So I got I like yeah, I told other comics followed that bro I got booed two times and got two standing ovations in twenty minutes. I don't want jerseys no more when I go to town, especially Houston right now, because wherever I go with the Houston jersey man. Well, here's the here's the thing. Before you go to a city, you must, absolutely must. It is incumbentent up on you to read the newspapers, go online and find out what's going on in the city so you will know what

the vibe is. We always knew when we came to cities areas. We were always researching what was going on in that city. So when we come to city, we got out, we got we got we got our jerseys on, we got our caps on, or whatever it is, and we always consistent with the vibe and the city mind. You would always say things that were going on politically or socially, whatever the climate was, we knew because we did our research. But mind you, Willie. Willie said that, uh,

president is a long time ago. When wearing the city of the Jersey, the cities the Jersey was the city with represented the city that we were in. And I followed that, you know all the way. You know, thirty something years later, I still well, I don't do it anymore now because I worked with the Astros Foundation, But I um, I definitely wore the jerseys of whatever city I was in baseball Jersey at that And how did you get started in comedy? Man? I was working security

for about five years. Man, please and listen. Wait wait wait wait wait, don't man, please don't make me laugh. Don't alright, have a decent discussion, man, and call it all right, go ahead. Did you have a gun? Yeah? I was commissioned. I went to school for it. I went to Barkney Career School. I still said, when you don't make me laugh, I still they're still looking for me.

So what do you call it? Yeah? So I went there and I took a class and you know, I mean win and get the gun range thing they trained you. I got top gun. I won the trophy because I was in the army, so shooting guns was pretty simple. And then it was simple, like really gun it was yeah said it was easy. It was easy to shoot the gun. You know, because I was in the military. I was trained. Plus we grew up the farm. We

knew about how to handle weapons and stuff. And then uh, I started working and this is eighty nine, ninety nine ninety two. This is when and I was working in the Gulfing area of southwest bell Are all that stuff.

So this is when you know, crack. It's like really taking over because I because I worked, Yeah, I work departments, man, sometimes so like you can see a family you know good and then little by little like their lights are out and then then you pawn and TV like in one year because I worked some properties sometimes two years and you can just see them to terrorating man just like yeah, so it was taken over. And then you know,

the apartments were so big. There was a lot of empty apartments, so you go, you can you would always find people the oa's it was always you can you can just pass by and just man and then he'd be like, yeah, I need to you mean, I need whatever I'd call my company, but I was a captain, so they used to would call me I was a security guard. I was a captain. I was making three thirty five. That's bullshit, that's tired. You're the cap they're

like man, and I was making the same with everybody else. Yeah, So how did you get transitioned into comedy? Well, I got tired of just I mean, you know those those clubs paid more at night, the little pony bars. It's like girls work there and you buy them a little pony beer for ten bucks, and the girls make seven and the owner makes three. So there's like sixty ladies who's working there, and guys come in and they buy them drinks and stuff, and they're not really drinking. They're

drinking water, sprite whatever. So now the dudes all buzzed out. So now they asked me to tell them to leave so she can be with somebody else, another customer, and this dude's like, I've already been four bucks on her, and so we had to throw them out. So of course they would get buying in sometimes in the hostile

and that's what we were there to do too. You have to refuse it or to restrain them, and then I was really cool with the cops man, because like, I didn't funk up a lot of security guards meant to jail a lot of my people because they wouldn't have their commission card, or they would take out their gun when they weren't supposed to or or anything. So me I handcuffed this one guy and these cops came up and they're like, what's up. I was like, look, man,

I really don't want to do nothing here. I just can't ask him to leave the property. So you wanted to do all the paperwork or whatever, and he goes, why didn't you want to have comform? And I'm like, well, I'm not a magistrate, I'm not a peace officer. So they just stopped and looked at me. They're like you know what that means? And I'm like, oh, yeah, I went to school for this ship. I was like, I'm not. I'm not these other fuckers that y'all taking to jail.

