00:00
So I get to El Salvador.
00:03
Salvador crickets, yeah,
00:06
they were like, you like,
00:10
I kept going. My tia at the end,
00:12
she's like, I didn't know and I explained it.
00:25
MGL we back. It's the guys today.
00:32
from Burbank, California with H 00 Z A Y who say
00:39
thank you so much for making a drive out here.
00:40
Like you were saying,
00:40
you're in Downey. But yeah,
00:41
I mean, it's a drive though,
00:42
so we appreciate you coming in,
00:43
man. I know we linked up a couple of times,
00:45
but not here, not in the studio,
00:47
not in the stoop like they say we were surrounded by pupusas
00:51
pupusa pizza. I went crazy at that spot.
00:55
Oh man, I remember driving a Tora.
00:58
You ever drive when you eat too much and it's just like
01:00
the seatbelts reminding me it's like that,
01:04
I'm like, why is it locked?
01:05
But I've tried, I tried one of like what we got
01:08
We got a lot of stuff,
01:08
we got the pizza one,
01:09
you know like a Korean barbecue,
01:11
Korean barbecue, esa,
01:12
the, what was another one?
01:14
I remember having all of them.
01:15
Like I was like mixing.
01:17
Was that the first time you had pupusas ever,
01:21
that's that's a good intro to pupusasa pizza bro.
01:25
Wait, is it papusa or pupusa pupusa because he has a
01:26
and was it with an a or you like papusas.
01:26
I don't pus. I mean,
01:37
it's usually white people that are trying to appreciate it,
01:42
Is it Salvadorian or what was the Salvadoran Salvadoran.
01:46
00, so it's controversial.
01:49
It's controversial. So the correct demonym in the English language is
01:53
Salvadoran, right? Honduran R A N.
01:58
People get mad. The most popular version is Salvadorian,
02:04
I figured it out though.
02:04
I figured out, I think it's because,
02:06
we have Spanish speakers,
02:08
Salvadorian Salvadorian Salvadorian. If you say in English,
02:14
Salvadorian, Salvadorian. But the correct spelling is R A N
02:19
Yeah. So when I say your Salvadoran friend it's fine
02:26
But when you spell it in English,
02:27
when you see it in documents and papers and it's Salvador or
02:30
R E A N is another spelling.
02:33
And that's a whole another you got the E army,
02:35
the I army, everybody said no.
02:37
Oh my God, it's a whole battle,
02:46
what's it called, it's like the controversy and all that stuff
02:48
I know you put a lot of clips.
02:49
Not all of them are controversial,
02:50
but the range. I try,
02:51
I try to stay non-controversial you're good,
02:53
and then I get canceled for a little things regardless,
02:56
really. It's like I like pupusas without cortido.
02:59
So you're saying you say fuck curtido.
03:01
No, I didn't say that.
03:02
I just said sometimes I don't want it with curtido.
03:05
It's like I went through your comments and I'm like,
03:07
damn, like 79 comments.
03:11
no, this is a whole other video right here in the
03:14
comments. Salvadorran is controversial.
03:17
what's the other one?
03:24
It's no fresca, yeah,
03:29
I like that because it's shorter.
03:30
I mean, but then again,
03:31
it's just like opens it up to like when I go to
03:33
restaurants in Mexico, like agua is is it simple or like
03:39
what's the sparkling water sing or like I like I was
03:43
called aguaola here growing up.
03:44
I'm like I don't know if that was like the gringo way
03:45
of doing the pocho way.
03:46
It's like aguaola. It means it's tap water or agua mineral
03:50
It's like the freaking sparkling water.
03:52
But Salvi is another controversial,
03:56
salvi, the term salvi.
03:58
It's like people get mad,
03:59
especially like the older Salvadrenos.
04:01
They're like, it sounds,
04:04
is it more like a US thing there?
04:06
Like, oh, like Lexi Dominicans is Puerto Rican.
04:10
I think it's more of a like a,
04:12
I think West Coast thing kind of originated over here and it's
04:16
kind of traveled out in El Salvador.
04:22
But you know, it's still,
04:24
it's still getting there.
04:24
It's still getting there.
04:25
We're fairly new. We're fairly new in all this stuff.
04:28
It's kind of like a whole like Gen Z generational thing where
04:30
it's like, I don't like that.
04:31
It's like, all right,
04:32
you know, you don't have to say it,
04:33
but that one's always controversial.
04:36
I mean, I have friends that are like are completely like
04:38
Don't you ever call me that.
04:41
my bad. I didn't even call it,
04:42
but if you saw it got triggered,
04:43
I don't know what to tell you.
04:44
That's on you. I remember,
04:46
TikTok had the Latinx Casa Latinx or something.
04:49
And had a sticker and people were going off on the sticker
04:53
I'm like, I didn't create this.
04:55
That's just what it is with people you already know is like
05:01
they're going to go off on it.
05:02
That's the thing with the internet,
05:03
I think when you reach a certain amount of views,
05:07
it reaches a certain population,
05:09
then when you get into the millions,
05:10
it just opens it up to floodgates.
