Speaker 1 (01:06):
For those of you keeping track, we are one away
from triple digits one zero zero Johnny, and as we
ramp up to one hundred, we had to bring back
one of our favorite guests that we've ever had on
the podcast. He's one of our most frequent guests. In fact,

(01:28):

Me Podcast Guest of the Year. I don't know what
we're gonna call him. He's changed his name a few times,

(01:51):
to laugh with me.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
See what's up Johnny.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Maybe he won't answer. Possible, Maybe he changed his number.
Your call has been for I think he changed his
number on us, first of all, which would be that

(02:33):
would be such a levetty thing to have changed his number.
He knows I'm calling. I was like, hey, come on
live with me, and this is like, now I feel
like I'm getting pranked, like episode ninety nine. Who I'll
tell you what. Who was more responsible of a guest?
The freaking Tiger King. He's in prison. He was basically

(02:56):
right on time.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
That's something.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
This is what freedom will do to guy. You know,
that's what freedom will do a guy. It was all
kinds stuff I want to talk about. He's got a
big show actually, August twenty second in Chicago at the
Babs Comedy Club. We're excited for this one.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
I want to say what he thought.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
But man Vetti didn't answer the phone. Maybe it's on silent.
That's he's a busy guy. It's possible he had it
on silent. He probably doesn't even know that I'm calling here.
Let's let's try it again. Maybe it's one of those

(03:35):
things where it's like, oh, oh, he's calling us. He's
called Vetti Vegas. Everybody he's calling up, He's calling hello, sir.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
We're going on.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Man, Hey, I thought you I thought you changed your
number when no one answered the first time.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Oh, sorry, sorry about that.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
I was like, he changed his number. I mean, it's
been so long on the show and he refused to talk.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
To us about I thought you was I thought you
was one of these.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
Nose double Hey, what what do the hosts call you?
Do they call you Lovetty? Do they call you Vetty?
Do they call you? What other name you're going to
change in a couple of weeks? Like what do they
call you?

Speaker 2 (04:22):
Man? You know what it is man? You know people
call you know, it's crazy. People call me vety. That's
what's even more crazy. I didn't why change it. It's
already a nickname. It's short, you know what I mean,
maybe short Betty. So you know, I was going through
a little thing. I'm still in believing in gonfidence and

(04:43):
everything like that, but the whole change, and it was
I think change is fun sometimes, you know what I mean? Yeah,
And when you when you think about it, everything like that.
Oh that's that's nice, And especially when you've been going
by something for so long. It's like moving out of
an apartment. You've been there for like four years, you

(05:04):
know what I mean, and like, oh man, going to
a new apartment. And it's not that the new apartment
is bad. It looks good and everything like that, but
it was not wrong with the old apartment, you know
what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (05:13):
Yeah, less people don't move back to the old apartment.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
They usually just deal.

Speaker 2 (05:17):
With And that's why I said, that's a terrible analogis
That's why I just said.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
I was like, that's funny. Well, hey, you were getting
some you were getting some hate today by Lil Ray.

Speaker 2 (05:36):
Little Real, Little Roal.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
Yeah, what's up with that you.

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Talked about Let's let's let's put it out. There's talking
about Little Real from get out. Yeah, he has his
own stand up. He was in the Carmichael Show. Oh
it wasn't. It wasn't. It wasn't Actually Little I'm and
I'm a fan of b Ray Davis. It was another
comic and d Ray Davis I've been watching if I

(06:02):
was twenty probably younger. Him and Mike des Is always
like somebody else wants to be because they're like as
a comic. They both could you know what I mean.
They're Hood and the tunny, but they're not like super
if it's gonna They're not super Hood. They're Hood everybody.
They're not just good comics. You know you know them

(06:22):
from him, you know what I mean? And I've been
a clip of another podcast and it came up from
my algorithm. That's more crazy. I think he came up
because I'm a fan of ear to Days. I fall
with him, and I fall with well then the guy
was talking about and he is actually a known guy.
I think I think my fact for being true. He's
not a star, but he is important. And I think

(06:44):
that's what people need to separate. Like if I aims,
but you had three million dollars and let's say I
was saying this and only had five hundred thousand dollars. People,
but people know me unless Allison movies and everything like that,
who's the star? Why would be the star? But you
will be important? You see what I'm saying. There's a

(07:04):
difference between me and the star. It being important. You know,
there's people in the White House that probably got more money.
And let's say you know, just any you know might
have more money.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
Then let's say like Triple H w W or you
know what I mean, but you but you don't know
that guy. That guy probably has more money than Triple H.
It's a difference between me and a star. It being
important and the two can be combined. But you know,
this is that comparison. So the guy was totally talking
about the very Davids, not even Sam.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
He will talking about be Ray Davis and how he's
coming in and being the star. And if you don't
have to clutch, it was like it was comparing him
to James Fox, like Jimmy Fox and Jimmy Fox was
going to be a star. When Dray Davis said it,
he didn't really believe him. He didn't really think that
there was a connection or or he was going to
be a star. So the and then at the end

(07:52):
of the country did that he was wrong. And but
maybe I should have watched the whole interview on the
people the actually podcast on their whole page. But this
is the thing about clips. When you post clips, you're
trying to get what your baby people. Let's be honest,
you know it is say he was wrong about b

(08:14):
Ray being the star. You know it. It had a
had a title that swum a certain way. So I
went on there and was like, what was this guy?
Who are these people to say that the Ray Davids
is in the star, like I know who the very
Davis is. I don't know any of these people that's
on here. He's a bigger start in. And that's when

(08:35):
little Roil came and said that he said what he said?
He said, hey man, instead of such a what do
you say? I forgot? Would he even said, I won't
have to look at it again. But oh, instead of
such a harsh take, why don't you watching them like
who they are? Which it was not a it's not he,
it's not this, that's a that's actually a great response.

