Speaker 5 (05:32):
So just so you know, Autumn is on my so
she can play trivia with us as well.
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Okay, very good, All right, who got up first? I
wants to play trivia?
Speaker 5 (05:39):
Amber pick a number between ken because this is somebody
texted this in as a way to mix up the numbers.
All right, okay, Ambery, pick a number between zero and six.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Two.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I like if we picked names because the names are fun.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
Well it's not.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Picked two.
Speaker 5 (05:59):
No, no, you again, because this person was the whole thing.
It's like, oh, no one ever picks one in five
because you say we'll pick the number of twenty one
and five, so you should say zero and six. Because
then they'll pick a different number. And it did not work.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
That was a lot of thinking. You asked what to do? Right?
Who we got?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
That's uh, Jeremiah, and he's calling us from Georgia.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
Hey, Jeremiah, how you doing.
Speaker 7 (06:21):
We're doing good man. How you guys doing this?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Moring?
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I'm great. Jeremiah, got a tribute question for you. If
you get it right, you're the man. You get to
plug and promote whatever you want. You get a prize
from the Prize Panada. It's all good. If you don't
get it right, don't worry because you got several people
here that can help you. Today we get we just
got a palletho. Folks. You can have Ryan, you can
have Angel, you can have Autumn who's here visiting. You
(06:44):
can have Ambernova or Karen the hat lady who is
Team Piper. Whoever you want can help you if you don't,
if you don't get it right, are you ready, Jeremiah, Yes, sir,
we are all right. This lead singer of an iconic
rock band was knighted by Prince William on Wednesday. Now
the other legendary rock stars have been knighted like Sir
(07:06):
Paul McCartney and Sir Elton John and Sir Mick Jagger,
but they awarded it to someone else this week. This
singer is known for repeatedly yelling at crowd at the
crowds who smoked marijuana. What's the name of this iconic
lead singer of a classic iconic rock band.
Speaker 7 (07:28):
Man, I've been following this one. It's Roger Daltrey.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
It is Roger Dalts. Yeah, well you got that right
off the bat. Very good man. You earned that one. Yeah, yeah,
Roger Daltrey. Which is I find that so funny and
just recently, well it was in the past couple of
years or whatever, he was known for like screaming at
audience members who would go to a Who concert and
they were smoking anything. He would get all pissed off
(07:51):
because he's allergic to smoke, and he said it made
it so he couldn't sing very well. So he seems
like he's sort of a grumpy old man. Are you
Are you a big fan of the Who?
Speaker 7 (08:00):
Jeremiah, I definitely am the old man, you know, raises
up on an old classic rock and yeah, I love
I'll tell you it sounds like he was in our
own profession to take the truth, man, and I want
to be around the crowd like that.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, really, you might have thought about doing something else
if you get I think he developed that he developed
the allergies or whatever later in life, so then he
got mad. He would he would get mad at the
audience for smoking pot, which is sort of weird. But
now he's a sir, so it's Sir Roger Daltrey now,
so there's only a handful of guys that have gotten
that distinction. So hey, congratulations man, how long you've been
(08:34):
listening to the show man.
Speaker 7 (08:36):

Yeah, you know, it comes and goes.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Yeah, you know.

feels like a mistress.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
So where do you call home again? I forget La
La is home?
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah, yeah, I originally New York?
Speaker 3 (12:55):

the fly in all night?
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Rede in this morning at five nineteen? That's rough man, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:05):

lot of people are like a little nervous about flying
was it was it bad? Was it?
Speaker 7 (13:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:12):
No?
Speaker 4 (13:12):
It was pretty straight shot, direct, you know, red Eye.
So uh, you know, I get lucky sometimes, what you mean,
just I don't all the hassling.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah, we have that like past, but you don't have
to like go through TSA and all that, right, like
you just nah?
Speaker 4 (13:29):
I mean I got Clear Clear? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I
got Clear, but not t TSA pre check.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Oh you should. I got that. I know.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I keep hearing about that.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
It just takes a lecture, Yeah, little extra.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Times, right, Yeah, Now Clear is super fast.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
I have Clear as well, and Clear also has pre check.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
They have Clear pre check.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
It's right, all kinds of different ones.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
You have the favorite airport you like to go to,
Not really, I mean they're all the same, it all
the whole.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Yeah. Yeah. Do you feel like if you're if you
go to an air like if you go to the
airport in Austin, but you just had the airport, you
feel like you've been to Austin.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Every every place I go to, it kind of feels
like home because I've been there so many times, whether
it's the airport, the city, the club, the hotels. You know,
after a while, it's just like, yeah, I'm at my
third crib, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Do you look forward to a time when you're not traveling?
Speaker 4 (14:18):
Like, okay, you know, maybe forward to a time when
I'm like private jetting. Okay, because a lot of times
when I'm done with my shows, be it a Sunday
night or a Saturday night. I just want to get
out of.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
There, yeah, you know, and get back to my own
bed and leave when you want to.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Yeah yeah, yeah, instead of having a you know, because
sometimes I especially if I stay out the night before
I'm supposed to leave, and by the time I get
back to the hotel, throw my food down, go to sleep,
I'm working off for two hours of sleep having to
get up early.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Are you doing like fifty weeks a year?
Speaker 4 (14:52):
I'm all all year round.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
How do you how do you stay like I mean,
like you said you sometimes you love it, sometimes you don't.
When you're doing that all the traveling back and forth,
how do you find your inspiration? How do you find
your mused at this point.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
You know, it's one of those things whereas once it's
time to get on stage and it just kind of
hits you. You know, you understand why you do this,
but everything prior to that sometimes becomes a big like.
But once you get in it, man, you're in it.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
You're just are you writing from stage then?
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Or sometimes? Yeah? Yeah. I was in Westbury, New York
last weekend, and I did like a twenty eight hundred
seats sold out in the A round. I get a
call as I'm getting ready to go, you know, go
do soundcheck. Ice Tea hits me up and he just
happens to be out there with his people's Yo man,
(15:43):
I'm coming through, So I'm like, yo, man, pull up.
So him and Tretch from Naughty by Nature show up
and it was a ball man, you know. Of course
I shouted him out and you know, tease them a
little bit. Great sport. So it's good, good man.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Have you okay, I'm not only asking you this because
we had a situation. This was a thing that we
had this year. Have you seen t I do any
stand up comedy lit man?
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I saw the one with him at the Barkley Center.
It was rough.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
And listen, listen, I'm not trying. We interviewed him to
talk about his you know, he had the stand up
comedy thing, but like we couldn't get him to be
funny or anything.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
He was just missing is the problem. And this is
why for comedians, uh huh, this was somewhat satisfactory.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
I don't care how good you are in one genre.
