That's where Ricky Novella, our gut-bustingly hilarious guest, comes in. He takes us on a whirlwind tour of the comedy landscape, from the raw intensity of open mics to the sweet victory of a well-received joke. Ricky doesn't hold back, offering a glimpse into the trials and tribulations that come with the quest for the perfect punchline.
Comedy isn't just about the laughs; it's a mirror reflecting our culture, beliefs, and personal journeys. Ricky and I dissect the craft, sharing tales of family support that range from skeptical raised eyebrows to unexpected cheerleading. We reveal the gritty advice from comedy vets like Joey Diaz and the influences of comedy legends that shape the punchlines we deliver. Laugh along with us as we recount stories that prove life's twists make the best material, and how resilience is the key to finding your unique comedic voice amidst the noise.

We even venture into the realm of podcasting, giving shoutouts to the up-and-comers in the comedy scene who are as relentless in their pursuit of the next great laugh as we are.

I like that because today we have Ricky Novia and later this week we're going to have Johnny Gold. So I'm completely excited for that. But before we get into today's episode, I believe we do have a migrito weekly, which Amber is going to go ahead and take over. So what do we got in the world of migrito.

Speaker 2:So it's them, and then also 3LH, that are getting ready for a drop on their music video. Also, and all those bands are part of the migrito music. Are they a network too? I think so. Music label, let's just say that, like the mind buzz, we are part of the migrito podcast network, along with emo brown Chicano shuffle let's see what a West Coast Pop Block podcast and Thalagos Amagos I hope I'm not forgetting anybody, right, I think?

Speaker 2:Everybody right.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Other than that, let's get into our guest today. He's a very good friend of mine. We've done a couple of comedy shows together, we've done comedy competition together and he's out there. He's doing this thing. Very funny guy. I think he's funny and you guys are going to love him too. Ricky Novia. What is up, man? Thanks for being here. I appreciate it, dude.
Speaker 3:What's up, what's up, thank you.
Speaker 2:Thanks, man, for coming out and doing this.
Speaker 3:Dude, it's my pleasure the fact that you said that I'm funny to you. That beats everybody's compliment right there.
Speaker 1:I don't know what that means a lot.
Speaker 2:Thank you, appreciate it. Yeah, dude, like I said, we did a few comedy shows together. We've done open mics together. That's pretty much how we started being around each other, rubbing shoulders together, rubbing our comedy shoulders together, it's kind of hot, though you put it on yourself, I know, trying to sexualize everything.
Speaker 3:It's nice. It's fine. Don't threaten me with a good time.
Speaker 2:Holding each other's comedy shoulders, belly to belly, yeah, but I mean there's that. That's where I got my start at the Beertug open mic. That's where I remember seeing you for the first. I was going through my pictures the other day and I was going through all the open mic pictures and I was like oh shit, that's Ricky. I don't remember taking that picture, but I guess I was there for that day. We did the West Coast Pop-Lock podcast together.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that was fun, too, that was fun.
Speaker 2:For the Soy Funny competition One that you did right? I think so. I don't know how Me and all my Indian bots that I paid for for that night.
Speaker 3:Win is a win Sponsored by.
Speaker 1:MindBuzz, it was just me with all my accounts.
Speaker 2:You pan the video to a place in India and everybody just has MindBuzz merch on.
Speaker 3:They have a shaved head with glasses on.
Speaker 2:Yeah, like a little colt. So we did that, we did the podcast, the competition, we did a show at the secret, this private suite. Yeah, private suite and Pico Rivera Shout out to Sergio and from there dude, we just been talking, invited you on the podcast. We recently did a show in Pasadena. That was really good.
Speaker 3:You murder, dude, Like you Pasadena, you mean on Tom Fullerton.
Speaker 2:Fullerton, whatever Pasadena, fullerton, it's all the same thing, it's pretty far.
Speaker 3:I said Pasadena, yeah, you just sit down, it's cool. It's cool, it's your podcast.
Speaker 2:I am. What am I? What's manifesting the Ice House? I think that's what you said Pasadena.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we should definitely manifest it.
Speaker 2:We did that show in Fullerton with Sharkisha. I can't I. What's your name?
Speaker 3:What's your real name, stephanie, it's Stephanie right, yeah, but Sharkisha just fits it just fits.
Speaker 2:Have you seen that video? You know where that's from? Yeah, sharkisha, don't. No, sharkisha don't kick it Kick it Sharkisha.
Speaker 3:Oh, the good old days.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the vine days, but we did that show and it was awesome. You fucking you murdered bro. Like it was the crowd was awesome, but you fucking murdered. Thank you, man.
Speaker 3:Thank you. Honestly. I think that was probably my best since I've done comedy, and it's just. I was just having fun up there. Honestly, it just felt really nice, especially the crowd. The crowd was loving some of the crowd work that I did that night and I usually don't do crowd work. I didn't stick to my material. That's it. But it was just that that girl's titties that were almost popping out. You know what I'm saying. Yeah, I had to point it out, you know.
Speaker 1:And then the guy too right, he told them about his shorts.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, that was towards the end. Yeah, but that guy honestly pointing him out, shout out to the gay community, pointing him out killed the show though, like if it wasn't for him, I don't know, I don't even think that Joko would have hit as well, but he killed it for me, so yeah.
Speaker 1:You did a really good job. We went home that night and we were talking about it and we're like man, you did really good, because I've seen you a couple of times and you do a good job. You did a really good job, but I think that night you did like really good job. Everyone was cracking up you know, you included the people in the crowd and then they were having a good time. You did honestly. You were the best one that night.
Speaker 3:Thank you Appreciate that. I don't know if you guys saw, but I almost fell back with the mic. No, I was on the court, but I played it off pretty well when dancing on the stage. That was a good night, dude.
Speaker 2:It was really good.
Speaker 3:The thing about. I think the thing that helped me the most is because I've been there. So, I've gotten like that story that I told about my friend hooking me up with her friend, like it was true, like I got fucked up. Then I was like freshly single, was ready to mingle or whatever the fuck, but it was just I fell at home so I felt like I had to give a good show, you know got you.
Speaker 2:I've only been there once and that was to see a band, but it wasn't on that stage, it was on the room on the other side. Have you been to that room? It's just like a dance.
Speaker 3:I've seen it, but I don't think I've been in there. I've been just in the main room where the show happened.
Speaker 2:I didn't even know that there was a stage right there, because they usually have the curtain like over. I didn't know there was a stage right there. I thought we were going to be performing in the other room.
Speaker 3:I thought so too. Yeah, I really did. It was a good night. Yeah, it was really fun. That was a great way to end the year. To be honest, was it a Friday?
Speaker 2:night or a Thursday night.
Speaker 3:Thursday night.
Speaker 2:It was a Thursday night, and that was when most people were off too, during the holidays.
Speaker 3:Was? I think it was like a week before it was after Christmas. Yeah, it was New Year's. Like weekend leading up to New Year's.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I forgot, but Stephanie had good support because she knew a lot of the people that were there and that she brought out. And I think, like when people and I think I've said it a lot of times that when people know that they're going to a comedy show, they're more excited and they're more focused on the comedy and laughing and things like that, versus it being like oh surprise, there's a comedy show happening.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, that's true, she did. Yeah, she did bring out a lot of people. One of my old managers was fucking there. I was like what the fuck?
Speaker 2:are you doing Really?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I was like what the fuck I think that might have. She might have been cousins with him, I don't know.
Speaker 1:I think you're like surprised at the company.
Speaker 3:Yeah, he was like my fucking comedian. I was like yeah, you know shit.
Speaker 2:Damn dude. Did you see the three gentlemen that were in the corner talking? So okay, I was going to point it out at that time, but I was just like I'll just let it go because it's going to. I'm not very good at crowd work, so I don't yet. So I don't think I should say anything, but I was waiting at the bar. I don't even think I told you, amber, I was waiting at the bar when.
