00:00:00I love you, baby, baby, say it right through and through
00:00:20I love you in spite of all the prayers I thank you
00:00:25I ain't running around drinking, staying out all night
00:00:30It's gonna take a lot of thinking to figure that it's right
00:00:35Oh, oh, and I'm never gonna get enough
00:00:38It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:00:42You're a hot ball of flame, you burn me up
00:00:47You're a love I cannot take
00:00:49Oh, oh, and I'm never gonna get enough
00:00:52It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:22It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:27It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:32It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:37It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:42It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:47It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:51It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:01:56It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:01It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:06It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:11It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:16It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:21It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:26It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:31It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:36It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:42It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:47It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:52It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:02:57It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:03:02It's like fire, you burn me up, you burn me up
00:03:07Well, excuse me, I apologize
00:03:10I have not introduced my friend, confidant
00:03:14And dare I say, a significant other
00:03:18Mr. Lance Manshaft
00:03:20Well, finally, thank you Miss Manners
00:03:23Well, whatever you know about manners
00:03:26I was the one who taught you
00:03:28I remember years and years and years ago
00:03:30Up at Raymond Burr's house
00:03:32Well, you were so busy oogling the pool boy
00:03:35You couldn't even remember what fork to use
00:03:38So there
00:03:45Hey, are you sure we're going the right way?
00:03:48That's what Eileen said
00:03:50She said it was a rural drive
00:03:52Yeah, uh, rural, that's a good definition
00:03:54This is definitely rural
00:03:58This road better empty out into the town soon
00:04:02You know, Eileen and I were probably playing in someone's house for the kid folk
00:04:06We don't get lost out here
00:04:09That was scary, okay
00:04:10That sounded just like some line out of a B-movie
00:04:12You know, it's like
00:04:14Hope you guys aren't planning on taking me out of the woods here
00:04:16And killing me in some sort of satanic ritual or some shit
00:04:20Oh shit, you found us out, Cheryl
00:04:22Must have seen the goat's head in my suitcase
00:04:25Better call Xavier and tell him the plan's off
00:04:27We'll need to find another virgin
00:04:29You ever notice how
00:04:31Prettier an area is, the uglier the people are?
00:04:35That's because they gotta have something pretty to look at
00:04:37They gotta have something to look forward to
00:04:39Could you imagine me stuck in some nasty ass town
00:04:41Surrounded by a bunch of ugly motherfuckers?
00:04:43Actually, yes, I can
00:04:45It's called doing Fred Schilling's gig in North Dakota
00:04:47I don't think I've ever done that gig
00:04:49What part of North Dakota?
00:04:51I don't know the name of the town
00:04:53Actually, I think it was called Nasty Ass Town, North Dakota
00:04:57I think I want to work that gig
00:04:58Doesn't sound like there's a lot of pudding out there
00:05:00Pudding?
00:05:02You know, like chicks
00:05:04No, like road pudding, you know, groupies
00:05:21Hi, how are you?
00:05:23Good
00:05:26Hey, you didn't even do a show when you're already in, bro
00:05:29That's a lot of pudding
00:05:31That's what I call rude tapioca
00:05:33Not nice
00:05:37What's up with the film crew, gentlemen?
00:05:39We're picking up banjo
00:05:41Oh, uh, we did comics for tonight
00:05:43We're shooting a documentary on stand-up comedy
00:05:47The show's been cancelled
00:05:52What do you mean? Nobody told us
00:05:55After the incident last week, I told Eileen it just wasn't going to work
00:06:00What incident?
00:06:04John, have a seat
00:06:06Please
00:06:14Now, you comfortable?
00:06:16Can't get you anything?
00:06:19All right, now I'm going to talk and you guys are going to listen
00:06:23Last week, one of your brethren insulted one of my better patrons, Big Lenny
00:06:27Patrons? More like denizens
00:06:30I said without comment
00:06:36Anyway, he insulted Big Lenny because he called his mother a whore
00:06:41Now, that's not the issue because, in fact, she is a whore
00:06:44And a very fine whore, old school
00:06:47Most of the guys in this bar have written the passage to manhood in her velvet saddle
00:06:51The thing that irritated him, and me, was the fact that he referred to her like she was common
00:06:57Like she was ordinary
00:06:59You know what, man? That's great
00:07:02But we really need to get out of here
00:07:05I'd love to listen to your story, but since we got screwed on this gig...
00:07:08Son, you can go when I'm finished
00:07:11We kind of got screwed on this gig, so I figure we should probably get going
00:07:16You can go when I'm finished, son
00:07:18Please do not call me son, unless you plan on playing ball with me, okay?
00:07:25Put your head on the bar
00:07:28Put your head on the bar, or I will
00:07:40Now, again, the issue is not whether Lenny's mom is a whore or not
00:07:43The issue is, as you guys come into these, as you call them banjo-picking shithole one-nighters
00:07:48And you talk about us like we're beneath you
00:07:51Like we're just some kind of roadkill on your little Audubon to success
00:07:55Kids, you gotta remember something, this is America
00:07:58These people are America
00:08:00We make you, we break you
00:08:02Without us, you become nothing more than a footnote
00:08:05Of course, maybe you're the exception
00:08:08You, I'm sure, are not
00:08:13Is it okay if I let my head up now?
00:08:16Because I'm having trouble breathing through your uncommon bar
00:08:20Get up
00:08:24Listen, sir, we didn't mean any disrespect
00:08:27But, you know, it's just we're really frustrated
00:08:31We traveled all this way for nothing, and we don't even have a place to stay
00:08:38All right
00:08:40You guys have been attentive to my little ramblings
00:08:43So, I'll tell you what, I'm gonna toss you a bone
00:08:46Now, I got a place about a mile down the road on the right-hand side
00:08:48It's not much, but it's clean
00:08:51So, I'll tell you what I'll do
00:08:52I'll put you guys up for the night
00:08:54Tomorrow, you call Eileen so you can get some kind of compensation
00:08:58Does that sound fair?
00:09:01Believe me, I will call Eileen
00:09:05That sounds... Thank you
00:09:07I really appreciate it
00:09:09You can leave now
00:09:12Leave now
00:09:15Now!
00:09:17Speaking of sleeping arrangements
00:09:21You know, we got one bed here
00:09:23I'm hoping you don't sleep naked
00:09:26Of course I'm not gonna sleep naked
00:09:28Good, because I didn't want us both being naked in the same bed, you know what I mean?
00:09:32You're not sleeping naked
00:09:34Dude, I gotta... I can't sleep in underwear, man
00:09:36I get all bound up and shit down there
00:09:38It doesn't work
00:09:39Underwear? Bullshit, man
00:09:40You're sleeping fully clothed, dude
00:09:41You're sleeping on the floor
00:09:43What are you, like, uh...
00:09:45Not quite sure of your masculinity, or...
00:09:47No, I just don't want to wake up with your masculinity poking me in the back
00:09:52So, does this mean, like, no cuddling?
00:09:57Was Richel was funny?
00:09:59But you're implying he is now?
00:10:02Well, let me just...
00:10:04Let me say something
00:10:05And I'm gonna be the one to say this
00:10:07It's not happening for Richie
00:10:09It's not happening
00:10:10Years ago, it might have
00:10:11And years and years ago
00:10:12But it's not now
00:10:13In a nutshell
00:10:15It's a night show with him calling
00:10:18I like to date the homeless
00:10:20And picking up a homeless...
00:10:21They're really easy to pick up, too
00:10:23It's like picking up a homeless woman's like
00:10:25Hey, baby
00:10:26Wanna keep warm?
00:10:30See the tall one?
00:10:31Oh, yeah?
00:10:32Her name's Nikki
00:10:33She's a stripper
00:10:34She wants me
00:10:35But, uh...
00:10:36Then again, who doesn't, huh?
00:10:38I gotta go
00:10:39A lot of comics were geeks
00:10:41Or nerds, or misfits, or whatever
00:10:42Back, you know
00:10:43It's true
00:10:44And they, uh...
00:10:45You know, they got into comedy
00:10:47To get back at the society that rejected them
00:10:50Or to get the women
00:10:53Who would never give them their time of day
00:10:55Really
00:10:56Because in order for a geek to get laid
00:10:57You've either gotta be famous
00:10:59Or own a software company
00:11:01And pay for a shitload of hookers
00:11:02And these guys would rather tell jokes
00:11:09So this is the comedy condo, as they say
00:11:11This is it
00:11:15Nobody said comics had to be neat, right?
00:11:17Just funny?
00:11:18Right
00:11:19Have a seat
00:11:21The comedy condo's kind of a...
00:11:23Sort of a vicious circle
00:11:25Like, the club puts absolutely no money into it
00:11:28Mm-hmm
00:11:29Because they know that some asshole comic's
00:11:31Just gonna get drunk
00:11:32And trash the place, so...
00:11:34That's why it always looks like shit
00:11:36But you can't really blame the club owners, though
00:11:38Because some comics are just idiots
00:11:40Like, I know some people
00:11:41Who do some, like...
00:11:42Crazy shit, like...
00:11:44So stupid
00:11:45Like, burn holes in the carpets
00:11:47And write on the walls
00:11:49Or get really drunk and pass out
00:11:52Or do really freaky shit to the couches
00:11:56So...
00:11:57Really?
00:11:59I don't mean that couch in particular
00:12:01I'm just giving you an example of
00:12:04What goes on in the comedy condo
00:12:07Actually, I think it was this couch
00:12:09I'd like to, uh...
00:12:10I'd like to get up
00:12:11And I'd like to, uh...
00:12:12I'd like to get one of these
00:12:14The Comics Bible
00:12:16A national paper or a local paper
00:12:19Mm-hmm
00:12:20Because there's usually...
00:12:21There's usually a story that can relate, you know
00:12:23That can fit into a bit
00:12:25That the locals will relate to, you know
00:12:28So you do a lot of current event material and...
00:12:33Not really
00:12:36Unless I see something good
00:12:39I'm gonna try to work it in
00:12:45What's up?
00:12:46You're back early, man
00:12:47What, uh...
00:12:48What happened to, uh...
00:12:49Nikki, uh...
00:12:50That girl you were working on, the stripper
00:12:52Godhead
00:12:55Oh, that's too bad, man, yeah
00:12:57I know how it feels
00:13:00Yeah, it was...
00:13:01Afterward, we're kicking it in her car and, uh...
00:13:03Um...
00:13:05Turns out, uh...
00:13:06You know, we're talking
00:13:07Whatever
00:13:09Turns out, uh...
00:13:10Nikki is short for Nicholas
00:13:13Yeah, he's a fucking transvestite
00:13:16Yeah, thank you
00:13:20Oh...
00:13:23Yeah
00:13:24Next time you see me talking to a chick after a show
00:13:26Just remind me, please
00:13:27To ask her if she's had any prostate trouble in her recent past
00:13:31Would you do that for me?
00:13:33Can I use that?
00:13:34Can I use that?
00:13:35Fuck you
00:13:37So what's your take on Sean?
00:13:39He's funny
00:13:40He's a funny guy
00:13:41Um...
00:13:42But...
00:13:43You know, the only thing is that
00:13:45With Sean, I mean, he...
00:13:48I think he's in it for the fame aspect, really
00:13:50To be honest
00:13:51Because he doesn't stick to one act
00:13:53He's always trying to come up with a gimmick
00:13:55Or, you know, to be a superstar
00:13:59Or he's always jumping on whatever bandwagon comes along
00:14:03Right
00:14:04To, like, get a TV series
00:14:06Anyway, I'm thinking about becoming a prop comic now
00:14:08I mean, I was watching that Potato Head guy
00:14:10His half-hour comedy special the other night
00:14:13And man
00:14:14That guy, he just, like, got a killing in the college market
00:14:18He's killing
00:14:19Are you sure you want to do that?
00:14:20I mean, really
00:14:21Because, like, that gives people no insight into who you are
00:14:25And most prop comedy is really stupid
00:14:30Yeah, but I don't know, man
00:14:31I mean, the people love stupid humor
00:14:32That's it
00:14:33People really love the stupid humor
00:14:34You gotta go for it
00:14:35I gotta go for it
00:14:36I'm thinking that's the way to go
00:14:37I think you should use, you know
00:14:38Work on your religious stuff
00:14:40And make a name for yourself that way
00:14:41Because that's really good
00:14:42And I got nothing against religion
00:14:43Like I said, my mom is very religious
00:14:45I've got nothing against religion
00:14:46I just have a different take on it
00:14:47You know what I mean?
00:14:48Because I'm thinking to myself
00:14:49God, by definition, is the supreme being, right?
00:14:53God's got a message for me
00:14:54God's smart enough to send me, like, a newsletter
00:14:57You know, something comprehensible, logical
00:15:00In a language that someone has spoken in the last 2,000 years
00:15:02You know
00:15:03The only thing that I get that resembles a newsletter, though
00:15:05Are these pamphlets that I get on my doorstep
00:15:07Every morning, every Saturday
00:15:08You know
00:15:09And I'm reading their pamphlet
00:15:10Because I'm a good sport
00:15:11I'm reading, I'm thinking to myself
00:15:12You know
00:15:13I don't think this is the word of God
00:15:14You know, I don't
00:15:15And maybe it's not really the pamphlet
00:15:17So much as it is the paper delivery boy
00:15:19That's bringing it to my doorstep, right?
00:15:21Because I'm looking at this guy going, yeah
00:15:23You know, man
00:15:24Nothing quite says divine messenger better
00:15:27Than a mustard-colored fake tweed jacket
00:15:29With Naga Head elbow patches
00:15:30You know what I mean?
00:15:31And he tells me he knows when the Armageddon is coming
00:15:33Well, judging by his pants
00:15:35Apparently it's coming in flood form
00:15:42Yeah, I heard something
00:15:48Hey, hey
00:15:49Hey
00:15:50Hey, brother
00:15:51That was some funny shit up there tonight
00:15:52Yeah, thanks, man
00:15:53Man, I ain't laughed that hard in a long time
00:15:55Really?
00:15:56For real, for real
00:15:57Yeah?
00:15:58For real
00:15:59Hey, you're alright, too
00:16:00But anyway
00:16:01That shit you were talking about
00:16:03You know, you were talking about
00:16:04Your parents dressing you
00:16:05Yeah
00:16:06I could totally relate
00:16:07Oh, yeah?
00:16:08My parents were the same way
00:16:09I mean, I let my wife dress me
00:16:10I mean, I let my wife dress me now
00:16:11But, like, you can see
00:16:13She's got a bit of a drinking problem, too
00:16:16Yeah, well
00:16:19You know
00:16:21I guess
00:16:22I guess my dad had a dick to photograph
00:16:25Hung like a mule, supposedly
00:16:28She checked to see if it was genetic?
00:16:29Uh-huh
00:16:30Huh?
00:16:31Nothing, he's just trying to be funny
00:16:34Well, leave it to a comedian to try to do a joke
00:16:41Well, I gotta go
00:16:43So soon?
00:16:45Yeah
00:16:46Yeah?
00:16:47Well, my wife's gonna get testy
00:16:49Because when she drinks
00:16:50She gets horny
00:16:52You know what I mean
00:16:53Oh, yeah, sure do
00:16:54Unfortunately
00:16:55But thanks for the visual
00:16:57Huh?
00:17:00Well, I gotta piss
00:17:01Okay
00:17:02You keep going, though
00:17:03You keep at it
00:17:05You're funny
00:17:06You're gonna make it
00:17:07Alright, thanks, man
00:17:08You're gonna make it
00:17:09I appreciate it
00:17:10Thanks, brother
00:17:11Alright
00:17:12Every fucking show
00:17:13There's always some guy
00:17:14Some drunk guy
00:17:15Who's gotta come up
00:17:16From the audience
00:17:17And relate to a story
00:17:18You know what I mean?
00:17:19Gotta tell you some badass joke
00:17:20Or whatever
00:17:21And every town you go to
00:17:22No matter how bad it is
00:17:23The smaller the town
00:17:24The smaller the crowd
00:17:25The worse the jokes
00:17:26Yeah, and the worse the breath
00:17:27Yeah, no shit, man
00:17:28My buzz got stronger
00:17:29Off each sentence
00:17:31Before today
00:17:33I was really thinking
00:17:34Is it all worth it?
00:17:35Or, uh
00:17:36Or should I just pack it in
00:17:37And go, uh
00:17:38Go back to work
00:17:39In 40 hours a week
00:17:40You know?
00:17:41But, uh
00:17:42Now that I got the good work
00:17:43From a man
00:17:44I think I'm gonna stick it out
00:17:47Because apparently
00:17:48I'm gonna make it
00:17:50So do you always walk
00:17:51To get your coffee
00:17:52In the morning?
00:17:53Yeah, I do
00:17:54I like to get coffee
00:17:55Or, uh
00:17:56Or, uh
00:17:57Breakfast
00:17:58Or something to eat
00:17:59You know
00:18:00It's hard to get exercise
00:18:01On the road
00:18:02So I like to, uh
00:18:03I like to walk
00:18:04As much as I can
00:18:05That sounds like a good idea
00:18:06Yeah
00:18:07Hey
00:18:08Hey, man
00:18:09Give me a dollar
00:18:11Come on, shit, dude

