We have an amazing interview with Brad Williams @bradwilliamscomic before his show @majestictheatredallas as we discuss his relationship with Raj and his favorite thing to do while on tour! This interview was originally going to be a segment, but it was so long and so good, we're releasing it on it's own.

WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.720 --> 00:00:05.400
Pretty cool. All right, let's

00:00:08.119 --> 00:00:12.320
appreciate it. Yeah, buddy,
handsome fellow. So Raj claims to know

4
00:00:12.359 --> 00:00:15.160
you did he? Is he just
like a serious stalker or does he actually

5
00:00:15.240 --> 00:00:21.440
you know? Well, okay,
yeah, yeah, that's kind of what

6
00:00:21.480 --> 00:00:27.160
I thought. Rog and I have
been on the road quite a bit together.

7
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:31.920
We've gone to numerous places, dangerous
places like Corpus Christi, Texas.

8
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:39.520
Uh we yeah, We've been to
a few spots and yeah, so happy

9
00:00:39.799 --> 00:00:44.119
to uh hop on this thing with
you guys. Well been I've been to

10
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:49.799
Rockport with Raj Antone Bell, so
I've seen some ship. Have you been?

11
00:00:50.200 --> 00:00:53.840
Have you been on the Chris Jericho
Rock and Wrestling Rager at Sea with

12
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:59.159
Raj? Because that that is living
my friend, This would be this would

13
00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:02.399
be a convenient time for me to
say yes. But I got tossed overboard

14
00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:08.040
very early on. Dude. Yeah, that was a gig that Raj and

15
00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:11.439
I did that I love, which
I actually just got back from a few

16
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:17.159
weeks ago. Yeah. Yeah,
it was an absolute trip. I actually

17
00:01:17.159 --> 00:01:22.159
got to do some stuff in the
ring this time. I got to give

18
00:01:22.239 --> 00:01:27.079
the Dudley Boys. That was really
cool. Yeah. So, yeah,

19
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.159
I didn't think there's a I don't
think there's a forty year old man.

20
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:37.200
I would think that jumping and having
my face landed someone's crotch would give me

21
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:41.879
so much joy. But it did, I know, And I did it

22
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:44.920
last I did it. I did
it last night on accident. So but

23
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:49.200
you you did it on the fun
purpose. Yeah. But I was actually

24
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:53.879
at the aw match last night and
saw all the boys afterwards. Yeah,

25
00:01:53.959 --> 00:02:00.599
so I saw Aubrey and the Guns
Satin them, all those guys came out

26
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:04.799
and everybody said to say hello to
you when I talked to you today,

27
00:02:05.400 --> 00:02:09.080
Yeah, so, uh so.
Rag and I also watched a live show

28
00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:15.599
in Jacksonville. This was like the
first This was like the first show with

29
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.680
an audience back after the pandemic.
But you gotta you got a backstory that

30
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:25.039
because we left Salt Lake City to
go to Jacksonville next morning. The Tale

31
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:32.759
of Two Cities. We went from
a place with alcohol to no alcohol to

32
00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:37.319
a place with all of the alcohol. That's what we did. Rag and

33
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:42.759
I only go to the finest cities. We're not going Salt Lake City in

34
00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:47.080
Jacksonville, Florida. I mean,
if you have friends and relative visiting from

35
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.840
out from out of this, from
out of the country, that's where you

36
00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:54.120
tell them to go. It's the
peak of culture. Now now that you're

37
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.479
saying it, I'm like, I
don't think he liked me, ever,

38
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:01.879
why what would he take me?
Take the only brown guy? And we

39
00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:08.319
were neighbors and we go to Salt
Lake to Jacksonville. Yep, yep that's

40
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:13.759
where we Yeah, in salt in
Salt Lake City, they tried to pray

41
00:03:13.840 --> 00:03:19.800
the brown off of him. Uh. I gave that up decades ago.

42
00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:22.680
Yeah. They were just like,
well, maybe if we send them away

43
00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:27.240
to one of our camps, we
can pray the brown off of them.

44
00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:30.879
Oh my god. And then and
then they and then they go from that

45
00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:38.240
to uh to uh Jacksonville where there
in all the hotels. Yeah, they're

46
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:40.879
like what are you And he's like, boss, that's what I am.

47
00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:46.960
Up a tail, that's what I
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

48
00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:49.680
yeah, they yeah, they thought
he was a luchador. To be honest,

49
00:03:50.520 --> 00:03:58.840
They're like, what's that brown mask? That's good minutes trying to peel

50
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.159
off They just he doesn't work.
Now, Now, if you're listening in

51
00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:05.560
the lovely city of Jacksonville. I
will be there in three weeks, so

52
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:11.520
now you have to take me.
Yeah yeah, yeah, Well I feel

53
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:13.960
like now we all just need to
take a road trip. And I feel

54
00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:16.360
like that kind of road trip would
be one that even Guy Fieri from Diners,

55
00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:18.920
Drive Ins and Dives be like,
Man, I don't really want I

56
00:04:18.959 --> 00:04:24.560
will say this and I can attest
to this is anytime you're with Brad,

57
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:29.120
something magical happens. We were just
walking I'm not even making this up.

