[6] I can't believe that gym out there.
[7] It's nice, right?
[8] With a Porsche park next to it.
[9] You've got to be able to work out where you work.
[10] If you do that, you get more in.
[11] Next to your Porsche.
[12] Too bad things aren't working out well for you, Joe.
[13] I don't see what you're doing.

[25] He used to love my radio show on Sirius.
[26] Yeah, they asked him, they asked me to get him on, and I was like, eh, I think I'm going to duck that one.
[27] Well, but he's fucking eccentric and crazy.
[28] He's a loon.
[29] Yeah, and so is Randy, and they've known each other forever.
[30] Are they friends?

[38] It was him and a bunch of other guys, and it was all political.
[39] It was like five guys or three, a few guys.
[40] I forget how many guys.
[41] I think Cremens was on it.
[42] Oh, sure.
[43] It was Credico.
[44] Yeah.

[46] He's fucking crazy.
[47] But he sent me a picture of him 2016 in front of the embassy in London where what's his name was held up?
[48] Assange.
[49] Really?
[50] Yes.
[51] And I'm like, what the fuck is going on?
[52] What's he doing out there?
[53] And then all that shit came out about WikiLeaks and stuff.
[54] So they thought he might have been the intermediary.
[55] Yeah, so he's gone in front of Roger Stone.
[56] He's gone in front of Mueller a couple times.
[57] And so...
[58] There it is right here.
[59] Who is Randy Cricko?
[60] Ryderstone threatened to take away.
[61] A societist's dog.
[62] If he cooperated with Russia, investigate.
[63] What?
[64] He threatened to take away his dog?
[65] Oh, fucking, you're going to read the text that Roger Stone.
[66] They're public, I think, would send to Randy.
[67] I'm going to take your dog.
[68] Oh, yeah.
[69] He goes, let's get it on.
[70] Be prepared to die.
[71] I'm going to take your fucking.
[72] That's why I love this guy.
[73] This guy had a Nixon tattoo when he was 18 on his back.
[74] Roger Stone did?
[75] Yes.
[76] He marched in the gay parade in New York.
[77] I fucking love.
[78] love him.
[79] He's nuts.
[80] Why do he march in the gate parade New York?
[81] Is he pro -gay rights?
[82] Well, he's pro just, yeah, you know.
[83] So he's just all over the place.
[84] He's all over the place.
[85] But he's a right, I mean, he had a Nixon tattoo.
[86] He's a fucking right wing.
[87] But all the right -wing people to get.
[88] Look at this.
[89] Look.
[90] That is so ridiculous.
[91] The fucking Nixon.
[92] That's a good tattoo, too.
[93] I know.
[94] And that guy's 60 -something years old.
[95] At least.
[96] And he loved my radio show on Serious.
[97] And he hosted Info Wars.
[98] About six months ago, he had me on as a guest, when I got punched in the face by that broad.
[99] Oh, that's right.
[100] I forgot about that.
[101] Yeah.
[102] So, yeah, they raided the FBI, raided his house, took him out today.
[103] And he got out on $250 ,000 bond.
[104] And he wanted Credico, you know, to stop contesting what Stone said in front of when he testified.
[105] So Stone said one thing.
[106] That's not how it went down.
[107] So they're fighting and shit.
[108] And then he's threatening them.
[109] And, but, yeah, Randy, so.
[110] So I text Randy today.
[111] I go, I'm doing Rogan.
[112] I mean, if you want to weigh in, and he's like, well, call me before the show, let me know.
[113] He goes, there's not too much I can say right now.
[114] But what's funny is I know both these guys.
[115] That is so weird.
[116] That's so weird.
[117] And he said, yeah, let me know.
[118] He goes, I can't say much because they just arrested the FPA.
[119] They're going to turn.
[120] They try to, I see what Mueller's doing.
[121] He's turning Roger Stone against Trump.
[122] Trump is the target.
[123] So he's going to threaten him with, you know, he's 60 -something years old.
[124] So he can spend the rest of his life.
[125] in prison or talk yeah you know well he's doing that with every he's a scary guy muller if he if you had a problem and that guy was coming after you like oh my god because he's going to do it slow like by the time this actually gets to trump he's going to be i don't think they do that slow they do they start so they want i think that's different than what you're thinking anyway i'm very confused by the time they get to trump he's already so nerve -racked you know what i'm saying because he like chips away at his borders like slowly but surely takes away all the people around him yeah he gets closer and you know you know you know he's concentrating on the family you know he's oh of course of course of course that's what he does and even does that with people like stone he'll go after your family and stuff you notice you never hear a word out of ivanka anymore no exactly yeah yeah guarantee you yeah guarantee you they scared the fuck out of her but if you want to know about mullah like you said and how fucking creepy he is he was the head of the FBI during the 80s of the Whitey Bulger shit went down.
[126] Whoa.
[127] Yeah, and he put four guys in, listen to this, Joe, and this, you can look this up.
[128] This is amazing.
[129] Four guys he put in prison, wrongly, it turns out, two of them died in prison.
[130] Whoa.
[131] Yeah, you can Google it.
[132] Because of Bulger?
[133] It had to do with that.
[134] Yes.
[135] They would do things, and the FBI would let them get away with it because they were providing information.
[136] That was the whole Bolger thing.
[137] That's exactly right.
[138] And two guys died in prison, wrongly.
[139] By the way, this guy's not a fucking good guy.
[140] I know he's a Marine and decorated Marine and shit.
[141] They make those sacrifices.
[142] They make those decisions where they're just going to help a person who's a criminal because that criminal's providing information that can allow them to get more criminals.
[143] Well, yeah.
[144] Whitey was providing all kinds of shit about the guineas and East Boston.
[145] That was a great movie, too, by the way.
[146] You know, I used to train a guy who was one of White's hit men.
[147] Dana White?
[148] No, no, no. Dana White got threatened.
[149] He had to move out of town.
[150] It was a bulger, wasn't it?
[151] Bulger related.
[152] Yes, it was Bulger related.
[153] When I was teaching Taekwondo, I had one of the guys that was in my class that was whacking people for Whitey Bulger.
[154] And he was asking me, if you want to kill somebody with your bare hands, where would you hit him?
[155] I was like, uh, the neck.
[156] It was like 18.
[157] I was like, oh, he goes, correct, Joe.
[158] He was like, good.
[159] Yeah, I like that.
[160] Who was it, Kevin?
[161] No, no, no. But, you know, Kevin, you know, he went away to this.
[162] Another tough kid.
[163] Yeah, all related, all of them together.
[164] You know, this guy was a different guy.
[165] This guy was he went away too But I mean he went away forever He was one of those guys Like they caught him with blood under his fingernail And he was working with Whitey Yeah yeah Well there's a lot of guys that were I mean it was a big organization When we were kids I mean everybody knew It was a big organization I mean it wasn't a fucking secret Oh no Oh I know How did Hannity's attempt to link Mueller To Whitey Bulger hold up This article in the Boston Globe says that's not true Whatever it's the FBI He wasn't there He wasn't there He wasn't there then Oh, he wasn't at the FBI.
[166] Yeah, this is he...
[167] Mueller served the U .S. Attorney's Office in Boston from 82 to 88 as chief of the criminal division, first assistant U .S. Attorney and acting U .S. Attorney for more than a year.
[168] During that time, Bulger ran a sprawling criminal enterprise and got away with murders because he was a longtime FBI informant who corrupted his handlers.
[169] The FBI...
[170] He corrupted his handlers.
[171] I love it.
[172] And the FBI in the New England organized crime strike force, a prosecutorial unit that worked independently in the U .S. Attorney's Office, reportedly.
[173] reported directly to the Justice Department, used Bulger to build cases against the mafia and give him a pass on his own crimes.
[174] The FBI's corrupt relationship with Bulger was exposed after he was indicted on federal racketeering charges in 1995 became a fugitive.
[175] He was captured 16 years later.
[176] Yeah, I would hear.
[177] Yeah, so, yeah, he was captured in Santa Monica.
[178] I know.
[179] So when did Mueller?
[180] It says, did Mueller know the four men have been wrongly convicted and looked the other way?
[181] There's nothing linking Mueller to that case.
[182] case, according to several attorneys for the men, voluminous court records, and a former federal judge who presided over their wrongful imprisonment trial.
[183] In 2007, the U .S. District Judge Nancy Gertner found the FBI deliberately withheld evidence that the four men were innocent.
[184] The bureau helped cover up the injustice for deck.
[185] Jesus Christ, I fucking hate reading shit like that.
[186] She ordered the government to pay the men and their families 101 .7 million.
[187] Okay, maybe worth it.
[188] How long did you guys go away for?
[189] Let's be honest.
[190] You were never going to make $100 million.
[191] That's chicken scratch to you.
[192] If they all got $100 million, if every one of them got $100 million, I mean, I'm in.
[193] I mean, how much time do you have to do?
[194] How many times do you get fucked where you're in jail?
[195] How bad is it?
[196] Per load.
[197] Fuck, man. So maybe it was just a rumor that he was a part of that.
[198] Well, like you said, though, that's the FBI.
[199] As soon as a story broke, I'm sure they called the paper and said, listen, get your facts straight.
[200] Well, how crazy is that the FBI covered up the information?
[201] and knew those guys were innocent.
[202] That is dark.
[203] Yeah.
[204] Who went to jail for that?
[205] Did the guys who covered it up go to jail?
[206] I'm not sure.
[207] Ugh.
[208] But two of them died.
[209] You can't.
[210] They died in jail?
[211] Two of them died in jail.
[212] Ugh.
[213] That I'm sure you can go.
[214] You know they caught him because his wife was yelling and shit all the time?
[215] Yeah, she was Coco.
[216] He had fucking cash on the walls and shit.
[217] Did he?
[218] I used to sell meat door to door before I started comedy.
[219] And I used to go to fucking went to him.
[220] hill not knowing where I was and I would I would wonder why people look at my I'd take out my shit and they go that slap that breaks on like 40 bucks a pound get the fuck on and then somebody explained to me you know what the hill is like white he bulges me what wow so you were selling meat and his neighbor oh yeah fucking same in east Boston I knocked the door a couple of guys in Revere that were like fucking connected my buddy I don't know who they were and shit later on well they probably knew people from meat packing they probably got it right off of course of course and I'm like I'm doing my little spiel there for a boiler, you know, a fucking boiler room operation.
[221] Oh, you break it down poor meal.
[222] It comes out there three bucks a meal.
[223] And they're doing the math in the head.
[224] You can tell they were like bookies, you know.
[225] They're like, that's like 40 bucks a pound.
[226] Get the fuck off my steps.
[227] Wasn't really that much.
[228] No, but it was ridiculous, you know.
[229] Yeah.
[230] And I was in Rhode Island banging doors.
[231] And I got the same response.
[232] And I looked down, I see in the streets.
[233] The lines on the streets are red, white, and green.
[234] I was in Federal Hill in Providence where the mafia started.
[235] Look at that article.
[236] Look at this.
[237] Wadi Boulders, Santa Monica Hideout, was full of money.
[238] It still brims with mystery.
[239] He was living in like a normal apartment.
[240] I know.
[241] So weird.
[242] He had $822 ,000 in cash and valuables.
[243] Wow.
[244] Jesus Christ.
[245] I like that movie.
[246] I thought Johnny Depp was great.
[247] Yeah, he was.
[248] He was great in it.
[249] Yeah.
[250] That's a creepy dude.
[251] Yeah, he was as creepy as they get.
[252] It's just amazing how much corruption was involved in that case.
[253] Yes.
[254] And that the federal government was a part of it, and they let that mind.
[255] monster, they let them thrive.
[256] Yeah.
[257] So it makes you wonder about the FBI today.
[258] Well, it should make you wonder about...
[259] It shows them what they're capable of.
[260] Yeah.
[261] Let's put it that way.
[262] Whenever you're doing that, whenever you're allowing someone to commit murder and deal drugs to get other people that are committing murder and dealing drugs, like, what?
[263] Yeah.
[264] Because they would just want to, they just, look, what happens with cops in, this is very unfortunate, but this is just what happens when you have a game.
[265] And the game is arrest people.
[266] The game is win.
[267] Right?
[268] You have a certain amount of collars you have to make.
[269] And if you can make more collars because you're in bed with a bad guy, especially if maybe you grew up in that neighborhood and it's always been kind of an accepted part of that neighborhood.
[270] That guy Conley grew up with what he...
[271] Yeah, exactly.
[272] It makes a sneaky little deal.
[273] Yeah?
[274] Well, Sam of the lawyers.
[275] It's all about...
[276] You have to have...
[277] It's like sports.
[278] You have to have a winning record.
[279] You're not going to succeed, so they play outside the rules.
[280] I mean, that's one of the reasons why cops and people have such a weird relationship, because they're always looking to arrest people.
[281] And your cops talk and you're like, ah, don't put me on your record.
[282] Come on.
[283] Yeah.
[284] And they just want, maybe I can get you for something.
[285] Yeah.
[286] I got to get somebody.
[287] No, I know.
[288] When they have quotas, like when you have quote, like what would the police force do if nobody broke crimes anymore?
[289] Did it make shit up?
[290] If they, what would they do?
[291] Like, legitimately.
[292] If they really do have quotas.
[293] It would never happen.
[294] But what if everybody got on mushrooms and the world, the world got clean?
[295] Yeah, yeah.
[296] The world got cleaned up I was wondering how long would take to get that Not much Not much time, a couple of years Couple years No, I mean in the conversation The mushrooms I got some right here If you want some Dude, I can't even handle Regular mushrooms Fucking chitaki make me crazy I don't know how you do that shit We had that discussion DMT A thick portobello Nice A glaze A demi glaze on it Yeah It just The whole I mean the Mewit thing It's very interesting It's very interesting because you're watching a professional like cast a web like nice and slow yeah nice and slow this is the full force of the FBI against you and if they'll do it against a Roger Stone like you said they'll do you know it's creepy well Jamie said they opened up the government today to distract from the fact that Roger Stone got arrested most likely most likely I think you're right I think that's a good assessment I guess I mean Trump's the final target so but yeah he's gonna he's going to threaten Stone with, you know, he's like 66.
[297] Yeah.
[298] Threatens him with 10 years, he's probably going to Yeah, he's kind of...
[299] It's enough to fucking make him sing.
[300] But he's such a...
[301] Sing a song.
[302] Like Dershowitz says, they don't just sing.
[303] They actually, how did Dershow did Dershitz put it?
[304] They actually, you know, come up with the lyrics they create.
[305] They don't just sing, you know.
[306] What do you think is going to happen to Trump, if you had a guess?
[307] As far as this investigation?
[308] Nothing.
[309] Really?
[310] Pass not a coffee.
[311] failure.
[312] Thank you.
[313] Yeah.
[314] Thanks, brother.
[315] Why do you think nothing's going to happen?
[316] Well, that's not true.
[317] I shouldn't say that only because I think Mulla's pretty fucking evil and we'll come up with something.
