Speaker 1: to one. Yeah, yeah, But I spread the time because
Speaker 1: you know, like I say in the book, help us
Speaker 1: on the way you need to help. I found a way. Well,
Speaker 1: God gave me a way to the way my life
Speaker 1: set up. With social media. I'm able to film at home,
Speaker 1: so I'm able to make my money at home. So
Speaker 1: like my son, I got him an AU team. I
Speaker 1: took up all July. I ain't doing no shows. My
Speaker 1: daughter I got to go to her dance in June.
Speaker 1: But the way I make my money is always away
Speaker 1: for everybody. You know, my way was I don't got
Speaker 1: to be on the road or gone all the time.
Speaker 1: I make my money at my house, Like I feel,
Speaker 1: all my skits at my house, so you know, I'm
Speaker 1: able to be home a lot. So that that's how
Speaker 1: I balance it. I thank God for that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: so that YouTube, all the social media outlets, Oh for me,
Speaker 1: its Facebook.
Speaker 5: That's what I heard.
Speaker 2: I heard face Facebook.
Speaker 1: You know they got that audience that you know, got
Speaker 1: their social scurity chicks and all that.
Speaker 5: It is true. It's like an older audience.
Speaker 2: Yea audience.
Speaker 1: You know it's man they watch yeah, you know, they
Speaker 1: sitting home and they're chilling.
Speaker 2: So it's like they it's the aunt tease. So they
Speaker 2: got that. They going to see new addition.
Speaker 1: Concerts, fast taste it on concerts, so that fan base.
Speaker 1: So they got the money and but you two got
Speaker 1: the cloud. But it's money over there too. Yeah, you
Speaker 1: know I made money on both. But Facebook always been
Speaker 1: my go to.
Speaker 6: What made you want to go from comedian the memoir writer?
Speaker 6: How do you know you had a story to tell?
Speaker 1: Because man, the things I used to read books when
Speaker 1: I was in the streets. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: Becoming Mellionaire God's way, Uh, you know forty Laws of
Speaker 1: Power Artists seduction. Was reading these books and uh, that's
Speaker 1: how you did it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, all the seduction, right, I love Rob Green.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, So you know I felt like, man, I
Speaker 1: know my story worked because I've used it even in
Speaker 1: the streets. But I used when I used to go
Speaker 1: to banks with a five hundred credit score, I knew
Speaker 1: how to get that bank loan. You know, just these
Speaker 1: things and lessons. I just knew just from instincts. It
Speaker 1: worked for me even in the Comingy game when I
Speaker 1: first because I was one of the I was the
Speaker 1: first social media guy they let go in the clubs
Speaker 1: and get them deals. They wasn't letting us get the
Speaker 1: weekend deals, but I knew how to get in.
Speaker 2: It's just like so everything.
Speaker 4: It was the OG comedians like Gary Blocking, y'all.
Speaker 1: Oh no, they was getting the deals, but they didn't
Speaker 1: trust so social media people because first of all, it
Speaker 1: was like, you know, we ain't paid our dues, and
Speaker 1: I understand where they were coming from, and we ain't
Speaker 1: learned the game yet. You know a lot of us
Speaker 1: ain't even have a set yet. So but I knew
Speaker 1: how to maneuver everything. And I was like man, and
Speaker 1: I talked people around me and it was working for them.
Speaker 1: So I was like, the world need to fill my
Speaker 1: game of how this don't work for me.
Speaker 2: Since kindergarten, Gary.
Speaker 4: Had the perception of the social media comedian changed.
Speaker 5: See.
Speaker 3: I don't like the whole paying your dues because then
Speaker 3: you're saying, how dare you try to make a living?
Speaker 3: That's how I look at it, like, just because they're
Speaker 3: the way they can be famous is different. It's better
Speaker 3: nowadays because when I started in the late nineties, we
Speaker 3: were at the mercy of the quote unquote machine. We
Speaker 3: had to help a producer from Comedy Central or a
Speaker 3: network put our stuff on there. These guys now they
Speaker 3: create their own fan base. They're creating their own lanes,
Speaker 3: So how can you be mad at it? I'm more like,
Speaker 3: learn from it, because at first I was like, so what,
Speaker 3: You're the first person I heard say you can make
Speaker 3: money off Facebook.
Speaker 5: I was like this, Oh, so let me bleep out
Speaker 5: the curse words.
Speaker 3: I'm not a sketch guy. I'm just not wired like that.
Speaker 3: But I own all my content, So for me to
Speaker 3: put stand up on there, I was like, oh, be clean.
Speaker 5: He's right.
Speaker 3: He did Basically he did what Tyler Perry did with
Speaker 3: the movies, because when TOPD the movies come out, they
Speaker 3: didn't they didn't account for those black, over thirty church
Speaker 3: going women that took the buses to the theater go
Speaker 3: see his movie. It's basically he's doing with social media,
Speaker 3: is what he's saying. Like he's he's taking into account
Speaker 3: that audience. So I'm not mad at it.