Speaker 2:Why it took me such a long time is because I was just standing there and I wasn't like. You know, like some bars are like LA traffic, you have to like throw yourself at the bartender. I wasn't. I wasn't doing that. I was just standing there waiting in line. But those three guys that interrupted, that were talking during maybe like the first three minutes, first five minutes of my set, were on the corner and they were talking. But there was those three guys that like cut in front of me at the bar and didn't say shit. They didn't say anything. So they cut in front of me at the bar, which was like all right, I'm going to let it go. I got to go on right now, so I'm just going to let it go.
Speaker 2:And then during what joke was it? It was during the first joke, first joke, that I was on stage telling they were talking and they met like it wasn't their fault. They were talking. I mean, I shouldn't have let that bother me, but I don't know. They were just talking in front of my set. I was going to, I was going to say something, but I was just like you know what I'm going to. Let it go.
Speaker 1:But I was sitting on their side in front of them.
Speaker 2:They're really loud.
Speaker 1:The entire time. Jose right, Is the guy the UPS or the mailman?
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, hatchman Jose.
Speaker 1:Yeah, Shout out. I was like throughout his entire set and I kept turning, like maybe if I turn and I look at them that they're like, oh, shoot, you know. And then someone else turned around and looked at them too and they were having a full on conversation or something about traveling, about this, about that.
Speaker 1:It wasn't like, oh, let me communicate to you what I want for my drink, or oh, let me tell you, you know, like something quick. It was like full on conversation, so I thought that was really rude. But what would I say?
Speaker 3:you know that he was just like yeah, I mean when he started his set it sucked because remember like the mic went out on him.
Speaker 1:Oh, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:But like he would when he switched the mics, like he was able to save the show. I think like if he, if they would have kept that same mic and Jose couldn't like save us, it would have been hard for us. Yeah, because you know, especially being the first one going up, like it's tough. It's tough opening up.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I probably would have hung myself in front of everybody.
Speaker 3:I would have been there with you. But no, but the thing is like, like you're right, like if you're going to go see comedy, like I tell my people, like whenever I have to bring people to shows and stuff, I always tell them keep the chatter to a minimum, be respectful. If you guys don't like his, like a comics, like like material and stuff, just stay quiet.
Speaker 3:You know, you don't have to laugh, you don't have to fake life, just stay quiet. But be respectful, because it's hard to be up there doing like it takes balls to be a comic and talking in front of all those people. That's why, like when people start like starting off and stuff like, I always try to give them the respect because like they might not be good at that moment but you never know down the line like they could start killing. But you got to appreciate that. The fact that they're up there, true, yeah.
Speaker 2:I guess you can. You can see it that way. I mean, for a comedy show that you're going to go see, like you, there's different expectations for that versus going to an open mic.
Speaker 1:Yeah, like, like. Look at the but even an open mic. Look at like the time we went to the one in Long Beach and the girls were sitting. So there was a group of girls and they were. They were sitting like, like, pretty much like in the main, oh you got to go there, dude.
Speaker 2:You got to go to that place.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's a good place Everyone's there.
Speaker 1:It's, it's really respectful, it's nice. We've been there before. So then there's these girls and they're they're in a group and they're like in the biggest table inside the establishment. So the first act goes up and it's like a musical act and the girl is talking and she's talking louder and louder and louder because she can't hear herself over the music and then her friends can't hear her over the music, so her only solution is to talk louder. And she's talking about like Amazon and oh, my Amazon package didn't get here.
Speaker 2:Something dumb. It was just something that's really.
Speaker 1:Again, it was something that that you, you know at that moment take time between, maybe, when the acts are coming up, if you need to say something or whatever like you already know? You know what? Maybe they were here eating and they didn't know there was a comedy show happening and they're trying to have a good time. They haven't seen each other, whatever, I try to give it the benefit of the doubt. Well, come to realize she was going to be in the open mic.
Speaker 3:Oh my God, that's the worst she was performing.
Speaker 1:That's the worst it was her first performance, so maybe she doesn't know. Like etiquette, like proper etiquette, but I was like you're going to perform and you you can't even give the other performers respect. Like to me. I thought it was overly like no respect.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I think that's very disrespectful. I don't know, even if you don't want to listen to it.
Speaker 2:It was like Ronnie Danger filled no respect Like in no respect at all.
Speaker 3:They could have stepped out. I think that's like a one thing too, If you don't want to be there for other people's stuff just step out or just shut up. You don't have to ruin everybody else's set. Especially, those are the hard ones too. When it's like an open mic, where it's like, literally, where it's a mix of poetry, music and then comedy, the energy of the room can be different at any moment.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess that's true. I mean I've hosted them. I've never really gone to any of those myself.
Speaker 3:I'm going to give you your flowers on that too, because you give a different format, especially like the interview at the end. But I think you kind of make it clear people are here to practice their art, whether it be that one guy that was doing his tricks and stuff, oh, yeah. Wildcat Jackson.
Speaker 2:Coming back to you, live Paramount California.
Speaker 1:About where we have it, and the fact that we've established it like that is that the people coming out to watch the show are not just open micers. They're people coming out to actually watch a show To see art. And they also know that it's a lot of people's first time, that it's some people's hobbies. It's exciting and people are very respectful and we always try to open the show with hey. You know, please be as respectful as possible. This is a safe space. Just enjoy and have an open mind.
Speaker 3:Yeah, because, like the first open mic that I did, it was at the Copper House Blues, that's in Brea, and I got to give a shout out to Gage Johnson. He was the one that was hosting it. He was there for my first open mic and he did that If people were talking stuff he would like, I guess, keep it down or you guys go outside. He was very good at making sure that whoever's performing up there was able to feel comfortable up there. Because that's for my first open mic. He really made it easier for me to perform. I wasn't as nervous, you know.
Speaker 2:Because of that extra comments and trying to make you feel comfortable to go up there.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I had told him hey, I don't even know what I'm doing here, this is my first open mic and he was just like do you have material? I was like no, I just have some stuff I want to talk about. He was like okay, just go up there and have fun, don't worry about anything else, I got it under control and stuff. I still remember that. His words from that day is always have fun up there.
Speaker 1:That's good, I like that. I like that type of vibe.
Speaker 3:Because that second open mic I fucking bombed right up Bag of dicks in that fucking open mic. Hell yeah, that's the time I was telling you that I had smoked a little bit before going I was like, oh, you took a hit, bro, it probably relaxes you, hell. No, my anxiety was fucking through the roof on that night, dude, it was fucking horrible.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't understand that. I mean, we've talked about it before, about how obliterated some people get before going on stage. I'm going to say, yeah, I used to get really buzzed before going up, but now it's just like I don't. I want to be sharp.
Speaker 3:Yeah, you got to have a balance to it, because there was one time where I almost got fucked up too and I was like you know what? I should just slow it down. I started drinking water Because if you're really fucked, I mean, it works for some people, but me personally, I try to be, like you said, coherent when it comes to it, the private sweet spots that we.
Speaker 2:I was buzzed, I was drunk on that day. I'm going to just be totally honest and I think I was honest a few weeks ago. I think that was the last time. I ever drank before going on stage. But you learned though.
Speaker 3:You needed that. You need to do this different experience. That's why I don't smoke weed before, and if I do it, maybe one or two hits, I usually have just one whisk or two whiskies, but nothing to get me fucked up. I don't want to be that guy that gets known like he bombed because he was too fucked up. So yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2:It gives you a perspective of like ah, he has to do better now because he's sober. If he doesn't do sober, then he can't blame it on the drink, you know what I mean? Yeah, that's true, that's true, so there's a balance. You pretend like you're drunk. I would just say, if you bombed, you're like ah, I'm drunk.