[318] Well, you know, what, impeachment?
[319] At the worst?
[320] But where's the high crimes and misdemeanors?
[321] What?
[322] Well, if there was obstruction of justice, if there was collusion, if there was any sort of, if they can prove that there was some sort of concerted effort to undermine democracy.
[323] Yeah, which I don't think they'll get to get them.
[324] Even with Roger Stone, they're not charging him with collusion or conspiracy.
[325] Just lying and covering up.
[326] They don't have them for collusion or conspiracy.
[327] They're lying covering up the interactions with Russians, right?
[328] Is that what it is?
[329] I guess that would be Mullet's angle, yeah.
[330] You know, Jamie was talking about something yesterday, and I started listening to this recent Sam Harris podcast, and it is fucking fascinating.
[331] How much Russian troll farms and all these fake accounts and what they're trying to do and one of the things they're trying to do is what Jamie was saying was that kid with the MAGA hat with a Native American beating the drum in front of them the image of that was posted by this website that turned out to be a Russian troll farm but it was in Brazil was a blogger in Brazil yeah when they'd CNN looked into it they just kind of asked Twitter what's going on with this account and by the time they'd asked them they just suspended the account so it's gone but but you said they suspended the account because the account was a fake account yeah they had uh they thought it was as posing as like a california yeah her name is talia yeah but it was it was an actual blogger in brazil oh so it was brazil wasn't russian no i'd i wasn't sure no i just was sort of saying like it was so went into a fake account of some but yes they saw seeds of yeah well they're trying to get people against each of course like they're doing that in America like people need to understand that this is actually really happening and there need their help really well we do turn against each other it makes it worse well if you stop and think about it has there ever been a time with the left and the right where more at each other's throats and right now CNN's enough you don't need Russia but but are CNN enough to really get people turned against each other like this no fucking way you need angry discourse online and the way that comes from there's there's an amazing radio lab podcast about this where They talked to people that actually worked in these troll farms and that these people were, they would both be left wing and right wing.
[332] And this is one of the things that they're talking about on the Sam Harris podcast.
[333] It's, I think it's called a War of Information.
[334] But they'll pose as like pro -choice people and say ridiculous shit.
[335] Yes.
[336] Like over the top, ridiculous.
[337] And then they'll pose as pro -life people with like an American flag and, you know, MAGA in the, you know, the hashtag MAGA and the, you know, the hashtag MAGA.
[338] they're heading, but they have nothing to do with that.
[339] They're just Russians.
[340] And they're just trying to get people riled up.
[341] And you see people jump on board and start chiming in.
[342] But I was talking to a comic that we were talking about that I won't bring his name up.
[343] But he referred me to this Russian guy.
[344] I'm not going to remember his name, but this is a clip of this Russian guy who worked for the KGB defected over here.
[345] And he was explaining how Russia does that.
[346] And this was back in the 80s.
[347] Oh, well, we do it, too.
[348] Everybody does it.
[349] They all do it.
[350] Everybody doesn't.
[351] They fuck with the system in any way, shape, or form in order to achieve a desired result.
[352] I think the Russians are the best at it, apparently.
[353] Well, I just think they're way more dedicated to it.
[354] Oh, yeah.
[355] I mean, it's a sneaky way to go about doing things, too, because Russia doesn't have the kind of money that the United States has.
[356] They got enough.
[357] You know, their economy is the size of Texas.
[358] Yeah.
[359] All they have is nuclear weapons.
[360] they're almost like a third world and a brutal dictator and a dictator yeah that's all it takes but as far as the economy and everything they're like a third world shit hole yeah it's well they're like a small European country but it's really interesting when you you listen to these podcasts about how much effort they put into sowing discourse or discord to getting people upset with each other to starting arguments and to saying things that are going to upset people in order to get the right versus the left yeah to like to undermine democracy from the inside.
[361] Yeah.
[362] It's really interesting.
[363] I mean, it's, it's weird that it works, but it makes sense that it works.
[364] I mean, it's a sneaky -ass strategy.
[365] Yeah.
[366] You think CNN does just as good a job?
[367] Oh, they really do.
[368] But you're so, you're so right -wing.
[369] You can't...
[370] I'm not so right -wing, John.
[371] How right -wing?
[372] Far -right, middle -right?
[373] I'd say...
[374] Center?
[375] Right of center?
[376] Not right of center.
[377] Right of center.
[378] Yeah.
[379] Yeah.
[380] Yeah.
[381] What's wrong with CNN?
[382] Do you like it?
[383] First of all, I don't need...
[384] You hear it in every fucking airport before I'm doing a gig.
[385] The last fucking words I went to hear were Wolf Blitzer before my plane crashes.
[386] Somebody told me Wolf Blitzer got on Jeopardy and they exposed them.
[387] Yes.
[388] I remember reading that, too.
[389] Because, you know, people get on television, they read off a teleprompter.
[390] You think they're brilliant.
[391] They seem brilliant.
[392] You know, they seem so smart.
[393] Then you get them alone.
[394] How about Louis goes on Jeopardy and wins?
[395] What, Louis C .K.?
[396] Yeah.
[397] Did he?
[398] Yeah.
[399] Remember they have celebrities on it once in a while?
[400] When did you do that?
[401] A couple of years.
[402] ago.
[403] Did he go on with regular people and win?
[404] I forget who he's against.
[405] I think there was other famous people.
[406] That makes sense.
[407] Remember Jonathan Groped?
[408] Yeah.
[409] Oh, he's very smart.
[410] Well, do you remember he went on Jemperty?
[411] Against regular people.
[412] He won for a long time.
[413] Yeah.
[414] He won the whole tournament, a comic.
[415] Yeah.
[416] So, folks, don't take us lightly.
[417] Does he still write four, there he is, Wolf Blitzer minus $4 ,000, you dumbass.
[418] Yeah, it didn't work out so well.
[419] That's fucking funny.
[420] It is hilarious.
[421] Well, you know, people can pretend to be smart, you know.
[422] You read off the teleprompter, they give you the script, you know, but John, was Jonathan Groff, does he still write for Kodan?
[423] That's a good question.
[424] He was writing for Kahn the last time I saw him.
[425] But he was fucking really, really bright.
[426] Funny guy, too.
[427] And really funny.
[428] Yeah.
[429] I don't think he does stand up anymore, though.
[430] I think he just writes.
[431] That's how smart he is.
[432] He's like, enough of this.
[433] Nonsense.
[434] This joky -joke -joke nonsense.
[435] Enough is enough.
[436] starting to feel that way but why do you hate CNN oh come on all the fucking shit they put out there and just an example how about before the when Donna Brazale had the notes for Hillary before the fucking Bernie yes remember that doesn't add enough to discredit she was a pundit and they still had her on that's what's ridiculous that they had her on after that yeah still they told her what the questions were going to be yeah yeah well her book was amazing though that that's what's interesting is they fucked her over and then she came out with a book and ripped them who that book is dark i have it i haven't i haven't read it it's only read pastures of it but what i read about how they rigged the dnc how they how they how they uh fuck bernie out of the primaries yeah yeah whew whew yeah yeah burney gets screwed it's a dark business it's fucking it's all the same they're all in cahoots but you don't think like the mainstream media it's sort of like a propaganda arm for the democratic party well Well, they definitely think they're working, they definitely think they're working for the good.
[437] But it's 93 % negative coverage with Trump.
[438] Right.
[439] Trump is an, you know, he's an unusually polarizing figure.
[440] Sure.
[441] I mean, was it that way with, well, I guess I was probably pretty negative with Bush.
[442] Always.
[443] It was a different world back then.
[444] No, it was, but they always, since I've been a kid.
[445] I mean, Reagan was a dummy and just a fucking B actor and an idiot and a racist.
[446] You can look at the shit year after year.
[447] That's true.
[448] George Bush, senior.
[449] George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Warmonger.
[450] It's the same shit, racist, bigot race, and it works.
[451] And Ford, it works.
[452] Ford was a moral.
[453] And Ford was, remember how he was betrayed on SNL?
[454] Yeah, he was always falling down.
[455] He couldn't walk three feet, which was kind of true, actually.
[456] And he was an athlete.
[457] But it's always been that way.
[458] The mainstream media has always sort of been more liberal.
[459] Right, but then you have Fox News, which goes far the other way.
[460] Well, were their opinion shows.
[461] But at least when you watch Fox News, which everybody who hates Fox News, who's never watches it, number one, but they at least have liberals on.
[462] And Shepid Smith fucking hates Trump.
[463] Yes, he does.
[464] Because he looks like every guy that bullied him as a kid.
[465] Do you think that's why he hates him?
[466] Yeah, I do.
[467] That's it?
[468] The only reason.
[469] Yeah, I do.
[470] That's the reason most of them hate him.
[471] Here's what they don't bring up.
[472] Even Hannity and all these guys.
[473] You get your head going like a pigeon.
[474] Oh, for Christ's sake.
[475] Let's change a subject.
[476] He's getting irritated with me already.
[477] I've got to get you out of L .A. I'm afraid you're going to get disease.
[478] I'm fine Everything's good over here No, I know Tell me about it But what were you just talking about Why they hate Trump Because they never bring up this though They never Because he's a alpha male Blonde hair blue eye Right Fucking billionaire That is the That's the embodiment of the devil For the left They never bring that up on the show Do you think that's really what it is There's nothing to do with him Lying all the time And there's nothing to do with it What's he lie about The number of people At his inauguration As opposed to to Obama going, oh, you can keep your health care.
[479] I mean, the fucking, you know.
[480] He doesn't lie any more than any other president.
[481] You don't think so?
[482] If he does, it's trivial shit.
[483] He's a salesman.
[484] He's a fine line.
[485] Well, he's definitely a salesman.
[486] Oh, he's a bullshitter, but that's what we need.
[487] We're a corporation.
[488] We're a corporate.
[489] The countries?
[490] Don't you think so?
[491] That's what I always heard.
[492] It's kind of like that?
[493] A little bit.
[494] I mean, but it's some sort of an organization.
[495] Does Hillary Clinton lie in all?
[496] Oh, yeah, for sure.
[497] Well, why didn't you get called on it?
[498] How is that fat twad, not in cups?
[499] Oh, how dare you?
[500] It is a good question.
[501] Yeah, it's a great question.
[502] I was talking to Mike Baker, who used to work for the CIA.
[503] Oh, I thought you meant my fucking web guy.
[504] No, because he bugging, he wanted to come out here with me. And Mike Baker from the CIA said, if he did anything remotely like what Hillary did, he'd be in jail for 30 years.
[505] Of course.
[506] Yeah.
[507] Remember the kid in the submarine that worked for the Navy that took pictures of the submarine?
[508] I mean, he like took a phone.
[509] a selfie and it had bad shit in the background that he wasn't supposed to take photos and how long was he in jail?
[510] I don't know.
[511] So I would just like to see some equity as far as people being held accountable on both sides.
[512] Well maybe it would have been different if Hillary made it through maybe it would have been different in terms of like media coverage if she actually became president.
[513] They would have sucked her ass you think so?
[514] Yeah.
[515] I don't know.
[516] I don't know man once Donna Brazil's book came out and people have an understanding about the inner workings of the party.
[517] I mean, I think, look, politics are, it's a dirty, dirty business.
[518] Phil, it's not a day.
[519] It's dirty.
[520] It's worse than podcast.
[521] But it's, podcast are pretty clean.
[522] I know.
[523] Like, relatively.
[524] But it's very clear.
[525] That's why people come to it now.
[526] You can't get the truth from mainstream media.
[527] Well, I was trying to explain to a friend who was talking about doing a podcast deal with a network.
[528] And I was like, stop.
[529] You can't do that.
[530] This is the one thing that you can have.
[531] Well, it can be mainstream, and it's free of everything.
[532] Free of any influence.
[533] And you're going to let a bunch of pencil pushers and button pressers.
[534] They're going to tell you what you can and can't say, which direction you can and can't go.
[535] You know, they're going to try to influence you.
[536] But isn't Google doing that?
[537] No. What do you mean?
[538] With conservatives, like shutting down Dennis Prager.
[539] It's like a fucking...
[540] What do you mean?
[541] As far as...
[542] Well, YouTube was owned by Google.
[543] I'm talking about a company, right, okay, I'm talking about a company, you going into business with them.
[544] Yeah, you can't.
[545] Where you're a podcast, you're free and independent.
[546] Right.
[547] And it's probably the only thing in the world where you can be completely free and independent and still reach millions of people.
[548] It really is the only thing in the world.
[549] But what is Google do?
[550] Well, what I'm saying, Google owns YouTube.
[551] Right.
[552] Right.
[553] And people like Dennis Prager, a religious right guy.
[554] Uh -huh.
[555] His show gets shut down on YouTube.
[556] What do you mean?
[557] It's shut down.
[558] They shut it.
[559] He's suing.
[560] He's suing.
[561] He's suing.
[562] fucking Google.
[563] I didn't know about this.
[564] Yeah.
[565] I know he does those shows with Corolla, but I didn't know he was shut down.
[566] I used to him and I lived in L .A. He's a conservative religious Jewish guy.
[567] I've listened to him a hundred times.
[568] Well, they consider it hate speech.
[569] I mean, that's when we're getting to a dangerous territory.
[570] Wait a minute.
[571] I pull up what happened to him because I'm completely ignorant about this.
[572] This is the first time I'm hearing about this.
[573] Oh, this is going to go to the Supreme Court.
[574] Really?
[575] I think so.
[576] So they pulled, so they took his page down.
[577] They said you can't have a page on YouTube anymore.
[578] Yeah.
[579] They say, Shut his show down.
[580] Do you remember what it was about?
[581] Not specifically, but I know it was labeled hate.
[582] And if you listen to this guy for 10 minutes, he's the most congenial, fair -minded, you know, but he's a, you know, religious guy.
[583] And that shit doesn't fly.
[584] Do you know Douglas Marius?
[585] He's actually...
[586] Of her, who is it?
[587] He's an intellectual from England who wrote about, wrote a book about immigrants in Europe called the Strangling.
[588] death.
[589] I think it's called Islam and the strange death of Europe.
[590] And he's basically talking about how people from these countries that have emigrated into Europe are changing the culture.
[591] Sure.
[592] Changing the culture.
[593] And there's all sorts of, you know, crimes and things that are happening that didn't exist before.
[594] Sure.
[595] And people are developing these communities of like -minded people that didn't exist before.
[596] Right.
[597] No -go zones.
[598] And he's saying that this is, you know, this is fundamentally dangerous.
[599] But he's saying it from a point, a perspective of understanding the actual facts involved and talking about the situation and talking about how these are people that don't respect homosexuals.
[600] They want to throw them off roofs and they have these opinions about people.
[601] They have these opinions about people that are extremely antiquated and not aligned with European values in the modern Western world.