Speaker 4: You ain't got no choice.
Speaker 5: Well, it's enough for everybody one laying y'all down. I
Speaker 5: can be mad at it. I can be frustrating. You
Speaker 5: can't tell you in the feel talking about now.
Speaker 1: Gary always showed little I ain't gonna lie man, Me
Speaker 1: and Gey. It was a couple of them out there,
Speaker 1: but I was I didn't care. I was one of
Speaker 1: the ones. I was waiting for somebody to try me because,
Speaker 1: like I like Gary say, bro, we come on, man,
Speaker 1: we we come from it.
Speaker 2: Most of us. You know what I'm saying, black, no
Speaker 2: dispect gear. But you one of us. You know what
Speaker 2: I mean, but disrespect.
Speaker 4: We come from the bottom.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're making a living. I'm not.
Speaker 1: It was the population of your town growing up, man,
Speaker 1: like three thousand. Mine was seven thousand, so I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: somebody do Comedian Steve Brown called me. He was one
Speaker 1: of the ones I first started. Everybody had a problem
Speaker 1: with I called on the phone. Really don't play with
Speaker 1: me like that, Like, I don't play like that.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: We all trying to make a living, so I would
Speaker 1: have a problem with you that they box you out
Speaker 1: with You can't nah man, like they all online to
Speaker 1: my social media people, Man, it's an art man.
Speaker 2: Don't you messing with people money? It's people. I don't
Speaker 2: think good.
Speaker 1: But I'm never feeling get online and say nothing about
Speaker 1: no artists because I'm missing you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: That ain't my lane because some people eating and people
Speaker 1: got to feed kids and coming from the streets.
Speaker 2: You respect that.
Speaker 1: I at least I ain't selling dope. And I was
Speaker 1: selling dope the whole time. So I went from the stage,
Speaker 1: I mean, selling dope on the stage, and this day
Speaker 1: I wouldn't.
Speaker 2: I'm like, man, don't play I don't. So many people
Speaker 2: you had to call like you might be cool now
Speaker 2: that you have to call him, be like, hey, Steve Brown.
Speaker 1: Steve Brown was Steve Brown was one of them. I
Speaker 1: called him to call somebody else you're.
Speaker 2: You about to go somebody now still to this day,
Speaker 2: nah Nah.
Speaker 1: It was like a couple of years ago. I was
Speaker 1: about to call somebody else. I was looking for his number,
Speaker 1: but another comedian, d Ray gave. He said, Wayne, I'm
Speaker 1: not feelinga let you do that. I called every comedian
Speaker 1: trying to get this certain comedian number, or Dray stopped
Speaker 1: you from doing. He' stopping from doing You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, it's the problem. How do you try to
Speaker 1: hate without saying his name?
Speaker 7: Nah?
Speaker 2: Because he was online he was.
Speaker 1: Like this when I was doing the skits on during
Speaker 1: the pandemic on Instagram and he was like, somebody said
Speaker 1: this certain comedian it's funny, and I blocked them. They
Speaker 1: say my skits are funny, say man, cause he put
Speaker 1: out quantity not quality. Ain't nobody dropping skits with Country Wayne.
Speaker 1: So he was like, I hope you ain't talking about
Speaker 1: Dasie Banks and Country Wayne. And then he was like, no,
Speaker 1: Deasic Bank's cool. I'm like, hold up, so I'm trying
Speaker 1: to call it broy Don't you ever just because I
Speaker 1: don't figure it out.
Speaker 2: And don't don't do that. Just asked me how to
Speaker 2: do it. You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I mean that just means somebody he knows said you
Speaker 1: was funny girl, if you.
Speaker 5: Got the pin. I'm cool with that.
Speaker 1: I respect him more for people to say it my name.
Speaker 1: I don't like all the side stuff. Because you've got
Speaker 1: something to say, I respect it, But like, come on, man,
Speaker 1: I don't play with nobody. People got to feed their
Speaker 1: family and and I don't think a lot of people
Speaker 1: good in comedy, you know.
Speaker 3: I think a lot of it comes from just being
Speaker 3: the o G here is when they original Gary. When
Speaker 3: guys are doing it like for a long time and
Speaker 3: just having broken over that threshold of selling a good
Speaker 3: amount of tickets, I think a lot of it they
Speaker 3: get frustrated because now you got the younger guys, the
Speaker 3: social media guys, and they're selling more tickets to them.
Speaker 3: That's really what it comes down to. It's they're frustratings.
Speaker 3: I guarantee whoever was upset with you is not selling
Speaker 3: as many tickets as you because you're never upset.