Speaker 3:I think if you acknowledge that you, the crowd, when you say a bad joke or like saying like a joke that you're working on and doesn't get a laugh, and if you acknowledge that, okay, it wasn't funny, like you know, it was a shit joke, Like the crowd will kind of like, alright, you know he's a human, he makes mistakes. They'll be more on your side than ignoring it or being like fuck you guys, like it's you guys that are making me not understanding the jokes, you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the last time I went to Noble was last Saturday. I think it was last Saturday that they had to open mic and it was all new material, dude. And I think I was telling Jay this that I was just, it was just bad, it was all new material. I got a couple laughs that I was like okay, let me move on to the next open mic to see if these are pretty funny. But that one was challenging dude.
Speaker 3:Yeah, Noble Hills is a pretty cool spot. I like doing all my new material there because it's either like a room full of comics and sometimes random people, but like I don't know, I feel more comfortable doing my new stuff there, Even though you should be doing your new stuff like every open mic, trying to like figure it out and stuff. But for sure, Noble Hills is like a place uncomfortable to do it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, have you ever gotten to where, like, you've done the mics and now you're like, okay, like I've done these different mics, now with the same material, now I have to bring out new material?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I've gotten to that point For me, because it's kind of hard to like come up with new stuff, Like when I try to sit down and write things like I sometimes just like blank out and I can't think of anything. Sometimes new material comes up on the fly or I have just an idea.
Speaker 3:Right, I don't know, just talk about on stage. But there was one point where I did feel like I need to come up with new stuff. But I ended up branching out two different open mics. So I started traveling more to LA doing the mics out in LA and it kind of made me get my jokes a little bit better. But I would suggest that, like because someone feels like they're doing their same jokes over and over again at the same mic, branch out to a different one. Yeah, oh, yeah.
Speaker 2:That's what I did with with Noble, and it was awesome because I was like, okay, like they're still funny. Yeah yeah, but it's just. I needed a change of location.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and it's because, like like okay, I'm, I'm still freshly new, you know, I'm only like a year and five months in but like I kept hearing everybody's same jokes, like people were hearing my same jokes again. So I was just kind of like I need to go to a different place, or have it been to, because you kind of validate if your jokes are funny or not, because people hear your same jokes like there's, they're not going to laugh, you know because there's an element of surprise in every joke.
Speaker 2:whether you just think about any joke that you've ever heard in your life, there's an element of surprise in that. And once that element of surprise is wasted or not wasted, but gone like it's not funny anymore because you already know where the joke is going to- go yeah, especially if you like say it the same way. Yeah, oh, they're like okay, I'm no way for this. Yeah, this guy.
Speaker 3:I mean, you can have a chance at people laughing if you kind of like, try to find a different approach to it, but that's tough.
Speaker 2:That happened at the private suite, which was pretty cool. I'm just going to say that what?
Speaker 3:joke was it.
Speaker 2:I think it was the I'm trying to remember, oh, the the only fans joke that I have and I set it up and I heard somebody in the audience say the punchline and or mumbled it, and I I heard them and I seen them mouth the punchline. I was like okay, that's cool, but also like not cool at the same time, it was kind of cool because oh, somebody, they remembered it.
Speaker 2:So that's awesome. For me that's awesome. They probably seen the West Coast Pop Lock podcast and they probably heard it on there and they're like, oh cool, like I'm going to hear this guy say it again. Yeah, most likely, but for them to remember the punchline, that was an awesome moment because they remembered it and you become rememberable because of that.
Speaker 3:Yeah, people remember me a lot from my BYOB joke. That's one of my personal favorites.
Speaker 2:I'm going to be honest.
Speaker 3:Thicky. Everybody calls me thick. A lot of people call me thick, thicky, and it's just I know. I think, like I said, it is cool that they remember you by that but. I mean, sometimes I don't want to be remembered by my buttplug joke, but it happens.
Speaker 1:You said that. One out for yourself.
Speaker 3:I know, but I love it though.
Speaker 2:But the cool thing is about this is that you have a wide range of what you're going to do next. Right, yeah, there's going to be a joke that you're going to write that's going to replace the buttplug one.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, that's true. The buttplug one that's my moneymaker.
Speaker 2:No, but I totally get what you're saying, because I don't want to be doing the Selena joke for the next 10 years. I want something. I want to write something that's way better than that and it's going to happen over experience and doing it, and doing it, and doing it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that joke, like the new tag that you put on it. When I heard I was like, oh, a fucking gilly dude. It's funny. But I'm like either one superfan is going to be so fucking pissed that you said a joke. It's cool to be able to push those buttons.
Speaker 2:That tag was the first time I used it.
Speaker 3:And it was good, it was really good.
Speaker 2:That was the first time I practiced it in my head. On the way over there I'm like, okay, I'm going to try this.
Speaker 1:I already cringe off the Selena one, Because I'm already like all right.
Speaker 2:No, I did.
Speaker 1:Here are the booze coming, and then he, freaking, did it and I was like no I even looked at you and I went like that.
Speaker 2:I told you. You remember, because Amber is my joke filter. You remember you telling me. Yeah, I told you, Amber, I have a new tag for this.
Speaker 1:Oh, but you didn't tell me you were going to do it that night.
Speaker 2:I didn't tell her I wasn't doing it.
Speaker 1:That's right.
Speaker 3:Sometimes you got to throw it in there.
Speaker 2:You got to throw it in there and then I like it because when I hear her she says no, don't do it. In my mind.
Speaker 3:Do it. Do it cocksucker? Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1:You know why I'm hesitant towards some of his jokes or whatever, like pushing the envelope. It's not because I don't believe in them. It's not because I'm like, all right, you're going to piss someone off, because I feel like I'm going to be sitting in the audience one day and someone's going to say like, oh, this jackass, or something that's it. And I'm going to turn around and I'm going to, I'm going to react, I've been called worse on the internet.
Speaker 1:But it's not you, yeah, but not in my. I haven't been in the vicinity, so what? My thing is not what you say or what you're, but my reaction towards someone saying and I shouldn't manifest that, I shouldn't, you know, go there thinking awesome is going to talk crap and I'm going to have to react like I shouldn't, but that's, I don't know. Maybe it's just my fight or flight mode.
Speaker 3:Well, the good thing is they have a bodyguard each time you go out to church. She's not exactly I'm going to need one.
Speaker 2:I'm going to need one by the end of this year. So if anybody out there is looking for a cool job that doesn't pay well, volunteer security I'm your guy. Well, pay you in food and pay you on food and jokes Food is, food is fucking great Food and jokes, dude.
Speaker 2:I remember the first time we did an event for the podcast and we needed a security guard and I booked my cousin that he's an X Marine, oh shit, and I booked them cool guy. But he was the drunkest out of everybody in that place, dude. Like he was really drunk, he had a bigger cut. I don't even know where he got. It was like an A&PM cup of beer.
Speaker 3:I have no clue where he got this. He was about to escort him to the hotel.
Speaker 1:Yeah, he's all kicking himself out.
Speaker 3:You're too drunk, sir.
Speaker 2:He's like, hey, you gotta go, you're too drunk. We had to drive him home, we had to escort him home, making sure he got home okay.
Speaker 3:That's crazy. That's a great story though.
Speaker 2:Should we?
Speaker 3:talk about what do a joke on that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I guess he is my cousin. I do a lot of family stuff. Yeah, that's a.
Speaker 1:Wait, so can I tell you the. Jackson, or what was it.
Speaker 2:Jackson, Flax and Caxon.
Speaker 1:The Wildcat? Well, not you, you know it but. Ricky Myour finding of the night of him. Can I tell you, yeah, yeah, because I've been dying to tell you. So, just to give our listeners context, we had an open mic in December.
Speaker 2:December December.
Speaker 1:We had an open mic. We really never know who's gonna show up. People sign up, but we really don't know what it's about. So this man comes in and he is dressed like what do you guys say?
Speaker 3:Like A farm, not Spare Farm.
Speaker 1:Yeah that's a good one You're right Like a gold rush, not Spare Farm. He walks in and the show's not started.