05:12
Yeah, the floodgates are open and everybody's got an opinion.
05:16
And like everybody's right.
05:17
Speaking, speaking of the internet,
05:19
like,, I remember seeing a lot of comedians,
05:22
bro, like I'm not using social media,
05:25
you know, it's not part of me.
05:26
I'm not, but like as the times,
05:30
slowly more of them are jumping on it.
05:33
Like, have you been using social media to your advantage and
05:36
what you think for sure all those comedians that were like,
05:39
Nah, I'm not social media at all like from the start
05:40
though, or were you also kind of like,
05:46
I've been in the game forever.
05:48
OG OG and I started doing social media in 2020,
05:52
right, during the pandemic.
05:54
I was always doing social media,
05:55
but nothing ever hit,
05:56
right? Nothing like I was doing videos.
05:59
and then when the pandemic hit,
06:00
I started doing the videos,
06:02
the theo shopping videos.
06:04
yeah. You're always behind the camera though,
06:06
right? Behind the camera,
06:07
just the voice. That's awesome.
06:10
right? And I was like,
06:11
OK, well now let's start creating some other stuff.
06:14
And everything started taking off and I was like,
06:15
OK, well now that's a platform I can use to promote
06:18
And I remember the first show we did coming off the
06:20
pandemic, I promoted the comedy boss and beer.
06:23
That was it. That's that's what we're having.
06:26
We had 300 people show up.
06:28
Oh shoot, this is a powerful tool to utilize in the
06:33
right? So I was like,
06:33
OK. The only reason I could sell tickets nationally was because
06:37
of social media, right?
06:38
Like the power of social.
06:38
It's, it's not always bad,
06:41
right? There's some good.
06:42
There's some good. It's a whole other muscle though.
06:44
So it's like. It's like running a business,
06:46
right? It's like you got,
06:47
you got to do the marketing too,
06:49
right? We're the product,
06:50
we're we're we're the talent,
06:52
but you need a marketing department so people know where you're going
06:55
to be. And more on that on the fans coming out
06:58
I feel like sometimes there's hecklers that like,
07:01
again, they're just drunk and they just happen to be there
07:03
watching or they're super fans that just want to chime in on
07:06
everything. Have you ever had experiences like that?
07:08
Yeah, like do like so it's funny because like I have
07:13
some people that come out multiple times,
07:15
right? Like I have a joke saying we had a baby
07:18
during the pandemic. Her name is Pandemia.
07:20
Quarantina via la corona,
07:23
right? And so sometimes I'll use that joke often,
07:26
right? And so if they've been to my pandemia,
07:29
pandemia, I'm let me get to it.
07:33
Hold on to the joke.
07:34
Yeah, yeah. I'm trying to set up the kids,
07:38
right? I'm talking about my kids like,
07:40
Oh, pandemia. I'm like,
07:41
yeah, yeah. Hold on,
07:42
I'm going to get to it.
07:43
I'm going to get to it.
07:44
But people are excited.
07:46
I haven't had any drunk people recently,
07:50
but you do the bar shows people get,
07:54
you know, but it's crazy because sometimes I feel like Yeah
07:57
you're heckling, but the comedian makes them part of the
08:00
yeah, now they're just like,
08:02
that's a skill for sure loading on them.
08:04
Well, I think people see like,
08:07
in my crowd work that man on social media.
08:09
What do you think on that,
08:10
bro? Because I feel like some people hate it and like
08:13
Matt Rice is like the biggest,
08:15
I think so. Even like for me,
08:17
right, so I don't put out a lot of material online
08:20
because that's my material if you're going to come see me,
08:21
that's those jokes. But I think crowd work is excellent,
08:26
content because it's crowd work.
08:27
It happened then and there.
08:28
You're not going to reuse that same interactions at the next show
08:32
so it's perfect content.
08:34
But you know I think for stand-up,
08:36
oh, OK, he's going to,
08:37
we're going to do a bit.
08:38
We're going to do a video.
08:39
I'm going to yell something out and we're going to turn it
08:41
into something. And I think that's where you know it can
08:44
go sideways. I think if the audience knows the comedian and
08:48
they know what they're going for,
08:49
then they're like, OK,
08:50
because I've been seeing,
08:51
you've seen the one where the dude pairs people up and like
08:53
I think you guys should date.
08:54
You're single. You're single.
08:57
yeah yeah. And I'm like,
09:00
Is this real? Or like Alfred's Alfred's Alfred,
09:03
brings up the guy and he's like humping on stage.
09:06
right? He's like the Jose Luis.
09:09
How did you find these people?
09:11
I mean, they just happen to be there again,
09:12
a little, a little pisto monos.
09:15
That's what's up. But that school of on the spot is
09:18
like I'll be watching the videos and I'm like,
09:20
damn. I can't come up with that on the spot.
09:22
Like I would have to sit down.
09:23
It's a write down jokes about you and then come back.
