0:51 started to it just started it just started it started with a big fire yes huge fire the fire is giving you an existential crisis well I think between that and then like everything right now is political and I'm like shut up yeah shut so many years of that I was getting tired of it I like politics but I was getting tired of it last year yeah I do feel bad for this generation cuz in our generation I felt like I had 20 years of zero politics yeah so I feel like I just got to form and become my own person and just live amongst my own neighborhood my own Street which probably affects you way more than what you think the nation how the affects you but like nowadays if you're like a kid or whatever growing up it's like what are your stances you're like I don't even know if I could be friends with you and they're like in fifth grade like what the f it literally

1:41 like that yeah I've heard stories of people being like yeah I'm not even friends with them anymore and I'm like Jesus Christ this is so crazy you like Trump you're problematic is it affecting you in your like close friend group like that or is it like more from like the outside no I feel like yeah I feel like just like I don't open my phone as frequently because everything is like a debate everything is something yeah yeah it's just like constant constant Tik tok's gone now it's not and it's back and everyone's fighting all the time we're only we're only a couple weeks in man like oh man it's a lot it's just it's too much material to work with for your stand up oh my God so much crisis like did you like break down crying or no no it's just like it I it it feels loud you know like everything just feels loud and I just want like peace and quiet sometimes you just got to get out like light a fire right

2:31 H camera you did it yo real talk though there was um a billboard for Jamie Fox's um new special that he put out his like onean show and it was him with a flamethrower what in Hollywood yeah I have the picture they took down they took down the ████ but at the height of the fires like the sky is red behind the billboard it was ████ insane yeah did you watch it I didn't really like it I watched it it's like I I call it a oneman show I think it's a onean show cuz I watched the first 30 minutes of it is it the one where he's kind of explaining how grateful he is yes right so like in the beginning I was this is ████ dope like he almost died he's very grateful to come back and he just wants to thanks the fans I'm okay cool this is awesome he's getting all this out now I'm ready for the real Jamie and then it just keeps going for another 30 minutes of how he keeps thinking the

3:22 fans and how he almost died and then I was just like how long is this going to go for and after 30 minutes I was I should probably watch something else now yeah said if you if you go into watching like it's going to be a comedy show you might be disappointed cuz it looks like a Netflix special whenever artists create something for them it always sucks all the time they're like this one's for me you know it's time now that I want to do something special and I want to really show my Mastery and then like you're like bro stick to your ████ gimmicks cuz that's Mastery right there and I'm a Hu I'm I'm a huge fan too huge huge fan of his too when Adam Sandler came out with that movie funny people there's nothing funny about that movie at all it was so bad it was so ████ bad go back to Happy Gilmore to but yeah what was your take on it on the Jimmy Fox one yeah I didn't look at

4:12 it like it was a standup comedy special that's not what it gave it gave like one man show if uh was you know it was like him involving his daughter and stuff which I was like oh that's cool that you're at the level that you can do that yeah um and I think I same like we know him for certain things but also like I think it's harder when you get to a certain level right like I'm I'm sure for you guys like I'm sure there was some point that people were like go back to doing your sketches and stuff and all the ████ you want to put that ████ back on I'm like dude I'm 40 years old what the ████ I want you to put that already yeah oh God damn I can't be wearing that ████ at 40 years old what the hell I can he still look like 18 and a half huh yeah he's young L yeah yeah yeah sure but yeah so B was waiting for Jamie Fox to be uh Wanda again remember from in oh my God imagine that imagine asking him to do that like waiting I just want to do this

5:02 normal stop talking thing imagine you were yelling that ████ he's just booing all the time boo I heard like I'm curious about watching it because a lot of people were telling me that they they were just crying during it really it it was very moving you could tell how grateful he is's flipping part's like boring no it was very very to the jokes bro did you cry watching it no damn absolutely not at any point did he do a Ray Charles impression I think he did he did he did Impressions that was a good movie that's I have the director's cut for that what was what's in the director's cut he's the Ray Charles he goes like this I know he's Ray Charles but like what's in it that's not in them it's all the stuff that Ray Charles sees like a like a daredevil his eyes his eyes so it's just dark the whole

5:52 time just sounds it's a weird brag I got the director's cut of Ray Charles director cut what do you have a DVD Blu-ray somewhere here I don't know it's here too that's weird well you know I sto a lot of my personal belongings here okay but yeah I heard it was really good I'm going to watch it yeah watch it I'm not going to waste my time so enthusiastic yeah did you know it was like a oneman show like kind of like untraditional uh going into it no I didn't know what to expect I had no idea what to expect he just had that hiat for like you know a couple years I think and then um you know that's that news story everyone's like oh my God they cloned him he's dead what do you think about that yeah what do you think happened to him I don't know man I don't know I'm a

