product. I was just like you, you're doing
• 26:25
  Speaker 3: big things. I mean, like they might not share or
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: like all of your stuff. But I bet you if
• 26:33
  Speaker 3: like my homies right in the very beginning when I
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: was like cranking out stuff, they were like sharing it,
• 26:37
  Speaker 3: like helping me, right, And then after a while they
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: was just like.
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: You don't even like you that much, you know what
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: But they might not share or like my stuff all
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: the time, they always like my skits every now and
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: then I'd be like, all right, nigga can comment on that. No, no,
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: we ain't getting no, we ain't getting no no comments something.
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: The extra sauce on that.
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: But I know that if my car breaks down on
• 26:59
  Speaker 3: the bridge at two o'clock in the morning and my
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: phone like in every and I'm just in a buying
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: where I have nobody to get it, I guarantee you
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: one of them will come get me.
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: One hundred percent. That's a good points really good point.
• 27:11
  Speaker 3: Friends, they really are invested in you skits and stuff.
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: So but to the consumer thing, I think I've also realized, like, yes,
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: the consumer job is to consume, and I'm grateful for
• 27:23
  Speaker 3: it because there's a lot of people whose content isn't
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: getting consumed.
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: But also now I'm setting the rules.
• 27:30
  Speaker 3: I'm setting the energy, and the energy is y'all are
• 27:33
  Speaker 3: not my supporters, your family, you're friends of mine. So
• 27:37
  Speaker 3: if I tell you to shut up and wait.
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: Just know that I'm like, no, that's the homie.
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: That's how I want people to see me as Sometimes
• 27:47
  Speaker 3: if I'm too cut and clean and just like respond
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: with oh I'm sorry you feel that way, get to
• 27:54
  Speaker 3: it right away, it's like it's not real, it's not me,
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: and I'm the break character. Eventually, Now I'm not gonna
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: get myself canceled or anything. I'm not doing that except
• 28:01
  Speaker 3: for if I start a podcast. Like I said, but
• 28:05
  Speaker 3: I want people to start seeing like me. Yes, I
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: want people to start seeing Joshua.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Like.
• 28:10
  Speaker 3: So when I be arguing with people rarely i'm mad,
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: or when I go at it with people on Twitter
• 28:15
  Speaker 3: about sports, like the dudes we be getting mad. I
• 28:17
  Speaker 3: love that because I'm like, this is black barbershop talk.
• 28:21
  Speaker 3: And I'm like, if y'all are around me and my
• 28:23
  Speaker 3: friends when we talk to each other, you'll understand. Because
• 28:26
  Speaker 3: we even have a rule that's like, no matter how
• 28:28
  Speaker 3: badly I treat you, you can't stop being my friend.
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: It's impossible. We've been friends since tenth grade. What are
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: you gonna do? I love that, What are you gonna do?
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: Adapted some of that in myself. I slipped up and.
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: Told my Patreon and my podcast audience that.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: I hate meet and greets. Oh word, I hate them? Really?
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: I always have, have you always? Why? What's the reason?
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: I it's a second performance.
• 28:55
  Speaker 2: Ah. So in order to do a meet and greet,
• 28:57
  Speaker 2: I have to be smiling and giddy. I have to
• 29:00
  Speaker 2: be the person that they came to see.
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: Do you have to know you do? Okay, you do.
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: My first tour, apparently I didn't realize this, and my
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: my wife and my Tony into here told me, They're like, uh,
• 29:12
  Speaker 2: you need to smile.
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: The whole time. You're only smiling for the picture with
• 29:16
  Speaker 1: the person. And then.
• 29:20
  Speaker 2: But when you walk by and the other person's coming,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: I'm just and then like you realize the people in
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: line are seen, they're like, oh snap, I got an idea. So,
• 29:30
  Speaker 2: but they take a lot of energy. And my dad,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: he was he's always been kind of like gotting me,
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: and he was like, your job, especially your performer live,
• 29:37
  Speaker 2: you got to make sure you have enough energy to
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: give the people what they pay for. And if if
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: they pay for the meat and greet, you gotta have
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: that energy. But if that's gonna affect your ability to perform,
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: then maybe you shouldn't do that. He was really talking
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: about like before the show. I was doing them after
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: but it was just like carry Yeah. So I finally
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: told my audience and they were just like, God, we
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: get it. You see like this don't do And I
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: think it's okay to your point of like part of
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: your actual truth with your real audience. Yeah, you can
• 30:06
  Speaker 2: share because as long as you are who you say
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: you are, people can accept that.
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: It's when you.
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: Present one way and then they meet you, you're like
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: a jerk and oh could you catch me in the
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: airport or in the mom I'm always gonna have enough
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: energy because that's a short interaction. Absolutely yeah, but after
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: a show I wouldn't because the first meeting greet I
• 30:22
  Speaker 2: do after show, I had two shows.
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: Me and Melissa did an hour and a half.
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: I take a little break, and then I did forty
• 30:28
  Speaker 2: five minutes to an hour on stage, and then the
• 30:30
  Speaker 2: moment I finished, then I'd have an hour to an
• 30:32
  Speaker 2: hour and a half meet and.
