Speaker 1 (00:01):
Every day, A way up the Breakfast Club finish for
y'all morning.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
Everybody's d J n V. Just hilarious.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast Club. Lo La
Rosa is here as well.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
We got a special guess in the belt one of
my favorite comedians. Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
I don't know, but one of my favorite gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Yes, Garry Owen.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Let's get it. Rating is about the skyrocket.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
How you feeling? First and foremost, how's everything?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
These great? No complaints.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I've been I've been really watching your clips the last
couple of the last the last couple of weeks, I've
been watching your clips, and I just want to say
salute to you. I've seen a couple of clips where
one guy which was kind of weird.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I thought it was kind of weird.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
His wife died, Yes, and he still went to see
Gary Owen.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Yes, two days two days later, two.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Days later, because he was supposed to go with his
wife and his wife died and he still went, which
was surprised, but he went.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
And Gary, you decided to take care of the funeral
course the.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Well they cremated her there. I took care of the
earn then I gave him. I gave him more because
he had to take off work for a month. But
he didn't I don't think he had a a GoFundMe.
So he got that and that got over fourteen thousand. Wow,
So he got But the reason it just was kind
of spur of the moment, But it was more he
didn't ask because then you see the good and the
(01:26):
bad side of social media to do something like that,
because I had my DMS got overrun. Well, since you
helped him, help me, can you do this? Can all
he sent me a message was he told me that
his wife passed. They and then when I saw his page.
They go to a lot of comedy shows. That was
their thing. So they got pictures of all kinds of
comedians and so he's I'm going to go because she wanted.
(01:49):
She we were supposed to go, and so that's why
I took care of it. Because he didn't ask. He said, Man,
I don't know if you do meet and Greece, but
I really like to get a picture with you. That's
all he wanted.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
That's all he wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Yeah, yeah, I could even tell you even when he
was asked and he was stuttering like I'm not here
for this, but thank you, and I wanted to know,
you know, because you pick on.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I don't want to say pick on, but you will
call people out at a show. If you ever.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Called out somebody and it was wrong, like I've done
it uphill all the time, but like, so what did
your mom think? And they'd be like, my mom's dead,
Like it's happened a bunch of times. So has that happened?
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, yeah, you just be like, oh the way to
bring the show down if you had a conversation. You're
there to laugh, but that's going to happen, you know,
not mean like that. People think I'm just doing like
crowd work. Sometimes I get interrupted and we're taping it now.
So I finally got a full time camera person with me,
(02:37):
which I should have did a long time ago.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Oh that's why I'm seeing so many clips now. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Well I got the right editor too. I mean I
had camera guys, but then I'd be like, why did
you stop it there? Now I got it. Took trial
and error. Now I got the right team. So that's
why I think you're seeing me more in the algorithms,
and the clips are better because they're actually capturing it
and they're editing it correctly, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (03:00):
So you're so you were always doing it, you just
got a team to actually capture it, edit it and
put it together.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, thanks to Nate Jackson. Okay, I saw him here
last week.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
To Jackson, but also Lon Rosa that's sitting to the
right of you, threw a shot at you, just just
just you. Yeah, there was another white comedian here and
I think she was trying to pick two white comedians
against him.
Speaker 7 (03:24):
Saw that a white comedian, Yes, and.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
She just threw a shot at you for no reason.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
And we didn't.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Let's let's listen to the order know what's going on.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
But they brought to Kendrick lamartin and all of a sudden,
the girl that fills in for justs hilarious. That was
there when I was there a few months ago. They said,
you know, Kendrick has never really said who he's talking about.
Andrew's like, how do we even know Kendrick was talking
about me? Now Envy Charlotte Magne and the Schultz is like,
we don't even know who Kendrick was talking about. He
could have been talking about Gary Owen and literally goes
(03:56):
anybody check it for Garyel. I tell you this girl,
I can't remember her name. I don't know what her
issue was with me is, but I'd be like, what,
how did I catch a strain? Anybody checking for Gary Wood?
And I'm like, well, Baltimore, somebody check it for me.
Worried moved out in nash for this weekend?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Somebody checking for me?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah? You could tell she like takes her hip hop
real serious, the lyrics real serious. I could tell when
I was there. I go, so, she's like, you know, Andrew,
how can you say that? And you know you got
almost you almost was defending Kendrick. But I was like, oh,
she takes those lyrics serious, takes your hip hops heerious.
It reminded me it was like when Terre Scott maddening
me because I said up, I said a joke, Like
(04:41):
in her mind, I'm not a real celeb, not a
real entertainer. She doesn't take me serious, doesn't feel I
bet you in her mind, if she was booking the show,
she wouldn't have me on. I bet you in her mind,
she goes, no, no, no, no, no no, why are you like that?
Speaker 8 (04:59):
No?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
No?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Why?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Why?
Speaker 7 (05:01):
First before we ask me questions, do you know my name? Now?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Yeah, Laura l Rossa from Delaware with the Delaware State.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
Okay, people come from me. They act like they don't
know my name.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
But first of all, it wasn't a shot.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
What you are?
Speaker 7 (05:21):
I okay, so I have a shot? Can you be quiet?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
All right?
Speaker 5 (05:25):
I have a tendency to say things and I don't
think much of it. But then I'm realizing that people.
It hits people differently because I thought I was saying
that during that time, it was very clear what Kendrick
Lamar was talking about because Andrew Schultz and the conversation
that he had was all over the news, and then
the Kendrick Lamar stuff happened.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
So over the news. Gary Owen, don't be all over news,
but show Kendrick Andrew Kendrick.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
At the same time, y'all know what I'm talking about. Like,
it was very clear at the time what was happening.
It wasn't a dig at you. It was like a
I thought we all saw the same thing.
Speaker 7 (05:59):
I saw you said that was I think you a celebrity.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
No, I just want content. I want you to I
don't take none of this personal. And if I'm doing
a ram. I'm like, yeah, they probably picked this up
and sure enough took that baby. No, I mean no,
I saw you in your car. Yeah, it helped out,
helped both of us out. Now, look then they're going
to clip this up and we're still riding that Kendrick train.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
You were like, my first celebrity or not celebrity beef.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
It's someone. All my beefs are fake. O my god,
the Michael Black's and moments, fake this this thing we're
about to do with Nate, it's fake before we.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Get to before we get to Nate. And I don't see.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
I don't know what your problem is, Gary, or with
these with black women, black women. Just then to the
left of you, you and.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
J Hilarious went back and forth because yes.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
I ain't never saying nothing that name, but I never
and I don't know why this white man decided to
attack me.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Listen me.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Yeah, Jess Hilarious went to Detroit Mikev's Comedy Club, which
Mike EV's had nothing to do with it. I think
his name is on it, but I guess it just
wasn't run well. The weekend she was there, she goes
on the Brest Cup and she goes. You know, they
told me Damon Williams is gonna be on the show.
I get there's Damon Williams. I don't know, No, damn
Damon Williams. And I'm going Jess. Everybody knows Damon Williams
(07:29):
in the comedy world. I don't know why she took
that moment to dig on Damon, like, I don't know,
damn Damon Williams. Every comic knows Damon Williams. Out of Chicago.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
I'm from Baltimore. I ain't from no damned Chicago.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
No Dan Williams, Yeah I do.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Now I know who he is.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Now he's a good dude.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah, yeah, obviously.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
But I met him one time backstage right, he was
on the same show.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I meet so many people on one shows, you know
what I mean. So I think it was the damn Yeah,
it was the damn.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
He said, I don't know, Damna.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
She was more taking her frustration out on the N Club.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
It was just more so, and it was you weren't
the only one, it was. It was a lot of people.
I think he called an X to make videos to
say like, yo, come on it showedy ruined my credibility.
I'm valid I'm in these streets. I've been like a
pioneer and this ship. Can y'all please let her know
who I am? And it was it was you amongst
other you know o G comics that made the video
(08:26):
and said it. But I'm like, yo, I really did
not know who he was until uh videos were no
pictures were posted. A couple of pictures were posted from
one night at a club.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
We were on d.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Yes and I did, I swear. I meet so many
people like I just did not remember. Oh that's Damon Williams. Okay,
cool even still only met him one time. Now, my bad,
But like I'm not gonna say sorry because I didn't
know who he was by name, and every comic does
not know Dami Williams.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Every comic does not know me. Every comic don't even
know your ass.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Shocking, I don't know everybody.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Now. Some people are just like, dub, we know what
that is.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
You know what I mean. But it's like I I
did not know.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, well he ran with it and like I said,
it's all content. I didn't. I didn't say no, no, no,
I didn't I like.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Da So you just joked in me if you didn't
even he didn't even call it.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Yeah, listen, I'm very listen, I'm very very strategic. You
don't see me calling them out their name. You don't
see me saying they should get fired. You don't see
me saying they're not good at their job. I don't ever.
I'm like, anybody check for Gary Olan, you know who
Damn Damon Williams is. And then I just keep it moving.
I'm like they're gonna respond. I literally go to my
(09:49):
phone and be like, oh yeah, Lauren did it. When
I go on, Jess is going to bring this up.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
And you know what's crazy when you did that when
you posted the video, somebody was like, what telling me
from make a video talking about I probably don't know
no Damn Damn, but I was like, you know that's.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Gary Yeah, so boom yeah about it, gonna get the
smoke smoke unless respectful like beef person. Just like her, Lauren,
she's good at her job.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
You didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
He did said hip hop?
Speaker 7 (10:26):
Si, that was a dish. You just that I was
good at my job. You said I take my hip
hop very serious. Like that was like a your name exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, that was that was that was on purpose.
Speaker 7 (10:34):
If you think I'm good at my job.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
You can say, now, are you good at your job?
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I think you add something to the show, you know
what I mean. You're's good to have a little antagonist
every now and then.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
But what does that do for you though? At where
you are?
Speaker 5 (10:45):
Because like, wow, it's fun where you are?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Can we have fun in this?
Speaker 7 (10:51):
No, I'm just saying where you are?
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Meaning so when I when you said I didn't think
you were a celebrity, I was like, what, I've been
watching you. My household has been watching you for or
I do think you're a celebrity. I'm saying where you
are as if, like you, you're at a point where
like that type of trolling do you need to do that?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I don't think it was trolling. I like the breakfast club.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
So I chime in, yeah, you're saying commentating, commentating that
same thing you're doing. Yeah, but I feel like my
comment like you're you're here saying those weren't your true feelings.
If I say something that's really how.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I feels fake.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Yeah, I'm completely fake on the internet.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Yes, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I mean, I did one of my specials is literally
called hashtag doing what I do because I go, I'm lying.
If I need a hashtag, I'm lying. I taking pictures
in front of the yachts. I wasn't on the yacht.
