Speaker 1 (00:01):
Mexico.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
Why are you still speaking that that should not have
made it to the rest of us. This is Inside Thoughts.

Speaker 3 (00:16):
Check check check one two three. Welcome back to Inside Thoughts.
Appreciate you for pressing play. Got a cool interview for
you at the end of the podcast with comedian Angelo
Johnson reyes Uh. She was super cool. Say super cool again,
you dumb mass Yeah, my bad. Now she was nice
to talk to. So got that for you at the end. Sorry,

(00:37):
I'm sitting in my car, Bacon right now. I'm doing
the podcast from the car because I had to drive
down to Nashville to do seven minutes on a show
at Zany's so.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
That hopefully I could kill and then Zanies will I be.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
Cut back and actually give me enough money to drive
down to Dashville. You gotta do it, though, You gotta
do it like it's it's just one of those things,
man like when you're trying to do something that like
there's not an actual job structure for like, well, if
you hit your KPIs this year, we can get to

(01:16):
via a promotion and you get a company vehicle. It's like, no,
I just gotta go places and hopefully be funny enough
in front of the right people where they're like, oh yeah,
we'll watch you do this whenever you want now, And
it sucks because like I'm still I'm like a C
plus comedian, where like there will be nights I'll go out,

(01:36):
I will fucking murder, I'll be like I'm the funniest
person ever walked the planet. And then there's some nights
where you know, you're like, I feel like I told
the jokes the same exact way and they just didn't.
It didn't happen. I don't know what I did, and
everybody's looking at you like I'm like, oh, all right,

(01:57):
my bad. It's the consistent see.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
You know. It's also like I'm on this show tonight.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
And I'm wondering what the audience is gonna be like,
because I can come off as pretty abrasive, you know
what I mean. I like dark humor, but you know,
abrasively dark humor. And this show, the lineup is all women,
which is good women empowerment, but I just I feel

(02:29):
like I could either be a good change of pace
in the lineup or the people in the audience are
expecting to only hear jokes from women, and I'm gonna
go out there and they're gonna be like.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
No, don't like this, get out of here.

Speaker 3 (02:45):
Oh my bad. Sorry, So we'll see how it goes.
But it's fun driving down to do what I gotta do.
Been all over the place the last last week, I
guess over the weekend, me and Ames went to Orlando
to meet.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Her parents.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
They came over from England to go to Orlando and
do like all the Disney parks and the water parks.

Speaker 1 (03:12):
And stuff like that.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
So we went down to meet them and it was
it was a lot of fun. Like it's hilarious traveling
with Aby though, because I like, I've been flying on
planes since I was like two, you know what I mean.
I didn't always have like an actual ticket. We do
stand by, which is basically just trying to hitch hike

(03:36):
on a bus.

Speaker 1 (03:37):
We were like, can I get on this one? Okay,
I'll wait for the next one. Can I get on
this one? All right? Please let me on this one?
Like all right, you can get on this one, but
sit in the back, you poor fuck.

Speaker 3 (03:47):
You're like okay, but like I'm used to, you know,
you go into the airport and especially like you know,
TSA most of the time they're pretty aggressive, like they
just they got to deal with stupid people all day.
Every once in a while, you'll get like one of
those happy go lucky TSA people where they're just like,

(04:07):
I love my job, how are you today? Where are
you going? Oh that sounds fun like that kind of stuff.
But for the most part, you know TSA agents, it's
just like they got to meet every single person who
doesn't know how to, you know, not walk through the
metal detector with a belt on. And they're also like

(04:31):
an airport's just like a fancy bus station, so stupid
people are going through. They're like, I'm going to Florida.
They're like, I don't give a shit, dude, this is
my nine to five. Can you please just follow direction?
You're fucking off the line, dude. And then they also
like have to get yelled at from their bosses where
they're like, hey, don't bring in or don't let anybody
bring in any kind of weapons, batteries or liquid. Why

(04:55):
the liquid because somebody tried to make a bomb one time.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
Don't do it.

Speaker 3 (05:00):
Get me such like a rule follower, like I just
I don't give a fuck, Like tell me. Sometimes you
walk through TSA and they're like, all right, laptops out,
and then other times they're like why would you take
your laptop out?