And they're like, oh, oh cool man, Like we need somebody like you. So they called my company said this dude is good. So that's kind of like what made me the captain because then they didn't give you a race. Yeah, man, they didn't give me no race, but the clubs like me. And it was just a lot of fighting, man, a lot of I got beat up, good beat up. Oh my god, bro, I got beat up like two hundred times, at least about five hundred fights. I tell people, I

got beat up at least two hundred times. Good ones. They were like, okay, look, I'll give you one of the best ones. Man. And the owner, this dude is a regular. He's a little short, baskin dude. He's a regular. He's about fourty years old. I'm like twenty two. And so he grabbed some lady like by accident, but it started a bunch of stuff. So I had to ask him to leave, and he said, man, why are you telling me leave? He got all mad at me and

this and that. So somehow we ended up walking out the club and we're in the parking lot and we're in between a truck and a car. So I'm like, hey, man, stop getting on the hotstown. This dude just started getting mad. So then I put my hands on the kind of hard. I said, hey man, you don't want to do this right now, like stop because oh you just stop doing So then we started like like, and I thought I grabbed him hard enough to put him against the car.

But this little fucker did something Willie and I heard and I heard, and I looked at my fucking feet are going over the hood ornament of the truck. I this sucker threw me over a truck. I'm like, what the fund is this for real? Like landed on between the truck and the car. I'm like, oh, I was dizzy. I see them a little boost coming to round and click a click uick. I think I'm my gun. I said, okay, are you one? Like yeah, he goes that's it. I'm like, yeah, you're good, and I put my gun. I have to

sit there, Okay. So that made it bad because then I started working out, you know more, in training more and doing my kicks faster and everything. So for the next six months, dude, I was just you know, I mean, I was tagging people. Man, I was sometimes going a little bit too far. Okay, I'm walking the owners out. About six months later and there's UH to their car and then there's a truck there and it's him and he's thinking up and he's like, hey, you're another shot,

And I'm like, what another shot. Okay, this is where the water sharp's down. And then there's a water little center. So it's a big old parking lot empty. It's his truck in my car. He's like, you want another shot. I'm like yeah, bro, yep bro. I walked up to this dude. We fought for about six seven seconds, and this dude hit me so hard, like I didn't know what the kidney shot was at that time, but it's like he hit me and like my body went like this, but like bad, Like my body went like this and

I fell down and I couldn't even move. And then and the dudes like just look at that me and he's like you're good. I'm like, he's like hey, So this fucker sat there. He sat there and drink a beer until for about ten minutes, and I was already able to move around and go to my car and take my ass home. Okay, like take my ass home. And that was it, And that was it. Okay, okay, Brad, look really okay. Then I really went into like I started really working and getting I was fast, strong, tougher.

Six months later, I walked out to the owners. This dude is like the same little post little me hey, I wann't do it again. I'm ready, Willie, I'm ready. I'm like, yep, hold up. I go to my car, take my rig off. I'll take my gun, you know, my magazine, the whole rag, the hand cauls, all that. I take my baton, everything off, and I took off my shirt. I'm a disco bro, that's go ready, and

I can kick pretty fast. And I kicked him fast, but it didn't didn't hurt like he was supposed to, like you know what I mean, but you know me, I was like, so, man, anyway, another eight ten second fight. He got me, stop me, he punched me, do me down, never keep me when out of the ground because I got up and he he whopped my eyes again. Bro. So now I'm laying there and I'm there for about fifteen minutes again, and he's like, hey, I gotta go. You really, I gotta go. This fucker helped me get up.

He walked me to my car. He walked me to my fucking car, brad Grass, my gun, my rig, everything out of the driver's seat if those it in the passenger seat. And then and then I sit down and he's looking at me. He's like you're good, and I'm like, yeah, are you going home? Like yeah, man going home? Man? He goes, I'm gonna follow you the fuck you like like I want to shoot you right now, fucker. But yeah, y'all best friends. Now, Yeah they're cool. No, No, I haven't.