00:18:25He didn't even fucking
00:18:26Ask politely
00:18:27Yeah, did you hear
00:18:28The way he asked, though?
00:18:29I mean
00:18:30Give me a dollar
00:18:31What am I gonna do, huh?
00:18:32I'm not gonna argue with that
00:18:33Fuck it, it's only a dollar
00:18:34No, dude
00:18:35It's not the buck, man
00:18:36It's the principle of the matter
00:18:37I mean, you know

00:18:40I mean, you gotta make him
00:18:41Work for this money

00:18:49Massive
00:18:50Well
00:18:51Well, dare I say
00:18:52Thick

00:18:57Oogling
00:18:58Well, oogling
00:18:59That's what you were doing

00:19:03Lance and I
00:19:04While we were selling
00:19:05Men's furnishings
00:19:06Furnishings?
00:19:07Well, he's a huge man
00:19:08For God's sake
00:19:0922 neck
00:19:1138 sleeve
00:19:15And he owned his own island
00:19:17Ray, for God's sake
00:19:19He was his own island
00:19:20Yes
00:19:22Oh
00:19:23And every Friday night
00:19:25We would all
00:19:27Caravan up to Raymond Burr's house
00:19:29And have dinner
00:19:31Because he was
00:19:32Well, he was a gourmet cook
00:19:34Yeah, oh

00:19:58And I was
00:19:59Alfalfa
00:20:00Oh, yes
00:20:01And Raymond Burr would be there
00:20:03In his apron
00:20:04Mm-hmm
00:20:05And for God's sake, not much else
00:20:06Oh, no

00:20:18Holy shit, you're right
00:20:20He's drinking a beer
00:20:22Oh, wow

00:20:27Hey, yeah, that's right
00:20:28Thanks, man
00:20:29I appreciate that, that's cool
00:20:30Yeah, but

00:20:32On drugs or booze
00:20:33And here you are drinking a beer
00:20:34What's up with that?
00:20:35No, no, no
00:20:36I used the buck that you gave me
00:20:37For the cover charge
00:20:38That's cool, you know
00:20:39Anyway, I wasn't gonna drink
00:20:40But, you know
00:20:41The club has a two-drink minimum
00:20:42And everything, you know
00:20:43What am I supposed to do?
00:20:44It's not my policy
00:20:45Yeah