Speaker 1 (05:10):
Like, I don't know that. You guys change the rules
every once in a while. I don't know.

Speaker 3 (05:14):
Hold on a second, I gotta fucking turn the air
conditioning on or something. Oh is it gonna make that
sound while I'm doing this? I might just have to
swet balls in here. I don't hear it that much.
It makes like a frequency sound when I turn my
car on, Like the microphone doesn't like my car.

Speaker 1 (05:33):
I can't hear it that much. It's it's fine.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
But yeah, so Amy will just be like, you know,
getting all her stuff together and like paying attention way
before we get up to the line, like do you
have your driver's license? Like, yeah, where is it? It's
my wallet, where's that? It's in my pocket? Get it out.
We have ten more minutes to staying in this line. No,

(05:58):
She's like the TSA agents thy scare me. They're so
mean because they deal with the dumbest people on the
planet all day. And then like we get through TSA
and normally like if I'm flying by myself, regardless of
what my ticket says, I'm getting on the plane last.

Speaker 1 (06:17):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (06:18):
Like, what am I rushing to get on the plane
for If I have a ticket, if it's stand by,
it's different.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
I'm going to the gate.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
I'm like looking up at the screen checking to see
if my name got passed.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
But if I have a.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Ticket, like I already know my tickets in the back,
I'm not trying to like get on the plane early
and get to my seat first and be all hopeful
that there's not some fat bastard that's gonna sit next
to me and fart the whole plane ride. So I'm
just like, yeah, I'm gonna zone two. Yeah, I'm Zone two.
Am I getting on the plane? No, I'm waiting until

(06:51):
the zone six because I it doesn't matter, you know
what I mean.

Speaker 1 (06:55):
But Ames is like, no, we have to get.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
On the plane when our ticket says no, no, we don't.
You have no reason to be sitting there for an
extra thirty minutes.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
I don't care.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
I'm gonna walk on the plane last. I got my
one bag, I'm gonna put it under my chair. I
don't need overhead ben compartment space. You know what I mean,
I'm getting on the plane last. But we got there
and it was it was super fun. We went to
uh Epcot and drank around the world and I got
told multiple times to stop doing accents. I mean, like

(07:27):
I get a couple of them, you know, like don't
do them. Like we went through China and Japan and
Ames was like, no, we don't do that, Like, yeah,
you're right. But then like we got the Morocco and
I gotta be honest, I don't know what a Moroccan
accent sounds like.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
So I was like, is it.

Speaker 3 (07:44):
Like this, buddy, I don't know what it is, you
know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (07:49):
So I was just like rocco. But it was fun.

Speaker 3 (07:53):
We actually like we were going through I forget what
ride we were getting on.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
I think we were in norwiy Jah and uh was
it Norway?

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, and we're like going on the Frozen ride and
it's obviously a ride for little kids because Frozen Disney.
But we're saying in line and we're like in front
of this family of four that has two like feral
children that are just running all in and out of
the line like they're excited to be at Disney. So
you wanted to let it go at first, but it

(08:28):
started getting a wool annoying, you know what I mean,
because they're just like running in between your legs and
doing all that kind of shit, and the parents aren't
saying anything, so like we're just kind of looking at
each other like, uh, when we're parents, we're gonna beat
our children, you know.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Doing that shit.

Speaker 3 (08:44):
And like these kids were literally two inches away from
us the whole time, just running around. Parents weren't saying anything,
and I like went to stretch my back and I
like elbowed this one little kid.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
There were two two boys.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
I elbowed the oldest boy so hard, like I thought
I might have given him a concussion. Like I made
solid contact, like UFC spinning elbow type contact.

Speaker 1 (09:11):
I felt so bad. I turned around, was.

Speaker 3 (09:12):
Like, oh shit, bro, you okay, My bad, My bad,
And he just like he was stunned. I don't know
if I like knocked the words out of his brain
or he was just like he'd never been hit before.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
Obviously he's never been hit before.