[602] He and Sam Harris had a conversation and that conversation got flagged on YouTube it got flag because someone put it up in their you know you make like a little watch list what is it called what is it called the list you could where you put it on YouTube on your channel where you could a playlist yeah so he puts it on his playlist and he gets a a community guideline strike against him for putting up this conversation between two intellectuals so I have this conversation with this lady at YouTube and I said well why why would you do that why why does that she goes well it's hate speech i go it's hate speech i go you're talking about two intellectuals having a discussion about a real thing that's happening right now in europe and you're saying hate speech if you listen to the podcast there's no slurs used just facts they're just talking about but this is this was the way she said it because it's hate speech i'm like you you had you said that so easily yes you've never seen that's a lot of power but it's also a lot of irresponsible power i know responsible use of power but but but my point is they're cracking down on people who lean right, whether it's Twitter.
[603] You know I mean?
[604] That's 100 % true.
[605] And that's a big fucking problem.
[606] Hate speech.
[607] We're going to let Google decide.
[608] What's the name of the company?
[609] The own alphabet.
[610] They're going to decide what, what, I brought that up on, I brought that up on a tough crowd years ago.
[611] Wow.
[612] About when you disagree with a liberal or whatever, you're arguing with, they always go, you're a hater.
[613] They would keep saying that.
[614] and that's what it turned into it if you just disagreed you're a hater now it's you're a bigot or a racist if you didn't agree with obama's policies you're a bigot or a racist and and that shit works that that's been working for the left for years but now that the social media google controls almost all the information you i you and i hear every day i mean that's why it's so dangerous so look up yeah pregg is the first example that comes to mind that guy excuse me um Yeah, because he's, you know, a Christian or whatever.
[615] But he's not, yeah, he's Jewish, but, but, you know.
[616] Looking it up, unless, unless, what I just read was wrong, they weren't deleted, from YouTube at least, they weren't deleted, they were restricted, put it, like, meaning, like, they shut down his show.
[617] That, the, the adult thing, like, you have to have an account that says you're 18 or older or something like that.
[618] And they were fighting and having a lawsuit against that, saying that what they have in their videos are not, shouldn't be.
[619] behind that, like that wall, whatever that is.
[620] They also then...
[621] But this is my point.
[622] You have to go to YouTube to get the story.
[623] Hold on, sir.
[624] Well, no, I'm on their website.
[625] I went to a couple different websites to see it, but they were also, like, yesterday.
[626] They had ads blacklisted from Spotify.
[627] So they had ads that were, I guess, initially approved, and now they have been disapproved, and they haven't really explained to them.
[628] Dennis Prager's ads?
[629] Yeah, yeah.
[630] Well, he's so...
[631] So, but his page is still up.
[632] You know Carolla, aren't you?
[633] Yeah.
[634] I believe so.
[635] Ask him about it.
[636] Yeah, I will.
[637] But the YouTube.
[638] The YouTube page is still up.
[639] His show's not up.
[640] His show is shut down.
[641] I'll check that.
[642] They might have taken it down by now.
[643] This is like, this is kind of from a couple months ago.
[644] Yeah, they shut him down.
[645] So if you go to the Dennis Prager YouTube channel, it doesn't exist?
[646] I'm checking right now.
[647] Hmm.
[648] So the idea that they would make that 18 plus because it's conservative, that's hilarious.
[649] Well, this is up.
[650] It's up.
[651] This is it, right?
[652] This is his channel, bro.
[653] Prager, you.
[654] Yeah, that's his channel.
[655] It's got a million subscribers.
[656] A million 949.
[657] They shut his show down.
[658] So they brought it back up?
[659] Is that what you're saying?
[660] Maybe.
[661] They got a lawsuit.
[662] They have a video up from an hour ago.
[663] Spotify bans preger from advertising.
[664] Okay, then Google Prague a lawsuit.
[665] That's what it was about.
[666] It's about them being restricted.
[667] Yeah, I am angry because we're not getting the full story here.
[668] Well, I mean, we're just finding out that it's up right now.
[669] It's, he's suing him.
[670] Yeah.
[671] No, I believe you.
[672] So my point being is these big tech companies, a crush and conservative opinions for the most part, right?
[673] Yes, and here's a good way to look at it.
[674] If you're going after a guy like Dennis Prager, who again is the most congenial guy, never swears, very, very mild -mannered, very cool and calm, whether you agree with him or disagree with him.
[675] Right.
[676] It's not the way to go about something like this if you disagree with someone is not to shut him down.
[677] It's to have a debate.
[678] Exactly.
[679] Yeah, and that's not happening.
[680] Well, you know, when you saw the Google memo.
[681] You saw what happened with that guy when he provided all this information about one of the reasons why women don't get into tech.
[682] And they labeled him as being a massagist and a woman hater.
[683] Right.
[684] Like, no, he's giving you scientific studies that show the women have different interests.
[685] Is that Lawrence Summers you're talking about?
[686] There's been a few since.
[687] Lawrence Summers was actually the president of Harvard.
[688] And he was given a speech.
[689] And that's all he said.
[690] He brought up the numbers as far as males going into science and math.
[691] He didn't say women aren't good at it.
[692] Right.
[693] And he got fucking canned from Harvard.
[694] Yeah.
[695] Yeah, you can't have anything that...
[696] That's fascism.
[697] Yeah.
[698] If it disagrees with the orthodoxy, they'll come down on you.
[699] Even if it's factual, like James DeMore, and you could clearly back it up.
[700] You could look at the actual numbers.
[701] Not only that, that James DeMore guy put a page and a half in there on strategies for encouraging women to get into tech.
[702] I mean, if he was a real massage...
[703] He was working for who, DeMore?
[704] Google.
[705] Google, yes.
[706] He's the Google memo guy.
[707] Right.
[708] That was what started off because all these intellectuals came to his side.
[709] They go, look, why are we doing all this research if you guys completely ignore it every time it comes up?
[710] Right.
[711] Like, you're pretending that this research is not valid.
[712] This research is, it's scientific information that shows that certain types of people are more interested in different things.
[713] We've known that forever.
[714] That's why boy toys and girl toys are different because boys and girls like different shit.
[715] I mean, it's basically a more complex version of that.
[716] And he's essentially saying women.
[717] like different things.
[718] It doesn't mean that they can't do it.
[719] The only difference between the sex is a socially constructed obstacles.
[720] Well, gender is a social construct.
[721] Yeah, gender itself.
[722] It is.
[723] They should come here and take a look at your place.
[724] That would shut them.
[725] Shut the argument.
[726] It's all male.
[727] Male gender.
[728] I've got some female stuff here from when my kids come over.
[729] Tell them what you said to me when I say, what a fucking great place.
[730] Oh, this is what happens when women don't get to tell you what to do.
[731] You have a place You have a warehouse of mail But this looks That's not I'm a nice guy That's not bad And the problem is in this society Male energy Male thinking male And it is vilified And you're taught to think There's something wrong With being masculine Being masculine is a reason Why we don't speak German Okay stop Exactly Talk about toxic masculinity You could You'll be the poster boy For that shit Well the whole reason Why you need male people is because there's male people other places that will take away your shit and kill your people and rape.
[732] Exactly.
[733] This is not a bad thing.
[734] Male does not equal evil.
[735] Just because there are evil men, they are evil men.
[736] Doesn't mean all men are evil.
[737] There's evil women, too.
[738] It doesn't mean all women are evil.
[739] I dated three of them.
[740] I bet you dated more than three.
[741] Let's be honest.
[742] No, you're absolutely right.
[743] But this toxic masculinity is this fucking hilarious.
[744] Like you said, really, World War II.
[745] How about that turned out?
[746] Well, there's just so many dumb phrases like that, you know?
[747] Yeah, well, they're made up.
[748] Do you know about heteronormative?
[749] I'm sure.
[750] You know, cisgendered?
[751] Cisgendered, yes.
[752] Heteronormative?
[753] Yeah.
[754] Yeah, like you're imposing the norms, like, as if heterosexuality is normal.
[755] Well, did you see, what was the story a couple days ago?
[756] It was in California.
[757] Here are a beautiful state of California.
[758] They're trying to, the he, you can't say he or she, it's they now.
[759] What?
[760] Yeah.
[761] Where?
[762] everywhere i'm saying it i'm saying she i'm saying she i'm saying he uh yeah now you have to say they nope and they were passing it they had her in the the meeting uh the actual uh town hall or city where they're passing the ordinance and at the end she goes my my grandma my grammar teacher wouldn't approve of this she's rolling around her but we won't hear from her she said her and somebody called her out on it as she was passing the bill i was just asking she's in left wing nonsense you shouldn't say her about your grandma She's not here to correct gender identification.
[763] Of course, she looked like Newt Gingrich.
[764] There she is.
[765] California State Senator bans the use of he and she during committee hearings.
[766] Oh, look at her with her perfect fucking liberal haircut.
[767] Newt Gingrich's haircut.
[768] Oh, my gosh.
[769] Shamp Howard's facing.
[770] Some people are just hilarious.
[771] But they called her out.
[772] She's trying to do a good thing.
[773] That is funny.
[774] And they call her out.
[775] They had a laugh about it.
[776] That is so funny.
[777] Who the fuck does she look like?
[778] Oh, my God.
[779] We won't be hearing from her.
[780] Well, you made me laugh.
[781] Jackson was then interrupted by listeners who corrected her usage and demand...
[782] Oh, stop, stop.
[783] Go back.
[784] Corrected her usage and demand that she used the word they or them.
[785] They demanded.
[786] See, this is the problem with all this shit.
[787] Yes.
[788] It's demanding.
[789] They're trying to control people.
[790] They're telling people what to do and what not to do.
[791] And it's about power.
[792] A lot of this stuff is about power.
[793] All of it is.
[794] They're imposing their worldview on you.
[795] But it's not even their worldview.
[796] It's not real.
[797] What it is, is they're just deciding that this is a thing that they're going to agree to and they're going to force other people to comply.
[798] It's half the game.
[799] Half the game is just getting people to comply.
[800] Well, you do that by, and you start with language.
[801] You control people's behavior through language, which is the definition of political greatness.
[802] Well, that's what Carlin always said, that fascism is just political correctness with good manners.
[803] Our critical correctness is fascism with good manners.
[804] How about, you saw the clip of Louis at governors when he was talking about this, how the, you know, the millennials or whoever demanding what we call them.
[805] Yes, they are them.
[806] And he goes, okay, I'm...
[807] Louis goes, okay, I'm a location.
[808] Yeah, it's your mother's cut.
[809] Then he goes, I've got to come up with something more clever or not as harsh, whatever.
[810] I'm a location, your mother's cut.
[811] Yeah.
[812] What did you think about all that stuff getting leaked?
[813] About Louis's...
[814] You know, Stanhope had a really good point about that.
[815] What did Dougie say?
[816] Dougie was saying, like, look, if this was a movie, If you took that movie and filmed it in the movie theater and then put it online, you'd go to jail.
[817] That's right.
[818] You're a criminal.
[819] You're stealing.
[820] Right.
[821] You're exposing.
[822] And you're ruining his work.
[823] Yes.
[824] But they think they can ruin his work because he jerked off in front of some people.
[825] I don't even know if it's that.
[826] I don't even know if the person that leaked it like was a Louis hater.
[827] Sometimes they seemed like a fan.
[828] They were laughing hard.
[829] Yes.
[830] It's like they had their phone on their table.
[831] I was at, it wasn't governors.
[832] It was the brokerage, which is the same owners, a few years ago.
[833] and I'm up there doing my shit and working on a new hour, I looked down and the kid about 50 -6th row I see him I see the red light and he's got his head down so I come down off the stage he doesn't even hear me and I grab the phone out of his hand and fucking deleted I go dude you came out of because you're a fan of mine right?
[834] I go the problem I explained it to him and the whole crowd the problem with this is if you put this shit online I'm working on news that's old material right you're burning my shit do you get it yeah to all the other fans that listened to it for sure and also it's not fair because these bits are never done.
[835] Like if you want to release it half baked, like when you first start working on a bit, you have a premise, you got kind of an idea where it's going.
[836] Of course.
[837] Yeah, and then it eventually becomes a bit that you would put on a special.
[838] Right.
[839] Yeah.
[840] And they get it halfway or a quarter of it.
[841] And it looks shitty and it's or if it's done, you're doing a bit that's complete.
[842] Yeah.
[843] It becomes old.
[844] Well, that was some of the things that people were saying about Louis.
[845] The material's sloppy.
[846] It's not like his old stuff.
[847] Yeah, of course.
[848] He's working The old stuff you saw when it was done.
[849] Like, if you came to the store and saw him working on a set, like a few years back, you would see the same kind of stuff.
[850] I got a couple of comments like that when I put my last special out there like, well, he's doing the same stuff.
[851] Well, you came out to see me eight, ten months ago when I was working on it.
[852] Yeah.
[853] It's something in process.
[854] They don't understand, though, because it seems like when you're on stage and you're coming up to top of your fucking head.
[855] And it seems like you're doing something that they can do.
[856] You're just talking.
[857] Oh, I know.
[858] You're just talking.
[859] I can talk.
[860] It's like there's no other art form like that where it's just talking.
[861] That's exactly right.
[862] Nobody yells at a concert.
[863] Nobody's, uh, fucking, you know, I can play bass better than that jerk off.
[864] You know what I mean?
[865] But it's stand up.
[866] Some people probably do.
[867] People have, you know, because people have made their friends laugh.
[868] I think Seinfeld saw it in a book years ago because, you know, you make your friends laugh.
[869] Everybody's made their friends laugh with you're a comic and you're like, I can do it.
[870] I call people out when they look bored with me or they have their arms folded.
[871] I go, do it.
[872] You got that.
[873] smug looking you I know you could do this too but you'd rather work at the fucking mattress factory 80 hours a week and making fucking $400 there's people out there working at the mattress factory right now listening to go man fuck you nuke yeah well fuck them whoa hey how about you just ignore the guy that's sitting $2 ,000 for a mattress joking weird well I know you make a mattress how much could I pay you to make a mattress I don't know what am I getting at the comedy palace tonight in San Diego probably I have to pay you a lot of money to build me a mattress But you said it You got that look on their face You'd have to pay for the foam And stitch it all together Get the fuck out of here You can make it a mattress to be easy?
[874] Oh please I get farm laying all over the house Start with my wife's boobs Oh come on Joe Where do you get this coffee It's fucking delicious It's good right I think this is black rifle Black rifle profit I don't like that name It's racist Oh it's not It's a gun metal It's a company You know, veterans.
[875] See how serious he got coffee.
[876] It's veterans?
[877] Yeah.
[878] Veteran owned.
[879] You support the vet?
[880] Fuck yeah.
[881] Matt Flagg.
[882] Veteran owned too.
[883] Good for you.
[884] I got a flag.
[885] They sent me, uh, when I did the Afghanistan, U .S .O thing, guy sent me a flag that they used in battle.
[886] Nice.
[887] You have it folded up and, uh...