(08:56):
Oh it wasn't. He didn't attack me. I didn't attack him.
And for him to even respond like because he responded earlier,
I don't. I think he did watch it, and he
already had responded earlier with a big paragraph defended to
be very David too, and but and then the guy
who was talking about him responded to be very David,

(09:17):
was like, yeah, and I apologize something something. So I
just left my my take, which I'm I'm a local comic,
you know what I mean? All right, I'm I'm nobody,
you know what I'm saying. So and the respond to
that was actually pretty it was dope. I got a
responsible comic and watching, you know, like watching it sort

(09:39):
of said that it wasn't, you know, related to how
I wanted to be related. But they're not a response.
I wasn't trying to pay anybody. It was just that
was my take. But it also showed me like, you
don't know who's watching, You don't know who's.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Respond exactly when you're posting on stuff, and those clips
are for everybody, so yeah, you never know.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
You you never know. So it's like, you know, sometimes
it's better to be kind or not really have a
hearsh take. I learned that from a comic this past weekend.
I'm not going to say this man because it's not
important enough, but he he had He admitted, I just
think people are weird. That's accomplished to be weird. And

(10:22):
I'm not friends with you. Don't followed me, he unfriended me.
I think he's blocked me and everything because I didn't
row with his opinion. I think a lot of people
on social media wants you to grow with what they say.
So he say yeah, man, man, that's that guy and
it's cool. But if you go against the opposite of
what they say, it's it's competitional or you're the bad guy.

(10:43):
Right in the social media world, I didn't really learn
to uh comic in the morning shout out of being
with Magie. She's like one of the first people that
like added me and I didn't know her, but like
that's what comic do. Comed Ships add people. They add
other comedics. I didn't even know ideas that you can

(11:05):
tell it like, I wasn't hitting her that. It was like,
who are you? Like I remember you? Oh you you
need to come upon you. But this is a comic student.
I'm like, what, I didn't know this. She was like
like the first person I had to ask, like who
is this girl? And no and no disrespect David Techer
fiance nothing. But I'm wasn't like, man, you girls kind

(11:28):
of add me. You know what I'm saying. I'm always curious,
like you know what I mean, Well, we asked me, befo,
I asked her, that's how like yeah, And then we
met in first and a couple of times, four shows
all one time, and she she's cool. Fuck man, she
actually pretty cool. But back to my story of this guy, was.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
It possible that it was about hul Cogan.

Speaker 2 (11:51):
No, No, we're gonna. We definitely gonna get to that
talk about Yeah, we're gonna. We're gonna get to that, cause,
you know, for people I had, the people in the inbox,
I'm like, comments, don't don't go to my inbox. You
got something to say, you believe it in those comments
it's funny. It's just switch to that super quick. It's funny.

(12:15):
And that I post about that, and that got like
more reactions than any comedic thing I honestly post. You know,
I think you know what it is though. I think
it's because me being a local comedian. They're expected comedy
to be posted, or they're used to comedy being posted.
So when you post something that's out of the norm,
and you know, being then up and coming comic, you're

(12:38):
supposed to what are you supposed to do? You're supposed
to go by the line. Man, You're not supposed to
go against the grain. You're not. You're supposed to go
with the slogan. You know, my brother was trying to
know you're up comic comment and I got told this
years ago by another guy you don't even talk more
friends too. But I felt like I said the advice,

(12:58):
and I was like, I'm gonna say what I want
to say, because when you're up and coming, you're supposed
to just over what everybody says. Blah blah blah blah blah.
Don't go let's fields even though people agree with you.
I got people that might agree and stuff like that,
and stuff I say at the time, and they will
in box me, but they won't comment on it, you
know what I mean, because they don't want or react
on it because they don't want that heat and shout

(13:18):
out to the world wanes that actually do that. But
you know, there's a guy. It's a lot of people
are adam social media's when I'm skied to, and he
was just in another comedian that I no one's social media.
I never met neither one of these juds. But he
called the dude though he said he he got mad
at the guy because he said, oh, he bombed. He

(13:39):
said he was creepy to an audience member. He walked
on stage and abruptly and he unbusked them. Right. So
I'm reading the comments and I'm like, well, damn man,
let's you know, and really, if you creep audience, if
you do crowd work, sometimes they don't know the way.
It might not creep somebody out. But if you do

(14:00):
crowd work, which that's the only way I could see
him creeping an audience member. You said an audience member
that obviously he was on stage with whatever he was doing, right,
So you know, so you gotta you gotta get to
say who that person up is, but not give context.
I feel like that's bullshit. So don't don't. Don't put
somebody's name through the dird if you ain't got context

(14:22):
right like that, you just can't do that. So I
want to get to the braint. I said, I'm gonna
give enough perspective. Man, oh, because he said he got
a booked. But then in another coming he said he
was angry, and he said it to me too, like
he was just upset. I said, well, you were still
gonna work with him. What's crazy is you were still
going to work with him though, even though he creeped
the audience member out. But now you got anybody calling

(14:44):
him a creep, but you're still willing to work with him,
you know what I mean, even though he's a creep
quote unquote, right, but since you got a booked, now
he's a creep, and now you now you're trying to
do the right. That doesn't even make sense. That doesn't like,
you can't put somebody on blasts for beating a creep
quote unquote, but you're still gonna do their show. It

(15:05):
doesn't even make any sense. So so so since since
he's but you only calling him a creep and the
only reason putting this on blasts is because he booked you,
and and I don't even only people from all any bomb. Man,
if you're a comic and you saying that you never bombed,
shut up, yeah, shut up, shut shut up, shut up?
Oh any bomb? Ha ha ha. He like, like, you

(15:27):
don't bomb, then you should be booked every fucking weekend.
If you don't bomb, you should be in Hollywood right now.
If you aren't, you should be in New York right now.
If you don't bomb, shut up. Stop like they're clawing
somebody for bombing. So then he admitted I didn't have
such a good set either. You know, why did we
even say this guy didn't have a good set? Like, like,
but the difference between me and him was I've been
taking out of the crowd who cares And it was

(15:51):
just like this dude was such a softy man, and
like you, I'm not even gonna say this man because
he has a good following. But I was just like,
what is this guy? You know what I mean? Like
the saying and then he got man. It was like, Oh,
you're somebody that I don't I really don't want to
talk to. You've seen confrontational and I was like, God,
he's probably right. And then he proceeds to talk about