I was lying.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Oh so that's what bow Wow got all that face
shift from.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah, probably did you. That's where I got it from.
I got from the best when he was on Private Planninggo,
that's a good idea.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
Yeah, so you got your comedy special, Gary, he's got the.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
One on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
No, No, you know that's a lie. You two.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
You gotta do a video about Netflix yet?
Speaker 6 (12:04):
But yo, so do you really does it really grind
your games what people call you?
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
When people say Gary Owens not I don't think the public,
but I think when a promoter hires me and you
put on the flyer, I'm like, dude.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
You won the wrong name on the flyer. The funny
it just happened last week, Uh Stavid. They did some
promo video about some city I'm coming to and it
was Gary Owens. I go, bro, and he's like, why
aren't you reposting it? I go, because you got the
name wrong. They don't do it to nobody else. You
don't see Bruce Bruce's earthquakes just hilarious.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Now, you know, on a serious note, you are funny.
You sell out shows all the time, You sell out
specials all the time. What did you do to an
executive at Netflix? Did you bang somebody's Why you did
you bang somebody's?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Man?
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Like?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
What did you do where they are not reaching out
to you?
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Like, I don't know, ridiculous? Now, come on, I know,
I but you know what it's been. People think like
I got all this these special all these networks. Now
it was BT had a good relationship with them when
they were doing comedy and then Showtime. I had a
good relationship with them, so Showtime stopped doing comedy specials.
So it pretty much there's three buyers right now, Hulu,
(13:22):
Amazon and Netflix. Right So, I don't know, you asked me,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
See comedians getting special that you feel like he's not
better than me.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I think we all think we're better than everybody else.
If we're being honest, We're like, but I would, I'm
not ever bitter towards another guy getting a Netflix special.
I'm like, yeah, that's fine because I'm doing fine, Like
I'm selling out everywhere in advance. You know what I mean.
So I'm the YouTube's I finally figured figured it out
with YouTube. I said, who was the highest paid people
(13:53):
on TV? It was judges and it was daytime talk
show hosts And I was like, why cause they're on
every day? Correct, that's why you knew Jerry Jerry Springer
was on once a week. He wouldn't have been. So
I go, I gotta post a clip every day. I
have to take over people's phones and I have to
post good clips. Once I figured that out, I go.
It just went. And this is all in the last
(14:14):
like three months. And it just went because even my
guy Adam who's he's like slash opener and he's also
my web guy. It was the best DM I ever
answered This guy DM me like two years ago and said, hey,
I'm just starting out doing stand up. You know, I've
been watching you forever. And I said, I looked at
this page. Who does your clips? He says, I do
it myself. I said, you can come down to a
(14:35):
guest spot. We said the West Palm Beach. Improv I go,
if you film me and let me see how the
clips look and me and it's been seamless ever since.
It took a while for me to bring him on
like full time. But now, but.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Do you just hire him for the clips?
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Oh, he's very funny and he takes the craft serious.
Like even when he's not with me, he's on stage
every night he's open Mike and I'm like, dude, you're
want stage again. So he takes the craft serious and
I love the way he edits me and it's just
it's seamless. So I'll even call him be like that
that clip wasn't funny, take down or it's too short
or you know, but we work. We were good together.
(15:08):
But that's what that's what's happened over the last like
three months. We finally was like we made a decision.
Every day we got to post a clip.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yeah, you know that's work because I can tell the difference.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Yeah. So he's a comedian.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
He's a comedian Adam Fink, and.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
He is a videographer and he does.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
He came from like doing rap videos. He was like
working with Big Sean and some other people, and so
working with me is great. He goes, dude, there's less weed. Yeah,
he goes, I'm getting paid on time, no offense. Yeah,
I got paid, but I have to ask you know
what I mean, don't get my money. The video's over,
the song's number two high.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And what happened with you in Nate Jackson? So you
and Ate Jackson you'll do well. You used to do
a podcast together. Yeah, and he alluded that you might
have stole some of his materials stuff and not.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Still nobody's me and Ate jack you've seen us not.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
But it was like the concert.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Here's Nate's issue. He reads comments too much and takes
him the heart and so I'm sure in his brain.
Two people said, Gary wore jersey and I did. I
live in Houston. I got an Astros jersey. I put
it on one night. I thought nothing of it, and
my first head shot was in a jersey. So I
was like to say, I stole a jersey like. I
(16:25):
was looking at Nate like and then I know Nate
puts out a lot of clips. I didn't know he
does like a monthly thing because he puts out so much.
So I was sitting here going huh. I said, I
I'm gonna get all these cities. We're gonna clip it up.
And I said, at the first on the first of
the month, we'll do whatever city I was in, like
(16:46):
in Baltimore, we'll do that, and we'll do I'm gonna
call it off the dome. So Nick, I guess he's
a podcast. When he goes, hey, man, I had a beef.
He goes, you put on a jersey and then you
put on the best of and you call it off
the dome. I go and and then he was like, man,
you know, I do a compilation and I wear jersey
in every city. I said, Yo, see you gotta you
(17:07):
can't wear jerseys? Is that way right now? You know?
So I just think he read the comments and then
I don't know, we're good, like he said, we're good.
I just I think he shouldn't read the comments as
much because I read the comments. I don't takehimersonal.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
This is what he said for people that don't know,
so we can have a clear understanding what he said
when he was in Rock with Gary.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
I have no I have no malice, you know what
I'm saying. And so he's good but uh not. But
it's just and and so I have noticed that as
I'm up in the Pacific Northwest fighting for ways to
be an innovator and stay relevant from way to fuck
up there and off the grid. That sometimes people come
up and they're like, Oh, that's it, that's the sauce.
You can't I can't protect that, whether he comes close
(17:47):
to me and does it, or stayed away from me
and does it. If somebody sees an editing style or
a wave or I don't know, a dress or a
way somebody walks and talk and it's working, there's nothing
you can do. He from he from there, Well, he's
from Ohio.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
He lived listening Envies wy.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
No.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
But I wore I wore an Excel jersey. Nate's not
wearing jersey. You're stupid with extra large. Nate's not wearing
an extra lar. If I would wore a triple X,
I stole it. That's mean it's not me? Is it me?
Speaker 7 (18:29):
He's wearing triple Is that a joke?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Or I just want I want him to see it
and I want him to react.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Anymore? Now he says it's timing. Is it timing?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
It really was like when I did his club last year,
I said, yo, he's because he's he's an impressive guy.
And if I took anything from Nate, it's work ethic
and you know, investing in yourself so the full time
camera guys that are on the road with you, I said,
I gotta start doing that. You know, I'm be the
first one to admit like I was probably. I saw
(19:02):
Bill Brown here and he was like, I take care
of my people and make sure they're paid well. And
I when I hear comments that, I go, yeah, I
don't want people work from me struggling, so I make
sure everybody's well compensated. When I saw Nate taking his
camera guys on the road, I go, I gotta do that.
And Nate's the one that told me you should have
the camera guys with you at all time. So if
I took anything from him, it's that. So the podcasting
(19:23):
away because he doesn't live in Tacoma. It's far and
I'm going up there once a month for like two
three days and we're busting out five six episodes, and
so it was just it was a lot. It was taxing,
and we weren't, you know, it just he got busy.
I got busy, and I was like, dude, this is
a lot, and we won't agree. I'm Houston.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
Oh shit, you're Houston, and he's watched oh yeah, but
he's got his own studio, which is impressive.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
I was like, yeah, this is It's like a mini
mini Tyler Perry going on over there. He's got his
own spot he can do and he runs his merch
out of there, and he's got like three people in
cubicles just cutting up his clips. So if I took
anything from Naden's that, but no, like I said, we're good.
I don't take nothing personal, you know what I mean.
I just think he got a couple of comments, and
(20:07):
then he was like, hey, wait a minute, I do
this cause like Charlomune's got a podcast, he wasn't the
first one to do a podcast. Somebody did a podcast,
saw there's money in it, saw that you could build stuff,
and you go with it. You know. Matt Rife, I
didn't know I had a TikTok. And then I remember
I was in Atlanta and the club owner there, Gary Abdul,
I saw Matt Rife and he was sold out, like
(20:30):
a month in advance. I go, Matt Riife sold out already.
He goes TikTok bro he would nuts. I called my
web people. I go, dude, do I got a TikTok?
They go, you got six hundred thousand followers. I didn't
know I had a TikTok. They had already had it,
and my clips was up there, and I was like,
oh I got one. Yeah, So now I make sure,
just like Instagram YouTube, I make sure I'm active in
(20:52):
my TikTok. But where'd I get that from? Matt Rife
took off?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
You know that they monetized it. Did you get a
check from TikTok every month? Okay?
Speaker 4 (21:00):
You know what? Because MV just put me on today.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
I didn't realize that I had like that I could
monetize TikTok.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
I never posted on somebody undred thousand views. I literally had.
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Somebody running it. I never was on TikTok. I never
been on Twitter any of it. I just run Instagram. Right,
So when MV came in here a couple of weeks ago, like, yo,
are you monetizing? Like I didn't know you can make
I didn't know I could make money off Facebook for
the money, yeah right, but he told me that, And
so now I'm working.
Speaker 4 (21:26):
On all my social media.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Right, I'm saying, your thief.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Obviously, you know what.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Damon Williams has a TikTok.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
He actually should.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Have off that whole moment.
Speaker 6 (21:42):
He should have had who is Damon Williams to it
so you could tell people who didn't know who he was.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I think he he one thing I will say he maximized.
I think that was we say, like how could just
do that? But that was like the best thing for
him at that time. Literally went everywhere.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
You know, you're welcome.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
It's like Angel Rees, the best thing she ever did
was do the ring thing to Caitlyn Clark. Of course
because she's the villain, you know, because wm A is
kind of boring.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, every time they sold.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
When when Angels and Caitlyn play, you watch that thing.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
They went from Angel Rees doing that, you know.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
To the dill dos all over the court. Man, that's
when you know your your leag's boring. That's the headline,
not the score, because I guarantee you all those all
those games that don't got thrown the court no knows
the score.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
I got in trouble for that the other day because
the court that was like w N b A, there
was a deal thrown on the court.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Show him what was the score? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Nobody cares no.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
Look, going back to what you said about your videographer, right,
like you say he's a comedian, right, what do you do?
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Was he a comedian? But when you met him?
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Yeah, he d M me and he was like, I'm
a comedian and he was already. I went to his
page and I saw his videos and I go, that's
pretty good. I go, can you record me? And he
was like yeah. So we tried it and it took
about seven eight months for me to bring him on
full time. I use him here and there. But he
got better too, like he now we're we're synergized. He
(23:18):
gets me, I get him. He's so I like how
he's like he's way younger than me. So he's like thirty,
so he he knows what the thirty year olds are
looking for. You Nah, that attention spanic gonna be there
for that. Yeah really it's great. Yeah for real? So
so what sorry my neglecting eye contact. I'm over here.