Speaker 2:We're just like sitting there and he walks in and I was like Just imagine, doc, from Back to the Future.
Speaker 1:Part 3.
Speaker 2:But inOh is he ininin that type of In the western.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, like unhinged, like, very like, he was pointing out like people's food. What are you eating? He asked me.
Speaker 2:He was great.
Speaker 1:He told my aunt like oh, you're very beautiful.
Speaker 1:And my uncle was like sitting next to her, like we're like okay. And then I guess I didn't know this, but he had told Gil beforehand hey, can I take my replica gun? Right, I didn't know this. So then, gilat the day of the show, gil comes up to me and I'm behind the counter and I'm helping some customers and he's like, hey, the guy has a replica gun and he wants to know if he can take it out. And I'm like, no like, because I already had seen how he was acting, like.
Speaker 1:He was like pacing back and forth, back and forth and talking to people and I was like, man, this is going to be crazy. So I I saw the gun and then I saw my dad look at the gun and my dad was like, oh, this is cool. So I said, okay, if my dad looks at the gun, it must not be a real gun, right? Because in my head I was like this man's going to shoot us with this fake gun quotations. So, anyways, to make a long story short, he goes on, right, performs he did. He was so cool, right? Am I the only one that thought he was cool?
Speaker 3:He was great. Yeah, he was pretty impressive. I'm not going to lie Like I definitely see why you were worried like a little bit.
Speaker 2:He was unhinged. He didn't know what to expect.
Speaker 1:Yeah. So anyways, he does his set, everything. The show ends and then he leaves because he had like a bag. So he had like a bag. You know where he had all his stuff. So we seen the bag on the on the seat and we're like wait, did this guy leave? And then I'm like I didn't see him walk out and everyone's like, well, I didn't see him walk out either. And then somebody went to the restroom and they're like, well, we didn't see him in the restroom either. So I'm like that's fucking weird. So then I see the mayor of Paramount come. She had come in like a mid show. So we know the mayor, like you know he comes to our events and stuff.
Speaker 1:So she was there, she was at the open mic and I'm like, okay, the mayor's there. And then I'm like, oh, her boyfriend's there with her right. I'm like wait where should we be? Not her boyfriend, her friend, sorry.
Speaker 3:Well, I can't edit it out now.
Speaker 1:Her friend, her acquaintance. But then I said wait, how did that guy get in here? I was like I didn't see him walk in with her Welcome. To know it was the Wildcat Jackson man.
Speaker 3:What the fuck.
Speaker 4:That's crazy.
Speaker 1:So he it was him the whole time and we didn't know. So he came out after in without his costume and then he's like, yeah, it was me, didn't you know? And we're like, no, we didn't know, we didn't know. A beard, everything he even put like a pillow to make himself have like a panza. He didn't have a panza.
Speaker 2:Really yeah. And then to know that he's with the mayor.
Speaker 1:I was like what the heck? And then I told the mayor I was like you know he does this. And she's like yeah.
Speaker 2:It's gonna be a good show, dude, it's gonna be I think that's why you know it's gonna be a while the mayor was attracted to Wildcat Jackson. She's into dangerous stuff, she's into comedy or danger.
Speaker 1:I don't know, but that was it that we, we were all shocked at the end of the night that it was him.
Speaker 3:Yeah, like you have to. You have to see him like he's a very good entertainer and just very quick with jokes Like he. Like I was surprised on how quick he was with the crowd work that he was doing almost just like them taking notes.
Speaker 2:We'll find out a little bit more about him because he's going to be doing something for all of us in February. He's been in comedy, he's done comedy clubs. I've had the chance to talk to him after the show and he's he's well versed in and comedy.

Speaker 3:I'm just that guy that just knows how to like pretend he's doing a lot of work, that's good, and then just goes hide in the bathroom for so long. And then that's when the ladies started talking to me, you know.
Speaker 1:So it's true that you work with a lot of senoras.
Speaker 3:Yeah, okay, I had a co-worker because she heard that joke and she was just like you're making your team sound a lot older than they are, but I'm like they are a little older than me, you know.
Speaker 1:What are they like? Late 30s, early 40s?
Speaker 3:There's some, I don't know. There's some that are probably like in their in their 50s and up. Okay, so there's a different variety, but there's a lot of senoras there.
Speaker 2:You know A variety of senoras.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I just don't know what you're gonna pick, you know?
Speaker 2:It's a variety show.
Speaker 1:I strike you, strike me as a senora guy, someone that would date an older woman.
Speaker 3:Honestly at this point, whoever loves me, that's it, you know.
Speaker 2:What's the oldest you dated before or hooked up with?
Speaker 3:Um, I think I would say like four to five years older than me. Oh it's not that bad. Okay, hold on, but I'm open to you know senoras.
Speaker 2:What is that?
Speaker 3:You asked me. I'm being honest. Okay, four to five, but like I would definitely take down a senora.

Speaker 2:Sling some snail.
Speaker 3:Some upside down snail.
Speaker 2:Bro, I barely like the day of Fulerton. I imagined that and I was like it looks like a snow, like I can see that now. Yeah, I really thought about it. I thought about that like me, and I was just like, oh yeah, it does look like a snow.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it takes some people a while. You know, it's that when we're just kind of like you had to think about it and then you picture it. Dude, that's always the best.
Speaker 2:That's the best, where you're just like there's a laugh here and there and then you give the room a little bit to get it and they're like, oh, this is what he's talking about. I gotta run something by you before you leave. I wrote it like two days ago. I think it's fucking amazing, but I'll let you judge that Alright.
Speaker 3:for sure, count me in.
Speaker 2:It's really fucking fun. I was gonna talk to Johnny about it too, before you left, but no, it hasn't happened yet. Yeah, johnny wasn't here. Man, what are you talking about? Hasn't happened yet In the future, you mean yeah.
Speaker 3:Are you from the?
Speaker 2:future bro. What the fuck you didn't?
Speaker 1:know that you just teleport from.
Speaker 2:I'm back to the future.
Speaker 3:You're like the Spider-Man, Spider-Man's friend.
Speaker 1:Dude, you know who called me that. Did you hear it?
Speaker 2:Were you there when somebody called me that? Oh, you were.
Speaker 3:I think I was.
Speaker 2:You were. It was Diego from Noble.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, fucking Diego.
Speaker 2:Yeah, he was like give it up for Peter Parker's friend. He's just like you motherfucker.
Speaker 3:Yeah, dude, fucking Jesus.
Speaker 1:So what is your family think of? Comedy Of you doing stand-up.
Speaker 2:Have you done it in front of your family before?
Speaker 3:Okay, so my dad. I'm so blessed to have him. I'm blessed to have both parents, but my dad, actually, when he was in Mexico when he was a kid, he's always wanted to be a host or like a comic. So when I told him that I wanted to do this, he was just like do it, oh, that's cool Like his words that stick to me.
Speaker 3:He's like mueren el intento, like die trying at least because I wasn't sure if I wanted to do this or not. He's like just try it, just try it. And he's seen me perform. He's been to a lot more of my shows than my mom and he's been very supportive. My mom, on the other hand, was just like I don't know what you're doing, this is kind of a waste of time. And then I get it. You know, I get it. I thought it was a waste of time at one point too, but it just makes me happy.
Speaker 3:Comedy, doing stand-up makes me so fucking happy, man, and I understand the way she grew up. She didn't have the freedom to express herself like an art form, so I get it. So, but I just kind of like ended up dealing with it. She's been to one of my shows and the funny part is that she got fucked up that night at that show and I was like waiting for her at the end of the show to be like let's take a picture. She wanted to take a picture with two other comics and I was like fuck my son. I was just like thanks for all my full of love, you know, but yeah, it's all good. You know, and you know my siblings I don't know.
Speaker 2:How many siblings do you have?