(16:14):
how he is. He does, he is emotional, and he
does have a feel with using. It's just hurt old
man and oh man, and what I said, it's my favorite. Yeah.
I was gonna work with him. I don't care if
he was a creep. And you don't book me, you
just sound stupid. He said, hedn't gonna get a fund
of your comics. That's not what he said. And he
told me that's not what he said. I told me

(16:35):
he was wrong. I told another comic he was wrong.
I said, hey, man, comics work hard to get these days.
So if you give me a date and you cancel
on me in a week, I'm gonna need some money. Yeah, period,
because I baked out this day. It's hard to get
this day. Feel back up. I'm blacked out this day, buddy,
So I'm gonna need some money, you know what I mean.
And he was like, yeah, you're right, that was wrong
with that aspect, but that is what happened. Is I'm

(16:57):
just moving on, you know, but the other comics as professional.
He might think that sounds put another comment on blast
and knowing what he did, that's not professional. But man,
you you you bookers look at that. Bookers look at
your page. But when you get booked. You know what
bookers do. When you get booked, whether people think believe
it or not, they go to your social media face
and it should be public because you're somebody who's trying

(17:18):
to make it entertainment. Your your page should be private.
Your page is private, then you're not really trying to
make it entertain people. People got it. It's your page's private,
it's not you know, the only thing that's private on
my quote unquote, uh, actually you know I say that
and then I just thought about it. The only thing
that's private on mine is leaving a comp You don't

(17:40):
leave a comment for friends. You can't leave a comment
on my video if we're not friends, or if you're
not following me, I think too. Then if you're follow me,
you can leave a comment, or for if you follow me,
you can leave a comment. For friends, you can believe
a comp but if you're not doing either one, you
can't do the com video.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
So like, I've got a separate like the Laugh with
Me comedy like has a public you know, has a
public page. I am my impersonal one. My personal one
is private except for everybody who's a friend or follow
or whatever. But that's I post pictures of my kids
and whatnot. But the but everything goes through both of them.

(18:18):
Basically that's comedy related. So anybody could see anything. But yeah,
anything on the Laugh with Me one, I means as
public as it gets.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Yeah, and in mind is I just thought about it.
I just think I got annoyed with a certain group
of people leaving comments all my stuff. I might turn
it off because I let people comment that I'm not friendsly,
But oh.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
Yeah, you you posted the other day. You were like,
hey to the black community, what do you think about
Hull Cogan? And it's passing. So I had to comment
as a member of the black community. I had to
comment and I did.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
I was like, what is it? Do it? It's funny
because you commented I think one other non black person combatant,
and then the people who reacted to it were all white.
That was even more weird. I was like, black people
holes over white people leaving a reaction. I'm like, huh,
it was. It just didn't it is. It isn't sound

(19:19):
right to me, But whatever. I don't know, man.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
You know, as a Ginger, I'm a member of the
black community.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
You know this. According to TikTok they're talking of the
new Wikipedia.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
TikTok nose. TikTok knows it gave me the okay. I'm
here to say to you because I know you've come
at me with the hard R on the ginger. You
come at me with the hard R. I just want
to say, as your friend, I'm going to allow you
to use the hard R on me. Yeah, you're my friend.
Now I'm gonna put I'm gonna let you use the

(19:53):
hard r uh because you're you're basically ginger with us.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
If you're trying to get that same usage for me,
that is a one way street. I'm just lay lay
you know the interview will be roughly the same. You know.

Speaker 1 (20:25):
That's great. So I mean, how did hold cooked? I mean,
I'm sure you grew up a fan of his, right
like most of us did. I mean he was He's
a legend, right, the character is a legend.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Oh man, this is a tough thing. Man. And it's
so crazy because somebody even said, oh, we're not trying
to justify his racism in these comics, and I don't
think that's what was really Maybe that was, Okay, this
is the thing. It's too It's two times when I
disliked Coch. It was what he turned his back on

(20:57):
w c W and it was the n W A yep.
And when I heard him say the stuff he said
about blacking. Now this is the thing, and even the
n WU. Then I started to like it because I
was a sky Hall fan when sky Hall made less Man,
it's it's leird, I'm a bigains. He even treated me

(21:18):
when he had Twitter at the time, way before he
passed weed to tweet each other to be a skoy Hall.
No bullshit. There's only like three or four tweets and
maybe somebody else was running it, but he still said
skoy Hall. This is the thing so hul koger alight,
leg but also racist. I mean, that's that's that's what
it is. And the thing about it is in the

(21:41):
eighties and everybody loves I reason I don't like that
because of Scout. I like, you know what I mean.
So it's just like you love to hate him, right,
But I think it gets disturbage of when he said
what he said, and yeah, that wasn't private, right, and
even when it's you know what, you know what it is. Honestly,

(22:03):
I'll keep it straight up with you. If she said
black guy, man, oh man, like she's cool, you know,
but they hold hands. And if he was saying like
he said, black guy, this would be a totally different story, right,
But he destrived us as the end work. That's the

(22:23):
disturbing work, right like, And it could be still race
quote unquote if she had said black guys. But that's
him describing us, right right, that's describing my race. If
you say this black guy.

Speaker 6 (22:36):
You know, if somebody was like, man, who's the guy
who was that guy who just made twenty points last
night at the ball court and he was the only
black guy there, and then you know it's the only
whether describe the guy who scored twenty the black guy.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
You know, right, that's not racist. That's describing somebody. If
he said, man, who was that in work? That was
ericon basketball. You know what I'm saying, it's a little different.

Speaker 4 (23:02):
It's at there, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
But you know what I'm saying, like, you're such a
difference there.

Speaker 2 (23:08):
Yeah, there, there's a there's a way, but there's a
way that I watched our people talk about little a lot,
but there's a little difference, you know what I mean.
So how he said it, you know, it was just
it was so wild how he said it. And then
Holdan Hogan is always good about the man. So here
what I'm saying, man, she can it's gonna be any word.