I haven't seen him since, but I watched his way, did you get? Yeah? Man three times. You gotta remember that. Roland? Yeah yeah, Roland? How big? How tall is it? He was like, no, that bad? He was about I said about five five five six because I was like five nine, because like his head was like right here, that's what he had leverage. But when I saw that hood on him in the first time, that I should have learned my lesson right there, Bro, Yeah what the second time?

I should have learned my lesson. But you should have learned your listen, bro, when somebody put up and say you want to give it another shot? Oh my god. He was forty something. So now I tell people I'm fifty five. This fucker's about seventy five, and I'm like, nah, I don't know. And it's still a lot. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. He might still be healthy,

workings on anybody still want. Yeah, I was three fights in the same person, the same dude, and he would in my spot that he would call me in this and I was trained, I was working. You know. I do want to say this, man, I do want to give you your props for not popping dude because you had he was well within your rights. They can't pop him? Why not because his life is not an imminent danger. It was he dude dropped me in the fight. The dude he got the gun on him and pull your

gun and pop. Can't do that. You know what, we don't have ad It was being him alone. I had blood on me my shop, but going out it could have happened, could have popped. Yeah, but I have to defend that. Yeah. And you know what when I did it right along with a cop when I worked security, I didn't run along. He said. They want don't ever shoot nobody. Don't never shoot nobody. Man, how much you paying your sire five, dude, don't ever shoot nobody Like

you don't know what that feels like. I've seen cops shoot people and start crying like I've seen that. I've seen cops beat up people and then cry like they felt bad with some of they shoot people and crying, not because they that's part of the defense. Defense. Yeah, it was gonna come down there and give you a hug. That it was. It was. That's that's how it was. Like. It was crazy, man, and I didn't They liked me, man, The cops like me, so they had my bag and

uh I got shot at like it six times. Never shot nobody, Never wanted to shoot nobody. There was six times I could have they were shooting, and I wasn't gonna miss dangers. The question now because like this, because I'm like, they chased me mostly do the show. Their lines are not in him in the day anyway, the cops to kill people their life now, No, I'm just

talking about that. I'm talking about as a security guard, as a civilian, as or whatever you are, Like if your life is not an even like I can't shoot the motherfucker because I'm mad at him. You can even take a gun and name it at him. A security guard, and I got a gun on me at all times. It will take a gun out of nameing at somebody. You're going to jail, Yeah, and and the couch wild

coming and take on the jail. And I had to sign the paperwork and all together and said yeah, yeah, So if you ain't, if your life is not an imminent danger, don't pull that motherfucker. Only time when you let them tell it, I felt like my life was in Well that's the police. I'm just talking about. Like again again, I'm gonna say as a security guard or a civilian. I'm a civilian and I'm not I'm not gonna play that. I ain't gonna getting mad. I ain't

gonna have a road rage. But man, if you put me in that position where I have to do, you can almost start making arrangement. The only time I was chasing the kid and he was gonna shoot a car, and the only time because I said, hey, bad stop, I had my gun chase though, and said stopped. And he turned around and he took out his gun, shot his ways and I shot the ground. I said pop

and he and he dropped the gun and took thee. Yeah, because when the cops came, they were like mad at me, like well, some of them were like you did nope, and the other ones like you know. But then when they caught him and he was a sixteen year old kid, nope, and the Mexican couts were more mad at me. You look at what the funs wronging. You should have shot that mother? This is that whatever? Why did you shoot on the will? He standard in front of a window, and you know, I mean I would have if he

would have. He wasn't gonna shoot at me like I. He dropped the gun as soon as he hurt the pop. He dropped the gun. It's like when people talk a lot of stuff, but you hear that they scattered. Some genie gotta shoot. So I I was in control. I was in full control of the situation and he gets sunked up. I knew exactly what I was doing, and I didn't. I didn't kill a kid, you know what I mean? It would have been justifiable because if I would have waited for him to really aim and on

to like shoot. Because people think they know how to shoot bad. They go to the gun range with their fucking goggles and their head phone. And I took my cousins in there that they hated. They're doing this ship right here. I told my cousins, well, you're not. You ain't having fun because it's expensive, dude, I spend like a thousand bucks. They're like the like we got glasses and the hit fine. I'm not wearing this ship. Bro. When I shoot my gun, I want to hear the

bad my years. I want there's nobody's shooting bad. We're not hiding or nothing. Like. They thought the gun range was so boring. Yeah, and my cousin was like, well, you know what, I'd go on that side there. We'll just have some fun. And I'm not. You can't go over there for like. And I don't know if they were player or for real, but they did not have fun, Like this ain't real life, dude, when your shoes somebody is not like this and the target don't even move.