You pay your respect when you step into the field
of another genre. And t I's problem is he approaches
stand up with the same bravado he approaches rap, right,
and it's like, you know, dog, this is not what
you do. You trying to do this, So you to
(16:56):
be a student of the game. First of all, turn
it down your self. Lose some of the bravado on
t I. You know, because because because because it worked
for you in rap, don't mean it's gonna work in as.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
We had him on right and and and normally, I
like when people come in like you come in. I
appreciate so much the fact that you come in here
and talk to us. But he only wanted to do it,
you know, on zoom or whatever. Okay, that's fine. So
he sat there and he had like four other comedians
on zoom on zoom, and they all had to be
on zoom with him because they were the funny ones.
And all they were doing was telling t I how
(17:29):
funny he was, and he was just sitting Well.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
First of all, it was such a prior to COVID.
We know that the the way things went where you
come in the studio. Once COVID hit and then everybody
got lazy. You know what, we don't have to do
this anymore. It's all do zooms. And I personally don't
like zoom because there's an intimacy that that doesn't carry
(17:54):
over on a zoom like it does when you're in studio.
I almost feel like, no matter how funny you are
on a zoom, it ain't gonna be as funny as
in person because there's nothing in between us to stop
the energy. And you know, again, I never met t I.
I mean I think I met him once. God bless them, But.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
That's odd for someone to go into Hey, I can
just stand up now.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
But that's the problem with this business is like everybody
else thinks that they can do it because what it's
done at the top level.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Listen like it, right, I think most people are afraid
of stand up.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
There, absolutely no no. I have to agree because they
say the number one fears for people with public speaking.
And it's one thing to publicly speak and you just speaking,
but to be funny. Yeah, Like if I'm just reading
from a prompter or a script, that's hard enough, but
now you got to be funny.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
But the what I'm saying is like the if you're
an observer looking at it, you're like, oh, that's so easy,
Like I could do it. How many people do you
have you met your entire life that comes up to
you and goes like, oh, I'm so funny, I got
this bit. I could, I should be up there, I
should go do it. And my reponsis them as always,
then just.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Go do it a class clown kind of guy. I
see what you're saying, but I was just I was
just watching an interview the other day was George Clooney
and Adam Sandler and George Clinton. I'm like, there is
no way I would get up and try to be
a stand up comic. That's a scary. Like he's done
all kinds of other stuff, but you know, it's scary
to get up there, you know.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
And that's that's why. Sometimes, you know, you get guys
that will come to comedy clubs who think they're funny
and want to be funny, but what they do is
with what I call a coward move. You know, you
want to heckle because you want to ride off the
coattails and the energy of the comedian. No no, no,
no no. You come in on your own open Mike night,
put together some material and don't lean on the comedian
(19:36):
to ride his waves. Yeah, you go and create your
own waves and listen, that's the thing. The comedy gods
that night said, t I watch this. It was horrific.
And then the funny thing is, but he tried to
play the race card when he told the white guy
about gentrification, like, dude, you just got here, so I'm
(19:56):
not gonna take you the white guy telling me blah
blah blah. But if somebody black, then they can do it.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Don't believe it. Mention though a lot of people probably
don't heckle you anymore, right, Like, like you might have
gotten it when you first started, but are people afraid
to heckle you down?
Speaker 4 (20:15):
I never really got it when I first started.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
You didn't.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
And that's only because you know, I've always been big
in the belief of the material, the substance. And if
you come out there and you got some kick ass
material from Hello to good Night, there's no room to heckle,
you know, because people are into the show yew. Of course,
you got some people that want to test the champ.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Yeah, you know, I've been to some shows with some
really good comics and some people did try.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Everybody wants to shot at the title.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I tried to you know,
it was it was Bob Saggat, So I'm trying to
heckle Bob Saget.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Well, he might be heckable, but he got all.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
But I'll tell you what he got him back.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Oh no, no, listen, because sometimes people also get caught
up in the TV persona right right, and full house tongue,
cheeky kid's family. But he was known to be the
opposite of that. He was blue, dirty, cutthroat. So I
could see why somebody might test him because they just
(21:17):
going off of full house, so, you know, and then
he's got to check you what's that?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
What's that one coming that you kind of don't care
a whole lot about. But he kind of his career
is kind of about heckling of the Matt Matt right
or whatever. He kind of invites it, right.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Yeah, and which has created a new like a new
breed of stand up comedy where like it's open and acceptable.
I find it, like what I find annoying about him.
It's not like him as a person. It's just that
like he's made these guys that make heckling acceptable.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Let's and I always do this let's back up a second,
because I defend Matt to to the to the top.
And here's why. Uh, Matt has everything. Matt has the
four things working for him. It's cruising to Hollywood. He's white,
he's good looking, he's male, and he's funny. And in
Hollywood that quadruple. Look at Ryan Reynolds. You know a
(22:08):
lot of guys are funny, but they're not good looking,
or some guys are really handsome, the funny. When you
have all of that, it breeds jealous no, and a
lot of dudes hate on Matt because of that. And
and I tell people like this, Matt got them comedic
hands man. Whether it's like you look at Sugar Ray
Leonard back in the eighties, good looking dude, Oscar de
(22:30):
la Hoya, Brad Pitt. They got what they got the good.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
But my beef with it isn't. I think he's very talented,
he's great with crowd work. My beef with him and
like people are him, Steve Hofstetter or anybody who owned
who's too afraid to post their material online so they
post crowd work as Heckler's Well, I think I think
that's bad for like, not for them. That's great for them,
But for the guy out at open mic, maybe he's
a couple of years in and the audience maybe isn't
that well trained as a comedy audience.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
That bothers me. And I'm you know, I'm a I'm
a be a little bit of Charles Barkley here. First
of all, I think most people are stupid. Okay, when
you read the comments, it baffles me that I have
to explain this to you instead of common sense taking over. Well,
and I've read what people have said it about me,
then all you do is CrowdWork. You ain't got no material,
(23:17):
So you mean to tell me you think I've been
in this game for thirty six years based off simply
crowd work. First of all, you don't give away the
key of cocaine for free right away. Sample.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
That's the crowd work.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Once people see how good your product is, then they
come to the show and they purchase the key.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Why do some people look down on crowd I think
crowd work takes more talent. Crowd work is on the fly.
Crowd workers CrowdWork.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
To me, it's one of the hardest things to do.
And I always use a football analogy. It's like Listen,
you can be a Hall of Fame Championship quarterback by
staying in the pocket a lot Tom Brady, Peyton Manning.
But if you can Michael Vickett and they eat the
pocket and do crowd work and scramble for the first
(24:01):
down and stay in the pocket, right, you're twice as deadly.
