you're so funny uh and do you feel like like your funny comes from where like
because you
weren't a stand-up to start with no no um so how do yeah let's do your origin
story damn it
yeah where do you want to start clark kent start in the damn mail room
so you know i don't know where the funny comes from i think i had such a um i
guess a shitty
childhood that i kind of had to you know i was the poor kid in school i was the
large kid in school
you know so i had to have something yeah so i think that just like came out of
me probably early
junior high were you funny then yeah i think so oh i wish we had those videos
yeah yeah i know i was
thinking about that i was like man i wish we had i wish i could vlog back then
oh my god to see that
shit but um so funny where were you funny at like was there like an environment
that you were kind
of really shined in you know was it a particular place or with a certain group
i know i've always
remember this and this may be cheesy as hell but i remember the first time i
made a room laugh and i
was in seventh grade um basketball practice and we after practice symbol
basketball yeah oh yeah wow yeah
and uh um went back to the uh locker room everybody's getting ready for class
or whatever i don't even
know what was said i have no clue but i had been to this school about a month
so i didn't really know
you know and um i don't know what i said but the whole fucking locker room was
piss in their pants
and somebody goes she's funny and that always just stuck with me i'm like oh
you know kind of so
that was like the first time i remember like you know wow yeah hmm yeah there's
something mad when
you're saying that it makes me it takes me back to those times yeah but like
there's something magical
when you don't feel like you have something that people that people see you
know and then when they
say that you're funny you're like oh yeah oh yeah it's almost like thank god
there's some
i have some way yeah for people to see me you know do you ever say something do
you ever say something
and then somebody dies laughing and you didn't think it was funny but they
thought it was the funniest
thing they've ever heard in their life that happens to me all the time i'm like
i was i am not that
funny and they're like dying well i think you start to become well some people
start to become kind of
there's times where i know i'm doing something funny and people don't know it
yet
that's always kind of fun when like and it's not it's not that i'm doing it on
purpose it's
just i know my brain starts to see a pattern of like oh this is where they're
at and this is where
my brain is over here right now and so in a second this is all you know this
corner is going to turn
or something yeah um sometimes though people like stuff like i'm one i watch
when i watch your videos
i notice a lot there's a little things that i like like when your cousin jim
when that little
fellow just turns his head at a certain angle and i just see the cut of that
boy's just damn
where his neck just runs right into his damn forehead you know i just i found
that guy on instagram
god flew him out to do it i said you got to come do a video with me i love that
just the look and then i
love him and so i think there's one thing that that really for me about you is
that you're the people
you find funny i find so funny that it's like oh wow i can trust her on
different levels not only to
entertain me but also like uh she sees like something that that a lot of people
maybe wouldn't see yeah
you know i mean some people see this fellow little gym and they might even you
know somebody probably
damn molested you know you get a couple of them you know we've had a few of
those football players
yeah yeah yeah for sure and they'll play damn fullback in a haunted house with
this dude you know
but um but yeah i think that's one that that's one of the things i notice as i
see more your stuff
that makes me laugh more i think is like trusting that you're gonna lead me
also to something funny
you know oh thank you and just the cuteness of it like the damn aunt and just
the there's a whole
storyline to it and it's all made up on the spot man and i just roll with it i
try to remember the
storyline for future it's just it's just all crazy it's so funny yeah it's just
such a good you do
you do such a great job i think of just bringing joy especially during like the
coronavirus time i feel
like i've had such a tough time during all this of trying to like figure out
what's funny or be like
just be in the funny you know um do you feel like it's been tougher during this
time or you feel like
opposite opposite for me i feel like my my well my shit's been thriving since
you know um my creative's
been thriving my just everything for some reason just the total opposite for me
yeah i was supposed
to go on tour oh you were gonna and you i don't know if you remember but like
two or three years ago
we did um josh wolf josh wolf show and do you remember me telling you i was
like man i don't know
i don't know if i wanted to stand up i'm kind of scared and you were like why
and i was like i don't
know and you're like just do it and i literally was like i left i was like yeah
he's right and so
i've literally started to stand up because of that oh wow yeah isn't that crazy
yeah you were like huh
no just do it and i was like he's right well i think some people it's like you
want you just want
to listen to the person you you want to be a part of their world you know they're
bringing the joy you
know sometimes if people are selling jokes sometimes people are selling joy not
really
selling it but you know i just feel like people want to be in your world yeah
you know and once
you create like a world people want to be in it yeah so that's great then so
you were planning on tour
that's the thing i was going to ask you so so with starting out you started out
where at like just
being funny where'd you grow up at uh thackerville oklahoma okay it's about a
45 minutes north of
dallas it's right on the oklahoma texas border okay i graduated high school
with 12 people oh
damn yeah 12 people we did not have a football team we did not have band we did
not have art like
nothing did y'all have like a like a youth group or something a religious oh
yeah we had this thing
called the upper room and my best friend's family ran it damn yeah and that was
that was all there was
to do play play softball and go to the upper room and they just had like pool
tables and and christian rock
and you know you know i'm talking about yeah yeah dude and that was it that was
that was all i did
for that was fun that was a social life oh yeah and is thackerville a big place
or no oh no we've got
um oh when i was there we didn't even have a stoplight now there's a stoplight
because we have the
world's largest casino oh yeah so it's random we have nothing but dirt roads uh
one convenience store
that's it and then the world's largest casino yeah well that's enough really i
mean it's that's
the thing you know that's all you need you would yeah you would think that's
all you need people want
more yeah yeah people and some people need more man yeah um that's true so dackerville
so you
graduated from there and then you went because i was kind of it was kind of
surprising when i saw you in
san diego because i'm like this doesn't seem to fit everything but everything
works yeah but it was
surprising to me so no well to me too so i graduated college married greg okay
we moved to dallas so we
were there for like three years um he's looking for he was looking for a new
job oh god i was working at
whole foods at the time dead beat dude i was working at whole foods at the time
in the bakery
come home from work and he's like oh i've got a job interview i'm like that's
great we're at and he
was like it's this job in san diego and i was literally like i thought he was
with me i'm like
why did you apply for a job in san diego yeah and he's like i didn't a recruiter
reached out and
i'm like we're not moving to san diego that's called the military greg for real
he's like yeah i'm gonna
it's a it's a unique group you know that they've been in business for a couple
hundred years they've
reached out to me yeah um there's battleship opportunities so we moved to san
diego it's
supposed to be temporary wow and once i got out once we got out here i was like
i don't want to live
anywhere else really yeah yeah and then that's when started to pop for me
because that's a big move
i mean moving from a place where you have the comfort and you guys especially
going from like
in the dallas that's a big move to go out west oh it was huge and and then you
get the shock of
everything being more expensive out here which is so true i think i think our
one-bedroom apartment
was like 700 a month we come out here and it's like twenty two hundred dollars
for you know i mean we were
like um yeah it was a big shock we're used to it now um when we when we moved
to san diego i had just
started the social media stuff so i didn't really have a lot of followers and

been we've been in san diego seven years almost eight maybe yeah yeah it's