58
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:35.000
We're walking to the club in Indianapolis
and we're just just walking past this building

59
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.920
and the security comes out and they're
like, we we love you. And

60
00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:46.480
it was Rocky p Tale. Uh. It was his cigar club or whatever,

61
00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:49.800
and they kept it. Literally we
finished the show and they kept it

62
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:56.040
open for him. Yeah, go
upstairs and so we can shop and get

63
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:59.839
our own cigars which were free,
uh, and then go upstairs and partake

64
00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:02.160
it. Have one of the best
pictures I think I've ever taken a brat

65
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.279
and it was just the most gangster
thing. I'm like, keep happening.

66
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:11.319
And then anywhere you go with this
guy, something happens. Somebody knows him.

67
00:05:11.360 --> 00:05:15.519
Somebody recognizes that, somebody's got a
story about him. Addison, Uh

68
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:20.800
improblems where I think the first show
we did together. Yeah uh, and

69
00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:25.319
now you're at the Majestic. Yeah, look at that, dude. That's

70
00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:28.759
wild. Shows. We sold the
first one, so we added a second

71
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:32.639
one. Well they're both sold out, just so you know they're both.

72
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:38.319
Don't tell him that he doesn't need
to be here. I don't need to

73
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:41.480
be here. I can go back
and actually see what my wife and child

74
00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:49.319
look like to this whole Celerity interview
thing. Hey, oh my god,

75
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:56.800
she's actually she's actually attractive. How
did I do that? Yeah, but

76
00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:01.240
it's it's quite the it's quite the
step up from I mean, you don't

77
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:03.480
get me wrong. I love the
Edison m Prov. Always will love the

78
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:08.519
Edison m Prov. Yeah, and
hey, they're one of the first comedy

79
00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:14.279
clubs to put my photo on the
side. Yeah there there. There's a

80
00:06:14.279 --> 00:06:17.560
lot of clubs that don't do that. They're they're really obsessed with dead comedians.

81
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:27.480
They says the man with the picture
of Robin Williams behind. I can

82
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:34.079
see why. Yeah, I do
love that. The vast majority of comedy

83
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:38.839
clubs, when they hang like posters
of comedians on the walls. It's of

84
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:44.240
comedians that either A will never have
never been to that club or B will

85
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:47.360
never go to that club. It's
like here at the Dayton Funny Bone,

86
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:54.800
you could see posters of Kevin Hart
Williams. They like, they're not they're

87
00:06:54.800 --> 00:07:00.120
not showing up. I always that
actually makes sense because I always wondered about

88
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.439
that with restaurants. You go into
a restaurant has all these famous people up

89
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.199
there, It's like, did they
really actually come in here? Or are

90
00:07:06.199 --> 00:07:10.160
you just putting up photos of people
that you like? And now I guess

91
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:14.680
that's a comedy club thing. Yeah, it is quite interesting when you go

92
00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:18.399
to a diner that that's in you
know, uh ol Paso, Texas and

93
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:28.199
the like, here's Warren Batty shot
and it's signed by Warren Baby. And

94
00:07:29.160 --> 00:07:32.680
then also, you know, here's
Robert Dowdy Junior's headshot. You're just like

95
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:38.759
all these people this little diner.
You know, I would love Texas.

96
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:44.800
I would love if the Warren Baby
hedgehot was signed by Ned Baby. I

97
00:07:44.839 --> 00:07:49.680
mean it's Ned Baty. I believe
it's signed. It's signed by a guy

98
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:58.560
that pronounced it baby meaty. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's that so

99
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:01.360
well. Yeah. The other downside
though, like if you go into some

100
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:05.639
comedy clubs and you see all the
pictures on the wall, depending on who

101
00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:09.079
they have up there, it you
know, it's it's a memorial for some

102
00:08:09.720 --> 00:08:13.319
and and if you're still alive,
I'd be worried if my face went up

103
00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:15.560
on the wall, thinking like,
oh God, does that mean I'm next?

104
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:18.360
Is this just a countdown wall?
Yeah? There is. There are

105
00:08:18.439 --> 00:08:22.600
a few clubs like that that like
they have they have, they have it

106
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:26.639
all, and it's almost like they
can't wait for a famous comedian to die

107
00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:28.680
just so they could be like,
oh, another photo for the wall.

108
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:35.320
We've got this blank space right here, and I don't know, man,

109
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:39.240
who who's it gonna be? You
know. Meanwhile, that diner in El

110
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.399
Paso is just waiting for Warren Baty
so they can just like dimly light a

111
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:50.720
booth and say RNP Warren. Yeah, it's kind of it's kind of crazy,

112
00:08:50.799 --> 00:08:54.480
how much like but and but we're
all kind of guilty of it.