How could that be an issue? So it's just like listen,
and a lot of people that rag crowd work simply
can't do it right exactly, a skill set that is
very hard to do.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
I respect the guys that do crowd work even more.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Even if you don't do crowd work. If you're a
great comic, if you're a great in the pocket quarterback,
hats off to you. Respect. But if you can do both,
I just don't see how you frown on that because
it is an art form. It is a part of
the game. You got to be quick, you got to
be on your toes, and it's not easy. Man.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
You know who does that. We just talked to him
not that long ago, at George Wallace. At George Wallace,
I don't think it's enough respect in the business. And
that guy does incredible crowd work. He's been around for
a long, long time.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, and it's always funny, like you know, people, people
are such narcissists too, entertainers included. But when people say
things online like, oh, you know you do this right,
you do something I don't like unfollow. Let me tell
you something now. In the grand scheme of things, you know,
(25:08):
I'm not like a Kevin Hart. I don't have I
don't know what he has eighty two million followers or
whatever it is. I got like one point six. But
the bottom line is this, I don't think that just
because you decide to get out of the water at
the beach, you make the sea level change, there's a
thousand people waiting to replace you. So you can unfollow
me all you want. As soon as you get out
of line, somebody's taking your spot. You're not that you know,
(25:31):
you don't mean that much.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
You pay attention to social media that much?
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Oh I love it, you know what I love about it?
You know, people will tell me why you go back
and forth with these people?
Speaker 3 (25:41):
You enjoy it.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
I like to play with my food before I eat it,
like metaphors. These cats man for me, it's almost like
you know game tape, you know, looking at it because
I like to take what people say and go, Okay, now,
how do I flip that? Yeah, that was clever, But
how can I out clever of that? Right? So so
and and that can be used on stage. So I'm like,
(26:06):
I'm like, uh, scar facing the balcony scene. I'm taking
on a thousand Colombians.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
And by the way, Harry Spears has already sold out
a bunch of shows. You added another another.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Only one that's not sold out is the early show Saturday.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Right, he added a show, And so my point is
he didn't even have to come in here today. He's
going to sell out all the shows. But I appreciate
you taking the tech. Can you stick for another segment? Sure,
Aery Spears here with us. He's gonna be at the
Funny Bone. He got one more show left. He sold
all the other ones out as he always does, so
so you can get those tickets at the Funny Bone.
By the way, a big thanks to the Funny Bone
for bringing us a bunch of bikes the other the
(26:39):
night for the for the bike drive. So you know,
I appreciate that. That was very very nice for him
to drop all those bikes off for the bike drive.
So we'll be back with Avery Spears. Don't go anywhere.
You're listening to the mantras morning, Hey, thanks for listening
(27:02):
to The Monster's Morning's rob Radio one.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
On four point one.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
Remember tomorrow is Trans Liberian Orchestra two thirty show and
a seven thirty show. I will be at the seventh
thirty show with Ambernova and my family will be there.
They're very nice, Translobarian Orchestra. They take a portion of
the proceeds of the ticket and they give it to
a local charity. They have picked my charity, the Carly
K Cancer Screening Fund, and they're going to present us
(27:25):
a stage a check on stage tomorrow. So if you're
seeing me tomorrow night, please come say hello at Trans
Liberian Orchestra. Tickets are still available for that, and there
still are tickets available for only one show to see
Airy Spears at the Funny Bone. And are you used
to that now? Like, are you used to selling out?
Do you get competitive like that? Do you get pissed
off if you don't sell out? You know?
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Ever since I started taking a videographer with me on
the road, yeah, and then I you know, I took
a page out of Matt Rich's book as I called them,
and I was just like, dude, about a year ago,
you open for me. Now you selling out?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
What what?
Speaker 4 (28:01):
And he goes, yeah, you know, I got a videoographer
and probably cost him six figures to do it. But
now he's raking in you know, yeah, four times that
so ever since I started doing that, And now it's
weird because to a lot of young kids, I'm the
dude from TikTok okay real like I'm a dinosaur man.
I'm a I'm an old negro saurus, you know, And
(28:23):
so I don't get with all this TikTok and social media.
I'm just old school. But for a long time I
wouldn't embrace it. I just was whatever. But I embraced it.
And the videoographer has been cutting together these clips and
everything's been going viral. So yeah, it's it's really pushed
me into a step up.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Made all the difference. Yeah, we have met we have
met comics of coming here and they don't want to
do it, like I'm not doing that and uh and yeah,
I can understand that mindset. But once you do, you know,
embrace it, it probably does. And there are guys that
are that go to the the funny Bone that really
just are TikTok people and they're selling out the damn thing,
but they don't really have the material. Yeah, that's going
(29:08):
to drive you nuts.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
You know that that actually kicked off when back when
vine was a thing, I remember, you know, and it's
like people would get these fifteen minutes of fame when
it comes time to actually go and have some substance.
So it all kind of like works itself out. You know.
It's like my comedic cocaine is pure, you know, it's uncut,
(29:29):
one hundred percent Bolivian yayo. So you know, a lot
of these dudes that get these fifteen minutes of fame,
it's like, you know, the comedy cocaine strong Man, you know.
On the surface, Yeah, because it's the TikTok thing, it's
the Instagram. But at the end of the day, putting
asses in the seats is one thing making them stay
there is something else.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Well. A lot of times it's difficult even to put
the asses in the seats. It surprises me that some
of these TikTok people can sell out.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
It can be, but sometimes the discouraging part is when
you look at what's putting the asses in the seats.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Yeah like that. Yeah, like that's what y'all look going crazy.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
It's been more like because they do the meet and
greets generally afterwards, and it's for them, I think for
their audience, it's more about, like I got the selfie
with them, I got to talk to them. They could
kind of care less what happened on stage.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
That makes sense.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
I just to me, I'm all about the substance.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Yeah, And that's the way I feel about some pod
I mean, I've been doing radio for three years, right,
so some people doing podcasts, I'm like, oh, got them mighty.
And I know you're doing a podcast, right yea, yeah,
how long you've been.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
There's party part part of some aspects of the game.
And I'm not grasping because you know, people that have
heard my podcast go, yo, this is it's wrong. It's unfiltered,
no political correctness. It's exactly what we need. We love it.
But my numbers don't reflect that. Yeah, So I'm like,
I must be doing something wrong or how to figure
(30:58):
out the matrix, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Do you have someone that like they're obviously there are
people helping you do it, right, Like I mean, I'm going.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
To podcast network. We don't do it in the traditional
way in a studio. It's it's actually me and my
feature comedian who opens for me, Andy Steinberg.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
Okay, so what kind of rogue with it?
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Like we do it every week on the road wherever
we're at with the videographer, set up the cameras and
got all the equipment. But yeah, man, I I you
know when you look at like Joe Rogan and I mean.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
That that's a whole not he's amazing, he's killing it,
but whether it's.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Him, theovon or some of these guys out there, you
just go, something's missing it.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
And you know before Joe Rogan was doing what he's doing,
Like he's one of the guys that came in from
the improv to promote the show here with us. You know,
I remember meeting them and talking to him way back then.
