0:42
Williams! Hell yeah, cheers, we need
0:44
to insert cheers here. From turning
0:47
personal challenges into unapologetic stand-up, just
0:49
saying the things most people are
0:51
too scared to even think. Brad's
0:53
built a career on breaking. boundaries.
0:56
We're talking wild gigs, joke that
0:58
never made it to the stage,
1:00
and what is really likely married
1:02
to a Ninja. Get ready for
1:05
some laughs, some troops, and a
1:07
whole lot of rule-breaking baby. Thank
1:13
you for being here. I really appreciate
1:15
this. The first time that we get
1:17
to really meet each other, even though
1:19
it's in China up since 2020, maybe
1:21
something like that. That's right. Back
1:23
when I raised accidentally a bunch
1:25
of money for a kid that
1:27
was being bullied, that the internet
1:30
then said was 40 and a
1:32
billionaire. What the heck? Was that actually true?
1:34
Yeah, I saw the internet kind of turn.
1:36
Okay, so I'll go back. So if
1:38
you remember in 2020, before the pandemic,
1:40
there was a child, actual child from
1:42
Australia named Caden Bales, and he had
1:45
his dwarfism, and he was being bullied,
1:47
and his mom took a video, and
1:49
he was crying, was really heartbreaking. It
1:51
was heartbreaking. And I just said, hey,
1:53
I want to raise some money to
1:56
send the kid to Disneyland, and I
1:58
put up a go fund me. And
2:00
then I went to bed and
2:02
then the next day I have
2:04
Hugh Jackman in my D.M. That's pretty
2:07
bad. Right here. That was interesting
2:09
and we ended up raising a half
2:11
million dollars and we were going crazy
2:13
and you contacted me to try to
2:16
get him into WrestleMania and everything like
2:18
that. It was very generous of you.
2:20
At the end of the day him
2:23
and his family ended up refusing the
2:25
money and they ended up dividing it
2:27
to a bunch of anti-bullying charities. Oh,
2:30
that's great. It's great. But then the
2:32
internet found like one photo of him
2:34
in front of a Lamborghini and said
2:37
he's rich. He's a dwarf, he
2:39
can't even drive. We say things and
2:41
some people take things and go nuts.
2:43
Some people get mad. A third pedal.
2:46
It's all complicated. So yeah, that was
2:48
my controversy is that I raised money
2:50
for a bullied kid that the internet
2:53
thought was 50 and a billionaire. Okay,
2:55
but is that your biggest controversy or
2:57
is that other controversies? Yeah, let's go.
3:00
I think so. I don't know. We're
3:02
comedians. We say things and some people
3:04
take things and go nuts. Some people
3:07
get mad, but I'm telling you
3:09
and this is maybe not. good for
3:11
a podcast called rule breakers but Really,
3:13
there's a lot of communities out there
3:16
that are like, it's canceled culture. We
3:18
can't say, yeah, no, we're good. If
3:20
you could look at a bunch of
3:23
comedians that have been canceled, it's like,
3:25
oh, it's Shane Gillis, it's, it's OCC,
3:27
it's Dave Chappelle, they're all doing arenas.
3:30
So by all means, cancel me, please.
3:32
Do you think you have a little
3:34
bit of privilege being a smaller person?
3:37
Some people don't like dwarfs, I
3:39
don't know, you're just not supposed to
3:41
say a midget. Okay, do you think
3:43
that when it comes to your jokes
3:46
and people being sort of sensitive, you
3:48
can be able to get away with
3:50
it a little bit more? I do,
3:53
because, okay, so you have two pit
3:55
bulls and then you have a chihuahua.
3:57
So. the Chihuahua can get away with
4:00
a lot more than the pit bulls.
4:02
That's true. If you're on a walk
4:04
and your pit bull bites someone, well
4:07
now you got to call animal
4:09
control, there's a whole thing, but if
4:11
the Chihuahua bites someone, it's like, ah,
4:13
it's a Chihuahua, you're fine. And I
4:16
feel like that's kind of how it
4:18
is with my comedy where. If someone
4:20
of average height says something, then it's
4:23
like, oh man, but then if I
4:25
say it, it's like, he's cute.
4:27
Yeah, he can get away with it.
4:29
It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's
4:32
fine. People saying like swear words or
4:34
something. Oh, it's just oh, come on.
4:36
Oh, you punched. There you go. I
4:39
was about like, let it fly. Let
4:41
the C word fly for you. But
4:43
with your comedy now in today's climate,
4:46
do you have today's climate. So I
4:48
always look to what is what is
4:50
my brand or what am I trying
4:53
to do with my comedy? Am I
4:55
trying to entertain? For some people
4:57
their comedy is very aggressive and that's
4:59
kind of what they're known for and
5:02
if they want to do that, awesome.
5:04
My thing is I want to make
5:06
sure you have a good time. I
5:09
want to make sure you have fun.
5:11
I don't care who you voted for,
5:13
I don't care what your beliefs are.
5:16
I want to make sure you have
5:18
fun at my shows. There are times
5:20
where I've actually rewritten jokes because I
5:23
was like, oh, that's too harsh and
5:25
that's not what... I want to
5:27
do. But that's my choice. I am
5:29
a vehement freedom of speech activist. So
5:32
freedom of speech should be not just
5:34
the speech that I agree with, but
5:36
also the speech that I don't agree
5:39
with. You should. So my last special
5:41
called Starfish, which is now streaming on
5:43
YouTube, there was a joke that I
5:46
made about the Bud Light trans spokesperson.
5:48
I had two versions of that joke.
5:50
The first version I wrote, I did
5:53
not like, it got a laugh. I
5:55
didn't like the laugh it got.
5:57
I did research on that. You said
5:59
something about the different laughs and that
6:02
there's aggressive loss. So the laugh I
6:04
got, the first version of the joke,
6:06
which I'll just tell it because it's
6:09
not online, the first version I wrote
6:11
was, oh, Bud Light should have a
6:13
trans spokesperson because, Bud Light, you tell
6:16
us it's beer. We're supposed to call
6:18
it beer. Okay. But is it actually
6:20
beer? That was the first version of
6:23
the joke. And then I said that
6:25
it got a laugh, but the
6:27
laugh was more like, yeah. Whoa. Okay.
6:29
Let me rewrite this. And I rewrote
6:32
it and the version that ended up
6:34
on Starfish. I actually like better. long
6:36
way of saying, yes, I do believe
6:39
that sometimes I can get away with
6:41
a little bit more because it's coming
6:43
from such an adorable source. So
6:45
your feet kick it up just then
6:48
do you like, oh yeah. Prop comedy
6:50
everybody. In the fact that my pants
6:52
don't cover my, yeah, I got a
6:55
little show and a little Rob Williams
6:57
leg right there. At the same time,
6:59
it's also where it's coming from. I
7:02
think if people look at my entire.
7:04
catalog or listen to an interview on
7:06
a podcast. They'll know I'm not trying
7:09
to hurt. That is not my idea.
7:11
Nothing's delicious. Yeah. I'm not trying to
7:13
start a rally where it's like,
7:16
yeah, we should be kicking them out.
7:18
Like, I'm not, I'm not that guy.
7:20
So yeah, dwarfs and rallies. They don't,
7:23
we don't do well in a rally,
7:25
A, podiums. Too high, I can't speak.