(23:38):
I'll leave you out. Yeah like this, Yeah, the energy
is great.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
So what do you do right when he goes? Like
when he blows, he pops off.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Like good, we talked about us, dude, I would love
to have the the like Joe Coy opened up for
Chelsea Handler christ Leah opened up for Joe Coy that's
how deal. And he told me he goes dude. By
the time that happens, this is going to be a
well oiled machine. You're going to be good, you know,
because he's we I have a full time camera guy
(24:10):
that's not Adam. Adam edits it. So Adam doesn't have
to be with me every week, you know. But I
like him with me because when you're in the room,
you know when the energy's right.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Get it's a comedian.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That one that went nuts last month the paper Straws
won in Baltimore went with the guy. I was like
imitating four people at the same time, the security guards
and everything. It was like I forgot all about that.
That was back in February. That happened, Yeah, but he
captured it. If he wasn't there, we missed out on that.
So if you're talking about what I took from Nate,
keep the camera guys with me, because that wasn't crowd work.
(24:45):
That was I was getting interrupted. The guy was like
animate and we come to find out he doesn't drink
and they were trying to get buy drinks. That was
a discussion. He bought the VIP take, but he wasn't
buying anything. They're like, dude, you need to buy some drinks.
He's like, I don't drink. That was what the I
didn't know, but they were so animate. I just started going.
But that wasn't like crowd work. That just got interrupted
(25:06):
and rolled with it, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
He said, John Sena's interview really really change your perspective
on things.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
So break that down. What how did it change your perspective?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
It was funny because like the week before he came on,
Kelsey Plum were talking about the WA player. She like
snapped on somebody that was trying to get her autograph,
and she goes, how does that make you feel as
as a grown person, you know? Doing that? Then when
John Sena came on your show and he goes, if
I can sign something and you guy can make money
off of it, it's now sweat off my back because
(25:38):
I'm helping put food on somebody else's table, and I go, dang,
I was caught up and you're just going to sell
this now. I'm like, it ain't nothing, I'll sign it,
you know what I mean. So I'm glad I saw
that because it really did change my perspective on things,
get so caught up and like we feel like we're
getting taken advantage of, or we want a piece of
everything that has our name on it. But if somebody
(26:00):
gonna blow up, but eight by ten glossy and I
can sign it and they can get one hundred bucks
for it, there's no sort of my back. But you
know what I mean, I'm glady. I'm glad. I saw that.
You know what I mean. That was dope.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
That was good, And let's talk about this special. Yes,
Gary Owen, no ship on YouTube, No s on YouTube,
no s because black people put s on my name,
No s on your Gary Owen, no s, no s
on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
So it's only us that do it.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yeah, you got Filipinos put a p on it in
the beginning, Perry Poens just Pilipinos put.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
On targets like targets target.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
It's just an older black person thing. I don't know
they put s is on everything.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Damn, that's true. I didn't know that we was the
only one who did that.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Black people love the letter S. You guys love it.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
You're not coming to the cookout anymore, we can't because
the S. What do you mean are you disassociating yourself,
like because they're going to still call you Gary Owens.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Maybe I still come a cooker. Maybe we'll talk about it,
share your like. Gary was at the cookout yesterday and
I'm like, Lauren, you knew who I was. He didn't
even say hello at the cookout, said I'm not coming
to the horse. You were coming to my cookout? Where
Charlotte Mane? I miss him.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
I want to ask to you know, So you had
a crazy divorce and it's finally over. You moved on
and everything is good. So you've been You spoke about
your relationship with your kids. Has that gotten any better
at all?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Son got right after I left here last time. Son
got ahold of me. So now we're good. He was
just in Vegas with me last two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
How did y'all make the interview?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
He didn't see the interview. He had an issue at
his job and he needed my help, needed my advice,
so he just called at a left field. It was
funny because out of my open we're in Philly and
he matched with this girl on tender and he goes, yo,
I got to fill in this girls trying to catfish me.
Can you go to the bar with me, just to
play wing man. All right. So we're walking to the
(27:56):
bar and my phone rings. That's my son. I looked up,
go my son's called me. And he looked and I go,
my son call me like three years So I picked up.
I said, good luck with your Tinder date, but I'm out.
So we talked for like three four hours at night
and then uh, yeah, we're as close as ever now.
(28:16):
It just took took time. Daughter is still still nothing,
but she's uh, she's gonna be a tough one the crack.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
Have you attempted to reach out to your daughter since always?
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Yeah? I always do, but you know, I don't have
I don't have any I don't have a way to
contact her. She's not on social media. She got a
new cell phone, so I have I have no way
other than an email.
Speaker 7 (28:37):
She's told her brother not to give you her number.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Well it's it's a little different than that. I'll keep
that between them. I'll keep that between them. I don't
want everything. I'll be on the breakfast club.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Yeah, but that's good. But what was that initial conversation
like it was like with my son? Was it natural?
Was it like, Hey, how's it going.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
It was like, hey, Dad, we haven't spoken to speaker, Like,
how was that that conversation after three years?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Because he's still your son. Yeah, but you still got
a place for y'all.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Yeah. The first thing he said was, Dude, I know
we got a lot to work on. I know we'll
get to it, but I really need your help with
this problem right now. So I went into immediate like
dad mode, like all right, this is what we gotta do.
And then it just so happened. I was gonna be
in the Bay Area like two weeks later, and that's
where he lives. So the phone call happens two weeks later,
(29:24):
we got to reconnect and then uh, and then he
ended up flying back to Houston with me. I said,
you wanna you wanna fly back Monday when I fly back,
because yeah, because you got the twins. So we got
to meet the twins and then everything's good. Now he's
got it, you know, he's got his favorite already.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Be honest, when you first seen that number, did you
think it was a money call?
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Like you know, like, because you know where your kids call,
it's either problem or they need some money.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Oh no, he has no problems for money. Okay, that's
not an issue with him. Let me tell you.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yeah, yeah, I was like this, oh, you're making up
for that three years.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It wasn't a money call. It was I need some advice.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
It was that. No, that wasn't a money call. There's
been money call sinced.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Did you have a moment where you, like, because the
last time you're hearing you talked about it, it was
it was a little bit emotional for you.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Ish.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Did you have a moment where you like, we're like, oh, okay,
like I finally got to the point where me and
my son are reconnecting.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
You were able to take it.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
In and like yeah, yeah, yeah, but you know, I
was like I was able to like be honest with
them about the divorce. It had nothing to do with you.
That's too me and your mom because I think he
I think and maybe my daughter feels that way too.
I think they probably think they had something to do
with it, And I was like, dude, it had nothing
to do with you. Nothing. So yeah, you got you
(30:43):
kind of replay the years lost in your brain. But
then where we're at now, well, you know we're good. Yeah.
I didn't miss a wedding. I didn't miss like him
having kids or anything like that. So I think that
would be that would be tough. Like if my daughter
ever when she does get married, My god, I hope
we're back in touch by them.
Speaker 7 (31:02):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Yeah, all that, do you change how you do your
jokes now, because, like I mean, from this point on,
because your son's watching and you know all the things,
and you had jokes about the divorce and all that stuff.
Speaker 7 (31:14):
Did y'all talk about that?
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Na, He's got a dark sense of humor like I do.
So he was good with it twenty four Oh yeah, yeah,
he's an adult now. Yeah, so no, he's good. He'd
be cracking up. And then you know, it's funny because
now he's kind of hanging out at the comedy club
up there in the Bay Area because I when I
did the show, I brought him up there and everybody
knew him from back in the day we used to
(31:36):
come around. So now he's kind of hanging out there
a lot. So he's meeting a lot of the comedians.
So it's been good because I think I've been cool
with most comedians. I'm like Jess, you know, with Damon,
But he says, man, comedians really like you.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
Dad.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Nobody says anything bad about you, so I hope not.
You know, I don't really cross people like that, so
it was good.
Speaker 7 (31:55):
He's funny.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Is he trying to No, he's funny. He could do
it if he wanted to pursue. But I don't think
it's his passion. But he could do it. He's quick
on his feet.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
This is how I knew you were white, Gary, not
because of your complexion.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
You driving past the blank of America so crazy and
say hey, I want to close my account today.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
You close the account and then say, oh, well, why
are the money?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
But the count's closed, so they say, okay, you can
either take a cash his checked or cash. You take
the cash. Then you proceed to go to the gym
and say, you know what, I'm going to leave the
cash and I just took out the bake in my car.
Or I go work out for an hour plus and
I expect.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
The cash to be there.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Better be here.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
I forty minutes.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Oh wow, Yeah, relax in a sauna with money, your
car absolutely white.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Then you come back out your car's broken into the
money is gone, with a note that says that asshole, damn.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Now how why where how explain what is.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
Just that that that white privilege was kicking in that day.
I thought, I'm on, I'm good, you know, I thought,
I wish he was there that day. I wish he
was here that day. Get him Tommy Kissel Christmas on these.
So I'm literally I don't bank a Bank of America,
(33:20):
but I have an account there and I've had money
there for years that I just I didn't paying attention to.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
It's not money.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
It's not an enormous amount. No, it's there, but it's
not an enormous amount. I'm not going to say. I
don't want to be judged.
Speaker 7 (33:35):
It arranged it over ten thousand, but under fifty.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I'm not. It's over a thousand, and under thirty you
don't get to dictate. You don't get the dictators.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Would have an account with over one thousand dollars in
there and not know it's there.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I know it's there, I just haven't. I don't bank there,
So it's just kind of it's not rich like that.
I just I go in. It took like an hour.
I was getting fed up. I go, oh my god, dude,
I'm looking to delay, like I just want to leave
and then she was like, well, do you want to
cash yours check or do you want cash? I go
whatever faster because once you're there for an hour, you're
(34:11):
ready to go. She goes, we can do the cash
right now. All right, car, I put in the middle
consolet I go. Now, I'm just driving by Lifetime Fitness.
I'm gonna stop in the sauna, use a little sweat.
I knew people break into the lockers in lifetime, and
that is I thought about it. I go, huh, I
(34:32):
think it's safe in the car because I have the
alarm on the car. You know them aldis are like tanks.
And I was like this, I should be good. And
it's middle of the day. It's like one thirty.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Did you leave the crime?
Speaker 4 (34:43):
Don't have no time?
Speaker 7 (34:45):
Where did you put it?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Where was it in the middle?
Speaker 2 (34:49):
So you didn't even put in the glove box and
lock it?