113
00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:58.519
You know. I'm a bunch of
us in the comedy world. Some celebrity

114
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:01.519
dies and we're and we're just holding
through our photos like have I met that

115
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:07.440
person quick? I need to attach
myself to this. Yes, I have

116
00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:11.399
to say why this person's like okay, but I mean but you have but

117
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:16.120
okay, But to be honest,
like you have moments that nobody else has,

118
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.919
Like you've been on stage with uh
Backstreet Boys, uh singing I want

119
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:24.080
it that way? Am I correct? I know I was not. I

120
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:26.960
was not on stage with the Battery
Boys. I was on stage with Sync.

121
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:35.200
Yeah, sing singing, singing the
Battery It is kind of like next

122
00:09:35.320 --> 00:09:39.559
level. Yeah. I'm also standing
ovation at the when when Pete's was still

123
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:45.120
across from the improv in Addison,
you did go up and sing I want

124
00:09:45.159 --> 00:09:50.480
it that way. Hey man,
that's my jam everyone. Here's here's my

125
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:56.279
vice. Like, I've got a
four year old daughter and I've got to

126
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:58.919
give her the best advice possible and
prepare her for this world. And one

127
00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:01.799
of the main things I'm gonna have, the main thing we're gonna say to

128
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:07.360
her is have a go to karaoke
song. This is vitally important. This

129
00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:11.480
is this is very important that when
you walk in they say what are you

130
00:10:11.559 --> 00:10:15.799
singing? You have an answer And
for me, it's always Backstreet Boys.

131
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:20.840
I want it that way. That's
my jam. It works. It's a

132
00:10:20.919 --> 00:10:26.440
toe tapper. Yeah. You think
you don't know the song. You know

133
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.480
the song. You think you're like, man, I don't listen to that.

134
00:10:30.639 --> 00:10:33.559
I listened to Allman Brothers. But
then as soon as those first few

135
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:41.120
bars come in, you're like you
Yeah, you're dancing, you're singing,

136
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:48.080
you're frosting your tips. That's probably
That's probably what happened to j. J.

137
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.679
Watt before the super Bowl. That's
why he was right. He was

138
00:10:52.679 --> 00:11:00.159
wronging at a little BSB Pandora and
hear that and he's like, you know

139
00:11:00.240 --> 00:11:05.639
what, I got an idea?
Yeah, he asked his lovely wife.

140
00:11:07.080 --> 00:11:09.240
He's like, I'm going to frost
him and spike him, but not all

141
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:16.120
in one direction. No, they're
gonna be going off all over the place,

142
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:22.240
no directions. And then and then
his wife was like, how much

143
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:26.039
the CBS paying you? Sure?
Yeah, you're right. Do whatever you

144
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:30.679
want to do with that hair,
baby, go do that what Go to

145
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:35.480
Vegas, do karaoke sings and sinking
Backstreet boys, get get hamber drunk,

146
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:37.600
wake up with frosted tips, go
in every direction and then jump on TV.

147
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:41.720
You're JJ Watt what can what can
I do to you that that that

148
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:48.519
will make you less desirable to those
hoos out there? I know what to

149
00:11:48.559 --> 00:11:54.679
do. So Brad you mentioned you
mentioned, like, you know, having

150
00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:56.840
the photo up with the wall and
things and starting at the Improv and now

151
00:11:56.879 --> 00:12:01.480
you're selling out the Majestic. Uh, you know two shows? What are

152
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.559
those like initial benchmarks where you maybe
pinch yourself and say, Okay, I

153
00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:09.960
think I'm actually doing pretty good in
this stand up comedy thing. Is it

154
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:13.440
the photo on the wall? First
one was from that guy? Uh?

155
00:12:13.480 --> 00:12:16.639
For the the first one ever that
I thought, wow, I think I'm

156
00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:22.559
really doing this is I was in
San Francisco, Mill Valley, California,

157
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:28.679
and I did a show at this
small theater called the throck Morton Theater.

158
00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:33.559
And that's where Robin Williams used to
live in Mill Valley. And uh,

159
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:37.600
there was a rumor that he was
going to be at the show that night.

160
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:41.720
But there's rumors about stuff all the
time, so I don't really take

161
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:45.960
it as serious. And then I
get off, I do my set,

162
00:12:46.039 --> 00:12:50.519
I get off stage, Robin bursts
into the green room and I'm just like,

163
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:54.679
holy shit, and he and he's
coming right for me. He's just

164
00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:56.240
running right out to me. And
he just runs up to me and goes,

165
00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:03.639
oh my god, mister Williams,
you're like Prozac with a and I'm

166
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:07.399
just like, hey, that's funny, and then be all right, that's

167
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:13.399
the compliment for the rest of my
life. That is, me and a

168
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:18.360
friend of mine have this thing that
we're talking about where we talk about like

169
00:13:18.399 --> 00:13:24.480
there's moments in life that they they
you want to rewrite the first line of

170
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:31.639
your obituary, like whatever your obituary
is, there's moments in life that all

171
00:13:31.679 --> 00:13:37.840
of a sudden that first line changes. And that night Robin changed the first

172
00:13:37.879 --> 00:13:41.879
line because yeah, because from then
on out, you can say that whenever

173
00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.919
I go, Robin Williams called him
Prozac with a head, and then I'm

174
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.879
good. And how long ago was
that? That was three weeks ago.