(23:31):
He's going to be a richid word, you know what
I'm saying. So it's just like here and there. It
is disturbing because that's really that made that Maybe do
to hop the baby, you know what I mean, get
hooked up and you know, wave your hand into the
to the wing or whatever. But listen, racism aside. Even

(23:51):
when I watched holding those bets, you know he was playing.
You ever seen hold those that's what he was. Yeah,
he was playing in the park, yeah to get part. Yeah,
and he played it like four or five six times,
you know. But I used to watch I used to
watch some of those best because I'm like, this is
one of my favorite wrestlers. So the thing about it
is even last year, i'd be super honest for she's

(24:12):
been last year. I want to say this last year,
I even forgot that. I'm being honest with you. Man.
I even I saw he was coming at high V
and I'm like, oh man, I gotta go super okovid
But that memory was like, oh wait a minute, uh,
you know what I mean. But it was just like forgetting.
But like that's that is a childhood legend, who was

(24:32):
the best and biggest wrestler of all time. Ok, who
was more over than anybody in this world. Oh ooga,
who had the biggest hill turn in life. There's never
been a bigger hill turn than ovid La. You can't
name a big little, bigger hill There's nobody who turned

(24:55):
it back bigger than that was the peak. Nobody believes that.
Everybody I was that, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (25:10):
So talked about That's the thing. That's how great till
this till.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
This day, even who may who had the biggest who
was part of the biggest fashion in my opinion, So
a lot of people say anything everything else. Some people
might say d N n w U was the biggest.
You ain't seen people with DN shirts walking around school,
walking around around You've seen people with n w O shirts.

(25:37):
I was doing the whole wolf pack side.

Speaker 7 (25:40):
And everything big stop it the biggest wrestler ever, period.
Oh Covian is the biggest wrestler in the world. Racism
a side or not, period, You can't.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
That's like if Michael, if we found out Michael the
world was racist, right now, does that mean he's not
the best in the world.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Know, he's still the great.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
In the world. Michael Jordan was still me if you
know this is gonna it's gonna take it to Oh
fuck it, we were doing it. If we found out
Michael Jordan was a pedophile, He's I will say it if.

Speaker 6 (26:19):
You found out about my damn and this dude test kids,
but he got six rings.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
You know what I'm saying, Like, horm dude, you know
what I'm saying, Like because because it's hard, you know,
it's not hard to just uh separate the to But
facts are facts, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
So that's where I'm at. I'm I'm I'm exactly in
that camp with it, like as a as a human
he from the sounds of it, and there's some private
conversations out there that it approves it. He was a
bad dude, right, but as like a character, as a
professional as who that name Hulk Hogan is iconic. No

(26:59):
one will ever know anybody better.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
Right in that.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Business, it's kind of the same. And and bear with
like follow me here, it's kind of the same as
my as my guy O J. Simpson, he was a
Hall of Famer, Heisman Trophy winner, he's charismatic, he's in
the movies. Everybody loves him. He got accused of some
stuff like people. People will hold that against him, But

(27:24):
the guy's guy was a pros pro.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
That's and that's a that's a person because that's what
I made, right. But his thing though, we got proof
Oku was r.

Speaker 1 (27:40):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (27:40):
We got proof. We got proof that O. J. Simpson
Nicle Simpson, No.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
No, no, we don't. We We have proof that he
stole some memorabilia of his own from a dealer.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
That's about and that's about it.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Yeah, we have any proof that he's a murderer.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
We we we gotta, we gotta.

Speaker 8 (28:01):
We got assumptions. So we got people that hate this
dude off of assumptions. See I found out guilty. How
you also say somebody's guilty and they got found out?
Like so that's my whole thing, Hogian veg.

Speaker 2 (28:13):
But we can't take an w o biggest fat shit.
You can's healter biggest baby traits. Oh HOGI carried wrestling
for years, but as a person who's racist and the

Ogogan wasn't the best.

why he had this step. That's a tough one too.
Reason me man like, because some of those allegations and
some of those are true so and and some of
those like damn man, how he get away with all this?

(32:11):
You know what I mean, it's it's still the till
this day. You can't even fire her. You can't google her.
You don't know what she looks like. I forgot the
name of the first woman referee she said she got,
you know, assaulted yea, And I remember I saw a
video or and everything about best Man. You can't even
find a video like you can't. You can google her

(32:32):
right now and you still can't find the image of
you know, you have no nobody has no idea what
this woman looks like. To this day. All you got
is the old picture from the age. It's it's sort
of like the same with the guy I forgot, the
same that did the whole thing with the cubs, what
he called the boss. You know what I mean, Yes,
you can't, you can't. You know it's a Steveman or

(32:55):
Steve something. And you still can't find a picture of
him to this day, well for twenty years later, you
still can't google with the picture of what he looks
like this? Where is that that is? You can't You know,
people don't know. That's that's because he hain't got so
much hate. Just think he got because of that. It

(33:16):
didn't because in up winning you know years later and
when I heard it, you know, they couldn't find them.
You know, when you get that much hate in the public.
Guy that was before social media. Man, Just think about that.
It happened with social media. You know, even in the
referee name was like U something, I forgot her rend

(33:39):
But it's stuff like that happened with social media. How
bigger on m plantfum that type of stuff is. Man,
So it's sad man, this is gonna go down as
got a very wrestling with wrestling a bit. I would
have never I would have never put them. He sounded

(34:01):
it for.

Speaker 4 (34:05):
I still doing it.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
You're so, let's let's switch gears to your tears. You
got a ship ton of work going on here. What
what is the status of the elevation card? Like we've
talked about it before, But what's like the status?

Speaker 3 (34:21):
Man?