Speaker 6 (34:51):
You just that's the first place I used to look
when I break in Nigga's cars. You don't do that nice, okay, okay,
so you can't perfect.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
So I come out. I'm just I'm doing not only
am I getting robbed because the whitest thing I ever
did was leave the money in the car. I got
a smoothie, you know.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Yeah, I think I was listening to Chris Stapleton Wide Horse.
I come out. The security guard is on a golf
cart just sitting by my car, and I go, here
you go, Yeah, I gotcha, And I went, huh, look around.
I mean that passenger side back window is gone. And
(35:35):
they tried to get in all four windows, but they
finally got in. Well, the police department finally called me
right and they said, all right, here's what's crazy. He
clearly follows you out of the bank. It's called jogging
jogging in Houston, where they literally guys will sit her
outside of banks and they'll follow people. Jesus. Here's the thing.
I'm glad I didn't go home because he would have
(35:57):
followed me home. And I'm because I was paying no
attention to nothing. So I'm glad I went to the
gym and uh so, they said, dude, you walked right
by his car. They got the cameras at Lifetime said
you got out. He parked about five cars away from you.
He goes, you stopped and threw something into garbage can,
and you literally stopped right in front of this white
(36:19):
Chevy blazer. I think he was in. Now I'm replaying
to Blair, why say Blazer? Why your blazer? And then
I was like this, I go, hey, I'm not saying
this is what I really want to know. What clue
was he? I do? I get a guess. The detective
was like black and he was he was. It was
(36:41):
a black guy. It was really black. Yeah, you robbed me,
you're really okay? Okay? What so? They he got the money,
he gets there and then here's the silver lining. Once
he broke into the car. I went back and had
(37:02):
to call my insurance company, and of course they cover
the damages. Well, they go re evaluate everything. They said,
you know, shout out to State Farm. You know, you
can consolidate the homeowners, the car and everything. They go
and you're gonna save two hundred four dollars a month.
So I'm not gonna tell you how much it was,
but in five years I'm ahead. Thank you for robbing
me because I just saved money. Oh my insurance two
(37:23):
hundred four dollars a month.
Speaker 7 (37:24):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
You gotta look at God.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Look at God.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
I'm telling you come come two thirty. Gary's ahead. Do
you think you dropped the wrong one today State Farm.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
They did they catch the people they catch?
Speaker 1 (37:39):
They no, they said there they said they do have
a guy that they got him for other juggings. So
now they're going to see if he ever rented a
white Chevvy Blazer, because now they do. They rent the
car and they take the front light. They said, this
guy's a pro because he took the front license plate off,
and the way he parked it, you couldn't get the
lights play from the camera. And he backed up. And
so here's the bad part. He tried to get into
(38:01):
the driver's side first and couldn't and he realized, oh,
I can't keep here, so he drove and parked in
another part of the Lifetime Fitness and then came back
like fifteen minutes later, and that's when he got in
the passager's side.
Speaker 6 (38:13):
Right.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
They said, the security guard on the golf cart that's
supposed to patrol, where was he at by the way,
And then they said he drove when he tried to
do it the first time, he drove right by your
car and sat there and looked at it for a
few minutes, and then he drove off again. I'm like,
where was this guy at? And let me tell you
something when you get robbed. This is what you don't do.
(38:35):
I called a couple of people, right the people you're like, hey,
I just got robbed. One you don't try to share
a story of somebody else get robbed. The security guard
tries to tell me about all the crimes. He stopped.
I'm like, I don't care about the dun you stopped before.
He was like this, He goes, I came just having
on my watch, but I took a lot of pride.
Another guy that came here, he tried to rob somebody.
(38:56):
We have some Keida, tried to play basketball. They didn't
want to leave. Finally they were robbing people locker room.
I had to kick him out. I go, dude, I
don't give a ship we were talking about right now.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
All my money's gone.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Windows still broke. I'm waiting on tow truck, bro And
then he so I'm waiting on the tow truck. I'm
in my car. I got the a C on. I'm
just sitting there with the door open. He keeps driving by,
trying to talk to me. I finally said, dude, I
don't want to talk to you. I don't want to
be rude. I don't want to talk to you. It
was just like and the same thing. How's it going?
How do you think? How do you think it's going? Man?
And you know? So then I found out Nate Jackson
(39:26):
got robbed, so I just want to do what he
was doing.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
I know, man, that boy, so you pull out the
goddamn banker was like, that's Gary Owens.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
He got me. I was an easy mark bro. They're
like this, Oh that's what I kept thinking. Was it
an inside job with somebody in the bank, like tipping
somebody off? Because that's when I heard. Also, they said
be careful, it's now I'm replaying everybody in the bank.
I'm like, there was a there was a brother in
a suit at the ATM. The young book came in,
the young Mexican dude. He was kind of walking around aimlessly,
(40:04):
you know, like everybody.
Speaker 4 (40:06):
Don't play with the Mexican dude.
Speaker 1 (40:07):
Joe Black friends Mexican?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Is he Mexican? And black?
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Oh? Where'd you meet him?
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah? That's funny as hell.
Speaker 4 (40:15):
What do you mean in Baltimore?
Speaker 7 (40:17):
I thought she met him.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
At a specific occasion like Chipotle? What did you meet
him at?
Speaker 4 (40:22):
Gary? I met him. His name is Chris actually, but no.
Speaker 6 (40:26):
I met him at one of the downtown restaurants water
Ship in Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
He's aware, no crazy truck driver.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
He's a truck driver. So he's gone a lot. Yeah,
that's good. I don't know. I didn't see what the
truck driver has. It good that he's gone a lot
because it makes the heart girl fonder, because truck drivers
ain't out there wild truck stops. You know what could
go wrong?
Speaker 4 (40:52):
A lot lizards.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
That's what I'm saying exactly. I don't think. I don't
think he's if he's with you, he's not going to
go back to lotzards. I'm sure he had one at
some point in his life.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
Jesus, what's the next question? Anybody? Anybody?
Speaker 1 (41:05):
I mean, at one point, it's already sold out, sold out.
We added Sunday, it sold out. You want to talk
about Atlanta next week? Sold out? We did add a show.
We did at a show Sunday in Atlanta, and then
in two weeks I got eleven shows in DC. They're
sold out.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
I know that's right.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
You better. Oh wait a minute, I'm in I'm in
Virginia Beach in October. About that October sold out. You
better tell.
Speaker 7 (41:38):
That's right. No more divorced jokes because it came up
in court mediation.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
I know that with the thing, it came up mediation. Yeah,
that was funny. Though I can't even lie. I never
even like the same thing. If I'm talking about Jeff,
we're talking about Lauren. It's all content. Even in the divorce.
I was like, even with the mediation, it was content,
like I was acting like I was serious. I was like,
that's kind of funny, you know what I mean, Go,
(42:03):
it's just and it's like.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
I know, the lawyers don't even know when to take
you serious.
Speaker 1 (42:07):
This is what I learned. This is the biggest thing
I learned. I helpe anybody's getting a divorce. Listen and
then you hear it all the time. Get to a
point where you're cordial with your ex and you, guys,
decide what you want to do that's fair to everybody.
Because this is when I knew these lawyers are playing
us this. We were held up for a couple of
weeks over life insurance. She wanted to take out like
(42:30):
like a I think it was like a five minut
dour live insurance policy on me, right you yeah, me?
In case I passed away. So she's good, right, Yeah,
but she's got to play the premium. I'm not paying it.
So my lawyer went back and forth to her lawyer.
Oh that's too much for life insurance. I said, I'm dead.
I don't care what it is she's paying for it.
I don't care what my policy is. They go, well,
I don't think the live insurance should be bigger than
(42:52):
the divorce settlement. I go, who cares. When I realized
I'm getting the bill, like, okay, why am I getting
charged every email over there? I said, it's done, give
it to her. I'm done. And then when I finally
we finally get to a point where you're like that,
I go, this is so pointless. There they will literally
find one thing to keep it going. And that kept
it going for a couple of weeks. The dang, if
(43:14):
I'm dead, how much does she get? I don't.
Speaker 2 (43:17):
I don't care.
Speaker 3 (43:17):
I'm w allthough you do is get a physical and just.
Speaker 4 (43:21):
Getting your money taking more money to prolong it.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
And I finally told her. I was like, I finally
got to a point where I called her. I said, look,
we just got to get this over with. Trust me.
On this. I said, yeah, I wasn't the best with fidelity,
but I never did you wrong financially, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 4 (43:36):
So say she feeling like, all right, yeah, y'all called you.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
Right. Every now and then it'll creep back up, like
I think the it's funny I on stage a little bit,
like when I had the twins. I randomly sorry to
airport and I said, hey, you know I I had twins,
because yeah, I go, well, do you want to see him?
(44:01):
She just know? I said, I know you do? So
I showed her the twins, right, so.
Speaker 7 (44:08):
It's fun is not fun?
Speaker 4 (44:10):
She thought it was fun. She knows him by now.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
Anyways, she goes, there's this white arm and there's this
white leg in the side of the picture. She goes,
who's that? I go to nanny. She even nanny. Even nanny,
we have a nanny. I go, well, you met me
at the wrong time. You with me, now, you would
have a nanny.
Speaker 7 (44:31):
He's a l I would have threw my drink at you.
Speaker 3 (44:36):
Why it's funny, Lauren, when you.

Speaker 3 (00:10):
Charlamagne the guy we are the breakfast Club. Lo La
Rosa is here as well.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
We got a special guess in the belt one of
my favorite comedians. Ladies and gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (00:19):
I don't know, but one of my favorite gentlemen.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Yes, Garry Owen.
Speaker 1 (00:25):
Let's get it. Rating is about the skyrocket.
Speaker 2 (00:28):
How you feeling? First and foremost, how's everything?
Speaker 1 (00:31):
These great? No complaints.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I've been I've been really watching your clips the last
couple of the last the last couple of weeks, I've
been watching your clips, and I just want to say
salute to you. I've seen a couple of clips where
one guy which was kind of weird.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
I thought it was kind of weird.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
His wife died, Yes, and he still went to see
Gary Owen.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
Yes, two days two days later, two.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Days later, because he was supposed to go with his
wife and his wife died and he still went, which
was surprised, but he went.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
And Gary, you decided to take care of the funeral
course the.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
Well they cremated her there. I took care of the
earn then I gave him. I gave him more because
he had to take off work for a month. But
he didn't I don't think he had a a GoFundMe.
So he got that and that got over fourteen thousand. Wow,
So he got But the reason it just was kind
of spur of the moment, But it was more he
didn't ask because then you see the good and the
(01:26):
bad side of social media to do something like that,
because I had my DMS got overrun. Well, since you
helped him, help me, can you do this? Can all
he sent me a message was he told me that
his wife passed. They and then when I saw his page.