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: Great, gotch you. So it's like four hours of performing. Yeah,
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: that's that's a long time. Yeah, that's a long time.
• 30:37
  Speaker 3: Doing a stand up is a lot of a lot
• 30:39
  Speaker 3: of energy and is the art form that I've never
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: been time. You know, I'm not gonna lie. Like also
• 30:44
  Speaker 3: too with social media on the videos and just we're
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: always on, always, always on. So when you have your
• 30:50
  Speaker 3: time to like come down, it's like, ah cool. But
• 30:52
  Speaker 3: then when you see people, you got to kind of
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: be on it, and sometimes you don't, you don't want
• 30:56
  Speaker 3: to be. But I'll tell you this though, I'm always
• 31:00

  Speaker 2: Like I have a short film I'm working on and
• 36:43
  Speaker 2: you drop those like you. I can see that like
• 36:47
  Speaker 2: a little. I mean, I'm an amazing for talent, outstanding
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: for talent, but I feel like you have that certain
• 36:55
  Speaker 2: it factor talent wise work after you got the you
• 36:59
  Speaker 2: got the true artist.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: I am not my work.
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: You have to love me that is such an artist,
• 37:05
  Speaker 2: like because you care so much, that's hard to you
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: just want to consume my you know, like you've got
• 37:11
  Speaker 2: to care like that, Like I can see you throwing
• 37:14
  Speaker 2: yourself into some roles.
• 37:16
  Speaker 3: The Kobe Harry is another one. Oh, super talented. She
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: she she she doesn't. I don't think she's getting her dudes,
• 37:24
  Speaker 3: she's incredible. She's incredible. She's not gonna do so you.
• 37:26
  Speaker 2: Can watch her in there's a clip from I think it's.
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: At the dinner table when you appreciate the art of act.
• 37:36
  Speaker 4: Everything she does, I'm telling you she married. Go ahead,
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: the small looks to look away, the pause. I'm like, dog, you.
• 37:47
  Speaker 3: Are in it. It's a lot of she brings. It's
• 37:50
  Speaker 3: a lot of sub a lot of texts, a lot
• 37:52
  Speaker 3: of subtleties. That's how the human beings actually are. My
• 37:55
  Speaker 3: wife knows when I have an attitude, I don't have
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: to stomp. She can look at me, your energies off.
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: That's what she does. And that's what you have as well.
• 38:03
  Speaker 3: And I think in your short films it really showcases
• 38:06
  Speaker 3: like that, uh, burgeoning talent.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: Right, So what do you feel like for you? I
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: know you got to watch movies and be like, I watch.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: Movies all all the time. I'm still trying to look
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: up Nicole right now, you know, because you want to
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: make sure that you know things before you start talking
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: about talking about you want to be respectful. Let me
• 38:37
  Speaker 1: she's not married. We good.
• 38:39
  Speaker 3: There you go, She's good, Kobe Harry, that's incredible. The
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: first time I saw her was in I Want to
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Say Jackie.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: The movie Yes and Yes, and I was like, she's
• 38:56
  Speaker 1: she she she has a lot of subtexts, and she
• 38:59
  Speaker 1: says a lot without saying anything, and and but more so,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: one thing I really like about her she takes things
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: in truthfully, very much.
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: Like she soaks in with the accurate saying. That's really
• 39:10
  Speaker 3: difficult to me is to really take in what's being
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: said to you because it always affects how you like,
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: say your next line. But sure, she takes it in
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: so well, and she kills every role that she's in,
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: and it's a it's a it's a huge question mark
• 39:23
  Speaker 3: to me.
• 39:24
  Speaker 1: Is like I should be seeing her and like everything and.
• 39:28
  Speaker 3: Maybe, you know, she could be one of those actresses
• 39:30
  Speaker 3: that's very selective. Maybe she doesn't want to just be in.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Everything, getting enough opportunities she should go there.
• 39:36
  Speaker 2: I don't want to say more, but that's what's happening
• 39:40
  Speaker 2: because there's no way via Davis. When she was like,
• 39:42
  Speaker 2: y'all want to you know, she dropped hers a little bit. Yeah,
• 39:45
  Speaker 2: y'all compare me to Meryl Street. Why making them.
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: Listen and valid. Davis is a legend. She one of
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: the best periods.
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: She's the total toe with Denzel was boy, come on, respectfully,
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: was washed. And sometimes that's the actor allowing that. I'm
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: not saying he's not talented. Sometimes you let the person
• 40:09
  Speaker 2: wash you. Because it was her seem to win her moment.
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: It was her moment. First of all, you need to
• 40:13
  Speaker 2: be a gracious coach. You do a coach, star you
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: co actor.
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: For sure.
• 40:17
  Speaker 3: You can bring the acting, you can bring the tears. Yes,
• 40:20
  Speaker 3: you can bring a lot of things, but naturally bring snot.
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: And live in it and live in it. And when
• 40:28
  Speaker 1: they said cut, I know she stayed in here. And
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: you know that's not the only take. No, no, it's
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: not the only take. So to do it consistently, there's
• 40:36
  Speaker 1: no way for me. That's different.