Speaker 5: When you selling tickets, you ain't worry about nobody. That's
Speaker 5: the truth.
Speaker 3: And let me tell you something. You're getting this long
Speaker 3: game long enough. There's enough for everybody. Yes, you mean
Speaker 3: the same city as somebody. You're both selling tickets.
Speaker 5: Why be upset?
Speaker 2: Now?
Speaker 1: What did the first comedian said when you reached out
Speaker 1: to him? Did he understand and maybe he was just
Speaker 1: mad for something he didn't understand? Or did he keep
Speaker 1: going with it?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 1: No, I went to I went to the city and
Speaker 1: did the show and people came to see me and
Speaker 1: they were like, no, way, ain't funny. And then he
Speaker 1: was like, oh uh. He was like, yeah, man, I
Speaker 1: ain't had never seen you. So I just was like, well,
Speaker 1: don't don't judge me off everybody else because I came
Speaker 1: in with a store. You know, I was, I had
Speaker 1: already lived, so comedy came pretty fast for me because
Speaker 1: I had a lot to talk about. So they it
Speaker 1: would just put me with the a lot of other people,
Speaker 1: but don't put me with that.
Speaker 2: Man. Come see me for yourself.
Speaker 4: A lot of that is just jealousy in it. Yeah, man,
Speaker 4: that's literally.
Speaker 5: All it is.
Speaker 1: But man, I just feel like, man, you know, when
Speaker 1: nobody got time, nobody ain't got time for that. By
Speaker 1: all the OG's who who like Gary, who was already
Speaker 1: doing their thing, and Kevin Hart said, you entertainer. Everybody
Speaker 1: was showing love, but it was the ones that quite
Speaker 1: ain't been in the game a long time. And that's
Speaker 1: your fault because, like you said, if you're not selling tickets,
Speaker 1: you feel away. Because he felt like, yeah, I've been
Speaker 1: working for fifteen years and handcome country. Ain't it looks
Speaker 1: like he just did two skits and he sold out.
Speaker 1: You can't be playing with it game. It's come to
Speaker 1: in a lot of social media. People ain't gonna be
Speaker 1: there the end. But if you've been in there fifteen
Speaker 1: years and you ain't figured out something, it because you ain't.
Speaker 2: You've been you've been playing. It's part of it.
Speaker 1: Anything you do for fifteen years, it's gonna be what
Speaker 1: you did behind closed doors. Like they can hate on
Speaker 1: Kevin Hart all they want, but I tell everybody they
Speaker 1: be like Kevin Hart and their funny.
Speaker 2: I'm like, bro, everybody got to be real.
Speaker 1: That specially he dropped with all right, alright, alright, the
Speaker 1: way about Baker account set up. Everybody know that was
Speaker 1: one of the best classes in the last ten years.
Speaker 2: Everybody tried to know that special.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, bro, like somebody who get that far,
Speaker 1: it's something they doing behind closed doors, and it's work.
Speaker 4: Not even closed doors.
Speaker 6: It's something that he's doing on that on that stage
Speaker 6: that you may not connect with tens of millions everybody
Speaker 6: connected with that special.
Speaker 1: I don't know how they forget everybody remember that special.
Speaker 1: I was in the streets and I remember, Yeah, I remember.

Speaker 2: For the last night?
Speaker 1: She was like yes, because they was all cat wing people,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? She was like, no, that
Speaker 1: was They weren't even fans Kevin Heart, But that's special.
Speaker 2: Change the game.
Speaker 4: Wait until you see the next one.
Speaker 2: And Kep never changed.
Speaker 4: That's the next with CAV.
Speaker 2: He never changed. Kevin has always He's been the same
Speaker 2: keV when we first met him. I think Kevin know
Speaker 2: that too.
Speaker 1: When people say he ain't funny, I think he's so
Speaker 1: smart for me and him when I talked to him.
Speaker 1: People don't know how intelligence he is to get that
Speaker 1: far as in intelligence.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, he's so smart. He let people say that.
Speaker 1: But that special was it was the relatable material of
Speaker 1: you know, the way my bank set up his daddy
Speaker 1: going through the spelling deed. But that's the kind of
Speaker 1: stuff that works. No disrespect, but good song right still
Speaker 1: saying that now we still man, come on, man, number
Speaker 1: numbers of hating.
Speaker 4: Gary Kevin funny. What he's smart?
Speaker 5: I'm just listening, bro. He not Granted, I didn't think
Speaker 5: it was that good. He's put a little on it.
Speaker 3: I ain't saying nothing like that.
Speaker 5: To me, not all of them.

Speaker 1: it's country way built for a relationship.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm definitely built for relationship.
Speaker 4: How many at one time?
Speaker 1: I don't really built for a monogamous relationship, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? It's just that, you know, I don't
Speaker 1: work on myself enough. I tell the woman got.