[888] I had it hanging, but then I made a gym out of my fucking whatever, so I don't know where it is.
[889] Well, you should probably find it.
[890] I should probably put it back up, shouldn't I?
[891] Sorry, I brought that up.
[892] Don't worry about it.
[893] Um, you.
[894] The Louis C .K. set, you know, was very similar, in my opinion, to all the shit that he did before he got in trouble.
[895] Absolutely.
[896] Very similar.
[897] Absolutely.
[898] Same kind of material.
[899] Absolutely.
[900] He does things.
[901] I mean, people forget that this is a guy who went on Saturday Night Live and did a joke about pedophiles.
[902] Yeah.
[903] And about, you know, maybe we should, like, let him get away with it so they don't kill your kids.
[904] I mean, this guy, it's fucked up.
[905] It's a fucked up bit.
[906] But he was the darling of the left back then.
[907] And so he was allowed to get away with that.
[908] Yes.
[909] If he tried to do that same material, if he hadn't done that then and instead did that now, people would be fucking horrified.
[910] What is it, Joe, about offending women or today's feminist?
[911] They are at the, in my opinion, all this political correctness that we hate so much, shut and down, they are at the core of it.
[912] Well, people.
[913] I say this, the zeitgeist of the Times is like a fat chick's emotion.
[914] Wow.
[915] Very sensitive.
[916] You can't cross them.
[917] Well, it's also because people are realizing now that they can make an impact.
[918] One of the things that I read, because he's doing this thing in Pittsburgh, he was doing the improv in Pittsburgh, and this lady who wrote the article wrote that he's making people put their cell phones in bags, much like comedians Dave Chappelle and Joe Rogan do.
[919] She used my name, too.
[920] Do you do that?
[921] I've done it before, but I only did it when I was filming my Netflix special.
[922] So I didn't want people putting the material out right before I was releasing the special.
[923] and then afterwards I decided it was too much of a pain in the ass but the only reason why I was doing it it had nothing to do with she said because they know words can offend and they don't want the consequences well I'm gonna put it on Netflix anyways it's gonna be out to the public it's offensive it's gonna if you're looking to get offended go watch my Netflix special there's plenty in there for you but I need to be able to do it correctly like I want to work it out so that it has the maximum amount of laughs with the minimum amount of people getting it the wrong way, right?
[924] So it's all about wording and setting it upright and listening to it and going, maybe there's a better way.
[925] And you can't do that if somebody releases your shit.
[926] And so these people that don't know comedy and they're saying this, like you have no idea what the process is like.
[927] You just don't.
[928] And if you do, you would respect it and appreciate it.
[929] That's right.
[930] And the people that are comics that don't respect and appreciate the process, like, fuck them.
[931] But it's just because people can make an impact.
[932] They can have a reaction.
[933] Just like the people yelling at her, you know, that she said, she said, oh, my grandmother would be rolling over in her grave.
[934] Oh, up, up, up.
[935] Say they in them.
[936] Say they in them.
[937] They're just trying to get a reaction from you.
[938] They're just trying to push buttons.
[939] They're just knowing that they can say something and they can have some sort of an impact.
[940] We're going to get Louis C .K. band from here.
[941] You know, we're going to get Nick DiPaolo kicked out of this club.
[942] You can't come to this club.
[943] You talk negatively about women and women's empowerment, and that's dangerous to girls.
[944] I only get kicked out of one place and, of course, one of the best clubs in the country.
[945] What club?
[946] Denver Comedy Works.
[947] You got kicked out of the Comedy Works?
[948] Like 20 -something years ago.
[949] For what?
[950] Well, it was a bachelor party, ruining the middle guy's set, the MC set.
[951] And then I went up, my second time there, I think.
[952] That's a great club, obviously.
[953] And they started yelling shit out.
[954] Take off your shirt, you dick, da -da.
[955] And I said, can we throw all these fat cunts out?
[956] And it turns out a fat cunt was running the clubs.
[957] So I was kicked out of it.
[958] Oh, you son of a bitch.
[959] Hey, well, that's how I feel, Joe.
[960] Well.
[961] I was thrown out because of my words.
[962] Well.
[963] And I get kicked out with smoking on stage and roosted tea feathers.
[964] Those the only two places?
[965] Yeah, I think.
[966] That was a long time ago, though, right?
[967] Smoking on stage?
[968] Oh, yeah.
[969] What was the last time you smoked on stage?
[970] Oh, a couple weeks ago?
[971] Oh, the fat black pussy cat.
[972] Do you smoke still?
[973] Well, you say still, I just really started.
[974] I was, I 15, 20 years ago I was a social smoker Because everybody The comedy seller I'd be sitting across Mattel Breathing in his shit And I'm like I might as well put a filter In my mouth And so You know I'd have one or two But then I really picked up The pace about a year ago What the fuck is that It keeps the pounds off What?
[975] Joe, it's no one dangerous than steroids It's not I don't know I just know I like it But Oh I do Oh I do Really?
[976] I do What kind of you smoke?
[977] Marlowe lights.
[978] Really?
[979] Yeah.
[980] Oh, it's gentle.
[981] The lights.
[982] Well, I'll take cancer light.
[983] You get a light tumor.
[984] Yeah, you get a...
[985] How many are you smoking a day?
[986] Half a pet.
[987] Really?
[988] Dude, you're too smart for that.
[989] That's outrageous.
[990] Oh, Joe, please.
[991] You are?
[992] Can't kill me. It can't?
[993] Nah.
[994] Wow.
[995] My grandfather smoked Paul Malls, unfelted and camels.
[996] So you think it's like a genetic thing?
[997] Yeah, you can't kill it to Apollo.
[998] No, it's...
[999] Look, it's, I do it my act, though, because my friends go, why would you start at this age?
[1000] And I go, why would you start in your 20 so you could have ass cancer in your 40s?
[1001] I'm timing it out.
[1002] I see.
[1003] If a doctor tells me I have cancer in 25 years, I'm going to kiss him on the lips.
[1004] You see the looks on guys in their 80s?
[1005] They look happy.
[1006] They're like, I wish I smoked when I was a fucking kid.
[1007] I knew you would have disapprobed.
[1008] Sad, sad for you.
[1009] Watch his chew.
[1010] I did that in college.
[1011] Get your jaw removed.
[1012] Yeah, no, exactly.
[1013] I'd rather go I'm very vain I don't want to be that lady that looks like Popeye I don't want to be that bright She was so cute when she was young You ever see when Yes And then she turned out to Popeye With the voice and everything But I'll kick it You promise?

[1050] himself.
[1051] Well, he's been in maybe a couple.
[1052] He's been in a few shit, shit movies.
[1053] That's a toxic masculinity right there.
[1054] I liked Apocalyptic.
[1055] I thought that was great.
[1056] I thought that was great.
[1057] A lot of people shit on that movie.
[1058] That was right up your alley.
[1059] Yeah, I loved it.
[1060] Yeah, exactly.
[1061] I'm fascinated with that culture.
[1062] I thought you coproduced it when I watched.
[1063] I wish I was part.
[1064] No, I love that movie.
[1065] I, you know, I think he's a, he's a very intense, very unusual, eccentric guy.
[1066] Like, just being around him.
[1067] You get the sense of his energy.
[1068] It's like, it's all over the place.
[1069] Even now.
[1070] Yeah, yeah, yeah, from lethal weapon.
[1071] Yeah, I don't have that.
[1072] Like, a lot of that, I think, probably came, like, that character probably came from, like, the dark inner workings of Mel Gibson's mind.
[1073] You got to really is.
[1074] You like, you like that, too, though, aren't you?
[1075] I don't have that energy.
[1076] Remember Trump kept calling Jeb Bush low energy?

[1079] I'm laying on the, you're talking about.

[1081] That thick ankle dog face.
[1082] That's what I call Hillary.
[1083] I don't even call her a guy.
[1084] What kind of a nickname if you were going to help him, like if he hired you?
[1085] Like Nick.
[1086] Pelosi?
[1087] I need a solid Republican comic to help me with my one -liners.
[1088] What do you think?
[1089] Well, I call her on my show.
[1090] I refer her to the leathery nippled.
[1091] That's too wordy.
[1092] I think she was pretty good looking when she was back in our day.
[1093] Like Lion Ted.
[1094] Okay.
[1095] Yeah.

[1097] Yes, that's who's coming over.
[1098] It's not fucking mostly 20 -year -old males.
[1099] No, leave the women and children, whatever.
[1100] Just push them off the wall.
[1101] What do you do with them?
[1102] Send them back to where the fuck they came from.
[1103] You have no sympathy for those folks that are trying to come over here?
[1104] The ones that are...
[1105] We're immigrant children.
[1106] Absolutely.
[1107] I mean, when did your parents come over?
[1108] My grandparents.
[1109] Grandparents.
[1110] At the turn of the century, like 1902, 1903.
[1111] Yep.
[1112] They should have stayed in Italy.
[1113] you think people should have stayed in Poland the Irish should have stayed in Ireland we would have no Nick DiPaolo it would be great this is an experiment that's not working Joe you got to admit what the fuck is wrong with you do you watch these viral videos it's not I know you're joking around but kind of seem I seem a little bit more dower oh no previous conversations we've had I was faking it Joe I was faking it I can say this shit I was fake this up my chest the light and cheeriness Remember my bit?
[1114] I had a great bit about immigration.
[1115] How it was like having a big party, but you had to contribute to the party.
[1116] Remember the bit?
[1117] It's one of my albums.
[1118] The Irish brought the booze.
[1119] The Italians brought the food.
[1120] Oh, okay.
[1121] Now I do, I do remember that.
[1122] Remember?
[1123] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1124] And the Mexican said, fuck, it will clean up afterwards.
[1125] You know.
[1126] Yeah, puss.
[1127] People loved it.
[1128] And, uh, but, no, I, look, I defend Latinos all the time on my show.
[1129] They're like Italians.
[1130] We're at the turn of the century.
[1131] Yes.
[1132] Hard working.
[1133] And when you watch the news and you see a lot of.
[1134] people dying, you know, fighting for us?
[1135] A lot of Latino names in there.
[1136] Oh, for sure.
[1137] I'm a big fan.
[1138] That's not the problem, you know.
[1139] So, but I don't think you should be labeled a bigot if you believe in, you know, securing the borders and it's not immoral.
[1140] How about all the heroin coming over?
[1141] Is that a lie to?
[1142] Well, you know how they're bringing that over there?
[1143] Did you pay attention to the Chapo trial?
[1144] They're bringing in cargo ships.
[1145] Most of it's coming over in cargo ships.
[1146] Is it?
[1147] Yeah.
[1148] You know, we're from the Sopranos, they said that eight out of ten cargo ships never get charged?
[1149] Yes.
[1150] Yes, I remember that.
[1151] Apparently that's true.
[1152] I was talking to a guy was a longshoreman about that.
[1153] He's like, you don't know what the fuck's in those things.
[1154] I know, and that creepy?
[1155] One of them is going to blow up.
[1156] That's the fucking, you put it.
[1157] Don't give them any ideas.
[1158] They already have these ideas.
[1159] They call me up and said, that's not a bad idea.
[1160] How did you get punched?
[1161] Why did that lady punch you?
[1162] It was a 20 -year -old bipolar girl.
[1163] I was at Levity Live.
[1164] I did a show, came off stage, went into the green room for a few minutes and then came back out and I was standing to the left of the stage and I don't always shake hands and do all that shit after the show I just don't feel it's in the job description sometimes I'll do it sometimes I want but some people started coming up to me shaking hands and taking pictures and this guy approaches me sort of look like you a little bit stands to my right and he goes can I get a picture and I go sure he's standing my right I'm looking at him talking to him he's like yeah I enjoyed the show but my daughter wanted to punch you in the face, he didn't even finish the word face, and I get suckered from this side.
[1165] I didn't even know she was in the fucking room.
[1166] All of a sudden, bam.
[1167] Whoa.
[1168] And I mean, bam.
[1169] I mean, fucking, you know, I was, I don't know if I ever get fucking suckered.
[1170] I could feel the eye closing immediately, you know.
[1171] And I looked right at him.
[1172] This is how good my instincts were.
[1173] Even when I was in shock, I go, did you just fucking set me up?
[1174] No, it's nothing like that, man. He didn't jump in and he didn't jump in and go to his daughter.
[1175] What are you doing?
[1176] was kinder.
[1177] I, to this day, believe it was complicit.
[1178] He was complicit in it, but I'm still pursuing it.
[1179] What did she do?
[1180] I finally looked at her.
[1181] I go, why, why'd you fucking, why'd you do that?
[1182] Because you're mean.
[1183] She thought I was racist and sexist.
[1184] Meanwhile, there was a table of black people, Dominican, it was a very diverse crowd, absolutely loved it, coming to my defense after that happened.
[1185] Nobody got offended.
[1186] Even a friend of mine who's seen me a million times, because you weren't even being that political that night.
[1187] That's, she had a burk, stocks on and you know bipolar and and I'm still pursuing it and the guy didn't apologize nothing he was he didn't apologize but he I said you just fucking said no I didn't man it's it's nothing like that you know I she said I shouldn't have brought her here but you did you weaponized your bipolar daughter is what you did I believe they sat down at the table before they left the house he knows what I did for comedy and he hated he didn't have the balls to do it himself you think yeah that's what I think look at you So I'm going to work with those kettlebells Before I leave here And I'm going to find this motherfucker I'm going to get you on a bike And get you to burn off some energy Jesus Christ It might be that This is my rifle coffee I love this shit Veteran -owned coffee It's very potent I want to contribute To anything veterans do I got some bags for you I'll get you some It's great stuff But yeah So the fucking Ike You had the funniest This is what's funny about it For years people Tell me to you know Keep your temper and check You know you'll fuck up your career You don't blah blah I've been hearing that for years After this happened And they're all going, why didn't you hit her back?
[1188] Why don't you?
[1189] You texted me like the next day or that and I, I can't remember.
[1190] And you said, you go, this made me laugh for five minutes.
[1191] You go, Joe goes, I thought Joe was going to go.
[1192] Good thing you didn't hit her back.
[1193] Joe goes, I would have fucking leg whipped her.
[1194] Which made me laugh so hard because she's this frail thing.
[1195] And if you leg whipped her, you would have taken her legs clear off, like a helicopter blade.
[1196] I was belly laughing for five.
[1197] You were leg whipping this leg kicker.
[1198] Yeah.
[1199] I don't think I would have said, okay, excuse me. Well, you got to.
[1200] You can't let someone punch you.
[1201] The real problem is, like, someone could really damage.
[1202] Yeah.
[1203] I saw you in the parking lot.
[1204] Really hurt your eye.
[1205] That clip of you in the park.
[1206] Well, I have a permanent dent in my face.
[1207] Yeah.
[1208] You can see it.
[1209] I have a permanent dent.
[1210] I don't know if she had a ring on.
[1211] Really?
[1212] There's a little dent there.
