yeah it's uh really
excited about it it's out on youtube and uh it was it was great man i toured
with it for two and a half
years and you know how it is you don't want the content to just to go away i'm
super proud of it
yeah so i put it out there it's great was it um when you guys take trouble come
here come come on
when you guys taped it how many tapings did you do i did two yeah two in one
night i did the
paramount in huntington uh in long island and it was uh it was fun man like it
was the first one
you know you get a little nervous like it's all and i wasn't used the jib
almost knocked me out
like four times because i'm very physical on stage running around you know so i
ran to like the side
and the jib was like right there i almost got like knocked out but uh it was
good it was really cool
yeah and the jib is like the camera that's the camera that's on the arm yeah on
the arm yeah oh you
forget right that's for everybody at home yeah just because some people don't
know you know
some people don't know what's going on um yeah there you go right there that's
it
that's it yeah um did some of the other uh jokers come out uh yeah they came to
uh the taping um sal
came to the late taping i think and then the next i was working that week and
then q came out and
stuff but yeah it's good they come and see me we i see them when they're on the
road it's yeah it's
fun we try to give each other the support you know how it is have you gone to
one of their shows
like because because you do you still do the touring show with them or no right
no so i did they just
wrapped up their last tour and i came out on stage there and then when they did
radio city i popped
out uh that was really fun that when i came to radio city was so cool it was
really great the place
exploded wow it was really nice yeah yeah um have you missed that aspect
because they just came out
with their last their the 11th season right of their show yeah of jokers yeah
they're doing that now uh
they just wrapped shooting that one i think they got another one but uh yeah i
mean you know you're
missing you're missing with your friends the hardest part for me is like it's
appointment friendship now
right like you got to think about like you used to see each other all the time
oh and now it's like
you know like i feel like i you know i haven't seen you in front right and when
you see them it's
like they're working together or doing something you're trying to find a time
together so that gets a
little tricky yeah you know so but everybody always asks you still friends i
always tell people
i know i hate those guys like i'll just say stuff to mess with people people
like do you like them
i'm like no we don't talk anymore i was saying for a while that salad slept
with my wife that's why i left
it was so fun he's like dude you gotta stop saying that someone's gonna believe
you yeah
but uh yeah it's uh it's good we're still we're still boys yeah just trying to
see each other gets
a little tricky yeah i think that just gets trickier as you get older too like
just being an adult it's
like everything gets like more appointment that's why i missed like i i it's
like you never know when
you're in like high school and college and stuff like that that those are gonna
be like the greatest
times because everybody is just there yeah yeah everybody's you're gonna bump
the bump into factor
of a college campus right you might just bump into somebody on the way to the
calf or something yeah
that's totally different because you're all enclosed like a community it's like
a cult almost like you're
living on this you know the stockade thing yeah dude that's one thing it's like
but you don't realize
that when you're there like i remember whenever i was like graduating high
school whatever i was like
thank god i'm graduating but then you don't realize that like 10 years later
you'd do anything to go
back and have one big full day of high school yeah for sure you but there was
some people you were
looking forward to getting rid of too that was the bad part right that's the
other side of it yeah
like i cannot wait till i don't have to see this person again like the rotc
guys are were really at
our school were very they kind of acted like they were like a gang sort of or
whatever you know like
those guys with the wooden guns you'd see them after school or whatever yeah
and they wouldn't even have
like the part of the gun that like had the bulletin or something they would
just have like it's like a
glorified stick yeah dude yeah it was the right shape of a stick yeah yeah and
they would be
running through the halls like yeah like yelling different quadrants at each
other and doing this
stuff hand signaling you're like guys i'm getting to algebra get out of my way
yeah yeah i didn't uh we
didn't have rtc at our school but we definitely had um different cliques
because i went to an all-boy
catholic high school so all-boy school definitely had like a different type of
like click yeah setup
kind of thing where you had your jocks and your mathletes which i was a proud
leader of were you
yeah yeah math guy yeah so i was like geeky but i was a bowler we talked about
this just quickly
um i was on the bowling team and stuff so it was like a different thing but
then humor like once once
people found you were funny in high school and you're with all dudes i think it's
a different thing i think
it's like oh you know and then people like want to be around you and having fun
so once my humor started
coming out it was a different animal that was so much fun yeah dude being funny
and high that was
like the yeah i think that's what it was too because you always had an audience
around you always had
like yeah everybody was right there so you could make so many jokes and
references and like you'd see
each other in the hallway in between classes and that was the weirdest thing
because you had like
one second where you were passing your buddy in the hallway and you got to just
you got a drive by yeah
yeah yeah dude i did i was known for pratfalling in high in high school so i
used to pratfall into my
spanish class every day and mrs lonzo my teacher always thought it was this guy
mike irving that was
tripping me and she would always give him detention on and he's like dude you
have to stop stop it wasn't
me and i was like oh he tripped me you know like that so when i got my diploma
my mom knew that i was
big and my mom was always like you know you had to be respectful so i'm getting
my diploma
and everybody's like trip trip trip like they all want me to fall on stage and
my mother like threatened
my life she's like if you trip on stage you're done you're done i can't make my
mom mad so i don't get
it then i surprisingly get an award i got an award they're like they were
giving out these awards and
one of them was you know some of the and i look at my father and he goes and i
went up and i went
when i went to get the award on stage i bit it and i like fell off the stage a
place went absolutely
nuts it was so funny i was like that's the reason why i won that award so i
could have my moment yeah
that's class yeah yeah i love that that was so much fun man is yeah you think
about just
do you have friends from high school anymore yeah yeah yeah that you keep in
touch with yep i still got
actually a pretty decent amount i've always done a good job of like trying to
call and connect every
now and then just see what's up you know with folks but or from definitely from
high school and uh yeah
so i keep in contact pretty decently with some of them who's your oldest friend
my buddy some do you
have somebody like from my buddy scott from where we was like in second grade
or whatever oh wow just
went to his weddi