09:27
It's a whole different muscle.
09:29
Yeah. It's doing stand up.
09:30
I got something that I'll tell people,
09:33
but I'm also thinking,
09:34
right? So I'm talking and thinking in my head at the
09:37
because you don't want to recite it word for word.
09:39
Like you're kind of going off with the with the.
09:40
It's a conversation. Yeah,
09:42
yeah, yeah. So you're having fun,
09:43
you're conversating. Obviously you have jokes,
09:44
right? That you squeeze in,
09:46
but you're still trying to figure out,
09:47
OK, where am I going to go,
09:49
what's next? And then something happens like,
09:51
how can we tie that into what we're doing?
09:54
It's a whole muscle you got to that's why I can't do
09:56
it. No, you can do it.
09:58
You just gotta do it.
09:59
Practice, no set will ever be the same because I already
10:02
erased the last two sentences.
10:04
So it's like I can never,
10:05
every set will be different because I can't,
10:08
I can't remember when I started,
10:11
it was the comedy union.
10:12
I would do Friday nights every Friday.
10:14
And it was a bringer show where you bring your friends.
10:17
And so I would write new material every Friday,
10:20
right? And I would just like dump the old material like
10:22
that. I already did those.
10:24
And so every Friday I was writing and then I figured out
10:26
the comedians were reusing their jokes.
10:28
you can keep the jokes.
10:29
I don't have to come up with fresh stuff.
10:32
Yeah, yeah, keep building your material,
10:34
you know. Offload the old stuff,
10:37
mix it in, refresh it.
10:39
But it took me a while to figure out like,
10:40
oh wait, I can reuse the jokes.
10:43
No, yeah, I remember when I first started going into
10:45
comedy at the Comedy Store,
10:47
I remember like people like,
10:48
you did that joke last time.
10:49
I'm like, he's working on material,
10:50
but I also understood what they're doing,
10:52
like, ah, he's building the set.
10:54
He's working it out,
10:55
seeing where they laugh,
10:56
where they don't laugh,
10:57
and swapping in and out.
10:59
I've never seen one like somebody they practice that.
11:02
Well, it's because I used to go.
11:03
do like maybe every other week.
11:05
Yo, I'm practicing sometimes,
11:07
but again, to the point of comedians,
11:09
I don't know if you're joking or not,
11:10
like, I want to try something out.
11:11
And then I hear that like,
11:13
Hey, can I try a joke with you guys?
11:14
I'm like, you tried it out last month,
11:15
so I know you're just,
11:16
it's a bit, you know,
11:18
you start with a joke,
11:19
right? And then you get the joke builds into a bit
11:21
and then it builds into a set,
11:22
and then you know builds into an act.
11:24
So it's like little by little you're crazy,
11:27
bro. It's cool seeing the process,
11:29
much respect to you,
11:31
I know it's not easy,
11:31
to your point, like.
11:33
When I have to recite something,
11:34
if someone coughs something off,
11:35
like coughs, I'm like,
11:39
yeah, I have to reset and start over,
11:41
I did a show in El Salvador,
11:43
right, and it was my first really big show in Spanish
11:46
And so I was practicing here,
11:48
you know, doing shows in Spanish,
11:49
but. It's a whole different vibe.
11:51
And so I was a little nervous.
11:52
Like, are they going to get it?
11:54
you know, are they going to be?
11:59
But yeah, you get into your head and you're like,
12:00
OK, well, let's go with it.
12:02
You just got to be in the moment though.
12:05
You think that translate?
12:08
Or is it the other way around,
12:09
like the Spanish jokes more in English.
12:12
I did one, I was doing one because the joke is
12:14
that I'm the self-appointed Salvadoran cultural ambassador,
12:17
right? And so I'm going to figure out ways to better
12:19
the economy and one of the solutions that I had was I'm
12:22
going to start a worldwide cundina.
12:25
Right, Aanda. We're going to start a tanda.
12:29
So, OK, so put me on,
12:30
put me on. That's why I'm laughing,
12:33
so that's the point,
12:34
right? So attanda cundina,
12:36
it's basically a pool of money with friends or family,
12:46
so every community has their own name for it,
12:48
right? And so the joke was working hereanina,
12:52
right. And so I get to El Salvador.
12:55
Salvador. Nobody crickets.
13:00
Yeah, they were like,
13:01
you like, what is a cundina?
13:04
I kept going, my tia at the end,
13:06
she's like, and I explained it.
13:11
Oh, the whole thing.
13:19
So it's finding like,
13:20
OK, what is the right word for,
13:22
you know, especially in Spanish.
13:24
Because Spanish, and I'm sure like I just said,
13:27
so, if you were to do one in DR,
13:29
the Joker in there and they would get it.
13:30
They would just get it,
13:34
you know, like understand it,
13:36
and that's the thing I've been figuring out doing the Spanish shows
13:38
like, OK, there's Spanish,
13:40
but there's got to be Spanish for everyone,
13:42
like a general Spanish tough.