[1213] Yeah.
[1214] She probably had a ring on.
[1215] Yeah.
[1216] Someone could hit you in the eye and you lose.
[1217] Good for you.
[1218] That would have been embarrassing.
[1219] You could lose your vision.
[1220] I mean, that's 100 % possible.
[1221] Happens to people all the time.
[1222] I had a slight concussion.
[1223] She really fucking caught me flush.
[1224] I'm not shocked.
[1225] Especially if you didn't.
[1226] No, what would you have done?
[1227] I don't know.
[1228] I hope I wouldn't have done what I think I would do.
[1229] I know, because you could lose a lot of...
[1230] I know you get insurance for that.
[1231] The real problem is when you're not thinking, when you get hit and then you immediately respond.
[1232] That's a real problem.
[1233] Because, look, you've seen that video, that giant six -foot -five guy who punched that 11 -year -old girl in the face.
[1234] Yes.
[1235] She had a coming.
[1236] Well, she definitely shouldn't have walked up to him with his fists up.
[1237] And she definitely shouldn't have pushed him first, but he definitely shouldn't have punched her in the face.
[1238] his big giant fucking guy I know with a nice shot you don't want you don't want to punch a girl you don't want to hit a girl and I didn't you don't want to go into that reptilian part of your brain either that just responds to being assaulted oh that was killed that's very dangerous I saw you remember that clip years ago you in the parking lot and the comedy's to argue with some bride oh that feminist lady and I thought you were gonna I was trying to be nice to her meanest people on the earth I was nice to that lady for a long time until she's finally telling what she's going to, she's going to hit me with her cigarette.
[1239] I'm like, listen, you're not doing anything.
[1240] I know.
[1241] I was watching, go, what's going to happen next?
[1242] But it's just so stupid that people think they can get away with things like that.
[1243] Well, they can, apparently.
[1244] If you were alone in a parking lot with that girl, and she punched you in the face like that.
[1245] What if I even fucking cropped her there?
[1246] What if I hit?
[1247] I said this, and I've been making this point.
[1248] You want true gender equality.
[1249] If we had it, I could have fucking knocked her the fuck out.
[1250] And everybody went, you know what?
[1251] She had it coming.
[1252] We all went home.
[1253] Well, that's not the world we're living in right now, Joe.
[1254] You showed amazing restraint in not hitting her back.
[1255] Because I wasn't drinking.
[1256] And what?
[1257] I don't know.
[1258] What if you were drinking?
[1259] I would have probably wrestled her.
[1260] At least cuffed her?
[1261] Yeah.
[1262] I've been in two.
[1263] Fareslap.
[1264] Yeah.
[1265] I would have gave her.
[1266] From behind, though, a dirty one.
[1267] Oh, a dirty one.
[1268] Yeah.
[1269] I would have came from here.
[1270] Do you ever see that?
[1271] Did he ever see that video?
[1272] There's a kid, a black kid walking down the street and some black neighbor, and he's rapping to some shit.
[1273] And this black kid walks up.
[1274] from behind like in a wife beater and winds up from his asshole with an open hand it would blow your ears out if you had the headphones but i uh i was proud of myself and that's why i was laughing after the incident of people i know who've been telling me you know you know to cool it or whatever you should keep you they were all like yeah shut a fucking body slay my aunt's like you should have fucked her up i was so proud of myself for once that i was you know i was the adult in the room And I, you know, I know, in the times we're living in, it wouldn't matter the circumstance.
[1275] If toxic masculinity, if I croaked her.
[1276] Well, I don't know, man. If somebody punches you and you punch them back, I don't know what the fucking rules are about that.
[1277] Oh, I do.
[1278] I mean, she's obviously very small.
[1279] That would have been a real problem because she's small.
[1280] But you shouldn't be fucking hitting people.
[1281] Now, you said you were working on it like that you're still in the middle of it?
[1282] Like, what's going on with it?
[1283] Uh, yes, I, uh, I'm pursuing it and they, it's just so, you can tell they don't give a fuck.
[1284] The, the DA was a woman in that county and now she's off the case for some reason.
[1285] They shuffle the, um, but they went, they, you know, it should be assault or aggravated or stuff, but of course you can't go because if you don't get that, I can't sue her civilly.
[1286] If I lost that, it would hurt my case.
[1287] At least that's the logic they were telling me. So they're trying to get her with like second degree harassment.
[1288] now there's a new woman on the case and she said they're making her go to you know anger management and uh because she has mental issues and uh i'm not looking for money i just want to make an example of her so but why don't why not pursue it as assault it's clearly assault i know well you tell me so is your lawyer's decision to not pursue it that way it's not no nobody first of all nobody wanted to take the case because i'm fine really yeah they're like uh wow Your site's not fucked up, you're not in a wheelchair, you're not, but yeah, I give lawyers credit for that much.
[1289] They're honest, it's all about the money.
[1290] But that's crazy.
[1291] But I found the guy, this guy, Andrew Funk, who's a lawyer, who was a Marine, and I said to, he contacted me, and he put me in touch, first with a Russian woman who took about three of my calls and she got tired because there was no money involved.
[1292] And he hooked me up on another guy, another lawyer who right now I'm dealing with.
[1293] but um yeah they were all right up front that the if there's no money involved and you're not permanently you're not going to you know but i just i don't want money and this guy sort of agree with me this andrew funk guy is a marine he just wants to make an example right she said i was racist and sexist you know uh so i just want to make an example i'm not looking for money but it's her father that really pisses me up she's nuts how old is she's broad's nuts like 2021 goes to school in upstate new york so she's not that nut she lives on her own but it's the fucking old man that was complicit in it I think he actually used her as like a weapon that night It seems like it would be way harder to prove that she was complicit than it would be to prove that she punched you No, I agree Did she apologize over?
[1294] Never.
[1295] She ran up into the lobby which is normally where you take pictures with fans and she put her head on the table and was crying after she realized what she'd done or whatever you know They took there like a psychiatric hospital So they're saying, well, you know So I just want to make an example of her That's all I don't, I'm not looking for it But, but, you know, that's ridiculous And the next time I will hit back You think?
[1296] Yeah.
[1297] Don't.
[1298] No?
[1299] Wait a minute, Joe, you're confusing me now.
[1300] It's too little.
[1301] Well, give me a kick that would just like hurt her ovaries.
[1302] All three of them.
[1303] Go for a knee.
[1304] A knee to the pussy would be how you damage I don't want to lose my knee I just would say don't hit her I'm not going to hit her I wasn't raised that way Even in the future If somebody does that No I'm not I would never Well you've been proven Stabbing or gun You prove it Because you haven't done it You didn't do it You had the ultimate opportunity Somebody actually hit you And you didn't hit them back It's one of my proudest moments Yeah you should be Should be proud of that I've been Amazing restraint You ever get into it With a fan Or somebody in the audience No I've been in twice One time at the comedy store I threw a drink at me Holy shit And how did you restrain yourself?
[1305] I don't remember I essentially invited him to get killed How'd you do that?
[1306] Come on, come on up here Come on up here, I'll show you what's up Who would fucking throw a drink at you?
[1307] Some asshole There's him and his dad They were heckling everybody before the show Before I got on stage rather They were heckling everybody This was a long time ago It was probably 2003, 2004 And he knows who you are and he knows you're just a pussy he just threw it my way you know he wanted to get famous well he didn't even want to get famous there was no social media back then not to speak of people weren't getting famous or things like that he could put it in the paper he's just a drunk asshole who was interrupting comedy and the comedy store back then had zero um protection there was no nobody's police in the room cloud crowd room right no no crowd control at all but yeah it's fucking it's an issue with people they're drinking right and especially if you get crazy people are drinking, weird stuff can happen.
[1308] It's unfortunate.
[1309] Yeah.
[1310] It's just, you know, people that don't have respect for performers, too.
[1311] They don't have respect for what you're doing that it's difficult.
[1312] And if they disagree with you, they think they're disagreeing, even if it's just a, you didn't even know where the joke is going.
[1313] They'll interrupt and they'll yell stuff out.
[1314] And they've just no, no regard for the forum that you're in, the fact there's hundreds of other people that are there to see you.
[1315] It's about their mind and their selfish notions.
[1316] that they want to get out right away.
[1317] And they have no idea how little it takes to throw off the balance of the room.
[1318] Oh, yeah.
[1319] Just a slight confrontation.
[1320] Just telling somebody to shut up and all of a sudden, like, you're the bad guy.
[1321] And a lot of times it's somebody right up front so they can't hear.
[1322] Yeah.
[1323] You know?
[1324] And then it looks like you're just scolding somebody for no reason.
[1325] Yeah.
[1326] I've had that, too.
[1327] And I'm super sensitive.
[1328] Somebody farts in the 50 -second row.
[1329] I can hear it or whatever.
[1330] I am.
[1331] I just have that, you know.
[1332] Yeah, well, you know, you've learned, I've, you know, exactly, exactly, I mean, because you do, you study what's going on, you read their faces and whatnot, and I'm really good at it and fucking, if I see one person laughing out of 600, I'm not laughed.
[1333] Yeah, you've always been like that.
[1334] No, but I fixed it.
[1335] I just fixed it.
[1336] I fixed it years ago.
[1337] Well, after about 12 clubs, said, listen, you're going to stop doing it.
[1338] I did, but you know what?
[1339] I am so much better.
[1340] And not hitting her proved it.
[1341] Now I I had a brawl breakout that had nothing to do with me at Gotham a couple years ago What was it about?
[1342] Two tables were fighting amongst each other Oh I heard about this It was hilarious Talk about hitting a girl I just stood on the stage I love it I felt like Lenny Bruce Comics have a lot of punk in us You know But I didn't start this The fucking braw breaks out I'm watching it Two tables Girls and Guys involved There's a girl in the middle With her fists up Like she took three fucking Tybo classes Tybo classes.
[1343] She's, and she takes a swing and hits one of the bounces.
[1344] I watch this other bouncer come across the room and drop her like a fucking use rubber.
[1345] I mean, hit her like, she was a guy.
[1346] Really?
[1347] Oh my God.
[1348] I don't know how this guy didn't do jail time.
[1349] But these broads, this is what this feminist movement has taken.
[1350] Now they jump in.
[1351] Every time you see a fight in a football game that stands is women involved in shit, they really fucking think, I'm sorry, but legislation, you can't fucking legislate DNA out of us and they're always in the middle of it you notice that?
[1352] A lot of fucking broads think they can dogg it out now?
[1353] Well there are a bunch that have a delusional idea.
[1354] Yeah.
[1355] Yeah, they seem too many Wonder Woman movies.
[1356] Exactly.
[1357] They've been brainwashed.
[1358] Well, there's a lot of people in general that think they could go around punching people.
[1359] Like, how about all these Antifa dorks that are starting fights?
[1360] Well, they're not like that, they're starting fights with people and they have zero idea how to fight.
[1361] They're swinging at people.
[1362] Did you see the one guy?
[1363] A guy swings at this guy with a back.
[1364] or with a baton the guy catches the baton and punches him in the face and caos him and his head snaps back and his head bounces off the concrete when he falls down it's awful to watch like what the fuck made you think you could just hit a man with a stick because you guys disagree with each other yeah and and you're right when they interview them after a lot of times they not even after a fight but they interview somebody's in TV they sound like almost swishy yeah some of them swishy like homosexual is what you're saying no I wouldn't go that far weak a feminine well Well, they want to become a...
[1365] Look, look, Antifa is just like any other group of people.
[1366] They give you a community, whether it's a gang or whether it's a criminal organization or, you know, whatever it is.
[1367] People fall in line with the sensibilities of that organization, and then you do what you can to support that organization to show that you're a valued member.
[1368] And then, you know, you start wearing their fucking ski masks and hitting people with sticks and everybody's practicing karate in the park because they think they're going to be able to.
[1369] to defend themselves.
[1370] The whole thing is ridiculous.
[1371] Because their life has no value outside of that.
[1372] Isn't it weird to you that, look, my parents were hippies.
[1373] And when I grew up, I always thought that people on the left were peace -loving.
[1374] That was what the knock was.
[1375] They were peace -loving, well -educated.
[1376] But you're seeing now people on the left, like these certain factions of them, not all of them, but are people that are calling for violence.
[1377] They're violent pacifists, ironically.
[1378] Yes.
[1379] Well, they don't want to do it themselves, but they're calling for other people to do it.
[1380] Right.
[1381] Yeah.
[1382] Right.
[1383] They're calling for people to get punched.
[1384] Like that kid with the MAGA hat, like Reza Oslon Rohn, have you ever seen a more punchable face?
[1385] Yeah.
[1386] What the fuck are you saying, man?
[1387] You know, it's like this extreme lack of empathy for young people too.
[1388] Like young people that don't fall in line with their ideas, they don't give a fuck.
[1389] They'll fuck that kid.
[1390] Punch him.
[1391] Throw them in jail.
[1392] Lock them up.
[1393] It's just like it's, there's a lack of empathy and a lack of thought behind it.
[1394] It's very.
[1395] And social.
[1396] media is only throwing gas on that.
[1397] Yes.
[1398] And then you got these Russian accounts that are firing this up on both sides that are attacking from the left and the right.
[1399] I think that's a way bigger issue than people think.
[1400] I think these troll farms and these people that are setting up these fake accounts and just getting people riled up.
[1401] Maybe.
[1402] I think there's a lot of fucking lemmings out there.
[1403] And a lot of people just, they fall into these arguments.
[1404] Like, how many people do you know that get involved in Twitter arguments?
[1405] And then they stew with those arguments all day.
[1406] They keep checking their mentions, they're getting heavily involved at that.
[1407] If someone can get you involved in that, like if the Russians can get a group of dummies involved in that kind of dispute, they could literally change the way people are interacting with each other.
[1408] They're making the interactions more aggressive, more violent.
[1409] So you think it's the Russian?
[1410] I think it has something to do with it.
[1411] I think there's a polarization between the left and the right, period.
[1412] But I think they are definitely...
[1413] They're throwing gas on it.
[1414] Yeah, this thing that I was reading, or listening to, rather, this Sam Harris podcast, very fucking interesting because they're talking about what we actually know about the data and where it's coming from and how these people are doing this and how they're setting these things up.
[1415] Yeah, that guy, the comic that you and I talked about, again, that clip of this Russian who was a former KGB guy who defected to this country, explaining how it works.
[1416] Back in the 80s.
[1417] Explaining exactly how it works.
[1418] And what he was saying, this is 30 -something years ago, 35 years ago, is going down exactly the way explained it.
[1419] And Putin is a KGB guy.
[1420] Oh, Christia.
[1421] Yeah, I mean, that's this idea that Trump's working with him is fucking silly.
[1422] Well, I don't know about that.
[1423] I don't think he's working with him to undermine democracy, but I definitely think they've got some business dealings.
[1424] I mean, they were offering him to Trump.
[1425] Well, yes, but that's not illegal.
[1426] The Penn House and Trump power.