But it does seem like now almost every comic has
decided to do a podcast, like yeah, I don't know
if anyone that hadn't.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
It kind of dilutes the market, you know a little bit.
It's like if everybody's trying to get in the studio
fifty four, how cool is being a studio fifty four.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Yeah, so so.
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Everybody's on the other side of the velvet rope.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
What did you decide to do it?
Speaker 4 (32:04):
You know, I just figured if I wasn't doing it,
my daily would be just being on the road sleeping
most of the day.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
I don't really go anywhere unless there's I'm in a
city where there's something to see. Yeah, so why not, right, Well,
you kill some time, take two hours out of your
boring day to do something.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, so I was asking you about
that Kristy Christmas coming up and you You're like, I'm
gonna be working. Yeah, and you've got kids and stuff
at home. So I just watched this movie and it's
with George Clooney and Adam Sandler. I don't know if
what's it called, Yeah, and the Whole Print. And I'm
askwering this question because I admitted this week that I'm
probably guilty of a lot of that. So I'm not
(32:44):
trying to think. But and that is, you know, living
a life and and and working really hard and working
all the time and kind of ignoring the stuff at home,
and then but at the end of your life, do
you sit back and go Man, I'd like to have
a due over. I probably should have spent more time
with the family. Do you worry about that kind because
as you're in the grind and you're doing it a
lot of times and I am just as guilty of it.
(33:05):
So do you think about that kind of.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
Stuff you do as you get older? Yeah, because the
loneliness of life on the road and gets to you.
But if I had it to do all over again,
I mean, this is what this is what allows me
to sit in a thirty thousand dollars seat to go
perform in Saudi Arabia. You know, this is what allows
me to do all the things I want to do.
(33:28):
And you know, family's funny because they complain and complain
and complain, But it's like, if I'm not doing this,
then you're not getting the benefits of this, right, So
you want that too. Yeah, you want the benefits, but
you want the other. You say, you can't have it
both ways. Yeah, you know, you shut up and be happy.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
And when I was watching the movie and thinking about
I'm like, yeah, I do understand what you're saying, but
I personally probably still wouldn't have changed anything.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
Like the Sun's birthday is coming up next week and
for the longest time we've done this and it's like,
you know, we go to Universal Studios in Hollywood and
we get the front of the line passes and probably
about eight people. That's like two thousand dollars, right, and
so so what do you want to do? Do you
do you want to do you wanna wait line? Do
(34:14):
you do you want to not get those like I
go to Disneyland and in La in California and you know,
for five to seven thousand dollars you get a guide, right,
so you skip having to wait in those lines. Now,
let's be honest, most people can't do.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
That correct before that, But do you think one day
there'll be something you're like, man, I should have gone
to that baseball game or that's that football game or whatever.
They try where you can, right, But when the kids
are at Disneyland and they're not having to wait three
hours to ride one ride in the summer, you know,
we just keep we can kill Yeah, but the two
parts of the whole day.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
But have you done the regular day?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Have you done the regular day? Brought them through? Like Okay,
this is what it's like though, and then what you
get because there's always been speak. Listen, man, Once you
it's hard to go from Lopster the fish sticks.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yeah, I guess it's once you. Once you taste that,
there's no going back.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
Would you have your son get into comedy?
Speaker 5 (35:12):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (35:14):
Listen. As a parent, you want to be supportive. But
if you ain't got it, you ain't got it, you know.
And and I think that sometimes it might be frowned
upon to think that as a parent. How dare you
tell you, yeah, you ain't got it, but you know.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
They all got something. It does might not be comedy,
so it.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
Got something, but you know it ain't. You know, everybody, listen,
just because you're the offspring of a famous parent, does it?
Speaker 3 (35:40):
You're not.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
It's not your birthright to the same success.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
James. I mean, he's a good basketball player, but he's
not Lebron.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
I gave you one better than that. Look at the
Jordan Boys.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
Yeah yeah, haven't you heard of them?
Speaker 4 (35:50):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (35:52):
Right?
Speaker 4 (35:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:53):
Yeah? But he made him change the entire because he
was Michael George's son. They had to switch their basketball
shoot from Adidas tonight. It was a whole thing. They
ended up not being that great. Ye, that is you
a personal question?
Speaker 4 (36:03):
Though.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Yes, so I see you've done like almost eight hundred
episodes of your podcast with your opener or your future rather,
what what for you makes a good feature? Why why
is this guy your rider die?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
As far as going on the road, he's a funny dude. Uh,
he's a funny dude. And and plus we don't we
don't clash creatively. You know, there's some guys who you
know and listen. I want you to be as funny
as you can be. But the undercart is never supposed
to be better than the main event.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
That's real.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
I appreciate it though, And and not to say that,
oh my god, if I had a guy who listen,
I'm trying to tread lightly here. I want to I
want to be humble, but I also want to be honest.
Is he aware of that?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
He's aware? He's got to be aware of it.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm a beast man on that mic, so so ain't
too many dudes who're gonna make me sweat.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
And if you were on any given night, rise to
the occasion. We didn't steal up and steal. So I
look forward to it. But there are some guys I've
worked with with that whole objective is to I'm outshine
had well. First of all, good luck and secondly, we're
not supposed to be you know what I mean, were
(37:15):
supposed to be giving on putting on a good show
for the crowd.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
It's not a combat, come on, man, you know.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
So we get along on top of that.
Speaker 3 (37:22):
So yeah, yeah, hey, listen, I appreciate it. Once again,

Okay, very good, All right, who got up first? I
wants to play trivia?
Speaker 5 (05:39):
Amber pick a number between ken because this is somebody
texted this in as a way to mix up the numbers.
All right, okay, Ambery, pick a number between zero and six.
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Two.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I like if we picked names because the names are fun.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
Well it's not.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Picked two.
Speaker 5 (05:59):
No, no, you again, because this person was the whole thing.
It's like, oh, no one ever picks one in five
because you say we'll pick the number of twenty one
and five, so you should say zero and six. Because
then they'll pick a different number. And it did not work.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
That was a lot of thinking. You asked what to do? Right?
Who we got?

Hey, Jeremiah, how you doing.

We're doing good man. How you guys doing this?
Speaker 4 (06:23):
Moring?