Speaker 2: To be ready.
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, because a lot of men,
Speaker 1: a lot of women think they're in a position, and
Speaker 1: I understand where they're coming from. But men work, certain
Speaker 1: men that work on themselfs too, and it's certain women.
Speaker 1: I just it got to be a certain woman who
Speaker 1: don't want the world, because I never I don't care
Speaker 1: about the world. So if we care about us, I'm
Speaker 1: ready to be in a relationship. And I've been in
Speaker 1: relationships all my life.
Speaker 5: Just confused me.
Speaker 2: This is my first time. It's my confusion. That's what
Speaker 2: the player. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: I think right now.
Speaker 1: The world but you so basically it's like, that's what
Speaker 1: keep thirty five now? So I want a relationship, Well,
Speaker 1: me and her, I don't care about nothing outside of
Speaker 1: this house, what people, what the world got going on?
Speaker 1: Care about you know us, and we go in the
Speaker 1: world and have our fun. But it's like, you know,
Speaker 1: I want that kind of relationship.
Speaker 2: But that's hard. That's hard nowadays.
Speaker 6: I'm telling you, right now, there's women listening to this
Speaker 6: saying I don't want to hear this from the thirty five.
Speaker 4: Year old with ten kids.
Speaker 2: I feel I feel them, But you know, I had
Speaker 2: all the experience. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: If a doctor, if a doctor working on me, I
Speaker 1: want a doctor to have experience. You know, your country,
Speaker 1: Country said said, Yo, you know, I just want to
Speaker 1: make sure what happens is in this. Don't be listening
Speaker 1: to what going on in social media. What's going on
Speaker 1: in this outside.
Speaker 4: We're trying to keep them confusing.
Speaker 2: You're confused.
Speaker 5: I just won't.
Speaker 2: Hey, man, you know how it is. Man, everybody The.
Speaker 5: Answer was, no, I'm ready.
Speaker 2: I want. I love relationship. Relationships are made.
Speaker 4: You know you love relationships. That's obvious.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I love that you committed one with because
Speaker 1: you get more. You get more out of that relationship.
Speaker 1: Where you when that woman feel like you committed and
Speaker 1: you committed to her.
Speaker 6: I don't believe you, Country, Yeah, you gotta show you
Speaker 6: got to prove it. I've been in relationships, man, you
Speaker 6: know that it didn't work. I left, Oh you, nobody
Speaker 6: ever left me?
Speaker 4: So what's the reason for you?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: I said, I let her say that because I you know,
Speaker 1: I'm talking. I'm gonna let people.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean.
Speaker 1: She got a brand, but no, I ain't. I never
Speaker 1: got left in my life, So.
Speaker 2: Why why do you leave them? Like, what's the always
Speaker 2: the problem? Most of the.
Speaker 1: Time, I'm ready to elevate, feeling it's like you're gonna
Speaker 1: go on this journey with me because it's the.
Speaker 2: World, you know what I mean. I'm not.
Speaker 1: I don't really care about the world. You know what's
Speaker 1: going on out there. I walk my own lane. Is
Speaker 1: like most people. You can feel it. It's like I
Speaker 1: want to keep elevating and keep spiritually working on myself
Speaker 1: and the person don't want to go with me. I
Speaker 1: got to keep going, man. I just that's what I
Speaker 1: just find my malager, you know what I mean. I've
Speaker 1: done that with everything because to get the certain I
Speaker 1: got kids, to get certain things.
Speaker 2: Man, you can't the people behind you in the corner
Speaker 2: right there looking like because it was just.
Speaker 1: You know, I ain't nothing to talk about on here,
Speaker 1: but it wasn't working out. Yeah, just if I'm trying
Speaker 1: to and every time I hey, either you coming with me,
Speaker 1: the people who with me still with me.
Speaker 2: But I've got to do this for my kid.
Speaker 1: And I ain't gonna do nothing wrong or or nothing
Speaker 1: like you know, devilish to make that happen. I like
Speaker 1: to get money the right way. So it's like, man,
Speaker 1: I know when it's time to leave me.
Speaker 2: That's the hardest thing to do. Even in business. It's
Speaker 2: hard to be like, this ain't working and I got
Speaker 2: to elevate. So either you come with me.
Speaker 1: Uh, you know, if I'm doing if I'm doing it,
Speaker 1: if I'm doing the podcast or radio show, and I
Speaker 1: talked to NBA and Charlot Magne, I'm listening one hundred percent,
Speaker 1: I'm going wherever y'all taking me, because y'all are professionals
Speaker 1: at this. So if I'm proven in my world where
Speaker 1: I come from, like in my book, you know my story,
Speaker 1: I'm like, when I'm in a relationship, I'm like, man,
Speaker 1: unless you got a better route, man.