7:27
Anyway, but then like, it's the crowd
7:30
walking, I'm not good with that, I'm
7:32
too low, I don't do general admission,
7:34
too many farts. It's just right there.
7:37
I love that you're a person that...
7:39
cares about free speech like listen I'm
7:41
not left I'm not right or whatever
7:44
that obviously is a line where
7:46
what you can and can't say like
7:48
obviously I care more about how you
7:50
treat a waiter or a waitress than
7:53
how you voted yeah I really do
7:55
have you ever done a joke where
7:57
it's completely failed or have you like
8:00
Heckles? Great, you're like, I
8:02
mean, you get heckles, I
8:04
feel like you're in climate
8:06
right now. Like comedians that
8:08
you see on, like, Tiktok
8:10
comedians, I like to call them.
8:12
Sure. Their social that they put
8:14
up is all just heckle comedy,
8:17
pretty much. Which I'm not a
8:19
fan of. Right. Because then people
8:21
see it and they go, oh,
8:23
that's what stand-up is. Because of
8:25
you? One was because of me.
8:27
What are you doing up there?
8:30
The other was not. The one
8:32
that was because of me, I
8:34
did a joke how a lot of
8:36
people, this is like 15 years
8:38
ago, so a lot of people
8:40
used to confuse me for We Man
8:42
from Jackass. I saw that I'm dealing
8:45
with the beard. Yeah, yeah, and and
8:47
Dylan Hornswuggle and now Dinklage. It's like
8:49
there's always one. There's always one
8:51
dwarf for like Highlanders like there's
8:53
just one. You guys don't even look
8:55
alike though like none of you look like.
8:58
So I did a joke about how I'm
9:00
not We Man and how We Man's last
9:02
name is real last name is. Acuna and
9:04
I'm like so like he like he's
9:06
Mexican. I'm not Mexican. I said something
9:08
like a Mexican midget I said something
9:10
about I didn't even know they had
9:13
Mexican midgets how do they get over
9:15
the fence Did that and a guy
9:17
very drunk just stood up and yelled
9:19
at me fuck you. I'm not Mexican
9:21
and I was like I what we're
9:23
talking about you I'm not fucking Mexican
9:25
and then he started like coming towards
9:28
the stage and like trying to brawl
9:30
people and that's what yeah yeah that's
9:32
when the fans jumped in security jumped
9:34
in and it was like I did you kind
9:36
of like a wrestler yeah because people
9:38
get crazy in the crowd yeah that
9:40
was the one that was the one
9:42
that was I guess my fault even
9:44
though it was The other one, this
9:46
one was more fun. It was at
9:48
the Comedy Works in Denver, which is
9:50
maybe the best club in the country.
9:52
A guy's girlfriend in the audience
9:55
decided to reveal during my
9:57
show that she was cheating on him with
9:59
a friend. that
10:05
was
10:10
also
10:17
at
10:21
the
10:25
So anyway, one of the many
10:27
reasons why I feel like wrestlers
10:29
and comedians get along is the
10:31
mentality of the show must go
10:33
on. Yes. Oh yeah. You break
10:35
a leg? Okay, what's the finish?
10:38
Yeah, exactly. I've had buyer alarm
10:40
one time in Hartford Connecticut that
10:42
went on and then I had to,
10:44
but they wouldn't shut it off. They would
10:46
not shut it off. It was still going.
10:49
I had to continue with a
10:51
fire alarm going off. Yeah. And then
10:53
I had to, I was timing my
10:55
jokes, so the punch lines would go
10:58
after a burn, and then I would
11:00
like, and then the punch line. So
11:02
that was difficult. So yeah, it's just
11:04
the show must go on. You do,
11:07
you do any job long enough, you'll
11:09
get into any scenario imaginable, and you
11:11
learn. Yeah, you learn short though when
11:13
something starts going. Very offensive to say
11:16
that to a dwarf. Very very triggered
11:18
right now. I had everyone hold
11:20
up the cell phone lights and
11:23
then I didn't have a microphone
11:25
I just screamed at me dead
11:27
quiet. There was a blackout one
11:30
time I had everyone hold up
11:32
the cell phone lights and then
11:35
I didn't have a microphone I
11:37
just screamed at them. But like
11:39
when comedians get together we don't
11:42
talk about. We don't talk about.
11:44
played Master Square Garden and it
11:47
went great and I'm so awesome.
11:49
No, we get together, we talk
11:51
about the hell gigs, we talk about
11:53
the worst possible shows and then. The
11:55
offensive jokes that you get to say
11:57
with each other. And then how we
11:59
try them. despite of that. I imagine,
12:01
you know, I mean, coming up through
12:03
wrestling, you have hell gigs, you have
12:06
gigs in front of five people, right?
12:08
Oh, yeah. I mean, when I first
12:10
started, that's exactly how it was. Like,
12:12
my first match that I had, it
12:14
was in front of, like, eight. Eight.
12:16
Eight people, and then I got knocked
12:19
the fuck out, too. And I was
12:21
like, I love this. Yeah. In your
12:23
first match? In my first, oh, I
12:25
was a fucking, I was awful. I
12:27
was truly so bad. So I, uh,
12:29
something happened. I can't remember what it
12:31
was. I just remember being on my
12:34
back and like my leg doing this
12:36
in the air. Like as someone's pinning
12:38
me. Still talking about a match? Yeah.
12:40
So I'm on my back with my
12:42
legs in the air and I was
12:44
like I love this. Yeah, I love
12:47
it. You find you find something you
12:49
love and what's amazing is I'm sure
12:51
you get this too is when When
12:53
I describe to people what it is
12:55
to be a comedian and to travel
12:57
as many weeks of the year, that
13:00
I travel to be on as many
13:02
planes and to be in hotels and
13:04
all the mozzarella sticks, so many mozzarella
13:06
sticks. There's a lot of people just
13:08
goes, oh my God, that sounds like
13:10
a nightmare. If you describe to people
13:12
who aren't wrestlers, what it is to
13:15
be a wrestler, I'm sure a lot
13:17
of them are like, wait, that's what
13:19
it is. It doesn't have to be
13:21
for you, that's why I'm doing it,
13:23
and you're not. Yeah, exactly. Great, you
13:25
do whatever it is, you do, you
13:28
be a systems analyst. Totally fine. Have
13:30
you ever had like a weird interact?
13:32
I mean, we've all had weird interactions,
13:34
but is there a story where you're
13:36
like the stands out? Oh yeah. So
13:38
the one that stands out more than
13:41
others. I came back to my hotel
13:43
room. There was a woman in my
13:45
hotel room. Because we found out she
13:47
went to the front desk told the
13:49
front desk that she was my wife
13:51
But I we found out later that
13:53
she came she went to the front
13:56
desk told the front desk that she
13:58
was my wife and that she had
14:00
lost her hotel room key and she
14:02
knew a lot about me and they
14:04
were like cool you sound like a
14:06
wife he's fucking her tells and gave
14:09
her a key so she was just
14:11
waiting in my hotel room when I
14:13
got back and it was like hi
14:15
so what what do you do there
14:17
like what happened me be like who
14:19
fucked for you yeah and she's like
14:22
I just wanted to talk with him
14:24
and I'm just like cool slam the
14:26
door run downstairs run downstairs and be
14:28
like there's one in my hotel room
14:30
that is not a woman that I
14:32
wanted to be in my hotel room.