They go to a lot of comedy shows. That was
their thing. So they got pictures of all kinds of
comedians and so he's I'm going to go because she wanted.
(01:49):
She we were supposed to go, and so that's why
I took care of it. Because he didn't ask. He said, Man,
I don't know if you do meet and Greece, but
I really like to get a picture with you. That's
all he wanted.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
That's all he wanted.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
Yeah, yeah, I could even tell you even when he
was asked and he was stuttering like I'm not here
for this, but thank you, and I wanted to know,
you know, because you pick on.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
I don't want to say pick on, but you will
call people out at a show. If you ever.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Called out somebody and it was wrong, like I've done
it uphill all the time, but like, so what did
your mom think? And they'd be like, my mom's dead,
Like it's happened a bunch of times. So has that happened?
Speaker 5 (02:16):
Ye?
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Yeah, yeah, you just be like, oh the way to
bring the show down if you had a conversation. You're
there to laugh, but that's going to happen, you know,
not mean like that. People think I'm just doing like
crowd work. Sometimes I get interrupted and we're taping it now.
So I finally got a full time camera person with me,
(02:37):
which I should have did a long time ago.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Oh that's why I'm seeing so many clips now. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Well I got the right editor too. I mean I
had camera guys, but then I'd be like, why did
you stop it there? Now I got it. Took trial
and error. Now I got the right team. So that's
why I think you're seeing me more in the algorithms,
and the clips are better because they're actually capturing it
and they're editing it correctly, you know what I mean.
Speaker 6 (03:00):
So you're so you were always doing it, you just
got a team to actually capture it, edit it and
put it together.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
Yeah, thanks to Nate Jackson. Okay, I saw him here
last week.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
To Jackson, but also Lon Rosa that's sitting to the
right of you, threw a shot at you, just just
just you. Yeah, there was another white comedian here and
I think she was trying to pick two white comedians
against him.
Speaker 7 (03:24):
Saw that a white comedian, Yes, and.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
She just threw a shot at you for no reason.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
And we didn't.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
Let's let's listen to the order know what's going on.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
But they brought to Kendrick lamartin and all of a sudden,
the girl that fills in for justs hilarious. That was
there when I was there a few months ago. They said,
you know, Kendrick has never really said who he's talking about.
Andrew's like, how do we even know Kendrick was talking
about me? Now Envy Charlotte Magne and the Schultz is like,
we don't even know who Kendrick was talking about. He
could have been talking about Gary Owen and literally goes
(03:56):
anybody check it for Garyel. I tell you this girl,
I can't remember her name. I don't know what her
issue was with me is, but I'd be like, what,
how did I catch a strain? Anybody checking for Gary Wood?
And I'm like, well, Baltimore, somebody check it for me.
Worried moved out in nash for this weekend?
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Somebody checking for me?
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Yeah? You could tell she like takes her hip hop
real serious, the lyrics real serious. I could tell when
I was there. I go, so, she's like, you know, Andrew,
how can you say that? And you know you got
almost you almost was defending Kendrick. But I was like, oh,
she takes those lyrics serious, takes your hip hops heerious.
It reminded me it was like when Terre Scott maddening
me because I said up, I said a joke, Like
(04:41):
in her mind, I'm not a real celeb, not a
real entertainer. She doesn't take me serious, doesn't feel I
bet you in her mind, if she was booking the show,
she wouldn't have me on. I bet you in her mind,
she goes, no, no, no, no, no no, why are you like that?
Speaker 8 (04:59):
No?
Speaker 1 (04:59):
No?
Speaker 2 (05:00):
Why?
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Why?
Speaker 7 (05:01):
First before we ask me questions, do you know my name? Now?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
Yeah, Laura l Rossa from Delaware with the Delaware State.
Speaker 7 (05:08):
Okay, people come from me. They act like they don't
know my name.
Speaker 5 (05:13):
But first of all, it wasn't a shot.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
What you are?
Speaker 7 (05:21):
I okay, so I have a shot? Can you be quiet?
Speaker 1 (05:24):
All right?
Speaker 5 (05:25):
I have a tendency to say things and I don't
think much of it. But then I'm realizing that people.
It hits people differently because I thought I was saying
that during that time, it was very clear what Kendrick
Lamar was talking about because Andrew Schultz and the conversation
that he had was all over the news, and then
the Kendrick Lamar stuff happened.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
So over the news. Gary Owen, don't be all over news,
but show Kendrick Andrew Kendrick.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
At the same time, y'all know what I'm talking about. Like,
it was very clear at the time what was happening.
It wasn't a dig at you. It was like a
I thought we all saw the same thing.
Speaker 7 (05:59):
I saw you said that was I think you a celebrity.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
No, I just want content. I want you to I
don't take none of this personal. And if I'm doing
a ram. I'm like, yeah, they probably picked this up
and sure enough took that baby. No, I mean no,
I saw you in your car. Yeah, it helped out,
helped both of us out. Now, look then they're going
to clip this up and we're still riding that Kendrick train.
Speaker 7 (06:30):
You were like, my first celebrity or not celebrity beef.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
It's someone. All my beefs are fake. O my god,
the Michael Black's and moments, fake this this thing we're
about to do with Nate, it's fake before we.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
Get to before we get to Nate. And I don't see.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
I don't know what your problem is, Gary, or with
these with black women, black women. Just then to the
left of you, you and.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
J Hilarious went back and forth because yes.
Speaker 6 (06:56):
I ain't never saying nothing that name, but I never
and I don't know why this white man decided to
attack me.
Speaker 2 (07:05):
Listen me.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Yeah, Jess Hilarious went to Detroit Mikev's Comedy Club, which
Mike EV's had nothing to do with it. I think
his name is on it, but I guess it just
wasn't run well. The weekend she was there, she goes
on the Brest Cup and she goes. You know, they
told me Damon Williams is gonna be on the show.
I get there's Damon Williams. I don't know, No, damn
Damon Williams. And I'm going Jess. Everybody knows Damon Williams
(07:29):
in the comedy world. I don't know why she took
that moment to dig on Damon, like, I don't know,
damn Damon Williams. Every comic knows Damon Williams. Out of Chicago.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
I'm from Baltimore. I ain't from no damned Chicago.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
No Dan Williams, Yeah I do.
Speaker 4 (07:43):
Now I know who he is.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Now he's a good dude.
Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah, yeah, obviously.
Speaker 6 (07:48):
But I met him one time backstage right, he was
on the same show.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
I meet so many people on one shows, you know
what I mean. So I think it was the damn Yeah,
it was the damn.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
He said, I don't know, Damna.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
She was more taking her frustration out on the N Club.
Speaker 6 (08:05):
It was just more so, and it was you weren't
the only one, it was. It was a lot of people.
I think he called an X to make videos to
say like, yo, come on it showedy ruined my credibility.
I'm valid I'm in these streets. I've been like a
pioneer and this ship. Can y'all please let her know
who I am? And it was it was you amongst
other you know o G comics that made the video
(08:26):
and said it. But I'm like, yo, I really did
not know who he was until uh videos were no
pictures were posted. A couple of pictures were posted from
one night at a club.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
We were on d.
Speaker 6 (08:40):
Yes and I did, I swear. I meet so many
people like I just did not remember. Oh that's Damon Williams. Okay,
cool even still only met him one time. Now, my bad,
But like I'm not gonna say sorry because I didn't
know who he was by name, and every comic does
not know Dami Williams.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Every comic does not know me. Every comic don't even
know your ass.
Speaker 3 (09:05):
Shocking, I don't know everybody.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Now. Some people are just like, dub, we know what
that is.
Speaker 4 (09:12):
You know what I mean. But it's like I I
did not know.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
Yeah, well he ran with it and like I said,
it's all content. I didn't. I didn't say no, no, no,
I didn't I like.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
Da So you just joked in me if you didn't
even he didn't even call it.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
Yeah, listen, I'm very listen, I'm very very strategic. You
don't see me calling them out their name. You don't
see me saying they should get fired. You don't see
me saying they're not good at their job. I don't ever.
I'm like, anybody check for Gary Olan, you know who
Damn Damon Williams is. And then I just keep it moving.
I'm like they're gonna respond. I literally go to my
(09:49):
phone and be like, oh yeah, Lauren did it. When
I go on, Jess is going to bring this up.
Speaker 6 (09:56):
And you know what's crazy when you did that when
you posted the video, somebody was like, what telling me
from make a video talking about I probably don't know
no Damn Damn, but I was like, you know that's.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Gary Yeah, so boom yeah about it, gonna get the
smoke smoke unless respectful like beef person. Just like her, Lauren,
she's good at her job.
Speaker 7 (10:22):
You didn't say that.
Speaker 2 (10:24):
He did said hip hop?
Speaker 7 (10:26):
Si, that was a dish. You just that I was
good at my job. You said I take my hip
hop very serious. Like that was like a your name exactly.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah, that was that was that was on purpose.
Speaker 7 (10:34):
If you think I'm good at my job.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
You can say, now, are you good at your job?
Speaker 7 (10:37):
Thank you?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
I think you add something to the show, you know
what I mean. You're's good to have a little antagonist
every now and then.
Speaker 7 (10:43):
But what does that do for you though? At where
you are?
Speaker 5 (10:45):
Because like, wow, it's fun where you are?
Speaker 1 (10:50):
Can we have fun in this?
Speaker 7 (10:51):
No, I'm just saying where you are?
Speaker 5 (10:52):
Meaning so when I when you said I didn't think
you were a celebrity, I was like, what, I've been
watching you. My household has been watching you for or
I do think you're a celebrity. I'm saying where you
are as if, like you, you're at a point where
like that type of trolling do you need to do that?
Speaker 1 (11:08):
I don't think it was trolling. I like the breakfast club.
Speaker 5 (11:11):
So I chime in, yeah, you're saying commentating, commentating that
same thing you're doing. Yeah, but I feel like my
comment like you're you're here saying those weren't your true feelings.
If I say something that's really how.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
I feels fake.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Yeah, I'm completely fake on the internet.
Speaker 7 (11:26):
Yes, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
I mean, I did one of my specials is literally
called hashtag doing what I do because I go, I'm lying.
If I need a hashtag, I'm lying. I taking pictures
in front of the yachts. I wasn't on the yacht.
I was lying.
Speaker 6 (11:38):
Oh so that's what bow Wow got all that face
shift from.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Yeah, probably did you. That's where I got it from.
I got from the best when he was on Private Planninggo,
that's a good idea.
Speaker 6 (11:52):
Yeah, so you got your comedy special, Gary, he's got the.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
One on Netflix.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
No, No, you know that's a lie. You two.
Speaker 7 (11:59):
You gotta do a video about Netflix yet?
Speaker 6 (12:04):
But yo, so do you really does it really grind
your games what people call you?