00:20:49Anyway, you know what?
00:20:50You were really funny tonight

00:20:57So
00:21:00Anyway, man
00:21:01Keep it up, dude
00:21:02You're going places
00:21:09So, did you give it to him or what?
00:21:10No
00:21:12Got me on a technicality
00:21:14Technicality?
00:21:15What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:21:17He didn't use the dollar I gave him
00:21:18On the beer
00:21:19He used it on the cover charge
00:21:21And you fell for that?
00:21:22Dude

00:21:32Bucket, man
00:21:33It's only a buck
00:21:34Dude, it's not the buck
00:21:35It's the principle of the matter
00:21:36You got conned by a guy
00:21:37Wearing nine layers of clothing
00:21:38That's fucking sad
00:21:39No, no, no, it's cool

00:21:46Yeah, you know, he did
00:21:47I got two experts
00:21:48Telling me I'm going places
00:21:49You know, I really wish
00:21:50I could live with that
00:21:51But, no
00:21:52That's not good
00:21:55Where's he going?
00:21:56I don't know
00:21:57So, uh

00:21:59Going dancing later
00:22:00Oh

00:22:29Oh
00:22:30Well, I guess you showed him
00:22:32You guys ready?
00:22:42Champagne
00:22:43Color your eyes
00:22:45What's your sign?
00:22:47Are you hitting on me?
00:22:48Am I hitting on you?
00:22:49No
00:22:50It's for verification of this ID
00:22:53See
00:22:54If this ain't yours
00:22:55You might have the dates memorized
00:22:57But you're not gonna know the guy's sign
00:22:59Smart, huh?
00:23:00Fucking brilliant
00:23:01Uh