175
00:13:52.039 --> 00:14:03.039
Robin's been underground. Fame was too
much for Robin. And apparently your career,

176
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:07.840
your career trajectory's just weird. Yeah, yeah, yeah, no,

177
00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:15.320
that was geez, that was about
twelve years ago. Well, I'll give

178
00:14:15.360 --> 00:14:16.639
you, I'll give you a little
bit of credit for this. And I

179
00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:22.000
haven't made this announcement because I didn't
I wasn't allowed to till yesterday when we

180
00:14:22.039 --> 00:14:28.639
went to Wise Guys and st Yeah. And the next day or that night,

181
00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.840
the owner came up and was like, hey, we need to give

182
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:35.559
him a special oh for dry bar. Yes, yeah, so I got

183
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:41.799
it. You got the dry bar
I did. Congratulations. I haven't told

184
00:14:41.879 --> 00:14:46.279
any of these guys at all.
I wasn't. I wasn't. I wasn't

185
00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:48.159
able to announce it until yesterday,
and I was like, I'm traveling on

186
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:50.480
the road. I'm going to San
Antonio. I was supposed to have shoulder

187
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.519
surgery or it was going to open
for you. They wanted to give me

188
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:58.519
stem cell surgery stem cell shots instead
of shoulder surgery. And I already told

189
00:14:58.519 --> 00:15:01.279
you. I was like, I
can't open. And I wasn't going to

190
00:15:01.360 --> 00:15:05.480
call back and go, well,
no I can. That's a that's a

191
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:07.919
dick move. You don't do that. As a comic. You don't do

192
00:15:07.960 --> 00:15:11.559
that. You get it, you
don't decline. And then yesterday they're like,

193
00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:13.840
hey, just let you know.
Everybody's signed off. And so March

194
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:18.799
twenty second, Uh, it's sat
Lake City. I'll be yeah, that's

195
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:24.679
all because he took me to Salt
Lake City. Yeah, so uh yeah,

196
00:15:24.679 --> 00:15:28.480
thank you so much for congratulations.
You've earned it. This is not

197
00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:33.559
like all I did was put you
in a place where where someone can see

198
00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:35.480
how good that you are. Yeah, I didn't. I didn't write the

199
00:15:35.559 --> 00:15:39.679
damn jokes, so so I just
got a little missy so sorry. That's

200
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:45.159
awesome, man, congratulations and you
you you. We went to lunch the

201
00:15:45.159 --> 00:15:48.200
next day and you're like, hey, so uh the owner wanted to put

202
00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:52.200
you on the dry Bar special and
I was like, he hasn't called anybody,

203
00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:56.159
and then I get the call a
couple of weeks ago and I film

204
00:15:56.240 --> 00:16:00.200
it. That's awesome because I mean, you, your co hosts probably know

205
00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:06.000
this, but I don't know what
the fans do. Last year you almost

206
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:14.039
died, which would have really sucked
because your name, your face wasn't even

207
00:16:14.120 --> 00:16:18.519
on the wall yet. And this
year December nineteenth, I got in a

208
00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:21.840
car accident. That's why I couldn't. I was going to open for you

209
00:16:21.840 --> 00:16:26.399
with the Majestic Baby Ball. Who's
amazing, and you've given so many people

210
00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:30.759
so many opportunities, and it's it's
so great to see what you do because

211
00:16:30.799 --> 00:16:36.200
you are just that wonderful of a
human. December nineteenth, they got a

212
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:38.080
car accident, and so they were
going to do shoulder surgery this week.

213
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:44.320
Now they've changed the stem cell,
and so I didn't want to call you

214
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:48.320
back and go to the show.
Now. It just made me seem like,

215
00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:51.240
well, you know, my shoulders
more important. I'm like, you

216
00:16:51.240 --> 00:16:53.679
guys, go do the Majestic.
And then I got the call and I

217
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:57.960
was like, I can't wait for
me to tell you. That's so good.