14:34
And that incident gave me so much
14:37
more respect for female comedians and what
14:39
they have to go through and female
14:41
wrestlers because it's like you have guys
14:43
that believe that they are in a
14:45
full-fledged relationship with you and have never
14:47
met. Oh, I have some stories, dude.
14:50
Like, just going back to the hotel,
14:52
which is, they give you a new
14:54
room, right? Did you go somewhere else?
14:56
New room, yeah, new room, the front
14:58
desk, the whole everything. The hotels, especially,
15:00
like, sometimes they would let the fans
15:03
call up to my room and shit.
15:05
The hotels, like, sometimes they would let
15:07
the fans call up to my room
15:09
and shit. So I'm like, like, five
15:11
hours. So we get to this like
15:13
little hotel and then it's in this
15:15
parking lot and then there's like a
15:18
dive bar on the other side of
15:20
it. So me and Foxy was like,
15:22
all right, let's go put our stuff
15:24
in the rooms and then we'll go
15:26
get a drink, little mine cap. Right.
15:28
So we're like, fuck. Yeah. And that's
15:31
the best part is like, you get
15:33
to have a little drinking. Finally, back
15:35
in the day. So then we're there
15:37
for maybe like and our maybe two
15:39
right and then we get back to
15:41
the hotel and there's police cars and
15:44
we're just like what the fuck is
15:46
going on you know and then I
15:48
get in and the front desk lady
15:50
was just like do you have a
15:52
wrestling like name or whatever or not
15:54
I was just like what do you
15:56
mean she was like Do you go
15:59
on to page by chance? And I'm
16:01
like, yeah, I do actually. She was
16:03
like, there's this crazed fucking man. He
16:05
apparently had followed us from the arena
16:07
to where we stopped. And he's running
16:09
through the hotel kicking people's doors and
16:12
shit like that trying to get to me.
16:14
So like the police and I'm taking them obviously and they
16:16
were like, like what do you want to do? The police
16:18
was like, do you want to go to a different hotel?
16:20
There's not another hotel for like hours away. So what we
16:22
did is I got put in a new room and then
16:24
the police had to stay there. It's just crazy. People don't
16:26
understand. When you're in the public eye, like yes, it's wonderful,
16:28
we're very grateful, we get to do wonderful things, we get
16:30
to travel, we get to meet new people, we get to
16:33
do what we get to do what we get to do
16:35
what we get to do what we get to do what we get
16:37
to do what we do what we love for,
16:39
right. a fucking crazy territory dude like it does
16:41
like I'm I'm at the point now where
16:43
I'm at the perfect level of fame I
16:45
don't want to get any more famous that's
16:48
the thing right like rich and famous like
16:50
no no oh my I cannot imagine you I
16:52
want to be right now like I
16:54
was just a knotsberry farm which the
16:56
theme park over yeah over here in
16:58
so cal brought brought the family, everyone
17:01
that came up to me was very
17:03
kind, my rule is with the family,
17:05
no photos, but they all understood, they
17:07
all understood, but then some of the
17:09
people were so nice that as soon
17:11
as like my wife and kid went
17:13
on a ride, I'd be like, okay
17:15
now you're good, now you're good, get
17:17
over here, you know, because these people
17:20
are the people that pay our bills,
17:22
so you always want to reward the
17:24
people that are really sweet, very
17:26
sweet, very nice. too much more
17:28
than I don't know. Well, you
17:30
are getting bigger and bigger and
17:32
bigger. Once again, very triggering
17:34
to say to a little
17:37
person. I'm not. Sorry. Geez,
17:39
you are horrible today. Oh
17:41
my God, fucking council for me
17:43
now. You've always done really well,
17:45
but it's like, it's got to
17:47
a point now where things are like
17:50
skyrocketing. It's pretty great. Yeah, and like
17:52
he just reached a million followers, which
17:54
you guys, get those things by posting
17:57
some things that we grind and stuff
17:59
like that. of course, but for a
18:01
man, it's like, it's a little bit
18:03
more difficult. So the fact that you
18:06
reached a million and like, it's a
18:08
big deal. I can't just throw a
18:10
pretty filter on my face, do one
18:12
of these and then like get Apolloers.
18:15
You're hilarious. Like me and the team
18:17
yesterday were going through like your Instagram
18:19
and stuff like that. And like people
18:21
love to watch you as well because
18:24
the viewership is high. noticed, at least
18:26
in comedy, is you kind of, the
18:28
fans you get are what you kind
18:30
of put out there. There's some people
18:33
that, okay, I'll use, I'll use this
18:35
as an example because he's a legend
18:37
and I, and everyone loves him, but
18:39
Davidel, back when he was on the
18:42
show, Insomniac, like his, and he'll tell
18:44
you this, the whole. culture the show
18:46
was late night drinking what are you
18:48
doing after hours so then his fans
18:51
would be late night drinking people were
18:53
on after hours and it was a
18:55
rough fan base for a bit now
18:57
he's reached such an amazing status that
19:00
he's doing like his fans are wonderful
19:02
and they get comedy yeah but yeah
19:04
so it's like you kind of get
19:06
out what you're putting out there so
19:09
what do you have so I get
19:11
a lot of families it's great because
19:13
I found out that I could Write
19:15
a clever joke on X or I've
19:18
been off X for a while. I'm
19:20
on threads now. Yeah, I'm a thread
19:22
guy. So I'll do a clever joke
19:24
and that'll get a couple of likes,
19:27
a couple of whatever and then I'll
19:29
just. post a photo of me and
19:31
the wife on a date night and
19:33
everyone would be like yes! Oh people
19:36
love that! They love like your personal.
19:38
Yeah, and like you obviously don't do
19:40
it often. I mean you do it
19:42
in some of your stand-up and stuff
19:45
like that right? You talk about your
19:47
wife which is awesome but like you
19:49
I have noticed that you're not so
19:51
like you don't throw out there all
19:54
the time right? No and if you
19:56
look on my Instagram page now if
19:58
I ever Oh, you want to talk
20:00
about crazy fan stories? Oh, go on.
20:03
This is, this is the one that
20:05
turned everything. There's a happy ending, don't
20:07
worry. That's what she said, thank you.
20:09
The reason why I put an emoji
20:12
over my daughter's face now is because
20:14
we had an incident where I was
20:16
not even there. I was on the
20:18
road doing something and my wife calls
20:21
me up and goes, was just at
20:23
a grocery store. And a woman saw
20:25
me and saw the kid and went,
20:27
that's Brad Williams baby, and ran up
20:30
and like tried to, no, pick her
20:32
up. No, oh, fuck, I would be
20:34
your ass. Sorry, don't, yeah. So that
20:36
was when we were like, oh. So
20:39
don't do that anymore. And you know,
20:41
I've chosen this life, so whatever consequences
20:43
come of it, that's my doing. There's
20:45
common sense here. Come on. Kids didn't
20:47
do that. Kids didn't choose to be
20:50
famous. So yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But when
20:52
you do sprinkle in that family, and
20:54
I think it's great that you cover
20:56
a face because it can get scary.
20:59
Like even just my niece and nephews.