Speaker 3 (06:24):
I'm great. Jeremiah, got a tribute question for you. If
you get it right, you're the man. You get to
plug and promote whatever you want. You get a prize
from the Prize Panada. It's all good. If you don't
get it right, don't worry because you got several people
here that can help you. Today we get we just
got a palletho. Folks. You can have Ryan, you can
have Angel, you can have Autumn who's here visiting. You
(06:44):
can have Ambernova or Karen the hat lady who is
Team Piper. Whoever you want can help you if you don't,
if you don't get it right, are you ready, Jeremiah, Yes, sir,
we are all right. This lead singer of an iconic
rock band was knighted by Prince William on Wednesday. Now
the other legendary rock stars have been knighted like Sir
(07:06):
Paul McCartney and Sir Elton John and Sir Mick Jagger,
but they awarded it to someone else this week. This
singer is known for repeatedly yelling at crowd at the
crowds who smoked marijuana. What's the name of this iconic
lead singer of a classic iconic rock band.
Speaker 7 (07:28):
Man, I've been following this one. It's Roger Daltrey.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
It is Roger Dalts. Yeah, well you got that right
off the bat. Very good man. You earned that one. Yeah, yeah,
Roger Daltrey. Which is I find that so funny and
just recently, well it was in the past couple of
years or whatever, he was known for like screaming at
audience members who would go to a Who concert and
they were smoking anything. He would get all pissed off
(07:51):
because he's allergic to smoke, and he said it made
it so he couldn't sing very well. So he seems
like he's sort of a grumpy old man. Are you
Are you a big fan of the Who?
Speaker 7 (08:00):
Jeremiah, I definitely am the old man, you know, raises
up on an old classic rock and yeah, I love
I'll tell you it sounds like he was in our
own profession to take the truth, man, and I want
to be around the crowd like that.
Speaker 3 (08:13):
Yeah, really, you might have thought about doing something else
if you get I think he developed that he developed
the allergies or whatever later in life, so then he
got mad. He would he would get mad at the
audience for smoking pot, which is sort of weird. But
now he's a sir, so it's Sir Roger Daltrey now,
so there's only a handful of guys that have gotten
that distinction. So hey, congratulations man, how long you've been
(08:34):
listening to the show man.
Speaker 7 (08:36):

Speaker 3 (12:38):
Yeah. Yeah, you must enjoy it.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Yeah, you know, it comes and goes.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
Uh, sometimes it feels like a wife. Other times it
feels like a mistress.
Speaker 3 (12:49):
So where do you call home again? I forget La
La is home?
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Yeah, yeah, I originally New York?
Speaker 3 (12:55):
But l a, did you fly in? Did you do
the fly in all night?
Speaker 4 (12:59):
Rede in this morning at five nineteen? That's rough man, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (13:05):
Man, it was I was, uh like right now, A
lot of people are like a little nervous about flying
was it was it bad? Was it?
Speaker 7 (13:11):
No?
Speaker 1 (13:12):
No?
Speaker 4 (13:12):
It was pretty straight shot, direct, you know, red Eye.
So uh, you know, I get lucky sometimes, what you mean,
just I don't all the hassling.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Yeah, we have that like past, but you don't have
to like go through TSA and all that, right, like
you just nah?
Speaker 4 (13:29):
I mean I got Clear Clear? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I
got Clear, but not t TSA pre check.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
Oh you should. I got that. I know.
Speaker 4 (13:36):
I keep hearing about that.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
It just takes a lecture, Yeah, little extra.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Times, right, Yeah, Now Clear is super fast.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
I have Clear as well, and Clear also has pre check.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
They have Clear pre check.
Speaker 3 (13:46):
It's right, all kinds of different ones.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
You have the favorite airport you like to go to,
Not really, I mean they're all the same, it all
the whole.
Speaker 3 (13:53):
Yeah. Yeah. Do you feel like if you're if you
go to an air like if you go to the
airport in Austin, but you just had the airport, you
feel like you've been to Austin.
Speaker 4 (14:01):
Every every place I go to, it kind of feels
like home because I've been there so many times, whether
it's the airport, the city, the club, the hotels. You know,
after a while, it's just like, yeah, I'm at my
third crib, you know what I mean.
Speaker 3 (14:16):
Do you look forward to a time when you're not traveling?
Speaker 4 (14:18):
Like, okay, you know, maybe forward to a time when
I'm like private jetting. Okay, because a lot of times
when I'm done with my shows, be it a Sunday
night or a Saturday night. I just want to get
out of.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
There, yeah, you know, and get back to my own
bed and leave when you want to.
Speaker 4 (14:35):
Yeah yeah, yeah, instead of having a you know, because
sometimes I especially if I stay out the night before
I'm supposed to leave, and by the time I get
back to the hotel, throw my food down, go to sleep,
I'm working off for two hours of sleep having to
get up early.
Speaker 1 (14:50):
Are you doing like fifty weeks a year?
Speaker 4 (14:52):
I'm all all year round.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
How do you how do you stay like I mean,
like you said you sometimes you love it, sometimes you don't.
When you're doing that all the traveling back and forth,
how do you find your inspiration? How do you find
your mused at this point.
Speaker 4 (15:06):
You know, it's one of those things whereas once it's
time to get on stage and it just kind of
hits you. You know, you understand why you do this,
but everything prior to that sometimes becomes a big like.
But once you get in it, man, you're in it.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
You're just are you writing from stage then?
Speaker 4 (15:23):
Or sometimes? Yeah? Yeah. I was in Westbury, New York
last weekend, and I did like a twenty eight hundred
seats sold out in the A round. I get a
call as I'm getting ready to go, you know, go
do soundcheck. Ice Tea hits me up and he just
happens to be out there with his people's Yo man,
(15:43):
I'm coming through, So I'm like, yo, man, pull up.
So him and Tretch from Naughty by Nature show up
and it was a ball man, you know. Of course
I shouted him out and you know, tease them a
little bit. Great sport. So it's good, good man.
Speaker 3 (16:01):
Have you okay, I'm not only asking you this because
we had a situation. This was a thing that we
had this year. Have you seen t I do any
stand up comedy lit man?
Speaker 4 (16:11):
I saw the one with him at the Barkley Center.
It was rough.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
And listen, listen, I'm not trying. We interviewed him to
talk about his you know, he had the stand up
comedy thing, but like we couldn't get him to be
funny or anything.
Speaker 4 (16:27):
He was just missing is the problem. And this is
why for comedians, uh huh, this was somewhat satisfactory.
Speaker 3 (16:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (16:35):
I don't care how good you are in one genre.
You pay your respect when you step into the field
of another genre. And t I's problem is he approaches
stand up with the same bravado he approaches rap, right,
and it's like, you know, dog, this is not what
you do. You trying to do this, So you to
(16:56):
be a student of the game. First of all, turn
it down your self. Lose some of the bravado on
t I. You know, because because because because it worked
for you in rap, don't mean it's gonna work in as.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
We had him on right and and and normally, I
like when people come in like you come in. I
appreciate so much the fact that you come in here
and talk to us. But he only wanted to do it,
you know, on zoom or whatever. Okay, that's fine. So
he sat there and he had like four other comedians
on zoom on zoom, and they all had to be
on zoom with him because they were the funny ones.