13:44
No, yeah, that's what I'm saying it varies by region
13:45
Like if you grew up in LA versus fucking Nor Cal
13:48
somewhere like. Those Latinos that influence your,
13:51
your Spanish definitely had an effect.
13:53
So what was it called again?
13:54
You said in El Salvador?
13:55
Yeah, for me I've only,
13:56
yeah, so next India they call it a chip fund,
14:03
a chip fund, shit fund.
14:06
But it's like shit goes back 10 weeks,
14:07
right? We're talking about the same thing,
14:08
like 10 weeks, everybody gives 100,
14:12
I usually get the last 2 weeks.
14:14
I took 2 numbers this time.
14:15
Well, what's the best one,
14:16
because people always say,
14:16
oh no, right away I get 9 and 10 just because
14:18
It's your own money simmers.
14:20
It's your own money and it's like I try to always line
14:22
it up with the week before I get paid so it feels
14:25
like I get paid twice my first numbers,
14:28
the first number, yeah,
14:29
I got it. I still got to pay it every week
14:31
I mean, I heard it sketchy because some people leave
14:33
sometimes. We have to get a good trusted group.
14:35
This is why is so important and my sociedads with gente de
14:41
They will not play with me.
14:42
Like Jesus will get them.
14:44
That's why a cundina mundial would not work.
14:48
Oh man. And speaking of El Salvador,
14:50
you have this clip that was pretty freaking hilarious.
14:53
We're talking about like expats.
14:55
yeah, and I don't want to give it away,
14:56
so you guys go check it out.
14:58
But, I saw this clip that's going,
15:02
I mean, I went to Guadalajara last year actually around this
15:04
time. There's this town,
15:07
it's called Ajjic in like around Chapala and Jalisco,
15:10
right, Guadalajara area,
15:11
Masumenos. And everything's in English and Spanish.
15:15
I'm like, What's going on here?
15:15
It's like people from the US move here.
15:18
It's essentially their town.
15:21
Again, my bougie cousin had his wedding there because again,
15:23
it's a beautiful area,
15:23
but it's a lot of expats.
15:25
Like again, the coffee shop lady took my order in English
15:27
I'm like, what's going on?
15:29
Again, I felt expatriates,
15:33
to your point, they call something else if that was the
15:39
the joke is that like,
15:41
you know, if ICE pulls me over,
15:42
I'm an expat. I'm an expat.
15:44
It's not going to work,
15:46
but they go to other countries and they're they're expats.
15:50
They hear expats. I bet that.
15:53
It's funny because in the comments people are fighting.
15:55
It's different. Like you know if you're,
15:59
it's not. It's the same shit.
16:02
but again, depending on who you ask,
16:04
right? And the reason I bring that up is because there
16:05
was a video that went viral yesterday.
16:10
Did I fuck up already?
16:12
Iraq, right? All right.
16:14
team played in Mexico against Bolivia's soccer team,
16:19
some people had a layover in Dallas,
16:21
and they had a sign,
16:22
and this, it looks like a white dude obviously comes through
16:24
rips the sign up like,
16:25
no, we don't play soccer here,
16:28
super like, you know,
16:28
ignorant racist. But then they land in Mexico for the game
16:32
bro, puro des madre,
16:34
like cheering, dancing,
16:36
enjoying the food. They have never partied like that.
16:39
Yeah, I've seen some clips and I'm like,
16:41
so here's the video of when they,
16:43
when they're at the Dallas airport.y.
16:52
What the fucking because they were speaking another language,
17:04
I think it was celebrating,
17:07
and yeah soccer team,
17:08
but again, they're in the airport.
17:09
They do that. That happens.
17:10
They go to Mexico again,
17:12
completely different story. They're like enjoying their love.
17:14
They're showing love to the culture,
17:15
the music, the food there.
17:16
It's a big party over there,
17:17
and Mexico's not even playing.
17:18
It's Bolivia and Iraq,
17:20
but it is in Mexico.
17:21
They're just playing there,
17:24
I wanted to ask you guys like,
17:26
Are we seriously ready for the World Cup?
17:29
no, we're not ready.
17:30
Like you again, Mexico,
17:31
good, good start so far with these friendly matches or not
17:34
friendly matches, but these soccer matches.
17:36
Canada, I'm sure it's gonna be also the same story,
17:38
you know, puro party,
17:41
they can't even step foot in the fucking airport,
17:43
bro. You've seen what happened to our airports this past week
17:47
that's what I'm saying.
17:47
Like that's not even around that World Cup.
17:51
It's gonna be crazy.
17:54
I don't know if we could pull out in time,
17:55
but what if they cancel some games can you ever pull out
17:58
in time? So far so good.
18:06
say, bro. Like when is the World Cup in June
18:09
in June? It's like half,
18:10
yeah, middle of June to the whole month.
18:12
It's middle of July,
18:15
we can't even hold airports down.
18:17
Imagine you saw what they did in,
18:19
the Colombian fans in Miami.
18:20
I think that time 50.