[1427] That's not illegal.
[1428] None of that is illegal.
[1429] Don't take that from me. Take that from Alan Dershowitz.
[1430] I'm smarter than both of us.
[1431] I'm not saying it's illegal, but I don't.
[1432] think that he was honest about that he said i don't do any dealings with russia i don't have any business with russia and he definitely did that's just not true well we'll see we'll see that's with the targeting they're not going to get him for anything you don't think he's on you think he's going to just well maybe impeachment but i don't even on on what case i don't even know what they get him high crimes and misdemeanors i don't know what what he's done to talk about building a tower in moscow is not illegal or to have business and what he what did he lie about specifically Well, there's a lot.
[1433] Like what?
[1434] We can pull it up.
[1435] Let's find out all the things that travel out.
[1436] Well, you can go to a million different websites.
[1437] Well, I know.
[1438] Which ones are telling the good independent website?
[1439] We just established that the fucking social media tilts left, so.
[1440] Yes, social media does.
[1441] We're not talking about pulling up social media pages.
[1442] What are you pulling up?
[1443] I don't know.
[1444] Washington Post.
[1445] I'm like, I'm not a Trump scholar.
[1446] I haven't at my disposal all the different times that he lied, but it's a lot.
[1447] So what are your things going to happen to him?
[1448] You think they'll impeach him, you mean?
[1449] No. Or he'll resign or what?
[1450] I don't know.
[1451] Look, I'm not claiming to be any sort of an expert in legal proceedings.
[1452] I have no idea.
[1453] Me either.
[1454] That's why I quoted Dershowitz.
[1455] I think, well, isn't Dershowes working with Trump?
[1456] No. Giuliani is.
[1457] Oh, that's right.
[1458] Dershowich is the, I always go to Dershowitz.
[1459] Because he's a fucking lib.
[1460] Trump averaged 15 inaccuracies and mistruths a day in 2018.
[1461] Almost triple the rate from a year before.
[1462] Okay.
[1463] But hold on a second.
[1464] What's the inaccuracies in myths, truths?
[1465] It's a European paper.
[1466] but isn't that a little odd 15 a day?
[1467] No, because I don't know who's making that claim I don't know the exact 15 inaccuracies.
[1468] You doubt that it's true?
[1469] You think it's all a lie that it's just made up the fact that he lies a lot?
[1470] A lies about what?
[1471] First of all, it's a definition of a lie.
[1472] I don't know, let's see.
[1473] It says Washington Post, who they hate Jeff Bezos, yeah.
[1474] Who absolutely hates Trump.
[1475] But that's my point.
[1476] That's my point.
[1477] That's right.
[1478] But that's my point.
[1479] By the last day of 2018 Yeah, you're going to the Washington Post.
[1480] That's my point But let's see what it says I mean they can't lie The total figure is into 7 ,600 So you think they just made up all these lies Of course Not all of them I'm sure but you could go back with Hillary And fucking count You could go to go to Fox News And then pull up an article How many times Hillary was inaccurate Do you know what a whataboutism is?
[1481] A what aboutism Yeah when someone talks about something And instead of refuting it with facts They go yeah well what about Hillary What about Bill?
[1482] Bill did it too What about this?
[1483] What about that?
[1484] That's a what -aboutism.
[1485] That's what I just committed.
[1486] That was a what -abod.
[1487] Because you were saying Hillary lied.
[1488] We both agreed.
[1489] But you're making my point.
[1490] You're going to the Washington Post.
[1491] Okay.
[1492] That's just Jamie pulled up the independent.
[1493] We could go anywhere.
[1494] But hold on a second.
[1495] Look, I'm with you.
[1496] I think Hillary's a liar.
[1497] I think she deleted 30 ,000 emails.
[1498] I think it's criminal.
[1499] I think the Clinton Foundation's a fucking fully illegal organization.
[1500] I think they rigged the DNC.
[1501] I think they rigged the primaries against Bernie.
[1502] I'm with you.
[1503] I'm not a. supporter.
[1504] No, I'm not saying you are, but when's the last time somebody made a statement like that and said this many inaccuracies when Bill Clinton was in office or, I don't think he lied as much.
[1505] Or Hillary.
[1506] I'm sure.
[1507] I'm sure there was some inaccuracies.
[1508] But first of all, when Bill Clinton was in office, they weren't.
[1509] Did they count Obama's?
[1510] I don't know, but that's a what aboutism.
[1511] You know what I'm saying?
[1512] We're just talking about Trump.
[1513] You were saying that Trump doesn't lie, and they're saying he lies thousands and thousands of times.
[1514] First of all, you said what does he lie about?
[1515] No, first of all, you know, I like to know the definition of a lie.
[1516] If he misstate something, do you think he does it accidentally?
[1517] I'm sure sometimes when you're talking that much.
[1518] Okay, so if he lies 1 ,900 times in the day.
[1519] Give me an example of a blatant, yeah, that's fucking, it's Washington Post.
[1520] It's horseshit.
[1521] I don't know.
[1522] I do.
[1523] You think it's all lies.
[1524] Not all of it.
[1525] No, he's a bullshitter for sure.
[1526] Yes.
[1527] But to take care, Joe, would you argue that they haven't been trying to take him down since he came down that fucking escalator.
[1528] How about the deep state?
[1529] How about the fucking dossier?
[1530] What, why is it?
[1531] Wait, wait, what does that mean?
[1532] The dossier.
[1533] What dossier?
[1534] The fake dossier, Christopher Steele, that they used to get the FISA application.
[1535] Explain you people what you're talking about.
[1536] I just did.
[1537] They know what I'm talking about.
[1538] No, no, no, no. They don't.
[1539] They don't.
[1540] Because I don't know.
[1541] What do you mean?
[1542] The dossier, the fake dossier.
[1543] Remember they said they had, they had, yes.
[1544] You have to know this.
[1545] So you're being willfully ignorant.
[1546] No, I don't know.
[1547] Nick, Nick, I don't know.
[1548] Okay, I'm explaining.
[1549] Hold on a second.
[1550] Do you know?
[1551] I've heard, these are terms I've heard yes.
[1552] But you don't know the full extent of this.
[1553] Yeah, well, this is what I'm talking about.
[1554] This is as big a story as anything Trump has done.
[1555] What is the story?
[1556] The Steele dossier that Hillary used, they went to, you had to get an application to the FISA courts.
[1557] And they used DNC opposition.
[1558] Christopher Steele, who was a British guy, had connections in Russia.
[1559] Remember when they said Trump was at a hotel and watching girls peeing on each other?
[1560] Yes.
[1561] That was all in the Steele dossier.
[1562] Christopher Steele is his name.
[1563] They used that in their application to get a FISA warrant to spy on Trump during his campaign.
[1564] That's fact.
[1565] That's not me being a right winger.
[1566] That is fact.
[1567] Okay.
[1568] But the fact that, like, that you don't know that.
[1569] No, I remember that now.
[1570] Oh, that's what I'm talking about.
[1571] But you were just...
[1572] That's the biggest story as Trump, you know, lying about the number of people at his inauguration.
[1573] I want to know the – I want to know a lie from Trump that's equal in power as like when Obama said that, you know, lied about health care, that you could keep your health care and all that.
[1574] Give me an example of Trump with that big of a lie.
[1575] Well, listen, I've told you.
[1576] He does lie.
[1577] I'm not saying he does it.
[1578] All presidents lie.
[1579] All politicians lie.
[1580] I'm just saying they start to count it when Trump took over.
[1581] They started keeping, you know, keeping statistics.
[1582] Well, like what?
[1583] Give me an example.
[1584] Like, look, we just showed you.
[1585] all the numbers of the Washington Post provided.
[1586] From the Washington Post.
[1587] So if I give you another example, you're going to say, oh, that's from this or that's from that.
[1588] If you go to salon .com.
[1589] Well, we won't go to salon.
[1590] All right.
[1591] Well, go to go to.
[1592] I don't know what you go to.
[1593] We've gotten more done than any other administration.
[1594] Okay.
[1595] This is a lie.
[1596] So true, blah, blah, blah.
[1597] See, now, if somebody says that's a lie.
[1598] Well, let's see what it's at.
[1599] Jamie, go back to it.
[1600] What are you doing?
[1601] But who's saying that's a lie?
[1602] Well, let's see.
[1603] Let's see.
[1604] Let's what it says.
[1605] Jesus Christ, you're so defensive.
[1606] It's like, do you work for the organization?
[1607] No, I don't, but you're putting, you're using the Washington Post.
[1608] No, this isn't the Washington Post.
[1609] Well, what is it?
[1610] This is NBC.
[1611] Oh, the NBC.
[1612] Okay, NBC.
[1613] Okay, so everything is that.
[1614] Look, man, I'm just reading what it's in front of me. I know, and I'm just, you're so emotional about this.
[1615] It's ridiculous.
[1616] I have four cups of coffee at Michelle.
[1617] We should have two.
[1618] Huh?
[1619] Oh, please.
[1620] You know, I'm right.
[1621] I don't know you're right.
[1622] That's what we're talking about this.
[1623] Are you going to tell me you don't know that the mainstream media hates Trump?
[1624] They do.
[1625] I do.
[1626] I do.
[1627] I agree.
[1628] Why would you put your fucking.
[1629] because I want to know whether or not they are saying what is stop doing that Jamie go back to where it was you can't go to it.
[1630] Says Trump later said that he intended the UN moment to garner a laugh that has repeated this claim seriously since.
[1631] Okay so he says that my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of the country.
[1632] So this is just that's an exaggeration.
[1633] That's hyperbole.
[1634] Right and people were laughing when he said that and so he was saying that he meant to say it as laugh.
[1635] Okay.
[1636] There are varying measures of success, but it's not true that his administration has been more successful than any other administration in history.
[1637] When it comes to legislation, Trump has signed plenty of bills in his first two years as president, but Barack Obama in his first two years has significantly more, signed significantly more.
[1638] Okay, this is just one thing.
[1639] I mean, I'm sure there's many, many other things that you can keep going over and over again.
[1640] I'm with you in that.
[1641] I'm not saying he's not a bullshitter, but I'm just saying all of a sudden they keep score when trying.
[1642] He's no more of a fun thing to keep score of because he lies so much.
[1643] Well, who's keeping, who is keeping school when fucking Hillary was Secretary of State?
[1644] Well, it's a different thing when someone's Secretary of State.
[1645] And I don't know how much she lied as opposed to how much he lost.
[1646] Her lies are a lot bigger.
[1647] There's about her fucking server and about the steel dossier.
[1648] That is huge.
[1649] That is getting undercover like nobody's been.
[1650] That dwarfs Watergate when they unmasked General Flynn.
[1651] That dwarfs Watergate.
[1652] That's an interesting conversation.
[1653] I don't know if that's the truth.
[1654] I don't know enough about Watergate.
[1655] All right.
[1656] And I don't know enough about that either.
[1657] Okay.
[1658] Is it the coffee going on here?
[1659] Well, yeah.
[1660] Why is it strung out?
[1661] Can we move away from something political?
[1662] Guy.
[1663] It's not emotional.
[1664] It's just, I'm just, but you're acting as if I'm against you and I'm not.
[1665] You're not against me. Even if you were, that'll be fine.
[1666] But you're not against me, but I'm just saying to call Trump a big a lie than the fucking every other politician is an exaggeration.
[1667] I don't know if it is.
[1668] By the mainstream media who hates his guy.
[1669] I think most politicians are liars.
[1670] I think they're just they're accustomed to doing that, but I think the way he lies is unusual.
[1671] I think it's the numbers are unusual.
[1672] It's just an unusual.
[1673] You don't think so?
[1674] He exaggerates, like statements like that is an exaggeration, although he did do a lot in his first couple of years, would never get credit for it, you know, unless you watched Fox News.
[1675] You're not going to, but, would you agree that as you get older, you become?
[1676] become more, like, more conservative?
[1677] No, I was always a bit of a dick.
[1678] I got a tattoo of Nixon on my ass.
[1679] I thought it was four.
[1680] Yes, no, I would say that was, that's a, what do they say about if you're young, you know, if you're young and conservative, you have no soul?
[1681] No heart.
[1682] Yeah, no. And liberal.
[1683] And liberal, you have no mind.
[1684] Yeah.
[1685] Yeah, I would say, yeah, that's true.
[1686] But I could always detect the bullshit, you know, I mean, I mean, I remember watching CNN in an airport when I first started comedy and that's like 1980.
[1687] and getting excited at some of the shit.
[1688] Well, it's interesting because I don't disagree with you on everything, and I love you as a person.
[1689] You're a great guy.
[1690] I like you a lot.
[1691] I always happy to see you.
[1692] But yet you and I here get a little heated talking about this stuff.
[1693] But this is politics.
[1694] This is how divisive politics are.
[1695] Even a person like me. But I would never, I would never, fucking, I would never leave here going, I don't want to do that show again.
[1696] I hate Joe Ross.
[1697] I think this is great.
[1698] We've known each other for, we've known each other for 30 years.
[1699] Yeah.
[1700] You know, it's not, that's not the problem.
[1701] What I'm saying is, I'm just using it as example of how divisive politics are.
[1702] Oh, absolutely.
[1703] When people talk about things.
[1704] No. You know I mean?
[1705] A lot of people are, right?
[1706] Yes.
[1707] Yeah.
[1708] I'm not afraid of it.
[1709] A lot of people are afraid of bad vibes and bad feelings.
[1710] And this is one of the things, but this is one of the things that makes people toe the line.
[1711] Right.
[1712] The fear of this kind of, like, you don't want that from inside your party.
[1713] So you start using they and them.
[1714] you start thinking that everyone should be able to use any bathroom that they feel like they identify with, you start going along the line.
[1715] It's one of the more interesting things about politics is that if you tell me that you are Republican, I can kind of guess your stance on God, I can kind of guess your stance on being pro -life, pro -choice, second amendment rights, it's like all those things sort of fall in line.
[1716] And it's very interesting.
[1717] It's very interesting how you sort of adopt, not you, but people, sort of adopt a whole group of things when you decide you're a Republican or you decide you're a Democrat.
[1718] Right.
[1719] I don't, but see I don't think I fall into that.
[1720] How do you feel about guns?
[1721] Do you got any of them?
[1722] What?
[1723] Got any guns?
[1724] Yeah.
[1725] How many got?
[1726] One.
[1727] Just one?
[1728] Yeah.
[1729] I'm not a big gun guy.
[1730] As far as abortion.
[1731] I'm not, I don't want to say pro -choice, but I'm not pro -life one of the big reasons is if you like i got a dad who's dying of alzheimer watching them it's the saddest thing if i could kill him tomorrow and put him out of his misery i would i think you could take him to oregon the states that allow that there's states that allow people to um i think can i go over state lines with them is it like taking a teenage girl over stale no there was a girl who was dying of cancer who uh went to oregon for that very reason.