And all they were doing was telling t I how
(17:29):
funny he was, and he was just sitting Well.
Speaker 4 (17:32):
First of all, it was such a prior to COVID.
We know that the the way things went where you
come in the studio. Once COVID hit and then everybody
got lazy. You know what, we don't have to do
this anymore. It's all do zooms. And I personally don't
like zoom because there's an intimacy that that doesn't carry
(17:54):
over on a zoom like it does when you're in studio.
I almost feel like, no matter how funny you are
on a zoom, it ain't gonna be as funny as
in person because there's nothing in between us to stop
the energy. And you know, again, I never met t I.
I mean I think I met him once. God bless them, But.
Speaker 3 (18:16):
That's odd for someone to go into Hey, I can
just stand up now.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
But that's the problem with this business is like everybody
else thinks that they can do it because what it's
done at the top level.
Speaker 3 (18:24):
Listen like it, right, I think most people are afraid
of stand up.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
There, absolutely no no. I have to agree because they
say the number one fears for people with public speaking.
And it's one thing to publicly speak and you just speaking,
but to be funny. Yeah, Like if I'm just reading
from a prompter or a script, that's hard enough, but
now you got to be funny.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
But the what I'm saying is like the if you're
an observer looking at it, you're like, oh, that's so easy,
Like I could do it. How many people do you
have you met your entire life that comes up to
you and goes like, oh, I'm so funny, I got
this bit. I could, I should be up there, I
should go do it. And my reponsis them as always,
then just.
Speaker 3 (18:59):
Go do it a class clown kind of guy. I
see what you're saying, but I was just I was
just watching an interview the other day was George Clooney
and Adam Sandler and George Clinton. I'm like, there is
no way I would get up and try to be
a stand up comic. That's a scary. Like he's done
all kinds of other stuff, but you know, it's scary
to get up there, you know.
Speaker 4 (19:14):
And that's that's why. Sometimes, you know, you get guys
that will come to comedy clubs who think they're funny
and want to be funny, but what they do is
with what I call a coward move. You know, you
want to heckle because you want to ride off the
coattails and the energy of the comedian. No no, no,
no no. You come in on your own open Mike night,
put together some material and don't lean on the comedian
(19:36):
to ride his waves. Yeah, you go and create your
own waves and listen, that's the thing. The comedy gods
that night said, t I watch this. It was horrific.
And then the funny thing is, but he tried to
play the race card when he told the white guy
about gentrification, like, dude, you just got here, so I'm
(19:56):
not gonna take you the white guy telling me blah
blah blah. But if somebody black, then they can do it.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
Don't believe it. Mention though a lot of people probably
don't heckle you anymore, right, Like, like you might have
gotten it when you first started, but are people afraid
to heckle you down?
Speaker 4 (20:15):
I never really got it when I first started.
Speaker 3 (20:17):
You didn't.
Speaker 4 (20:18):
And that's only because you know, I've always been big
in the belief of the material, the substance. And if
you come out there and you got some kick ass
material from Hello to good Night, there's no room to heckle,
you know, because people are into the show yew. Of course,
you got some people that want to test the champ.
Speaker 3 (20:39):
Yeah, you know, I've been to some shows with some
really good comics and some people did try.
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Everybody wants to shot at the title.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's what I tried to you know,
it was it was Bob Saggat, So I'm trying to
heckle Bob Saget.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Well, he might be heckable, but he got all.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
But I'll tell you what he got him back.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
Oh no, no, listen, because sometimes people also get caught
up in the TV persona right right, and full house tongue,
cheeky kid's family. But he was known to be the
opposite of that. He was blue, dirty, cutthroat. So I
could see why somebody might test him because they just
(21:17):
going off of full house, so, you know, and then
he's got to check you what's that?
Speaker 3 (21:22):
What's that one coming that you kind of don't care
a whole lot about. But he kind of his career
is kind of about heckling of the Matt Matt right
or whatever. He kind of invites it, right.
Speaker 1 (21:30):
Yeah, and which has created a new like a new
breed of stand up comedy where like it's open and acceptable.
I find it, like what I find annoying about him.
It's not like him as a person. It's just that
like he's made these guys that make heckling acceptable.
Speaker 4 (21:44):
Let's and I always do this let's back up a second,
because I defend Matt to to the to the top.
And here's why. Uh, Matt has everything. Matt has the
four things working for him. It's cruising to Hollywood. He's white,
he's good looking, he's male, and he's funny. And in
Hollywood that quadruple. Look at Ryan Reynolds. You know a
(22:08):
lot of guys are funny, but they're not good looking,
or some guys are really handsome, the funny. When you
have all of that, it breeds jealous no, and a
lot of dudes hate on Matt because of that. And
and I tell people like this, Matt got them comedic
hands man. Whether it's like you look at Sugar Ray
Leonard back in the eighties, good looking dude, Oscar de
(22:30):
la Hoya, Brad Pitt. They got what they got the good.
Speaker 1 (22:34):
But my beef with it isn't. I think he's very talented,
he's great with crowd work. My beef with him and
like people are him, Steve Hofstetter or anybody who owned
who's too afraid to post their material online so they
post crowd work as Heckler's Well, I think I think
that's bad for like, not for them. That's great for them,
But for the guy out at open mic, maybe he's
a couple of years in and the audience maybe isn't
that well trained as a comedy audience.
Speaker 4 (22:57):
That bothers me. And I'm you know, I'm a I'm
a be a little bit of Charles Barkley here. First
of all, I think most people are stupid. Okay, when
you read the comments, it baffles me that I have
to explain this to you instead of common sense taking over. Well,
and I've read what people have said it about me,
then all you do is CrowdWork. You ain't got no material,
(23:17):
So you mean to tell me you think I've been
in this game for thirty six years based off simply
crowd work. First of all, you don't give away the
key of cocaine for free right away. Sample.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
That's the crowd work.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
Once people see how good your product is, then they
come to the show and they purchase the key.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
Why do some people look down on crowd I think
crowd work takes more talent. Crowd work is on the fly.
Crowd workers CrowdWork.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
To me, it's one of the hardest things to do.
And I always use a football analogy. It's like Listen,
you can be a Hall of Fame Championship quarterback by
staying in the pocket a lot Tom Brady, Peyton Manning.
But if you can Michael Vickett and they eat the
pocket and do crowd work and scramble for the first
(24:01):
down and stay in the pocket, right, you're twice as deadly.
How could that be an issue? So it's just like listen,
and a lot of people that rag crowd work simply
can't do it right exactly, a skill set that is
very hard to do.