Speaker 3:I got four. Oh sorry, three.
Speaker 2:Three.
Speaker 3:It's four, four of you guys.
Speaker 2:Yeah, four of us, okay.
Speaker 3:So they're all supportive with it. My group of friends, two men, fuck man Like I'm 10. I have blessed friends that just really believe in me and I don't know. Sometimes I'm like fuck man, like when I don't want to do this, like they always talk me into. Like no dude, like this is what you should be doing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I mean, I can see it, dude, because you're constantly writing, you're constantly going to mics, like you're doing everything that you hear that a comic should be doing when they first start right, yeah. Writing, a lot writing and writing and writing and doing open mics.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean still, like I said, writing is kind of the hard part for me, but like I'm always going over what I have and trying to see if I can switch it up. Sometimes, like I said, like ideas just pop right in the head. I'm just like, okay, I got to work this. I think it's funny.
Speaker 2:I'm going to give you a gem and I'm going to give everybody else a gem. Look up Scott Dickers. Scott Dickers, Scott Dickers. S-c-o-t-t-d-i-k-k-e-r-s. I think he's the chief editor, or used to be the chief editor, in On the Onion. Have you heard of the Onion?
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's like the priority of the news, like the news thing, right yeah.
Speaker 2:So he was a chief editor of that and he has books out called how to Write Funnier, how to Write Funnier and how to Write Funniest Get on his sub-stack. It's free and he's amazing dude. Like his concept are real. I've used them. He has this whole thread with different comics. It's just, it's great dude. It's such good stuff. I've read his books like twice already.
Speaker 2:Oh shit and it's just. They're just tips on how to write. You know how to write stand-up. It's not really stand-up. It's not how to write stand-up, but it's how to write prose, which is long form of comedy.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:Like if you're going to write a script, if we're going to write a like a newsletter, like something like the Onion, but you can use those concepts in writing and it's helped fucking a lot, dude, yeah because I took a stand-up class, bro.
Speaker 3:It was fucking crazy.
Speaker 3:I was randomly like looking on Facebook and they had like a workshop, what I thought it was. It would be like what, like Sergio does at his private suite, where, just like you can kind of like talk to other comics and like go back and forth with ideas and stuff, but they were like literally breaking down the format of how to write a joke and then class. So it was like a four class, like four classes, and for me the price was like not bad, but it was all the way in fucking Temecula, whoa. So I'm driving from Whittier to Temecula like for four Sundays. It was worth it because, like the teacher for that was really great, he broke it down, you know, but and then at the end, like you're able to showcase your material, oh nice. So it was worth it. You know, I think it was a smart investment because at the same time, like you got to think yourself as a business, like you got to take classes or whatever or certain things to, like you know, build your skills up, and it did help me a lot.
Speaker 3:It just is still like I still have some trouble spending, but it was. It was fucking awesome though.
Speaker 2:Yeah, of course I mean you're, you're throwing yourself out there, you're being vulnerable to new information.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:You're not jumping into something. Oh, I know everything like nobody does.
Speaker 3:I don't think I think in comedy you're just you'll never know everything. It's always going to be a learning experience.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:No matter how many years of experience you have. I think it was with anything.
Speaker 2:Dude with anything. Starting anything new is always tough.
Speaker 3:Either way, I think like you just have to have that mindset to like you can always get better.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah.
Speaker 3:If you have, if you have the mindset we're like no I'm, I fucking kill all the time Like you're not going to be able to grow.
Speaker 2:Or you have to have the ability to say I fucking suck and I need to work on it. Work on stuff. You know that too, that, but that takes like guts, like you have to have so much self-awareness of you not being good at something.
Speaker 4:And that's OK.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that definitely does help too.
Speaker 2:Right, like I, I bomb all the time and I enjoy it. Yeah, I really do.
Speaker 3:I think once you, I think, I think once you're OK with bombing.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:OK, a little bit easier to get better.
Speaker 2:I think the the site I hold on. Let me take that back. I am OK with bombing on new material.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I think that's just one thing is you have to be comfortable with not everybody's gonna not everybody's gonna get it.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, because it like I remember like the first couple, like still being new into it, I would bomb. Sometimes I'm like fuck dude, like why am I doing this? Yeah but something just kept telling me just go for it, just keep going for it?
Speaker 1:Yeah, of course, what's your? What's your like ideal goal? Like what? What do you? What do you want out of comedy? Do you want to just have it as a hobby or do you want to, like, make it like a career?
Speaker 3:I would love to just quit my nine to five and do comedy. I love it so much but I know it's like a long process to do it, you know, and I also think it's like your will power of how far you want to go. But, like, if I can actually get paid to do comedy, I would definitely like that would be my dream job right there, because I've always liked to entertain people, like when my friends have like parted your stuff at their house. Like I'm always trying to host, I'm always trying to like make sure we're having a good time fucking, cracking jokes, doing stupid shit to make them laugh. You know, I think it's just being an attention whore satisfies me.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, that works. I like that for you. I like you being an attention whore. Thank you, you should keep doing it.
Speaker 1:You should keep doing it, no but I think you have you're easy to connect with, like You're likable. Yeah, you're likable.
Speaker 2:You have to be likable. A comedian has to be likable.
Speaker 1:But not everyone. You could still do comedy and not know how to socialize in real life.
Speaker 2:Right, that's me.
Speaker 3:No, I think you're socialable. It's kind of like with me too when I'm drunk I don't talk to everybody. I kind of don't want to bother people. So like, if I feel like I talk to somebody, I'll talk to somebody, but like it's not because I think I'm the shit or whatever, but it's just I don't want to bother people when they're mingling around with other people. Like it takes, I guess, a certain energy from people that I can go up to and just start talking to them and just chat it up, but like, for the most part I'll stay quiet, just so I won't bother people, unless they talk to me, and it might be bad, but like that's how I just am.
Speaker 2:I remember, I remember the first time I talked to you Like really first talked to you is I interrupted you and your coach and his wife on the top of the secret suite.
Speaker 3:Yeah, that was funny, that was all good.
Speaker 2:They were just talking, having a very like it looked like a very serious conversation, and I walked up and I don't know what I said, but I was just like interrupted.
Speaker 3:I don't remember either, but I remember you're talking to us too.
Speaker 2:I was like all right, I'm going to leave now.
Speaker 3:I got to be over here, so yeah, who are some comics that, like you, look up to this?
Speaker 2:is like the fifth. Quite, this is the fifth time I've asked this question.
Speaker 3:But I'm asking you though Okay, the difference.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1:You're getting interviewed.
Speaker 2:Let's see. Let's see Mitch Hedberg, okay, steven Wright and Ronnie Dangerfield.
Speaker 3:Oh nice.
Speaker 2:Those are my top three all time. And Maria Bradford oh my gosh, she's so fucking amazing dude. She's a great entertainer.
Speaker 4:Really yeah, is it?
Speaker 2:weird that the comics that I look up to aren't Latino or Chicano. Is it weird?
Speaker 3:You're Mexican. Yeah, I know I don't look it, but so like the comics, like okay, so I have to put one on the very top, but like I feel like that's his own category is Freddy Soto. I don't know if you've ever heard of him. He passed away Like.
Speaker 2:Freddy, like prints the senior.
Speaker 1:No, he said.
Speaker 2:Soto, soto, oh, okay.
Speaker 3:Yeah, he's fucking hilarious, bro. That's like the first.
Speaker 2:Can you look at my bonus scene?
Speaker 3:Bro, he's fucking great dude. Like that was the first special I seen. It was called the three amigos. It was Freddy Soto, pablo Francisco and then Carlos Mancia.
Speaker 2:Dude, pablo Francisco fucking kills dude Little tortilla boy.
Speaker 4:Yeah, but Freddy Soto is awesome yeah, oh man.
Speaker 3:Look up, let's see if they have the one that's like regardless.