Speaker 3 (09:22):
His parents were letting him run around, but just you know,
I like felt bad, but he didn't cry or anything,
and then he didn't run around the rest of the time.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
So I was like, oh, okay, fix that. The little
one was still running around.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
We had this bottle of water and Ames was like, hey,
we hold this for me, and I was like yeah,
And I was like trying to flip it from one
hand to the other, and I like missed because I'm
an athlete, and I tried to catch it, and I
just like, as I was trying to catch it, just
the most unathletic move, just threw the water bottle right

(09:56):
in the youngest kid's face and just smacked him with
the water bottle, and like everybody saw, Like the parents
didn't see the first elbow.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
They saw this.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Amy's parents saw Amy's looking at me, and I was like,
I am so sorry, and the parents just started laughing.
They're like ah, and then they start speaking Russian. I
was like, oh, that makes sense, that's why you're not
mad at me.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Like, did you touch my child? Don't touch my child?

Speaker 3 (10:22):
They were like, yes, beat him please. If you don't
beat him, we make him fight better when we gets home. Okay,
he's acting footy. But so I beat the fuck out
of two kids in the Frozen line. It did not
all purpose, it just it happened, man. But yeah, drinking
around the world was it was all fun and games,

(10:45):
like Ames was having a good time, she was putting
up with my Shenanigans. And then we got to France,
and I gotta be honest, I have never seen somebody
speak more disrespectfully to another human being than Ames talking
to this French that was serving us drinks, like because
their actual Like Amy was telling me that Disney like

(11:09):
does these programs where like they bring college kids from
the countries to work at Disney in like the Epcot
countries so that it's more authentic for when we travel,
so I don't have to go to France or Germany.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
I can just speak to a French or German person
and say I did it. I'm will travel.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
So we actually had like this French girl serving us drinks,
and you know, we walk over and we're already I
don't know, seven eight drinks deep, so we're probably being
drunk assholes, and I go, hey, can I get one
of the gray Goose women slushies? And she was like yes,
like just nothing, not a welcome to franced none of that.

Speaker 1 (11:56):
It was just yes. So Amy he starts looking at
this girl like, oh, I hate the French or hates.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
Him so then uh, we were like splitting drinks at
that point because Amy was worried I was gonna be
just too much of a drunk asshole.

Speaker 1 (12:14):
So she was like, can we get another extra cop
and she goes no. She's like, please, let me ask,
and she just asked the dude right next to her
send me a Pooh Bear extra glass.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
And the guy was like no, so she goes no,
and she was like, I don't understand why I can't.
Like she turned. She went from British to white girl
real quick. At first.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
It was like, can I please have another glass?

Speaker 3 (12:40):
And she said no twice and she was like I
don't understand why I can't have another glass and it's
not coming out of your paycheck two of that thing.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
So I started cracking up.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
And then the girl was like pouring the drink and
like spilled some of it and she started laughing and
aimes like the the fuck fake lasses like ah, and
then took the drink and walked away, and she was.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
Like, god fucking I fucking hate the.

Speaker 3 (13:09):
French and I just I don't understand why the English
hate France so much. I know they fought wars like
way back in the day, and French are just insufferable
people to the rest of it. But I didn't understand
it until we went on Tron.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
I forget what park he was in, like Magic Kingdom
or something the next day. So this whole time, I'm
not understanding why Ames hates French people. And then we
go to Magic Kingdom. We're riding Tron, which, by the way,
super cool ride. You know, you get on like a
well bike and it straps you in and you get scared.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
You're like, is this gonna hold me? Or am I
gonna fly off?

Speaker 4 (13:49):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (13:50):
I don't have great insurance, but it's super fun.

Speaker 3 (13:53):
But we were standing in this line is like forty
five minute wait and it's one hundred degrees outside, and
every time we weave through the line, we just get
like a whiff of ass, you know what I mean,
like when someone's just got some terrible bo Like.

Speaker 1 (14:05):
Who's the who is that?

Speaker 3 (14:07):
We finally figured out it's this guy that obviously smells terrible,
but it was weird, Like he wasn't like a super
big guy, he didn't look dirty.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
He was just normal looking dude, but he smelled like shit.

Speaker 3 (14:20):
And he had a girl with him, and I was
thinking like, how does she not throw deodorant at that guy?
She gets naked with him. They're at Disney together, you
know what I mean. Not once has she been like, baby,
go take a shower. You smell like shit, you know
how you get when the sun comes out one of
those things. And then we get farther on wine, you know,

(14:41):
trying to weave out of the ass smell, and we
hear him talking and they're like, it might be a
mussy and we're like, oh, they're French.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
They don't shower. That's what it is.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
That's what it is, stinky French bastard. I started getting
a hate for the French right there. But we finally
get on Tron and that guy and his girl got seated.
A couple rows about in front of us, and Tron
shoots you through a tunnel. It's a roller coaster, it
shoots you through. And as it was shooting us through,

(15:17):
the smell hit us in the face and then he
put his arms up and it got worse and aims
and her mom at the same time both yell.