Speaker 4: I gotta go just basically the manage it didn't have
Speaker 4: a better route.
Speaker 1: Nah, nah no, And every relationship head. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying. You know I'm gonna keep rising.
Speaker 4: Another thing you're doing I did that.
Speaker 6: I love is you got a movie out on Amazon
Speaker 6: Prime SCREENE love that you funded yourself.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think that's a great route to go.
Speaker 6: But talk to the people while you went that route
Speaker 6: instead of getting the studio to produce.
Speaker 2: It, because it ain't make sense.
Speaker 1: I see everybody's pitching stuff, and I'm like, if everybody
Speaker 1: got millions of dollars and we got the resource of
Speaker 1: leguas shot yourself. Yeah, so I did it myself just
Speaker 1: to see and it went up. You know what I'm
Speaker 1: saying that the money came back and you know you
Speaker 1: own it. It's like digital real estate. You know, when
Speaker 1: I own the house, I still got to fix that roof.
Speaker 1: I got to get an.
Speaker 2: Ac you know. I don't flip houses.
Speaker 1: I'm like, dig's a real estate. It's sit on there.
Speaker 1: I ain't got to worry about no.
Speaker 2: Tenants tearing it up. Like man, if we own this content.
Speaker 1: Because I seen what I did with the social media
Speaker 1: a little skits and I'm like, oh loo, bro, I
Speaker 1: did this with three minutes skis. So I'm like, that's
Speaker 1: how people have been making the money. If you own that,
Speaker 1: if you own that movie, bro, if you own ten,
Speaker 1: if you own ten movies, if you spend ten million
Speaker 1: dollars shoot ten movies, you know what I'm saying, million
Speaker 1: dollars piece, you owned ten.
Speaker 2: If the movie's on Amazon, Prime of tub.
Speaker 1: Making three thousand dollars a day apiece, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, you making thirty thousand dollars a day for
Speaker 1: the rest of your life and then sometimes it might spike.
Speaker 2: Up, you know.
Speaker 1: But it's that, it's that when you got you, when
Speaker 1: you bitch your own brand and you already got to
Speaker 1: it was like you got to moneytize off yourself first
Speaker 1: and let the game moneytize whatever left, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean.
Speaker 2: And I've seen it, and I just.
Speaker 1: Had to do it because everybody like, pitch this, then
Speaker 1: you pitch something, you wait two years.
Speaker 2: I'm getting older in real life.
Speaker 4: That's right, That's right.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, oh, nah, no, I got I got
Speaker 1: this money right now. They're gonna tax it right in
Speaker 1: the end of the year. Anyway, let me have a question,
Speaker 1: because information is important. You don't got to put the
Speaker 1: number out there. How much did you spend on the movie?
Speaker 1: Spend by the mini?
Speaker 4: Okay? Okay? And you got that back already.
Speaker 2: Pretty much, you know what I'm saying. Pretty much? It's
Speaker 2: been out how long it's only been out three months? Man?
Speaker 1: They making money every day, but Amazon get half of

Speaker 2: He was up was up here.
Speaker 1: He was like, man, he's the leader of the new school.
Speaker 1: I tell her, I say, well, I must about being
Speaker 1: your class. Then you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: I want new ones.
Speaker 1: But it's all little got you. But no, man, that's
Speaker 1: that's stand up special. That's what I've been waiting on
Speaker 1: because really that's what I was working on. That's why
Speaker 1: I wasn't on social media anymore. No, I was on
Speaker 1: the road every weekend, every weekend for years.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, on.
Speaker 5: The road writing new material.
Speaker 4: He was rooting for you, telling her about the Netflix special.
Speaker 1: Question.
Speaker 5: Hope we skip over that. Let's get back to you
Speaker 5: and Jess.
Speaker 7: What happened there? You broke up with her, but you
Speaker 7: learned riding with it? What did your book me pictures?
Speaker 7: I want to take a picture special on there.
Speaker 3: You released the book too earlier, man, Well, but I'm
Speaker 3: happy for you.
Speaker 5: I hope it's top ten.
Speaker 1: You got to help us on the way comedy tour, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: help his own way coming into it. Man, we're on
Speaker 1: tour right now. It is in May, but you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: so the tour going great. You know you had to
Speaker 1: step by by myself in theaters. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: That was a challenge, is it?
Speaker 3: Let me ask you this because a lot of people know
Speaker 3: this behind the scenes stuff. You can generate so much
Speaker 3: money in comedy clubs and then your reps call you
Speaker 3: and say, hey, we're going to transition into theaters. It
Speaker 3: actually is a financial hit. I don't know if that
Speaker 3: was the case for you when you first go from
Speaker 3: clubs to theaters, because some markets, you.
Speaker 5: Know, DC, Baltimore, Houston, Dallas.