218
00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:00.080
It was because of you, man, I wouldn't been I wouldn't have

219
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:10.519
been in that club. That's I
get more joy from stuff like that than

220
00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:17.920
like like when you get stuff when
JB Ball gets stuff that because to me,

221
00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:21.160
it's like a coaching tree. It's
like this is like this is like

222
00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:25.480
the Belichick. Yeah, coaching tree. And and thankfully, you guys are

223
00:17:25.480 --> 00:17:34.599
way better than Matt Patricia. That
didn't go well. You know that right

224
00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:37.319
there, that that little quote you
just said, I'm gonna snick down on

225
00:17:37.359 --> 00:17:41.559
a flyer somewhere about our show,
you know, attributing Brad Williams. You

226
00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:47.480
guys are better than Matt Patricia,
better than Matt Patricia. That's so that's

227
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:52.839
so awesome, man. I love
that because I mean because every comic has

228
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.559
had those milestones in their career,
and a lot of comics, dare say

229
00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:02.240
all of them have that person or
those people that helped him out, that

230
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:06.200
gave him the spots and that put
them put him in front of the right

231
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:08.279
people, or gave him the right
Yeah. You also you also have to

232
00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:11.599
take credit for this. You didn't
make me look like a drug dealer when

233
00:18:11.640 --> 00:18:17.279
we went to Jacksonville because we're going
because we did Salt Lake say the whole

234
00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:21.799
week and is Brad your your people
when they buy merch they spend cash.

235
00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:25.680
Yes, And apparently when you go
well not apparently, when you go through

236
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:29.799
security, you have to take all
the cash out of your pocket. You

237
00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:32.079
can't put it in the bin.
You have to hold it in your hand.

238
00:18:32.759 --> 00:18:37.920
And I it's the most money I'd
made. And he knows this because

239
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:41.920
I texted it, because he was
he gets first class. I'm still coach,

240
00:18:42.680 --> 00:18:49.319
so I'm still on a watch list. Yeah, but do be fair.

241
00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:55.680
You had to your pockets because you're
brown going through the airport, and

242
00:18:55.799 --> 00:18:57.680
he was. And the best part
was he was in front of me and

243
00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:00.240
they're like, uh, this Williams
coming through. I'm like, and I

244
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:08.880
walked behind him. He goes,
not you, and I'm standing here.

245
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:18.200
This is where everybody has been magically
uh presearched, Like, but I'm holding

246
00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:25.799
four thousand dollars yeah, in in
in cash at them. I'm walking by

247
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:33.319
and the t s. A guy
goes, what do you do? I

248
00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:37.680
go, I'm a standup comic and
he looks at the money, goes yeah

249
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:45.240
right, yeah. I was like, just went through. Yeah. Guy

250
00:19:45.359 --> 00:19:48.519
was looking at was liked, dude, you're supposed to put that in your

251
00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:56.359
ass? What are you doing?
Who didn't give him a balloon? Has

252
00:19:56.359 --> 00:20:02.759
no one told this guy how how
we do the newest the newest drug meal?

253
00:20:03.839 --> 00:20:07.200
Exactly. I've always said sometimes the
best place to hide is right out

254
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:12.559
in the open. Well, I
mean when you you travel with him,

255
00:20:12.759 --> 00:20:15.480
Yeah, it's It's one of the
best things in the world because people are

256
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:18.880
like, there's no way you two
guys are together. Well, that's the

257
00:20:18.920 --> 00:20:26.160
thing. It doesn't matter who like
my current opening act, JB. Ball.

258
00:20:27.039 --> 00:20:30.119
He's great comic, he's a He's
a six foot three black guy,

259
00:20:30.640 --> 00:20:36.799
and so when we want, one
of our favorite things to do after shows

260
00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:41.839
is to go to waffle house and
just eat eat waffle house and people watch

261
00:20:41.960 --> 00:20:47.079
because there's a there's a lot of
things that walk through that door at waffle

262
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:51.160
house, and a full and a
full set of chromosomes is not one.

263
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:59.680
Can we can we talk about the
the applause break that you do get on

264
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:03.359
the light when you put your own
bag in the overhead bin. Yeah,

265
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:07.880
we'll get there. No, No, I'm not even making I'm not making

266
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:11.680
it up. Tell them. Yeah. So like, but what what what

267
00:21:11.720 --> 00:21:14.759
I'm saying is is like me and
j B go out to the waffle house

268
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:18.240
and we're laughing, we're people watching, we're laughing at other people, and

269
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:21.559
then we stop and go. As
much as we're laughing at other people,

270
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:23.319
there's other people that are looking at
us. Going. A six or three

271
00:21:23.319 --> 00:21:33.000
black guy and a midget just walk
in the door together. What weird gay

272
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:41.720
porn site coming from? So tender
works, get yourself a nice little partner.

273
00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:47.359
But what Roger is talking about is, yeah, my applause doesn't come

274
00:21:47.400 --> 00:21:49.839
after the first joke. It comes. It comes when I It is the

275
00:21:49.839 --> 00:21:52.839
moment. It comes when I fly. I put that bag up in the

276
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:57.359
overhead storage bin because I don't like
getting help. Uh so I just throw

277
00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:00.839
down the arm rest, I hop
on. You know, it's like one

278
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:06.759
motion, like I got it,
got this. This is like this is

279
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:12.200
like dwarf calisthtics. Is that he
just reached down and chuck the bag the

280
00:22:12.279 --> 00:22:18.559
bag so sorry, I got my
camera on like follow me mode. So

281
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:22.799
this is really actually cool. It
works, It works out really well.

282
00:22:22.000 --> 00:22:26.440
So so so so the entire plane
then is it? Is it pity applause?