00:23:44Wait, wait, wait
00:23:45What?
00:23:46You forgot to pay the cover charge
00:23:47It's five bucks
00:23:48What are you talking about?
00:23:49I thought, you know
00:23:50Oh, all you thought
00:23:51You know
00:23:52I see how it is
00:23:53But there's strings attached
00:23:54You know
00:23:55I don't want your fucking free passes
00:23:58Because they're not really free, are they?
00:24:07Hey, um
00:24:09We're filming a documentary here
00:24:11And if you'll let us in
00:24:12We'll put you in the movie
00:24:13Really?
00:24:14Yeah
00:24:15You'll put me in the movie
00:24:16Yeah
00:24:24How Come chorayım
00:24:29I love you baby
00:24:31Straight right through and through
00:24:34I love you in spite of
00:24:36All of the crazy things you do
00:24:38Well I'm running round and drinking
00:24:41And stayin' in town all night
00:24:43Well it doesn't take a lot of thinkin'
00:24:45To figure that he's right
00:24:48Oh I never get enough
00:24:50Like the fire you etwas me.
00:24:52What are you guys doing?
00:24:54Um, we're making a documentary film.
00:24:56Oh, really? What about?
00:24:57But this guy right here is a comedian.
00:24:59Oh, really? Is that right?
00:25:00Yeah.
00:25:01Yeah.
00:25:02So you're filming now?
00:25:04We're filming right here.
00:25:05You know, he did a show here in town.
00:25:07Oh, yeah.
00:25:08No, that's great.
00:25:09Actually, no.
00:25:10I'll be very quiet.
00:25:12If you try to get out of the way, you know, whatever.
00:25:14But, you know, if the camera shows up,
00:25:16you can cross my face.
00:25:18Very photogenic.
00:25:19Great.
00:25:20Very natural.
00:25:22Fantastic.
00:25:23So let me know if you're okay to do another round.
00:25:24Okay.
00:25:25Great.
00:25:27Thanks.
00:25:29So where are we going next?
00:25:31Um, well, see, Tuesday we've got to be in Sacramento.
00:25:36But Monday, we've got a little one night or someplace in between.
00:25:40It's just, you know, I don't even know the name of the house.
00:25:43You don't sound happy about it.
00:25:45Nah, it's cool. It's cool.
00:25:48I mean, why do you even do it?
00:25:51Well, you know, the lady who books it,
00:25:53she heard we were going to be out in this area.
00:25:55So, you know, she asked if we would do it.
00:25:58And, you know, I figure we're going to be out here.
00:26:02It's a little extra cash.
00:26:03It's on the way.
00:26:04You know, what the hell.
00:26:06You know, it's an awful gig.
00:26:10A lot of owners or bookers will just book you right off that recommendation.
00:26:14Oh.
00:26:15That's how I get into a lot of clubs.
00:26:17I don't know.
00:26:19You're back soon.
00:26:21Didn't find no one to dance with?
00:26:23No, I did.
00:26:24I got slapped.
00:26:26You did?
00:26:27Turned on a charm early.
00:26:29Yeah.
00:26:30Huh?
00:26:31You know, I just didn't want the same thing to happen again,
00:26:34like it did the other night, you know.
00:26:36So, what'd you do?
00:26:38You grabbed her crotch and checked for a penis?
00:26:42Yeah, right.
00:26:44Yeah, right.
00:26:46I just, uh, asked her if she was a woman.
00:26:51You just asked her if she was a woman?
00:26:53Yeah.
00:26:54You just came out and asked her if she was a woman?
00:26:57Yeah.
00:26:59Did she look like she could be a man?
00:27:01Not really, but then again, neither did Nikki.
00:27:06What did she look like?
00:27:08She was all right.
00:27:09Like, I guess she was attractive.
00:27:13There she is.
00:27:14You're an asshole.
00:27:20What's going, Casanova?
00:27:24Way to pick up the chicks, huh?
00:27:26Hi, I'm Sean.
00:27:27Are you a man?
00:27:28Fuck you.
00:27:29That's all the line that gets me in bed.
00:27:31God, I could dance.
00:27:32Oh.
00:27:34I taught dancing at Arthur Murray Dance School in Sioux City, Iowa.
00:27:39True.
00:27:40And I taught Dear Abby and her lovely sister.
00:27:43What is that other nosy bitch?
00:27:45Ann Landers.
00:27:46Ann Landers.
00:27:47Oh, oh.
00:27:48And I taught them how to dance in Sioux City, Iowa.
00:27:51Oh, good God, Sioux City.
00:27:53Try being artistic in that, oh, in Iowa, for God's sake.
00:27:59Sweet Jesus.
00:28:00Well, it was years and years ago.
00:28:03Got a call from the NBC people today.
00:28:06That's great.
00:28:07Was it an audition?
00:28:10No, actually, I had an audition about a month ago for a new sitcom.
00:28:15So did you hear bad news about it, or?
00:28:18Yeah.
00:28:20Apparently, I'm too witty.
00:28:22Too witty?
00:28:23Mm-hmm.
00:28:24Hmm.
00:28:25Yep.
00:28:26They said that Intelligent Comedy was last season.
00:28:29They like my physical stuff, but they don't anticipate physical comedy coming back into fashion for another year or two.
00:28:39That's insane.
00:28:41I mean, if you're funny, you're funny, right?
00:28:44I mean...
00:28:45Yeah, to everybody but the people who count.
00:28:48So what did they say was in fashion?
00:28:53Impressionists.
00:28:54What about Impressionists?
00:28:56Nothing.
00:28:57It's just, I just, I got a call from NBC today, and they told me that my brand of comedy was out of fashion and that Impressionists are in.
00:29:06God damn it!
00:29:07What?
00:29:09Yeah, I just fucking went out and spent like $2,000 worth of, like, you know, on toys.
00:29:14And I went to the toy stores and novelty shops and all these, like, you know, second-hand stores, you know.
00:29:19Buying stuff to assemble and turn into my prop comic act, and now you're telling me it's worthless.
00:29:23Don't worry about it, man.
00:29:24I mean, it's just, you know, I don't know why you care.
00:29:26It's just one guy's opinion, and it'll probably change next week anyway.
00:29:31Yeah, you're probably right.
00:29:33Shit, what am I gonna do, let it go to waste?
00:29:35I mean, look out at the car out there, man.
00:29:37I got, like, I got, like, a trunk full of shit strapped to the roof.
00:29:45Fuck, man.
00:29:46I don't fucking know, right?
00:29:47We're in there for, like, fucking half an hour.
00:29:48We're eating some breakfast.
00:29:49Come out.
00:29:50All my shit is gone.
00:29:51Fucking my, still my whole fucking act has been stolen.
00:29:54Man, this is worse than doing a set in front of Troy Mills.
00:29:56At least he only steals a couple jokes.
00:29:59I wonder, maybe let's have a potato head.
00:30:02All right, guys.
00:30:03Here's the deal.
00:30:04What exactly was missing from the truck?
00:30:05Fucking everything, man.
00:30:06I fucking, I spent out, like, fucking, what?
00:30:07Twenty-five hundred fucking dollars worth of shit this morning.
00:30:09All right?
00:30:10Every fucking thing I had.
00:30:11My whole life savings was in that fucking trunk.
00:30:13All right?
00:30:14Now I got fucking nothing.
00:30:15Everything was in there.
00:30:16Okay, you're a comedian.
00:30:17Well, maybe you should rely on wit and not so much props.
00:30:20Look, man, I was fucking becoming a prop comic, so I didn't need to rely on wit.
00:30:24You obviously don't understand the business, so, you know.
00:30:27All right, well, here's the deal.
00:30:28Please stick to being a cop.
00:30:29Here's the deal.
00:30:30We're not gonna put roadblocks up all over the city to find guys with stolen wigs and five-wheel bicycles.
00:30:35Well, what the fuck are you gonna do, then?
00:30:36This is my fucking life savings, man.
00:30:37I understand that, but we're not gonna block the whole road down for you.
00:30:40I mean, we'll do what we can to try to find you, and if we do, we'll call you.
00:30:43But here's a little advice.
00:30:44If you're gonna be a comedian, maybe you should write some really good material.
00:30:47It's just an idea, because then if this stuff happens, you can at least rely on your wit.
00:30:51All right?
00:30:52All right, whatever, thanks.
00:30:53Talk to you later.
00:30:54Fucking comedy advice from Johnny Law.
00:30:57Now we know why they call him Ironside.
00:30:58Oh, oh!
00:30:59Roll him on in!
00:31:01Oh, that's the wrong theme song!
00:31:06Boom!
00:31:07Shit like this always happens.
00:31:08It does.
00:31:09That's why, you know, I hate to drive anymore.
00:31:10I never drive.
00:31:11And I fly as much as I possibly can.
00:31:13That wouldn't have fucking done me any good anyway.
00:31:15This shit always happens to me.
00:31:17You're right, man.
00:31:18You're right.
00:31:19I mean, bad luck follows you around like B.O. at a Grateful Dead concert.
00:31:25All I'm saying is that if I weren't a punk band, I would never do this.
00:31:29If I weren't a punk band, I would never sell out.
00:31:31You know what I mean?
00:31:32I mean, that's what punk's about, man.
00:31:34It's about, you know, it's about the scene.
00:31:37It's about saying, fuck corporate rock.
00:31:39And how can you say, fuck corporate rock, and then sign like a big three-album deal with like Atlantic or some big record label like that?
00:31:46You know what I mean?
00:31:47I mean, that's like a rabbi converting to Catholicism because somebody gave him a couple of million.
00:31:51You know, all I'm saying is, be true to your convictions.
00:31:53You know what I mean?
00:31:54If you really believe something, believe it.
00:31:55And if you do, be true to your convictions.
00:31:57That's all I'm saying.
00:31:58I agree with you.
00:31:59But, I got a question for you.
00:32:02What?
00:32:04How come you keep changing your act?
00:32:06Change your act into something you're not, just so you can make it big.
00:32:11Isn't that kind of like selling out?
00:32:13I'm not in a punk band.
00:32:16Sean, come on, hurry up, let's get going.
00:32:18I'm coming, I'm coming.
00:32:21I'm almost ready, I just gotta put on my shoes.
00:32:23What's the big rush tonight?
00:32:25It's just, I hear weird things about this club owner, Jared.
00:32:28He's got specific ideas about the way he wants things to be run here.
00:32:32So, since I never worked for him before, I just want him to get there and make a good first impression.
00:32:39Hey, besides, he says, uh, John said he's gonna open up two more clubs, so he's a good guy to be in with.
00:32:45Two more, really?
00:32:46Yeah.
00:32:47Where at?
00:32:48Um, I think he said, Arizona and Texas.
00:32:52But, he said he overheard him saying something about San Jose too, so, it's anybody's guess.
00:32:58Well, that's cool.
00:33:00Alright, I'm ready.
00:33:01Ready to go?
00:33:02Yeah.
00:33:03Alright, cool.
00:33:05Okay.
00:33:08Ready?
00:33:09Yes.
00:33:10Okay.
00:33:12Alright, I got the keys.
00:33:14Hey, do you know what you're gonna be doing tonight?
00:33:15Uh, yeah, I guess I do.
00:33:16Yeah?
00:33:17That's why I'm working on you.
00:33:18Alright.
00:33:19Excuse me.
00:33:21Bartender.
00:33:22Can I talk to you for a second, huh?
00:33:23I don't wanna be rude, I don't wanna get in your face, nothing like that, you know.
00:33:25But, I specifically ordered a margarita blended, no salt.
00:33:30Huh?
00:33:31And there's salt on the rim.
00:33:32No, no, no.
00:33:33Yes, there is.
00:33:34Fucking salt right there.
00:33:35I fucking taste the salt.
00:33:37You're the fucking salt right there, huh?
00:33:38You salted a little bit.
00:33:40Yes, you did.
00:33:41No.
00:33:42Yes, you did.
00:33:43Huh?
00:33:44You fucking ordered it for somebody else?
00:33:45I think I'm the only guy here, huh?
00:33:46You see somebody else ordered a margarita, you fucking prick?
00:33:49Huh?
00:33:50Hey.
00:33:51Bill.
00:33:52My friend Bill's gonna get something to drink.
00:33:53You better not fuck up his order.
00:33:54What do you want, Bill?
00:33:55You want something to drink?
00:33:56I'm not gonna drink, you see, because I'm thinking this time I'm gonna have something
00:33:59like a little, a jello shot maybe.
00:34:01Just a jello shot.
00:34:02Can I get a little tipsy without getting all full up with the water, you know what I'm
00:34:06saying?
00:34:07Mmm.
00:34:10The fuck is wrong with you, huh?
00:34:12Hey, Chris, you're drinking with us, right?
00:34:13You gonna drink with us?
00:34:15No.
00:34:16I'm not drinking again.
00:34:17We've gone out three nights in a row.
00:34:19Every night I gotta take a fucking cab.
00:34:21I'd be damned if I'm gonna get in a cab with those fucking assholes again.
00:34:24The fucking Nazi cab drivers are crazy.
00:34:28Hey, man.
00:34:29You were awesome tonight, huh?
00:34:30Thanks, man.
00:34:31Yeah, I didn't know you could do all those voices.
00:34:33I mean, nobody does, man.
00:34:35I, I, I could always do it.
00:34:37I just never did that stuff before.
00:34:38Really?
00:34:39I didn't want to be known as like a hack or impressionist or nothing like that.
00:34:42No, man, that's funny.
00:34:43That was some really funny shit, man.
00:34:45You should definitely keep that.
00:34:46That's a strong closer.
00:34:47Oh, you think so?
00:34:48Mmm-hmm.
00:34:49Definitely.
00:34:50Oh, cool.
00:34:51That was good, man.
00:34:52Did you get a chance to talk to Jared?
00:34:53Uh, not yet.
00:34:54No.
00:34:55No, he, he said, uh, he was gonna come in here and talk to me.
00:34:57Oh.
00:34:58Oh, yeah?
00:34:59Yeah.
00:35:00He was in the middle of something.
00:35:01I don't know how he couldn't have been happy, though, man.
00:35:02He fucking, he tore that crowd up tonight.
00:35:04Yeah?
00:35:05Yeah.
00:35:06He'd have to be stoked.
00:35:07Hope so.
00:35:08All right.
00:35:09You have Jared's ears.
00:35:10Sean, would you excuse us, please?
00:35:11Yeah, sure.
00:35:12Rich, have a seat.
00:35:13And, Sean.
00:35:14Yeah.
00:35:15I like what I heard tonight.
00:35:16I see potential.
00:35:17Now, we'll talk later.
00:35:18No, thank you.
00:35:19But I definitely will use you in my clubs when I open the new ones in the future.
00:35:20Yeah.
00:35:21Yeah.
00:35:22Yeah.
00:35:23Yeah.