It just goes like this, and it just goes like yeah, so I understand. Yeah, they did not like it, understand but man like taking it, taking it really serious, like like I doing a lot of other people, dude, Like we are serious about our firearms. And I don't work around with him. I don't play with him. I don't none of that ship. If I'm going to the gun range, I'm going to the gun range. But other than that,

I'm not going to pull my weapon. I'm not none of you don't have a gun, then I'm gonna be mad at you again, Like I don't get that motherfucker you have to have a firearm and everybody he's telling me that, and I'm feeling because it's a different it's a different it's a different it's a different Houston than it was back then. It's a way different Houston. You know why you got people moving in from out of town.

You got little kids is growing up to the uh uh going through what they're going through, and they, you know, getting them guns out of their parents room and ship. They're going and shooting up schools and clubs, and they brag about it. They say that I don't want to fight, but I'll shoot. I don't know how to fight, like like it's a cool thing now for these young kids. I hear I'm talking and my son is thirty six. I got a thirty four year old, thirty three old.

So they're like, man, that these school young teach man. Yeah, I didn't see. They ain't. They ain't trying to hear none of that ship. They don't. Yeah, they don't. They don't cares. Reloded podcast will be right back after the street. How was a young one? You give me give me one around ten years, ten years old young one, ten years old? What was it like growing up in your household? Man? Really, it's uh, it wasn't good. Like my parents were divorced

at an early age. I went to seventeen schools. We'll get we were getting dropped off. I went to a lot of scale like me. Yeah, we got dropped off here and there. Uh, my dad took custody. My mom disappeared for about three years. They said. They kept telling us everywhere that she passed and she passed in an accident, like what, so me and my brother would cry, and then she shows up like a year later, you know,

I mean four years later, she pops up. But my dad was a single dad, but he was a worker, so he would just drop us off that different people's houses and he was there for a few days. And that's when I try to go back with my mom. My mom. We lived off telephone roll bro damn okay, my mom. My mom flagged down the car. It was me and my mom, but she flag down the car and she got in the car. So we're living in those apartments right there by six ten and telephone or

most it's a little apartment. It's a little those little apartments are the ones weigh in the back, the ones right right there by telephone, right by the beer joints. Because we lived in the corner apartment, so I could see the ladies walking. So when I saw that, he's on the right side. Yeah, he's on the he's on we're going south by. I'm on the rights of the store.

All the little Chinese places stuff, and then there some apartments right there, you know what right past uh what just that little place of the tele awinky, I mean a little bit. So when I saw that, I was like man, And then my friends started making funny and school my dad's head. You saw your mom and you this or whatever. So that's when I started, Uh, I started, you know, cranking cars. Hold on before you go. Just for clarity, your mom flagged the car down. You said

she got in the car. Did you get in with her? No? No, like we saw her through the window. She said, I gotta go to work, and then and then she disappeared. Yeah, and she got in the car with a man and came back and she had food and stuff, and we thought it was cool. We thought it was like a friend whatever. So we thought we thought it was cool. And then later on when I you know, the school people started you know what I'm saying, man, your mom,

you know they were telling me. And then that's when it really started, like like damn like so then that's when I started cranking cars. I found a little spot of magnolia and I were taking a car there that give me three or four d and uh, I told my mom, you ain't gonna go with nobody no more. I was like eleven years old, worried about night bill and pain. Yeah, well we all did. I didn't learned until I was like thirteen. He take screw driver, sticking