• 40:37
  Speaker 3: That's nobody's controlling snot you try nobody.
• 40:42
  Speaker 2: You know, that's her moment because she's been docile that
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: whole play, that whole movie.
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: Denzel can't win that because it takes away from her.
• 40:50
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: Listen, you're not bringing snot nobody's doing that. That's different.
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: That made me question ask you is are you trained me? Yeah?
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: Tell you. Uh So, I've taken a lot of acting classes.
• 41:06
  Speaker 3: I took a Miser class, I've joined a Meisner program.
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: That is pretty much a.
• 41:10
  Speaker 3: Certain acting technique, one of those Okay, what's it, what's
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: his technique or her technique? His technique is pretty much
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: in my opinion is uh, it's more so using I
• 41:21
  Speaker 3: don't want to sound ignorant, don't sound dumb, but it's
• 41:23
  Speaker 3: in my opinion, it's more so using like repetition and
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: using being truthful under imaginary circumstances, which is the definition
• 41:32
  Speaker 3: of acting. But it's more so like you're you're using
• 41:34
  Speaker 3: the repetition and you're really concentrating on your You're using
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: your imagination to its t like that's your pinpoint of
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: that's what's going to make this truthful. The reason why
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: I couldn't give you guys a way better description of
• 41:47
  Speaker 3: it is because it was a two year program I
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: got kicked out in three months.
• 41:50
  Speaker 1: Let me explain though, Yeah, it wasn't my fault. I know,
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: I have an excuse for all of my mistakes. What
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: let me tell you. Yeah. So with San Francisco, it's
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: a two year program in San Francisco. I joined it.
• 42:08
  Speaker 3: It was very expensive though. First of all, these acting
• 42:10
  Speaker 3: classes are expensive. They're like thirteen hundred dollars.
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: Every two months, three months. They're very pricey.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: With my acting teachers, they are the strict, the most strict, passionate,
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: militant teachers I have ever.
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: Had in my life.
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: Not math, science, biology, chemistry, none of my college professors.
• 42:35
  Speaker 3: You walk in five minutes late, like late, but whatever,
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: you're paying to be here.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: You're an adult. Acting teachers don't care how old you are.
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: They will scout.
• 42:45
  Speaker 3: There were grown adults at the time in there that
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: they would come in five minutes late, and.
• 42:49
  Speaker 1: The acting teacher would be like, get out, get out,
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: get out.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: So imagine you're like you're forty five and there's another
• 42:57
  Speaker 3: get out, Oh, get out of my class. Now you
• 43:00
  Speaker 3: want to say, what, get out, I'll let you back,
• 43:03
  Speaker 3: like seriously, they don't play around, like, they don't play around.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: They don't even care if you called before.
• 43:08
  Speaker 3: About something it no, don't show up to my class.
• 43:12
  Speaker 3: So the reason why I got kicked out of my class,
• 43:14
  Speaker 3: and I'll make it very quick, is because in the beginning,
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: there was there was a thirteen There was eighteen people
• 43:20
  Speaker 3: in the class.
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: There was like fifty seats.
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: It was just eighteen of us. We would all sit separately,
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: you know, we didn't know it. Nobody knew each other. Yeah,
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: And in the beginning we were doing the repetition exercise,
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: which is pretty much you repeat what I say. So
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: if I say I say you look angry today, they'll say,
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: I look angry at you look angry today. You look
• 43:41
  Speaker 3: angry today. You look angry today. I look angry today.
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: You look angry today. I look angry today. You look
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: angry today. So you keep saying it until you get
• 43:50
  Speaker 3: to the point to where it reaches its peak and
• 43:54
  Speaker 3: it causes you, truthfully.
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: To say, why you say that? Why do I say that?
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: Why do you say that? Why do I say that?
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: Why do you say that? Why do I say that?
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: Why do you say that? Why do I say that?
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: Why do you say that? Until you get to the
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: point where it's like, yes, why do you say that?
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: And you goes, yes, why do I? So it's like
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: one of those ye.
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: So they're pretty much teaching you to take in was
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: being said to you and truthfully and it'll affect the
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: way you give it back out.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Like that's how we started off. Cool. I sucked terrible.
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: It's terribly sucked, exactly terrible.
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: But throughout the class I started getting better. But he
• 44:34
  Speaker 3: would rip me apart in the class after just like
• 44:37
  Speaker 3: you're not paying attention, you're not doing it, blah blah.
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: But everybody would get their fair share, and.
• 44:41
  Speaker 3: Then I started getting better throughout the weeks, really really good,
• 44:45
  Speaker 3: to where it went from me getting like ripped apart
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: to me getting like kind of like high praise from
• 44:49
  Speaker 3: like all the time. Long story short, we had a
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: exercise where you have to bring in an activity with
• 44:57
  Speaker 3: you during this repetition exercise. This was like a next
• 44:59
  Speaker 3: let level of it. You bring it in activity with you.
• 45:02
  Speaker 3: It has to be something that causes you to concentrate.
• 45:04
  Speaker 3: So maybe you're building a cardhouse with a bunch of cards,
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: something that you really have to concentrate on, and you're
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: still doing the repetition.