Speaker 2:So, okay, so Freddy Soto, pablo Francisco, and who was it? Carlos Montilla, carlos Montilla.
Speaker 3:That was the three of me was the first special I've ever seen. I was a kid watching it with my dad actually.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, was this before or after the Lion King's Accomedy?
Speaker 3:Honestly, I don't know.
Speaker 2:Have you seen it?
Speaker 3:before. Maybe I don't Really. I was a kid, I don't know. Lion.
Speaker 2:King's Accomedy, George Lopez.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, it was Wave, it was Paul.
Speaker 2:Rodriguez, joey Medina, who else? You have to look that one up too.
Speaker 3:Honestly, I don't want to give like false information, but I'm pretty sure it was like around that time.
Speaker 2:Who else Cheech Marine hosted that? Cheech Marine Fucking Cheech? I don't okay. I always bring up those three comedians, mitch Hadberg, stephen Wright and Ronnie Gingel, because I like their style being relatable. I can relate a little bit more to George Lopez and Paul Rodriguez, joey Medina, because they're Mexican and they talk about the stuff that my family is doing.
Speaker 3:Yeah, okay. So, if you put it that way, freddy Soto is someone that I can relate to, like of his jokes and stuff, but like the three comics that, like I've seen live, that made me really want to do comedy, is Joey Diaz, adam Ray and Krista Stefano. And I mean Joey Diaz is Cuban but like the rest, of the foods are, you know, they're white.
Speaker 2:Have you read his book yet?
Speaker 3:I'm not done, Dude it is, it's good though, but what I read is good though.
Speaker 1:So, good dude, wait, have you read it like paperback or audio?
Speaker 3:No, I have the hardcover. You need to do audio. Audio is fucking dope.
Speaker 1:He's narrating that. He's narrating.
Speaker 3:Get up cocksucker, because it's all over.
Speaker 1:Yes, it was one of those books that we were reading as we were commuting, because we had a commute all the way to Paramount, so it was about an hour there, an hour back, so we would do two hours a day of it Just fucking hear it.
Speaker 2:And it was like amazing. Yeah, yeah, it's one of those that it's. I want to listen to it again. It's classic because we always bring it up if you're going to, honestly, if we're we're talking about comedy books. Within the past year, two years, Tom Segura and Joey Diaz. Joey Diaz's books. Joey Diaz fucking killed it Like Tom Segura is great, but yeah. I won't discredit him as an author.
Speaker 3:But Joey Diaz, his book is tremendous, dude Tremendous cocksucker.
Speaker 1:It's so good. Yeah, really good.
Speaker 2:So who do we have right here regardless? So this is his Freddy Soto, his Soto.
Speaker 3:Maybe I just Just in peace.
Speaker 4:Because my dad comes up with some shit. Man, he's got like his favorite English word. He says for everything, hey, regardless. He doesn't know what it means, he just likes to say it hey in the whole regard, and he'll just stick it into a word. Man, whether it belongs there or not. Hey, freddy, come over here, listen to me. Hey, on the barrel, on the side. We need to wax it on the side regardless. And on the bottom too, we. What did you say, man? Did you just throw it over regardless in there, for no reason? No for no reason regardless.
Speaker 4:It means it. Come on, he's been doing it since I was a kid. He would ask me how to spell things for him. Hey, come over here. How many S's are there in the word shitkin? That's like an awesome rope. Shitkin. What the fuck are you talking?
Speaker 2:about.
Speaker 4:Shitkin, he gets pissed. I don't know, s8. Shitkin, how many I got that. What the fuck is man for? Oh?
Speaker 2:that's amazing. Hell, yeah, hell yeah, dude. So look up at Lion King's Accomony. I want to see who else was on there, because I'm missing two other comics at least, or one. I don't remember if I seen that one, though it's really good. It came out in like 2000,. I want to say Again, like I was young, watching it, we were watching it. My mom was telling me to go to bed because of the shit that Joey Medina was saying. There it is, yes.
Speaker 3:I remember George's special. There we go, paul.
Speaker 2:Rodriguez, joey Medina, george Lopez, cheechmare, alex Raimundo that's who it was, alex Raimundo. Joey Medina is still around. He's still doing shows.
Speaker 3:I think most of them aren't they? Paul Rodriguez, I think I've seen him on a few ads still.
Speaker 2:We've seen him and we were able to take a picture with him. We're hanging out with him in the backstage area.
Speaker 3:That's freaking dope.
Speaker 2:They did a Chicano comedy at the Peacrow Comedy Fest. Chicano Comedy Fest at the Peacrow River Arena. Okay, it was Paul Rodriguez. Alfred Robles Martin Rizzo was hosting it. It was a great event. Martin Rizzo got us backstage passes to go hang out in the VIP area. It was awesome. We were able to hang out with and stand next to Paul Rodriguez. It was really cool.
Speaker 3:That's dope. That's really cool.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I met Joey Medina not too long ago. How many months ago was that?
Speaker 1:I don't know, maybe like in August I asked them because they're at a panel.
Speaker 2:It was Alfred Robles, joey Medina, what's the guy that you're going to open up for Jerry Garcia, jerry Garcia, he's on the label too, anyways, but they're at a panel and the host was like, okay, any more questions? I was like yeah.
Speaker 4:I've been raising my hand.
Speaker 2:They're like, okay, nobody has questions. I was like god damn it. I had a really good question too. My question was to Joey Medina, and I was able to run to go catch him before the end of the night. It was in front of everybody. He literally told me in my face. I asked him hey, joey, been a huge fan since I was a little boy. How do you know when you find and I started with, I'm a big fan, I love comedy. I'm thinking about doing stand up. I don't even think I started stand up and I asked him how do you know when you find your comedic voice? He told me it's going to take you 10 years.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I was just like oh, okay, Is there a cheat code.
Speaker 3:Is there a?
Speaker 2:way that I can get there faster than 10 years. But yeah, that was his answer. I was like okay, I'll accept that as an answer.
Speaker 1:I wonder if his answer to 10 years is like that because 10 years ago or even more, when he first started, there were all these outlets that there is now, there wasn't social media, there wasn't all these comedy shows popping up everywhere. I wonder if he stayed with that thought of hey, it took me 10 years to get where I was, but that was given the circumstances of that time, or just it's his rule of thumb 10 years and year season.
Speaker 2:Could be.
Speaker 3:I think every comic will probably tell you that 10 years?
Speaker 2:Yeah, 10 years.
Speaker 3:It's a long investment Because if you think about it, that's why a lot of comics push you should be doing multiple mics in one night. Because let's think about it, how do you feel about that? Honestly, I think it's tough because I have a fucking day job. I know we can make sacrifices and stuff, but in reality we still have bills to do. So I think if you just be consistent because even on Hot Breath that's what they say I don't know if you heard that podcast, hot Breath, he's great yeah, they just say be consistent, because it can be tough. There's some days that you might not want to do and you still have to go, or you might not, because sometimes if you go half ass, do you feel like you learned something from that Doing a fucking open half ass?
Speaker 2:I should have not went to. So I did a book show and I was coming down with a cold. I should have just told the booker that A dude, I'm not going to show up because I felt like shit. I should have went that route instead of bombing with a cold on stage. I think I might have had COVID too, just spreading it. God damn it, the super spreader. Yeah, I believe it, I'm the super spreader. At all the open mics you have an open mic, I'm the super spreader.
Speaker 1:Don't say that Ta-da, ta-da.
Speaker 2:I got COVID, and the next comic after me is probably going to have COVID too.
Speaker 1:How many open mics do you do a week? What's your rule, or it's just depending on week to week? It?
Speaker 3:depends week to week, but for sure it's at least three. If I can hit more then I will. I've done it where I've done multiple mics in a night and it is tiring but you got to do it.
Speaker 2:It is right. I feel like quality over quantity.