in the winter pool, win to back, holding up. Everyone was strew driving in the college. Put them break that pain and pull the pin back and break the strewing college. Yep, yeah, do that. And one dude was, I know you'll be stealing cars. And this dude piece me on so much, but he would always funk with me because he I mean he did, had nothing to do with it. We didn't even funk with him or nothing, but he just I know, you cart the man, I know this is

what did and you put steal my car. And he just can't funk with me so bad that he would take the tires off his car sometimes and do crazy ship. So I got my cousin to go steal the record, and he came and picked the ship up and took it. Fuck you like man like that. It was no happiness. It was no did I join the army. When I was seventeen and I joined the army, I took off. That's when I came back and I was able to say no and stand up for myself. And people weren't gonna,

I mean, hurt me, no more or nothing. Because when I was a kid man, people did some fun up ship. So my cousin Mario saved me. My cousin Mario he passed away. Man, that fucker. You know, he's like, hey man, he saw me one morning. He's like, what's up where you're coming from? I said, with my dad left me over there, and he goes, did they you know? He like, did they do? Not? Your ship with? You know what? That's like okay, And he went over there and beat

up the whole family. He beat up the mom, the dad, and sisters and brother. He beat up like seven people, my cousin and then everything kind of stopped. Everything kind of but it was kind of weird it's like the whole block kind of new. I don't know, it was just kind of weird. But I was always in different spots, so I never I was always a new kid. I was always Yeah, it wasn't it wasn't good my mind. My childhood wasn't good. Bro, Yeah you know what you know?

I was like, uh like, but others were way bad. You know, I mean way words because I have friends that were really going through some ship. But I mean, I don't know, man, I made it. I'm good. It made you stronger to one, it made me more of a When I had my kids, I was more observing of everything. Like I was like, yeah, that's why I've never been fucked up. You don't never seen any fun up. I've never I don't drink, I don't get I ain't never seen me like funked up. I'll see me buzzing whatever.

But I know who's around me. I know where I'm ad, I know where I'm going, who's taking care of me? What was on point? I don't care what time it is, but four or five, six and the one good one yep, Like you know, I mean, I don't rest for I get to my room. Everything's locked up then I rest, but I was always on point man, always paying attention to stuff. I'm still like that. I'm still like that. That's why when comics I saw some comics on here and they were talking about, like I don't like to

watch other I don't. I don't watch comedy. I don't want to be influenced. I'm like, man, how how sad is that to be a comedian? And like I love comedy, like I love to sit down and watch comedy man, And I watched Mike Gaps in d L and I get to watch you know, Bruce, Bruce and Ardez, and like I love watching comedy, like I don't. That's not gonna do nothing with my stories or it just sounds weird to hear comics say that, like I don't watch comedy,

I don't want to be influenced. I'm like, well, you know what, bro, if you don't watch comedy and you're not influenced by nothing, when you get on stage, there's a ninety percent chance that I know people that kind of do the same kind of material that you're doing. So that doesn't even help. By not watching comedy, you think you oh, like na fucker because I was doing, you know, black crowds and white crowds and Mexican crowds,

and then corporate gigs. So I saw the comics. I saw, you know, comics just doing just different races doing kind of like the same joke. So I saw kind of yeah, yeah, yeah, and it was but I stayed away from a whole lot of that stuff. You mean, I would see people arguing stuff, and my, my, my philosophy and comic is like, man, to be a white comic is so hard to be a white to be a white comic, Oh my god, yeah, bro,

you're a white comic. No, no, no, That's when I started learning about comedy, because it's like, to be a white comic, you gotta be like really smart. You can't offend nobody, you can't. You gotta be you know, you can't talk about the hood of your upbringing or nothing like. They have to be creative and don't think about what these other two thousand white comedians are writing about. And and me, I'd go on stage like they we got roaches, the flight I roaches, and and crowd will go crazy.