[1732] Yeah, their, Oregon is one of those, I want to, I might be saying it wrong, but I think the idea is a right to a dignified death.
[1733] No, you're right.
[1734] Just read about it.
[1735] Yeah.
[1736] Look, man, the idea that you're supposed to just keep staying alive until your fucking heart stops beating when you're a horrible pain.
[1737] Silly.
[1738] It's, it's evil.
[1739] You can't, don't do it to your dog.
[1740] I had to put my dog down.
[1741] I've had them for 13 years.
[1742] I had to put him down because you couldn't walk place you know they actually came to my house actually and they put them down sad shit but but you can't do that for a 98 year old man who's falling apart you have to let him eventually stop breathing right you know it's which is sad all the rights you go out the window that should be your first right it's your goddamn life yeah so that's why i couldn't be like pro choi pro you know pro life or whatever uh and that and i got girls pregnant when i was younger and i was glad there was a Planned Parenthood, whatever it was.
[1743] The guy in the alley with a stick.
[1744] I think his name was Dave.
[1745] So I don't, but in showbiz Joe, you know what is in showbiz, because this is a pretty liberal business.
[1746] If you're like, if you're right on two of ten issues, you're like a fucking Nazi, you know I mean?
[1747] Well, I get called alt -right adjacent.
[1748] It's my favorite.
[1749] Oh, my God.
[1750] They keep coming up with.
[1751] Well, you can't call me all right because I'm pretty left -wing on most things.
[1752] Yeah.
[1753] So they call me alt -right adjacent.
[1754] Jason, probably because I have people like you on.
[1755] Now I'm going to be more alt -right adjacent.
[1756] Because you, isn't that silly?
[1757] You have me on to, you know, your listeners probably, you know, like, you're like, listen to this guy.
[1758] I don't agree with anything.
[1759] That should be a feather in your cap, and they're going to hold that against you.
[1760] Yeah, it's weird.
[1761] Well, you know, it's not rational.
[1762] But again, it's people trying to have an effect on you.
[1763] They're trying to have an effect.
[1764] They're trying to make some waves, trying to do something.
[1765] They're writing blogs.
[1766] or creating videos but they're doing it to try to put pressure on you it's interesting though it's weird from a psychological perspective you're looking at it from the outside you know it's it's disconcerting when it's happening to you but when you can step back and look at it like it's interesting it's like these systems are opposing each other and they're trying to figure out where the weaknesses are and how to push to affect the other side yeah and it's not and it's not just left right You know, it's bigger than that.
[1767] So, you know, what was the book I read?
[1768] What's the place where they go to meet every year?
[1769] Bohemian Grove.
[1770] Bilderberg Group.
[1771] That was one of my favorite books, the truth about the Bilderberg group.
[1772] And what goes on there and the powerful people that meet and people always say, there's probably 10 guys in a room that run the whole fucking, well, okay, but you show me them.
[1773] Until then, I'll stay in the left -right fight and have fun.
[1774] Right.
[1775] The idea is that there's 10 guys that control everything, and they don't give a fuck if it's left or right.
[1776] They're just about money.
[1777] Yeah, but the rock of the fellas were involved.
[1778] But it's weird.
[1779] That was really creepy.
[1780] They planned shit out decades ahead.
[1781] Yeah, they plan out on education.
[1782] Yeah.
[1783] Decades ahead, though.
[1784] And it comes true.
[1785] Like they write a sitcom script that lasts for 15 years with plot points.
[1786] That book was incredible.
[1787] credible i can't remember the author's name but um yeah but i don't i don't mind i used to sit at that table at the comedy cell that's how tough crowd came about me and patrice yelling at each other about racial shit tough crowd was a great fucking show but i really am worried that you couldn't have a show like that i know you should be now now let me ask you and i'm not taking left right but who would be to blame for that that that's why i lean right and i think and you do in some areas.
[1788] You're in a, I mean, you're an artist.
[1789] You're a stand -up.
[1790] I cannot be, I cannot vote with a party that is for censorship and for group think.
[1791] Did we ever find out what's going on with Dennis Prager?
[1792] Did we get a line on that?
[1793] Is that still bothering you?
[1794] No, no, it does bother me because I like the guy.
[1795] He's great.
[1796] I don't agree with him on a lot of things, but he seems like a very nice guy and I like Adam.
[1797] I do too, both those guys.
[1798] There's a lawsuit.
[1799] He's bringing a lawsuit that they think it's going to go a long way.
[1800] There's, because they were labeling his show as hate speech.
[1801] Maybe it's back up or whatever, but I know that story.
[1802] You can find that anywhere.
[1803] There's a real concern that the ideologies behind these tech companies all go in one direction and they have the overwhelming control of the narrative because of the fact that they're all, we're getting all of our information.
[1804] Most people are getting it on their phones.
[1805] Most people are getting a lot of their media on their phones.
[1806] The Netflix said something like 50 % of the people that watch my special watch it on a phone.
[1807] That's amazing.
[1808] I mean, that's crazy.
[1809] The people are, so all this stuff is coming from these tech companies.
[1810] Doesn't that, then that kind of bother you that it's the phone?
[1811] Because when I hear that, not that it matters with my specials, but when I picture somebody watching something on phone, you don't have their full attention.
[1812] They're doing other things.
[1813] You know what I mean?
[1814] As opposed to sitting in front of their computer and the TV.
[1815] They kind of bug you.
[1816] You put all that work into it and they're on the suburb.
[1817] watching it and then i don't pay attention to when i can't control i don't make me nuts yeah gotta get over that that's what the mushrooms come in i well i'm gonna have to try though i'll give you a little one i'll give you a little one just a one's not today i got to drive to san diego oh it's perfect me in traffic yeah well you're on mushrooms what time is your show i know i'm fucking gonna be what time is your show uh 7 30 it's full i pulled it up on ways it says if i leave it three it's four hours oh you better leave it too then it's almost you're kicking me out of here no what did i say wrong you didn't say anything wrong but no i just drove there last week for brenn shop especially did you shot a showtime special how long it took me five and a half hours to get down there took me fucking forever i didn't want to i wasn't bringing up before the show i thought i saw you got a show there tonight my manager's my man my manager's thought he's doing my favor well just pull it up in google just go put it up on ways right now yeah well google do it do it too if you just google uh i'm away where is the gig where you're at uh comedy palace hey ladies don't punch him you know you know where he is don't show up i know you're gonna throw that my fucker you're racist piece of shit you fucking sexist you hate women feminism is not cancer oh it is it's a fucking it's a uterine cancer it's the future females are the future the future's feminine i'll take my life tonight that's the case that one Filthy whores.
[1818] Anyways.
[1819] Fucking hairy, thick ankle girls who can't get laid and they turn their anger.
[1820] Some of them are pretty.
[1821] They just...
[1822] I haven't met a stripper who's a feminist yet.
[1823] Oh, wow.
[1824] And I've talked to almost two of them in the last 40 years.
[1825] At 3 .45 right now.
[1826] Three hours and 45 minutes.
[1827] About 6 o 'clock.
[1828] Okay.
[1829] If you leave right now, you get there an hour before the show.
[1830] You kick me out, John, what I said.
[1831] No, no, no, no. I think...
[1832] Don't make me come across the table.
[1833] What I'm nervous about, and I'm just being honest, what I'm nervous about is that it's going to get exceedingly longer in the next hour.
[1834] Do you understand it's making me nervous that you're nervous?
[1835] I was the one I was going to have to get out of here a little early.
[1836] I thought you're going to go, you'll be fine.
[1837] You'll fucking get to.
[1838] Dude, I got down to San Diego on Saturday night.
[1839] I was delirious.
[1840] I've been smoking in fucking fumes.
[1841] The fumes from the highway because everything was stop and go the whole way.
[1842] You still might want to try to catch a flight if you can.
[1843] The only thing to save me was...
[1844] Oh, I'm not going to the fucking airport.
[1845] Run the joel.
[1846] I would rather walk.
[1847] Run the Jules is the only thing to save me. He's rocking out my car It was a horrible drive Yeah Well the whole world lives here Of course It's gonna be horrible No The real Americans Live in the middle, don't they Jesus land Yeah Fly over states Rather live in Ohio What do you like to work Where's like your favorite place to perform See that's where I'm gonna get you San Francisco I love San Francisco I'm kidding I haven't been there in years They loved me Why they do Because some people are happy That someone's like Bucking the church trend.
[1848] That's right.
[1849] Well, that's how it used to be, but that's how left wing and then fucking stupid they've turned into.
[1850] Bobby Slayton could have run for mayor of San Francisco, right?
[1851] Yeah.
[1852] Does he still play up there alone?
[1853] I have not seen Bobby in forever.
[1854] They loved me. I almost won that competition.
[1855] They had me at the punchline twice a year for like three years.
[1856] I love the punchline.
[1857] And then all of a sudden, you know, no go.
[1858] But I don't, uh, what's tough?
[1859] People always say they, I bet you you kill down south in Atlanta.
[1860] No, those people are, they all have guilt complexes about being racist and bigots.
[1861] So when you do something off color, They're laughing under their cowboy hats.
[1862] What about, like, Cleveland?
[1863] Cleveland's a tough one for me. They don't have, like, I don't know, my sarcasm is almost too, they're almost too Midwest for me. You know what I mean?
[1864] Honest or good.
[1865] Really?
[1866] What about Columbus?
[1867] I don't do Columbus.
[1868] Why don't you do Columbus?
[1869] I don't know.
[1870] Artie Lang got in trouble for fucking doing black jokes there.
[1871] I don't do black jokes.
[1872] I'm just saying.
[1873] I don't know.
[1874] So Artie Lang got in trouble there So you're like, oh, we'll scratch that one off the list too dangerous A black prom, a black bouncer complained Because he did a black joke I'm like, oh, that sounds like a great club Yeah Which club is this?

[1926] What about Texas?
[1927] Do you like work in Texas?
[1928] Yes.
[1929] I got to be honest, I haven't been to these places in a while, but yes.
[1930] You don't go to Texas?
[1931] No, I did.
[1932] I was in Dallas.
[1933] And some of the jokes that make people cringe elsewhere were getting rounds of applause.
[1934] In Dallas.
[1935] Anytime I said Jew, just, you know, not in a hateful way.
[1936] But, you know.
[1937] Maybe you say Jew and it's not a hateful way.
[1938] It sounds hateful.
[1939] It does sound.
[1940] Isn't that weird way?
[1941] Louis does a bit about that I used to ask Louis when we lived together I go how can we first move to New York I said I hear people saying yeah he's a Jew or whatever and nobody gets mad and stuff because in Boston if somebody said yeah that fucking Jew but Dallas was great for me Dallas is great Houston Houston's great Austin's great Texas is the shit I did an album in Houston Austin on Do you do it at the laugh stop in River Oaks I did an album Is it there no more?
[1942] No, it's now.
[1943] That was, apparently the building is still there that?
[1944] Yeah.
[1945] What is it now?
[1946] They use it sometimes, like they'll have shows there sometimes, I think.
[1947] Someone had something there for a while.
[1948] I don't know the full story, but that was one of the greatest clubs ever.
[1949] Laft stop and River Oaks.
[1950] Remember that crazy dude was running it?
[1951] The fuck's his name?
[1952] The fuck's his name.
[1953] Bald guy.
[1954] Yes.
[1955] Mark?
[1956] Yes.
[1957] Yeah, yeah.
[1958] He had an Italian last name, oddly enough.
[1959] Joey knew him real well.
[1960] real well.
[1961] I forgot about that, dude.
[1962] Yeah.
[1963] Yes, and that was Bill Hicks.
[1964] Yeah.
[1965] They had a fucking legit open mic too.
[1966] Open mic in the fucking...
[1967] Yeah, in the front bar.
[1968] And it was legit, like good comics.
[1969] I watched it.
[1970] These kids are open mics.
[1971] Some about Houston, right?
[1972] Yep.
[1973] Houston is a very eclectic city.
[1974] It's really different.
[1975] It's not what people think of when they think of Houston.
[1976] They think of like cowboy hats and oil.
[1977] No. It's not.
[1978] It's very diverse.
[1979] There's a lot going...
[1980] It's very urban.
[1981] There's a lot of cool shit going on.
[1982] I'm in Houston, very artistic.
[1983] I'm a big fan.
[1984] Yeah.
[1985] Same like, you know, people always go, you must kill an Atlanta and shit.
[1986] I'm like, no, they're PC.
[1987] They're, cosmopolitan areas, for the most part.
[1988] Yeah, you don't kill in Atlanta?
[1989] Well, I can kill if I want to.
[1990] But some of the shit that you think, but some of the stuff you think would kill, you know, they get to, it's like, yeah, yeah, even for us down here.
[1991] Right.
[1992] But, you know, cosmopolitan areas is more, you know.
[1993] What about Phoenix?
[1994] Phoenix is a good Phoenix is good Phoenix is good That's a great spot There's a few great spots If you didn't live In New York Where would you live?
[1995] For comedy purpose Is it just For life and comedy?
[1996] For life and comedy Yeah Burlington Vermont Really?
[1997] No I'm kidding If I could be up there With fucking Ben and Jerry No I would On Bernie's door It's a Boy It has to involve comedy Probably Texas Really Yeah Somewhere My brother lived Outside of Dallas And he loved it That's great If you have money, you could have seven castles Oh, seven I don't want seven Too many to look after Folks, you should see the place We're in doing Joe's show Yeah The gym outside's worth That's a nice gym I like Texas I'm a big fan of Texas I'd live in Texas I think I'd live in Colorado first though Yeah Yeah weed Not just weed mountains You like them huh I love the way What it does for you There's something about being around mountains that it um i was actually reading something about this that there's an actual thing that happens to people when you're faced with immense natural beauty that it diminishes your ego and yourself and it puts people in you know what you're called a more spiritual perspective being around mountains it's humbling sure you around them it's as beautiful it's like the best looking art you could ever see it's like a gorgeous mountain with some green hills and the sun coming out of the clouds It's as good to look at as anything that's ever existed.
[1998] Like, I'm not very religious.
[1999] I don't know.
[2000] I haven't made it my mind.
[2001] But when I see stuff like that is when I get kind of...
[2002] Do you want to make up your mind?
[2003] I got something right here for you.
[2004] What is that?
[2005] Mushrooms.
[2006] I know.
[2007] That's exactly what they're for.
[2008] Come on, bro.
[2009] How about Joe?
[2010] Can imagine if I took these on the Indy show before?
[2011] Just take a little one like this.
[2012] No, fuck that.
[2013] nobody's got to get hurt just a little one Jamie do you do that I don't want to be giggling in the car on the way down throwing up on myself it'll be fine what's it too what's gonna happen I want to get out of here before it takes effect that's gonna get me in a fucking some type of scissors lock it should be legal I believe that it would make people mellow the fuck out right would open that third eye man he would do something really good for people the problem is you forget you take it sometimes you know like an hour and a half lady You're like, why am I so weird?
[2014] Oh, okay.