Speaker 2 (34:22):
We had been paying multiply see hosted she for nothing.
That's that's moving man. It's at a stand still, man.
But it's I just people are busy, man, what's crazy?
The only thing I need, man, is somebody. And I
watched it and I always lost the roads my brother,

(34:42):
he always says himself. And I watched Kevin on stage,
camro stage. I don't know if you're doing or not.
Like themedia, he's played pretty much played. And he he
was talking about posting stuff and they don't got to
be perfect. He just needs to be posted like people
are not caring about the life. I just post it.
Post what you're trying to post. Post. They don't have

(35:04):
to be perfect. And I think that's my problem with
the Elevation Card a little bit not even mainly a
little bit. My problem is I don't have nobody too.
I need three people I mean camera, I mean somebody
else with their own phone or whatever that I could
tap it so I could tell how it works. But

(35:26):
what's crazy and this crazy working world is I can't
find nobody to do that. That's that's the problem. Everybody's busy.
I work fifty hours a week, but I do try
to find five with somebody else. Nobody really wants to
do it. And I think that's not even think that
is the problem. So I can't feel how it works.
But right now I'm at a standstill. I ever try

(35:47):
to get the problem off. The card is only ten
dollars if you want the ship to use at about
two fifty. But set a stand still, and I'm hoping
this week.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
All right, we're trying to get the elevation card out
this week.

Speaker 2 (36:08):
Sorry, but I'm telling I'm definitely I'm there. I just
need somebody. I got.

Speaker 1 (36:16):

Speaker 1 (37:08):
I'm clear on it now. I just know a lot
of people weren't. So you what do you know what
kind of like what your role is like? I know
you're doing the training videos, but do you know what
your role is like? Have you been prepping?

Speaker 2 (37:22):
Oh? How have I been prepping? I do not know
my role is? Hit, No, I do that. I'm even
bringing my contexts sifting kid, I'm pretty sure world, So
I'm gonna bring my context would be because I've been
down with the glasses now, but bring my contest would
be a dot com and everything else. But I do
not know what my role is. But I'm excited to

(37:43):
do it, man, and it should be fun. Man, it's
something different, but I'm always trying to do something different. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
Absolutely, So you got the I'm just trying to run
through my head all the stuff you got going. You
got the elevation card that maybe will be on this
week and if not soon it's a business card that's digital.
Then you've got the Natural Guard training promos. You're a
former two time champ in improv now in Kansas City.
You guys did lose in your third attempt to try
to win it. What'd you think of improv?

Speaker 2 (38:12):
The improv was cool. Improv was cool, man, But that's
not what we did. If I'm being honest, that's not
what we were.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
You guys are preparing jokes or doing crowd work.

Speaker 2 (38:21):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, there we go that. That's not
we won off that, but that's not improv. And I
don't want to disrespect the improv. I wanted to actually
improv and we and we actually we did prefer jokes,
but we actually did some stuff. It was crazy. Is
the last time we went was the most improv ship

(38:42):
we did. If we lost, and I'm like, damn, man,
this was actually the best we've done. But we lost,
and and it was it was I felt like it
was still cool, but it was a great experience. I
would watch the arena down at the back of the line.
It made me like, man, maybe I should try it prov. Man,
I actually try it. Like when I say these guys

(39:03):
doing it, I was like, oh, okay, okay, this is
this is but this is something I wanted to do.
Give me a subject, paper towels. Okay, let me talk
about paper towels for the next two minutes. An improvit out.
I think that is sharp for my my crowd work.
I think I'll really get my crowd worker is gonna
get sharper if I could do some improv and actually

(39:25):
get into it. Man, I'm excited. Man, I'm definitely gonna
try it. I know Dylan had a class he was
doing for free on Mondays. I wish I would to
set a manager that I don't know, if she still
got it, I might hit him up. But I'm definitely
interested in improv.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Nice, that'll be funny. That just another tool in your toolbox.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
You know, yeah, man, definitely.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
So you've got you've got this growing love for improv.
You're in the National Guard training proplem youve got the
elevation card. But then you got a whole list of
comedy like stand up comment. You've got shows coming up
here in August August ninth at back Line in Omaha,
August eighteenth, your show, your YouTube show, Beyond the Laughter yep,

(40:08):
and then the big one August twenty second, in Chicago
at Bab's Comedy Club August twenty second. That'll be fun.

Speaker 2 (40:15):
I'm excited. I'm excited. I'm I'm excited. Chicago. I might
might spend a weekend there. I might have just spend
a data I haven't really, I haven't really decided. Oh man,
we'll see what happens. Man. I was actually because I
have my son something some weekends, you know what I mean.

(40:37):
But I know when I went to Chicago, I'm in
not Chicago. When I went to Michigan, I was that night,
spate tonight and then turn back around, I was ten hours.
Chicago's a stint of a half hour drivers is not
that bad. Yeah, Chicago's really and really once you crossed
the Chicago line, I think it takes an hour back.
So it'might be five and a half hour if I'm correct,

(41:00):
because when I went to Michigan and the time went back.
But I think it was once I was in Michigan.
I don't know if it was when I was in Illinois.
But that's besides the toy man basket coledy club.

Speaker 4 (41:09):
Man.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
This is why I tell people, Man, I'm no professional
like anything, but this is the same thing that pretty
much after Michigan. All right, quite about Batch back in March,
I said, I said, I said, damn, they never hit me.
I seen like Africa, but I've seen Avercas a couple
of times. I just thought they wasn't interested. So I
hit him up like, hey, guys, I was wondering, you

(41:31):
know what I mean, Like that's how you do it? Like, hey,
I was wander you know, I got a dated video
blah blah bah blah, you know, just because you know
if I could get spits. And they said, yeah, because
their last videos we just didn't understand it, and we
just we just didn't hit you. We didn't hit you back.
It was too much like we couldn't understand it or whatever.

(41:52):
I was like, oh, okay, so I said the new
video that folks that that hey, so I want to
come here, either the twenty second or the age. I like,
look about stuff out a little bit of so I'll
give it a twenty seconds, you know what I mean.
So I that's but that just shows you No doesn't
mean no, this means not right now. It hits them again,

(42:14):
It gets a goog, It hit him again, and then
hit him again. You know what I mean. Not necessarily
have to buzz people, but maybe it's something you did,
So prepare something great or prepare something better to hit
him again. It happened with Michigan. I didn't even look
for Michigan for a year year and a half. Right
when I first hit up Michigan is like, God, we'll see.
We gotta fit for you, but we don't really care

(42:34):
that much. Blah blah blah blah. Think about this game.
Then you gotta do free stuff. You gotta take ills.
This is you gotta do stuff with, not ask. This
is part of the game. So if get on what
the game is, is is needed that, don't do it.
I heard people I ain't doing that. It's free, all right,

(42:54):
You're gonna be local for the rest of your life.
You gotta do this free shit.