They cut our lights all that, they said, no lightsing, And I was getting standing knows I'm on food stamps, but I'm barbecuing every weekend. How fucking genius. So I was like, damn, like I could just come up here and talk about my life. And that's why I've never wrote down a joke. I've never white. He can't talk about life, right, not like us. None of about going being poor, being raised by I mean single parents, are growing up in the hood. And she's like, that's not

many and white white comics can't really talk about other races. Well, they also, you know, yeah, and that's because you know, they're part of the dominant society and they and they can't. They can't talk about being um, I guess uh violated in any kind of way because you know, uh, by by other groups or whatever, because they have it. So they can't speak on they can't speak to that type of stuff. You're about to look up something speaking on speaking speaking of the race. Uh. I like to always

do this on every every Monday. I'd like to talk about some some racial stuff. Uh, a history of racial injustice. Man. So I'm gonna let you read what happened on the thirtieth of August. What years that on the first day of school, mobs of white segregationist guard guard Mansfield High School and use weapons to prevent black children from registering for school. Well that's cold blood, Yeah, that's it's just a it's just a it's a history of racial injustice.

And this is every day of a year, every month, every month, you know, every week you can find some ship going on with us and racial uh injustices, you know. And I love to read these on Mondays so people can really understand why I am like I am because this ship has not stopped. And that was nineteen or eighteen? What was it? What was the year? Let me look at it and make sure look nineteen in nineteen fifty six,

willim And still going on. Why you spoke about your mom uh uh going through her situation at any point did that make you better towards her? You was just just trying to have a relationship. I thought my mom was a soldier. Bro. Yeah, man, my mom was doing all this and feed us and take care of us. And I told brother, it's over, man, Like I got some TVs, I paint the lights and bought the furniture and the care of her. And my mom just passed

Willy November last year. She just passed you. I still haven't. It still hasn't, you know. I mean, it doesn't hit me yet. It still hasn't. Were y'all close before it was just me and my mama because my mom was single, so I was always at her house. I would take it on my should and she was she loved comedy. She laughing at you, Oh my god, that she used

to love a comedy man. But sometimes she would get buzzed out cause my son's out of giving her Hennessey and they'd be a comic that, you know, young comics that I give a chance to go up to form. And he wasn't doing good in my mom, Hey, he's not funning me on, He's not funny. And this is this is a like at the at the showcasey small girl. Yeah, it's not funny. Yeah, because my mom. My mom later on owned she owned on Laura copy on fifty nine and Laura copy between Jensen. She owned the beer joined.

There was two little cantinas here. She owned. She was she owned. Yeah, about to s somebody saying something like that died right there, man, dude, you're paying them. You're gonna pay him. That ain't the worst of it. When it's when they hear her, when they say, hey, man, I heard your mom. What was on stage? I'm sorry, Oh to the mom, Like you gotta respect that. But they're not funny me who they're not funny? Look that people, they're not left me. Everybody. Everybody's going to the restroom

and smoking. Yeah, she was really and she supported me to my whole comedy career. Bron checks her planes and I mean, I'm gonna get a warmth and you gotta go to the show. I'm gonna. Yeah. My mom was. I mean, it was just always being my mom. I mean no, no, Did you have a relationship with your father at any point? Yeah? Yeah, we uh my dad my dad got u actually got you know, got married and he started settling down a little bit. But he was,

you know, my dad was the worker. When when my step mom in thirteen was passing away, she had because that was my year I was set up with like that. I was gonna make one point two mil. We already had everything worked out, and my mom got My stepmom got a tumor. Yeah, I mean, so they put a pig too, so I had to feed her. So I stayed there for nine months with her with her my dad because my dad did him how to work the machine.

He didn't know anything about medications or anything. So I had to Uh, I had to do that for nine months. So I turned down at one point two meals and it piste off a whole lot of people and agents and managers and club owners and promoters and yeah. And they didn't say, okay, man, well we'll never work together again. He goes, you make enough money to pay somebody, now you can. I'm like, my mom doesn't want nobody, man, like she wants me. Like I don't know what to do. Man.