283
00:22:26.519 --> 00:22:30.759
Or they first class ship? What
did we just see? Like,

284
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:36.599
I like, I know Southwest flat
attendance sometimes make up wraps, but now

285
00:22:36.640 --> 00:22:40.440
we got dwarves chucking bags up in
the top. Bro, Like this is

286
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:45.960
this is a new level. American
Airlines has stepped their game up. Yeah,

287
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:48.920
I mean it is the first class
applause break because I have I told

so I have to follow him and watch

289
00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:56.119

290
00:22:56.359 --> 00:23:02.880

I'll take the three dollars peanuts. It's

291
00:23:02.920 --> 00:23:10.319
great, first class. I'll let
you do anything. It's wonderful. Ra

292
00:23:10.599 --> 00:23:14.440
doesn't even know this, but I
I've I've flown the plane he's on before.

293
00:23:15.240 --> 00:23:19.480
They literally like they yeah, they're
they're I mean, because let's be

294
00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:23.279
honest, when I when I'm in
first class, everyone thinks I'm a everyone

295
00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:27.599
thinks I'm a make a wish kid. Anyway, They're just like, do

296
00:23:27.599 --> 00:23:30.720
you want to fly the plane?
I'm like, yes, I do.

297
00:23:30.039 --> 00:23:33.920
You know, I got a thread
in the back. And then look at

298
00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:38.720
Brown and go he's not going in
the coffee. That one doesn't, that

299
00:23:38.799 --> 00:23:45.799
one doesn't go past this line.
That one doesn't. I do think though.

300
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:48.160
I do think though that on Spirit
Airlines, if you pay enough,

301
00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:52.640
they may actually let you fly the
plane. Yeah. Well, let's be

302
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:57.559
honest. Raj from Texas, so
when he gets on a flight, it's

303
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:02.480
like brown guy with like a big
Texas flag hat, and everyone's like you're

304
00:24:02.519 --> 00:24:07.279
trying to look like like you're you're
trying too hard, dude, like trying

305
00:24:07.319 --> 00:24:12.119
to blend in. More like Raj
dresses on flights like give me a e

306
00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:21.440
se. No. I can absolutely
see it because Raj will walk on the

307
00:24:21.440 --> 00:24:26.400
plane. He's got his Columbia PFG
fishing gear with the American flag or the

308
00:24:26.440 --> 00:24:29.559
Texas flag on it. And I'm
with you, absolutely, ra There's no

309
00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:32.279
way I would be sitting in that
plane thing. I'm not buying that.

310
00:24:32.279 --> 00:24:34.160
That guy, he's trying way too
hard. And the last and the last

311
00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:38.119
time I flew with Brad, I
was wearing Daisy Dukes and that was a

312
00:24:38.200 --> 00:24:47.559
terrible idea. I mean, my
ass looked cut, But you don't wear

313
00:24:47.599 --> 00:25:00.480
that the Salt Lake away. It's
sort of like it's instead of dressing for

314
00:25:00.519 --> 00:25:03.799
the job you want, you dress
for the city you're in. Okay,

315
00:25:04.559 --> 00:25:08.880
So maybe I don't know if this
is like a bit I'm working on,

316
00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:17.400
but it's certainly so Like I've noticed
that whatever city I land in, whenever

317
00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:22.240
I get off the plane, I
will immediately see someone that looks like that

318
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:26.880
city. It happens every time.
So like when you fly to Los Angeles,

319
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:30.920
like right when you get off the
plane, you'll see a twenty two

320
00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:37.920
year old influencer with like wearing bunny
ears and like they've they have got fur

321
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:41.000
coming out of various parts of clothing, like it's it's horrible. And then

322
00:25:41.319 --> 00:25:45.599
and then you like fly to Jacksonville
and as soon as you get off the

323
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:51.799
flight, you see Jacksonville like right
away. And so I imagine when I'm

324
00:25:51.839 --> 00:25:53.960
in Dallas and I and I and
I and I and I get off the

325
00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:57.680
flight, I'm just gonna see somebody
with a belt buckle that looks like a

326
00:25:57.839 --> 00:26:06.319
WWE champion. That's gonna happen.
You know, as much as much as

327
00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:11.519
I want to dispel that stereotype that
people from Texas or Dallas are all cowboys

328
00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:15.519
or or you know, own ranches
and horses, you're not wrong because every

329
00:26:15.559 --> 00:26:18.240
single time I've been at an airport, whether it was love Field or DFW,

330
00:26:18.839 --> 00:26:22.000
there is always that one fucking guy
with the with the belt buckle in

331
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:26.880
the hat so and you look at
him and you're like, like, I'm

332
00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:33.880
in sweatpants and a hoodie because it's
comfortable. There's no way a twelve gallon

333
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:37.559
hat and that belt is like no, this is this is great, this

334
00:26:37.720 --> 00:26:41.240
is okay. But I mean,
if if I were to, and now

335
00:26:41.279 --> 00:26:47.400
I'm going to, because you've sold
out your shows as an adjusted killing him,