Speaker 5 (43:00):
To do that.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
Ship man twenty five dollars wins and you just drove
five hours. But that's part of the game. Man, you
gotta know what to do or what not to do.
You gotta know what's what's best for you, what's not
best for you, And sometimes that's just what it is.
I can't do fans. But when we did well, we
get their problem. We need to get paid for that. That. Oh,

(43:21):
when we get paid for that, you know what I mean?
That was a show right that that they was putting on,
and we volunteer to go down there. But I got
I gained some fans off of that. I had like,
I had six seven people fall. Seven people followed me.
Two of those girls that was on that stage, Hey,
what's your what's your content? Followed? They still like myself
to this day. Again, you can even choose the money,

(43:43):
or you can choose the all the work to work
after it's gonna come win it. Some people being one
one hundred and fifty hundred dollars for some local shit.
You're like, what for a local show? It's some common section.
They do circles around you and they don't even want
that much money, you know what I mean? I mean,
So you gotta we gotta find out which ones you want. Man,
So for Chicago, said they do that for me. So

(44:06):
I got a lot of minutes, but it's I get it.
Tee you to me to make it a pressure. So
if I could come back, you know what I mean. Yeah,
I'm hoping to knock it out in Chicago, man, I'm
hoping to have a good time. Man. I mean a
kids city. That's how I'm in. Chicago was like a
decade ago. So I feel like it's gonna be a
nice time. I'm gonna have fun. I'm gonna have fun

(44:28):
in the city, man, and Chicago. That's all I can
pretty much keep saying.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
It's gonna be awesome. Chicago, August twenty.

Speaker 2 (44:35):
Second, all the twenty second, man, And it'd be nice
to get to get a show, another show that Saturday,
or get a show coming back in ben Anslas. I
don't know. Maybe I'll just take a brid of the
Chicago all this twenty second baps Coopee Club on Big.

Speaker 1 (44:49):

that show. I'll be opening it and Vin Edwards will
be closed. It's gonna be a go on, a sweet,
sweet good show man, definitely a good show.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
I gotta ask you a question. So you've told me
this before, and this is, you know, kind of I
don't know if we've we've probably talked about it on
the podcast, but I know you and I have talked
about it off as well, where it's kind of like
sometimes you felt this that maybe you feel like you're
outside of the comedy scene a little bit, like you

(46:03):
don't feel like you're in it. I disagree to it
to an extent, but.

Speaker 2 (46:08):
To an extent that's a to an extent, I don't
want to cut you off my back you're good.

Speaker 1 (46:13):
And that's my point. I guess is that, like there's
limits to it, but like why do you feel that way,
and like what do you gain? Do you think you
gain from there or do you think it hurts you?
Like what's your I guess your thought process about that,
because I think it's interesting.

Speaker 2 (46:27):
I think I think anything you're in as far as
it take the wise And I'm not doing this. I
want to make this perfectly clear. I'm not going to
comedy shows or supporting comedy events to get booked. I'm
not doing that. I'm doing it simply to support comedy. Period.

(46:49):
It was at the Just Johnson and Round podcast, you
know what I mean. Yeah, at that at that event,
I heard that we were just there. It's supported, right, No,
I want I want to. I went to a tiny
house show light By you know, man, my mom's at
Peterson is supported. I man know a couple of shows
in the past like months, and it's and I always
tell myself, if I have time, I'm gonna be outside

(47:12):
and I'm gonna support other topics. And that's not necessarily
you gotta come support me. It's just this is this
is a comedy game. I'm coming to support and I
and I definitely think that's what we had. And even
when it comes to mics, you don't got to be
at mis all the vice every week. Let man hit
a mic mica or two at least once a week.
The the thing about me is, and I heard it

(47:34):
a good amount of times, is people know me, but
they don't know me. They've seen me on that, they
see me on social media, they see what I folks
to see. I got a lot of shows, but they
never see me in person. They never talk to me
really in person. They never interact with me in person.
So I'm like, you know, let me let me go outside, man,
let me go outside. Let me be on the feet.

(47:55):
I need to hit mike. I definitely be practiced. Everybody practiced,
you know what I mean, And let's let's hit the mic.
But there's some shows, support support other comments what they're doing,
and that should be a part of the scene. Man,
because is beautiful. Man, it's got a lot of great
comics in the scene, and it's got something okay, topics

(48:15):
of the sea. But because not everybody's gonna be not
everybody's gonna make it for whatever making it is, and
people it's different destinations to make it right. So it's
it's best people see you on social media, but I
hear it all the time, and man, it's good to
see you all. Man, it's great to see you out going. Man,
it's cool to see you here. Man, damn, man, Man,
what you're doing here? Oh man? It's cool to you know.

(48:37):
It's like so it's like I wasn't compared to like
Scott Hall going when people see me, but I compare
it to like Lex Lubers going to Yes, you know
what I'm saying, Like I wouldn't put it to the
net extent, but let's Luber is probably the better comparis
at the Sky Hall, Like, damn, what what is he

(48:59):
doing it? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (49:00):
He walks in on Monday night, on Monday night, drow and.

Speaker 2 (49:03):
It's like what in the mall? You know what I mean?
He has the white friend on with the you know
what the mind here? Now? I remember I hit the mic.
I was at the show. No I hit a mic.
You know, I'm not gonna say with what Some people
are scared like what is he doing here? Man? What

(49:24):
are you about to say?

Speaker 1 (49:25):
What's he doing?

Speaker 2 (49:25):
Man? Oh man? Man? Me Still, I'm like, man, I got,
I ain't got to be. And also regards of what
you see, I don't got to be. I don't got
no possle nobody. I just like, I don't got no
beat pretty big.

Speaker 1 (49:39):
You got no beef for anybody right now?

Speaker 2 (49:42):
No beef, no big.

Speaker 1 (49:43):
Interesting.