6:42 conspiracy theorist low key I cat said he's a clone now is that what he said what I heard I heard Diddy poisoned him where is he at though cuz 2024 was crazy he popped that year off he just he just come out again yeah he just had a stand up and in the in the standup cat said that that Jamie's in that special it's a clone cuz you got new freckles and stuff that's a Telltale sign though the reases me so wild yeah yeah apparently Kanye is a CL Freeman freckles that he didn't have before yeah I don't remember those you know I think Jamie Fox is probably one of the only last remaining like real Entertainer that can do so many different things really well like music acting singing all the he's a true like Entertainer funny yeah cuz now it's

7:32 like everyone's a one trick pony or they just they just skilled at like one thing if that it's just or they're marketed well or they or they try to perform it before they get really good at it yeah he like honed his craft and like all those things that's why Diddy wanted to kill him cuz Diddy's like I'm not talented but you are I'm not talented yeah well he's like my talent is in other things like blackmailing people yeah yeah that's a talent yeah he's really good at it human trafficking mhm A1 A1 I to parties and I record them having sex have you done any um have you done any standup sets while while you in your existential crisis yeah actually uh recently I feel like I've just like talked about it like you know I think right now we just need need to be together as just people as the human

8:23 race because there's so much Division I don't think I remember like I grew up in a time like I grew up with the internet I'm as old as the internet so I there was a time where it wasn't as connected and now there's so much access to so much information and then now there's their own like every corner of the internet has its own Nook of you know communities and extremist and I didn't have that growing up and now it's accessible and so I'm seeing the division on like a different level on a global level um and it's really crazy to see like misinformation go out and it be consumed like it's real um yeah so I don't know I'm like I have done some stuff you know and equated it to different things that have been going on in my mind I feel like I feel it's like overwhelming responsibility but at the

9:14 same time I'm so tired yeah cuz that's cool you still like I'm not going to save the ████ world ████ that's cool you can still get up there and you're not just like I've had it I don't want to go anymore I don't want to laugh I don't want you to laugh either no I haven't reach any of that stuff or is it more about stuff that you're going through on stage it's it's yeah I actually did talk about it I was actually surprised at the response that it got um cuz I wasn't going to like post the set it was like a 10minute set of me just talk it was like the first week that the fires were happening like towards the end of that first week so it was like really crazy and I had a show and I was like damn I don't want to ████ do this show damn I really was like this is and on the way to the show I saw a massive fire on the highway um and I was like ████ like literally the world it feels like it's ending how how do you make make people laugh now right exactly

10:05 and then I did the show in Hollywood and it was so surreal it felt like a ████ black mirror episode like there was a disco ball and it was like dark and like club like but everybody's like in dresses and sequins and stuff like in really like they stepped out I was like this is weird likeed yeah while ████ on fire um and I legit did not go up with a set or anything but um like more freestyle type of thing it 100% was I just like spoke from the heart I actually like I've been through natural disaster I was in uh I grew up in New York and Hurricane Sandy had hit and that was like that was crazy like the power was out for days we had cold water yeah um and like remembering that and then also at the same time hearing people from you know different parts of the country say like oh you

10:57 know LA's on fire because of because it's an evil town and you know the the Eat the Rich and they deserve it and I'm not gonna lie like there was a moment I was like oh yeah you know it's in a really wealthy neighborhood they'll be fine but then as more information starts to come out you're like oh wait no these are real people regular working people and some of them probably can't rebuild their houses and that's really ████ sad um and so to hear that noise at the same time I'm like damn like where have we gone as a society like ████ I don't know I got a lot of love in my heart so when I hear a lot of crazy ████ I'm like damn we that hateful as a people yeah I think we're that desensitized yeah I think so too cuz I think more people outside of La cared more about the fire than people that are local yeah for sure you think so yeah I think so

11:47 cuz we're also like we get a fire every summer and it burns a certain part of town down all the time uh-huh yep and people got so much problems of their own that when they see people they think are well better off than they they are having problems it's like that's nothing it is cool seeing communities come together you know people like getting water food clothes all that putting it all together so they can like people that need need stuff I kind of feel like people in La had more love for Laha after it burned down than their own City yeah absolutely like I don't see anybody going like hey let's ████ donate to people in the Palisades cuz everyone's like why they're way richer than mea yeah that's it feels Weir ala is a little bit different cuz you have generational families there they're like I can't even afford the own house that I that I that I live in people showed up for Alena I think people didn't show up