21:01
I don't have kids my own, but
21:03
like my niece and nephews. He was
21:05
actually really great of not showing her
21:08
at all. Yeah, because people can be
21:10
like that. They think they know you,
21:12
they think they can touch you and
21:14
like, you know, like I'm, I don't
21:17
care, you can give me a hug
21:19
and stuff like that, right? But it's
21:21
just like, they don't have any, like,
21:23
there's no line to them in some
21:26
ways. So when it comes to your
21:28
kid, you're just like, I can't ever
21:30
happen to me in the future and
21:32
someone try to pick up my child.
21:35
Yeah. I would be like fucking throwing
21:37
hands. And the fact my wife didn't
21:39
kill her. Wait, wait, wait, wait. Okay,
21:41
we're talking about your wife right now.
21:44
Sure, sure, sure. I have a massive
21:46
fan of your wife now. Oh, because
21:48
before you were here, I obviously did
21:50
research and found out that she's, I
21:53
actually watched part of your stand up
21:55
where you explained, you know, like what
21:57
she is, she's a fucking ninja dude.
21:59
But she's also extremely private, so please
22:02
tell us about her. fourth dawn black
22:04
belt in Taekwondo. She has another black
22:06
belt in Upkido because as she's explained
22:08
to me, Taekwondo is a scoring kicking
22:11
martial art. So then she had to
22:13
get a black belt in Upkido, just
22:15
as she can kill people. So yeah,
22:17
she's like, there's some people that say
22:20
they're a martial artist and it's like,
22:22
I go to the YMCA and I
22:24
say Kia, that's not her. She's like
22:26
a like a ruthless ruthless, like. She's,
22:29
and I love being with someone
22:31
that has that discipline, because I know
22:33
how hard she had to work to
22:35
get there. She knows the value of
22:38
hard work. Also, I'm on the road
22:40
a bunch. So I like knowing if
22:42
someone breaks in the house, we got
22:44
two pit bulls and a ninja. We're
22:46
fine. Oh, yeah, dear. Hell yeah. And then
22:48
you were good. You were talking about how
22:50
private she is too. So you will
22:52
like, she only has like a couple.
22:55
Yeah, she's like all her social media
22:57
are set to private. I love it.
22:59
If you Google Brad Williams wife, the
23:01
photo that comes up is not her.
23:03
That's the woman in your hotel.
23:05
Yeah, that's what yeah. She's like, I
23:08
am, I am Brad Williams wife. We
23:10
have a lovely family. No. So
23:12
I love that. I love the
23:14
fact that it's tough to find
23:16
out because, you know, that's the
23:18
family life. That's, you know, separate
23:21
than the public persona. Right. And
23:23
I'm totally fine with that. I
23:25
like walking in the door and
23:27
now no one gives it. shit what
23:29
jokes I've told or how many tickets I sold. I'm just
23:31
husband and I'm just dad. I'm jealous of that point. That's
23:33
what I want one day. That's very like just someone that
23:36
is not on social media, doesn't care about social media, doesn't care what
23:38
the fuck you do. You know, they're just like, well, welcome home, I'm
23:40
fucking, clean the dishes. You know what I mean? Like, yeah, I keep
23:42
you humble. No, but like I love that. And that's, I love that.
23:44
I feel like, I feel like, I feel like you need, you need,
23:46
you need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you
23:48
need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you need,
23:50
you need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you
23:52
need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you need, you need,
23:54
you need, you need, you need, you have been in the
23:56
public eyes like what they do reflects on
23:58
you and vice versa. I do reflects on
24:00
them so it's like. Sometimes ego gets
24:03
involved. Oh, one person's getting a little
24:05
more famous. Right. It could be a little
24:07
tricky, you know, and especially for the
24:09
dudes because. Bigger egos. I know
24:11
a lot of, yeah, I know
24:13
that's happened a bunch of comics.
24:16
I start dating each other and
24:18
the woman gets a little more
24:20
famous and then the guy's like,
24:22
you can't shit where you eat.
24:24
Yeah, and the guy's like, hey,
24:26
you're gonna take me on the
24:29
road? The female comic's like, no.
24:31
Oh, so that calls like a
24:33
rift, probably, like a rift, probably,
24:35
there was no, like, bring me.
24:37
Like it was never, we never
24:39
had that because we were in
24:41
such like opposite fucking wealth. But
24:43
I did have an X where he
24:45
was a wrestler and there was like the jealousy
24:47
because I was doing a little bit more, oh
24:49
I just become a champion like, fuck you, you
24:52
know what I mean? It was like. It was
24:54
an issue and then ultimately we broke up because
24:56
there's just no fucking way and I said I
24:58
would never date arrest her again in my life.
25:00
Oh, there's no point. I dated a comedian once
25:03
and thankfully she's no longer a comedian so it's
25:05
not, I'm not like, I'm throwing her in jail.
25:07
No, no, not the one in jail. That's a
25:09
different X. Wait, can we talk about it? Oh,
25:11
I'll talk about it to some degree. Yeah. We
25:13
all have an X in our lives in our
25:15
lives in our lives that. I would say
25:18
wrecked us like broke us
25:20
down to the very bare
25:22
bones preach yeah someone thankfully
25:24
built us back up and
25:26
your friends family current loved
25:29
ones so but we all
25:31
had that X that wrecked
25:33
us the one that wrecked
25:35
me was this woman I
25:37
was I was obsessed I
25:40
was addicted bailed her out
25:42
of jail twice that's that's
25:44
not the red flag waiving
25:46
and I'm kind of
25:48
blind yeah recently found
25:50
out that she is
25:53
back in jail for
25:55
over 30 years for
25:57
trafficking, distributing, selling meth.
25:59
So. Yeah, I was dating breaking
26:01
bad. No, yeah. So now, yeah, so
26:03
now, yeah, so now when people say
26:05
like, oh, you know, your wife, she's
26:07
not very public. I'm like, great. Yeah,
26:09
because that's the other side of being
26:11
public is now, you know, there's also
26:14
they would do digging on your wife
26:16
and she wants to be private to
26:18
do it, but like, you guys are
26:20
fucking crazy law, law, dude. Yeah,
26:22
comedians, wrestlers, rock stars, we all
26:25
kind of. Roll in some circles and
26:27
sometimes they're not the best and I've
26:29
watched enough Dark Side of the ring
26:32
the same people did the dark
26:34
side of comedy and they did a
26:36
bunch of comedians too and I they
26:38
were really accurate I know some people
26:41
personally and I was like how
26:43
did they find that out? Oh I
26:45
need to watch that yeah so I've
26:47
seen enough of that to kind of
26:50
know where the now the downfalls are
26:52
so I try to stay away
26:54
from that. The weirdest thing was like,
26:56
I was picking my kid
26:58
up from school and her
27:01
teacher, her kindergarten teacher, it
27:03
was like, hey, so you just
27:05
got back from whatever the heck.
27:08
And I'm like, I. Did, how do you
27:10
know that? She goes, oh, I follow you on Instagram.
27:12
Like, don't follow me on Instagram. Oh, it
27:14
makes it weird. You're a kindergarten teacher. You
27:16
should be up late reading child psychology studies.
27:18
You shouldn't have a life. But yeah, obviously
27:21
she does. Yeah. She's a very good person.
27:23
But yeah, it's stuff like that where I
27:25
try to keep. The work all separate.
