Oh, now I'm watching a commercial and the rock's in it for some movie. This
looks like a good movie.
You know, I saw, oh, Young Rock. I gotta watch that.
You know, I saw this fucking video of him and he was talking to these young
kids.
He's like going, you know, I love you guys. I'm proud of you guys.
But none of you motherfuckers is gonna outwork me.
None of you, you hear me? None of you.
Getting up at four o'clock in the morning every day before anybody else
and grounding my thought process is in the no one will outwork me.
No one. I love and I respect you guys.
Motherfuckers won't outwork me.
Like, and it just bothered me that no one in the crowd was like,
I'll fucking outwork you.
Nobody. They just sat there and took it.
None of you motherfuckers is gonna outwork me.
It was really amazing. It was like, it was a motivational speech.
And then he started giving them shit all at the same time.
But how are you gonna argue with the guy?
The guy's like fucking well into his 40s and he's absolutely shredded.
And you're sitting there in your 20s.
You already got a fucking potato skins pooch hanging over your fucking junk.
You're like, well, you know, maybe he's right.
Thanks.
I want to do that.
I want to be that motivational speaker that fucking goes around and inspires
people.
You know, it's like you do the dual thing.
You inspire people while also subtly saying they're never going to be as good
as you.
I'm going to do that.
I'm going to teach a stand-up comedy class and do that.
Let me tell you something.
I love you guys.
You guys are all funny.
And you all have a bright future ahead of you.
But let me tell you something right now.
None of you motherfuckers is going to lean on a mic stand the way I do.
You hear me?
None of you.
Just be fucking staring at him as I'm leaning on the mic stand.
You will always open for me.
You understand me?
Just fucking around.
I love The Rock.
Not only do I love The Rock, I watch everything that he's in.
Okay?
And I'm old school.
I can't say totally old school.
If I was a really old school Rock fan, I would have watched him when he was
with the Hurricanes.
But I've been watching him since when he was wrestling.
And I would still say, I mean, if anybody ever said, this is like sacrilegious.
He's the only guy I ever saw that could fuck with Ric Flair on the mic.
And just as a comedian, what I loved was he didn't rest on his catchphrases.
He was always adding new stuff to what he was doing.
There hasn't been a guy like that before or since how fucking amazing that guy
is.
I think.
And I would say in the modern era, which I consider the late 90s because I'm an
old guy.
The modern era.
I've yet to see somebody after him.
All you young people.
If there's somebody out there that you think is as good as The Rock, I want to
see that guy.
Because that fucking guy, you know.
I remember at the beginning of the Super Bowl this year when he was like,
Finally, the Super Bowl has come back to Los Angeles.
This female comedian I know texted me.
And she goes, did we really need that at the beginning of the game?
And I was like, absolutely.
We fucking absolutely did.
It's one of my favorite intros to a fucking Super Bowl ever.
What were we supposed to have?
You know, one of those fucking goddamn whining rock bands now that sing about
their emotions.
You know, I blame the whole Seattle rock scene on emo music on the Seattle
scene.
They just fucking, they came in and they just fucking changed it.
Whining about their fucking days.
They couldn't just block their feelings the way the hair metal bands did, you
know.