Speaker 3: I mean you you can walk out there with a
Speaker 3: ton of money out the clubs the theaters. You gotta
Speaker 3: work one night, but you don't generate in this slare
Speaker 3: as much money you did you find that when you
Speaker 3: went to theaters.
Speaker 1: Now you really, uh, it kind of just translates, just
Speaker 1: translated one night if you selling, if you selling little tickets,
Speaker 1: like you know, you know what we're talking. Numb was like,
Speaker 1: might go to Dallas, you go to club, you might
Speaker 1: hear a love, might hear a seventies you know what
Speaker 1: I mean?
Speaker 2: Saventy piece. I don't know why I whispering, but say
Speaker 2: I go to Dalla.
Speaker 1: If I go to Comby Club, I'm gonna pick up
Speaker 1: sixty sixty grands, I do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2: Sixty seventh grand? But I went to Dallas. You know
Speaker 2: I picked up one hundred. So it works. Really to
Speaker 2: come to the theater is really more money.
Speaker 1: But it's a risk because if you don't sell a
Speaker 1: certain oount of ticket, now you in you in the
Speaker 1: hole because some markets you might go Now, I might
Speaker 1: take it. I might go to Greenville. I could have
Speaker 1: went the come to club and picked up UH fifty
Speaker 1: and I went. I walked out of Greenville with thirty eight.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: So it varies whichever market, but the theater is overall
Speaker 1: is more money, more time because you get that tour
Speaker 1: over with in May, then I could finally go home
Speaker 1: to my family. When I was in club man, I
Speaker 1: couldn't even do that. I couldn't. I couldn't do nothing.
Speaker 1: What was your toughest market, The toughest market to my
Speaker 1: like selling tickets wise? Oh like like Denver only soul,
Speaker 1: like fifteen hundred tickets.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I bet you sold out in Denver, Hungary crushing, Yes,
Speaker 6: places like Denver.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 5: Gosh, not different tough market.
Speaker 2: I was gonna ask you, you know, out of your skits.
Speaker 2: I got two questions. What was the big skit.
Speaker 1: That made you pop, that made people realize that went
Speaker 1: viral and too?
Speaker 2: What was the hardest kit to do it?
Speaker 1: Because sometimes you do it with different artist celebrities, What
Speaker 1: was the hardest one.
Speaker 4: To do with the celebrity.
Speaker 1: Uh, let me see the first the skit that popped
Speaker 1: me off when I did have the fake like I
Speaker 1: like a girlfriend's cooking. I only got like two thousand off.
Speaker 1: But but that was the one that made me go viral.
Speaker 1: And the hardest one to do probably was let me
Speaker 1: see it was it was a t I let me
Speaker 1: see a T I boost probably Bootsy. It was kind
Speaker 1: of hard because I went, I made it to his
Speaker 1: before he made it up, Like so he was waiting
Speaker 1: on Bootsy.
Speaker 5: At his own house.
Speaker 1: At his own house, I seen everybody but Boosy. I've
Speaker 1: seen his cousins and his homeboy, and I don't know
Speaker 1: what Boots at. But TI I we was in the hood.
Speaker 1: So that was pretty hard because like we need, we
Speaker 1: need to hurry up. He was late and we in
Speaker 1: the real hood because I did on both of my
Speaker 1: character drill so do two. It probably the hardest to
Speaker 1: do with a celebrity. Uh, but t I probably because
Speaker 1: the bibe me we was in at the time.
Speaker 6: I mean, I listen, man, I just love to see
Speaker 6: where you come from from social media, having a book out,
Speaker 6: having your own movie on Amazon, Netflix, special education, Like
Speaker 6: that's just I mean, that's that's that's been because ten
Speaker 6: years ago people was like, ah, man, that ain't gonna
Speaker 6: those guys on the end of that ain't gonna be
Speaker 6: doing nothing, so they're not gonna be around to watch
Speaker 6: like you and Jess and DC and everything.
Speaker 4: Y'all doing that shit is incredible.
Speaker 2: Man, absolutely, Yeah.
Speaker 3: You know what I like about the new generation guys
Speaker 3: is they they work together.
Speaker 2: A lot with the sketches and everything else.
Speaker 5: Cause you partner with a bunch of people, sketches, you just.
Speaker 4: They'll do stuff together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Ja Cool, Me and Jess ain't never you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, We ain't never.
Speaker 1: I think just respect that. I don't never get on
Speaker 1: here and talk negative about it. I let her talk
Speaker 1: negative about me because that a woman. A woman gonna
Speaker 1: do that. Really, yeah, a woman gonna do that.
Speaker 2: Not not negative, but you have experienced that Gary.
Speaker 5: Narrative.
Speaker 1: But no man as a woman, man, I don't respect
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So me and just Cool
Speaker 1: I think she just respected that. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: I ain't.