00:35:24Yeah.
00:35:25Yeah.
00:35:26Yeah.
00:35:27Yeah.
00:35:28Yeah.
00:35:29Yeah.
00:35:30Yeah.
00:35:31Yeah.
00:35:32Yeah.
00:35:33Yeah.
00:35:34Yeah.
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:36Yeah.
00:35:37Yeah.
00:35:38Yeah.
00:35:39Yeah.
00:35:40Yeah.
00:35:41Yeah.
00:35:42Yeah.
00:35:43Yeah.
00:35:44So, I'm going to give you a couple new ones in the future.
00:35:45Thanks.
00:35:46Sounds great.
00:35:47Rich, I, what can I say?
00:35:48John told me you were funny, and I can honestly say, he was right.
00:35:54I just have one question.
00:36:01Ask away.
00:36:02What's your point?
00:36:04I've been a bartender for 13 years, actually 14 years, and working in a comedy club is
00:36:12a little bit different than working in dance clubs, because at a dance club, the bar is
00:36:16where it's happening.
00:36:17You know what I mean?
00:36:18People come to the bar, they're yelling and screaming, they're partying, throwing money
00:36:22around.
00:36:23They buy the drinks from me, they tip me, and that's the way I can pull in two bills
00:36:26a night.
00:36:27Here, it's not so much.
00:36:29I gotta depend on the waitresses to tip me out.
00:36:33And you know, a lot of them got kids, they're single moms, and you know, what's gonna happen
00:36:39there?
00:36:40Julie, how many kids you got?
00:36:42None.
00:36:43Shut up.
00:36:44I like to get to know a lot of the comics that come around here.
00:36:48They're pretty cool, you know?
00:36:50Figure like one of them will make it big and come back and get me, you know, sweep me off
00:36:53my feet.
00:36:54We'll get married and move to like, probably LA.
00:36:57Yeah, we'd probably go to LA, that's where the movie stars live, you know?
00:37:00We could buy like, a big truck with like, big monster tires and a roll bar, we'd totally
00:37:06live it up.
00:37:07Jared decided to take me under his wing and mold me into a great comedian, I mean, who's
00:37:12a better authority on comedy than Jared, he's been in the business, what, 25 years?
00:37:17Anyway, he also told me to change my name, make it into something funny.
00:37:22So you know, he said, if you sound funny, people are gonna think you're funny.
00:37:27Then I figured, uh, Bill Hilarity, boom, what's funnier than hilarity, I mean, hilarity
00:37:32means funny, right?
00:37:33Funny's good, yes, yes, funny is good, but, I require a little extra from my headliners.
00:37:41I want to see a message.
00:37:44I want them to give something to the audience.
00:37:47I gave them what they wanted, right, I gave them laughter.
00:37:51No, no.
00:37:54No.
00:37:57Yes.
00:37:58The thing that pisses me off about this job is the comedians, they don't tip, you know,
00:38:02generally.
00:38:03They're like, hey, I'm the comedian, I'm gonna pay you for the drinks, you know, they take
00:38:06that attitude with me, and that really kind of pisses me off, you know, because they should
00:38:10tip, because we don't really make the money.
00:38:12I'd like to be a bartender, that'd be cool, you know, make the drinks, that'd be cool,
00:38:16because I'm really creative, I could do that, yeah.
00:38:19Like, taste them and like, test them out and like, make up new drinks, because see, the
00:38:22other night I was at home, and my roommate drank all the rest of my beer, so I was mixing
00:38:27together whatever I had, like vodka and tequila, Kahlua, a little grenadine, it was pretty
00:38:33good.
00:38:34All right, but while I was making it, I was making macaroni and cheese for dinner, and
00:38:38I ripped open that little powdered cheese packet, you know, and I spilled some in my
00:38:42drink, and I wasn't gonna get rid of my drink, because that's all I had, you know, so I stirred
00:38:49it up, and I drank it, it was pretty good, yeah, yeah, the cheesy whore.
00:38:54I'm the one in charge here, really, I'm the guy making the drinks, I'm in charge of the
00:38:58comedy juice, I'm pushing it out there, if I make weak drinks, it's gonna be a weak show,
00:39:03if I make strong drinks, it's gonna be a strong show, and that's what I tell these fuckers
00:39:06when they don't tip me.
00:39:08This could be one of those like, theme drinks, like a blow job, or like, sex on a beach,
00:39:11you know, and you could have like, a ritual that you'd have to go through, the bartender
00:39:15would set the drink up in front of you, and you'd have to say something like, where's
00:39:19my fucking sandwich, bitch?
00:39:21Nobody gathered around here, and even if there was people here, you're not supposed to talk,
00:39:25because there's a fucking genius on the stage, you know what I mean?
00:39:27Rich, when you get up on that stage, you grab that microphone, you're the leader, they're
00:39:33looking to you for guidance.
00:39:38Comedy's not about humor, or laughter, or any of that superficial bullshit that people
00:39:43tell you it's about.
00:39:45I'm still working on my jokes, I don't get a lot of laughs, uh, Jared says that's okay,
00:39:50he says, uh, comedy's not about laughter, I think I'm pretty good for a beginner.
00:39:54I'm not telling you how to do your act, okay, and I'm not telling you that I'm not gonna
00:39:58book you in the future, cause, I like you.
00:40:02All I'm saying is, you need to work on a message.
00:40:05I know what I'm talking about, I've been around a long time, I know a lot of people, I have
00:40:12a lot of connections, I've got a lot of people's sitcoms, a lot.
00:40:18And I can do it again, if I truly believe in that person.
00:40:23Your style of comedy's in right now, that intelligent, physical.
00:40:27If I wasn't doing this, I'll be honest with you, I'd probably be a comedian myself, because
00:40:31I'm a funny fuck, you know what I mean?
00:40:35I'm twice as funny as the jerks that get up here.
00:40:40That comic lifestyle thing, that doesn't make it with me, you know, stretching from gig
00:40:44to gig, no pun, they don't make any money, they can make any money, you ever seen the
00:40:47way these guys dress?
00:40:48They're like fucking dirt poor, and I like to live my life, you know, I have a certain
00:40:53standard that I like to live by, you know, I got a good car, my apartment, but I could
00:40:59be a comedian if I wanted to, I got a lot of funny shit, man.
00:41:02Like the other night, this guy comes up to the bar, and he says, he goes, I like Sex
00:41:08on the Beast, and I said, you're gonna have to get her permission on that one, buddy,
00:41:13I can give you permission for that.
00:41:16Anyway, that's just an idea for a joke, but I got hundreds of fucking funny jokes like
00:41:23that.
00:41:24Personally, I think you're exactly what the networks are looking for right now.
00:41:29What I'm saying here is, that when my audiences leave my club, okay, not only do I want them
00:41:35to think, yay, I had a great time, but I want them to be able to believe that they
00:41:40left there with something special, they were able to take something special home with them.
00:41:45Have you tried selling t-shirts?
00:41:49I'm working on this bit about the spotted owl, I'm saving that for when I'm a headliner,
00:41:54he says it's all about the message.
00:41:56Jared knows.
00:41:57You see, runnin' a comedy club, it's not all about fillin' seats, sellin' drinks and
00:42:09bookin' acts.
00:42:12I'm sort of like a surrogate father to some of these young comics that come in here, this
00:42:16club is, it's like a home away from home, you know, and like a good father, I want my
00:42:22comedians to do something with their lives, to really make an impact on society, to give
00:42:27back to the world.
00:42:28You know why?
00:42:29Because that's what comedy's all about, it's about love, it's about caring, it's a, it's,
00:42:34wait a minute, I'm not done here, I'm making a point, hey, where the hell are you going?
00:42:39Hey, who knows more about comedy than Jared?
00:42:42You prick.
00:42:43So did he really get you the sitcom?
00:42:46I don't know, that's what he said, I don't know.
00:42:51He knows a lot of people, he's been in business a while, but this is Sacramento, not exactly
00:42:57L.A., so, could be on the level, but it could just be like a big ego trip for him too, but
00:43:05he wants me to do a little spiel at the end, I'll do it, this club pays pretty well and
00:43:11he's got a pretty good crowd, so, I'll do it.
00:43:14Who are you callin'?
00:43:15Uh, Jim Phillips, comedy contact.
00:43:17Really?
00:43:18Yeah, you know him?
00:43:19Yeah, you work for him?
00:43:20No, I've been trying to get in for like a fucking year, man, just get to run around all the time.
00:43:24Really?
00:43:25Well, he loves me, make him the phone.
00:43:27Really?
00:43:28Yeah.
00:43:29Okay.
00:43:30Hold on, hold on.
00:43:32Yes, Jim, please, Rich Burns, hello, hey Jim, what's up, it's, it's Rich, how you doin'?
00:43:41Good, good, yeah, oh, I know, yeah, I'm gonna be there in, uh, in March, right?
00:43:50Yeah, March 17th, right, excellent, look, I was wondering if you, uh, if you have, uh,
00:43:56do you have a feature for that week?
00:43:59Oh, really?
00:44:00Really.
00:44:01Oh, because I was thinking, I was, well, I was just gonna ask if I could bring my own,
00:44:06Sean Payne, but yeah, he's good, he's good.
00:44:11Oh, well, I've been going on, uh, three weeks with him now.
00:44:15Yeah, no, he's rocking the room, definitely.
00:44:19Okay, he's right here, hold on, do you have, um, second week of April?
00:44:24April?
00:44:25Yeah.
00:44:26Yeah, I got it, it's cool.
00:44:30Yeah, he does?
00:44:32All right, all right, excellent, thanks, Jim, um, yeah, I'll see you soon, okay, I will,
00:44:38bye-bye.
00:44:41You're in, second week of April.
00:44:43No shit?
00:44:44No, I tried to get us to work together, but, you know, you had it filled, so.
00:44:47That easy.
00:44:48Dude, thanks, man, no problem.
00:44:51Well, um, I want to thank you all for coming out, and, uh, I hope you had a good time,
00:44:59because really, that's what it's all about, good times and good laughs, right?
00:45:05I mean, they say, uh, laughter's the best medicine, and, uh, and laughter is a cure-all,
00:45:14both physically and mentally, you know, and if I could make just one of you laugh and
00:45:23brighten up your day, then I've done my job.
00:45:29And all I ask for you in return is that you go out and brighten up someone else's day
00:45:41by either telling them a joke or giving them a compliment.
00:45:46Make someone smile.
00:45:48Because if, if everyone can just make one person smile, or put laughter on another person's
00:45:58lips, then we can heal this torn nation.
00:46:05And answer Rodney King's question.
00:46:11Yes, we can all get along.
00:46:17Hey, what's up?
00:46:18Hey, man.
00:46:19What the hell was that bullshit?
00:46:22Uh, nothing, uh, Jared wants all his headliners to have a message.
00:46:29A message?
00:46:30Yeah.
00:46:31Pretty stupid, huh?
00:46:33It's his fuck club, man.
00:46:35Yeah?
00:46:36I don't know.
00:46:37Do you think anyone bought it?
00:46:40Not a one.
00:46:41I didn't think so.
00:46:44I was sort of screwing around just to show how stupid I look, you know?
00:46:48Who doesn't think I was mocking them?
00:46:51That was beautiful!
00:46:55Absolutely brilliant.
00:46:56Did I tell you, or did I tell you?
00:46:58You gotta trust Jared, huh?
00:47:00I've been in this business too long to be wrong, baby.
00:47:03Hey, I tell you what, take note of your friend here.
00:47:06If you ever want to be a headliner, he's good.
00:47:09Fuckin' beautiful.
00:47:16Sean?
00:47:17Hey!
00:47:18What's happening?
00:47:19Wow.
00:47:20I didn't think you made it.
00:47:22Yeah, I came in a little late, but, you know, I only missed like two minutes of your act.
00:47:27Wow, you look great.
00:47:29You look really great.
00:47:30Oh, um, this is Cheryl, by the way.
00:47:32Hi.
00:47:33Cheryl, the one in your documentary, and Scary Crew.
00:47:35Hi.
00:47:36And this is the other comic, Rich.
00:47:37Hi.
00:47:39Hi.
00:47:40This is Alyssa.
00:47:41I'm sorry, my sister, Alyssa.
00:47:42Oh, hi.
00:47:43You look nothing like Sean.
00:47:45Thank God.
00:47:46I know.
00:47:47Well, we're not really related.
00:47:49Oh, you're not?
00:47:50No.
00:47:51Are you like stepbrother and sister?
00:47:53Kind of.
00:47:54It's a long story.
00:47:56Maybe I'll tell you about it later, you know?
00:47:58Actually, you know, I live here in Sac.
00:48:00Maybe we can get together later on in the week and hang out or something.
00:48:03I thought you were really funny.
00:48:04Oh, really?
00:48:05Mm-hmm.
00:48:06Sure.
00:48:07That'd be great.
00:48:08Yeah, we could go get a cup of coffee or something.
00:48:10Yeah.
00:48:11You never told me you had a sister.
00:48:13Yeah, I didn't know that was supposed to be your own personal Czech fucking glory.
00:48:17Hey, man.
00:48:18I'm not picking up on your sister.
00:48:20This is Chris, Sean.
00:48:21We're just talking.
00:48:23I'm sorry.
00:48:24I'm just...
00:48:25I overreacted, I guess.
00:48:28I just had this kind of thought of my sister dating a comic.
00:48:32I don't know.
00:48:34I'm just...
00:48:35I don't know.
00:48:36It's stupid.
00:48:38You?
00:48:39Yeah.
00:48:40Pretty much.
00:48:41Sorry, man.
00:48:42No offense.
00:48:43It's all right.
00:48:44I don't know.
00:48:45Get us some drinks or something.
00:48:48I'll go with you.
00:48:49Why don't you guys sit?
00:48:50You mind talking?
00:48:51Yeah, that's fine.
00:48:52So how exactly are you two related?
00:48:55His dad was going to marry my mom.
00:48:58And we lived together for about five years or so in high school.
00:49:02And then his dad cheated on my mom.
00:49:05And they broke up.
