But also, Matt, serious note.
I'm gonna put on my serious hat, okay?
It's about longevity, too, you know?
- Of course.
- And there was a lot of opportunities I didn't get.
And also, I admit, I was never,
like, the kind of what you got, you know what I mean?
I never got, what?
- What do you mean?
- Well, you were never, yeah.
- Dude, dude.
- You're being so rude right now.
It makes me so mad.
- You were never hot.
- That's not even what I'm talking about right now, dude.
- You were never hot.
- That's what I'm saying.
- No, you didn't get a phone call.
- Oh, dude, you make me so,
you haven't made me this mad since the early days, dude.
- Good, dude.
- Yeah, no, you, dude.
- Shut up.
- I'm not all you.
- Thank you, Porky.
- God damn.
- God damn.
- This is so hot.
- Anyway.
- Yeah, you never got these opportunities.
- But you got, that's what I'm saying.
- But you had amazing opportunities.
- I've done a lot of great things in my career.
- You have.
- But what I'm saying is that,
just know that you're always gonna work.
I think the thing in our minds is like,
if I don't do it now, it's gonna disappear.
It's not. - Of course.
- You know, it comes about in different forms.
You might do.
- See, see.
- Oh, you might do bigger things, right?
Or you might, you know what I mean?
There'll be a couple of slim years,
but trust me, you will have,
you'll come back and then you'll look back.
And that's what life is.
Like this, like it.
- Are you okay?
- Fuck, dude.
- It's like this, you know?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Okay, the roller coaster.
- Back and forth, back and forth, like this.
- The roll.
- This feels racist even years.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So that's what, you know.
- That's the inside of your grandfather clock.
Cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha-cha.
- I need to drink some water, hold on.
- You need to, yeah,
you need to get your sleep schedule right,
'cause it's healthy for you, dude,
to get back to square one. - I know, I underestimated it.
- Then you get healthy physically and mentally,
'cause I think the mental thing is what,
you're in the gym all the time,
but that's not helping this thing.
- No, of course.
- Just 'cause you're staying in shape,
it's not gonna help your brain.
- And a lot of people don't understand,
it's like, okay, you get to this point,
what is there to be anxious about?
Like, you made it, right?
But it's like, okay, well, how do you keep making it?
- Right.
- It's easy to have like a hot couple of years,
but then you go, okay,
the anxieties of like, okay,
am I ever gonna have money to like support a family
or anything like that?
That's cool, that's taken care of.
But it's like, how hard this moment is right now,
I go, fuck, what's the next 60 years?
- Well, but who cares?
I would say this.
I'd say the one thing I would say is,
if you're not enjoying it,
no matter what you acquire,
will never be worth it.
- That was the hardest part.
- No matter what you,
no matter what come,
if it's not fun anymore,
and it's just work for the prospective future
of the hope that I'll be settled at some point,
you're never gonna, you're gonna lose your mind,
and you'll get there and you'll be miserable as fuck.
You'll have whatever you need and you'll go, fuck,
this sucks, I don't even like this.
- Yeah, there would definitely be times in doing,
you know, 10 to 14 shows a week that I'm like,
there was nothing that upset me more
than whenever I would go, I don't feel like performing.
It's like, do you have a theater
full of fucking people right now?
- Yeah.
- You would have killed to just have one of these shows
like this ever in your lifetime.
And you didn't feel like doing it
'cause it felt like Groundhog Day over and over again.
So the best part was like having my friends around
to remind me of that and make the entire experience
as fun as humanly possible.
- How many people do you take on the road?
- There's my videographer, my photographer, two openers.
- Two people, same two guys?
- Yeah, host and a feature.
I keep the same host and then my feature's just kind of in and out.
- Rotate? - Yeah.
Yeah, it depends.
I just had Eric Griffin was with me in Atlantic City.
- Hosting?
- No, featuring.
- Let's move him down to host.
- Happily.
- Yeah, let's move him to host.
- Don't you think he loves you so much?
- He loves you so much.
- Yeah, he talked about you last night.
I ran into him last night.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, he was talking about you and Bobby.
- So you know who Guy Torrey is?
- Yeah.
- So Guy Torrey once told me, he goes,
you know why I'm happy?
I go, why in my career?
And he goes, I don't have like the amount of money
that some of these other guys have,
but every year there's certain milestones
and markers that I look for.
And it's, am I doing something different
than I did last year?
- Mm.
- Right?
Because the whole thing about this business
is about surprise and living life experiences.
And Matt, you know, maybe you'll spend a year
maybe doing a movie.
You have some movies coming out, right, or no?
You already shot some?
- No, we've got like six in development for next year.
- That's what I'm saying.
Once those start, then you're gonna be in a town
for a month and a half doing that
and meeting different actors and doing that creatively.
You're gonna do different things, right?
So just as long as every year you're mixing it up
and not just constantly touring,
'cause then that would be, that's like a sad life.
- Yeah, of course.
- You'll burn out.
- You'll just burn out.
- Absolutely.
- And we don't want you to burn out.
- I think that was a pretty good advice.
- That was really good advice.
- That was really good advice, thank you.
- All right, look, I need to ask this
because I know it's not favorable conversation,
but I am curious, you have become very successful
since we've seen you on this rise.
Have you spoiled yourself?
Have you done something where you're like,
I bought a thing and I did a thing.
- Yeah.
- And I never could do it before.
- I bought my mom a house, was the first thing I did.
- Great.
- Great, class act.
- Class act.
- Class act.
- I just bought my first house.
- You bought her a house first?
- Yeah.
- You're a class act.
- What city did you buy it at?
- Mine or hers?
- Hers.
- Hers, she's in Georgia, outside of Atlanta.