27:28
Talking about comedy wrestling, all
27:30
that kind of fun stuff.
27:32
We have a term in
27:34
wrestling. Like, for example, music
27:36
has groupies. Yes. We have
27:38
ring rats. I like lizards
27:40
for the truckers. But what
27:42
is the... Ours is the
27:44
best. Which is the chuckle-fuckers.
27:46
Shuckle-fuckers! That is
27:49
the best one. That is.
27:51
Yeah. Chuckle-fuckers. So are they pretty
27:53
bad then? Is it? Yeah. There was
27:55
one time back in my single days
27:57
where I met a very friendly lady
27:59
and... And we had fun and
28:01
then afterwards she kind of revealed
28:04
that she had a collection and
28:06
so you're just like she's like
28:08
banners you're like yeah I'm like
28:10
oh I'm just a gem on the
28:12
glove okay and I'm not even a
28:14
good one. So I had to like
28:16
go back and I had to like
28:18
in some of them were my friends
28:20
so I like damned him like hey
28:22
random question no context. You clean? Just
28:25
trying to violate some HIPAA laws.
28:27
That's fine. Yeah, that's road life.
28:29
And that's one of the things
28:31
that makes me very thankful to
28:33
have the wife that I do.
28:35
Because now when the show is
28:37
done, I go back to the
28:39
hotel room. Does she travel with
28:41
you sometimes though? Not as much
28:43
as we'd like. Funny, whenever
28:45
I get booked in Hawaii,
28:47
she always wants to go
28:49
on that one. I've ever
28:52
been, I really want to
28:54
go. You remember the Hawaii?
28:56
Yeah, so can I get
28:58
booked with you? Like, I'll
29:00
come with a wife, we'll
29:02
beat some Chucklefucker's ass here? Oh,
29:04
that's going to be the name
29:07
of this episode. Chucklefuckers? Oh my
29:09
God. That's like a family trip.
29:11
Yeah. Oh. Yeah, it's a great
29:14
city. Yeah, we're going to San
29:16
Diego this weekend. There's a gig
29:18
there. Great. There's a San Diego
29:20
zoo. Great. We'll take the kid.
29:23
Go to Lakeland. Whole thing. I try to
29:25
do as much family time as I
29:27
can, because you don't get a lot
29:29
of it. We need to come to one
29:31
of your shows. Like, please. You're
29:33
in California for the next week or
29:36
so, right? Yeah, I got shows. I would love
29:38
to. Who is? Who is? Please do. Sorry,
29:40
you know the answer. Okay. I think the
29:42
people need to know who is one
29:44
of your biggest, like icons for you
29:47
and also a fan. Oh, yeah, yeah,
29:49
this story. And you mentioned him
29:51
a little bit earlier with the
29:53
leg. Yeah. Yeah, so that's the
29:55
Robin Williams story where if you
29:57
ever want to know what's going to
29:59
be. on my tombstone one day, it'll
30:01
be this quote. I was doing a
30:03
show in San Francisco, and this guy
30:05
ran a show just north of San
30:07
Francisco in Mill Valley, and he said,
30:10
you wanna come do this show? It's
30:12
a place called the Throckmorton Theater, and
30:14
I go, sure. And I go there,
30:16
and I know that Robin lives there.
30:18
He had lived in Mill Valley. So
30:20
I'm doing my show, goes well. I'm
30:22
thinking, that was fun. And I go
30:24
back into the green room, Robin Williams,
30:26
freaking Robin Williams, fucking crazy dude, bursts
30:28
through the door with all the energy
30:30
that you believe and says, oh my
30:33
god, Mr. Williams, you're like Prozac with
30:35
a head. Oh my, that's fucking amazing.
30:37
I'm just like, that's done. If I
30:39
ever get a tattoo, that'll be by
30:41
tattoo. They name me your book? Yeah,
30:43
Prozac with a head. Yeah. And it
30:45
was so nice. Got to talk to
30:47
talk to him. The craziest part is
30:49
he invited me to his show, which
30:51
was the next night. and uh... so
30:53
i go obviously i'll stay this you
30:55
know i'll go so uh... but he
30:58
reserves seats for me now mill mill
31:00
valley is a very affluent area a
31:02
lot of tech people a lot of
31:04
lot of money in that in that
31:06
area and there's these two reserve seats
31:08
up front and this like a hundred
31:10
and fifty seat theater it is small
31:12
and it's a Robin Williams show so
31:14
it's like everyone's trying to get in
31:16
like a secret show that you guys
31:18
yeah and there's two reserve seats it's
31:21
packed and everyone's like who the hell
31:23

31:25
this pierce browsing and gonna come walking
31:27
down or like what and then it's
31:29
just me going on No, no, no,
31:31

31:33
like shocked. Like, yeah, they had no
31:35
idea who I was. Yeah, that's fucking
31:37
cool. There's like, what? You got my
31:39
family comedy. I love comedy. Some comedians
31:41
are like, I never watch anyone. I'm
31:44
like, I love watching other comedians. I
31:46
learned stuff. I'm impressed by what's going
31:48
on. So yeah, that's like, that's my
31:50
number one. Like, I'm sure you had
31:52
a couple of pinch me moments. Oh
31:54
dude, wrestling? Well hell, the rock producer
31:56
damn movie. The rocks is, he sure
31:58
did. But also fucking, I am in
32:00
love with Don Gold Steve Austin. I
32:02
just think, I guess, you know, he's
32:04
one of those people that everybody like
32:06
is a fan of, you know what
32:09
I mean, but like he. just speaks
32:11
to me on like a deeper level
32:13
because he was on the main roster
32:15
for four years I was on the
32:17
main roster for four years we both
32:19
suffered neck injuries and so and his
32:21
character was just so fucking like he
32:23
could stay the exact same being a
32:25
heel of every face yeah and he
32:27
was just so like Oh, he was
32:29
just a fucking bad, he still is
32:32
bad, I'm sounding like he's fucking dying
32:34
like that. He is a bad ass,
32:36
he still looks exactly the same, he
32:38
still acts the same, and he's like
32:40
wrestling on WrestleMania's like he did that
32:42
match with, you know, Kevin Owens and
32:44
stuff like that. Which I love Kevin
32:46
Owens too, I love him, I think
32:48
like, he's very similar in a way
32:50
to Stone Cold. It was so nice
32:52
to see him come back and have
32:55
that last match and have that last
32:57
match, with the rocket mania, but then
32:59
we didn't, but then we didn't know.
33:01
We as fans didn't know that that
33:03
was the last time we were seeing
33:05
them. So it was so good that
33:07
we got to have that moment of
33:09
like, okay, now we can let you
33:11
know how much we freaking love you.
33:13
And the thing that always gets me
33:15
when I watched like a Stone Cold
33:17
Biography, like you said, Main Roster for
33:20
four years. If you asked me how
33:22
long was Stone Cold on the Main
33:24
Roster, it'd be like, oh, 10 years,
33:26
20 years. He made such an impact.
33:28
And you look back and go like,
33:30
like, oh, oh, I thought he was.
