tell me the story about the brewery how did you end up there in the 90s there
was a cattle call
for a sitcom do you remember what it was called no cattle call but i remember
going there and
waiting in line for about seven hours just chilling outside it was like one
line gross
right sounds like last time and i remember going in there and being thrown like
on a chair
saying one thing i forgot what it was and they're like go go go and i remember
walking out of that
building going oh i'm never gonna make it you thought that was how it always
that's how it all
worked yeah like this just one in a million you know me waiting in line for
that long it's like
the laugh factory line at the open mic line yeah yeah it's around the corner
people will wait there
from 10 a.m i think it's open at noon or whatever noon until the show oh yeah
and they might not get
on most don't yeah they're just getting their name into the bucket i mean how
crazy is that
that's awesome did you ever do that of course i did what do you mean i waited
in every line
i waited the fact i never waited a laugh i waited at the store you did the
improv didn't have a line
they didn't have that thing they didn't have that thing i waited at the factory
multiple times yeah
and when you're waiting in kind of a line that like that long and you're like
and you don't even get
on you're like oh this is almost impossible me and my buddy kenner shaw drove
to san francisco for
last comic standing to sleep outside of cobs on the street to audition god do
you know how far this
is now i sold out six shows like three months in advance at cobs and that's how
far i've come and
thank you that means a lot that actually feels a lot in my heart i slept on
that street outside
of cobs on fucking four and i'm not kidding we drove to san francisco i slept
outside on the
concrete in a fucking sleeping bag only to almost not get to audition go inside
tell a half a joke and
they were like no thank you oof oof had to get right back in our car and drive
down back from san francisco
i remember i remember i slept outside of the improv for last comic last comic
standing too i slept
outside of fred siegel on melrose no yeah i slept on mel oh my god and i
remember there was a young
girl there was a comic out there you know who she is i think tracy mcdonald do
you know who that is i
know her yeah tracy was in line with us and tracy i'll never forget there was a
moment where tracy
says canadian comic yeah tracy said what if this was so creepy it had been
three or four in the
morning she was in the like the camp next with a nice girl yeah she's great
yeah tracy said hey
what if one day there's a four in the morning thought what if one day we're not
funny anymore
and i was like what do you mean and she's like what if we just stop being funny
or thinking of
funny stuff i was like that's impossible what do you mean like it's in your
soul you you you like
humor she's like no no no because sometimes i feel like i might lose it and it'll
never come back and
i was like shut up i went to lay down and my brain was like what if what if we
can never write a funny
joke ever again what if i never think of anything funny again what if i never
say anything what if i
don't know what funny is anymore it spun me out for like six hours yeah so
thank you tracy
mcdonald that actually no but she was she but she was right though she had this
moment of clarity of
like man what are we doing we're sleeping on melrose yeah is this worth it do
we want to do this
it was it was worth it it was fun i tried here's i think the difference right
is is that i i honestly
i i think that um a lot of people could make it you know i mean i i you know i
don't care what where
you come from you know you don't even have to be like naturally funny i just
think that people can
make it but uh we we can hit the ball when necessary when the time yeah the
time is right
i just remember different moments in my life it's like i remember thinking to
myself i have to hit
this ball yeah you don't have a choice i don't because so and so is in the
audience and i have
to fucking hit a home run here and you do and yeah i was so i'm gonna tell you
i can't say his name
but i remember there was a there was a tv show that was that did stand up and i
had already done a
a couple times so they the third year they're like can you do it again and i go
you know what i'll do
it if you brought my friend on it you got to tell me the tv show like a kid craig
kilbourne or something
no i can't i can't tell you because i don't want my friend yeah my friend will
cry if i say the story
okay i need to he's already crying we'll blank it out it was called funny kay
loco okay loco yeah it's
called kay loco yeah i remember kay loco you know on telemundo yeah whatever
yeah but um and they go well
who's your friend i don't care you know i mean you're not gonna watch him he's
gonna do it you're