Speaker 1 (15:25):
Put your arms down. I felt like.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
The fish in the SpongeBob episode where SpongeBob's got bad breath,
but he thinks he's ugly.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
Where he goes up, he goes, am I ugly and
the guy goes my eyes.

Speaker 3 (15:42):
My eyes, that's what like. It was just singing ass
to the face. So now I don't like French people. Either,
take a shower, bro, it's not that hard. Get in,
let stuff follow on you.

Speaker 1 (15:55):
It's fine. Oh man.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
French people were the most annoying people at UH. At
Disney though, it was like it blows my mind because
they exist all over the place.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
But like the Jim bros.

Speaker 3 (16:13):
Thinking they're big walking around you're like, you know, holding
their arms out like they're doing it at Disney, walking
like down the pathway or whatever, not getting out of
the way, cause them big as fuck.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
I don't have manners, dude, mive move shranty.

Speaker 3 (16:30):
And the thing was the I'm not talking about like
actual like bodybuilders. You know, like you go to a gym,
you see somebody huge, You're like, okay, Arnold Schwarzenegger, I
get it, you're big. But those guys are normally not
the problem. I'm talking about the dudes that go in
just do biceps, you know what I mean. Yeah, and
I'll I'll do the lap pull down dead my laps.

(16:50):
Are those guys walk around bowing their arms out like
my arms are too big? I can't put them at
my side. You're not that big, dude, have some manners, move.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Just like I. Those are the worst types of people
to me.

Speaker 3 (17:07):
It's like, you're not actually huge, first of all, and
second of all, you can move your shoulders. Man, are
you not doing any kind of stretching? Are your shoulders
too tight? You can't like maneuver your way out out
of the way when someone's walking down the sidewalk. No, dude,
gotta walk three wide. Me and my bros big as fuck,

(17:27):
do you. We're gonna jerk each other off later with
some creatine powder. It's crazy, dude. Those people are worse,
worse than French people. And then uh yeah, so Disney
was fun. It's fun as an adult should get to
drink alcohol, except there was no alcohol and Magic Kingdom.
And that was the first time I ever felt like
an alcoholic. I was like looking for it. I was

(17:51):
walking up to like the chio stand. I was like,
you gotta sell beer, and they go no beer here.
It was like, oh, come on, not even like a
little one, Like, no, dude, this is for kids.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
Like, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
And then they were doing the out in front of
like the Magic Kingdom Castle. They were doing the uh
like the shows out there. I wanted to go up
and just ask Mickey. Mickey and Minnie were out there,
and like, hey, Mickey, come on, bro, I know you.
I know you got some beer in the castle. Let
me get one.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
Oh no, not here. That was stupid. I'm sorry for
doing that, but uh yeah, it was good.

Speaker 3 (18:26):
And then leaving, I was my flight was supposed to
be at like three point thirty. I didn't end up
leaving until nine o'clock. It kept getting delayed, which sucked,
but I was like, eh, it is what it is.
But I got I got super nervous because about an
hour into the delay, you know, you're just people watching.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
You're looking around.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
I see a grown man, white man, what man, wearing
a Burger King crown on his head, no kids with him.
I was like, oh, no, it's gonna he's gonna say it.

Speaker 1 (19:03):
Dude.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
If you know what I'm talking about, you're on the
internet too much. If you don't, that means you probably
still got a brain. But like three four years ago,
there was this video of this old guy, old white
guy wearing a Burger King crown, just streaming racial slurs.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
On an airplane.

Speaker 3 (19:24):
And so now, like if you get on Twitter and
you see somebody post that meme, You're like, oh, you're
come on, bro.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
But I've never seen one of these people out in
the wild.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
Like I've seen, you know, grown adults participating with their kids,
you know what I mean, wearing the Burger King crown.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
Like hey, we're all, we're all a royal family. Let's
get a whopper, kiddos.