33:32
the the dude forever and it's like
33:34
a four-year run so if you ever
33:36
get to that point like I'm touring
33:38
like a madman and I'm going back
33:40
on tour if I know my dates
33:43
Bradley's comedy but yeah like I got
33:45
strike while the iron's hot you don't
33:47
know how long it's gonna go yeah
33:49
so I'd like to you know before
33:51
I'm back in the dingy bars and
33:53
that's not gonna happen. Back being a
33:55

and I wanna do next year, so
34:51
it was gonna be really fun. You heard
34:53
it here. You also had a match on
34:56
that to... Interfer and he's the referee because
34:58
referee got knocked out he counts the one
35:00
two turns on the the face gives double
35:02
birds and now they started him and the
35:04
bad guy as they start attacking the face
35:07
and then I run out yeah and I
35:09
run out to be like that's bullshit and
35:11
then I run out and I just stood
35:13
and like stared at Dylan and Dylan
35:15
on under his breath he's going
35:18
hold hold hold hold hold hold
35:20
hold hold I love it I held and
35:22
the crowd starts chanting holy shit
35:24
before we've even done anything. It's
35:26
just too dwarf staring at each
35:28
other and everyone's like I'm pretty
35:31
sure they're casting a spell. And
35:33
then yeah got to give him
35:35
a stunner and then the crowd
35:37
just exploded and when that happened when
35:39
I when I got to the back I
35:42
was telling the guys like oh. That's
35:44
the feeling. I see why you do
35:46
this. Yeah, it's like a drug. I
35:48
felt fucking amazing. Yeah, dude, the way
35:50
you can like, I'm getting rock goosies
35:52
just talking about it again. No, seriously,
35:54
people don't understand that feeling until
35:56
you actually physically walk out
35:58
of that. And even the curtain's
36:01
still like, this is crazy, this is crazy.
36:03
Yeah. But when you make the crowd feel
36:05
something, well, you also know in comedy too,
36:07
like you are making the feel happy, sad,
36:09
fucking like, you know, like the chuckle fuckers
36:12
are all lining up. Like you're, you're fucking,
36:14
you're fucking, you can command a crowd, right?
36:16
Thank you. So like when it comes to
36:18
wrestling, which I was, I did see clips
36:21
of it, and then I was just like,
36:23
man, it feels like he's been doing, he's
36:25
been doing this, he's been doing this, he's
36:27
been doing this, like he's been doing this,
36:30
like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
36:32
like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
36:34
like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
36:36
like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
36:39
like, like, like, like, like, like, like, You
36:41
know, if any wrestler wants me to be
36:43
a valet, I don't mind it. That'd be
36:45
great. Anyone needs a talker. But it's just
36:48
so much fun and it's all entertainment. And
36:50
I can't imagine like doing stuff in arenas
36:52
that you guys do. Where you will, you're
36:54
gonna be getting there. But for a time,
36:57
you have 16,000 people, 18,000 people. If you're
36:59
at. All in at Wembley, God knows how
37:01
many that was. But just looking at you,
37:03
that's it. It's crazy. They're not looking at
37:06
a band. They're not looking at a whole,
37:08
they're looking at you, your opponent needs a
37:10
tag match, but there's for you. But like,
37:12
that's it. And you're in charge of entertaining
37:14
all these people. And you have to keep
37:17
them focused on you too. That's the hog
37:19
part. It's like, you know, like, especially in
37:21
such a big crowd like that, like that,
37:23
like. When you're in there too, you can't
37:26
hear the crowd. Really? Yeah, because the stadium,
37:28
like the, there's no roof on it, so
37:30
the noise goes up and out rather than
37:32
like down. I remember my first WrestleMania, I
37:35
was, it was me and AJ versus the
37:37
Bellers, and I was like, they fucking think
37:39
we suck. They think we suck. And then
37:41
like, once they got backstage, they were just
37:44
like, no, you're, you're a fucking idiot, you
37:46
don't know how I have like. sound works
37:48
but like they were loud they were reactionary
37:50
like they were great and it was like
37:53
okay so like so like so when it
37:55
comes to Wembley like I don't know if
37:57
I'm doing a good job but like when
37:59
I did win the championship though I did
38:02
I was able to hear them it broke
38:04
the sound barrier like that actually that was
38:06
really Awesome. You're just so natural at the
38:08
wrestling side of things. I want to ask
38:11
you what your favorite matches of all time
38:13
actually. Oh, I got some. Oh, go on.
38:15
I'm interested because you guys, he is a
38:17
wrestling fan. He's not just like a fake
38:19
of ponies. No. Generally, like loving the business.
38:22
I'm not going to tell you like one
38:24
of the ones that everyone says. I will
38:26
say, Mike, Masato Tanaka, at ECW. Oh, what
38:28
was it? This is like a hot, cool,
38:31
like a wrestling phantom right there. And even
38:33
their one night stand match, Awesome Tanaka, One
38:35
Night Stand, that is, one of my favorite
38:37
parts about that match was that it was
38:40
the WWE ECW One Night Stand. And like,
38:42
the WWE audience probably didn't know Mike Awesome
38:44
and Massato Tanaka. They knew like, yeah, they
38:46
are the Rob Band damned and the Dudley's
38:49
and stuff. And they came out there and
38:51
blew the damn roof off the joint. And
38:53
just. So many amazing moments from that
38:55
match. Love that. I'm so impressed by
38:58
that choice because a lot of people
39:00
even who are the hardest of wrestling
39:02
fans probably wouldn't even. Yeah, like you
39:04
have those bunch of RPD, Jerry Lynn
39:07
stuff. Jerry Lynn. Oh, I love Jerry.
39:09
I love that fucking guy dude. He's
39:11
amazing. He was like the modern day
39:14
wrestling, but back then. Yes. Yeah. And
39:16
by the way, it's an incredible metal
39:18
singer. Have you heard him saying? Oh,
39:20
Adam, we need to take a note
39:23
of that. He did some karaoke on
39:25
the Chris Jericho Cruise, where he sings
39:27
like death metal? Shut the fuck. Is
39:29
he screaming and stuff? But he's like
39:32
doing that like controlled scream. What? Okay,
39:34
it's like one of those hidden talents
39:36
that you find out someone had that
39:39
shocks you. Yes. Yes. Do you have
39:41
one of those? Can you also death
39:43
metal stream? I don't have a hidden
39:45
talent. I used to be able to
39:48
break dance, then I turned 40. Oh,
39:50
you break. That was how I made
39:52
friends in high school. I was funny,
39:55
and like the first, like at dances,
39:57
I would get a circle going dancing.
39:59
crazy fucking law dude like I was
40:01
actually we were talking about it earlier
40:04
before you got here and we had
40:06
said that maybe you were like a
40:08
security guard at like a theme Disneyland
40:10
Yeah, what? Like it's just crazy boy.
40:13
You need to write a fucking book
40:15
because I'm like, he did what? Yeah,
40:17
that was my first job. So I
40:19
was born and raised in Orange County,
40:21
California. So, and I'm a dwarf so
40:23
naturally I have to work at Disneyland.
40:26
That's kind of like, and no, not
40:28
one of the seven. Not one of
40:30
the seven. No, my job was I
40:32
was a bodyguard for the characters. So
40:34
I'd walk around with them. and mostly
40:36
it was fine every now and then
40:39
a five-year-old go mouthy and you got
40:41
a yeah give him the old warm
40:43
shiver all right this is the craziest
40:45
Disney story all right go on and
40:47
don't worry I won't break your hearts
40:50
fricking no do it funny files Disney
40:52
did that back in the 90s so
40:54
I was being a bodyguard for
40:56
Mickey Mouse one time, which is
40:59
just a crazy sentence to say.