[2015] Yeah, I don't want to be that far on my own head.
[2016] That's scary.
[2017] Have you ever done the float tank?
[2018] No. You want to do that?
[2019] Well, I can't.
[2020] I can't have float the fucking San Diego.
[2021] I should go down there in the raft like everybody else does.
[2022] Last time I ran into you.
[2023] I am so nervous that you get nervous about being making my show.
[2024] Do you understand?
[2025] Yeah, I think we're going to get you out of here in about 15 minutes.
[2026] That's what I think is the right move.
[2027] Is that all right?
[2028] Yeah, I think that's the right move.
[2029] Maybe 10.
[2030] You guys got me really fucking nervous.
[2031] I wish I wasn't, but at least you have Ways.
[2032] Ways will put you on some weird fucking funky backcountry routes.
[2033] It'll cut 20 minutes out of it.
[2034] I'll end up in Mexico.
[2035] You'll be fine.
[2036] Very close to Mexico, but super conservative.
[2037] That's what's interesting about San Diego.
[2038] I used to, I know why?
[2039] My first album, I did in La Jolla.
[2040] Military.
[2041] Yes.
[2042] It's all military down there.
[2043] Yeah.
[2044] Safe as fuck.
[2045] Maybe I'll have one of those guys at my show tonight.
[2046] People have said to me like, where would you live in a military town?
[2047] Like, yes.
[2048] That's a good place to live.
[2049] You're going to have gyms for sure.
[2050] You're definitely going to have gun ranges.
[2051] When you say that, does that when they throw you into the alt -right adjacent category?
[2052] Stuff like that.
[2053] Probably, yeah.
[2054] I mean, the American flag behind me probably contributes to that too.
[2055] Oh, my God, how horrible.
[2056] You're a fucking extremist Joe.
[2057] What next to the Constitution?
[2058] Decolonizing.
[2059] That's one of my favorite things.
[2060] Decolonizing.
[2061] You've been paying attention to that expression.
[2062] People want to decolonize certain things.
[2063] Like what?
[2064] Oh, like hairstyles and shit.
[2065] decolonize a hair style?
[2066] Yeah, yeah, you're not, yeah, there was a guy who got kicked off of a show.
[2067] Is he the mushrooms talking already?
[2068] No, no, no, no. There's a guy who got kicked off of a show.
[2069] He was, um, he was on a show, uh, I think it was in Montreal, and he had, uh, he had dreadlocks on.
[2070] And it was this, he's apparently gender fluid, which I guess means, I dabbled in that.
[2071] Yeah, you can go back and forth between being a man and a woman, but he does have dreadlocks.
[2072] And they kicked him off the show because he's a white guy with dreadlocks.
[2073] And he defended.
[2074] their position and one of the phrases they used was about decolonizing specific hairstyles and taking them away from white people and giving them back to the people later.
[2075] Oh, that's sort of appropriation is what they're accused.
[2076] Cultural appropriation.
[2077] Hairstyles.
[2078] I'd like to go with dreads as a 57 -year -old Italian guy.
[2079] You'd be weird.
[2080] You'd be aware with treads.
[2081] I'd get famous just from that.
[2082] That and a white goatee.
[2083] Colin Quinn says I should wear a black He says I'm gonna A turtleneck Steve Jobs A black turtleneck with yellow lightning bolts And call myself Don Carrado Why?
[2084] He's just being funny I heard he has an amazing new show That guy I watch him work it out man It's all about politics It's about what we're talking about About red versus blood It's so timely And shit And you know He's a craftsman And I watch him.
[2085] The fat black pussycat, I'd go on sometimes.
[2086] I have a show up to his.
[2087] What is the fat black pussy cat?
[2088] You'd fucking love it.
[2089] It's right around the corner from the comedy seller.
[2090] It's got a real bohemian feel to it.
[2091] People are sitting in couches.
[2092] There's lamps.
[2093] It holds about 75 people.
[2094] Collin was, of course, quick enough and smart enough to say, I'm using this every night to work shit out.
[2095] And people know, you can say, look, I'm only charging your $5 because I'm going to be working new stuff out.
[2096] But you would love it.
[2097] It's kind of a bohemian.
[2098] feel to it and um it's and they give you the door not that that effect has anything to do with you but um but it's great it's it's uh you know you do an hour of your i smoke wow sometimes um it's so fun it's so uh again it's like 75 seats is a little bit alcony it's very attractive so new york has some weird little clubs man it's really interesting how new york has it because guys are just hopping around like that i never when i lived in new york I could never afford to live in the city.
[2099] So I lived in New Rochelle.
[2100] And when I did gigs, I was like, well, I could work in town and do 10 minutes or 15 minutes.
[2101] Or I could just go on the road and do a gig in Connecticut or do a gig in Jersey and make actual money.
[2102] And so I always did that.
[2103] So even when I lived in New York, I hardly ever worked in New York.
[2104] Yeah, I don't as much anymore.
[2105] I used to, you know, I used to go to the comedy cell every night.
[2106] But Louis made that place world famous.
[2107] Yeah.
[2108] And it's not, it used to be a room where you could work shit out and take your time.
[2109] but now it's you know it's a fucking tourist it's packed it's still a great club and I but I feel like you'll grow that I don't want to do I don't want to go on stage unless I'm doing at least 40 minutes right right you know I mean I gotta get something done 15 minutes sets don't that's why I still do the fat black pussy cat which is such a great thing um so look at that nice yeah that's it that looks big you know it always looks bigger from a picture It's tiny.
[2110] That's like from a, that's from the balcony up there.
[2111] So is it like the, uh, the belly room at the store?
[2112] It's smaller, smaller than that.
[2113] Really?
[2114] Oh, yeah.
[2115] Way smaller than that.
[2116] It's way smaller than that.
[2117] The store is 70 people upstairs.
[2118] So it's basically the same.
[2119] Oh, the one way up to me. Yeah, yeah, the little one.
[2120] Not the original room.
[2121] I was thinking of the original.
[2122] Yeah.
[2123] Yeah.
[2124] Yeah.
[2125] It's, it's, you'd fucking love it.
[2126] And people are sitting in couches and shit.
[2127] Wow.
[2128] It's, it's really cool.
[2129] And Nome who runs the, he couldn't be nice.
[2130] you know and uh that's the only one i really do in the city really yeah i'm like you i'd rather go to governors or somewhere else and do some real time governor has a great club yeah the other thing about um doing um like clubs where there's a lot of people on where you only do in 15 minutes the good thing about it is that it's not your crowd so you have to make people laugh they're there just to see comedy they're not just to see nick de paolo right like if you go to you know how that happens to some guys they develop their crowd and then they kind of lose their edge Yes.
[2131] Fucking, it's scary, right?
[2132] Last time I saw you on stage, I walked into Carolines.
[2133] I was just in town for something, and you were on stage.
[2134] It was a late show.
[2135] And you were doing some fucking show about Katrina.
[2136] A joke about Katrina, that they spelled help wrong on the roof.
[2137] You know how many people die because they couldn't spell help?
[2138] Guy looking down from a helicopter says, hep.
[2139] Yeah.
[2140] I said, if you want hep, just step in that waddy you standing.
[2141] I was fucking crying.
[2142] And I'm like, Nick is just still swinging from the hip the same way.
[2143] That's my favorite, Joe.
[2144] That stage is still one of my favorites in the country.
[2145] I don't do Carolines.
[2146] Do you know the problem with Carolines, though, is when they reduce the stage down to the size of a fucking shoe box?
[2147] But on, you're absolutely right.
[2148] It's adjustable.
[2149] Yeah.
[2150] But on a, like, on a Tuesday, a Wednesday night with like 60, 70 people in there.
[2151] Oh, it's amazing.
[2152] It is my favorite.
[2153] I was so comfortable because I played it so much when I first moved to New York.
[2154] I could stay up there for three hours.
[2155] I got so much done.
[2156] I wrote half specials on that stage by doing like Tuesday nights for a year.
[2157] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[2158] That's where you get it done.
[2159] Yeah, right.
[2160] You're right.
[2161] Like 60 people in the crowd, fucking around.
[2162] Isn't that not the fucking, I did some little place up in Canada, Niagara Falls, the corner comedy club.
[2163] I mean, a real hole in the wall.
[2164] shitty tables and, you know, fucking just cheesy.
[2165] Had the best time in my life.
[2166] Well, when a place is big, then it becomes a show.
[2167] And you have to do your act.
[2168] Yeah.
[2169] Yeah.
[2170] Yeah.
[2171] You have to work tight.
[2172] Yeah.
[2173] Yeah.
[2174] Which stifles creativity.
[2175] Yeah.
[2176] That's what one of the reasons why Ari, when he does a store, he'll sign up for like late night and he'll get on like a 1245 or some shit like that and there's 20 people there.
[2177] And I always say that that's like truth serum.
[2178] Because if you do your act in front of 20 people, you know what sucks.
[2179] Like there's no no confusing what sucks.
[2180] It's right in front of you.
[2181] That's right.
[2182] That's right.
[2183] You feel the terribleness of your material.
[2184] You don't need 250 people tell you suck It takes four couples You're paying attention But you feel it Like you can kind of song and dance your way Through a couple of hundred people That's right Because even yeah you're exactly right A barometer Always said that Give me just double figures Give me 15 to 20 Yes That is enough Right?
[2185] It's great to work out material Of course It's great to cut out all the horse shit In your act You know Yeah because if there's only 15 people in the room And seven of them don't like the joke oh you feel it yeah you know the 15 if someone's sitting there with the cross arms staring you down like yikes that's where the work gets done yeah yeah i hate i used to hate playing carolines and this is ironic but this is when i was you know had comedy central specials and i was kind of hot and i would sell out carolines i would hate it though like two shows on a saturday night because it's packed and i know i have something called the asshole quotient for every 20 people in a club this one asshole so if there was like 250 you know somebody do the math so you got more assholes yeah i always that was my rule so you have to work fast and tight to keep their attention but right as opposed to taking your time on a tuesday night in front of 60 people and the real funny comes out yeah yeah when you say shit in between your proven bits yes there's the gold yeah right yeah it comes out of nowhere it's like it opens up when you and you put yourself in that frame of mind too when there's only 30 people you know midnight or something like that you're putting yourself in a different frame of there's no pressure what what can Now, let me ask you that.
[2186] Can you do that in front of a full room?
[2187] I can't put myself in that mentality.
[2188] It's hard.
[2189] Because you have to work differently.
[2190] I feel like I'm being a pussy and giving in.
[2191] But I know damn well, if I work as slow as I do in front of 40, 50 people, in front of 250 or 300, somebody's going to get anxious in the audience.
[2192] At least that's my, I, that mentality, like you said, when you show up with 50 people, it's almost like fucking around somebody's living room.
[2193] Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[2194] And I want that feeling in front of 300 people or 400 people.
[2195] Always different.
[2196] You know, we were talking about that last night that, like, when you do a large theater, it's so much different than doing a club.
[2197] Even if you do a pack club of 500 people, and then you move to a place that's got 5 ,000 people, it's just a different feeling.
[2198] It's a totally different feeling.
[2199] You have to do the air quotes act.
[2200] You got to do your act, you know?
[2201] 5 ,000.
[2202] Yeah.
[2203] It's weird.
[2204] Large numbers are weird.
[2205] Yeah.
[2206] Timing's different.
[2207] You can't hammer the punch lines like you can in a club.
[2208] Like in a club, you go punch.
[2209] You remember Gavin would hit a punchline after punchline.
[2210] tag tag tag tag tag and those tags would just have everybody roll with well if he was doing 10 ,000 people that those tags would get drowned out in the laughter of all the people around you I tried tagging when I did like my first tonight show I tried tagging you know and like you said got lost other than Burbank it's Burbank people whoever but you don't tag like you're in a club you know yeah I remember learning that lesson TV yeah but you're absolutely right Gavin was rapid fire and I remember watching him at Nix.
[2211] I came in when I first thought of comedy and I step in the door, he's on stage and I'm like, is he dying?
[2212] Everybody was doubled over in the audience.
[2213] I thought he was fucking dying.
[2214] All of a sudden, you know, you couldn't hear any laughed at all of a sudden a huge roar.
[2215] I mean, because he would tag, like you said, tag a joke 11 times.
[2216] Yeah.
[2217] And people are still dying from the last.
[2218] They were literally bent over.
[2219] Nothing was coming out of it.
[2220] I'm like, I mean, he was shaking the rafter.
[2221] They couldn't breathe.
[2222] Yeah.
[2223] I think we got a chance to see some guys that are probably some of the best comics of all time and people don't know.
[2224] You know, I think between Sweeney and Gavin and Lenny and those guys that we saw when they were in their prime and the 80s.
[2225] Yeah, Kenny.
[2226] When we were coming up, those guys were in their prime and when we were young, we got a chance to see, I think, some of the greatest of all time.
[2227] No doubt about it.
[2228] But they got stuck.
[2229] Well, the guys that Nick's put them on a contract for a while to remember.
[2230] They gave them good money and Coke.
[2231] Yeah, they...
[2232] they were making I remember Gab telling me they were making three grand a weekend and not having to leave your city making road money and like you said some parks on the side free booze all that yeah all that they all live great did they ever but in the long run you know well in the long run it was a problem but we got to see some crazy fucking I remember some of those nights at Nick's comedy style but you watch those guys I remember Sweeney killing so hard.
[2233] You almost wanted to quit comedy.
[2234] I know.
[2235] There's no way I could do that.
[2236] Well, I had to follow the fucking guy.
[2237] Gavin would, in Boston back then, you know, Don Gavin's show, he would be the host.
[2238] Remember?
[2239] No, Gavin would be the host.
[2240] Yeah, he would start off the show.
[2241] Yeah.
[2242] That's a different thing about Boston too, right?
[2243] That's right.
[2244] Like, if you did the Nick DiPaulo show at Nick's Comedy Stop, you would start off the show.
[2245] That's right.
[2246] And what was crazy, it was great for young comic, but I had to follow Gavin.
[2247] Doing a tight 15.
[2248] Jesus.
[2249] So it made me, You know, fucking, you had to be able to hold your own.
[2250] Yeah.
[2251] And they talk at 100 miles an hour, plus they're coked up.
[2252] And they're really funny.
[2253] They're really funny, and they got heavy Boston accents, and they're big men.
[2254] They're, like, big imposing people.
[2255] Oh, yeah.

[2266] Angry fucking Irish kids with their blonde eyebrows.
[2267] You fucking suck.
[2268] Yeah, I remember that.
[2269] That was a tough room if you were having a bad set.
[2270] Well, they would do it to the people on purpose.
[2271] They would do it to anybody from out of town that had a big attitude in a Hollywood resume.
[2272] They did it to Billy Crystal.
[2273] They lit Billy Crystal up in that room.
[2274] Well, that I understand.
[2275] Yeah, well, you got to do what you got to do.
[2276] They did it to everybody, though.