18:23
with the vet people jump in the gate this and that unless
18:26
you have military there,
18:27
I don't know, bro like isn't gonna get crazy yeah dude
18:31
I mean, I don't know it just sucks because again
18:33
people, people are on edge,
18:35
yeah, we're on edge and then people again we're inviting other
18:37
countries to come celebrate the beautiful sport of soccer fiddle.
18:42
If we're starting off like this,
18:44
I feel like whatever happens now is going to let us know
18:46
about the Olympics. Like if we can't handle the World Cup
18:49
how can we handle the Olympics?
18:51
LA is a little bit more,
18:53
you know, I could say welcoming to people,
18:56
you know, Trump's America,
18:58
not to get all freaking tin foil hat,
19:00
but like it's a different vibe,
19:02
bro, a different vibe.
19:06
People are, I don't know,
19:07
like they're ready to fight.
19:11
That's why I tell people,
19:12
go to a comedy show right now.
19:15
Go support your local comedian.
19:16
Go laugh a little bit.
19:19
Close your social media for a day or two and just go
19:22
laugh. It's important right now for real.
19:26
And then they lock your phone up too,
19:29
disconnect because I feel like social media that I like,
19:33
like right now I've been,
19:34
getting into fitness.
19:35
I've been working out and,
19:38
I, I joined as a High Rocks affiliate.
19:43
it's, it's a whole like fitness competition.
19:47
My social media high rocks.
19:50
I'm like, I didn't even like how?
19:52
Why does it do this algorithm,
19:56
it's just feeding me all this stuff and I'm like,
19:59
can you imagine if you start consuming the negative stuff,
20:02
you just get the negative.
20:04
All the negagativity gets on social media.
20:07
And then your world just comes closing in.
20:09
So you got to disconnect.
20:11
You put that phone down and you see a son for a
20:13
little bit, you forget about everything that's,
20:15
yeah, that's bad and then speaking of consuming,
20:19
brother. This shit fried me so bad.
20:24
Oh, you did see this.
20:26
see, it's the algorithm that,
20:28
you see, you're talking about algorithms,
20:30
bro. This algorithm fried me and you because we both came
20:33
bro? I was frying the word.
20:34
Apparently there's gonna be a bunch of crunch dispenser at movie theaters
20:37
because people already add it to their popcorn sometimes,
20:39
right? And so they're gonna have like,
20:41
you know, your bucket of popcorn,
20:42
you know, concession stand,
20:44
you kind of mix it in there,
20:45
chocolate with popcorn. And our big backs were like,
20:53
Yeah. That's a million dollar invention right there.
20:55
They used it for April Fools,
20:57
y'all think this is a joke.
21:00
I will pay extra to access the bunch of crunch machine.
21:05
get one in your house.
21:06
Imagine that. You put a little hand in on the,
21:08
Just grab a little handful,
21:10
yeah, yeah, exactly dispenser.
21:16
but I can't believe they would play with our emotions like that
21:18
Did you see the comments like this shit better not be
21:21
because they launched it a few days before.
21:22
Again, they kind of planted to see,
21:24
let's just get them all riled up,
21:25
freaking nasty, bro.
21:26
What's your, what's your,
21:28
you ever snuck anything into a movie theater?
21:31
Oh man, I think we used to sneak in like whole
21:34
yeah, yeah. I was telling him like for one,
21:38
what was it? What was it?
21:39
so I snuck into House of Wax.
21:41
The craziest meal I ever snuck in was the olden of chicharon
21:43
with tostones. And I was telling him the whole process of
21:47
opening it and everything was so funny.
21:49
Everybody was laughing in the movie and then the whole shit smelled
21:52
like a restaurant. Were you always trying to be sneaky where
21:55
like when it gets loud,
21:58
I remember the, the movie theater was packed too.
22:00
Some girl goes like that and I'm like squeezing the limon on
22:03
top of the chicharron.
22:07
Some dude was laughing next to me.
22:09
y'all want? Like what's good.
22:10
I was like, this would like,
22:11
so Freciste, at least you're like,
22:14
here you go for sure.
22:15
And they, they didn't check,
22:17
I didn't have to sneak it in,
22:17
bro. I literally just walked in with.
22:19
Yeah, some dudes didn't care.
22:20
They were just like,
22:21
Yo, whatever. I got this shit across the street,
22:23
bro. Like I know y'all know the spot.
22:24
Y'all know the Dona I got it from.
22:27
said we. I know you're hungry.
22:29
I mean, popcorn's no joke,
22:31
bro. It's like what,
22:32
$12 for the little bucket right now,
22:34
and then the sodas like $10.12 dollars.
22:35
This is $20 if it ever comes out.
22:40
the crunch a bunch and the popcorn,
22:41
$22.99 dollars. And the worst part is I always get those
22:45
little coupons like the AAA and stuff.
22:47
They don't even cover the actual popcorn costs,
22:49
so you still owe this much.
22:50
I'm like, then what the fuck was the point of the
22:51
of the voucher, dumb ass shit.