00:49:07But during that time, we called each other brother and sister
00:49:10because I had two other friends named Sean and a cousin named Sean.
00:49:14So when I would say Sean, people would say Sean who?
00:49:18Sean Andrews, Sean McNamara, your cousin, or your brother.
00:49:22So it just became my brother.
00:49:24Right.
00:49:25And then after our parents broke up, we just kept calling each other brother and sister.
00:49:29I guess it's because we're the same age.
00:49:32We developed a tight bond or something.
00:49:35Have you always been close, even from the beginning?
00:49:37No, not at all.
00:49:39At first, he would always try to get with me.
00:49:42And when I think about it now, it's really kind of gross.
00:49:47It seems so incestuous now.
00:49:50So you're saying that Sean picked up on you?
00:49:52Yeah.
00:49:53Like when we'd watch a scary movie or something,
00:49:56he'd act all scared and then try to cuddle up to me.
00:49:59And then sometimes, he would say that he couldn't sleep
00:50:04and he'd want to come into my room and sleep with me in my bed.
00:50:07And even when we got older, he always, always had to hug me.
00:50:12And they were long hugs, too.
00:50:14Come to think of it, he still does it.
00:50:16But you never thought about it?
00:50:18I mean, even before you considered yourself related.
00:50:21Oh, no. No way.
00:50:23I mean, he was gross.
00:50:25I mean, when we first met, he was so white trash.
00:50:29He and his dad, they're from the mountains.
00:50:32I'm from Los Gatos.
00:50:34We're just a totally different class of people.
00:50:37Not to sound snobby or anything, but that's just the way it was.
00:50:41And you should have seen his clothes.
00:50:44I mean, so thrift store.
00:50:47And I'm not talking retro-cool thrift store.
00:50:50I'm talking goodwill thrift store.
00:50:52Wrangler.
00:50:53Oh, yeah. Totally dirty.
00:50:55Smelly.
00:50:56Yeah. Stinky.
00:50:57Like this couch.
00:50:59But luckily, under my guidance, he's completely changed.
00:51:04I've washed the white trash completely out of him.
00:51:09Hey, I met a chick. We're going to a strip club.
00:51:11You guys want to go with?
00:51:13So do you get to run around a lot?
00:51:15Are you kidding me?
00:51:17Check this out.
00:51:29Comedy Club.
00:51:31Yeah, can I speak to Brad, please?
00:51:33Uh, hold on a moment.
00:51:35Sir, Mayfield is calling.
00:51:37Yeah, this is Sean Payne.
00:51:39Hold on.
00:51:43Mr. Payne, what's his priority?
00:51:45Yes, I sent him a tape, and I was just calling to check up.
00:51:48Okay. Hold on again.
00:51:52Sir, Mr. Johnson's in a meeting right now.
00:51:55Sir, Mr. Johnson's in a meeting right now.
00:51:58Can I have a return your call, please?
00:52:00No, thanks. I'll just hold.
00:52:02Sir, he's in a meeting. It could be hours.
00:52:05That's fine. I'm on my parents' phone.
00:52:07Hold on.
00:52:12Sir, Mr. Johnson must have stepped out for a moment.
00:52:15I'll need to take that message and have a return your call.
00:52:18Actually, you know what? I'll tell you where you can find him.
00:52:21He's in a fucking meeting.
00:52:23You're never going to work there.
00:52:25I know. I don't even want to work there anymore, man.
00:52:27It's like fucking, you know...
00:52:29Someday I'll work there.
00:52:31He'll be calling me, and I'll work there for triple money.
00:52:34Fucking bastard.
00:52:36So, do you still have to put up with that stuff, too?
00:52:39To a certain extent, yeah.
00:52:41I mean, I can get a lot more recommendations now, but...
00:52:44You know, I mean, unless you're a household name,
00:52:47and you've been on the biggies like Carson or Leno, Letterman,
00:52:51The Mo Show, or you have your own HBO special,
00:52:54and you've still got to prove to them that you're good.
00:52:57I was on the star search of its day.
00:52:59The Ted Mack amateur hour.
00:53:01Oh, yes, lovely.
00:53:03And I, uh, well, I would put on Mother's dress,
00:53:06and, oh, Mother, lovely, lovely person.
00:53:10Wonderful human being.
00:53:12Dare I say, true candidate for sainthood.
00:53:16God bless us all.
00:53:18We have a homeless problem in L.A.,
00:53:21but, uh, you know, a lot of people say it's a homeless problem.
00:53:24I don't like to call it a problem. I, I, I...
00:53:27Hi.
00:53:28Oh, hi.
00:53:29So, uh, I hear you're the, uh,
00:53:31chick who's doing the documentary on Rich?
00:53:34Yeah, yeah, that's me. I'm, I'm a chick.
00:53:37Uh, I, I didn't mean, uh...
00:53:39Oh, no, that's...
00:53:40Todd. Hi, how's it going? I'm Todd Adams.
00:53:42Hi, Cheryl. Nice to meet you.
00:53:44I'm a comic, too. I'm from, uh, Sacramento.
00:53:47Oh, great. Oh, cool. Are you just starting out?
00:53:49Uh, no. No, I'm a pro. I've been doing this years.
00:53:53Yeah, I'm just taking a little time off, you know?
00:53:56I've, uh, gotten a little too much work lately,
00:53:58and, uh, figured, you know...
00:54:00I'm surprised you haven't heard of me.
00:54:02Yeah, I, you know, I do shows all the time.
00:54:05No, I'm, I'm, I'm no comedy aficionado.
00:54:08Well, you know, we can't all be.
00:54:12So, uh...
00:54:14Why Rich?
00:54:16Well, why not, Rich?
00:54:18Is there something wrong with him or something?
00:54:20Well, you know, I mean, you know,
00:54:22you're not really big into originality.
00:54:24He's one of the most original comics I've ever seen.
00:54:27I mean, you know, I think his material's hilarious.
00:54:29Listen, I'm not bagging on him.
00:54:31Okay, he's a buddy of mine.
00:54:33I'm just saying, you know.
00:54:35Most of the jokes, most of the ones
00:54:37that are really working for him, uh,
00:54:39I kind of helped him with.
00:54:41Yeah, I'd say I, uh, I'd say I wrote about half the act.
00:54:43Yeah, the punch lines.
00:54:45Really? Wow.
00:54:47So, so, you're saying that, that,
00:54:49that he stole material from you, or...?
00:54:51Uh, no, I'm not saying stole.
00:54:53I'm just saying, uh,
00:54:55borrowed.
00:54:57Like that, that, uh,
00:54:59that joke right there?
00:55:01Yeah, it was crap
00:55:03before I helped him out with it.
00:55:05He ran up by me, and I, uh, you know,
00:55:07threw him a line or two, and he, uh,
00:55:09he slipped me some chump change for it.
00:55:11Really? Really? Wow.
00:55:14Don't say anything to him.
00:55:16Because a lot of times when a comic buys a joke,
00:55:18you know, they get testy about it.
00:55:20They want everyone to think they wrote it.
00:55:22So, uh,
00:55:24yeah, don't, try not to, uh,
00:55:26bring it up.
00:55:28You know, for riches sake.
00:55:30Yeah, I mean, wow, I don't know what to say.
00:55:32That's, that's, that's interesting.
00:55:34I'd love to see you sometime.
00:55:36Oh, lucky you.
00:55:38I'm coming by tomorrow night.
00:55:40Oh, really?
00:55:42Be here, get ready to get blown away.
00:55:44Okay.
00:55:46Well, it was nice meeting you.
00:55:48Nice meeting you, Todd Adams.
00:55:50Hey, hey,
00:55:52you suck,
00:55:54dick.
00:55:56Uh, excuse me?
00:55:58Sorry, I didn't, I suck dick?
00:56:00Well, sorry,
00:56:02I don't know what your boyfriend told you here,
00:56:04but I've never seen him before.
00:56:06Hey, we're not gay, dude.
00:56:08And I said, you suck,
00:56:11dick?
00:56:13Because dick is short for rich, right?
00:56:15Wasn't that mean?
00:56:19Dick?
00:56:21And my father's name was Dick.
00:56:23And they used to call me Little Dick.
00:56:25My friends used to call,
00:56:27my friends used to call up and my mom would say,
00:56:29oh, do you want to speak to Big Dick or Little Dick?
00:56:31And the other thing,
00:56:33I mean, it's tough like,
00:56:35when, uh, you know,
00:56:37meeting girls, it's tough when your name's Dick.
00:56:39But remember, my last name's Burns.
00:56:41You know, what am I supposed to do?
00:56:43Dick Burns.
00:56:45So, you know, about five years ago
00:56:47we started this, taken off, done pretty well,
00:56:49made a little money, had a lot of fun, right?
00:56:51Hey, aren't you Dre Sims?
00:56:53Host of Hip Hop Comedy Showcase, right?
00:56:55Yes, I am.
00:56:57I'm a huge fan of your show, man.
00:56:59Thank you very much, man. I saw your set.
00:57:01Oh, that's cool, man. I'm such a fan, I swear.
00:57:03I love your show.
00:57:05Oh, really? Oh, cool, man.
00:57:07So what's the deal
00:57:09with this guy Todd Adams?
00:57:11Todd Adams?
00:57:13Yeah. Thank you.
00:57:15Well, he said that you were using his material
00:57:17or you...
00:57:19What? I was using...
00:57:21He said that I was using his material?
00:57:23Well, yeah, I mean, something like that.
00:57:25Like you bought his jokes
00:57:27or you bought his material.
00:57:29I bought my material from Todd Adams.
00:57:31He made a big point of saying it.
00:57:33I was wondering
00:57:36what it takes
00:57:38to get on the show. I'd like to get on the show if I could.
00:57:40You understand that it's a black show?
00:57:42Oh, yeah.
00:57:44And you realize
00:57:46you're white?
00:57:48Yeah, what's the problem?
00:57:50It's a black show
00:57:52like the Apollo, right?
00:57:54Black audiences coming to see
00:57:56black comics.
00:57:58Yeah, but I work black rooms all the time. Black audiences love me.
00:58:00I kick ass in the black rooms.
00:58:02I gotta tell you, man, I've had a few white people on before, man.
00:58:04They suck, man. They don't do very well.
00:58:06Yeah, but I can do it. You know why?
00:58:08Because I'll tell you something.
00:58:10I know no color lines, okay?
00:58:12I don't know no color lines.
00:58:14And I don't even think, to be honest with you,
00:58:16that color has anything to do with pigmentation.
00:58:18Okay, so wait.
00:58:20If color has nothing to do with pigmentation,
00:58:22what is color?
00:58:24It's about what you have to say, man.
00:58:26It's like who you are, what your point is,
00:58:28what's your message to all the people.
00:58:30That's what it's about.
00:58:33So you've been talking to Jared, right?
00:58:35Man, I'm serious, man. I'm totally serious.
00:58:37Look, dude, I can do a good...
00:58:39I can do a black comedy
00:58:41from a white perspective.
00:58:45Black comedy from a white perspective?
00:58:47Yeah, man, I speak Ebonics.
00:58:49Okay, wait. I'll tell you what.
00:58:51I'm gonna give you my card, man.
00:58:53We're having auditions all around the country, you know?
00:58:55We'll be back here in about six months,
00:58:57and I'll get you an audition for next season.
00:58:59Really? For reals?
00:59:01Dude, that's killer, man.
00:59:03That sounds so killer. I'm gonna be in touch.
00:59:05Don't say killer.
00:59:07Word.
00:59:09Word.
00:59:11Thanks, man. I'll call you.
00:59:13Six months. I'll call you.
00:59:15Six months. No sooner.
00:59:17That guy, he opened for me
00:59:19at a one-nighter in Montana.
00:59:21He's been waiting.
00:59:23He's been asking me to take him
00:59:25on the road with me.
00:59:27Shit, he lives here
00:59:29and he can't even get into this club.
00:59:31Well, actually, he said he was gonna be here
00:59:33tomorrow night, and I should totally check out the show.
00:59:35He's doing a guest set?
00:59:37Yeah.
00:59:39No shit.
00:59:41Oh, man. I am gonna give him so much shit.
00:59:43No, you know what? I'm not there yet.
00:59:45I don't even have to.
00:59:47He's gonna hang himself up there.
00:59:49What's that?
00:59:51Talking about Todd Adams.
00:59:53You know him? That guy?
00:59:55Oh, he was at the bar earlier? Not funny, right?
00:59:58Yeah.
01:00:00He told Cheryl that
01:00:02I buy my material from him.
01:00:04Yeah. No way.
01:00:06What a fucking idiot.
01:00:08I know, man. He's doing a guest set here tomorrow night.
01:00:10You gonna beat his ass or what? I'd beat his ass.
01:00:12No, you know what? Let me beat him.
01:00:14Let me do it.
01:00:16Non-funny motherfucker!
01:00:18First, first, first.
01:00:20I'm gonna let him do it with the set.
01:00:22He'll fucking beat his own ass.
01:00:24Did I, uh...
01:00:26I saw you talking to
01:00:28Dre Sims over there. What's that about?
01:00:30Um, I don't know.
01:00:32I was talking to him about, uh,
01:00:34getting auditioned for a hip-hop comedy showcase.
01:00:36Why?
01:00:38What do you mean, why?
01:00:40Dude, have you seen that show?
01:00:42Have you seen the people on that show, dude?
01:00:44Yeah. They all do the same act.
01:00:46Yeah, exactly. And they get the, like, TV show with the ass.
01:00:48I mean, everybody that's been on that
01:00:50is now working in, like, sitcom
01:00:52or movies or something, dude.
01:00:55And that's my calling.
01:00:57Yeah, but, Sean,
01:00:59you forget one minor thing.
01:01:01You're white.
01:01:03They don't like white people on that show.
01:01:05No, dude, that's not true.
01:01:07They just don't relate
01:01:09to what most white comics are talking about.
01:01:11That's the problem.
01:01:13Uh-huh.
01:01:15I'm gonna do a whole different set, okay?
01:01:17I'm gonna do black comedy, all right?
01:01:19From a white perspective.
01:01:21Black comedy from a white perspective.
01:01:23Yeah.
01:01:25And what are you gonna talk about growing up in the hood?
01:01:27You're from Los Gatos, California,
01:01:29vanilla latte.
01:01:31What could you possibly relate to?
01:01:33You said it yourself.
01:01:35They all do the same act, right?
01:01:37All I gotta do is watch some of the tapes,
01:01:39watch the show,
01:01:41then all I gotta do is, like, take all the niggas
01:01:43and change it to, like, crackers or honkies
01:01:45and I'm fucking set.
01:01:47Oh, good luck, man.
01:01:49You got a set of balls on you anyway, I'll tell you that.
01:01:51Maybe it'll work.
01:01:53Damn straight.
01:01:55Dude, I had to tell you.
01:01:57That pot shit
01:01:59was so fucking great.