41:01
Okay, so there's a time where
41:04
you're out there with Mickey and
41:06
then a half hour goes by
41:08
and it's really hot outside, so
41:11
you gotta take Mickey away and,
41:13
uh, the person's hot, okay, the person
41:15
inside is hot, I'm trying to be.
41:18
Keep the magic, whatever, the person side
41:20
is hot. So we have to go
41:22
sweat your ass crack. Yeah, so we
41:25
go and you have to switch out
41:27
the Mickey's. There's another person who's backstage,
41:29
who's ready to go in the Mickey outfit.
41:32
Now, what we have to do is we
41:34
tell all the people, hey, you know, we
41:36
can't say, Mickey's fucking hot, let the person
41:38
go, tile off and come. We can't say
41:40
that. So we have to like. improv and
41:42
we go like hey Mickey's gonna go get
41:44
a quick class of lemonade and then he's
41:46
gonna be right back out here we do
41:48
some more pictures and autographs so just stay
41:50
right here and I start taking him away and
41:53
this woman comes up and goes like no no
41:55
no one photo one photo and I'm like no
41:57
he's got to go but just just one photo
41:59
and I'm Now I kind of
42:01
look at her, go, hey,
42:03
stay right here. Mickey will
42:05
be back in 35 seconds,
42:07
just be cool. And I
42:09
start walk with Mickey away.
42:11
And then she yells out,
42:14
like really loud, Mickey, Mickey
42:16
turns. She was holding a
42:18
baby. Oh, no. She throws
42:20
the baby. No. She loved.
42:22
a baby airborne slow motion.
42:24
Mickey just does this. Oh,
42:26
thank God. Did you catch
42:28
the baby? Catch is the
42:30
baby. Yeah, she takes the
42:32
photo. You can tell us
42:34
what years ago, because I'm
42:36
doing that motion instead of
42:38
that motion. Yeah, takes the
42:40
photo, grabs her baby and
42:42
goes, thank you, and just
42:44
wanders away. What the fuck,
42:46
dude. Once again, breaking so
42:48
many rules, don't care. Mickey's
42:51
usually a small woman, okay?
42:53
She's usually a small woman.
42:55
You're breaking Joey's heart and
42:57
there. He loves Disney. All
42:59
right. And by the way,
43:01
if, because this happened a
43:03
couple times, dudes would like
43:05
flirt with Minnie, which was
43:07
very weird, because Minnie sometimes
43:09
is a very small Asian
43:11
man. So, dudes are like
43:13
grab Minnie's ass, and I'm
43:15
like, well, unless you've been
43:17
to Thailand, you're not gonna
43:19
like that. So, yeah. So,
43:21
Mickey got the baby and
43:23
then went backstage and then
43:26
like the head came up
43:28
and she's sobbing because she's
43:30
uncontrollable and I'm like, hey,
43:32
you're good. She's like, you
43:34
caught the baby. But what
43:36
if I didn't catch the
43:38
baby? I'm like, but yeah,
43:40
did catch the baby. Yeah,
43:42
saved a life from that
43:44
monstrous mother. Yeah, it's an
43:46
awful mother. If you're watching,
43:48
you're an awful mother. So
43:50
yeah, that was one of
43:52
those stories. How did the
43:54
comedy start? Like was it,
43:56
did you get, um, what's
43:58
the word? Did you get
44:01
discovered or was it
44:03
just? Really? Yeah, yeah. I was in,
44:05
I was 19 years old, I
44:07
took my dad Father's Day
44:09
weekend to see a show
44:11
and the comedian on stage
44:13
starts making midget jokes and
44:15
the audience is laughing on
44:17
one side of the room,
44:20
but the audience by me knows
44:22
I'm there is like. That's no
44:24
funny. The comedian notices and says, why
44:26
aren't you guys laughing? It was like,
44:28
what? Is one of them here? And
44:30
I just go, yep. And the comedian
44:32
called me up on stage. Oh, hell
44:34
yeah. And he's like, I want to
44:36
talk to you and start asking me
44:38
questions. And he asked me, like, what
44:40
do you do for a living? And
44:42
I answered at the time I was working
44:44
at Disneyland and that made the audience
44:46
laugh. And then I literally turned and
44:48
did the joke I did earlier where
44:51
I said, shut up, I'm not one
44:53
of the seven. That made the audience
44:55
laugh. And that was the. That was
44:57
a moment where I'm like, oh,
44:59
that feels good. Yeah, it's
45:01
good. And you're like naturally
45:04
just really funny. So like, well,
45:06
I mean, I've been so I
45:08
was taught kind of to be
45:11
funny. My dad, who by the
45:13
way, both my parents advertised tall
45:15
people. Yeah, we're not all like,
45:18
you know, I wasn't raised in
45:20
a tree. So, they're tall. But
45:22
my dad knew, he's like, you're
45:25
probably gonna get. some stairs and
45:27
some questions and some you know
45:29
some people are gonna say inappropriate
45:31
things to you so my dad
45:34
literally at a very young age and
45:36
he was a defense attorney so he
45:38
was a very good talker he would
45:40
write comebacks with me like we'd be
45:43
like five six years old and he
45:45
would write comebacks so kids would make
45:47
fun of me I would Zip back
45:49
at them. Yeah, and then they would
45:51
know oh don't make fun of Brad
45:54
because he's a funny guy He'll make
45:56
you cry So he kind of taught
45:58
me so I've been comfortable with people
46:00
looking at me and saying things. So
46:02
it's like if I ever do get
46:05
a heckler, I almost want to look
46:07
at them and be like, you don't
46:09
think I've heard whatever you said a
46:11
million times, like, you know, I'll be
46:13
on stage and some guy will yell
46:16
out, lucky charms. I'll be like, all
46:18
right, let's go after you. Yeah. That's
46:20
when they go, oh, that's not part
46:22
of the show. Yes, it is, motherfucker.
46:25
I don't want to. It's safe to
46:27
sit in the front row of my
46:29
show. If you're a great audience member
46:31
and you laugh and then you shut
46:34
up and then you laugh and then
46:36
you shut up, you're gonna have a
46:38
great time, sit front row. But if
46:40
you start yelling at me and say
46:42
things, I say things to you and
46:45
then. It doesn't end well for you.
46:47
Well, we were just talking about before
46:49
this as well about the tick-tock comedians
46:51
where they're like, it looks like they're
46:54
somewhat encouraging the heckling. So like people
46:56
are more prone to do it because
46:58
they want to be in a viral
47:00
video. You know, and yeah. But you
47:03
don't like the tick-hickling comedians. No. I've
47:05
worked on these jokes a long time.
47:07
I'm way funnier than you. If you're
47:09
in the audience, it's why you're buying
47:11
the ticket. Remember shit like people ask
47:14
that about wrestling all the time and
47:16
they're like you put in some reps
47:18
you kind of figure out you know
47:20
like same same thing really so I
47:23
imagine it's similar because wrestling you have
47:25
like all right at the beginning we're
47:27
gonna do this yeah middle we're gonna
47:29
do this then this is the finish
47:31
this is go home and that's I
47:34
have bits that are like they're 10
47:36
minutes long but like okay this is
47:38
the This is the porn hub bit.