22:53
Oh man. To get you in there,
22:56
yeah, that's true scam,
22:58
marketing right there, he knows I got to get on your
23:01
regimen, bro. My big back math is not math.
23:05
I fitness, shout out to them,
23:08
yeah, they got locked in.
23:09
They got me locked in.
23:12
right, because I started from zero.
23:13
I was on tour last year traveling commiendo de Todo.
23:18
That's nothing right now.
23:19
You're not touring, bro.
23:20
I'm not. I'm not touring,
23:23
but like that little gap when I go on,
23:25
when I go out for something,
23:27
it throws off the whole routine of you know Inacio and like
23:30
not being late. Like right now I'm eating.
23:33
Why am I ordering food la de la Noche?
23:35
Yeah, that's the thing.
23:36
That's horrible. You do a show late at night and then
23:39
we eat late at night,
23:40
yeah, we're eating big meals and it's like,
23:43
yeah, I'm trying to cancel it out with this Diet Coke
23:45
but it doesn't work.
23:47
It doesn't work. Well,
23:48
that reminds me, like,
23:49
you know, I'm a proud,
23:50
no, I'm, I'm not a proud big back,
23:52
but I'm a, you know,
23:54
so this got me excited and you talk about Diet
23:56
Coke canceling out stuff.
23:57
What's some big back math that you guys,
23:59
you know, want to put people on to?
24:00
Because I have some that I'll start it off.
24:02
It's not really mine,
24:03
dude at Jersey Mikes,
24:04
shout out to the guy at Jersey Mike's.
24:06
you have the points for the giant sub for free.
24:09
but let me tell you something.
24:10
If you get two like regular subs,
24:12
it's the same amount of points as a giant,
24:14
and you get more meat.
24:16
He's like, when we do the giant,
24:17
you know, like spread out more than that.
24:19
It's less. You know,
24:20
it gets you less full.
24:23
So that was my big bag hack for Jersey Mike's.
24:25
So if you're going to the beach or something,
24:26
I got you. The big bag hacks is the,
24:28
the,, fast food apps because you always get points
24:31
and free food. It's like I'm checking my app for you
24:34
I've been letting my Chick fil A because I just got
24:37
I've been letting it build up and all I see.
24:39
700 points just to get this and I haven't checked how much
24:42
I have my big back savings but it's offering me now when
24:44
I go pay for something,
24:45
it's like little, it's like,
24:46
yo, you could use a little 700 points you build up
24:49
for these little mini cheeky if you want.
24:51
I'm not. I'm just letting,
24:52
I'm just banking that for those are free calories you for paying
24:58
you know, I'm a big bag.
24:59
I get the Domino's notification.
25:02
Domino's at 4:29 every day.
25:04
Look, I'm convinced it knows when I'm near one,
25:09
that we're having a special.
25:11
Either that or I'm thinking of like,
25:12
what's for dinner tonight?
25:13
And then like Domino's hit me up and Chick fil A.
25:19
2 hours ago. Sometimes I feel like it's connected.
25:21
Like you just think about it,
25:22
right? And like how,
25:23
how did I just think about this?
25:25
I didn't even say it out loud.
25:27
I don't know. It's hearing our stomach growl or something.
25:29
My phones are tuned in,
25:30
bro. It knows when I get hungry.
25:32
It knows when I'm home.
25:34
It's sketchy stuff. Oh man.
25:38
speaking of sketchy, first jobs,
25:44
yeah. So let me see,
25:47
because comedy, you've been doing that for forever,
25:51
so the earliest one that's why I used to work with my
25:54
uncle in his lunch truck.
25:57
And so he had he had just bought a lunch truck.
25:59
He used to work at like a Tam's kind of place,
26:01
like a burger joint,
26:02
and he went out on his own and got a lunch truck
26:05
but it was just him.
26:06
And so he taught me how to do the burgers,
26:08
the hot dogs and stuff,
26:09
and then he put me in the kitchen and he was in
26:11
the front like, you know,
26:12
with the customers and I'm like,
26:14
I'm over here making burgers on the weekend.
26:17
Oh, I must have been what,
26:19
1314 in the kitchen.
26:22
And then right after high school,
26:24
well, during the summer,
26:26
the last summer, my cousin was working assembling furniture for IKEA
26:32
no, no, not in the fabric,
26:35
you would buy the IKEA furniture.
26:37
And then you would call this company and they would send out
26:39
people to go assemble.
26:40
Yeah, yeah, he would go build it.
26:42
So he would take me as his helper and I started assembling
26:45
furniture. I keep furniture in people's homes.
26:47
And then when I graduated,
26:48
that was like my first full-time job assembling furniture.
26:52
What you did. That first check.
26:53
Oh man, it was good money.
26:55
The first check that you got.
26:59
well, I saved a lot.
27:01
I wouldn't spend it.
27:02
I would just work and Yeah,
27:03
took away, put it away.
27:06
I wouldn't spend. A lot of money.
27:08
I do remember one of the,
27:10
because I always wanted a remote remote control car.