like you're giving me a spot and he has to get a spot one of my best friends is
gets a spot that's
really nice right and he used to do well on stage regular at the store okay so
i remember we're at the
taping now this is so crazy and i'm standing i'm sitting next to joey diaz hey
right and so my
friend's going up right and so uh and he's super nervous which is
understandable sure it's tv right
so i'm in the green room watching the monitor i'm like oh yeah there's finally
right they bring him
up and he comes up and he and he goes nothing comes out no yeah and then he
does this this is
where i was like uh-oh he looks on the ground he goes and he starts mumbling no
yeah yeah nobody he
literally starts mumbling doing something oh this is tv there's cameras on
right and then i remember um
he's like maybe a minute or two in he starts getting the nerve to tell a joke
but at this
point he lost the room it's gone it's gone they were ready to really bombing oh
right and i remember
i had or i had already gone up oh you already did great yeah you're good right
i killed right
i left him there you piece of okay not only did i leave him there well i do i
was so embarrassed
would you get in the car and just go home yeah i go fuck this guy no you
asshole i got in the car so
here's the two things no wonder why people from your past have just yeah yeah i
was gonna say
that's one of these guys you never spoke to yeah for somebody when you go to
bat for somebody he had
him he had an off day right his first tv but i'm gonna give him a compliment
but this is okay so i
leave so then joey diaz drove him home but here's the sad part joey diaz on
like 500 000
milligrams like i'll drive you a car yeah flip this car so you do five you know
they take five or
six shows in one night right so at the end of each show the the booker gives
you a money a check
he waited at the end he never got a check so not only didn't i get do well he
didn't get
he got edited on the show obviously oh my god i got driven home right well give
him the money
that's the triple crown right right but here's here's though here's how he wins
i i when we got i i you know i still was friends with him bitcoin he bought a
bunch of bitcoin
92. a year later i was watching comedy central just randomly and he had done
premium blend
what that was huge right huge and he destroyed oh so he's fine he destroyed is
he still working today
yeah he destroyed but i just remember like him you know some people can't hit
the ball the first time
is my point but he got redemption which is good he did he was he he always had
it he had the looks he
always he had the skill it's just you know when you and you know the very first
tv spot you do
as a stand-up is petrifying that's the scariest thing in the world it's
probably one of the scariest
things in the world like i did i remember when i did leno i was i'd never been
more scared but i
just remember walking out and looking at the thing and going you have to kill
you have to you have to
kill because jay's right there mm-hmm yeah you got a little chinese guy that's
me on leno is that your
first time yeah wow i remember how nervous i was to do conan it was probably i
was there
so nervous i've ever been man you were i was chase just because i loved conan
so much and it was a big
deal for me when they you know and you know what's so funny is i submitted a
year before and uh the
booker who obviously not there is gone now who's become a friend was like i don't
like the spot i
don't like the set and i was like and then called and was like i saw you do a
spot
do that five i was like oh re really i can't do that five do that don't the
other one don't submit
do this just take out the two cusp parts that have sweat yeah that was it but
then when i got there
we were i was so nervous it's a good set it's just hard it's such a hard it's
such a hard thing
i'll never forget that people just get we were dying laughing on the way to
that people get so judgy
about it but you're like it's you feel so it's the stress of that is so weird
because it's live
like i can see it kind of in your eyes i know you yeah there's something in
your eyes i was nervous
yeah yeah so nervous you're fine you can see all the stuff but there's a focus
in your eyes yeah
yeah right i can tell and my that sweater was awful it's like what a terrible
choice
you know by the way when i remember buying that sweater scrounging the money
together to buy that
sweater and it was out of my price range it was probably like 125 sweater yeah
you know what i
mean like i remember it was like a hundred dollar sweater and i was like this
is insane that i'm
buying this sweater and i thought when i put it on you look great and less than
a month later i was
like you look ridiculous yeah that is a stupid it's so no matter what you wear
on tv what was
i wearing on my tonight you look like a idiot you always look dumb on these tapings