47:40
Okay, and this is yeah, all the
47:43
stuff that is in there So it's
47:45
not taking out like individual lines It's
47:47
more like all right. This is porn
47:49
hub bit then I move on to
47:52
airplane then I go to relationship and
47:54
close with whatever the hell so that's
47:56
kind of the structure and just doing
47:58
it over and over and over again
48:00
I'm doing it now 20 years just
48:03
scary. But yeah, so doing that, you
48:05
just kind of, those reps becomes, Tommy
48:07
Davidson wants to describe it as an
48:09
unnatural naturalness, which I like. Oh yeah.
48:11
Because it's very unnatural to be
48:13
on stage in front of that
48:16
many people and to expect them
48:18
all to shut up and just
48:20
hear you talk. That's very unnatural.
48:22
But you do it so many
48:24
times. I'm more. comfortable on stage
48:26
than I am off. I recently
48:28
found out that my wife was
48:31
talking to me literally last night
48:33
about like, so a couple of
48:35
my friends, they think like you
48:37
don't like them because you're like
48:40
socially, like you're quiet and they
48:42
ask me if you were angry
48:44
and I'm like. No, I'm tired. I'm tired.
48:46
Well, usually they say that about comedians
48:48
as well as dresses. Okay, usually people
48:51
in show business, like we have to
48:53
be larger than life. And we're at
48:55
home. We don't like to really go
48:57
out. We don't want to socialize anymore.
48:59
Like our social battery kind of drains.
49:01
But I understand where you come from.
49:03
There's no... Again, there's no malicious intent
49:05
there, you're just like, listen brother, I'm
49:07
fucking tying. I'm off. Yeah, exactly, and
49:09
they expect you to be exactly how
49:11
you are on stage, right? Yeah, if you were, uh,
49:14
Page or AW Sorea all the time. Oh, fuck that.
49:16
No, I don't leave the house. This is why you
49:18
have to come to my house. You'd be a
49:20
monster to hang out with. Oh, same with me.
49:22
And then, so with your shows, obviously,
49:24
obviously, like, like, like, like, like, like
49:27
is... It's the same as like a
49:29
resin show you have multiple matches you
49:31
have multiple comedians that are opening for
49:33
you. There's comedian actually his special literally
49:35
just came out on YouTube today. His
49:37
name is J.B. Ball. He's been my
49:39
opener for about four years now. That's
49:41
nice. You're loyal to him. He's loyal
49:43
to me. It's great. He's he is
49:45
a six foot three black guy so
49:48
we don't. You're so different. Yeah. And
49:50
the best part is like after a
49:52
show. The only thing that's open is
49:54
like a Waffle House. So we'll go
49:56
to Waffle House and we walk in
49:58
and one AM Waffle House. a show
50:00
every time and we walk in.
50:02
Yeah and we're looking around like
50:04
look at all these crazy people
50:06
and then we stop and go
50:08
oh they're looking at us like
50:10
yeah. What the fuck? Six or
50:12
three black guys in a minute?
50:14
What the hell's going on there?
50:16
It's like Arnold and Dynatively, or
50:18
Twins? Yes, yes. Like sometimes we
50:20
act like a gay couple just
50:22
because I think it's funny. It's
50:24
fun. It's fun. It's just, it's
50:27
like I said, it's just, it's
50:29
like I said, it's just the
50:31
joke. But yeah, he is fantastic.
50:33
And then there's a couple of
50:35
comedians that kind of rotated for
50:37
a while, right? And how long
50:39
are you on the road for?
50:41
When do I die? That's what
50:43
I'm done. This run. This run
50:45
starts next week and it'll, right
50:47
now my last show is December
50:49
31st of this year. Jesus fucking
50:51
Christ, dude. Yeah, you don't have
50:53
a break. That's like wrestling too.
50:55
You don't have breaks. No. Thankfully,
50:57
I get home as much as
50:59
I can. Yeah. It's usually like
51:01
three or four days on, three
51:03
or four days off. and then
51:05
you know you go back on
51:07
the road but yeah so it's
51:09
the road life so I'm sure
51:11
you and I could talk while
51:13
houses and truck stops and hotels
51:15
but we will go into the
51:17
segment option if that's okay with
51:19
the year yeah but we do
51:21
do segments jack our style segments
51:23
but we do have very tame
51:25
segments which we're gonna do with
51:27
Brad now because he does have
51:29
his tour about to come up
51:31

51:33
easy on him okay so we
51:35

53:38
All right, team, what are we
53:40
gonna say? Joe, you usually have
53:42
a good humor over here. Tell

53:46
I just said, hey dude, I
53:48
had a dream about you last
53:51
night and I just sent it
53:53
and we'll just see how that
53:55
goes. I don't know if he's
53:57
gonna respond. Jericho will respond. Okay,
53:59
yeah. I don't know how he
54:01
has a time. You can do
54:03
Jericho too. Just say the same
54:05
thing. Hey, Chris. I drew about
54:07
you last night. All right, we'll
54:09
do that. I'm just like, what,
54:11
like, what, like, what would I
54:13
do? If Trey or, or, or,
54:16
Chris texted me this. Yeah. But
54:18
if not, I'll just be like,
54:20
all right, well, text array and
54:22
it's her fault. All right, Chris,
54:24
if you do get it, come
54:26
on the podcast and we can
54:28
get him back somehow, but in
54:30
a different way. We have a
54:32
response. Oh, yeah, wait. I told
54:34
the parrot thing, we should do
54:36
something else. I told you Jericho
54:38
would respond first. He wrote, was
54:40
I naked? Say, we both were.
54:43
And then he says, what are
54:45
you up to today? So maybe
54:47
he's trying for a hookup. I
54:49
don't know. Like, say, do you
54:51
want to recreate this dream, bud?
54:53
Meet me at my brewery. So
54:55
what are you up to today?
54:57
This is when I will take
54:59
the selfie. And then, uh, here
55:01
you go. Hey. I love it.
55:03
Chris gets back to you quick,
55:05
huh? He loves you. It's crazy
55:07
because the guy's got 9,000 jobs.
55:10
You know, he's always busy. Yeah,
55:12
he's always busy, but yet he
55:14
always gets back to me. He's
55:16
a good guy. He's always been
55:18
an absolute diamond to everybody. Like
55:20
he has the opportunity if he
55:22
wants to have a bit of
55:24
an ego on him, but he
55:26
knows he's good, he knows he's
55:28
successful, but he also knows his
55:30
legend status, but he's always... Like
55:32
you said if you text him
55:35
if you talk to him they'll
55:37
get back to you straight up
55:39
fucking where you're like Jesus Christ
55:41
and and then throws a hell
55:43

55:49
you're gonna be on it I'm
55:51
gonna be on it. I don't
55:53
know 100% if I'd wrestle maybe
55:55
maybe me and you Oh shit,
55:57
let's do it. Yeah, intergender. Yeah,
55:59
an agenda. Do we do a
56:02
tag or we do a one-on-one?
56:04
Remember, I suck. So do I.
56:06
Okay, let's do an intergender. Okay,
56:08

56:10

Swoggling you versus me and then