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: If I say you look, uh, you look focused. You're like,
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: I look focused, Look focused, I look focused. Like you
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: have to really.
• 45:22
  Speaker 3: Keep doing it right while you bring in activity and
• 45:25
  Speaker 3: you bring an emotion in with you, real ones. And
• 45:28
  Speaker 3: so people started turning into like Denzel and stuff. Bringing
• 45:30
  Speaker 3: in real stuff. People were like crying and everything. It
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: was a bit much for me. I was like, I'm
• 45:35
  Speaker 3: not bringing nothing real in here, but I'll try. I
• 45:37
  Speaker 3: don't even know y'all like that. So, so there's a
• 45:42
  Speaker 3: person doing an activity and there's a person in a room,
• 45:45
  Speaker 3: in a little room. Now, depending on the knock on
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: that door, you have to answer it. Depending on the
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: knock will tell you. The knock will tell you what
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: kind of mood I'm in. If I bang on it,
• 45:55
  Speaker 3: that means I'm.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: Mad, I'm happy, if I'm in a hurry, that kind
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: of thing. This is exciting, yes, once you open it.
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: But the way it goes is so the person stops
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: doing activity, answers the door, but whatever emotion, and I
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: might have it, and I might have it backwards. But
• 46:16
  Speaker 3: the person who answers the door, once the door is opened,
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: whatever emotion the person had that was knocking on the door,
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: whether you're angry or whatever, you must drop it. It's
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: now about the mood of the person with the activity.
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: Got it.
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: You have to adjust to that. So whatever mood you're feeling,
• 46:33
  Speaker 3: as the knocker.
• 46:34
  Speaker 1: You're supposed to drop it. Okay. So this day that
• 46:37
  Speaker 1: I come, I do in my activity.
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: I have I have movie tickets. I collect movie tickets.
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: So I've been collecting movie tickets.
• 46:43
  Speaker 1: It's like twenty fifteen, like actual Yeah, I have like
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: a box. Do they still make actual tickets?
• 46:48
  Speaker 2: Oh?
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you still go or even if you print them online?
• 46:51
  Speaker 1: You can request a ticket.
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: I'll give you one. I have a box full of them.
• 46:54
  Speaker 3: So I'm counting adding up movie tickets. I'm adding up
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: how much money I've spent over the years tickets. I
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: suck at math, So this was something I really needed
• 47:03
  Speaker 3: to concentrate on. The knocker is furious. She bangs on
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: the door, almost knocks it down. I opened the door.
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: She don't drop her mood. She's still screaming at me
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: the whole time. Now with me, you can call it
• 47:16
  Speaker 3: mature or immature, But if you're blowing up on me
• 47:18
  Speaker 3: like yelling at me, I'm very calm oh. I respond
• 47:21
  Speaker 3: calmly because it's my chance to be a little petty
• 47:24
  Speaker 3: and I'm gonna really dig into that skin of yours.
• 47:26
  Speaker 1: You're already mad, let's get curious.
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: So and this is something i'm working on. So I'm
• 47:32
  Speaker 3: single and stuff.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: That's yeah.
• 47:35
  Speaker 3: If she's upset, well it was because you didn't so yeah,
• 47:43
  Speaker 3: so that's what I was doing. My teacher didn't think
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: it was truthful. She thought I was lying, and I
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: was like, no, I'm really like this for real. And
• 47:50
  Speaker 3: if it's not truthful, then they like, tell you you're
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: not doing the exercise right.
• 47:54
  Speaker 1: All this stuff. The teacher comes back. We had two
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: acting teachers, by the way.
• 47:58
  Speaker 3: She teaches every Thursday, the last Thursday of the month.
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: He comes to back to the school. She tells him
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: what I was doing, I wasn't doing it right. I
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: was like, I was doing it right. He's like, you're
• 48:08
  Speaker 3: not being truthful. I was like, y'all don't know me.
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: How do you know I'm not being truthful. If you
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: don't know me for real, I'll get my friends here,
• 48:13
  Speaker 3: I'll tell you that's really him and then come to
• 48:16
  Speaker 3: find out they were dating.
• 48:18
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Yeah she used to be
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: a student. Oh yeah, you know what I'm saying, and
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: I was like.
• 48:22
  Speaker 3: Y'all, don't think I know what's going on. I got y'all,
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: I know exactly what's happening here. And he's defending your
• 48:29
  Speaker 3: honor on my behalf, like I mean, on.
• 48:31
  Speaker 1: Account of me. I'm not feeling it. So I ended
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: up getting kicked out the class.
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: He was like, you need to email me tomorrow and
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: think about if you really want to be here, and
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: I was like, for thirteen hundred dollars, I feel like
• 48:39
  Speaker 3: I'm supposed to be here, but it was like the
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: last week of class, and I ended up not paying
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: another thirteen hundred dollars. And then I went to another
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: acting teacher and she was really cool. She was great.
• 48:52
  Speaker 3: I don't want this to come off wrong, but I
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: only women acting teachers for me, really only. I'm like
• 48:59
  Speaker 3: that in general, every every person that is close to
• 49:03
  Speaker 3: me outside of the fam. But my doctor all that women,
• 49:07
  Speaker 3: all women why because they actually care and they listen more.