Speaker 3 (19:45):
Like I'm seen, Like, I've never seen a psycho just
wearing a Burger King crown. This guy paid taxes, he
had rent payments, no kids, wearing a Burger King crown.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
I was like, oh, no, he's gonna do it. He's
gonna do it.

Speaker 3 (20:00):
And then he got on the plane before me, because
I told you I'm getting on the plane last.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
I'm not waiting. And I walked past him.

Speaker 3 (20:07):
He's sitting next to a black dude in the emergency
exit and we had been delayed for almost six hours.
I was like, please, got and I stared at him
and started laughing, and the black guy caught my eye
and I think he had been on the internet as
much as me, because he he wasn't gonna do with
the burg king hat, like, yeah, I know, but nothing happened, thankfully,

(20:29):
So maybe maybe the world is here healing. Oh my god,
I'm sweating, dude, it's gonna be a better I'm I'm
gonna be like a French person when I get into
this comedy show here. Oh man, all right, let's uh,
let's do your headline of the week and then oh,
real quick, I forgot I forgot about this. Our our

(20:50):
apartment has like a community message board where people just
go on there and bitch and like you get you
get the emails every time someone complains.

Speaker 1 (21:02):
It's like, oh, so and So's signed a new message
on the community board. You want to check it.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
Out, Like, yeah, I have nothing else to do, I'll
read this. And it's just always people just saying the
most ridiculous stuff, and Amy won't let me. You can
leave comments under people's posts, and Amy won't let me
do it.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
She was like, people are gonna find out where we live. Okay,
don't do that.

Speaker 3 (21:22):
But this guy, this guy left this message about not
being able to find a parking space in our apartment
complex because there's this there's this brewery that we share
a parking lot with because it's right next to the
apartment's super good brewery, and like, yeah, sometimes people like

(21:43):
take spaces and you know, you just find another parking space.
There's never not parking at our apartment. But this guy
posted this message. Anybody else totally fed up with the
king jug parking nightmare.

Speaker 1 (21:56):
That's the brewery.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
I shouldn't have to work twelve hours a day and
two hundred yards just to get home at night. Two
hundred yards. That's a lot, man, he goes every night.
I count five to ten cars parked in our spaces
with no way to report it because the office is closed.
Insanity that a quote luxury apartment can't defend its parking

(22:19):
from a business that shares the leasing office. Low low IQ.
By the way, the place we live is not luxury.
We got this was the cheapest place that had a pool,
you know what I mean. We got this place to
save money. So I wanted to comment. I was like,
that's fucking ridiculous. You're taking your time out of your
day to post on the community board to nobody like,

(22:39):
and nobody commented. Nobody Hiti like or anything. Everybody was
just like, yeah, you're fair. I wanted to comment and
be like walking two hundred yards huh, you'd be out
of breath, right, I thought that was it was stupid,
but I just want to be like, yeah, just say
you're fat, dude, you know what I mean? Also a
certain ram if to roll the windows up. Oh be
sweating all right? Well uh oh, this rain's really coming down.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
Maybe it'll clear the humidity out.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
We needed this ring Hold on, Amy, hold on one second, hey, Ames,

(24:09):
But by the way, do not get ozepic for your pet.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
All right.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
Your pet doesn't do anything. It doesn't need to look fuckable,
It doesn't need to be healthy. It's not staying alive
for kids or grandkids. The dog or cat is gonna
live ten to fifteen years regardless.

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Okay, if it's a little fat, good, let it be
fat and happy.

Speaker 3 (24:30):
Because my cat sits at home, it plays, it looks
out the window, and it eats food. That's all it does. Well,
it poops too, but you're gonna take that away from him.
Putting your dog on a diet.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
My dog's super skinny. What do you want to fuck
your dog? It's weird. Lets your dog be fat. Fat
dogs are fat. Animals are awesome. Let's your dog be fat.
All right.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
Let's get into this interview with comedian actress podcaster Angela
Johnson Reyes.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
What's going on, Angela?

Speaker 4 (25:00):
Hey, not much, you know, talking.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
To you, just chilling, all right, So how's the how's
the tour been going so far.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
You got your.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
Family Reunion tour going all over the country. You're coming
here in October. What's it been like.