- Book a flight.
- Okay, good to know.
- Just give us the address.
- Yeah, yeah, no.
And then you bought one here in LA?
- No, I don't live here anymore.
I live in Rhode Island.
- Wow.
- Why?
- This city's dead, dude.
- There it is.
- This city's so, there's no energy.
Drive down Sunset Boulevard.
- You heard it here first.
- On a weekend night, there's no traffic.
- Why'd you pick Rhode Island?
- It wasn't even the top 10 places I looked, trust me.
I just, there was three things on my checklist.
I wanted land,
I wanted to like get what I was actually fucking paying for.
And I found this massive place
for probably the same prices,
a two bedroom with no yard.
- Yeah, two bedroom, one bath.
- Yeah. - Out here.
- Yeah.
Wanted to get what I was paying for in land.
Needed to have some kind of a comedy scene.
And Providence has a comedy connection out there.
It's a great club.
- Sure.
- Boston's 45 minutes away.
- Right.
- Amazing comedy scene.
And also convenient for travel.
Well, I guess that was a third.
And Rhode Island, Providence is like my Burbank airport,
and Boston's my LAX.
So it really stays by the same.
I'm just, but dude, it's so beautiful.
I've never been a morning person,
as we just discussed my sleeping problems.
- Yeah.
- Every single day I wake up there,
the seven days I've been there in the past four months,
I've owned it.
- Yeah. You don't even live there.
I wake up so happy.
It is so fucking beautiful.
- That's wonderful, dude.
- Yeah. I'm so happy I did that.
- So nothing here, no apartment here,
no connection to Los Angeles anymore.
- No, I couldn't do it.
My business managers explained that,
I looked into even just getting a condo here or something.
If I own any kind of property here,
because I've lived here for 11 years,
they'll say that this is still my permanent residence.
- Correct, yeah.
- And that that's my vacation home somewhere.
- Right.
- Like California, Texas.
And I was like, nah, fuck that.
- Wow, wow, wow, wow.
- Yeah.
- Rhode Island.
- Did you ever visited before?
- Nope.
- Wow.
- No, I just went, I was performing at Mohegan Sun.
Five shows out there or something light like that.
- She always dropped that?
- It's about an hour away.
- You see what he just did?
- I don't like it.
- They made us play the parking lot of Mohegan Sun.
We did Mohegan Sunset.
We didn't even get the fucking full sun.
- Yeah.
- Mohegan Moon.
- Oh yeah.
- Fuck, dude.
- It was an hour away, and I found it on Zillow,
and I was like, oh, I'll peep this real quick.
We went and checked it out, and I was like,
oh, this is like one show at Mohegan Sun.
Awesome, so.
- Wow.
- Good for you.
- It was awesome, dude.
- Wow.
- Buying your mom a house first was a class act.
That's a cool thing to do.
- When you told her, how did you tell her?
- I told her, I called her, I was like, hey.
I called her like, it was maybe like a week
after the tour sold out, and it was like,
obviously the first time I knew
I was gonna have any money at all.
I was like, hey, in your fucking face.
You know, I told you I was silly, bitch.
No, obviously, no, I called her very light hearted.
I was like, hey, things worked out finally.
Now that I have some money, I wanna take care of you.
You know, you still have to work,
but your bills are taken care of.
- Right.
- Wow.
- I bought her a car the year before
when things were just kind of starting to take off
a little bit.
- Oh, wait, let's guess the car.
Can you guess the car?
- Go ahead.
- Hers?
- Is that a Tesla?
- No.
- No, in Georgia?
- She would have no idea what to do with a Tesla.
- Okay.
- He bought her an F-350.
- She would think it's possessed.
- A lifted truck, an F-350 lifted truck
with hydraulic jacked up.
- Truck nuts.
- Yeah, truck nuts dangling.
- Smokestack.
- Yeah.
Come on, Matt, let's go, dude.
What'd you buy her?
- She wanted a Hyundai, dude.
- Really?
- Yeah, no expensive taste.
- Humble pie, that's awesome.
She thought it was a nice car.
- They are really good Korean cars.
Yeah, very good.
- Is Hyundai Korean?
- It's got die lifting and lifts and expression.
- Beepa beepa.
- Yep.
- Yeah, she didn't ask for anything crazy.
- Exactly.
- Go to that, go to the house.
She was excited about it.
You know, best son ever.
- Oh, pride?
- Yeah, it was the first time I had heard that.
- Do you have a sister or a brother?
- Yeah, I have four sisters.
- Are they biolog or half-e?
- No, three half-sisters, one...
Three stepsisters, one half-sister.
- One half-sister.
- Well, we don't know who's biological is this guy's.
- I know, right?
None of them might be biological.
- Are you closest with the half-sister or no?
- More than the stepsisters, yes.
- Yeah, for sure, for sure.
- Yeah, I would say so.
- Is one of them an evil stepsister?
- An evil stepsister?
- Yeah, like the fairy tales?
- None more than the others, I suppose.
- If your stepsister went, "Hey, man, I'm down on my luck."
- I've been using fentanyl.
Go ahead.
- Yeah, yeah, doing fentanyl.
I'm not shooting it up anymore, you know what I mean?
I drop form in my eyeballs.
I just drip them in my eyeballs.
Anyway, I need about 20 grand, 'cause I'm dying.
- I would say Bobby Lee is single.
And he has a lot of llamas.
Hit 'em up.
- You would do that?
- I would do that for you.
I would.
- I don't want it.
- I would do that for you.
- I don't want your sister.
Y'all fucking drop a sister.
- You don't want all three of 'em?
- No.
Are they hot?
- Okay.
- No.
- Turn right around.