• 49:11
  Speaker 3: And there's no who has bigger balls energy here like
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: they listen genuinely and they make me feel like they care.
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: Women tend to have that effects one hundred and.
• 49:22
  Speaker 3: I needed to learn because at first I thought like
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: she likes me, she's feeling your boy. It was like, no, Joshua,
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to check your symptoms, like, can you.
• 49:34
  Speaker 1: Just roll up your sleeve? List? Can I just take
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: your blood?
• 49:40
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's hilarious.
• 49:46
  Speaker 1: But no, what were you going to say, because they
• 49:48
  Speaker 1: really do care?
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: No, No, I was just saying we on my podcast the
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: last month or so, I side with women. Yeah first
• 49:54
  Speaker 2: and two times Kylie Russell and this girl who got
• 49:57
  Speaker 2: here with a brick.
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: It's coming to questions on the truth. I saw that
• 50:01
  Speaker 1: like yesterday.
• 50:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know about the girl with the brick, but
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: it's coming to question. Yeah, men have been so mad. Really,
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: I'd be like, if you always take women's side, yea,
• 50:09
  Speaker 2: I will continue to do so.
• 50:11
  Speaker 3: They're mad because they like, they think anytime we might
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: get a w maybe the hope.
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: Because we take so many l's.
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: So when they when men feel like they might get
• 50:26
  Speaker 3: a dub, they hold on to it tight, very tight.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: Maybe so, and I'm gonna continue to side with absolutely first.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: I will be wrong believing women first before I ever
• 50:39
  Speaker 2: one of those people who is poking holes for oh
• 50:42
  Speaker 2: for sure, never, for sure, I'll continue. I've been wrong
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: a lot in life. It's never hurt me to be
• 50:47
  Speaker 2: wrong on women's side.
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: Oh no, Like listen, I'm listen. When let's say, like something,
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: when a man happens and you're wrong about it, you're
• 50:54
  Speaker 3: on the wrong side.
• 50:55
  Speaker 1: Who cares? All right? And men will move on quick
• 50:58
  Speaker 1: like well that.
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: But if you're wrong it's a woman situation, you better
• 51:03
  Speaker 3: buckle up, buddy, furious you're a bugle up because now
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: they're going to talk about you being wrong about the situation,
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: and then they're gonna talk about your upbringing for why
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: you thought you were right about that situation.
• 51:15
  Speaker 1: And now you're dug.
• 51:15
  Speaker 3: Into you get it, man? Yeah, and they're gonna remember too. Yeah,
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: no forgetting.
• 51:20
  Speaker 1: Let's put a pin in the acting ability.
• 51:23
  Speaker 2: You also, may I say, are equally as talented as
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: a musician.
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: I appreciate that you are a rapper. You release a EP?
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: I did you released original simony? What's going on? Like
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: you really?
• 51:39
  Speaker 3: The music video, the flow, the cadence wordplay. I'm like, why,
• 51:43
  Speaker 3: I I don't want to say jealous As a man
• 51:49
  Speaker 3: of heft and receding hairline and of some talent, you
• 51:53
  Speaker 3: don't have to you.
• 51:53
  Speaker 1: Can get that fixed. I could there's something.
• 51:57
  Speaker 2: Okay, you get a fixed it's not that important, Okay,
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: it really is it. But you've got the rapping ability
• 52:04
  Speaker 2: to write a lot like Jamie Fox.
• 52:06
  Speaker 1: Remind me of Jamie Fox.
• 52:08
  Speaker 2: Like, if you decided I'm just gonna be an actor,
• 52:10
  Speaker 2: you could excel in that career and go very far.
• 52:13
  Speaker 2: You decide, you know what, I'm not gonna act anymore,
• 52:15
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be a musician, you could go just as far.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: In that career appreciating what is that like to like?
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: Do you have to choose?
• 52:22
  Speaker 2: Do you feel like sometimes I want to express myself
• 52:24
  Speaker 2: in music sometimes in acting you want to do?
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: Like, what's that like for you?
• 52:28
  Speaker 3: I think honestly, I started doing digging in music a
• 52:31
  Speaker 3: little bit because I wanted to be Oh so bro,
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: love your stuff, You're funny at that. Yeah, I started
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: doing music because I thought it would give me a
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: better chance of being discovered for acting. Really, yeah, because
• 52:45
  Speaker 3: a lot of musicians are in are in like shows
• 52:48
  Speaker 3: and things like that, and true, the one thing that
• 52:50
  Speaker 3: I like about musicians is they get to be themselves
• 52:55
  Speaker 3: outside of acting or outside of music, Like in music,
• 52:59
  Speaker 3: the reason like, on top of their talent musically, They're
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: aesthetic is why people love them, whether they're super tatted up,
• 53:05
  Speaker 3: whether you know they they just you know, they wear
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: the clothes they want. So when they get picked for roles,
• 53:11
  Speaker 3: it's a role that fits them to a tea versus actors.