336
00:26:47.400 --> 00:26:51.359
that no second show still has I
think it has like eight seats,

337
00:26:51.599 --> 00:26:56.759
it's got a handful. Yeah,
whatever, I'm gonna send you the ten

338
00:26:56.880 --> 00:27:03.240
gallon hat and the belt buckle as
a thank you, as a thank you

339
00:27:03.279 --> 00:27:04.720
for the special because I mean,
I wouldn't get it if it wasn't for

340
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:10.000
you. But you have to wear
it. At some point, you guys

341
00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:15.440
talk amongst yourselves for like thirty seconds. Thirty seconds, right, this is

342
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.960
going to be a thing of beauty. Whatever it is he's going to come

343
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:23.119
out with. Robin Williams just popped
up. If he if he comes out

344
00:27:23.440 --> 00:27:29.599
with a ten gallon hat, I
don't know what we'll do. I hear

345
00:27:29.599 --> 00:27:32.160
a little bit of talking back,
and he's probably asking his wife, Hey,

346
00:27:32.319 --> 00:27:42.359
hey, where's my and then whatever
he's looking for. I don't know

347
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:55.839
what you think goes out, but
oh, look a little herb. It's

348
00:27:56.319 --> 00:28:07.240
dog half dig and that's when you
drop the mic and you want I'm ready

349
00:28:07.279 --> 00:28:12.079
for Texas. Wow. Look,
I don't even know why you own this,

350
00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:21.720
honestly, because my my wife doesn't
like sports. She likes two sports.

351
00:28:21.799 --> 00:28:23.160
Okay, she likes two sports only. So you're like, oh,

352
00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:26.759
like football, baseball, basketball,
hockey, one of the Nope. My

353
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:34.799
wife likes strong men competitions, yes, and rodeo. She loves PBR.

354
00:28:36.039 --> 00:28:41.119
She loves Pro Bowl riding, So
so I go to Pro Bowl Riding with

355
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:45.640
her, and I gotta I gotta
look the part myself. One of these.

356
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:49.039
Wow, that was my first job
ever, was the mesquite rodeo.

357
00:28:49.920 --> 00:28:52.559
Oh the mesquite rodeo. What did
you do in the rodeo? Don't say

358
00:28:57.359 --> 00:29:02.119
now, now put the brown pat
Let's see what happens to them, Let's

359
00:29:02.119 --> 00:29:08.480
see what they killed. They they're
attracted to red. Uh No, I

360
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:11.279
was a concession stand guy, but
that was my first job. So the

361
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:18.000
fact that you actually went to like
PBR stuff is wild. Well, the

362
00:29:18.039 --> 00:29:23.039
best part about your your wife liking
an obscure regional sport and that region is

363
00:29:23.079 --> 00:29:30.799
not Southern California is that when they
do come to Southern California, Like if

364
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:34.480
she liked it and we lived in
Texas or something like that, we couldn't

365
00:29:34.480 --> 00:29:41.640
get tickets because it's it's gangbusters there, But in Southern California, like front

366
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:45.960
row seats are still just twelve bucks. I'm like, let's go. And

367
00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:51.720
I got asked, did the did
the I saw some I saw some pictures

368
00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:56.359
which were, uh, the Chargers
I think tried to convert you or was

369
00:29:56.400 --> 00:30:00.799
it the Rams? Oh no,
the Chargers try to convert me. I'm

370
00:30:00.799 --> 00:30:07.319
a I'm a lifelong die hard Broncos
fan and Chargers, Uh, well,

371
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:12.640
they they gave they wind and dined
you. They wind and dined me and

372
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:18.960
get the field field level sweet and
uh and I'm like, I will take

373
00:30:18.000 --> 00:30:23.880
your I will take your free chicken
wings and uh, I will leave.

374
00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:27.920
And that's what he's not lying.
Yeah, well, it looks like a

375
00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:33.359
full sized chicken with me. It
looks like one of those turkey legs you

376
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:37.920
get in the Renaissance Mare when I'm
chicken wing, you know, especially they

377
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:44.000
wind And so did you? Did
you? Did you? Car Ball?

378
00:30:44.200 --> 00:30:49.960
No? Your team's your team.
I'm I'm sick and disgusted because I got

379
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:55.799
to watch the damn Chiefs hoist another
Super Bowl trophy as a as a Broncos

380
00:30:55.839 --> 00:31:00.519
fan, and when and when it
happens if you watch the game as if

381
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:04.960
that wasn't painful enough for that game, you had John Elway bringing them the

382
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:15.240
trophy, I know, Oh god, I can't even I can't fathom that

383
00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:21.559
level of nausea because as a Cowboys
fan, the comparison would be Staubach or

384
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:25.960
Aikman taking the trophy to you know, the Eagles quarterback. Could you imagine

385
00:31:26.119 --> 00:31:33.599
if the freaking Commanders are the football
team or the this this regional I don't

386
00:31:33.640 --> 00:31:37.920
know what they're called, but like
if and then you got you got Roger

387
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:44.119
Staubach Captain America coming out like,
here you go, Dan Snyder, like,

388
00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:51.680
you know what, I would actually
say this if it was Aikman.