Speaker 4 (25:13):
It's been great. It's my first time traveling with my
entire family on a bus, so it's like a family
band just going all across the country. And that's you know,
the family Reunion tour. I'm gonna bring my family, You
bring your family, and let's meet up at the theater
and have a good time. And that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
That's awesome.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
It's gotta make it feel like a family vacation, like, Okay,
mom's got to go work real quick, but when we
get back, we're go figure out what the cool stuff
to do.

Speaker 1 (25:40):
And whatever city we're.

Speaker 4 (25:41):
In is, oh, totally. We've been to so many kids
museums across this country it's not even funny. And then also,
just like family reunion, we brought our corn hole out
on the bus, nice and we started doing this cornhole
competition with my husband. My husband is the champion of
our family reunion cornhole game. Nice, and so we're like,

(26:01):
what if my husband like battles people across the country,
and so we'll pull out the corn hall put it
out in front of the venue and be like, yo,
who wants to battle my husband? When I tell you,
no one has beat my husband yet, not one person
across the country.

Speaker 3 (26:17):
Wild, there's some fighting words up here. We gotta find
the best corn holers. That that sounds weird to say,
but we got to find someone good to play him.

Speaker 4 (26:26):
Do it please? Somebody come now?

Speaker 3 (26:30):
You you said you know you got your whole family
with you. Your dog comes on stage with you at
the end of show. Sometimes too, does your dog realize
that it's famous?

Speaker 4 (26:41):
He is the star of the show. He knows my set,
he knows when I'm doing my last joke. We have
video of him. He'll be asleep in the green room,
just like chilling. And as soon as he hears my
last joke, he pops up and he runs like getting
ready to go to the stage. And so my road
manager will then hold him side stage, otherwise he'd run

(27:03):
out there. So she'll hold him side stage. And as
soon as I say Mantela Johnson, thank you good night,
he comes running out there.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
That is awesome.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
I'm glad he's still excited about it too, you know,
like he's not acting like a you know bitter comedian.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
He's gone through the motions a million times. He's like,
hu ah, right, this.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
Is the last year I got to get out there.
He's still excited about it. That's awesome.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, this again. I let me go do
my thing. I'll be back for meeting.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Great, that's awesome.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
So I also saw, unfortunately, you're collecting a bunch of
salsa going around the country and you lost some what
do you remember what states salsa you lost?

Speaker 4 (27:40):
Devastating It was all the way from Denver through New Mexico,
all throughout Texas. Oh no, And we had saved up
all these jars and we were gonna do like a
fun little like taste tester thing. And it was like
local salsas to these areas. It's not like you could
just go get it up the grocery store, right, and
so excited in the bottom of the box that was

(28:04):
holding all the salsas broke and they just fell and
they all broke. I was so sad. I think one
of them managed to survive.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
That staks and like you lost the good sauces too,
Like from New Mexico to Texas. It's not like you
lost one from Wisconsin or Ohio. You know what I mean,
Like you lost.

Speaker 4 (28:21):
This was the salsa of the salsa. This is about
to be this is going to change my life.

Speaker 1 (28:28):
Oh man, I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (28:29):
Well, hopefully you can find some good saucer here and
keep it in a not wooden container that the bottom
doesn't fall out of.

Speaker 4 (28:37):
I'll be honest. They don't have high hopes for salsa
over there, but we got you.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah, I mean, I'm not.

Speaker 3 (28:45):
I'm not gonna go out on a limb and say
it's salsa. But there's there's some okay spots you might
find something, all rightom there, have you googled Indianapolis yet?

Speaker 1 (28:57):
I know you like to do that when you go
to different haven't.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
Yet, But as the time gets closer, I'll start getting
all my facts on my ducks in a row. See
what happens.

Speaker 3 (29:08):
All right, Well, I will tell you the everybody here
is super friendly, Like even the homeless people are really nice.
So that's something to look forward to.

Speaker 4 (29:17):
Oh yeah, I actually have experienced that really. Oh yeah,
standing outside of our tour bus last time we were
there and they there was a couple of people that
were homeless and they brought me gifts and it was
very nice.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
That's all to see.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
We got the friendliest homeless people in the country. That's
that's something to write home about.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
I love that. I love that.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
For you guys, I do have to ask, because you've
been like killing it for so long, is it if
you're just giving advice to somebody, would you say it's
harder to get started or harder to keep it once
you have it?