She's been my stepmother for thirty five years. Bro, She's always looked out for me. And and then I got to the point where I was like, man, funk y'all. Then like because they started like, you know, people think that they can buy you, they can own you. Like you tell them you you pour out like stuff like look, my mom did this for me. My mom did this for me and did this for me. And they're like, okay, well that's good. We're trying to move forward. Now that's

what mom's do. My mom did send she for me, and and like they didn't understand how So I turned out a bunch of ships. Then they realized like, yeah, well it wants about family. They're like they like, wants about family, wants going home, wants married to Houston. He never l A. They wanted me to live in l A. WILLF. Smith wanted me so bad, bro, they kept off from me one one fifty and two fifty and three fifty and I'm like, man, I'm not living in l A. I'm not living I couldn't live in l A. I

didn't want to. It was bad. It was a bunch of fake ship dude comments over here I had and know we're here it over here and because I got to do all three markets and it was just all fucked up. It was like there was no respect, no love for each other. No. Now it's cool man, the older comments and love you bro, love you Bruce Browd love you well, I love you like it's it's a cool thing now, like people starting to show in love and respect to each other. We say, man, love you man,

I love you man. Rodney being a love you Bro, I love you too, bow like Terry Grows Dave lost a love you man Like It's a good thing because back for a while, it was just just man like straight, just bad ship. Bro. Do you think it's difficult to be all team of Committee? Nah? If you're funny, Nah, I just don't like one. They go straight. That's why, like the Latin Kings and stuff like that, people ask me about that. So like, I don't want to be I just want to be funny. I don't want to

be a Latino King. They want me to do a Latino show and Latino this, and like you know what I mean, like people, BT did everything for me, Rushwan al Freeman. Al Freeman hooked me up with Ron Wilson, who took care of me when I was on probation and if it was yeah, man, if it wasn't for Al Freeman in this game, all Freeman made Ron Wilson

go see me and said this dudes got talent. And then Ron Wilson looked out for me and that's gonna be BT picked me up and see it was easier for me to get on BT the most Houston comics because they love diversity. So oh man, if we put a little biscuit on there, you know what I mean they told me. I mean people told me a BT like no, no, well we need Latinos. I'm like, but I'm gonna have a good ship though, like I'm still funny,

because yeah, it doesn't matter. We just need like you know, I'm like what like I said, okay, so I make them remember that at the film two times because I went out there and did a a real set custom and every day I was like, no, I see that lady backstage. We don't game that I do, and this and that, and then they gave me another shot and then I didn't clean but the crowd loved me so much so that I rocked it. I changed a whole lot of stuff. What's what's the most difficult thing that

you've had to face being a comedian? Just leaving all the time, missing my grandkids birthdays and graduation days and special days and yeah, like when my son goes, hey, Dad, can you be here for man? And I gotta say no. That's why I kind of step back a little bit, you know. I mean, like I just kind of like I get to choose some pig shows now, and like they don't. So I got a manager, man, I don't. I don't really have like a manager. I got people

to work for me, but I'm the boss. I'm the one that you know says the prices, and you know, we need two flights, two rooms, we need this, and then and I get to do all that now, and I get to work when I want, because you know, managers want to make ten percent get sometimes thirty four. Because he looked out for me and it was just

me and him. But like, yeah, for a while, I was like when I was real hot, and it was like I had shows like every fucking weekend and then during the week and this, and then I'm like, hold on, bro, like how much mone do you want to make? Because, man, Willie, when I got into comedy, I'm thinking if I make five hundred a week. When I first started doing comedy, if I could make five hundred a week talking, I thought that was it because I was doing scaffold and

doing other stuff making three fifty. I'm like, man, I get to do talk for thirty minutes five hundred bucks and they give you chicken tenders and free colds and ship. I said, leak, bro, man, you ever get those chicken tenders? Because I think got chicken tenders at every comedy spot. I stopped a lot of commenttion doing that. I said, look at me. Man, look, I'm fifty five. I just went and got tested. Everything's good. My kidney, my liver,

my lungs. You're like, do you're healthy, cholester on, no sugar, you have nothing? Like what do you do? It's like, no, it's what I don't do. I don't do this. I don't party.