01:02:50and it's illegal for us to call it a bong.
01:02:52That's why when you go in there
01:02:54they always say it's for tobacco.
01:02:56Really?
01:02:58No shit.
01:03:00Pot's fucking illegal, you know?
01:03:02Really?
01:03:04Thanks, man.
01:03:06Thank you, bro.
01:03:09Dude.
01:03:11Is that thing on, bro?
01:03:13Yeah.
01:03:19Hey, man, can you do like that squiggly thing
01:03:21to my face like on cops?
01:03:23Because if my boss sees this, I'm fucked
01:03:25and if my parole,
01:03:27six months, I have to keep a job.
01:03:29Fuck!
01:03:31I'm out of here!
01:03:33Good luck, bro. You're going places.
01:03:35Thanks, man.
01:03:37So, do you guys always come out to see Rich?
01:03:39Oh, yeah, we come here all the time.
01:03:41And this is the first time we've been here
01:03:43twice in one week, though.
01:03:45This Rich Burns guy is hysterical.
01:03:47We love Dick! Dick rocks!
01:03:49We love Dick!
01:03:51The good news is Jared has decided
01:03:53to give you five minutes of his stage time.
01:03:55Great.
01:03:57You'll be wearing that.
01:03:59Yeah, pretty cool, huh?
01:04:01So, five minutes means you're off the stage
01:04:03by 8.20, not 8.21.
01:04:05Not 8.19, 8.20.
01:04:07Understood?
01:04:09Got it. 8.20. No problem.
01:04:11Are you going to watch my magic?
01:04:13I'll be watching.
01:04:15Cool, because I'm going to kick some ass.
01:04:17Pay attention.
01:04:21Okay. We'll see.
01:04:27Keep going.
01:04:29Yeah, absolutely.
01:04:31So, how's it going, y'all?
01:04:34You doing pretty good?
01:04:36Yeah, good.
01:04:38So, I'm a comic. I'm from Sacramento.
01:04:40The Freshmaker?
01:04:42The Freshmaker?
01:04:44Yeah, all right.
01:04:46So, I've been traveling around
01:04:48quite a bit, you know,
01:04:50trying to watch a little TV,
01:04:52a little bit of the Yan Can Cook.
01:04:54What's the deal with that, motherfucker?
01:04:56Anyway.
01:04:58Dude, he's got like five minutes.
01:05:00When's he going to get to his set?
01:05:02This is his set.
01:05:04You know what I'm talking about, mister, right?
01:05:06Yeah, he knows.
01:05:08So, I'm taking a shit, right?
01:05:10And it's not one of the nice, chunky ones,
01:05:12one of the easy ones that
01:05:14you're going to use less than half a roll.
01:05:16I'm talking about a wet one.
01:05:18You know, where it's like going down
01:05:20and splashing on my butt.
01:05:22You know, sir, yeah, you feel me on that.
01:05:24My dad, ladies and gentlemen.
01:05:26I specifically told him
01:05:28five minutes.
01:05:31Five minutes.
01:05:33And I've been giving him the light now
01:05:35for like two minutes.
01:05:37That's seven minutes.
01:05:39You know what it is?
01:05:41He's inconsiderate.
01:05:43He is oblivious to his actions
01:05:45and he's inconsiderate.
01:05:47That is intolerable.
01:05:49You ever drink
01:05:51and you wake up the next day
01:05:53with injuries, you know,
01:05:55like a broken hand from beating your kids?
01:05:57Beat your kids
01:05:59is what I'm getting at.
01:06:01You know what I'm saying?
01:06:03Be a lot less trouble in the world
01:06:05if people just keep the spanking going.
01:06:07And I'm not just talking about me and the neighbor.
01:06:09You off!
01:06:11You off!
01:06:13Oh, this.
01:06:15He is never going to work
01:06:17in my club again.
01:06:19I specifically told him five minutes.
01:06:21What is it?
01:06:23Ten minutes!
01:06:25I've told him already.
01:06:27Light him.
01:06:29So, uh, this is
01:06:31Dirty Socky's impression of Jack Nicholson.
01:06:33Okay, everybody ready?
01:06:35Dirty Socky doing
01:06:37Jack Nicholson.
01:06:39You know who Jack Nicholson is, sir?
01:06:41Yeah. Okay, well, here we go.
01:06:43Here's Socky!
01:06:45Here's Socky!
01:06:47Socky!
01:06:49Get him off my stage.
01:06:51Get him off Jared's stage.
01:06:53Don't you have an emcee for this or what?
01:06:56Here's Socky doing an impression
01:06:58of... I have him
01:07:00on a very important project. He cannot be
01:07:02interrupted right now.
01:07:04I don't care what you say.
01:07:06Just get him off the friggin' stage, okay?
01:07:08Alright, come on. Go.
01:07:10Alright.
01:07:12So, uh, yeah. How about a hand for your weight
01:07:14staff, everybody? Are your weight staff
01:07:16working? Yeah, I'll tell you
01:07:18something. One of these girls is going to have a
01:07:20kid. I've decided.
01:07:22Plenty of time.
01:07:24So, uh,
01:07:26I travel around the country a lot.
01:07:28Been over to Wyoming.
01:07:30Boy, those people are stupid.
01:07:32I, uh,
01:07:34I was thinking about... Hey, Todd Adams, ladies and gentlemen.
01:07:36Give it up for Todd. Let's hear it for Todd.
01:07:38Yeah, how about it for me? Yeah, everybody.
01:07:40Hey, what do you think? So, uh...
01:07:42So how about those Asian drivers,
01:07:44huh? Hey, Jesus Christo,
01:07:46if I see another slanny in my rearview,
01:07:48people, you know who I'm talking about?
01:07:51You know who I'm talking about?
01:07:53You know, they're always there.
01:07:55Hey, so folks, thanks a lot. I'm Todd Adams.
01:07:57Tip your weights.
01:07:59Whoa, whoa. Hey.
01:08:01What the hell was that?
01:08:03What was what? What the fuck are you
01:08:05doing up there? I said five minutes.
01:08:07Did I say five minutes?
01:08:09You said five minutes. See? I said five minutes.
01:08:11And you did ten minutes. I had to have your ass dragged
01:08:13off the friggin' stage. What the fuck are you doing?
01:08:15Well, I figured, you know, since I was killing...
01:08:17You were killing? You were killing?
01:08:19You were killing me. What audience were you
01:08:21performing in front of? You were killing my business.
01:08:23Look, pal, when I say five minutes,
01:08:25I mean five minutes.
01:08:27Five minutes. Period.
01:08:29You're never gonna work here.
01:08:31Ever. I never want to see you in my club again.
01:08:33Now get the fuck out of here.
01:08:37Hey, the door's that way.
01:08:39I gotta get my stuff
01:08:41out of the green room. Oh, you gotta get your stuff.
01:08:43Hey, I tell you what.
01:08:45I'll give you five minutes.
01:08:47Can you do five minutes?
01:08:49That'd be really good.
01:08:51Come on. I tell you what. I'll give you a light at four.
01:08:53See, I still got the light. See?
01:08:55Can you see it now? Is it close enough?
01:08:57What do you think I was trying to do? Land a fuckin' plane?
01:09:03Hey, buddy. That was a nice set.
01:09:05Hey, thanks, man.
01:09:07Hey, you know that joke about Yen Can Cook?
01:09:09Can I buy that outfit?
01:09:13So did you get paid?
01:09:16Yeah.
01:09:20What time's the plane
01:09:22taking off tomorrow?
01:09:24Early.
01:09:26Like 8 o'clock, I think.
01:09:28I gotta check when I get back to the condo.
01:09:30You gonna need a ride back to the airport or something?
01:09:32Because I'm taking off early in the morning, so
01:09:34if you need a ride, I'll take you.
01:09:36No, I think so. But Jared said
01:09:38he'd give me a ride. Oh, really?
01:09:40Oh, that's cool.
01:09:42Yeah, I'm thinking about...
01:09:44What are you gonna do? You gonna hang out
01:09:46or are you going back to the condo right now?
01:09:48I think I'm gonna bail.
01:09:50Oh, really?
01:09:52I think I'm gonna get packed
01:09:54and go to bed.
01:09:56Oh, that's cool.
01:09:58I'm thinking about
01:10:00hanging out for a little while.
01:10:02Oh, yeah?
01:10:04Blow my check, something like that.
01:10:06Have fun.
01:10:08Hey, I was gonna ask you.
01:10:10Did Jared give you a week back here already?
01:10:13He told me to call him next week.
01:10:15Oh, really? Yeah, he loves me now.
01:10:17Oh, really? That's cool.
01:10:19He said he's gonna put a call in to his friend at the mo-show.
01:10:21Oh, really? Does he actually know people at the mo-show?
01:10:23I don't know, that's what he says.
01:10:25Find out.
01:10:27Well, good luck with that, man. I hope that goes for you.
01:10:29Thanks, man. Give me a call when you get back.
01:10:31I will.
01:10:33Thank you. Thanks again.
01:10:35Hey, you two
01:10:37drive home safely, okay?
01:10:39Okay. Bye.
01:10:41All right, buddy.
01:10:43So, uh...
01:10:45So, uh...
01:10:47What do you think of me now, you know?
01:10:49Funny?
01:10:51Interesting? Stimulating?
01:10:53Yeah.
01:10:55But you still don't have a chance.
01:10:59I figured, you know. What the hell, right?
01:11:01I mean, probably the last time I'm gonna see you, right,
01:11:03I might as well at least try.
01:11:05I probably would have been strangely disappointed if you hadn't, so...
01:11:07Well, then, in that case, how about, you know,
01:11:09like, a good-bye hug, something like that?
01:11:11Oh, God, no, no. Your sister.
01:11:13She might be jealous.
01:11:15Oh, really?
01:11:17Yeah.
01:11:19I kind of knew she'd like me. What'd she say?
01:11:21So, how are things since I last saw you?
01:11:23Good. Good.
01:11:25I got a spot on the mo-show.
01:11:27You did? Oh, my God, congratulations.
01:11:29So, when is it happening?
01:11:31Um, two weeks from Thursday.
01:11:33I'll be there.
01:11:35Thanks, you guys, but wait, there's more.
01:11:38Kate Moss clothes-hanging right there.
01:11:40That's right, I found this floating out in the ocean out there.
01:11:42You know what kind of wood that is right there, sir, right there?
01:11:44What kind of wood? It's a Natalie wood.
01:11:46So, speaking of Sean,
01:11:48have you seen or heard from him since Sacramento?
01:11:50Uh, yeah.
01:11:52Actually, he called me yesterday.
01:11:54He's gonna be back up at Jared's next week
01:11:56for the comedy hip-hop
01:11:58showcase audition. Wow.