Speaker 2: I'm not.
Speaker 1: I'm never going to get on here and say nothing
Speaker 1: about no woman period in the negative. Man would you ever,
Speaker 1: let like a comedian, older comedian open up for you
Speaker 1: something like that. Yeah, they cool that, like if they
Speaker 1: don't have a Netflix special, no bro and man, when
Speaker 1: people think no Netflix, Gary getting.
Speaker 4: Crazy, man, let's get right.
Speaker 5: That's the legend, Gary d gared Man.
Speaker 1: You know, gart the only one that go out there
Speaker 1: new material.
Speaker 2: A lot of people don't do that.
Speaker 1: Geary come out there and give them new jokes, especially
Speaker 1: after specially and just then.
Speaker 2: You know, Gary is a legend for us.
Speaker 5: For notice ing that.
Speaker 3: Wayne, I wish somebody on Netflix would notice somebody.
Speaker 5: Really want that.
Speaker 4: You really want a Netflix But what what does that do?
Speaker 5: Well? I don't know. I just never had one. I
Speaker 5: don't know what it would do, Charlamagne, what do you
Speaker 5: mean what would it do? I don't know? Because I
Speaker 5: get told Gary.
Speaker 1: Really needed I think Internet us from the Internet needed
Speaker 1: more because nobody don't know whether.
Speaker 2: We're funny or not. Less the people can't to see us.
Speaker 1: So it's like that's our like audition to the world
Speaker 1: because we got our fan base. But now you got
Speaker 1: to see the world, get to see and if you
Speaker 1: pop on Netflix, man, you finally get absolutely that thing
Speaker 1: or that you know that stand.
Speaker 6: Up and you might bring in a whole new audience
Speaker 6: because it's people that go on Netflix just to see
Speaker 6: who's doing new stand ups, like who's this country?
Speaker 4: Exactly?
Speaker 3: For me, I think Netflix will probably helped the international market.
Speaker 5: Mm right now, I'm pretty.
Speaker 3: Much I'm doing really great in the United States. But
Speaker 3: just I see the guys going overseas, I'm like, that's Netflix.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Wayne, Oh no, no, I went. I don't think
Speaker 1: I've never been out of country in my life.
Speaker 2: I went.
Speaker 1: I went to film the TV show with Lisa Koudro
Speaker 1: and Takaway t T excuse me and.
Speaker 5: That last name, Like we're just gonna let that slide. Huh.
Speaker 5: You know, question who that is? Who the hell is talk? What? T?
Speaker 5: Does he have a Netflix special?
Speaker 2: Talk about like the biggest running the game right now?
Speaker 2: He did?
Speaker 5: Oh my fault myself?
Speaker 2: He's the man right now?
Speaker 4: What t he like?
Speaker 5: He like my fault? Take a t T Indian?
Speaker 2: Right? Yeah? Like he like from for New Zealand.
Speaker 5: Really yeah, I met him.
Speaker 2: I met him.
Speaker 4: I met him before I heard that.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but he the man right now? Like he
Speaker 1: but he got the game.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, it's cool with the president. I'm talking about
Speaker 5: I got Dan Taylor.
Speaker 4: Man, No, there you go, I got baby my dog.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: So how do you find time between touring and movies
Speaker 6: and writing books just to still have a social life, man,
Speaker 6: Because you gotta have you got to have material to
Speaker 6: draw off, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got.
Speaker 1: I like to talk the people on the phone and
Speaker 1: all that. I got a lot of people that I
Speaker 1: just talked to on the phone. And really that's why
Speaker 1: in a relationship, I talked to a.
Speaker 2: Lot of women.
Speaker 1: And I don't mean even dealing with them, it's just
Speaker 1: that conversation because they helped write my skits. But the
Speaker 1: reason why I got a lot of time because I
Speaker 1: shoot thirty skits one day, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So I really don't be this torring right now. That's
Speaker 1: why I'm ready to got tour that take up most
Speaker 1: of my time. But when I'm on when I'm off tour,
Speaker 1: and I shoot two months of videos in three days
Speaker 1: or four days, So I be having my time.
Speaker 2: I be getting that material talking to people just on
Speaker 2: the phone. Just what's up? A girl gave me a
Speaker 2: whole storyline. Uh.
Speaker 1: She was talking about her dude trying to open up
Speaker 1: a vending machine and she was like a vending machine,
Speaker 1: and I used that storyline in my skits and made
Speaker 1: so much money.
Speaker 2: I see, I see her check give w nap phone story.
Speaker 5: You got a whole camera crew that comes with you.
Speaker 2: No, I feel on my phone.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was always shocked on did a couple of
Speaker 5: sketches with DESI. I was like, Oh, this is just
Speaker 5: doing off your phone.
Speaker 2: It's just on their phone. Man, it's simplified.