Like the man, it's like yep, and they make a soup out of it and put corn and pinions and limit and cilanslo and yeah, the butter and all that stuff. Man like nah, oh you're not Mexican. Mexican. I'm like no,

Like my uncle's they you mean forty something, they're gone cold and canders, I mean they were they were done. Yeah. Can you speak Spanish? Yeah, as a matter of fact, I didn't learn I didn't even learn English. And I was like six. Yeah, yeah, I'm very doing in Spanish. And you know, it's funny because when I first started

doing comedy. People knew I was from Texas right away and they knew, you know what I mean, like it speaks Spanish. And I told vance, like, how do they know that? It's like the way you talk, like, man, I don't know how to exit, Like you should know how to speak Spanish, but I've never heard you speak, but your way, I said. I went to Vera Cruz. That that's like a college like Austin, like a college, and I studied to be I was gonna be like a lawyer in Spanish because I wanted to go live

with my family over there. And they were kind of wealthy. They had stores and you know, chauffeurs and maids and everything. So when is this This is in Vera Cruz. Where is that? That's a It's along the coastline. If you see like Brownsville, like on the map or on the coast, you'll see just go a little bit further you'll see it'll say a better Cruiz.

I went there for about it about nine months. Yeah, we got evicted. Yeah, we moved over by Milby, so I went to Milby. Well nine months is a school year, so yeah, it was pretty much and it was it was cool. It was different because when I was going to the Mexican schools and the basketball games, you know,

they were they were cool, they were fun. But then when I went to Smiley basketball game and the whole gym was full, because you know, Melby and him, like, the gyms would never get maxed out full. It would just be the parents or whatever. And I went to Smiley and the whole gym was full and the band would come out, and then I saw people slamming and doing alleys and ship. I was like, oh my god, school spear and stuff. Yeah, like man, and then they

were cool. I mean there because it was only like seven eight Mexicans, so you know, I mean some cool friends. I tried to play football for a little while, but I try to play defense, man, but I got hit so hard, you know, I mean, David Raybond is a joke about that because I tried to play football.

Let me ask you a question. So when when, like, how do you feel about um uh, that that thin margin between comics taking it too far? And and and and the sensitivity of of of you know people, you know what I mean? Man, is it

a line that that's drawing? Like, man, you can't say that shit about No, I think you gotta be that line. You create your own line, because there's stuff that that comedy though, no, no, it is, but there's stuff like that I won't touch on because there's some stuff that's funny and then there's some stuff that'll just make you mad and make you go or whatever. So I wanted to be funny so I didn't. I didn't. I never

like like litok, Corey Hokem. Corey Holkem says some ship on stage that I will never say, but funny makes me laugh so hard. Oh my god. Huh, but you can't wait for if we ever have Corey Hokem on the get we go, we got, we got, we got it man. And Corey is so cool. He's a bad mother.

He used to go up and room, get a room and just a rock that goes, man, That motherfucker's funny. I used to look at him and be like, I don't know why the world don't know about him? And you know, I

mean but Corey didn't know. Like they offered me as soon as I went to l A Jay Leno. All the fuckers wanted me. They all wanted me, but I didn't want to. I'm like, hey, man, i've been doing comedy a little bit. I'm not you know what, I almost didn't almost quit comedy because I thought I needed a g D. Somebody goes, yeah, you're not gonna do colleges.

But do you ever have any regrets about not taking on some of those gigs and making that big leap to l A When my mom was at that facility.

That's what I think. Like, man, I wonder if if I would have did that, I would have more money, but then I wouldn't have been able to take care of my mom, like like my would have probably been a greater regret, like even not going out there because my rich friends paid.

You listen to different you listen to all different types of comics, like I listened to all different

types of music. Yeah, that's fun, man. It is when here's somebody when you can actually read somebody else's canvas. Yeah, you know what I mean, because you know, before I left to the army, it was seven nine the Rock or ninety seven nine Rock Rocks, Rocks in the morning and then one oh one everybody was listening to that stuff.

And when I went and I took basic training in South Carolina, I heard Whodini for the first that the feast come out of that night and five minutes of funk this they like, oh and they never be here the cassette.