Speaker 2 (49:45):
If the guy was like, hey, man, he's comfort to
the word that you're in, I said, what, I don't know,
but you got scared? Man? What I'm like, bro, I'm
just in the new jokes man, Like for real, they
was really shook. It was really shipped for what he
told me. And I'm like, you playing around here, man,
like they scared. But it was just like, man, that's

(50:05):
the image that they have and that's sad because I
want to scare this body.

Speaker 4 (50:09):
That's wild.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
Yeah it's funny, but yeah, no no beef, no beef nobody.

Speaker 1 (50:14):
Like we went to like you were saying, we went
to Zach and Jocelyn's live podcast that heard that. I
just thought it was cool, Like I wanted to go
support it and see the show. Like I've you know,
I've watched their show or I've listened to their shows before,
but I it was cool that they were doing it
in the bar and I was like, yeah, one hundred
percent want to go support this. And it was convenient

(50:34):
for me. The time of day was so it was like,
all right, it makes sense, Like let's go.

Speaker 2 (50:37):
Yeah, very very convenient. I was like, man, I get
off early. Just that's literally an exit down I work at.
He said fifteen minutes on my on my GPS. As
soon as I started driving, it said seven minutes. I'm like, yeah,
this is it. Really. I felt like it could get
a long way. I said, I could have just went
to I could have just went toss down there and

(50:59):
I would have been down. It took me all the
way around, and you'd even take me the highway. It
took me around, you know what I mean. So yeah, man,
it's just a support man, and it's import people, man.
And if people don't like you, just keep you moving.
I can have a discussion, and I've had a couple
of discussions past month with a couple of comments that
I felt, you know, had a problem or a situation,

(51:21):
and I discussed it. Either talk about it. We can
be friends and we can talk about it and we
can still be cool and get cordial. But I just
can't mess with it. That's my drop out of two
shows you know recently. That's just you know, friends are
gonna be friends, but friends don't friends talk talk about situations,
talk about problem. Friends don't tell other people about it,

(51:43):
and they don't resolve that. It isn't stay talking to
you your face. I don't. I didn't support that. So
I dropped out of two shows. And that was just
out of mere respect. You're not just goldn't do that.
And I still respect that person. I just don't respect
that they did.

Speaker 1 (51:58):
Yeah, respect person, Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:02):
The messenger's cool, but the message you will saying what's
false advertised with. Let's let's stop because I'm not gonna
tell you all the business you was telling me, but
you were. You thought it was great to tell my business,
which is a little way to me. So you know,
I'm not a comedy call. I need to stay friends
with you to get a comedy show. No, let me

(52:23):
stay friends with you because I need these shows. I
never need a show. My respect is.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
Yeah, your work will get you the shows. Yeah, what
what a good friend would do. And this is remember
I told you, this is what I do for you
as a fellow Ginger. You can use the hard R
for me for Ginger anytime. I just I want to
put that back out there again that I appreciate you.
You can use that anytime with me.

Speaker 2 (52:47):
You that line. Man, you know you're gonna get your
podcast canceled. Don't laugh for me, you know what I mean?
That's that's man.

Speaker 1 (53:01):
This is episode ninety nine. I'm gonna get canceled right
before one hundred. I can just feel it.

Speaker 2 (53:06):
I know we were, I know we were.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
No, this is ninety nine, This is ninety nine. Yeah,
you should have skipped this one again, and then we
could have had you on for a hundred. Yeah, like
like you won't be invited onto one hundred.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
Come on. Yeah. But man, I thought she was me
talking about stuff, man, he asked me. Man, Yeah, what
was going on with the hundred?

Speaker 1 (53:30):

Speaker 1 (53:33):
Gonna do a bit.

Speaker 2 (53:35):
Man, what's up? Man?

Speaker 1 (53:37):
Well, that's the thing. I'd be lying if I said
I also wasn't excited to go see Zach and Jocelyn's
podcast so that I could watch how they did it,
because we gotta do Live with Me Live, and uh,
the plan was always episode one hundred. Here's what I'm thinking.
It's gonna be an one hundred episode celebration live show.

(53:58):
So we're gonna do one hundred. It's gonna to be
different than like this. It's gonna be a special episode.
But we're still gonna have the live show. It's gonna
be a celebration of one hundred episodes. Does that make sense?

Speaker 2 (54:10):
So, so it's gonna be a celebration. So we're doing
it live, but it ain't gonna be live.

Speaker 1 (54:14):
So yeah, well there's gonna be an audience. No, no, no,
there's gonna be an audience. We're doing a live show.
It's gonna be it's gonna be different than just the
regular podcast.

Speaker 2 (54:21):
So so when where why I got you know what?

Speaker 1 (54:26):
Yeah, yeah, I got you. We're gonna get the date
that work?

Speaker 2 (54:30):
No, no, no, no, I'm not talking about me, old man.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
Why I couldn't.

Speaker 2 (54:38):
Yes, line up be we need descend advice. We need
about thirty forty people there like we need we need
all man, we need we need a date. Yeah, today,
this is ninety nine and this is a live twenty

(54:59):
seven Yep, you ain't to hear it it? Hold off?
You know what are we doing? Man? Yeah? You know
what I mean?

Speaker 1 (55:08):
Yeah, this is definitely a live show that you know.
I just I don't want to spoil the surprise coming
on episode one. I just want to put that out there.

Speaker 2 (55:19):
But so you're gonna do You're gonna do one hundred,
but you're gonna celebrate it later.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Correct, Come on, come on, come on, No, it's gonna
be it's gonna be different. It's not gonna just be
a live podcast. It will be a live podcast, but
it's gonna be more than that. It's gonna be a show.
It's gonna be it's gonna be different. It's gonna be big.
It's gonna be big. Okay, have you ever heard somebody

(55:46):
be like, it's gonna be big. Have you ever heard
somebody say that.

Speaker 2 (55:52):
Everybody?

Speaker 1 (55:53):
Well, the president, the president, Oh, we have more presidents.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
Oh, the current president president to be if Obama right now.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
I call him the president. Yeah, I would call him
the president as well. Yeah, I still call him president
as well. But now that's uh is it? Is it
weird that I don't call Biden president. I call him
uncle Joe.