01:12:36Because we ain't got that big shit that y'all got,
01:12:38you know what I mean? So we gotta stay in there

01:12:42And you know we invented oral sex, too, right?

01:14:02at a club in Hollywood.
01:14:04I don't remember the name of the club, though.
01:14:06Oh, really?
01:14:08Well, I guess I must have left a pretty good impression
01:14:10on you then.
01:14:12Actually, you did.
01:14:14Thanks. Thanks, Mel. Yeah, I've been working hard.
01:14:16Well, how long have you been doing comedy?
01:14:20Just, like, three minutes.
01:14:22That's okay.
01:14:24No, I mean, in your entire career thus far.
01:14:26Oh.
01:14:28Like ten years or so.
01:14:30Ten years? Yeah.
01:14:32Well, you know what they say.
01:14:34There's no such thing as an overnight success.
01:14:36So, you still enjoy doing the road,

01:14:58Well, you do a fine job at it.
01:15:00And please, keep it up.
01:15:02Thanks, Mel. Thanks.
01:15:04Ladies and gentlemen, Rich Byrne.
01:15:06So there you have it.
01:15:08The life of a stand-up comic.
01:15:10Some may end up on the road for life.
01:15:12For some, that road leads to mega stardom.
01:15:14Others may eventually turn off the road,
01:15:16and some may never find the road at all,
01:15:18but for those who truly love what they do,
01:15:20there is no better life.

01:17:21I think he's brilliant.
01:17:23Oh.
01:17:23I think he has a wonderful stage presence.
01:17:26And I also think he has a warmth and a charisma
01:17:29that it's just unstoppable.
01:17:32God, what would you know about charisma?
01:17:36You know, he's not even a handsome man-child.
01:17:39He's got the teeth of Thai power,
01:17:42and, well, what do you know?
01:17:46You have no taste.
01:17:48Obviously.
01:17:49Look at what I crawl into next to every night.
01:17:51Oh, please.
01:17:53I was the one who took you in.
01:17:55I had a thing for a wounded animal.
01:18:02You.
01:18:03This coming from a man that has nothing about show business.
01:18:05What do you know about show business?
01:18:06Nothing.
01:18:07You know nothing about show business.
01:18:08I thought La Cage Aux Folles was a documentary.
01:18:12You goddamn festering old snatch.
01:18:16Well, goddamn.
01:18:17Well, to you.
01:18:20Stop your camera.
01:18:21I'm finished.
01:18:25Over.