Speaker 1 (12:10):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (12:10):
I mean.
Speaker 6 (12:14):
When people say Gary Owens not I don't think the public,
but I think when a promoter hires me and you
put on the flyer, I'm like, dude.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
You won the wrong name on the flyer. The funny
it just happened last week, Uh Stavid. They did some
promo video about some city I'm coming to and it
was Gary Owens. I go, bro, and he's like, why
aren't you reposting it? I go, because you got the
name wrong. They don't do it to nobody else. You
don't see Bruce Bruce's earthquakes just hilarious.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Now, you know, on a serious note, you are funny.
You sell out shows all the time, You sell out
specials all the time. What did you do to an
executive at Netflix? Did you bang somebody's Why you did
you bang somebody's?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Man?
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Like?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
What did you do where they are not reaching out
to you?
Speaker 1 (13:02):
Like, I don't know, ridiculous? Now, come on, I know,
I but you know what it's been. People think like
I got all this these special all these networks. Now
it was BT had a good relationship with them when
they were doing comedy and then Showtime. I had a
good relationship with them, so Showtime stopped doing comedy specials.
So it pretty much there's three buyers right now, Hulu,
(13:22):
Amazon and Netflix. Right So, I don't know, you asked me,
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
See comedians getting special that you feel like he's not
better than me.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I think we all think we're better than everybody else.
If we're being honest, We're like, but I would, I'm
not ever bitter towards another guy getting a Netflix special.
I'm like, yeah, that's fine because I'm doing fine, Like
I'm selling out everywhere in advance. You know what I mean.
So I'm the YouTube's I finally figured figured it out
with YouTube. I said, who was the highest paid people
(13:53):
on TV? It was judges and it was daytime talk
show hosts And I was like, why cause they're on
every day? Correct, that's why you knew Jerry Jerry Springer
was on once a week. He wouldn't have been. So
I go, I gotta post a clip every day. I
have to take over people's phones and I have to
post good clips. Once I figured that out, I go.
It just went. And this is all in the last
(14:14):
like three months. And it just went because even my
guy Adam who's he's like slash opener and he's also
my web guy. It was the best DM I ever
answered This guy DM me like two years ago and said, hey,
I'm just starting out doing stand up. You know, I've
been watching you forever. And I said, I looked at
this page. Who does your clips? He says, I do
it myself. I said, you can come down to a
(14:35):
guest spot. We said the West Palm Beach. Improv I go,
if you film me and let me see how the
clips look and me and it's been seamless ever since.
It took a while for me to bring him on
like full time. But now, but.
Speaker 2 (14:46):
Do you just hire him for the clips?
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Oh, he's very funny and he takes the craft serious.
Like even when he's not with me, he's on stage
every night he's open Mike and I'm like, dude, you're
want stage again. So he takes the craft serious and
I love the way he edits me and it's just
it's seamless. So I'll even call him be like that
that clip wasn't funny, take down or it's too short
or you know, but we work. We were good together.
(15:08):
But that's what that's what's happened over the last like
three months. We finally was like we made a decision.
Every day we got to post a clip.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
Yeah, you know that's work because I can tell the difference.
Speaker 4 (15:18):
Yeah. So he's a comedian.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
He's a comedian Adam Fink, and.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
He is a videographer and he does.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
He came from like doing rap videos. He was like
working with Big Sean and some other people, and so
working with me is great. He goes, dude, there's less weed. Yeah,
he goes, I'm getting paid on time, no offense. Yeah,
I got paid, but I have to ask you know
what I mean, don't get my money. The video's over,
the song's number two high.
Speaker 3 (15:47):
And what happened with you in Nate Jackson? So you
and Ate Jackson you'll do well. You used to do
a podcast together. Yeah, and he alluded that you might
have stole some of his materials stuff and not.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Still nobody's me and Ate jack you've seen us not.
Speaker 5 (16:00):
But it was like the concert.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
Here's Nate's issue. He reads comments too much and takes
him the heart and so I'm sure in his brain.
Two people said, Gary wore jersey and I did. I
live in Houston. I got an Astros jersey. I put
it on one night. I thought nothing of it, and
my first head shot was in a jersey. So I
was like to say, I stole a jersey like. I
(16:25):
was looking at Nate like and then I know Nate
puts out a lot of clips. I didn't know he
does like a monthly thing because he puts out so much.
So I was sitting here going huh. I said, I
I'm gonna get all these cities. We're gonna clip it up.
And I said, at the first on the first of
the month, we'll do whatever city I was in, like
(16:46):
in Baltimore, we'll do that, and we'll do I'm gonna
call it off the dome. So Nick, I guess he's
a podcast. When he goes, hey, man, I had a beef.
He goes, you put on a jersey and then you
put on the best of and you call it off
the dome. I go and and then he was like, man,
you know, I do a compilation and I wear jersey
in every city. I said, Yo, see you gotta you
(17:07):
can't wear jerseys? Is that way right now? You know?
So I just think he read the comments and then
I don't know, we're good, like he said, we're good.
I just I think he shouldn't read the comments as
much because I read the comments. I don't takehimersonal.
Speaker 3 (17:20):
This is what he said for people that don't know,
so we can have a clear understanding what he said
when he was in Rock with Gary.
Speaker 8 (17:25):
I have no I have no malice, you know what
I'm saying. And so he's good but uh not. But
it's just and and so I have noticed that as
I'm up in the Pacific Northwest fighting for ways to
be an innovator and stay relevant from way to fuck
up there and off the grid. That sometimes people come
up and they're like, Oh, that's it, that's the sauce.
You can't I can't protect that, whether he comes close
(17:47):
to me and does it, or stayed away from me
and does it. If somebody sees an editing style or
a wave or I don't know, a dress or a
way somebody walks and talk and it's working, there's nothing
you can do. He from he from there, Well, he's
from Ohio.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
He lived listening Envies wy.
Speaker 3 (18:10):
No.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
But I wore I wore an Excel jersey. Nate's not
wearing jersey. You're stupid with extra large. Nate's not wearing
an extra lar. If I would wore a triple X,
I stole it. That's mean it's not me? Is it me?
Speaker 7 (18:29):
He's wearing triple Is that a joke?
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Or I just want I want him to see it
and I want him to react.
Speaker 2 (18:39):
Anymore? Now he says it's timing. Is it timing?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
It really was like when I did his club last year,
I said, yo, he's because he's he's an impressive guy.
And if I took anything from Nate, it's work ethic
and you know, investing in yourself so the full time
camera guys that are on the road with you, I said,
I gotta start doing that. You know, I'm be the
first one to admit like I was probably. I saw
(19:02):
Bill Brown here and he was like, I take care
of my people and make sure they're paid well. And
I when I hear comments that, I go, yeah, I
don't want people work from me struggling, so I make
sure everybody's well compensated. When I saw Nate taking his
camera guys on the road, I go, I gotta do that.
And Nate's the one that told me you should have
the camera guys with you at all time. So if
I took anything from him, it's that. So the podcasting
(19:23):
away because he doesn't live in Tacoma. It's far and
I'm going up there once a month for like two
three days and we're busting out five six episodes, and
so it was just it was a lot. It was taxing,
and we weren't, you know, it just he got busy.
I got busy, and I was like, dude, this is
a lot, and we won't agree. I'm Houston.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
Oh shit, you're Houston, and he's watched oh yeah, but
he's got his own studio, which is impressive.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
I was like, yeah, this is It's like a mini
mini Tyler Perry going on over there. He's got his
own spot he can do and he runs his merch
out of there, and he's got like three people in
cubicles just cutting up his clips. So if I took
anything from Naden's that, but no, like I said, we're good.
I don't take nothing personal, you know what I mean.
I just think he got a couple of comments, and
(20:07):
then he was like, hey, wait a minute, I do
this cause like Charlomune's got a podcast, he wasn't the
first one to do a podcast. Somebody did a podcast,
saw there's money in it, saw that you could build stuff,
and you go with it. You know. Matt Rife, I
didn't know I had a TikTok. And then I remember
I was in Atlanta and the club owner there, Gary Abdul,
I saw Matt Rife and he was sold out, like
(20:30):
a month in advance. I go, Matt Riife sold out already.
He goes TikTok bro he would nuts. I called my
web people. I go, dude, do I got a TikTok?
They go, you got six hundred thousand followers. I didn't
know I had a TikTok. They had already had it,
and my clips was up there, and I was like,
oh I got one. Yeah, So now I make sure,
just like Instagram YouTube, I make sure I'm active in
(20:52):
my TikTok. But where'd I get that from? Matt Rife
took off?
Speaker 2 (20:55):
You know that they monetized it. Did you get a
check from TikTok every month? Okay?
Speaker 4 (21:00):
You know what? Because MV just put me on today.
Speaker 6 (21:02):
I didn't realize that I had like that I could
monetize TikTok.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
I never posted on somebody undred thousand views. I literally had.
Speaker 6 (21:10):
Somebody running it. I never was on TikTok. I never
been on Twitter any of it. I just run Instagram. Right,
So when MV came in here a couple of weeks ago, like, yo,
are you monetizing? Like I didn't know you can make
I didn't know I could make money off Facebook for
the money, yeah right, but he told me that, And
so now I'm working.
Speaker 4 (21:26):
On all my social media.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Right, I'm saying, your thief.
Speaker 2 (21:35):
Obviously, you know what.
Speaker 1 (21:36):
Damon Williams has a TikTok.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
He actually should.
Speaker 4 (21:40):
Have off that whole moment.
Speaker 6 (21:42):
He should have had who is Damon Williams to it
so you could tell people who didn't know who he was.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
I think he he one thing I will say he maximized.
I think that was we say, like how could just
do that? But that was like the best thing for
him at that time. Literally went everywhere.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
You know, you're welcome.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
It's like Angel Rees, the best thing she ever did
was do the ring thing to Caitlyn Clark. Of course
because she's the villain, you know, because wm A is
kind of boring.
Speaker 2 (22:13):
Yeah, every time they sold.
Speaker 1 (22:15):
When when Angels and Caitlyn play, you watch that thing.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
They went from Angel Rees doing that, you know.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
To the dill dos all over the court. Man, that's
when you know your your leag's boring. That's the headline,
not the score, because I guarantee you all those all
those games that don't got thrown the court no knows
the score.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
I got in trouble for that the other day because
the court that was like w N b A, there
was a deal thrown on the court.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Show him what was the score? I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:45):
Nobody cares no.
Speaker 6 (22:49):
Look, going back to what you said about your videographer, right,
like you say he's a comedian, right, what do you do?
Speaker 4 (22:54):
Was he a comedian? But when you met him?