Speaker 1: You put on that phone, make sure three minutes, don't edit,
Speaker 1: don't cut, load it up on Facebook YouTube, and it's
Speaker 1: just they throw them ass. And then yeah, when you
Speaker 1: kick it with women country women be like, look now
Speaker 1: I don't want to get pregnant. Oh no, they be like,
Speaker 1: you know when I kick it women, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, be a vibe because women always be my thing.
Speaker 2: That's what I mean.
Speaker 4: I just obvious.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, but you know when it's.
Speaker 3: Also obviously your pull out game is terrible.
Speaker 2: That means that means my sperms are strong. That's what
Speaker 2: it is.
Speaker 5: Strong.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: But I had seven kids by the time I was
Speaker 1: twenty two, so a lot of this I think about it,
Speaker 1: I only had I only had three by the time
Speaker 1: from twenty two to thirty five.
Speaker 4: A lot of my time we're talking about kids.
Speaker 5: Man.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 1: From where I come from, from the country, that was
Speaker 1: the minimum, Like kids was not a big you know,
Speaker 1: from front the country, having a lot of kids. We
Speaker 1: had big families, and to be honest, I always want
Speaker 1: to have a lot of kids. Now it's probably been
Speaker 1: easier if it would have been with one woman.
Speaker 2: But you know, it worked out.
Speaker 1: In the end of my book talk about that all
Speaker 1: the mothers and my kids, they stay right around me
Speaker 1: with all the family.
Speaker 2: They got kids in my house. All the kids stayed there.
Speaker 1: They all got a room at my house. So it
Speaker 1: became like a village. And it's love. You know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Like these kids go to this mother's house.
Speaker 1: I don't even know about it, the baby Mama's day.
Speaker 1: Like the kids even when they even when they into
Speaker 1: it and know like each other. The kids are being
Speaker 1: Panama seatd with one of the other ones and they
Speaker 1: all just a family pop up at each other's house.
Speaker 2: It's it's a beautiful thing.
Speaker 1: It turned out to be beautiful, but it didn't. That's
Speaker 1: why it didn't have to be that way. But that's
Speaker 1: what the books talks about how do you get things
Speaker 1: when your negative world, that you created this mess and
Speaker 1: then it turns out so beautiful in the end. It's
Speaker 1: like a painting on the wall. And that's what helped
Speaker 1: us on the way is all. There's no where you
Speaker 1: know all your kids first name, middle name, and birthday.
Speaker 1: Oh for sure, let me go go ten Tony Jamarrio

Speaker 1: all got W nine for them too, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, ten nine and nine And you paid for
Speaker 1: all of that, Yeah, because you know they tax is going.
Speaker 1: You gotta think about it. The way tax is set up,
Speaker 1: it ain't no way to really dodge it. The only
Speaker 1: thing they don't.
Speaker 2: Question it is giving people money.
Speaker 1: So you might as well live good within it the
Speaker 1: system because they gonna tax it anyway.
Speaker 2: So it's like, so, okay, this makes my life easier.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to get a nanny anyway, and then they're

Speaker 1: of it, and and the moms and everybody and the children.
Speaker 1: They respect you more when you when the moms are
Speaker 1: living the same way you living. Because I felt that
Speaker 1: from my kids. I got y'all won't tell you to
Speaker 1: they get older, and I just felt like they moms
Speaker 1: had to live a certain level too for them, and
Speaker 1: it made them happier because now they mom got a
Speaker 1: nice car. It's just one big family and the mom's
Speaker 1: getting the skits for free. Though I don't pay nobody
Speaker 1: to getting the skits.
Speaker 5: All the mom's being the skits monetize everybody nice.
Speaker 1: I got you kids, moms, everybody the family, they get
Speaker 1: a salary. So when they getting the skits, they don't
Speaker 1: get paid. Now the cast if all they get paid.
Speaker 1: Everybody get a check. But you know, it's it turned
Speaker 1: out to be a beautiful thing. And I wouldn't a
Speaker 1: buy nobody to go there route just the old country.
Speaker 1: Ain't with that route all because you got it my attentions,
Speaker 1: you know, like David and the Bible, he was wrong
Speaker 1: for dealing with that Shiva, but his heart was good.
Speaker 1: So sometimes people good heart, you gotta let God deal
Speaker 1: with them. And you know bas Shee became Solomon, and
Speaker 1: later on down that line came Jesus so.
Speaker 2: And my my attentions were good.
Speaker 1: I didn't mean to separate those women like that just
Speaker 1: end up having now kids, and I had to stand
Speaker 1: up on their responsibility and and it turned out to
Speaker 1: be beautiful in the end. Because Tony going to college,
Speaker 1: you're my first son. He got he going to college
Speaker 1: play basketball and color one. You he's the first son graduating,