Speaker 3 (24:16):
I respect the guys that do crowd work even more.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Even if you don't do crowd work. If you're a
great comic, if you're a great in the pocket quarterback,
hats off to you. Respect. But if you can do both,
I just don't see how you frown on that because
it is an art form. It is a part of
the game. You got to be quick, you got to
be on your toes, and it's not easy. Man.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
You know who does that. We just talked to him
not that long ago, at George Wallace. At George Wallace,
I don't think it's enough respect in the business. And
that guy does incredible crowd work. He's been around for
a long, long time.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Yeah, and it's always funny, like you know, people, people
are such narcissists too, entertainers included. But when people say
things online like, oh, you know you do this right,
you do something I don't like unfollow. Let me tell
you something now. In the grand scheme of things, you know,
(25:08):
I'm not like a Kevin Hart. I don't have I
don't know what he has eighty two million followers or
whatever it is. I got like one point six. But
the bottom line is this, I don't think that just
because you decide to get out of the water at
the beach, you make the sea level change, there's a
thousand people waiting to replace you. So you can unfollow
me all you want. As soon as you get out
of line, somebody's taking your spot. You're not that you know,
(25:31):
you don't mean that much.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
You pay attention to social media that much?
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Oh I love it, you know what I love about it?
You know, people will tell me why you go back
and forth with these people?
Speaker 3 (25:41):
You enjoy it.
Speaker 4 (25:42):
I like to play with my food before I eat it,
like metaphors. These cats man for me, it's almost like
you know game tape, you know, looking at it because
I like to take what people say and go, Okay, now,
how do I flip that? Yeah, that was clever, But
how can I out clever of that? Right? So so
and and that can be used on stage. So I'm like,
(26:06):
I'm like, uh, scar facing the balcony scene. I'm taking
on a thousand Colombians.
Speaker 3 (26:10):
And by the way, Harry Spears has already sold out
a bunch of shows. You added another another.
Speaker 4 (26:15):
Only one that's not sold out is the early show Saturday.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Right, he added a show, And so my point is
he didn't even have to come in here today. He's
going to sell out all the shows. But I appreciate
you taking the tech. Can you stick for another segment? Sure,
Aery Spears here with us. He's gonna be at the
Funny Bone. He got one more show left. He sold
all the other ones out as he always does, so
so you can get those tickets at the Funny Bone.
By the way, a big thanks to the Funny Bone
for bringing us a bunch of bikes the other the
(26:39):
night for the for the bike drive. So you know,
I appreciate that. That was very very nice for him
to drop all those bikes off for the bike drive.
So we'll be back with Avery Spears. Don't go anywhere.
You're listening to the mantras morning, Hey, thanks for listening
(27:02):
to The Monster's Morning's rob Radio one.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
On four point one.
Speaker 3 (27:04):
Remember tomorrow is Trans Liberian Orchestra two thirty show and
a seven thirty show. I will be at the seventh
thirty show with Ambernova and my family will be there.
They're very nice, Translobarian Orchestra. They take a portion of
the proceeds of the ticket and they give it to
a local charity. They have picked my charity, the Carly
K Cancer Screening Fund, and they're going to present us
(27:25):
a stage a check on stage tomorrow. So if you're
seeing me tomorrow night, please come say hello at Trans
Liberian Orchestra. Tickets are still available for that, and there
still are tickets available for only one show to see
Airy Spears at the Funny Bone. And are you used
to that now? Like, are you used to selling out?
Do you get competitive like that? Do you get pissed
off if you don't sell out? You know?
Speaker 4 (27:47):
Ever since I started taking a videographer with me on
the road, yeah, and then I you know, I took
a page out of Matt Rich's book as I called them,
and I was just like, dude, about a year ago,
you open for me. Now you selling out?
Speaker 3 (28:00):
What what?
Speaker 4 (28:01):
And he goes, yeah, you know, I got a videoographer
and probably cost him six figures to do it. But
now he's raking in you know, yeah, four times that
so ever since I started doing that, And now it's
weird because to a lot of young kids, I'm the
dude from TikTok okay real like I'm a dinosaur man.
I'm a I'm an old negro saurus, you know, And
(28:23):
so I don't get with all this TikTok and social media.
I'm just old school. But for a long time I
wouldn't embrace it. I just was whatever. But I embraced it.
And the videoographer has been cutting together these clips and
everything's been going viral. So yeah, it's it's really pushed
me into a step up.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Made all the difference. Yeah, we have met we have
met comics of coming here and they don't want to
do it, like I'm not doing that and uh and yeah,
I can understand that mindset. But once you do, you know,
embrace it, it probably does. And there are guys that
are that go to the the funny Bone that really
just are TikTok people and they're selling out the damn thing,
but they don't really have the material. Yeah, that's going
(29:08):
to drive you nuts.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
You know that that actually kicked off when back when
vine was a thing, I remember, you know, and it's
like people would get these fifteen minutes of fame when
it comes time to actually go and have some substance.
So it all kind of like works itself out. You know.
It's like my comedic cocaine is pure, you know, it's uncut,
(29:29):
one hundred percent Bolivian yayo. So you know, a lot
of these dudes that get these fifteen minutes of fame,
it's like, you know, the comedy cocaine strong Man, you know.
On the surface, Yeah, because it's the TikTok thing, it's
the Instagram. But at the end of the day, putting
asses in the seats is one thing making them stay
there is something else.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
Well. A lot of times it's difficult even to put
the asses in the seats. It surprises me that some
of these TikTok people can sell out.
Speaker 4 (29:55):
It can be, but sometimes the discouraging part is when
you look at what's putting the asses in the seats.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
Yeah like that. Yeah, like that's what y'all look going crazy.
Speaker 1 (30:06):
It's been more like because they do the meet and
greets generally afterwards, and it's for them, I think for
their audience, it's more about, like I got the selfie
with them, I got to talk to them. They could
kind of care less what happened on stage.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
That makes sense.
Speaker 4 (30:18):
I just to me, I'm all about the substance.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
Yeah, And that's the way I feel about some pod
I mean, I've been doing radio for three years, right,
so some people doing podcasts, I'm like, oh, got them mighty.
And I know you're doing a podcast, right yea, yeah,
how long you've been.
Speaker 4 (30:36):
There's party part part of some aspects of the game.
And I'm not grasping because you know, people that have
heard my podcast go, yo, this is it's wrong. It's unfiltered,
no political correctness. It's exactly what we need. We love it.
But my numbers don't reflect that. Yeah, So I'm like,
I must be doing something wrong or how to figure
(30:58):
out the matrix, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (30:59):
Do you have someone that like they're obviously there are
people helping you do it, right, Like I mean, I'm going.