• 53:15
  Speaker 3: It's kind of like you have to be kind of
• 53:19
  Speaker 3: a clean look so you can be in these.
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: Other kind of roles. Right.
• 53:23
  Speaker 3: So I've always kind of like man like, well, if
• 53:25
  Speaker 3: I can get popular as a music artist, then I
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: can have a little bit.
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: More like hey, can I get into the acting scene.
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: It all leads back to acting. Absolutely.
• 53:38
  Speaker 3: It all leads to absolutely and the girls. The girls
• 53:41
  Speaker 3: love musicians, you know what I mean.
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: Like musicians get away with.
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: Their behavior because they're musicians and they're artists.
• 53:48
  Speaker 2: Like you know what, comedians too, we can often say
• 53:50
  Speaker 2: exactly what we feel very true.
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: I ain't doing it no more.
• 53:57
  Speaker 3: But also to get away with saying a lot because
• 54:00
  Speaker 3: their comedian is especially if you know how to do
• 54:02
  Speaker 3: it right part for them is great.
• 54:05
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 54:06
  Speaker 3: So I think that like it all leads back to
• 54:08
  Speaker 3: acting one hundred percent. I just haven't pursued it because
• 54:12
  Speaker 3: I was like as as serious as I could because
• 54:19
  Speaker 3: I'm the music industry. There's not enough structure for me,
• 54:24
  Speaker 3: and I don't under and there's enough structure. I don't
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: understand it. There's way more structure in the acting industry.
• 54:28
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: You have an agent, yes, you you know we take
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: ten percent, we take it. You know everything that's happening, like,
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. You read over your contract. Hey,
• 54:35
  Speaker 3: if I want to leave, I leave, you know what
• 54:37
  Speaker 3: I mean. For the most part, musicians is kind of like.
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: You're in this forever, bro. We don't even know where
• 54:43
  Speaker 1: your money's going. You don't even know where it's going.
• 54:48
  Speaker 1: And every time you buy something or get something, you
• 54:50
  Speaker 1: don't even know. Now you're in debt more and you
• 54:52
  Speaker 1: don't even know it. You don't even know.
• 54:56
  Speaker 3: So you know, for me, it would take honestly, if
• 54:59
  Speaker 3: I were to seriously pursue it, it would take like a
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: small uh. I don't think I would ever sign to
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: a label. I'd have like a manager or something like
• 55:07
  Speaker 3: that and do it that way. Yeah, but yeah, I'm
• 55:10
  Speaker 3: not really a fan of it. I'm still gonna do
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: the music videos for like the EP, and so if
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: I just haven't done.
• 55:14
  Speaker 1: It, it's great, and you know, it's really.
• 55:15
  Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of talented rappers specifically who
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: make amazing actors. Oh yeah, I just watched Top Boy
• 55:23
  Speaker 2: and I didn't even know. The guy who plays Sully
• 55:26
  Speaker 2: is like a like a og grime rapper. I think
• 55:29
  Speaker 2: his name is Kano.
• 55:30
  Speaker 1: I haven't I've only watched like she's one. I still
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: gotta I still gotta get because no, wasn't there like
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: two different time Boys.
• 55:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's the reboot with like Drakens in spring Hill.
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: It's just called Top Boy. The original was rebranded the
• 55:43

  Speaker 2: They wouldn't even believe Snoop like Snoop has acted legit.
• 56:23
  Speaker 2: But I think it's to your point. It's about the
• 56:25
  Speaker 2: authenticity for sure, and the roles they choose.
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: You like Snoop. It's so fun. I was just talking
• 56:28

  Speaker 2: in court the murder case, like the Firmer I remember him,
• 56:37

  Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know how you guys feel about it.
• 56:57
  Speaker 3: I know she's under like a lot of like heat
• 56:58
  Speaker 3: right now. But Dose Cat was good and this episode
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: with a little Diggy.
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: Do you watch that show?
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: They haven't seen day I've seen it the first season,
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: but I haven't watched the rest.
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Of the Okay, yeah, she was in like season I
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: want to say, like two or she's.
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: I imagine she was. She was really good, but you
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: low key she's she has the same feeling you have. Yeah, yeah,
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: I just make my music and consume it. But imagine
• 57:18
  Speaker 2: the few fans that annoy you multiplied by hundreds of thousands.
• 57:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but then she goes to VMAs and you're like, well,
• 57:26
  Speaker 1: I mean listen, he's God like an out of you.
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: I feel different about them. I agreed.
• 57:30
  Speaker 3: I felt like what she was doing was trying to
• 57:33
  Speaker 3: get rid of people that were looking at her as
• 57:35
  Speaker 3: a product. Yes, she's trying to get rid of the
• 57:38
  Speaker 3: fan base that looked at her as just a machine.
• 57:42
  Speaker 3: They were too infatuated with her as a as an artist,
• 57:45
  Speaker 3: not as a person. If you really look at what
• 57:47
  Speaker 3: dojah Cat has done over the past let's say five years,
• 57:53
  Speaker 3: let's go back to the like if you say so,
• 57:57
  Speaker 3: like before dojah Cat started like being let's say, her
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: own person, like she is like right now, like just
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: being her authentically.