Speaker 3:I also think it's just you got to do your own fucking path. Yeah, you can do the same route that, let's say, jo and Medina did, and then you might not find success in it. So, if you do it the way you do, as long as you're happy and shit, you're not bothering anybody who cares. It's the same thing when people try to give you advice of comedy and stuff. You get a pick and choose. What you want to take in, what you don't.
Speaker 1:Yeah. Yeah because you're right, because they're telling you this certain way, or they think that it works. It doesn't necessarily work for you or for everyone. So comedy and the road to comedy is not.
Speaker 2:It's not very funny, it's not made for one person.
Speaker 1:It's subjective for very many.
Speaker 2:It's so funny. It's not fun. Joke writing is not fun. It's hard work and that's what most people don't get.
Speaker 3:Yeah, yeah, I don't know. A lot of people say too, I wouldn't have the balls to go on stage. I think, as long as you're having fucking fun up there, you'd be a little bit vulnerable. Talk about some shit that not a lot of people will like. You'll be okay, you'll be, funny You'll be how you guys say like likeable and stuff. Be honest, Be honest yeah, that's it.
Speaker 2:Talk about some real shit.
Speaker 1:But I still think, like I don't know how you guys do it, because I couldn't. Yeah, I could be funny. I'm funny with my family. I'm funny with my friends, with my cousins. I'm the one that's always making people laugh. I can approach people. I'm social.
Speaker 2:Amber's funny.
Speaker 1:Amber's really funny.
Speaker 3:Should she go on stage? No, she won't. I could never.
Speaker 1:I could never go on stage.
Speaker 3:Or sir.
Speaker 1:No, Jesus, he's like ah push me out on the sleeve.
Speaker 1:But I could never, because I haven't got to the point in my life and I don't know if maybe you guys are there or you act like you're there, but I'm not to the point where I could take criticism. I mean I can't, I can't. I can take criticism I'm not gonna lie, but not 100% and I can't take someone not laughing at my joke or you know, like like that's a skill in itself, like yeah, you can go up there, you can write jokes, you can do everything, but also your reaction and the way that you and yourself internally take all of that, that's a skill too, because I couldn't.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it can be tough, a little bit of thick skinning for comedy, especially because there's some people that try to give you advice but it's not like honest advice, like they're trying to be dicks about it. So that's why I just say, like you got to pick and choose what the fuck like you know whatever, and just have thick skin. Just If you're happy doing this shit, just keep doing it. That's it. And anything if you're happy doing it where there just be like this, just drawing, fucking do it. Life's too short.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah. If you have the ability to do something, the why not do it Right?
Speaker 3:Yeah, a shot on yourself because like, literally, like, and I say Joey Diaz is one of the Like inspirations of doing comedy, but he really like helped me figure myself out, even in his fucking, like those videos that he does. You know like, oh, wake up, cocksucker. And you know like, yeah, all those stuff like it made me take a shot of myself. And taking shot myself was Doing comedy. I've always want, I've always wanted to do it. I just didn't know, like I didn't know I was trying to do different things, that I go into school, like that's the school route, like you have to go to college to get a good job and stuff like. But school wasn't for me. It was fucking hard and it was stressful. So, you know, and comedy is like literally the only thing I look forward into doing, like we can, week in, week out.
Speaker 1:Isn't it, isn't it crazy, like, like you right your first generation here, because you said your parents or were born in Mexico or were they born here. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, well yeah.
Speaker 1:Well, my mom was born.
Speaker 3:I'm almost born here, but she was raised in Mexico City. Okay and then my dad was born in Mexico City. But you know, but you can't, yeah.
Speaker 1:But your first generation you know, which is what I'm trying to get and I think that, like a lot of times, being first-gen and I always say this, I feel like I am repeating myself, but I always says I think for first-generation Generations like it's tough.
Speaker 1:No, I think it's tough to I don't want to say pave the way for yourself, but the expectations of like knowing that your parents came to this country to give you a better life, and quote better life in in a Latino or any minority household of like immigrants, a better life is like working right.
Speaker 1:Like be a doctor or go to work, make a lot of money, even if you're not a doctor, but something right, whether it's working, making money or maybe even your education, like that. That's what paving your way and being successful looks like but the arts are never, are never, put in front of anything like that, like being artistic or doing any type of art, whether it's comedy, painting, writing, anything that that's like playing guitar. Yeah, anything it, that's a hobby. Yeah that's seen as a hobby.
Speaker 3:I just think it's literally like you got to think about it. You got to think about a bullseye. Basically that's how I kind of came to terms with it. Is that like their parents didn't teach him anything like that? You know, it was the same shit. I get you guddle it. You have to work. You're sick, go to work, doesn't fucking matter. You need to make money to pay bills. So like to find that artistic outlook or, you know, career choice, like it's very like Unheard of for them, you know, because they were never able to do that as kids.
Speaker 1:Yeah, absolutely I guess.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I don't know. I'm third generation. I got a two decade advantage. Two generation Because, like, like, america is bad.
Speaker 1:I can't speak for, like Americans or people that are here for for generations, right, but from what I see, like you know, like a lot of American culture, like you know, a lot of their kids are artists or or whatever. Whatever my kid does to be happy, you know, yeah, and and it sucks. But again, like you said, that that that's the mentality and it's been passed down from generation to generation to generation. Is your success is measured by monetary sense of of what you have, or is that good or bad?
Speaker 2:I?
Speaker 1:Mean, I guess I could go both ways right.
Speaker 2:I don't know, because you can have a lot of money, yeah, and still do hobbies. But but you can be very like, you can be very Hating life because you've only chased the money and you necessarily didn't do anything that you want to do.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I agree, I agree with that right.
Speaker 2:Like there's people out there that are on their death bed. I wish I never worked so much or whatever. See, I wish I never. I wish I would have you know traveled more traveled more. Fuck this guy. In Finland I should have hung out more, you know. I mean I should have did more open mics or something like that.
Speaker 3:You got to live life without regrets.
Speaker 2:I should have got that tiger army tattoo.
Speaker 3:Oh yeah, I shot a tiger army right here look.
Speaker 2:You have to to tiger army.
Speaker 3:Oh, it's on this side, it's on this side.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, like like when you when girls started doing comedy and then he's like, yeah, bro, I want to do this to me.
Speaker 2:It was like if he was like telling me that he was gay and leave me, no, not, not not not to be like you wait, hold on, she's like you want to go to open mics on Thursday night. No, not to me you want to tell jokes on stage. That is so homosexual.
Speaker 1:No wait. What I meant was like it was the equivalent to that of me Thinking just the thought of that I had to tell my parents.
Speaker 2:Hey.
Speaker 1:Gilbert wants to become a comedian dude. Oh, I'll tell you it felt like I was the one telling them.
Speaker 4:He's gay.
Speaker 2:Now that there's anything wrong with that but, you know what I mean, what I'm trying to say.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, I just.
Speaker 2:I gave her dad a hint that I liked comedy and one of them was hey, you know the the guys cuz Ambers family has a coffee shop. There's a comedy show there once a month they've been doing it for over a year now and One of the night we always go, right, the guys are awesome, something coming shout out and we always go and I love it. And I told her dad hey, like jokingly, hey, they wanted me to go up tonight. But they took. They told I told them I'm gonna do it next month. I told them that joking and he knows I like to kid and he told me was like nah, you don't want to do that, like he told me.
Speaker 3:I did. I feel like that's such a fucking like right, typical like.
Speaker 2:I know, I know because we never talked about it after. But Throughout those months, like he started noticing right, like it was around the time where Amber kept the podcast, like she was gay, like she, we were closeted podcasters up until like two months ago, or how long how many like in September up? Until September, like we were Closeted podcasters. She didn't tell her dad that we had a full-on operation studio in here.