Speaker 4 (29:55):
In your opinion, keep it once you have it. When
you're just getting started, you're hungry, You're like, I'm down
for whatever. Yeah, I'll drive all the way across town
to go.

Speaker 5 (30:04):
Do three minutes on stage, and like, you have this
drive in you because you haven't tasted the success yet,
so you're like, I want it, this is what I want.

Speaker 4 (30:15):
And then once you get it a little bit, it's
very tempting to start coasting and get real comfortable, and
you forget how to challenge yourself. You forget how to
like keep it moving and grooving. So I would say
it's harder to keep it going.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
Okay, that's that's interesting. Have you like one of one
of the things that you're known for is being Bond
Creek We on Mad TV. Do people come up and
just like yell, Bond Creek, we at you? Or is
it not at that level?

Speaker 4 (30:43):
Oh yeah, I mean it's the nails one. It's going
quickly and they're quoting me to me whether I'm not
you know, the airport, the grocery store, coffee shop, you know,
people are like security, you know, just quoting me into me.

Speaker 3 (31:00):
Do you do you ever have that where you're like,
you know, obviously not everybody's on one hundred percent of
the time, and you're looking around like, okay, I gotta
go say security of Hi.

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Yeah, security, Oh yeah, I definitely. I mean I give
a good way. Here's the thing, It's like, even though
I hear it all day long, whatever part of the
country I'm in, this is that person's first time and
probably only time running into me, and so I try
to keep that in mind when I meet people, like,
this moment has happened for me time and time again,

(31:33):
but this moment has never happened for you. So let
me just be present in this moment for you. Give
you a good smile, give me a good hey, nice
to see you. You want to picture? Yes, you know,
when I can, I do. When I can't, then you know,
we've got to keep it moving.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
I got you. That's a that's a good way to
think about it.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
Definitely like goes back to what you're saying about, you know,
keeping it once you have it. I just watch your
last special Technically not stalking.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
That was hilarious. By the way, Thank you.

Speaker 3 (32:00):
I did have a question though, because you talked about
having anxiety and uh the find my friend's app on iPhone?
Do you have any advice because my girlfriend does the
same thing and guesses, Uh, you know that I've been
to the grocery store without telling her and then I'm
sitting around going I don't think I told Did I
tell her?

Speaker 1 (32:19):
Or is she stalking me?

Speaker 3 (32:21):
Do you have any advice for how to deal with
that as a boyfriend or as a husband with somebody
who is basically CIA level stalking you.

Speaker 4 (32:31):
Yeah, you just accept it. You'd be grateful for it
because it'll come in handy for you in the future
and you will need all of her skills.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
Trust me.

Speaker 3 (32:41):
Okay, that was very ominous. I'm like waiting to get
thrown in the trunk of a car now. I'd be like, no,
my girlfriend's coming, It's okay, It's okay.

Speaker 1 (32:49):
Exactly exactly that's awesome.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Well, Angela, I'm super hype for you to come to
the Egyptian Room in October. Is there anything else you're
excited for? Any plans you have next year? So I
know you got the tour wrapping up at the end
of this year, anything in particular your hype about movie
more stand up chilling.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
Yeah, I'm going to start next year doing a tour
of my podcast. My podcast is called Fungela, comes out
every Tuesday. The premise of my podcast is gratitude. So
every guest that we bring on the show, we do
our one matitude, that's the thing that's making you mad
these days, getting on your nerves, what's getting under your skin.
We do our maratitude. Then we move into gratitude. We
talk about five things that we're grateful for, whether it

(33:32):
be from childhood, a mentor that you had, or you
found twenty dollars in an old jacket pocket, you know,
whatever you are grateful for in your life, and we
just have some really really cool conversations with people through
the lens of gratitude.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
It's so fun. That's awesome.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
Yeah, I saw the episode with Pete Holmes, Lady keV Go.
I'm sorry, we're out of time. We're out of time.

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Oh my god, he's so funny. He cute me.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
Pete Holmes, good but all right.

Speaker 3 (34:01):
We'll be on the lookout for the Fungoa Podcast toward
next year. But everybody's gonna go out, get tickets, sell
out the Egyptian Room when you come here in October,