27:13
We can never afford one,
27:16
just the regular, yeah,
27:18
yeah, yeah. And as a kid,
27:20
like oh, I was wanted one and I remember like,
27:23
oh, I'm going to buy the RC car and I'm over
27:25
here like you know 20 year old playing with the RC making
27:31
that's awesome. But yeah,
27:32
I know, that job paid pretty good.
27:34
I don't know if they still have that,
27:36
but I mean, it was like OG TaskRabbit,
27:37
because TaskRabbit, but it's an actual company,
27:41
yeah, we'll dispatch,
27:45
It's funny. My first job I was saying earlier was,
27:48
I used to make ringtones,
27:49
ringtones, ringtones. I was like,
27:55
the next, next toes were in.
27:57
I don't know if you remember the next toe boots.
27:58
Oh, so I learned how to cut.
28:02
The song's up and I would be like,
28:03
Yo, what part of the song you want?
28:05
That was what separated me from everybody.
28:07
you want the chorus of Gasolina or you want the rapping part
28:11
You tell me the time stamps and I'll cut it for
28:13
you, bro. I ran it up so much.
28:15
Like my dad got scared.
28:17
you're not doing this no more,
28:19
because Tenamorabu Liro and you're gonna leave school.
28:21
I'm 13. Like you're 13.
28:23
This is a summer job,
28:24
I'm not asking you for money for pizza no more,
28:26
right? Like, is that shit fucking with you right now
28:29
Like I'm not leaning on you.
28:30
Or how did you even find this?
28:33
I, I, I used to drive me crazy because I
28:35
didn't like the ringtones that they had,
28:36
and it used to be like,
28:37
I don't want that part of the song.
28:39
I want, so you made your own.
28:41
I literally sat there and read how to make the ringtone,
28:45
and I bought the cable,
28:46
and this is like old school fucking internet.
28:49
Steve Jobs over here,
28:50
bro, like with glasses.
28:51
He was need glasses,
28:52
but he was, I I remember I was like,
28:53
Yo, Dad, put this sign up right here.
28:55
So 3 ringtones for 15.
28:58
And let me open up shop.
28:59
Wait, OK, so you were at a cell phone store
29:02
so my dad had a travel agency and in front of the
29:04
he rented out the front half of the travel agency to
29:07
a, to a kid that had a cell phone store,
29:09
and that's the kid that pulled me on to everything,
29:12
and I was like he was older than me,
29:14
I'm, I, I know how to make the ringtones,
29:16
bro. Like I could pick the.
29:18
That makes sense. OK,
29:19
I thought like at first I thought you were just like going
29:23
no. I had a storefront.
29:25
Everybody that came in to get their phone fixed or whatever.
29:28
The, the kid would be like,
29:29
Yo, some more ringtones.
29:30
Like that's check him out.
29:34
Oh, what part of the song you want like.
29:38
That needed respect, yo,
29:39
I had to get it out the mud,
29:41
man. Do you get your W-2s at the end of the
29:42
year and shit? It was all cash.
29:46
But then it was crazy because,
29:47
you know, ringtones became like,
29:49
you know, that shit only had like a 34 year run
29:53
The phones got smarter and people just,
29:54
you don't have a ring,
29:55
it's on vibrate. You don't have a ringtone no more.
29:58
That shit is that era is gone.
30:02
the ice cream truck for my wife.
30:06
Should we bring rings back,
30:10
My suegra has like the dog barking from the Apple one.
30:15
your mom's here. I'm just like,
30:17
What is this? I mean,
30:19
I don't, I don't fuck with it,
30:20
but sometimes I feel like a little boomer and go on non-vibrate
30:23
when I have my watch.
30:24
But honestly, that's how I learned a lot of songs because
30:26
a lot of older people will come and be like,
30:30
or give me this bachata.
30:32
They're just like I'm on LimeWire.
30:35
I'm on LimeWire giving my dad's computer said Limewire,
30:38
giving my dad's computer AIDS and all these type of viruses,
30:42
all right, I'm gonna try to find a song for you
30:46
LimeWire. I remember I had an AOL dial up trying to
30:48
do LimeWire, but that was like 10 minutes for a song
30:51
Yeah dude, not only that,
30:52
if it messed up the song,
30:54
sometimes you'd be, you'd hear the freaking days downloading and I'm
30:57
like, Diablo, I just wasted Do Dia downloading the song
31:01
and it's Bill Clinton cursing.
31:02
Yeah, like, I don't know how sexual relations with that
31:04
It's like, what is this?
31:06
you know, it's like,
31:08
oh man, crazy times.
31:10
So you guys from the,
31:11
was it AOL messenger.
31:13
Oh yeah, I used to run.
31:14
I used to run home and,
31:17
and my mom, you know,
31:18
you picked up the phone,
31:19
it would crash, the dial up.
31:22
that's right. So it was very like I had a little
31:23
young people don't know the struggle.