Speaker 1:Like we had a full-on studio and we have guests, because I Made up a scenario in my brain that that again, I this is what. What I was making up in my brain was that these are, these aren't things that people do. You know, we have to work, we have to do this, and not that my parents have ever said that, but I just I don't know why. I don't know why I made that in my brain. So to me it was like the less you know about my life, the better, and you're not disappointed, if if it's anything to be disappointed about. So I kept it for them a long time, until one day that I was like, all right, we do a podcast. And he's like, oh really, that's cool. Oh, you should do this and this and this.
Speaker 2:And I was like, dang it, I should have told you earlier, like I didn't know that was gonna be your reaction, that you really be so excited for us but now I will say this that her parents and her dad especially, is probably the most supportive people that I Mean that are the most supportive people in and what we do, especially comedy dude. Yeah, like they my first time that I did my comedy in front of them like it was nerve-wracking.
Speaker 2:I'm telling you that's why, like, being on stage is one thing in front of strangers, but doing it in front of your family is totally different your girlfriend's family, how I haven't done my comedy in front of my family, which is gonna be totally crazy, because You've heard my stuff and it's like half of it is about like my, my immediate family, not really like my aunt and uncle's yeah well, the the new stuff has aunt and uncle stuff in there thrown in there, but it's just, it's crazy, it's, but it's.
Speaker 2:It's good to know that you're, the, the people that are around you are very supportive of you and it makes it so much easier.
Speaker 3:Yeah, no, that's, that's definitely true. Like I Think after that show that my mom went to, she doesn't really give me shit for it anymore. Right, I think she sees that I'm more consistent in like that night, like I didn't make people laugh and stuff, and I think just by her not saying anything negative, is her being like okay, I'm okay with this. Yeah, but it is nice when you have support of your family and friends where, like, when you feel like you're ready to give up on something, like they're the ones that talk you out, oh yeah.
Speaker 3:Because sometimes you know you're your own enemy. Sometimes, oh yeah, your, your mind can tell you a lot of shit until, like, you hear it from someone else and then you just remind yourself, like no, I keep doing this.
Speaker 2:What do you what? What's usually the, the, the saying or the, the reference, that like when you're ready to quit something, like, do you ever get that like Times where you're ready to throw in the towel and you hear this phrase, or you look at a picture, or you watch this movie, or you read this book, or you watch this podcast? Like what? What keeps you going every day?
Speaker 3:damn. Um, I, I gotta give it up to Joey Diaz a lot, dude, like, yeah, joey Diaz, I'm telling you like he helped me, like it's just, it's just, you know how he talks to he's in those like motivational videos. I'm like just like like talking hard to himself. Like that's what I remember, like always remember when I'm ready to quit, like no, like you, like come on, cocks, look like you got to keep on going. Like you got to put your fucking. Like get up, you're a fucking Marine, you know.
Speaker 3:And I also think about what my dad says like dude, you got to die trying. Yeah, like only you can take yourself as far as you want to take yourself. So that's what I kind of just remember and like I just remember that I love doing this. Like it's it's so much fucking fun being able to Experience the good and the bad of comedy, like bombing on stage, and like kind of coming back the next week and being like that didn't work last week but this week it's gonna work. Or when you fucking kill. When you kill, it's just that adrenaline that you get in here like, oh, dude, I, I can fucking.
Speaker 3:I can't sleep sometimes I just I can't sleep me, neither I'm.
Speaker 2:I rewatch my fucking set even when I'm, when I bomb, I can't sleep because I'm, I'm. I Sit down and I rewrite stuff.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah or or I listen to the audio like over and over, and I was like, no, I should have Emphasize this, I should have done this movement, I should have you know. I mean, like the wheels start turning. Yeah, you're just like fuck, okay, all right. All right, I fucked this up this time. But you know what? It's fine, because there's gonna be another open mic, there's gonna be another day, there's gonna be another opportunity for me To bomb again, but that's fine, that's fine. You just keep going, dude, and that's the way. The way it works. I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I can definitely Relate to that. Yeah, cuz there's nights where either have a good set and I'll just watch the video or bats, and it's like fuck, what can I do. Or I'll start thinking in my head like on the way back home, like this didn't work, what, what can I do differently, you know? And then you can stay up fucking all night trying to figure this shit out. It's a puzzle. Yeah, it's a puzzle. That's how Josh Wolf had said it one time in a fucking podcast.
Speaker 3:Like comedy is a puzzle, you just gonna figure out how you're gonna you know solve that puzzle.
Speaker 2:What are your favorite comics right now?
Speaker 3:Well, like I said, it's you said.
Speaker 2:Andrew Santino, earlier today with Bobby Lee.
Speaker 3:I can, I'd help out this. Like, the podcast that I like listen to is like Bad friends, like so that's Andrew Santino and fucking Bobby Lee right, your mom's house. Fucking Tom Segura and Christina Pizzitski Anything fucking comedic wise I'll listen to, but like Favorite comics it just has to be Joe Ideas, adam Ray and Krista Stefano. Like those are the guys that I don't get tired of hearing and there's other great ones, it's just those are ones that I relate to the most.
Speaker 2:I'm trying to remember. I think I brought him brought him up the last time, but the? Do you remember his name? He was on mark Norman's podcast with comedy. Yeah, dude, he's fucking amazing.

Speaker 2:Anybody can do it. Yeah, anybody. Do you think anybody can do it, or is it just a skill that you have to?
Speaker 1:I don't think anybody can do it.
Speaker 2:I'm sucked.
Speaker 3:I think anybody can do it until they go up there, and if they feel like they can't do it, then don't do it.
Speaker 2:No, I'm talking about like a podcast. Oh, podcast, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 4:I mean yeah, I thought you're talking about podcasting, I think.
Speaker 2:Or is it just talking?
Speaker 3:I think it's just talking. I think it just depends. It depends because there's an audience for everybody, you know, yeah, so it's like you gotta find your own audience. What is the footstep? The podcast would be the mad bombers. The mad bombers, charlie.
Speaker 2:I don't know about that. What else do you got on your list?
Speaker 3:I got my dates coming up for. Oh, we don't need that not yet.

Speaker 3:You go girl, let's go girl.
Speaker 1:I'm everyone's cheerleader.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I like to see people succeed me to. I really do, at least try.
Speaker 3:You know, a lot of people like there's shit that I tell people at times are like oh, you know, like fucking school, whatever right, it's like okay, but like experience other shit. Like I, when I was going to fucking Cyprus College, I Was going to try to be a fucking athletic trainer, but I'm horrible at math and I needed a fucking certain math level to get to the science. So I switched to become a PE teacher and during that PE teacher fucking studies, whatever. I took a Beatmaking class.
Speaker 2:Do you have PE teacher energy? For sure?
Speaker 3:Yeah, I got the fucking body for it too, Do you dress?
Speaker 2:you dress like a PE teacher, a slutty PE teacher. You know what I thought the other day when I had like even now I feel like I'm one of those. I'm dressing now like one of those uncles that dress like athletic but are not very athletic Because you're making me grow my hair.

Speaker 2:It's not bad.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it's not the length, okay, so you rock it. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I had like one side of my hair was like super short, like up to like my chin, and then the other side Was like long up to like my shoulder, so kind of like wrapped around. And then I did like blonde. And I remember because I would go Get my hair cut in and sonata my mom's from in Sena, so I would go like all the time and I would go with the ladies and I'd be like, alright, I want you to chop off all one side. And she was like I know, no, no, no. And I was like I'll cut all the way to the other one, I'll let go. And then she's like no, but come on, come on, no, no, no, no, no, this is a mama, and my mom wouldn't go with me because I would come, like you know, with my aunt and stuff and I like my mom is not here, just chop it off. And then she like consulted three other adults at the hair salon until they were like, well, that's what she wants, that's what she wants, and then she cut it dude.

Speaker 1:Oh, you know, I think that's cool.
Speaker 3:Yeah, I mean, no, I don't know it's she. She has her own style, let's put it that way. But I think maybe that's why, because she did like rocking his bunion and stuff.