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Yeah, he d M me and he was like, I'm
a comedian and he was already. I went to his
page and I saw his videos and I go, that's
pretty good. I go, can you record me? And he
was like yeah. So we tried it and it took
about seven eight months for me to bring him on
full time. I use him here and there. But he
got better too, like he now we're we're synergized. He
(23:18):
gets me, I get him. He's so I like how
he's like he's way younger than me. So he's like thirty,
so he he knows what the thirty year olds are
looking for. You Nah, that attention spanic gonna be there
for that. Yeah really it's great. Yeah for real? So
so what sorry my neglecting eye contact. I'm over here.
(23:38):
I'll leave you out. Yeah like this, Yeah, the energy
is great.
Speaker 4 (23:44):
So what do you do right when he goes? Like
when he blows, he pops off.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
Like good, we talked about us, dude, I would love
to have the the like Joe Coy opened up for
Chelsea Handler christ Leah opened up for Joe Coy that's
how deal. And he told me he goes dude. By
the time that happens, this is going to be a
well oiled machine. You're going to be good, you know,
because he's we I have a full time camera guy
(24:10):
that's not Adam. Adam edits it. So Adam doesn't have
to be with me every week, you know. But I
like him with me because when you're in the room,
you know when the energy's right.
Speaker 4 (24:20):
Get it's a comedian.
Speaker 1 (24:22):
That one that went nuts last month the paper Straws
won in Baltimore went with the guy. I was like
imitating four people at the same time, the security guards
and everything. It was like I forgot all about that.
That was back in February. That happened, Yeah, but he
captured it. If he wasn't there, we missed out on that.
So if you're talking about what I took from Nate,
keep the camera guys with me, because that wasn't crowd work.
(24:45):
That was I was getting interrupted. The guy was like
animate and we come to find out he doesn't drink
and they were trying to get buy drinks. That was
a discussion. He bought the VIP take, but he wasn't
buying anything. They're like, dude, you need to buy some drinks.
He's like, I don't drink. That was what the I
didn't know, but they were so animate. I just started going.
But that wasn't like crowd work. That just got interrupted
(25:06):
and rolled with it, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (25:08):
He said, John Sena's interview really really change your perspective
on things.
Speaker 2 (25:13):
So break that down. What how did it change your perspective?
Speaker 1 (25:17):
It was funny because like the week before he came on,
Kelsey Plum were talking about the WA player. She like
snapped on somebody that was trying to get her autograph,
and she goes, how does that make you feel as
as a grown person, you know? Doing that? Then when
John Sena came on your show and he goes, if
I can sign something and you guy can make money
off of it, it's now sweat off my back because
(25:38):
I'm helping put food on somebody else's table, and I go, dang,
I was caught up and you're just going to sell
this now. I'm like, it ain't nothing, I'll sign it,
you know what I mean. So I'm glad I saw
that because it really did change my perspective on things,
get so caught up and like we feel like we're
getting taken advantage of, or we want a piece of
everything that has our name on it. But if somebody
(26:00):
gonna blow up, but eight by ten glossy and I
can sign it and they can get one hundred bucks
for it, there's no sort of my back. But you
know what I mean, I'm glady. I'm glad. I saw that.
You know what I mean. That was dope.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
That was good, And let's talk about this special. Yes,
Gary Owen, no ship on YouTube, No s on YouTube,
no s because black people put s on my name,
No s on your Gary Owen, no s, no s
on YouTube.
Speaker 4 (26:24):
So it's only us that do it.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Yeah, you got Filipinos put a p on it in
the beginning, Perry Poens just Pilipinos put.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
On targets like targets target.
Speaker 7 (26:39):
It's just an older black person thing. I don't know
they put s is on everything.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Damn, that's true. I didn't know that we was the
only one who did that.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
Black people love the letter S. You guys love it.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
You're not coming to the cookout anymore, we can't because
the S. What do you mean are you disassociating yourself,
like because they're going to still call you Gary Owens.
Speaker 1 (26:53):
Maybe I still come a cooker. Maybe we'll talk about it,
share your like. Gary was at the cookout yesterday and
I'm like, Lauren, you knew who I was. He didn't
even say hello at the cookout, said I'm not coming
to the horse. You were coming to my cookout? Where
Charlotte Mane? I miss him.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
I want to ask to you know, So you had
a crazy divorce and it's finally over. You moved on
and everything is good. So you've been You spoke about
your relationship with your kids. Has that gotten any better
at all?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
Son got right after I left here last time. Son
got ahold of me. So now we're good. He was
just in Vegas with me last two weeks ago.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
How did y'all make the interview?
Speaker 1 (27:35):
He didn't see the interview. He had an issue at
his job and he needed my help, needed my advice,
so he just called at a left field. It was
funny because out of my open we're in Philly and
he matched with this girl on tender and he goes, yo,
I got to fill in this girls trying to catfish me.
Can you go to the bar with me, just to
play wing man. All right. So we're walking to the
(27:56):
bar and my phone rings. That's my son. I looked up,
go my son's called me. And he looked and I go,
my son call me like three years So I picked up.
I said, good luck with your Tinder date, but I'm out.
So we talked for like three four hours at night
and then uh, yeah, we're as close as ever now.
(28:16):
It just took took time. Daughter is still still nothing,
but she's uh, she's gonna be a tough one the crack.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
Have you attempted to reach out to your daughter since always?
Speaker 1 (28:26):
Yeah? I always do, but you know, I don't have
I don't have any I don't have a way to
contact her. She's not on social media. She got a
new cell phone, so I have I have no way
other than an email.
Speaker 7 (28:37):
She's told her brother not to give you her number.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
Well it's it's a little different than that. I'll keep
that between them. I'll keep that between them. I don't
want everything. I'll be on the breakfast club.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Yeah, but that's good. But what was that initial conversation
like it was like with my son? Was it natural?
Was it like, Hey, how's it going.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
It was like, hey, Dad, we haven't spoken to speaker, Like,
how was that that conversation after three years?
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Because he's still your son. Yeah, but you still got
a place for y'all.
Speaker 1 (29:03):
Yeah. The first thing he said was, Dude, I know
we got a lot to work on. I know we'll
get to it, but I really need your help with
this problem right now. So I went into immediate like
dad mode, like all right, this is what we gotta do.
And then it just so happened. I was gonna be
in the Bay Area like two weeks later, and that's
where he lives. So the phone call happens two weeks later,
(29:24):
we got to reconnect and then uh, and then he
ended up flying back to Houston with me. I said,
you wanna you wanna fly back Monday when I fly back,
because yeah, because you got the twins. So we got
to meet the twins and then everything's good. Now he's
got it, you know, he's got his favorite already.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
Be honest, when you first seen that number, did you
think it was a money call?
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Like you know, like, because you know where your kids call,
it's either problem or they need some money.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Oh no, he has no problems for money. Okay, that's
not an issue with him. Let me tell you.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Yeah, yeah, I was like this, oh, you're making up
for that three years.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
It wasn't a money call. It was I need some advice.
Speaker 1 (30:02):
It was that. No, that wasn't a money call. There's
been money call sinced.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Did you have a moment where you, like, because the
last time you're hearing you talked about it, it was
it was a little bit emotional for you.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Ish.
Speaker 5 (30:16):
Did you have a moment where you like, we're like, oh, okay,
like I finally got to the point where me and
my son are reconnecting.
Speaker 7 (30:20):
You were able to take it.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
In and like yeah, yeah, yeah, but you know, I
was like I was able to like be honest with
them about the divorce. It had nothing to do with you.
That's too me and your mom because I think he
I think and maybe my daughter feels that way too.
I think they probably think they had something to do
with it, And I was like, dude, it had nothing
to do with you. Nothing. So yeah, you got you
(30:43):
kind of replay the years lost in your brain. But
then where we're at now, well, you know we're good. Yeah.
I didn't miss a wedding. I didn't miss like him
having kids or anything like that. So I think that
would be that would be tough. Like if my daughter
ever when she does get married, My god, I hope
we're back in touch by them.
Speaker 7 (31:02):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (31:04):
Yeah, all that, do you change how you do your
jokes now, because, like I mean, from this point on,
because your son's watching and you know all the things,
and you had jokes about the divorce and all that stuff.
Speaker 7 (31:14):
Did y'all talk about that?
Speaker 1 (31:15):
Na, He's got a dark sense of humor like I do.
So he was good with it twenty four Oh yeah, yeah,
he's an adult now. Yeah, so no, he's good. He'd
be cracking up. And then you know, it's funny because
now he's kind of hanging out at the comedy club
up there in the Bay Area because I when I
did the show, I brought him up there and everybody
knew him from back in the day we used to
(31:36):
come around. So now he's kind of hanging out there
a lot. So he's meeting a lot of the comedians.
So it's been good because I think I've been cool
with most comedians. I'm like Jess, you know, with Damon,
But he says, man, comedians really like you.
Speaker 8 (31:49):
Dad.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
Nobody says anything bad about you, so I hope not.
You know, I don't really cross people like that, so
it was good.
Speaker 7 (31:55):
He's funny.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Is he trying to No, he's funny. He could do
it if he wanted to pursue. But I don't think
it's his passion. But he could do it. He's quick
on his feet.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
This is how I knew you were white, Gary, not
because of your complexion.
Speaker 3 (32:07):
You driving past the blank of America so crazy and
say hey, I want to close my account today.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
You close the account and then say, oh, well, why
are the money?
Speaker 3 (32:18):
But the count's closed, so they say, okay, you can
either take a cash his checked or cash. You take
the cash. Then you proceed to go to the gym
and say, you know what, I'm going to leave the
cash and I just took out the bake in my car.
Or I go work out for an hour plus and
I expect.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
The cash to be there.
Speaker 4 (32:36):
Better be here.
Speaker 2 (32:40):
I forty minutes.
Speaker 6 (32:42):
Oh wow, Yeah, relax in a sauna with money, your
car absolutely white.
Speaker 3 (32:47):
Then you come back out your car's broken into the
money is gone, with a note that says that asshole, damn.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Now how why where how explain what is.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
Just that that that white privilege was kicking in that day.
I thought, I'm on, I'm good, you know, I thought,
I wish he was there that day. I wish he
was here that day. Get him Tommy Kissel Christmas on these.
So I'm literally I don't bank a Bank of America,
(33:20):
but I have an account there and I've had money
there for years that I just I didn't paying attention to.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
It's not money.
Speaker 1 (33:27):
It's not an enormous amount. No, it's there, but it's
not an enormous amount. I'm not going to say. I
don't want to be judged.
Speaker 7 (33:35):
It arranged it over ten thousand, but under fifty.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
I'm not. It's over a thousand, and under thirty you
don't get to dictate. You don't get the dictators.