389
00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:53.480
I think Akman would be very professional
about it, and it would make me

390
00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:56.960
want to throw up, but he
would do it. I hold out a

391
00:31:56.960 --> 00:31:59.920
little bit of hope that if Stabach
did it, he might actually shove that

392
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:07.319
trophy right up Snyders and regain the
title of Captain America. Yeah. The

393
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:12.319
the only Yeah, the fact that
the Chiefs won that game. Elway brings

394
00:32:12.359 --> 00:32:15.960
them the trophy and it's in the
Raiders home stadium. So that's why I

395
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:19.440
had to ask. That's why I
had to ask, because I know they

396
00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:22.160
were wooing you, and then it's
Vegas and we've worked together in Vegas,

397
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:29.680
and then Elway brings out the trophy
and you have to watch. I mean,

398
00:32:30.319 --> 00:32:37.599
I don't. I don't enjoy cuckold
porn. I kind of get it,

399
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:40.400
kind of get it now. I
would like to point out that this,

400
00:32:40.519 --> 00:32:51.759
interestingly enough, is the second cuck
punchline we've had in the Treehouse's previously

401
00:32:51.799 --> 00:33:00.720
unmentioned, but twice more finding things
out about Trey obviously heard the show tray.

402
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:12.759
Do you like to watch? Are
you taking volunteers? Brad? Have

403
00:33:12.839 --> 00:33:16.440
you heard of a dandough? Shut
up? Shut up? Trey. Trey

404
00:33:16.480 --> 00:33:22.079
got come so hard that he's single. I don't know what that is.

405
00:33:22.720 --> 00:33:27.920
All I know is I'm not typing
it into porn hub. That's definitely to

406
00:33:27.920 --> 00:33:32.599
send you. Send you a dando, buddy. I'm Brad. I'm gonna

407
00:33:32.680 --> 00:33:36.079
let you go on because I know
you're a busy man. You want to

408
00:33:36.119 --> 00:33:39.200
go see what your wife and and
kid look like. And you're taking the

409
00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:44.720
time. Man. You look great
in the hat and have a great time

410
00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:49.559
when you're in Dallas and uh and
uh yeah, just for the record,

411
00:33:49.759 --> 00:33:54.920
uh, ra love you, buddy, Congrats, congrats you've earned it.

412
00:33:55.200 --> 00:34:00.960
And again I haven't been able to
announce it until yesterday. But if it

413
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:05.400
wasn't for you, my brother,
uh in a random a random a random

414
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:07.960
chance of the laugh factory to sit
and talk with you led to all of

415
00:34:08.000 --> 00:34:15.159
this. Uh yeah, let's be
honest. I'm with my wife because she's

416
00:34:15.199 --> 00:34:16.639
a great cook, and I'm friends
with Raj because he knows where to get

417
00:34:16.679 --> 00:34:22.239
the best damn chicken ticker solid in
the city. And I'm gonna have it

418
00:34:22.280 --> 00:34:27.000
again. I'm gonna have it in
Dallas. I will, I will.

419
00:34:27.199 --> 00:34:30.280
I will send you food if you
if you need, shout out the place.

420
00:34:30.320 --> 00:34:32.599
What's the name of the place?
Agree? Agree? Now, are

421
00:34:32.639 --> 00:34:36.960
white people allowed in there? Yeah? I mean yes. I mean if

422
00:34:37.000 --> 00:34:40.760
you walked in uh without me,
you'd be okay. When you're ordering the

423
00:34:40.800 --> 00:34:44.599
food there, you have you have
to say, like we're like what level

424
00:34:44.599 --> 00:34:46.719
of spies? Yeah, like white
Always I will say white guys, that's

425
00:34:46.760 --> 00:34:52.440
so so so I always go white
friend, brown friend. So you know,

426
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:54.639
I don't know if you know this. With every city we've gone to,

427
00:34:55.119 --> 00:34:59.599
when I order food, I go
white friend, brown friend, and

428
00:34:59.599 --> 00:35:02.480
they make our food different. But
my brother, if it wasn't for you,

429
00:35:02.960 --> 00:35:07.440
I wouldn't wise guys and and dry
bar would have never given me the

430
00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:09.599
special. I wouldn't have never I
wouldn't have been in the buildings. So

431
00:35:10.679 --> 00:35:15.599
my brother, thank you so much
from the bottom of my heart. I

432
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:17.960
love you all. Thanks for having
me on the show. And yeah,

I'll see you. Thank you.
We appreciate it. Bud. All right,

434
00:35:22.800 --> 00:35:24.840
I guess we should actually hit that
uh that bumper to come back from

435
00:35:24.880 --> 00:35:40.079
break. Now you're in the visit
us online a treehouse on air. Dot com