• 58:03
  Speaker 1: Like if you look at what she's been doing over
• 58:05
  Speaker 1: the past like five years, she has been worked like
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: a horse, tour hit hit hit, news hit songs, just
• 58:17
  Speaker 1: being on other people's songs.
• 58:19
  Speaker 3: She even, I think put it out publicly once like yo,
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: I really need to rest, Like she tweeted, it was
• 58:23
  Speaker 3: like I need to like just like sleep, and I
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: think I think it got to the point to where
• 58:28
  Speaker 3: she was like, I'm just a product and that's how
• 58:32
  Speaker 3: I'm feeling. So I'm about to really just tell people like,
• 58:34
  Speaker 3: this is what I'm doing. If you don't like it,
• 58:36
  Speaker 3: I don't care.
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: She was in the chats showing feet, the racial chats
• 58:39

  Speaker 3: two or three kids, is up to her. It doesn't matter.
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: I'm in a very not What was the question you've
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: heard through your whole train of thought off totally forgot
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 1: the glass. That's all that matter.
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: The next year, the next five years and your professional career,
• 1:00:32
  Speaker 2: the family side of taking.
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: How do I see my career five years? Yeah? The
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 1: best way it could go for you? Okay, okay, so cool.
• 1:00:39

• 1:00:42
  Speaker 3: You said that this is my wife, two or three
• 1:00:44
  Speaker 3: kids is up there, and I would say I'm an
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 3: established actor. I would like to you know, Childish Gambino
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 3: is one of my biggest inspirations.
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: I lost my feeling everything he does. I love it
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 1: anything he does.
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 3: But I would like to be an established actor that
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 3: doesn't necessarily mean I'm rich and famous. That means I'm
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 3: an established actor. I'm better as an actor. And I
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 3: would like to have my own sketch show really yeah,
• 1:01:15
  Speaker 3: like He and Pil sketch show.
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm working on that now actually really yeah. So
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: you know, prayers to God.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 3: I don't know how it's going to turn out, but
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 3: that's something I'm worry not yet. I'm right, ah your prayer.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 3: I'm having a meeting tomorrow about it.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: Interesting, Yeah, let's go.
• 1:01:30
  Speaker 3: So I would like to make that transition into being,
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 3: you know, an established actor and just a better writer
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 3: and a man who's seriously dating or married to Venetria.
• 1:01:42
  Speaker 1: Two or three kids, doesn't matter, it's up to her.
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 1: And you know what, I got you out. That's probably
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 1: the first name that pops up when I go to
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 1: the search bar. Her name is Venetia. She's she's a model,
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: she's just she's a gorgeous two or three kids as
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: matters to her, and and you know, she's oh my gosh, yeah,
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 1: oh I'm on the podcast. Yeah, this is her.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 3: But I would say, you know, it's just I'm an
• 1:02:17
  Speaker 3: established actor and a writer. I you know, this year
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 3: I wanted to really focus on learning things. A lot
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: of times I can memorize things, I can get things done,
• 1:02:27
  Speaker 3: I can do things, but I haven't learned the whys
• 1:02:31
  Speaker 3: of like why I'm doing it.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 1: You know, I can.
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 3: Film a short film, right, but it's like you know,
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 3: the the rules of third or just like why do
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: certain angles say a certain thing?
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: Why are we painting?
• 1:02:43
  Speaker 3: And during this moment, why are we doing this angle?
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: Just things like that, just learning. So I think that
• 1:02:48
  Speaker 3: it's just important to me in the next five years
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 3: or sooner. It's important to evolve, especially as black creators,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 3: because I do feel that black creators, like you know,
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 3: black creators, actors, writers like you know, you and me
• 1:02:59
  Speaker 3: and plenty of others, we don't necessarily get that freedom
• 1:03:02
  Speaker 3: to branch out and evolve. Sure we're kept in a
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 3: box versus you know, other creators that might they just
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 3: get on the scene and already they're on uh, they're
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 3: on Time magazine, or they're already in movies.
• 1:03:15
  Speaker 1: They're already and you're like, sang like their brand is crazy.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: Now there gonna sound like hate and I don't and
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: that's okay. Yeah, Bobby all tough. She's a young white woman.
• 1:03:28
  Speaker 2: She she just had some podcast clips go viral.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 1: Oh the really dry humor.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, when I tell you, Yeah, she jumped on the scene. Yeah,
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 2: Drake Yotti to Mark Cuban, Connie Marco.
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 1: I'm just like out of there, out of there.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: I mean, you just toil away year after and she's
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: just like, oh, yeah, my neighbor was famous. I found
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 2: some podcast MIC's on the ground, and now I gotta
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 2: and I'm just like, oh, that's how she started. She's like,
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 2: I want to try this, and apparently her first one
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 2: her neighbor was famous and the podcast was so bad.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: Yeah that like she put it out and went viral. Oh,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: and she had shock, And.
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 2: I'm just like, still, oh, Neil, she doesn't appreciate shocks.
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 1: She's out of there. She didn't watch Blue Chill. No,
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 1: she wasn't watching them games.