Speaker 2 (56:19):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (56:20):
Yes, I don't really call him that.

Speaker 2 (56:24):
I know you don't.

Speaker 1 (56:27):
I love how you let me say all those things
about whole Koga and no Jay Simpson. But don't funk
with Joe Biden like he's the President.

Speaker 2 (56:34):
Biden.

Speaker 1 (56:37):
Yeah that's true. Hey, I've got respect for the office. Yeah,
so on episode one hundred, we're gonna have some news.
You're going to be a part of this thing. I
don't know why you're getting so upseted.

Speaker 2 (56:47):
I didn't say I wasnt gonna be a part of it.
But it's not about what she what she got planned.
It's about the execution plan.

Speaker 1 (56:55):
Oh I'm not scared of execution. I am the excellence
of execution. Not Brett Hart.

Speaker 2 (57:05):
Who was Brett Hart? Yeah, I know he said that.
I was about to say, what's funny? He was? He
was one of my favorite wrestlers ever will be.

Speaker 1 (57:17):
I should have said that line, you would have.

Speaker 2 (57:19):
Yeah, I know that. Look the shadows man maybe look
against him and all of them a lot different. I
was so.

Speaker 1 (57:30):
I love that stuff, though, like the behind the scenes stuff,
Like I was mad too because it's like they're dissing
on and they're really like taking advantage of a guy's
like life in his professional career. Like that was some bullshit.

Speaker 2 (57:43):
But he just he just wasn't just saying, man, Yeah,
it was a fan. I hated a fan. I hated.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
So people say his career ended when Goldberg kicked right,
kicked the concussion.

Speaker 2 (58:03):
Yeah, that's what they say, but let's be honest. It
wasn't when he walked when he walked into w c
W y well.

Speaker 1 (58:11):
Even before then, when he had the entire Montreal screw job.
I think that messed with him mentally and then.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
But that that didn't what he should have did, what
was best for business, right, and they couldn't and they
couldn't afford burn Hard. According to them, they just couldn't
what the w c W was paying guys. And you
only had to work two days a week as the
w W schedule, which was w W and it worked

(58:41):
like a week, you know what I mean. So it's
like it's like the schedule was better and the paint
was better. But even the Montreal screw job. I love
burn Hart, I love what he was talking about, but
do we see this man literally saying no for him?
The drop felt the next night, Oh ball, I don't

(59:03):
really see Ben saying, nah, you can't do that, you
need to drop it tonight. And he was afraid that
he was gonna do like a Medusa type thing and
throw them in trash. Her heart wasn't that type of
guy though, Why would he throw it in the trash
when he still had in his contract left after the manto?
So they like, you can take it with her. You
know what I mean to do with Medusa's contract inspired
And they didn't know she went to WW she'd do

(59:25):
that thing in the tracks. You see what I'm saying.

Speaker 1 (59:27):
Yeah, I see you're saying. But I would still be
afraid of my champion doing that. Okay, not because.

Speaker 2 (59:35):
Okay, but but I don't got to cut you off.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
No, you're good, You're good. I just it's just not.

Speaker 2 (59:43):
Yea. Is she hall of famer? Is she? What is she?
Hall of fame? Is Medusa hall of fame?

Speaker 4 (59:55):
I think she is?

Speaker 2 (59:59):
Okay, but we'll look good up.

Speaker 4 (01:00:02):
Look at that place.

Speaker 2 (01:00:04):
Yeah, I don't. I don't know if she's actually has
an iconic match, actually wrestled, actually wrestled right WrestleMania. Does
anybody really even know? What if? But also, walk down
the street right now, do you know what she looks like?

Speaker 1 (01:00:21):
I think I would, well, I guess how she looked.

Speaker 2 (01:00:24):
Stop stop stop. I don't even remember how she looked
back then you want to be on the top ten
woman ship, you know whatever? Back then, stop it. Fred
Harp is trustworthy, he's loyal. He's not about to take
the belt and go do that. He wouldn't do that.
Let me tell you he was letting him. He wouldn't
do that. So why would you not trust this man?

(01:00:48):
You trust someone else to give the belt, won't trust
someone else to give it back.

Speaker 9 (01:00:52):
I don't know you got but again, you gotta do
it was best for business man, It was best for business,
was dropping that belt man. But as much as I
hate to even say that, that was the best business,
drop that belt man.

Speaker 2 (01:01:06):
That was best for business. But you didn't do that,
and we got to my from the school drop, which
till this day people say they don't know if it's real,
or they don't know if it's safe, you know what
I mean?

Omaha, So absolutely absolutely, I mean you got to you
got great, great promos. Man, I love doing your thing.
I might have, you know, I don't think I don't
want to even told the podcast. I got an idea.
Hopefully I can stay consistent with it. I wanted the
podcast might be something like daily talking about relevant topics

(01:03:30):
and everything like that. I got. I got two ideas.
I really hope one of them because I mean, come on,
I'm trying to get like a home to be honest
with you may not necessarily what you're doing with like
a home type studio to really get it going, man,
you know, to get people people wrapped up. And I
want to have women and men be related to it

(01:03:51):
because I wanted to do a sports thing, but that
just will relate to men. And I was like, man,
I really like to have both type of audiences. Man,
So I want to have a show that's like have
relevant topics I do every other day. Who I want
to talk about relationship stuff, which I'm single, so it's
sort of hard to really do that. I'm maybe easy.
And it's called red Flag. You know what happened podcast

(01:04:13):
called red Flag? You know, people tell me about what
they do with the red flag and the person that's
talks to when I give advice. But I'm at the
dogs man about whole So I don't know if that's
that's great.

Speaker 1 (01:04:24):
We could talk about like love Island for like, you know,
tough stuff that we're attracted to the female audience. We
can talk about Love Island.

Speaker 2 (01:04:33):
You do what you want ship. So I got some
I got some ideas. I didn't really want to talk
about it too much because we get talking and you
know what happened, you know, it's all talk. Noticecuse the man.
So that's definitely where I'm at, man, But I appreciate
you man as always. They laugh at me. Podcasts the

(01:04:57):