12:37 that much for Pacific Palisades you know just because I I feel like people showed up like people helped out as much as they can but in scale like people there was like tons of help for out of the yeah and I also wonder how many like you know richer Wella and or celebrities that lost their homes are like going to start a gofund me Mel Gibson was his house was burning while he was on Joe Rogan damn what but that's not the same as a GoFundMe yeah and it's harder to help him like if someone needs clothes you give him clothes he's like dude my Rolls-Royce burnt down you can't be like oh let me help you out I don't even got a Rolls-Royce so it's harder to kind of it's hard to help up yeah it's like it's like a my third house that part that's the part that was weird that's the part that was weird is that like there's there multiple homes man it's like for real that's kind of yeah not at all like they deserve it

13:29 but it's just tough to help out but then it sucks to be looped in with that like it sucks to be a generational family that just happens to live amongst that but you are not that but then you are dealing with the same loss and then everyone looks at you and goes I'm not going to help you you're rich but it's like no I just I just live next to this guy yeah I just got a cheap condo next to that guy me and Ryan were talking about this yesterday and I was telling him that one of my buddy's his house that burned down he was there to like check out the like the the aftermath and he saw like these Chinese people taking pictures outside of their house and like just standing and posing of like just a ████ chimney and like nothing no and they're and they're just like and they're literally taking their kids are there they're posing with the kids they're posing like two at a time solo shot what the ████ I swear Chinese

14:21 people are born autistic that's what I'm saying like and but but I watched it and I'm like bro those are those are my people like that's like we've seen this before and then they go to a neighbor's house whose house wasn't burned down and it's like this Mexican dude and he's like watering he's like cleaning his house you know and they and then the lady goes up to and starts taking pictures and he turns and he looks like and he's like he doesn't know what to do so he's like at one point he post yeah he post he post and then like he was like he was like oh and he was kind of realizing what the ████ was happening and then she was like oh and then she left he's filming this from his H like from from his driveway dude Chinese people weird man that's that's wild beh apologize yeah apologize on behalf of our apologize all the time it's wild but it's innocent they don't even like it is innocent they don't even like post it or try to like extort it or do something

15:12 weird you know they just want it for their mon Mento yeah just like somehow go when I was in America I saw the house is BN look and then they're showing their friends that's literally what they're doing I was I remember having a photo shoot with my home girl Tiff and she we were like uh I had this like old school car at the time it like it was lined up with tree palm trees so it was like a real La shoot um and this uh Chinese couple just came I don't know where they came from but they're like can we can we and I was like you want me to take a photo of you and they're like no with you I was like okay so now now these pictures exist somewhere in China they just wanted to be in your photo yeah they wanted to be in my photos um so now I have this like they they we took pictures on their phone um I hope I get connected uh follow me I'm on J hon SHO red no Tagle dude

17:44 driving on the highway and then fire totally random wild and I think like people from outside of like even just big cities or just other states didn't think that that was real cuz I used to say that all the time and I I would film fires when I lived in downtown people are like like dude there's a fire every day I'm like no multiple days yeah and I'm like no I'm not exaggerating this is like multiple per day you can just see them yeah there's always like an RV on fire cuz a homeless man was smoking crack there's logic behind it it just happens dude on the like a hillside it's just burning yeah it's just burning there's logic to an RV on fire cuz the homeless man was smoking crack in it though little logic there yeah yeah I actually followed that he just gave you the story that's why no my bad me on the way back from the UFC on Saturday we're driving back from I I guess Englewood and we're driving through there was another giant fire that was set and some fire trucks

18:35 were literally going up to the fire and putting it out it was like 11:00 at night you're like what the ████ is happening and you look on the news and there's even more fires it's just like our City's burning at least it gives awareness to people that like that's an actual thing that happens and it's a problem you know we got a lot of arson going on yeah yeah that's what they say it's like a it's an insane percentage is just started by somebody yep homeless people just a just a guy just a guy or lady homeless people with matches yeah yeah there was the 10 suspects like during this time where they uh there was 10 suspects of all the people that were setting off fires in La during the wildfires and most of them you look Usual Suspects and it's like Mexican dude white dude black dude and it just kept going like that and then there was one old Latina lady like looked like a

19:25 little saw that one yeah and you're like dude she's out of place like what the ████ was she cuz the rest of them they all look crazy and you just look at her you're like she probably runs the whole operation probably like Abita yeah yeah she just looked out of place and you're like dude this is this is La I guess maybe they had to throw one in so that it don't look like they're just is Dei arson