Speaker 4 (31:03):
To podcast network. We don't do it in the traditional
way in a studio. It's it's actually me and my
feature comedian who opens for me, Andy Steinberg.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
Okay, so what kind of rogue with it?
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Like we do it every week on the road wherever
we're at with the videographer, set up the cameras and
got all the equipment. But yeah, man, I I you
know when you look at like Joe Rogan and I mean.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
That that's a whole not he's amazing, he's killing it,
but whether it's.
Speaker 4 (31:30):
Him, theovon or some of these guys out there, you
just go, something's missing it.
Speaker 3 (31:34):
And you know before Joe Rogan was doing what he's doing,
Like he's one of the guys that came in from
the improv to promote the show here with us. You know,
I remember meeting them and talking to him way back then.
But it does seem like now almost every comic has
decided to do a podcast, like yeah, I don't know
if anyone that hadn't.
Speaker 4 (31:50):
It kind of dilutes the market, you know a little bit.
It's like if everybody's trying to get in the studio
fifty four, how cool is being a studio fifty four.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Yeah, so so.
Speaker 4 (32:00):
Everybody's on the other side of the velvet rope.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
What did you decide to do it?
Speaker 4 (32:04):
You know, I just figured if I wasn't doing it,
my daily would be just being on the road sleeping
most of the day.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (32:12):
I don't really go anywhere unless there's I'm in a
city where there's something to see. Yeah, so why not, right, Well,
you kill some time, take two hours out of your
boring day to do something.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hey, so I was asking you about
that Kristy Christmas coming up and you You're like, I'm
gonna be working. Yeah, and you've got kids and stuff
at home. So I just watched this movie and it's
with George Clooney and Adam Sandler. I don't know if
what's it called, Yeah, and the Whole Print. And I'm
askwering this question because I admitted this week that I'm
probably guilty of a lot of that. So I'm not
(32:44):
trying to think. But and that is, you know, living
a life and and and working really hard and working
all the time and kind of ignoring the stuff at home,
and then but at the end of your life, do
you sit back and go Man, I'd like to have
a due over. I probably should have spent more time
with the family. Do you worry about that kind because
as you're in the grind and you're doing it a
lot of times and I am just as guilty of it.
(33:05):
So do you think about that kind of.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
Stuff you do as you get older? Yeah, because the
loneliness of life on the road and gets to you.
But if I had it to do all over again,
I mean, this is what this is what allows me
to sit in a thirty thousand dollars seat to go
perform in Saudi Arabia. You know, this is what allows
me to do all the things I want to do.
(33:28):
And you know, family's funny because they complain and complain
and complain, But it's like, if I'm not doing this,
then you're not getting the benefits of this, right, So
you want that too. Yeah, you want the benefits, but
you want the other. You say, you can't have it
both ways. Yeah, you know, you shut up and be happy.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
And when I was watching the movie and thinking about
I'm like, yeah, I do understand what you're saying, but
I personally probably still wouldn't have changed anything.
Speaker 4 (33:54):
Like the Sun's birthday is coming up next week and
for the longest time we've done this and it's like,
you know, we go to Universal Studios in Hollywood and
we get the front of the line passes and probably
about eight people. That's like two thousand dollars, right, and
so so what do you want to do? Do you
do you want to do you wanna wait line? Do
(34:14):
you do you want to not get those like I
go to Disneyland and in La in California and you know,
for five to seven thousand dollars you get a guide, right,
so you skip having to wait in those lines. Now,
let's be honest, most people can't do.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
That correct before that, But do you think one day
there'll be something you're like, man, I should have gone
to that baseball game or that's that football game or whatever.
They try where you can, right, But when the kids
are at Disneyland and they're not having to wait three
hours to ride one ride in the summer, you know,
we just keep we can kill Yeah, but the two
parts of the whole day.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
But have you done the regular day?
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Have you done the regular day? Brought them through? Like Okay,
this is what it's like though, and then what you
get because there's always been speak. Listen, man, Once you
it's hard to go from Lopster the fish sticks.
Speaker 4 (35:03):
Yeah, I guess it's once you. Once you taste that,
there's no going back.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
Would you have your son get into comedy?
Speaker 5 (35:12):
Uh?
Speaker 4 (35:14):
Listen. As a parent, you want to be supportive. But
if you ain't got it, you ain't got it, you know.
And and I think that sometimes it might be frowned
upon to think that as a parent. How dare you
tell you, yeah, you ain't got it, but you know.
Speaker 1 (35:29):
They all got something. It does might not be comedy,
so it.
Speaker 4 (35:32):
Got something, but you know it ain't. You know, everybody, listen,
just because you're the offspring of a famous parent, does it?
Speaker 3 (35:40):
You're not.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
It's not your birthright to the same success.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
James. I mean, he's a good basketball player, but he's
not Lebron.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
I gave you one better than that. Look at the
Jordan Boys.
Speaker 1 (35:48):
Yeah yeah, haven't you heard of them?
Speaker 4 (35:50):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (35:52):
Right?
Speaker 4 (35:53):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (35:53):
Yeah? But he made him change the entire because he
was Michael George's son. They had to switch their basketball
shoot from Adidas tonight. It was a whole thing. They
ended up not being that great. Ye, that is you
a personal question?
Speaker 4 (36:03):
Though.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Yes, so I see you've done like almost eight hundred
episodes of your podcast with your opener or your future rather,
what what for you makes a good feature? Why why
is this guy your rider die?
Speaker 4 (36:12):
As far as going on the road, he's a funny dude. Uh,
he's a funny dude. And and plus we don't we
don't clash creatively. You know, there's some guys who you
know and listen. I want you to be as funny
as you can be. But the undercart is never supposed
to be better than the main event.
Speaker 1 (36:30):
That's real.
Speaker 4 (36:30):
I appreciate it though, And and not to say that,
oh my god, if I had a guy who listen,
I'm trying to tread lightly here. I want to I
want to be humble, but I also want to be honest.
Is he aware of that?
Speaker 1 (36:46):
He's aware? He's got to be aware of it.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
I'm a beast man on that mic, so so ain't
too many dudes who're gonna make me sweat.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (36:54):
And if you were on any given night, rise to
the occasion. We didn't steal up and steal. So I
look forward to it. But there are some guys I've
worked with with that whole objective is to I'm outshine
had well. First of all, good luck and secondly, we're
not supposed to be you know what I mean, were
(37:15):
supposed to be giving on putting on a good show
for the crowd.
Speaker 3 (37:17):
It's not a combat, come on, man, you know.
Speaker 4 (37:20):
So we get along on top of that.
Speaker 3 (37:22):
So yeah, yeah, hey, listen, I appreciate it. Once again,
I thank you every year. I appreciate you taking time
to come see us. I really do appreciate you. Have
a wonderful holiday. And once again, he just got one

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