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 2: She didn't see shocking, the Magic, then the Lakers and
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 2: the Toe.
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: She don't want the Kobe and Shack beef Man and
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 1: all right. I just as a person, just like god, damn,
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. That's not my role, that's
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 1: not my journey.
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: But it is sometimes frustrating because you're like you want
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: to pop at the same time, no one building is better.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: I mean, I she one more question for you go
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: because I know you can understand. This is something I
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 2: often struggle with. What is it like for you when
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 2: you make a video that goes crazy like one of
• 1:04:43
  Speaker 2: your recent ones was like it's very funny. No no,
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: before that, when the dude acts like he don't like
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 2: the crush and he's.
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 1: Like, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well yeah's doing some stuff with real He used
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 2: to put that in her story like then reposted that.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: One thing I struggle with is no matter how well
• 1:05:03
  Speaker 2: a video does, eventually it tapers off absolutely, and you
• 1:05:08
  Speaker 2: you gotta go right back to it sometimes in weeks
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: months to reach.
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: That scess again. Yeah, So what is that like for you?
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 2: Because sometimes I don't say I get I don't want
• 1:05:18
  Speaker 2: to say I get down, but I'm like, I'm competitive
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 2: and stuff, and I'm just like that day, like yesterday,
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 2: I had a great day. Yeah, I mean I was
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 2: like these video I was just which means the rest
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: of this month we're gonna be back to back to
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 2: the job board. I mean some days I'm just like
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: just putting up anything. Yeah, like I want to and
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: I go back and look at previous video success just
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 2: like it gets further and further down the timeline, like
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: how do you get yourself up again? Because I know
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: you really can't create from a place of like I
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: want this to pop. It just doesn't work like that.
• 1:05:51
  Speaker 2: It doesn't work and you can't even created from a
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: place like the more I work I put into it,
• 1:05:55
  Speaker 2: it'll do better because it also doesn't work like that.
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 1: So how do you keep going? Is my quest? I
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 1: U said.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 3: I had a lot of trouble with this in the
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: very beginning because when you pop off at the first time,
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: like early, you're trying to figure out like how to
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: pop off again, and that really gets depressing and stressful.
• 1:06:11
  Speaker 3: And I felt like people could smell it on me too, like.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: You're trying to pop. We don't like that you're trying
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 1: to You're trying to get on. Yeah, you want too much.
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 1: People hate when you want it too much. It's like,
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: you know, they hate it when you want it too much.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 1: It's kind of like a woman when she knows you
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 1: like her too.
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: Much, yeah, or an audition when you really want this part.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: Don't ever let her know you like her too much,
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: even if you do trust me, don't don't let her.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 3: Know, not until you marry her. And I'm gonna tell
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 3: you if I propose to her, I'm gonna be like,
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 3: you kind of want.
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 1: To maybe if you're up for it. I'm kind of
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: you want to maybe get married if you you feel me,
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: if that's what you like, I'm doing that, Like cav
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna get on the knee. And because
• 1:06:52
  Speaker 1: she might say no, because I want to marry her
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 1: to the love is too much passion here, So you
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: kind of maybe you want to, you know what I'm saying.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 1: You say no, It's cool. I'm just asking.
• 1:07:03
  Speaker 3: So anyways, I feel like, what the place that got
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 3: me to a solid just like, I do it for
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 3: me now, I truly do like I got to that
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 3: place where I was like, I.
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 1: Have to do it for me.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 3: Even if it doesn't pop, I don't care. I liked it,
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 3: you know, and you learn more about yourself as a creator,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 3: and then you kind of learn your audience too, because
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 3: that's a whole other thing. And I've noticed that if
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 3: there's only two people in my skit, it really has
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: to be great. The dialogue and the situation has to
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 3: be great. But normally when I have three or more people,
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 3: the interaction with more, it's more characters for the audience,
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 3: for different parts.
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 1: Of the audience to like there's more versas.
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 3: Right, So you know, I have another skit I haven't
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 3: done yet, but in San Francisco a lot when you're
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: out there shopping on the street, they're like these Christians
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 3: that always tell you like, you're going to hell tomorrow.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 1: I hope you know that if you haven't, if you
• 1:08:01
  Speaker 1: don't repent now.
• 1:08:03
  Speaker 3: So I wrote this funny skit about a person just
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 3: shopping and he's just like, how you doing, brother? They
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: be repented yet the girds is like it's eleven o'clock.
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 3: I haven't even really, I haven't even sain yet, like
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So I think that it's
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 3: just been learning that you gotta do it for you
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 3: and people will see that, Hey, this is their wave,
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 3: and I'm just glad that they're letting us like witness
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 3: what's being.
• 1:08:27
  Speaker 1: Put out versus I gotta go viral. I gotta do this.
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: People don't really like relate to that. They're just like, yo,
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: we just want to We like the fact that he's
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 3: just doing it, and we just like to see what
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: he's doing, what he's presenting, and even in the audition room,
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: Brian Cranson had said this. You probably saw it too.
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 3: It was after he won all those awards for Breaking Bad.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: He was talking about the auditions and he said, he said,
• 1:08:49