31:25
I had a little window from like 4 to 5 before mommy
31:28
came home to just download,
31:30
just do whatever, talk to the same people I was talking
31:35
I remember my wife can say bad words.
31:37
I can curse you out,
31:39
You remember your screen name,
31:43
I had, I was Elechero 227.
31:46
What the fuck? I was Elechero 227.
31:48
227 is my street name.
31:50
And then after like junior year I switched it up.
31:53
That was when I had the psychic.
31:56
It's better than mine.
31:58
Well, once I met my girl,
31:59
I was like, Asians are amazing.
32:04
Like 10, like maybe it's for you.
32:07
It's just like, bro,
32:09
Well, you see that you can change your Gmail though recently
32:13
Gmail is like there is a whole new feature where you
32:15
can change your emails,
32:16
like if you do have like these cringy ass like emails,
32:22
I don't know about that part.
32:23
I would assume it's like,
32:25
that's crazy. I have,
32:33
I think it's that time,
32:38
there's a uniform. There's a,
32:41
a uniform. There's a UFO above us.
32:43
they're most likely gonna beam you up,
32:45
brother, but if you tell them why you deserve to stay
32:47
on the planet, they'll let you stay.
32:49
I'll see you guys later.
32:49
Bye. You got 30 seconds,
32:55
I don't know. I think I wanna go.
32:59
It was fun with you guys,
33:00
but I think I wanna go explore the universe.
33:05
First of all, do you believe in aliens?
33:07
You know what? I think it would be crazy of us
33:10
to think that we are the only living life form in this
33:13
universe, right? Like,
33:15
I don't know what aliens look like.
33:16
I don't know, you know,
33:17
but there's got to be some other type of life on some
33:20
other planet that we don't even know.
33:22
That's what I'd be telling people.
33:25
It's too big. It's too big to say we are the
33:29
no, I think there's something out there,
33:31
something beyond us. So if an alien pulls up,
33:33
you'll tell them. I'm out with you.
33:37
It's chopped. It's chopped on this planet.
33:39
Can I take the kids and the family with me,
33:43
can the truck come with me?
33:46
I'm, we're limited on time here.
33:51
That's true. It's crazy.
33:53
Global warming, bro.
33:54
It wasn't 9 degrees like last week,
33:55
bro. I just hope it happens in my lifetime so I
33:58
could be like told you so to my parents.
34:03
The ringtone kid was on to something,
34:08
Do you get suckered into the UFO conspiracies and videos
34:13
especially with AI now.
34:15
I can't share this with AI.
34:16
I'm gonna sound crazy,
34:17
but for sure, like some of them,
34:19
like with the, with the things happening in the sky,
34:23
I get caught up in that little,
34:24
that little rabbit hole,
34:25
paranormal, paranormal, the paranormal stuff,
34:27
yeah, bro, paranormal,
34:29
more paranormal than UFO because paranormal,
34:33
Uno secrie una casa condio and el diablo and all this other
34:37
bullshit and I'm like I'm already programmed to be a pendejo yeah
34:44
I don't know. It feels like it was.
34:46
I mean, I saw the Annabelle doll.
34:47
I went to the museum,
34:48
but that for some reason didn't spook me as much.
34:51
being alone and the freaking light flickered or something,
34:54
I'm like, Annabelle,
34:55
is that you? Did she follow me home?
34:58
No, I had one time we used to grow up in
35:01
Compton. Well, I grew up in Compton,
35:02
right, in that house.
35:03
We had one bathroom,
35:04
but it was a bunch of us living there.
35:05
It was like 13 of us.
35:07
And so when you Go to the bathroom,
35:09
you had to take your toilet paper.
35:10
So everybody had their own toilet paper.
35:12
And so I walked in and I didn't have my toilet paper
35:15
and I was about to turn around to go back and get
35:18
the toilet paper. And our lock had a clank sound.
35:21
So that's how we knew people got out of the bathroom because
35:23
you heard the clank.
35:25
Yeah, yeah. And so I walked in,
35:27
I had locked the door.
35:28
I turned around and I was like,
35:29
Oh shit, I got to back out.
35:30
I turned around and I heard the clank and I hadn't fully
35:33
turned around, so I was in the bathroom by myself and
35:37
And then I felt a hand on my back like grab me
35:41
and I froze. I froze and I was like And then
35:44
I turned around and there was nobody there.
35:46
The door was unlocked.
35:47
I walked out and I was like,
35:47
What the hell just happened?
35:52
it was early. It was like maybe like 6 in the
35:53
morning and my little cousin was walking out.
35:56
6 a.m. is. Demon time's up and you're still out here
36:04
Yeah, ever since then I was like,
36:05
Oh shoot, I don't know.
36:07
I don't. There's no with that shit.
36:12
I will scream. I will run.
36:14
I always say if it happens,
36:16
aliens, what would you do?
36:19
Do you freeze? Do you take a moment?
36:20
Do you realize, Oh shoot,
36:23
But at least you see it.
36:24
But this thing, it's like,
36:25
Yeah, yeah, you don't see it.