Speaker 3 (33:46):
Would have an account with over one thousand dollars in
there and not know it's there.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
I know it's there, I just haven't. I don't bank there,
So it's just kind of it's not rich like that.
I just I go in. It took like an hour.
I was getting fed up. I go, oh my god, dude,
I'm looking to delay, like I just want to leave
and then she was like, well, do you want to
cash yours check or do you want cash? I go
whatever faster because once you're there for an hour, you're
(34:11):
ready to go. She goes, we can do the cash
right now. All right, car, I put in the middle
consolet I go. Now, I'm just driving by Lifetime Fitness.
I'm gonna stop in the sauna, use a little sweat.
I knew people break into the lockers in lifetime, and
that is I thought about it. I go, huh, I
(34:32):
think it's safe in the car because I have the
alarm on the car. You know them aldis are like tanks.
And I was like this, I should be good. And
it's middle of the day. It's like one thirty.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
Did you leave the crime?
Speaker 4 (34:43):
Don't have no time?
Speaker 7 (34:45):
Where did you put it?
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Where was it in the middle?
Speaker 2 (34:49):
So you didn't even put in the glove box and
lock it?
Speaker 6 (34:51):
You just that's the first place I used to look
when I break in Nigga's cars. You don't do that nice, okay, okay,
so you can't perfect.
Speaker 1 (35:04):
So I come out. I'm just I'm doing not only
am I getting robbed because the whitest thing I ever
did was leave the money in the car. I got
a smoothie, you know.
Speaker 3 (35:14):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Yeah, I think I was listening to Chris Stapleton Wide Horse.
I come out. The security guard is on a golf
cart just sitting by my car, and I go, here
you go, Yeah, I gotcha, And I went, huh, look around.
I mean that passenger side back window is gone. And
(35:35):
they tried to get in all four windows, but they
finally got in. Well, the police department finally called me
right and they said, all right, here's what's crazy. He
clearly follows you out of the bank. It's called jogging
jogging in Houston, where they literally guys will sit her
outside of banks and they'll follow people. Jesus. Here's the thing.
I'm glad I didn't go home because he would have
(35:57):
followed me home. And I'm because I was paying no
attention to nothing. So I'm glad I went to the
gym and uh so, they said, dude, you walked right
by his car. They got the cameras at Lifetime said
you got out. He parked about five cars away from you.
He goes, you stopped and threw something into garbage can,
and you literally stopped right in front of this white
(36:19):
Chevy blazer. I think he was in. Now I'm replaying
to Blair, why say Blazer? Why your blazer? And then
I was like this, I go, hey, I'm not saying
this is what I really want to know. What clue
was he? I do? I get a guess. The detective
was like black and he was he was. It was
(36:41):
a black guy. It was really black. Yeah, you robbed me,
you're really okay? Okay? What so? They he got the money,
he gets there and then here's the silver lining. Once
he broke into the car. I went back and had
(37:02):
to call my insurance company, and of course they cover
the damages. Well, they go re evaluate everything. They said,
you know, shout out to State Farm. You know, you
can consolidate the homeowners, the car and everything. They go
and you're gonna save two hundred four dollars a month.
So I'm not gonna tell you how much it was,
but in five years I'm ahead. Thank you for robbing
me because I just saved money. Oh my insurance two
(37:23):
hundred four dollars a month.
Speaker 7 (37:24):
Boom.
Speaker 1 (37:26):
You gotta look at God.
Speaker 2 (37:27):
Look at God.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
I'm telling you come come two thirty. Gary's ahead. Do
you think you dropped the wrong one today State Farm.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
They did they catch the people they catch?
Speaker 1 (37:39):
They no, they said there they said they do have
a guy that they got him for other juggings. So
now they're going to see if he ever rented a
white Chevvy Blazer, because now they do. They rent the
car and they take the front light. They said, this
guy's a pro because he took the front license plate off,
and the way he parked it, you couldn't get the
lights play from the camera. And he backed up. And
so here's the bad part. He tried to get into
(38:01):
the driver's side first and couldn't and he realized, oh,
I can't keep here, so he drove and parked in
another part of the Lifetime Fitness and then came back
like fifteen minutes later, and that's when he got in
the passager's side.
Speaker 6 (38:13):
Right.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
They said, the security guard on the golf cart that's
supposed to patrol, where was he at by the way,
And then they said he drove when he tried to
do it the first time, he drove right by your
car and sat there and looked at it for a
few minutes, and then he drove off again. I'm like,
where was this guy at? And let me tell you
something when you get robbed. This is what you don't do.
(38:35):
I called a couple of people, right the people you're like, hey,
I just got robbed. One you don't try to share
a story of somebody else get robbed. The security guard
tries to tell me about all the crimes. He stopped.
I'm like, I don't care about the dun you stopped before.
He was like this, He goes, I came just having
on my watch, but I took a lot of pride.
Another guy that came here, he tried to rob somebody.
(38:56):
We have some Keida, tried to play basketball. They didn't
want to leave. Finally they were robbing people locker room.
I had to kick him out. I go, dude, I
don't give a ship we were talking about right now.
Speaker 2 (39:04):
All my money's gone.
Speaker 1 (39:05):
Windows still broke. I'm waiting on tow truck, bro And
then he so I'm waiting on the tow truck. I'm
in my car. I got the a C on. I'm
just sitting there with the door open. He keeps driving by,
trying to talk to me. I finally said, dude, I
don't want to talk to you. I don't want to
be rude. I don't want to talk to you. It
was just like and the same thing. How's it going?
How do you think? How do you think it's going? Man?
And you know? So then I found out Nate Jackson
(39:26):
got robbed, so I just want to do what he
was doing.
Speaker 6 (39:32):
I know, man, that boy, so you pull out the
goddamn banker was like, that's Gary Owens.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
He got me. I was an easy mark bro. They're
like this, Oh that's what I kept thinking. Was it
an inside job with somebody in the bank, like tipping
somebody off? Because that's when I heard. Also, they said
be careful, it's now I'm replaying everybody in the bank.
I'm like, there was a there was a brother in
a suit at the ATM. The young book came in,
the young Mexican dude. He was kind of walking around aimlessly,
(40:04):
you know, like everybody.
Speaker 4 (40:06):
Don't play with the Mexican dude.
Speaker 1 (40:07):
Joe Black friends Mexican?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Is he Mexican? And black?
Speaker 1 (40:12):
Oh? Where'd you meet him?
Speaker 2 (40:14):
Yeah? That's funny as hell.
Speaker 4 (40:15):
What do you mean in Baltimore?
Speaker 7 (40:17):
I thought she met him.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
At a specific occasion like Chipotle? What did you meet
him at?
Speaker 4 (40:22):
Gary? I met him. His name is Chris actually, but no.
Speaker 6 (40:26):
I met him at one of the downtown restaurants water
Ship in Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
He's aware, no crazy truck driver.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
He's a truck driver. So he's gone a lot. Yeah,
that's good. I don't know. I didn't see what the
truck driver has. It good that he's gone a lot
because it makes the heart girl fonder, because truck drivers
ain't out there wild truck stops. You know what could
go wrong?
Speaker 4 (40:52):
A lot lizards.
Speaker 1 (40:53):
That's what I'm saying exactly. I don't think. I don't
think he's if he's with you, he's not going to
go back to lotzards. I'm sure he had one at
some point in his life.
Speaker 4 (41:02):
Jesus, what's the next question? Anybody? Anybody?
Speaker 1 (41:05):
I mean, at one point, it's already sold out, sold out.
We added Sunday, it sold out. You want to talk
about Atlanta next week? Sold out? We did add a show.
We did at a show Sunday in Atlanta, and then
in two weeks I got eleven shows in DC. They're
sold out.
Speaker 2 (41:21):
I know that's right.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
You better. Oh wait a minute, I'm in I'm in
Virginia Beach in October. About that October sold out. You
better tell.
Speaker 7 (41:38):
That's right. No more divorced jokes because it came up
in court mediation.
Speaker 1 (41:41):
I know that with the thing, it came up mediation. Yeah,
that was funny. Though I can't even lie. I never
even like the same thing. If I'm talking about Jeff,
we're talking about Lauren. It's all content. Even in the divorce.
I was like, even with the mediation, it was content,
like I was acting like I was serious. I was like,
that's kind of funny, you know what I mean, Go,
(42:03):
it's just and it's like.
Speaker 4 (42:04):
I know, the lawyers don't even know when to take
you serious.
Speaker 1 (42:07):
This is what I learned. This is the biggest thing
I learned. I helpe anybody's getting a divorce. Listen and
then you hear it all the time. Get to a
point where you're cordial with your ex and you, guys,
decide what you want to do that's fair to everybody.
Because this is when I knew these lawyers are playing
us this. We were held up for a couple of
weeks over life insurance. She wanted to take out like
(42:30):
like a I think it was like a five minut
dour live insurance policy on me, right you yeah, me?
In case I passed away. So she's good, right, Yeah,
but she's got to play the premium. I'm not paying it.
So my lawyer went back and forth to her lawyer.
Oh that's too much for life insurance. I said, I'm dead.
I don't care what it is she's paying for it.
I don't care what my policy is. They go, well,
I don't think the live insurance should be bigger than
(42:52):
the divorce settlement. I go, who cares. When I realized
I'm getting the bill, like, okay, why am I getting
charged every email over there? I said, it's done, give
it to her. I'm done. And then when I finally
we finally get to a point where you're like that,
I go, this is so pointless. There they will literally
find one thing to keep it going. And that kept
it going for a couple of weeks. The dang, if
(43:14):
I'm dead, how much does she get? I don't.
Speaker 2 (43:17):
I don't care.
Speaker 3 (43:17):
I'm w allthough you do is get a physical and just.
Speaker 4 (43:21):
Getting your money taking more money to prolong it.
Speaker 1 (43:24):
And I finally told her. I was like, I finally
got to a point where I called her. I said, look,
we just got to get this over with. Trust me.
On this. I said, yeah, I wasn't the best with fidelity,
but I never did you wrong financially, you know what
I mean?
Speaker 4 (43:36):
So say she feeling like, all right, yeah, y'all called you.
Speaker 1 (43:41):
Right. Every now and then it'll creep back up, like
I think the it's funny I on stage a little bit,
like when I had the twins. I randomly sorry to
airport and I said, hey, you know I I had twins,
because yeah, I go, well, do you want to see him?
(44:01):
She just know? I said, I know you do? So
I showed her the twins, right, so.
Speaker 7 (44:08):
It's fun is not fun?
Speaker 4 (44:10):
She thought it was fun. She knows him by now.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
Anyways, she goes, there's this white arm and there's this
white leg in the side of the picture. She goes,
who's that? I go to nanny. She even nanny. Even nanny,
we have a nanny. I go, well, you met me
at the wrong time. You with me, now, you would
